==SUBJECT:== | |||
==SUMMARY== | |||
OF MEETING OF DECEMBER 9, 1986, WITH AP&L PRESENTING A MANAGEMENT BRIEFING ADDRESSING THE PROGRESS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF AP&L AND AN0-1&2 DURING 1986 I Introduction At the licensee's request, AP&L met with the management of the Division of PWR Licensing - B at the NRC offices in Bethesda, Maryland, for the purpose of reviewing the progress, accomplishments and improvements made during 1986. | |||
The year 1986 was a busy year for the licensee in terms of AP&L general and performance improvements and NRC initiated improvements. Included during this year was a major reorganization, an INP0 evaluation, a NRC safety system functional inspection, a NRC environmental qualification inspection, an emergency feedwater system reliability evaluation and a post INP0 accreditation of training audit. They have completed many modifications to both units, both NPC initiated and AP&L in.itiated. Also several programs have been initiated to support the operation and continued improvement of their activities. The licensee expressed a certain amount of pride in their accomplishments and desired to share this with the NRC management. The attendees of this meetino are identified in Enclosure 1. Enclosure 2 is the copy of the licensee presentation materials. Enclosure 3 is the AP&L policy statement on application of 10 CFR 50.59. | |||
Discussion Enclosure 2 provides a very good documentation of the subjects discussed at the meeting. It was noted that AP&L needs to provide two responses to the results of the Safety Feature Functional Inspection. One is a response for additional information which the licensee indicated would be provided with the response to the civil penalty. The other is an updated LER on the EFW check valve issue, which is under preparation. | |||

POLICY STATEMENT ON 10CFR 50.59 PURPOSE OF STATEMENT To establish an AP&L policy on application and use of 10CFR 50.59 to be used by personnel and to achieve consistency in application. | |||
REGULATION 10CFR 59.59 - Changes, tests and experiments. | |||
(a)(1) The holder of a license authorizing operation of a production or utilization facility may (i) make changes ir the facility as described in the safety analysis report, (ii) make changes in the procedures as described in the safety analysis report, and (iii) conduct tests or experiments not described in the safety analysis report without prior commission approval, unless the proposed change, test or experiment involves a change in the technical specifications incorporated in the license or an unreviewed safety question. | |||
(a)(2) A proposed change, test or experiment shall be deemed to involve an unreviewed safety question (i) if the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report may be increased; or (ii) if a possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the safety analysis report may be created; or (iii) if the i | |||
margin of safety as defined in the basis for any technical specification is reduced. | |||
(b) The licensee shall maintain records of changes in the facility and of changes in procedures reade pursuant to this section, to the extent that such changes constitute changes in the facility as described in the safety analysis report or constitute changes in procedures as described in the safety analysis report. The licensee shall also maintain l records of tests and experiments carried out pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section. These records shall include a written safety evaluation which provides the bases for the determination that the change, test or experiment does not involve an unreviewed safety question. The licensee shall furnish to the appropriate NRC Regional | |||
; Office shown in Appendix 0 of Part 20 of this chapter with a copy to i | |||
the Director of Inspection and Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20055, annually or at such shorter intervals as may be specified in the license, a report containing a brief description of such changes, tests, and experiments, including a summary of the safety evaluation of each. Any report submitted by a licensee pursuant to this paragraph will be made a part of the public 06/27/86 | |||
record of the licensing proceeding. In addition to a signed original, 39 copies of each report of changes in a facility of the type described in 50,21(b) or 50.22 or a testing facility, and 12 copies of each report of changes in any other facility, shall be filed. This record of change in the facility shall be maintained until the date of termination of the license, and records of changes in procedures and records of tests and experiments shall be maintained for a period of five years. | |||
(c) The holder of a 1.icense authorizing operation of a production or utilitization facility who desires (1) a change in technical specifications or (2) to make a change in the facility or the procedures described in the safety analysis report or to conduct tests or experiments not described in the safety analysis report, which involve an unreviewed safety question or a change in technical specifications, shall submit an application for amendment of his license pursuant to S 50.90. | |||
DEFINITIONS | |||
" ACTIVITY" means the following: | |||
: 1. A modification (including temporary modifications) to: | |||
: a. the plant; | |||
: b. procedures; | |||
: c. methodologies (methods used to conduct an evolution even if not described in procedures); | |||
: d. analyses; | |||
: e. organization; | |||
: 2. A test; or | |||
: 3. An experiment. | |||
" BASIS" means the section of the Technical Specification entitled " bases." | |||
It also includes information in the Safety Evaluation Report issued by '!RC accompanying changes to the Technical Specifications. | |||
" CHANGE" means the following: | |||
If the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS discuss information pertinent to the ACTIVITY, and the ACTIVITY will result in that information being incorrect or inaccurate, or a requirement in those documents would nut be met, then the ACTIVITY is considered to result in the need to CHANGE the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS 06/27/86 | |||
"50.59 DETERMINATION" is the act of determining whether a proposed ACTIVITY will result in a CHANGE to the facility or procedures as described in the | |||
~ | |||
LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS. It is also to determine if a proposed ACTIVITY, that involves tests or experiments not described in the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT, could result in a degradation of the margins of safety during normal operations or anticipated transients, as described in the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT, or a degradation of the adequacy of structures, systems or components to prevent accidents or mitigate accident consequences as described in the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT. | |||
