On June 18, 2013, the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) provided NextEra E nergy Point Beach, L L C (NextEra)
with the results of the Temporary
Instruction (TI) 2515-187, "Inspection
of Near-Term
Task Force Recommendation
2.3 Flooding Walk Downs," conducted
at the Point Beach Nuclear Plant (PBNP) during the first quarter of 2013. The results of the Tl included a performance
deficiency
related to the PBNP implementation
of certain procedures
intended to mitigate postulated
flooding events (Reference 1 ). The Reference
1 letter further informed NextEra that NRC had preliminarily
determined
that the significance
of the identified
performance
deficiency
was yellow. On June 28, 2013, Next E ra requested
a Regulatory
Conference
to discuss the significance
determination (Reference
2). On July 15, 2013, NextEra provided a summary of the updated wave run-up analysis and an explanation
of the results which clearly demonstrate
that the safety significance
of the performance
deficiency
is very low (Reference
3). NextEra Energy Point Beach, LLC, 6610 Nuclear Road, Two Rivers , WI 54241 
Document Control Desk Page 2 The updated analysis and results were discussed
at the July 22, 2013, Regulatory
Conference
during which NRC requested
additional
information.
The responses
to the additional
information
requests are contained
in the Enclosure
to this letter. NextEra maintains
that using the updated external flooding analysis and Probabilistic
Risk Assessment (PRA) models are the best available
information
to assess the safety significance
of the subject performance
deficiency.
As discussed
in the enclosure
to this letter, the results show that the Turbine Building is only impacted by postulated
flood frequencies
in the range of E-06/yr resulting
in a change in core damage frequency
of 1.E-08/yr.
Consequently, the safety significance
of the performance
deficiency
is very low, with margin. This letter contains no new Regulatory

ENCLOSURE
NEXTERA ENERGY POINT BEACH, LLC POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
UPDATED FLOODING ANALYSIS AND SIGNIFICANCE
DETERMINATION
Summary The external flooding analysis for Point Beach Nuclear Plant (PBNP) contained
in the station's
Individual
Plant Examination
of External Events (IPEEE) is dominated
by conservative
estimations
and assumptions.
The cumulative
effect of these conservative
assumptions
results in overestimating
the impact of external flooding events, including
wave run-up. NextEra developed
an updated storm surge/wave
run-up analysis utilizing
more recent and best-available
information
and modeling which provides a more reliable analytical
basis for assessing
the associated
safety significance
of the postulated
flooding event. The application
of this updated analysis shows that the identified
performance
deficiency
is of very low safety significance, with margin. During the July 22, 2013 Regulatory
Conference
to discuss the significance
determination
of the performance
deficiency
as described
in Reference
1, and the updated analysis and results that were provided in Reference
3, the NRC requested
additional
information.
This Enclosure
contains the NRC requests and the NextEra responses.
Attachment
2 is an updated safety significance
determination
evaluation.
The results show that the Turbine Building is only impacted by postulated
flood frequencies
in the range of E-06/yr resulting
in a change in core damage frequency (t1CDF) of 1.E-08/yr.
Consequently, the safety significance
of the performance
deficiency
is very low, with margin. Request 1: The Wave Run-Up Calculation
references
a draft FEMA document.
Is it appropriate
to use the draft FEMA document?
Response 1: The Draft FEMA (2012) Report was only used as a supporting
document and not for any of the run-up calculations.
However, the Draft FEMA (2012) Report has since been issued final. ENERCON has reviewed the final issued FEMA (2012) Report. There are no changes in that final report that impact the results or conclusions
of ENERCON's
total run-up calculation.
Request 2: Are the values in Point Beach Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Table 2.5-1 average values or maximum values? Page 1 of 10 
Response 2: The wave heights listed in Point Beach Nuclear Plant (PBNP) Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Table 2.5-1 are maximum deep water wave heights (not mean wave heights) for the " Full Year" and "Ice-Free
Period" for each recurrence
frequency
that is listed. The information
contained
in FSAR Table 2.5-1 is based on Sargent & Lundy report , "Maximum Deep Water Waves & Beach Run-up at Point Beach," dated January 14, 1967. The Sargent & Lundy report was prepared to support the preliminary
safety analysis for Point Beach and provided an evaluation
review of probable wave conditions
and wave run-up for recurrence
frequencies
up to 1 in 500 years. FSAR 2012 Section 2.5 Hydrology (Page 2.5-2) states: "The predicted
magnitude
of deep water wave heights is shown in Table 2.5-1." The Sargent & Lundy report, Section II, (page 4) states: " ... the following
maximum deep water waves are calculated:
... " The list of calculated
values includes 23.5' as the maximum calculated
deep water wave occurring
once each 500 years. Request 3: Provide copy of the Bathymetry/topography
calculation
that defines site topography
in the updated analysis.
Response 3: ENERCON Calculation
FPL-076-CALC
-001, "Bathymetry
and Topography
Data Processing (DELFT3D Domain)," is included as Attachment
1. Citations
in this document, i.e., "(NOAA, 1996)," refer to references
in that calculation. (The input data for the calculation
is not included in Attachment
1 due to its volume.) Discussion:
The site topography
used in the analysis is the combination
of a June 2013 site survey and publicly available
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) and United States Geological
Survey (USGS) information. The best available
and most recent data were used directly for development
of the model. The purpose of the bathymetry
and topography
calculation (FPL-076-CALC-001)
is to convert the raw data into a format that can be imported into the DEL F T3D software.
