Draft I&C RAI.docx

George, The NRC staffs draft RAI for the subject LAR is attached to this e-mail. The draft RAI is not an official NRC staff request and is being provided to you to facilitate a subsequent conference call to determine: 1) If the questions clearly convey the NRC staff information needs; 2) Whether the regulatory basis for the questions is understood; and 3) Whether the information is already available in existing, docketed, correspondence. After youve had a chance to review the draft information request, please contact me to schedule the conference call.

Also, please note that these are questions from the instrumentation & Control portion of the review. There may be additional questions from the Balance of Plant portion. Given the truncated review schedule, I wanted to pass questions along as I received them.

Thank you.
