DESCRIFTION CHANGES -T0 LICENSE CONDITIONS 2.C.(19)a and 2.C.(19)c Facility Operatin -License Conditions 2.C.(19)a,'" Shift: Technical Advisor I;A.1.1, SSER #1 ." and 2.C.(19)c, " Independent Safety Engineering Group I.B.1.2, SSER #1 ." are deleted from Unit 2. The requirements from both .,*

license conditions are in TSs 6.2.4 and 6.2.3, respectively.

CHANGES TO LICENSE CONDITION 2.E, " Physical Security" The Physical Security Plan, Security Force Training and Qaalification Plan,-

and Safeguards Contingency Plan are constantly revised such that the specific-dates reflected in the existing license condition would not always be the-latest revision of the plans. Therefore, the specific-dates are deleted and the vrbiage revised to make the license condition reflect current revisions to the plans.

CHANGES TO TS SECTION 1.26,'" Reportable Occurrence," AND TS INDEX T3 Section 1.26 and TS index are revised as a result of incorporating in -

Section 6.0 the guidance provided in' Generic Letter (GL) 83-43 " Reporting-Requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Sections 50.72 and 50.73, and Standard Technical. Specifications." Similar changes related to reporting _ requirements were made to San Onofre Unit 1-and were accepted by the NRC as documented in'-

Reference 1. J Other revisions to the TS index include:-1) the renumbering.of Section 6.0 lpages due to the proposed removal of the-Offsite and Onsite Organization (Figures 6.2-1 and 6.2-2) pa Amendment Nos. 68 and 57, the2)ges which were 4.7-2,:"

deletedSnubber from theVisual TS previously by addition of Table

-Inspection ; Interval," which was inadvertently omitted from the index during.

the license amendment request for Amendment Nos._95 andL85, and 3) the removal of 'certain-TS sections which were deleted previously by Amendment Nos. 83 and - -

-73.

CHANGES TO TS SECTION 6.0, " ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS" Organizational Section 6.0:is revised.to reflect the latest changes in-the Southern [

California Edison -(SCE) nuclear organization-and clarify personnel _

- responsibilities within the nuclear organization as a' result of: the-changes.

These organizational changes' increase executive level attention and oversight 1 of nuclear-activities.- Similar changes were made to Unit 11and were acceptedt

.by'the NRC as documented in-Reference 1.

Reporting. Requirements 7

Section:6.0.TS'changesirelated to reporting requirements' incorporate the' guidanceL provided in GL 83-43, '_" Reporting Requirements of 10 CFR Part 50,-

Sections 50.72 and 50.73, and Standard Technical Specifications." Similar.

3-

i l

changes related to reporting requirements were made to San Onofre Unit 1 and  !

were accepted by the NRC as documented in Reference 1. '

The chan}e to Subsection 6.9.1.8, . " Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report," ensures that the report appropriately reflects the quantity of solid radioactive waste that is ultimately shipped to the disposal site.

Other Changes Including Editorial Changes The transfer of the responsibility for the Control Room command function from the Shift Superintendent (SS) to the Control Room Supervisor (CRS) is made to be more consistent with the regulations and the specific duties and responsibilities of the SS and the CRS. Section 6.0 editorial changes are made to provide consistency with Unit 1 ar,d resolve inconsistencies within Unitt 2 and 3.

CHANGES TO TS SECTION 7.0, "SPECIAL TEST PROGRAM" This section specifically permits exceptions to certain TSs affected during the conduct of natural circulation testing. Because the natural circulation testing program was required only during the initial startup testing program and the test was successfully completed, this section is no longer applicable.

BACKGROUND By letter dated Ma'ch 7, 1984, SCE submitted Liccnse Amendment Application Nos. 24 and 10 contisting of PCN-083 for San Onofre Units 2 and 3, respectively. On lay 1, 1984 SCE submitted Amendment Application No. 117 (PCN-130) for San Onofre Unit 1. Both PCN-083 and PCN-130 requested revisions to TS Section 6.0, ' Administrative Controls," to 1) reflect changes in SCE's organizational struc ture, review and approval responsibilities, 2) incorporate the NRC reporting requirements guidance provided in Generic Letter 83-43, and

3) incorporate minor clarifications to Section 6.0 requirements to make the units consistent.

