D.C. Cook: Additional Draft RAI re. Proposed Amendment (TAC MD3161)

Sue:

This refers to your application for amendment dated 9/15/06 for D.C. Cook Unit 2.

As you requested, our I&C reviewer Hukam Garg wrote out the 2 questions that he verbally stated in the conference call today (1/11/07):

(1) Setpoint Calculation Methodology: Provide documentation (including sample calculations) of the methodology used for establishing the limiting setpoint (or NSP) and the limiting acceptable values for the as-found and as-left setpoints as measured in periodic surveillance testing as described below. Indicate the related analyutical limits and other limiting design values (and the sources of these values) for the setpoint.

(2) This setpoint has been determined to be not SL-related by the licensee. Describe the measures to be taken to ensure that the associated instrument channel is capable of performing its specified safety functions in accordance with applicable design requirements and associated analyses. Include in your discussion information on the controls you employ to ensure that the as-left trip setting after completion of periodic surveillance is consistent with your setpoint methodology. Also, discuss the plant corrective action processes (including plant procedures) for restoring channels to operable status when channels are determined to be "inoperable" or "operable but degraded." If the controls are located in a document other than the TS (e.g., plant test procedure), describe how it is ensured that the control will be implemented.

(3) Discuss any interface between the reactor trip on low turbine oil pressure and programmable logic controller used for turbine control. If these are interfaces between the two, provide justification for the acceptability of these interfaces.
