The level does not need to be fully restored to allow shutdown cooling. The level need only be above the hot leg.

Given RCS liquid volume of 10,400 ft 11 3, this means approximately 18,500 gallons are required to restore the PRZ level. Each Boric Acid Tank contains 9700 gallons the VCT contains 4000 gallons. Fully PRZ level is not required full shutdown cooling when core damage is the alternative.

Currently, these CKVs are modeled under FMM1SGCVLV.
It is unclear which check valve CCF combinations are appropriate to consider.
This event has a failure probability far lower than several three element CKV groups in the AFW system. There does not appear to be a basis for this difference. The failure likelihoods (independent and common cause) of the check valves in the AFW system should be consistent or the basis for the difference is documented.

Further, as the random failure of these CKVs could cause a LOFW trip and eliminate all secondary side feed to a single S/G, this is worthy of consideration as an initiating event.

Further, as the random failure of these CKVs could cause a LOFW trip and eliminate all secondary side feed to a single S/G, this is worthy of consideration as an initiating event. Currently, shutdown cooling is credited as a long-term cooling method to eliminate the circulation requirement on certain ranges of LOCA breaks. A certain amount of water must be above the bottom of the hot leg to avoid drawing vapor into the shutdown cooling system. Some calculation must be done to ensure that the RCS will be above this critical point. This calculation could be quite simple: determine the RCS water level at the point of shutdown Disposition and Resolution of Open F&Os Finding .Resolutions Provided to Independent Review For Finding Closure This finding was reviewed and closed with no further action. To enter SOC during the course of mitigating a LOCA, an RCS level of 30% in the Pressurizer is required by EOP-3. Further, once SOC has been entered AOP-03-02 requires OTC to be re-established if RCS level falls below 29 feet 9.5 inches (Top of Hot Leg). Operation of SOC in the above referenced condition is procedurally not allowed and physically not possible.
 
Therefore the question is highly hypothetical and not applicable at PSL. The response for resolution is inadequate.

One walkdown was performed before the identification of the flood source began but flood sources have not been confirmed during a dedicated confirmatory walkdown.
Some potential inconsistencies between the isometric drawings used for the identification of the flood sources and actual configuration has been observed during the peer review walkdown.
For example Appendix A indicates more than 138' of CC piping in the U2 Battery room A (2RAB43-35) but no CC piping has been observed in the room during the walkdown.
On the other hand, demin water lines to the emergency eyewash have been observed during the peer review walkdown in the battery room, which are not listed in the Appendix A datasheet.

This event has a failure probability far lower than several three element CKV groups in the AFW system. There does not appear to be a basis for this difference. The failure likelihoods (independent and common cause) of the check valves in the AFW system should be consistent or the basis for the difference is documented.

Further, as the random failure of these CKVs could cause a LOFW trip and eliminate all secondary side feed to a single S/G, this is worthy of consideration as an initiating event.

At best the documentation process for revising the PSL Model Update Reports is confusing. The revisions of these reports are stand-alone documents and the information is not carried forward in successive revisions.

needed to identify significant potential human-induced flooding mechanisms.

IFSO-A4 requires the identification of flooding mechanisms that would result in a release for each potential source of flooding including item (b),

human-induced mechanisms that could lead to overfilling tanks, diversion of flow-through openings created to perform maintenance; inadvertent actuation of fire-suppression system. It is judged that this limited consideration of induced flooding does not meet the intent of SR IFSO-A4. Therefore, this F&O remains open.

Reliability and unavailability of automatic detection systems were assumed in the LAR submitted model to be incorporated in the manual non-suppression probabilities specified in NUREG/CR-6850, Appendix P, as revised in NUREG/CR-6850, Supplement 1.

In order to address the concern that the information inherent in the NUREG/CR-6850 data may not be bounding, the model has been updated to incorporate this additional failure potential. The scenario development event tree incorporates an additional node, before any suppression (manual or automatic) is credited. The event tree detection failure path includes a 15-minute time delay before manual suppression is allowed to be credited (using SOP guidance for detection time for locations without detection systems). Figure 1 in L-2014-109 (pg. 53)shows an event tree without consideration of detection failure. Figure 2 in L-2014-109 (pg. 53) shows the Updated approach which incorporates detection failure. Note that the MS1/MS 15 and MS2/MS_15 values are bounded to a maximum value of 1. This results in zero ignition frequency being applied to the success branch for instances where the time to target damage or time to hot gas layer is less than 15 minutes. NUREG/CR-

NUREG/CR-6850 Appendix P does not specify guidance on thermal detection failure probability, therefore the use of the associated suppression system failure probability is applied to the corresponding detection system.

The items listed in the table of implementation items in the enclosure to FPL letter L-2018-006, "Third Response to Request for Additional Inf01mation Regarding License Amendment Request to Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505, Revision 1, 'Provide Risk Informed Extended Completion Times- RITSTF Initiative 4b'," February 1, 2018, and
b. The sL'C implementation items listed in Attachment 1 to FPL letter L-2018-201, "Fourth Supplement to License Amendment Request to Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505, Revision 1, 'Provide Risk-Informed Extended Completion Times- RITSTF Initiative 4b,'" November 9, 2018.
2. The risk assessment approach and methods, shall be acceptable to the NRC, be based on the as-built, as-operated, and maintained plant, and reflect the operating experience of the plant as specified in RG 1.200. Methods to assess the risk from extending the completion times must be PRA methods accepted as part of this license amendment, or other methods approved by the NRC for generic use. If the licensee wishes to change its methods, and the change is outside the bounds of this license condition, the licensee will seek prior NRC approval via a license amendment.

(c) The first performance of the periodic measurement of CRE pressure, Specification 6.15.d, shall be within 36 months in a staggered test basis, plus the 138 days allowed by SR 4.0.2, as measured from November 13, 2006, which is the date of the most recent successful pressure measurement test, or within 138 days if not performed previously.

N. FATES3B Safety Analyses (Westinghouse Fuel Only)

FATES3B has been specifically approved for use for St. Lucie Unit 21icensing basis analyses based on FPL maintaining the more restrictive operational/design radial power fall-off curve limits as specified in Attachment 4 to FPL Letter L-2012-121, dated March 31,2012 as compared to the FATES3B analysis radial power fall-off curve limits. The radial power fall-off curve limits shall be verified jiNSERT~ each cycle as part of the Reload Safety Analysis Checklist (RSAC) process.
