--Dear Mr. Chilk

.4

Subject:

Notice of Receipt of Petition'for Rulemaking (NRPR)

Revisions.to Final Safety Analysis Reports, t

10 CFR Part 50

-y

-We' nave reviewed the subject NRPR which appeared in Federal Register on May 3, l

-1990..The petition was filed with the Commission by the Yankee Atomic Electric,

' Company requesting that'the NRC change the requirement that nuclear power plant l'icensees file revisions to the final safety analysis report within six months

.following' completion of each planned refueling. outage for'their facilities.

The reasons provided by the petitioner for this change are to permit taore effective utilization of both licensee'and NRC resources; and, to allow more meaningful: scheduling for-FSAR based on the fact that practically every operating facility schedules the implementation of major physical changes to coincide with planned refueling outages.'.

[

GPU. Nuclear. supports the petitioner's request and believes that each licensee should be given'the flexibility of adopting the change proposed by the

' petitioner which will, in our opinion, result in significant benefit to both

-the licensee and NRC without compromising health and safety of the general-

- N public.

3 We fully endorse the letter sent to you on July 2, 1990 by Nuclear Management

-),

,and. Resources Council (NUMARC) which transmitted the industry comments on the F

subject matter.

Very truly yours, 25 t
