SUBJECT:

APPROVAL OF FINAL STATUS SURVEY SUPPLEMENT NO. 4 On November 17, 2004, Maine Yankee Atomic Power Company (Maine Yankee) submitted Final Status Survey (FSS) Supplement No. 4, for U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) review and approval. FSS Supplement No. 4 includes the following 15 survey units: FA-1400 Personnel Hatch; FA-1900 HV 7 and 9 Area; FB-0200 Control and Computer Rooms/Service Area; FB-0500 Turbine Building (4 survey units); FB-1100 Circulating Water Pump House; FB-2000 Bailey Barn; FB-2600 Warehouse 5; FB-3000 Sewage Water Treatment Plant; FC-2000 Containment Foundation Drains (embedded pipe); FD-0500 Circulating Water Piping (2 survey units); and FR-0910 Firepond and Fire Pumphouse (2 survey units).

The NRC transmitted a Request for Additional Information (RAI) on January 5, 2005, which Maine Yankee responded to on January 27, 2005. The staff has reviewed Maine Yankees RAI response and now considers FSS Supplement 4 to be acceptable, conditioned on acceptable re-survey results of the surface following removal of the sacrificial covering. The conditional approval of FSS Supplement 4 is also supported by the staffs review of FSS release records conducted during a site visit on December 7-8, 2004.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of General Applicability," a copy of this letter will be available electronically in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publically Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.

Questions regarding this letter should be directed to John Buckley at 301-415-6607.

Sincerely,

/RA/
