_41frr Purpose
- Continue briefing the NRC on upcoming plant license amendment in support of increased SGTP (up to 42%)
ReduceTechnical Specifications RCS Flow Reduce Reactor Thermal Power
- Finalize on TS RCS Flow change wording
- Provide an update on ongoing analyses
- Discuss and obtain NRC feedback on partial submittal and any potential issues

Proposed Tech Spec Changes TS LCO 3.2.5, DNB Parameters: Include additional footnote in Tech SpecTable 3.2-2 for 335,000 gpm RCS flow rate, as follows:
Commencing with the startup for Cycle 16 and until the Combustion Engineering Model 3410 Steam Generators are replaced, if the Reactor Coolant System Flow Rate is less than 335,000 gpm but greater than or equal to 300,000 gpm, then the maximum reactor THERMAL POWER shall not exceed 89% of RATED THERMAL POWER of 2700 MWt:
Slids Proposed Tech Spec Changes (Continued)
TS SR 4.2.5.2: Modify footnote on Tech Spec page 3/42-14 to replace "Ž90%" with "Ž80%"
Definition of RATED THERMAL POWER remains unchanged The Tech Spec change submitted with Sleeving PLA to update the reference to WCAP-1 591 8-P, Rev2 No change to Figure 2.1-1 (Thermal Limit Lines). Figure remains bounding for proposed reduction in RCS flow to 300,000 gpm Sltide 6,
TS Wording Currently Planned for the Sleeving LAR InsertCforTS Page3/44-15:
- 10. Tube Repair refers to sleeving with Westinghouse Leak Limiting Alloy 800 sleeves as described in WCAP-1 591 8-P Revision 2, which are used to maintain a tube in service. Leak Limiting Alloy 800 Sleeves are applicable only to the original steam generators. The pressure boundary portion of the original tube wall in the sleeve/tube assembly (i.e., the sleeve-to-tube joint) shall be inspected prior to installation of each sleeve. In addition, Leak Limiting Alloy 800 Sleeves that have a nickel band hard roll shall be plugged or removed from service after one cycle.
New TS Change identified for 42% SGTP Submittal I InsertCforTS Page3/44-15:
- 10. Tube Repair refersto sleeving with Westinghouse Leak Limiting Alloy 800 sleeves as described in WCAP-15918-P Revision 2*, which are used to maintain a tube in service. Leak Limiting Alloy 800 Sleeves are applicable only to the original steam generators. The pressure boundary portion of the original tube wall in the sleeve/tube assembly (i.e., the sleeve-to-tube joint) shall be inspected prior to installation of each sleeve.

Applicability of Methods - RETRAN Model RETRAN SG Model Currently used for conditions that bound the conditions associated with the 42% SGTP program
- Note that although total RCS flowtends to drop with increased plugging levels, mass velocity on tube side tends to increase.
- Secondary side global conditions, such as the steam pressure, are within the bounds of what has been modeled in the past for St. Lucie Unit 2 and for other plants (see analysis results plots).

Event Specific Comparisons of Results Overview:
Majority of the analyses are complete Preliminary results from all analyses show results as expected (no surprises)
- All analyses meet the appropriate acceptance criteria (same criteria as 30% SGTP cases)
All models and correlations remain applicable for the new analyzed conditions with no violation of parameter ranges.

- Analysis for 30% SGTP shows:
BoriccAdd concentration in the core may reach solubility limit at 7.8 hrs post-LOCA if hot and cold side injection is not initiated An initiation of hot and cold leg injection starting between 2 and 6 hrs post-LOCA prevents boric add concentration in the core from reaching the solubility limit The Preliminary results of the updated analysis show:
Boric Ad precipitation time increases when the effects of voids and compensating factors are considered.
The hot and cold leg initiation time between 2 and 6 hrs. remains valid WWW Sidee87 Oe E

Loss of flow, Loss of condenser vacuum, Asymmetric steam generator transient, Feedwater malfunction, CVCS malfunction, CEA withdrawal from a subcritical condition, Steam generator tube rupture
- Submittal will include framework for uncompleted sections 5Sde',l Other Topics Other Related LAR SG Tube Sleeving submittal Pressure drop across sleeves will increase by 65 psid.
The justification forthe increased pressure differential will be submitted as a part of the 42% SGTP LAR.

Summary
- TS changes are minimal, mainly related to RCS flow.
- The analyses completed show compliance with all the acceptance criteria.
- Remaining analyses are dose to being completed and preliminary conclusions show no violation of criteria.
- All models and correlations remain applicable for the new analyzed conditions with no violation of parameter ranges.
- Final submittal will be made November 1, 2005
- Pre-submittal can be made by October 3, 2005 SU9,
