NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50-331]

 

Iowa Electric Light & Power Co., et al.; Issuance of Amendment to 
Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has issued 
Amendment No. 195 to Facility Operating License No. DPR-49, issued to 
Iowa Electric Light and Power Company, Central Iowa Power Cooperative, 
and the Corn Belt Power Cooperative, which revised the Technical 
Specifications for operation of the Duane Arnold Energy Center located 
in Linn County, Iowa. The amendment was effective as of the date of 
issuance.
    The amendment revised Technical Specification 5.5 based on the 
limitations necessary to maintain stored fuel keff less than or 
equal to 0.95 for the reracking of the spent fuel pool. The revision 
also made some editorial changes and added two references. Page 3 of 
the Facility Operating License was revised to reflect the Updated Final 
Safety Analysis Report and the letter of March 23, 1993, requesting 
this amendment change.
    The application for the amendment complies with the standards and 
requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), 
and the Commission's regulations. The Commission has made appropriate 
findings as required by the Act and the Commission's regulations in 10 
CFR chapter I, which are set forth in the license amendment.
    Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment and Opportunity 
for Hearing in connection with this action was published in the Federal 
Register on July 30, 1993 (58 FR 40841). 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 this amendment will not have a 
significant effect on the quality of the human environment.
    For further details with respect to the action see (1) the 
application for amendment dated March 23, 1993, and supplemented 
September 12 and November 23, 1993, and January 10, 1994; (2) Amendment 
No. 195 to License No. DPR-49, (3) the Commission's related Safety 
Evaluation dated February 2, 1994, and (4) Environmental Assessment 
dated January 6, 1994 (59 FR 786). All of these items are available for 
public inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, Gelman 
Building, 2120 L Street NW., Washington, DC, and at the Cedar Rapids 
Public Library, 500 1st Street, SE., Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52401.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 2nd day of February 1994.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
