SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 98 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO.
NPF-21 WASHINGTON PUBLIC POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM NUCLEAR PROJECT NO.
2 DOCKET NO. 50-397
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated June 28, 1991, Washington Public Power Supply System submitted a request for changes to the Tcchnical Specifications (TS) for Nuclear Project No. 2.
The proposed changes would relocate the Radiological Effluent TS (RETS) to thc Offsitc Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).
The proposed changes are in accordance with the guidance provided in thc NRC Generic Letter (GL) 89-01, dated January 31, 1989.
GL 89-01 stated that thc NRC would approve a TS amendment to dclctc RETS if the requirements would be relocated to thc ODCM or Process Control Program.
2.0 DISCUSSION The following changes would bc made to the WNP-2 TS in order to relocate the RETS to the ODCM.
1.17 1.27 GASEOUS RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL SPECIFICATION TITLE DISPOSITION OF EXISTING SPECIFICATION Definition is rclocatcd to the ODCM.
Definition is updated to reflect thc change in scope of the ODCM.
1.33 1.42 PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM SOLIDIFICATION Definition is updated using guidance from GL 89-01.
Definition is relocated to the ODCM.
3/4.3.7.11 RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION Programatic controls are included in 6.8.4 d. Item 1).
Existing specification procedural details are relocated to the ODCM.

3.0 EVALUATION The proposed
- changes, as discussed
- above, are based on NRC GL 89-01 dated January 31, 1989.
The changes do not deviate from the guidance, specified in GL 89-01, for moving RETS to the ODCH.
In addition, the changes do not alter the conditions or assumptions of any accident analysis, as stated in the WNP-2 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report.
Therefore, we find the proposed changes to be acceptable.
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
In accordance with the Commission's requlations, the Washinqton State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment.
The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
This amendment involves a change to a requirement with respect to the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted areas as defined in 10 CFR Part 20 and changes surveillance requirements.
The NRC staff has determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
The Commission has previously

~ (~%
'I-l' issued a proposed finding that this amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comnent on such finding (56 FR 55951).
Accordingly, this amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).
This amendment also involves changes in recordkeeping, reporting or administrative procedures or requirements.
Accordingly, with respect to these items, the amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(cj(10).
Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b),
no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need by prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.
5.0 CONCLUSION
The Comnission has 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, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
