1.0 A.lI 1.0 A.2 1.0 A.3 CTS Section 1.0 provides a definition of SHUTDOWN MARGIN (SDM). The ITS Section 1. I definition of SDM contains three diffcrcnces froml the CTS dcl'inition.
The CTS definition is changed to state the highest reactivity worth RCCA does not have to hc assumed if the RCCAs can be verified fully inserted by two independent means. 'T'his change is described in DOC L.5.
S The CTS definition is changed to indicate that the worth of any Rod Control Cluster Assemblics (RCCAs) which are not capable of being fully inserted must be accounted [For in the determnination of the SDM.
This change is acceptable because it is consistent with the existing SDM reqtuirCmenls in CTS 3.1.1.1 and 3.1.1.2.
S The CTS defIinition is clarified to include a description of the reacttor Conditions, i.e.,iomi nal zero power level, at which thc SDM is calculated.
This change is acceptable because including this in formation is not a technical change. SDM calculations are currently performed for nominal zero power conditions.
These changes are designated as administrative because they do not represent a technical change to the Technical Specifications...

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do rnot result in technical changes to the CTS.
ITS Section 1. 1 provides definitions of ACTUATION LOGIC TEST, MASTER REIAY TEST, and TRIP ACTUATING DEVICE OPERATIONAL TEST (TADOT). These terms are used as defined terms in the ITS but do not appear in the CTS.
This change is acceptable because these changes do not impose any new requirements or alter existing requirements. Any technical changes due to the addition of these terms and definitions will be addressed in the Discussion of Changes (DOCs) for the sections of the Technical Specilfications in which the terms are used. These changes are designated as administrative as they add defined terms which involve no technical change to the Technical Specifications.

This change is acceptable because the movement of this information does not impose any new requirements or alter existing requirements. Any technical changes associated with the movement of this information will be addressed in other DOCs. This change is categorized as administrative because it is the movement of information within the Technical Specifications.
CTS Section 1.0 provides a definition of CORE ALTERATION. The ITS Section I. I definition of CORE ALTERATION revises the CTS definition to eliminate two redundant phrases.
The CTS definition includes, "movement or manipulation" of any component within the reactor vessel. The ITS definition of CORE ALTERATION will only include "movement" of components, not "manipulation."
This change is acceptable because the eliminated phrase adds no value. In the context of this definition, any manipulation of a component will involve its movement, so stating "movement or manipulation" is redundant and potentially confusing.
The CTS definition does not preclude completion of movement of a component to at "safe conservative" position. The ITS definition specifies only a "salfe" position.
This change is acceptable because the eliminated phrase adds no value. The Technical Specifications provide no basis for determining whether a movement is conservative, so it is assumed that the word "conservative" is used in the definition to mean "sal'e."
Therefore, stating "safe conservative" is repetitious andl potentially confusing.
These changes are designated administrative because they rep,'scnt thle elimination of redundant words and phrases without changing the intent of the definition.

TFhe ITS will not contain this information in Section I. 1, but will state the FREQUENCY requirements in each Surveillance.
NOTATION and Table 1.2 This change is acceptable because each ITS Surveillance Requirement (SR) provides the specific frequency without relying on a notation (e.g., "31 days" versus "M"). Providing the specific fr'equencies in the Surveillance Requirements eliminates the need for the FREQUENCY NOTATION definition and CTS Table 1.2. Any Surveillance Frequencies altered by the elimination of the definition and table will be addressed in a DOC for the affected section. This change is designated as administrative because it does not change any SR frequencies.
1.0 A.7 CTS Section 1.0 provides a definition of FULLY WITHDRAWN, which defines the fully withdrawn None 1.0 definition of position of the RCCAs as between 225 and 229 steps. The ITS will not include FULLY WITHDRAWN FULLY as a defined term.
WITHDRAWN This change is acceptable because the term FULLY WITHIDRAWN is not used as a defined termi in the ITS or ITS Bases. This change is designated as administrative because it eliminates a defined tei in that is no longer used 1.0 A.8 CTS Section 1.0 includes the Ihllowing definitions: CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY, GASEOUS None Listed 1.0 RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM, MEMBER(S) OF THE PUBLIC, PURGE - PURGING, definitions REPORTABLE EVENT, SITE BOUNDARY, SOURCE CHECK, UNRESTRIICTED AREA.

These changes are acceptable because the terms are not used as defined terms in) tile ITS. Discussions of any technical changes related to the deletion of these terms are included in the DOCs for the CTS sections in which the terms are used. These changes are designated as administrative because they eliminate defined terms that are no longer used.

LAIK GinitionEof LEAKAGE CTS Section 1.0 provides definitions for CONTROLLED LEAKAGE, IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE, PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE, and UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE. ITS Section 1.l1 includes these requirements in one definition called LEAKAGE (which includes tirce categories: Jentified LEAKAGE, unidentified LEAKAGE, and pressure boundary LEAKAGE). This changes the CTS by incorporating the definitions into the ITS LEAKAGE definition with no technical changes. The CTS term CONTROLILEI) LEAKAGE, which is the seal water flow supplied to the reactor coolant pump seals, is no longer considered leakage and has its own specification titled "Seal Injection Flow" as ITS 3.5.5. Since Seal Injection flow is no longer considered leakage, it appears as an exccpti(! i in the CTS definitions of IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE and UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE.
As a result, the ITS will not contain a defined term, "Controlled Leakage."
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical changes to the Technical Specifications. This change is designated an administrative change in that it rearranges existing definitions, with no change in intent.
CTS Section 1.0 provides definitions of ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURE RESPONSE TIME and REACTOR PROTECTIVE SYSTEM RESPONSE TIME. ITS Section 1. 1 modifies thie definitions to more fully describe how the tests are performed. This changes tile CTS by stating that the response time test may be measured by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total steps so that the entire response time is measured.
This change is acceptable because the ITS definitions are consistent with current plant practices, as well as the guidance provided in IEEE 338-1977, Section 6.3.4, "lResponse Time Veri fication Tests." The results of the test are unaffected by this allowance. This change is designated as administrative as it does not result in a technical change to the response time tests.

Page 5 ofl I I A-1.0 North Anna Power Station D)OC No.
CTS Section 1.0 defines CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST as "the injection {of a sinmlatcd signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY including alarm and/or trip functions."
ITS Section I-. I renames the CTS definition to CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST (COT) and defines it as, "the injection of a simulated or actual signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY of all devices in the channecl required for channel OPERABILITY.
The COT shall include adjustments, as necessary, of the required alarm, interlock, and trip sctpoints so that the setpoints are within the required range and accuracy. The COT'l may be perlormed by means of' any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel steps." The addition of use of an actual signal is discussed in DOC L.I1.
This changes the CTS by stating that the COT shall inclIude adjustmcnts, as necessary, of the (devices in the channel so that the setpoints are within tthe required range and accuracy, changes the example list of (evices contained in the definition, and states that the test may be pcrfornmed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps.
This change is acceptable because the ITS definition is consistent with currcnt plant practices anid the results of' the test are unaffected by the change.
"The CTS definition states that the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAl. T'ES shall verify that the channel is operable "including alarm and/or trip initiating action." The ITS states that the COT shall verify OPERABILITY of "all devices in the channel rcquired for channel OPERABILITY." This change is acceptable because the statements are equivalent in that both require that the channel be Verified to be OPERABLE. The CTS and the ITS Use different examples of what is included in a channel, but this does not change the intent ofI the requirement. The IeTS use of the phrase "all devices in the channel required for channel OPERABILITY" reflects the CTS undersianding that the test only incIides t(hose portionis of' the channel needed to perform the safetytrunction.
The ITS states, "'The COT shall include adjustments, as necessary, of the required alarm, interlock, and trip setpoints so that tie setpoints ate within the required lange and accuracy." This change is acceptable because it clarifies that adjustments perlormed during a COT do not invalidate ihe test.
This is consistent with the current implementation of tIhe CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST and does not result in a technical change to the speci fications.
The ITS states, "The COT may be perlormed by means of any series (If sequential, overlappling, and total channel steps." This change is acceptable because it states current Industry pnactice. This is consistent with the current implementation of the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST an( (does not result in a technical change to tlie specifications.

1.0 A.12 1.0 A.13 The purpose of the CTS and 'I'S definitions of OPERABIALE is to ensure that the sal'ety analysis assumptions regarding equipment and variablcs are valid. '[his change is acceptable because the intent of both the CTS and ITS definitions is to address the safety function(s) assumed in the accident analysis and not encompass other non-safety functions a system may also perform. These non-safety functions are not assumed in the safety analysis and are not nceded in order to protect tile public hcalth and safety. This change is consistent with the cutrrent interpretation and use of the terms OPLRABLE and OPERABILITY. This change is designated as administrative as it does not change the currcnt use and application of tie Technical Specifications.
1.1 definition of CHANNEL CALl BRPATION
'The CTS (defines CHANNEL CALIBRATION as, "A CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be the adjustment, as necessary, of the channel output such thlat it responds with the necessary range and accuracy to known values of the parameter which the channel monitors. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall encompass the entire channel including the scnsor and alarm and/or trip functions, and shall include the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION may be performed by any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel steps such that thie entire channel is calibrated." ITS defines CHANNEL CALIBRATION as, "the adjustment, as necessary, of the channel so that it responds within tile required range and accuracy to known input. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall encompass all devices in the channel required for channel OPERABIILITY.
Calibration of instrument channels with resistance temperature detector (RTD) or thermocouple sensors may consist of an inplace qualitative assessment of sensor behavior and normal calibration of the remaining adjustable devices in the channel. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping calibrations or total channel steps." 'This rcsuIts in a number o" changes to the CTS. The CTS definition states, "The CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall encompass tile entire channel including the sensor and alarm and/or trip functions" The ITS states, "The CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall encompass all devices in tihe channel required fo1r channel OPERABILITY.' The CTS states that the CHANNEL CALIBRATION "shall include the CHANNEL FUNCTrIONAL TEST." The ITS does not include this statement. ThIc IS adds the statement, "Calibration of instrument channels with resistance temperature detector (R,°.I'l)) or thermocouple sensors may consist of an inplace qualitative assessment of sensor behavior and normal calibration of the remaining adjustable devices in the channel."
The CTS Section 1.0 definition of OPERABLE requires a system, subsystem, train, component or device to be capable of performing its "specified function(s)" and all necessary support systems to also be capable of performing their "lunction(s)." The ITS Section I. I definition of OPERABLE requires the system, subsystem, train, component or device, and all necessary support systems, to be capable of performing the "specified safety 'unction(s)". This changes the CTS by altemring the requirement to be able to perform "'functions'" tro a requirement to be able to perlormn safcty functions."

1.0 delinition of Section I. 1 and Table, I. 1 I, "MODES," changes the CTS MODE dehnitioils in several ways:
MODE andTable OPEI3,ATIONAL 1.1-1 MODES aid Table The phrase "the vessel head closure bolts" is replaced with "one or more vessel head closure bolts" in Note **. This change is acccptable because thie revised phrase is consistent with the current interpretation and usage. MODE 6 is currently declared when the first vessel head closure bolt is dctensioned.
iThe Note ** condition, "fuel in tile reactor vessel" is moved fronm ['able I. I to the MODE definition. This change is acceptable because it moves in formation within the Technical Specifications with no change in intent.
The phrase "or with the head removed" is eliminated from Note *.This change is acceptable because it eliminates a redundant phrase. The reactor vessel head cannott be removed unless tile reactor vessel head closure bolts are detensioned. Since "One or more reactor vessel head closure bolts less thtan fully tensioned" is already specified in the Note, including "or with the head removed" is uonnecessary.
ITS Table 1.1-1 contains a new Note, labeled "(b)", which applie.s to MODES 4 and 5. Note (b) states, "All reactor vessel head closure bolts Iully tensioned." This Note is tihe opposite of CTS Note ** and ITS Note (c).This change is acceptable because it avoids a conflict between the definition of MODE 6 and the other MODES should RCS temperature increase above tile CTS MODE 6 temperature limit when a reactor vessel head closure bolt is less than fully tensioned.
This ITS Note is included only for clarity. It is consistent with the current use of MODES 4 and 5 and does not result in any technical change to the application of the MODES.
For consistency with the Notes in ITS Table I. I - I, the ITS definition of MODE incorporates "reactor vessel head closure bolt tensioning" to the list of characteristics that define a MODE.This change is acceptable because the definition of MODIE should be consistent with the MODE table in order to avoid confusion. This change is made only I'*r consistency and results in no technical changes to the Technical Specifications.
These changes are designated as administra!ive because they clarify the application of the MOI)ES and no technical changes to the MODE definitions are made. The clarifications are consistent with the current use and application of the MODES.

"-North Anna Power Station The CTS Section 1.0 definition of STAGGERED TEST BASIS states, "A STAGGERED TEST BASIS shall consist of: a. A test schedule For n systems, subsystems, trains or other designated components obtained by dividing the specified test interval into n equal subintervals, b. The testing of one system, subsystem, train, or other designated component at the beginning of each subinterval." The ITS Section
- 1. 1 definition states, "A STAGGERED TEST BASIS shall consist of the testing of one of the systems, subsystems, channels, or other designated components during the interval specified by the Surveillance Frequency, so that all systems, subsystems, channels, or other designated components are tested during n Surveillance Frequency intervals, where n is the total number of systems, subsystems, channels, or other designated components in the associated function." This changes tile CTS to specify tile frequency of a Surveillance on one system, subsystem, train, or other designated component in the Frequency column of the ITS instead of specifying the frequency in which all systems, subsystems, trains, or other designated components must be tested.
This change is acceptable because the testing frequency of components on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS is not changed. Unlike the CTS definition, the ITS dceinition allows the Surveillance intcerval for one subsystem to be specified in the Frequency column of the applicable Surveillance Requirements, independent of the number of subsystems. As an example, consider a three channel system tested on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The CTS would specify testing every three months on a STAGGEREDI TEST BASIS, which results in one channel being tested each month (three equal subintervals). Under the ITS definition, tile Surveillance frequency would be monthly on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS and, again, one channel would be tested each month. In both the CTS and ITS definition, all channels are tested every three months. Each test under the CTS definition would be perfornmed at the heginning of the subinterval. Under the ITS definition, each Surveillance Frequency starts ai the beginning of the CTS definition subintcrval. Thus, there are no net changes in the testing interval. This change reprcselnts an editorial preference in tile ITS.

S The minimum average reactor coolant tcmperature f 1r MODES I and 2 provided in CTS Tablc I. I is changed to NA (not applicable) in ITS Table I. 1-1I.
This change is acccptable because ITS LCO 3.4.2, RCS Minimum Tcmperature lor Criticality, provides the minimum reactor coolant temperature limits for MODES I and 2. Therelfoe, the 350'F minimum temperature docs not provide any useful infOrmnation in Table I. I-I, and is deleted from the ITS.
The CTS Table I. I MODE 6 upper limit on average reactor coolant temperature is removed. In ITS Table 1. I-I, the MODE 6 average reactor coolant temperalure limit is given as "NA" (not applicable).
This change is acceptable because it eliminatcs a conllict in the CTS MODE table. If the avcragc coolant temperature exceeds the upper limit with'the reactor vessel hcad closure bolts less than fully tensioned, the CTS Table could be misinterpreted as no MODE being applicable.
This is not the intent of the CTS or ITS MODE 6 definitions. By removing the temperature reference, this ambiguity is eliminated.
The CTS Table 1. 1 RATED THERMAL POWER limits of"01 (Yfor MODES 3, 4, 5. and 6 arc changed in ITS Table I.1-i to "NA" (not applicable).
This change is acceptable because the reactivity and plant cquipmcnt limitations in MODES 3, 4, 5 and 6 do not allow power operation. Therelore, it is not necessary to have these restrictions in the MODE table.

The SLAVE REI AY TEST shall include a continuity check, as a minimum, of* associated testable actuation devices." ITS Section 1. I defines the SLAVE RELAY TEST as, "the energization of all slave relays in the channel required for channel OPERABILITY and verification of OPERABILITY of each required slave relay. The SLAVE RELAY TEST shall include a continuity check of associated testable actuation devices. The SLAVE RELAY TEST may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps." This changes the CTS by stating that the SLAVE RELAY TEST shall include the slave relays required for channel OPERABILITY and by stating that the test may be performed by mcans of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps.
This change is acceptable because the ITS definition is consistent withl corrent plant practices and the results of the test are unaffected by the change.
The CTS definition states that the SLAVE RELAY TEST shall energize "each slave relay." The ITS states that the SLAVE RELAY TEST shall include the energization of "all slave relays in the channel required for channel OPEiRABILITY." This change is acceptable because the statements are equivalent in that both require that the channel be verified to be OPFERABLE. The ITS use of the phrase "all slave relays in the channel required for channel OPERABIIT.l1'Y" rielects the CTS understanding that the test only includes those portions of the channel needed to perform the safety function.
The ITS states, "The SLAVE RELAY TEST may be performed by means of any series ol sequential, overlapping, and total channel steps." This change is acceptable because it s:ates current Industry practice. This is consistent with the current implementation of the SLAVE* RELAY TEST and does not result in a technical change to the specifications.

ITS 2.1. I does not contain an allowance to operate with less than three reactor coolant loops in operation. This changes the CTS by eliminating references and place holders for curves applying to two-loop operation.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. Both the ITS and the CTS require all three loops in operation in the applicable MODES (MODES I and 2). This change is designated as administrative because it eliminates an option in the CTS which cannot be used.

Unit 2 CTS 3.0.1 states, "Compliance with the Limiting Conditions for Operation contained in the succeeding specifications is required during the OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions specified therein; except that upon failure to meet the Limiting Conditions for Operation, the associated ACTION requirements shall be met." ITS LCO 3.0.1 states, "LCOs shall be met during the MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability, except as noted in LCO 3.0.2 and 3.0.7." This results in several changes to the CTS.
Certain phrases are revised to be consistent with the equivalent phrase used in the ITS.
Specifically, "Limiting Conditions for Operation" is changed to "LCOs", and "OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions specified" is changed to "MODES and other specified conditions" to be consistent with the ITS definition of MODE and the terminology used in the ITS.
These changes are acceptable because they result in no change in the intent or application of the specification, but merely reflect editorial preferences used in the ITS.
The Unit I phrase "... ACTION requirements shall be applicable during the OPERATIONAL.
MODES..." and the Unit 2 phrase "... except that upon failure to meet the Limliting Conditions for Operation, the associated ACTION requirements shall be met" are moved firom CTS 3.0.1 to ITS LCO 3.0.2 which states that when an LCO is not met, the Required Actions must be met. The change is acceptable because moving this information within the Technical Specifications results in no change in the intent or application of ACTIONS.
The Unit I CTS 3.0.1 phrase "Limiting Conditions for Applicability... shall be applicable" and the Unit 2 CTS 3.0.1 phrase "Compliance with the Limiting Conditions for Operation contained in the succeeding specifications is required" are replaced in ITS LCO 3.0. I with the phrase "LCOs shall be met." This change is made to be consistent with the ITS terminology and to clarify the concept of an LCO being met (e.g., being in compliance with the requirements of the LCO), versus the LCO being applicable or required (e.g., the requirements in the LCO apply.) This change is acceptable because it is an editorial change that does not change the intent of the requirements.

Description of Change ITS Requirement [ CTS Requirement 3.0 A.2 The phrase "except as provided in LCO 3.0.2 and LCO 3.0.7" is added to CTS 3.0.1. ITS LCO LCO 3.0.1 3.0.1 3.0.2 describes the appropriate actions to be taken when ITS LCO 3.0.1 is not met. LCO 3.0.7 (con't) describes Test Exception LCOs, which are exceptions to other LCOs. This change is acceptable because adding the exception for LCO 3.0.2 and LCO 3.0.7 prevents a conflict within the Applicability section. This addition is needed for consistency in the ITS requirements and does not change the intent or application of the Specifications.
These changes are designated administrative because they are editorial and result in no technical changes to the Technical Specifications.

Unit I CTS 3.0.2 states, "Adherence to the requirements of the Limiting Condition for Operation and/or associated ACTION within the specified time interval shall constitute compliance with the Specification.
In the event the Limiting Condition for Operation is restored prior to expiration of the specified time interval, completion of the ACTION statement is not required." Unit 2 CTS 3.0.2 states the same requirements, but in the negative, as, "Noncompliance with a specification shall exist when the requirements of the Limiting Conditions for Operation and associated ACTION requirements are not met within the specified time intervals. If the Limiting Conditions for Operation is restored prior to expirations of the specified time intervals, completion of ACTION requirements is not required." ITS LCO 3.0.2 states, "Upon discovery of a failure to meet an LCO, the Required Actions of the associated Conditions shall be met, except as provided in LCO 3.0.5 and LCO 3.0.6. If the LCO is met or is no longer applicable prior to expiration of the specified Completion Time(s), completion of the Required Action(s) is not required unless otherwise stated." This results in several changes to the CTS.
The first sentence in Unit I CTS 3.0.2, states, in part, "Adherence to the requirements of the Limiting Condition for Operation and/or associated ACTION... shall constitute compliance with the Specification." This requirement is divided into portions of ITS LCO 3.0.!1, "LCOs shall be met" and ITS LCO 3.0.2, "Upon discovery of failure to meet an LCO, the Required Actions of the associated Conditions shall be met".
This change is acceptable because the intent of the CTS requirement is preserved, but the aspects of LCO compliance and the performance of ACTIONS when the LCO is not met are separated.
Unit 2 CTS 3.0.2, states, "Noncompliance with a specification shall exist when the requirements of the Limiting Condition for Operation and associated ACTION requirements are not met within the specified time intervals." This sentence is deleted. This information currently is stated in Unit 2 CTS 3.0.1 and is moved to ITS 3.0.2 as described in Discussion of Change A.2.
ITS 3.0.2 states that the Required Actions are to be taken when the LCO is not met. This rearrangement separates the description of LCOs (in ITS LCO 3.0.1) and the description of Required Actions (in ITS LCO 3.0.2).
This change is acceptable because it makes the Unit I and Unit 2 descriptions of LCOs and Required Actions identical and improves clarity, without changing the intent of the CTS.

Table A - Administrative Changes ITS Section 3.0 - LCO and SR Applicability A-3.0 North Anna Power Station Description of Change ITS Requirement I CTS Requirement 3.0 A.3 The Unit 1 and Unit 2 CTS 3.0.2 are revised to include an exception for LCO 3.0.5 and 3.0.6.
LCO 3.0.2 3.0.2 LCO 3.0.5 and LCO 3.0.6 are new allowances which take exception to the ITS LCO 3.0.2 (con't) requirement to take the Required Actions when the associated LCO is not met. This exception is included in LCO 3.0.2 to avoid conflicts between the applicability requirements.
This change is acceptable because it includes references to new items in the ITS and results in no change to the CTS. Changes resulting friom the incorporation of LCO 3.0.5 and LCO 3.0.6 are discussed in Discussions of Change L.2 and L.3.
The second sentence of Unit I CTS LCO 3.0.2 states, "In the event the Limiting Condition for Operation is restored prior to expiration of the specified time interval, completion of the ACTION statement is not required." The second sentence of Unit 2 CTS LCO 3.0.2 states, "if the Limiting Conditions for Operation is restored prior to expiration of the specified time intervals, completion of the ACTION requirements is not required." These sentences state the same requirement. They are replaced in ITS LCO 3.0.2 with, "If the LCO is met or is no longer applicable prior to expiration of the specified Completion Time(s), completion of the Required Action(s) is not required unless otherwise stated." This change is acceptable because, while worded differently, both the CTS and ITS state that ACTIONS do not have to be completed once the LCO is met or is no longer applicable. ITS LCO 3.0.2 also adds the phrase, "unless otherwise stated." There are some ITS ACTIONS which must be completed, even if the LCO is met or is no longer applicable.
This change is acceptable because it reflects a new feature in the ITS which did not exist in the CTS.
The technical aspects of these changes are discussed in the appropriate ITS sections.
These changes are designated as administrative because they are editorial and do not result in technical changes to the Technical Specifications.

