APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 release categories included in the review account for about 97 percent of the dose-risk while accounting for only about 20 percent of the Level 2 frequency.

Exclusion of the other results from the Level 2 review allows the contributors that are most important to dose-risk and cost-risk to rise to the top of the importance list. Further grouping of the release categories was required given that the consequences of the ST2 release category are low relative to those for ST1 and ST5. A separate importance list was developed for ST2 to ensure that its contributors could be reviewed without masking the important events in the ST1 and ST5 release categories.

The Level 2 split fractions were also reviewed down to the 1.01 level. Tables F.5-2a and F.5-2b document the disposition of each split fraction in the Level 2 RRW lists with RRW values greater than 1.01. It should be noted that the DCPP Severe Accident Mitigation Guidelines provide further actions to mitigate and recover from severe accidents.

The types of actions proceduralized include spraying and/or flooding the containment breakpoint to reduce airborne releases, using a fire truck to provide a pumping source for steam generator makeup (or for spraying containment), starting the EDGs without a DC power source, flooding containment to provide core debris cooling/release scrubbing, etc. These types of strategies are not included as SAMAs because they are already implemented at the site. F.5.1.31ndustry SAMA Review The SAMA identification process for DCPP is primarily based on the PRA importance listings, the IPE, and the IPEEE. In addition to these plant-specific sources, selected industry SAMA submittals were reviewed to identify any Phase II SAMAs that were determined to be potentially cost beneficial at other plants. These SAMAs were further

  • analyzed and included in the DCPP SAMA list if they were considered to address potential risks not identified by the DCPP importance list review. While many of the industry SAMAs reviewed are ultimately shown not to be cost beneficial, some are close contenders and a small number have been estimated to be cost beneficial at other plants. Use of the DCPP importance ranking should identify the Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-73 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 types of changes that would most likely be cost beneficial for DCPP, but review of selected industry Phase II SAMAs may capture potentially important changes not identified for DCPP due to PRA modeling differences or SAMAs that represent alternate methods of addressing risk. Given this potential, it was considered prudent to inClude a review of selected industry Phase II SAMAs in the DCPP SAMA identification process. Phase II SAMAs from the following United States nuclear power sites have been reviewed:

Susquehanna (Reference 62, Reference

69) Shearon Harris (Reference 5, Reference
70) H. B. Robinson (Reference 4, Reference
71) Point Beach (Reference 15, Reference
72) Prairie Island (Reference 16, Reference
73) Wolf Creek (Reference 65, Reference
74) Grand Gulf (Reference 76, Reference
77) Seabrook (Reference 78, Reference
79) Two General Electric BWR and six Westinghouse PWR sites were chosen from available documentation to serve as the potential Phase 2 SAMA sources. Many of the industry Phase 2 SAMAs were already represented by other SAMAs in the DCPP list, were known not to impact important plant systems or be relevant to the DCPP design, or were judged not to have the potential to be close contenders for DCPP. As a result, they were not added to the DCPP SAMA list. If there were any unique SAMAs that were considered to have the potential to be cost effective for DCPP, they were added to the list. The potentially cost effective SAMAs for each of the sites identified above are reviewed in the following subsections.

Bus failures leading to RCP seal failures are not significant contributors to DCPP risk, and SAMA 10 already provides a means of directly providing power to the critical DC loads. F.5.1.3.3 H.B. Robinson The H.B. Robinson SAMA analysis used a generic SAMA list as its starting point and few plant specific insights were available that might pertain specifically to Westinghouse PWRs. One of the SAMAs included in the Phase 2 list was, however, related to an important issue at DCPP, which is discussed below. In addition, NUREG-1437, Supplement 13 (Reference

71) identified two potentially cost beneficial SAMAs that were not identified in the ER, and these have also been included for review.

The DCPP fire model significant risk includes the diesel generators and the benefit. dominant risks were reviewed to identify potential SAMAs. As with H.B. Robinson, this analysis relied on a generic SAMA list and few plant specific insights were available that might pertain specifically to Westinghouse PWRs. The SAMAs identified in the Point Beach submittal as potentially cost effective appeared to be procedural updates to include checkoff provisions within the procedures.

Some HRA methodologies credit placekeeping aids in procedures as a means of reducing the potential to skip a step in the cognitive portion of the HEP. While inclusion of such provisions is reflected quantitatively in the PRA, it would be difficult to justify changes to a large number of procedures based on a detail in a specific HRA methodology.

This type of SAMA was not included in the DCPP SAMA list. NUREG-1437, Supplement 23 (Reference

72) indicates that when "uncertainties or alternative discount rates" were taken into account, the NRC staff considered the SAMA to "provide portable generators to be hooked into the turbine driven AFW, after battery depletion" (SAMA 169) to be cost beneficial.

