NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Tennessee Valley Authority; Denial of Amendment to Facility
Operating License and Opportunity for Hearing
[Docket Nos. 50-327 AND 50-328]
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has denied
a request by the Tennessee Valley Authority (licensee), for amendments
to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-77 and DPR-79 issued to the
licensee for operation of the Sequoyah Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2,
located in Soddy Daisy, Tennessee. Notice of Consideration of Issuance
of this amendment was published in the Federal Register on February 2,
1994 (59 FR 4948).
The purpose of the licensee's amendment request was to revise the
Technical Specifications to delete License Condition 2.H from the
Operating License. This license condition requires that violations of
certain specified license conditions be reported to the NRC Regional
Office.
The NRC staff has concluded that the licensee's request cannot be
granted because inadequate technical justification has been provided.
The licensee was notified of the Commission's denial of the proposed
change by a letter dated March 3, 1994.
By April 11, 1994, the licensee may demand a hearing with respect
to the denial described above. Any person whose interest may be
affected by this proceeding may file a written petition for leave to
intervene.
A request for hearing or petition for leave to intervene must be
filed with the Secretary of the Commission, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington, DC, 20555, Attention: Docketing and Services
Branch, or may be delivered to the Commission's Public Document Room,
the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC, by the above
date.
A copy of any petitions should also be sent to the Office of the
General Counsel, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC,
20555, and to the Office of the General Council, Tennessee Valley
Authority, 400 West Summit Hill Drive, ET 11H, Knoxville, Tennessee
37902, attorney for the licensee.
For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the
application for amendment dated November 18, 1993, and (2) the
Commission's letter to the licensee dated March 3, 1994.
These documents are available for public inspection at the
Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street,
NW., Washington, DC, and at the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Library,
1001 Broad Street, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37402. A copy of item (2) may
be obtained upon request addressed to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington DC, 20555, Attention: Document Control Desk.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 3rd day of March, 1994.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Frederick J. Hebdon,
Director, Project Directorate II-4, Division of Reactor Projects--I/II,
Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
