J Public Service Electric and Gas Company Louis F. Storz Public Service Electric and Gas Company P.O. Box 236, Hancocks Bridge, NJ 08038 Senior Vice President - Nuclear Operations OCT 311996 LR-N96336 United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555 SUPPLEMENT TO REQUEST FOR CHANGE TO TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS MAIN STEAMLINE ISOLATION VALVE TESTING LCR S96-12 SALEM GENERATI~G STATION NOS. 1 AND 2 FACILITY OPERATING LICENSES DPR-70 AND DPR-75 DOCKET NOS. 50-272 AND 50-311 Gentlemen:
By letter LR-N96285, dated October 1, 1996, Public Service Electric & Gas Company (PSE&G) submitted a request to amend Technical Specification (TS) 3/4.7.1.5 pertaining to Salem Generating Station's Main Steamline Isolation Valves (MSIVs)
This letter provides a supplement to that request.
609-339-5700 The requested change to the MSIV TS revises the surveillance requirement to exclude the provisions of Specification 4.0.4 and addresses actions taken should a MSIV be inoperable while operating in Modes 1-3.
In the submittal, PSE&G requested that the TS actions for operation in Mode 1 be revised to allow the plant to proceed to Mode 2 within six hours if an inoperable MSIV cannot be restored to operable within four hours.
This would allow sufficient time for operators to place the plant in a safe condition to close the valve.
If the valve is unable to be closed while in Mode 2, the plant shutdown would continue to Mode 4 within twelve hours as required by the current TS.
PSE&G has amended the proposed TS wording, (refer to the attached TS pages), to include an additional action to perform a weekly check of the closed valve(s) and also to separate the twelve hours for achieving Hot Shutdown into two intervals: six hours to transition to Mode 3, Hot Standby, and an additional six hours to transition to Mode 4.
These changes are proposed to provide
\\
greater consistency with the requirements of NUREG-1431,
~ D "Standard Technical Specifications - Westinghouse Plants,"
(~
Revision 1.
All other proposed changes to the TSs detailed in letter LR-N96285 remain as submitted.
