DPR-74 for the D.
C.
Cook Nuclear Plant Unit No. 2.
The amendment requested permission to allow operation of D.
C.
Cook Unit No.
2 with the EXXON Nuclear Company power distribution control procedures.
Evaluation EXXON Power Distribution Control - Phase 2 has been approved for reference and use in Westinghouse designed reactors.
The approved method is described in J.
Holm and R. Burnside "EXXON Nuclear Power Distribution Control for Pressurized Water Reactors - Phase 2," XN-NF-77-57(A), May 1981.
The proposed changes to the D.
C.
Cook Unit 2 Technical Specifications are in conformance with the sample specifications in the approved document and are, therefore, acceptable.
The proposed changes will thus not significantly reduce the safety margins established for the D.
C.
Cook Unit 2 reactor, nor adversely affect the health and safety of the public.
Environmental Consideration We have determined ~that the..amendment does not, authorize a change in effluent -types or 'total amounts nor an increase in power level and will not result in any significant environmental impact.
Having made this deter-
- mination, we have further concluded that the amendment involves an action which is insignificant from the standpoint of environmental impact and, pursuant to 10 CFR 551.5(d)(4), that an environmental impact statement or negative declaration and environmental impact appraisal need not be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.
Conclusion We have concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that:
(1) because the amendment does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of accidents previously considered and does not involve a significant decrease in a safety margin, the amendment does not Bz6iisoia6 azoso4 PDR.noacv osooasie',fDR
involve a significant hazards consideration, (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.
