The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) review and approval of the LaSalle Unit 1 Cycle 12 reload under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59, "Changes, tests and experiments," and to transmit the Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) for Cycle 12, consistent with Generic Letter 88-16, "Removal of Cycle-Specific Parameter Limits From Technical Specifications." This report is being submitted in accordance with LaSalle County Station Technical Specification 5.6.5, "Core Operating Limits (COLFR)," item d.

The reload licensing analyses performed for Cycle 12 utilized NRC approved methodologies.

The Unit 1 Cycle 12 core, which consists of NRC approved fuel designs developed by Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF) and Framatome Advanced Nuclear Fuel, Inc.
