GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC The research, development, engineering, analytical and NRC review costs comprise a substantial investment of time and money by GEH. The precise value of the expertise to devise an evaluation process and apply the correct analytical methodology is difficult to quantify, but it clearly is substantial. GEH's competitive advantage will be lost if its competitors are able to use the results of the GEH experience to normalize or verify their own process or if they are able to claim an equivalent understanding by demonstrating that they can arrive at the same or similar conclusions.

: a.       The Proprietary Information is owned by EPRI and has been held in confidence by EPRI. All entities accepting copies of the Proprietary Information do so subject to written agreements imposing an obligation upon the recipient to maintain the confidentiality of the Proprietary Information. The Proprietary Information is disclosed only to parties who agree, in writing, to preserve the confidentiality thereof.
: a.

As such, EPRI holds the information in confidence and disclosure thereof is strictly limited to individuals and entities who have agreed, in writing, to maintain the confidentiality of the Information.
The Proprietary Information is owned by EPRI and has been held in confidence by EPRI. All entities accepting copies of the Proprietary Information do so subject to written agreements imposing an obligation upon the recipient to maintain the confidentiality of the Proprietary Information. The Proprietary Information is disclosed only to parties who agree, in writing, to preserve the confidentiality thereof.
: c.       The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the following reasons. EPRI made a substantial economic investment to develop the Proprietary Information and, by prohibiting public disclosure, EPRI derives an economic benefit in the form of licensing royalties and other additional fees from the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information. If the Proprietary Information were publicly available to consultants and/or other businesses providing services in the electric and/or nuclear power industry, they would be able to use the Proprietary Information for their own commercial benefit and profit and without expending the substantial economic resources required of EPRI to develop the Proprietary Information.
: b.
: d.         EPRl's classification of the Proprietary Information as trade secrets is justified by the Uniform Trade Secrets Act which California adopted in 1984 and a version of which has been adopted by over forty states. The California Uniform Trade Secrets Act, California Civil Code §§3426 - 3426.11, defines a "trade secret" as follows:
EPRI considers the Proprietary Information contained therein to constitute trade secrets of EPRI. As such, EPRI holds the information in confidence and disclosure thereof is strictly limited to individuals and entities who have agreed, in writing, to maintain the confidentiality of the Information.
                  "'Trade secret' means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program device, method, technique, or process, that:
: c.
(1) Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and (2) Is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy."
The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the following reasons. EPRI made a substantial economic investment to develop the Proprietary Information and, by prohibiting public disclosure, EPRI derives an economic benefit in the form of licensing royalties and other additional fees from the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information. If the Proprietary Information were publicly available to consultants and/or other businesses providing services in the electric and/or nuclear power industry, they would be able to use the Proprietary Information for their own commercial benefit and profit and without expending the substantial economic resources required of EPRI to develop the Proprietary Information.
: e.       The Proprietary Information contained therein are not generally known or available to the public. EPRI developed the Information only after making a determination that the Proprietary Information was not available from public sources. EPRI made a substantial investment of both money and employee hours in the development of the Propretary Information. EPRI was required to devote these resources and effort to derive the Proprietary Information. As a result of such effort and cost, both in terms of dollars spent and dedicated employee time, the Proprietary Information is highly valuable to EPRI.
: d.
: f.       A public disclosure of the Proprietary Information would be highly likely to cause substantial harm to EPRl's competitive position and the ability of EPRI to license the Proprietary Information both domestically and internationally. The Proprietary Information and Report can only be acquired and/or duplicated by others using an equivalent investment of time and effort.

Two of the surveillance capsules, installed at plant startup, remain in the vessel, while the third capsule was removed at approximately 8 EFPY, but was not tested. As Fermi 2 is not a host plant, the three (3) surveillance capsules have an ISP status designation of deferred (standby) per Reference 4.

Therefore, this ISP data is not used in the development of P-T curves.
For Fermi 2, the ISP representative weld, heat CE-2 (WM) (13253/12008), is the identical heat as the Fermi 2 lower shell axial weld heat (13253/12008). This heat was contained in two (2) BWR Supplemental Surveillance Program (SSP) capsules that have been tested and analyzed. It is noted that the maximum scatter in the fitted data falls within the 1-sigma value of 28°F from RG 1.99. BWRVIP-135 also provides best estimate chemistries that are used in the ART evaluation. The best estimate chemistry for ISP weld heat is defined as 0.21% Cu and 0.86% Ni. The CF from RG 1.99 is 206.6°F (Table CFSurvChem in Equation 1) and the fitted CF is ((323.68°F {E})) (CFFittedData in Equation 1). The Fermi 2 limiting vessel chemistry for this material is 0.26% Cu and 0.87% Ni, from plant-specific CMTRs. Using RG 1.99, the CF is 224.0°F (Table CFVesselChem in Equation 1). As the ISP weld material is identical to the vessel target material, the ART table evaluates the ISP weld material using an adjusted CF and is therefore permitted to reduce the margin term as defined in RG 1.99, Position 2.1.

As the ISP weld material is identical to the vessel target material, the ART table evaluates the ISP weld material using an adjusted CF and is therefore permitted to reduce the margin term as defined in RG 1.99, Position 2.1.
The CF for a weld material that has more than two (2) data points is determined by calculating an adjusted CF in accordance with RG 1.99. The adjusted CF is determined using the following equation:

For Fermi 2, the adjusted CF = (224.0°F / 206.6°F) * ((323.68°F = 351°F {E})).
For Fermi 2, the adjusted CF = (224.0°F / 206.6°F) * ((323.68°F = 351°F {E})).
As ((351°F {E}))is greater than 224°F, and the surveillance data is credible, the adjusted CF of ((351°F {E}))is used in the ART evaluation. This material was considered in determining the limiting ART for the P-T curves.

