L-91-089 Page 1 of 3 DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT RE UEST The proposed amendment revises the Turkey Point Technical Specifications to reflect (a) the undervoltage relay setpoints for the Emergency Power System (EPS) Enhancement Project, (b) adds an additional fire zone and (c) incorporates administrative changes. The description of these changes are provided below. | |||
Undervolta e Rela Set pints FPL transmitted letter L-90-68, dated July 2, 1990 describing the scope of the Emergency Power System (EPS) Enhancement Project and requesting approval of Technical Specification changes to support this project. The EPS Enhancement Project involves separating, to the extent practical, the AC electrical system for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 and adding two new Class lE Emergency Diesel Generators (EDG's). | |||
In response to the L-90-68 submittal, the NRC issued Amendment No. 138 to Facility Operating License DPR-31 and Amendment No. | |||
133 to Facility Operating License DPR-41 for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4, respectively. These amendments modified the Technical Specifications to reflect changes to the plant as a result of the EPS Enhancement Project. | |||
This proposed license amendment involves revising Table 3.3-3, items 7.b and 7.c, 480V Load Centers (LCs) undervoltage relay setpoints for instantaneous degraded voltage and inverse time degraded voltage. FPL has revised the design calculations performed in support of Amendment 138 and 133 of the Turkey Point Technical Specifications to reflect plant changes recently finalized. Recalculation was necessitated because of the replacement of MOV motors as a result of FPL actions in response to Generic Letter 89-10 (Reference 4), and the availability of final vendor data on some HVAC equipment added during the dual unit outage. These plant modifications resulted in different voltage requirements for the load centers. The assumptions and calculational methodology used in the revised calculation are consistent with those of the calculation performed to determine the existing setpoint values. | |||
Since the same undervoltage protection is afforded by the revised setpoint values, there is no significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. | |||
L-91-089 Page 2 of 3 Fire Protection S stem Changes to the Fire Protection System include (a) the addition of one fire zone to Table 3.3-6; (b) revising the number of fire detection instruments in three fire zones in Table 3.3-6; and (b) the addition of a fire hose station as listed in Table 3.7-4. | |||
(a) Table 3.3-6, Fire Detection Instruments for Essential Equipments, is revised to include one additional fire zone (Fire Zone 25A). Fire Zone 25A is a unique fire zone identifier which has been assigned to the Spare Battery Room. The two Function A type heat detectors shown for Fire Zone 25 will now be associated with Fire Zone 25A. Also the number of Function A type smoke detectors shown for Fire Zone 25 is updated from 5 to 6 ~ | |||
The additional fire zone added to Table 3.3-6 is consistent with the existing listed fire zones and provides assurance that the Spare Battery located in this fire zone will be appropriately monitored. Since different types of detection are appropriate for the Spare Battery Room and the Electrical Equipment Room within the Fire Area G, unique fire zone identifiers have been assigned to each room for convenience. To ensure that failure of a single detector does not result in a total loss of detection in the fire zone, a minimum of two detectors are required for each area. | |||
Due to modifications to the geometry of the Electrical Equipment Room, an additional smoke detector has been added in Fire Zone 25, in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 72E. | |||
Therefore, the current listing of five smoke detectors in Fire Zone 25 has been updated to six. | |||
(b) The total number of fire detection instruments listed in Table 3.3-6, Fire Detection Instruments for Essential Equipments, is revised to reflect the actual plant configuration. The actual number of Function A type smoke detectors in Zone 106, Control Room, is 16, as opposed to 17, while the total number of smoke detectors in Zone 132, Control Room Electrical Chase, is increased by two. | |||
The total number of detectors in the combined zones is consistent with the actual plant configuration and is in accordance with NFPA Standard 72E. | |||

l g | |||
L-91-089 Page 3 of 3 (c) Fire Hose Station HS-04-09, located at the entrance to the new Unit 4 EDG Building, is added to Table 3.7-4. | |||
The addition of this hose station ensures that an appropriate level of protection is provided for the new Unit 4 EDG Building, as compared to the existing Unit 3 EDG Building, for mitigating the consequences of a fire. | |||
These proposed changes do not affect the initiator of any accident evaluated in the FSAR nor the mitigation of any accident. | |||
Administrative Chan es The following administrative changes are proposed: | |||
(a) Insert the word "status" after the word "OPERABLE" in ACTION statement c of Technical Specification 3.5.2, ECCS Subsystems. Also, delete the word "OPERABLE" in ACTION statement f of TS 3.5.2. | |||
(b) In Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2, AC Sources Operating, the specified EDG loading is replaced with the acceptable loading bands, (c) In Technical Specification 3.8.3.1, (Table 3.8-2) Onsite Power Distribution, delete the word "if". Insert the word | |||
"(hours)" as presented in Tables 3.8-1 and 3.8-2. | |||
(d) In Technical Specification 3.8.3.2, Onsite Power Distribution, delete the word "in" and insert the phrase "on the same DC bus for", to achieve consistency with the same type of footnote provided for LCO 3.8.3.1. | |||
(e) In ACTION statement b of Technical Specification 3.3.3.4, Fire Detection Instrumentation, change the Table number from "Table 3.3-11" to "Table 3.3-6". (Table 3.3-11 does not exist in the Technical Specifications.) | |||
These administrative changes are considered editorial or non-technical in nature and are intended to make the Technical Specifications more consistent. | These administrative changes are considered editorial or non-technical in nature and are intended to make the Technical Specifications more consistent. | ||
ATTACHMENT 2 DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION L-91-089 | |||
A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility involves no significant hazards consideration, if operation of the facility in accordance with the 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.The basis that the proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration is provided in the following pages. | ATTACHMENT 2 DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION | ||
III L-91-089 | |||
The design calculation (Reference 3)which established the trip setpoint values provided in Amendments 138 and 133 of the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Technical Specifications, respectively, has been revised to reflect plant changes recently finalized. | L-91-089 Page 1 of 16 DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION The commission has provided standards for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists (10 CFR 50.92(c)). A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility involves no significant hazards consideration, if operation of the facility in accordance with the 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. | ||
Recalculation was necessary primarily because of the replacement of MOV motors as a result of FPL actions in response to generic Letter 89-10 (Reference 4), and the availability of final vendor data on some safety-related HVAC equipment added during the dual unit outage.These plant modifications resulted in different voltage requirements for the LCs.The assumptions and calculational methodology used in the revised calculation (Reference 5)are consistent with those of the calculation performed to determine the existing setpoint values.Since the same undervoltage protection is afforded by the revised setpoint values, there is no significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. | The basis that the proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration is provided in the following pages. | ||
2~Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. | |||
No new types of equipment are added by this change.The proposed change introduces no changes in operation or new modes of operation. | III L-91-089 Page 2 of 16 II.

L-91-089 | The design calculation (Reference 3) which established the trip setpoint values provided in Amendments 138 and 133 of the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Technical Specifications, respectively, has been revised to reflect plant changes recently finalized. Recalculation was necessary primarily because of the replacement of MOV motors as a result of FPL actions in response to generic Letter 89-10 (Reference 4), | ||
The purpose of the specified trip settings is to separate the busses from the offsite power and reenergize these same busses from the onsite power | and the availability of final vendor data on some safety-related HVAC equipment added during the dual unit outage. | ||
1 p L-91-089 | These plant modifications resulted in different voltage requirements for the LCs. The assumptions and calculational methodology used in the revised calculation (Reference 5) are consistent with those of the calculation performed to determine the existing setpoint values. Since the same undervoltage protection is afforded by the revised setpoint values, there is no significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. | ||
The additional fire zone added to Table 3.3-6 is consistent with the existing listed fire zones and provides assurance that the Spare Battery located in this fire zone will be appropriately monitored. | 2 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. | ||
As described in Reference 6, the Spare Battery Room and the Electrical Equipment Room are both within one fire area labeled as G.Originally, this whole area (formerly the Auxiliary Building Machine Shop)was labeled as Fire Zone 25.Conversion of this room into the Electrical Equipment Room and Spare Battery Room, as part of the EPS Enhancement Project, resulted in unique fire detection requirements for the equipment being monitored. | No new types of equipment are added by this change. The proposed change introduces no changes in operation or new modes of operation. The ability of the system to detect and appropriately respond to an off-normal undervoltage condition is maintained. | ||
In accordance with NUREG/CR-1798 (Reference 7), thermal detectors are to be used for detection in the battery rooms and ionization smoke detectors in the area containing the electrical equipment. | |||
Since different types of detection are appropriate for the Spare Battery Room and the Electrical Equipment. | L-91-089 Page 3 of 16 3 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. | ||
Room within the Fire Area G, unique fire zone identifiers have been assigned to each room for convenience. | The same criteria utilized in the calculation of the existing setpoints has been applied to the calculation of the revised setpoints. The purpose of the specified trip settings is to separate the busses from the offsite power and reenergize these same busses from the onsite power unacceptable voltage drop should occur on the offsite power if an system. The margin of safety provided by the new values is commensurate with the existing values since they were calculated in a similar manner. | ||
To ensure that failure of a single detector does not result in a total loss of detection in the fire zone, a minimum of two detectors are required for each area.Due to the geometry of the Electrical Equipment Room and the location of HVAC ducts, an additional smoke detector has been added in Fire Zone 25, in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)Standard 72E (Reference 8).Therefore, the current listing of five smoke detectors in zone 25 has been updated to six. | |||

L-91-089 Page 1 of 3 DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT RE UEST The proposed amendment revises the Turkey Point Technical Specifications to reflect (a) the undervoltage relay setpoints for the Emergency Power System (EPS) Enhancement Project, (b) adds an additional fire zone and (c) incorporates administrative changes. The description of these changes are provided below.
