June 16, 2023 Mr. Daniel G. Stoddard Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Innsbrook Technical Center 5000 Dominion Boulevard Glen Allen, VA 23060-6711

SUBJECT:

MILLSTONE POWER STATION, UNIT NOS. 2 AND 3, NORTH ANNA POWER STATION, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2, SURRY POWER STATION, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2, AND VIRGIL C. SUMMER NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT NO. 1 CORRECTION TO AMENDMENT NO(S). 346 AND 286 (MILLSTONE), 294 AND 277 (NORTH ANNA), 311 AND 311 (SURRY), AND 225 (SUMMER) TO REVISE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TO ADOPT TSTF-554, REVISE REACTOR COOLANT LEAKAGE REQUIREMENTS (EPID L-2022-LLA-0078)

Dear Mr. Stoddard:

On May 1, 2022 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)

Accession No. ML23072A089), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued amendments to the Dominion fleet. The amendments revised the respective Technical Specifications (TSs) consistent with Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Traveler TSTF-554, Revise Reactor Coolant Leakage Requirements, to revise the TS definition of leakage, clarify the requirements when pressure boundary leakage is detected, and adds a Required Action when pressure boundary leakage is identified.

Subsequently, Dominion Energy identified some errors in issued pages. Specifically, the camera-ready pages provided for Millstone Units 2 and 3 had minor typographical errors.

Additionally, the NRC staff incorrectly reflected the licensee name on the license page for Summer. As evaluated below, the NRC staff is reissuing the affected pages.

For Millstone 2, the provided page 3/4 4-9 inadvertently changed the word valve to value in Action 3.4.6.2.a. The NRC staff confirmed that the marked-up pages provided with the amendment properly indicated the word valve. Therefore, consistent with the NRC staff guidance dated January 16, 1997 (ML103260096), based on the NRCs policy established by SECY-96-238, Guidance for Correction of Technical Specification Typographical Errors, dated November 19, 1996, this error can be corrected by a letter to the licensee from the NRC staff.

For Millstone 3, the provided page 3/4 4-22 inadvertently added the word the before the word in Action 3.4.6.2.c. The NRC staff confirmed that the marked-up pages provided with the amendment did not include the word the. Therefore, consistent with NRC staff guidance dated January 16, 1997, based on the NRCs policy established by SECY-96-238, this error can be corrected by a letter to the licensee from the NRC staff.

D. Stoddard For Summer, license page 3 inadvertently reflected the licensee as SCE&G where it should have been DESC. This error was made by the NRC staff in when it generated the amended license page. Therefore, consistent with NRC staff guidance dated January 16, 1997, based on the NRCs policy established by SECY-96-238, this error can be corrected by a letter to the licensee from the NRC staff.

Accordingly, the corrected pages are enclosed with this letter. The corrections do not change any of the conclusions associated with the issuance of the amendments, and do not affect the no significant hazards consideration published in the Federal Register on August 9, 2022 (87 FR 48516).

If you have any questions, please contact me at 301-415-2481, or via email at Ed.Miller@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
