Safety Evaluation Report Related To The License Renewal of Columbia Generating Stations (TAC NO, ME3058)"

Dear Sir or Madam:

By Reference 1, Energy Northwest requested the renewal of the Columbia Generating Station (Columbia) operating license.

By Reference 2, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) provided Energy Northwest the Safety Evaluation Report (SER) with open items. The three attachments to this letter provide the Energy Northwest comments regarding the SER. The comments have been divided into three categories for your review. Attachment 1 contains comments regarding statements in the SER that Energy Northwest believes require revision. Energy Northwest believes these comments should be incorporated into the final SER. addresses content in the SER that had not been updated to reflect Energy Northwest responses to requests for information (RAIs) from the NRC or amendments to the License Renewal Application (LRA) that Energy Northwest submitted to the NRC. contains editorial comments.

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 1 of 7 SER COMMENTS Information in the SER Requiring Revision No. Section Page Comment 2.1.4.1.2 2-10 2 nd Paragraph from bottom states: 'The staff reviewed the applicant's response to RAI 2.1-1(A) and determined that the applicant had described the process used to evaluate the functions of components, identified as safety-related in the plant equipment (Passport) database and located in the turbine building, to determine whether nonsafety-related SSCs located in the turbine building could affect the performance of the safety-related SCs. These nonsafety-related SSCs were, therefore, included within the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(2)."

However no nonsafety related SSCs in the TB were added to scope of LR in RAI 2.1-1(A). The components that were added to scope of LR are SR. See the last paragraph of G02-10-095 RAI 2.1-1 (A) response.

2 2.1.4.2.3 2-18 The conclusion states that the methodology pursuant to 54.4(a)(1) is acceptable.

However, the subject of section 2.1.4.2 is 54.4(a)(2).

2.3.3.32.1 2-74 This section states:

'The failure of nonsafety-related SSCs in the primary containment system potentially could prevent the satisfactory accomplishment of a safety-related function; therefore, the primary containment system was determined to meet the scoping criteria of 10 CFR 54.4(a)(2)."

3 However, LRA section 2.3.3.32 states the following:

'The Primary Containment System does not contain NSR components that are attached to or located near safety-related SSCs, whose failure creates a potential for spatial interaction that could prevent the satisfactory accomplishment of any of the functions identified in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1). Therefore, the Primary Containment System does not meet the scoping criteria of 10 CFR 54.4(a)(2)."

2.3.3.48.1 & 2-85 & 86 Discussion of 10 CFR 54.5(a)(1) should refer to 54.4 rather than 54.5 4 2.3.3.49.1 &

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 2 of 7 SER COMMENTS Information in the SER Requiring Revision No. Section Page Comment 2.4.8.1 1 st paragraph - uses the word 'radwaste' from in front of the words 'control room'.

6 pg. 2-98 Columbia has two control rooms; the main control room and the radwaste control room.

Only the main control room is in scope. Remove the word "radwaste". See last sentence on this SER page and LRA sect. 2.4.8 1 st sentence.

2.4.12.1 pg. 2-102 3 rd paragraph after bullets - First two sentences should be joined to read "... the plant structuresimportant to safety in the unlikely event of a tower collapse.' Also, this 7 paragraph should be discussing the cooling tower basins and there is no mention of the basins or why they are in-scope (feed-and-bleed mode of operation). See LRA sect.

2.4.12.3.

2.4.12.1 2-102 Suggest listing the purpose of the cooling tower basins.

Add to the end of the cooling towers paragraph 'The cooling towers are not within the 8 scope of license renewal, but the cooling tower basins are within license renewal scope since they are part of the bleed path in the feed-and-bleed mode in the event that the spray pond spray headers are damaged by a tornado-generated missile."

2.4.12.1 2-102 Paragraph on HSSF, 2 nd sentence. The HSSF facility is not a building. Suggest changing 'The b, ildifi, foundation and anchorage are designed to remain in place for 9 both design basis tornado characteristics and maximum probable flood." to

'The HSSF liquid hydrogen storage tank, foundation and anchorage are designed to remain in place for both design basis tornado characteristics and maximum probable flood."

