ENCLOSURE 1 DESCRIPTION AND SAFETY ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED CHANGE NPF-10/15-455
DESCRIPTION AND SAFETY ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED CHANGE NPF-10/15-455 This is a request to delete License Conditions 2.C(26) and 2.C(27),
" Integrated Implementation Schedule," for San Onofre Units 2 and 3, respectively.

1.0 DESCRIPTION
OF CHANGES:
This amendment request is to delete License Conditions 2.C(26) and 2.C(27), " Integrated Implementation Schedule," for the San Onofre These Nuclear Generating license conditions Station require (SONGS),
Southern Units 2 California and 3,Edison)
Edison resp (ectively.
to implement and maintain a plan for scheduling all capital modifications based on an approved NRC Integrated Implementation Schedule (IIS)
Program Plan.
2.0 BACKGROUND
On August 28, 1986, Edison submitted PCN-218 (Reference 1) to the NRC. ,
It requested a new license condition relating to an Integrated Living Schedule (ILS) for Backfits which was consistent with the recommendations of Generic Letter 83-20, " Integrated Scheduling for Implementation of Plant Modifications" (Reference 2). This PCN was subsequently modified by letters dated November 21, 1986 (Reference 3) and February 1, 1988 (Reference 4) to be consistent with the NRC approved Plan and license condition for the SONGS 1 unit. Additionally, the Plan's name was changed to Integrated Implementation Schedule.
On May 15, 1989, License Amendment Nos. 72 and 60 established an Integrated Implementation Schedule Program via License Conditions 2.C(26) and 2.C(27) (Reference 5) for SONGS 2 and 3, respectively. The goal of this program is the implementation of capital modifications in a stable, controlled manner. Projects with the greatest potential of enhancing the safe operation of the units are given the highest priority. The license conditions require Edison to update its schedules of capital modifications on a semi-annual basis.
.: t 9
l 3.0 DISCUSSION:
The IIS methodology (Reference 6), which was approved by the NRC, utilizes the Westinghouse Analytical Ranking Process (WARP) to determine the relative potential safety significance of each regulatory committed modification. The methodology requires that after the projects are ranked, they be evaluated using normal scheduling methods to determine their implementation schedules. The highest ranked projects are evaluated first and scheduled for the earliest outage in which implementation constraints of a normal refueling outage would not be exceeded. The schedules of each unit are then separated into the ,
following three lists as described below: 1 Schedule A All items which have implementation dates required by NRC regulations, orders or license conditions.
l l Schedule B l
Regulatory items (of either generic or plant specific nature) ,
identified by the NRC which have implementation dates committed to i by Edison and which would result in either, (a) plant I modifications, (b) procedure revisions, or (c) changes in facility staffing requirements; or items perceived by Edison as prospective NRC requirements; or major tasks resulting from mandates of agencies other than the NRC. Also included are evaluations for major initiated issues not required by regulation, license conditions or orders.
Schedule C Edison initiated plant betterment projects.
The program reflects limited outage time, financial resources, and manpower resources, while at the same time implements those modifications deemed necessary for enhanced plant safety. It provides for integration of all future identified work into one comprehensive schedule and has built-in mechanisms for changes to the schedule when new modifications are identified or when key program milestones cannot be achieved due to considerations beyond the control of Edison.
The IIS program is based on a priority determination to assist in l maximizing the benefit derived from regulatory required capital i projects. Since it is not always possible or beneficial to try to l
implement a large number of capital projects in a single outage, the program provides a mechanism for focusing attention on those projects of highest priority.
Schedule A dates may be modified only with prior NRC approval in accordance with existing NRC procedures. Changes in Schedule B dates require written notification to the NRC. Schedule C dates are provided
for information to allow the NRC to gain perspective on the current backfit load and may be changed at Edison's discretion.
The IIS program requires that Edison monitor the progress of the work
- undertaken, manage its activities to maintain the schedule, and act promptly to take necessary actions when a schedule change is needed.
Edison is required to update Schedules A, B, and C semi-annually and submit the revised schedules to the NRC. In addition to updating schedules, Edison is required to:
] o Summarize progress in implementing NRC requirements concerning plant modifications.
o Identify changes since the last report.
o Summarize the reasons for schedule changes associated with Schedules A and B.
o Indicate the expected percentage allocation of resources on Regulatory and Betterment projects for the next refueling / modification outage.
The First Edition of the IIS was sent to the NRC on November 15, 1989.
