Addendum to Response to Request for Information Regarding Flooding Aspects of Recommendation 2.1 of the Near-Term Task Force Review of Insights from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Accident- Fort Calhoun Station Flood Hazard Reevaluation Report

References:

1. Letter from OPPD (L. P. Cortopassi) to NRC (Document Control Desk),

"Response to Request for Information Regarding Flooding Aspects of Recommendation 2.1 of the Near-Term Task Force Review of Insights from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Accident- Fort Calhoun Station Flood Hazard Reevaluation Report," dated February 4, 2015 (LIC-15-0015) (ML15042A127)

2. Email from NRC (Tekia Govan) to NPPD (Brenda Kirkpatrick) and OPPD (Michael Edwards), "Ft Calhoun/Cooper Audit Status," dated July 8, 2015 The purpose of this letter is to provide the dam failure 2D TUFLOW model results. As such, Enclosure 1 provides Addendum 1 to the Flood Hazard Reevaluation Report (FHRR) submitted by the Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) in February 2015 (Reference 1).

As noted in Reference 2, during _the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRG) FHRR joint audit of OPPD and the Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD), the staff was informed that a dam failure scenario utilizing the 20 TUFLOW model would be developed for both Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS) and FCS. This analysis provides a more explicit representation of flow velocities, water depths, and channel/overbank velocity distributions. -

During the development of the 2D TUFLOW Model, OPPD was asked to conduct a sensitivity analysis on extending the upstream boundary to a point above the Soldier River. The results of that sensitivity analysis presented during the audit show that there are negligible differences in water surface elevation (WSEL) and flow distributions between the original and extended upstream boundary 2D TUFLOW models.
