,Generation Company (PNPS) - Request for Additional Information RE: Training and Qualification Plan (TAC NO. MC2956), dated July 9, 2004 LETTER NUMBER: 2.04.065

Dear Sir or Madam:

Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO), Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (PNPS) is in receipt of the NRC letter containing requests for additional information (RAls) (Reference 1). In order to standardize our approach with the NRC-approved industry approach, ENO's April 29, 2004 responses to Order EA-03-086 were based on NEI-03-12, 'Template for the Security Plan, Training and Qualification Plan, Safeguards Contingency Plan" Revision 1, as approved by the staff in a letter from Roy P. Zimmerman to Steven D. Floyd dated June 10, 2004.

The NRC RAls either request modifications to the template language (indicated with an

• in ) or to licensee-provided details (i.e., bracketed template information). Where template language is involved, ENO will adopt revised language once agreement has been reached between the industry Security Working Group (SWG) licensee representatives and the NRC staff. We believe this approach will be the most responsive and will maintain mutually desired consistency. For selected RAls, ENO intends to adopt the language that is deemed acceptable to the Commission and responsive to the NRC issues following the industry security frequently asked question (SFAQ) process and the final disposition of any industry appeals.

Responses that rely on this process are discussed in the specific RAI responses. We believe that sufficient detail is provided here to enable the staff to conclude the issue can be appropriately resolved subject to SWG and NRC staff agreements and later submittal of changed pages incorporating known acceptable language (i.e., a revision of the Security Plan that incorporates all responses). ENO will provide a revised Security Plan orreplacement pages that incorporate all of our RAI responses on a schedule to be determined with the staff.
