| ===Background===
| | Pursuant to 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), the applicant must consider the following plant systems, structures, and components within the scope of license renewal: |
| : Pursuant to 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), the applicant must consider the following plant systems, structures, and components within the scope of license renewal:
| | Safety-related systems, structures, and components which are those relied upon to remain functional during and following design-basis events (as defined in 10 CFR 50.49 (b)(1)) to ensure the following functions - |
| Safety-related systems, structures, and components which are those relied upon to remain functional during and following design-basis events (as defined in 10 CFR 50.49 (b)(1)) to ensure the following functions - | | (i) The integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary; (ii) The capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition; or (iii) The capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents which could result in potential offsite exposures comparable to those referred to in 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1), 10 CFR 50.67(b)(2), or 10 CFR 100.11, as applicable. |
| (i) The integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary; (ii) The capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition; or (iii) The capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents which could result in potential offsite exposures comparable to those referred to in 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1), 10 CFR 50.67(b)(2), or 10 CFR 100.11, as applicable.
| | License Renewal Application (LRA) Section 2.1.3.2, Identification of Safety-Related Systems and Structures, states: |
| License Renewal Application (LRA) Section 2.1.3.2, "Identification of Safety-Related Systems and Structures," states: | | Safety-related systems and structures are included in the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) scoping criterion. Hope Creek systems and structures that have been classified as safety-related are identified as Q in the controlled quality classification data field in the Systems, Applications and Products in Data Processing (SAP) database. Hope Creek quality classification procedures were reviewed against the license renewal safety-related scoping criterion in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), to confirm that Hope Creek safety-related classifications are consistent with license renewal requirements. This review is included in a technical basis document. |
| Safety-related systems and structures are included in the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) scoping criterion. Hope Creek systems and structures that have been classified as safety-related are identified as "Q" in the controlled quality classification data field in the Systems, Applications and Products in Data Processing (SAP) database. Hope Creek quality classification procedures were reviewed against the license renewal "safety-related" scoping criterion in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), to confirm that Hope Creek safety-related classifications are consistent with license renewal requirements. This review is included in a technical basis document. The basis document also provides a summary list of the systems and structures that are safety-related at Hope Creek. These systems and structures were included in the scope of license renewal under the 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) scoping criteria. | | The basis document also provides a summary list of the systems and structures that are safety-related at Hope Creek. These systems and structures were included in the scope of license renewal under the 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) scoping criteria. |
| Issues: 1. During review of the LRA and performance of the scoping and screening methodology audit, performed on-site on January 11-21, 2010, the staff determined that the scoping implementing documents discuss the use of the classification "SR," listed in the component classification field in the SAP, as an initial identifier of safety-related systems. In addition, the classification "Q," listed in the component classification field in the SAP, was also used to determine whether systems identified as safety-related in the SAP would be included within the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1). The staff determined that a detailed description of the process would be required for the staff to complete its review. | | Issues: |
| Request: The staff requests that the applicant provide a detailed description of the use of all component classifications in the SAP, including "SR" and "Q", that were used to identify safety-related systems to be included within the scope of license renewal or used to exclude systems from within the scope of license renewal.

| : 2. During review of the LRA and performance of the scoping and screening methodology audit, performed on-site January 11-21, 2010, the staff determined that the 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) implementing document discusses incorrect or conservative SAP component data module (CDM) classifications. The implementing procedure provided the process and results of the applicant's determination that certain systems do not perform safety-related functions as defined in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), and were, therefore, not included within the scope of license renewal. The staff determined that a detailed description of the process would be required for the staff to complete its review.

| Request: The staff requests that the applicant provide a detailed description of the process used to evaluate systems or components, identified as safety-related in SAP, and to conclude that the SAP component data module (CDM) classifications were conservative or incorrect and that the systems or components do not perform safety-related functions as defined in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1).

| The staff requests that the applicant perform a review of these issues and indicate if the review concludes that use of the scoping methodology precluded the identification of structures, systems and components (SSCs) which should have included within the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a). Describe any additional scoping evaluations to be performed to address the 10 CFR 54.4(a) criteria. As part of your response, list any additional SSCs included within the scope as a result of your efforts, and list those structures and components for which aging management reviews were conducted or any additional information related to material and environment combinations. For each structure and component, describe the aging management programs, as applicable, to be credited for managing the identified aging effects.}} | | The staff requests that the applicant perform a review of these issues and indicate if the review concludes that use of the scoping methodology precluded the identification of structures, systems and components (SSCs) which should have included within the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a).

HOPE CREEK GENERATING STATION LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR SECTION 2.1, SCOPING AND SCREENING METHODOLOGY (TAC NO. ME1832)
RAI 2.1-1
Background:
Pursuant to 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), the applicant must consider the following plant systems, structures, and components within the scope of license renewal:
Safety-related systems, structures, and components which are those relied upon to remain functional during and following design-basis events (as defined in 10 CFR 50.49 (b)(1)) to ensure the following functions -
(i) The integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary; (ii) The capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition; or (iii) The capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents which could result in potential offsite exposures comparable to those referred to in 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1), 10 CFR 50.67(b)(2), or 10 CFR 100.11, as applicable.
License Renewal Application (LRA) Section 2.1.3.2, Identification of Safety-Related Systems and Structures, states:
Safety-related systems and structures are included in the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) scoping criterion. Hope Creek systems and structures that have been classified as safety-related are identified as Q in the controlled quality classification data field in the Systems, Applications and Products in Data Processing (SAP) database. Hope Creek quality classification procedures were reviewed against the license renewal safety-related scoping criterion in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), to confirm that Hope Creek safety-related classifications are consistent with license renewal requirements. This review is included in a technical basis document.
The basis document also provides a summary list of the systems and structures that are safety-related at Hope Creek. These systems and structures were included in the scope of license renewal under the 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) scoping criteria.
Issues:
- 1. During review of the LRA and performance of the scoping and screening methodology audit, performed on-site on January 11-21, 2010, the staff determined that the scoping implementing documents discuss the use of the classification SR, listed in the component classification field in the SAP, as an initial identifier of safety-related systems. In addition, the classification Q, listed in the component classification field in the SAP, was also used to determine whether systems identified as safety-related in the SAP would be included within the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1). The staff determined that a detailed description of the process would be required for the staff to complete its review.
ENCLOSURE
Request:
The staff requests that the applicant provide a detailed description of the use of all component classifications in the SAP, including SR and Q, that were used to identify safety-related systems to be included within the scope of license renewal or used to exclude systems from within the scope of license renewal.
- 2. During review of the LRA and performance of the scoping and screening methodology audit, performed on-site January 11-21, 2010, the staff determined that the 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) implementing document discusses incorrect or conservative SAP component data module (CDM) classifications. The implementing procedure provided the process and results of the applicants determination that certain systems do not perform safety-related functions as defined in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), and were, therefore, not included within the scope of license renewal. The staff determined that a detailed description of the process would be required for the staff to complete its review.
Request:
The staff requests that the applicant provide a detailed description of the process used to evaluate systems or components, identified as safety-related in SAP, and to conclude that the SAP component data module (CDM) classifications were conservative or incorrect and that the systems or components do not perform safety-related functions as defined in 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1).
The staff requests that the applicant perform a review of these issues and indicate if the review concludes that use of the scoping methodology precluded the identification of structures, systems and components (SSCs) which should have included within the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a). Describe any additional scoping evaluations to be performed to address the 10 CFR 54.4(a) criteria. As part of your response, list any additional SSCs included within the scope as a result of your efforts, and list those structures and components for which aging management reviews were conducted or any additional information related to material and environment combinations. For each structure and component, describe the aging management programs, as applicable, to be credited for managing the identified aging effects.
