Subject:

WATTS BAR NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS I AND 2 MULTI -UNIT OPERATOR TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION PROGRAM AND REQUEST FOR REVIEW

Reference:

Letter from NRC to WA, Confirmation of Requested Initial Operator Examinations for Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, dated November 6, 2009 The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is carrying out activities to complete construction of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN), Unit 2. WA projects that WBN, Unit 2 initial nuclear fuel load may occur as early as December 2011, with initial criticality as early as January 2012. In preparation forWBN, Unit 2 fuel load and initial operation, TVA is implementing a plan to ensure that a sufficient number of licensed operators are trained and in place to conduct licensed activities on both Unit 1 and Unit 2.

WAs plan to have a sufficient number of licensed operators available for dual unit operation includes two discrete approaches. The first approach applies to operators currently licensed on WBN, Unit 1. As part of this approach, WA will provide training associated with the operation of WBN, Unit 2 to current WBN, Unit 1 licensed operators during portions of the Licensed Operator Requalification (LOR) training cycle in 2011. After completion of specified portions of the LOR training cycle, WA intends to submit applications for multi-unit operator licenses, including requests for waivers from written and operating exam requirements pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47. WA AUG 31 2.DO prThted on recycled paper

US. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 August 27, 2010 currently plans to submit approximately 54 of these applications and requests for waivers beginning in August 2011.

As a second approach, WA is currently training several operator license classes and preparing the candidates to take the initial written exams and operating exams. Future initial exams are currently scheduled for June 2011 and October 2011 as discussed in the referenced letter from NRC to WA. These candidates are being trained and will be licensed to operate WBN, Unit 1. Subsequent to completing the WBN, Unit 1 examination and licensing process, the operators will receive training dedicated to the differences between WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2. Upon completion of this training, TVA will submit applications for multi-unit licenses and request waivers from additional written and operating examinations similar to the approach used for current WBN, Unit 1 operators described above. Submittal of applications for multi-unit licenses for this group of approximately 33 initial license candidates is expected to begin in August 2011. The combination of the initial 54 dual-unit licensed operators and the subsequent 33 dual-unit licensed operators will ensure a sufficient number of licensed operators to meet the required shift staffing.

The process for requesting waivers for the written and operating examinations is described in Section ES-204 of NUREG-1 021, Revision 9, Operator Licensing Examination for Power Reactors. Specifically, Section ES-204, Item C.1 .c states:

Facility licensees having units designed by the same nuclear steam supply system vendor and operated at approximately the same power level may request dual licensing for their operators. Similarly, if the units are nearly identical, the facility licensee may request a waiver of the examination requirements for the second and subsequent units.

In either case, the facility licensee must justify to the NRC that the differences between the units are not so significant that they could affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently. Further, the facility licensee must submit for NRC review the details of the training and certification program. The analysis and summary of the differences on which the applicants must be trained will include as applicable:

- Facility design and systems relevant to control room personnel

- Technical specifications

- Procedures (primarily abnormal and emergency operating)

- Control room design and instrument location

- Administrative procedures related to conduct of operations at a multi-unit site (e.g., shift manning and response to accident and fires)

- The expected method of rotating personnel between units and the refamiliarization training to be conducted before an operator assumes responsibility on a new unit

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 3 August 27, 2010 And from Item D.3.b, of Section ES-204:

With regard to the examination requirements for identical second or subsequent units at the same site, NRR may waive any or all requirements for a written and operating test if the staff finds that the applicant meets the criteria specified in 10 CFR 55.47, as noted in Item D.2 above.

As part of its plan to submit waivers from the requirements for written and operating tests for the groups of operators described above, WA has performed a detailed analysis of the differences between WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 and concluded that the units are nearly identical as discussed in NUREG-1021 and that the differences will not affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently. A summary of TVAs conclusions is provided in Enclosure 1. The detailed analysis of unit differences is included as Enclosure 2 to this letter.

Enclosure 2 also includes the details of the training and certification program that WA intends to implement to ensure that current and future reactor operators and senior reactor operators are competent to be licensed on both WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2.

To facilitate timely review of multi-unit operator license applications and requests for waivers from exam requirements on the schedule discussed above, WA is providing Enclosures 1 and 2 for NRC review. In order for WA to proceed with the plan describe above, we request that the NRC complete its review of the enclosed training and certification program, i.e., the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, by November 5, 2010.

There are no new regulatory commitments in this letter. If you have any questions, please contact me at (423) 751-3628.

Summary Conclusions Regarding Nearly Identical Design and Operation of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, Units I and 2 INTRODUCTION The process for submitting requests for waivers from the requirement for operator license applicants to take written and operating tests is described in Section ES-204 of NUREG-1 021, Revision 9, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, Specifically, Section ES-204, Item C.1.c states:

Facility licensees having units designed by the same nuclear steam supply system vendor and operated at approximately the same power level may request dual licensing for their operators. Similarly, if the units are nearly identical, the facility licensee may request a waiver of the examination requirements for the second and subsequent units.

In either case, the facility licensee must justify to the NRC that the differences between the units are not so significant that they could affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently. Further, the facility licensee must submit for NRC review the details of the training and certification program. The analysis and summary of the differences on which the applicants must be trained will include as applicable:

- Facility design and systems relevant to control room personnel

- Technical specifications

- Procedures (primarily abnormal and emergency operating)

- Control room design and instrument location

- Administrative procedures related to conduct of operations at a multi-unit site (e.g.,

shift manning and response to accident and fires)

- The expected method of rotating personnel between units and the refamiliarization training to be conducted before an operator assumes responsibility on a new unit And Item D.3.b of Section ES-204 states:

With regard to the examination requirements for identical second or subsequent units at the same site, NRR may waive any or all requirements for a written and operating test if the staff finds that the applicant meets the criteria specified in 10 CFR 55.47, as noted in Item D.2 above.

TVA has conducted a review of the differences that will exist between Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Unit 1 and Unit 2 consistent with the six aspects from Section ES-204 of NUREG-1 021, Revision 9, listed above. A detailed itemization of unit differences is catalogued in a report entitled Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010.

The differences that will exist between WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 at the time of Unit 2 startup and during the initial operation of WBN, Unit 2 can be characterized as having one of two distinctly different driving factors. The majority of the itemized unit differences result from the separate schedule that each facility is under to implement planned modifications. That is, TVA routinely considers implementation of modifications to both units at its multi-unit sites. In carrying out those modifications, TVA establishes separate implementation schedules for each El-i

unit. The separate schedules take into account factors such as the refueling outage schedule for each unit and the resource limitations for the entities that implement the modifications. In general, but not exclusively, TVA implements modifications to the units in a staggered fashion in sequential refueling outages. These unit differences are assessed as temporary in nature and are typical of the manner in which modification induced unit differences are managed at multi-unit sites across the industry.

A second set of unit differences can be considered long term or in some cases permanent in nature. Some of these differences stem from the recognition that significant advances in technology have occurred since the licensing and startup of WBN, Unit 1 that will provide a significant benefit to TVA. For these limited number of modifications, such as installation of the WINCISE fixed in-core probes on WBN, Unit 2, WA has concluded that installation during completion of WBN, Unit 2 is warranted; however, WA has not yet concluded that the replacement of the WBN, Unit 1 movable in-core probes is warranted. Similarly, WA has replaced the original D-3 steam generators in WBN, Unit 1 with 68 AXP model steam generators. TVAs decision about future replacement of WBN, Unit 2 steam generators will be strongly influenced by the long term reliability and performance of the D-3 models which were installed during earlier phases of construction at WBN, Unit 2. Thus, differences between the units associated with different model steam generators will remain for an unspecified period of time. TVA assesses that unit differences at multi-unit sites related to the timing of highly capital intensive modifications is consistent with operation of multi-unit sites across the industry.

TVA examined the nature and individual impact of all of the WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 differences catalogued in the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August, 2010. In addition, WA considered the collective impact of the unit differences, both temporary and long-term. In both cases, WA assessed whether the differences could affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently.

WAs assessment of the significance of the differences between the units for each of the six elements identified in Section ES-204 of NUREG-1 021 is as follows:

Facility Design and Systems Relevant to Control Room Personnel The differences between WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 with regard to facility design and systems relevant to control room personnel are described in Section 2.2.1 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010.

A number of the facility design differences that will exist between the units are associated with the staggered implantation of several major modifications and are considered temporary in nature. These modifications are planned for installation on WBN, Unit 2 as part of the Unit 2 completion activities. Implementation of these modifications on WBN, Unit 1 is scheduled for specific future Unit 1 outages.

Prominent among control room design differences are those associated with installation of a Digital Control System (DCS) for systems that provide key safety and operational functions.

The DCS modification forWBN, Unit 1 for those systems identified in Section 2.2.1 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010 is scheduled for the planned October 2012 WBN, Unit 1 refueling outage.

El -2

Certain other unit differences regarding facility design are expected to be in place for a longer term. Examples of these include steam generator and turbine differences and the use of fixed in-core probes (WBN, Unit 2) instead of movable in-core probes (WBN, Unit 1).

TVA has assessed the impact of each of the individual control room differences discussed in Section 2.2.1 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010 and the collective impact of those differences. TVA assessed that the temporary differences are consistent with the number and nature of differences between multi-unit sites throughout the industry subject to sequential modification. TVA has similarly assessed the impact of the limited number of design differences that will exist for a longer term. TVA concludes that the number and nature of these are typical for multi-unit site throughout the industry and are consistent with a conclusion that the units are nearly identical. WA concludes that the differences in control room design, both temporary and long term, will not affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently.

Technical Specifications As discussed in Section 2.2.2 and Attachment 2 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010, WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 have separate Technical Specifications (TS) and Technical Requirements Manual (TRM). TVA used the WBN, Unit 1 TS and TRM to develop the proposed WBN, Unit 2 TS and TRM. The numbers, setpoints, and parameters provided have been validated through the design phase of the construction completion project. All Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) setpoints are identical; therefore TS related setpoints will be identical between the units. Final verification will be provided as part of the as-built phase of construction completion of WBN, Unit 2.

The technical specification differences are associated with a limited number of plant specific design differences that will exist once both units are in operation. In addition, several of the TS differences described in the report are associated with planned WBN, Unit 1 TS changes that TVA will make after completion of WBN, Unit 2 licensing thus further reducing the limited number of TS differences.

TVA has assessed that the number of TS differences are very limited in number and are associated with design differences that will be addressed to operators during unit difference training. TVA expects operators to verify compliance with the TS using the TS specifically established for each unit.

Based on the very limited number of TS differences and the fact that a number of them are minor changes to notes and references in the TS, WA has assessed that individually and collectively, the TS for WBN, Units 1 and 2 are nearly identical and that the differences will not affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently.

Procedures (Primarily Abnormal and Emergency Operating)

TVA has reviewed the WBN, Unit 1 abnormal and emergency procedures against the intended structure and content of the WBN, Unit 2 procedures.

El -3

The WBN, Unit 2 Emergency Operating Instructions (EOIs) will be developed to the same revision level and the exact format as the suite of WBN, Unit 1 EOls currently in use today. The EOls are symptom-based procedures and there is no change in logic for implementation as a result of any differences in design and control. Not all of the setpoint calculations pertaining to EOl actions have been completed at this time. As remaining setpoint data is received, any differences will be rolled into the scheduled operator training. Based on calculations already completed, it is not anticipated these setpoint differences will be significant. Unit specific EOls will be developed to prevent human errors related to combining Unit procedure steps.

The WBN, Unit 2 Abnormal Operating Instructions (AOls) will be developed to the same revision level and two-column format as the suite of AOIs utilized to operate WBN, Unit 1. A numbering system will be in place to allow for Unit specific AOls, where needed, to prevent human errors related to combining Unit procedure steps. The majority of the AOls have been drafted and the primary differences were related to DCS. These differences are minor and result in fewer operator actions associated with instrument failures which makes the AOls less complicated to implement. Entry conditions and symptoms described in the AOls are the same for WBN, Unit 2 as for WBN, Unit 1.

Based on this review and the intended approach for developing EOIs and AOls, TVA concluded that, as it pertains to procedures, WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 will be nearly identical and that any differences will not affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently.

Control Room Design and Instrument Location TVA has thoroughly reviewed the control room design and instrument locations as described in Section 2.2.4 and Attachment 1 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010. The control room design forWBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 main control boards are rotated images of each other and maintains very similar left-right relationships between controls of similar systems for the two units. A number of the control room differences that will exist between the units are associated with the staggered implementation of several major modifications. These modifications are planned for installation on WBN, Unit 2 as part of the WBN, Unit 2 completion activities. Implementation of these modifications on WBN, Unit 1 is scheduled for specific future WBN, Unit 1 outages.

Prominent among control room design differences are those associated with installation of a DCS for systems that provide key safety and operational functions. The DCS modification for WBN, Unit 1 for those systems identified in Section 2.2.4 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010 is scheduled for the planned October 2012 WBN, Unit 1 refueling outage.

Certain other unit differences regarding operating controls are expected to be in place for a longer term. The design differences including control system differences are annotated in of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010 as being either T Temporary (associated with the sequential implementation of modifications between the units) or L Long Term (for those differences where modifications that would resolve the differences are unscheduled or indeterminate in time).

TVA has assessed the impact of each of the individual control room differences discussed in Section 2.2.4 and Attachment 1 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010 and the collective impact of those differences. TVA assessed that the temporary differences are consistent with the number and nature of differences between multi-unit sites throughout the industry subject to sequential modification considerations. TVA has assessed that the impact of these transient differences is readily managed through training such as that presented in Section 3, Training and Qualification Plan of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010.

TVA has similarly assessed the impact of the limited number of control room design differences that will exist for a longer term. TVA concludes that the number and nature of these are typical for multi-unit site throughout the industry and are consistent with a conclusion that the units are nearly identical. TVA concludes that the differences in control room design, both temporary and long term, will not affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently.

Operational Characteristics TVA examined differences in design that will affect the operational characteristics of WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2. These are described in more detail in Section 2.2.5 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010. Some of the operational characteristics differences such as those associated with differences between an initial unburned core on WBN, Unit 2 and a mixed burn core on WBN, Unit 1 will be temporary in nature and will diminish as WBN, Unit 2 achieves multiple refueling cycles of operation. Other operating characteristic differences, such as those associated with steam generator, turbine and moisture separator reheater design differences, will be minor in nature and will be addressed by proceduralized actions.

TVA has assessed that the operating characteristic differences between WBN, Unit 1 and WBN, Unit 2 are very limited in number and are associated with design differences that will be addressed to operators during unit difference training and via procedural controls. TVA expects operators to comply with operating procedures and operating procedures will be established to safely and reliably operate each system. TVA has assessed that individually and collectively the operating characteristics for Units 1 and 2 are nearly identical and that the differences will not affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently.

Administrative Procedures Related to Conduct of Operations for a Multi-Unit Site The changes to administrative controls and procedures that TVA will implement to operate WBN as a two unit site are discussed in Section 2.2.6 of the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010. These changes will be implemented to ensure compliance with requirements associated with dual unit operation and to ensure safe and efficient dual unit operation (e.g., Operations personnel should not be shifted from one WBN unit to another unit without sufficient time for the individual to become familiar with its conditions). As such, these administrative procedure changes will not represent differences between the units. WA concludes that the administrative procedures related to conduct of multi-unit operation will not affect the operators ability to safely operate each unit.

El -5

Summary TVA considered the standard of nearly identical as it pertains to the ability of operators to operate multiple units safely and competently. In that context, TVA assessed that WBN, Units 1 and 2 could be considered nearly identical if the impact of individual differences between the units were consistent with the types and number of differences which are routinely managed by TVA at its other multi-unit sites and managed by nuclear utilities across the industry.

After considering the differences discussed above and in the Watts Bar Unit Differences and Training Plan Report, August 2010, TVA concludes that WBN Units 1 and 2 will be nearly identical and that differences between the units will not affect the operators ability to safely and competently operate each unit.

With this conclusion, TVA believes that requests for waivers from the requirement to take written and operating exams by applicants for Multi-Unit licenses at Watts Bar can be justified consistent with the guidance in NUREG-1 021, Revision 9 and the requirements of 10 CFR 55.47.

1. Executive Summary This report meets the criteria spelled out in NUREG 1021, section ES 204 which defines utility requests for dual unit licenses for the licensed operators of the facility. Part of that request is to justify why the utility believes the two units are nearly identical and to describe the training plan for operators to inform them of any existing unit differences.

In 2007 Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) decided to recommence construction on Watts Bar unit 2. During the lead up to this decision and continuing into construction activities, TVA management put in place expectations that the design and construction groups would maintain fidelity between Unit 1 and Unit 2. This expectation was enforced through memorandum, procedures and processes, which required all parties to ensure that Unit 2 would match Unit 1 to every extent possible.

This report provides justification as to why TVA considers the two units at Watts Bar nearly identical and identifies a comprehensive training plan for currently licensed operators and future licensed operators. It also provides assurance that the simulator maintains fidelity with its plant-referenced unit. By showing that this guidance is satisfied, TVA requests NRC review and approval of the following training plan. Based on this approval, TVA plans to submit dual unit license applications and waivers of NRC administered license examinations for Unit 2 where appropriate.

1.1 Regulatory Consideration This plan provides the outline and approach to obtaining dual-unit operator licenses to support the loading of fuel at the Watts Bar Unit 2 nuclear station.

This is a two-step process as outlined in NUREG 1021, ES-204 (see Section 4.0 for the full text), which states, in part, that:

1. Facilities may request dual licensing for their operators.
2. Facilities may request a waiver of the examination requirement for the second unit.

In either case the facility must justify that the units are nearly identical including:

  • facility design and systems
  • technical specifications
  • procedures (mainly abnormal and emergency procedures)
  • control room design and instrument location
  • operational characteristics
  • administrative procedures related to conduct of operations for a multi-unit site
  • expected method of rotating personnel between units and re-familiarization training to be conducted before assuming duty on the new unit E2-3

1.2 Unit 2 Differences Overview The design of Unit 2 was conducted with the constraint of maintaining unit differences at a minimum. Accordingly, every effort was made to minimize differences between the units when installing new components on Unit 2, due to obsolescence of those components on Unit 1. With Unit 2 design freeze recently established, a thorough analysis of the unit differences has shown that the units remain nearly identical. Some of the differences are listed here and are discussed in more detail in Section 2.0.

Table 1 provides an executive summary of the main differences between Units 1 and 2.

Table 1: Unit 1 / Unit 2 Differences Overview Steam Unit 1 has the 68AXP Replacement Steam Generator. Unit 2 has the D-3 Generators Original Steam Generator.

(Photos not to scale)

Replacement SG Original SO Main The Unit 2 turbine has been updated to improve efficiency and power Turbine output and is more tolerant to condenser backpressure.

This turbine has no impulse chamber. A tap and pressure transmitter will be added to each of the four inlet lines from the control valves. For the purpose of input to rod control, steam dumps and turbine runback, the control signal will be the median of four signals.

Moisture The secondary side moisture separator/reheaters for Unit 2 are an Separator upgraded design to enhance secondary side efficiency.

Reheaters E2-4

Reactor Unit 1 uses the RVLIS ICCM-86 system.

Vessel Unit 2 will use the Common Qualified (Common Q) Post Accident Level Monitoring System (PAMS).

Indication System (RVLIS) and Inadequate Core Cooling Monitor (ICCM)

E2-5

Digital Unit 2 will have digital controls for several systems including Feedwater Control level control, BorationlDilution Flow, Hotwell Level, Steam Generator system Blowdown, Rod Control Inputs, Pressurizer Pressure, Pressurizer Level, (DCS) Charging Flow, Letdown Flow, Main Feed Water Pump Flow Control, Volume Control Tank Level, Residual Heat Removal flow, Steam Generator Power Operated Relief Valves (PORVs), and Steam Dumps.