3.0.1.2 3-3 The first paragraph states, "For example, the ESF group has table's specific to the core spray system, high-pressure coolant injection system, and residual heat removal (RHR) 10 system." However, Columbia's ECCS system includes HPCS, LPCS, and RHR (operating in the LPCI mode). Columbia does not have high-pressure coolant injection system.

3.0.3.1.1 pg. 3-12 The percentages provided in the 2nd paragraph are incorrectly used. The maximum 11 allowable startup containment leakage rate is 0.6La which is different than 0.6 percent.

See LRA B.2.3.

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 3 of 7 SER COMMENTS Information in the SER Requiring Revision No. Section Page Comment 3.0.3.1.11 3-51 Operating Experience - Second sentence states - 'The applicant stated that a review of plant-specific operating experience for the air receiver tanks indicated no loss of material." However, LRA section B.2.2 (Air Quality Sampling) under OE which states 12 'With the exception of the DSA system there have been no failures or significant degradation of components ... Also in 3Td paragraph "Degradation has been identified in the DSA System." The DSA air receivers are managed by the Air Quality Sampling Program.

13 3.0.3.1.25 3-103 Element 7, second sentence; there are three standby surveillance capsules in Columbia's reactor vessel RV vice two. (Ref. FSAR 5.3.1.6.1) 3.0.3.1.30 3-113 In the Staff Evaluation subsection, in the discussion of the applicant response to RAI 14 B.2.52-2, the staff quotes the applicant as saying "...Article IWB-3500 does specify..."

The sentence should be corrected to state that IWB does not specify 3.0.3.2.4 3-134 In the second paragraph under Exception 1, the SER states the following:

"...the applicant's corrosion rate measurements within this AMP, combined with the one-time Chemistry Program Effectiveness Inspection Program, and the one-time Heat Exchangers Inspection Program will monitor the effects of corrosion and SCC..."

However, LRA section B.2.13 states:

15 'The Closed Cooling Water Chemistry Program is supplemented by the Chemistry Program Effectiveness Inspection for managing loss of material and cracking. The Closed Cooling Water Chemistry Program is supplemented by the Heat Exchangers Inspection for managing reduction in heat transfer."

The Heat Exchangers Inspection manages reduction in heat transfer, not corrosion and SCC. See LRA section B.2.30 (Heat Exchangers Inspection).

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 4 of 7 SER COMMENTS Information in the SER Requiring Revision No. Section Page Comment 3.2.2 (Table 3-328 For the GALL Item No. 3.2.1-10 row, the SER states that this item is not applicable to 3.2-1) Columbia, and refers to SER Section 3.2.2.2.4. SER Section 3.2.2.2.4 (2) states the following:

"The applicant stated that this item is not applicable because, other than the RHR system, Columbia has no in-scope stainless steel heat exchanger tubes exposed to 16 treated water in the ESF systems, and the stainless steel heat exchanger components in the RHR system have been evaluated with the closed-cycle cooling water system components in LRA Table 3.3.1, Item 3.3.1-3."

However, the LRA (Table 3.2.1 and Section 3.2.2.2.4.2) indicates that GALL Item No.

3.2.1-10 is applicable, and credits the BWR Water Chemistry Program and the Heat Exchangers Inspection.

3.3.2.3.7 3-429 Second paragraph on this page states:

The staff reviewed the applicant's Selective Leaching Inspection Program, and its evaluation is documented in SER Section 3.0.3.1.26. The staff reviewed Table IX.C of the GALL Report that states that copper alloys (greater than 15 percent zinc) are susceptible to aging effects, such as SCC, selective leaching, pitting, and crevice corrosion. Thus, the applicant's use of the reduction in heat 17 transfer aging effect is appropriate. The staff finds that the applicant's proposal to manage aging using the Selective Leaching Inspection Program is acceptable because the program uses visual inspections as well as testing of water chemistry in order to...

Bolded sentence seems out of context with discussion in this paragraph and the preceding 2 paragraphs in the SER. All the copper alloy > 15% Zn components in a condensation (external) environment with a Note G in LRA Tables 3.3.2-7, 3.3.2-29, and 3.3.2-32, list loss of material as the aging effect, not reduction in heat transfer.