As required, it provided the Schedule A, B, and C items for the Cycle 6 Refueling Outage for SONGS 2 and Cycles 5 and 6 for SONGS 3. Subsequent editions of the IIS (through the 12th Edition) have provided the required schedules through Cycles 9 for SONGS 2 and 3.
Regulatory project allocations for refueling outages have been steadily decreasing and are currently under 40% of resources. Regulatory projects which have been added to schedules since the initial IIS letter have not affected the priority rankings of projects. WARP has only been used once since inception of the IIS Plan. Normal Edison scheduling methods have been used for these new projects. Their implementation schedules were established in separate correspondence, other than the IIS letter. The bulk of the been Schedule C (betterment) projects projects which found onhad have recent theirIIS letters have worth determined by Edison and are under its control for scheduling purposes.
Examination of SONGS 2 and 3 operating history since inception of the license conditions further illustrates these points. Higher burnups, shorter refueling outages, fewer forced outages, and higher gross and net capacity factors are some of the reasons that fewer new Schedule A and B projects have been included in subsequent refueling outages. Most of the work that has been done during these outages has been restricted to required refueling and maintenance and that which Edison has determined to be betterment (Schedule C).
Consequently, the requirements of the license conditions are redundant to other mechanisms which are in place to respond, track, and implement regulatory projects. Internal mechanisms for responding to NRC Rules and Orders, Notices of Violation, Generic Letters, Licensee Event Reports, etc., are more than adequate to ensure proper control over the
.l r scheduling and implementation of new regulatory required projects ,
generated from these documents. These internal mechanisms more than meet the intent of implementing capital modifications at SONGS 2 and 3 in a stable and controlled manner. Therefore, at this time, the IIS Program is unnecessary.
Retention of the license conditions is an unnecessary burden. Cost savings realized from their deletion are estimated to result in a total present worth savings in excess of $100,000 for the two units over the lifetime of the plant. This savings is based on a $5,000 cost per semi-annual letter for the remaining seventeen years of the licenses for SONGS 2 and 3. Reference 8 states that the NRC does not require licensees to incorporate integrated scheduling into operating licenses as a license condition and that those currently implementing an integrated schedule may withdraw from the program upon notifying the NRC. Additionally, the voluntary nature and intent of the license conditions as detailed in References 2, 7, and Section VII of the license conditions, would allow Edison to reinstate the IIS Plan in the future if it became prudent to do so. Therefore, this PCN requests deletion of the license conditions.
4.0 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES TO PCN-299:
PCN-299 implements the Technical Specification Improvement Project which incorporates the recommendations of NUREG-1432, " Standard Technical Specifications Combustion Engineering Plants." PCN-299 was submitted to the NRC for review on December 30, 1993. This proposed change does not affect that submittal.
5.0 SAFETY ANALYSIS:
The proposed change described above shall be deemed to involve a significant hazards consideration if there is any positive finding in any one of the following areas.
- 1. Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of any accident previously evaluated?
Response: No The proposed change deletes an administrative means of tracking and scheduling NRC required plant modifications and license commitments. It does not affect the plant configuration nor NRC mandated schedules for implementation of modifications. Because the deletion of the license condition does not affect the plant configuration, no accident analyses are affected; therefore, the proposed change does not increase the probability or consequences of any previously evaluated accident.
- 2. Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated?
Response: No The proposed change will not alter the configuration of the plant or its operation; therefore, the proposed change does not create a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated. ;
- 3. Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed change involve a significant reduction in margin to safety?
Response: No The proposed change is administrative and does not affect any accident analyses or involve any modification to the plant configuration; therefore, the proposed change does not involve a reduction in a margin of safety.
6.0 SAFETY AND SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS DETERMINATION:
Based on the above Safety Analysis, it is concluded that: (1) the proposed change does not constitute a significant hazards consideration as defined by 10 CFR 50.92; and (2) there is reasonable assurance that I the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by the proposed change. Moreover, because this action does not involve a significant hazards consideration, it will also not result in a condition which significantly alters the impact of the station on the environment as described in the NRC Final Environmental Statement.

