SAFETY LIMIT Written procedures will be developed and followed whenever the reactor water level is lowered below the low-low level set point (5 feet below minimum normal water level). The procedures will define the valves that will be used to lower the vessel water level. All other valves that have the potential of lowering the vessel water level will be identified by valve number in the procedures and these valves will be red tagged to precltJde their operation during the major maintenance with the water level below the low-low level set point.

(A2 LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION 3.2.7 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM ISOLATION VALVES Applicability:
Applies to the operating status of the system of isolation valves on lines connected to the reactor coolant system.
Objective:
To assure the capability of the reactor coolant system isolation valves to minimize reactor coolant loss in the event of a rupture of a line connected to the nuclear steam supply system.
Specification:
- a.
During power operating conditions whenever the reactor head is on, all reactor coolant system isolation valves on lines connected to the reactor coolant system shall be operable except as specified in "b" below.
- b.
In the event any isolation valve becomes inoperable the system shall be considered operable provided at least one valve in each line having an inoperable valve is in the mode corresponding to the isolated condition, except as noted in Specification 3.1.1.e.

Objective:
To assure the capability of the reactor coolant system isolation valves to minimize reactor coolant loss in the event of a rupture of a line connected to the nuclear steam supply system.
Specification:
The reactor coolant system isolation valves surveillance shall be performed as indicated below.
- a.
At least once per operating cycle the operable automatically initiated power-operated isolation valves shall be tested for automatic initiation and closure times.

BASES FOR 3.2.7 AND 4.2.7 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM ISOLATION VALVES The list of reactor coolant isolation valves is contained in the procedure governing controlled lists and have been removed from the Technical Specifications per Generic Letter 91-08. Revisions will be processed in accordanccewith w..
Double isolation valves are provided in lines which connect to the reactor coolant system 4o n
minimize reactor coolan loss in the event of a line rupture. The specified valve requirements assure that isolation is already accomplished with one valve shut or provide redundancy in an open line with two operative valves.
Except where check valves are used as one or both of a set of double isolation valves, the isolation valves shall be capable of automatic initiation. Valve closure times are selected to minimize coolant losses in the event of the specific line rupturing and are procedurally controlled.
Using the longest closure time on the main-steam-line valves following a main-steam-line break (Section XV C.1.0)(1), the core is still covered by the time the valves close. Following a specific system line break, the cleanup and shutdown cooling closing times will upon initiation from a low-low level signal limit coolant loss such that the core is'not uncovered. Feedwater flow would quickly restore coolant levels to prevent clad damage. Closure times are discussed in Section VI-D. 1 (1).
The valve operability test intervals are based on periods not likely to significantly affect operations, and are consistent with testing of other systems. Results obtained during closure testing are not expected to differ appreciably from closure times under accident conditions as in most cases, flow helps to seal the valve.
-75 2
The test interval of once per operating cycle for automatic initiation results in a failure probability of 1.1 x 10 (Fifth Supplement, p. 11 5)(2) that a line will not isolate. Additional surveillances are in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program described in Specificationo (1)

Applies to the allowable leakage rate of the primary containment system.
Obiective:
To assure the capability of the containment in limiting radiation exposure to the public from exceeding values specified in 10 CFR 100 in the event of a loss of-coolant accident accompanied by significant fuel cladding failure and hydrogen generation from a' metal-water reaction.
To assure that periodic surveillances of reactor containment penetrations and isolation valves are performed so that proper maintenance and repairs are made during the service life of the containment, and systems and components penetrating primary containment.
Specification:
Whenever the reactor coolant system temperature is above 215OF and primary containment integrity is required, the primary containment leakage rate shall be limited to:

Applies to the primary containment system leakage rate.
Objective:
To verify that the leakage from the primary containment system is maintained within specified values.
Specification:
- a.
The primary containment leakage rates shall be demonstrated at test schedules and in conformance with the criteria specified in the 10 CFR 50 Appendix J Testing Program Plan as described in Specification&
- b.
The provisions of Specification 4.0.1 are not applicablej and the surveillance interval extensions are in accordance with the 10 CFR 50 Appendix J Testing Program Plan.

