Tuesday, January 27, 2026 9:07:00 PM Good evening Ben,
By letter dated August 11, 2025 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession ML25224A124), as supplement by letter dated December 4, 2025 (ML26027A205) Omaha Public Power District (OPPD, the licensee) submitted the Final Status Survey Report (FSSR)for Phase 2 of the Final Status Survey Plan for the Fort Calhoun Station, Unit 1 (FCS) to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for review and approval associated with meeting the radiological release criteria described in the NRC-approved FCS License Termination Plan (LTP).
The purpose of this e-mail is to provide the results of the NRC staffs acceptance review of this request. The acceptance review was performed to determine whether the submittal contains sufficient technical information to allow the NRC staff to complete a detailed technical review. The acceptance review is also intended to identify any readily apparent deficiencies related to the characterization of the regulatory requirements or plant licensing basis.
The NRC staff has reviewed your submittal, as supplemented, and concluded that it includes technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the FSSR in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. Given the more limited scope and depth of the acceptance review compared to the detailed technical review, issues that affect the NRC staffs ability to complete the technical review may still be identified despite the acceptance review being deemed adequate.If additional information is needed, you will be notified by separate correspondence.
Based on that, the staffs initial resource estimate for this action, and your requested review schedule, our estimate for this review is 340 hours0.00394 days <br />0.0944 hours <br />5.621693e-4 weeks <br />1.2937e-4 months <br /> and 5 months. The NRC staff expects to complete the review by June 12, 2026. If emergent complexities or challenges arise during the NRC staffs review that affect the initial forecasted completion date or result in significant changes to the estimated review hours, the reasons for those changesalong with updated estimateswill be communicated during routine interactions with the assigned project manager.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
