SUMMARY
OF SEPTEMBER 19, 2012, TELECONFERENCE MEETING WITH PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY ON DIGITAL REPLACEMENT OF THE PROCESS PROTECTION SYSTEM PORTION OF THE REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM AND ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES ACTUATION SYSTEM AT DIABLO CANYON POWER PLANT (TAC NOS. ME7522 AND ME7523) On September 19, 2012, a Category 1 teleconference public meeting was held between the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and representatives of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E, the licensee) at NRC Headquarters, One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville, Maryland.
The purpose of the teleconference meeting was to discuss the license amendment request (LAR) submitted by PG&E on October 26, 2011, for the Digital Replacement of the Process Protection System (PPS) Portion of the Reactor Trip System and Engineered Safety Features Actuation System at Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML113070457).
A list of attendees is provided in Enclosure
- 1. The teleconference meeting is one in a series of publicly noticed teleconference meetings to be held periodically to discuss issues associated with the NRC staff's LAR review. Preliminary issues that the NRC staff identified during the initial review, and the licensee's responses to these preliminary issues, were discussed during the teleconference meeting. The list of preliminary issues is provided in Enclosure
- 2. The NRC staff and licensee confirmed that the next meeting on this topic would be held on October 17, 2012. Highlights from the meeting include the following: The NRC staff and PG&E discussed the cyber security review and question 52 of Enclosure
- 2. It was agreed that the response to question 52 would not be amended by PG&E and any follow-up concerns related to this question would be addressed during an audit. The audit plan, which the staff will issue publicly prior to conducting the audit, will reflect issues that the staff would like to discuss in this area. The NRC staff indicated that it was in the process of finalizing the audit plan for an audit of Invensys Operations Management facilities in Lake Forest, California.
The staff and PG&E indicated that the audit was tentatively scheduled for the November 2012 time frame. If the audit is to include cyber security discussion pursuant the discussion above, the audit plan will reflect this expectation.
-The NRC staff and PG&E discussed the information found in Enclosure 3, associated with Eagle 21 Technical Specification (TS) applicability to the replacement PPS. The issue is whether or not a justification for the applicability of the Eagle 21 TSs needs to be developed for the replacement PPS. There was agreement that such a justification is needed and that it will be reviewed by the staff as part of its review of the LAR. The staff took an action to add a new open item to the open item tracking table to track the issue. The NRC staff and PG&E discussed several of PG&E's proposed responses found in Enclosure
- 2. Based on interactions during the meeting, PG&E took an action to modify some of the responses to address issues that the staff identified.
PG&E will provide the revised response to the staff prior to the next meeting. The revised responses and any new issues identified by the staff will be updated in the master open item tracking table and will be discussed at the next public meeting tentatively scheduled for October 17, 2012. Please direct any inquiries to me at 301-415-1132 or Docket Nos. 50-275 and 50-323

30 RA Software Development Plan Section 7 of the Invensys Nuclear System Integration Program Manual (NSIPM) requires that non-conforming procedures shall be used to control parts. components, or systems which do not conform to requirements.
Invensys documents 993754-1-906, Software Development Plan, and 993754-1-905, PPS Replacement DCPP Project Management Plan, do not identify non-confirming procedures to be followed when deviations are identified and how deviations should be corrected.
Please provide this information.
PG&E response:
The Project Management Plan (PMP), 993754-1-905, is the overarching project management document for the Invensys scope of the PPS Replacement Project. It references other Invensys planning documents that discuss procedures to follow when deviations are identified and how they are corrected.
The Software Development Plan, 993754-1-906, describes the software development process for the Invensys scope of the PPS Replacement Project. 993754-1-906, has been revised to Revision 1, to include new Section 3.2.6 that discusses problem reporting and corrective action. 993754-1-906, Revision 1, was submitted by PG&E on August 2, 2012.

