Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2 - Measurement Uncertainty Recapture Power Uprate RE: Follow-up RAI EMIB No. 1 (EPID L-2019-LLS-0002)

Dear Ms. Coleman,

By letter dated October 30, 2019 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Package Accession No. ML19308A761), as supplemented on November 25, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19331A099), the Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc.,

submitted a license amendment request (LAR) for the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP),

Units 1 and 2.

By letter dated April 22, 2020 (ADAMS Accession No. ML20113E970), SNC responded to a Request for Additional Information.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has determined that additional information is needed regarding RAI EMIB No. 1 as discussed during a clarification call on April 28, 2020.

Follow-up RAI for EMIB RAI No. 1 The EMIB RAI No. 1 response specifies that the Farley ASME Codes of Record for Inservice Testing (IST) and Inservice Inspection (ISI) are ASME OM Code (2004 Edition thru 2006 Addenda) and ASME BPV Code,Section XI (2007 Edition thru 2008 Addenda), respectively.

The NRC regulations at 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(v)(B) state, in part, that licensees must comply with the provisions for examination and testing of snubbers in Subsection ISTD of the ASME OM Code when using the 2006 Addenda and later editions and addenda of Section XI of the ASME BPV Code. Please clarify why ASME BPV Code,Section XI, is used for the ISI program for snubbers at Farley.

Please respond within 30 days of the date of this correspondence. If you have any questions, please contact me at 301-415-1009 or via e-mail at Shawn.Williams@nrc.gov.

Sincerely, Shawn A. Williams, Senior Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch, II-1 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket Nos. 50-348 and 50-364 cc w/encl: Listserv