A brief summary of each data source follows. 1 Lake Michigan Bathymetry
Bathymetric
data was obtained from the NOAA National Geophysical
Data Center (NGDC) website (NOAA, 1996) as an ASCII grid file. The data were published
in 1996 and are the best available
bathymetric
data for Lake Michigan.
2 Site-Specific
Topography
From June 12-14, 2013, a survey team from AECOM, led by a Registered
Land Surveyor in the State of Wisconsin, performed
a topographic
survey at PBNP specifically
for this analysis (NEE, 2013a). The survey included the general area and specific features around the Circulating
Water Pump House (CWPH), bounding the land areas and features which would potentially
be affected by wave action from Lake Michigan and extending
into a bathymetric
survey of the lake by taking actual depth measurements
as far as safety would allow. This survey provided a much higher resolution (smaller grid size) for the immediate
site area than publicly available.
An image of the CAD drawing file is located on page 17 of 48 in the attached calculation.
Page2of10 
3 General Topography
The general topography
is included for completeness
of the model. The 1 /3-arc second ( -10 meter resolution)
National Elevation
Datasets (NEDs) were downloaded
from the USGS National Map website (USGS , 2011 ). The NEDs were published
in 2011 and are the best available
elevation
data. Request 4: Provide insights on acceptability
and validation
of DELFT3D software. Has NRC reviewed it or has another federal agency approved or used it? Response 4: DELFT3D has undergone
extensive
development
and is used worldwide.
DELFT3D is a suite of integrated
modules that simulate a host of processes: two-and three-dimensional
hydrodynamic
flows , sediment transport , waves , water quality, morphological
development , and ecology. The model was developed
over decades by Deltares, an independent
applied research institute
in the Netherlands.
Through development, it showed good agreement
against laboratory
data (e.g., Henrotte , 2008) and field measurements (e.g., Booij eta/., 1999; Elias, 1999; Luijendijk , 2001) and is now an open-source
software. Internationally, DELFT3D has been used for tsunami and storm surge analysis for power plants in the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, the Netherlands , and Canada (Lake Huron) by Rizzo Associates , Inc. The DELFT3D software has been internally
verified by ENERCON ENERCON maintains
a 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Assurance
program for safety related nuclear projects.
The DELFT3D software has been internally
verified under this program. DELFT3D has been applied and validated
by governmental
agencies in the United States. * In their validations, the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) found " in general , DELFT30 has been shown to be robust and accurate in predicting
nearshore
wave heights and flows." NRL has performed
surf prediction, wave modeling, and circulation/flow
analyses across the country with DELFT3D (NRL , 2002; 2006; 2008; 2009). * DELFT3D has been selected to replace the Navy Standard Surf Model (NSSM) for official Navy use (Rogers/NRL
; 2009). * The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) hindcasted
a winter storm (i.e., modeled waves and currents)
along Long Island with DELFT3D (USACE , 2004). DELFT3D has been used in five site evaluations
submitted
to the NRC. * South Texas Project, Units 3 and 4 (Texas), for Combined License Application (COLA) and FSAR for breach and wave modeling Turkey Point (Florida), Units 6 and 7 , for COLA tsunami wave analysis Turkey Point (Florida), Units 3 and 4, for the post-Fukushima
flood hazard re-evaluation
Nine Mile Point (New York) for nearshore
wave heights and periods * Victoria County (Texas) Station Early Site Permit Application, for Cooling Basin Breach Analysis Page 3 of 10 
Additionally, questions
were asked at the July 22, 2013 Regulatory
Conference
about the conservatisms
that were included as DELFT3D model inputs. A summary of the most important
inputs and outputs of the wave setup and incident run-up calculation, which add conservatisms, are provided below. This information
is included to show that the DELFT3D model inputs were selected to obtain results that had the greatest impact at the site. * The deep-water
wave height (23.5 feet) was determined
from the maximum 500-year event in the PBNP FSAR (2012), Section 2.5, "Hydrology", which states " ... only waves of lesser height actually need to be considered
in the run up of the beach." Use of 23.5' deep-water
wave height is conservative
and leads to a higher wave run-up. * Multiple deep-water wave directions
were prescribed
to determine
the most critical value (120 °, with respect to north, 0 °). Only water levels from the critical wave direction
were used in subsequent
calculations.
* The maximum sustained
easterly wind, as determined
by the Sargent & Lundy Runup Report (1967) and UFSAR (PBNP, 2012) were used in DELFT3D. The inclusion
of wind in the DELFT3D wave setup calculations
is a conservative
approach, since wind setup had already been included in the starting still water levels (e.g., worst-case
Individual
Plant Examination
for External Events (IPEEE) scenario, 587 feet IGLD 1955). * Depths near the seaward edge of the discharge
flumes were increased (made deeper) up to three meters to produce larger waves (and, thus, higher water levels) near PBNP. * The Manning's
coefficient
for bottom roughness (n) was set at 0.02, which is the suggested
value from USACE (2012). That value corresponds
to a sandy lake bottom. Although most of Lake Michigan is covered with sand, this is still a conservative
approximation, since other bottom irregularities
would have a higher n value and corresponding
decreased
wave set-up. * The wind drag coefficient
(0.0028) was a suggested
value from "FEMA Great Lakes Coastal Guidelines, Appendix 0.3" and is conservative.
This makes the wave heights greater near PBNP. * Run-up did not account for infiltration
and was assumed to be uninterrupted
by rundown. No barrier effects or reduction
factors due to surface roughness
are considered
to interrupt
run-up. These assumptions
are conservative.
Based on the above conservatisms
and the use of best available
and most recent topography
and bathymetry, the external water levels calculated
at the Turbine Building are concluded
to be the highest levels for leakage analysis.
As previously
indicated, DELFT3D has been used by a number of federal agencies including
its use in submittals
to the NRC. Request 5: IPEEE Table 5.2.5-2 is titled, "Mean Lake Level Hazard Curve For Point Beach." Are the values in the table mean or maximum values? What is the result of using starting lake level values shifted to the 95 1 h percentile
level to assess the range of potential
water levels in the turbine building?
What is impact on statistical
uncertainty
around the results from the Point Beach deterministic
evaluation?
What is the trend in Lake Michigan level during the past 20 years? Page 4 of 10 
Response 5: Table 5.2.5-2 of the IPEEE is entitled, "Mean Lake Level Hazard Curve for Point Beach." The basis of these data is the USAGE study (Revised Report on Great Lakes Open-Coast
Flood Levels) performed
in 1988. The study states that the listed levels are based on an analysis of the maximum instantaneous
levels recorded each year. Given this clarification, the "still water elevation" values in Table 3 of the safety significance
determination
provided in Attachment
2 of NRC 2013-0069
are not actually mean lake levels, but represent
recorded data of maximum yearly lake levels. The lake level frequency
analysis in the IPEEE is based on the TAP A-45 report (NUREG/CR-4458). Both of these documents
used a statistical
approach to determine
the frequency
of flooding on Lake Michigan.
Re-calculating
the wave run-up with a deterministic
approach is consistent
with the previously
used approach.
Based on industry guidance for PRA (e.g., EPRI TR-1 05396, "PSA Applications
Guide"), estimate models and data should be used to accurately
reflect the plant. This guidance further defines best-estimate as the point estimate of a parameter
utilized in a computation
which is not biased by conservatism
or optimism.
Generally, the mean value of a parameter
is considered
to be the best estimate.
However, a sensitivity
case was performed
using a 95th percentile
curve to represent
the annual flood frequency, rather than the values in the IPEEE. The results of that sensitivity
case show that even using the 95th percentile
curve, the
is only 3E-08/yr.
The base
resulting
from using the IPEEE annual flood frequency
curve is 1 E-8/yr. These values are both of very low safety significance.
Next E ra has concluded
that the flood frequency
that impacts equipment
in the Turbine Building is in the range of E-06/yr. Additionally, questions
were asked at the July 22, 2013 Regulatory
Conference
related to the trend in Lake Michigan water level data during the last 20 years. A review of Lake Michigan water levels over the last two decades since the PBNP IPEEE actually shows that the level has been steadily lowering. Request 6 (Equipment-Specific
Questions):
Engineering
Evaluation, EC 279398 , documents
the flood elevations
at which equipment
that is credited in the Point Beach PRA is assumed to be lost. The measurements
of the most limiting subcomponents
were considered
accurate within Yz". The recorded values are rounded down to the next closest Yz". The following
are the equipment-specific
questions
and responses
with respect to the flood failure elevations. Request 6.1: 1 A-05 and 2A-05 ( 4.16 kV Vital Switchgear)
have wires that are routed to the contact stabs which dip below the elevation
of the stabs on the block. Therefore, these wires will be wetted at a lower flood elevation
than that stated in the engineering
evaluation. Why does the evaluation
use the height of the lowest stab instead of the wire bundle height? Page 5 of 10 
Response 6.1 : This response is not limited to just those conductors
questioned
in the 4.16 kV Vital Switchgear. It includes other conductors
that are the subject of subsequent
questions. The photos contained
in EC 279398 which show the elevations
of electrical
equipment
subject to potential
submergence
depict several insulated
cables and internal wires that may be routed below the postulated
water elevation
stated in the engineering
evaluation.
As discussed
in greater detail below, these low voltage insulated
conductors
are not subject to electrical
failure due to a postulated
short duration immersion
in flood water. Previous industry experience
with insulation
failures due to immersion
in water has been noted when immersion
durations
are on the order of many years of continuous
or intermittent
immersion, and is more prevalent
in higher voltages than those carried by the conductors
in question.
As a result, the insulated
conductors
will not be impacted during the duration of a flooding event. Based upon inspection
of the photos contained
in EC 279398, all of the subject cables and internal wires are considered
low voltage conductors, typically
carrying 125VDC, 120VAC, or 480VAC. EPRI Report, "Plant Support Engineering:
Aging Management
Program Development
Guidance for AC and DC Low-Voltage
Power Cable Systems for Nuclear Plants ," contains guidance regarding
cable wetting or submergence.
Excerpts from Section 6 of this document, "Actions for Low-Voltage
Power Cables in Wet Environments," are provided below: 'The insulation
of low-voltage
power cable subjected
to long-term
wetting may deteriorate
over time. Insulated
Cable Engineers
Association
manufacturing
standards
required insulation
stability
testing to be performed
by manufacturers
to prove stability
of cable insulation
under wet conditions, so that no significant
deterioration
should occur for an extended period unless the conditions
of the soil or water are particularly
aggressive.
In /ow-voltage
cables, the thickness
of insulation
and jacketing
that are used is driven by mechanical
protection
capabilities
rather than by voltage withstand.
Therefore, the voltage stress in the insulation
is quite low by comparison
to that of medium-voltage
cable, and no electrically
driven failure mechanism
such as water treeing is expected to occur. Failures have occurred, possibly due to long-term
chemical deterioration
of jackets and insulations, but failures are more often due to installation
or post-installation
damage." The cables have their protective
jackets intact until entering the various boxes, and are routed in protective
metal conduits when low in the building structure.
