NUCLEA.R REGULATORY COMMISSION 4
j,I, $S i j WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555
'%...,..,.ol March 14, 1979 Docket Nos. 50-295 and 50-304 Mr. Cordell Reed Assistant Vice President Commonwealth Edison Company Post Office Box 767 Chicago, Illinois 60690
Dear Mr. Reed:
The Commission has issued the enclosed Amendment Nos.45. and 42 to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-39 and DPR-48 for the Zion Station, Units 1 and 2, respectively in response to your submittals of November 18, 1977 as revised May 26 and July 25, 1978.
The amendments incorporate the " Zion Station, Unit Nos.1 and 2 Physical Securit'y Plan" into License Nos. OPR-39 and DPR-48 effective February 23, 1979.
We have completed our review and evaluation of your physical security plan and have concluded that the physical security plan for your facility, when fully implemented, will provide the protection needed to meet the general performance requirements of 10 CFR 73.55(a) and the objectives of the specific requirements of 10 CFR 73.55, paragraphs (b) through (h), without impairing your ability to safely operate your facility.
We therefore further conclude that the plan is acceptable.
The enclosed Security Plan Evaluation Report (SPER) represents our evaluation and acceptance of your physical security plan. The SPER is being withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790(d).
When all aspects of your approved plan have been implemented, we request that you notify both the Office of Inspection and Enforcement and the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, at which time a compliance inspection will be scheduled by the Office of Inspection and Enforcement.
790406O DS')
Mr. Cordell Reed Commonwealth Edison Company March 14,1979 Changes which would not decrease the effectiveness of your approved security plan may be made without approval by the Commission pursuant to the authority of 10 CFR 50.54(p). A report containing a description of each change shall be furnished to the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D. C.
20555, with a copy to the appropriate NRC Regional Office within two months after the change is made. Records of changes made without Commission approval shall be maintained for a period of two years from the date of the change.
These amendments apply to the physical security plan and therefore do not authorize a change in effluent types or total amounts nor an increase in power level, and will not result in any significant environ-mental impact. Having made this determination, we have further co.ncluded that these amendments involve an action which is insignificant from ?.he standpoint of environmental impact and pursuant to 10 CFR 551.5(d)(4) that an environmental impact statement, or negative declaration and environmental impact appraisal need not be prepared in connection with the issuance of these amendments.
Since these amendments apply to the physical security plan, they do not involve significant new safety information of a type not considered-by a previous Commission safety review of the facility. They do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident, do not involve a significant decrease in a safety margin, and therefore do not involve a significant hazards consideration.
We have also concluded that there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by this action and that the issuance of these amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
A copy of the related Notice of Issuance is also enclosed.
Sincerely,
/..Wa %
A. Schwencer, Chief Operating Reactors Branch #1 Division of Operating Reactors
