SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION SUPPORTING AMENDMENT NO. 54 TO PROVISIONAL OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-45 DAIRYLAND POWER COOPERATIVE LA CROSSE BOILING WATER REACTOR (LACBWR)

DOCKET NO. 50-409

1.0 INTRODUCTION

i By application dated iobruary 21, 1986, Dairyland Power Cooperative (DPC) (the licensee) requested a change to Figure 6.2.2-1 of the La Crosse Boiling Water Reactor (LACBWR) Technical Specifications. The proposed amendment would: (a) change the position of Radiation Protection Engineering Specialist to Training Specialist, (b) transfer the Radiation Protection Engineer to the On-Site Technical Support Group, (c) designate a Technical Support Engineer as the Emergency Planning Coordinator, and (d) eliminate the position of Assistant General Manager-Power and transfer the related responsibilities to the General Manager.

2.0 EVALUATION l

The proposed changes involving transferring of the Radiation Protection Engineer to the On-site Technical Support group, eliminating the Radiation Protection Engineering Specialist and adding a Training Specialist report-i ing to the Health and Safety Supervisor involved a redistribution of j

responsibilities. The same number of people will remain with responsibili-l ties in radiation protection. The Radiation Protection Engineer will be concentrating on the engineering aspects, the Health and Safety Supervisor i

on managing the department, and the training specialist on performing technician and all other radiation protection training. Since responsi-bilities were redistributed, but not eliminated, the staff concludes these i

changes are acceptable.

(

f The addition to the chart of a note that a Technical Support Engineer is responsible for Emergency Planning provides additional clarifying information.

No position previously shown on the chart is being eliminated. Since this l

change only involves the addition of clarifying information, it is J

acceptable.

l The position of Assistant General Manager-Power is deleted from the LACBWR facility organization chart. The responsibilities previously assigned to the Assistant General Manager-Power regarding safe operation of LAC 8WR are now held by the General Manager. Since the chart shows the 4

LACBWR Plant Superintendent has direct access to the General Manager, the staff concludes this change is acceptable.

In addition, the licensee has changed the solid line on the organization chart between the General 4

. Manager-Power and the Safety Review Committee to a dotted line. Adding the dotted line clarifies that the General Manager has communications with the safety review committee but is not the head of the committee.

The staff concludes this change provides only clarification and is, therefore, acceptable.

The designations "LS0" and "LO" following some position t'itles have been removed. The designation was not totally consistent in that some, not all, plant operators are licensed and some enaineers are licensed. Table 6.2.2-1, " Minimum Shift Crew Composition #" states the required number of licenses per shift. This table is not being changed. Additionally, Section 6.3 on Unit Staff Oualifications remains the same. Since neither the number and type of licenses needed to operate the facility, nor the unit staff qualifications are being changed, removina the designations "LS0" and "LO" from the organization chart is considered acceptable by the staff.

The staff concludes the three aforementioned LACRWR operating staff changes are acceptable.

3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

This amendment relates to changes in recordkeeping, reporting, or administrative procedures or requirements. Accordingly, this amendment meets the eliaibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(10). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b) no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.

4.0 CONCLUSION

The staff has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that: (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, and (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations and the issuance of this amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security nor to the health and safety of the public.
