X-Energy Form 898 Completeness Determination for XENITH Analytical Methods Topical Report Friday, September 13, 2024 9:28:00 AM Mr. Dudek:
Attached is the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff completeness determination for X-Energy XENITH Microreactor Analytical Methods Topical Report (MRA-00-412-RPT-2000526). Based on a preliminary review of the report, the NRC staff determined that it provides sufficient information for the NRC staff to begin a detailed technical review.
The NRC staff plans to issue the Draft Safety Evaluation by May 20, 2025. If the NRC staff determines that a regulatory audit may be beneficial to review related design information, an audit plan will be developed by October 18, 2024. If necessary, the NRC staff will issue requests for additional information (RAIs) by November 27, 2024. The NRC staff estimates a level of effort of 600 hours0.00694 days <br />0.167 hours <br />9.920635e-4 weeks <br />2.283e-4 months <br /> will be needed to complete the technical review, present to the Advisory Committee for Reactors Safeguards, and issue the Final Safety Evaluation. The schedule and level of effort could change due to several factors such as the need for additional rounds of RAIs, unanticipated changes to the scope of the review, vendor delays, unsolicited supplements to the topical report, etc. The NRC staff will communicate any changes to the review schedule or estimated NRC staff hours including the reason(s) for the changes.
