Abstract
RBG-45207 Ladies and Gentlemen: In the referenced letter, EOI requested NRC approval of a License Amendment Request and asked that NRC consider exigent circumstances associated with the request. The basis for consideration of exigent circumstances relates to the impact that a delay in performing the associated activity (i.e., the heavy load movement) would have on upcoming Refueling Outage 9, scheduled to begin March 4, 2000. Such delays could impact resumption of power from the refueling outage. Additional information on the schedule of activities that must occur prior to the refueling outage to assure reliability of the River Bend Station fuel handling equipment during the outage are provided herein. Enclosed is a copy of the projected schedule for replacement of the inclined fuel transfer system (IFTS) pool gate seal, as discussed in the referenced letter. This does not account for accelerating the schedule, which could be accomplished if NRC approval is not received by January 10, 2000. However, neither does the schedule account for any contingencies associated with potential delays in conducting the planned work. For example, the work on the IFTS bottom valve does not account for removing the 24-inch valve if the work cannot be accomplished with the valve installed. Such an activity could extend the schedule by several additional days.
