Quad Cities RAI for Relief Request RV-06, (TAC NOS. ME7992 & ME7993)

SUBJECT:

QUAD CITIES NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 - REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RELATED TO RELIEF REQUEST, RV-06, FROM ASME OM CODE APPENDIX I, I-1350(C), FOR MAIN STEAM SAFETY VALVE SET POINT TESTING ASSOCIATED WITH THE FIFTH INSERVICE TESTING (TAC NOS. ME7992 & ME7993)

By letter to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) dated February 15, 2012 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML12046A334), Exelon Generation Company, LLC submitted a relief request from requirements of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Operation and Maintenance Code, specifically Appendix I, I-1350(c)s requirements for Main Steam Safety Valve Set Point Testing for the Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2. The NRC staff has been reviewing the submittal and has determined that the following additional information is needed to complete its review:

Request RV-06 states, in Section 5, If more than one safety valve fails, the sample expansion criteria of Appendix I, 1350(c) will be implemented. Section I-1350 of Mandatory Appendix I is for Class 2 and 3 pressure relief valves. Section I-1320 is for Class 1 pressure relief valves. Also, Request RV-05 is requesting the use of Code Case OMN-17. Please discuss whether, if RV-05 is approved, Code Case OMN-17, primarily Paragraph (1)(c)(2), would also apply to Request RV-06.

The NRC staff considers that timely responses to requests for additional information help ensure sufficient time is available for staff review and contribute toward the NRC=s goal of efficient and effective use of staff resources. If circumstances result in the need to revise the requested response date, please contact me at (301) 415-4050.

I am placing a copy of this email in ADAMS as a publicly-available, official agency record.

Thanks, Carolyn M. Faría Project Manager, Plant Licensing Branch III-2 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 301-415-4050 1
