2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 1 of 9 RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RELATED TO LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO ADOPT A SAFETY FUNCTION DETERMINATION PROGRAM (SFDP)

By application dated November 17, 2020 (Reference 1), Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy) submitted a license amendment request (LAR) for Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 2 (ANO-2). The proposed amendment would modify the ANO-2 Technical Specifications (TSs) to incorporate the provisions of Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.0.6 of the Improved Standard Technical Specifications (ISTS), which provide the actions to be taken when the inoperability of a TS support system results in the inoperability of a related TS supported system(s). During the course of review, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) determined additional information was required to complete the review process.

The NRC notified Entergy of the request for additional information (RAI) on April 9, 2021 (Reference 2).

Each question associated with the subject RAI is repeated below followed immediately by Entergy's response to the specific question.

RAI-1

In the LAR dated November 17, 2020, the licensee proposes to change LCO 3.3.2.1 to require entry into applicable Actions of the associated emergency diesel generator (EDG) for inoperable Loss of Voltage (LOV) and Degraded Voltage (DV) channels when any DV relay (channel) or both LOV relays on a respective safety bus are inoperable. To address this condition, a new Action 14 is proposed for LCO 3.3.2.1, Table 3.3-3. New Action 14 states in part, "With the number of 460-volt Degraded Voltage (Functional Unit 7.b) channels ". The licensee explains that while Action 14 is a new action, it was developed from Action 9. Action 9 includes OPERABLE in its description of the channels condition as follows: "With the number of OPERABLE channels". In addition, all of the Table 3.3-3 Actions consistently include OPERABLE when describing a channels condition. Explain why proposed new Action 14 does not include OPERABLE to describe the condition of the 460-volt Degraded Voltage channels.

Entergy Response Entergy is in agreement that Action 14 of the proposed LCO 3.3.2.1 should contain the word "OPERABLE" to describe the condition of the 460-volt Degraded Voltage channels. See Entergy's response below to RAI 2 for the revised wording of Action 14.

2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 2 of 9

RAI-2

In the LAR, the licensee proposes to add Action 14 item a., which states, "Immediately declare the affected EDG inoperable ". If the proposed change is adopted, it appears that this may be the first use of the EDG acronym in the ANO-2 TSs. In addition, it does not appear to be consistent with other ANO-2 TSs (e.g., the term "diesel generator" is spelled out in specifications for electrical power systems). Explain why the proposed new Action introduces an acronym that is not defined and is inconsistent with the electrical power systems specifications. This similar issue also applies to the proposed Action Note for LCO 3.7.3.1, which also uses the "EDG" acronym.

Entergy Response Entergy is in agreement that the acronym "EDG" is not defined nor used in the ANO-2 TSs. The acronym is only used in the ANO-2 TS Bases, and the appropriate term for LCO 3.3.2.1 Action 14 should be "diesel generator", since the 4.16 kV Loss of Voltage channels are only associated with the 2K-4A/B diesel generators.

Likewise, the proposed Action Note 1 for LCO 3.7.3.1, "Service Water", should use the term "diesel generator", consistent with the electrical power system TSs With consideration of RAI 1 and RAI 2, LCO 3.3.2.1 Action 14, Item a, is modified as follows, with the changes underlined, to use the spelled out term "diesel generator" and to include the word "OPERABLE", consistent with the existing ANO-2 TSs.

ACTION 14 - With the number of OPERABLE 460 volt Degraded Voltage (Functional Unit 7.b) channels one less than the Total Number of Channels or with both 4.16 kV Loss of Voltage (Functional Unit 7.a) channels inoperable on a single bus:

a.

Immediately declare the affected diesel generator inoperable, and LCO 3.7.3.1 Action Note 1 has been modified as follows to correct the diesel generator wording with the changes underlined:

1.

Enter applicable ACTION(s) of LCO 3.8.1.1, "AC Sources - Operating," for diesel generator made inoperable by service water system.

Revised markup and retyped versions of the affected TS pages are included in Attachments 1 and 2 of this enclosure, respectively.

2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 3 of 9

RAI-3

In the LAR, the licensee indicates that proposed new LCO 3.8.1.1 Actions would be consistent with ISTS. New Action a.2 of LCO 3.8.1.1 is consistent with ISTS by including language that connects the specified completion time interval (24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />) to the condition (from discovery of concurrent with ) and then the Action (declare ) as follows: "Within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> from discovery of no offsite power to one train concurrent with inoperability of redundant feature(s), declare".

