UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Mr. Richard Michael Glover Site Vice President H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant Duke Energy Progress, Inc.
3581 West Entrance Road, RNPA01 Hartsville, SC 29550 May 11, 201 6
SUBJECT:
H. B. ROBINSON STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NO. 2 - CORRECTION OF IMPLEMENTATION DATE FOR LICENSE AMENDMENT NO. 245 REGARDING ADOPTION OF EMERGENCY ACTION LEVEL SCHEME PURSUANT TO NEI 99-01, REVISION 6, "DEVELOPMENT OF EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS FOR NON-PASSIVE REACTORS" (CAC NO. MF6222)
Dear Mr. Glover:
On April 28, 2016, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Amendment No. 245 to Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR-23 for the H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant Unit No. 2 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML16061A472). This amendment was in response to your application dated May 13, 2015, as supplemented by letter dated November 19, 2015. The amendment revised the emergency action level scheme to a scheme based on Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) document NEI 99-01, Revision 6, "Development of Emergency Action Levels for Non-Passive Reactors," dated November 2012. NEI 99-01, Revision 6, was endorsed by the NRC by letter dated March 28, 2013.
After issuance of the amendments, we found that the amendment implementation date did not reflect the requested date in the licensee's November 19, 2015, submittal. The originally requested implementation period of 180 days will not support the licensee's needs since the NRC completed its review and issuance of the amendment earlier than anticipated. Thus, we have corrected the implementation date of the amendment. We ask that you please refer to the revised enclosure provided with this letter.
We regret any inconvenience this may have caused. If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-6256 or Dennis.Galvin@nrc.gov.
