    NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
    [Docket No. 50-368]
    
    
    Entergy Operations, Inc.; Partial Denial of Amendment to Facility 
    Operating License and Opportunity for Hearing
    
        The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has 
    partially denied a request by Entergy Operations. Inc., (licensee) for 
    an amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-6 issued to the 
    licensee for operation of the Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 2, located in 
    Pope County, Arkansas. Notice of Consideration of Issuance of this 
    amendment was published in the Federal Register on September 1, 1993 
    (58 FR 46230).
        The purpose of the licensee's amendment request was to revise the 
    Technical Specifications (TSs) to remove the cycle-specific variables 
    from the TSs and control them under a new document called the Core 
    Operating Limits Report (COLR), in accordance with Generic Letter (GL) 
    88-16. In addition, the proposed amendment would also revise the 
    definition of shutdown margin in TS 1.13.
        The NRC staff has concluded that the licensee's request concerning 
    the shutdown margin (SDM) definition, which is not related to GL 88-16, 
    is denied since it does not accurately define the starting point for 
    shutdown margin. The licensee was notified of the Commission's partial 
    denial of the proposed change by a letter dated * * *
        By May 27, 1994, the licensee may demand a hearing with respect to 
    the partial 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 20555 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 Nicholas S. Reynolds, Esquire, Winston and Strawn, 1400 L 
    Street NW., Washington, DC 20005-3502, attorney for the licensee.
        For further details with respect to this action, see: (1) The 
    application for amendment dated July 22, 1993, as supplemented by 
    letter dated October 20, 1993, and (2) the Commission's letter to the 
    licensee dated * * *
        These documents are available for public inspection at the 
    Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, 
    NW., Washington, DC 20555, and at the Tomlinson Library, Arkansas Tech 
    University, Russellville, Arkansas 72801. 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 20th day of April 1994.
    
        For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
    William D. Beckner,
    Project Director, Project, Directorate IV-1, Division of Reactor 
    Projects--III/IV, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
