Dear Mr. Pitesa:

SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT 1 - ISSUANCE OF CORRECTED INDEMNITY AGREEMENT REGARDING DIRECT TRANSFER OF RENEWED FACILITY OPERA TING LICENSES TO DUKE ENERGY PROGRESS, INC.

By orders dated July 6, 2015 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML15189A228), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) approved direct license transfers from North Carolina Eastern Municipal Power Agency (NCEMPA) to Duke Energy Progress, Inc. (Duke Energy) for Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-71 and DPR-62, for Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2, and Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-63 for Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1. Accordingly, the Commission issued Amendment Nos. 267, 295, and 147 to Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-71, DPR-62, and NPF-63 to reflect the direct transfer of the licenses of the percent of ownership from NCEMPA to Duke Energy and removal of NCEMPA from the licenses.

As part of the direct license transfer, amended Indemnity Agreements were issued. In September 2015, the NRC requested that Duke provide a status of the original signed Indemnity Agreement Amendments for Brunswick and Harris. In the process, a typographical error was identified in the Harris Amendment. Enclosed is the corrected Harris Amendment No. 5 to Indemnity Agreement No. B-103.

Please sign the corrected copies enclosed and keep one original for your records. Please send one original to the NRC's document control desk for proof of acceptance.
