Amendment No. 168
SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NOS. 181 AND 168 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NOS. NPF-76 AND NPF-80 STP NUCLEAR OPERATING COMPANY, ET AL.
SOUTH TEXAS PROJECT, UNITS 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-498 AND 50-499
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By application dated February 28, 2007 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML070650314), as supplemented by letter dated May 22, 2007 (ADAMS Accession No. ML071500104), STP Nuclear Operating Company (the licensee),
requested changes to the Technical Specifications (TSs) for South Texas Project (STP), Units 1 and 2. The proposed revision would clarify TS 3.7.1.2 Action b, AAuxiliary Feedwater System@
allowance for entry into MODE 3 with an inoperable turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater (AFW) pump. The supplement dated May 22, 2007, provided additional information that clarified the application, did not expand the scope of the application as originally noticed, and did not change the staff's original proposed no significant hazards consideration determination as published in the Federal Register on May 22, 2007 (72 FR 28723).
The proposed amendment is an administrative clarification to revise the language of TS 3.7.1.2 Action b to conform with the Licensing Basis established by Amendment Nos. 87 and 74, for Units 1 and 2, respectively, dated May 27, 1997. The proposed revision will change the wording of TS 3.7.1.2 Action b from AMODE 3 may be entered with an inoperable turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump for the purposes of performing Surveillance Requirement 4.7.1.2.1.a.2" to AMODE 3 may be entered with an inoperable turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump for the purposes of performing post-maintenance testing and Surveillance Requirement 4.7.1.2.1.a.2."
This revision is not intended to change plant actions related to post-maintenance and surveillance testing necessary to declare the turbine-driven AFW pump operable.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
In Part 50, Section 36 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), ATechnical specifications,@ the Commission established its regulatory requirements related to the content of TS. Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36, TSs are required to include items in the following five specific categories related to station operations: (1) safety limits, limiting safety system settings, and limiting control settings; (2) limiting conditions for operation; (3) surveillance requirements; (4) design features; and (5) administrative controls. The rule does not specify the particular requirements to be included in a plant=s TSs. However, the TSs are considered part of the operating license and should conform to the plant-specific Licensing Basis.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
The current TS 3.7.1.2 Action b required rewording in Amendments 170 and 158, dated January 10, 2005, when TS Task Force (TSTF)-359, AIncreased Flexibility in Mode Restraints@,
via the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process, was implemented which included the revision of TS 3.0.4. In TS 3.7.1.2 Action b, the wording AThe provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable for entry into Mode 3 for the turbine-driven pump,@ was replaced with AMODE 3 may be entered with an inoperable turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump for the purposes of performing Surveillance Requirement 4.7.2.1.a.2.@ The revised wording was not consistent with the Licensing Basis established in Amendment Nos. 87 and 74, for Units 1 and 2, respectively, dated May 27, 1997, which states:
AThe proposed changes would allow the transition from Mode 4 to Mode 3 with the turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater (AFW) pump inoperable and allow a 72-hour period after the entry into Mode 3 to complete all necessary operability testing. The proposed changes are intended to allow the plant to achieve the secondary temperatures and pressures required to perform the post-maintenance and surveillance testing necessary to declare the turbine-driven AFW pump operable.@
To allow for uniformity with the Licensing Basis, the proposed revision will change the wording of TS 3.7.1.2 Action b from AMODE 3 may be entered with an inoperable turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump for the purposes of performing Surveillance Requirement 4.7.1.2.1.a.2" to AMODE 3 may be entered with an inoperable turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump for the purposes of performing post-maintenance testing and Surveillance Requirement 4.7.1.2.1.a.2."
The proposed amendment is an administrative clarification of TS 3.7.1.2 Action b in which this revision does not change plant actions related to post-maintenance and surveillance testing of the turbine-driven AFW pump.
Since the proposed revision does not change plant actions, compliance with the General Design Criteria stated in Standard Review Plan 10.4.9, Auxiliary Feedwater System, is not affected and the margin of safety remains unchanged. In addition, the AFW system at each of the STP units consists of three motor-driven AFW pumps and one steam turbine-driven AFW pump configured into four independent, 100 percent capacity, trains as opposed to three as used in most other Westinghouse designed plants; thus, the STP design does not rely upon the turbine-driven AFW pump for its station blackout (SBO) analysis. Therefore, the requirements of 10 CFR 50.63 as they relate to the AFW's design to withstand or cope with a SBO is unaffected.
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the State of Texas official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment. The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The amendments change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20. 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 published on May 22, 2007 (72 FR 28723). 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 Commission's 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.
