In Reference 1, STP Nuclear Operating Company submitted a revised License Amendment Request (LAR) for approval by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). In order to support the STP Unit 2 Fall Outage, this letter-requests that the NRC approve proposed ACTION 5.a. to, Technical Specification 3.3.1, Functional Unit 7 for the extended range neutron flux instrumentation for the one less than minimum channels operable condition and approve the proposed change to ACTION c. to Technical Specification 3.4.1.4.2.
The change to Technical Specification TS 3.4.1.4.2 is an administrative change that does not affect any technical requirements.
