SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NOS.140 AhD 123 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NOS. NPF-4 AND NPF-7 VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY OLD DOMINION ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE NORTH ANNA POWER STATION. UNITS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-338 AND 50-339 INTRODUCTION By letter dated June 26, 1990, the Virginia Electric and Power Company (the
. licensee) proposed changes to the Technical Specifications (TS) and Facility Operating Licenses NPF-4 and NPF-7 for the North Anna Power Station, Units No.'1 and.No. 2 (NA-1&2), respectively.
The proposed changes add the NRC standard
. fire protection license condition to each-operating license, and relocate fire protection requirements from the TS to the NA-182 ydated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR).
The changes have been developed in accordance with the~ guidance contained in NRC Generic Letters 86-10 and 88-12.
l DISCUSSION'-
l; T
Generic Letter 80-10 requested that licensees incorporate fire. protection
.(1) grams into their UFSARs, and upon completion apply for an amendment to:
pro replas current licensin standard condition, and (2) g conditions regarding fire. protection with a new remove unnecessary fire protection TS._ Generic L
Letter 88-12 provided additional guidance for the preparation of a license amendment request-to implement Generic Letter 86-10.
L The proposed changes include the following actions:.(1) add.theNRCstandard
-fire protection ~1icense condition to each unit's operating license (License'-
Condition 2.D.(3)t for NA-1 and 2.C.(23) for NA-2), (2) remove fire protection requirements from the TS and relocai.: them to the NA-182.UFSAR, and (3) remove
'theLTS Bases sections relating to fire protection.
UFSAR_ Section 16.2 was created to contain the fire protection requirements currently contained in the TS.
Information contained in the TS Bases is now included'in UFSAR Section 9.5.1.
No changes have been made to the technical content by this administrative relocation as specified by the requirements of Generic Letter 88-12.
Compliance with the fire protection requirements will be assured by maintaining sthese requirements in' appropriate plant procedures and the UFSAR. These changes offer additional flexibility in updating and maintaining the fire protection program.
The proposed changes relocate the requirements from the TS to the NA-182 UFSAR. Since no technical changes are involved, the relocation of the requirements is administrative in nature.

EVALVATION The proposed TS changes are in accordance with and implement NRC Generic Letters 86-10 and 88-12.
The approved NA-1&2 fire protection program require-ments remain an-integral part of NA-182 operations. Relocation of the fire protection requirements into the UFSAR and plant procedures does not negate or diminish any portion of the NA-182 fire protection program. Therefore, based on the above, we find the proposed changes to be acceptable.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION i
These amendments involve a change to a requirement with respect to installation or use of 4 facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20 end changes surveillance requirements. We have determined that the amendments involve no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there ic no significant increase in' individual or cumulative occupational l
radiation exposure. The Comission has previously issued a proposed finding that these amendments involve no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public coment an such finding. Accordingly, these amendments meet the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).
These ame?dments also involve changes in recordkeeping, reporting, or administra-tive proceo3res or requirements. Accordingly, with respect to these items, tha amendments m0et the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth L
in10CFR51.22(c)(10).
Pursuantto10CFR51.22(b),noenvironmentalimpact i
l statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of these amendments.
y CONCLUSION We have concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, and (2) s'uch activities will be conducted in compliance with the Comission's regulations, and the issuance of the amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to n
the health and safety of the public.
