JUL 141986 Docket Nos. 50-282/306 Mr. D. M. Musolf, Manager Nuclear Support Services Northern States Power Company 414 Nicollet Mall Midland Square, 4th Floor Minneapolis, Minnesota 55401
Dear Mr. Musolf:
By letter dated July 1,1986 you informed the NRC of your intention to follow the Northern States Power Company's (NSP's) quality assurance (Q/A) procedures which include assigning NSP's designations to the modified version of the VIPRE-01 code that is used in the refueling analysis for the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Unit Nos. 1 and 2.
Our safety evaluation report issued on May 30, 1986 required you to follow the EPRI Q/A procedures for code modifications such that a consistent configuration would exist in the EPRI developed VIPRE code.
Since you will use NSP's designation in your modified version of VIPRE-01 which is disassociated from the EPRI developed VIPRE-01 code, we find your intention of following your own Q/A procedures acceptable. However, any changes to the VIPRE-01 code that significantly changes the final results will require staff review and approval prior to use in a licensing application.
It would be desirable to add the DNBR limit of 1.17 for the WRB-1 correlation in the NSPNAD 8102 document for the acceptance criterion for each accident to avoid confusion with the DNBR limit of 1.3 for the W-3 correlation. However, since Appendix F of NSPNAD 8102 has clearly identified the DNBR limit of 1.17 for the WRB-1 correlation and you have committed to incorporate this limit to the acceptance criteria in the next revision to NSPNAD-8102 we find Revision 4 to NSPNAD 8102 as presented is acceptable.
Sincerely,
/s/
