UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 February 18, 2016 Mr. Paul Fessler Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer DTE Electric Company Fermi 2 - 210 NOC 6400 North Dixie Highway Newport, Ml 48166

SUBJECT:

FERMI 2 - CORRECTIONS TO AMENDMENT NO. 201 REGARDING RELOCATION OF SPECIFIC SURVILLANCE FREQUENCIES TO A LICENSEE-CONTROLLED PROGRAM BASED ON TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION TASK FORCE CHANGE TSTF-425 (CAC NO. MF7296)

Dear Mr. Fessler:

On July 14, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued License Amendment No. 201 to Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-43 for the Fermi 2 facility (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML15155B416). This amendment consisted of changes to the technical specifications (TSs) and Renewed Facility Operating License in response to your application dated September 16, 2014 (ADAMS Accession No. ML14259A564), as supplemented by letter dated April 17, 2015 (ADAMS Accession No. ML15107A407). The amendment modified the TSs by relocating specific surveillance frequencies to a licensee-controlled program based on TS Task Force (TSTF)

Change TSTF-425.

On January 29, 2016, the NRC staff identified an error in the TSs for Fermi 2. Upon further review, it was determined some of the clean pages prepared to support issuance of the amendment contained format and typographical errors; therefore, additional TS pages needed to be corrected. The NRC has reviewed the corrected TS pages attached and determined that they are consistent with the proposed TS markups included in the application dated September 16, 2014, and the errors were inadvertently introduced in License Amendment No. 201, dated July 14, 2015. The specific corrections are described below.

1. TS page 3.2-4-the heading "3.2.3 LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE (LHGR)" was corrected from "3.2.1."

2. TS page 3.3 the words "FUNCTIONAL TEST" in SR 3.3.1.1.5 were capitalized.

3. TS pages 3.5-7 and 3.6-21-SRs3.5.1.13 and 3.6.1.6.1 should state, " ... valve is capable of being opened" instead of, " ... valve opens when manually actuated." The change to the SRs were approved by License Amendment No. 190 issued in letter dated December 21, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12321A234).

4. TS page 3.6 SR 3.6.2.3 should state. "Verify each required RHR pump develops a flow rate~ 9,250 gpm through the associated heat exchanger while operating in the suppression pool cooling mode." The change from 10,000 gpm to 9,250 gpm was

P. Fessler approved by License Amendment No. 191 issued in letter dated December 21, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12333A327).

5. TS page 3.6 SR 3.6.4.3.1 should state, " ... 15 continuous minutes" instead of" 10 continuous hours." The change to this SR was approved by License Amendment No. 192 issued in letter dated May 13, 2013 (ADAMS Accession No. ML13112A142).

6. TS page 3.10 SR 3.10.5.5 should state, "Verify no other CORE ALTERATIONS are in progress." The addition of the word "other" was approved by License Amendment No. 134 issued in letter dated September 30, 1999 (ADAMS Legacy Accession No. 99102201218).

7. TS pages 3.1-17, 3.1-19, 3.6-32, 3. 7 spaces were added to properly align the text in the REQUIRED ACTION or CONDITION columns.

The NRC staff concludes that the errors were introduced during preparation of the license amendment and are entirely editorial in nature. The proposed correction does not change any of the conclusions in the safety evaluation associated with the amendment and does not affect the associated notice to the public. Enclosed are the corrected TS pages for License Amendment No. 201 for the Fermi 2 facility. Please replace the affected pages in the Fermi 2 TSs with the enclosed pages.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please call me at (301) 415-1530.
