SUBJECT:
CLINTON POWER STATION, UNIT NO. 1; DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 2 AND 3; LASALLE COUNTY STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2; LIMERICK GENERATING STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2; OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION; PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION, UNITS 2, AND 3; AND QUAD CITIES NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 - CORRECTION OF SAFETY EVALUATION SUPPORTING RELIEF REQUEST AUTHORIZATION TO USE BOILING-WATER REACTOR VESSEL AND INTERNALS PROJECT GUIDELINES IN LIEU OF SPECIFIC AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS CODE REQUIREMENTS (TAC NOS. MD5352 THRU MD5363)
Dear Mr. Pardee,
On April 30, 2008, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff issued a letter authorizing relief from the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50.55a, for the subject plants in response to your letter dated April 19, 2007, as supplemented by letters dated October 5, 2007, January 8, and April 4, 2008.
Subsequent to its issuance, Mr. Tom Loomis of your staff identified a typographical error on page 2 of Attachment 1, wherein the marking for Note 2 (i.e., (2)) was omitted from the table cell containing the BWRVIP Exam Scope for the Shroud Support Weld (Weld H9). The NRC staff has verified that the note was included in the application for relief and was considered by the NRC staff as part of its review, and that omission from the April 30, 2008, letter, was a typographical error. The error has been corrected in the attached page 2 of Attachment 1; please use it to replace corresponding page in the April 30, 2008, safety evaluation (SE).
These corrections do not change the conclusion reached in the SE. We regret any inconvenience these errors may have caused.
If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-1055.
Sincerely,
/RA/
