INTERROGATORIES ON 15AA INTERROGATORY NO.15AA-(2d)-17(a) Does CP&L have an estimate of the length of refueling outages (or of a typical refueling outage) for the Harris plant?

l

- . = . -

~

ANSWER: Yes. -

.(b) If answer to (a) is affirmative, what is that estimate in terms of time per refueling outage?

' ANSWER: . Applicants' estimate of the length of a typical refueling outage, based on refueling' operations only, is approximately seve$ weeks. However, during refueling

~ (end of the operating cycle), plant maintenance and inspections are also performed.

Estimates of the length of a typical refueling, maintenance, and inspection outage range from fifteen weeks for the first two outages to thirteen weeks for subsequent end-of-cycle outages.

(c) Please s!ste succinctly all significant bases CP&L relies upon in estimating the length of refueling outages for Harris.. If the outages are estimated to differ in length, please explain all significant reasons for such variations in length of time per refueling outage.

ANSWER:' Applicants' time estimate is based on the vendor's estimated schedule for refueling operations, on anticipated requirements for plant maintenance and inspection, and on outage experience gained at H. B. Robinson Unit No. 2. The estimate of the end-of-cycle outage lengths cited in (b) above reflects a reduction in the length, beginning with the third such outage, based on maturity of the plant.

(d)- Did anyone besides CP&L contribute to your estimate of length of refueling outage (s) for Harris?

ANSWER: Yes.

(e) If answer to (d)is affirmative, please identify each such person (or organization if the organization provided information but you don't know which person (s) provided the information.

ANSWER: Westinghouse Electric Corporation.

(f) How long do you estimate Harris will normally operate (hours or otner units of time) between refueling outages?

ANSWER: Applicants' current estimate of the Harris operating cycle lengths

. (period between refueling outages) per unit is as follows:

Operating Cycle Length Operating Cycle No. (Weeks) 1 (From Conimercial Operation Date) 53 2 63 3 (and Following) ,

68 (g) Has'anyone besides CP&L (e.g. Westinghouse, Ebasco, etc) estimated how long the Harris plant will normally operate between refueling outages?

ANSWER: Not to Applicants' knowledge.

(h) If answer to (g) is affirmative, please state each such estimate you possess.

ANSWER: Not applicable.

(j) . Please state all significant bases known to you for each estimate given in response to (f) or (h) above, identifying the person (s) (or organizations where no persons are known to you but the organization provided information for the estimate) who contributed to or made or provided (i) the estimate (ii) any basis for each estimate.

ANSWER: The lengths of the Harris operating cycle are derived by dividing the estimate of reactor core Effective Full Power Days (EFPD) by the projected thermal capacity factor for that cycle. The number of EFPD's is calculated on the basis of the expected design of the reactor core for each cycle. These calculations are made by the Nuclear Fuels Section of CP&L's Fuels Department. Projected thermal espacity factors are the result of an evaluation of historical capacity factors of CP&L units and recent Westinghouse units. These data are prepared by the Nuclear Staff Support Section of the CP&L's Nuclear Generation Group.

(1) Has CP&L or anyone else known to you estimated the frequency of (i) reactor trips (ii) turbine trips (iii) reactor scrams (iv) forced outages (v) deratings of output (electrical or thermal or both) (vi) partial forced outages, for Harris 1, Harris 2, or both units?

ANSWER: No.

' ANSWER: To be provided by Supplemental Response.

INTERROGATORY NO.15AA-(2d)-18(a) In' response to Interrogatory 3 on 15AA, you cite " utility operating experience"; in response to Interrogatory 7 on 15AA you cite

" nuclear industry experience for units similar to the Harris units"; in response to Interrogatory 8 thereon, you cite " industry experience"; in response to Interrogatory 13 thereon you cite " general industry experience"; in response to interrogatory 39 thereon, you cite " industry experience with units similar to the Harris units." For each of these statements, are you referring to actual experience of capacity factors for nuclear units?

ANSWER: The term '" utility operating experience" refers to general utility operating experience at the time the projection was made, which was primarily experience with fossil-fired units. For the other statements referenced in this interrogatory, Applicants were referring to actual experience with capacity factors for nuclear units.

b) If your answer to (a), for any quote cited therein, is other than affirmative, please explain for each such cited language excerpt, what the " experience" is you are referring to, stating whether it is for nuclear units or not, what time (s)if any your are referring to experience in, and what way you use this " experience"in estimating capacity factor.

