A new computer system is in the process of development that will include a database for reporting radioactive effluer t releases in the format n ? - '

Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 1. . This database.is expected to be completed by January 1, 1991. .Notwithstanding complications with the development of the new computer system, current plans are to_ submit the semiannual report for the first six months of 1991 in the Revision 1 format L by August 30, 1991.-

1 l~ A proposed revision to Unit 1 Technical Specification 6.12.2.6(b) and Unit 2 Technical Specification 6.9.3.1 will.be submitted to request the change to Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 1.
