Inspection Scope The inspectors performed a direct inspection of construction activities associated with ITAAC Number 3.3.00.07aa (789). The inspectors used the following NRC inspection procedures (IPs)/sections to perform this inspection:
65001.09-02.01 - Physical Separation of Cables
65001.09-02.02 - Attributes of Electrical Cable installation
65001.09-02.03 - Documentation
65001.09-02.04 - Problem Identification and Resolution
65001.A.02.02 - Installation Records Review
4 The inspectors inspected raceways inside the containment building. The rooms inspected were the steam generator operating deck (room 11501), upper pressurizer compartment (room 11503), and lower automatic depressurization system (ADS) valve area (room 11603). The inspectors conducted walkdowns of the raceways inside the rooms to verify separation between raceways that route Class 1E cables of different divisions, and between raceways that route Class 1E cables and raceways that route non-Class 1E cables. During the walkdown, the inspectors verified that the raceways and cables were identified by the appropriate color code and the division cables were routed in their respective raceways. The inspectors also walked down cables installed in trays to verify that cable fill design requirements were met, as applicable.
The inspectors reviewed applicable construction specifications, installation procedures, written instructions, drawings, work packages, and quality control inspection reports to verify raceways that route Class 1E cables were installed in accordance with design requirements. The inspectors reviewed work packages, test and inspection records, and cable pull tickets to confirm the non-Class 1E cables needed to meet the ITAAC requirements of Appendix C of the COL were installed at the time of ITAAC verification.
For the raceways installed in these rooms, the inspectors verified the size, material, and style were as specified in design documents and work procedures. The inspectors verified raceway supports were located at points specified in approved instructions and that maximum distance between supports were not exceeded. Inspectors also verified fittings and clamps were installed according to work procedures. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the licensees corrective actions for issues entered into the corrective action program (CAP) to verify issues were identified, evaluated, and corrected.
The inspectors reviewed ITAAC Technical Report SV3-1100-ITR-CTMTIR, Revision 0, SV3-1100-ITR-CTMT, Revision 0 and supporting documentation to determine if the licensees inspection results inside containment confirmed the following:
Class 1E electrical cables, and communication cables associated with only one division, and the raceways that route these cables inside containment are identified by the appropriate color code.
Class 1E electrical cables and communication cables associated with only one division were routed in raceways assigned to the same division and there were no other safety division electrical cables in a raceway assigned to a different division.
Separation between raceways that route Class 1E cables of different divisions, and between raceways that route Class 1E cables and raceways that route non-Class 1E cables met separation requirements inside containment.
Where minimum separation distances were not met inside containment, circuits were run in enclosed raceways or barriers.

65001.09-02.03 - Documentation
65001.09-02.04 - Problem Identification and Resolution
65001.A.02.02 - Installation Records Review The inspectors inspected raceways inside the containment building. The rooms inspected were the steam generator operating deck (room 11501), upper pressurizer compartment (room 11503), and lower ADS valve area (room 11603). The inspectors conducted walkdowns of the raceways inside the rooms to verify separation between raceways that route Class 1E cables of different divisions, and between raceways that route Class 1E cables and raceways that route non-Class 1E cables. During the walkdown, the inspectors verified that the raceways and cables were identified by the appropriate color code and the division cables were routed in their respective raceways. The inspectors also walked down cables installed in trays to verify that cable fill design requirements were met, as applicable.
The inspectors reviewed applicable construction specifications, installation procedures, written instructions, drawings, work packages, and quality control inspection reports to verify raceways that route Class 1E cables were installed in accordance with design requirements. The inspectors reviewed work packages, test and inspection records, and cable pull tickets to confirm the non-Class 1E cables needed to meet the ITAAC requirements of Appendix C of the COL were installed at the time of ITAAC verification.
For the raceways installed in these rooms, the inspectors verified the size, material, and style were as specified in design documents and work procedures. The inspectors verified raceway supports were located at points specified in approved instructions and that maximum distance between supports were not exceeded.
15 Inspectors also verified fittings and clamps were installed according to work procedures. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the licensees corrective actions for issues entered into the CAP to verify issues were identified, evaluated, and corrected.
