SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF MEETING WITH NEBRASKA PUBLIC POWER DISTRICT TO DISCUSS ISSUES RELATED TO MAIN STEAM LINE ISOLATION LEAKAGE PATHWAY SEISMIC EVALUATION (TAC NO. MB7376)
On July 23, 2003, the Nebraska Public Power District (the licensee), met with the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff at the NRC Headquarters. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the issues related to main steam line isolation valve (MSIV) leakage pathway seismic adequacy for iodine plate-out credit in radiological dose assessment of design basis accidents. Enclosure 1 is a list of meeting attendees. Enclosure 2 contains the licensees view-graphs. Enclosure 3 is a drawing that the licensee used to discuss the modifications to ensure seismic ruggedness of the leakage pathway. Enclosure 4 is a list of the NRC staffs questions related to seismic concerns that were discussed at the meeting The licensee outlined the history of the issue since 1994, summarizing the sequence of actions related to seismic considerations of the MSIV leakage pathway during the NRC staff reviews related to four successive license amendments. The amendments were issued to support the Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS) control room emergency filtration system fan capacity increase, and approve revisions to design basis dose assessment calculations methodologies. During each amendment review process the NRC staff raised concerns regarding the licensees assumptions and the licensee partially addressed the NRC staffs concerns. In each case the NRC staff did not approve all the changes requested and permitted continued operation of CNS for one successive operating cycle. The staff required the licensee to maintain potassium iodide (KI) supplements in the control room to mitigate potential accident radiological dose consequences.
The licensee stated that, with the exception of one, all concerns raised in the NRC staff reviews have been addressed. The remaining issue relates to demonstration of seismic ruggedness of MSIV pathway to justify iodine depletion credit due to plate-out in MSIV pathway. This credit is assumed in the licensees revised dose assessment methodology. The licensee went on to describe the design and function of the MSIV pathway that would provide adequate seismic ruggedness.
The licensee described the modifications that have already been made to ensure seismic ruggedness. New valves have been installed to isolate the vulnerable segments of the MSIV pathway. Structural improvements have been installed and emergency lighting provisions have been made to permit the operators to align the MSIV leakage to a seismically rugged pathway.
Procedures have been revised and validated. Implementation has been deferred pending the NRC staffs approval of the changes. The licensee stated that when the changes are accepted
by the staff, the licensee will submit an application for the staff to approve the final loss-of-coolant accident dose assessment methodology, and removal of the license condition 2.C.(6) which requires the licensee to maintain KI in the CNS control room.
The NRC staff stated that it plans to submit a request for additional information (RAI) addressing the remaining seismic, design, and human performance considerations of the proposed modifications as well as operator actions and operating procedures. The NRC staff requested that the licensee provide the responses expeditiously after the receipt of the RAI.
The licensee requested that the NRC staff should submit all RAI in writing.
There were no public comments or questions and the meeting was adjourned.

DOCKET NO.: 50-298, DPR-46
- 1. You stated in Reference 1 that ... Five manual isolation valves to be installed on Main Steam branch lines in order to limit the amount of piping to be credited for the MSIV leakage flowpath (and hence, maintained as seismically robust). Post-accident Operator action will be required to close these valves (which will be located in the Turbine Building)... We request your responses to the following:
C Explanation as to how those five manual isolation valves will be seismically qualified.
C Provide a comparison between the Coopers MSIV leakage path proposed manual isolation valves and the earthquake experience database concerning seismic performance of this class of equipment.
C Indicate whether the leakage path with the manual isolation valves installed meets the provisions in the SQUG-GIP 2 (Reference 2). If it does not, identify how the outlier conditions were resolved.
C Indicate whether the five manual valves will be part of the Coopers in-service testing (IST) program. If they are not, provide justification as to why they should not be part of the IST program.
- 2. You stated in Reference 3 that ... The cross-sectional leakage area is being reduced by mechanically adjusting the Stop Valve actuator/control shaft positions through use of a special pre-staged tool, applied as a post-Loss Coolant Accident manual action... We request your response to the following:
C Explanation as to how the mechanically adjusted Stop Valve actuator/control shaft with a special pre-staged tool will be seismically robust.
C Provide a comparison between the MSIV leakage path Stop Valve actuator with the proposed adjustment and the earthquake experience database concerning seismic performance of the equipment class that encompasses the reconfigured Stop Valve.
