SUBJECT:
ST.
LUCIE UNITS 1 AND 2 - PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK EVALUATION (TAC NOS.
M95484 AND M95485)
Dear Mr. Plunkett By letter dated May 14, 1996, Florida Power and Light Company submitted a
pressurized thermal shock (PTS) evaluation for St. Lucie Units 1 and 2.
In addition, proprietary and non-proprietary copies of the Combustion Engineering Owner's Group report CEN-405-P, Revision 2, "Application of Reactor Vessel Surveillance Data for Embrittlement Management" were enclosed for Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) review and approval.
By teleconference conducted on August 27, 1996, the NRC staff suggested that new proprietary and non-proprietary reports be submitted since data extracted from the power reactor embrittlement database (PR-EDB) are non-proprietary.
New proprietary and non-proprietary versions of CEN-405-P (designated Revision
- 3) were submitted by letter dated September 23, 1996.
Additional information was pr'ovided by letters dated January 14 and May 16, 1997.
The January 14, 1997 letter changed the requested approval date from April 1, 1997 to April 1, 1998 due to scheduled outage changes.
The NRC staff has completed its review of the submittals.
In our safety evaluation, which is enclosed, we have concluded that the St.
Lucie Units 1
and 2 reactor vessels are projected to be below the PTS screening criteria at the expi ration of their licenses.
Since this conclusion is dependent upon the
.available chemistry data and surveillance data, it is subject to change when new data become available.
Sincerely,
/S/
