SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OcFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION SUPPORTING AMENDMENT NO. 85TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. OPR-24 '

-AND AMENDMENT N0. 89 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-27 WISCONSIN ELECTRIC POWER COMPANY P0 INT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 DOCKET N05. 50-266 AND 50-301 Introduction On January 1,1984, new rules 10 CFR.50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73 became effective

. which changed licensee reporting requirements to the NRC of reportable events.,

These changes became immediately effective and superseded all licensees' previous Technical Specification reporting requirements. Guidance concerning changes to the Technical ' Specifications which might be necessary to achieve -

consistency with the new rule was issued by the staff'in Generic Letter 83-43 dated December 19, 1983. Wisconsin Electric Power Company (licensee) responded to Generic Letter 83-43 with pronosed changes'to the Point Beach Nuclear Pla.nt.-

Unit Nos. I and 2 Technical Specifications by application dated January 27, 1984.

Discussion and Evaluation Generic Letter 83-43 requested licensees to propose changes to the "Administra.

tive Controls" and ' Definitions" sections of their facilities' Technical.

Specifications and provided model technical specifications in Standard Tecknical Specification format te be used as guidance.

We have reviewed the licensee's submittal against the guidance provided in Generic Letter 83-43 and find that the licensee meets that guidance. The term

" reportable occurrences" where previously found in the licensee's technical specifications has been replaced with the term " reportable events".

A new se ; ion on-" Reportable Event Action" has been added referencing the require-ments contained in 10 CFR 50.73.

The'old section on " Reportable Occurrences" has been deleted.