Description of Change I ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.0 A.4 CTS LCO 3.0.3 is applicable, "when a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met, except as provided LCO 3.0.3 3.0.3 in the associated ACTION requirements." ITS LCO 3.0.3 expands those applicability requirements so that the requirement is applicable, "when an LCO is not met and the associated ACTIONS are not met, an associated ACTION is not provided, or if directed by the associated ACTIONS." This changes the CTS to add two new applicability conditions.
ITS LCO 3.0.3 is applicable when the LCO is not met and there is no applicable ACTION to be taken.
This change is acceptable because it is consistent with the current understanding and application of CTS 3.0.3.
ITS LCO 3.0.3 is applicable when directed by the associated ACTIONS. The current Technical Specifications do not contain requirements that direct entry into LCO 3.0.3. The ITS does contain such requirements. Any technical changes related to directing LCO 3.0.3 entry in an ACTION will be discussed in the affected specifications.
This change is acceptable because referencing a new feature in the ITS is an editorial change.
These changes are designated as administrative because they do not result in any technical changes to the Technical Specifications.
3.0 A.5 CTS 3.0.3 states the shutdown time limits in sequential order; i.e., each time limit is measured friom the LCO 3.0.3 3.0.3 completion of the previous step. ITS 3.0.3 states the time limits (Completion Times) from the time the condition was entered. In addition, the MODE titles used in CTS 3.0.3 are replaced with the corresponding MODE numbers in ITS LCO 3.0.3.
These changes are acceptable because the ITS times are the sum of the CTS times (e.g., the ITS Completion Time of 37 hours4.282407e-4 days <br />0.0103 hours <br />6.117725e-5 weeks <br />1.40785e-5 months <br /> to enter MODE 5 is the same as tile sum of the CTS allowance of I hour, 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, and 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.) This changes the CTS presentation only, and tile time allowed to enter each MODE is unchanged. Using MODE numbers instead of the corresponding MODE titles is an editorial preference which results in no change the requirements in the Technical Specifications. These changes are designated as administrative as they implement the editorial conventions used in the ITS without resulting in technical changes to the specifications.

Description of Change I ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.0 A.6 CTS 3.0.3 states, "Where corrective measures are completed that permit operation under the ACTION LCO 3.0.3 3.0.3 requirement, the ACTION may be taken in accordance with the specified time limits as measured from the time of failure to meet the Limiting Condition for Operation." ITS LCO 3.0.3 states this as, "Where corrective measures are completed that permit operation in accordance with the LCO or ACTIONS, completion of the actions required by LCO 3.0.3 is not required."
This change is acceptable because the changes to CTS 3.0.3 are editorial. Both the CTS and ITS state that LCO 3.0.3 can be exited if the LCO which lead to the entry into LCO 3.0.3 is met, or if one of the ACTIONS of that LCO is applicable. The CTS requirement also specifies that the time to complete the ACTIONS in the LCO is based on the initial failure to meet the LCO. Reentering the LCO after exiting LCO 3.0.3 does not reset the ACTION statement time requirements. This information is not explicitly stated in ITS LCO 3.0.3 but is true under the multiple condition entry concept of the ITS. This change is designated as administrative because there is no change in the intent or application of the CTS 3.0.3 requirements.

"Fable A - Administrative Changes ITS Section 3.0 - LCO and SR Applicability DOC No.
Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.0 A.7 Unit I CTS 3.0.4 states, "Entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability LCO 3.0.4 3.0.4 condition shall not be made unless the conditions of the Limiting Condition for Operation are met without reliance on provisions contained in the ACTION statements unless otherwise excepted. This provision shall not prevent passage through OPERATIONAL MODES as required to comply with ACTION statements." The Unit 2 CTS 3.0.4 is identical, except that the phrase, "unless otherwise excepted" is eliminated from the first sentence and a sentence is added stating, "Exceptions to these requirements are stated in individual specifications." ITS 3.0.4 states, "When an LCO is not met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability shall only be made a) When the associated ACTIONS to be entered permit continued operation in the MODE or other specific condition in the Applicability for an unlimited period of time, b) After performance of a risk evaluation, consideration of the results, determination of the acceptability of the MODE change, and establishment of risk management actions, if appropriate, or c) When a specific value or parameter allowance has been approved by the NRC. This Specification shall not prevent changes in MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability that are required to comply with ACTIONS or that are part of a shutdown of the unit." The addition of the a) and b) conditions is described in Discussion of Change (DOC) L. 1.
The following changes are made to CTS 3.0.4:
Unit I CTS 3.0.4 states, "Entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability condition shall not be made unless the conditions of the Limiting Condition for Operation are met without reliance on provisions contained in the ACTION statements unless otherwise excepted." Unit 2 CTS 3.0.4 is the same, except as described above. ITS LCO 3.0.4 does not contain a discussion of exceptions, but LCO 3.0.4.c states that specific value or parameter allowances, as approved by the NRC, may be used. The list of value or parameter allowances is in the Bases and lists LCO 3.4.16, RCS Specific Activity. This change is acceptable because the provisions in ITS LCO 3.0.4 eliminate the need for specific exceptions in individual specifications. The specific exceptions are eliminated from the specifications and discussed in specific DOCs in those specifications. Elimination of reference to these exceptions is acceptable because it does not technically change the specifications.
This change is designated as administrative because the change is needed to reflect technical changes made in other specifications. The technical aspects of those changes are discussed in other DOCs.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.0 A.7 Unit I and Unit 2 CTS 3,0.4 states, "This provision shall not prevent passage through LCO 3.0.4 3.0.4 (con't)
OPERATIONAL MODES as required to comply with ACTION statements." ITS LCO 3.0.4 states in part, "This Specification shall not prevent changes in MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability that are required to comply with ACTIONS." This change is acceptable because these statements are equivalent. Both are stating that LCO 3.0.4 shall not prevent a unit shutdown required by the Technical Specifications. The ITS wording recognizes that there are conditions in the Applicability that are not MODES, such as "During Core Alterations."
This change is designated as administrative as there is no change in the intent of CTS 3.0.4 and no additional flexibility is granted.
3.0 A.8 ITS LCO 3.0.7 is added to the CTS. LCO 3.0.7 states, "Test Exception LCOs [3.1.8] and 3.4.19 allow LCO 3.0.7 None specified Technical Specification requirements to be changed to permit performance of special tests and operations. Unless otherwise specified, all other TS requirements remain unchanged. Compliance with Test Exception LCOs is optional. When a Test Exception LCO is desired to be met but is not met, the ACTIONS of the Test Exception LCO shall be met. When a Test Exception LCO is riot desired to be met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability shall be made in accordance with the other applicable Specifications."
This change is acceptable because the current Technical Specifications contain test exception specifications which allow certain LCOs to not be met for the purpose of special tests and operations.
However, the CTS does not contain the equivalent of LCO 3.0.7. As a result, there could be confusion regarding which LCOs are applicable during special tests and LCO 3.0.7 was crafted to avoid that possible confusion. LCO 3.0.7 is consistent with the use and application of current test exception Specifications and does riot provide any new restriction or allowance. This change is designated as administrative because it does not technically change the specifications.

Table A - Administrative Changes ITS Section 3.0 - LCO and SR Applicability North Anna Power Station DOC No. I Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.0 A.9 CTS 4.0.1 states that Surveillance Requirements shall be applicable during the OPERATIONAL SR 3.0.1 4.0.1 MODES or other conditions specified for individual Limiting Conditions for Operation unless otherwise stated in an individual Surveillance Requirement. The first sentence of CTS 4.0.3 states that failure to perform a Surveillance Requirement within the allowed surveillance interval, defined by Specification 4.0.2, shall constitute noncompliance with the operability requirements for a Limiting Condition for Operation. The last sentence of CTS 4.0.3 states that Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment. ITS SR 3.0.1 states that SRs shall be met during the MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability for individual LCOs, unless otherwise stated in the SR.
Failure to meet a Surveillance, whether such failure is experienced during the performance of the Surveillance or between performances of the Surveillance, shall be failure to meet the LCO. Failure to perform a Surveillance within the specified Frequency shall be failure to meet the LCO except as provided in SR 3.0.3. Surveillances do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment or variables outside specified limits. Surveillances may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total steps. The changes to the CTS are:
The first sentence of CTS 4.0.1 states that Surveillance Requirements shall be applicable during the OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions specified for individual Limiting Conditions for Operation unless otherwise stated in an individual Surveillance Requirement. ITS SR 3.0.1 states that SRs shall be met during the MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability for individual LCOs, unless otherwise stated in the SR.
This change is acceptable because the requirements are identical. Changes friom Limiting Conditions for Operation to LCO, Surveillance Requirement to SR, and OPERATIONAL MODES to MODES are editorial preferences made to be consistent with the ITS format. This change is designated as administrative because the intent of the requirement is unchanged.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.0 A.9 The first sentence of CTS 4.0.3 states, "Failure to perform a Surveillance Requirement within SR 3.0.1 4.0.1 the allowed surveillance interval, defined by Specification 4.0.2, shall constitute noncompliance (con't) with the operability requirements for a Limiting Condition for Operation." This information is moved to ITS SR 3.0.1 which states, "Failure to meet a Surveillance, whether such failure is experienced during the performance of the Surveillance or between performances of the Surveillance, shall be failure to meet the LCO." This changes the CTS by adding the clarification, "whether such failure is experienced during the performance of the Surveillance or between performances of the Surveillance."
This change is acceptable because it is consistent with the current use and application of the Technical Specifications and with previous NRC guidance. This change is designated as administrative because it clarifies the Technical Specifications with no change in intent.
CTS 4.0.3 which states in pail, "Failure to perform a Surveillance Requirement within the allowed surveillance interval, defined by Specification 4.0.2, shall constitute noncompliance with the operability requirements for a Limiting Condition for Operation." This information is moved from CTS 4.0.3 to ITS SR 3.0. 1. ITS SR 3.0.1 states, "Failure to perform a Surveillance within the specified Frequency shall be failure to meet the LCO except as provided in SR 3.0.3."
This change is acceptable and is designated as administrative because moves information within the Technical Specifications with no change in intent. The reference to SR 3.0.3 is editorial and any technical changes resulting from SR 3.0.3 are discussed in another DOCs.
0 CTS 4.0.3 states, in part, "Surveillance requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment." ITS SR 3.0.1 states, "Surveillances do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment or variables outside specified limits." This changes the CTS by including "variables within limits" in recognition that not all Surveillances test equipment, but may test variables such as boron concentration, power distribution factors, temperatures, and pressures. This does not change the current use and application of the statement in CTS 4.0.3.
This change is acceptable and is designated as administrative because moves and clarifies information within the Technical Specifications with no change in intent.

ITS SR 3.0.2 states, "The specified Frequency for each SR is met if the Surveillance is performed within 1.25 times the interval specified in the Frequency, as measured firom the previous performance or as measured from the time a specified condition of the Frequency is met. For Frequencies specified as 'once,' the above interval extension does not apply. If a Completion Time requires periodic performance on a 'once per...' basis, the above Frequency extension applies to each performance after the initial performance.
Exceptions to this Specification are stated in the individual Specifications." This results in several changes to the CTS.
ITS SR 3.0.2 adds to the CTS, "For Frequencies specified as 'once,' the above interval extension does not apply. This is described in DOC M.2.
ITS SR 3.0.2 adds to the CTS, "if a Completion Time requires periodic performance on a 'once per...' basis, the above Frequency extension applies to each performance after the initial performance." This is described in DOC L.5.
ITS SR 3.0.2 is more specific regarding the start of the Frequency by stating, "as measured from the previous performance or as measured from the time a specified condition of the Frequency is met." This direction is consistent with the current use and application of the Technical Specifications.
This change is acceptable because the ITS presentation has the same intent as the CTS requirement.
ITS SR 3.0.2 adds to the CTS, "Exceptions to this Specification are stated in the individual Specifications."
This change is acceptable because it reflects practices used in the ITS that are not used in the.CTS. Any changes to a specification, by inclusion of such an exception, will be addressed in the affected specification.
The changes are designated as administrative because they reflect presentation and usage rules of the ITS without making technical changes to the Technical Specifications.

ITS 3.0.3 states that if it is discovered that a Surveillance was not performed within its specified Frequency, then compliance with the requirement to declare the LCO not met may be delayed, from the time of discovery, up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or up to the limit of the specified Frequency, whichever is greater. This delay period is permitted to allow performance of the Surveillance. If the Surveillance is not performed within the delay period, the LCO must immediately be declared not met, and the applicable Condition(s) must be entered. When the Surveillance is performed within the delay period and the Surveillance is not met, the LCO must immediately be declared not met, and the applicable Condition(s) must be entered. This adds to the CTS that this delay period is permitted to allow performance of the Surveillance and that if the Surveillance is not performed within the delay period, the LCO must immediately be declared not met, and the applicable Condition(s) must be entered. When the Surveillance is performed within the delay period and the Surveillance is not met, the LCO must immediately be declared not met, and the applicable Condition(s) must be entered. Changes to the time allowed to perform the missed Surveillance are described in DOC L.6.
This change is acceptable because this additional information does not change the current intent or application of CTS 4.0.3. It is understood that CTS 4.0.3 requires that the appropriate ACTIONS be taken if the SR is not performed during the time allowed by CTS 4.0.3 or if the SR is performed but fails. This change is designated as administrative because the added detail is consistent with the current intent and application of the Technical Specifications.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.0 A.12 CTS 4.0.4 restricts entry into MODES or other conditions specified in the Applicability unless the SR 3.0.4 4.0.4 applicable SRs have been successfully performed. ITS SR 3.0.4 contains tile same restriction, but adds an allowance that, "This provision shall not prevent entry into MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability that are required to comply with ACTIONS or that are part of a shutdown of the unit."
This changes the CTS in two ways:
ITS SR 3.0.4 adds an allowance that failure to perform a Surveillance will not prevent entry into MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability that are required to comply with ACTIONS.
This change is acceptable because it is consistent with the current understanding and application of CTS 4.0.4 and is necessary to avoid a conflict between SR 3.0.4 and other Specifications.
ITS SR 3.0.4 adds an allowance that failure to perform a surveillance will not prevent entry into MODES or other specified conditions in the Applicability "that are part of a shutdown of the unit." ITS SR 3.0.4 is also only applicable in MODES 1, 2, 3 and 4. These changes are addressed in DOC L.4.
This change is designated as administrative because there is no change in the intent of CTS 4.0.4 and no additional flexibility granted.

ITS 3.1.1 provides SI)M requirements in MODE 2 with K,,, < 1.0 and MODES 3, 4, and 5. T'his changes the CTS by combining the SDM requirements for MODE 2 with K1t1 < 1.0 and MODES 3, 4, and 5. The change in Applicability for MODE I and MODE 2 with K~-> 1.0 are described in DOC A.3.
This change is acceptable because thie requirements have not changed. Combining the specifications is an editorial change. Any technical changes resulting from this combination aic discussed in other DOCs.
This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the specification.
CTS 3.1. 1.1 provides SHUTDOWN MARGIN (SDM) requiremCnts in MODES I, 2, 3 and 4.
Surveillance 4.1.1. 1..b states that when in MODES I and 2 with K,,II - 1.0, SDM is verified hy verifying that the control banks are within the insertion requirements of CTI'S 3.1.3.6, Control Rod Insertion Limits.
ITS 3. 1.1 is Applicable in MODE 2 with K-ff < 1.0 and MODES 3, 4, and 5. ITS 3.1.5 contains the control bank insertion requirements. This changes tei CTS by dividing the SI)M requirements and placing those applicable in MODE 2 with K,jf < 1.0 Ak/k and MODES 3, 4, and 5 in ITS 3. 1.1 and placing those applicable in MODE I and MODE 2 with K,, > 1.0 in the control bank specif'ications.
The purpose of CTS 3. I. I.1 is to ensure that the SDM assumed in the accident analyses is availablc.
When the reactor is critical, SDM is verilied by ensuring that the control rods are above the rod insertion limits. The Applicability Bases to ITS 3. 1.1 states that in MODES I and 2, SDM is ensured by complying with LCO 3.1.5, Shutdown Bank Insertion Limits" and LCO 3.1.6, "Control Bank Insertion Limits." This change is acceptable because the SDM requirements have not changed. Even though CTS 3.1. I. I is applicable in MODES I and 2, the CTS Surveillances state that it is veriflied by meeting the rod insertion limits. The ITS also veriflies SDM in MODES I and 2 via the rod insertion limits. Any changes to the rod insertion limit requirements will be discussed in I)OCs for those specifications. This change is dcsignated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the speci'ication.

- 3. 1.1 A.4 The Applicability of CTS 3. 1. 1.1 is MODES I, 2, 3, and 4 with a footnote stating, "See Special Test None 3.I.I.I Exception 3. 10. 1I." ITS 3.1. I Applicability does not contain the loolnote or a itrelerence to the Special Test Exception.
The purpose of the footnote relcrence is to alert the reader that a Special T'est Exception exists which may niodi fy tile Applicability of the specification. It is an ITS convention t0 not include these types of Footnotes or cross-references. This change is designated as administrative.is it incorporates an ITS convention with no technical change to the Technical-Specifications.
3.1.2 A. I In tile conversion of tile North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specil'ic None Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording prelcrences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with N URF, G-143 I, Rev. I, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they (10 not result in technical changes to tile CTS.
3.1.2 A.2 CTS Surveillance 4.1.1.1.2 requires the overall core rcactivity balance be compared to predicted values 3.1.2
- 4. I I. 1..2 to demonstrate agreement within +/- I IX Ak/k. ITS LCO 3.1.2 rCquil'cs the measured Core reactivity to be within +/- I% Ak/k of predicted values. This changes the CTS by replacing the Surveillance requirement with an LCO.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. Converting the requirement IFron a Surveillance in the SHUTDOWN MARGIN specification to an LCO is consistent with tile ITS lormat and content guidance. Any technical changed resulting fi'or this cnange arc discussed in other l)OCs.
This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a tc'hnical change to the specification.
3.1.3 A. I In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CT'S) to the plant specific None Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with 1,UR, EG-143 1, Rev. 1, "Standard Technical Speci fications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and arc acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.1.3 A.2 CTS 3.1.1.4 states that the maximum MTC upper limit shall be < 0.6 x 10-4 Ak/k/°F below 70% RT7 P and 3.1.3 3.1.1.4
< 0.0 x 10' Ak/k/P/F at or above 70% RTP. ITS 3.1.3 states that the maximum MTC upper limit shall be
- 50.6 x 104 Ak/k/IF when < 70% RTP, and
- 0.0 Ak/k/0F when > 701k RTlp. This changes the CTS by designating the maximum MTC upper limit at > 70% RTP as 0.0 Ak/k/0F instead of ().0 x 10'- Ak/k/l:.
This change is acceptable because tile requirements have not changed. The llaxillt, mlUpper linlit for MTC when 2! 70% RTP is zero. Presenting tile limit as 0.0 instead of'0.0 x 10 "* is less confusing and]
consistent with how similar valves are presented in tile ITS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the specification.
3.1.3 A.3 The Applicability or cTS 3.1. 1.4 is modified by a footnote, designated "#", stating, "See Special Test None 3 I. 1.4 Exception 3.10.3." ITS 3.1.3 Applicability does not contain the footnote or a relb'rence to the Special Test Exception.
The purpose of the frootnote reference is to alert the reader that a Special Test Exception exists which may modify the Applicability of the specification. It is an ITS convention to not include these types Of footnotes or cross-references. This change is designated as administrative as it incorporates an ITS convention with no technical change to the Technical Specifications.

iA CTS 3. I. 1.4 refers to the Beginning of Cycle (BOC) MTC limit and the lEnd of Cycle (EOC) MTC limit.
ITS 3.1.3 refers to thesc values as the upper MTC limit and lower MTC Itnii, respecCtIrcly.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. The BOC MTC value is the most positive, upper limit and the EOC MTC value is the most negative, lower limit. The terminology used in the ITS is an editorial preference selected folr consistency with that used in NUREG-143 1. This change is designated as administrative as it incorporates an ITS convention with no technical change to the Technical Specifications.

This changes the CTS by requiring the plant to be in MODE 2 with Knff < 1.0 instead of HOTF SHUTDOWN (i.e.; MODE 3).
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. Inl accordance with CTS LCO 3.0. 1, Actions are only required to be followed while in the mode of applicability. The CTS upper MTC limit is applicable in MODES I and 2 with Kdi Ž 1.0. Therefore, under the CTS, tlhe unit does not have to enter MODE 3 because the applicability of the action ends when in MOI)E 2 with Kir < 1.0. As a result, there is no difference between the CTS and ITS requirements. This change is designated as h,i,,fd oe

I demand position by more than the alignment requirements, POWER OPERATION may continue "provided that within one hour, the rod is restored to OPERABLE status within the above alignment limits, or other compensatory measures described in tile specification are taken. ITS 3.1.4 does not contain a Required Action stating that the rod must be restored to OPERABLE status within tihe alignment limits.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements have not changed. Restoration of compliance with tile LCO is always an available Required Action and it is the convention ini the ITS to not state such "restore" options explicitly unless it is thie only action or is required for clarity. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes 1o the specifications.
3.1.4 A.4 CTS 3.1.3. I, Action c.2.c, states that with a maximum of one rod misaligned h'om the group step counter None 3.1.3. I, Action demand position by more than the alignment requirements, POWER OPERATION may continue c.2.e provided that the remainder of the rods in tile group are aligned to within +/- !2 steps of the misaligned rod within I hour while maintaining the thermal power, rod sequence, and insertion limits of Specification 3.1.3.6 during subsequent operation. H'S 3.1.4 does not contain a Required Action stating that tihe remainder of the rods in the group must be aligned with the misaligned rod.
This change is acceptable because the technical requiremenls have not changed. Moving the remainder of the rods in a group to within the LCO limit of the misaligned rod while maintaining compliance with all other rod position requirements is simply restoring compliance with the LCO. Restoration of compliance with the LCO is always an available Required Action and it is the convention in the ITS to not state such "restore" options explicitly unless it is the only action or is required for clarity. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to tihe stpeci fications.
3.1.4 A.5 CTS 3. 1.3.4, Action a, states that with the iod drop time of any full length rod determined to exceed tile None 3.1.3.4, Action a rod drop time limit, restore tile rod drop time to within limit prior to proceeding to MOD)E I or 2. CTS 3.1.3.4 is applicable in MODES I and 2. The ITS does not have a similar requirement.
CTS 4.0.4 and ITS SR 3.0.4 require verification that Surveillances are met prior 0o entering the MODE in which they apply. CTS 4.0.4 and ITS SR 3.0.4 also prohibit entering a MOI)E or condition with the Surveillance not met and while relying on Actions. Therefore, the Action prohibiting entry into MODES I and 2 with the rod drop time requirements not met is redundant to CTS 4.0.4 and ITS SR 3.0.4. This change is acceptable because the technical requirements have not changed. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the speciflicatiog._;.

The ITS does not contain similar restrictions.
This change is acceptable because operation in MODES I and 2 is prohibited with less than three reactor coolant loops in operation. Therefore, the options in this Action cannot be used. This change is designated as administrative as a provision of tile CTS which cannot be used is eliminated CTS 4. 1.1. I. I.a and 4.

This duplicates the requirements in CTS 3.1.3.1, Action c.2 and Action c.2.b and is eliminated. CTS 4. I. I. I.1.a and 4.1.1.2.a also state that if the inoperable control rod is immovable or untrippable, the SHUTDOWN MARGIN shall be increased by the amount at least equal to the withdrawn worth of the immovable or untrippable control rod(s). The ITS def(inition of"SHUTDOWN MARGIN" states, "With any RCCA not capable of being fully inserted, the reactivity worth of lthe RCCA must be accounted for in the determination of SDM." This changes the CTS by eliminating duplicated requirements and moving information f'rom the Speci fications to the Idel in1ilIons.
This change is acceptable because tile requirements have not changed. The elimination of duplicated requirements does not affect the technical requirements of the specifications. Moving inlformation from thie specifications to the definitions does not affect the technical requirements of the specifications. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the specifications.
In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Speciflications (CTS) to the plant speciflic Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preFe'rences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1431, Rev.

ITS 3.1.5, Condition B, states, in part, "One shutdown bank inserted < 18 steps below the insertion limit and immovable." This changes the CTS by eliminating the qualification, "during surveillance testing pursuant to Specification 4.1.3.1.2" and immovable "due to malfunctions in the rod control system."
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. The shutdown banks are rcquirecd to be fully withdrawn in the MODES in which the specification is applicable. The only time the shutdown banks are inserted while in the applicable MODES is during performance ol 'the rod 'reedom test, CTS Surveillance 4.1.3.1.2. Therefore, stating that the malfunction otXi1Trrcd during that test is unnecessary. Further, ITS LCO 3.1.5 is not applicable during the rod freedom test, ITS SR 3. 1.4.2, under the ITS 3.1.5 Applicability Note. Referencing the SR within the specification would be confusing. The qualification that a bank is immovable "due to malfunctions in the rod control system" is unnecessary.

