By telephone conversation on April 25, 2025, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff provided a verbal authorization to Arizona Public Service (the licensee) accepting the provisions of Relief Request 76 for one cycle of operation. Authorization of Relief Request 76 allows Unit 1 to restart from the ongoing RFO and provides time for the NRC to thoroughly review the relief request. The licensee is to submit a final one-cycle flaw analytical evaluation, evaluation of repair, and corrosion evaluation within 14 days following the end of the current Palo Verd, Unit 1 refueling outage.
