- 1995, May 24,
- 1995, and June 23, 1995, to modify an existing exemption which allows the leak rate testing of the HSIV at a reduced pressure and excludes the measured leakage from the combined local leak rate test results.
The original exemption is contained in the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES),
Units 1 and 2, Safety Evaluation Report (NUREG-0776).
The exemption relates to the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J, Sections II.H.4, III.C.2, and III.C.3.

This modification is scheduled to be implemented for SSES, Unit 2 during the upcoming 7th refueling outage scheduled to begin on September 9,
- 1995, and for SSES, Unit 1, during the ninth refueling outage scheduled to begin on September 7,
