Subject:

Future FSAR Submittals

• I Gentlemen:

In Reference (b), New Hampshire Yankee (NHY) provided a schedule for 3 amending the FSAR through submission of the updated FSAR which we committed  !

to submit within twenty-four months of issuas.ce of a low power operating license. The NRC approved this schedule in Reference _(c). The low power' operating license was issued on May 26, 1989, and NHY will-submit the  ;

Updated FSAR on or before May 26, 1991.

Amendment 62 (Reference (d)) was then submitted on June 30, 1989.

In Reference (e), the NRC performed a safety evaluation on the revisions contained in Amendment 62 and concluded that they were acceptable. i New Hampshire Yankee will submit the next of these FSAR amendments {

(Amendment 63) on or before March 15, 1990.

{

New Hampshire Yankee feels that it is prudent to submit Amendment 63 after issuance of a full power operating license so that the'FSAR reflects the latest plant procedures and technical specifications and that any requirements accompanying the licenso and any changes necessitated by the '

Power Ascension Test Program are appropriately included.
