Acceptance Review of License Amendment Request to Eliminate Certain Three Mile Island, Unit 1 Reporting Requirements Date: Monday, February 25, 2013 10:57:00 AM By letter dated February 4, 2013, Exelon Generation Company, LLC submitted a license amendment request for Three Mile Island Nuclear Station (TMI), Unit 1, proposing to amend the TMI, Unit 1, Technical Specifications (TSs) to delete various reporting requirements contained in the TSs. Specifically, the proposed amendment will delete the Sealed Source Contamination Special Report and the Startup Report, as well as the plant-specific annual reports regarding periodic Leak Reduction Program tests, Pressurizer Power Operated Relief Valve and Pressurizer Safety Valve challenges, specific activity analysis in which the primary coolant exceeds the limits of TS 3.1.4.1, and major changes to radioactive waste treatment systems.

The purpose of this email is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff's acceptance review of this amendment 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 does provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the staff to proceed with its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed license amendment in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. If additional information is needed for the staff to complete its technical review, you will be advised by separate correspondence.
