ENCLOSURE 1                                                            LR-N14-0186
: 1. Introduction PSEG developed an Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) (Reference 1) for Salem Generating Station (SGS) Units 1 and 2, documenting the plan to meet the requirements to install reliable spent fuel pool instrumentation (SFPI) in response to NRC Order EA-12-051 (Reference 2). In References 3 and 4, respectively, PSEG provided the first and second six-month status reports associated with implementation of the requirements of NRC Order EA-12-051. This report is the third six month status report, which provides implementation status as of July 31, 2014. This status report follows the guidance in Appendix A to Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Report 12-02, Revision 1 (Reference 5),
which states that the six-month status reports should include any changes to the compliance method, schedule, and the need for relief and the basis for relief, if applicable. Sections 2 and 3 of this status report include milestone accomplishments and milestone schedule status, respectively. There are no changes to compliance method or requests for relief associated with this report.
: 2. Milestone Accomplishments As of July 31, 2014, the following milestones have been completed since the development of the SGS SFPI OIP.
* Submit Integrated Plan: PSEG submitted the SGS SFPI OIP to the NRC.
* Issue SFPI Equipment Purchase Order: PSEG issued a material purchase order to the SFPI vendor.
* Begin Installation -SFPI installation activities have begun at Salem Units 1 and 2.
: 3. Milestone Schedule Status The following table provides an update of the milestone schedule provided in Section 3 of the SGS SFPI OIP, as well as additional milestones (e.g., six-month status reports, procedures, training and a completion report) that have been included for completeness. The table provides the activity status of each item, and the expected completion date noting any changes. The dates are planning dates subject to change as design and implementation details are finalized. Activities apply to both SGS Units 1 and 2, unless indicated otherwise.
