IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING CONTENTS OF THIS REPORT PLEASE READ CAREFULLY O

This report was prepared by General Electric Company (GE) solely for the Power Authority of the State of New York (The Authority) for The O Authority's use with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) for amending The Authority's operating license of the James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant. The information contained in this report is believed by GE to be an accurate and true representation of the facts known, O obtained or provided to GE at the time this report was prepared.

The only undertakings of the General Electric Company respecting information in this document are contained in the contract between The O Authority and GE for nuclear fuel and related services for the nuclear system for The James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant, dated August 1, 1981, and nothing contained in this document shall be construed as changing said contract. The use of this information except as defined by said

'O contract, or for any purpose other than that for which it is intended, is not authorized; and with respect to any such unauthorized use, neither GE nor any of the contributors to this document or that such use of such information may not infringe privately owned rights; nor do they assume any O responsibility for liability rr damage of any kind which may result from such use of such information.

()

The analyses required for this cycle were performed with the GEXL-PLUS

() thermal correlation. In analyses prior to Cycle 9 (Reload 8), the GEXL thermal correlation was used. The incorporation of GEXL-PLUS into the fuel cycle analysis process is provided for in Amendment 15 to GESTAR-II i (NEDE-24011-P-A-8).

The analyses required for this cycle were performed with the upgraded O safety limit MCPR of 1.04, instead of the previous safety limit MCPR of 1.07.

The implementation of this safety limit is a result of the utilization of fuel types with high bundle P-factors, as stipulated in Amendment 14 to GESTAR-II (NEDE-24011-P-A-8).
