1. Letter dated April 5, 2016, from L.W.Newman, AREVA, to Mr. Thomas Allen, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc, "Annual 1 OCFR50.46 Reporting for Palisades"

Dear Sir or Madam:

Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO) is submitting the annual report of changes in the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) models for the Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP). The report is submitted in accordance with 10 CFR 50.46(a)(3)(ii).

Attachme"nt 1 contains the large break loss of coolant accident (LOCA) peak clad temperature (PCT) summary. Attachment 2 contains the small break LOCA PCT summary. There have been no changes to either the small or large break LOCA PCT summary since the previous annual report. This report covers the period from January 1, 2015, through December 31, 2015.

PNP 2016-030 Document Control Desk Page2 This letter contains no new commitments and no revisions to existing commitments.

Sincerely, JAH/bed Attachment 1: Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident Peak Cladding Temperature Summary Attachment 2: Small Break Loss of Coolant Accident Peak Cladding Temperature Summary CC Administrator, Region Ill, USNRC Project Manager, Palisades, USNRC Resident Inspector, Palisades, USNRC ATTACHMENT 1 LARGE BREAK LOSS OF COOLANT ACCIDENT PEAK CLADDING TEMPERATURE
