Attachment 3 e to P-85041 SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION A safety analysis was included as Attachment 2 to the submittal of these Specifications on December 30, 1983 (P-83415). This safety analysis will cover those changes made since the above submittal. All these proposed changes to LCO's have the new format' incorporated, and changes of this type have no impact on safety. LC0 4.6.1 This Specification has been divided into two new Specifications, LCO 4.6.1.1 and LC0 4.6.1.2. LC0 4.6.1.1 describes auxiliary electrical equipment required for operation above 2% power. Requirement for operation below 2% power is described in LC0 4.6.1.2. In addition to -the changes required by the format changes, LC0

         '4.6.1.1 has had existing sections reorganized into a more logical sequence. Specific changes include: the expansion of the 120V A.C.

bus requirements to describe bus pairs , and the battery requirements-have been altered to more accurately reflect the existing system. None of these changes alter the safety-functions of this system. SR 5.6.1 , - s This surveillance' was altered to be compatible with LC0 4.6.1.1 and LCO 4.6.1.2. The generic _ letter 84-15 . requirements on . Diesel Generator Reliability have also been incorporated. The reference to

          " partial discharge" has been changed to " service discharge".      This service discharge is the full capacity of the batteries required by the~FSAR, not_the full capacity of the . batteries. The performance discharge TESTS have also been added, and TABLE 5.6.2-1 was altered to be more easily read. These are not safety significant changes.

n-CONCLUSION

           .o These changes have been made to accurately and concisely indicate the
   *o                manner in which the plant may be safely operated. These changes, for the most part, have been made to correct errors and make the Specifications more clear.                            .

Based on the above evaluation, it is concluded that operation of Fort St. Vrain in accordance with the proposed changes will not: (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated, (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated, or (3) involve a sighificant reduction in any margin of safety, f' 'Therefore, these changes will not increase the risk to the health and safety of the public nor do they involve any significant hazards considerations. 9