This changes the CTS by moving the qualifications, "during surveillance testing pursuant to Specification 4.1.3.1.2" to an Applicability Note.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. The only time the control banks are inserted below the insertion limits while in the applicable MODES is during performance of'the rod freedom test, CTS Surveillance 4.1.3.1.2. Therefore, stating that the malfunction occurred during that test is unnecessary. Further, ITS LCO 3.1.6 is not applicable during the rod frecdonm test, ITS SR 3.1.4.2, under the ITS 3.1.6 Applicability Note. Referencing the SR within the specification would be confusing.

ITS 3.1.6, Condition C, states, in part, "One control bank inserted < 1 8 steps below the insertion limit and immovable AND each control and shutdown bank within the limits ol LCO 3.1.4."
ITS LCO 3.1.4 requires that all shutdown and control banks be OPERABLE (which is defined as "trippable,") and individual indicated rod positions be within 12 steps or the'ir group step counter (lemand position. This changes the CTS by substituting a reference to LCO 3.1.4 for the explicit requirements in the CTS action.

This changes the CTS by eliminating the explicit statement that compliance with the LCO can be restored in order to exit the Action.
This change is acceptable because the rcquirements have not changed. Reducing THERMAL. POWER so that the insertion limits, which are a function of power, are lowered and the contnrol hank inserted below the insertion limits comes within tile limit is the same as the CTS Action a.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requircment 3.1.7 A.2 CTS Action a., a.2, and b.2 require veriFication that the requirements of CTS 3.1.3. I arc satisfied. CTS None 3.1.3 I, Action a. 1, 3.1.3. I is equivalent to ITS LCO 3.1.4. The ITS does not contain a requirement in ITS 3.1.7 to verily a.2, and h.2 that ITS LCO 3.1.5 is satisfied.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. CTS specification 3.1.3.1 applies and its Actions must be followed whenever the LCO is not met. Cross-'cfcrencing between specifications is inconsistent with the ITS conventions and does not create, modify, or eliminate requirements.
Specifications apply in their Applicabilities, as described in ITS LCO 3.0. 1, whether or not a cross reference exists. Therefore, elimination of the cross-referencing does not result in a technical change to the specifications. This change is designated as administrative because the technical requirements have not changed.
3.1.7 A.3 ITS 3.1.7 Actions are modiflicd by a Note which states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each 3.1.7 Actions None inoperable rod position indicator and each demand position indicator." The CTS doe4 not have a similar Note statement.
This change is acceptable because the technical requircments have not changed. The CTS Actions are worded such that separate condition entry can be made. It is the ITS convention to include a Note like the one modifying the ITS 3.1.7 Actions in this condition. This change is designated as administrative because the technical requirements have not changed.

It contains the statement, "If either the one hour period or the +/- 24 step limit is exceeded, immediately declare the individual rod position indicator channel inoperable." The ITS does not contain a similar statement.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements have not changed. I Ihic rod position is outside the +/- 12 step tolerance given in the CTS LCO and ITS SR 3.1.7.1 and the conditions allowing the wider 24 steps tolerance are not met, and the rod position indication is inoperable. It is unnecessary to state that the rod position indicator must be declared inoperable as the normal Use and Applicability rules require the rod position indicator to be declarcd inoperable if the Surveillance is not met. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the speci fications.

ITS LCO 3.1.4 stales, "All shutdown and control rods shall be OPERABLE AND individual indicated rod positions shall be within 12 steps of their group step counter demand position." ITS LCO 3.1.4 is modified by a Note which states, "Whenl THERMAL POWER is

This NOTE is not applicable For control rods known to be imeater than 12 steps from the rod group step counter demand position." This changes the CTS by moving the requircment that the RPI indicate within 12 or 24 steps of the actual position to LCO 3.1.4.
This change is acceptable because the techMical requirements have not chaned. Both the CTS and the ITS,'equires the RPI system to indicate the rod position within 12 steps. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the specifications.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.1.8 A.2 CTS 3.1.1.3.2 states, "The following valves shall be locked, scaled or otherwise secured in the closed LCO 3.1.8 Note, 3.1.1.3.2 position except during planned boron dilution or makeup activities." ITS LCO 3.1.8 states, "Each valvc SR 3.1.8. I used to isolate primary grade water flow paths shall be secured in the closed position." A Note to the LCO states, "Primary grade water Ilow path isolation valves may be opened under administrative control lor planned boron dilution or makeup activities." ITS SR 3.1.8. I states, "Verifly each valve that isolatcs primary grade water flow paths is locked, sealcd, or otherwise secured in the closed position."
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements have not changed. In the ITS, requirements that valves be locked, scaled, or otherwise secured are located in ihc Surveillances, not the LCO. Under SR 3.0. I, the SRs provide requirements necessary to meet the LCO. Thereffore,Moving the rcquirement from the LCO to the SR has no effect on tile application of the requirements.
'lMe addition of the plhrase "undcr administrative control" to the LCO Note is consistent with the ITS conventions and does not change the application of the Note. This change is designatcd as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the specifications,.
3.1.8 A.3 CTS 3.1.1.3.2 is applicable in MODES 3, 4, 5 and 6. The CTS Action states that with the valves not None 3.1.1.3.2 locked, scaled, or otherwisc secured in the closed position, suspend CORE Al.I'ERA-. iIONS. ITS 3.1.8 is applicable in MODES 3, 4, ind] 5 and does not contain (his Action.
This change is acceptable because CORE ALTERATIONS cannot occur in MOI)ES 3, 4, or 5. ITS 3.9.2 provides similar requirements on primary grade watcr flow path in MODE (' and thaIt speci ication will address Actions in that MODE. Any technical changes in the Actions in MOI)E 6 will he addressed in the DOCs for that specification. This change is designated as administrative because it divides Actions according the applicable MODE with no technical change to the specilications.

3.1.9 A.2 3.1.9 A.3 CTS 3.10.3 states that the limitations of Speci fication 3.1.1.4, 3.1.3. I, 3.1.3.5, and 3.1.3.6 may be suspended during the peforlmance of PHYSICS TESTS providcd the Reactor Trip Setpoints on the OPERABLE Intermediatc and Power Range Channels are set < 35% and < 25% of RATED THERMAL POWER, respectively. Other requirements are also iniposcd. ITS 3.1.9 states that the requirement of LCO 3.1.3, LCO 3.1.4, LCO 3.1.5, LCO 3.1.6, and LCO 3.4.2 may be suspended, but contains no requirements on ihe Intermediate and Power Range Channels. The ITS contains the same requirements on the Intermediate and Power Range Channels in ITS LCO 3.3. I. This changes the CTS by eliminating tile rcquircment that the Reactor Trip Setpoints on the OPERABLE Intermediate and Power Range Channels are set < 35% and < 25% of RATED THERMAL POWER, respectivwly, from the test exception.
This change is acceptable because the Reactor Trip Setpoints on the OPEIRABI.E Intermediate and Power Range Channels are contained in LCO 3.3. I, RTS Instrumentation. Repeating that requircment in the test exception LCO is unnecessary. This change is designated administrative as it eliminates a repeated Icceuirement from the CTS, resulting in no technical change to the lechnical Specifications.
CTS 3.10.3 is applicable in MODE 2. ITS 3.1.9 is applicable, "During PHYSICS TESTS initiatcd in MODE 2."
The purpose of the ITS 3.1.9 Applicability is to ensure that the Actions contained in the spccification are followed. The wording of CTS 3.10.3 appcars to bc contradictory because when THERZMAL POWER exceeds 5%, the test exception specification applicability is exited and the Actions no longer apply.
However, it is clear that tile CTS 3.10.3 Action should be applied if THERMAL POWER excecd 5Y.
'The ITS Applicability eliminates this apparent contradiction and allows the test exception Conditions and Required Actions to be applied when the LCO is not met. This is consistent with the wording of the CTS Action. This change is designated as administrative because it clarifies the current wording ol the specification with no change in intent.

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.2.1 A.2 CTS 3.2.2 provides tile limit for FQ(Z). The LCO provides two equations, which give the leQ(Z) limit for None 3.2.2 power > 50% RTP and power 50% RTP. ITS 3.2. 1 does not contain these equations.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements have not changed. CTS Surveillance 4.2.2.2 states "FQM(Z) shall be evaluated to determining if FQ(Z) is within limit by:... c. Satisfying the following relationship" and provides two equations. These equations for FQM(Z) are always more limiting than the equations presented in the LCO. Under CTS 4.0.1 and ITS SR 3.0. 1, failure to mcet the SR results in failure to meet the LCO. Therefore, the equations presented in the l.CO are never limiting.
In the ITS, the equations presented in the CTS Surveillance 4.2.2.2 are used to establish the LCO limit.
This change is designated as administrative because it eliminates information from1 the CTS that is not used.
3.2. 1 A.3 CTS 3.2.2 provides a limit For FQ(Z). The Actions for CTS 3.2.2 apply when FQ(Z) excecds its limit.
3.2. I 3.2.2 ITS 3.2.1 states, "FQ(Z), as approximated by FQM(Z), shall be within the limit specified in the COLR."
The ITS Condition is, "EQM(Z) not within limit." ITS SR 3.2. 1. I requires verification that FQM(Z) is within its limit. This changes the CTS by stating tile limited value as 1QM(Z) instead of FQ(Z).
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. CTIS SR 4.2.2.2, which is used to determine if FQ(Z) is within its limit, is written in terms of the mcasured FQ(Z), given as FQM(Z). The value used to determine if FQ(Z) is within its limit in CTS SR 4.2.2.2.c is FQM(Z). Therefore, the ITS use of FQM(Z) is consistent with the CTS limits. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the specifications.

<,5CTS Rlequirement 1 None CTS 4.2.2.1 states, "The provisions of Specification 4.0.4 are not applicable." The ITS does not include this statement.
The purpose of a Specification 4.0.4 exception is to allow the plant to cntcr the MODE of applicability without performing the required Surveillances. This change is acceptable because the CTS Specification 4.0.4 exception is not used. CTS 4.2.2.2 is modified by a Note which states, "During power escalation, the power level may be increased until a power level for extended operation has been achieved and a power distribution map obtained." Therefore, the CTS Surveillance Note provides the allowance to enter MODE I and increase power without performing the Surveillance. This serves the same purpose as the Specification 4.0.4 exception. The ITS does not need the exception because ITS Surveillance 3.2. 1.1 contains the same Note as the CTS Surveillance. This change is designated as administrative because it eliminates a CTS provision which is not used.

I OPERATION may proceed provided that FNA1H is demonstrated through in-core mapping to be within its limit. ITS 3.2.2, Action A, states that SR 3.2.2. I shall be performcd. SR 3.2.2. I requires measurement of FNAH. This changes the CTS by eliminating the statement that tie cause of the out of limit condition must be identified and corrected prior to increasing power and the stalement that FNAH must be demonstrated through incore mapping.
This change is acceptable because the requircmcnts have not changed. Stating that the cause of" the FNAH liimit violation must be identified and corrected prior to increasing power (i.e., exiting the Action which required power reduction) is unnecessary. Restoration of compliancc with thie LCO is always an option alid allows exiting the Action per ITS 3.0.2. Therefore, it does not have to be stated. Stating that FNAH must be measured with the incore mapping system is unnecessary, as FNAH can only be measured with the incore mapping system. Therefore, stating that FNAH must be measuied (by invoking SR 3.2.2. I) means that the incore mapping system must be used. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the specifications.;.
3.2.2 A.3 CTS 3.2.3, Action c, states that with FNA1-exceeding its limit, FNAI-I Must he measured prior to 3.2.2, Action A.4 3.2.2, Action c exceeding 50% RTP, 75% RTP, and within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of exceeding 95% RT!-"[ ITS 3.2.2, Action A.4, contains the same requirements. ITS 3.2.2, Action A.4, is modified by a Note which states, "THERMAL POWER does not have to be reduced to comply with this Required Action." This modifies the CCTS by adding a Note stating that THERMAL POWER does not have to be reduced to comply with the Action.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. The Note is included in tilhe ]ITS tC make clear that THERMAL POWER does not have to be reduced to perform the Action. For example, itf FNAH exceeded its limit and power was reduced to 60% RTP before FNAH is lenionstrated to be within its limit, under the Note THERMAL IPOWER does not have to be reduced ]to less than 50% RTP for a FNAH measurement. FNAH must be measured prior to exceeding 75% RTP and within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of exceeding 95% RTP. The Condition A is needed because the ITS contains a Note on lITS 3.2.3, Condition A, which states, "Rcquired Actions A.3 and A.4 must be completed whenever Condition A is entered." The Condition A Note does not exist in the CTS and could be construed as requiring THERMAL POWER to be reduced to comply with Action A.4. The Condition A Note is described in DOC M. I. As a result, the Action A.4 Note makes the ITS and CTS actions con.sistent. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the speccifications.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requiremcnt 3.2.2 A.4 CTS 4.2.3.1 states that FNAH shall be determined to be within its limit by using the moveable incore SR 3.2.2.1 4.2.3.1 detectors to obtain a power distribution map. ITS SR 3.2.2. I states that FNAH shall le verified to be within the limits specified in the COLR. This changes the CTS by eliminating Ihe statement that FNAH must be determined by using the moveable incore detector system to obtain a power distribution map.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. Stating that FNAH must be measured by using the incore mapping system to obtain a power distribution map is unnecessary, as FNAH can only be measured with the incore mapping system to create a power distribution map.
Therefore, eliminating a statement of the method that must be used to measure FNAIH does not change the specifications. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the specifications.
3.2.2 A.5 CTS 4.2.3. L.c states, "The provisions of Specification 4.0.4 are nol applicable." The ITS does not None 4.2.3.1 include this statement.
The purpose of a Specification 4.0.4 exception is to allow the plant to enter the MODE of applicability without performing the required Surveillances. This change is acceptablC because the CTS Specification 4.0.4 exception is not required in the ITS. CTS 4.2.3.1 is required to be pcrformcd prior to operation above 75% RTP after each fuel loading and once per 31I EFPD. Without the SR 4.0.4 exception, MODE I could not be entered without a measurement because tlie "once per 3 I ElFPD" Frequency would he violated under SR 4.0.4 because Surveillances must be met prior to cntcring the MODIl ol'applicability.
However, under the ITS, the Frequency "Once after each refueling prior to THERMvAl. POWER exceeding 75% RTP AND 31 EFPD thereafter," means that the 31I EI-PD Frequency does not apply until after the 75% RTP measurement is performed. Therefore, the appiicability of the SR is changed and MODE I can be entered without the SR being met. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the specifications.

Condition A, states that with AFD not within limits, reduce THERMAL POWER to less than 50% within 30 minutes. This changes the CTS by eliminating the action to restore AFD within its limit within 15 minutes.
This change is acceptable because the technical rcquirenmnts havc not chang.cd. If AFD is not restored to within its limit within 15 minutes, no CTS Actions apply except to reduce powcr to less than 50% RTP within 30 minutes. Therefore, the action to restore AFD to within its limit wilhin 15 minutes contains no requirement to take action. Both the CTS and the ITS require power to tie reduced to less than 50% R'I'P within 30 minutes if APD is not restored to within its limit.

ITS 3.2.3 does not contain a similar requirement. This changes the CTS by eliminating a prohibition in the CTS.
This change is acceptable because the rcquircmcnts have not changed. CTS 3.0.4 and ITS LCO 3.0.4 prohibit entering the MODE of applicability of a specification unless t0Ie requir'ements of the LCO are met. CTS 3.2.1 and ITS 3.2.3 are applicable in MODE I with THERMAL POWER 50%. Therefore, the Use and Application rules in the CTS and thc ITS prohibit exceeding 50% ol RATED THERMAL POWER without tile LCO reqtuirements met. CTS 3.2.1, Action b, is duplicativý of C'I'S 3.0.4 and ITS LCO 3.0.4 and its elimination does not make a technical change to the spcci;fications.

A Note is added to ITS 3.3.1 Actions, which states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each Function." This modifies the CTS by providing a specific allowance to enter each Function separately.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3,1 A.5 CTS Table 3.3-I provides the requirements for each RTS instrumentation function. The table Table 3.3.1 -1 Table 3.3-1, lists "FUNCTIONAL UNIT", "TOTAL NUMBER OF CHANNELS," "CHANNELS TO TRIP,"
Table 4.3-1 "MINIMUM CHANNELS OPERABLE," "APPLICABLE MODES," and "ACTIONS" columns.
CTS Table 4.3-1 lists the surveillance requirements for each RTS function including a column labeled "MODES IN WHICH SURVEILLANCE REQUIRED," that specifies the applicability for each function. ITS 'Fable 3.3.1-1 is constructed from the requirements of the CTS Tables with modifications. ITS Table 3.3.1-1 lists the columns as, "FUNCTION," "APPLICABLE MODES OR OTHER SPECIFIED CONDITIONS-," "REQUIRED CHANNELS,"
"CONDITIONS," "SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS," and "ALLOWABLE VALUE." The elimination of "CHANNELS TO TRIP" and "MINIMUM CHANNELS OPERABLE" columns is addressed in DOC LA. 15. This change modifies the CTS Tables by changing the names of columns and deleting the Table 4.3-1 column labeled "MODES IN WHICH SURVEILLANCE REQUIRED."
This change is acceptable because it maintains the technical requirements of the CTS with the conversion to the ITS requirements. The "REQUIRED CHANNELS" column incorporates the channel requirements of the instrumentation function provided by the CTS by the "TOTAL NUMBER OF CHANNELS" column in the ITS. The CTS "ACTIONS" become the ITS "CONDITIONS". The "APPLICABLE MODES" column of CTS is changed to the column labeled, "Applicable MODES or other specified conditions" of the ITS. The column in Table 4.3 I labeled, "MODES IN WHICH SURVEILLANCE REQUIRED," is not required because it is redundant to CTS Table 3.3-I "APPLICABLE MODE" column. A separate DOC addresses any technical change to Tables 3.3-I and 4.3-I requirements if there is a technical difference from the CTS to the ITS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS requirements.
3.3.1 A.6 CTS 2.2. I in Table 2.2-I lists various notes for the Allowable Values associated with the None
'Fable 2.2-I operation of the unit until steam generator replacement or 2-loop operation. The steam generators have been replaced and 2-loop operation has never been licensed. Therefore, these notes do not provide any technical requirements and are eliminated.
This change is acceptable because no CTS or ITS RTS function relies upon these notes to ensure proper operation or safety of the plant. With the deletion, no technical requirements of the CTS are changed. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.1 A.7 CTS Surveillance Requirement 4.3.1.1.2 states, in part, that the RTS Response Time of each trip 3.3.1.16 4.3.1.1.2, function shall be demonstrated to be within its limit at least on per 18 months. The requirement Table 4.3-I specifies that each test shall include at least one logic train such that both logic trains are tested at least once per 36 months and one channel per function such that all channels are tested at least once every N times 18 months where N is the total number of redundant channels in a specific reactor trip function as shown in the "Total No. of Channels" column of Table 3.3-I. A column added to CTS Table 4.3-1 addresses each function, and which the RESPONSE TIME testing requirement is applicable. The RESPONSE TIME requirements reflect the channel requirements contained in the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) Section 6.2. This does not modify the CTS requirements, but provides clarification. ITS SR 3.3.1.16 requires the verification of RTS RESPONSE TIMES be with limits every 18 months on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The ITS definition of STAGGERED TEST BASIS is consistent with the CTS testing Frequency. This changes the CTS by utilizing the ITS definition of STAGGERED TEST BASIS.
This change is acceptable because the requirements for RESPONSE TIMES testing for the RTS channels remain unchanged. ITS definition for STAGGERED TEST BASIS and its application in this requirement do not change the current testing frequency requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.3.1 A.8 CTS Table 3.3-1 for the RTS Functions does not list Action I I to be entered for an inoperable None Table 3.3-I, Action channel. ITS 3.3.1 does not convert the Action to an ITS Condition for any of the required RTS I I Functions. This changes the CTS by eliminating Action 11.
This change is acceptable because no CTS or ITS RTS function relies upon the compensatory measures of Action 11 to ensure proper operation or safety of the plant. With the deletion, no technical requirements of the CTS are changed. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

1______
North Anna Power Station CTS Surveillance Requirements (SRs) for the Intermediate Range channels in Table 4.3-1 list a CHANNEL CHECK at a frequency of Q (12) for the MODES 3*, 4*, and 5* applicability.
The SRs listed for the Intermediate Range channels with the applicability in MODES I and 2 require the performance of a CHANNEL CHECK at a frequency of each shift (S), a CHANNEL CALIBRATION at a refueling frequency (R (6,13)), and a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL FEST at the frequency of each startup (S/U (I)) and quarterly (Q (12)). CTS Table 3.3-1 requires the Intermediate Range channels to be OPERABLE in MODES I fl### and 2. The ### represents "Below the P-10 (Low Setpoint Power Range Neutron Flux Interlock) setpoint" for the applicability. CTS Action 3 must be entered for an inoperable channel. The applicability for Intermediate Range channels is set above the P-6 setpoint in Action 3 Part a. This states, "Below the P-6 setpoint, restore the inoperable channel to OPERABLE status prior to increasing THERMAL POWER above the P-6 setpoint." ITS 3.3.1 Function 4 Intermediate Range Neutron Flux channels lists the applicability as MODES I(b) and 2(c) and Conditions F and G must be entered for inoperable channel(s). Note (b) states, "Below the P-10 (Power Range Neutron Flux) interlocks," and Note (c) requires, "Above the P-6 (Intermediate Range Neutron Flux) interlocks." The surveillance requirements for these channels are SRs 3.3.1.1, 3.3.1.8, and 3.3.1.11. The change of the CTS applicability from MODE 2 to MODE 2(c) in DOC L.27. The change in applicability firom #PH to Note (b) maintains the technical requirement from the CTS to the ITS. This changes the CTS by clarifying the Q (12) CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST for MODES 3*, 4*, and 5*.
The change in applicability is acceptable because the Intermediate Range is only assumed in the safety analyses to be OPERABLE one decade above the overlap with the Source Ranges channels (P-6 setpoint) up to the overlap with the Power Range channels (P-10 setpoint). This is reflected in the CTS Action for the inoperability of a channel when it requires the unit to remain below P-6 until the inoperable channel is returned to OPERABLE status. The performance of the Surveillance Requirements ensure the Intermediate Range channels are maintained OPERABLE for the specified MODES. The deletion of the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST for MODES 3*, 4*, and 5* is acceptable because the Intermediate Range channels are not required to be OPERABLE in these MODES. ITS SR 3.3.1.8 must be met when the Intermediate Range channels are required to be OPERABLE. The applicability requirement in the CTS is maintained in the ITS by requiring the function's OPERABILITY below the P-10 setpoint. This change is designated as administrative because it corrects CTS Table 4.3-I requirements for performing testing to only include tests during the MODE for which the function is required to be OPERABLE. Therefore, this change is administrative because it does not result in changes to the CTS applicable surveillance requirements.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requtirement 3.3.1 A. 11 The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST (CFT) requirements in CTS Table 4.3-I have been Table 3.3.1 -1 Table 4.3-1 translated in ITS Table 3.3. 1-Ito the CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST (COT), TRIP ACTUATION DEVICE OPERATIONAL TEST (TADOT), or ACTUATION LOGIC TEST (ALT). The individual RTS functions will require a COT or TADOT to be performed with the exception of the trip actuation logic, which requires the ALT. Trip actuation devices (bistable or digital) such as manual switches or RCP breakers require a TADOT to be performed. The analog channels such as Pressurizer Pressure require a COT to be performed. Each SR Frequency is replaced with an ITS SR number that corresponds to the required testing at the current frequency.
The technical requirements and frequency of testing for each function will remain unchanged in the ITS requirements, unless noted and addressed by a separate discussion of change.
Tile change is acceptable because tile COT, ALT, and TADOT maintain the technical requirements of the CFT and more accurately describe the required testing for each RTS function. The CTS CFT is divided in two parts, one for the analog channels and the other the bistable channels. The COT requirements provide for the parameter monitoring channels and are consistent with the analog requirements. The COT requires the injection of simulated or actual signal into tile channel as close as practicable to the sensor to verify OPERABILITY of all devices associated with the channel. This includes adjustments, as necessary, of required alarms, interlocks, and trip setpoints within their necessary range and accuracy. The TADOT is defined in a similar manner for the trip actuation device. The TADOT requirements provide for a digital or bistable channel testing requirements of the CTS CFT requirements. The ALT verifies the OPERABILITY of the logic circuits and its required outputs. This type of testing is required in the CTS requirements by the monthly CFT for the Automatic Trip Logic. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS surveillance requirements.

