BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 - ACCEPTANCE OF REQUESTED LICENSING ACTION RE: LICENSE AMENDMENT TO REVISE STEAM GENERATOR TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS (TAC NOS. MF6054 AND MF6055)

Dear Mr. Thomas Lentz,

By letter dated April 1, 2015 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML15092A569), FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company submitted a license amendment request for Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (BVPS). The proposed amendment would revise various Technical Specification (TS) sections associated with steam generators and would include changes that are consistent with the guidance provided in Technical Specification Task Force Traveler TSTF-510, Revision 2, Revision to Steam Generator Program Inspection Frequencies and Tube Sample Selection (ADAMS Accession No. ML110610350).

The purpose of this e-mail is to provide the results of the NRC staffs acceptance review of this amendment request. The acceptance review was performed to determine if there is sufficient technical information in scope and depth to allow the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review. The acceptance review is also intended to identify whether the application has any readily apparent information insufficiencies in its characterization of the regulatory requirements or the licensing basis of the plant.

Consistent with Section 50.90 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), an amendment to the license (including the technical specifications) must fully describe the changes requested, and following as far as applicable, the form prescribed for original applications. Section 50.34 of 10 CFR addresses the content of technical information required. This section stipulates that the submittal address the design and operating characteristics, unusual or novel design features, and principal safety considerations.

The NRC staff has reviewed your application and concluded that it does provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the staff to proceed with its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed amendment request in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. Given the lesser scope and depth of the acceptance review as compared to the detailed technical review, there may be instances in which issues that impact the NRC staffs ability to complete the detailed technical review are identified despite completion of an adequate acceptance review. You will be advised of any further information needed to support the NRC staffs detailed technical review by separate correspondence.

If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-7128.
