Dear Mr._ Hunger:
The Commission has issued the enclosed Amendments Nos. 219 and 222 to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-44 and DPR-56 for the Peach Bottom Atoiic Power Station,-Unit Nos. 2 and 3.
These amendments consist of changes to the Technical Specifications (TSs) in response to your March 31, 1997, application-as supplemented by your June-25,_1997, letter.
These amendments extend the APRM flow bias instrumentation surveilla.ce interval from 18 months to 24 months.
This will eliminate the need to perform i
l on-line APRM surveillance testing, which requires plant operators to place an operating unit in a half-scram configuration.
Please inform me when you have
-implemented each of these amendments.
A copy of the Safety Evaluation is also enclosed. We will. include a Notice of Issuance in the Commission's Bi-Weekly Federal Reaister Notice.
Sincerely,
/S/
