MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 3-REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO REVISE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION FOR CALCULATED PEAK CONTAINMENT INTERNAL PRESSURE (TAC NO. MF1731)

Dear Mr. Heacock:

By letter dated April 25, 2013, Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (the licensee) submitted an amendment to revise the calculated peak containment internal pressure for the design basis loss-of-coolant accident described in Technical Specification 6.8.4.f., "Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program."

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has reviewed the information provided by the licensee and has determined that the enclosed request for additional information (RAI) is needed in order to complete the review. A response to this RAI is requested to be provided within 45 days of the date of this letter.

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO REVISE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION FOR CALCULATED PEAK CONTAINMENT INTERNAL PRESSURE MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 3 DOCKET NO. 50-423 EEEB-1 In the LAR, the licensee states the following:

Change in Pa does not affect environmentally qualified equipment.

The containment temperatures, using the corrected large break LOCA mass and energy (M&E) releases, remain within the bounding containment temperature profile used to qualify equipment.

a. Provide a discussion of the Environmental Qualification (EQ) re-analysis performed to show that the equipment remained qualified. In addition, provide a comparison of the EQ overlays with containment temperature and pressure profiles.
b. Explain how margins are being maintained for qualified equipment in accordance with 10 CFR 50.49.

EEEB-2 Provide a discussion on any impact of the proposed change on areas of the plant outside of containment (e.g., changes to EQ parameters such as temperature and pressure).