"58.59 EVALUATION" is the act of preparing a written safety evaluation on the impact of a proposed change, test or experiment for which the 59.59 DETERMINATION concluded that an evaluation was required. The purpose of the 59.59 EVALUATION is to determine if an unreviewed safety question is involved. If so, NRC review and approval will be required prior to proceeding. | |||
"58.59 REVIEW" is the process of performing the 56.59 DETERMINATION, 50.59 EVALUATION (if required); and the applicable reviews by the Plant Safety Committee, and Safety Review Committee, and AP&L Management. | |||
" LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS" means: | |||
In general the term Licer. sing Basis Documents means the formal documented records which form the basis used by the NRC Licensing branch (NRR) in order to grant, amend or modify the Operating License. | |||
These may include certain licensing related correspondence from AP&L to NRC or Safety Evaluation Reports from NRC which were used to justify granting of the origirial license, or amending or modifying the Operating License. | |||
Specifically the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS applicable to 50.59 reviews are: | |||
: a. the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT | |||
: b. the OPERATING LICENSE "0PERATING LICENSE" means: | |||
, a. The Operating License issued by NRC (one for each unit) | |||
: b. The Technical Specifications (Appendix A to the Operating License) | |||
: c. Orders (including Confirmatory Orders) issued by NRC which modify the License. | |||
: d. NRC Safety Evaluation Reports issued in support of the original Operating License and subsequent amendments. | |||
06/27/86 | |||
. a | |||
" SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT" means: | |||
: a. The multi-volume document entitled Safety Analysis Report (SAR). There is one for each unit. | |||
: b. The Emergency Plan (referenced in Section 12.3.1 of the ANO-1 SAR, and Section 13.2 of the ANO-2 SAR). * | |||
: c. The QA Manual for Operations (referenced in Section 1.6 of the ANO-1 SAR, and Chapter 17 of the ANO-2 SAR). * | |||
*10CFR50.54 specifies additional review requirements for the Emergency Plan, the QA Manual, and the Security Plan. Those review requirements are not covered by this policy. | |||
PURPOSE OF THE REGULATION The purpose of 10CFR 59.59 is to provide criteria to be used by a licensee in determining whether an ACTIVITY may be conducted without prior NRC approval or whether NRC approval must be obtained prior to conducting the ACTIVITY. It also establishes reporting requirements for notification of the NRC of ACTIVITIES (allowed by 59.59) which were conducted without prior NRC approval. | |||
WHEN NRC PRIOR REVIEW IS REQUIRED NRC review and approval _i_s, s required prior to conducting an ACTIVITY which would result in a change to the technical specifications or the existence of an unreviewed safety question. | |||
WHEN NRC PRIOR REVIEW IS NOT REQUIRED , | |||
NRC review and approval is,not required if the ACTIVITY to be conducted does not result in a change to the technical specifications or the existence of l an unreviewed safety question. | |||
WHEN A 50.59 REVIEW IS REQUIRED A 59.59 DETERMINATION is required prior to conducting an ACTIVITY. | |||
l A 59.59 EVALUATION may be required prior to conducting an ACTIVITY depending on the outcome of the 59.59 DETERMINATION. | |||
METHODOLOGY OF 59.59 REVIEWS Prior to conducting an ACTIVITY, a 59.59 DETERMINATION will be conducted and documented. Documentation of the review will consist of an indication of the portions of the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS reviewed and whether any CHANGES to those documents are required. | |||
1 06/27/86 1 | |||
o - ! | |||
If no CHANGES to the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS are indicated and the ACTIVITY conforms to the general requirements of the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS, the 50.59 DETERMINATION is negative, a 50.59 EVALUATION is not required, and the ACTIVITY may proceed without prior NRC notification, review, and/or approval. | |||
If the 58.59 DETERMINATION indicates that the ACTIVITY would make information in a LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENT no longer true or accurate or would violate a requirement stated in that document, a 59.59 EVALUATION must be conducted prior to conducting the ACTIVITY. | |||
The 59.59 EVALUATION will determine whether the result of the ACTIVITY is or is not within the basis on which the OPERATING LICENSE was issued and continued in effect by NRC. | |||
The 59.59 EVALUATION must be written and must provide the basis for determination that the proposed ACTIVITY does or does not involve an unreviewed safety question. A simple statement of conclusion in itself is not sufficient; however, depending upon the significance of the CHANGE, the EVALUATION may be brief. | |||
If the 58.59 EVALUATION indicates that the ACTIVITY is within the basis on whicn the OPERATING LICENSE was issued and continued by the NRC, the ACTIVITY may proceed without prior NRC notification, review, and/cr approval. | |||
If the 59.59 EVALUATION indicates that the ACTIVITY is not within the basis on which the operating license was issued and continued in effect by the NRC (an unreviewed safety question exists), or a CHANGE to the Technical Specifications is required, NRC approval must be obtained prior to conducting the ACTIVITY. | |||
WHO CAN CONDUCT A 50.59 REVIEW Anyone within AP&L (who is qualified and designated as such by the PSC or SRC) may conduct a 59.59 REVIEW. Outside resources (such as B&W, CE, etc.) | |||
may be used as an input to the 50.59 REVIEW. The 58.59 REVIEW and its results must follow the established approval process. | |||
50.59 REVIEWER QUALIFI(fTION An individual may be qualified to conduct 50.59 REVIEWS as follows: | |||
l | |||
: 1. Attend Training; and, | |||
: 2. Pass a Certification Exam; and, | |||
: 3. Meet the minimum experience requirements of ANSI /ANS-3.1-1981 for their function. A minimum of 6 months work experience related to ANO is also required for those individuals for which ANSI /ANS-3.1-1981 does not require plant specific experience. | |||
Requalification is required every two years. | |||
l 06/27/86 | |||
~_ . | |||
NOTE: The designated 50.59 REVIEWER should seek assistance from other designated 50.59 REVIEWERS when the scope of the 50.59 REVIEW extends beyond his area of expertise. | |||
NOTE: At the discretion of the Plant Safety Committee or Safety Review Committee, certification may bc suspended or revoked. | |||
Notification of such action, including minimum requirements for recertification, shall be issued to the individual's supervisor for resolution. | |||
