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 this revision, t mains open.

Thomas M. Novak A.16 pertains to the qualifications, method of appointment and duration of appointment of alternates 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 and 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 matter remains open.

This review was performed by R. Benedict and L. Crocker, Licensee Qualifications Branch. There are no known dissenting opinions.

Due to the limited review of this matter and the lack of contact with the licensee, no SALP evaluation is provided.
