Reading, Pennsylvania 19603 TCarter Gray file Gentlemen:
RE: THREE MILE ISLAND UNIT NO. 1 On November 29, 1976, the Commission published in the Federal Register, (copy enclosed) an amended Section 20.103 of 10 CFR 20, which became effective on December 29, 1976. One effect of this revision is that in order to receive credit for limiting the inhalation of airborne radioactive material, respiratory protective equipment must be used as stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15.
Another requirement of the amended regulation is that licensees authorized to make allowance for use of respiratory protective equipment prior to December 29, 1976, must bring the use of their respiratory protective equipment into confonnance witn Regulatory Guide 8.15 by December 29, 1977.
Because the respiratory protective program described in Section 6.12 of your facility Technical Specifications differs from that stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15, the effect of this change in the regulations is to require acendment of your Technical Specifications.
In view of the provisions of Section 6.11 of your Technical Specifications, which require conformance with 10 CFR 20, and the fact that Section 20.103 no longer requires specific authorization to employ respiratory protective equipment, we conclude that the necessary amendaent to your facility's Technical Specifications can be effected by merely deleting Section 6.12.
Accordingly, this is to advise you that pursuant to 10 CFR 20.103(c) and (f), if you desire to receive credit for use of respiratory protec-tive equipment at your facility after December 28, 1977, such use must be as stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15' rather than as specified in 1491 145 7910300 Q p
r 2-
>%tropolitan Edison Company your current Technical Specifications.
In addition, you are requested to subnit by September 29, 1977, a request for amndment of your facility Technical Specifications consisting of celetion of Sunsection 6.12 of the section dealing with Administrative Controls.
Sincerely, Robert W. Reid, Chief Operating Reactors Branch ?4 Division of Operating Reactors
