UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 102 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO.

DPR-63 NIAGARA MOHAWK POWER CORPORATION NINE MILE POINT NUCLEAR POWER STATION UNIT NO.

1 DOCKET NO. 50-220 INTRODUCTION By letter (NMP1L 0238) dated March 28,

1988, from C. V. Mangan, Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation (NMPC), to NRC, the licensee requested certain changes be made to Technical Specification 6.2.

These changes are intended to make Table 6.2-1 consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i) and Specification 6.7.2.e and to clarify the staffing required during hot shutdown versus that required durino cold shutdown and refueling.

The staff's evaluation of the requested changes is given below.

DISCUSSION AND EVALUATION The licensee proposes to specify that the number of licensed operators required on shift during normal operation and hot shutdown condition be two.

This would be accomplished by changing the appropriate number I to 2 in Table 6.2-1 and applying Note (4) to that number.

Note (4) has been changed to clarify the requirements so that only one licensed operator is required during cold shutdown or refueling.

The change to Note (4) also clarifies the requirements for the number of licensed senior operators on shift for the different modes of operation.

The resulting specification is in conformance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i) and is, therefore, acceptable.

The proposed change to Note (7) of Table 6.2-1 would eliminate the redundancy between the two sentences of the present Note (7) and would make Note (7) consistent with Specification 6.2.2.e.

This is an administrative change only and is, therefore, acceptable.

Environmental Consideration This amendment involves only changes in administrative procedure and requirements.

Accordingly, this amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR Section 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 this amendment.

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