ITS 5.1 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.1, RESPONSIBILITY ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Unit 3 and Unit 4, Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1431, Rev. 5.0, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 CTS 6.1 does not contain any information concerning the Plant Managers (or his designees) role in plant activities that affect nuclear safety. ITS 5.1 contains a requirement that directs the plant manager or his designee to approve, prior to implementation each proposed test, experiment, or modification to systems or equipment that affect nuclear safety. This changes the CTS by requiring the plant manager or his designee to approve certain activities to systems and equipment, prior to implementation, that affect nuclear safety.
CTS 6.1 provides the responsibilities for the plant manager and shift manager.
The proposed change adds an additional requirement for the plant manager (or his designee) to approve, prior to implementation, proposed tests, experiments, and modifications to systems or equipment that affect nuclear safety. The addition of this responsibility will not alter any of the existing responsibilities. It is being added to ensure the plant manager is cognizant of those activities associated with plant systems or equipment that can potentially affect nuclear safety. This change is designated as more restrictive because it adds an additional responsibility for the plant manager in the Administrative Controls Chapter of the TS.

REVIEWER'S NOTES---------------------------------------
- 1. Titles for members of the unit staff shall be specified by use of an overall statement referencing an ANSI Standard acceptable to the NRC staff from which the titles were obtained, or an alternative title may be designated for this position. Generally, the first method is preferable; however, the second 1 method is adaptable to those unit staffs requiring special titles because of unique organizational structures.
- 2. The ANSI Standard shall be the same ANSI Standard referenced in Section 5.3, Unit Staff Qualifications. If alternative titles are used, all requirements of these Technical Specifications apply to the position with the alternative title as apply with the specified title. Unit staff titles shall be specified in the Final Safety Analysis Report or Quality Assurance Plan. Unit staff titles shall be maintained and revised using those procedures approved for modifying/revising the Final Safety Analysis Report or Quality Assurance Plan.
6.1.1 5.1.1 The plant manager shall be responsible for overall unit operation and shall delegate in writing the succession to this responsibility during his absence.
The plant manager or his designee shall approve, prior to implementation, each proposed test, experiment or modification to systems or equipment that affect nuclear safety.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.2, ORGANIZATION ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Unit 3 and Unit 4, Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1431, Rev. 5.0, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS). This includes the adoption of generic titles used in the ISTS.
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 6.2.1.a requires the organizational charts to be documented in the Quality Assurance (QA) Topical Report and updated in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(a)(3). ITS 5.2.1.a contains the requirement for the organizational charts to be documented in the QA Topical Report but does not specifically require it to be updated in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(a)(3). This changes the CTS by not stating in ITS Section 5.0 to update the organizational charts located in the QA Topical Report per the Code of Federal Regulations.
This change is acceptable because the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) is law and requires changes to the QA program be performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54. Thus, the requirement shall be followed whether documented in the ITS Administrative Control Section or not. This change is acceptable because the organizational charts will continue to be located in the QA Topical Report and will continue to be updated per the 10 CFR 50.54. This change is considered administrative since there will be no changes in the requirement to update the QA programs in accordance with the code of federal regulations.
A03 CTS 6.2.1.d and CTS 6.2.1.e allow the individuals that train the operating staff (6.2.1.d), the individuals who carry out QA functions (6.2.1.d) and health physics individuals (6.2.1.e) to report to the appropriate onsite manager but have sufficient organizational freedom to be independent from operating pressure or, in the case of health physics supervisor, have direct access to the onsite individual having responsibility for overall unit management. In addition, CTS 6.2.1.e states that health physics personnel shall have the authority to cease any work activity when worker safety is jeopardized or in the event of unnecessary personnel radiation exposures. ITS 5.2.1.d states that the individuals who train the operating staff, carry out health physics, or perform quality assurance functions may report to the appropriate onsite manager; however, these individuals shall have sufficient organizational freedom to ensure their independence from operating pressures. The ITS retains the requirement to comply with 10 CFR 50.54 and the Nuclear Fleet Industrial Safety Program states that each employee shall have "Stop Work Authority" if the individual observes unsafe working conditions or behaviors. This change is considered administrative since there will be no changes in the requirement for these individuals to have sufficient organizational freedom to be independent from operating pressure and to stop work if unsafe working conditions or behaviors are observed.
Turkey Point Unit 3 and Unit 4 Page 1 of 6
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.2, ORGANIZATION A04 CTS 6.2.2.a, which refers to Table 6.2-1, requires an individual (Shift Technical Advisor (STA)) to provide advisory technical support to the unit operations shift crew and to be specifically be manned in MODES 1, 2, 3, or 4. ITS 5.2.2.e requires an individual to provide advisory technical support to the unit operations shift crew but is revised to eliminate reference to the STA position, when the position must be manned, and the details of who may fill the STA role for both units. This changes the CTS by eliminating the inference that the STA role is a separate shift crew position instead of a function.
The purpose of the CTS requirement is to ensure engineering expertise is available on shift to provide advisory technical support. NRC Generic Letter (GL) 86-04, "Policy Statement on Engineering Expertise on Shift," promulgated the policy statement regarding engineering expertise on shift and established the requirements for eliminating the separate STA position. The NRC policy statement offers the licensees two options for meeting the NUREG-0737, "Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements," Enclosure 3, Item I.A.1.1, requirement regarding engineering expertise on shift and meeting licensed operator staffing requirements pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2). Option 1 provides for elimination of the separate STA position by allowing licensees to combine one of the required SRO positions with the STA position into a dual-role (SRO/STA) function. Option 2 allows a licensee to continue use of an NRC-approved STA program while meeting licensed operator staffing requirements. Per the policy statement, the Commission encourages licensees to move toward the dual-role (SRO/STA) function, with the eventual goal of the shift supervisor serving in the dual role. Additionally, Item I.A.1.1 of NUREG-0737, Enclosure 3, allows the individual providing advisory technical support function to serve more than one unit at a multiunit site if qualified to perform the advisor function for the various units.
ITS 5.2.2.e eliminates the title of "Shift Technical Advisor (STA)," because the on-shift advisory technical support function may be fulfilled by one or more of the other on-shift individuals. This change is necessary so that it does not imply that the STA and the shift manager must be different individuals. As a result of eliminating the STA "position," it is unnecessary to state when the STA "position" must be manned. In addition, Item I.A.1.1 of NUREG-0737, Enclosure 3, allows the individual providing advisory technical support to serve more than one unit at a multiunit site if qualified to perform the advisor function for the various units and there is no regulatory requirement that conflicts with this statement. Therefore, it is unnecessary to restate this as an allowance in the Technical Specifications and does not prevent PTN from utilizing this allowance. This change is designated as administrative because an individual with engineering expertise (i.e., dedicated individual or dual role individual) will continue to be required on shift and this same individual may provide support to both units as allowed by NUREG-0737. Therefore, the change does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A05 CTS 6.2.2.e, in part, includes a description of who specifically may provide advisory technical support to the unit operations shift crew: either a dedicated STA, a shift manager who meets the qualifications for the STA as required by Technical Specification 6.2.3.1, or an individual assigned to the unit with a Senior Turkey Point Unit 3 and Unit 4 Page 2 of 6
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.2, ORGANIZATION Reactor Operator's license who meets the qualifications for the STA as required by Technical Specification 6.2.3.1. ITS 5.2.2.e requires an individual to provide advisory technical support to the unit operations shift crew but is revised to eliminate the details of who is qualified to assume the duties. This changes the CTS by eliminating details regarding the individual assigned to provide technical advisory support to the unit operations shift crew.
The purpose of the CTS requirement is to ensure engineering expertise is available on shift to provide advisory technical support. NRC GL 86-04 promulgated the policy statement regarding engineering expertise on shift and established the requirements for eliminating the separate STA position. The NRC policy statement allowed for the elimination of the separate STA position by allowing licensees to combine one of the required SRO positions with the STA position into a dual-role (SRO/STA) function. The policy statement indicates that either a dedicated STA, a Shift Supervisor who meets the qualifications, or an individual assigned to the unit with a Senior Reactor Operator's license who meets the qualifications may serve the dual-role function.
It is an ITS convention to not include cross-references to comply with other Specification requirements. Compliance with other Specifications is understood.
Compliance with CTS 6.2.3.1 (ITS 5.2.2.e) is required and referencing this Specification is unnecessary. This change is designated as administrative because an individual with engineering expertise and appropriate qualifications will continue to be required on shift. Therefore, the change does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A06 CTS 6.2.1.a states, in part, that lines of authority, responsibility and communication shall be established and defined from the highest management levels through intermediate levels to, and including all operating organization positions. Those relationships shall be documented and updated, as appropriate, in the form of organizational charts. These organizational charts will be documented in the Quality Assurance Topical Report. ITS 5.2.1.a provides a similar requirement however, states, in part, that these requirements shall be documented in the QA Topical Report (QATR) or the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). This changes the CTS by allowing the requirements of CTS 6.2.1.a to be documented in the UFSAR in addition to the QATR.
A purpose of CTS 6.2.1.a is to state the location that specific organizational relationships are documented in. CTS 6.2.1.a states that these relationships are to documented in the QATR. ITS 5.2.1.a states that these requirements including the plant-specific titles of those personnel fulfilling the responsibilities of the positions delineated in these Technical Specifications shall be documented in the QATR or the UFSAR. This change is acceptable because changes in the UFSAR or the QATR are done using the normal UFSAR or QATR change process that includes reviews to determine if NRC approval is required and providing the NRC with an update of changes made. This change is considered administrative because there are no changes in the technical requirements only in the location of the documentation.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.2, ORGANIZATION designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because specific unit staffing requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAP, CLRT Program, IST Program, ISI Program, or Surveillance Frequency Control Program) The following changes are being proposed in CTS Section 6.2.2.
- CTS 6.2.2.a contains a Table with the minimum shift crew composition.
ITS does not contain this Table but refers to the minimum shift crew requirements Table in 10 CFR 50.54. This changes the CTS by moving the CTS minimum shift crew composition table out of Technical Specifications.
- CTS Table 6.2-1 includes a note providing an allowance for the shift crew composition to be one less than the minimum requirements of Table 6.2-1. ITS replaces CTS Table 6.2-1 staffing requirements with 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i) and ITS 5.2.2.a and ITS 5.2.2.e. This changes the CTS by changing the CTS minimum shift crew composition reference from the table to 10 CFR 50.54 and the appropriate ITS specifications.
- CTS 6.2.2.c contains requirements to have at least two licensed Operators in the control room during reactor startup, scheduled reactor shutdown, and during recovery from reactor trips and to have one licensed senior reactor operator in the control room during MODE 1, 2, 3, and 4. ITS 5.2.2 does not contain this requirement. This changes the CTS by moving this requirement out of Technical Specifications.
- CTS 6.2.2.e requires that all CORE ALTERATIONS shall be observed and directly supervised by either a licensed senior reactor operator or licensed senior reactor operator limited to fuel handling who has no other concurrent responsibilities during this operation. ITS 5.2.2 does not contain this requirement. This changes the CTS by moving this requirement out of Technical Specifications.
The removal of these requirements from the Technical Specifications Administrative Controls Section is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications in order to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS retains the requirement to comply with 10 CFR 50.54 which contains these requirements. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of details will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is controlled under 10 CFR 50.59, which ensures changes are evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because specific unit staffing requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.

This individual shall meet the qualifications specified by the 198 5 NRC Policy Statement on Engineering Expertise on Shift.
Unit 5.3 6.3 FACILITY STAFF QUALIFICATIONS 5.3.1 6.3.1 Each member of the facility staff shall meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of ANSI N18 .1-1971 for comparable positions, except for A01 radiation protection manager 5.3.1 6.3.1.1 The Health Physics Supervisor who shall meet or exceed the qualifications of Regulatory Guide 1.8 , September 1975. The staff not covered by Regulatory Guide 1.8 shall meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of Regulations, Regulatory Guides, or ANSI Standards acceptable to NRC staff.

6.3.1.4 The Multi-Discipline Supervisors who shall meet or exceed the following requirements:
- a. Education: Minimum of a high school diploma or equivalent LA01
- b. Experience: Minimum of four years of related technical experience, which shall include three years power plant experience of which one year is at a nuclear power plant

5.3.2 6.3.3 For the purpose of 10 CFR 55.4, a licensed Senior Reactor Operator and a licensed reactor operator are those individuals who, in addition to meeting the requirements of 6.3.1.3, perform the functions described in 10 CFR 50.54(m) 6.4 DELETED 6.5 DELETED 6.6 DELETED 6.7 DELETED TURKEY POINT - UNITS 3 & 4 6-4 AMENDMENT NOS. 268 AND 263 Page 1 of 1
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS SECTION 5.3, UNIT STAFF QUALIFICATIONS ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Unit 3 and Unit 4, Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1431, Rev. 5.0, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS). This includes the adoption of generic titles used in the ISTS.
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 6.3.1.2 and 6.3.1.3 provide specific requirements for the operations manager and licensed operators, respectively, pointing to other Specifications or regulations. ITS 5.3.1 does not include these requirements. This changes the CTS by deleting explicit administrative requirements for these positions.
The purpose of CTS 6.3.1.2 and 6.3.1.3 is to ensure the subject individuals meet minimum requirements. The requirement for the operations manager (or assistant operations manager - reference L01 of ITS Section 5.2) to hold a senior reactor operator license (CTS 6.3.1.2) is contained in ITS 5.2.2.d.
CTS 6.3.1.3 refers to 10 CFR 55 with respect to licensed operator requirements.
Because compliance with 10 CFR 55 is required, it is unnecessary to reference this within the ITS. Individuals that fill the subject positions will continue to meet necessary requirements. This change is considered administrative since there will be no changes to the requirements that must be met for these individuals.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES None RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAP, CLRT Program, IST Program, ISI Program, or Surveillance Frequency Control Program) CTS 6.3.1.4 provides minimum education, experience, and training requirements for multi-discipline supervisors. ITS 5.3.1 does not include these requirements. The minimum education, experience, and training requirements for multi-discipline supervisors are moved to the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). This changes the CTS by moving an administrative requirement to the UFSAR.
Turkey Point Unit 3 and Unit 4 Page 1 of 2
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS SECTION 5.3, UNIT STAFF QUALIFICATIONS The removal of this requirement from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is administrative and not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS retains minimum qualification requirements for members of the facility staff for comparable positions as defined in ANSI N18.1-1971 or Regulatory Guide 1.8, as appropriate. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the UFSAR.
The UFSAR is controlled under 10 CFR 50.59 which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because administrative requirements in Technical Specifications are being relocated from the Technical Specifications to the UFSAR.
LA02 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAP, CLRT Program, IST Program, ISI Program, or Surveillance Frequency Control Program) CTS 6.3.1.1 provides minimum qualifications for the Health Physics Supervisor. CTS 6.3.2 provides an exception to these minimum qualifications. ITS 5.3.1 does not include specific detail regarding exceptions to qualifications but states, "The staff not covered by Regulatory Guide 1.8 shall meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of Regulations, Regulatory Guides, or ANSI Standards acceptable to NRC staff." As such, the ITS provides guidance with respect to exceptions to qualifications. Therefore, the details associated with exceptions to Health Physics Supervisor qualifications are relocated to the UFSAR. This changes the CTS by moving an administrative requirement to the UFSAR.

