7590-01 Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Action:

The proposed exemption pertains to the installation of equipment providing an automatic RPT. Granting the exemption would not require any facility modifications. The licensee has performed a Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) submitted to the Commission on February 26, 1981, which concludes that the probability of core damage and subsequent radioactive release with an automatic RPT during an ATWS event is approximately 2x10-6

he licensee p g ncluded that an automatic RPT is not cost effective afets estimated at $93,000/ person-rem saved. The NRC staff has evaluated CPC's PRA, and has concluded that the automatic RPT modification ac K h u tt* S % T% ds[fu,.s 5 -- &W A

With regard to p.,tential nonradiological impacts, the proposed exemption does not affect plant nonradiological effluents and has no other environmental impact. Therefore, the Commission concludes there are no significant radiological or nonradiological environmental impacts associated with the proposed exemption.

Alternatives to the Proposed Action:

Since the Commission has concluded there is no measurable environmental impact associated with the proposed exemption, any alternatives with equal or greater environmental impacts need not be evaluated. The principal
