NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

Biweekly Notice; Applications and Amendments to Facility 
Operating Licenses Involving No Significant Hazards Considerations

I. Background

    Pursuant to Public Law 97-415, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission (the Commission or NRC staff) is publishing this regular 
biweekly notice. Public Law 97-415 revised section 189 of the Atomic 
Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), to require the Commission to 
publish notice of any amendments issued, or proposed to be issued, 
under a new provision of section 189 of the Act. This provision grants 
the Commission the authority to issue and make immediately effective 
any amendment to an operating license upon a determination by the 
Commission that such amendment involves no significant hazards 
consideration, notwithstanding the pendency before the Commission of a 
request for a hearing from any person.
    This biweekly notice includes all notices of amendments issued, or 
proposed to be issued from December 12, 1994, through January 5, 1995. 
The last biweekly notice was published on January 4, 1995 (60 FR 494).

Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendments to Facility Operating 
Licenses, Proposed no Significant Hazards Consideration Determination, 
and Opportunity for a Hearing

    The Commission has made a proposed determination that the following 
amendment requests involve no significant hazards consideration. Under 
the Commission's regulations in 10 CFR 50.92, this means that operation 
of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not (1) 
involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an 
accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new 
or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; 
or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. The basis 
for this proposed determination for each amendment request is shown 
below.
    The Commission is seeking public comments on this proposed 
determination. Any comments received within 30 days after the date of 
publication of this notice will be considered in making any final 
determination.
    Normally, the Commission will not issue the amendment until the 
expiration of the 30-day notice period. However, should circumstances 
change during the notice period such that failure to act in a timely 
way would [[Page 3670]] result, for example, in derating or shutdown of 
the facility, the Commission may issue the license amendment before the 
expiration of the 30-day notice period, provided that its final 
determination is that the amendment involves no significant hazards 
consideration. The final determination will consider all public and 
State comments received before action is taken. Should the Commission 
take this action, it will publish in the Federal Register a notice of 
issuance and provide for opportunity for a hearing after issuance. The 
Commission expects that the need to take this action will occur very 
infrequently.
    Written comments may be submitted by mail to the Rules Review and 
Directives Branch, Division of Freedom of Information and Publications 
Services, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 
Washington, DC 20555, and should cite the publication date and page 
number of this Federal Register notice. Written comments may also be 
delivered to Room 6D22, Two White Flint North, 11545 Rockville Pike, 
Rockville, Maryland from 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. Federal workdays. 
Copies of written comments received may be examined at the NRC Public 
Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC. 
The filing of requests for a hearing and petitions for leave to 
intervene is discussed below.
    By February 17, 1995, the licensee may file a request for a hearing 
with respect to issuance of the amendment to the subject facility 
operating license and any person whose interest may be affected by this 
proceeding and who wishes to participate as a party in the proceeding 
must file a written request for a hearing and a petition for leave to 
intervene. Requests for a hearing and a petition for leave to intervene 
shall be filed in accordance with the Commission's ``Rules of Practice 
for Domestic Licensing Proceedings'' in 10 CFR Part 2. Interested 
persons should consult a current copy of 10 CFR 2.714 which is 
available at the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman 
Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC and at the local public 
document room for the particular facility involved. If a request for a 
hearing or petition for leave to intervene is filed by the above date, 
the Commission or an Atomic Safety and Licensing Board, designated by 
the Commission or by the Chairman of the Atomic Safety and Licensing 
Board Panel, will rule on the request and/or petition; and the 
Secretary or the designated Atomic Safety and Licensing Board will 
issue a notice of a hearing or an appropriate order.
    As required by 10 CFR 2.714, a petition for leave to intervene 
shall set forth with particularity the interest of the petitioner in 
the proceeding, and how that interest may be affected by the results of 
the proceeding. The petition should specifically explain the reasons 
why intervention should be permitted with particular reference to the 
following factors: (1) the nature of the petitioner's right under the 
Act to be made a party to the proceeding; (2) the nature and extent of 
the petitioner's property, financial, or other interest in the 
proceeding; and (3) the possible effect of any order which may be 
entered in the proceeding on the petitioner's interest. The petition 
should also identify the specific aspect(s) of the subject matter of 
the proceeding as to which petitioner wishes to intervene. Any person 
who has filed a petition for leave to intervene or who has been 
admitted as a party may amend the petition without requesting leave of 
the Board up to 15 days prior to the first prehearing conference 
scheduled in the proceeding, but such an amended petition must satisfy 
the specificity requirements described above.
    Not later than 15 days prior to the first prehearing conference 
scheduled in the proceeding, a petitioner shall file a supplement to 
the petition to intervene which must include a list of the contentions 
which are sought to be litigated in the matter. Each contention must 
consist of a specific statement of the issue of law or fact to be 
raised or controverted. In addition, the petitioner shall provide a 
brief explanation of the bases of the contention and a concise 
statement of the alleged facts or expert opinion which support the 
contention and on which the petitioner intends to rely in proving the 
contention at the hearing. The petitioner must also provide references 
to those specific sources and documents of which the petitioner is 
aware and on which the petitioner intends to rely to establish those 
facts or expert opinion. Petitioner must provide sufficient information 
to show that a genuine dispute exists with the applicant on a material 
issue of law or fact. Contentions shall be limited to matters within 
the scope of the amendment under consideration. The contention must be 
one which, if proven, would entitle the petitioner to relief. A 
petitioner who fails to file such a supplement which satisfies these 
requirements with respect to at least one contention will not be 
permitted to participate as a party.
    Those permitted to intervene become parties to the proceeding, 
subject to any limitations in the order granting leave to intervene, 
and have the opportunity to participate fully in the conduct of the 
hearing, including the opportunity to present evidence and cross-
examine witnesses.
    If a hearing is requested, the Commission will make a final 
determination on the issue of no significant hazards consideration. The 
final determination will serve to decide when the hearing is held.
    If the final determination is that the amendment request involves 
no significant hazards consideration, the Commission may issue the 
amendment and make it immediately effective, notwithstanding the 
request for a hearing. Any hearing held would take place after issuance 
of the amendment.
    If the final determination is that the amendment request involves 
no significant hazards consideration, the Commission may issue the 
amendment and make it immediately effective, notwithstanding the 
request for a hearing. Any hearing held would take place after issuance 
of the amendment. If the final determination is that the amendment 
request involves a significant hazards consideration, any hearing held 
would take place before the issuance of any amendment.
    A request for a hearing or a 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. Where petitions are filed during the last 10 days of the notice 
period, it is requested that the petitioner promptly so inform the 
Commission by a toll-free telephone call to Western Union at 1-(800) 
248-5100 (in Missouri 1-(800) 342-6700). The Western Union operator 
should be given Datagram Identification Number N1023 and the following 
message addressed to (Project Director): petitioner's name and 
telephone number, date petition was mailed, plant name, and publication 
date and page number of this Federal Register notice. A copy of the 
petition should also be sent to the Office of the General Counsel, U.S. 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555, and to the 
attorney for the licensee.
    Nontimely filings of petitions for leave to intervene, amended 
petitions, supplemental petitions and/or requests for a hearing will 
not be entertained absent a determination by the Commission, the 
presiding officer or the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board that 
[[Page 3671]] the petition and/or request should be granted based upon 
a balancing of factors specified in 10 CFR 2.714(a)(1)(i)-(v) and 
2.714(d).
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment which is available for public inspection at 
the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L 
Street, NW., Washington, DC, and at the local public document room for

