Docket No. 50-285

==SUBJECT:==
Fort Calhoun Station Unit No. 1 License Amendment Request, Revisions of Technical Specifications Table 1-1 and Section 4.0 Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) hereby transmits an application for amendment to the Fort Calhoun Station Unit 1 (FCS) Operating License.
The proposed amendment (1) revises the descriptive wording of Technical Specifications Table 1-1, RPS Limiting Safety System Settings, for the Reactor Trip setpoint for Low Steam Generator Water Level to relocate unnecessary detail, and (2) converts Technical Specifications Section 4.0, Design Features, to the content of NUREG-1432, Revision 3. Standard Technical Specifications -for Combustion Enaineerinn Plants. These changes will be needed to support operation of FCS after major components (steam generators, pressurizer, and reactor vessel head) are replaced in 2006.
The proposed Technical Specification changes have been evaluated in accordance with 10 CFR 50.91(a)(l) using criteria in 10 CFR 50.92(c); it has been determined that these changes involve no significant hazards considerations. The bases for these determinations, information supporting the change, a no significant hazards consideration, and an environmental consideration are included in the attached submittal.
Attachment 1 provides the Description of Changes and Justification. Attachment 2 provides the No Significant Hazards Evaluation and the technical bases for this requested change to the Technical Specifications. Attachment 3 contains the marked-up pages and Attachment 4 contains the clean version reflecting the requested Technical Specification and Basis changes.
OPPD requests approval of the proposed amendment by November 30, 2005. Although the proposed changes are needed to support operation after major component replacements in 2006, these changes are considered to be administrative and consistent with the current plant configuration and licensing basis; they can therefore be implemented before 2006. OPPD requests a 60 day implementation period. No commitments are made to the NRC in this letter.
Employment with Equal Opportunity                                                                            4171

4.3.1.e     FCS TS 4.3.1.e and 4.3.1.f are revised from the STS wording of unacceptable and       range to unacceptable domain to be consistent with the wording domain 4.3.1 .f    used in existing FCS TS Figure 2-10.
4.3.1.e     FCS TS 4.3.1.e is revised from the STS wording as follows: 1) Figure[3.7.18.1]
is changed to Figure 2-10 for Region 2 Unrestricted or Peripheral Cells, and 2) or in peripheral cells if acceptable for peripheral storage has been added following fuel storage racks(s), to address the additional restrictions imposed on loading of peripheral cells by existing FCS TS Figure 2-10.
4.3.1.f     FCS TS 4.3.1 .f is revised from the STS wording Figure[3.7.18.1] to Figure 2-10 for Region 2 Unrestricted or Peripheral Cells to address the additional restrictions imposed on loading of peripheral cells by existing FCS TS Figure 2-

4.3.1.2     FCS TS 4.3.1.2 is revised from the STS 4.3.1.2.c wording of keff 10.98 if moderated by aqueous foam, which includes an allowance for uncertainties as described in [Section 9.1 of the FSAR]. to the deletion of an aqueous foam related specification because FCS has no system or capability of injecting foam into the new fuel storage racks.
*-   The Commission has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists by providing certain examples in Reference 10.2 (48 FR 14864) of amendments that are considered not likely to involve significant hazards consideration. The above proposed changes are consistent with example (vii) which relates to a change to make a license conform to changes in the regulations, where the license change results in very minor changes to facility operations clearly in keeping with the regulations.

LIC-04-0117 Page 2 1.O   DESCRIPTION This letter is a request to amend Operating License DPR-40 for Fort Calhoun Station Unit No. 1.
The proposed changes would revise the operating License through administrative changes to the Fort Calhoun Station (FCS) Technical Specifications, specifically: (1) revises the descriptive wording of TS Table 1-1, W S Limiting Safety System Settings, for the Reactor Trip setpoint for Low Steam Generator Water Level to relocate unnecessary detail, and (2) converts Section 4.0, Design Features, to the Design Features content of NUREG-1432, Revision 3, Standard Technical Specifications for Combustion Engineering Plants.

