As discussed during a telephone conversation on April 7, 1988, the attached Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station Technical Specifications pages 6.1 and 6.2 have been amended to reflect additional information added as a result of Generic Letter 88-06. It is requested that these specific pages be substituted for those contained in our original submittal of July 6, 1987.
This change has no effect on the Safety Evaluation or the Significant Hazards Determination. This change has been reviewed by the Plant Safety Review Committee and the Nuclear Safety Review Committee. The initial processing fee of $150.00 was included with the July 6, 1987 submittal.
If you have any questions, please advise.
