ENCLOSURE 3 UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON. o. C. 20555 MAR 7 M
SUM 4ARY OF MEETING HELD IN BETHESDA ON THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF BABCOCK 4 WILCOX STANDARD TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS (B6W-STS)
On February 24, 1975, representatives from Duke Power Company, Florida Power Corporatian, Metropolitan Edison Company, Sacramento Municipal Utility District, Toledo Edison Company, Babcock & Wilcox Company, and the NRC met at the Phillips Building, Bethesda, Maryland. A list of attendees is enclosed.
'The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the B6W Utility Group review of the B6W-STS. Agenda items prepared by the Utility Group were discussed i
covering the following topics.
1.
Organization and interface with NRC for STS review.
1 2.
Time constraints for review completion, particularly as related to licensing of Davis-Besse.
3.
The need for inclusion in STS of requirements outside plant design.
a.
STS more restrictive than ASME code or design criteria.
b.
Response time testing.
c.
Channel calibration as defined in STS.
d.
Inclusion of non-nuclear safety-related equip $ent in LCO's.
4.
Acceptability of currently standardized B6W Tech Specs.
5.
Involvement of NRC regional personnel.
6.
Relationship of STT, to Environmental Tech Specs.
7.
Appropriateness of requirements for analysis in action section of STS.
8.
Use of B6W nomenclature.
9.
Legal status of bases.

- 10. Applicability of STS to non-177 plants.
- 11. Criteria for determining surveillance time requirements.
The details of the meeting and conclusions are presented in Enclosure 2.
The next meeting on March 4, 197S will review the specific comments on B4W-STS Definitions and Safety Limits.

s ENCLOSURE NO. 2 DETAILS OF MEETING KEYED TO AGENDA ITEMS 1.
The Standard Technical Specification Group (STSG) will interface with the Utility Group during the review and development of the generic B4W-STS. The assigned Licensing Project Manager (LPM) will interface with the applicant during the implementation of the B5W-STS on individual dockets. The STSG will coordinate the implementation effort with the LPM and applicant to provide guidance and insure uniformity of applica-tion. The NRC will, upon request of the Utility Group, issue letters to each of the utilities in the group inviting their participation in the review and development of the B6W-STS.
2.
The review and development of the BSW-STS will be completed by June 30, 1975. The implementation of the STS on Davis-Besse Unit I will be done on a sectional basis following completion of each B6W-STS sectional review by approximately 30 days, All instances of STS requirements being more restrictive than 3.
a.
's ASME Code requirements or design criteria will be identified and resolved during the review of the specific STS sections.
b.
The requirement for periodic response time testing of the Reactor Protection System and certain Engineered Safety Features represents an established NRC position stated in the 5tdndard Review Plan. This requirement is necessary to confirm the validity of assumptions used in the accident analyses, The definition of Channel Calibration in the STS is consistent c.
with that used by IEEE-279 which requires the sensor to be included 3.n the calibration.
d.
All instances of inclusion of non-safety related specifications in the STS will be identified and resolved during review of specific sections.
4.
The Utility Group pointed out that technical specifications for current B6W 177 fuel element plants represented in their view "Standardi:ed 177 Technical Specifications" and were, therefore, suitable for use on the remaining 177 type plants to be licensed. They stated that the imposition of the NRC B5W-STS on 177 plants at this time was inappropriate and would involve an unnecessary expenditure of time and manpower to accommodate the review and modification of plant

2-procedures and possible retraining of operations personnel.
- We r.oted the relevance of these factors and responded that we believed the overall gains to be achieved on a long term basis through the standardization effort would offset these concerns.
In addition, we noted that the B6W-STS'for 177 plants would be used as the. basis for development of STS's applicable to later generations of B&W plants now in the licensing process.
S.
OISE involvement in the B6W-STS review will be coordinated through Ray Hall of Headquarters according to previously established methods.
The assigned OI6E inspector will be invited to attend and participate in meetings when the B6W-STS is implemented on individual cases.
6.
Conflicts between the B6W-STS and the Environmental Technical Speci-fications will be identified and resolved during application on individual cases.
7.
The basis for definition of analysis requirements will be identified and resolved during the review of specific STS sections.
8.
B4W nomenclature will be used in the B4W-STS to describe systems,
\\
equipment and structures; however, the terminology for mode identi-fication will remain standardi:cd between the PWR vendors.
9.
The Bases for the B4W-STS are not a part of the technical specifications pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36 but do provide a summary statement.of the justification for each specification. Additional effort will be directed toward providing more definitive bases material during review of the B4W-STS.
t
- 10. As was noted in agenda item 4, the current B6W-STS will be used as the basis for STS's development for future classes of B6W plants.
I
- 11. The surveillance requirements in the B6W-STS are consistent with those used in other vendor ST 's for comparable equipment. The l
requirements represent the staff's best estimate of the frequency and type of testing required to insure equipment operability. based on data accumulated frca operating plants.
