P!LGRIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION POWER ASCENSION PROGRAM This letter refers to the NRC staff review of the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station Power Ascension Prcgram (Revised), as submitted by Boston Edison Company (BEco) in a letter dated August 31, 1988. The NRC staff has completed its review of the plan, as well as your initial submittal of the plan dated October 15, 1987, and your February 29 and August 4, 1988 responses to the NRC's requests for additional information.
During a Management Meeting on April 8, 1988, three issues were identified as requiring edditional NRC review:
analysis of the affect of plant modifications on the dynanic response of the plant, review of approved procedures TP87-114 and TP87-147, and Rosemount transmitter "ringing" concerns. The first two issues were resolved based on staff inspection and managerient review of these issues.