ANSWER: Regarding the term " utility operating experience," there were relatively few commercial nuclear generating units in operation at the time Mr. Morgan's l projection was made. Therefore, the operating experience generally used by the industry l

l as a basis for nuclear projections was primarily that of fossil units in operation. Itis l

! ' recollected that the general industry approach was based on the assumption that a nuclear unit would not experience the maintenance requirements or outages attributable I

to fossil boilers. It was thought that annual maintenance and modifications, as necessary, could be accomplished during the relatively short refueling outages. By not having boiler-related outages, the primary contributor to forced outages was the turbine-

. generator. Because the nuclear turbines operate at lower temperature and pressure than fossil turbines, it was expected that nuclear turbines would have fewer forced outages

than fossil turbines. Therefore, the projections of nuclear operating performance were generally based on relatively.short refueling outages and fossil turbine-generator related forced outages.

(c) Does CP&L believe that- actual capacity factors in commercial operating experience for nuclear- power plants are useful in (i) projecting capacity factors of

. similar nuclear power plants (ii) projecting capacity factors of new nuclear plants made by the same manufacturer (iii) projecting capacity factors of new nuclear plants of the

same type (i.e. PWR, BWR, HTGR, etc)
please answer specifically for PWks (iv) in L _ making estimates of the net output of new nuclear plants?

ANSWER: (i): - Yes.

(ii): Yes.

(iii): Yes.

(iv): Yes.

(d) Please sta_te the basis for your answer to each part of (c) above, including all expert opinions, documents, studies or facts or other information you rely on.

ANSWER: Historical operating experience is one of many useful parameters in projecting future performance. ' Generally,the more precisely the historical data can be matched to a'particular application (e.g., the greater the similarities between the plants compared), the more confidence one can have in using historical data as a basis for projections. ' The number of observations or data points must also be considered to assure h that the historical basis for making such projections is statistically sound.

(e) Do you (or anyone working for you) recall whether CP&L was the one who provided the information to the NC Utilities Commission in its Docket E-2 sub 203 (Harris plant certificate of convenience and necessity) that Harris was similar to Beaver Valley and North Anna?

~

ANSWER: Yes.

(f)If answer to (e)is affirmative, did CP&L provide the information that Harris was similar to (i) Beaver Valley (ii) North Anna (iii both?

ANSWER: (1): Yes.

(ii): Yes.

(iii): Yes.

ANSWER: To be provided by Supplemental Response.

(p) Is the " industry experience" you refer to in the responses cited in 18(a) above always limited to the experience of the commercial LWR nuclear industry within the

-USA? (i) If not, please state what (aa) noncommercial (bb) non-LWR (ce) non- US experience you refer to in each such answer.

ANSWER: Except for the reference to fossil-fired units discussed in Applicants' l

response to Interrogatory 15AA (2d)-18(a) above, the term " industry experience" refers to the commercial LWR nuclear industry within the United States.

7 (q) Does CP&L now dispute the NC Utilities Commission's finding in its Order in

Docket E-2 sub 203 (granting certificate of convenience and necessity to construct the Harris plant, 4 units) that (i) Harris is similar in design to Beaver Valley (ii) Harris is similar in design to North Anna (iii) Harris was expected to have an 80% capacity factor?

(iv) If your answer to any of parts I,11 or lii immediately above is affirmative, please state (aa) whether CP&L took exception to this finding (bb) whether CP&L appealed this finding (ce) whether CP&L has ever sought otherwise to reopen the record in Docket E-2 sub 203 to change this finding, for each such finding. (v)If an answer to any part of (iv) above is affirmative, please provide details of each such exception, appeal, or attempt to correct or reopen the record, when filed, what the result was, and identifying all documents you possess relating to it. (vi) Has CP&L, in its annual reports to the NCUC on the Harris plant under its Order in Docket E-2 sub 203, ever told the NCUC that Harris is no longer expected to perform at an 80% capacity factor? If so, when, at what l page(s)? (vil) Has CP&L ever informed the NCUC in any other filing of its in Docket E-2 sub 203 that Harris is no longer expected to perform at an 80% capacity factor? (viii)

Has CP&L ever informed the NCUC of the Staff's estimate of Harris capacity factor for the DES? If so, when and how; please identify all documents used to so inform the NCUC, giving the date and author of each, and any response the NCUC has made thereto (documented or known to you).

l ANSWER (i): Applicants do not dispute the finding of the North Carolina Utilities Commission which was based on the testimony presented in Docket No. E-2, Sub 203.

