U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION DUKE POWER COMPANY DOCKET NOS. 50-369 AND 50-370 NOTICE OF ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE AND FINAL DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission (Comission) has issued Amendment No. 27 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-9 and Amendment No. 8 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-17, issued to Duke Power Company (the licensee), which revised the Technical Specifications for operation of the McGuire Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2, (the facilities) located in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.
The amendments were effective October 26, 1983.
The amendments change the Technical Specifications related to the containment lower compartment temperature to allow the temperature limit to be increased from 120*F to 125*F for up to 90 cumulative days a year provided that the lower com-partment temperature had averaged less than 120*F over the previous 365 days.
The application for the amendments complies with the standards and require-ments of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Comission's rules and regulations. The Comission has made appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Commission's rules and regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I,-which are set forth in the license amendments.
Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment and Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination and Opportunity for Hearing in connection-with this action was published in the FEDERAL REGISTER on October 25, 1983 (48 FR 49394). The amendments were-issued before expiration of the 30-day-comment period because-failure to do so would result in plant ' shutdown.

. 7590-01 Under its regulations, the Comission may issue and make an amendment imediately effective, notwithstanding the pendency before it of a request for a hearing from any person, in advance of the holding and completion of any required hearing, where it has determined that no significant hazards consideration is involved.
The Commission has applied the standards of 10 CFR 50.92 and has made a final determination that the amendments involve no significant hazards consideration.
The basis for this determination is contained in the Safety Evaluation related to this action. Because the increase in lower compartment temperature would be
\\i small, less than 5% compared to the allowable temperature of 120 F under the l current Technical Specification, the proposed amendments _do not involve a significant increase in the probability of an accident previously evaluated or a significant reduction in a margin of safety. Because no changes in any I
accident analysis will result from the increase in lower compartment t
{
temperature, the proposed amendments do not involve any increase in the
~
consequences of an accident previously evaluated nor do they create the
[, possibility of a new or, different kind of accidenty Accordingly, as described above, the amendment has been issued and made immediately effective and any hearing will be held after issuance.
The Commission has determined that the issuance of the amendments will not result in any significant environmental impact and that pursuant to 10 CFR 551.5(d)(4) an environmental impact statement or negative declaration and environ-mental impact appraisal need not be prepared in connection with issuance of the amendments.
