prior to each startup or prior to preplanned shutdowns with a required frequency not to exceed once per week.
Instrument checks shall be performed at least once per day during these periods when the instruments are required to be operable.
- 3. This instrumentation is excepted from the functional test definition. The functional test will consist of injecting a simulated electrical signal into the measurement channel.
These instrument channels will be calibrated using simulated electrical signals once every three months.
- 4. Simulated automatic actuation shall be performed once each operating cycle. Where possible, all logic system functional tests will be performed using the test jacks.
- 5. Reactor low water level, high drywell pressure and high radiation main steam line tunnel are not included on Table 4.2-1 since they are tested on Table 4.1-2.

ATTACHMENT III SAFETY EVALUATION OF CHANGES RELATED TO NUREG-0578 TMI-2 LESSONS LEARNED CATEGORY "A" ITEMS POWER AUTHORITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK JAMES A. FITZPATRICK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT DOCKET NO. 50-333 October 10, 1980

l Section I - Description of Modification The James A. FitzPatrick Operating License is being amended by adding license conditions related to a System Integrity Measurements Program and Improved Iodine Measurements capability. Technical Specification Sections 3.2 (Table 3.2-6) and 4.2 (Table 4.2-6) are being changed to incorporate limiting conditions for operation and surveillance requirements for the Safety Relief Valve position indicators. Technical Specification Section 6.2 and 6.3 (including Figure 6.2-1) were revised to reflect the addition of a Shift Technical Advisor to the plant staff. These changes were requested by the NRC staff in a letter dated July 2, 1980. Figure 6.2-1 has also been corrected to more accurately reflect the Reactor Analyst's position i.e., much greater involvement with operations personnel than with Technical Services personnel.
Section II - Purpose of Modification The purpose of this modification is to incorporate the requirements of the NUREG-0578 TMI-2 Lessons Learned Category "A" items into the -
James A. FitzPatrick Operating License and Technical Specifications as requested in the NRC letter of July 2, 1980.
Section III - Impact of the Change These modifications will not alter the conclusions reached in the FSAR and SER accident analysis.
Section IV - Implementation of the Modification The modifications as proposed will not impact the ALARA or Fire Protection Program at JAF.
Section V - Conclusion The incorporation of these modifications: a) will not increase the probability nor the consequences of an accident or mal-function of equipment important to safety as previously evalu-ated in the Safety Analysis Report; b) will not increase the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the Safety Analysis Report; and
! c) will not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis l for any Technical Specification, and d) does not constitute an unreviewed safety question.
