Walter, Shown below is the NRC staff's information request for the subject review which was discussed during our February 8, 2012, conference call. Per that discussion, I understand that Entergy PNPS requests approval of PRR-21 in support of, and prior to, the start of its next refueling outage, currently scheduled for spring 2013. The NRC staff acknowledges that Entergy's January 23, 2012 letter (ADAMS Accession No. ML12032A135), revises the previously submitted PRR-21 request dated August 5, 2011 (ML11230A919). The staff intends to review only the portions of the revised PRR-21, as specified in the August 5, 2011, letter, and supplemented by the January 23, 2012, related to the standby liquid control safe end to nozzle weld RPV-N14-1. As stated in Entergy's August 5, 2011, letter, all other welds included in the original submittal dated March 4, 2011, were withdrawn because the weld configurations do not conform to the previously approved Pilgrim Relief Request PRR-19. As such, this e-mail is to confirm that the March 4, 2011, as supplemented by the applicable sections of the August 5, 2011 letter is being treated as withdrawn. | Walter, Shown below is the NRC staff's information request for the subject review which was discussed during our February 8, 2012, conference call.

Revised Pilgrim Relief Request (PRR-21) - RPV SLC Nozzle Weld (TAC No. ME7959)
Walter, Shown below is the NRC staff's information request for the subject review which was discussed during our February 8, 2012, conference call. Per that discussion, I understand that Entergy PNPS requests approval of PRR-21 in support of, and prior to, the start of its next refueling outage, currently scheduled for spring 2013. The NRC staff acknowledges that Entergy's January 23, 2012 letter (ADAMS Accession No. ML12032A135), revises the previously submitted PRR-21 request dated August 5, 2011 (ML11230A919). The staff intends to review only the portions of the revised PRR-21, as specified in the August 5, 2011, letter, and supplemented by the January 23, 2012, related to the standby liquid control safe end to nozzle weld RPV-N14-1. As stated in Entergy's August 5, 2011, letter, all other welds included in the original submittal dated March 4, 2011, were withdrawn because the weld configurations do not conform to the previously approved Pilgrim Relief Request PRR-19. As such, this e-mail is to confirm that the March 4, 2011, as supplemented by the applicable sections of the August 5, 2011 letter is being treated as withdrawn.
