Acceptance Review of TSTF-491 License Amendment Application Ms. Furio:
By letter dated August 28, 2008, Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Inc. submitted a license amendment for the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Unit Nos. 1 and 2. The proposed amendment would modify Technical Specification requirements by removing the specific isolation times for the main steam isolation valves from the associated surveillance requirements. The submittal is consistent with TSTF-491 and the associated CLIIP.
The purpose of this email is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff's acceptance review of this amendment request. The acceptance review was performed to determine if there is sufficient technical information in scope and depth to allow the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review. The acceptance review is also intended to identify whether the application has any readily apparent information insufficiencies in its characterization of the regulatory requirements or the licensing basis of the plant.
Consistent with Section 50.90 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), an amendment to the license (including the technical specifications) must fully describe the changes requested, and following as far as applicable, the form prescribed for original applications. Section 50.34 of 10 CFR addresses the content of technical information required.
This section stipulates that the submittal address the design and operating characteristics, unusual or novel design features, and principal safety considerations.
The NRC staff has reviewed your application and concludes that it provides technical information in sufficient detail to enable the staff to proceed with its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed amendment in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. If additional information is needed for the staff to complete its technical review, you will be advised by separate correspondence.
Consistent with our guidance in LIC-109 regarding acceptance reviews, a copy of this email will be placed in ADAMS as a publicly available document.
