Washington, D.C. 20555 Docket No. 50-280 50-281 License No. DPR-32 DPR-37 Gentlemen:
VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY SURRY POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 RUPTURE OF A MAIN STEAM PIPE PROPOSED OPERATING LICENSE AMENDMENT In a March 6, 1990 letter (Serial number 90-094) we requested a license amendment that would reference our latest analysis of main steam line break (MSLB) scenarios in the operating license. Due to the potential large instrument loop uncertainties for the pressurizer pressure transmitter in a harsh environment a re-analysis was performed without credit for the low pressurizer pressure safety injection function . This analysis confirmed that other sources of automatic safety injection provide adequate protection when required, or that no safety injection is necessary. Since our submittal, we have completed a separate evaluation of the impact of Westinghouse identified ECCS inconsistencies between the plant ECCS configuration and input assumptions in the Westinghouse supplied LOCA analysis. Our evaluation has identified an impact on the MSLB analysis results. The effect of the reduced safety injection flow was a small increase (approximately 3%) in the peak heat flux and a slight decrease (approximately 20 psig) in the reactor coolant system pressure at the time of peak heat flux for the 0.19 sq. ft. per loop break. This submittal provides an updated MSLB analysis which incorporates these results and supercedes the March 6, 1990 submittal in its entirety.
As noted in our March 6, 1990 submittal, it was determined that the probability of malfunction of the low pressurizer pressure safety injection had increased, and hence, an unreviewed safety question existed as defined by 1O CFR 50.59. Accordingly, our re-analysis which shows that low pressurizer pressure safety injection is not required for small steam line breaks is being submitted for NRC approval per 1O CFR 50.59(c);
along with a request for the appropriate license amendment per 1O CFR 50.90.
Attachment 1 is a copy of our re-analysis and Attachment 2 is our proposed amendment to the operating licenses for Surry Units 1 and 2.

e The proposed amendment has been reviewed and approved by the Station Nuclear Safety and Operating Committee and the Corporate Nuclear Safety Staff. It has been determined that the proposed change does not constitute a significant hazard as defined in 10 CFR 50.92.
