UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 November 20, 2008 Mr. Larry Meyer Site Vice President Point Beach Nuclear Plant 6610 Nuclear Road Two Rivers, WI 54241
SUBJECT:
POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - EVALUATION OF THE REQUEST FOR AN EXTENSION OF ENFORCEMENT DISCRETION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERIM ENFORCEMENT POLICY FOR FIRE PROTECTION ISSUES DURING TRANSITION TO NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION STANDARD NFPA 805 (TAC NOS. MD9646 and MD9647)
Dear Mr. Meyer:
On September 10, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) published in the Federal Register (73 FR 52705) a revision to its Interim Enforcement Policy regarding enforcement discretion for certain fire protection issues, allowing licensees the option to request an extended enforcement discretion period for submittal of a license amendment request (lAR) if they are pursuing transition to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Section 50.48( c),
"National Fire Protection Association Standard NFPA 805."
This revision states that an additional period of enforcement discretion may be granted on a case-by-case basis, if a licensee has made substantial progress in its transition effort. This additional period of enforcement discretion, if granted, would end 6 months after the date of the safety evaluation approving the second pilot plant LAR. These changes are in accordance with COMSECY-08-0022, as approved by the Commission on August 19, 2008. The enforcement discretion will continue in place, without interruption, until NRC disposition of the site's LAR to transition to NFPA 805.
By letter dated September 11, 2008, FPl Energy Point Beach llC, (the licensee) requested that the period of fire protection enforcement discretion for Point Beach Nuclear Plant (PBNP)
Units 1 and 2 be extended until 6 months after the NRC's approval of both pilot plant lARs to transition to the National Fire Protection Association's risk-informed, performance-based standard for light water reactors (NFPA 805). Per the new interim fire protection enforcement policy outlined above, licensees may request an extension of their evaluation period beyond the 3 years of enforcement discretion previously provided.
To be granted this extension, a licensee must:
- 1. Compile a list of all fire protection related non-compliances and the related compensatory measures for those non-compliances.
- 2. Document that each Operator Manual Action put in place as a compensatory measure is feasible and reliable, in accordance with the guidance in Regulatory Issue Summary 2005-07, "Compensatory Measures to Satisfy the Fire Protection Program Requirements."
L. Meyer -2
- 3. Submit a description of the physical modifications performed to address existing risk-significant fire protection non-compliances.
- 4. Submit a status report of the transition, including a schedule of milestones, for completing the fire probabilistic risk assessment (PRA). The status report should describe the progress made in the following areas:
- classical fire protection transition
- nuclear safety performance criteria transition
- non-power operation transitions
- fire PRA development The lists of non-compliances, compensatory measures, and operator manual action feasibility determinations should be maintained on-site and up to date for inspector review.
The NRC staff reviewed the licensee's request, and has determined that the licensee has made substantial enough progress in their transition to NFPA 805 to grant the additional enforcement discretion. Accordingly, the enforcement discretion period for PBNP Units 1 and 2 is hereby extended until 6 months after the date of the safety evaluation approving the second pilot plant LAR.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Jack Cushing, the Project Manager for the PBNP, at (301) 415-1424.
Sincerely,
~ ~
