Re:
Oconee Nuclear Station Docket Nos. 50-269, -270, -287 cs.
Dear Mr. Rusche:
As stated in our response to April 12, 1977 to Item 1 of IE Inspection Report 50-269, -270, -287/77-2 and pursuant to 10CFR50, 550.90, an amendment to Section 4.1 of the Oconee. Nuclear Station Technical Speci-fications, Appendix A to Facility Operating Licenses DPR-38, -47, and
-55 is requested.
Proposed replacement pages for Technical Specifica-tion Table 4.1-3 are attached.
The proposed change to Technical Specification Table 4.1-? defines provisions to identify and/or account for radionuclides which may be present at low activity levels in mixtures of gamma emitters. Due to other radionuclides, which are present in the samples at much higher activity levels, it may not be possible to measure the activity level of some radionuclides at their specified sensitivity limit.
This change is considered necessary to resolve the problem of accounting for these low activity radionuclides.
The provisions as stated in the technical specification change consist of re-i ^ 2ntifying the gamma isotopic analysis to an analysis of principal gamma emitters.
In this analysis, the minimum detectable activities (MDA) of the nuclides not meeting the sensitivity limits of Table 4.1-3 will be compared with the total activity present from other nuclides.
If the MDA of each of these nuclides is less than 1% of the total activity present, it will not be included in the total activity deter-mination.
If it is greater than 1% of the total activity present, it will be added to the total activity at its MDA concentration.
Ver-truly yours, q
