Peach Bottom Unit 2

2. Scheduled date for next refueling shutdown:

Reload 14 is scheduled for September 10, 2002.

3. Scheduled date for restart following refueling:

Restart following refueling forecast for September 30, 2002.

4. Will refueling or resumption of operation therefore require a technical specification change or other license amendment?

Yes If answer is yes, what, in general, will these be?

a. Potential Cycle 15 Safety Limit MCPR Change.
5. Scheduled date(s) for submitting proposed licensing action and supporting information:
a. Submittal anticipated July, 2002.
6. Important licensing considerations associated with refueling, e.g., new or different fuel design or supplier, unreviewed design or performance analysis methods, significant changes in fuel design, new operating procedures:
a. The 2R14 reload will consist of approximately 284 GE-14 bundles. This will be the second reload of GE- 14 fuel.

Docket No. 50-277 Attachment to Monthly Operating Report for February 2002 Page 2 UNIT 2 REFUELING INFORMATION (Continued)

7. The number of fuel assemblies (a) in the core, (b) in the spent fuel storage pool and (c) dry storage.

(a) Core - 764 Fuel Assemblies (b) Fuel Pool - 3032 Fuel Assemblies, 58 Fuel Rods (c) Interim Spent Fuel Storage Installation - 272 fuel assemblies

8. The present licensed spent fuel pool storage capacity and the size of any increase in licensed storage capacity that has been requested or is planned, in number of fuel assemblies:

The spent fuel pool storage capacity has been relicensed for 3819 fuel assemblies.

9. The projected date of the last refueling that can be discharged to the spent fuel pool assuming the present capacity:

A full core discharge surplus of 23 licensed rack locations will remain available until the summer 2002 dry cask storage campaign. Based on projected dry cask storage schedules and reload batch sizes, a surplus of not less than 87 licensed rack locations will be available from that time, through end of plant life.
