Subject:
McGuire Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 Docket Nos. 50-369 and 50-370 Requested Technical Specifications Changes NRC Differing Professional Opinion Concerns (T.S. 3/4.3.2)
(TACS 55435 and 55436)
Gentlemen:
Attached (pursuant to 10CFR50.4 and 50.90) are license amendment requests to Appendix A, Technical Specifications, of Facility Operating Licenses NPF-9 and NPF-17 for McGuire Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2, respectively. The requested amendments correct an inadvertent error and more adequately define an Engineered Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation trip setpoint/ allowable value, add appropriate Engineered Safety Features response times, and revise an Engineered Safety Features response time. These changes result from certain concerns raised by the NRC in a Differing Professional Opinion (DPO) during review of the proposed original McGuire Units 1 and 2 combined Technical Specifications.
Attachment I contains the requested Technical Specification changes, Attachment 2 contains the justification and safety analysis to support the requested changes.
Pursuant to 10CFR 50.91, Attachment 3 provides the analysis performed in accordance with the standards contained in 10CFR 50.92 which concludes that the proposed amendments do not involve a Significant Hazards Consideration, and Duke is forwarding a copy of this amendment request application and No Significant Hazards Consideration Analysis to the North Carolina Department of Human Resources. The requested amendments have been reviewed and have been determined to have no adverse safety or environmental impact.
Note that these requested changes are in accordance with our June 10, 1986 response to the plant-specific NRC DPO concerns, which were subsequently concurred with by the NRC, and should resolve the relevant concerns. Please be advised that the FSAR revisions identified in the June 10th response (i.e.,
question nos. 4a&b, and 4c), which were also concurred with by the NRC, will be incorporated into the McGuire FSAR via the 1989 FSAR annual update. These requested Technical Specifications amendments and the upcoming FSAR update will complete all currently known Duke Power Company required actions regarding the DPO (other concerns contained in the DPO were either being considered by the NRC for generic resolution, had been closed by NRC internal review, or were still under review). It is anticipated that any other concerns will be addressed through McGuire implementation of the generic Technical Specification improvement l
efforts currently underway by industry (e.g., WOG MERITS /NRC TSIP).
