Proposed Technical Specification Change (License Amendment)-
Safety Limit-Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR)
Pursuant to 10CFR50.90, Detroit Edison hereby proposes to amend the Fermi 2 Plant Operating License NPF-43, Appendix A, Technical Specifications (TS), by l modifying Technical Specification Section 2.1.2. This application proposes to l
change the Minimum Critical Power Ratio Safety Limits (SLMCPRs) in Technical Specification (TS) 2.1.2 to reflect results of a cycle-specific calculation performed l for Fermi 2 operating Cycle 7, and to update the footnote associated with the
! SLMCPR values to limit the applicability of the SLMCPR walues to only Cycle 7 operation.
Enclosure 1 provides a description and evaluation of the proposed TS change.
Enclosure 2 provides an analysis of the issue of significant hazards consideration l using the standards of 10CFR50.92. Enclosure 3 provides the marked up pages of the existing TS to show the proposed change and a typed version of the affected TS l pages with the proposed changes incorporated. The General Electric Nuclear Energy i (GENE) document provided as Attachment 1 contains additional information regarding the Cycle 7 SLMCPR analysis, including a comparison of the Fermi 2 Cycle 7 SLMCPR to the generic gel 1 SLMCPR. Some of the infonnation l contained in the document is considered GE proprietary information and should be withheld from public disclosure in accordance with 10CFR9.17(a)(4) and
( 10CFR2.790(a)(4). An affidavit attesting to this fact is provided as Attachment 2. A l
non-proprietary version of the GE document is provided as Attachment 3.

USNRC NRC-98-0067 Page 2 Detroit Edison has reviewed the proposed TS changes against the criteria of 10CFR51.22 for environmental considerations. The proposed changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration, nor significantly change the types or significantly increase the amounts of effluents that may be released offsite, nor significantly increase individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposures.
Based on the foregoing, Detroit Edison concludes that the proposed TS changes meet the criteria provided in 10CFR51.22(c) (9) for a categorical exclusion from the requirements for an Environmental Impact Statement or an Environmental Assessment.
Based on the refueling outage schedule, Detroit Edison requests issuance of the proposed license amendment by September 14,1998. In order to allow time for procedure revision and orderly incorporation into copies of the Technical Specifications, Detroit Edison requests that the proposed license amendment, once approved by the NRC, be issued with a requirement for implementation prior to startup of Fermi 2 following Refueling Outage 6.

Affidavit The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the reasons set forth in both paragraphs (4)a. and (4)b., above.
(.,, ..s information sought to be withheld is being submitted to NRC in confidence. The information is of a sort customarily held in confidence by GE, and is in fact so held. Its initial designation as proprietary information, and the subsequent steps taken to prevent its unauthorized disclosure, are as set forth in (6) and (7) folicwing. The information sought to be withheld has, to the best of my knowledge and belief, consistently been held in confidence by GE, no public disclosure has been made, and it is not available in public sources. All disclosures to third parties including any required transmittals to NRC, have been made, or must be made, pursuant to regulatory provisions or proprietary agreements which provije for maintenance of the information in confidence.
(6) Initial approval of proprietary treatment of a document is made by the manager of the originating component, the person most likely to be acquainted with the value and sensitiv;ity of the information in relation to industry knowledge. Access to such documents within GE is limited on a "need to know" basis. J
' (7) He procedure for approval of external release of such a document typically requires review by the staff manager, project manager, principal scientist or other equivalent authority, by the manager of the cognizant marketing function (or his delegate), and by the Legal Operation, for technical content, competitive effect, and determination of the accuracy of the proprietary designation. Disclosures outside GE are limited to regulatory bodies, customers, and potentiai customers, and their agents, suppliers, and licensces, and others with a legitimate need for the information, and then only in accordance with appropriate regulatory provisions or proprietary I agreements.
(8) The information identified in paragraph (2) is classified as proprietary because it contains details of GE's Safety Limit analysis and the corresponding results which GE has applied to actual core designs with GE's fuel.
- De development of the methods used in these analysis, along with the testing, development and approval of the supporting critical power correlation was achieved at a significant cost, on the order of several million dollars, to GE.
(9) Public disclosure of the information sought to be withheld is likely to cause substantial harm to j GE's, competitive position and foieclose or reduce the availability of profit-making opportunities. The stability analysis is part of GE's comprehensive BWR safety and tect nology base, and its commercial value extends beyond the originC development cost. The value of the i technology base goes beyond the extensive physical database and analytical methodology and I includes development of the expertise to determine and apply the appropriate evaluation !
process. In addition, the technology base inc!udes the value derivea from providing analyses
]
done with NRC-approved methods.
The research, development, engineering, analytical, and FRC review costs comprise a ;
substantial investment of time and money by GE.
The precise value o' the expertise to devise an evaluation process and apply the correct I analytica! methodology is difficult to quantify, but it clearly is substantial.
- GE's competitive advantage will be lost ifits competitors are able to use the resuhs of the GE experience to normalize or verify their own process er if they are able to claim en equivalent understanding by demonstrating that they can arrive at the saue or similar conclusions.

. Affidavit The value of this information to GE would be lost if the information were disclosed to the public. Making such information available to competitors without their having been required to undertake a similar expendir.ure of resources would unfairly provide competitors with a windfall, and deprive CE of the opportunity to exercise its cernpetitive advantage to seek an adequate retuni on its large investmeat in developing these very valuable analytical tools.

THE PROPOSED CHANGE (S)
DESCRIPTION:
The proposed change involves revising the SLMCPR values specified in Detroit Edison Fermi 2 TS Section 2.1.2 for two recirculation loop operation from 1.09 to 1.11 and for single loop operation from 1.11 to 1.13, and update the associated footnote which limits the applicability of the values to Cycle 7 operation only.
On November 5,1996, the NRC approved Amendment No.109 to the Facility Operating License for the Fermi 2 facility. This amendment revised the SLMCPR values specified in TS Section 2.1.2 from 1.07 to 1.09 for two recirculation loop operation and from 1.08 to 1.11 for single loop operation based upon a plant / cycle specific analysis performed by General Electric assuming a mixed core of gel 1, GE9B, and GE6 fuel which was loaded for Fermi.2 Cycle 6. Because the new SLMCPR values were based upon a cycle specific analysis for Fermi 2 Cycle 6, the approval of the new SLMCPR values was limited to Cycle 6 operation by inclusion of a footnote to the SLMCPR value.
Prior to 1996, General Electric Report NEDE-24011-P-A-11, " General Electric Standard Application for Reactor Fuel (GESTAR II)" stipulated that the SLMCPR for a new fuel design be performed for a large, high power density plant assuming a bounding equilibrium reactor core. The generic SLMCPR for the gel 1 fuel type was determined, according to this specification, and found to be 1.07. In March 1996 it was discovered that the SLMCPR calculated on a generic basis with the GE methodology may be non-conservative when applied to some actual core and fuel designs This was the subject of a 10 CFR Part 21 notification for General Electric dated May 24,1996. Plant / cycle specific SLMCPR analyses now are used to confirm the calculated SLMCPR value on a plant / cycle-specific basis using the uncertainties defined in NEDE-31152-P, Revision 6," General Electric Fuel Bundle Designs."
General Electric's calculation of the plant-specific SLMCPR values for Fermi 2 Cycle 7 was performed based upon NRC approved methods (General Electric Standard Application for Reactor Fuel, NEDE-24011-P-A-13 and U. S. Supplement NEDE-24011-P-A-13-US, August 1996) and interim implementing procedures which have been discussed between General Electric Nuclear Energy (GENE) and
- the NRC during their meetings with the NRr staff on April 17,1996 and May 6 l through 10,1996. The implementing procedures are identical to those used for similar recent analyses (Dockets 50-341,50-324,50-325,50-298,50-277, et al3 and
( are described in GENE's proposed Amendment 25 to GESTAR II (R. J. Reda (GE) l to T. E. Collins (NRC), Proposed Amendment 25 to GE Licensing Topical Report NEDE-24011-P-A (GESTAR II) on Cycle-Specific MCPR, December 13,1996).
Enciosure 1 to NRC-98-0067 Page 3 This calculation resulted in a calculated Cycle 7 SLMCPR value of 1.11 for two recirculation loop operation and 1.13 for single loop operation. The General Electric document provided as Attachment I contains additional information regarding the j Cycle 7 SLMCPR analysis, including a comparison of the Fermi 2 Cycle 7 SLMCPR l
to the generic gel 1 SLMCPR. Some of the information contained in the document is considered GE propr:etary information and should be withheld from public disclosure in accordance with 10 CFR 9.17(a)(4) and 10 CFR 2.790(a)(4). An affidavit attesting to this fact is provided as Attachment 2. A non-proprietary version of the GE document is provided as Attachment 3.
Until the NRC approves GE Report NEDE-24011-P-A(GESTAR II)," General Electric Standard Application for Reactor Fuel (GESTAR II)", Amendment 25, the proposed SLMCPR values should be limited to Cycle 7. To accommodate this, the footnote to TS 2.1.2 is being updated to limit the applicability of the SLlV"PR values to only Cycle 7 operation.
Therefore, Detroit Edison proposes that tne Fermi 2 Plant TS Section 2.1.2 be revised to rerect the change in the SLMCPRs and to update the associated footnote.
EVALCATION OF THE PROPOSED CIIANGE(S):
The proposed TS change will revise the Technical Specifications to reflect the change in the SLMCPRs due to the plant specific evaluation performed by GENE for rermi 2, Cycle 7. The new SLMCPRs were calculated using NRC approved methods (General Electric Standard Application for Reactor Fuel, NEDE-24011-P-A-13 and U. S. Supplement NEDE-24011-P-A-13-US, August 1996) and technical design procedures as discussed during GENE meetings with the NRC on April 17, 1996 and May 6 through 10,1996.
The Fuel Cladding Integrity Saf-ty Limit is set such that no mechanistic fuel damage is calculated to occur if the limit is not violated. Since the parameters which result in fuel damage are not directly observable during reactor operation, the thermal and hydraulic conditions resulting in a departure from nucleate boiling have been used to mark the beginning of the region where fuel damage could occur. Although it is recognized that a departure from nudeate boiling would not necessarily result in damage to BWR fuel rods, the critical power at which boiling transition is calculated to occur had been adopted as a convenient limit. However, the uncertainties in monitoring the core operating state md in the procedmes used to calculate the critical power result in an uncertainty in the value of the critical power. Therefore, the Fuel Cladding Integrity Safety Limit is defined as the CPR in the limiting fuel assembly for which more than 99.9% of the fuel rods in the core are expected to avoid boiling transition considering the power distribution within the core and all uncertainties.
The new SLMCPRs for Fermi 2 Cycle 7 were calculated to be 1.11 and 1.13 (single loop operation).

10CFR50.92 SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION BASIS FOR SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS DETERMINATION l
l In accordance with 10CFR50.92, Detroit Edison has made a determination that the proposed amendment involves no significant hazards consideration. The proposed Technical Specification (TS) changes described above do not involve a significant hazards consideration for the following reasons:

t The proposed license amendment establishes a revised SLMCPR value of 1.11 for two recirculation loop operation and 1.13 for single recirculation loop operation for use during Cycle 7 operation. The derivation of the cycle-specific SLMCPRs was performed using '-General Electric Standard Application for Reactor Fuel," NEDE-24011-P-A-13; U. S. Supplement, NEDE-24011-P-A US, August 1996; and the " Proposed Amendment 25 to GE Licensing Topical Report NEDE-24011-P-A (GESTAR II) on Cycle Specific Safety Limit MCPR."
Amendment 25 was submitted by General Electric Nuclear Energy (GENE) to the NRC on December 13,1996.
The probability of an evaluated accident is derived from the probabilities of the individual precursors to that accident. The consequences of an evaluated accident are determined by the operability of plant systems designed to mitigate those consequences. Limits have been established, consistent with NRC approved methods, to ensure that fuel performance during normal, transient, and accident conditions is acceptable.
The probability of an evaluated accident is not increased by revising the SLMCPR values. The change does not require any physical plant modifications or physically affect any plant components. Therefore, no individual precursors of an accident are affected.
The proposed license amendment establishes a revised SLMCPR that ensures that the fuel is protected during normal operation and during any plant transients or anticipated operational occurrences. Specifically, the reload analysis
! demonstrates that a SLMCPR value of 1.11 (1.13 for single loop operation) l ensures that less than 0.1 percent of the fuel rods will experience boiling transition during any plant operation if the limit is not violated.
