Dear Sir or Madam:
In Reference 1, Energy Northwest submitted a License Amendment Request (LAR) to adopt TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option A. In References 2 and 4, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requested additional information in order to complete the review.

As discussed at the November 13, 2014, meeting between NRC and the Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) (ADAMS Accession No. ML14307A869), the TSTF is planning to clarify the intent of the terminology "change to a setpoint value."

Energy Northwest plans to monitor the status of these activities in order to determine the best option to pursue in the future.
