Relevant Design Concepts for RPS/ESFAS/NIS

  • The scope of system replacements is rack components

- Existing sensors, actuated components, and cabling remain

- Measurement, voting, and control logic maintained

  • NRC reviewed Tricon V10 controllers

- Used to replace existing Safety Related analog and digital components

- NRC approved Peer-to-Peer communications used for Safety Related display purposes

- NRC approved Safety to Non-safety serial interface used for indication, data acquisition, and monitoring of safety systems

  • Division independence maintained

- Functions performed in same locations

- Diverse Actuation System (DAS) planned for common cause failure (CCF) protection, pending defense in depth and diversity analysis

  • Changes to the main control boards

- Limited Hybrid control board solution

- Existing control board indicators migrated into Safety Related and Non-Safety Related flat panel displays 12 Non-proprietary information suitable for public disclosure

Technical Specification (Tech Spec) Impacts and Surv. Interval Extension and Reduction

  • Utilize Tricons extensive self diagnostics to replace manual periodic surveillances
  • Update to applicable Tech Spec Sections and Bases coordinated with Improved Tech Spec Project
  • Conceptually, no safety function or setpoint changes are anticipated
  • Conversion of Tech Spec Table 4.3-1 and 4.3-2 RPS/ESFAS/NIS Channel Check from Manual (SFCP) to Automatic on a continuous basis
  • Extension of the Tech Spec Table 4.3-1 Channel Operational Test from SFCP to refueling interval 13 Non-proprietary information suitable for public disclosure

LAR Proposed Milestones

  • Pre-submittal Meetings (as early as mid December 2020)
  • LAR submitted for NRC review, 2nd Quarter of 2021
  • NRC approval 1st Quarter of 2023 to support install

- Surveillance reductions may be approved later

  • Turkey Point Unit 3 Spring 2023 outage installation
  • Turkey Point Unit 4 Fall 2023 outage installation 14 Non-proprietary information suitable for public disclosure

ISG-06 Rev. 2, Alternate Review Process(ARP)

  • Use of existing NRC reviews:

- Required NRC approved Tricon platform Topical Report

- NRC Safety Evaluation Report (SER) for a similar upgrade for Diablo Canyon Plant Protection System

  • The NRC ISG-06 ARP is a newly approved process as part of the NRC Modernization Plant (MP#4) that FPL believes:

- reduces licensees projects risks, schedules, and costs through better licensee control of the detail design and implementation phases

- allows for increased efficiency in the NRC review process and resources through reduced documentation supplemented with post LAR inspections

- ensures required and predefined licensees oversight of the project through the Vendor Oversight Plan commitment (i.e., involvement with the vendor activities and support of NRC inspections)

- immediate use of recent lessons learned from the Waterford pilot project to enhance the FPL implementation of the ARP 15 Non-proprietary information suitable for public disclosure

Proposed LAR Content at Submittal ISG-06 Rev. 2 Enclosure B Submittal to include items 1.1 through 1.10 . Notes and list of additional content below.

Human System Interface Change Concepts

  • Consolidation of indicator and status lights into safety video display units (SVDU) and non-safety video display units (VDU)
  • No changes in the method of operation (e.g. manual or automatic actions)
  • Existing Manual Rx trip and ESFAS actuations will be maintained diverse from digital system

Communications with NRC including Electronic Reading Room

  • Several pre-submittal meetings to be planned to discuss full list of topics provided by NRC and included in ISG-06
  • FPL will setup an electronic reading room and document tracking lists similar to what was performed for the Diablo Plant Protection System LAR and subsequent SER
  • FPL will propose bi-weekly telecons with the NRC after the LAR is submitted 19 Non-proprietary information suitable for public disclosure

Potential Future Pre-Submittal Meeting Agenda Items
