July 11, 2023 Mr. Daniel G. Stoddard Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Innsbrook Technical Center 5000 Dominion Boulevard Glen Allen, VA 23060-6711
SUBJECT:
SURRY POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 - AUDIT
SUMMARY
FOR LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST - REVISION OF THE EMERGENCY PLAN TO SUPPORT RELOCATION OF THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER (EPID L-2022-LLA-0167)
Dear Mr. Stoddard:
By letters dated November 18, 2022 and May 31, 2023 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML22322A182), and ML23167B007, respectively, Virginia Electric and Power Company (Dominion Energy Virginia, the licensee) submitted a license amendment request (LAR) to revise the Emergency Plan for Surry Power Station (SPS), Units 1 and 2. Specifically, the LAR proposed to relocate the Technical Support Center (TSC) from its current locations adjacent to the Main Control Room (MCR) to the building outside the Protected Area (PA) that were used previously as the site Local Emergency Operations Facility (LEOF).
To enhance the review of the licensees request, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff conducted a site audit which was completed on June 14, 2023. The NRC staff performed the audit to examine the licensees non-docketed information, as needed, and the site configuration with the intent to gain a better understanding of the LAR, verify information, and to identify any information that may require docketing to support the NRCs basis for a licensing decision. A summary of the regulatory audit is enclosed. The audit was conducted in accordance with the audit plan that was provided to the licensee by letter dated May 10, 2023 (ML23117A095).
D. Stoddard If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-5136 or via email at John.Klos@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/
John Klos, Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch II-1 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket Nos. 50-280 and 50-281
