' G:neral Manager February 15, 1989 In reply, please refer to LAC-12698 DOCKET NO. 50-409 Document Control Desk U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555 Gentlemen:
SUBJECT:
Dairyland Power Cooperative (DPC)
La Crosse Boiling Water Reactor (LACBWR)
Possession-Only License No. DPR-45 Request for Changes to Technical Specification Submittal
REFERENCE:
(1) DPC Letter, LAC-12501, Taylor to Document Control Desk, dated February 22, 1988 In the letter of Reference 1, Dairyland submitted a reqreat to revise LACBWR Technical Specifications.
In the time since this submittal, it has become necessary to implement modifications to the facility which will affect values in the proposed Technical Specifications.
Specifically, the underground fuel tanks for the High Pressure Service Water'(HPSW) diesels are to be removed and replaced with new tanks located in the cribhouse.
The minimum allowable fuel inventory in each of the two storage tanks is presently stated in Technical Specification Section 5.4.2.2 as 270 gallons for diesel IA and 108 gallons for diesel 1B.
These numbers were submitted for the original Technical Specifications based on 90% of the capacity of each tank.
The revised Technical Specifications submitted in our Reference 1 letter maintained these numbers because new tanks were not being considered at the time the revision was being written.
The new indoor tanks being installed have a 265-gallon capacity each.
Dairyland proposes a Technical Specification minimum inventory of 150 gallons i
per tank.
Based on design data, the diesels consume a maximum of 10 gallons of fuel per hour. The_150-gallon minimum inventory would, therefore, allow adequate time to replenish the fuel supply from the 20,000 gallon tank located near the cribhouse, if necessary.
l The proposed change being requested at this time would be to Technical i
Specification 5.4.2.2.a on page 4-26 of the Reference I submittal. A copy of this page, with changes included, is attached to this letter.

Document Control Desk LAC-12698 Page 2 February 15, 1989 Dairyland understands that there is still much work to be done on the review of the Technical Specifications, Decommissioning Plan, and Decontamination Plan, as a thorough and complete review is a time-consuming and complex evolution.
If, however, the particular section of the existing Technical Specification stating diesel fuel tank minimum levels could be changed more expeditiously, it would allow progress to continue on upgrading the fuel supply for the HPSW Diesels and for removal of underground tanks while the weather allows.
Therefore, Dairyland also requests that the NRC review and approve a change to the existing Technical Specification 5.2.18.1.2.1 on page 97e to state 150-gallon minimums for each fuel tank as soon as possible.
An attachment to this letter shows the proposed changes.
Thank Sou for your immediate attention to this matter.
If you have any questions, please call us at (608) 689-2331.
Sincerely, DAIRYLAND POWEC COOPERATIVE
