1.0 INTRODUCTION

By application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) dated October 15,2007 (Agencywide Documents Access and ManClgement System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML072950183), as supplemented by letter dated July 8, 2008 (ADAMS Accession No. ML081980057), Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E, the licensee) requested changes to the technical specifications (TS) for the Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1 and 2 (DCPP) in accordance with Section 50.90 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR). The supplemental letter dated July 8, 2008, provided additional information that clarified the application, did not expand the scope of the application as originally noticed, and did not change the NRC staff's original proposed no significant hazards consideration determination as published in the Federal Register (FR) on November 20, 2007 (72 FR 65370).

1.1 Proposed License Amendment The proposed changes would relocate surveillance frequencies of most surveillance tests from the TS to a licensee-controlled document, the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (SFCP).

Once relocated, changes to the surveillance frequencies may be made using a risk-informed methodology, Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) document NEI 04-10, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 5B, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies,"

Rev. 1 (ADAMS Accession No. IVIL071360456) (Ref. 8), as specified in the Administrative Controls of the TS. By letter dated September 19, 2007, the NRC staff issued its "Final Safety Evaluation For Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Topical Report (TR) 04-10, Revision 1, "Risk-Informed Technical Specification Initiative 5B, 'Risk-Informed Method For Control Of Surveillance Frequencies (TAC No. MD6111 ),'" (ADAMS Accession No. ML072570267)

(Ref. 9), which approved NEI 04-10 Rev. 1, as acceptable for referencing by licensees proposing to amend their TS to establish a surveillance frequency control program.

The term "STAGGERED TEST BASIS" in Section 1.1, "DEFINITIONS," is deleted since it is no longer contained in any TS. A new TS Section 5.5.18, "Surveillance Frequency Control Program" is added to the Administrative Controls:

This program provides controls for Surveillance Frequencies. The program shall ensure that Surveillance Requirements specified in the Technical Specifications

2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION

In the "Final Policy Statement on Technical Specifications Improvements for Nuclear Power Reactors" published in the Federal Register on July 22, 1993 (58 FR 39132), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) addressed the use of Probabilistic Safety Analysis (PSA, currently referred to as Probabilistic Risk Analysis or PRA) in Standard Technical Specifications (STS). In this 1993 FR publication, the Commission states, in part:

The Commission believes that it would be inappropriate at this time to allow requirements which meet one or more of the first three criteria [of 10 CFR 50.36]

to be deleted from Technical Specifications based solely on PSA (Criterion 4).

However, if the results of PSA indicate that Technical Specifications can be relaxed or removed, a deterministic review will be performed.

Additionally, the Commission states in the 1993 Final Policy Statement:

The Commission Policy in this regard is consistent with its Policy Statement on

'Safety Goals for the Operation of Nuclear Power Plants,' 51 FR 30028, published on August 21, 1986. The Policy Statement on Safety Goals states in part, "... probabilistic results should also be reasonably balanced and supported through use of deterministic arguments. In this way, judgments can be made...

about the degree of confidence to be given these [probabilistic] estimates and assumptions. This is a key part of the process for determining the degree of regulatory conservatism that may be warranted for particular decisions. This

- 4

'defense-in-depth' approach is expected to continue to ensure the protection of public health and safety."

The Commission further states in the 1993 publication:

The Commission will continue to use PSA, consistent with its policy on Safety Goals, as a tool in evaluating specific line-item improvements to Technical Specifications, new requirements, and industry proposals for risk-based Technical Specification changes.

Approximately 2 years later, the Commission provided additional detail concerning the use of PRA in the "Final Policy Statement: Use of Probabilistic Risk Assessment Methods in Nuclear Regulatory Activities" published in the Federal Register (FR) (60 FR 42622, August 16, 1995) the NRC addressed the use of PRA. In this FR publication, the Commission's opening statement states, in part:

The Commission believes that an overall policy on the use of PRA methods in nuclear regulatory activities should be established so that the many potential applications of PRA can be implemented in a consistent and predictable manner that would promote regulatory stability and efficiency. In addition, the Commission believes that the use of PRA technology in NRC regulatory activities should be increased to the extent supported by the state-of-the-art in PRA methods and data and in a manner that complements the NRC's deterministic approach.

