SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE. OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION'a*++
RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 89 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO; DPR-58 AND AMENDMENT NO. 74 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO.
OPR-74 INDIANA AND MICHIGAN ELECTRIC COMPANY DONALD C.
COOK NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT NOS.
1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-315 AND 50-316 Introduction By letter dated May 31, 1985 the Indiana and Michigan Electric Company (the licensee) submitted a proposed amendment to revise the Technical Specifications for the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit Nos.
1 and 2, to remove the program and records retention requirements pertaining to environmental qualification of equipment.
The licensee supplemented the request on June 7, 1985 in a correction memo to provide the attachments inadvertently left out of the May 31, 1985 letter.
The proposed amendment would remove. the Technical Specifications requirements under Section 6.13 which were added to the licenses by "Order for Modification of Licenses
" Concerning Environmental gualification of Safety Related Electrical Equipment" (Orders) dated October 24, 1980.
Evaluation The Orders dated October 24, 1980 were issued at the direction of the Comission to assure that the requirements,
- schedule, and records retention for environmental qualification of equipment were properly implemented.
Subsequent to the Orders, the Comission approved and issued revisions to
.Title 10 Part 50 of the Code of Federal Regulation, specifically 10 CFR 50;49, "Environmental gualification of Electric Equipment Important to Safety for Nuclear Power Plants" (48 FR 2733, January 21, 1983, as amended at 49 FR 45576, November 19, 1984).
The new regulation is applicable to the D. C.
Cook Plant and contains all the updated and appropriate program schedules and records retention requirements.
As such, the Technical Specifications Section
- 6. 13 has been superseded and this Section can be removed from the license.
We find the licensee's proposal to delete Section 6.13 "Environmental gualification" to be acceptable.
The licensee has also proposed to rearrange the records retention items in Section
- 6. 10 based on the records requirements stated in 10 CFR 50.49 which should allow deletion of the Technical Specification requirements on environmental qualification.
We find the rearrangement of this 5ection to be appropriate and acceptable.
Environmental Consideration These amendments involve a change in the installation or use of the facilities components located within the restricted areas as defined in 10 CFR 20.
The staff has determined that these amendments involve no 8508300430 8508l9 PDR ADOCK 05000315 P
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 issued a proposed finding that these amendments involve no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comment on such finding.
Accordingly, these amendments meet the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).
Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b) no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of these amendments.
Conclusion We have 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, and (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations and the issuance of these amendments will not ke inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