3.6           Beltline Weld Flaw Indications Three (3) flaw indications have been evaluated for the Fermi 2 vessel, occurring at weld 15-308 (axial weld) in the lower-intermediate shell (Shell #2).

3.6 Beltline Weld Flaw Indications Three (3) flaw indications have been evaluated for the Fermi 2 vessel, occurring at weld 15-308 (axial weld) in the lower-intermediate shell (Shell #2). Flaw #124 requirements bound those of Flaw #127 and Flaw #128. In addition, two (2) welding flaws were detected at weld 1-308 (axial weld) of upper shell (Shell #4) and were determined acceptable as they met the construction code acceptance criteria of ASME Code Section III NB-2500 and NB-5300.
A fracture mechanics evaluation was conducted using techniques consistent with the philosophy of Section XI of the ASME Code. The indication, Flaw #124, was modeled with length equal to 4.24 inches (along the weld thickness direction) and width equal to 2 inches. The long end of the indication is located 0.7 inches from the inside diameter (ID) surface, which includes a clad thickness of 0.3125 inches.

Therefore, the P-T curves bound the calculated values of KI; so, no additional shift of P-T curves is required. Because the calculated values of KI are less than the allowable fracture toughness (KIr), the indication is not expected to become a surface indication during future operation and the indication is acceptable in the as-is condition for operation over 52 EFPY (60 years) considering GNF3 NFI and 24-month cycle extension operating conditions.

The P-T curves for the heatup and cooldown operating conditions at a given EFPY apply for both the 1/4T and 3/4T locations. When combining pressure and thermal stresses, it is usually necessary to evaluate stresses at the 1/4T location (inside surface flaw) and the 3/4T location (outside surface flaw). This is because the thermal gradient tensile stress of interest is in the inner wall during cooldown and the outer wall during heatup. However, as a conservative simplification, the thermal gradient stress at the 1/4T location is assumed to be tensile for both heatup and cooldown. This results in the approach of applying the 6

This approach is conservative because irradiation effects cause the allowable toughness, KIr, at 1/4T to be less than at 3/4T for a given metal temperature. This approach causes no operational difficulties, because the BWR is at steam saturation conditions during normal operation, well above the heatup/cooldown temperature curve limits.

Therefore, the requirements of NB-2332 have been met, and there are no ferritic RCPB piping components that require consideration in the Fermi 2 P-T curves.
With respect to the concern regarding irradiation effects on RCPB piping, the N16 WLI beltline nozzles were assessed. As can be seen in Table B-5, the WLI nozzle exceeds 1.0e17 n/cm2 at the 1/4T location. It is further noted that the WLI piping have a thickness less than 2.5 inches and are fabricated from ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Therefore, this piping meets the conditions identified in ASME NB-2332(b) and does not require evaluation for fracture toughness.

Appendix A Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program In accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix H, Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Requirements, the first surveillance capsule was removed from the Fermi 2 reactor vessel after Cycle 7, during refueling outage (RFO) 7 in April 2000. This capsule was placed in the Spent Fuel Pool and has not been tested. The surveillance capsule contains flux wires for neutron fluence measurement, Charpy V-Notch impact test specimens and uniaxial tensile test specimens fabricated using materials from the vessel materials within the core beltline region.
As described in the Fermi 2 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Section 5.2.4.4, Surveillance Programs for the Reactor Pressure Vessel, the BWR Vessel and Internals Project (BWRVIP) Integrated Surveillance Program (ISP) will determine the removal schedule for the remaining Fermi 2 surveillance capsules. The Fermi 2 material surveillance program is administered in accordance with the BWRVIP ISP. The ISP combines the US BWR surveillance programs into a single integrated program. This program uses similar heats of materials in the surveillance programs of BWRs to represent the limiting materials in other vessels. It also adds data from the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Per the BWRVIP ISP, Fermi 2

GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC NEDC-33915P Revision 1 Affidavit Page 1 of 3 AFFIDAVIT I, Michelle P. Catts, state as follows:

(1) I am the Senior Vice President of Regulatory Affairs, GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC (GEH), and have been delegated the function of reviewing the information described in paragraph (2) which is sought to be withheld, and have been authorized to apply for its withholding.

(2) The information sought to be withheld is contained in GEH proprietary report NEDC-33915P, DTE Energy/Enrico Fermi Power Plant Unit 2 Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) up to 52 Effective Full-Power Years, Revision 1, dated May 2020.

GEH proprietary information in NEDC-33915P Revision 1 is identified by a dotted underline inside double square brackets. ((This sentence is an example.{3})). GEH proprietary information in figures and large objects is identified by double square brackets before and after the object. In each case, the superscript notation {3} refers to Paragraph (3) of this affidavit, which provides the basis for the proprietary determination.

(3) In making this application for withholding of proprietary information of which it is the owner or licensee, GEH relies upon the exemption from disclosure set forth in the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. §552(b)(4), and the Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C.

§1905, and NRC regulations 10 CFR 9.17(a)(4), and 2.390(a)(4) for trade secrets (Exemption 4). The material for which exemption from disclosure is here sought also qualifies under the narrower definition of trade secret, within the meanings assigned to those terms for purposes of FOIA Exemption 4 in, respectively, Critical Mass Energy Project v. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 975 F.2d 871 (D.C. Cir. 1992), and Public Citizen Health Research Group v. FDA, 704 F.2d 1280 (D.C. Cir. 1983).

