: Brent,
 
I have reviewed the document that you provided (ML22137A049) and I concur that the statements on pages 9 and 26 are referring to Supplemental Leak Collection and Release System (SLCRS) requirements that were previously retained in the Tech Specs following adoption of Amendments 278 and 161.
Furthermore, the statements on pages 9 and 26 are not SLCRS requirements that will be retained in the Tech Specs following implementation of the LAR to consolidate fuel decay time requirements. Please contact me if you have additional questions.

[External_Sender] Clarification on Beaver Valley Decay Time LAR (EPID L-2022-LLA-0071)

Brent,

I have reviewed the document that you provided (ML22137A049) and I concur that the statements on pages 9 and 26 are referring to Supplemental Leak Collection and Release System (SLCRS) requirements that were previously retained in the Tech Specs following adoption of Amendments 278 and 161.

Furthermore, the statements on pages 9 and 26 are not SLCRS requirements that will be retained in the Tech Specs following implementation of the LAR to consolidate fuel decay time requirements. Please contact me if you have additional questions.

Sincerely,

Jeffrey D. Morgan Energy Harbor Nuclear Corp.

As we discussed today during our call, will you please confirm the staffs understanding of the following sections of Energy Harbors license amendment request to consolidate fuel decay time requirements into a new LCO titled, Decay Time (ML22137A049):

On PDF page 9 of 129, starting in the second paragraph, the application states:

Therefore, the SLCRS requirements contained in LCO 3.7.12 are only applicable during refueling operations involving recently irradiated fuel. Although movement of recently irradiated fuel is not currently permitted, the requirements for SLCRS have been retained in the TS in the event these requirements are necessary to support fuel movement involving recently irradiated fuel at some point in the future.

When required in accordance with LCO 3.9.3.c.3, for Unit 1, one train of SLCRS is required to be operable and in operation to reduce the consequences of a fuel handling accident inside containment. This applicability applies only to Unit 1 in accordance with the provisions of LCO 3.9.3, "Containment Penetrations" when the containment purge and exhaust system penetrations are open coincident with fuel movement involving recently irradiated fuel assemblies within containment.

On PDF page 26 of 129, in the Basis section of the table for TS 3.7.12, Supplemental Leak Collection and Release System (SLCRS), the application states:

The SLCRS function has been retained in the TS in the event it is necessary to support the assumptions of a safety analysis for fuel movement involving recently irradiation fuel at some point in the future and would represent the primary success path for an FHA involving recently irradiated fuel.

Both of these sections state requirements for SLCRS have been retained in the TS, however, TS 3.7.12, Supplemental Leak Collection and Release System (SLCRS) and TS 3.9.3, Containment Penetrations, to include TS 3.9.3.c.3, are deleted in their entirety (PDF page 56 of 129 and page 67 of 129, respectively).

Please confirm that the statements made regarding SLCRS functions retained in the TS on the pages above are in reference to the discussion on PDF pages 4-5 of 129, which states:

BVPS does not have an FHA analysis to support movement of recently irradiated fuel and currently has a Licensing Requirements Manual (LRM) licensing requirement (LR), titled Decay Time, which prohibits fuel movement involving recently irradiated fuel.
