H. B. Robinson, Unit 2 - Acceptance of License Amendment Request Regarding the Addition of Feedwater Isolation Function to TS 3.3.2 and Removal of Obsolete Content from TS 2.1.1.1 and TS 5.6.5.b (EPID L-2022-LLA-0137)
Dear Mr. Treadway,
By letter dated September 21, 2022 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML22264A149), Duke Energy Progress, LLC (Duke Energy, the licensee), submitted a license amendment request (LAR) for H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 (Robinson). The proposed amendment would add a Feedwater Isolation on High-High Steam Generator Level function to Table 3.3.2-1 of Technical Specification (TS) 3.3.2, Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) Instrumentation, and remove obsolete content from TSs 2.1.1.1, Reactor Core SLs [Safety Limits], and 5.6.5.b, Core Operating Limits Report (COLR).
The purpose of this email is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staffs acceptance review of this LAR. The acceptance review was performed to determine whether the scope and depth of the technical information was sufficient to allow the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review. The acceptance review is also intended to identify within the submittal any readily apparent information insufficiencies in the characterization of the regulatory requirements or the licensing basis of the plant.
Consistent with Section 50.90 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), an application for an amendment to the license (including the technical specifications) must fully describe the changes requested, and following as far as applicable, the form prescribed for original applications. Section 50.34 of 10 CFR addresses the content of technical information required.
The NRC staff has reviewed the Duke Energys submittal and concluded that it did provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed amendment in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. Given the lesser scope and depth of the acceptance review as compared to the detailed technical review, there may be instances in which issues that impact the NRC staffs ability to complete the detailed technical review are identified despite completion of an adequate acceptance review. If additional information is needed, you will be advised by separate correspondence.
Based on the information provided in the Duke Energys submittal, the NRC staff has estimated that this licensing request will take approximately 210 hours0.00243 days <br />0.0583 hours <br />3.472222e-4 weeks <br />7.9905e-5 months <br /> to complete and that the review can be completed within 12 months of acceptance of the LAR (i.e., by October 12, 2023). If there are emergent complexities or challenges in our review that would cause changes to the initial forecasted completion date or significant changes in the forecasted hours, the reasons for the changes, along with the new estimates, will be communicated during routine interactions between Duke Energy and the NRC project manager. These estimates are based on the NRC
staffs initial review of the application and they could change due to several factors, including requests for additional information and unanticipated addition of scope to the review.
