 Welcome to Vogel Timeline, our quarterly news report keeping you up to date on the latest happenings here at the Vogel 3 and 4 site near Augusta, Georgia. It was a really busy summer with multiple notable events taking place. The workforce continues to ramp up and helping oversee the inspection process is the newest addition to the NRC inspection team, Terrence Brimfield. Terrence joined the team in May and is a nuclear engineer responsible for inspecting a variety of structures, systems and components that are associated with ITAAC. He will also oversee component and system testing activities. The assembly of the squib valves for units 3 and 4 is complete. The NRC conducted its inspection of the valves and identified no issues. Delivery is on track to meet construction need dates. The setting of the turbine building roof trusses marks the top height of vertical construction on the unit 3 turbine island. Just prior to installing the last trusses, the turbine building's 15-ton and 225-ton gantry cranes were set. Once the remainder of the roof is in place, the site will begin to use those new cranes for turbine and generator assembly. In August, the 14th Vogel Construction Monitoring Report, or VCM, was approved by the Georgia Public Service Commission in a unanimous vote. The VCM reports detailed biannual construction progress and investments made by Georgia Power in Vogel 3 and 4 to the Georgia PSC, which regulates electricity rates in Georgia. August also saw the CA-20 module lifted and set in place in the unit 4 nuclear island. Weighing more than 2 million pounds and rising more than 5 stories, CA-20 is the largest module yet to be assembled in the MAB. This critical component will house many plant components, including the spent fuel storage area. To celebrate the successful lift and the 20 million plus safe work hours, work groups around the plant recognize this monumental achievement. The first initial license training, or ILT class for Vogel 3 and 4, recently completed their Nuclear Regulatory Commission exams, a first for the Southern Company fleet. Results have been issued from the NRC with 18 operators receiving their licenses. The testing process involved simulator testing, job performance measures, and a written exam, all of which took three weeks to complete. This is an important milestone for the project as preparations are made for transition to operations. Members of this team and the subsequent ILT classes will lead start-up testing and will be in the control room to take the plant online for the first time and will be responsible for the day-to-day safe operation of our plant for years to come. Recently, we spoke with Arkansas native Derek Trafford, an ILT candidate and shift support supervisor in training. Derek worked for Arkansas Nuclear 1 in operations for seven years before joining the Vogel project in 2011. I came to plant Vogel 3 and 4 in 2011, so I've been here approximately five years, currently serving as a shift support supervisor and helped mentoring class three, which started August of 2016. The process for achieving a license is we'll start out with generic fundamentals, teach you the basics of how a nuclear plant operates. NRC comes on site and we have another written examination, so there's three rounds of written examinations. We have simulator scenarios, also have job performance measures, JPMs, where test an operator's ability to perform a task that an operator may perform in the future. Plan on going over to the construction side and getting involved in pre-operational testing. It's really one of the big sales of me coming here is being able to do the pre-op testing. It's where an operator gets to get out in the plant, see the plant for the first time, and operate equipment where typically a control room at the other sites are sitting at 100% power and maintaining 100% power, so get to come and do some exciting things here at 3 and 4. Thanks Derek for sharing your story and giving us a look into the day of an IELT candidate. Recently, the 8th annual Stuff the Bus campaign made a trip to the site. Westinghouse donated 100 backpacks and water bottles while Floor donated 100 backpacks. Employees from Westinghouse, Floor, and Southern Nuclear donated other needed supplies to Stuff the Bus. The school supply drive distributed a variety of donated materials to 600 children across the seven public schools in Burke County. United Way of the CSRA estimates that approximately 45% of students in the school district live at or below the poverty line. SGA Elementary School Principal Josh Brantley recently spoke to us about what these types of programs and donations can mean to schools, teachers, and most importantly, students. Our Stuff the Bus campaign, we usually get together right at the beginning of the year for school starts and our community donates school supplies for our county. There's a big kickoff, a big promotion, a big to-do and our county gets behind that and works hard on that and once those supplies are accrued together, then they are sent to our county office and our county office distributes those supplies to the schools as needed and our school of course receives lots of those supplies from book bags to paper and pencils, crayons and things that we need that we're able to give back to those children who need those. Our Plant Vogel is a huge partner with that United Way and Stuff the Bus campaign as well. They're their own site when we do that drive and they're pushing and helping to get those donations in through their partnership and it's such a big initiative and I think their company is a big player in that as well so it's not just that one day at the Walmart parking lot but throughout the company, they're working to get those donations in as well. When school begins, there are several kids that come into the classroom and may not have what they need so we're able to speak with Ms. Johnson in our school who gets us the book bags or supplies or you know I have some still in my classroom that we share and they're allowed to use so whenever there's something in need they don't have to feel like they you know they're the ones that don't have anything we always have stuff available for them to have. Thanks to the tax revenue generated from Plant Vogel, we are able to have peer pros here at SGA in our classrooms where that's not the case in the state of Georgia. Plant Vogel of course is within Burt County and a lot of that money that tax digest comes from Georgia Power and we are able to afford a lot of things in our county that many school districts just cannot afford. Here at SGA, we do greatly appreciate all the things that Georgia Power has been able to do through the floor and Westinghouse, they're not just making a difference monetarily they're making a difference in a child's education and therefore making a difference in our community for a long time to come. Thanks so much Josh for updating us on this important program benefiting the children of Burt County. Vogel's participation in this year's drive was the largest for the CSRA United Way campaign. Just another example of how willing and ready all of our employees are to be a citizen wherever we serve. Well, that's all the news we have time for today. Thanks for joining us as we share the latest happenings here at this site and in our community. Have a great fall and stay safe. We look forward to seeing you next time for more great stories here on the Vogel Timeline Report.