(4) The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the reasons set forth in paragraphs (4)a and (4)b. Some examples of categories of information that fit into the definition of proprietary information are:

a.

Information that discloses a process, method, or apparatus, including supporting data and analyses, where prevention of its use by GEH's competitors without a license from GEH constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies;

b.

Information that, if used by a competitor, would reduce its expenditure of resources or improve its competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing of a similar product;

c.

Information that reveals aspects of past, present, or future GEH customer-funded development plans and programs, resulting in potential products to GEH;

d.

Information that discloses trade secret or potentially patentable subject matter for which it may be desirable to obtain patent protection.

GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC NEDC-33915P Revision 1 Affidavit Page 2 of 3 (5) To address 10 CFR 2.390(b)(4), the information sought to be withheld is being submitted to NRC in confidence. The information is of a sort customarily held in confidence by GEH, and is in fact so held. The information sought to be withheld has, to the best of my knowledge and belief, consistently been held in confidence by GEH, not been disclosed publicly, and not been made available in public sources. All disclosures to third parties, including any required transmittals to the NRC, have been made, or must be made, pursuant to regulatory provisions for proprietary or confidentiality agreements or both that provide for maintaining the information in confidence. The initial designation of this information as proprietary information, and the subsequent steps taken to prevent its unauthorized disclosure, are as set forth in the following paragraphs (6) and (7).

(6) Initial approval of proprietary treatment of a document is made by the manager of the originating component, who is the person most likely to be acquainted with the value and sensitivity of the information in relation to industry knowledge, or who is the person most likely to be subject to the terms under which it was licensed to GEH.

(7) The procedure for approval of external release of such a document typically requires review by the staff manager, project manager, principal scientist, or other equivalent authority for technical content, competitive effect, and determination of the accuracy of the proprietary designation. Disclosures outside GEH are limited to regulatory bodies, customers, and potential customers, and their agents, suppliers, and licensees, and others with a legitimate need for the information, and then only in accordance with appropriate regulatory provisions or proprietary and/or confidentiality agreements.

(8) The information identified in paragraph (2) is classified as proprietary because it contains the detailed GEH methodology for pressure-temperature curve analysis for the GEH Boiling Water Reactor (BWR). These methods, techniques, and data along with their application to the design, modification, and analyses associated with the pressure-temperature curves were achieved at a significant cost to GEH.

The development of the evaluation processes along with the interpretation and application of the analytical results is derived from the extensive experience databases that constitute a major GEH asset.

(9) Public disclosure of the information sought to be withheld is likely to cause substantial harm to GEH's competitive position and foreclose or reduce the availability of profit-making opportunities. The information is part of GEH's comprehensive BWR safety and technology base, and its commercial value extends beyond the original development cost.

The value of the technology base goes beyond the extensive physical database and analytical methodology and includes development of the expertise to determine and apply the appropriate evaluation process. In addition, the technology base includes the value derived from providing analyses done with NRC-approved methods.

GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC NEDC-33915P Revision 1 Affidavit Page 3 of 3 The research, development, engineering, analytical and NRC review costs comprise a substantial investment of time and money by GEH. The precise value of the expertise to devise an evaluation process and apply the correct analytical methodology is difficult to quantify, but it clearly is substantial. GEH's competitive advantage will be lost if its competitors are able to use the results of the GEH experience to normalize or verify their own process or if they are able to claim an equivalent understanding by demonstrating that they can arrive at the same or similar conclusions.

The value of this information to GEH would be lost if the information were disclosed to the public. Making such information available to competitors without there having been required to undertake a similar expenditure of resources would unfairly provide competitors with a windfall and deprive GEH of the opportunity to exercise its competitive advantage to seek an adequate return on its large investment in developing and obtaining these very valuable analytical tools.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

Executed on this 14th day of May 2020.

E ~121 1 ELECTRIC POWER RESEARCH INSTITUTE AFFIDAVIT RE:

Request for Withholding of the Following Proprietary Information Included In:

DTE Energy/Enrico Fermi Power Plant Unit 2, Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) up to 52 Effective Full Power Years (EFPY),

NEDC-33915, Revision 1 I, Neil Wilmshurst, being duly sworn, depose and state as follows:

I am the Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer at Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. whose principal office is located at 3420 Hillview Avenue, Palo Alto, California ("EPRI") and I have been specifically delegated responsibility for the above-listed Report which contains EPRI Proprietary Information that is sought under this Affidavit to be withheld "Proprietary Information". I am authorized to apply to the U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC") for the withholding of the Proprietary Information on behalf of EPRI.

EPRI Proprietary Information is identified in the above referenced report with text inside double brackets. Examples of such identification is as follows:

((This sentence is an example{El]l Tables containing EPRI Proprietary Information are identified with double brackets before and after the object. In each case the superscript notation {El refers to this affidavit and all the bases included below, which provide the reasons for the proprietary determination.

EPRI requests that the Proprietary Information be withheld from the public on the following bases:

Withholding Based Upon Privileged And Confidential Trade Secrets Or Commercial Or Financial Information (see e.g. 10 C.F.R. §2.390(a)(4))::

a.

The Proprietary Information is owned by EPRI and has been held in confidence by EPRI. All entities accepting copies of the Proprietary Information do so subject to written agreements imposing an obligation upon the recipient to maintain the confidentiality of the Proprietary Information. The Proprietary Information is disclosed only to parties who agree, in writing, to preserve the confidentiality thereof.

b.

