Analysis of Proposed Implementation Date Change for License Amendments 234 and 229 cc: Regional Administrator, Region II, USNRC Senior Resident Inspector, USNRC, Turkey Point Nuclear Plant USNRC Project Manager for Turkey Point Mr. William Passetti, Florida Department of Health
Attachment Florida Power and Light Company Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 License Amendment Request No. 201 Florida Power & Light Company Letter L-2009-200 Application to Revise the Implementation Date for Units 3 and 4 License Amendments 234 and 229, Respectively Analysis of Proposed Implementation Date Change
Florida Power and Light Company L-2009-200 License Amendment Request No. 201 Application to Revise Implementation Date for License Amendments 234 and 229 Page 1 of 5 Attachment 1.0 Description of Proposed Change Florida Power and Light Company (FPL) requests approval of a license amendment to delay the date specified in License Amendments 234 and 229 for the implementation of the Boraflex Remedy in the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 spent fuel pools (SFP) respectively.
2.0 Proposed Change FPL requests the NRC to issue license amendments for Turkey Point Nuclear Plant Units 3 and 4 to permit a delay in the implementation of the SFP storage rack Boraflex Remedy as provided by License Amendments 234 and 229 for Units 3 and 4 respectively.
The current implementation date specified in United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) letter of July 17, 2007, approving, License Amendments 234 and 229 for Turkey Point Nuclear Plant Units 3 and 4, respectively is:
"This license amendment is effective as of its date of issuance and shall be implemented prior to the end of Turkey Point Unit 4 Cycle 24."
FPL is requesting that the implementation date be revised to the following:
"This license amendment is effective as of its date of issuance and shall be implemented by no later than September 30, 2012."
3.0 Background FPL requested NRC approval, via letter L-2005-247 dated January 27, 2006, to implement a Boraflex Remedy in the Units 3 and 4 SFPs through the use of Metamic inserts along with Rod Cluster Control Assemblies (RCCAs) and enhanced administrative controls related to positioning of fuel assemblies within the SFP storage racks. The license amendments, incorporating both welded and formed Metamic inserts and designs combining these two features, were approved by the NRC July 17, 2007 with a scheduled implementation due date prior to the end of Unit 4 Cycle 24. Currently, Unit 4 Cycle 24 is scheduled to end in October 2009.
While every effort has been (and is continuing to be) made to implement the Boraflex Remedy by the scheduled implementation date, our vendor's inability to successfully
Florida Power and Light Company L-2009-200 License Amendment Request No. 201 Application to Revise Implementation Date for License Amendments 234 and 229 Page 2 of 5 Attachment fabricate the Metamic inserts to the design requirements for insertion has resulted in FPL's inability to implement the amendments by the scheduled date.
4.0 Regulatory Analysis In License Amendments 234 and 229 FPL obtained NRC approval to implement a Boraflex Remedy in the Units 3 and 4 SFPs through the use of Metamic inserts along with Rod Cluster Control Assemblies (RCCAs) and enhanced administrative controls related to positioning of fuel assemblies within the SFP storage racks. The license amendments, incorporating both welded and formed Metamic inserts and designs combining these two features, was approved by the NRC July 17, 2007 with a scheduled implementation due date prior to the end of Unit 4 Cycle 24. Currently, Unit 4 Cycle 24 is scheduled to end in October 2009.
While every effort has been (and is continuing to be) made to implement the Boraflex Remedy by the scheduled implementation date, our vendor's inability to successfully fabricate the Metamic inserts to the design requirements for insertion has resulted in FPL's inability to implement the amendments by the scheduled date. Therefore, we will continue to work to implement the approved amendments until both SFPs are configured in accordance with the approved amendments but no later than September 30, 2012. No other changes are requested by FPL. The September 2012 date reflects the possibility that use of Metamico inserts may be limited and that reliance on transfer of spent fuel to dry storage, beyond that anticipated when FPL initiated the dry storage project, may be needed to ensure implementation.
5.0 Technical Analysis During this extension period, FPL will continue to rely on the current Turkey Point licensing basis, including the presence of Boraflex, the continuation of existing administrative controls, and our currently approved monitoring and surveillance program until such time that the Boraflex Remedy license amendments are fully implemented.
Florida Power and Light Company L-2009-200 License Amendment Request No. 201 Application to Revise Implementation Date for License Amendments 234 and 229 Page 3 of 5 Attachment 6.0 Determination of No Significant Hazards Consideration FPL has evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendments by focusing on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, Issuance of Amendment, as discussed below:
- 1. Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?
Response: No.
The proposed license amendments extend the implementation period specified in License Amendments 234 and 229. The delay will allow FPL to continue to work with our vendor to successfully fabricate the Metamic inserts to the design requirements for insertion until both SFPs are configured in accordance with the previously approved Boraflex Remedy license amendments.
During this extension period, FPL will continue to rely on the current Turkey Point licensing basis, including the presence of Boraflex, the continuation of existing administrative controls, and our currently approved monitoring and surveillance program until such time that the Boraflex Remedy license amendments are fully implemented. These measures will continue to ensure required margins to criticality are maintained such that the consequences of an accident are not increased. As the delay in implementation of the Boraflex Remedy does not affect any accident initiation sequences, the probability of occurrence on an accident in the SFPs is not increased by delay in implementation of License Amendment Nos. 234 and 229.
Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
- 2. Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated?
Response: No.
The proposed license amendments extend the implementation period specified in License Amendments 234 and 229.. The delay will allow FPL to continue to work with our vendor to successfully fabricate the Metamic inserts to the design requirements for insertion until both SFPs are configured in accordance with the previously approved Boraflex Remedy license amendments.
Florida Power and Light Company L-2009-200 License Amendment Request No. 201 Application to Revise Implementation Date for License Amendments 234 and 229 Page 4 of 5 Attachment During this extension period, FPL will continue to rely on the current Turkey Point licensing basis, including the presence of Boraflex, the continuation of existing administrative controls, and our currently approved monitoring and surveillance program until such time that the Boraflex Remedy license amendments are fully implemented. As no unapproved physical changes to the spent fuel storage cells are involved with this delay in implementation of the Boraflex Remedy, no new failure modes are created by an extended implementation date. Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.
- 3. Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety?
Response: No.
The proposed license amendments extend the implementation period specified in License Amendments 234 and 229. The delay will allow FPL to continue to work with our vendor to successfully fabricate the Metamic inserts to the design requirements for insertion until both SFPs are configured in accordance with the previously approved Boraflex Remedy license amendments.
During this extension period, FPL will continue to rely on the current Turkey Point licensing basis, including the presence of Boraflex, the continuation of existing administrative controls, and our currently approved monitoring and surveillance program until such time that the Boraflex Remedy license amendments are fully implemented. These measures will continue to ensure required margins to criticality are maintained. As no unapproved physical changes to the spent fuel storage cells are involved with this delay in implementation of the Boraflex Remedy and since Boraflex degradation will continue to be closely monitored to ensure acceptable margins to criticality are maintained, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
Based on the above, FPL concludes that the proposed amendment presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and, accordingly, a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified.
7.0 Environmental Considerations The proposed amendments are administrative in nature and do not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant
Florida Power and Light Company L-2009-200 License Amendment Request No. 201 Application to Revise Implementation Date for License Amendments 234 and 229 Page 5 of 5 Attachment increase in the amounts of any effluent that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed amendments meet the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed amendments.
