| The NRC has completed its end-of-cycle performance assessment of Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Unit 3&4, reviewing performance indicators (PIs), inspection results, and enforcement actions from January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2023, for Unit 3 and from August 3, 2023, through December 31, 2023, for Unit 4. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. The NRC concluded that overall performance at your facility preserved public health and safety. The baseline inspection program was completed at your facility in accordance with Section IV.B of the Transition to the Reactor Oversight Process for Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 3&4 memo (ML20191A383). | | The NRC has completed its end-of-cycle performance assessment of Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Unit 3&4, reviewing performance indicators (PIs), inspection results, and enforcement actions from January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2023, for Unit 3 and from August 3, 2023, through December 31, 2023, for Unit 4.

| The NRC determined the performance at Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Unit 3&4 during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column, the highest performance category of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix, because all inspection findings had very low safety significance (i.e., Green), and all PIs were within the expected range (i.e., Green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility. | | The NRC determined the performance at Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Unit 3&4 during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column, the highest performance category of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix, because all inspection findings had very low safety significance (i.e., Green), and all PIs were within the expected range (i.e., Green).

SUBJECT:
ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR VOGTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT, UNIT 3 & 4 (REPORT 05200025/2023006 & 05200026/2023006)
Dear Jamie Coleman:
The NRC has completed its end-of-cycle performance assessment of Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Unit 3&4, reviewing performance indicators (PIs), inspection results, and enforcement actions from January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2023, for Unit 3 and from August 3, 2023, through December 31, 2023, for Unit 4. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. The NRC concluded that overall performance at your facility preserved public health and safety. The baseline inspection program was completed at your facility in accordance with Section IV.B of the Transition to the Reactor Oversight Process for Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 3&4 memo (ML20191A383).
The NRC determined the performance at Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Unit 3&4 during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column, the highest performance category of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix, because all inspection findings had very low safety significance (i.e., Green), and all PIs were within the expected range (i.e., Green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility.
The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through December 31, 2025.
The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last twelve months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).February 28, 2024 J. Coleman 2 Please contact me at 404-997-4428 with any questions you have regarding this letter.
Sincerely, Bradley J. Davis, Chief Construction Inspection Branch 2 Division of Construction Oversight Docket No. 05200025 and 05200026 License No. NPF-91 and NPF-92
