\\,,.....f" SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF. NUCLEAR REACTOR P.CGilLATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 36 TO FACILITY OPEPATING LICENSE NPF-12 SOUTH CAROLINA ELECTRIC & GAS COMPANY SOUTH CAROLINA PUBLIC SERVICE AUTHORITY I.

INTRODUCTION By letter dated July 19, 1984, South Carolina Electric and Gas Company requested a change to Technical Specification 6.3, " Unit Staff Qualifica-tions," to clarify educational requirements of' candidates for Senior Reacto'r Operator's (SRO) Licenses. The revision consisted of a reference to NUREG-0737, " Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements,"Section I. A.2.1, and NUREG-1021, " Operator Licensing Examiner Standards," ES-109D.

This request was noticed in the Federal Register (49 FR 38408) on September.28, 1984. This request was amended by letter dated November 29, 1984, to reflect only the NUREG-0737 Section I.A.2.1 reference. The reference to NUREG-0121, ES-1090 was redundant to the NUREG-0737 Section I. A.2.1 reference and, therefore, was deleted to avoid possible confusion by implying additional clarification.

Since the deletion of a redundant reference does not substantially change the Technical Specification amendment, this amendment request was not renoticed.

II.

EVALUATION The proposed revision requests the. addition of NUREG-0737,Section I.A.2.1 as a reference to clarify the supplemental requirements specified in Sections A and C of Enclosure 1 to the March 28, 1980, letter to all licensees.

We have reviewed this and find that NUREG-0737,Section I. A.2.1, does provide additional clarification as to what qualifications requirements are acceptable, as discussed in the March 28, 1980, letter to all licensees. Therefore, we conclude that the proposed amendment is accept-able.

III. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION This amendment involves a change in the use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20. The staff has determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any 8502050801 850124 PDR ADOCK 05000395 P

s effluents that may be released offsite and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. _ The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that this amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comment on such finding. Accordingly, this amendment. meets the eli criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR Sec 51.22(c)gibility

Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b) no environmental impact statement or environ-mental assessment need be. prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.

IV.

CONCLUSION The Commission made a proposed determination that the amendment involves no significant hazar'ds consideration which was published in the Federal Register (49 FR.38408) on September 28, 1984, and consulted with the state of South Carolina. No public comments were received, and the state of South Carolina did not have any comments.

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 issuanca of this amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health ard safety of the public.
