Mr. Gregory M. Rueger, ior Vice President and General Manager Pacific Gas and Electric Company Nuclear Power Generation N9B P.O. Box 770000 San Francisco, California 94177 October 7, 199
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATIONON THE PROPOSED CONVERSION TO THE IMPROVED STANDARD TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR DIABLOCANYON POWER PLANT, UNIT NOS.
1 AND 2 (TAC NOS. M98984 AND M98985)
Dear Mr. Rueger:
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff is reviewing Pacific Gas & Electric Company's proposed license amendment to convert the current technical specifications for the Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Unit Nos.
1 and 2, to the Improved Standard Technical Specifications.
Pacific Gas 8 Electric Company provided their proposed license amendment request by letter dated June 2, 1997.
The staff has reviewed selected portions of the application.
Based on its review, the staff has determined that additional information is needed in Section 3.8, Subsections 3.8.1, 3.8.2, 3.8.3, 3.8.9, and 3.8.10, Electrical Power Systems, as discussed in the enclosure.
The request for additional information was electronically transmitted to your staff on October 5, 1998, to expedite the review process.
Question 3.8.03-03 has been modified by deleting the first sentence because it was not needed.
To assist the staff in maintaining its review schedule, please respond to the questions within 30 days of the date of this letter. Ifyou have any questions regarding the RAI, please contact me at (301) 415-1313.
Ifall four utilities would like to have a common discussion, a single meeting, or phone call, it can be coordinated by contacting the NRR Lead Project Manager, Jack Donohew at (301) 415-1307.
Sincerely, Original Signed By Steven D. Bloom, Project Manager Project Directorate IV-2 Division of Reactor Projects III/IV Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket Nos. 50-275 and 50-323

This requirement has not been adopted as Required Action A.2 for corresponding ITS 3.8.1.
The Note for Required Actions D.1 and D.2 for STS 3.8.1 states, "Enter applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.8.9, Distribution Systems - Operating, when Condition D is entered with no AC power source to any train." This Note has not been adopted as the Note for Required Actions D.1 and D.2 for corresponding ITS 3.8.1
~
JFD 3.8-32 states that a loss of one offsite power circuit willnot result in offsite power to the bus being unavailable.
Comment:
Confirm that there are no potential failures that could occur that would result in offsite power to a bus being unavailable, or conform to the STS.

3.8.1-02 DC ITS 3.8.1 Required Action B.2 ITS 3.8.1 Note for Required Action B.2 Bases for ITS 3.8.1 Required Action B.2, STS Bases markup page B 3.8-Bases for STS 3.8.1 Required Actions A.2 and B.2 Reviewer's Notes This comment is applicable only ifRequired Action A.2 for STS 3.8.1 has been adopted by corresponding ITS 3.8.1.
Required Action B.2 for ITS 3.8.1 specifies to declare required feature(s) supported by the inoperable DG inoperable when its required redundant feature(s) is inoperable.
The Bases for STS 3.8.1 Required Actions A.2 and B.2 contain the same Reviewer's Note. The Reviewer's Notes address when the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump (TDAFWP) is required to be considered a redundant required feature.
The Note
Diablo Canyon improved TS Review Comments ITS Section 3.8, Electrical Power Systems 3.8.1, 3.8.2, 3.8.3, 3.8.9, 3.8.10 associated with Required Action B.2 states, "In Modes 1, 2, and 3, the TDAFWP is considered a required redundant feature." Required Action A,2 does not have this Note.
Comment:
Not having a Note associated with Required Action A.2 for ITS 3.8.1 that addresses the TDAFWP appears to be inconsistent with Required Action B.2, and not in conformance with the STS Reviewer's Notes.
Revise the submittal to provide the explanation/justification for this apparent inconsistency and nonconformance, or add a Note addressing the TDAWFP to Required Action A.2 Licensee Response:

3.8.1-06 DC DOC 01-1 2-A CTS SR 4.8.1.1.2 DOC 01-12-A references RG 1.9, Rev. 3. Does DCPP endorse Rev. 3?
Comment:
Since RG 1.9, Rev. 3 incorporates RG 1.108 and supersedes all previous RG 1.9 revisions, does the proposed ITS delete all references to RG 1.108 and to previous revisions to RG 1.9? Has the DCPP FSAR been updated to reflect Rev. 3?
Licensee Response:
3.8.1-07 DC DOC 01-18-LS11 CTS SR 4.8.1.1.2.a.3 For DOC 01-18-LS11, the justification for the change in DG loading requirements is not adequate.

