DOCKET NUMBER 50-483 CALLAWAY PLANT UNIT 1 UNION ELECTRIC Co.

RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NPF-30 RESPONSE TO REQUESTS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING PROPOSED REVISION OF CALLA WAYS FSAR-DESCRIBED COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATORY GUIDE 1.106 REGARDING MOV THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION (LDCN 16-0001)

By letter dated April 6.2017 (ADAMS Accession No. ML17097A425). Union Electric Company fdba Ameren Missouri) submitted a license amendment reqtiest (LAR) for the Callaway Plant. The proposed amendment would revise the FSAR description of Callaways compliance with NRC Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.106, Revision 1, Thermal Overload Protection for Electric Motors on Motor-Operated Valves. Specifically. FSAR Standard Plant Appendix 3A, Conformance to NRC Regulatory Guides, and FSAR Standard Plant Section 8.3.1.1.2.e.

480-V Motor Control Center Overcurrent Relaying, would be revised to incorporate a clear description of how Callaway complies with RG 1 .106 in regard to the control and/or bypassing of thermal overload protection (TOP) devices for motor-operated valves (MOVs) during routine/maintenance testing of such valves. The proposed change would allow MOV TOP devices to remain bypassed during routine valve stroke surveillances (such that the TOP bypass jumpers are not removed during such testing). which is not in strict compliance with RG 1.106.

During the review of the submitted LAR. the NRC staff determined that requests for additional information (RAIs) were needed to complete the review. The NRC transmitted RAIs to Ameren Missouri in electronic form on October 31. 2017, and requested that the responses be provided by January 24, 2018, which was extended to February 9, 2018 at the request of Ameren Missouri. Accordingly, the RAI responses are provided in enclosures to this letter.
