UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 272 TO RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. NPF-4 AND AMENDMENT NO. 254 TO RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. NPF-7 VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY NORTH ANNA POWER STATION, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-338 AND 50-339
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated February 22, 2013i, the Virginia Electric and Power Company (the licensee) requested a change to the Technical Specifications (TSs) to Facility Operating License Nos. NPF-4 and NPF-7 for North Anna Power Station, Units 1 and 2 (NAPS1 and NAPS2),
respectively. Specifically the licensee requested a change toTS 3.1.6, which specifies the control rod insertion, sequence, and overlap limits.
The proposed TS change will insert text, into Condition A, stating, "for reasons other than Condition C". This text will modify Condition A, for control bank sequence or overlap limits to be consistent with the description of Condition B for control bank insertion limits. The proposed TS change would point to Condition C, which, if applicable, would allow the specified completion time to restore the control bank to within the insertion limit, to be increased from 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.
Condition C is entered when:
control bank A, B, or C is inserted not more than 18 steps below the insertion limit and the bank is immovable, and each control and shutdown rod remains within the limits of LCO 3.1.4, and each shutdown bank remains within the insertion limits of LCO 3.1.5.
The actions that are specified for Condition C are:
C.1 Verify that shutdown margin remains within the limits provided in the COLR (once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />), and C.2 Restore the control bank to within the insertion limit (72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />).
The proposed TS change would allow continued operation, for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, when the sequence and overlap limits are not met. This would be consistent with the current, specified completion time, of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, when control bank insertion limits are not met. The TS completion time, specified in Condition C, allows up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> for finding and correcting an urgent failure condition. An urgent failure alarm stops automatic and overlapped rod motion; and could result in an immovable, but trippable group or bank that is inserted up to 18 steps below the insertion limits.
An urgent failure condition could occur during periodic testing of the control and shutdown rods, during power operation, which is required in order to verify that the rods can be tripped. Rods that are not fully inserted into the core are moved by at least 10 steps, in and out, at least once each quarter. The current test procedure calls for the rods to be moved by 18 steps in each direction. An urgent failure alarm can be triggered when there is a failure in the rod control equipment that impedes the system's ability to move rods.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
The NRC staff evaluated the proposed TS changes with respect to the requirements specified in certain of the General Design Criteria (GDC) for nuclear power plants listed in 10 CFR 50 Appendix A. These are:
GDC-10. Reactor Design GDC-1 0 requires that the reactor core and associated coolant, control, and protection systems be designed with appropriate margin to that specified acceptable fuel design limits (SAFDLs) are not exceeded during any condition of normal operation assure including the effects of anticipated operational occurrences (AOOs).
GDC-26. Reactivity Control System Redundancy and Capability GDC-26 requires that two independent reactivity control systems of different design principles shall be provided. One of the systems shall use control rods, preferably including a positive means for inserting the rods, and shall be capable of reliably controlling reactivity changes to assure that under conditions of normal operation, including anticipated operational occurrences, and with appropriate margin for malfunctions such as stuck rods, specified acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded. The second reactivity control system shall be capable of reliably controlling the rate of reactivity changes resulting from planned, normal power changes (including xenon burnout) to assure acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded. One of the systems shall be capable of holding the reactor core subcritical under cold conditions.
GDC-28, Reactivity Limits GDC-28 requires that the reactivity control systems be designed to assure that the effects of postulated reactivity accidents can neither result in damage to the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) greater than limited local yielding, nor sufficiently disturb the core, its support structures or other reactor pressure vessel internals to impair significantly the capability to cool the core.
In 10 CFR 50.36, "Technical Specifications," the NRC established its regulatory requirements related to the content of TSs. Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36, TS are required to include items in the following five specific categories related to station operation: (1) safety limits, limiting safety system settings, and limiting control settings; (2) limiting conditions for operation; (3) surveillance requirements; (4) design features; and (5) administrative controls.
The proposed change revises the North Anna Unit 1 and 2 Technical Specification limiting conditions for operation (LCO) 3.1.6, which specifies the control rod insertion, sequence, and overlap limits.
With the implementation of specific changes to the LCO Conditions and Surveillance requirements, the intent of the 10 CFR 50.36 regulatory requirements will continue be met.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
The proposed TS change will insert text, into Condition A, stating, "for reasons other than Condition C". This text would make Condition A, for control bank sequence or overlap limits, consistent with the description of Condition B, for control bank insertion limits. The proposed TS change would point to Condition C, which, if applicable, would allow the specified completion time to restore the control bank to within the insertion limit to be increased from 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. The modified TSs, therefore, would allow an increase in completion time from 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to restore the control bank to within the insertion limit, whenever the specifications of Condition C are present.
Exceeding the rod sequence and overlap limits, due to a rod urgent failure (RUF), (i.e., due to the presence of an immovable; but trippable rod), with one control bank inserted up to 18 steps below its insertion limit, for up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, would not produce core radial peaking factors that could lead to exceeding the applicable DNB ratio limits that are needed to meet the SAFDLs during AOOs. Therefore, the requirements of GDC-1 0 are met.
If an RUF occurs (i.e., a control bank is inserted up to 18 steps below its insertion limit) for up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, then the shutdown margin will not be reduced to less than shutdown margin that is assumed in the NAPS accident analyses. The RUF would not affect the second reactivity control system (the chemical volume and control system), which would continue to control the concentration of boron in the reactor coolant (and moderator). Therefore, the requirements of GDC-26 are met.
The most severe misalignments would occur when one RCCA is fully inserted, or when bank D is fully inserted with one RCCA fully withdrawn. These situations do not lead to damage in the RCPB, and do not impair the capability to cool the core. Therefore, the requirements of GDC-28 are met.
The effect of the proposed TS change would be to direct that TS 3.1.6.C Action be entered if an RUF occurs during the performance of Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.1.4.2, which verifies control rod freedom of movement. This would allow the sequence and overlap limits to be exceeded, for up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, when in Condition C.
Each control and shutdown control rod assembly bank is regularly tested during power operation to ensure that it is trippable. The test procedure involves sequential insertion and withdrawal, by 18 steps, for each bank. The rods may be inserted beyond their insertion limits for the purpose of conducting this test.
An RUF alarm, which can be triggered during the performance of control rod freedom of movement testing, indicates that there is a failure in the rod control equipment that impedes its ability to move control rod assemblies. An RUF does not affect a control rod assembly's trippability. The proposed change adds text "for reasons other than Condition C" to Condition A, which points to Condition C. This allows up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> for troubleshooting and restoration if the control bank insertion is not more than 18 steps below the insertion limit, and the insertion limits of LCO 3.1.4 and 3.1.5 are met. The longer completion time can be allowed, since the control rod's trippability (and the analysis value for the minimum available shutdown margin) is maintained.
The proposed TS modifies the current TS Condition A only insofar as it directs that Condition C (72-hour completion time) can apply instead of 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. Condition C. itself is not modified. The elements of Condition C (including the 72-hour completion time) were included, by the NRC staff, in the NAPS1 and NAPS2 TSs via License Amendments 179 and 160, respectively, on March 1, 1994ii.
The NRC staff finds the proposed TS change, to Condition A, be acceptable, since (1) it is consistent with the description of current Condition 8 and proposed TS change would point to Condition C, and (2) it does not affect the control rod's trippability, or the analysis value for the minimum available shutdown margin. The NRC staff will insert text, into TS Condition A, stating, "for reasons other than Condition C". This would make Condition A, for control bank sequence or overlap limits, consistent with Condition B, for control bank insertion limits.
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