Boston Edison Company, Docket No. 50-293, Pilgrim Nuclear Power 
Station, Plymouth County, Massachusetts

    Date of amendment request: November 22, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment would 
revise the allowable leak rate for the main steam isolation valves 
(MSIVs) from the current 11.5 standard cubic feet per hour (scfh) for 
each valve, to a maximum combined main steam line leak rate of 46 scfh.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    1. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed Amendment will not involve a significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed amendment does not involve a change to structures, 
components, or systems which would affect the probability of an 
accident previously evaluated in the Pilgrim Updated Final Safety 
Analysis Report (UFSAR). The proposed amendment results in no change 
in radiological consequences of the design basis LOCA [loss-of-
coolant accident] as currently analyzed for Pilgrim Station. These 
analyses were calculated using the combined total leakage factor of 
46 scfh for determining acceptance to the regulatory limits for the 
offsite, control room, and Technical Support Center (TSC) doses as 
contained in 10CFR100 and 10CFR50, Appendix A, GDC 19. The proposed 
change does not compromise existing radiological equipment 
qualification, since the combined total leakage rate of 46 scfh has 
been factored into our existing equipment qualification analyses for 
10 CFR 50.49.
    2. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
    There is no modification to the MSIVs or other plant system or 
structure associated with this amendment which could impact their 
capability to perform their design function. The total MSIV leakage 
rate of 46 scfh is included in the current radiological analyses for 
the assessment of dose exposure following an accident. This proposal 
changes the allowable leakage rate from a per valve to a total 
combined line leakage acceptance criteria but does not change the 
cumulative allowable value. Therefore, the proposed change does not 
create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from 
any accident previously analyzed.
    3. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed amendment will not involve a significant reduction in a 
margin of safety.
    The allowable leak rate limit specified for the MSIVs is used to 
quantify the maximum amount of bypass leakage assumed in the LOCA 
radiological analysis. Results of the analysis are evaluated against 
the dose guidelines contained in GDC [General Design Criteria] 19 
and 10CFR100. The margin of safety in this context is considered to 
be the difference between the calculated dose exposures and the 
guidelines provided by the GDC 19 and 10CFR100. Therefore, since the 
maximum allowable leakage for each valve was assumed and used as the 
total allowable leakage for the purpose of calculating potential 
dose, the margin of safety is not affected because the dose levels 
remain the same.

    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Boston Edison Company, Docket No. 50-293, Pilgrim Nuclear Power 
Station, Plymouth County, Massachusetts

    Date of amendment request: November 22, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment would 
revise the mode conditions under which the Scram Discharge Instrument 
Volume-Scram Trip Bypass in Table 3.2.C.1 is required to be operable 
and changes the associated functional test frequency from quarterly to 
once per operating cycle in Table 4.2.C.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    1. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed amendment will not involve a significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed change to Table 3.2.C.1, and the associated change 
to Table 4.2.C, removes incorrect reactor modes listed for the Scram 
Discharge Instrument Volume (SDIV)--Scram Trip Bypass function. The 
Pilgrim control rod block logic for the SDIV Bypass is not operable 
nor is it required by design when in the Run and Startup modes. The 
control logic and the FSAR [Final Safety Analysis Report] (section 
7.2.3.10) specifies SDIV--Scram Trip Bypass operability only in the 
Refuel and Shutdown modes.
    This change will not result in any physical modification or 
operation of the control rod block system. The change conforms the 
technical specifications to the actual design of the SDIV Scram Trip 
Bypass as described in the FSAR. Changing the functional 
surveillance frequency from quarterly to once per operating cycle 
also conforms the technical specifications to the applicable mode 
for the function.
    The change is classified as an administrative change because it 
corrects an administrative requirement that does not reflect the 
logic design. It improves safety by removing the need to install 
jumpers during reactor operations to perform unnecessary and 
potentially risky functional surveillances.
    Therefore, because this is an administrative change, operation 
of Pilgrim will not involve a significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    2. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
    This proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated 
because it is administrative and requires no physical alteration of 
the plant configuration, changes to setpoints, or operating 
parameters.
    3. The operation of Pilgrim in accordance with the proposed 
amendment will not involve a significant reduction in a margin of 
safety.
    The proposed change serves to enhance the margin of safety by 
eliminating the potential for error caused by installing jumpers to 
the control logic during reactor operation. Changing the functional 
surveillance frequency from quarterly to once per operating cycle 
also enhances the margin of safety by allowing test performance off-
line, the mode for which the SDIV scram trip bypass control rod 
blocks are designed to be operable.

