- Syracuse, New York 13212
Dear Burkhardt:
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - LICENSEE AMENDIIENT APPLICATION CONCERNING GENERIC LETTER 87-09 FOR NINE NILE POINT UNIT tl0. 2 (TAC NO. 68463)
The basis for accepting Specification 3.0.4, related amendments under Generic Letter 87-09, is predicated on two assumptions: I) that the remedial measures prescribed by the Technical Specification ACTION STATEMENTS for which the exception will be granted provide a sufficient level of protection to permit operational mode changes and safe long-term operation consistent with the licensing basis described in the Final Safety Analysis Report for Nine Mile Point Unit No. 2; and 2) that it will be the exception when plant startup commences with important safety features inoperable, irrespective of the exceptions granted in response to applications under Generic Letter 87-09.
He have reviewed your license amendment application concerning Generic Letter 87-09, submitted June 14, 1988.
In order, for the NRC staff to conclude that the safety basis relative to the above stated assumptions is satisfied, we request that for each proposed Technical Specification exception to be granted under Generic Letter 87-09, you affirm that remedial measures prescribed for the affected ACTION STATEMENTS are consistent with the Final Safety Analysis Report and its supporting safety analyses.
In addition, we request that you identify and affirm those administrative controls (e.g.,
maintenance program provisions, plant operating procedures, management directives, onsite safety reviews, etc.) that have been established to limit the use of the Specification 3.0.4 exceptions granted.
Your affirmation should address training necessary for ensuring that plant operators are made aware of, and are instructed to exercise the controls promulgated in limiting the use of such exceptions.
