NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50-445 and 50-446]


TXU Electric; Notice of Issuance of Amendments to Facility 
Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) has 
issued Amendment No. 89 to Facility Operating License (FOL) No. NPF-87 
and Amendment No. 89 to FOL No. NPF-89 issued to TXU Electric (the 
licensee), which revised FOL Nos. NPF-87 and NPF-89 and the Technical 
Specifications for operation of the Comanche Peak Steam Electric 
Station (CPSES), Units 1 and 2, located in Somervell and Hood Counties, 
Texas. The amendments are effective as of the date of issuance.
    The amendments modified FOL Nos. NPF-87 and NPF-89 and the 
Technical Specifications to increase the maximum licensed thermal power 
of CPSES, Units 1 and 2, to 3458 MWt, which represents an increase of 
approximately 1.4 percent of the currently licensed thermal power for 
CPSES, Unit 1, and an increase of approximately 0.4 percent for CPSES, 
Unit 2. In addition, the amendments remove Texas Municipal Power Agency 
(TMPA) from both Unit 1 and Unit 2 FOLs since transfer of partial 
ownership from TMPA to TXU was completed.
    The application for the amendment, as supplemented, complies with 
the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 
amended (the Act), and the Commission's rules and regulations. The 
Commission has made appropriate findings as required by the Act and the 
Commission's rules and regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, which are set 
forth in the license amendment.
    Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment to Facility 
Operating License and Opportunity for a Hearing in connection with this 
action was

published in the Federal Register on May 29, 2001 (66 FR 29186). 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 the amendment will not have a 
significant effect on the quality of the human environment(66 FR 45065, 
dated August 27, 2001).
    For further details with respect to the action see (1) the 
licensee's application for amendment dated April 5, 2001, as 
supplemented by letters dated June 28, August 2, and September 10, 
2001; (2) Amendment No. 89 to FOL No. NPF-87 and Amendment No. 89 to 
FOL No. NPF-89; (3) the Commission's related Safety Evaluation; and (4)
