SUBJECT:

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant Unit Nos. 1 & 2; Docket Nos. 50-317 & 50-318 License Amendment Request: Revision to the Administrative Controls Section of the Technical Specifications Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Inc. (CCNPP) hereby requests an amendment to Renewed Operating License Nos. DPR-53 and DPR-69 to incorporate the changes described below into the Technical Specifications for Calvert Cliffs Unit Nos. 1 and 2.

DESCRIPTION The proposed amendment revises the Unit Nos. 1 and 2 Technical Specification Administrative Controls Section to incorporate seven changes previously approved for the Improved Standard Technical Specifications (ISTS). These changes are reflected in Revision 2 of NUREG-1432 (Reference a). In addition, a change is also being requested to correct an inconsistency introduced in a prior Technical Specification amendment. Each proposed change is described below. Marked up Technical Specification pages are contained in Attachment (1).

Change 1 - Administrative Controls Program 5.5.2 Test Interval and Exception Technical Specification 5.5.2, Primary Coolant Sources Outside Containment, requires that the program addressing this issue contain requirements for an integrated leak test for each system at refueling cycle intervals or less. In accordance with Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF)-299 (Reference b),

CCNPP is proposing to change the timing of those tests to "24 months or less." Technical Specification 5.5.2 is essentially a surveillance requirement. Since normal refueling cycle intervals are 24 months, presenting the requirement in this manner achieves consistency with other similar requirements in the Technical Specifications. As a result of explicitly stating the interval for the test, it will not be possible to account for shutdowns or power reductions that may occur during the cycle and cause the cycle length to be increased. Also to achieve consistency with other surveillance intervals, the provisions of Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.0.2 will be applicable for this surveillance. That statement is also added to Technical Specification 5.5.2 in conformance with TSTF-299. The applicability of SR 3.0.2 must be explicitly stated in Technical Specification 5.5.2, since SR 3.0.2 only applies to Technical Specification Sections 3.1 through 3.9.

Document Control Desk June 11, 2002 Page 2 Change 2 - Change to Section 5.0 Administrative Controls There are five changes approved in TSTF-258 (Reference c). This request proposes to adopt parts of two of those changes.

Technical Specification Change Disposition Technical Specification 5.2.2, Working hour Previously adopted limits Technical Specification 5.3.1, Unit staff Not necessary, CCNPP staff qualifications qualifications were part of current licensing basis at the time of conversion ISTS 5.7, High radiation area Does not exist in CCNPP Technical Specifications, changes do not apply Technical Specification 5.5.4, Radioactive In this submittal, see below effluent controls program Technical Specification 5.5.6, Remove In this submittal, see below pressurizer and safety relief valve report The change requested makes some minor editorial clarifications in Technical Specification 5.5.4, Radioactive Effluent Controls Program, and allows the provisions of SR 3.0.2 and SR 3.0.3 to be applied to Technical Specification 5.5.4.e. The first part of this change is to add the provisions of SR 3.0.2 and SR 3.0.3 to Technical Specification 5.5.4. This provision permits a 25% extension in the frequency of the interval specified in Technical Specification 5.5.4.e (31 days). Allowing a 25% extension in the frequency of performing the monthly cumulative dose and projected dose calculation for the current quarter will have no affect on the outcome of the calculation. In addition, it also requires that, if the surveillance is missed, it will be performed in accordance with the requirements of SR 3.0.3. Again, this timing has no effect on the dose calculation. The last part of this change is to make minor editorial clarifications in Technical Specifications 5.5.4.i and 5.5.4.1. These changes clarify that the effluents are being released from the site and go beyond the site boundary.

The second proposed change is to eliminate the requirement for reporting pressurizer safety and relief valve failures. This requirement is contained in Technical Specification 5.6.6. The reporting of pressurizer safety and relief valve failures is based on the guidance in a letter from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), dated May 8, 1980, to all operating reactors. It established a requirement to provide an annual report of all pressurizer safety and relief valve challenges and failures. This requirement was added to CCNPP Technical Specifications on March 9, 1982. NUREG-0694, "TMI-Related Requirements for New Operating Licenses," June 1980, also provides guidance for the reporting of challenges and failures of the pressurizer safety and relief valves. The guidance of NUREG-0694 states, "Assure that any failure of a PORV or safety valve to close will be reported to the NRC promptly. All challenges to the PORVs or safety relief valves should be documented in the annual report." This information was originally included in the monthly operating report requirement of the ISTS. No separate Technical Specification requirement was included in the ISTS. When Calvert Cliffs converted to the ISTS, we dropped the recommended wording for a monthly report of pressurizer safety and relief valves challenges and failures. We maintained our previously approved annual reporting requirement, moving it to Technical Specification 5.6.6. When the reduction in monthly operating report data was established (Generic Letter 97-02), no mention was made of reporting the information about the pressurizer safety and relief valve challenges and failures. The industry TSTF committee contacted the

Document Control Desk June 11, 2002 Page 3 NRC and they indicated that this information was not required for the performance indicator program and, therefore, would not need to be reported. Additionally, the performance indicator program has been eliminated as discussed in Regulatory Issue Summary 99-04. Therefore, reporting of this information is not needed, as it is not used within the NRC. Based on this information, it is acceptable to delete the requirement to provide documentation of all challenges and failures of the pressurizer safety and relief valves in conformance with TSTF-258. The marked up pages show that this Technical Specification was removed, however, the Technical Specification number is retained and marked "not used." This prevents the need for renumbering the subsequent Technical Specifications with all of the document changes that it entails.

