Basis for no significant hazards determination: The proposed j changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration because operation of Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit No. 1 in accordance with these changes would not:

(1) involve a significant increase in the probability of occurrence or the consequence of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated. The proposed changes are intended to comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a(g)4(1). The IST program must be updated, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(g)4(1), every 120 months to the latest edition and addenda of the Code (ASME Section XI) 7 referenced in paragraph (b) of that section twelve (12) months prior to the start of the interval. Paragraph (b) references the 1983 edition through the summer 1983 addenda. The 1983

Atttchmerit B Page 3 ASME Section XI code edition allows quarterly pump testing, however, the current surveillance requirements require pump testing on a monthly basis. The revised surveillance requirements are proposed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(g)5(ii) which states, "If a revised inservice

inspection program for a facility conflicts with the technical specifications for a facility, the licensee shall apply to the Commission for amendment of the technical specifications to conform the technical specification to the revised program".

The proposed changes incorporate applicable portions of the STS surveillance requirements and reference testing in accordance with specification 4.0.5.

In many cases, the STS surveillance requirements may not apply and have been revised to more closely reflect the plant specific design and operating requirements. The STS differ from our current surveillance requirements as described by the following:

A. The STS do not include a requirement to cycle power-

, operated or automatic valves through one complete cycle of l full travel, this is required by many of the current pump i surveillance requirements. However, this requirement need i not be included in technical specifications since all 1

safety related valves are stroked as part of the IST program.

B. The STS do not require verification of pump operation for 15 minutes; this is required by many of the current pump surveillance requirements. The pump surveillance requirements are being revised to test in accordance with ASME Section XI which requires a 5-minute pump run time, therefore, this requirement need not be included in the

surveillance requirements.

C. The STS require verification of pump differential pressure while our current surveillance requirements specify j discharge pressure verification. Plant current

surveillance requirements and procedures verify pump

! discharge pressure and differential pressure is verified

, in accordance with specification 4.0.5. The minimum

! discharge pressure will be retained to provide the minimum pump operability requirement.

The resulting surveillance requirements comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a(g)4(1) and are consistent with the 1983 edition of ASME Section XI. Therefore, the proposed changes are considered to be administrative in )

nature and do not require physical change to any plant

! safety related systems or components and the proposed changes in testing requirements will not affect the i

function or operation of safety related equipment.

i (2) create the probability for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated since the pump testing requirements have been revised to reflect the i applicable portions of the STS and provide consistency with the 1983 edition of ASME Section XI. The current pump testing i requirements already reflect many of the ASME Section XI requirements and are being revised to provide pump testing

surveillance requirements and format. consistent with the STS
by testing in accordance with specification 4.0.5. These changes do not affect the UFSAR system description or accident analyses of Section 14.

(3) involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety since none of the Bases for any of the pump specifications are affected by these changes. The equipment will continue to be

, operated in the same manner and the revised surveillance requirements provide clarification and consistency between pump test requirements and the 1983 edition of ASME Section XI.

Conclusion Based on the above, the proposed changes are administrative in 4 nature since the pump testing will be performed in accordance with I

the 1983 edition of ASME Section XI in lieu of the current 1974 edition. The function and operation of the equipment remain unchanged. Consequently, the proposed change will not result in a significant increase in the probability of occurrence or the consequence of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety, would not create an accident of a different type, and would not significantly reduce the margin of safety of the plant.

Therefore, it is proposed to characterize the proposed changes as involving a no significant hazards consideration.
