ADDENDUM TO CITIZENS OVERSIGHT'S ANSWER TO SUBMISSIONS BY NRC STAFF AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON OPPOSING THE PETITION TO INTERVENE AND REQUEST FOR A HEARING BY CITIZENS OVERSIGHT.

The following table "EXHIBIT A" is an extraction from the proposed changes to the San Onofre License Technical Specifications regarding the Reactor Cooling System (RCS). This is a direct extraction from Attachment 1 Vol 7, Chapter 3.4 "Reactor Coolant System (RCS)" -

(ADAMS accession number ML11251A100). There are no arguments or statements by Citizens' Oversight in this addendum.

In this table, the licensee proposes that the Surveillance Frequency specification is to be replaced with the phrase "According to the Surveillance Frequency Control Program." There are approximately 53 instances of specifications being relocated in this single attachment of the Technical Specifications, and there are a total of 15 such attachments.

Citizens' Oversight will refer to this table in the scheduled Oral Arguments proceeding of December 5, 2012.

This concludes the introductory remarks about this addendum.

Inservice Testing Program To minimize the potential for a low temperature overpressure event by limiting the mass input capability, not more than two HPSI pumps are verified OPERABLE with the other pump locked out with power removed and the SIT discharge incapable of injecting into the RCS. The HPSI pump is rendered incapable of injecting into the RCS through removing the power from the pump by racking the breakers out under administrative control. An alternate method of LTOP control may be employed using at least two independent means to prevent a pump start such that a single failure or single action will not result in an injection into the RCS. This may be accomplished through the pump control 3.4.12.1 & switch being placed in pull to lock and at least one valve in the 336-340 3.4.2 discharge flow path being closed 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />
