Bryan, By letter dated December 13, 2011, Entergy Operations Inc. submitted a license amendment request for the above subject plants. The proposed amendment requests approval of proposed changes to the Quality Assurance Program Manual (QAPM) and Technical Specifications (TS) for the above subject plants.

The proposed changes standardize unit staff qualification requirements for the Entergy fleet. Some proposed changes to the QAPM are a reduction in commitment, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(a)(4), NRC approval is required prior to implementation.

The related TS changes for unit staff qualifications were requested in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90.

The NRC Staff has reviewed the amendment request and determined that we require additional information to complete our review. A request for additional information is attached.

The staff requests you to provide a response to the RAI within 30 days from the date of this email. If this is not feasible, please let me know, in advance, when the response will be sent.

Thanks Kaly N, Kalyanam PM, Waterford 3 and ANO 1 & 2 NRR/DORL/LPL4
