Operating License No. DPR-73 Docket No. 50-320 Technical Specirication Change No.~ 26 Addendum A The licensee requests that the attached change pages, 3-21, 3-22 of the (TMI-IITechnicalSpecifications,AppendixB,besubstitutedforthe existing Technical Specifications.
Reason For Change
.The proposed change to the TMI-II Technical Specifications, Appendix B suspends the requirements for an Aerial Remote Monitoring Program. The monitoring program was initiated in 1977, and the required monitoring has The purpose of the monitoring program was to detect the been performed.
impact of salt drift from the cooling towers on the local plant life, and The results of this mineral content of the soil in the TMI vicinity.
program has shown no adverse effect'from the salt drift on the local plant life for mineral content of the soil. In: addition, the NRC NUREG-0738
(" Investigations of Reported Plant and Animal Health Effects in the Three Mile Island Area',' " Sections 3.3, 4.2.2, and 5.2) have shown no adverse effect on the monitored items.
/
Since the initiation of the monitoring program, the design use of the cooling ;
2 towers has been suspended. No further deposition of salt will occur until full operations are renewed. There may be some operation of the cooling towers,/
/
but 'the operations will be at low loadings and of relatively short duration.
Since no effect was seen from full power operation, it is expected that the '
minimal operations that may occur during the shut down interval will not '
contribute to salt deposition.
Since no further deposition will occur due to the suspension of operations at design capactities, it is requested that the requirements of Sectior. 3.1.2.b(1) l of the Technical Specifications be suspended until the THI-II cooling towers t
l are returned to full operation.
i Safety Evaluation Justifying Change The' proposed change has been evaluated for effects to the health and safety of
~
the public. Since the inception of this program, there has been no observable l
i effect noted. With the discontinuance of full power operation of the cooling Since no towers, it is expected that no further salt deposition will occur.
further deposition is expected to occur, there will be no effect on the health and safety of the public if the aerial monitoring program is discontinued until the resumption of design operation of the cooling towers.
