Dear Mr. Rusche:
Pursuant to 10CFR50, 550.90, an amendment to Section 3.9 of the Oconee Nuclear Station Technical Specifications, Appendix A to Facility Operating Licenses DPR-38, -47, -55 is requested. Proposed replacement pages for Technical Specification 3.9.7 are attached.
The proposed change to Technical Specification 3.9.7 provides provisions for implementing alternate measures-to assure that release limits for liquid waste effluents are not exceeded whenever liquid waste monitors cannot be set to properly alarm and control liquid releases. This provision is considered necessary while efforts are being made to-resolve problems with high background which have been experienced in the liquid effluent monitors. These high background readings prevent the setting of these monitors to function as required by Technical
. Specification 3.9.7.
The alternate proposed measures as stated in the specification change consist of redundant valve line-up checks and redundant sampling / analyses as discussed in our letter of May 14, 1976 submitted as a supplemental response to OIE Inspection Report 50-269/76-2.
Currently, a task force is investigating the high background problem associated with the liquid ef-fluent monitors.
It is anticipated that this problem will be resolved by December 1 -1976 at which time the' additional proposed requirements of Technical Specification 3.9.7 will be deleted.
In the interim, although no accurate alarm setpoint can be determined, liquid effluent monitors RIA-33 and -34 will be utilized to the extent possib e to detect 1 quid effluent release rates.
