Request for Additional Information - TSTF 425 LAR - TACs MF3495/96 Hi Ken, Atanya, Eric, By letter dated February 20, 2014 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)
Accession No. ML14070A087), Florida Power & Light Company (FPL, the licensee) submitted a License Amendment Request regarding the St. Lucie Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2 Facility Operating Licenses. The proposed amendments would revise Technical Specifications (TSs) to Implement Technical Specifications Task Force (TSTF)-425, Revision 3, Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - Risk Informed Technical Specifications Task Force (RITSTF) Initiative 5B.
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRCs) Technical Specifications Branch (STSB) staff reviewed the application and determined that it needs additional information to complete the review. As previously discussed with Ms. Atanya Lewis of the licensees staff on December 16, 2014, the NRC is requesting a response to the request for additional information (RAI) by January 16, 2015. Please contact me at (301) 415-0489 if you have any questions. The NRCs specific RAI is as follows.
STSB RAI 3 The NRC staffs model safety evaluation for TSTF-425 states that all surveillance frequencies can be relocated except for frequencies that reference other approved programs for the specific interval (such as the Inservice Testing Program or the code-related program). For the following surveillance requirement (SR), the licensee proposed to apply the SFCP to components subject to the inservice inspection (ISI) program.
St. Lucie Unit 1 [and Unit 2] TS SR 4.8.1.1.2.g.2, regarding the operability of the emergency diesel generators, currently states:
Each diesel generators shall be demonstrated OPERABLE [] At least once per 10 years by
[] Performing a pressure test of those portions of the diesel fuel oil system designed to USAS B31.7 Class 3 requirements [or for Unit 2, designed to Section III, subsection ND of the ASME Code] in accordance with the Inservice Inspection Program [emphasis added].
Please confirm whether the ISI program specifies a frequency for this surveillance requirement. If it does, please revise the application to remove the proposed change to this SR. Please confirm whether the licensees application included proposed changes to SRs that reference other approved programs that are not in accordance with the NRCs model safety evaluation of TSTF-425, and revise the application to remove such proposed changes.
