7590-01 UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION DUKE POWER COMPANY DOCKET NOS. 50-369 AND 50-370 NOTICE OF CONSIDERATION OF ISSUANCE OF AMENDNENTS TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSES AND OPPORTl!NITY FOR HEARING The United States Nuclear Regulatory Comission (the Comission) is considering issuance of amendments to Facility Operating Licenses Nos.
NPF-9 and NPF-17 issued to Duke Power Company (the licensee), for operation of the McGuire Nuclear Station, linits 1 and ? located in Mecklanburn County, North Carolina.
The amendments would revise Technical Specification (TS) 3/A.7.13 "Groundwater t.avel" and referenred Table 3.7-7 "Groundwater level Monitors."
TS 3.7.13 presently requires that groundwater level be maintained at specii41 levels as detemined from eleven interior and exterior groundwater level monitors situated in or near the Reactor Buildings, the Auxiliarv Ru'1 ding and the Diesel Generator 9uildings. The proposed change would deleta the groundwater monitors for the Reactor Buildings and the Diesel Generator Buildirps, leaving only the five man'ters for the Auxiliary Ruilding. The change would introduce a revised groundwater level control strategy based upon a single alam level l
(731 feet MSL) for the Auxiliary Building monitors, and would change tha unit shutdown requirement fron one alamed monitor to three alamed ronitors out of 4
a total of five for the Auxiliary Ruilding. The licensea states that Duke
{
Design Engineering has performed analyses which show that the Deactor Buildirot and Diesel Generater Buildings een withstand a groundwater elevation corresponding to plant grade, 760 feet MSL (which is also tha full pond level for Lake Nomanl 8804220183 880415 ADOCK 0 % y9 DR
7590-01 !
and that. therefore, it is not necessary to continue monitoring the groundwater i
levels at lower elevations for these buildings.
Elevation 737 feet MSL was calculated to be the maximum level that groundwater could rise before overturning due to buoyancy would begin for the Auxiliary Building. To avoid reaching this level, the proposed TS would require that if groundwater level exceeds elevation 731 feet MSL as indicated by 3 of 5 monitor alarms, and cannot be reduced in one hcur, the McGuire Statien (both units) must be in at least hot standby within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, and hot shutdown within the next 6 houis, and cold shutdown within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.
The associated surveillance requirements would i
be changed to require that (1) the groundwate invel be demonstrated each shif t to be belew elevation 731 feet MSL and (2) the groundwater level monitor instrunent/ loop for the specified locations be demonstrated operable arrually by loop calibration or operational test.
This notice supersedes the related previous notice in 50 FR 38914 dated September 25, 1985.
