Item Interim Staff Evaluation OPEN Item Status number 3.1.1.1.A Each section of the Integrated Plan Completed. See February 2014 Update describing storage protection from hazards makes reference to Section 11 rather than to the specific protection requirements described in NET 12-06 for the applicable hazard; that is Section 6.2.3.1 for floods, Section 7.3.1 for wind, etc. As a result, the specific guidelines for each hazard are not addressed.

3.1.2.2. B The Plan is silent regarding loss of Completed. See February 2014 Update normal access to the Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS) due to flood hazard conditions, the need to provide electrical power for sump pumps, and whether or not flood barriers will be utilized.

See August 2014 Update licensee as part of the 6-month update states that they are proposing to install a prestaged generator to supply all FLEX related loads for both units simultaneously for Phase 2 mitigating strategies. This appears to be an alternative approach for satisfying the Mitigating Strategies order. Insufficient information has been provided by the licensee in order to determine whether this provides an equivalent level of protection as would be provided through conformance with NEI 12-06.

During a isolation to prevent simultaneously FLEX event all power to the plant electrical system will supplying power to the same Class 1 be lost per FLEX assumptions. Connection of the FLEX E bus and regarding minimum bus diesel generator requires installation of a special device voltages during the use of FLEX to allow connection of temporary cables to the associated generators. plant electrical bus.

A procedure is being diesel generators. Need to confirm developed to provide direction for use of the pump and that the modification is installed and methods to refuel FLEX equipment. Use of the supplies sufficient fuel. submersible pump allows greater flexibility in that fuel oil can be obtained from more than just the 2/3 Emergency Diesel Generator main fuel oil storage tank.

Off-site testing of the submersible pump confirms a minimum pumping capacity of 1.3 gpm (78 gph) for each submersible pump. At the present time the largest fueling need is the FLEX Diesel Generator which has a fuel burn rate of approximately 57 gph at full load. One submersible pump will meet this requirement with margin.

The fuel oil use evaluation for equipment requiring refueling in the current strategy identifies approximately 68 gallons per hour (56.7 gph FLEX generator, 7.6 gph pump in Ultimate Heat Sink, 4.5 gph all 6 small portable generators operating). This is within the capacity of 1 submersible fuel oil pump with margin.

Multiple pumps have been obtained for use. More than one pump can be in operation at a time which further increases available refueling rates for FLEX equipment.

There are 3 Emergency Diesel Generator main fuel oil storage tanks. Each has a Technical Specification minimum volume of 10,000 gallons. With an overall fuel consumption rate of 69 gph each storage tank would Page 10 of 12

The above discussion describes the strategy during non-flood conditions.

Because the Dresden flood event is precipitation based there is time to prepare for the flood. During those preparations station personnel will install a standpipe on the 2/3 EDG Main Fuel Oil Tank vent line. The standpipe is designed such that additional sections can be added/removed as the flood waters rise and recede. The submersible pump described above will be lowered into the standpipe. A floating platform will provide a working location for personnel and equipment to support pumping fuel oil out of the 2/3 EDG fuel oil tank.
