DTE Electric Company Fifth Six-Month Status Report in Response to March 12, 2012 Commission Order Modifying Licenses with Regard to Reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation (Order Number EA-12-051)

On March 12, 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued an order (Reference 2) to DTE Electric Company (DTE). Reference 2 was immediately effective and directed DTE to install reliable spent fuel pool water level indication.

Specific requirements are provided in Attachment 2 of Reference 2.

Reference 2 required submission of an initial status report 60 days following issuance of the final interim staff guidance (Reference 3) and an overall integrated plan pursuant to Section IV, Condition C. Reference 3 endorses industry guidance document NEI 12-02, Revision 1 (Reference 4) with clarifications and exceptions identified in Reference 3.

Reference 5 provided the DTE initial status report regarding spent fuel pool instrumentation. Reference 6 provided the DTE overall integrated plan.

Reference 2 requires submission of a status report at six-month intervals following submittal of the overall integrated plan. Reference 4 provides direction regarding the content of the status reports. The purpose of this letter is to provide the fifth six-month status report pursuant to Section IV, Condition C.2, of Reference 2, that delineates progress made in implementing the requirements of Reference 2. The enclosed report provides an update of milestone accomplishments since the last status report.

This letter contains no new regulatory commitments.

Should you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Mr.

Christopher Robinson, Licensing Manager at (734) 586-5076.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

4. Changes to Compliance Method There are no changes to the compliance method as documented in the Overall Integrated Plan (Reference 7.1).

5. Need for Relief/Relaxation and Basis for the Relief/Relaxation DTE expects to comply with the order implementation date and no relief/relaxation is required at this time.

6. Open Items from Overall Integrated Plan and Interim Staff Evaluation Reference 7.4 provided a response to NRC Requests for Additional Information (RAIs) regarding the Overall Integrated Plan (Reference 7.1). In Reference 7.9, the NRC provided an Interim Staff Evaluation (ISE) of the Overall Integrated Plan and the DTE responses to the RAIs.

In Reference 7.10, the NRC announced that the review of Overall Integrated Plans would be conducted through an audit process. The on-site portion of this audit was performed during the week of June 22, 2015.

The primary SFP LI review activity performed by the NRC audit team while on-site was to review the DTE responses to the RAIs that were identified in the NRC ISE (Reference 7.9). At the conclusion of the on-site audit, the NRC indicated that all ISE RAIs were considered closed based on the preliminary response provided by DTE. The final response to these RAIs will be provided in DTEs Completion Report.