On April 12, 1985, SCE made a combined resubmittal of PCN-083 and PCN-130 and responded to NRC staff auestions on the proposed Section 6.0 changes.

Followup submittals on PSN-083 were made by SCE letters dated August 2,1985, August 15, 1985, and May 3, 1988.

On February 7, 1986, SCE submitted PCN-214 as Amendment Application Nos. 33 and 19 for Units 2 and 3. PCN-214 deleted the Special Report and Licensee Event Report requirements f rom TS 3/4.4.7, " Specific Activity." The Special Reporting requirement was transferred to TS 6.9.1.5 " Annual. Reports." PCN-214 was approved on June 25, 1986, as Amendment Nos. 50 and 39.

On September 13, 1988, SCE made a combined submittal of PCN-273 (Amendment Application Nos. 62 and 48 for Units 2 and 3) and PCN-195 (Amendment Application No. 153 for Unit 1). PCN-273 deleted the organization charts and revised tLe Nuclear Safety Group (NSG) and Independent Safety Engineering Group (ISEG) reporting responsibility in response to GL 88-06, " Removal of 4

Organization Charts from Technical Specification Administrative Control Requirements." PCN-195 deleted the organization charts and revised the NSG reporting responsibility.

PCN-273 specifically revised Section 6.2.1 " Unit Staff," and added subsections 6.2.1.a through 6.2.1.d to establish lines of authority, responsibility, and consnunication from the highest management levels through the intermediate levels to all operating organization personnel. Subsection 6.2.2.g was added to designate positions in the onsite organization that require a Senior Reactor Operator's (SRO) license or a Reactor Operator's (RO) license.

Figures 6.2-1, "Offsite Organization," and 6.2-2, " Unit Organization," were deleted. ISEG-related Sections 6.2.3.4, " Authority," and 6.2.3.5, " Records,"

were revised. Section 6.5.3.6 revised the reporting responsibility of the NSG. Both PCN-273 and PCN-195 were approved on October 18, 1988, as Amendment Nos. 68 and 57 for Units 2 and 3, and Amendment No. 110 for Unit 1, respectively.

On February 14, 1989, SCE submitted PCN-285 as Amendment Application Nos. 77 and 63 for Units 2 and 3, respectively. PCN-285 revised TS 6.2.2.g " Unit Staff," to explicitly require the Assistant Plant Superintendent to maintain a Senior Reactor Operator's license. PCN 285 was approved on Hay 9, 1989, as Amendment Nos. 71 and 59.

By telephone on April 4,1989, WE agreed to withdraw Amendment Application Nos. 24 and 10 (PCN-083) because SCE considered PCN-083 no longer appropriate.

By letter dated April 12, 1989, the NRC informed SCE that the NRC would consider PCN-083 to be withdrawn unless SCE notified the NRC within-10 days that PCN-083 was still valid. By letter dated April 25, 1991, the NRC infonned SCE that PCN-083 was officially withdrawn.

On September 11, 1989, SCE submitted PCN-293 as Amendment Application Nos. 81 and 67 for Units 2 and 3, respectively. PCN-293 requested in part to revise Section 6.0 TS to incorporate the guidance provided in _GL 89-01,

" Implementation of Progransnatic Controls for Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications in the Administrative Controls Section of the Technical Specifications...or to the -Process Control Program." PCN-293 included changes-to Sections 6.8.4, 6.9.1.6, 6.9.1.7, 6.9.1.9, 6.10.2, 6.13, 6.14, and 6.15.

PCN-293 was approved on January 12, 1990, as Amendment Nos. 83 and 73.

The effort to incorporate numerous changes to Section 6.0, " Administrative Controls," and maintain consistency among Units 1, 2, and 3 has been_a complicated task. The numerous organizational and administrative changes that have:been implemented _at San Onofre and the existing differences among the three units have contributed to the-difficulty-of applying Section 6.0 TS in a consistent manner. To resolve these inconsistencies, a proposed change request is needed.

