1.0 DESCRIPTION

This letter proposes an amendment to Appendix A, "Technical Specifications (TS)," of the WBN Operating License, NPF-90. The proposed amendment affects several Technical Specification sections to allow relaxations of various Reactor Trip System/Engineered Safety Feature logic completion times, bypass test times, allowable outage times, and surveillance testing intervals previously reviewed and approved by NRC under Westinghouse WCAP-14333-P-A (Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) 418, Revision 2) and WCAP-15376-P-A (TSTF-411, Revision 1) .(WCAP-14333-P-A and WCAP-15376-P-A are henceforth referenced as WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376.)

The proposed amendment also incorporates approved TSTFs-169 and 311, which were incorporated into Revisions 2 and 3 of NUREG 1431, "Standard Technical Specifications Westinghouse Plants." 2.0 PROPOSED CHANGE The proposed changes, as approved in WCAP-14333 (TSTF-418, Revision 2)and WCAP-15376 (TSTF-411, Revision 1), allow increases in the bypass test times for instrumentation channels and Reactor Trip Breakers (RTBs); test completion times for instrumentation channels, logic cabinets, master and slave relays, and RTBs; and surveillance test intervals for instrumentation channels, logic cabinets, master relays, and RTBs.

Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays Function 2. TSTF-411.3.0 BACKGROUND The WBN TS were initially developed as Improved Standard Technical Specifications (ISTS) based on Revision 0 of NUREG 1431, "Standard Technical Specifications Westinghouse Plants," and proposed changes to the NUREG incorporated in Revision 1.The TSTF process is an industry and NRC controlled process for proposing and incorporating improvements to the ISTS. The revisions proposed by this amendment impact Technical Specifications 3.3.1, "Reactor Trip System (RTS)Instrumentation," 3.3.2, "Engineered Safety Feature Actuation E1-4 ENCLOSURE 1 System (ESFAS) Instrumentation," and 3.3.6, "Containment Vent Isolation (CVI) Instrumentation," and are based on four TSTFs (169, 311, 411 and 418). All of the above TSTFs have been incorporated into the current revision of NUREG 1431 (Revision 3.0 dated March 3, 2004).The initial issue of the WBN TS included the relaxation of RTS and ESFAS test times, allowed outage times (AOT) / completion times (CT), bypass test times (BT), and surveillance test intervals (STI) which were justified in the Westinghouse Owners Group (WOG) Technical Specification Optimization Program (TOP)document WCAP-10271-P-A and supplements thereto (References 11 and 12). The justification was based on the high reliability of the protection system equipment and the small impact of the changes on overall plant risk.WCAP-14333 (TSTF-418)

WCAP-14333 provides the justification for increasing the bypass test times and the completion times for RTS and ESFAS instrumentation.

The approach used in WCAP-14333 is consistent with that established by the WOG TOP, including fault tree models, actuation signals, component reliability, and most of the test and maintenance assumptions.

Several enhancements in modeling were implemented as discussed in the WCAP. The changes justified in WCAP-14333 are summarized in Table 3.1 below.Table 3.1 WCAP-14333 RTS and ESFAS Completion Time and Bypass Test Time Changes Component Completion Time Bypass Test Time Analog Channels 6+6 hours to 72+6 hours 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> Logic Cabinets 6+6 hours to 24+6 hours no change Master & Slave 6+6 hours to 24+6 hours no change Actuation Relays These improvements will allow additional time to perform maintenance and test activities, enhance safety, provide additional operational flexibility, and reduce the potential for forced outages related to compliance with the RTS and ESFAS instrumentation Technical Specifications.

Industry information has shown that a significant number of trips that have occurred are related to instrumentation test and maintenance activities, indicating that these activities should be completed with caution and sufficient time should be available to complete these activities in an orderly and effective manner.E1-5 ENCLOSURE 1 The NRC issued a Safety Evaluation on July 15, 1998, approving WCAP-14333.

Southern Nuclear Operating Company submitted a License Amendment Request on October 13, 1999, for the Vogtle Units 1 and 2 to adopt the relaxations that were generically approved in WCAP-14333.

As a result of the NRC review of this application, incremental conditional large early release probability (ICLERP) values were developed generically for all WOG plants. License amendments were issued for Vogtle approving the changes proposed in WCAP-14333.

WCAP-15376 (TSTF-411)

WCAP-15376 provides further improvements to the RPS, building on the approved changes of WCAP-10271 and WCAP-14333 and including changes to the fault tree models and incorporation of updated component failure probability data. WCAP-15376 provides the justification for increasing the bypass test time and the completion time for the reactor trip breakers and for increasing the surveillance test intervals for the reactor trip breakers, instrumentation channels, logic cabinets, and master relays of the RPS instrumentation.

The changes justified in WCAP-15376 are summarized in Table 3.2 below.Table 3.2 WCAP-15376 RTS and ESFAS Surveillance Test Interval and Completion Time Changes Component Surveillance Test Completion Time and Interval Bypass Time Analog Channels 3 months to 6 months No change Logic Cabinets 2 months to 6 months No change Master Relays 2 months to 6 months No change Slave Relays No change No change Reactor Trip 2 months to 4 months AOT: 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.Breakers Bypass Time: 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.The approach used in WCAP-15376 is consistent with the NRC's approach for using probabilistic risk assessment in risk-informed decisions on plant-specific changes to the licensing basis as presented in Regulatory Guides 1.174, "An Approach for Using Probabilistic Risk Assessment in Risk-Informed Decisions on Plant-Specific Changes to the Current Licensing Basis," and 1.177, "An Approach for Plant-Specific, Risk-Informed Decisionmaking:

Technical Specifications." The approach E1-6 ENCLOSURE 1 addresses the impact on defense-in-depth and safety margins, as well as an evaluation of the impact on risk. The risk evaluation considers the three-tiered approach as presented by the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.177 for the extension to the RTB completion time.TSTF-169 TSTF 169 combines the single loop and two loop Reactor Coolant Flow Low reactor trip functions (3.3.1-i0a and 10b) into one function.

Table 3.3.1-1 notes g and h associated with this function are deleted, Condition N description is revised and Condition X is no longer applicable to this function.

This change resolves an inconsistency with respect to the WCAP-10271 analyses by removing the potential for exceeding the AOT allowance evaluated in the WCAP.TSTF-311 The proposed change revises the Frequency of SR 3.3.1.14 for performing a TADOT for Turbine Trip on Low Fluid Oil Pressure and Turbine Stop Valve Closure (Functions 14a and 14b) .The LCO requires the Functions to be OPERABLE in MODE 1 above P-9 (50% RTP). The change will allow the test to be performed at power prior to exceeding the P-9 interlock instead of prior to reactor startup while continuing to ensure that the functions will be OPERABLE when required.4.0 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS 4.1 WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 This analysis follows the implementation guidelines provided by the WOG for WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 and addresses the conditions and limitations specified in the NRC's safety evaluations (SE) for the WCAPs. In addition, although not specifically listed as a condition in the SEs, one commitment is addressed as stated in the response to NRC RAI 18 (Reference 10).The analysis demonstrates the applicability to WBN of the generic analyses performed to support the changes.The approach used in this program and presented in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 is consistent with the approach established by WOG TOP. The changes justified in the WCAPs were evaluated using a probabilistic risk assessment approach.

The analyses included assessment of the impact of the changes on signal unavailability and plant risk. The justification for the acceptability of the changes was the small increase the changes had on plant risk. The probabilistic risk analysis, benefits of the program and E1-7 ENCLOSURE 1 conclusions, and the relationship of the Technical Specification changes to the analysis are discussed in the WCAPs.4.1.1 Risk Evaluation The changes being considered in this analysis were evaluated consistent with the three-tiered approach defined in Regulatory Guide 1.177. Tier 1 addresses PRA insights and includes the risk analyses and sensitivity analyses to support the proposed Technical Specification changes. Tier 2 addresses avoidance of risk-significant plant configurations.

Tier 3 addresses risk-informed plant configuration control and management.