Change 3 - Determination of Cumulative and Projected Dose Contributions in RECP Technical Specification 5.5.4 provides guidance for the Radioactive Effluent Control Program. As part of that program, licensees are required to determine both cumulative and projected dose contributions from radioactive effluents. These requirements were derived from previous Technical Specifications and combined into one requirement in the ISTS. However, when the two requirements were combined, the wording resulted in some potential confusion concerning the timing of the determinations. The current wording is, "Determination of cumulative and projected dose contributions from radioactive effluents for the current calendar quarter and current calendar year, in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM, at least every 31 days." This proposed change would revise the wording of Technical Specification 5.5.4.e to describe the actual intent of the required dose projections consistent with TSTF-308 (Reference d). The existing wording combines the requirement to determine the cumulative and projected dose into one requirement. This results from guidance provided in Generic Letter 89-01, which appears to have combined two previously unrelated dose projection requirements.

Technical Specification 5.5.4.e could be interpreted to require determining projected dose contributions for the current calendar quarter and current calendar year every 31 days. This change will clarify the requirement to determine the cumulative dose for the current calendar quarter and the current calendar year, while separating out the requirement to determine the projected dose.

Change 4 - Remove Applicable Supports from Inservice Testing Program The Inservice Testing Program provides controls for testing Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components. The requirements are contained in Technical Specification 5.5.8. This Technical Specification currently says, "This program provides controls for inservice testing of ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components including applicable supports." This change proposes to remove the reference to "applicable supports" from the description of the Inservice Testing Program consistent with TSTF-279 (Reference e). Pipe supports are addressed under the Inservice Inspection Program, not the Inservice Testing Program, therefore, the pipe supports should not be included in the Inservice Testing Program section. The Inservice Inspection Program is not described in the Technical Specifications. Thus, the reference to "applicable supports" was deleted from the ISTS.

Change 5 - Cancellation of NRC Environmental Monitoring Program with the States In Technical Specification 5.6.2 there is a requirement to provide data associated with the thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) that CCNPP has collocated with NRC TLDs. These TLDs are part of the NRC TLD Program, which provided separate radiological monitoring around certain nuclear sites.

In Press Release 98-08, dated January 13, 1998, the NRC announced that it had ended its TLD Program, which was part of its contract with 34 states to perform monitoring around certain facilities. Technical Specification 5.6.2 states, "The report shall identify the thermoluminescent dosimeter results that represent collocated dosimeters in relation to the NRC thermoluminescent dosimeter program, and the exposure period associated with each result." This TLD program is the same one that the NRC cancelled

Document Control Desk June 11, 2002 Page 4 at the end of 1997 and reported in Press Release 98-08. Therefore, there is no longer a need to report these results or reference this program. This proposed change is consistent with TSTF-348 (Reference f).

Change 6 - Revise Topical Report References in ITS 5.6.5 COLR The requirement in Technical Specification 5.6.5, Core Operating Limits Report, to identify the Topical Reports by number, title, date, or NRC Staff approval document is proposed to be revised to allow the Topical Reports to be identified by title and number, only. This request conforms to TSTF-363 (Reference g). However, the complete citation for each Topical Report is contained in the Core Operating Limits Report (COLR), including the report title, number, revision, date, and any supplements. This method of referencing Topical Reports allows CCNPP to use current topical reports to support the limits in the COLR without having to submit a license amendment every time the topical report is revised. The COLR would provide specific information identifying the particular approved Topical Reports used to determine the core limits for the particular cycle. This would eliminate unnecessary expenditure of NRC and CCNPP resources and would ease the burden of Technical Specification submittals needed to license reload fuel.

Change 7 - Renumber Pages The pages of Section 5.0 will be renumbered to reflect the appropriate sections of 5.0 (i.e., 5.1-1, 5.2-1, etc.) in accordance with Reference (a). These renumbered pages are not provided as part of the mark-up.

