==Dear Sir or Madam:==
==Dear Sir or Madam:==
On January 11,2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Generic Letter (GL) 2008-01, "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems" (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML072910759).
 
The stated purpose of GL 2008-01 was (1) to request addressees to submit information to demonstrate that the subject systems are in compliance with the current licensing and design bases and applicable regulatory requirements, and that suitable design, operational, and testing control measures are in place for maintaining this compliance; and (2) to collect the requested information to determine if additional regulatory action is required.

GL 2008-01 requested that licensees provide the following information within 9 months of the date of the GL: A description of the results of evaluations that were performed pursuant to the [requested actions specified in the GL]. This description should provide sufficient information to demonstrate that you are or will be in compliance with the quality assurance criteria in Sections III, V, XI, XVI, and XVII of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and the licensing basis and operating license as those requirements apply to the subject systems; A description of all corrective actions, including plant, programmatic, procedure, and licensing basis modifications that you determined were necessary to assure compliance with these regulations; and, A statement regarding which corrective actions were completed, the schedule for completing the remaining corrective actions, and the basis for that schedule.

SUBJECT:

ARKANSAS NUCLEAR ONE, UNITS 1 AND 2 - CLOSEOUT OF GENERIC LETTER 2008-01, "MANAGING GAS ACCUMULATION IN EMERGENCY CORE COOLING, DECAY HEAT REMOVAL, AND CONTAINMENT SPRAY SYSTEMS" (TAC NOS. MD7793 AND MD7794)

Dear Sir or Madam:

On January 11,2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Generic Letter (GL) 2008-01, "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems" (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML072910759). The stated purpose of GL 2008-01 was (1) to request addressees to submit information to demonstrate that the subject systems are in compliance with the current licensing and design bases and applicable regulatory requirements, and that suitable design, operational, and testing control measures are in place for maintaining this compliance; and (2) to collect the requested information to determine if additional regulatory action is required.

GL 2008-01 requested that licensees provide the following information within 9 months of the date of the GL:

(a) A description of the results of evaluations that were performed pursuant to the [requested actions specified in the GL]. This description should provide sufficient information to demonstrate that you are or will be in compliance with the quality assurance criteria in Sections III, V, XI, XVI, and XVII of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and the licensing basis and operating license as those requirements apply to the subject systems; (b) A description of all corrective actions, including plant, programmatic, procedure, and licensing basis modifications that you determined were necessary to assure compliance with these regulations; and, (c) A statement regarding which corrective actions were completed, the schedule for completing the remaining corrective actions, and the basis for that schedule.

By letters dated May 8, June 30, and October 14,2008, and March 16 and November 18, 2009 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML081300376, ML081910760, ML082900147, ML090760502, and

-2 ML093230833, respectively), Entergy Operations, Inc. (the licensee), provided information in response to the GL for Arkansas Nuclear One, Units 1 and 2.

The NRC staff has reviewed the submitted information and concluded that the licensee has acceptably addressed each request, and has documented the evaluation in "Suggestions for the Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO), Units 1 and 2, Inspection Using the Guidance Provided in Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/177" (ADAMS Accession No. ML101410171, non-publicly available).

Consequently, your GL response is considered closed and no further information or action is requested of you with the exception of any commitments you have made with respect to the GL responses. Notwithstanding, the NRC's Region IV staff may decide to perform and would contact you to schedule an inspection using Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/177, "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems (NRC Generic Letter 2008-01)" (ADAMS Accession No. ML082950666).
