Progress Energy Progress E10 era:HNP-07-127 CFR 50.90 SEP .. 3 2007 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTENTION: Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555 SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT NO. 1 DOCKET NO. 50-400/LICENSE NO. NPF-63 CORRECTION TO TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION PAGE IN AMENDMENT 125

Reference:

Letter from NRC to CP&L: "Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1 -

Issuance of Amendment on Revision to Technical Specification 6.12, High Radiation Area (TAC No. MD3895)," dated July 23, 2007 Ladies and Gentlemen:

Amendment No. 125 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-63 for the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit No. 1 (HNP) was issued July 23, 2007, as referenced. Carolina Power and Light Company (CP&L), doing business as Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc.,

included in its submittal to the NRC camera-ready Technical Specification (TS) pages.

Further review of these pages identified a typographical error in TS 6.12 "High Radiation Area," Section 6.12.1 .a (page 6-26) of the camera-ready pages, which was subsequently contained in the Amendment as issued July 23, 2007.

The error involves the misspelling of the word "equipment" as "eqiupment" in Section 6.12.1.a of the camera-ready TS page 6-26. While this word was reflected correctly in the marked-up TS page, it was inadvertently misspelled on the camera-ready page provided for Amendment 125.

The corrected camera-ready TS page is included in the attachment to this letter.

This document contains no new Regulatory Commitment.

Please refer any question regarding this submittal to me at (919) 362-3137.

Sincerely, D. H. Corlett Supervisor - Licensing/Regulatory Programs Harris Nuclear Plant DHC/kms Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc.

.-1 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS 6.11 RADIATION PROTECTION PROGRAM 6.11.1 Procedures for personnel radiation protection shall be prepared consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 20 and shall be approved, maintained, and adhered to for all operations involving personnel radiation exposure.

6.12 HIGH RADIATION AREA As provided in paragraph 20.1601(c) of 10 CFR Part 20, the following controls shall be applied to high radiation areas in place of the controls required by paragraph 20.1601(a) and (b) of 10 CFR Part 20:

6.12.1 High Radiation Areas with Dose Rates Not Exceeding 1.0 rem/hour at 30 Centimeters from the Radiation Sources or from any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation

a. Each accessible entryway to such an area shall be barricaded and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area. Such barricades may be opened as necessary to permit entry or exit of personnel or equipment.

b. Access to, and activities in. each such area shall be controlled by means of a Radiation Work Permit (RWP) or equivalent that includes specification of radiation dose rates in the immediate work area(s) and other appropriate radiation protection equipment and measures.

c. Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures and personnel continuously escorted by such individuals may be exempted from the requirement for an RWP or equivalent while performing their assigned duties provided that they are otherwise following plant radiation protection procedures for entry to, exit from, and work in such areas.

d. Each individual or group entering such an area shall:

1. Possess a radiation monitoring device that continuously displays radiation dose rates in the area ("radiation monitoring and indicating device"): or

2. Possess a radiation monitoring device that continuously integrates the radiation dose rates in the area and alarms when the device's dose alarm setpoint is reached ("alarming dosimeter"), with an appropriate alarm setpoint: or

3. Possess a radiation monitoring device that continuously transmits dose rate and cumulative dose information to a remote receiver monitored by radiation protection personnel responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure within the area: or

4. Possess a self-reading dosimeter and be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, by means of closed circuit television, of personnel qualified in radiation protection procedures, responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure in the area, and with the means to communicate with individuals in the area who are covered by such surveillance; or SHEARON HARRIS - UNIT 1 6-26 Amendment No.

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS HIGH RADIATION AREA (Continued)

5. Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, of an individual qualified in radiation protection procedures, equipped with a radiation monitoring and indicating device; who is responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure within the area.

e. Except for individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures, or personnel continuously escorted by such individuals, entry into such areas shall be made only after dose rates in the area have been determined and entry personnel are knowledgeable of them. These

.continuously escorted personnel will receive a pre-job briefing nrior to entry into such areas. This dose rate determination, nowledge, and pre-job briefing does not require documentation prior to entry.

6.12.2 High Radiation Areas with Dose Rates Greater than 1.0 rem/hour at 30 Centimeters from the Radiation Source or from any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation, but less than 500 rads/hour at 1 Meter from the Radiation Source or from any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation

a. Each accessible entryway to such an area shall be conspicuously

ýosted as a locked high radiation area and shall be provided with a ocked or continuously guarded door or gate that prevents unauthorized entry, and in addition:

1. All such door and gate keys shall be maintained under the administrative control of the Superintendent - Shift Operations or the Radiation Control Supervisor or designated representative: and

2. Doors and gates shall remain locked or guarded except during periods of personnel or eqiupment entry or exit.

b. Access to. and activities in, each such area shall be controlled by means of an RWP or equivalent that includes specification of radiation dose rates in the immediate work area(s) and other appropriate radiation protection equipment and measures.

c. Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures may be exempted from the requirement for an RWP or equivalent while performing radiation surveys in such areas provided that they are otherwise following plant radiation protection procedures for entry to, exit from, and work in such areas.

d. Each individual or group entering such an area shall:

1. Possess an alarming dosimeter with an appropriate alarm setpoint: or

2. Possess a radiation monitoring device that continuously transmits dose rate and cumulative dose information to a remote receiver monitored by radiation protection personnel responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure within the area with the means to communicate with and control every individual in the area; or SHEARON HARRIS - UNIT 1 6-26a Amendment No.

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS HIGH RADIATION AREA (Continued)

3. Possess a direct-reading dosimeter and be under the surveillance as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, by means of closed circuit television, of personnel qualified in radiation protection procedures, responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure in the area, and with the means to communicate with and control every individual in the area; or

4. Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, of an individual qualified in radiation protection procedures, equipped with a radiation monitoring and indicating device;: who is responsible for controlling personnel exposure within the area: or

5. In those cases where the options of Specifications 6.12.2.d.2, 6.12.2.d.3, and 6.12.2.d.4 above; are impractical or determined to be inconsistent with the "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" principle, possess a radiation monitoring and indicating device.

e. Except for individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures, or personnel continuously escorted by such individuals, entry into such areas shall be made only after dose rates in the area have been determined and entry personnel are knowledgeable of them. These continuously escorted personnel will receive a pre-job briefing nrior to entry into such areas. This dose rate determination, nowledge, and pre-job briefing does not require documentation prior to initial entry.

f. Such individual areas that are within a larger area where no enclosure exists for purpose of locking and where no enclosure can reasonably be constructed around the individual area need not be controlled by a locked door or gate, nor continuously guarded, but shall be barricaded and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area, and aconspicuous, clearly visible flashing light shall be activated at the area as a warning device.