(ii): Applicants do not dispute the finding of the North Carolina Utilities Commission which was based on the testimony presented in Docket j No. E-2, Sub 203.  :

1 (iii): Applicants do not dispute that based on the best information j

( l available at the time of the granting of the Certificate of Public l L

' l l 4 l

l l

Convenience and Necessity, the Harris units were projected to operate at an 80% capacity factor.

(iv): Applicants wish to point out that the projected 80% capacity factor referred to in part (iii) of this interrogatory does not appear in any of the Findings of Fact, Conclusions, or Ordering paragraphs of the NCUC's Order under Docket No. E-2, Sub 203. Therefore, ,

Applicants' response to this part of Interrogatory 15AA-(2d)-18(q) refers only to the similarity of the Harris Units to other nuclear units as mentioned only in Finding No. 6 of the above-referenced order.

(aa) CP&L did not take exception to this finding.

(bb) CP&L has not appealed this finding.

(cc) CP&L has not sought to otherwise open the record in Docket E-2, Sub 203 to change the findings contained therein.

'(v): Not applicable.

(vi): The annual report under Docket E-2, Sub 203 requires a progress report on construction and the anticipated operational dates for the facility. Projected capacity factor has not been addressed in these l

! annual reports. However,in other filings and proceedings before the I NCUC, capacity factor projections of less than 80% have been used i

and/or discussed. For example, in Docket No. E-2, Sub 461 a CP&L witness referred to a capacity factor of approximately 60% for Harris Unit 1.

(vii): No.

(viii): CP&L has not notified the NCUC directly of the capacity factor used by the NRC Staff in the Harris DES. However, a member of the Public . Staff of the NCUC is on the distribution list for all documents in this proceeding, including the correspondence citing the 55% capacity factor estimate used by the NRC, such as the July

. ' 1, 1983 " Applicants' Respo'nse to the Board's May 27, -1983 Memorandum and Order."

(r) Does CP&L believe that the NRC Staff's 55% capacity factor for Harris is (i) right (ii) wrong (iii) close enough for use in the NRC operating license proceeding (iv) too low (v) too high? (vi) Please give the basis for your answers to each part (i) thru (v) above.

. ANSWER: See Applicants' July 1,1983. response to the Board's May 27, 1983 Memorandum and Order.

(s) With respect to your response to Interrogatory 11 on 15-AA, and attachment A thereof, please state (i) what the (aa) 1ifetime CF (DER) (bb) 1ifetime EFOR (ce) lifetime average weeks per year of planned maintenance are for Robinson 2, Brunswick 1 and Brunswick 2 respectively; (ii) How, if at all, the actual lifetime CF, EFOR or planned ,

maintenance time for Robinson 2, Brunswick 1 or Brunswick 2 entered into the estimates of (aa) Capacity Factor (bb) EFOR (ce) planned maintenance (weeks / year) given for Harris (dd) 1 (ee) 2(nuclear units) given in Attachment A re interrogatory 11 on 15AA.

Please state any calculations made, and any assumptions made, in using information re actual lifetime EFORs, CFs and planned maintenance of CP&L's existing nuclear units,

,- re Harris .-nuclear units' estimated CF, EFORs, and outage length for planned maintenance.

l ANSWER: The wording of this interrogatory is vague and convoluted. Applicants have interpreted part (i) to refer to historical data through the most current date for ,

which records are.available. Applicants have interpreted part (ii) to refer to projections of future system operation based on the study done for the NCUC Cogeneration Hearings in December,1982. On the basis of these interpretations, the following answers are l provided.

(i)(aa): The lifetime CF(DER) for CP&L units through 9-30-83 is:

f Brunswick Unit 1 - 44%

Brunswick Unit 2 - 43%

l f Robinson Unit 2 - 63%

l

.o (bb)-(ce): . Lifetime EFOR and lifetime average weeks per year of planned maintenance have not been calculated and are not maintained by Applicants.

