Dear Sir:

The purpose of this letter is to update our proposed revisions (Reference 1) to Appendix A of Facility Operating License No. DPR-35, pursuant to .10 CFR 50.90.

Based on the discussions held in References 2 and 3, we have revised Reference 1 as follows: to retain a diesel fire pump inspection requirement in the Technical Specifications; to retain the current Technical Specification language on diesel fuel oil testing; and, to clarify the applicability of the bases section on alternate shutdown panels. Attachment 1 contains' a summary 1 of the changes being made and the updated technical specification pages.

Attachment 2 provides additional justification regarding our proposed change fj involving Section 4.12.G.7 of the May submittal; this change deletes an unnecessary diesel loading requirement from a functional check of an alternate shutdown panel.

These proposed revisions are bounded by the Reference 1 " safety evaluation" and " determination of no significant hazards consideration" because,. except for administrative formatting changes, the proposed revisions all serve to reinsert language in ' the May submittal from our currently approved Technical Specifications. '

1 He request an expeditious review of this submittal, as .these changes are ,l desired prior to' restart from our current outage. 'j DR 871217
