SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION Florida Power& Light Company (FPL) hereby requests amendments to Renewed Facility Operating Licenses DPR-67 and NPF-16 for St. Lucie Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, respectively. The proposed license amendments modify and relocate the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits requirements of TS 5.9.1 and TS 5.7.1 from the Design Features to the Administrative Controls sections of the St. Lucie Unit 1 and St. Lucie Unit 2 TS, respectively. In addition, the proposed license amendments relocate the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits Table 5.9-1 and Table 5.7-1 from the St. Lucie Unit 1 TS and the St. Lucie Unit 2 TS to the St. Lucie Unit 1 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) and the St.
Lucie Unit 2 UFSAR, respectively. The proposed changes serve to align the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS more closely with NUREG-1432, Standard Technical Specifications - Combustion Engineering Plants, Revision 4.0 (Reference 6.1).
2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION 2.1 St. Lucie Unit 1 - Revision of TS 5.9.1 and Deletion of Table 5.9-1 St. Lucie Unit 1, TS 5.9.1, states that the components identified in Table 5.9-1 are designed and shall be maintained within the cyclic or transient limits of Table 5.9-1. The proposed change relocates Table 5.9-1 from the St. Lucie Unit 1 TS to the St. Lucie Unit 1 UFSAR. In addition, the proposed change deletes TS 5.9.1, and relocates the requirement to newly created TS 6.8.4.q, Component Cyclic or Transient Limit Program, within the Administrative Controls section of the St. Lucie Unit 1 TS. Consistent with Section 5.5.5 of NUREG-1432, Revision 4.0 (Reference 6.1), TS 6.8.4.q will state that the
[Component Cyclic or Transient Limit] Program provides controls to track the FSAR cyclic and transient occurrences to ensure that components are maintained within the design limits.

TS 6.8.4.r Component Cyclic or Transient Limit Program
St. Lucie Nuclear Plant L-2016-212 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Enclosure Page 5 of 35 The Program provides controls to track the FSAR, Section 3.9, cyclic and transient occurrences to ensure that components are maintained within the design limits.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
The proposed change relocates Component Cyclic or Transient Limits Table 5.9-1 and Table 5.7-1 from the St. Lucie Unit 1 and St. Lucie Unit 2 TS, to the respective St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 UFSARs. In addition, the proposed change deletes TS 5.9.1 and TS 5.7.1 from the St. Lucie Unit 1 and the St. Lucie Unit 2 TS, respectively, and relocates the requirements to the Component Cyclic or Transient Limit Program, within the Administrative Controls sections of the St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 TS.
)
The Component Cyclic or Transient Limits are derived from design analyses but are not of controlling importance to operational safety. More specifically, the limits do not impose any limitations or conditions on Reactor operation which are necessary to obviate an abnormal situation or event that could pose an immediate threat to public safety. Mence, changes to the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits should not be subject to Commission approval; a rationale espoused in the NRC's Final Policy Statement on TS Improvements for Nuclear Power Reactors (Reference 6.2). The Component Cyclic or Transient Limits are tracked via plant Administrative Procedure (AP) 0010134, Component Cycles and Transients, and the tracKing methodology and periodicity will remain unchanged. The relocation of Table 5.9-1 and Table 5.7-1 to the respective St. Lucie Unit 1 and 2 UFSAR(s) requires that future changes to the cyclic and transient limits are first evaluated pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59. Furthermore, the relocation of the Component Cyclic or Transient Limit Program to the TS Administrative Controls sections is consistent with Section 5.5.5 of NUREG-1432, Revision 4.0 (Reference 6.1). As such, deleting TS 5.9.1 and TS 5.7.1, relocating the Component Cyclic or Transient Limit Program to the TS Administrative Controls sections of the St. Lucie Unit 1 and 2 TS and relocating Table 5.9-1 and Table 5.7-1 to the respective St. Lucie Unit 1 and 2 UFSARs is reasonable.
4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
4.1 Applicable Requlatorv Requirements/Criteria 10 CFR 50.36, paragraphs (c)(1 ), (c)(2) and (c)(3) specify that the TS shall include safety limits, limiting safety system settings, limiting control settings, limiting conditions for operation (LCO), and surveillance requirements (SRs).
10 CFR 50.36(c)(4) specifies that the Design Features to be included in the TS are those features of the facility such as materials of construction and geometric arrangements, which, if altered or modified, would have a significant effect on safety and are not covered in categories described in 10 CFR 50.36 paragraphs (c) (1 ), (2), and (3).
The Component Cyclic or Transient Limits are not safety limits, limiting safety system settings, or limiting control settings. In addition, they are neither LCOs nor SRs. Hence, the Component Cyclic.or Transient Limits are not covered in the categories described in 10 CFR 50.36 paragraphs (c) (1), (2), and (3).
The Component Cyclic or Transient Limits are listed in the respective St. Lucie Unit 1 and 2 TS as Design Features. However, the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits were established to ensure that the associated components are maintained within their design limits over the lifetime of the plant(s). As such, the
St. Lucie N-uclear Plant L-2016-212 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Enclosure Page 6 of 35 Component Cyclic or Transient Limits are not facility features which would have a significant effect on safety if altered or modified.
