AmerGen Energy Company. LLC. pursuant to the Act and 10 CFR Parts 30.40 and 70 to receive, possess and use at any time any byproduct, source and special nuclear material as reactor fuel, sealed neutron sources for reactor startup, sealed sources for reactor instrumentation and radiation monitoring equipment calibration, and as fission detectors in amounts as required for reactor operation-(3)

AmerGen Energy Company, LLC. pursuant to the Act and 10 CFR Parts 30, 40 and 70 to receive, possess at either TMI-I or TMI-2, and use in amounts as required for TMI-I any byproduct, source or special nuclear material without restriction to chemical or physical form, for sample analysis, testing, instrument calibration, or associated with radioactive apparatus or components. Other than radioactive apparatus and components to be used at TMI Unit 2 in accordance with the TMI-2 License. the radioactive apparatus and components that may be moved from TMI Unit I to TMI Unit 2 under this provision shall be limited to: (1I outage-related items (such as contaminated scaffolding, tools, protective clothing, portable shielding and decontamination equipment); and (2) other equipment belonging to TMI Unit 1 when storage of such equipment at THi-2 is deemed necessary for load handling or contamination control considerations; (4)

AmerGen Energy Company, LLC, pursuant to the Act and 10 CFR Parts 30 and 70, to possess at the TMI Unit '1 or Unit 2 site. but not separate, such byproduct and special nuclear materials as may be produced by the operation of either unit. Radioactive waste may be moved from TMI Unit 2 to TMI Unit I under this provision for collection, processing (including decontamination), packaging, and temporary storage prior to disposal. Radioactive waste that may be moved from TMI Unit I to TMI Unit 2 under this provision shall be limited to: (1) dry active waste (DAW) temporarily moved to TMI Unit 2 during waste collection activities, and (2) contaminated liquid contained in shared system piping and tanks. Radioactive waste that may be moved from TMI Unit I to TMI Unit 2 under this provision shall not include spent fuel, spent resins, filter sludge, evaporator bottoms, contaminated oil, or contaminated liquid filters.

The storage of radioactive materials or radwaste generated at TMI Unit 2 and stored at TMI Unit I shall not result in a source term that, if released, would exceed that previously analyzed in the UFSAR in terms of offsite dose consequences.

The storage of radioactive materials or radwaste generated at TMI Unit I and stored at TMI Unit 2 shall not result in a source term that, if released, would exceed that previously analyzed in the PDMS SAR for TMI Unit 2 in terms of off-site dose consequences.

c.

This license shall be deemed to contain and is subject to the conditions specified in the following Commission regulations 10 CFR Chapter I: Part 20, Section 30.34 of Part 30, Section 40.41 of Part 40, Section 50.54 and 50.59 of Part 50, and Section 70.32 of Part 70; is subject to all applicable provisions of the Act and to the rules, regulations, and orders of the Commissioni now or hereafter in effect-and is subject to the additional conditions specified 'or incorporated below:

(1)

Maximum Power Level AmerGen Energy Company, LLC is authorized to operate the facility at steady state reactor core power levels not in excess of 2568 megawatts thermal.

(2)

Technical Specifications The Technical Specifications contained in Appendix A. as revised through Amendment No260 are hereby incorporated in the license. The AmerGen Energy Company, LLC shall operate the facility in accordance with the Technical Specifications.

Amendment No. 260

3.8 FUEL LOADING AND REFUELING Applicability:

Applies to fuel loading and refueling operations.

Objective:

To assure that fuel loading and refueling operations are performed in a responsible manner.

Specification 3.8.1 DELETED 3.8.2 Core subcritical neutron flux shall be continuously monitored by at least two neutron flux monitors, each with continuous indication available, whenever core geometry is being changed. When core geometry. is not being changed, at least one neutron flux monitor shall be in service.

3.8.3 At least one decay heat removal pump and cooler shall be operable.

3.8.4 During reactor vessel head removal and while loading and unloading fuel from the reactor, the boron concentration shall be maintained at not less than that required for refueling shutdown.

3.8.5 Direct communications between the control room and the refueling personnel in the Reactor Building shall exist whenever changes in core geometry are taking place.

3.8.6 During the handling of irradiated fuel in the Reactor Building at least one door in each of the personnel and emergency air locks shall be capable of being closed.* The equipment hatch cover shall be in place with a minimum of four bolts securing the cover to the sealing surfaces.

NOTE The equipment hatch may be open if all of the following conditions are met:

1) The Reactor Building Equipment Hatch Missile Shield Barrier is capable of being closed within 45 minutes,
2)

A designated crew is available to close the Reactor Building Equipment Hatch Missile Shield Barrier, and

3)

Reactor Building Purge Exhaust System is in service.

3.8.7 During the handling of irradiated fuel in the Reactor Building, each penetration providing direct access from the containment atmosphere to the outside atmosphere shall be either:

1.

Closed by an isolation valve, blind flange, manual valve, or equivalent, or capable of being closed,* or

2.

Be capable of being closed by an operable automatic containment purge and exhaust isolation valve.

Administrative controls shall ensure that the Reactor Building Purge Exhaust System is in service, appropriate personnel are aware that air lock doors and/or other penetrations are open, a specific individual(s) is designated and available to close the air lock doors and other penetrations as part of a required evacuation of containment. Any obstruction(s) (e.g., cable and hoses) that could prevent closure of an air lock door or other penetration will be capable of being quickly removed.
