Attachment L-23-053 2022 Annual 10 CFR 50.46 Report of Changes to or Errors in Emergency Core Cooling System Evaluation Models Page 1 of 2 Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, Section 50.46(a)(3) states that each holder of an operating license shall report to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), at least annually, each change to or error in an acceptable emergency core cooling system (ECCS) evaluation model (EM), or in the application of such a model, that affects the calculation of peak cladding temperature (PCT). The nature of the change or error and its estimated effect on the limiting ECCS analysis is to be included in the report.

During the 2022 calendar year, there were no changes or errors in the evaluation model for the current reporting period currently being used to support the design basis at BVPS-1 and BVPS-2.

Therefore, a net PCT change of 0°F (analyzed) from the end of 2021 to the end of 2022 is reported for the Small Break LOCA and Large Break LOCA analyses.

The estimated effects on the peak cladding temperatures for this reporting period are summarized in Table 1.
