SASES V

The ASME approach for calculating the allowable Ilmit curves for var us he up and cooldown rates specifies that the total stress intensity fa or, K,

e the combined thermal and pressure stresses at any time durin heatup l

g or cool wn cannot be greater than the reference stress intensity actor, K gg, j

for the al temperature at that time.

K is oMabed from t nfennce j

gg fracture to hness curve, defined in Appendix G to the ASME C e.

The K gg curve is given y the equation:

Kgg = 26.78 +.223 exp (0.0145(T-RTNOT + 160 D (U

s Were K is the refere e stress intensity facto as a function of the metal 4

gg tempurature T and the met nil ductility refer ce temperature RT

Thus, NDT.

the governing equation for t e heatup-cooldo analysis is defined in Appendix G-of the ASME Code as follows:

CKgg + KggiK, (2) g Where K is the ctress'intensi fact caused by membrane (pressure) gg stress.

/

/

K is the stress jntensity factor caus by the themal gradients.

it

/

is provide [by the code as a function of temperature relative K gg to the Ri of the material.

g C = 2.

for level A and B service limits, and C=

.5 for inservice hydrostatic and leak test operat ns.

A any time during the heautp or cooldown transient, Kgg is etermined by the spetal temperature at the tip of the postulated flaw, the approp ate v ue for RTNOT and the reference fractur' toughness curve.

The the al tresses resulting from temperature gr,sents through the vessel wall are FARLEY-UNIT 1 8 3/4 4-11 AMENDMENT NO

alculated sad then the corresponding thermal stress intensity factor, K fo the reference. flaw is computed.

From Equation (2) the pressure str ss inten ity factors are obtained and from these, the allowable pressur are calcula d.

COOLDOWN For the cal latien of the allowable pressure versus oolant temperature during cooldown, t code reference flaw is assumed to e st at the inside of the vessel wall. Du ng cooldown, the controlling loc ion of the flaw is always at the inside o the wall because the thermal

adients produce tensile stresses at the inside, hich increase with increas.ig cooldown rates.

Allowable pressure-temperature rela ons are generated for th steady-state and finite cooldown rate situations.

om these relations omposite limit curves are constructed for each cooldown ate of interest The use of the composite cu in th cooldown analysis is necessary because control of the coolco.n proc u is t'ased on measurement of reactor coolant temperature, whereas the limi pressure is actually dependent on the material temperature at the t of th assumed flaw. During cooldown, the 1/4T vessel location is at a hi her temperat e than the fluid adjacent to the vessel 10. This condition.

~ course, is not ue for the steady-state situation.

It follows that at any giv reactor coolant temp (ature, the delta T developed during cooldown results a' higher value of K at W e 1/4T location for IR finite cooldown rates an for steady-state operation.

Furthermore, if conditions exist su that the increase in K exceeds K the calculated IR gg allowable pressur during cooldown will be greater than the teady-state value.

The ove procedures are needed because there is no direct cont ol on temperaj re at the 1/4T location; therefore, allowable pressures may unkno ingly be violated if the rate of cooling is decreased at various inte als along a cooldown ramp. The use of the composite curve eliminat th problem and assures conservative operation of the system for the enti c oldown period.

REATUP hree separate calculations are required to detemine the limit curve for fin (te heatup rates.

As is done in the cooldown analysis, allowable pressure'teeperature relationships are developed for steady state con tions

/4T as well as 'f(nite heatup rate conditions assuming the presence of a defect at the'inside of the vessel wall. The thermal gradients ring heatup produce compresst(e stresses at the inside of the wall that ap viste the tensile strasses pPoduced by internal pressure. The metal reture at the crack tip legs the c ant temperature; therefore, the K for the 1/4T crack during heatup is lower an the E for the 1/4T crack uring steady-state gg conditions at the same coe nt temperature. During atup, especially at the end of the transient, condit ns may exist such t t the effects of coegressive thennal stresses and different K g's for steady state and finite heatup rat'es do.not offset each other and the assure-teeperature curve based on steady-state conditions no longer represent a1 r bound of all stellar curves for finite heatup rates when trae 1/4T flew ( considered. Therefore, both cases have to be analyzed in order to assu t at any coolant temperature the lower yalue of the allowable pross ire ealcu ted for stea# state and finito heatup rates is obtained.

