November 16, 2006 Technical Specifications Task Force (TSTF) 11921 Rockville Pike, Suite 100 Rockville, MD 20852

SUBJECT:

Establishment of Milestone Schedule for TSTF Travelers (Docket No. PROJ0753)

Dear Members of the TSTF:

As discussed during our August 17, 2006, public meeting, a schedule has been established by NRC for completing the review of all in-process TSTF travelers.1 NRC reviewed the schedule with your representative, Mr. Brian Mann, on November 16, 2006. This letter and the enclosed table establish a schedule for completion of TSTF traveler reviews. This schedule updates and supercedes any previously-submitted schedules.

Should circumstances lead to schedule slippage, the causing party should promptly inform the other in writing and coordinate with the impacted party to re-establish and publish an appropriately revised schedule. This is of particular importance in connection with TSTF response to NRC staff requests for additional information 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 NRC review process.

Early completion of any activity will not necessitate schedule revision. However, the NRC will endeavor to complete tasks early. The current revision of the Open TSTF Traveler Milestone schedule will be published and accessible via the NRC public web at Home > Nuclear Reactors

> Operating Reactors > Licensing > Technical Specifications > Open TSTF Travelers.

1 As new TSTF travelers are opened and active travelers are closed on an ongoing basis, it should be recognized that recent changes may not appear in this schedule.

TSTF Technical Specifications Branch project leads are listed for each TSTF traveler. Please contact these individuals in coordinating activities specific to their review. Ross Telson may also be contacted at (301) 415-2256 or rdt@nrc.gov in the event one of these individuals is unavailable or should you have questions or need further information in connection with the TSTF traveler review process.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Timothy J. Kobetz, Chief Technical Specifications Branch Division of Inspection and Regional Support Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation

In-process TSTF Traveler Schedule Milestones & Explanation Milestone Dates Meaning (Milestone dates in the attached spreadsheet may be interpreted as follows)

Application (a) This is the date the application was received by the NRC. The document processing center (DPC) will typically place the document into ADAMS within a few days of receipt. For electronic submittals, the DPC confirms, via email, both receipt and placement into ADAMS.

RAI Issued (c) This is the projected (actual) date a Request for Additional Information (RAI) letter will be (is) available to- or delivered to TSTF. If a copy of the signed RAI will be (is) emailed or faxed, it is this date. Otherwise, it is the date at which the RAI letter will become (is) publically available in ADAMS, permitting public access (typically the signature date plus six (6) days).

RAI Resp. (d) This is the projected (actual) date when TSTFs RAI response letter will be (is) available to technical staff. If a copy of the signed RAI response letter (will be) is emailed or faxed to the TSTF lead, it is this date.

Otherwise, it is the date at which the RAI response letter becomes available in ADAMS, permitting staff access (typically three days following receipt by the DPC).

Fed Reg NFC (e)

  • For TSTFs processed in accordance with the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Program (CLIIPd), this is the projected (actual) date that both the model application (Model LAR) and safety evaluation (Model SE) will become (are) Noticed in the Federal Register for public comment.

This milestone is N/A for non-CLIIPd TSTFs which are not typically Noticed to the Federal Register for public comment Fed Reg NOA (f)

  • For TSTFs processed in accordance with the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Program (CLIIPd), this is the projected (actual) date that both the model application (Model LAR) and safety evaluation (Model SE) will become (are) Advertised in the Federal Register as Available for Industry Adoption.

For non-CLIIPd TSTFs, there is no Fed Reg NOA. In this instance, this milestone reflects the earlier of the following dates: (i) The date at which the letter approving the TSTF will become (is) publically available in ADAMS (typically 6 days after being signed) or (ii) the date the signed letter will be (is) faxed or emailed to TSTF.
