8. Verify rod control system operability during power ascension. TVA should provide a pre-startup map to the NRC staff indicating the rodded fuel assemblies and a projected end of cycle burnup of each rodded assembly for the initial fuel cycle 6-months prior to fuel load.

(NRC safety evaluation dated May 3, 2010, ADAMS Accession No. ML101200035)

Response: Attachment 1 provides the requested pre-startup map indicating the rodded fuel assemblies and the projected end of cycle burnup of each rodded assembly for the initial fuel cycle.

14. TVA stated that the Unit 2 PTLR is included in the Unit 2 System Description for the Reactor Coolant System (WBN2-68-4001), which will be revised to reflect required revisions to the PTLR by September 17, 2010. (Section 5.3.1)

Response: Revision 1 (effective August 12, 2010) to the Unit 2 System Description for the Reactor Coolant System (WBN2-68-4001) was revised to reflect the required revisions to the Pressure and Test Limits Report (PTLR).

15. TVA should confirm to the NRC staff the completion of Primary Stress Corrosion Cracking (PWSCC) mitigation activities on the Alloy 600 dissimilar metal butt welds (DMBWs) in the primary loop piping. (Section 3.6.3)

Response: Unit 2 has completed the Mechanical Stress Improvement Process (MSIP).

Amendment 103 to the Unit 2 FSAR added five new paragraphs to the end of Section 5.5.3.3.1 (Material Corrosion/Erosion Evaluation) to describe this process.

Amendment 103 was submitted via TVA to NRC letter dated March 15, 2011, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) - Unit 2 - Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), Amendment 103.

18. Based on the extensive layup period of equipment within WBN Unit 2, the NRC staff must review, prior to fuel load, the assumptions used by TVA to re-establish a baseline for the qualified life of equipment. The purpose of the staffs review is to ensure that TVA has addressed the effects of environmental conditions on equipment during the layup period.

(Section 3.11.2.2)

Response: This item was addressed in the response to RAI 3.11 - EQ - 1. in TVA to NRC letter dated December 17, 2010, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Unit 2 -

Safety Evaluation Report Supplement 22 (SSER22) - Response to Requests for Additional Information (ADAMS Accession No. ML103540560).

20. Resolve whether or not routine maintenance activities should result in increasing the EQ of the 6.9 kV motors to Category I status in accordance with 10 CFR 50.49.

(Section 3.11.2.2.1).

Response: The refurbishment of the 6.9 kV motors for Unit 2 involved routine maintenance activities. These maintenance activities did not modify or repair the motor insulation system originally supplied by Westinghouse. However, review of the original qualification report indicates that the testing performed meets the requirements for a Category I qualification. Motors which only require routine maintenance will have their binders revised and will be re-classified as Category I.

In one case (Containment Spray Pump Motor), the maintenance activities determined the need to rewind the motor. The rewound motor insulation system is qualified in accordance with the EPRI motor rewind program which meets Category I criteria.

22. TVA must clarify its use of the term equivalent (e.g., identical, similar) regarding the replacement terminal blocks to the NRC staff. If the blocks are similar, then a similarity analysis should be completed and presented to the NRC for review. (Section 3.11.2.2.1)

Response: This item was addressed in the response to RAI 3.11 - EQ - 3.b. in TVA to NRC letter dated December 17, 2010, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Unit 2

- Safety Evaluation Report Supplement 22 (SSER22) - Response to Requests for Additional Information (ADAMS Accession No. ML103540560).

The response stated, For EQ applications, the replacement terminal blocks will be new GE CR151B terminal blocks certified to test reports that document qualification to NUREG-0588, Category I criteria.

TVA discussed this issue with the NRC during the ACRS meeting on February 24, 2011. The NRC staff accepted TVAs explanation of the term equivalent as provided above. Therefore, TVA considers this item to be closed.

