May 2, 1997 Mr. Michael B. Sellman, President Maine Yankee Atomic Power Company 329 Bath Road Brunswick, ME 04011
SUBJECT:
ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT (TAC NO. M97935)
Dear Mr. Sellman:
The Commission has issued the enclosed Amendment No.157 to Facility Operating License No. DPR-36 for the Maine Yankee Atomic Power Station, in response to your application dated February 7, 1997.
The amendment revises TS 3.12, " Station Service Power," to require both 115 kV power circuits to be operable when the reactor is critical and to limit or restrict the time during which Maine Yankee may continue to operate if one or both of the 115 kV power circuits become inoperable.
These proposed changes place more restrictive operability requirements on the Maine Yankee offsite power system and provide increased assurance that power will remain available to the onsite distribution system while the reactor is critical.
A copy of the related Safety Evaluation is also enclosed.
Notice of Issuance will be included in the Commission's biweekly Federal Reaister Notice.
Sincerely, Original Signed By Daniel H. Dorman, Project Manager Project Directorate I-3 Division of Reactor Projects - I/II Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-309 Distribution Docket File VBeaston
