UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION DOCKET NO. 50-298 NEBRASKA PUBLIC POWER DISTRICT NOTICE OF ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has issued Amendment No. 73 to Facility Operating License No. DPR-46, issued to Nebraska Public Power District (the licensee), which revised the Technical Specifications for operation.of the Cooper Nuclear Station located in Nemaha County, Nebraska.

The amendment is effective as of the date of its issuance.

This amendment modifies Appendix A of the Technical Specifications to delete the requirement that the scram discharge volume high water level scram signal be operative while the reactor is in the shutdown mode. Since the control rods are fully inserted when the reactor is in the shutdown mode, the availability of the scram discharge volume is not required. The Standard Technical Specifications fo,r General Electric Boiling Water Reactors (NURE'G-0123, Rev. 3) only require this trip to be operative in the startup mode, run mode, and refueling mode (when a contrnl rod is withdrawn).

The application for the amendment complies with the standards and require-ments of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commission's rules and regulations.

The Commission has made appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Commission's rules and regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in the license. amendment.

Prior public notice of this amendment was not required since the amendment does'not involve a significant hazards consideration.
