SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION In accordance with 10 CFR 50.90, IIApplication for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit, II Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) requests an amendment to Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-44 and DPR-56 for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS), Units 2 and 3. The proposed amendment modifies the Technical Specifications (TS) by replacing the pressure and temperature (P-T) limit curves with references to the Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR). Relocation of the P-T limit curves to the PTLR is consistent with the guidance provided in U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) approved GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1 ('IGE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Methodology for Development of ll Reactor Pressure Vessel Pressure-Temperature Curves (Reference 1). This topical report

)

uses the guidelines provided in USNRC Generic Letter (GL) 96-03, IIRelocation of the Pressure ll Temperature Limit Curves and Low Temperature Overpressure Protection System Limits (Reference 2). Additionally, the TS changes in this license amendment request are consistent with the guidance provided in GL 96-03 as supplemented by Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) traveler TSTF-419-A, IIRevise PTLR Definition and References in ISTS 5.6.6, RCS PTLR II (Reference 3), and the guidance contained in the August 4, 2011 USNRC letter (Reference 4) which requires the full methodology citation in TS Section 5.6 ('IReporting ll Requirements as discussed below.

),

2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION The proposed change includes the following TS revisions:

ll a) TS Section 1.1, IIDefinitions - A new definition, IIPressure and Temperature Limits Report, II is added. The wording for this definition is consistent with that in TSTF-419-A.

ll b) TS Section 3.4.9, IIRCS Pressure and Temperature (prr) Limits The P-T curves and the associated TS wording have been deleted and replaced with references to the PTLR.

ll c) TS Section 5.6, IIReporting Requirements - A new Section 5.6.7 ('IReactor Coolant System (RCS) Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR)II) has been added. The format and content of new Section 5.6.7 are consistent with that in TSTF-419-A, and the guidance contained in the August 4, 2011 USNRC letter (Reference 4) which requires ll the full methodology citation in TS Section 5.6 ('IReporting Requirements ). This new section: (1) identifies the individual TS that address reactor coolant system P-T limits; (2) references the USNRC-approved topical report that documents PTLR methodologies in a complete citation; and (3) requires that the PTLR and any revision or supplement thereto be submitted to the USNRC. provides the existing TS pages marked-up to show the proposed changes.

Marked-up pages showing corresponding changes to the TS Bases are provided in for information only. The TS Bases changes will be processed in accordance with the PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 Bases Control Program (TS 5.5.10).

The Attachment 3 PTLR provides the P-T curves developed to represent steam dome pressure versus minimum vessel metal temperature incorporating appropriate non-beltline limits and irradiation embrittlement effects in the beltline region. PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 are currently Page 2

Attachment 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes licensed to P-T curves for up to 32 effective full power years (EFPV); the analysis performed in this report establishes curves for up to 32 and 54 EFPV. The 1998 Edition of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code including 2000 Addenda was used in this evaluation.

As documented in Section 4.0 of the Safety Evaluation Report for GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, licensees who choose to implement NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1 as their facility*s PTLR methodology must address one plant-specific action item:

The licensee must identify the report used to calculate the neutron fluence and document that the plant-specific neutron fluence calculation will be performed using an approved neutron fluence calculation methodology.

Accordingly, the PTLR incorporates a fluence calculated in accordance with the GE Licensing Topical Report NEDC-32983P-A, Revision 2, which has been approved by the USNRC (Reference 5), and is in compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.190. The latest information from the BWRVIP Integrated Surveillance Program that is applicable to PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 has been utilized.

This license amendment request is being submitted to satisfy commitment 23 associated with license renewal for PBAPS, as detailed in NUREG-1769, Appendix D. In order to bound potential future operations at uprated conditions, the revised fluence represents a power level of 120% of original licensed thermal power, equal to 3951 MWt. Current Licensed Power level fluence (3514 MWt) was considered through 31.06 Effective Full Power Years (EFPV) for Unit 2 and 31.96 EFPY for Unit 3, which represents the end of Cycle 20. For the remainder of the plant's operating license, fluence at a power level of 120% of original licensed thermal power was assumed. Use of this fluence for the P-T curves for current operating conditions is conservative and is not dependent on the approval of an Extended Power Uprate application.

As stated previOUSly, relocation of the P-T limit curves to the PTLR is consistent with the guidance provided in USNRC Generic Letter (GL) 96-03, IIRelocation of the Pressure Temperature Limit Curves and Low Temperature Overpressure Protection System Limits ll (Reference 2), TSTF-419-A, IIRevise PTLR Definition and References in ISTS 5.6.6, RCS PTLR II (Reference 3), and the guidance contained in the August 4, 2011 USNRC letter (Reference 4) which requires the full methodology citation in TS Section 5.6 C*Reporting Requirements ll ).

3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION

10 CFR 50, Appendix G, requires the establishment of P-T limits for material fracture toughness requirements of the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary materials. 10 CFR 50, Appendix G requires an adequate margin to brittle failure during normal operation, abnormal operational transients, and system hydrostatic tests. It mandates the use of the ASME Code,Section III, Appendix G.

Historically, the P-T limit curves for BWRs have been contained in the TS, necessitating the submittal of license amendment requests to update the curves. This caused both the USNRC and licensees to expend resources that could otherwise be devoted to other activities.

Page 3

Attachment 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes Generic Letter 96-03 allows plants to relocate their P-T curves and associated numerical limits (such as heatup and cooldown rates) from the plant TS to a PTLR, which is a licensee-controlled document. As stated in Generic Letter 96-03, during the development of the improved Standard Technical Specifications (STS), a change was proposed to relocate the P-T limits currently contained in the plant TS to a PTLR. As one of the improvements to the STS, the USNRC staff agreed with the industry that the curves may be relocated outside the plant TS to a PTLR so that the licensee could maintain these limits efficiently. One of the prerequisites for having the PTLR option is that the P-T curves and limits be derived using methodologies approved by the USNRC, and that the associated licensing topical reports describing the approved methodologies be referenced in the plant TS.

The purpose of GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, is to provide the methodology developed by GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH) for the determination of reactor pressure vessel P-T curves. The adequacy of the GEH methodology is demonstrated through a detailed description of the calculation procedures and examples showing agreement between GEH practices and the standards and Code requirements set forth in 10 CFR 50, Appendix G. NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, does not include development or licensing of vessel fluence methods. The fluence methods are provided in GE Licensing Topical Report NEDC-32983P-A, Revision 2.

In order to implement the PTLR, the analytical methods used to develop the P-T limits must be consistent with those previously reviewed and approved by the USNRC and must be referenced in the Administrative Controls section of the plant TS. GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, provides the current methodology for developing reactor coolant system P-T limit curves and other associated numerical limits for BWRs. The PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 P-T curves have been developed in accordance with the NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, methodology as documented in the PTLR provided in .

The P-T curves included in the PTLR have been developed to present steam dome pressure versus minimum vessel metal temperature incorporating appropriate non-beltline limits and irradiation embrittlement effects in the beltline region. Complete P-T curves were developed for 32 and 54 effective full power years (EFPV). These P-T curves and a tabulation of the curves are provided in the PTLR. This report incorporates a fluence (E > 1 MeV) calculated in accordance with the GE Licensing Topical Report NEDC-32983P-A, Revision 2, which has been approved by the USNRC, and is in compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.190. The latest information from the BWRVIP Integrated Surveillance Program that is applicable to PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 has been utilized.

The methodology used to generate the P-T curves in this report is presented in Section 3.0 of the PTLR. The 1998 Edition of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code including 2000 Addenda was used in this evaluation.

