SUBJECT:
KAIROS POWER LLC - FINAL SAFETY EVALUATION FOR TOPICAL REPORT GRAPHITE MATERIAL QUALIFICATION FOR THE KAIROS POWER FLUORIDE SALT-COOLED HIGH-TEMPERATURE REACTOR (REVISION 4)
(EPID NO. L-2021-TOP-0022/CAC NO. 000431)
Dear Mr. Hastings:
This letter provides the final safety evaluation (SE) for the Kairos Power LLC (Kairos) topical report (TR) Graphite Material Qualification for the Kairos Power Fluoride Salt-Cooled High-Temperature Reactor, Revision 4. By letter dated July 8, 2021, Kairos submitted Revision 1 of the TR for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff review (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML21190A218). On November 2, 2021, the NRC staff provided its review questions to Kairos (ML23059A265).
The review questions were discussed during closed meetings held between the NRC staff and Kairos on December 15, 2021, February 10, 2022, February 15, 2022, February 22, 2022, March 1, 2022, March 8, 2022, and March 15, 2022. By letter dated May 11, 2022, Kairos submitted Revision 2 of the TR (ML22132A202) to address the NRC staff review questions.
By letter dated July 13, 2022, Kairos submitted Revision 3 of the TR (ML22194A943) to address questions discussed during a closed meeting held between the NRC staff and Kairos on June 14, 2022. By letter dated September 16, 2022, Kairos submitted Revision 4 of the TR (ML22259A142) to address a question from the NRC staff related to the Kairos Hermes reactor design.
The NRC staffs final SE for Graphite Material Qualification for the Kairos Power Fluoride Salt-Cooled High-Temperature Reactor, Revision 4, is enclosed. The NRC staff provided Kairos a draft of the SE for the purpose of identifying proprietary information on December 7, 2022 (ML22343A285). On December 19, 2022, Kairos confirmed that the proprietary information in the draft SE was appropriately marked (ML23058A226). to this letter contains Proprietary and Export Controlled Information. When separated from, this letter is DECONTROLLED.