The use of a portable generator is already included in the DCPP SAMA list (SAMA 1 0). Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-77 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 F.5.1.3.5 Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Review of Prairie Island Cost Beneficial SAMAs Industry SAMA Description Site SAMA ID 3 Provide alternate flow path from RWST to charging pump suction 9 Analyze Room Heat-up for Natural/Forced Circulation (Screen house Ventilation) 19a Provide a Reliable Backup Water Source for Replenishing the RWST 22 Provide Compressed Air Backup for Instrument Air to Containment Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Discussion for DCPP The refueling water storage tank (RWST) suction path already includes a pair of redundant valves (Motor Operated Valve (MOV) 8805A/B) for the normal centrifugal charging pumps and the Class 2, third charging pump. The risk-reduction worth (RRW) values for all of the Diablo Canyon Power Plant (DCPP) split fractions (CH*) related to the RWST suction path to the charging pumps are below 1.001 for non-fire events and are not meaningful risk contributors. This SAMA was developed to support the use of alternate room cooling in the plant's screen house when normal cooling fails. The DCPP SAMA list includes a SAMA to install an additional train to the Switchgear Room HVAC (SAMA 6). For Prairie Island, the installation of the RWST refill source is credited primarily for increasing the time that is available to perform RCS cooldown in an SGTR event. Cooldown would equalize primary and secondary side pressures and effectively terminate the inventory loss to the secondary side. DCPP already has the capability to provide makeup to the RWST from the eves blend tanks as well as from the spent fuel pool. The RWST refill action is directed in the plant's emergency procedures and credited in the PRA model. Failure of the makeup action is not a risk significant event at DCPP. The instrument air system is modeled for DCPP, and the importance review identified the event to provide backup N2 bottles to pressurize the instrument air header (SAMA 5). Disposition for DCPP SAMA List Not included-no significant risk benefit. Already included Not included -no significant risk benefit.

The valve spindle is not intended to withstand a large compressive force and the expectation is that it would fail (buckle) or cause valve seat damage under the load required to close an open safety valve In addition, for steam generator tube rupture events that lead to core damage, steam and hydrogen will pass from the primary side to the secondary side of the ruptured steam generator and force open the main steam safety valves or PORVs that are not gagged closed, which still leads to a release of radionuclides to the environment.

Gagging all of the main steam safety valves is not recommended because it can lead to rupture of the steam . generator.

Finally, in the event of a stuck open SG PORV, there are manual isolation valves that could be used to terminate the leak.

DCPP has the capability to use ECCS pumps (LPCI Firewater as an alternate high head injection and LPCS) for loss pump cooling source in the event that CCW has of standby service failed. In addition, a third non-safety centrifugal water scenarios charging pump is available to provide makeup that is air cooled and does not require cooling water. For the low pressure pumps, CCW provides both pump seal cooling and cooling to the heat exchangers.

If CCW is not available to support recirculation, providing pump seal cooling is not beneficial.

Finally, for DCPP, containment isolation contributors are generally fire events and in those cases, power is not necessarily lost. Page F-83 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Review of Seabrook Cost Beneficial SAMAs Industry SAMA Description Site SAMA ID 195 Make improvements to PCCW temperature control reliability Discussion for DCPP This SAMA appears to reduce Primary Component Cooling Water System failures by replacing the temperature control elements with improved components.

DCPP's CCW system (same as PCCW) has no temperature control. The ASW flow must all go through the CCW HX tubes and likewise the CCW flow has no HX bypass provision and all flow must go through the shell side of the CCW HX. F.5.1.3.9 Industry SAMA Identification Summary Disposition for DCPP SAMA List Not included -not applicable to the DCPP design. The important issues for DCPP are generally considered to be addressed by the SAMAs developed through the PRA importance list review. The plant changes suggested as part of that review were developed to meet the specific needs of the plant such that those SAMAs are more likely to provide effective means of risk reduction than SAMAs taken from other sites. However, effort was made to review other industry SAMA analyses to determine if other sites identified plant changes that could be cost beneficial for DCPP based on modeling differences or other factors. For DCPP, no additional SAMA candidates were identified based on a review of selected industry analyses.

F.5.1.4DCPP IPE PLANT IMPROVEMENT REVIEW The DCPP IPE generated a list of risk-based insights and potential plant improvements. Typically, changes identified in the IPE process are implemented and closed out; however, there are some items that are not completed within the industry due to high projected costs or other criteria.

Because the criteria for implementation of a SAMA may be different than what was used in the post-IPE decision-making process, these recommended improvements are re-examined in this analysis.

