S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 1.0 Purpose and Objective Following the accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant resulting from the March 11, 2011 , Great Tohoku Earthquake and subsequent tsunami , the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRG) established a Near Term Task Force (NTTF) to conduct a systematic review of NRG processes and regulations and to determine if the agency should make additional improvements to its regulatory system. The NTTF developed a set of recommendations intended to clarify and strengthen the regulatory framework for protection against natural phenomena . Subsequently, the NRG issued a 50 .54(f) letter on March 12, 2012 [1 ], requesting information to assure that these recommendations are addressed by all U.S. nuclear power plants. The 50.54(f) letter requests that licensees and holders of construction permits under 10 CFR Part 50 reevaluate the seismic hazards at their sites against present-day NRG requirements and guidance. Depending on the comparison between the reevaluated seismic hazard and the current design basis, further risk assessment may be required . Assessment approaches acceptable to the staff include a seismic probabilistic risk assessment (SPRA) , or a seismic margin assessment (SMA). Based upon the assessment results, the NRG staff will determine whether additional regulatory actions are necessary.

This report describes the Expedited Seismic Evaluation Process (ESEP) undertaken for Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1. The intent of the ESEP is to perform an interim action in response to the NRC's 50 .54(f) letter [1] to demonstrate seismic margin through a review of a subset of the plant equipment that can be relied upon to protect the reactor core following beyond design basis seismic events .

The ESEP is implemented using the methodologies in the NRG endorsed guidance in EPRI 3002000704 , Seismic Evaluation Guidance: Augmented Approach for the Resolution of Fukushima Near-Term Task Force Recommendation 2.1 : Seismic [2] . Note that the TMl-1 ESEP is based on the TMl-1 FLEX strategy as of October 9, 2014, and the TMl- 1 FLEX strategy will be implemented in November 2015.

The objective of this report is to provide summary information describing the ESEP evaluations and results for TMl-1 . The level of detail provided in this report is intended to enable the NRG to understand the inputs used, the evaluations performed , and the decisions made as a result of the interim evaluations for TMl-1.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 2.0 Brief Summary of the FLEX Seismic Implementation Strategies The TMl-1 FLEX strategies for Reactor Core Cooling and Heat Removal, Reactor Inventory Control/Long-term Sub-criticality and Containment Functions are summarized below. This strategy is described in Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) in Response to the March 12, 2012, Commission Order EA-12-049, including 6 month FLEX updates through August 2014 [3].

FLEX Phase 1, first four hours, strategy relies on installed plant equipment. Reactor Coolant System Inventory control relies upon low leakage RCP seals and stabilizing RCS temperature to ensure adequate inventory to support single phase natural circulation . Reactor core cooling and heat removal is achieved via steam release from the Once Through Steam Generators (OTSG) using the Atmospheric Dump Valves (MS-V-4A&B). Water is taken from the Condensate Storage Tanks (CO-T-1A or B), pumped with the steam turbine driven Emergency Feedwater Pump (EF-P-1) and controlled with flow control valves (EF-V-30A & B) to maintain OTSG level. Remote operation of the Atmospheric Dump Valves (MS-V-4A & B) and EFW Flow control valves (EF-V-30A & B) from the control room is used initially. Local control will be required after the instrument air supply is depleted .

Parameters required for control of reactor core cooling and containment monitoring are obtained via instrumentation which is powered from battery backed inverters. Shedding of DC loads is employed to extend battery life to six hours. No action is required to limit containment pressure within design limits.

Containment integrity will be maintained.

FLEX Phase 2, hour 4 to 24, strategy relies on installed plant equipment and portable on-site equipment. The FLEX diesel generator (FX-Y-1 A or B) will be started and both ES 480V power trains will be energized to provide power for vital instrumentation and FLEX equipment. Within 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> of diesel start, fuel oil transfer to the diesel fuel tank (FX-T-3) from DF-T-1 (30,000 gallon underground tank) will be initiated using diesel fuel pumps DF-P-1 C or DF-P-1 D.

The FLEX RCS makeup pump (FX-P-1A or B) will be operated to pump borated water (2500 ppmB) to the RCS from the BWST. Pressurizer level will be restored to the normal level for shutdown conditions.

RCS heat removal will continue as described in Phase 1 (i.e . ADV, EFW control valves, EF-P-1 and CO-T-1A & B). When pressurizer level is restored, an RCS cooldown will be initiated at a rate as limited by RCS makeup capability. Within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, the RCS will be stabilized at approximately 400F and 400 psig . Pressurizer level will then be raised above 300 inches. The increased RCS boron concentration will maintain the reactor shutdown even after Xenon has decayed. As OTSG pressure is lowered below 200 psig , the FLEX backup capability to feed the OTSG (FX-P-2A or B) is enabled. Each pump can utilize either water source (CO-T-1A & CO-T-1 B) and provide core cooling.

FLEX Phase 3, hour 24 to 72, strategy relies on installed plant equipment and portable on-site and off-site equipment. The direct means of core cooling remains as described in phase 2. A long term supply for condensate is established using portable submersible pumps (FX-P-6A or B) lowered into the ISPH pump bay. These pumps can be used to pump river water via hose to Condensate Tank 1B. The fuel oil and borated water supply will be sufficient for more than seven days before re-supply is required .

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 3.0 Equipment Selection Process and ESEL and Alternate Path Justifications The selection of equipment for the Expedited Seismic Equipment List (ESEL) [19) followed the guidelines of EPRI 3002000704 [2]. The ESEL for Unit 1 is presented in Attachment A.

3.1 Equipment Selection Process and ESEL The selection of equipment on the ESEL was based on installed plant equipment credited in the FLEX strategies during Phase 1, 2 and 3 mitigation of a Beyond Design Basis External Event (BDBEE), as outlined in the TMl-1 Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) in Response to the March 12, 2012, Commission Order EA-12-049 [3]. The OIP, including 6 month updates through August 2014 , provides the TMl-1 FLEX mitigation strategy and serves as the basis for the equipment selected for the ESEP.

The scope of "installed plant equipment" includes equipment relied upon for the FLEX strategies to sustain the critical functions of core cooling and containment integrity consistent with the TMl-1 OIP [3].

FLEX recovery actions are excluded from the ESEP scope per EPRI 3002000704 [2]. The overall list of planned FLEX modifications and the scope for consideration herein is limited to those required to support core cooling , reactor coolant inventory, sub-criticality, and containment integrity functions.

Portable and pre-staged FLEX equipment (not permanently installed) are excluded from the ESEL per EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

The ESEL component selection followed the EPRI guidance outlined in Section 3.2 of EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

1. The scope of components is limited to those required to accomplish the core cooling and containment safety functions identified in Table 3-2 of EPRI 3002000704 . The instrumentation monitoring requirements for core cooling/containment safety functions are limited to those outlined in the EPRI 3002000704 guidance, and are a subset of those outlined in the TMl-1 OIP [3] .
2. The scope of components is limited to installed plant equipment, and FLEX connections necessary to implement the TMl-1 OIP [3] as described in Section 2.
3. The scope of components assumes the credited FLEX connection modifications are implemented, and are limited to those required to support a single FLEX success path (i .e., either "Primary" or "Back-up/Alternate").
4. The "Primary" FLEX success path is to be specified. Selection of the "Back-up/Alternate" FLEX success path must be justified.
5. Phase 3 coping strategies are included in the ESEP scope, whereas recovery strategies are excluded.
6. Structures, systems, and components excluded per the EPRI 3002000704 [2] guidance are:
  • Structures (e .g. containment, reactor building , control building, auxiliary building, etc.)
  • Piping , cabling , conduit, HVAC , and their supports.
  • Manual valves and rupture disks.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301

7. For cases in which neither train was specified as a primary or back-up strategy, then only one train component (generally 'A' train) is included in the ESEL.

