SUBJECT:

VOGTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2, LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION REVIEW

Dear Mr. Perry:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff is reviewing an application to renew the

operating license for Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2 (VEGP), which is located in

Burke County, Georgia. VEGP is operated by Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc. (SNC). As part of its review of the proposed action, the NRC staff has prepared a site-specific

Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) to its A Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants

@ (GEIS), NUREG-1437. The SEIS includes analyses of relevant environmental issues per taining to extended operation and refurbishment activities associated with license renewal. In accordance with the Fisheries and Wildlife

Coordination Act, a copy of the draft supplement is enclosed. Pursuant to 36 CFR 800.8(c), we

are requesting your comments on the draft supplement and on our preliminary conclusions.

The NRC staff determined that the area of potential effect for a license renewal action is the

area at the power plant site and its immediate environs that may be affected by post-license

renewal land disturbing operation or projected refurbishment activities associated with the

proposed action. Please note, there are no projected refurbishment activities associated with

license renewal. In the context of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, under which

the draft environmental impact statement was prepared, the NRC staff

=s preliminary determination is that the impact of license renewal on examined resources is small.

Please note that the period for public comment expires on July 17, 2008. If your office requires

additional time, or if there are any other questions regarding this correspondence, please have

your representative contact the Environmental Project Manager, Mr. J.P. Leous, at