The operating limits for pressure and temperature are required for three categories of operation:

(a) hydrostatic pressure tests and leak tests, referred to as Curve A, (b) non-nuclear heatup/cooldown and low-level physics tests, referred to as core not critical operation or Curve B, and (c) core critical operation, referred to as Curve C. There are four vessel regions that should be monitored against the P-T curve operating limits; these regions are defined on the thermal cycle diagram:

Page 4

Attachment 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes

  • Closure flange region (Region A)
  • Core beltline region (Region B)
  • Upper vessel (Regions A & B)
  • Lower vessel (Regions B & C)

For the core not critical and the core critical curves, the P-T curves specify a coolant heatup and cooldown temperature rate of 1OO°F/hr or less for which the curves are applicable. However, the core not critical and the core critical curves were also developed to bound transients defined on the RPV thermal cycle diagram and the nozzle thermal cycle diagrams. The bounding transients used to develop the curves are described in NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1. For the hydrostatic pressure and leak test curve, a coolant heatup and cooldown temperature rate of 20°F/hr or less must be maintained at all times. The P-T curves apply for both heatup and cooldown and for both the 1/4T and 3/4T locations because the maximum tensile stress for either heatup or cooldown is applied at the 1/4T location. For beltline curves this approach has added conservatism because irradiation effects cause the allowable toughness, Klr, at 1/4T to be less than that at 3/4T for a given metal temperature. Curves A and B provide separate bottom head as well as composite upper vessel and beltline requirements.

Separate P-T curves were developed for the upper vessel, beltline (at various intermediate and end of license EFPYs), and bottom head for the Pressure Test and Core Not Critical conditions.

Composite P-T curves were generated for each of the Pressure Test, Core Not Critical and Core Critical conditions at intermediate and end of license EFPYs. The composite curves were generated by enveloping the most restrictive P-T limits from the separate bottom head, beltline, upper vessel and closure assembly P-T limits.

The proposed TS revisions associated with relocation of the P-T limits to a PTLR are consistent with the guidance provided in GL 96-03 as supplemented by TSTF-419-A, and the Reference 4 letter.

In the Reference 7 letter, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission requested additional information concerning the Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit 1 license amendment request pertaining to the implementation of a PTLR. Attachment 4 provides a response to these questions for PBAPS, Units 2 and 3.

4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION

4.1 Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria As discussed in the Safety Evaluation Report for GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, the USNRC has established requirements in 10 CFR 50, Appendix G in order to protect the integrity of the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary in nuclear power plants. Appendix G requires that the P-T limits for an operating light-water nuclear reactor be at least as conservative as those that would be generated if the methods of Appendix G to Section XI of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code were used to generate the P-T limits. 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix G also requires that applicable surveillance data from RPV material surveillance programs be incorporated into the calculations of plant specific P-T limits, and that the P-T limits for operating reactors be generated using a method that accounts for the effects of neutron irradiation on the material properties of the RPV beltline materials. USNRC regulatory guidance related to P-T limit curves Page 5

Attachment 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes is found in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 C'Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Materials")

and Standard Review Plan (NUREG-0800) Section 5.3.2 ("Pressure-Temperature Limits, Upper-Shelf Energy, and Pressurized Thermal Shock").

Adoption of the USNRC-approved methodology described in the GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, for the preparation of the P-T limit curves ensures that the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix G will be satisfied. 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix H provides criteria for the design and implementation of reactor pressure vessel material surveillance programs for operating light water reactors. PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 demonstrates its compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix H through participation in the Boiling Water Reactor Vessel and Internals Project (BWRVIP) Integrated Surveillance Program (ISP) (Reference 6).

Generic Letter 96-03 provides regulatory guidance regarding relocation of P-T curves and associated numerical limits (such as heatup and cooldown rates) from plant TS to a PTLR (a licensee-controlled document). As stated in GL 96-03, a licensee requesting such a change must satisfy the following three criteria:

(1) Have USNRC-approved methodologies to reference in the TS, (2) Develop a PTLR to contain the P-T limit curves, associated numerical limits, and any necessary explanation, and (3) Modify applicable sections of the TS accordingly.

The USNRC-approved methodology of GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, has been adopted for preparation of the PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 P-T limit curves. As discussed in Section 5.0 ("Conclusion") of the Reference 1 USNRC Safety Evaluation Report:

liThe NRC staff concludes that BWROG LTR NEDC-33178P, Revision 1, satisfies the criteria in Attachment 1 in GL 96-03 and provides adequate methodology for BWR licensees to calculate P-T limit curves, given that licensees referencing this LTR comply with the conditions listed in Section 4.0 of this SE. Using this methodology and following the PTLR guidance in GL 96-03, as amended by NRC TSTF-419, BWR licensees will be able to relocate the P-T limit curves from TS to a PTLR, a licensee-controlled document. II As discussed previously, the PTLR incorporates a fluence calculated in accordance with the GE Licensing Topical Report NEDC-32983P-A, Revision 2, which has been approved by the USNRC (Reference 5), and is in compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.190, thus satisfying the requirement contained in Section 5.0 of the USNRC Safety Evaluation Report.

Proposed revisions to applicable sections of the TS have been prepared and are provided in to this submittal. These proposed TS changes are consistent with the guidance provided in GL 96-03, as supplemented by TSTF-419-A, and the guidance contained in the August 4, 2011 USNRC letter (Reference 4) which requires the full methodology citation in TS Section 5.6 ("Reporting Requirements").

Attachment 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes 4.2 Precedent The USNRC has approved similar license amendments to relocate P-T limit curves to a PTLR.

Recent examples for boiling water reactor plants include:

1) Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station (License Amendment No. 269 issued by USNRC letter dated September 30,2008 - ADAMS Accession No. ML082390685).
2) James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant (License Amendment No. 292 issued by USNRC letter dated October 3, 2008 - ADAMS Accession No. ML082630385).

4.3 No Significant Hazards Consideration Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) has evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment by focusing on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, "Issuance of amendment," as discussed below.

1. Do the proposed changes involve a significant increase" in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No The proposed changes modify the TS by replacing references to existing reactor vessel heatup and cooldown rate limits and P-T limit curves with references to the PTLR. The proposed amendment also adopts the USNRC-approved methodology of the GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Licensing Topical Report NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, for the preparation of the PBAPS, Units 2 and 3 P-T limit curves. In 10 CFR 50, Appendix G, requirements are established to protect the integrity of the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary in nuclear power plants. Implementing the USNRC-approved methodology for calculating P-T limit curves and relocating those curves to the PTLR provide an equivalent level of assurance that Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary integrity will be maintained, as specified in 10 CFR 50, Appendix G.

The proposed changes do not adversely affect accident initiators or precursors, and do not alter the design assumptions, conditions, or configuration of the plant or the manner in which the plant is operated and maintained. The ability of structures, systems, and components to perform their intended safety functions is not altered or prevented by the proposed changes, and the assumptions used in determining the radiological consequences of previously evaluated accidents are not affected.

Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. .

2. Do the proposed changes create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No Page 7

Attachment 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes The change in methodology for calculating P-T limits and the relocation of those limits to the PTLR do not alter or involve any design basis accident initiators. Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary integrity will continue to be maintained in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix G, and the assumed accident performance of plant structures, systems and components will not be affected. These changes do not involve any physical alteration of the plant (Le., no new or different type of equipment will be installed), and installed equipment is not being operated in a new or different manner. Thus, no new failure modes are introduced.

Therefore, the proposed changes do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

3. Do the proposed changes involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No The proposed changes do not affect the function of the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary or its response during plant transients. By calculating the P-T limits using USNRC-approved methodology, adequate margins of safety relating to Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary integrity are maintained. The proposed changes do not alter the manner in which safety limits, limiting safety system settings, or limiting conditions for operation are determined. There are no changes to setpoints at which protective actions are initiated, and the operability requirements for equipment assumed to operate for accident mitigation are not affected.

Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based on the above evaluation, Exelon concludes that the proposed amendment presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and accordingly, a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified.

4.4 Conclusions In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission1s regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or the health and safety of the public.

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

Exelon has determined that the proposed amendment would change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 1I CFR 20, IIStandards for Protection Against Radiation. However, the proposed amendment does not involve: (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluent that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in Page 8

Attachment 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes 10 CFR 51.22, "Criterion for categorical exclusion; identification of licensing and regulatory actions eligible for categorical exclusion or otherwise not requiring environmental review, II paragraph (c)(9). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22, paragraph (b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment needs to be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.

Res PIT limits B 3.4.9 B 3.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM (ReS)

)

B 3.4.9 RCS Pressure and Temperature (PIT) Limits BASES BACKGROUND All components of the Res are designed to withstand effects of cyclic loads due to system pressure and temperature changes. These loads are introduced by startup (heatup) and shutdown (cooldown) operations, power transients, and reactor trips. This LCO limits the pressure and temperature changes during ReS heatup and cool down , within the design assumptions and the stress limits for cycllc operat1on.

The PRESSURE AND ~~~~~~~lcontains PIT limit curves for heatup, TEMPERATURE LIMITS coo own, a n ervice leakage and hydrostatic testing, and REPORT (PTLR) (Ref. 10) also limits the maximum rate of change of reactor coolant temperature. The criticality curve provides limits for both heatup and criticality.

Each PIT limit curve defines an acceptable region for normal operation. The usual use of the curves is operational guidance during heatup or cooldown maneuvering, when pressure and temperature indications are monitored and compared to the applicable curve to determine that operation is within the allowable region.

The LCD establishes operating limits that provide a margin to brittle failure of the reactor vessel and piping of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RePB). The vessel is the component most subject to brittle failure. Therefore, the Leo limits apply to the vessel.

10 CFR 50, Appendix G (Ref. 1), requires the establishment of PIT limits for material fracture toughness requirements of the RepS materials. Reference 1 requires an adequate margin to brittle failure during nonnal operation, abnormal operational transients, and system hydrostatic tests. It mandates the use of the ASHE Code,Section III, Appendix G (Ref. 2).

The actual shift in the RTmy of the vessel material will be established periodically by removing and evaluating th~

irradiated reactor vessel material specimens, in accordance with the UFSAR (Ref. 3) and Appendix H of 10 CFR 50 (Ref. 4). The operating PIT limit curves will be adjusted, as necessary, based on the evaluation findings and the recommendations of Reference 5.

Res PIT limits B 3.4.9 BASES

)

BACKGROUND The PIT limit curves are composite curves established by (continued) superimposing limits derived from stress analyses of those portions of the reactor vessel and head that are the most restrictive. At any specific pressure, temperature, and temperature rate of change, one location within the reactor vessel will dictate the most restrictive limit. Across the span of the PIT limit curves, different locations are more restrictive, and, thus, the curves are composites of the most restrictive regions.

The heatup curve represents a different set of restrictions than the cool down curve because the directions of the therMal gradients through the vessel wall are reversed. The thermal gradient reversal alters the location of the tensile stress between the outer and inner walls.

The criticality limits include the Reference 1 requirement that they be at least 40-F above the heatup curve or the cool down curve and not lower than 60*F above the adjusted reference temperature of the reactor vessel material in the region that is controlling (reactor vessel flange region).

The consequence of violating the LCO limits is that the RCS

")

(,,' has been operated under conditions that can result in brittle failure of the reactor pressure vessel, possibly leading to a nonisolab1e leak or loss of coolant accident.

In the event these limits are exceeded, an evaluation must be performed to determine the effect on the structural integrity of the RCPS components. ASHE Code,Section XI, AppendiX E (Ref. 6), prOVides a recommended methodology for evaluating an operating event that causes an excursion outside the limits.

APPLICABLE The PIT limits are not derived from Design Basis Accident SAFETY ANALYSES (DBA) analyses. They are prescribed during normal operation to avoid encountering pressure, temperature, and temperature rate of change conditions that might cause undetected flaws to propagate and cause nonductile failure of the reactor

. . 1 lnce tie ere are no acceptance limits related to the limits. Rather, the PIT limits are acceptance limits themselves since they preclUde operation in an unanalyzed condition.

APPLICABLE ReS PIT limits satisfy Criterion 2 of the NRC Policy SAFETY ANALYSES Statement.

(continued) leo The elements of this LCD are:

a.

e temperature difference between the reactor coolant in the respective~lation loop and in the

~~ ~re~a~cit~or~v~e~s~se~l~~duringrecirculation pump s ar up; the PTLR,

d. ReS pressure and temperature arT~~~~~~

criticality limits specified in , prior to achieving criticality; and

e. The reac ~e and the head flange temperatures a when tensioning the reactor vessel head bolting s ds.

These limits define allowable operating regions and permit a large nu.o.r of operating cycles while also providing a wide margin to nonductile failure.

The rate of change of temperature limits controls the thermal gradient through the vessel wall and is used as input for calculating the heatup, cool down, and inservice leakage and hydrostatic testing PIT 1i.it curves. Thus, the LCO for the rate of change of temperature restricts stresses caused by thermal gradients and also ensures the validity of the PIT limit curves.

PBAPS UNIT 2 B 3.4-45 Revision No. 0

RCS PIT limits B 3.4.9 i ') BASES LCO Violation of the limits places the reactor vessel outside of (continued) the bounds of the stress analyses and can increase stresses in other RCS components. The consequences depend on siveral factors, as follows:

a. The severity of the departure from the allowable operating pressure temperature regime or the severity of the rate of change of temperature;
b. The length of time the limits were violated (longer violations allow the temperature gradient in the thick vessel walls to become more pronounced); and
c. The existences, sizes, and orientations of flaws in the vessel material.

APPLI CAB ILlTV The potential for violating a PIT limit exists at all times.

For example, PIT limit violations could result from ambient temperature conditions that result in the reactor vessel metal temperature being less than the mini.u. allowed temperature for boltup. Therefore, this LCO is applicable even when fuel is not loaded in the core.

ACTIONS A.I and A.2  ;-1in the PTLR I Operation outside the PIT 1illits~i1e in MODES I, 2, and 3 must be corrected so that the RCPB is returned to a condition that has been verified by stre~s analyses.

The 30 minute Completion Time reflects the urgency of restoring the parameters to within the analyzed range. Most violations will not be severe, and the activity can be accomplished in this time in a controlled manner.

Besides restoring operation within limits, an evaluation is required to dete~ine if RCS operation can continue. The evaluation must verify the RCPB integrity remains acceptable and must be completed if continued operation is desired.

Several methods .ay be used, including comparison with pre-analyzed transients in the stress analyses, new analyses, or inspection of the components.

ASME Code,Section XI, Appendix E (Ref. 6), may be used to support the evaluation. However, its use is restricted to evaluation of the vessel belt1ine.

The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time is reasonable to accomplish the evaluation of a .ild violation. More severe violations may require special. event specific stress analyses or inspections. A favorable evaluation must be completed if continued operation is desired.

Condition A is modified by a Note requiring Required Action A.2 be completed whenever the Condition is entered.

The Note emphasizes the need to perfo~ the evaluation of the effects of the excursion outside the allowable limits.

Restoration alone per Required Action A.I 1s insufficient because higher than analyzed stresses may have occurred and may have affected the RePB integrity.

8.1 and 9.2 If a Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition A are not met, the plant must be placed in a lower MODE because either the Res remained in an unacceptable PIT region for an extended period of increased stress, or a sufficiently severe event caused entry into an unacceptable region. Either possibility indicates a need for more careful examination of the event, best accomplished with the Res at reduced pressure and temperature. W1.th the reduced pressure and temperature conditions, the possibility of propagation of undetected flaws is decreased.

Pressure and temperature are reduced by placing the plant in at least MODE 3 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and in MODE 4 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />.

REQUIREMENTS Performing the Surveillance within 15 minutes before control rod withdrawal for the purpose of achieving criticality provides adequate assurance that the limits will not be exceeded between the time of the Surveillance and the time of the control rod withdrawal.

in the PTLR 58 3.4.9.3 and 58 3,4,9,4 Differential temperatures within the applicable limits ensure that thermal stresses resulting fro. the startup of an idle recirculation pump will not exceed design allowances. In addition, compliance with these limits ensures that the assumptions of the analysis for the startup of an idle recirculation loop (Ref. 9) are satisfied.

Performing the Surveillance within IS minutes before starting the idle recirculation pump provides adequate assurance that the limits will not be exceeded between the time of the Surveillance and the time of the idle pump start.

An acceptable means of demonstrating compliance with the temperature differential requirement in SR 3.4.9.4 is to compare the temperatures of the operating recirculation loop and the idle loop.

SR 3.4.9.3 and SR .3.4.9.4 have been modified by a Note that requires the Surveillance to be met only 1n MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. In MODE 5, the overall stress on limiting components is lower. Therefore,41 limits are not required. The Note also states the SR is only required to be met during a recirculation pump startup, since this is when the stresses occur.

in the PTLR Lim; on the reactor vessel flange and head flange temperatures are generally bounded by the other PIT limits during system heatup and cooldown. However, operations approaching MODE 4 fro. MODE 5 and in MODE 4 w;th ReS temperature less than or equal to certain specified values require assurance that these temperatures meet the LeO 1imits.

Res PIT limits B 3.4.9 B 3.4 REACTOR COOlANT SYSTEM (ReS)

B 3.4.9 Res Pressure and Temperature (PIT) Limits BASES BACKGROUND All components of the ReS are designed to withstand effects of cyclic loads due to syste. pressure and temperature changes. These loads are introduced by startup (heatup) and shutdown (cooldown) operations, power transients, and reactor trips. This LeO limits the pressure and temperature changes during ReS heatup and cool down , within the design assumptions and the stress limits for cyclic operation.

~onta1nsPIT limit curves for heatup, The PRESSURE AND , rvlce leakage and hydrostatic testing, and TEMPERATURE LIMITS also limits the maximum rate of change of reactor coolant REPORT (PTLR) (Ref. 9) temperature. The criticality curve provides limits for both heatup and criticality.

Each PIT limit curve defines an acceptable region for normal operation. The usual use of the curves is operational guidance during heatup or cooldown maneuvering, when pressure and temperature indications are monitored and

( compared to the applicable curve to determine that operation is within the allowable region.

The LCO establishes operating limits that provide a margin to brittle failure of the reactor vessel and piping of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RePB). The vessel is the component most subject to brittle failure. Therefore, the LCO limits apply to the vessel.

10 CFR 50, Appendix G (Ref. 1), requires the establishment of PIT limits for material fracture toughness requirements of the Reps materials. Reference 1 requires an adequate margin to brittle failure during normal operation, abnormal operational transients, and system hydrostatic tests. It mandates the use of the ASHE Code, Section lIlt Append;x G (Ref. 2).

The actual shift in the RT.T of the vessel material will be established periodically by removing and evaluating the irradiated reactor vessel material specimens, in accordance with the UFSAR (Ref. 3) and Appendix H of 10 CFR 50 (Ref. 4). The operating PIT limit curves will be adjusted, as necessary, based on the evaluation findings and the recommendat;ons of Reference 5.

These limits define allowable operating regions and permit a large number of operating cycles while also providing a wide margin to nonducti1e failure.

The rate of change of temperature limits controls the thermal gradient through the vessel wall and is used as input for calculating the heatup, cool down, and inservice leakage and hydrostatic testing PIT limit curves. Thus, the lCO for the rate of change of temperature restricts stresses caused by thermal gradients and also ensures the validity of the PIT limit curves.

PBAPS UNIT 3 B 3.4-45 Revision No. 0

Res PIT Limits B 3.4.9 BASES LCO Violation of the limits places the reactor vessel outside of (continued) the bounds of the stress analyses and can increase stresses in other ReS components. The consequences depend on several factors, as follows:

a. The severity of the departure from the allowable operating pressure temperature regime or the severity of the rate of change of temperature;
b. The length of time the limits were violated (longer violations allow the temperature grad'1ent in the thick vessel walls to become more pronounced); and
c. The existences, sizes, and orientations of flaws in the vessel material.

APPLICABILITY The potential for violating a PIT limit exists at all times.

For example, PIT limit violations could result from ambient temperature conditions that result in the reactor vessel metal temperature being less than the minimum allowed temperature for boltup. Therefore, this LeO is applicable even when fuel is not loaded in the core.

-1in the PTLR ACTIONS A*1 an_d A*-2 It
..n _

Operation outside the PIT limits while in MODES 1, 2, and 3 must be corrected so that the RepS is returned to a condition that has been verified by stress analyses.

The 30 minute Completion Time reflects the urgency of restoring the parameters to within the analyzed range. Most violations will not be severe, and the activity can be accomplished in this time in a controlled manner.

Besides restoring operation within limits, an evaluation is required to dete~1ne if ReS operation can continue. The evaluation must verify the RepS integrity remains acceptable and must be completed if continued operation is desired.

Several methods may be used, including comparison with pre-analyzed transients in the stress analyses, new analyses, or inspection of the components.

ASHE Code,Section XI, Append;x E (Ref. 6), may be used to support the evaluat;on. However, its use is restricted to evaluation of the vessel beltl1ne.

The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time is reasonable to accomplish the evaluation of a .ild violation. More severe violations may require special, event specific stress analyses or inspections. A favorable evaluation must be completed if continued operation is desired.

Condition A is modified by a Note requiring Required Action A.2 be cOMpleted whenever the Condition is entered.

The Note emphasizes the need to perform the evaluation of the effects of the excursion outside the allowable limits.

Restoration alone per Required Action A.I is insufficient because higher than analyzed stresses may have occurred and may have affected the RepS integrity.

B.1 and 8.2 If a Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition A are not met, the plant must be placed in a lower MODE because either the Res remained in an unacceptable PIT region for an extended period of increased stress, or a

( sufficiently severe event caused entry into an unacceptable region. Either possibility indicates a need for more careful examination of the event, best accomplished with the Res at reduced pressure and temperature. With the reduced pressure and temperature conditions, the possibility of propagation of undetected flaws is decreased.

Pressure and temperature are reduced by placing the plant in at least MODE 3 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and in MODE 4 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

in the PTLR e.1 and C.2 Operation outside the PIT limits n other than MODES 1, 2, and 3 (including defueled conditions) must be corrected so that the Rep8 is returned to a condition that has been verified by stress analyses. The Required Action must be initiated without delay and continued until the limits are restored.

an evaluation is required to determine if ReS operation is allowed. rhts evaluation must verify that the RepS integrity is acceptable and must be completed before approaching critical1ty or heat1ng up to > 212°F. Several methods may be used, including comparison with pre-analyzed transients, new analyses, or inspection of the components.

Plant procedures specify the pressure and temperature monitoring points to be used during the performance of this Surveillance. The Surveillance Frequency is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program.

Surveillance for heatup, cooldown. or inservice leakage and hydrostatic testing may be discontinued when the criteria given in the relevant plant procedure for ending the activity are satisfied.

This SR has been modified with a Note that requires this Surveillance to be performed only during system heatup and cooldown operations and ;nserv;ce leakage and hydrostatic testing.

Res PIT Limits B 3.4.9 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3,4,9,2 (continued)

REQUIREMENTS Perfo~ing the Surveillance within 15 minutes before control rod withdrawal for the purpose of achieving criticality provides adequate assurance that the limits will not be exceeded between the time of the Surveillance and the time of the control rod withdrawal.

in the PTLR SR 3.4,9,3 and sa 3.4,9,4 Differential temperatures within the applicable limits ensure that thermal stresses resulting from the startup of an idle recirculation pump will not exceed design allowances. In addition, compliance with these limits ensures that the assumptions of the analysis for the startup of an idle recirculation loop (Ref. 8) are satisfied.

Performing the Surveillance within 15 minutes before starting the idle recirculation pump provides adequate assurance that the limits will not be exceeded between the time of the Surveillance and the time of the idle pump start.

An acceptable means of demonstrating compliance with the temperature differential requirement in SR 3.4.9,4 is to compare the temperatures of the operating recirculation loop and the idle loop.

SR 3,4.9.3 and SR 3.4.9.4 have been modified by a Note that requires the Surveillance to be met only in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. In MODE 5, the overall stress on limiting components is lower. Therefore, 41 limits are not required. The Note also states the SR is only required to be met during a recirculation pump startup, since this is when the stresses occur.

SR 3,4.9.5, S8 3.4.9.6, and S8 3.4.9.7 lin the PTLR

~ on the reactor vessel flange and head flange temperatures are generally bounded by the other PIT limits during system heatup*and cooldown. However, operations approaching MODE 4 from MODE 5 and in MODE 4 with ReS temperature less than or equal to certain specified values require assurance that these temperatures meet the lCO 1imits.

EPRI made a substantial economic investment to develop the Proprietary Infonnation and, by prohibiting public disclosure, EPRI derives an economic benefit in the form of licensing royalties and other additional fees from the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information. If the Proprietary Information were publicly available to consultants and/or other businesses providing services in the electric and/or nuclear power industry, they would be able to use the Proprietary Information for their own commercial benefit and profit and without expending the substantial economic resources required of EPRI to develop the Proprietary Information.
c. EPRl's classification of the Proprietary Information as trade secrets is justified by the Uniform Trade Secrets Act which California adopted in 1984 and a version of which has been adopted by over forty states. The California Uniform Trade Secrets Act. California Civil Code §§3426 - 3426.11 J defines a Dtrade secret" as follows:

(('Trade secref means information, inclUding a formula, pattern, compilation, program device, method, technique, or process, that:

(1) Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and (2) Is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy."

d. The Proprietary Information contained therein are not generally known or available to the public. EPRJ developed the Intonnatlon only after making a determination that the Proprietary Information was not available trom public sources. EPRI made a substantial investment of both money and employee hours in the development of the Proprietary Information. EPRI was required to devote these resources and effort to derive the Proprietary Information. As a result of such effort and cost, both in terms of dollars spent and dedicated employee time, the Proprietary Information is highly valuable to EPRI.
e. A public disclosure of the Proprietary Information would be highly likely to cause substantial harm to EPRI's competitive position and the ability of EPRI to license the Proprietary Information both domestically and internationally. The Proprietary Information can only be acquired and/or duplicated by others using an eqUivalent investment of time and effort.

I have read the foregoing and the matters stated herein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and belief. I make this affidavit under penalty of pe~ury under the laws of the United States of America and under the laws of the State of California.

1.0 Purpose The purpose of the PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 Pressure and Temperature Limits Reports (PTLR) is to present operating limits relating to:

1. Reactor Coolant System (RCS) Pressure versus Temperature limits during Heatup, Cooldown and Hydrostatic/Class 1 Leak Testing;
2. RCS Heatup and Cooldown rates;
3. Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) to RCS coolant L\T requirements during Recirculation Pump startups;
4. RPV bottom head coolant temperature to RPV coolant temperature L\T requirements during Recirculation Pump startups;
5. RPV head flange bolt-up temperature limits.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification (TS) 5.6.7, "Reactor Coolant System (RCS) PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE LIMITS REPORT (PTLR)".

2.0 Applicability This report is applicable to the PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 RPVs for up to 32 and 54 Effective Full-Power Years (EFPY).

The following TS is affected by the information contained in this report:

TS 3.4.9 RCS Pressure and Temperature (P/T) Limits 3.0 Methodology The limits in this report were derived from the NRC-approved methods listed in TS 5.6.7, using the specific revisions listed below:

1. The neutron fluence was calculated per Licensing Topical Report, General Electric Methodology for Reactor Pressure Vessel Fast Neutron Flux Evaluation, NEDC-32983P-A, Revision 2, January 2006, approved in Reference 6.1.

3

EPRI Non-Proprietary Information In Accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 As identified by "[ lit PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 PTLR Rev. 0

[EFFECTIVe~ DATE]

2. The pressure and temperature limits were calculated per GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Methodology for Development of Reactor Pressure Vessel Pressure-Temperature Curves, NEDC-33178P-A, Revision 1, June 2009, approved in Reference 6.2.
3. This revision of the pressure and temperature limits is to incorporate the following changes:
  • Initial issuance of the PTLR
  • Application of GEH Topical Report for P-T Curves
  • Fluence application for operation at 3951 Mwt As discussed in Appendix A, PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 participate in the BWRVIP Integrated Surveillance Program (lSP). Unit 2 is a host plant and is scheduled to remove its second capsule at 33.7 EFPY. The third Unit 2 capsule is classified as a standby capsule. As Unit 3 is not a host plant, the surveillance capsules have an ISP status designation of deferred (standby) per Reference 6.4.

The adjusted reference temperature (ART) values for 32 and 54 EFPY included in Appendix B (Unit 2) and Appendix C (Unit 3) are developed considering the latest ISP published surveillance data available that is representative of the applicable materials in the PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 RPV beltline (Reference 6.3). The surveillance data used in the Unit 2 ART calculations is obtained from actual Unit 2 RPV test specimens; the surveillance data used in the Unit 3 ART calculations is not obtained from actual PBAPS Unit 3 RPV test specimens. For Unit 2, the ISP materials did not have the limiting ART.

For Unit 3, the ISP plate material has the limiting ART; however, this value is not considered in the development of the P-T curves because the ISP material is not the identical heat to the material in the Unit 3 RPV.

Should actual surveillance capsules be withdrawn and tested from the PBAPS Unit 3 RPV (e.g., status change to be an ISP host plant under the BWRVIP ISP), compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix H requirements on reporting test results and evaluations on the effects to plant operations parameters (e.g., P-T limits, hydrostatic and leak test conditions) will be in accordance with Section 3 of Reference 6.3.

[EFFECTIVtl, DATE]

Changes to the curves, limits, or parameters within this PTLR, based upon new irradiation fluence data of the RPV, or other plant design assumptions in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), can be made pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59, provided the above methodologies are utilized. The revised PTLR shall be submitted to the NRC upon issuance.

4.0 Operating Limits The pressure-temperature (P-T) curves provided in this report represent steam dome pressure versus minimum vessel metal temperature and incorporate the appropriate non-beltline limits and irradiation embrittlement effects in the beltline region.

The operating limits for pressure and temperature are required for three categories of operation: (a) hydrostatic pressure tests and leak tests, referred to as Curve A; (b) non-nuclear heatup/cooldown (core not critical), referred to as Curve B; and (c) core critical operation, referred to as Curve C.

Complete P-T curves were developed for 32 and 54 EFPY. The P-T curves are provided in Figures 1 through 12, and a tabulation of the curves is included in Table 1 (32 EFPY) and Table 2 (54 EFPY) for Unit 2 and in Table 3 (32 EFPY) and Table 4 (54 EFPY) for Unit 3.

Other temperature limits applicable to the RPV are:

  • Heatup and Cooldown rate limit during Hydrostatic and Class 1 Leak Testing: ~

20 of/hour.

  • Normal Operating Heatup and Cooldown rate limit: ~ 100 of/hour.
  • RPV bottom head coolant temperature to RPV coolant temperature ~T limit during Recirculation Pump startup: ~ 145 of.
  • Recirculation loop coolant temperature to RPV coolant temperature ~T limit during Recirculation Pump startup: ~ 50 of.
  • RPV flange and adjacent shell temperature limit: ~ 70 of.

5.0 Discussion The computer codes described in References 6.1 and 6.2 were used in the development of the P-T curves for PBAPS Units 2 and 3.

The method for determining the Initial Reference Temperature of Nil-Ductility Transition (RTNOT) for all vessel materials is defined in Section 4.1.2 of Reference 6.2. Initial RTNOT values for all vessel materials considered are presented in tables in Appendix B (for Unit

2) and Appendix C (for Unit 3) of this report.

For PBAPS Unit 2, the limiting surveillance material, plate heat C2761-2, was considered using Procedure 2 as defined in Appendix I of Reference 6.2. This procedure was used because the target vessel material and the surveillance material are not identical heats.

However, C2761-2 is a beltline plate in the PBAPS Unit 2 vessel, with only one set of test results. The surveillance data should be considered after a second surveillance capsule is tested and credible surveillance data is available.

For PBAPS Unit 3, the limiting surveillance material, plate heat B0673-1, was considered using Procedure 2 as defined in Appendix I of Reference 6.2. This procedure was used because the target vessel material and the surveillance material are not identical heats.

For PBAPS Unit 2, there are four (4) thickness discontinuities in the vessel: (1) between the bottom head dollar plate and the bottom head torus, (2 and 3) between the bottom head torus and the support skirt attachment at two locations, and (4) between the bottom head torus and Shell Ring #1. The P-T curves defined in Section 4.3 of Reference 6.2 are based upon an RTNOT of 50°F for the bottom head Curves A and C, 46°F for the bottom head Curve B, and 48°F for the upper vessel. The 32 EFPY beltline curves are based on an ART of 50°F, and the 54 EFPY beltline curves are based on an ART of 64.2°F.

