SAFETY EVALUATION Re:
St. Lucie Unit 1
Docket No. 50-335 Pro osed Tech S ec Amendment I.
Introduction This evaluation supports a proposal to (1) revise specification 1.6 to incorporate an explicit definition of OPERABLE, and (2) modify specification 3.0.3 and add specification 3.0.5 to ensure that the Limiting Conditions for Operation do address multiple outages of redundant components, and the effects of outages of any support systems.
II.
Discussion The proposed revision to Technical Specifications 1.6 and 3.0.3 and the addition of Technical Specification 3.0.5 are necessary to comply with USNRC letter dated April 10, 1980.
The purposes of these changes are to clarify the meaning of the term OPERABLE and to assure proper action is taken to preserve the single failure criterion for systems that are relied upon in the FSAR.
Essentially, the proposed changes do not change the intent of the existing Technical Specification; the proposed changes more precisely define the proper courses of action to ensure safe operation of the units.
III. Conclusion We have concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that:
(1) the amendment does not increase the probability or consequences of accidents previously considered and does not reduce the margin of safety, (2) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed
- manner, and (3) 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.
