ULNRC-06716 SENSITIVE INFORMATION - WITHHOLD UNDER 10 CFR 2.390(a)(4)

February 15, 2022 Page 2 of 5 A meeting (phone conference) between Union Electric (Ameren Missouri), framatome and NRC personnel is being planned in order to discuss a license amendment request (LAR) to be submitted in the March 2022 timeftame for the Callaway Plant. The amendment to be requested would support transition to the use of fuel from a new/different fuel vendor (Framatome, Inc.) for the Callaway Plant, beyond the four lead fuel assemblies that have already been loaded into the Callaway core in accordance with the provisions of Callaway Technical Specification 4.2. 1, Fuel Assemblies.

Specifically, the LAR would support the loading and unrestricted use ofFramatome GAlA fuel assemblies at Callaway, as qualified in accordance with Callaways vendor qualification program (VQP) for Framatome.

From preparation of the presentation materials to be used for the anticipated pre-application meeting, it was determined that some ofthe included information is proprietary to Framatome. On that basis, the pre-application meeting is being planned as partly a public meeting and partly a closed meeting.

The presentation materials to be used for the two-part meeting are in the form ofPowerPoint slides prepared by Ameren and Framatome personnel. The purpose ofthis letter is to transmit the slides to the NRC staffin advance ofthe meetings.

Slides for the public meeting and slides for the closed meeting were separately prepared. The set of slides to be used for the public meeting is provided as Enclosure 1 Two sets of slides were prepared for the closed meeting, and they are provided as Enclosures 2 and 3 Enclosure 2 is a redacted, non-proprietary version ofthe closed meeting slides, from which the proprietary information has been removed, as indicated on two ofthe slides provided. Enclosure 3 is the proprietary version of the closed meeting slides. This is the enclosure containing information that is to be withheld from public disclosure. For both ofthese enclosures (i.e., Enclosures 2 and 3), brackets and notation indicate the placement ofthe proprietary information and the basis for withholding the information from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.390, as further explained by an affidavit prepared by Framatome.

The affidavit is provided as Enclosure 4.

The forthcoming meeting(s) is intended to address the licensing aspects ofthe fuel transition in greater detail than what was addressed in the first and second pre-submittal meetings conducted for this LAR.

Those meetings were conducted on May 20, 2021 (References 1 and 2) and October 14, 2021 (References 3, 4 and 5), respectively.

This letter does not contain new commitments.

Enclosure 3 to this letter contains sensitive information.
