SUBJECT:

RIVER BEND STATION, UNIT 1 - CORRECTION TO AMENDMENT NO. 185, CORRECTED LICENSE PAGE, AND SAFETY EVALUATION RELATED TO LICENSE AMENDMENT NO. 185 RE: ADOPTION OF TSTF-423, REVISION 1, "TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS END STATES, NEDC-32988-A" (TAC NO. MF2299)

Dear Sir or Madam:

On February 27, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued License Amendment No. 185 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-47 for the River Bend Station, Unit 1 (RBS). The amendment is publicly available in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) at Accession No. ML14106A167. The amendment consists of changes to the Technical Specifications (TSs) in response to your application dated June 13, 2013, as supplemented by letters dated August 28 and November 3, 2014, and January 22, 2015. The amendment revised the TSs to risk-inform requirements regarding selected Required Action end states.

The NRC staff has subsequently identified three discrepancies in the electronically filed version of the amendment. First, the electronic version did not include the signed amendment document (pages 1, 2, and 3; Enclosure 1). Among other things, this provides the staff findings, implementation date, and proper signature authority to approve the amendment. Additionally, corrected license page 6d (Enclosure 2) was omitted from the electronic version. This page included the deletion of item 2.C(21) as a result of the changes to item 2.C(20) as part of this license amendment. Also missing from the electronic version is page 1O of the safety evaluation (Enclosure 3).

Enclosed are the three omitted pages of Amendment No. 185, corrected license page 6d, and page 10 of the safety evaluation. This correction does not change any of the NRC staff's conclusions in the SE associated with the amendment. We apologize for any problems caused by this omission.

Sincerely, c~l LA>~J' Alan B. Wang, Project Manager Plant Licensing IV-2 and Decommissioning Transition Branch Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-458
