NPF-2 and Amendment No. 3 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-8 authorized a six day extension from Technical Specification requirements to allow repairs to diesel generator IC. The planned maintenance evolved into a major overhaul and more time is necessary to complete the repairs.

The present amendments were authorized by telephone on August 7,1981. The amendments revise the previously granted extension from diesel generator opera-bility and surveillance frequency requirements to allow continued plant operation for a total of fifteen days during repairs to diesel generator 1C. The amend-ments were authorized on an expedited basis to maintain the plant at a steady-state condition and avoid a shutdown transient shown by our evaluation to be unnecessary but required by Technical Specifications unless amended.
