ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RESPONSE TO NRC INSPECTION REPORT 05000424/2025010 AND 05000425/2025010 AND DISPUTED NON-CITED VIOLATION
Dear Jamie Coleman:
This letter acknowledges your July 18, 2025, correspondence (Agencywide Document and Access Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML25199A237) sent in response to U.S. NRC Inspection Report 05000424/2025010 and 05000425/2025010 (ML25167A082) dated June 20, 2025. In your letter, you dispute one non-cited violation (NCV 05000424,05000425/2025010-01) associated with the failure to maintain the qualification of digital governors for emergency diesel generators (EDG). Specifically, the NRCs inspection report asserted that Vogtle failed to verify that modifications to the qualified configuration of the EDG governor would continue to ensure acceptable performance when exposed to electromagnetic interference (EMI). The NRC is currently reviewing your basis for contesting the violation in accordance with Part I, Section 2.8 of the Enforcement Manual. Accordingly, we will provide the results of our evaluation by written response upon completion of our review.
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.
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, please contact me at Alan.Blamey@nrc.gov or 404-997-4415.
Sincerely, Alan J. Blamey, Chief Reactor Projects Branch 3 Division of Operating Reactor Safety Docket Nos. 05000424 and 05000425 License Nos. NPF-68 and NPF-81 cc: Distribution via LISTSERV August 15, 2025 Signed by Blamey, Alan on 08/15/25