" and change from the Contro Control Room command function" to " ultimate comand decision authority over all unit activities and operations which affect the safety of the plant, site personnel, and/or the general public."

The change from " Supervisor" to " Superintendent" reflects 'the correct position title. The other changes are related to the transfer of the " Control Room command function" from the Shift Superintendent (SS) .to the Control Room Supervisor (CRS) as appropriate. However, the SS is still the senior position in the operating shift crew and has the ultimate command decision authority and responsibility to direct the overall operation of the I

9

unit (s). The SS maintains a broad perspective of the' condition and status.of the plant and ensures the conduct of plant activities

.. will not compromise the health and safety of the operating crew, site 3ersonnel, and the general public. The SS must not be encum>ered with responsibilities to the extent-that his shift l oversight functions will prevent free movement about the plant. In i addition, the duties and responsibilities specified in the Station i Emergency _ Plan direct the attention of the SS to those activities which coordinate site, local, state, and federal agencies response to any accident at the plant which may challenge radiation release boundaries. The SS is required to be onsite at all times when any unit is loaded with fuel. The ultimate comand decision authority-of the Shift Superintendent is in accordance with the Justification for the Provisions of the Rule published in the Federal Register /Vol. 46, No. 133/ Monday, July 11, 1983* Rules and Regulations,10CFR50.54(m)(2)(ii),and10CFR50.47(b)(2),

b. In the second sentence of the paragraph, "Vice President of Nuclear Operations" is changed to "Vice President and Site Manager, Nuclear Generation Site."

The "Vice President of Nuclear Operations" title no longer exists.

As indicated in item 2, the Vice President and Site L.tager is responsible for overall unit operation. The proposen .hange makes '

the units consistent.

c. In the second sentence of the paragraph, " site /" is added before

4 TS Section 6.1.3 Add this new TS section to read: "The Control-Room Supervisor (or during his absence from the Control Room Area, a designated individual with a valid SR0 license) shall be responsible for the Control Room command function. The Control Room Supervisor should nomally be present in the Control Room and shall be within the Control Room Area defined in Figure 6.2-3."

This change is made to require the CRS to be responsible for-the Control' Room command function instead of the SS. The position'of CRS at San Onofre meets a portion of the reouirements of 10 CFR'50.54(m)(2)(iii) which states:

"When a nuclear power unit is in an operational mode other than cold shutdown er refueling, as defined by the unit's technical specifications, each licensee shall have a person holding a senior operator license for the nuclear power unit in the control room at_ al?

times. In addition'to this senior operator, a licensed operator or senior operator shall be present at the controls at all times..."

. - _ _. ~_

The CRS maintains a broad perspective of the condition and status of the l unit,(s) he is assigned to. The CRS provides direction to and assessment of the licensed operator's activities and is not required to be "at the controls,"

described in which 10 CFRis normally(the function of the licensed operator asThe CRS i 50.54(m) 2)(iii).

spent most of the time in the portion of the Control Room where 1) there is direct and prompt access to information on current unit (s) conditions -]

and 2) the CRS can directly supervise and communicate with the operator i at the controls, in accordance with the guidance )rovided in Regulatory l Guide 1.114. However, the CRS should also have tie flexibility to periodically move for a brief period of time to other parts of the control room, but within the Control Room Area defined in Figure 6.2-3, to perfom his designated duties.

The CRS and his normally continuous presence in the Control Room 1) provides the oversight function of a supervisor so that the probability h

of correctly potential detecting adverse abnonnal events consequences early enou5 will be increased, )to mitigate 2 provides the awareness of plant conditions prior to and resulting from an abnormal event so that his extra experience, knowledge, and training . n be used to act ]romptly to mitigate that event, 3) allows the reactor operator to be a)le to direct attention to performing the immediate actions necessary to mitigate that event rather than having to brief the CRS about the background of the event if the CRS was absent from the Control Room, 4) allows the continuous monitoring of the conditions of the unit (s), makes decisions based on those conditions, directs operator actions as appropriate to mitigate the consequences of such event, and 4 provides the SS, who will be acting as the Emergency Coordinator for such an event, updated infonnation on the status of the unit (s) during such an event. Therefore, this change is acceptable.

