DISCUSSION OF CHANGES TO CTS ITS SECTION 5.0 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS Au The requirements for the Containment Vessel Structural Integrity

- Specification (CTS LC0 3.6.1.6) are placed in a program in the Administrative Controls Chapter (ITS Specification 5.5.6. " Pre-Stressed Concrete Containment Tendon Surveillance Program"). The ventilation filter testing requirements for the Control Room Ventilation System Specification (CTS LC0 3.7.6), the Nonaccessible Area Exhaust Filter Plenum Ventilation System Specification (CTS LCO 3.7.7), and the Fuel Handling Building Exhaust Filter Plenum Specification (CTS LCO 3.9.12) are placed in a program in the Administrative Controls Chapter (ITS Saecification 5.5.11. " Ventilation Filter Testing Program (VFTP)").

As suc h a statement of applicability of SR 3.0.2 and SR 3.0.3 is needed to clarify that the allowances for surveillance frequency extensions do apply, since these SRs are not normally applied to frequencies ,

identified in the Administrative Controls Chapter of the Technical Specifications. Since this change is a clarification needed to maintain provisions that would be allowed in the LC0 sections of the Technical Specifications, it is considered administrative.

A3 Various ventilation filter testing requirements of CTS LCOs 3.7.6.

3.7.7. and 3.9.12. specify that testing be performed in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.52. Revision 2. Regulatory Guide 1.52. Revision 2.

references that testing be performed in accordance with the applicable sections of ANSI N510-1975. However, the CTS Bases for LCOs 3.7.6.

O 3.7.7. and 3.9.12 state that ANSI N510-1980 will be used as the procedural guidance for these surveillance tests. Consistent with the current licensing basis, the reference to ANSI N510-1980 has been added to the ITS Specification 5.5.11 requirements for performance of testing in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.52. Revision 2. This change does not involve a technical change (either actual or interpretational) to the TS. As a result, this change considered to be administrative.

An By letter dated June 17. 1997. Comed submitted a CTS License Amendment Request to add testing and reporting requirements per the applicable 10 CFR 50.55a regulations and Comed committed ASME Addenda for the Pre-Stressed Concrete Containment Tendon Surveillance Program. Comed has recently updated our commitment with respect to the subject Code requirements, requiring ITS to be revised as contained in this submittal. The clouded portions of the markup (CTS 6.8.4 and CTS 6.9.1)  !

reflect this request. Any revisions to the request as a result of the conversion to ITS are annotated and justified separately. This is an administrative change with no impact on safety because the annotations

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES TO CTS-ITS SECTION 5.0 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS An ITS Specification 5.7.1 (CTS 6.12.1) discusses requirements for high

. radiation areas. Per recent discussions with the NRC reviewer, the following statement has been added "This Specification provides alternate methods for controlling access to high radiation areas and does not' apply to very high radiation areas as defined in 10 CFR 20."

This statement is for clarity and does not change any requirements or the methods on how high radiation areas are treated in the 31 ant. Since no changes in intent or technical requirements were made, t11s change is considered to be administrative.

An ITS 5.7 (CTS 6.12) has been revised as follows. ". . . that includes specification of radiation dose rates in the immediate work area (s) and other appropriate radiation protection ecuipment and measures." This statement has been discussed and approvec by the NRC reviewer. This statement was added strictly for clarification. Since no changes in intent or technical requirements were made, this change is considered to be administrative. ,

An ITS 5.7.2.e (CTS 6.12.2) has been added and states. "Except for individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures. or personnel escorted by such individuals, entry into such areas shall be made after dose rates in the area have been determined and entry personnel are knowledgeable of them." This statement has been discussed and approved nv by the NRC reviewer. This statement was added strictly for clarification. Since no changes in intent or technical requirements were made, this change is considered to be administrative.

Au ITS 5.5.6 (CTS 6.8.4.g) provides basic requirements for the Pre-Stressed Concrete Containment Tendon Surveillance Program. The ITS Revision A Program required that the Tendon Surveillance Program, inspection frequencies, and acceptance criteria be in general conformance with Regulatory Guide 1.35. Revision 3. April 1979 and proposed Regulatory Guide 1.35.1. A)ril 1979. Due to the new requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a.

this statement 1as been revised to state. "The Tendon Surveillance Program, inspection frequencies, and acceptance criteria shall be in general conformance with requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2)(vi),

10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2)(ix). ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Subsection IWL. 1992 Edition with the 1992 Addenda and Regulatory Guide 1.35.1.

July 1990." This change is considered to be administrative since the change involves stating specific requirements that Comed has previously been committed to.

