Subject:
Crystal River Unit 3 Docket No. 50-302 Operating License No. DPR-72 Technical Specification Change Request No.130, Rev. I
Dear Sir:
Florida Power Corporation (FPC) hereby submits the enclosed three (3) originals and forty (40) copics of Technical Specification Change Request No.130, Rev.1, requesting amendment to Appendix A of Operating License No. DPR-72. As part of this request, the proposed replacement pages for Appendix A are enclosed.
This submittal requests that the tables of fire detection instrumentation, deluge and sprinkler systems, and fire hose stations be transferred from the Technical Specifications to the Crystal River Unit 3 Fire Protection Plan. In addition, a license condition is proposed to control changes to the Fire Protection Plan. With this submittal, we are withdrawing the request included in Revision 0 that would have amended action (a.) of Specification 3.7.11.4.
The Crystal River Unit 3 Fire Protection Plan (The Plan) provides the overall description of the fire protection program for the plant. The Plan is written in accordance with 10 CFR 50.48(a) and identifies the staff positions responsible for implementation of the program, specifies the administrative controls and policies to prevent fires or limit their severity, specifies the training requirements for general employees and fire brigade members. The Plan describes the features employed to limit fire damage and protect safe shutdown capability (i.e., manual and automatic fire detection and suppression systems as installed per Appendix R).
The Plan also contains a description of the Quality Assurance requirements and controls which assure continued effectiveness of the implementation and control of the program.

k FLORIDA POWER CORPORATION CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 DOCKET NO. 30-302/ LICENSE NO. DPR-72 REQUEST NO.130, REVISION 1 FIRE SERVICE SYSTEM TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS i
LICENSE DOCUMENT INVOLVED: Technical Specifications and Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant Facility Operating License PORTION:
3.3.3.7 Fire Detection Instrumentation 3.7.11.2 Deluge and Sprinkler Systems 1
3.7.11.4 Fire Hose Stations DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST:
This submittal requests that the tables of fire detection instrumentation, deluge and sprinkler system, and fire hose stations be moved from the Technical Specifications to the i-Crystal River Unit 3 Fire Protection Plan. A license condition is proposed to control changes to the Fire Protection Plan.
REASON FOR REQUEST:
TW change will allow timely implementation of the limiting condition for operation for additional and revised detection and suppression systems. These systems are being added to or modified by 10 CFR 50 Appendix R. Currently, Florida Power Corporation expects the' final designation of the new and modified fire protection equipment by the end of Refuel V.
Since final designation is necessary in order to update current Technical Specification pages, very little time will be available to process a Technical Specification change within the i
NRC.
By deleting these tables from the Technical Specification, formal amendment processing at the last minute is avoided. If these tables are not deleted or revised, the Technical Specifications will be inaccurate due to these Appendix R modifications.
EVALUATION OF REQUEST:
While this change may decrease the degree of control to which the tables currently are subject, the new level of control will be appropriate for this type of equipment. Controls include:
1.
The proposed license condition.
2.
Specification 6.8.1 requires the maintenance of a Fire Protection Program Plan.
I~
- 3.
Changes to the Plan, and hence the subject tables require a Plant Review Committee and Nuclear Plant Manager Review prior to implementation.
4.
The Plan is periodically audited pursuant to Specification 6.1.3 and 6.5.2.9.g.
l This Plan is readily available to NRC Inspectors for comment and enforcement.
~
Additionally, changes in the detection and suppression systems such as location, type, etc.,
'would be changes to the facility, such changes will be subject to the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59.

FLORIDA POWER CORPORATION CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 DOCKET NO. 50-302/ LICENSE NO. DPR-72 REQUEST NO.130, REVISION 1 SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST:
To comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.48 and Appendix R, Florida Power Corporation is modifying the facility fire protection features. These modifications affect equipment described in the Technical Specifications for Fire Detection Instruments, Deluge and Sprinkler Systems, and Fire Hose Stations to the extent that the Technical 1
Specifications will not be correct. To resolve this, the Amendment moves the equipment lists for the above fire protection features from the Technical Specifications to the Fire Protection Plan where the lists can be updated in a timely manner. This Amendment also proposcs a License Condition which specifies when and how changes can be made to the Fire Protection Plan.
BASIS FOR PROPOSED NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION:
The Commission has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards for making a no significant hazards consideration determination by providing certain examples (48 FR 14870). The example that the proposed Amendment fits is: "(vil) A change to make a license conform to changes in the regulations, where the license change results in very minor changes to facility operations clearly in keeping with the regulations."-
The Commission revised 10 CFR 50.48 and Appendix R on November 19, 1980 to become effective on February 17, 1981.
These regulations revised the requirements for fire protection features. The changes proposed herein correct the Technical Specifications such that the license conforms to the changes in 10 CFR 50.48 and Appendix R. For this reason, we :. ave determined that this Amendment involves no significant hazards consideration.
