0 NCUNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO.126TO PROVISIONAL OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-13 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY SAN DIEGO GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY SAN ONOFRE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, UNIT NO. 1 DOCKET NO. 50-206
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated February 14, 1989, Southern California Edison Company (SCE or the licensee) requested a change to the Technical Specifications appended to Provisional Operating License No. DPR-13 for operation of Sari Onufre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS), Unit No. 1, located in San Diego County, California.
2.0 EVALUATION Individuals who are designated to be responsible for directing the licensed activities of licensed operators are required by 10 CFR 50.54(1) to maintain a senior reactor operator (SRO) license. At SONGS Unit 1, the Assistant Plant Superintendent is designated to be responsible for directing the licensed activities of licensed operators. Technical Specification 6.2.2g specifies the SRO license requirements for the unit staff. However, it does not address the Assistant Plant Superintendent position. The propused change would modify Section 6.2.2g to explicitly require the Assistant Plant Superintendent to hold an SRO license. The American National Standard ANSI/ANS-3.1-1987 provides guidance on the qualifications of the unit staff. The proposed Technical Specification change conforms to that guidance. Because this change meets the intent of 10 CFR 50.54(1) and ensures that the requirement is met, it is acceptable.