Description of Change ITS Requiremlent CTS Requirement 3.3.1 A. 12 CTS 3.3.1.1 Actions denoted with a ' in Table 3.3-1 state that the provisions of Specification None Table 3.3-I, Action 3.0.4 are not applicable. The ITS does not contain this exception, but provides the same allowance in the requirements of LCO 3.0.4. This change modifies the CTS by eliminating the specific exception to Specification 3.0.4 and utilizing a generic exception described in LCO 3.0.4.
This change is acceptable because ITS LCO 3.0.4 states when an LCO is not met, entry into the applicable MODE may be made when the associated Actions permit continued operation for an unlimited period of time. The Actions modified by note # allow continued operation for an unlimited period of time. Therefore, eliminating the specific exceptions to CTS 3.0.4 is appropriate because the allowance is addressed in ITS LCO 3.0.4. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.3.1 A. 13 Not used.
N/A N/A 3.3.1 A. 14 CTS surveillance requirement in Table 4.3-1 for the SI input from ESF is stated as M (4). Note Table 3.3.1-I Table 4.3-1 (4) states the following "Manual ESF functional input check every 18 months." The monthly requirement is therefore only required to check the input from ESF on an 18 monthly firequency.
ITS 3.3.1 for function 17, SI input from ESF, requires SR 3.3.1.14 to be performed. This requirement performs a TADOT every 18 months. A Note modifies the requirement that specifies that verification ofsetpoint is not required. This change maintains the technical requirements of the CTS in ITS format.
This change is acceptable because the current requirement is only performed every 18 months to verify the SI input. No setpoint verification is required with the input from ESF and therefore, the Note modifying the SR does not change the technical intent from the CTS requirement. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change I ITS Requirement I CTS Requirement CTS 3.3.1.1 requirements for Functional Unit 6.C, Source Range Neutron Flux Shutdown, are stated in CTS Table 3.3-I. Tile total number of Source Range channels is listed as two, and the minimum channels OPERABLE is listed as one. Note 5 does not require any action unless no channels are OPERABLE. This requirement is applicable in MODES 3, 4, and 5 with the RTBs open. ITS 3.3.1 requirement for the Source Range Neutron Flux, Function 5, is stated in ITS Table 3.3.1-I, and lists the number of required channels as one. The Table lists the applicability or other specified conditions as MODES 3(e), 4(e), and 5(e). Note (e) states, "With the Rod Control System incapable of rod withdrawal. In this condition, source range Function does not provide reactor trip but does provide indication." This change maintains the CTS technical requirements for the number of OPERABLE Source Range channels. The addition of Note (e) is addressed in DOC L.29.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirements are maintained with the conversion to the ITS format. The ITS number of required Source Range channels is one, which is the same as the CTS requirement. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
CTS functions for the RTS Interlocks in Table 3.3.-I require Action 17 to be entered for an inoperable channel. Action 17 states with less than the Minimum Channels OPERABLE, within one hour verify that the interlocks are in the required state for plant conditions, or apply Specification 3.0.3. ITS function 18, the RTS interlocks list Conditions Q and R to be entered for an inoperable channel. Required Action Q.2 requires the unit to be placed in MODE 3 within 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />.

This changes the CTS from the LCO 3.0.3 statement to specific required actions to be performed.
This change is acceptable because the ITS Required Actions place the unit in a condition within the time allowed by CTS LCO 3.0.3 for each of the functional interlocks. Function P-6 and P-10 are required to be OPERABLE in MODE 2 therefore the required action places the unit into MODE 3 within 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />. Functions P-7, P-8, and P-13 are required to be OPERABLE in MODE 1, therefore the required action requires the unit to be placed in MODE 2 with 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Mismatch and Low SG Water Level functions have a required channel become inoperable. Each of the functions is required to be OPERABLE in MODES I and 2. Action 7 states that the inoperable channel must be placed in trip within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, and if this is not satisfied, the unit must be placed in HOT STANDBY in 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, HOT SHUTDOWN within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and COLD SHUTDOWN in the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />. ITS 3.3.1 for the Overtemperature, Overpower, Pressurizer Pressure - High, Steam Generator (SG) Water Level - Low Low, and SG Water Level Low coincident with Steam Flow /Feed Flow Mismatch requires each function to be OPERABLE in MODES I and 2 and requires Condition E to be entered for an inoperable channel. Condition E states with one inoperable channel, place tile channel in trip within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or be in MODE 3 within 78 hours9.027778e-4 days <br />0.0217 hours <br />1.289683e-4 weeks <br />2.9679e-5 months <br />. This changes the CTS by elimination the requirement to place the unit in HOT SHUTDOWN or COLD SHUTDOWN. Tile purpose of this change is appropriately direct the unit to a MODE of operation in which the functions are no longer required by tile safety analysis to perform their safety function.
This change is acceptable because the Condition's Required Actions direct the unit to be placed in an operating mode which the safety functions are no longer assumed by the safety analyses to provide protection. Each function is only required to be OPERABLE in MODES I and 2, therefore, upon entry into HOT STANDBY (MODE 3) each function is no longer required to be OPERABLE. Therefore, eliminating the requirement for the unit to be placed in HOT SHUTDOWN or COLD SHUTDOWN is not required or justified since each function is not required to perform its safety function in MODES 4 or 5. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to tile CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.1 A. 18 CTS 3.3.1.1 Functional Unit 21 B, Reactor Trip Bypass Breakers, states two channels are required 3.3. 1, ACTION P Table 3.3-I Action to be OPERABLE in the applicable MODES, as indicated by a Note *** and Action 13 is I
required to be entered, if a channel is inoperable. Note *** states, "With the Reactor Trip Breaker open for surveillance testing in accordance with Specification Table 4.3-1 (item 21 A)."
CTS Action 13 states that with an inoperable bypass breaker, the breaker must be restored to OPERABLE status within one hour, or the testing of the RTB must be terminated and the bypass breaker opened. CTS Action I for the RTB requirements (item 21 A) for an inoperable channel states, "With the number of channels OPERABLE one less than required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirements be in HOT STANDBY within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />." ITS Function 19 states two trains for the Reactor Trip Breakers (h) are required to be OPERABLE in MODES I and 2. Note (h) states, "Includes any reactor trip bypass breakers that are racked in and closed for bypassing an RTB." Condition P is required to be entered for an inoperable RTB train. ITS Required Action P.1I states, "Restore train to OPERABLE status," within one hour. The change to CTS Action I, with the addition of ITS Required Action P. 1, is addressed by DOC L. 13.
Required Action P.2 states, "OR Be in MODE 3," within 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />. This changes the CTS by including the requirement for the bypass breakers into the function for the RTB train and maintains the allowed outage time for an inoperable breaker.
This change is acceptable because including the bypass breaker into the ITS requirement for the RTBs does not change the technical requirements for the bypass breaker. In the CTS and ITS requirements if the bypass breaker becomes inoperable, that breaker must restored to OPERABLE status within one hour if it is relied upon as a substitute for the RTB. If the bypass breaker cannot be returned to OPERABLE the testing or maintenance of the RTB nmust be immediately suspended and the bypass breaker must be placed in the open position. In this condition with the RTB inoperable, the unit is required to be in MODE 3 in the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.
This CTS time allowance is maintained in the ITS. The RTB bypass breaker, in the ITS, is testqd prior to replacing the RTB, therefore, it is unlikely, that the RTB bypass will become inoperable while being substituted for the RTB. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.1 A.20 The requirements in CTS Table 3.3-I for the Reactor Trip System low power interlocks list Table 3.3. 1 -I Table 3.3-I function 23.B as P-7, comprised of three channels of P-b10 input or two channels of P-13 input.
These interlocks are required to be OPERABLE from the surveillance requirement 4.3.1.1.2, associated with CTS 3.3. 1. 1. The P-10 and P-13 interlocks are required to provide a signal at a specific indicated power level, from either the neutron detectors (P-I 0-Power Range Neutron Flux) channels, or power indication of the main turbine (P-13-turbine impulse chamber pressure) channels. The P-10 and P-13 function are required to actuate at a specific setpoint with a tolerance up to the allowable value. The P-7 interlock is derived from P-10 and P-13 functions and is a logic function only. ITS 3.3.1, Table 3.3.1-1, list the Reactor Trip System Interlocks as Function 18, and the P-7 function is Function I 8b. Function I18d and I 8e represent the P-10 and P-13 interlocks. P-10 and P-13 functions are required to actuate and provide its specific interlocks at a specific setpoint with an allowance up to an allowed value. The P-7 Function is not a channel related interlock, but functions on a train related basis; therefore, the channel requirements for P-7 are stated as, "I per train." Because the P-7 interlock is a logic function, there is no setpoint or allowable value limit associated with the function.
This change is acceptable because all technical requirements of the CTS are reflected in the ITS requirements. The requirements of ITS 3.3.1 Function 18 b for P-7 has not modified the CTS requirements, except only in format. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.1 A.21 CTS requirements for the Power Range Instrumentation channels are listed in Table 3.3-1. This Table 3.3. 1-1, Table 3.3-1, Table states four total channels are required in MODES I and 2 and Action 211 must be entered for an 3.3.1 ACTION F 2.2-1 inoperable channel. The Limiting Safety System Settings listed in CTS Table 2.2-I specifies for the Power Range Neutron Flux two trip setpoints and allowable values. These are divided into Low and High values. The P-10 interlock in CTS Table 3.3-I describes the requirements for enabling the Power Range Neutron Flux Low setpoint trip below the specified values. The ITS in Table 3.3.1-I states the Power Range Neutron Flux channels, functions 2a and 2b, are to be OPERABLE in two states, High and Low Neutron Flux, with four channels required to be OPERABLE. The functions are applicable in MODES I and 2 for the High and MODES 1(b) and 2 for the Low. For the Power Range Low function Action E is required to be entered.
Action E requires the channel to be placed in trip within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or be in MODE 3 within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. Note (b) states, "Below the P-10 (Power Range Neutron Flux) setpoint. This change maintains the technical requirements of the CTS as they are translated to the ITS format.
This change is acceptable because all technical requirements of the CTS are maintained by the conversion to the ITS. The ITS presentation of the CTS requirements only modifies the format and does not add or delete any technical requirements. The Power Range functions continue to require four channels to be OPERABLE in MODES I and 2, with the trip setpoints for High and Low Neutron Flux values required above and below the P-10 interlock. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

ITS Table 3.3.1-1 Function 16 Turbine Trip with Low Auto Stop Oil Pressure (16a) and Turbine Stop Valve Closure (16b) lists the applicable MODES as MODE I(g). Note (g) states, "Above the P-8 (Power Range Neutron Flux) interlock." The Table lists Condition N to be entered for an inoperable channel. Condition N states, "One Turbine Trip channel inoperable place the channel in trip," within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, or "Reduces power < P-8," within 76 hours8.796296e-4 days <br />0.0211 hours <br />1.256614e-4 weeks <br />2.8918e-5 months <br />.

The addition of this Note is addressed by DOC L.26. This changes the format of the CTS while maintaining the technical requirements.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements of the CTS for the required trips from the Turbine Trips are maintained in the ITS. Any technical changes are address in other discussion of changes in this section. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.3.1 A.23 CTS 3.3.1.1 for Functional Units 19, 21, and 22 lists the test requirements for the Safety Injection SR 3.3.1.4 Table 3.3-1 Note (SI) input to Engineered Safety Features (ESF), Reactor Trip Breakers (RTBs), and Automatic SR 3.3.1.5 (5)
Trip Logic. Each of these functions must be tested monthly. This Frequency is modified by Note (5), which states, "Each train or logic channel shall be tested at least every 62 days on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS (STB)." ITS notation for STB utilizes a definition that states the frequency as 3 1 days on a STB for the RTBs, Function 19, and the Automatic Trip Logic, Function 21. This change maintains the required testing frequency for each required safety function.
This change is acceptable because the testing of the functions will continued to be required at the same frequency. The CTS definition for STB requires all trains or channels to be tested within the allowed time stated by the Frequency. ITS definition for STB states that the Frequency listed is the time for one train or channel to be tested. Under the CTS Frequency for the listed functions, two trains must complete the required testing in 62 days. The ITS Frequency requirement for each of these functions requires a train to be tested every 31 days with both trains completed in 62 days. Therefore, the testing requirements in the CTS and ITS require the same frequency for each function. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

The S/U stands for prior to a reactor startup and Note (1) specifies "If not performed within the previous 31 days." Action 9 must be entered for an inoperable channel.

ITS Table 3.3.1-1 Function 16 Turbine Trip requires SR 3.3.1.15, a TADOT, to be performed. The Frequency for the SR states, "prior to exceeding the P-8 interlock whenever the unit has been in MODE 3, if not performed within the previous 31 days." A Note to the SR states, "Verification of setpoint is not required." This changes the CTS surveillance requirement frequency from startup, if not performed in the previous 3 1 days, to prior to exceeding P-8 setpoint whenever the unit has been in MODE 3, if not performed in the previous 31 days and specifically states that verification of the setpoint is not required.
This change is acceptable because the frequency of the required test continues to be performed in the same time period as required by the CTS. The ITS Frequency is set to be consistent with (he MODE of applicability for the Turbine Trip function. The intent of the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST in the CTS is to ensure that the turbine trip signal would generate a reactor trip signal. The CTS requirement for a CFT is satisfied by a turbine trip below the setpoint of P
- 8. This test produces lit annunciators in the main control room that signifies that the turbine trip would occur. This test corresponds to the ITS requirement of a Trip Actuation Device Operational Test (TADOT) without a setpoint verification which verifies that a turbine trip would occur. The ITS TADOT satisfies the technical requirements of the CTS CFT. Therefore, the addition of the ITS Note stating that no verification of setpoint is required is not a change in the requirement, but is provided for clarification.

Action I applies to Function 21 Reactor Trip Breakers. ITS Table 3.3.1 I-for function 19 requires Condition P to be entered for an inoperable train. Condition P requires with one RTB train inoperable, it must be restored to OPERABLE status or tile unit must be shutdown. Three Notes modify Condition P. Note 3 states that one RTB train may be bypassed for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for concurrent surveillance testing of the RTB and automatic trip logic, provided the other channel is OPERABLE. This changes the CTS by placing the allowance of concurrent surveillance testing from ACTION I into a Condition in the ITS format.
This change is acceptable because the allowance of the CTS is maintained in the ITS format.
Four hours of concurrent surveillance testing of the RTB and automatic trip logic are allowed in the CTS requirements. The CTS allowance is justified by WCAP-14333 P-A. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.3.1 A.27 CTS Table 3.3-1 Function 20 RCP Breaker Position provides for a reactor trip. The total number 3.3.1 ACTION M Tfable 3.3-1 of channels is one per (RCP) breaker and for an inoperable channel Action 8 must to be entered and requires the inoperable channel to be placed into trip within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or tile unit is required to be placed below P-7 interlock within 78 hours9.027778e-4 days <br />0.0217 hours <br />1.289683e-4 weeks <br />2.9679e-5 months <br />. ITS 3.3.1 for RCP Breaker Position specifies the required channels is one per RCP (breaker) and requires Condition M for an inoperable channel. The Condition provides for an inoperable channel that tile channel must be returned to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or power must be reduced below P-7 setpoint within 78 hours9.027778e-4 days <br />0.0217 hours <br />1.289683e-4 weeks <br />2.9679e-5 months <br />. This changes the CTS by stating the channel requirement for RCP breaker position as one per RCP. The purpose of this change is to provide consistent requirements for the functions as assumed in the safety analyses assumptions.
This change is acceptable because the required Reactor Trip function is specified to be OPERABLE in the applicable MODE with consistent required actions. The Condition is consistent with appropriate Required Action to place tile unit out of the MODE of applicability within Completion Times consistent with other measures that shutdown the unit. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.1 A.28 CTS Table 4.3-1 lists the surveillance requirements for the Power Range Neutron Flux SR 3.3.1.3 NOTE I Table 4.3-I Note CHANNEL CALIBRATION as M (3)(6).
Note (3) states, "Compare incore to excore axial (3) offset above 15 % RATED THERMAL. POWER (RTP). Adjust channel if absolute difference>
3 percent." The CTS does not specify a CHIANNEL CALIBRATION for the Overtemperature (OT)AT function. ITS Table 3.3.1-1 specifies SR 3.3.1.3 for PRNF and OTAT functions. SR 3.3.1.3 states," Compare results of the incore detector measurements to NIS AFD," every 31 effective full power days (EFPD). Two Notes modify the SR. Note I states, "Adjust NIS channel if absolute difference is > 3 %." Note 2 states, "Not required to be performed until 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> after THERMAL POWER is > 15 % RTP." The addition of Note 2 is addressed by DOC L.9. The change from monthly to every 31 EFPD is addressed by DOC L. 16. This changes the CTS by applying the requirement of a monthly comparison of axial offset of the NIS channel to both the PRNF and OTAT functions. The purpose of CTS monthly CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the PRNF channels is to ensure the indicated Al signal from the Power Range channels for the OTA]'
channels are within 3% of the actual Al.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements of the CTS are translated into the appropriate ITS requirements. The monthly calibration of the PRNF channels is to ensure the PRNF properly reflect AFD indications and OTAT channels receive appropriate adjustments to change their setpoints for changing plant conditions of Al. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.1 A.29 CTS Table 4.3-1 lists for the Power Range Low Setpoint and Intermediate Range channels a SR 3.3.1.8 Note Table 4.3-I Note quarterly test to be performed (Q (12)). Note (12) states, "Quarterly Surveillance in MODE 3*,
(12) 4*, and 5* shall also include verification that Permissives P-6 and P-]0 are in their required state for existing plant conditions by observation of the permissive annunciator window." ITS SR 3.3.1.8 for the Source, Intermediate, and Power Range Neutron Flux Low Setpoint channels require a CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST (COT) to be performed every 92 days. A Note modifies the SR that states, "This Surveillance shall include verification that interlocks P-6 and P-10 are in their required state for existing unit conditions." The movement of the phrase, "by observation of the permissive annunciator window," is addressed by DOC LA.6. The deletion of quarterly surveillance in MODES 3*, 4*, and 5* is addressed by DOC L. 10. This changes the CTS by reformatting the requirement to the ITS SR 3.3.1.8 Note. The purpose of ITS SR 3.3.1.8 Note is to ensure the interlocks P-6 and P-10 are in the proper state for the indicated power level from the appropriate NIS channels.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements of the CTS are maintained in ITS format. The CTS and ITS require the verification of P-6 and P-I0 interlocks are in the required state for existing plant conditions. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.3.2 A. I In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 1431, Rev. I, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.3.2 A.2 CTS Actions a and b for LCO 3.3.2.1 require the applicable Action requirements of Table 3.3-3 3.3.2 ACTIONS 3.3.2.1 Actions a be entered for an inoperable channel until the required channel is restored to OPERABLE status.
NOTE and b ITS LCO 3.3.2 Action A states for an ESFAS function with one or more required channels or trains inoperable, the referenced Condition in Table 3.3.2-1 for the channel(s) or train(s) be entered immediately. The Actions of the ITS are modified by a Note which states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each Function."
This change is acceptable because it clearly states the current requirement. The CTS considers each function to be separate and independent from the other functions. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.2 A.3 CTS Surveillance Requirement 4.3.2.1.1 states that each ESFAS instrumentation channel shall be Table 3.3.2-1 4.3.2.1.1 demonstrated OPERABLE by the performance of specific test requirements. This includes a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST (CFT) shown in Table 4.3-2. ITS Table 3.3.2-I includes the SRs in a column for each Function. Tile ITS SRs for the TRIP ACTUATING DEVICE OPERATIONAL TEST (TADOT), ACTUATION LOGIC TEST (ALT), MASTER RELAY TEST (MRT), and CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST (COT) are listed by numbers in the Surveillance Requirements section for the specification.
This change is acceptable because the ITS SRs maintain the CTS requirements for testing of each Function. The change is one of format only and any technical change to the requirements for a Function is specifically addressed in an individual discussion of change. The CTS CFT is divided into several parts in the ITS requirements, and becomes the COT for analog devices, i.e.,
pressure or temperature channels, and the TADOT for on/off channels, i.e., manual switches for SI, Containment Spray, and etc. For the logic testing requirements, the ALT and MRT are the appropriate test designations. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.

The notation #9 states, "Trip function may be blocked in this MODE below the P-12 setpoint." ITS Table 3.3.2-I requires the High Steam Flow in Two Steam Lines Coincident with Tave - Low Low function for SI and SLI to be OPERABLE in MODES I, 2 and 3. MODES 2 and 3 are modified by Note (b) that states, "Above the P-12 (Tave-Low Low) interlock." This changes the CTS by providing a clarification for the functional requirements.
This change is acceptable because the ITS requirement states the applicability in the terms of when the function is required to be OPERABLE. CTS stated the requirement in terms of an exception and did not state the specific applicability requirements. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS requirements.

Table A - Administrative Changes ITS Section 3.3 - Instrumentation DOC No.
Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.2 A.5 CTS Table 3.3-3 provides the requirements for the ESFAS instrumentation functions. The Table 3.3.2-1 Table 3.3-3 table's columns list the name of the function, total number of channels, channels to trip, minimum number of OPERABLE channels, applicable MODES, and associated Actions. ITS Table 3.3.2-I is constructed from the requirements of CTS Table, but with modifications. The ITS Table requirements list the name of the function, applicable MODES or other specified Conditions, required channels, Conditions, Surveillance Requirements, and Allowable Values.
The "Channels to Trip" and "Minimum Channels OPERABLE" columns are addressed by DOC LA. 12. A separate DOC addresses any technical change to the CTS Table 3.3-3. This changes the CTS Table by requiring different formatted information in the ITS.
This change is acceptable because it maintains the technical requirements of the CTS with the conversion to the ITS. The required channels' column units incorporates the channel requirements of the instrumentation function formerly provided by the CTS column of total number of channels. This requires a function, with the reactor being operated in specific MODES or specific conditions, to have a number of channels OPERABLE. If the number of OPERABLE channels is less than the required, the ITS Condition (formally the CTS Action) must be entered. The addition of specific conditions in the ITS that were in the CTS are made with notes, which specify modifications to Actions or applicability for a function. With these modifications to the table, it is the intent of this change to not modify any technical requirement, but rather to present the information in a more logical manner. Any technical change to a function is addressed by a separate item DOC. Tile change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.
3.3.2 A.6 CTS Table 3.3-3 for Functional Unit 3, C"ontainment Isolation Phase 'A', states the finction is Table 3.3.2-1 Table 3.3-3 initiated from safety injection automatic actuation logic, in addition to manual initiation. ITS requirement in Table 3.3.2-1 states manual, atutomatic actuation logic and actuation relays, and the safety injection signals provide the Containment Isolation Phase A initiation signal. This rewords the requirement and provides a clarification for the CTS.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirements are maintained in JTS format. The Containment Phase A Isolation is initiated by the automatic actuation logic and actuation relays and the safety injection signals. The presentation of the requirements in ITS format does not modify the technical requirement of the CTS. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTrS Requirement 3.3.2 A.7 CTS requirements for LCO 3.3.2.1 in Table 3.3-3 associated with Functions require various None Table 3.3-3 Actions marked with
- to be entered when a channel becomes inoperable for the functions. The notation
- for the Action states, "The provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable." This allowance is not needed to be specifically stated for these functions in the ITS format and is eliminated.
This change is acceptable because ITS LCO 3.0.4 states that when an LCO is not met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability shall not be made except when tile associated Actions to be entered permit continued operation in the MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability for an unlimited period of time. Tile Required Actions of ITS LCO 3.3.2 for the ESFAS Functions conform to this requirement, and therefore the allowance is provided in the ITS without requiring a specific exception. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.
3.3.2 A.8 CTS Table 4.3-2 lists in the last column the MODES in which the associated Surveillance Table 3.3.2-1 Table 4.3-2 Requirements must be performed. CTS Tables 3.3-3 and 4.3-2 are combined to form ITS Table 3.3.2-I. With the combining of these Tables, the 'MODES in which surveillance required' column of 4.3-2 is redundant to the requirements listed for the functions in Table 3.3-3
'Applicable MODES' column and is labeled as, 'Applicable MODES or other specified conditions' in ITS Table 3.3.2-I.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements for each listed function is maintained with the conversion of the CTS to the ITS requirements. Any changes to the CTS Applicable MODES would apply to the Surveillance Requirements, and would be discussed in a separate discussion of change The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.2 A.9 CTS Surveillance Requirement 4.3.2.1.2 requires the ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SR 3.3.2.9 4.3.2.1.2 RESPONSE TIME test on each ESFAS function be performed at least once per 18 months. The requirement states, "Each test shall include at least one logic train such that both logic trains are tested at least once per 36 months and one channel per function such that both logic trains are tested at least once per N times 18 months where N is the total number of redundant channels in a specific ESFAS function as shown in the "Total No. of Channels" Column of Table 3.3-3." ITS SR 3.3.2.9 requires the verification that ESFAS RESPONSE TIMES are within limits every 18 months on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The ITS definition of STAGGERED TEST bASIS is consistent with the CTS testing Frequency. This changes the CTS by utilizing the ITS definition of STAGGERED TEST BASIS..
This change is acceptable the requirements for ESFAS RESPONSE TIME testing for the ESFAS channels remain unchanged. ITS definition for STAGGERED TEST BASIS and its application in this requirement do not change the current testing frequency requirements. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.
3.3.2 A. 10 CTS ESFAS system interlocks P-Il and P-12 are required to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3.3.2 ACTION J Table 3.3-3 Action and 3. If a channel becomes inoperable, Action 22 must be entered. The Action requires with 22 less that the Minimum Channels within I hour determine, "that the interlock is in its required state for the existing plant condition or apply Specification 3.0.3." ITS requirements for the ESFAS interlocks P-I I and P-12 require the functions to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, and 3.
If a channel becomes inoperable Action J must be entered. The Action requires a verification of the interlocks are in their required state for plant conditions within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> or be in MODE 3 within 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br /> and MODE 4 within 13 hours1.50463e-4 days <br />0.00361 hours <br />2.149471e-5 weeks <br />4.9465e-6 months <br />. This changes the CTS by specifically stating shutdown requirements in specified time requirements in the Action.
This change is acceptable because the Required Actions and Completion Times are the same as the CTS requirements. CTS LCO 3.0.3 allows 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 6 additional hours to reach HOT STANDBY and 6 more hours to reach HOT SHUTDOWN.

