Serial No.: 19-367 Docket Nos.: 50-280/281 Page 1 of 3 Response to NRC Requests for Confirmation of Information Set 2 Subsequent License Renewal Application Surry Power Station Units 1 and 2 By letter dated October 15, 2018 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML18291A842), as supplemented by letters dated January 29, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19042A137), and April 2, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19095A666), Virginia Electric and Power Company (Dominion Energy Virginia or Dominion) submitted an application for the subsequent license renewal of Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-32 and DPR-37 for Surry Power Station (SPS) Units 1 and 2, respectively.

Between February 4 and April 25, 2019, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff conducted audits of Dominion records to confirm information submitted in the SPS Subsequent License Renewal Application (SLRA). During the audits, the staff reviewed several documents that contain information that will likely be used in conclusions documented in the Safety Evaluation Report (SER), but which has not been previously submitted to the NRC on the docket.

Any information used to reach a conclusion in the SER must be included on the docket by the applicant.

Therefore, in an email dated August 20, 2019, the NRC staff transmitted two requests for confirmation of information (RCls) gathered during the audits noted above.

The NRC RCls and Dominion Energy Virginia's confirmation of each RCI are provided below.

REQUESTS FOR CONFIRMATION OF INFORMATION (RCls)

RCI No. 1:

1. SLRA Table 3.2.1, item 3.2.1-028; Table 3.3.1, items 3.3.1-043 and 3.3.1-044; and Table 3.4.1, item 3.4.1-023, state that there are no in-scope stainless steel piping or piping components; or steel with stainless steel cladding or stainless steel heat exchanger components exposed to closed-cycle cooling water greater than 60°C (greater than 140°F) in the engineered safety features systems, auxiliary systems, and steam and power conversion systems, respectively.

UFSAR Table 9.4-1, "Component Cooling Water Design Data," states that the component cooling water pumps have a design temperature of 180°F and the heat exchangers, surge tanks, and chemical addition tanks have a design temperature of 150°F.

UFSAR Table 9.4-1 states that the maximum operating temperature for the component cooling water heat exchangers is 119. 7°F.

However, it is not clear to the staff that all in-scope stainless steel piping and piping components and steel with stainless steel cladding or stainless steel heat exchanger components exposed to closed-cycle l

Serial No.: 19-367 Docket Nos.: 50-280/281 Page 2 of 3 cooling water are exposed to temperatures less than 140°F because UFSAR Section 9. 4. 1. 1 states that, "[t]he component cooling water system is designed to reduce the temperature of the reactor coolant to 140°F based on a river water temperature of 100°F." While the UFSAR does not conflict with these AMR items, it could be possible that there are in-scope stainless steel or steel with stainless steel cladding components exposed to temperatures greater than 140°F.

Confirm that there are no in-scope stainless steel piping or piping components or steel with stainless steel cladding or stainless steel heat exchanger components exposed to closed-cycle cooling water greater than 140°F or system conditions greater than 140°F while being exposed to closed-cycle cooling water in the engineered safety features systems, auxiliary systems, and steam and power conversion systems.

Dominion Response:

During operation of the alternate AC diesel generator engine, portions of the alternate AC diesel generator jacket water cooling subsystem are exposed to closed-cycle cooling water >60°C (>140°F). The cooling subsystem contains stainless steel restricting orifices which, therefore, are exposed to closed-cycle cooling water >60°C

(>140°F). As a result, the Closed Treated Water Systems (B2.1.12) program will manage the aging effect of cracking for the stainless steel restricting orifices.

There are no other stainless steel piping or piping components, steel with stainless steel cladding or stainless steel heat exchanger components exposed to closed-cycle cooling water >60°C (>140°F) that are subject to aging management review in the engineered safety features systems, auxiliary systems, and steam and power conversion systems.

SLRA Changes SLRA Tables 3.3.1 and 3.3.2-37 and Section 3.3.2.1.37 are supplemented, as shown in, to reflect aging management of the stainless steel restricting orifices described above.

RCI No. 2:

Serial No.: 19-367 Docket Nos.: 50-280/281 Page 3 of 3 SLRA Table 3.2.1, item 3.2.1-029 states that there are no in-scope steel piping or piping components exposed to closed-cycle cooling water in the engineered safety features systems.

UFSAR Section 9.4.2 states, "[cjarbon steel pipe is used throughout the system." While the UFSAR does not conflict with item 3.2.1-029, it could be possible that there are in-scope steel piping or piping components exposed to closed-cycle cooling water in the engineered safety features systems.

Confirm that there are no in-scope steel piping or piping components exposed to closed-cycle cooling water in the engineered safety features systems.

Dominion Response:

This information has been confirmed to be correct as stated.

Exceptions apply to the NUREG-2191 recommendations for Open-Cycle Cooling Water System (B2.1.11) progra m implementation. Flow blockage is not an applicable aging effect requiring management for nonsafety-related components that do not support a function of delivering downstream flow, or for strainer elements that are monitored for clogging.

Consistent with NUREG-2191 with exceptions. Cracking (titanium only) and reduction of heat transfer of copper alloy or titanium heat exchanger tubes exposed to raw water is managed by the Open-Cycle Cooling Water System (B2.1.11) program. Cracking of titanium components other than heat exchanger tubes exposed to treated water is managed by the Inspection of Internal Surfaces in Miscellaneous Piping and Ducting Components (B2.1.25) program. Exceptions apply to the NUREG-2191 recommendations for Open-Cycle Cooling Water System (B2.1.11) program implementation.
