SUBJECT: WOLF CREEK GENERATING STATION - ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF
RESPONSE TO U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION INSPECTION
REPORT 05000482/2024003 AND DISPUTED NON-CITED VIOLATION
Dear Cleve Reasoner:
This letter acknowledges receipt of your December 31, 2024, correspondence (Agencywide
Document and Access Management System [ADAMS] Accession No. ML24366A161) sent in
response to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Inspection Report 05000482/2024003 (ML24295A379) dated November 01, 2024. In your letter, you provide a
basis for why non-cited violation (NCV)05000482/2024003-01, Failure to Remove Motor-
Operated Valve Thermal Overload Bypass Jumpers during Surveillance Testing and System
Maintenance, should not have been issued against the requirements of the licensees
commitment to Regulatory Guide 1.106, Thermal Overload Protection for Electric Motors on
Motor-Operated Valves, Revision 1.
The NRC understands that Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporations letter was not a
formal backfit appeal, and the NRC will review your basis for contesting the violation in
accordance with Section 2.8 of the Enforcement Manual. Accordingly, we plan to provide the
results of our evaluation and the basis for any decision relative to the disputed NCV by written
response within 90 days of the receipt of your December 31, 2024, letter.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Agency Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be made
available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or in the NRCs
ADAMS, accessible from the NRCs website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
