March 30, 2006 Mr. Charles D. Naslund Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer AmerenUE Callaway Plant P.O. Box 620 Fulton, MO 65251
Dear Mr. Naslund:
This is in response to your December 2, 2005, letter requesting a fee waiver for the Callaway Plant review fees for implementing the new fire protection rule. Your request is based on your proposal that Callaway Plant be considered a pilot plant for the initial implementation of performance-based fire protection using National Fire Protection Association Standard NFPA-805 under 10 CFR 50.48(c). For the reason below, I am denying a fee waiver in accordance with the applicable provisions of 10 CFR 170.11.
The Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has determined that participation of two plants in the pilot plant review would enable them to observe and review the transition to NFPA-805 under 10 CFR 50.48(c). The Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has already selected two other pilot plants for transition to NFPA-805, and at this time, does not plan to add additional pilot plants. Therefore, Callaway Plant is the primary beneficiary of the NRCs review and approval of their request to adopt NFPA-805. Per provisions of 10 CFR 170.11(a)(1)(iii)(c), I am unable to grant you a fee waiver for the licensing and review fees for the Callaway Plant.
A separate letter from the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation responded to other issues raised in your December 2, 2005, letter. Please contact Ms. Renu Suri, of my staff, at 301-415-0161 for any fee-related questions. For technical questions, please contact Dr. Sunil Weerakkody at 301-415-2870.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Jesse L. Funches Chief Financial Officer
