On March 12, 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC" or "Commission") | |||
issued an order (Reference 1) to PPL Susquehanna, LLC (PPL). Reference 1 was immediately effective and directs PPL to develop, implement, and maintain guidance and strategies to maintain or restore core cooling, containment cooling, and spent fuel pool cooling capabilities in the event of a beyond-design-basis external event. Specific requirements are outlined in Attachment 2 of Reference 1. | |||
Reference 1 required submission of an initial status report 60 days following issuance of the final interim staff guidance (Reference 2) and an overall integrated plan pursuant to Section IV, Condition C. Reference 2 endorses industry guidance document NEI 12-06, Revision 0 (Reference 3) with clarifications and exceptions identified in Reference 2. | |||

The purpose of this letter is to provide PPL Susquehanna, LLC's (PPL) second six-month status report pursuant to Section IV, Condition C.2, of Reference 1, that delineates progress made in implementing the requirements of Reference 1. Enclosure 1 provides
Document Control Desk PLA-7137 an update of milestone accomplishments since the last status report, including any changes to the compliance method, schedule, or need for relief and the basis, if any. is a revision of the Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan. This revision documents the change from 480 V AC generators to 4160 V AC generators in Phase 2 and several other updates. Enclosure 2 contains security-related information to be withheld from public disclosure under 10 CFR 2.390.
On March 12, 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC" or "Commission")
issued an order (Reference 1) to PPL Susquehanna, LLC (PPL). Reference 1 was immediately effective and directs PPL to develop, implement, and maintain guidance and strategies to maintain or restore core cooling, containment cooling, and spent fuel pool cooling capabilities in the event of a beyond-design-basis external event. Specific requirements are outlined in Attachment 2 of Reference 1.
Reference 1 required submission of an initial status report 60 days following issuance of the final interim staff guidance (Reference 2) and an overall integrated plan pursuant to Section IV, Condition C. Reference 2 endorses industry guidance document NEI 12-06, Revision 0 (Reference 3) with clarifications and exceptions identified in Reference 2.
Reference 4 provided PPL' s initial status report regarding Mitigation Strategies.
Reference 5 provided PPL's initial Mitigation Strategies Overall Integrated Plan.
Reference 1 requires submission of a status report at six-month intervals following submittal of the Overall Integrated Plan. Reference 3 provides direction regarding the content of the status reports.
The Request for Relaxation contained in Reference 9 supersedes the Request for Relief made in Reference 6. The Request for Relaxation is based on NRC mandated changes to the Hardened Containment Vent System implementation dates that impact the Mitigation Strategy Overall Integrated Plan. Specifically, the change in implementation dates for the Hardened Containment Vent Order (NRC Order EA-12-050 was rescinded and superseded by NRC Order EA-13-1 09) impacts the Mitigation Strategy Overall Integrated Plan and implementation timeline.
This letter contains no new or revised regulatory commitments.
If you have any questions regarding this report, please contact Mr. John L. Tripoli at 570-542-3100.

- 4. Changes to Compliance Method NRC Order EA-12-049 requires implementation of Mitigation Strategies to include procedures, guidance, training, and acquisition, staging, or installing of equipment needed for the strategies.
Enclosure 1 to PLA-713 7 Page 5 of8 Reference 1 provided PPL's response to the NRC Order EA-12-049. The cover letter identifies that delays in implementing the Hardened Containment Vent System as required by NRC Order EA-12-050 will affect implementation of the Mitigation Strategies NRC Order EA-12-049 actions.
The Reference 1 enclosure describes PPL' s Mitigation Strategies that are based on venting the containment using the Hardened Containment Vent System. It also describes that a modification is required to install a Hardened Containment Vent System.
Thus the PPL response to NRC Order EA-12-049 provided in Reference 1 was premised on installation and use of a Hardened Containment Vent System as required by NRC Order EA-12-050.
Upon issuance of NRC Order EA-13-109, the NRC staff changed technical and schedule requirements applicable to the Hardened Containment Vent System and rescinded the requirements of the NRC Order EA-12-050.
As a result, full compliance to the Mitigation Strategies required by NRC Order EA-12-049 and described in Reference 1 for PPL Susquehanna Units 1 and 2 will not be achieved until compliance with NRC Order EA-13-109 is achieved as described in Reference 8.
- 5. Need for Relief/Relaxation and Basis for the Relief/Relaxation PPL expects to comply with NRC Order EA-12-049, but needs relaxation of the implementation dates. The specific details have been submitted in a separate document (Reference 8).
NRC Order EA-12-049 requires implementation of Mitigation Strategies to include procedures, guidance, training, and acquisition, staging, or installing of equipment needed for the strategies.
Reference 1 provided PPL's response to the NRC Order EA-12-049. The cover letter identifies that delays in implementing the Hardened Containment Vent System as required by NRC Order EA-12-050 will also affect implementation of the Mitigation Strategies NRC Order EA-12-049 actions.
The Reference 1 enclosure describes the PPL Susquehanna Mitigation Strategies that is based on venting the containment using the Hardened Containment Vent System. It also describes that a modification to install a Hardened Containment Vent System is required.
Thus the PPL NRC Order EA-12-049 response provided in Reference 1 was premised on installation and use of a Hardened Containment Vent System as required by NRC Order EA-12-050.
Enclosure 1 to PLA-7137 Page 6 of8 Upon issuance of NRC Order EA-13-109, the NRC staff changed technical and schedule requirements applicable to the Hardened Containment Vent System and rescinded the requirements of the NRC Order EA-12-050.
As a result, full compliance to the Mitigation Strategies required by NRC Order EA-12-049 and described in Reference 1 for PPL Susquehanna Units 1 and 2 will not be achieved until compliance with NRC Order EA-13-109 is achieved.
Relaxation of the NRC Order EA-12-049 IV.A.2 requirements is required and has been requested (Reference 8).
