SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 227 TO RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-24 AND AMENDMENT NO. 232 TO RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-27 NUCLEAR MANAGEMENT COMPANY, LLC POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-266 AND 50-301
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated June 6, 2006, Nuclear Management Company, LLC (NMC), requested the review of a reactor vessel fracture mechanics analysis for Point Beach Nuclear Plant (PBNP)
Units 1 and 2, incorporating an updated analysis for satisfying the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) Charpy upper-shelf energy (USE) requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix G,Section IV.A.1.c. In support of this application, the licensee enclosed AREVA Document BAW-2467P, Revision 1, Low Upper-Shelf Toughness Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Reactor Vessel of Point Beach Units 1 and 2 for Extended Life through 53 Effective Full Power Years, dated October 2004, for review.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
The underlying purpose of Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 is to set forth fracture toughness requirements for ferritic materials of pressure-retaining components of the reactor coolant pressure boundary of light-water nuclear power reactors to provide adequate margins of safety during any condition of normal operation, including anticipated operational occurrences and system hydrostatic tests, to which the pressure boundary may be subjected over its service lifetime. Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 requires that RPV beltline materials have Charpy USE values in the transverse direction for the base metal and along the weld for the weld material of no less than 75 ft-lb (102 J) initially, and must maintain Charpy USE values throughout the life of the vessel of no less than 50 ft-lb (68 J). However, in accordance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix G, paragraph IV.A.1.a., Charpy USE values below these criteria may be acceptable if it is demonstrated, in a manner approved by the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, that the lower values of Charpy USE will provide margins of safety against fracture equivalent to those required by Appendix G of Section XI of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code. Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.99, Revision 2, Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials, provides an expanded discussion regarding the calculation of Charpy USE values.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
NMC indicated that the Charpy USE for the limiting welds will be less than 50 ft-lbs based on RG 1.99, Revision 2, at 53 effective full power years (EFPY). Therefore, in order to demonstrate that sufficient margins of safety against fracture remain to satisfy the requirements of Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50, a fracture mechanics evaluation was performed to examine the PBNP USE values in the limiting weld. The evaluation examined the USE values for end of license extension (EOLE) conditions. The PBNP fracture mechanics evaluation used the J-R ratio methodology, which demonstrates the acceptability of J-R values in satisfying the USE requirement by examining J-R ratios, which are defined as the ratio of the lower bound J-R value divided by the applied J. If this ratio is greater than or equal to one, the acceptance criteria are met. This methodology is described in B&W Owners Reactor Vessel Working Group reports BAW-2192PA, Low Upper-Shelf Toughness Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Reactor Vessels of B&W Owners Reactor Vessel Working Group for Level A & B Service Loads, and BAW-2178-PA, Low Upper-Shelf Toughness Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Reactor Vessels of B&W Owners Reactor Vessel Working Group for Level C & D Service Loads, both dated April 1994. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff reviewed and approved both reports for referencing in licensing applications in separate letters dated March 29, 1994.
Additional equivalent margins analyses were performed for the PBNP RPVs to address the following EOLE conditions: the uprated power condition of 1678 megawatt thermal (MWt) without hafnium suppression assemblies; current power conditions of 1540 MWt without hafnium suppression assemblies; and current power conditions of 1540 MWt with hafnium suppression assemblies. The 2004 fluence projections were used to define EOLE vessel fluences. These analyses used the same methodologies described in the above references and are summarized in BAW-2467P.
In BAW-2467P, the licensee performed a plant-specific fracture mechanics analysis. The lower bounding J-R values and all acceptance ratios are summarized in Tables 6-4 through 6-6 of the report. From the tables, it can be seen that the controlling weld is axial weld SA-847, with a minimum ratio of material J integral resistance to the applied J integral of 1.87 under current power conditions without hafnium power suppression absorber rods installed. Since the values of the J-R ratios are greater than one, the acceptance criteria for equivalent margins analysis have been met.
To confirm that the licensees analysis satisfied the criteria in ASME Code Section XI, Appendix K, the NRC staff performed an independent analysis using the methodologies and models specified in RG 1.161, Evaluation of Reactor Pressure Vessels with Charpy Upper-Shelf Energy Less than 50 ft-lb, NUREG/CR-5729, Multivariable Modeling of Pressure Vessel and Piping J-R Data, and ASME Service Levels A, B, C and D loadings based on the evaluation criteria of the ASME Code,Section XI, Appendix K. Based on the NRC staffs analysis, the NRC staff confirmed that the PBNP, Units 1 and 2 RPVs would have margins of safety against fracture equivalent to those required by Appendix G of Section XI of the ASME Code through the period of extended operation.
A low upper-shelf toughness fracture mechanics analysis was performed to evaluate the RPV welds at PBNP, Units 1 and 2 for projected low USE levels at EOLE (53 EFPY), considering Levels A, B, D, and D service loadings of the ASME Code. For Levels A and B service loading,
the low USE fracture toughness analysis was performed according to the acceptance criteria and evaluation procedures contained in Appendix K to Section XI of the ASME Code. There are no Level C service load transients specified for PBNP. Three Level D transients were evaluated, including: the reactor coolant line break loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA), the Final Safety Analysis Report steamline break, and the RPV equipment specification steamline break transients. The LOCA transient is the most limiting Level D transient.
ASME Code,Section XI, Appendix K contains a methodology and criteria acceptable to the NRC staff for satisfying the requirement in paragraph IV.A.1.a of Appendix G to demonstrate that materials with Charpy USE values below 50 ft-lb (68 J) provide margins of safety against fracture equivalent to those required by Appendix G of Section XI of the ASME Code. Based on its analysis, the NRC staff confirmed the conclusion that the analysis contained in AREVA Document BAW-2467P, Revision 1, Low Upper-Shelf Toughness Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Reactor Vessel of Point Beach Units 1 and 2 for Extended Life through 53 Effective Full Power Years, is in accordance with ASME Code,Section XI, Appendix K, and the licensee has satisfied the requirement in paragraph IV.A.1.a of Appendix G, 10 CFR Part 50, for satisfying the RPV Charpy USE requirements through the end of the units current operating licenses.
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the Wisconsin State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment. The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The amendment changes a requirement with respect to 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 amendment involves 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 amendment involves no significant hazards consideration, and there has been no public comment on such finding (71 FR 40750). Accordingly, the amendment meets 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 amendment.
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 amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
