The proposed amendments would change Technical Specification (TS) 3.3.6.1, Primary Containment Isolation Instrumentation.

The NRC staff has reviewed the information that the licensee provided in support of its proposed license amendments. In order for the staff to complete its review, the licensee is requested to address the following requests for additional information.

RAI 1

Describe the response to a loss of shutdown cooling system integrity assuming the loss occurs when operating in a mode where 3.3.6.1 applies.