APPROVAL OF 59.59 REVIEWS The Plant Safety Committee (PSC) is required to review 50.59 DETERMINATIONS on ACTIVITIES that affect nuclear safety and all 50.59 EVALUATIONS prior to their implementation. The results of the 59.59 REVIEW are provided to the management approval authorities specified in the Technical Specifications together with a recommendation for approval or disapproval. In the case of tem,00rary procedure changes, PSC review and Management approval can be after implementation (up to 14 days), provided the change did not involve intent. | |||
A similar exception i, allowed for temporary modifications such as jumpers and lifted leads. | |||
The Safety Review Committee is responsible for review of the results of 59.59 EVALUATIONS to verify that the ACTIVITIES did not constitute an unreviewed safety question. This review is not required to take place prior to implementation but should be completed within a reasonably short interval (30-60 days) following PSC review. | |||
REPORTING OF 50.59 REVIEWS TO THE NRC The Nuclear Engineering & Licensing Section is responsible for submittal of a report of all ACTIVITIES that require a 50.59 EVALUATION (conducted without prior NRC review and approval) to the NRC on an annual basis. This may be accomplished via a special report or via the annual SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT update. | |||
IMPLEMENTATION GUIDANCE Attachment 1 " Guidance for Implementation of 10CFR 50.59" is adopted for use by AP&L personnel in conducting 59.59 REVIEWS. | |||
06/27/86 | |||
: o. | |||
* 1 ATTACHMENT 1 GUIDANCE FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF 10 CFR 50.59 PURPOSE This document provides guidance on implementation of AP&L's Policy Statement on 10 CFR 50.59. The bulk of this guidance is taken directly from NRC's internal guidance on 10 CFR 50.59 with some changes specific to AP&L. | |||
DISCUSSION 10 CFR 50.59 is composed of three essential parts: | |||
: a. Paragraph (a)(1) is permissive in that it allows changes to be made to ANO and its operation as described in the Safety Analysis Report (SAR) without prior NRC approval, provided change in Technical Specifications (TS) is not involved or an "unreviewed safety question" does not exist. | |||
: b. Paragraph (b) requires record maintenance of changes made under | |||
! the authority of Paragraph (a)(1). These records must include a written safety evaluation which provides the basis for determining whether an unreviewed safety question exists. | |||
: c. Paragraph (c) requires that proposed changes in Technical Specifications be submitted to the NRC as an application for license amendment. Likewise, proposed changes to the facility or procedures and the proposed conduct of tests which involve an unreviewed safety question must be submitted to the NRC as an 4 application for license amendment. | |||
Within the context of this guidance, any proposed cnange to a system or procedure, as described in the SAR, either by text or drawing should be reviewed to determine whether it involves an unreviewed safety question. | |||
Changes may involve an unreviewed safety question even though they are "beyond the second isolation valves," or they do not serve a normal safety-related function, since alteration may introduce an unreviewed safety question. | |||
When performing 10CFR50.59 DETERMINATIONS, one should decide if the LICENSING BASES DOCUMENTS are affected. In reaching this decision, one should ensure that generally applicable requirements (e.g., Fire Protection, Environmental Qualification, Seismic, drainage, etc.) are met. As an example, an ACTIVITY could be proposed to add a non-safety grade room cooler which would not affect LICENSING BASES DOCUMENTS. However, if the design did not conform to applicable seismic or II/I requirements, the ACTIVITY could involve an unreviewed safety question and a 50.59 EVALUATION would be required. .. | |||
l I | |||
A-1 | |||
9 s l | |||
Maintenance activities which do not result in a change to a system (permanent or temporary), or which replace components with replacement parts procured to the same (or equivalent) purchase specification, do not normally require a written 50.59 evaluation to meet 10 CFR 50.59 requirements. However, if components described in the SAR are removed, or their function is altered, or if substitute components are utilized, or if changes remain following completion of a maintenance activity, an evaluation is normally required to meet the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59 and the change must be reported to the NRC as required by 10 CFR 50.59(b). | |||
In all cases requiring a written 50.59 evaluation, the evaluation must provide the basis for determination that the proposed change does or does not involve an unreviewed safety question. A simple statement of conclusion in itself is not sufficient; however, depending upon the significance of the change, the 50.59 evaluation may be quite brief. | |||
EXAMPLES Listed Below are examples of various changes to facilities, systems, procedures, and tests which are typical of those requiring a 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation and those which do not require an evaluation under the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59. | |||
: a. Changes in the Facility As Described in the Safety Analysis Report. This pertains to any changes in the facility which would, if accomplished, make information in the SAR no longer true or accurate or would violate a requirement stated in the SAR. This would apply to components, systems, and structures described either in the written portion of the SAR or in the drawings contained therein. Contrasting examples of each case are: | |||
(1) Components. Replacement of a thermocouple in the diesel high-bearing temperature automatic shutdown circuitry (if such a component were described in the SAR) with one made by the same manufacturer, but encompassing different response characteristics, would require a 50.59 evaluation if those characteristics were described in the SAR. | |||
On the other hand, replacement of a thermocouple in the diesel high-bearing temperature automatic shutdown circuitry (if such a component were described in the SAR) with one encompassing equivalent response characteristics, but made by a different manufacturer, would not require an evaluation under the requirements of 10-CFR 50.59 unless the manufacturer was named in the SAR. | |||
Replacement of a Rosemount 1153 pressure transmitter with another 1153 pressure transmitter of the same type would not require an evaluation. | |||
k Regla/ cement of a Rosemount 1153 pressure transmitter with a psemount1154pressuretransmitterwouldrequireawritten b0.59 evaluation to determine that the response characteristics of the new transmitter are acceptable. | |||
A-2 | |||
a v Replacement of a LPSI motor with an identical motor would not require a written safety evaluation. | |||
Replacement of a LPSI motor with another with different characteristics (e.g., horsepower, rpm, head requirements, etc.) would require a written 50.59 evaluation. | |||
(2) Systems. Modifications of the diesel shutdown circuitry (described in the SAR) to provide an automatic diesel shutdown on high-bearing temperature (shutdown feature not described ir, application) would require an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59 if methods of initiating automatic diesel shutdown are described in the SAR. On the other hand, if the methods of initiating automatic diesel shutdown are not described in the SAR, specific automatic shutdown features may be rendered inoperable or new ones added without the conduct of 50.59 evaluation. | |||
(3) Structures. The erection or deletion of any concrete block shield wall within the scope of drawings included in the SAR would require a 50.59 evaluation. If such walls were not within the scope of any drawings included in the SAR, then no evaluation would be required except in the case of deletion of a wall specifically mentioned in SAR text or erection of a wall in a location where the SAR says there are no wsils or where SAR described features would be undermined. | |||
(4) Jumpers / Lifted Leads. | |||
: 1. If it is determined that use of a jumper / lifted lead results in a change to the facility, as described in the SAR, then a safety evaluation is required. This approach should apply to all types of temporary modifications. Generally, if a plant system is changed by use of jumpers / lifted leads so that it will function differently than described in the SAR, a 50.59 evaluation would be required. | |||
On the other hand, use of jumpers / lifted leads that result in plant conditions already analyzed and approved by NRC would not require a 50.59 evaluation. For example, bypassing protection channels in a manner already described in the SAR would not constitute an unreviewed safety question and would not require an evaluation under the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59. It is expected that only a small percentage of jumpers / lifted leads will require a written 50.59 evaluation. | |||
A-3 | |||
a w s> | |||
: b. Changes in Procedures As Described.in the SAR. This pertains not only to procedures discussed in the initial operations and organizational chapters of the SAR, but also to other procedural-type commitments, such as the Emergency Plan and modes and sequences of plant operation described in the SAR. If a procedure results in a deviation from the steps listed in the SAR or will result in a change to a system as described in the SAR, then a 50.59 evaluation should be performed. Contrasting examples of the above follow. | |||
(1) If in the description of the radioactive waste system in the SAR, it is stated that the Sh'ift Supervisor will authorize all radioactive liquid releases, an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59 would be required before assigning this function to another individual. On the other hand, if the SAR merely states that radioactive liquid releases will be authorized as detailed by plant procedures, the licensee's redesignation of the authorization function would not require a 50.59 evaluation. | |||
(2) If the reactor startup procedure, as described in the SAR, contains eight fundamental sequences, decisi,on to eliminate one of the sequences would require an evaluation to meet the 10 CFR 50.59 requirements. On the other hand, if the eight fundamental sequences were consolidated but did not alter the basic functions performed, it would not be necessary to conduct a 50.59 evaluation. | |||
: c. Conduct Tests and Experiments Not Described in the SAR. This pertains to the performance of an operation not described in the SAR which could have an adverse effect on safety-related systems. | |||
Contrasting examples of such tests or experiments are: | |||
(1) Some plants in the startup testing program have performed a deboration to critical with all rods inserted. Since this test is performed without deference to the "one stuck rod criterion," an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59 would be required if the test is not delineated in the SAR. Since this test may decrease the margin of safety defined in the TS basis, it should in most instances, be classified as an unreviewed safety question. On the other hand, a test to demonstrate the calibration of the nuclear l instrumentation system by performance of a secondary plant | |||
; heat balance would not require a 50.59 safety evaluation, even if such a test was not delineated in the SAR, since the test does not involve an abnormal mode of operation. | |||
l l | |||
l l | |||
l l | |||
A-4 | |||
a > q , _ | |||
(2) A test to determine if the boric acid evaporator may also be used for concentration of the steam generator blowdown effluent (function not described in the SAR) would require an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59, since secondary system chemicals could possibly have a deleterious effect on some components within the reactor coolant pressure boundary. On the other hand, an experiment to determine the decontamination factor of the liquid waste concentrator with influent activities of 10 2 Ci/ml and 10 5 Ci/ml would not require a 50.59 evaluation since such an experiment would not represent departure from normal operational modes. | |||
Tests and experiments not described in the Safety Analysis Report includes only those tests and experiments that would have been described in the Safety Analysis Report had they been anticipated at the time the Safety Analysis Report was written. Such tests and experiments would be restricted to those which could degrade the margins of safety during normal operations or anticipated transients, or degrade the adequacy of structures, systems or components to prevent accidents or 1 | |||
mitigate accident consequences. | |||
Test - The process of submitting a statement to such conditions or operations as will lead to its proof or disproof, or to its acceptance or rejection. | |||
Experiment - An operation carried out under controlled conditions in order to discover an unknown effect. | |||

SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF MEETING OF DECEMBER 9, 1986, WITH AP&L PRESENTING A MANAGEMENT BRIEFING ADDRESSING THE PROGRESS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF AP&L AND AN0-1&2 DURING 1986 I Introduction At the licensee's request, AP&L met with the management of the Division of PWR Licensing - B at the NRC offices in Bethesda, Maryland, for the purpose of reviewing the progress, accomplishments and improvements made during 1986.
The year 1986 was a busy year for the licensee in terms of AP&L general and performance improvements and NRC initiated improvements. Included during this year was a major reorganization, an INP0 evaluation, a NRC safety system functional inspection, a NRC environmental qualification inspection, an emergency feedwater system reliability evaluation and a post INP0 accreditation of training audit. They have completed many modifications to both units, both NPC initiated and AP&L in.itiated. Also several programs have been initiated to support the operation and continued improvement of their activities. The licensee expressed a certain amount of pride in their accomplishments and desired to share this with the NRC management. The attendees of this meetino are identified in Enclosure 1. Enclosure 2 is the copy of the licensee presentation materials. Enclosure 3 is the AP&L policy statement on application of 10 CFR 50.59.
Discussion Enclosure 2 provides a very good documentation of the subjects discussed at the meeting. It was noted that AP&L needs to provide two responses to the results of the Safety Feature Functional Inspection. One is a response for additional information which the licensee indicated would be provided with the response to the civil penalty. The other is an updated LER on the EFW check valve issue, which is under preparation.

POLICY STATEMENT ON 10CFR 50.59 PURPOSE OF STATEMENT To establish an AP&L policy on application and use of 10CFR 50.59 to be used by personnel and to achieve consistency in application.
REGULATION 10CFR 59.59 - Changes, tests and experiments.
(a)(1) The holder of a license authorizing operation of a production or utilization facility may (i) make changes ir the facility as described in the safety analysis report, (ii) make changes in the procedures as described in the safety analysis report, and (iii) conduct tests or experiments not described in the safety analysis report without prior commission approval, unless the proposed change, test or experiment involves a change in the technical specifications incorporated in the license or an unreviewed safety question.
(a)(2) A proposed change, test or experiment shall be deemed to involve an unreviewed safety question (i) if the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report may be increased; or (ii) if a possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the safety analysis report may be created; or (iii) if the i
margin of safety as defined in the basis for any technical specification is reduced.
(b) The licensee shall maintain records of changes in the facility and of changes in procedures reade pursuant to this section, to the extent that such changes constitute changes in the facility as described in the safety analysis report or constitute changes in procedures as described in the safety analysis report. The licensee shall also maintain l records of tests and experiments carried out pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section. These records shall include a written safety evaluation which provides the bases for the determination that the change, test or experiment does not involve an unreviewed safety question. The licensee shall furnish to the appropriate NRC Regional
- Office shown in Appendix 0 of Part 20 of this chapter with a copy to i
the Director of Inspection and Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20055, annually or at such shorter intervals as may be specified in the license, a report containing a brief description of such changes, tests, and experiments, including a summary of the safety evaluation of each. Any report submitted by a licensee pursuant to this paragraph will be made a part of the public 06/27/86
record of the licensing proceeding. In addition to a signed original, 39 copies of each report of changes in a facility of the type described in 50,21(b) or 50.22 or a testing facility, and 12 copies of each report of changes in any other facility, shall be filed. This record of change in the facility shall be maintained until the date of termination of the license, and records of changes in procedures and records of tests and experiments shall be maintained for a period of five years.
(c) The holder of a 1.icense authorizing operation of a production or utilitization facility who desires (1) a change in technical specifications or (2) to make a change in the facility or the procedures described in the safety analysis report or to conduct tests or experiments not described in the safety analysis report, which involve an unreviewed safety question or a change in technical specifications, shall submit an application for amendment of his license pursuant to S 50.90.
DEFINITIONS
" ACTIVITY" means the following:
- 1. A modification (including temporary modifications) to:
- a. the plant;
- b. procedures;
- c. methodologies (methods used to conduct an evolution even if not described in procedures);
- d. analyses;
- e. organization;
- 2. A test; or
- 3. An experiment.
" BASIS" means the section of the Technical Specification entitled " bases."
It also includes information in the Safety Evaluation Report issued by '!RC accompanying changes to the Technical Specifications.
" CHANGE" means the following:
If the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS discuss information pertinent to the ACTIVITY, and the ACTIVITY will result in that information being incorrect or inaccurate, or a requirement in those documents would nut be met, then the ACTIVITY is considered to result in the need to CHANGE the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS 06/27/86
"50.59 DETERMINATION" is the act of determining whether a proposed ACTIVITY will result in a CHANGE to the facility or procedures as described in the
~
LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS. It is also to determine if a proposed ACTIVITY, that involves tests or experiments not described in the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT, could result in a degradation of the margins of safety during normal operations or anticipated transients, as described in the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT, or a degradation of the adequacy of structures, systems or components to prevent accidents or mitigate accident consequences as described in the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT.
"58.59 EVALUATION" is the act of preparing a written safety evaluation on the impact of a proposed change, test or experiment for which the 59.59 DETERMINATION concluded that an evaluation was required. The purpose of the 59.59 EVALUATION is to determine if an unreviewed safety question is involved. If so, NRC review and approval will be required prior to proceeding.
"58.59 REVIEW" is the process of performing the 56.59 DETERMINATION, 50.59 EVALUATION (if required); and the applicable reviews by the Plant Safety Committee, and Safety Review Committee, and AP&L Management.
" LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS" means:
In general the term Licer. sing Basis Documents means the formal documented records which form the basis used by the NRC Licensing branch (NRR) in order to grant, amend or modify the Operating License.
These may include certain licensing related correspondence from AP&L to NRC or Safety Evaluation Reports from NRC which were used to justify granting of the origirial license, or amending or modifying the Operating License.
Specifically the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS applicable to 50.59 reviews are:
- a. the SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT
- b. the OPERATING LICENSE "0PERATING LICENSE" means:
, a. The Operating License issued by NRC (one for each unit)
- b. The Technical Specifications (Appendix A to the Operating License)
- c. Orders (including Confirmatory Orders) issued by NRC which modify the License.
- d. NRC Safety Evaluation Reports issued in support of the original Operating License and subsequent amendments.
06/27/86
. a
" SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT" means:
- a. The multi-volume document entitled Safety Analysis Report (SAR). There is one for each unit.
- b. The Emergency Plan (referenced in Section 12.3.1 of the ANO-1 SAR, and Section 13.2 of the ANO-2 SAR). *
- c. The QA Manual for Operations (referenced in Section 1.6 of the ANO-1 SAR, and Chapter 17 of the ANO-2 SAR). *
- 10CFR50.54 specifies additional review requirements for the Emergency Plan, the QA Manual, and the Security Plan. Those review requirements are not covered by this policy.
PURPOSE OF THE REGULATION The purpose of 10CFR 59.59 is to provide criteria to be used by a licensee in determining whether an ACTIVITY may be conducted without prior NRC approval or whether NRC approval must be obtained prior to conducting the ACTIVITY. It also establishes reporting requirements for notification of the NRC of ACTIVITIES (allowed by 59.59) which were conducted without prior NRC approval.
WHEN NRC PRIOR REVIEW IS REQUIRED NRC review and approval _i_s, s required prior to conducting an ACTIVITY which would result in a change to the technical specifications or the existence of an unreviewed safety question.
WHEN NRC PRIOR REVIEW IS NOT REQUIRED ,
NRC review and approval is,not required if the ACTIVITY to be conducted does not result in a change to the technical specifications or the existence of l an unreviewed safety question.
WHEN A 50.59 REVIEW IS REQUIRED A 59.59 DETERMINATION is required prior to conducting an ACTIVITY.
l A 59.59 EVALUATION may be required prior to conducting an ACTIVITY depending on the outcome of the 59.59 DETERMINATION.
METHODOLOGY OF 59.59 REVIEWS Prior to conducting an ACTIVITY, a 59.59 DETERMINATION will be conducted and documented. Documentation of the review will consist of an indication of the portions of the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS reviewed and whether any CHANGES to those documents are required.
1 06/27/86 1
o - !
If no CHANGES to the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS are indicated and the ACTIVITY conforms to the general requirements of the LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENTS, the 50.59 DETERMINATION is negative, a 50.59 EVALUATION is not required, and the ACTIVITY may proceed without prior NRC notification, review, and/or approval.
If the 58.59 DETERMINATION indicates that the ACTIVITY would make information in a LICENSING BASIS DOCUMENT no longer true or accurate or would violate a requirement stated in that document, a 59.59 EVALUATION must be conducted prior to conducting the ACTIVITY.
The 59.59 EVALUATION will determine whether the result of the ACTIVITY is or is not within the basis on which the OPERATING LICENSE was issued and continued in effect by NRC.
The 59.59 EVALUATION must be written and must provide the basis for determination that the proposed ACTIVITY does or does not involve an unreviewed safety question. A simple statement of conclusion in itself is not sufficient; however, depending upon the significance of the CHANGE, the EVALUATION may be brief.
If the 58.59 EVALUATION indicates that the ACTIVITY is within the basis on whicn the OPERATING LICENSE was issued and continued by the NRC, the ACTIVITY may proceed without prior NRC notification, review, and/cr approval.
If the 59.59 EVALUATION indicates that the ACTIVITY is not within the basis on which the operating license was issued and continued in effect by the NRC (an unreviewed safety question exists), or a CHANGE to the Technical Specifications is required, NRC approval must be obtained prior to conducting the ACTIVITY.
WHO CAN CONDUCT A 50.59 REVIEW Anyone within AP&L (who is qualified and designated as such by the PSC or SRC) may conduct a 59.59 REVIEW. Outside resources (such as B&W, CE, etc.)
may be used as an input to the 50.59 REVIEW. The 58.59 REVIEW and its results must follow the established approval process.
50.59 REVIEWER QUALIFI(fTION An individual may be qualified to conduct 50.59 REVIEWS as follows:
l
- 1. Attend Training; and,
- 2. Pass a Certification Exam; and,
- 3. Meet the minimum experience requirements of ANSI /ANS-3.1-1981 for their function. A minimum of 6 months work experience related to ANO is also required for those individuals for which ANSI /ANS-3.1-1981 does not require plant specific experience.
Requalification is required every two years.
l 06/27/86
~_ .
NOTE: The designated 50.59 REVIEWER should seek assistance from other designated 50.59 REVIEWERS when the scope of the 50.59 REVIEW extends beyond his area of expertise.
NOTE: At the discretion of the Plant Safety Committee or Safety Review Committee, certification may bc suspended or revoked.
Notification of such action, including minimum requirements for recertification, shall be issued to the individual's supervisor for resolution.
APPROVAL OF 59.59 REVIEWS The Plant Safety Committee (PSC) is required to review 50.59 DETERMINATIONS on ACTIVITIES that affect nuclear safety and all 50.59 EVALUATIONS prior to their implementation. The results of the 59.59 REVIEW are provided to the management approval authorities specified in the Technical Specifications together with a recommendation for approval or disapproval. In the case of tem,00rary procedure changes, PSC review and Management approval can be after implementation (up to 14 days), provided the change did not involve intent.
A similar exception i, allowed for temporary modifications such as jumpers and lifted leads.
The Safety Review Committee is responsible for review of the results of 59.59 EVALUATIONS to verify that the ACTIVITIES did not constitute an unreviewed safety question. This review is not required to take place prior to implementation but should be completed within a reasonably short interval (30-60 days) following PSC review.
REPORTING OF 50.59 REVIEWS TO THE NRC The Nuclear Engineering & Licensing Section is responsible for submittal of a report of all ACTIVITIES that require a 50.59 EVALUATION (conducted without prior NRC review and approval) to the NRC on an annual basis. This may be accomplished via a special report or via the annual SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT update.
IMPLEMENTATION GUIDANCE Attachment 1 " Guidance for Implementation of 10CFR 50.59" is adopted for use by AP&L personnel in conducting 59.59 REVIEWS.
06/27/86
- o.
- 1 ATTACHMENT 1 GUIDANCE FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF 10 CFR 50.59 PURPOSE This document provides guidance on implementation of AP&L's Policy Statement on 10 CFR 50.59. The bulk of this guidance is taken directly from NRC's internal guidance on 10 CFR 50.59 with some changes specific to AP&L.
DISCUSSION 10 CFR 50.59 is composed of three essential parts:
- a. Paragraph (a)(1) is permissive in that it allows changes to be made to ANO and its operation as described in the Safety Analysis Report (SAR) without prior NRC approval, provided change in Technical Specifications (TS) is not involved or an "unreviewed safety question" does not exist.
- b. Paragraph (b) requires record maintenance of changes made under
! the authority of Paragraph (a)(1). These records must include a written safety evaluation which provides the basis for determining whether an unreviewed safety question exists.
- c. Paragraph (c) requires that proposed changes in Technical Specifications be submitted to the NRC as an application for license amendment. Likewise, proposed changes to the facility or procedures and the proposed conduct of tests which involve an unreviewed safety question must be submitted to the NRC as an 4 application for license amendment.
Within the context of this guidance, any proposed cnange to a system or procedure, as described in the SAR, either by text or drawing should be reviewed to determine whether it involves an unreviewed safety question.
Changes may involve an unreviewed safety question even though they are "beyond the second isolation valves," or they do not serve a normal safety-related function, since alteration may introduce an unreviewed safety question.
When performing 10CFR50.59 DETERMINATIONS, one should decide if the LICENSING BASES DOCUMENTS are affected. In reaching this decision, one should ensure that generally applicable requirements (e.g., Fire Protection, Environmental Qualification, Seismic, drainage, etc.) are met. As an example, an ACTIVITY could be proposed to add a non-safety grade room cooler which would not affect LICENSING BASES DOCUMENTS. However, if the design did not conform to applicable seismic or II/I requirements, the ACTIVITY could involve an unreviewed safety question and a 50.59 EVALUATION would be required. ..

Maintenance activities which do not result in a change to a system (permanent or temporary), or which replace components with replacement parts procured to the same (or equivalent) purchase specification, do not normally require a written 50.59 evaluation to meet 10 CFR 50.59 requirements. However, if components described in the SAR are removed, or their function is altered, or if substitute components are utilized, or if changes remain following completion of a maintenance activity, an evaluation is normally required to meet the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59 and the change must be reported to the NRC as required by 10 CFR 50.59(b).
In all cases requiring a written 50.59 evaluation, the evaluation must provide the basis for determination that the proposed change does or does not involve an unreviewed safety question. A simple statement of conclusion in itself is not sufficient; however, depending upon the significance of the change, the 50.59 evaluation may be quite brief.
EXAMPLES Listed Below are examples of various changes to facilities, systems, procedures, and tests which are typical of those requiring a 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation and those which do not require an evaluation under the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59.
- a. Changes in the Facility As Described in the Safety Analysis Report. This pertains to any changes in the facility which would, if accomplished, make information in the SAR no longer true or accurate or would violate a requirement stated in the SAR. This would apply to components, systems, and structures described either in the written portion of the SAR or in the drawings contained therein. Contrasting examples of each case are:
(1) Components. Replacement of a thermocouple in the diesel high-bearing temperature automatic shutdown circuitry (if such a component were described in the SAR) with one made by the same manufacturer, but encompassing different response characteristics, would require a 50.59 evaluation if those characteristics were described in the SAR.
On the other hand, replacement of a thermocouple in the diesel high-bearing temperature automatic shutdown circuitry (if such a component were described in the SAR) with one encompassing equivalent response characteristics, but made by a different manufacturer, would not require an evaluation under the requirements of 10-CFR 50.59 unless the manufacturer was named in the SAR.
Replacement of a Rosemount 1153 pressure transmitter with another 1153 pressure transmitter of the same type would not require an evaluation.
k Regla/ cement of a Rosemount 1153 pressure transmitter with a psemount1154pressuretransmitterwouldrequireawritten b0.59 evaluation to determine that the response characteristics of the new transmitter are acceptable.

a v Replacement of a LPSI motor with an identical motor would not require a written safety evaluation.
Replacement of a LPSI motor with another with different characteristics (e.g., horsepower, rpm, head requirements, etc.) would require a written 50.59 evaluation.
(2) Systems. Modifications of the diesel shutdown circuitry (described in the SAR) to provide an automatic diesel shutdown on high-bearing temperature (shutdown feature not described ir, application) would require an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59 if methods of initiating automatic diesel shutdown are described in the SAR. On the other hand, if the methods of initiating automatic diesel shutdown are not described in the SAR, specific automatic shutdown features may be rendered inoperable or new ones added without the conduct of 50.59 evaluation.
(3) Structures. The erection or deletion of any concrete block shield wall within the scope of drawings included in the SAR would require a 50.59 evaluation. If such walls were not within the scope of any drawings included in the SAR, then no evaluation would be required except in the case of deletion of a wall specifically mentioned in SAR text or erection of a wall in a location where the SAR says there are no wsils or where SAR described features would be undermined.
(4) Jumpers / Lifted Leads.
- 1. If it is determined that use of a jumper / lifted lead results in a change to the facility, as described in the SAR, then a safety evaluation is required. This approach should apply to all types of temporary modifications. Generally, if a plant system is changed by use of jumpers / lifted leads so that it will function differently than described in the SAR, a 50.59 evaluation would be required.
On the other hand, use of jumpers / lifted leads that result in plant conditions already analyzed and approved by NRC would not require a 50.59 evaluation. For example, bypassing protection channels in a manner already described in the SAR would not constitute an unreviewed safety question and would not require an evaluation under the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59. It is expected that only a small percentage of jumpers / lifted leads will require a written 50.59 evaluation.

- b. Changes in Procedures As Described.in the SAR. This pertains not only to procedures discussed in the initial operations and organizational chapters of the SAR, but also to other procedural-type commitments, such as the Emergency Plan and modes and sequences of plant operation described in the SAR. If a procedure results in a deviation from the steps listed in the SAR or will result in a change to a system as described in the SAR, then a 50.59 evaluation should be performed. Contrasting examples of the above follow.
(1) If in the description of the radioactive waste system in the SAR, it is stated that the Sh'ift Supervisor will authorize all radioactive liquid releases, an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59 would be required before assigning this function to another individual. On the other hand, if the SAR merely states that radioactive liquid releases will be authorized as detailed by plant procedures, the licensee's redesignation of the authorization function would not require a 50.59 evaluation.
(2) If the reactor startup procedure, as described in the SAR, contains eight fundamental sequences, decisi,on to eliminate one of the sequences would require an evaluation to meet the 10 CFR 50.59 requirements. On the other hand, if the eight fundamental sequences were consolidated but did not alter the basic functions performed, it would not be necessary to conduct a 50.59 evaluation.
- c. Conduct Tests and Experiments Not Described in the SAR. This pertains to the performance of an operation not described in the SAR which could have an adverse effect on safety-related systems.
Contrasting examples of such tests or experiments are:
(1) Some plants in the startup testing program have performed a deboration to critical with all rods inserted. Since this test is performed without deference to the "one stuck rod criterion," an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59 would be required if the test is not delineated in the SAR. Since this test may decrease the margin of safety defined in the TS basis, it should in most instances, be classified as an unreviewed safety question. On the other hand, a test to demonstrate the calibration of the nuclear l instrumentation system by performance of a secondary plant
- heat balance would not require a 50.59 safety evaluation, even if such a test was not delineated in the SAR, since the test does not involve an abnormal mode of operation.

(2) A test to determine if the boric acid evaporator may also be used for concentration of the steam generator blowdown effluent (function not described in the SAR) would require an evaluation to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59, since secondary system chemicals could possibly have a deleterious effect on some components within the reactor coolant pressure boundary. On the other hand, an experiment to determine the decontamination factor of the liquid waste concentrator with influent activities of 10 2 Ci/ml and 10 5 Ci/ml would not require a 50.59 evaluation since such an experiment would not represent departure from normal operational modes.
Tests and experiments not described in the Safety Analysis Report includes only those tests and experiments that would have been described in the Safety Analysis Report had they been anticipated at the time the Safety Analysis Report was written. Such tests and experiments would be restricted to those which could degrade the margins of safety during normal operations or anticipated transients, or degrade the adequacy of structures, systems or components to prevent accidents or 1
mitigate accident consequences.
Test - The process of submitting a statement to such conditions or operations as will lead to its proof or disproof, or to its acceptance or rejection.
Experiment - An operation carried out under controlled conditions in order to discover an unknown effect.
