Page 2 1 Introduction Catawba Nuclear Station (CNS) developed an Overall Integrated Plan (Reference 1 in Section 8), documenting the diverse and flexible strategies (FLEX), in response to NRC Order EA-12-049 (Reference 2 in Section 8). The Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) was submitted to the NRC on February 28, 2013. This enclosure provides an update of milestone accomplishments including any changes to the compliance method, schedule, or need for relief/relaxation and the basis, if any, that occurred during the period from July 29, 2014 to January 28, 2015 (hereafter referred to as "the update period").2 Milestone Accomplishments The following milestones were completed during the update period: 1) Third Six-Month Status Report for Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 was submitted on August 28, 2014.2) Phase II Staffing Study per NEI 12-01 submitted to the NRC on October 28, 2014.3 Milestone Schedule Status The following provides an update to Attachment 2 of the Overall Integrated Plan. It provides the activity status of each item, and whether the expected completion date has changed from that stated in Attachment 2 of the OIP.

These changes do not impact Catawba Nuclear Stations compliance with NEI 12-06.1) Changqe: All references to the Regional Response Center (RRC) in the OIP shall now be called the National SAFER Response Center (NSRC). Further designation can be NSRC-M for the Memphis location and NSRC-P for the Phoenix location.Justification:
Industry/Utility groups decided to rename the Regional Response Centers and all involved parties agreed upon the change.Documentation:
Reference 9/11/14 letter from Joseph E. Pollack, NEI, to Jack R. Davis, NRC/NRR regarding National SAFER Response Center Operational Status (ADAMS Accession No. ML14259A222) and White Paper on National SAFER Response Center (ADAMS Accession No. ML14259A223)
: 2) Change: Line Item 12 on Page 7 of 94 in the OIP states that a portable diesel driven pump should be aligned to the Nuclear Service Water (RN) system in 10 hours to provide long term makeup for the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) and Steam Generators (S/Gs). Based on further analysis, it is not necessary to have the RN system filled and pressurized for at least 40 hours to support SFP makeup.Justification:
Based on the available water supply in the seismically robust Condenser Cooling Water (RC) system, the Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump can feed the S/Gs with the RC water source for at least 5 days on Unit 1 and for at least 8 days on Unit 2. RN makeup to the SFP is not required for 40 hours to maintain at least 10 feet of water above the top of the fuel assemblies based on worst case evaporation rates in the SFP.Documentation:
Reference Appendix L in Report No. 030321.13.01-001, Rev. 1 (Seismic Robustness Review Of Catawba Unit 1 Non-Safety Piping And Components For Diverse And Flexible Mitigation Strategies (Flex) dated January 2014, Westinghouse calculation CN-SEE-II-13-22 (Catawba Nuclear Station FLEX Alternate Cooling Evaluation Input Auxiliary Feedwater Usage) dated 7/23/14, and email from Darrell Davies to Jordan Penley dated 5/21/14 with subject line "RE: Catawba ELAP".3) Change: Line Item 19 on Page 7 of 94 and the Phase 1 Containment discussion on Page 35 of 94 in the OIP states that containment pressure remains below design limits for at least 72 hours. The final containment analysis for Catawba determined that containment pressures actually exceed design pressure about 52 hours into the event (15 psig design and 17.5 psig at 52 hours).Justification:
An evaluation of the containment structure and associated penetrations was performed and it was determined that no significant issues exist when containment pressures reach 17.5 psig Documentation:
Open Item 94.
ENCLOSURE Page 5 CNS Fourth Sixth Month Status Report (Order EA-12-049)
: 4) Change: Line Items 20 and 21 on Page 7 of 94, the Phase 2 Containment discussion starting on Page 37 of 94, the Phase 3 Containment discussion starting on Page 41 of 94, Action Item 26 and 27 on Page 71 of 94, Portable Pump Supply to Containment Spray Site Plan drawing on Page 81 of 94, Open Items 21 and 22 on Page 91 of 94, and Open Item 42 on Page 92 of 94 in the OIP all deal with using Containment Spray for temperature/pressure control. Containment Spray will no longer be used for pressure/temperature control based on the latest containment analysis.Justification:
Due to concerns with not having enough containment spray capabilities (flow rates and pressures from the portable pumps) to provide adequate pressure/temperature control and the fact that the containment spray water would add to flooding issues inside containment, a different containment pressure/temperature control strategy was developed.
The new strategy makes use of the Hydrogen Skimmer, Containment Air Return, and Lower Containment ventilation fans to provide the necessary temperature and pressure controls until Residual Heat Removal strategies are put in service.Documentation:
Reference Rev. 2 of DPC-1 552.08-00-0280 (Extended Loss of AC Power (ELAP) -Ice Condenser Containment Response with FLEX Mitigation Strategies).
: 5) Change: The last paragraph under Item 3 on Page 9 of 94 in the OIP states that the 50.54(hh)(2) (B.5.b) pump is credited in the FLEX mitigating strategies and that this pump will be moved into one of the new FLEX storage facilities that also meets all 50.54(hh)(2) requirements.
The B.5.b pump is no longer being credited in the Flex mitigation strategies.
Justification:
Additional pumps and equipment have been purchased to support all the requirements for the Flex mitigation strategies.
As such, use of the B.5.b pump is no longer necessary.
Documentation:
Reference Flex mitigation strategies in the Emergency Operating Procedures, Abnormal Operating Procedures, and Flex Support Guidelines.
Open Items 37 and 53.6) Change: There are a number of references to the RRC Playbook throughout the OIP (see Pages 3, 12, 23, and 92 of 94). This document is now referred to as the SAFER Response Plan for Catawba Nuclear Station.Justification:
Reference Rev. 001 of the SAFER Response Plan for Catawba Nuclear Station approved on 1/29/15.Documentation:
Open Item 55.
ENCLOSURE Page 6 CNS Fourth Sixth Month Status Report (Order EA-12-049)
: 7) Change: The wording related to the Alternate Power Distribution strategy mentioned on Page 16 and 55 in the OIP needs to be clarified as follows: Wording on Page 16 and 55 should say "If normal power supplies are not available, they will be disconnected to allow connection of alternate supply cables. A quantity of alternate supply cables will be available to replace the Flex power supplies normally provided to a common plant area. If necessary, alternate supply cables can be connected at the portable diesel generator.
Procedural guidelines will direct these activities (Open Item 58)".Justification:
The existing wording in the OIP for the Alternate Power Distribution strategy can be interpreted a number of different ways. As such, the wording has been revised to provide a little more clarification.
Specific actions related to the Alternate Power strategy will be contained in the associated procedures.
Documentation:
Open Item 58.8) Change: Per discussion with CNS and MNS Engineering, Safety Analysis, Westinghouse, and MPR it was determined that a new pressure breakdown orifice will be required in each of the Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) No.1 seal leak off lines, upstream of the existing flow orifice. Westinghouse has conservatively provided an assumed worst case pressure of 2045 psia at the No.1 seal outlet following an Extended Loss of All AC Power (ELAP)event. The new pressure breakdown orifice is needed to prevent damage/degradation to the existing flow orifice because of excessive delta P. Additional piping stress and support analysis will also be performed once the new temperature/pressure profile is determined to ensure all of the associated seal leak off line components retain their pressure boundary function.Justification:
All of the analyses related to an ELAP assume the leak rate from the RCP No. 1 seal is 21 gpm or less. To ensure this assumption remains valid, a new pressure breakdown orifice needs to be installed in the RCP No. 1 seal leak off line for each pump to lower pressures enough such that downstream components do not fail and create the possibility for leak rates greater than 21 gpm.Documentation:
Open Item 96.5 Need for Relief/Relaxation and Basis for the Relief/Relaxation CNS expects to comply with the order implementation date and no relief/relaxation is required at this time.