As a result of the IPE review, several potential/completed improvements were identified for consideration that were based on PRA based insights, as well as several other plant enhancements that were not necessarily related to the PRA in origin. In addition, two Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-84 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 potential plant improvements identified in the DCPP IPE Safety Evaluation Report (Reference

36) that were not documented as potential plant improvements in the IPE have been included for review. The following table summarizes the status of these improvements:

Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-85 Status of IPE Plant Enhancements APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Description of Potential Status of Disposition Enhancement Implementation EDG Fuel Oil Transfer System: Implemented No further review required.

Recirculation lines were added to the diesel generator day tank system in order to allow the system to operate continuously once a start demand was received.

Also, provisions were made to allow for manual operation of the level control valves on the diesel generator day tanks and to allow a portable engine-driven pump to be connected to the system. Charging Pump Backup Cooling: For scenarios involving a complete loss of component cooling water, provisions have been made and procedures are in place to allow the use of fire water to cool the centrifugal charging pumps. This design feature allows reactor coolant pump seal injection and consequently reactor coolant pump seal cooling to be maintained for scenarios involving a complete loss of component cooling water. Substation Spare Parts: For seismic events that result in a loss of offsite power due to switchyard equipment failures, spare parts are stored on-site to allow expeditious recovery. This ensures that the parts will be available in a timely manner for use by recovery personnel. Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Implemented No further review required.

Implemented No further review required.

Page F-86 Description of Potential Enhancement Overcurrent Relay Remote Reset: The 4.16 kV overcurrent relays actuate and trip the breakers to the 4.16 kV vital buses. To facilitate recovery, it was proposed that the seal-in contacts be removed to allow the overcurrent trip to be reset from the control room. Valve Control Switch Replacement:

This modification consisted of replacing position valve control switches (with spring return to neutral) with two-position valve control switches (with maintained contacts).

Dedicated Sixth EDG: Adding a sixth emergency diesel generator.

AMSAC System: Provides an alternate and diverse mean of assuring turbine trip and actuating the AFW system. Digital Feedwater Control: Digital control of the feedwater system helps reduce the initiating event frequencies of the transients involving feedwater flow. Boron Injection Tank Elimination:

The elimination of the boron injection tank simplified the high pressure ECCS system and removed a potential failure mode of the ECCS, i.e. boric acid clogging in ECCS piping. 480 V Switchgear Ventilation:

A design change that precluded the potential for a single failure of the motor operated discharge damper to fail the 480 V switchgear ventilation system. Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Status of IPE Plant Enhancements Status of Disposition Implementation Not Implemented Upon further investigation, it was determined that the existing capability and procedures to reset these relays from the control room were sufficient; therefore, the proposed modification was not implemented.

The resistance temperature detector bypass elimination reduces plant downtime and radiation exposures to plant personnel.

Instrument Inverter Replacement:

Implemented Implemented Completed during the containment recirculation sump modifications of 2007 (Unit 1) and 2008 (Unit 2). Insights from the SGTR results have been incorporated into the DCPP Severe Accident Mitigation Guidelines.

All of the plant changes suggested in the IPE and the IPE SER have been implemented at DCPP or were considered to be insufficient and therefore no further review of these items is required.

F.5.1.5 DCPP IPEEE PLANT IMPROVEMENT REVIEW Similar to the IPE, any proposed plant changes that were previously rejected based on non-SAMA criteria should be re-examined as part of this analysis.

In addition, any Diablo Canyon Power Plant Page F-88 License Renewal Application APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 issues that are in the process of being resolved should be examined because their resolutions could be important to the disposition of some SAMAs. The IPEEE was used to identify these items. The following table summarizes the status of the potential plant enhancements resulting from the IPEEE processes and its treatment in the SAMA analysis.

Status of IPEEE Plant Enhancements DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL ENHANCEMENT STATUS OF DISPOSITION IMPLEMENTATION A procedure modification is being evaluated.

The control Implemented No further review room evacuation procedure (OP AP-8A, Rev. 5) required.

modification would require the reactor coolant pumps to be tripped in the event the control room fire is located in cabinets that could result in loss of CCW or auxiliary saltwater (ASW) systems. The above plant change suggested in IPEEE is considered to have been implemented and no further review is required.

F.5.1.6 POST IPEEE SITE CHANGES In addition to performing a review of the IPEEE results, it was necessary to review the changes to the site and surrounding area that were implemented after the completion of the IPEEE to determine if the changes could impact the conclusions of the external events analyses.

For fire and seismic events, the PRA model development has accounted for the plant changes relevant to these contributors, such as those related to the NFPA 805 transition.

For the non-fire/non-seismic external events, the DCPP staff identified the procedural change to trip the RCPs on evacuation of the control room as the only major change since the submittal of the IPEEE. This change was documented in the IPEEE as a task that would be completed in the near future (see previous section for further details).

Therefore no further discussion of DCPP post IPEEE site changes is necessary.

F.5.1.7 "OTHER" EXTERNAL EVENTS IN THE DCPP SAMA ANALYSIS As identified in Section F.2 , DCPP has quantifiable PRA models for both seismic and internal fire contributors.