SUMMARY
OF PRIORITY. DETERMINATION The Integrated Implementation Schedule is based on a priority determination to assist in maximizing the benefit derived from modifications. Since it is not alw'ays possible or beneficial to try to implement a large number of modifications in a single outage, the integrated schedule provides a mechanism for focusing attention on.those projects of highest priority.
Regulatory related projects will be ranked using the Westinghouse Analytical Ranking Process. This process was approved for San Onofre Unit 1 by the NRC in a letter from D. G. Eisenhut, to X. P. Baskin, SCE, dated November 16, 1983. SCE will use the same methodology for SONGS 2 and 3. A description i
of the Westinghouse process was submitted to the NRC by letter dated September 2,1983 from Xenneth P. Baskin to H. R. Denton.
JULl71989

. l :
Betterment projects do not always have a major direct safety impact and vary in their effect on operation, maintenance, ALARA, reliability, . .
availability, etc. These projects also var requiring a small expenditure of resources.,y to in magnitude those requiring from those substantial resources and outage time. In many instances, the implementation of a betterment project may be necessary on an expedited schedule due to.a anticipated negative impact on plant operation. Due to these and other factors, the betterment projects have their priority and schedule determined by SCE's Plant Modification Review Connittee. The Committee is incorporated into the. review cycle for approval of plant modifications by San Onofre Procedure 50123-XIX-3.D. This committee consists of SCE representatives from areas of plant operations and management. In this way, special consideration is given to particular attributes of a betterment project that may make it imperative to implement on an expedited schedule.
III. SCHEDULING Once the projects are ranked they will be evaluated using normal scheduling methocs to determine how long they will take to implement.
The projects ranked highest will first be evaluated to determine whether they can be implemented during the next scheduled refueling outage.
Projects will continue to be selected from the top of the ranked lists and schedulev for the earliest outage in which implementation constraints of a normal refueling outage have not been exceeded. These schedules will then be separated into three lists as described below:
Schedule.A i
All items which have implementation dates required by NRC regulations, orders or license conditions.
1 Schedule B Regulatory items (of either generic or plant specific nature) identified by the NRC which have implementation dates committed to by)SCE and which (b procedure wouldor.(c) revisions, resultchanges in either in (a)facility plint modifications, staffing requirements; or items perceived by SCE as prospective NRC requirements; or major tasks resulting from mandates of agencies other than the NRC. Also included are evaluations for major initiated issues not required by regulation, license conditions or orders.
Schedule C SCE initiated plant betterment projects.

