DAEC 5.0-11 Amendment No. 298
UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 298 TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-49 NEXTERA ENERGY DUANE ARNOLD, LLC DUANE ARNOLD ENERGY CENTER DOCKET NO. 50-331
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By application dated October 14, 2015, (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML15289A233), NextEra Energy Duane Arnold, LLC (the licensee) requested to amend the operating license of Duane Arnold Energy Center (DAEC). This license amendment request proposed changes to revise technical specification (TS) 5.5.6, "lnservice Testing [IST] Program," to provide consistency with the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR)50.55a(f)(4) for the IST of pumps and valves and remove requirements that are redundant to the requirements of 10 CFR, Section 50.55a.
Specifically, the proposed changes would revise DAEC TS 5.5.6 to be consistent with U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission)-approved Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) travelers TSTF-479, Revision 0, "Changes to Reflect Revision of 10 CFR 50.55a,"
and TSTF-497, Revision 0, "Limit lnservice Testing Program SR [surveillance requirement] 3.0.2 Application to Frequencies of 2 Years or Less." TSTF-479 changes references in the IST program to the latest approved edition and addenda of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (OM Code).
TSTF-497 adds an editorial change to clarify that the provisions of SR 3.0.2 are applicable to pumps and valves with IST intervals of 2 years or less.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
The Commission's regulatory requirements related to the content of the TS are contained in 10 CFR 50.36. That regulation requires that the TS include items in the following specific categories: (1) safety limits, limiting safety systems settings, and limiting control settings, (2) limiting conditions for operation, (3) surveillance requirements, (4) design features, and (5) administrative controls.
The NRC staff reviewed the proposed changes for compliance with 10 CFR 50.36, "Technical specifications," and consistency with the precedent as established in NUREG-1433, "Standard Technical Specifications [STS], General Electric BWR/4 Plants," Revision 4, including changes incorporated via TSTF-479 and TSTF-497. These TSTF travelers affect changes to NUREG-1433 in STS 5.5.7, "lnservice Testing Program."
Enclosure 2
By letter dated December 6, 2005 (ADAMS Accession No. ML053460302), the NRC approved Revision 0 of TSTF-479, "Changes to Reflect Revisions of 10 CFR 50.55a." TSTF-479, Revision 0, revises references in the STS Administrative Controls IST Program and STS Bases to reflect the current edition of the ASME Code specified in 10 CFR 50.55a(b). The NRC concluded that the revision was acceptable because the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a adequately provide for IST.
By letter dated October 4, 2006 (ADAMS Accession No. ML1062780321 ), the NRC approved Revision 0 of TSTF-497, "Limit lnservice Testing Program SR 3.0.2 Application to Frequencies of 2 Years or Less." TSTF-497, Revision 0, revises the STS IST program by clarifying that the application of the 25 percent IST interval extension allowed by SR 3.0.2 was for IST frequencies of 2 years or less. The NRC concluded that the revision was acceptable because it was an editorial change that clarified that the provisions of SR 3.0.2 (i.e., the 25 percent interval extension) are applicable to pumps and valves with IST intervals of two years or less.
The changes were also reviewed for compliance with the requirements for IST as contained in 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(4) for ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 pumps and valves. They are also consistent with the guidance in NUREG-1482, "Guidelines for lnservice Testing at Nuclear Power Plants."
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
The licensee requested this amendment to TS 5.5.6, "lnservice Testing Program," for DAEC.
TS 5.5.6 would be revised to update references to the source of requirements for the IST of the ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 pumps and valves, and to address the applicability of SR 3.0.2 to some non-standard pump and valve testing frequencies.
The licensee stated that the proposed changes to the TS are consistent with NRG-approved TSTF Travelers TSTF-479-A, Revision 0, as modified by TSTF-497-A, Revision 0.
3.1 TSTF-479. Revision 0. "Changes to Reflect Revision of 10 CFR 50.55a" The purposes of the IST programs are to assess the operational readiness of pumps and valves, to detect degradation that might affect component OPERABILITY, and to maintain safety margins with provisions for increased surveillance and corrective action. NRC regulation 10 CFR 50.55a defines the requirements for applying industry codes to each licensed nuclear powered facility. Licensees are required by 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(4)(i) to initially prepare programs to perform the IST of certain ASME Section Ill, Code Class 1, 2, and 3 pumps and valves during the initial 120-month interval. 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(5)(ii) requires licensees to update their IST program to the latest approved edition and addenda of the ASME OM Code incorporated by reference into 10 CFR 50.55a(b).
Section XI of the ASME Code has been revised on a continuing basis over the years to provide updated requirements for the in-service inspection and IST of components. Until 1990, the ASME Code requirements addressing the IST of pumps and valves were contained in Section XI, Subsections IWP (pumps) and IWV (valves). In 1990, the ASME published the initial edition of the OM Code that provides the rules for the IST of pumps and valves. Since the
being updated in Section XI.
The TS change does not eliminate any tests and does not relinquish the licensee of its responsibility to seek relief from Code test requirements when they are impractical. The proposed change of the ASME Code reference from "ASME Section XI" to "ASME OM Code,"
eliminates the ASME Code inconsistency between the IST program and the TS as required by 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(4)(ii). Therefore, the NRC staff finds these proposed changes to be acceptable because they are consistent with the NRC's basis for approval of TSTF-479 in that the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a adequately provide for IST.
3.2 TSTF-497, Revision 0, "Limit In-service Testing Program SR 3.0.2 Application to Frequencies of 2 Years or Less" TSTF-479, Revision 0, revised the IST program located in Chapter 5 of the STS to reflect the latest approved version of the ASME Code. TSTF-479 also revised paragraph b of NUREG-1433 STS 5.5.7, "In-service Testing Program," by adding, "The provisions of SR 3.0.2 are applicable to the above required Frequencies and other normal and accelerated Frequencies specified in the In-service Testing Program for performing in-service testing activities." This requirement referred to the valves in the table above it which only lists valves with a test frequency interval of 2 years or less.
In order to enhance the 2 years or less test frequency requirement, TSTF-497 revised the sentence in paragraph b to state: "The provisions of SR 3.0.2 are applicable to the above required Frequencies and to other normal and accelerated Frequencies specified as 2 years or less in the In-service Testing Program for performing In-service testing activities." Without this limitation, some components, such as safety and relief valves that may be tested at surveillance intervals significantly greater than 2 years, could have extensions applied which would be much greater than needed for operational flexibility. This is an editorial change to clarify that SR 3.0.2 is applicable to pumps and valves with IST intervals of 2 years or less.
The NRC staff reviewed the licensee's application and determined that the proposed changes are consistent with the bases of the NRC's approval of TSTF-479 and TSTF-497. Therefore, the NRC staff finds the proposed changes acceptable because they are consistent with the relevant portions of 10 CFR 50.55a.
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the Iowa State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment. The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
S The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comment on such finding (80 FR 79621). The amendment changes a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20. The NRC staff has determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there is
no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration, and there has been no public comment on such finding (80 FR 79621 dated December 22, 2015). Accordingly, the amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b),
no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendment.
6.0 CONCLUSION
The Commission has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that: (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) there is reasonable assurance that such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