The inspectors reviewed ITAAC Technical Report SV3-1100-ITR-CTMTIR, Revision 0, SV3-1100-ITR-CTMT, Revision 0 and supporting documentation to determine if the licensees inspection results inside containment confirmed the following:
Class 1E electrical cables, and communication cables associated with only one division, and the raceways that route these cables inside containment are identified by the appropriate color code.
Class 1E electrical cables and communication cables associated with only one division were routed in raceways assigned to the same division and there were no other safety division electrical cables in a raceway assigned to a different division.
Separation between raceways that route Class 1E cables of different divisions, and between raceways that route Class 1E cables and raceways that route non-Class 1E cables met separation requirements inside containment.
Where minimum separation distances were not met inside containment, circuits were run in enclosed raceways or barriers.

35007-A16.04 - Inspection Requirements and Guidance
35007-A16.04.02 - Inspection of QA Program Implementation
- a. Inspection Scope The inspection team conducted multiple activities in order assess the Vogtle Units 3 and 4 safety conscious work environment (SCWE), as part of the annual CAP inspection. The team interviewed seventy-three individuals from across Units 3 and 4, including licensee and contractor staff for Cyber Security; ITAAC; Initial Test Program (ITP); Maintenance; Field Engineering; and Richmond County Constructors electrician groups and interviewed senior level managers across the organization. The NRC inspectors reviewed Policy 701, Vogtle 3 and 4 Employee Concerns Program, and Employee Concern Program (ECP) Work Instructions. The team interviewed ECP personnel to understand how the ECP is being implemented for the construction and SNC organizations at Vogtle 3 and 4. The team also interviewed US Alliance contractor personnel responsible for the 2022 SCWE survey.
Additionally, the team reviewed a sample of ECP files, work environment assessments (WEAs) from 2021 and 2022, condition reports (CRs) and technical evaluations (TEs) associated with SCWE concerns, and the Vogtle 2022 SCWE survey to determine if the licensee provided adequate resolution in accordance with the ECP policy, SCWE policy, and CAP procedure ND-AD-002, Nuclear Development Corrective Action Program. The team reviewed meeting minutes from the Nuclear Safety Culture Monitoring Panel meetings from the first quarter of 2022 to determine if the minutes captured the items discussed during the panel meetings and inputs were used from the monitoring panels to assess safety culture at the site.
Assessment The NRCs Final Safety Culture Policy Statement [U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Final Safety Culture Policy Statement, Federal Register, Vol. 76, No.
114, June 14, 2011, pp. 34773-34778] applies to all NRC licensees, applicants, and vendors. It defines Nuclear Safety Culture as, the core values and behaviors resulting from a collective commitment by leaders and individuals to emphasize safety over competing goals to ensure protection of people and the environment. The policy statement discusses nine traits of a positive safety culture. These include, but are not limited to, leadership safety values and actions, work processes, problem identification and resolution, and an environment for raising concerns. As stated in the Final Safety Culture Policy Statement, [a] trait, in this case, is a pattern of thinking, feeling, and behaving that emphasizes safety, particularly in goal conflict situations, e.g.,
production, schedule, and the cost of the effort versus safety. Under each of the traits are subcategories referred to as the attributes of a healthy safety culture [NUREG-2165, Safety Culture Language, dated March 2014 ADAMS Accession No. ML14083A200].
23 The inspectors determined that the majority of the staff is willing to raise safety and quality concerns through multiple avenues without fear of retaliation and feel that they are empowered to stop work when they identify issues. In addition, the licensee staff stated that the incorporation of the SNC senior managers into the construction organizations to help with engagement and ownership of the construction project is viewed favorably by the staff. The NRC determined that many of the previous issues related to chilled work environment have been addressed and corrected.
