10CFR50.46 Annual Notification and Reporting for 2004, dated April 6, 2005.

(b) Letter from Mary G. Korsnick (Ginna LLC) to Donna M. Skay (NRC),

"License Amendment Request Regarding Revised Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) Analyses - Changes to Accumulator, Refueling Water Storage (RWST), and Administrative Control Technical Specifications", dated April 29, 2005.

Dear Ms. Skay:

In accordance with the requirements in 10CFR50.46 paragraph (a)(3)(ii), this 30 day and annual Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) report is hereby submitted by R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, LLC (Ginna LLC).

Westinghouse, the provider of loss of coolant accident (LOCA) analysis services for the R.E.

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, has provided an update to the peak cladding temperature (PCT) margin in Reference (a). A summary of the cumulative PCT changes can be found in Attachment 1 to this letter.

The large-break LOCA PCT has not changed since the last annual report. The large-break LOCA PCT remains at 20870 F.

The small-break LOCA PCT has not changed since the last annual report. The small-break LOCA PCT remains at 1381'F. Because the cumulative sum of the absolute magnitudes of the effects on the small-break LOCA PCT remain greater than 50'F, the changes conservatively qualify as being significant as defined in 10CFR50.46(a)(3)(i). Consequently, the cumulative changes are being reported in this 30 day report. I

(\DDI 100 (3t5

The small-break LOCA PCT value determined in the analysis of record, when combined with all PCT margin allocations, remains over 8000 F below the 10CFR50.46 acceptance criteria of 2200 0 F. As such, no reanalysis is currently planned to address the specific issues raised in . Ginna LLC has previously submitted (Reference (b)) new large-break LOCA and small-break LOCA analyses in support of the planned power uprate of the facility.

If you should have any questions regarding this submittal, please contact George Wrobel at (585) 771-3535.

Very truly yours Mary Korsnick
