Response to Surveillance capsule questions

Karen, Regarding the first question below:

Q1 - After comparing the 10-16-09 submittal to an earlier submittal, ML0223902830, they also show capsule V at Unit 1 withdrawn in 1986 (6.0 EFPY) at fluence of 1.94 x 1019. The EFPY seems wrong, they only gained 3 EFPY between 1978 and 1986?

The EFPY values in question listed in Table 4.1-12 were historical values from previously submitted reports. As part of performing fluence analyses for license renewal, revised EFPY values were calculated based on the most recent compilation of historical fuel management data. The EFPY value for each removed capsule is presented below. To date, four (4) capsules (T, W, V, and X) have been removed from both SPS Unit 1, and four capsules (X, W, V, and Y) have been removed from SPS Unit 2.

SPS Unit 1 Capsule Identification EFPY Capsule Fluence T

1.1 2.81E18 n/cm2 W

3.5 4.31E18 n/cm2 V

8.2 1.94E19 n/cm2 X

16.3 1.60E19 n/cm2 SPS Unit 2 Capsule Identification EFPY Capsule Fluence X

1.2 2.97E18 n/cm2 W

3.8 6.36E18 n/cm2 V

8.7 1.89E19 n/cm2

Y 20.8 2.73E19 n/cm2 Regarding the second question below:

Q2 - In addition, the earlier submittal shows capsule X at Unit 1 as being withdrawn in 1997, 15.8 EFPY, but with a fluence of 2.42 x 1019 instead of 15.8 EFPY and fluence of 1.60 x 1019 that is shown in Oct. 26, 2009 submittal.

Response to Q2 Per BAW-2324, April 1998, the fluence on capsule X at Unit 1 (when withdrawn and tested) was 1.599E19 n/cm2. (This rounds to 1.60E19 n/cm2). The UFSAR and earlier correspondence included the projected fluence prior to the withdrawal and testing of capsule X of 2.42E19 n/cm2.
