SUBJECT:
CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 (CATAWBA); MCGUIRE NUCLEAR STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 (MCGUIRE); OCONEE NUCLEAR STATION, UNITS 1, 2, AND 3 (OCONEE) - GENERIC LETTER 2008-01, MANAGING GAS ACCUMULATION IN EMERGENCY CORE COOLING, DECAY HEAT REMOVAL, AND CONTAINMENT SPRAY SYSTEMS, RESPONSE TO EXTENSION REQUEST (TAC NOS. MD7809, MD7810, MD7843, MD7844, MD7852, MD7853, AND MD7854)
Dear Mr. Harrall:
Generic Letter (GL) 2008-01, Managing Gas Accumulation In Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, And Containment Spray Systems, requests licensees to submit information to demonstrate that the emergency core cooling, decay heat removal, and containment spray systems are in compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements, and that suitable design, operational, and testing control measures are in place for maintaining this compliance.
GL 2008-01 states that each licensee is requested to submit a written response within 9-months to provide requested information and that if a licensee cannot meet the requested 9-month response date, a 3-month written response is required that describes the alternative course of action that it proposes to take, including the basis for the acceptability of the proposed alternative course of action.
By letter dated April 9, 2008, you stated that during an April 8, 2008, phone call with Mr. Jared Wermiel, Deputy Director, Division of Safety Systems, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), you requested a 30-day extension for the 3-month response. You stated that the extension was necessary due to evolving expectations related to the 9-month response. Mr. Wermiel agreed to the extension to allow the 3-month response to be submitted no later than May 9, 2008.
This letter is to formally acknowledge the approval of the requested extension to the due date for submitting the 3-month response to GL 2008-01 and to document the telephone call with the NRC staff. Specifically, you requested an extension for providing the above 3-month response from April 11, 2008, to May 9, 2008, at Catawba, McGuire, and Oconee. We find that your justification to extend the due date for the 3-month written response to GL 2008-01 to May 9, 2008, is acceptable for granting your extension request. This letter does not alter or change the requested 9-month response date of October 11, 2008.
T. Harrall, Jr.
By letter dated May 8, 2008, you submitted a 3-month response to GL 2008-01 for Catawba, McGuire, and Oconee. We will evaluate your proposed alternative course of action (3-month response) for responding to GL 2008-01 and will respond appropriately. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please feel free to contact Mr. Leonard N. Olshan at 301 415-1419.
Sincerely,
/RA/
