On March 12, 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued a Request for Information pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 50.54(f)

(Reference 1) to all power reactor licensees. Enclosure 1 of the 50.54(f) letter requested addressees to reevaluate the seismic hazards at their respective sites using present-day NRC requirements and guidance, and to identify any actions taken or planned to address plant-specific vulnerabilities associated with the updated seismic hazards.

EPRI Report 1025287 (Reference 2) provides the guidance for screening, prioritization, and implementation details for the resolution of the Fukushima Near-Term Task Force (NTTF)

Recommendation 2.1: Seismic. The EPRI Screening, Prioritization and Implementation Details (SPID) guidance was used to compare the reevaluated seismic hazard to the design basis seismic hazard for Watts Bar, Units 1 and 2. As described in Reference 3, Enclosure 4, it was concluded that the reevaluated ground motion response spectrum (GMRS) exceeded the design basis response spectrum in the 1 to 10 Hz range. Accordingly, a seismic probabilistic risk assessment was required.

References 4 and 5 are the NRC Staff Assessments for Watts Bar, Units 1 and 2, respectively, seismic hazard submittals which concluded that the reevaluated seismic hazards described in Reference 3, Enclosure 4, are suitable for other activities associated with NTTF Recommendation 2.1: Seismic.

In Reference 6, NRC indicated that a seismic probabilistic risk assessment was required for Watts Bar, Units 1 and 2, and should be submitted to NRC by June 30, 2017.

The Enclosure to this letter provides the Seismic Probabilistic Risk Assessment Summary Report for Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, as requested in Reference 6. The Enclosure provides the information requested in Item (8)B of the 50.54(f) letter associated with NTTF Recommendation 2.1: Seismic.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission CNL-17-071 Page 3 June 30, 2017 A probabilistic seismic hazard analysis was in progress to support the licensing efforts of Watts Bar, Unit 2, before the 50.54(f) request for information (Reference 1) was issued. This seismic hazard analysis was used for the Watts Bar seismic probabilistic risk assessment in lieu of the NTTF 2.1 submittal (Reference 3, Enclosure 4) since the analysis developed the additional elements required for the seismic probabilistic risk assessment such as Foundation Input Response Spectra, Hazard-Consistent Strain-Compatible Properties, and vertical ground motions. The seismic hazard used in the Watts Bar seismic probabilistic risk assessment envelopes the seismic hazard previously submitted in Reference 3, Enclosure 4.

This letter contains no new regulatory commitments .

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

In response to the 10 CFR 50.54(f) letter issued by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on March 12, 2012, a Seismic Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) has been developed for Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2. The Seismic PRA shows that the point estimate seismic Core Damage Frequency (CDF) is 2.6X10-6per reactor calendar year (rcy) for Unit 1 and is 2.6X10-6 per rcy for Unit 2 [12]. The seismic Large Early Release Frequency (LERF) is 1.7X10-6/rcy [12] for both Units. Note that CDF and LERF throughout this document are always referring to seismic CDF and seismic LERF, not CDF and LERF from all haxards.

Sensitivity studies were performed to identify critical assumptions, test the sensitivity to quantification parameters and the seismic hazard, and identify potential areas to consider for the reduction of seismic risk. These sensitivity studies demonstrated that the model results were robust to the modeling and assumptions used. No seismic hazard vulnerabilities were identified, and no plant actions have been taken or are planned given the insights from the seismic risk assessment.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 1.0 Purpose and Objective Following the accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant resulting from the March 11, 2011, Great Tohoku Earthquake and subsequent tsunami, the NRC established a Near Term Task Force (NTTF) to conduct a systematic review of NRC processes and regulations and to determine if the agency should make additional improvements to its regulatory system. The NTTF developed a set of recommendations intended to clarify and strengthen the regulatory framework for protection against natural phenomena. Subsequently, the NRC issued a 50.54(f) letter on March 12, 2012 [1], requesting information to assure that these recommendations are addressed by all U.S. nuclear power plants. The 50.54(f) letter requests that licensees and holders of construction permits under 10 CFR Part 50 reevaluate the seismic hazards at their sites against present-day NRC requirements and guidance.

A comparison between the reevaluated seismic hazard and the design basis for Watts Bar Nuclear plant (WBN) Units 1 & 2 has been performed, in accordance with the guidance in Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) 1025287, Screening, Prioritization and Implementation Details (SPID) for the Resolution of Fukushima Near-Term Task Force Recommendation 2.1: Seismic [2], and previously submitted to NRC [3]. That comparison concluded that the Ground Motion Response Spectra (GMRS), which was developed based on the reevaluated seismic hazard, exceeds the design basis seismic response spectrum in the 1 to 10 Hz range, and a seismic risk assessment is required. A seismic PRA has been developed to perform the seismic risk assessment for WBN in response to the 50.54(f) letter, specifically item (8) in Enclosure 1 of the 50.54(f) letter.

This report describes the seismic PRA developed for WBN and provides the information requested in item (8)(B) of Enclosure 1 of the 50.54(f) letter and in Section 6.8 of the SPID. The intent of the Seismic PRA is to assess the seismic risk for WBN, identify which structures, systems, and components (SSCs) are important to seismic risk, and describe plant-specific seismic issues and associated actions planned or taken.

This report provides summary information regarding the Seismic PRA as outlined in Section 2.

The level of detail provided in the report is intended to enable the NRC to understand the inputs and methods used, the evaluations performed, and the decisions made as a result of the insights gained from the WBN seismic PRA.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 3.0 WBN Seismic Hazard and Plant Response This section provides summary site information and pertinent features including location and site characterization. The subsections provide brief summaries of the site hazard and plant response characterization.

WBN is a dual unit Westinghouse 4-loop pressurized water reactor located in southeastern Tennessee on the west shore of Chickamauga Lake approximately 50 miles northeast of Chattanooga. The regional and site (local) geology is described in additional detail in the WBN NTTF 2.1 Seismic Hazard submittal [3]. WBN is a firm rock site. The foundation material and foundation elevation for the Category I plant structures is described in Table 3.0-1. The geotechnical profiles are developed using original WBN Units 1 and 2 borehole data supplemented with recent Spectral Analysis of Surface Wave testing at the site.

Table 3.0-1: Category I Structures and Geotechnical Foundation Material Category I Structure Geotechnical. Foundation Applicable Material Elevation Intake Pumping Station Shale/Limestone bedrock 648 ft Reactor Building, Unit 1 and Unit 2 Shale/Limestone bedrock 664 ft Auxiliary Building Shale/Limestone bedrock 684 ft Control Building Shale/Limestone bedrock 684 ft Diesel Generator Building Crushed Rock 728 ft Refueling Water Storage Tank, Granular Backfill 728 ft Unit 1 and Unit 2 3.1 Seismic Hazard Analysis This section discusses the seismic hazard methodology, presents the final seismic hazard results used in the Seismic PRA, and discusses important assumptions and important sources of uncertainty.

The seismic hazard analysis determines the annual frequency of exceedance for selected ground motion parameters. The analysis involves use of earthquake source models, ground motion attenuation models, characterization of the site response (e.g. soil column), and accounts for the uncertainties and randomness of these parameters to arrive at the site seismic hazard. Detailed information regarding the WBN site hazard was provided to NRC in the seismic hazard information submitted to NRC in response to the NTTF 2.1 Seismic information request [3]. As further discussed below, a supplemental seismic hazard analysis has been performed for WBN [19].

Page 10 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 3.2 Seismic Hazard Analysis Methodology Prior to the NTTF 2.1 activities, a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis was initiated to support potential licensing efforts for WBN Unit 2. This analysis [19] was used for the WBN Seismic PRA in lieu of the NTTF 2.1 submittal [3] since the site analysis develops the additional elements required for the Seismic PRA such as Foundation Input Response Spectra (FIRS),

hazard-consistent strain-compatible properties, and vertical ground motions.

To perform the site response analyses for WBN, a random vibration theory approach was employed. This process is consistent with existing NRC guidance and the SPID [2]. The guidance contained in Appendix B of the SPID on incorporating epistemic uncertainty in shear-wave velocities, kappa, non-linear dynamic properties and source spectra was followed for WBN. The GMRS at WBN is defined at the Reactor Building foundation control point at a depth of 64 ft. below plant grade of 728 ft which corresponds to elevation 664 ft mean sea level. FIRS were developed for additional structures at the elevations shown in Table 3.0-1.

The shear wave velocity profiles were very similar to the NTTF 2.1 Seismic Hazard submittal shear wave velocity profiles. Two best case estimate profiles were used to accommodate the dipping nature of the strata beneath the site as shown in Figures 3.2-1 and 3.2-2 for the Reactor Building. In a similar fashion, velocity profiles were developed for the Auxiliary and Control Buildings and the Intake Pumping Station. The depth to the top of the profiles used in the computation of the FIRS for the Auxiliary and Control Building is at a depth of 44 ft below the surface. The top of the profiles for the Intake Pumping Station is at 648 ft at the top of the shale and limestone. The Refueling Water Storage Tank FIRS were computed at an elevation of 728 ft. The top 15 ft is granular backfill with estimated Shear Wave Velocity (Vs) of 1859 ft/sec, which sits atop 15 ft of in situ gravel with Vs of 1500 ft/sec.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 Figure 3.2-2: Reactor Building VS Profile B To accommodate the full range in expected dynamic material behavior for the firm rock profiles, linear analyses, as well as nonlinear analyses, were included in the site response analyses, with equal weights given to each approach. This approach was consistent with the approach of the NTTF 2.1 Seismic Hazard submittal. Nonlinear and linear curves were considered in the analysis for the structures founded on soils as well, with equal weights assigned.

For the Reactor Building, adjusted kappa values and weights were equivalent to values and weights in the NTTF 2.1 Seismic Hazard submittal. For the other structures, differences in the kappa estimates from those as the Reactor Building are quite small (<5%) and not significant in Page 13 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 the estimates of amplification. For vertical ground motion analyses, kappa values were taken at one half the values of the horizontal ground motion analyses.

The results of the site response analyses consist of amplification factors which describe the amplification (or de-amplification) of hard reference rock motion as a function of frequency and input reference rock amplitude. The amplification factors are represented in terms of a median amplification value and an associated standard deviation (sigma) for each oscillator frequency and input rock amplitude. Consistent with the SPID [2], a minimum median amplification value of 0.5 was employed in the present analysis. Table 3.2-1 presents the mean and fractile exceedance frequencies for hard rock at 100 Hz. Figures 3.2-3 through 3.2-6 show example median and +/- one standard deviation horizontal amplification factors.

The GMRS was developed in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.208. The SPID states that thirty randomizations are adequate for the site response; therefore thirty were used instead of sixty. In addition to the GMRS, horizontal and vertical FIRS were developed for those structures denoted in Table 3.0-1. The FIRS were developed following the same approach as the development of the GMRS. Site-specific horizontal hazard curves for each of the FIRS site conditions were used.

The reference earthquake ground motion to which the fragilities are referenced is represented by the horizontal ground motion response spectrum (GMRS) also at the Reactor Building (RB) foundation control point. Due to the seismic ruggedness of WBN, a supplemental analysis was performed to a higher reference earthquake for the Diesel Generator Building (DGB). The DGB is founded on backfill while the other structures are founded on rock. The hazard consistent strain compatible properties for the DGB at a reference earthquake of 5.19 x 10-6 were used for this supplemental analysis.

Peak ground acceleration (PGA) is the ground motion parameter used for the Seismic PRA.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 3.3 Comparison of NTTF 2.1 Seismic Hazard Submittal and PRA Site Analysis The WBN Seismic PRA used the site response analysis documented in [19]. Table 3.3-1 and Figure 3.3-3 provide the vertical and horizontal GMRS.

Figure 3.3-1 and 3.3-2 compare the NTTF 2.1 Seismic Hazard submittal, assessed by the NRC staff [17] [18], with the Seismic PRA Site Analysis.

Figure 3.3-1 compares the mean control point hazard curves at frequencies of 1 Hz, 10 Hz and PGA. The figure shows that the hazard curves compare favorably. The figure also shows that for the 1 Hz and PGA curves, above 0.1 g spectral acceleration, the hazard curve used for the Seismic PRA Site Analysis envelope the hazard curve used for NTTF 2.1 Hazard submittal.

Figure 3.3-2 compares the GMRS and shows that the Seismic PRA Site Analysis [19] compares favorably with the NTTF 2.1 Seismic hazard submittal [3]. Below 10 Hz, the figure shows that the Seismic PRA Site Analysis conforms closely to the NTTF 2.1 Information. From 10 Hz to 40 Hz, the figure shows that the Seismic PRA Site Analysis has a slightly higher peak than the NTTF 2.1 Information. Above 40 Hz, the plot shows that the Seismic PRA Site Analysis envelopes the NTTF 2.1 Seismic Hazard submittal.

The development of the V/H ratios is documented in [19]. Table 3.3-1 and Figure 3.3-3 provide the vertical and horizontal GMRS.

3.3.2 Seismic Hazard Analysis Technical Adequacy The WBN Seismic PRA hazard methodology and analysis was subjected to an independent peer review against the pertinent requirements in the PRA Standard [4]. The Seismic PRA was peer reviewed relative to Capability Category II for the full set of requirements in the Standard.

After completion of the subsequent independent assessment, the full set of supporting requirements was met. The seismic hazard analysis was determined to be acceptable for use in the Seismic PRA.

The peer review assessment, and subsequent disposition of peer review findings through an independent assessment, is further described in Appendix A and references [6] and [20].

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 3.3.3 Seismic Hazard Analysis Results and Insights Table 3.2-1 provides the final seismic hazard results used as input to the WBN Seismic PRA, in terms of exceedance frequencies as a function of PGA level for the mean and several fractiles at hard rock.

3.3.4 Uncertainties in the seismic hazard result from input parameters and models.

Background sources closer to WBN were found to have a large contribution to the high frequency 10 Hz spectral acceleration hazard. Repeated large magnitude earthquakes (RLME) located much further from WBN contribute to the low frequency 1 Hz spectral acceleration hazard. The most significant RLMEs to WBN are the New Madrid Fault System and Charleston with the New Madrid Fault System being the dominant RLME source. Sensitivities of the hard rock hazard to the ground motion models have been investigated.

Sensitivities of the hard rock hazard to the ground motion models and most significant portions of the seismic source model were performed. The sensitivity analyses indicate a large uncertainty in the rock hazard due to the suite of ground motion models. Also, the sensitivity analyses indicate that the ground motion models for the background seismic source zones and the seismicity rates for the dominant background zone dominate the uncertainty in the PGA.

A review was performed on new information since the earthquake catalog was published in 2012. This review considers post-2012 seismologic, geologic, and geophysical information.

Since the WBN Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) was completed in early 2014, additional newer studies for catalog updates at Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) sites located in close proximity to WBN (less than 40 miles) were used for evaluation of new information.

Comprehensive studies for Clinch River site evaluated data up to mid-September 2013 while Sequoyah nuclear site studies considered data up to January 31, 2015. After the review and studies of the new information, it was concluded that the Central and Eastern United States (CEUS) Seismic Source Characterization model did not require an update.

A simplification of the CEUS Seismic Source Characterization model for input into the model software was made for computational efficiency. All background sources were simplified to point sources without fault orientation, dip or width. Justification for this simplification is provided in [32] which illustrated insignificant impact on hazard with an Annual Frequency of Exceedance (AFE) of 10-5 and larger. In addition, for each individual background zone, the average b-value was used instead of individual b-values for each grid cell. A comparison of hazard at the TVA Clinch River site computed using this simplification and without this simplification indicates a difference in hazard of 3% at 10-5.

3.3.5 Horizontal and Vertical GMRS This section provides the control point horizontal and vertical GMRS.

The GMRS at the control point is plotted in Figure 3.3-3. The development of the control point response spectra is summarized in Section 3.2 and further described in detail in the WBN PSHA report [19].

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 Figure 3.3-3 Plot of the Horizontal and Vertical Ground Motions Response Spectra and V/H Ratios 4.0 Determination of Seismic Fragilities for the Seismic PRA This section provides a summary of the process for identifying and developing fragilities for SSCs that participate in the plant response to a seismic event for the WBN Seismic PRA. The subsections provide brief summaries of these elements.

4.1 Seismic Equipment List For the WBN Seismic PRA, a seismic equipment list (SEL) was developed that includes those SSCs that are important to achieving safe shutdown following a seismic event, and to mitigating radioactivity release if core damage occurs, and that are included in the Seismic PRA model.

The guidance provided in PRA Standard [4], PRA Procedures Guide [33], EPRI 30020007091

[10] and NTTF 2.3 Walkdown Guidance [34] was used in development of SEL.

The comprehensive SEL was developed by starting with the list of components modeled in the WBN internal events probabilistic risk assessment (IEPRA). That list was then augmented by reviewing equipment contained in the WBN Individual Plant Examination of External Events (IPEEE) safe shutdown equipment lists (SSELs) and the seismic walkdown equipment list. In addition, a separate effort was conducted by the Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) analyst to identify instrumentation needed by operators to support actions modeled in the IEPRA.

Components typically not modeled in IEPRAs such as cable trays, conduits, motor control centers, electrical cabinets and panels, Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC)

Page 25 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 ducting, and piping were identified and included in the SEL. The SEL was also updated after the seismic walkdowns to incorporate additional items such as block walls. The final comprehensive SEL includes any additional SSCs identified after the seismic walkdowns (i.e.

relay and breaker chatter events that could not be screened). The SEL includes structures, buildings and substructures, which either contain safety-related equipment or whose failure could impact safety functions or cause a reactor trip. The SEL includes Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) components and components required for containment integrity.

The resulting SEL includes about 2,100 component entries for each unit and about 650 component entries that are shared between the units. The final SEL was documented for the Seismic PRA in [21].

4.1.1 Relay Evaluation Separate relay chatter studies were performed for each WBN unit to identify relays whose chatter might occur and impact the safety functions of equipment [22] [23]. The studies started with a list of all relays contained in the WBN component database. Those studies identified relays whose contact chatter could not be screened based on evaluation of impact to safety-related equipment in the plant. These relays are listed in Table 4.1-1. These relays were evaluated for contact chatter fragility.

Fragility analysis results for those relays for Units 1 and 2 are summarized the fragility analysis report [25]. The final WBN Seismic PRA model quantification uses a fragility cutoff of Am > 3.5 g.

One class of relays had a chatter fragility with Am < 3.5 g (0-22-Relay Chatter-MDR with Am =

3.4 g). However, impacts of chatter for the unscreened relays with Am < 3.5 were reevaluated and determined to impact only main feedwater, which is not credited in the Seismic PRA.

Therefore, no relay chatter events were included in the Seismic PRA model.

The impacts of the low-voltage circuit breaker chatter events were implemented in the Seismic PRA model by including the four breakers connecting the step down transformers to the 480 Volts (V) shutdown boards. With complete seismic correlation of these breakers, all AC power to these boards is lost. Similarly, impacts of the medium-voltage circuit breaker chatter events were implemented in the Seismic PRA model by including the four breakers connecting the two 6.9 kV shutdown boards to the four step-down transformers feeding the 480V shutdown boards.

There are analogous breakers for Unit 1 that are included in the Unit 1 Seismic PRA model.

Walkdowns were performed by personnel with appropriate qualifications as defined in the SPID. Walkdowns of those SSCs included on the seismic equipment list were performed, as part of the development of the SEL, and to assess the as-installed condition of these SSCs for use in determining their seismic capacity and performing initial screening.

Walkdowns were performed in accordance with guidance in SPID Section 6.5 and the associated requirements in the PRA Standard. Equipment anchorage, lateral seismic support, spatial interactions and potential systems interactions (both structural and functional interactions) were considered during the walkdowns.

During the development of the WBN Seismic PRA, WBN Unit 2 was under construction and has since received an operating license. The walkdowns providing detailed information to support the Seismic PRA were conducted during Unit 2 construction while there was access to the entire unit. WBN has extensive seismic qualification programs that were implemented prior to licensing. The implementation of the Integrated Interaction Program (IIP) included extensive walkdown efforts. In addition, the IPEEE also involved extensive walkdown efforts. While the IPEEE program is dated for most utilities, the WBN Unit 2 IPEEE was only recently completed for WBN Unit 2 licensing. These walkdowns were able to be directly utilized for the Seismic PRA for Unit 2 and were indirectly utilized for Unit 1 in helping to inform Unit 1 walkdowns. Additional Seismic PRA specific walkdowns were conducted to inform the fragility evaluations and confirm previous extensive walkdowns performed by TVA for IPEEE and IIP.

The WBN Integrated Interaction Program IIP focuses on potential seismic systems interactions.

The IPP scope includes the seismic systems interaction concerns of impact, structural failure and falling, spray, flexibility of commodities that cross independent structures, and shake-space interactions. The WBN Seismic PRA determined that the WBN worst-case bounding interactions from the IIP have capacities in excess of those for governing plant commodities.

Page 29 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 The WBN Seismic PRA walkdowns included selected samples of the distribution systems such as piping, cable trays, electrical conduits and HVAC ducting. The walkdown of selected samples of distribution systems served two purposes. First, the walkdowns provided information for evaluation of fragilities for distributed systems. Second, the walkdowns confirmed the IIP conclusions for distributed systems.

No component capacity screening was performed for WBN because the WBN GMRS seismic hazard is considerably higher than the available industry tools for seismic capacity screening.

The purpose of the WBN Seismic PRA walkdown was to evaluate as-designed, as-built, and as-operated plant conditions, in order to identify seismic vulnerabilities and to ensure that the seismic fragilities were realistic and plant specific. The walkdown focused on potential functional and structural failure modes, equipment anchorage, support load path, and potential risk significant seismic interactions including proximity impacts, falling hazards, and differential displacements.

4.2.1 Significant Walkdown Results and Insights Consistent with the guidance from NP 6041-SL [7], no significant findings or adverse conditions were noted during the WBN seismic walkdowns.

Components on the SEL (that were not previously screened) were evaluated for seismic anchorage and interaction effects, effects of component degradation, such as corrosion and concrete cracking, for consideration in the development of SEL fragilities. In addition, walkdowns were performed on operator pathways, and the potential for seismic-induced fire and flooding scenarios was assessed. Potential internal flood scenarios were incorporated into the WBN Seismic PRA model. The walkdown observations were adequate for use in developing the SSC fragilities for the Seismic PRA.

4.2.2 Seismic Equipment List and Seismic Walkdowns Technical Adequacy The WBN Seismic PRA SEL development [21] and walkdowns [27] were subjected to an independent peer review against the pertinent requirements in the PRA Standard [4]. The SEL development and walkdowns were peer reviewed relative to Capability Category II for the full set of supporting requirements in the Standard. After completion of the subsequent independent assessment, the full set of supporting requirements was met and the SEL and walkdowns were determined to be acceptable for use in the Seismic PRA.

The peer review assessment, and subsequent disposition of peer review findings through an independent assessment, is further described in Appendix A and references [6] and [20].

4.3 Dynamic Analysis of Structures This section summarizes the dynamic analysis of structures that contain systems and components important to achieving a safe shutdown [26]. A list of structures and description of relevant parameters is provided in Table 4.3-1.

4.3.1 Fixed-base Analysis North Steam Valve Rooms (NSVRs)

Page 30 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 The NSVRs (one NSVR per unit) protect the isolation valves of the main steam lines and the main feed water lines from the effects of tornados and earthquakes, as well as provide support for the valves, main steam lines, and main feed water lines that exit from the Shield Building (SB). The NSVRs are relatively small structures located on the north side of the much larger RB U1 and U2. A two-inch expansion joint separates the NSVR from the RB. The total weight of the NSVR is approximately 15,000 kips. In comparison, the total weight of the RB is about 123,000 kips.

Based on the above characteristics, the seismic analysis of the NSVR assumes fixed-base foundation conditions subjected to the seismic motion of the RB at elevations below grade. In other words, the NSVRs are treated much like a piece of equipment mounted on the SB wall.

4.3.2 Soil Structure Interaction Analysis 4.3.2.1 Structures founded on firm rock Auxiliary-Control Building (ACB), Reactor Building (RB) and Intake Pumping Station (IPS)

The best estimate soil profile is used in the Soil Structure Interaction (SSI) analysis of the ACB, RB, and the IPS. Because these structures are founded on firm rock, with average Vs of about 5,900 ft/s, overlaying hard rock the soil/rock structure interaction effects are expected to be small and to not significantly influence the seismic response of the structures. Therefore, a best estimate soil profile is appropriate for use in the SSI analysis of the ACB, RB, and the IPS. The use of a best estimate soil profile in the SSI analysis is supported by Appendix C of [2] which shows that the fixed-base assumption ignoring SSI may be appropriate for sites with Vs > 5,200 ft/s.

The seismic analysis of the ACB, RB, and IPS account for the effects of SSI on the seismic response of the building structure. The analytical model for the SSI analysis combines the SAP2000 Finite Element Model (FEM) and the analytical representation of the supporting foundation medium. It accounts for the interaction of the foundation mat with the flexibility of the subsurface material, and included both kinematic interaction due to the foundation mat stiffness and inertial interaction due to the structure mass.

The SSI analysis utilizes the System for Analysis for Soil-Structure Interaction (SASSI) program, developed in the 1980s, at the University of California Berkley.

SASSI represents the geotechnical medium by a uniform or horizontally-layered elastic to viscoelastic soil system overlaying a uniform elastic half space. The stiffness and damping characteristics of the soil layers are represented by strain-compatible soil properties presented in PSHA without further modification. The program substructures the soil-structure system into; (1) The free-field soil medium before excavation.

(2) The excavated soil volume to be replaced by the structural element.

(3) The building structure, including its foundation.

It then solves the equations of motion representing the seismic SSI response in the frequency domain at selected analysis frequencies. The resulting transfer functions are then interpolated Page 31 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 to obtain transfer functions for the full set of frequencies in the Fourier transform of the input motion. Because the solution of the equations of motion is obtained in the frequency domain, the SSI analysis is linear. The analysis in the two horizontal directions and the vertical direction are performed separately.

4.3.2.1.1 Incoherent Ground Motion Because of the larger footprint, the In Structure Response Spectra (ISRS) for the ACB reflect incoherent ground motion.

4.3.2.2 Structures not founded on firm rock Diesel Generator Building The DGB is founded on crushed rock (refer to Table 4.3-1). A multi-case deterministic SSI analysis of the DGB was developed for the WBN Seismic PRA. In order to perform the multi-case deterministic analysis, the structure and soil are first developed with median-centered material properties (structure and soil) and thus meant to represent a best (versus conservative) estimate of the structure - at a hazard level corresponding to an AFE of 5.19 X 10-6, with peak ground acceleration of 1.393g. Subsequently, soil and structure properties of the median-centered model are each individually varied to account for structure and soil variability separately.

For the development of the best estimate Soil Structure Interaction (SSI) model, the median soil and rock properties from the PSHA consistent with an AFE of 5.19 X 10-6 were used. Upper bound and lower bound properties are provided as the 84th percentile and 16thpercentile hazard consistent strain compatible properties from the recent PSHA. These are used for the development of the varied DGB SSI models.

In the multi-case deterministic approach, five SSI analyses are performed. Each soil/structure case is analyzed with five time histories; this results in a total of 25 sets of response spectra.

Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST)

The RWST is founded on granular backfill (refer to Table 4.3-1).

For the RWST, the SSI analysis uses Best Estimate (BE), Lower Bound (LB), and Upper Bound (UB) strain compatible soil profiles from the PSHA report. Due to passage frequency requirement, the layering of the soil profiles had to be adjusted by combining adjacent layers or dividing the layers. In those cases, the S-wave and P-wave velocities were adjusted. The acceleration time histories compatible to the FIRS were used. The structure is analyzed as a surface mounted structure.

The structural model of the RWST for SSI analysis consists of the tank Lumped Mass Stick Model (LMSM) that simulates the tank steel structure, horizontal and vertical oscillators that simulate the sloshing and vertical impulsive modes, solid elements that simulate the basemat, beam elements that simulate the shear key, and rigid beam elements that connect the tank LMSM to the basemat.

4.3.3 Structure Response Models The existing, design basis structural models were evaluated against the SPID requirements for structure modeling. For four structures; ACB, DGB, NSVR, and IPS; the existing LMSMs do not Page 32 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 satisfy SPID requirements because of structural asymmetry, floor diaphragm flexibility, effects of concrete cracking and distribution of floor mass that was only approximately represented in the LMSM. For these four structures new 3D finite element models were developed. The new 3D finite element models satisfy SPID requirements for structure modeling and incorporated the geometry, configuration, and dimensions of the structural components of the building such as the foundation and floor slabs, walls and openings Two structures, RWST and RB, use the LMSM reported in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR). The use of the LMSM for the RWST satisfies SPID requirements because the structure is relatively simple and symmetric. The RB includes three structural systems [SB, Steel Containment Vessel (SCV), and Interior Concrete Structure/ Nuclear Steam Supply System (ICS/NSSS)] supported by a common foundation mat. The SB, SCV, and the ICS/NSSS are represented by LMSMs developed earlier and reported in the FSAR. The use of LMSMs for the SB and SCV is justified on the basis that these structures are relatively simple and symmetric. The LMSM for the ICS is verified and validated by means of independent evaluations using FEMs. The strategy of using the previous LMSM for the RB credits much of the previous extensive modeling effort, particularly the coupling of the NSSS system to the ICS.

4.3.3.1 Structural Damping Values Although a higher damping value may be justified for some components, a concrete damping of seven percent is used assuming Damage Level 2 [31]. Steel damping is taken to be four per cent. These damping values are somewhat conservatively biased relative to the likely damage state associated with the median seismic capacities for the SSCs.

4.3.3.2 Concrete cracking Consistent with the expected response levels of the structures at ground levels dominating seismic risk, the effective stiffness of the structure is represented by cracked section properties recommended in [31]. The flexural and shear stiffness values are considered to be 0.5 X gross un-cracked flexural and shear stiffness values. The axial stiffness is maintained at 1.0 X gross un-cracked axial stiffness.

4.3.3.3 ISRS ACB, RB, IPS The ISRS developed from dynamic analysis are median for the ACB, Reactor Building, and Intake Pumping Station.

ISRS at selected locations are obtained separately due to three directions of input motion (X, Y, and Z). The resulting response spectra are then combined using Square-Root-Sum-of-Squares (SRSS). For example, the three ISRS at a specific location in the NS direction resulting from ground motion input, respectively in the NS, EW, and vertical directions are combined using SRSS.

With the exception of the ACB, the ISRS results are developed considering coherent ground motion. Because of the larger footprint, the ISRS developed for the ACB reflect incoherent ground motion.

4.3.3.4 ISRS DGB For the DGB, both median and 84th percentile ISRS were developed from the dynamic analysis.

Page 33 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 In the multi-case deterministic approach, five SSI analyses are performed. Each soil/structure case is analyzed with five time histories; this results in a total of 25 sets of response spectra.

For each analysis case, the outputs obtained from the five time histories are averaged, thus resulting in 5 sets of ISRS. Two sets of ISRS are provided for each area; (1) Median and (2)

Conservative (~84thpercentile). These are obtained, respectively, by (1) averaging the five averaged sets of ISRS, and (2) enveloping the five averaged sets of ISRSs, and filling in the valleys.

were subjected to an independent peer review against the pertinent requirements in the PRA Page 35 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 Standard [4]. The seismic structure response and soil structure interaction was peer reviewed relative to Capability Category II for the full set of requirements in the Standard. After completion of the subsequent independent assessment, the full set of requirements was met and the seismic structure response and soil structure interaction were determined to be acceptable for use in the Seismic PRA.

The peer review assessment, and subsequent disposition of peer review findings through an independent assessment, is further described in Appendix A and references [6] and [20].

4.3.5 SSC Fragility Analysis The SSC seismic fragility analysis considers the impact of seismic events on the probability of SSC failures at a given value of a seismic motion parameter defined as peak ground acceleration (PGA). The fragilities of the SSCs that participate in the Seismic PRA accident sequences, i.e., those included on the seismic equipment list (SEL) are addressed in the model.

Seismic fragilities for the significant risk contributors (i.e., those which have an important contribution to plant risk, are realistic and plant-specific based on actual current conditions of the SSCs in the plant) are confirmed through the detailed walkdown of the plant.

This section summarizes the fragility analysis methodology, presents a tabulation of the fragilities (with appropriate parameters (e.g., Am, r, u) and the calculation method and failure modes) for those SSCs determined to be sufficiently risk important, based on the final Seismic PRA quantification (as summarized in Section 5) [25]. Important assumptions and important sources of uncertainty, and any particular fragility-related insights identified, are also discussed.

4.3.6 SSC Screening Approach 4.3.6.1 Rugged Components Certain components are inherently rugged and consequently have a very low probability of failing as a result of a seismic event. Consistent with long-standing practice in seismic PRAs, seismic failure of such components need not be included in the PRA logic models. Exclusion of such SSCs from the logic models does not affect seismic CDF of LERF or the insights derived from the seismic PRA. Guidance in the SPID and other industry documents was followed for identifying seismically rugged components.

Components considered to be durable or rugged include dampers, filters, check valves, hand operated valves, relief valves, safety heads (rupture disks), and strainers.

4.3.6.2 Piping outside containment connecting to the Reactor Coolant System (RCS)

A review of piping connected to the RCS and extending outside containment was performed to identify lines which if ruptured outside containment and not isolated might contribute significantly to CDF and/or LERF. These piping lines include lines and evaluated for ISLOCA and breaks outside containment in the Internal Events PRA. Frequencies of seismically induced piping rupture and failure of isolation valves were estimated conservatively for the lines. These lines were screened (not included in the Seismic PRA) if the frequency of rupture and failure of isolation valves was less than 1E-9/y. The screening level < 0.1% of both CDF and LERF. The Chemical Volume and Control System letdown line, Residual Heat Removal (RHR) supply line, and seal water and letdown lines did not screen. Therefore, seismically induced ruptures of those lines were included in the Seismic PRA model.

Page 36 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 4.3.6.3 Screening Components in Non-Category I Structures Several components on the SEL are mounted in Non-Category I structures. These structures and components are not credited on the basis that a nominally low bounding fragility shows that these SSCs are not significant contributors to risk. It is assumed in the base case Seismic PRA model that non-safety-related components fail. Sensitivity Case 7 assigned these components a High Confidence of Low Probability of Failure (HCLPF) = 0.4. The change in CDF was ~0.0%

and the change in LERF was ~0.1%.

4.3.6.3.1 Reactor Protection System The Reactor Protection System (RPS) is designed to be fail-safe. As such, the system presents a scenario in which component failures generally cause a partial or complete scram signal, rather than prevent a scram signal. Also, the RPS has significant diversity in terms of available scram signals. Therefore, the electrical portion of the RPS is not assigned a fragility.

4.3.6.3.2 Excessive settlement Because all structures at WBN are supported on competent rock or backfill material, excessive settlements and bearing capacity failures are screened out.

4.3.6.3.3 Rule-of-the Box Except for relays and breakers, components mounted on other components are screened by the rule-of-the-box. Examples include level indicators inside tanks, transmitters mounted on a local instrument rack, and switches mounted on a rack or panel. These components are still addressed in the fragility analysis, but no specific fragility was calculated for them; instead, they are assigned the fragility of the box on which they are mounted.

4.3.7 SSC Fragility Analysis Methodology Consistent with the requirements in ASME/ANS PRA Standard [4], the fragility analysis for the selected SSCs is based on the methodology in EPRI guidelines. The strategy for developing the fragilities for the complete set of SSCs on the Seismic PRA SEL follows the recommendations of EPRI NP-6041-SL [7], EPRI 1019200 [28], and EPRI 103959 [29] and proceeds progressively from using experienced-based capacities to component-specific-evaluations. Regardless of the method, the development of fragility estimates use plant-specific information based on SSC conditions, as confirmed through detailed walkdowns.

Components are first binned into equipment classes, e.g. EPRI classes presented in Appendix F of EPRI NP 6041-SL [7] and then grouped according to similarity and location.

Representative samples in each equipment group are then evaluated to obtain fragility estimates for all the items in the group.

To obtain fragility estimates, the WBN Seismic PRA uses the Conservative Deterministic Failure Margin (CDFM) approach described in EPRI NP-6041-SL [7] and EPRI 1019200[28]. Briefly, the CDFM approach first determines the seismic demand on the plant SSCs due to the GMRS.

It then compares this response to the mounting-level failure capacities of SSCs. Failure of a component is defined broadly as loss of component function. Because of the manner in which the demand and capacities are developed the CDFM method results in HCLPF level capacities.

The fragility analysis obtains HCLPF capacities of components, and then uses these in Page 37 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 conjunction with randomness and uncertainty variables (r and u) to estimate median acceleration capacities (Am).

The Seismic PRA quantification based on the initial set of fragilities identifies the relative importance of items to CDF and LERF and provides the basis to focus on refining fragilities for components that contribute significantly to the CDF and LERF. Following the initial quantification, the fragilities of contributing components are re-evaluated based on plant specific and component-specific information such as test response spectra and qualification analysis, and improved analytical models. Possible conservatisms, either in the fragilities or in the systems analysis, are targeted for improvement.

Critical failure modes were identified, structure/anchorage or functionality or block wall and fragility calculations were performed for the median capacity Am. The lowest, governing Am was selected.

The nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) was evaluated for fragility variables. The NSSS includes the reactor vessel, the steam generators, the reactor coolant pumps, a pressurizer, and the piping that connects these components to the reactor vessel. The fragility evaluation of these components was based on scaling of the existing safety analysis results, in accordance with SPID guidance.

4.3.8 SSC Fragility Analysis Results and Insights The final set of fragilities for the risk important contributors to CDF and LERF are summarized in Section 5, Tables 5.4-3 and 5.4-4 (for CDF) and Tables 5.5-3 and 5.5-4 (for LERF). Detailed separation of variables (SoV) calculations have been performed for selected high risk significant SSCs and those are denoted in the tables, as applicable.

4.3.9 SSC Fragility Analysis Technical Adequacy The WBN Seismic PRA SSC Fragility Analysis [25] was subjected to an independent peer review against the pertinent requirements in the PRA Standard [4]. The SSC fragility analysis was peer reviewed relative to Capability Category II for the full set of supporting requirements in the standard. After completion of the subsequent independent assessment [20], the full set of supporting requirements were met and the SSC fragility analysis was determined to be acceptable for use in the Seismic PRA.

The peer review assessment, and subsequent disposition and closure of peer review findings through an independent assessment, is further described in Appendix A and references [6] and

[20].

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 5.0 Plant Seismic Logic Model The seismic plant response analysis models the various combinations of structural, equipment, and human failures given the occurrence of a seismic event that could initiate and propagate a seismic core damage or large early release sequence. This model is quantified to determine the overall CDF and LERF and to identify the important contributors, e.g., important accident sequences, SSC failures, and human actions. The quantification process also includes an evaluation of sources of uncertainty and provides a perspective on how such sources of uncertainty affect Seismic PRA insights.

5.1 Development of the Seismic PRA Plant Seismic Logic Model The WBN seismic response model was developed by starting with the WBN internal events at power PRA model of record as of January 2014 , and adapting the model in accordance with guidance in the SPID [2] and PRA Standard [4], including the addition of seismic fragility-related basic events to the appropriate portions of the internal events PRA, eliminating some parts of the internal events model that do not apply or that were screened-out, and adjusting the internal events PRA model human reliability analysis to account for response during and following a seismic event. This modeling approach leaves the IEPRA model logic intact while incorporating the necessary additions required for the Seismic PRA. The model is developed using the EPRI Risk and Reliability Workstation software suite (CAFTA, FRANX, HRA Calculator, and UNCERT). The permanently installed 480V Flexible and Diverse Coping Strategies (FLEX) diesel generators and the 6.9kV FLEX diesel generators are credited in the model. Both random and seismic-induced failures of modeled SSCs are included.

5.1.1 Seismic Initiating Event The seismic initiating event was modeled using 8 discrete hazard bins based on increasing peak ground acceleration. The seismic hazard bins are listed in Table 5.1-1. Each bin is treated as a seismic initiator and the CDF and LERF results are summed over all the bins to obtain the total CDF and LERF.

The bin ranges were chosen such that the first bin covers the PGA range from the Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) to the Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE), while the second covers the range from the SSE to a common review level earthquake (RLE) of 0.3g.

The OBE, the strongest earthquake at which the plant is designed to be able to continue normal operation, is defined as 0.09g. Below 0.09g, no significant seismic impacts are expected. The safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) is defined as an acceleration of 0.18g. The plant is seismically designed such that safety-related equipment should not fail given an SSE.

%G8 >3.00 -------- ------------- Unbounded bin 5.1.2 Accident Sequences The internal events PRA (IEPRA) uses event trees (ETs) to model the potential plant responses to initiating events (IEs). The seismic PRA (Seismic PRA) uses the same approach. The Seismic PRA uses a seismic initiating event tree (SIET) to partition the seismic initiating event into accident sequence types typically modeled in the IEPRA. Transfers can then be made from the SIET to the corresponding IEPRA ETs to model plant response.

The SIET top events include the recommended minimum set of initiating events listed in NUREG/CR-4840 except for the initial status of the power conversion system. No credit is taken for non-safety-related equipment such as the power conversion system in the WBN Seismic PRA base case. A sensitivity analysis indicates essentially no change to CDF or LERF if non-safety-related equipment is credited.

An additional top event involving seismically induced direct core damage is included in the SIET. The sequence leads directly to core damage and therefore does not transfer to an IEPRA ET. Structural failures of the reactor building (RB), auxiliary control building (ACB), or diesel generator building (DGB) combined with a loss of offsite power (LOOP) are assumed to lead directly to core damage. Reactor vessel ruptures or other excessive Loss of Coolant Accidents (LOCA) are also assumed to lead to core damage. Structural support failures of the reactor pressure vessel, pressurizer, or steam generator are assumed to lead directly to core damage.

Finally, seismic failure of the control room resulting in operator abandonment and failure to shut down the plant remotely is assumed to lead to core damage.

5.1.3 Loss of Offsite Power The fragility of seismically induced LOOP resulting from switchyard or grid failures was obtained from Table 6-1 in NUREG/CR-6544 [9]. Seismic-induced LOOP is predicted to occur at 0.3g.

The predicted failure mode is failure of ceramic insulators in the switchyard. Use of this fragility for seismically induced LOOP is a standard industry practice for plants in the eastern portion of Page 40 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 the US. The path for transmission of offsite power to safety-related equipment and non-safety-related equipment within the plant was considered to be governed by the fragility for seismically induced offsite power. This includes any paths through the Turbine Building (TB). Note that seismically induced LOOP is assumed to fail both switchyards (complete seismic correlation).

The Seismic PRA takes no credit for recovery of offsite power.

5.1.4 Very Small LOCA Seismic PRAs need to consider whether a coincident very small LOCA needs to be modeled for other SIET sequences. For other LOCA sequences (Small, Medium, Large, and Interfacing System), the addition of a coincident very small LOCA would have no impact because the other LOCA modeled is already larger than a very small LOCA. Also, the direct core damage events modeled are not impacted by a very small LOCA because they are assumed to go directly to core damage and early release. Inclusion of a coincident very small LOCA might potentially impact accident progression and success for SIET sequences of general transient, steam generator tube rupture, secondary side break inside containment, and secondary side break outside containment. However, the fragility analysis determined that the seismic capacity for the very small LOCA was very high (Am=3.65g). A sensitivity study [12] was performed in which all accident sequences originally not leading to core damage or large early release were assigned a very small LOCA initiating event with its associated fragility of 3.65 g. These sequences were assumed to result directly in core damage or large early release. This resulted in very small increases in CDF and LERF. Therefore, not assuming a coincident very small LOCA for four of the SIET sequences is justified.

5.1.5 Median Ground Acceleration (Am)

Often, the large number of component fragilities makes the Seismic PRA model difficult to quantify. This is a software and computer hardware limitation typically encountered when quantifying complex Seismic PRA models. To address the limitation, the final CDF and LERF quantifications did not include component fragilities with Am > 3.5g. The fragility truncation limit was not applied to seismically induced failures modeled in the SIET logic. To evaluate the effect of the fragility truncation limit, a sensitivity study was performed. The sensitivity study was performed by adding a single event to the Seismic PRA as direct core damage event with Am =

3.5 g. The sensitivity analysis indicated that such an event increased CDF by 0.8% and LERF by 1.1%.

Refer to Section 5.7 Seismic PRA Quantification Sensitivity Analysis for additional information.

5.1.6 Approach to modeling containment performance The Seismic PRA considered three seismically induced failure mechanisms that might result in a loss of containment of integrity [2].

The first mechanism involves a gross failure of the containment pressure boundary due to seismic events. Potential failure modes include failure of the basemat in shear and bending, failure of the liner, failure of reinforcing bars, failure of containment walls in transverse shear, and failure due to the interaction of containment and auxiliary structures. These failure modes are assumed to progress directly to core damage, are assigned to a containment bypass accident class, and are assigned to LERF.

Page 41 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 The second mechanism involves the failure of the containment to isolate and to maintain isolation following a seismic event. Implied in this failure are the mechanism are the earthquake results in other internal failures that would necessitate automatic containment isolation.

Potential failure modes include mechanical failure of isolation valves and control circuity failures affecting isolation valves. These failure types have been addressed by the assignment of fragility identifiers to all components/basic events that can be impacted by a seismic event.

The third mechanism involves the loss of pressure boundary integrity from containment penetrations. Earthquakes of large magnitude could result in the failure of piping bellows or electrical penetrations. The integrity of personnel air locks, equipment hatches, and escape locks could also be affected. Seismically induced loss of pressure boundary of containment penetrations was addressed by a fragility assessment of containment penetrations and the addition representative events within the Level 2 model.

5.1.7 Summary of Resulting Correlated Component Groupings Correlation of components (or common cause failure) is considered in accordance with the ASME/ANS PRA Standard [4]. There are insufficient data on correlation of seismic failures of similar components in similar locations and alignments to perform sophisticated seismic correlations in Seismic PRAs. Instead, a common practice is to assume complete seismic correlation for these groups of similar components, locations, and alignments.

The base Seismic PRA results involve complete seismic correlation within fragility groups. If all seismically correlated groups are set to uncorrelated, then CDF increases 7.3% and LERF is increased 17.8%. Often CDF and LERF are reduced with this type of sensitivity analysis.

However, the WBN Seismic PRA model has sufficient failure events leading directly to CDF and LERF such that un-correlating those groups results in increases rather than decreases.

5.1.8 Summary of HRA methodology Guidance for this analysis came from the EPRI report A Preliminary Approach to Human Reliability Analysis for External Events with a Focus on Seismic [30]. Human Failure Events (HFEs) from the IEPRA were the starting point as documented in the HRA Calculator database.

Four sets of human error probabilities (HEPs) were generated for each of the HFEs, based on the damage states defined in the EPRI document.

The IEPRA HRA Calculator database was the starting point for the SHRA task. All HFEs contained in the database were screened for applicability to the Seismic PRA. Non-applicable HFEs were excluded from the SHRA task and applicable HFEs were included in the SHRA task

[8].

Development of screening HEPs involved application of multipliers to the IEPRA HEPs to account for additional stress, communication, timing, and access issues resulting from seismic events.

Risk significant HFEs were analyzed with detailed HRA, in accordance with the guidance in EPRI 10025294 [30]. After initial quantification of the WBN Seismic PRA model, HFEs were identified as risk significant. The definition of a risk significant HFE is having a Fussell-Vesely (FV) >= 5E-03 or a Risk Achievement Worth (RAW) >= 2. The EPRI approach for seismic HRA directs the detailed analysis of HFEs to be performed in two parts: qualitative and quantitative analysis. In practice these are done in tandem for each HFE and the starting point for the WBN seismic HRA is the IEPRA HRA. Detailed analysis was performed for EPRI damage states 1 Page 42 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 through 3 for the initially risk significant HFEs. No detailed analysis was performed for EPRI damage state 4, as all HEPs in this damage state were set to 1.0 due to the damage state and the uncertainty of instrumentation availability. Where necessary, the seismic HFE analysis was updated to use the most state of the art HRA methods.

Instrumentation, and therefore the cues for operator actions, was assumed to be available for EPRI Bins 1-3, and unavailable for EPRI Bin 4 when determining HEPs. For EPRI Bins 1-3, the seismic impact on instrumentation was accounted for in the fault tree logic by combining the HEPs with the hazard bin specific probability of failure of instrumentation. The probability of instrumentation failure for each hazard bin was obtained by combining the fragilities of the most sensitive critical instrumentation parameter component with the fragility of instrumentation power supply. If instrumentation was not available, then no credit was taken for operator actions. This modeling approach was used for both screening and refined HEPs in the Seismic PRA model.

After initial quantification of the WBN Seismic PRA model, HFEs were identified as risk significant. The definition of a risk significant HFE is having an FV > 5E-03 or RAW > 2. Risk significant HFEs were analyzed with detailed HRA, in accordance with the guidance in EPRI 10025294 [30].

Accessibility for HFEs performed outside the control room was addressed by walkdowns.

5.1.9 Seismic-Fire EPRI 3002000709, Seismic PRA Implementation Guide, [10] guidelines in Appendix G of that document were followed in the identification and assessment of potential seismic-fire interaction events. That effort included an assessment of fire ignition sources categorized as medium or higher in Appendix G of that document and additional sources identified in the IPEEE/FSAR.

The results of the assessments indicated none of those events needed to be included in the Seismic PRA because: (1) such events would not impact safety-related equipment; (2) impacts are already covered by fragility assignments; or (3) EPRI assessed such events as having a low potential for seismically induced fire.

The seismic walkdown also included a review for potential seismic-fire interaction events. No seismic-fire interaction events were identified from those walkdowns that needed to be included in the Seismic PRA model.

5.1.10 Seismic-Flood Seismic-flood interaction events were identified by both a review and screening of internal flood scenarios from the IEPRA and inspections during the seismic walkdowns. The walkdowns did not identify any additional seismic-flood interaction events beyond the IEPRA internal flood scenarios identified.

The identification of seismically-induced internal flood scenarios included both a review of the IEPRA piping-related scenarios and a review of RB and ACB tank and heat exchanger contributions to those scenarios. In general, TB scenarios were screened based on no propagation to the ACB. However, one TB internal flood scenario has the potential to be significant in the Seismic PRA because of its low piping fragility and potential to propagate to the ACB. The scenario involves seismically induced rupture of the condenser circulating water piping within the TB. This rupture is gravity fed from the cooling tower basin. This scenario has Page 43 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 the potential to propagate into the ACB once the water in the TB rises to a certain level. This flood scenario was included in the Seismic PRA.

5.2 Seismic PRA Plant Seismic Logic Model Technical Adequacy The WBN Seismic PRA seismic plant response methodology and analysis [12] were subjected to an independent peer review against the pertinent requirements in the PRA standard [4]. The seismic plant response methodology and analysis were peer reviewed relative to Capability Category II for the full set of supporting requirements in the Standard. After completion of the subsequent independent assessment, the full set of supporting requirements was met and the seismic plant response methodology and analysis were determined acceptable for use in the Seismic PRA.

The peer review assessment, and subsequent disposition of peer review findings through an independent assessment, is further described in Appendix A and references [6] and [20].

5.3 Seismic Risk Quantification In the Seismic PRA risk quantification the seismic hazard is integrated with the seismic response analysis model to calculate the frequencies of core damage and large early release of radioactivity to the environment. This section describes the Seismic PRA quantification methodology and important modeling assumptions.

5.3.1 Seismic PRA Quantification Methodology Once the WBN Seismic PRA single top logic was developed [12], the model can be quantified for core damage and large early release. The FRANX 4.2 software was used to perform this quantification. A number of ACCESS tables within FRANX are used to define the seismic hazard bins, assign seismic fragilities to basic events with the logic model, calculate fragilities associated with each of the seismic hazard bins, and assign HEPs by seismic bin for each HFE.

Note that the seismic HRA module with FRANX 4.2 was not used to determine the HEPs because that module is presently inconsistent with seismic HRA guidelines presented in the final EPRI report [28]. The module was developed based on an earlier draft of that report.

The following steps were used to perform the Seismic PRA model quantification for both CDF and LERF:

(1) Obtain conditional core damage probability (CCDP) or conditional large early release probability (CLERP) cutsets for each seismic bin using FRANX 4.2 and ACUBE with initial fragility and HEP values and generally assuming complete seismic correlation within fragility subgroups.

(2) Identify fragilities and HEPs to be refined (3) Refine fragility groups for complete seismic correlation modeling (4) Identify final set of fragilities to be inserted into the model (because of model size limitations and software constraints)

(5) Perform truncation sensitivity to determine final truncation level (6) Assemble bin cutsets into combined cutset files (one for CDF and one for LERF)

(7) Perform HFE dependency analysis (8) Finalize quantification of CDF and LERF (ACUBE analysis)

(9) Evaluate basic event importances (SYSIMP/ACUBE analysis supplemented by selected sensitivity analyses)

Specific issues related to quantification are discussed in the following sections addressing CDF and Level 2 results.

5.3.2 Seismic PRA Model and Quantification Assumptions Hazard analysis assumptions:

1. Refer to Section 3.2 for a discussion of assumptions and uncertainties associated with the hazard analysis.
2. Structures/fragilities analyses assumptions.
3. Most of the structure/fragilities analyses uses the CDFM method. The CDFM method predicts a slightly conservatively biased fragility.

Plant response modeling assumptions:

1. Structural failures of the RB, ACB, or DGB (combined with LOOP) are assumed to fail sufficient equipment within the structure to lead directly to core damage and large early release.
2. In addition to these large structure failures, seismic failures of the reactor vessel and its supports and structural failures of the pressurizer and steam generator supports are also considered to lead directly to core damage and large early release.
3. Finally, the combination of seismically-induced failure of the control room (ceiling collapse or cabinet failures) and failure of the operators to safely shut down the plant remotely is also assumed to lead directly to core damage and large early release. These are potentially conservative assumptions.

5.4 CDF Results 5.4.1 Overall CDF The seismic PRA performed for WBN shows that the point-estimate seismic CDF for Unit 1 is 2.6X10-6/rcy and is 2.6X10-6/rcy for Unit 2. A discussion of the mean CDF with uncertainty distribution reflecting the uncertainties in the hazard, fragilities, and model data is presented in Section 5.6. Important contributors are discussed in the following paragraphs.

5.4.2 CDF as a Function of Hazard Interval A summary of the CDF results for each seismic hazard interval is presented in Table 5.4-1 for Unit 1 CDF and Table 5.4-2 for Unit 2 CDF.

Individual seismic bin CCDPs range from 0.0 (at the 1E-10/rcy truncation level) to 9.1E-1 (which is the plant availability factor). For bins %G7 and %G8 (PGA range of 2.0 to > 3.0 g), the CCDPs are essentially the plant availability factor, which indicate that those levels of seismic events essentially lead directly to core damage. The sum of the seismic bin initiator frequencies is 6.7E 4/rcy, so the plant has an overall effective CCDP of 2.6E-6/6.7E-4 = 3.9E-3 for both units.

The fragility group SEIS_HRAINSTR is a combination of fragilities rather than a single fragility. See the SHR Notebook for details.

The EPRI SYSIMP software was used to calculate the importance measure of each fragility group, taking into account the combined FV importance across all of the seismic initiator bins.

For Unit 1, the most important fragility group in Table 5.4-3 is SEIS_LOOP, which represents seismically induced LOOP. The fragility for this event is Am = 0.3 g, which is very low compared with other events in the table. The use of this generic fragility for seismically induced LOOP is a standard industry practice for US plants. Refinement of this fragility is typically not attempted because both the switchyard and the grid outside the plant boundary would need to be considered.

The second most important fragility group is SEIS_IF, which is used to model seismic failure of piping in the RB and ACB. There are about 110 internal flood scenarios that use this fragility, so this FV importance is high because of both individual internal flood scenario impacts and the large number of scenarios. Note that these events are not initiating events but events that can occur within any of the SIET transfers to IEPRA ETs. Because the locations and configurations of the pipe breaks modeled differ, the scenarios within this group are not seismically correlated.

Page 49 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 The third most important fragility group is SEIS_3MWFLEXDG, which represents the FLEX 3 MW DG. If LOOP occurs and the emergency DG AC power fails, this DG can be used as an alternate source to power the shutdown boards.

The fourth most important fragility group is SEIS_SSBO which represents a secondary side break outside of containment.

The fifth most important fragility group is SEIS_3-3, which represents seismic failure of the battery chargers. These are important for keeping the DC batteries charged. Complete seismic correlation is assumed for these battery chargers. If all dc power is lost, then core damage will occur.

The sixth most important fragility group is SEIS_0-25, which represents contact chatter in the medium voltage circuit breakers feeding the stepdown transformers that feed the 480 V shutdown boards. Given failure of all four shutdown boards, all AC power is lost to safety-related equipment needed to safety shut down the plant.

SEIS_HRAINSTR is the seventh most important fragility group. This event models seismic failure of sufficient instrumentation such that operator actions may not be possible.

Although the FV values of the fragility groups are slightly different for Unit 2, the same fragility groups are dominant.

Another important fragility group is one that included the block walls in the Diesel Generator Building (FV= 0.069 for Unit 1 FV=0.054 for Unit 2) [12].

5.4.4 Significant Human Failure Events The most important HFEs with respect to FV are listed in Table 5.4-5 for Unit 1 and 5.4-6 for Unit 2. The importance of the HFEs includes all events associated with a given HFE, including recovery and combination events. For Unit 1 there are six HFEs with FV >0.005. Failure to start AFW and failure to start and align the FLEX DGs are the top operator actions. Actions to terminate Safety injection to avoid PORV water challenge are important for Unit 1 results as is failure to isolate the steam generators during a steamline break. The action to cross-tie the 5,000 GPM fire pump to the Essential Raw Cooling Water (ERCW) header is important because it is a backup supply of water to the ERCW header.

For Unit 2 there are three HFEs with FV > 0.005. However, none are dominant. The top HFE is HAOS3, modeling failure to start AFW. The other two HFEs model failure to start and align the FLEX DGs.

5.4.4.1 Summary of the Approach used to Evaluate Human Error Probabilities The approach used to evaluate human error probabilities is based on EPRI 10025294, A Preliminary Approach to Human Reliability Analysis for External Events with a Focus on Seismic

[30]. First the human failure events are identified. Then a screening analysis and, if required, a detailed analysis was performed to evaluate HEPs.

5.4.4.2 Screening Analysis for HEPs EPRI 10025294, A Preliminary Approach to Human Reliability Analysis for External Events with a Focus on Seismic [30], addresses the basis for developing increased HEPs due to seismic events. The choice of seismic acceleration levels for binning and applying performance shaping factors (PSFs) was evaluated using this basis.

Screening quantification uses the analysis previously performed and applies a multiplier to the internal events HEP. The screening process produced a set of HEPs for the initial Seismic PRA model quantification. Risk rankings based on the results of the initial quantification are used to identify risk significant HEPs, defined as having a Fussell-Vesely (FV) > 0.005 or a Risk Achievement Worth (RAW) > 2.

5.4.4.3 Detailed Analysis for HEPs Risk significant HFEs were analyzed with detailed HRA, in accordance with the guidance in EPRI 10025294 [30].

The EPRI approach for seismic HRA directs the detailed analysis of HFEs to be done in two parts: qualitative and quantitative analysis. In practice these are done in tandem for each HFE and the starting point for the WBN seismic HRA is the IEPRA HRA. Detailed analysis was performed for EPRI Bins 1 through 3. No detailed analysis was done for EPRI Bin 4, as all Page 51 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 HFEs are considered infeasible due to the damage state of this bin and the uncertainty of instrumentation availability.

5.4.4.4 Operator action credit for FLEX FLEX actions were not initially credited in the Seismic PRA, as this was typical of the industry at the time and the actions/procedures were under development. During the subsequent focused scope peer review and F&O closure process it was identified that the FLEX actions for aligning FLEX DGs were now being credited in Seismic PRAs in the industry, therefore these two actions were added to the WBN Seismic PRA model.

5.4.5 Cutset Review 5.4.5.1 Unit 1 CDF The top 20 CDF sequences for Unit 1 are presented in Table 5.4-7 and are discussed below.

Cutset 1 involves seismic bin %G6 (1.2 to 2.0 g) and SIET sequence 01. None of the SIET top events have occurred. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-008. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. Seismically induced LOOP has occurred (event 0LOOP-PC-S-C-U-G6). There has been a seismically induced failure of the 125 volt vital battery charger (SEIS_3-3-C-G6). The Reactor Protection System (RT) was successful. PORVs reclosed if they were needed to prevent over pressurization (PR). Reactor coolant pump seal LOCA did not occur (LEAK). However, the combination of loss of offsite power and failure of vital battery chargers results in loss of DC power after battery depletion (FL-BATDEP). This fails ERCW which in turn results in a loss of safety injection (SI). High-pressure injection using charging pumps is also failed due pump start failure as well as pump cooling failures as a result of the loss of the vital battery boards. Long-term cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater is also lost due to battery depletion after 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and loss of the vital battery charger. Feedwater is lost as a direct result of the seismic event.

Cutset 2 involves seismic bin %G7 (2 to 3 g) and SIET sequence 01. None of the SIET top events have occurred. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-008. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. Seismically induced LOOP has occurred (event 0LOOP-PC-S-C-U-G6). There has been a seismically induced failure of the 125 volt vital battery charger (SEIS_3-3-C-G6). The Reactor Protection System (RT) was successful. PORVs reclosed if they were needed to prevent over pressurization (PR). Reactor coolant pump seal LOCA did not occur (LEAK). However, the combination of loss of offsite power and failure of vital battery chargers results in loss of DC power after battery depletion (FL-BATDEP). This fails ERCW which in turn results in a loss of safety injection (SI). High-pressure injection using charging pumps is also failed due pump start failure as well as pump cooling failures as a result of the loss of the vital battery boards. Long-term cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater is also lost due to battery depletion after 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and loss of the vital battery charger. Feedwater is lost as a direct result of the seismic event.

Cutset 3 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences Page 52 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. The operators fail to align the 480V FLEX diesel generator. Breaker chatter fragility event SEIS_0 C-G7 causes loss of the 480 volt shutdown board. Both trains of SI fail due to cooling failures of the SI pumps.SI pump room cooling fails as a result of loss of the 480 volt shutdown board due to breaker chatter. Lube oil cooling to the pumps is lost because of CCS failure due to pump start failure as a result of loss of the 480 volt shutdown board. Long-term cooling fails because feedwater and aux. feedwater are both lost.

Feedwater is lost due to the seismic event. Restoration of feedwater is not successful because of flow path failures and failure of the standby motor-driven pump. Auxiliary feedwater is lost due to loss of flow to the steam generators. High-pressure injection with the charging pumps fails for a variety of reasons, among them loss of RWST supply due loss of suction because the required MOVs fail to open due to the loss of the 480 volt shutdown board.

Cutset 4 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW). Seismic induced failures of involving fragility group SEIS_20-1-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR

%G7: HX-CCS) affect the CCS heat exchangers and seismic failures involving breaker chatter fragility group SEIS_0-25-C-G7 affect the 480 volt shutdown boards. SI train B pump cooling is lost because the breaker chatter causes loss of the 480 volt shutdown board, which affects room cooling, and lube oil cooling for the pump is lost from loss of the Component Cooling System (CCS). A similar situation exists for SI train A where room cooling fails due to loss of the 480V shutdown board which affects the relevant CCS pumps ability to support room cooling.

Cutset 5 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater, seismically induced failures fail the 480 volt shutdown boards (SEIS_0-25-C-G7), and the 480 volt FLEX DGs (SEIS_480VFLEXDG-C-G7). Feedwater is lost due to the seismic event.

Restoration of feedwater is not successful because of flow path failures and failure of the standby motor-driven pump. SI train B pump cooling is lost because the breaker chatter causes loss of the 480 volt shutdown board due to breaker chatter, which affects room cooling, and lube oil cooling for the pump is also lost from loss of the Component Cooling System (CCS). SI pump A is lost for the same reasons. High-pressure injection with the charging pumps is lost because of flow path failures involving the loss of the 480 volt shutdown boards affected by relay chatter.

Cutset 6 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. It is similar to sequence 5 except instead of the 480 volt FLEX DGs failing the 480 volt FLEX DG bus (SEIS_FLEXBUS-C-G7) fails.

Cutset 7 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G06 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve Page 53 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater.

Cutset 8 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G06 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater.

Cutset 9 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation. The seismic event affects fragility group SEIS_2-1-C-G7 for the aux. battery and fragility group SEIS_3-3-C-G7 for the 125 volt vital battery charger.

This scenario involves successful AFW near term, failure of long-term heat removal (LTHR), and failure of high-pressure recirculation (HPR). The combination of loss of offsite power and failure of 125 volt vital battery chargers along with loss of the aux.

battery results in loss of DC power after 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> resulting from battery depletion (FL-BATDEP). This fails long term heat removal (LTHR) and high-pressure recirculation using charging pumps. This leads to core damage. Recovery using the 480 V FLEX DG is not possible because of the battery charger failures.

Cutset 10 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion. In this case the initiating event is a %G06 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater.

Cutset 11 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. It involves a breaker chatter fragility event SEIS_0-24-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Breaker Chatter LVS) along with an operator action of failure to align 225kVA 480V Diesel Generators. The breaker chatter fragility fails the 480 volt shutdown boards which affect SI pump start capability and pump room cooling. The operator action of failure to align the 480 volt FLEX diesels along with the loss of offsite power affects backup power. The loss of 480 volt shutdown boards affects high-pressure injection with the charging pumps by failure the chemical volume control system RWST valves. Feedwater is lost as a result of the seismic event and feedwater restoration fails because of flow path failures caused by loss of power.

Cutset 12 is a GTRAN-008 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. It involves a breaker chatter fragility event SEIS_0-25-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Breaker Chatter MVS). Although this sequence does not involve a loss of offsite power or battery depletion, fragility events SEIS_2-1-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: AUX Battery), SEIS_0-25-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Breaker Chatter MVS) and SRX7_HAESBODG1 (Operator failure to align 225kVA 480V Diesel Generators).

Cutset 13 is a GTRAN-003 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion. In this case the initiating event is a %G08 seismic event. GTRAN-003 Page 54 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation.

This scenario involves successful AFW near term, failure of long-term heat removal (LTHR), and failure of high-pressure recirculation (HPR). The combination of loss of offsite power and failure of battery chargers results in loss of DC power after 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> resulting from battery depletion (FL-BATDEP). This fails long term heat removal (LTHR) and high-pressure recirculation using charging pumps. This leads to core damage.

Recovery using the 480 V FLEX DG is not possible because of the battery charger failures.

Cutset 14 is a direct core damage event that occurs as a result of a %G07 seismic event. The earthquake causes control room abandonment and because of the magnitude of the earthquake efforts to shutdown remotely are not successful.

Cutset 15 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G08 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation. This sequence also involves loss of offsite power, battery depletion, fragility group SEIS_0-25-C-G8 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G8: Breaker Chatter MVS) and failure of an operator action to align 225kVA 480V diesel generators.

Long-term heat removal via AFW fails. Feedwater fails due to the initiating event.

Feedwater restoration fails because of flow path failures and failure of the motor-driven pump itself due to loss of power. High-pressure recirculation fails because high head recirculation fails. It fails because of no flow from either RHR train flow path. Train A fails because the breaker chatter failure causes 480 volt shutdown board failure which results in loss of RHR room cooling failures, and other failures as well which also affect the A RHR train. Train B of RHR fails also because of room cooling also ultimately due to breaker chatter effects on the 480 volt shutdown boards.

Cutset 16 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. This sequence involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Southern DG Block Walls) and an operator action involving failure to align the 6.9kV diesel generators. In this case the block wall failure has a 50% chance of impacting the board room exhaust fans which in turn impact the ability of each diesel generator to function. Along with loss of offsite power and the loss of the 6.9kV diesel generators, this fails power systems such that High-pressure Injection, Safety Injection and Long-term Cooling can no longer operate.

Cutset 17 is a GTRAN-008 sequence. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. In this case the initiating event is a

%G07 seismic event. This sequence involves loss of offsite power but the batteries are not depleted. This sequence involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Southern DG Block Walls) and an operator action involving failure to align the 6.9kV diesel generators, as well as a separate operator action for failure to locally operate the turbine-driven aux. feedwater pump valves to control flow during a station blackout.

Cutset 18 is a GTRAN-008 sequence. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. In this case the initiating event is a Page 55 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017

%G07 seismic event. This sequence involves loss of offsite power but the batteries are not depleted. This sequence involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Southern DG Block Walls) and an operator action involving failure to align the 6.9kV diesel generators. However is this case a different operator action (SRX7_HTPR1) leads to failure of the TDAFW pumps.

Cutset 19 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G08 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation.

Cutset 20 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. It involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 which affects the southern diesel generator block walls, and fragility group SEIS_3MWFLEXDG-C-G7 which affects the 3MW FLEX diesel generator functionality. The failure of the block walls affects long term cooling of the diesels by rendering the board room exhaust fans inoperable and unable to cool the diesel generator rooms. Normal and alternate power to the 6.9kV shutdown boards is lost due to seismically induced loss of offsite power.

The loss of the 3MW FLEX diesels means that the remaining backup power to the 6.9kV shutdown boards is lost.

Fifteen of the top 20 Unit 1 CDF cutsets include the flag event FL-BATDEP, which is used in cases where LOOP has occurred and either the emergency DGs fail (resulting in an unrecoverable loss of safety-related AC power) or electrical BUSES/panels supplying that power to necessary loads fail. However, the AFW TDP starts and continues to run until its DC power supply fails due to battery depletion. The assumption is that battery depletion occurs 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> after the loss of AC power. (This assumption is used in the IEPRA model for accident modeling and radionuclide release modeling.) The accident scenario then leads to core damage after the loss of DC power. The IEPRA model includes recovery actions involving the permanently installed FLEX DGs. The 480 V FLEX DG is located on the roof of the ACB. It is designed mainly to provide AC power to the battery chargers if emergency AC power fails. The 3 MW FLEX DG in the FLEX structure can provide power to pumps and other equipment. Both of these DGs are modeled in the Seismic PRA, including fragilities for the DGs, fuel tanks, and BUSES and operator actions to start and align the DGs. Inspection of the top 20 cutsets indicates that these recovery actions have been included where applicable. However, given the strong seismic events involved (%G6 through %G8), not much credit could be allowed.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 5.4.5.2 Unit 2 CDF The top 20 Unit CDF cutsets are presented in Table 5.4-8 and are discussed below.

Cutset 1 involves seismic bin %G6 (1.2 to 2.0 g) and SIET sequence 01. None of the SIET top events have occurred. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-013. Seismically induced LOOP has occurred (event 0LOOP-PC-S-C-U-G6).

The Reactor Protection System (RT) was successful. PORVs reclosed if they were needed to prevent over pressurization (PR). Reactor coolant pump seal LOCA did not occur (LEAK). However, the combination of loss of offsite power and failure of battery chargers results in loss of DC power after battery depletion (FL-BATDEP). This fails AFW, high-pressure injection using charging pumps, and high-pressure recirculation using SI pumps. This leads to core damage. Recovery using the 480 V FLEX diesel generator (DG, permanently mounted on the roof of the ACB) is not possible because that DG is aligned to the battery chargers, which have failed seismically.

Cutset 2 involves seismic bin %G7 (2.0 to 3.0 g). The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. This scenario involves successful AFW near term, failure of long-term heat removal (LTHR), and failure of high-pressure recirculation (HPR). The combination of loss of offsite power and failure of battery chargers results in loss of DC power after 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> resulting from battery depletion (FL-BATDEP). This fails long term heat removal (LTHR) and high-pressure recirculation using charging pumps.

This leads to core damage. Recovery using the 480 V FLEX DG is not possible because of the battery charger failures.

Cutset 3 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. Operator action to start and connect the 480 V FLEX DG to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

Cutset 4 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR.

Cutset 5 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR, but with CCS failure resulting in HPR failure.

Cutset 6 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. The 480 V FLEX DG fails seismically and thus fails to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

Cutset 7 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. The 480 V FLEX DG bus fails seismically and thus fails to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 Cutset 8 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. Operator action to start and connect the 480 V FLEX DG to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails due to a seismic failure of the required instrumentation, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

Cutset 9 involves seismic bin %G6 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. The 480 V FLEX DG fails seismically and thus fails to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

Cutset 10 involves seismic bin %G6 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. The 480 V FLEX DG bus fails seismically and thus fails to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

Cutset 11 involves seismic bin %G7 (2.0 to 3.0 g). The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. This scenario involves successful AFW near term, failure of long-term heat removal (LTHR), and failure of high-pressure recirculation (HPR). The combination of immediate battery and charger seismic failures results in an immediate loss of control power. This fails long term heat removal (LTHR) and high-pressure recirculation using charging pumps. This leads to core damage. Recovery using the 480 V FLEX DG is not possible because of the battery charger failures.

Cutset 12 involves seismic bin %G6, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR, but with CCS failure resulting in HPR failure.

Cutset 13 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with low voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. Operator action to start and connect the 480 V FLEX DG to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

Cutset 14 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The low voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR.

Cutset 15 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The medium voltage circuit breaker chatter combined with LOOP fails AC power. That fails HPR. In addition, seismic failure of the batteries combined with failure to start and align the 480 V FLEX DG fails DC power and LTHR.

Cutset 16 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power. The batteries seismically which fails control power for HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 Cutset 17 involves %G6 (> 3 g), SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. This scenario involves failures of LTHR and HPR. Total loss of DC power after battery depletion fails both systems.

Cutset 18 involves %G7 and SIET sequence 10 (direct core damage). There is no transfer to an IEPRA ET. Seismic failure of selected main control room (MCR) panels causes operators to abandon the MCR and attempt to safety shut down the plant remotely. However, this action is assumed to fail given %G7. Core damage occurs.

Cutset 18 involves seismic bin %G8 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. Operator action to start and connect the 480 V FLEX DG to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage.

Cutset 20 involves seismic bin %G8, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR.

Sixteen of the top 20 Unit 2 CDF cutsets include the flag event FL-BATDEP, which is used in cases where LOOP has occurred and either the emergency DGs fail (resulting in an unrecoverable loss of safety-related AC power) or electrical BUSES/panels supplying that power to necessary loads fail. However, the AFW TDP starts and continues to run until its DC power supply fails due to battery depletion. The assumption is that battery depletion occurs 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> after the loss of AC power. (This assumption is used in the IEPRA model for accident modeling and radionuclide release modeling.) The accident scenario then leads to core damage after the loss of DC power. The IEPRA model includes recovery actions involving the permanently installed FLEX DGs. The 480 V FLEX DG is located on the roof of the ACB. It is designed mainly to provide AC power to the battery chargers if emergency AC power fails. The 3 MW FLEX DG in the FLEX structure can provide power to pumps and other equipment. Both of these are modeled in the Seismic PRA, including fragilities for the DGs, fuel tanks, and BUSES and operator actions to start and align the DGs. Inspection of the top 20 cutsets indicates that these recovery actions have been included where applicable. However, given the strong seismic events involved (%G6 through %G8), not much credit could be allowed.

U2_GTRAN-003_TAG U2_GTRAN-003 Sequence tag 5.5 LERF Results 5.5.1 Overall LERF The seismic PRA performed for WBN shows that the point-estimate mean seismic LERF is 1.7X10-6/rcy. [12]. A discussion of the mean LERF with uncertainty distribution reflecting the uncertainties in the hazard, fragilities, and model data is presented in Section 5.6. Important contributors are discussed in the following paragraphs.

5.5.2 LERF as a Function of Hazard Interval A breakdown of LERF as a function of hazard interval is presented in Table 5.5-1 for Unit 1 and 5.5-2 for Unit 2. Seismic bins %G6 through %G8 (1.2 to > 3.0 g) contribute the most to LERF, accounting for 97.3%. Bin %G5 contributes 2.6%. Bins %G1 through %G4 contribute 0.1% to LERF.

Individual seismic bin CLERPs range from 0.0 (at the 1E-10/rcy truncation level) to 9.1E-1 (which is the plant availability factor). For bins %G7 and %G8 (PGA range of 2.0 to > 3.0 g), the CLERPs are essentially the plant availability factor, which indicate that those levels of seismic events essentially lead directly to large early release. The sum of the seismic bin initiator frequencies is 6.74E 4/rcy, so the plant has an overall effective CLERP of 1.7E-6/6.7E-4 =

0.0026 with respect to the seismic initiating events. In addition, given core damage, the fraction of those events that result in LERF is 1.7E-6/2.6E-6 = 0.66.

The importance of the HFEs includes all events associated with a given HFE, including recovery and combination events. The most important HFE, HACI1, represents the operator action to back up containment isolation given a station blackout. Failure of this event results in a release path outside containment. Other HFEs in Table 5.5-7 and 5.5-8 involve starting and aligning the FLEX DGs, failure to start AFW, and failure to shutdown remotely given a MCR evacuation.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 5.5.6 Cutset Review 5.5.6.1 Unit 1 LERF The top 20 cutsets for Unit 1 are presented in Table 5.5-9 and are discussed below.

Cutset 1 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. The operators fail to align the 480V FLEX diesel generator. Breaker chatter fragility event SEIS_0 C-G7 causes loss of the 480 volt shutdown board. Both trains of SI fail due to cooling failures of the SI pumps.SI pump room cooling fails as a result of loss of the 480 volt shutdown board due to breaker chatter. Lube oil cooling to the pumps is lost because of CCS failure due to pump start failure as a result of loss of the 480 volt shutdown board. Long-term cooling fails because feedwater and aux. feedwater are both lost.

Feedwater is lost due to the seismic event. Restoration of feedwater is not successful because of flow path failures and failure of the standby motor-driven pump. Aux.

feedwater is lost due to loss of flow to the steam generators. High-pressure injection with the charging pumps fails for a variety of reasons, among them loss of RWST supply due loss of suction because the required MOVs fail to open due to the loss of the 480 volt shutdown board. Loss of containment isolation leads LERF.

Cutset 2 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation. It involves an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power.

Cutset 3 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater, seismically induced failures fail the 480 volt shutdown boards (SEIS_0-25-C-G7), and the 480 volt FLEX DGs (SEIS_480VFLEXDG-C-G7). Feedwater is lost due to the seismic event.

Restoration of feedwater is not successful because of flow path failures and failure of the standby motor-driven pump. SI train B pump cooling is lost because the breaker chatter causes loss of the 480 volt shutdown board due to breaker chatter, which affects room cooling, and lube oil cooling for the pump is also lost from loss of the Component Cooling System (CCS). SI pump A is lost for the same reasons. High-pressure injection with the charging pumps is lost because of flow path failures involving the loss of the 480 volt shutdown boards affected by relay chatter. A loss of containment isolation is caused by an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power.

Cutset 4 is a GTRAN-008 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. A loss of containment isolation is caused by an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power.

Cutset 5 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation. This sequence also involves loss of offsite power, battery Page 76 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 depletion, fragility group SEIS_0-25-C-G8 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G8: Breaker Chatter MVS) and failure of an operator action to align 225kVA 480V diesel generators.

Long-term heat removal via AFW fails. Feedwater fails due to the initiating event.

Feedwater restoration fails because of flow path failures and failure of the motor-driven pump itself due to loss of power. High-pressure recirculation fails because high head recirculation fails. It fails because of no flow from either Residual Heat Removal (RHR) train flow path. Train A fails because the breaker chatter failure causes 480 volt shutdown board failure which results in loss of RHR room cooling failures, and other failures as well which also affect the A RHR train. Train B of RHR fails also because of room cooling also ultimately due to breaker chatter effects on the 480 volt shutdown boards. Seismically induced instrument failure causes a failure to isolate the containment due to the fact that the operator lacks the necessary cues to perform the operation, leading to an ILERF.

Cutset 6 is a GTRAN-003 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion.

In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW). Seismic induced failures of involving fragility group SEIS_20-1-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR

%G7: HX-CCS) affect the CCS heat exchangers and seismic failures involving breaker chatter fragility group SEIS_0-25-C-G7 affect the 480 volt shutdown boards. SI train B pump cooling is lost because the breaker chatter causes loss of the 480 volt shutdown board, which affects room cooling, and lube oil cooling for the pump is lost from loss of the Component Cooling System (CCS). A similar situation exists for SI train A where room cooling fails due to loss of the 480V shutdown board which affects the relevant CCS pumps ability to support room cooling. Long-term cooling via AFW and feedwater is failed. Seismically induced instrument failure causes a failure to isolate the containment due to the fact that the operator lacks the necessary cues to perform the operation, leading to an ILERF.

Although this sequence does not involve a loss of offsite power or battery depletion, fragility events SEIS_2-1-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: AUX Battery), SEIS_0-25-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Breaker Chatter MVS) and SRX7_HAESBODG1 (Operator failure to align 225kVA 480V Diesel Generators). It also includes a failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power.

Cutset 11 is a direct core damage event caused loss of a main control room panel and failure to shutdown remotely. All direct core damage events are assumed to lead to LERF.

Cutset 12 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G08 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation. This sequence also involves loss of offsite power, battery depletion, fragility group SEIS_0-25-C-G8 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G8: Breaker Chatter MVS) and failure of an operator action to align 225kVA 480V diesel generators.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 involving failure to align the 6.9kV diesel generators. In this case the block wall failure has a 50% chance of impacting the board room exhaust fans which in turn impact the ability of each diesel generator to function. Along with loss of offsite power and the loss of the 6.9kV diesel generators, this fails power systems such that High-pressure Injection, Safety Injection and Long-term Cooling can no longer operate. A loss of containment isolation is caused by an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power.

Cutset 14 is a GTRAN-008 sequence. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. In this case the initiating event is a

%G07 seismic event. This sequence involves loss of offsite power but the batteries are not depleted. This sequence involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Southern DG Block Walls) and an operator action involving failure to align the 6.9kV diesel generators, as well as a separate operator action for failure to locally operate the turbine-driven aux. feedwater pump valves to control flow during a station blackout. A loss of containment isolation is caused by an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power.

Cutset 15 is a GTRAN-008 sequence. GTRAN-008 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. In this case the initiating event is a

%G07 seismic event. This sequence involves loss of offsite power but the batteries are not depleted. This sequence involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Southern DG Block Walls) and an operator action involving failure to align the 6.9kV diesel generators. However is this case a different operator action (SRX7_HTPR1) leads to failure of the TDAFW pumps.

Cutset 16 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G08 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-pressure recirculation. This sequence also involves loss of offsite power, battery depletion, fragility group SEIS_0-25-C-G8 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G8: Breaker Chatter MVS) and failure of an operator action to align 225kVA 480V diesel generators.

A loss of containment isolation is caused by an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power.

Cutset 18 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. In this case the initiating event is a %G08 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve a loss of long-term cooling and a loss of high-Page 79 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 pressure recirculation. Seismically induced instrument failure causes a failure to isolate the containment due to the fact that the operator lacks the necessary cues to perform the operation.

Cutset 19 is a GTRAN-003 sequence involving loss of offsite power and battery depletion. In this case the initiating event is a %G07 seismic event. GTRAN-003 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. It involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 which affects the southern diesel generator block walls, and fragility group SEIS_3MWFLEXDG-C-G7 which affects the 3MW FLEX diesel generator functionality. The failure of the block walls affects long term cooling of the diesels by rendering the board room exhaust fans inoperable and unable to cool the diesel generator rooms. Normal and alternate power to the 6.9kV shutdown boards is lost due to seismically induced loss of offsite power.

The loss of the 3MW FLEX diesels means that the remaining backup power to the 6.9kV shutdown boards is lost. It involves a loss of containment isolation caused by an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power, leading to an ILERF.

Cutset 20 is a GTRAN-003 sequence. GTRAN-003 sequences involve loss of Safety Injection into the cold leg, loss of High-pressure Injection with the charging pumps and loss of Long-term Cooling via Auxiliary Feedwater. In this case the initiating event is a

%G07 seismic event. This sequence involves loss of offsite power but the batteries are not depleted. This sequence involves fragility group SEIS_DGBWSOUTH-C-G7 (SEISMIC FRAGILITY FOR %G7: Southern DG Block Walls) and an operator action involving failure to align the 6.9kV diesel generators, as well as a separate operator action for failure to locally operate the turbine-driven aux. feedwater pump valves to control flow during a station blackout. It involves a loss of containment isolation caused by an operator action of failure to isolate containment on loss of all AC power, leading to an ILERF.

Fifteen of the top 20 Unit 1 LERF cutsets include the flag event FL-BATDEP, which is used in cases where LOOP has occurred and either the emergency DGs fail (resulting in an unrecoverable loss of safety-related AC power) or electrical BUSES/panels supplying that power to necessary loads fail. However, the AFW TDP starts and continues to run until its DC power supply fails due to battery depletion. The assumption is that battery depletion occurs at 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> after the loss of AC power. (This assumption is used in the IEPRA model for accident modeling and radionuclide release modeling.) The accident scenario then leads to core damage after the loss of DC power. Recovery actions modeled in the Seismic PRA include crediting the use of the two permanently installed FLEX DGs to restore power. Review of the top 20 LERF cutsets indicates these recovery actions are included where applicable. However, for the strong seismic events in these top 20 cutsets, little or no credit for recovery is taken. For the lower seismic bins these recovery actions have more impact on the results.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 5.5.6.2 Unit 2 LERF The top 20 cutsets for Unit 2 are presented in Table 5.5-10 and are discussed below.

Cutset 1 involves seismic bin %G7 (2.0 to 3.0 g). The path through the SIET is SEIS-01, which is the GTRAN path. The IEPRA ET sequence is GTRAN-003, which involves failures of LTHR and HPR. This scenario is core damage cutset 3 with containment isolation failure. LOOP occurs, circuit breaker chatter fails AC power to the 480 V shutdown boards, and LTHR (AFW) occurs after the batteries deplete. The chatter also fails HPR. Recovery of AC power to the battery chargers using the 480 V FLEX DG fails.

This leads to core damage. Given loss of all power, containment isolation requires operator action. However, given %G7 there is no credit for operator action. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 2 involves %G7, SEIS_U2-01-SEQ, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003.

Containment isolation also fails leading to a large early release. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 3 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR, but with CCS failure resulting in HPR failure. Containment isolation also fails. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 4 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. The 480 V FLEX DG fails seismically and thus fails to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 5 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. The 480 V FLEX DG bus fails seismically and thus fails to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 6 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. Operator action to start and connect the 480 V FLEX DG to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails due to a seismic failure of the required instrumentation, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 7 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with low voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. Operator action to start and connect the 480 V FLEX DG to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 Cutset 8 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The low voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 9 involves seismic bin %G7 (2.0 to 3.0 g). The path through the SIET is SEIS-01, which is the GTRAN path. The IEPRA ET sequence is GTRAN-003, which involves failures of LTHR and HPR. This scenario is Unit 2CDF cutset 3 with containment isolation failure. LOOP occurs, circuit breaker chatter fails AC power to the 480 V shutdown boards, and LTHR (AFW) occurs due to the seismic failure of the batteries.

The chatter also fails HPR. Recovery of AC power to the battery chargers using the 480 V FLEX DG fails. This leads to core damage. Given loss of all power, containment isolation requires operator action. However, given %G7 there is no credit for operator action. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 10 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power. The batteries seismically which fails control power for HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 11 comes from the SIET direct damage scenario (SEIS_U2-10-SEQ) and involves sufficient panel failures in the main control room to require evacuation and remote shutdown. However, no credit for operator action is allowed for %G7. So core damage occurs. This event is assumed to lead to early containment failure and a large early release.

Cutset 12 involves seismic bin %G8. The path through the SIET is SEIS-01, which is the GTRAN path. The IEPRA ET sequence is GTRAN-003, which involves failures of LTHR and HPR. This scenario is core damage cutset 3 with containment isolation failure. LOOP occurs, circuit breaker chatter fails AC power to the 480 V shutdown boards, and LTHR (AFW) occurs after the batteries deplete. The chatter also fails HPR.

Recovery of AC power to the battery chargers using the 480 V FLEX DG fails. This leads to core damage. Given loss of all power, containment isolation requires operator action.

However, given %G7 there is no credit for operator action. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 13 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 14 involves %G7, SEIS_U2-01-SEQ, and GTRAN-003. DG block walls collapse and fall onto the cooling fans for the DGs. With LOOP, this results in loss of all AC power. Operators fail to start and align both FLEX DGs to restore power. This results in core damage. With the loss of power, backup containment isolation fails. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 15 involves %G7, SEIS_U2-01-SEQ, and GTRAN-003. DG block walls collapse and fall onto the cooling fans for the DGs. With LOOP, this results in loss of all AC power. Operators fail to operate AFW locally. This results in core damage. With the loss Page 88 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 of power, backup containment isolation fails. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 16 involves %G7, SEIS_U2-01-SEQ, and GTRAN-003. DG block walls collapse and fall onto the cooling fans for the DGs. With LOOP, this results in loss of all AC power. Operators fail to operate AFW from the control room. This results in core damage. With the loss of power, backup containment isolation fails. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 17 involves seismic bin %G7 and SIET sequence 01. The accident scenario follows the IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. LOOP combined with medium voltage circuit breaker contact chatter fails all AC power. That fails HPR. Operator action to start and connect the 480 V FLEX DG to provide AC power to the battery chargers fails due to a seismic failure of the required instrumentation, so DC power is lost at 8 h, failing LTHR. This leads to core damage and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 18 involves seismic bin %G7, SIET sequence 01, and IEPRA ET sequence GTRAN-003. The circuit breaker contact chatter fails emergency AC power, which fails HPR. The operator action failure results in failure of LTHR, but with CCS failure resulting in HPR failure and containment isolation failure. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 19 involves %G7, SEIS_U2-01-SEQ, and GTRAN-003. DG block walls collapse and fall onto the cooling fans for the DGs. With LOOP, this results in loss of all AC power. The 3 MW FLEX DG fails seismically, so AC power cannot be restored. Loss of power results in the batteries being depleted. This results in core damage. With the loss of power, backup containment isolation fails. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Cutset 20 involves %G7, SEIS_U2-01-SEQ, and GTRAN-003. DG block walls collapse and fall onto the cooling fans for the DGs. With LOOP, this results in loss of all AC power. The 3 MW FLEX DG fails seismically, so AC power cannot be restored. The operators fail to locally control the TD AFW LCVs. This results in core damage. With the loss of power, backup containment isolation fails. This scenario is an isolation failure large early release (U2_L2FILERF001).

Fourteen of the top 20 Unit 2 LERF cutsets include the flag event FL-BATDEP, which is used in cases where LOOP has occurred and either the emergency DGs fail (resulting in an unrecoverable loss of safety-related AC power) or electrical BUSES/panels supplying that power to necessary loads fail. However, the AFW TDP starts and continues to run until its DC power supply fails due to battery depletion. The assumption is that battery depletion occurs at 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> after the loss of AC power. (This assumption is used in the IEPRA model for accident modeling and radionuclide release modeling.) The accident scenario then leads to core damage after the loss of DC power. Recovery actions modeled in the Seismic PRA include crediting the use of the two permanently installed FLEX DGs to restore power. Review of the top 20 LERF cutsets indicates these recovery actions are included where applicable. However, for the strong seismic events in these top 20 cutsets, little or no credit for recovery is taken. For the lower seismic bins these recovery actions have more impact on the results.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 5.6 Seismic PRA Quantification Uncertainty Analysis 5.6.1 CDF Uncertainty Analysis The Unit 1 CDF uncertainty analysis results are summarized in Table 5.6-1 and presented in Figure 5.6-1. The Unit 2 CDF uncertainty analysis results are summarized in Table 5.6-2 and presented in Figure 5.6-2. The uncertainty analysis was performed with UNCERT 4.0, using Monte Carlo sampling with 20,000 samples and ACUBE processing of 5,000 cutsets. The upper error factor (EF, 95th/50th) is 6.1, and the lower EF (50th/5th) is 6.2. These EFs are larger than typical results for IEPRA CDFs (around 3.0 or lower), which is anticipated given the uncertainty in the seismic hazard curve. However, the uncertainties in the CCDP cutset basic events for the higher seismic bins are effectively reduced by the large number of high CCDP cutsets, when combined approach the plant availability factor of 0.914.

