DearMr.Vissing,

ByReference (a),RG&Esubmitted alicenseamendment request(LAR)tocorrectseveraltypographical errorswithintheGinnaStationImprovedTechnical Specifications (ITS).Subsequently, RG&Erequested thatthisLARbeconsidered onanexigentbasisduetothepotential todelayaplannedstartup(Reference (b)).OnMay28thand29th,conference callswereheldbetweenRG&EandNRCStaffconcerning thisLAR.Asaresultofthesecalls,severalminorchangeswererequested bytheNRCandagreeduponbyRG&E.Thesechangeswerenottechnical andwereonlyrequested toprovideadditional clarityandconsistency withinthetechnical specifications.

Inaddition, itwasnotedthatRG&EnowexpectsthatMODE2willbeenteredlateonJune3rdinsteadofJune2ndaswasoriginally documented inReference 2.'tt605310028 960529PDRADOCK05000244.,

I 0B.BACKGROUND OnFebruary24,1996,RG8cEimplemented theImprovedTechnical Specifications atGinnaStationperAmendment No.61.Sincethattime,uponuseofthenewTS,severaltypographical errorshavebeendiscovered.

Themajorityoftheseerrorsarereadilyevidentupondiscovery anddonotimpactanyoperational activities.

However,theerrorsdescribed abovewithrespecttoLCO3.3.1couldprovideconfusion andpotential incorrect application ofthenecessary requirement.

Therefore, thisLARproposestocorrecttheseerrors.SinceGinnaStationiscurrently inadefueledcondition insupportofthesteamgenerator replacement project,theerrorsarenotcurrently aproblem.However,RG&EexpectsthatGinnaStationwillenterMODE2conditions lateonJune3rdatwhichtime,theOvertemperature aTandOverpower zTreactortripfunctions mustbeOPERABLE.

Therefore, thecorrections tothef(d)descriptions forthesefunctions mustbecorrected priortoenteringMODE2.Theremaining errorwithinLCO3.3.1onlyappliestospecificsurveillances ofreactortripfunctions atpowerwhichwillnotbecomelimitinguntilseveralweekslater.C.JUSTIFICATION OPCHANGESThissectionprovidesthejustification forallchangesdescribed inSectionAaboveandshowninAttachment II.Thejustifications areorganized basedonwhetherthechangeis:morerestrictive (M),lessrestrictive (L),administrative (A),ortherequirement isrelocated C.l~AA.1Theproposedchangesdescribed inSectionAabovedonotinvolveanytechnical issues.Instead,thechangesrelatetominorerrors(e.g.,pagenumbering andtitles),providing consistency withintheTS(e.g.,noteformats),

correction ofequations thatwereincorrectly translated fromthe"old"TS,andproviding consistency withNUREG-1431 aswasoriginally intendedbyAmendment No.61.ThechangestotheOverpower andOvertemperature

Theremaining errorswereintroduced duringlastminutechangestotheTSpriortoNRCissuanceofAmendment No.61.Thisisfurtherconfirmed inthatonlyonebasespageisaffectedbythesechanges.Therefore, thecorrection oftheseerrorsisadministrative only.Therearenotanymorerestrictive (M),lessrestrictive (L),orrelocated (R)changesassociated withthisLAR.
