The results of a review performed as required by 10 CFR 54.37(b) to identify any newly-identified Structure, System, or Component (SSC) that would be subjected to an aging management review or evaluation of time-limited aging analyses (TLAAs) in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21.
Revision 27 to the Hope Creek UFSAR is being submitted in its entirety electronically and contains identified text, table, and figure changes required to reflect the plant configuration as of May 14, 2024, six months prior to this submittal. In addition, there are general editorial changes. In accordance with 10 CFR 50.71(e)(2)(ii), a summary of changes made under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59 but not previously submitted to the NRC is provided in.

November 14, 2024 10 CFR 50.71(e)
Page 2 10 CFR 54.37(b)
LR-N24-0067 NEI 99-04 Based on NRC Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2015-17, Review and Submission of Updates to Final Safety Analysis Reports, Emergency Preparedness Documents, and Fire Protection Documents, PSEG has reviewed Revision 27 of the UFSAR for security-related information (SRI). Consequently, two versions of Revision 27 of the UFSAR are being transmitted separately with this submittal. provides a version of Revision 27 to the Hope Creek UFSAR which redacts the information that is SRI and designates it as Security Related Information - Withheld Under 10 CFR 2.390. Enclosure 1 is suitable for public disclosure. provides the un-redacted version of Revision 27 to the Hope Creek UFSAR and should be withheld from public disclosure under 10 CFR 2.390. The information that is SRI is designated by the statement Security Related Information - Withhold Under 10 CFR 2.390 at the top of the affected pages. Upon separation of Enclosure 2, the remainder of this submittal may be made publicly available. provides a complete updated copy of the Hope Creek TS Bases. This includes changes through October 31, 2024.
In accordance with the NEI process for managing NRC commitments and associated NRC notifications, PSEG performed a review of regulatory commitments to determine if there were any Hope Creek changed/closed commitments that were not reported by other means since the last submittal in April 2023. The review concluded that there were no changed or closed commitments during that time.
An evaluation was completed to determine whether any newly-identified SSCs existed in support of submitting Hope Creek UFSAR, Revision 27. This evaluation involved reviewing pertinent documentation for the period subsequent to the last Hope Creek UFSAR revision.
The evaluation concluded that there were no newly-identified SSCs and no changes to the Hope Creek current licensing basis that would have caused any newly-identified SSCs for which aging management reviews or TLAAs would apply.
As required by 10 CFR 50.71(e)(2)(i), I certify that to the best of my knowledge, the information contained in the Enclosures and Attachments to this letter, which pertains to the Hope Creek UFSAR, Revision 27, accurately reflects information and analyses submitted to the NRC, or prepared pursuant to NRC requirements as described above. There are no new regulatory commitments contained in this letter.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Eric Otruba at Eric.Otruba@pseg.com.