==2.0   PROPOSED CHANGE==

The proposed changes will be needed to support operation of FCS after major components (steam generators, pressurizer, and reactor vessel head) are replaced in 2006.
(1) Deletion of extra setpoint description from Item 3 of Technical Specifications Table 1-1. W S Limiting Safety System Settings, The existing Trip Setpoint description for Item 3, Low Steam Generator Water Level Reactor Trip, contains a parenthetical descriptive phrase below the main setpoint description 31.2% of Scale. OPPD proposes to relocate the parenthetical phrase (Top of feedwater ring: 4 10 below normal water level) to the USAR.
The low water level trip setpoint for each replacement steam generator will remain at 3 1.2%
of scale; however, the corresponding physical location will not be consistent with the existing parenthetical description due to sizing and geometry differences.
( 2 ) Conversion of Technical Specifications Section 4.0, Design Features, to the Design Features content of NUREG- 1432. Revision 3, Standard Technical Svecifications for Combustion Engineering Plants The existing Technical Specification Section 4.0, Design Features, is being changed to be identical to the Design Features content of NUREG-1432, Revision 3, Standard Technical Svecifications for Combustion Engineering Plants, through addition of standardized descriptions of the new and spent fuel storage facilities, and removal of descriptions of the containment, reactor coolant system, reactor core and control, emergency core cooling, and seismic design for Class I systems.
The 2006 component replacements affect the RCS volume value currently in TS 4.3.1; however, rather than revising just that value, OPPD has elected to convert the whole section to Standard Technical Specifications as part of a long term Technical Specification conversion plan. The RCS volume value is not included in STS.

LIC-04-0117 Page 3 Fort Calhoun Station (FCS) proposes to change the Technical Specification (TS) conditions, specifications, and requirements, as described in Attachment 1, Description of Changes and Justification.
In summary, the proposed amendment relocates redundant steam generator setpoint description from the Technical Specifications and updates the existing Technical Specifications Section 4.0, Design Features, with text and content identical to the Standard Technical Specifications.

==3.0   BACKGROUND==

OPPD plans to replace major components (steam generators, pressurizer, and reactor vessel head) at FCS in 2006, using the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59 to the extent possible. OPPD also has a long term plan to convert the FCS Technical Specifications to Standard Technical Specifications, using a phased approach. Based on a review to determine what Technical Specification changes are needed to support operation of FCS after the major components are replaced, OPPD has determined that the changes requested in this letter are necessary. These changes are considered to be administrative and consistent with the current plant configuration; they can therefore be implemented before 2006. Engineering and safety analyses specific to the new components are ongoing; any hture License Amendment Requests resulting from these analyses will be contained in separate correspondence.

==4.0   TECHNICAL ANALYSIS==

The proposed amendment affects two separate and distinct sections of the Technical Specifications which have been evaluated for technical significance.
(1) Deletion of extra setpoint description from Item 3 of Technical Specifications Table 1- 1, RPS Limiting Safety System Settings The existing Trip Setpoint description for Item 3, Low Steam Generator Water Level Reactor Trip, contains a parenthetical descriptive phrase below the main setpoint description 3 1.2% of Scale. This parenthetical phrase is (Top of feedwater ring: 4 10 below normal water level). The specific dimension for the distance between the feedwater ring and normal water level is a historical carryover from the initial 1972 Technical Specifications which define the steam generator level water inventory that is sufficient to provide a twelve minute margin before the auxiliary feedwater is required as stated in the existing Technical Specification 1.3(5) bases section. The setpoint analyses for the replacement steam generator, currently in progress, confirm the continued use of the existing Technical Specification Low Steam Generator trip setpoint value of 31.2% of Scale. However, the physical geometry of the replacement steam generators, when installed, will be different than the original steam generators. Elimination of the parenthetical descriptive statement relocates unnecessary and duplicative detail from the Technical Specifications, has no effect on the safety functions or requirement of the reactor protection system, and has no impact upon the USAR accident analysis. Corresponding changes to the Basis and inclusion of the information in the USAR will be appropriately controlled under 50.59 criteria.

