2. Email from Barbara Hayes, NRG, to Nancy L. Ranek, Exelon, "Additional Documents Needed for Peach Bottom SLR Environmental Review," dated December 7, 2018 In the Reference 1 letter, Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) submitted the Subsequent (i.e., Second) License Renewal Application (SLRA) for the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3 (PBAPS). In the Reference 2 email, the NRG requested that additional documents be docketed to support the Staff's review of the PBAPS SLRA Environmental Report (Appendix E to the SLRA). The table below lists the documents requested by the Reference 2 email and describes Exelon's responses.

Each document being provided for docketing is a separate enclosure to this letter, as indicated in the table.

Two of the documents being provided (Enclosures 13 and 14) were not prepared by Exelon or its contractors (i.e., they are "NonExelon" documents), and Exelon did not control development of the documents. Accordingly, while Exelon believes the information in those documents to be accurate and complete, we cannot make any specific representation as to their accuracy or completeness. The first page of each document is marked with the designation "NONEXELON,"

and the electronic file names include "NON EXELON."