(')

v ITS SECTION 5.0 - ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS An ITS 5.6.8 (CTS 6.9.1.11) provides basic requirements for the Tendon Surveillance Report. The ITS Revision A Program required that any degradation of the containment structure detected during the tests required by the Pre-Stressed Concrete. Containment Tendon Program be reported to the NRC within 30 days. It further required that the report include a description of the tendon condition, the condition of the concrete (especially at tendon anchorages) the inspection procedures, the tolerances on cracking, and the corrective action taken. Due to the new requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a. this statement has been revised to state. ". . . shall be reported in the Inservice Inspection Summary Report in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a and ASME Section XI. 1992 Edition with the 1992 Addenda." This change is considered to be administrative since it is required for consistency with ITS 5.5.6. ITS Revision D.

M3 Not used.

Hz -CTS Section 6 has been revised to add a TS Bases Control Program description (ITS Specification 5.5.14) and a Safety Function Determination Program description (ITS Specification 5 5.15). The TS bases control program is arovided to denote the ap3ropriate methods and reviews necessary for a clange to the TS bases. T1e Safety Function Determination Program is provided to support im)1ementation of the support system Operability characteristics of t1e TS. The addition of these requirements represent a more restrictive change and is consistent with NUREG-1431 with the editorial addition to the Bases Control Program of "as modified by approved exemptions." The editorial addition is for consistency with other NUREG presentations.

M3 CTS SR 4.7.6.e.1) SR 4.7.7.d.1), and SR 4.9.12.d.1) require the performance of a pressure drop test across the combined HEPA filter and O charcoal adsorber banks of the associated ventilation systems. ITS Specification 5.5.11.d requires the same testing to be performed, but 3rovides that the testing be performed in general conformance with Regulatory Guide 1.52. Revision 2. and ANSI N510-1980. These requirements are in addition to those in the CTS, and thus represent more restrictive changes necessary to help ensure the associated ventilation systems are maintained Operable.

M, ITS 5.7.2.e (CTS 6.12.2) has been revised to state. "... entry personnel are knowledgeable of them. Individuals escorted will receive a pre-job briefing prior to entry into such areas." This is considered to be a more restrictive change since the CTS does not recuire a pre-job briefing prior to entry into such areas. This adcitional requirement has been discussed with the NRC reviewer. It was confirmed with the NRC staff that the intent is to only require an informal pre-job briefing and not require any documentation which would be subject to an audit.

C, This change is consistent with NUREG-1431. as modified by WOG-72. This change revises 5.5.4.e wording to describe the actual. intent of the dose projections. GL 89-01 provides the wording which basically combine the 2 requirements for cumulative and projected dose. This can be read to require a plant to make projected doses for the quarter and year every 31 days. It is only necessary and reasonable to make a projection for the next 31 days (and not to project the quarter and yearly dose). A cumulative dose projection would still be done for the current calendar quarter and year per the ODCM. The new proposed words are the same as pre-GL 89-01 implementation.

/ SECTION 5.0 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS PLANT SPECIFIC CHANGES (P)

P; During the development certain wording preferences. English language conventions, reformatting, renumbering. or editorial rewording consistent with plant specific nomenclature were adopted. As a result, the Technical Specifications (TS) should be more readily readable by, and therefore understandable to. plant operators and other users.

During this reformatting, renumbering, and rewording process, no ,

technical changes (either actual or interpretational) were made to the TS unless they were identified and justified.

P, ITS Specifications 5.1. 5.2. and 5.3 were revised to retain plant specific wording preferences. The second paragraph of ..

Specification 5.1.1. regarding review and approval of tests or experiments is deleted. CTS do not delineate this requirement.

Specification 5.1.2 is revised to reflect plant practice. The Shift l Manager is responsible for directing the control room command function but is not necessarily in the control room. An SR0 is in the control room and has the control room command function, when either unit is in MODE 1. 2. 3. or 4. With a common control room su] porting two unit operation, the practice is to have an individual SR0 responsible for the control room command function for g.adl unit. Specification 5.2.2.a is modified to clearly delineate CTS requirements for non-licensed O operators.

P3 ITS Specifications 5.5.4.b and 5.5.4.g are revised to retain plant specific wording preferences reflect CTS requirements. These changes are in accordance with changes approved in an SER dated December 30, 1993.

P. ITS Specifications 5.5.6. 5.5.7. and 5.5.11 are revised to clarify general conformance to the applicable Regulatory Guides. This change is necessary since the UFSAR contains plant specific exceptions to these Regulatory Guides. Thi.s eliminates the potential for misinterpretation of the licensing basis requirements. This is an editorial enhancement only and does not involve a technical change.

P,' ITS Specification 5.6.2 was revised to delete specific details of the annual radiological environmental operating report. This change is in '

accordance with changes approved in an SER dated April 13. 1992.

P. Byron and Braidwood utilize blended ASTM #1 and #2 fuel oil. Therefore references to #2 fuel oil in NUREG 5.5.13 are deleted. )