23. Resolve whether or not TVAs reasoning for not upgrading the MSIV solenoid valves to Category I is a sound reason to the contrary, as specified in 10 CFR 50.49(l).

(Section 3.11.2.2.1)

Response: TVA will qualify the MSIV solenoids to the Category I criteria.

24. The NRC staff requires supporting documentation from TVA to justify its establishment of a mild environment threshold for total integrated dose of less than 1x103 rads for electronic components such as semiconductors or electronic components containing organic material.

(Section 3.11.2.2.1)

Response: Calculation A Review of Electronic Components in a Radiation Environment of  5x104 RADS is provided as Attachment 2.

26. For the scenario with an accident in one unit and concurrent shutdown of the second unit without offsite power, TVA stated that Unit 2 pre-operational testing will validate the diesel response to sequencing of loads on the Unit 2 emergency diesel generators (EDGs). The NRC staff will evaluate the status of this issue and will update the status of the EDG load response in a future SSER. (Section 8.1)

Response: There are four diesel generators (DGs) which supply onsite power to both Units 1 and 2 at Watts Bar Nuclear Plant. Each DG is dedicated to supply power to shutdown boards as follows:

x DG 1A-A feeds power into Unit 1, 6.9 kV shutdown board 1A-A x DG 2A-A feeds power into Unit 2, 6.9 kV shutdown board 2A-A x DG 1B-B feeds power into Unit 1, 6.9 kV shutdown board 1B-B x DG 2B-B feeds power into Unit 2, 6.9 kV shutdown board 2B-B Redundant trains of ESF loads for each unit are powered from each shutdown board. If offsite power is lost (LOOP), one train in each unit is capable of powering the loads required to mitigate the consequences of an accident or safely shut down the unit.

The following loading tables provide the blackout loading plus the common accident loads (load rejection, with an accident on the opposite unit and a loss of offsite power) for the safe shutdown of the non-accident unit. As discussed previously, these loadings are bounded by the accident loading.

27. TVA should provide a summary of margin studies based on scenarios described in Section 8.1 for CSSTs A, B, C, and D. (Section 8.2.2)

Response: TVA to NRC letter dated December 6, 2010, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN)

Unit 2 - Safety Evaluation Report Supplement 22 (SSER22) - Response to Requests for Additional Information, (ADAMS accession number ML103420569) included the response to RAI 8.2.2 - 1. That response stated, The loading for a dual unit trip (item a) is slightly less than the loading with one unit in accident and a spurious accident signal in the other unit.

Therefore, a separate load flow was not performed.

A separate load flow was performed for a dual unit shutdown resulting from an abnormal operational occurrence with and without offsite power. The resulting loading on CSSTs is provided in the following table:

(The above loading on CSST B is with one ESF train of each unit transferred to this transformer. CSST C is out of service; CSSTs D, A, and B are available.)

The second FA rating for CSSTs A and B is FUTURE.

The worst case margin for CSSTs C and D is 70% (X, Y winding) and 55% for primary winding. The worst case margin for CSSTs A and B is 27% (X, Y winding) and 18% for primary winding.

This additional analysis will be included in the next revision of AC Auxiliary Power System Analysis Calculation EDQ00099920070002.

28. TVA should provide to the NRC staff a detailed discussion showing that the load tap changer is able to maintain the 6.9 kV bus voltage control band given the normal and post-contingency transmission operating voltage band, bounding voltage drop on the grid, and plant conditions. (Section 8.2.2)

Response: For CSSTs C and D, the load tap changer (LTC) is set to regulate 6.9kV shutdown board voltage at 7,071V (102.5%). For CSSTs A and B, the LTC is set to regulate the voltage at the 6.9kV start buses (which can power the 6.9kV shutdown boards through the 6.9kV unit boards) at 7,071V (102.5%).

The upper and lower setpoints of the dead bands are 7,132V (103.4%) and 7,010V (101.6%), respectively. The dead band considered is +/-82.2V equivalent to the operating tolerances identified for these setpoints. The LTCs have the following parameters:

CSST C and D: Taps +/-10%, Tap Step 1.25%, Total No of Taps 17, Initial Time Delay 2 seconds, Operating Time 1 second. Taps are provided on each secondary winding.

CSST A and B: Taps +/-16.8%, Tap Step 1.05%, Total No of Taps 33, Initial Time Delay 1 second, Operating Time 2 seconds.

Taps are provided on the primary winding.

The analysis evaluates the 6.9-kV shutdown board minimum voltage requirements considering a maximum (bounding) grid voltage drop of 9 kV and a minimum grid voltage of 153kV and all plant conditions. Although the calculated shutdown board voltage falls below the degraded voltage relay dropout setpoint due to block start of ESF motors, it recovers above the degraded voltage relay reset setpoint in 5 seconds. The minimum time for the degraded voltage relays to isolate the offsite power from the 6.9kV Shutdown Boards is 8.5 seconds.

E1-7

ENCLOSURE 1 Response to Action Items From Appendix HH of NUREG-0847, Supplement 22 Tennessee Valley Authority - Watts Bar Nuclear Plant - Unit 2, Docket No. 50-391 Attachment 3 provides the Electrical Transient Analysis Program (ETAP) voltage recovery plots following a DBE on one unit while the other unit is in simultaneous orderly shutdown. These plots pictorially depict the LTC function at different times following a DBE.

During normal operation and post-accident with bounding grid voltage (153kV), the voltage on the 6.9kV shutdown boards is maintained within the LTC control band. As shown in the ETAP plots, the voltage on the shutdown boards falls below the degraded voltage relay setpoint due to block start of ESF motors but recovers to a value above the degraded voltage relay reset value before the degraded voltage relay timer times out so as not to isolate the shutdown boards from the offsite power. The source is therefore in compliance with GDC 17 and is able to supply offsite power to 1E loads with an accident in one unit, safe shutdown of the opposite unit, and the worst case single failure.

31. TVA should evaluate the re-sequencing of loads, with time delays involved, in the scenario of a LOCA followed by a delayed LOOP, and ensure that all loads will be sequenced within the time assumed in the accident analysis. (Section 8.3.1.11)

Response: LOCA followed by LOOP TVA to NRC letter dated December 6, 2010, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN)

Unit 2 - Safety Evaluation Report Supplement 22 (SSER22) - Response to Requests for Additional Information, (ADAMS accession number ML103420569) included the response to RAI 8.3.1.11. That response stated, A LOCA followed by a delayed LOOP is not a Design Basis Event for WBN.

The design basis for WBN assumes a simultaneous LOOP - LOCA. The Hydraulic Analysis does not support a LOCA with a delayed LOOP event; however, the logic is designed to ensure that loads are re-sequenced during a LOCA with a delayed LOOP, to prevent a block start on a diesel generator.

This logic does not impact the sequencing for the design bases event, simultaneous LOOP - LOCA.

LOOP - Delayed LOCA.

When the LOOP occurs, the diesel will start, based on detection by the Loss of Voltage relay. Loads which sequence on due to a blackout signal (Charging Pump, Auxiliary Feedwater, Essential Raw Cooling Water Pump, Closed Cooling, etc.) will begin sequencing on.

When a subsequent LOCA signal occurs, the diesel will remain running and connected to the Shutdown Board. Loads which are required for accident mitigation and which have previously sequenced on to the Shutdown Board, due to the LOOP, will remain running. Loads which are not required for accident mitigation will be tripped. Remaining loads required for accident mitigation, which have not been sequenced on at the time of the LOCA, will have their timers reset to 0 and will sequence on at the appropriate time for the LOCA signal.

E1-8

ENCLOSURE 1 Response to Action Items From Appendix HH of NUREG-0847, Supplement 22 Tennessee Valley Authority - Watts Bar Nuclear Plant - Unit 2, Docket No. 50-391 LOCA - Delayed LOOP When the LOCA occurs, the loads which are not running in normal operation will block start. At the same time, the diesels will start on the LOCA signal, but will not tie to the Shutdown Board.

When a subsequent LOOP occurs, all sequenced loads will be stripped from the board from a Loss of Voltage (approximately 86%) signal. Once the loss of voltage relay has reached its set point and the diesel is available, the diesel breaker will close and the sequence timers will begin to time. The first large motor (Centrifugal Charging Pump) connects at 5 seconds and is followed by the remaining accident required loads. This provides assurance that the voltage has decayed on the boards and no residual out of phase reconnection occurs.

33. TVA stated in Attachment 9 of its letter dated July 31, 2010, that certain design change notices (DCNs) are required or anticipated for completion of WBN Unit 2, and that these DCNs were unverified assumptions used in its analysis of the 125 V dc vital battery system.

Verification of completion of these DCNs to the NRC staff is necessary prior to issuance of the operating license. (Section 8.3.2.3)

Response: The applicable DCNs are as follow:

x DCN 53421 for the removal/abandonment of Reciprocating Charging Pump 2-MTR-62-101, supplied from 480V SHDN BD 2B1-B, Compt. 3B, has been issued.

x DCN 54636 for the cable modifications for Unit 2 AFWP Turbine Trip and Throttle Valve and Turbine Controls has been issued.

NRC will be notified when the physical work has been completed for these two DCNs.

34. TVA stated that the method of compliance with Phase I guidelines would be substantially similar to the current Unit 1 program and that a new Section 3.12 will be added to the Unit 2 FSAR that will be materially equivalent to Section 3.12 of the current Unit 1 FSAR.

(Section 9.1.4)

Response: Amendment 103 to the Unit 2 FSAR added new Section 3.12 (Control of Heavy Loads). This new section is materially equivalent to Section 3.12 of the Unit 1 UFSAR.

Amendment 103 was submitted via TVA to NRC letter dated March 15, 2011, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) - Unit 2 - Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), Amendment 103.

36. TVA should provide information to the NRC staff to enable verification that the SGBS meets the requirements and guidance specified in the SER or provide justification that the SGBS meets other standards that demonstrate conformance to GDC 1 and GDC 14.

(Section 10.4.8)

Response: Section 2.1.1, Safety Functions, of the SGB System Description Documents N3-15-4002 (Unit 1) and WBN2-15-4002 (Unit 2), state the following:

The SGB piping downstream of the containment isolation valves and located in the main stream valve vault room shall be TVA Class G. This piping is seismically supported to maintain the pressure boundary.

The SGB piping located in the turbine building shall be TVA Class H.

The Unit 1 and Unit 2 SGB flow diagrams, 1, 2-47W801-2, also recognize the same TVA Class G and Class H class breaks located downstream of the safety-related SGB containment isolation valves.

The SGB flow diagrams and System Description document that TVA Class G and Class H classifications located downstream of the safety-related containment isolation valves are consistent with the data that was deleted in FSAR Section 10.4.8.1, Steam Generator Blowdown System - Design Basis, Item 6 Component and Code listings described above. It is also noted that NRC Quality Group D classification is equivalent to TVA Class G and H classifications as stated in the NUREG 0847 Section 3.2.2, System Quality Group Classification. Therefore, the design requirements in NRC GDC-1, Quality Standards and Records, and NRC GDC-14, Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary are not challenged.

Amendment 104 to the Unit 2 FSAR will revise Table 3.2-2 to note that TVA Class G and H piping within the SGB System exists downstream of the safety-related containment isolation valves.

44. TVA should provide additional information to clarify how the initial and irradiated RTNDT was determined. (Section 5.3.1)

Response: This response clarifies how the initial and irradiated RTNDT values were determined for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor pressure vessel beltline materials.

Unit 2 FSAR Section 5.2.4.1 established that the vessel was designed to 1971 Addenda of the ASME Code, an edition that predates the requirements to determine the unirradiated RTNDT. (Those requirements were established in the Summer 1972 Addenda to the Code,Section III, Subarticle NB-2300, whereas the Watts Bar Unit 2 vessel was designed to an earlier version of the Code.) Because the tests performed to assess the adequacy of the fracture toughness predated the Summer 1972 Addenda to the Code, it was necessary to use the methods described in NRC Branch Technical Position (BTP) Materials Engineering Branch (MTEB) 5-2, Fracture Toughness Requirements for Older Plants. For the Watts Bar Unit 2 vessel, the vessel shell materials were tested by the vessel fabricator using both drop-weight E1-10

ENCLOSURE 1 Response to Action Items From Appendix HH of NUREG-0847, Supplement 22 Tennessee Valley Authority - Watts Bar Nuclear Plant - Unit 2, Docket No. 50-391 and Charpy impact test specimens. The drop-weight specimens were tested to determine the unirradiated nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTT) in accordance with ASTM E 208. In the ASME Code,Section III, Subarticle NB-2300, the NDTT is used with axial (weak) orientation Charpy test data to determine the initial (unirradiated) RTNDT. For Watts Bar Unit 2, the orientation of the Charpy impact test specimens was in the tangential (strong) orientation rather than in the axial (weak) orientation currently required in NB-2300 to determine the initial RTNDT. BTP MTEB 5-2 provides methods to determine the initial RTNDT using the drop-weight and Charpy impact test results generated for the Watts Bar Unit 2 vessel shell forgings and welds. In summary, both drop-weight and Charpy impact specimens in the tangential (strong) orientation were tested and the results were evaluated to determine the initial RTNDT following the methods in NRC BTP MTEB 5-2.

In addition to those tests performed by the vessel fabricator, unirradiated tests were performed on the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel surveillance program materials. Tests consisted of Charpy impact specimens from the intermediate shell forging and the core region metal that were oriented in both the tangential (strong) and axial (weak) orientations. When the surveillance program Charpy impact specimens are used with the drop-weight NDTT values obtained by the vessel fabricator, the initial RTNDT values obtained using NRC BTP MTEB 5-2 are found to be conservative.

The irradiated RTNDT, termed the Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART), is used to establish the Pressure-Temperature (P-T) limit curves for the vessel as documented in the Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR). The PTLR for Watts Bar Unit 2 is discussed in Unit 2 FSAR Section 5.2.4.3. The initial P-T limit curves are based on predictions of the effects of irradiation using the methods in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials. As post-irradiation test results become available from the evaluation of test specimens from the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel surveillance program, ASTM E 185-82, Standard Practice for Conducting Surveillance Tests for Light-Water Cooled Nuclear Power Reactor Vessels, uses those test results to assess the accuracy and conservatism of the predictions based on the methods of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. The reactor vessel irradiation surveillance program for Watts Bar Unit 2 is discussed in Unit 2 FSAR Section 5.4.3.6. The effect of irradiation is measured using the Charpy impact specimens. Note that there are no drop-weight test specimens irradiated as part of the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program. The drop-weight specimens are used only for tests on the unirradiated material to determine the drop-weight NDTT.

In summary, both drop-weight and Charpy impact specimens (strong orientation) were tested and the results were evaluated to determine the initial (unirradiated) RTNDT following the methods in NRC BTP MTEB 5-2.

Additional tests performed as part of the reactor vessel surveillance program using Charpy impact specimens (weak orientation for the intermediate shell forging), and those data obtained following the ASME Code,Section III, Subarticle NB-2300 demonstrated the initial RTNDT following the methods in E1-11

The irradiated RTNDT, termed the ART, will be determined using the methods in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.99.

As post-irradiation test results become available from the reactor vessel surveillance program materials (the intermediate shell forging and the core region weld metal), those data will be used to assess the accuracy and conservatism of the predictions.
