SUBJECT:

MILLSTONE POWER STATION, UNIT NO. 3 - CHANGES TO THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS BASES (TAC NO. MC8076)

Dear Mr. Christian:

By letter dated May 31, 2005, Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) provided the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) with changes to Technical Specifications (TSs) Bases Sections 2.2.1, 3/4, and 3/4.1 through 3/4.9. DNC provided the TSs Bases pages to the NRC for information only.

The TSs Bases are not part of the TSs as defined by Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 50.36. Changes to the TSs Bases may be made without prior NRC approval, provided the changes do not require either a change in the TSs incorporated in the license or a change to the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report or Bases that require NRC approval pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59.

The TSs Bases you provided are enclosed and should be inserted in the TSs to ensure the NRC staff and DNC have identical TSs Bases pages. The NRC staff did not perform an evaluation of your TSs bases changes and staff concurrence with the changes is not implied by this letter. The NRC staff may review the evaluations that support these TSs Bases changes during the inspection of Millstone Power Station, Unit No. 3 implementation of 10 CFR 50.59.

Sincerely,

/RA/

George F. Wunder, Project Manager, Section 2 Project Directorate I Division of Licensing Project Management Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-423
