implementation'in the 00AM. Your letter stated that Revision 15 accurately

-reflects changes made to the 0QAM since the last submittal which, according to our records, was Revision 14 dated December 18, 1995, and therefore, should

.also be considered as an 00AM update in accordance with 10 CFR 50.71.