The Unit 2 digital control system will have increased fault tolerance compared to the existing Unit 1 analog controls.

Unit 1 will receive an upgrade from the current analog controls to digital controls for Feedwater, Pressurizer level, Pressurizer pressure and boration controls in a refueling outage scheduled for October 2012.

The simulator (Unit 1 reference) will be upgraded to digital controls in January 2012. The Unit 1 plant-referenced simulator will be modified to include the Unit 1 digital controls almost concurrently with the planned Unit 2 fuel load and will lead the actual Unit 1 installation by approximately 10 months. This will provide for a full scope simulation environment for the Foxboro Intelligent Automation (I/A) digital controls during the power ascension-testing phase of the Unit 2 project.

The digital control feature that enables the operator to enter control system inputs via a computer terminal will be electronically blocked from Unit 2. Manipulation of equipment will only be permitted from the control panels.

Reactor Unit 1 will have a steady state fuel load.

Fuel Unit 2 will have a new core.

Incore Unit 1 uses Westinghouse movable probes.

Probes Unit 2 will use the Westinghouse In-Core Information Surveillance &

Engineering (WINCISE) system (Incore fixed sensors).

1.3 Training Plan Summary

  • Approximately 124 hours0.00144 days <br />0.0344 hours <br />2.050265e-4 weeks <br />4.7182e-5 months <br /> of training are planned for Unit 2 Fuel Load readiness and the differences between the units. The Licensed Operator Requalification (LOR) training will be conducted on common systems, unit differences, Unit 2 procedures and Technical Specifications. The training will consist of classroom lectures, vendor supplied equipment/mockups, structured in-plant tours, training on the Sequoyah simulator, completion ofjob familiarization guides and completion of qualification cards (formal On-the-Job-Training and Task Performance-Evaluation. OJT/TPE). This training will take place from September 2010 through September 2011 prior to the September 19, 2011 license application submittal for dual unit licenses for operators with a license to operate Unit 1. Additional training will continue through Unit 2 hot functional testing, fuel load, initial criticality and start up testing, but will not be credited towards the request for dual unit licenses, since it occurs after the license application submittal.
  • Watts Bar staff, with NRC approval of waiver of NRC administered license exams, will conduct operator testing and certification on Unit 2.
  • The Sequoyah simulator will be used for part of the training and evaluation on digital controls prior to Unit 2 fuel load.
  • The Watts Bar simulator has the capability of using temporary computer models for the original (D-3) steam generators, and for the initial core load which will be used for training the operators prior to Unit 2 fuel load.
  • The Watts Bar simulator will be upgraded to DCS in January 2012. This will precede the Unit 1 plant upgrade to DCS by 10 months. The timing of the simulator upgrade allows for a continuation of training on digital controls during Unit 2 start-up testing, power-ascension and prior to implementation of DCS on Unit 1 plant. This will provide additional reinforcement and proficiency on the DCS system.

Note: Initial license classes are numbered with the year and month the class takes the NRC exani, i.e., class 11-06 takes the NRC exam in June of2Ol 1.

  • Initial License Training (ILl) Classes 11-06 and 11-10 are scheduled for their NRC Examinations in June 2011 and October 2011, respectively which are prior to Unit 2 fuel load in December 2011. Both classes will train and examine on the Unit 1 referenced simulator and their license applications will request a Unit 1 License. After receipt of their NRC licenses, these individuals will complete the LOR Unit Differences Training and examination described in section 3.0 of this report. Request for dual unit licenses will come in a second license application submittal, along with request for a waiver to NRC administered exams.
  • ILT Class 12-1 1 will take their NRC Examination in November 2012, this is after the Unit 1 reference simulator is upgraded to digital controls in January 2012 and after Unit 1 Main Control Room (MCR) is upgraded in October 2012. These students will be trained on Unit 1 and Unit 2 differences, during the course of E2-7

their ILT class. This class will use the DCS upgraded simulator. This class will submit License Applications for both a Unit 1 and Unit 2 License.

2. Watts Bar Analysis of Unit 1 and Unit 2 Differences TVA suspended construction of Watts Bar Nuclear (WBN) Unit 2 in 1985, placed the unit in construction layup status, and formally deferred WBN Unit 2 in 2000. In 2007 TVA decided to recommence construction on Watts Bar Unit 2. During the lead up to this decision and continuing into construction activities, TVA management put in place expectations that the design and construction groups would maintain fidelity between Unit 1 and Unit 2. This expectation was enforced through memorandum, procedures and processes, which required all parties to ensure that Unit 2 would match Unit 1 to every extent possible. This is demonstrated in numerous documents where the intent to maintain fidelity between units is spelled out in communications internal to TVA and also in communications to the NRC.

In a letter dated April 3, 2007 (L44 070403 001) TVA asked for feedback from the NRC on certain assumptions TVA was making in the time leading up to a final decision to recommence construction on Unit 2. TVA describes one assumption as being able to resume construction and . . .use the existing Part 50 construction permit and the largely completed and well documented operating license review framework. This is the first key regulatory assumption. This first key regulatory assumption is grounded on the fact that WBN 2 is of the same vintage and would be virtually identical to WBN Unit 1.

From a regulatory perspective, this means that the WBN Unit 2 licensing and design basis would be essentially the same as what presently exists for WBN Unit 1.

In a letter from the NRC to TVA dated July 25, 2007 (Staff Reguirements-SECY 0096-Possible Reactivation of Construction and Licensing Activities for the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 2), the NRC stated:

The Commission supports a licensing review approach that employs the current licensing basis for Unit las the reference basis for the review and licensing of Unit 2.

In a letter from TVA to the NRC dated August 3, 2007, titled Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Unit 2 Reactivation of Construction Activities the following excerpts demonstrate TVAs intent to keep the two units similar:

As background, on October 4, 1976, TVA submitted a dual unit WBN Operating License (OL) for both WBN Unit 1 and Unit 2. WBN Unit 1 received a full power OL on February 7, 1996. WBN Unit 2 which was placed on deferred status would be operationally the same as Unit 1 at startup. TVA believes that, from regulatory, safety and plant operational perspectives, significant benefit is gained from aligning the licensing and design bases of WBN Units 1 and 2 to the fullest extent practicable. The commission recognized these benefits in Reference 2.

(Reference 2 in this letter is referring to the NRC letter discussed above dated July 25, 2007)

E2-9

In furtherance of this objective, TVA will complete WBN Unit 2 in compliance with applicable regulations promulgated prior to and after the issuance of the WBN Unit I OL. In addition, the WBN Unit 2 licensing and design bases will incorporate modifications made to WBN Unit 1, and those modifications currently captured in the WBN Unit 1 five-year plan. This alignment of the WBN Unit I and 2 licensing and design bases will ensure that there is operational fidelity between units and at the same time demonstrate and ensure that WBN Unit 2 complies with applicable NRC regulatory requirements.

The Watts Bar Detailed Scoping, Estimating, and Planning (DSEP) study dated 06/18/07, provided guidance for the continuation of construction of Watts Bar Unit 2 as follows:

The Engineering Baseline and Modification organizations will prepare design criteria, design calculations, procurement and installation specifications, develop drawings and specifications, and issue procurement documents that provide detailed design for construction as required for completing WBN2. While Engineering work will be performed to the A/Es procedures, calculations and DCNs will conform to TVAs Engineering Change Control and Plant Modification procedures with an emphasis on ensuring fidelity with Unit 1.

(bolded emphasis was added)

The Watts Bar Unit 1 and 2 Memorandum of Understanding, which defines the division of responsibilities between unit 1 and unit 2, under the Design Engineering Interface, states:

One of the goals of the Unit 2 completion is to maintain as much consistency in configuration and processes with unit 1 as possible. Unit 2 will develop requirements and a means for tracking differences that exist or are created between the two units. Part of the Unit 2 scoping process will be to evaluate the as-constructed Unit 1 configuration against the Unit 2 as-designed configuration and Unit 2 walkdown results to determine what physical changes are required to Unit 2 to maintain configuration consistency. Differences between the two units will be reviewed and agreed upon by the two units.

As an example of the management processes in place during Unit 2 construction, the construction contractor had an Engineering procedure (25402-3DP-GO4G-00081) which required any differences between the units to be documented and reviewed by Operations, Maintenance and Engineering organizations. Part of this review process also included analysis of the differences for inclusion into the operator differences training.

Unit 1 modifications were reviewed and a Unit 2 scope work list was developed from this review. For each Corrective Action Program (CAP) and Special Program (SP) a plan for Unit 2 was developed to implement the changes associated with each program based upon a review of Problem Evaluation Reports (PERs), Nuclear Central Office Tracking items (NCOs), Category Drawings (CATDs), and Unit 1 corrective actions. Engineering E2-1O

Design Control Requests (EDCRs) were issued for the CAPs and SPs based on this review.

Due to equipment obsolescence some new designs for Unit 2 were needed (Foxboro DCS, Unit 2 Annunciator, Rosemount Transmitters, etc.).

Unit 2 designs were evaluated for any unit differences with Unit 1. These differences were reviewed and approved by TVA operations, maintenance, and engineering groups.

As documented in the examples given above, during design and construction activities, every effort was made to minimize differences between the units. When installing new components on Unit 2 due to obsolescence of those components on Unit 1 similar controller type and sizes were used, wherever possible, to keep the control and indication locations the same on the Unit 2 Main Control Panels.

2.1 Neariy Identical Summary This section will provide a brief overview of how the two units at Watts Bar have been determined to be nearly identical, as the terminology in NUREG 1021 states. More detail follows in section 2.2.

