8ASES-3/4.4.2 SAFETY / RELIEF VALVES The safety valve function of the safety / relief valves operate to prevent the reactor coolant system from being pressurized above the Safety Limit of 1325 psig in accordance with the ASME Code. Analysis has shown that with the safety function of one of the eighteen safety / relief valves in9perable the reactor pressure is limited to within ASME III allowable values for the worst case upset transient. Therefore, operation with any 17 SRV's capable of opening.is allowable, although all . installed SRV's must be closed and have position indication to ensure that integrity of the primary coolant boundary is known to exist at all times.

Demonstration of the safety / relief valve lift settings will occur only during shutdown and will be performed in accordance with the provisions of Specification 4.0.5.

3/4.4.3 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM LEAKAGE 3/4.4.3.1 LEAKAGE DETECTION SYSTEMS The RCS leakage detection systems required by this specification are pro-vided to monitor and detect leakage from the reactor coolant pressure boundary.

These detection systems are consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.45, " Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Leakage Detection Systems,"

May 1973.

3/4.4.3.2 OPERATIONAL LEAKAGE The allowable leakage rates from the reactor coolant system have been based on the predicted and experimentally observed behavior of cracks in pipes. The ,

normally expected background leakage due to equipment design and the detection  !

capability of the instrumentation for determining systes leakage was also 1 considered. The evidence obtained from experiments suggests- that for leakage  ;

somewhat greater than that specified for unidentified leakage the probability '

is small that the imperfection or crack associated with such leakage would grow rapidly. However, in all cases, if the leakage rates exceed the values specified or the leakage is located and known to be PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE, the reactor i will be shutdown to allow further investigation and corrective action. i The Surveillance Requirements for RCS pressure isolation valves provide  ;

added assurance of valve integrity thereby reducing the probability of gross I valve failure and consequent intersystem LOCA. Leakage from the RCS pressure isolation valves is IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE and will be considered as a portion of the allowed limit.

'3/4.4.4 (CHEMlIT c-D EL E754 E The water chemistry limits of the reactor coolant system are established to prevent damage to the reactor saterials in contact with the coolant. Chlori limits are specified to prevent stress corrosion cracking of the stainless steel.

The effect of chloride is not as great when the oxygen concentration in the i coolant is low, thus the higher _ limit on chlorides is permitted during POWER I OPERATION. During shutdown and refueling operations, the temperature necessary for stress corrosion to occur is not present so high concentrations of chlorides re not considered harmful during these periods.

LA SALLE-UNIT 1- 8 3/4 4-2 Amendment No. 60

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES CHEMISTRY (Continued)

Conductivity measurements are required on a continuous basis since changes in this parameter are an indication of abnormal conditions. When the con-ductivity is within limits, the pH, chlorides and other impurities affecting conductivity must also be within their acceptable limits. With'the conductivity j meter inoperable, additional samples must be analyzed to ensure that the  !

chlorides are not exceeding the limits.

The surveillance requirements provide adequate assurance that concentra-tions in excess of the limits will be detected in sufficient time to take corrective action.

ATTACHMENT C SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION Comed has evaluated this proposed amendment and has determined that it does not represent a significant hazards consideration. According to 10 CFR 50.92(c), a proposed amendment to an operating license involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not:

Involve a significant increase in the probability of occurrence or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; q

Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously analyzed; or Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Comed proposes to relocate, to administrative controls, the chemistry limits provided in Technical Specifications (TS) Section 3/4.4.4, Reactor Coolant System Chemistry.

The determination that the criteria set forth in 10 CFR 50.92 (c) is met for this amendment request is indicated below:

Does the change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

The proposed changes simplify the TS, meet regulatory requirements for relocated TS, and implement the recommendations of the NRC's Final Policy Statement on TS improvements. The Chemistry requirements will be relocated to the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) and Administrative Technical Requirement that has been incorporated into the UFSAR by reference.

Future changes to these requirements will be controlled by 10 CFR 50.59. The proposed changes are administrative in nature and do not involve any modification to any plant equipment or affect plant operation. Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of any previously evaluated accident.

Consequently, this proposed amendment does not involve a significant increase l in the probability or consequences of any accident previously evaluated. l i

4 ATTACHMENT C SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION Does the change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident

- from any accident previously evaluated?

The proposed changes are administrative in nature, do not involve any physical alterations to any plant equipment, and cause no change in the method by which l any safety related system performs its function. Therefore, this proposed TS amendment would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident

. from any accident previously evaluated.

Does the change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

The proposed amendment represents the relocation of current requirements that are based on generic guidance or previously approved provisions for other stations.~ The proposed changes are administrative in nature and do not adversely affect existing plant safety margins or the reliability of the equipment assumed to operate in the safety analysis. The proposed changes have been evaluated and found to be acceptable for use at Duane Arnold Energy Center and Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station. Since the proposed changes are administrative in nature, and are based on NRC accepted provisions which have been adopted at other nuclear facilities, and maintain the necessary levels of system reliability, the proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.

Therefore, based upon the above evaluation, Comed has concluded that these changes do not constitute a significant hazards consideration.

ATTACHMENT D ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Comed has evaluated this proposed operating license amendment request against the criteria for identification of licensing and regulatory actions requiring environmental assessment in accordance with 10 CFR 51.21. Comed has determined that this proposed license amendment request meets the criteria for a categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9) and as such, has determined that no irreversible consequences exist in accordance with 10 CFR 50.92(b). This determination is based on the fact that this change is being proposed as an amendment to a license issued pursuant to 10 CFR 50 that changes a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 CFR 20, or that changes an inspection or a surveillance requirement, and the amendment meets the following specific criteria:

(i) The amendment involves no significant hazards consideration.

As demonstrated in Attachment C, this proposed amendment does not involve any significant hazards consideration.

(ii) There is no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluent that may be released offsite.

The proposed change is administrative in nature. There will be no change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents released offsite.

(iii) There is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational I radiation exposure. l The proposed changes will not result in changes in the operation or ,

configuration of the facility. There will be no change in the level of controls {

cr methodology used for processing of radioactive effluents or handling of l solid radioactive waste, nor will the proposal result in any change in the j normal radiation levels within the plant. Therefore, there will be no increase l in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure resulting from I this change.