3.1.1 ESEL Development The ESEL was developed by reviewing the TMl-1 OIP , including 6 month FLEX updates through August 2014 [3], to determine the major equipment involved in the FLEX strategies. Further reviews of plant drawings (e.g., Process and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) and Electrical One Line Diagrams) were performed to identify the boundaries of the flow paths to be used in the FLEX strategies and to identify specific components in the flow paths needed to support implementation of the FLEX strategies. Boundaries were established at an electrical or mechanical isolation device (e.g .,

isolation amplifier, valve , etc.) in branch circuits I branch lines off the defined electrical or fluid flow path .

P&IDs were the primary reference documents used to identify mechanical components and instrumentation. The flow paths used for FLEX strategies were selected and specific components were identified using detailed equipment and instrument drawings, piping isometrics, electrical schematics and one-line diagrams, system descriptions, design basis documents, etc .. as necessary.

The flow paths credited for the TMl-1 ESEP are shown in Table 3-1 below.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Corre spondence No. RS-14-301 3.1.2 Power Operated Valves Page 3-3 of EPRI 3002000704 [2] notes that power operated valves not required to change state are excluded from the ESEL. Page 3-2 also notes that "functional failure modes of electrical and mechanical portions of the installed Phase 1 equipment should be considered (e .g. RCIC/AFW trips)."

To address this concern , the following guidance is applied in the TMl-1 ESEL for functional failure modes associated with power operated valves:

  • Power operated valves not requ ired to change state as part of the FLEX mitigation strategies were not included on the ESEL. The seismic event also causes the ELAP event; therefore, the valves are incapable of spurious operation as they would be de-energized .
  • Power operated valves not required to change state as part of the FLEX mitigation strategies during Phase 1, and are re-energ ized and operated during subsequent Phase 2 and 3 strategies , were not evaluated for spurious valve operation as the seismic event that caused the ELAP has passed before the valves are re-powered .

3.1.3 Pull Boxes Pull boxes were deemed unnecessary to add to the ESELs as these components provide completely passive locations for pulling or installing cables . No breaks or connections in the cabling are included in pull boxes. Pull boxes were considered part of conduit and cabling, which are excluded in accordance with EPRI 3002000704 [2].

3.1.4 Termination Cabinets Termination cabinets, including cabinets necessary for FLEX Phase 2 and Phase 3 connections ,

provide consolidated locations for permanently connecting multiple cables. The termination cabinets and the internal connections provide a completely passive function; however, the cabinets are included in the ESEL to ensure industry knowledge on panel/anchorage failure vulnerabilities is addressed and the connections are excluded from the ESEL.

3.1.5 Critical Instrumentation Indicators Critical indicators and recorders are typically physically located on panels/cabinets and are included as separate components; however, seismic evaluation of the instrument indication may be included in the panel/cabinet seismic evaluation (rule-of-the-box).

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 3.1.6 Phase 2 and Phase 3 Piping Connections Item 2 in Section 3.1 above notes that the scope of equipment in the ESEL includes " .. . FLEX connections necessary to implement the TMl-1 OIP [3] as described in Section 2." Item 3 in Section 3.1 notes that "The scope of components assumes the credited FLEX connection modifications are implemented, and are limited to those required to support a single FLEX success path (i.e., either "Primary" or "Back-up/Alternate ")." Item 6 in Section 3 goes on to explain that "Piping, cabling , conduit, HVAC, and their supports" are excluded from the ESEL scope in accordance with EPRI 3002000704

[2] .

Therefore , piping and pipe supports associated with FLEX Phase 2 and Phase 3 connections are excluded from the scope of the ESEP evaluation . However, any active valves in the FLEX Phase 2 and Phase 3 connection flow path are included in the ESEL.

3.2 Justification for use of Equipment that is not the Primary Means for FLEX Implementation All equipment used for FLEX implementation on the TMl-1 ESEL are primary path .

This calculation is shown in Table 5-1.

Figure 5-1 : TMl-1 RLGM (5% Damping) 5.2 Method to Estimate ISRS The method used to derive the ESEP in-structure response spectra (ISRS) was to uniformly scale existing SSE-based ISRS from 50097-R-001 [17) by the maximum GMRS/SSE ratio from Table 5-1 of 1.13. ISRS used for the ESEP were developed for the USI A-46 program. Scaled ISRS are calculated for all buildings and elevations where ESEL items are located at TMl-1. These scaled ISRS are documented within Tech Eva I 14-004 73 [1 OJ .

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Corre spondence No. RS-14-301 6.0 Seismic Margin Evaluation Approach It is necessary to demonstrate that ESEL items have sufficient seismic capacity to meet or exceed the demand characterized by the RLGM. The seismic capacity is characterized as the highest peak ground acceleration (PGA) for which there is a high confidence of a low probability of failure (HCLPF). The PGA is associated with a particular spectral shape, in this case the 5% damped RLGM spectral shape .

The calculated HCLPF capacity must be equal to or greater than the RLGM PGA (0 .14g from Table 5-2). The criteria for seismic capacity determination are given in Section 5 of EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

There are two basic approaches for developing HCLPF capacities:

1. Deterministic approach using the conservative deterministic failure margin (CDFM) methodology of EPRI NP-6041 [7] .
2. Probabilistic approach using the fragility analysis methodology of EPRI TR-103959 [8] .

For TMl-1 , the deterministic approach using the CDFM methodology of EPRI NP-604 1 [7] was used to determine HCLPF capacities .

6.1 Summary of Methodologies Used TMl-1 performed a probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) in 1994. The PRA is documented in the TMl-1 IPEEE report [9] and consisted of walkdowns and HCLPF calculations. The walkdowns were conducted by engineers trained in EPRI NP-6041 and PRA. Walkdown results were documented on Screening Evaluation Work Sheets (SEWS) from EPRI NP-6041 [7] in concert with the USI A-46 evaluation of TMl-1.

Within ESEP, TMl-1 conservatively applied the methodology of EPRI NP-6041 [7] to all 'existing' (i.e.

installed prior to FLEX modifications) items on the ESEL. Note that 'new' items on the TMl-1 ESEL represent equipment items not currently installed and are thus not evaluated herein. 'New' ESEL items are noted (1) in Table A-1 . These items will, however, be designed and procured to meet the higher seismic requirements imposed by being on the ESEL. The performed screening used Table 2-4 from EPRI NP-6041 [7]. The walkdowns were conducted by engineers who , as a minimum , have attended the SQUG Walkdown Screening and Seismic Evaluation Training Course. The walkdowns were documented in SEWS (contained within Tech Eval 14-00473 [10]) from EPRI NP-6041 [7] . Anchorage capacity calculations use the CDFM criteria established within EPRI NP-6041 [7] with TMl -1 specific allowables and material strengths used as applicable. The input seismic demand used was the RLGM shown in Table 5-2 and Figure 5-1.

6.2 HCLPF Screening Process From Table 5-2 , the spectral peak of the RLGM for TMI equals 0.49g . Screening lanes 1 and 2 in Table 2-4 of NP-6041 [7] are bounded by peak spectral accelerations of 0.8g and 1.2g , respectively. Both lane limits exceed the RLGM peak spectral acceleration . TMI ESEL components were screened to lane 1 of Table 2-4 in NP-6041 [7]. Note that the lane 1 spectral peak of 0.8g corresponds to a PGA of 0.3g .

Page 17 of 36

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 The TMl-1 ESEL contains 100 items [19) . Of these, 18 are valves, both power-operated and relief. In accordance with Table 2-4 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] , active valves may be assigned a functional capacity of 0.8g (relative to the spectral peak) only requiring a review of valves with large extended operators on small diameter piping. Note that anchorage is not a failure mode. Valves on the ESEL may be screened out, subject to the caveat regarding large extended operators on small diameter piping. The non-valve components in the ESEL were evaluated to the remaining EPRI NP-6041 Table 2-4 [7] screening caveats, as applicable . The screening results are summarized in Attachment B.