REVIEWER'S NOTE-------------------------------------------------
Minimum qualifications for members of the unit staff shall be specified by use of an overall qualification statement referencing an ANSI Standard acceptable to the NRC staff or by 1
specifying individual position qualifications. Generally, the first method is preferable; however, the second method is adaptable to those unit staffs requiring special qualification statements because of unique organizational structures.
6.3.1 5.3.1 Each member of the unit staff shall meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of
[Regulatory Guide 1.8, Revision 2, 1987, or more recent revisions, or ANSI 2 ANSI N18.1-1971, Standard acceptable to the NRC staff]. [The staff not covered by Regulatory Guide 1.8 shall meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of Regulations, Regulatory Guides, or ANSI Standards acceptable to NRC staff]. 3 6.3.3 5.3.2 For the purpose of 10 CFR 55.4, a licensed senior reactor operator (SRO) and a licensed reactor operator (RO) are those individuals who, in addition to meeting the requirements of Specification 5.3.1, perform the functions described in 10 CFR 50.54(m).
except for the radiation protection manager who shall meet or exceed 3 the qualifications of Regulatory Guide 1.8, September 1975.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.4, PROCEDURES ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Unit 3 and Unit 4, Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1431, Rev. 5.0, "Standard Technical Specifications-Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 ITS 5.4.1.e requires written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained for programs specified in Specification 5.5. The CTS does not include this requirement for any program except the OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL and the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Program. This changes the CTS by adopting a new requirement for procedures to address programs described in ITS Section 5.5.
The purpose of ITS 5.4.1.e is to ensure that written procedures are established, implemented, and maintained covering programs specified in ITS Section 5.5.
This change is acceptable because it requires written procedures, including proper procedure control, to address programs required by ITS Section 5.5. This change is designated as more restrictive because it imposes new administrative requirements for procedures within the Technical Specifications.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, NQAP, CLRT Program, IST Program, or ISI Program) CTS 6.8.1.c requires that written procedures for the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP) be established, implemented, and maintained. ITS 5.4.1 does not include these requirements. This changes the CTS by moving the requirements to the Updated Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR).
The removal of these details, which are related to meeting Specification requirements, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The PCP implements the requirements of 10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 61, and 10 CFR 71 and written procedures are necessary to ensure compliance with regulations. Regulations Turkey Point Unit 3 and Unit 4 Page 1 of 2
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.4, PROCEDURES provide an adequate level of control for the affected requirements, and thus, inclusion of this requirement in the Technical Specifications is not necessary.
Also, this change is acceptable because these details will be adequately controlled in the UFSAR. Any changes to the UFSAR are made under 10 CFR 50.59 or 10 CFR 50.71(e), which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because details for meeting Technical Specification and regulatory requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, NQAP, CLRT Program, IST Program, or ISI Program) CTS 6.8.1.e and g require written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the Quality Control Program for effluent and environmental monitoring, respectively, "using the guidance in Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 1, 1974, and Regulatory Guide 4.1, Revision 1, April 1975." ITS 5.4.1.c does not include the Regulatory Guide references. This changes the CTS by moving the references to the regulatory guides to the UFSAR.
The removal of these details, which are related to meeting Technical Specification requirements, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement for written procedures covering quality assurance for effluent and environmental monitoring. Also, this change is acceptable because these details will be adequately controlled in the UFSAR. Any changes to the UFSAR are made under 10 CFR 50.59 or 10 CFR 50.71(e), which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because references for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.

- 1. Changes are made (additions, deletions, and/or changes) to the Improved Standard Technical Specifications (ISTS) that reflect the plant specific nomenclature, number, reference, system description, analysis, or licensing basis description.
- 2. The ISTS contains bracketed information and/or values that are generic to all Westinghouse vintage plants. The brackets are removed, and the proper plant specific information/value is provided. This is acceptable since the information/value is changed to reflect the current licensing basis.
- 3. ISTS 5.4.1.d is deleted consistent with Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Unit 3 and Unit 4 Current Licensing Basis (CTS). PTN Units 3 and 4 transitioned to a risk-informed, performance-based Fire Protection Program (FPP) in accordance with National Fire Protection Association Standard NFPA 805 pursuant to 10 CFR 50.48(c). This transition was approved May 28, 2015 as issued in License Amendments 262 and 257, for Unit 3 and Unit 4 respectively. As stated in the NRC Safety Evaluation supporting the license amendments, the administrative requirement that procedures be established, implemented, and maintained for FPP implementation is contained in regulations 10 CFR 50.48(a),
10 CFR 50.48(c), and NFPA 805 Chapter 3. The NRC staff concluded that maintaining a procedure requirement for Fire Protection Program implementation in the Technical Specifications is redundant to the NFPA 805 requirement to establish FPP procedures, and as such, is unnecessary. Therefore, ISTS 5.4.1.d is not included in the Improved Technical Specifications (ITS). The list in ITS 5.4.1 has been relabeled, as applicable.

The number and portions of the tubes inspected and methods of inspection shall be performed with the objective of detecting flaws of any type (e.g., volumetric flaws, axial and circumferential cracks) that may be present along the length of the tube, from the except for any portions of the tube tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet to the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet, that are exempt from inspection by alternate repair criteria, and that may satisfy the applicable tube plugging criteria. The portion of the tube below 18.11 inches from the top of the tubesheet is excluded from inspection. The tube-to-tubesheet weld is not part of the tube. In addition to meeting the requirements of d.1, d.2, and d.3 below, the inspection scope, inspection methods, and inspection intervals shall be such as to ensure that SG tube integrity is maintained until the next SG inspection. A degradation assessment shall be performed to determine the type and location of flaws to which the tube may be susceptible and, based on this assessment, to determine which inspection methods need to be employed and at what locations.
- 1. Inspect 100% of the tubes in each SG during the first refueling outage following SG installation.
INSERT 1 L01
- 2. After the first refueling outage following SG installation, inspect each SG at least every 48 effective full power months or at least every other refueling outage (whichever results in more frequent inspections)*. In addition, the minimum number of tubes inspected at each scheduled inspection shall be the number of tubes in all SGs divided by the number of SG inspection outages scheduled in each inspection period as defined in a, b, and c below. If degradation assessment indicates the potential for a type of degradation to occur at a location not previously inspected with technique capable of detecting this type of degradation at this location and that may satisfy the applicable tube plugging criteria, the minimum number of locations inspected with such a capable inspection technique during the remainder of the inspection period may be prorated. The fraction of locations to be inspected for this potential type of degradation at this location at the end of the inspection period shall be no less than the ratio of the number of times the SG is scheduled to be inspected in the inspection period after the determination that a new form of degradation could potentially be occurring at this location divided by the total number of times the SG is scheduled to be inspected in the inspection period. Each inspection period defined below may be extended up to 3 effective full power months to include a SG inspection outage in an inspection period and the subsequent inspection period beings at the conclusion of the included SG inspection outage.
a) After the first refueling outage following SG installation, inspect 100% of the tubes during the next 120 effective full power months. This constitutes the first inspection period; b) During the next 96 effective full power months, inspect 100% of the tubes.
This constitutes the second inspection period; and c) During the remaining life of the SGs, inspect 100% of the tubes every 72 effective full power months**. This constitutes the third and subsequent inspection periods.

- One-time extension for Unit 3 to perform SG inspections during the Cycle 32 refueling outage in Fall 2021.
- One-time extension of the 4th inspection period for Unit 3 until the Cycle 32 refueling outage in Fall 2021.

L01 INSERT 1 After the first refueling outage following SG installation, inspect 100% of the tubes in each SG at least every 54 effective full power months, which defines the inspection period. If none of the SG tubes have ever experienced cracking other than in regions that are exempt from inspection by alternate repair criteria and the SG inspection was performed with enhanced probes, the inspection period may be extended to 72 effective full power months. Enhanced probes have a capability to detect flaws of any type equivalent to or better than array probe technology. The enhanced probes shall be used from the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet to the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet except any portions of the tube that are exempt from inspection by alternate repair criteria. If there are regions where enhanced probes cannot be used, the tube inspection techniques shall be capable of detecting all forms of existing and potential degradation in that region.

- 3. If crack indications are found in any portion of a SG tube not excluded above, then the next inspection for each affected and potentially affected SG for the be at the next refueling outage, but may degradation mechanism that caused the crack indication shall not exceed 24 be deferred to the following refueling effective full power months or one refueling outage (whichever results in more outage if the 100% inspection of all SGs was performed with enhanced probes as frequent inspections). If definitive information, such as from examination of a described in paragraph d.2. pulled tube, diagnostic non-destructive testing, or engineering evaluation indicates that a crack-like indication is not associated with a crack(s), then the indication need not be treated as a crack.
L01
- e. Provisions for monitoring operational primary-secondary leakage.
5.5.15 k. Control Room Envelope Habitability Program A Control Room Envelope (CRE) Habitability Program shall be established and implemented to ensure that CRE habitability is maintained such that, with an OPERABLE Control Room Emergency Ventilation System (CREVS), CRE occupants can control the reactor safely under normal conditions and maintain it in a safe condition following a radiological event, hazardous chemical release, or a smoke challenge. The program shall ensure that adequate radiation protection is provided to permit access and occupancy of the CRE under design basis accident (DBA) conditions without personnel receiving radiation exposures in excess of 5 rem total effective dose equivalent (TEDE) for the duration of the accident.
The program shall include the following elements:
- b. Requirements for maintaining the CRE boundary in its design condition including configuration control and preventive maintenance.
- c. Requirements for (i) determining the unfiltered air inleakage past the CRE boundary into the CRE in accordance with the testing methods and at the Frequencies specified in Sections C.1 and C.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.197, "Demonstrating Control Room Envelope Integrity at Nuclear Power Reactors," Revision 0, May 2003, and (ii) assessing CRE habitability at the Frequencies specified in Sections C.1 and C.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.197, Revision 0.
A05
- d. Measurement, at designated locations, of the CRE pressure relative to external areas adjacent to the CRE boundary during the pressurization mode of operation of the the VFTP, with one CREVS train CREVS, operating at the flow rate required by Surveillance Requirement 4.7.5.d, at a Frequency of 18 months. Additionally, the supply fans (trains A and B) will be tested on a at a Frequency in accordance with the staggered test basis (defined in Technical Specification definition 1.29 every 36 months).
Surveillance Frequency The results shall be trended and the CRE boundary assessed every 18 months.
Control Program
- e. The quantitative limits on unfiltered air inleakage into the CRE. These limits shall be stated in a manner to allow direct comparison to the unfiltered air inleakage measured by the testing described in paragraph c. The unfiltered air inleakage limit for radiological challenges is the inleakage flow rate assumed in the licensing basis analyses of DBA consequences. Unfiltered air inleakage limits for hazardous chemicals must ensure that exposure of CRE occupants to these hazards will be within the assumptions in the licensing basis.
LA02
- f. The provisions of Specification 4.0.2 are applicable to the Frequencies for assessing CRE habitability, determining CRE unfiltered inleakage, and measuring CRE pressure and assessing the CRE boundary as required by paragraphs c and d, respectively.

Gas Decay Tank Explosive Gas and Radioactivity Monitoring Program This Program provides controls for potentially explosive gas mixtures and the quantity of radioactivity contained in the Gas Decay Tanks. The gaseous radioactivity quantities shall be determined following the methodology in Branch Technical Position (BTP) ETSB 11-5, Postulated Radioactive Release Due to Waste Gas System Leak or Failure.
The Program shall include:
- 1. The limits for concentrations of hydrogen and oxygen in the Gas Decay Tanks and a surveillance program to ensure that the limits are maintained. Such limits shall be appropriate to the systems design criteria (i.e., whether or not the system is designed to withstand a hydrogen explosion), and
- 2. A surveillance program to ensure that the quantity of radioactivity contained in each Gas Decay Tank is less than the amount that would result in a whole body exposure of 0.5 rem to any individual in an unrestricted area, in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tanks contents.
The provision of SR 4.0.2 and SR 4.0.3 are applicable to the Gas Decay Tank Explosive Gas and Radioactivity Monitoring Program surveillance frequencies.

ITS A01 ITS 5.5 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS PROCEDURES AND PROGRAMS (Continued) 5.5.17 p. Risk Informed Completion Time Program This program provides controls to calculate a Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT) and must be implemented in accordance with NEI 06-09, Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b: Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines, Revision 0-A, November 2006. The program shall include the following:
- a. The RICT may not exceed 30 days;
- b. A RICT may only be utilized in MODES 1 and 2;
- c. When a RICT is being used, any plant configuration change within the scope of the Risk Informed Completion Time Program must be considered for the effect on the RICT.
- 1. For planned changes, the revised RICT must be determined prior to implementation of the change in configuration.
- 2. For emergent conditions, the revised RICT must be determined within the time limits of the Required Action Completion Time (i.e., not the RICT) or 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> after the plant configuration change, whichever is less.
- 3. Revising the RICT is not required if the plant configuration change would lower plant risk and would result in a longer RICT.
- d. Use of a RICT is not permitted for entry into a configuration which represents a loss of a specified safety function or inoperability of all required trains of a system required to be OPERABLE.
- e. If the extent of condition evaluation for inoperable structures, systems, or components (SSCs) is not complete prior to exceeding the Completion Time, the RICT shall account for the increased possibility of common cause failure (CCF) by either:
- 2. Risk Management Actions (RMAs) not already credited in the RICT calculation shall be implemented that support redundant or diverse SSCs that perform the function(s) of the inoperable SSCs, and, if practicable, reduce the frequency of initiating events that challenge the function(s) performed by the inoperable SSCs.