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 5 of 7 SER COMMENTS Information in the SER Requiring Revision No. Section Page Comment 3.3.2.3.9 3-429 The 1t paragraph of this SER section 3.3.2.3.9 states:

"The staff reviewed LRA Table 3.3.2-9, which summarizes the results of AMR evaluations for the equipment and floor drainage system component groups."

LRA Table 3.3.2-9 is the AMR Results Table for the Containment Vacuum Breaker 18 system. The Equipment Drains Radioactive is LRA Table 3.3.2-21, the Floor Drain System is LRA Table 3.3.2-23, and the Floor Drain Radioactive System is LRA Table 3.3.2-24. Therefore, SER section 3.3.2.3.9, first paragraph, should state containment vacuum breaker component groups instead of equipment and floor drainage system component groups.

3.3.2.3.14 3-434 The 6th paragraph states:

The staff reviewed the applicant's Open-Cycle Cooling Water Program, and its evaluation is documented in SER Section 3.0.3.2.17. The staff reviewed Table IX.C of the GALL Report that states that copper alloys (less than 15 percent zinc) are generally resistant to other aging effects, such as SCC, selective leaching, pitting, and crevice corrosion. However, the components are part of a heat exchanger where the potential for contaminant build up is possible. Thus, 19 the applicant's use of the loss of material aging effect is appropriate. The staff finds that the applicant's proposal to manage aging using the Open-Cycle Cooling Water Program is acceptable because the program uses visual inspections, surveillance activities, and testing of water chemistry in order to detect aging effects that could result in a loss of component intended function due to reduction in heat transfer.

The bolded sentence is out of context with the rest of the paragraph and the discussion in the two preceding SER paragraphs which is focused on the reduction in heat transfer of copper alloy heat exchanger tubes in a condensation (external) environment.

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 6 of 7 SER COMMENTS Information in the SER Requiring Revision No. Section Page Comment 3.3.2.3.18 3-445 This section states:

3.3.2.3.7 3-429 The staff finds that the applicant's proposal to manage aging using the Selective Leaching Inspection Program is acceptable because the program uses visual 20 inspections as well as testing of water chemistry in order to detect aging effects that could result in a loss of component intended function due to loss of material.

The Selective Leaching Inspection Program performs visual and hardness testing for detecting selective leaching. The Selective Leaching Program does not perform water chemistry testing. See LRA section' B.2.47.

3.3.2.3.45 3-469 This section states:

In LRA Table 3.3.2-45, the applicant stated that the copper alloy heat exchanger tubes, strainer (body), and valve body exposed to steam (internal) are being managed for cracking and loss of material by the BWR Water Chemistry and 21 Chemistry Program Effectiveness Inspection Programs. The AMR line items cite Generic Note G.

This statement is incorrect. However, loss of material has been identified as the only aging effect for copper alloy components in steam environment in LRA Table 3.3.2-45 (Ref. Go2-10-094). Cracking was identified for stainless steel heat exchanger tubes and tubing exposed to a steam environment in the HS System.

3.5.2.2.1 3-526 Section Cracking Due to Expansion and Reaction with Aggregate and Increase in Porosity and Permeability Due to Leaching of Calcium Hydroxide. The 1s, paragraph last sentence states "The applicant stated in the LRA that cracking due to expansion and reaction of aggregate, and increase in porosity and permeability due to leaching of 22 calcium hydroxide, are AERMs for the primary containment related concrete."

However, LRA Section 3.5.2.2.1.10, associated with LRA Table 3.5.1, Item 3.5.1-15 states these are not aging effects requiring management for the Primary Containment concrete components. However, the absence of concrete aging effects is confirmed under the Structures Monitoring Program. See LRA section 3.5.2.2.1.10.

j COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Attachment 1 Page 7 of 7 SER COMMENTS Information in the SER Requiring Revision No. Section Page Comment 3.6.2.3.1 3-571 Oxidation subsection, 3 d paragraph. 'The staff finds the applicant' response acceptable., 8 th line

"...because they are used in control circuits that operate at low current..."

From RAI 3.6-3 letter G02-10-139 'With respect to electrical transients and ohmic 23 heating, these fuses are not heavily loaded and do not experience frequent electrical and thermal cycling." During walk downs with the staff (spring of 2010) the fuse panels for the in-scope battery systems were pointed out.

