Notification of Completion of First itefueling Outage Commitments Gentlemen:
New llampshire Yankee (NilY) provides in the Enclosure notification of the completion of actions committed to be taken during the first ref ueling outage. A summary of each required action and the completion at tisity is provided in the Enclosure. The referenced documentation is available for review at Seabrook Station.
All ::etions related to rc gulatory commarnents acquired or scheduled to be taken by NilY during the first refueling outage are complete, implementation on ite ns 1 through 19 of the Enclosure is complete and no f urther action by NilY is required. New llampshire Yankee action on item 20, Generie Letter 90 06, cannot be completed until the NitC issues the Tcchnical Specifications requested by NilY License Amendment itequest 91 ON.
The Seabrook Station Facility Operating License, N P F- 86, contains two License Conditions, C.(3)(a) and C.(3)(b), regarding human factors engineering that were completed prior to startup from the first refueling outage. NilY notified the NitC, on September 24, 1991 [ Reference (b)], of completion of these conditions. New llampshire Yankee requests that these License Conditions be removed concurrent with the next Amendment to f acility Operating 1.icense No. NPF40.
