-Improved Technical Specifications, Supplement 8 TAC Nos. M98964 and M98965 A proposed license amendment request to convert the McGuire current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the McGuire. Improved Technical Specifications (ITS) was submitted by letter dated May 27, 1997 and amended by letters dated March 9, 1998, March 20, 1998, April 20, 1998, June 3, 1998, June 24, 1998, July 7, 1998

.and July 21, 1998 in response to NRC requests for additional information.

The ITS submitted in the above letters was provided separately for each unit, consistent'with the CTS.

Prior to license amendments 166/148, the' CTS for each unit was in a combined volume.

The CTS was separated by.these amendments into individual' volumes for each unit in support of the steam generator replacement effort.

Based on feedback from'the plant operators and other users, Duke Energy is requesting that the approved ITS be issued in a single combined volume as discussed in the me'eting with NRC on July 10, 1998.

There are only a small number of differences between the two units and these are predominately figures or setpoints.

The steam generator replacement has been completed and maintaining the ITS in a combined volume will facilitate ease of use and signific.antly reduce the volume of paper that must be processed

)

and controlled.

The combined ITS versions of the pages where i

there are differences between the two units are provided in.

All'other ITS pages previously submitted are the

.same for both units and are unchanged.

l of this letter.provides the changes necessary to ITS Section 3.0.

.The proposed changes require that the specifications and surveillance apply to each unit individually,
