See Attachment

Dear Mr. Russell:

Reference 5 transmitted the Commonwealth Edison Company (Comed) request to amend Sa 'on 3.4.9.1 and 3.4.9.3 of the Technical Specification for Braidwood Units 1 vA 3. Reference 3 transmitted additional information which was requested during the referenced 4 teleconference. As discussed during the reference 2 teleconference, it was brought to Com Ed's attention that Technical Specification submittal needed to be revised to account for a 60 pounds per square inch gauge (psig) pressure channel measurement uncertainty. This submittal was subsequently supplemented in the reference 1 letter. Reference 3 also transmitted information on the Braidwood 1 Capsule U LTOPS. This information was subsequentif revised to include the 60 psig pressure channel measurement uncertainty and is attached for your review.
