Dear Mr. Clark:
Re:
St. Lucie Unit 1
Docket No. 50-335 Main Steam Line Break (MSLB)
With Continued Feedwater Addition Florida Power 8 Light has reviewed your letter dated May,13, 1982 concerning our response to IE Bulletin 80-04, "Analysis of a PWR Main Steam Line Break with Continued Feedwater Addition," for St. Lucie Unit l.
Your letter requested additional information concerning the effect of proposed Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) modifications on containment pressure and on core reactivity.
These modifications will allow the AFW system to feed only the steam'enerator unaffected by a Main Steam Line Break.(MSLB).
We have evaluated the effect that the "smart" AFW system will have on containment pressure.
Because the system will not open the valves to the faulted steam generator, the automatically initiated AFW flow will not reach it.
There will be no AFW contribution to the containment pressure calculation.
This will increase the margin between the design pressure and the maximum pressure in the containment during the postulated event.
We do not see the need to submit further calculations to provide the magnitude of the peak pressure, because it will be below that which we have previously described in our response to the Bulletin.
'tem 2 of your letter concerned core reactivity response to a
MSLB.
We have contracted with our new fuel vendor to perform a
MSLB analysis using the parameters of the "smart" AFW system as input.
This analysis is due to be completed in December 1982, at which time we will provide a response to your concern.
This schedule is justified by the fact that the system is not scheduled to be completely installed until our next refueling outage which is presently scheduled for triarch 1983.
Very truly you s
Rober