Change 8 - Correct 10 CFR Part 20 Reference Technical Specifications 5.5.1.c.l.ii and 5.5.4.c address methods of radioactive effluent control, referencing 10 CFR 20.1302 as the standard of compliance. This reference reflects the new version of 10 CFR Part 20. When the new version was issued in 1991, we did not convert our radioactive effluent controls program to conform to the latest version. We maintained compliance to the old, more conservative version of 10 CFR Part 20. Note the reference to Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 in Technical Specification 5.5.4.b. This is a reference to the old 10 CFR Part 20 table for concentrations of radionuclides in offsite releases.

We inappropriately requested a change from 10 CFR 20.106 to 10 CFR 20.1302 in Reference (h). The NRC granted this administrative change in Reference (i). We wish to reverse this change. Note that we currently comply with both 10 CFR 20.106 and 10 CFR 20.1302. We would like to provide consistency within the radioactive effluent controls program as reflected in the Technical Specifications.

DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS The proposed amendment revises the Unit Nos. 1 and 2 Technical Specification Administrative Controls Section to incorporate seven changes previously approved for the Improved Standard Technical Specifications (ISTS). These changes are reflected in NUREG-1432, Revision 2. These changes generally clarify existing requirements, however, three current requirements are removed from Section 5.0. They are the pressurizer safety and relief valve challenges and failures report, removal of the pipe supports from the Inservice Testing Program, and recognition of the cancellation of Nuclear Regulatory Commission's environmental monitoring program with the state. In addition, a change to the references to 10 CFR Part 20 is requested to correct an inconsistency in the version of 10 CFR Part 20 referenced.

Document Control Desk June 11, 2002 Page 5 These proposed changes have been evaluated against the standards in 10 CFR 50.92 and have been determined to not involve a significant hazards consideration, in that operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendments:

1. Would not involve a significant increase in the probabilityor consequences of an accidentpreviously evaluated.

The majority of changes proposed are editorial in nature, that is, they do not change the fundamental requirement of the Technical Specification. They generally clarify the existing requirement. The remaining changes are changes to the Technical Specification requirements. The deletion of the pressurizer safety and relief valve challenges and failures report does not impact the operation of the pressurizer safety and relief valves and still permits reporting of significant failures under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.72 and 50.73. Removal of pipe supports from the Inservice Testing Program description corrects the description of the program. It does not change the manner or timing of any evaluations of pipe supports or snubbers. Removal of the discussion of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission environmental monitoring program with the state reflects the cancellation of that program with the state. It does not alter any other environmental monitoring requirements.

As described above, these proposed changes are generally editorial in nature or have no impact on plant operation. None of the proposed changes impact the operation of any equipment needed for the mitigation of an accident or any known accident initiators.

Therefore, the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated have not significantly increased.

2. Would not create the possibility of a new or different type of accidentfrom any accidentpreviously evaluated.

As noted above, these changes are generally editorial in nature. That is, they do not change the fundamental requirement of the Technical Specification. They generally clarify the existing requirement. The remaining changes do not impact plant operation. None of the proposed changes would result in new or different plant operation or the addition of new equipment.

Therefore, the possibility of a new or different type of accident from any previously evaluated is not created.

3. Would not involve a significantreduction in a margin of safety.

Since the majority of the proposed changes are editorial in nature, they do not change the fundamental Technical Specification requirement. Therefore, they do not impact the margin of safety represented by these Technical Specifications. The remaining changes do not impact plant operation and generally align these Technical Specification requirements with the criteria given in 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii). The deletion of the pressurizer safety and relief valve challenges and failures report does not impact the operation of the pressurizer safety and relief valves and still permits reporting of significant failures under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.72 and 50.73. Removal of pipe supports from the Inservice Testing Program description corrects the description of the program. It does not change the manner or timing of any evaluations of pipe supports or snubbers. Removal of the discussion of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission environmental monitoring program with the state reflects the cancellation of that program with the state. It does not alter any other environmental monitoring requirements. These changes do not impact the margin of safety.

Document Control Desk June 11, 2002 Page 6 Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT We have determined that operation with the proposed amendments will not result in a significant change in the types or significant increases in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, and no significant increases in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Therefore, the proposed amendments are eligible for categorical exclusion as set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact assessment is needed in connection with the approval of the proposed amendments.

SAFETY COMMITTEE REVIEW The Plant Operations and Safety Review Committee and the Offsite Safety Review Committee have reviewed these proposed amendments and concur that operation with the proposed amendments will not result in an undue risk to the health and safety of the public.

SCHEDULE One of these proposed changes will result in a reduction of reporting requirements and the resultant savings to both CCNPP and the NRC from a reduction in paperwork. Another proposed change could result in fewer license amendment requests to change the list of approved topical reports. Therefore, we request that you review and approve this request by February 28, 2003.

PRECEDENT Most of these changes have been approved by the NRC for incorporation in the ISTS and are incorporated in NUREG-1432, Revision 2. Plants converting to the ISTS under Revision 2 of the NUREG could adopt these changes. In addition, numerous plants have submitted and/or received approval for these changes as individual items.
