Exemotions l

The following exemptions are authorized by law and will not endanger life or property or the common defense and security, and certain special circumstances are present.. With the granting of these exemptions, the facility will operate, to the extent authorized i

herein, in conformity with the application, as amended, the provisions of the Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission.

~

(1) The facility requires an exemption from the requirements of General Design Crite.rion (GDC) 4, Appendix A to 10 CFR 50. The staff has described in detail in Supplement 4 and Supplement 5 to the Safety Evaluation Report the technical basis and "special circumstances" associated with this exemption. The staff's i

environmental assessment was published on March 27, 1987 (52 FR i

9979). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12(a)(1), 10 CFR l

50.12(a)(2)(ii) and (iv), Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit 2 is exempt from the requirements of GDC 4, Appendix A to 10 CFP. 50 i

with respect to the dynamic loading effects associated witn the i

postulated pipe breaks described in detail in Section 3.6.3 of Supplement 4 to the Safety Evaluation Report. These dynamic loading effects include pipe whip, jet impingement, and break-4

. associated dynamic transients.

Specifically, this eliminates the need to install jet impingement barriers and pipe whip restraints associated with postulated pipe breaks in the pressurizer surge line, reactor coolant bypass system, BEAVER VALLEY - UNIT 2 Amendment No. 74,83 1

i 5.2.1 FUEL ASSEMBLIES The reactor shall contain 157 fuel assemblies.

Each assembly shall i

consist of a matrix of Zircaloy or ZIRLO fuel rods with an initial composition of natural or slightly enriched uranium dioxide (UO ) as 2

fuel material.

Limited substitutiors of zirconium alloy or stainless steel filler rods for fuel ree,

in accordance with approved j

applications of fuel rod cea.igurations, may be used.

Fuel 1

assemblies shall be limited to those fuel designs that have been j

analyzed with -applicable NRC staff approved codes and methods and i

shown by tests or analyses to comply -with all fuel safety design i

bases.

A liinited number of lead test assemblies that have not i

completed representative testing may be placed in nonlimiting core regions.
