SECTION 6 - ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS Attached are three (3) original and thirty-seven (37) conformed copies of a request for changes to the Palisades and Big Rock Point Technical Specifications .

  • Consumers Power Company elected two new Vice Presidents on July 11, 1979 as part of an energy supply organizational realignment. The election of a Vice President for Nuclear Operations necessitates changes to our plant Technical Specifications Administrative Controls Section. The organizational changes have b.een implemented because of the increased emphasis placed on nuclear power in our Company and the industry and to recognize the added impact of all major generating plants and integrated system operations on the overall success of the Company.

The requested changes are administrative in nature and, therefore, fall into the licensing fee category of 10 CFR 170.22, Class II. A check in the amount of $1,200 is attached for each plant.

It is requested that these changes be issued as soon as possible.

CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY Docket 50-155 Request for Change to the Technical Specifications License DPR-6 For the reasons hereinafter set forth, it is requested that the Technical Specifi-cations contained in Facility Operating License DPR-6, Docket 50-155, issued to Consl.UTlers Power Company on May l, 1964, for the Big Rock Point Plant be changed as described in Section I below:

I. Change ( s )

All changes are identified in Attachment 1.

II. Discussion On July 11, 1979, Consumers Power Company elected two new Vice Presidents as part of a realignment in the Energy Supply organization. In this change, Russell B DeWitt was named Vice President for Nuclear Operations. The organi-zational changes were made to recognize the increased emphasis placed on nuclear power at Consumers Power and the industry; and, to recognize the added impact of all major generating plants and integrated system operations on the overall success of Consumers Power Company. In addition to the new Vice Presi-dent position, each of Consumers Power Company's major plants will be headed by a General Manager who will report directly to an officer of the Company. The Big Rock Point Plant (because of its size) will be headed by a Plant Superin-tendent reporting directly to the Vice President for Nuclear Operations.

The proposed plant organization parallels that currently used at our Midland Plant. Under the proposed organization, responsibilities of the Plant Superin-.

tendent -and the Operations & Maintenance Superintendent are modified. The Plant Superintendent is responsible for the safe, reliable and efficient oper-ation of the Big Rock Point Plant. The Operations & Maintenance Superintendent is responsible for coordinating the efforts of the operations, maintenance and health physics functions of the plant. The personnel who have responsibility in these operational, maintenance and radiation protection areas report to the Operations & Maintenance Superintendent. This represents an enhancement of management attention to safety and radiation protection because the Operations

& Maintenance Superintendent will not be responsible for the administrative

  • functions to be handled by the Plant Superintendent or other personnel report-ing to the Plant Superintendent.

\

  • All proposed changes within the text of the Administrative Controls Section (Chapter 6) of the Technical Specifications are consistent with the changes on the organization charts (Figures 6.2-1 and 6.2-2).

III. Conclusion(s)

Based on the foregoing, both the Big Rock Point Plant Review Committee and the Safety and Audit Review Board have reviewed these changes and recommend their approval.

  • CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY Docket 50-255 Request for Change to the Technical Specifications License DPR-20 For the reasons hereinafter set forth, it is requested that the Technical Speci fi-cations contained in Provisional Operating License DPR-20, Docket 50-255, issued to Consumers Power Company on October 16, 1972, for the Palisades Plant be* changed as described in Section I below:

I. Change ( s)

A. All changes relative to the organizational changes are in Attachment 2.

B. In accordance with Technical Specification 3.20.l.d, Table 3.20.1 has been revised to include fo:ur new snubbers which were added during a recent plant shutdown. The revised page is attached.

II. Discussion A. On July 11, 1979, Consumers Power Company elected two new Vice Presidents as part of a realignment in the Energy Supply organization. In this

  • change, Russell B DeWitt was named Vice President for Nuclear Operations .

The organizational changes were made to recognize the increased emphasis placed on nuclear power at Consumers Power and the industry; and, to recog-nize the added impact of all major generating plants and integrated system operations on the overall success of the Consumers Power Company. In addi-tion to the new Vice President position, each of the Consumers Power Company's major plants (Palisades Plant included) will be headed by a General Manager who will report directly to an officer of the Company.

The proposed plant organization parallels that currently used at our Midland Plant. Under the proposed organization, a new position of General Manager is created and the responsibilities of the Plant Superintendent are modified.

The General Manager is responsible for the safe, reliable and efficient oper.:.

ation of the Palisades Plant. The Plant Superintendent is responsible for coordinating the efforts of operations, maintenance and health physics functions of the plant. The personnel who have responsibility in these operational, maintenance and radiation protection areas report to the Plant Superintendent. This represents an enhancement of management attention to safety and radiation protection because the Plant Superinten-dent will not be responsible for the administrative :f'unctions to be handl-ed by the General Manager or other personnel reporting to. the General

  • Manager.

All proposed changes within the text of the Ad.mini strati ve Controls Section (Chapter 6) of the Technical Specifications are consistent with the changes on the organization charts (Figures 6.2-1 and 6.2-2).

B. The Palisades Plant Technical Specifications Section 3.20.1. d reads, "Snubbers may be added to safety-related systems without prior license amendment to Table 3.20.1 provided that a revision to Table 3.20.1 is included with the next license Amendment request". The additional snubbers were recently added (Reference letter from D P Hoffman to D L Ziemann dated May 16, 1979) and this is Consumers Power Company's next Amendment req~st.

III. Conclusion(s)

Based on the foregoing, both the Palisades Plant Review Committee and the Safety and Audit Review Board have reviewed these changes and recommend their approval .
