SUBJECT:

REVISION TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THE PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2, AMENDMENT OF COOLING WATER SYSTEM EMERGENCY INTAKE DESIGN BASIS (TAC NOS. M97816 AND M97817) i i j

Dear Mr. Anderson:

I l By letter dated February 21, 1997, the staff sent Northern States Power

Company (NSP) a request for additional information (RAI) in order to review

the proposed amendment to the licensing basis-for the Prairie Island cooling 1 water system emergency intake. Item number 4 of the RAI asked NSP to do a i reanalysis of slope stability and to also submit any computer programs used for the reanalysis. .However, NRC policy on procurement requires the staff to l purchase any commercially-available computer programs. Since the computer

programs we requested are commercially available, we rescind our request for

NSP to provide us with these programs. If the staff requires additional

i information, such as computer program input parameters, then we will request j

. these items at a later date.  ;

i- i

If you have any questions regarding the content of the RAI, please contact me  !

i at (301) 415-1355. ,

i Sincerely, i