A06 This program ensures loss of safety function is detected and appropriate actions taken.
limitations and remedial Upon entry into LCO 3.0.7, an evaluation shall be made to determine if loss of safety or compensatory function exists. Additionally, other appropriate actions may be taken as a result of the Condition and Required support system inoperability and corresponding exception to entering supported system Actions ACTIONS. This program implements the requirements of LCO 3.0.7. The SFDP shall contain the following:
A07
- a. Provisions for cross train checks to ensure a loss of the capability to perform the safety function assumed in the accident analysis does not go undetected,
- b. Provisions for ensuring the plant is maintained in a safe condition if a loss of function condition exists, Completion Time A07
- c. Provisions to ensure that an inoperable supported systems allowed outage time is not inappropriately extended as a result of multiple support system inoperabilities, and
- d. Other appropriate limitations and remedial or compensatory actions.
A loss of safety function exists when, assuming no concurrent single failure, no concurrent loss of offsite power, or no concurrent loss of onsite diesel generator(s), a safety function assumed in the accident analysis cannot be performed. For the purpose of this program, a loss of safety function may exist when a support system is inoperable, and:
- a. A required system redundant to the system(s) supported by the inoperable support system is also inoperable, or
- b. A required system redundant to the system(s) in turn supported by the inoperable supported system is also inoperable, or
- c. A required system redundant to the support system(s) for the supported systems (a) and (b) above is also inoperable. Conditions and Required A06 Actions The SFDP identifies where a loss of safety function exists. If a loss of safety function is determined to exist by this program, the appropriate ACTIONS of the LCO in which the loss of safety function exists are required to be entered. When a loss of safety function is caused by the inoperability of a single Technical Specification support system, the appropriate ACTIONS to enter are those of the support system.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.5, PROGRAMS AND MANUALS ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1431, Rev. 5.0, "Standard Technical Specifications - Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS) and additional Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) travelers included in this submittal.
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 The Surveillances associated with the ventilation filter testing for the Control Room Emergency Ventilation System (CREVS) has been placed in a program in the proposed Administrative Controls Chapter 5.0 (ITS 5.5.8). As such, a general program statement has been added as ITS 5.5.8. A statement of the applicability of ITS Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.0.2 and SR 3.0.3 is needed to clarify that the allowances for Surveillance Frequency extensions do apply (as allowed in the CTS). This changes the CTS by moving the ventilation filter testing Surveillances associated with the CREVS to a program in ITS 5.5 and specifically stating the applicability of ITS SR 3.0.2 and SR 3.0.3 in the program.
The addition of the program statement is acceptable because it is describing the intent of the CTS Surveillances. The addition of the ITS SR 3.0.2 and SR 3.0.3 statement is a clarification needed to maintain provisions that are currently allowed in the CTS; therefore, it is considered acceptable. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A03 CTS 6.8.4.j.d states, in part, that the Steam Generator (SG) inspection objective is of detecting flaws of any type (e.g., volumetric flaws, axial and circumferential cracks) that may be present along the length of the tube, from the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet to the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet, and that may satisfy the applicable tube plugging criteria. That the portion of the tube below 18.11 inches from the top of the tubesheet is excluded from inspection. ITS 5.5.6.d states, in part, that the SG inspection objective is of detecting flaws of any type (e.g., volumetric flaws, axial and circumferential cracks) that may be present along the length of the tube, from the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet to the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet except for any portions of the tube that are exempt from inspection by alternate repair criteria, and that may satisfy the applicable tube plugging criteria. This changes the CTS by replacing the specific dimension of the portion of the tube excluded from the inspection, which is listed in paragraph c.1, with a statement that excludes that part of the tube exempt from inspection by alternate repair criteria. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A04 CTS 6.8.4.j.d.2 includes two footnotes (footnote
- and footnote **) that support a one-time extension of the 4th inspection period and a one-time extension to perform SG inspections for Unit 3 and expires after the Cycle 32 refueling outage in Fall of 2021.
ITS 5.5.6, "Steam Generator Program," does not include these one-time extensions.
This changes the CTS by deleting the allowance for these one-time extensions.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.5, PROGRAMS AND MANUALS The VFTP is included to implement the required testing of Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) filter ventilation systems. The specific wording associated with this program may be found in ITS 5.5.8. This change is acceptable because it supports implementation of the requirements of the ITS. This change is designated as more restrictive because it imposes additional programmatic requirements in the Technical Specifications.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 3 - Removing Procedural Details for meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS Table 4.8.2 footnote (6) states, in part the float voltage of 2.13 volts is corrected for average electrolyte temperature. ITS 5.5.14 b.1 requires a program with actions to restore battery cells with float voltage < 2.13 V and ITS 5.5.14 b.2 requires a program with actions to determine whether the float voltage of the remaining battery cells is 2.13 V when the float voltage of a battery cells has been found to be
< 2.13 V. This changes the CTS by moving information from the specification to the Battery Monitoring and Maintenance Program implementing document.
The removal of these details from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. ITS 5.5.14 still retains the requirement for float voltage 2.13 V. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled by the requirements of a program required by ITS Chapter 5. ITS 5.5.14, "Battery Monitoring and Maintenance Program," is controlled by Chapter 5 of the Technical Specifications. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type 5 - Removal of SR Frequency to the Surveillance Frequency Control Program)
CTS 6.8.4.a requires that the Primary Coolant Sources Outside Containment program include integrated leak test requirements for each system at 18-month intervals.
ITS 5.5.2 contains a similar requirement but specifies the periodic Frequency as "In accordance with the Surveillance Frequency Control Program." CTS 6.8.4.e, "Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Program," requires that total particulate concentration of the fuel oil be 10 mg/liter when tested every 31 days. ITS 5.5.10 also requires that total particulate concentration of the fuel oil to be 10 mg/l but when tested in accordance with the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (SFCP). In addition, 6.8.4.k, "Control Room Envelope Habitability Program," requires measurement, at designated locations, of the CRE pressure relative to external areas adjacent to the CRE boundary during the pressurization mode of operation of the CREVS, operating at the flow rate required by SR 4.7.5.d, at a Frequency of 18 months and that the supply fans (trains A and B) will be tested on a staggered test basis (defined in Technical Specification definition 1.29 every 36 months). TS 5.5.15 similarly requires measurement, at designated locations, of the Turkey Point Unit 3 and Unit 4 Page 5 of 10
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.5, PROGRAMS AND MANUALS CRE pressure relative to all external areas adjacent to the CRE boundary during the pressurization mode of operation of the CREVS, operating at the flow rate required by the VFTP, at a Frequency in accordance with the SFCP and that the supply fans (trains A and B) will be tested at a Frequency in accordance with the SFCP. This changes the CTS by moving the specified periodic Frequency for the aforementioned tests to the SFCP.
The purpose of these CTS requirements is to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained. The removal of these details related to test Frequencies from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The existing Frequency is removed from Technical Specifications and placed under licensee control pursuant to the methodology described in NEI 04-10. The test requirements remain in the Technical Specifications. The control of changes to the test Frequencies is in accordance with the SFCP. The SFCP provides the necessary administrative controls to require that surveillances related to testing, calibration and inspection are conducted at a frequency to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met.
The proposed change to relocate periodic frequencies in the administrative controls section of Technical Specifications has been previously approved for Wolf Creek Generating Station Unit 1 in Amendment 227, dated April 8, 2021 (NRC ADAMS Accession No. ML21053A117), River Bend Station Unit 1 in Amendment 196, dated April 29, 2019 (NRC ADAMS Accession No. ML19066A008), and Grand Gulf Nuclear Station Unit 1 in Amendment 219, dated June 11, 2019 (NRC ADAMS Accession No. ML19094A799). PTN Unit 3 and Unit 4 adopted a SFCP in Amendment Nos. 263 (Unit 3) and 258 (Unit 4) (ADAMS Accession No. ML15166A320) as contained in CTS 6.8.4.l (ITS 5.5.16). This change is acceptable because the testing frequencies will be adequately controlled in accordance with the SFCP requirements retained in ITS, which ensure changes are properly evaluated.
Note that the intent of SR 4.7.5.d is to ensure the CRE boundary pressurization test is performed with each CREVS train in operation on an alternating (staggered) basis. In lieu of repeating reference to the SFCP for both the pressurization test and the CREVS trains, the wording is modified to indicate the pressurization test is performed with one CREVS train in service, with the Frequency (staggered test basis) controlled within the SFCP. These changes are designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change, because the test Frequencies are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA03 (Type 3 - Removing Procedural Details for meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS SR 4.8.2.1.c states, in part, that the battery cells, cell plates, and battery racks show no visual indication of physical damage or abnormal deterioration, and that the cell-to-cell and terminal connections are clean, tight, and coated with anticorrosion material. ITS 5.5.14, "Battery Monitoring and Maintenance Program,"
requires the program be maintained in accordance with IEEE Standard (Std) 450-2010.
This changes the CTS by removing the information from the specification to the Battery Monitoring and Maintenance Program implementing document.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.5, PROGRAMS AND MANUALS water and sediment content test is a quantitative test using centrifuge methods. In ASTM D975, ASTM D2709, "Standard Method for Water and Sediment in Middle Distillate Fuels by Centrifuge," is an acceptable standard for the water and sediment content test. Therefore, since ASTM D2709 is currently used to verify the acceptability of new fuel oil for use after addition to the storage tanks, the use of these quantitative methods (i.e., water and sediment content) in lieu of ASTM D4176 (i.e., "clear and bright" test) does not introduce a different method for determining the acceptability of new fuel oil. This change is designated as less restrictive because test acceptance criteria required in the CTS will have alternative acceptance criteria allowed in ITS.

