Selection of RHR Shutdown Cooling System locations susceptible to gas accumulation is based on a review of system design information, including piping and instrumentation drawings, isometric drawings, plan and elevation drawings, and calculations. The design review is supplemented by system walk downs to validate the system high points and to confirm the location and orientation of important components that can become sources of gas or could otherwise cause gas to be trapped or difficult to remove during system maintenance or restoration. Susceptible locations depend on plant and system configuration, such as stand-by versus operating conditions.

Decay heat removal by ambient losses can be considered as, or contributing to, the alternate method capability.
Alternate methods that can be used include (but are not limited to) the Condensate/Feed and Main Steam Systems, the Reactor Water Cleanup System in the decay heat removal mode (by itself or using feed and bleed in combination with the Control Rod Drive System or Condensate/Feed System), il-l't4 a combination of an ECCS pump and a safety/relief valve7 or an inoperable but functional RHR shutdown cooling subsystem.
A.2 and A.3 With both RHR shutdown cooling subsystems inoperable, an alternate method of reactor coolant circulation must be placed into service.
This alternate method may be satisfied by placing a recirculation pump in operation.
This will provide the necessary circulation for monitoring coolant temperature.
The 1 hour Completion Time is based on the importance of the coolant circulation function.
Furthermore, verification of the functioning of the alternate method must be reconfirmed every 12 hours thereafter.
This will provide assurance of continued temperature monitoring capability.
During the period when the reactor coolant is being circulated by an alternate method (other than by one of the required RHR shutdown cooling subsystems), the reactor coolant temperature and pressure must be periodically monitored to ensure proper function of the alternate method.

This review included a review of the NRC evaluation, as well as the information provided in TSTF-566 (Reference 1 ). As described below, EGC has concluded that the justifications presented in TSTF-566 and the safety evaluation prepared by the NRC are applicable to Clinton Power Station, Unit 1, Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Units 2 and 3, James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant, LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2, Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit 2, Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3, and Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2, and justify this amendment for the incorporation of the changes to these plants TS.

2.2 Variations Some EGC plants TS utilize different numbering than the Standard TS on which TSTF-566 was based (Reference 3 and 4). Additionally, Dresden utilizes a different title and system name designation. The specific differences between the plant TS and TSTF-566 are described in Table 1. These differences are administrative and do not affect the applicability of TSTF-566 to the EGC plants TS.

3.0 REGULATORY ANALYSIS

3.1 No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination Analysis EGC requests adoption of TSTF-566, "Revise Actions for Inoperable RHR Shutdown Cooling Subsystems," which is an approved change to the ISTS, into the Clinton Power Station, Unit 1, Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Units 2 and 3, James A FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant, LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2, Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit 2, Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3, and Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2, TS.

The proposed amendment revises the TS actions applicable when a residual heat removal (RHR) shutdown cooling subsystem is inoperable.

EGC has evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment(s) by focusing on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, "Issuance of amendment," as discussed below:

1.

Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No The proposed change revises the actions to be taken when an RHR shutdown cooling subsystem is inoperable. The RHR System in the shutdown cooling mode performs the important safety function of removing decay heat from the reactor coolant system during shutdown. The RHR System in the shutdown cooling mode is not an initiator of any accident previously evaluated or assumed to mitigate any accident previously evaluated.

The design and function of the RHR System are not affected by the proposed change.

Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2.

Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated?

Response: No The proposed change revises the actions to be taken when an RHR shutdown cooling subsystem is inoperable. The proposed change does not affect the design function or operation of the RHR shutdown cooling subsystems. No new equipment is being installed as a result of the proposed change. The proposed change only affects the actions taken when an RHR shutdown cooling subsystem is inoperable, so no new failure mechanisms are created.

Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.

Page 3

ATTACHMENT 1 Description and Assessment

3.

Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No The proposed change revises the actions to be taken when an RHR shutdown cooling subsystem is inoperable. The proposed change does not change any specific values or controlling parameters that define margin in the design or licensing basis. No safety limits are affected by the proposed change. The RHR System in the shutdown cooling mode removes decay heat from the reactor coolant system during shutdown. The proposed change does not affect any design or safety limits associated with the RHR System.

Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based on the above, EGC concludes that the proposed change presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and, accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.

3.2 Conclusions In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

The proposed change would change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 CFR 20, or would change an inspection or surveillance requirement. However, the proposed change does not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed change meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).

Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed change.

Selection of RHR Shutdown Cooling System locations susceptible to gas accumulation is based on a review of system design information, including piping and instrumentation drawings, isometric drawings, plan and elevation drawings, and calculations.

The design review is supplemented by system walk downs to validate the system high points and to confirm the location and orientation of important components that can become sources of gas or could otherwise cause gas to be trapped or difficult to remove during system maintenance or restoration.

A.l. A.2. and A.3 With one of the two required RHR shutdown cooling subsystems inoperable, the remaining subsystem is capable of providing the required decay heat removal.

However, the overall reliability is reduced.

Therefore, an alternate method of decay heat removal must be provided.

With both required RHR shutdown cooling subsystems inoperable, an alternate method of decay heat removal must be provided in addition to that provided for the initial RHR shutdown cooling subsystem inoperability.

This re-establishes backup decay heat removal capabilities, similar to the requirements of the LCO.

This will provide assurance of continued temperature monitoring capability.

During the period when the reactor coolant is being circulated by an alternate method (other than by an RHR shutdown cooling subsystem), the reactor coolant temperature must be periodically monitored to ensure proper functioning of the alternate method (Required Action A.3).

The once per hour Completion Time is deemed appropriate.

Condition A is modified by a Note allowing separate Condition entry for each inoperable required RHR shutdown cooling subsystem.

This is acceptable since the Required Actions for this Condition provide appropriate compensatory actions for each inoperable required RHR shutdown cooling subsystem.

Complying with the Required Actions allow for continued operation.

A subsequent inoperable required RHR shutdown cooling subsystem is governed by subsequent entry into the Condition and application of the Required Actions.

Required Actions A.2 and A.3 are modified by Notes that clarify that the Required Actions are only applicable when both required RHR shutdown cooling subsystems are inoperable since the Condition is applicable when one or two required RHR shutdown cooling subsystems are inoperable.
