RE: A Question on A Past Amendment Issued

1. The Zirlo Topical Report will be added to the COLR and will contain the complete identification including the report no., title, revision, date and any supplements. This will be done in accordance with the requirements of TS 5.6.5b of the PVNGS Technical specifications. Specifically, the note associated with TS 5.6.5b
2. The complete listing of the Zirlo Topical Report into the PVNGS COLR will be completed in conjunction with the implementation of the TS Amendment approving the use of the Zirlo Topical Report.

If you have any questions or comments, please give me a call.

RE: A Question on A Past Amendment Issued Thank you. I am going to add a reference to this amendment in the ZIRLO/COLR amendment to explain why the addition of that one topical report to TS 5.6.5.b does not have a revision number or date.

I, however, need to ask to two more questions on this ZIRLO/COLR amendment:

1. Would you confirm that the reference to this topical report that will be added to the COLR document (versus the COLR TS section) issued for each reload will have the topical report listed with the date and revision number given in reference 1 of the attachment to the 11/09/2001 application?

TSTF-363 states this complete citation should be done in the COLR document, and the staff's SE does not address this.

2. Will the listing of the topical report be added to the COLR document (versus the COLR TS section) during the implementation of the amendment?

Jack, that was included as part of TS Amendment 137, issued along with the approval of the CENTS Code and other changes to the Administrative Section of TS's.

A Question on A Past Amendment Issued What amendments for the 3 units were issued to incorporate TSTF-363 in the TSs to allow topical report references listed in TS Section 5.6.5, "COLR,"

did not have to have the revision number and date, as long as the complete citation is given in the core operating limits report document? <JND>
