November 20, 2001 Mr. Anthony R. Pietrangelo Director Risk and Performance Based Regulation Nuclear Energy Institute 1776 Eye Street, N.W.

Suite 400 Washington, DC 20006-2496

Dear Mr. Pietrangelo:

This is to inform you that disposition has been made on TSTF-345 containing proposed changes to the Standard Technical Specification (STS) NUREGs made by the NEI Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF). The staff suggests the following modifications to the traveler should you desire to pursue this change:

In order to assure that the adequate shutdown margin requirement (SDM) is maintained for the conditions with the regulating group out of sequence or in the wrong overlap configuration, the following actions should be considered to include as part of action items in BAW STS 3.2.1 Condition C:

To verify in one hour that the SDM meets the required limit specified in the COLR, or To initiate boration and restore the SDM to within the required limit in one hour.

The actions to verify or to restore the required SDM are comparable to actions included in WOG STS 3.1.6 Required Actions B.1.1 and B.1.2.

This completes our review of TSTF-345, Revision 0. Please contact me at (301) 415-1161 or e-mail wdb@nrc.gov if you have any questions or need further information on this disposition.

Sincerely,

/RA/