    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Boston Edison Company, Docket No. 50-293, Pilgrim Nuclear Power 
Station, Plymouth County, Massachusetts

    Date of amendment request: November 22, 1994
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment would 
revise the suppression chamber water level operating range, increasing 
it 2 inches, and revise the water level recorder range.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    1. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed amendment will not involve a significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously identified.
    The probability of an accident is not increased by this proposed 
change because there is no relation between the Suppression Chamber 
water level operating range and the probability of an accident.
    The consequences of an accident identified are not increased. 
The Suppression Chamber is an accident mitigating device. Increasing 
the water level operating range has been analyzed and does not 
significantly increase the structural loads and the calculated 
stress levels remain within Mark 1 Acceptance Criteria.
    We have reviewed the FSAR [Final Safety Analysis Report] 
Containment Analyses and concluded that the safety margin is not 
affected. An increase in water level enhances the Suppression Pool's 
ability to mitigate an accident by providing more water for use by 
emergency cooling systems. The higher water level increases the sink 
capabilities resulting in lower torus water temperatures from steam 
blowdowns. There is a minor reduction in the free air volume of the 
torus which has a negligible effect on containment post accident 
pressures. Therefore, there is no significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously identified.
    The change in water level recorder range does not involve an 
increase in the probability or consequence of an accident because 
the new recording range accounts for instrument loop uncertainties 
and is thus more conservative than the previous range.
    2. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any accident previously analyzed.
    An increase in the Suppression Chamber water level operating 
range does not create a new or different kind of accident from any 
accident previously analyzed because the Suppression Chamber is an 
accident mitigating device. The Suppression Chamber serves as the 
heat sink for any postulated transient or accident condition when 
the primary heat sink (main condenser) is unavailable and as a 
source of water for the Core Standby Cooling Systems. The structural 
affects of the increase in water volume have been analyzed and do 
not significantly effect the Mark 1 containment loads.
    Revising the water level recording range is more conservative 
than that previously used and does not create the possibility of a 
new or different kind of accident.
    3. The operation of Pilgrim Station in accordance with the 
proposed amendment will not involve a significant reduction in the 
margin of safety.
    Operation with an increased Torus water level does not affect 
the structure and attached piping of the Pilgrim Suppression Chamber 
and does not significantly affect the calculated stress levels; 
therefore, there is no significant reduction in the margin of 
safety.
    The change in the water level recording range is due to 
replacing the transmitter with a smaller span. The change from 0 to 
32 inches to -7 to +7 inches enhances resolution and accuracy of the 
water level instrument loop.

    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Entergy Operations, Inc., Docket Nos. 50-313, Arkansas Nuclear One, 
Unit No. 1, Pope County, Arkansas

    Date of amendment request: August 30, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment relocates 
refueling cycle specific parameters from the technical specifications 
to the Core Operating Limits Report as per recommendations promulgated 
by NRC Generic Letter 88-16. Additionally, the amendment adds a 24 hour 
limit on operations when only one reactor coolant pump is operating in 
each loop. Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    Criterion 1--Does Not Involve a Significant Increase in the 
Probability or Consequences of an Accident Previously Evaluated.
    The relocation of cycle-specific variables from the Technical 
Specifications to the Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) is 
considered to be administrative in nature and has no impact on plant 
operation or safety. The Technical Specifications will continue to 
require operation within the core operational limits for each cycle 
reload as calculated by the NRC approved reload methodologies. The 
values and setpoints placed in the COLR are addressed in the reload 
report for each particular fuel cycle. The reload report presents 
the results of evaluations of accidents addressed in the ANO-1 
Safety Analysis Report. These evaluations demonstrate that changes 
in the fuel cycle design and the corresponding COLR do not involve a 
significant increase in the probability or consequences of an 
accident previously evaluated.
    The revision of Specification 3.1.1.1.a and addition of the 
footnote to Table 2.3-1 result in additional restrictions on 
operation with one reactor coolant pump in each loop with the 
reactor critical. This more restrictive specification limits 
operation with one reactor coolant pump in each loop to a 24 hour 
period when the reactor is critical. This change incorporates a more 
restrictive control and does not affect any previously analyzed 
event.
    Therefore, this change does not involve a significant increase 
in the probability or consequences of any accident previously.
    Criterion 2--Does Not Create the Possibility of a New or 
Different Kind of Accident from any Previously Evaluated.
    This relocation of cycle-specific variables from the Technical 
Specifications to the COLR does not create the possibility of a new 
or different kind of accident from any previously analyzed. The 
cycle-specific variables will continue to be calculated using NRC 
approved methodologies. Technical Specifications will continue to 
require operation within the required core operating limits and 
appropriate actions will be taken if the limits are exceeded. 
Because plant operation continues to be limited in accordance with 
the values of cycle-specific parameter limits that are established 
using NRC approved methodologies, the relocations included in this 
submittal are considered to be administrative in nature and have no 
impact on plant safety as a consequence.
    The revision of Specification 3.1.1.1.a and addition of the 
footnote to Table 2.3-1 result in additional restrictions on 
operation with one reactor coolant pump in each loop with the 
reactor critical. This more restrictive specification limits 
operation with one reactor coolant pump in each loop to a 24 hour 
period when the reactor is critical. This proposed change introduces 
no new mode of plant operation.
    Therefore, this change does not create the possibility of a new 
or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.
    Criterion 3--Does Not Involve a Significant Reduction in the 
Margin of Safety. [[Page 3673]] 
    The proposed relocations are considered to be administrative in 
nature and do not involve a significant reduction in the margin of 
safety since they only involve transferring limits from the 
Technical Specifications to the COLR. The values and setpoints 
placed in the COLR are addressed in the reload report for each 
particular fuel cycle. The development of limits for future reloads 
will continue to conform to methodologies described in NRC approved 
documentation. Each future reload involves a 10CFR50.59 safety 
review to assure that operation of the unit within the cycle-
specific limits will not involve a significant reduction in the 
margin of safety.
    The revision of Specification 3.1.1.1.a and addition of the 
footnote to Table 2.3-1 result in additional restrictions on 
operation with one reactor coolant pump in each loop with the 
reactor critical. This more restrictive specification limits 
operation with one reactor coolant pump in each loop to a 24 hour 
period when the reactor is critical. This change does not involve a 
significant reduction in the margin of safety, rather, it 
constitutes an additional limitation not previously included in the 
Technical Specifications.

