TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TASK FORCE TSTF A JOINT OWNERS GROUP ACTIVITY April 20, 2007 TSTF-07-12 PROJ0753 U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attn: Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555-0001

SUBJECT:

Submittal of TSTF-425, Revision 1, "Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - RITSTF Initiative 5"

Dear Sir or Madam:

On the enclosed CD-ROM for NRC review is Revision 1 of TSTF-425, "Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - RITSTF Initiative 5." Revision 1 of TSTF-425 expands the applicability of the change to all reactor types and references Revision 1 of NEI 04-10, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 5b, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies, Industry Guidance Document." Revision 1 of NEI 04-10 was submitted by the Nuclear Energy Institute on April 19, 2007.

The TSTF requests that the Traveler be made available under the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process (CLIIP).

We request that the NRC review TSTF-425, Revision 1, on the same schedule advertised for Revision 0. Specifically, we request that the NRC's review schedule support issuance of the CLIIP Notice of Availability by January 31, 2008.

In the CLIIP model application for TSTF-425, we request that NRC reflect that appropriate plant-specific changes will be made to the Technical Specifications Bases by the licensees under the Technical Specification Bases Control Program and that, therefore, revised Bases pages need not be included. This will significantly reduce the size of the plant-specific license amendment requests submitted to adopt TSTF-425.

TSTF 07-12 April 20, 2007 Page 2 The NRC's review of TSTF-425, Revision 0, was granted a fee waiver in the NRC letter to A. R.

Pietrangelo dated January 10, 2003. We request that the NRC review of the revision to TSTF-425 continue to be granted a fee waiver pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 170.11.

Specifically, the request is to support NRC generic regulatory improvements (risk management technical specifications), in accordance with 10 CFR 170.11(a)(1)(iii).
