The issuance of this license amendment conplies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, ds amended (the Act), and the Comnission's regulations set forth in 10 CFR Chapter I; B.

The far lity will operate in conformity with the application, as the provisions of the Act, and the regulations of the Commission; C.

There is reasonable assurance (i) that the activities authorized by this amendment can be conducted without endangering the health and safety of the public, and (ii) that such activities will be conducted in compliance with the regulations of the Conmission's regul at ions ;

D.

The issuance of this amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public; and E.

The issuance of this amendment is in accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 of the Commission's regulations and all applicable requirements have been satisfied.

2.

Accordingly, the license is amended by changes to the Technical Specifications as indicated in the attachment to this license amendment and by amending Section 2.C.(2) of Facility Operating License No. NPF-6 as follows:

2.C.(2) Technical Specifications The Technical Specifications contained in Appendices A & B, as revised through Amendment No. 9 are hereby incorporated in license NPF-6.

Arkansas Power and Light Company shall operate the facility in accordance with the Technical Specifications except for the following specific exemption.

7 9 0 4 0 0 0 0F92_

2-The licensee shall be exempted f rom ccmpliance with the following Appendix A Technical Specification related to the steam generator low water level trip setpoint while conducting the stean generator feedwater system waterhancer testing during the initial startup and power ascension testing program.

SAFETY LIMITS AND LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS 2.2 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS REACTOR TRIP SETPOINTS 2.2.1 The reactor protective instrumentation setpoints shall be set consistent with the Trip Setpoint values shown in Table 2.2-1.

APPLICABILITY: As shown for each channel in Taole 3.3-1.

ACTION:

With a reactor protective instrumentation setpoint less conservative than tne value shown in the Allowable Values column of Table 2.2-1, declare the channel inoperable and apply the applicable ACTION statement requirement of Specification 3.3.1.1 until the channel is restored to OPERABLE status with its trip setpoint adjusted consistent with the Trip Setpoint value.

ARKANSAS-UNIT 2 3/46-7 Amendment No. 9

CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS CONTAINMENT STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION 3.6.1.5 The structural integrity of the containment shall be miintained at a level consistent with the acceptance criteria in Specification 4.6.1.5.

APPLICABILITY: MODES 1, 2, 3 and 4.

ACTION:

With the structural integrity of the containment not conforming to the above requirements, restore the structural integrity to within the limits within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or be in at least HOT STANDBY within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in COLD SHUTDOWN within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.

SURVEILLANCE REOUIREMENTS 4.6.1.5.1 Containment Tendons The containment tendons ' structural integrity shall be demonstrated at the end of one, three and five years following the initial containment structural integrity test and at five year intervals thereafter. The tendons' structural integrity shall be demonstrated by a visual examination (to the extent practical and with-out dismantling load bearing components of the anchorage) of a repre-sentative sample

  • of at least 21 tendon dome, 5 vertical, and 10 hoop) ard verifying no abnormal degradation. Unless there is evidence of abnormal degradation of the containment tendons during the first three tests of the tendons, the number of tendons examined during sub-sequent tests may be reduced to a representative sample of at least 9 tendons (3 dome, 3 vertical and 3 hoop).
  • For each inspection, the tendons shall be selected on a random but representative basis so that the sample group will change somewhat for each inspection; however, to develop a history of tendon performance and to correlate the observed data, one tendon from each group (dome, vertical, and hoop) may be kept unchanged after the initial selection.
