Dear Mr. Zic:
mann:
'al' MCUTICELLO NUC1. EAR GCiERATING PLANT DOCKET No. 50-263 LICDiSE No. DpR-22 Proposed Technical Specifications on Reporting Requirements and Administrative Controls Your letter dated October 21, 1974 requested, in part, that we submit as soon as practical before December 1, 1974 proposed changes to the Monticello Technical Specifications which would incorporate the reccanendations of Regulatory Guide 1.16. Revieion 2 " Reporting of Operating Information-Appendix A 1echnical Specifications." As you may know, representatives of Northern States power Company attended a regional seminar conducted by AEC Regulatory Operations on November 7, 1974 which presented further information on the intent and interpretations of Regulatory Guide 1.lte, Revision 2.
Preparation of the proposed Technical Specification change has been on a
" hold status" since that meeting pending receipt of clarifying information on certain portions of Regulatory Guide 1.16 to avoid the need to request further changes a few months later. Assuming that this information is availabic this week, and with a high priority processing of the proposed technical specification change through the committee review process required for Operating License amendments, we expect that the amendment would be ready for submittel to the AEC by December 18, 1974. We will exert all reasonable effort to maintain this proposed schedule.
Your October 21, 1974 letter also stated that a review of the Monticello Technical Specifications on Administrative Controls resulted in a determination that it should be revised to be consistent with the format and content of a l
standardiced technical specification on this subject.
Early in 1972 we were t& ised by the AEC that we should subt.it proposed changes to the Administrative l
Controls section of the Monticello Technical Specifications.
NSp prepared a number of draf ts of Administrative Control Technical Specifications based upon l
l 9104290342 741126 PDR ADOCK 05000263 P
pon 120S6 l
a p.
NOR'T..ERN OTATEC POWER CON.r*ANY I&ge 2 November 26, 1974 Prope$ed Technical Specifications on Reporting Requirements and Adminstrative Controls the guidance in ANSI N18.7 and Regulatory Guide 1.33 and as a result of meetings and telephone conversations with the Regulatory Staf f.
On April 3,1973 the AEC issued change No. 6 to the Monticello Operating License which Locorporated new Administrative Controls. Although the wording of our Administrative Controle Technical Specification does not precisely follow the format and content of the standardized technical specification, we believe that it meets the intent of the standardized version.
We also received a letter from the AEC dated November 13, 1974 on our Prairie Island Plant which requested changes to the reporting requirements of the Prairie Island lechnical Specifications; however, the review of our Administra;1ve Controls Technical Specifications in that case apparently determined chcra to be adequate since the letter is silant on this subject.
Exc ep t for minor reporting d.'.fferences, the AdministrativeCon-
.a 1cchnical Spocifications for the two pitnts are essentially identical.
Based on the above infonnation, it is requested that the Regulatory Staff reevaluate the need for revision of the Monticello Administrative controls Technical Specifications.
If this reevaluation concludes that the intent of the standardized technical specification is met but that there is need for revision te the format, we believe that we should he allowed a period of six months to accomplish this "backfitting." It would be necessary for us to submit amendments to change both the Monticello and Prairie Island Administrative controls Technical Specifications to maintain uniformity and would result in a substantial number of revisions to Administrative Control Directives, Administrative Work Instructions, etc.
which are based on the current technical specification requi re: rent s.
In addition to their normal crerating committments, our people are also involved in activities over the next few months related to public hearings for both plants, startup of Prairic Island No. 2 Unit, a refueling outage at Monticello and several technically oriented license amendments.
Your consideration of these influcnces as they relate to the need for the requested technical specification changes will be appreciated.
Yours very truly, M
