January 30, 1996 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Serial No.96-025 Attention: Document Control Desk NL&OS/JBL: R1 Washington, D.C. 20555 Docket Nos. 50-338 50-339 License Nos. NPF-4 NPF-7 Gentlemen: l l
VJBGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY NORTH ANNA POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 PROPOSED TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS CHANGES MINIMUM REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM TOTAL FLOW RATE Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, Virginia Electric and Power Company requests an amendment, in the form of changes to the Technical Specifications, to Facility Operating License Nos. NPF-4 and NPF-7 for North Anna Power Station Units 1 and 2, respectively. The proposed changes will modify Table 3.2-1 of Technical Specification 3.2.5 to increase the minimum allowable reactor coolant system (RCS) total flow rate from 284,000 gpm (Unit 1) and 275,300 gpm (Unit 2) to 295,000 gpm (Units 1 and 2).
These changes will increase the available analysis margin and make the Technical 4
Specifications for RCS total flow rate consistent between the North Anna Units. The additional analysis margin will allow future improved reload core design limits.
A discussion of the proposed changes is provided in Attachment 1. The proposed Technical Specifications changes are provided in Attachment 2. It has been l determined that the proposed changes do not involve an unreviewed safety question i as defined in 10 CFR 50.59 or a significant hazards consideration as defined in 10 '
CFR 50.92. The basis for our determination that the changes do not involve a l significant hazards consideration is provided in Attachment 3. The proposed Technical Specifications changes have been reviewed and approved by the Station <
Nuclear Safety and Operating Committee and the Management Safety Review Committee.
Should you have any questions or require additional information, please contact us.

Discussion of Chances Introduction As required by Technical Specifications 3.2.5 and 4. 2. 5. 2 (1) ,
Virginia Electric and Power Company performs Reactor Coolant System (RCS) flow measurements at each of North Anna Units 1 and 2 once per 18 months. The safety analyses are based in part on verifying, via the Technical Specifications surveillance, that the RCS Total Flow Rate is greater than or equal to 284,000 gallons per minute (gpm) for Unit 1 and 275,300 gpm for Unit 2.
The proposed Technical Specifications change increases the minimum allowable RCS Total Flow Rate from 284,000 gpm (Unit 1) and 275,300 (Unit 2) to 295,000 gpm (Units 1 and 2). This change when implemented will increase the available analysis margin and make the Technical Specifications for RCS total flow rate consistent for North Anna Units 1 and 2. The additional analysis margin will
' allow future improved reload core design limits (such as FAh and MTC).
The existing safety analyses are analyzed for a lower RCS flow rate limit, and are bounding with respect to expected actual plant behavior and to analyses at the proposed RCS total flow rate.
Therefore, no unreviewed safety question or significant hazard consideration is generated by the proposed Technical Specifications ;
change to the RCS Total Flow Rate.
packaround Through the 1980's and into the 1990's, the North Anna Unit 1 and 2 steam generators experienced increasing levels of steam generator tube plugging (SGTP). There was a corresponding decrease in the l
RCS flow rate. As a result, the Technical Specifications minimum RCS total flow rate was reduced at both units [2,3,4]. These '
reductions in minimum allowable RCS total flow rate reduced the available DNBR margin.
J Virginia Electric and Power Company replaced the North Anna Unit 1 steam generators during the refueling shutdown between Cycles 9 and l 10, and replaced the North Anna Unit 2 steam generators during the I refueling shutdown between Cycles 10 and 11. The replacement steam l generators have an increased number of tubes and primary side flow I area (approximately 6%) than the old Model 51 steam generators, and I therefore, less flow resistance. The predicted RCS total flow rate l with the replacement steam generators was 308,550 gpm. I 1
The reactor coolant system (RCS) total flow was measured in accordance with Technical Specifications subsequent to startup following the last refueling for each unit. The measured results of the RCS total flow were found to be greater than 308,000 gpm for I these tests. l I

