.Provided as Enclosure 2 is a supplement to Proposed Change Number (PCN)-359/'

Amendment Application No.102 to Facility Operating License NPF-15 for the San.

Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS), Unit 3.. This supplement supersedes-1 in.its entirety our submittal of Reference 5.

i Editorial corrections are also being made to make tie Unit 3.TSs consistent with'the Unit 2 TSs.

l Document Control Desk change are less restrictive than the administrative P-T limits currently in effect at Unit 3.

SCE will continue to implement the existing Unit 3 administrative P-T limits until the NRC approves this license amendment request.

The proposed change revises existing P-T limit curves (Figures 3.4-2, 3.4-4, and 3.4-5), deletes Figure 3.4-3, and adds new curves (Figures 3.4-6 and 3.4-Figure 3.4-3 is deleted because there are now only two heatu 7).

restrictions, i.e., 50*F/HR with the Reactor Coolar.t System (RCS)p ratecold leg temperature less than or equal to 159 F, or the maximum permitted heatup rate of 60 F/HR with the RCS cold leg temperature greater than 159'F.

Figures 3.4-6 and 3.4-7 account for the difference in the Total Loop Uncertainties (TLUs) for pressure between the shutdown instruments on the Remote Shutdown Panels and the shutdown instruments in the Control Room. The TLUs for temperature i

for both the Remote Shutdown instruments and the Control Room shutdown instruments are equal.

The proposed change also revises the Shutdown Cooling System (SDCS) enable temperature for RCS Low Temperature Overpressure Protection (LTOP) in TSs 3.4.8.3.1, 3.4.8.3.2, and Table 3.4-3, " Low Temperature Overpressure Protection Range." The enable temperature for the SDCS Relief Valve is based on the methodology recommended by NUREG-0800, Branch Technical Position RSB 5-2, Revision 1, "0verpressurization Protection of Pressurized Water Reactors While Operating at Low Temperatures." This license amendment request fulfills the commitment in Reference 2 to revise the existing Unit 3 LTOP enable temperatures.

The proposed P-T limits and LTOP enable temperatures shall be effective until 8 EFPY of plant operation.

l By Reference 2 (PCN-358) and Reference 3 (PCN-354), changes were proposed to other portions of TS Index Page XIX, TSs 4.4.8.1.2, 3.4.8.3.1, and the associated Bases to TS 3/4.4.8.

Because these TSs are also affected by this proposed license amendment (PCN-359), TS pages which incorporate changes from PCNs 358, 354, and this revision to PCN-359 are provided for your information as Enclosure 3.

The proposed changes are identified by their respective PCN numbers in the margin.

By Reference 4, SCE submitted the Units 2 and 3 current values (current as of September 11,1992) and projected values of reference temperatures for pressurized thermal shock (RTns) required by 10 CFR 50.61, " Fracture Toughness Requirements for Protection Against Pressurized Thermal Shock."

l Reference 4 fulfills the 10 CFR 50.61 requirements for San Onofre Unit 3.
