==SUBJECT:==
Partial Withdrawal of Fort Calhoun Station, Unit No.1, License Amendment Request (LAR) "Revision to Technical Specification (TS) 2.15, Table 2-5, Item 1 and TS 3.1, Table 3-3, Items 1,2 and 4 Control Element Assembly (CEA) Position Indication and Correction of TS 2.10.2(7)c" The Omaha Pub'lic Power Distdct (OPPD) hereby requests a partial withdrawal of its License Amendment Request (LAR) of Reference 2. OPPD has elected not to change TS 3.1, Table 3-3, Item 2.a following discussions with the NRC that occurred since OPPD responded (Reference 4) to an NRC request for additional information Employment with Equal Opportunity

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission LlC-11-0087 Page 2 (Reference 3). The NRC request pertained to the independence of the CEA position indication system channels.
The result of leaving TS 3.1, Table 3-3, !:tem 2.a unchanged is that the CHANNEL CHECK of the primary CEA position indication system channel can be accomplished through comparison of its data with either distributed control system (DCS) core mimic (if available) or the secondary CEA position indication system channel. However, surveillance of the secondary CEA position indication system channel can only be met by comparison with the primary CEA position indication system channel.
No commitments to the NRC are made in this letter.
If you should have any questions regarding this submittal or require additional information, please contact Mr. Bill R. Hansher at (402) 533-6894.
I dec'lare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on August 19, 2011.
