SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENOMENT NO.101 TO PROVISIONAL OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-20 CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY PALISADES PLANT DOCKET NO. 50-255 INTRODUCTION By letter dated December 19, 1985, the Consumers Power Company requested changes to the Palisades Technical Specifications.
The changes are administrative, deleting out~of date footnotes and references to an incorrect motor control center.
The four requested changes are evaluated below.
EVALUATION A.
Technical Specification 3.3.1(b) would be revised by deleting the asterisk within the specification and by also deleting the corresponding footnote at the bottom of the page.
This change is acceptable as the asterisk and footnote were only applicable to Cycle 5 operation and the plant is presently in Cycle 7.
B.
Technical Specification 3.3.3 would be revised by deleting the asterisk within the specification and by also deleting the corresponding footnote at the bottom of the page.
This change is acceptable as the asterisk and the footnote refer to the effective date for initial implementation (after the 1981 refueling) which has already passed.
C.
The Basis of Technical Specification 3.3 would be revised by deleting the words "at MCC9" located within the next to last paragraph.
The reference to the motor control center is incorrect due to modifications to the 480V breakers for the safety injection motor operated valves.
The correct breakers are now in MCC-21, 22, 23, and 24.
Furthermore, it is recognized that the inclusion of the correct motor control center (merely a location descriptor), is unnecessary.
Therefore, the change is acceptable.
D.
Technical Specification Table 4.1.2, Item 19, under Surveillance Method, would be revised to read, "... Then lock open breakers and control power key switches."

( l The change in' wording is' acceptable as it clarifies the existing wording and deletes an incorrect informational reference (MCC-9).
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION l
This. amendment involves a change in the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part'20 or in a surveillance requirement.
The staff has determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change i
in the types, of any effluents that may be~ released offsite, and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation
-exposure. The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that this-amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comment on such finding. Accordingly, this amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion' set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).
Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environ-mental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.
CONCLUSION We have concluded, based'on the considerations discussed above, that (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, and (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
