April 19, 1985 MEMORANDUM FOR: Those on Attached List FROM:
Dennis M. Crutchfield, Assistant Director for Safety Assessment Division of Licensing Thomas M. Novak, Assistant Director for Licensing Division of Licensing
SUBJECT:
FINAL DRAFT OF THE RIVER BEND UNIT 1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The attached final draft technical specifications for River Bend Unit 1 (enclosure 1) are being forwarded to you at this time for review. We request that you review those sections which pertain to your particular area of responsibility and that the results of this review, identifyino th
' "Y l} D e sections reviewed, be forwarded to the Technical Specification Review em (TSPG) by May@l985. We ere distributing these technical speci-fications at the nkk ' branch level, however, we request that the responses be consolidated, reviewed and returned at the Assistant Director level.
By issuing these technical specifications in the final draft form at this time without benefit of a fomal proof and review period between the second draft and the final draft, we are making a significant deviation from our nomal technical specification preparation process. This deviation is being made in the interest of expediting the review process 50 as not to unneces-sarily delay the planned plant startup date of some time in June 1985. It is important to note, however, that even though we are skipping one of the steps in the preparation process we are not skipping any of the steps in our j
independent review and certification process to assure the safety adequacy of the technical specifications. These steps, such as, the NRC Regional review, the internal NRC technical branch reviews, the independent NRC consultant review, and the applicants certification'of the correctness of the technical specifications will be performed as shown on the enclosed marked up schedule for River Bend (enclosure 2).
This is a very ambitious schedule we will be working to and will require the complete cooperation of all th9 parties involved. The schedule has been reviewed by both the NRC and applicant's management and has been established as the goal both organizations will be striving to achieve, q
gg/'((p(5 7A 0 Y ??'
. April 19, 1985 In making judgements about the correctness or adequacy of these technical specifications for River Bend you should be guided by the principles of NRR Office Letter No. 38. Deviations from the (CE) STS should not be proposed or accepted by the staff or applicant unless they are:
(1) necessary because of unique design features or unique organization characteristics, or (2) represent e significant improvement over the STS which should be included in the next revision to the STS and do not y
represent a change in generic recuirements whTch must be reviewed prior to implementation by CRGR.
Deviations from the STS which have merit but are generic and require CRGR review should not be proposed at this tirne for River Bend. Instead they should be processed thru CRGR as a revision to the STS which can later be applied to River Bend at the licensee's reouest or as a backfit by the staff.
Those generic changes involving an -ireediate safety concern should, however, not be delayed for CRGR review. Any such cases should be highlighted for expedited action by DL and other appropriate NRC Divisions.
Mr. Dean Houston, of TSRG will be available during the final review period to answer any questions which arise. He is located in Room 521, of the Phillips Building and his telephone nurnber is 49-28933.
Even if you have no consnents and are in agreement with the technical specifications content in your area of review, it is requested that a written response to that effect identifying those sections of the technical specifications reviewed be provided by the above specified date.

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS am WJa a u UNIT STAFF (Continued) f. Administrative procedures shall be developed and implemented to limit ralklien gefedian i the workino hours of unit staff who perform safety-related functions ge,nicians, Jr(e.g., licensed Senior Operators, licensed operators,tdth ph:,-i='*~ s g, auxiliary operators, and key maintenance personnel). Adequate shift coverage shall be maintained without routine heavy use of overtime. The objective shall be to have operating personnel work a nominal 40-hour week while the unit is operating. However, in the event that unforeseen problems require substantial amounts of overtime to be used, or during extended periods of shutdown for refue-ling, major maintenance, or major unit modifications, on a temporary basis the following guidelines shall be followed: 1. An individual should not be permitted to work more than 16 hours straight, excluding shift turnover time. 2. An individual should not be permitted to work more than 16 hours in any 24-hour period, nor more than 24 hours in any 48-hour period, nor more than 72 hours in any seven day period, all excluding shift turnover time. 3. A break of at least eight hours should be allowed between work periods, including shift turnover time. 4. Except during extended shutdown periods, the use of overtime should be considered on an individual basis and not for the entire staff on a shift. Any deviation from the above guidelines shall be authorized by the Plant Manager or either one of the Assistant Plant Managers or the Supervisor-Radiological Programs, or higher levels of management, in accordance with established procedures and with documentation of the basis for granting the deviation. Controls shall be included in the procedures such that individual overtime shall be reviewed monthly by the Plant Manager or his designee to assure that excessive hours have not been assigned. Routine deviation from the above guidelines is not authorized. RIVER BEND - UNIT 1 6-2 UE I O IES

We request that you review those sections which pertain to your particular area of responsibility and that the results of this review, identifying 11 the sections reviewed N ,:9 Group (TSRG)byMay/,beforwardedtotheTechnicalSpecificationReview , 1985. We are distributing these technical speci-fications at the NRR branch level, however, we request that the responses be consolidated, reviewed and returned at the Assistant Director level. By issuing these technical specifications in the final draft fem at this time without benefit of a fomal proof and review period between the second draft and the final draft, we are making a significant deviation from our normal technical specification preparation process. This deviation is being made in the interest of expediting the review process so as not to unneces-sarily delay the planned plant startup date of some time in June 1985. It is important to note, however, that even though we are skipping one of the steps in the preparation process we are not skipping any of the steps in our independent review and certification process to assure the safety adequacy of the technical specifications. These steps, such as, the NRC Regional review, the internal NRC technical branch reviews, the independent NRC consultant review, ard the applicants certification of the correctness of the technical specifications will be performed as shown on the enclosed marked up schedule for River Bend (enclosure 2). i This is a very ambitious schedule we will be working to and will require the complete cooperation of all the parties involved. The schedule has been reviewed by both the NRC and applicant's management and has been established as the goal both organizations will be striving to achieve. ) k )
. April 19, 1985 In making judgenents about the correctness or adequacy of these technical specifications for River Bend you should be cuided by the principles of NRR Office letter No. 38. Deviations from the (CE) STS should not be proposed or accepted by the staff or applicant unless they are: (1) necessary because of unique design features or unique organization characteristics, or (2) represent a significant improvement over the STS which should be included in the next revision to the STS and do not represent a change in generic reouirements which must be reviewed prior to implementation by CRGR. Deviations from the STS which have merit but are generic and require CRGR review should not be proposed at this time for River Bend. Instead they should be processed thru CRGR as a revision to the STS which can later be applied to River Bend at the licensee's request or as a backfit by the staff. Those generic changes involving an iminediate safety concern should, however, not be delayed for CRGR review. Any such cases should be highlighted for expedited action by DL and other appropriate NRC Divisions. Mr. Dean Houston, hf TSRG will be available during the final review period to answer ary questions which arise. He is located in Room 521, of the Phillips Building and his telephone number is 49-28933. Even if you have no conunents and are in agreement with the technical specifications content in your area of revie>.:, it is requested that a written response to that effect identifying those sections of the technical specifications reviewed be provided by the above specified date.
