SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
22:09 Jul 31, 2014
The
proposed amendment would have
modified the facility technical
specifications (TSs) TS 3.8.4, ‘‘DC
[Direct Current] Sources-Operating,’’ TS
3.8.5, ‘‘DC Sources-Shutdown,’’ and TS
3.8.6, ‘‘Battery Cell Parameters.’’ The
request included changes consistent
with both Technical Specifications Task
Force (TSTF) change traveler TSTF–360,
Revision 1, ‘‘DC Electrical Rewrite’’
(ADAMS Accession No. ML003778381),
and TSTF–500, ‘‘DC Electrical
Rewrite—Update to TSTF–360’’
(ADAMS Accession No. ML092670242),
which provided an update to the
changes approved in TSTF–360.
However, the proposed TS changes were
based on the TSTF–360 and TSTF–500
changes that were appropriate to the
WBN Unit 1 design, because the direct
current electrical power distribution
system referenced in the model
application is significantly different
than the system that exists at Watts Bar.
Because of this, TVA did not utilize the
model application for TSTF–500, but
rather provided plant-specific
justifications for the related TSTF–500
changes that were proposed in this
License Amendment Request. In
addition to the TSTF–360 and TSTF–
500 related changes, editorial and
clarification changes to TS 3.8.4, 3.8.5,
and 3.8.6 were proposed in this request.
The Commission had previously
issued a Notice of Consideration of
Issuance of Amendment published in
the Federal Register on December 10,
2013 (78 FR 74186). However, by letter
dated June 20, 2014 (ADAMS Accession
No. ML14178B301), the licensee
withdrew the proposed changes.
For further details with respect to this
action, see the application for
amendment dated August 28, 2013
(ADAMS Accession No. ML13248A250),
and the licensee’s letter dated June 20,
2014, which withdrew the application
for license amendment.
