Dear Mr. Withers:

ACRS 10 LFMB G. Zwetzig The Commission has issued the enclosed Amendment No.114 to Facility Operating i License No. NPF-1 for the Trojan Nuclear Plant. The amendment consists of changes to the Technical Specifications in response to your application dated '

March 12, 1985. One of the requests contained in your application, however, concerns proposed changes to Specification 4.5.3, regarding the surveillance requirements for the ECCS when the reactor is in Hot Shutdown Operating Mode.

This request has not been approved for the reasons discussed in our Safety Evaluation.

The amendment revises a number of areas of the Technical Specifications in order to clarify existing operability and surveillance requirements,.to add new requirements or to correct errors that have been identified.~

! By letter dated August 22, 1985, you requested that the portion of the

! March 12, 1985 amendment request related to the definition of Containment Integrity (Specification 1.8) be withdrawn. The change would have allowed 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> for restoration of air lock operability and 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for restoration of isolation valve operability instead of the current I hour limit. The staff has reviewed your August 22, 1985 request and has determined that since the current Technical Specification is more conservative withdrawal is acceptable.

A copy of the related Safety Evaluation is also enclosed. The notice of issuance will be in:1uded in the Commission's next regular bi-weekly Federal Register notice. A separate notice of denial regarding your proposed changes to. Specification 4.5.3.1 also will be published.

Sincerely,