    Therefore, this change does not involve a significant reduction in 
the margin of safety.
    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Entergy Operations, Inc., et al., Docket No. 50-416, Grand Gulf Nuclear 
Station, Unit 1, Claiborne County, Mississippi

    Date of amendment request: November 9, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment revises 
those specifications associated with various engineered safety feature 
systems following a design basis fuel handling accident. The proposed 
changes affect conditions where irradiated fuel is handled in the 
primary or secondary containment and when fuel is handled over the 
reactor vessel with fuel in the vessel. These changes are based on a 
recent re-analysis of the fuel handling accident for Grand Gulf Nuclear 
Station (GGNS).
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    1. The proposed changes do not significantly increase the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed definition of RECENTLY IRRADIATED fuel is used to 
establish operational conditions where specific activities represent 
situations where significant radioactive releases can be postulated. 
These operational conditions are consistent with the design basis 
analysis. Because the equipment affected by the revised operational 
conditions is not considered an initiator to any previously analyzed 
accident, inoperability of the equipment cannot increase the 
probability of any previously evaluated accident. The proposed 
applicability in conjunction with existing administrative controls 
on light loads, bounds the conditions of the current design basis 
fuel handling accident analysis which concludes that the 
radiological consequences are within the acceptance criteria of 
NUREG 0800, Section 15.7.4 and General Design Criteria 19. 
Therefore, the proposed changes do not significantly increase the 
probability or consequences of any previously evaluated accident.
    Based on the above, the proposed changes do not significantly 
increase the probability or consequences of any accident previously 
evaluated.
    2. The proposed changes would not create the possibility of a 
new or different kind of accident from any previous analyzed.
    The proposed definition is used to establish operational 
conditions where specific activities represent situations where 
significant radioactive releases can be postulated. These 
operational conditions are consistent with the design basis 
analysis. The proposed changes do not introduce any new modes of 
plant operation and do not involve physical modifications to the 
plant. Therefore, the proposed changes do not create the possibility 
of a new or different kind of accident from any previous analyzed.
    Therefore, the proposed changes do not create the possibility of 
a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously 
analyzed.
    3. The proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction 
in a margin of safety.
    The revised definition is used to establish operational 
conditions where specific activities represent situations where 
significant radioactive releases can be postulated. These 
operational conditions are consistent with the design basis analysis 
and are established such that the radiological consequences are at 
or below the current GGNS licensing limit. Safety margins and 
analytical conservatisms have been evaluated and are well 
understood. Substantial margins are retained to ensure that the 
analysis adequately bounds all postulated event scenarios. The 
proposed change only eliminates the excess margin from the analysis. 
The current margin of safety is retained.
    Specifically, the margin of safety for the fuel handling 
accident is the difference between the 10 CFR 100 limits and the 
licensing limit defined by NUREG 0800, Section 15.7.4. With respect 
to the control room personnel doses, the margin of safety is the 
difference between the 10 CFR 100 limits and the licensing limit 
defined by 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, Criterion 19 (GDC 19). Excess 
margin is the difference between the postulated doses and the 
corresponding licensing limit.
    The proposed applicability continues to ensure that the whole-
body and thyroid doses at the exclusion area and low population zone 
boundaries as well as control room, doses are at or below the 
corresponding licensing limit. The margin of safety is unchanged; 
therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant

Maine Yankee Atomic Power Company, Docket No. 50-309, Maine Yankee 
Atomic Power Station, Lincoln County, Maine