METENENT to. 72
1 Schedule A dates inay be modified only with prior NRC approval in accordance with existing NRC procedures. Changes in Schedule B dates require written notification to the NRC as described in Section Y below. I Schedule C dates are provided for information to allow the NRC to gain i perspective on the scope of overall modifications and may be changed at. <
SCE's discretion. Schedules A, B and C together provide the basis for assessing the overall effect of changes to schedules and serve as a departure point for discussiun between the NRC and SCE regarding such changes, as discussed below.
IV. SCHEDULEMODIFICATIO_NS i
1 An important aspect of SCE's planning effort is the recognition that the I schedule will need to be modified at times to reflect changes in regulatory requirements, to accommodate those activities that SCE finds necessary to improve plant efficiency and reliability, and to take into account delays resulting from events beyond SCE's control. It is important that the procedure used by SCE for changing the schedules be documented. */ In addition, the NRC must play a role in the oversight of the scheduling process and must, in fact, judge the acceptability of proposed date changes in Schedule A. Accordingly, it is important that the NRC's role, and the interaction between the NRC and SCE be clearly defined, as discussed below.
Y. SOUTHERN. CALIFORNIA EDISON. COMPANY. RESP 0HSIBILITIES The Integrated Implementation Schedule requires that SCE monitor the progress of the work undertaken, manage its activities to maintain the schedule, and act promptly to take necessary actions when a schedule change is needed.
A. periodic. Updating Southern California Edison will update Schedules A, B and C semi-annually and submit the revi' sed schedules to the NRC beginning six months following NRC approval of the Plan. 'In addition to updating the schedules, SCE will:
Sumarize progress in implementing NRC requirements concerning plant modifications.
Identify changes since the last report.
Sumarize the reasons for schedule changes associated with Schedules A and B.
- /
~ Senedules A, B and C will contain sufficient detail to identify those plant capital modifications with completion dates keyed to fuel cycle outages. The schedules may.also contain specific dates (either calendar '
date or keyed to some other milestone) for major evaluations.
JULl71939 n e c e4r wo. 22
Indicate the expected percentage allocation of resources on Regulatory and Betterment projects for the next refueling /
modification outage.
B. Chances to Schedules Changes to the schedules may arise from a variety of reasons, such as new work activities; modifications to the scope of scheduled work; problems in delivery, procurement, etc.; changes in NRC rules and regulations; or other NRC or SCE actions.
Where it is necessary to add a new work item or to change the schedule for an item, the following general guidance will be utilized to the extent appropriate:
Determine the priority of the project, or changed priority, using the Westinghouse Analytical Ranking Process.
Schedule the new or changed item to avoid rescheduling other items already well underway, if it can be reasonably achieved.
Alter Schedule B and C items before Schedule A items.
Select a schedule for the new or changed item which will help maintain an optimum integrated program of work.
If a new Schedule A item is added, regardless of the results of the above ranking / scheduling process, the implementation schedule of the new item shall comply with applicable NRC regulations, orders, or license conditions unless a different schedule has been formally established in accordance with appropriate Coavnission procedures.
As noted above, no changes will be made to Schedule A without prior NRC approval. Should a change become necessary, it will only be proposed after SCE has determined that rescheduling of lower priority work either will not significantly assist in maintaining Schedule A without change, or that the safety, cost or schedule penalties from rescheduling lower priority work significantly outweigh the change in a Schedule A completion date.
SCE will inform the NRC Project Manager when serious consideration is given to requesting a change in Schedule A. When SCE determines that a change in Schedule A is necessary, it will submit a written request for NRC approval in accordance with applicable procedures.
SCE will notify NRC in writing at least 30 days before adopting a planned delay for an item in Schedule B. Such notification will also include the reasons for the delay and describe any compensatory actions
- indicated. The revised date proposed by SCE will go into effect AMEMMNT NO. 72 3
JULl71939
unless NRC, in writing, requests further explanation or discussion concerning such change. If NRC makes such a request, it will be made within 15 days of receipt of SCE'S written notification. In this event, discussions will be initiated to promptly develop a schedule date which is mutually acceptable to SCE and the NRC i Project Manager while considering overall program impact. The '
written notification by NRC will serve to extend the schedule date for the period of time requirec for such discussions. If a new date is established in these discussions such date will supersede the date set forth in Schedule B. The new date will be incorporated in a revised Schedule B in the next semi-annual schedule update submitted to NRC. If a' new date cannot be established in these discussions, SCE changes in scheduled dates will be effective unless subsequently modified by NRC Order.
Work items in Schedule C may be rescheduled or work items may be i acded to Schedule C by SCE without NRC notification. SCE will report changes to Schedule C items in its semi-annual update to be l provided in accordance with Section V.A above. This schedule is provided for information purposes only and is intended to provide l the NRC 4 better understanding of the unit's overall modifications program.
VI. N2C REVIEW As pointed out in Section V.B above, changes to the schedules are inevitable, Actions required by the NRC are discussed below:
A. Southern California. Edison. Originated. Changes
- 1. Upon receipt from SCE of a request for modification of Schedule A, NRC will act promptly (consistent with resource availability and priority of other work) to act on the request in accordance with applicable procedures. l
- 2. If the request for a modification of Schedule A is denied, the '
NRC shall promptly inform SCE and provide 'the reasons for denial.
- 3. NRC consideration of SCE changes in non-Schedule A items is covered by V.B above.
B. HRC Originated. Changes (Schedule. A)
It is recognized that formal NRC regulatory actions ma (1) impose a new regulatory requirement with a fixed date or (2) y: establish a firm date for a previously identified regulatory requirement. In -
taking any such action, the NRC, to the extent consistent with this overall regulatory responsibilities and, unless public health, ANNUHrf NO. 72 JULl71939
4 J
- . I l . 6-safety, or interest require otherwise, will take into account the
- impact of such action on SCE's ability to cceplete effectively the ,
! items on Schedules A, B and C and, in consultation with SCE, will ;
try to minimize such impact. Although.'any formal regulatory action taken by the NRC will be effective in accordance with its terms l without inclusion in Schedule A, the NRC.and SCE. recognize the ;
desirability of incorporating such action into Schedule A, particularly in order to incorporate at the same tire any other appropriate changes in the total integrated schedule program.
Accordingly, once such formal regulatory action is taken (or earlier, if practicable), the NRC will provide SCE a reasonable !
opportunity to propose overall changes in the total integrated l schedule program which would most effectively accomodate such require-ments. Any resulting changes in items in Schedule A will be submitted ,
- to the NRC for review in accordance with established procedures, and, l if approved by the Comission, will thereupon be reflected in a revised i
, Schedule A submitted by SCE. SCE will inform the NRC of any resulting J changes in Schedule B in accordance with Section V above.
C. New NRC Issues.(Schedule.B)
The NRC ray, from time to time, identify new regulatory issues which may result in (a) plant inodifications, (b) procedure revision or development, or (c) changes in facility staffing requirements.
For issues on which the NRC requests scheduling information, these issues may be included in Schedule B in accordance with the date comitment developed in discussion between SCE and the NRC staff.
As for the case of HRC originated changes to Schedule A items, the NRC will provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to propose overall changes in the total integrated schedule program which would most ,
effectively accornrnodate such issues. Any resulting changes in I integrated program schedules will thereupon be reflected in a l revised Schedule B submitted by SCE. '
VII. M00!FICATIONS.TO.THE plan The licensees and the NRC recognize that the Plan itself may require future modifications. Accordingly, SCE will draft' proposed modifications and submit a license amendment application for approval of the proposed changes. The changes, if approved, will be made effective upon amendment issuance by the NRC.

