Re: Entergrgy Nuclear Operations,, Inc. (Indiaan Point Nucclear Generrating Units 2 and 3), Docket D Nos. 50-247-LR R and 50-2866-LR ___
Dear Ms. Brancato:
This is a response, on behhalf of Enterrgy Nuclear Operations, T O Inc. (Enterrgy), to youur letters daated Septemb ber 1 and 26, 2011 seekiing documennts pursuant to 10 C.F.R. § 2.336. As A an initial maatter, Entergy restates itss objection too Riverkeepers ongoingg discovery requests r beccause Riverkeeeper may nott seek discovvery in this proceeding p fr from Entergyy, whether byy interrogatoories or otherw wise, except as permittedd in 10 C.F.R R. § 2.336(a)). Nonetheleess, in the sppirit of cooperatiion, but with hout waivingg these objecctions or connceding that the documennts discussedd below aree relevant orr material to the admittedd contentionns, Entergy provides p the following clarificattion of inform mation proviided in our previous p respponse to youur letters seekking documeents related too the metal fatigue f conteention, and provides p two additional documents d thhat we understannd will comp plete Entergyys responsees to your reqquests.
Since your in nitial May 133, 2011 letterr seeking documents relaated to Riverrkeeper Contentioon TC-1B (M Metal Fatiguue), Entergy has diligentlly worked too respond to Riverkeeperrs requests and provided numerous additional documents d too Riverkeepeer. As our associates, Joon Rund andd Ray Kuyleer, discussedd with you onn October 144, we undersstand that theere are two remaininng requests.
DB1/ 682639466
Deborah Brancato October 18, 2011 Page 2 First, on September 1, 2011, Riverkeeper asked for Indian Point specific plant data used in the June 2010 Westinghouse environmentally-assisted fatigue evaluations for certain components. Specifically, you asked whether WCAP-14950, Mitigation and Evaluation of Pressurizer Insurge/Outsurge Transients (Proprietary Log No. 572, Production No.
IPECPROP00059247) (WCAP-14950) contains the referenced plant data, or, if not, where such information was located. As discussed on the October 14 telephone conference, this information is provided in two different documents that Entergy has already disclosed to Riverkeeper, and that we referenced in our August 10, 2011 letter to Riverkeeper:
x Westinghouse Calculation Note Number CN-PAFM-09-63, Rev. 0, Indian Point unit 2 Pressurizer Insurge/Outsurge Transient Development, (Proprietary Log No. 561, Production No. IPECPROP00057991) and x Westinghouse Calculation Note Number CN-PAFM-09-64, Rev. 0, Indian Point Unit 3 Pressurizer Insurge/Outsurge Transient Development, (Log No. 562, Production Number IPECPROP00058077).
As Mr. Rund and Mr. Kuyler further explained, the raw data referenced in these two calculations is voluminous, would be burdensome to obtain and produce, and would be of little use to Riverkeeper. We understand that you agree. Therefore, Entergy has fully responded to your request for plant data.
Second, on May 13, 2011, Riverkeeper asked for information on the heat transfer coefficient equations used in Westinghouses June 2010 environmentally-assisted fatigue evaluations. Entergy responded to that request in its August 8 and September 8, 2011 letters.
More recently, on September 26, 2011, Riverkeeper agreed that WCAP-14950 provides this information for the pressurizer surge nozzles, but asked whether any such comparable information/documents exist for other components, including but not limited to the other components listed in Tables 4.3-13 and 4.3-14 of Entergys License Renewal Application (i.e.,
the vessel shell and lower head/bottom head to shell; vessel inlet and outlet nozzles; RCS piping charging system nozzle; RCS piping safety injection nozzle; and RHR Class 1 piping)[.]
In response to this additional request, Entergy provides two new documents: (1)
Combustion Engineering, Inc., Analytical Report for Indian Point Reactor Vessel - Unit 2, CENC 1110, January 1967; and (2) Combustion Engineering, Inc., Analytical Report for Indian Point Reactor Vessel - Unit 3, CENC 1122, June 1969. A copy of each document is on the enclosed compact disc (CD), in TIFF file format. These documents will be listed in the next update to Entergys mandatory disclosures. By producing the enclosed documents, Entergy does not necessarily concede that the documents are in fact relevant or material to the admitted contentions.
For your convenience, the following table lists the components in Tables 4.3-13 and 4.3-14 of the License Renewal Application, and identifies the documents Entergy has produced that provide information on the heat transfer coefficients used in the fatigue analysis of each location.
DB1/ 68263946
Deborah Brancato October 18, 2011 Page 3 These tables therefore show that Entergy has fully responded to your request for information on heat transfer coefficients.
