SUBJECT:

PILGRIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION - REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PILGRIM - LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION ONLY EMERGENCY PLAN (EPID: L-2021-LLA-0021)

Dear Ms. Sterdis:

By letter dated February 18, 2021 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System

[ADAMS] Accession No. ML21049A192), as supplemented as supplemented by the letters dated May 20, 2021 and July 29, 2021 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML21140A045 and ML21140A045, respectively), Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC (HDI) submitted a license amendment request for the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (PNPS) pursuant to the provisions of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 50.90, Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit. In its request, HDI states that in support of this condition, revisions to the PNPS Emergency Plan and associated Emergency Action Level (EAL) Scheme are proposed to comport with the requirements for a facility configuration with all spent nuclear fuel in dry storage within an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). The HDI staff explains that the reason for this proposed amendment request is to obtain the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval of the PNPS ISFSI Only Emergency Plan and associated EAL Scheme and that the proposed changes are being submitted to the NRC for approval prior to implementation, as required under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(4).

The NRC staff is currently reviewing the submittal. The NRC staff has determined that additional information is needed to complete the review. Therefore, the NRC staff requests additional information (RAI) as specified in the Enclosure. To continue the review of the subject license amendment request, please respond to this RAI no later than September 10, 2021.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of ADAMS. ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
