UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMISSION 1
SOUTH CAROLINA ELECTRIC & GAS COMPANY S0,U,TH CAROLINA PUBLIC SERVICE AUTHORITY DOCKET NO. 50-395 l
NOTICE OF DENIAL OF AMENDMENT TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE AND OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has denied a request by the licensee for an amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-12 issued to the South Carolina Electric & Gas Company and South Carolina Public Service Authority (the licensee) for operation of the V.C. Summer Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (the facility) located in Fairfield County, South Carolina.
The denied portion of the amendment, as proposed by the licensee, would modify the Technical Specification (TS) 4.6.1.6.1.a to utilize 21 tendons rather than 15 tendons for the 10 year surveillance and subsequent five year intervals. Currently TS 4.6.1.6.1.a contains a requirement to utilize 15 tendons for the 10 surveillance and subsequent five year intervals. The amendment was requested September 16, 1986 and supplemented August 18, 1987 and July 22 and September 29, 1988.
The Notice of Consideration of Amendment to Facility Operating License and Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination and Opportunity 1
i for Hearing of the licensee's application for the amendments was published in the FEDERAL REGISTER on November 5, 1986 (51 FR 40282).

TS 4.6.1.6.1.a presently requires that 15 tendons be sampled at the 10 year surveillance intervals and at subsequent five year intervals. The licensee had requested approval to change the requirements to 21 tendons. The staff had denied the request because the proposed change is unnecessary. There is nothing in TS 4.6.1.6.1.a which would prohibit 21 sample tendons. Such a sample size would still be in conformance with the existing TS.
Therefore, the proposed TS change was denied. The licensee was notified of the Commission's denial of this request by letter dated April 28, 1989.
By June 5, 1989, the licensee may demand a hearing with respect to the denial described above and any person whose interest may be affected by the proceeding may file a written petition for leave to intervene.
A request for a hearing or a petition for leave to intervene must by filed with the Secretary of the Commission, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555, Attention: Docketing and Service Branch, or may be delivered to the Comission's Public Document Room, 2120 L Street, N.W.
