Dear Mr. Wadley:

By letter dated April 16, 2008, as supplemented by letter dated August 6, 2008, you applied for the subject amendment.

On September 22,2008, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff issued amendment NO.6 to material license SNM-2506, for the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI). Subsequently, Mr. J. Arias of your staff identified an administrative error on page 6-1 of the technical specifications (TSs) for the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) ISFSJ. The amendment number in the page footer is incorrectly identified as "Amendment 4 dtd. September 22,2008." The correct amendment number is "Amendment 6." Enclosed please find a corrected TS page 6-1 of the PINGP ISFSJ. The correction does not change the approval conveyed by Amendment No.6, or the conclusion reached by the associated safety evaluation.

We apologize for any inconvenience this error may have caused you. Sincerely, Plant Licensing Branch 111-1 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket Nos. 50-282, 50-306, and 72-10
