UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 May 17, 2022 Mr. James Barstow Vice President, Nuclear Regulatory Affairs and Support Services Tennessee Valley Authority 1101 Market Street, LP 4A-C Chattanooga, TN 37402-2801

SUBJECT:

SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT, UNIT 2 - CORRECTION TO AMENDMENT NO.

350 REGARDING ONE-TIME CHANGE TO TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION 3.4.12, LOW TEMPERATURE OVERPRESSURE PROTECTION SYSTEM, (EPID L-2021-LLA-0194)

Dear Mr. Barstow:

By letter dated October 27, 2021 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML21298A031), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Amendment No. 350 to Renewed Facility Operating License (RFOL) No. DPR-79 for the Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Unit 2. The amendment revised Technical Specification 3.4.12, Low Temperature Overpressure Protection (LTOP) System, to add a one-time note to allow operation of one safety injection pump and one charging pump capable of injecting into the reactor coolant system during MODE 5 or MODE 6 with the pressurizer manway cover removed.

An error was identified in this license amendment in that RFOL No. DPR-79 page 3 was inadvertently not included as part of Enclosure 1 to the license amendment.

Enclosed with this letter is RFOL No. DPR-79 page 3 for License Amendment No. 350.

The error does not change any of the conclusions in the safety evaluation associated with the October 27, 2021, Amendment No. 350, nor does it affect the no significant hazard consideration, as published in the Chattanooga Times Free Press on October 26, 2021.

J. Barstow If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-1383 or via e-mail at Perry.Buckberg@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Perry H. Buckberg, Senior Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch II-2 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-328
