Technical Specification (TS) 3/4.8.1.1 "AC. Sources" Required Action Completion Time to Replace "ED-X-3-B", March 4, 2024 (ADAMS Accession No. ML24064A077)

In Reference 1, NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC (NextEra) requested pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90 and 10 CFR 50.91 (a)(5), an emergency amendment to Renewed Facility Operating License NPF-86 for Seabrook Nuclear Plant Unit 1 (Seabrook). The proposed change would modify on a one-time basis, the Allowed Outage Times (AOTs) associated with Seabrook Technical Specifications (TS) 3/4.8.1, "A.C. Sources -

Operating" for an inoperable offsite power source. The proposed change is necessary to support the timely replacement of the 38 ReseNe Auxiliary Transformer and restoration to operability.

In Reference 2, NextEra requested approval for enforcement discretion from TS 3/4.8.1.1 in accordance with NRC Enforcement Manual, Appendix F, "Notices of Enforcement Discretion." On March 3, 2024, the NRC granted verbal approval of NextEra's enforcement discretion request.

On March 5, 2024, during a clarification call with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff regarding the Reference 1 application, supplemental information was proposed which would clarify the application.

The enclosure to this letter provides NextEra's supplement to the emergency license amendment request.

The information included in this supplement provides additional information that clarifies the application, does not expand the scope of the application, and does not change the no significant hazards consideration determination as submitted in the original application (Reference 1 ).

Should you have any questions regarding this submission, please contact Mr. Kenneth Mack, Licensing Manager at (561) 904-3635.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

Notice of Enforcement Discretion approval In Reference 2, NextEra requested approval for enforcement discretion from TS 3/4.8.1.1 in accordance with NRC Enforcement Manual, Appendix F, "Notices of Enforcement Discretion." On March 3, 2024, the NRC granted verbal approval of NextEra's enforcement discretion request.

Revised TS Action footnotes NextEra is modifying the TS markup pages provided in Reference 1 by modifying the footnotes applicable to TS 3/4.8.1, Actions a.3, c.3, and e.3, to clarify that the requested AOT extensions will expire on March 31 51. The revised footnotes are as provided below and included in the revised TS markup pages provided in the attachment to this supplement.

Action a.3 footnote (revised)

A one-time Allowable Outage Time (AOT) extension for an inoperable offsite circuit allows 30 days to restore the inoperable 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer to OPERABLE status.

Compensatory measures within NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC letter L-2024-032 dated March 4, 2024, shall be implemented and shall remain in effect during the extended AOT period. The one-time AOT extension shall expire upon completion of the maintenance to restore the 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer to OPERABLE status or by 0542 on March 31, 2024, whichever occurs earliest.

Action c.3 footnote (revised)

- A one-time Allowable Outage Time (AOT) extension for an inoperable offsite circuit and diesel generator allows 30 days to restore the inoperable 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer to OPERABLE status. Compensatory measures within NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC letter L-2024-032 dated March 4, 2024, shall be implemented and shall remain in effect during the extended AOT period. The one-time AOTextension shall expire upon completion of the maintenance to restore the 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer to OPERABLE status or by 0542 on March 31, 2024, whichever occurs earliest.

Action e.3 footnote (revised)

A one-time Allowable Outage Time (AOT) extension for two inoperable offsite circuits allows 30 days to restore one inoperable 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer to OPERABLE status. Compensatory measures within NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC letter L-2024-032 dated March 4, 2024, shall be implemented and shall remain in effect during the extended AOT period. The one-time AOT extension shall expire upon completion of the maintenance to restore the 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer to OPERABLE status or by 0542 on March 31, 2024, whichever occurs earliest.

Seabrook Station Docket Nos. 50-443 Supplemental Emergency Power Source (SEPS)

L-2024-035 Enclosure Page 2 of 3 Branch Technical Position (BTP) 8-8, "Onsite (Emergency Diesel Generators) and Offsite Power Sources Allowed Outage Time Extensions," states that the Electrical Engineering Branch (EEB) staff evaluates AOT extension requests for onsite or offsite power sources to allow on-line maintenance on EDGs that would normally be performed during refueling outages or maintenance of offsite power source(s) such as a transformer or bus. The _Seabrook Emergency LAR is concerned with extending the AOT for an offsite circuit due to failure of the 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer.

To clarify, the BTP 8-8 guidance specific to Alternate AC (AAC) sources or supplemental power sources are not applicable to the Reference 1 application beyond demonstrating defense-in-depth to power the emergency AC buses. SEPS is a permanently installed AC source which is verified to be available per Technical Requirement (TR) 31 of the Seabrook Technical Requirements Manual (TRM), which requires an operational readiness status check. The operational readiness status check consists of:

(1) verifying the SEPS is operationally ready for automatic start and energization of the selected emergency bus; (2) verifying 24-hour onsite fuel supply; and (3) verifying alignment to the selected 4160 volt emergency bus and associated 480 volt bus.

Each of the two SEPS Generators has a capacity of 2700 kW per unit, for a combined total of 5400 kW. Therefore, the SEPS Generators have sufficient capacity to power the connected loads. The total fuel consumption required by SEPS to reach 200 degrees Fahrenheit is 8675.8 gallons. Each SEPS generator has a fuel tank containing 6085 gallons for a total of 12170 gallons available storage.

Procedural requirements include a minimum of 4775 gallons of fuel per engine, for a total on hand supply of 9550 gallons. Therefore, sufficient fuel is available to achieve 200 degrees Fahrenheit, even at the minimum allowable fuel level.

Based on the above information, SEPS has the capacity (including the required fuel oil) to bring the unit to cold shutdown in the event of a LOOP concurrent with a failure of EOG A, while EOG B is unavailable.

The SEPS does not automatically connect to either emergency bus during a LOOP. Were an EOG not available during a LOOP event, control room operators would respond using plant procedures to re-energize the emergency bus utilizing SEPS by closing the SEPS feeder breaker from the Main Control Board (MCB) to repower the affected emergency bus. The Emergency Power Sequencer would sequence loads onto the emergency bus. In this scenario, the approximate time to repower the affected emergency buses by SEPS would be 5 - 15 minutes. This task is not an assigned Time Critical Task or a Time Sensitive Task, and timing runs have not been performed for the purpose of establishing an expected response time.

Repair Schedule As of March 5, 2024, below is the repair schedule for the 38 Reserve Auxiliary Transformer. As can be seen, completion is planned by March 21, 2024 at 1400 hours0.0162 days 0.389 hours 0.00231 weeks 5.327e-4 months . Additional time is requested not to exceed March 31, 2024, to support unanticipated challenges including weather, material availability and unforeseen challenges during the repair.