However, other new Actions added to LCO 3.8.1.1, are not consistent with ISTS. For example, the licensee proposed to add new Action b.2, which states, "Within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, declare". The ISTS wording applicable to b.2, includes language between "4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />" and "declare," similar to new Action a.2 described above and as follows: "Within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, from discovery of concurrent with". Given that the ISTS connects the specified completion time interval "within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />" to the condition using "from the discovery of" and "concurrent with", explain why Action b.2 is not written in a manner that aligns with the approach taken for new Action a.2, using similar ISTS wording, as appropriate. For example, following the new Action a.2 approach, why is not new Action b.2 written in part as: "Within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, from discovery of one diesel generator inoperable concurrent with inoperability of redundant required features, declare"? The same logic and question apply to proposed new Action c.2 and proposed new Action d.2.

Entergy Response Entergy agrees that the sub-Actions associated with LCO 3.8.1.1 should be worded in accordance with the guidance provided in TSTF-529 Rev. 4, "Clarify Use and Application Rules," Using the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process (CLIIP)" (Reference 3);

therefore, they have been modified as follows (changes underlined):

(LCO 3.8.1.1 Action b)

2.

Within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> from discovery of one required diesel generator inoperable concurrent with inoperability of redundant required feature(s), declare required feature(s) supported by the inoperable diesel generator inoperable when its redundant required feature(s) is inoperable, and (LCO 3.8.1.1 Action c)

2.

Within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> from discovery of one required diesel generator inoperable concurrent with inoperability of redundant required feature(s), declare required feature(s) supported by the inoperable diesel generator inoperable if its redundant required feature(s) is inoperable, and (LCO 3.8.1.1 Action d)

2.

Within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> from discovery of two required offsite A.C. circuits inoperable concurrent with inoperability of redundant required feature(s), declare required feature(s) inoperable when its redundant required feature(s) is inoperable, and Revised markup and retyped versions of the affected TS pages are included in Attachments 1 and 2 of this enclosure, respectively.

2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 4 of 9

RAI-4

In the LAR, the licensee describes the addition of a Note to LCO 3.8.1.2 as similar to the ISTS.

The ISTS Note states, "Enter applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.8.10, with one required train de-energized as a result of Condition A." Condition A is an inoperable offsite power circuit. In contrast with the ISTS, the proposed ANO-2 Note stops at "de-energized,"

leaving off the last few words: "as a result of an inoperable offsite power circuit." The LAR discussion on the addition of the Note to LCO 3.8.1.2 indicates that the Note would apply with one required train de-energized "as a result of an inoperable offsite circuit." Explain why the Note was not written, for example, as "Enter applicable ACTIONs of LCO with one required train de-energized as a result of an inoperable offsite power circuit," which would be as described in the LAR and similar to the ISTS. As part of the response, provide an assessment as to whether leaving out the words "as a result of an inoperable offsite circuit" is more or less restrictive as compared to the ISTS. In either case (i.e., more or less restrictive), provide a justification for the omission.

Entergy Response The purpose of ISTS 3.8.2 Required Actions A.2.3 and B.3 is to promptly initiate action to restore the LCO requirements (required offsite power circuit and required diesel generator to operable status, respectively). The proposed note, which omits the phrase " as a result of an inoperable offsite circuit", is considered more restrictive than the ISTS because it does not require the cause of the loss of the required train to be due to an inoperable offsite circuit. It is more conservative since it applies any time the required train is de-energized regardless of the status of the required offsite power source. Entergy believes it is prudent to enter the applicable actions of LCO 3.8.2.2 and LCO 3.8.2.4 (as modified by responses to RAI 5, 6, and 7 below) in any conceived scenario where the required train is de-energized to ensure that the Shutdown Cooling loop is returned to operable status as soon as possible. This includes immediately taking action to return any inoperable distribution systems to operable status. It is also important to suspend all operations involving core alterations or positive reactivity changes during the recovery period. As such, Entergy does not propose additional changes to the LCO 3.8.1.2 Action Note.

2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 5 of 9

RAI-5

In the LAR (Enclosure pages 6-7 and 23 of 32), the licensee describes a proposed revision to LCO 3.8.2.2, modifying and reformatting the single Action into an Action a and a new Action b.

The licensee proposes to add the phrase "declare affected required features inoperable OR:" to the introductory statement of the Actions. There is no specified completion time associated with the Action to "declare." In addition, new Action b. states "Initiate actions to restore ". Again, there is no specified completion time associated with the Action to "Initiate". Currently (i.e.,

with the single Action), there is a specified completion time ("immediately") in the TSs associated with the single Action. Please include the specified completion time or provide justification for the proposed approach.

Entergy Response Entergy agrees that the completion times for the Action and sub-Actions associated with LCO 3.8.2.2 should be performed "immediately" and are subsequently modified as follows (changes underlined):

ACTION With less than the above complement of A.C. busses OPERABLE and energized, immediately declare affected required features inoperable OR:

a.

Immediately suspend core alterations, the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies, and any operations involving positive reactivity additions, and

b.

Immediately initiate actions to restore required AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems to OPERABLE status.

A revised markup and retyped version of the affected TS page are included in Attachments 1 and 2 of this enclosure, respectively.

