ULNRC-0673 9 June 30, 2022 Page 2 of 6 In the letter identified as Reference 1 Union Electric Company (Ameren Missouri) submitted an application for amendment to Renewed Facility Operating License Number NPf-30 for the Callaway Plant. The requested amendment would revise applicable Technical Specifications to implement risk-informed Completion Times and establish the Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program in accordance with the guidance ofTSTF-505, Revision 2. In support ofthe adoption of TSTF-505, TSTF-43 9, Revision 2, which involves the elimination of second Completion Times currently specified in the Technical Specifications, would also be adopted. Besides the changes needed to adopt TSTF-505 and TSTF-439, the requested amendment would also remove obsolete one-time Completion Times contained in the applicable Technical Specifications.

Following submittal of the letter identified as Reference 2 (for making corrections to the Technical Specification pages included with the LAR), the NRC completed its acceptance review of the LAR (in November 2021). In early 2022, the NRC staffindicated that an audit would be conducted for the LAR. By letter dated February 1 8, 2022 (Reference 3), the NRC staffprovjded an audit plan and requested the setup of an online reference portal for the audit. In a follow-up letter dated March 7, 2022 (Reference 4), the NRC staffprovided its compiled list of audit questions/requests to be addressed in the audit, which was subsequently conducted March 22-25, 2022. This letter hereby transmits responses to those audit questions/requests requiring written, docketed responses (as determined from the audit) and thus serves as a supplement to the LAR. The responses to the NRC audit questions/requests are provided in Attachment 9 to this letter.

While developing the responses to the NRC audit questions/requests, the need for a proposed license condition was identified in regard to the plants probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) and the next, planned PRA update. The proposed license condition is thus now part of the changes being requested per the LAR and this supplement. Details are provided in Attachments 1 and 9 to the letter. Mark-ups of the Operating License (OL) and clean pages reflecting incorporation of the change (if approved) are provided as Attachments 7 and 8 to this letter, respectively.

As a result ofproviding responses to the NRC audit questions/requests, this LAR supplement provides new/updated infonnation from what was provided in the original (Reference 1) LAR. A number of attachments and enclosures are provided, most of which are replacements to those provided in the original LAR. Specifically, as noted in the applicable responses to some of the NRC audit questions/requests (in Attachment 9), revisions to all ofthe Reference 1 LAR Attachments and Enclosures 1 and 4 were identified to be needed. On that basis, updated/replacement versions of those documents are hereby provided with this LAR supplement. Specifically, replacements for original Attachments 1 through 6 are correspondingly provided as Attachments 1 through 6 to this letter.

Replacements for Enclosures 1 and 4 are provided as Enclosures 1 and 4 (so as to maintain the numbering ofthe enclosures).

It should be noted, in particular, that responding to the NRC audit questions/requests identified the need to revise the proposed Technical Specification (TS) changes and TS Bases changes presented as Attachments 2, 3 and 4 in original LAR. Replacements for these attachments are included in the six, provided replacement attachments mentioned above (specifically as attachments 2, 3 and 4). In regard to the changes made since submittal of the original LAR, it should be noted that no revision bars are used on the replacement documents for the TS and TS Bases changes since mark-ups and revision bars are already used to reflect the proposed licensing document changes. The changes can be identified, however, by referring to the responses for the applicable NRC audit questions/requests, i.e., STSB 01, STSB Q-02 and STSB Q-04 in Attachment 9.
