Attachment NOC-AE-12002837 Page 1 of 8 SOUTH TEXAS PROJECT UNITS I AND 2 RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
APPLICATION OF AN ALTERNATIVE TO REQUIREMENTS FOR EXAMINATION OF CLASS 1 AND CLASS 2 PIPING WELDS (RELIEF REQUEST RR-ENG-3-04)
- 1. Please state if the augmented inspection program for high energy break exclusion zone piping remain unaffected by the 3 rd Interval risk-informed inservice inspection (RI-ISI) program
Response
The augmented inspection program for the high energy break exclusion zone piping is not affected by the RI-ISI program to be applied during the third interval.
- 2. The NRC issued rulemaking on June 21, 2011 which requires licensees to follow an augmented inservice inspection program in accordance with American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code Case N-770-1, "Alternative Examination Requirements and Acceptance Standards for Class 1 PWR [Pressurized Water Reactors] Piping and Vessel Nozzle Butt Welds Fabricated With UNS N06082 or UNS W86182 Weld Filler Material With or Without Application of Listed Mitigation Activities," and limitations listed in Title 10 of Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
Paragraph 50.55a(g)(6)(ii)(F). In addition, the NRC held a public meeting to discuss the June rulemaking and the implementation of Code Case N-770-1 on July 12, 2011. Agencywide Document Access and Management System (ADAMS)
Accession No. ML112240818 documents the NRC summary of that meeting. Please state how will STP Nuclear Operating Company (STPNOC) address the requirements of the June 2011 rulemaking and ASME Code Case N-770-1 in implementing RR RR-ENG-3-04?
Response
Prior to the approved rulemaking, the STP Inservice Inspection Program was in compliance with MRP-139, "Primary System Piping Butt Weld Inspection and Evaluation Guidelines." The STP Inservice Inspection Program has been augmented by incorporating Code Case N-770-1 consistent with the requirements of the 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(6)(ll)(f)(1) rulemaking. No programmatic changes were required. Only editorial changes were needed to update the STP program to the new standard.
- 3. The original RI-ISI program required inclusion of 10% of the ASME Class 1 piping non-socket welds. Is this requirement met by the 3 rd interval RI-ISI program? Tables 3 and 4 do not identify any piping classes or ASME Section Xl code categories making it impossible for the NRC staff to determine if this requirement was retained.
Please provide details to facilitate NRC staff review.
Response
STP Unit 1 has a Class 1 population of 593 welds: 13 socket welds and 580 butt welds. Of 68 Class 1 welds selected for examination, four are socket welds and 64
Attachment NOC-AE-12002837 Page 2 of 8 are Class 1 butt welds. The 64 Class 1 butt welds are approximately 11% (10.99%)
of the total Class 1 butt weld population of 580.
STP Unit 2 has a Class 1 population of 589 welds: 20 socket welds and 569 butt welds. Of 69 Class 1 welds selected for examination, four are socket welds and 65 are Class 1 butt welds. The 65 Class 1 butt welds are approximately 11 % (11.03%)
of the total Class 1 butt weld population of 569.
Tables 3 and 4 of the September 1, 2011, application provide comparisons between the original and the proposed programs showing changes in weld selection for Units 1 and 2, respectively. The ASME Code classes for the various systems listed are provided in Table 1 (Unit 1) and Table 2 (Unit 2) of the September application.
Tables 1 and 2 are reproduced here as an attachment for clarity.
- 4. Starting on the bottom of Page 1 of the attachment to your September 1, 2011 submittal, there is a discussion of how review of the program led to the following changes and discusses 1) a change in the exemption size for auxiliary feedwater piping from the 1989 code to the 2004 code, 2) revised Probabilistic Risk Assessment Licensing Branch (PRA) model and 3) repair/replacement activities which modified the piping arrangements. In reviewing Tables 3 and 4, the NRC staff noted a significant change in the number of welds from the original program to the 3 rd interval RI-ISI program. Please modify Tables 3 and 4 to indicate the reason for the change in the number of welds (e.g. code change, revised PRA, repair/replacement, etc.) to facilitate NRC review of the 3 rd interval RI-ISI program.
Response
The original program consisted of two separate programs, one per Code Case N-560, and one per Code Case N-578. New Tables were developed showing this breakdown compared to the revised Interval 3 program and are attached as replacement Tables 3 and 4. Where there has been a significant change in the weld population during the Third Interval, the change is in response to one of the following as noted in the revised tables:
" During the intervening years between ASME Section Xl, 1989 Edition, applicable during the second interval, and the 2004 Edition, the exemption size of Class 2 auxiliary feedwater piping changed. Per IWC-1222, the exemption size for Class 2 auxiliary feedwater piping decreased from 4 NPS to 1-1/2 NPS. Lines are now included in the RI-ISI program that were previously exempt.
- Welds were added to the ISI program due to replacement of Unit 1 Steam Generators at the end of the first interval and the Unit 2 Steam Generators at the start of the second interval.
- The new consequence rankings for consequence segments 1(2)-CVCS-6, 1(2)-RCS-27, 1(2)-SIS-01a and 1(2)-SIS-01c are incorporated into the Risk Ranking, Element Selection, and Risk Impact Analysis.
" The re-analysis for Interval 3, determined an additional reactor coolant system (RCS) weld is susceptible to thermal stratification, cycling, and striping (TASCS).

- 5. STP Nuclear Operating Company provided justification for probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) quality by referencing a previous NRC approved risk informed application. Since PRA quality is determined sufficient commensurate with each application, please provide the NRC staff validation that those supporting requirements important to this application are addressed in the PRA. Additional information can be found in NRC safety evaluation (Adams Accession No. ML 1262A206) which references Electric Power Research Institute Technical Report 1021467.
RESPONSE
The STP risk-informed inservice inspection (RI-ISI) program is written in compliance with EPRI 1021467, "Nondestructive Evaluation: Probabilistic Risk Assessment Technical Adequacy Guidance for Risk-Informed In-Service Inspection Programs."
The STP PRA was determined by the NRC to be Category 2 for internal events and in compliance with the high level requirements for fires and external events. The NRC staff has reviewed EPRI TR 1021467 and concluded that the TR provides reasonable assurance that the PRA meets supporting requirements necessary for development of an RI-ISI program.
Table 2-1 of EPRI 1021467 provides a summary of supporting requirements by capability category. Supporting requirements are identified for the following elements:
IE - Initiating Event Analysis AS - Accident Sequence Development Analysis SC - Success Criteria SY - Systems Analysis HR - Human Reliability Analysis DA - Data Analysis IF - Internal Flood QU - Quantification LE - LERF Analysis Potential quantitative insights from analysis of other hazard groups would not impact conclusions with respect to acceptance criteria. This approach is consistent with risk-informed decision-making as described in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.174, "An Approach for Using Probabilistic Risk Assessment in Risk-Informed Decisions on Plant-Specific Changes to the Licensing Basis." Because of this and the guidance in EPRI 1021467, the STP PRA is of sufficient quality for this application.
