l ATTACHMMLC LVAludilotLDLSIGNIFICANT HAZARD CORSlDIFAUORS l l'

Commonwealth Edison has evaluated this proposed amendment and has  :

determined that it soes not involve a significant hazards consideration.  :

According to 10 CFR 50.92(c), a proposed amendment to an operating license involves no significant hazards considerations if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amehdment would not:  !

1. Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident piaviously evaluated; or
2. Create the pcssibility of a new or different kind of accident frm any accident previously evaluated; or
3. Involve a significent reduction in a margin of safety.

The nroposed amendment requests a change which involves revising Technical Specification 3/4.8.3.1 to increase the allowed action time from 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Mr an AC instrument bus te be disconnected from its associated inverter. Two additional surveillance requirements (4.8.3.1.2 and '

4.8.3.1.3) are proposed. Surveillance 4.8.3.1.2 will verify that the 480 VAC  ;

ESF bus supplying the constant voltage transformer is energized in the ,

required manner within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> and at least once per 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> thereafter.

Surveillance 4.8.3.1.3 will verify that the other three instrument busses are tnergized from an OPERABLE inverter within the same time period. This amendment is requested to allow sufficient time to fully troubleshoot and repa!r failed inverters and to provide sufficient time for preventive maintenance to be performed on operable inverteis while in modes 1 through 4.

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

Increasing the action time to allow one 120 VAC instrument bus to be energited from its associated constant voltage transformer from 24 houts to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> does not significantly increase the probability of an accident previously evaluated. The loss of a single 120 VAC instrument bus is not in itself an l initiating event in any cf the accidents presented in Chapter 15 of the FSAR.

I With one of the instrument busses on its constant voltage transformer instead of its associated inverter there is some loss of redundancy in bus power supplies due to the loss of feed from the inverter to the 125V DC bus. This

! lots of redandancy may result in an increased probability of a spurious l reactor trip and/or safety injection, and loss of one train of ESF output relays. It is felt that this increase is not significant dua to the following:

1 0308T:12

1. The 480 VAC ESF bus is a very reliable source of power to the constant i voltage transformers. The 480 VAC ESF bus receives power fr m the 4.16kV  :

, ESF hus which in turn is capable of receiving power 6 m the Unit  ;

Aux 111ary, Transformer (UAT), Station Aux 111ary 7:ensformer (SAT), the emergency diesel generator and the SAT of the opposite unit. -

2. The constant voltage transformer is a reliable piece of equipment classified as Safety Category I (Class IE) and is required for safe shutdown. The failure probability of the constant voltage transformer, ,

while not quantified, is considered to be small. This is substantiated by  !

the fact that no failures have occurred on any of the sixteen constant i voltage transforme.s installed on Byron and Braidwood Units 1 and 2. This was determined based on a review of the Nuclear Plant Reliability Data ,

System.

3. Two surveillances 4.8.3.1.2 and 4.8.3.1.3, have been proposed to ensure  ;

the reliability of the three unaffected instrument busses and the instrument bus on the constant voltage transformer. -

Also, it should be noted that the Allowable Outage Time is only being ,

increased when one redundant power supply to an instrument bus is out-of-service. There are three additional instrument busses (while not totally redundant they have several overlapping capabilities) that would remain operable in accordance with Specification 3.8.3.1.

Increasing the action time to allow o'ie 120 VAC instrument ha to be energized from its associated constant voltage transformer from 24 f.ours to 71 .

hours does not significantly increase the consequences of an accident previously evaluated. The current Technical Specifications (3/4.8.3.1) and the FSAR (Section 15.0.1.1) allow operation with the inverter out-of-service for 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. Extending this period to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> will not alter the plant .

response to a loss of a 120 VAC instrument bus should the constant voltage '

transfoimer fall while supplying the instrument bus. Off normal procedures r have already been developed and would be used by the operators to address this situation.

The proposed change does not create the possibility of a n o or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. ,

Increasing the action iime to allow one 120 VAC instrument bus to be energized from its associated constant voltage transformer from 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to 72 hoars will not create any new modes of plant operation beyond those normally performed. The proposed change does not involve a modificat! a to currently installed systema or equipment or require operation in a man n different from that currently allowed. The constant voltage transformer is designed for continuous operation so the extended action time is within design limitations. <

0308T:11

l V h .

The change is administrative in nature and as such it has no impact -

[' on the accident analysis from the standpoint of the possibility of creating a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

.[ The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a t margin of safety. ,

o Previously evaluated accidents demonstrate margins of safety. These accident analyses are based on the availability of a minimum set of safety equipment and do not take into account allowable outage times for equipment.

Therefore, there is no margin of safety associated with allowable outage times. .

s ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Commonwealth Edison has evaluated the proposed amendment against the (

. criteria for and identification of licensing and regulatory actions requiring l l environmental assessment in accordance with 10 CFR 51.21. It has been I determined that the proposed changes meet the criteria for a categorical  !

exclusion as provided for under 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9) and (10). Following is a .

discussion of the changes and how they meet the criteria for categorical exclusion.

The change to Specification 3/4.8.3.1 increases the action time allowed for an A.C. instrument bus to be energized from a source other than  ;

from the inverter connected to its associated D.C. bus from 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. . Two additional surveillances, 4.8.3.1.2 and 4.8.3.1.3, have been added for verification of energization of the affected instrument bus from the 480 VAC bus supplying its constant voltage transfer and verification of energiza-tion of the three unaffected busses from their inverters, respectively. This does not involve a change in the use of a facility component located in the t restricted area.

The preceding change does not involve a significant hazards .

consideration as discussed in Attachment C of this letter. Also there is no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any i effluents that may be released offsite since this change does not affect the '

generation of any radioactive effluents nor does it affect any of the permitted release paths. Finally, the change does not involve a significant ,

increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.

Therefore, this change meets the categorical exclusion permitted by 10 CFR

- 51.22(c)(9).
