7500-01 UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION FLORIDA POWER CORPORATION, ET AL DOCKET NO. 50-302 NOTICE OF CONSIDERATION OF ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE AND OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING The United States Nuclear Pegulatory Commission (the Commission) is considering issuance of an amendment to Facility Operating License No. OPR-72, issued to Florida Power Corporation, et al (the licensee), for operation of the Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant located in Citrus County, Florida.
The amendment would revise Technical Specification (TS) 3.8.1.1 to provide more appropriate actions to be taken when one o' the batteries or battery char-gers supplying DC control power to the 230 KV switchvard breakers is inoperable.
It would also increase the allowable outage time to allow surveillance testina of the batteries within the Action Statement time interval while Units 1 and 2 (where the battery is located) are shutdown, rather than operatino as is presently done.
Thus, the DC systems will not have to be removed from service while those units are operating.
