(DNC) is submitting a request for an amendment to the technical specifications (TS) for Millstone Power Station Unit 3 (MPS3). The proposed amendment would modify TSs by relocating specific surveillance frequencies to a licensee controlled program with the adoption of Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF)-425, Revision 3, "Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - Risk-Informed Technical Specification Task Force (RITSTF) Initiative 5b." Additionally, the change would add a new program, the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (SFCP), to TS Section 6, Administrative Controls. The changes are consistent with NRC-approved Industry/TSTF Standard Technical Specifications (STS) change TSTF-425, Revision 3, (ADAMS Accession No. ML090850642).

Attachment 1 provides a description and assessment of the proposed change.

Attachment 2 includes DNC documentation with regard to the technical adequacy of the Probabilistic Risk Assessment. Attachment 4 provides a cross-reference between the NUREG-1431 surveillances included in TSTF-425 versus the MPS3 surveillances included in this amendment request. Attachments 3 and 6 provide the MPS3 marked-up TS pages and TS Bases pages, respectively. The marked-up TS Bases pages are provided for information only. The changes to the affected TS Bases pages will be incorporated in accordance with the TS Bases Control Program upon approval of this amendment request.

As detailed in Attachment 5, the proposed amendment does not involve a Significant Hazards Consideration pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 50.92.

The Facility Safety Review Committee has reviewed and concurred with the determinations herein.

Issuance of this amendment is requested no later than June 28, 2012, with the amendment to be implemented within 60 days.
