U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission CNL-19-048 Page 3 April 26, 2019 Consistent with the presentation at the March 2019 public meeting, the enclosures to this letter provide the details of TVA's modification request and justification for the modifications. To support the NRC's review, TVA has also included mark ups of the 2009 CO and 2017 COs to show which requirements have been completed by TVA, inspected by the NRC, and are not contained within the combined CO. The enclosed tables provide the NRC validation information (i.e., NRC inspection reports) where the requirement was inspected as closed . Lastly, TVA is including a proposed CO that combines the remaining or continuing CO requirements. TVA intends to request a post-submittal meeting to discuss the details of the request after the NRC has had sufficient time to review the request. TVA requests NRC approval of this CO modification request by January 30, 2020.

TVA is committed to complying with the requirements in the COs and is not seeking relaxation of any individual commitments. There are no new regulatory commitments associated with this submittal. For questions related to this request, please contact me at (423) 751-7620.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on this 26th day of April 2019.
