TELECON WITH ENTERGY ON APRIL 16, 2009, ON CHEMICAL EFFECTS TESTING FOR GENERIC LETTER 2004-02 (TAC NOS. MC4689 AND MC4690)
On April 16, 2009, a telephone call was held between the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff and representatives of Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (Entergy or the licensee).
The purpose of the call was to discuss the licensee's plans to conduct chemical effects testing to support analyses required by NRC Generic Letter 2004-02, "Potentiallmpact of Debris Blockage on Emergency Recirculation During Design Basis Accidents at Pressurized-Water Reactors."
The analyses are being performed for Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 2 and 3 (IP2 and IP3). See Enclosure 1 for a list of participants on the call, and Enclosure 2 for the handout provided by Entergy. The NRC staff generally agreed with the test protocol, but stressed two points: (1) that additional details (e.g., post-Ioss-of-coolant-accident pH range) would be needed for the NRC staff to assess the conservative nature of the IP test, and (2) the NRC staff's comments about the vendor's proposed test approach was unique to IP and that other licensee's tests would be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
Please direct any inquiries to me at (301) 415-2901.