The following excerpts are taken, in part, from the 1995 Commission Policy Statement:

PRA addresses a broad spectrum of initiating events by assessing the event frequency. Mitigating system reliability is then assessed, including the potential for mUltiple and common-cause failures. The treatment, therefore, goes beyond the single failure requirements in the deterministic approach. The probabilistic approach to regulation is, therefore, considered an extension and enhancement of traditional regulation by considering risk in a more coherent and complete manner.

Therefore, the Commission believes that an overall policy on the use of PRA in nuclear regulatory activities should be established so that the many potential applications of PRA can be implemented in a consistent and predictable manner that promotes regulatory stability and efficiency. This policy statement sets forth the Commission's intention to encourage the use of PRA and to expand the scope of PRA applications in all nuclear regulatory matters to the extent supported by the state-of-the-art in terms of methods and data.

Therefore, the Commission adopts the following policy statement regarding the expanded NRC use of PRA:

(1)

The use of PRA technology should be increased in all regulatory matters to the extent supported by the state-of-the-art in PRA methods and data

- 5 and in a manner that complements the NRC's deterministic approach and supports the NRC's traditional defense-in-depth philosophy.

(2)

PRA and associated analyses (e.g., sensitivity studies, uncertainty analyses, and importance measures) should be used in regulatory matters, where practical within the bounds of the state-of-the-art, to reduce unnecessary conservatism associated with current regulatory requirements, regulatory guides, license commitments, and staff practices. Where appropriate, PRA should be used to support the proposal for additional regulatory requirements in accordance with 10 CFR 50.109 (Backfit Rule). Appropriate procedures for including PRA in the process for should be developed and followed. It is, of course, understood that the intent of this policy is that existing rules and regulations shall be complied with unless these rules and regulations are revised.

(3)

PRA evaluations in support of regulatory decisions should be as realistic as practicable and appropriate supporting data should be publicly available for review.

(4)

The Commission's safety goals for nuclear power plants and subsidiary numerical objectives are to be used with appropriate consideration of uncertainties in making regulatory judgments on the need for proposing and backfitting new generic requirements on nuclear power plant licensees.

In 10 CFR 50.36, the Commission established its regulatory requirements related to the content of TS. Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36, TS are required to include items in the following five specific categories related to station operation: (1) safety limits, limiting safety system settings, and limiting control settings; (2) limiting conditions for operation; (3) surveillance requirements (SRs);

(4) design features; and (5) administrative controls. As stated in 10 CFR 50.36{c){3),

"Surveillance Requirements are requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met." The SRs are required by 10 CFR 50.36{c){3) to reside in TS and will remain in TS. The new TS SFCP will provide the necessary surveillance frequency programmatic controls and is located in the TS Administrative Controls Section (STS Section 5.0).

Changes to surveillance frequencies in the SFCP are made using the methodology contained in NEI 04-10, Rev. 1, including qualitative considerations, results of risk analyses, sensitivity studies and any bounding analyses, and recommended monitoring of SSCs are required to be documented. Changes to frequencies are subject to regulatory review and oversight of the SFCP implementation through the rigorous NRC review of safety related SSC performance provided by the reactor oversight program.

DCPP's SFCP ensures that surveillance requirements specified in the TS are performed at intervals sufficient to assure the above regulatory requirements are met. Existing regulatory requirements, such as 10 CFR 50.65 (maintenance rule) and 10 CFR 50 Appendix B {corrective

- 6 action program), require licensee monitoring of surveillance test failures and implementing corrective actions to address such failures. One of these actions may be to consider increasing the frequency at which a surveillance test is performed. In addition, the SFCP implementation guidance in NEI 04-10, Rev. 1, requires monitoring of the performance of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) for which surveillance frequencies are decreased to assure reduced testing does not adversely impact the SSCs.

This change is analogous with other NRC-approved TS changes in which the surveillance requirements are retained in technical specifications but the related surveillance frequencies are relocated to licensee-controlled documents, such as surveillances performed in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program and the Primary Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program.

Thus, this proposed change complies with 10 CFR 50.36(c)(3) by retaining the requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met and meets the first key safety principle articulated in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.177 (Reference 3) for plant-specific, risk-informed TS changes by complying with current regulations.

