Isolation signais A, F, and Z may be manually overridden by keylock switch on the i

Monitoring and Analysis Panel (MAP) located in the relay room.

14.

Traversing in-core Probe (TIP) penetrations are isolated by a guide tube and valve assembly which includes a solenoid operated ball valve and an explosive shear valve designed to sever and seal the TIP tubing and TIP detector helix.

15.

The explosive shear valves are not normally actuated and require replacement parts and maintenance activity in order to open the valves following actuation.

' 1 SAFETYEVALUATION REVISION 1 Page 1 of 3 1,

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES f

The proposed changes to the James A. RtzPatrick Technical Specifications revise Table 3.7-1,

" Primary Containment Isolation Valves,' and Table 4.7 2,

• Exception to Type C Testc." The l

changes are as follows:

Table 3.71, paDe 203 t

1.

Delete penetrations X 35A and X 35E.

i 2.

Revise valve numbers as follows:

Penetration From valve number To valve number t

358 07NM 104B 07SOV 104A 07NM-104B 07EV 104A 35C 07NM 1040 07SOV 1040 07NM 1040 07EV 104C

{

35D 07NM 104D 07SOV 104B l

07NM-104D 07EV 104B Table 3.71, page 209 Delete the last sentence in Note 14. The sentence to be deleted reads as follows:

"The guide tube and valve assemblies are designated 07NM 104 A, B, C, and D for

[

penetrations 35A, B, C, and D, respectively."

{

Table 4.7 2, page 211 f

1.

Delete penetration 35A.

L 2.

Penetration 35B Revise the valve number from *07NM-104B* to *07EV 104A."

Table 4.7 2, page 212 1.

Penetration 350 Revise the valve number from *07NM 104C" to *07EV 104C."

2.

Penetration 35D Revise the valve number from *07NM-104D* to *07EV 104B.*

II.

PURPOSE OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES The Traversing incore Probe (TIP) system is used to calibrate the Local Power Range Monitors

+

g (LPRMs). Durin0 the 1990 refueling outage the existing system will be replaced with a new state-L of iho-art system. The new system will improve overall TIP system reliability, availability, and L

accuracy.

I

l 1 SAFETY EVALUATION REVISION 1 Page 2 of 3 The modification replaces the four existing TIP drive units with three drive units. The helical shield cabling will be replaced with a titanium shield cable. Changing from a four channel system to a three channel system requires the use of one less contalnrnent penetration. As a result, i

penetration X 35A will be capped. The titanium shielding, which does not require a nitrogen l

i b'anket, permits the removal of the TIP system's nitrogen purge equipment. Penetration X 35E, which accommodated the TIP nitrogen purge line, will also be capped.

6 In addition, editorial changes were also made to correctly identify the containment isolation valve associated with Penetrations 358, C, and D.

1 111.

IMPACT OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES The proposed changes revise Tables 3.71 and 4.7 2 to delete two penetrations, X 35A and X 35E, which will be capped as a result of the TIP system modification. The capping of these penetrations is not a safety concern because the replacement of an active isolation valve with a j

passive barrier is a more reliab!e containment isolation method. The capped TIP penetrations will be subjected to a Type A integrated leak rate test with visual inspection prior to plant restart and periodic testing in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J.

I

)

The changes do not alter the conclusions of the plant's accident analysos as documented in the FSAR or the NRC staff's SER nor are they considered a significant hazard consideration.

IV.

EVALUATION OF SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION Operation of the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant in accordance with this proposed amendment would not involve a significant hazards consideration, as defined in 10 CFR 50.92, sinco the proposed changes would not:

1 1.

Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. The changes update Tables 3.71 and 4.7 2 in support of a plant modification which caps ponetrations X 35A and X 35E. These penetrations will be leak tcsted during the l

integrated leak rate test of the containment in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J. The capping of these penetrations do not impact the plant's accident analyses as documented in the FSAR or the NRC staff's SER.

i 2.

create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from those previously evaluated.

j l

The capping of these two containment penetrations improves containment isolation i

l because a passive barrier is less likely to fall than an active Isolation valve. These changes l

do not introduce any new active failure modes and can not create a new or different kind of

accident, 3.

Involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety. The propcsed changes cap two i

penetrations which are no longer required by the TIP system. Thece changes do not reduce the margin of safoty, since a passive barrier is a more reliablo method of containment isolation ther an active isolation valve.

IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES

(

Implementation of the proposed changes will not impact the Al. ARA Program at FitzPatrick, nor will the changes impact the environment.

VI.

CONCLUSION These changes, as proposed, do not constitute an unreviewed safety question as defined in 10 CFR 50.59. That is, they:

a.

will not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report; b.

will not increase the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type from any evaluated previously in the safety analysis report; c.

Will not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any technical specification; and l_

d.

Involves no significant hazards consideration, as delined in 10 CFR 50.92.