8etterment projects do not always have a major direct safety impact and vary in their effect on operation, maintenance, ALARA, reliability, availability, etc. These projects also vary in magnitude from those requiring a small expenditure of resources to those. requiring substantial resources and outage time. In many instances, the implementatica of a betterment project may be necessary on an expedited schedule due to a anticipated negative impact on plant operation. Due to these and other factors, the betterment projects have their priority and schedule determined by SCE's Plant Modification Review Connittee. The Committee is incorporated into the review cycle for approval of plant modifications by San Onofre Procedure 50123-XIX-3.0. This cocnittee consists of SCE representatives from areas of plant operations and management. In this way, special consiceration is given to particular attributes of a betterment project that may make it imperative to implement on an expedited schedule.
III. SCHEDULING Once the projects sre ranked they will be evaluated using normal scheduling nethods to determine how long they will take to implement. .
The projects ranked highest will first be evaluated to determine whether they can be implemented during the next scheduled refueling outage. .
projects will continue to be selected from the top of the ranked lists and scheculed for the earliest outage in which implementation constraints
~
of a normal refueling outage have not been exceeded. These schedules will then be separated into three lists as described belo'w:
Schedule A .
1 All items which have implementation dates required by HRC regulations, ,
orders or license conditions. ,
1 Schedule 8 Regulatory items (of either generic or plant specific nature) identified by the NRC which have implementation dates committed to by SCE and which would result in either (4) plant modifications, (b) procedure revisions, or (c) changes in facility staffing requirements; or items perceived by SCE as, prospective'NRC requirements; or major tasks resulting from mandates of agencies other than the NRC. Also included are evaluations for najor initiated issues not required by regulation, license conditions or orders.

notification to the NRC as described in Section V below. -
! Schedule C dates are provided for 'information to allow the NRC to gain perspective on the scope of overall modifications and may be changed at 1
SCE's discretion. Schedules A, B and C together provide the basis for j
assessing the overall effect of changes to schedules and serve as a :
departure point for discussion between the NRC and SCE regarding such j changes, as discussed below.
IV. SCHEDULE MODIFICATIONS 1 ,
i An important aspect of SCE's planning effort is the recognition that the schedule will need to be modified at times to reflect changes in regulatory requirements, to accosciodate those' activities that SCE finds .
necessary to improve plant efficiency and reliability, and to take into account delays resulting from events beyond SCE's control. It'is i important that the procedure used by SCE for changing the schedules be documented. */ In addition the NRC must play a role in the oversight of the scheduling process an,d must, in fact, Judge the acceptability of proposed date changes in Schedule A. Accordingly, it is important that' the NRC's defined, asrole, and the discussed interaction between the NRC and SCE be clearly below.
Y. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY Resp 0NSIBILITIES The' Integrated Implementation Schedule requires that SCE monitor the progress of the work undertaken, manage its activities to maintain the schedule, and act promptly to take necessary actions when a schedule -
change is needed.
A. periodic Updating Southern California Edison will update Schedules A, B and C semi-annually and submit the'revtsed schedules to the NRC beginning six months following NRC approval of the Plan. In addition to updating the schedules, SCE will:
Summarize plant progress in implementing NRC requirements concerning' modifications. ~
i Identify changes since the last report.
- Sussnarize the reasons for schedule changes . associated with
' Schedules A and B.
'/ schedules A, B and C will contain sufficient detail to identify those plant capital modifications with completion dates keyed to fuel cycle outages.

