RE: ARKANSAS liUCLEAR ONE, U!.II I On hovember 29, 1976, the Commission publishec in the Federal Register, (copy enclosed) an amendeu Section 20.103 of 10 LFR 20, whir oecame effective on Decenber 29, 1976. One effect of this revision is that in order to receive crettit for limiting the inhalation of airborne radioactive material, respiratory protective equipnent nust be used as stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15.
Another requirement of the amended regulation is that licensees authorized to take allowance for use of respiratory protective equipnent prior to December 29, 1976, must bring the use of their respiratory protective equipment into conformance with Regulatory Guide 8.15 by December 29, 1977.
Because the respiratory protective progran described in Section 6.11 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 amendnent of your Technical Specifications.
In view of the provisions of Section 6.10 of your Technical Specifications, which require conforcance with 10 CFR 20, the fact that Section 20.103 no lenger requires specific authorization to e. ploy respiratory protective equipnent, and the revocation provisions of subsection 6.11.3, we conclude that the necessary aneticent to your facility's Technical Specifications can be effected by :nerely deleting Subsection 6.11.
Accordingly, this is to advise you that pursuant to 10 CR 20.103(c) and (f), if you desire to receive credit for use of resciratory protective equirvent at your facility af ter December 28, 1977, such use nust be cs stipulated in negulatory Guice 8.16 rather than as specified in your lll $
