Subject:
Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit No. 1 and No. 2 BV-1 Docket No. 50-334, License No. DPR-66 BV-2 Docket No. 50-412, License No. NPF-73 Supplement to License Amendment Request Nos. 295 and 167 Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company (FENOC) requested an amendment to the above licenses in the form of changes to the Technical Specifications. These changes were submitted by FENOC letter L-01-135, dated October 31, 2001. The License Amendment Requests propose the creation of a Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) for each unit based on the guidance provided by Generic Letter 96-03 "Relocation of the Pressure Temperature Limit Curves and Low Temperature Overpressure Protection System Limits."
On April 17, 2002, a phone call was held with the NRC staff concerning their review of the subject License Amendment Requests (LARs). The NRC staff requested that the St. Lucie and Fort Calhoun data referenced in the supporting reports submitted with the LAR be added to the proposed PTLR for Beaver Valley Power Station Unit 1.
Attachment A contains the requested data as new tables for the Unit 1 PTLR as well as the other revised pages that reflect this change.
Attachment A also contains a revision to Table 4.2-3 of the proposed PTLR for Unit 1.
The revision adds a less than or equal sign (<) before the value specified in the table.
This editorial change provides consistency with Technical Specification 3.4.9.3, "Overpressure Protection Systems," for Unit 1. The revisions to the proposed PTLR are denoted by revision bars in the right margin.
The attached changes do not change the safety analysis or no significant hazard evaluation contained in L-0 1-135.
An implementation period of up to 60 days is requested following the effective date of this amendment.
Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit No. 1 and No. 2 Supplement to License Amendment Request Nos. 295 and 167 L-02-058 Page 2 If there are any questions concerning this matter, please contact Mr. Larry R. Freeland, Manager, Regulatory Affairs/Corrective Action at 724-682-5284.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on May 31, 2002.