B. Changes t'o Schedules l Changes to the schedules may arise from a variety of reasons, such l as new work activities; modifications to the scope of scheduled work; problems in delivery, procurement, etc.; changes In NRC rules ;
and regulations; or other NRC or SCE actions.
, Where it is necessary to add a new work ites or to change the
. schedule for an item, the following general guidance will be utilized to the extent appropriate:
Detamine the priority of the project, or changed priority, using the Westinghouse Analytical Ranking Process.
Schedule the new or changed item to avoid rescheduling other
- items already well underway, if it can be reasonably achieved.
Alter Schedule B and C items before Schedule A items.
Select a schedule for the new or changed item which will help l maintain an optimum integrated program of work.
If a new Schedule A item is added, regardless of the results of the above ranking / scheduling process, the implementation schedule of the i
new item shall comply with applicable NRC regulations, oroers, or license conditions unless a different schedule has been formally established in accordance with appropriate Consission procedures.
I As noted above, no changes will be made to Schedule A without prior i NRC approval. Should a change become necessary, it will only be
. proposed after SCE has determined that rescheduling of lower 1 priority work either will not significantly assist in maintaining Schedule A without change, or that the safety, cost or schedule 1 penalties from rescheduling lower priority work significantly I outweigh the change in a Schedule A ccmpletion date. - I SCE will inform the NRC Project Manager when serious consideration l 1s given to requesting a change in Schedule A. When SCE detemines that a change in Schedule A is necessary, it will submit a written request for NRC approval in accordance with applicable procedures. J SCE will notify NRC in writing at least 30 days before adopting a planned delay for an itee in Schedule B. Such notification will also 1 include the reasons for the delay and describe any compensatory actions
, indicated. The revised date proposed by SCE will go into effect

made within 15 days of receipt of SCE'S written notification. In !
this event, discussions will be initiated to promptly develop a i

4 As pointed out in.Section V.B above, changes to the schedules are !
inevitable., Actions required by the NRC are oiscussed below:
1 A. Southern California Edison Originated Changes
- 1. Upon receipt from SCE of a request for modification of Schedule A. NRC will act promptly (consistent with resource availability ano priority of other work) to act on the request in accordance j with applicable procedures.
1
- 2. If the request for a modification 'of Schedule A is denied, the NRC shall promptly inform SCE and provide the reasons for dental.
2
- 8. MRC Originated Changes -(Schedule A)
It is recognized that formal NRC regulatory actions may: (1) impose a new regulatory requirement with a fixed date or (2) establish a fira date for a previously identic ed regulatory requirement. In taking any such action, the NRC, to the wxtent consistent with this l overall regulatory responsibilities and, unless public health, ,

l safety, or interest require otherwise, will take into account the !
impact of such action on SCE's ability to complete effectively the ,
items on Schedules A, B and C and, in consultation with SCE, will l i try to minimize such impact. Although ary formal regulatory action taken by the NRC will be effective in accordance with its terms without inclusion in Schedule A, the NRC and SCE recognize the J desirability of incorporating such action into Schedule A, '
4 particularly in order to incorporate at the same time any other appropriate changes in the total integrated schedule program. . 4 Accordingly, unce such formal regulatory action is taken (or I earlier, if practicable), the NRC will provide SCE a reasonable !
opportunity to propose overall changes in the total integrated schedule program which would most effectively acconnodate such require-ments. Any resulting changes in items in Schedule A will be submitted !
to the NRC for review in accordance with established procedures, and, l if approved by the Comission, will thereupon be reflected in a revised l Schedule A submitted by SCE. SCE will inform the NRC of any resulting i changes in Schedule B in accordance with Section Y above. l C. New NRC Issues (Schedule B)
The NRC may, from time to time, identify new regulatory issues whic'h may result in (a) plant modifications, (b) procedure revision or development, or (c) changes in facility staffing requirements.
For issues on which the NRC requests scheduling information, these l issues may be included in Schedule B in accordance with the date comitment develuped in discussion between SCE and the NRC staff.
As for the case of HRC originated changes to Schedule A items, the NRC will provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to propose overall changes in the total integrated schedule program which would most effectively accennodate such issues. Any resulting changes in integrated program schedules will thereupon be reflected in a revised Schedule B submitted by SCE.
VII. MODIFICATIONS TO THE PLAN l The licensees and the NRC recognize that the Plan itself may require future modifications. Accordingly, SCE will draf t proposed modifications and submit a license amendment application for approval of the proposed changes. The changes, if approved, will be made effective upon amendment l issuance by the NRC.

