Point Beach - need supplemental information for AST acceptance review (TAC ME0219, ME0220)

Fritzie:

Following is what our reviewer Nageswara Karipineni wrote. He requested a conference call with you on Thursday (1/29), but I am on leave 1/29 - 2/3. Since both I and Justine Poole will not be around, you probably should contact Lois James (301-415-3306) if this phone call is to take place during this period. If it can wait unti 2/4, both Justine and I will be back.

There are two issues that we want the licensee to address in regards to the Point Beach AST:

The licensee is crediting the Control Room Ventilation System (VNCR) and the Primary Auxiliary Building Ventilation (VNPAB) System for implementing the AST. However, the licnesee submittal did not make any mention of adding these systems to the scope of the Maintenance Rule program in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65, and to the scope of the license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.37(b).

The above equipment should also be added to the Technical Specifications (TS) with appropriate Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) and Surveillance Requirements (SR) because the equipment is required for safe operation of the facility as required by 10 CFR 50.36(d)(2)(ii)( C), Criteria 3, "A structure, system, or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a design-basis accident or transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier."