/

The second portion of the heatup analysis co ras the calculation of pressure temperature 11mit4tions for the case in whi a 1/4T deep outside surface flew is assumed snel inside surface, the thenmal gradientsp/ Unlike the situation at the stablished at the outside surfac during heette produce stresses which are t6hsile in nature and thus tend to ret orce.any pressure stresses present.

hose thereal stresses, of course, are ndent on both the rate of heat and the time (or coolant temperature) ale the heatte ramp.

Furt.he

, since the thereal stresse, at the outside re tens 11e and increate with Ancreasing heatus rate, a lower bound curve canne be defined.

Rather, eac weatup rate of interest must be analyzed on an indiv 1 basis.

Fo1 ing the generation of pressure-temperature curves for be the steady-te and finite heatup rate situations, the final limit cur'tes re produ d as follows. A composite curve is constructed based on a point-poi comparison of the steady state and finite heatup rate data. At any gi en temperature, the allowable pressure is taken to be the lesser of the ree values taken from the curves under consideration.

FARLEY. UNIT 2 33744..j AME.DMENT NO N

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES The ASME approach for calculating the allowable limit curve: for vario hea arj cooldown rates specifies that the total stress intensity facto,

K, fo the combined thermal and pressure stresses at any time during atup g

or cool n cannot be greater than the reference stress intensity fa or, KIR' for the metg1 temperature at that time. K is obtained from the eference IR

-fracture toughness curve, defined in Appendix G to the ASME Cod. The K IR curveisgivenlytheequation:

KIR = 26.78 +

Thus, temperature T and the m6ta il ductility refere e temperature RTNDT.

the governing equation for th heatup-cooldown nalysis is defined in Appendix G of the ASME Code as follows:

ulated and then the corresponding thermal stress intensity factor, K

.ca for e reference flaw is computed.

From Equation (2) the pressure str ss intens factors are obtained and from these, the allowable pressur are calculate COOLDOWN For the calcu tion of the allowable pressure versus colant temperature during cooldown, the Code reference flaw is assumed to ist at the inside of the vessel wall. Dur g cooldown, the controlling loc fon of the flaw is always at the inside o he wall because the thermal radients produce tensile stresses at the inside, ich increase with increas' g cooldown rates. Allowable pressure-temoerature relat ons are generated for th steady-state and finite cooldown rate situations.

Fr a these relations omposite limit curves are

. constructed 'for each cooldown te of interas The use of the composite cury in th /cooldown analysis is necessary ce-cause control of the cooldown proced e s based on meast;rement of reactor coolant temperature, whereas the limi i g pressure is actually dependent on I

the material temperature at the ti of th ssumed flaw.

During cooldown, the 1/4T vessel location is at a hi er temperatore than the fluid adjacent to the vessel 10. This condition, o course,'is not trqe for the steady-state situation.

It follows that at any give reactor coolant tempagature, the delta T developed during cooldown results a higher value of K at' e 1/4T location for gg finite cooldown rates an for s'teady-state operation.

Furthermore, if conditions exist su that the increase in KIR exceeds kit the calculated allowable pressur during cooldown will be greater than the teady-state value.

The ove procedures are needed because there is no direct con el on tempera re at the 1/4T location; therefore, allowable pressures may unknow gly be violated if the rate of cocling is decreased at various inter als along a cooldown ramp.

The use of the composite curve elimina qs thi problem and assures conservative operation of the system for the entiFq c - 1down period.