Therefore the sentence should read

"...because they are used in circuits that are not heavily loaded..."

4.1.2.7 4-5 This section states 'The staff noted that SRP-LR Section 3.1.2.2.5 states that RV underclad cracking is only applicable to RVs whose designs include SA-508 Class 2 or 3 forging shells or forging nozzles that were welded to the vessel using a high heat input welding process." However, it is not the weld of the nozzle/forging to the vessel 24 that is of concern; it is the high temperature welding of the cladding to the SA-508 low alloy steel.

This occurs at least twice in this section. Near the bottom of the page it states 'This analysis is not a TLAA in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21 (c)(1) because the applicant's RV design does not include SA-508 Class 2 or 3 forging shells or forging nozzles that were welded to the vessel clad using a high heat input welding process.

4.6.2.2 4-72 The last sentence in the first paragraph says 'The CUF for the main steam penetrations 25 is significantly less than the 1.0 limit." It should say "downcomers" rather than "main steam penetrations." See SER section 4.5.2 Downcomers.

14 split lock washers and a heavy flat washer in place of the standard flat washer; This statement is no longer true because all link bolted connections were replaced with welded connections during R20. This was discussed with the Project Team lead and Letter G02-11-125 dated 7/29/2011 was issued informing the Regulator that all bolted connections used in the in-scope MEB are now welded link connections.

3.0.3.3.2 pg. 3-216 - This section (specifically the UFSAR supplement subsection) does not discuss the 15 220 exception for discontinuing the B4C coupon testing if the in situ testing is scheduled for a frequency of less than or equal to 6 years between tests as was stated in the LRA A.1.2.54, Amendment 29.

3.0.3.3.5 3-229 1 st paragraph in Section 3.0.3.3.5 states:

The applicant stated that the program will consist of inspections of the interior of the exhaust piping for the Division 1, 2, and 3 diesels in the diesel engine exhaust system, including the loop seal drains from the exhaust piping and the drain pans and drain piping associated with air-handling units of the diesel building HVAC systems.

16 However, drain pans and drain piping associated with the AHU of the Diesel Building HVAC systems are managed by the Cooling Units Inspection Program, not the Diesel Systems Inspection Program. LRA Amendment 1 (G02-10-094) revised LRA page B-77 to correct the program description for initial One-Time program.

Also the subsequent Columbia response to change from a one-time to periodic program in LRA Amendment 21 (G02-11-025) does not include drain pans and piping in the program description (LRA Page B-77) of the Diesel Systems Inspection Program,

Page Comment 3.0.3.3.5 3-230 Parameters monitored subsection states:

LRA Section B.2.17, as amended by letter dated January 28, 2011, states that the program will monitor wall thickness or visual evidence of internal surface 17 degradation of the diesel exhaust piping and the drain pans and drain piping as measures of loss of material.

However, Columbia's response in G02-11-025 does not include drain pans and drain piping in the scope Diesel Systems Inspection Program. Refer to LRA Amendment 21, pages B-78 and B-78a.

3.0.3.3.13 3-265 1st paragraph in Section 3.0.3.3.13 states:

'The applicant further stated that the program will verify, by inspections for cracking, that reduction of fracture toughness due to thermal embrittlement requires no 18 additional aging management for small bore Class 1 CASS valve bodies."

However, this statement was deleted from the program description in LRA Amendment 35 (G02-11-098) because Columbia confirmed it has no CASS valve bodies < 4"NPS in the RCPB.

19 3.0.3.3.13 3-263 Detection of Aging effects subsection needs to be updated to Columbia's Amendment

18. Specifically the sample size is done per NUREG-1801, Rev 2.

3.1.2.1.2 3-294 First paragraph states that "LRA Table 3.1.1, Item 3.1.1-55 addresses CASS Class 1 20 valve bodies (less than or equal to 4 in.)". in the Discussion column. However, letter G02-11-098 stated that there are no ASME III Class 1 CASS valves less than 4 inches installed at Columbia. This discussion was removed in LRA Amendment 31.

