==Dear Sir:==

This application for amendment to the James A. FitzPatrick Technical Specifications                                                    )
(TS) relocates portions of the " Reactor Coolant System - Coolant Chemistry" specification l                                             3/4.6.C. from the Technical Specifications to the James A. FitzPat:ick Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) and to applicable plant procedures that t.re controlled by the 10                                                                  i l
i CFR 50.59 process. The Technical Specifications for " Coolant Ct emistry" contain specifications for reactor coolant specific activity, conductivity, and chloride coricentration.                                                    '
This amendment will relocate the specifications for reactor coolarat conductivity and I
chloride concentration and retain the specification for reactor caolant specific activity.
I                                              The specifications for reactor coolant conductivity and enloride concentration do not meet l                                              any of the screening criteria for retention in the Technical Specifications in accordance with the Commission's " Final Policy Statement on Technical Specifications improvement for l
l                                               Nuclear Power Plants" (Reference 1). Also, the removal of these specifications is consistent with NUREG-1433, " Standard Technical Specifications - General Electric Plants, l                                               BWR/4." A similar TS amendment was approved on February 22,1996 for the Public Service Electric and Gas Company's Salem Generating Station Units 1 and 2 (Reference 2).
The signed original of the Application for Amendment to the Operating License is enclosed for filing. Attachment I contains the proposed new Technical Specification pages.