    Date of amendment request: December 6, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment would 
revise the Technical Specifications to allow the use of the Combustion 
Engineering sleeving process for repairing steam generator tubes. (The 
current requirement specifies that degraded steam generator tubes be 
repaired by plugging.)
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration. The NRC has reviewed the licensee's analysis against the 
standard of 10 CFR 59.92(c). The staff's review is presented below:
    1. The proposed amendment would not involve a significant increase 
in the [[Page 3674]] probability or consequences of an accident 
previously evaluated.
    With the sleeve dimensions, materials, and connecting joints 
designed to the applicable American Society of Mechanical Engineers 
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (ASME Code), the proposed sleeving 
repair becomes an in-kind substitution for the steam generator tube 
being repaired. The design criteria for the sleeves conform to the 
stress limits and safety margins of Code Section III. Safety factors of 
3 (normal operation) and 1.5 (accident conditions) were applied to the 
sleeve design. Mechanical testing using Code stress allowables also has 
been performed in support of the sleeve design. Based on the results of 
vendor test and analysis programs, the sleeves fulfill their intended 
function as leak tight structural members and meet or exceed all design 
criteria.
    Evaluation of the steam generator tubes and proposed sleeves 
indicates no detrimental effects on the sleeve or sleeve-tube assembly 
from reactor coolant system flow, reactor or steam generator coolant 
chemistry, or thermal or pressure conditions (including transients) 
that may be experienced by the Maine Yankee plant. Corrosion testing of 
sleeve-tube assemblies indicates no evidence of sleeve or steam 
generator tube corrosion considered detrimental under anticipated 
service conditions.
    Installation of the proposed sleeves will be controlled via 
Combustion Engineering's proprietary equipment and process. The process 
has been used 24 separate times since 1984 to install approximately 
4100 steam generator sleeves in nuclear facilities worldwide. The Maine 
Yankee steam generator design has been reviewed and found compatible 
with the sleeve installation equipment and process. Installation of the 
proposed sleeves will have no significant effect on either plant 
configuration or operation.
    The licensee therefore concludes that implementation of the 
proposed change will not involve a significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    2. The proposed amendment would not create the possibility of a new 
or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
    As discussed above, the structural integrity, thermal 
characteristics, and material properties of the proposed sleeves are 
compatible with Maine Yankee's steam generators. Therefore, the 
functions of the steam generators will not be significantly affected by 
installation of the proposed sleeves. In addition, the proposed sleeves 
do not interact with any other plant systems. Finally, the continued 
integrity of installed sleeves is periodically verified by the steam 
generator inspections required by plant Technical Specifications.
    The licensee therefore concludes that implementation of the 
proposed change will not create a new or different kind of accident 
from any accident previously evaluated.
    3. The proposed amendment would not involve a significant reduction 
in a margin of safety.
    Repair of degraded steam generator tubes via the use of the 
proposed sleeves has been confirmed to restore the structural integrity 
of faulted tubes under normal operating and postulated accident 
conditions. The design safety factors used for the sleeves are 
consistent with ASME Code safety factors required in the design of 
Maine Yankee's steam generators. The repair limit for the proposed 
sleeves is consistent with that established for Maine Yankee's steam 
generators. The design of the sleeve-to-tube joint has been verified by 
testing to preclude significant leakage during normal and postulated 
accident conditions. Use of the previously identified design safety 
factors design verification testing assures that margin to safety with 
respect to installation of the proposed sleeves is not significantly 
different from the original steam generator tubes.
    The licensee therefore concludes that implementation of the 
proposed change would not involve a significant reduction in a margin 
of safety.
    Based on this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 
50.92(c) are satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine 
that the amendment request involves no significant hazards 
consideration.

Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, Docket No. 50-220, Nine Mile Point 
Nuclear Station Unit No. 1, Oswego County, New York

    Date of amendment request: December 23, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment would 
revise Technical Specifications (TSs) 2.1.2, ``Fuel Cladding 
Integrity,'' 3.6.2/4.6.2, ``Protective Instrumentation,'' and 
associated Bases to extend the calibration frequency of the reactor 
recirculation flow transmitters from once per quarter to once per 
operating cycle and for the square rooters and summers from once per 
quarter to once per year. The proposed amendment would revise the flow 
biased average power range monitor (APRM) scram and rod block, 
recirculation flow comparator, and flow unit upscale setpoints and the 
associated Bases of TSs 2.1.2, 2.2.2, and 3.6.2/4.6.2.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    The operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 1, in accordance with the 
proposed amendment, will not involve a significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed changes extend the calibration interval for the 
recirculation flow square rooters, summers and transmitters and 
revise the setpoints for the recirculation flow upscale and 
comparator rod block trips. The associated analytical limits for 
APRM flow biased scram and rod block increase by 2% and 8% 
respectively. Setpoints are for plant protective functions (i.e., 
scram and rod block) which respond to an accident or transient. The 
scram and rod block function responds to mitigate the consequences 
of an accident or transient. Therefore, a change to the setpoints 
cannot increase the probability of these accidents or transients. 
Likewise, changes to surveillance intervals for the protective 
functions which respond to an accident or transient cannot increase 
the probability. In fact, the proposed increase in the surveillance 
intervals reduce the probability of an inadvertent scram by reducing 
the duration that the plant is in the one-half scram condition.
    The new surveillance intervals, setpoints and allowable setpoint 
deviations are calculated using the approved GE [General Electric 
Company] setpoint methodology documented in NEDC-31336. The 
methodology in NEDC-31336 provides assurance that safety system 
actuation (i.e., reactor scram or control rod withdrawal block) will 
occur prior to the associated system parameters (neutron flux and 
recirculation flow) exceeding their analytical limits. Based upon 
re-evaluation of NMP1 [Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit No. 1] 
accidents and transients, it has been shown that the fuel thermal 
limits are not significantly impacted. Therefore, the consequences 
of an accident or transient has not significantly increased.
    Thus, plant response to previously analyzed accidents remains 
within previously determined limits. Therefore, the operation of 
Nine Mile Point Unit 1, in accordance with the proposed amendment, 
will not involve a significant increase in the probability or 
consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
[[Page 3675]]

