Commission (the Coinmission) is issuing

Identification ofProposed Action:

Paragraph

)II.D.3 ofAppendix J states that Type C testing on valves shall be performed during each reactor shutdown for refueling but in no case at intervals greater than two years. The propascd exemption would eliminate the rcquircment af Type C testing ofthc Traversing Incorc Probe (TIP) Systems B. Leak Rata?astirrg ofMain Stcam Isolation 3'olvcs (hISIl's)

Identification ofProposed Action: Thc exemption would exclude the measured leakage for thc MS)Vs from the combined leak rate far thc local leak rate test. The cxcmptian wau)d also allow th>> leak test for thc MS)Vs to be perfonncd at reduced pressures. This is an cxcmption from the testing requiriunent of Paragraph III.C.2(b) of Appendix J which requires valves, which are scaled with fluid from a seal system. to be pressurized with that fluid to a pressure not less than 1.10Pa.

¹cdfar Pmposed Actions The exemption is needed because the design shear valves. Thc TIP systcn: is equipped with tivo iso)at)nn va) vcs ovtside the contaiment. one is a solenoid-operated ball valve and the, other is an explosive shear valve. Since the shear valve requires testing to destruction, the applicant has requested an exemption from Type C testing of thc shear valve.

Need forProposed Action: Thc exemption is required in order for the applicant to avoid continuous)y d<<stroying TIP system shear valves.

Ea viraamantal laipact ofPtrpposad Action: Tire cxvmption would allow the J tl ok+
