SUBJECT:

Acceptance for Review and Establishment of Milestone Schedule for TSTF Traveler 495, Revision 0, Bases Change to Address GE Part 21 SC05-03.

Docket No: PROJ0753 (TAC MD2672)

Dear Members of the TSTF:

By letter (ML061990227), dated July 18, 2006, you requested The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to review and approve a non-consolidated line item improvement process (non-CLIIP) review of TSTF Traveler 495, Revision 0, Bases Change to Address GE Part 21 SC05-03.

Section 170.21 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations requires that TSTF Travelers be subject to fees based on the full cost of the review. You did not request a fee exemption; therefore, staff hours and the contractor cost, if applicable, will be billed, per your request, to the Boiling Water Reactor Owners' Group (BWROG).

Technical staff have completed a preliminary review of your submission and determined it to be sufficiently complete and an appropriate submission to initiate a more comprehensive review, consistent with your request. The enclosed review milestone schedule has been established and was mutually-agreed upon by supporting Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff and by your representative, Mr. Brian Mann, by telephone on September 14, 2006.

Should circumstances lead to anticipated or actual schedule slippage, the causing party should promptly inform and coordinate with the impacted party to reach a new agreement and publish an appropriately revised schedule. This is of particular importance in connection with TSTF response to NRC staff requests for additional information (RAIs) as failure to provide a timely responsive reply, in accordance with the agreed schedule, or to successfully negotiate a revised schedule, may result in termination of the review process and closure of the TAC.

Early completion of any activity will not necessitate schedule revision. Schedule revisions will be published by letter similar to this and will remain in effect unless superceded by another published schedule. The current published schedule will be posted to the NRC Inspection Technical Specifications Branch (ITSB) web page.

Task Force Ravinder Grover (301-415-2166; Email: rpg2@nrc.gov) has been assigned as the Technical Specifications Branch (ITSB) project lead. Please contact Mr. Grover in coordinating activities specific to this review. Ross Telson may also be contacted at (301) 415-2256 or rdt@nrc.gov in the event Mr. Grover is unavailable or should you have questions or need further information in connection with the TSTF traveler review process or other ongoing TSTF traveler reviews.

Sincerely,

/RA/
