(EPID L-2021-LLA-0059 AND EPID L-2021-LLE-0021)
On March 31, 2021, and per Reference 1 included in the list of references on page 3 of this letter, Ameren Missouri submitted a license amendment request (LAR) to the NRC, in combination with a request for regulatory exemptions, in order to adopt a risk-informed approach for resolving GSI-191 and responding to Generic Letter (GL) 2004-02, for the Callaway plant.
Subsequent to submittal of the Reference 1 LAR, a number ofletters/supplemep.ts were submitted in support of the LAR and/or in response to NRC correspondence regarding the LAR, as identified in the list ofreferences on page 3. Specifically, initial supplements to the LAR were submitted by Ameren Missouri per References 2, 3, and 4. In addition, an audit was planned and executed by the NRC in August 2021 for the LAR, which required correspondence to be exchanged between the NRC and Ameren Missouri. That correspondence included an NRC letter for providing the audit plan in advance of the audit (identified as Reference 5) as well as an NRC letter that provided an audit summary following the audit (per Reference 6). Responses to the various audit items (i.e.,
questions/requests addressed during or from the audit) were documented and provided via the Ameren Missouri letters identified as References 7 and 8.
This letter is submitted in order to respond to a request for additional information (RAI) electronically received (via e-mail) from the NRC on April 5, 2022, which is identified as Reference 9 (on page 3 of this letter). The responses to the individual requests/questions contained in the RAI are hereby provided in the enclosure to this letter.

ULNRC-06735 May 26, 2022 Page 2 of 5 It is acknowledged that this letter for submitting the enclosed RAI responses is being submitted after the target date that was discussed with the NRC staff and identified in Reference 9. The delay was due to inadequate coordination between onsite personnel and the contractor providing essential input to the responses, during the current refueling outage. The untimely submittal has been documented in a condition report and is being addressed accordingly.
In regard to the Reference 1 LAR, it should be noted that the additional information provided in the attachment to this letter has no impact on the "No Significant Hazards Consideration" conclusions reached in the LAR, nor does it change the conclusion regarding no need for an environmental assessment based on the categorical exclusion provisions of 10 CFR 51.22.
In accordance with 10 CFR 50.91, "Notice for public comment; State consultation," Section (b)(l), a copy of this supplement to the Reference 1 LAR and regulatory exemption request is being provided to the designated Missouri State official. This supplement was reviewed by the Callaway Plant Onsite Review Committee.
For any questions regarding this submittal, please contact Tom Elwood (Supervisor, Regulatory Affairs - Licensing) at (314) 225-1905.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
Sincerely,
                                                                                                                                                                              ~tJ,;7i?Q Todd A. Witt Manager, Regulatory Affairs Executed on:                        )1c,..y ZGI                   :zoz;z,
