July 27, 2006 Mr. William Levis Senior Vice President & Chief Nuclear Officer PSEG Nuclear, LLC - N09 Post Office Box 236 Hancocks Bridge, NJ 08038

SUBJECT:

PSEG NUCLEAR LLC, RESPONSE TO GENERIC LETTER 2006-03, POTENTIALLY NONCONFORMING HEMYC AND MT FIRE BARRIER CONFIGURATIONS, SALEM NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 (TAC NOS. MD1627 AND MD1628)

Dear Mr. Levis:

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) acknowledges the receipt of your response to Generic Letter 2006-03, Potentially Nonconforming Hemyc and MT Fire Barrier Configurations. Under oath or affirmation, you have stated that Salem Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1 and 2, do not rely on either the Hemyc or MT fire barrier system. Additionally, you stated that fire barriers, that separate redundant safe shutdown trains located within the same fire area, have been designed and installed in accordance with current NRC guidance.

Based on your response, the basis for stating that these other fire barriers have been designed and installed in accordance with NRC guidance should be maintained on site, and will be subject to inspection during the normal NRC inspection process.

If you have any questions regarding this response, please contact me at 301-415-1321 or snb@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
