ULNRC- 2451 Attachment 3 Page 1 of 3 i M FETy EVA_LUATION Thic amendment application requests revisions to various Technical Specificatiens described in Attachment 1. The proposed changes to the Technical Specifications do not involve an unreviewed safety question because operation of the Callaway Plant with this change would not

1) Increase the probability of occurrence or consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously e"aluated in the safety analysis rnport,
2) Create the possibili ty f or an accident or malfunction of a different type than any previously evaluated in the safety analysis report, or
3) Reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any technical specification.

Specifically, for each item listed in Attachment 1: Item Ngz_1 The typographic change of the singular " monitor" to the plu al " monitors" merely corrects a typographical error. The change does not impact the reliability or availability of plant equipment The change does not alter the function or capabilities of existing plant equipment. There is no new type of accident or malfunction being created, and the method and manner of plant operation is unchanged. The chance does not involve plant design changen and does not change any system acceptance criterion. I terrLNo _ 2 The changes described for item 8.a of Table 3.3-4 correctly reflect the values as issued in NPF-30 rather than the incorrect values as issued in NRC letter dated 11/1/84. The changes merely make minor editorial revisions to the text and provide consistency and clarity to the operators which will help avoid operator confusion. The changes do not impact the reliability or availability of plant equipment. The changes do not alter the function or capabilities of existing plant equipment. There is no new type of accident or malfunction being created, and the method and manner of plant operation is unchanged. The changes do not involve plant design changes and do not chance any system acceptance criterion.