The jacketing, conduits, and enclosures
prevent post-installation
damage to the wire insulation.
Similarly, the jacketing
on the cables protects the individual
conductor
insulation
from being damaged during installation
while pulling the cable thorough the conduits.
In the case of the cable bundle for the auxiliary
contact connection
block on the 4 kV breakers, the bundle is enclosed in a protective
braided metal sheath. This provides protection
while ensuring flexibility
of the bundle to accommodate
relative motion of the breaker components.
As noted in the EPRI Report guidance, the thickness
of the insulation
on low voltage conductors
is dictated by mechanical
protection
capabilities, not dielectric
requirements.
Therefore, even if some damage to the individual
conductor
insulation
is present, it is highly unlikely that it would lead to grounding
of the conductor
upon immersion
in water. Continuing
with the EPRI Report: "Rain and drain conditions
will not adversely
affect jacketed cables. Water takes a number of months to years to migrate into the jacket. Low-voltage
power cables are not susceptible
to Page6of10 
water treeing because the voltage stresses in the insulation
are too low to induce the electrochemical/electromechanical
degradation
mechanisms
involved.
Other water-related
* degradation
mechanisms
may exist; however, manufacturers'
water stability
tests indicate that water-related
degradation
should not occur." PBNP operating
experience
supports the conclusions
in the EPRI Report. The only significant
cable failures due to water submergence
that have occurred at PBNP were associated
with medium voltage cables where the electrical
stresses are sufficient
to cause water treeing over an extended period of time. For example, a failure of an underground
cable from transformer
1X-04 occurred in 2008 due to long term periodic wetting. This cable had been in service since original plant construction (more than 35 years). Prior to performing
improvements
to reduce and mitigate water intrusion
in electrical
manholes, numerous low voltage cables at PBNP had been exposed to numerous periods of water submergence, with no failures.
Internal wiring at PBNP is typically
type SIS switchboard
wire, which is rated for dry or wet environments.
Underwriters
Laboratories
Standard UL 44, "THERMOSET-INSULATED
WIRES AND CABLES," provides testing requirements
for this cable type, which includes a dielectric
withstand
test in water. Section 36.1 of UL 44 states: "The insulation
shall enable a finished wire or cable capable to withstand
for 60 s without breakdown
the application
of the test potential
indicated
in Table 36.1 under the following
conditions.
The wire or cable shall be immersed in tap water at room temperature
for not less than 6 h, following
which it shall be subjected
to the voltage test while still immersed.
The dielectric
voltage-withstand
test shall be conducted
before the insulation-resistance
test .... " The dielectric
test voltage for 600V type SIS wire is a minimum of 3,000V, which far exceeds the actual voltages in use. Although the wiring in the EC 278398 photos may be routed below the maximum postulated
flood elevation;
this wiring is rated for wet environments
and will not fail upon being submerged
during a flooding event. Therefore, the elevations
included in the subject engineering
evaluation (height of lowest exposed electrical
device) remain valid. There is no need to postulate
any increase in failure probability
of equipment
due to wetted insulated
conductors. Request 6.2: In the C-78 DC Power Transfer Control Panel there is at least one wire that drops from the lowest terminal block to the bottom of the panel (-6" above the floor), and will be wetted at a lower flood elevation
than that stated in the engineering
evaluation.
Why does the evaluation
use the height of the terminal block rather than the wire elevation?
Response 6.2: As discussed
in detail in the response to question 6.1, low voltage insulated
wires and cables such as those seen in the C-78 power transfer control panel are not subject to electrical
failure from direct immersion
in water for the periods of interest in a flooding event. Request 6.3: The local control panel (C-62) for P-35A, Electric Fire Pump, rests on a very low concrete base (-1" high). The flood vulnerability
of P-35A is discussed
in the evaluation;
however, C-62 is not. Are there components
in C-62 that are vulnerable
to wetting at low flood elevations?
Page 7 of 10 
Response 6.3: As stated in the evaluation, the Electric Fire Pump was included in the engineering
evaluation "for completeness
of information," and was not the subject of any of the other three documents (PRA internal flooding notebook, IPEEE, or Flooding Vulnerability
Report). The higher elevation
of the vulnerable
components
in the control panel for the pump were known to the preparer and verifier of the engineering
evaluation
to be well above the elevation
of the pump motor windings.
As a result, discussion
of the control cabinet was inadvertently
omitted from the evaluation.
The vulnerable
components (i.e., un-insulated
exposed electrical
conductors)
are more than 31" above the 7' elevation
floor slab (19" above the 8' plant elevation).
This is bounded by the lower elevation
of the pump motor windings, which are listed as 12" above the 8' elevation
in the evaluation.
Request 6.4: In the photographs
that are included in the engineering
evaluation
of D-01 and D-02, 125V DC Distribution
Panels, the lowest cables dip below the 12.5" listed in the evaluation, and will be wetted at a lower flood elevation
than that stated in the evaluation.
Why does the evaluation
use a height of 12.5" rather than the wire elevation?
Response 6.4: As discussed
in detail in the response to question 6.1, low voltage insulated
wires and cables such as those seen in the D-01 and D-02 DC panels are not subject to electrical
failure from direct immersion
in water for the periods of interest in a flooding event. Request 6.5: In the photograph
that is included in the engineering
evaluation
of the junction box on K-38, Service Air Compressor, there are several wires running along the bottom of the box at -1 0.5'' above the floor level. Why does the evaluation
use a height of 12.5" rather than the wire elevation?
