(b)
MYAPCo Letter to USNRC dated September 13,1996 " Proposed Technical Specification Change No. 200 - Implementation of 10CFR50, i
Appendix J, Option l

Subject:
Proposed Technical Specification Change No. 200 - Implementation of j
10CFR50, Appendix J, Option B Gentlemen:
By Reference (b) Maine Yankee submitted the subject proposed change.
j We are hereby supplementing this proposed change to make minor editorial changes including l
the relocation of the phrase "as modified by approved exemptions" to clarify that exemptions l
apply only to rules rather than to regulatory guidance. Prcposed supplementary replacement l
pages for the Technical Specifications are provided in Attachment A. This supplement does not affect the Significant Hazards Evaluation presented in Attachment A of Reference (b).
In addition, we are requesting NRC concurrence with our position that the 1988 Integrated
{
Leak Rate Test, which was conducted at the Technical Specification Peak Accident Pressure (P,) in effect at the time (50psig), is considered a " Full-Pressure Test" for the purpose of complying with the NEI Guidance. The NEI Guide, which is referenced in Regulatory Guide 1.163, states (sec. 9.2.3, pg 11): "In the event where previous Type A tests were performed at reduced pressure, at least one of the two consecutive periodic Type A tests shall be performed
~
at peak accident pr' essure." An internal position paper whleh justifies this position is available for NRC review.
