~f PRELIMINARY DRAFT RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FOR SEABROOK STATION ALKALI-SILICA REACTION DEGRADATION OF CONCRETE (PREDECISIONAL - OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR INTERNAL BRAINSTORMING & COMMENT)
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated September 12, 2011 (Agencywide Documents Access and Manag nt Sys em (ADAMS) Accession No. ML1116105300), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Co sion M Region I Office requested technical assistance from the Office of Nuclear Ron (NRR) to evaluate the potential consequence of alkali-silica reaction ( ) a of a safety-related concrete structure at Seabrook Station. More specifi ally, d NRR review for adequacy of a NextEra prompt operability determination (POD)' Ited open issues, NRC staff should be-able to identify what additional i tib- ,ne d in order to fully evaluate the impact of the degradation on the current I nsin si n basis in the final operability determination for structures important-to-safety the pla s h primary case for review, NextEra evaluated the Seabrook Control Buildi lectri Tunnel and Penetration Room) in light of the recently discovered degradati e3 i er structures important-to-safety within the scope of the maintenance rule h e aso 1: affected by the ASR problem.
Region I requested NRR assistance to-addres e a ove ncerns by providing answers to the five Task Interface Agreement (TIA) que w ed in Section 3.0 "Evaluation" of this response.
2.0 BACKGROUND
NextEra Energy (the licensee d co rete core samples.from the interior surface of exterior walls o the Cont n of their assessment to support renewal of their license. In AugL st 20101 sts u as a part of the core sample analysis reported a change in mate ial e T e nalysis reported the presence of ASR-degradation in core samples taken r chr ic walls below grade, with reductions reported in the concrete compressive st h mo of elasticity from that expected. NextEra evaluated these parametric r i0 od in the impact on the design basis of the Control Building. By their pro th lice erforr d an immediate and prompt operability determination (POD) and conc . rily, that the Control Building (CB) was operable but with reduced stre s to esign capacity.
Ne ntinue to evaluate the extent of this condition for five other safety related concrete buildin The other five buildings for which concrete core samples were taken were: Equipment Vault (ho ing ECCS equipment including that for Residual Heat Removal (RHR)], Radiological Controls Area (RCA) Walkway, Emergency Feedwater Building (EFW), Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) Building, and the Containment Enclosure Building (CEB). As of June 30, 2011 there are two open prompt operability determinations, one for the Control Building and one for the other five buildings collectively. The licensee found additional evidence of ASR in four of the five other buildings and they evaluated that information in a separate immediate and prompt R1 S A4I OFFI L US CN
operability determination using the same evaluation techniques as for the Control Building. This evaluation is also considered preliminary or open. Based on NRC internal discussions, it appears that the calculation methods and correlations that NextEra used in their prompt operability determination may not be fully appropriate in light of the ASR problem.
NextEra's planned actions are two-fold: 1) to follow their operability determination process; and,
- 2) to follow the guidance in NEI 95-10, "Industry Guideline for Implementing the Requirements of 10 CFR Part 54 - The License Renewal Rule," to develop an aging manage t program to support the license renewal application. Possible outcomes to the PODs are: 1) r red conditions (which may not be possible); 2) resolved conditions (use "as is" ce c ge incorporated or Action Request (AR) disposition approved); or 3) current liie i i LB) revised (e.g., 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation). The licensee has posted on th rt e I website their operability determination process for reference (EN-A-203- 1 05, No. 1 on Certrec Document Tab List).
NextEra's proposal related t9 license renewal was describen a I April 14, 2011, under the response to NRC request for additional informati .2.1. 1 g ncywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMSc ion ML11108A131). This letter describes periodic reviews for operability as i a I oped to support the aging management review. At the time, the proposal in de a o analysis (termed "final" by NextEra) of the impact of ASR on the current ce e s n basis, including the extent of the condition, to be completed by June 20 1. ce at le r nd as noted above, the control building POD was kept open; a new im ere completed for the other five building core sample results that were i oJ ed in a xtent of conditions review. The subject NextEra letter also commits to an i r ,iluaion to be completed in March 2012. On June 29, 2011, the NRR Division ice e al issued another "Request for Additional Information" (ADAMS Accessi.o. *11 38) related to key aspects of NextEra's comprehensive plan for assessi AS blem for the Structures Monitoring Program including that for the F i d Containment ("Followup RAI B2.1.31-1, B2.1.31-4, and B2.1.28. The r o to thi letter dated August 11,2011, (ADAMS Accession No. ML1 2 230) es not reflec a comprehensive plan for determining operability/ ncti ity a uildings along with plans for the development of aging manageme re With res to rt irements, Region I reviewed the NextEra current Structures Monitorin od a violation of the maintenance rule for the control building. The find n et il i NRC Inspection Report 05000443/2011002 (ADAMS Accession NL*i 1 3 ). More details related to the newly discovered ASR issue were also doc d in t NRC Inspection Report 05000443/2011007 (ADAMS Accession No. ML1 1 0432) s part of a license renewal inspection. The cover letter for the latter report notes th e agi g management review for the ASR issue is not complete and that there is a need for a continuing review in the Part 50 and 54 areas. The staff of Region I and NRR (Division of Engineering and Division of License Renewal) have been discussing actions since January 2011 to ensure that the Part 50 and 54 reviews are coordinated.
The documents listed below were made available for review on the licensee's "Certrec" internal website (Certrec Document Library Tab List). These documents reflect current NextEra view of operability' for the Control Building and the associated tunnel and penetration room. The 0ýPRYD CI SI L - OF IAýLU 0TEQ=B1 OR &C
"Certrec" system was set up in order to facilitate NRC staff access to NextEra's internal documents. The NRC staff was requested to inform Region I and NextEra if the document is to be printed, for review purposes, prior to doing so.

On April 27, 2011, NRR Division of Engineering provid s oirt y rmi g an initial review of NextEra's basis for acceptability of the reduction in lu city in light of concrete core testing which supported 10 CFR 50.59 scre c wi ut prior NRC staff review and approval. This evaluation and its related des c ment accept the reduced parameters of compressive strength and mods ti for the Control Building and the Containment Enclosure Building as a pot I os' the operability determination (Certrec Document Library Tab List, En s e BI n ontrol Bldg MSP - Design Change Package Description No. EC-272057, .000, o t Modulus of Elasticity Evaluation). The staff questioned the adequacy of t sc ning ion.
The licensee is also plannin a nt ause review for e maintenance rule violation noted above. Corrective actions e om ens've walkdown of all structures important-to safety with suspected c n c rda ce with a revised structures monitoring program procedure t t et th te AC st ndard in the area (ACIl349.3R-02). This has been completed fo co b ing, cont ment enclosure building, and the containment.
Completio ft as s or the other buildings is tentatively December 2011. Further, the licensel s nduc oot cause evaluation of the ASR issue which should be completed noted al I fo . o rati into the planned March 2012 Engineering Evaluation as To ithi the limitations of their testing and analysis, NextEra determined that none of the seismi teg I structures tested.have been found to be outside their design basis and were, therefore, per ble with extent of conditions questions needing be addressed. The Seabrook design and licen ing basis to which the licensee made these determinations was documented in UFSAR Section 3.8. NextEra is willing to address the additional questions from the NRC staff; but, it is Uncertain ifthose questions will be addressed in the final operability determination tentatively scheduled for September 30, 2011. It also remains uncertain what NextEra's comprehensive plan is based on review of their August 11, 2011, response to NRC letter of June 29, 2011.

In light of the newly discovered ASR issue, it appears that NextEra technical personnel are developing new insights for what key aspects must be addressed in the final operability determination for any building with evidence of ASR.

D t ur of this review, Region I requests that NRR specifically identify any concerns with ss ¶rptions, methodologies, or calculations, etc., along with the regulatory or other basis o c oncern; and, notify Region I immediately if NRR finds that any of the reviewed document the control building do not provide reasonable assurance of continued operability of that buildin . As a minimum, the response to this TIA should include an independently developed comprehensive set of issues to be addressed in the final operability determination for the Control Building in order for us to further assess the licensee's process and their new insights gained for all important-to-safety structures with evidence of ASR.

4, No tensile strength testing is being performed on the concrete core samples and this question was raised in the RAI in terms of how shear capacity is being determined. However, the Region I staff believe that the specific parameterof tensile strength of concrete may not be sufficiently accurate and therefore relevant in a constrainedstructure. As the pressure load from the ASR gel increases,that loadmay be transferredto the rebar.Available researchin this area appears to be conflicting. The UFSAR for containment assume concrete in reinforced systems provide no tensile strength. ,
A core sample with ASR does not representthe forces contained in the, this test, in particular,elastic rebound is not considered. For split tensile the frictionalinfluences in the test itself are not accommodated.
