| ==Dear Mr. Scarpello,==
| |
| | |
| By {{letter dated|date=October 5, 2020|text=letter dated October 5, 2020}} (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML20290A500), Indiana Michigan Power Company (I&M, the licensee) requested that, pursuant to Section 50.55a(z)(1) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) authorize relief request REL-PP2 for Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (CNP). Specifically, the licensee requested authorization of a proposed alternative to certain requirements in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (ASME OM Code), associated with the vibration acceptance criteria for smooth running pumps at CNP.

| The NRC staff has reviewed the submittals and determined that additional information is needed to complete its review. The specific questions are found in the enclosed request for additional information (RAI). During a telephone call on January 26, 2021, the I&M staff indicated that a response to the RAIs would be provided by February 26, 2021.

| INDIANA MICHIGAN POWER COMPANY DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR PLANT, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-315 AND 50-316 INTRODUCTION By {{letter dated|date=October 5, 2020|text=letter dated October 5, 2020}} (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML20290A500), Indiana Michigan Power Company (I&M, the licensee) requested that, pursuant to Section 50.55a(z)(1) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) authorize relief request REL-PP2 for Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (CNP). Specifically, the licensee requested authorization of a proposed alternative to certain requirements in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (ASME OM Code), associated with the vibration acceptance criteria for smooth running pumps at CNP.
| |
| The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff is reviewing the application and has determined that the following additional information is required in order to complete the review.
| |
| APPLICABLE REGULATION AND GUIDANCE The NRC regulations in 10 CFR 50.55a(z)(1) require that a licensee must demonstrate that its proposed alternative would provide an acceptable level of quality and safety.
| |
| The NRC regulations in 10 CFR 50.55a(f)(4), Inservice testing standards requirement for operating plants, states, in part, that valves that are within the scope of the ASME OM Code must meet the inservice testing (IST) requirements set forth in the ASME OM Code; and that valves that are within the scope of the ASME OM Code, but are not classified as ASME BPV Code Class 1, 2, or 3, may be satisfied as part of an augmented IST program.
| |
| RAI-EMIB-01 The NRC staff compared the October 5, 2020, submittal to the version of the CNP IST Program Plan outlined in {{letter dated|date=June 30, 2016|text=letter dated June 30, 2016}} (ADAMS Accession No. ML16197A057) and noted apparent differences. Please confirm the information for the components within scope of the IST Program with respect to the differences noted in the table below:

Recently, ASME issued Code Case OMN-22, Smooth Running Pumps, to provide its recommended method for an alternative to the ASME OM Code pump testing requirements for smooth running pumps. The wording in the licensees alternative request looks similar to OMN-22, but this Code Case is not directly referenced in the alternative request. Does the similarity in wording reflect the licensees intention to follow OMN-22?