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM 8ASES Nb HEATUP

/

hree separate calculations are required to determine the limit cur es for fin te heatup rates. As is done in the cooldown analysis, allowa e pressure-mperature relationships are developed for steady-state e ditions as well as f nite heatup rate conditions assuming the presence of a 1/4T defect at the side of the vessel wall. The thermal gradient during heatup produce compress stresses at the inside of the wall that leviate the tensile stresses p duced by internai pressure.

The meta temperature at the crack tip lags the co lant temperature; therefore, the for the 1/4T crack IR during heatup is lower an the K f r the 1/4T cra during steady-state IR conditions at the same co ant temperature. Durin heatur, especially at the end of the transient, condit ns may exist such at the effects of compressive thermal stresses and different R s f r stea -state cnd finite heatup rates do not offset each other and the ressure-te perature curve based on steady-state conditions no longer represen a

wer bound of all similar curves for finite heatup rates when the 1/4T f1a s considered.

Therefore, both cases.

have to be analyzed in order to ass e t at at any coc1 ant temperature the lower value of the allowable pres re cale ated for steady-state and finite heatup rates is obtained.

ThesecondportionofIheheatupanalysisco erns the calculation of f

pressure-temperature li tations for the case in wh ch a 1/4T deep 'outside surface flaw is assume Unlike the situation at th vessel inside surface, the thermal gradients tablished at the outside surfa during heatup produce stresses which are nsile in nature and thus tend to r nforce any pressure stresses present, hese thermal stresses, of course, are ependent on both the rate of heat and the time (or coolant temperature) a ng the heatup ramp. Furthe e, since the thernal stresses, at the outsi are tensile and increase with nereasing heatup rate, a lower bound curve cann t be defined.

Rather. eac eatup rate of interest must be analyzed on an ind idual basis.

Fo1 wing the generation of pressure-temoerature curves for b h the steady tate and finite heatup rate situations, the final limit curv are produ d as follows. A composite curve is constructed based on a poin -by-po comparison of the steady-statt and finite heatup rate data. At a g

n temperature, the allowable pressure is taken to be the lesser of th ree values taken from the curves under consideration.

Peducing T to less than 500*F prevents the release of activity should a ayg steam generator tube rupture since the saturation pressure of the primary coolant is below the lift pressure of the atmospheric steam relief valves.

The surveillance requirements provide adequate assurance that excessive specific activity levels in the primary coolant will be detected in sufficient time to take corrective action.

Information obtained on lodine spiking will be used to assess the parameters associated with spiking phenomena. A reduction in frequency of isotopic analyses following power changes may be permissible if justified by the data obtained.

3/4.4.10 PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE LIMITS The temperature and pressure changes during heatup and cooldown are limited to be consistent with the requirements given in the ASKE Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, Appendix 0 as required per 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix 0.

l 1)

The reactor coolant temperature and pressure and system heatup and cooldown rates (with the exception of the pressurizer) shall be limited in accordance with the PRESSURE TEMPERATURE LIMITS REPORT (PTLR).

l a)

Allowable combinations of pressure and temperature for specific temperature change rates are below and to the right of the limit lines shown in the PTLR. Limit lines for cooldown l

rates between those presented may be obtained by interpolation, b)

The PTLR defines limits to assure prevention of nonductile l

failure only.

For normal operation, other inherent plant characteristics, e.g., pump heat addition and pressuriser heater capacity, may limit the heatup and cooldown rates that can be achieved over c6rtain pressure-temperature ranges.

2)

These limit lines shall be calculated pr eiodically using methods approved by the NRC.

3)

The secondary side of the steam generator must not be pressurized above 200 psig if the temperature of the steam generator is below 70'F.

The pressurieer heatup and cooldown rates shall not exceed 100'F/hr and l

200'F/hr respectively. The spray shall not be used if the temperature difference between the pressuriser and the spray fluid is greater than 320'F.

5) system preservice hydrotests and in-swrvice leak and hydrotests shall be performed at pressures in accordance with the requirements of ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel code, section XI.

