1. INTRODUCTION Previous analyses (References 1 and 2) provided the analytical bases for operation under a modified power/flow line designed toenable the direct ascension to full power within the design bases previously applied.

This submittal provides results of analyses which justify operation up to 100%

of- rated power at 91% of rated coze flow. The analysis results aze provided in the same sequence as the standard reload format to assure that all aspects of reactor operation which are affected are covered. Future reload submittals will incorporate the use of the extended load line in the analysis.

NEDO-24185 2.14 Loss-of-Coolant Accident Results Potential Effects Explained A discussion of low flow effects on LOCA analyses for all operating plants (Ref-erence 3) has been presented to and was approved by the NRC (Reference 4). With the flow-dependent restrictions imposed by Reference 4, the LOCA analysis refer-enced in the plant/cycle specific reload submittal is applicable in the power flow domain discussed in this submittal.

ATTACHMENT C Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation License No. DPR-63 Docket No. 50-220 Amendment Classification

'The proposed amendment to the operating license has been evaluated and determined to fall within the definition of Class III of 10 C.F.R. 170,22 thereby requiring a fee of four thousand dollars (SO,O0O.O0).

The proposed amendment for Nine Mile Point Unit 1 involves only a single safety issue. Therefore, it meets the requirements of Class III of 10 C.F.R. 170.22.