  • The units consist of identical nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) vendor designs and secondary plant designs. Unit 2 will include the original D-3 steam generators and Unit I has installed 68AXP replacement steam generators.
  • Initially, the units will have different core operating characteristics with Unit 1 being in a normal first/second/third bum assembly fuel cycle. Unit 2 will consist of all first burn assemblies. The actual operator impact is not significant.
  • The technical specifications and structure of the operating procedures developed for Unit 2 will be nearly identical to those already in use for Unit 1.
  • Reactor vessel level and cooling monitoring systems on Unit 1 uses the RVLIS (ICCM-86) system and Unit 2 will have the Common Q system. The Common Q system has slightly different mimics but the same information is displayed.
  • There will be analog vs. digital controls with Unit 2 leading Unit 1 in the upgrade to digital control systems. At fuel load in December 2011, Unit 2 will utilize a Foxboro Intelligent Automation (hA) model digital control system (DCS).

Approximately 10 months later, Unit 1 will have the same system installed but with a limited scope of controllers compared to Unit 2. Digital modification of one unit followed by a second unit at a dual-unit station is a typical industry practice and Watts Bar will follow this traditional approach.

E2-11

2.2 Nearly Identical Justification This section includes the analysis and the nearly identical justification performed by Watts Bar to meet NUREG 1021, ES-204 guidance as listed below and will follow the format of the bulleted items listed in the NUREG.

2.2.1 Facility Design and Systems relevant to Control Room Personnel 2.2.1.a The WBN Unit 1 steam generators were replaced. The Unit 2 generators remain the original D-3 model, which has some operational differences setpoints on Unit 2 the same as Unit 1.

2.2.1 .b The Unit 2 turbine has been updated to improve efficiency and power output and is more tolerant to condenser backpressure. This turbine has no impulse chamber. Therefore a tap and pressure transmitter will be added to each of the four inlet lines from the control valves. For the purpose of input to rod control, steam dumps and turbine runback, the control signal will be the median of four signals. This algorithm is performed in Foxboro I/A. The Permissive interlocks and Anticipated Transient Without SCRAM (ATWS) Mitigating System Actuation Circuitry (AMSAC) will still be generated from a single transmitter.

Analog Electro-Hydraulic (AEH) control will use Generator Megawatts rather than impulse signal when in Impulse Pressure Control (IMP IN).

2.2.1 .c The secondary side moisture separator/reheaters for Unit 2 are an upgraded design to enhance secondary side efficiency.

2.2.1 .d The Inadequate Core Cooling Monitoring System (ICCM) 86 for Unit 1 will be replaced with the Common Q platform for Unit 2. Parameters present in the ICCM 86 will be in the Common Q PAMS including Core Exit Thermocouples, RVLIS, and Core Saturation Monitor.

2.2.1 .e There will be analog vs. digital controls with Unit 2 leading Unit 1 in the upgrade to digital control systems. At fuel load in December 2011, Unit 2 will utilize a Foxboro Intelligent Automation (I/A) model digital control system (DCS). The primary impact of the DCS change will be reduced susceptibility to transients caused by an instrument failure. For instance; 2.2.1.e.1 A loss of a single Vital Inverter will no longer cause a unit trip. This is due to the fault tolerance in the DCS feedwater system and the pressurizer control system.

E2-12

2.2.1 .e.2 The Main Feedwater (MFW) Controls digital upgrade modification has been designed to incorporate all functions of the existing system, in addition to providing enhanced monitoring and control methods and diagnostic capabilities.

Operator response to abnormal Steam Generator (SG)

Level, MFW Flow or MFW Pump Speed remains the same, except that with the new DCS and new field input signals, additional redundancy is provided and potentially faulty instrumentation is automatically bypassed. The new DCS provides monitoring of all of the Feedwater Control System parameters on the redundant video display monitors installed on the operators desk. In addition, the DCS provides a redundant link to the existing plant Integrated Computer System (ICS) to provide Feedwater information to the operator.

2.2.1 .e.3 Pressurizer control will no longer require manual operator action on loss of a transmitter. This is due to transmitter redundancy logic.

2.2.1 .e.4 Boric Acid Control will be incorporated into I/A. The primary operational difference, other than the controllers are changed to I/A, is that the Unit 2 system displays will have digital displays and can be programmed for a desired ppm boron concentration (vs. only gpm on Unit 1) 2.2.1.f The incore probes on Unit 2 will be WINCISE fixed probes as opposed to the Unit I Westinghouse movable. The WINCISE probes will also house the Core Exit Thermocouples. This will impact the indicated temperature slightly but will not impact post accident temperatures or Emergency Operating Instructions (EOI) setpoints.

2.2.1 .g Unit 2 will eliminate the Post Accident Sampling System (PASS) and physically remove the associated equipment. Unit 1 has abandoned the PASS system in place.

2.2.1.h There will be only one Hydrogen Analyzer for Unit 2 and it will be non-safety related.

2.2.1 .i The hydrogen recombiners on Unit 1 have been removed from Technical Specifications. The handswitches for Unit 1 are still on the control room panel 1 -M- 10. The hydrogen recombiners on Unit 2 will be abandoned in place and the handswitches in the control room have been removed from panel 2-M-10.

E2-13

2.2.2 Technical Specifications Watts Bar Unit I and Unit 2 have separate Technical Specification(s) (TS) and Technical Requirements Manual (TRM). TVA used the WBN Unit 1 TS and TRM to develop the proposed WBN Unit 2 TS and TRM. The numbers, setpoints, and parameters provided have been validated through the design phase of the construction completion project. All Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) setpoints are identical; therefore TS related setpoints will be identical between the units. Final verification will be provided as part of the as-built phase of construction completion of WBN Unit 2.

Watts Bar has thoroughly reviewed the technical specifications differences and determined that they are nearly identical. This is based on minimal differences between the Unit I and Unit 2 technical specifications. Attachment 2 provides a detailed discussion for each of the identified technical specification differences.

2.2.3 Procedures (Abnormal and Emergency Procedures)

Watts Bar has thoroughly reviewed the Unit 1 abnormal and emergency procedures against the intended structure and content of the Unit 2 procedures and has determined that they are nearly identical.

The Unit 2 Emergency Operating Instructions (EOIs) will be developed to the same revision level and the exact format as the suite of Unit 1 EOIs currently in use today. The EOIs are symptom-based procedures and there is no change in logic for implementation as a result of any differences in design and control. Not all of the setpoint calculations pertaining to EOI actions have been completed at this time. As remaining setpoint data is received, any differences will be rolled into the scheduled operator training. Based on calculations already completed, it is not anticipated these setpoint differences will be significant. Unit specific EOIs will be developed to prevent human errors related to combining Unit procedure steps.

The Unit 2 Abnornial Operating Instructions (AOIs) will be developed to the same revision level and two-column format as the suite of AOIs utilized to operate Unit 1. A numbering system will be in place to allow for Unit specific AOIs, where needed, to prevent human errors related to combining Unit procedure steps. The majority of the AOIs have been drafted and the primary differences were related to DCS. These differences are minor, and result in fewer operator actions associated with instrument failures, making the AOIs less complicated to implement. Entry conditions and symptoms described in the AOIs are the same for Unit 2 as for Unit 1.

E2-14

2.2.4 Control Room Design and Instrument Location Watts Bar has thoroughly reviewed the control room design and instrument locations and determined that they are nearly identical.

The Unit 2 Main Control Board layout is a rotated image of the Unit 1 Main Control Boards. On panels M-l through M-6, the left-right relationship for controls and indications is nearly identical.

The control room design and instrument locations differences are mainly attributed to DCS components that are functionally the same as their corresponding Unit I components with minimal changes in their arrangement and appearance.

The new controllers use digital pushbuttons for Auto/Manual selection and raise/lower functions that send a signal through the DCS. The previous analog controllers used a dial for setpoint adjustment, and a toggle lever to control the raise/lower and manual functions. These signals were sent through the control loops directly.

The Manual / Auto hand control stations controller boxes do not have the electronics or active components to perform any automatic control functions. They provide process and setpoint information indication, and provide an interface point for the operator to take manual control of the device, and/or to adjust the setpoint or the output to the device.

The actual controls exist in the DCS processors. The size, shape, color, and legend for the meters and pushbuttons on the controller faceplates are consistent with the existing controllers on Unit 1. The orientation of the meter scale is in the horizontal position, and the movement of the indicator needle along the scale is consistent with other existing meters. The increase (>>) and decrease (<<)pushbuttons are logically positioned on the face plate with the increase push button on the right side and the decrease push button on the left side, which is consistent with direction of movement expectations. The push buttons are equipped with back light LEDs, which illuminate to indicate position status.

Additionally, based on the improved functionality and automation of the DCS, obsolete switches were not needed and were removed. The following provides an overview of the identified control room design and instrument location differences. Attachment 1 provides additional details.

2.2.4.a Main Control Board Panel 2-M-1 Auxiliary Power 2.2.4.a.l Main Control Room panel 2-M-l has an ICS display monitor 2-MON-47-120. This monitor duplicates the functionality of obsolete recorders 2-TR I and 2-TR 2. On Unit 1 these recorders (1 -TR 1 and 1 -TR-47-2) were abandoned and the inputs to these recorders were provided to the plant computer system (ICS).

E2-15

2.2.4.b Main Control Board Panel 2-M-2 Turbine Generator Controls 2.2.4.b.1 Hotwell level controllers 2-LIC-2-3 and 2-LIC-2-9 and Raw Cooling Water Supply controllers 2-TIC-24-48, and 2-TIC-24-69 will be Foxboro I/A type controllers, while on Unit 1 these controllers are GEMAC type controllers.

2.2.4.c Main Control Board Panel 2-M-3 Feedwater and Condensate 2.2.4.c.1 Hand switch 2-HS-3-45 is a 4-position switch to warm the main feedwater lines through forward and back flush operations. The Unit 1 steam generators were changed, which eliminated the need for back flush operations: 1-HS-3-45 is a two-position switch, without the back flush operation mode. Status light box 2-XX-3-235 retains additional lights related to back flushing operations on the steam generators.

