NRC ORDER – ORDER

On October 3, 2016, the NRC issued a Confirmatory Order to Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc. (SNC) confirming SNC's commitment to submit a license amendment request to transition Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2 (HNP) to the National Fire Protection Association Standard 805. SNC had originally planned to submit its application on October 4, 2016. However, SNC requested more time to complete development of its Fire Probabilistic Risk Assessment model and to allow appropriate coordination and implementation of design modifications at HNP. The NRC reviewed SNC's request and its justification for the delay, and accepted the proposed new submittal date of April 4, 2018.
