Title:

Instrument Setpoint Calculation Revision 1 Reactor Low Pressure Permissive Bypass Timer Page 1 of 14

1. Purpose This calculation performs a setpoint calculation for the Reactor Low Pressure Permissive Bypass Timers 1OA-K95A, 1OA-K95B, 14A-K27A, and 14A-K27B.

This calculation is performed to support the extended calibration and surveillance intervals of the time delay relays as part of the 24-Month Fuel Cycle Extension project.

Revision 1 of this calculation is being performed in support of License Amendment 170, Input 4.14, which removed the lower allowable limit for the Reactor Steam Dome Pressure Permissive - Bypass Timer (Automatic Depressurization System (ADS) bypass timer) of'> 18min', in Table 3.3.5.1-1 of Technical Specification (TS) 3.3.5.1. With the removal of the lower bound the nominal setpoint will be revised to support future EPU operating conditions based on information provided in Calculation 12-046, Rev 0, MNGP Automatic Depressurization System Bypass Timer Extended Power Uprate (Input 4.13).

The setpoint will be revised from a nominal value of 20 minutes to 15 minutes. This will ensure peak cladding temperature (PCT) remains well below the 10CFR50.46 limit for PCT of 2200°F (approximately 15000F)during both current and future EPU operating conditions.

2. Methodology This calculation is performed in accordance with ESM-03.02-APP-I (Input 4.1). The General Electric Setpoint Methodology is a statistically based methodology. It recognizes that most of the uncertainties that affect instrument performance are subject to random behavior, and utilize statistical (probability) estimates of the various uncertainties to achieve conservative, but reasonable, predictions of instrument channel uncertainties. The objective of the statistical approach to setpoint calculations is to achieve a workable compromise between the need to ensure instrument trips when appropriate, and the need to avoid spurious trips that may unnecessarily challenge safety systems or disrupt plant operation.

Drift values for the time delay relays covered by this calculation were determined in Calculation CA-03-054 (Input 4.4).

The methodology for determining instrument setpoints is not described in the USAR or its references. However, USAR Section 7.1.2.2 does state that MNGP is committed to the GE Setpoint Methodology for instrument setpoint calculations associated with safety limits and Technical Specifications.

3. Acceptance Criteria The setpoint and instrument settings should be established such that there is a 95%

probability that the constructed Analytical Limit will envelope 95% of the instrument population of interest when all applicable instrumentation uncertainties are considered.

4. Design Inputs 4.1 Engineering Standards Manual ESM-03.02-APP-I, Appendix I (GE Methodology Instrumentation & Controls), Revision 4. The ESM provides plant specific guidance on the implementation of the General Electric guidelines (Reference 10.1) and methodology (Reference 10.2).

Instrument Setpoint Calculation Revision 1 I Reactor Low Pressure Permissive Bypass Timer Page 9 of 14 6.5 Calculation of Allowable Value and Operating Setpoint 6.5.1 Allowable Value (AV):

From Input 4.13, it can be seen that for the bounding scenario of RWCU for MELLA+ with a gate valve a time of 1579 seconds is required to reach 2200° F.

Input 4.13 also shows that it takes approximately 1350 (22.5 minutes) seconds to reach 15000 F. In order to provide sufficient time to cool the core, the actuation of ADS should occur prior to reaching 1500° F, therefore additional consideration is given for the following delays in the ADS initiation: from Input 4.13 a delay of 36 seconds from time 0 of the scenario is taken for initiation of the low low level signal, from Input 4.16 the time required for ECCS pumps to reach rated speed is 18 seconds, from Input 4.15 the ADS timer delay is 138 seconds. Therefore an analytical value of 1158 seconds will be used.

1350s - 36s - 18s - 138s = 1158s (19.3 mins)

Conservatively rounding down the calculated AV, the new Technical Specification trip setting will be considered the AV for this calculation.

Any Z value greater than 1.29 provides sufficient margin between the NTSP and the AV. Therefore, NTSP 2 is calculated to provide upper and lower bounds for the NTSP based on LER avoidance criteria.

NTSP2u = 18.0 -(1.29 x 0.834)

NTSP2U = 16.92 Therefore, an NTSP 2 < 16.92, will result in a Z greater than 1.29 and provide sufficient margin between the NTSP and the Allowable Value.

