s' Middletown, Pennsylvania 17057 Gentlemen:
i By letter dated May 7,1981 (copy enclosed), we requested an additional sum of
$6,400 in fees pursuant to 10 CFR 170.22 for your July 7,1978 and April 18, 1930 applicai. ions for THI-2. We tiave not received the requested fees; therefore, they should be remitted to our office within fifteen days after your receipt of this j
letter.
l l
in addition, we have received copies of the following applications for TMI-1 and.-2 which were filed with the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (0.*1RR) for review:
1.
Technical Specification Change Request No. 27 dated June 10, 1981. This request proposed changes in the TMI-2 Appendix B Technical Specifications to add requirements for limits on offsite doses due to the release of radioactive materials and requirements for reporting those offsite doses. The reason for the change was stated to be for the purpose of assuring that the design objective of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 is not exceeded and that the actual environmental impacts are consistent with those assessed in the Programatic Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS). Your Company determined that this request is not subject to the fees of 10 CFR 170.22 because it was requested by the USNRC; is consistent with the Policy Statement of April 27, 1981, and j
fulfills the requirement of Appendix R of the PEIS.
f I
Under the provisions of 10 CFR 170, the USNRC may, and does, exempt from fees I
certain applications that qualify under Footnote 2 to 10 CFR 170.22 (i.e.,
license amendments or approvals resulting from USNRC orders issued pursuant to 10 CFR 2.204 and Class I, II, or III amendments that have only ninor safety significance which are requested in wr.iting by the USNRC for the purpose of simplifying or clarifying the license or Technical Specifications for the convenience of the USNRC).
If an application clearly meets either of these footnote provisions, it is generally exempted from fees.
Based on infomation provided by the ONRR staff as a result of a preliminary review of your June 10 applicuion, it has been determined that: (a)this application does not qualif* > > exemption under Footnote 2 and (b) the application is considered tc e nvolve a review of an administrative nature.
On this basis, a Class Il fee of $1,200 is required.

to use one-hour fire patrols when fire barriers are inoperable during certain modes at TMI-1. A Class II fee of $1,200 was remitted with this application.
l Your letter dated October 24, 1980, requested that the $1,200 fee paid be returned to you because the application would not be processed as submitted and that the resubmittal of this application, according to the ONRR staff, would be considered a part of the fire protection program for which the USNRC is not charging fees.
We have been exempting from fees those fire protection applications that were filed prior;to the 10 CFR 50.48/ Appendix R requirements. On this basis, we have determined that an exemption pursuant to 10 CFR 170.11(b) from the l
fee requirements of 10 CFR.170.22 is authorized by law, and such exemption is otherwise in the public interest and is hereby granted for your September 30, t
1980 application. Therefore, a refund of the $1,200 is due your Company.
In consideration of items 1 and 2 above, a sum of $1,200 is due the USNRC for the June 10,1981 THI-2 application and a refund of $1,200 is due your Company for the September 30, 1980 TMI-1 application. As a result, we are applying the refund due you to the amount owed the USNRC. He hope that your Company finds this transaction to be an acceptable one.
If the ONRR staff's final evaluation of your June 10, 1981 application reveals that the Class II fee is not correct, your Company will be notified and an adjustment will be made.
Sincerely, orising signedby wm. o. Mmer William 0. Miller, Chief.
