SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT 1-ACCEPTANCE OF LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST RELATED TO TSTF-339, TSTF-5, AND OTHER TS CHANGES

Dear Ms. Hamilton:

By letter dated December 2, 2016 Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS Accession No. ML16337A249), Duke Energy Progress, LLC (Duke Energy) submitted an application with multiple license amendment requests for Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1 (HNP). The application requests to amend the Technical Specifications (TS) to relocate selected figures and values from TS to the Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) consistent with Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) 339, Relocate TS Parameters to COLR. The application also requests to make changes to TS to remove reference to plant procedure PLP-106, Technical Specification Equipment List Program and Core Operating Limits Report. Additionally, the application also requests to adopt TSTF-5, Delete Safety Limit Violation Notification Requirements, Revision 1 to HNP TS. The purpose of this e-mail is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staffs acceptance review of this application. 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 application 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 proposed amendment 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.

Based on the information provided in your submittal, the NRC staff has estimated that these licensing requests will take approximately 660 hours27.5 days <br />3.929 weeks <br />0.904 months <br /> to complete. The NRC staff expects to complete this review in approximately 12 months, which is December 2017. If there are emergent complexities or challenges in our review that would cause changes to the initial forecasted completion date or significant changes in the forecasted hours, the reasons for the changes, along with the new estimates, will be communicated during the routine interactions with the assigned project manager.

These estimates are based on the NRC staffs initial review of the application and they could change, due to several factors including requests for additional information, unanticipated addition of scope to the review, and review by NRC advisory committees or hearing-related activities. Additional delay may occur if the submittal is provided to the NRC in advance or in parallel with industry program initiatives or pilot applications.
