Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555

Dear Judge Smith:

You have recently inquired regarding the Applicant's current estimates of the fuel load date for Byron Station Unit 1.

The Company has just concluded its semi-annual budget review. The target fuel load date for Byron Unit 1 remains August 31, 1983. The Company believes that fuel load by that date is achievable. Nonetheless, there are a substantial number of construction and pre-operational testing matters which must be concluded on a timely basis in order for fuel load to proceed on that date. Accordingly, as a planning contingency, the Company's budget for the project includes provisions which the Company believes sufficient to provide for a delay of up to four months in the tuel load date. Notwithstanding this planning con-tingency, Commonwealth Edison Company is devoting all resources necessary to achieve fuel load by the August 31, 1983 date.

l I will, of course, keep the Board and parties informed of any developments with respect to the fuel load date for Byron Unit 1.

I