    The operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 1, in accordance with the 
proposed amendment, will not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed changes to extend the calibration frequency do not 
represent a physical change to the plant as described in the NMP1 
Final Safety Analysis Report (Updated). However, this change results 
in increasing the analytical limits for the APRM flow based scram 
and rod block by 2% and 8% respectively. The proposed changes do not 
alter the plant configuration and the initial conditions used for 
the design basis accident analysis are still valid. Thus, no 
potential initiating events are created which would cause any new or 
different kinds of accidents. As such, the plant initial conditions 
utilized for the design basis accident analysis are still valid. 
Therefore, operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 in accordance with 
the proposed change will not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any previously assessed.
    The operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 1, in accordance with the 
proposed amendment, will not involve a significant reduction in a 
margin of safety.
    The analytical limits for the APRM flow biased scram and rod 
block increase by 2% and 8% respectively. The trip units in the APRM 
and recirculation flow instrumentation systems will continue to be 
calibrated every three months. In addition, the entire APRM and 
recirculation flow instrumentation systems will still be subject to 
Instrument Channel Tests every three months. These tests, together 
with the calibration of the flow square rooters and summers once per 
year and the flow transmitters once per operating cycle, will assure 
that system reliability and availability are maintained at their 
current levels. Reanalysis of the design basis transients was 
performed utilizing these new values. The results showed that the 
increase had an insignificant effect on the consequences of these 
events. Therefore, the proposed amendment will not involve a 
significant reduction in the margin of safety.


    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, Docket No. 50-410, Nine Mile Point 
Nuclear Station, Unit 2, Oswego County, New York

    Date of amendment request: December 13, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment would 
revise Technical Specification Table 3.6.1.2-1, ``Allowable Leak Rates 
Through Valves in Potential Bypass Leakage Paths,'' to increase the 
maximum allowable leakage rate of each of the eight main steamline 
isolation valves from 6.0 scfh to 24.0 scfh.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:


    The operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 2, in accordance with the 
proposed amendment, will not involve a significant increase in the 
probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed changes to Technical Specification Table 3.6.1.2-1 
would allow a maximum leakage of 24.0 scfh for each of the eight 
MSIVs [main steamline isolation valves]. The current Technical 
Specifications allow a maximum leakage for an MSIV of 6.0 scfh.
    Closure of one or more of the MSIVs at rated power is a pressure 
transient for the reactor coolant pressure boundary. This pressure 
transient is evaluated in Section 15.2.4 of the USAR [Updated Safety 
Analysis Report]. Closure of MSIV(s), as analyzed in the USAR, could 
occur due to manual or automatic actions. A change to the leakage 
limit for the MSIVs does not affect either the manual or automatic 
actions that would close the MSIVs. Therefore, the proposed change 
to the table cannot affect the probability of the closure of one or 
more MSIVs at rated power.
    The radiological evaluation of the DBA-LOCA [Design Basis 
Accident--Loss-of-Coolant Accident] incorporates a maximum leakage 
of 24.0 scfh for each of the four main steam lines. In addition, the 
revised radiological evaluation includes the impact of the proposed 
license amendment currently under review by the Staff which would 
increase the rated operation of NMP2 from 3323 to 3467 megawatts 
thermal (see NMPC letter dated July 22, 1993 to the NRC). The 
revised radiological evaluation also includes the impact of License 
Amendment No. 56 (see NMPC letter dated July 1, 1994 to the NRC and 
License Amendment No. 56, dated August 30, 1994).
    The new doses from the revised radiological analysis for a DBA-
LOCA, as shown in Table 1 [of December 13, 1994, amendment request], 
continue to remain below 10 CFR [Part] 100 guideline values and GDC 
[General Design Criterion] 19 limits. The impact of the increased 
MSIV leakage on vital area access and equipment qualification is 
minimal and acceptable. Therefore, operation with the proposed 
change to the Technical Specifications will not significantly 
increase the consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 2, in accordance with the 
proposed amendment, will not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
    The safety function of the MSIVs is to isolate the main steam 
lines in a timely manner to preclude the uncontrolled leakage of 
radioactive steam. This is accomplished by providing the MSIVs with 
the capability of rapidly closing automatically in response to 
various plant conditions. The increase in the leakage limit for the 
MSIVs from 6.0 scfh to 24.0 scfh will not inhibit the MSIVs' 
isolation function. Therefore, operation with the proposed increase 
in the MSIV leakage will not create the possibility of a new or 
different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
    The operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 2, in accordance with the 
proposed amendment, will not involve a significant reduction in a 
margin of safety.
    The revised radiological analysis follows the very conservative 
fuel failure and instantaneous release assumptions of RG [Regulatory 
Guide] 1.3, with the exception of regulatory position C.1.f as 
permitted by SRP [Standard Review Plan] Section 6.5.5, ``Pressure 
Suppression Pool as a Fission Product Cleanup.'' The Staff approved 
the use of SRP Section 6.5.5. as part of the licensing basis of NMP2 
in License Amendment No. 56.
    The revised radiological analysis incorporates the maximum 
allowable leakage limit of 24.0 scfh for each of the four main steam 
lines. The revised radiological analysis also includes the impacts 
of the proposed power uprate of NMP2 and License Amendment No. 56. 
The new doses from the revised radiological analysis remain below 
the Staff acceptance criteria of 10 CFR [Part] 100 guideline values 
and GDC 19 (see Table 1 [of December 13, 1994, amendment request]). 
Therefore, operation with the proposed changes to the Technical 
Specifications will not significantly reduce a margin of safety.
    Accordingly, as determined by the analysis above, this proposed 
amendment involves no significant hazards consideration.