VI. NRC REVIEW As pointed out in Section V.B a ve, cha es to the schedules are inevitable, Actions required y the NRC e discussed below:
A. Southern California.Ed on. Originated.C oges
- 1. Upon receipt fr m SCE of a request fo modification of Schedule A, NRC will a promptly (consistent w h resource availability and priority of other work) to act on th request in accordance with appli ble procedures.
- 2. If the r quest for a modification of Schedule is denied, the ]
NRC sh 1 promptly inform SCE and provide 'the asons for denia .
- 3. NR consideration of SCE changes in non-Schedule A tems is c ered by V.B above.
B. NRC riqinated. Changes (Schedule. A)
I is recognized that formal NRC regulatory actions ma (1) impose new regulatory requirement with a fixed date or (2) y: establish a irm date for a previously identified regulatory requirement. In taking any such action, the NRC, to the extent consistent with this overall regulatory responsibilities and, unless public health, AMEIDDrr NO. 72 JULl?1939
-.m
s ety, or interest require otherwise, will take into account the imp t of such action on SCE's ability to complete effectively the items on Schedules A, B and C and, in consultation with ~,
E will :
try to inimize such impact. Althoughlany fonnal regu tory action taken by he NRC will be effective in accordance wit its terms
. without in lusion in Schedule A, the NRC.and SCE.re ognize the ;
desirabilit of incorporating such action into Sc dule A, '
particularly order to incorporate at the same time any other appropriate cha es in the total integrated sc dule program.
Accordingly, one such formal regulatory acti is taken (or earlier, if practi ble), the NRC will provi e SCE a reasonable opportunity to prop e overall changes in e total integrated schedule program whic would most effecti ely acconmodate such require-ments. Any resulting anges in items Schedule A will be submitted to the NRC for review in ccordance wi established procedures, and, if approved by the Comis on, will t ereupon be reflected in a revised Schedule A submitted by SCE SCE w 1 inform the NRC of any resulting changes in Schedule B in acc danc with Section V above.
C. New WRC Issues.(Schedule.B)
, )
The NRC may, from time to ti , ide tify new regulatory issues which may result in (a) plant mo fication , (b) procedure revision or development, or (c) chang in facili staffing requirements.
For issues on which the C reqeests s eduling information, these -
issues may be included n Schedule B in ccordance with the date cocnitment developed discussico betwe SCE and the NF.C reaff.
As for the case of N originated changes o Schedule A items, the NRC will provide SC a reasonable opportuni to propose overall 4
changes in the to 1 integrated schedule pro am which would most effectively acco date such issues. Any res ting changes in integrated prog am schedules will thereupon be eflected in a revised Sched e B submitted by SCE.
VII. MODIFICATIONS.TO HE. plan The licensees nd the NRC recognize that the Plan itself may quire future modif cations.

assess the overall effect of changes to schedules and erve as a departu oint for discussion between the NRC and SCE r garding such changes, a discussed below. ,
IV. S_CHEDULE MODI CATIONS An important aspe t of SCE's planning effort is t recognition that the schedule will need o be modified at times to re ect changes in regulatory requireme s, to acconnadate those a tivities that SCE finds necessary to improve p ant efficiency and reli ility, and to take into account delays resultin, from events beyond S E's control. It'is ,
important that the proced e used by SCE for changing the schedules be documented. */ In addition the NRC must ay a role in the oversight I
of the scheduling process an must, in fa , judge the acceptability of -
proposed date changes in Sch le A. Ac ordingly, it is important that the NRC's role, and the interac on be n the NRC and SCE be clearly defined, as discussed below.

' The' Integrated Implementation Sch ule r utres that SCE monitor the progress of the work undertaken, nage i activities to maintain the schedule, and act promptly to t a necessa actions when a schedule change is needed.
A. periodic Updating Southern California E ison will update Schedules , B and C semi-annually and su mit the revtsed schedules to e NRC beginning
~
s1x months followin NRC approval of the Plan. In dition to updating the sched les, SCE will:
Summarize p gress in implementing NRC requirements oncerning' plant modi ications.
'. Identify changes since the last report. '
Susmar e the reasons for schedule changes associated with Sched es A and B.
- /
~ Schedules A, B and C will contain sufficient detail to identify those plant capital modifications with completion dates keyed to fuel cycle
',_ outages. The schedules may also contain specific dates (either calendar date or keyed to some other milestone) for major evaluations.

- 8. hanges to Schedules Cha es to the schedules may arise from a variety of easons, such as n work activities; modifications to the scope scheduled work; p lens in delivery, procurement, etc.; cha es in NRC rules ,
and regula fons; or other NRC or SCE actions.
Where it is ne ssary to add a new work ites or to change the schedule for an em, the following general g dance will be utilized to the ex nt appropriate:
Determine the prio ity of the project or changed priority, using the Westingho e Analytical Ra king Process.
Schedule the.new or cha ed item t avoid rescheduling other items already well underw y if 1 can be reasonably achieved.
Alter Schedule B and C items 'b ore Schedule A items.
- Select a schedule for the ne or' changed ites which will help maintain an optimum integra d. program of work.
If a new Schedule A item is ad d, regardless of the results of the above ranking / scheduling pro s, the implementation schedule of the new ites shall comply with a licable NRC regulations, orders, or license conditions unless a ifferent schedule has been formally established in accordance th appropriate Coamission procedures.
As noted above, no chang s will be made to Schedule A without prior NRC approval. Should a change become necessary, it will only be proposed after SCE has determined that rescheduling of lower priority work either ill not significantly assist in maintaining Schedule A without c ange, or that the safety, cost or schedule penalties froe rese eduling lower priority work significantly outwigh the chan in a Schedule A cospletion date.
SCE will inform he NRC Project Manager when serious consideration is given to esting a change in Schedule A. When SCE determines that a change n Schedule A is necessary, it will submit a written request for N C approval in accordance with applicable procedures.
SCE will no ify ?!RC in writing at least 30 days before adopting a planned de ay for an item in Schedule B. Such notification will also include tye reasons for 'the delay and describe any compensatory actions indicated. The revised date proposed by SCE will go into effect