Curves based on these temperatures bound the requirements due to the thickness discontinuities.

For PBAPS Unit 3, there are four (4) thickness discontinuities in the vessel: (1) between the bottom head dollar plate and the bottom head torus, (2 and 3) between the bottom head torus and the support skirt attachment at two locations, and (4) between the bottom head torus and Shell Ring #1. The P-T curves defined in Section 4.3 of Reference 6.2 are based upon an RTNOT of 54°F for the bottom head Curves A and C, 42°F for the bottom head Curve B, and 44°F for the upper vessel. The 32 EFPY beltline curves are 6

EPRI Non-Proprietary Information In Accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 As identified by "[ l" PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 PTLR Rev. 0

[EFFEatVEOATE]

based on an ART of 78.3°F, and the 54 EFPY beltline curves are based on an ART of S8.6°F. Curves based on these temperatures bound the requirements due to the thickness discontinuities.

The adjusted reference temperature (ART) of the limiting beltline material is used to adjust the beltline P-T curves to account for irradiation effects. Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 (RG 1.99) provides the methods for determining the ART. The RG 1.99 methods for determining the limiting material and adjusting the P-T curves using ART are discussed in this section.

The vessel beltline copper and nickel values, except for the N16 nozzle, were obtained from plant-specific vessel purchase order records, Certified Material Test Reports (CMTRs). The N16 nozzle is fabricated from Alloy 600 material that does not require evaluation for fracture toughness, and was evaluated using the limiting material properties (chemistry and initial RTNDT ) of the adjoining Shell Ring #2. The copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) values were used with Tables 1 and 2 of RG 1.99, to determine a chemistry factor (CF) per Paragraph 1.1 of RG 1.99 for welds and plates, respectively.

ART values for 32 and 54 EFPY are presented in Appendix B for Unit 2 and Appendix C for Unit 3. The ART tables also include plant-specific materials considering best estimate chemistry values obtained from Reference 6.3.

The P-T curves for the non-beltline region were conservatively developed for a Boiling Water Reactor Product Line 6 (BWR/6) with nominal inside diameter of 251 inches. The analysis is considered appropriate for PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 because the plant-specific geometric values are bounded by the generic analysis for the large BWR/6. The generic value was adapted to the conditions at PBAPS using plant-specific RTNOT values for the reactor pressure vessel.

The peak RPV 10 fluence used in the P-T curve evaluation for Unit 2 at 32 EFPY is 2 2 9.54e17 n/cm and at 54 EFPY is 1.61e18 n/cm

  • These values were calculated using methods that comply with the guidelines of RG 1.190, (as discussed in Reference 6.1).

This fluence applies to the lower-intermediate shell plates and longitudinal welds. The fluence is adjusted for the lower plates, associated longitudinal welds, and the girth weld based upon an attenuation factor of 0.764; hence, the peak 10 surface fluence for 2

these components is 7.2ge17 n/cm for 32 EFPY and 1.23e18 n/cm 2 for 54 EFPY.

Similarly, the fluence is adjusted for the N16 nozzle based upon an attenuation factor of 7

EPRI Non-Proprietary Information In Accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 As identified by n[ In PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 PTLR Rev. 0

[EFFE~IV6~OAJ~]

2 0.353; hence the peak 10 surface fluence used for this component is 3.37e17 n/cm for 2

32 EFPY and 5.6ge17 n/cm for 54 EFPY.

The peak RPV 10 fluence used in the P-T curve evaluation for Unit 3 at 32 EFPY is 9.07e17 n/cm 2 and at 54 EFPY is 1.53e18 n/cm 2

  • These values were calculated using methods that comply with the gUidelines of RG 1.190, (as discussed in Reference 6.1).

This fluence applies to the lower-intermediate shell plates and longitudinal welds. The fluence is adjusted for the lower plates, associated longitudinal welds, and the girth weld based upon an attenuation factor of 0.62; hence, the peak 10 surface fluence for 2

these components is 5.62e17 n/cm for 32 EFPY and 9.48e17 n/cm 2 for 54 EFPY. PBAPS Unit 3 has an additional intermediate shell in the beltline region. The fluence for the peak location in this shell is based upon an attenuation factor of 0.624; hence, the peak 10 surface fluence for these components is 5.65e17 n/cm 2 for 32 EFPY and 2

9.54e17 n/cm for 54 EFPY. Similarly, the fluence is adjusted for the N16 nozzle based upon an attenuation factor of 0.372; hence the peak 10 surface fluence used for this 2

component is 3.37e17 n/cm for 32 EFPY and 5.6ge17 n/cm 2 for 54 EFPY.

The P-T curves for the heatup and cooldown operating conditions at a given EFPY apply for both the 1/4T and 3/4T locations. When combining pressure and thermal stresses, it is usually necessary to evaluate stresses at the 1/4T location (inside surface flaw) and the 3/4T location (outside surface flaw). This is because the thermal gradient tensile stress of interest is in the inner wall during cooldown and the outer wall during heatup.

However, as a conservative simplification, the thermal gradient stress at the 1/4T location is assumed to be tensile for both heatup and cooldown. This results in the approach of applying the maximum tensile stress at the 1/4T location. This approach is conservative because irradiation effects cause the allowable toughness, Klr, at 1/4T to be less than that at 3/4T for a given metal temperature. This approach causes no operational difficulties, since the BWR is at steam saturation conditions during normal operation, well above the heatup/cooldown curve limits.

For the core not critical curve (Curve B) and the core critical curve (Curve C), the P-T curves specify a coolant heatup and cooldown temperature rate of ~ 100°F/hr for which the curves are applicable. However, the core not critical and the core critical curves were also developed to bound transients defined on the RPV thermal cycle diagram and the nozzle thermal cycle diagrams. For the hydrostatic pressure and leak test curve 8

EPRI Non-Proprietary Information In Accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 As identified by "[ l" PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 PTLR Rev. 0

[EFFECTIVE DATE]

(Curve A), a coolant heatup and cooldown temperature rate of :5: 20°F/hr must be maintained. The P-T limits and corresponding heatup/cooldown rates of either Curve A or B may be applied while achieving or recovering from test conditions. Curve A applies during pressure testing and when the limits of Curve B cannot be maintained.

For PBAPS Unit 2, plate heat C2873-1 is the limiting material for the beltline region for 32 and 54 EFPY. The initial RTNOT for plate heat C2873-1 material is -GoF. The generic pressure test P-T curve is applied to the PBAPS Unit 2 beltline curve by shifting the P vs.

(T - RTNOT) values to reflect the ART value of 50°F for 32 EFPY and 64.2°F for 54 EFPY.

Using the fluence discussed above, the P-T curves are not beltline limited for Curves A, B, or C, for 32 or 54 EFPY.

For PBAPS Unit 3, plate heat C2773-2 is the limiting material for the beltline region for 32 and 54 EFPY. The initial RTNDT for plate heat C2773-2 material is 10°F. The generic pressure test P-T curve is applied to the PBAPS Unit 3 beltline curve by shifting the P vs.

(T - RTNDT) values to reflect the ART value of 78.3°F for 32 EFPY and 88.6°F for 54 EFPY.

Using the fluence discussed above, the P-T curves are not beltline limited for Curves A, B, or C, for 32 EFPY. For 54 EFPY, Curve A is beltline limited at pressures above 1070 psig and Curves Band Care beltline limited at pressures above 1160 psig.

In order to ensure that the limiting vessel discontinuity has been considered in the development of the P-T curves, the methods in Sections 4.3.2.1 and 4.3.2.2 of Reference 6.2 for the non-beltline and beltline regions, respectively, are applied.

Appendix A: Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program In accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix H, Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Requirements, the first surveillance capsule was removed from the PBAPS Unit 2 reactor vessel after Cycle 7, during refueling outage (RFO) 7. The surveillance capsule contained flux wires for neutron fluence measurement, Charpy V-Notch impact test specimens and uniaxial tensile test specimens fabricated using materials from the vessel materials within the core beltline region.

