PALO VERDE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, UNIT 2 - INDIVIDUAL NOTICE OF CONSIDERATION OF ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE, PROPOSED NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION, AND OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING RE: REFUELING WATER TANK (TAC NO. MD8496)
Dear Mr. Edington:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has forwarded the enclosed ANotice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment to Renewed Facility Operating License, Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination, and Opportunity for a Hearing,@ to the Office of the Federal Register for publication.
This notice relates to your application dated April 10, 2008 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. MLxxxxxxxxx1), to revise the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 2 Technical Specification (TS) 3.5.5, Refueling Water Tank (RWT), to increase the minimum required RWT level indications and the corresponding borated water volumes in TS Figure 3.5.5-1, Minimum Required RWT Volume, by 3 percent.