MA iscsJ-Ia newws BASES FOR 3.3.4 AND 4.3.4 PRIMARY CONTAINMENT ISOLATION VALVES The list of primary containment isolation valves is contained in the procedure governing controlled lists have been removed from the Technical Specifications per Generic Letter 91-08. Revisions will be processed in accordance with Double isolation valves are provided on lines penetrating the primary containment and open space o t e contament.
osure of one of the valves in each line would be sufficient to maintain the integrity of the pressure suppression system. Except where check valves are used as one or both of a set of double isolation valves, the isolation valves shall be capable of automatic initiation. Automatic initiation is required to minimize the potential leakage paths from the containment in the event of a loss-of-coolant accident. Details of the isolation valves are discussed in Section VI-D.(1I For allowable leakage rate specification, see Section 3.3.3/4.3.3.
For the design basis loss-of-coolant accident fuel rod perforation would not occur until the fuel temperature reached 1700OF which occurs in approximately 100 seconds.(2) The required closing times for all primary containment isolation valves are established to prevent fission product release through lines connecting to the primary containment.
For reactor coolant system temperatures less than 215 0 F, the containment could not become pressurized due to a loss-of-coolant accident.
The 2150 F limit is based on preventing pressurization of the reactor building and rupture of the blowout panels.
The test interval of once per operating cycle for automatic initiation results in a failure probability of 1.1 x 10-7 that a line will not isolate (Fifth Supplement, p. 115).(3) More frequent testing for valve operability results in a more reliable system.
In addition to routine surveillance as outlined in Section VI-D. 1.0(1) each instrument-line flow check valve will be tested for operability. All instruments on a given line will be isolated at each instrument. The line will be purged by isolating the flow check valve, opening the bypass valves, and opening the drain valve to the equipment drain tank. When purging is sufficient to clear the line of non-condensibles and crud the flow-check valve will be cut into service and the bypass valve closed. The main valve will again be opened and the flow check valve allowed to close. The flow-check valve will be reset by closing the drain valve and opening the bypass valve depressurizing part of the system. Instruments will be cut into service after closing the bypass valve. Repressurizing of the individual instruments assures that flow-check valves have reset to the open position.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES REVISED TS: MISCELLANEOUS PAGE CHANGES ADMINISTRATIVE (A)
A. 1 Editorial changes, reformatting, and revised numbering have been adopted to make the Revised TS consistent with the Nine Mile Point Unit 2 Improved Technical Specifications (which are consistent with the BWR Standard Technical Specifications, NUREG-1434, Revision 1).
A.2 Details of the minimum shift crew requirements located in CTS 6.2.2.b are proposed to be relocated to the UFSAR. The reference to CTS 6.2.2.b on TS Page 11 is replaced by stating the CTS 6.2.2.b requirement; i.e., that at least one licensed Operator be in the control room when fuel is in the reactor. Technical changes to minimum shift crew requirements are addressed in the Discussion of Changes for Revised TS 6.2.

