ME5744 - State Consultation - Duane Arnold Energy Center License Amendment Melanie Rasmusson, Chief Bureau of Radiological Health Iowa Dept of Public Health Lucas State Office Building 321 East 12th Street Des Moines, IA 50319-0075 515-281-3478 mrasmuss@idph.state.ia.us This email documents a phone call to you on February 6, 2012. I left a brief voicemail description of the amendment. The details follow.

Pursuant to 10CFR50.91(b), State Consultation, I am notifying you that the NRC is currently processing an amendment (internally identified at this time as TAC Number ME5744) for the Duane Arnold Energy Center (DAEC). The NRC staff has determined that the amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration. The analysis on the issue of no significant hazards consideration is published in the Federal Register on page 76 FR 28474 (dated May 17, 2011)

The current amendment is in response to an application dated February 23, 2011 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML110550570)

The proposed amendment would adopt an approved change to the standard technical specifications (STS) for General Electric Plants, BWR/4 (NUREG-1433), to allow relocation of specific TS surveillance frequencies to a licensee controlled program. The proposed change is described in Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF)

Traveler, TSTF-425, Revision 3 (Rev. 3) (ADAMS Accession No. ML090850642) related to the Relocation of Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee ControlRITSTF (Risk-Informed TSTF) Initiative 5b and was described in the Notice of Availability published in the Federal Register on July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996).

The proposed changes are consistent with NRC-approved Industry/Technical Specification Task Force Traveler, TSTF-425, Rev. 3, Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee ControlRITSTF Initiative 5b.

The proposed change relocates surveillance frequencies to a licensee-controlled program, the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (SFCP). This change is applicable to licensees using probabilistic risk guidelines contained in NRC approved NEI 04-10, Risk- Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 5b, Risk- Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies, (ADAMS Accession No. 071360456).

You may contact me if you have any comments on this amendment.
