SUBJECT:

BRAIDWOOD STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 - INDIVIDUAL NOTICE OF CONSIDERATION OF ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE, PROPOSED NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION, AND OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING RE: STEAM GENERATOR PROGRAM (TAC NOS. MD8158 AND MD8159)

Dear Mr. Pardee:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has forwarded the enclosed ANotice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment to Renewed Facility Operating License, Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination, and Opportunity for a Hearing,@ to the Office of the Federal Register for publication.

This notice relates to your application dated February 25, 2008 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML080560512), to revise the Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2 (Braidwood), Technical Specification (TS) 5.5.9, Steam Generator (SG) Program, and TS 5.6.9, Steam Generator Tube Inspection Report. For TS 5.5.9, the amendment would replace the existing alternate repair criteria (ARC) in the provisions for SG tube repair criteria during Braidwood, Unit 2, refueling outage 13 and the subsequent operating cycle. For TS 5.6.9, three new reporting requirements are proposed to be added to the existing seven requirements. The proposed changes would only affect Braidwood, Unit 2, however this is docketed for Braidwood, Units 1 and 2, since the TS are common to Units 1 and 2.

If you have any questions, please contact me at 301-415-5735 or via e-mail at MMT@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
