St. Lucie Nuclear Plant L-2017-116 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Enclosure Page 2 of 25 Enclosure In an email memorandum dated June 1, 2017, the Technical Specifications Branch (STSB) of the NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation requested in RAI-MF9119/MF9120-STSB-01, additional information regarding FPLs License Amendment Request (LAR) dated January 23, 2017 for St. Lucie Unit 1 and St.

Lucie Unit 2. FPLs response follows:

RAI-MF9119/MF9120-STSB-01 By letter dated January 23, 2017, (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)

Accession No. ML17025A399), Florida Power & Light (FPL), submitted a license amendment request (LAR) for St. Lucie Units 1 and 2. The LAR proposes to modify the Unit 1 and Unit 2 Technical Specifications by limiting the MODE of applicability for the Reactor Protection System, Startup and Operating Rate of Change of Power - High, functional unit trip. Additionally, the proposed license amendments add new Limiting Conditions of Operation (LCO) 3.0.5 and relatedly modifies LCO 3.0.2, to provide for placing inoperable equipment under administrative control for the purpose of conducting testing required to demonstrate OPERABILITY. The staff has identified areas where additional information is needed to complete the review.

The licensees proposed new TS 3.0.5 states the following:

Equipment removed from service or declared inoperable to comply with ACTION(s) may be returned to service under administrative control solely to perform testing required to demonstrate its OPERABILITY or the OPERABILITY of other equipment. This is an exception to LCO 3.0.2 for the system returned to service under administrative control to perform the testing required to demonstrate OPERABILITY.

The licensees proposed revised TS LCO 3.0.2 states:

Upon discovery of a failure to meet an LCO, the Required ACTION(s) of the associated conditions shall be met, except as provided in LCO 3.0.5. lf the LCO is met or is no longer applicable prior to expiration of the specified time interval(s), completion of the Required ACTION(s) is not required, unless otherwise stated.

The current Units 1 & 2 TS LCO 3.0.1 states:

Compliance with the Limiting Conditions for Operations (LCO) contained in the succeeding specifications is required during OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions specified therein; except that upon failure to meet the Limiting Conditions for Operation, the associated ACTION requirements shall be met.

The proposed new TS LCO 3.0.5 is an exception to proposed revised LCO 3.0.2 as clearly addressed in the licensees license amendment request. However, the proposed new TS LCO 3.0.5 is also an exception to the second premise of the current LCO 3.0.1 which states: ..except that upon failure to meet the Limiting Conditions for Operation, the associated ACTION requirements shall be met.

Please provide the following:

1. A revised TS LCO 3.0.1 reflecting new LCO 3.0.5 as an exception to its second premise.
2. A revised new TS LCO 3.0.5 reflecting the second premise as an exception to LCO 3.0.1.

St. Lucie Nuclear Plant L-2017-116 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Enclosure Page 3 of 25 FPL Response As the NRC notes in RAI-MF9119/MF9120-STSB-01 above, the second premise of TS LCO 3.0.1 states that the associated ACTION requirements shall be met upon failure to meet the Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO). As such, FPL acknowledges that modifying TS LCO 3.0.1 to specify that the proposed TS LCO 3.0.5 is an exception to TS LCO 3.0.1 is appropriate.

However, FPL notes that the second premise of TS LCO 3.0.1 is redundant with the proposed change to TS LCO 3.0.2 specified in Reference 1 (below), which states that upon discovery of a failure to meet an LCO, the required ACTION(s) of the associated conditions shall be met except as provided in TS LCO 3.0.5. Hence, modifying TS LCO 3.0.1 similarly would further complicate TS LCO 3.0.1 with requirements and exceptions that are repeated in TS LCO 3.0.2.

FPL proposes instead to replace TS LCO 3.0.1 with the analogous LCO 3.0.1 provided in NUREG 1432, Standard Technical Specifications - Combustion Engineering Plants (Reference 2). Replacing TS LCO 3.0.1 with the LCO 3.0.1 provided in NUREG 1432 removes the redundancy with TS LCO 3.0.2 and thereby removes the need for TS LCO 3.0.1 to specify the proposed TS LCO 3.0.5 exception. The proposed change to TS LCO 3.0.1 will apply to the St.

Lucie Unit 1 and the St. Lucie Unit 2 TS. However, unlike the LCO 3.0.1 provided in NUREG 1432, the proposed change to TS LCO 3.0.1 will not specify exceptions to NUREG 1432 LCO(s) 3.0.7, 3.0.8, and 3.0.9 since the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS do not contain these LCO(s).

Attachment 1 to this enclosure provides the existing St. Lucie Unit 1 TS pages marked up to show the proposed changes. Attachment 2 to this enclosure provides the existing St. Lucie Unit 2 TS pages marked up to show the proposed changes. Attachment 3 provides the St. Lucie Unit 1 TS pages retyped (clean copy) with revision bars to identify the proposed changes. Attachment 4 provides the St. Lucie Unit 2 TS pages retyped (clean copy) with revision bars to identify the proposed changes. Attachment 5 provides the existing St. Lucie Unit 1 TS Bases pages marked up to show the proposed changes. Attachment 6 provides the St. Lucie Unit 2 TS Bases marked up pages. The TS marked up pages, retyped (clean copy) TS pages and TS Bases marked up pages supersede the corresponding pages provided in Reference 1. The TS Bases changes are provided for information only and will be incorporated in accordance with the TS Bases Control Program upon implementation of the approved amendments.

