1.0 INTRODUCTION
By application dated December 29, 2006 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML070160265), Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E, the licensee) requested changes to the Technical Specifications (Appendix A to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-80 and DPR-82) for the Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1 and 2 (DCPP).
The proposed amendments would revise Technical Specification (TS) Section 5.5.8, Inservice Testing Program, in order to update references to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Specifically, the proposed change would adopt the administrative, editorial, and clarification TS changes contained in TS Task Force (TSTF) Travelers TSTF-479, Revision 0, Changes to Reflect Revision of 10 CFR [Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations] 50.55a, and TSTF-497, Revision 0, Limit Inservice Testing Program SR [Surveillance Requirement] 3.0.2 Application to Frequencies of 2 Years or Less.
These changes reflect the current configuration of the plant.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
Section 50.55a(f)(5)(ii) of 10 CFR requires that, if a revised inservice test (IST) program for a facility conflicts with the TS for that facility, the licensee shall apply to the Commission for amendment of the TS to conform the TS to the revised program. The licensee is required to submit the application, as specified in 10 CFR 50.4, at least 6 months before the start of the period during which the provisions become applicable, as determined by 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(4).
In 1990, the ASME published the initial edition of the ASME Operation and Maintenance (OM)
Code, which provides requirements for IST of pumps and valves. The ASME OM Code was developed and is maintained by the ASME Committee on Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants. The ASME OM Code was developed in response to the ASME Board on Nuclear Codes and Standards directive that transferred responsibility for development and maintenance of requirements for the IST of pumps and valves from the ASME,Section XI, Subcommittee on Nuclear Inservice Inspection to the ASME OM Committee. The ASME
intended the ASME OM Code to replace Section XI rules for IST of pumps and valves, and the Section XI requirements for IST of pumps and valves that had been incorporated by reference into the NRC regulations have been deleted from Section XI. The DCPP third 10-year IST interval programs were developed to meet the requirements of the 2001 Edition including the OMa-2002 and OMb-2003 Addenda of the ASME OM Code. The TS 5.5.8 reference to Section XI of the ASME Code for IST requirements results in a reference to a deleted portion of the ASME Code. PG&E submitted this TS amendment to revise the TS to reference the current ASME Code requirements.
NUREG-1431, Standard Technical Specifications Westinghouse Plants, Revision 3.0, was modified via TSTF traveler TSTF-479 in December 2005. This traveler addressed changes to Section 5.5.8, "Inservice Testing Program," in Revision 3.1 of the standard TSs (STS), to reflect revisions of 10 CFR 50.55a referencing the ASME OM Code and the application of SR 3.0.2 to test frequencies specified in the IST program.
The NRCs findings with respect to authorizing the TS amendment are given below.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
Section 50.55a(f), "Inservice Testing Requirements," requires, in part, that ASME Class 1, 2, and 3 components must meet the requirements of the ASME OM Code. The ASME publishes a new edition of the ASME OM Code every 3 years, and a new addendum every year. The DCPP third interval IST program was updated to comply with the 2001 Edition through 2003 Addenda of the ASME OM Code pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(4)(ii). As a consequence, the TS 5.5.8 reference to Section XI of the ASME Code for IST requirements results in a reference to a deleted portion of the ASME Code.
The licensee proposed to adopt the administrative, editorial and clarification TS changes contained in TSTF travelers TSTF-479, Revision 0, Changes to Reflect Revision of 10 CFR 50.55a, and TSTF-497, Revision 0, Limit Inservice Testing Program SR 3.0.2 Application to Frequencies of 2 Years or Less. TSTF traveler TSTF-479 revised the STS by adopting ASME Code and certain associated periodicities for IST activities consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a. The TS changes do not eliminate any inservice tests and do not deprive the licensee of its ability to seek relief from Code test requirements when they are impractical. The changes will eliminate the ASME Code inconsistency between the IST program and the TS pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(5)(ii). The proposed change to the TS references from "ASME Section XI" to "ASME OM Code" will maintain consistency with the Code requirements; therefore, the NRC staff finds this proposed change to be acceptable. Additionally, the proposed changes to TS 5.5.8.a and TS 5.5.8.d are consistent with the comparable Section 5.5.7 of the STS, Revision 3.1.
TSTF traveler TSTF-497 clarified the description of the test intervals for valves with intervals of 2 years or less to include intervals derived from risk-informed evaluations that may not be contained in STS 5.5.8. Since the clarification to STS 5.5.8 did not affect the maximum 2-year valve test interval in STS 5.5.8, TSTF traveler TSTF-497 do not alter the STS requirements.
The licensees revision adopts TSTF traveler TSTF-497 changes into the Section 5.5.8.b of the DCPP TS, which includes additional wording confirming that valve test interval extension in the inservice inspection program applies only to valves with test intervals of 2 years or less. The
licensees proposed change to TS 5.5.8.b applies SR 3.0.2 to the frequencies specified in TS 5.5.8.a and other normal and accelerated frequencies specified as 2 years or less in the IST program. This change recognizes that the IST program may direct that additional tests be performed in accordance with the ASME OM Code that are not at the standard intervals listed in TS 5.5.8.a. Additionally, the licensee has explicitly limited application of SR 3.0.2 to frequencies specified as 2 years or less. These aspects of the proposed change implement Code provisions that provide the basis for the IST program, and they are consistent with guidance contained in NUREG-1482, Guidelines for Inservice Testing at Nuclear Power Plants, regarding maximum allowable extensions of test intervals. Therefore, the NRC staff finds this proposed change to be acceptable.
The NRC staff concludes that the licensees proposed changes are technically justified, do not alter the DCPP TS requirements, conform to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a, comply with 10 CFR 50.36, and are consistent with the STS. On this basis, the NRC staff concludes that the proposed changes to the TS of the DCPP are acceptable.
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the California State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendments. The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The amendments change a requirement with respect to the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20. The NRC staff has determined that the amendments involve no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the amendments involve no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comment on such finding (72 FR 6784, published on February 13, 2007). Accordingly, the amendments meet the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendments.
6.0 CONCLUSION
The Commission has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that: (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
