On March 12, 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
("NRC" or "Commission")
issued an order (Reference
: 1) to Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGG). Reference 1 was immediately effective and directs EGC to install reliable spent fuel pool level instrumentation. Specific requirements are outlined in Attachment 2 of Reference
: 1. Reference 1 required submission of an initial status report 60 days following issuance of the final interim staff guidance (Reference
: 2) and an overall integrated plan pursuant to Section IV , Condition C. Reference 2 endorses industry guidance document NEI 12-02, Revision 1 (Reference
: 3) with clarifications and exceptions identified in Reference
: 2. Reference 4 provided U.S. Nuclear , Regulatory Commission Integrated Plan Report to EA-12-051 August 28,2013 Page 2 the EGC initial status report regarding reliable spent fuel pool instrumentation.
Reference 5 provided the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station overall integrated plan. Reference 1 requires submission of a status report at six-month intervals following submittal of the overall integrated plan. Reference 3 provides direction regarding the content of the status reports. The purpose of this letter is to provide the first six-month status report pursuant to Section IV, Condition C.2, of Reference 1, that delineates progress made in implementing the requirements of Reference
: 1. The enclosed report provides an update of milestone accomplishments since the last status report, including any changes to the compliance method, schedule, or need for relief and the basis, if any. This letter contains no new regulatory commitments.
If you have any questions regarding this report, please contact David P. Helker at 610-765-5525.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on the 28 th day of August 2013. Respectfully submitted, Director -Licensing

Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station First Six-Month Status Report for the Implementation of Order EA-12-0S1, Order Modifying Licenses with Regard to Reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation 1 Introduction Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station developed an Overall Integrated Plan (Reference 1 in Section 8), documenting the requirements to install reliable Spent Fuel Pool Level Instrumentation (SFPLI), in response to Reference
: 2. This enclosure provides an update of milestone accomplishments since submittal of the Overall Integrated Plan including any changes to the compliance method, schedule, or need for relief/relaxation and the basis, if any. 2 Milestone Accomplishments The following milestone has been completed since the development of the Overall Integrated Plan (Reference 1), and is current as of August 19, 2013.
* Issued Exelon Fleet contract to procure Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation (SFPI) on June 18, 2013 3 Milestone Schedule Status The following provides an update to the milestone schedule to support the Overall Integrated Plan. This section provides the activity status of each item, and the expected completion date noting any change. The dates are planning dates subject to change as design and implementation details are developed.

It provides the capability to engineering phase of the project. reliably monitor the spent fuel pool water level under normal and anticipated adverse environmental conditions.
The sensor input to the system is a guided wave radar probe. Using the principle of time domain reflectometry (TDR) to detect the SFP water level, microwave signals are pulsed down the cable probe and reflected back from the water surface. This is used to determine the level of the water in the pool. Each water level measurement channel includes a flexible stainless-steel sensor cable probe suspended in the spent fuel pool from a seismic Category 1 bracket attached to the operating deck or to a raised curb at the side of the pool. The cable probe extends to just above the top of the spent fuel racks. The sensor electronics are mounted in seismic and missile protected areas outside of the building housing the SFP to minimize exposure to elevated radiation and environmental conditions which could result from a postulated loss of water inventory in the pool. There is an interconnecting cable between the sensor cable probe and sensor electronics.
The sensor electronics provide an instrument standard analog signal to a remote enclosure that will be installed in an accessible location.
This enclosure contains the Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS), backup battery, and water level display. The enclosure also includes the capability to connect an emergency or temporary external power Page 3 of 5 01# Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station First Six-Month Status Report for the Implementation of SFP LI August 28,2013 source as part of the FLEX mitigating strategies.
