SAFETY EVALUATION BY-THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION SUPPORTING AMENDMENT NOS. 62 AND 5 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NOS. DPR-67 AND NPF-16 FLORIDA POWER e LIGHT COMPANY, ET. AL.
ST. LUCIE PLANT, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-335 AND 50-389 Backgrcund In a letter dated October 12, 1983, Florida Power and Light Company (FP&L) requested license arandments to modify the Technical Specifications for St. Lucie Plant, Unit Nos. I and 2.
The changes requested involved changes in title, revisions in a statement of function, deletion of a footnote no longer required, and use of a properly qualified individual as both a Senior Reactor Operator and Shift Technical Advisor.
Discussion Figure 6.2-2 for each unit is to be revised to change the titles of on-shift personnel to achieve consistency between Unit 1 and Unit 2.
Specifically, the Shift Supervisor title on Unit 2 is to be changed to agree to the slightly modified Unit I title of Nucleiar Plant Supervisor.
For both units the title i
of Watch Engineer is changed to Assistant Nuclear Plant Supervisor. The staff finds that these changes in title are administrative in nature and are acceptabl'e.
l In TS Section 6.2.4 for Unit 2, the functions of the Shift Technical Advisor is revised to state that the Shift Technical Advisor is to provide on-shift advisory technical support in the areas of thermal hydraulics, reactor en-i l
gineering, and plant analysis with regard to the safe operation of the unit.
l The staff finds this change is clarifying in nature and is acceptable.
The requirement contained in a footnote on Table 6.2-1 of Unit 1 Technical Specifications for specific staffing on Unit 1 in all modes until Unit 2 operating license issuance and commencement of initial fuel loading is deleted.
With the issuance of the operating license (NPF-16) and the initiation of l
l fuel loading, the footnote no longer applies. The deletion of'the footnote l
it administrative in nature and is found ecceptable by the staff.
The licensee requested that a footnote be added to Table 6.2-1 of both units l
to allow for the dual-role use of a properly qualified individual as both a Senior Reactor Operator and a Shift Technical Advisor. The NRC published l
a Draft Commission Policy Statement, 48 FR 33781, on Engineering Expertise 8403060527 840224 PDR ADOCK 05000335 t
i P
PDR L
on Shift, that will, when published in final form, allow the use of a Senior Reactor Operator / Shift Technical Advisor in a dual role. Until published in final form, the staff's position is that the dual role is unacceptable.
Therefore, the staff denies the licensee's request to add the proposed foot-note to Table 6.2-1 of both units.
Environmental Consideration We have determined that the amendments do not authorize a change in effluent i
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 amendments involve an action which is in-significant from the standpoint of environmental impact and, pursuant to 10 CFR 651.5(d)(4), that an environmental impact statement or negative declaration and environmental impact appraisal need not be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendments.
Conclusion We have concluded, based on the considerations discussed 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 Commission's regulations and the issuance of the amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
