EVALUATION Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation has updated Figure 6.2-2 to make the organization chart more consistent with the corresponding figure for Nine Mile Point Unit 2.
This revision includes the following changes:
1.
The addition of an operations group under a Station Superintendent Unit 2 that is directly responsible for the operation of Unit 2.
2.
The separation of the chemistry and radiochemistry function from the radiation protection function within the Chemistry and Radiation Management Department.
The new position of Radiation Protection Manager has been established to manage the day-to-day radiation protection program.
We find that the above changes are acceptable because they make the organization chart more consistent with that of Unit No.
2 and the organization meets the acceptance criteria of Section
- 13. 1.2-13. 1.3 of NUREG-0800, the Standard Review Plan.
The licensee has also updated Section 6.3. 1 to include the qualifications requirements for the new position of Radiation Protection Manager.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION This amendment involves changes to the administrative controls for plant operation.
The staff has determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that this amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public convent on such finding.
Accordingly, this amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51,22(c)(9).
Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b) no environmental impact statement nor environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.
CONCLUSION The staff has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that:
(1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed
- manner, and (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Cooeission's regulations and the issuance of this amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security nor to the health and safety of the public.