Licensees are required by TS to perform surveillance test, calibration, or inspection on specific safety related system equipment such as reactivity control, power distribution, electrical, instrumentation, and others to verify system operability. Surveillance frequencies, currently identified in TS, are based primarily upon deterministic methods such as engineering judgment, operating experience, and manufacturer's recommendations. The licensee's use of NRC-approved PRA methodologies identified in NEI 04-10, Rev. 1, provides a way to establish risk-informed surveillance frequencies that complements the deterministic approach and supports the NRC's traditional defense-in-depth philosophy.

These regulatory requirements, and the monitoring required by NEI 04-10, Rev. 1, ensure that surveillance frequencies are sufficient to assure that the requirements of 10 CFR 50.36 are satisfied and that any performance deficiencies will be identified and appropriate corrective actions taken.

2.1 Optional Changes and Variations PG&E is not proposing any variations or deviations from the methodology for relocating surveillance frequencies from the TSs as described in the NRC staff's safety evaluation for NEI04-10. Because this amendment is adopting the methodology in NEI 04-10, the NRC staff reviewed the conditions of and limitations on the use of the methodology in NEI 04-10 for plant specific licensing applications that are given in Section 4.0 of the safety evaluation issued in the NRC letter dated September 19, 2007, that approved the use of NEI 04-10. The licensee's application and its supplemental letter provides the documentation on the PRA models and technical adequacy with respect to the NRC position in Sections 1.2, 1.3, and 4.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.200 (Ref. 5), which is required by the NRC safety evaluation that approved the use of NEI 04-10 in plant-specific license amendments. Therefore, the licensee's amendment application meets the conditions and limitation specified for the use of NEI 04-10.

3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION

PG&E submitted its proposed change to the TS, which provides for administrative relocation of applicable surveillance frequencies and provides for the addition of the SFCP to the Administrative Controls of the TS. In accordance with NEI 04-10, probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) methods are used, in combination with plant performance data and other considerations, to identify and justify modifications to the surveillance frequencies of equipment at nuclear power plants. nlis is in accordance with guidance provided in Regulatory Guides (RGs) 1.174 and 1.177 (Ref. 3 and 4, respectively) in support of changes to surveillance test intervals. The requirement to perform a surveillance frequency is retained in the TS, and the requirement for a frequency is retained in the TS, it is the specific frequency interval (number) that is relocated to a licensee controlled document. Initial surveillance frequencies were taken from vendor/manufacturer's recommendations, industry codes and standards, engineering judgement, TS completion times (allowed outage times), historical equipment reliability data, and when (under what plant conditions) can the surveillance frequency be performed. Once a surveillance frequency is determined in accordance with the SFCP it will be recorded in a licensee-controlled document, and as far as the operator/maintainer is concerned it is the same as having the actual frequency number in TS.

Figure 1 in NEI 04-10 provides a process flow map for making changes to surveillance frequencies in the SFCP. In approving the Limerick license amendment, six cases/proposals for changing surveillance test intervals (STI) were evaluated (some acceptable for change, others not), thereby testing all the logic paths in NEI-04-10 (see flow chart in NEI-04-10) prior to approval. Exelon's selection was based on the draft NEI 04-10 document which had additional process paths (HSS and LSS) that are not included in the current version. The current process in NEI 04-10 includes three different flow paths to follow depending on how the PRA is modeled, as shown in steps 8, 9, and 10 of Figure 1:

STI SSC Modeled in PRA STI SSC Not Modeled in PRA, but could be STI SSC Modeling is Impractical Consistent with NEI 04-10 and its objective of selecting sufficient STls to demonstrate each of the alternative process paths, PG&E has identified three technical specification surveillance frequencies to demonstrate the frequency change process. The surveillances selected to demonstrate the functionality of the three process paths at DCPP are:

TS Surveillance 3.3.5.2 - Diesel Generator Trip Actuating Device Operational Test (Path 1)

TS Surveillance3.6.3.3 - Containment Isolation Manual Valve Sealed Checklist (Path 2)

TS Surveillance 3.1.2.1 - Verify Measured Core Reactivity (Path 3)

The SFCP reviews the current surveillance frequency bases to determine if the surveillance frequency is amenable to the NEI process. This would include determining if the surveillance frequency can be changed. For instance, the surveillance frequency may have been established as a commitment to the NRC and cannot be changed. It should be noted that no

- 8 surveillance frequencies will be changed as a result of this amendment. The NRC staff concludes that the selected STI candidates, evaluated as part of the pilot process at DCPP, demonstrate the functionality of the three process paths for the frequency change process as proposed in NEI 04-10.

RG 1.177 identifies five key safety principles to be met for risk-informed changes to TS. As noted above, PG&E has not proposed any variations or deviations from the guidance in NEI 04-10. As such, the evaluations provided in NRC SE dated September 19, 2007, for each of these principles as addressed by the industry methodology document (NEI 04-10), are applicable to DCPP. In addition, the NRC staff has provided plant-specific discussions for several of the five key safety principles. The generic and plant-specific evaluations are provided below as DCPP is a pilot application and can be used for future reference:

1.

The proposed change meets the current regulations unless it is explicitly related to a requested exemption or rule change.

10 CFR 50.36(c)(3) provides that TSs will include surveillances which are "requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to assure that necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met." NEI 04-10, Revision 1, provides guidance for relocating the surveillance frequencies from the TSs to a licensee-controlled program by providing a NRC-approved methodology for control of the surveillance frequencies. The surveillances themselves would remain in the TSs, as required by 10 CFR 50.36(c)(3).

This change is consistent with other NRC-approved TS changes in which the surveillance frequencies are relocated to licensee-controlled documents, such as surveillances performed in accordance with the In-Service Testing Program or the Primary Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program. Thus, this proposed change meets the first key safety principle of RG 1.177 by complying with current regulations.

2.

The proposed change is consistent with the defense-in-depth philosophy.

Consistency with the defense-in-depth philosophy is maintained if:

A reasonable balance is preserved among prevention of core damage, prevention of containment failure, and consequence mitigation.

Over-reliance on programmatic activities to compensate for weaknesses in plant design is avoided.

System redundancy, independence, and diversity are preserved commensurate with the expected frequency, consequences of challenges to the system, and uncertainties (e.g., no risk outliers). Because the scope of the proposed methodology is limited to revision of surveillance frequencies, the redundancy, independence, and diversity of plant systems are not impacted.

- 9 Defenses against potential common cause failures (CCFs) are preserved, and the potential for the introduction of new CCF mechanisms is assessed.

Independence of barriers is not degraded.

Defenses against human errors are preserved.

The intent of the General Design Criteria in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, are maintained.

NEI 04-10, Revision 1, uses both the core damage frequency (CDF) and the large early release frequency (LERF) metrics to evaluate the impact of proposed changes to surveillance frequencies. Compliance with the guidance of RG 1.174 and RG 1.177 for changes to CDF and LERF is achieved by evaluation using a comprehensive risk analysis, which assesses the impact of proposed changes including contributions from human errors and CCFs. Defense-in-depth is also included in the methodology explicitly as a qualitative consideration outside of the risk analysis, as is the potential impact on detection of component degradation that could lead to increased likelihood of CCFs. Both the quantitative risk analysis and the qualitative considerations assure a reasonable balance of defense-in-depth is maintained to ensure protection of public health and safety, satisfying the second key safety principle of RG 1.177.

3.

The proposed change maintains sufficient safety margins.

The design, operation, testing methods, and acceptance criteria for SSCs, specified in applicable codes and standards (or alternatives approved for use by the NRC) will continue to be met as described in the plant licensing basis (including the final safety analysis report and bases to TS), since these are not affected by changes to the surveillance frequencies. Similarly, there is no impact to safety analysis acceptance criteria as described in the plant licensing basis.

Thus, safety margins are maintained by the proposed methodology, and the third key safety principle of RG 1.177 is satisfied.

4.

When proposed changes result in an increase in CDF or risk, the increases should be small and consistent with the intent of the Commission's Safety Goal Policy Statement.

