United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment II to Serial: RNP-RA/09-0007 Page 1 of 11 H. B. ROBINSON STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NO. 2 SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO NRC GENERIC LETTER 2008-01, "MANAGING GAS ACCUMULATION IN EMERGENCY CORE COOLING, DECAY HEAT REMOVAL, AND CONTAINMENT SPRAY SYSTEMS" In the nine-month response to Generic Letter (GL) 2008-01, "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems," Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. (PEC), H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2, committed to providing a 90-day supplemental response following the completion of Refueling Outage 25 (RO-25). Based on discussion with the NRC Project Manager, it was determined that an additional week was amenable for submitting the requested information. The following provides the supplemental information:
- 1) Updated summary of locations potentially susceptible to gas accumulation based on containment walkdowns completed in RO-25.
System walkdowns have been completed for the previously inaccessible sections of piping. In addition to physical walkdowns, the system walkdowns employed the use of a laser scanning technique, which supported the development of three-dimensional models.
The walkdowns and modeling were performed to confirm the location and orientation of system vents, and to identify areas potentially vulnerable to gas accumulation.
Table 1, "Locations Susceptible to Gas Accumulation," provides a listing of susceptible locations based on the design reviews and walkdowns completed prior to and during RO-
- 25. Ultrasonic testing (UT) was performed at each of the 67 identified locations and the results of the UT are provided in Table 1. (Note that the October 14, 2008, letter identified 69 susceptible locations. Two of those locations were subsequently determined to be part of the Chemical and Volume Control System, which is not within the scope of Generic Letter 2008-01.)
- 2) Resolution for void detection and control at the identified locations potentially susceptible to gas accumulation, including the location of new vent valves installed or planned for installation.
The voids found before and during RO-25 were determined to not impact the safety function of the associated systems. The voids were evaluated in accordance with the Corrective Action Program (CAP). Evaluations considered and utilized, as appropriate, gas transport analysis, Owners Group pump suction void fraction acceptance criteria, Net Positive Suction Head requirements, Reactor Coolant System void acceptance criteria, structural design capabilities, and relief valve setpoints.
United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment II to Serial: RNP-RA/09-0007 Page 2 of 11 The locations of vent valves installed during RO-25 are described in Table 1. One additional vent valve is currently planned for installation during the next refueling outage, as described in Table 1. Seven voids remained in the affected systems at the end of RO-25 that were determined to be acceptable. These voids are listed in Table 2, "Post Fill and Vent RO As Left Voids." These void locations will be ultrasonically tested on a quarterly basis as part of the new program for void detection. Alternative techniques for monitoring these voids on a longer-term basis may be evaluated to help minimize the radiological impacts associated with UT of these locations.
- 3) A description of the new program for void detection.
HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, will implement a program for the detection and control of voids in the subject systems by April 30, 2009. UT will be used for the identification of voids and for quantifying void volumes. Table 1 is divided into two sections. The first section provides those locations that will be tested on a quarterly frequency due to their relatively higher potential for gas accumulation. The locations in the second section of Table 1 were tested for GL 2008-01. The testing frequencies for the locations shown in Table 1 are subject to change based on the results of evaluation in accordance with program requirements.
- 4) Listing of new procedures or procedure changes to be made for filling and venting.
A listing of new procedures and procedure changes for filling and venting is provided in Table 3, "List of New Procedures/Changes in Procedures for Filling/Venting, Operations, Testing, or Maintenance." The procedure revisions are currently scheduled to be completed by April 30, 2009.
- 5) Listing of procedure changes to be made to operations, testing, or maintenance procedures to prevent, detect, or mitigate gas intrusion.
A listing of operations, testing, or maintenance procedures requiring changes to prevent, detect, or mitigate gas intrusion is provided in Table 3. The procedure revisions are currently scheduled to be completed by April 30, 2009.
Following completion of evaluations, walkdowns, and testing, PEC has concluded that the SI, RHR, and CS Systems are operable, as required by Technical Specifications, are in conformance with commitments to the applicable General Design Criteria (GDC), as stated in the UFSAR, and are in conformance with commitments to 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, V, XI, XVI, and XVII.

