ORDER EA-12-049 MITIGATION STRATEGIES FOR BEYOND DESIGN BASIS EXTERNAL EVENTS

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 1 of 21 1.0 Introduction This enclosure provides Energy Northwests seventh six-month status report of the Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan (OIP). This six-month status report provides an update of milestone accomplishments and open items since the previous submittal.

2.0 Milestone Accomplishments All the Milestones required to support restart from Refueling Outage 22 (implementation outage) were reported as complete in letter GO2-16-037 dated February 24, 2016, with the exception of plant changes directly associated with the reliable hardened containment vent required by Reference 5.

3.0 Milestone Schedule Status The following table is provided as an update to the milestone schedule documented in the initial submittal of the Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan.

Final Mitigation Strategies Program Completed Jun. 2015 Jun. 2015 turned over to Operations GO2-15-124 4.0 Changes to the Compliance Method No additional changes to the method of compliance are being identified.

5.0 Need for Relief/Relaxation and Basis for the Relief/Relaxation The mitigation strategies contained in the initial OIP (Reference 2) were dependent, in part, on the hardened containment wetwell venting capabilities that were to be implemented by NRC Order EA-12-050 (Reference 4) coincident with the implementation of the FLEX strategies. NRC Order EA-13-109 (Reference 5) rescinded Reference 4 requirements and imposed additional requirements for severe accident capable hardened containment venting capabilities. Consistent with EA-13-109 Phase 1 requirements, Energy Northwest plans to complete installation of the hardened containment wetwell vent during the spring 2017 refueling outage. However, full compliance with EA-12-049 was required prior to restarting from the spring 2015 Columbia refueling outage. As requested in Reference 7 and approved in Reference 8, full compliance with NRC Order EA-12-049 was relaxed until the completion of the spring 2017 refueling outage to allow sufficient time to implement a severe accident capable hardened containment wetwell vent.

No additional relief or relaxation has been identified. Additionally, the need for an amendment request to support pending modifications has not been identified.

6.0 Open Items from Overall Integrated Plan The following table provides a summary and status of the open items documented in the initial submittal of the Mitigation Strategies OIP (Reference 2), Revision 1 of the Mitigation Strategies OIP contained in the second six-month status update (Reference 9), and responses to NRC Audit Questions regarding the mitigation strategies. This section shows that the activities required to meet NRC Order EA-12-049 are complete.

The flooding hazard analysis and hardened containment vent items remain open.

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 4 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status Hazards:

OI-FLEX FLEX equipment will be stored in structures capable of withstanding the hazards applicable to Columbia described above. These structures are generally referred to as FLEX Buildings. Two FLEX buildings or structures will be utilized to provide diverse storage locations that can maintain an Completed appropriate environment for the stored equipment and provide GO2-15-034 generator backed power as necessary. The construction of the storage facilities is in progress. The list of equipment to be stored therein is being developed, including any vehicles required to move the equipment. The storage of equipment within buildings has been specified to limit seismic interactions.

OI-FLEX The potential failure of a circulating water (CW) pipe, coincident with the extended loss of alternating current (ac)

Completed power (ELAP), will be considered to ensure that the FLEX GO2-14-031 storage areas are located such that deployment of at least one set of portable equipment can be accomplished.

OI-FLEX Equipment stored outside will be evaluated for Completed seismic interactions, cold weather operation and ashfall. GO2-15-034 OI-FLEX The locations and design of equipment connection points are being developed and will ensure at least one connection point for the FLEX equipment requires access only Completed through seismically robust structures including both the GO2-15-034 connection point and any areas that plant personnel will have to access.

OI-FLEX The procedural interface in NEI 12-06 Section Completed 5.3.3.1 (alternate instrument readouts) will be developed once the GO2-15-034 critical monitoring parameters are identified.

OI-FLEX Evaluation of FLEX equipment will be completed to ensure proper functioning under the design basis temperatures Completed and ashfall conditions. This includes manual actions to transport GO2-15-124 and set up the equipment.

OI-FLEX Actions will be developed to ensure the continued availability of the water inventory sources from the SW ponds in cold weather. In addition, actions will be developed to thaw any Completed frozen service water piping that will be required in Phase 3. The GO2-15-034 plan to remove ice and snow from equipment deployment routes is under evaluation and actions will be developed as needed.