3.8.1-09 DC CTS 4.8.1.1.1.b.2, The CTS SR indicates that the load sequence timer is used to sequence loads onto the offsite power circuits.
Is this correct?
Comment:
Ifso, why is the load sequencer not included as part of the LCO?
Licensee Response:
3.8.1-10 DC DOC 01-27-LS9 CTS 4.8.1.1.2.b.4 DOC 01-27-LS9 references RG 1.108.
Mowever, other DOCs reference RG 1.9, Rev. 3 which incorporates RG 1.108.
Comment:
The DOCs can not reference both documents.
The DOCs must be changed to reference only RG 1.9, Rev. 3, or some prior revision to RG 1.9 and RG 1.108.

3.8.1-11 DC DOC 01-38-LG DOC 01-39-LG CTS 4.8.1.1.3.e DOC 01-38-OG and DOC 01-39-LG state that the SR would be moved to a licensee-control document.
Comment: This SR should be designated as a relocated item and the DOCs should state we the SR willgo and what controls will be associated with it.

When modified start procedures are not used, the time, voltage, and frequency tolerances of SR 3.8.1.7 must be met.]" This has been adopted as Note 3 for corresponding ITS SR 3.8.1.2. The Bases for ITS SR 3.8.1.2 states, "Currently, the DGs are not able to gradually accelerate, and Note 3 does not apply. However, ifthe DG's governor is replaced with a governor with the ability to allow gradual acceleration, Note 3 may be applied."
This is a proposed difference relative to the Bases for STS SR 3.8.1.2.
Comment: The intention of the brackets around Note 3 of STS SR 3.8.1.2 is that the Note is to be utilized by plants for which it is applicable.
The Bases for ITS SR 3.8.1.2 states that Note 3 does not apply. Revise the submittal to delete Note 3 from ITS SR 3.8.1.2, and delete the reference to the Note from the Bases for ITS SR 3.8.1.2.

Comment:
DOC 03-06-LS does not explain why the proposed change is acceptable.
Revise the submittal to confirm that the "minimum electrical buses" required in the CTS LCO 3.8.10 and the "necessary portion of the AC, DC, and AC vital bus..." in the ITS LCO 3.8.10 is the same.

This has been adopted as Condition A for corresponding ITS 3.8.10, and is a proposed change relative to the Action for corresponding CTS 3/4.8.2.2 which states, "With any of the above required electrical buses inoperable..."
Required Action A.2.4 for STS 3.8.10 states, "Initiate actions to restore required AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems to Operable status." This requirement has been adopted as Required Action A.2.4 for corresponding ITS 3.8.10, and is a proposed change relative to the Action for corresponding CTS,3/4.8.2.2 which states, ".

Comment:
DOC 03-03-LS does not address these proposed changes.
Revise the submittal to provide the appropriate justification for these proposed changes.

, JFD 3.8-35 ITS 3.8.10 Actions Note STS 3.8.10 Actions Bases for ITS 3.8.10 Actions, STS Bases markup page B 3.8-172 The Actions Note for ITS 3.8.10 states, "LCO 3.0.3 is not applicable." This Note is a proposed difference with corresponding STS 3.8.10. JFD 03-08-35 states that this proposed difference is consistent with TSTF-36.
Comment: TSTF-36 has not been approved yet. Revise the submittal to conform to the STS.

3.8.10-04 DC Bases for ITS LCO 3.8.10, STS Bases markup page B 3.8-170 Bases for STS LCO 3.8.10 The Bases for ITS LCO 3.8.10 describes distribution and source arrangements for the AC, DC, and 120 VACvital bus electrical power subsystems.
This is a proposed difference relative to the Bases for corresponding STS 3.8.10.
Comment:
No justification has been provided to support this proposed difference. Revise the submittal to provide the appropriate justification, or conform to the STS. The justification shall include an evaluation of all of the events identified in the USAR that are postulated to occur during the Applicability, with a determination of the acceptability of the distribution and source arrangements described by the proposed Bases.
The evaluation should confirm that all of the equipment that is assumed to operate to mitigate the various postulated events can still be relied on to operate.
Also explain the use of the startup cross-tie feeder breaker to cross-tie an.
D/G to another bus.
Has this administration control been a part of the CTS?
Is "another bus" part of the required OPERABLE AC subsystem?
