Dear Sir or Madam:
In the referenced letter, Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy) submitted to the NRC a license amendment request (LAR), which proposes to: 1) revise the criticality safety analysis (CSA) for the spent fuel and new fuel storage racks; 2) impose additional requirements for the spent fuel and new fuel storage racks in Technical Specification (TS) 4.3.1, Criticality
- and 3) delete the spent fuel pool loading criteria Operating License (OL) condition. In a recent telephone call, the NRC discussed with Entergy the CSA LAR. As a result of that call, Entergy proposes the following limitation be included in the issued license amendment
"The licensee will maintain a minimum distance of 12 inches between any fuel stored in the Control Blade/Defective Fuel Storage Rack (Module H1) and in the surrounding high density spent fuel pool storage racks." In addition to the above, Entergy is submitting an administrative change to the CSA LAR. I n the referenced letter, Entergy provided in Attachment 2 a markup of the OL page that was current at the time of submittal. However, since that time, the NRC has issued TS amendment s, which have r e v i s e d that p a g e. Therefore, Entergy is providing in to this letter a markup of the current OL page s associated with the CSA LAR. Please replace Page 1 of 4 in Attachment 2 to the referenced letter with the marked

Attachment 1 to GNRO-2013/00066 Page 2 of 2 Re g iell II 4X4 S LoLa g e eon£i g uzaLio11 (46) This license condition provides for monitoring, evaluating, and taking prompt action in response to potential adverse flow effects as a result of power uprate operation on plant structures, systems, and components (including verifying the continued structural integrity of the steam dryer) for power ascension from the CLTP (3898 MWt) to the EPU level of 4408 MWt (or 113 percent of CLTP or 11S percent of OLTP) . (a) The following requirements are placed on operation of the facility before and during the power ascension to 3898 MWt: 1. GGNS shall provide a Power Ascens i on Test (PAT) Plan for the Steam Dryer testing. This plan shall include:
- Criteria for comparison and evaluation of projected strain and acceleration with on-dryer instrument data.
- Acceptance limits developed for each on-dryer strain gauge and accelerometer.
- Tables of predicted dryer stresses at CLTP, strain amplitudes and PSDs at strain gauge locations, acceleration amplitudes and PSDs at accelerometer locations, and maximum stresses and locations.
The PAT plan shall provide correlations between measured accelerations and strains and the corresponding maximum stresses.
The PAT plan shall be submitted to the NRC Project Manager no later than 10 days before start-up.
- 2. GGNS shall monitor the main steam line (MSL) strain gages and on-dryer instrumentation at a minimum of three power levels up to 3898 MWt. Based on a comparison of projected and measured strains and accelerations, GGNS will assess whether the dryer acoustic and structural models have adequately captured the response significant to peak stress projections.
16b Amendment No.
