Acceptance Review for Calvert Cliffs TAC Nos. ME3696/ME3697 Ms. Furio:

By letter dated April 5, 2010, Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, LLC submitted a license amendment request for Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (TAC Nos.

ME3696/ME3697). The proposed amendment would modify the Technical Specifications by:

1) Replacing plant specific titles in Calvert Cliffs Technical Specification 5.0, Administrative Controls, with generic titles consistent with Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) 65, Rev 1,

2) Implementing changes to more closely align selected Technical Specifications with NUREG-1432, and

3) Implementing administrative word changes to selected Technical Specifications.

The purpose of this letter is to provide the results of the 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 proposal 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.

A copy of this email will be made publicly available in ADAMS. Please contact me if you have any questions.
