NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50-341]


Detroit Edison Co.; Notice of 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 Detroit Edison Company, (license) for an 
amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-43 issued to the 
licensee for operation of Fermi 2, located in Frenchtown Township, 
Monroe County, Michigan. Notice of Consideration of Issuance of this 
amendment was published in the Federal Register on August 18, 1993 (58 
FR 43925).
    The purpose of the licensee's amendment request was to revise the 
Technical Specifications (TS) to allow use of an updated laboratory 
testing standard for surveillance testing of representative charcoal 
samples from the control room emergency filtration system (CREFS) and 
the standby gas treatment system. Additionally, the CREFS ACTION 
STATEMENTS were to be revised to remove restrictions on CORE 
ALTERATIONS and handling of irradiated fuel in the secondary 
containment when the CREFS is inoperable under certain conditions.
    The NRC staff has concluded that the licensee's request cannot be 
fully granted. The licensee was notified of the Commission's denial of 
the proposed change by a letter dated March 31, 1995.
    By May 11, 1995, 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 John Flynn, Esq., Detroit Edison Company, 2000 Second 
Avenue, Detroit, Michigan 48266, attorney for the licensee.
    For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the 
application for amendment dated July 29, 1993, as supplemented October 
8, 1993, and (2) the Commission's letter to the licensee dated March 
31, 1995.
    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 Monroe County Library System, 3700 
South Custer Road, Monroe, Michigan 48161. A copy of item (2) may be 
obtained upon written request addressed to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission, Washington, DC 20555, Attention: Document Control Desk.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 31st day of March 1995.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
