NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. 50-387 and 50-388]
Pennsylvania Power and Light Company; Notice of Issuance of
Amendment to Facility Operating License
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (Commission) has issued
Amendment No. 179 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-14 and
Amendment No. 152 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-22 issued to
Pennsylvania Power and Light Company (the licensee), which revised the
Facility Operating Licenses for operation of the Susquehanna Steam
Electric Station, Units 1 and 2, located in Luzerne County,
Pennsylvania. The amendments are effective as of date of issuance.
The amendments authorize changes to the Final Safety Analysis
Report to incorporate the increases in the main steam line radiation
monitor setpoint and allowable values and the change to the design
basis of the offgas system to a detonation resistant design.
The application for the amendments complies with the standards and
requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act),
and the Commission's rules and regulations. The Commission has made
appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Commission's rules
and regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in the license
amendments.
A notice was published in the Federal Register on May 20,1998 (63
FR 27764). No request for a hearing or petition for leave to intervene
was filed following this notice.
The Commission has prepared an Environmental Assessment related to
the action and has determined not to prepare an environmental impact
statement. Based upon the environmental assessment, the Commission has
concluded that the issuance of the amendment will not have a
significant effect on the quality of the human environment (63 FR
54738).
