UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON.DC 20555-0001 Ms. Tanya Hamilton Site Vice President Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Duke Energy 5413 Shearon Harris Road New Hill, NC 27562-0165 December 6, 2017 SUBJECT: SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT 1 -CORRECTION TO LICENSE AMENDMENT NO. 127 REGARDING CHANGES TO THE INSERVICE INSPECTION AND TESTING REQUIREMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENT OF A TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS BASES CONTROL PROGRAM (CAC NO. MD5802) Dear Ms. Hamilton: By letter dated June 12, 2008 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML081430111 ), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRG) issued Amendment No. 127 to Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-63 for the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1 (Harris). The amendment relocated the lnservice Testing requirements to the administrative section of the Technical Specifications (TSs), removed the lnservice Inspection requirements from the TSs, and established a TSs Bases Control Program. These changes were in response to the Duke Energy Progress, LLC (previously Carolina Power and Light Company) (the licensee) license amendment request dated June 15, 2007, as supplemented by letter dated March 6, 2008 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML071800018 and ML080720337). This year, while periorming the acceptance review on a license amendment request submitted November 7, 2017, (ADAMS Accession No. ML 17312A362), the NRG staff identified an error on TS pages 6-199 and 6-19h associated with Amendment No. 127. Specifically, the TS pages 6-19g and 6-19h were issued without the applicable headings, "ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS" and "PROCEDURES AND PROGRAMS (Continued)." It appears that this error was introduced when the licensee submitted its markup and clean TS pages for Amendment No. 127, and because TS pages 6-19g and 6-19h were new pages to be added to the TS. The licensee submitted the markup pages as "inserts" without headings, while the clean pages were submitted with correct headings that were consistent with the Administrative Controls section of the Harris TS. The NRC inadvertently issued the pages without the headings. The corrected pages are enclosed.

T. Hamilton -2 -If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-6256 or by e-mail at Dennis.Galvin@nrc.gov.
