As recuestec in vcur letter,

.e are prov icing confirmation that we can eitner maxe tne imalenentation dates of NUREG 0737 cr for the cates.e cannot meet.e have Orcccsec revised dates and justification for the celays. Enclosure 1 lisis a:1 the to ics listec in 0737 that apply to Oyster Creek anc nave een ccepletec cr

.ill te comple*ed on senecule. Encfosures 2, 3, 4, and 5 describe those to:ics

.nich soply to Oyster Creek and for which ne are proposi ng a change to the i~piementa+ ion scnecule er eriteria cescritec in NUREG C737.

.i e are no+ in a p c s i t i on to corr. i + to neet those scheculed dates in NUREG 0737 that are "TO BE DETER'.11NED" (T3D ). '.. hen those dates are establishec, we

.ill assess cur a:ility to meet them at tnat time.

cr items that recu ire moc i f icat i on s to the S t at i on,.e will make every attempt to meet all the criteria establisned in the NUREG. sowever, in the event material, equipment, or instrumentation.nien meets all the criteria cannc' be procured in time to meet the senecule, we will use a suitable substitute. The cualifiec material, ecuipment, or instrumentation.ill be installed at the first plannec outage of sufficient duration after it is receivec onsite.

Inis ;3tter ref l ects +he present status of cur committment to NUREG 0737.
