VIRGIL C. SUMMER NUCLEAR STATION (VCSNS) UNIT 1 DOCKET NO. 50-395 OPERATING LICENSE NO. NPF-12 LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST- LAR 11-01774 Application to Eliminate License Condition 2.G.1 Requiring Reporting of Violations of Section 2.C of the Operating License Using the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process (CLIIP)

==Dear Sir or Madam:==

In accordance with the provisions of Section 50.90 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (SCE&G), acting for itself and as agent for South Carolina Public Service Authority, is submitting a request for an amendment to the operating license for Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station (VCSNS) Unit 1.
The proposed amendment would delete the license condition that requires reporting of violations of other requirements (e.g., conditions listed in Section 2.C) in the operating license.
The change is consistent with the notice published in the FederalRegister on November 4, 2005 (70 FR 67202) as part of the consolidated line item improvement process (CLIIP).
Attachment I contains SCE&G's evaluation of the proposed change, including a description of the proposed change and confirmation of applicability. Attachment II provides a mark-up of the operating license and technical specification (TS) pages showing the proposed changes.
Attachment III provides the retyped operating license and TS pages. Attachment IV provides a summary of the regulatory commitments made in this submittal.
SCE&G requests approval of the proposed license amendment by June 3, 2012 with the amendment being implemented within 120 days.
This proposed change has been reviewed and approved by both the VCSNS Plant Safety Review Committee (PSRC) and the VCSNS Nuclear Safety Review Committee (NSRC).
In accordance with 10 CFR 50.91 (b)(1), "State Consultation," a copy of this application, with attachments, is being provided to the designated South Carolina Official.
The NRC has allowed the elimination of license conditions requiring reporting of violations of other requirements in the operating license for Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Unit 1 and Unit 2 (ML082260124), and Seabrook Station (ML060870115).