Assumptions:

(Some Assumptions may be impacted by the completion of activities developed for Hardened Vents)

OI-FLEX The sequence of events developed to address the ELAP and loss of the ultimate heatsink (LUHS) will take into Completed account sources of expected reactor coolant inventory loss. (NRC GO2-14-131 Audit Question 15)

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 5 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status OI-FLEX Modular Accident Analysis Program (MAAP) analysis will be performed. The resulting time line will establish Completed the necessary actions that will be taken to protect both the core GO2-14-131 and containment.

OI-FLEX GOTHIC calculations will evaluate the effects of a loss of heating, venting and air conditioning (HVAC) on the plant response. An evaluation of the GOTHIC results on equipment qualification will be performed. Areas of the plant requiring Completed access by personnel (including activities identified in the GO2-14-131 Appendix 1 Timeline) will be evaluated to ensure conditions will support the actions. (This OI has been changed to explicitly include activities identified in the Timeline for completeness.)

(NRC Audit Questions 23, 24, 29, 43 and 44)

OI-FLEX The design of the permanent structures, systems, and components (SSCs) used to mitigate the ELAP and LUHS Completed will be verified to be robust with respect to seismic events, floods, GO2-15-034 and high winds.

Sequence of Events:

OI-FLEX The Station Blackout (SBO)/ELAP procedure will require all load shed actions to be completed in 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />. These Completed load shed actions will be validated to ensure they can be GO2-14-131 completed within this time limit. (This OI has been changed because the existing 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> procedural limit will be maintained.)

OI-FLEX A plant modification will be performed to address Completed the potential for flooding of the RCIC room from the barometric GO2-15-034 condenser.

OI-FLEX It is estimated to take 15 minutes to complete the additional load shedding necessary for an ELAP. The 15 minute duration for shedding the additional loads will be validated. (This Deleted OI has been deleted because the ELAP load shed will be GO2-14-131 combined with the SBO load shed and performed at the start of the event.)

OI-FLEX The maximum time needed for connection of a Completed 480V FLEX generator to power the Division 1 batteries will be GO2-15-034 determined.

Programmatic:

OI-FLEX Portable FLEX equipment will be initially tested or Completed otherwise evaluated to ensure acceptable performance. GO2-15-124 OI-FLEX The maintenance and testing program for FLEX Completed equipment will be documented in the next OIP update following GO2-15-124 finalization of the program.

OI-FLEX Unavailability of equipment and applicable connections that directly perform a FLEX mitigation strategy for Completed core, containment, and spent fuel pool (SFP) will be managed in GO2-15-124 accordance with NEI 12-06.

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 6 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status OI-FLEX Procedures will ensure that changes to the plant design, physical plant layout, roads, buildings, and structures Completed used for the storage of portable FLEX equipment will not GO2-15-124 adversely impact the approved FLEX strategy.

OI-FLEX Changes to FLEX strategies will be assessed using Completed the change process provided in NEI 12-06 Section 11.8. GO2-15-124 OI-FLEX Periodic training will be provided to site emergency response leaders on Beyond Design Basis emergency response Completed strategies and implementing guidelines. (This OI has been GO2-15-034 changed to reflect the requirement for periodic training stated in NEI 12-06 paragraph 11.6.2)

OI-FLEX Personnel assigned to direct execution of the mitigation strategies for Beyond Design Basis events will receive Completed the necessary training to ensure familiarity with the associated GO2-15-034 tasks.

OI-FLEX Establish staging area for the receipt of offsite Completed resources. GO2-14-131 OI-FLEX Establish site-specific Strategic Alliance for FLEX Emergency Response (SAFER) Response Plan for Columbia with the National SAFER Response Center (NSRC) to define and Completed coordinate NSRC and plant actions in response to events. (This GO2-15-034 OI has been changed to use the formal designation of the playbook.)

OI-FLEX Energy Northwest will perform an evaluation of the acceptability of the Tri-Cities Airport and the Yakima Municipal Airport as SAFER Staging Areas. (This OI has been added to Completed reflect the selection of the Tri Cities and Yakima Airports.) As a GO2-14-131 result of the evaluation, the Seattle and Portland airports were chosen as the SAFER staging areas.

