February 4, 1985 MEMORANDUM FOR: Regional Administrators Director, Office of Inspection and Enforcement Director, Office of the Executive Legal l Director '

Director, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards NRR Division Directors FROM: Darrell G. Eisenhut, Director Division of Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation

SUBJECT:

OL REVIEW MANAGEMENT REPORT Enclosed is the OL Review Management Report which reflects the status of the subject plants as of December 1984. All the inputs for this report were reviewed by the applicable DL Project Manager. Therefore, if warranted and the information were readily available, some portions of the report were updated beyond the December 1984 cutoff date. Perry 1 has been added to this report because it is within one year of licensing. The Catawba report has been deleted because a full power license was issued on January 17, 1985.

Two tables have been added to this report. The first gives the licensing schedule for each plant included in this report. The second provides a short description of the ma,ior issues affecting each case.

Please provide your markup of this report to me by COB February 14, 1084, the cutoff date for the next report.

SUMMARY

OF MAJOR ISSUES PLANT MAJOR ISSUES .

f Limerick 1 A low power license was issued on October 26, 1984. The plant will be ready to exceed 5%

power during the week of February 25, 1985.

However, a full power license cannot be issued until a favorable ASLB decision is made on

~

offsite emergency planning, which is currently scheduled for May 1985. Plant operation may also be impacted by the constructica completion of the Point Pleasant Diversion Project, which will be used for condenser cooling makeup when the Schuylkill River is not available due to temperature and flow restrictions.

I Lic:nsing Status of Limerick -

3-Other Potential Problems PECo intends to use water from the Delaware River for make-up for condenser cooling evaporative loss when the Schuylkill River is not available based on flow and/or temperature restrictions. Power production would be possible only part of the year without the supplemental water. Construction of the Point Pleasant Station by the local water resource authority, which would divert 1

Delaware River water for several uses, including Limerick, has been delayed by

. opposition of local county officials. Resolution of this issue involves the j two affected counties, local water resources commission (NWRA), as well as the applicant and other governmental agencies. Just recently, on January 5,1985, a Bucks County Court Judge ruled that the contracts between PECo and the NWRA are valid and enforceable and ordered performance by NWRA to meet the terms of the contracts. Following the possible appeal of this decision, a decision on appeal favorable to PECo, selection of a construction contractor and resumption of construction, it would take about 9 months to complete the project. This would likely place its completion sometime in 1986.

This past...ednesday ni5ht, the rublic Utilities Go: mission held a public hearing at Celaware College, in Loylestown, ra., to help them decide whether to

$1ve the $rean light to chiladelphia llectric to pro-ceea with the building of Limrick II nuclear plant. 1

Ihe grsat preponderance of the opinions wa in i favcr of the completien of timrick II at the earliest possible time.

Caly a few were not in favor or its early com-pletion. .

. .. hen timrick II is completed, it will need a

' coolant, and 'cr many years Sucks and . ontsca3ry coun-ties hs ys planned a cumping station at i t. z lessant, ia., and havs invited the zhiladelphia Ilectric Joepany to be a third party in the bu11 din 3 cf this new pump.

In return, the rhiladelphia :lectric CcTpacy will pick up much of th3 c:st of the new plant, thus makin3 it such easier on the tax r.ayers. Lince th2 Democratic party has gotten centrol of the Bucks county commisalon, they hkve appointed only those that havo opposed th9 comple tion of the pump, and have wasted the monies that had been accumulated to build the pumpin.; statten at .

dollars. A 3reat deal of ths =cne / has been span:, on high priced lawyers, to at'ep the contracts fro;a bM ag c.mpleted, contracts which ware alrnedy .c c: oration, and which the U. c. Ccnatitutten holds tuviolate.

The taxes have be;un to increase in Bucks county, and durin5 the . act year have 3cne up acout ei ght . mills, and tha ecunty sest 'elletin boted haa many sherri*'s sales posted.
