SUBJECT:

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant Unit Nos.1 & 2; Docket Nos. 50-317 & 50-318 Withdrawal of Request for Amendment of Chuge No. 6 Requested on July 31,1986, Regarding Moderator Temperature Coefficient

REFERENCES:

(a)

Letter from Mr. 3. A. Tiernan (BG&E) to Mr. A. C. Thandani (NRC), dated July 31,1986, Request for Amcniment Gentlemen:

The Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BG&E) hereby withdraws Change No. 6 requested in Reference (a), which would have expanded the positive Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC) limit (above 70% of rated thermal power). Reference (a) requested several license amendments. BG&E is withdrawing only Change No. 6. This request was submitted to envelope all positive MTC expectations for future 24 month cycles.

In support of this request a Feedline Break (FLB) analysis was presented based on the expanded MTC limit. Results of the analysis, for the case with a coincident loss of AC power, exhibit a maximum reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure occurring at approximately 29 seconds into the event following a reactor trip. This peak pressure exceeds 110% of the design RCS pressure.

It is our understanding that the NRC staff believes additional justification is needed for this proposed change because 110% design RCS pressure is exceeded. BG&E desires to withdraw the request and may elect to resubmit the proposed change at a later date with additional Justification and/or modification as needed.

Very truly yours, 0703040249 870218 PDR ADOCK 05000317 P