Condition monitoring assessments shall be conducted during each or outage during which the SG tubes are inspected, plugged, [or repaired] to 1 confirm that the performance criteria are being met.
- b. Performance criteria for SG tube integrity. SG tube integrity shall be maintained by meeting the performance criteria for tube structural integrity, accident induced leakage, and operational LEAKAGE.
- 1. Structural integrity performance criterion: All in-service SG tubes shall retain structural integrity over the full range of normal operating conditions (including startup, operation in the power range, hot standby, and cool down), all anticipated transients included in the design specification and design basis accidents. This includes retaining a safety factor of 3.0 against burst under normal steady state full power operation primary-to-secondary pressure differential and a safety factor of 1.4 against burst applied to the design basis accident primary-to-secondary pressure differentials.

In the assessment of tube integrity, those loads that do significantly affect burst or collapse shall be determined and assessed in combination with the loads due to pressure with a safety factor of 1.2 on the combined primary loads and 1.0 on axial secondary loads.
- 2. Accident induced leakage performance criterion: The primary to secondary accident induced leakage rate for any design basis accident, other than a SG tube rupture, shall not exceed the leakage rate assumed in the accident analysis in terms of total leakage rate for 0.60 gpm total through all SGs and all SGs and leakage rate for an individual SG. Leakage is not to 0.20 gpm through any one SG at room temperature conditions. exceed [1 gpm] per SG [, except for specific types of degradation at specific locations as described in paragraph c of the SG Program.] 1
- 3. The operational LEAKAGE performance criterion is specified in LCO 3.4.13, "RCS Operational LEAKAGE."
- c. Provisions for SG tube plugging [or repair] criteria. Tubes found by 1 inservice inspection to contain flaws with a depth equal to or exceeding
[40%] of the nominal tube wall thickness shall be plugged [or repaired]. 1

- d. Provisions for SG tube inspections. Periodic SG tube inspections shall be performed. The number and portions of the tubes inspected and methods of inspection shall be performed with the objective of detecting flaws of any type (e.g., volumetric flaws, axial and circumferential cracks) that may be present along the length of the tube, from the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet to the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet [except for any portions of the tube that are exempt from inspection by alternate repair 1 criteria], and that may satisfy the applicable tube plugging [or repair] criteria.
The tube-to-tubesheet weld is not part of the tube. In addition to meeting the requirements of d.1, d.2, and d.3 below, the inspection scope, inspection methods, and inspection intervals shall be such as to ensure that SG tube integrity is maintained until the next SG inspection. A degradation assessment shall be performed to determine the type and location of flaws to which the tubes may be susceptible and, based on this assessment, to determine which inspection methods need to be employed and at what locations.
REVIEWER'S NOTE----------------------------------------
Plants are to include the appropriate Frequency (e.g., select the appropriate Item 2.) for their SG design. The first Item 2 is applicable to SGs with Alloy 600 mill annealed tubing. The second Item 2 is applicable to SGs with Alloy 600 5 thermally treated tubing. The third Item 2 is applicable to SGs with Alloy 690 thermally treated tubing.

12 6.8.4.q 5.5.14 Safety Function Determination Program (SFDP) 4 This program ensures loss of safety function is detected and appropriate actions taken. Upon entry into LCO 3.0.6, an evaluation shall be made to determine if loss of safety function exists. Additionally, other appropriate limitations and remedial or compensatory actions may be identified to be taken as a result of the support system inoperability and corresponding exception to entering supported system Condition and Required Actions. This program implements the requirements of LCO 3.0.6. The SFDP shall contain the following:
- a. Provisions for cross train checks to ensure a loss of the capability to perform the safety function assumed in the accident analysis does not go undetected,
- b. Provisions for ensuring the plant is maintained in a safe condition if a loss of function condition exists,
- c. Provisions to ensure that an inoperable supported system's Completion Time is not inappropriately extended as a result of multiple support system inoperabilities, and
- d. Other appropriate limitations and remedial or compensatory actions.
A loss of safety function exists when, assuming no concurrent single failure, no concurrent loss of offsite power, or no concurrent loss of onsite diesel generator(s), a safety function assumed in the accident analysis cannot be performed. For the purpose of this program, a loss of safety function may exist when a support system is inoperable, and:
- a. A required system redundant to the system(s) supported by the inoperable support system is also inoperable, or
- b. A required system redundant to the system(s) in turn supported by the inoperable supported system is also inoperable, or Turkey Point Unit 3 and Unit 4 Amendment Nos. XXX and YYY Westinghouse STS 5.5-14 Rev. 5.0 2

- c. A required system redundant to the support system(s) for the supported systems (a) and (b) above is also inoperable.
The SFDP identifies where a loss of safety function exists. If a loss of safety function is determined to exist by this program, the appropriate Conditions and Required Actions of the LCO in which the loss of safety function exists are required to be entered. When a loss of safety function is caused by the inoperability of a single Technical Specification support system, the appropriate Conditions and Required Actions to enter are those of the support system.

