Enclosure NOC-AE-16003412 Page 2 of 4 APLA-4-4 Please provide values of total risk estimates (also including water hammer and seism ically induced LOCA) for the plant expressed as core damage frequency (CDF) and large early release frequency (LERF). Those values are not available in the recent Rovero analysis (Reference 2). Th is information is needed to compare pairs {CDF, ~CDF} and {LERF,

~LERF} to risk acceptance guidelines in RG 1.174.

STPNOC Response STPNOC provided the following response to this RAI in NOC-AE-16003390 (ML16230A232):

Water hammer events are screened from consideration due to system and component design as described previously in the response to APLA-4-3.

Therefore , water hammer is assessed to result negligible increase in risk.

Seism ically-induced LOCA risk estimates are provided in the response to RAI APLA-4-2 , above . CDF and LERF from seismically-induced LOCA are found to be insig nificant to the assessment.

STPNOC is revising the response to this RAI by adding the following information:

The STP PRA is a full-scope , at-power, integrated Level 1 and Level 2 PRA that applies to both STP Unit 1 and Unit 2. STP's PRA includes internal and external events as well as features such as a seismic PRA, a fire PRA (including spatial interactions analysis), human rel iability analysis , and detailed common cause modeling . The Level 1 and Level 2 results for the current PRA model of record (STP_REV81) are presented in the table below.