unless NRC, in writing, requests further explanation or discussion concerning such change. If NRC makes such a request, it will be made within 15 days of receipt of SCE'S written notification. In this event, discussions will be initiated to promptly develop a schedule date which is mutually acceptable to SCE and the NRC Project Manager while considering overall program impact. The itten notification by NRC will serve to extend the schedule ate f the period of time required for such discussions. If a ew date i is e tablished in these discussions such date will supers e the !
date t forth in Schedule 8. The new date will be inco porated in l a revis Schedule B in the next semi-annual schedule date submitted o NRC. If a new data cannot be establish in these discussions, SCE changes in scheduled dates will be effective unless l subsequently dified by NRC Order. l Work items in Sch dule C may be ruscheduled or ork'itens may be l added to Schedule by SCE without NRC notif atton. SCE will l report changes to Sc edule C items in its s 1-annual update to be i e

VI. NRC REVIEW As pointed out in.Section V.B above, anges to the schedules are inevitable, Actions required by th NR are oiscussed below:
A. Southern California Edison iginated hanges
- 1. Upon receipt from SC of a request modification of Schedule A, NRC will act p ptly (consistent w h resource availability anc priority of o er work) to act on th request in accordance with applicable rocedures.
- 2. If the reques for a modification 'of Schedule is denied, the NRC shall pr tly inform SCE and provide the r asons for denial.
- 3. NRC cons deration of SCE changes in non-Schedule A ems is covere by V.S above. .
B. MRC Origi ated Chances -(Schedule A)
It is ecognized that formal NRC regulatory actions ma (1)i pse an regulatory requirement with a fixed date or (2) y: establish a fi date for a previously identi: ed regulatory requirement. In t ing any such action, the NRC, to the extent consistent with this ,
verall regulatory responsibilities and, unless public health, JULl7 E NENmE2n 10. 60
r y v.. ,
s 4 ,-
safety, or interest require otherwise, will take into account the impact of such action on SCE's ability to complete effectively the items on Schedules A, B and C and, in consultation with SCE, will try to minimize such impact. Although any formal regulatory action taken by the NRC will be effective in accordance with its terms without inclusion in Schedule A, the NRC and SCE recognize he irability of incorporating such action into Schedule ,
par larly in order to incorporate at the same time y other approp te changes in the total integrated schedul rogram.
According , once such formal regulatory action is aken(or earlier, if racticable), the NRC will provide 5 a reasonable opportunity t repose overall changes in the tal integrated schedule progra which would most effectively acconnodate such require-ments. Any resul ng changes in items in 5 edule A will be submitted to the NRC for revi in accordance with tablished procedures, and, if approved by the Co ission, will ther pon be reflected in a revised Schedule A submitted by CE. SCE will nform the NRC of any resulting -
changes in Schedule B in cordance w h Section V above.
C. New HRC !ssues (Schedule B)
J The NRC may, from time to time ide ify new regulatory issues whic'h may result in (a) plant modif ations, (b) procedure revision or development, or (c) changes n facility taffing requirements.
For issues'on.which the NRC requests sche ling information, these issues may be included in chedule B in acco ance with the date connitment devaluped in scussion between SC nd the NRC staff. .
As for the case of HRC riginated changes to Sch ule A items, the NRC will provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to p pose overall changes in the total ntegrated schedule program wh h would most effectively acconno te such issues. Any resulting c nges in integrated program chedules will thereupon be reflect in a
. revised Schedule submitted by SCE.
VII. MODIFICATIONS TO TH PLAN The licensees and the NRC recognize that the Plan itself may require future modificat ons. Accordingly, SCE will draft proposed modifications and submit a 1 anse amendment applicat1on for approval of the proposed changes. The hanges, if approved, will be made effective spon aswndment issuance by e NRC.
