Dear Sir or Madam:

By letter (Reference 1), Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy) proposed a change to the Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 (Waterford 3) Operating License and Technical Specifications to increase the unit's rated thermal power level from 3441 megawatts thermal (MWt) to 3716 MWt.

By letter (Reference 2), Entergy informed the NRC staff that the allowable value for the steam generator pressure - low setpoint proposed in Reference 1 required revision, based on the latest calculation, and committed to provide revised marked-up Technical Specification pages to reflect the change in a future supplement. Revised marked-up Technical Specification pages 2-3, 3/4 3-19, and 3/4 3-20 are attached and supersede those previously submitted.

The allowable value previously proposed was 647.9 psia and the revised allowable value is 648.4 psia. The proposed steam generator pressure - low trip setpoint of 662 psia remains unchanged as does the analytical limit of 576 psia.

The no significant hazards consideration included in Reference 3 is not affected by any information contained in this supplemental letter. There are no new commitments in this letter.