2.2.4.c.2 Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS) bias controllers 2-LIC-3-231, 2-LIC-3-232, 2-LIC-3-233, and 2-LIC-3-234 are eliminated from panel 2-M-3, while they remain on Unit 1. On Unit 1, a single channel of NIS power is used to determine the setpoint for each loop. On Unit 2, the Foxboro I/A control system will select the second highest of the four channels of NIS power.

2.2.4.c.3 The following controllers are replaced with Foxboro I/A type controllers on 2-M-3:

  • 2-FIC-3 -70, -84, and -208 (Feedwater Pump Flow Controllers)
  • 2-PC-46-20, 2-SIC-46-20A and -20B (MFPT Speed Controllers) 2.2.4.d Main Control Board Panel 2-M-4, Reactor Controls E2-16

2.2.4.d.l Steam Generator Blow Down hand-switches 2-HS-l-7/181, 14/182, 25/183 and 32/184 and the indicating lights for these switches are oriented in different configuration than on Unit 1. On Unit 1, these hand-switches and their associated indicating lights are arranged in a row. On Unit

2. these hand-switches and their associated indicating lights are arranged with two switches in one row and with the other two switches mounted directly above. This relocation was necessary due to the increased mounting area needed to install four Foxboro I/A controllers, located adjacent to the Steam Generator Blow Down hand-switches.

2.2.4.d.2 The following controllers are replaced with Foxboro I/A type controllers on 2-M-4:

  • 2-PIC-1-33 (Steam Dump Pressure Controller)
  • 2-PIC-68-340A, -340B, and -340D (Pressurizer Pressure Spray and Master Controllers)
  • 2-LIC-68-339 (Charging Flow/Pressure Level Controller) 2.2.4.d.3 Transfer switches XS-l-3D, 1OD, -2lD, and 28D (Steam Generator 1-4 Main Steam Header Flow), and XS-3-35D, -

48D, 90D, and -103D (Steam Generator 1-4 Feedwater Inlet Flow) will not be installed on Unit 2 because these switch functions are automatically selected by the Foxboro I/A control system.

2.2.4.d.4 Core Exit Temperature recorder 2-TR-94-1O1, switch 2-XS-68-1O1, and RVLIS indicator 2-XI-68-100 will not be installed on 2-M-4. The new COMMON Q display 2-MON-68-100 will perform these functions for Unit 2.

2.2.4.d.5 Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) motor driven pump discharge pressure controllers 2-PDIC-3 -1 22A and 2-PDIC-3 -1 32A (Auxiliary Feedwater Pumps A-A and B-B Discharge Pressure Controllers) located on panel 2-M-4 have been replaced with Foxboro SPEC 200 controllers. These controllers perform the same function as the components used in Unit 1. On Unit 1 these components are GEMAC controllers. Unit 1 does use SPEC 200 on the level control valves so the operation is familiar to the operators.

E2-17

2.2.4.d.6 Reactor Vessel Head Vent Throttle Valve controllers 2-HIC-68-396 and 2-HTC-68-397 have been replaced with Foxboro SPEC 200 controllers. These controllers perform the same function as the Westinghouse controllers used in Unit 1.

2.2.4.e Main Control Board Panel 2-M-5, Reactor Coolant System 2.2.4.e. 1 The following controllers are replaced with Foxboro I/A type controllers on 2-M-5:

  • 2-HIC-62-56A (Excess Letdown Heat Exchanger Flow Controller)
  • 2-HIC-62-93A. (Charging Header Flow Controller) 2.2.4.e.2 Pressurizer level control (LIC-68-339): On Unit 1, there is a selector switch (XS-68-339E) to select the level transmitter used as input. On Unit 2, a similar switch will be provided. The Unit 2 switch will have an additional position, auto, which will allow the software to use a median select. On Unit 1, there is a second selector switch (XS-68-339B) that selects the transmitter signal going to the recorder; this switch is eliminated on Unit 2 and the signal used for control will go to the recorder.

2.2.4.e.3 Pressurizer pressure control (PIC-68-340): On Unit 1, there is a selector switch (XS-68-340D) to select the pressure transmitter used as input. On Unit 2, a similar switch will be provided. The Unit 2 switch will have an additional position, auto, which will allow the software to use a median select. On Unit 1. there is a second selector switch (XS-68-340B) that selects the transmitter signal going to the recorder. This switch is eliminated on Unit 2, and the signal used for control will go to the recorder.

2.2.4.e.4 Main Control Board Panel 2-M-6 Engineered Safeguards (2-M-6 Right Half) (2-M-6 Left Half) 2.2.4.e.5 The Cold Leg Accumulators group of indicators (LI 129, -119, -109, -99, -89, -81, -82, and -60 and P1-63-128, -

126, -108, -106, -88, 86, -61, and -61) are located below the new Common Q driver RVLIS ICCM monitor (2-MON-68-110) on panel 2-M-6. On Unit, 1 these indicators are located above RVLIS display (I -XI 110) on 1 -M-6.

This was done to fit the new 15-inch Common Q display.

E2-18

2.2.4.e.6 Incore flux temperature recorder TR 102 is not installed on panel 2-M-6. Common Q will pick up the data points.

The RVLIS display XI-68-1 10 and its keypad XS-68-1 11 on panel 1-M-6 are not needed for panel 2-M-6, since their functionality will be handled through Common Q monitor 2-MON-68-1 10. 2-MON-68-1 10 on panel 2-M-6 replaces the functions supported by XI-68-1 10, XS-68-1 11, and TR 94-102 on 1-M-6.

2.2.4.e.7 Boric Acid blending system (Foxboro I/A): Functionally similar batch counters with digital displays will replace the batch counters. Only two displays will be included, as it was determined that a third counter at the bottom is not used. The primary water flow controllers setpoint will display in gpm. The boric acid flow controller will have an indicator that will indicate if the displayed setpoint is in gpm or ppm. Ppm will be used for the automatic makeup mode; gpm will be used for the other modes.

2.2.4.e.8 The following controllers are replaced with Foxboro I/A type controllers on 2-M-6:

  • 2-FC-62-139 and -142 (Boric Acid and Primary Water Batch Counters)
  • 2-FQ-62-139 and -142 (Boric Acid and Primary Water Blender Controllers)
  • 2-HIC-62-78A (Letdown Heat Exchanger Outlet Temperature Controller)
  • 2-HIC-62-81A (Letdown Pressure Controller)
  • 2-HIC-62-237 (Boric Acid Tank B Recirculation Controller)
  • 2-LIC-62-130A (Volume Control Tank Level Controller)

E2-19

2.2.4.f Main Control Board Panel 2-M-1O Temperature Monitoring 2.2.4.f.1 One of the Hydrogen Analyzers is being eliminated.

2.2.4.g Main Control Board Panel 2-M-1 1 Spare (Generator Core Condition Monitor Unit 1) 2.2.4.g.1 The Hydrogen Purity Meter will be eliminated and placed on ICS.

2.2.4.h Main Control Board Panel O-M-12 (Common Panel) 2.2.4.h.I The following Radiation Monitors replaced with Digital Units

  • 2- RM-90-002 Personal Access Area Monitor (Personnel Airlock)

E2-20

2.2.4.j Main Control Board Panel 2-M-1 8 Westinghouse Incore Instrumentation 2.2.4.j.1 The movable Incore Probes have been replaced with WINCISE and removed from 2-M-18.

2.2.4.k Main Control Board Panel 2-M-30 Post Accident and SG (Radiation)

Monitoring 2.2.4.k. 1 The following Radiation Monitors replaced with Digital Units

  • 2-RM-90-255 Condenser Vacuum Exhaust Low Range
  • 2-RM-90-256 Condenser Vacuum Exhaust High Range
  • 2-RM-90-271 Upper Cntmt High Range
  • 2-RM-90-272 Upper Cntmt High Range
  • 2-RM-90-273 Lower Cntmt High Range
  • 2-RM-90-274 Lower Cntmt High Range
  • 2-RM-90-424 Main Steam Line Post Accident Monitor 2.2.4.1 Other Foxboro I/A Control System Changes (NSSS/BOP) 2.2.4.1.1 Operator workstations with flat panel displays, keyboards, and mice will be provided in the MCR. The operator can view real-time data and trends from these workstations.

2.2.4.1.2 The new system will provide alarm outputs to the annunciator system identical to alarms in Unit 1. The new system will provide two new alarms to the annunciator:

  • DCS System Trouble which alerts the operator that a hardware failure has occurred and does not immediately affect operability (there is a redundant system in place and functional).
  • DCS Controller in Manual which indicates that a failure has occurred and requires that a loop be forced to Manual.

E2-21

2.2.4.rn Auxiliary Control Room Panels 2-L-I1A/B and L-10 2.2.4.m. I Corresponding controllers on the ACR panels will be changed out to include the same type of Foxboro I/A &

Spec 200 controllers that are used on the Main Control Room.

2.2.4.m.2 Switches on Unit 2 L-1 lA/B panels are located in different locations than the Unit 1 Counterparts.

2.2.5 Operational Characteristics 2.2.5.a Unit 2 Reactor Core Unit 2 will start up with a clean core and without Tritium Producing Burnable Absorbers (TPBARs). Initially, the units will have different core operating characteristics: Unit 1 in a normal first/second/third burn assembly fuel cycle, Unit 2 with all first burn assemblies.

2.2.5.b Unit 2 Turbine Update The Unit 2 turbine has been updated to improve efficiency and power output and is more tolerant to condenser backpressure. This turbine has no impulse chamber. A tap and pressure transmitter will be added to each of the four inlet lines from the control valves.

For the purpose of input to rod control, steam dumps and turbine runback, the control signal will be the median of four signals. This algorithm is performed in Foxboro I/A.

The Permissive interlocks and AMSAC will still be generated from a single transmitter.

AEH will use Generator MW, rather than impulse signal, when in IMP IN.

2.2.5.c Unit 2 Steam Generator Response and Preheat Operations Unit 2 will include the original D-3 steam generators and Unit 1 has installed 68AXP replacement steam generators.

Unit 1 Steam Generators have a larger heat transfer area (20,000 ft 2 more) and a heat transfer performance characteristic of 28.8 MW/F. The Unit 2 Steam generator has a characteristic of 22.81 MW/F. The Unit 1 Heat transfer coefficient is slightly less than that of Unit 2, however, the higher tube volume and more surface area results in a higher Steam pressure and temperature at the same load.

The differences in steam generator design result in slightly different response characteristics. The Unit 1 Steam Generators have a higher recirculation ratio, resulting E2-22

in greater indicated level changes in response to transient/upset conditions. This has been tempered to some extent by increasing the span of the level instrumentation. The Unit 2 Steam Generator indicated level response is slightly slower. This slight difference in steam generator operations and response is similar to that experienced at other two unit sites after upgrading their steam generators. These upgrades are typically done at different times on opposite units, resulting in the two units having different steam generators for some period of time.

The Unit 1 Steam Generators use a forward flush to warm the Main FW lines to the steam generators, but no longer require a back flush. The Unit 2 Steam Generators require a back flush for warming the Main FW lines to the steam generators. This is accomplished by using an additional position added to the Unit 2 switch that controls the forward flush.

2.2.5.d Unit 2 Digital Control System Upgrade There will be analog vs. digital controls with Unit 2 leading Unit 1 in the upgrade to digital control systems. At fuel load in December 2011, Unit 2 will utilize a Foxboro Intelligent Automation (I/A) model digital control system (DCS). Approximately 10 months later, Unit I will have the same DCS system installed for Feedwater, Pressurizer level, Pressurizer pressure and Boration controls.

Digital modification of one unit followed by a second unit at a dual-unit station is a typical industry practice and Watts Bar will follow this traditional approach.

Operator workstations with flat panel displays, keyboards, and mice will be provided in the MCR. The operator workstations will be configured such that the operators will be able to view programmed displays. The operator workstations provide the capability of displaying customized, dynamic color graphics of the processes. Additionally, the operators will be able to monitor trend data, event logs and alarm priority levels. The operator workstations will be configured (via password protection) such that no control function will be allowed from the workstation.

The digital controllers in the DCS are designed to mimic the Unit 1 analog controllers.

The initial controller settings will be the same as those on Unit 1 and will use the same algorithm, except for the steam generators. Steam Generators will use the Sequoyah (SQN) algorithm. Testing performed at SQN indicates there is insignificant response change due to the algorithm. Initial set up of the controllers on Unit 2 will use the setpoint data (i.e. proportional and differential settings) established for the Unit I controllers. Tuning adjustments will then be made during Unit 2 start-up testing to achieve the desired system response.

On Unit 1, a loss of power supply or failure of a controller will cause a ioop to fail. Unit 2 will have redundant power supplies supplied from different sources, and redundant control processors executing the control algorithms. On critical loops redundant transmitters and redundant outputs to control valves are provided. Failures of E2-23

transmitters / input signals on Unit 2 will result in smaller perturbations since the system will automatically select a valid signal, if available, or place the controller into Manual.

The new system will provide alarm outputs to the annunciator system identical to alarms in Unit 1. The new system also provides two new alarms to the annunciator, DC S System Trouble which alerts the operator that a hardware failure has occurred which does not immediately affect operability, i.e., there is a redundant system in place and functional, and DCS Controller in Manual which indicates that a failure has occurred which requires that a loop be forced to manual.

2.2.5.e Plant Process Computer The Plant Process Computer interface for the operator will be the same. Due to I/A, much more information will be available on Unit 2.

2.2.5.f Unit 2 Moisture Separator Reheaters The Unit 2 Moisture Separator Reheaters are higher capacity reheaters. Along with the Main Turbine difference, the steam side of Unit 2 will operate at a slightly lower steam pressure (about 45 psi lower). This will cause slightly different flows throughout the system (extraction steam, heater drain flows) that will require different alarm setpoints.

All manipulations of system are proceduralized. Controls in MCR are the same for both units.

Unit 2 Thermal Power will be limited to 3411 vs. 3459 MW for Unit 1, until the LEFM system is available.

2.2.6 Administrative Procedures related to Conduct of Operations for a Multi-Unit Site The administrative procedures related to conduct of operations at a multi-unit Watts Bar Site will be the same as those used for the Sequoyah Site and are contained in TVA NPG Standard Department Procedure (OPDP- 1). Requirements for shift manning are summarized below:

2.2.6.a A SM with an active SRO license, who is also a member of the Operations shift crew, shall be on site at all times when fuel is in the reactor.

2.2.6.b In addition to the SM on site, a second active licensed SRO shall be in the control room at all times. The SM may, from time to time, act as relief Operator for the licensed SRO assigned to the control room.

E2-24

2.2.6.c In addition to the staffing requirements stated above, shift crew assignments during periods of core alterations, shall include a licensed SRO to supervise the core alterations. This SRO shall not have any other concurrent operational duties.

2.2.6.d Additional personnel may be required on shift because of unusual plant conditions or operational needs. The SM shall obtain the additional personnel as necessary. Activities requiring additional personnel will not be undertaken until the required personnel are available.

2.2.6.e An individual fulfilling the STA function shall be assigned to each shift and within 10 minutes of the control room when a plant is being operated in Modes 1-4. The STA may serve more than one unit if qualified.

2.2.6.f A fire brigade of at least five members shall be maintained onsite at all times. The fire brigade shall not include those personnel required in the control room or those personnel necessary for the I OCFR5O Appendix R safe shutdown of the units. Only personnel who have satisfactorily completed the fire fighting training required by the TVA fire protection plan shall be assigned as fire brigade members. The members of the fire brigade shall be designated for each shift.

2.2.6.g Deviations in shift complement may be made, provided minimum manning and license requirements of TS are met.

2.2.6.h Operations personnel should not be shifted from one unit to another unit without sufficient time for the individual to become familiar with its conditions.

2.2.6.i The following table summarizes minimum staffing requirements: Note, this is procedural minimum staffing and not Technical Specification minimum staffing.

  • Shift Manager (SRO) 1
  • Unit Supervisor (SRO) 2*
  • Unit Operator (RO) 4
  • Non-licensed (AUO) 8
  • STA 1
  • Two active-licensed SROs are required for Unit Supervisor positions and a third active licensed SRO is required as Shift Manager.

E2-25

2.2.7 Expected Method of Rotating Personnel between Units and Re-familiarization Training To Be Conducted Before Assuming Duty on the New Unit Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Operations Shift Schedule is a continuous five-week rotation for each crewincluding four weeks in Plant and one week in Training. Each crew will consist of sub-crews (for example, Crew 1A, Crew lB. Crew 2A, Crew 2B etc.).

Management expectation is that each sub-crew will assume the shift on the opposite Unit after every training week. Crew 1 A would assume the shift for Unit I for four weeks, attend training week, assume the shift for Unit 2 for four weeks, attend training week, assume the shift for Unit I for four weeks, etc. while Crew 1 B would assume the shift on the opposite Unit.

E2-26

3. Training and Qualification Plan This training plan provides an outline of the expected scope, duration, and delivery schedule based on the analysis of the unit differences, the Unit 2 testing and start-up schedule, and initial license needs. Certain assumptions have been made to develop this plan and those are discussed in section 3.2. It is expected that the training schedule and duration discussed will be sufficient to accommodate the results of any further training needs analysis resulting from any differences not already identified.

Unit 2 fuel load and startup have been carefully coordinated with Unit 1 refuel outages, Unit 1 upgrade to digital controls, Simulator upgrade to digital controls, LOR differences training for startup and the licensing dates for initial license classes. This has resulted in a plan for all licensed operators to hold dual unit licenses. Further, with the current plan, if there are any issues with meeting the scheduled Unit 2 fuel load and startup date, there will be no impact on this training plan.

3.1 Training Analysis With the design freeze recently completed, the training staff is still in the process of analyzing unit differences, conducting formal training needs analyses, and developing the associated training materials. As of 8/9/10, 100% of issued DCNs/EDCRs have been reviewed. Of these, approximately 16% have been initially screened as requiring operator training and have a completed training needs analysis that has been reviewed and approved by a special training committee. This committee was established to review the Training Needs Analysis documents for the Operations curriculum review committees (CRCs).

Dedicated operations resources were used to determine required unit differences training for Operations based on all design change notices (DCNs). This ensured that a consistent review was performed and minimized the potential that a change might be missed and not covered in training.

Training estimates that 10% of the total number of DCNs/EDCRs are yet to be issued.

These will be reviewed for training needs as they are issued over the next several months.

Of the DCNs/EDCRs screened as likely to require some level of operator training, 90%

are relatively minor. The other 10% of differences will require some level of operator training. Operator impacts are detailed in Attachment 1.

This training plan is designed to be flexible in nature while still maintaining the integrity of the overall concept of the design. As Unit 2 fuel load approaches, it is recognized that additional differences may be identified or some design changes may occur. The procedures and processes are in place and functioning that force any new plant changes (Unit 1 or Unit 2) to be reviewed by training personnel for impact on operator training E2-27

programs. This is also true for changes to setpoints, procedures, designs, technical specifications and other changes that may occur.

The training program can accommodate any future training needs identified over and above those currently known. The approximate number of hours is flexible, as well as the specified hours per topic described in the plan. Watts Bar is committed to ensuring the operators are trained and evaluated in both knowledge and skill based tasks and activities to ensure safe operation of the current unit and new Unit 2. To this end, the unit differences comprehensive exam will be modeled after the Watts Bar biennial exam process for licensed operators.

3.2 Training Plan Assumptions 3.2.1 The full-scope Digital Control System (DCS) will be installed in Unit 2.

3.2.2 Unit 1 will install the feed water. pressurizer level, pressurizer pressure, and boration control portions of the DCS in U1-RFO11 in 10/2012. The Unit 1 simulator will be modified with the Unit 1 DCS controls in 01/2012, approximately 10 months in advance of the reference unit and about the same time as the Unit 2 start up and power ascension.

3.2.3 The training content for unit differences training will be delivered during the normally scheduled LOR training cycles, as well as some structured on shift job familiarization guides and a formal qualification card (OJT/TPE).

3.2.4 Unit 2 hot functional testing begins on 10/10/11. Fuel load is scheduled for 12/17/11. initial criticality is 0 1/16/12.

3.2.5 Dual-unit operator licenses will be applied for at the completion of Unit ito Unit 2 differences training on 9/19/i 1 and issued to support fuel load on 12/17/li.

3.2.6 The Licensed Operator Requalification biennial examination scheduled for November and December 2011 will cover Unit 1 and Unit 2 topics drawn from the sample plan. Additionally, the Unit differences will also be tested in a comprehensive exam during the cycle 10 training week, which ends the week of 9/12/11. In addition to the comprehensive written exam in cycle 10, there will be performance based JPM evaluations on the unit differences during cycle 10.

Weekly exams given during cycle training will also be used to evaluate operator knowledge of the unit differences.

3.2.7 The NRC grants the waiver request for the NRC administered license examination on Unit 2. The basis for the dual-unit license application waiver request will include:

Completion of a company-administered written comprehensive examination, performance based JPMs in the plant, in the control room and completion of a formal qualification card (OJT/TPE)

E2-28

  • Completion of a formalized job familiarization guide on the Unit 2 differences A nearly identical justification for the units, and
  • Results of any associated NRC training inspections that support acceptability of the stations training program.

3.3 Description of Training and Qualification Plan for Personnel Currently Licensed on Unit 1 3.3.1 Licensed Operator Requalification (LOR) Training Plan Design The 20 10-2011 LOR training program is designed using a standard template of 12 training cycles, each 6 weeks in duration. To synchronize with the Unit 2 project schedule, Cycles 5 and 6 (scheduled September through December 2010) will begin structured plant walk down training and completion ofjob familiarization guides with the Unit 2 Control Room and plant differences. Cycle 7 (scheduled for January and February 2011) will focus primarily on normal LOR topics and information for the Unit scheduled refueling outage in March 2011. Cycles 8, 9, 10, and 11 (scheduled May through October 2011) will be focused on training for common systems, unit differences, hot functional testing, and initial criticality (see Table 2 below for details). This training commences immediately following the April 2011 refueling outage for Unit 1, and supports Unit 2 initial fuel load in December 2011. The training plan is also designed to complete all Unit 2 differences training and evaluation, prior to submitting the dual unit license applications in September 2011.

3.3.2 LOR Training Plan Summary When dual unit license applications are submitted, in September 2011, licensed operators with Unit 1 licenses will have received approximately 124 hours0.00144 days <br />0.0344 hours <br />2.050265e-4 weeks <br />4.7182e-5 months <br /> of training on the Unit 1 and Unit 2 differences. The remaining 116 hours0.00134 days <br />0.0322 hours <br />1.917989e-4 weeks <br />4.4138e-5 months <br /> of requalification training time for cycles 5 through 10 will be normal Unit 1 proficiency training. Job familiarization guides and unit differences training commence as early as September of 2010. The majority of this training will take place between May 2011 and September 2011, after which dual unit license applications will be submitted.

This training plan includes:

  • Training on common systems, unit differences, Unit 2 procedures and Technical Specifications
  • Completion of a unit differences job familiarization card
  • Formal OJT and TPE Qualification cards
  • Temporarily modifying the simulator to allow demonstration of the D-3 steam generators and cold clean core initial criticality
  • Training on the Sequoyah simulator to become familiar with DCS.

E2-29

The training is designed to have several components for both knowledge and performance training and evaluation.

3.3.2.a Early on starting in cycles 5 and 6 of LOR, which starts in September 2010, there will be classroom and job familiarization guides (JFG) on unit differences. The intent is to have classroom training followed by in plant and in control room walk downs.

The JFGs will be designed as a formal structured document for operators to use as guidance in locating and understanding unit differences. Once issued, these guides can be used on a self-paced basis, but must be completed before dual unit license applications are submitted.

3.3.2.b Cycle 7, starting in January 2011, will focus primarily on normal LOR topics and information for the scheduled Unit 1 refueling outage in March 2011. Cycle 7 will also cover some of the common system tie in and integration with Unit 1, which will occur during the Unit 1 outage.

3.3.2.c Cycle 8, starting in May 2011, will be dedicated to DCS and Unit 2 differences that have been analyzed to require greater than one hour of training based on the Training Needs Analyses performed. This training will include hands-on practice of DCS controls and interface using the Sequoyah simulator, the Watts Bar simulator, in plant job familiarization guides, classroom training and OJT and TPE. This cycle includes classroom instruction delivered by vendors and by training staff.

3.3.2.c.1 There will be vendor-supplied simulations, which will allow operators to become familiar with the new controls as well as demonstration on DCS capabilities. The DCS vendor will perform hands-on operator training using an engineering station. This training on the engineering station will involve inputting signals into a controller and the operator will interface with the controller. No feedback processes will be modeled. Other vendor training will be classroom, learning about the capabilities and operator interface with the CRT control stations.

3.3.2.c.2 JFGs will also continue through this cycle with plant tours following classroom lectures on system differences.

E2-30

3.3.2.c.3 Cycle 8 will utilize the WBN Unit I simulator as it will be temporarily modified to allow for demonstration of the Unit 2 (D-3) steam generators (original plant design and simulator model), which have slightly different procedures and controls for warm up and start up of the steam generators. (Unit 1 steam generators were previously upgraded to a newer version and simulator modeling was also upgraded). Following the demonstrations, the WBN simulator will be returned to Unit I fidelity.

3.3.2.c.4 The Sequoyah (SQN) simulator, which is very similar to the WBN simulator, has been upgraded to digital controls for some major systems, such as feedwater. The SQN simulator will be utilized to conduct part task simulations, OJT and TPE on systems containing new digital controls.

Training includes each operator performing tasks with the DCS systems. Performance evaLuations will be conducted this cycle on the SQN simulator in the form of formal TPE evaluations. This cycle will also include a written exam over the material covered during the week on unit differences.

3.3 .2 .c .5 Formal OJT/TPE qualification cards will be issued during this cycle. Some OJT and TPE will be conducted on the SQN simulator and some will be conducted in the WBN plant and control room. A core group of operators will be trained and evaluated to conduct the OJT and TPE in the plant.

3.3.2.d Cycle 9, starting in June 2011, will continue with differences training by expanding the plant changes lesson plan normally delivered in every cycle, to cover any remaining unit differences or any recently identified changes.

The WBN simulator will be used as well, with scenarios delivered using normal Unit 1 responses and procedures. Each scenario will be immediately followed by an instructor-led discussion of how this scenario would differ on Unit 2, including a review of Unit 2 procedures and technical specifications.

Unit 2 Hot Functional Testing procedures and requirements will be covered in this cycle, as well.

3.3.2.e Cycle 10, starting in August 2011, will provide further training on any procedure differences, including AOl, EOI, EP and SOT procedures. The WBN simulator will again be utilized to run normal Unit 1 scenarios, followed by discussion of any Unit 2 differences, as described above for cycle 9. The WBN simulator will again be temporarily modified to allow continuing demonstration of the Unit 2 steam generators.

E2-31

Cycle 10 will also include a comprehensive exam over all unit differences. The exam will include a comprehensive written, control room JPMs. and in-plant JPMs. Operator testing and certification on Unit 2 will be conducted by Watts Bar staff with NRC concurrence and will request a waiver of an NRC administered license examination for unit 2 licenses. At the conclusion of this comprehensive exam, the station will submit dual unit license applications for all personnel holding a Unit I license at that time.

3.3.2.f Additional training will be administered for Unit 2 during cycle 11 and contains training on hot functional testing, fuel cycle one core design, initial criticality procedures and start up training on Unit 2.

This will include a temporary modification to the Unit 1 simulator to allow training on a new clean core for Unit 2 startup. When this training is complete the WBN simulator will again be returned to Unit 1 fidelity.

Cycle 1 1 training will be complete in October 2011 and is after license application submittal and before Unit 2 fuel load.

3.3.2.g The Biennial LOR exams will be administered in cycle 12. starting in November 2011. The exam will contain evaluation on Unit 1 and Unit 2 based on topics from the sample plan for the 2-year training cycle. This provides additional opportunity to ensure knowledge transfer to the operators is acceptable.

3.3.3 LOR Examination Impact of Planned Simulator Modifications A basic timeline for the normally scheduled LOR simulator examinations with respect to the installation of the simulator DCS modification is as follows:

  • 12/20 1 1 LOR Simulator Exams Analog Controls
  • 0 1/2012 Install Unit 1 DCS controls on Unit 1 plant-reference simulator
  • 10/2012 Install DCS controls on Unit 1 during Refueling Outage
  • 11/20 12 LOR Simulator Exams Digital Controls (11 months practice on digital controls)

More information concerning the simulator is contained in section 3.5.

The timeline for the differences training integrated with other key training and station milestones is provided in Figure 1.

Table 2 provides a breakdown of the differences training into the individual LOR training cycles.

E2-32

3.4 Description of Training and Qualification Plan for Personnel in Current and Future Initial License Classes 3.4.1 Initial License Training (ILT) Plan Design ILT classes have been coordinated to support Unit 1 refuel outages, Unit 2 initial fuel load and start up, Unit differences training, Simulator upgrade to DCS, and Unit 1 upgrade to DCS. Two classes will initially obtain Unit 1 licenses, and then receive differences training. Their dual unit license applications will be submitted after differences training is completed. Subsequent classes will receive differences training during ILL such that, at the NRC exam dates, they receive dual unit licenses immediately.

3.4.2 ILT Training Plan Summary Note: Initial license classes are numbered with the year and month the class takes the NRC exam, i.e., class 11-06 takes the NRC exam in June of2011.

Initial Licensing Training will continue to be conducted in accordance with TVA Nuclear Power Group Procedures.

3.4.2.a ILT Classes 11-06 and 11-10 are scheduled for their NRC Examinations in June 2011 and October 2011 respectively which are prior to Unit 2 fuel load in December 2011. Both classes will train and examine on the Unit 1 referenced simulator and their license applications (NRC Form 398) will request a Unit 1 License. After receipt of their NRC licenses, these students will subsequently be given the differences training contained in the LOR plan. A request to waiver a NRC-administered license examination for these operators will formally occur during a second License Application submittal to apply for dual unit licenses.

3.4.2.b ILT Class 12-1 1 will take their NRC Examination in November 2012; this is after the Unit 1 reference simulator is upgraded to digital controls in January 2012, and after Unit 1 Main Control Room (MCR) is upgraded in October 2012. These students will be trained on Unit 1 and Unit 2 differences during the course of their ILT class. This class will use the DCS upgraded simulator. This class will submit License Applications for a Unit 1 and Unit 2 License.

3.4.2.c No ILT classes will take NRC exams on the simulator during the 10-month time frame that the simulator leads the changes on the plant.

E2-33

3.4.3 ILT Examination Impact of Planned Simulator Modifications A basic timeline for the ILT simulator examinations with respect to the installation of the simulator DCS modification is as follows:

  • 06/2011 ILT Class 11-06 NRC Exam Analog Controls
  • 11/2011 ILT Class 11-10 NRC Exam Analog Controls
  • 01/2012 Install Unit 1 DCS controls on Unit 1 plant-referenced simulator
  • 10/20 12 Install DCS controls on Unit 1 during Refueling Outage
  • 11/2012 ILT Class 12-11 NRC Exam Digital Controls
  • 06/2013 ILT Class 13-06 NRC Exam Digital Controls The timeline for the differences training integrated with other key training and station milestones is provided in Figure 1.

3.5 Maintaining Simulator Alignment with the Reference Unit 1 3.5.1 Simulator Configuration Plan Design This plan was designed to support Unit 2 fuel load and start-up, Unit 1 upgrade to DCS, support of LOR training for unit differences training, support of LOR training following Unit 2 start-up and support of ILT such that personnel are examining on the reference unit simulator.

3.5.2 Simulator Configuration Plan Summary The WBN simulator will be maintained certified as a Unit 1 Reference Simulator.

3.5.2.a In support of steam generator differences training the simulator will temporarily be loaded with a Unit 2 steam generator model to demonstrate the operational characteristics of the Unit 2 steam generators. This is scheduled for cycle 8 and cycle 10 as part of the unit differences training.

3.5.2.b In support of reactor core differences training topic the simulator will temporarily be loaded with a Unit 2 reactor core model to demonstrate the operational characteristics of the Unit 2 reactor core. This is scheduled for cycle 11, just prior to Unit 2 fuel load and initial criticality.

3.5.2.c Upon completion of each of these differences training topics, the simulator will be restored to a Unit 1 referenced simulator.

E2-34

3.5.2.d In preparation for Unit I installation of DCS for the feed water, pressurizer level, pressurizer pressure, and boration controls in Ui RFOI I in October 2012, the simulator will be modified in January 2012 and will lead Unit I for about 10 months in the installation of these portions of DCS. This has been standard practice in the industry to install modifications in the simulator prior to the reference unit to allow training on the new modifications and Watts Bar will follow this standard practice.

At Unit 2 fuel load in December 2011, Unit 2 will be equipped with a comprehensive digital control system (DCS). A DCS upgrade for feedwater, pressurizer and boration controls is planned for Unit 1 in October 2012, during refueling outage Rh. The Unit 1 plant-referenced simulator will be modified in advance of the reference plant by installing DCS in January 2012, or about 10 months ahead of the plant. Modifying the simulator on this schedule will also provide the operators with a hands-on DCS operating simulation in the time frame of Unit 2 power ascension testing, but after fuel-load. ILT Class 12-11 was rescheduled to ensure that the operator exam is administered on a fully aligned Unit 1 plant referenced simulator. Delaying this class for 5 months, to align with the simulator upgrade, will not impact the number of license operators needed at Watts Bar during this time. Modifying the simulator to DCS on this time line will result in simulator examinations as follows:

  • 06/2011 ILT Class 11-06 NRC Exam Analog Controls
  • 11/2011 ILT Class 11-10 NRC Exam Analog Controls
  • 12/2011 LOR Simulator Exam Analog Controls
  • 01/2012 Install Unit I DCS controls on Unit I plant-referenced simulator
  • 10/20 12 Install DCS controls on Unit 1 during Refueling Outage
  • 11/2012 ILT Class 12-11 NRC Exam Digital Controls
  • 11/20 12 LOR Simulator Exam Digital Controls (11 months practice on digital controls)
  • 06/20 13 ILT Class 13-06 NRC Exam Digital Controls The timeline for the differences training integrated with other key training and station milestones is provided in Figure 1.

Unit Differences To support unit difference training, a simulator load using the original steam generator (OSG) model will be developed. The OSG model can be used for training demonstrations during unit difference training, including the operating characteristics of the original steam generators and the forward flush / back flush procedure.

The Unit 2 Foxboro contract includes 100 student-weeks of vendor supplied training.

Foxboro brings training equipment to provide hands-on operator interface training. WBN operators and T&C technicians would attend this training, as well as select operations training staff (train-the-trainer) and engineers.

When Unit 2 core data is available, the Unit 1 simulator will be temporarily modified to model Unit 2 core data.

ATTACHMENT 3- NRC Guidance NUREG-1021, ES-204, C.l.c, PROCESSING WAIVERS REQUESTED BY REACTOR OPERATOR AND SENIOR REACTOR OPERATOR APPLICANTS:

Facility licensees having units designed by the same nuclear steam supply system vendor and operated at approximately the same power level may request dual licensing for their operators. Similarly, if the units of a multi-unit facility are nearly identical, the facility licensee may request a waiver of the examination requirements for the second and subsequent units.

In either case, the facility licensee must justify to the NRC that the differences between the units are not so significant that they could affect the operators ability to operate each unit safely and competently. Further, the facility licensee must submit for NRC review the details of the training and certification program. The analysis and summary of the differences on which the applicants must be trained will include the following, as applicable:

  • facility design and systems relevant to control room personnel
  • technical specifications
  • procedures (primarily abnormal and emergency operating)
  • control room design and instrument location
  • operational characteristics
  • administrative procedures related to conduct of operations at a multi-unit site (e.g., shift manning and response to accidents and fires)
  • the expected method of rotating personnel between units and the re familiarization training to be conducted before an operator assumes responsibility on a new unit 7.2 Regulatory Guide 1.149, C.2, USE OF A SIMULATOR FOR MULTIPLE PLANTS If a licensee wishes to use a simulation facility to train or examine operators for more than one nuclear power plant, it must be able to demonstrate to the NRC that the differences between the plants are not so significant that they will result in negative training. This demonstration should include an analysis and summary of the differences between each plant, including:
1. Facility design and systems relevant to control room personnel,
2. Technical specifications,
3. Procedures, primarily abnormal and emergency operating procedures,
4. Control room design and instrument/control location, and
5. Operational characteristics.

7.3 10CFR55.46 Simulation facilities.

E2-71

(a) General. This section addresses the use of a simulation facility for the administration of the operating test and plant-referenced simulators to meet experience requirements for applicants for operator and senior operator licenses.

(b) Commission-approved simulation facilities and Commission approval of use of the plant in the administration ofthe operating test.

(1) Facility licensees that propose to use a simulation facility, other than a plant-referenced simulator, or the plant in the administration of the operating test under

§ 55.45(b)(1) or 55.45(b)(3), shall request approval from the Commission. This request must include:

(i) A description of the components of the simulation facility intended to be used, or the way the plant would be used for each part of the operating test, unless previously approved; and (ii) A description of the performance tests for the simulation facility as part of the request, and the results of these tests; and (iii) A description of the procedures for maintaining examination and test integrity consistent with the requirements of § 55.49.

(2) The Commission will approve a simulation facility or use of the plant for administration of operating tests if it finds that the simulation facility and its proposed use, or the proposed use of the plant, are suitable for the conduct of operating tests for the facility licensees reference plant under § 55.45(a).

(c) Plant-referenced simulators.

(1) A plant-referenced simulator used for the administration of the operating test or to meet experience requirements in § 55.3 1(a)(5) must demonstrate expected plant response to operator input and to normal, transient, and accident conditions to which the simulator has been designed to respond. The plant-referenced simulator must be designed and implemented so that it:

(i) Is sufficient in scope and fidelity to allow conduct of the evolutions listed in § 55.45(a)(l) through (13), and 55.59(c)(3)(i)(A) through (AA), as applicable to the design of the reference plant.

(ii) Allows for the completion of control manipulations for operator license applicants.

(2) Facility licensees that propose to use a plant-referenced simulator to meet the control manipulation requirements in § 55.3 1(a)(5) must ensure that:

(i) The plant-referenced simulator utilizes models relating to nuclear and thermal-hydraulic characteristics that replicate the most recent core load in the nuclear power reference plant for which a license is being sought; and (ii) Simulator fidelity has been demonstrated so that significant control manipulations are completed without procedural exceptions, simulator performance exceptions, or deviation from the approved training scenario sequence.

(3) A simulation facility consisting solely of a plant-referenced simulator must meet the requirements of paragraph (c)(1) of this section and the criteria in paragraphs (d)(l) and (4) of this section for the Commission to accept the plant-referenced simulator for conducting operating tests as described in § 5 5.45(a) of this part, requalification training as described in § 55.59(c)(3) of this part, or for performing control manipulations that affect reactivity to establish eligibility for an operators license as described in § 55.3 1(a)(5).
