CFR 50.59 process. The Technical Specifications for " Coolant Ct emistry" contain i

specifications for reactor coolant specific activity, conductivity, and chloride coricentration.

This amendment will relocate the specifications for reactor coolarat conductivity and chloride concentration and retain the specification for reactor caolant specific activity.

I The specifications for reactor coolant conductivity and enloride concentration do not meet I

l any of the screening criteria for retention in the Technical Specifications in accordance with l

the Commission's " Final Policy Statement on Technical Specifications improvement for l

Nuclear Power Plants" (Reference 1). Also, the removal of these specifications is consistent with NUREG-1433, " Standard Technical Specifications - General Electric Plants, l

BWR/4." A similar TS amendment was approved on February 22,1996 for the Public Service Electric and Gas Company's Salem Generating Station Units 1 and 2 (Reference 2).
