50-270 AND TO LICENSE AMENDMENT NO. 176 FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-55 DOCKET NO. 50-287 Replace the following page of the Appendix "A" Technical Specifications with the enclosed page.

4.8 MAIN STEAM STOP VALVES Applicability Applies to the main steam stop valves.

Objective To verify the ability of the main steam stop valves to close upon signal.

Specification 4.8 Using Channels A and B, the operation of each of the main steam stop valves shall be tested during each refueling outage to demon strate a closure time of one second or less in Channel A and a clo sure time of 15 seconds or less for Channel B.

I Bases The main steam stop valves limit the Reactor Coolant System cooldown rate and resultant reactivity insertion following a main steam line break accident.

Their ability to promptly close upon redundant signals will be verified during each refueling outage.

Channel A solenoid valves are designed to close all four turbine stop valves in 240 milliseconds.

The backup Channel B solenoid valves are designed to close the turbine stop valves in approximately 12 seconds.

Using the maximum 15 second stop valve closing time, the fouled steam generator inventories and the minimum tripped rod worth with the maximum stuck rod worth, an analysis similar to that presented in FSAR Section 15.13, (but considering a blowdown of both steam generators) shows that the reactor will remain sub critical after reactor trip following a double-ended steam line break.
