1. Entergy Letter to the NRC dated February 15, 2006, "License Amendment Request NPF-38-267 Reactor Coolant System Leakage Detection Instrumentation" (W3F1-2006-0005)

Dear Sir or Madam:

By letter (Reference 1), Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy) proposed a change to the Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 (Waterford 3) Technical Specifications (TSs) to credit the measurement tank weir flow instrumentation for the containment fan cooler condensate flow monitoring system in place of the one containment fan cooler condensate flow switch currently required by TS 3.4.5.1, "Reactor Coolant System Leakage - Leakage Detection Instrumentation."

On May 30, 2006, the NRC requested additional information. As a result, two questions were determined to need formal response. Entergy prepared a draft response and based on discussions with the NRC has determined that the existing submittal will be superseded with a new submittal. The new submittal will be provided within 60 days.