The results of these models were used to identify SAMAs for Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-89 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 DCPP using the same process used for the internal events contributors, which addresses part of the DCPP external events risk. In addition to seismic and internal fire events, the IPEEE analyzed the risk posed by multiple other events. Of those that were relevant to the plant, only a subset was considered to have the potential to credibly impact plant operations.

These event types, which were analyzed in the IPEEE, include the following:

  • High Wind
  • Ship Impact
  • Accidental Aircraft Impact
  • External Flooding
  • Chemical Release
  • External Fire While it is possible that SAMAs could be developed to reduce the risk associated with these types of events, their low core damage frequencies imply that it is unlikely that any such SAMAs could be cost beneficial.

This can be demonstrated by comparing the potential averted cost-risk (PACR) for each initiating event type with the dollar value corresponding to the lower review threshold defined in Section F.5.1.1 ($1 00,000). The review process is a multi-step evaluation.

The first step is to develop a PACR for each of the external events contributors.

The PACR represents the cost-risk that could be averted if all risk associated with a given initiating event could be eliminated (similar to a MACR, but for a specific initiating event). In order to develop the PACRs for DCPP, it has been assumed that the non-fire/non-seismic external events CDF is directly proportional to the MACR associated with the event types addressed in the PRA model. It is recognized that the public impact of a core damage event varies depending on the scenario, but because there are no Level 2 or Level 3 results for the external events contributors, an alternate method of estimating the PACRs is required.

For example, the PACR for ship impact at the intake structure is assumed to be the internal events, fire, and seismic MACR multiplied by the ratio of the ship impact CDF to the internal events, fire, and seismic CDF: $9,044,457

  • 1.90E-08/8.64E-05

= $1,989 Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-90 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Once the PACRs are developed for the initiating event categories, they can be compared to dollar value of the review threshold

($100,000).

If the PACR is less than the review threshold, then no SAMAs are considered to be warranted and the event type can be screened from further consideration.

The following table summarizes the PACRs that were developed using the above process for each of the relevant non-fire/non-seismic external event contributors for which a CDF was developed.

The CDFs for the contributors that were considered to be negligible in the IPEEE (external fires, nearby facility accidents, etc.) are assumed to be smaller than the lowest quantified contributor (ship impact on intake structure).

Given that the "ship impact" PACR is about $2,000, no potentially cost beneficial SAMAs are considered to exist for those external event contributors. Review of External Events Screened in the DCPP IPEEE Initiating Event Group Estimated PACR Disposition CDF (per yr, (site) site) The PACR is below the minimum High Winds 3.20E-07 3 $33,498 expected cost of implementation for a SAMA.

Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-91 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Review of External Events Screened in the DCPP IPEEE Initiating Event Group Hazardous Chemical Release Estimated CDF (per yr, site) 8.00E-07 5 PACR Disposition (site) The only contributor for this initiating event was an ammonium hydroxide spill, but ethanolamine has replaced $83,7 45 ammonium hydroxide at the site. The CDF for this type of event at DCPP is, therefore, considered to be negligible and no SAMAs are required.

The IPEEE was published prior to September 11, 2001. Since that time, there have been efforts to address intentional aircraft impacts and other sabotage events in other forums. For example, security orders issued to licensees following the events of September 11, 2001 required licensees to implement certain mitigation strategies.

Under section B.5.b, DCPP implemented mitigation measures to generally deal with the situation in which large areas of the plant were lost due to fires and explosions, whatever the beyond-design basis initiator and without regard to cost. Accordingly, even though the intentional aircraft attacks and sabotage-related events are outside the scope of the SAMA analysis, the site has already taken steps to mitigate severe accidents that might result from such initiators.

Moreover, the NRC has already included a sabotage/terrorism assessment in the license renewal GElS (NUREG-1437), Chapter 5. The NRC concludes (at 5-18) that" .. . if such events were to occur, the Commission would expect that resultant core damage and radiological releases would be no worse than those expected from internally initiated events." Based on the fact that this topic is currently being analyzed in another forum, the NRC's expectation that severe accidents initiated by a terrorist attack can be correlated to other internally initiated events, and given an inherent inability to quantify the probability 5.The IPEEE hazardous material release risk was based on a spill of ammonium hydroxide; other chemical stored on-site were determined not to pose a risk to the MCR operators.

Since the IPEEE was completed, the ammonium hydroxide was replaced by the chemical ethanolamine, which was also determined not to pose a risk to MCR operators.

Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-92 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 of hypothetical aircraft impacts and other terrorist-initiated events, intentional aircraft impacts and other terrorist-initiated events are not considered further in the DCPP SAMA analysis.

The hazardous chemical release contribution in the IPEEE was based on a spill of ammonium hydroxide from one of the several tanks located on-site. Since the completion of the IPEEE, ammonium hydroxide has been replaced by the chemical ethanolamine. The IPEEE indicates that ethanolamine was being evaluated as a candidate to replace ammonium hydroxide at the time of the analysis and that ethanolamine posed no risk to the MCR operators.

Based on the removal of the only chemical identified as a potential risk to MCR operators, the hazardous chemical release CDF for the currently plant configuration is considered to be negligible and no SAMAs are required to address this type of event. In summary, no SAMAs have been developed to specifically address the risk related to the "other" external events contributors at DCPP. F.5.2 PHASE 1 SCREENING PROCESS The initial list of SAMA candidates is presented in Table F.5-3. The process used to develop the initial list is described in Section F.5.1. The purpose of the Phase 1 analysis is to use high-level knowledge of the plant and SAMAs to preclude the need to perform detailed cost-benefit analyses on them. The following screening criteria were used: Applicability to the Plant: If a proposed SAMA does not apply to the DCPP design, it is not retained.

Similarly, any SAMAs that have already been implemented by PG&E or achieve results that PG&E has achieved by other means can be screened as they are not applicable to the current plant design. The use of these criteria is not often explicitly used in the Phase I analysis because the SAMA methodology generally precludes inclusion of such SAMAs; however, they are listed as a possible screening method given that there may be circumstances in which a SAMA would be included in the list even if it is not relevant to the site. An example may be the inclusion of a high profile SAMA that is well known in the industry, but not applicable to the specific site design. Such a SAMA may be included for documentation purposes.

Another example may be an unimplemented SAMA from the IPE that has been superseded byanother plant enhancement.

Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-93 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Implementation Cost Greater than Screening Cost: If the estimated cost of implementation is greater than the modified MACR (refer to Section F.4.6), the SAMA cannot be cost beneficial and is screened from further analysis.

Table F.5-3 provides a description of how each SAMA was dispositioned in *Phase 1. Those SAMAs that required a more detailed cost-benefit analysis are passed to the Phase 2 analysis and evaluated in Section F.6. Table F.6-1 contains the Phase 2 SAMAs. Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-94 F.6 PHASE 2 SAMAANALYSIS APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 The SAMA candidates identified as part of the Phase 2 analysis are listed in Table F.6-1. The base PRA model was manipulated to simulate implementation of each of the proposed SAMAs and then quantified to determine the risk benefit. Truncation values and binning cutoffs are the same as used in the base PRA model (CDF, LERF, Seismic and Fire), including Level 2 endstates.

In general, in order to maximize the potential risk benefit due to implementation of each of the SAMAs, the failure probabilities assigned to new basic events, such as HEPs, were optimistically chosen so as not to inadvertently screen out any potential beneficial SAMAs. Also, any new model logic that was added to the PRA model in order to simulate SAMA implementation was also simplified and optimistically configured to achieve the same effect. Determination of the cost-risk benefit for each of the Phase 2 SAMAs involved calculating what was known as the averted cost-risk, which was obtained by comparing the cost risk associated with the plant configuration in which the SAMA has been implemented to the base case MACR value. This value is then compared with the cost of implementation to determine the overall net benefit. That is, the net value is determined by the following equation:

Net Value = (baseline cost-risk of plant operation (MACR) -cost-risk of plant operation with SAMA implemented)

-cost of implementation If the net value of the SAMA is negative, the cost of implementation is larger than the benefit associated with the SAMA, and the SAMA is not considered cost beneficial.

The baseline cost-risk of plant operation was derived using the methodology presented in Section F.4. The cost-risk of plant operation with the SAMA implemented is determined in the same manner with the exception that the revised PRA results reflect implementation of the SAMA. The implementation costs used in the Phase 1 and 2 analyses consist of DCPP specific estimates developed by the plant's cost estimator.

The estimates are conceptual in nature based on the conceptual scope of the designs provided to the estimator by the SAMA team. It should be noted that DCPP specific implementation costs are in 2014 Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-95 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 dollars with no allowances for *escalation, and no consideration for escalation during implementation.

In addition, the estimates:

  • Do include contingency costs for unforeseen difficulties,
  • Do not account for any replacement power costs that may be incurred due to consequential shutdown time,
  • Do account for costs for training and procedure revisions,
  • Do account for costs for simulator modifications.

Table F.5-3 provides implementation costs for each Phase 1 and Phase 2 SAMA. The following sections describe the simplified cost-benefit analysis that was used for each of the Phase 2 SAMA candidates

'. It should be noted that DCPP units 1 and 2 are essentially identical in design and operation (see Section F.2.1 for further discussion).

Such differences that do exist are not significant from a risk perspective.

