==Dear Sir or Madam:==
On May 25, 2010 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML 101340109), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff issued Amendment No. 226 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-38 for Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 (Waterford 3), in response to Entergy Operation, Inc.'s (the licensee's) application dated May 22,2009, as supplemented by letter dated May 17,2010 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML091470271 and ML 101400028, respectively). The application proposed a change to Technical Specification (TS) 6.9.1.11, to minimize the number of references consistent with the guidance provided in NRC Generic Letter 88-16, "Removal of Cycle-Specific Parameter Limits from Technical Specifications". By letter dated July 26, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML 102100200), Entergy identified the Limiting Condition of Operation for Moderator Temperature Coefficient in the TSs, 3.1.1.3, was incorrectly identified as 3.1.1.4 in its letters dated May 22, 2009, and May 17, 2010, and the administrative error was editorial in nature and only affected a portion of the TS pages and did not exist in any of the letter material content of the safety evaluation. Additionally, the licensee stated that the administrative error does not change any of the information that was submitted to the NRC and that the cover letter and safety evaluation for Amendment No. 226 did not contain this error. Entergy also stated that error was a "copy and paste" problem from the Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) specification to the Waterford 3 specification.

SUBJECT:

WATERFORD STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNIT 3 -CORRECTION OF AN ERROR IN AMENDMENT NO. 226 REGARDING LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO REVISE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION 6.6.5, CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT (TAC NO. ME1359)

Dear Sir or Madam:

On May 25, 2010 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML 101340109), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff issued Amendment No. 226 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-38 for Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 (Waterford 3), in response to Entergy Operation, Inc.'s (the licensee's) application dated May 22,2009, as supplemented by letter dated May 17,2010 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML091470271 and ML 101400028, respectively).

The application proposed a change to Technical Specification (TS) 6.9.1.11, to minimize the number of references consistent with the guidance provided in NRC Generic Letter 88-16, "Removal of Cycle-Specific Parameter Limits from Technical Specifications".

By letter dated July 26, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML 102100200), Entergy identified the Limiting Condition of Operation for Moderator Temperature Coefficient in the TSs, 3.1.1.3, was incorrectly identified as 3.1.1.4 in its letters dated May 22, 2009, and May 17, 2010, and the administrative error was editorial in nature and only affected a portion of the TS pages and did not exist in any of the letter material content of the safety evaluation. Additionally, the licensee stated that the administrative error does not change any of the information that was submitted to the NRC and that the cover letter and safety evaluation for Amendment No. 226 did not contain this error. Entergy also stated that error was a "copy and paste" problem from the Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) specification to the Waterford 3 specification.

-2 Thus, according to the NRC's policy established by SECY-96-238, "Proposed Guidance For Correction of Technical Specification Typographical Errors," dated December 17,2006 (ADAMS Accession No. ML003754054), this error can be corrected by a letter. Enclosed please find the replacement TS pages 6-20 and 6-20a. This correction does not change any of the conclusions in the safety evaluation associated with the amendment.