5 TS Section 6.2 In the section heading "AND ONSITE ORGANIZATION" is added after "0FFSITE." This change makes the units' TSs consistent. ,

6 TS Subsection 5.2.1.c The changes are:

12 TS Section 6.2 - Table 6.2-1 The proposed changes are: .

In the " POSITION" column, "SR0" is changed to "CRS." "R0" is changed to "C0/ACO," and "A0" is changed to "NPEO." These changes reflect the appropriate operating shift crew position titles and make the units consistent. San Onofre uses:

a. Control Room Supervisor (CPS) who holds a Senior Reactor _0perator's (SRO) license for the senior operator in the Control Room.
b. Control Operator (CO)/ Assistant Control Operator (ACO) for the two Reactor Operator (RO) positions required for the minimum shift crew composition. The CD or the AC0 mu:t have a Reactor Operator'.s license but they could have a Senior Reactor Operator's license.
c. Nuclear Plant Equipment Operator (NPE0) who is not required to hold an R0 license. However, an operator with an R0 license is allowed to fill the NPE0 position. Therefore, the "NPE0" position title is more appropriate.

In the explanation of position titles for Table 6.2-1, the changes are:

a. For SS,_" Supervisor"-is changed to " Super _intendent." San Onofre uses the title " Shift Superintendent" for the most senior position in the operating shift crew. This change makes the units consistent.

" Operator" is changed to " Operator's" and " License" is changed to

" license." These changes are editorial.

" San Onofre" is added before " Units 2 and 3." This change makes the units consistent,

b. "SR0" is changed to "CRS" and " Individual" is changed to " Control Room Supervisor" as the title for the senior operator in the Control Room. These changes make the units consistent.

-Next " Operator License" is changed to " Operator's license." This change is editorial.

i Next " San Onofre" is added before " Units 2 and 3." This change

_ makes the units consistent.

c. "R0" is changed to "C0/ACO," and " Individual" is changed to

" Control Operator / Assistant Control Operator. Then " Operator License" is changed to " Operator's license" and, "or a Senior Reactor Operator's license" is added af ter " Operator's license."

The two Reactor Operator (RO) positions required for the minimum shift crew at San Onofre are filled by a " Control Operator (CO)/

Assistant Control Operator (ACO)." The CO or ACO must have a Reactor Operator's license, but the C0 or ACO could have a Senior Reactor Operator's license.

Next, " San Onofre" is added before " Units 2 and 3." This change makes the units consistent.

d. "A0" is changed to "NPEO," and " Auxiliary Operator" is changed to

" Nuclear Plant Equipment Operator (Reactor Operator's license not required)."

San Onofre uses NPE0 as the title for the additional operators required for the minimum shift crew. This change makes the Units consistent.

e. In the first and second paragraphs of proposed page 6-6,

" Supervisor" after "Shif t" is changed to " Superintendent." This change reflects the correct position title for the most senior position in the operating shift crew.

13 Figure 6.2 Control Room Area This change adds the Operations Support Office, a washroom facility for the male operating crew (the existing washroom is designated for the female operating crew), lunch room, kitchen, Unit 2 and Unit 3 computer rooms, and the turbine laboratory to the boundary of the " Control Room Area" in Figure 6.2-3. This change allors the Control Room Supervisor, who holds the Control Room command function and normally remains in the Control Room, to have the flexibility to tccess the operations support staff, technical materials area, comfort areas, and other areas required to monitor unit operations for a brief period of time. Therefore, it is appropriate that these rooms be part of the " Control Room Area" in Figure 6.2-3.

