SUBJECT:

H. B. ROBINSON STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT 2 - ACCEPTANCE OF REQUESTED LICENSING ACTION REGARDING DUKE ENERGY PROGRESS, INC. APPLICATION FOR PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE EMERGENCY PLAN Dr. Mr. Richard M. Glover:

By letter dated May 13, 2015 (Agencywide Document Access and Management System Accession No. ML15133A452), Duke Energy Progress, Inc. (Duke Energy), submitted a request, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90 and 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, "Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities,"Section IV.B, to change the H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Emergency Plan. Duke Energy is proposing to change the Emergency Action Levels (EALs) from a scheme based upon Revision 4 of Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 99-01, "Methodology for Development of Emergency Action Levels," to one based upon Revision 6 of NEI 99-01, "Development of Emergency Action Levels for Non-Passive Reactors." The purpose of this email is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (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.

The NRC staff has reviewed your application and concluded that it does provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed amendment 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. If additional information is needed, you will be advised by separate correspondence.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, I may be reached at Martha.Barillas@nrc.gov or at 301-415-2760.
