NLS-92-199 10 CFR 50.46 United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTENTIONs Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555 SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT DOCKET NO. 50-400/LICENSE NO. NPF-63 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEM EVALUATION MODEL CHANGES Gentlemen:

The purpose of this letter is to provide the annual report pursuant to 10 CFR 50.46(a)(3)(ii) for the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant (SHNPP) regarding the estimated effect of changes or errors in Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) evaluation models or in the application of the models.

This report covers the period of June 1991 through May 1992.

There have been no changes to the Westinghouse ECCS Evaluation Model during this reporting period.

However, there are supplements to the analyses of record which were implemented during the previous reporting period, June 1990 through May 1991, which continue to be applicable.

These supplements resulted in permanent assessment of Peak Clad Temperature (PCT) margin as reported to the NRC by Carolina Power 6 Light Company (CPGL) on July 26, 1991.

The enclosures to this letter provide the Margin Utilization Tables which show the effects of permanent assessment of PCT margin for various issues for the Large and Small Break Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) analyses of record.

The information provided is identical to that provided in the July 26, 1991 letter, with one exception.

Subsequent investigation has resulted in an adjustment to the value of peak clad temperature for Small Break LOCA (SBLOCA) due to a revision to the Rod Internal Pressure Assumption from 10'F to 33.3'F.

As a point of clarification, the July 26, 1991 report showed 30'F for the SBLOCA Rod Internal Pressure Assumption.

This item consisted of two components, SBLOCA Cladding Creep Model (20'F) and SBLOCA Rod Internal Pressure Assumption (10'F).

In this annual report, these items are listed separately as Items D.3 and D.4, and only the Rod Internal Pressure value has changed.

The Margin Utilization Tables also include a listing of current open issues which are being investigated, but for which no conclusions have yet been reached.

Should the resolution of these issues impact the 10 CFR 50.46 ECCS evaluation, then CPt L will report them in the next annual report.

Likewise, if any of the issues result in significant change in the calculated
PCT, as defined by 10 CFR 50.46, they will be reported to the NRC in accordance with the 30-day reporting requirement.

As stated in a February 19, 1992 letter, OPED plans to reanalyze both the large and small break LOCA events prior to Cycle 6 for SHNPP, to coincide with a change in nuclear fuel vendors.

Accordingly, these analyses of record will be approved and in place to support Refueling Outage No. 5, currently scheduled to begin in March 1994.

Questions regarding this matter may be referred to Mr. R.

W. Prunty at (919) 546-7318.

~ 1.8 percent steam generator tube plugging margin was assessed to account for possible steam generator tube collapse in the event of a seismic event coincident with a LOCA.

Note that this issue accounted for only full through-wall cracking.