6.3 Seismic Walkdown Approach 6.3.1 Walkdown Approach Walkdowns for TMl-1 were performed in accordance with the criteria provided in Section 5 of EPRI 3002000704 [2]. which refers to EPRI NP-6041 [7} for the Seismic Margin Assessment process . Pages 2-26 through 2-30 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] describe the seismic walkdown criteria , including the following key criteria:

"The SRT [Seismic Review Team] should "walk by" 100% of all components which are reasonably accessible and in non-radioactive or low radioactive environments. Seismic capability assessment of components which are inaccessible, in high-radioactive environments, or possibly within contaminated containment, will have to rely more on alternate means such as photographic inspection, more reliance on seismic reanalysis, and possibly, smaller inspection teams and more hurried inspections . A 100% "walk by" does not mean complete inspection of each component, nor does it mean requiring an electrician or other technician to de-energize and open cabinets or panels for detailed inspection of all components. This walkdown is not intended to be a QA or QC review or a review of the adequacy of the component at the SSE level.

If the SRT has a reasonable basis for assuming that the group of components are similar and are similarly anchored, then it is only necessary to inspect one component out of this group. The "similarity-basis" should be developed before the walkdown during the seismic capability preparatory work (Step 3) by reference to drawings, calculations or specifications. The one component or each type which is selected should be thoroughly inspected which probably does mean de-energizing and opening cabinets or panels for this very limited sample. Generally, a spare representative component can be found so as to enable the inspection to be performed while the plant is in operation. At least for the one component of each type which is selected, anchorage should be thoroughly inspected.

The walkdown procedure should be performed in an ad hoc manner. For each class of components the SRT should look closely at the first items and compare the field configurations with the construction drawings and/or specifications. If a one-to-one correspondence is found, then subsequent items do not have to be inspected in as great a detail. Ultimately the walkdown Page 18 of 36

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 becomes a "walk by" of the component class as the SRT becomes confident that the construction pattern is typical. This procedure for inspection should be repeated for each component class; although, during the actual walkdown the SRT may be inspecting several classes of components in parallel. If serious exceptions to the drawings or questionable construction practices are found then the system or component class must be inspected in closer detail until the systematic deficiency is defined.

The 100% "walk by" is to look for outliers, lack of similarity, anchorage which is different from that shown on drawings or prescribed in criteria for that component, potential SI {Seismic lnteraction 1} problems, situations that are at odds with the team members' past experience, and any other areas of serious seismic concern. If any such concerns surface, then the limited sample size of one component of each type for thorough inspection will have to be increased.

The increase in sample size which should be inspected will depend upon the number of outliers and different anchorages, etc., which are observed. It is up to the SRT to ultimately select the sample size since they are the ones who are responsible for the seismic adequacy of all elements which they screen from the margin review. Appendix D gives guidance for sampling selection.

The TMl-1 walkdowns included, as a minimum, a 100% walk-by of all "existing" items on the TMl-1 ESEL except as noted in Section 7.0. Any previous walkdown information that was relied upon as the basis for SRT judgment in excluding an item walkdown is documented in Section 6.3.2.

6.3.2 Application of Previous Walkdown Information Previous seismic walkdowns conducted for the NTTF 2.3 [15] and USI A-46 [16] programs were used to supplement the NTTF 2.1 walkdowns of TMl-1 .

In general, detailed inspections were performed for NTTF 2.1 and included, as a minimum, a walk-by of all the components on the ESEL by the SRT with exception to the items listed below. A detailed discussion and resolution for each of the items listed below is provided in Section 7.0. This walkdown/walk-by was also used to confirm that no new seismic interactions 1 existed.

  • DF-T-1: 30,000 Gallon Underground Tank
  • DH-C-1A: Tube and Shell Heat Exchanger
  • DH-C-18: Tube and Shell Heat Exchanger
  • MS-PT-951: O to 1200 Pressure Transmitter
  • RC-PT-949: Pressure Transmitter
  • RC-TE-952C: RTD 1

EPRI 3002000704 [2] page 5-4 limits the ESEP seismic interaction reviews to "nearby block walls" and "piping attached to tanks" which are reviewed "to address the possibility of failures due to differential displacements." Other potential seismic interaction evaluations are "deferred to the full seismic risk evaluations performed in accordance with EPRI 1025287 (14]."

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 All non-energized cabinets were opened when specialized tools were not needed to operate the cabinet doors. As applicable, photos taken during the NTTF 2.3 walkdowns for TMl-1 and existing calculations and SEWS from the USI A-46 evaluation of TMl-1 were also utilized to aid the SRT for screening and HCLPF evaluations within ESEP.

6.3.3 Significant Walkdown Findings Consistent with the guidance from NP-6041 [7J , no significant outliers or anchorage concerns were identified during the TMl-1 ESEP walkdowns .

6.4 HCLPF Calculation Process ESEL items were evaluated using the criteria in EPRI NP-6041 [7J . Those evaluations included the following steps:

  • Performing seismic capability walkdowns for equipment to evaluate the equipment installed plant conditions
  • Performing screen ing evaluations using the screening tables in EPRI NP-6041 [7] as described in Section 6.2
  • Performing HCLPF calculations considering various failure modes that include both structural (e.g. anchorage , load path etc.) and functional failure modes.

All HCLPF calculations were performed using the CDFM methodology and are documented in Tech Eval 14-00473 [10].

Anchorage configurations for non-valve components were evaluated either by SRT judgment, large margins in existing design basis calculations, or CDFM based HCLPF calculations [1 OJ. The results of these analysis methods are documented in Attachment B. For components beyond 40 feet above grade, Table 2-4 of NP-6041 [7J is not directly applicable.

EPRI 3002000704 [2] Section 5 references EPRI 1019200 [18) with respect to screening criteria beyond 40 feet above grade. This guide update allows multiplying the screening lane spectral acceleration value ranges by a factor of 1.5 in order to account for spectral accelerations at the base of the component. This screening level at the base of a component is compared to the ISRS demand corresponding to the RLGM . For example, by factoring the acceleration ranges for screening lane 1 of NP-6041-SL Table 2-4 , the capacity at the base of a component is bounded by 0.8g*1.5 = 1.2g. This is compared with the seismic demand presented by the ISRS (as opposed to the RLGM).

ESEP equipment items which are beyond 40 feet above grade are located in the Control Building (CB) at elevation 355'. The 5% damped horizontal response spectra at this elevation are documented in Tech Eva I 14-004 73 [1 OJ . The spectral peak at this location is 0.85g , falling comfortably within the lane 1 bound of 1.2g. Note that while Reactor Building (RB) elevation 346' is also greater than 40 feet above grade and has an ESEL component, it is not addressed because the ESEL item at this elevation (RC-Page 20 of 36

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 PT-949) is a pressure transmitter which has screened out through a review of existing documentation.

Pressure transmitters in general are seismically rugged with GERS spectral capacities of 1Og as documented in EPRI NP-5223-SL, Section 3.11 [22].

As described in Section 6.0, for HCLPF calculations the conservative, deterministic failure margin (CDFM) analysis criteria established in Section 6 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] are used for a detailed analysis of components. The relevant CDFM criteria from EPRI NP-6041 [7] are summarized in Table 6-1.

In-structure (floor) spectra Use frequency shifting rather than peak broadening to generation: account for uncertainty and use median damping.

The HCLPF capacity is equal to the PGA at which the strength limit is reached. The HCLPF earthquake load is calculated as follows:

U = Normal + Ee Where:

  • U = Ultimate strength per Section 6 of EPRI NP-6041 [7]
  • Normal= Normal operating loads (dead and live load expected to be present, etc.)

For this calculation, the HCLPF earthquake load is related to a fixed reference earthquake:

Ee= Sf c*Eref Where:

  • Eref = reference earthquake from the relevant in-structure response spectrum (ISRS)
  • Sf c = component-specific scale factor that satisfies U = Normal +Ee Page 21of36

S&A Report 14Q4239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 The HCLPF will be defined as the PGA produced by Ee. Because the TMl-1 RLGM PGA is 0.14g:

HCLPF = 0.14g*SFc 6.5 Functional Evaluation of Relays Three relays and one switch in the TMl-1 ESEL (19] associated with the FLEX Phase 1 response required functional evaluations. Each relay was evaluated using the SMA relay evaluation criteria in Section 3 of NP-6041 [7] .

