UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION SUPPORTING AMENDMENT NO. 133 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-38 AMENDMENT NO.133 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-47 AMENDMENT NO. 130TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-55 DUKE POWER COMPANY OCONEE NUCLEAR STATION, UNITS NOS. 1, 2, AND 3 DOCKETS NOS. 50-269, 50-270 AND 50-287 1.0 Introduction By letter dated April 30, 1984, Duke Power Company (the licensee) proposed changes to the Technical Specifications (TSs) of Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR-38, DPR-47 and DPR-55 for the Oconee Nuclear Station, Units Nos. 1, 2 and 3. These amendments would consist of changes to the Station's common TSs and revise the "Administrative Controls" section of the TSs to reflect current regulations governing licensee event reports as required by the Commission. Other changes requested in the April 30, 1984 submittal are still under staff review and will be addressed by separate Safety Evaluation and license amendment.
2.0 Evaluation The proposed amendment requests modification to the TSs to reflect changes in the reporting requirements as outlined in the Commission's regulations 10 CFR 50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73 and in accordance with the guidance provided in the Commission's Generic Letter (GL) 83-43. The licensee's request for amendment was reviewed against the guidance and model TSs attached to the GL 83-43 that show the appropriate revisions which should be made in the "Administrative Controls" section.
Pages 3.17-1, 3.17-2 and 3.17-3 are included in this revision package to update TS 6.6.2.1 Reportable Event references. Page v-a is being revised to reference the new page numbering. Pages 6.2-1 and 6.5-1 delete the term "Reportable Occurrence" and add the term "Reportable Event."
Page number 6.6-7 has been changed to 6.6-5 because the following material has been deleted from:
Page 6.6-4:
blank page; 6.6-5:
prompt notification with written followup; 6.6-6 and 6.6-6a: thirty-day written reports 8502250795 650109 PDR ADOCK 05000269 P
-2 We have reviewed the proposed changes to the TSs and find that they conform to the changes of the Commission's regulations of 10 CFR 50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73 and have been revised in accordance with the guidance provided in the Commission's GL 83-43. Inasmuch as these amendments reflect changes in nomenclature and in.the scope of licensee reporting obligations, we have determined that the proposed changes are administrative in nature: They revise the TSs only in format to meet the regulations, and therefore do not affect the operation of the plant or the health and safety of the public.
Therefore, we find the proposed changes to the TSs to be acceptable.
3.0 Environmental Consideration The amendments relate to changes in recordkeeping, reporting, or administrative procedures or requirements. Accordingly, the amendments meet the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR*51.22(c)(10).
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.
4.0 Conclusion We have 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, and (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with.the Commission's regulations and the issuance of the amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
