FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant (FitzPatrick), and Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Station (Vermont Yankee) (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML15351A524).

The NRC staff need the information identified in the enclosure to this letter. We request that you provide this information within forty-five (45) working day of the date of this letter. Inform us at your earliest convenience, but no later than 2 weeks prior to the due date, if you are not able to provide the information by that date.
