1.0 INTRODUCTION

By letter to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) dated January 12, 2006 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML060130404), Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon, the licensee) requested changes to the technical specification (TS) surveillance requirements (SRs) for the Byron Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (Byron), and the Braidwood Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (Braidwood). The proposed changes would revise TS 3.6.6, Containment Spray and Cooling Systems, SR 3.6.6.3 from $ 2660 gallons per minute (gpm) to each train, to $ 2660 gpm to each cooler. The change corrects an error introduced into the TSs during the conversion to improved standard technical specifications (ITS) format.

The containment cooling system (CCS) consists of two redundant trains, each of sufficient capacity to supply 100 percent of the design cooling requirement. Each train consists of two 50 percent capacity reactor containment fan coolers (RCFCs). The RCFCs for each train are supplied with cooling water from separate trains of the essential service water system (SX).

Byron and Braidwood converted to ITS in December 1998 (ADAMS Accession No. ML020870040). The SR in the previous TSs that was equivalent to SR 3.6.6.3 required that each train of the containment cooling system be demonstrated OPERABLE by verifying an SX flow rate of $ 2660 gpm to each RCFC. During the ITS conversion, standard verbiage for SR 3.6.6.3 was adopted; however, the specific plant design of two RCFCs per containment cooling train was overlooked. Currently, SR 3.6.6.3 requires that each CCS train be supplied by the SX at a flow rate of $ 2660 gpm. The licensee identified this inconsistency and has implemented appropriate administrative controls. The licensee considers SR 3.6.6.3 nonconservative. The licensee is requesting that the SR be revised to require the cooling water

flow rate to each RCFC be $ 2660 gpm to be consistent with the Byron and Braidwood plant design basis.

2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION

Section 182a of the Atomic Energy Act requires applicants for nuclear power plant operating licenses to include TSs as part of the license which are derived from the plant safety analyses.

Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 50.36(b) requires that [e]ach license authorizing operation of a production or utilization facility of the type described in Section 50.21 or Section 50.22 will include technical specifications. The technical specifications will be derived from the analyses and evaluation included in the safety analysis report, and amendments thereto, submitted pursuant to Section 50.34. The Commission may include such additional technical specifications as the Commission finds appropriate. Section 50.36(c)(3)

Surveillance Requirements, states that [s]urveillance requirements are requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met. The NRC staff reviewed the proposed changes for compliance with 10 CFR 50.36, ?Technical Specifications.

In addition, licensees may revise their TSs to adopt the ITS format and content provided that a plant-specific review supports a finding of continued adequate safety because the changes are:

(1) editorial, administrative, or provides clarification (i.e., no requirements are materially altered); (2) more restrictive than the licensees current requirement; or (3) less restrictive than the licensees current requirements, but nonetheless still affords adequate assurance of safety when judged against current regulatory standards.

3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION

The NRC staff reviewed the licensees technical analyses in support of its proposed license amendment, which is described in Section 4.0 of the licensees January 12, 2006, submittal.

The licensees changes to SR 3.6.6 clarify that a flow rate of $ 2660 gpm to each cooler is needed to satisfy the SR. The NRC staff reviewed the proposed changes and found that they continue to provide adequate safety because they are consistent with the design of Byron and Braidwood and correct the error introduced when the licensee converted the TSs to the ITS format. The changes also comply with 10 CFR 50.36 and are consistent with the ITS. On this basis, the NRC staff concludes that the proposed changes to the TS for Byron and Braidwood, are acceptable.

4.0 STATE CONSULTATION

In accordance with the Commissions regulations, the Illinois State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendments. The State official had no comments.

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

The amendments change the requirements with respect to installation or use of the facilities components located within the restricted areas as defined in 10 CFR Part 20 and changes surveillance requirements. The NRC staff has determined that the amendments involve no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the amendments involve no significant hazards consideration, and there has been no public comment on such finding (71 FR 23954; April 25, 2006). Accordingly, the amendments meet the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b) no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendments.

6.0 CONCLUSION

The Commission has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that: (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commissions regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
