(2) Technical Specifications and Environmental Protection Plan The Technical Specifications contained in Appendix A, as revised through Amendment No.1.45 and the Environmental Protection Plan contained inAppendix B, both of which are attached hereto, are hereby incorporated into this license. Southern Nuclear shall operate the facility in accordance with the Technical Specifications and the Environmental Protection Plan.

(3) Southern Nuclear Operating Company shall be capable of establishing containment hydrogen monitoring within 90 minutes of initiating safety injection following a loss of coolant accident.

(4) DELETED (5) DELETED (6) DELETED (7) DELETED (8) DELETED (9) DELETED (10) Additional Conditions The Additional Conditions contained in Appendix D,as revised through Amendment No. 102, are hereby incorporated into this license. Southern Nuclear shall operate the facility inaccordance with the Additional Conditions.

D. The facility requires exempfions from certain requirements of 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR Part 70.

These include (a) an exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR 70.24 for two criticality monitors around the fuel storage area, and (b)an exemption from the requirements of Paragraph Ill.D.2(b)(ii) of Appendix J of 10 CFR 50, the testing of containment air locks at times when containment integrity is not required. The special circumstances regarding exemption b are identified inSection 6.2.6 of SSER 5.

An exemption was previously granted pursuant to 10 CFR 70.24. The exemption was granted with NRC materials license No. SNM-1967, issued August 21, 1986, and relieved GPC from the requirement of having a criticality alarm system. GPC and Southern Nuclear are hereby exempted from the criticality alarm system provision of 10 CFR 70.24 so far as this section applies to the storage of fuel assemblies held under this license.

These exemptions are authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety, and are consistent with the common defense and security. The exemptions in items b and c above are granted pursuant to 10CFR 50.12. With Amendment No. 145 License No. NPF-68