The proposed Technical Specification change increases the minimum RCS Total Flow Rate to 295,000 gpm. The Technical Specification change when implemented will increase the available analysis margin and make the Technical Specifications for RCS total flow rate consistent between the North Anna units. -
Current Licensina Basis
- As required by Technical Specifications 3.2.5 and 4. 2. 5. 2 [1],
Virginia Electric and Power Company performs RCS flow measurements at each of North Anna Units 1 and 2 once per 18 months. The Technical Specifications RCS total flow rate has been reduced at both units to accommodate the steam generator tube plugging (SGTP) which had existed in the previous steam generators [2,3,4]. The Technical Specifications require an RCS Total Flow Rate greater than or equal to 284,000 gpm for Unit 1 and greater than or equal to 275,300 gpm for Unit 2.
1 Current Desian Basis The safety analyses are based in part on verifying, via the Technical Specifications surveillance, that the measured RCS total flow rate is greater than or equal to 284,000 gpm for Unit 1 and greater than or equal to 275,300 gpm for Unit 2. This verification ensures that the as-measured RCS flow rate is bounded by the assumed RCS flow rate in the applicable safety analyses, t
Discussion 1 The proposed Technical Specifications change increases the minimum allowable RCS Total Flow Rate from 284,000 gpm (Unit 1) and 275,300 (Unit 2) to 295,000 gpm (Units 1 and 2). This change when implemented will increase the available analysis margin and make the Technical Specifications for RCS total flow rate consistent between the North Anna units. The additional analysis margin will allow future improved reload core design limits (such as Fah and MTC).
The proposed minimum RCS total flow rate (295,000 gpm) was chosen such that the possibility of a violation of the requirement was mir.imal. The measured RCS flow rate with the replacement steam generators is in excess of 308,000 gpm for both units. Hence, there exists approximately 4.2% margin between the measured flow and the proposed Technical Specifications limit. This is sufficient to accommodate the variability in the RCS measurement, l and potential changes which may affect RCS flow resistance. )

gnacific Chances The following specific Technical Specification (TS) changes apply to Units 1 and 2 as noted:
Unit 1, Table 3.2-1. DNB Parameters, of TS 3.2.5
- Remove the following note from the bottom of Table 3.2-1 (page 3/4 2-15): -
"*** The value for the minimum allowable Reactor Coolant System Total Flow Rate is reduced to 268,500 gpm until steam generator replacement."
Unit 2. Table 3.2-1. DNB Parameters, of TS 3.2.5
Safety Sienificance The RCS flow rate is an assumption in safety analyses, affecting UFSAR Chapter 15 transient analyses, Reactor Core Safety Limits (RCSLs), and thermal overtemperature and overpower AT protection functions.
An increase in the minimum RCS flow rate limit generates a benefit for safety analyses which have a DNBR acceptance criterion. For other safety analyses which are limited by considerations such as heat sink or pressurization criteria, an increased RCS flow rate limit is either a benefit, or the event is insensitive to RCS flow rate. The existing safety analyses are analyzed for a lower RCS flow rate limit, and are bounding with respect to expected actual plant behavior and to analyses at the proposed RCS total flow rate.
Therefore, no reanalyses are required to support the proposed Technical Specifications change.
The proposed changes have been reviewed against the criteria of 10 CFR 50.59. This review concluded that these proposed changes do not result in an unreviewed safety question. The basis for this determination is as follows: -
- 1. The probability of occurrence or the consequences of an '
accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report would not increase. The proposed Technical Specifications change only increases the minimum allowable RCS total flow rate in the applicable Limiting Condition of Operation. No other changes are being made to allowable operating conditions defined by Technical Specifications, procedures, or to any plant design Page 3 of 4
feature by the implementation of this change. There is no impact on . the actual plant performance. Changes in the assumed initial conditions for the accident have no bearing on the probability of occurrence of the assumed accident or malfunction. The RCS flow rate is an assumption in applicable safety analyses. Existing analyses of record have assumed RCS flow rates which are bounding with respect to expected actual plant behavior. Therefore, the implementation of the proposed Technical Specifications change does not affect the probability nor increase the consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
- 2. The possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the safety analysis report would not be created. The proposed change to North Anna Units 1 and 2 Technical Specifications Table 3.2-1 does not involve any alterations to the physical plant which would introduce any new or unique operational modes or accident precursors. Only the allowable value for measured Reactor Coolant System Total Flow Rate will be changed.
- 3. The margin of safety as defined in the basis for any technical specifications is not reduced. The proposed Technical Specifications change only increases the minimum allowable RCS total flow rate in the applicable Limiting Condition of Operation. The RCS flow rate is an assumption in applicable safety analyses. Existing analyses of record have assumed RCS flow rates which are bounding with respect to expected actual plant behavior. Therefore, the margin of safety is not reduced by the proposed increase in the allowable RCS Total Flow Rate.
