By letter dated October 29, 1997 (Our ref:LR-N97557; NRC Ref TAC# M99888), Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) requested a revision to the Technical Specifications (TS) for Salem Generating Station Unit 2. The requested revision is a one time change to the Unit 2 Steam Generator inspection schedule.
By letter dated October 29, 1997 (Our ref:LR-N97557; NRC Ref TAC# M99888), Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) requested a revision to the Technical Specifications (TS) for Salem Generating Station Unit 2. The requested revision is a one time change to the Unit 2 Steam Generator inspection schedule.
On January 22, 1998, PSE&G and NRC personnel discussed the Salem Unit 2 primary to secondary leakage history. As a result of this telephone discussion, PSE&G was requested to include the information verbally discussed relative to the Salem 2 primary to secondary leakage history as a supplement to the original submittal.

Attachment 1 to this letter contains the requested information.
Attachment 1 to this letter contains the requested information.
Additionally, in the original submittal, PSE&G requested that the steam generator inspection be extended to within 24 months of Mode 2 for Unit 2 fuel cycle 10. NRC requested PSE&G to clarify this statement by the addition of the phrase "or the next scheduled refueling outage, whichever is first." Accordingly, PSE&G modifies Insert A of LR-N97557 to read "... inspection will be required to be performed within 24 months of Mode 2 (this would be by August 17, 1999), or during the next scheduled refueling outage, whichever is first for Unit 2 fuel cycle 1O."

SALEM GENERATING STATION UNIT 2 FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NOS. DPR-75 DOCKET NO. 50-311 Gentlemen:

By letter dated October 29, 1997 (Our ref:LR-N97557; NRC Ref TAC# M99888), Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) requested a revision to the Technical Specifications (TS) for Salem Generating Station Unit 2. The requested revision is a one time change to the Unit 2 Steam Generator inspection schedule.

On January 22, 1998, PSE&G and NRC personnel discussed the Salem Unit 2 primary to secondary leakage history. As a result of this telephone discussion, PSE&G was requested to include the information verbally discussed relative to the Salem 2 primary to secondary leakage history as a supplement to the original submittal. Attachment 1 to this letter contains the requested information.

Additionally, in the original submittal, PSE&G requested that the steam generator inspection be extended to within 24 months of Mode 2 for Unit 2 fuel cycle 10. NRC requested PSE&G to clarify this statement by the addition of the phrase "or the next scheduled refueling outage, whichever is first." Accordingly, PSE&G modifies Insert A of LR-N97557 to read "... inspection will be required to be performed within 24 months of Mode 2 (this would be by August 17, 1999), or during the next scheduled refueling outage, whichever is first for Unit 2 fuel cycle 1O."
