- With the requir.ementi3 of 10CFR50.55a and your August 13; 1976 le_tter. In addi-
- tion, Attacbriients II *and III to this letter are requests for relief, from spe-cific* provisions of the ASME code pursuant to lO*CFR 50, Section50.*55a(g)(6)(i),
in which it is impractical to meet the requirements.
As requested in you~ January 4, 1977.letter, a description bf our revised ISI *

Docket No 50-255 Request for Change to the Technical Specifications License DPR-20 For the reasons hereinafter set forth, it is requested that the Technical Specifications contained in Provisional Operating License DPR-20, Docket 50-255, issued to Consumers Power Company onOctober.16, 1972, be changed as described in Section I, below.
. \
I. Changes.
A. Change Sections 4.3, 1 4.8 and 4.9 in their entirety to read as pre-sented in Attachment I. (Changes are*noted by lines in the margin.)
- B. Change Table 4.2.2 in its entirety to read as pres~nted in Attach-ment I. (Changes are noted by lines in the margin.)
- c. Delete Table 4.3.l*in its entirety.
II. Discussion
- The development of these changes are based on the requirements to conform the Technical Specifications to lOCFR Part 50, Section 50.55a.
III. Conclusions Based on the foregoing, the Palisade.s Plant Review Com¢. ttee has .concluded that this change does not involve an unreviewed safety question.
