Amendment to Facility Operating License and Opportunity for Hearing
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has denied
a request by the Washington Public Power Supply System (the licensee)
for an amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-21 issued to the
licensee for operation of the Washington Nuclear Project No. 2, located
in Benton County, Washington.
The purpose of the licensee's amendment request was to revise the
operating license to permanently utilize the present reactor water
cleanup system design without postulation of a high-energy line break
at the terminal end of valve RWCU-FCV-33.
The NRC staff has concluded that the licensee's request cannot be
granted. The licensee was notified of the Commission's denial of the
proposed change by a letter dated July 7, 1994.
By August 12, 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 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 M.H. Philips, Jr., Esq., 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 December 3, 1993, and (2) the
Commission's letter to the licensee dated July 7, 1994.
These documents are available for public inspection at the

NW., Washington, DC 20555, and at the Richland Public Library, 955
Northgate Street, Richland, Washington 99352. 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.