6.5.5 Establishing As-Found Tolerance (AFT)

An As-Found Tolerance is calculated to provide suggested limits for use during the surveillance testing:

AFT = +3 VA + DL.Random2 + DTE2 + DLBia 2

AFT=+/--3 V1.0' +0.3281' +02 +0.0386 2

AFT =-1.54 minutes, + 1.61 minutes These As Found tolerances produce As Found limits as follows]

AF = +TS + AFT AF = 15-1.54 to 15+1.61 AF = 13.46 minutes to 16.61 minutes A review of As-Found data (Input 4.4) shows that these relays have historically performed within the calculated AFT.

6.5.6 Required Limits Evaluation The purpose of a Required Limits Evaluation is to assure that the combination of errors present during calibration of each device in the channel is accounted for while allowing for the possibility that the devices may not be recalibrated. Since Leave Alone Zones are not used at MNGP, the devices are always verified or recalibrated to be within the As Left Zone. Therefore, a Required Limits Evaluation as discussed in the GE methodology is not applicable.

Instrument Setpoint Calculation Revision 1 Reactor Low Pressure Permissive Bypass Timer Page 12 of 14 As a result of Condition Report (CR) 02001013 (Reference 10.9), the As Found values are reviewed to verify that the As Found value is not outside the Technical Specification range. The As Found limits are not outside the Technical Specification range, and are therefore acceptable as computed in Section 6.5.5.

6.5.7 Spurious Trip Avoidance Evaluation Aspurious trip avoidance evaluation is performed to assure that there is a reasonable probability that spurious trips will not occur using the selected setpoint. Since the setpoint is evaluated against the high and low limits, a spurious trip avoidance evaluation is not applicable.

6.5.8 Elevation Correction None.

6.5.9 Determination of Action Setpoint The nominal setpoint of 15 minutes will be used.

SUBJECT:

MONTICELLO NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT - ISSUANCE OF AMENDMENT REGARDING THE AUTOMATIC DEPRESSURIZATION SYSTEM BYPASS TIMER (TAC NO. ME8345)

Dear Schimmel:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued the enclosed Amendment No. 170 to Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR-22 for the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant.

The amendment consists of changes to the technical specifications (TSs) in response t6 your application dated April 5, 2012.

The amendment revises TSs to eliminate the lower allowable value limit of ">18 minutes" for Functions I.e and 2.e, "Reactor Steam Dome Pressure Permissive - Bypass Timer (Pump Permissive)," in Table 3.3.5.1-1, "Emergency Core Cooling System Instrumentation."

Please note that the NRC staff declined to issue this amendment by the licensee's requested issuance date of June 6, 2012; the application did not provide any reason for shortening the regulatory 60-day notice period during which interested parties may petition for a hearing.

A copy of our related safety evaluation is also enclosed. The Notice of Issuance will be included in the Commission's biweekly FederalRegister notice.

Sincerely, SS ior Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch I1-1 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-263

L-MT-13-019 ENCLOSURE 5 GENERAL ELECTRIC- HITACHI AFFIDAVIT FOR WITHHOLDING PROPRIETARY INFORMATION 3 pages follow

GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC AFFIDAVIT I, James F. Harrison, state as follows:

(1) I am the Vice President Fuel Licensing of GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC (GEH), and have been delegated the function of reviewing the information described in paragraph (2) that is sought to be withheld, and have been authorized to apply for its withholding.

(2) The information sought to be withheld is contained in GEH proprietary report NEDC 33800P, "Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant Automatic Depressurization System Bypass Timer Extended Power Uprate," Revision 0, dated January 2013. GEH proprietary information in NEDC-33800P is identified by a dark red dotted underline inside double square brackets, ((Th.ibs sentence is an examp.le..13).)). Figure and large equation objects containing GEH proprietary information are identified with double square brackets before and after the object. In each case, the superscript notation (3)refers to Paragraph (3) of this affidavit, which provides the basis for the proprietary determination.

(3) In making this application for withholding of proprietary information of which it is the owner or licensee, GEH relies upon the exemption from disclosure set forth in the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. Sec. 552(b)(4), and the Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C.

Sec. 1905, and NRC regulations 10 CFR 9.17(a)(4), and 2.390(a)(4) for trade secrets (Exemption 4). The material for which exemption from disclosure is sought also qualifies under the narrower definition of trade secret, within the meanings assigned to those terms for purposes of FOIA Exemption 4 as decided in Critical Mass Energy Project v. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 975 F.2d 871 (D.C. Cir. 1992), and Public Citizen Health Research Group v. FDA, 704 F.2d 1280 (D.C. Cir. 1983).

(4) The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the reasons set forth in paragraphs (4)a. and (4)b. Some examples of categories of information that fit into the definition of proprietary information are:

a. Information that discloses a process, method, or apparatus, including supporting data and analyses, where prevention of its use by GEH's competitors without license from GEH constitutes a competitive economic advantage over GEH or other companies.
b. Information that, if used by a competitor, would reduce their expenditure of resources or improve their competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing of a similar product.

C. Information that reveals aspects of past, present, or future GEH customer-funded development plans and programs, that may include potential products of GEH.

d. Information that discloses trade secret or potentially patentable subject matter for which it may be desirable to obtain patent protection.

NEDC-33800P, Revision 0 Affidavit Page I of 3

(5) To address 10 CFR 2.390(b)(4), the information sought to be withheld is being submitted to the NRC in confidence. The information is of a sort customarily held in confidence by GEH, and is in fact so held. The information sought to be withheld has, to the best of my knowledge and belief, consistently been held in confidence by GEH, not been disclosed publicly, and not been made available in public sources. All disclosures to third parties, including any required transmittals to the NRC, have been made, or must be made, pursuant to regulatory provisions or proprietary or confidentiality agreements that provide for maintaining the information in confidence. The initial designation of this information as proprietary information, and the subsequent steps taken to prevent its unauthorized disclosure are as set forth in the following paragraphs (6) and (7).

(6) Initial approval of proprietary treatment of a document is made by the manager of the originating component, who is the person most likely to be acquainted with the value and sensitivity of the information in relation to industry knowledge, or who is the person most likely to be subject to the terms under which it was licensed to GEH. Access to such documents within GEH is limited to a "need to know" basis.

(7) The procedure for approval of external release of such a document typically requires review by the staff manager, project manager, principal scientist, or other equivalent authority for technical content, competitive effect, and determination of the accuracy of the proprietary designation. Disclosures outside GEH are limited to regulatory bodies, customers, and potential customers, and their agents, suppliers, and licensees, and others with a legitimate need for the information, and then only in accordance with appropriate regulatory provisions or proprietary and/or confidentiality agreements.

(8) The information identified in paragraph (2), above, is classified as proprietary because it contains detailed results of an analysis performed by GEH to support the Monticello Extended Power Uprate (EPU) license application. This analysis is part of the GEH EPU methodology. Development of the EPU methodology and supporting analysis, techniques, and information and their application for the design, modification, and processes were achieved at a significant cost GEH.

The development of the evaluation processes along with the interpretation and application of the analytical results is derived from the extensive experience database that constitutes a major GEH asset.

(9) Public disclosure of the information sought to be withheld is likely to cause substantial harm to GEH's competitive position and foreclose or reduce the availability of profit-making opportunities. The information is part of GEH's comprehensive BWR safety and technology base, and its commercial value extends beyond the original development cost.

The value of the technology base goes beyond the extensive physical database and analytical methodology and includes development of the expertise to determine and apply the appropriate evaluation process. In addition, the technology base includes the value derived from providing analyses done with NRC-approved methods.

The research, development, engineering, analytical and NRC review costs comprise a substantial investment of time and money by GEH. The precise value of the expertise to devise an evaluation process and apply the correct analytical methodology is difficult to quantify, but it clearly is substantial. GEH's competitive advantage will be lost if its competitors are able to use the results of the GEH experience to normalize or verify their own process or if they are able to claim an equivalent understanding by demonstrating that they can arrive at the same or similar conclusions.

The value of this information to GEH would be lost if the information were disclosed to the public. Making such information available to competitors without their having been required to undertake a similar expenditure of resources would unfairly provide competitors with a windfall, and deprive GEH of the opportunity to exercise its competitive advantage to seek an adequate return on its large investment in developing and obtaining these very valuable analytical tools.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing affidavit and the matters stated therein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief.

Executed on this 14 th day of January 2013.
