Dear Sir or Madam:

Report Pursuant to 10 CFR 71.95 (a)(3) and (b) of two potential instances of noncompliance with Certificate of Compliance No. 9168/B(U)-96 for the 8-120B/002-8 Cask Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit 1 Docket No. 50-416 License No. NPF-29 1.

Energy Solutions Letter ES-CD-O-2015-002 - 10 CFR 71.95 Report on the 8-120B Cask Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy) hereby submits this report pursuant to Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 71.95(a)(3) and (b) regarding two potential instances in which the conditions of approval in Certificate of Compliance (CoC) for the 8-120B/002-8 Cask CoC No.

9168/B(U)-96 may not have been met when making shipments from Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS). The potential instances of noncompliance with the CoC occurred on October 27,2014 and November 10,2014.

Energy Solutions notified Entergy of their concerns associated with the CoC on June 24, 2015.

Entergy immediately investigated its shipment history to determine if the shipping package in question had been used by GGNS to ship radioactive materials. Two instances were identified. of this letter provides a detailed list of the CoC noncompliance instances. This attachment includes the shipment numbers, shipment dates, material shipped, and the final destination of each shipment.

Energy Solutions, in Reference 1, documented the as-built discrepancy and determined that the package was not adversely affected by the identified discrepancy. Further, their evaluation determined that the discrepancy did not represent a public health and safety concern. The bases for the conclusions were documented in Attachment to Energy Solutions Letter ES-CD-O-2015-002.

To prevent recurrence Entergy will work with its vendor to ensure all future shipments are made with a shipping package that is in full compliance with its associated CoCo
