UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 August 26, 2016 Mr. Bryan C. Hanson President and Chief Nuclear Officer Exelon Nuclear Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, LLC 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555

SUBJECT:

R. E. GINNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - CORRECTION LETTER TO LICENSE AMENDMENT NO. 122 RE: LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO RELOCATE SPECIFIC SURVEILLANCE FREQUENCY REQUIREMENTS TO A LICENSEE CONTROLLED PROGRAM - ADOPTION OF TSTF-425, REVISION 3 (CAC NO. MF6358)

Dear Mr. Hanson:

On June 28, 2016 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML16125A485), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Amendment No. 122 to Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR-18 for Exelon Generation Company, LLC, the licensee for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (Ginna). This amendment revised the technical specifications (TSs) tor Ginna by relocating specific TS surveillance frequencies to a licensee-controlled program with the adoption of Technical Specification Task Force - 425, Revision 3, "Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - Risk Informed Technical Specification Task Force Initiative Sb". Additionally, the change added a new program, the Surveillance Frequency Control Program, to TS Section 5, Administrative Controls.

In reviewing the above information, the NRC staff noted that there was an administrative typographical error on TS page 3.4.(3-2 for Amendment No. 122. In particular, Surveillance Requirement 3.4.6.4 includes a note that states, "Not required to performed until 12 yours after entering MODE 4", but it should state, "Not required to be performed until 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> after entering MODE 4". The correction to TS page 3.4.6-2 is provided and should be replaced with the enclosed TS page 3.4.6.2.

These administrative typographical errors do not affect the staff's overall conclusions associated with approval of Amendment No. 122. The changes are within the scope of the application as originally noticed in the Federal Registeron October 13, 2015 (80 FR 61482). We regret any inconvenience the error may have caused.

B. Hanson If there are any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at 301-415-3629.
