San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Units 2 and 3 - Request for an Extension of the Fire Protection Enforcement Discretion (TAC Nos. ME5339 and ME5340) (ML110630175)
Dear Sir or Madam:
In accordance with Reference 1, and as approved by the Commission per Reference 2, Southern California Edison (SCE) commits to submit the License Amendment Request (LAR) implementing 10 CFR 50.48(c) for San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) Units 2 and 3 on March 31,2013.
P.O. Box 128 San Clemente, CA 92672 (949) 368-9275 PAX 89275 Fax: (949) 368-9881 Doug.Bauder@sce.com
Document Control Desk June 24, 2011 This is a change to the schedule submitted in Reference 3 with approval granted in Reference 4. This letter contains one new commitment for the LAR submittal date and no revisions to existing commitments.
As presented to the NRC during a public meeting on April 7, 2011 (ML110970641), SCE has performed a Fire Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) and conducted an industry peer review. SCE has also performed an initial fire risk evaluation for each fire area with variances from the deterministic requirements. During the LAR extension period,
SCE plans to make Fire PRA refinements to finalize fire risk evaluations and the identification of any risk-reducing plant changes. The LAR submittal will include completed and planned plant changes with an implementation schedule.
In addition, SCE requests that the enforcement discretion be extended to correspond to the LAR submittal commitment date. Per the enforcement discretion policy, once the LAR is submitted, the enforcement discretion would then continue until the NRC dispositions the LAR to transition to NFPA 805, consistent with Reference 1.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please contact Ms. Linda T. Conklin at 949-368-9443.