3.2.2.2.5 3-338 Referring to LRA Section 3.2.2.2.5, the first paragraph in this section states that:

"The applicant addressed the further evaluation criteria of the SRP-LR by stating that elastomer flexible connections subject to hardening and loss of strength are 21 managed by the Flexible Connection Inspection Program, a plant-specific AMP."

However, LRA Section 3.2.2.2.5 refers to the Flexible Connection Inspection Program as a one-time inspection. Deleted this comment because amendment 21 deleted the OTI discussion.

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 5 of 13 SER COMMENTS Changes to Reflect LRA Amendments or RAI Responses No. Section Page Comment 3.3.2.2.10 3-415 Item (7) states:

LRA Section 3.3.2.2.10.7 associated with LRA Table 3.3.1, Item 3.3.1-29, addresses pitting and crevice corrosion in stainless steel piping, piping components, and piping elements exposed to soil. The applicant stated that this line item is not applicable because there are no stainless steel piping, piping components, and piping elements in the auxiliary systems that are exposed to soil. The staff reviewed LRA Sections 2.3.3 and 3.3 and the UFSAR and 22 confirmed that no in-scope stainless steel piping, piping components, and piping elements exposed to soil are present in the auxiliary systems; therefore, the staff finds the applicant's determination acceptable.

In LRA Amendment 1 (G02-10-094), Energy Northwest amended LRA Section 3.3.2.2.10.7 and Table 3.3.1 Item 3.3.1-29 to state:

The Buried Piping Tanks Inspection Program, with enhancement, manages loss of material due to pitting and crevice corrosion and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) for stainless steel piping and piping components buried in soil.

The staff reviewed LRA Sections 2.3.3 and 3.3 and the UFSAR and confirmed that no in-scope copper alloy piping, piping components, and piping elements exposed to treated water are present in the auxiliary systems; therefore, it finds the applicant's determination acceptable In LRA Amendment 1 (G02-10-094), LRA Section 3.3.2.2.11 was amended to state:

23 Loss of material due to pitting, crevice, and galvanic corrosion for copper alloy piping, piping components, or piping elements exposed to treated water is managed by the BWR Water Chemistry Program. The BWR Water Chemistry Program manages aging effects through periodic monitoring and control of contaminants. The Chemistry Program Effectiveness Inspection will provide a verification of the effectiveness of the BWR Water Chemistry Program to manage loss of material due to pitting, crevice, and galvanic corrosion through examination of copper alloy piping and piping components exposed to treated water.

Copper tubing in a treated water environment was added in LRA Amendment 1 to the HCO system (LRA Table 3.3.2-46, pg. 3.3-397k, rows 35 & 36)

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 7 of 13 SER COMMENTS Changes to Reflect LRA Amendments or RAI Responses No. I Section Page [ Comment 3.3.2.3.14 3-433 1 st three paragraphs contain staff's evaluation of aluminum alloy components exposed to condensation. 3rd paragraph states the following:

The staff reviewed the GALL Report, and the cracking aging effect was not identified in combination with aluminum. However, certain aluminum alloys may be subject to SCC if the temperature regime is sufficient. Thus, the applicant's use of the cracking aging effect is appropriate. Aluminum alloys are also subject to loss of material, which was covered by the applicant in another line item. The staff finds that the applicant's proposal to manage aging using the Open-Cycle Cooling Water, External Surfaces Monitoring, and Cooling Units 24 Inspection Programs acceptable because the programs use inspections and surveillance activities as well as chemical testing of the fluid to detect contaminants.

In LRA Amendment 1 (Go2-10-094), aluminum heat exchanger components in a condensation environment with the aging effect of cracking were removed from LRA Tables 3.3.2-14 (row 24), 3.3.2-34 (rows 36 and 45), 3.3.2-36 (row 41), and 3.3.2-37 (row 36) because it was determined that aluminum alloy material not susceptible to cracking. As these were the only subject LRA rows that credited the Open Cycle Cooling Water Program, the Open Cycle Cooling Water Program was amended to eliminate cracking from the AMP scope (see SER pg. 3-188).

