e ENCLOSURE 2 A.

DESCRTFTXON OF ANENDNENT RElEUEST The proposed changes would revise

-the Palo Verde Unit 1

Technical Specifications to eliminate typographical

errors, provide additional clarification, improve consistency, adjust nomenclature and bring the Technical Specifications in line with the guidance in recent Generic Letters.

It would also bring portions of the Technical Specifications into conformance with current NRC staff positions, incorporate Unit 2 information where appropriate, and make other minor changes.

B.

PURPOSE OF THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The Technical Specifications are derived from the analyses and evaluation included in the Safety Analyses Report, and amendments thereto.

The Technical Specifications include items in the following categories:

(1)

Safety limits, limiting safety system settings, and limiting control settings (2)

Limiting conditions for operation (3)

Surveillance requirements (4)

Design features (5)

Administrative controls (6) Initial notification (7)

Written reports The Technical Specifications provide the general requirements applicable to each of the above categories for the licensed facility.

C.

NEED FOR THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION AMENDMENT D.

A primary objective of the amendment request is to correct typographical

errors, provide clarification and to achieve similar Technical Specifications document.

Futhermore, the Unit 1

proposed changes have already been incorporated by the Commission into the current Unit 2

and 3

Technical Specifications as part of License No.

NPF-51 and NPF-65, respectively.

BASIS FOR NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION 1.

The Commission has provided standards for determining whether significant hazards consideration exists as stated in 10 CFR 50.92.

A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility involves no significant

hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with a

proposed amendment would not:

(1) Involve a significant increase in the

- probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2)

Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

A discussion of these standards as they relate to the amendment request follows:

Standard 1Involve a

significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

The proposed amendment does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated because the changes do not alter the current design of the facility.

The Technical Specifications are being changed to eliminate typographical

errors, provide additional clarification, improve consistency, adjust nomenclature and agree with the actual design and operations of the facility.

Based on this information it has been determined that the proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

Standard 2Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

The proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a

new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

The proposed changes do not vary, affect or provide any physical changes to the facility.

The proposed amendment only makes minor changes to improve'larification and consistency in line with the actual design and operation of the

plant, therefore, the proposed changes will not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

Standard 3Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The proposed amendment does not involve a significant, reduction in a

margin of safety because the changes do not affect the design basis of the plant.

The changes address administrative corrections, such as; provide additional clarification, improve consistency, adjust nomenclature, bring portions of the Technical Specifications 'into conformance with current NRC staff positions, incorporate Unit 2 information where appropriate, and make other minor changes.

Based on this, the changes as presente'd do not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

2.

The proposed amendment matches several of the examples given in 51 FR 7751 of amendments that do not involve a significant hazards consideration.

Specifically; (i)

A purely administrative change to a

Technical Specification, (ii) A change that constitutes an additional limitation, restriction or control not presently included in the Technical Specifications, (vi) A change which either may result in some increase to

e I

the probability or consequences of a previously analyzed accident or may reduce in some way a safety margin, but where the results of-the change are clearly within all acceptable critera with respect to the system or component specified in the standard Reveiw Plan, (vii) 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.

E.

SAFETY ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE RE(EUEST The proposed Technical Specification changes will not increase the probability of occurence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the FSAR.

These changes are in accordance with the previously evaluated design of the plant, in that the changes represent corrections to typographical

errors, additional clarification, adjustment to nomenclature and brings the Technical Specifications into conformance with the guidance in recent Generic Letters and NRC staff positions.

The proposed Technical Specifications change will not create the possibility of an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the FSAR.

No physical changes are being made to the facility and these changes only revise the Technical Specifications to reflect the actual design and operation of the plant.

The proposed Technical Specifications changes will not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specifications because the changes do not affect the design basis of the plant.

The changes eliminate typographical errors, provide additional clarification and improve consistency of the Technical Specifications.

F.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION The proposed change request does not involve an unreviewed environmental question because operation of PVNGS Unit 1 in accordance with this change would not:

1.

