GPU NUCLEAR CORPORATION THREE MILE ISLAND NVCLEAR STATION. UNIT NO._1 DOCKET NO. 50-289 f

1.0 INTRODUCTION

By letter dated February 7, 1994, the GPU Nuclear Corporation (GPUN or the licensee) submitted a request for changes to the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit No I (THI-1) Technical Specifications (TS). The TMI-1 request revises the due date for the annual radioactive effluent release report consistent with the due date for the TMI-2 radioactive effluent release i

report.

The current TS requires the THI-l report be submitted within 60 days after January 1 of each year.

Changing the TMI-l due date to prior'to May 1 enables the licensee to combine the reports for THI-1 and TMI-2 into a single report with a common due date.

2.0 EVALUATION The staff finds that submission of the annual radioactive effluent release report prior to May 1 of each year in accordance with the change, as compared to the current requirement of March 1, does not involve a significant increase in the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

The date on which the report is due has no impact on plant operations or control of effluents.

It does not change the control of plant activities or the enonitoring of plant effluents.

On the basis of its review of the above items, the staff concludes that the licensee's proposed amendment is administrative. Accordingly, the staff finds the proposed 'iS change to be acceptable.

3.0 STATE CONSULTATION

In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the Pennsylvania State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment. The State official had no comments.
