Vogtle DRL.pdf All, please find the attached document request for the upcoming Vogtle 3&4 RP baseline occupational inspection that will take place during the 3R2 outage. This document request covers the first week, which will be 71124.01 Rad Hazards, 71124.03 Airborne, and 71124.04 Dosimetry, and there will be a separate document request for the 71124.05 inspection which will take place several weeks later. For this first week, the inspectors will be myself and Jose Diaz. Let me know if you need anything further from us. Thanks.

Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 3&4 Radiation Safety Baseline Inspection Initial Information Request Inspection Report: 2026002 During the week of April 20-24, 2026, the NRC will perform a baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 3&4 (NRC Inspection Procedures 71124.01, 71124.03, and 71124.04).

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we are requesting in advance documents needed for this activity. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, thereby minimizing the number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of the inspection. The NRC requests that these documents be provided to the inspectors no later than April 10, 2026.

If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Jack Bell at 404-997-4638, or the Radiological Safety Branch Chief, Donna Jackson at 404-997-4892.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding, a copy of this document will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room, or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS); accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
