- 1. Prior LOCA Model Assessment A 10 CFR 50.46 report for Hope Creek was submitted in June 1, 2004.
Subsequent to this report and with the startup of cycle 13 in November 2004, Hope Creek discharged all GE9B fuel and implemented GE14 fuel. The Referenced LOCA analysis was implemented as analysis of record for GEI4 fuel and SVEA-96+ fuel.

- 2. Prior LOCA Model Assessment In the referenced letter to the NRC, the impact of a GE postulated new heat source applicable to the LOCA event was reported. This heat source is due to recombination of hydrogen and excess oxygen drawn into the vessel from containment during core heatup. The PCT impact for all fuel types was 00 F. The referenced letter also reported the impact of the top peak axial power shape on the small break LOCA. The impact of the top peak axial power shape on the licensing basis PCT was zero degree for both GE 14 fuel and SVEA-96+ fuel for Hope Creek.