United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment II to Serial: RNP-RA/09-0007 Page 1 of 11 H. B. ROBINSON STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NO. 2 SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO NRC GENERIC LETTER 2008-01, "MANAGING GAS ACCUMULATION IN EMERGENCY CORE COOLING, DECAY HEAT REMOVAL, AND CONTAINMENT SPRAY SYSTEMS" In the nine-month response to Generic Letter (GL) 2008-01, "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems," Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. (PEC), H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2, committed to providing a 90-day supplemental response following the completion of Refueling Outage 25 (RO-25). Based on discussion with the NRC Project Manager, it was determined that an additional week was amenable for submitting the requested information. The following provides the supplemental information:
- 1) Updated summary of locations potentially susceptible to gas accumulation based on containment walkdowns completed in RO-25.
System walkdowns have been completed for the previously inaccessible sections of piping. In addition to physical walkdowns, the system walkdowns employed the use of a laser scanning technique, which supported the development of three-dimensional models.
The walkdowns and modeling were performed to confirm the location and orientation of system vents, and to identify areas potentially vulnerable to gas accumulation.
Table 1, "Locations Susceptible to Gas Accumulation," provides a listing of susceptible locations based on the design reviews and walkdowns completed prior to and during RO-
- 25. Ultrasonic testing (UT) was performed at each of the 67 identified locations and the results of the UT are provided in Table 1. (Note that the October 14, 2008, letter identified 69 susceptible locations. Two of those locations were subsequently determined to be part of the Chemical and Volume Control System, which is not within the scope of Generic Letter 2008-01.)
- 2) Resolution for void detection and control at the identified locations potentially susceptible to gas accumulation, including the location of new vent valves installed or planned for installation.
The voids found before and during RO-25 were determined to not impact the safety function of the associated systems. The voids were evaluated in accordance with the Corrective Action Program (CAP). Evaluations considered and utilized, as appropriate, gas transport analysis, Owners Group pump suction void fraction acceptance criteria, Net Positive Suction Head requirements, Reactor Coolant System void acceptance criteria, structural design capabilities, and relief valve setpoints.
United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment II to Serial: RNP-RA/09-0007 Page 2 of 11 The locations of vent valves installed during RO-25 are described in Table 1. One additional vent valve is currently planned for installation during the next refueling outage, as described in Table 1. Seven voids remained in the affected systems at the end of RO-25 that were determined to be acceptable. These voids are listed in Table 2, "Post Fill and Vent RO As Left Voids." These void locations will be ultrasonically tested on a quarterly basis as part of the new program for void detection. Alternative techniques for monitoring these voids on a longer-term basis may be evaluated to help minimize the radiological impacts associated with UT of these locations.
- 3) A description of the new program for void detection.
HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, will implement a program for the detection and control of voids in the subject systems by April 30, 2009. UT will be used for the identification of voids and for quantifying void volumes. Table 1 is divided into two sections. The first section provides those locations that will be tested on a quarterly frequency due to their relatively higher potential for gas accumulation. The locations in the second section of Table 1 were tested for GL 2008-01. The testing frequencies for the locations shown in Table 1 are subject to change based on the results of evaluation in accordance with program requirements.
- 4) Listing of new procedures or procedure changes to be made for filling and venting.
A listing of new procedures and procedure changes for filling and venting is provided in Table 3, "List of New Procedures/Changes in Procedures for Filling/Venting, Operations, Testing, or Maintenance." The procedure revisions are currently scheduled to be completed by April 30, 2009.
- 5) Listing of procedure changes to be made to operations, testing, or maintenance procedures to prevent, detect, or mitigate gas intrusion.
A listing of operations, testing, or maintenance procedures requiring changes to prevent, detect, or mitigate gas intrusion is provided in Table 3. The procedure revisions are currently scheduled to be completed by April 30, 2009.
Following completion of evaluations, walkdowns, and testing, PEC has concluded that the SI, RHR, and CS Systems are operable, as required by Technical Specifications, are in conformance with commitments to the applicable General Design Criteria (GDC), as stated in the UFSAR, and are in conformance with commitments to 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, V, XI, XVI, and XVII.
