Dear Mr. Vassallo:
In Reference 1, the Authority requested exemption from the provisions of 10 CFR 50.44 (c) (3) (ii) for the James A.
FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant based on the technical analysis contained in NEDO-22155 (Reference 4).
In conversations with the Project Manager for the FitzPatrick Plant in July of 1983, the Authority was advised that the NRC was in the process of reevaluating the Hydrogen Rule as it applies to Mark I plants.
The Authority, therefore, requested a schedular exemption in Reference 2 pending the results of the NRC evaluation.

-In Reference 3, the Commission granted an exemption to extend the date for' compliance to December 31, 1983.
.Recently, the Authority has been advised by the NRC Project Manager for the FitzPatrick plant, that the reevaluation is still in progress.
If the NRC reevaluation is not completed by December 31,1983,. the expiration of the schedular exemption would place the Authority in violation of the rule.
Therefore, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.12, the Authority requests an extension of the schedular exemption until the Commission's reevaluation is complete.
The basis for this request is de-tailed in References 1 and 4.
Notwithstanding this request.for.an extension of the schedular exemption, the Authority's original request 1for a permanent exemption still stands.
If you have any questions regarding the Authority's exemption requests, please contact Mr. J. A. Gray, Jr. of my staff.
Very truly yours, W#
J.
