PLA-5040 Document Control Desk The ANFB-10 correlation will be used in the analysis of ATRIUM'-10fuel in place of the ANFB critical power correlation and methodology described in References 5 and 6. The ANFB correlation (Reference 3) will continue to be used in the analysis of SPC 9x9-2 fuel. The ANFB (for 9x9-2) and ANFB-10 (for ATRIUM~-10) correlations will be used with PP &L's and SPC's NRC approved methods, and analyses will be performed (consistent with those methods) to generate Core Operating Limits. Therefore, PP&L will not be submitting a change to its NRC-approved Topical Reports (Reference 4) since the methodology is the same except ANFB-10 will be used to analyze ATRIUM -10 fuel. | |||

The purpose of this letter is to propose changes to the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station Unit 1 Technical Specifications, which are similar to those recently approved in February 1999 for Unit2 (Reference 1). Reference 2 documents the NRC approved critical power 'correlation applicable to Siemens Power Corporation (SPC) ATRIUM'-10fuel (referred to as ANFB-10).
This proposed change entails the inclusion of Reference 2 in Section 5.6.5 and the inclusion of revised MCPR Safety Limits in Section 2.1.1.2. An administrative change to Section 5.6.5 is included. A number of references from Section 5.6.5 are removed in order to include only those references which directly support the generation of the Core Operating Limits and to remove the reference for the ABB Lead Use Assemblies (Reference 8), which will be discharged during the next Unit 1 outage. Associated BASES changes are also included.