HCLPF capacities for the three relays are calculated using established GERS capacities from the NP-7147 SQUG Advisory (23] . Specific seismic qualification test-based capacities were available in TMl -1 plant documentation for the remain ing switch. In-cabinet capacity to demand evaluations were performed using the TMl-1 relay seismic capacities and the ESEP ISRS scaled with the NP-6041 in-cabinet amplification factors . In each case , the capacity exceeded the demand. These results are included in Attachment B. The ESEP relay functional evaluations are documented in Tech Eval 14-00473 [10].

6.6 Tabulated ESEL HCLPF Values (Including Key Failure Modes)

Tabulated ESEL HCLPF values including the key fa ilure modes are included in Attachment B following the criteria below:

  • For items screened out using NP-6041 [7] screening tables , the HCLPF is listed as "> RLGM"

(>0 .14g) and the failure mode is set to "Screened".

  • For items where anchorage controls the HCLPF value, the anchorage HCLPF value is listed in the table and the failure mode is set to "Anchorage".
  • For items where a relay or switch HCLPF controls, the relay or switch HCLPF value is listed in the table and the failure mode is set to "Functional Failure" .
  • For items where an equipment capacity based upon the screening lane values of Table 2-4 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] controls the HCLPF value (e.g. anchorage or relay HCLPF capacity exceeds the equipment capacity derived from screening lanes) , the screening lane HCLPF value is listed in the table and the failure mode is set to "Equipment Capacity". Based on NP-6041 Table 2-4 lane 1, this limit is equal to 0.23g for items below 40 feet above grade and 0.20g for items above 40 feet above grade (CB elevation 355' only).

The "Equipment Capacity" limits from above are calculated as follows :

The upper-bound spectral peak to NP-6041Table2-4 lane 1 is 0.8g . From Table 5-2 , the RLGM spectral peak is 0.49g and the PGA is 0.14g. Thus , for equipment less than 40 feet above grade, the "Equipment Capacity" HCLPF is limited to 0.8/0.49*0.14 = 0.23g . From TMl-1 Tech Eval 14-00473 [10],

the spectral peak at CB 355' is 0.85g. Thus, based on the discussion in section 6.4, for equipment greater than 40 feet above grade the "Equipment Capacity" HCLPF is limited to 1.2/0.85*0.14 = 0.20g.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 7.0 Inaccessible Items 7.1 Identification of ESEL Items Inaccessible for Walkdowns Six ESEL items were not accessible to the SRT during the ESEP walkdowns at TMl-1. A description of circumstances and disposition for each of these items is provided below.

DF-T-1:

This tank is buried and thus, was not accessible during the ESEP walkdowns. Per the screening criteria of Table 2-4 in EPRI NP-6041 [7], the anchorage configurations of buried tanks are inherently seismically rugged and of no concern . A review of the flexibility of attached piping for DF-T-1 was performed based on available documentation and is described in Tech Eval 14-00473 [10].

DH-C-1A and DH-C-1 B:

These heat exchangers are located in heat exchanger vaults A and B and were not accessed by the SRT during the ESEP walkdowns due to ALARA concerns and fall-protection training requirements.

Instead, a site Seismic Capability Engineer trained in SQUG performed photographic inspection under the direction of the SRT. This inspection was performed to the satisfaction of the SRT and a review of the photos was judged to be acceptable by the SRT.

MS-PT-951 and RC-PT-949:

These pressure transmitters were not walked down by the SRT during the at-power entry of the RB during the ESEP walkdowns due to ALARA concerns. Existing documentation and photos for these pressure transmitters exists; thus, follow-up activities for these components were deemed unnecessary.

A review of the available photos and walkdown notes from the USI A-46 walkdown of TMl-1 was judged to be acceptable by the SRT.

RC-TE-952C:

This Temperature Element was not walked down by the SRT during the at-power entry of the RB during the ESEP walkdowns due to ALARA concerns . Existing documentation for this temperature element exists ; thus, follow-up activities for this component were deemed unnecessary. EPRI NP-6041 Table 2-4 indicates that Temperature Sensors are inherently seismically rugged so a review of existing anchorage documentation was judged to be acceptable by the SRT.

7.2 Planned Walkdown I Evaluation Schedule I Close Out No additional walkdowns are required .

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 8.0 ESEP Conclusions and Results 8.1 Supporting Information TMl-1 has performed the ESEP as an interim action in response to the NRC's 50.54(f) letter [1]. It was performed using the methodologies in the NRC endorsed guidance in EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

The ESEP provides an important demonstration of seismic margin and expedites plant safety enhancements through evaluations and potential near-term modifications of plant equipment that can be relied upon to protect the reactor core following beyond design basis seismic events.

The ESEP is part of the overall TMl-1 response to the NRC's 50.54(f) letter [1]. On March 12, 2014, NEI submitted to the NRC results of a study [12] of seismic core damage risk estimates based on updated seismic hazard information as it applies to operating nuclear reactors in the Central and Eastern United States (CEUS). The study concluded that "site-specific seismic hazards show that there

[ ... ]has not been an overall increase in seismic risk for the fleet of U.S. plants" based on the re-evaluated seismic hazards. As such, the "current seismic design of operating reactors continues to provide a safety margin to withstand potential earthquakes exceeding the seismic design basis."

The NRC's May 9, 2014 NTTF 2.1 Screening and Prioritization letter [13) concluded that the "fleetwide seismic risk estimates are consistent with the approach and results used in the Gl-199 safety/risk assessment. " The letter also stated that "As a result, the staff has confirmed that the conclusions reached in Gl-199 safety/risk assessment remain valid and that the plants can continue to operate while additional evaluations are conducted. "

An assessment of the change in seismic risk for TMl-1 was included in the fleet risk evaluation submitted in the March 12, 2014 NEI letter (12] therefore , the conclusions in the NRC 's May 9 letter [13) also apply to TMl-1.

In addition, the March 12, 2014 NEI letter (12) provided an attached "Perspectives on the Seismic Capacity of Operating Plants," which (1) assessed a number of qualitative reasons why the design of Structures, Systems, and Components (SSCs) inherently contain margin beyond their design level, (2) discussed industrial seismic experience databases of performance of industry facility components similar to nuclear SSCs, and (3) discussed earthquake experience at operating plants.

The fleet of currently operating nuclear power plants was designed using conservative practices, such that the plants have significant margin to withstand large ground motions safely. This has been borne out of those plants that have actually experienced significant earthquakes. The seismic design process has inherent (and intentional) conservatisms which result in significant seismic margins within SSCs.

These conservatisms are reflected in several key aspects of the seismic design process, including :

  • Safety factors applied in design calculations
  • Damping values used in the dynamic analysis of SSCs
  • Bounding synthetic time histories for in-structure response spectra calculations
  • Broadening criteria for in-structure response spectra
  • Response spectra enveloping criteria typically used in SSC analysis and testing applications
  • Response spectra based frequency domain analysis rather than explicit time history based time domain analysis Page 24 of 36

S&A Report 14Q4239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301

  • Bounding requirements in codes and standards
  • Use of minimum strength .requirements of structural components (concrete and steel)
  • Bounding testing requirements, and
  • Ductile beha.vio.r of the pri0113ry rriateri~ls (that is, not crediting the additional capacity of materials such as steel and reinforced concrete beyond the essentially elastic range, etc.).

These design practices combine to resu.lt in margins such that the SSCs will continue to fulfill their functions at ground motionswell above the SSE.

8.2 Summ~ry of ESEP Identified and Planned Modifications The results of the TMl-1 ESEP performed as an interim action in response to the NRC's 50 .54(f) letter [1]

using the methodologies in the NRC endorsed guidance in EPRI 3002000704 [2] show that all equipment evaluated are adequate in resisting the seismic loads expected to result from the site RLGM. Therefore, no plant modifications are required as a result of the TMl-1 ESEP.

8.3 Modification Implementati on Schedule No modification implementation schedule is required because no modifications are required.

8.4 Summary of Regulatory Commitment s No regulatory commitments are required.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 1.0 Purpose and Objective Following the accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant resulting from the March 11, 2011 , Great Tohoku Earthquake and subsequent tsunami , the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRG) established a Near Term Task Force (NTTF) to conduct a systematic review of NRG processes and regulations and to determine if the agency should make additional improvements to its regulatory system. The NTTF developed a set of recommendations intended to clarify and strengthen the regulatory framework for protection against natural phenomena . Subsequently, the NRG issued a 50 .54(f) letter on March 12, 2012 [1 ], requesting information to assure that these recommendations are addressed by all U.S. nuclear power plants. The 50.54(f) letter requests that licensees and holders of construction permits under 10 CFR Part 50 reevaluate the seismic hazards at their sites against present-day NRG requirements and guidance. Depending on the comparison between the reevaluated seismic hazard and the current design basis, further risk assessment may be required . Assessment approaches acceptable to the staff include a seismic probabilistic risk assessment (SPRA) , or a seismic margin assessment (SMA). Based upon the assessment results, the NRG staff will determine whether additional regulatory actions are necessary.

This report describes the Expedited Seismic Evaluation Process (ESEP) undertaken for Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1. The intent of the ESEP is to perform an interim action in response to the NRC's 50 .54(f) letter [1] to demonstrate seismic margin through a review of a subset of the plant equipment that can be relied upon to protect the reactor core following beyond design basis seismic events .

The ESEP is implemented using the methodologies in the NRG endorsed guidance in EPRI 3002000704 , Seismic Evaluation Guidance: Augmented Approach for the Resolution of Fukushima Near-Term Task Force Recommendation 2.1 : Seismic [2] . Note that the TMl-1 ESEP is based on the TMl-1 FLEX strategy as of October 9, 2014, and the TMl- 1 FLEX strategy will be implemented in November 2015.

The objective of this report is to provide summary information describing the ESEP evaluations and results for TMl-1 . The level of detail provided in this report is intended to enable the NRG to understand the inputs used, the evaluations performed , and the decisions made as a result of the interim evaluations for TMl-1.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 2.0 Brief Summary of the FLEX Seismic Implementation Strategies The TMl-1 FLEX strategies for Reactor Core Cooling and Heat Removal, Reactor Inventory Control/Long-term Sub-criticality and Containment Functions are summarized below. This strategy is described in Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) in Response to the March 12, 2012, Commission Order EA-12-049, including 6 month FLEX updates through August 2014 [3].

FLEX Phase 1, first four hours, strategy relies on installed plant equipment. Reactor Coolant System Inventory control relies upon low leakage RCP seals and stabilizing RCS temperature to ensure adequate inventory to support single phase natural circulation . Reactor core cooling and heat removal is achieved via steam release from the Once Through Steam Generators (OTSG) using the Atmospheric Dump Valves (MS-V-4A&B). Water is taken from the Condensate Storage Tanks (CO-T-1A or B), pumped with the steam turbine driven Emergency Feedwater Pump (EF-P-1) and controlled with flow control valves (EF-V-30A & B) to maintain OTSG level. Remote operation of the Atmospheric Dump Valves (MS-V-4A & B) and EFW Flow control valves (EF-V-30A & B) from the control room is used initially. Local control will be required after the instrument air supply is depleted .

Parameters required for control of reactor core cooling and containment monitoring are obtained via instrumentation which is powered from battery backed inverters. Shedding of DC loads is employed to extend battery life to six hours. No action is required to limit containment pressure within design limits.

Containment integrity will be maintained.

FLEX Phase 2, hour 4 to 24, strategy relies on installed plant equipment and portable on-site equipment. The FLEX diesel generator (FX-Y-1 A or B) will be started and both ES 480V power trains will be energized to provide power for vital instrumentation and FLEX equipment. Within 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> of diesel start, fuel oil transfer to the diesel fuel tank (FX-T-3) from DF-T-1 (30,000 gallon underground tank) will be initiated using diesel fuel pumps DF-P-1 C or DF-P-1 D.

The FLEX RCS makeup pump (FX-P-1A or B) will be operated to pump borated water (2500 ppmB) to the RCS from the BWST. Pressurizer level will be restored to the normal level for shutdown conditions.

RCS heat removal will continue as described in Phase 1 (i.e . ADV, EFW control valves, EF-P-1 and CO-T-1A & B). When pressurizer level is restored, an RCS cooldown will be initiated at a rate as limited by RCS makeup capability. Within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, the RCS will be stabilized at approximately 400F and 400 psig . Pressurizer level will then be raised above 300 inches. The increased RCS boron concentration will maintain the reactor shutdown even after Xenon has decayed. As OTSG pressure is lowered below 200 psig , the FLEX backup capability to feed the OTSG (FX-P-2A or B) is enabled. Each pump can utilize either water source (CO-T-1A & CO-T-1 B) and provide core cooling.

FLEX Phase 3, hour 24 to 72, strategy relies on installed plant equipment and portable on-site and off-site equipment. The direct means of core cooling remains as described in phase 2. A long term supply for condensate is established using portable submersible pumps (FX-P-6A or B) lowered into the ISPH pump bay. These pumps can be used to pump river water via hose to Condensate Tank 1B. The fuel oil and borated water supply will be sufficient for more than seven days before re-supply is required .

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 3.0 Equipment Selection Process and ESEL and Alternate Path Justifications The selection of equipment for the Expedited Seismic Equipment List (ESEL) [19) followed the guidelines of EPRI 3002000704 [2]. The ESEL for Unit 1 is presented in Attachment A.

3.1 Equipment Selection Process and ESEL The selection of equipment on the ESEL was based on installed plant equipment credited in the FLEX strategies during Phase 1, 2 and 3 mitigation of a Beyond Design Basis External Event (BDBEE), as outlined in the TMl-1 Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) in Response to the March 12, 2012, Commission Order EA-12-049 [3]. The OIP, including 6 month updates through August 2014 , provides the TMl-1 FLEX mitigation strategy and serves as the basis for the equipment selected for the ESEP.

The scope of "installed plant equipment" includes equipment relied upon for the FLEX strategies to sustain the critical functions of core cooling and containment integrity consistent with the TMl-1 OIP [3].

FLEX recovery actions are excluded from the ESEP scope per EPRI 3002000704 [2]. The overall list of planned FLEX modifications and the scope for consideration herein is limited to those required to support core cooling , reactor coolant inventory, sub-criticality, and containment integrity functions.

Portable and pre-staged FLEX equipment (not permanently installed) are excluded from the ESEL per EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

The ESEL component selection followed the EPRI guidance outlined in Section 3.2 of EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

1. The scope of components is limited to those required to accomplish the core cooling and containment safety functions identified in Table 3-2 of EPRI 3002000704 . The instrumentation monitoring requirements for core cooling/containment safety functions are limited to those outlined in the EPRI 3002000704 guidance, and are a subset of those outlined in the TMl-1 OIP [3] .
2. The scope of components is limited to installed plant equipment, and FLEX connections necessary to implement the TMl-1 OIP [3] as described in Section 2.
3. The scope of components assumes the credited FLEX connection modifications are implemented, and are limited to those required to support a single FLEX success path (i .e., either "Primary" or "Back-up/Alternate").
4. The "Primary" FLEX success path is to be specified. Selection of the "Back-up/Alternate" FLEX success path must be justified.
5. Phase 3 coping strategies are included in the ESEP scope, whereas recovery strategies are excluded.
6. Structures, systems, and components excluded per the EPRI 3002000704 [2] guidance are:
  • Structures (e .g. containment, reactor building , control building, auxiliary building, etc.)
  • Piping , cabling , conduit, HVAC , and their supports.
  • Manual valves and rupture disks.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301

7. For cases in which neither train was specified as a primary or back-up strategy, then only one train component (generally 'A' train) is included in the ESEL.

3.1.1 ESEL Development The ESEL was developed by reviewing the TMl-1 OIP , including 6 month FLEX updates through August 2014 [3], to determine the major equipment involved in the FLEX strategies. Further reviews of plant drawings (e.g., Process and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) and Electrical One Line Diagrams) were performed to identify the boundaries of the flow paths to be used in the FLEX strategies and to identify specific components in the flow paths needed to support implementation of the FLEX strategies. Boundaries were established at an electrical or mechanical isolation device (e.g .,

isolation amplifier, valve , etc.) in branch circuits I branch lines off the defined electrical or fluid flow path .

P&IDs were the primary reference documents used to identify mechanical components and instrumentation. The flow paths used for FLEX strategies were selected and specific components were identified using detailed equipment and instrument drawings, piping isometrics, electrical schematics and one-line diagrams, system descriptions, design basis documents, etc .. as necessary.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Corre spondence No. RS-14-301 3.1.2 Power Operated Valves Page 3-3 of EPRI 3002000704 [2] notes that power operated valves not required to change state are excluded from the ESEL. Page 3-2 also notes that "functional failure modes of electrical and mechanical portions of the installed Phase 1 equipment should be considered (e .g. RCIC/AFW trips)."

To address this concern , the following guidance is applied in the TMl-1 ESEL for functional failure modes associated with power operated valves:

  • Power operated valves not requ ired to change state as part of the FLEX mitigation strategies were not included on the ESEL. The seismic event also causes the ELAP event; therefore, the valves are incapable of spurious operation as they would be de-energized .
  • Power operated valves not required to change state as part of the FLEX mitigation strategies during Phase 1, and are re-energ ized and operated during subsequent Phase 2 and 3 strategies , were not evaluated for spurious valve operation as the seismic event that caused the ELAP has passed before the valves are re-powered .

3.1.3 Pull Boxes Pull boxes were deemed unnecessary to add to the ESELs as these components provide completely passive locations for pulling or installing cables . No breaks or connections in the cabling are included in pull boxes. Pull boxes were considered part of conduit and cabling, which are excluded in accordance with EPRI 3002000704 [2].

3.1.4 Termination Cabinets Termination cabinets, including cabinets necessary for FLEX Phase 2 and Phase 3 connections ,

provide consolidated locations for permanently connecting multiple cables. The termination cabinets and the internal connections provide a completely passive function; however, the cabinets are included in the ESEL to ensure industry knowledge on panel/anchorage failure vulnerabilities is addressed and the connections are excluded from the ESEL.

3.1.5 Critical Instrumentation Indicators Critical indicators and recorders are typically physically located on panels/cabinets and are included as separate components; however, seismic evaluation of the instrument indication may be included in the panel/cabinet seismic evaluation (rule-of-the-box).

FLEX connections necessary to implement the TMl-1 OIP [3] as described in Section 2." Item 3 in Section 3.1 notes that "The scope of components assumes the credited FLEX connection modifications are implemented, and are limited to those required to support a single FLEX success path (i.e., either "Primary" or "Back-up/Alternate ")." Item 6 in Section 3 goes on to explain that "Piping, cabling , conduit, HVAC, and their supports" are excluded from the ESEL scope in accordance with EPRI 3002000704

[2] .

Therefore , piping and pipe supports associated with FLEX Phase 2 and Phase 3 connections are excluded from the scope of the ESEP evaluation . However, any active valves in the FLEX Phase 2 and Phase 3 connection flow path are included in the ESEL.

3.2 Justification for use of Equipment that is not the Primary Means for FLEX Implementation All equipment used for FLEX implementation on the TMl-1 ESEL are primary path .

This calculation is shown in Table 5-1.

ISRS used for the ESEP were developed for the USI A-46 program. Scaled ISRS are calculated for all buildings and elevations where ESEL items are located at TMl-1. These scaled ISRS are documented within Tech Eva I 14-004 73 [1 OJ .

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Corre spondence No. RS-14-301 6.0 Seismic Margin Evaluation Approach It is necessary to demonstrate that ESEL items have sufficient seismic capacity to meet or exceed the demand characterized by the RLGM. The seismic capacity is characterized as the highest peak ground acceleration (PGA) for which there is a high confidence of a low probability of failure (HCLPF). The PGA is associated with a particular spectral shape, in this case the 5% damped RLGM spectral shape .

The calculated HCLPF capacity must be equal to or greater than the RLGM PGA (0 .14g from Table 5-2). The criteria for seismic capacity determination are given in Section 5 of EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

There are two basic approaches for developing HCLPF capacities:

1. Deterministic approach using the conservative deterministic failure margin (CDFM) methodology of EPRI NP-6041 [7] .
2. Probabilistic approach using the fragility analysis methodology of EPRI TR-103959 [8] .

For TMl-1 , the deterministic approach using the CDFM methodology of EPRI NP-604 1 [7] was used to determine HCLPF capacities .

6.1 Summary of Methodologies Used TMl-1 performed a probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) in 1994. The PRA is documented in the TMl-1 IPEEE report [9] and consisted of walkdowns and HCLPF calculations. The walkdowns were conducted by engineers trained in EPRI NP-6041 and PRA. Walkdown results were documented on Screening Evaluation Work Sheets (SEWS) from EPRI NP-6041 [7] in concert with the USI A-46 evaluation of TMl-1.

Within ESEP, TMl-1 conservatively applied the methodology of EPRI NP-6041 [7] to all 'existing' (i.e.

installed prior to FLEX modifications) items on the ESEL. Note that 'new' items on the TMl-1 ESEL represent equipment items not currently installed and are thus not evaluated herein. 'New' ESEL items are noted (1) in Table A-1 . These items will, however, be designed and procured to meet the higher seismic requirements imposed by being on the ESEL. The performed screening used Table 2-4 from EPRI NP-6041 [7]. The walkdowns were conducted by engineers who , as a minimum , have attended the SQUG Walkdown Screening and Seismic Evaluation Training Course. The walkdowns were documented in SEWS (contained within Tech Eval 14-00473 [10]) from EPRI NP-6041 [7] . Anchorage capacity calculations use the CDFM criteria established within EPRI NP-6041 [7] with TMl -1 specific allowables and material strengths used as applicable. The input seismic demand used was the RLGM shown in Table 5-2 and Figure 5-1.

6.2 HCLPF Screening Process From Table 5-2 , the spectral peak of the RLGM for TMI equals 0.49g . Screening lanes 1 and 2 in Table 2-4 of NP-6041 [7] are bounded by peak spectral accelerations of 0.8g and 1.2g , respectively. Both lane limits exceed the RLGM peak spectral acceleration . TMI ESEL components were screened to lane 1 of Table 2-4 in NP-6041 [7]. Note that the lane 1 spectral peak of 0.8g corresponds to a PGA of 0.3g .

Page 17 of 36

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 The TMl-1 ESEL contains 100 items [19) . Of these, 18 are valves, both power-operated and relief. In accordance with Table 2-4 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] , active valves may be assigned a functional capacity of 0.8g (relative to the spectral peak) only requiring a review of valves with large extended operators on small diameter piping. Note that anchorage is not a failure mode. Valves on the ESEL may be screened out, subject to the caveat regarding large extended operators on small diameter piping. The non-valve components in the ESEL were evaluated to the remaining EPRI NP-6041 Table 2-4 [7] screening caveats, as applicable . The screening results are summarized in Attachment B.

6.3 Seismic Walkdown Approach 6.3.1 Walkdown Approach Walkdowns for TMl-1 were performed in accordance with the criteria provided in Section 5 of EPRI 3002000704 [2]. which refers to EPRI NP-6041 [7} for the Seismic Margin Assessment process . Pages 2-26 through 2-30 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] describe the seismic walkdown criteria , including the following key criteria:

"The SRT [Seismic Review Team] should "walk by" 100% of all components which are reasonably accessible and in non-radioactive or low radioactive environments. Seismic capability assessment of components which are inaccessible, in high-radioactive environments, or possibly within contaminated containment, will have to rely more on alternate means such as photographic inspection, more reliance on seismic reanalysis, and possibly, smaller inspection teams and more hurried inspections . A 100% "walk by" does not mean complete inspection of each component, nor does it mean requiring an electrician or other technician to de-energize and open cabinets or panels for detailed inspection of all components. This walkdown is not intended to be a QA or QC review or a review of the adequacy of the component at the SSE level.

If the SRT has a reasonable basis for assuming that the group of components are similar and are similarly anchored, then it is only necessary to inspect one component out of this group. The "similarity-basis" should be developed before the walkdown during the seismic capability preparatory work (Step 3) by reference to drawings, calculations or specifications. The one component or each type which is selected should be thoroughly inspected which probably does mean de-energizing and opening cabinets or panels for this very limited sample. Generally, a spare representative component can be found so as to enable the inspection to be performed while the plant is in operation. At least for the one component of each type which is selected, anchorage should be thoroughly inspected.

The walkdown procedure should be performed in an ad hoc manner. For each class of components the SRT should look closely at the first items and compare the field configurations with the construction drawings and/or specifications. If a one-to-one correspondence is found, then subsequent items do not have to be inspected in as great a detail. Ultimately the walkdown Page 18 of 36

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 becomes a "walk by" of the component class as the SRT becomes confident that the construction pattern is typical. This procedure for inspection should be repeated for each component class; although, during the actual walkdown the SRT may be inspecting several classes of components in parallel. If serious exceptions to the drawings or questionable construction practices are found then the system or component class must be inspected in closer detail until the systematic deficiency is defined.

The 100% "walk by" is to look for outliers, lack of similarity, anchorage which is different from that shown on drawings or prescribed in criteria for that component, potential SI {Seismic lnteraction 1} problems, situations that are at odds with the team members' past experience, and any other areas of serious seismic concern. If any such concerns surface, then the limited sample size of one component of each type for thorough inspection will have to be increased.

The increase in sample size which should be inspected will depend upon the number of outliers and different anchorages, etc., which are observed. It is up to the SRT to ultimately select the sample size since they are the ones who are responsible for the seismic adequacy of all elements which they screen from the margin review. Appendix D gives guidance for sampling selection.

The TMl-1 walkdowns included, as a minimum, a 100% walk-by of all "existing" items on the TMl-1 ESEL except as noted in Section 7.0. Any previous walkdown information that was relied upon as the basis for SRT judgment in excluding an item walkdown is documented in Section 6.3.2.

6.3.2 Application of Previous Walkdown Information Previous seismic walkdowns conducted for the NTTF 2.3 [15] and USI A-46 [16] programs were used to supplement the NTTF 2.1 walkdowns of TMl-1 .

In general, detailed inspections were performed for NTTF 2.1 and included, as a minimum, a walk-by of all the components on the ESEL by the SRT with exception to the items listed below. A detailed discussion and resolution for each of the items listed below is provided in Section 7.0. This walkdown/walk-by was also used to confirm that no new seismic interactions 1 existed.

  • DF-T-1: 30,000 Gallon Underground Tank
  • DH-C-1A: Tube and Shell Heat Exchanger
  • DH-C-18: Tube and Shell Heat Exchanger
  • MS-PT-951: O to 1200 Pressure Transmitter
  • RC-PT-949: Pressure Transmitter
  • RC-TE-952C: RTD 1

EPRI 3002000704 [2] page 5-4 limits the ESEP seismic interaction reviews to "nearby block walls" and "piping attached to tanks" which are reviewed "to address the possibility of failures due to differential displacements." Other potential seismic interaction evaluations are "deferred to the full seismic risk evaluations performed in accordance with EPRI 1025287 (14]."

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 All non-energized cabinets were opened when specialized tools were not needed to operate the cabinet doors. As applicable, photos taken during the NTTF 2.3 walkdowns for TMl-1 and existing calculations and SEWS from the USI A-46 evaluation of TMl-1 were also utilized to aid the SRT for screening and HCLPF evaluations within ESEP.

6.3.3 Significant Walkdown Findings Consistent with the guidance from NP-6041 [7J , no significant outliers or anchorage concerns were identified during the TMl-1 ESEP walkdowns .

6.4 HCLPF Calculation Process ESEL items were evaluated using the criteria in EPRI NP-6041 [7J . Those evaluations included the following steps:

  • Performing seismic capability walkdowns for equipment to evaluate the equipment installed plant conditions
  • Performing screen ing evaluations using the screening tables in EPRI NP-6041 [7] as described in Section 6.2
  • Performing HCLPF calculations considering various failure modes that include both structural (e.g. anchorage , load path etc.) and functional failure modes.

All HCLPF calculations were performed using the CDFM methodology and are documented in Tech Eval 14-00473 [10].

Anchorage configurations for non-valve components were evaluated either by SRT judgment, large margins in existing design basis calculations, or CDFM based HCLPF calculations [1 OJ. The results of these analysis methods are documented in Attachment B. For components beyond 40 feet above grade, Table 2-4 of NP-6041 [7J is not directly applicable.

EPRI 3002000704 [2] Section 5 references EPRI 1019200 [18) with respect to screening criteria beyond 40 feet above grade. This guide update allows multiplying the screening lane spectral acceleration value ranges by a factor of 1.5 in order to account for spectral accelerations at the base of the component. This screening level at the base of a component is compared to the ISRS demand corresponding to the RLGM . For example, by factoring the acceleration ranges for screening lane 1 of NP-6041-SL Table 2-4 , the capacity at the base of a component is bounded by 0.8g*1.5 = 1.2g. This is compared with the seismic demand presented by the ISRS (as opposed to the RLGM).

ESEP equipment items which are beyond 40 feet above grade are located in the Control Building (CB) at elevation 355'. The 5% damped horizontal response spectra at this elevation are documented in Tech Eva I 14-004 73 [1 OJ . The spectral peak at this location is 0.85g , falling comfortably within the lane 1 bound of 1.2g. Note that while Reactor Building (RB) elevation 346' is also greater than 40 feet above grade and has an ESEL component, it is not addressed because the ESEL item at this elevation (RC-Page 20 of 36

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 PT-949) is a pressure transmitter which has screened out through a review of existing documentation.

Pressure transmitters in general are seismically rugged with GERS spectral capacities of 1Og as documented in EPRI NP-5223-SL, Section 3.11 [22].

As described in Section 6.0, for HCLPF calculations the conservative, deterministic failure margin (CDFM) analysis criteria established in Section 6 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] are used for a detailed analysis of components. The relevant CDFM criteria from EPRI NP-6041 [7] are summarized in Table 6-1.

In-structure (floor) spectra Use frequency shifting rather than peak broadening to generation: account for uncertainty and use median damping.

The HCLPF capacity is equal to the PGA at which the strength limit is reached. The HCLPF earthquake load is calculated as follows:

U = Normal + Ee Where:

  • U = Ultimate strength per Section 6 of EPRI NP-6041 [7]
  • Normal= Normal operating loads (dead and live load expected to be present, etc.)

For this calculation, the HCLPF earthquake load is related to a fixed reference earthquake:

Ee= Sf c*Eref Where:

  • Eref = reference earthquake from the relevant in-structure response spectrum (ISRS)
  • Sf c = component-specific scale factor that satisfies U = Normal +Ee Page 21of36

S&A Report 14Q4239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 The HCLPF will be defined as the PGA produced by Ee. Because the TMl-1 RLGM PGA is 0.14g:

HCLPF = 0.14g*SFc 6.5 Functional Evaluation of Relays Three relays and one switch in the TMl-1 ESEL (19] associated with the FLEX Phase 1 response required functional evaluations. Each relay was evaluated using the SMA relay evaluation criteria in Section 3 of NP-6041 [7] .

HCLPF capacities for the three relays are calculated using established GERS capacities from the NP-7147 SQUG Advisory (23] . Specific seismic qualification test-based capacities were available in TMl -1 plant documentation for the remain ing switch. In-cabinet capacity to demand evaluations were performed using the TMl-1 relay seismic capacities and the ESEP ISRS scaled with the NP-6041 in-cabinet amplification factors . In each case , the capacity exceeded the demand. These results are included in Attachment B. The ESEP relay functional evaluations are documented in Tech Eval 14-00473 [10].

6.6 Tabulated ESEL HCLPF Values (Including Key Failure Modes)

Tabulated ESEL HCLPF values including the key fa ilure modes are included in Attachment B following the criteria below:

  • For items screened out using NP-6041 [7] screening tables , the HCLPF is listed as "> RLGM"

(>0 .14g) and the failure mode is set to "Screened".

  • For items where anchorage controls the HCLPF value, the anchorage HCLPF value is listed in the table and the failure mode is set to "Anchorage".
  • For items where a relay or switch HCLPF controls, the relay or switch HCLPF value is listed in the table and the failure mode is set to "Functional Failure" .
  • For items where an equipment capacity based upon the screening lane values of Table 2-4 of EPRI NP-6041 [7] controls the HCLPF value (e.g. anchorage or relay HCLPF capacity exceeds the equipment capacity derived from screening lanes) , the screening lane HCLPF value is listed in the table and the failure mode is set to "Equipment Capacity". Based on NP-6041 Table 2-4 lane 1, this limit is equal to 0.23g for items below 40 feet above grade and 0.20g for items above 40 feet above grade (CB elevation 355' only).

The "Equipment Capacity" limits from above are calculated as follows :

The upper-bound spectral peak to NP-6041Table2-4 lane 1 is 0.8g . From Table 5-2 , the RLGM spectral peak is 0.49g and the PGA is 0.14g. Thus , for equipment less than 40 feet above grade, the "Equipment Capacity" HCLPF is limited to 0.8/0.49*0.14 = 0.23g . From TMl-1 Tech Eval 14-00473 [10],

the spectral peak at CB 355' is 0.85g. Thus, based on the discussion in section 6.4, for equipment greater than 40 feet above grade the "Equipment Capacity" HCLPF is limited to 1.2/0.85*0.14 = 0.20g.

A description of circumstances and disposition for each of these items is provided below.

DF-T-1:

This tank is buried and thus, was not accessible during the ESEP walkdowns. Per the screening criteria of Table 2-4 in EPRI NP-6041 [7], the anchorage configurations of buried tanks are inherently seismically rugged and of no concern . A review of the flexibility of attached piping for DF-T-1 was performed based on available documentation and is described in Tech Eval 14-00473 [10].

These heat exchangers are located in heat exchanger vaults A and B and were not accessed by the SRT during the ESEP walkdowns due to ALARA concerns and fall-protection training requirements.

Instead, a site Seismic Capability Engineer trained in SQUG performed photographic inspection under the direction of the SRT. This inspection was performed to the satisfaction of the SRT and a review of the photos was judged to be acceptable by the SRT.

MS-PT-951 and RC-PT-949:

These pressure transmitters were not walked down by the SRT during the at-power entry of the RB during the ESEP walkdowns due to ALARA concerns. Existing documentation and photos for these pressure transmitters exists; thus, follow-up activities for these components were deemed unnecessary.

A review of the available photos and walkdown notes from the USI A-46 walkdown of TMl-1 was judged to be acceptable by the SRT.

RC-TE-952C:

This Temperature Element was not walked down by the SRT during the at-power entry of the RB during the ESEP walkdowns due to ALARA concerns . Existing documentation for this temperature element exists ; thus, follow-up activities for this component were deemed unnecessary. EPRI NP-6041 Table 2-4 indicates that Temperature Sensors are inherently seismically rugged so a review of existing anchorage documentation was judged to be acceptable by the SRT.

S&A Report 1404239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301 8.0 ESEP Conclusions and Results 8.1 Supporting Information TMl-1 has performed the ESEP as an interim action in response to the NRC's 50.54(f) letter [1]. It was performed using the methodologies in the NRC endorsed guidance in EPRI 3002000704 [2] .

The ESEP provides an important demonstration of seismic margin and expedites plant safety enhancements through evaluations and potential near-term modifications of plant equipment that can be relied upon to protect the reactor core following beyond design basis seismic events.

The ESEP is part of the overall TMl-1 response to the NRC's 50.54(f) letter [1]. On March 12, 2014, NEI submitted to the NRC results of a study [12] of seismic core damage risk estimates based on updated seismic hazard information as it applies to operating nuclear reactors in the Central and Eastern United States (CEUS). The study concluded that "site-specific seismic hazards show that there

[ ... ]has not been an overall increase in seismic risk for the fleet of U.S. plants" based on the re-evaluated seismic hazards. As such, the "current seismic design of operating reactors continues to provide a safety margin to withstand potential earthquakes exceeding the seismic design basis."

The NRC's May 9, 2014 NTTF 2.1 Screening and Prioritization letter [13) concluded that the "fleetwide seismic risk estimates are consistent with the approach and results used in the Gl-199 safety/risk assessment. " The letter also stated that "As a result, the staff has confirmed that the conclusions reached in Gl-199 safety/risk assessment remain valid and that the plants can continue to operate while additional evaluations are conducted. "

An assessment of the change in seismic risk for TMl-1 was included in the fleet risk evaluation submitted in the March 12, 2014 NEI letter (12] therefore , the conclusions in the NRC 's May 9 letter [13) also apply to TMl-1.

In addition, the March 12, 2014 NEI letter (12) provided an attached "Perspectives on the Seismic Capacity of Operating Plants," which (1) assessed a number of qualitative reasons why the design of Structures, Systems, and Components (SSCs) inherently contain margin beyond their design level, (2) discussed industrial seismic experience databases of performance of industry facility components similar to nuclear SSCs, and (3) discussed earthquake experience at operating plants.

The fleet of currently operating nuclear power plants was designed using conservative practices, such that the plants have significant margin to withstand large ground motions safely. This has been borne out of those plants that have actually experienced significant earthquakes. The seismic design process has inherent (and intentional) conservatisms which result in significant seismic margins within SSCs.

These conservatisms are reflected in several key aspects of the seismic design process, including :

  • Safety factors applied in design calculations
  • Damping values used in the dynamic analysis of SSCs
  • Bounding synthetic time histories for in-structure response spectra calculations
  • Broadening criteria for in-structure response spectra
  • Response spectra enveloping criteria typically used in SSC analysis and testing applications
  • Response spectra based frequency domain analysis rather than explicit time history based time domain analysis Page 24 of 36

S&A Report 14Q4239-RPT-004 Rev 3 Correspondence No. RS-14-301

  • Bounding requirements in codes and standards
  • Use of minimum strength .requirements of structural components (concrete and steel)
  • Bounding testing requirements, and
  • Ductile beha.vio.r of the pri0113ry rriateri~ls (that is, not crediting the additional capacity of materials such as steel and reinforced concrete beyond the essentially elastic range, etc.).

These design practices combine to resu.lt in margins such that the SSCs will continue to fulfill their functions at ground motionswell above the SSE.

8.2 Summ~ry of ESEP Identified and Planned Modifications The results of the TMl-1 ESEP performed as an interim action in response to the NRC's 50 .54(f) letter [1]

using the methodologies in the NRC endorsed guidance in EPRI 3002000704 [2] show that all equipment evaluated are adequate in resisting the seismic loads expected to result from the site RLGM. Therefore, no plant modifications are required as a result of the TMl-1 ESEP.

8.3 Modification Implementati on Schedule No modification implementation schedule is required because no modifications are required.

8.4 Summary of Regulatory Commitment s No regulatory commitments are required.