Phase 1 Core Cooling:

(Some Mitigation Strategies related to Phase 1 Core Cooling may be impacted by the completion of activities developed for Hardened Vents)

OI-FLEX Procedure guidance will be developed to support Completed implementation of Phase 1 Core Cooling strategies as described GO2-15-124 in the Overall Integrated Plan.

OI-FLEX Strategies for maintaining core cooling during an ELAP and LUHS event during shutdown and refueling will be developed, including the necessary actions and equipment Completed required during Phases 1, 2, and 3. Energy Northwest will GO2-15-124 incorporate the supplemental guidance provided in the NEI position paper entitled Shutdown / Refueling Modes to enhance the shutdown risk process and procedures.

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 7 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status OI-FLEX System modifications and evaluations will be See Items a - e completed to support implementation of Phase 1 Core Cooling below strategies as described in the Overall Integrated Plan.

a. A reliable containment hardened vent system will be installed to vent heat from the reactor pressure vessel Completed (RPV)/containment to the atmosphere. Details of this GO2-14-107 design will be provided in the Hardened Vent Overall GO2-14-175 Integrated Plan required by NRC Order EA-13-109.
b. Analyses of reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) operation at elevated temperatures have been undertaken by General Electric Hitachi (GEH) and Energy Northwest to identify changes to the RCIC pump or turbine necessary to Completed ensure reliable operation at elevated temperatures. GO2-15-124 Energy Northwest will evaluate potential actions including changes to procedures or maintenance practices or implementation of modifications.
c. An assessment of RCIC system piping, hangers and supports will be conducted at the elevated temperatures to Completed ensure satisfactory performance. If needed, modifications GO2-15-124 will be performed.
d. An evaluation of the feasibility of redesigning or repowering the barometric condensers level switch will be Completed performed to determine if it can remain functional during GO2-14-031 an ELAP to provide automatic control of RCIC-P-4.
e. MAAP cases using the suppression pool will be re-run using finalized design parameters of the containment hardened vent. The results will be used to define Completed additional actions. (See Open Item OI-FLEX-09). (This OI GO2-14-131 has been changed because the suppression pool will be the credited water source for initial RCIC operation.)

OI-FLEX GOTHIC analyses will be confirmed, or revised, to bound the design of the hardened containment vent after the design is finalized. (This OI has been added to assure that the subject analyses reflect the design required by EA-13-109.)

Response

Calculation ME-02-13-03 R1 results show that the hardened containment vent is able to remove the required 1% of 4079 Completed.

megawatts thermal (MWt) with a 45 psig wetwell pressure. This would include the currently proposed amendment request for a power uprate of 1.66%, submitted on June 28, 2016. This amendment request would increase the rated thermal power from the current licensed thermal power of 3486 MWt to 3544 MWt and remains bounded by this analysis which ensures that the HCVS can remove the amount of energy required by EA-13-109.

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 8 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status Phase 1 Containment:

(Some Mitigation Strategies Open Items not originally identified in the Overall Integrated Plan related to Phase 1 Containment have been created due to the potential impact of the schedule for activities developed for Phase 1 & 2 Hardened Vents)

OI-FLEX-27 (continued)

f. It is anticipated that temporary interim strategies will be developed for venting the containment until the completion Deleted of containment hardened vent activities. (This OI has been GO2-14-031 deleted because an interim venting strategy will not be credited for compliance with EA-12-049.)
g. It is anticipated that revisions to procedures will be developed to implement the temporary interim strategies for venting the containment until the completion of Deleted containment hardened vent activities. (This OI has been GO2-14-031 deleted because an interim venting strategy will not be credited for compliance with EA-12-049.)

Phase 2 Core Cooling:

OI-FLEX Procedure guidance will be developed to support Completed implementation of Phase 2 Core Cooling strategies as described GO2-15-124 in the Overall Integrated Plan.

