a UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555 SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 150 TO FACILITY 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 April 2, 1992, Southern California Edison Company (SCE or the licensee) proposed to amend Facility Operating License No. DPR-13 to a Possession-Only License (POL) for the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1 (SONGS-1 or the facility). The POL would permit the licensee to possess but not operate the facility. Although the SONGS-1 reactor has not been shut down, the licensee has proposed that a POL be approved while the facility is still operating, to become effective upon the permanent cessation of operation and certification to the NRC that all fuel has been offloaded from the reactor and stored in the spent fuel pool.

On May 13, 1992, the NRC published in the Federal Register (57 FR 20518), a Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment to Facility Operating License and Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination and Opportunity for Hearing for the requested amendment. No public comments nor requests for intervention were received.

2.0 BACKGROUND

SONGS-1 received a Provisional Operating License on March 27, 1967 and began commercial operation on January 1, 1968. A Full-Term Operating License (OL) was not issued until September 26, 1991. The OL was to expire on March 2, 2004, 40 years after the issuance of the SONGS-1 Construction Permit. The delay in issuing the OL was due primarily to an NRC staff reevaluation of the plant design to reconfirm its safety in light of operating experience and updated design standards that had developed since the plant was built in the 1960s.

The NRC staff review concluded that numerous modifications were required to SONGS-1 to upgrade the plant to safety standards that were in effect at newer nuclear power stations. SCE made many of the identified upgrades and 9801080365 921023 PDR ADOCK 05000206 P

PDR

-2 committed to complete most of the modifications before restarting the reactor from Refueling Outage 12. Refueling Outage 12 was scheduled at the end of 1992. The NRC formalized the licensee's commitment to complete the SONGS-1 modifications by issuing a Confirmatory Order on January 2, 1990. Based on the formalized commitment to upgrade the plant to contemporary safety standards, the NRC issued the OL in 1991.

While reviewing the SCE rate case, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) concluded that the required upgrades for SONGS-1 were not cost effective and refused to permit the licensee to pass on the cost of the plant modifications to the ratepayers. Lacking a means to recoup the cost of the NRC mandated upgrades, SCE decided to stop power operations at SONGS-1 and requested to amend the license to a POL.

3.0 DISCUSSION AND EVALUATION The licensee has requested that the POL become effective upon certification that all reactor fuel has been removed from the reactor and stored in the spent fuel pool.

The SCE letter of April 2, 1992, requested changes to the license that would permit the licensee to possess and maintain the facility but not operate it. The requested changes to the license are consistent with the expected permanent cessation of operation and reactor defueling. The staff's safety evaluation of the requested license changes is provided in the following paragraphs.

The probability of previously analyzed design basis accidents occurring with the plant in a defueled condition will be significantly reduced for the following reasons: (1) no significant safety hazards could result as the facility will be in a nonoperating condition and the entire core will be in the spent fuel pool; the consequences of credible fuel pool accidents, which are analyzed in Chapters 9 and 15 of the Final Safety Analysis Report, would be unchanged by the POL issuance; and (2) there is reasonable assurance that the common defense and security and the health and safety of public will not be endangered by the defueled, nonoperating status of the reactor. Based on the above, the staff concludes that there are no significant hazards considerations that would result from the issuance of a POL that becomes effective upon the complete defueling of the reactor vessel to the spent fuel pool.

The licensee's letter of April 2, 1992, proposed modifications to the Facility Operating License in order to convert it to a Possession Only License. The staff reviewed these proposals and determined that they are acceptable for the future nonoperating and defueled status of the reactor. In summary, the changes permit the licensee to maintain and possess the facility but not to operate it. The staff's evaluation of these changes is presented below:

1. Modify license paragraph 2.B.(1) to replace the reference to use and operation with possession but not operation.

Evaluation: This change is acceptable as it removes the facility from an operating status.

-3

2. Modify license paragraph 2.B.(2) to remove the authorization to receive and use special nuclear material used as reactor fuel at the facility.

Evaluation: This change is acceptable as it removes the licensee's authority to receive and use special nuclear material as reactor fuel.

This change is consistent with the eventual nonoperating status of the facility.

3. Modify license paragraph 2.B.(3) to remove the reference to reactor startup.

Evaluation: This change is acceptable as it removes an unnecessary use of special nuclear material as sealed neutron sources used only for startup.

In addition, the remainder of this paragraph would properly allow the licensee to receive, possess, and use radioactive devices needed for radiation monitoring and instrument calibration as this use enables monitoring plant and environmental conditions which remain a condition of the POL and the Technical Specifications.

4. Modify license paragraph 2.C.(1) to remove the wording which authorizes the facility to operate at core power levels not in excess of 1346 megawatts thermal.

Evaluation: This change is acceptable as it removes the licensed authority to operate the facility. The new paragraph 2.C.(1) will read:

"The licensee is not authorized to operate the facility as a nuclear reactor."

5. Modify license paragraph 2.F to reflect that this amendment is effective when the licensee provides certification in writing that all reactor fuel has been permanently offloaded from the reactor and stored in the spent fuel pool.

Evaluation: This change is acceptable in that it reflects the conditions of the reactor vessel that provide the basis for the staff's finding of no significant hazards considerations that would result from the issuance of this POL.

4.0 STATE CONSULTATION

In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the California State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment. The State official had no comments.

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

The amendment changes a requirement with respect to the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20 and changes surveillance requirements. The NRC staff has determined that the amendment involves 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

-4 occupational radiation exposure. The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the amendment involves no significant hazards considera tion, and there has been no public comment on such finding (57 FR 20518).

Accordingly, the amendment meets 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 amendment.

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 amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

Southern California Edison Company 23 PARKER STREET IRVINE, CALIFORNIA 92718 HAROLD B. RAY TELEPHONE SENIORVICEPRESIDENT April 2, 1992 7144.84oo U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attention:

Document Control Desk Washington, D.C. 20555 Gentlemen:

Subject:

Docket No. 50-206 Amendment Application No. 203, San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1 Enclosed is Amendment Application No. 203 to the Facility Operating License No. DPR-13 for San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1. Amendment Application No. 203 consists of Proposed Change No. 254.

The proposed change will modify the Facility License to a "Possession Only License" to allow San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station Unit 1 (SONGS 1) to possess special nuclear material but not operate the nuclear reactor at the completion of Fuel Cycle 11.

SCE has reached an agreement with the California Public Utilities Commission staff to permanently close the plant at the end of fuel Cycle 11, including the possibility of a fuel shuffle and extended fuel cycle operation.

The purpose of the Possession Only License is to provide the licensing basis for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to grant Southern California Edison (SCE) regulatory relief from certain operating requirements that are inappropriate for a permanently shutdown and defueled reactor.

If you have any comments or questions regarding this amendment application, please contact me.

Very truly yours, cc:
