QUAD CITIES NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 -

REGULATORY AUDIT IN SUPPORT OF LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUESTS TO ADOPT TSTF-505, REVISION 2, PROVIDE RISK-INFORMED EXTENDED COMPLETION TIMES - RITSTF INITIATIVE 4B, AND 10 CFR 50.69, RISK-INFORMED CATEGORIZATION AND TREATMENT OF STRUCTURES, SYSTEMS AND COMPONENTS FOR NUCLEAR POWER REACTORS, (EPID L-2023-LLA-0084 AND EPID L-2023-LLA-0085)

Dear Mr. Rhoades:

By letters dated June 8, 2023, Constellation Energy Generation, LLC (the licensee) submitted license amendment requests (LARs) to amend the licenses for Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2, Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-29 and DPR-30, respectively. The proposed LARs would adopt Technical Specifications Task Force (TSTF)Traveler TSTF-505, Revision 2, Provide Risk-informed Extended Completion Times, RITSTF [Risk-informed Technical Specifications Task Force] Initiative 4b and adopt the provisions of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), section 50.69, Risk-informed categorization and treatment of structures, systems and components for nuclear power reactors.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has identified the need for a regulatory audit to examine the licensees non-docketed information with the intent to gain understanding, to verify information, or to identify information that will require docketing to support the basis of the licensing or regulatory decision.

The NRC staff will conduct the audit virtually via Teams using a licensee-established electronic portal available to NRC staff from the date of this letter through March 31, 2024, with formal audit meetings to be scheduled during this period, as needed. The detailed audit plan is enclosed with this letter.

REGULATORY AUDIT PLAN BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION TO SUPPORT THE REVIEW OF LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUESTS TO ADOPT RISK INFORMED COMPLETION TIMES - TSTF-505 AND 10 CFR 50.69 RISK-INFORMED CATEGORIZATION OF SSCs CONSTELLATION ENERGY, LLC QUAD CITIES NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-254 AND 50-265

1.0 BACKGROUND

By letters dated June 8, 2023 (Constellation Energy Generation, LLC (the licensee) submitted license amendment requests (LARs) for Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station (Quad Cities),

Units 1 and 2. The proposed LARs (Agencywide Documents and Access Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML23159A249 and ML23159A253) requested to modify the Quad Cities technical specifications (TSs) to permit the use of risk-informed completion times (RICTs) in accordance with Technical Specifications Task Force (TSTF)-505, Revision 2, Provide Risk-Informed Extended Completion Times - RITSTF Initiative 4b (ML18183A493). and proposed the addition of a license condition that allows implementation of the provisions in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), section 50.69, Risk-Informed Categorization and Treatment of Structures, Systems and Components for Nuclear Power Reactors.

The staff from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRCs) Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) has initiated its review of the LARs in accordance with NRR Office Instruction LIC-101, License Amendment Review Procedures (ML19248C539).

2.0 REGULATORY AUDIT BASES A regulatory audit is a planned license, or regulation-related activity, that includes the examination and evaluation of the licensees non-docketed information that provides the technical basis for the LAR. An audit is conducted to gain understanding, to verify information, and to identify information that will require docketing to support the basis of a licensing or regulatory decision. An audit will assist the NRC staff in efficiently conducting its review and gaining insights to the licensees processes and procedures. Information that the NRC staff Enclosure 1

relies upon to make the safety determination must be submitted on the docket. This audit will be conducted in accordance with NRR LIC-111, Regulatory Audits (ML19226A274), with exceptions noted within this audit plan.

The NRC staff will perform the audit to support its evaluation of whether the licensees requests can be approved per 10 CFR 50.90, Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit. The staffs review will be informed by Standard Review Plan, section 19.2, Review of Risk Information Used to Support Permanent Plant-Specific Changes to the Licensing Basis (ML071700658). The audit will assist the NRC staff with understanding the licensees proposed programs for implementing RICTs for certain TSs and categorizing structures systems and components (SSCs) based on their risk significance. Further, due to the overlaps in technical matter and personnel reviewing the two LARs, the NRC staff determined that a combined audit would permit the most efficient use of resources for the NRC and the licensee.

3.0 SCOPE The audit team will view the documentation and calculations that provide the technical support for the LARs. The scope of the NRC staffs audit will focus on the following subjects:

Understand how the licensees proposed program conforms to NRC-endorsed guidance in the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) report NEI 06-09, Revision 0-A, Risk-Informed Technical Specification Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specification Guidelines (ML122860402).

Understand how the licensees proposed program conforms to NRC-endorsed guidance in NEI 00-04, Revision 0, SSC Categorization Guideline (ML052910035), as endorsed by Regulatory Guide 1.201, Revision 1, Guidelines for Categorizing Structures, Systems, and Components in Nuclear Power Plants According to Their Safety Significance (ML061090627).

Gain a better understanding of the detailed calculations, analyses, and bases underlying the LARs and confirm the staffs understanding of the LARs.

Gain a better understanding of plant design features and their implications for the LARs.

Identify any information needed to enable the staffs evaluation of the technical acceptability of the probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) used for these applications.

Identify any information needed to enable the staffs evaluation of whether the proposed changes challenge design-basis functions or adversely affect the capability or capacity of plant equipment to perform design-basis functions.

Identify questions and requests that may become formal requests for additional information (RAIs) per NRR Office Instruction LIC-115, Processing Requests for Additional Information (ML21141A238).

The NRC staff will audit the PRA methods that the licensee would use to: (1) categorize SSCs based on their risk significance, and (2) determine the risk impact from which the revised completion times for TSTF-505 would be obtained. This will include the licensees assessment

of internal events (including internal flooding) and fire as well as the treatment of uncertainties and evaluation of defense in depth. The NRC will also audit the licensees quantification of risk from significant external events whether the licensee uses PRA or bounding methods. In addition, the audit team will discuss these topics with the licensees subject matter experts.

4.0 INFORMATION AND OTHER MATERIAL NECESSARY FOR THE REGULATORY AUDIT The NRC staff will request information and interviews throughout the audit period. The NRC staff will use an audit items list to identify the information to be audited (e.g., methodology, process information, and calculations) and the subjects of requested interviews and meetings.

The NRC staff requests the licensee to have the information referenced in the attachment of this audit plan available and accessible for the NRC staffs review via a web-based electronic portal within 2 weeks of the date of this audit plan. The NRC staff requests that any supplemental information requested be available and accessible for the NRC staffs review within 1 week of the date of the NRCs notification to the licensee of the new requests. The NRC staff requests the licensee to notify the review team when an audit item is added to its electronic portal by sending an email to the NRC licensing project manager.

The NRC staff acknowledges and will observe appropriate handling and protection of proprietary information made available for the audit. Any information accessed through the licensees portal will not be held or retained in any way by NRC staff.

Audit Questions STSB-1 In Attachment 2 of the LAR, the proposed change to add RICTs for Quad Cities TSs Required Action 3.3.5.1.F.2 (place channel in trip) is, in part:

96 hours0.00111 days <br />0.0267 hours <br />1.587302e-4 weeks <br />3.6528e-5 months <br /> from discovery of inoperable channel concurrent with HPCI

[high-pressure coolant injection] or reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) inoperable OR In accordance with the Risk-Informed Completion Time Program The NRC staff recognizes that the licensees proposed change is consistent with the NUREG-1433 Standard Technical Specifications General Electric BWR/4 Plants, Revision 4 (ML21272A358) TS markups in TSTF-505, Revision 2. However, it has been brought to staffs attention that some of the TSTF-505 markups contain errors, introducing potential for licensee actions to be less conservative than the original intent of the requirements. To modify completion times that include the phrase from discovery, the RICT shall start at discovery instead of the time the TS action statement is entered, or the normal time zero. The requirement is not clear when the RICT statement is separated from the from discovery statement.

To provide clarity, revise the placement of the proposed completion time for TS Required Action 3.3.5.1.F.2 between 96 hours0.00111 days <br />0.0267 hours <br />1.587302e-4 weeks <br />3.6528e-5 months <br /> and from discovery or discuss how the proposed change ensures that the time of entry for the condition as at from discovery is clear. Also, provide a similar change of discussion for proposed change for Required Action 3.3.5.1.G.2, which is formatted similarly.

STSB-2 In TSTF-505, Revision 2, TS Example 1.3-8 appears to contain a typographical error.

Assess whether the reference in the first paragraph to Condition C should be revised to Condition B.

STSB-3 Discuss why the following Required Actions have a proposed note that excludes loss of function (LOF) conditions for the RICT program when the associated LCO has a separate TS condition that addresses a LOF condition? (This question is seeking to understand, not necessarily to revise, the proposed TS.)

a. RA 3.3.2.2.A.1 (TS 3.3.2.2 Condition B addresses LOF)
b. RA 3.3.4.1.A.1 and A.2 (TS 3.3.4.1 Conditions B and C address LOF)
c. RA 3.3.6.1.A.1 (TS 3.3.6.1 Condition B addresses LOF)
d. RA 3.8.7.A.1 (TS 3.8.7 Condition E addresses LOF)

STSB-4 For TS Required Action 3.8.4.B.2, the current completion time is [p]rior to exceeding 7 cumulative days per operating cycle of battery inoperability, on a per battery basis, as a result of maintenance or testing. The frontstop 7 cumulative days is not fixed like all described in TSTF-505, Revision 2; it is variable depending on how many days have been used during the operating cycle for an inoperable battery. Applying a RICT to this required action is also inconsistent with the guidance in NEI 06-09-A that does not mention variable frontstop completion times.

Remove this proposed change or provide justification for the following questions:

a. How would the variable frontstop be evaluated to begin calculating a RICT?
1. Provide an example where more than 1 day but less than 7 days has been applied to an inoperable battery in the operating cycle.
2. Provide an example of what would happen when TS 3.8.4 Condition B is applicable and the 7-day threshold has already been exceeded (e.g., RICT was used one time and exited during the same operating cycle)?
b. Are there ever emergent maintenance and testing scenarios that would apply to TS 3.8.4 Condition B? If so, would a RICT be applied after the 7-day threshold were exceeded and what frontstop value would be selected?

STSB-5 The proposed administrative controls for the RICT program in TS 5.5.15 paragraph e of of the LAR was based on the TS markups of TSTF-505, Revision 2, for Quad Cities, Units 1 and 2. The NRC staff recognizes that the model safety evaluation (SE) for TSTF-505, Revision 2, contains improved phrasing for the administrative controls for the RICT program in TS 5.5.15 paragraph e, namely the phrasing approved for use with this program instead of used to support this license amendment. In lieu of the original phrasing in TS 5.5.15 paragraph e, discuss whether the phrases methods used to support Amendment # xxx or, as discussed in the TSTF-505 model SE, methods approved for use with this program would provide more clarity for this paragraph.

EEEB-1 According to the Quad Cities Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, chapter 8, page 8.3-9, the plant has three emergency diesel generators (EDGs), one dedicated to each unit, and a common which is automatically connected to the unit in which loss of offsite power (LOOP) and loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) occurs. Considering this arrangement, explain whether the plant (both units) can be safely shutdown in the following scenarios: LOOP for both units, a LOCA on a unit, and a single failure of EDG on another unit. If not, please explain the single-failure criteria as applied to the two units. This clarification will help understand/verify the Design Success Criteria considered in table E-1 of the LAR.

EEEB-2 According to LAR, table E1-1, corresponding to TS Condition 3.8.1.B One required DG inoperable, the design success criteria require Two of out of three DGs, whereas the PRA success criteria require One out of three DGs. Explain the reason for this difference.

EEEB-3 Explain the single-failure criteria considered for the safety-related 250 VDC and 125 VDC systems as applied to the two units.

EEEB-4 In the LAR, corresponding to TS Conditions 3.8.7.A, One or more AC electrical power distribution subsystems inoperable the proposed RICT program has a NOTE stating: Only applicable when a loss of function has not occurred. Explain why a similar NOTE is not proposed for the TS Condition 3.8.7.B, One or more DC [direct current] electrical power distribution subsystems inoperable and TS Condition 3.8.7.C, One or more required opposite unit AC or DC electrical power distribution subsystems inoperable.

EEEB-5 According to the LAR, table E1-1, corresponding to the TS Condition 3.8.1.C Two required offsite circuits inoperable, the design success criteria require Two required offsite circuits.

Explain how the design success criteria will be met with Two required offsite circuits inoperable.

EEEB-6 According to the LAR, table E1-1, the TS Condition 3.8.1.D states One required offsite circuit inoperable OR one required DG inoperable. Please confirm that the TS Condition 3.8.1.D in table E1-1 was meant to state One required offsite circuit inoperable AND one required DG inoperable. Also, according to the table E1-1, for the design success require Two required sources. Explain the two required sources.
