ARTS/MELLLA IMPLEMENTATION Docket Nos. 50-387 PLA-6150 and 50-388

Reference:

PLA Letter PLA-5931, Britt T McKinney (PPL)to USNRC "SusquehannaSteam Electric Station ProposedLicense Amendment Numbers 279for Unit 1 OperatingLicense No.

NPF-14 and 248 for Unit 2 OperatingLicense No. NPF-22."ARTS/MELLLA Implementation, "dated November 18, 2005.

The purpose of this letter is to amend PPL's proposed implementation schedule for the ARTS/MELLLA amendment. In the above reference, PPL stated in the cover letter "After NRC approval, PPL plans to implement ARTS/MELLLA on Unit 1. PPL plans to implement PRNMS and ARTS/MELLLA on Unit 2 during the Spring 2007 Outage."

When the above implementation schedules were proposed, PPL was planning to install ARTS/MELLLA while Unit 1 was online. Based on more recent evaluation, PPL has decided to install ARTS/MELLLA in Unit 1 during a scheduled outage but not later than the Unit 1 Spring 2008 Outage. Therefore, PPL requests that the implementation date for the Unit 1 ARTS/MELLLA amendment be prior to the startup following the Unit 1 Spring 2008 Outage.

Unit 2's implementation date for these changes remains prior to startup following the Unit 2 Spring 2007 Outage.