ITS Table 3.3.2-1 requires Pressurizer Pressure-Low Low function to be OPERABLE in MODES 1,2, and 3(a). Note (a) states, "Above the P-I I setpoint." This changes the CTS by providing a clarification for the functional requirements.
This change is acceptable because the ITS requirement states the applicability in the terms of when the function is required to be OPERABLE. CTS stated the requirement in terms of an exception and did not state the specific applicability requirements. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.
3.3.2 A. 12 CTS Table 4.3-2 notation (1) is associated with the manual initiation switches for Safety SR 3.3.2.7 NOTE Table 4.3-2 Injection, Containment Spray, Containment Isolation (Phase A and B), Steam Line Isolation, and notatin (1) the start of the AFW pumps. The notation requires that each manual actuation switch be tested to actuate the required function at least once per 18 months during shutdown. In ITS Table 3.3.2-1I, for each of the listed functions, SR 3.3.2.7 states that a TADOT must be performed at a frequency of eighteen months. A Note to SR 3.3.2.7 specifies, "Verification of setpoint not required for manual initiation functions." The deletion of the performance of the surveillance requirement during shutdown is addressed by DOC L.4. This changes the CTS by replacing the wording of testing each required switch with the ITS requirement of performing a TADOT for the required functions and adds the Note to not require verification of setpoint.
This change is acceptable because the required testing maintains the CTS requirements in the ITS format. The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TESTING of the manual switches to perform their function continues to be required in the ITS TADOT. The addition of the Note to the SR simply states that setpoints for manual activation do not require tile verification ofsetpoints. A manual activation either provides a function or not. Ifthe function is initiated by the manual actuation, the function is satisfied, and therefore, the setpoint verification is not necessary for any manual initiation. The change is designated as anl administrative change because it does not result inl technical change to the CTS requirements.

A CHANNEL SR 3.3.2.8 Table 4.3-2 FUNCTIONAL TEST (CFT) and a CHANNEL CALIBRATION must be performed for each interlock on a refueling frequency (R). ITS SRs for the P-I I and P-12 interlocks require SR 3.3.2.8 (CHANNEL CALIBRATION) to be performed every 18 months. This changes the CTS by eliminating the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST requirements.
This change is acceptable because the ITS requirements maintains the CTS technical requirements. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION requirements contain all the requirements of the CFT and therefore, performing a CHANNEL CALIBRATION will satisfy all of the technical requirements of the CFT. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.
3.3.2 A. 14 CTS requirements in Table 3.3-3 for ESFAS Function 3.b.l1), Containment Isolation Phase B Table 3.3.2-1 TFable 3.3-3 manual, state that 2 sets, 2 switches/set are the total number of channels required. This function is required to be OPERABLE in MODES I, 2, 3, and 4 with Action 18 to be entered for an inoperable channel. ITS in Table 3.3.2-I Function 3.b.1, Containment Isolation Phase B on Manual Initiation, states, "Refer to Function 2.a (Containment Spray - Manual Initiation) for all functions and requirements." This changes the CTS by deleting the specific requirements for the Containment Isolation Phase B manual requirements and referring the function to the Containment Spray Manual Initiation for the specific requirements.
This change is acceptable because there are no separate switches to initiate the Phase B Containment Isolation function. The Containment Spray manual switches are the only switches that initiate the Phase B Containment Isolation signal. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.

CTS requirements in Table 3.3-3 for ESFAS Function 2.c, Containment Spray on Containment Pressure High-High state that 4 channels are required. The function is required to be OPERABLE in MODES 1,2,3, and 4 with Action 16* to be entered for an inoperable channel.
ITS in Table 3.3.2-I Function 3.b.3, Containment Isolation Phase B on Containment Pressure High High, states, "Refer to Function 2.c (Containment Spray - Containment Pressure High High) for all functions and requirements." This changes the CTS by deleting the specific requirements for the Containment Isolation Phase B on Containment Pressure High High requirements and referring the function to the Containment Spray Containment Pressure H igh High for the specific requirements.
This change is acceptable because there are no separate signals fiom Containment Pressure channels to initiate the Phase B Containment Isolation function. The Containment Spray Containment Pressure High High signal is the same signal that initiates the Phase B Containment Isolation signal. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.
3.3.2 A. 16 CTS Surveillance Requirement 4.3.2.1.2 states that the Engineered Safety Feature Response None 4.3.2.1.2 Time of each ESFAS function shall be demonstrated to be within the limit at least once per 18 months. Under the CTS, it is recognized that a Response Time Test is not required for the manual initiation and automatic actuation logic portions of the ESFAS functions. These portions of the function are tested by other Surveillances. ITS 3.3.2 replaces the general statement in CTS 4.3.2.1.2 with specific testing requirements for each function. For those portions of the ESFAS functions that a Response Time Test is appropriate, ITS SR 3.3.2.9 is required. This changes the CTS by explicitly recognizing those portions of ESFAS functions for which a Response Time Test is not required.
This change is acceptable because it explicitly states the portions of ESFAS functions for which a Response Time Test is required. The ITS and CTS Response Time Testing requirements are the same. The change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.

This rewords the CTS by specifically stating that surveillance testing can only be performed when the remaining train is OPERABLE. The purpose of the ITS Note phrase, "provided the other train is OPERABLE," is to remind the SR performer that there are only two trains of Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays for SI, Containment Spray, and Containment Isolation. With one train inoperable, testing the other train would disable the safety function.
This change is acceptable because it restates the CTS requirements in more clearly defined terms.
The CTS requirements are maintained in ITS format. Tile change is designated as an administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.

Isolation, Turbine Trip and Feedwater Isolation, AFW pump, and the Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays for Steam Line Isolation require a monthly CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST to be performed. The surveillance firequency is modified by Note (2) that states, "Each train or logic channel shall be functionally tested at least every other 3 1 days..." ITS Surveillance Requirements (SR) for the Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays for SI, Containment Spray, Containment Isolation (Phase A Isolation and Phase B Isolation), Steam Line Isolation, Turbine Trip and Feedwater Isolation, and AFW, require SRs 3.3.2.2 and 3.3.2.3 to be performed. ITS SR 3.3.2.2 requires the performance of an ACTUATION LOGIC TEST (ALT) and ITS SR 3,3.2.3 states that a MASTER RELAY TEST (MRT) must be performed. The Frequency of both ITS SRs is "31 days on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS." This changes the CTS SR Frequency from "every other 31 days" to the ITS requirement of"31 days invoking STAGGERED TEST BASIS" definition, while the CTS testing requirements are expressed in ITS terms of ALT and MRT, The purpose of the phrase "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS" is to provide standard means of expressing the testing requirement frequency. The testing requirements of ALT and MRT continue to require the appropriate testing requirements for each safety function's Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays. This change is acceptable because the CTS testing requirements and frequencies are maintained in the ITS format. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS requirements.

Note Each Function is listed in Table 3.3.3 - 1. A Note to the Actions states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each Function." This changes the CTS by adding a Note to the CTS requirements. The purpose for adding the Note to the Actions is to provide a clear understanding that each function is independent. Each function requires a parameter to be available for the operator to monitor during post accident conditions. In addition, this changes the format for initiating Completion Time clocks.
This change is acceptable because tile CTS is constructed to provide for separate entry into the Actions for each PAM function and the addition of the ITS Note clarifies the requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.3.3 A.3 CTS SR 4.3.3.6 in Table 4.3-7 requires each PAM instrumentation channel to be demonstrated SR 3.3.3.2 Note 4.3.3.6 OPERABLE by the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION on a refueling frequency.
ITS SR 3.3.3.2 requires a C1HANNEL CALIBRATION be performed on each PAM instrumentation function shown in Table 3.3.3-1, at a Frequency of eighteen months. A Note modifies the SR that excludes neutron detectors from CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS. This changes the CTS by clarifying an existing allowance.
The purpose of the Note is to exclude neutron detectors from the requirement because of the impracticality of this test on this device type. CTS requirement 4.3.1.1.1 states each reactor trip instrumentation channel will have a C14ANNEL CALIBRATION performed in accordance with Table 4.3-1. Note (6) to the table applies to all nuclear instrumentation required for power operation. This states, "Neutron detectors may be excluded from CHANNEL CALIBRATION."
Therefore, the inclusion of the Note is acceptable because this requirement parallels the requirements of the CTS for calibration of all other nuclear instrumentation channels. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.3.3 A.4 CTS 3.3.3.6 Table 3.3-10 lists in two columns the requirements for accident monitoring Table 3.3.3-1 Table 3.3-10 instrumentation. These columns are labeled as, "Total No. of Channels" and "Minimum Channels OPERABLE." The CTS provides Actions stated as part of the LCO. ITS 3.3.3 Table 3.3.3-I states the requirements for PAM Instrumentation in one column labeled "Required Channels." This changes the CTS by only including thee minimum channels OPERABLE column.
The change is acceptable because the technical requirements of the CTS columns and Actions are incorporated in the ITS technical requirements. Any technical changes for the individual functions are addressed by other discussion of changes. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to tile CTS.
3.3.3 A.5 CTS 3.3.3.6 Table 3.3-10 lists the functions of Reactor Vessel Coolant Level Monitor, In Core Table 3.3.3-1 Table 3.3-10 Thermocouples, and Reactor Coolant System Subcooling Margin Monitor as required accident monitoring instruments. ITS 3.3.3 Table 3.3.3-1 groups these instruments under the Inadequate Core Cooling Monitor as subsystems. This changes the CTS by the regrouping PAM functions.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements remain unchanged. The incorporation of the functions under the system of inadequate core cooling does not change the instrument requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

ITS LCO 3.3.4 provides a Note to NOTE the Actions that states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each Function." This changes the CTS by stating that separate Condition entry for each function is allowed. In addition, this changes the format for initiating Completion Time clocks.
The purpose of the ITS Note is to state that individual functions may enter the conditional requirements separately and that each function has an independent Completion Time from each of the other instrumentation functions. This change is acceptable because it is consistent with the application of the CTS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.3.5 A.I1 In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 143 1, Rev.

CTS Action b states, "With an ESFAS instrumentation channel inoperable, take the ACTION shown in Table 3.3-3." ITS LCO 3.3.5, "Loss of Power (LOP)
Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) Start Instrumentation," requires specific channels per bus for the undervoltage and degraded voltage functions to be OPERABLE. This change maintains the CTS requirements for the loss of power finction in the ITS format.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements for the LOP EDG function are maintained with the change in format. The LOP EDG function continue to start the EDG on a loss of voltage or degraded voltage within the assumed time of the safety analyses. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

If a required channel becomes inoperable, the table NOTE provides the appropriate required Actions to be performed for each required function. ITS LCO 3.3.5 requires three channels per bus for the loss of voltage and degraded voltage functions to be OPERABLE. The ITS Actions provide the appropriate Conditions, Required Actions, and Completion Times for the LOP EDG function. A Note modifies the Actions that states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each function." This changes the CTS by specifically stating that each Condition may be entered for each function separately and follow a separate Completion Time resulting in no technical changes to CTS Action requirements.
This change is acceptable because the requirements of the CTS are maintained in the ITS format.
The functional requirements can affect each emergency bus separately, therefore the loss of voltage and degraded voltage function may be treated as independent. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.3.5 A.4 SR3.3.5.3 4.3.2.1.2 CTS Surveillance Requirement 4.3.2.1.2 requires the ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES RESPONSE TIME test on each ESFAS function at least once per 18 months. The requirement states, "Each test shall include at least one logic train such that both logic trains are tested at least once per 36 months and one channel per function such that both logic trains are tested at least once per N times 18 months where N is the total number of redundant channels in a specific ESFAS function as shown in the "Total No. of Channels" Column of Table 3.3-3." ITS SR 3.3.5.3 requires the verification of ESFAS RESPONSE TIMES are within limits every 18 months on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The ITS definition of STAGGERED TEST BASIS is consistent with the CTS testing Frequency. This changes the CTS by utilizing the ITS definition of STAGGERED TEST BASIS. This also changes the CTS by removing the references to logic train testing as the LOP EDG start instrumentation does not have logic trains.
This change is acceptable because the requirements for ESFAS RESPONSE TIME testing for the ESFAS channels remain unchanged. ITS definition for STAGGERED TEST BASIS and its application in this requirement do not change the current testing firequency requirements. The ITS separates the LOP EDG start instrumentation, which does not have logic trains, from other ESFAS functions. Therefore, the CTS reference to logic trains is not required in ITS 3.3.5. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST does not require a verification of relay setpoints for the Loss of Voltage and Degraded Voltage functions. ITS SR 3.3.5.1 states that a TADOT must be performed every 92 days. The SR is modified by a Note that states, "Verification of setpoint is not required." This changes the CTS by specifically stating that setpoint verification is not required for the required quarterly testing.
This change is acceptable because the verification of the relay setpoints require elaborate bench calibration and this is performed during the CHANNEL CALIBRATION. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION is performed every 18 months. The verification of relay setpoints has been consistently within the limits of the 18-month requirements. Therefore, the addition of the Note to the SR does not modify the CTS and is provided to clarify the requirement. The change is designated as administrative change because it does not result in technical change to the CTS requirements.

CTS 3.4.9.1 is applicable at all times. ITS 3.4.3 states that the RCS pressure, lemperature, and RCS heatup and cooldown rates shall be maintained. ITS 3.4.3 is applicable at all times. This changes the CTS by eliminating the LCO requirement that the limits must be met during heatup, cooldown, and inservice leak and hydrostatic testing.
This change is acceptable because the CTS and ITS limits are applicable at all times, including during heatup, cooldown, and inservice leak and hydrostatic testing. Staling that the lim)its are applicable during heatup, cooldown, and inservice leak and hydrostatic testing in thie LCO presents an apparent conliict with the Applicability which states that the limits apply at all times.

ITS 3.4.7 is applicable in MODE 5 with the RCS loops fillcd and requires one RHIR loop to be OPERABLE and in operation. ITS 3.4.7 contains a Note which allows all RHR loops to be removed from operation during planned hcatup to MODE 4 when at least one RCS loop is in operation.
This change is acccptable because an RCS loop is capable ol providing the necessary decay heat removal and reactor coolant flow. The ITS convention of dividing the coolant loop specifications between MODES 4 and 5 requires an allowance in the MODE 5 LCO for the starting of an RCP for healup to MODE 4. Such an allowance is not needed in the CTS since an RCS loop can be used to satisfy the LCO.

In this condition, the RCS loops cannot be used for decay heat rtemoval and all references to the RCS loops, steam generators, and Reactor Coola-nt Pumps are removed.
This change is acceptable because it does not change the current trequirements. With the RCS loops not filled, the RCS loops and the steam generators cannot be used For dccay heat removal and cannot be OPERABLE. Therefore, the two RHR loops must be used as the OFPERABiF loops in MODE 5 with the loops not filled. This change is designated is administrative because it is an editorial change resulting from the division of CTS 3.4.1.3 in thc.!TS.

t CTS 3.4.1.3 is applicable in MODES 4 and 5. ITS 3.4.6 is applicablel ii MODE 4, ITS 3.4.7 is applicable in MODE 5 with the RCS loops filled, and ITS 3.4.8 is applicable in MODE 5 with the RCS loops not filled. This changes the CTS by dividing the CTS 3.4.1.3 requirements into three specifications with different applicabilities. Editorial changes are made in the division of the CTS requirements to the ITS.
This change is designated as administrative because all technical changes resulting froin the division of CTS 3.4.1.3 are discussed in other DOCs.
CTS 3.4.1.3 states that with less than the required loops O1PFRABIlE, immediately initiate corrective action to return the required loops to OPERABLE status as soon as possible and be in cold shutdown (MODE 5) within 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br />.

This change is acceptable because ITS 3.4.8 is only applicable in MODE 5. Therefore. a requirement to be in MODE 5 is unneeded. 'I'his change is designated as,mdninistrative because it is an editorial chang*e required by the division of CTS 3.4.1.3 into the I'T'S.
CTS 3.4.1.3 states that two coolant loops shall be OPERABLE, consisting of amiy combination of RCS and RHR loops. A footnote to the LCO states that the OPERABLE,

This change is acceptable because the I'S definition of OPEIRABLE allows an OPERABLE component to have either a normal or emergency power source. This,:haer wo the CI'S definition of OPERABLE is discussed in the Section 1.0 Discussion of.'hange. Given this change to the definition of OPERABLE, a specific allowance For the RHR loops is not required.
This change is designated as editorial as it replaces a speciflic exception with aln ITS generic change.

This change is acceptable because the CTS limit and thie ITS limit arc the same. The ITS presents thie pressurizer limit in thie scale displayed in tile Control Room. Pressuirizer volume is displayed as a percent of level on Control Room instrumentation. This change is designated as administrative as the units of the limit are changed but the value of the limit is nit affected.

ITS SR 3.4.10.1 stetes that it musm be verified that each pressurizer safety valve is OPERABLE in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program and, following testing, lift settings shall be within +/- 1%.
This change is acceptable because the requirements havc not changed. Both the CTS and the ITS state that the safety valves must be tested in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program.
LThe ITS requirement that the as-left lift settings must be within +/- I% is moved from CTS LCO 3.4.3.1 and 3.4.2. This change is designated as administrative as the technical reqcuirements are not changed.
CTS 3.4.2 requires a minimum of one pressurizer code safety valve to be OPERABLE with a lift setting of 2485 psig +/-3% as-found. ITS 3.4.10 requires three prcssuriy"r code safety valves to be OPERABLE with a lift setting of 2485 psig, +2% /-3% average with ntvsinglo valve outside of+/-

Il'S Requirentent tZYl'S Rcqui enient Description of Changc 3.4.1.4 and 3.4.1.5 3.4.18 CTS 3.4.1.4 provides requirements on tile boron concentration of an isolated loop in MODES 3, 4 and 5. CTS 3.4.1.5 provides requirements on opening a cold leg stop valve in all MODES. ITS 3.4.18 provides requirements on the startup of an isolated loop and is applicable in MODES 5 and
- 6. ITS 3.4.18 also refers to the minimum boron concentration requirements in MODE 6 imposed by LCO 3.9. I.
This change is acceptable because the condition the Specifications control is only allowed in MODES 5 and 6. ITS 3.4.17 requires the RCS loop isolation valves to be open with power removed to the valve operator in MODES I, 2, 3, and 4. Thcreolre, reqtuirements on the startup of an inactive loop are not applicable in those MODES. Rcfcrencing the boron concentration requirements in LCO 3.9.1 is necessary because the CTS LCO 3. 1.1 and 3.1.2 do not apply in MODE 6. LCO 3.9. I provides an equivalent requirement in MODE 6. T'his change has been designated as administrative as it is editorial resulting from changesjiusiflied in other specifications.
3.4.1.5 None CTS 3.4.1.5 states, in part, that a reactor coolant loop cold leg stop Valve shall rema'.(in closed until the reactor is subcritical by at least 1.77% Ak/k. ITS 3.4. 18 does not contain this. I-equirCmCnt.
This change is acceptable because the shutdown margin requirement in.C(I'S 3,4.1,5 is redundant.
ITS 3.4.18 is applicable in MODES 5 and 6 with RCS loop(s) isolated. 'CTS 3*. 1..2 and ITS
- 3..I requirc tile shutdown margin to be > 1.77% Ak/k when in MODE 5. CTS 3.9. I and ITS 3.9.1 require the reactor to be shutdown by greater than 1.77% Ak/k when in MODE 6.
Therefore, the CTS 3.4.1.5 shutdown margin requirement is redundanti to these other, more broadly applicable, specifications and is not needed. Changes to CTSS
.1.1.2 or CTS 3.9.1 will be addressed in the DOCs for those Specifications. This change is designated as administrative as it eliminates a redundant requirement from the CTS.

The action taken under the CTS to "suspend startup of the isolated loop" is to immediately close the cold leg isolation valve, which is the same action required by the ITS in this condition. This change is designated as administrative as it does not result in a technical change to the specifications.

Fron the-valve and the breaker locked open. This changes the CTS by not requiring that A.C.: nwv,er he removed fronm the valve. The change regarding locking the breaker open is discussed in DOC1 -.3.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirement to remove A..C. power frmn the valve operator is located in, the ITS LCO. The ITS ICO requires each isolated loop to remain isolated with power removed from the valve operators. The ITS LCO Note requires the loop to bc isolated. Therefore, the ITS LCO Note and the I.CO require the loop to, be isolaled and power to be removed from the valve operators. This change is designated as admin;strativc because it does not result in a technical chang~e to the specifications.
CTS LCO 3.4.1.6 requires that the pressurizer water volume be at least
,05,.,ib~c feet prior to filling a drained, isolated loop from the active volume of the RCS. CI'S Action b addresses this limit not being met and Surveillance 4.4.1.6.2 verifies this volume. ITS LCO 3.4.19 requires pressurizer level to be : 32%. Action C addresses the condition of this pre:isurizer level not being met and SR 3.4.18.6 verifies this level is met. This changes the CTS by suhstittling an equivalent pressurizer level for the pressurizer volume contained in the l
S.1"*'.
This change is acceptable because there is no direct indication of pressuri/er water volumil in the Control Room. Pressurizer water volume is calculated from the pressurizecr level.

This change is acceptable because the requirements have not bcen chaogecd. Under the CTS, once a loop is isolated the requirements of Specification 3.4.1.4, 3.4.1.5, or.1.4.1.6 apply. Under the ITS, once a loop is isolated, the requirements of 3.4.18 apply. CTS 3A. 1.4i 3.4. 1.5, and 3.4.1.6 describe the controls on starting a loop, as does ITS 3.4. 18. T'hereflore, iihe fcuiflClnts have not changed except as described in other DOCS for ITS 3.4.18.

ITS 3.4.18, Action ID apprlies in the same circumstance and requires that the isolation valves be closed. This changes the CTS by not requiring that A.C. power be removed from the valve. The change regarding locking the breaker open is discussed in DOC L.3.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirement to remove A.C. power from the valve operator is located in thie ITS LCO. The ITS LCO requires each isolated loop to remain isolated with power removed from the valve operators. '['he ITS Action requires the loop to be isolated.
"Therefore, the ITS Action and thei CO require the loop to be isolated and power to bh relovewd from the valve operators. This change is designated as administrative lbecausC it (toes not result in a technical change to the specif'icationls.

