1) Based on the information in Section 3.3 ITS Conversion of Attachment 1 to your letter dated September 22, 2011th, the NRC staff understands that the ability to vent the containment in order to maintain containment pressure within the required limits was impacted at Callaway Plant Unit 1 since year 1999.

Provide us additional information about the venting frequency and how often the need to vent containment does actually coincide with action entries related to TS 3.3.6. Did the limitation ever lead to a plant shutdowns, and if it did, how many plant shutdowns actually occurred in this period that can be attributed to this limitation?
2) How long does the mini-purge system operate during a typical usage (facilitate personnel access, equalize containment internal and external pressures) in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4?
3) Based on the proposed insert TS-1 to TS page 3.3-60, the request for relief appears to be limited to inoperability of Functions 1 & 3 only in TS table 3.3.6-1 and that no relief is requested for Functions 2 & 4. Please Confirm?
4) Please provide the basis for Functions 1 & 3 are included in TS 3.3.6 Containment Purge valve Instrumentation and why it is now believed that these functions are essentially not needed.
