SUBJECT:
PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - ISSUANCE OF SECURITY PLAN REV. 1 CORRECTIONS (TAC NOS. MC8690 AND MC8691)
Dear Mr. Wadley:
By letter dated April 20, 2007, Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) provided Nuclear Management Company, LLC, the approval for Revision 1 of the physical security plan (PSP),
training and qualification plan (T&QP), and safeguards contingency plan (SCP) for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2. The approval revised page 3 of the facility operating licenses to reflect Revision 1 of the combined set of security plans (security plan).
However, the changes to the licenses were incorrectly transmitted as amendments. In addition, the amendment nos. and the date of the letter were missing from the footer on the revised license pages, and Section 2.C(3) incorrectly listed Amendments 175 and 165 as latest amendment rather than Amendments 177 and 167 for Units 1 and 2, respectively. As a result, when Amendment Nos. 178 and 168 were issued on May 30, 2007, Revision 0 of the security plan was inadvertently reinstated. Thus, the enclosure to this letter provides the corrected license pages. These corrections are administrative license changes to the correct the errors introduced when conforming Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-42 and DPR-60 to NRC Orders EA-03-086 and EA-06-037.
Please replace the affected pages with the enclosed correct pages. We regret any inconvenience that may have been caused by this error. If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-8371.
Sincerely,
/RA/

NUCLEAR MANAGEMENT COMPANY, LLC DOCKET NO. 50-282 PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNIT 1 ADMINISTRATIVE LICENSE CHANGE TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE License No. DPR-42 1.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has found that:
A.
When the Commission issued EA-03-086, the Order requiring compliance with the revised design bases threat, (DBT Order) on April 29, 2003, the Commission determined that conforming administrative license changes to facility operating licenses (FOLs) were required to ensure implementation of the DBT Order requirements and the FOLs were consistent. A supplemental set of adversary characteristics of the DBT was provided to all power reactor licenses in Order EA-06-037 Updated Adversary Characteristic Order, dated March 20, 2006. Therefore, an administrative license change to FOL No. DPR-42 is being made to incorporate the reference to the revised Physical Security Plan, Safeguards Contingency and Plan, and Training and Qualification Plan required by both DBT Orders, that complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commissions rules and regulations set forth in 10 CFR Chapter I; B.
The facility will operate in conformity with the application, the provisions of the Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission; C.
There is reasonable assurance (i) that the activities authorized by this administrative license change can be conducted without endangering the health and safety of the public, and (ii) that such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations; D.
The issuance of this administrative license change will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public; and E.
The issuance of this administrative license change is in accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 of the Commission's regulations and all applicable requirements have been satisfied.
2.
Accordingly, the FOL is changed as indicated in the attachment.
3.
This administrative license change is effective as of the date of its issuance and shall be implemented upon issuance.
