Catawba Nuclear Station Annual Commitment Change Summary Report for 2006 Dockets Nos. 50-413 and 50-414 NRC Notification Number Source Document Original Commitment Modified Commitment Required Yes 2006-C-001 11/05/2005 letter from Duke to NRC with license amendment request on 14-day nuclear service water (RN) allowed outage time Diesel generator jacket water heat exchanger - A temporary engineering change will be installed on each train of emergency diesel generators (EDG) on both units to maintain the technically inoperable EDG capable of being manually started with the normal nuclear service water system (NSWS) piping is out of service. This will be accomplished by using the fire protection system.

This commitment is being changed for clarity to indicate that finite time periods are required for connecting and disconnecting the temporary cooling water supply system. The following statement should have been included in the 11/05/2005 letter: The only times that the temporary cooling provision will not be available during the NSWS header outages are when it is being physically connected or disconnected.

Original wording of commitment lacked clarity. Probabilistic Risk Assessment evaluated the impact of not having the temporary cooling provision available during connection and disconnection and the impact of the risk result was negligible.