Undervolta e Rela Set pints FPL transmitted letter L-90-68, dated July 2, 1990 describing the scope of the Emergency Power System (EPS) Enhancement Project and requesting approval of Technical Specification changes to support this project. The EPS Enhancement Project involves separating, to the extent practical, the AC electrical system for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 and adding two new Class lE Emergency Diesel Generators (EDG's).
In response to the L-90-68 submittal, the NRC issued Amendment No. 138 to Facility Operating License DPR-31 and Amendment No.
133 to Facility Operating License DPR-41 for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4, respectively. These amendments modified the Technical Specifications to reflect changes to the plant as a result of the EPS Enhancement Project.
This proposed license amendment involves revising Table 3.3-3, items 7.b and 7.c, 480V Load Centers (LCs) undervoltage relay setpoints for instantaneous degraded voltage and inverse time degraded voltage. FPL has revised the design calculations performed in support of Amendment 138 and 133 of the Turkey Point Technical Specifications to reflect plant changes recently finalized. Recalculation was necessitated because of the replacement of MOV motors as a result of FPL actions in response to Generic Letter 89-10 (Reference 4), and the availability of final vendor data on some HVAC equipment added during the dual unit outage. These plant modifications resulted in different voltage requirements for the load centers. The assumptions and calculational methodology used in the revised calculation are consistent with those of the calculation performed to determine the existing setpoint values.
Since the same undervoltage protection is afforded by the revised setpoint values, there is no significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
L-91-089 Page 2 of 3 Fire Protection S stem Changes to the Fire Protection System include (a) the addition of one fire zone to Table 3.3-6; (b) revising the number of fire detection instruments in three fire zones in Table 3.3-6; and (b) the addition of a fire hose station as listed in Table 3.7-4.
(a) Table 3.3-6, Fire Detection Instruments for Essential Equipments, is revised to include one additional fire zone (Fire Zone 25A). Fire Zone 25A is a unique fire zone identifier which has been assigned to the Spare Battery Room. The two Function A type heat detectors shown for Fire Zone 25 will now be associated with Fire Zone 25A. Also the number of Function A type smoke detectors shown for Fire Zone 25 is updated from 5 to 6 ~
The additional fire zone added to Table 3.3-6 is consistent with the existing listed fire zones and provides assurance that the Spare Battery located in this fire zone will be appropriately monitored. Since different types of detection are appropriate for the Spare Battery Room and the Electrical Equipment Room within the Fire Area G, unique fire zone identifiers have been assigned to each room for convenience. To ensure that failure of a single detector does not result in a total loss of detection in the fire zone, a minimum of two detectors are required for each area.
Due to modifications to the geometry of the Electrical Equipment Room, an additional smoke detector has been added in Fire Zone 25, in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 72E.
Therefore, the current listing of five smoke detectors in Fire Zone 25 has been updated to six.
(b) The total number of fire detection instruments listed in Table 3.3-6, Fire Detection Instruments for Essential Equipments, is revised to reflect the actual plant configuration. The actual number of Function A type smoke detectors in Zone 106, Control Room, is 16, as opposed to 17, while the total number of smoke detectors in Zone 132, Control Room Electrical Chase, is increased by two.
The total number of detectors in the combined zones is consistent with the actual plant configuration and is in accordance with NFPA Standard 72E.

L-91-089 Page 3 of 3 (c) Fire Hose Station HS-04-09, located at the entrance to the new Unit 4 EDG Building, is added to Table 3.7-4.
The addition of this hose station ensures that an appropriate level of protection is provided for the new Unit 4 EDG Building, as compared to the existing Unit 3 EDG Building, for mitigating the consequences of a fire.
These proposed changes do not affect the initiator of any accident evaluated in the FSAR nor the mitigation of any accident.
Administrative Chan es The following administrative changes are proposed:
(a) Insert the word "status" after the word "OPERABLE" in ACTION statement c of Technical Specification 3.5.2, ECCS Subsystems. Also, delete the word "OPERABLE" in ACTION statement f of TS 3.5.2.
(b) In Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2, AC Sources Operating, the specified EDG loading is replaced with the acceptable loading bands, (c) In Technical Specification 3.8.3.1, (Table 3.8-2) Onsite Power Distribution, delete the word "if". Insert the word
"(hours)" as presented in Tables 3.8-1 and 3.8-2.
(d) In Technical Specification 3.8.3.2, Onsite Power Distribution, delete the word "in" and insert the phrase "on the same DC bus for", to achieve consistency with the same type of footnote provided for LCO 3.8.3.1.
(e) In ACTION statement b of Technical Specification 3.3.3.4, Fire Detection Instrumentation, change the Table number from "Table 3.3-11" to "Table 3.3-6". (Table 3.3-11 does not exist in the Technical Specifications.)
These administrative changes are considered editorial or non-technical in nature and are intended to make the Technical Specifications more consistent.
ATTACHMENT 2 DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION
L-91-089 Page 1 of 16 DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION The commission has provided standards for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists (10 CFR 50.92(c)). A proposed amendment to an operating license for a facility involves no significant hazards consideration, if operation of the facility in accordance with the 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.
The basis that the proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration is provided in the following pages.
III L-91-089 Page 2 of 16 II. EVALUATIONS TS 3 ' ' ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES ACTUATION SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION Plant Modification Changes Each of the 480V Load Centers'LCs) undervoltage relay setpoints for instantaneous degraded voltage and inverse time degraded voltage specified in Table 3.3-3, items 7.b and 7.c, respectively, are revised.
1 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not involve a significant, increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
The design calculation (Reference 3) which established the trip setpoint values provided in Amendments 138 and 133 of the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Technical Specifications, respectively, has been revised to reflect plant changes recently finalized. Recalculation was necessary primarily because of the replacement of MOV motors as a result of FPL actions in response to generic Letter 89-10 (Reference 4),
and the availability of final vendor data on some safety-related HVAC equipment added during the dual unit outage.
These plant modifications resulted in different voltage requirements for the LCs. The assumptions and calculational methodology used in the revised calculation (Reference 5) are consistent with those of the calculation performed to determine the existing setpoint values. Since the same undervoltage protection is afforded by the revised setpoint values, there is no significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
2 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
No new types of equipment are added by this change. The proposed change introduces no changes in operation or new modes of operation. The ability of the system to detect and appropriately respond to an off-normal undervoltage condition is maintained.
L-91-089 Page 3 of 16 3 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
The same criteria utilized in the calculation of the existing setpoints has been applied to the calculation of the revised setpoints. The purpose of the specified trip settings is to separate the busses from the offsite power and reenergize these same busses from the onsite power unacceptable voltage drop should occur on the offsite power if an system. The margin of safety provided by the new values is commensurate with the existing values since they were calculated in a similar manner.
1 p L-91-089 Page 4 of 16 TS 3 ' ' ' FIRE DETECTION INSTRUMENTATION LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION Plant Modification Changes On Table 3.3-6, one additional fire zone is added to the table. The additional fire zone (Fire Zone 25A) is a unique fire zone identifier which has been assigned to the Spare Battery Room. The two Function A type heat detectors shown for Fire Zone 25 will now be associated with Fire Zone 25A.