"Generic" LA. 1 CTS 6.4.1 discusses the training and replacement training program for the facility staff.
The proposed change would relocate the details of this training program to the UFSAR.
These training provisions are adequately addressed by other proposed TS Section 6.0 provisions and by regulations. Revised TS 6.3, "Facility Staff Qualifications," provides requirements to assure adequate, competent staff in accordance with ANSI/ANS N18.1 1971 and Regulatory Guide 1.8, September 1975. Revised TS 6.2 details facility staff requirements. Revised TS 6.2.2.a and 10 CFR 50.54 state minimum shift crew requirements. Training and requalification of licensed positions is contained in 10 CFR Part 55. Thus, the relocated details are not required to be in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the procedures governing the conduct of operations, including the areas of organization, position titles, responsibilities, shift staffing, personnel qualifications and training programs, are controlled under 10 CFR 50 Appendix B programs.
LA.2 CTS 6.4.2 discusses the training program for the Fire Brigade. The proposed change would relocate the details of this training program to the Fire Hazards Analysis (UFSAR Appendix 10A). The Fire Protection requirements have previously been relocated to the UFSAR in accordance with Generic Letter 88-12; therefore, the fire brigade requirement with respect to training is not needed in the TS. The relocated requirements will assure an adequate training program is maintained in accordance with NMP1 commitments and regulations. As such, these relocated details are not required to be in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the procedures governing the conduct of operations, including the areas of organization, position titles, responsibilities, shift staffing, personnel qualifications and training programs, are controlled under 10 CFR 50 Appendix B programs.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES CTS: 6.5-REVIEW AND AUDIT ADMINISTRATIVE (A)
A.1 The requirements of CTS 6.5.2.3 and CTS 6.5.2.5 regarding Plant Manager reviews and approvals are proposed to be moved to Revised TS 6.1, "Responsibility." Technical changes to these requirements are addressed in the Discussion of Changes for Revised TS 6.1.
TECHNICAL CHANGES - MORE RESTRICTIVE (M)
None TECHNICAL CHANGES - LESS RESTRICTIVE (L, LA)
"Generic" LA.1 CTS 6.5.1 describes the Station Operations Review Committee (SORC) review and audit requirements; CTS 6.5.2 describes technical review and control requirements; and CTS 6.5.3 describes the Safety Review and Audit Board (SRAB) review and audit requirements. The proposed change would relocate these requirements to the QATR, which is contained in the UFSAR as Appendix B. These changes are consistent with the guidance of Administrative Letter (AL) 95-06, "Relocation of Technical Specification Administrative Controls Related to Quality Assurance," dated December 12, 1995, and NUREG-1434, Revision 1. The administrative letter concluded that TS administrative quality assurance-related requirements may be relocated to licensee-controlled quality assurance programs. For NMP1, these requirements would be relocated in their entirety (except as noted below) to the QATR, with only minor wording and formatting changes.
Requirements relating to review and audit activities described in CTS 6.5 are contained in 10 CFR 50.54(p); 10 CFR 50.54(t); 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion XVIII; 10 CFR 73; ANSI/ANS 3.2-1982; ANSI N18.7-1972; and ANSI/ASME NQAl-1983, including 1983 Addenda. Relocation of these TS provisions to the QATR will provide adequate controls over review and audit activities for NMP1. Thus, the provisions are not necessary to be in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the QATR are controlled by the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(a).
Minor Differences Between CTS and the QATR There are several minor differences between the current wording of CTS 6.5 and the existing wording in the QATR, as described below (italics added to highlight differences). These minor differences, which are shown on the marked-up TS pages, will be evaluated in accordance with the NMPC administrative procedures that implement 10 CFR 50.54(a).
- 1. CTS 6.5.1.8 - The TS states that SORC shall maintain written minutes of each meeting, whereas the QATR specifies that "The SORC shall maintain written minutes Page 1 of 2
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES CTS: 6.5-REVIEW AND AUDIT of each meeting that, at a minimum, document the result of all SORC activities performed under the responsibilities and authority provisions of the Technical Specifications and this section."
- 2. CTS 6.5.3.7.h -The TS states that SRAB shall review "Any indication of' an unanticipated deficiency, whereas the QATR specifies that SRAB shall review "All recognized indications of" an unanticipated deficiency. Also, the scope of the TS requirement covers "safety related structures, systems, or components," whereas the QATR specifies "structures, systems, or components that could affect nuclear safety."
- 3. CTS 6.5.3.10.a - The TS requires that minutes of each SRAB meeting shall be prepared, approved and forwarded to the Chief Nuclear Officer within 30 days following each meeting, whereas the QATR requires 14 days for completion of these activities.
- 4. CTS 6.5.3. 1O.b - The TS requires that reports of certain SRAB reviews be prepared, approved and forwarded to the Chief Nuclear Officer within 14 days following completion of the review. The QATR includes one additional SRAB review within the scope of this requirement, that being: "Proposed changes to procedures, equipment or systems which involve an unreviewed safety question as defined in 10 CFR 50.59."
- 5. CTS 6.5.3.10.c - The TS states that SRAB audit reports shall be forwarded to the Chief Nuclear Officer within 90 days following completion of the review, whereas the QATR requires that SRAB audit reports be forwarded to the Chief Nuclear Officer and to the management positions responsible for the areas audited within 30 days following completion of the audit by the auditing organization."

