u.s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 3 On April 9, 2013, NEI submitted Reference 4 to the NRC, requesting the NRC's agreement to delay submittal of some of the CEUS seismic hazard evaluation information so that an update to the EPRI (2004, 2006) ground motion attenuation model could be completed and used to develop that information. NEI proposed that descriptions of subsurface materials and properties and base case velocity profiles (items 3a and 3b in Section 4 of Reference 3) be submitted to the NRC by September 12, 2013, with the remaining seismic hazard and screening information submitted to the NRC by March 31,2014. In Reference 5, NRC agreed with this recommendation.

This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at elevation 562 ft, and the profile was modeled up to this elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Byron site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Byron Nuclear Generating Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Table 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at elevation 869 ft, which is the surface of finished grade, and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior.

These dynamic property models were weighted equally.
The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0 .3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTIF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Clinton site description-Rev. 1 The basic infonnation used to create the site geologic profile at the Clinton Power Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using infonnation documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Table 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at the surface (elevation 736 ft), and the profile was modeled up to the surface. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally. For dynamic properties of fill and compacted sand layers, modulus and damping curves were also represented with two models. The first model used soil curves taken from Reference 2, the second model used soil curves taken from References 3 and 4. These dynamic property models were weighted equally. To model the profile, rock modulus and damping curves from Reference 2 were paired with soil modulus and damping curves from Reference 2, and linear rock modulus and damping curves were paired with soil modulus and damping curves from References 3 and 4.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 LaSalle site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the LaSalle County Nuclear Generating Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Table 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at the surface (elevation 710 ft), and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Limerick site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Limerick Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference I, the SSE Control Point is taken to be at the top of Triassic lithofacies, elevation 204', and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

u.s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Oyster Creek site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point is not well-defined. As a result, the profile was modeled up to an elevation where the best-estimate shear-wave velocity exceeds 1000 fps, which occurs in the Cohansey Formation (see Table 1). For dynamic properties of sand and sediment layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used soil curves taken from Reference 2, the second model used soil curves taken from References 3 and 4. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Peach Bottom site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Peach Bottom Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point is taken to be the top of moderately weathered schist, and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior.

u.s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTIF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Three Mile Island site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point was judged to be at the surface of bedrock, elevation 280 ft. As a result, the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.
 
The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

6. EPRI Report 3002000704, Seismic Evaluation Guidance Augmented, Approach for the Resolution of Fukushima Near-Term Task Force Recommendation 2.1: Seismic, dated May 2013 On March 12, 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Reference 1 to all power reactor licensees and holders of construction permits in active or deferred status. Enclosure 1 of Reference 1 requested each addressee in the Central and Eastern United States (CEUS) to submit a written response consistent with the requested seismic hazard evaluation information (items 1 through 7) by September 12, 2013. On February 15, 2013, the NRC issued Reference 2, endorsing the Reference 3 industry guidance for responding to Reference 1. Section 4 of Reference 3 identifies the detailed information to be included in the seismic hazard evaluation submittals.

u.s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 3 On April 9, 2013, NEI submitted Reference 4 to the NRC, requesting the NRC's agreement to delay submittal of some of the CEUS seismic hazard evaluation information so that an update to the EPRI (2004, 2006) ground motion attenuation model could be completed and used to develop that information. NEI proposed that descriptions of subsurface materials and properties and base case velocity profiles (items 3a and 3b in Section 4 of Reference 3) be submitted to the NRC by September 12, 2013, with the remaining seismic hazard and screening information submitted to the NRC by March 31,2014. In Reference 5, NRC agreed with this recommendation.

The attachments to this letter contain the requested descriptions of subsurface materials and properties and base case velocity profiles for each of the Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) Stations. The information provided in the attachments to this letter is considered an interim product of seismic hazard development efforts being performed for the industry by EPRI.

The complete and final seismic hazard reports for EGC will be provided to the NRC in the EGC seismic hazard submittals by March 31, 2014 in accordance with Reference 5.

This letter contains no new regulatory commitments. If you have any questions regarding this submittal, please contact Ron Gaston at (630) 657-3359.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on the 12th day of September 2013.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Braidwood site description-Rev. 1 The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Braidwood Nuclear Generating Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at elevation 562 ft, and the profile was modeled up to this elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1, 2, and 3 are weighted 0.4,0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Byron site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Byron Nuclear Generating Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Table 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at elevation 869 ft, which is the surface of finished grade, and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior.

These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTIF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Clinton site description-Rev. 1 The basic infonnation used to create the site geologic profile at the Clinton Power Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using infonnation documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Table 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at the surface (elevation 736 ft), and the profile was modeled up to the surface. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally. For dynamic properties of fill and compacted sand layers, modulus and damping curves were also represented with two models. The first model used soil curves taken from Reference 2, the second model used soil curves taken from References 3 and 4. These dynamic property models were weighted equally. To model the profile, rock modulus and damping curves from Reference 2 were paired with soil modulus and damping curves from Reference 2, and linear rock modulus and damping curves were paired with soil modulus and damping curves from References 3 and 4.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Dresden site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Dresden Generating Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1.

As indicated in Table 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at elevation 515 ft, and the profile was modeled up to this elevation. For dynamic properties of soft rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally. The six base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figures lA (for Profiles 1,2, and 3) and IB (for Profiles 4, 5, and 6).

Profiles 1 through 6 are weighted 0.2, 0.15, 0.15, 0.2, 0.15, and 0.15, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Tables 2A (for Profiles I, 2, and 3) and 2B (for Profiles 4, 5, and 6).

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 LaSalle site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the LaSalle County Nuclear Generating Station is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Table 1, the SSE Control Point is defined at the surface (elevation 710 ft), and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior.

These dynamic property models were weighted equally. For dynamic properties of fill and compacted sand layers, modulus and damping curves were also represented with two models.

The first model used soil curves taken from Reference 2, the second model used soil curves taken from References 3 and 4. These dynamic property models were weighted equally. To model the profile, rock modulus and damping curves from Reference 2 were paired with soil modulus and damping curves from Reference 2, and linear rock modulus and damping curves were paired with soil modulus and damping curves from References 3 and 4.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1, 2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Limerick site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Limerick Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference I, the SSE Control Point is taken to be at the top of Triassic lithofacies, elevation 204', and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4,0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

1900-5000 3500-8000 N/A N/A N/A N/A 8 Finish grade elevation is nominally 217 ft MSL around the main power block. The elevation shown in the table represents original grade before excavation and backfill. Type I Fill was used for site grading around the main power block. UFSAR Section 2.5.4.2.2.5 states that the dynamic properties of Type I Fill have not been measured. The density is assumed to be 140 pcf in the design evaluations.

b The SSE and IPEEE HCLPF control point elevations are at the top of bedrock, at EI. 204 ft MSL.

C Bottom of the deepest foundation is at EI. 174 ft MSL, within the unweathered Brunswick lithofacies.

d UFSAR Section 2.5.4.2.1 indicates that the variation in compressional wave velocities in the immediate vicinity of the power block is significantly less than that over the entire site. The unbiased one-standard-deviation range is estimated to be 10950-12810 fps in the power block area.

e The ISFSI geotechnical investigation and UFSAR provide significantly different ranges for the bedrock shear wave velocity and compressional wave velocity.

Consequently, the reported values from each reference are reported separately.

u.s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Oyster Creek site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point is not well-defined. As a result, the profile was modeled up to an elevation where the best-estimate shear-wave velocity exceeds 1000 fps, which occurs in the Cohansey Formation (see Table 1). For dynamic properties of sand and sediment layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used soil curves taken from Reference 2, the second model used soil curves taken from References 3 and 4. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

The ISFSI geotechnical investigation [11] found groundwater at depths between 10 and 13 ft.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTTF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Peach Bottom site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Peach Bottom Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point is taken to be the top of moderately weathered schist, and the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior.

These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.

Three Mile Island Nuclear Station Unit 1 Descriptions of Subsurface Materials and Properties and Base Case Velocity Profiles

u.s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NTIF 2.1 Seismic Response for CEUS Sites September 12, 2013 Page 1 Three Mile Island site description The basic information used to create the site geologic profile at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant is shown in Table 1. This profile was developed using information documented in Reference 1. As indicated in Reference 1, the SSE Control Point was judged to be at the surface of bedrock, elevation 280 ft. As a result, the profile was modeled up to that elevation. For dynamic properties of rock layers, modulus and damping curves were represented with two models. The first model used rock curves taken from Reference 2, the second model assumed linear behavior. These dynamic property models were weighted equally.

The three base-case shear-wave velocity profiles used to model amplification at the site are shown in Figure 1. Profiles 1,2, and 3 are weighted 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3, respectively. Thicknesses, depths, and shear-wave velocities (Vs) corresponding to each profile are shown in Table 2.
