Status of draft RAI for TSTF-426 LAR (CAC No. MF7213)

Attachments: DRAFT Request for Additional Information - License Amendment Request to Adopt TSTF-426 - CAC No. MF7213 Good afternoon, By letter dated December 22, 2015 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)

Accession No. ML15356A657), Entergy Operations, Inc. (the licensee), submitted a license amendment request (LAR) to adopt Technical Specification (TS) change traveler (TSTF)-426, Revise or Add Actions to Preclude Entry into LCO 3.0.3 - RITSTF Initiatives 6b & 6, Revision 5, at Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 2 (ANO-2). The proposed change would provide a short Allowable Outage Time to restore an inoperable system for conditions under which the current ANO-2 TSs would require a plant shutdown.

In the course of its review, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff had developed a draft request for additional information (RAI), and in accordance with Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Office Instruction LIC-101, had transmitted that draft RAI to you via email on March 31, 2016. The licensee requested a clarification call, and that call was held on April 4, 2016 with Mr. David Bice of your staff. After further review of the information submitted on the docket, the NRC staff has concluded that the information provided in the LAR is sufficient in that the draft RAI is no longer needed.

The draft RAI is attached to this email for your reference.

If you have any questions, please contact Steve Koenick at 301-415-6631 or at Stephen.koenick@nrc.gov.

Thanks, Andrea George Project Manager U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Division of Operating Reactor Licensing andrea.george@nrc.gov 301-415-1081 1
