Subject:
Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (PVNGS)
Units 1, 2, and 3 Docket Nos. STN 50-528/529/530 Supplement Regarding Fourth 10-Year Interval Pump and Valve Inservice Testing Program Relief Requests PRR-01, PRR-02, PRR-03, PRR-04, PRR-05, and PRR-06 Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a, Arizona Public Service Company (APS) has revised the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (PVNGS) pump and valve inservice testing (IST) program for the fourth 10-year interval for Units 1, 2, and 3, which begins on January 15, 2018.

Specifically, APS formally withdraws relief requests GRR-01, and GRR-02 of the reference letter which relate to the use of the 2012 Edition of the ASME OM Code and Code Case OMN-20, Inservice Test Frequency, which is an alternative to the frequency specifications of the ASME OM Code.

NRC finalization of the 10 CFR 50.55a rulemaking will render relief requests GRR-01 and GRR-02 moot.
APS requests approval of the relief requests prior to the start of the fourth 10-year inservice testing interval which will begin on January 15, 2018.
