BEFORE THE UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION In the Matter of
)
NEW YORK POWER AUTHORITY
)
Docket No. 50-333 James-A.-FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant
)
APPLICATION FOR AMENDMENT TO OPERATING LICENSE Pursuant to Section 50.90 of.the regulations of the Nuclear
-Regulatory' Commission, the New York Power Authority, as holder of Facility Operating License No. DPR-59, hereby applies for an Amendment to the Technical Specifications contained in Appendix A of this license.
The proposed amendment to the James A.
FitzPatrick Technical f
Specifications deletes section 4.3.A.2.g on page 89a and-corrects typographical errors which exist on this page.
This change will delete the surveillance requirement to manually. scram the reactor from a control rod configuration of less than or equal to 50% rod density once each operating cycle.
This requirement is intended to verify the operability of the i
scram discharge system.
However, operability is adequately
.j demonstrated by other surveillance requirements which do not involve a scram from power.
L This change is consistent with a philosophy of reducing the number of unnecessary challenges to the reactor protection system and the resulting transient.
The proposed changes to the Technical Specifications are Attachment I to the Application for Amendment to the operating License.
The Safety Evaluation for the proposed changes is included as Attachment II.
