20555 NRC DOCKET 50-424 OPERATING LICENSE NPF-61 V0GTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT UNIT 1 PROPOSED REVISIONS TO FULL-POWER TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Gentlemen:
Georgia Power Company's (GPC's) continuing use and review of the VEGP Unit 1 Technical Specifications have resulted in the identification of minor changes in addition to those proposed in our February 27, 1987 letter.
These changes are proposed for inclusion in the Technical Specifications to be issued with the full-power license.
The changes are annotated on the attached Technical Specification pages and are described below:
1.
Clarifications or explanations which do not change any LC0, applicability, action, or surveillance requirement are proposed as follows:
(a) Table Notation "c" on page 3/4 3-78 is changed to read "During radioactive releases via this pathway" to achieve consistency with page 3/4 3-74.
(b) On page 3/4 11-9, an asterisk is added to Item 3b to clarify that the note c.. page 3/4 11-10 is applicable.
2.
On pages 3/4 8-4 and 3/4 8-5, diesel fue*t oil sampling and analysis requirements are re-worded to minimize potential misinterpretations.
In addition, the requirement for mercaptan analysis is changed slightly in that 18,000 gallons rather than 15,000 can be added to a tank (if the last tank sample was within an acceptable limit) prior to an additional analysis.
The reason for this change is that fuel oil shipments typically consist of slightly over 8,000 gallons.
With the 15,000 gallon limit prior to analysis, every second shipment would need to be analyzed, while the 18,000 gallon limit would allow analysis of every third shipment.
Finally, the portion of the footnote on neutralization number analysis, which is only applicable for 60 days after license issuance, is deleted.

GeorgiaPower d U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission March 6,1987 Page Two 3.
On pages 3/4 7-17 and 3/4 7-18, the required flow rate for the Piping Penetration Area Filtration and Exhaust System is revised to reflect the results of pre-operational testing.
As stated in our Technical Specification certification letter dated January 13, 1987, this and other ESF filter system flow rates were subject to updating as flow balancing was completed.
The safety design bases of this system are met with the revised flow rate.
4.
Erroneous valve numbers on page 3/4 8-23 are corrected.
GPC requests that the NRC consider incorporating these proposed revisions when issuing Appendix A to the full-power license.
If the need for additional revisions is recognized, they will be brought to your immediate attention.
Please contact this office at any time if you have any questions.
