Ci October 24, 1979 Docket No. 50-219 Mr. I. R. Frinfrock, Jr., Vice President - Generation Jersey Central Power & Light Company Madison Avenue at Punch Bowl Road Morristown, New Jersey 07960
Dear Mr. Frinfrock:
By letter dated June 1,1979, you submitted the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS) for Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant, for your proposed change request number 69 to Provisional Operating License No. DPR-16. We have reviewed the submitted RETS and found that the submittal did not include:
(1) definition of terms, (2) specifications for radioactive gaseous and liquid effluent monitors and the surveillance requirements, (3) action statements for each specification in the PITS or a modification which accomplishes the intent of the action statements in the model RETS, (4) specifications for solid radioactive waste, (5) a process control program (PCP) for solidification of radwaste, and (6) an offsite dose calculation manual (ODCM). These omissions were pointed out to your staff in the information meeting held September 13, 1979, between NRC and JCPL.
During the informat10, meeting, we indicated to you that the model RETS had been approved by the Regulatory Requirements Review Connittee. The memorandum from B. Grimes and D. Eisenhut to A. Schwencer, et al., dated June 26,1978, and the memorandym from H. Denton to R. Minogue and J. Davis, dated October 20,1978, concerning R3C Committee approval are attached in response to your request.
In'tha letter and the information meeting mentioned above, you stated that solidification of wastes would be carried ou in accordance with the plant procedures, that the PCP and ODCM should best be included in the plant procedures and that these procedures are available. for review by the NRC Office of Inspection and Enforcement.
As we indicated in the infonnation meeting the plant procedures conthin infonnation in greater detail than we need, and NRR does not review plant procedures.
Accordingly, we need separate documents that are prepared specifically for the RETS following the guides for the PCP and ODCM which were attached to the June 18, 1979 memorandum.

Mr. I. R. Frinfrock, Jr. October 24, 1979 In the Safety Evaluation Report for Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant, dated December 23, 1968, we concluded that i.ne solid radwaste system of the Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant was adequate. The RETS implement the criteria used in our review of the radwaste systems, including the solid radwaste system.
In addition, a PCP for solidification is needed to provide reasonable assurance that the solid radwaste system will produce an acceptable product. Accordingly, we find it unacceptable for JCPL not to include the technical specifications for solid radioactive waste in the Oyster Creek RETS and not to include a PCP for solidification of radwaste required by the technical specifications.
If the solid radwaste system of the Oyster Cieek Nuclear Power Plant is not capable of performing its intended functions, then JCPL should define the limitations of the E:isting system and should provide a PCP to cover the waste that can be processed by the existing system.
In addition, JCPL should provide a schedule for upgrading the solid radwasta system to possess the capability of processing all types of waste to be shipped offsite. Where a vendor service is contracted for the solidification of radwaste, the PCP for the vendor's system should be provided.
In the information meeting of September 13, 1979, you indicated that certain deficiencies in the RETS submitted for the Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant will be corrected. We request that you revise the proposed RETS to include corrections to all the omissions mentioned above. Please submit the revised RETS for the Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant by November 30,1979.
Sincerely, h