4.1.1.1 Tier 1, PRA Capability and Insights The Vogtle Electric Generating Plant PRA model was used for the generic risk analysis documented in WCAP 14333 (Reference

2) and WCAP 15376 (Reference 3). Enclosure 4 addresses the applicability of the generic analysis to the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant. The remainder .of this section summarizes applicable information from references 2 and 3, and the associated NRC Staff Safety Evaluation Reports, References 18 and 21.WCAP 14333 The NRC evaluation of WCAP-14333 is documented in a Safety Evaluation Report (SER), Reference
18. The staff used a three-tiered approach in its evaluation.

The first tier evaluated the PRA model and the impact of the change on plant operational risk.The staff's review focused on the approach taken to develop a model and its capability to analyze the risk stemming from the proposed changes.Most of the fault trees used in the WCAP-14333 analysis came directly from the WCAP-10271 analysis that had been previously reviewed and approved by the NRC staff. Additional fault trees were developed as necessary to model the addition of operator actions either to manually trip the reactor or to initiate safety injection.

Major aspects of the PRA modeling used in the WCAP-14333 analysis were evaluated including data, screening and truncation limits, level of detail, sensitivity, and uncertainty.

Assumptions for the analysis are provided in Reference 2, paragraph 7.2. The NRC staff found these aspects of the PRA modeling to be reasonable.

The common cause failure approach and the approach to assess the unavailability of components due to maintenance activities were changed from the WCAP 10271 analysis to provide a more E1-8 ENCLOSURE 1 representative analysis.

These modeling approaches are discussed in Reference 2, paragraph 7.1.The risk quantification conservatively did not take credit for potential trip reduction due to the implementation of revised technical specifications.

Sensitivity cases were quantified to show the potential impact on plant safety due to trip reduction (Reference 2, paragraph 8.1).In response to a NRC staff request, Westinghouse performed sensitivity studies on several important parameters assumed in the risk analysis, i.e., human error probability, maintenance frequency, common cause failure probability, and ATWS mitigating system actuation circuitry (AMSAC) availability.

The studies indicated that the impact of the variation in those parameters on plant risk is insignificant (Reference 18).The NRC staff qualitatively considered the impact of the proposed TS changes on the risk from external events such as fire and earthquake events. From its review, the NRC staff found that the proposed TS changes will have only a very small impact on the risk from external events; that small impact on risk is acceptable to the NRC staff.The impact of the proposed changes on CDF and LERF are provided in TSTF-418, Revision 2, Table 1.3 (which presents the same information contained in Table 8.4 of WCAP-14333) and Table 1.4 (which presents the same information provided in the response to RAI Question 13 in OG-96-110, Reference 8), respectively.

The CDF and LERF values are provided for the pre-TOP, TOP, and the WCAP-14333 proposed changes. The ACDF and ALERF values are also provided referenced to pre-TOP and TOP conditions.

The results of a sensitivity analysis are also provided that credit a 0.5/year reduction in the reactor trip initiating event frequency due to reduction in the number of analog channel tests. The ICCDP and ICLERP values are provided in Table 1.5 of TSTF-418, Revision 2 (which presents the same information as in RAI Question 11 in OG-96-110).

The ACDF, ICCDP, ALERF, and ICLERP values provided in the WCAP and subsequent RAIs met the criteria of small changes in risk defined in RG-1.174 and 1.177. Based on the Tier 1 evaluation, the NRC staff found that the PRA model used for the proposed TS changes in WCAP-14333 is reasonable.

WCAP-15376 The NRC staff evaluation of WCAP-15376 is documented in a Safety Evaluation Report (SER), Reference

21. The PRA model used in E1-9 ENCLOSURE 1 WCAP 15376 is similar, but not identical, to the model used in WCAP-14333.

The WCAP-14333 model has been previously reviewed and approved by the NRC staff.In previous studies, the logic cabinets were modeled to the component level using generic data. In the WCAP-15376 analysis, the logic cabinets are modeled at the card level. This was done because industry-specific failure rate data is available at the card level. Westinghouse collected card failure data via an industry survey. The results of that survey are considered proprietary by Westinghouse.

In WCAP-15376 independent models were developed for selected RPS signals. These signals include safety injection; pressurizer pressure low interlocked with P-Il; auxiliary feedwater pump start signal from steam generator level io-io in one loop;reactor trip single source from pressurizer pressure high;reactor trip diverse source from pressurizer pressure high or over temperature delta T. The safety injection and reactor trip signals were evaluated with and without manual reactor trip. The proposed TS changes were evaluated both individually and combined with changes proposed in WCAP-14333 for the bounding SSPS plant.The results were consistent with those reported in WCAP-14333.

