Acceptance Review: Arkansas Nuclear One Unit 2, License Amendment Request To Adopt TSTF-545 (CAC No. MF7535)Dave, The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has completed the acceptance review for the license amendment request (LAR) dated March 25, 2016 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML16088A186), from Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy, the licensee), for the Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) Unit 2. The LAR proposes to adopt Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Change Traveler, TSTF-545, Revision 3, ""TS Inservice Testing Program Removal & Clarify SR Usage Rule Application to Section 5.5 Testing,"" into the TSs. The proposed change eliminates Technical Specifications (TS), Section 6.5.8, "Inservice Testing Program," to remove requirements duplicated in American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code for Operations and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (OM Code), Case OMN-20, "Inservice Test Frequency," which the licensee has requested to adopt as part of this amendment request. In addition, a new defined term, "Inservice Testing Program," is added to TS Section 1.0, "Definitions." Entergy stated that the proposed changes to the TS s are consistent with TSTF-545, Revision 3.
Acceptance Review: Arkansas Nuclear One Unit 2, License Amendment Request To Adopt TSTF-545 (CAC No. MF7535)
This TS improvement is part of the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process (CLIIP) and Entergy has stated that the amendment request has no technical variances. However, the ANO-2 TSs are of an older standard version and have not been converted to the improved standard TSs (ISTSs) based on NUREG 1432, "Standard Technical Specifications - Combustion Engineering Plants," Revision 4. As such, Entergy has not requested that this amendment request be reviewed under the CLIIP. Entergy stated there are several administrative-type variations (TS numbering, wording, etc.) but these variations do not result in any technical conflict with the intent of TSTF-545, Revision 3 or the associated model SE.