(ii)(aa):~ - The capacity factor for the. Harris units shown in response to Interrogatory 11 was an indirect result of the modeling process t ,

and was dependent ~upon the estimate of planned maintenance 3 time and forced outage rates used.

_ (bb): Applicants do not routinely use EFOR data in planning or modeling its nuclear . units._ The EFOR data provided in response to the first set of interrogatories were compiled -

specifically in response to those interrogatories. A primary i

basis for the EFOR data reflected in response to Interrogatory 11 was the " Ten Year Review 1970-1979 NERC Report on

- Equipment Availability." To the extent that Robinson Unit 2 and Brunswick Units 1 and 2 data were included in that report, such data for that period were reflected in the EFOR data provided.

(ce}-(ee): The estimated planned maintenance time for the Harris units was not based on historical information for Brunswick, but on the then current planning assumptions for Robinson Unit 2 which considered CP&L's experience with that unit.

.(t) Please sta'te (i) the actual length, in hours, or weeks, or any other time units you

- have the information in, for each refueling outage the Robinson 2 plant has had in commercial operation, giving the date and year on which each such outage commenced if known. (ii) the actual EFOR for Robinson 2 for (aa) its lifetime (bb) for each calendar year'1971-1982 'and for 1983 when that data becomes available (iii) the actual CF for Robinson 2 for the years 1979,1980,1981,1982 and 1983. Where your CF data differs from the NUREG-0020 - CF data, please give any explanation known to you for the difference (s). (iv) the actually-achieved DER OF (annual) for North Anna 1 for the years 1979,1980,'1981,1982 and 1983 '(v) the actually achieved DER CF (annual) for North Anna 2 for the years 1980,1981,1982 and 1983; (vi) the actual DER CF (annual) for

Beaver Valley I for each of the years 1980,1981,1982 and 1983 (and 1979 also). (vii) do you know the lifetime EFOR for Beaver Valley I through 1982? to present? If so, please state each such lifetime EFOR. (viii) Do you know the lifetime EFOR of (aa) North Anna 1 (bb) North Anna 2, as of the end of 1982 or as of any other c .te? If so, please state each lifetime EFOR you know for a North Anna unit, giving the date it is through and the unit it applies to.

ANSWER' (1): It should be noted that " refueling outages" generally include annual maintenance and inspections, and may also include major maintenance projects and plant modifications as well as normal refueling activities. Refueling, annual maintenance, and inspection outages at Robinson Unit 2 since commercial operation are as follows:

No.1 - 8.5 weeks beginning 3-16-73 No. 2 - 7 weeks beginning 5-6-74 No. 3 - 6 weeks beginning 10-31-75 No. 4 - 6 weeks beginning 10-29-76 No. 5 - 12 weeks beginning 1-27-78 No. 6 - 14.5 weeks beginning 4-11-79 No. 7 - 11 weeks beginning 8-8-80 No. 8 - 21 weeks beginning 2-26-82 (ii): EFOR data is not routinely calculated and maintained by Applicants.

(iii): Actual CF (MDC) for Robinson 2 is as follows:

1979 - 68.8 %

1980 - 54.6 %

1981 - 60.1 %

1982 - 38.7 %

i '

1983 - 62.7% (through 9-30-83)

These capacity factors are consistent with those in NUREG-0020 for all years except 1980, where the NRC shows 55 percent. The small discrepancy is due to different methods used by the NRC and 7

CP&L at that time to account for negative generation.

(iv) -(viii): As stated in response to Interrogatories 15AA-(2d)-18(j) and (s),

Applicants do not calculate and maintain DER CF for non-CP&L y units or EFORs for any units. Although Applicants have some CF (MDC) data on the units in question, that data is not maintained in ,

the format requested.

(u) (a) In your attachment B (9-16-83 responses to interrogatories on 15AA), related to interrogatory 29 thereon, are the Brunswick and Robinson 2 CF data different by more than 1% for any year (from) those shown in attachment A therein re Interrogatory 11?