The UNCERT analysis included distributions for seismic bin frequencies, fragility estimates, seismic HEPs, and IEPRA basic events. Sampling of the individual seismic bin frequencies was performed using the correlated approach described in the FRANX manual. Seismic failure probability distributions are determined automatically by FRANX given the fragility parameter estimates (Am, R, and U).

Distributions for IEPRA basic events were left unchanged from the IEPRA model. However, the IEPRA model did not include distributions for MGL CCF parameters and some Level 2 phenomenological events. Those events were assigned distributions as described in Table 13-13 of the seismic quantification notebook [12].

The Unit 2 LERF uncertainty analysis results are summarized in Table 5.6-4 and presented in Figure 5.6-4. The uncertainty analysis was performed with UNCERT 4.0, using Monte Carlo sampling with 10,000 samples. The upper error factor (EF, 95th/50th) is 6.6, and the lower EF (50th/5th) is 6.6. These EFs are larger than typical results for IEPRA LERFs (around 3.0 or lower), which is anticipated given the uncertainty in the seismic hazard curve.

However, the uncertainties in the CLERP cutset basic events for the higher seismic bins are effectively reduced by the large number of high CLERP cutsets, which when combined approach the plant availability factor of 0.914.

For both WBN units, the important model uncertainties are addresses through the sensitivity studies described in Section 5.7 to determine the potential impact on CDF or LERF.

5.6.4 CDF Truncation Study A truncation study was performed on the Unit 2 Seismic PRA model to ensure that sufficient cutsets were generated to result in an accurate estimate for CDF. The truncation study is more complex than typically performed for the IEPRA CDF because of several reasons:

1. Quantification of the Seismic PRA CDF is performed separately by seismic bin and the results are then combined to obtain a total CDF estimate
2. ACUBE post processing of bin cutsets is performed to obtain more accurate cutset summation estimates, and the number of cutsets that can be processed by ACUBE is limited
3. The number of fragility events included in the model may be limited by software and hardware constraints.

Therefore, the truncation study is multi-dimensional. Results of the truncation study addressing items 1 and 2 above are summarized in Table 5.6-5. The truncation study was performed by using ACUBE processing of 2000 cutsets for each seismic bin. The CDF results were generated using truncation limits of 1E-7 through 1E-10 (by decades). The CDF truncation limits for each seismic bin were determined by one of the following: (1) the CCDP reached the 0.914 upper limit or (2) the change in total CDF was < 5%. At a truncation level of 1.0E-10/rcy (1.0E-8/rcy for seismic bin %G7 and 1.0E-7/rcy for %G8), the change in CDF is 1.3%. Because the Unit 1 Page 101 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 and Unit 2 models are so similar and produce similar results, a truncation study was not performed for Unit 1 CDF.

5.6.5 LERF Truncation Study A truncation study was performed to ensure that sufficient cutsets were generated to result in an accurate estimate for LERF. The truncation study is more complex than typically performed for the IEPRA LERF because of several reasons:

1. Quantification of the Seismic PRA LERF is performed separately by seismic bin and the results are then combined to obtain a total LERF estimate
2. ACUBE post processing of bin cutsets is performed to obtain more accurate cutset summation estimates, and the number of cutsets that can be processed by ACUBE is limited
3. The number of fragility events included in the model is limited by software and hardware constraints.

Therefore, the truncation study is multi-dimensional. Results of the truncation study addressing items 1 and 2 above are summarized in Table 5.6-6. The truncation study was performed by using ACUBE processing of 2000 cutsets for each seismic bin. The LERF results were generated using truncation limits of 1E-7 through 1E-10 (by decades). The LERF truncation limits for each seismic bin were determined by one of the following: (1) the CLERP reached the 0.914 upper limit or (2) the change in total LERF was < 5%. At a truncation level of 1.0E-10/rcy (1.0E-8/rcy for seismic bin %G7 and 1.0E-7/rcy for %G8), the change in LERF is 3.1%.

5.7 Seismic PRA Quantification Sensitivity Analysis Quantitative sensitivity analyses were performed using the Seismic PRA CDF and LERF models. Those analyses and their results are summarized in 5.7-1. The sensitivity case results are discussed below.

Cases 1 and 2 Typical IEPRA sensitivity analyses involve increasing the HEPs to their 95th percentile values and decreasing them to their 5th percentile values. Sensitivity cases 1 and 2 cover those two cases. Increasing the HEPs to their 95th percentile values increased CDF by 1.5% and LERF by 2.8%. Decreasing the HEPs to their 5th percentile values decreased CDF by 0.7% and LERF by 0.6%.

Cases 3 and 4 Typical IEPRA sensitivity analyses involve increasing the CCFs to their 95th percentile values and decreasing them to their 5th percentile values. For the Seismic PRA, similar types of sensitivity cases involve the seismic correlation. The base Seismic PRA results involve complete seismic correlation within fragility groups (case 3). If all seismically correlated groups are set to uncorrelated (case 4), then CDF increases 7.3% and LERF increases 17.8%. Often CDF and LERF are reduced with this type of sensitivity analysis. However, the WBN Seismic Page 103 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 PRA model has sufficient single failure events leading directly to CDF and LERF such that correlating those groups results in increases rather than decreases.

Case 5 Seismic events have the potential to impact evacuation routes and timings assumed in the IEPRA LERF model. The WBN Seismic PRA base model for LERF follows the EPRI 3002000709 guidelines [10] for treating seismic impacts on evacuation modeling. This approach uses the IEPRA modeling for seismic events up to 0.5 g. Above 0.5 g, large releases occurring up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> are included in LERF. Large releases occurring after 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> are not included in LERF. If the IEPRA LERF model is used for all seismic events (no seismic impacts on evacuation routes and timings), then LERF is reduced 4.1%.

Case 6 Seismic events also have the potential to require longer than 24-hour mission times in order for a safe, stable shutdown state to be achieved. The base Seismic PRA uses the 24-hour mission time assumption in order to maintain consistency with the IEPRA model. A 72-hour mission was modeled by changing the 24-hour mission for fail to run events to 72 h. In addition, HVAC was modeled for ERCW because cooling is needed after 37 h. (No other HVAC systems needed to be added.) These modifications resulted in a CDF increase of 0.8% and LERF increase of 2.8%.

Case 7 The WBN Seismic PRA base case does not take credit for non-safety-related equipment, except for allowing offsite power to safety-related equipment up to the seismic level where seismically induced LOOP occurs. Sensitivity case 7 investigates how CDF and LERF might change if credit were to be allowed for non-safety-related equipment. In this analysis, all non-safety-related equipment was assumed to not be impacted by the seismic event. This sensitivity analysis indicates essentially no change to CDF or LERF (case 7). This is most likely driven by the seismically induced LOOP (Am = 0.3 g, HCLPF = 0.09 g) that results in loss of power to such equipment.

Case 8 The main steamline break events in the WBN Seismic PRA (SSBI-1 through 4 and SSBO-1 through 4) in the SIET transfer to the IEPRA ETs for SSBI and SSBO. However, if more than one line ruptures, then there are no MAAP analyses to indicate whether such events can be mitigated without core damage occurring. Given seismic correlation of these lines, if one line ruptures seismically, then most likely more than one line will rupture. In that case, the SSBI and SSBO events should go directly to core damage and LERF. A sensitivity case was performed that assumes these events go directly to core damage and LERF. The results indicated essentially little impact on CDF (1.5% reduction) or LERF (0.7% reduction), which indicates that the transfers of the SSBI and SSBO events to their IEPRA ETs result in essentially no mitigative credit given seismic events that can rupture these lines.

Case 9 Another sensitivity case examined the potential reduction in CDF and LERF if the RWST fragility were refined further is presented in sensitivity case 9. The fragility analysis was examined for conservatisms and it was determined that improvements would most likely require a 3-D finite element analysis. Assuming the RWST would not fail seismically reduced the CDF by 0.7% and LERF by 0.5%.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 Case 10 A sensitivity case was performed that addresses not modeling a very small LOCA occurring for non-LOCA scenarios. A bounding calculation was performed by assigning a very small LOCA (with its fragility of Am = 3.65 g) to accident sequences not leading to core damage or large early release. These were then assumed to lead directly to core damage and large early release. The bounding results were an increase in CDF of < 0.5% and an increase in LERF of < 1.0%. So not modeling a very small LOCA in the non-LOCA scenarios has a minimal impact on CDF and LERF.

Case 11 A final sensitivity case addresses potential impacts of using the fragility cutoff of Am > 3.5 g (except for SIET logic events) when quantifying the Seismic PRA model. The impacts were a 0.8% increase in CDF and 1.1% increase in LERF.

8. Seismic MSLBs go directly to core damage -1.5% -0.7%
9. Improving the seismic fragility of the RWST -0.7% -0.5%
10. Upper bound impact of not modeling a very small LOCA for Note 2 Note 2 non-LOCA scenarios
11. Impact of using fragility cutoff of Am > 3.5 g (except for SIET 0.8% 1.1%

logic events) in quantification Note 1: For some sensitivity analyses, the resultant change in CDF and/or LERF was slightly negative (when it should have been positive) because of issues such as truncation, not rerunning the HFE dependency, or simplistic modeling of the sensitivity case. In those cases, the entry "~0.0%" was used.

That entry was also used when the resultant change was essentially zero and such issues were not encountered.

Note 2: This sensitivity is a bounding calculation in which all accident sequences not leading to core damage or large early release were assigned a very small LOCA (with its associated fragility, Am = 3.65 g) and then assumed to lead directly to core damage and large early release.

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 5.8 Seismic PRA Logic Model and Quantification Technical Adequacy The WBN Seismic PRA risk quantification and results interpretation methodology [12] were subjected to an independent peer review against the pertinent requirements in the PRA Standard [4]. The risk quantification and results interpretation methodology were peer reviewed relative to Capability Category II for the full set of supporting requirements in the Standard.

After completion of the subsequent independent assessment, the full set of supporting requirements was met and the seismic hazard analysis was determined to be acceptable for use in the Seismic PRA.

The peer review assessment, and subsequent disposition of peer review findings through an independent assessment, is further described in Appendix A, and references [6] and [20].

6.0 Conclusions A seismic PRA has been performed for WBN in accordance with the guidance in the SPID [2].

The WBN Seismic PRA shows that the seismic CDF for Unit 1 is 2.6 X10-6/rcy and the seismic LERF is 1.7 X10-6/rcy. The WBN Seismic PRA shows that the seismic CDF for Unit 2 is 2.6 X10-6/rcy and the seismic LERF is 1.7 X10-6/rcy.

The Seismic PRA as described in this submittal reflects the as-built/as-operated Seismic PRA freeze date of January 2014. Appendix A includes as assessment of plant changes not included in the model and how the changes impact the model results.

No seismic hazard vulnerabilities were identified, and no plant actions have been taken or are planned given the insights from this study.

A.2 PEER REVIEW OF WBN SEISMIC PRA The WBN PRA was subjected to an independent peer review against the pertinent requirements in Part 5 of the ASME/ANS PRA Standard [4]. The peer review assessment [6] and subsequent disposition of peer review findings, are summarized in this appendix. The scope of the review encompassed the set of technical elements and supporting requirements (SR) for the SHA (Seismic Hazard Element), SFR (Seismic Fragility Element), and SPR (Seismic PRA Modeling Element). The peer review, therefore, addressed the set of SRs identified in Tables 6-4 through 6-6 of the SPID [2].

The information presented here establishes that the Seismic PRA has been peer reviewed by a team with adequate credentials to perform the assessment, establishes that the peer review process followed meets the intent of the peer review characteristics and attributes in Table 16 of RG1.200 R2 [11] and the requirements in Section 1-6 of the ASME/ANS PRA Standard [4], and presents the significant results of the peer review.

The WBN Seismic PRA peer review was conducted during the week of March 14, 2016 at the TVA offices in Chattanooga, TN. As part of the peer review, a walk-down of portions of WBN Units 1 & 2 was performed on March 14, 2016 by several members of the peer review team who have the appropriate Seismic Qualification Utility Group training.

A.2.1 Summary of the WBN Seismic PRA Peer Review Process The peer review was performed against the requirements in Part 5 (Seismic) of Addenda B of the PRA Standard [4], using the peer review process defined in NEI 12-13 [5]. The review was conducted over a four-day period, with a summary and exit meeting on the morning of the fifth day.

The Seismic PRA peer review process defined in [5] involves an examination by each reviewed of their assigned PRA technical elements against the requirements in the Standard to ensure the robustness of the model relative to all of the requirements.

Implementing the review involves a combination of a broad scope examination of the PRA elements within the scope of the review and a deeper examination of portions of the PRA elements based on what is found during the initial review. The supporting requirements (SRs) provide a structure which, in combination with the peer reviewers PRA experience, provides the basis for examining the various PRA technical elements. If a reviewer identifies a question or discrepancy, that leads to additional investigation until the issue is resolved or a Fact and Observation (F&O) is written describing the issue and its potential impacts, and suggesting possible resolution.

For each area, i.e., SHA, SFR, SPR, a team of two peer reviewers were assigned, one having lead responsibility for that area. For each SR reviewed, the responsible reviewers reached consensus regarding which of the Capability Categories defined in the Standard that the PRA meets for that SR, and the assignment of the Capability Category for each SR was ultimately Page 112 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 based on the consensus of the full review team. The Standard also specifies high level requirements (HLR). Consistent with the guidance in the Standard, capability Categories were not assigned to the HLRs, but a qualitative assessment of the applicable HLRs in the context of the PRA technical element summary was made based on the associated SR Capability Categories.

As part of the review teams assessment of capability categories, F&Os are prepared. There are three types of F&Os defined in [5]: Findings, which identify issues that must be addressed in order for an SR (or multiple SRs) to meet Capability Category II; Suggestions, which identify issues that the reviewers have noted as potentially important but not requiring resolution to meet the SRs; and Best Practices, which reflect the reviewers opinion that a particular aspect of the review exceeds normal industry practice. The focus in this Appendix is on Findings and their disposition relative to this submittal.

A.2.3 Summary of the Peer Review The review teams assessment of the Seismic PRA elements is excerpted from the peer review report as follows. Where the review team identified issues, these are captured in peer review findings, for which the dispositions are summarized in the next section of this appendix.

A.2.3.1 Seismic Hazard Analysis (SHA)

As required by the Standard, the frequency of occurrence of earthquake ground motions at the site was based on a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA). The seismic source characterization (SSC) inputs to the PSHA are based on the recently completed CEUS regional seismic source model (Reference 7). The ground motion model (GMM) inputs to the PSHA are based on the CEUS ground motion update project (Reference 8). The Senior Seismic Hazard Analysis Committee (SSHAC) process of conducting a PSHA was used to develop both the SSC and GMM models used as inputs to the analysis. The SSHAC process defines a structured expert elicitation and minimum technical requirements to complete a PSHA. The SSHAC level of a seismic hazard study ensures that data, methods and models supporting the PSHA are fully incorporated and that uncertainties are fully considered in the process at sufficient depth and detail necessary to satisfy scientific and regulatory needs. The level of study is not mandated in the Standard; however, both the SSC and the GMM parts of the PSHA were developed as a result of SSHAC Level 3 analyses. In the case of the GMM, a SSHAC Level 2 analysis was carried out to update a prior Level 3 study. These Level 3 studies satisfy the requirements of the Standard.

