SUBJECT:

RESPONSE TO DUKE ENERGY CORPORATIONS REQUEST TO CHANGE THE TRIENNIAL NRC-EVALUATED FORCE-ON-FORCE INSPECTION DATE

Dear Chris Newton:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff received your email titled Duke Energy 71130.03 reschedule request 2025 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML24149A168) and has conducted a review of the information contained within.

Your email stated that Catawba Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2, and McGuire Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2, are formally requesting a date change for the NRC-evaluated force-on-force (FOF) due to a schedule conflict with upgrades being conducted at McGuire Nuclear Station during its currently scheduled timeframe in 2025. In this email you also indicated that Catawba Nuclear Station has agreed to swap its FOF inspection dates with McGuire Nuclear Station.

The staff finds reasonable Duke Energy Corporations request to swap the NRC-evaluated FOF inspection dates of Catawba and McGuire, and therefore approves the new schedule accordingly. Catawbas currently scheduled NRC-evaluated FOF inspection in February/March 2025 will be subsequently rescheduled to June/July 2025; McGuires currently scheduled NRC-evaluated FOF inspection in June/July 2025 will be subsequently rescheduled to February/March 2025.

Please feel free to contact me at (301) 287-3666 with any questions you have regarding this letter.

Sincerely, Jefferson Clark, Chief Security Performance Evaluation Branch Division of Security Operations Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response Docket Nos.: 05000369 and 05000370 (McGuire) 05000413 and 05000414 (Catawba)
