Syracuse, Hew York 13202 Gentlemen:
RE: NINE NILE POINT NUCLEAR STATION UNIT NO. 1 On November 29, 1976, the Commission published in the Federal Register, (copy enclosed) an amended Section 20.103 of 10 CFR 20, which became effective on December 29, 1976. One effect of this revision is that in order to receive credit for limiting the inhalation of airborne radioactive material, respiratory protective equipment must be used as stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15. Another requirement of the amended regulation is that licensees authorized to make allowance for use of respiratory protective equipment prior to December 29, 1976, must bring the use of their respiratory protective equipment into conformance with Regulatory Guide 8.15 by December 29, 1977.
Because the respiratory protective program described in Section 6.12 of your facility Technical Specifications differs from that stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15, the effect of this change in the regulations is to require amendment of your Technical Specifications. In view of the provisions of Section 6.11 of your Technical Specifications, which require conformance with 10 Ct R 20, the fact that Section 20.103 no longer requir es specific authorization to emiploy respiratory protective equipment,, and the revocation provisions of subsection 6.12.3, we conclude that the necessary amendment to your facility's Technical Specifications can be effected by merely deleting Section this is to advise that pursuant to 10 CFR 20.103(c) 6.12.'ccordingly, you and (f), if you desire to receive credit for use of respiratory protective equipment at your facility after Oecember 28, 1977, such use must be as stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15 rather than as specified in your DPPICII~

0 QULH'ND RKGULAYlONS of (s zefated manual of respiratory pro-Cectfon against ra(hoacth c materials 9m n)so announced ln the notice of Proposed gule maldrig.
Interested persons were invited to sub-fnft written comments or suggestions for conslderat(on ln connection with the proposed amendments by October 7, 1974.
(Lnd the comment period was extended, Upon request. to November 6, 1974. In (zddltfon, copies of the draft guide and manual were provided iu response to re-.
~
Ciuests.
Licensing and rc)ated regulatory func-Cfons of the AEC were transferred to the NRC pursuant to section 201 of the En-ergy Reorgan)zat) on hct of 1974.
After consideration of the comments geceived and other considerations, the Suc) car Regulatory Commission has .
Odopted the proposed amendments to Part 20 published for comment, with cer-Cain clarifying modifications and edito-changes. The more important changes, based largely on the comments gecelved, are summarized as foi)ows:
Since the limits on exposure to air-borne radioactive materials are now ex-pressed in terms of intake of such mate-,
ria's into the body. lt was suggested that reference be made in the regulation (5 20.103(a) (1) ) to some standardized bases for estimating intake. Accordingly, Cho effective rule includes a reference to (Ln NBC Regulatory Guide on acceptable
. concepts, models, equations and assump-Cfons for a bioas~ay program (Regulatory Qulde 8.9).
The intake limi~ for certain mixtures of uranium in soluble form (f 20.103(a)
(2) ) have been changed to conform with those adopted by the htomic Energy.
Commission on July 29, 1974 (35 FR 23990).