The inspectors also determined that while the majority of the licensee staff indicated that they would be willing to raise safety concerns without fear of retaliation, some staff in more than one group indicated that they do not feel free to raise concerns without fear of retaliation because there is a perception that either: 1) concerns raised will not be addressed or 2) that they might be retaliated against. The NRC inspectors found that multiple groups do not have confidence in the CAP or that anything is being done about their concerns. Specifically, some expressed concern that when issues are brought up, documented, discussed, and then closed, they often get closed without real action to address the concerns. Some individuals indicated that they rarely or never receive feedback on their concerns and must seek it out. Some indicated that they never received training on how to use SNC CR process/program or how to receive feedback from the CR system. Similarly, some individuals indicated that when they bring up concerns, individuals are frequently moved to other positions after expressing concerns. Additionally, multiple groups indicated that they do not have confidence in the sites employee concerns program. There is a perception among several groups about issues with overall effectiveness of the ECP as well as confidentiality with using the program.
The inspectors noted that the licensee did have a policy for the ECP program, however, the inspectors determined that Vogtle 3 and 4 does not have a detailed procedure that delineates the requirements of the ECP to support the policy. Vogtle does have a work instruction for ECP but the instruction is not sufficiently detailed to provide specific direction to the employee concerns professionals. The specific directions not delineated include what types of concerns warranted each type of ECP actions; when a CAP should be generated from an ECP investigation; or timeliness of case closure. In addition, individuals indicated that it seems that CRs and TEs are frequently being closed to ECP files. The NRC is concerned about this because when issues (CRs/TEs) are closed to ECP files, there are no additional CAP documents tracking completion of the actions or establishing due dates to ensure that the actions are being completed timely and in accordance with CAP standards. One example the team identified is that CRs and TEs associated with the SCWE survey recommendations were all closed in the CAP and the only tool tracking outstanding actions is the ECP database. This tracking system does not contain due dates or expected completion dates. Hence, the need for and tracking of important actions may not be visible to all appropriate stakeholders and it does not appear that actions are being tracked.
The Licensee entered the results of this assessment into the CAP as CR 50148707.

Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed issues entered into the licensee's CAP daily to assess issues that might warrant additional follow-up inspection, to assess repetitive or long-term issues, to assess adverse performance trends, and to verify the CAP appropriately included regulatory required nonsafety-related structure system and components (SSCs). The inspectors periodically attended the licensee's CAP review meetings, held discussions with licensee and contractor personnel, and performed reviews of CAP activities during the conduct of other baseline inspection procedures. The inspectors reviewed conditions entered into the licensee's CAP to determine whether the issues were classified in accordance with the licensee's quality assurance program and CAP implementing procedures. The inspectors reviewed corrective actions associated with conditions entered into the CAP to determine whether appropriate actions to correct the issues were identified and implemented effectively, including immediate or short-term corrective actions, in accordance with the applicable quality assurance program requirements and Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the corrective actions taken to determine whether they were commensurate with the significance of the associated conditions in accordance with the licensee's CAP implementing procedures.
The inspectors completed reviews of CAP entry logs to verify issues from all aspects of the project, including equipment, human performance, and program issues, were being identified by the licensee and its contractors at an appropriate threshold and entered into the CAP as required by licensee's CAP implementing procedures.

Other Activities Commitment 4.d): This commitment and action required within six (6) months of issuance of this order that SNC-V will obtain a third-party, independent SCWE survey of Vogtle Units 3 and 4 project sites. SNC-V will obtain a second third-party, independent SCWE survey of SNC-V no later than thirty (30) months after issuance of this confirmatory order. The results of each survey will be summarized into reports which will be made available for inspection by NRC. Recommendations (if any) from the survey reports will be entered into the CAP or ECP, as appropriate, depending on the nature of the recommendation, for disposition. The NRC reviewed the first independent SCWE survey as documented in inspection reports 05200025/2020012 and 05200026/2020012. The inspectors verified by a review of the corrective actions for TE 1062345 that the second independent SCWE survey for SNC-V was completed by a third-party vendor in May 2022.
The inspectors reviewed the corrective actions and enhancements associated with the second independent SCWE survey to verify that corrective actions were developed and appropriate to address the challenges/weaknesses identified in the assessment. SNC-V continues to track the corrective actions through the following CRs: 50139671, 50139675, and 50139678. The inspectors determined that Vogtle is implementing the requirements of 4.d in accordance with the order.