As such, the site interim PRA model (DC03), which references Unit 1 and common components, was employed to evaluate each of the risk benefits and averted costs for each of the SAMAs, and was viewed as also being applicable to Unit 2. That is, if a particular SAMA proves cost beneficial for Unit 1, it will likewise be cost beneficial for Unit 2. F.6.1 SAMA 1: INSTALL A MINIMUM CCW COOLING FLOW LINE AROUND THE RHR HEAT EXCHANGER OUTLET VALVE For scenarios in which an Sl signal is generated while the RCS pressure remains above the RHR low pressure interlock for extended times, it is necessary for the operators to check the status of the RHR pumps at some point after initiation and to shut them down to prevent pump damage. If CCW is flowing to the RHR heat exchangers, however, the action to trip the RHR pumps is not required to prevent pump failure. A means of preventing RHR pump failure without adding a large, early demand on the CCW system is to add a small, normally open bypass line around the RHR heat exchanger outlet valves in the CCW flowpath.

This will allow CCW to remove enough heat from the RHR process fluid to prevent pump damage. Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-96 Change Description

F.6.7 SAMA 21: CHANGE FIRE PROCEDURES TO INCLUDE FIRE AREA SPECIFIC GUIDANCE ON CONTAINMENT ISOLATION VALVES The DCPP fire procedure already identifies equipment that may be damaged for each fire area and provides guidance to mitigate failed equipment.

A potential enhancement would be to explicitly identify the containment isolation valves that may be impacted for each fire area. Where possible, the fire procedures could direct manual actions to close the valves. In cases where manual isolation would not be desirable until after loss of equipment or core damage, a reference to other procedures, such as the Severe Accident Mitigation Guidelines could be provided.

Change

Description:

Improve the human action associated with containment isolation by lowering the split fractions in top events Cl, WL, ZOI and CP. Top Event CP, split fraction CPFIRE: this SF represents the failure to manually isolate the RCP seal water return lines given a fire induced failure of the valves. If there were procedures in addition to instrumentation cues, this split fraction could be reduced by about a factor of 1 00. CPFIRE (0.1) reduces to 1 E-03 Top Event Cl: Split fractions CIA and CIB are assigned for fire and depend on top event ZOI, see below. Since this top event is recovery on top of the operator action in ZOI, each split fraction should be reduced by a factor of 100 to account for the improved procedures.

  • CIB (1.0) to 1 E-02 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Top Event ZOI: This SF is associated with the operator action to manually perform containment isolation during fires when the instrumentation used for diagnosis is partially degraded or absent. If there were procedures in addition to instrumentation cues, each of these split fractions could be reduced by about a factor of 100:
  • ZOI3 to 1 E-2
  • ZOI5 to 1.9E-3
  • ZOI6 to 4.5E-4. Top Event WL: Split fractions WL 1 and WL2 are associated with the operator action to manually open the containment structure sump pump discharge line given no automatic containment isolation signal due to a loss of both SSPS trains. These split fraction values are reduced by a factor of 100. Model Change(s):

SUMMARY

. All of the SAMAs reviewed showed at least some benefit with respect to the traditional CDF and LERF risk metrics. Only two (2) of the proposed SAMAs are potentially cost beneficial at the nominal level when comparing the averted cost-risk to the associated implementation costs (SAMAs 3 and 21). Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-11 0 F.7 UNCERTAINTY ANALYSIS APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 The following three uncertainties were further investigated as to their impact on the overall SAMA evaluation:

Use a discount rate of 7 percent, instead of 3 percent used in the base case analysis.

Use the 95th percentile PRA results in place of the mean PRA results. Selected MACCS2 input variables.

Impact of Binning Truncated Frequency to RC ST5 F.7.1 REAL DISCOUNT RATE The RDR is an estimate of the rate of return on invested dollars above the rate of inflation.

A scenario with a low RDR would require a larger investment of present day dollars to pay for a future expense than a scenario with a relatively high RDR. In a SAMA analysis, large RDRs reduce the averted cost-risk values associated with SAMA implementation relative to low RDRs because the present day dollar investment to pay for accident mitigation would be less. The baseline SAMA analysis uses an RDR of 3 percent, which could be viewed as conservative given that NUREG/BR-0184 suggests the use of an RDR of 7 percent * (Reference 21). In this sensitivity case, the Phase 1 and Phase 2 results were evaluated using the 7 percent RDR suggested in NUREG/BR-0184.

For the Phase 1 analysis, the MACR was recalculated using the methodology outlined in Section F.4, and the SAMA implementation costs were compared to the revised MACR. Based on the reduction of the MACR to $6,907,382 (a 26 percent reduction of the baseline MACR), no additional SAMAs would be screened in the Phase 1 analysis due to the use of the 7 percent RDR. For the Phase 2 analysis, the determination of cost effectiveness did not change for any of the Phase 2 SAMAs when the 7 percent RDR was used in lieu of 3 percent, as shown below.

If the best estimate failure probability values were consistently lower than the "actual" failure probabilities, the PRA model would underestimate plant risk and yield lower than "actual" averted cost-risk values for potential SAMAs. Re-assessing the cost-benefit calculations using the high end of the failure probability distributions is a means of identifying the impact of having consistently underestimated failure probabilities for plant equipment and operator actions included in the PRA model. A model uncertainty analysis was not performed for DCPP interim model DC03. However, an uncertainty analysis was performed on DCPP model DC02. Since the 95th percentile assessment employs a ratio rather than individual values, a determination was made that it is acceptable to use the DC02 uncertainty results. The basis for this decision is that the 95th to CDF point estimate ratio is not expected to vary significantly between the two models, and hence, should provide a representative value. In performing the sensitivity analysis, only the base case was used in determining the appropriate value for the 95th percentile.

For those SAMAs that required the addition of new basic events, no new uncertainty distributions were assigned since the design and Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-112 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 implementation of each SAMA was arbitrary and was defined by the analysis assumptions.

The results of this uncertainty analysis, therefore, show the expected statistical uncertainty of the CDF risk metrics under the assumption that each SAMA was designed and implemented as it was specified in this analysis.

All RISKMAN uncertainty calculations were performed as documented in DCPP PRA Calculation C.1 0 (Reference 43). The results of the uncertainty calculation indicate that the internal events 95th percentile CDF is a factor of 2.67 larger than the point estimate CDF while the internal flooding 95th percentile CDF is a factor of 2.37 larger than the point estimate value. For this sensitivity analysis, the ratio of the internal events 95th percentile CDF to the point estimate CDF has been rounded up from 2.67 to 3.0 in order to estimate the potential impact of parametric model uncertainty on the SAMA analysis.

F.7.2.1 PHASE 1 IMPACT For Phase 1 screening, use of the 95th percentile PRA results will increase the MACR and may prevent the screening of some of the higher cost modifications.

However, the impact on the overall SAMA results due to the retention of the higher cost SAMAs for Phase 2 analysis is typically small. This is due to the fact that the benefit obtained from the implementation of those SAMAs must be extremely large in order to be cost beneficial.

The impact of uncertainty in the PRA results on the Phase 1 SAMA analysis has been examined.

The MACR is the primary Phase 1 criteria affected by PRA uncertainty.

Thus, this portion of the sensitivity is focused on recalculating the MACR using the 95th percentile PRA results and re-performing the Phase 1 screening process. As discussed above, the 95th PRA results are estimated to be a factor of 3.0 greater than the point estimate CDF. In order to simulate the use of the 95th percentile PRA results on the cost benefit calculations, the same scaling factor calculated for the Level 1 results was assumed to apply to the Level 3 results. Because the MACR calculations scale linearly with the CDF, dose-risk, and off-site economic cost-risk, the 95th percentile MACR can be calculated by multiplying the base case MACR by 3.0. This results in a 95th percentile MACR of $27,947,373. Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-113 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 The initial SAMA list has been re-examined using the revised MACR to identify SAMAs that would have been retained for the Phase 2 analysis.

Those SAMAs that were previously screened due to costs of implementation that exceeded $9.3 million are now retained if the costs of implementation are less than $27,947,373.

Of the SAMAs screened in the baseline Phase 1 analysis, SAMAs 2, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 17, 20, and 22 would be retained based on the use of the 95th percentile MACR. For each of these SAMAs, detailed quantifications were performed in order to support a Phase 2 cost benefit analysis, which was not performed as part of the baseline analysis.

As shown below, none of the SAMAs produced positive net values. In fact, the net values for each SAMA were significantly negative, providing further justification of screening them from consideration.

F.7.2.1.1 SAMA2: Provide an Engine Driven SG Makeup Pump For cases in which the AFW pumps have failed and/or the support systems are failed, such as the 480V AC switchgear, providing an independent means of injecting water to the steam generators could provide the secondary side heat removal function.

Ensuring that the makeup pump can be aligned in time to mitigate early loss of AFW scenarios and that diverse pump suction supplies are available (e.g., Fire Water, Raw Water) is required to mitigate the top DCPP risks. Change

If the capability to align the pump to alternate suction sources were accounted for in the cost estimate, the net value would become more negative.

Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-115 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 F.7.2.1.2 SAMA6: Install an Additional Train of 480V Switchgear Room HVAC Alternate Switchgear Room cooling procedures already exist for DCPP, but the loss of room cooling is still an important issue. While costly, a potential means of reducing the HVAC failure contribution would be to install an independent train of HVAC. Change

Description:

Recovery of 480V AC switchgear HVAC is modeled in top events SVH (in event tree MECHSUP) for internal events and in ZSVHE for fires (in event tree FMECHSUP).

The additional train of HVAC could be modeled in these top events in lieu of the human action to mitigate loss of HVAC. In top event SVH split fraction SVH1 is used for LOOP initiators.

Set this to 4E-4 (one train probability SV4 and LOOP). SVH2 for non-LOOP initiators should be set to the one train probability of 1E-04 (SV1 and non-LOOP).

SVH1SA, SVH1SB, SVH1SC are based on HEPs dependent on the seismic level. For fires modeled in event tree FMECHSUP and top event ZSVHE, the split fractions are all HEPs. Changing them to hardware failure models the impact of an extra train but does not account for the fire impact on power dependency.

Thus the delta risk will be conservatively higher than actual. Model Change(s):

In the MFF, set:

  • SVH 1 (from 1.1 E-02) = 4E-04
  • SVH2 (from 6.7E-04) = 1.0E-4
  • SVH 1 SA (from 1.1 E-2), SVH 1 SB (from 5.5E-2), SV1 SC (from 3.3E-01) reduce by a factor of 10 to simulate the added fragility of an extra train assuming the fragility of an extra train has better failure probability than a human action.

Change

Description:

Assume the hardware failure rate is similar to 2 trains of SSPS (see split fraction S12) and is approximately 5.0E-4. The resultant split fraction will then be the sum of sump plug screening probability (see basic events RFBKA 1, RFBKA3, and RFBKA4), and failure probability of 2 SSPS trains. In top event RF there are split fractions developed for internal events, fire and seismic. The cause table for each includes an HEP and sump screen plugging which depends on the initiator.

For the cases where the containment spray (CS) is successful, screen plugging is not considered likely. To develop the split fractions screen plugging needs to be added to the split fraction, if applicable, then the SSPS equivalent value added. For MLOCA a separate top is used, RFM, with its split fractions.

For some flooding les RWST instrumentation is damaged so the auto switchover would also be likely failed as well. Model Change(s):

Providing barriers to protect the TO AFW pump can reduce the likelihood that the pump will be damaged. The MD AFW pumps are susceptible to flood water incursion via ventilation ducts that must remain open to provide adequate room cooling. To protect the MD AFW pumps from these flooding events, it would be necessary to replace the existing equipment with a waterproof pump. Change

Description:

Flooding from fire suppression systems occurs in areas 14-A and 3-Q-2. To simulate protecting the pump, the fire initiators associated with these areas need to be removed from the split fraction logic that fails the pumps. AFW for fires is modeled in the FGENAFW event tree via top events ZMDP2, ZMDP3 and ZTDP. From flooding initiators Y14A* and Y3Q2* split fractions for the auxiliary feedwater top event AW need to be changed. The initiators Y14* and Y3Q2* need to be removed from the rules. Model Change(s):

Note: Installation of spray barriers over AFW trains related electrical cabinets will not protect them from fires in Fire Areas 3-Q-2 and 14A. However, fire impacts are removed as well, which allows additional credit for the installation.

This is a conservative treatment from the cost-risk analysis perspective.

In FGENAFW for 3-Q-2:

  • ZMDP21: (224) remove Z3Q2 from rule,
  • ZMDP3G: (284) remove Z3Q2 from rule, Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application Page F-120 APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2
  • ZMDP2F: (206) delete specific rule, fire is not failing component,
  • ZMDP3: (270) delete specific rule. For 14-A:
  • ZMDP21, ZMDP2F, ZMDP2K: remove all instances of INIT=Z14A*,
  • ZMDP3F, ZMDP3G: remove all instances of INIT=Z14A*,
  • ZTDPD: (509) delete specific rule,
  • ZTDPA: (51 0) delete specific rule,
  • ZTDPHF: (565) delete specific rule,
  • ZTDPHD: (564) delete specific rule. In GENTRN for 3-Q-2 and 14-A:
  • Change the rule for split fractions AW4, AW4FL, AW9, AW9FL, and AWF remove initiators Y3Q2SP1A and Y14ASP1A.

F.7.2.1.5 SAMA 10: Alternate DC Generator In order to mitigate DC system failures, an alternate DC generator could be used to directly power a bus (bypasses charger faults) or directly power critical loads (bypasses distribution failures).

The generator should be stored in a seismically qualified area so that it would potentially be available to respond in seismic scenarios.

Change

Description:

The seismic pretree SEISPRE models the fragility of the DC system. When top event SOC fails electric power event tree ELECPWR DC top events D2F, D2G and D2H are failed. A seismically qualified DC generator that could be used to power loads requiring DC power. A way to model that is to not fail one of the DC buses due to seismic initiators and to decrease the failure probability due to the additional redundant components.

To account for the impact on DC in the long term all the split fractions for top event OF is reduced in probability by a factor of 100. Assume fire damage to 125V DC bus F prevents the use of the alternate DC equipment.
