Therefore,theproposedchangedoesnotinvolveasignificantincreaseinthe probabilityorconsequencesofanaccidentpreviouslyevaluated. | |||
2.Doestheproposedamendmentcreatethepossibilityofanewordifferentkindof accidentfromanyaccidentpreviouslyevaluated? | |||

DESCRIPTIONANDASSESSMENT
1.0DESCRIPTION
Pursuantto10CFR50.90,VirginiaElectricandPowerCompany(DominionEnergy Virginia)proposeschangestotheNorthAnnaPowerStation(NAPS)Units1and2 OperatingLicenses(OLs)andTechnicalSpecifications(TS)toadoptTSTF-577,Rev.1, "RevisedFrequenciesforSteamGeneratorTubeInspections."TheTSrelatedtosteam generator(SG)tubeinspectionsandreportingarebeingrevisedbasedonoperating history.
TheproposedchangesrevisetheTSrelatedtoSGtubeinspectionandreporting requirements:intheAdministrativeControlssectionoftheTS.Specifically,theNAPS Units1and2TSarebeingrevisedtodefineanew,fixedSGtubeinspectionfrequency ofatleastevery96effectivefullpowermonths(EFPMs)andtoreviseinspectionperiod requirements.Thenewinspectionperiodstartsaftera100%inspectionofallSGtubes hasbeenperformedduringasingleoutage(pastorfuture),whichwascompletedfor NAPSUnits1.and2duringthespring2018andspring2019refuelingoutages(RFOs),
respectively.ThecurrentTSrequirementtoperformaninspectionafteracrackisfound within,"24effectivefullpowermonthsoronerefuelingoutage(whicheverresultsin morefrequentinspections),"isalsobeingrevisedtorequireaninspectionduringthe nextRFO.Finally,theproposedchangerearrangestheexistingreportingrequirements inTS5.6.7forclarity.
2.0ASSESSMENT 2.1ApplicabilityofSafetyEvaluation DominionEnergyVirginiahasreviewedthesafetyevaluationforTSTF-577,Rev.1, providedtotheTechnicalSpeci'ficationsTaskForceinaletterdatedApril14,2021 evaluation(ADAMSAccessiontheinformationNo.ML21'098A188).inThisTSTF-577,reviewRev.included1AsthedescribedNRCinstaff'sthe subsequentandparagraphs,DominionprovidedEnergyVirginiahasconcludedthatthejustifications
presentedinTSTF-577,Rev.1,andthesafetyevaluationpreparedbytheNRCstaff areapplicabletoNAPSUnits1and2andjustifythisamendmentfortheincorporationof thechangesintotheNAPSTS.
ThecurrentSGTSrequirementsarebasedonTSTF-510,"RevisiontoSteam GeneratorProgramInspectionFrequenciesandTubeSampleSelection."BothNAPS Units1and2SGshaveAlloy690thermallytreated(Alloy690TT)tubes.Thecurrent DocketSerialNos.:No.:50-338/33921-214 PageEnclosure2of4
inspectionperiodfollowingimplementationofTSTF-577,Rev.1,willbeestablishedas beginninginMarch2018forNAPSUnit1andMarch2019forNAPSUnit2.Dominion EnergyVirginiawillsubmitaSGTubeInspectionReportmeetingtherevisedTS5.6.7 requirementswithin30daysafterimplementationofthelicenseamendment.
2.2Variations DominionEnergyVirginiaisnotproposinganytechnicalvariationsordeviationsfrom theTSchangesdescribedinTSTF-577,Rev.1,ortheapplicablepartsoftheNRC staff'ssafetyevaluationdatedApril14,2021.(ADAMSAccessionNo.ML21098A188).
TheNAPSTSutilizedifferentnumberingthantheStandardTechnicalSpecificationson whichTSTF-577,Rev.1,wasbased.Specifically,the"SteamGenerator(SG)Program" TSTF.isnumberedThisdifference5.5.8intheisadministrativeNAPSUnits1andanddoes2TSnotratheraffectthanthe5.5.9applicabilityasstatedofTSTF-inthe
577,Rev.1,totheNAPSUnits1and2TS.
TheNAPSUnits1and2TScontainsarequirementthatdiffersfromtheStandard TechnicalSpecificationsonwhichTSTF-577,Rev.1,wasbasedbutisencompassedin theTSTF-577,Rev.1,justification.Specifically,NAPSUnits1and2TS5.5.8,"Steam Generator(SG)Program,"itemb.2,states,"Leakageisnottoexceed1gpmforall SGs,"ratherthan,"Leakageisnottoexceed1gpmperSG;"however,theNAPSTS requirementforSGleakageismoreconservativeandisthereforeacceptable.
3.0REGULATORYANALYSIS 3.1NoSignificantHazardsConsiderationAnalysis DominionEnergyVirginiarequestsadoptionofTSTF577,Rev.1,"Revised FrequenciesforSteamGeneratorTubeInspections."TheTechnicalSpecifications(TS) relatedtosteamgeneratortubeinspectionsandreportingaresignifi'cantrevisedbasedon operatinghistory.DominionEnergyVirginiahasevaluatedifahazards considerationisinvo'Ivedwiththeproposedamendment(s)byfocusingbnthethree standardssetforthin10CFR50.92,"Issuanceofamendment,"asdiscussedbelow:
1 Doestheproposedamendmentinvolveasignificantincreaseinthe.probabilityor consequencesofanaccidentpreviouslyevaluated?
Respoonse:Non :m Theproposedchangerevisestheinspectionfrequenciesforsteamgenerator tubeinspectionsandassociatedreportingrequirements.Inspectionfrequencies DocketSerialNos.:No.:50-338/33921-214 PageEnclosure3of4
arenotaninitiatortoasteamgeneratortuberuptureaccident,oranyother accidentpreviouslyevaluated.Asaresult,theprobabilityofanyaccident previouslyevaluatedisnotsignificantlyincreased.TheSGtubesinspectedby theSGProgramcontinuetoberequiredtomeettheSGProgramperformance criteriaandtobecapableofperforminganyfunctionsassumedintheaccident analysis.Asaresult,theconsequencesofanyaccidentpreviouslyevaluatedare notsignificantlyincreased.
Therefore,theproposedchangedoesnotinvolveasignificantincreaseinthe probabilityorconsequencesofanaccidentpreviouslyevaluated.
2.Doestheproposedamendmentcreatethepossibilityofanewordifferentkindof accidentfromanyaccidentpreviouslyevaluated?
Response:No.
Theproposedchangerevisestheinspectionfrequenciesforsteamgenerator tubeinspectionsandassociatedreportingrequirements.Theproposedchange doesnotalter:thedesignfunctionoroperationoftheSGsortheabilityofanSG toperformthe'designfunction.TheSGtubescontinuetoberequiredtomeetthe SGProgramperformancecriteria.Theproposedchangedoesnotcreatethe possibilityofanewordifferentkindofaccidentduetocrediblenewfailure mechanisms,malfunctions,oraccidentinitiatorsthatarenotconsideredinthe designandlicensingbases.
Therefore,theproposedchangedoesnotcreatethepossibilityofanewor differentkindofaccidentfromanyaccidentpreviouslyevaluated.
3.Doesthe.proposed.amendmentinvolveasignificantreductioninamarginof safety?
Response:'No.
The roposedchangerevisestheinspectionfrequenciedforsteamgenerator tubeinspectionsandassociatedreportingrequirements.Theproposedchange doesnotchangeanyofthecontrollingvaluesofparametersusedtoavoid exceedingregulatoryorlicensinglimits.Theproposedchangedoesnotaffecta designbasisorsafetylimit,oranycontrollingvalueforaxparameter*established inthe'UFSARorthelicense.
DocketSerialNos.:No.:50-338/33921-214 PageEnclosure4of4
Therefore,theproposedchangedoesnotinvolveasignificantreductionina marginofsafety.
Basedontheabove,DominionEnergyVirginiaconcludesthattheproposedchange presentsnosignificanthazardsconsiderationunderthestandardssetforthin10CFR 50.92(c),and,accordingly,afindingof"nosignificanthazardsconsideration"isjustified.
3.2Conclusion Inconclusion,'basedontheconsiderationsdiscussedabove,(1)thereisreasonable assurancethatthehealthandsafetyofthepublicwillnotbeendangeredbyoperationin theproposedmanner,(2)suchactivitieswillbeconductedincompliancewiththe Commission5sregulations,and(3)th'eissuanceoftheamendmentwillnotbeinimicalto thecommon2defenseandsecurityortothehealthandsafetyofthepublic.