The flux wires and test specimens removed from the capsule were tested according to ASTM E18S-82. The methods and results of testing are presented in Reference 6.7, as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendices G and H. After testing, a reconstituted capsule was prepared and installed in the vessel during RFO 8.

The' first surveillance capsule was removed from the PBAPS Unit 3 reactor vessel after Cycle 7, during refueling outage (RFO) 7. The surveillance capsule contained flux wires for neutron fluence measurement, Charpy V-Notch impact test specimens and uniaxial tensile test specimens fabricated using materials from the vessel materials within the core beltline region.

The flux wires and test specimens removed from the capsule were tested according to ASTM E18S-82. The methods and results of testing are presented in Reference 6.8, as reqUired by 10 CFR 50, Appendices G and H. After testing, a reconstituted capsule was prepared and installed in the vessel during RFO 8.

As described in PBAPS Unit 2 and PBAPS Unit 3 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR)

Section 4.2.6, Inspection and Testing, the Integrated Surveillance Program (lSP) will determine the removal schedule for the remaining PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 surveillance capsules. The PBAPS material surveillance program is administered in accordance with the BWR Vessel and Internals Project (VIP) ISP. The ISP combines the US BWR surveillance programs into a single integrated program. This program uses similar heats of materials in the surveillance programs of BWRs to represent the limiting materials in other vessels. It also adds data from the BWR Supplemental Surveillance Program (SSP). Per the BWRVIP ISP, Unit 2 is a host plant; the second Unit 2 capsule is scheduled to be removed at 33.7 EFPY and the remaining capsules are classified as "Standby". Per the BWRVIP ISP, Unit 3 is not a host plant, and the remaining capsules are classified as "Standby".

-I-I~ RESEARCH INSTITUTE AFFIDAVIT RE: Request for Withholding of the Following Proprietary Information Included In::

Enclosure 1 7491-1-2S83W9-HEO-1 Peach Bottom RAI Response - Proprietary I, Neil Wilmshurst, being dUly sworn, depose and state as follows:

I am the Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer at Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. whose principal office is located at 3420 Hillview Avenue, Palo Alto, California ("EPRI1 and I have been specifically delegated responsibility for the above-listed report that contains EPRI Proprietary Information that is sought under this Affidavit to be withheld "Proprietary Information". I am authorized to apply to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC") for the wHhholding of the Proprietary Information on behalf of EPRI.

EPRI requests that the Proprietary Information be withheld from the public on the following bases:

Withholding Based Upon Privileged And Confidential Trade Secrets Or Commercial Or Financial Information:

a. The Proprietary Information is owned by EPRI and has been held in confidence by EPRI. All entities accepting copies of the Proprietary Information do so subject to written agreements imposing an obligation upon the recipient to maintain the confidentiality of the Proprietary Information. The Proprietary Information is disclosed only to parties who agree, in writing, to preserve the confidentiality thereof.
b. EPRI considers the Proprietary Information contained therein to constitute trade secrets of EPRI. As such, EPRI holds the Information in confidence and disclosure thereof is strictly limited to individuals and entities who have agreed, in writing, to maintain the confidentiality of the Information.

EPRI made a substantial economic investment to develop the Proprietary Information and, by prohibiting public disclosure, EPRI derives an economic benefit in the form of licensing royalties and other additional fees from the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information. If the Proprietary Information were pUblicly available to consultants and/or other businesses providing services in the electric and/or nuclear power industry, they would be able to use the Proprietary Information for their own commercial benefit and profit and without expending the substantial economic resources required of EPRI to develop the Proprietary Information.

c. EPRI's classification of the Proprietary Information as trade secrets is justified by the Uniform Trade Secrets Act which California adopted in 1984 and a version of which has been adopted by over forty states. The California Uniform Trade Secrets Act. California Civil Code §§3426 - 3426.11, defines a "trade secret" as follows:

"'Trade secref means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program device, method, technique, or process, that:

(1) Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and (2) Is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy."

d. The Proprietary Information contained therein are ,not generally known or available to the public. EPRI developed the Information only after making a determination that the Proprietary Information was not available from public sources. EPRI made a substantial investment of both money and employee hours in the development of the Proprietary Information. EPRI was required to devote these resources and effort to derive the Proprietary Information. As a result of such effort and cost, both in terms of dollars spent and dedicated employee time, the Proprietary Information is highly valuable to EPRI.
e. A public disclosure of the Proprietary Information would be highly likely to cause substantial harm to EPRI's competitive position and the ability of EPRI to license the Proprietary Information both domestically and internationally. The Proprietary Information can only be acquired and/or duplicated by others using an equivalent investment of time and effort.

I have. read the foregoing and the matters stated herein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and belief. I make this affidavit under penalty of pe~ury under the laws of the United States of America and under the laws of the State of California.

GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC AFFIDAVIT I, Louis M. Quintana, state as follows:

(1) I am the Program Manager, EHS, GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC (GEH). I have been delegated the function of reviewing the information described in paragraph (2) which is sought to be withheld, and have been authorized to apply for its withholding.

(2) The information sought to be withheld is contained in GEH letter, 7491-1-2S83W9-HEO-l, Larry Beese (GEH) to Jeremy Searer (Exelon), "GEH Responses to Potential RAls," dated April 4, 2012. The proprietary information in Enclosure 1 entitled, "Peach Bottom RAJ Response-Proprietary," is identified by a dotted underline inside double square brackets.

((Th.i.~ .. ~.~.l}J.t;n.~~.j~ ...'Jn... ~~p:mRI~~:~!J]. In each case, the superscript notation {J} refers to Paragraph (3) of this affidavit that provides the basis for the proprietary determination (3) In making this application for withholding of proprietary information of which it is the owner or licensee, GEH relies upon the exemption from disclosure set forth in the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 USC Sec. 552(b)(4), and the Trade Secrets Act, 18 USC Sec. 1905, and NRC regulations 10 CFR 9. 17(a)(4), and 2.390(a)(4) for trade secrets (Exemption 4). The material for which exemption from disclosure is here sought also qualifies under the narrower definition of trade secret, within the meanings assigned to those tenns for purposes of FOIA Exemption 4 in, respectively, Critical Mass Energy Project v. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 975 F2d 871 (DC Cir. 1992), and Public Citizen Health Research Group v. FDA, 704 F2d 1280 (DC Cir. 1983).

(4) The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the reasons set forth in paragraphs (4)a. and (4)b. Some examples of categories of information that fit into the definition of proprietary information are:

a. Information that discloses a process, method, or apparatus, including supporting data and analyses, where prevention of its use by GEH's competitors without license from GEH constitutes a competitive economic advantage over GEH and/or other companies.
b. Information that, if used by a competitor, would reduce their expenditure of resources or improve their competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing of a similar product.
c. Information that reveals aspects of past, present, or future GEH customer-funded development plans and programs, that may include potential products of GEH.
d. Information that discloses trade secret and/or potentially patentable subject matter for which it may be desirable to obtain patent protection.

Affidavit for 7491-1-2S83W9-HEO-l Affidavit Page 1 of 3

(5) To address 10 CFR 2.390(b)(4), the information sought to be withheld is being submitted to the NRC in confidence. The information is of a sort customarily held in confidence by GEH, and is in fact so held. The information sought to be withheld has, to the best of my knowledge and belief, consistently been held in confidence by GEH, not been disclosed publicly, and not been made available in public sources. All disclosures to third parties, including any required transmittals to the NRC, have been made, or must be made, pursuant to regulatory provisions or proprietary and/or confidentiality agreements that provide for maintaining the information in confidence. The initial designation of this information as proprietary information, and the subsequent steps taken to prevent its unauthorized disclosure are as set forth in the following paragraphs (6) and (7).

(6) Initial approval of proprietary treatment of a document is made by the manager of the originating component, who is the person most likely to be acquainted with the value and sensitivity of the information in relation to industry knowledge, or who is the person most likely to be subject to the terms under which it was licensed to GEH. Access to such documents within GEH is limited to a "need to know" basis.

