BASES FOR LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION AND SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS 3.11.C. Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR) (Continued)

At core thermal power levels less than or equal to 255, the reactor will be operating at minimum recirculation pump speed and the moderator void content will be very small. For all designated control rod patterns which may be en-ployed at this point, operating plant experience and thermal hydraulic analy-sis indicated that the resulting MCPR value is in excess of requirements by a considerable margin. With this low void content, any inadvertent core flow increase would only place operation in a more conservative mode relative to

! MCPR. During initial start-up testing of the plant, a MCPR evaluation will be made at the 255 thermal power level with minimum recirculation pump speed.

The MCPR margin will thus be demonstrated such that future MCPR evaluations below this power level will be shown to be unnecessary. The daily require-ment for calculating MCPR above 255 rated thermal power is sufficient since power distribution shif ts are very slow when there have not been significant power or control . rod changes. The requirement for calculating MCPR when a limiting control rod pattern is approached ensures that MCPR will be known following a change in power or power shape (regardless of magnitude) that could place operation'at a thermal limit.

t 4.0 Special Surve111ance and Study Activities 4.1 Erosion Control Inspection 4.2 Unusual or Important Events Reautrements Requirements The licensee shall be alert to the occurrence of unusual or important events. Unusual or important events are those that -

cause potentially significant environmental impact, or could be i of pubite interest concerning environmental impact from plant -

operation. The following are examples: unusual or important bird impaction events on cooling tower structures or meteorological towers, onsite plant or animal disease outbreaks, unusual mortality of any species protected by the Endangered Species Act of 1973, fish kills near the HNP site, and significant violations of relevant permits and certifications.  :

Action .

Should an unusual or important event occur, the licensee shall make a report to the NRC as required by 10 CFR 50.72 or 10 CFR 50.73.

Bases Prompt reporting to the NRC of unusual or important events, as described, is necessary for responsible and orderly regulation I of the nation's system of nuclear power reactors. The information thus provided may be useful or necessary to others concerned with the same environmental resources. Prompt knowledge and action may serve to alleviate the magnitude of environmental impact or to place it into a perspective broader than that available to the licensee. The NRC also has an obligation to be responsible to inquiries from the pubite and the l news media concerning potentially significant environmental events at nuclear power stations. l 4.3 Exceedine Limits of Other Relevant Permits Requirements ,

i The ifcensee shall notify the NRC of occurrences exceeding the i Ilmits specified in relevant permits and certificates issued by

other Federal, State, and local agencies that are reportable to tt. agency that issued the permit. This requirement shall apply
only to topics of NEPA concern within the NRC area of j responsibility as identified in the Environmental Technical l

Specifications (ETS). ,

i l

HATCH - UNIT 1 4-1 Proposed TS/0056q/8401-1

,This requirement shall commence with the date of issuance of the operating license *for Unit 2 and continue until approval for modification or termination is obtained from the NRC in accordance with section 5.6.3.

Action The licensee shall make a report to the NRC in the event of a REPORTABLE EVENT exceeding a limit specified in a relevant permit or certificate issued by another Federal, State, or local agency. The report shall be submitted within the time limit specified by the reporting requirement of the corresponding certification or permit issued pursuant to Section 401 or 402 of PL 92-500. The report will consist of a copy of the report made to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Division.

Bases The NRC is required under NEPA to maintain an awareness of environmental impacts causally related to the construction and operation of facilities licensed under its authority. Further, some of the ETS requirements are couched in terms of compliance with relevant permits, e.g., the NPDES permit, issued by other licensing authorities. The reports of exceeding limits of relevant permits also alert the NRC staff to environmental problems that may require mitigative action.

4.0 Special Surveillance and Study Activities 4.1 Erosion Control Inspection 4.2 Unusual or Important Events Requirements i

Reevirements

The licensee shall be alert to the occurrence of unusual or  ;

important events. Unusual or important events are those that cause potentially significant environmental impact or could be

of public interest concerning environmental impact from plant l- operation. The following are examples
unusual or important i j bird impaction events on cooling tower structures or i meteorological towers, onsite plant or animal disease outbreaks, ,

unusual mortality of any species protected by the Endangered

] Species Act of 1973, fish kills near the HNP site, and j significant violations of relevant permits and certifications.

Actions Should an unusual or important event occur, the licensee shall

} make a prompt report to the NRC as required by 10 CFR 50.72 or 10 CFR 50.73.

l Bases Prompt reporting to the NRC of unusual or important events, as described, is necessary for responsible and orderly regulation ,

! of the nation's system of nuclear power reactors. The i- information thus provided may be useful or necessary to others concerned with the same environmental resources. Prompt  :

knowledge and action may serve to alleviate the magnitude of environmental impact or to place it into a perspective broader than that available to the licensee. The NRC also has an i obligation to be responsive to inquiries from the public and the i 4

news media concerning potentially significant environmental events at nuclear power stations.

4.3 Enceedine Limits of Other Relevant Permits

^

Requirements , i

! The Itcensee shall notify the NRC of occurrences exceeding the i limits specified in relevant permits and certificates issued by i

! other Federal, State, and local agencies that are reportable to

! the agency that issued the permit. This requirement shaII apply

only to topics of NEPA concern within the NRC area of 4 responsibility as identified in the Environmental Technical Specifications (ETS).

I i ,

i j HATCH - UNIT 2 4-1 Proposed TS/0064q/8402-1 L . - -- - . - -

This requirement shall commence with the cate of issuance of the operating license *for Unit 2 and continue until approval for modification or termination is obtained from the NRC in accordance with section 5.6.3.

Action The licensee shall r.ake a report to the NRC in the event of a REPORTABLE EVENT exceeding a limit specified in a relevant l permit or certificate issued by another Federal, State, or local agency. The report shall be submitted within the time limit specified by the reporting requirements of the corresponding certification or permit issued pursuant to Section 401 or 402 of PL 92-500. The report will consist of a copy of the report made to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Division.

Bases i The NRC is required under NEPA to maintain an awareness of environmental impacts causally related to the construction and operation of facilities licensed under its authority. Further, some of the ETS requirements are couched in terms of compliance with relevant permits, e.g., the NPDES permit, issued by other licensing authorities. The reports of exceeding limits of relevant permits also alert the NRC staff to environmental problems that may require mitigative action.