RG 1.177 provides a framework for risk evaluation of proposed changes to surveillance frequencies, which requires identification of the risk contribution from impacted surveillances, determination of the risk impact from the change to the proposed surveillance frequency, and performance of sensitivity and uncertainty evaluations. NEI 04-10, Revision 1, satisfies the intent of RG 1.177 requirements for evaluation of the change in risk, and for assuring that such changes are small.

Quality of the PRA.

The quality of the PRA must be compatible with the safety implications of the proposed TS change and the role the PRA plays in justifying the change. The NRC has developed regulatory guidance to address PRA technical adequacy,

- 10 RG 1.200 (Reference 5), which addresses the use of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) RA-Sa-2005, Addenda to ASME RA-S-2002 Standard for Probabilistic Risk Assessment for Nuclear Power Plant Applications (Reference 6), and the NEI peer review process NEI 00-02, "PRA Peer Review Process Guidance" (Reference 7). NEI 04-10, Revision 1, requires an assessment of the PRA models used to support the SFCP against the requirements of RG 1.200 to assure that the PRA models are capable of determining the change in risk due to changes to surveillance frequencies of SSCs, using plant-specific data and models. Capability category II of ASME RA-Sa-2005 is applied as the standard, and any identified deficiencies to those requirements are assessed further in sensitivity studies to determine any impacts to proposed decreases to surveillance frequencies.

In addition, PG&E identified the completion of an industry peer review along with three separate gap assessments conducted for the DCPP PRA, which taken collectively assess the PRA internal events model compared to the applicable requirements of RG 1.200 and the ASME standard for capability category II, as required by NEI 04-10. All significant ("A n and liB" level) findings from the industry peer review have been resolved. The licensee further identified focused scope peer reviews conducted for the human reliability analysis (HRA) portion of the PRA model to address the upgrade implemented.

The findings from the gap assessments and the focused scope peer review of the HRA were provided by the licensee for staff review. The NRC staff reviewed the open items to determine how they might impact this application.

The HRA was found by the gap assessment to not conform to the standard in the areas of maximum credit for recovery in pre-initiator events (element HR-D4),

bases for success criteria for timing analyses (HR-G4), and validation of human action timing (HR-G5). The licensee stated that these issues are planned to be resolved in 2009, and in the interim will be addressed by sensitivity analyses.

The staff accepts this disposition as adequate to address this application.

The licensee's processes for evaluation of data for its PRA do not address element DA-D2 (no applicable generic data) or DA-D7 (eXisting plant experience no longer applicable). The reviewers identified that the current DCPP PRA model does not have these data conditions, and so the elements are not applicable, but still recommended that a process be in place. Since the elements do not apply to the current PRA model, they do not affect this application.

The definition of the human failure events is not sufficient to allow an independent analyst to easily replicate the analyses; the response time assumptions are not always directly traceable to a thermal-hydraulic analysis; procedure steps and manpower availability should be validated; documentation could be improved. The licensee stated that these issues are planned to be resolved in 2009, and in the interim will be addressed by sensitivity analyses.

The staff accepts this disposition as adequate to address this application.

- 11 Based on the evaluation of the DCPP PRA using RG 1.200 and the ASME standard, and the licensee's planned use of sensitivity analyses to address deficiencies in its HRA, the staff determined that the DCPP PRA internal events model satisfied the guidance of RG 1.200, Revision 1, and is acceptable for this application because this level of PRA quality is sufficient to support the evaluation of changes to surveillance frequencies within the SFCP, and is consistent with Regulatory Position 2.3.1 of RG 1.177.

Scope of the PRA.

NEI 04-10 requires evaluation of each proposed surveillance frequency change to determine its potential impact on risk, due to impacts from internal events, fires, seismic, other external events, and from shutdown conditions.

Consideration is made of both CDF and LERF metrics. Where quantitative risk models are unavailable, bounding analyses or other conservative quantitative evaluations are performed. A qualitative screening analysis may be used when the surveillance frequency impact on plant risk can be shown to be negligible or zero.

The DCPP PRA model is a full-scope, at-power model, and is acceptable for this application.

The scope of the PRA model does not include other external events (i.e., high winds, nearby facility accidents), which were found in the screening analyses of the Individual Plant Examination of External Events (IPEEE) to not represent unique site vulnerabilities, nor does the PRA model scope include shutdown conditions. The licensee will use the alternative evaluation methods consistent with NEI 04-10.

