4 NRC-98-054 October 30,,1998 DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES The enclosed changed pages of the License' Application reflect NRC Staff's expressed satisfaction with responses to their Request for Additional Information related to the original

' April 3,1998 submittal of the Amendment Request for Revision 110 of SNM-1107; including, in accordance with the October 28,1998 NRC/ Westinghouse Staff telecon, deletion of the proposed definition of "significant spreadable radioactive contamination." In addition, another " structured incident evaluation" (i.e., " Specific Cause Determination") has been added to Section 3.7.2 (page 3.18).

The pagination of this submittal still reflects (to a minor degree) the previously discussed anomaly resulting from Westinghouse confusion of " Revision Number" versus " Amendment Number." This has been manually corrected in all on-site copies of the License Application; and, in accordance with a prior commitment, will be electronically corrected (with a complete correct copy of the License Application submitted to NRC Staff) when Revisions 10 and 11 have been approved.
