.fil UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 February 1, 2007 Mr. Christopher M. Crane President and Chief Nuclear Officer AmerGen Energy Company, LLC 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555

SUBJECT:

BRAIDWOOD STATION, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 - ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE COMMISSION ORDER EA-06-037 REVISIONS TO PHYSICAL SECURITY PLAN, TRAINING AND QUALIFICATION PLAN, AND SAFEGUARDS CONTINGENCY PLAN (TAC NOS. MD2196 AND MD2197)

Dear Mr. Crane:

By letter to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) dated May 17, 2006, Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon), submitted its revised plans and confirmed the full implementation at Braidwood Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (Braidwood) of Order EA-06-037 regarding an updated adversary characteristic of the design basis threat (DBT).

The NRC staff has completed its review of the changes related to implementation of Order EA-06-037. As discussed in the enclosed safeguards evaluation (Enclosure 2), the NRC staff has determined that the licensee's changes to the security plans meet the requirements of the NRC Order and Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 73 requirements and are, therefore, acceptable. The effectiveness of these security provisions will continue to be the subject of NRC review and inspection.

Consistent with the Order an administrative license change to Facility Operating License Nos.

NPF-72 and NPF-77 is being made to incorporate the reference to the revised Physical Security Plan, Safeguards Contingency Plan, and Training and Qualification Plan. This change complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the Commission's rules and regulations set forth in 10 CFR Chapter I. Please replace Page 5 of Facility Operating License NPF-72 and Page 6 of Facility Operating License NPF-77 (Enclosure 1).

NOTICE: Enclosure 2 contains Security-Related Information. Upon separation from Enclosure 2, this letter and Enclosure 1 are DECONTROLLED.
