May 17, 1989 Docket Nos. 50-321 i
and 50-366 I
Mr. W. G. Hairston, III Senior Vice President -
Nuclear Operations Georgia Power Company 1
P.O. Box 1295.
Birmingham, Alabama 35201
Dear Mr. Hairston:
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON AMENDMENT APPLICATION TO INCORPORATE THE PROVISIONS OF GENERIC LETTER 87-09 FOR HATCH 1
UNITS 1 AND 2 (TACs 72766 AND 72767)
The basis for accepting Specification 3.0.4-related amendments under Generic
. Letter 87-09 is predicated on two assumptions, namely,:
- 1) that the remedial measures prescribed by the Technical Specification ACTION STATEMENTS for which the exception will be granted provide a sufficient level of protection to i
permit operational mode changes and safe long-term operation consistent with the licensing basis described in the Updated Safety Analysis Reports for Hatch Units 1 and 2; and 2) that it will be the exception when plant startup commences with important safety features inoperable, irrespective of the exceptions granted in response to applications under Generic Letter 87-09.
We have reviewed the amendment application to incorporate the provisions of Generic Letter 87-09 in the Technical Specifications for Hatch Units 1 and 2, submitted by your letter of March 17, 1989.
In order, for the NRC staff to conclude that the safety basis relative to the above stated assumptions is satisfied, we request that for each proposed Technical Specification exception to be granted under Generic Letter 87-09, you affirm that remedial measures prescribed for the afft.cted ACTION STATEMENTS are consistent with the Updated Safety Analysis Report and its sopporting safety analyses.
In addition, we request that you identify and affirm those administrative controls (e.g.,
maintenance program provisions, plant operating procedures, management directives, onsite safety reviews, etc.) that have been established to limit the use of the Specification 3.0.4 exceptions granted. Your affirmation should address training necessary for ensuring that plant operators are made aware of, and are instructed to exercise the controls promulgated in limiting the use of such exceptions.
