Dear Sir or Madame:
Recently, the Nuclear Engineering Department and the Mechanical Engineering Department merged to form The Department of Mechanical Nuclear Engineering. With this merger, the Dimetor reports to the Chair, Nuclear Engineering Program.
In a separate organizauod change, the reporting chain for Assistant Vice President for Safety and Environmental Services was changed to Vice President for Physical Plant. The reporting chain for the Vice President of Physical Plant has changed due to the retirement of the Assistant Vice President for Safety and Environmental Services.
A copy of the proposed Technical Specifications change for T. S. 6.1.1 (pages 38 and 39)is attached.
Sincerely, M

' 5.4 Fuel Storage Soecifications L
- a. All fuel elements shall be stored in a geometrical array where the keff is less than 0.8 for all conditions of moderation.
l l b. Irradiated fuel elements shall be stored in an array which shall permit sufficient natural convection cooling by water such that the fuel element temperature shall l not reach the safety limit as defined in Section 2.1 of the Technical l Specifications.
l 5.5 Reactor Bay and Exhaust Systems i
Soecifications l' . a. The reactor shall be housed in a room (reactor bay) designed to restrict leakage. ,
The minimum free volume (total bay volume minus occupied volume) in the i reactor bay shall be 1900 m3
_ . b. The reactor bay shall be equipped with two exhaust systems. Under normal operating conditions, the facility exhaust system exhausts unfiltered reactor bay air to the environment releasing it at a point at least 24 feet above ground level. ,
Upon initiation of a building evacuation alarm, the previously mentioned system !
is automatically secured and an emergency exhaust system automatically starts. )
The emergency exhaust system is also designed to discharge reactor bay air at a l
. point at least 24 feet above ground level.
5.6 Reactor Pool Water Systems I Soecification The reactor core shall be cooled by natural convective water flow.
