Attachment II to ET 15-0014 Page 1 of 11 Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation's Response to Request for Additional Information Reference 1 provided the Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation (WCNOC) Overall Integrated Plan (OIP). Reference 2 provided a Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Interim Staff Evaluation and Request for Additional Information (RAI) related to the OIP. Provided below are the responses to the questions in Reference 2. The specific request is provided in italics followed by WCNOC's response.

RAI No. 1 Pleaseprovide the results of the calculation used to determine the water elevation necessary for the pump's requiredNPSH to confirm that Level 1 has been adequately identified.

Response: The existing calculation, EC-48, "Minimum Safety Limit for LSL-57 & 58"concludes that the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) water elevation that is sufficient for the pump's required Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) is EL. 2043'-6". Level 1 indication is at the normal SFP water operating level of EL. 2046'-0". This confirms that Level 1 has sufficiently covered the calculated level to maintain the pump's required NPSH.

RAI No. 2 Please provide the following:

a) The plant-specific performance evaluation result and a brief summary of the proposed wireless technology that will be used in the primary and backup measurement systems to addressthe criteriasummarized in Section 3. 1 of NEI 12-02.

b) A description of the proposed wireless SFP instrumentation connections. Indicate whether the proposed SFP wireless instrumentation will use an existing wireless network or would use a dedicatedpoint-to-point transmissionpath.

c) Furtherinformation on how the proposed SFP wireless instrumentation will be designed and installed to address electromagnetic interference/radiofrequency interference (EMIIRFI) emissions/susceptibilityissues under BDB event conditions.

d) A description of the manner by which the proposed SFP wireless instrumentation will be operable and available under BDB event conditions.

Response: For items a) through d) above, WCNOC has opted to use hardwired Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation System (SFPIS) instead of wireless during final design development.

RAI No. 3 Please provide additional information describing how the proposed arrangementof the routing of the cabling between the sensor probes in the SFP to the wireless transmitters meets the Order requirement to arrange the SFP level instrument channels in a manner that provides reasonable protection of the level indication function against missiles that may result from damage to the structure over the SFP.

Attachment II to ET 15-0014 Page 2 of 11 Response: The primary element is located at the North end of the pool at the East corner. The element terminates into a 90 degree metal coupler. The coupler is connected into liquid tight EMI/RFI resistant flex conduit, transitioning into rigid metal conduit. The rigid metal conduit is first routed horizontally close to the fuel pool floor and then routed vertically, up the North wall before turning West and running horizontally before exiting the fuel handling building into the auxiliary building.

The backup element is located at the North end of the pool at the West corner. Like the primary element, the backup element terminates into a 90 degree metal coupler. The coupler is connected into liquid tight EMI/RFI resistant flex conduit, transitioning into rigid metal conduit.

The rigid metal conduit is first routed horizontally close to the fuel pool floor and maintains this above floor level route before turning West and running horizontally before exiting the fuel handling building into the auxiliary building.

A separation distance of greater than 16' is maintained between primary and backup conduits routed in the fuel handling building.

By routing primary and backup cables in flex and rigid conduit and providing significant physical separation between primary and backup cables in the fuel handling building, missiles will not disable both primary and backup systems of the SFPIS.

RAI No. 4 Please provide the results of the analyses used to verify the design criteria and methodology for seismic testing of the SFP instrumentation and the electronics units, including, design basis maximum seismic loads and the hydrodynamic loads that could result from pool sloshing or other effects that could accompany such seismic forces.

Response: Analysis results: The mounting bracket for the sensing probe was designed according to the plant design basis for Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) seismic hazard curve at the pool deck elevation. Loads that were considered in the evaluation of the bracket and its mounting are: 1) Static loads including the dead weight of the mounting bracket in addition to the weight of the level sensing instruments and cabling; 2) Dynamic loads including the seismic load due to excitation of the instruments dead weight in addition to the hydrodynamic effects resulting from the excitation of the SFP water.

A response spectra analysis was performed for the seismic evaluation of the mounting bracket using GT STRUDL. Hydrodynamic effects on the mounting bracket were evaluated using Reference 5 and added to the GT STRUDL model. Plant acceptance criteria and applicable codes were used for the design of the bracket and its anchorage. All members' results were shown to be adequate for the loads and load combinations used in the analysis. Welded and bolted connections were evaluated and were shown to be adequate with significant margin.

Base plate of the mounting bracket and anchorage to concrete were evaluated using Plate Wizard in GT STRUDL and designed to meet the plant criteria for base plates and anchors.

Seismic testinq results: Seismic testing results analyses are provided in the response for RAI 8.

The seismic testing for the Westinghouse SFPIS demonstrated that the SFPIS operates reliably per the seismic requirements.

RAI No. 5 For each of the mounting attachments required to attach SFP Level equipment to plant structures, please describe the design inputs, and the methodology that was used to qualify the structuralintegrity of the affected structures/equipment.

Attachment IIto ET 15-0014 Page 3 of 11 Response: The design input and qualification methodology is consistent with the current seismic design for existing plant structures/equipment. As stated in Reference 6, industry standards, such as those published by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM),

are used whenever possible to specify material properties, testing procedures, fabrication, and construction methods. The applicable standards used within the Auxiliary and Fuel Building are discussed in Reference 6, Section 3.8.3.6. For example, embedded anchor bolt materials conform to the applicable requirements of ASTM A540 for Alloy Steel bolting Materials for Special Applications.

The mounting attachments are qualified by analysis. With the exception of the level sensor probe mounting bracket, all the system equipment is seismically qualified by testing. The outputs of the seismic test of all equipment were used as the design input for the qualification of the mounting for that specific equipment.

The mounting bracket for the sensing probe was designed according to the plant design basis for SSE seismic hazard curve at the appropriate plant elevation. Loads that were considered in the evaluation of the bracket and its mounting are: 1) Static loads including the dead weight of the mounting bracket in addition to the weight of the level sensing instruments, pipe guard and cabling; 2) Dynamic loads including the seismic load due to excitation of the dead weight of the system in addition to the hydrodynamic effects resulting from the excitation of the SFP water.

A response spectra analysis was performed for the seismic evaluation of the mounting bracket using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software and using floor response spectrum at the operating deck elevation. Hydrodynamic effects on the mounting bracket were evaluated using Reference 5. Plant acceptance criteria and applicable codes were used for the design of the bracket and its anchorage.

RAI No. 6 Please provide the following:

a) Information describing the temperature ratings for all system electronics (including sensor electronics, system electronics, level and wireless transmitter, wireless receiver and display) and whether the ratingsare continuous duty ratings; and, b) Information describing what will be the maximum expected temperature and relative humidity conditions in the room(s) in which the sensor electronics and wireless technologies will be located under BDB conditions in which there is no ac power available to run Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning(HVAC) systems.

c) Analysis of the maximum expected radiologicalconditions (dose rate and total integrated dose) to which the equipment will be exposed. Also, please provide documentation indicating the radiological dosage amount that the electronics for this equipment is capable of withstanding. Please discuss the time period over which the analyzed total integrateddose was applied.

Attachment II to ET 15-0014 Page 4 of 11

Response

a) Components in the Fuel Building (the probe, cable assembly and coupler for the level sensors) are qualified for Beyond Design Basis (BDB) conditions of 212°F at atmospheric pressure.

For components in the Auxiliary Building, the sensor electronics are rated for and were tested at 140°F at atmospheric pressure.

These ratings are continuous duty ratings.

b) The equipment qualifications delineated in Reference 7 are not exceeded in the location of the sensor electronics.

Qualitatively, due to the lack of water sources in the rooms, the increasing temperatures in the rooms will cause the relative humidity of the rooms to decrease relative to their starting humidity.

There is no non-Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) flowpath into the Auxiliary Building HVAC Area rooms (Room 1501 and Room 1512) or Personal Hatch Area (Room 1507), so there will be minimal outside influence to the room humidity if the HVAC fails.

The sensor electronics are located at the 2047' elevation in the Auxiliary Building Control Room HVAC Equipment Rooms (Room 1501 and Room 1512) and the Personal Hatch Area (Room 1507). There are no high energy lines located on the 2047' elevation of the Auxiliary Building. The sensor electronics are rated for humidity of 0-95% (non-condensing). The normal temperature for these three rooms is 104 0 F. Without ventilation and no significant heat sources, the temperatures will not exceed the 140°F temperature used by Westinghouse as the operating temperature of the equipment.

The Fuel Building is connected to the Auxiliary Building on the 2047' elevation by a pressure door (Door 15071). As a pressure boundary door, it is designed to limit leakage. Leakage through the pressure boundary door would be diluted by the large volume of the hallways. Therefore, environmental conditions in Rooms 1501, 1507, and 1512 are expected to remain within equipment qualification parameters.

Components in the Fuel Building (level sensors and their respective cables) are qualified for BDB conditions of 100% humidity (saturated steam).

c) A summary of the radiological conditions to which the equipment is qualified is provided below. Vendor tests and analysis demonstrating the qualifications of the equipment installed are detailed in Westinghouse proprietary documents References 9 and 10.

Radiologqical conditions for the SFPIS components in the SFP area:

The coaxial cable, the coupler, the pool-side bracket, and the probe in the SFP area are required to operate reliably in the service radiological conditions specified in the table below.

Attachment II to ET 15-0014 Page 5 of 11 Parameter Normal Beyond Design Basis Radiation Total Integrated 1E03 Rads y 1E07 Rads y Dose (TID) (above pool)

Radiation TID (12" above < 1E09 Rads y (probe 1E07 Rads y top of fuel rack) & weight only) II The SFP area radiological conditions are detailed in Reference 9.

Radioloqical conditions outside of the SFP area:

The level sensor electronics, sensor electronics bracket, indicators, and the electronics enclosures outside of the spent fuel pool area are required to operate reliably in the service environmental conditions specified in the table below.

Parameter Normal Beyond Design Basis Radiation TID < 1E03 Rads y < 1E03 Rads y There are no active electronics in the Fuel Building. The transmitter electronics are physically located in the Auxiliary Building and therefore are not subjected to the same post-event (BDB) radiological conditions as identified in Section 3.4, "Qualifications" of Reference 11.

During a BDB event, the expected radiological conditions (dose rate and total integrated dose) in the Auxiliary Building are consistent with normal operating conditions identified in Attachment A and Attachment B of Reference 12 based on the following:

  • SFP makeup capabilities (>250 gpm) exceed calculated full core offload boil off of approximately 136 gpm.

RAI No. 7 Please provide the following:

a) Information describing the evaluation of the sensor electronics design, the shock test method, test results, and forces applied to the sensor electronics applicable to its successful tests demonstrating that the testing provides an appropriate means to demonstratereliability of the sensor electronics under the effects of severe shock.

b) Information describing the evaluation of the sensor electronics design, the vibration test method, test results, the forces and their frequency ranges and directions applied to the sensor applicable to its successful tests, demonstrating that the testing provides an appropriatemeans to demonstrate reliability of the sensor electronics under the effects of high vibration.

Attachment II to ET 15-0014 Page 6 of 11 Response: Reference 13 documents an audit by the NRC of the Westinghouse SFP Instrumentation in support of the review of the Watts Bar Nuclear (WBN) Plant Integrated Plan in response to Order EA-12-051. Reference 13 states, "The review of the audit activities and results summarized in this report apply to WBN and other licensees using Westinghouse's level instrumentation technology."

a) Item 5 of Reference 13 provides information describing the evaluation of the sensor electronics design, the shock test method, test results, and forces applied to the sensor electronics applicable to its successful tests.

b) Item 5 of Reference 13 provides information describing the evaluation of the sensor electronics design, the vibration test method, test results, the forces and their frequency ranges and directions applied to the sensor applicable to its successful tests.

