k EXHIBIT A MONTICELLO NUCLEAR GENERATING PIANT DOCKET NO. 50-263 License Amendment Request Dated Aigust 9,1977 Proposed Change to Technical Specti! cations Appendix A, of Provisional Operating Lic ose DPR-22 i
Pursuant to 10CFR50.59, the holders of Provisional Operating License DPR-22 hereby propose the following change to Appendix A *echnical Specifications:
Specification and Bases 3.8/4.8 - Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program PROPOSED CHANGES i
Replace Table 4.8.1 (Page 2 of 4 only), Sample Collection and Analysis, ebuticello Nuclear Generating Plant, Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program with the pro-posed Table 4.8.1 (Page 2 of 4 only) as contained in Exhibit B.
his change eliminates clam sampling from the program.
Incorporate a proposed replacement Figure 4.8.1 and delete Figure 4.8.2 (Page 174).
Incorporate minor identification changes on the following pages:
iv, vii, ix and 168.
i REASON FOR CHANCES i
Since the beginning of the environmental monitoring program, which includes two years of preoperational sampling and six years of operational sampling, extensive searching for clams both upstream and downstream of the plant has met with littic or no success. Fast stream conditions and limited areas conducive to clam pro-duction create the absence of clams in this stretch of the river. We conclude the time spent in clam searching is not productive.
Proposed Figure 4.8.1 identifies both control and indicator sampling locations on the same map.
It provides for easier comprehension of all sampling locations.
l The information shown on Figure 4.8.2 is incorporated in Proposed Figure 4.8.1.
he word " Radiation" added to the program title differentiates this program from the ecological study programs.
SAFETY EVALUATION These changes involve no hazards considerations. The radiation environmental monitor-ing program is adequate to provide necessary supporting evidence for assessing the performance of the plant with respect to keeping population exposures as low as reasonably achievable.
