Docket No. 50-267 l

SUBJECT:

Proposed License Amendment-Addition of Early Shutdown Statement 1

REFERENCE:

1) NRC. letter, Heitner to Williams, dated 04/19/89 (G-89137) l

Dear Mr. Hebdon:

3 l

This is an amendment request te the Fort St. Vrain Facility Operating License No. DPR-34, submitted in response to Reference (1), to add a i

license condition regarding early shutdown-of Fort St. Vrain.

j is a summary of the proposed change.' Attachment 2 is the proposed change to the existing license. ~contains a "No 4

Significant Hazards Consideration Analysis" for the proposed change.

PSC requests that the amendment statement included in Reference (1) be modified to reflect a 2% of full power restriction rather than the j

l 5% restriction requested by the NRC. There are several reasons for i

PSC's request.

PSC does not intend to take the reactor critical i

after final shutdown.

However,-if any' unanticipated circumstances j

require the reactor to be taken critical, a 2% power restriction will.

avoid any significant heat being added to the core. A 2% power level is sufficient to perform any reactor criticality experiments.

Additionally, a

2% power restriction will avoid entering the " power l

operation" definition as described in the Fort St.

Vrain Technical Specifications.
