ATTACHMENT B Regulatory Docket File Supplemental Information

, gv,r jvtktr,~t;~$

'ack~round On August 15, .1975, liiagara Mohawk Power Corporation submitted an application for amendment to Operating License, entitled, "General Electric Boiling Water Reactor Reload-5 Licensing Submittal for Nine

'Mi le Point Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1." That document proposed changes to revise fuel operating limits for the next cycle, based on an analysis of limiting transients for Reload-5.

Subsequent to that submittal, General Electric Company informed Niagara Mohawk of a mistake in .the Control Rod Withdrawal Error Transient analysis calculation. Attachment A includes the revised calculation and supplements the similar document transmitted August 15, 1975. The new MCPR limits proposed are higher than in the previous submittal, and therefore more conservative.