ATTACHMENT 4.12 Current Technical Specifications Markup and Discussion of Changes CTS 6.6 Reportable Occurrence Action
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES CTS: 6.6 - REPORTABLE OCCURRENCE ACTION ADMINISTRATIVE (A)
A.1 CTS 6.6. l.a delineates NRC notification and report submittal requirements for Reportable Events. The proposed change would delete CTS 6.6.1.a. The notification and report submittal requirements of CTS 6.6.1.a are contained in 10 CFR 50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73. There is no need to repeat these requirements in the TS. Since these requirements are contained in the regulations, and since the NMP1 Operating License requires compliance with 10 CFR 50, deletion of this requirement from the TS is considered administrative in nature.
TECHNICAL CHANGES - MORE RESTRICTIVE (M)
None TECHNICAL CHANGES - LESS RESTRICTIVE (L, LA)
"Generic" LA. 1 CTS 6.6.1.b describes SORC responsibilities regarding the review of Reportable Events and submittal of the results of the reviews to the SRAB and the Vice President-Nuclear Generation. The proposed change would relocate the requirements of CTS 6.6.1.b to the QATR. The requirements of CTS 6.6.1.b duplicate the SORC responsibilities given in CTS 6.5.1.6.a and CTS 6.5.1.6.d, which are proposed for relocation to the QATR. These activities are required following the event without a specified completion time. As such, the proposed relocated requirements are not necessary to assure operation of the facility in a safe manner, and are not required to be in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the QATR are controlled by the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(a).

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES CTS: 6.7 - SAFETY LIMIT VIOLATION ADMINISTRATIVE (A)
A. 1 The proposed change would delete the Safety Limit Violation requirements of CTS 6.7 as they relate to NRC notification (CTS 6.7.1.a, and portions of CTS 6.7.1.b, CTS 6.7.1.c, and CTS 6.7.1.d). These requirements are contained in and based upon the requirements located in 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1), 10 CFR 50.72, and 10 CFR 50.73. Since the NMP1 Operating License requires compliance with 10 CFR 50, there is no need to repeat these requirements in the TS. Deletion of these requirements from the TS is considered administrative in nature.

"Generic" LA. 1 The CTS 6.7. 1.b requirement for notification of the Vice President - Nuclear Generation and the SRAB in the event of a Safety Limit Violation; the CTS 6.7.1.c requirement for SORC to review the Safety Limit Violation Report; and the CTS 6.7.1.d requirement to submit the Safety Limit Violation Report to the SRAB and the Vice President - Nuclear Generation are proposed to be relocated to the QATR. Given that the notification occurs following the Safety Limit Violation and that the Safety Limit Violation Report is an after-the-fact report, the proposed relocated requirements are clearly not necessary to assure operation of the unit in a safe manner and are not required to be in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the QATR are controlled by the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(a).

"Generic" LA. 1 CTS 6.10 delineates records retention requirements, including those records that are to be retained for at least five years (CTS 6.10.1) and those records that are to be retained for the duration of the facility operating license (CTS 6.10.2). The proposed change would relocate the requirements of CTS 6.10 to the QATR. These changes are consistent with the guidance of AL 95-06, "Relocation of Technical Specification Administrative Controls Related to Quality Assurance," dated December 12, 1995, and NUREG-1434, Revision 1. The administrative letter concluded that TS administrative quality assurance related requirements may be relocated to licensee-controlled quality assurance programs.
For NMP1, these requirements would be relocated in their entirety to the QATR, with changes only to the format. Records retention requirements related to activities affecting quality are contained in 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion XVII, and other sections of 10 CFR 50 that are applicable to NMP1 (e.g., 10 CFR 50.71, 10 CFR 73, etc.). These records retention requirements provide a record of certain activities important to plant safety, but the records themselves do not assure safe operation of the facility since review of these records is a post-compliance review. Relocation of these TS provisions to the QATR will provide adequate controls over records retention requirements for NMP1. As such, the relocated details are not required to be in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the QATR are controlled by the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(a).

