^

proposed changes to the Technical Specifications. These changes are described as follows:

1.

The off-site management organization has been revised to add the position of First Executive Vice President and Chief Development i

Officer and the position of First Executive Vice President and Chief Operations Officer. The title of Executive Vice President Procedures j

and Perforriance has been changed to Vice President Quality Assurance and Reliability; and he assumes the dutOs held previously and, in addition, now performs audits and appraisals of the security program.

The title of Senior Vice President Nuclear Generation has been changed 1

to Executive Vice President Nuclear Generation without change of function; and the title of Director of Safety and Fire Protection Procedures and Performance has been changed to Director of Safety and i

Fire Protection.

Title changes have been made throughout Section 6 of Appendix A and in Figure 5.2-2 of Appendix B to reflect the above reorcanization and title changes. The reorganized off-site management organization is shown in revised Figure 6.1-1.

2.

The plant staff organization chart has had a footnote added that assigns responsibility for performance and monitoring of the fire protection program. Additionally, the title of Training Coordinator has been changed to reflect the current organization structure. This is shown in Figure 6.2-1.

I 3.

In Section 6.5.2.8, the audit frequencies for emergency preparedness and safeguards contingency plans (Items e-and f) have been revised to agree with 10 CFR 50.5d(t) and 73.40(d) respectively.

Several additional unrelated changes to the Technical Specifications proposed in the February 25, 1983 letter are being reviewed as a separate matter and will be addressed in a future action.

2.0 Evaluation We have reviewed each of the above iter..s and find them to be acceptable on the following basis. The changes described in Item 1 and 2 above do not delete any functions previously performed by the organizations, and do not appear to decrease the effectiveness of the organizations involved.

In addi'. ion, the proposed changes meet the guidance of Section 13.1 of the Standard Review Plan, NUREG-0800, and Regulatory Guide 1.33. The changes described in Item 3 above make the Technical Specification congruent with the above cited Regulations. The change described in Item 4 is a correction uhich was overlooked in a prior Technical Specification change included with Amendment No. 60 of August 31, 1981, in which this title change was approved.

4.0 Environmental Consideration We have determined that the amendment does not authorize a change in effluent types or total amounts nor an increase in power level and will not result in any significant environmental impact. Having made this determination, we have further concluded that the amendment involves an action which is insignificant from the standpoint of environmental impact and, pursuant to 10 CFR 551.5(d)(4), that an environmental impact statement, or negative declaration and environmental impact appraisal need not be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.

5.

Conclusions We have concluded, based on the considerations 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) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Connission's regulations and the issuance of this amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