2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 6 of 9

RAI-6

In the LAR (Enclosure pages 7 and 24 of 32), the licensee proposes a revision to LCO 3.8.2.4 Action b, which would add Actions (and reformat the existing Action). The licensee proposes to add the phrase "declare affected required features inoperable OR:" to the introductory text for Action b. However, there is no specified completion time associated with the Action to "declare." In addition, new Action b.ii states "Initiate actions to restore" Again, there is no specified completion time associated with the Action to "Initiate" Currently, there is a specified time ("immediately") in the TSs associated with Action b. Please include the specified completion time or provide justification for the proposed approach.

Entergy Response Entergy agrees that the completion times for the Action and sub-Actions associated with LCO 3.8.2.4 should be performed immediately and are modified as follows (changes underlined):

b.

With the requirements of ACTION 'a' not met or with the above complement of DC equipment and bus otherwise inoperable, immediately declare affected required features inoperable OR:

i.

Immediately suspend core alterations, the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies, and any operations involving positive reactivity additions, and ii.

Immediately initiate actions to restore required AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems to OPERABLE status.

A revised markup and retyped version of the affected TS page are included in Attachments 1 and 2 of this enclosure, respectively.

2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 7 of 9

RAI-7

In the introduction to Section 3.5 of the LAR (Enclosure page 16 of 32) states, in part, that

"[T]he proposed Actions are consistent with those included in the ISTS ". As described in the LAR (Enclosure page 23 of 32), ISTS LCO 3.8.10 provides an option to "[D]eclare associated support feature(s) inoperable" (Required Action A.1) OR alternatively in part, initiate actions to restore required alternating current (AC), direct current (DC), and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems to operable status (A.2.3) AND declare associated required shutdown cooling (SDC) inoperable (A.2.4). In the LAR (Enclosure page 23 of 32), the licensee states,

" ANO-2 TSs do not currently have corresponding Actions in LCO 3.8.2.2 and LCO 3.8.2.4 which initiate actions to restore the required buses electrical power to operable status and which declare the associated required SDC subsystem(s) inoperable as directed by Required Actions A.2.3 and A.2.4 in ISTS LCO 3.8.10."

In addition, in the LAR (Enclosure page 24 of 32) the licensee states, "No specific Action is added regarding the SDC system as the added Action to declare affected required features inoperable in both LCO 3.8.2.2 and LCO 3.8.2.4 envelops this requirement."

Like the ISTS, the licensee proposes to provide the option to "declare affected features inoperable" OR alternatively in part, initiate actions to restore required AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems (3.8.2.2 Action b. and 3.8.2.4 Action b.ii) to operable status. However, unlike the ISTS, the proposed ANO-2 Actions after the OR logical connector do not include the statement declaring SDC inoperable. According to ISTS LCO 3.8.10 Bases, ISTS Required Actions (e.g., A.2.1 through A.2.3) do not adequately address the concerns relating to coolant circulation and heat removal. Pursuant to LCO 3.0.6, the SDC Actions would not be entered. Therefore, a Required Action (A.2.4) is provided to direct declaring SDC inoperable, which results in taking the appropriate SDC actions.

Explain how the proposed ANO-2 option to "declare affected features inoperable" envelops the SDC requirement (i.e., declaring the associated SDC system inoperable), given that the ISTS contains a similar option to declare affected features inoperable OR alternate actions in part, that declare SDC inoperable. In the response, please address the proposed use of logical connectors and how the added Action to declare affected required features inoperable, which precedes the OR logical connector, would extend to actions that follow the OR logical connector.

Entergy Response Entergy agrees that an Action to declare the affected SDC train inoperable should be included following the "OR" conjunction in the proposed changes to LCOs 3.8.2.2 and 3.8.2.4, consistent with the ISTS as described in RAI 7 above. Subsequently, the Actions of LCOs 3.8.2.2 and 3.8.2.4 are modified as follows (changes). The examples below include changes made in response to RAIs 5 and 6 above.

2CAN052103 Enclosure Page 8 of 9 (LCO 3.8.2.2)

ACTION With less than the above complement of A.C. busses OPERABLE and energized, immediately declare affected required features inoperable OR:

a.

Immediately suspend core alterations, the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies, and any operations involving positive reactivity additions, and

b.

Immediately initiate actions to restore required AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems to OPERABLE status, and

c.

Immediately declare associated required shutdown cooling subsystem(s) inoperable and not in operation.

(LCO 3.8.2.4)

b.

With the requirements of ACTION 'a' not met or with the above complement of DC equipment and bus otherwise inoperable, immediately declare affected required features inoperable OR:

i.

Immediately suspend core alterations, the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies, and any operations involving positive reactivity additions, and ii.

Immediately initiate actions to restore required AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems to OPERABLE status, and iii.

Immediately declare associated required shutdown cooling subsystem(s) inoperable and not in operation.
