SUMMARY

BVPS CHANGE UNIT NUMBER DESCRIPTION 1 1-001 This change removed various bases because the associated technical specifications were relocated to the Licensing Requirements Manual per License Amendment 246. It also incorporated changes partially reflecting License Amendment 247 (change to minimum decay time prior to fuel movement).

1 1-006 Bases were removed due to License Amendment 250. The amendment permitted relocation of technical specification requirements for liquid and gaseous waste storage and explosive gases to licensee documents.

1 and 2 1-008 Reactor Coolant System power operated relief valve capacities 2-011 were revised due to recent evaluations of the previously stated values.

1 and 2 1-010 Bases were revised due to License Amendments 253 and 133 at 2-013 Units 1 and 2, respectively. These amendments involved various changes related to safety injection accumulator operability and surveillance requirements.

I and 2 1-011 Bases were revised due to License Amendments 258 and 140 at 2-015 Units 1 and 2, respectively, that revised requirements related to missed technical specification surveillances.

I and 2 1-012 Bases were revised to reflect License Amendments 252 and 132 2-016 at Units 1 and 2, respectively. These amendments revised surveillance requirements related to containment spray systems and revised terminology used to refer to the first stage turbine pressure.

1 and 2 1-013 An index for each unit's bases was removed from the technical 2-017 specifications by License Amendments 255 and 136 at Units 1 and 2, respectively, and relocated to the bases document.

1 and 2 1-015 Bases were revised to reflect the application of alternate source 2-019 term methodology and resultant plant modifications permitted by License Amendments 257 and 139 at Units 1 and 2, respectively.

1 and 2 1-017 These revisions supplemented the bases for the component 2-022 cooling water systems to indicate the reason why a component cooling heat exchanger that is in standby mode may be considered operable.

1 1-018 Bases were clarified regarding the overpressure protection system design basis transient and how more severe transients are prevented.