"Generic" LA.1 CTS 6.13 requires performance of inspections and audits of the fire protection and loss prevention program, to be performed annually utilizing either qualified off-site licensee personnel or an outside fire protection firm (CTS 6.13.1), and at intervals no greater than 3 years by an outside qualified fire consultant (CTS 6.13.2). The proposed change would relocate the requirements of CTS 6.10 to the QATR as activities performed under the cognizance of the Safety Review and Audit Board (SRAB). These changes are consistent with the guidance of AL 95-06, "Relocation of Technical Specification Administrative Controls Related to Quality Assurance," dated December 12, 1995, and NUREG-1434, Revision 1. The administrative letter concluded that TS administrative quality assurance related requirements may be relocated to licensee-controlled quality assurance programs.
For NMP1, the requirements of CTS 6.13 would be relocated in their entirety the QATR, with changes only to the format. Requirements relating to review and audit activities of the SRAB are contained in 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion XVIII; ANSI/ANS 3.2 1982; ANSI N18.7-1972; ANSI/ASME NQA1-1983, including 1983 Addenda; and Branch Technical Position ASCSB 9.5-1. Relocation of these TS provisions to the QATR will provide adequate controls over inspection and audit activities relating to the fire protection program for NMP1. As such, the provisions are not necessary to be included in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the QATR are controlled by the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(a).

"Generic" LA.1 CTS 6.15 discusses the iodine monitoring program. The proposed change would relocate the details of this program to the UFSAR. This program is required by the NMP1 commitment to NUREG-0737, Item III.D.3.3 (NUREG-0578, Section 2.1.8.c). This program contains controls to assure the capability to accurately determine the airborne iodine concentration in vital areas under accident conditions, and is designed to minimize radiation exposure to plant personnel post-accident. The training aspect of the program is accomplished as part of the continuing training for personnel in the cognizant organizations, as well as during the training for those individuals responsible for implementing the Radiological Emergency Planning procedures. Provisions for monitoring and performing maintenance of the sampling and analysis equipment are addressed in chemistry and radiation protection procedures. Therefore, the relocated details are not required to be in the TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Changes to the UFSAR are controlled by the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59.