-i CTS 3.10.4 is applicable during operation below.the P-7 Interlock Selpoint.I.CO 3.4.19 is applicable in MODES I and 2 during startup and PHYSICS TESTS.
The pui'pose of CTS 3.10.4 is to allow all Reactor Coolant Pumps (RCPs) to be stopped while at low reactor power to allow natural circulation testing. ICO 3.4.19 serves the same purpose. This testing is performed with reactor power less than 10% RTP to ensure that the fuel design limits are not exceed. Should power exceed the P-7 Interlock Setpoint (10% RoTP), a low flow reactor trip signal (which is bypassed below the P-7 setpoint) would open the reactor trip circuit breakers and the reactor would be shutdown. This change is acceptable becau,;e ihe Applicability of CTS 3.10.4 and ITS LCO 3.4.19 serve the same purpose. Both allow Ihe testing to be l)erlormed.
However, the CTS 3.10.4 Applicability could be interpreted to be in coif] ict with the Action.
Specifically, should reactor power exceed the P-7 Interlock Setpoint,. thcCTS/lApplicability is exited, and tile Condition ol the Action, power greater than P-7, is nevcr ent'red. The ITS Applicability, MODE I and 2 during startup and PHYSICS TESTS, allows the appropriate Action to be entered should power exceed the 1P-7 Interlock Setpoint. this is how the CTS Action is currently interpreted and implemented. This change is designated as administrative as it is a clarification of lthe current understanding of a requiremenlt.
CTS 4.10.4.2 requires that a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TESTI be petrforme1d on each Intcrmediate and Power Range channel and P-7 Interlock. ITS SR 3.4.19.2 rcquires that a CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST be performed on that equipment.
This change is acceptable because, for this equipment, a CTS CHANNEL F.IUNCTIONAL TEST and an ITS CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST are the same. The ITS renamed tile CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST to CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST and separvted some of the functions to other definitions. That scparation does not affect this change. "i'ere fore,.this change is editorial. The change is designated as administrative as it changes Ilwent0roe1f a test with no change in intent.

CTS 3.10.4 states that the limitations of Specification 3.4.1.I may be suspended during the performance of startup and PHYSICS TESTS provided the THERM Al. POWER does not exceed the P-7 Interlock Setpoint and the Reactor Trip Setpoints on the OPERABLE Intermediate and Power Range Channels are set ; 35% and

ITS 3.4.19 states that the requirement of LCO 3.4.4, "RCS Loops - MODES I and 2," may be suspended with THERMAL POWER < P-7. This changes the CTS by eliminating the requirement that the Reactor Trip Setpoints on ihe OPERABLE hIntermediate and Power Range Channels are set 35% and < 25% of RATED THERMAL POWER, respectively.
This change is acceptable because the Reactor Trip Setpoints on the OPERABLE Intermediate and Power Range Channels are contained in LCO 3.3. I, RTS Instrumenitation. Repeating that requirement in this LCO is unnecessary. This change is designated administrative as it eliminates a repeated requirement from the CTS, resulting in no technical change to the Technical Specifications.

CTS 3.7.9.2 A.2 Description ol Change Pagc 24 of 24 VPQ DCqU cne CTS 3.7.9.2 Action states that when an RHR subsystem is inoperable, it must he immediately restored to OPERABLE status or RCS temperature must be maintained below.i50'F by alternate heat removal methods. It also states that the provisions olfSpecificaliions ".0.3, 3.0.4, and 4.0.4 are not applicable. ITS 3.4.6 Actions do not contain exceptions to these specifications. Other changes to the CTS 3.7.9.2 Action are describcd in L.5.
This change is acceptable as it results in no technical changes to the Specifical ions. Under the CTS, if an RI-R subsystem is not restored immediately or RCS tempera lure is not kept below 350'F, no 3.0.3 entry is required and, as a result, a shutdown to a lower node is not required.
Under the ITS, if a required RHR subsystem is inoperable, actions must be initiated to restore a second coolant loop to OPERABLE status but no shutdown to a lower modIe is required.
Therefore, eliminating the explicit 3.0.3 exception does not result in l technical change to the Technical Specifications. Under the CTS, if an RHR subsystem is inopcirablc, Specifications 3.0.4 and 4.0.4 are not applicable and, therefore, MODE changes arem not prohibited. However, the CTS Action requires RCS temperature to be kept below 35 0'F, which are the entry conditions for the next higher MODE. Therefore, under the CTS, MODE chanj-es to a higher MODE are prohibited without reliance on Specifications 3.0.4 or 4.0. With a required RHR loop inoperable, ITS 3.0.4 also prohibits transition to a higher mode. This change is dcsýignated a:, administrative as it eliminates allowances that tire provided by other nicans in the ITS.

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.5.1 A.2 CTS LCO 3.5.1 states each reactor coolant system accumulator shall be OPERABLE and states 3.5.1 3.5.1 accumulator requirements that must be met for each accumulator to be OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.5.1 states three accumulators shall be OPERABLE. This changes CTS by moving the specific accumulator requirements to Surveillances.
This change is acceptable because ITS SR 3.0.1 states that failure to meet a Surveillance is failure to meet the LCO. The movement of this information firom the LCO to the Surveillances results in no change to the OPERABILITY requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.5.1 A.3 CTS 3.5.1 does not contain a specific ACTION for two or more aCcumulators inoperable. With 3.5.1 Action D 3.0.3 two or more accumulators inoperable, CTS 3.0.3 would be entered. ITS 3.5.1 ACTION D directs entry into LCO 3.0.3 when two or more accumulators are inoperable.
This change is acceptable because the actions taken when two or more accumulators are inoperable are unchanged. Adding this ACTION is consistent with the ITS convention of directing entry into LCO 3.0.3 when a condition represents a loss of safety function. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.5.1 A.4 CTS Surveillance 4.5.l.b requires the accumulator boron concentration to be verified after each SR 3.5.1.4 Note 4.5.I.b solution volume increase ofŽ> 5% of accumulator tank volume. ITS SR 3.5.1.4 Frequency includes a Note clarifying that this boron concentration verification need only be performed on the affected accumulator.
This change is acceptable because it is consistent with the current use and understanding of the Surveillance. Testing is unnecessary on accumulators not affected by a solution volume increase.
This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

ITS 3.5.1 Applicability restricts MODE 3 applicability to when RCS pressure is above 1000 psig.
This change is acceptable because the difference between pressurizer pressure and RCS pressure is not significant, though pressurizer pressure and RCS pressure do differ somewhat due to the elevation head of the pressurizer. Specifying RCS pressure instead of pressurizer pressure provides consistency with the instrumentation actually used to meet the LCO. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

CTS 3.5.1, Action b states that with one accumulator inoperable due to the isolation valve being closed, if the valve is not immediately opened, the unit be in HOT STANDBY within one hour, and HOT SHUTDOWN within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. CTS 3.0.1 states that the LCO and Action requirements are applicable during the Operational Modes or other conditions specified for each Specification. RCS pressure is not part of the definition of I-OT STANDBY or HOT SHUTDOWN in the CTS or MODE 3 or MODE 4 in the I'TS. The Applicability of CTS 3.5.1 is MODES 1,2, and MODE 3 with pressurizer pressure > 1000 psig, so the LCO and Actions become not applicable in MODE 3 with pressurizer pressure < 1000 psig, and entry into HOT SHUTDOWN (MODE 4) is not required.
ITS 3.5.1, ACTION B.lI requires that with one accumulator inoperable for reasons other than boron concentration not within limits, that the accumulator be restored to OPERABLE status within one hour. If the accumulator is not restored to OPERABLE status within one hour, ITS 3.5.1 Action C. I requires entry into MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, and Action C.2 requires RCS pressure be _< 1000 psig within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

Reducing pressurizer pressure to _<
1000 psig while in MODE 3 in the CTS would remove the unit from the MODE of Applicability, and placing the unit in MODE 4 would not be required, making the Required Actions of the CTS and ITS the same, though described differently.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.5.3 A.2 CTS Surveillance 4.5.3.1 states that the ECCS subsystem shall be demonstrated OPERABLE per SR 3.5.3.1 4.5.3.1 the applicable Surveillance Requirements of 4.5.2. ITS SR 3.5.3.1 states the specific Surveillances in Specification 3.5.2 which must be performed.
This change is acceptable because the change is editorial. The Surveillances listed in ITS SR 3.5.3.1 are those that are considered "applicable" under the CTS. All Specification 3.5.2 Surveillances are included in SR 3.5.3.1 except those that are not applicable in MODE 4. SR 3.5.2.2 verifies that ECCS valves are in their proper position to respond to an accident. It is excluded because valves are allowed to be positioned manually to align the flow paths due to reduced RCS pressure. This reduced pressure allows more time for the ECCS to deliver water to the core in the event of an accident in MODE 4. SR 3.5.2.5 and 3.5.2.6 verify actuation of components on an actuation signal. They are excluded because the ECCS actuation system is not required to be OPERABLE in MODE 4. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.5.4 A.I In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 143 1, Rev. 1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.5.4 A.2 CTS LCO 3.5.5 contains a list of requirements that must be met for the Refueling Water Storage SR 4.5.5 3.5.5 Tank (RWST) to be OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.5.4 still requires the RWST to be OPERABLE, but the requirements for OPERABILITY are moved to the Surveillances.
This change is acceptable because, in accordance with SR 3.0.1, failure to meet a Surveillance is failure to meet tile LCO. Therefore, the movement of the requirements from the LCO to the Surveillances results in no changes to the OPERABILITY requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.5.5 A.I In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 143 1, Rev.

CTS LCO 3.5.4.1 contains a list of requirements that must be met for the Boron Injection Tank (BIT) to be OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.5.6 requires tile BIT to be OPERABLE, but tile requirements for OPERABILITY are moved to Surveillances.
This change is acceptable because, in accordance with SR 3.0.1, failure to meet a Surveillance is failure to meet the LCO. Therefore, the movement of these requirements from the LCO to the Surveillances results in no changes to the OPERABILITY requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

I, "Standard Technical Specihications-Westiughouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and arc acceptable hecause they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
CTS 4.6.1.I.b states, "Primary CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY shall he demonstrated...By verifying that each containment air lock is OPERABLE pcr Spccification 3.6. 1.3."
ITS does not include tile refecrence to CTS 3.6.1.3, which is changed to ITS 3.6.2. This changes the CTS by not including a reference to another LCO that is rcquircd in the same Modes of Applicability regardless of the refcrence. Tile pu, rpose of the CTS 4.6. I. I.b is to provide assurance that each containment air lock is performing its f'unction in support of CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY.
This change is acceptable becausec ITS 3.6.2 provides assurance that containment air locks are OPERABI.E without the irefcrence in 3.6. I. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
CTS L.CO 3.6.1.2, 3.6.1.2 Action, and Surveillance Rcquirement 4.6.1.6.1 reference specific 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, Option B requirements, and other specific leakage rate criteria. CTS 4.6.1.2 also states, "The provisions of Speciflication 4.0.2 are not applicable."
ITS I.,CC 3.6. I requires that containment be Operable, Action A. I requires the containment lie restored to Operable s tatLS, and Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1. I requires plerormance of visual examinations and leakage rate testing excelit for containment air lock testing, in accordance with the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program. ITS 5.5.16 states, "The provisions of SR 3.0.2 Jo not apply to the test frequencies spcciflicd in the Containment Leakage Rate 'esting Program.. This changcs CrI'S by referencing the appropriate 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, Option B requirements, staling that SR 3.0.2 (vice CTS 4.0.2) is not applicable, and placing other specific leakage rate (.ritvria in the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program requirements in ITS 5.5.16.
The purpose of ITS 3.6. I is to ensure that the structur al integrity of the contai nit will be maintained comparable to the original design standards for thl lifec of the facility.

CTS 3.6. 1.1 states, "Primary CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY shall be maintained." CTS 3.6.1.2 requires containment leakage rates be within specified paraneters. CTS 3.6.1.6 requires that the structural integrity ol the containment be maintained within specified parameters. CTS 1.6 states, "CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY shall exist when..."
ITS 3.6.1 states, "Conltainmlent shall be OPERABLE. " This changes the CTS by combining the containmelnt requirements of CTS 3.6. 1. 1, CTS 3.6.1.2, and CTS 3.6.1.6 into one LCO. The purpose of CTS 3.6.1. I, CTS 3.6.1.2, and CTS 3.6.1.6 is to provide requirements pertaining for containment OPERABILITY.
This change is acceptable because moving these requirements to one LCO, ITS 3.6. I, centralizes the requirementts. This change is designated as administrative because it does not rcsult in technical chan 'es to the CTS.
C-TS 3.6.1I.2 Action does not state what action to take ir specific leakage rate limits are not met while in the MODES of Applicability, and includes a requirement that the limits be met prior to entering the MODES of Applicability. Entry into CTS 3.0.3 is required if CTS 3.6.1.2 is not met while in the MODES of applicability. CTS 3.0.3 allows I hour to pr-epare and req uirtes the Unit to be in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. ITS 3.6.1 REQUIRED ACTION A.

This changes CTS by stating the Rcquircd Actions rather than del'(Irri,-" to CTS 3.0.3.
The purpose of CTS 3.0.3 is to place the unit outside the MODE of Applicability within a reasonable amount of time in a controlled manner. CTS 3.6.1.2 is silent on these actions, d(eferring to CTS 3.0.3 for the actions to accomplish this. This change is acceptable because the Required Actions speciflied in ITS 3.6.1 adopt standard ITS structure for placing lhe unit outside the MODE of Applicability without changing the time spccified to enter MODE 3 and MODIE 5.
This change is designated as administrative because it does not resull in technical changes to the CTS.
In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical SpeciIIications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording prelfcrences. editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NURFG 143 1, Rev.

ITS 3.6.2 Condition A doiws not include such an Action Requirement. This changes CTS by not explicilly stating that. orrecting the cause of Condition entry allows the Condition to be exiled.
The purpose ol tie statement in CTS 3.6.1.3 Action a. I is to make it clear that one option For exiting a Condition is to meet the LCO. This change is acceptable because the concept is stated in pIS 3.0.2. This change is designated as administrative because it does not resulti dtechnical changes to the CTFS.
CTS 3.6.1.3.a.4 states, "The provisions of'Specif'ication 3.0).4 are not plcbC CTS 3.0).4 states, "Entry into in OPERATIONAIL MODE_ or other specified applicability condition shall not be made unless the conditions of the Limliting Condition for1 Operation aVCeTMetWithout reliance Oil provision contained in the ACTION statements unless otherwise excepted." ITS 3.6.2 does not contain the exception to ITS 3.0.4. ITS 3.0.4 states that when an LCO is riot met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability may he made when the associated ACTIONS to be entered permit continucd operIation in the MODE or ot hcr specified condition in the Appplicability for an unlimited period of' titne. Tbhis changes CTS by de :Iting a refekrence to a requirement which is changed in ITS in such a way that the reference is nil longer required. The purpose of CTS 3.6.1.3.a.4 is to provide an exception to the CTS 3.0 4.
This change is considered acceptable because ITS 3.0.4 is structured slrihb tha( these exceptions are not required. ITS 3.6.2 Actions allow continued operation for an unlimited period of time, which together with ITS 3.0.4 result in the same technical requi rements as the CTS Actions. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
CTS 3.6.1.3 Action a.2 includes an Action requirement that states, "Optiratiom may then continue until performance of the next required overall air lock leakage test prv'led ;hat..

CTS 2, Condition A and and b 3.6.1.3 Action b states, "With a containment air lock inoperable, except as a result of an Condition 13 inoperable air lock door," and specifies Actions to be taken. ITS Actions NOTE' 2 states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each air lock." ITS Condition A states. "One or more containment air locks with one containment air lock door inoperable," and ITS Condition C states, "One or more containment air locks inoperable lor reasons other than Condition A or B."
This changes CTS by clarilying the current intent of applying the Actions to each air lock separately.
The purpose of CTS 3.6.1.3 is to ensure containment air locks mcec their requirements for containment OPERABILITY. One OPERABLE air lock door in each containment air lock provides a pressure boundary, and applying the Actions for one inoperable air lock door to each of the air locks separately is appropriate. ITS 3.6.2 Actions NOTE 2 clearly states this. The Required Actions for each Condition provide appropriate compcnsato ry action for each inoperable air lock. This change is acceptable because it clarilies existing requitrements and better describes how the requirements are currently used. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.6.2 A.6 CTS 3.6.1.3 does not include a relfrence to entering applicable Conditions and Required Actions 3.6.2, Actions Note 3.6.1.3 of the Containment OPERABILITY LCO (CTS 3.6. 1. 1). ITS 3.6.2 Actions NOTE 3 states, 3
"Enter applicable Conditions and Rcquircd Actions of LCO 3.6. 1, "Cdntaininctnl,' whten air lock leakage results in exceeding the overall containment leakage rate." This ohingcs CTS by explicitly requiring the Containment Conditions be entered when the C'mtainment ICO is not met as a result of air lock lcakage exceeding limits.
This change is acceptable because it reinforces the requirement in ITSS 6 I o' nMeet ovetrall containment leakage limits. This change is designated as administrative because it does not r:esult in technical changes to the CTS.

Eilher Action a or b would be taken. ITS 3,6.2 NOTE I of Rcquircd Action A directs entry into Condition C when both doors in the same air lock are inoperable. This changes CTS by adding a NOTE to clarify that entry into Condition C is required when both doors in the same air lock are inoperable, consistent with tile CTS requirement.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requircmcnt to enter one Action for one inoperable door in an air lock, and another Action for two inopcrablc doors in an air lock, is retained in ITS using ITS usage rules. This change is dcsignatcd as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

ITS SR 3.6.2. I requires perfiormance of containment air lock leakage rate testing, in accordance with the Containment Leakage Rate 'Festing Program. ITS SR 3.6.2.1 Note I states, "An inoperable air lock door does not invalidate the previous successful performance of the overall air lock leakage test." This changes CS by Adding Note I as a "reminder that either air lock door is capable of providing a fission product barrier in the event of a DBA. ITS Changes associated with how the leakage rate criteria are addiicssed.irc addressed by DOC A.8.
The purpose of CTS 3.6.2 is to ensure that the structural integrity of the containment air locks will be maintained comparable to the o,'iginal design standards for the liif o01 the facility. This change is acceptable because it provides additional assurance that the containment air lock rcmains considered OPERABLE with one inoperable air lock door, consistent with current rcquirements and practices. One inoperable door does not invalidate the test for the o\\,cral air lock leakage test because the second door is still capable of performing the safety function.

OPERABILITY of supported systcms is addressed through the definition of OPERABILITY for each system, and appropriate LCO Actions are taken. ITS 3.6.3 Action Note 3 states, 'Finter applicable Conditions and Required Actions For systems made inoperable by containment isolation valves." ITS 3.0.6 provides an exception to LCO 3.0.2, stating, "When a supported system LCO is not tmct solely due to) a support system LCO not being met, the Conditions and Required Actions associated with hllis supported system are not required to be entered." LCO 3.0.6 goes on to describe how the Safcty Function Determination Program is used to evaluate support-supported system relationships. This changes CTS by requiring a specific statement to r'cquirC supported system Conditions and Required Actions be entered, whereas in CTS this would be done without the NOT(E..
This change is acceptable because the addition of the NOTE rellects the C'T'S requirement to take applicablc Actions for inoperable systems. The NOTE is required because ol the addition of LCO 3.0.6, and because the requirement to declare supported systems inoperablec is being retained.

CTS 3.0.4 states, "Entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specirlied applki-ability condition shall not be made unless the conditions of the Limiting Condition for Operation are met without reliance on provision contained in the ACTION statements unless otherwise excepted.'
ITS 3.6.2 does not contain the exception to ITS 3.0.4. ITS 3.0.4 states that when an LCO i,; not met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in tie Applicability may bc made when the associaled ACTIONS to be entered permit continued operation in the MODE or other speciflied condition in the Applicability for an unlimited period of time. This changes CTS t): incorporating an allowance into ITS LCO 3.0.4.
This change is considered acceptable because LCO 3.0.4 is changed in ITS such that the NOTEL is not required to retain the same CTS requirement. ITS 3.6.2 Actions allow continued operation Iom an unlimited period of time, which together with ITS 3.0.4 result in the same technical requirements as the CTS.

In a penetrationf low path with one containment isolation valve and a closed system, where the containment isolation valve and the closed system were not capable of performing the isolation function, ]TS LCO 3.0.3 would be cntcred. This changes CTS by incorporating the concept of assuring that the second means of containment isolation f-r a penetration flow path is OPERABLE into the Conditions and Required Actions.-ssociated with ITS 3.6.3.
This change is acceptable because when one nicans of isolating a containment flow path is inoperable, tih other must be OPERABLE, or the ITS requires Required Actioins be taken For two inoperable means of isolating a containment flow path, rather than allowing the Completion Times associated with one inoperable means of isolating a containment I low path.

ITS Table 3.7.1I-1 states the maximum allowable Power Range Neutron Flux - High setpoint as a finction of the number of OPERABLE main steam safety valves. This changes the CTS by stating the maximum allowable Power Range Neutron Flux - High setpoint as a function of the number of OPERABLE, vice inoperable, main steam safety valves.
This change is acceptable because the maximum allowable Power Range Neutron Flux - Iligh setpoint for a condition of the main steam safety valves has not changed. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the specifications.

ITS 3.7.1 states, "Five MSSVs per steam generator shall be OPERABLE." This changes the CTS by stating the number of MSSVs required to be OPERABLE per steam generator, eliminating a reference to unisolated loops, and eliminating a reference to Table 3.7-2.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements have not changed. Each steam generator has five MSSVs. Therefore, "All" MSSVs per steam generator and "Five" MSSVs per steam generator is equivalent. In the MODES of applicability of this specification (MODES 1,2, and 3), all RCS loops are required to be unisolated in accordance with ITS 3.4.17. Therefore, this reference to unisolated loops is unnecessary. In the ITS, the Table equivalent to CTS Table 3.7-2 is referenced in Surveillance 3.7.1.1. SR 3.0.1 states that failure to meet a Surveillance is failure to meet the LCO. Therefore, moving the Table reference from the LCO to a Surveillance has no effect.

Specification 4.0.5 refers to the Inservice Test Program requirements. ITS SR 3.7.2.1 states each MSTV is verified OPERABLE with a closure time of< 5 seconds in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program. This changes the CTS by replacing a reference to CTS 4.0.5 to a reference to the Inservice Testing Program.

The OPERABILITY of the CST to act as a backup water supply to the AFW pumps must be demonstrated if the ECST is not returned to OPERABLE status within four hours. The ECST must be restored to OPERABLE status within seven days or the plant must be placed in HOT SHUTDOWN within the next twelve hours. In addition to these requirements, CTS surveillance 4.7.1.3.2 states the CST shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once per twelve hours. This requirement is accomplished by verifying the water level in the CST is sufficient to replenish the ECST to 110,000 gallons whenever the CST is the supply source for the AFW pumps. ITS 3.7.6 ACTION A requires, if the ECST is inoperable, a verification by administrative means of the OPERABILITY of the CST within four hours and once per twelve hours thereafter. Additionally, the ECST is required to be returned to OPERABLE within the next seven days. This change maintains the CTS requirements in the ITS format.
The change is acceptable because the ITS maintains the technical requirements of the CTS ACTIONS and Surveillance. ITS ACTION A.

The verification will be performed within four hours of the inoperability of the ECST and every twelve hours thereafter.
ITS ACTION A.2 and CTS ACTION b. require the restoration of the ECST to OPERABLE status within seven days. The change is designated as administrative because all technical requirements of the CTS are maintained within the ITS requirements.
3.7.6 A.3 CTS 3.7.1.3 states "The emergency condensate storage tank, (ECST) shall be OPERABLE with a 3.7.6 and SR 3.7.1.3 minimum contained volume of 110,000 gallons of water." ITS LCO 3.7.6 states, "The ECST 3.7.6.1 shall be OPERABLE" and SR 3.7.6.1 states, "Verify the ECST contains 1 1 110,000 gal." This changes the CTS by moving the required volume of water in the ECST from the LCO to the Surveillance.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. ITS SR 3.0.1 states that failure to meet an SR is failure to meet the LCO. Therefore, moving the required volume from the LCO to the SR has no effect. This change is designated administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the specifications.

