NOTE: The "NMC 10 CFR 50.59 Resource Manual" (Resource Manual) and NEI 96-07, Appendix B, Guidelines for 10 CFR 72.48 Implementation should be used for guidance to determine the proper responses for 10 CFR 50.59 and 10 CFR 72.48 screenings.

1.1 Describe the proposed activity and the scope of the activity being covered by this screening. (The 10 CFR 50.59/72.48 review of other portions of the proposed activity may be documented via the applicability and pre-screening process requirements inNP 5.1.8.) Appropriate descriptive material maybe attached.

This screening supports procedural uprgrades to address the Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) System issue as identified in CAP, 29908 and CAP 29952. Procedural guidance for operation of AFW System will be changed such that the operator must ensure that discharge flow for P-38 A/B must be greater than 50 gpm and 1/2 P-29 discharge flow must be greater than 75 gprn. If pump flow cannot be maintained within these requirements, the pump must be secured.

1.2 Search the PBNP Current Licensing Basis (CLB) as follows: Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), FSAR Change Requests (FCRs) with assigned numbers, the Fire Protection Evaluation Report (FPER), the CLB (Regulatory) Commitment Database, the Technical Specifications, the Technical Specifications Bases, and the Technical Requirements Manual. Search the ISFSI licensing basis as follows: VSC-24 Safety Analysis Report, the VSC-24 Certificate of Compliance, the CLB (Regulatory)

Commitment Database, and the VSC-24 10 CFR 72.212 Site Evaluation Report Describe the pertinent design function(s),

performance requirements, and methods of evaluation for both the plant and for the cask/ISFSI as appropriate. Identify where the pertinent information is described in the above documents (by document section number and title). (Resource.

Manual 5.3.1 and NEI 96-07, App. B, B.2)

FSAR 10.2 Auxiliary Feedwater System (AF) - The AFW system shall automatically start and deliver adequate AFW flow to maintain adequate steam generator levels during accidents which may result in main steam safety valve opening, such as: Loss of normal feedwater (LONF) and Loss of all AC power to the station auxiliaries (LOAC). AFW system shall also deliver sufficient flow to the steam generators supporting rapid cooldown during such accidents as: steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) and Imain steam line break (MSLB).

Each pump has an AOV controlled recirculation line back to the condensate storage tanks to ensure minimum flow to prevent hydraulic instabilities and dissipate pump heat.

Point Beach Nuclear Plant SCR 2002-0458 10 CFR 50.59/72.48 SCREENING (NEW RULE) Verify SCR number on all pages Page 3 MR-02-029 upgraded the open function of the AFW pumps mini-recirc AOV to safety-related. The safety-related boundary includes the recirc orifice and all associated upstream components and piping. It is postulated that a failure of the piping downstream of the recirc orifice will not have any adverse affects on the AFW system. The availability of the recirculation flowpath provides an additional flowpath to support minimum flow requirements. This procedure change will improve the reliability of the AFW pumps by not relying upon the recirc flow path for operability as it has been concluded that the restrictions in the recirc orifice may not be adequate for use. Whereas current guidance mandates that the operator verify the position of the recirc AOV and the status of the Instrument Air system, these procedural changes will only require the operator to monitor pump discharge flow.

PART 111 (50.59) - DETERMINE WHETHER THE ACTIVITY INVOLVES ADVERSE EFFECTS (Resource Manual 5.3.3)

If ALL the questions in Part HI are answered NO then Part m is El NOT APPLICABLE.

Answer the following questions to determine if the activity has an adverse effect on a design function. Any YES answer means that a 10 CFR 50.59 Evaluation is required; EXCEPT where noted in Part 11.3.

111.1 CHANGES TO THE FACILITY OR PROCEDURES YES NO, QUESTION El 0] Does the activity adversely affect the designfunction of an SSC credited in safety analyses?

El 0 Does the activity adversely affect the method of performing or controlling the designfunction of an SSC credited in the safety analyses?

If any answer is YES, a 10 CFR 50.59 Evaluation is required. If both answers are NO describe the basis for the conclusion (attach additional discussion as necessary):

Minimum flow requirements will be maintained within recommendations from the vendor by monitoring pump discharge flow and securing the pump as required. Starting and stopping of the AFW pumps has been previously evaluated in 50.59 Evaluation 2002-005, which addressed procedural changes to reduce the potential of pump damage as a result of the loss of the recirculation flow path.

11.2 CHANGES TO A METHOD OF EVALUATION (If the activity does not involve a method of evaluation, these questions are 0 NOT APPLICABLE.)

YES NO QUESTION

[] El Does the activity use a revised or different method of evaluation for performing safety analyses than that described in the CLB?

El [E Does the activity use a revised or different method of evaluation for evaluating SSCs credited in safety analyses than that described in the CLB?

If any answer is YES a 10 CFR 50.59 Evaluation is required. If both answers are NO. describe the basis for the conclusion (attach additional discussion, as necessary).
