Light's St. Lucie Nuclear Plant, Unit 2, for the emergency core cooling system analysis performed by Framatome, described in the attachment to this letter.


A       legacy                     error was                         identified in     analytical                         inputs   for the RCP         homologous                                                           curves                 that impacts both             the Realistic Large-Break                 (RLB)       and                       the Small-Break           (SB)     LOCA     analyses.
A legacy error was identified in analytical inputs for the RCP homologous curves that impacts both the Realistic Large-Break (RLB) and the Small-Break (SB) LOCA analyses.


As the reported error is of a           0°F impact,       the peak         cladding       temperature         (PCT)     continues                               to   remain within the limits. However,                   as       the cumulative                     PCT change                             already               exceeds                   50   °F for the SBLOCA analysis,                     a         30-day                           1 OCFR50.46   report must             be           issued.               The   cumulative                   change                             for the RLBLOCA remains                       under                         50         °F   and                           therefore no                           report for   RLBLOCA                     is attached.                   An                   evaluation                             of     the reported error has           concluded                                   that re-analysis                     is not             required.
As the reported error is of a 0°F impact, the peak cladding temperature (PCT) continues to remain within the limits. However, as the cumulative PCT change already exceeds 50 °F for the SBLOCA analysis, a 30-day 1 OCFR50.46 report must be issued. The cumulative change for the RLBLOCA remains under 50 °F and therefore no report for RLBLOCA is attached. An evaluation of the reported error has concluded that re-analysis is not required.

10 CFR 50.46 - Emergency Core Cooling System SBLOCA 30-Day Report

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.46(a)(3)(ii), this letter contains the 30-day report for the Florida Power &

Light's St. Lucie Nuclear Plant, Unit 2, for the emergency core cooling system analysis performed by Framatome, described in the attachment to this letter.

A legacy error was identified in analytical inputs for the RCP homologous curves that impacts both the Realistic Large-Break (RLB) and the Small-Break (SB) LOCA analyses.

As the reported error is of a 0°F impact, the peak cladding temperature (PCT) continues to remain within the limits. However, as the cumulative PCT change already exceeds 50 °F for the SBLOCA analysis, a 30-day 1 OCFR50.46 report must be issued. The cumulative change for the RLBLOCA remains under 50 °F and therefore no report for RLBLOCA is attached. An evaluation of the reported error has concluded that re-analysis is not required.

This letter contains no new or revised regulatory commitments.

Should you have any questions regarding this report, please contact Mr. Kenneth Mack, Fleet Licensing Manager, at (561) 904-3635.

Legacy error in Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) homologous curves.

A legacy error was identified in analytical inputs for the RCP homologous curves. The erroneous input error was evaluated by Framatome. The error has a negligible impact on the results of SBLOCA analysis, leading to an estimated peak cladding temperature (PCT) impact of O 0 F.