OI-FLEX System modifications and evaluations will be completed to support implementation of Phase 2 Core Cooling See items a - d strategies as described in the Overall Integrated Plan. below

a. Alternate connection points will be provided to connect Completed FLEX generators to the electrical distribution system. GO2-15-124
b. An evaluation of running underground cabling from the FLEX Building(s) to the existing electrical connection Completed points outside the Diesel Generator Building will be GO2-14-131 performed.
c. DG4 or DG5 will have the capability of providing power to Division 1 and Division 2. (This OI has been changed to Completed eliminate duplication of OI-FLEX-29.b and to reflect the GO2-14-131 planned capability of the FLEX DGs)
d. Provisions will be made to allow the installation of hoses through fence(s). (This OI has been changed to reflect a Completed change in the strategy for hose routing with respect to GO2-14-131 fences.)

OI-FLEX An evaluation will be completed to ensure a diverse supply of fuel is available, maintained and diverse means are Completed provided for refueling the portable equipment. GO2-15-034

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 9 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status OI-FLEX Strategies for mitigating an ELAP and LUHS event during cold shutdown and refueling will be developed as Completed described in the Overall Integrated Plan. GO2-15-124 OI-FLEX An analysis will be performed to confirm that the Phase 2 configurations described in the OIP for suppression pool make-up can provide adequate flow through the spray header. Deleted (This OI has been deleted as the suppression pool make-up will GO2-14-131 not use the spray nozzles as part of the make-up flow path.)

OI-FLEX A wind and seismic evaluation in accordance with the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 7-10 Building Risk Category IV will be performed on the above ground alternate Completed gasoline tank located outside the protected area. (This OI has GO2-15-034 been added to track completion of the subject evaluation.)

Phase 3 Core Cooling:

OI-FLEX Energy Northwest will establish a site-specific Completed SAFER Response Plan for Columbia with the NSRC to define GO2-15-034 and coordinate NSRC and plant actions in response to events.

OI-FLEX Modifications and evaluations will be completed to See Items a - b support implementation of Phase 3 Core Cooling strategies as below described in the Overall Integrated Plan.

a. Two separate connection points will be installed to provide Completed critical bus power from a 4160-V ac FLEX generator (From GO2-15-034 the NSRC).
b. A strategy for connecting the large FLEX pump to the service water (SW) system will be developed. SW system Completed piping will be modified if needed to provide connection GO2-15-034 points.

OI-FLEX The spray pond temperature rise while operating in the shutdown cooling mode without sprays will be determined. Completed (This OI has been added to determine if cooling tower make-up GO2-14-131 (TMU) pump operation will be needed.)

Phase 1 SFP Cooling:

Procedure guidance will be developed to support implementation of Phase 1 SFP Cooling strategies. (As discussed in the Overall Integrated Plan, the SFP does not require any action in Phase 1.

The inventory of water in the pool is generally maintained greater Deleted than or equal to 22 feet above the top of irradiated fuel GO2-14-031 assemblies stored in the fuel pool. The heat up of the pool water will remove heat from the stored fuel during Phase 1, therefore this open item can be Deleted)

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 10 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status OI-FLEX Modifications will be completed to support implementation of Phase 1 SFP Cooling strategies.

Phase 1 relies on the use of installed plant equipment. As stated in GO2-14-031, the SFP does not require any action in Phase 1.

The inventory of water in the SFP is generally maintained greater Completed than or equal to 22 feet above the top of irradiated fuel GO2-15-124 assemblies stored in the fuel pool. The heat up of the pool water will remove heat from the stored fuel during Phase 1. There are no modifications required for SFP cooling strategies. The SFPLI modification required by EA-12-051 has been completed as reported in letter GO2-15-120.

Phase 2 SFP Cooling:

OI-FLEX Procedure guidance will be developed to support implementation of Phase 2 SFP Cooling strategies as described Completed in the OIP. (This OI has been added to track the procedure GO2-15-124 development needed to support Phase 2 SFP Cooling.)

OI-FLEX The time that make-up to the SFP must be initiated after an ELAP will be determined for a full core off-load. Completed GO2-14-131 Phase 3 SFP Cooling:

OI-FLEX Procedure guidance will be developed to support Completed implementation of Phase 3 SFP Cooling strategies. GO2-15-124 OI-FLEX Evaluations will be completed to support implementation of Phase 3 SFP Cooling strategies.

a. An evaluation of the ability of the 4160-V ac FLEX generator (from the NSRC) to repower a Fuel Pool Cooling (FPC) pump Completed will be completed. An evaluation of the ability of the large- GO2-14-131 capacity FLEX pump (from the NSRC) to provide cooling to the FPC heat exchanger will be completed.