Fire PRA Model I'JEI 04-10 provides for the use of fire PRA models, bounding analyses, or other quantitative methods in assessing fire risk impacts for changes to surveillance frequencies. The licensee identified that it intends to use a fire PRA model to support changes made in the SFCP.

The licensee submitted relevant information about its fire PRA model in support of its SFCP. A fire PRA model is currently under development by the licensee to support transitioning to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standard NFPA-805. Portions of this model have been completed and peer reviewed against the American Nuclear Society PRA standard for fire PRA models (Ref. 11). The licensee cited NUREG/CR-6850 (Ref. 12) as the basis for development of most aspects of its fire PRA model.

Seismic PRA Model NEI 04-10 provides for the use of seismic PRA models, seismic margins, bounding analyses, or other quantitative methods in assessing seismic risk impacts for changes to surveillance frequencies. The licensee identified that it intends to use a seismic PRA model to support changes made in the SFCP.

- 12 The licensee submitted relevant information about its seismic PRA model in support of its SFCP. The seismic hazard evaluation uses site-specific seismic hazard levels resolved into six separate seismic initiating events, each with a unique frequency of occurrence. Structure and component fragility analysis provides unique fragility curves, defined by the median ground spectral acceleration capacities and accounting for randomness and uncertainty variables.

Seismic logic analyses of plant system structural and component failures are evaluated using the event tree logic for general transients. Although most nonsafety-related components and systems are assumed to fail during any seismic event, the seismically-induced loss of offsite power is probabilistically evaluated based on the switchyard seismic fragility.

The scope of the DCPP PRA model, and the evaluations of other external events and shutdown conditions, is sufficient to ensure the scope of the risk contribution of each surveillance are properly identified for evaluation, and is consistent with Regulatory Position 2.3.2 of RG 1.177.

PRA Modeling.

NEI 04-10 determines if the SSCs affected by a surveillance are modeled in the PRA. Where the SSC is directly or implicitly modeled, a quantitative evaluation of the risk impact is carried out. The methodology adjusts the failure probability of the impacted SSCs, including any impacted common cause failure modes, based on the proposed change to the surveillance frequency. Where the SSC is not modeled in the PRA, bounding analyses are performed to characterize the impact of the proposed change to surveillance frequency. Potential impacts on the risk analyses due to screening criteria and truncation levels are adequately addressed by the requirements for PRA technical adequacy addressed by RG 1.200, and by sensitivity studies identified in NEI 04-10. Guidance is provided for the quantitative evaluation of the impact of selected testing strategy (Le., staggered testing or sequential testing) consistent with the guidance of NUREG/CR-6141 and NUREG/CR-5497.

The licensee's program conforms to the guidance in NEI 04-10 Rev. 1 and is, therefore, acceptable because PRA modeling is sufficient to ensure an acceptable evaluation of risk due to the change in surveillance frequency, and is consistent with Regulatory Position 2.3.3 of RG 1.177.

Assumptions.

The failure probabilities of SSCs modeled in a PRA include a standby time-related contribution and a cyclic demand-related contribution. NEI 04-10 adjusts the time-related failure contribution of SSCs affected by the proposed change to surveillance frequency. This is consistent with RG 1.177 Section 2.3.3 which permits separation of the failure rate contributions into demand and standby for evaluation of surveillance requirements. If the available data do not support distinguishing between the time-related failures and demand failures, then the change to surveillance frequency is conservatively assumed to impact the total failure probability of the SSC, including both standby and demand contributions. The SSC failure rate (per unit time) is assumed to be unaffected by the change in test frequency, and this is confirmed by the required monitoring

- 13 and feedback implemented after the change in surveillance frequency is implemented.

The process requires consideration of qualitative sources of information with regards to potential impacts of test frequency on SSC performance, including industry and plant-specific operating experience, vendor recommendations, industry standards, and code-specified test intervals. Thus the process is not reliant upon risk analyses as the sole basis for the proposed changes.

The potential beneficial risk impacts of reduced surveillance frequency, including reduced downtime, lesser potential for restoration errors, reduction of potential for test-caused transients, and reduced test-caused wear of equipment, are identified qualitatively, but are conservatively not required to be quantitatively assessed.

