Subject:

Proposed Technical Specification Change (License Amenstment)- Periodic Testing Requirement for Thermal Overload Protective Devices Detroit Edison previausly proposed, in Reference 2, to amend Operating License NPF-43 for the Femii 2 plant by modifying Technical Specification Surveillance ,

Requir<. ment 414.3. At that time two changes were proposed: first, to delete the requiremera tor the pedodic surveillance testing of Tnermal Overload (TOL) ',/

Devices; and second, to clarify the situational surveillance testing requirement. /

Detroit Edison believes that climination of the periodic surveillance testing is justified because there is no adverse impact on nuclear safety and a significant cost N/

savings would be realized. We are prepared to provide any additional information the staff requires to approve this request.

', o USNRC NRC-97-0092 Page 2 specification pages are enclosed which reflect alternative wording for the '

surveillance which address only the clarificatica to the situational testing requirement. This alternative wordira preserves the second part of the original change.

Detroit Edison previously evaluatcd the pioposed Technical S;weification change against the criteria of 10CFH50.92 in Reference 2 and determined that No Significant llazards Consideration is involved. The revised alternative wording now proposed is encompassed by the text in Reference 2; therefore, the previous No Significant llazards Consideration remains applicable, in accordance with 10CFR50.91(b)(1),

Detroit Edison is providing a copy of this letter to the State of Michigan.

No commitments are made in this letter. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Norman K. Peterson at (313) 586-4258.

Sincerely,