I Heatup and cooldown limit curves are calculated using the most limiting value of the nil-ductility reforence temperature, RTndt, at the end of 33.8 effective full power years (EFPY) of service life. The 33.8 EFPY service life period is chosen such that the almiting RTndt at the 1/4T location in the core region is greater than the RTndt of the limiting unitradiated material.

The selection of such a ilmiting RTndt assures that all components in the Reactor Coolant System will be operated conservatively in accordance with applicable code requirements.

determined in accordance with the NRC-approved methodology, may l values of ARTndt be used until the next results from the material surve111. :e program, evaluated according to ASTM E185-82, are available. Capsules will be removed in accordance with the requirements of ASTM Elb5-82 and 10 CFR 50, Appendix H.

The surveillance specimen withdrawal schedule is shown in the PTLA.

The heatup and l cooldown curves must be recalculated when the ARTndt determined from the next sv.rveillance capsule exceeds the calculated 4RTndt for the equivalent capsule radiation exposure.

Allowable pressure-temperature relationships for various heatup and cooldown-rates are calculated using methods derived from Appendix 0 in section XI of l

the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code as required by Appendix 0 to 10 CFR 50 and these methods are discussed in detail in WCAP-14040-NP-A, Revision 2.

l Although the pressuriser operates in temperature ranges above those for which there is reason for concern of non-ductile f ailure, operating limits are provided to assure compatibility of operation with the fatigue analysis performed in accordance with the ASME Code reqvirements.

The OPERABILITY of either RHR relief valve or an RCS vent opening of gteater than or equal to 2.85 square inches ensures that the RCS will be protected from pressure transients which could exceed the limits of Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 when one or more of the RCS cold legs are less than or equal to 310*F.

Either RHR relief valve han adequate relieving capability to protect the RCS from overpressurisation when the transient is 1Laited to either (1) the start of an idle RCP with the secondary water temperature of the steam generator less than or equal to 50'F above the RCS cold leg temperatures provided maakures are taken to cushion the overpressure ef fects at RCS temperatures above 250*F, or (2) the start of all operable charging pumps and their injection into a water solid RCS.

In the case of the injection by the charging pumps, the analysis is based on the start of the maximum number of operable charging pumps allowed by the Technical specifications.

Addition of Technical Specification 6.9.1.15 which provides the reporting requirements e

associated with the PTLR.

Safety Analysis Discussion and Evaluation During the development of the improved standard technical specifications (STS), the NRC staff agreed to allow licensees to relocate the RCS pressure temperature limits from the TSs to a licensee controlled document, provided the parameters for constructing the curves and setpoints were derived using an NRC-approved methodology. Generic Letter (GL) 96-03, Relocation of the Pressure Temperature Limit Curves and Low Temperature Overpressure Protection System Limits, provided guidance to licensees for implementing this line item TS improvement. The guidance contained in GL 95-03 specifically requires licen:ees wishing to implement this line item TS improvement to:

(1) reference a methodology for developing the curves and setpoints that has been approved by the NRC; (2) develop a PTLR or a similar document that contains the figures, values, parameters, and any explanations derived from the methodology; and (3) make appropriate changes to the applicable sections of the Technical Specifications.

Page 3 Safety Assessment The following provides a description of the Farley Unit I and Unit 2 compliance with the requirement: of GL 96-03:

(1) The P-T limits contained in the proposed PTLR are applicable through 21.9 effective full-power years (EFPY) for Unit I and 33.8 EFPY for Unit 2, and were generated in accordance with the methods described in WCAP 14040 NP A, Revision 2, as modified at the direction of the NRC Staff, consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix G, and Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. Additionally, the proposed P-T limits have been adjusted to account for the static and dynamic pressure differential between the reactor vessel beltline and the residual heat removal relief valves (RHRRVs) which provide low temperature

- overpressure protection for the RCS. Specifically, a 25 psi AP correction has been incorporated into the proposed P-T limits at RCS temperatures below 110'F, and a 60 psi AP correction incorporated at RCS temperatures at or above 110F, consistent with the limits on RCP operation contained in Paragraph 2.2 of the PTLR based on the maximum number of allowed operating reactor coolant pumps (RCPs). Incorporation of the AP associated with the number of operating RCPs in the P.T limits and restricting the number of operating RCPs

- at RCS temperatures below 110*F provides additional assurance that the RCS pressure at the reactor vessel beltline will not exceed the limits of Appendix G during an RCS pressure transient.

