UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 April 5, 2018 Mr. Paul R. Duke, Jr.

Licensing Manager PSEG Nuclear LLC P.O. Box 236 Hancocks Bridge, NJ 08038-0236

SUBJECT:

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING ENTERGY OPERATIONS, INC.S DECOMMISSIONING FUNDING PLAN UPDATE FOR SALEM AND HOPE CREEK, AND PEACH BOTTOM INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATIONS DOCKET NOS. 72-48 AND 72-29

Dear Mr. Duke:

By letter dated December 17, 2015, PSEG Nuclear LLC (PSEG) submitted, for U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff review and approval, decommissioning funding plan updates (DFP Updates) for the independent spent fuel storage installations (ISFSIs) at Hope Creek Generating Station, Salem Generating Station, Units 1 and 2 and Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML15351A336). The NRC staff reviewed PSEGs DFP updates for each ISFSI and believes PSEGs submittal was not sufficient to meet the intent of the requirement in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 72.30(c). Specifically, the DFP updates do not provide sufficient information to allow the NRC to determine that the events listed in 10 CFR 72.30(c)(1)-(4) have been considered.

The NRC staff need the information identified in the enclosure to this letter. We request that you provide this information within forty-five (45) working day of the date of this letter. Inform us at your earliest convenience, but no later than 2 weeks prior to the due date, if you are not able to provide the information by that date. To assist us in re-scheduling your review, you should include a new proposed submittal date and the reasons for the delay. Discussion of the request for additional information (RAI) and RAI response date occurred March 28, 2018.

In future correspondence related to this request, please reference CAC No. 001028, the Docket, and EPID Numbers listed in the table.

ISFSI Docket Number EPID Number Salem and Hope Creek 72-48 L-2017- FPR-0033 Peach Bottom 72-29 L-2017-FPR-0052

P. Duke The staff is available to clarify these questions, and if necessary to meet and discuss your proposed responses. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me by e-mail at pamela.longmire@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,