    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

    Description of amendment request: The proposed changes would delete 
a footnote in the Technical Specifications (TS) regarding snubber 
functional testing frequency and make permanent the current one-time 
snubber functional test frequency of 24 months.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    (1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase 
in the probability or consequences of an accident previously 
evaluated, because the probability of a seismic or other dynamic 
event is independent of the surveillance period for snubber tests. 
The change does not introduce any failure mechanisms to the 
previously considered events. The consequences of an accident 
previously evaluated in the SAR [Safety Analysis Report] is not 
increased by the proposed revision to [t]he snubber TS. No physical 
changes are being made to the plant. The snubbers' role in 
mitigating the consequences of an accident is to provide restraint 
during seismic or other dynamic events while permitting the slow 
movement of piping and components during heatup and cooldown. The 
proposed TS change will not affect the snubbers ability to continue 
to perform this role for the following reasons: (1) Changing the 
inspection cycle to 24 months will not reduce the ability of the 
functional testing to confirm the operability of the snubber 
population. The original interval of 18 months was selected to 
accommodate the need to test snubbers that were inaccessible during 
normal operation. Since snubbers do not require preventative 
maintenance during the operating cycle, the additional time added by 
a 24 month operating cycle has minimal impact, if any, on snubber 
operability. (2) The requirement to monitor service life remains 
part of TS. The review of snubber service life records is a 
documentation review of the snubbers service life. If a snubber's 
service life would expire prior to the next scheduled review then 
the snubber is reconditioned, replaced or reevaluated to extend its 
service life. (3) Snubber functional testing has shown no failure 
mechanism which would be aggravated by an extension of the test 
interval to 24 months. A historical search of completed snubber 
functional STs was completed. The historical search indicated that 
even though the snubbers did not always meet the initial screening 
functional test criteria of the ST, the piping system was operable 
based on an engineering evaluation and there was no evidence of a 
time dependent failure mechanism. To ensure the snubber remains 
operational during the next operating cycle, snubbers not meeting 
the screening ST acceptance criteria are either replaced or 
reconditioned.
    (2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new 
or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated because 
the proposed change does not involve operational procedure or 
physical changes to the plant. Since snubbers will continue to meet 
their design basis of protecting the piping and equipment during 
dynamic events, the possibility of a different type of accident will 
not be created.
    (3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction 
in a margin of safety. There may be a slight increase, if any, in 
the possibility of undetected snubber failures because of the 
increase in the interval of functional testing for snubbers; 
however, the historical data of previous snubber functional 
surveillance testing and the supporting engineering evaluations 
indicate that on those occasions where snubbers did not meet initial 
surveillance testing requirements, the piping systems were all 
operable. Therefore, the probability of occurrence of a malfunction 
of equipment is minimal and equipment important to safety (ITS) that 
use snubbers will continue to meet design requirements and the 
margin of safety will be unaffected.

    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Public Service Electric & Gas Company, Docket No. 50-354, Hope Creek

    Date of amendment request: September 29, 1994.
    Description of amendment request: This amendment requests revision 
of Table 4.3.6-1 ``Control Rod Block Instrumentation Surveillance 
Requirements.'' The channel calibration frequencies for the Source 
Range Monitor (SRM) and the Intermediate Range Monitor (IRM) would be 
changed as follows: the up-scale and the down-scale trip functions on 
each instrument would be changed from Note ``SA'', once-per-184 days to 
note ``R'', once-per-refuel interval.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    1. Will not involve a significant increase in the probability or 
consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed changes involve no hardware changes, no changes to 
the operation of any systems or components, and no changes to 
existing structures. The revision of channel calibration frequencies 
for the SRM and IRM trip function portion of the control rod block 
instrumentation represent changes that do not affect plant safety 
and do not alter existing accident analyses.
    2. Will not create the possibility of a new or different kind of 
accident from any previously evaluated.
    The proposed changes are procedural in nature concerning the 
calibration frequency of instrumentation that have historically 
shown little set point drift. The channel calibration methodology 
for the SRM and IRM control rod block trip functions remain 
unchanged. The proposed changes while slightly increasing the 
possibility of an undetected instrument error will not create a new 
or unevaluated accident or operating condition.
    3. Will not involve a significant reduction in a margin of 
safety.
    The proposed changes are in accordance with recommendations 
provided by the NRC regarding the improvement of Technical 
Specifications. These changes will result in the perpetuation of 
current safety margins while reducing regulatory burden and 
decreasing equipment degradation.