INSERT 6.5.7-A 6.5.7 10 CFR 50 Appendix J Testing Program Plan
- a. A program shall be established to implement the leakage rate testing of the containment as required by 10 CFR 50.54(o) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, Option B.
This program shall be in accordance with the guidelines contained in Regulatory Guide 1.163, entitled "Performance-Based Containment Leak-Test Program," dated September 1995 with the following exceptions:
- 1. Type A tests will be conducted in accordance with ANSI/ANS 56.8-1994 and/or Bechtel Topical Report BN-TOP-1, and
- 2. The first Type A test following approval of this Specification will be a full pressure test conducted approximately 70, rather than 48, months since the last low pressure Type A test.
- b. The peak calculated containment internal pressure (Pac) for the design basis loss of coolant accident is 35 psig.
- c. The maximum allowable primary containment leakage rate (La) at Pac shall be 1.5%
of primary containment air weight per day.
- d. Leakage Rate Surveillance Test acceptance criteria are:
- 1. The as-found Primary Containment Integrated Leak Rate Test (Type A Test) acceptance criteria is less than 1.0 La.
- 2. The as-left Primary Containment Integrated Leak Rate Test (Type A Test) acceptance criteria is less than or equal to 0.75 L,, prior to entering a mode of operation where containment integrity is required.
- 3. The combined Local Leak Rate Test (Type B & C Tests including airlocks) acceptance criteria is less than 0.6 La, calculated on a maximum pathway basis, prior to entering a mode of operation where containment integrity is required.
- 4. The combined Local Leak Rate Test (Type B & C Tests including airlocks) acceptance criteria is less than 0.6 La, calculated on a minimum pathway basis, at all times when containment integrity is required.
- e. The provisions of Specification 4.0.1 do not apply to the test frequencies specified in the 10 CFR 50 Appendix J Testing Program Plan.
JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS FROM NUREG-1434, REVISION 1 REVISED TS 6.5 - PROGRAMS AND MANUALS
- 1. The Administrative Controls portion of the NMP1 Revised Technical Specifications (TS) continues to be identified as Section 6.0, and all subsection numbers begin with "6" rather than "5," to be compatible with the remainder of the NMP1I Current TS (CTS).
- 2. Typographical, grammatical, or editorial correction/revision.
- 3. The brackets have been removed and the proper plant specific information has been provided.
- 4. The surveillance frequency has been changed from "refueling cycle intervals" to "24 months," consistent with the current NMP1 refueling interval. In addition, since normal Surveillance Requirements in the LCO Sections allow a 25% extension of the frequency per CTS 4.0.1, this allowance has also been added for this Surveillance Requirement. In addition, the term "or less" is unnecessary and has been deleted for consistency.
- 5. Revisions to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) specification that are consistent with ISTS 5.5.1 have been reviewed and approved by the NRC in License Amendment No.
176 dated September 11, 2002. Any deviations from the ISTS are addressed as part of that license amendment.
- 6. The word "integrated" has been replaced with the word "system" as related to leak test requirements. This terminology is consistent with the NMP1 response to NUREG-0578 Item 2.1.6.a that was documented in a Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation (NMPC) letter dated December 31, 1979 and accepted by the NRC in the safety evaluation for License Amendment No. 42 (NRC letter dated April 13, 1981).
- 7. The post accident sampling system (PASS) has been eliminated, as approved by the NRC in License Amendment No. 174 dated August 26, 2002; therefore, the program requirements of ISTS 5.5.3, "Post Accident Sampling," have not been added.
- 8. Addition of the Radioactive Effluent Controls Program specification, consistent with ISTS 5.5.4, has been reviewed and approved by the NRC in License Amendment No. 176 dated September 11, 2002. Any deviations from the ISTS are addressed as part of that license amendment.
- 9. The proper plant-specific information/nomenclature has been provided.
- 10. TS requirements for a component cyclic or transient limit program (ISTS 5.5.5) are not part of the NMP1 current licensing basis, and this submittal does not propose to add such requirements. Controls to track the UFSAR Table V-2 cyclic and transient occurrences are contained in plant procedures. Established change control processes will provide sufficient control of changes to these procedures. Therefore, administrative controls relating to the component cyclic or transient limit program are not required to be added to the NMP1 TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety.
Revision A NMP1 1
JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS FROM NUREG-1434, REVISION 1 REVISED TS 6.5 - PROGRAMS AND MANUALS
- 11. This bracketed requirement has been deleted because it is not applicable to NMP1 (NMP1 does not have a prestressed concrete containment).
- 12. Addition of the Inservice Testing Program specification, consistent with ISTS 5.5.7, has been reviewed and approved by the NRC in License Amendment No. 173 dated AA August 5, 2002. Any deviations from the ISTS are addressed as part of that license amendment.
- 13. The Ventilation Filter Testing Program (VFTP) specification of ISTS 5.5.8 has not been adopted as part of this submittal. The requirements for testing of engineered safeguards ventilation filter systems currently reside in TS 3/4.4.4 for the Reactor Building Emergency Ventilation System (RBEVS) and in TS 3/4.4.5 for the Control Room Air Treatment System (CRATS). This submittal is not converting either the Limiting Conditions for Operation or the Surveillance Requirements portions of the NMP1 TS to the ITS format and content; therefore, the ventilation filter testing requirements are retained in their existing TS sections rather than relocating them to the Administrative Controls portion of the TS.
- 14. Addition of the Explosive Gas and Storage Tank Radioactivity Monitoring Program specification, consistent with ISTS 5.5.9, has been reviewed and approved by the NRC in License Amendment No. 176 dated September 11, 2002. Any deviations from the ISTS are addressed as part of that license amendment.
- 15. TS requirements for a diesel fuel oil testing program (ISTS 5.5.10) are not part of the NMIP1 current licensing basis, and this submittal does not propose to add such requirements.
Requirements for testing of both new diesel fuel oil and stored fuel oil are contained in plant procedures. These procedures include sampling and testing requirements and acceptance criteria that are in accordance with applicable ASTM standards. Established change control processes will provide sufficient control of changes to these procedures. Therefore, administrative controls relating to the diesel fuel oil testing program are not required to be added to the NMP1 TS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety.
- 16. The Safety Function Determination Program (SFDP) specification of ISTS 5.5.12 has not been adopted as part of this submittal. An evaluation in accordance with the SFDP is to be performed upon entry into ISTS LCO 3.0.6. The NMP1 TS do not currently contain a specification analogous to ISTS LCO 3.0.6. This submittal is not converting either the Limiting Conditions for Operation or the Surveillance Requirements portions of the TS to the ITS format and content; therefore, a specification analogous to ISTS LCO 3.0.6 and the associated SFDP specification are not proposed to be added to the NMP1 TS.
- 17. The 10 CFR 50 Appendix J Testing Program (CTS 6.16) has been added to be consistent with the current licensing basis and TSTF-52.

JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS FROM NUREG-1434, REVISION 1 REVISED TS 6.6 - REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
- 1. The Administrative Controls portion of the NMP1 Revised Technical Specifications (TS) continues to be identified as Section 6.0, and all subsection numbers begin with "6" rather than "5," to be compatible with the remainder of the NMP1 Current TS (CTS).
- 2. (Deleted)
- 3. Revisions to the Occupational Radiation Exposure Report specification that are consistent with ISTS 5.6.1 have been reviewed and approved by the NRC in License Amendment No.
176 dated September 11, 2002. Any deviations from the ISTS are addressed as part of that license amendment.
- 4. The brackets have been removed and the proper plant-specific information has been provided.
- 5. (Deleted)
- 6. Revisions to the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report specification that are consistent with ISTS 5.6.2 have been reviewed and approved by the NRC in License Amendment No. 176 dated September 11, 2002. Any deviations from the ISTS are addressed as part of that license amendment.
- 7. (Deleted)
- 8. Revisions to the Radioactive Effluent Release Report specification that are consistent with ISTS 5.6.3 have been reviewed and approved by the NRC in License Amendment No. 176 dated September 11, 2002. Any deviations from the ISTS are addressed as part of that license amendment.
- 9. The utilization of a Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) requires the development and NRC approval of detailed methodologies for future revisions to pressure/temperature (P/T) limits. At this time NMPNS does not have the necessary methodologies submitted to the NRC for review and approval; therefore, references to the PTLR are deleted. The NMP1 specific limits and curves are provided in the P/T limits specification (CTS 3/4.2.2).
- 10. TS requirements for EDG Failure Reports (ISTS 5.6.7) are not part of the NMP1 current licensing basis, and this submittal does not propose to add such requirements. NMP1 has implemented a maintenance program for monitoring and maintaining diesel generator performance in accordance with the provisions of the maintenance rule and consistent with the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.160. Therefore, in accordance with the guidance of Generic Letter 94-01 and consistent with TSTF-37, this ISTS section has been deleted.
Revision A NMP 1 1
JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS FROM NUREG-1434, REVISION 1 REVISED TS 6.6 - REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
- 11. The requirements for submitting a Special Report to the NRC in the event that accident monitoring instrumentation is inoperable, including both the specified time period and the report contents, currently reside in TS 3.6.11 (Table 3.6.11-2, Action 3 or 4). This submittal is not converting either the Limiting Conditions for Operation or the Surveillance Requirements portions of the TS to the ITS format and content; therefore, the accident monitoring instrumentation special report requirements are retained in CTS 3.6.11 rather than relocating them to or duplicating them in the Administrative Controls portion of the TS. As an alternative to ISTS 5.6.8, an "Accident Monitoring Instrumentation Report" item is added to the Special Reports specification (CTS 6.9.3), with the proper reference made to Specification 3.6.11.a, and the applicable time period for the report specified (consistent with Specification 3.6.11.a). The term "Accident Monitoring Report" replaces the ISTS term "PAM" to be consistent with the title of CTS 3.6.11.
- 12. This bracketed requirement (ISTS 5.6.9) has been deleted because it is not applicable to NMP1 (NMP1 does not have a prestressed concrete containment).
- 13. The Special Reports specification (CTS 6.9.3) has been added to be consistent with the current licensing basis (including the changes in License Amendment No. 173, issued on August 5, 2002, and License Amendment No. 176, issued on September 11, 2002).
- 14. The term "shutdown margin" is inserted since the "SDM" acronym is not defined elsewhere in TS Section 6.0.
