The following information is provided in accordance with Operating License Condition 2.C.(3) whereby Georgia Power Company (GPC) is to report any cnanges to the Initial Test Program described in Section 14 of the FSAR made in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59.

The Process and Effluent Radiation Monitoring System Test described in FSAR Section 14.2.8.2.28 has been revised to address specifically the monitors which perform safety-related functions or provide safety-related diagnostic indications.

Enclosed is an abstract of the revised test.

The revisions to the test abstract will be incorporated in a future FSAR amendment.

Please contact this office if you have any questions.

Sincerely, L. T. Gucwa

i ENCLOSURE 14'.2.8.2.28 Process and Effluent Radiation Monitoring System Test A.

Objectives 1.

For monitors which:

a.

Will be used for establishing conformance with the safety limits or limiting conditions for operation that will be included in the facility technical specifications, or, b.

Are classified as engineered safety features or will be relied on to support or ensure operation of the engineered safety features within design limits, or.

c.

Are assumed to function or for which credit is taken in the accident analysis of the facility, and, d.

Will be used to process, store, control, or limit the release of radioactive materials.

2.

The objectives are:

a.

To verify the calibration of the process and effluent radiation monitor against an acceptable standard.

b.

To establish baseline activity and background levels, c.

To demonstrate that process and effluent radiation monitoring systems are responding correctly by peforming independent laboratory or other analyses.

B.

Prerequisites 1

The plant is stable at the desired power level.

2.

The sampling systems for the process and effluent systems l

are operable.

C.

Test Method 1.

Calibrations are performed with the use of radioactive sources to verify proper operation of the monitors and detectors.

2.

Samples are collected, analyzed with laboratory instruments, and compared with the process and effluent monitor to verify proper operation.

3.

Background levels are established at low power (less than 5%

power),

background levels and baseline activity

levels, determined by sampling, are establishec at 100%

power to monitor the buildup of activity.
