1.

Introduction Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy) developed an Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) for Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 1 (ANO-1) and Unit 2 (ANO-2) (Reference 1), documenting the diverse and flexible strategies (FLEX) in response to Reference 2. The OIP was updated and submitted with the First Six-Month Status Report (Reference 3). This enclosure provides an update of milestone accomplishments since submittal of the last status report (Reference 7), including any changes to the compliance method, schedule, or need for relief/relaxation and the basis, if any.

2.

Milestone Accomplishments The following milestone(s) have been completed since August 1, 2014, and are current as of January 31, 2015:

Third Six-Month Status Report August 2014 Perform Staffing Assessment - September 2014 Develop Strategies with National SAFER Response Center - November 2014 Install Off-site Delivery Station - October 2014 Fourth Six-Month Status Report Complete with submission of this document in February 2015

3.

Milestone Schedule Status The following provides an update to the milestone schedule to support the OIP. It provides the activity status of each item, and whether the expected completion date has changed. The dates are planning dates subject to change as design and implementation details are developed.

Changes to Compliance Method There are no additional changes to the compliance method as documented in the OIP (Reference 1).

5.

Need for Relief/Relaxation and Basis for the Relief/Relaxation Entergy expects to comply with the order implementation date for ANO-2. As part of a separate submittal (Reference 4), Entergy requested an extension for ANO-1 for no later than startup of ANO-2 from refueling outage 2R24 currently scheduled for fall 2015. The request was submitted to support the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) inventory control strategy associated with the alternate power connection for the Charging Pump. The request included two commitments. This request for relief/relaxation for ANO-1 with the two commitments was approved by the NRC via Reference 5. Subsequent to approval by the NRC of the relief/relaxation associated with the two commitments, Entergy determined that ANO-1 implementation of NRC Order EA-12-049 prior to implementation at ANO-2 was a less optimal action than a coordinated ANO-1 and ANO-2 implementation. As part of an additional separate submittal (Reference 8), Entergy has withdrawn the two commitments in the submittal of Reference 4. Based on the Reference 8 submittal, the ANO-1 full order compliance date is startup from 2R24 (fall 2015). The justification for this commitment withdrawal was provided in Reference 8.

6.

Open Items from OIP and Interim Staff Evaluation (ISE)

The following tables provide a summary and status of any open items documented in the OIP and any open items or confirmatory items documented in the ISE (Reference 6). A fourth table includes a listing of Audit Questions and the status of each item.

OIP Open Items Status There were no open items documented in the ANO OIP.

N/A ISE Open Items Status 3.2.1.D The NRC Staff has reviewed the ANO approach that uses the ANO-2 charging pump to supply makeup to the ANO-1 RCS for inventory control but has not concluded that this approach is acceptable. The Staff has identified a number of concerns that need to be addressed regarding the proposed RCS inventory control strategy.

Therefore, this open item tracks completion of the development of an acceptable integrated RCS makeup strategy that meets the requirements of Order EA-12-049.

Potential ISE Impacts The following items have been identified which have potential impact to the ISE except for those identified in Section 6.

1.

ISE/TER Section 3.2.1, Page 29, the TER states, the Boric Acid Makeup Tanks, Refueling Water Tank, Borated Water Storage Tank or the new borated water tank will provide this function. Currently, there are no plans to install a new borated water tank.

Instead, Entergy is pursuing applying Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.76, Revision 1, to the borated water storage tanks available at the site to qualify additional borated water through a finite element analysis.

2.

ISE/TER Section 3.2.4.7, Page 66, the TER states, For high wind BDBEEs, a new borated water storage tank, which Currently, Entergy has no plans to install a new borated water tank. Instead, Entergy is pursuing applying RG 1.76, Revision 1, to the borated water storage tanks available at the site to qualify additional borated water through a finite element analysis.

3.

ISE/TER Section 3.2.4.7, Page 67, the TER states, This 30-minute action to manually align valves in the intake structure will be validated during the procedure development phase and staffing assessment. For a high wind missile event that damages the Qualified Condensate Storage Tank (QCST), performing the valve realignments within 30 minutes for both units has been determined to be non-viable. It has been determined that the manipulation of the valves at the intake structure will take 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> and 30 minutes. Therefore, to qualify additional QCST inventory to at least 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, to allow enough time for aligning this new permanently installed crosstie between the Fire Water and the Service Water systems, Entergy is currently pursuing applying RG 1.76, Revision 1, Design Basis Tornado and Tornado Missiles for Nuclear Power Plants, to the QCST to qualify additional water through a finite element analysis.

4.

ISE/TER Section 3.2.4.7, Page 68, the TER states, A new borated water tank will be installed for coping with FLEX following high wind BDBEEs. Currently, Entergy has no plans to install a new borated water tank. Instead, Entergy is pursuing applying RG 1.76, Revision 1, to the borated water storage tanks available at the site to qualify additional borated water through a finite element analysis.
