11) Specification 6.5.1, Plant Review Committee (PRC) - revised to reflect the currently proposed charter. The function of the PRC (Section 6.5.1.1) is revised to show that the PRC advises the AGM, Nuclear Power Production and the MSRC on matters related to nuclear safety. The 4

composition of the PRC consists of personnel who meet or exceed the I qualifications of ANSI N18.1-1971. The responsibilities are amended to specify a review of procedures' safety evaluations rather than actual procedures. A similar change is made with respect to proposed plant l l changes and modifications. Specification 6.5.1.3 addresses PRC j membership and the selection of an alternate chairman in the absence of the chairman.

A Safety Functions of Affected Systems / Components No plant safety systems are involved in Proposed Amendment 138, Rev. 2. All changes to Technical Specifications incorporated by this amendment are j administrative or organizational in nature, j l Effects on Safety Functions All changes to be incorporated by Proposed Amendment 138, Rev. 2 are administrative in nature and have no effect on any plant system safety function. ) Analysis of Effects on Safety Functions Subsequent to the original submittal of Proposed Amendment 138.and the ] submittal of revision 1 to Proposed Amendment 138, there have been further organization changes made. by the District, both on site and at the corporate office. These changes have resulted in both revised and new position titles 4 and organization groups. Revision 2 to Proposed Amendment 138 consists of the changes listed in the DESCRIPTION.section of the Safety. Analysis. All of.the changes are administrative or organizational in nature, and none have an effect on the functioning of any plant safety system. Most of the listed changes are editorial in nature or reorganize the Technical Specifications into a more logical context. However, the eight items discussed below involve changes in content or stated responsibilities. Item 5 elevates the position of the person responsible. for the overall-management of Rancho Seco facility from the Manager of Nuclear Operations to the Chief Executive Officer, Nuclear. :This change upgrades the authority and ~ qualifications of the individual ~ responsible for the operation of the facility, and the health and safety of the public. Item 7 places the authority to deviate from the required staffing and shift coverage (discussed in Section 6.2.2 of Technical Specifications) in the AGM, Nuclear Power Production, or his/her designee. Once again, this position (AGM) requires a higher level of qualification and authority than the individual who is currently listed as having authority to deviate from the listed guidelines. This change will enhance the safety of the conduct of operations throughout the Rancho Seco facility. Item 8 changes Table 6.2-1, Shift Crew Personnel and Licensing Requirements. This change is a regulatory requirement which brings Rancho'Seco in accord with 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(1). This table specifies the control room staffing, levels (for licensed personnel and STAS only) for the reactor modes of ColdL ' Shutdown and Above Cold Shutdown. This change is an enhancement to plant safety. L

,e ATTACHMENT IV (CONT.) FACILITY CHANGE SAFETY ANALYSIS PAGE 5 0F 6 PROPOSED AMENDMENT NO. 138, REY. 2 Analysis of Effects on Safety Functions (Cont.) Item 11 changes Specification 6.5.1, Plant Review Committee (PRC) to reflect the overall increase in authority incorporated throughout Section 6.0 of Technical S 3ecifications. This is demonstrated in the requirement for the PRC to advise t1e AGM, Nuclear Power Production, rather than the Manager of Nuclear Operations, as is done presently. Members of the PRC shall be personnel filling positions within the Nuclear Organization shown in Fig. 6.2-2 and others, all of whom meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of ANSI N18.1-1971. The PRC Chairman shall be appointed by AGM, Nuclear Power Production. An alternate list shall also be approved by AGM, Nuclear Power Production. Item 12 changes Specification 6.5.2, Management Safety Review Committee (MSRC) to reflect the overall increase in authority incorporated throughout Section 6.0 of Technical Specifications. This is demonstrated in the proposed membership of the MSRC. Presently, the MSRC consists of supervisors or managers from the various departments at Rancho Seco; Proposed Amendment No. 138 will require MSRC membership to be made up of manager levels or above. Other personnel may also serve as MSRC members, however, they must meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of ANSI /ANS 3.1-1981. The MSRC Chairman shall be appointed by the CEO, Nuclear. The responsibility for the performance of audits of facility activities shall be under the cognizance of the Director, Quality Assurance, Nuclear instead of the MSRC. This is shown i in the new Section 6.5.4, Audits. The MSRC shall review the QA program and perform an oversight review of the QA Audit Program. This change in the QA i program requires a change to Appendix 128 of the USAR. 10 CFR 50.54(a)(3) requires a report to the NRC concerning this USAR change, and approval by the NRC before implementation. Item 14 adds Section 6.5.3, Technical Review and Controls. Section 6.5.3 iiescribes a new review and approval process for procedures, tests and experiments, plant modifications, and any plant activity which affects nuclear safety. The introduction of this rigorous review and approval by the AGM, Nuclear Power Production or his/her designated alternate (at least department manager) will enhance the safety of operations throughout the Rancho Seco facility. The section also specifies that the individuals performing the stated reviews are qualified to meet, or exceed, the requirements of Section 4.4 of ANSI 18.1, 1971. Item 20 adds a section which defines the requirements for environmental reports. This section is currently in Appendix B to Technical Specifications. Proposed Amendment 104 deletes Appendix B. This section includes requirements specifying:

