' RUNITED STATES 0 -NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 January 4, 2002 Mr. J. A. Stall Senior Vice President, Nuclear and Chief Nuclear Officer Florida Power and Light Company P.O. Box 14000 Juno Beach, Florida 33408-0420

SUBJECT:

ST. LUCIE UNIT 2 - ISSUANCE OF CORRECTED PAGE FOR AMENDMENT NO. 123 REGARDING REDUNDANT TRAIN REQUIREMENTS WITH AN INOPERABLE EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR (TAC NO. MB3182)

Dear Mr. Stall:

Following the issuance of Amendment No. 123 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-1 6 for the St. Lucie Plant, Unit No. 2, your staff noted an error on the clean (corrected) Technical Specification (TS) page 3/4 8-1 that they had submitted. TS 3.8.1.1, under ACTION b, should have read ". . . restore the diesel generator to OPERABLE status within 14 days.... ." (instead of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />). The error was in a section of the TSs that was not included in Amendment 123.

This letter forwards the corrected page to be inserted into the amendment in place of the incorrect one.

Sincerely, Brendan T. Moroney, Project Manager, Section 2 Project Directorate II Division of Licensing Project Management Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-389

3/4.8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS 3/4.8.1 A.C. SOURCES OPERATING LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION 3.8.1.1 As a minimum, the following A.C. electrical power sources shall be OPERABLE:

a. Two physically independent circuits between the offsite transmission network and the onsite Class 1E distribution system, and

b. Two separate and independent diesel generators, each with:

1. Two separate engine-mounted fuel tanks containing a minimum volume of 200 gallons of fuel each,

2. A separate fuel storage system containing a minimum volume of 40,000 gallons of fuel, and

3. A separate fuel transfer pump.

APPLICABILITY: MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4.

ACTION:

a. With one offsite circuit of 3.8.1.1.a inoperable, except as provided in Action f.

below, demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the remaining A.C. sources by performing Surveillance Requirement 4.8.1.1.1 .a within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and at least once per 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> thereafter.

declare required feature(s) supported by the inoperable EDG inoperable if its redundant required feature(s) is inoperable.

If the absence of any common-cause failure cannot be confirmed, this test shall be completed regardless of when the inoperable EDG is restored to OPERABILITY.
