==Dear Sir or Madam:==
In the referenced document, Energy Northwest requested approval of a license amendment request to revise the Columbia Generating Station Technical Specifications to reflect improvements in the Average Power Range Monitor (APRM) / Rod Block Monitor (RBM) Technical Specifications (ARTS) and expand the facility operating domain to reflect operations using the Maximum Extended Load Line Limit Analysis (MELLLA).
 
These improvements coincide with the installation of the digital General Electric-Hitachi (GEH) Nuclear Measurement Analysis and Control (NUMAC) Power Range Neutron Monitoring (PRNM) System.This letter contains revisions to four documents previously submitted.