The scope of Revision 1 is slightly different from the scope described in Rev. O. For example, Section 1.2 in both revisions states that test coverage includes all ALS modules, backplane, license sense modules (LSM), and ALS service unit (A TU). However Section 2, Test Items, for these revisions are different.
Revision 1 only focuses on ALS-1 02 and backplane assemblies.
This section does not include other ALS modules, LSM and ATU. Please explain why these other ALS modules are not included in section 2 of the new revision.
Further, Table 1-2 identifies "Diablo Canyon PPS Test Plan" as document No. 6116-00005, which is the same number than "Diablo Canyon PPS System Test Plan". Please clarify if this is referring to a different document.
OPEN PG&E Response:
The scope of both revisions are the same. Revision 1 changes added more detail into the overall scope. The details are broken down into 2 main parts: 1-The individual components, 2 -The System components.
Both parts equal the entire ALS based Diablo Canyon system which includes all ALS modules, Backplane, ASU (incorrectly stated as ATU in the open item), LSM, ALS-102A1B specific to Diablo and full ALS system test which includes the testing of ALS slave cards required by the DCPP configuration.
The entry in Table 1-2 for the Diablo Canyon PPS Test Plan, 6116-00005 is the same document as Diablo Canyon PPS System Test Plan 6116-00005.

The Gyber Security program manager and other members of the GSA T (Gyber Security Assessment team) met with the Process Protection System (PPS) Upgrade design engineer beginning in 2011. Many options were discussed.
The Gyber Security program manager and project manager have met with the procurement group to discuss cyber security principles that should be written into the procurement procedures, and what steps will help to ensure a secure supply chain. The Gyber Security Assessment Team (GSAT) was formed in accordance with section 3.1.2 of the cyber security plan, and Milestone a, on 10/31/2011.
A list of critical digital systems and assets was created in accordance with section 3.1.3 of the cyber security plan and Milestone b on 10/31/2011.
The GSAT looked at scheduled digital upgrades, and added the future to the list of critical digital systems. The GSAT determined the PPS equipment will be a critical system, with several GDAs. From July 9-12 2012, the cyber security project manager accompanied members of the Quality Verification group to examine the design and production facilities of Invensys, and examined the code production practices and the development environment, and determined that Invensys has an SDE, and ensures their employees are reliable and trustworthy.

Reference to the staff SER will be included in FSAR Section 7.2.1.1.6 for the reactor trip portion of the process protection system and to Section 7.3.1.1.4.1 for the engineered safety features actuation system portion of the process protection system. 56 WEK PG&E Letter DCL-12-050, Phase 2 Documents, Attachment 2 FSAR OPEN Changes, FSAR Section x.x.x.x, (page 7.2-23) states that the evaluation for New the common mode failure in the PPS is pre.sented in References 37 [DCPP PPS D3 L TR] and approved in Reference 38 [the staff's SER approving the DCPP PPS D3 L TR]. However, it is noted that in the staff's SER it was stated in several sections that the D3 design features were approved based on " ... confirmation that the proposed built-in diversity of the ALS sub-system is found to be acceptable." This confirmation will be provided in the DCPP PPS SER, therefore, the staff's SER should also be referenced in this section. Response:

SrclRI that either physically opens the data transmission circuit or interrupts the connection by means of hardwired logic. "Hardwired logic" as used here refers to circuitry that physically interrupts the flow of information, such as an electronic AND gate circuit (that does not use software or firmware) with one input controlled by the hardware switch and the other connected to the information source: the information appears at the output of the gate only when the switch is in a position that applies a TRUE or "1" at the input to which it is connected.
Provisions that rely on software to effect the disconnection are not acceptable.
It is noted that software may be used in the safety system or in the workstation to accommodate the effects of the open circuit or for status logging or other purposes) that demonstrate how this hardwired switch disconnects the ALS maintenance workstation from the ALS safety processor.
r-pG&E Response:
For the ALS subsystem, instead of using a hardwire keyswitch, the ALS subsystem will be administratively controlled by physically disconnecting the communication link to the ALS MWS computer when the Test ALS Bus (TAB) is not being used for surveillance testing, maintenance, and trouble-shooting.
This is a PPS replacement design change described in the response to NRC request for additional information in PG&E Letter DCL-12-083 and will be included in a to LAR 11-07. RJS ALS FMEA -There are several failure modes identified in Table 4-4 of the FMEA where the System Effects entry provides a description of functions that are not affected by the failure mode instead of stating what the effects of the failure mode are. For example, the System Effects in the ETT failure in line 5b of table 4-4 are that the Alarm Function remains operational.
Though this may be the case, it does not state what the effects of the failure mode are. Examples of this can be found in lines 5b, 6a, 6b, 7a, 9h, 9i, 11 b, 11c, and 11d. Status RAI No. (Date Sent) RA/ Comments Response (Due Date) PG&E Response:

September 18, 2012 DCPP PPS Open Item Summary Table Attachment 2 Open Items Related to Software Configuration Management Plan 1) Configuration process In open item 4, the staff requested description of the software configuration management activities for configurable boards (e.g., ALS FPGA-102 board). Since the ALS FPGA-102 board is customer specific, its configuration management activities are not covered by "ALS Configuration Management Plan." Even though item 4 is closed, this request was not addressed in the response for item 4. The PG&E SCM 36-01, item 1.2.8, states that ALS board has two sets of NVRAM. Further, it explains that the configuration of the NVRAM can be changed only by removing the subject board from the ALS chassis and inserting it into a special test fixture. It is not clear who will control this process and configuration of the NVRAM. Please explain. Section 1.2 of the Invensys Document No. 993754-1-909, "Software Configuration Management Plan," states that this plan controls operating system of the computers used to run TriStation 1131 and the signal simulation software used for testing purpose. However, the description provided throughout the plan only focuses on the configuration activities for the TSAP (e.g., Section 2.3 states that the SCM procedures are for the TSAP). Further, this same section (later on) identifies the software configuration to be managed, and this list does not include operating system of the computers used to run TriStation 1131 and the signal simulation software used for testing purpose. Please clarify the scope of this plan. 2) Organization a) The organization and responsibilities described in Section 4 of CF2.ID2 is not consistent with the information presented in Section 2 of SCMP 36-01. For example, Section 2 of SCMP 36-01 identifies system coordinator, application sponsor, and system team, who are not identified in Section 4 of Cf2.ID2. Further these descriptions are not identified in the project organization described in PG&E PPS Replacement Plan (Attachment 3 of the LAR). Please clarify the roles and responsibilities for SCM, and provide a cross reference of the PG&E organizations described in these documents.
- 3) Changes and Problems Identification a) PG&E SCMP36-01 states that software, hardware, and configuration problems are reported in accordance with PG&E OM7.ID1 and that software and/or configuration problems are reported via a PROG PDCM Notification.
Please clarify when and how these are used. For example, for software problems does one have to report the problem using both PG&E OM7.ID1 and PROG PDCM Notification.
Note that PG&E CF2.ID2 states that all problems associated with plant computer system should be reported and document per OM7.ID1 (See section 5.11 and 5.16.10 (b) of CF2.ID2) Further, Section 3.2.1 states that all PPS modifications should be initiated and tracked per plant procedures or CF4.ID1. Section 3.2.2 states that the implementation of the change is documented in the associated Change Package and a SAP notification and order. And Section 3.2.10 states that all identified problems and corrective actions using a notification, which is not specified.
So should .software modifications require reporting and tracking using OM7.ID1, CF4.ID1, PROG PDCM Notification, Change Package, and SAP Order? Please explain PG&E procedures for different changes and the documenting and tracking system used for all types of modification.
b) Please clarify the means to track changes. Section 3.2.4.7 of the SCM 36-01 states that this is done using a SAP order, but Section 3.2.4.7 states that Change Package and SAP order are entered in the September 18, 2012 DCPP PPS Open Item Summary Table Record Management System, and Section 3.3 describes a Configuration Status Account I which is used to track changes of configuration items. 4) Document Repository a) SCM 36-01, Section 2.3.3 identifies the Digital Systems Engineering SourceSafe as the repository, but Section 3.2.5.5 identifies http://dcpp142Iidmws/home/asp, and Section 3.29 states that the files necessary for recovery of the baseline are maintained in the PPS database in SC-I-36M, Eagle 21 Tunable Constants." It is not clear if these two sections are referring to the same document reporsitory or if it is the same. Please clarify b) PG&E has implemented restrictions to access files and documents associated with PPS replacement project. Further, PG&E requires user authentication and access to edit configuration, software, and data. It is not clear if these restrictions apply for access to the Digital Systems Engineering SourceSafe or the repository in http://dcpp142/idmws/home/asp.
Approach to Justify the Applicability of WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 Technical Specification Changes to the Triconex/AlS System at Diablo Canyon Issue: The Technical Specification changes to the process protection system justified in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376, and approved by the NRC, apply only to currently operating process protection systems (7100, 7300, Eagle 21). A justification for the applicability of these changes to the Triconex/ALS system needs to be developed.
Background:
WCAP-10271-P-A; WCAP-10271, Supplement 1-P-A; WCAP-10271-P-A, Supplement 2, Rev. 1; WCAP-14333-P-A, Rev. 1; and WCAP-15376-P-A, Rev. 1 (References 1-5) provide the justification for extending completion times, bypass test times, and surveillance test intervals for components in the reactor protection system. The reactor protection system components include the analog channels, logic cabinets, master and slave relays, and reactor trip breakers.
The analysis supporting these changes is based on the Westinghouse 7300 process protection system. A justification was previously developed that extended the applicability of these changes to the Westinghouse Eagle 21 Process Protection System. The NRC's Safety Evaluation associated with WCAP-15376 specifically stated "For future digital upgrades with increased scope, integration and architectural differences beyond that of Eagle 21, the staff finds the generic applicability of WCAP-15376-P, Rev. 0 to future digital systems not clear and should be considered on a plant-specific basis." Based on this statement, it is concluded that the applicability of the TS changes justified in WCAP-15376-P-A, Rev. 1 to digital systems other than Eagle 21 needs to be justified.
Similar statements are not included in the NRC's Safety Evaluations for WCAP-10271-P-A with Supplements 1 and 2 or for WCAP-14333-P-A, Rev. 1, but it would be prudent to provide such a justification to cover all the changes justified in these WCAPs. Approach to Justification:
A qualitative approach will be used to assess the applicability of the WCAP changes to the Triconex/ALS system. This assessment will involve a comparison of the Triconex/ALS system to the Eagle 21 system. The idea is to demonstrate qualitatively, based on system design, signal development, backup systems, etc., that the Triconex/ALS system is equal to or better than Eagle 21 with regard to the reliability of protection signal development.
Since the WCAP changes are applicable to the Eagle 21 system, and if the Triconex/ALS system is equivalent to or better than the Eagle 21 system, then the WCAP changes should be applicable.
This assessment will include a detailed review of the Triconex/ALS and Eagle 21 system designs with regard to structure and architectural differences, protection signals, common cause failures, and self-check features, and will include, as necessary, available failure modes and effects analyses and reliability assessments.

-The NRC staff and PG&E discussed the information found in Enclosure 3, associated with Eagle 21 Technical Specification (TS) applicability to the replacement PPS. The issue is whether or not a justification for the applicability of the Eagle 21 TSs needs to be developed for the replacement PPS. There was agreement that such a justification is needed and that it will be reviewed by the staff as part of its review of the LAR. The staff took an action to add a new open item to the open item tracking table to track the issue. The NRC staff and PG&E discussed several of PG&E's proposed responses found in Enclosure
- 2. Based on interactions during the meeting, PG&E took an action to modify some of the responses to address issues that the staff identified.
PG&E will provide the revised response to the staff prior to the next meeting. The revised responses and any new issues identified by the staff will be updated in the master open item tracking table and will be discussed at the next public meeting tentatively scheduled for October 17, 2012.
