SUMMARY

OF TELEPHONE CONFERENCE CALL DAVIS-BESSE LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION January 24, 2012 The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the staff) and representatives of FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company (FENOC or the applicant) held a telephone conference call on January 24,2012, to discuss and clarify the following concern related to the Davis-Besse license renewal application (LRA).

MRP-227-A Implementation Discussion:

The purpose of the call was to discuss the pressurized water reactor (PWR) Reactor Vessel Internals Program and how the applicant plans to implement MRP-227-A, "Materials Reliability Program: Pressurized Water Reactor Internals Inspection and Evaluation Guidelines (MRP-227 -A)."

The staff wanted to know the applicant's plans to address any differences between MRP-227 and MRP-227 -A. The applicant stated that a review of MRP-227-A dated December 2011, against the previous version of MRP-227 dated December 2008, was in progress to identify any changes needed to the Davis-Besse PWR Reactor Vessel Internals (RVI) Program or to the aging management review (AMR) results provided in License Renewal Application (LRA) Table 3.1.2-2, "Aging Management Review Results - Reactor Vessel Internals." The applicant noted that, at a minimum, several changes are required to LRA Table 3.1.2-2.

The staff indicated that the reconciliation of the differences would become an open item and that the changes should be sent as soon as possible. The staff indicated the response should be tied to a previous RVI request for additional information (RAI). The staff is to provide the RAI number.

The applicant stated that it will provide the response as soon as pOSSible, but no later than the Davis-Besse Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) subcommittee meeting scheduled for April 10, 2012. The staff requested the applicant to be very clear as to what has and what has not changed, and to identify what was reviewed.

There was no further discussion, and the call was concluded.