LIC-04-0117 Page 4 Because the value/dimension for the normal water level to feedwater ring distance is not currently required by 10 CFR 50.36 criteria nor is the dimension utilized in Standard Technical Specifications, the proposed relocation of the parenthetical statement is acceptable.
(2) Conversion of Technical Specifications Section 4.0, Design Features, to content of NUREG-1432. Revision 3, Standard Technical Specifications for Combustion Engineerinn Plants The existing Technical Specifications Section 4.0, Design Features, format and content is being changed to be identical to the Design Features content of NUREG-1432, Revision 3, Standard Technical Specifications for Combustion Engineering Plants through addition of standardized descriptions of the new and spent fuel storage facilities, and proposed removal of descriptions of the containment, reactor coolant system, reactor core and control, emergency core cooling, and seismic design for Class I systems. An evaluation of each of the less restrictive requirements for removal of detail and administrative changes, tabulated in Attachment I, concludes that these changes are administrative in nature because they follow the form of NRC examples for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists. These changes do not impact the USAR accident analyses.
The design of the facility is required to be described in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) by 10 CFR 50.34. In addition, the quality assurance (QA) requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 require that the plant design be documented in controlled procedures and drawings, and maintained in accordance with an NRC-approved QA plan (referenced in the USAR). Controls are specified in 10 CFR 45.59 for changing the facility as described in the USAR. Removing details of system design from the custom technical specifications is acceptable because this information will be adequately controlled in the USAR.
5.0    REGULATORY SAFETY ANALYSIS 5.1     No Significant Hazards Consideration Omaha Public Power District has evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment by focusing on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, Issuance of amendment, as discussed below:
: 1. Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?
Response: No.
The proposed changes are not related to an initiator of any previously evaluated accident. The proposed changes revise descriptive information only, and will not prevent safety systems from performing their accident mitigation function as assumed in the safety analysis.
Therefore, this change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of any accident previously evaluated.

LIC-04-0117 Page 5
: 2.      Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?
Response: No.
The proposed changes only relocate descriptive information in the Technical Specifications to the USAR. Modifications will not be made to existing equipment nor will any new or different types of equipment be installed. The proposed changes to the Technical Specifications will not alter assumptions made in safety analysis and licensing bases.
Therefore, this change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.
: 3.      Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?
Response: No.
The proposed administrative changes only relocate descriptive information in the FCS Technical Specifications to the USAR, and have no effect on safety margins.
Therefore, this technical specification change does not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.
Based on the above, Omaha Public Power District concludes that the proposed amendment presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c),
and, accordingly, a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified.
5.1    Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria The technical analysis of the proposed amendment addressed the two separate and distinct sections of the Technical Specifications. Due to their administrative nature, the proposed changes move information from the Technical Specifications and present the same or equivalent information in the USAR. This change in information location does not change or affect commitments to Fort Calhoun Station design criteria presented in the FCS USAR Appendix G, the USAR accident analyses, approved methodologies, Regulatory Guides, or NUREGs.
For the changes listed in Attachment I, Table 1: Less Restrictive Requirement -
Removal of Detail, specific technical information which does not meet the criteria of 10 CFR 50.36 for inclusion in the Technical Specifications is being moved to the USAR under the guidance of 50.59. Changes listed in Table 2: Administrative Changes meet the Commissions guidance example concerning the application of the standards for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists. The Description of

LIC-04-0117 Page 6 Changes and Justification," for the administrative changes for the proposed changes cites the appropriate NRC provided example.
The proposed changes do not alter, degrade, or prevent actions described or assumed in any accident analysis. The proposed changes will not change any assumptions previously made in evaluating radiological consequences or affect any fission product barriers, nor do they increase any challenges to safety systems. Therefore, the proposed change does not increase or have any impact on the consequences of events described and evaluated in Chapter 14 of the Fort Calhoun USAR.
In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

==6.0    ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION==

Based on the above considerations, the proposed amendment does not involve and will not result in a condition which significantly alters the impact of Fort Calhoun Station on the environment. Thus, the proposed changes meet the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR Part 5 1.22(~)(9),and, pursuant to 10 CFR Part 5 1.22(b), no environmental assessment need be prepared.
