Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License Correction ofTypographical Errors, Request for Exigent Consideration Rochester Gas k Electric Corporation R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Docket No. 50-244

Letter from R.C. Mecredy, RGB, to G. Vissing, NRC,
Subject:
Application forAmendment to IIacilityOperating License, Correction ofTypographical Errors, dated May 8, 1996
Dear Mr. Vissing,
By Reference (a), RGB submitted a license amendment request (LAR) to correct several typographical errors recently discovered within the Ginna Station Improved Technical Specifications (ITS). NRC approval ofthis LARwas requested by June 2, 1996 prior to a planned entry into MODE 2'at which time the LCO with the most limiting error would apply.
This is approximately 3 weeks from the date of the LARsubmittal, which is less than the 30 days required for public notice in the Federal Register for a normal technical specification change request.
As such, RGB requests that the LARbe considered on an exigent basis in accordance with 10 CFR 50.91 for the reasons described below.
On February 24, 1996, RGB implemented the ITS at Ginna Station per Amendment No. 61.
Currently, Ginna Station is in a defueled condition while in the performance of a steam generator l.eplacement project. While in this condition, several typographical errors have been discovered within the ITS by various plant staff personnel.
In general, these errors are minor and are readily apparent.
However, several errors could lead to confusion and a potential incorrect application of a requirement.
The correction ofthese more limitingerrors is required prior to enter MODE 2.
ing ai ure to correct these known errors would therefore prevent a scheduled resumption in power operation.
As demonstrated in Reference (a), the errors in question are administrative issues only and do not involve a significant hazards consideration.

Consequently, RGB requests NRC consideration of this LARon an exigent basis in order to support a planned entry into MODE 2 on June 2, 1996. Upon NRC approval, the LARshould be considered effective immediately and implemented within 7 days. Allother attachments to the Reference (a) submittal are unchanged by this exigent request.
Very t y yours, Robert C. Mecredy Subscribed and sworn to before me on this 10th day ofMay 1996.