1) when a report is required, 2) the contents of the report, and 3) to whom the reports are to be submitted.

Item 21 defines more clearly the method by which changes to the radioactive waste systems (liquid, gaseous, and solid) shall be made. This includes the information to be sent to the Commission discussing each change at each annual update of the USAP. \\

The eight items which change the content or responsibilities in Sectior,6.0 of Technical Specifications promote and enhance the safety of the conduct of l operations throughout the facility. Summary k Proposed Amendment 138, Revision 2 makes changes to Section 6.0, i ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS, of Rancho Seco Technical Specifications. D)ght of the listed changes have an fmpact upon the responsibilities or authority as delineated in Section 6.0 of Technical Specifications. New positions, as 1 shown in the Proposed Amendment, are more reflective of the broader management j oversight with respect to Rancho Seco. 1 The Proposed Amendment affects USAR Section 12.2, Organization and Responsibility, and Section 12.6, Review and Audit of Operations. i Additionally, the Proposed Amendment impacts Appendix 128 (Quality Assurance 9 l Program), which requires a report on the changes to the qualf.ty assurance program to be submitted to the NRC for approval of the change prior to implementation. T 1 The Proposed Amendment increases control room, licensed operator staffing levels to meet the requirements to 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i). The other changes discussed in the analysis increase the level of reporting requirements of the. a subject administrative positions and committees or are changes which arc editorial in nature. The Proposed Amendment does not increase the probability of occurrence or ] consequences of a previously evaluated accident since the levei. of authority,., of the positions or committees addressed in Section 6.0 are increased.

Proposed Amendment No.e138 was originally submitted to the NRC for approval on i October 18, 1985. Subsequently, it was superseded by the submittal of Proposed-Amendment No. 138, Rev. I dated August 13, 1986. The present submittal, Proposed Amendment,No. 138, Rev. 2, incorporates further changes to management staffing at the lancho Seco Nuclear Generating Station and the corporate office which were made'6yjthe District subsequent to the Rev. 1 submittal. Proposed Agendment No. 139, Rev. 2 consists of many changes to Section'6, p~ Administrative Centrols, of the Rancho Seco Technical Specifications. Most of these. result in higher levels of management review and approval d responsibilities on issues affecting safe. operation and reliability of the lk i j plant. Further changes assign plant auditing responsibilities to the Quality Assurance Department, with audit report reviews being made the responsibility of the Management Safety Review Committee. ) Basically, the proposed changes increase the level of experience and' qualifications of management personnel and of members of the review committees, I i.e., the Plant Review Committee and the Management Safety Review Committee. { i The District has reviewed the proposed changes to Section 6 of.the Technical J Specifications against each of the criterion of 10 CFR 50.92, and concluded that plant operation with the above administrative changes would not: , b '(ncr' ease the probability of occurrence or consequences of a previously 1 evaluated accident, because the level of qualifications and experience of g the positions or corrittees responsible for plant safety are increased. P I 2. Create the propabHitpof an accident of a different type than previously evaluated, because the safe operation of the plant is enhances by the 1 l higher level of management qualifications and experience. 3. Significantly reduce any margin of safety, because all levels of oversight of conduct of operation at Rutho Seco are increased. / On the basis of the above, the District concludes that the proposed changes do not constitute a significant haard, or in any way endanger the health and safety of the public.
