SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is requesting 
public comment on the proposed model safety evaluation (SE) for plant-

Traveler TSTF-510, Revision 2, ``Revision to Steam Generator Program 
Inspection Frequencies and Tube Sample Selection.'' TSTF-510, Revision 
2, is available in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management 
System (ADAMS) under Accession Number ML110610350, and includes a model 
application. The proposed change revises the Improved Standard 
Technical Specification (ISTS), NUREGs-1430, -1431, and -1432,
