GRAND GULF TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION REVIEW

REFERENCE:

Memorandum from L. Rubenstein to R. Mattson, "Re-Review of Grand Gulf Technical Specifications," dated 3/8/84 As requested by your memorandum dated April 10, 1984, we have reviewed the problem sheets and the matrix sheets for the Technical Specification of the Grand Gulf. The problem sheets and matrix sheets contain the result of the applicant's review to find inconsistencies between the GGNS technical specification and the FSAR, SER and the as-built plant.

The Power Systems Branch, DSI, identifies the following ithms as our area of primary responsibility: Technical Specification Problem Sheet -

Item Nos. 60, 134, 135, 136, 137, 141, 142, 143, 145, 175, 176, 177, 178, 179, 180, 181, 226, 227, 228, 274, 288, 302, 333, 336, 337, 808, 809, 810 and technical specifiestion, 3/4.8.1.1 through 3/4.8.4.3 in the matrix sheets.

Based on our review, Item No. 227 needs to be resolved prior to restart under the low power operation license.

Item No. 227, T.S. 4.8.2.1.C.4, "The battery charger will supply:

I a) For Divisions 1 and 2, and

{

b) For Division 3, t

...at a minimum of 105 volts" (change to 125 volts)

"for at least 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />" (change to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />)

This is in conformance with the Standard Technical Specification.

Changes from this must be suitably justified.

SUBJECT:

PRIORITIZATION OF PROBLEM SHEETS FOR FULL POWER OPERATION OF GRAND GULF - AUXILIARY SYSTEMS BRANCH - TAC NO. 54808 The Auxiliary Systems Branch has reviewed the problem sheets which were pro-vided by the subject TAC. Of these new problem sheets only numbers 805, 821 and 826 appearto be within the responsibility of the Auxiliary Systems Branch.

It is our position that these three problem sheets and the 39 problem sheets identified in our April 9,1984 memorandum (Enclosure 1) should be resolved, as approved technical specification changes, prior to issuance of a full power license to Grand Gulf.

This completes our work on TAC NO. 54808.

APR 9 1964 fiEMORANDUM FOR: Thomas M. Novak, Assistant Director for Licensing, Division of Licensing FROM:

L. S. Rubenstein, Assistant Director for Core and Plant Systems, Division of Systems Integration

SUBJECT:

RE-PRIORITIZATI0fl 0F CHANGES TO GRAND GULF TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS - AUXILIARY SYSTEMS BRANCH - TAC NO. 54458 Per the revised DL work request sheet associated with the subject TAC and clarified by Les Kintner, the Auxiliary Systems Branch has reviewed the 341 changes to the Grand Gulf Technical Specifications and has identified 39 changes which are in the Auxiliary Systems Branch primary area of respon-sibility.

These 39 changes identified in the submitted problem sheets have been prioritized into the following two categories.

Category 1 itens should be resolved prior to criticality and Category 2 items should be resolved prior to exceeding 5% power.

As stated in our memorandum of March 21, 1984, it should be noted that the intent of the changes is not always clear. Therefore, we may not have selected all of the appropriate items. We request that the applicant pro-vide clear descriptions when the technical specifications are submitted for review and we will verify that all of the changes which are the responsibility of the Auxiliary Systems Branch have been identified.

The selection of a priority for a given change was based on the anticipated risk to the health and safety of the public with respect to the probability of an event, the potential hazard represented by the technical specification change, and the significance of the change. Based upon the above considera-tions, we have identified 23 Category 1 items (Nos. 17, 32, 82, 94, 100, 129, 132, 156, 159, 165, 173, 188, 195. 199, 208, 210, 214, 221, 222, 229, 250, 287, and 305) and 16 Category 2 items (Nos. 2, 35, 46, 58, 99, 176, 187, 255, 256, 258, 261, 267, 276, 312, 313 and 326).

This completes our work on TAC No. 54458.

Since we are not providing a safety evaluation report, we are not enclosing a SALP report.

MAY 0 21984 MEMORANDUM FOR:

Thomas M.' Novak, Assistant Director for Licensing Division of Licensing FROM:

William T. Russell, Deputy Director Division of Human Factors Safety

SUBJECT:

REVIEW 0F GRAND GULF TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS CHANGES (TAC N0. 54808)

Your memorandum of April 25, 1984, requests review of selected technical specification problem sheets to determine which problems require a technical specification change and/or an FSAR change prior to a full power license amendment.

Your memorandum also requested review of the MP&L response to NRR recommendations for technical specification changes resulting from the Fall-1983 NRC review of the Grand Gulf technical specifications and from the NRC review of changes to the technical specifications through Amendment 12, and a review of the MP&L response to changes recommended by EG&G.

Except for the Licensee Qualifications Branch, DHFS has no issues addressed by the enclosures to your memorandum.

The Licensee Qualifications Branch has reviewed the technical specification problem sheets referred to in your memorandum (342-372 and 815-832).

None of the matters addressed in these sheets is within the area of responsibility of LQB. We, therefore, have no comments.

We also have no comments on the changes resulting from the review of changes through Amendment 12 (your ) or the MP&L response to the recommendations of EG&G (your ).

The subject matter of these enclosures also is outside the area of responsibility of LQB.

Our review of the MP&L responses to NRC recommendations resulting from the Fall-1983 review (your Enclosure 2) revealed two items (A.15 and A.16) that are within the LQB area of responsibility:

A.15 pertains to the specification of required qualifications of ISEG members.

MP&L response (problem sheet 063) - ensure that appropriate procedures adequately address the qualifications of ISEG members.

Include in the Proof and Review response.

LQB evaluation - this response is acceptable provided the Proof and Review response incorporates these amended procedures.

Pending receipt of the d-daa this matter remains open.

\\-

s s

Thomas M. Novak,

  • A.16 pertains to the qualifications, method of appointment and duration of appointment of alterpates to the PSRC and the qualifications and duration of appointment of alternates to the SRC.

MP&L-response (problem sheets 064 and 065) - investigate the qualification requirements ar.d duration of appointment of alternates to the committees and the necessity,of changing the appointment authority for PSRC alternates.

Determine whether or not to include these matters in the technical specifications.

LQB evaluation - unacceptable.

These subjects are required to be adequately addressed in the technical specifications.

This matte-remains open.

Thic review was performed by R. Benedict and L. Crocker, Licensee Qualifications Branch.

There are no known dissenting opinions.

Due to the 11mited review of tiis matter and the lack of contact with the licensee, no SALP evaluation is provided.
