The response to Regulatory Guide 9.3 submitted by the Philadelphia Electric Company (Philadelphia Electric) on May 3,1982 is now over six years old and will be over seven years old at the time fuel loading is projected for Unit 2 of the Limerick Generating Station.

In light of the time period that has elapsed since Philadelphia Electric's data response in 1982 and the staff's operating license antitrust review of Unit 1 of the Limerick Generating Station, completed in July of 1984, staff is requesting updated data responses from Philadelphia Electric to Question B.1 and all subsections, as well as Question B.2 of Regulatory Guide 9.3 (copy enclosed).

Your response should begin where your May 3, 1982 response ended and continue to the present. Pending transactions, agreements, etc., at the time of the initial response should be brought up to date and any new developments since the 1982 response should be addressed.

It responding, be as specific as possible and elaborate where appropriate.

For example, do not respond to a question concerning requests for power by merely giving a "yes" or a "no" response.

Elaborate with names, dates and descriptions of the type of power request.

Follow this procedtre in responding to all questions in Regulatory Guide 9.3.
