REFERENCE:

Letter to Nuclear Regulatory Commission, "License Renewal Application Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit 1," dated October 28, 2011 (GNRO-2011/00093)

Dear Sir or Madam:

The purpose of this letter is to provide the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) an annual update to the referenced Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS) License Renewal Application (LRA), in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21 (b). During NRC review of the GGNS LRA, GGNS is required by 10 CFR 54.21 (b) to provide an annual report of changes to the GGNS current licensing basis (CLB) that materially affects the contents of the GGNS LRA, including the Final Safety Analysis Report supplement. GGNShas completed the annual CLB review and is providing, in the Attachment, the changes to the LRA required by this review.

If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact James Nadeau at 601-437-2103.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on th~ 27th day of October, 2014.

Sincerely,

~""~......._---
