amendment is effective as of the date of issuance.
    This amendment consists of a change to the UFSAR in response to the 
request for amendment dated August 28, 1997, as supplemented by letters 
dated June 17, 1998, October 29, 1998, and February 11, 1999.
    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 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 21, 1998 (63 FR 
28008). 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 (64 FR 
17019).
