The system is served by two motor-driven pumps and one steam 1

X, turbine-driven pump.:

To ensure that the three auxiliary'feedwater pumps sre capable of' performing'their intended safety function, Callaway Technical SpecificationsJrequire the operability of V

the. pumps to be demonstrated. - In part, Surveillance Requirement 4.7.1.2.1.b 2 ensures that the TDAFP.will-automatically start in the event an/ Auxiliary Feedwater'

This surveillance is performed _once per.18 months'at shutdown.

In addition,.all three pumps'are' tested at least once per 31 days per: Specification'4.7.1.2.1.a..

Evaluation L

The proposed changes to Technical Specifications'4 3.2.'2, 4.7.1~.2.1, and the Bases for Specification 3/4.7.1.2 do not involve an unreviewed safety question because operation of the'Callaway. Plant with the changes'would nots-1.

Increase the probabilityjof occurrence or the-

consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment-important to safety' evaluated previously~in the safety.

analysis report.

The changes proposed by this Technical' Specification?

l amendment do not affect the performance parameters'of the' Auxiliary Feedwater System (AFWS).

The changes proposed involve a decrease in the frequency offpump testing from once per 31 days to once'per 92. days ss-recornmended by NRC Generic Letter 93-05 and reflected'

5 starts upon receipt'of;anl Auxiliary:Feedwater Actuation 1 test':

4 signal.

The Basesifor. Specification 3/4.7.1.2 will be.

modified to clarify the performance. requirements--of'the.

Y Auxiliary Feedwater System.(AFWS).

The proposed Technical Specification changes do not involve-a^

a significant hazards consideration per.101CFR50.92"because,

Loperation of Callaway P17.nt with the. changes would' nots, c

1.

Involve'a signif3 cant. increase in the probability or; consequences of an accident previously evaluated.L The Callaway Final' Safety Analysis Report has.beencreviewed:

and been found to:be unaffected by these proposed

>j changes.

The changes proposed by this. Technical.

Specification amendment do not. affect.theoperformance parameters of the-Auxiliary Feedwater System?(AFWS).

The' changes proposed, involve a decrease in.the~

frequency-of pump; testing from once per.31 days to once per 92 days as. recommended by NRC Generic: Letter 93-05 and reflected in NUREG 1431'(T/S 4'.7.1.2.1.'a).

This change will decrease.the out-of-service time of the AFWS due to. testing.

This change will also decrease the number of component manipulations performed on':the system and will'therefore decrease the. probability of a restoration error rendering theLsystem incapableEof; perfoming its intended function.

t The pumps will be required to meet the same' acceptance criteria and will; continue to be;. monitored: as required by ASME Section XI. lAs stated earlier, the overall effect.is a slight decrease in the CDF for Callaway.

2 These proposed changes will also eliminate an inconsistency among Specifications'~4.7.1.2.1'.b.2 and-4.3.2.2 and: Specification 4.7.1.2.1.a.2 regarding an exception to specification 4.0.4 for. entry into Mode 3-

",~

for the TDAFP.

The methodology and acceptance criteria of~ surveillance testing will not be changed.