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.7.8 A.2 CTS 3.7.4.1 states, "Two service water loops (shared with Unit 2) shall be OPERABLE..." CTS 3.7.8 3.7.4.1 3.7.4.1 Applicability states, "Either Unit in MODES 1, 2, 3 or 4." CTS 3.7.4.1 Actions b, c, and e contain requirements to place both units in HOT STANDBY. ITS 3.7.8 does not contain references to both units. This changes CTS by deleting references to both units, and writing the requirements to apply to an individual unit in the Technical Specification. The purpose of CTS 3.7.4.1 regarding references to both units is to make it clear that OPERABILITY of the SW System affects both units.
This change is acceptable because both units are required to follow the Technical Specifications for their respective unit, and the SW System is a shared system. If a SW component is inoperable, both units enter the CONDITIONS applicable to their respective status. Therefore, eliminating the cross-unit references is an editorial change. This change is designated Page 5 of 13

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.7.8 A.3 CTS 3.7.4.1 Action a states, The provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable once 3.7.8 3.7.4.1 Action a component cooling heat exchanger flows are throttled." ITS 3.7.8 does not contain this exemption. This changes CTS by deleting a specific exemption to CTS 3.0.4. The purpose of the CTS 3.0.4 exemption is to provide an allowance to change MODES once the SW flow to the component cooling water (CC) heat exchangers has been throttled.
This change is acceptable because ITS 3.0.4 allows MODE changes while in CONDITIONS that permit continued operation for an unlimited period of time. CTS 3.7.4.1 ACTION a requires throttling of the SW flow to the CC heat exchanger within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> and then permits continued operation for an unlimited period of time. ITS 3.7.8 ACTION retains this REQUIRED ACTION and COMPLETION TIME. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.7.8 A.4 CTS 3.7.4.1 includes a footnote, designated "*", which allowed a temporary exemption from the N/A 3.7.4.1 footnote SW System LCO to allow system upgrades to be completed. ITS 3.7.8 does not contain the temporary exemption. This changes CTS by deleting a temporary exemption from CTS requirements. The purpose of the temporary exemption was to allow system upgrades to be completed.
This change is acceptable because the temporary exemption will no longer be valid at the time of ITS implementation. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.7.8 A.5 CTS 3.7.4.1 does not contain an explicit reference to isolating SW flow to individual SR 3.7.8.1 None components. ITS Surveillance 3.7.8.1 contains a Note that states, "Isolation of SW flow to individual components does not render the SW System inoperable." This changes CTS by adding an allowance is not explicitly stated in the CTS.
The purpose of the SW Technical Specification is to provide assurance that service water is available to the appropriate plant components. This change is acceptable because by current use and application of the CTS, isolation of a component supplied with service water does not result in the SW System being considered inoperable, but the respective component may be declared inoperable for its system. This change clarifies this application. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

ITS SR 3.7.8.2 requires verification that each SW System automatic valve in the flow path that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, actuates to the correct position on an actual or simulated actuation signal. This changes the CTS by adding the description that the valves must be in the flow path. Other changes are described in L.1, LA.5, LA.6, LA.8, and A.7.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.4. l.c.lI is to provide assurance that required SW valves are in their correct position. This change is acceptable because it clarifies that this requirement applies to valves in the SW flow path. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

CTS 4.7.4.I.c.2 4.7.4.1.c.2 requires verification that each automatic service water valve actuates to its correct position on an actual or simulated containment high-high signal. ITS SR 3.7.8.2 states, "Verify each SW System automatic valve in the flow path that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, actuates to the correct position on an actual or simulated actuation signal." This changes the CTS by combining the requirements for testing the two separate signals into one SR.
The purpose of the CTS 4.7.4. I.c. I and CTS 4.7.4.1.c.2 is to provide assurance that the required SW automatic valves actuate to their correct position on their respective actuation signals. ITS SR 3.7.8.2 retains this requirement. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.7.8 A.10 CTS 3.7.4.1 Action a states that when one service water pump is inoperable, the SW flow to the 3.7.8 3.7.4.1 Action a CC heat exchangers must be throttled in accordance with approved operating procedures to ensure the remaining service water pumps are capable of providing adequate flow to the RS heat exchangers. ITS 3.7.8 The purpose of CTS 3.7.4.1 Action a is to provide assurance that component cooling heat exchanger flow is throttled within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> of a SW pump inoperability so that the SW System is available when needed.
This change is acceptable because the requirement to perform the action in accordance with approved procedures is redundant to other Specifications. ITS Section 5.4.1 requires that written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering activities which include the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Regulatory Guide 1,33 Appendix A states that among the typical safety-related activities that should be covered by written procedures, list number 3, Procedures for Startup, Operation, and Shutdown of Safety-Related PWR Systems, instructions for energizing, filling, venting, draining, startup, shutdown, and changing modes of operation should be prepared, as appropriate, for systems which include item "in", "Service Water System". CTS 3/4.7.4. I Action a, throttling component cooling water heat exchanger flow, would be considered changing the mode of operation of the system. Therefore, deleting this statement from CTS 3.7.4.1 has no effect on plant operation. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS. Actions A. I and B. I require throttling of the SW flow to the CC heat exchangers to obtain the required RS heat exchanger flow. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement that the throttling be performed using approved operating procedures.

ITS LCO 3.7.9 states the UHS shall be 3.7.9.2 OPERABLE, and ITS SR 3.7.9.1 and SR 3.7.9.2 contain the parameter values for the Service Water Reservoir that must be met. This changes the CTS by moving the Service Water Reservoir parameter requirements to the SRs.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.5.1 is to provide assurance that the water in the UI4S can provide required cooling in case of an event. This change is acceptable because the parameter requirements for the UHS are retained, but are moved from the LCO to the SRs. These changes are designated as administrative because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.

CTS 4.7.7.1 does not include a VFTP, but the requirements that make up the VFTP are being moved to ITS 5.0. This changes CTS by requiring testing in accordance with the VFTP, whose requirements are being moved to ITS 5.0.
This change is acceptable because filter testing requirements are being moved to the VFTP as part of ITS 5.0, and ITS SR 3.7.10.2 references the VFTP for performing these tests. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.7.15 A.2 The ITS LCO 3.7.15 Note states, "The fuel building boundary may be opened intermittently 3.7.15 LCO Note None under administrative control." This allowance is not explicitly stated in CTS 3.9.12, but plant practice allows opening of the boundary under administrative controls for specific purposes such as fuel building access.
This change is acceptable because it reflects an existing plant practice necessary for the safe operation of the unit. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.7.15 A.3 CTS 3.9.12 refers to irradiated fuel movement within the "spent fuel pit." ITS 3.7.15 refers to 3.7.15 3.9.12 recently irradiated fuel movement within the fuel building. This changes the CTS by changing the reference to the location of the fuel movement.
This change is acceptable because all the fuel movement within the fuel building occurs within the spent fuel pit, and requirements associated with the fuel movements remain the same. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.7.15 A.4 CTS 3.9.12 Action c. states, "The provisions of Specification 3.0.3, 3.0.4 and 4.0.4 are not 3.7.15 Actions 3.9.12 Action c applicable." ITS 3.7.15 ACTION Note states, "LCO 3.0.3 is not applicable." ITS LCO 3.0.4, the Note, LCO 3.0.4 equivalent of CTS 3.0.4, states, "LCO 3.0.4 is only applicable for entry into a MODE or other and SR 3.0.4 specified condition in the Applicability in MODES I, 2, 3, and 4." ITS SR 3.0.4, the equivalent of CTS 4.0.4, states, "SR 3.0.4 is only applicable for entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability in MODES I, 2, 3, and 4." This changes CTS by deleting reference to an allowance already provided in a different portion of the ITS.
This change is acceptable because ITS LCO 3.0.4 and ITS SR 3.0.4 requirements are consistent with those stated in the CTS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

CTS 3.7.3.1 states that the CC loops are shared by the units. The Applicability applies when either unit is in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4. Actions a, b, and c contain requirements on both units.
ITS 3.7.19 is written to apply to a single unit. The change to the LCO is described in DOC LA.1I.
The change to the Applicability and the Actions are administrative changes necessary to be consistent with the change to the LCO. This presentation is also consistent with the presentation used in ITS LCO 3.7.8, Service Water System, which is a similar shared system.
This change is acceptable because both units are required to follow the Technical Specifications and CC is a shared system. If a required CC subsystem is inoperable, both units are affected.
The CC applies to each unit that is in the Applicability, so if either unit is in MODE I, 2, 3, or 4, the CC System is required to be OPERABLE. If one or more CC subsystems are inoperable, ACTIONS must be entered on both units if both are in the Applicable MODES. Therefore, eliminating the cross-unit references is an administrative change. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

Each unit's service water system requirements consist of the above requirements for either unit operating in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4.
CTS LCO 3.7.3.1, Component Cooling Water System - Operating, requires three component cooling water subsystems (shared with the other unit) shall be OPERABLE. This requirement must be met with either unit is in MODES I, 2, 3, or 4. ITS LCO 3.7.10 specifies the requirements for the Main Control Room (MCR) / Emergency Switchgear Room (ESGR)
Habitability System. This system requires the MCR and ESGR fans on both units to be OPERABLE in MODES 1,2, 3, and 4 and during the movement of recently irradiated fuel assemblies. ITS LCO 3.7.12 requires the fans from the Auxiliary Building central exhaust system to be OPERABLE to support the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) Pump Room Exhaust Air Cleanup System. This could require a fan powered from the other unit to be required for this unit. The SW and CC pumps and the fans from the MCR/ESGR and Auxiliary Building exhaust ventilation systems are components that may be required by either or both units. Therefore, these pumps and fans are classified as "shared components," for the electrical power requirements. ITS LCO 3.8.1 Action J states, "Two required LCO 3.8.1.c EDGs inoperable, declare shared components inoperable immediately." This changes the CTS by specifically stating the requirement in the ITS Action J.
The purpose of the proposed change is to structure the existing electrical requirements for the shared components in the ITS by placing electrical requirements in ITS section 3.8. This change is acceptable because the AC sources requirements for the SW, CC, MCR/ESGR Emergency Habitability System, and ECCS Pump Room Exhaust Cleanup System functions are contained in the electrical requirement section of the unit's Technical Specifications. The additional requirements of the fans in the ventilation specifications are addressed by more restrictive discussion of changes to the CTS requirements. The additional electrical requirements are classified as administrative because of the systems may require electrical power from both units in order to satisfy the individual safety function. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

[ ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.1 A.3 CTS 3.8.1.1 Action c applies, "With one offsite circuit and one EDG inoperable." In this condition an emergency bus may be de-energized. CTS LCO 3.8.2.1 provides an Action for an emergency bus that is de-energized. A Note to ITS 3.8.1 Action IH in the Required Actions column states, "Enter applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.8.9, "Distribution System - Operating," when Condition H is entered with no AC power source to any train." TFile addition of the Note does not alter the technical requirements of the CTS and acts as only a reminder to enter appropriate Actions.
This change is acceptable because no changes are made to CTS requirements. The change in format from the CTS to the ITS maintains all technical requirements. The addition of the Note only acts as a reminder to enter all appropriate Actions if any emergency bus becomes de energized. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

North Anna Power Station CTS 3.8.1.1 Actions b. I and b.2 provide an allowance to have an EDG inoperable for up to 14 days. These Actions require the OPERABILITY of the alternate AC (AAC) diesel generator (DG) and the opposite unit's EDGs at the time of the initial inoperability of the EDG and throughout the 14 day allowed outage time. If either the AAC DG or either of the opposite unit's EDGs become inoperable when relied on for this action, a seventy two-hour limit is imposed for the EDG. If the AAC DG and both of the opposite unit's EDGs are returned to an OPERABLE status within the 72-hour limit, the EDG may continue in the 14 day allowed outage. ITS Action B provides the necessary Required Actions for returning the inoperable EDG to OPERABLE status within 14 days. ITS Action C requires with an EDG inoperable and one or more of the opposite unit's EDGs or the AAC DG inoperable, both of the opposite unit's EDGs and the AAC DG must be restored to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or restore the ITS 3.8.1.b EDG to OPERABLE status. A Note to ITS Condition C states that the condition is only applicable if either the AAC DG or the opposite unit EDG(s) is inoperable.
This change is acceptable because no technical requirements are added to or deleted from the current requirements. The change in format of the CTS, with the conversion to the ITS, maintains all technical requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

ITS Required Action B.1 states that SR 3.8.1.1 will be performed for offsite circuit(s). It also requires in Required Action B.3, an evaluation of the OPERABLE EDG is made.
With the requirements of the CTS stated in this manner, CTS 3.8.1.1 Action c repeated the requirements of Action b, for the performance of CTS requirement 4.8.1. 1.La and the evaluation of the OPERABLE EDG. This requirement is redundant and therefore is eliminated.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements remain the same. If an offsite circuit and an EDG become inoperable at the same time, the requirement to perform a breaker and power availability check on the OPERABLE offsite circuit and an evaluation or start on the OPERABLE EDG, continue to be required. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.1 A.6 CTS 3.8.1.1, Action d, applies when two offsite circuits are inoperable and requires one offsite 3.8.1, ACrIONS A 3.8.1. 1, Actions a circuit be restored to OPERABLE status within twenty-four hours, or be in at least HOT and G and d STANDBY within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. The requirement also states, "Following restoration of one offsite source, follow Action Statement a with the time requirement of that Action Statement based on the time of initial loss of the remaining inoperable offsite A.C. circuit." CTS Action a states, "Restore the offsite circuit to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or be in at least HOT STANDBY within the next six hours and COLD SHUTDOWN within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />."
If both inoperable offsite circuits are not restored when the unit reaches HOT STANDBY, the required actions do not specify any further actions. With the unit in HOT STANDBY and no offsite circuits, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered. This requires the unit to be placed in HOT SHUTDOWN in 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and COLD SHUTDOWN within the next 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. ITS Actions A and G are constructed to track the inoperability of one and two offsite circuits. ITS Action A requires an inoperable offsite circuit be restored to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. ITS Action G must be entered when two circuits are concurrently inoperable and allows 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to restore one offsite circuit to OPERABLE status. If ITS Actions A or G are not met within either allowed Completion Times, ITS Action K must be entered and requires the unit to be place in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. This changes maintains the technical requirements of the CTS requirements in the ITS format.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements remain the same. The ITS requires multiple condition entry. Therefore, ITS Actions A and G would both be entered if two offsite circuits were inoperable and Action A would be followed until both offsite circuits were restored to OPERABLE status. This has the same effect as the CTS requirements. Therefore, the deletion of the wording in CTS 3.8.1.1 Action d does not modify the technical requirements of the CTS and the unit would be required to be in MODE 5 (COLD SHUTDOWN) within 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> after reducing to MODE 3 (HOT STANDBY).

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.1 A.7 CTS 3.8.1.1 Action e applies when two EDGs are inoperable and requires one EDG to be 3.8.1, ACTIONS B 3.8.1.1,-Action s b restored to OPERABLE status within two hours. This requirement also states, "demonstrate the and I and e OPERABILITY of two offsite A.C. circuits by performing Surveillance Requirement 4.8.1.1.

In addition the CTS requires, "Following restoration of one EDG, follow Action Statement b. with the time requirement of that Action Statement based on the time of initial loss of the remaining inoperable EDG."
ITS Actions B and I are constructed to track the inoperability of one and two EDGs. ITS Action B requires that each inoperable EDG be tracked and ITS Action I applies when both EDGs are inoperable. Therefore, ITS Action B must be entered if one or two EDGs are inoperable and requires the performance of SR 3.8. I.1 within one hour and every eight hours thereafter. This maintains the CTS requirement to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of two offsite AC circuits within an hour and every 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> thereafter when one or two EDGs are inoperable.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements remain the same. The ITS requires multiple condition entry. Therefore, ITS Actions B and I would both be entered if two EDGs were inoperable and Action B would be followed until both EDGs were restored to OPERABLE status. This has the same effect as the CTS requirements. Therefore, the deletion of the wording in CTS 3.8.1.1 Action e does not modify the technical requirements of the CTS and the unit would be required to be in MODE 5 (COLD SHUTDOWN) within 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> after reducing to MODE 3 (HOT STANDBY). This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.1 A.8 CTS LCO 3.8.l1.1 does not contain an Action for more than two sources of either offsite circuits 3.8. 1, ACTION M LCO 3.8.1.1 or EDGs inoperable. Having more than two sources inoperable requires entering CTS LCO 3.0.3. ITS 3.8. 1, Action M, requires entering LCO 3.0.3 immediately if three or more AC sources are inoperable.
The change is acceptable because the CTS Actions for more than two sources inoperable are the same as the ITS Actions. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

CTS LCO 3.7.4. 1, Service Water System - Operating, states, "Two service water loops (shared with the other unit) shall be OPERABLE with each loop consisting of two OPERABLE service water pumps (excluding auxiliary service water pumps) with their associated normal and emergency power supplies, and an OPERABLE flow path." Each unit's service water system specification applies when either unit is operating in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4. CTS LCO 3.7.3.*1, Component Cooling Water System - Operating, requires three component cooling water subsystems (shared with the other unit) shall be OPERABLE. This requirement must be met with either unit is in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4. ITS LCO 3.7.10 specifies the requirements for tile Main Control Room (MCR) / Emergency Switchgear Room (ESGR) Habitability System. This system requires the MCR and ESGR fans on both units to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 and during the movement of recently irradiated fuel assemblies. ITS LCO 3.7.12 requires the fans from the Auxiliary Building central exhaust system to be OPERABLE to support tile Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) Pump Room Exhaust Air Cleanup System. This could require a fan powered from the other unit to be required for this unit. The SW and CC pumps and the fans from the ventilation systems are components that may be required by either or both units. Therefore, these pumps and fans are classified as "shared components," for the electrical power requirements. ITS LCO 3.8. I, "AC Sources," part c states, "One qualified circuit between the offsite transmission network and the onsite Class 1IE AC Electrical Power Distribution System and one EDG capable of supplying the onsite Class I E AC power distribution subsystem on the other unit for each required shared component; and." This change maintains the CTS requirements for AC sources in the ITS format.
The purpose of the proposed change is to structure the existing electrical requirements for the shared components in the ITS by placing electrical requirements in ITS Section 3.8. This change is acceptable because the AC sources requirements for the SW, CC, MCR/ESGR Emergency Habitability System, and ECCS Pump Room Exhaust Cleanup System functions are moved to the electrical requirement section of the unit's Technical Specifications. The additional requirements of the fans in the ventilation specifications are addressed by more restrictive discussion of changes to the CTS requirements. The movement of tile electrical requirements is classified as administrative because of the systems may require electrical power from both units in order to satisfy the individual safety function. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.1 A. 10 CTS SR 4.8.1.1.2.a.4 states "Verifying the EDG can start ** and voltage and frequency at 4160 +/-
SR 3.8.1.2 4.8. 1.1.2.a.4 420 volts and 60 +/- 0.5 Hz." The note ** states, "This test shall be conducted in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations regarding engine prelube and warmup procedures, and as applicable regarding loading recommendations." ITS SR 3.8.1.2 states, "Verify each EDG starts from standby conditions and achieves steady state voltage of> 3740 V to _< 4580 V, and the frequency from >Ž59.5 Hz to <*60.5 Hz." Two Notes modify SR 3.8.1.2. Note I states, "All EDG starts may be preceded by an engine prelube period and followed by a warm up period prior to loading." Note 2 states, "A modified EDG start involving idling and gradual acceleration to synchronous speed may be used for this SR as recommended by the manufacturer, When a modified start procedures are not used, the time, voltage, and frequency tolerances of SR 3.8.1.7 must be met." This changes the CTS by specifically stating the requirements and allowances in the ITS format.
This change is acceptable because the requirements of the CTS are maintained in the ITS requirements. ITS Note I maintains the allowances provided by the CTS note for a prelube and warmup period prior to loading. ITS Note 2 establishes that ITS SR 3.8.1.2 may involve idling and gradual acceleration to synchronous speed and SR 3.8.1.2 may be credited when performing SR 3.8.1.7. This is acceptable because the CTS note allows loading in accordance with loading recommendations and SR 3.8.1.7 meets or exceeds the technical requirements of SR 3.8.1.2. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.1 A. 11 CTS SR 4.8.1.1.2.a.4 states after a successful start of the EDG, "Subsequently, verifying the SR 3.8.1.3 4.8.1.1.2.a.4 generator is synchronized, gradually loaded ** to an indicated 2500 - 2600 kW *** and operates for at least 60 minutes." CTS notes ** and *** allow the test to be conducted in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations regarding engine warmup and loading. These notes also allow momentary variations in loads, due to changing in bus loads, to not invalidate the test. ITS SR 3.8.1.3 states, "Verify each EDG is synchronized and loaded and operates for > 60 minutes at a load > 2500 kW and
- 2600 kW." Four Notes modify the SR. Notes I and 2 allow EDG loading as recommended by the manufacturer and momentary transients outside the load range to not invalidate the test. Notes 3 and 4 are addressed by DOC M.6.
This change is acceptable because Notes I and 2 in ITS SR maintain the allowances provided by the CTS notes. The changes to the notes are editorial and conform to the format of the ISTS.
This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.1 A. 13 CTS requirement 4.8.1.1.2.c states that the EDG shall be started at least once per 184 days and SR 3.8.1.7, 4.8.1.1.2.c manually synchronized to its appropriate emergency bus, gradually loaded** to an indicated SR 3.8.1.3 Note 2500 to 2600 kW***, and operated for at least 60 minutes. ITS SR 3.8.1.7 requires the start of the EDG every 184 days. ITS SRs 3.8.1.3 requires the synchronization and loading of the EDG from 2500 to 2600 kW for a period of 60 minutes. SR 3.8.1.3 contains a Note, which states that the requirement shall be preceded by and immediately follows without shutdown a successful performance of SR 3.8.1.2 or SR 3.8.1.7. This changes the CTS by eliminating the duplicated requirements of 4.8.1.1.2.c (ITS SR 3.8.1.7), which are now contained in ITS SR 3.8.1.3 (CTS SR 4.8.1.1.2.a.4).
This change is acceptable because the division of the current requirement 4.8.1.1.2.c into r]'S SR 3.8.1.2 or SR 3.8.1.7 and 3.8.1.3 maintains the requirements of starting, synchronizing with the emergency bus, and fully loading the EDG for 60 minutes. Additional changes to requirement 4.8.1.1.2.c are discussed in other discussion of changes. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.1 A. 14 CTS requirements 4.8.1.1.2.d.2, d.3, d.5, and d.8 require the testing of the EDGs, at least once SR 3.8. 1. 10, 4.8.1.1.2.d.2, d.3, per 18 months "during shutdown." ITS SRs 3.8.1.10, 3.8.1.15, 3.8.1.16 and 3.8.1.17 incorporate SR 3.8.1.15, d.5, and d.8 this requirement and state it as a Note. The Note states, "This Surveillance shall not be SR 3.8.1.16 and performed in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4." This changes the CTS by specifically stating the applicable SR3.8.l.17 MODES of operation that the SRs may be performed.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirements for testing the AC sources do not specifically state the MODES in which the tests must be performed, but simply state "during shutdown." The ITS SRs' Note provides specific MODES in which test is not to be performed.
With the unit in MODE 5, 6, or defueled (no MODE), the performance of these required tests can be conducted with minimum effects on the electrical system for the EDG that is not required to be OPERABLE. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

ITS SR 3.8.1.13 states in Note 1, "Momentary transients outside the load range to not invalidate the test." The portion of the Note that addresses the power factor limitation is discussed later in these discussions of changes.

The CTS footnote *** allows momentary variations in loads, due to changes in bus loads to not invalidate the test. ITS SR 3.8.1.14 states in Note 1, "This Surveillance shall be performed within 5 minutes of shutting down the EDG after the EDG has operated > 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> loaded Ž_ 2500 kW and < 2600 kW or after operating temperatures have stabilized." The Note I also allows, "Momentary transients outside the load range to not invalidate the test."
This change is acceptable because Note I of the ITS SR maintains the requirement provided in the CTS. The changes to the requirements and note are editorial and conform to the format of the ISTS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS 3.8.1 A. 17 Unit I CTS Surveillance Requirement 4.8.1.1.1.b states that the independent circuits between the SR 3.8.1.8, Note Unit I 4.8.I. 1. L.b offsite transmission network and the onsite Class I E distribution system shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once per 18 months during shutdown by manually transferring the onsite Class IlE power supply from the normal circuit to the alternate circuit. This SR for unit 2 has been eliminated by DOC L.7. ITS SR 3.8.1.8 states, "Verify manual transfer of AC power sources from the normal offsite circuit to the alternate required offsite circuit. The SR is modified by a Note that states, "This Surveillance is only applicable to Unit I." This changes the CTS by specifically stating that the SR is only to Unit I.
This change is acceptable because SR 4.8..1l.1.b has been deleted for Unit 2. The purpose of the note is to limit the SR to be required for Unit I. This change is designated as administrative because the addition of the Note does not result in a technical change to the Unit I CTS.