The specifications of this section establish tbe general requirements applicable to Limiting Conditions fo Operation. 'These requirements are based on the requirements for Limiti~~ Conditions for Operation stated in the Code of Federal Regulations, 10 ~FR 50.36(c)(2):

"Limiting conditions foro Jeration are the lowest functional capability or performance levels of eq uipment required for safe operation of the facility.

Add first

  • conformance to the ACTION requirements provides an acceptable level of paragraph from safety for unlimited continued operation as long as the ACTION requirements old LCO 3.0.2 continue to be met. The second type of ACTION requirement specifies a time (below) limit in which conformance to the conditions of the Limiting Condition for Operation must be met. This time limit is the allowable outage time to restore an inoperable system or component to OPERABLE status or for restoring parameters within specified 'limits. If these actions are not completed within the allowable outage time limits, a shutdown is required to place the facility in a MODE or cond ition in wh ich the specification no longer applies. It is not intended that the shutdown ACTION requirements .be used as an operational convenience which permits (routine) voluntary removal of a system(s) or component(s) from service in lieu of other alternatives that would not result in redundant systems or components being inoperable.

BASES (continued) 3.0.1 (continued)

The specified time limits of the ACTION reqt~irements are applicable from the point in time it is identified that a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met.

The time limits of the ACTION requirements are also applicable when a system or component is removed from service forsurveillance testing or ACTION investigation of operational problems. Individual-specifications may include a cified time limit for the completion of a Surveillance Requirement when equip tis removed from service. In this case, the allowable outage time Reclocate limits of th requirements are applicable when this limit expires if the paragraph t o surveillance has not been completed. When a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements, the plant may have entered a MODE in become 1st which a new specification becomes applicable. In this case, the time limits of paragraph of new the ACTION requirements would apply from the point in time that the new LCO 3.0.2 ab ve specification becomes applicable if the requirements of the Limiting Condition for Operation are not met.

This specification establishes that noncompliance with a specification exists when the requirements of the Limiting Condition for Operation are not met an the associated ACTION requirE!ments have not been implemented within the specified time interval. The purpose of this specification is to clarify that (1) implementation of the ACTION requirements within the specified time interva l constitutes compliance with a specification and (2) completion of the remedial measures of the ACTION requirements is not required when Add as last compliance with a Limiting Condition for Operation is restored within the time interval specified in the associated ACTION requirements.

paragraph of LCO 3.0.2 LCO 3.0.5 provides for an exception to LCO 3.0.2 fo r the limited purpose of performing required testing to demonstrate either the OPERABILITY of equipment being returned to service or the OPERABILITY of other equipment.

Refer to the LCO 3.0.5 discussion for use.

Upon entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability vvit~1 t~1e LCO not met, LCO 3.0.1 and LCO 3.0.2 require entry into the applicable Conditions and Required Actions until the Condition is resot1red, until the LCO is met, or until the unit is not vl'ithin the .A.pplicability of the Technical Specification .

Surveillances do not have to be performed to be performed on the associated inoperable equipment (or on variables outside the specified limits), as permitted by SR 4:0.4 Therefore, utilizing LCO 3.0.4 is not a violation ofSR 4.0 .1 or SR 4.0.4 .for any Surveillances that have not been performed on inoperable

The sole purpose of this Specification is to p.r.o.Y.Lcte~xce p:tion to LCO 3.0.2 (fL9. to not comQ)y with the aQplicable Required Action(s)) to allow the performance of required testing to demonstrate either:

1. The OPERABILITY of the equipment being returned to service or,
2. The OPERABILITY of other equipment.

The administrative controls ensure the time the equipment is returned to service in conflict with the requirements of the ACTIONS is limited to the time absolutely necessary to perform the required testing to demonstrate OPERABILITY. This Specification does ndt provide time to perform any other preventive or corrective maintenance .

LCO 3.0 .5 speCifically states that equipment removed from service or declared inoperable to comply with ACTION(s) may be returned to service under administrative control solely to perform testing required to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the equipment or that of other equipment. LCO 3.0.5 is limited to plant conditions where simultaneous testing and compliance with the required ACTION (s) is not possible. Hence LCO 3 .0 .5 may only be used if it is the only alternative to performing the required testing , regardless of whether the other alternatives present higher risk to the plant.

An example of demonstrating the OPERABILITY of equipment being returned to service is reopening a containment isolation valve that has been closed to comply with required ACTION{s) and must be reopened to perform the required testing .

An example of demonstrating the OPERABILITY of other equipment is taking an inoperable channel or trip system out of the tripped condition to prevent the trip function from occurring during the performance of required testing on another channel in the other trip system A similar example of demonstrating the OPERABILITY of other equipment is taking an inoperable channel or trip system out of the tripped condition to permit the logic to function and indicate the appropriate response dUring the performance of required testing on another channel in the same trip system.
