Subject:
Nine Mile Point 1 - Acceptance of Requested Licensing Action Re: Relief Requests CTNSP-PR-01 and CS-PR-01 (EPIDS L-2020-LLR-0136 and L-2020-LLR-0137)
Date:
Tuesday, October 20, 2020 9:06:00 AM Hello David,
By letter dated October 8, 2020 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML20282A331), Exelon Generation Company, LLC submitted two relief requests associated with the inservice testing program for Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit 1. The purpose of this e-mail is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staffs acceptance review of these relief requests. 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.
Pursuant to Sections 50.55a(z)(1) and 50.55a(z)(2) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10CFR), the applicant shall demonstrate that the proposed alternatives would provide an acceptable level of quality and safety, or that compliance with the specified requirements of Section 50.55a would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality or safety.
Based on the information provided in your submittal, the NRC staff has estimated that these relief requests will take approximately 70 hours8.101852e-4 days <br />0.0194 hours <br />1.157407e-4 weeks <br />2.6635e-5 months <br /> each to complete. The NRC staff expects to complete these reviews by the end of June 2021. 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, and unanticipated addition of scope to the review. Additional delay may occur if the submittal is provided to the NRC in advance or in parallel with industry program initiatives or pilot applications.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Best Regards, Michael L. Marshall, Jr.
