From May14-18, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a baseline Emergency Preparedness exercise inspection at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant. The inspection will evaluate activities in the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone using NRC Inspection Procedures (IPs) 71114.01, Exercise Evaluation; 71114.04, Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes; and the Emergency Preparedness sections of 71151, Performance Indicator Verification. Prior to the onsite inspection period, inspectors will review the proposed exercise scenario using IP 71114.08, Exercise Evaluation - Scenario Review.

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. To minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of the inspection.

SUBJECT:

VOGTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT - EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

Dear Mr. Myers:

From May14-18, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a baseline Emergency Preparedness exercise inspection at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant. The inspection will evaluate activities in the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone using NRC Inspection Procedures (IPs) 71114.01, Exercise Evaluation; 71114.04, Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes; and the Emergency Preparedness sections of 71151, Performance Indicator Verification. Prior to the onsite inspection period, inspectors will review the proposed exercise scenario using IP 71114.08, Exercise Evaluation - Scenario Review.

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intens ive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. To minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of the inspection.

We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff, and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Jeff Deal (706-826-3792) of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Steven P. Sanchez at 404-997-4418 (Steven.Sanchez@nrc.gov

), or the Chief, Operations Branch 2, Eugene F. Guthrie at 404-997-4662 (

).

D. Myers 2 This letter and its enclosure will be made available for public inspection and copying at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, "Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding."
