Acceptance Review for Ginna TAC No. ME7731 Mr. Harding:

By letter dated December 16, 2011 (TAC No. ME7731), R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, LLC submitted relief request ISI-05 for the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. The relief request proposes an alternative to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a with respect to examinations of the bottom mounted reactor vessel instrument penetrations.

The purpose of this e-mail is to provide the results of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staffs acceptance review of this relief 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.

The NRC staff has reviewed your application and concluded that it provides technical information in sufficient detail to enable the staff to complete its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding its acceptability in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. Given the lesser scope and depth of the acceptance review as compared to the detailed technical review, there may be instances in which issues that impact the NRC staffs ability to complete the detailed technical review are identified despite completion of an adequate acceptance review. If additional information is needed, you will be advised by separate correspondence.

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