    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Wisconsin Public Service Corporation, Docket No. 50-305, Kewaunee 
Nuclear Power Plant, Kewaunee County, Wisconsin

    Date of amendment request: December 16, 1994. [[Page 3677]] 
    Description of amendment request: The proposed amendment would 
revise Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP) Technical Specification (TS) 
3.4 by removing the Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) for the 
Turbine Overspeed Protection System (TOPS). Tables TS 4.1-1 and TS 4.1-
3 would also be revised to remove the surveillance requirements for the 
TOPS instrumentation and turbine valves. The TOPS and related 
requirements would be relocated to the Updated Safety Analysis Report 
(USAR).
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration which is presented below:

    Significant Hazards Determination for Proposed Changes to TS 
3.4.c and Table TS 4.1-1 and Associated Bases Changes
    In accordance with 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.91 and using the 
standards provided in Section 50.92, the proposed change has been 
reviewed to determine that no significant hazards exist as a result 
of this change. The analysis showed:
    (1) The proposed amendment will not involve a significant 
increase in the probability or consequence of an accident previously 
evaluated.
    The purpose of the Turbine Overspeed Protection System (TOPS) is 
to prevent an overspeed event, which is a precursor to a potential 
turbine-generated missile. Neither Transient Analyses nor Design 
Basis Accidents (DBAs) evaluated in the accident analyses contained 
in Chapter 14 of the Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP) Updated 
Safety Analysis Report (USAR) assume operation of the TOPS. The 
calculations and probabilities associated with USAR section 14.2.7, 
``Turbine Missile Damage to the Spent Fuel Pool,'' are not affected 
by this amendment. This amendment does not implement physical 
changes to the plant and does not change the KNPP's existing 
requirements. As a result, this change will not increase the 
probability of a previously evaluated accident.
    The purpose of the TOPS is preventative and it serves no 
function to mitigate the consequences of any accident previously 
evaluated. Therefore, removing the requirements associated with the 
TOPS from the TSs will not affect the consequences of an accident 
previously evaluated.
    (2) The proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a 
new or different kind of accident from any accident previously 
evaluated.
    This amendment does not involve any changes in the operational 
characteristics of the surveillance tests and will impose no new 
requirements. This change will simply relocate the same testing 
requirements from the KNPP Technical Specifications to the KNPP 
USAR. Since this change is administrative in nature, it will not 
create a new or different kind of accident from any accident 
previously evaluated.
    (3) The proposed amendment will not involve a significant 
reduction in the margin of safety.
    KNPP's USAR section 14.2.7, ``Turbine Missile Damage to the 
Spent Fuel Pool,'' will not be affected by this amendment. 
Relocating the TOPS and related requirements is a change that is 
administrative in nature and does not alter the intent of any 
requirements. Therefore it can be concluded that this change will 
not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.
    Significant Hazards Determination for Proposed Change to Table 
TS 4.1-3 and associated Basis Change
    In accordance with 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.91 and using the 
standards provided in Section 50.92, the proposed change has been 
reviewed to determine that no significant hazards exist as a result 
of this change. The analysis showed:
    (1) The proposed amendment will not involve a significant 
increase in the probability or consequence of an accident previously 
evaluated.
    This amendment does not involve any changes in the operation or 
frequency of the turbine valve tests. This amendment will simply 
relocate the turbine valve testing requirements from the Kewaunee 
Nuclear Power Plant's (KNPP's) Technical Specifications (TSs) to the 
Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR). This change is administrative 
in nature and therefore will not involve a significant increase in 
the probability or consequence of an accident previously evaluated.
    (2) The proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a 
new or different kind of accident from any accident previously 
evaluated.
    This amendment is administrative in nature and will not change 
any requirements. This change will simply relocate the requirements 
from the KNPP TSs to the USAR. The purpose of the turbine stop and 
governor valves is to control steam flow to the turbine. This 
amendment will not adversely affect the steam flow control 
capability of the turbine valves. Therefore, this change will not 
create the possibility of a new or different type of accident from 
any accident previously evaluated.
    (3) The proposed amendment will not involve a significant 
reduction in the margin of safety.
    This amendment will simply relocate the existing turbine valve 
testing requirements and will not result in any changes to the 
requirements. The KNPP will continue to follow the recommendations 
of WCAP 11525, ``Probabilistic Evaluation of Reduction in Turbine 
Valve Test Frequency.'' As a result, KNPP will continue to maintain 
acceptably low probabilities of turbine valve failure. Since the 
same requirements still exist and turbine valve testing will 
continue to be consistent with the recommendations of WCAP 11525, 
this amendment will not involve a significant decrease in the margin 
of safety.

    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

    Description of amendment request: This amendment request proposes 
revising Technical Specifications 4.7.1.2.1.b.1 and 4.7.1.2.1.b.2 to 
clarify the surveillance requirements for verifying the correct 
required position for the valves in the auxiliary feedwater system.
    Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration 
determination: As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has 
provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards 
consideration, which is presented below:

    1. The proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in 
the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
    The proposed changes do not affect the ability of the auxiliary 
feedwater system to perform its intended safety function. The 
changes are administrative in nature since they merely clarify the 
demonstration of operability required in the surveillance 
requirements.
    2. The proposed changes do not create the possibility of a new 
or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.
    There are no new failure modes or mechanisms associated with the 
proposed changes. The changes are administrative changes to remove 
confusion when performing surveillance requirements to demonstrate 
operability.
    3. The proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction 
in the margin of safety.
    These proposed changes do not effect [sic] any technical 
specification margin of safety. The changes only provide 
clarification for performance of surveillance requirements.

    The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on 
this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 50.92(c) are 
satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the 
amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

to Facility Operating Licenses, Proposed No Significant Hazards 
Consideration Determination, and Opportunity for a Hearing

    The following notices were previously published as separate 
individual notices. The notice content was the same as above. They were 
published as individual notices either because time did not allow the 
Commission to wait for this biweekly notice or because the action 
involved exigent circumstances. They are repeated here because the 
biweekly notice lists all amendments issued or proposed to be issued 
involving no significant hazards consideration.
    For details, see the individual notice in the Federal Register on 
the day and page cited. This notice does not extend the notice period 
of the original notice.
