Verbal Approval of Relief Request RR-ENG-3-08 for South Texas Project, Unit 2-TAC ME8159 Mike:

STP Nuclear Operating Company (STPNOC, the licensee) requested for approval of Relief Request (RR) RR-ENG-3-08 by letter dated March 12, 2012, as supplemented by letter dated April 10, 2012. On April 13, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff authorized the relief request verbally. The RR is valid only up to October 28, 2012. The licensee committed to replacing the valves in question by October 28, 2012.

Please note that the verbal authorization does not preclude the NRC staff from asking additional clarification questions regarding RR RR-ENG-3-08, while preparing the subsequent safety evaluation.

Thanks.
