Proposed-Amendment ~of Facility

, Oneratina License No. NPF-62

Dear Sir:

Pursuant,to'10CFR50.90,. Illinois Power Company;(IP)!

,' Thereby,appliescfor,an! amendment of Facility Operating-Licence Non NPF-62 for-Clinton Power Station?(CPS). The proposed amendment-(seetAttachment'2--to,this, letter)

, 'consistsLof proposed < changes to the CPS Technical

! Specifications (TS)'which are requested collectively in.

~

' response to Generic Letter 89-01 (Subject /

Title:

ImplementationLof Programmatic Controls for Radiological m Effluent: Technical Specifications in the Administrative y Controls Section of the1 Technical Specifications and the

. Relocation of~ Procedural DetailsLof RETS'(Radiological' Effluent' Technical Specifications] toithe Offsite' Dose

-Calculation Manual.or to the: Process Control Program)'.

- ~The proposed amendment (Attachment 2)1was prepared-in accordance with-thel guidance provided in Generic Letter.89-011(including-Enclosures 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the Generic Letter).. Accordingly,' the proposed amendment will (1))

incorporate, programmatic controls in the-Administrative controls section of'the Technical Specifications that~

satisfy the requirements of 10CFR20.106,=40CFR Part 190, 10CFR50.36a,'and. Appendix I to 10CFR Part 50, (2) relocate

the existing procedural details or specific requirements in s- '

the' current Technical' Specifications involving radioactive

definition of solidification and existing procedural' details or specific ~ requirements in the current Technical

! Specification'on solid radioactive wastes to the Process Control Program (PCP) , (4) simplify the associated reporting -

requirements, (5), simplify the administrative controls for changes to the ODCM and PCP, (6) add record retention requirements for changes to the ODCM and PCP, and (7) update C,9 the definitions of the ODCM and PCP consistent with-these changes (or ensure that the current definitions are

. acceptable).

Enclosure 1 of Generic Letter 89-01 notes that licensees should contirm in the amendment request that changes for relocating the procedural details of current RETS to either the ODCM or PCP have been prepared in accordance with the proposed changes to the Administrative Controls section of the TS so that they may be implemented '

immediately upon issuance of the proposed amendment. It further notes that a complete and legible copy of the revised ODCM should be forwarded with the amendment request.

Pursuant to these recommendations, IP asserts that the relocation of procedural details or specific requirements from the TS to the ODCM and/or PCP is consistent with the  !

revised Administrative Controls section of the TS as proposed. A copy of the revised ODCM is provided in ,

Attachment 3 to this letter.  !

& IP requests a 90-day grace period (that would make the amendment effective 90 days from issuance) to facilitate the .i transition from implementing Technical-Specification-related requirements to implementing PCP/ODCM-related requirements. y Although the ODCM and PCP have been revised (with the '

appropriate-changes incorporated), IP is currently working to_ develop the-programmatic and administrative changes needed to support implementation of the ODCM and PCP as revised. This work includes training of personnel, revising  !

administrative-type procedures,-reassigning divisions of responsibility, etc., and is being performed in accordance ,

with a preplanned schedule. The schedule is based on-the l~

NRC's issuance of an approved amendment within 6 months after receipt of this application for amendment followed by a a 90-day grace period.

Regarding the changes proposed in Attachment 2 of this l letter, IP has reviewed these changes against the criteria of 10CFR51.22 for environmental considerations. The proposed changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration, or significantly increase the amounts or change the types of effluents that may be released offsite, nor do they significantly increase individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposures. Based on the foregoing, IP concludes that the proposed Operating License changes meet the criteria given in 10CFR51.22(c)(9) for a  !

categorical exclusion from the requirement for an Environmental Impact Statement.