As a first step to performing a PSHA, the Standard requires that an up-to-date database, including regional geological, seismological, geophysical data, and local site topography, and a compilation of information on surficial geologic and geotechnical site properties. These data include a catalog of relevant historical, instrumental, and paleo seismic information within 320 km of the site. The CEUS Seismic Source Characterization study involved an extensive data collection effort that satisfies the requirements of the Standard as it relates to developing a regional-scale seismic source model.

In the implementation of the CEUS Seismic Source Characterization model for the Watts Bar site, all distributed seismic sources in the CEUS Seismic Source Characterization model were included in the PSHA calculations. By including these seismic sources in the analysis, the contribution of near- and far-field earthquake sources to ground motions at Watts Bar were considered.

However, as part of the Watts Bar PSHA a limited effort was made to compile new (relative to the data used in the CEUS Seismic Source Characterization study) or local (relative to the regional scale) information that was not considered in the development of the CEUS Seismic Source Characterization regional-scale seismic sources. This includes the systematic collection Page 114 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 and evaluation of geologic, seismologic and geophysical information to assess whether new information or information at a local scale exists that would indicate new, local seismic sources or modifications to the CEUS regional-scale seismic sources are required.

The seismic hazard analysis for the Watts Bar site included a site response analysis. As part of the characterization of the site, both historical and new, site-specific shear-wave velocity measurements were used to inform the site response analysis. The Standard requires that spectral shapes be based on a site-specific evaluation taking into account the contributions of de-aggregated magnitude-distance results of the probabilistic seismic hazard analysis. The PSHA fully accounted for the near- and far-field source spectral shapes.

The Standard requires that sensitivity calculations be performed to document the models and parameters that are the primary contributors to the site hazard. In the Watts Bar PSHA only a limited number of sensitivity calculations and de-aggregation results were presented. As a result this requirement was not met.

Both the aleatory and epistemic uncertainties have been addressed in characterizing the seismic sources, ground motion models, and site response analyses. In addition, uncertainties in each step of the hazard analysis were propagated and displayed in the final quantification of hazard estimates for the Watts Bar site.

The Standard requires that documentation of the PSHA be provided that supports the PRA applications, peer review and potential future upgrades of the seismic hazard analysis. This requirement establishes a high standard for documentation of the PSHA that allows for examination of the PSHA methodology, its implementation, and the PSHA results to evaluate whether the approach is appropriate, the analyses were performed correctly, and the results are reasonable. The Watts Bar PSHA documentation does not fully satisfy the requirements of the Standard and therefore the associated requirement is not met.

A.2.3.2 Seismic Fragility Analysis (SFR)

Seismic fragility evaluations were performed for SSCs contributing to core damage and large early release. The fragility evaluations followed a systematic and documented process based on industry guidelines. Detailed seismic walkdowns were performed to support the fragility evaluation. Plant-specific data, including a large body of seismic qualification data, were used in the fragility evaluations. New seismic response analyses of buildings were performed to support the fragility analysis.

In general, the reported seismic capacities for SSCs are relatively high. This is not unreasonable given the seismic design basis for the plant. However, the fragility data are based on CDFM/HCLPF calculations and findings address the proper selection of parameters used in the HCLPF analysis. Also, it was found that certain failure modes, including building-building interaction, need to be more thoroughly investigated. For SSCs that are dominant contributors to risk, refined calculations are needed to ensure fragility data are realistic. Supplemental analysis is required to ensure the building response analysis provides appropriate site-specific estimates for in-structure demand.

Under the review for SFR-C, findings address additional checks needed to ensure in-structure response estimates are adequate when responses are based on a single time history set, checks to ensure structural properties used in the analysis are appropriate for ground motions that contribute most to the seismically induced core damage frequency and checks to verify masses and structural details are appropriately incorporated into building models.

Fragility calculations reviewed under SFR-F generated findings regarding proper application of seismic test data and choice of input for use in CDFM calculations. In some cases, analysis Page 115 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 simplifications were included that may obscure behaviors that are relevant to the fragility analysis.

For future work, including resolution of findings, the effort may benefit by establishing a definitive seismic screening level. By reference to a seismic screening level, one that is properly accounted for in the plant response model, certain failure modes can be treated in a simplified manner. For example, CDFM calculations using conservative parameters may be acceptable to show the seismic capacity associated with a certain failure mode is above the screening level and does not require detailed consideration.

A.2.3.3 Seismic Plant Response Analysis (SPR)

The Watts Bar Seismic PRA addresses the seismic equipment list and adequately modifies the internal events model to reflect seismic specific initiators and failure modes. While a systematic process was apparently developed to capture the entire spectrum of seismic-induced events, it was not followed consistently such that a number of initiators and associated fragilities do not appear to be consistently modeled or appropriately documented. While this is not expected to result in a significant impact to the insights from the current model, it needs to be addressed to fully meet SR SPR-A1.

The internal events Human Reliability Assessment has also been modified to reflect the seismic specific Performance Shaping Factor. The WBN Seismic PRA team did not perform any walkdowns to support the feasibility of ex-control room action, which the peer reviewer considered necessary to fully meet the intent of SR SPR-B6, which is therefore judged not to be met.

The quantification process is judged to adequately identify the significant risk contributors based on the system model and the computed fragilities. The model generates a meaningful risk profile for the Watts Bar plant. Only the Unit 2 model was fully quantified, with a complete uncertainty analysis, which generates a difference between the technical adequacy of the U1 vs. the U2 model. SR SPR-E5 is met at Capability Category I for U1 and at Capability Category I/II/III for the U2 model.

The review team concluded that, in general, the data, methodologies and seismic risk models used for the Watts Bar unit 1 & 2 were appropriate and sufficient to meet the majority of the Standard requirements. As noted in the peer review report, the PRA standard was met for all but 10 supporting requirements. In the judgment of the peer review team, the TVA Seismic PRA meets the remaining supporting requirements based on the Seismic PRA methodology used, the Seismic PRA models and results, and the detailed documentation.

A.2.3.4 Peer Review Findings Based on the peer review, the Watts Bar Seismic PRA is judged to be consistent with the PRA Standard and can be used for risk-informed applications. If the areas identified for enhancements in the Seismic PRA impact a specific risk-informed application, then additional bounding analyses may be required to support that application.

In summary, the peer review team concludes that the technical adequacy of the Watts Bar Seismic PRA is very good and meets most of the requirements of the PRA Standard.

However, the peer review team identified specific areas for improving the technical adequacy of the Seismic PRA. These areas are documented as Facts and Observations (F&Os). At the conclusion of the Peer Review, there were 74 open Finding Level F&Os.

Page 116 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 A.3 REVISION OF MODEL AND DOCUMENTATION Following the peer review, the WBN Seismic PRA model and documentation were updated to address each of the 74 F&Os. In addition, TVA generated closure documentation for each of the F&Os from the Peer Review against the ASME/ANS PRA Standard of the WBN Seismic PRA.

Subsequently, the updated WBN Seismic PRA model and documentation were subjected to an independent closure review. This review is described in Section A.4.

A.4 FINDING LEVEL F&O INDEPENDENT CLOSURE REVIEW The WBN Seismic PRA F&O Technical Review was performed at the Jensen Hughes Offices in Baltimore, MD, April 10 - 13, 2017. The purpose was to perform an independent assessment to review TVAs close out of Finding level F&Os of record from the WBN Seismic PRA peer review against the ASME/ANS PRA Standard.

The process used for the independent technical review is outlined in the Appendix X of NEI 12-13, which has been accepted by NRC. The review focused on the closure of the 74 open F&Os.

The result of this technical review is intended to support future WBN Licensing Amendment Request (LAR) submittals and other regulatory interactions. Finding Level F&O dispositions reviewed and determined to have been adequately addressed through this technical review are considered closed and no longer relevant to the current PRA model, and thus need not be carried forward nor discussed in such future activities.

The Technical Review Team consisted of six team members and a dedicated team lead, all of whom have extensive qualifications and many years of experience in the pertinent areas of Seismic PRA and peer review. All reviewers met the criteria specified in NEI 05-04, NEI 12-13, and the ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009 PRA Standard Section 1-6.2.

A.4.1 Summary of the Finding Level F&O Independent Technical Review Process Review team criteria (NEI 12-13 and Section 2.2) and Review Schedule (NEI 12-13 Section 2-3) were addressed in recruiting and approving the closure review team members and defining the schedule for the review. Reviewer independence was established, approved, and documented in the closure review report. Reviewer experience meets the criteria specified in the NEI guidance documents and ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009 PRA Standard Section 1-6.2. Overall review team experience is such that there were two qualified reviewers for each F&O.

TVA provided the PRA model files and PRA notebooks sufficiently in advance of the start of the onsite review to allow the reviewers to prepare and conduct a more efficient technical review.

As input to the review, TVA provided a copy of the WBN peer review report, the list of peer review findings to be considered, and their suggested resolution of each finding.

In accordance with the guidance in NEI 12-13, Appendix X, a lead reviewer and supporting reviewer was assigned for each Technical Element. The associated Finding F&Os, and made the initial determination regarding adequacy of resolution of each finding within their scope. A consensus process was followed during which the full team present on the day of the associated consensus session considered and reached consensus on the adequacy of resolution of each finding using the appropriate SRs of the ASME/ANS PRA Standard for the review criteria.

SUMMARY

OF TECHNICAL ADEQUACY OF THE SEISMIC PRA The set of supporting requirements from the ASME/ANS PRA Standard [4] that are identified in Tables 6-4 through 6-6 of the SPID [2] define the technical attributes of a PRA model required for a Seismic PRA used to respond to implement the 50.54(f) letter. The conclusions of the peer review discussed above and summarized in this submittal demonstrates that the WBN Seismic PRA model meets the expectations for PRA scope and technical adequacy as presented in RG 1.200, Revision 2 [11] as clarified in the SPID [2].

The main body of this report provides a description of the Seismic PRA methodology, including:

Summary of the seismic hazard analysis (Section 3)

Summary of the structures and fragilities analysis (Section 4)

Summary of the seismic walkdowns performed (Section 4)

Summary of the internal events at power PRA model on which the Seismic PRA is based, for SCDF and LERF (Section 5)

Summary of adaptations made in the internal events PRA model to produce the seismic PRA model and bases for the adaptations (Section 5)

Detailed archival information for the Seismic PRA consistent with the listing in Section 4.1 of RG 1.200 Rev. 2 is available if required to facilitate the NRC staffs review of this submittal.

The WBN Seismic PRA reflects the as-built and as-operated plant as of the cutoff date for the Seismic PRA, January 2014. There are no permanent plant changes that have not been reflected in the Seismic PRA model.

SUMMARY

OF TECHNICAL ADEQUACY OF THE WBN INTERNAL EVENTS PRA The PWR Owners Group performed a full scope peer review of the WBN internal events PRA and internal flooding PRA that forms the basis for the Seismic PRA to determine compliance with ASME PRA Standard, RA-S-2008, including the 2009 Addenda A [4] and RG 1.200 [11] in the week of November 16, 2009 . This peer review was performed using the process defined in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 05-04. The ASME/ANS PRA standard contains a total of 326 numbered supporting requirements for internal events and internal flooding in nine technical elements and the configuration control element. Nine of the SRs were determined to be not applicable to the WBN PRA. Of the 317 remaining SRs, 272 SRs, or 86%, were rated as SR Met, Capability Category I/II, or greater. Nineteen (19 SRs) were rated as Category I and twenty-six (26 SRs) were not met.

In the course of this review, 50 new finding level Facts and Observations (F&Os) were prepared. Many of these F&Os involve documentation issues. All of the internal events and internal flooding PRA peer review findings were addressed prior to the WBN Internal Events PRA model being used as the basis for the WBN Seismic PRA Model. The resolutions of these F&Os have been assessed to determine their impact on the Seismic PRA in Table A-3.

A peer review findings closure review was performed for the WBN Units 1 and 2 Internal Events PRA from June 19 through June 22, 2017. The review evaluated how TVA addressed the F&Os that were classified as Findings from the 2009 peer review conducted by the Westinghouse Owners Group. The closure review was performed in accordance with the process documented in Appendix X to NEI 05-04, as well as the requirements published in the ASME/ANS PRA Standard (RA-Sa-2009) and US Nuclear Regulatory Guide 1.200, Revision 2.

The assessment was performed by a team of three independent PRA experts. The requirements for a findings closure review (as documented in Appendix X to NEI 05-04 and other industry documents) were complied with. Each F&O closure was reviewed by at least two Page 121 of 146

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 team members and consensus sessions were held to determine whether the F&Os could be considered to be closed.

In addition to assessing the closure status, the changes made to the WBN PRA to address the F&O were also evaluated to determine whether the changes constituted a PRA Upgrade or if new PRA methods were introduced. The definition of PRA Upgrade as defined in the ASME/ANS PRA Standard was used. The performance of a PRA upgrade or the use of new methods would require that a peer review be performed instead of a findings closure review.

The 2009 internal events PRA peer review identified 50 Findings. The initial results of the closure review show that 36 of these findings can now be considered to be closed. The findings closure review process allows for TVA to submit updated PRA models or documentation to the review team prior to the publication of the closure report, if the initial assessment by the review team was that an F&O wasnt fully closed due to relatively minor residual issues. A number of the findings will be addressed during the 2017 calendar year.

Further, there are ventilation dampers that would dewater the area when the level reached approximately 24" which again would Page 136 of 146

Another example is the assumption that a spray will fail AFW TDP control panels. The panels are vented but the events are sparse and completely covered/shielded from downward spray. It does not seem likely that a spray event would impact the cabinet unless a very specific pattern was defined.

This also allows for zone of influence split fractions that can limit sequences and lower overall frequency.

This seems to be in contrast to the SR to adjust psfs to address addition stress and environment following a flood event. This is particularly of interest for events that could include damaged systems such as starting a CCP (HACV2) which could increase flooding rates or results in failure of standby equipment.

Possible Resolution Develop a more detailed assessment of why no change would be anticipated for actions or perform a psf evaluation concentrating on those events that could compound the event (fail equipment due to lack of cooling for instance).

WBN 50.54(f) NTTF 2.1 Seismic PRA Summary Report June 2017 A.8 IDENTIFICATION OF KEY ASSUMPTIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES The PRA Standard [4] includes a number of requirements related to identification and evaluation of the impact of assumptions and sources of uncertainty on the PRA results. NUREG-1855 [13]

and EPRI 1016737 [14] provide guidance on assessment of uncertainty for applications of a PRA. As described in NUREG-1855, sources of uncertainty include parametric uncertainties, modeling uncertainties, and completeness (or scope and level of detail) uncertainties.

Parametric uncertainty was addressed as part of the WBN Seismic PRA model quantification (see Section 5 of this submittal).

Modeling uncertainties are considered in both the base internal events PRA and the Seismic PRA. Assumptions are made during the PRA development as a way to address a particular modeling uncertainty because there is not a single definitive approach.

Plant-specific assumptions made for each of the WBN Seismic PRA technical elements are noted in the Seismic PRA documentation that was subject to peer review, and a summary of important modeling assumptions is included in Section 5.

Completeness uncertainty addresses scope and level of detail. Uncertainties associated with scope and level of detail are documented in the PRA but are only considered for their impact on a specific application. No specific issues of PRA completeness were identified in the Seismic PRA peer review.

A summary of potentially important sources of uncertainty in the WBN Seismic PRA is listed in Table A-4.