The licensee's program conforms to the guidance in NEI 04-10 Rev. 1 and is, therefore, acceptable because it employs reasonable assumptions with regard to extensions of surveillance test intervals, and is consistent with Regulatory Position 2.3.4 of RG 1.177.

Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analyses.

NEI 04-10 requires sensitivity studies to assess the impact of uncertainties from key assumptions of the PRA, uncertainty in the failure probabilities of the affected SSCs, impact to the frequency of initiating events, and of any identified deviations from capability category II of ASME RA-Sb-2005. Where the sensitivity analyses identify a potential impact on the proposed change, revised surveillance frequencies are considered, along with any qualitative considerations that may bear on the results of such sensitivity studies. Required monitoring and feedback of SSC performance once the revised surveillance frequencies are implemented are also used. Thus, NEI 04-10 appropriately considers the possible impact of PRA model uncertainty and sensitivity to key assumptions and model limitations, consistent with Regulatory Position 2.3.5 of RG 1.177.

The licensee's program conforms to the guidance in NEI 04-10 Rev. 1 and is, therefore, acceptable because it appropriately considers the possible impact of PRA model uncertainty and sensitivity to key assumptions and model limitations, consistent with Regulatory Position 2.3.5 of RG 1.177.

Acceptance Guidelines.

NEI 04-10 quantitatively evaluates the change in total risk (including internal and external events contributions) in terms of CDF and LERF for both the individual risk impact of a proposed change in surveillance frequency and the cumulative impact from all individual changes to surveillance frequencies. Each individual change to surveillance frequency must be shown to result in a risk impact below 1E-6 per year for change to CDF, and below 1E-7 per year for change to LERF.

These are consistent with the limits of RG 1.174 for very small changes in risk.

- 14 Where the RG 1.174 limits are not met, the process either considers revised surveillance frequencies which are consistent with RG 1.174, or the process terminates without permitting the proposed changes. Where quantitative results are unavailable to permit comparison to acceptance guidelines, appropriate qualitative analyses are required to demonstrate that the associated risk impact of a proposed change to surveillance frequency is negligible or zero. Otherwise, bounding quantitative analyses are required which demonstrate the risk impact is at least one order of magnitude lower than the RG 1.174 acceptance guidelines for very small changes in risk.

In addition to assessing each individual SSC surveillance frequency change, the cumulative impact of all changes must result in a risk impact below 'I E-5 per year for change to CDF, and below 1E-6 per year for change to LERF, and the total CDF and total LERF must be reasonably shown to be less than 1E-4 per year and 1E-5 per year, respectively. These are consistent with the limits of RG 1.174 for acceptable changes in risk, as referenced by RG 1.177 for changes to surveillance frequencies. The staff interprets this assessment of cumulative risk as a requirement to calculate the change in risk from a baseline model utilizing failure probabilities based on the surveillance frequencies prior to implementation of the SFCP, compared to a revised model with failure probabilities based on changed surveillance frequencies. The staff further notes that NEI 04-10 includes a provision to exclude the contribution to cumulative risk from individual changes to surveillance frequencies associated with small risk increases (less than 5E-8 CDF and 5E-9 LERF) once the baseline PRA models are updated to include the effects of the revised surveillance frequencies.

The quantitative acceptance guidance of RG 1.174 is necessary but not sufficient to accept decreases in surveillance frequencies. The process also considers qualitative information to evaluate the proposed changes to surveillance frequencies, including industry and plant-specific operating experience, vendor recommendations, industry standards, the results of sensitivity studies, and SSC performance data and test history. The final acceptability of the proposed change is based on all of these considerations and not solely on the PRA results compared to numerical acceptance guidelines. Performance monitoring and feedback are also required to assure that lessons learned from past experience are considered.

These items are evaluated by an Integrated Decision-making Panel (IDP) in accordance with NEI04-10. Per NEI 04-10, the IDP is composed of the site Maintenance Rule Expert Panel, supplemented by a Surveillance Test Coordinator, and a Subject Matter Expert.