14 TS Section 6.2.4 In the first sentence of the paragraph, " Supervisor" af ter " Shift" is changed to " Superintendent." This change is consistent with the proposed change to TS Section 6.1.2 above.

m.sistent with the guidance in Generic Letter 83-43. This change was made to Unit 1 and was accepted by the NRC as documented in

Reference 1. This change makes the units consistent.
b. Section 6.9.1 - Beginning in the second line of the paragraph, "U.

S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Attention: Document Control Desk.

Washington, D.C. 20555 with a copy to the" is added. In the fourth line, "NRC" before " Regional Administrator" is deleted and "of the Regional Office of the NRC" is added after " Regional Administrator".

These changes reflect the current NRC addressee for routine reports una r Section 6.9.1.

c. Subsection 6.9.1.4 - The last sentence, "The initial report shall be submitted prior to March 1 of the year following initial criticality" is deleted. This change is made because both Units 2 and 3 have long surpassed initial criticality. Therefore, the requirement is no longer appropriate.
d. Subsection 6.9.1.5 - In the second sentence of the second paragra>h for both Units 2 and 3 TSs, "the" is added before " limit." For tie Unit 2 TS, " exceed" is changed to " exceeded." For both Units 2 and 3 TSs, "the" is added after "less than." In the third sentence for the Unit 2 TS, "the" af ter "(5)" is capitalized to "The." These changes are editorial and make the units consistent,
e. Stbsection 6.9.1.8 - In the second sentence of the paragraph "and solid waste" is deleted. Next, a new third sentence is added which reads "The report shall also include a summary of the quantities of solid radioactive waste shipped from the unit directly to the disposal site and the quantities of solid radioactive waste shipped from the unit's intermediary processor to the disposal site."

Both industry goals and utility practices acknowledge the common practice of solid radioactive waste volume reduction. Offsite volume reduction is merely an extension of the utility's radioactive waste processing capabilities. The final volume shipped to a disposal site is reported in the Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report (SRERR). One aspect of the unit's performance is evaluated on the volume of solid radioactive waste received by a dis >osal operator. Because solid radioactive waste is often reduced )y a factor of 100, it is the quantity of solid radioactive waste after reduction by an intermediary processor that should be reported in the SRERR. This change ensures the SRERR reports the quantities of solid radioactive waste tnat are ultimately shipped to the disposal site.

f. Subsection 6.9.1.10 - In the second line of the first )aragraph,

" pressurizer" is added before " safety valves." This c1ange clarifies the valve challenges to be reported in the Monthly Operating Report. This change is consistent with the intent of the 26

Standad Technical Specifications.

" In the third line of the same paragraph, " Director Office of ,

Resource Hanagement," is deleted. " Attention: Document Control Desk," is added af ter "U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission." This change corrects the NRC addressee for the Monthly Operating Report.

The second paragraph of 6.9.1.10, which concerns the submittal with the Monthly Operating Report (MOR) of change (s) to the ODCM or major changes to the radioactive waste treatment systems, is deleted. The ODCH reporting duplicates TS 6.14 which require, ODCH change (s) to be submitted with or concurrent to the submittal of the Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Relea:,e Report. The radioactive waste treatment system reporting also duplicates ODCM Section 6.3, "Hajor Changes to Radioactive Waste Treatment Systcris (LiquidsandGases)." The radioactive waste treatment system reporting was deleted from Section 6.0 TS by Amendment Nos. 83 and 73 for Units 2 and 3, respectively, and relocated to the administrative section of the ODCH as permitted by Generic letter 89-01. This change makes the units consistent,

g. Subsections 6.9.1.11, 6.9.1.12, and 6.9.1.13 These TS subsections " REPORTABLE OCCURRENCES, " PROMPT NOTIFICATION WITH WRITTEN FOLLOWUP," and " THIRTY DAY WRITTEN REPORTS,"

respectively, are deleted.

These changes are consistent with the guidance provided in Generic Letter 83-43. These changes were made to the Unit 1 TS and were accepted by the NRC as documented in Reference 1.

h. Section 6.9.2 - In the first line of the paragraph " reports" is capitalized and reads " Reports." This change is editorial.

