Dear Mr. Brittain:
A'recent study;of the additional' time needed to complete the operating license. hearing process indicates that a number of plants have the potential for being ready to load fuel from a construction standpoint before the NRC decision on issuance of an operating license is reached.
In order to eliminate or minimize the impact of the licensing and hearing process on current operating license-applications, revised NRC staff Safety Evaluation Report (SER) and Supplemental _ Safety Evaluation Report (SSER) dates have been established to be used:in work load scheduling by the NRC Office of
~ Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR). A list of plants showing our current schedules for-technical input to the NRR Division of Licensing (DL) for SER and SSERs is enclosed (Enclosure 1).
I am also enclosing a more com-prehensive schedule showing the relationship of the:e schedules to other important dates in the licensing process (Enclosure 2).
In general, the changes from pre,fous schedules accelerate the due date for all technical input in order to allow time for a more extended hearing proceas. The Commission currently is examining the details of the hearing process seeking-ways to eliminate. unnecessary delays without jeopardizing any legitimate interests of the parties affected or the public health and safety. This examination is not.yet complete.
In order for ".he NRR. technical staff to meet these accelerated schedules, all infomation concerning your application-identified as needed by the NRR
{
staff must be provided by-you or your contractors at least two weeks prior to the date' indicated for staff technical input to DL.-
However, for SER's i
scheduled to be issued after June 1981, applicants should provide Equipment-i Qualification (EQ) information in accordance with IE Bulletin 79-01B at'least four. months prior.to the SER issuance date. This request!for EQ infomation j
amends the previous ' guidance provided in a letter from R.' Tedesco, Assistant Director for Licensing dated. November 25, 1980., _Your personal-attention and commitment is needed to make these ~ accelerated schedules 'possible.
l'also request-that you' arrange to have people, who can represent you and who can resolve any last minute _ open items, in residence near NRR headquarters in 7 ethesda during the' twofweeks immediately preceding the scheduled technical B
F input deadlines. Your staff is requested to contact the Licensing Project '
' Manager for specific _ needs_ related to the review of your application.

s Mr. Perry Brittain, President MAR 131981 Of course, if information concerning your applica' tion is not available when needed, the NRC staff will be unable to avoid changing your plant's priority consistent with other scheduled work. Working under the very tight schedule indicated means that a slip will affect not only your SER is',uance date but will also delay other scheduled dates in the licensing and hearing process related to your plant, including the decision date.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
I will keep you advised of additional information concerning this request and of any further schedule revi sions.
Sincerely, YYY w
Harold R. Denton, Director Of fice of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
