CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-413 AND 50-414 ORDER EXTENDING CONSTRUCTION COMPLETION DATES Duke Power Coopany, North Carolina Municipal Power Agency Number 1 North Carolina Electric Mentership Corporation, and Saluda River Electric Cooperative, Inc. are the current holders of Construction Permit Nos. CPPR-116 and CPPR-117 issued by the Nuclear Regulatory Connission on August 7,1975 for the Catawba Nuclear Station. These facilities are presently under construction at the applicants' site on the shore of Lake Wylie in York County, South Carolina. By letter dated April 30, 1981, Duke Power Company filed a request for an extension of the latest construction completion dates for the facilities to March 1, 1984 for Unit 1 and to September 1,1985 for Unit 2.

This extension was requested due to (1) a delay in completion of support systems for the auxiliary boiler, (2) problems with vendor deliveries which in turn delayed installation of equipment, (3) impact on manpower due to projects resulting from the accident at Three Mile Island, (4) a revised preoperational test plan, and (5) a delay in erection of piping support restraints caused by late design information, a shortage of key support restraint material and an increase in the total number of support restraints required.

This action involves no significant hazards con. sideration, good cause has been shown for the delay, and the requested extension is for a reasonable period, the bas $s for which are set forth in the staff evaluation.

The preparation of an environnental inpact statenont for this particular action is not warranted because there will be no significant environmental inpact attributable to the Order other than that which has already been predicted and described in the Comniission's Final Environmental Statement-Construction Permit Stage for the Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2, published in Decenter 1973. A Negative Declaration and an Environ-mental Impact Appraisal have been prepared and are available, as are the above stated documents, for public inspection at the Comnission's Public Document Room, 1717 H Street, N.W., Washington, D. C.

20555 and at the local public document room established for the Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 at the York County Library, 325 South Dakland Avenue, Rock Hill, South Carolina 29730.

It is HEREBY ORDERED THAT the latest completion date for CPPR-116 be extended from June 1,1981 to March 1,1984 and the latest date for CPPR-117 be extended from June 1,1982 to September 1,1985.
