l SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION
\\
l RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE DPR-77 TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY i
Introduction On December 30, 1980, TVA proposed celeting radiation n'onitors from the operating license since these monitors are not required under NUREG-0737.
On April 22, 1981,TVA agreed to install them prior to operations following the first refueling.
Discussion The NRC' staff agrees that individual radiation monitors to isolate fluid lines is not a requirement. Since TVA's only objective pertains to the installation date of prior to May 1981, it was agreed that installation and operation prior to the first refueling is acceptable.
Environmental Consideration We have detemined that the amendment does not authorize a change in effluent types or total amounts nor an increase in. power level and will not result in any significant environmental impact. Having made this determination, we have further concluded that the amendment involves an action which is insigni-ficant from the standpoint of environmental impact and, pursuant to 10 CFR f51.5 (d)(4), that an environmental impact statement or negative declaration and environmental impact appraisal need not be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.
Conclusion We have concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that:
(1) because the amendment does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of accidents previously considered and does not involve a significant decrease in a safety margin, the amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration, (2) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the. proposed manner, and (3) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Comission's regulations and the issuance of this
)
i amendment will not be inimical to the comon defense and security or to the j
health and safety of the public.
