SUMMARY
OF MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 6, 2003, TO DISCUSS INDIANA MICHIGAN POWER COMPANYS PLANS TO TRANSITION TO FRAMATOME ANP FUEL On November 6, 2003, representatives of Indiana Michigan Power Company (I&M or the licensee) and Framatome ANP met with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff to make a presentation on their planned transition to Framatome ANP designed fuel at the Donald C. Cook plant (DCP).
The meeting began with I&M discussing the fuel design and methodology it planned to use at DCP Unit 1, the submittals the licensee believed were necessary to seek approval from the NRC for the change in fuel design and the licensees planned dates for submitting these requests. The licensee explained that it planned on using the Framatome ANP 15x15 HTP fuel design with M5TM cladding. The licensee provided an overview of the design of this fuel including its unique design features. The licensee continued with a discussion of industrys experience with the HTP fuel design, including domestic and foreign experience. The licensee then discussed analysis methodology and technical specification (TS) changes that are needed to implement the fuel design change. The licensee concluded with a discussion of its planned submittal scheduling indicating that it planned to submit a request to amend the Unit 1 TSs in April 2004, with analyses of loss of flow and loss-of-coolant accident following in June and August 2004. The licensee further indicated that it would request approval by January 2005 and planned to implement the fuel change in April 2005.
The NRC staff discussed challenges it foresaw with the proposed schedule. Specifically, the staff indicated that the submittal of analyses in June and August 2004, would present challenges in completing the reviews by January 2005. The NRC staff questioned the licensee on contingency planning in case the staff was not able to complete its review. The licensee indicated that it did not have a contingency plan but that it was preparing a quality application and would provide the necessary support to address staff questions in a timely manner during the review.
No regulatory commitments or decisions were made by the NRC staff or the licensee during the meeting.
An attendance list is provided in Enclosure 1. The licensees presentation slides used during the meeting are provided in Enclosure 2.