EPRI considers the Proprietary Information contained therein to constitute trade secrets of EPRI. As such, EPRI holds the information in confidence and disclosure thereof is strictly limited to individuals and entities who have agreed, in writing, to maintain the confidentiality of the Information.

c.

The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the following reasons. EPRI made a substantial economic investment to develop the Proprietary Information and, by prohibiting public disclosure, EPRI derives an economic benefit in the form of licensing royalties and other additional fees from the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information. If the Proprietary Information were publicly available to consultants and/or other businesses providing services in the electric and/or nuclear power industry, they would be able to use the Proprietary Information for their own commercial benefit and profit and without expending the substantial economic resources required of EPRI to develop the Proprietary Information.

d.

EPRl's classification of the Proprietary Information as trade secrets is justified by the Uniform Trade Secrets Act which California adopted in 1984 and a version of which has been adopted by over forty states. The California Uniform Trade Secrets Act, California Civil Code §§3426 - 3426.11, defines a "trade secret" as follows:

"'Trade secret' means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program device, method, technique, or process, that:

( 1) Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and (2) Is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy."

e.

The Proprietary Information contained therein are not generally known or available to the public. EPRI developed the Information only after making a determination that the Proprietary Information was not available from public sources. EPRI made a substantial investment of both money and employee hours in the development of the Propretary Information. EPRI was required to devote these resources and effort to derive the Proprietary Information. As a result of such effort and cost, both in terms of dollars spent and dedicated employee time, the Proprietary Information is highly valuable to EPRI.

f.

A public disclosure of the Proprietary Information would be highly likely to cause substantial harm to EPRl's competitive position and the ability of EPRI to license the Proprietary Information both domestically and internationally. The Proprietary Information and Report can only be acquired and/or duplicated by others using an equivalent investment of time and effort.

I have read the foregoing and the matters stated herein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and belief. I make this affidavit under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America and under the laws of the State of North Carolina.

Executed at 1300 W WT Harris Blvd, Charlotte, NC being the premises and place of business of Electric Power Research Institute, Inc.

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 2

Application of GEH Topical Report for Fermi 2 Pressure-Temperature (P-T) Curves Incorporation of new fluence results for 52 EFPY Application of the Integrated Surveillance Program (ISP) testing and analysis results that are applicable to Fermi 2 P-T curves Application of Materials Engineering Branch (MTEB) 5-2 (currently Branch Technical Position (BTP) 5-3) resolution to the N16 water level instrumentation (WLI) forging material 3.1 Chemistry The vessel beltline copper and nickel values were obtained from Fermi 2 plant-specific vessel purchase order records, Certified Material Test Reports (CMTR), or are values previously approved by the NRC, and remain unchanged from previous submittals (Reference 5). Surveillance materials are evaluated using the adjusted chemistry factors obtained from BWRVIP-135 (Reference 3). Best estimate chemistries for other beltline materials were also considered from Reference 3 and however, none were applicable to Fermi 2.

The chemistry factors (CF) for all materials are calculated based upon the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 (RG 1.99, Reference 10).

3.2 Fluence The peak RPV inside diameter (ID) fluence at metal interface between the cladding and the RPV base metal used in the P-T curve evaluation for Fermi 2 at 52 EFPY is 9.92e17 n/cm2. This value was calculated using methods that comply with the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.190 (RG 1.190) (Reference 11) as discussed in Reference 1. This fluence applies to the lower-intermediate shell (Shell #2) plates and longitudinal axial (vertical) welds. The fluence at the elevation of girth weld between the lower shell (Shell #1) plate and lower-intermediate shell (Shell #2) is 5.74e17 n/cm2. This fluence also applies to the lower shell plates and longitudinal axial welds. The peak fluence at the bottom of N16 WLI nozzle is 3.59e17 n/cm2.

3.3 Initial Reference Temperature of Nil Ductility Transition (RTNDT)

The method for determining the Initial Reference Temperature of Nil-Ductility Transition (RTNDT) for all vessel materials is that defined in Section 4.1.2 of Reference 2. Initial RTNDT values for all vessel materials considered in developing the P-T curves are presented in tables in Appendix B.

The N16 WLI nozzle is evaluated for ART. As the WLI weld material is Inconel, for which fracture toughness evaluations are not required, only the WLI forging material is evaluated.

The determination of initial RTNDT for WLI forging material which was already submitted

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 3

to NRC is summarized as follows. The Combustion Engineering (CE) purchase specification for this material demonstrates a required test temperature of ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )),

consistent with the N16 Certified Material Test Reports (CMTR). However, insufficient information is available to determine the initial RTNDT. NRC MTEB 5-2, paragraph B.1.1(4) defines the method for determining initial RTNDT where limited Charpy V-Notch tests were performed at a single temperature, as is the case for the N16 WLI forging material. Testing for one N16 WLI forging material was performed at ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), with a minimum result of ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) and where the maximum results is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ))

45 ft-lbs. Therefore MTEB 5-2 states that the RTNDT may be calculated as 20°F above the test temperature; hence, the initial RTNDT is determined to be ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Testing for the second N16 material was performed at ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), but dropweight was not reported. The dropweight was considered to be ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), consistent with MTEB 5-2 guidance.

Therefore, the initial RTNDT for this heat is the greater of the dropweight (((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ))) and

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), shown in Table B-2. The resulting initial RTNDT for this material is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )).

3.4 Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART)

The ART values for 52 EFPY included in Appendix B are developed considering the latest BWRVIP Integrated Surveillance Program (ISP) published surveillance data available that is representative of the applicable materials in the Fermi 2 RPV (Reference 3). As the ISP plate material, heat C4114-2, is not identical to the target vessel material, the ISP data is not considered in the development of P-T curves. The ISP weld material, heat CE-2 (WM)

(Heat 13253/12008), is identical to the target vessel material (13253/12008). Therefore, the ISP weld data is considered in the development of P-T curves. The CF value for weld is updated with ISP data and used for the determination of ART. This ART is not limiting with respect to the ART.

3.5 Surveillance Program As discussed in Appendix A, Fermi 2 participates in the ISP. Two of the surveillance capsules, installed at plant startup, remain in the vessel, while the third capsule was removed at approximately 8 EFPY, but was not tested. As Fermi 2 is not a host plant, the three (3) surveillance capsules have an ISP status designation of deferred (standby) per Reference 4.

BWRVIP-135 (Reference 3) provides the representative surveillance data considered in determining the chemistry and any fitted or adjusted CFs for the beltline materials for Fermi 2.

Excerpt from Reference 3:

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 4

As seen above, the ISP representative plate, heat C4114-2, is not identical to any Fermi 2 vessel beltline plate. Therefore, this ISP data is not used in the development of P-T curves.

For Fermi 2, the ISP representative weld, heat CE-2 (WM) (13253/12008), is the identical heat as the Fermi 2 lower shell axial weld heat (13253/12008). This heat was contained in two (2) BWR Supplemental Surveillance Program (SSP) capsules that have been tested and analyzed. It is noted that the maximum scatter in the fitted data falls within the 1-sigma value of 28°F from RG 1.99. BWRVIP-135 also provides best estimate chemistries that are used in the ART evaluation. The best estimate chemistry for ISP weld heat is defined as 0.21% Cu and 0.86% Ni. The CF from RG 1.99 is 206.6°F (Table CFSurvChem in Equation 1) and the fitted CF is ((323.68°F {E})) (CFFittedData in Equation 1). The Fermi 2 limiting vessel chemistry for this material is 0.26% Cu and 0.87% Ni, from plant-specific CMTRs. Using RG 1.99, the CF is 224.0°F (Table CFVesselChem in Equation 1). As the ISP weld material is identical to the vessel target material, the ART table evaluates the ISP weld material using an adjusted CF and is therefore permitted to reduce the margin term as defined in RG 1.99, Position 2.1.

The CF for a weld material that has more than two (2) data points is determined by calculating an adjusted CF in accordance with RG 1.99. The adjusted CF is determined using the following equation:

(1)

For Fermi 2, the adjusted CF = (224.0°F / 206.6°F) * ((323.68°F = 351°F {E})).

As ((351°F {E}))is greater than 224°F, and the surveillance data is credible, the adjusted CF of ((351°F {E}))is used in the ART evaluation. This material was considered in determining the limiting ART for the P-T curves.

Should actual surveillance capsules be withdrawn and tested from the Fermi 2 RPV (e.g.,

status change to be an ISP host plant under the BWRVIP ISP), compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix H requirements on reporting test results and evaluations on the effects to plant operations parameters (e.g., P-T limits, hydrostatic and leak test conditions) will be in accordance with Section 3 of Reference3.

3.6 Beltline Weld Flaw Indications Three (3) flaw indications have been evaluated for the Fermi 2 vessel, occurring at weld 15-308 (axial weld) in the lower-intermediate shell (Shell #2). Flaw #124 requirements bound those of Flaw #127 and Flaw #128. In addition, two (2) welding flaws were detected at weld 1-308 (axial weld) of upper shell (Shell #4) and were determined acceptable as they met the construction code acceptance criteria of ASME Code Section III NB-2500 and NB-5300.

A fracture mechanics evaluation was conducted using techniques consistent with the philosophy of Section XI of the ASME Code. The indication, Flaw #124, was modeled with length equal to 4.24 inches (along the weld thickness direction) and width equal to 2 inches. The long end of the indication is located 0.7 inches from the inside diameter (ID) surface, which includes a clad thickness of 0.3125 inches.

At 52 EFPY, the leak test temperature is calculated to be ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) at ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` )) from Table 1. For these conditions, the allowable fracture toughness (KIr) is ((` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) and ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) the calculated value of stress intensity factor (KI), which is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). For the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), KIr is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

)) and ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) the calculated value of KI, which is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Therefore, the P-T curves bound the calculated values of KI; so, no additional shift of P-T curves is required. Because the calculated values of KI are less than the allowable fracture toughness (KIr), the indication is not expected to become a surface indication during future operation and the indication is acceptable in the as-is condition for operation over 52 EFPY (60 years) considering GNF3 NFI and 24-month cycle extension operating conditions.

3.7 Thickness Discontinuities For Fermi 2, there are four (4) thickness discontinuities in the RPV as follows:

between the bottom head upper and lower torus between the bottom head torus and the support skirt attachment between the bottom head torus and Shell #1 between Shell #1 and Shell #2.

There is also a thickness discontinuity between the top head dollar plate and torus; the P-T limits for the top head are determined considering this continuity in order to ensure that the vessel is adequately protected, or bounded.

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 6

An evaluation was performed for the vessel wall thickness transition discontinuities identified above. The Fermi 2 P-T curves bound the requirements due to the flaws discussed in Section 3.6, and the beltline thickness discontinuities discussed in this Section.

3.8 Pressure-Temperature (P-T) Curves The Fermi 2 P-T curves presented in this PTLR are based upon the GEH methodology accepted by the NRC in Reference 2. Selected explanations are presented below, and Appendix D includes sample calculations demonstrating P-T curve methodology.

The pressure head for the beltline hydrostatic test curve (Curve A) for Fermi 2 is ((` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` )). This is determined using the height of the vessel and the elevation of the bottom of active fuel. The full vessel pressure head is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). The pressure combining the internal pressure and pressure head is used for determining KI for the bottom head curve as discussed in Sections 4.3.2.1.1 and 4.3.2.1.2 of Reference 2.

In Reference 2, the P-T curves for the non-beltline region were developed for a ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) vessel with a nominal inside diameter of ((` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Because the Fermi 2 RPV bottom head geometry is different from a ((` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` )), it is necessary to confirm that the generic analysis of the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) applies to Fermi

2. The applicability of generic analysis data to Fermi 2 is shown as follows.

The P-T curve is dependent on the calculated KI value which is proportional to the stress ()

and the crack depth (a) as shown below:

Ka (2)

The stress is proportional to R/t (R = bottom head radius and t = bottom head thickness) and, for the P-T curves, crack depth, a, is t/4. Thus, KI is proportional to R/t. The generic curve value of R/t, based on the generic BWR/6 bottom head dimensions, is:

Generic:

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ))

The Fermi 2-specific bottom head dimensions are R = 127.38 inches and t = 7.38 inches minimum, resulting in:

Fermi 2-specific: R/t 127.38/ 7.38 47in Because the generic value of R/t is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), the generic P-T curve ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` )) when applied to the Fermi 2 bottom head.

The P-T curves for the heatup and cooldown operating conditions at a given EFPY apply for both the 1/4T and 3/4T locations. When combining pressure and thermal stresses, it is usually necessary to evaluate stresses at the 1/4T location (inside surface flaw) and the 3/4T location (outside surface flaw). This is because the thermal gradient tensile stress of interest is in the inner wall during cooldown and the outer wall during heatup. However, as a conservative simplification, the thermal gradient stress at the 1/4T location is assumed to be tensile for both heatup and cooldown. This results in the approach of applying the

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 7

maximum tensile stress at the 1/4T location. This approach is conservative because irradiation effects cause the allowable toughness, KIr, at 1/4T to be less than at 3/4T for a given metal temperature. This approach causes no operational difficulties, because the BWR is at steam saturation conditions during normal operation, well above the heatup/cooldown temperature curve limits.

For the core not critical curve (Curve B) and the core critical curve (Curve C), the P-T curves specify a coolant heatup and cooldown temperature rate of 100°F/hr for which the curves are applicable. However, the core not critical and the core critical curves were also developed to bound transients defined on the RPV thermal cycle diagram and the nozzle thermal cycle diagrams. The P-T limits and corresponding heatup/cooldown rates of either Curve A or Curve B may be applied while achieving or recovering from hydrostatic pressure and leak test conditions. Curve A may be used for the hydrostatic pressure and leak test if a coolant heatup and cooldown rate of 20°F/hr is maintained. Otherwise, the limits of Curve B apply when performing the hydrostatic pressure and leak test.

The Fermi 2 P-T curves are based upon an initial RTNDT of ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for the bottom head,

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for the upper vessel, an ART of ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for the plates and welds, and ((`

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for the N16 WLI nozzle. For Curve B, the N16 WLI nozzle requirements

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) on the beltline limited curves.

For Fermi 2, the N16 WLI nozzle is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for the beltline region for 52 EFPY. The WLI nozzle is evaluated using the appropriate stresses for the nozzle and shifting the baseline curve by the ART. Using the fluence discussed earlier, the P-T curves are beltline weld limited at all pressures ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for Curve A. For Curve B, the N16 nozzle requirements are bounding ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )).

In order to ensure that the limiting vessel discontinuity has been considered in the development of the P-T curves, the methods in Sections 4.3.2.1 and 4.3.2.2 of Reference 2 for the non-beltline and beltline regions, respectively, are applied.

In order to determine how much to shift the baseline non-beltline P-T curves, an evaluation is performed using Tables 4-4a and 4-5a from Reference 2. These tables define ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Each component listed in these tables is evaluated using its plant-specific initial RTNDT. The required temperature is then determined by ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), thereby resulting in the required T for the curve. As the upper vessel curve is initially based on the non-shifted

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), all resulting T values are compared to the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). The difference between the maximum T and ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) is used to shift the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). The same method is applied for the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). In this manner, it is assured that each curve bounds the maximum discontinuity that is represented.

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 8

For the Fermi 2 upper vessel curve, the maximum T value for pressure equal to ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` )) from the method described above is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

)). The initial required T-RTNDT for the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )); this is then adjusted by the Fermi 2 specific maximum FW nozzle initial RTNDT of ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )),

resulting in ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Comparing this to the other components bounded by the upper vessel curve, the limiting value is for the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). The required T-RTNDT for the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), which is added to the limiting ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). It is seen that the resulting T required for the ((` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). As ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ))is limiting, the Fermi 2 upper vessel curve is based on an RTNDT of ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). As noted above, this calculation was performed for each component shown in Table 4-4a of the Reference 2; only the limiting cases are discussed here.

For the Fermi 2 bottom head or CRD hydrotest and core critical curves (Curves A and C, respectively), the maximum T value from the method described above is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). The required T-RTNDT for the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )); this is adjusted by the Fermi 2 specific maximum ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), resulting in ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Comparing this to the remaining components represented by the bottom head curve, the required T-RTNDT is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), which is added to the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). It is seen that the resulting T required for the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). As ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), the Fermi 2 bottom head (CRD) curve is based on an ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` )). As noted above, this calculation was performed for each component shown in Table 4-5a of Reference 2; only the limiting case is presented here.

Appendix H of Reference 2 contains the details of an analysis performed to determine the baseline requirement (non-shifted) for the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). It can be seen in Section H.5 of Appendix H of Reference 2 that the stresses developed in this finite element analysis demonstrated that the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), resulting in a baseline non-shifted required T-RTNDT of

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Therefore, considering the determination of the required shift from the paragraph above for ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), calculations for all components listed in Table 4-5a of Reference 2 were compared to the CRD T, which is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` )) (where ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) materials). Therefore, the shift for the bottom head ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 9

The ART of the limiting beltline material is used to adjust the beltline P-T curves to account for the effects of irradiation. RG 1.99 provides the methods for determining the ART.

Appendix J of Reference 2 provides detailed results of an analysis performed for the WLI nozzle that provides the required stresses for the drill hole in the shell plate. These stresses were used to generate a specific curve applicable for the WLI nozzle to ensure that this location is bounded in the P-T curves. For Fermi 2, the N16 WLI nozzle is the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for the beltline region for 52 EFPY. The Fermi 2 P-T curves are N16 WLI nozzle requirements are bounding Curve A ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) and Curve B above

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )).

The Fermi 2 N16 WLI nozzle is a partial penetration design similar to that shown in Figure 1 in Appendix J of Reference 2, fabricated with a ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )).

Therefore, the evaluation is performed, consistent with the statement in Appendix J, by using the material properties and ART of the limiting forging material.

3.9 Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary (RCPB)

ASME Code Section III, NB-2332(b) states:

Pressure retaining material, other than bolting, with nominal wall thickness over 2-1/2 in. for piping (pipe and tubes) and material for pumps, valves, and fittings with any pipe connections of nominal wall thickness greater than 2-1/2 in. shall meet the requirements of NB-2331. The lowest service temperature shall not be lower than RTNDT + 100°F unless a lower temperature is justified by following methods similar to those contained in Appendix G.

All Fermi 2 ferritic reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) piping have wall thicknesses less than 2.5 inches. The lowest service temperature may be less than RTNDT + 100°F, however the methods of Appendix G have been followed to justify lower temperatures.

Therefore, the requirements of NB-2332 have been met, and there are no ferritic RCPB piping components that require consideration in the Fermi 2 P-T curves.

With respect to the concern regarding irradiation effects on RCPB piping, the N16 WLI beltline nozzles were assessed. As can be seen in Table B-5, the WLI nozzle exceeds 1.0e17 n/cm2 at the 1/4T location. It is further noted that the WLI piping have a thickness less than 2.5 inches and are fabricated from ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Therefore, this piping meets the conditions identified in ASME NB-2332(b) and does not require evaluation for fracture toughness.

3.10 Future Changes Changes to the curves, limits, or parameters within this PTLR, based upon new irradiation fluence data of the RPV, or other plant design assumptions in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), can be made pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59, provided the above

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 10

methodologies are utilized. The revised PTLR shall be submitted to the NRC upon issuance (Reference 2).

4.0 Operating Limits The pressure-temperature (P-T) curves provided in this PTLR represent steam dome pressure versus minimum vessel metal temperature and incorporate the appropriate non-beltline limits and irradiation embrittlement effects in the beltline region. Note that the P-T curves were developed without allowance or margin for instrument uncertainty or errors.

The operating limits for pressure and temperature are required for three categories of operation:

1.

Curve A: Pressure Test (Hydrostatic Pressure Tests and Leak Tests)

Curve A may be used during pressure tests at times when the coolant temperature heatup or cooldown rate is 20°F/hr during a hydrotest and when the core is not critical.

2.

Curve B: Non-Nuclear Heatup/Cooldown Curve B must be used whenever Curve A or Curve C do not apply. In other words, this curve must be followed during times when the coolant heatup or cooldown rate is greater than 20°F/hr during a pressure test and when the core is not critical.

Additionally, when performing low-power physics testing, Curve B must be followed. The heatup and cooldown rate is limited to 100°F/hr when using Curve B.

3.

Curve C: Core Critical Operation This curve must be used when the core is critical with the exception as noted in Item 2 above, during low-power physics testing activities. The heatup and cooldown rate is limited to 100°F/hr when using Curve C.

Complete P-T curves were developed for 52 EFPY. The P-T curves are provided in Figures 1 through 3, and a tabulation of the curves is included in Table 1.

Other temperature limits applicable to the RPV and controlled by the Technical Specification are:

Heatup and Cooldown rate limit during Hydrostatic and Class 1 Leak Testing:

20F/hour.

Normal Operating Heatup and Cooldown rate limit: 100 F/hour.

RPV bottom head coolant temperature to RPV coolant temperature T limit during Recirculation Pump startup: 145 F.

Recirculation loop coolant temperature to RPV coolant temperature T limit during Recirculation Pump startup: 50 F.

NEDO-33915 Revision 1 Non - Proprietary Information 11

RPV flange and adjacent shell temperature limit: 72 F.

5.0 Discussion The procedures described in References 1 and 2 were used in the development of the P-T curves for Fermi 2.

The method for determining the initial Reference Temperature of Nil-Ductility Transition (RTNDT) for all vessel materials is defined in Section 4.1.2 of Reference 2. Initial RTNDT values for all vessel materials considered are presented in tables in Appendix B.

For Fermi 2, the surveillance material, weld heat CE-2 (WM) (13253/12008), was considered using Procedure 1 as defined in Appendix I of Reference 2. This procedure was used because the target vessel material and the surveillance material are identical heats.

However, from Table B-5, the limiting material is N16 WLI nozzle forging whose ART is

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). This ART was used for the generation of P-T curves.

The ART of the limiting beltline material is used to adjust the beltline P-T curves to account for irradiation effects. Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 (RG 1.99) provides the methods for determining the ART.

The P-T curves for the non-beltline region were conservatively developed for ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) vessel with nominal inside diameter of ((` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). The analysis is considered appropriate for Fermi 2 because the plant-specific geometric values ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) by the generic analysis for the large ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). The generic value ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) to the conditions at Fermi 2 using plant-specific RTNDT values for the reactor pressure vessel.

For Fermi 2, the N16 WLI nozzle forging material is the limiting material for the beltline region for 52 EFPY whose initial RTNDT and ART are 30°F and ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )), respectively.

The generic pressure test P-T curve is applied to the Fermi 2 beltline curve by shifting the P vs. (T - RTNDT) values to reflect the ART value of ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for 52 EFPY. Using the fluence discussed above, the P-T curves are ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for Curves A, B, and C. Curve A is ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )); Curve B and Curve C are ((` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )).

In order to ensure that the limiting vessel discontinuity has been considered in the development of the P-T curves, the methods in Sections 4.3.2.1 and 4.3.2.2 of Reference 2 for the non-beltline and beltline regions, respectively, are applied.

Appendix A Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program In accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix H, Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Requirements, the first surveillance capsule was removed from the Fermi 2 reactor vessel after Cycle 7, during refueling outage (RFO) 7 in April 2000. This capsule was placed in the Spent Fuel Pool and has not been tested. The surveillance capsule contains flux wires for neutron fluence measurement, Charpy V-Notch impact test specimens and uniaxial tensile test specimens fabricated using materials from the vessel materials within the core beltline region.

As described in the Fermi 2 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Section 5.2.4.4, Surveillance Programs for the Reactor Pressure Vessel, the BWR Vessel and Internals Project (BWRVIP) Integrated Surveillance Program (ISP) will determine the removal schedule for the remaining Fermi 2 surveillance capsules. The Fermi 2 material surveillance program is administered in accordance with the BWRVIP ISP. The ISP combines the US BWR surveillance programs into a single integrated program. This program uses similar heats of materials in the surveillance programs of BWRs to represent the limiting materials in other vessels. It also adds data from the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). Per the BWRVIP ISP, Fermi 2

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )); all surveillance capsules are classified as Deferred.

Appendix G of the P-T curve LTR describes the process for considering a thickness discontinuity, both beltline and non-beltline. If there is a discontinuity in the Fermi 2 vessel that requires such an evaluation, the evaluation was performed. The affected curve was adjusted to bound the discontinuity, if required.

The thickness discontinuity evaluation demonstrated that ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

Appendix D Sample P-T Curve Calculations Beltline Water Level Instrumentation Nozzle Pressure Test (Curve A) for 52 EFPY KI for the discontinuity is determined considering the KI obtained from Table 7 of Appendix J of Reference.2 (for hydrotest). For 1055 psig, this KI is scaled by pressure as follows:

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ))

T-RTNDT is calculated in the following manner:

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ))

The ART is added to T-RTNDT to obtain the required T:

((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ))

This temperature can be found from Table 1 as it bounds the temperature requirements for upper RPV and beltline region.

Core Not Critical (Curve B) for 52 EFPY KI for the discontinuity is determined considering the KI obtained from Table 5 of Appendix J of Reference 2.

Correction Factor The total stress for the WLI nozzle exceeds the yield stress; therefore, the correction factor, R, is calculated to consider the nonlinear effects in the plastic region. The R factor adjustment for the WLI nozzle is based on the assumptions and recommendation of Welding Research Council (WRC)

Bulletin 175 (Reference 8) that provides the technical background for Appendix G (Fracture Toughness Criteria for Protection Against Failure) of ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code Section XI. WRC Bulletin 175 proposes the methodology how to estimate the stresses when the secondary and peak stresses calculated on an elastic basis exceed the yield stress. This is to consider the nonlinear effects in the local plastic region. However, for the application to WLI nozzle, ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) The technical detail for this method is described in Section 5.C.3 of WRC Bulletin 175. The applicability of this procedure to pressure vessel was studied in a Pressure Vessels & Piping (PVP) Conference paper (Reference 9). For example, the R factor under the pressure of 1055 psig is calculated below in accordance with the Equation 4-7 of Reference 2.

R

[ys - pm + ((total - ys)/30)]/(total - pm)

Feedwater Nozzle Calculations An evaluation was performed for the feedwater nozzle as described in Section 4.3.2.1.3 of the Reference 2. The first part of the evaluation is as described earlier, where it is assured that the limiting component that is represented by the upper vessel curve is bounded by the ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )). A second evaluation was performed using the Fermi 2-specific feedwater nozzle dimensions; this evaluation is shown below to demonstrate that the baseline curve is applicable to Fermi 2:

The factor F(a/rn) from Figure A5-1 of PVRC Recommendations on Toughness Requirements for Ferritic Materials, WRC-175 is determined where:

a = 1/4 * (tn2 + tv2) 1/2

((

tn = thickness of nozzle tv = thickness of vessel rn = apparent radius of nozzle = ri + 0.29*rc ri = actual inner radius of nozzle rc = nozzle radius (nozzle corner radius)

))

Therefore, a/rn = ((

A detailed upper vessel example calculation for core not critical conditions is provided in Section 4.3.2.1.4 of the Reference 2. Section 4.3.2.1.3 of the Reference 2 defines the baseline nominal KI to be ((` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` )) for the FW nozzle evaluation upon which the baseline non-shifted upper vessel P-T curve is based. It can be seen that the nominal KI from this Fermi 2 evaluation is ((
