TheIPEforCookNuclearPlantconcluded thattheISLOCAwastheaccidentthatcontributed theleasttotheoverallcoredamagefrequency.
Thecalculated ISLOCAinitiating eventfrequency wasapproximately 6.70E-07, andthecalculated probability ofISLOCAcoredamagewasapproximately 5.4E-08.Thecontribution tooverallcoredamagefrequency fromanISLOCAislessthan0.1%ofthe6.26E-05IPEcalculated coredamagefrequency perreactoryear.Itisseen,therefore, thatthecontribution fromanISLOCAeventatCookNuclearPlantisnegligible.

'~TOXSOOATheISLOCA.accident isde'scribed inSection5.3.2.5ofWASH.-1400, andthequantification ofitscoredamagefrequency, isSoundinAppendixV,Section4.4ofWASH-1400.
Thecoredamagefrequency calculated inWASH-1400 is4.00E-06/reactor year.WASH-1400 evaluated threepathwaysoftwocheckvalvesinseries,andassumedthatthe600psiLowPressureInjection System(LPIS),onceexposedtoRCSpressure, wouldfailandcreateapproximately a6"effective diameterLOCA.Nootheraccidentinitiation featuresormitigating actionsweremodeled.IntheCookNuclearPlantIPE,ninedifferent pathwaysforanISLOCAeventwereanalyzed.
Thesepathways(seeEnclosure tothisAttachment),
consisted ofeitherthreecheckvalvesinseries,twocheckvalvesandaclosedmotoroperatedvalve(MOV)inseries,ortwonormallyclosedMOVsinseries.AlthoughWASH-1400 lookedatcheckvalveleaktestingasasensitivity

Thus,isolation oftheLOCApathwayandpotentially successful mitigating activities arepossible.
TheIPEISLOCAinitiating eventfrequency wasapproximately anorderofmagnitude lowerthantheWASH-1400 coredamagefrequency (4.00E-06),
andtheIPEISLOCAcoredamagefrequency valuewasapproximately twoordersofmagnitude lowerthantheWASH-1400 values.Finally,toaddresstheimpactofremovingtheT/Srequirements andonlytesting12-SI-170L2, 12-SI-170L3, 12-RH-133, and12-RH-134 atarefueling outagefrequency, asensitivity runwasmadeinsupportofthissubmittal.
