Docket No. 50-410, Nine Mile Point 2; Updated Antitrust Information Responsive to Regulatory Guide 9.3
Dear Mr. Hooten:
The Commis'sion's Regulatory Guide 9.3 (copy attached) seeks to obtain data from prospective operating license applicants that address changes which have occurred since the initial antitrust review at the construction permit stage.
In light of the fact that the last antitrust data submittal from Niagara Mohawk was over two years ago (February 14, 1983), staff would appreciate it if Niagara Mohawk would supply updated information for,all applicant systems pursuant to changed activity since February 14, 1983.-
Current data are essential to staff's operating license antitrust analysis and determination as to whether any sig-nificant changes have occurred subsequent to the previous antitrust construction permit review for Nine Mile Point 2.
r Please provide this information within 30 days of the date of this letter.
If you have any questions regarding this request, contact Mr. William Lambe of my staff at 301-492-8048.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Enclosure:
