UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 190 TO RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-22 NORTHERN STATES POWER COMPANY MONTICELLO NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT DOCKET NO. 50-263
1.0 INTRODUCTION
By application dated September 2, 2015, (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS Accession No. ML15246A530), Northern States Power Company (NSPM, the licensee), requested changes to the technical specifications (TSs) for Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant (MNGP).
The proposed changes would revise TS Surveillance Requirement 3.5.1.3.b to require verification that the MNGP alternate nitrogen system (ANS) required pressure be greater than or equal to 1060 pounds per square inch gauge (psig) instead of greater than or equal to 410 psig as is currently stated.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
Title 10 of The Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 50.36(c)(3) states that SRs are requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met.
NUREG-0737, "Clarification of TM/ Action Plan Requirements," Item ll.K.3.28, requires long term (100 day) post-accident depressurization capability to assure long term shutdown cooling operability.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
As discussed in the license amendment request, the licensee determined that the current MNGP technical specification value for ANS is non-conservative. The non-conservatism exists based on non-conservative errors and deficiencies identified in the calculation that supports ANS operability. Upon discovery of the errors, the licensee implemented administrative controls to maintain ANS pressure above 1060 psig, 1n accordance with the guidance of U.S. Nuclear Enclosure 2
Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) Administrative Letter 98-10, "Disposition of Technical Specifications that are Insufficient to Assure Plant Safety" (ADAMS Accession No.
ML031110108). To correct the non-conservatisms in the technical specifications, the licensee submitted the September 2, 2015, license amendment request.
The ANS system provides automatic, safety-related, long-term, backup pneumatic supply upon loss of the nonsafety-related instrument air/nitrogen system distribution. It is split into an A and B train, which services various loads, including six safety relief valves (SRVs) associated with the automatic depressurization system (ADS), low-low set (LLS), and the alternate shutdown and manual depressurization functions.
The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's request to ensure it has no effect on the ability of the ANS system to perform its required ADS function. The NRC staff also reviewed the submitted information to ensure that the ANS system provides sufficient capacity to cycle the ADS valves five times at design pressure to satisfy Three Mile Island (TMI) action item 11.K.3.28 of NUREG-0737.
Operability of the ANS is based on the capability to provide sufficient volume to its safety and required nonsafety loads. The loads of the B train of ANS bound those served by the A train.
For that reason, the B train loads were used for calculation of the surveillance requirement pressure for ANS operability. The B train ANS loads consist of one ADS SRV, one LLS SRV, one manually operated SRV, four inboard main steam isolation valves, three T-ring seals on the containment purge and vent valves, and the hard piped vent system.
The licensee stated that a pressure switch in each ANS subsystem isolates the nitrogen supply from its loads when pressure decreases to 330 psig. To determine the required nitrogen bottle pressure for operability, the volume of nitrogen required to operate the loads was added to the volume of nitrogen remaining at the minimum pressure.
The licensee stated that an isentropic expansion of the nitrogen as it exits the bottles was assumed. This method is conservative to an isothermal expansion because it results in the lowest pressures in the ANS system. The Ideal Gas equation for isentropic expansion was used because the lower the pressure in the ANS system during operation of equipment, the more mass that will initially flow from the ANS tanks into the system. The required ANS load volume is added to the volume remaining in the nitrogen bottles at the time of low pressure isolation. A conservative isolation pressure of 500 psig was used which also allows additional margin for instrument error.
The NRC staff reviewed the description of the licensee's calculations in the amendment request, and verified that the ANS B train was capable of providing ten SRV actuations (five actuations for each of the two SRVs (one ADS and one LLS) supplied by ANS B train) supporting TMI action item ll.K.3.28 in addition to other system design functions. Thus, the NRC staff concludes that the proposed change to TS surveillance requirement 3.5.1.3.b is consistent with the MNGP licensing basis, and therefore is acceptable.
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the Minnesota State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment. The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The amendment changes a requirement with respect to the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20 and changes the SRs. The NRC staff has determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comment on such finding (80 FR 61483; dated October 13, 2015). Accordingly, the amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendment.
6.0 CONCLUSION
The Commission has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that: (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) there is reasonable assurance that such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