Response 6.5: As discussed
in detail in the response to question 6.1, low voltage insulated
wires and cables such as those seen in K-38 terminal box are not subject to electrical
failure from direct immersion
in water for the period of interest in a flooding event. The bottom location(s)
on the terminal strips are unused. The first (lowest) terminal strip used is located at 12W'. Request 6.6: In the photograph
that is included in the engineering
evaluation
of C-61, Control Panel for P-358 Diesel Fire Pump, there are cables -11" above the floor. The Pumphouse
floor is at the plant 7' elevation, not the 8' elevation.
Yet the evaluation
concludes
that a flood vulnerability
height of 16" should be used. How is this justified?
Page8of10 
Response 6.6: The evaluation
did not consider insulated
conductors
to be vulnerable
to shorting or grounding
as a result of direct immersion
in water. This is why the elevation
of the lowest [bare] terminal lugs were used rather than the lowest wire in the various cabinets and enclosures.
The basis for this is discussed
in greater detail in the response to question 6.1. The 16" value stated in the summary spreadsheet
at the back of Engineering
Evaluation
279398 is in error. As stated in the evaluation: " ... the lowest un-insulated
terminal strips in the DFP control panel (C-61 ), which are slightly more than 16" above the 7' floor. Therefore, a value of 16" should be used for flood risk assessments".
The intent of the evaluation
was that the vulnerable
elevation
is 16" above the 7' elevation, not the 8' elevation.
However, when this was transcribed
into the spreadsheet
summary at the end of the evaluation, an error occurred that indicated
the elevation
is ">16" above the 8' plant elevation.
The entries in the spreadsheet
summary were to all be referenced
to the 8' plant elevation, and the one foot correction
for this component
was not made. Additionally, the FSAR describes
the elevation
as 4.5" above the 8' plant elevation.
Further review of the photographs
confirmed
that the lowest vulnerable
component
in the cabinet is at least 16.5" above the 7' floor elevation.
Therefore, the entry in the spreadsheet
should have been 4.5" rather than ">16". The error has been documented
in the corrective
action program, and two independent
reviews were immediately
performed
to determine
the extent of condition. Both reviewers
concluded
that all other entries in the spreadsheet
for equipment
located in the Pumphouse
were correctly
adjusted for the difference
in floor elevations.
The engineering
evaluation
will be amended to correct this error via the corrective
action program. Additionally, the actual flood vulnerability
elevation
for C-62 is reflected
in the revised PRA model by including
the failure of P-35B, Diesel Fire Pump at a flood water elevation
range of 4" to <8". This correction
results in a revised .6.CDF of 1.E-08/yr
as compared to the .6.CDF of 7.E-09/yr determined
with the Diesel Fire Pump failure at a flood water elevation
range of 12.5" to <17". The Updated Point Beach External Flood Safety Significance
Determination
is included as Attachment
2. This update did not materially
change the result of the safety significance
of the performance
deficiency, which remains very low. Request 6.7: The engineering
evaluation
describes
the D-63 and D-64 panels as having been modified to install insulating
end caps on the exposed bus bars to prevent them from being wetted from water up to 18" deep. However, no photographs
were included.
There are conduits entering these cabinets from the sides, suggesting
that there are wires or cables in the conduits that might be wetted at lower elevations.
Are these conduits sealed to prevent wetting of the wires or cables in them? Response 6. 7: As discussed
in greater detail in the response to question 6.1, insulated
internal wires and cables are not subject to failure due to direct immersion
from the postulated
flooding.
Therefore, although the wiring in the side entry conduits could be wetted, this would not cause electrical
failure. Page 9 of 10 
The modification
that installed
the panels specifically
assessed the potential
for water intruding
into the cabinets and made provisions
to protect exposed electrical
conductors
that are below the potential
flood elevation. Sealing of the conduits and other penetrations
to prevent flood i ng impact was determined
to not be necessary.
Per CRN 261586 (ECN 15158) and 206911 (ECN 14483), field verification
showed the D-63 and D-64 main bus bar elevations
to be approximately
%'' below the centerline
of the P-38A and P-38B pump motor windings. A Raychem insulated
heat shrink end cap and heat shrink tubing were installed
on the bottom of each exposed bus bar. This provides protection
up to the P-38A and P-38B pump motor winding centerline
height. CRN 261586 states: "Raychem environmental
qualification
testing results included in EDR-5389, Rev. 0 and EDR-5336 , Rev. 5 , concluded
that the end caps and sleeve tubing (respectively)
used in this modification
are environmentally
qualified
for a LOCA accident environment
... The test samples were also subject to 24 hours submergence
in tap water at room temperature , +I-25&deg;C at least 12 inches below the water surface with a DC voltage applied of 500 volts for 1 minute. This test is similar to conditions
expected during a L OCA accident condition
in this application
... The Raychem end cap and tubing sleeve will not be subjected
to a harsh environment
as described
by DG-G11 " Environmental
Qualification
Service Conditions
': Therefore , the end cap and tubing sleeve are acceptable
for use in this installation." Request 6.8: A walkdown of the 1 and 2P-29 Turbine Driven Auxiliary
Feedwater
Pumps found that
there are junction boxes associated
with the 1-MS-2082 and 2-MS-2082 valves (trip and throttle valves) that are located -6" above the floor. These junction boxes do not appear to have been addressed
in the evaluation.
Please provide information
on the content of these boxes and the potential
consequences
of their being wetted. Response 6.8: These boxes were not specifically
addressed
because they were not included in the three documents
that were being reconciled , and because previous efforts had confirmed
that there are no exposed energized
electrical
components
w i thin the boxes. These boxes were verified to contain direct runs of insulated
wires, with no terminal blocks, splices, or other potent i ally exposed conductors.
As discussed
in detail in the response to question 6.1, low voltage insulated
wires are not subject to electrical
failure due to direct immersion
for the periods of time being considered
for flooding events. Attachments

CALCULATION
CONTROL SHEET REV. 0 1.1 I PAGE NO. 7 of 48 1. Purpose and Scope This calculation
is performed
under NextEra Energy (NEE) Contract Order 02306247, to evaluate wave runup and related Inundation
effects due to surge In Lake Michigan at the Point Beach Plant (PBN) The purpose of this calculation
is to compile Lake Michigan bathymetry
and near site topography
and suNey data into a tab delimited
xyz text file (.xyz). The output files are referenced
to a horizontal
datum in the World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS84) geographic
coordinate
system (GCS) and a vertical datum referenced
to Lake Michigan low water datum (LWD) at the International
Great Lakes Datum of 1985 (IGLD85) with units in meters. The files will be created using publically
available
bathymetric
data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) and topographic
data from the United State Geological
SuNey (USGS). The latest site suNey completed
in June 2013 will also be used to obtain site elevation
information. The following
output files from this calculation
will be utilized In FPL-076-CALC-003 "DELFT3D Model: " 1. Lake Michigan bathymetric
points, 2. Near site topographic
elevation
points, 3. Site suNey elevation
points, 4. Site suNey contours denoted as point features, 5. Lake Michigan shoreline
denoted as point features, 6. Additional
elevation
points In discharge
canals. 2. Summary of Results and Conclusions
The text delimited
xyz file (.xyz), referenced
to WGS84 GCS meters-IGLD85, is based on available
bathymetric
data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA, 1996), United States Geological
SuNey (USGS) National Elevation
Datasets (NED) (USGS, 2011 ), and site suNey elevation
points (NEE, 2013a). Spacing of bathymetric
data Is approximately
90 meters; spacing for the NEDs Is 10 meters; and spacing for the site suNey is variable, between one to ten meters. Thus, the output text files (.xyz format) containing
bathymetry
and topographic
elevations
are appropriate
for use as Input for calculation

s 4.1 Lal<e Michigan LWD, established
by NOAA, is set to 176.0 meters-IGLD85 (NOAA, 2013a). It is assumed the LWD is the average water level (established
at the Lake Michigan master gauging station at Harbor Beach, Michigan)
which is considered
constant at all locations
around Lake Michigan (NOAA, 2013b). 4.2 The site survey (NEE , 2013a), delivered
in CAD (.dwg) and microstation
(.dgn), does not include ground elevation
along the discharge
flumes. For the purposes of this calculation, the contours lines provided in the file will connect across the discharge
flume area. Since the discha r ge flume area is considered
an obstruction
for wave action In the DELFT3D coastal modeling software, it is assumed bathymetry
within this area is negligible. 5. Design Input s The following
are the digital file inputs that were utilized for this calculation:
5.1 Lake Michigan Bathymetry, Gridded Bathymetric
Data (ASCII): Michigan_lld (NOAA , 1996). The NOAA Lake Michigan bathymetric
data is the best bathymetry
available
at the time of this calculation.
The grid data is in North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83) GCS, referenced
to IGLD85 vertical datum at 176.0 meters LWD. 5.2 National Elevation
Dataset from the USGS, 1/3-arc second (10 meters) grid: n45w088_13 (USGS, 2011 ). The NED is in the NAD83 GCS, referenced
to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) with units in meters. 5.3 Topographic
Survey of PBN by AECOM (NEE, 2013a), with elevation
points In a " Point, Northing, Easting, Elevation, Description" format and a CAD file conta i ning contours and breaklines (G60302156_PBNP
_ Topo.dwg). The horizontal
coordinates
are in the Wisconsin
State County System of Manitowoc
County, referenced
to NAVD88 with units in feet (AECOM, 2013). The input files are provided in Attachment
A (on DVD). 6. Methodology
The location of the PBN was determined
utilizing
the USGS Two Creeks, WI Quadrangle
referenced
to NAD83 (USGS , 2010a). The latitude and longitude
of the approximate
center point of PBN, obtained from the Two Creeks, WI Quadrangle (USGS, 2010), is 44' 16' 52.0" North, 8?-32' 12" West. The plant location, as shown on Figure 1, was used to obtain the required bathymetry
and topography
data.

will be used as input for the DELFT3D coastal modeling software. The DELFT3D modeling software user's manual states that if the user wants to use spherical
coordinates, the coordinates
system of the data must be in WGS84 (Deltares, 2011 ). Thus, the bathymetry
and topography
will be converted
to the WGS84 to meet the criteria. The ESRI ArcGIS Desktop 10.1 software (ESRI, 2012a) was utilized to create tab delimited
xyz text files (.xyz) containing
longitude (x), latitude (y), and height (z). Topography
and bathymetry
will be in the WGS84 GCS at JGLD85 vertical datum in meters at LWD for Lake Michigan.

was converted
to sounding data so that positive units indicate values below the reference
plane and negative units indicate values above the reference
plane. Since the bathymetry
is referenced
to 176.0 m-LWD IGLD85, all bathymetric
values will be positive below the 176.0 m-IGLD85 elevation, which is at elevation

Converting
the OEM binary float grid vertical datum from m-NAVD88 to 176.0 m-LWD IGLD85 is a two-step process. F i rst , the data is converted
from NAVD88 to IGLD85. Then the LWD of 176.0 (NOAA, 2013) is added to IGLD85 to obtain the LWD IGLD85 height for Lake Michigan. According
to the art i cle "Establishment
of International
Great Lakes Datum (1985)" published
by the Coordinating
Committee
on Great Lal<es Basic Hydraulic
and Hydrologic
Data , "the development
of the NAVD (1 988) was to include vert i cal control networks of the U.S., Canada and Mex i co, as well as International
Great Lakes Datum data. For NAVD (1988), a minimum-constraint
adjustment
was performed
also holding fixed the primary benchma r k at Pointe-au-Pere/Rimouski.
Therefore, IGLD (1985) and NAVD (1988) are one and the same. The only diffe r ence between IGLD (1985) and NAVD (1988) Is that the IGLD (1985) bench mark elevations
are published
as dynamic heights 6 and the NAVD (1988) elevations
are published
as Helmert orthometric
helghts 7" (NOAA, 1995, p. 13). The benchmark
LSC 7 8 81 (NGS, 2013) was used as the vertical benchmark
for the site survey as indicated
in an e-mail from AECOM to ENERCON, dated June 20, 2013 (AECOM, 2013). According
to benchmark
LSC 7 B 81, the difference
between the established
NAVD88 height and the dynamic height i s 0.027 m (0.09 ft). The Raster Calculator
tool was utilized to convert NAVD88 to IGLD85 using a difference
of 0.027 m. The IGLD85 LWD for Lake Michigan Is 176.0 meters (NOAA, 2013a), which is the reference
plane for the bathymetric
dataset (NOAA, 1996r The IGLD85 datum could also be considered
as a height equivalent
above mean sea level , based on the adopted elevation
at Rimouski , Quebec, Canada (Rimouski) (NOAA , 1999). Figure 17 shows the reference
point for IGLD85 at Rimouski with the associated
vertical and horizontal
relat i onship to the Great Lakes-St Lawrence River System (NOAA, 1992). 6 The dynamic height of a benchmark
is the he i ght of a refe r ence latitude of the geopotential
surface through that benchmarl<.
In general, the dynamic height Is computed from the geopotentlal
height. [Geopotential_ht
= ortho_ht *(gravity+
(4.24 E-S * o r tho_ht))]
Dynamic height is then obtained by dividing the adjusted NAVD88 geopotential
heigth of a benchmark
by the normal gravity, G, computed on the GRS80 ellipsoid
at 45&deg; North. [G = 980.6199 gal] (NGS, 2012). 7 Orthometric
height is the difference
between ellipsoidal
heights, h, and geoidal heights, N. [H = h -N) (NOAA, 1985). 8 176.0 m-ILGD85 = 0 m Lake Michigan LWD for the dataset. That is, data below the 176.0 meters if negative and data above is positive in the dataset (NOAA, 1996).

l'olot Figure 17. Great Lakes System Profile: Vertical and Horizontal
Relationships (NOAA, 1992) To convert to LWO at IGLD85 for Lake Michigan, 176.0 m was subtracted
from the OEM binary float grid file. The elevation
at 176.0 m becomes the 0 m elevation
point for which the data below that reference
point becomes negative and data above Is positive.
For example, the maximum elevation
in the OEM grid file is 315.83 meters-NAV088. To convert to LWO at iGL085, the dynamic height of 0.027 m and the LWO of 176.0 m was subtracted
from the data. So, an elevation
of 315.83 m-NAV088 would equate to 139.80 m-LWO IGL085 (315.83-0.027-176.0). Thus, the maximum height in the clipped OEM dataset is 139.80 meters above LWO (176.0 m-iGL085).
The Raster Calculator
was used to subtract the dynamic height of 0.027 m and the LWO of 176.0 m from the OEM binary float grid. The output coordinates
were set in the Environmental
Settings to convert from NAD83 to WGS84. Figures 18 and 19 show the Raster Calculator
tool input parameters
and the associated
Environmental
Settings, respectively.

Converting
the suNey elevation
point feature vertical datum from m-NAVD88 to 176.0 m-LWD IGLD85 is a two-step process. First, the data Is converted
from NAVD88 to IGLD85. Then the LWD of 176.0 (NOAA, 2013) is added to IGLD85 to obtain the LWD IGLD85 height for Lal<e Michigan.
See Section 7.2.2 for a detailed description
of converting
the vertical datum NAVD88 to 176.0 m-LWD IGLD85. An attribute

will be used when examining
wave runup in the DELFT3D modeling.
Based on client provided data (NEE, 2013b), the height of the jersey barriers are at an elevation
589.3 ftIGLD55. Based on site survey (NEE, 2013a) the top of the northern discharge
wall is at 588.55 ft-NAVD88 and the top of the southern discharge
wall is at 588.16 ft-NAVD88.
To convert from ft-LWD at IGLD85 to ft-IGLD55, add 576.47 feet. This is based on the following
calculation:
[Starting

of the jersey barriers is at 12.83 ft-LWD IGLD85 , thus 576.47 ft would be added to obtain the top elevation
at ft-IGLD55:

2 NEXTERA ENERGY POINT BEACH, LLC POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT UPDATED POINT BEACH EXTERNAL FLOOD SAFETY SIGNIFICANCE
DETERMINATION
Performance
Deficiency
The licensee failed to maintain external flood mitigation
features, procedures , processes, and relevant descriptions
in the CLB that address maximum wave run-up. Executive
Conclusion
The safety significance
of this issue is assessed to be very low for Units 1 and 2. Table 4 provides the core damage frequency
with and without barriers as well as the change in core damage frequency
with and without the barriers.
The basis of this conclusion
is that a detailed wave run-up analysis results in a calculated
water level much lower than the water levels previously
evaluated
in the IPEEE. This analysis confirms that the IPEEE analysis was conservative
for the 1 E-06 frequency
event. Background
The IPEEE response to GL 88-20 evaluated
external flood hazards for Point Beach. This evaluation
was based in part on the analysis for external flood events conducted
in conjunction
with the NRC's TAP A-45 study. In order to evaluate the safety significance
of this issue, the data provided in the IPEEE was used in conjunction
with our updated analyses to evaluate the change in core damage frequency (CDF) and large early release frequency (LERF). For the purpose of this evaluation
the "change" being considered
is the plant with and without the barrier protection
to 589.2 IGLD 1955, as described
in the IPEEE report. To perform this evaluation, some simplifying
conservative
assumptions
are made: 1) At the time of the identification
of this issue, PC 80 Part 7 (Lake Water Level Determination)
directed the plant to install concrete Jersey Barriers if the Lake Michigan mean level was greater than or equal to a plant elevation
of +0.5 feet (580.7 ft IGLD 1955. This elevation
is 6.5 feet below the floor of the CWPH and 7.5 feet below the floor of the Turbine Building).
For the purposes of this evaluation, no credit is given to these barriers since the barriers would have been partially
effective.
2) The water level on site reaches the same height, inside and outside of the turbine building during the event providing
margin. 3) Above 589.2 ft IGLD 1955 (+9ft), the impact of the flood is the same with and without barriers. While the flow rate into buildings
would be lower with barriers than without, the extended duration assumed for this flood would result in the same Page 1 of 8 
impact with or without the barriers providing
margin. 4) Below 588.2 ft IGLD 1955 ( +8 ft), there is no impact from the flood (with or without barriers). 5) It is assumed that the reason for the high lake water level is a storm that results in a dual-unit loss of offsite power (LOOP) which is conservative
and provides margin. Risk Assessment
PBNP PRA Model Rev. 5.02 was used for this assessment.
The following
directory
paths were used for the computer files used in this assessment:
Since this evaluation
will be applying the frequency
of the external flood outside of the PRA model, all initiators
in the internal events model were set to 0.0 with the exception
of the weather-centered
LOOP initiator (INIT-T1W). By doing this, the value being quantified
is the conditional
core damage probability (CCDP), i.e., the core damage probability
assuming the initiator (external
flood in this case) occurs. The following
flags were used in all runs discussed
in this evaluation:
The following
steps were taken to evaluate the significance
of this issue: 1) Run CAFTA cases (average T&M) for Units 1 and 2 with an E-1 0 truncation
limit with flags set to account for the postulated
equipment
failures.
The results of the cases representing
the CCDPs for the five bins comprising
varying depths of water are shown in Table 1. For simplicity, only the maximum CCDP for each bin will be carried through the rest of this calculation.
2) The results of the calculated
water level based on the still water elevation
based on still water lake elevation
are shown in Table 2. 3) The results of the curve-fit
of the flood exceedance
frequencies
from Table 5.2.5-2 of the IPEEE are presented
in Table 3. Note that due to the data, two curve fits are presented.
The first curve fit represents
still water elevations
ft IGLD 1955 and the second curve fit represents
still water elevations
>585.1 ft IGLD 1955. 4) The informat ion on Tables 1, 2, and 3 are combined into Table 4 which calculates
the CDF with and without barriers along with a LlCDF that represents
the worst case value applicable
to Unit 1 and Unit 2. Note that based upon previous evaluations
and the very small CDF values, values for LERF were not calculated.
Due to the nature of the initiating
event, it is judged that there is no unique challenge
to LERF. Thus , the LlLERF for this evaluation
is judged to be well below 1 E-09/yr. The final calculation
of LlCDF for this issue is determined
to be 1 E-08/yr , which is of very low safety significance, with margin. Margin The flood consequence
evaluation
is considered
to be bounding and conservative
for the following
reasons: 1) All equipment
affected by the flood is assumed to be failed at time zero. In actuality, there would be a relatively
slow progression
of the postulated
flood throughout
the plant and Page 2 of 8 
equipment
would likely fail at various times. 2) There is no assumed duration for the flood, which necessitates
the assumption
that the water level throughout
the plant is equalized.
It is highly unlikely that water inside the buildings would remain
at those levels for an extended time since the cause of the water would eventually
stop and normal drainage would occur.
3) No credit for flood mitigation
actions taken in response to rising water levels throughout
the plant has been modeled. Due to the relatively
slow progression
of the postulated
flood, there should be time for the plant to respond to the rising water level and to protect and/or realign equipment
that may be in danger. 4) No credit for recovery actions taken in response to equipment
issues in the plant has been modeled. It is expected that some equipment
may be able to be recovered
and that other means to provide decay heat removal could be used, e.g., pumper trucks, B.5.b equipment, and portable generators.
5) The concrete barriers installed
at a lake level of 580.7 IGLD 1955, in accordance
with PC 80 Part 7, are assumed to be ineffective
in limiting the quantity of water. Page 3 of 8