(7) The procedure for approval of external release of such a document typically requires review by the staff manager, project manager, principal scientist, or other equivalent authority for technical content, competitive effect, and determination of the accuracy of the proprietary designation. Disclosures outside GEH are limited to regulatory bodies, customers, and potential customers, and their agents, suppliers, and licensees, and others with a legitimate need for the information, and then only in accordance with appropriate regulatory provisions or proprietary and/or confidentiality agreements.

(8) The information identified in paragraph (2) above is classified as proprietary because it contains results of an analysis performed by GEH to support the Peach Bottom Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) Technical Specification 5.6.7 changes. This analysis is part of the GEH PTLR methodology. Development of the PTLR methodology and the supporting analysis techniques and information, and their application to the design, modification, and processes were achieved at a significant cost to GEH.

The development of the evaluation methodology along with the interpretation and application of the analytical results is derived from the extensive experience database that constitutes a major GEH asset.

(9) Public disclosure of the information sought to be withheld is likely to cause substantial harm to GEH's competitive position and foreclose or reduce the availability of profit-making opportunities. The information is part of GEH's comprehensive BWR safety and technology base, and its commercial value extends beyond the original development cost.

The value of the technology base goes beyond the extensive physical database and analytical methodology and includes development of the expertise to determine and apply the appropriate evaluation process. In addition, the technology base includes the value derived from providing analyses done with NRC-approved methods.

Affidavit for 7491-1-2S83W9-HEO-I Affidavit Page 2 of 3

The research, development, engineering. analytical and .NRC review costs comprise a substantial investment of time and money by GEH. The precise value of the expertise to devise an evaluation process and apply the correct analytical methodology is difficult to quantify. but it clearly is substantial. GEH's competitive advantage will be lost if its competitors are able to use the results of the GEH experience to normalize or verify their own process or if they are able to claim an equivalent understanding by demonstrating that they can anive at the same or similar conclusions.

The value of this information to GEH would be lost if the information were disclosed to the public. Making such information available to competitors without their having been required to undertake a similar expenditure of resources would unfairly provide competitors with a windfall. and deprive GEH of the opportunity to exercise its competitive advantage to seek an adequate return on its large investment in developing and obtaining these very valuable analytical tools.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing affidavit and the matters stated therein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, infonnation, and belief.

Executed on this 4 th day of April 2012.

Response

BWRVIP-135, Revision 1 provides the surveillance data considered in determining the chemistry and any adjusted Chemistry Factors' (CF) for the beltline materials.

Excerpt from BWRVIP-135, Revision 1 (used by permission)

For PBAPS Unit 2, the Integrated Surveillance Program (ISP) representative plate, heat

[ ], is not the target plate, but is a plate heat in the beltline region. This heat was contained in one (1) PBAPS Unit 2 capsule that has been tested and analyzed. Data was obtained from two (2) specimens from the capsule and one data set from the plant-specific Certified Material Test Report (CMTR). The resultant chemistry is [ ] Cu and [ ] Ni.

The CF from Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 (RG1.99) is 65°F. No fitted CF has been determined as there has only been one (1) capsule tested. Therefore, the Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART) table evaluated the ISP plate material using the RG1.99 CF. This material was considered in determining the limiting ART for the PT curves; however, this is not the limiting material.

The CF from RG1.99 is 111.25°F; the fitted CF is 148.71°F. The fitted CF for the plate material is not applicable for the PBAPS Unit 3 ART evaluation because the ISP plate heat, [ ], is not the target vessel plate. Therefore, the ART table evaluated the ISP plate material using the RG1.99 CF. This material was not considered in determining the limiting ART for the PT curves.

Page 7 of 13 GGNS RAI #7 Provide additional detail for the non-beltline analysis conducted in the following areas in order for the NRC staff to complete independent verification of the proposed PT limits:

a. Identify limiting materials for the Reference Temperature for Nil Ductility Transition (RTNOT) values used to shift the generic Bottom Head and Upper Vessel PT curves when applying NEDC-33178P-A.
b. The NRC staff identified a limiting RTNOT of 10°F for the Bottom Head Torus Plates, while GGNS assumed a RTNOT of 24.6°F for the Bottom Head Curve B. Support all RTNOT values reported by providing details of any plant-specific analysis conducted.
c. Explain minor differences in assumed RTNOT values for the Bottom Head. Specifically Curves A and C assume a limiting RTNOT of 19°F, while Curve B assumes a limiting RTNOT of 24.6°F.
d. Which region of the RPV is limiting for Curve C < 312 psig.

Response

In order to determine how much to shift the Pressure-Temperature (PT) curves, an evaluation is performed using Tables 4-4a and 4-Sa from NEDC-33178P-A. These tables define the required Temperature minus Reference Temperature of Nil Ductility Transition (T-RTNOT) that is used to adjust the non-shifted curves. Each component listed in these tables is evaluated using the plant-specific initial RTNOT for each component. The required temperature is then determined by adding the T-RTNOT to the plant-specific RTNOT, thereby resulting in the required T for the curve. As the upper vessel curve is initially based on the non-shifted feedwater (FW) nozzle T-RTNOT, all resulting T values are compared to the FW nozzle T. The difference between the maximum T and the FW nozzle T-RTNOT is used to shift the upper vessel curve. The same method is applied for the Control Rod Drive (CRD) curve. In this manner, it is assured that each curve bounds the maximum discontinuity that is represented.

For the PBAPS Unit 2 upper vessel curve, the maximum T value from the method described above is (( )). The initial required T-RTNOT for the ((

)); this is then adjusted by the PBAPS Unit 2-specific maximum ((

)), resulting in (( )). Comparing this to the next limiting value, the (( )), the required T-RTNOT is (( )), which is added to the (( )). It is seen that the

As noted above, this calculation was performed for each component shown in Table 4-4a; only the limiting case is presented here.

For the PBAPS Unit 2 bottom head or CRD ((

(( )). As (( )) than (( )), the PBAPS Unit 2 bottom head (CRD) curve is based on an (( )). As noted above, this calculation was performed for each component shown in Table 4-5a; only the limiting case is presented here.

Appendix H of NEDC-33178P-A contains the details of an analysis performed to determine the baseline requirement (non-shifted) for the ((

)). It can be seen in Section H.5 of Appendix H that the stresses developed in this finite element analysis demonstrated that the ((

Therefore, considering the determination of the required shift from the paragraph above for ((

For Curve C, the upper vessel and beltline regions are bounding at pressures up to 40 psig. For pressures between 40 psig and 312.5 psig, the upper vessel is bounding; this is true for both 32 and 54 EFPY.

For Curve C, the upper vessel and beltline regions are bounding at pressures up to 40 psig. For pressures between 40 psig and 312.5 psig, the upper vessel is bounding; this is true for both 32 and 54 EFPY.

Page 10 of 13 GGNS RAI #8 identifies nozzle N12 as a beltline water level instrument nozzle and notes that an evaluation was conducted using the limiting material properties for the adjoining shell ring, which appears to be appropriate as nozzle N12 is identified as austenitic. Provide details of this evaluation which demonstrates that the drill hole for the beltline water level instrument nozzle is not limiting.

Response

The PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3 N12 nozzle is fabricated from Alloy 600 material. Appendix J of NEDC-33178P-A provides detailed results of an analysis performed for the water level instrumentation nozzle that provides the required stresses for the drill hole in the shell plate.

These stresses were used to generate a specific curve applicable for the water level instrumentation nozzle to assure that this location is bounded in the PT curves. For PBAPS Unit 2 and Unit 3, the water level instrumentation nozzles are ((

Page 11 of 13 GGNS RAI #9 Provide details on any plant-specific feedwater nozzle evaluation conducted in support of the proposed PT limits or explain why plant-specific evaluation was not required.

Response

An evaluation was performed for the feedwater nozzle as described in Section 4.3.2.1.3 of NEDC-33178P-A. This evaluation confirmed that the feedwater discontinuity bounds the other discontinuities defined in Table 4-4a of NEDC-33178P-A. The first part of the evaluation is as described in the response to RAI #7, where it is assured that the limiting component that is represented by the upper vessel nozzle curve is bounded. A second evaluation was performed using the PBAPS-specific feedwater nozzle dimensions; this evaluation is shown below to demonstrate that the (( )) curve is applicable to PBAPS Unit 2:
