BEAVER VALLEY - UNIT 2 3/4 4-14 PROPOSED WORDING
 
4 ATTACHMENT B Safety Analysis Beaver Valley Power Station Proposed Technical Specification Change Unit 1 Change No. 148 Unit 2 Change No. 3 Description of amendment request:
The proposed amendment would incorporate the following administrativo changes:
1.
Page 3/4 2-2 for BV-1 and BV-2, surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b is being revised to clarify the one-half minute penalty deviation for Axial Flux Difference.(AFD) requirements between 15%
and 50%
Rated Thermal Power (RTP) to reflect the basis for this specification described in the bases and the Standard Technical Specification (STS).
BV-1 and BV-2 surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b states:
One half minute penalty deviation for each one minute of POWER OPERATION outside of the target band at THERMAL POWER levels below 50%
of RATED THERMAL POWER.
STS surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b states:
One-half minute penalty deviation for each 1 minute of POWER OPERATION outside of the target band at THERMAL POWER levels between 15%
and 50%
of RATED THERMAL POWER.
BV-1 and BV-2 and STS Bases states:
For THERMAL POWER levels between 15%
and 50%
of RATED THERMAL POWER, deviations of the AFD outside of the target band are less significant.
The penalty of 2 hours actual time reflects this reduced significance.
Therefore, surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b will be replaced in the BV-1 and BV-2 technical specifications by STS surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b to provide consistency with the bases and the STS.
This is an administrative change and will not affect the BV-1 FSAR, the BV-2 FSAR or any regulatory basis.
2)
Page 3/4 3-16a, page 3/4 3-16 is being deleted from the BV-1 technical specifications since this is a blank page, therefore, page 3/4 3-16a will be re-numbered to 3/4 3-16.
This is an editorial change and will not affect the BV-1 FSAR or any regulatory basis.
 
O ATTACHMENT B Page 2 3)
Page 3/4 4-10a for BV-1 surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.a and 4.4.5.5.b will be revised to require reporting the steam generator tube inspection results to the Commission in a Special Report.
Page 3/4 4-4 for BV-2, Surveillance Requirement 4.4.5.5.a will be revised to require reporting the steam generator tube inspection results to the Commission in a Special Report.
BV-1 and BV-2 surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.a currently requires reporting within 15 days but does not state the type of report required.
BV-1 surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.b currently requires reporting in accordance with the Annual Operating Report which is no longer provided.
To clarify the reporting requirements for steam generator tube inservice inspection
: results, these surveillance requirements will be replaced with 4.4.5.5.a and 4.4.5.5.b from the STS which requires reporting the steam generator tube inservice inspection results to the Comraission in a Special Report.
This is an administrative change and will not affect the BV-1
: FSAR, the BV-2 FSAR or any regulatory basis.
4)
Page 6-23 for BV-1 administrative control section 6.9.2 will be revised by adding item j,
Steam Generator Tube Inservice Inspection
: Report, to the list of Special Reports.
This is consistent with BV-2 Section 6.9.2.
This reflects the change to page 1/4 4-10a for BV-1 and page 3/4 4-14 for BV-2 which incorpocates the STS special reporting requirements.
This is an administrative change and will not affect the BV-1 ~FSAR, the BV-2 FSAR or any regulatory basis.
 
ATTACHMENT C No Significant Hazards Evaluation Beaver Valley Power Station Proposed Technical Specification Change Unit 1 Change No. 148 Unit 2 Change No. 3 Basis for no significant hazards consideration determination:
The Commission has provided standards for determining whether a significan:
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; (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 proposed changes do not involve a
significant hazards 1
consideration because:
1)
Surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b is being revised to reflect the STS to clarify the AFD requirements between 15% and 50% RTP.
Page 3/4 3-16a for BV-1 is being re-numbered with page number 3/4 3-16 since this is currently a blank page and can be deleted.
Surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.a and 4.4.5.5.b are being revised to reflect the STS reporting requirements for steam generator tube inspection results.
Item j for BV-1 and Item k for BV-2 is being added to administrative control section 6.9.2 i'
to include the special report for steam generator tube inspection results.
These are administrative changes that will not affect the FSAR system descriptions or accident analyses and therefore will not involve a
significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
2)
These changes are administrative in nature since only clarification is provided to reflect the STS and no change to equipment or components or the FSAR accident analysis is required.
Thus, no adverse safety considerations are introduced by the proposed changes.
Therefore, the probability for an accident or a
malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated will not be created.
3)
The proposed changes provide clarification of the AFD surveillance requirements between 15% and 50% RTP and reflect the STS reporting requirements for steam generator tube inspection results.
These changes are consistent with the technical specification bases and will not affect any safety analysis or design basis which would involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.
1 4
 
.l
~~ ATTACHMENT C Page 2 The commission has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists by providing certain examples (51 FR 7751) of snendments that are considered not likely to involve significant hazards consideration.
Example (i) relates to "A purely administrative change to technical specifications:
for
: example, a change to achieve consistency throughout the technical specifications, correction of an
: error, or a
change in nomenclature".
The proposed change relates to this example in that the proposed changes are requested to achieve consistency throughout the technical specifications by providing clarification of the AFD surveillance requirements between 15%
and 50%
RTp and incorporating the STS reporting requirements for the steam generator tube inspection results.
Therefore, based on the above considerations, it is proposed to characterize the change as involving no significant hazards consideration.

BEAVER VALLEY - UNIT 2 3/4 4-14 PROPOSED WORDING

4 ATTACHMENT B Safety Analysis Beaver Valley Power Station Proposed Technical Specification Change Unit 1 Change No. 148 Unit 2 Change No. 3 Description of amendment request:

The proposed amendment would incorporate the following administrativo changes:

1.

Page 3/4 2-2 for BV-1 and BV-2, surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b is being revised to clarify the one-half minute penalty deviation for Axial Flux Difference.(AFD) requirements between 15%

and 50%

Rated Thermal Power (RTP) to reflect the basis for this specification described in the bases and the Standard Technical Specification (STS).

BV-1 and BV-2 surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b states:

One half minute penalty deviation for each one minute of POWER OPERATION outside of the target band at THERMAL POWER levels below 50%

of RATED THERMAL POWER.

STS surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b states:

One-half minute penalty deviation for each 1 minute of POWER OPERATION outside of the target band at THERMAL POWER levels between 15%

and 50%

of RATED THERMAL POWER.

BV-1 and BV-2 and STS Bases states:

For THERMAL POWER levels between 15%

and 50%

of RATED THERMAL POWER, deviations of the AFD outside of the target band are less significant.

The penalty of 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> actual time reflects this reduced significance.

Therefore, surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b will be replaced in the BV-1 and BV-2 technical specifications by STS surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b to provide consistency with the bases and the STS.

This is an administrative change and will not affect the BV-1 FSAR, the BV-2 FSAR or any regulatory basis.

2)

Page 3/4 3-16a, page 3/4 3-16 is being deleted from the BV-1 technical specifications since this is a blank page, therefore, page 3/4 3-16a will be re-numbered to 3/4 3-16.

This is an editorial change and will not affect the BV-1 FSAR or any regulatory basis.

O ATTACHMENT B Page 2 3)

Page 3/4 4-10a for BV-1 surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.a and 4.4.5.5.b will be revised to require reporting the steam generator tube inspection results to the Commission in a Special Report.

Page 3/4 4-4 for BV-2, Surveillance Requirement 4.4.5.5.a will be revised to require reporting the steam generator tube inspection results to the Commission in a Special Report.

BV-1 and BV-2 surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.a currently requires reporting within 15 days but does not state the type of report required.

BV-1 surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.b currently requires reporting in accordance with the Annual Operating Report which is no longer provided.

To clarify the reporting requirements for steam generator tube inservice inspection

results, these surveillance requirements will be replaced with 4.4.5.5.a and 4.4.5.5.b from the STS which requires reporting the steam generator tube inservice inspection results to the Comraission in a Special Report.

This is an administrative change and will not affect the BV-1

FSAR, the BV-2 FSAR or any regulatory basis.

4)

Page 6-23 for BV-1 administrative control section 6.9.2 will be revised by adding item j,

Steam Generator Tube Inservice Inspection

Report, to the list of Special Reports.

This is consistent with BV-2 Section 6.9.2.

This reflects the change to page 1/4 4-10a for BV-1 and page 3/4 4-14 for BV-2 which incorpocates the STS special reporting requirements.

This is an administrative change and will not affect the BV-1 ~FSAR, the BV-2 FSAR or any regulatory basis.

ATTACHMENT C No Significant Hazards Evaluation Beaver Valley Power Station Proposed Technical Specification Change Unit 1 Change No. 148 Unit 2 Change No. 3 Basis for no significant hazards consideration determination:

The Commission has provided standards for determining whether a significan:

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; (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 proposed changes do not involve a

significant hazards 1

consideration because:

1)

Surveillance requirement 4.2.1.2.b is being revised to reflect the STS to clarify the AFD requirements between 15% and 50% RTP.

Page 3/4 3-16a for BV-1 is being re-numbered with page number 3/4 3-16 since this is currently a blank page and can be deleted.

Surveillance requirement 4.4.5.5.a and 4.4.5.5.b are being revised to reflect the STS reporting requirements for steam generator tube inspection results.

Item j for BV-1 and Item k for BV-2 is being added to administrative control section 6.9.2 i'

to include the special report for steam generator tube inspection results.

These are administrative changes that will not affect the FSAR system descriptions or accident analyses and therefore will not involve a

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

2)

These changes are administrative in nature since only clarification is provided to reflect the STS and no change to equipment or components or the FSAR accident analysis is required.

Thus, no adverse safety considerations are introduced by the proposed changes.

Therefore, the probability for an accident or a

malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated will not be created.

3)

The proposed changes provide clarification of the AFD surveillance requirements between 15% and 50% RTP and reflect the STS reporting requirements for steam generator tube inspection results.

These changes are consistent with the technical specification bases and will not affect any safety analysis or design basis which would involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.

.l

~~ ATTACHMENT C Page 2 The commission has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards for determining whether a significant hazards consideration exists by providing certain examples (51 FR 7751) of snendments that are considered not likely to involve significant hazards consideration.

Example (i) relates to "A purely administrative change to technical specifications:

for

example, a change to achieve consistency throughout the technical specifications, correction of an
error, or a

change in nomenclature".

The proposed change relates to this example in that the proposed changes are requested to achieve consistency throughout the technical specifications by providing clarification of the AFD surveillance requirements between 15%

and 50%

RTp and incorporating the STS reporting requirements for the steam generator tube inspection results.

Therefore, based on the above considerations, it is proposed to characterize the change as involving no significant hazards consideration.
