MONTICELLO NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT - ACCEPTANCE OF REQUESTED LICENSING ACTION RE: RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE CONDITION 2.C.15(h) (EPID L-2019-LLL-0035)

Mr. Kivi, By letter dated November 20, 2019, Norther States Power Company submitted a long-term inspection plan for Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant (MNGP) for Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) review and approval consistent with Renewed Facility Operating License, License Condition 2.C.15(h). The purpose of this letter is to provide the results of the U.S. NRC staffs acceptance review of this request. 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/relief/other RLA] 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 the NRC staff has estimated that this licensing request will take approximately 80 hours3.333 days <br />0.476 weeks <br />0.11 months <br /> to complete. The NRC staff expects to complete this review in approximately 12 months, which is December 2020. 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.