Phase 1 Safety Support Functions:

OI-FLEX Procedure guidance will be developed to support Completed implementation of Phase 1 Safety Function Support strategies as GO2-15-034 described in the Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan.

OI-FLEX System modifications will be completed to support implementation of Phase 1 Safety Function Support strategies as described in the Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan.

a. GOTHIC modeling is ongoing in support of the ELAP that will Completed identify heat loads in the key locations between the buildings.

GO2-15-034 This analysis will then define additional actions that may be required using portable equipment, or any modifications to support operation of installed equipment during Phase 1.

No system modifications were required.

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 11 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status Phase 3 Safety Support Functions:

OI-FLEX An evaluation of the conditions of the residual heat removal (RHR) pump rooms under an ELAP event will be Completed completed to determine if additional actions are needed to GO2-14-131 remove heat from the rooms prior to and during operation of the pump.

Appendix 1 - Sequence of Events Timeline:

OI-FLEX Modification to the sequence of events timeline will Completed be provided in future status update reports as analyses, GO2-15-034 strategies and evaluations are completed.

Appendix 2 - Milestone Schedule:

None - Revisions to the milestone schedule are identified in N/A Section 2 of this and subsequent future status update reports.

Appendix 3 - Conceptual Sketches:

OI-FLEX Updated sketches will be provided in future status Completed reports if needed to reflect changes. GO2-14-131 NRC Audit Question Responses:

OI-FLEX NEI 12-06, Section 5.3.3 Consideration 2:

Consideration should be given to the impacts from large internal flooding sources that are not seismically robust and do not Completed require ac power (e.g., gravity drainage from lake or cooling GO2-14-131 basins for non-safety-related cooling water systems, will be addressed in future six-month updates. (Response to NRC Audit Question 02)

OI-FLEX The flooding hazards analysis will provide information about site water level associated with a probable maximum precipitation (PMP) event and a local intense precipitation (LIP) event. These water levels will be compared to elevations for the FLEX buildings as well as the deployment routes for the equipment. A LiDAR survey of the site was performed and a topographic plan of the site has been generated Started to assist in this evaluation. The flooding analysis is currently in progress. The results will be used to provide a response to this question in a future OIP update. (Response to NRC Audit Question 03) (This OI has been changed because the flooding analysis remains in progress and the OI was not closed in the February 2014 update.)

OI-FLEX A future update to the OIP will address the applicability to Columbia of each of the nine considerations in NEI 12-06 Section 6.2.3.2, Deployment of FLEX Equipment.

Started (Response to NRC Audit Question 04) (This OI has been changed because the flooding analysis remains in progress and the OI will be closed in a future update.)

GO2-16-125 Enclosure Page 12 of 21 Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan Open Items List Status OI-FLEX The flooding analysis will be used to determine if any of the external flooding procedures should be changed. Not Started (Response to NRC Audit Question 04)

OI-FLEX The NRC has endorsed generic resolutions of concerns regarding use of the MAAP code in mitigation strategies. Energy Northwest will assess the applicability of the generic resolutions to Columbia. (Response to NRC Audit Question 09) Columbia has completed an assessment of the generic resolution of the issues related to use of MAAP4 for our ELAP work. The assessment focused on the limitations imposed by the NRC on their acceptance of the use of MAAP4 for timeline Completed purposes as stated in the NRC letter dated October 3, 2013, from GO2-14-131 Jack R. Davis (NRC) to Joseph E. Pollock (NEI). Columbia has used MAAP4 for the determination of wetwell vent timing, fuel pool cooling/make-up timing, and for RCIC operability assessments based on calculated suppression pool temperature. All the limitations in the NRC letter have been addressed in the assessment which is available for review upon request.

OI-FLEX A review of the current fire protection ring header shows that it was designed to Seismic Category II standards outside Seismic Category I structures. Except for minor portions, Completed it is buried in engineered fill and is largely protected from the GO2-14-031 effects of high winds and missiles. While use of the fire protection ring header is an operational convenience, its availability is not credited (Response to NRC Audit Question 13).

OI-FLEX The NRC has endorsed a generic resolution of concerns regarding use of the MAAP code in mitigation Completed strategies.
