Acceptance Review for Byron, Unit 2, Relief Request I4R-08
- Mitch, By letter dated April 15, 2016 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML16106A116), Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon), submitted relief request I4R-08, requesting approval to defer Code-required volumetric examination of specific Byron Station, Unit 2, reactor vessel full penetration pressure retaining Examination Category B-A and B-D welds. The request is applicable to Byron Station Unit 2. The purpose of this e-mail is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staffs acceptance review of this request. Acceptance reviews for the other relief requests submitted in your April 15, 2016, letter will be provided separately. The acceptance review was performed to determine if there is sufficient technical information in scope and depth to allow the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review. The acceptance review is also intended to identify whether the application has any readily apparent information insufficiencies in its characterization of the regulatory requirements or the licensing basis of the plant.
The NRC staff has reviewed your request and concluded that it does provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the request in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. Given the lesser scope and depth of the acceptance review as compared to the detailed technical review, there may be instances in which issues that impact the NRC staffs ability to complete the detailed technical review are identified despite completion of an adequate acceptance review. If additional information is needed, you will be advised by separate correspondence.
If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-6606.
