FW: Ginna TS change to Increase Containment Air Temperature Importance: High Tom:

After reviewing the RAI response for the subject TS change request the NRC staff needs additional information to justify the containment air temperature increase.

There are two areas of concern and a clarification in the RAI response.

1. The RAI response does include any evaluation of how the accumulator temperature affects the PCT pre-TCD. Westinghouse has previously stated that TCD changes everything. They should have data about the high accumulator temperature cases pre-TCD followed by the effect of TCD after the accumulator temperature has been corrected.
2. The licensee refers to 50.46(a)(3)(i) in their response whereas the RAI refers to 50.46(a)(1)(i).
3. Clarification of what the licensee if referring to when it states that there is ~250F margin to the limiting results. Is this 250F margin between TCD and non-TCD cases or 250F between the limiting case and acceptance criterion? The PCT in the LAR is 2116F which is not 250F from the acceptance criteria of 2200F.

We would like to arrange a conference call to discuss the above concerns. Please let me know if a call can be arranged promptly to support our review process.