The output breaker overcurrent for the EDG is not a trip for the diesel and should not be included in the exception. ITS SR 3.8.1.12 requires the verification of each EDG's automatic trips are bypassed on an actual or simulated automatic start signal except for engine overspeed and generator differential current. This changes the CTS by eliminating the EDG output breaker overcurrent from the list of EDG trips.
This change is acceptable because the output breaker overcurrent does not provide a trip of the EDG.
With the deletion of the output breaker overcurrent, no technical requirement is added or deleted with the conversion of the CTS requirements to the ITS requirements. The output breaker overcurrent should not have been included in the CTS requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Each unit's service water system 3.8. 1, Action F specification applies when either unit is operating in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4. CTS LCO 3.7.3.1, Component Cooling Water System - Operating, requires three component cooling water subsystems (shared with the other unit) shall be OPERABLE. This requirement must be met with either unit is in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4. ITS LCO 3.7.10 specifies the requirements for the Main Control Room (MCR) / Emergency Switchgear Room (ESGR) Habitability System. This system requires the MCR and ESGR fans on both units to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 and during the movement of recently irradiated fuel assemblies. ITS LCO 3.7.12 requires the fans from the Auxiliary Building central exhaust system to be OPERABLE to support the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) Pump Room Exhaust Air Cleanup System. This could require a fan powered from the other unit to be required for this unit. The SW and CC pumps and the fans from the ventilation systems are components that may be required by either or both units. Therefore, these pumps and fans are classified as "shared components," for the electrical power requirements. ITS 3.8. lAction F states if the required offsite circuit and EDG on the other unit that support a required shared components become inoperable, the supported shared components will be declared inoperable immediately. The differences between the requirements for the shared systems of the CTS and the ITS are addressed in ITS LCOs 3.7.8, 3.7.10, 3.7.12, and 3.7.19. This change maintains the CTS requirements in the ITS format.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements of the CTS are maintained in the ITS. Ifra shared components is required to be OPERABLE for this unit and the pump or fan is powered from the other unit's electrical system, the loss of the normal and emergency AC source would required the pump or fan to be declared inoperable and appropriate Action for the affected system to be entered. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

The non-critical trips do not include engine overspeed, generator differential, and EDG output breaker overcurrent. The output breaker overcurrent is addressed in DOC A,.18. ITS 3.8.1.12 states, "Verify each EDG's automatic trip are bypassed on actual or simulated automatic start signal except engine overspeed and generator differential current. This changes the CTS specifically stating that the non-critical EDG trips are bypassed on any automatic start signal. The specific automatic start signal is moved to the ITS Bases by DOC LA.].
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements remain unchanged.
The EDGs will continue to have their non-critical trips verified to be bypassed on a start from a signal from either an ESF or loss of voltage signal. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

ITS 3.8.2 Action B adds a Note to these requirements that states, "Enter applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.8.10, with one required train de-energized as a result of Condition B." Other changes to CTS ACTION are addressed in by additional discussion of changes in this section. The purpose of the Note is to remind the user that if an emergency bus becomes de-energized with the loss of the offsite circuit and the required EDG, ITS LCO 3.8.10 would be entered for specific Required Actions.
The change is acceptable because the requirements of the CTS would require an evaluation of potential Actions for inoperable buses and equipment. The change is designated as administrative because the Note only acts as a reminder to enter all necessary specifications for a specific condition and does not change the technical requirements of the CTS.
In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 1431, Rev. 1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
CTS LCOs 3.8.1.1 and 3.8.1.2 state the requirements for the electrical power sources - operating and shutdown. These requirements are used to form the LCO and Applicability for tile diesel fuel oil and starting air systems. ITS LCO 3.8.3, "Diesel Fuel Oil and Starting Air," states "The stored diesel fuel oil and starting air subsystems shall be within limits for each required emergency diesel generator (EDG)." The Applicability for these requirements are, "When associated EDG is required to be OPERABLE. The addition of the starting air requirements is addressed in DOC M. 1. This changes the CTS by stating the LCO and Applicability requirements for the diesel fuel oil in the ITS format.
This change is acceptable because the current requirements are translated into ITS form with no technical changes. The fuel oil is a support system for each EDG that is required to maintain the EDG's OPERABILITY. The CTS and ITS maintain this relationship between the EDGs and the fuel oil system without any changes in the technical requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.3 A.3 CTS LCO 3.8.1.1 states the requirements for the diesel fuel oil in the LCO, Action, and 3.8.3 ACTIONS LCO 3.8. 1. 1, Surveillance Requirements for the EDGs when the unit is operating. CTS LCO 3.8.1.2 lists the Note LCO 3.8.1.2 requirements for diesel fuel oil in the LCO, Action, and Surveillance Requirements when the unit is in a shutdown condition. Both CTS 3.8.1.1 and 3.8.1.2 provide tile requirements on the fuel oil system needed to support the OPERABILITY of the associated EDG. ITS 3.8.3 Actions are provided with a Note that states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each EDG." The addition of the Note provides clarity to the CTS by specifically stating that a separate entry is allowed for each EDG.
This change is acceptable because each EDG is provided with an independent source for starting air. Each EDG requires an independent fuel oil supply by separate transfer lead and backup pumps and day tank. The requirements of the CTS deal only the fuel oil requirements and separate condition entry is allowed by the current requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.3 A.4 CTS 3.8. 1.1 Actions do not specifically state Required Actions for an EDG if sufficient fuel oil is 3.8.3, Condition F 3.8.1.1 Actions not available. ITS Condition F states, "Required Action and associated Completion Time not met, or one or more EDGs diesel fuel oil or starting air systems not within limits for reasons other than Condition A, B, C, D, or E, declare associated EDG inoperable immediately." Starting air requirements are addressed in DOC M. I. This changes the CTS by specifically stating that if Actions are not met, the associated EDG would be declared inoperable.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirements are structured as a support system for EDGs OPERABILITY. Specifically stating the requirement to declare the EDG(s) inoperable does not change the technical intent of the current requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.3 A.5 CTS Surveillance 4.8.1.1.2 specifies that each EDG shall be tested in accordance with CTS Table SR 3.8.3.1 4.8.1.1.2, 4.8.2. This requirement is modified in ITS Section 3.8.1 and specifies the frequency of testing an 4.8.1.1.2.a.2 EDG as 31 days. CTS requirement 4.8.1.1.2.a.2 requires the verification of fuel oil tank level to support the OPERABILITY of the EDG. ITS SR 3.8.3.1 requires verification of fuel oil volume every 3 1 days. This changes the CTS by specifically stating the frequency for verification of fuel oil tank level as 31 days.
This change is acceptable because the requirements in LCO 3.8.1 specify the testing frequency of the EDG. The fuel oil level is verified to ensure OPERABILITY of the EDG. Therefore, the frequency of the testing is dependent on the testing requirements of the EDG. This change reflects the requirements of the CTS in the ITS format. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.3 A.6 CTS LCO 3.8.1.I.b.2 states that the fuel storage system consists of two under ground storage 3.8.3 Condition B 3.8.1.1.b.2 tanks each containing a minimum of 45,000 gallons of fuel and this is a shared system between units. ITS Condition B states, "One or more EDGs with fuel oil inventory < 90,000 gallons....
and SR 3.8.3.1 requires the verification of "fuel oil inventory of > 90,000 gal of fuel." This changes the CTS by stating the total inventory requirement of fuel oil instead of the individual fuel oil tank requirement.
The purpose of CTS 3.8.1I. lb.2 is to require sufficient fuel oil inventory for two EDGs to operate at full load for 7 days as required to support the accident analysis. This change is acceptable because the total inventory requirement for the EDG fuel oil system of 90,000 gallons remain the same. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.8.4 A. 1 In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 143 1, Rev. 1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.

I for the EDG batteries require, at least once per 18 months, the verification that battery cells, cell plates, and battery racks show no visual indication of physical damage or abnormal deterioration. ITS SR 3.8.4.3 requires the verification of station and EDG battery cells, cell plates, and racks show no visual indication of physical damage or abnormal deterioration that could degrade battery performance. This changes the CTS requirements by adding the clarification, "that could degrade battery performance."
This change is acceptable because the intent of the CTS is maintained in the ITS requirements.
The ITS adds a clarifying statement that expresses the CTS requirements with no modifications to technical requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Each battery is tested every 60 months to ensure capacity is at least 80% of the manufacturer's rating during a performance discharge test. A discharge test is required every 18 months if the battery shows signs of degradation, or has reached 85% of its service life. ITS SR 3.8.4.9 requires the verification of the station and EDG battery capacity > 80% of the manufacturer's rating when subjected to a performance discharge test or a modified performance discharge test. The allowance of the modified performance discharge test is addressed in a less restrictive change L. I. The Frequency requirements for the SR are 60 and 18 months when the battery shows degradation or has reached 85% of expected life. This change retains the CTS requirements for the batteries by expressing the testing requirements in a conditional Frequency.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements of the CTS are maintained in the ITS requirements. The re-arrangement of the SR in the ITS format does not add or delete any required testing of the CTS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.4 A.4 CTS Surveillance Requirement 4.8.1.1.3 provides the testing requirements and acceptance LCO 3.8.4 4.8.1.1.3 criteria for determining EDG DC system OPERABILITY. These requirements relate to the OPERABILITY of the associated EDG in LCO 3.8.1.1. ITS LCO 3.8.4 is constructed to include the LCO, Condition, and SRs for the EDG's DC system. This change retains the CTS requirements for the EDG's DC system and ensures the EDG's OPERABILITY requirements are maintained.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirements for the EDG's DC requirements are maintained in the ITS format without any technical requirements being modified. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.4 A.5 CTS LCO 3.8.2.3 is modified with the requirement that the DC electrical power subsystem on the LCO 3.8.4 LCO 3.8.2.3, other unit that supplies the DC electrical power for each required Service Water (SW) pump must LCO 3.7.4.1 be OPERABLE for this unit. This requirement is derived from the CTS LCO 3.7.4.1, Service Water System - Operating. ITS LCO 3.8.4 states that the following DC electrical power subsystems shall be OPERABLE, including, "One DC electrical power subsystem on the other unit for each required shared component." This maintains the CTS requirements for the shared components, powered from the other unit that are required by this unit.
This change is acceptable because the electrical requirement contained in CTS LCO 3.7.4.1 is moved into the appropriate LCO of the ITS without technical change. The required DC subsystems of the other unit must be required to be OPERABLE for this unit in order to maintain the required shared components OPERABLE. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Table A - Administrative Changes ITS Section 3.8 - Electrical Power Systems DOC No, Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.4 A.6 CTS LCO 3.8.2.3 Actions are modified with the requirement that the DC electrical power LCO 3.8.4, LCO 3.8.2.3 subsystem on the other unit that supplies the DC electrical power for each required shared Condition D components that must be OPERABLE for this unit. This requirement is derived from the CTS LCO 3.7.4.1, Service Water System - Operating. ITS LCO 3.8.4 Condition D states, "one or more required LCO 3.8.4.c DC electrical power subsystem(s) inoperable, declare associated shared component(s) inoperable, immediately." A Note that states "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each DC subsystem" modifies condition D. This maintains the CTS requirements for the shared components, powered from the other unit that are required by this unit.
This change is acceptable because the electrical requirement contained in CTS LCO 3.7.4.1 are moved into the appropriate Condition of the ITS without technical change. If the required DC subsystems of the other unit become inoperable for the required shared components, then the shared components will be declared inoperable immediately. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.5 A.1 In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 1431, Rev. 1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.8.5 A.2 CTS 4.8.1.2 requires the performance of Surveillance Requirement 4.8.1.1.3 for a required EDG.

4.8.1.1.3 the EDG required by LCO 3.8.2, 'AC Sources - Shutdown."' ITS Action B states that with the required EDG DC system inoperable, enter the applicable Conditions and Required Actions for the associated EDG immediately. This changes the CTS requirements by specifying the EDG DC subsystems shall be OPERABLE and providing Required Actions for an inoperable EDG DC subsystem.
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirements for the EDGs' DC systems are maintained in the conversion to the ITS requirements. The DC system is required when the supported EDG is required to be OPERABLE. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.8.6 A.2 CTS testing requirements for station and EDG batteries are contained in Surveillance LCO 3.8.6, 4.8.2.3.2, Requirements 4.8.2.3.2 and 4.8.1.1.3. ITS LCO 3.8.6 is structured to implement the CTS SRs in 3.8.6 Applicability, 4.8.1.1.3 a standard format for the battery cell parameters. The LCO states, "Battery cell parameters for ACTIONS Note station Train H and Train J, and EDG batteries shall be within limits." Tile Applicability for the LCO is stated as, "When associated DC electrical power subsysterns or EDG DC systems are required to be OPERABLE." A Note is added for the proposed Actions that states, "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each battery." This changes the CTS by specifying an LCO, Applicability, and Note for the Actions that do not currently exist.
The change is acceptable because these requirements continue to ensure the OPERABILITY for the station and EDG batteries. The specific addition of the ITS LCO, Applicability, and Note does not change any technical requirement of the CTS requirements, but provides a clarifying statement for the current requirements. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.6 A.3 CTS 4.8.2.3.2 and 4.8.1.1.3 Surveillance Requirements provide testing requirements for the 3.8.6, ACTION B 4.8.2.3.2, station and EDG batteries. The requirements include the Category A and B limits of Table 4.8-3 4.8.1.1.3, for the station and EDG batteries, and electrolyte temperature for station batteries. CTS Table Table 4.8-3 4.8-3 lists the allowable value limit for battery cell parameters under Category B limits. ITS LCO 3.8.6 Action B lists three Conditions for the associated batteries. TFile first Condition is Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition A not met. Condition A specifies, for station and EDG batteries cell parameters not within Category A or B limits, specific Required Actions to be performed to ensure OPERABILITY of the battery. The second Condition of Action B states one or more station batteries with average electrolyte temperature for the representative cells < 60 'F. The third Condition states one or more station or EDG batteries with one or more battery cell parameters not within Table 3.8.6-1 Category C values.
The associated battery is declared inoperable immediately if any part of the Condition B is met.
This changes the CTS by specifying specific Conditions for ITS Action B.
The change is acceptable because these requirements ensure the station and EDG batteries are verified within specified parameters or the battery is declared inoperable. This is the intent of the CTS requirements on the battery cell parameters listed in a Note to Table 4.8-3. Other changes to the battery cell parameters are addressed in more and less restrictive changes in these discussion of changes. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.6 A.4 CTS LCO 3.7.4.1 requires the normal and emergency power supplies to be OPERABLE for the LCO 3.8.6 LCO 3.7.4.1 required Service Water pumps. Requirements for Main Control Room and Emergency Switchgear Room fans and Auxiliary Building central exhaust fans may require electrical power from the other unit. ITS LCO 3.8.6 is modified to include the Station and EDG batteries on the other unit that are required to support shared components that are powered for the other unit.
This change maintains the CTS requirements in the ITS format.
The change is acceptable because these requirements ensure the station and EDG batteries that are needed to support shared components on the other unit, needed for this unit, are maintained OPERABLE. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

.LC-O--3.8.2.I1I-CTS 3.8.2.1 for the Onsite Power Distribution Systems lists A.C. Distribution - uperating requirements. CTS LCO 3.8.2.1 states, "The following A. C. electrical busses shall be OPERABLE." The requirement specifies 4 120-volt AC electrical buses are energized from their associated inverter. The inverter receives its power from the associated DC bus. ITS LCO 3.8.7, "Inverters - Operating" requires the H and J Train inverters to be OPERABLE. This changes the CTS by dividing the onsite AC power system into sources and distribution systems.
This change is acceptable because the ITS divides the requirements for the electrical sources from the electrical power distribution systems but does not change the technical requirements.
The inverters provide the regulated 120-volt AC electrical source(s) for the 120 VAC distribution systems. The 120 VAC distribution systems are addressed by ITS LCO 3.8.9, "Distribution Systems - Operating." This change retains the technical requirements for the inverters. This i....

This changes the CTS by specifying the 120 VAC inverter as the electrical power source for the 120-volt AC bus.
This change is acceptable because the ITS divides the requirements for the electrical sources from the electrical power distribution systems. The inverters provide the regulated 120-volt AC electrical source(s) for the 120 VAC distribution systems. As a result the ITS states the requirement in terms of the inverter, while the CTS states the requirement in terms of the bus.
However, the technical requirements remain unchanged. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.7 A.4 CTS 3.8.2.1 Action c. states that with the AC Vital bus not energized from its associated inverter, 3.8.7, ACTION A 3.8.2. 1, Action c re-energize the AC Vital bus from its associated inverter within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. ITS LCO 3.8.7, Action Note A, states that with one inverter inoperable, restore the inverter to OPERABLE status within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The Action is modified by a Note that states, "Enter applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.8.9, "Distribution Systems - Operating" with any vital bus de-energized."
This changes the CTS by providing a reminder to take action for the AC vital bus system that may be affected by the inoperability of an inverter.
This change is acceptable because the ITS separates the requirements of the electrical sources from the distribution systems without changing the technical requirements. The inoperability of the source may lead to the de-energized bus. Therefore, the user is reminded to enter the appropriate Conditions that may occur from the inoperable electrical source. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.8 A. I In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 143 1, Rev. 1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.8.8 A.2 CTS LCO 3.8.2.2 states that as a minimum either the H or J train AC and DC buses shall be LCO 3.8.8 LCO 3.8.2.2 OPERABLE. The 1-I train specifies the two 120 VAC buses (I-I and 1-2 or 2-1 and 2) are energized from their associated inverter. The J train similarly states that the two 120 VAC buses (1-3 and 1-4 or 2-3 and 2-4) are energized from their associated inverter. ITS LCO 3.8.8 states, "Inverters shall be OPERABLE to support the onsite Class I E AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystem(s) required by LCO 3.8.10, 'Distribution System - Shutdown."' This changes the CTS by dividing the inverter and distribution requirements into two specifications This change is acceptable because the requirement for inverters to provide electrical power for the AC buses remains unchanged. The inverters provide the associated AC bus with the necessary power to energize the bus. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS..

N/A N/A 3.8.9 A.3 ITS Action G states that with two trains of inoperable distribution subsystems that result in a loss 3.8.9 ACTION G None of safety function, enter LCO 3.0.3 immediately. The CTS does not include this specific requirement. This changes the CTS by specifically requiring entry into LCO 3.0.3 when a loss of function occurs.
This change is acceptable because CTS LCO 3.0.3 would be entered when a LCO is not met and there are no Conditions or Required Actions stated. The loss of more than one bus continues to require the entry into LCO 3.0.3 in the CTS and ITS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTI'S.
3.8.9 A.4 CTS LCO 3.8.2.1 states that the following AC electrical busses shall be OPERABLE and LCO 3.8.9 LCO 3.8.2.1, energized with the tie breakers open between redundant busses. These buses include H and J LCO 3.8.2.3 trains of AC 4160 and 480 volts subsystems. This requirement also includes that each of the four 120-volt AC vital buses is energized from its associated inverter that is powered from an associated 125-volt DC bus. CTS LCO 3.8.2.3 requires the following DC bus trains to be energized and OPERABLE with tie breakers between bus trains open. The trains consists of two 125-volt DC buses, two batteries, and a charger. The makeup of (he 4160, 480, and 120 volt AC buses and the DC buses is addressed by DOC LA.2. The requirement that all buses are energized is addressed by DOC LA.I. ITS LCO 3.8.9 requires that the I-I and J Trains ofAC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems shall be OPERABLE. This changes the CTS by combining the requirements for AC and DC distribution systems into one specification.
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements of the CTS are maintained in the ITS requirements. The CTS and the ITS require the various AC and DC subsystems to be OPERABLE. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Description of Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 3.8.9 A.5 CTS LCO 3.7.4.1 requires the normal and emergency power supplies to be OPERABLE for the LCO 3.8.9 LCO 3.7.4.1 required Service Water pumps. The Control Room ventilation fails, the Auxiliary Building central exhaust fans, and the Component Cooling Water (CC) pumps may require electrical power from the other unit for the pumps and fans to be considered OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.8.9, Actions, and Surveillance Requirements are modified to include the electrical distribution systems on the other unit that are required to support shared components that are powered for the other unit. This change maintains the CTS requirements in the ITS format.
The change is acceptable because these requirements ensure the electrical distribution systems that are needed to support shared components on the other unit, needed for this unit, are maintained OPERABLE. This is the intent of the CTS requirements in LCO 3.7.4.1 for the required shared components are to ensure all electrical system necessary to power these components. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
3.8.10 A.I In the conversion of the North Anna Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Various Various Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG 1431, Rev. 1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
3.8.10 A.2 ITS 3.8.10 Required Action A.2.5 states, "Declare associated required residual heat removal 3.8.10, Required None subsystem(s) inoperable and not in operation." This is required with a Completion Time of Action A.2.5 "Immediately." CTS 3.8.2.2 does not specifically state this requirement. This changes the CTS by specifically requiring the RHR subsystem(s) to be declared inoperable with a loss of the associated electrical bus.
This change is acceptable because the RHR subsystem(s) would be declared inoperable under the CTS requirements. This addition does not change the technical requirements of the CTS but acts as a reminder to enter the Action for the RI-IR subsystem(s). This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

This changes tile CTS by requiring Ihat tile loading of' iriadiated FeIel assembles be suspended instead of requirinrig that allI opIerations involving ail increase in the reactor decay hleat load be suspended.
This change is acceptable be ause lie requiriClieeits have not Celanged. The creactor decay heat load is generated by irradiated f'ucl. The only method of iincreasinghe diedecay heat load oF a rcactor in MODE 6 is to load additional irradiated fuel assemblies into the core.

This changes the CTS by providing the option to exit the Applicability of the LCO.
This change is acceptable because tihe rcquirements have not changed. Exiting tie Applicabiility of 'LCO is always an option to exit a Condition. Therefore, stating this option explicitly does not change the require menits of the specification. This change is designated as adin in istrativye because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.

This changes the CTFS by eliminating the requirement to suspend operations involving an increase in reactor decay h":.' load This change is acceptable becaise the requireients have not clanged!. 'e reactor cciy liheat load is generated by irradiated fuel. The only method of increasing tlie decay liead load of a reactor in MODl 6 is to load additional irradiated fuel assemblies into the core.

['llore.
when LCO 3.9.6 is applicable, there is no method available to increase the reactor decay hema load and the requirement can be deleted with no effect on plant operations. This change is designated as

ITS 5.6.5.a includes additional core opcrating limits establishcd and documented in the COLR. These are: Safety Limits, Shutdown Margin, Reactor 'rip Systlem Instrumentationi-OTAT and OPAT Trip Paranictcrs, RCS Prcssure, 'l'enpefrarurc, and Flow D)NB Limits, and Boron Concentration. These limits had prcviously been addressed in olher parts ol the CTS, but arc being moved to the COLR, and because of this arc listed in ITS 5.6.5.a. lhT change also deletes references associating the coNe operating limits listed with other sections in the CTS. This changes CTS by adding core operating limits established and documented in the COt.R because they are being moved there as part of changes to othcr parts of the CTS. Technical aspects of the changes arc addressed by Discussions of Change for the respective individual specifications.

Description ol' Change ITS Requirement CTS Requirement 5.0 A.39 CTS 4.0.5.b refers to Section XI and ASME, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code." ITS 5.5.7 refers to the 5.5.7 4.0.5.b "ASME Code for Operation and Maintenance of' Nuclear Powcr" Plants' and dloes not reference Section XI. This changes the CTS by revising the title of the applicable ASME Codc" lor the fnscrvice Testing Program to match the currently approved version.
This change is acceptable because North Anna has adopted the ASMI-Code fo~r Oper'ation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants, the 1995 Edition and the 1996 Addenda, as required by 10 CtR 50.55a(b)(3). This version of the Code does not use Section Xl for the Inservice Testing Program and is "called the "ASME Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Ptants' instead of the "ASME, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code." This change is designated administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
