INTRODUCTION:
By letter dated January 8,1986, (sic) (1987) the Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) requested changes to the Fort Calhoun. Station, Unit 1 Technical Specifications (TS) Table ?-1, " Toxic Gas Monitors Operating Limits," and Table 3-3, " Minimum Frecuencies for Checks, Calibrations and Testing of Miscellaneous Instrumentation and Controls."

requirements concerning hydrogen fluoride detectors. The licensee stated that the hydrogen fluoride toxic gas detection requirements are no longer needed since the hydrogen fluoride has been removed from the Fort Calhoun Station.

It was later detennined that while OPPD will need this g
material in the future, OPPD did not and will not reovire that material onsite, and in April of 1986, OPPD shipped the material offsite to j

EVALUATION NUREG-0800, " Standard Review Plan (SRP) for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants," Revision 2. July 1981, Section 6.4, " Control Room Habitability System" states that in order to meet General Design Criterion 19 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, toxic gas detectors are required for the control room emergency ventilation system.
The Fort Calhoun Station TS state that onsite chemical hazards are chlorine, hydrogen fluoride, sulfuric acid and hydrazine.
The TS provides for chlorine, hydrogen fluoride, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and hydrazine/ ammonia detectors.
i The staff agrees with the licensee's conclusion that the hydrogen fluoride toxic gas' identification and requirements for detection are no longer needed since the hydrogen fluoride i
has been removed from the Fort Calhoun Station site.
The staff concludes that since the hydrogen fluoride detection reouirements are no longer needed, the proposed revisions to the Fort Calhoun Station TS meet the provisions of SRP Section 6.4 and the requirements of GDC 19, and are, therefore, acceptable.

..... The licensee has also proposed correcting a typographical error on Table 3-3 which the staff finds acceptable.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION 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 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 Comission has previously published a proposed finding that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public coment on such finding. Accordingly, the amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 651.22(c)(9).
Pursuant to 10 CFR 551.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendment.
CONCLUSION We have concluded;.tiased on the considerations discussed ancia, 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 Comission's regulations, and the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the comon defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