(b) Are the planned maintenance data for Brunswick, Robinson 2 and Harris the same in Attachment A and attachment B except for Brunswick 1 in 1983? (c) Are the EFORs for Brunswick 1 ano 2 and for Robinson 2 always the same in Attachment A as in attachment B in each year? (d) Are the Harris 1 and 2 CFs, except for Harris 2 in 1989, at a 5% (or more) higher level in Attachment E than in Attachment A? (e) Are the Harris 1 and 2 EFORs shown in Attachment B maturing in one year from 29% to 16%? (f) Are the Harris.1 and 2 EFORs in Attachment A maturing over 3 years from 30% to 22%? (g)

Does CP&L have any data concerning how long it takes the actual EFORs of Westin'ghouse PWRs to mature (i.e. stop declining)? (h) What EFOR data on Westinghouse PWRs does CP&L possess? (i) Does CP&L really believe that Harris 1 or 2 could actually mature in terms of EFOR within one year of commercial operation? (j) Does CP&L actually believe that the Harris 1 or 2 EFOR in operation will be 16 percent (or average 16%) in the second and following years of operation? (k) Please state all basis for your answers to (i) and (j) above including allinformation you rely on in making your answer to each of these 2 questions.

ANSWER (a): Yes.

(b): No, the planned maintenance for Robinson Unit 2 also varies in

-1983.

, (c)
Yes.

.(d): Y es.

(e): Yes. This data reflects a computer simulation that was made for use in the Harris ER Amendment 5, in which three capacity factor I

sensitivity cases were analyzed. For these particular cases, the

normal unit maturation process was not fully modeled. However, Applicants do not anticipate that this fact would significantly alter the long term results of this study.

, (f): Yes.

(g): No. CP&L does not routinely use EFOR data for nuclear units.

(h): None.

(i): No. As stated in part (e) of this interrogatory, this was a simulation in which the normal unit maturation was not fully modeled.

Q): See Applicants' response to part (i) of this interrogatory.

(k):

Applicants' answers to parts (i) and Q) of this interrogatory are based on a review and recollection of the study performed.

4 (ii): As reflected in the Final Environmental Statement (FES) for each plant, the ' capacity factors used for Robinson Unit 2, and the Brunswick units in the OL stage were all 80%.

(c) If you know, for each reactor inquired about in (a) above, what CF did the ASLB adopt at the (i) CP (ii) OL stage?

ANSWER:

Applicants are not aware that the ~ licensing Board " adopted" any capacity factor at the CP stage for Harris, Brunswick or Robinson, or that it " adopted" a capacity factor at the OL stage for Brunswick or Robinson. In each instance, the Board did approve the FES which was based on an 80 percent capacity factor. Applicants do not know the capacity factors " adopted" at the CP or OL stage for the other units referenced in Interrogatory 15 AA(2d)-19(a).

(d) Does CP&L dispute the ruling of the NC Utilities Commission in Docket E-2 sub 444 that CP&L management was at fault for the length of the Brunswick turbine outage?

OBJECTION. Applicants object to this Interrogatory on the basis that it exceecs the proper bounds of discovery on the capacity factor issue by delving into the area of management capability. In admitting Contention 15AA, the Board stated that "[olur admission of this contention is not to be construed as reopening discovery" on the subject of management capability. Memorandum and Order Ruling on Wells Eddleman's Contentions on the Staff Draft Environmental Statement at 7 (August 18, 1983). 3 (e) Does CP&L dispute the ruling of the NCUC in Docket E-2 sub 461 that CP&L ~3 management was responsible for the failure to test the Brunswick plant as required by NRC, which failure led to an extended shutdown in the summer of 1982?  ;

OBJECTION. See response to Interrogatory No.15AA(2d)-19(d) above.

9 (f) - Does CP&L dispute that the Brunswick turbine outage of 1981 reduced y l Brunswick's capacity factor for 1981?

ANSWER: No. ~

ANSWER: No.

(h) Please give all basis for your answers to (d), (e), (f) and (g) above, stating which basis applies to which answer.

ANSWE.R: For Interrogatories 15AA(2d)-19(d) and (e), see Applicants' objections. ,

For Interrogatories (f) and (g) capacity factor is by definition a function of the on-line time of a unit. Therefore, any outage or shutdown will reduce the capacity factor.
