2.0 EVALUATION The NRC staff has reviewed the TS changes proposed by the licensee and finds them, acceptable, based on the following evaluation:
A.
Section 6.2.3 - Onsite Safety Review Group (OSRG)
PG6E proposed to change TS Section 6.2.3.1 to change the title of the manager to which the OSRG reports from " Manager, Nuclear Operations Support" to " Manager, Nuclear Safety Assessment and Regulatory Affairs." PG&E states that this change is consistent with proposed Nuclear Power Generation (NPG) organizational changes to functionally consolidate PG&E activities related to independent assessments of plant safety and those related to interfacing with nuclear regulatory agencies. The staff has reviewed this change and finds it to be acceptable because is consistent with the recommendations of NUREG-0800(theStandardReviewPlan,orSRP).

Section 6.5.3.2 - GONPRAC Composition PG&E proposed to change TS Section 6.5.3.2 to (1) change the GONPRAC Chairman from "Vice President, Nuclear Power Generation " to
" Manager, Nuclear Safety Assessment and Regulatory Affairs, (2) change the GONPRAC Vice Chairman from " Assistant to the Vice President,(Nuclear Power Generation," to " Manager, Nuclear Operatio Support "
Services from the GONPRAC. PG8E states that these changes are i
consistent with the NPG organizational changes made to consolidate and strengthen activities related to independent technical assessments of plant safety. The staff has reviewed these changes and finds them acceptable because they are consistent with the reconnendations of the SRP.
C.
Sections 6.5 - Review and Audit and 6.7 - Safety Limit Violation In these sections of the 15. PG8E proposed to change all references to the " President," to the "Vice President, Nuclear Power Generation." This is necessitated by the pro >osed organizational change in which the GONPRAC would report to tie Vice President, Nuclear Power Generation (NPG), rather than the President.
The NRC staff has reviewed this proposed change and finds it acceptable because it is consistent with the recommendations of the SRP, the Standard Technical Specifications,for the Operational and ANSI N18.7-1976,
" Administrative Controls and Quality Assurance Phase of Nuclear Power Plants."
