UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 March 16, 2017 Mr. Marty L. Richey Site Vice President FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company Beaver Valley Power Station Mail Stop A-BV-SEB1 P.O. Box 4, Route 168 Shippingport, PA 15077
SUBJECT:
BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT NO. 1 -ACCEPTANCE OF REQUESTED LICENSING ACTION RE: PROPOSED ALTERNATIVE TO AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS BOILER AND PRESSURE VESSEL CODE REACTOR PRESSURE VESSEL HEAD PENETRATION EXAMINATION FREQUENCY REQUIREMENTS (REQUEST 1-TYP-4-RV-05) (CAC NO. MF8531)
Dear Mr. Richey:
By letter dated February 13, 2017 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML17044A440), FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company submitted a relief request for the Beaver Valley Power Station (BVPS), Unit No. 1. The proposed relief request concerns reactor pressure vessel head examination frequency requirements. The purpose of this letter is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff's acceptance review of this relief request. The acceptance review was performed to determine if there is sufficient technical information in scope and depth to allow the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review. The acceptance review is also intended to identify whether the application has any readily apparent information insufficiencies in its characterization of the regulatory requirements or the licensing basis of the plant.
Pursuant to Sections 50.55a(z)(1) and 50.55a(z)(2) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the applicant shall demonstrate that the proposed alternatives would provide an acceptable level of quality and safety, or that compliance with the specified requirements of Section 50.55a would result in hardship or unusual difficulty, without a compensating increase in the level of quality or safety.
The NRC staff has reviewed your application and concluded that it does provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed relief request in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. Given the lesser scope and depth of the acceptance review as compared to the detailed technical review, there may be instances in which issues that impact the NRC staff's ability to complete the detailed technical review are identified, despite completion of an adequate acceptance review. If additional information is needed, you will be advised by separate correspondence.
M. Richey Based on the information provided in your submittal, the NRC staff has estimated that this licensing request will take approximately 115 hours4.792 days <br />0.685 weeks <br />0.158 months <br /> to complete. The NRC staff expects to complete this review by February 22, 2018. If there are emergent complexities or challenges in our review that would cause changes to the initial forecasted completion date or significant changes in the forecasted hours, the reasons for the changes, along with the new estimates, will be communicated during the routine interactions with the assigned project manager.
These estimates are based on the NRC staff's initial review of the application and they could change due to several factors, including requests for additional information and unanticipated additions to scope of the review. Additional delay may occur if the submittal is provided to the NRC in advance or in parallel with industry program initiatives or pilot applications.
If you have any questions, please contact the BVPS Project Manager, Taylor Lamb, at (301) 415-7128 or Taylor.Lamb@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
~
Taylor A. Lamb, Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch I Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-334 cc: Distribution via Listserv
