Dear Mr. Bhatnagar:

By letter dated February 15, 2008 (Agencywide Document and Management System Accession No. ML080510469), the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) transmitted the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement for the completion and operation of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN), Unit 2. By letter dated June 3, 2008 (ML081210270), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff requested supplemental information in support of the staffs review. By letters dated July 2, 2008 (ML081850460), and January 27, 2009 (ML090360588), TVA responded to the NRC staffs request.

The NRC contractor, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and the NRC staff have reviewed pertinent documents related to WBN Unit 2; interviewed members of the local, State, and Federal governments; and met with TVA during a site audit conducted October 6 - 8, 2009.

The NRC staff has reviewed the information provided by TVA and has determined that additional information is required to complete its review. The specific questions are detailed in the enclosed request for additional information (RAI). Based on discussions with your staff, we understand that you plan to respond to the enclosed RAI within 15 days of the date of this letter.

We also understand that you will identify responses that will not be in the 15 day response and provide a response date.

Sincerely,

/RA/
