SUBJECT:
VOGTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 3 AND 4 ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENTS RE: TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION 3.3.13 FOR MAIN CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY HABITABILITY SYSTEM (VES)
INSTRUMENTATION APPLICABILITY CHANGE AND INCLUDE UNDERVOLTAGE ACTUATION (LAR 20-003) (EPID L-2020-LLA-0101)
Dear Mr. Whitley:
In response to your application dated May 7, 2020, as supplemented by letter dated June 22, 2020, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued the enclosed Amendment Nos. 184 and 182 to Combined License (COL) Nos. NPF-91 and NPF-92 for the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Units 3 and 4, respectively. The requested amendments consist of changes to COL Appendix A, Technical Specifications (TS) and Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR).
Specifically, the amendments authorize changes to the following COL Appendix A, TS: TS 3.3.13, Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) Main Control Room (MCR)
Isolation, Air Supply Initiation, and Electrical Load De-energization applicability is revised to exclude operability of the MCR Air Supply Iodine or Particulate Radiation - High 2 function when the MCR envelope is isolated and the MCR emergency habitability system (VES) is operating; TS 3.3.13 is revised to include Class 1E 24-Hour Battery Charger Input Undervoltage actuation signals for VES actuation and de-energization of the MCR air supply radiation monitoring sample pumps; and TS 3.8.1, DC Sources - Operating, and TS 3.8.2, DC Sources - Shutdown, are revised to include a Surveillance Requirement to verify each MCR air supply radiation monitoring sample pump de-energizes on an actual or simulated actuation signal. The amendments also authorize certain changes to the UFSAR that involve these TS changes.
B. Whitley A copy of the related Safety Evaluation, which includes the staffs evaluation of the amendments, is enclosed. The notice of issuance of the amendment documents included in this letter will be published in the Federal Register.
Sincerely,
/RA/
