Reason for Chance Per References a) & b) above, a review of transient analysis input parameters has shown that a value of 50 milli-seconds has been used for the Reactor Protection System delay time. This Technical Specification change is requested to assure com-patibility-between the Technical Specification and the transient analyses. Please note that measurements made at Pilgrim Station have shown the response time is actually less than 50 milli-seconds and therefore current transient analyses using this value are conservative with respect to the measured values.

Dear Sir:

Pursuant to Section 50.90 of the Commission's Rules and Regulations, Boston Edison Company proposes the following modification to Specification 3.1, Appendix A of Operating License No. DPR-35. The desired change would consist of replacing the current value of 100 milli-seconds for the Reactor Protection System response time (from the opening of the sensor contact up to and including the opening of the trip actuator contacts) with a new value of 50 milli-seconds.

Reason for Chance Per References a) & b) above, a review of transient analysis input parameters has shown that a value of 50 milli-seconds has been used for the Reactor Protection System delay time. This Technical Specification change is requested to assure com-patibility-between the Technical Specification and the transient analyses. Please note that measurements made at Pilgrim Station have shown the response time is actually less than 50 milli-seconds and therefore current transient analyses using this value are conservative with respect to the measured values.
