The proposed change would revise the TS to extend the completion time (CT) associated with
an inoperable Essential Cooling Water train from 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to 14 days, applicable once per train, and to be implemented prior to December 31, 2008. The licensee also proposed to eliminate
the second CT applicable to TS 3.8.1, Condition B in accordance with the NRC staff-approved
TS Task Force (TSTF) traveler TSTF-439.

Management Agency P.O. Box 116 Jefferson City, MO 65102-0116 OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RELATED TO ESSENTIAL SERVICE WATER UNION ELECTRIC COMPANY CALLAWAY PLANT DOCKET NO. 50-483 By application dated October 31, 2007, as supplemented by letter dated February 21, 2008, Union Electric Company (the licensee) requested the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff approval of a one-time change to the Technical Specifications (TS) for its Callaway
Plant. The NRC staff has reviewed the information provided in your submittal and determined
that additional information is required in order to complete its review. Please provide a
response to the following request for additional information (RAI) questions by May 15, 2008, to
facilitate the continuation of the review by the NRC staff:
- 1. The NRC staff asked for substantive justification that the known deficiencies in the probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) model, identified from peer reviews and identified to
the NRC staff in the submittal, would not significantly impact the application. In
response, to address the Scientech gap assessment against the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers internal events standard, the licensee restated that it "believed" these gaps would not invalidate the risk insights for this application, then argued that
since the existing PRA results were already greater than the Regulatory Guide 1.177
guidelines for permanent changes, the gaps would not result in any further significant
increase in the risk.
Please submit specific information which qualitatively discusses the substance of the
deficient items and adequately justifies that these deficiencies or gaps do not impact the
risk results of this application.
- 2. The NRC staff asked for discussion and justification of the truncation level for this application. The licensee's response identified the use of pre-solved cutsets to generate
the application risk results. The staff is concerned that the use of pre-solved cutsets for
this application may not be adequate to obtain an accurate assessment of the
configuration-specific risk level. Specific ally, the service water unavailability and random failure probability, coincident with the unavailability or failure of the backup normal
service water system (identified in other RAI responses as credited in the model),
represents a very unlikely failure mode, which may not appear in many cutsets above
truncation. Regenerating the cutsets with the service water train out-of-service to reflect
the actual configuration during the proposed extended completion time (CT) could result
in many more cutsets generated above the nominal truncation level, resulting in an
increase in the configuration-specific risk. This can be an especially significant problem
if the nominal unavailability and random failure probability result in large numbers of
cutsets just below the truncation level. In addition, initiating events, such as
loss-of-service water, are more likely to occur when one of the two trains is out-of-service. This frequency increase may not be reflected in the pre-solved cutsets, and, therefore, the risk contribution from such initiators would not be reflected in the
results.
Please provide risk results which avoid this potential non-conservatism by regenerating
cutsets for the specific configuration(s) expected as result of the changes requested and
addressing the increased likelihood of the loss-of-service water initiating event.
- 3. The NRC staff requested the licensee to address initiating events not included in its risk assessment model, including fires, floods, seis mic events, and other external events.
The licensee identified proposed compensatory measures, to include walkdowns of the
operable service water train, fire and flood watches in rooms identified as risk important
in the licensee's internal flooding, seismic margin, and fire protection evaluations, and
evaluation of transient combustibles within 20 feet of the operable service water train.
The staff is unable to conclude that these sources of risk will not be potentially significant
while the plant configuration has one service water header unavailable.
(a) With regard to seismic risk, there is no risk mitigation provided by the compensatory measure of walkdowns of rooms identified as risk-important in a
seismic margins analysis. Please provide a summary of the relationship between
the results of the seismic margins analyses which it identified in its response with
the specific configuration of the plant when it is reliant upon a single service
water header. The seismic ruggedness of the remaining operable service water
system should be addressed to justify that a seismic event is not likely to cause
damage to this system. The qualitative information should be adequate for the
NRC staff to conclude that seismic risk is not significant for this application.
Otherwise, additional quantified estimates should be provided to characterize the
risk impact.
(b) With regard to internal flooding, the NRC staff agrees that the compensatory measure of verifying the availability of flood mitigation equipment for the
protected train is beneficial. However, the NRC staff needs to understand the
significant contributors to internal flooding risk, how these could potentially
impact the remaining operable protected train of equipment, or otherwise result in
increased reliance upon that equipment, and either conclude that the risk of
these scenarios is not significant or that compensatory measures are in place to
mitigate these events. Please provide adequate qualitative information for the
NRC staff to determine whether the internal flooding risk is not significant for this
application. Otherwise, please provide additional quantified estimates enable the
NRC staff to characterize the risk impact.
(c) Similar to internal fires, the compensatory measures identified for walkdowns and monitoring of transient combustibles is a benefit. The staff must understand the
significant contributors to fire risk, how these could potentially impact the
remaining operable protected train of equipment or otherwise result in increased
reliance upon that equipment, and either conclude that the risk of these
scenarios is not significant or that compensatory measures are in place to
mitigate these events. Please provide adequate qualitative information for the
NRC staff to determine whether the fire risk is not significant for this application.
Otherwise, provide additional quantified estimates to characterize the risk impact.
(d) Please discuss the impact of this proposed TS change on other external events (i.e., hazardous material leaks, transportation events, high winds and tornadoes, etc.). Although weather-related loss-of-offsite power was addressed (and
credited in the risk analyses), there is no discussion of high winds with regard to
any unique vulnerabilities during the time the service water header is out of
service, the vulnerability of the backup normal service water system to high
winds, or other discussion to characterize the site with regard to this source of
risk. Other external events were not discussed at all.
- 4. The NRC staff previously requested the licensee to address sources of uncertainty in the risk analyses which may be significant for this application. In response, the licensee
stated, without justification or basis, that the assumptions applied and the use of point
estimates of mean values would not invalidate the risk analyses. For the specific areas
identified by the NRC staff as examples of key assumptions, the licensee identified the
methodologies used in the risk analyses, but did not provide any assessment as to the
impact of uncertainties associated with these assumptions on the application.
The purpose of this RAI was to request the licensee to review the important PRA
assumptions and elements of the model which are especially relevant to the risk of the
plant configuration with one service water header unavailable, to characterize the impact
of these uncertainties, and to develop and present its basis as to why these sources of
uncertainty do not adversely impact the result s of the risk analyses relevant to the NRC staff decision to accept a 14-day extended CT. Please provide a more specific technical
justification for your conclusions that the uncertainties do not affect the risk analyses.
With regard specifically to equipment repair credit, please identify what equipment
repairs are credited, the numerical value and basis for such credit, and the specific
impact to the risk metrics for this application. (Note that the NRC staff position does not
permit PRA credit for repair and restoration of any equipment subject to the extended CT
to be used in the calculation of the risk metrics.)
