==Dear Sir:==
 
This letter transmits the Authority's response to a recent request for additional information (Reference 1) pertaining to a proposed Technical Specification Amendment to revise Technical Specification (TS) Table 3.2 2 and TS Table 4.2 2, " Core & Containment Cooling System Instrumentation Test and Calibration Requirements." This letter also transmits a change to the previour submittal regardir,3 Core Spray and RHR pump start timers and Containment High Pressure trip function instrumentation requirements.
Attachment I provides a response to the requests for additional information for specific examples to support the replacement of the generic actions for inoperable instrument channels with function-specific actions and the replacernent of generic test AOTs with function specific AOTs. Attachment ll provides the sa s information contained in the original submittal but is reformatted to show how each function specific change in Table 3.2-2 was accomplished.                                                                                            I In the original TS amendment submittal, regarding Core Spray and RHR pump start timers                  .
(Number 11, page 12 of 24, in attachment 11 of reference 2) the required LCO action                  i      ,g statements would have required:
j\
                *B.      With both start timers in the same LPCI subsystem inoperable, immediately rack out the circuit breakers for the affected RHR pumps and declare that LPCI
          '9'G            subsystem inoperable.

Page 2 C.      With one start timu inoperable, restore the timer to an operable status within 24 hours, or rack out the circuit breaker for the affected pump and declare the affected pump inoperable."
Racking out the breaker of the affected pumps has been determined not to be the most conservative action. An engineering evaluation and review of past performance records has determined that the simultaneous start of two of the ECCS pumps on the same emergency bus would not affect the availability of the emergency buses. Therefore, the required actions are being revised to remove the requirement to rack out affected ECCS pump breakers. This was discovered during the ongoing effort to convert the current JAFNPP Technical Specifications to improved Standard Technical Specifications that are based on NUREG 1433, Revision 1, " improved Standard Technical Specifications" (STS). These revised actions are ennsistent with STS section 3.3.5.1.
The original submittal requested that th .ontainment High Pressure trip function that prevents inadvertent operation of containment spray during accident conditions be moved from the technical specifications to a plant controlled procedure. The basis for the removal of the                                .
trip function was that it did not meet the criterion set forth in 10 CFR 50.36. The authority will retain the trip function in the technical specifications based on the information provided in NEDO-31466, Supplement 1 (reference 8). NEDO 31466 originally concluded that the trip function did not need to be retained. This position was reversed in the supplement.
Attachment lll contains the proposed TS amendment submittal as revised. Attachment IV contains the revised Safety Evaluation that contains the description of the changes. The conclusion reached in the no significant hazards evaluation of the Safety Evaluation are unchanged by this revision. Attachment V contains the mark-up of the proposed amendment as revised. Attachment VI lists the commitment contained in this submittal.
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Robert Steigerwald at (315) 349-6209.