RAI No. 8 Please provide analysis of the seismic testing results and show that the instrument (including wireless technology) performance reliability, following exposure to simulated seismic conditions representative of the environment anticipatedfor the SFP structures at Wolf Creek Generating Station has been adequately demonstrated. Include information describing the design inputs and methodology used in any analyses of the mountings of electronic equipment onto plant structures,as requested in RAI No. 4 above.

Response: Item 2 of the audit report enclosed with Reference 13 addresses the seismic testing results.

RAI No. 9 Please provide the NRC staff with the final configuration of the power supply source for each channel so that the staff may conclude that the two channels are independent from a power supply assignmentperspective.

Response: The primary and backup SFPIS channels are powered by separate Alternating Current (AC) buses. One of the channels is powered by Class 1E electrical bus NG01A via non-Class 1 electrical panel PN07, while the other channel is powered by Class 1E electrical bus NG02A via non-Class 1 electrical panel PN08.

Each SFPIS channel of equipment has an independent Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with 24V battery backup that ensures at least 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> of battery power without AC.

Additionally, an interface is provided for an alternate power supply, such as a FLEX generator.

The SFP level can be continuously monitored for at least 3 days under station blackout conditions with battery power only and for the required 7 days with an alternate power supply (References 14, 15, and 16).

RAI No. 10 Please provide the following:

a) A description of the electrical ac power sources and capabilities for the primary and backup channels.

Attachment IIto ET 15-0014 Page 7 of 11 b) Please provide the results of the calculation depicting the battery backup duty cycle requirements demonstrating that its capacity is sufficient to maintain the level indication function until offsite resource availabilityis reasonablyassured.

Response

a) The primary and backup SFPIS channels are powered by separate AC buses. One of the channels is powered by Class 1E electrical bus NG01A via non-Class 1 electrical panel PN07, while the other channel is powered by Class 1 E electrical bus NG02A via non-Class 1 electrical panel PN08.

Each SFPIS channel of equipment has an independent UPS with 24V battery backup that ensures at least 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> of battery power without AC. Additionally, an interface is provided for an alternate power supply, such as a FLEX generator. The SFP level can be continuously monitored for at least 3 days under station blackout conditions with battery power only and for the required 7 days with an alternate power supply (References 14, 15, and 16).

b) Power consumption calculation Reference 18 demonstrates that the SFPIS will last for greater than 3 days from a fully charged battery after AC power loss. The calculation includes design and aging margin.

RAI No. 11 Please provide the following:

a) An estimate of the expected instrument channel accuracy performance under both (a) normal SFP level conditions (approximately Level I or higher) and (b) at the BDB conditions (i.e., radiation, temperature, humidity, post-seismic and post-shock conditions) that would be present if the SFP level were at the Level 2 and Level 3 datum points.

b) A description of the methodology that will be used for determining the maximum allowed deviation from the instrument channel design accuracy that will be employed under normal operating conditions as an acceptance criterion for a calibrationprocedure to flag to operators.

Response

a) Channel accuracy for each SFPIS instrument channel is +/- 3 inches for the full level measurement span. This span extends from the normal SFP surface level or higher to within six inches of the fuel assembly under both normal and BDB conditions. More details describing measurement accuracy are described in References 7 and 19.

Attachment II to ET 15-0014 Page 8 of 11 b) Channel accuracy requirements are identified in Reference 7 and demonstrated by Reference 19. Both SFP primary and backup redundant sensor electronics require periodic calibration verification to check that the channel's measurement performance is within the specified tolerance (+/- 3 inches). If the difference is larger than the allowable tolerance during the verification process, an electronic output calibration will be required.

If the electronic output calibration does not restore the performance, a troubleshooting Work Request will be generated for further adjustments or parts replacement.

The electronic output verification/calibration will verify electronics are working properly using simulated probe signals.

The calibration adjustment is performed to restore level measurement accuracy to within the acceptance criteria at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% points of the full span.

