This remains the primary primary strategy to provide power to battery chargers. However, Load Center 20 will also be modified similar to Load Center 19 to provide diverse connection locations to the battery chargers.

This was based on the limited protected inventory of the condensate storage tank (CST) and the primary system makeup storage tank (T-81). Additional inventory in the CST and T-81 will now be protected (see Open Item 013) which increases the volume available for Phase 1 1 of the beyond-design-basis external event (BDBEE). Therefore, the time at which the FLEX pump is required to be deployed and operational has been delayed from hour 4 to hour 8 based on CST and T-81 protected inventory. Additionally, the strategy of refilling the CST has changed such that the CST refill will not be used. used.

ItIt was determined that in order to protect in order protect personnel personnel from the need need to enter enter the SFP area after itit is already boiling boiling that actions should be be taken taken for deployment deployment of SFP cooling equipment SEP cooling equipment (hoses and and monitor nozzles) nozzles) prior prior to the start of boiling. The approximately five hours after event initiation and prior to action will now be taken at approximately SEP boiling in order to mitigate potential habitability concerns after SFP after boiling.

This timing was determined to be unlikely and unsupported by by the RRC for large equipment such as purification units, large units, 4160 V diesel generators, and boration units.

- 9. OIP page 18, in the section for PWR Installed Equipment Phase 1, it is stated that the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater (TDAFW) pump is not credited for seismic events because the turbine driver is not seismically qualified. The TDAFW TDAEW system (including the turbine driver) has now been qualified as seismically robust and is credited for all external events. See Open Item 015 in this report for additional information.

- 10. OIP a modification will be required to provide for remote manual operation of the ADVs to begin cooling down the plant at hour 2. The modification selected, and which will allow for the remote manual operation of the ADVs, is the installation of backup nitrogen bottles to last through Phase 1 1 and connection point for an air compressor to be connected for Phase 2.

- 11. OIP) the level indications for tank T-81 and SIRWT are credited. Because the CST and T-81 are cross-tied, it has been been determined that the level indication for the CST is sufficient to indicate the available inventory in both tanks. Therefore level indication for T-81 is in both redundant and and is not required. SIRWT level indication is not not required because the tank is no longer credited.