Result in a

significant increase in any adverse environmental impact previously evaluated in the Final Environmental Statement (FES) as modified by the staff's testimony to the Atomic Safety and Licensing

Board, Supplements to the FES, Environmental Imp'act Appraisals, or in any decisions of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board; or 2.

Result in a significant change in effluents or power levels; or 3.

Result in matters not previously reviewed in the licensing basis for PVNGS which may have a significant environmental impact.

CATEGORIES OF CHANGES The proposed changes to the Technical Specifications are similar to several examples in that they are either: administrative (i), more restrictive (ii),

are within the safety analysis (vi),

or respond to changes in regulations (vii).

The following is a description of how the proposed changes items are similar to the examples of 51 FR 7751.

(Note the items are enumerated the same as the index).

The proposed changes in the Technical Specifications for the items listed below are for eliminating typographical errors, correcting punctuation, pagination and additional clarification.

They are encompassed by the Commission's example (i) of actions not likely to involve significant hazards considerations.

The proposed changes are items:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 53, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 74, 79, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 97, 98, 99,

204, 205,

208, 192, and 210.

Proposed changes 35, 96,

115, 126 and 207 introduce additional operational controls and restrictions, surveillance testing and verification requirements, and more restrictive ACTION items than those presently included in the Technical Specification.

These proposed changes are thus similar to example (ii) of 51 FR 7751 in that they provide additional restrictions and controls not presently included in the Technical Specifications.

The proposed changes presented in items:

20, 52, 54, 73, 75, 76, 77, 78, 80,

101, 127,

134, 142,

145, 157,

189, 203, 211 and 212 constitute changes to previously analyzed occurences, but the results of the changes are clearly within all acceptable criteria with respect to the system or the component as described in the safety analysis.

The proposed changes are thus similar to example (vi) of 51 FR 7751 of actions not likely to involve a significant hazards consideration.

The proposed changes presented in items:

103, 119,

144, 159,

160, 162,

206, and 209 constitute changes made to conform to change in the regulations and are thus similar to example (vii) of 51 FR 7751 of actions not likely to involve a

significant hazards consideration.

All of the above changes have already been incorporated by the Commission into the current Unit 2 Technical Specifications issued with full-power license NPF-51 and into the Unit 3 low power license NPF-65.

Incorporation of these same changes into Unit 1

Technical Specification will upgrade the specifications and make them essentially equivalent in terms of content, style and format.

1 A.

DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT RE<EUEST The proposed change in the Technical Specification (Sections Table 3.3-6, Table 3.3-13, 6.5.3.5.1, 6.16, and Index) is to delete the administrative controls which require the Pre-Planned Alternate Sampling Program (PASP) to be approved by the Regional Administrator, Region V, prior to its implementation, and to delete the Technical Specification administrative controls imposed on the PASP.

B.

PURPOSE OF THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION The purpose of this specification is to ensure that sufficient information is available on selected plant parameters to monitor and assess given variables.

C.

NEED FOR THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION AMENDMENT Technical Specification 6.16 currently requires that the PASP be approved by the Regional Administrator prior to implementation, and that the PASP and its implementing procedures be audited at least once per 24 months.

These requirements are redundant in nature in that the PASP has a review process for approval and procedures at PVNGS are periodically audited.

D.

BASIS FOR NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION 1.

The Commission has provided standards for determining whether a

significant hazards consideration exists as stated in 10 CFR 50.92.

A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with a proposed amednment would not: (1) Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2)

Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3)

Involve a

significant reduction in a margin of safety.

A discussion of these standards as they relate

'to the amendment request follows:

Standard 1Involve a

significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated because the proposed amendment does not alter the current design of the facility.

The Technical Specifications are being changed to delete the administrative controls that are listed in section 6.16 which require in part that the PASP be approved by the Regional Adminisitrator, prior to implementation.

Based on this, it has been determined that the proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

Standard 2Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

~

"~

The proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a

new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated because this change does not vary, affect or provide any physical changes to the facility.

The proposed change only revises the Technical Specifications to delete the administrative controls imposed on the Pre-Planned Alternate Sampling Program.

Deleting these controls will in no way affect the PASP as it is already covered under plant procedures, based on this information, the change will not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

Standard 3Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The requested amendment does not involve a significant reduction in a

margin of safety because this change does not affect the design basis of the facility. It would only take the administrative controls for the PASP out of the Technical Specifications and place the controls with the plant procedures.

The PASP will not change as result of this proposed amendment. Based on these considerations, we have determined that the proposed change 'does not involve a significant hazards consideration.

2.

The proposed amendment matches one of the examples given in 51 FR 7751 of amendments that do not involve a

significant hazards consideration.

Specifically, the proposed amendment is a change to achieve consistency (Example i) throughout the Technical Specifications.

E.

SAFETY ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE ~RE HEST The proposed Technical Specification change will not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the FSAR.

This change is in accordance with the standard Technical Specifications and will only delete the Technical Specification administrative controls over the PASP.

The proposed Technical Specification change will not create the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the FSAR.

No physical changes are being made to the facility and the change only deletes those specifications which are covered in other documents.

The proposed Technical Specification change will not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification.

The basis for the PASP is to ensure that sufficient information is available on selected plant parameters to monitor and assess given variables.

F.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION The proposed change does not involve an unreviewed environmental question because operation of PVNGS Unit 1 in accordance with this change would not:

1.

Result in a

significant increase in any adverse environmental impact previously evaluated in the Final Environmental Statement (FES) as modified by the staff's testimony to the Atomic Safety and Licensing

Board, Supplements to the FES, Environmental Impact Appraisals or in any

ATTACHMENT 2 A.

DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT RE(EUEST The proposed amendment request would modify Technical Specifications 3.4.7, 4.4.7, 6.9.1.5 and B 3/4.4.7 by changing the requirements from a Licensee Event Report to a Special Report for operating conditions where the specific activity limits of the reactor coolant are exceeded.

Also, the existing requirements to shutdown a plant if coolant iodine activity limits are exceeded for 800 hours0.00926 days <br />0.222 hours <br />0.00132 weeks <br />3.044e-4 months <br /> in a 12-month period are to be eliminated.

B.

PURPOSE OF THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION The limitations on the specific activity of the primary coolant ensure that the resulting 2-hour doses at the site boundary will not exceed an appropriately small fraction of Part 100 - limits following.

a steam generator tube rupture accident in conjunction with an assumed steady state primary-to-secondary steam generator leakage rate of 1.0 gpm and a concurrent loss-of-offsite electrical power.

The values for the limits on specific activity represent limits based upon a

parametric evaluation by the NRC of typical site locations.

These values are conservative in that specific site parameters of the Palo Verde

site, such as site boundary location and meterorological conditions, were not considered in this evaluation.

C.

NEED FOR THE SPECIFICATION AMENDMENT Generic Letter 85-19, Reporting Requirements on Primary Coolant Iodine

Spikes, dated September 27, 1985; states that "A Technical Specification amendment request should be submitted to the NRC for each facility which currently has Technical Specification reporting requirements upon exceeding coolant iodine activity limits or which has a requirement to shut down after 800 hours0.00926 days <br />0.222 hours <br />0.00132 weeks <br />3.044e-4 months <br /> with iodine above the limit." In an effort to delete unnecessary reporting requirements we have followed the guidance of the Generic Letter.

D.

BASIS FOR NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION 1.

The commission has provided standards for determining whether a

significant hazards consideration exists as stated in 10 CFR 50.92.

A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with a proposed amendment would not: (1) Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2)

Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3)

Involve a

significant reduction in a margin of safety.

A discussion of these standards as they relate to the amendment request follows:

Standard 1Involve a

significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the

~

~ ~, ~

probability or consequences of an accident p

iously evaluated because the proposed change does not alter the current design of the facility.

The Technical Specifications are being changed as part of a continuing program to delete unnecessary reporting requirements.

The staff has

..reviewed the reporting requirements related to primary coolant specific activity levels and specifically primary coolant iodine spikes, and have have determined that the reporting requirements for iodine spiking can be reduced from a short-term report to an item which is to be included in the Annual Report.

Therefore, this change does not involve a

significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

Standard 2Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

The proposed amendment will not create the possibiity of a

new of different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated because the proposed amendment does not vary, affect or provide any physical changes to the facility.

This proposed change only revises the Technical Specification coolant iodine activity limit which is considered no longer necessary on the basis that proper fuel management by licensees and existing reporting requiremetns should preclude ever approaching the limit.

For these reasons it has been determined that the proposed amendment does not create the possiblity of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

I Standard 3Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The requested amendment does not involve a significant reduction in a

margin of safety because the proposed change does not affect the design bases for the plant.

The existing requirements to shutdown a plant if coolant iodine activity limits are exceeded for 800 hours0.00926 days <br />0.222 hours <br />0.00132 weeks <br />3.044e-4 months <br /> in a 12-month period can be eliminated because the quality of nuclear fuel has been greatly improved with the result that normal coolant iodine activity (ie.

in the absence of iodine spiking) is well below the limit.

Approporiate actions would be initiated long before accumulating 800 hours0.00926 days <br />0.222 hours <br />0.00132 weeks <br />3.044e-4 months <br /> above the iodine activity limit. In addition, 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(1)(ii) requires the NRC to be immediately notified of fuel cladding failures that exceed expected values or that are caused by unexpected factors.

For these reasons, it has been determined that the change does not involve a

significant reduction in the margin of safety.

2.

The proposed amendment matches one of the examples given in 51 FR 7751 of amendments that do not involve a

significant hazards consideration.

Specifically, the proposed amendment is 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 (Example vii).

E.

SAFETY ANALYSTS OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE RE(EUEST The proposed Technical Specification change will not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the FSAR.

This change is in

accordance with th eviously evaluated design of plant.

Generic letter 85-19 dated September 27, 1985 provided guidance on Technical Specification revisions required's the result of the revisions to 10 CFR 50.72 and of implementation of 10 CFR 50.73.

Thus, this change is in accordance with the original plant design.

/

The proposed Technical Specification change will not create the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the FSAR.

No physical changes are being made to the plant and this change only revises the Technical Specifications to reflect a regulatory change.

The proposed Technical Specification change will not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specifications.

The basis for Technical Specifications 3.4.7 incorporates the limitations on the specific activity of the primary coolant to ensure that the resulting 2-hour doses at the site boundary will not exceed an appropriately small fraction of part 100 limits following a steam generator leakage rate of 1.0 gpm and a

concurrent loss-of-offsite electrical power.

This change does not affect these bases since assurance is provided in that the quality of nuclear fuel has been greatly improved with the result that normal coolant iodine activity (ie.

in the absence of iodine spiking) is well below the limit.

And appropriate actions would be initiated long before accumulating 800 hours0.00926 days <br />0.222 hours <br />0.00132 weeks <br />3.044e-4 months <br /> above the iodine activity limit.

In addition.

10 CFR 50.72 (b)(l)(ii) requires the NRC to be immediatley notified of fuel cladding failures that exceed expected values or that are caused by unexpected factors.

F.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION The proposed change request does not involve an unreviewed environment question because operation of PVNGS Unit 1 in accordance with this change would not:

1.

Result in a

significant increase in any adverse environmental impact previously evaluated in the Final Environmental Statement (FES) as modified by the staff's testimony to the Atomic Safety and Licensing

Board, Supplements to the FES, Environmental Impact Appraisals.

or in any decisions of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board; or 2.

Result in a significant change in effluents or power levels; or 3.

Result in matters not previously'eviewed in the licensing basis for PVNGS which may have a significant environmental impact.
