Dear Mr. Singer:

By letter dated October 19, 2005, the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) submitted Relief Request No. 3-PDI-2 for Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN) Unit 3 from the inservice inspection requirements of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (ASME Code),Section XI, for the volumetric examination of reactor pressure vessel nozzle-to-vessel welds. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff requested additional information pertaining to the difference between TVAs request and ASME Code Case N-613-1 endorsed in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.147, Revision 14. TVA subsequently requested that the relief request be withdrawn in a letter dated May 25, 2006 as TVA will adopt the use of ASME Code Case N-613-1 as endorsed in RG 1.147.

By the same letter dated October 19, 2005, TVA submitted Relief Request No. 3-ISI-16 for BFN Unit 3 from the inservice inspection requirements of the ASME Code,Section XI, for pressure retaining piping welds subject to examination using qualified procedures, personnel and equipment.
