KEWAUNEE POWER STATION RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING RISK-INFORMED INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM PLAN (TAC NO. MC2537)

In a letter from Michael G. Gaffney (Nuclear Management Company, LLC) to Document Control Desk (NRC), "Response To Request For Additional Information Regarding Risk-Informed Inservice Inspection Program Plan (TAC No. MC2537)" dated June 17, 2005, the Nuclear Management Company, LLC (NMC) responded to a request for additional information concerning the Kewaunee Power Station (KPS) Inservice Inspection Program for the Fourth Inspection Interval submittal dated December 16, 2003.

On July 19, 2005, a conference call was held between the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff and Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc. (DEK) staff to discuss the June 17, 2005, response. Specifically, the NRC staff had a question concerning NMC's response to question 3.10(b). The question stated and NMC's response follows:

b) Please confirm that none of the piping-related nondestructive examination (NDEs) to be performed for the Appendix F augmented inspection programs is being credited toward the count of NDEs (locations) for RI-ISI. Otherwise, please describe which programs you intend to do this with, how many welds from each program you intend to credit toward the count of NDEs for Rl-ISI, and why you feel that the prescribed augmented inspection NDE will adequately suffice for the examination method(s) required under RI-ISI.

KNPP Response 3.10 (b)

This is to confirm that none of the additional examinations, with the exception of the Flow Accelerated Corrosion (FAC) Program per Nuclear Regulatory Commission Generic Letter 89-08 requirements, performed in the Appendix F Augmented Examinations of the Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant Fourth Ten-Year ISI Program 2004-2014 will be credited to the Risk Informed Program.

During the teleconference, question 3.10(b) and the response provided were discussed.

DEK staff determined they had misunderstood the question and hereby submits the following response to NRC question 3.10(b):
