SUBJECT:

License Renewal Application - Supplement to SAMA Reanalysis Using Alternate Meteorological Tower Data Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 2 and 3 Docket Nos. 50-247 and 50-286 License Nos. DPR-26 and DPR-64

REFERENCE:

1. Entergy Nuclear Operations Inc. Letter NL-09-165, "SAMA Using Alternate Meteorological Tower Data" dated December 11, 2009.

Dear Sir or Madam:

In Reference 1 above, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc (Entergy) provided results of a SAMA reanalysis using alternate meteorological data.

The purpose of this letter is to provide additional, clarifying information related to the SAMA reanalysis to answer questions raised during a teleconference between Entergy and NRC on January 7, 2010.

1) Summaries of the revised implementation cost estimates for IP2 SAMAs 17 and 40 and IP3 SAMAs 17, 20, 40, and 50 are attached. The estimates are similar to the estimate provided in response to request for additional information 51.
2) With the revised population dose and offsite economic costs resulting from the SAMA reanalysis described in the referenced letter, the total present dollar-value equivalent benefit associated with completely eliminating severe accidents caused by internal events is about $4.5 million for IP2 and $5.1 million for IP3. Use of a multiplier of 3.8 for IP2 and 5.5 for IP3 to account for C9

NL-10-013 Docket Nos. 50-247 and 50-286 Page 2 of 2 external events increases the value to $17 million for IP2 and $28 million for IP3 and represents the dollar value benefit associated with completely eliminating the risk of severe accidents caused by all internal and external events at IP2 and IP3, respectively.

3) The revised SAMA implementation cost estimates presented in the referenced letter do not include replacement power costs.

The revised SAMA implementation cost estimates do not include a markup to account for inflation. However, the revised estimates were developed using Entergy's standard process for development of conceptual level project estimates utilizing spreadsheets containing 2009 rates for material, labor, insurance, fees, etc. Since the original implementation estimates were developed prior to 2009, the new estimates inherently account for inflation since the time of the earlier estimates.

There are no new commitments identified in this submittal. If you have any questions, or require additional information, please contact Mr. Robert Walpole at 914-734-6710.

Sincerely, FD/mb

1) Change licensing basis, which may require Nuclear Regulatory Commission involvement.
2) Modify or provide new floor loading calculation,seismic analysis, and reactorbuilding volume calculation.
3) Revise procedures and training.
4) Install and test the new barrier.
5) Change various documents, i.e. Technical Specification Basis, Final Safety Analysis Report, system descriptions, design basis documents, preventative maintenance tasks.
6) Change safety analysis calculations.

Attachment 1 NL-10-013 Docket Nos. 50-247 and 50-286 Page 2 of 6 IP2 SAMA 40 Implementation Cost Estimate The SAMA improvement would be to install bypasses around the existing atmosphericdump valves to depressurize the reactorcoolant system. This would allow successful low pressure emergency core cooling system injection following a small loss of coolant accident and high pressure safety injection failure. This modification would requireextensive design work to create the modification package. The associateddesign calculationswould include seismic analysis, loading analysis, setpointcalculations, environmental qualification(EQ) calculations,and possible associated analysis for piping interferences.

Attachment 1 NL-10-013 Docket Nos. 50-247 and 50-286 Page 3 of 6 IP3 SAMA 17 Implementation Cost Estimate The SAMA improvement would be to increase secondary side pressure capacity to reduce the frequency of steam generatortube rupture events and decrease the likelihood of relief valves lifting and subsequently failing to reseat.

It was assumed based on engineeringjudgment that the nuclearsteam supply system vendor would not be able to qualify the existing components to a high enough pressure ratingto meet the intent of the SAMA. Therefore, the steam generators,piping from the feedwater regulating valves through the steam generatorsand up to the main steam isolation valves, feedwater regulatorsand main steam isolation valves would have to be replaced with upgraded components. The associatedinstrumentationwould also have to be upgraded.

The associateddesign calculations would include seismic analysis,loading analysis,setpoint calculations,EQ calculations, and possible associated analysis for piping interferences.

Specific issues to be addressedfor this modification include the following.

This modification would provide additionalindicationsof valve position by monitoring the valve position with one of two different instruments, which would improve the reliabilityor availabilityof the indication. This modification would require extensive design work to create the modification package. The associateddesign calculationswould include seismic analysis, loading analysis, loop errorcalculations, setpoint calculations, EQ calculations,and possible associatedanalysis for safe shutdown.

Attachment 1 NL-10-013 Docket Nos. 50-247 and 50-286 Page 5 of 6 IP3 SAMA 40 Implementation Cost Estimate The SAMA improvement would be to provide automatic nitrogen backup to the steam generatoratmosphericdump valves. For each of the four atmospheric dump valves, the modification would use existing nitrogen at the panel and would tie into the instrument air supply using a regulatorand check valves in both the nitrogen and IA lines to prevent back feed. A local pressure gage, low pressureswitch to the nitrogen line and an alarm in control room would also be required.