COMMENTS ON SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Page 8 of 13 SER COMMENTS Changes to Reflect LRA Amendments or RAI Responses No. I Section I Page [ Comment 3.3.2.3.22 3-451 Update SER: 2nd Paragraph from the bottom states:

In LRA Tables 3.3.2-22 and 3.3.2-32, the applicant stated that the copper alloy (greater than 15 percent zinc) heat exchanger shell, spray nozzle, strainer, and valve bodies exposed to raw water (internal) are being managed for cracking due to SCC by the Diesel Driven Fire Pumps Inspection, Fire Water, and Open-Cycle Cooling Water Programs.

In the LRA there were only two rows that credited either the Diesel-Driven Fire Pumps Inspection or Open-Cycle Cooling Water for managing cracking of copper alloy>15%Zn components in a raw water environment: LRA Table 3.3.2-22 row 19 and LRA Table 3.3.2-32 row 16.

SER page 452 - second paragraph from top states::

The staff finds that the applicant's proposal to manage aging using the Diesel Driven Fire Pumps Inspection program is acceptable because the program uses 25 a one-time visual inspection, wall thickness, and NDE inspection techniques to determine the effect of aging. The Fire Water Program performs periodic inspection and testing of water based fire suppression systems in order to detect aging effects. The Open-Cycle Cooling Water Program uses visual inspections, surveillance activities, and testing of water chemistry to detect aging effects that could result in a loss of component intended function.

The Diesel Driven Fire Pump Inspection is no longer a one-time inspection (Ref.

G02-11-025), it is a plant specific program.

The staff finds that the applicant's proposal to manage aging using the Diesel Driven Fire Pumps Inspection program is acceptable because the program uses a one-time visual inspection, wall thickness, and NDE inspection techniques to determine the effect of aging. The Fire Water Program performs periodic inspection and testing of water based fire suppression systems in order to detect aging effects. The Open-Cycle Cooling Water Program uses visual inspections, surveillance activities, and testing of water chemistry to detect 26 aging effects that could result in a loss of component intended function.

The Diesel Driven Fire Pump Inspection is no longer a one-time inspection (Ref.

G02-11-025), it is a periodic program.

This row was deleted from LRA Table 3.3.2-29 in LRA Amendment 1 (G02-10-094).

Note - the External Surfaces Monitoring Program is still credited for managing cracking in the same material/environment combination in the Containment Nitrogen System (LRA Table 3.3.2-7 rows 15 and 19).

LRA Amendment 1 eliminated cracking as AERM for the subject components and the OCCW AMP no longer manages cracking.

3.3.2.3.36 3-460 In paragraphs 4 through 7, the staff evaluates cracking of stainless steel exposed to condensation. In paragraph 6 it states:

The staff finds the applicant's proposal to manage aging using the External Surfaces Monitoring Program acceptable because cracking in stainless steel components exposed to condensation (external), though unlikely can be 31 detected by periodic visual inspections.

However, LRA Amendment 1 (GO2-10-094) deleted LRA Table 3.3.2-36 row 66 and therefore eliminated cracking as an AERM for stainless steel in condensation environment. For cracking to occur the temperature must be greater than 140F which is not expected for the subject component in the Radwaste Building HVAC System (condensation would not be occurring if the temperature was that high) 3.3.2.3.37 3-461 3rd paragraph in the section states; The staff's evaluation for aluminum alloy heat exchanger fins, tank shell, and end caps exposed to external condensation are being managed for cracking by the Open-Cycle 32 Cooling Water, External Surfaces Monitoring, and Cooling Units Inspection Programs with a Generic Note H is documented in SER Section 3.3.2.3.14.

For every program described in Section 3.0 of the SER, the following statement, or a similar statement, is made in the UFSAR Supplement discussion:

"The staff reviewed this UFSAR supplement description of the program and notes that it 26 conforms to the recommended description for this type of program, as described in SRP-LR Tables 3.2-2, 3.3-2, and 3.4-2."

However, there is no program description in SRP-LR Tables 3.1-2, 3.2-2, 3.3-2, 3.4-2, 3.5-2, or 3.6-2. These tables list the programs rather than described. Program descriptions are in SRP-LR Table 3.0-1.

3.0.1.2 3-3 Last two bullets indicate that for the NUREG-1801 Vol. 2 Item and Table 1 Item that the 27 column was left blank if no match to GALL was found.