The number of Function A type smoke detectors shown for Fire Zone 25 is updated from 5 to 6. In addition, two Type B smoke detectors are added to Fire Zone 132, Control Room Electrical Chase.
Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
The additional fire zone added to Table 3.3-6 is consistent with the existing listed fire zones and provides assurance that the Spare Battery located in this fire zone will be appropriately monitored. As described in Reference 6, the Spare Battery Room and the Electrical Equipment Room are both within one fire area labeled as G. Originally, this whole area (formerly the Auxiliary Building Machine Shop) was labeled as Fire Zone 25. Conversion of this room into the Electrical Equipment Room and Spare Battery Room, as part of the EPS Enhancement Project, resulted in unique fire detection requirements for the equipment being monitored.
In accordance with NUREG/CR-1798 (Reference 7), thermal detectors are to be used for detection in the battery rooms and ionization smoke detectors in the area containing the electrical equipment. Since different types of detection are appropriate for the Spare Battery Room and the Electrical Equipment. Room within the Fire Area G, unique fire zone identifiers have been assigned to each room for convenience. To ensure that failure of a single detector does not result in a total loss of detection in the fire zone, a minimum of two detectors are required for each area.
Due to the geometry of the Electrical Equipment Room and the location of HVAC ducts, an additional smoke detector has been added in Fire Zone 25, in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 72E (Reference 8). Therefore, the current listing of five smoke detectors in zone 25 has been updated to six.
1 L-90-089 Page 5 of 16 The probability or consequences of an accident is not affected by this change. The new fire zone identifier, 25A, and the revision of the number of smoke detectors in Fire Zone 25 do not affect the initiator of any accident evaluated in the FSAR nor the mitigation of any accident.
2 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
The additional fire zone added to Table 3.3-6 is consistent with the existing listed fire zones. The resulting number of detectors indicated provide adequate fire detection capability. No new types of fire detectors are being added to the plant. The proposed change introduces no changes in operation or new modes of operation.
- 3. Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
The margin of safety remains unchanged since the additional fire zone does not affect the level of detection and warning currently provided by the existing Technical Specification requirements. The resulting number of detectors indicated are consistent with the industry standards, i.e., NFPA and NUREG/CR-1798, for providing adequate fire detection capability; thus the margin of safety is maintained.

1 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
The addition of this new Hose Station to Table 3.7-4 provides for the same OPERABILITY requirements as specified for the existing Fire Hose Stations. Note this hose station was added to Turkey Point's design per FPL's commitment in Reference 6. This additional requirement ensures that an appropriate level of protection is provided for the new Unit 4 EDG Building, as compared to the existing Unit 3 EDG Building, for mitigating the consequences of a fire.
Therefore, the probability of or consequences of losing an EDG due to a fire is not increased. This added Hose Station does not affect the initiator of any other accident evaluated in the FSAR and provides assurance that adequate fire protection is available for required plant equipment in the vicinity of the new Unit 4 EDG Building.
- 2. Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
The Hose Station at the new Unit 4 EDG, Building provides a similar degree of protection against fire-induced losses of an EDG as provided for the existing Unit 3 EDG Building.
The new Hose Station will be maintained and operated in accordance with the existing fire protection program, and therefore, will not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident. The proposed change introduces no changes in operation or new modes of operation.

1 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident, previously evaluated.
The probability of occurrence of an accident previously evaluated in the FSAR has not been affected, since the surveillance testing of EDGs does not affect the probability of occurrence of accidents. The consequences of an accident previously evaluated in the FSAR are not affected by this change either. The revisions to this surveillance footnote are proposed to enhance consistency with the rest of Turkey Point's EDG's surveillance requirements (e.g.', 4.8.1.1.2.a.5 and .g.7). The specification of load bands versus a single specific value is endorsed by the EDG vendors and the NRC.
(The NRC has endorsed a similar change for both Carolina Power and Light Shearon Harris Unit 1 and Texas Utilities Comanche Peak Unit 1.) The specified bands provide the same EDG performance assurance as the existing criteria, but minimize the wear and tear on the EDG. The specified bands preclude testing the EDGs while excessively loaded.
2 ~ Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
The revisions to the surveillance footnote are proposed to enhance consistency with the rest of Turkey Point's EDG's surveillance requirements (e.g., 4.8.1.1.2.a.5 and .g.7) and do not require any new types of testing.