The NRC haa reviewed the methods described in WCAP 14040 NP A, and approved the topical report by issuance of Safety Evaluation Report (SER) dated October 16,1995. The NRC concluded in its SER that WCAP 14040, Revicion 1, satisfies the provisions described in a draft generic letter published in the Federal Register (60 FR 28805) for public comment on June 2,1995, which was subsequently issued as GL 96-03, January 31,1996. Revision 2 to WCAP 14040 NP-A simply incorporates the Westinghouse Owners Group response to NRC comments on Revision 1; incorporates the NRC SER approving WCAP 14040 NP-A, Revision 1; and adds the suflix NP A to the report number to designate NRC approval of the report.

(2) The proposed PTLRs for Farley Unit I and Farley Unit 2 meet the requirements contained.in GL 96-03 and are included as Enclosure 2 and Enclosure 3 of this submittal, respectively. It should be noted that Farley utilizes the residual heat removal system suction relief valves (RHRRVs) for low-temperature overpressure protection (LTOP) in lieu of a microprocessor-based cold overpressure mitigation system (COMS)in conjunction with the power operated relief valves (PORVs). Consistent with the NRC SER for WCAP-14040-NP-A, Revision 2, and GL 96-03, the LTOP requirements will be retained in the Technical Specifications in their current form and verified to provide adequate protection in accordance with the proposed methodology.

SNC has evaluated the ability of the RHRRVs to provide LTOP based on the proposed P-T limit curves and determined that a dngle RHRRV provides adequate relief capability to i

prevent the RCS pressure from exceeding the 10 CFR 50, Appendix G, steady-state limit during the worst-case heat or mass input transient at RCS temperatures less than or equal to rv-- - -

l Page 4 Safety Assessment 310*F. The worst-case heat input transient is dermed as the start of a single RCP with a temperature difference of 50'F between the primary and secondary side of any one steam generator. The worst-case mass input transient is dermed as the injection of the maximum number of operable charging pumps allowed by the Technical Specifications for a given temperature range into a water solid RCS. The Technical Specifications specifically preclude the start of an RCP with one or more of the RCS cold leg temperatures less than or equal to 310'F unless (1) the pressurizer water volume is less than 77011' or (2) the secondary water

)

temperature of each steam generator is less than 50'F above each of the RCS cold leg temperatures, thus eliminating the potential for a heat input transient more severe than the worst-case heat input transler.t assumed in the LTOP analysis. Additionally, the Technical Specifications specifically limit the number of operable charging pumps to one whenever the temperature of one or more of the RCS colJ legs is less than or equal to 180'F, thus eliminating the potential for a mass input transient more severe than the worst case mass input y

transient assumed in the LTOP analysis.

WCAP-14040 NP-A, Rev. 2, includes the method for determination of the LTOP enable temperature, consistent with Branch Technical Position (BTP) RSB 5 2, which is defined as the water temperature corresponding to a metal temperature of at least RTmn + 90'F. The RTmn+ 90'F values for Farley Units 1 and 2 are 251'F and 276'F, respectively. Based on analysis performed by Westinghouse documented in WCAP-14689, Revision 2, Farley Urits I and 2 lieatup and Cool * 'm Limit Curves for Normal Operation and PTLR Support Documentation, the RCS water temperature that corresponds to a metal temperature of 251*F for Unit I has been conservatively established to be 279*F which bounds all possible cases during heatup and cooldown. The Unit 2 RCS water temperature corresponding to a metal temperature of 276*F has been conservatively established to be 302'F which bounds all possible cases during heatup and cooldown. Therefore, alignment of the RCS to the RHR system at RCS temperatures equal to or less than 310'F, in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 3.4.10 3, meet.5 the criteria set forth in Branch Technical Position RSB 5 2 for the LTOP enable temperature.

As discussed above, the LTOP enable temperature of 310'F is conservative in comparison to the value determined in accordance with WCAP-14040-NP A, Rev. 2. Due to the 8'F margin (minimum) between the proposed LTOP enable temperature and the LTOP enable temperature determined in accordance with the me6 hods of WCAP-14040-NP A, Rev. 2, additional margin for instrument uncenainty associated with the LTOP enable temperature need not be incorporated into the proposed P T limits. Since RCS LTOP is provided by mechanical relief valves, instrument uncertainty associated with the relief valve setpoint is accounted for in the calibration of the RHRRVs (445 i 5 psig); the analysis assumption that that flow does not start until inlet pressure reaches 450 psig + 10% accumulation; and the increased surveillance frequency. This eliminates the need to incorporate additional margin for instrument imcertainty into the proposed P-T limits.

GL 96 03 also requires that licensees address the minimum boltup temperature for the reactor vessel head and closure flange. Consistent with the methods described in WCAP-

E.iclosure 5 Paga5 Safety Assessment 14040 NP-A, Revision 2, the minimum boltup temperature for Farley Unit I and Unit 2 is conservatively established at 70*F as required by paragraph 2.1.1 of the proposed Unit I and Unit 2 PTLRs.

(1) Consistent with the guidance provided in GL 96-03, SNC provides the proposed Technical Specifications changes associated with the PTLR as Enclosure 4 for Farley Unit I and 2. The proposed changes consist of the following:

(a) hiodify TS Defmitions, Section 1.0, to incorporate the dermition for the Pressure Temperature Pressure and Temperature Litnits Report (PTLR).

(b) Modify the requirements of TS 3.4.10.1 to reference the PTLR as the source document for the P-T limits required by TS 3.4.10.1.

(c) hiodify Bases Section 3/4.4.10 to reference the PTLR as the source document for the P T limits required by TS 3.4.10.1, and identify that the methodology to be used to recalculate the P-T limits is NRC approved.

(d) hiisce'laneous changes to TS Bases 3/4.4.10 to remove detail that is either no longer applicable or duplicates the infonnation contained in WCAP-14040 NP A, Revision 2.

Additional clarification to the limiting mass input transient for the reactor coolant system wrs incorporated into TS Bases 3/4.4.10.

(e) hiodify TS Administrative Controls, Section 6.9.1.15, to specify NRC-approved methodology for determining the RCS P T limits required by TS 3.4.10.1.

ENCLOSURE 6 Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Pressure Temperature Limits Report Technical Specification Changes 10 CFR 50.92 Evaluation Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.92, SNC has evaluated the proposed amendments and has determined that operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendments would not involve a significant hazards consideration. The basis for this determinatbn is as follows:

1. The proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

The proposed removal of the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure temperature (P-T) limits from the Technical Specifications (TSs) and relocation to the proposed Pressure Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) in accordance with the guidance provided by Generic Letter (GL) 96-03 is administrative in that the requirements for the P-T limits are unchanged.

The P-T limits proposed for inclusion in the PTLR are based on the fluence associated with 2775 MW thermal power and operation through 21.9 effective full power years (EFPY) for Unit I and 33.8 EFPY for Unit 2. GL 96-03 requires that the P-T limits be generated in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendices G and H, documented in an NRC approved methodology incorporated by reference in the TSs. Accordingly, the proposed curves have been generated using the NRC-approved methods described in WCAP.

