Appendix H Section III.C.

2.1 Hosmer letter to the NRC dated November 18,1997, transmitting Supplement to the Technical Specification Amendment Request Reference I transmitted the Commonwealth Edison Company's (Comed's) request to integrate the weld metal surveillance program of Byron Unit I and Unit 2, and Braidwood Unit 1 and Unit 2. WCAP-14824, Revision 1," Byron Unit 1 Heat Up and Cool Down Limit Curves for Nonnal Operations and Surveillance Weld Metal Integration for Byron &

Braidwood" was included in that correspondence. Subsequent to that submittal, Comed and the Staff have had several conversations regarding this WCAP. Accordingly, Comed has revised WCAP-14824 to address these comments. Revision 2 contains:

All newly available data based on the June 30,1997, FTI letter INS-97-2526 (referenced in NDIT BYR97-346, Rev. 0). This data has been incorporated into the weld metal best-estimate chemistry values. The new data had no adverse impact.

Irradiation environment analysis. This analysis has been expanded using the October 14,1996, Zion submittal Item 11 as a guide.
