,May 26, 1989 Docket No. 50-293 Mr. Ralph G. Bird Senior Vice President - Nuclear Boston Edison Company Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station RFD#1, Rocky Hill Road Plymouth, Massachusetts 02360

Dear Mr. Bird:

Enclosed for your information are copies of a Director's Decision, letter of transmittal and Federal Register notice issued by the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation in response to a Petition filed under 10 CFR 2.206 of the Commission's regulations. The Petition was filed by Ms. Susan Hiatt on behalf of the Ohio Citizens for Responsible Energy (OCRE). The Petitioner expressed concerns regarding the March 9, 1988 power oscillation event at LaSalle, Unit 2 and requested that the Director and Commission take specified action with respect to all boiling water reactors. As discussed in the enclosed Director's Decision, the Petitioner's request under 10 CFR 2.206 has been denied. However, the Petitioner's request to reopen rulemaking proceedings regarding Anticipated Transients Without Scram (ATWS) is being treated as a petition for rulemaking under 10 CFR 2.802 of the Commission's regulations.

Please contact me at (301) 492-1433 if you have any questions on this issue.

Sincerely.

Original signed by:

Richard H. Wessman, Director Project Directorate I-3 Division of Reactor Projects I/II
