November 5, 2010 MEMORANDUM TO: Harold K. Chernoff, Chief Plant Licensing Branch I-2 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation FROM:

G. Edward Miller, Project Manager /ra/

Plant Licensing Branch I-2 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation

SUBJECT:

OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION - ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION, DRAFT REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO MODIFY REQUIRED ACTIONS FOR INOPERABILITY OF AN EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR (TAC NO. ME4141)

The attached draft request for additional information (RAI) was transmitted by electronic transmission on November 5, 2010 to Mr. Frank Mascitelli, at Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon, the licensee). This draft RAI was transmitted to facilitate the technical review being conducted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff and to support a conference call with Exelon in order to clarify the licensees amendment request dated June 25, 2010 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML101790064), to modify required actions for an inoperable emergency diesel generator. The draft questions were sent to ensure that they were understandable, the regulatory basis was clear, and to determine if the information was previously docketed. Additionally, review of the draft RAI would allow Exelon to evaluate and agree upon a schedule to respond to the RAI. This memorandum and the attachment do not represent an NRC staff position.

Docket Nos. 50-219

1. The second paragraph of the No Significant Hazards Consideration response to question one states, in part, Additionally, the proposed changes do not involve any physical changes to plant systems, structures, or components (SSC), or the manner in which these SSC are operated, maintained, or controlled.
