1. BACKGROUND In 1992, the NRC issued the improved Standard Technical Specifications (STS) to clarify the content and form of requirements necessary to ensure safe operation of nuclear power plants in accordance with Section 50.36 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 50-36).

As the STS mature, necessary improvements are identified.

One process used to initiate changes to the STS involves the industry-sponsored Technical Specifications Task Force (TSTF) submitting a proposed change or Traveler to the NRC for review, approval, and subsequent incorporation into the next revision of the STS. The NRC reviews the proposed change, with the end product being a model application, a model safety evaluation, and a review plan which licensees may use in subsequent LARs. Licensees applying to incorporate these proposed changes into their Technical Specifications must provide a plant specific justification acceptable to the staff in their LAR.

1. BACKGROUND (CONTINUED)

In 2007, the NRC issued the final safety evaluation (SE) for the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Topical Report (TR) 04-10, Revision 1, "Risk-Informed Technical Specification Initiative 5b, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies." This STS change provides a risk-informed methodology to identify, assess, implement, and monitor proposed changes to frequencies of surveillance requirements (SRs) of technical specifications (TSs). The initiative is intended to maintain and improve safety through incorporation of risk assessment and management techniques in the TSs, while reducing unnecessary burden.

5

The Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) is currently reviewing several risk-informed LARs and expects additional risk-informed LARs in fiscal years 2015 and 2016. Point Beach, Units 1 and 2, has submitted a RI-TSTF Initiative 5b LAR. The PRA Licensing Branch (APLA) is responsible for reviewing the Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) portion of the LARs to make an independent assessment regarding PRA technical adequacy and the acceptability of the proposed amendment. Due to heavy workload in APLA, contractor assistance is required to support APLA so as to complete the technical review and develop the safety evaluation report (SER) for these LARs in a timely manner. The metric which has been established for staff review and issuance of the SER is one year from receipt of the LAR in ADAMS.

The Point Beach LAR was received on July 3, 2014. The APLA SE date to the Division of Operating Reactor Licensing is June 2015.

2. SCOPE OF WORK The scope of the work includes review of the Point Beach Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, RI-TSTF Initiative 5b/TSTF-425 LAR for PRA quality and technical adequacy and preparation of the technical evaluation report (TER).

Obiective The objective of this task order is to obtain technical assistance from the Southwest Research Institute's (SwRI) Center for Nuclear Waste Regulatory Analyses (CNWRA) to assist the staff in determining the acceptability of the Point Beach Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, LAR.

3. SPECIFIC TASKS (WORK REQUIREMENTS AND SCHEDULE)

Tasks Completion Schedule

1. Based on the applicable documents and standards found in Section 4, perform the following tasks:

a. Review the layout, scope, and content of the LAR and identify the NRC approved revision of TSTF-425 referenced by the licensee in the LAR.

Prepare a technical letter report.

b. Identify any deviations from the approved TSTF-425 scope:

(1) Compare the TSTF-425 LAR with the Safety Evaluation Report (SER) issued for the appropriate revision of NEI 04-10, "Risk-Informed Technical Specification Initiative 5B, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies," and itemize any deviations.

(2) Where possible, summarize the reason for the deviation (as identified by the licensee) along with the deviation.

c.

TSTF-425 identifies the specific STS Surveillance Frequencies (SFs) to be relocated.

Identify any plant-specific frequencies proposed to be relocated which are One week after completion of Subtask 1.a.

Two weeks after completion of Subtask 2.a.

One week after completion of Subtask 2.b.

6

not contained within the STS scope.'

Determine if each relocated frequency is solely time-based, and not based on events, equipment conditions, or other parameters.

TSTF-425, Section 2.0 describes the exceptions to relocating surveillance frequencies. Prepare a technical letter report.

d. Review the Technical Adequacy of the Internal Events Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) Model.

(1) Confirm that the licensee has completed a peer review of their model in accordance with Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.200.

(2) Review all facts and observations (F&Os), including any identified as "documentation issue only."

Evaluate the disposition of the F&O for the TSTF-425 program and determine if proposed sensitivity analyses are reasonable.

Identify the need for additional or clarifying information (RAIs 2) which are not necessarily limited to F&Os, but addresses the PRA technical adequacy of the Internal Events PRA model. An example may be an RAI related to peer review(s).

