SUBJECT:

NINE MILE POINT NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT NO. 2- CORRECTION LEITER TO AMENDMENT NO. 151 RE: MAXIMUM EXTENDED LOAD LINE LIMIT ANALYSIS PLUS (CAC NO. MF3056)

Dear Mr. Hanson:

By letter dated September 2, 2015 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML15230A487), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Amendment No. 151, "Maximum Extended Load Line Limit Analysis Plus" (MELLLA+), to Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-69 for the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit No. 2 (NMP2). The amendment consists of changes to the technical specifications (TSs) in response to your application transmitted by letter dated November 1, 2013, as supplemented by letters dated January 21, February 14, February 25, March 10, May 14, June 13, October 10, December 11, 2014, and February 18, 2015.

By emails dated September 29 and October 21, 2015 (non-publicly available), and the discussion with your staff on October 21, 2015, they identified: (1) a correction to TS page 3.3.1.1-9, and (2) several instances where the publicly-available MELLLA+ safety evaluation (SE) (ADAMS Accession No. ML15223B144) contained sensitive proprietary information that has been submitted previously by the licensee and approved by the NRC for withholding from public disclosure in accordance with Section 2.390 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (1 O CFR). The NRG acknowledges the error on the TS page, as well as associated portions of the NRC SE that should have been withheld from public disclosure in accordance with Secf1on 2.390 of 10 CFR, and has replaced the publicly-available version of the MELLLA+

SE, in its entirety, in ADAMS under the existing Accession No. ML152238144.

NOTICE: Enclosure 3 to this letter contains Sensitive Proprietary Information Upon separation from the Enclosure 3, this letter is DECONTROLLED OFFICIAL USE ONLY SENSl'fl1t'E PROPFUETARV INFORMATION

Also, for consistency, the non-publicly available version of the MELLLA+ SE has been updated and replaced in ADAMS under the existing Accession No. ML15195A257.

These corrections do not change the amendment pages of the license or any of the conclusions in the SE associated with the amendment, and do not affect the associated notice to the public.

Please contact me at 301-415-3308 if you have any questions.
