AUG 2 7 1985 Docket Nos. 50-269, 50-270 and 50-287 Duke Power Company ATTN: Mr. Hal B. Tucker, Vice President Nuclear Production Post Office Box 33189 422 South Church Street Charlotte, North Carolina 28242 Gentlemen:

Subject:

10 CFR 170 Fees for Fire Protection Reviews and Approvals for Oconee Station - Unit Nos. 1, 2 and 3 The purpose of this letter is to address the fee requirements of 10 CFR 170 as they relate to actions pertaining to the fire protection require ments of 10 CFR 50. On February 17, 1981, 10 CFR 50.48 and Appendix R, which added fire protection requirements for operating nuclear power plants, became effective. Prior to that date, fees were exempted for the review and approval of fire protection actions based on Branch Technical Position BTP APCSB 9.5-1 and its Appendix A. Since the February 1981 amendment of 10 CFR 50, there have been a number of requests filed by licensees for their plants. These requests consist of exemptions from schedular and other requirements, and other reviews (e.g., alternate safe shutdown capability).

It is NRC policy to exempt from fees fire protection exemption requests which were on file with the NRC as of June 19, 1984, and are approved pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12 by the staff of the Division of Licensing (DL) unless a license amendment or other approval is also required or the request is denied. On this basis, fees have not been requested for any of these types of exemptions. Fees will be charged for all other approvals and denials relating to fire protection. This means that the review and approval of the alternate safe shutdown capability and any reviews which result in a license amendment or denial of a request which was filed between February 1981 and June 19, 1984, for your facility are subject to fees pursuant to 10 CFR 170.22 of the March 23, 1978 regulations. A DL letter dated November 24, 1980, informed all reactor licensees with plants licensed prior to January 1, 1979, that fees would be required for requests for Commission action resulting from the fire protection rule.

Duke Power Company 2

AUG 2 7 18 The enclosed list reflects each request, any fees paid, and the DL staff's fee determination and action on each. On the one hand, $4,800 is due the NRC, and, on the other hand, a refund of $4,800 is due your Company. Rather than refund the $4,800 to your Company, we are applying it to the $4,800.due the NRC. We hope this transaction meets with your approval. For those portions of all applications on the enclosed list which were approved pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, we have concluded that an exemption, pursuant to 10 CFR 170.11(b), from the fee requirements is authorized by law and such exemption is otherwise in the public interest and is hereby granted for them.

If for some reason our list does not include all pending fire protection requests that your Company had on file with the DL staff as of June 19, 1984, we will address the excluded ones in a later letter if fees are required. If they are approved totally pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, they will be exempted from fees, but an additional letter will not be sent to you unless required otherwise (e.g., fees paid and refund has to be made).

Fees for fire protection applications (including exemption requests) filed on or after June 20, 1984, will be assessed fees in accordance with 10 CFR 170.12(c) and 170.21 of the revision to 10 CFR 170 which became effective on June 20, 1984.

Sincerely, priginai Signed b 2N. 9. WM William 0. Miller, Chief License Fee Management Branch Office of Administration
