REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT (PNPP)
LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO REVISE THE MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO SAFETY LIMIT CONTAINED IN THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has reviewed the April 5, 2004, FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company submittal regarding changes to the PNPP Technical Specification change.
In order to complete the review of the proposed license amendment request, the staff needs the following information concerning Perry/Safety Limit minimum critical power ratio (MCPR) safety limit for minimum critical power ratio (SLMCPR) submittal.
(1) The calculated values of maintenance improvement program (MIP) and reactor internal pump (RIP) were used to compare quantities that impact the calculated SLMCPR value for the Perry Unit 1, Cycle 10. Based on these comparisons, the licensee concluded that the core bundle-by-bundle MCPR distribution is slightly flatter than the distribution evaluated for Cycle 9 (as indicated by MIP); whereas, Cycle 10 has a more peaked in-bundle pin-by-pin power distribution (as indicated by RIP) than what was used for Cycle
- 9. It was stated in the submittal that the calculated safety limit is dominated by two key parameters:
(1) flatness of the core bundle-by-bundle MCPR distributions, and (2) flatness of the bundle pin-by-pin power/R-factor distributions. It was further stated that greater flatness in either parameter yields more rods susceptible to boiling transition; and consequently, the necessity of a higher (more conservative) calculated SLMCPR.
Contrary to the above statement made in the submittal, the staff noted that although the bundle-by-bundle MCPR distribution is flatter for Cycle 10, the proposed SLMCPR for Cycle 10 is lower (less conservative) than Cycle 9. The staff requests the licensee to explain this apparent contradiction.
(2) The proposed cycle-specific determination of the SLMCPR values for Perry Unit 1, Cycle 10 are acceptable to the staff provided that the conditions stated in the staff safety evaluation report (SER) approving Amendment No. 25 and two licensing technical reviews on uncertainties for SLMCPR evaluations (Reference 1) are met. The staff, therefore, requests the licensee to affirm that all the conditions discussed in the SER have been satisfied. In order for the licensee to generate the proposed SLMCPR values, if it was necessary to deviate from any of the assumptions and the conditions outlined in the staff SER for a cycle-specific determination of the SLMCPR, then the licensee should discuss those deviations and provide the technical justifications for their acceptability.
(3) The staff requests the licensee to confirm whether the proposed SLMCPR values for Perry Unit 1, Cycle 10 are only applicable for the currently approved (for Cycle 9) operating conditions, and that operation beyond the currently approved conditions and power level is not anticipated for Cycle 10.
