Acceptance Review of Application for Technical Specification Change to Reflect Steam Generator Replacement By letter dated October 9, 2008, AmerGen Energy Company, LLC submitted a license amendment for Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (TMI-1). The proposed amendment would revise the TMI-1 technical specifications for the Steam Generator tube surveillance program to reflect the planned installation of replacement steam generators in the fall 2009 refueling outage. 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 Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 50.90, 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 concluded that it does provide 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.
