September 11, 2025 VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL ONLY Mr. Kevin Folk U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Mail Stop T-4B72 Washington, DC 20555-0001 RE: Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants Supplement 10, Second Renewal Regarding Subsequent License Renewal for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Units 2 and 3, Delta, PA; CEQ #20250124

Dear Mr. Folk:

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reviewed the above-referenced Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and Section 309 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). The SEIS is a supplement to the 2020 Final SEIS.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRCs) proposed action would restore the expiration dates for the subsequent renewed facility operating licenses to August 8, 2053 for Unit 2 and to July 2, 2054 for Unit 3.

In our letter for the Draft, EPA did not identify significant public health, welfare, or environmental quality concerns to be addressed but included several recommendations for the Final SEIS. We appreciate that Appendix A included responses to EPAs July 14, 2025 comments. EPA has no additional comments at this time.

Thank you for the opportunity to review this Final SEIS. We would appreciate receiving an electronic copy of the Record of Decision when it is available. If you have any questions, please contact me or the Region 3 staff contact, Carrie Traver, at traver.carrie@epa.gov or 215-814-2772.

Sincerely, Timothy Witman NEPA Branch Manager US EPA Mid-Atlantic Region 3 witman.timothy@epa.gov Digitally signed by TIMOTHY WITMAN Date: 2025.09.11 15:17:56 -04'00'
