SUMMARY

OF TELEPHONE CONFERENCE CALL DAVIS-BESSE NUCLEAR POWER STATION LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION August 22, 2013 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 August 22, 2013, to discuss and clarify the license conditions related to the applicant's commitment (Commitment No. 15) to provide an inspection plan for the aging management of reactor vessel internals at Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station.

License Conditions on Commitment No. 15 Previous to the call, in order to provide FENOC an opportunity to comment on the license conditions, the staff provided the proposed license conditions as they are on the Draft Final Safety Evaluation Report. The proposed generic license conditions state the following:

The second license condition states that the applicant's USAR supplement submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 54.21 (d), as supplemented by Appendix A of the "Safety Evaluation Report Related to the License Renewal of Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station," describes certain future programs and activities to be completed before the period of extended operation.

a. The applicant shall implement those new programs and enhancements to existing programs no later than October 22, 2016, (i.e., no later than 6 months prior to the period PEO).

b. The applicant shall complete those activities as noted in Commitment Nos. 26, 33 (Phase 1, Action 1; Phase 2, Action 1), 35 (Phase 1), 37 (Phase 1), 39 (Phase 1) by December 31, 2014. The applicant shall complete those activities as noted in Commitment No. 15 by April 22, 2015. The applicant shall complete those activities as noted in Commitment Nos. 23, 33 (Phase 1, Action 2), 38, 44, and 48, no later than October 22, 2016.

The proposed new license condition states the following:

Perform inspections and replacements in accordance with Section 4 of MRP-227 -A, "Materials Reliability Program: Pressurized Water Reactor Internals Inspection and Evaluation Guidelines (MRP-227-A)," including components described in Applicant/Licensee Action Items 4, 6, or 7 of the NRC Safety Evaluation, Revision 1, on MRP-227, unless a plant-specific inspection plan has been approved by the NRC staff.

Discussion: The staff asked whether FENOC had any comments on the proposed new license condition. FENOC expressed concern regarding the phrase of the new license condition which reads, "unless a plant-specific inspection plan has been approved by the NRC staff." The staff explained that once the initial Davis-Besse plant-specific reactor vessel internals inspection plan is approved by the NRC, then the requirements of the license condition would be satisfied.

Following discussion, FENOC agreed to the proposed new license condition.

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