The calibration verification and calibration acceptance criteria and procedures are defined in the proprietary Westinghouse procedure Reference 20.

RAI No. 12 Please provide the following:

a) A description of the capability and provisions the proposed level sensing equipment will have to enable periodic testing and calibration, including how this capability enables the equipment to be tested in-situ.

b) A description of how such testing and calibration will enable the conduct of regular channel checks of each independent channel against the other, and against any other permanently installed SPF level instrumentation.

c) A description how calibration tests and functional checks will be performed and the frequency at which they will be conducted. Please discuss how these surveillances will be incorporatedinto the plant surveillanceprogram.

d) A description what preventive maintenance tasks are required to be performed during normal operation, and the planned maximum surveillance interval that is necessary to ensure that the channels are fully conditioned to accurately and reliably perform their functions when needed.

Response

a) Reference 13 documents an audit by the NRC of the Westinghouse SFP Instrumentation in support of the review of the Watts Bar Nuclear (WBN) Plant integrated plan in response to Order EA-12-051. Reference 13 states, "The review of the audit activities and results summarized in this report apply to WBN and other licensees using Westinghouse's level instrumentation technology." Item 6 of Reference 13 describes the capability and provisions the proposed level sensing equipment will have.

Attachment IIto ET 15-0014 Page 9 of 11 b) Channel comparisons, comparing level indication on one channel against the level indication on the other channel, will be performed on a daily basis.

c) The SFPIS calibration tests and functional checks are summarized in part a) above and in more detail in Reference 20. The periodic calibration tests and functional checks will be performed within 60 days of a planned refueling outage considering normal testing scheduling allowances (e.g., 25%). This calibration check is not required to be performed more than once per 12 months.

d) Preventive maintenance tasks include the periodic calibration tests and functional checks described above. These tasks will be performed within 60 days of a planned refueling outage considering normal testing scheduling allowances (e.g., 25%).

Additionally, this task will inspect the probe to ensure no frays or nicks have occurred since the last task performance and to remove any significant accumulation of boron.

The indication and other electronics will also be checked or calibrated at the same frequency as the functional checks described in the response to c) above.

RAI No. 13 Please provide the following:

a) Further information describing the maintenance and testing program the licensee will establish and implement to ensure that regular testing and calibration is performed and verified by inspection and audit to demonstrate conformance with design and system readinessrequirements. Include a description of your plans for ensuring that necessary channel checks, functional tests, periodic calibration,and maintenance will be conducted for the level measurement system and its supporting equipment.

b) A description of the in-situ calibrationprocess at the SFP location that will result in the channel calibrationbeing maintainedat its design accuracy.

c) A description of what compensatory actions are planned in the event that the non-functioning instrument channel cannot be restored to functional status within 90 days.

Response

a) The maintenance and testing program will ensure that regular testing and calibration is performed and verified. Calibration and testing for the instruments will be based on Reference 20, as adapted to specific site procedures.

Site specific procedures will define the periodicity for Operator rounds to compare the primary and backup instrument channel indications to determine if more immediate action is required for calibration, maintenance or compensatory action implementation.

The periodic testing recommended to validate the functionality of the installed instrument channel will be performed within 60 days of a planned refueling outage with a normal testing allowance of 25% but not more than once per 12 month period.

b) Reference 13 documents an audit by the NRC of the Westinghouse SFP Instrumentation in support of the review of the Watts Bar Nuclear (WBN) Plant integrated plan in response to Order EA-12-051. Reference 13 states, "The review of the audit activities and results summarized in this report apply to WBN and other licensees using

Attachment II to ET 15-0014 Page 10 of 11 Westinghouse's level instrumentation technology." Item 6 of Reference 13 addresses the in-situ calibration process.

c) If the non-functioning instrument channel cannot be returned to service within the 90 day period, enhanced monitoring through operator rounds will be performed to compare the available instrument channel indications to existing SFP level. The determination for time frames for enhanced monitoring will be defined as procedure development is finalized.
