Enclosure to ULNRC-06283 Page 1 of 10 Ameren Missouris Sixth Six-Month Status Report for the Implementation of Order EA-12-051, "Order Modifying Licenses with Regard to Reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation" 1 Introduction Ameren Missouri developed an Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) (Reference 1 in Section 8 of this report) for the Callaway Plant, documenting the requirements to install reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation System (SFPIS), in response to NRC Order EA-12-051 (Reference 2). This enclosure provides an update of milestone accomplishments since the last update submittal of the OIP (Reference 15), including any changes to the compliance method, schedule, or need for relief/relaxation and the basis, if any. Refer to Section 8 of this enclosure for a list of References.

2 Milestone Accomplishments The following milestones have been completed since development of the SFPIS OIP (Reference 1), and are current as of January 31, 2016.

Submittal of the sixth six-month status report for implementation of Order EA-12-051 (this document).

3 Milestone Schedule Status The following table provides an update of the milestone schedule provided in the SFPIS OIP to the NRC.

The table provides the activity status of each item and the expected completion date (with any changes noted). The dates are planning dates subject to change as design and implementation details are developed.

Enclosure to ULNRC-06283 Page 3 of 10 Note 4: Prior to the completion of Refuel 20, the SFPIS was installed and in operation with a battery supply that can last 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> if site power is lost. Callaway requested relaxation (References 10 and 11) for the requirement described in NRC Order EA-12-051, Appendix 2, Section 1.6. The relaxation request was approved as documented in ML14154A400 (Reference 12). Upon implementation of Callaways FLEX Strategies per NRC Order EA-12-049, full compliance with NRC Order EA-12-051 will be achieved.

4 Changes to Compliance Method There are no changes to the compliance method documented in the Overall Integrated Plan (Reference 1) since submittal of the fifth six-month status report (Reference 15) in August 2015.

5 Need for Relief/Relaxation and Basis for the Relief/Relaxation By letter ULNRC-06036 (Reference 7), Ameren Missouri requested schedular relaxation of FLEX implementation for Order EA-12-049 such that the order implementation date would be extended to completion of Refuel 21 (Spring 2016). The request was approved by NRC letter (ML13319A668) dated December 11, 2013 (Reference 8). FLEX implementation is required to comply with the power supply requirement described in NRC Order EA-12-051, Attachment 2, Section 1.6. Based on the approval of the relaxation request, Ameren Missouri submitted ULNRC-06113 (Reference 10) and ULNRC-06119 (Reference 11) to request relaxation of the power supply requirement described in NRC Order EA 051, Attachment 2, Section 1.6. This relaxation was approved by the NRC per ML14154A400 (Reference 12).

Status RAI No.16 Please provide the following:

An estimate of the expected instrument channel accuracy performance (e.g., in percent of span) under both a) normal SFP level conditions (approximately Level 1 or higher) and b) at the BOB conditions (i.e., radiation, temperature, humidity, post-seismic and post-shock conditions) that would be present if the SFP level were at the Level 2 and Level 3 datum points.

A description of the methodology used for determining the maximum allowed deviation from the instrument channel design accuracy under normal operating conditions, which would be used as an acceptance criterion for a calibration procedure to alert operators and technicians that the channel requires adjustment to within normal design accuracy.

Requested information was submitted on the STARS e-Portal by March 31, 2014, as required by Reference 6.

RAI No.17 Please provide the following:

A description of the capability and provisions the proposed level sensing equipment will have to enable periodic testing and calibration, including how this capability enables the equipment to be tested in-situ.

A description of the way such testing and calibration will enable the conduct of regular channel checks of each independent channel against the other, and against any other permanently installed SFP level instrumentation.

A description of the functional checks to be performed, and the frequency at which they will be conducted. Describe how calibration tests will be performed, and the frequency at which they will be conducted. Discuss how these surveillances will be incorporated into the plant surveillance program.

A description of the preventive maintenance tasks required to be performed during normal operation, and the planned maximum surveillance interval that is necessary to ensure that the channels are fully conditioned to accurately and reliably perform their functions when needed.

Requested information was submitted on the STARS e-Portal by March 31, 2014, as required by Reference 6.

Enclosure to ULNRC-06283 Page 8 of 10 Interim Staff Evaluation Open Items (Note 1)

Status RAI No. 18 Please provide a list of the procedures addressing operation

{both normal and abnormal response), calibration, test, maintenance, and inspection that will be developed for use of the SFP instrumentation. The licensee is requested to include a brief description of the specific technical objectives to be achieved within each procedure.

Requested information was submitted on the STARS e-Portal by March 31, 2014, as required by Reference 6.

RAI No.19 Please provide the following:

Further information describing the maintenance and testing program the licensee will establish and implement to ensure that regular testing and calibration is performed and verified by inspection and audit to demonstrate conformance with design and system readiness requirements. Include a description of plans to ensure that necessary channel

checks, functional
tests, periodic calibration, and maintenance will be conducted for the level measurement system and its supporting equipment.

A description of the compensatory actions to be taken in the event that one or both channels are non-functioning, as described in the guidance in NEI 12-02 section 4.3.

A description of the planned compensatory actions to be taken when one of the instrument channels cannot be restored to functional status within 90 days.

Requested information was submitted on the STARS e-Portal by March 31, 2014, as required by Reference 6.

RAI No. 20 Please provide a description of the in-situ calibration process at the SFP location that will result in the channel calibration being maintained at its design accuracy.

Requested information was submitted on the STARS e-Portal by March 31, 2014, as required by Reference 6.

Note 1: An Interim Staff Evaluation has been received from the NRC (Reference 6).
