SUMMARY
OF TELEPHONE CONFERENCE CALL HELD ON DECEMBER 17, 2009, BETWEEN THE U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION AND ENTERGY OPERATIONS, INC. REGARDING PROGRESS ON NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION (NFPA) STANDARD 805 TRANSITION ACTIVITIES A teleconference was held between representatives of Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO) and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff to discuss progress on the Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP) National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 805 transition activities. ENO submitted "Palisades NFPA 805 Project Milestones" table (see Enclosure 1) which provides the list of NFPA 805 transition activities and their status. The licensee reported that significant schedule delays have occurred due to increase in the work scope and the availability of the resources. The NRC staff expressed concerns with the progress on this project and requested the licensee to conduct these conference calls on a monthly basis. The licensee has also changed the final completion date for the project from March 31, 2010, to August 20, 2010. provides the list of all attendees.

1 The original milestone dates per schedule PLP 805 51-3 VV1FC Schedule 12NOVQB and are subject to change. The current schedule (805 59 1 U 07DEC09) dates were validated to be on or before these dates unless otherwise noted.
2 "On Track" means that the task current percentage completed is: the expected completion percent and the expected completion date for the task is projected to be met.
3 Start dates provided are estimates and may vary contingent upon predecessor completion and available resources at that time. Even if this start date is adjusted, the completion date is still expected to be met unless indicated otherwise.
Comments:
All uncompleted task dates have been extended as a result of the change to the 2nd pilot plant SER date. These dates may change es schedule validation and adjustment. and resource optimization. continue due to the schedule changes resulting from the 2nd pilot plant SER date change.
