SUBJECT:

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING NINE MILE POINT NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT NO. 2 - RE: THE STEAM DRYER REVIEW OF THE LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST FOR EXTENDED POWER UPRATE OPERATION (TAC NO. ME1476)

Dear Mr. Belcher:

By letter dated May 27, 2009, as supplemented on August 28 and December 23, 2009, February 19, April 16, May 7, June 3, June 30, and July 30, 2010, Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, LLC, submitted for Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff review and approval, a proposed license amendment requesting an increase in the maximum steady-state power level from 3467 megawatts thermal (MWt) to 3988 MWt for Nine Mile Point Unit No. 2 extended power uprate operation.

The NRC staff is reviewing the information provided in that letter and has determined that additional information is needed to support its review. Enclosed is the NRC staffs request for additional information (RAI). The RAI was discussed with your staff on September 23 and October 1, 2010, and it was agreed that your response would be provided within 30 days from the date of this letter.

Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.390, we have determined that the enclosed RAI contains proprietary information. The NRC staff has prepared a non-proprietary version of the RAI (Enclosure 1) that does not contain proprietary information. The proprietary information is indicated in brackets and underlined in Enclosure 2.

Sincerely,

/RA/
