/x REQUEST FOR LICENSE AMENDMENTS - ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES

SUMMARY

In accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Part 50.90 and Part 2.101, Carolina Power & Light Company (CP&L) hereby requests revisions to the Technical Specifications for its Brunswick Steam Electric Plant (BSEP) Unit Nos. 1 and 2. These changes are all administrative in nature and are briefly described below.

Reactcr Vessel Level Instrumentation Zero P_o_ints - Unit No. 1 The changes to technical specifications for this modification are to establish new vessel Icvel setpoints to be consistent with a new common instrument zero level. The establishment of common zero level for all reactor vessel level instrumentation is called for as TMI Action Item II.K.3.27 in NUREG-0737. No change in actual water level for any function is involved in this change and it is therefore con-sidered to be a purely administrative change to the unit Technical Specifications.

This modification is being made during the current BSEP-1 outage. Revised Technical Specifications are needed prior to "tartup which is currently scheduled for June 22, 1981.

This change has been completed on BSEP-2. Refer to CP&L's March 11, 1981 submittal and to Amendment No. 56 (dated March 20, 1981) to License No. DPR-62.

Mr. Ippolito June 11, 1981 Inclusion of Low Level #1 Instrument - Both Units The Low Level #1 instrument (B21--N042--) has not previously been included in the BSEP Standard Technical Specifications in the in-strumentation tables for the Automatic Depressurization System (ADS).

This administrative oversight has been corrected in the attached revised Technical Specification pages for both Brunswick units.

Digital to Analog'(D/A) Instrumentation Modification - Unit No. 1 On November 19, 1979, CP&L filed a request for Technical Specification changes to replace certain digital instrumentation with analog loops. In response, NRC issued a Safety Evaluation Report (SER) supporting Amendment Nos. 26 and 50 on March 14, 1980. The SER stated that the proposed plant modifications were technically acceptabic and that CP&L'would periodically submit administrative Technical Specification changes to revise instrument designations for those systems which had the D/A modification completed.

The remainder of the attached revised Technical Specification pages reficct instrument number designation changes for analog instru-l ments which will be installed before the end of the present outage.

I Plant procedures are being . revised for the new instrumentation, but surveillance intervals and other requirements will remain in accord-ance with the current Technical Specifications until the requested changes are issued by NRC.

' CONCLUSION j The revised Technical Specification pages reflecting the changes

! described above are attached, and the changes are indicated by vertical lines in the right-hand margins. These changes are administrative in l nature and thus constitute one Class I amendment and one Class II amendment in accordance with 10CFR170.22. Accordingly, our check for $1600 is i enclosed.

_3 J 11, 1981 Mr. Ippolito As discussed above, vessel level' zero point changes are .needed by the BSEP-1 startup date which is June 22, 1981. We will keep you informed by telephone if the schedule changes. Please call us if you have any questions concerning this information.

Yours very truly, t E. E. Utley k ,
