SUBJECT:
FINAL SAFETY EVALUATION FOR BOILING WATER REACTORS OWNERS=
GROUP (BWROG) LICENSING TOPICAL REPORT (LTR) NEDE-33213P, "APPLICATION FOR STABILITY LICENSING CALCULATIONS INCLUDING OPTION I-D AND II LONG TERM SOLUTIONS" (TAC NO. MD5743)
Dear Mr. Coleman:
By letter dated June 5, 2007, the BWROG submitted LTR NEDE-33213P, "ODYSY Application for Stability Licensing Calculations Including Option I-D and II Long Term Solutions," to the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff. By letter dated July 28, 2008, an NRC draft safety evaluation (SE) regarding our approval of LTR NEDE-33213P was provided for your review and comments. By letter dated October 31, 2008, the BWROG commented on the draft SE. The NRC staff's disposition of BWROG=s comments on the draft SE are discussed in the attachments to the proprietary and non-proprietary versions of the final SE enclosed with this letter.
The NRC staff has found that LTR NEDE-33213P is acceptable for referencing in licensing applications for General Electric-designed boiling water reactors to the extent specified and under the limitations delineated in the LTR and in the enclosed final SE. The final SE defines the basis for our acceptance of the LTR.
Our acceptance applies only to material provided in the subject LTR. We do not intend to repeat our review of the acceptable material described in the LTR. When the LTR appears as a reference in license applications, our review will ensure that the material presented applies to the specific plant involved. License amendment requests that deviate from this LTR will be subject to a plant-specific review in accordance with applicable review standards.
In accordance with the guidance provided on the NRC website, we request that BWROG publish accepted proprietary and non-proprietary versions of this LTR within three months of receipt of this letter. The accepted versions shall incorporate this letter and the enclosed final SE after the title page, including the historical review information, NRC requests for additional information, and your responses. The accepted versions shall include an "-A" (designating accepted) following the LTR identification symbol.
If future changes to the NRC's regulatory requirements affect the acceptability of this LTR, the BWROG and/or licensees referencing it will be expected to revise the LTR appropriately, or justify its continued applicability for subsequent referencing.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Sheri L. Bone, Acting Deputy Director Division of Policy and Rulemaking Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Project No. 691
