October 29, 1997 Mr. James Davis Nuclear Energy institute 4
j 1775 Eye Street N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20006 3708 f
Dear Mr. Davis:
I On October 24,1997, the staff issued a license amendmord for the H.B. Robinson 2 conversion to the improved Standard Technical Specifications (STS). This is the 12th conversion to the j
improved STS, which will resuM in 16 unHs operating with these technical specifloations. The Robinson conversio.. la unique in that H served as a pilot for the development by NRC of a new -
format for the safety evaluation (SE) which should resuh in staff resource sa'vings and more timely reviews, while at the same time providing a clearer and more succinct product. In addition, the Robinson conversion amendment included a new license condition to ensure that surveillance schedules are not portutt>ed by the conversion to the improved STS. This amendment also conialns a licensee condition to enforce licenses commitments to relocate hems removed from the.3chnical spacifications to the appropriate licensee-controlled documents. This latter liano conddion is similar to one that is now being used by the staff for other relocations.
A key feature of the rensd SE l. a series of tables containing summary descriptions and categories of the changss ts 9,e technical specifications as a result of the conversion. H is our expectation that licenscos will provide these tables to the staff late in the review process as the staff starts to write the SE. No change in the format of the inhial submittalls being requested.
4 However, licensees should be aware of this expectation so that they can ensure that their data j
bases and word processing can easily generate these tables from existing submittal material at the appropriate point in time. We request that you make the availability of this amendment and mvised SE format widely known throughout the industry and include a reference to N in your planned update to NEl g6 06.
Sincerely, p s : o. & &
