50-250 50-251 (Proposed Amendments to Facility Operating Licenses to Permit Steam Generator Repair)
AFFIDAVIT OF DARREL A.
NASH ON CONTENTIONS 5
a AND 7 b c
d I, Darrel A. Nash, being duly sworn, state as follows:
1.
I am employed by the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission as a
Section Leader in the Office of State Programs.
2.
Contention 5 states, in part:
In evaluating the steam generator
- repair, the following has not been considered:
(a)
The cost of a full-flow condensate polishing demineralizing system.
3.
Contention 7 states, in part:
The Steam Generator Repair Report is inadequate because:
(a) it has used the inaccurate figure of $300,000 per day per unit for replacement power costs for reactor outage, (c) it has failed to consider the costs of addition of a full-flow condensate polishing demineral,izing system and of condenser
- retubing, and (d) it has failed to update costs from December 1977 due to inf1ation.
i
4.
The Applicant has supplied the costs of the above-specified items for consideration by the HRC in its review of the proposed repairs.
These costs are identified in section 4.2 of the final Environmental Statement (FES)
(HUREG-0743), dated
- March, 1981.
As stated therein, the costs of a full-flow condensate polishing demineralizing system is estimated at
$9,000,000 for both units.
Present estimates of replacement power costs for the unit 4 outage in 1981-1982 are
$ 756,000 per day and
$809,000 per day for the unit 3 outage in 1982-1983.
The total cost of retubing the condenser with titanium tubing between 1976 and 1980 was approximately
$8,000,000 for both units.
5.
The total project is estimated to cost
$459,000,000.
This combines the
$136,000,000 cost of purchasing and installing the new steam generators and disposing of the old steam generators and the
$323,000,000 cost for replacement power for both units.
This does not include the
$9,000,000 cost of the condensate polishing demineralizing system which is not regarded as an integral part of the repair project (See SER, 53.2.4).
These cost figures are both reasonable and realistic for the items involved.

These are need for power and system reliability, financial qualifications of applicants and indem-nification under provisions of the Price-Anderson Act.
