SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION SUPPORTING AMENDMENT NO. 35 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. NPF-57 PUBLIC SERVICE ELECTRIC & GAS COMPANY ATLANTIC CITY FLECTRIC COMPANY H_0PE CREEK GENERATING STATION DOCKET N0. 50-354 1
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated September 25, 1989 Public Service Electric & Gas Company l.
requested an amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-57 for the I
Hope Creek Generating Station.
The proposed amendment would modify the Technical Specification by deleting references to conditions permitted during the startup testing procram.
l.
2.0 EVAltlATION I
The changes reauested in this submittal revise TS which permitted various conditions and initial values during the Startup Test Program.
These changes generally consist of specifications which either:
(i) reference conditions that do not exist or are no longer applicable, (ii) do not contain a specific value but rather reference the fact that the value will be determined later, or (iii) contain a specific value but ioentify the value as preliminary.
The Startup Test Program has been completed and the original TS values can now be finalized. These changes would aid operational use of the TS and assure that information contained within the document is accurate, even if more conservative.
3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
This amendment involves a change to a requirement with respect to the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20 and changes to the surveillance reouirements.
The staff has determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the tvpes, of any effluents that may be released offsite and that there is 'no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
The Comission has previously issued a proposed finding that this amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public coment on such finding. Accorcingly, this amendment h
meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 l
CFR51.22(c)(9).
Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact I
statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.

4.0 CONCLUSION
The Commission made a proposed determination that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration which was oublished in the Federal Reaister (54 FR 46156) on November 1, 1989 and consulted with the State of New Jersey.
No public comments were received and the State of New Jersey did not have any comments.
The staff has concluded, based on the considerations ciscussed above, that:
(1) there is reasonable assurar.ce that the health and sa#ety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, and (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations and the issuance of this amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security nor to the health and safety of the public.