14040-NP A, Revi: ion 2, as modified at the direction of the NRC Staff, and meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendices O and H. TS 3.4.10.1 will continue to require that the RCS pressure and temperature be limited in accordance with the limits specified in the PTLR. The NRC-approval document will be specified in TS 6.9.1.15 and NRC approval will be required in the form of a TS Amendment prior to changing the methodology. Use of P-T limit curves generated using the NRC approved methods will provide additional protection for the integrity of the reactor vessel, thereby assuring that the reactor vessel is capable of providing its function as a radiological barrier.

TS 3.4.10.3 for Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP) Unit I and Unit 2 provides the operability requirements for RCS low temperature overpressure protection (LTOP). Specifically, TS 3.4.10.3 requires that two residual heat removal (RHR) system suction reliefvalves (RHRRVs) be operable or that the RCS be vented at RCS cold leg temperatures less than or equal to 3 In'F. Cons: stent with GL 96-03, the Farley Unit I and Unit 2 requirements for LTOP will be retained in TS 3.4.10.3 and will be evaluated in accordance with the proposed methodology.

Based on the above evaluation, the proposed changes are administrative in nature and do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2. The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

As stated above, the proposed changes to remove the RCS P-T limits from the TSs and relocate them to the proposed PTLR is an administrative change. Consistent with the guidance provided by GL 96-03, the proposed P-T limits contained in the proposed PTLR meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendices G and H, and were generated using the NRC-approved methods described in WCAP-14040 NP A, Revision 2, as modified at the direction of the NRC Staff. The proposed changes do not result in a physical change to the plant or add any new or different operating requirements on plant systems, structures, or components with the exception oflimiting the number of operating RCPs at RCS temperatures below 110'F. Limiting the number of operating RCPs below 110*F results in a reduction in the AP between the reactor vessel beltline and the RHRRVs, thereby providing additional margin to limits of Appendix G. Provisions are made to allow the start of a second RCP at temperatures below llo'F in order to secure the pump that was originally cperating without interrupting RCS flow. The LTOP enable temperature exceeds the minimum LTOP enable temperature determined as described in WCAP-14040 NP A, Rev. 2, thereby providing t.dditional assurance that the LTOP system will be available to protect the RCS it' the event of an overpressure transient at RCS temperatures at or below 310'F. Based on the methods contained in WCAP 14040 NP-A, Rev. 2, the minimum boltup temperature for the reactor vessel flange region is conservatively established as 70'F.

As stated in the above response, implementation of the poposed changes do not result in a significant increase in the probability of a new or different accident (i.e., loss of reactor vessel integrity). The RCS P T limits will continue to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendices O and H, and will be generated in accordance with the NRC approved methodology described in WCAP-14040-NP-A, Revision 2, as modified at the direction of the NRC Staff. Therefore, the proposed changes do not result in a significant increase in the possibility of a new or different accident from any previously evaluated.

3. The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The margin of safety is not affected by the removal of the RCS P.T limits from the TSs and relocating them to the proposed PTLR. The RCS P-T limits will continue to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendices G and H. To provide additional assurance that the P-T limits continue to meet the requirements of Appendices G and H, TS 6.9.1.15 will require the use of the NRC-approved methodology to generate P.T limits. The RCS LTOP requirements will be retHned in TS 3,4.10.3 due to use of the RHRRVs for LTOP, consistent with the guidance proviAd by GL 96-03, and will be verified to provide adequate protection of the reactor coolant system against the limits of Appendix G. The LTOP enable temperature exceeds the LTOP enable temperature determined in accordance with the NRC-approved methodology, thus protecting the RCS in the event of a low temperature overpressure transient over a broader range of temperatures than required by WCAP-14040-

Based on the preceding analysis, SNC has determined that removal of the RCS P.T limits from the TS and relocation to the proposed PTLR will not significantly increase the probability or.

consequences of an sccident previously evabated, create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated, or involve a signi6 cant reduction in a margin of safety. SNC therefore concludes that the proposed change meets the requirements of 10 CFR 50,92(c) and does not involve a significant hazards consideration.