REVIEWER'S NOTE----------------------------------------
Adoption of a Setpoint Control Program requires changes to other technical specifications. See TSTF-493, Revision 4, "Clarify Application of Setpoint Methodology for LSSS Functions," Option B, for guidance (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession Number ML101160026).
This program shall establish the requirements for ensuring that setpoints for automatic protective devices are initially within and remain within the assumptions of the applicable safety analyses, provides a means for processing changes to instrumentation setpoints, and identifies setpoint methodologies to ensure instrumentation will function as required. The program shall ensure that testing of automatic protective devices related to variables having significant safety functions as delineated by 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1)(ii)(A) verifies that instrumentation will function as required.
- a. The program shall list the Functions in the following specifications to which it applies:
- 1. LCO 3.3.1, "Reactor Trip System (RTS) Instrumentation;"
- 4. LCO 3.3.6, "Containment Purge and Exhaust Isolation Instrumentation;"
Actuation Instrumentation;"
- 6. LCO 3.3.8, "Fuel Building Air Cleanup System (FBACS) Actuation Instrumentation;" and

Paragraph d. shall apply to all Functions in the Reactor Trip System and Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System specifications unless one or more of the following exclusions apply:
- 1. Manual actuation circuits, automatic actuation logic circuits or to instrument functions that derive input from contacts which have no associated sensor or adjustable device, e.g., limit switches, breaker position switches, manual actuation switches, float switches, proximity detectors, etc. are excluded. In addition, those permissives and interlocks that derive input from a sensor or adjustable device that is tested as part of another TS function are excluded.

- 2. Settings associated with safety relief valves are excluded. The performance of these components is already controlled (i.e., trended with as-left and as-found limits) under the ASME Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants testing program.
- 3. Functions and Surveillance Requirements which test only digital components are normally excluded. There is no expected change in result between SR performances for these components. Where separate as-left and as-found tolerance is established for digital component SRs, the requirements would apply.
The program shall identify the Functions described in paragraph a. that are automatic protective devices related to variables having significant safety functions as delineated by 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1)(ii)(A). The NTSP of these Functions are Limiting Safety System Settings. These Functions shall be demonstrated to be functioning as required by applying the following requirements during CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS, CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TESTS, and TRIP ACTUATING DEVICE OPERATIONAL TESTS that verify the NTSP.

- 5. The Reviewer's Note has been deleted. This information is for the NRC reviewer to be keyed into what is needed to meet this requirement. This Note is not meant to be retained in the final version of the plant specific submittal.
- 6. PTN follows Option B of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J. Therefore, the ISTS 5.5.15 Option A and combined Option A and B provisions have been deleted.
- 7. ISTS 5.5.16 is modified in ITS 5.5.14 to reference IEEE 450-2010, "IEEE Recommended Practice for Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Vented Lead-Acid Batteries for Stationary Applications," and Revision 3 of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.129, "Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Vented Lead-Acid Storage Batteries for Nuclear Power Plants," instead of IEEE 450-2002 and Revision 2 of RG 1.129. RG 1.129, Revision 3 endorses the use of IEEE 450-2010 and eliminates the need for the exceptions specified in ISTS 5.5.16.a; therefore, the exceptions of ISTS 5.5.16.a are not included in ITS 5.5.14. Section 5.4.2 of IEEE 450-2010 states, in part, that specific gravity readings are not recommended to be taken on a regular basis. PTN batteries are lead-calcium type batteries and therefore, specific gravities do not have to be obtained at each discharge test; therefore, ISTS 5.5.16.b.5 is not included in ITS 5.5.14. Use of IEEE 450-2010 and RG 1.129, Revision 3 in the Battery Monitoring and Maintenance Program has been previously approved in Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant Amendments 343 and 325 dated February 5, 2019, for Units 1 and 2, respectively (NRC ADAMS Accession No. ML18346A358).

Specific No Significant Hazards Considerations (NSHCs)
DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATIONS ITS 5.5, PROGRAMS AND MANUALS 10 CFR 50.92 EVALUATION FOR REMOVE DETAIL CHANGE LA02 The Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) is converting Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Units 3 and 4 to the Improved Technical Specifications (ITS) as outlined in NUREG-1431, Revision 5, "Standard Technical Specifications, Westinghouse Plants." The proposed change involves making the Current Technical Specifications (CTS) less restrictive.
Below is the description of this less restrictive change and the determination of No Significant Hazards Considerations for conversion to NUREG-1431.
CTS contains periodic testing frequencies in administrative program requirements for: leakage testing of primary coolant sources outside containment; total particulate concentration testing of the diesel generator fuel oil; and measurement at designated locations of the control room envelope (CRE) pressure relative to external areas adjacent to the CRE boundary during the pressurization mode of operation of the Control Room Emergency Ventilation System. ITS specifies the periodic Frequency for these tests as "In accordance with the Surveillance Frequency Control Program." This changes the CTS by moving the specified periodic Frequency for these tests to the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (SFCP).
The purpose of these CTS requirements is to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained. The removal of these details related to test Frequencies from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The existing Frequency is removed from Technical Specifications and placed under licensee control pursuant to the methodology described in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 04-10, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 5b, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies," Revision 1, dated April 2007 (ADAMS Accession No. ML071360456). The test requirements remain in the Technical Specifications. The control of changes to the test Frequencies is in accordance with the SFCP. The SFCP provides the necessary administrative controls to require that surveillances related to testing, calibration and inspection are conducted at a frequency to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met.
The proposed change to relocate periodic frequencies in the administrative controls section of Technical Specifications has been previously approved for Wolf Creek Generating Station Unit 1 in Amendment 227, dated April 8, 2021 (NRC ADAMS Accession No. ML21053A117), River Bend Station Unit 1 in Amendment 196, dated April 29, 2019 (NRC ADAMS Accession No. ML19066A008), and Grand Gulf Nuclear Station Unit 1 in Amendment 219, dated June 11, 2019 (NRC ADAMS Accession No. ML19094A799). PTN Unit 3 and Unit 4 adopted a SFCP in Amendment Nos. 263 (Unit 3) and 258 (Unit 4) (ADAMS Accession No. ML15166A320) as contained in CTS 6.8.4.l (ITS 5.5.16). This change is acceptable because the testing frequencies will be adequately controlled in accordance with the SFCP requirements retained in ITS, which ensure changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change, because the test Frequencies are being removed from the Technical Specifications.

DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATIONS ITS 5.5, PROGRAMS AND MANUALS FPL has reviewed the proposed no significant hazards consideration (NSHC) determination published in Federal Register 74 FR 31996 dated July 6, 2009, associated with NRC-approved Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Standard Technical Specifications change TSTF-425, "Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - Risk Informed Technical Specifications Task Force (RITSTF) Initiative 5b," Revision 3. FPL has concluded that the proposed NSHC presented in the Federal Register notice is applicable to the proposed relocation of the periodic testing frequencies specified herein.
FPL has evaluated whether a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed generic change by focusing on the three standards in 10 CFR 50.92, "Issuance of Amendment,"
as discussed below:
- 1. Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?
Response: No.
The proposed change relocates the specified frequencies for periodic surveillance requirements to licensee control under the SFCP. Surveillance frequencies are not an initiator to any accident previously evaluated. As a result, the probability of any accident previously evaluated is not significantly increased. The systems and components required by the Technical Specifications for which the surveillance frequencies are relocated are still required to be operable, meet the acceptance criteria for the surveillance requirements, and be capable of performing any mitigation function assumed in the accident analysis. As a result, the consequences of any accident previously evaluated are not significantly increased.
Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
- 2. Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?
Response: No.
No new or different accidents result from using the proposed change. The changes do not involve a physical alteration of the plant (i.e., no new or different type of equipment will be installed) or a change in the methods governing normal plant operation. In addition, the changes do not impose any new or different requirements or eliminate any existing requirements. The changes do not alter assumptions made in the safety analysis. The proposed changes are consistent with the safety analysis assumptions and current plant operating practice.
Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATIONS ITS 5.5, PROGRAMS AND MANUALS
- 3. Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?
Response: No.
The design, operation, testing methods, and acceptance criteria for systems, structures, and components (SSCs), specified in applicable codes and standards (or alternatives approved for use by the NRC) will continue to be met as described in the plant licensing basis (including the updated final safety analysis report and bases to technical specifications),
since these are not affected by changes to the surveillance frequencies. Similarly, there is no impact to safety analysis acceptance criteria as described in the plant licensing basis.
To evaluate a change in the relocated surveillance frequency, FPL performs a probabilistic risk evaluation using the guidance contained in NRC approved NEI 04-10, Revision 1, in accordance with the Technical Specification SFCP. NEI 04-10, Revision 1, methodology provides reasonable acceptance guidelines and methods for evaluating the risk increase of proposed changes to surveillance frequencies consistent with Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.177, "An Approach for Plant-Specific, Risk-Informed Decisionmaking: Technical Specifications."
Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
Based on the above, FPL concludes that the proposed change does not involve a significant hazards consideration under the standards in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and, accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.

Current Technical Specification (CTS) Markup and Discussion of Changes (DOCs)
A01 ITS ITS 5.7 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS 6.11 DELETED or equivalent that includes specification of radiation 5.7 6.12 HIGH RADIATION AREA dose rates in the immediate work area(s) 5.7.1 6.12.1 Pursuant to paragraph 20.1601(c) of 10 CFR Part 20, in lieu of the control device or alarm signal required by paragraph 20.1601(a), each high radiation area, as defined in 10 CFR Part 20, in which the intensity of radiation is greater than 100 mrem/ hr but equal to or less than 1000 mrem/ hr at 30 cm (12 in.) from the radiation source or from any surface which the radiation penetrates shall be barricaded and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area and entrance thereto shall be controlled by requiring issuance of a Radiation W ork Permit (RW P). Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures (e.g., Health Physics Technician) or personnel A02 continuously escorted by such individuals may be exempt from the RW P issuance requirement during the performance of their assigned duties in high radiation areas with exposure rates equal to or less than 1000 mrem/ hr, provided they are otherwise following plant radiation protection procedures for entry into such high radiation areas.
Any individual or group of individuals permitted to enter such areas shall be provided with or accompanied by one or more of the following:
- a. A radiation monitoring device which continuously indicates the radiation dose rate in the area; or
- b. A radiation monitoring device which continuously integrates the radiation dose rate in the area and alarms when a preset integrated dose is received. Entry into such areas with this monitoring device may be made after the dose rate levels in the area have been established and personnel have been made knowledgeable of them; or INSERT 1 L01
- c. An individual qualified in radiation protection procedures with a radiation dose rate monitoring device, who is responsible for providing positive control over the activities within the area and shall perform periodic radiation surveillance at the frequency specified by the Health Physics Shift Supervisor in the RW P.
5.7.2 6.12.2 In addition to the requirements of Specification 6.12.1, areas accessible to personnel with radiation levels greater than 1000 mrem/ hr at 30 cm (12 in.) and less than 500 rads/ hr at 1 meter from the radiation source or manager from any surface which the radiation penetrates shall be provided with locked doors to prevent unauthorized entry, and the keys shall be maintained under the administrative control of the shift supervisor on duty and/ or A01 health physics supervision. Doors shall remain locked except during periods of access by personnel under an approved RW P which shall specify the dose rate levels in the immediate work areas and the maximum allowable stay time for individuals in that area. In lieu of the stay time specification of the RW P, direct or remote (such as closed circuit TV cameras) continuous surveillance may be made by personnel qualified in radiation protection procedures to provide positive exposure control over the activities being performed within the area.
For individual high radiation areas accessible to personnel with radiation levels of greater than 1000 mrem/ hr and less than 500 rads/ hr that are located within large areas, such as PW R containment, where no enclosure exists for purposes of locking, and where no enclosure can be reasonably constructed around the individual area, that individual area shall be barricaded, conspicuously posted, and a flashing light shall be activated as a warning device.

DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.7, HIGH RADIATION AREA ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station (PTN) Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1431, Rev. 5.0, "Standard Technical Specifications - Westinghouse Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 6.12.1 states, in part, "and entrance thereto shall be controlled by requiring issuance of a Radiation Work Permit (RWP)." ITS 5.7.1.b states, in part, that access to, and activities in, each such area shall be controlled by means of a Radiation Work Permit (RWP) or equivalent that includes specification of radiation dose rates in the immediate work area (s). This changes the CTS by specifying that the RWP shall include specification of radiation dose rates in the immediate work area(s).
The purpose of CTS 6.12.1 is to specify the controls needed to access high radiation areas. This change is acceptable because the additional wording that the RWP equivalent includes a specification of radiation dose rates in the immediate work area(s) clarifies the requirements of an RWP. This is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES None RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES None LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 1 - Relaxation of LCO Requirements) CTS 6.12.1 provides requirements for radiation monitoring of individuals entering a high radiation area.
ITS 5.7.1.d provides similar requirements adding an option for remote monitoring by a radiation protection personnel adding a radiation monitoring device that continuously transmits dose rate and cumulative dose information to a remote receiver monitored by radiation protection personnel responsible for controlling Turkey Point Unit 3 and Unit 4 Page 1 of 2
DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 5.7, HIGH RADIATION AREA personnel radiation exposure within the area. This changes the CTS by providing an additional device that an individual entering these high radiation areas must possess for radiation monitoring.
The purpose of CTS 6.12 is to provide appropriate alternate means for monitoring the exposure of personnel in the respective high radiation areas. This change is acceptable because the means specified provide a reliable method of monitoring personnel exposure. This change is designated as less restrictive because a new alternative for measuring personnel dose in high radiation areas has been provided.
