SUBJECT:

ACCEPTANCE REVIEW FOR THE CLINTON POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 On December 1,1979, you tendered an application for operating licenses for the Clinton Power Station, Units 1 and 2.

Your application included a Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), Environmental Report - Operating License Stage (ER), a Physical Security Plan and General Information.

We have completed our review of your tendered application and have concluded that it is sufficiently complete to permit us to initiate our safety review.

i-Accordingly, your filing of the application should include three (3) originals signed under oath or affirmation by a duly authorized officer of your organiza-l tion.

In addition, your filing should include fifteen (15) copies of that por-tion of the application containing the general information, forty (40) copies of the Final Safety Analysis Report and forty-one (41) copies of the Environmental Report. As required by Section 50.30 of 10 CFR Part 50 and Section 51.40(b) of 10 CFR Part 51, you should retain an additional ten (10) copies of the general infomation, thirty (30) copies of the Final Safety Analysis Report and one hundred nine (109) copies of the Environmental Report for direct distribution in accordance with Enclosure 1 to this letter and further instructions which might be.provided later. Within 10 days after filing, you must provide an affidavit that distribution has been made in accordance with this enclosure. All subse-quent amendments to the Final Safety Analysis Report will require sixty (60) copies for distribution.

Our conclusion that the FSAR and ER are sufficiently complete is based on our evaluation of all information filed taken as a whole, with the realization that s,ut:tantive deficiencies may exist that need to be corrected during the review.

Enclosed for your information' and use is a copy of NUREG-0694 entitled "TMI Related Requirements for New Operating Licenses". This report lists the current TMI related requirements which have been approved by the Commission and apply to plants seeking 'a new operating license. The Clinton FSAR should be amended to satisfy the requirements of NUREG-0694.

In addition, you should reference all NRC regulations in 10 CFR Parts 20; 50; 51; and 100 and cite the sections in the FSAR where they are addressed and where compliance is demonstrated, and reference any previous NRC reviews on systems or analyses which are common to.the Clinton plant.
