San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Units 2 and 3 - Request for Additional Information Regarding the License Amendment Request to Support Replacement Steam Generators (TAC Nos. MD9160 and MD9161)

Dear Sir or Madam:

Reference 1 provided a License Amendment Request for the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) Units 2 and 3 regarding replacement of steam generators. The proposed changes related to Steam Generator Tube Inspection and Repair Criteria and a revision of AO 1 P.O. Box 128 San Clemente, CA 92672

Document Control Desk February 5, 2009 the peak containment post-accident pressure and temperature. Reference 2 provided additional information related to NRC review of Reference 1.

By References 3 and 4 the U. S. NRC requested additional information from Southern California Edison (SCE) to support the review of Reference 1. This letter provides a response to the NRC questions contained in References 3 and 4. to this letter provides a Westinghouse authorization letter CAW-09-2527 with accompanying affidavit, Proprietary Information Notice, and Copyright notice.

The Westinghouse affidavit in Enclosure 1 sets forth the basis on which the information may be withheld from public disclosure by the Commission and addresses with specificity the considerations listed by paragraph (b)(4) of 10 CFR 2.390. Accordingly, it is respectfully requested that the information which is proprietary to Westinghouse be withheld from public disclosure in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390. provides a proprietary version of the response to the NRC's requests for additional information. provides a non-proprietary version of the response to the NRC's requests for additional information.

In addition, as part of the development of the response to these requests for additional information, SCE has determined that two items in Reference 1 require clarification.

In the Enclosure to Reference 1, Table 4.2-4 provided values for maximum post-accident peak pressures and temperatures for the analyzed cases. The times to peak containment pressure and vapor temperature for the bounding Equipment Qualification case as reported in Table 4.2-4 should be revised to 168 seconds and 36 seconds, respectively, to be consistent with the Table 4.2-4 results reported for the Main Steam Line Break (MSLB) case of zero percent power with a Main Steam Isolation Valve (MSIV) single failure. Although the peak containment pressure and temperature occur as described above, the peak containment pressure is essentially constant from 160 to 180 seconds and the peak vapor temperature is essentially constant from 35 to 36 seconds following event initiation. Although the reported times are revised, there is no effect on the conclusions of Reference 1.

Secondly, Table 4.2-1 of the Enclosure to Reference 1 summarizes the significant inputs for the Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) Containment Response Calculations. The first row of this Table, "Sources of Energy," describes the amount of main feedwater inventory modeled and refers to the feedwater pump trip as the point in time at which modeling of the feedwater inventory changes. This description should have referred to closure of the Main Feedwater Isolation Valves as the appropriate timing point. Although this description of the timing for consideration of feedwater inventory was different than used in the model the amount of energy modeled was accurate in the analysis, is consistent between the original steam

Document Control Desk February 5, 2009 generators and the replacement steam generators, and there is no effect on the conclusions of Reference 1.

There are no new regulatory commitments contained in this letter.

Should you have any questions, or require additional information, please contact Ms. Linda Conklin at (949) 368-9443.

Sincerely,

Enclosure:

12)

I am making this Affidavit in confonnmice with the provisions of 1t0 CFR Section 2.390 of the Commission's regulations and in conjunction with the Wesvirthouse "Application for Withholding" accompanying this Affidavit-(3) 1 have personal knowledge of the criterig and procedures utilized by' WestinghouWs in designaling information as a trade secrcl, privileged or as confi-dential comircrczial or financial i'dormnation, (4)

Pursuant to (he provisions of paragraph (b)(4) of Section 2.390 of the Conrmni ssion's regulalions, the Following is ftirnishecd for consideration by the Commission ht dctcrmining whether t11C information sor.hýt io be withheld from p.blic disclosure should be withherd.

(G)

(ii)

The informrraion is of a type customarily held in contfidcence by Wcsinghouse and not customarily disclosed to tbe public. Westinghouse has a rational basis for determinin;ig the ;tYp of i.ltibnntalion c~ustomairilv held in, corfidence by it and, in that coartection, utilizes a system to determine when and whether to hold cerain types of infonuat*on in confidence. The application rOf that system and the substance ofihat systcm constitutcs Westinglhousc policy and provides the ratiotonlt basis required.

Under that system, infonnation is.held in conFidence if it falls in one or more of several types, she release of which might result in the loss of an existing or potential competitive advantage, as follows:

(a)

The informationt reveahl the distinguishing aspects of a process (or componet.,

Each-cot p.tieat of proprietary innntiott to pertinent to a particular competitive advuntane is potentiallIy as valuable as the total competitive advantage. If competitors ticquire cormpoents of proprietary in formatinn, any one component may be the key to the entire pu..-le, thereby depriving Westinghouse of a competilive advantage, (e)

Unrestricted disclosure wouldjeopardize the position of prominence of Westinghouse in the world market, and lhereby give a9 market advantage to the cormpetilion ýt those countries.

RAIl:

Response to RAI 1 It was stated in Section 3.0 of the enclosure to the LAR that the containment post-accident pressure, mass and energy analyses for the design basis Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA) and Main Steam Line Break (MSLB) used the existing methodology while accounting for the differences between the RSGs and the existing SGs. Section 4.2.1.2 mentions examples of the differences such as greater water volume, higher secondary side operating pressure, greater heat transfer area and larger metal mass. Please quantify the differences between the RSG and the existing SG to the extent they were used in the analyses.

Table 1 provides the mass-energy and containment pressure-temperature response analyses input parameter changes due to differences between the Replacement Steam Generators (RSG) and the existing steam generators (also referred to as Original Steam Generators, OSG). The values provided in Table I are compared at full power operating conditions. The response to RAI 2 provides the input parameter changes that are not due to steam generator design differences.

RAI 2

Response to RAI 2 Section 4.2.3.1 states that the methodology used in the new evaluation is identical to the methodology used in the current licensing basis evaluation of the SONGS 2 and 3, and that only input parameters have been updated. Other than input parameter changes required by the differences between the RSGs and existing SGs (as would be included in the response to the RAI above), what other input parameters have been updated and why are they updated? Please explain how the updated parameters are still expected to yield conservative results?

Table 2 provides the analysis input parameter changes that are not due to RSG design differences. Table 2 addresses changes relative to the mass-energy release and containment pressure-temperature response analyses previously reviewed by the NRC Staff as part of PCN-528 (approved as U2/U3 License Amendments 182/173, dated January 24, 2002). The response to RAI 1 provides the input parameter changes that are due to steam generator design differences..

RAI 3

Response to RAI 3 Tables 4.2-1 and 4.2-3 provided a summary of significant inputs, significant points of methodology, and assumptions for LOCA and MSLB respectively.

Please indicate if all of them are the same between the existing and new analyses with the exception of differences dictated by the SG change out, and if they are different, explain the reasons for the difference and how they would still provide conservative results.

Table 3 provides the items that differ between Replacement Steam Generator (RSG) and Original Steam Generator (OSG) analyses relative to the summary of significant inputs, significant points of methodology, and assumptions identified in LAR Tables 4.2-1 (LOCA) and 4.2-3 (MSLB). Items listed in LAR Tables 4.2-1 and 4.2-3, but not included in Table 3, are items that did not differ between RSG and OSG analyses.

Response 3:

Table 3: Mass-Energy Significant Inputs, Points of Methodology, and Assumptions That Differ Between RSG and OSG Item RSG discussion per LAR Comments Table 4.2-1, Main feedwater prior to feedwater pump trip and the The OSG and RSG modeling of main-feedwater LOCA inventory in the feedwater lines downstream of the flow is the same. However, the main feedwater Sources of feedwater isolation valves after feedwater pump flow description provided in the license amendment Energy trip.

request is inaccurate. The proper description should state that the main feedwater inventory in the feedwater lines is a source of energy prior to the closure of the Main Feedwater Isolation Valves (MFIVs).

Table 4.2-3, No tube plugging is assumed when generating mass The RSG analysis minimizes tube plugging by MSLB 5 and energy for steam line breaks. Less active tube assuming no tube plugging, because initially there area reduces primary to secondary heat transfer area are no tubes plugged in the new RSGs. The OSG and thus slows the heat addition to the secondary analysis also minimizes tube plugging, but models inventory.

425 plugged tubes because at the time the OSG analysis was originated, at least 425 tubes were plugged.

Table 4.2-3, The evaluation of a 20 MW return to power The RSG Post-Trip Steam Line Break Event MSLB 21 indicates a return to power is not a significant transient analysis indicated that a small return to concern in the generation of MSLB mass and power (10 MW) could occur during an RSG MSLB energy.

event initiated from no-load conditions with a stuck rod (i.e., a stuck control element assembly). This condition is not present in the OSG analysis. For completeness, the RSG MSLB M-E analysis documents additional zero power cases to allow more than a 20 MW return to power. The additional parametric cases show insignificant changes in the analysis results.

RAI 4

Response 4:

Response to RAI 4 Section 4.2.3.2.1, Page 14 of 40 - In the statement, "Although test data indicate that significant condensation of steam occurs at the safety injection location, the model accounts for only 50 percent condensation during the interval when the annulus is predicted to be full and the Safety Injection Tanks (SITs) are injecting.

No credit is taken for condensation at the safety injection location at other times,"

please explain what is the test data that indicates significantly more than 50 percent condensation occurs at the safety injection location?

The data were compiled in test programs documented in CENPD-63 (Reference

1) and CENPD-65 (Reference 2). These programs, conducted under Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) contract AT (11-1)-2244, investigated the interaction of steam and emergency core cooling water in the intact cold leg of a PWR (CENPD-63) and the interaction of steam and emergency core cooling water in the broken cold leg of a PWR (CENPD-65). The test program, objectives, apparatus and data are described in detail in References 1 and 2.

RAI 1

In the letter dated August 13, 2008, SCE indicated that the 35 percent depth-based tube repair criterion remains appropriate for the replacement SGs. Please confirm that the determination of the tube repair criteria was performed in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.121,."Bases for Plugging Degraded PWR Steam Generator Tubes." In addition, please provide the tube size

'(diameter and wall thickness) and the design differential pressure across the tubes during normal operation.

Response 1:

SCE confirms that the determination of the tube repair criteria was performed in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1. 121, "Bases for Plugging Degraded PWR Steam Generator Tubes." The tubing size is 0.75 inch outside diameter and 0.0429 inch wall thickness. The design differential pressure across the tubes during normal operation is 1458 (i.e., 2250 - 792) pounds per square inch.
