REASON FOR REQUEST:

The revision to the Physical Security Plan is written in a format compatible with the intent of NUREG-0908, " Acceptance Criteria for the Evaluation of Nuclear Power Reactor Security Plans," JJ1y 1982, and provides for more effi-cient security operations, as prescribed by 10 CFR 73.55.

EVALUATION OF REQUEST:

The entire Plan does not degradt. safety nor affect the ability of Operators / )

Operations Personnel to respond to emergencies, in accordance with applicable guidance found in NUREG-0992.

Analysis of Significant Hazards Considerations The changes proposed in Revision 4 to the Crystal River Nuclear Plant, Unit 3, Modified Amended Security Plan all fall within the following examples of amend-ments to the operating license which are cited as "not likely to involve sig-nificant hazards considerations" in the Statements of Consideration to 10 CFR 50.92, published in 48 Federal Register 14870, dated April 6,1983:

"(1) A purely administrative change to Technical Specifications (i.e., licensing planning document): for example, a change to achieve consistency throughout the Technical Specifica-tions (i.e., Plan), correction of an error, or a change in nomenclature.

(ii) A change that constitutes an additional limitation, restric-tion, or control not presently included in the Technical Spec-ifications (i.e., licensing planning document) . . .

(vii) A change tc make a license conform to changes in the regula-tions, where the licensing change results in very minor changes to facility operations clearly in keeping with the regulations."

A categorization of the significant changes listed in the preceding section by the examoles cited above is provided below for ease of review:

Example (i) Example (ii) Example (vii) 1, 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13 3, 5, 6, 7, 12, 14 4, 19, 20, 21, 26, 22, 23, 24, 25, 32, and 33 through 18, 27, and 28 29, 30, and 31 Since all of the changes to the Plan cited are purely administrative changes; changes that constitute additional limitations, restrictions, or controls not presently included in the Plan; or are changes to make the license conform to changes in the regulations where the licensing change results in very minor changes to facility operations clearly in keeping with the regulations, the Plan does not involve a significant hazards censiaeration.

Safety Analysis

1. Will o;:eration of the facility in accordance with this proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No The proposed change affects only the Modified Amended Security Plan and is not related to any accident previously evaluated. Generally, this change concerris administrative alteraticns and makes the licensee con-form to changes in the regulations, where the license change .esults in very minor changes to facility operations clearly in keeping with the regulations. Although some prior commitments have been decreased, the reductions are clearly within all applicable NRC acceptance criteria.

In addition, many of the changes impose additional limitations, restric-tions, or controls not previously submitted. Therefore, this comprehen-sive change, applied in its entirely, results in a more effective security program which does not decrease safeguards effectiveness.

2. Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed amendment create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No The proposed changes to the Plan do not alter any safety-related design bases of the facility or its operation. It, therefore, does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.

3. Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed amendment involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No The proposed changes to the Plan do not affect any margin of safety.

Safety and Significant Hazards Determination -

The Commission has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards ir.10 CFR 50.92 by providing certain examples (see 48 Federal Register 14870) of actions involving no significant hazards considerations which include changes that are purely administrative; constitute an additional limitation, restric-tion, or control not presently included; and make a license conform to changes in the regulations, where the licensing change results in very minor changes to facility operations clearly in keeping with the regulations. Since the proposed changes all fall into these categories, Florida Power Corporation concludes that the application does not involve a significant hazards consideration. Further-more, although Revision 4 of the Plan does reduce some commitments in the exist-ing Plan, the resulting Plan will clearly meet applicable standa-ds and criteria of the NRC for physical protection, and will not decrease safeguards effective-ness.

Based on the analysis presented above, it is concluded that: (1) the proposed change does not constitute a significant hazards consideration as defined by 10 CFR 50.92; (2) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by the proposed change; and (3) this action will not result in a condition which significantly alters the impact of the plant on the environment as described in the NRC Environmental Statement.

Significant Hazards Consideration Determination:

(x) 1 Amendment involver no significant hazards considerations.

( ) Amendment involves significant hazards considerations.

l l

Basis for Proposed No Signi'icant Hazards Consideration Determination 1 The Commission has made a proposed determination that the amendment re-quest involves no significant hazards consideration. Under the Commission's regulations in 10 CFR 50.92, this means that operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evalu-ated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction ,

in a margin of safety.

The Commission has provided guidance concerning the application of these Standards by providing certain examples (48 FR 14870). Three of these examples of guidance are: a purely administrative change to Technical Specifications;

a. change that const toter a additional limitation, restriction, or control not presently included in the Technical Specifications; and a change to make a li-cense conform to changes in the regulations, where the licensing change results in very minor changes to facility operations clearly in keeping with the regu-lations. The proposed changes all fall into one of these categories. Admini-strative changes do not lend themselves to a significant hazards consideration based on the proposed amendment because the changes result in very minor changes to facility operations. Other changes are proposed to make the license conform to changes in the regulations since the initial submittal and approval of the Plan, and add requirements to ensure compliance with regulations. Still other 2-2

changes impose additional limitations, restrictions, or controls not previously submitted that improve safeguards effectiveness of the facility. Although some prior commitments have decreased in the proposed amendment, these reductions have been instituted to conform to more recent Commission guidelines and are clearly within all applicable Commission acceptance criteria.

Furthermore, this comprehensive change, applied in its entirety, results in a more effective security program which does not decrease safeguards effec-tiveness. The proposed changes do not affect reactor operations or accident analyses and have no radiological consequer.ces. Therefore, operation in accor-dance with the proposed amendment clearly involves no significant hazards con-sideration because the changes will not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any acci-dent previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
