1 U.NITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION DAIRYLAND POWER COOPERATIVE DOCKET NO. 50-409 NOTICE OF CONSIDERAlION OF ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT TO FACILITY LICENSE AND OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING j The United States Nuclear Regulatory Comnission (the Commission) is considering issuance of an amendment to Facility License No. DPR-45, issued to Dairy 1Lnd Power Cooperative (the licensee), for the physical security l l

of the Lacrosse.8 oiling Water Reactor (LACBWR) located in Vernon County, Wisconsin.

The licensee submitted proposed amendments to the Physical Security Plan, Guard Force Training and Qualification Plan and the Safeguards Contingency Plan for LACBWR. The proposed amendments to these plans reflect a reduction in scope to cover on,1y the storage of spent fuel. The basis for the changes is premised on LACBWR being permanently shutdown on April 30, 1987, and the licensee's letter dated May 22, 1987 (LAC-12234) which requested that Provisional License No. DPR-45 for LACBWR be amended to a possession-only status. On June 12, 1987, all fuel had been removed from the reactor and stored in the Fuel Element Storage Well. The licensee's request for a possession-only status was approved by the NRC as reflected in License Amendmerit No. 56 which was issued on August 4,1987.

The proposed amendments only eliminate areas, eculpment, systems and procedures that have been deemed unnecessary for a nuclear power facility I

which has been permanently shutdown and require the licensee to implement certain security measures comensurate with the risks associated with I

ctnrana of scent fuel.