Based upon the foregoing, the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits do not satisfy the 10 CFR 50.36(c) criteria for inclusion in the TS and hence relocation of Table 5.9-1 and Table 5.7-1 to the respective St. Lucie Unit 1 and 2 UFSARs is reasonable. Following NRG approval of this license amendment, changes to the component cyclic or transient limits will be controlled pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59.
4.2 Precedents The following precedents establish a basis for the proposed changes.
4.2.1 South Texas Project, Units 1 and 2, License Amendment Request, Proposed Amendment to South Texas Project Technical Specifications to Revise Administrative Control Requirements, dated November 5, 2001, (Reference 6.4)
In Reference 6.4, the licensee proposed changes to the South Texas Project Unit 1 and 2 TS that would relocate the details contained in TS 6.8.3.f, regarding the component cyclic or transient limits, to the UFSAR and change the verbiage to be consistent with NUREG 1431 (Reference 6.3). In justifying the change, the licensee stated that the program requirements were being maintained in the TS and that only the specific details of the design limits were being relocated to the UFSAR. _)_
In Reference 6.5, the staff granted the licensee's request to amend the South Texas Project Unit 1 and 2 TS, stating that the change is acceptable and noting that the licensee would retain the program requirements in the TS but would relocate the specific detailed design limits to the UFSAR and that subsequent USFAR changes would be controlled by the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59.
4.2.2 Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN) - Units 1 and 2 - Technical Specifications (TS)
Change 05-02 "Cyclic and Transient Limits with Design Features Revision",
dated September 30, 2005 (Access!on No. ML052870040) (Reference 6.6)
In Reference 6.6, the licensee proposed changes to the Sequoyah Nuclear (SQN) Units 1 and 2 TS that would relocate the component cyclic or transient limits requirements from the Design Features section to the Administrative Controls section of the SQN TS and would relocate Table 5.7.1,"Component Cyclic or Transient Limits", to the USFAR.
In Reference 6.7, the staff granted the licensee's request to amend the SQN Units 1 and 2 TS, stating that the change is administrative in nature since the requirements to track and maintain the [component or cyclic] limits remain in the SQN TSs and that the change also conforms to NUREG-1431 (Reference 6.3).
The above precedents are relevant to this license amendment request (LAR) because the *staff acknowledged that the TS requirement to maintain the component and cyclic limits would be retained, that changes to the specific design limits would be subject to the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59, and that the changes conformed to the applicable Improved Standard Technical Specifications.
c
St. Lucie Nuclear Plant L-2016-212 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Enclosure Page 7 of 35 4.3 No Significant Hazards Consideration The proposed change relocates Component Cyclic or Transient Limits Table 5.9-1 and Table 5.7-1 from the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS, to the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 UFSARs, respectively. In addition, the proposed change deletes TS 5.9.1 and TS 5.7.1 from the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS, and relocates the Component Cyclic or Transient Limit Program, to the Administrative Controls seCtion of the respective TS.
As required by 10 CFR 50.91 (a), FPL has evaluated the proposed changes using the criteria in 10 CFR 50.92 and has determined that the proposed changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration. An analysis of the issue of no significant hazards consideration is presented below:
(1) Does the proposed amendment involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?
Response: No The relocation of Component Cyclic or Transient Limits Table 5.9-1 and Table 5.7-1 from the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS, to the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 UFSARs, and the relocation of the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits Program requirements within the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS are administrative changes in nature. The TS changes do not represent any physical change to plant systems, structures, or components, or to procedures established for plant operation. As such, the initial conditions associated with accidents previously evaluated and plant systems credited for mitigating the consequences of accidents previously evaluated remain unchanged.
Therefore, facility operation in accordance with the proposed license amendments would not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
(2) Does the proposed amendment create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?
Response: No The relocation of Component Cyclic or Transient Limits tables from the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS, to the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 UFSARs, and the relocation of the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits Program requirements within the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS are administrative changes in nature. No physical change to plant systems, structures, or components, or the manner in which they are operated and maintained will result from the proposed license amendments.
Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.
(3) Does the proposed amendment involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?
Response: No The relocation of Component Cyclic or Transient Limits tables from the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS, to the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 UFSARs, and the
St. Lucie Nuclear Plant L-2016-212
-Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Enclosure Page 8 of 35 relocation of the Component Cyclic or Transient Limits Program requirements within the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS are administrative changes in nature.
As such, the proposed changes do not involve changes to any safety analyses assumptions, safety limits, or limiting safety system settings nor do they adversely impact plant operating margins or the reliability of equipment credited in safety analyses.
Therefore, operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment will not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.
Based upon the above analysis, FPL concludes that the proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration, under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, "Issuance of Amendment," and accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.
4.4 Conclusion In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health ~nd safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The proposed amendment modifies a regulatory requirement with respect to the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 CFR 20, or changes an inspection or surveillance requirement. However, the proposed amendment does not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).
Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22{b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.
