SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING CHANGING TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION TABLE 3.2-2, " CORE & CONTAINMEN1 COOLING SYSTEM INITIATION & CONTROL H3TRUMENTAT10N OPERABILITY REQUIREMENTS" (TAC NO. M95098)
Dear Mr. Knubel:
By letter dated March 22, 1996, the Power Authority of the State of New York, the licensee for the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant, proposed to revise Technical Specification (TS) Table 3.2-2, " Core & Containment Cooling System Initiation & Control Instrumentation Operability Requirements." The proposed changes will revise allowed outage times (A0Ts) for 4kV Emergency Bus Under Voltage Trip Functions. The A0Ts for these trip functions were extended by Amendment No. 227; however, the A0T extensions for ths these trip functions were not consistent with the requirements of the Standard Technical Specifications (STS), NUREG-1433, aM liffered from the recommendations in the associated Licensing Topical Report, iditional changes are proposed to TS Table 3.2-2 and TS Table 4.2-2, " Core Containment Cooling System Instrumentation Test and Calibration uirements." These changes will (1) replace the generic actions for i erable instrument channels with function-specific actions. (2) replac..he generic test A0T with function-specific test A0Ts, and (3) relocate s lected trip functions from the TS to Authority controlled document.
The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's request and has determined that additional-information is needed regarding the request.
Included is our request for additional information:
Specify_with examples to support the following:
" Replace the generic actions for inoperable instrument channel!. with function-specific actions."
O Refer to the sections of the submittal and page numbsrs.
Be specific to show how this was accomplished.
" Replace the generic test A0T with function-specific test A0Ts."
