,, v y JUL 31193 C0CKET NO. 50-271 Vemont Yankee Nuclear Power Corporation Engineering Office ATTH: Mr. Robert H. Groce Licensing Engineer 20 Turnpike Road Westboro, Massachusetts 01581 Gentlemen:
13,1979(WVY79-15)proposedChange We have received a copy of yeur February No. 78 for Facility License Mc. OpR-28 which you filed with the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation for review and approval. The application proposed radiological effluent technical specifications for your Vemont Yankee Nuclear facility as required by Appendix I of 10 CFR 50. Fees pursuant to 10 CFR 170.22 were not forwarded with your application because you considered it a supplement to your submittal of June 2,1976, on Appendix I; fees were not applicable when the requirements of Appendix I became effective; and the submittal of the Appendix ! technical specifications was delayed pending guidance from NRC which was not issued until July 11,1978.
The applicability of fees is not detennined by the date of a regulation which requires submission of an application or request, but rather by the date of the submittal and whether NRC review and approval are now requested and/or required.
In fact, for most applications requiring amendments and/or approvals, the regu-23, 1978 addition of Section lation requiring the application predates the March 170.22.
Although NRC development of staff review procedures for Appendix I was ccepleted in August 1975, subsequent meetings with licensees revealed the need for mere Without such guidance there was not reasonable assurar.ce guidance in this area.
that the requirements of Appendix I would be adequately and consistently addressec It is our understanding that the. guidance will decrease the by licensees.
number of NRC requests to licensees to provide additional data and/or to resubmit previous filings to more adequately comply with the regulation require n nts for keeping radioactivity in effluents as low as reasonably achievable.
Based on the above considerations and upon discussions with the MRR staff, we have determined that the Class !!! amendment fee of S4.000 is appropriate for
