Dear Sirs:
In reference 1, Arizona Public Service Company (APS) proposed changes to Technical Specification (T S) 3.8.1, "AC Sources - Operating," and TS 3.8.4, "D C Sources - Operating," to allow surveillance testing of the emergency diesel generators (DGs) during MODES in which it is currently prohibited and to incorporate changes based on the Industry/Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Standard Technical Specification change TSTF-283, Revision 3.
One of the changes in this proposed license amendment request is to modify the mode restriction note for the performance of TS Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.8.1.9. Two other requested changes in this proposed amendment request are the deletion of a note for SRs 3.8.1.10 and 3.8.1.14. NRC and PVNGS personnel have discussed issues and concerns associated with these note modification and deletions and have been unable to resolve these issues at this time.
PVNGS has decided to withdraw the proposed changes to SRs 3.8.1.9, 3.8.1.1 0,
~%47 1, and 3.8.1.14. PVNGS will consider pursuing these changes at a future time.
