SUBJECT:

Byron Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 Cycle 7 Operating Limits Report Revision 1 NRC Docket No. 50-45_4

REFERENCE:

H.D. Pontious letter to USNRC dated October 28,1994 Pursuant to Generic Letter 88-16 " Removal of Cycle Specific Parameter Limits.From Technical Specifications," Comed is providing the NRC with Revision 1 to the Byron Unit 1 Cycle 7 Operating Limits Report. The purpose of this letter is to transmit the revised Fxy and Fq*P values for the Operating Limits Report applicable to Cycle 7 for Byron Unit 1.

The Operating Limits Report provided to the NRC in Referencc 1 included Fxy limits which penalize:2 all fuel assemblies in the core due to the missing support pins. The attached Operating Limits Report - Revision 1 provides less restrictive Fxy limits developed by applying a missing support pin penalty on an assembly specific basis as opposed to a core-wide basis.

Implenientation of this revision of the Operating Limits Report will preclude Byron Station from performing unnecessary additional surveillances, as would be required in Technical Specification 3/4.2.2, Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor - Fq(z).

The attachment to this letter provides the Operating Limits Report - Revision 1 for Cycle 7 pursuant to Technical Specification 6.9.1.9. The revised Operating Limits Report was developed by applying NRC approved reload design methodologies developed by Westinghouse. Comed has verified that the revised limits do not affect the cycle specific limits generated during the reload design process.

Please direct any questions regarding this notification to this office.

l Very Truly yours,
