Nuclear Regulatory Commission 2 Palisades Plant Request for Restart Authorization March 26, 1987 You were notified by two previous letters from Consumers Power Company of a plant operability limitation based on service water temperature of 53°F. Our December 2, 1986 submittal contained a Technical Specification change that imposed the 53°F limit and a subsequent February 25, 1987 letter contained additional information in support of the limit. Although it is our intent to request withdrawal of our December 2, 1986 Technical Specification Change Request; we will comply with the temperature limit until we have submitted and received NRC review and approval of an evaluation that justifies operation at higher service water temperatures. Consumers Power Company considers this 53°F plant operability limitation a commitment and as such may be confirmed by NRC via issuance of a Confirmatory Action Letter (CAL).

Consumers Power Company requests approval for the restart of the Palisades Plant.
