WASHINGTON H. O. C' FEB 1 51962 Decket No. 50-lh6 Change No. 1 Saxton Nuclear F.xperimental Corporation P. O. Box 5h2 Reading, Pennsylvania Attention: Mr. D. R. Rees General Manager Gentlement This refers to your Change Request No. 1 dated January 11, 1962 requesting AEC authorization to make a change in the Technical Specifi-cations in License No. DPR-b pursuant to paragraph 3.B. of the license.

We have reviewed the proposed change in Section 7.(j) of the Tecimical Specifications and have found that authorizing a decrease in the sensitivity of the source range startup instmmentation in the manner proposed does not present significant hazards considerations not described or implicit in the Final Safeguards Report, as defined in License No.

DPR-h, and that there is reasonable aosurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation of the reactor under the proposed Tcchnical Specifications change. A copy of our related hazards analysis is enclosed.

In view of the foregoing, Technical Specification 7.(j) is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

87,Q) F rtup instrumentation consista e' ri and m ediate range channels.

w..

• av nila in+ emediate re.nge clunolo cov3r from 2.5 x 102 ny to 7 x 108 nv which is up to 10% of full power, provided; however, that if a mininsm rate of 5 counts per second is not achieved during startup, the instrumentation shall be 2.5 x 10 ghanged so that source range channels cover from nv to 2 3 nv while intermediate range cranels coverfrom2.5x10gx10 nv to 7 x 100 nv.

There is a fast startup rate screa which is initiated by the inter:.odiate range clanels.#