The licensee's program conforms to the guidance with NEI 04-10 Rev. 1 and is, therefore, acceptable because it provides reasonable acceptance guidelines and methods for evaluating the risk increase of proposed changes to surveillance frequencies, consistent with Regulatory Position 2.4 of RG 1.177.

Therefore, based on the technical adequacy of the licensee's PRA models and on the licensee's conformance to the gUidance of NEI 04-10 Rev. 1, the licensee's proposed change satisfies the

- 15 fourth key safety principle of RG 1.177 by assuring any increase in risk is small consistent with the intent of the Commission's Safety Goal Policy Statement.

5.

The impact of the proposed change should be monitored using performance measurement strategies.

The licensee's proposed change requires application of NEI 04-10 in the SFCP.

NEI 04-10 requires performance monitoring of SSCs whose surveillance frequency has been revised as part of a feedback process to assure that the change in test frequency has not resulted in degradation of equipment performance and operational safety. The monitoring and feedback includes consideration of Maintenance Rule monitoring of equipment performance. In the event of degradation of SSC performance, the surveillance frequency is reassessed in accordance with the methodology, in addition to any corrective actions which may apply as part of the Maintenance Rule requirements.

The licensee's program conforms to the guidance in NEI 04-10 Rev. 1 and is, therefore, acceptable because the performance monitoring and feedback is sufficient to reasonably assure acceptable SSC performance and is consistent with Regulatory Position 3.2 of RG 1.177. Thus, the fifth key safety principle of RG 1.177 is satisfied.

4.0

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's proposed TS changes for relocation of surveillance frequencies to a licensee controlled document, and controlling changes to surveillance frequencies in accordance with a new program, the SFCP, identified in the Administrative Controls of TS. The SFCP references NEI 04-10 Revision 1, which provides a risk-informed methodology using plant-specific risk insights and performance data to revise surveillance frequencies within an SFCP, allowing for licensee control of the surveillance frequencies.

The NRC staff finds that the proposed TS changes and implementation of the methodology of NEI 04-10 Revision 1, as referenced in the Administrative Controls of TS, satisfies the key principles of risk-informed decision making applied to changes to TS as delineated in RG 1.177 and RG 1.174, in that:

The proposed change meets current regulations; The proposed change is consistent with defense-in-depth philosophy; The proposed change maintains sufficient safety margins; Increases in risk resulting from the proposed change are small and consistent with the Commission's Safety Goal Policy Statement; and The impact of the proposed change is monitored with performance measurement strategies.

Based on the above evaluation, the NRC staff concludes the proposed changes meet the technical requirements in the regulations that are discussed in Section 2.0 of this safety evaluation. Based on this, the NRC staff further concludes that the proposed TS changes in the

- 16 proposed amendment meet 10 CFR 50.36 and, therefore, the proposed amendment is acceptable.

5.0 REGULATORY COMMITMENTS In its letter dated October 15, 2007, PG&E committed to the following actions as Regulatory Commitments.

1)

PG&E will conduct another Integrated Decisionmaking Panel (IDP) panel for the NRC to observe, that will review TS Surveillance 3.6.3.3 and discuss the two previously reviewed STls.

2)

PG&E commits to evaluate the impact of future model updates (internal

. model or external model) on the conclusions of the assessments that are performed in support of this application.

3)

The upgraded human reliability analysis was recently subjected to a focused peer review. All the findings of this focused review will be addressed prior to implementation of the proposed TS changes either by modifying the model or treatment of the issue via a sensitivity study.

4)

Three recent limited scope and independent assessments of the DCPP PRA Level 1 and Level 2 PRA models have been performed by leading industry PRA experts (i.e., Gap Analyses) to support several risk informed applications, including the MSPI [Mitigating System Performance Indicators] calculations and DCPP's transition to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 805 Standard. All the findings of these assessments will be addressed prior to implementation of the proposed TS changes and based on the system being subject to change either by modifying the model or treatment of the issue via a sensitivity study.

5)

PG&E will either close all identified RG 1.200 gaps, or will address the gaps through sensitivity studies for the surveillance test interval being evaluated using the I\\lEI 04-10 process and methodology.

6.0 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.

- 17

7.0 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 published in the Federal Register on November 20, 2007 (72 FR 65370). 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.

8.0 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.