"U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Attention: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555, with a copy to the" is added after "to the." "NRC" before " Regional Administrator" is deleted and "of the Regional Office,of the NRC," is added after " Regional Administrator." These changes correct the NRC addressee for Special Reports.

41 TS Section 6.10 The changes are:

a. Subsection 6.10.1.c "0CCURRENCES" after " REPORTABLE" is changed to " EVENTS." This change is consistent with the guidance provided in Generic Letter 83-43. This change was made to the Unit 1 TS and was accepted by the NRC as documented in Reference 1.

b. Subsection 6.10.1.d After " activities" replace ";" with ",". I

,,This change is editorial.  !

c. Subsection 6.10.2.i - After "QA Manual" "not included in Specification 6.10.1" is added. This change ensures only records of activities required by the QA Manual that are not covered under 6.10.1 be retained for the duration pursuant to this specification,
d. Subsection 6.10.2.k "0SRC" is added before " meetings" and "of the OSRC" is deleted. Next, "the" before "NSG" is deleted and

" reports" is added after "NSG." These changes make the units consistent.

42 TS Subsection 6.12.2 The changes are:

a. In the first sentence of the paragraph, " Supervisor" is changed to

" Superintendent." This change makes the units consistent.

b. In the third sentence, " " is added after " posted" and "unless a health physics technician is in continuous attendance," is added before "a flashing light." The existing TS requires areas accessible to personnel where a major portion of the body could receive a 1,000 mrem dose in one hour and no enclosure for locking aurposes exists and no enclosure can be reasonably constructed, to ae roped off, conspicuously posted, and a flashing light activated as a warning device.

This change allows the use of flashing lights or the continuous attendance of a health physics technician to identify areas where dose rates are in excess of 1000 mrem / hour. A health physics technician would be in continuous attendance only when the greater than 1000 mrem /hr dose rates would be temporary or the flashing light would not be working. A similar change was requested for Unit 1 and was approved by the NRC on August 11, 1982 as Amendment No. 61. This change makes the units consistent.

43 TS Section 6.13 The changes are:

a. Subsection 6.13.2.1 - In the first sentence, "6.10.2n." is changed to "6.10.2.n." This change is editorial.

A second sentence which reads "This documentation shall contain:"

is added to the paragraph. This change is editorial.

b. Subsection 6.13.2.1.b - At the end of the paragraph, "." 13 deleted and "; and" is added. This change is editorial and makes the units consistent.

c. Subsection 6.13.2.2 " acceptance" is changed to " approval." This

. change makes the units consistent.

Also, "by the Station Manager" is added after "6.5.2". This change was requested in Unit 1 as documented in Reference 2.

44 TS Section 6.14 The changer. are:

a. Subsection 6.14.2.1 - In the first sentence of the paragraph, "6.10.20." is changed to "6.10.2.n." This change is editorial.

Next, a second sentence "This documentation shall contain: is added to the paragraph. This change is editorial.

b. Subsection 6.14.2.1.b - At the end of the paragraph, "." is deleted and replaced with "; and." This change is editorial and makes the units consistent,
c. Subsection 6.14.2.2 - Change " acceptance" to " approval." This change makes the units consistent.

Also, add "by the Station Manager" after "6.5.2." This change was requested in Unit .' as documented in Reference 2.

45 TS Section 6.15 For Unit 2, the existing " Intentionally Left Blank" page is removed from the TS.

For Unit 3, the section "6.15 MAJOR CHANGES TO RADI0 ACTIVE WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS -- DELETED" is removed from the TS.

Section 6.15 was deleted previously by Amendment Nos. 83 and 73, and the proposed changes will help clean up Section 6.0.

CHANGES TO TS SECTION 7.0, "SPECIAL TEST PROGRAM" TS Section 7.0 is deleted from the Unit 2 TSs because the natural circulation testing program was applicable only during the initial startup testing for Unit 2. There is no change in the Unit 3 TSs because Unit 3 does not have Section 7.0.

SAFETY ANALYSIS The proposed change described above shall be deemed to involve a significant hazards consideration if there is a positive finding in any one of the following areas:
