: 7. Potential Interim Staff Evaluation Impacts As discussed in Section 4, the channel probe locations shown in Attachments 1 and 3 of the OIP have changed. The Channel A probe is shown where the Channel B probe is located, and the Channel B probe is shown where the Channel A probe is located.
In Section 3.4 (Page 9 of 30), the ISE references the August 20, 2013 letter from IPEC that describes the arrangement of the primary and backup instruments. The referenced paragraph in the ISE is revised as follows:
The backup instrument (Channel B) will be in the southeast corner of the SFP and the primary instrument (Channel A) will be in the northwest corner of the SFP.
Locating the new instruments in the corners of the SFP takes advantage of missile and debris protection inherent in the corners. Channel B cable will be routed along the east Fuel Storage Building (FSB) wall and then along the south FSB wall to enter the Fan House, while Channel A is routed along the west FSB wall until it enters the Fan House, maintaining physical separation in FSB. Channel A and B displays will both be located in each unit's Fan House.
There are no additional potential impacts to the Interim Staff Evaluation identified at this time except for those identified in Section 6.

: 9. Responses to the Interim Staff Evaluation Requests for Additional Information RAI #1 Please provide information regarding the specific requirements in the procedures controlling irradiated equipment or materials stored in the SFP, including details of any analysis performed to determine the projected dose rate impact and the appropriate Level 2 value as a result of other hardware stored in the SPF.
Interim Staff Guidance JLD-ISG-2012-03 'Compliance with Order EA-12-051, Reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation' states 'The NRC staff considers that the methodologies and guidance in conformance with the guidelines provided in NEI 12-02, Revision 1, subject to the clarifications and exceptions in Attachment 1 to this ISG, are an acceptable means of meeting the requirements of Order EA-12-051 ."
NEI 12-02 Ri section 2.3.2, 'Level 2- level that is adequate to provide substantial radiation shielding for a person standing on the spent fuel pool operating deck' defines Level 2.
Level 2 represents the range of water level where any necessary operations in the vicinity of the spent fuel pool can be completed without significant dose consequences from direct gamma radiation from the stored spent fuel. Level 2 is based on either of the following:
* 10 feet (+/- 1 foot) above the highest point of any fuel rack seated in the spent fuel pools, or
* a designated level that provides adequate radiation shielding to maintain personnel radiological dose levels within acceptable limits while performing local operations in the vicinity of the pool. This level shall be based on either plant-specific or appropriate generic shielding calculations, considering the emergency conditions that may apply at the time and the scope of necessary local operations, including installation of portable SFP instrument channel components. Additional guidance can be found in EPA-400 (Reference 4),
USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.13 (Reference 5) and ANSI/ANS-57.2-1983 (Reference 6).
Entergy has selected the 10 foot option which has been determined by the NRC to meet the requirements of the order with no further evaluation or review required.

Attachment to NL-14-109 Dockets 50-247 and 50-286 Page 6 of 13 RAI #2 Please provide a description of the protection provided for the cabling routed along the exterior of the fuel building for Channel B of IP2 and IP3. Also, please provide a sketch to illustrate the remaining cable routing from the fuel building wall penetrations to the processor units for Channel A and Channel B for IP2 and IP3.
As noted in Sections 4 and 7, the probe locations shown in Attachments 1 and 3 of the OIP have been changed. The Channel A probe is shown where the Channel B probe is located, and the Channel B probe is shown where the Channel A probe is located.
For IP3, Channel A will penetrate through the west wall into the Fan House approximately 30 ft north of the doorway into the Fan House. The Fan House is a Seismic Class 1 structure that is protected against adverse weather conditions. The Channel B route will follow the east wall to the south wall, follow along the south wall and penetrate on the south side of the doorway between the Fan House and the Fuel Storage Building (FSB). Once outside the FSB, the two conduit runs will converge near the door between the FSB and the Fan House. Each channel will maintain plant design channelization requirements by remaining in their dedicated conduits.
The two channels will be run down to the 67'-6" Elevation of the PAB Fan House. Both conduits are to be routed through the existing penetration south of the door between the Fan House and the upper mezzanine of the pipe penetration area. Once through the penetration they will be routed down the hall to the Gas Analyzer Rack, which is part of the retired in place Hydrogen Recombiner Panel. The two indicators will be mounted on the panel by removing the retired in place equipment and installing the level indicators. The 1P3 SFPI cable routing within the Fan House is shown graphically in Figure 1.
For 1P2, the response to this RAI will be provided in a future six-month update.

RAI #4 For each of the mounting attachments required to attach SFP Level equipment to plant structures, please describe the design inputs, and the methodology that was used to qualify the structural integrity of the affected structures/equipment.
See bridging document Topics #8, 9, 12, and 13 (Section 10). [Note: Preliminary responses are available in the draft bridging document, which will be finalized upon issuance of the NRC audit report for the SFPI vendor (MOHR).]
IP2 analysis is being developed and will be provided in a future six-month update.
RAI #5 Please address how other hardware stored in the SFP will not create adverse interaction with the fixed instrument location(s).
As a part of the Engineering Change (EC) process for IP3, SFPI probe locations in the northwest and southeast corners were verified to be free of stored SFP hardware. Future hardware additions to the SFP are controlled by procedure.
The RAI response for IP2 will be provided in a future six-month update.

Attachment to NL-14-109 Dockets 50-247 and 50-286 Page 8 of 13 RAI #6 Please provide the following:
a) Information indicating a) the temperature ratings for all system electronics (including sensor electronics, system electronics, transmitter, receiver and display) and whether the ratings are continuous duty ratings; and, b) what will be the maximum expected temperature in the room(s) in which the sensor electronics will be located under BDB conditions in which there will be no ac power available to run Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems.
b) Information indicating the maximum expected relative humidity in the room in which the sensor electronics will be located under BDB conditions, in which there is no ac power available to run HVAC systems, and whether the sensor electronics is capable of continuously performing its required functions under this expected humidity condition.
c) Documentation or analysis of the maximum expected radiological conditions (dose rate and total integrated dose) to which the equipment located within the fan house will be exposed.
a) See bridging document Topic #3 (Section 10). [Note: Preliminary responses are available in the draft bridging document, which will be finalized upon issuance of the NRC audit report for the SFPI vendor (MOHR).]
IP2 analysis is being developed and will be provided in a future six-month update.
b) See bridging document Topic #3 (Section 10). [Note: Preliminary responses are available in the draft bridging document, which will be finalized upon issuance of the NRC audit report for the SFPI vendor (MOHR).]

c) See bridging document Topic #4 (Section 10). [Note: Preliminary responses are available in the draft bridging document, which will be finalized upon issuance of the NRC audit report for the SFPI vendor (MOHR).]
For IP3, the indicator/display processor is located in a low dose area on the 67'-6" elevation in Fan House. This elevation is below the level of the top of the fuel racks in the Fuel Storage Building, Elevation 69-7 1/2". Section 3.4 of NEI 12-02 states that level instrument channels should be qualified for radiation levels for a normal refueling quantity of freshly discharged fuel with the SFP water level at Level 3. Since Level 3 (70-7 1/2") is a foot above the top of the fuel racks, lowering water levels to this level would not result in a reduction in shielding between the spent fuel assemblies and the location of the SFPI display in the Fan House at Elevation 67'-6". Dose rates in the area of the indicator/display processor will remain unchanged and thus remain acceptable for both electronics and operators.
The expected radiological conditions for the IP2 SFPI display will be provided in a future six-month update.

Attachment to NL-14-109 Dockets 50-247 and 50-286 Page 11 of 13 RAI #13 Please describe the evaluation used to validate that the display location can be accessed without unreasonable delay following a BDB event. Include the time available for personnel to access the display as credited in the evaluation, as well as the actual time (e.g., based on walk-throughs) that it will take for personnel to access the display.
Additionally, please include a description of the radiological and environmental conditions on the paths personnel might take. Describe whether the display location remains habitable for radiological, heat and humidity, and other environmental conditions following a BDB event. Describe whether personnel are continuously stationed at the display or monitor the display periodically.
The FLEX Strategy and Staffing plans account for personnel available following a BDB event.
The display location can be reached without unreasonable delay utilizing the "normal" path to access the 67'-6" elevation of the Fanhouse which is through the RCA Access point into the PAB and then into the Fanhouse. The PAB is a Seismic Cat I building and the path consists of hallways which can be accessed following a BDB event. A walkdown was performed from the CCR to the display location on the 67'-6" elevation of the Fanhouse and it was timed at less than or equal to 20 minutes. There are also multiple other pathways (dependent upon the path obstruction) to access the display if this primary route was not available following the BDB event. Sections 3.1.9 and 3.1.13 of EC-45666 explains that the radiological conditions of the display location, pre and post BDB event, remain unchanged (a low dose area) based on the location of the displays being located at an elevation (67'-6") lower than the top of the fuel racks and thus maintaining the same amount of shielding as during normal operation. IP-CALC-00068, Rev.0 analyzes the temperature conditions of the display location and concludes that although the area will have a peak high temperature of approximately 125 deg F, in an extreme heat condition, it will remain habitable for an Operator to access the display and obtain the level information. Entergy does not plan to have an Operator continuously stationed at the display but to monitor the display on an as needed basis.
IP2 analysis is being developed and will be provided in a future six month update.

Attachment to NL-14-109 Dockets 50-247 and 50-286 Page 12 of 13 RAI #14 Please provide a list of the procedures addressing operation (both normal and abnormal response), calibration, test, maintenance, and inspection procedures that will be developed for use of the spent SFP instrumentation. The licensee is requested to include a brief description of the specific technical objectives to be achieved within each procedure.
The calibration and test procedure developed by MOHR is provided in the technical manual (See bridging document Topics #10, 19, and 20) [Note: Preliminary responses are available in the draft bridging document, which will be finalized upon issuance of the NRC audit report for the SFPI vendor (MOHR).]. The objectives are to measure system performance, determine if there is a deviation from normal tolerances, and to return the system to normal tolerances.
Diagnostic procedures developed by MOHR are provided as automated and semi-automated routines in system software alerting the operator to abnormal deviation in selected system parameters such as battery voltage, 4-20 mA loop continuity, and TDR waveform of the transmission cable. The technical objective of the diagnostic procedures is to identify system conditions that require operator attention to ensure continued reliable liquid level measurement.
Manual diagnostic procedures are also provided in the event that further workup is determined to be necessary.
Maintenance procedures developed by MOHR are provided in the technical manual. These allow a technician trained in EFP-IL system maintenance to ensure that system functionality is maintained.
An operation procedure will provide sufficient instructions for operation and use of the system.
Entergy procedures will be developed in accordance with the vendor manuals provided by MOHR and Entergy procedures and processes.
FLEX Support Guidelines will provide sufficient instructions for use of the SFPI during a beyond design basis external event.

Attachment to NL-14-109 Dockets 50-247 and 50-286 Page 13 of 13 RAI #15 Please provide the following:
a) Further information describing the maintenance and testing program the licensee will establish and implement to ensure that regular testing and calibration is performed and verified by inspection and audit to demonstrate conformance with design and system readiness requirements. Include a description of your plans for ensuring that necessary channel checks, functional tests, periodic calibration, and maintenance will be conducted for the level measurement system and its supporting equipment.
b) A description of the in-situ calibration process at the SFP location that will result in the channel calibration being maintained at its design accuracy.
a) SFPI channel/equipment maintenance/preventative maintenance and testing program requirements to ensure design and system readiness will be established in accordance with Entergy's processes and procedures and in consideration of vendor recommendations to ensure that appropriate regular testing, channel checks, functional tests, periodic calibration, and maintenance are performed (and available for inspection and audit). See bridging document Topics #10 and 20 (Section 10). [Note: Preliminary responses are available in the draft bridging document, which will be finalized upon issuance of the NRC audit report for the SFPI vendor (MOHR).]
b) The process will be captured in Entergy procedures established based on manufacturer's recommendations and Entergy processes and procedures. The instrument automatically monitors the integrity of its level measurement system using in-situ capability. Deviation of measured test parameters from manufactured or as-installed configuration beyond a configurable threshold prompts operator intervention. See bridging document Topic #20 (Section 10). [Note: Preliminary responses are available in the draft bridging document, which will be finalized upon issuance of the NRC audit report for the SFPI vendor (MOHR).]}}
