Dear Sir:

Subject:

Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station Docket No. 50-219 i

Technical Specification Change Reauest (TSCR) No. 146 Supplemental Information In response to a telephone reauest (6/26/87) from Mr. Dromerick of NRR, GPUN is submitting this supplement to our analysis concerning no significant i

hazards (item 2.C.)

The proposed TSCR #146 is an administrative change to the corporate organization, and TSCR #146 is similar to Exampic (1) of the

" Amendments not likely to Involve Significant Hazards Consid0 ration" (48FR14870, April 6,1983). As such TSCR #146 does not involve a significant hazards consideration as concluded in the attachment, Significant Hazards Determination.

If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please contact Mr.

Michael Laggart of my staff at (201)263-6205.

Very truly yours, P. R. Clark President PRC/DJ/pa(4888g)

2 "SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS DETERMINATION" l

(1)

Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an I

accident previously evaluated.

The Corporate organization was never determined to be an initiator of any accident previously evaluated in the SAR.

Even so, the probability of occurrence or the consequences for any previously evaluated accident

'j are not modified by this change as the functions and responsibilities of l

affected groups remain essentially unchanged.

(2)

Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

l The reorganization does not in itself modif y or change an operating parameter for any safety related component. Therefore, this activity does not increase the probability of occurrence or consequence of an equipment malfunction.

This activity modifies in part the Corporate organization by grouping the Nuclear Safety Assessment, Licensing and Long Range Planning functions into one Division. By this arrangement, the organization can provide an independent focus on the issue of safety, and the prioritization of plant modifications.

Furthermore, the reorganization does not change the technical resources previously established to i

perform the quality assurance, radiological & environmental control, i

training and security functions.

1 (3)

Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

]

This change does not reduce the margin of safety which was defined in j

the SAR. The reorganization was a managerial change to increase the awareness of nuclear safety within the organization by the realignment of functional responsibilities. The functions and responsibilities of i

the functional groups affected by the reorganization remain as described in the Licensing Basis Documents.