Another example may be assessing the acceptability of a capability category I supporting requirement for the TSTF-425 program. Prepare a technical letter report.

e. Given that the licensee is permitted to use PRA or other methods to address seismic, fire, other external events and shutdown events for making SF changes, identify the method by which the licensee is addressing other hazard groups. Identify if the method requires a peer-reviewed PRA model for a detailed analysis or if only qualitative and bounding analyses will be considered.

Identify if the method considers the current as-built, as-operated plant. Confirm that the method identified is consistent with the NRC approved revision of TSTF-425 referenced by the licensee in the LAR. Identify any deviations from this guidance and provide a technical determination of the significance, based on available information.

Identify the need for additional or clarifying information. Prepare a technical letter report.

Three weeks after completion of Subtask 1.a; see assumptions and understandings section, below.

One week after completion of Subtask 2.d.

1 SFs which are identical with the TSTF-425 scope, or which are not relocated in the plant-specific implementation of TSTF-425, do not require review.

2 See Section 10 for guidance in the preparation of RAIs.

7

f. Confirm that the new program in TS Administrative Controls is identical to the program in TSTF-425, except the plant specific numbering of the TS program and referenced surveillance requirements.

Identify any deviations, and the need for additional or clarifying information. Prepare a technical letter report.

g. Identify any open items in the TER and corresponding draft RAIs.

(1) Draft TER and RAls. Review the TSTF-425 Model SER and use it as the basis for developing the TER.

(2) Incorporate NRC comments and prepare the final draft TER and RAls.

2. Using the same steps as in Task 2, review the licensee supplement including the RAI responses (depending on the content of the supplement) and determine if the response adequately addresses the RAI.

If the RAI response adequately addresses the RAI, update the TER.

If the response does not adequately address the RAI, develop an additional RAI.

Prepare a technical letter report.

3. After receipt of the last RAI responses(s), update the TER.

If the response does not adequately address the RAI, list the item as an open item in the TER.

One week after completion of Subtask 2.e.

One week after completion of Subtask 2.f.

Two weeks after receipt of NRC comments.

Two weeks from receipt of the RAI responses.

a. Draft TER.

Two weeks after receipt of the last RAI response(s).

8. PLACE OF PERFORMANCE This work will be performed at the contractor's site, with the exception of trips to the plant site and Government site as needed.

9.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS Assumptions and Understanding The level of effort for each Task was determined based on previous NRC experience from reviewing LARs of similar scope. However, it is expected that the actual number of hours will vary depending on the quality and scope of the specific TSTF-425 LAR to be reviewed.

It is understood that the level of effort for each Task contains sufficient effort to conduct telephone conference calls with the NRC staff. Such phone calls, for example, might be arranged by the NRC COR with the Licensing Project Manager and other NRC staff to discuss the RAIs and to reach an understanding with the licensee. Comments might be provided to the contractor such that the RAIs may have to be resubmitted by the contractor.

It is understood that Subtask 1.d. can be done in parallel with Subtasks 1.b. and 1.c.

The level of effort assumption for Task 2 assumes two rounds of RAIs.

Each round of RAIs is assumed to take 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> to review, including drafting any necessary follow-up RAIs and updating the draft TER.

Guidance for Preparinq Requests for Additional Information (RAIs)

Additional information necessary to resolve open or unresolved items identified during the review of the information associated with the LAR needs to be requested in a manner that is unambiguous, has an adequate basis, and is necessary for the safety review. RAIs should be developed using the following guidance:

1.

An RAI should include the appropriate basis for requesting the information. The basis should explain why the information is needed, including how it will be used to help make a reasonable assurance finding.

2.

Judgmental language should be avoided.

11

a. Questions should not make adequacy determinations.

b. Words like "unacceptable" or"deficient" and "deviation" should be avoided. Likewise, avoid using phrases like "the staff will require" since it is premature to require anything when asking questions.

3. Questions should be focused, not open-ended.

a. The RAI should be in the form of a question or an imperative to provide what is needed to complete the review. When the reviewer needs specific information or the underlying issue may not be apparent, the RAI should clearly identify the information requested and/or the underlying issue.

b. "If... then" questions (questions that could lead to follow-on questions) should provide both parts of the question.

4. For follow-up RAIs, reference the original RAI, the date of the letter in which the licensee responded to the RAI, and the ADAMS Accession Number of the letter.

To ensure that the response appropriately addresses the RAI, the licensee may submit a draft response (which the NRC dockets in the Agency-Wide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)) and may request a follow-up teleconference and/or meeting.

10. TRAVEL None.

11. SECURITY This work will be UNCLASSIFIED; it will only contain proprietary information.
