Background

The Harris Nuclear Plant (HNP) Technical Specifications (TS) Section 6.9.1.6 provides information regarding the Core Operating Limits Report (COLR). HNP Plant Procedure PLP 106, "Technical Specification Equipment List Program and Core Operating Limits Report,"

implements the cycle-specific core parameter limits. TS 6.9.1.6.2 requires that the analytical methods used to determine the PLP-106 core operating limits shall be those previously reviewed and approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) at the time the reload analyses are performed, and the approved revision number shall be identified in the COLR.

Proposed Change The amendment proposed by Carolina Power & Light Company to the Harris Nuclear Plant (HNP) Technical Specifications (TS) revises TS 6.9.1.6.2 to add analytical methodology references, which are used to determine core operating limits. TS 6.9.1.6.2.f is being revised to relocate six of the referenced methodologies to TS 6.9.1.6.2.n, which groups the mechanical design methodologies together. The six relocated methodologies are: XN-NF-81-58 (P)(A),

ANF-81-58 (P)(A), XN-NF-82-06 (P)(A), ANF-88-133 (P)(A), XN-NF-85-92 (P)(A), and EMF 92-116 (P)(A). Two new methodologies have been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2. EMF-2310 (P)(A),

"SRP Chapter 15 Non-LOCA Methodology for Pressurized Water Reactors," has been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2.m, and EMF-2328 (P)(A), "PWR Small Break LOCA Evaluation Model, S-RELAP5 Based," has been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2.o.

Basis for the Proposed Change HNP TS 6.9.1.6.2 requires that methods that are used to determine core operating limits be previously approved by the NRC. The analytical methodologies being added to the HNP TS have been reviewed and approved by the NRC, and this approval is documented within the (P)(A) designated methodology documents in accordance with the guidance in NUREG-0390. EMF 2310 (P)(A), "SRP Chapter 15 Non-LOCA Methodology for Pressurized Water Reactors," was approved by NRC Safety Evaluation Report (SER) by letter dated May 11, 2001. Methodology EMF-2328 (P)(A), "PWR Small Break LOCA Evaluation Model, S-RELAP5 Based," was approved by NRC SER in a letter dated March 15, 2001.

ENCLOSURE 2 TO SERIAL: HNP-02-112 SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT NRC DOCKET NO. 50-400/LICENSE NO. NPF-63 REQUEST FOR LICENSE AMENDMENT ADDITION OF METHODOLOGY REFERENCES TO CORE OPEATING LIMITS REPORT 10 CFR 50.92 EVALUATION The Commission has provided standards in 10 CFR 50.92(c) for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists. A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility involves no significant hazards consideration if 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, (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. Carolina Power & Light Company has reviewed this proposed license amendment request and determined that its adoption would not involve a significant hazards determination. The bases for this determination are as follows:

Proposed Change The amendment proposed by Carolina Power & Light Company to the Harris Nuclear Plant (HNP) Technical Specifications (TS) revises TS 6.9.1.6.2 to add analytical methodology references, which are used to determine core operating limits. TS 6.9.1.6.2.f is being revised to relocate six of the referenced methodologies to TS 6.9.1.6.2.n, which groups the mechanical design methodologies together. The six relocated methodologies are: XN-NF-81-58 (P)(A),

ANF-81-58 (P)(A), XN-NF-82-06 (P)(A), ANF-88-133 (P)(A), XN-NF-85-92 (P)(A), and EMF 92-116 (P)(A). Two new methodologies have been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2. EMF-2310 (P)(A),

"SRP Chapter 15 Non-LOCA Methodology for Pressurized Water Reactors," has been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2.m, and EMF-2328 (P)(A), "PWR Small Break LOCA Evaluation Model, S RELAP5 Based," has been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2.o.

Basis This change does not involve a significant hazards consideration for the following reasons:

1. The proposed amendment does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

The proposed changes incorporate additional references to methodologies used to evaluate core operating limits. These methodologies have been approved by the NRC for use in licensing applications. Plant structures, systems, and components will not be operated in a different Page E2-1 of 2

manner as a result of these proposed changes and no physical modifications to equipment are involved. Adding these references to the Core Operating Limits Report section of Technical Specifications does not increase the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2. The proposed amendment does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

The proposed changes incorporate additional references to methodologies used to evaluate core operating limits. These methodologies have been approved by the NRC for use in licensing applications. Plant structures, systems, and components will not be operated in a different manner as a result of these changes and no physical modifications to equipment are involved.

Adding these references to the Core Operating Limits Report section of Technical Specifications does not create the possibility of a new or different type of accident from any previously evaluated.

3. The proposed amendment does not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.

The proposed changes incorporate additional references to methodologies used to evaluate core operating limits. These methodologies have been approved by the NRC for use in licensing applications. Plant structures, systems, and components will not be operated in a different manner as a result of these changes and no physical modifications to equipment are involved.

Adding these references to the Core Operating Limits Report section of Technical Specifications does not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.

ENCLOSURE 3 TO SERIAL: HNP-02-112 SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT NRC DOCKET NO. 50-400/LICENSE NO. NPF-63 REQUEST FOR LICENSE AMENDMENT ADDITION OF METHODOLOGY REFERENCES TO CORE OPEATING LIMITS REPORT ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9) provides criterion for and identification of licensing and regulatory actions eligible for categorical exclusion from performing an environmental assessment. A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility requires no environmental assessment if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not: (1) involve a significant hazards consideration; (2) result in a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite; (3) result in a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Carolina Power & Light Company has reviewed this request and determined that the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment needs to be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendment. The basis for this determination follows:

Proposed Change The amendment proposed by Carolina Power & Light Company to the Harris Nuclear Plant (HNP)

Technical Specifications (TS) revises TS 6.9.1.6.2 to add analytical methodology references, which are used to determine core operating limits. TS 6.9.1.6.2.f is being revised to relocate six of the referenced methodologies to TS 6.9.1.6.2.n, which groups the mechanical design methodologies together. The six relocated methodologies are: XN-NF-81-58 (P)(A), ANF-81-58 (P)(A), XN-NF-82-06 (P)(A), ANF-88-133 (P)(A), XN-NF-85-92 (P)(A), and EMF-92-116 (P)(A).

Two new methodologies have been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2. EMF-2310 (P)(A), "SRP Chapter 15 Non-LOCA Methodology for Pressurized Water Reactors," has been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2.m, and EMF-2328 (P)(A), "PWR Small Break LOCA Evaluation Model, S-RELAP5 Based," has been added to TS 6.9.1.6.2.o.

Basis The change meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9) for the following reasons:

1. As demonstrated in Enclosure 2, the proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration.

Page E3-1 of 2

2. The proposed amendment does not result in a significant change in the types or increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite.

The change does not introduce any new effluents or significantly increase the quantities of existing effluents. As such, the change cannot significantly affect the types or amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite.

3. The proposed amendment does not result in a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.

The proposed change does not result in any physical plant changes or new surveillances that would require additional personnel entry into radiation controlled areas. Therefore, the amendment has no significant affect on either individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