Assumptions for the analysis are provided in Reference 3, paragraph 8.3.2.A review of WBN maintenance records for SSPS determined that the failure data for SSPS cards was bounded by the component failure data and corrective maintenance intervals reported in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376.

Therefore, these analyses are considered applicable to WBN.Common cause failure modeling, based upon the Multiple Greek Letter (MGL) method, is described in reference 3, paragraph 8.3.1.The risk quantification conservatively did not take credit for potential trip reduction due to the implementation of the revised analog channel STIs in WCAP-10271 (Reference 3, paragraph 8.4).Section 8.4 of WCAP-15376 provides the risk analysis results for the proposed changes in CT and STI. The ACDF and ALERF values are provided in Tables 8.29 and 8.32, respectively, referenced to a base case which represents the changes previously approved in WCAP-14333.

9) provided the impact of the requested Completion Time change (24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> CT plus 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to reach MODE 3, or a total of 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />) on ICCDP and ICLERP for a El-10 ENCLOSURE 1 RTB undergoing preventative or corrective maintenance with the associated logic train inoperable for the bounding 2/3 logic.The risk metrics as identified in RG 1.174 and 1.177 were met for the proposed changes.The NRC staff found that the quality of the PRA was sufficient for the evaluation of the proposed changes.Cumulative Change WCAP-15376 provides the cumulative change to CDF from technical specification changes associated with both WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 (Reference 3, paragraph 8.4.4). The ACDF and ALERF values are cumulative from WCAP-10271 to WCAP-15376.

The ALERF acceptance criterion is satisfied.

The ACDF acceptance criterion going from WCAP-10271 to WCAP-15376 is slightly exceeded.

This is addressed in WCAP-15376 Section 8.4.4 and Table 8.33. The cumulative ACDF from pre-TOP conditions to WCAP-15376 conditions is discussed using the sensitivity analysis values from Table 8.4 of WCAP-14333 for 2/4 logic and 2/3 logic combined with the ACDF values from Table 8.29 of WCAP-15376.

The cumulative ACDF for the 2/4 logic is 5.7E-07 per year, which is close to but slightly exceeds the acceptance criterion of 5E-7. The cumulative ACDF for the 2/3 logic change is 1.1E-06 per year, which slightly exceeds the acceptance criterion.

However, at WBN, since the DCCP is only changing from the TOP to WCAP-15376 conditions (not pre-TOP), the ACDF acceptance criterion is satisfied.

Another consideration in support of meeting the ACDF acceptance criterion with the extended completion times is the avoidance of shutdown risk.4.1.1.2 Tier 2, Avoidance of Risk-Significant Plant Configurations Tier 2 requires an examination of the need to impose additional restrictions when operating with the proposed changes in order to avoid risk-significant equipment outage configurations.

WCAP-14333 Westinghouse performed an evaluation of equipment according to its contribution to plant risk while the equipment covered by the proposed changes is out of service for maintenance or testing in response to RAI Question 18. Westinghouse performed an importance analysis for 25 top events for each of the test or maintenance configurations associated with the proposed TS changes. The analysis determined the system importances for plant configurations with no ongoing test or maintenance activities (all components available) and, then, for plant El-11 ENCLOSURE 1 configurations with test or maintenance individually on analog channels, logic trains, master relays, and slave relays. It was assumed that during test or maintenance activities the corresponding component/train was unavailable.

The system importances for both cases were compared.

The importance rankings for systems did not change for the analog channels, master relays, or slave relays. For the case of a SSPS logic train in maintenance, the following systems had a relatively significant increase in their importance ranking: Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW), reactor trip, high pressure injection, low pressure injection, and containment cooling.The response to RAI Question 11 also discussed an inoperable logic train as the only configuration that would significantly impact core damage. Therefore, it is concluded that the only plant configuration with proposed TS changes implemented with a significant impact on CDF or the relative importance of other systems is one logic train inoperable.

Therefore, the Tier 2 limitations are only appropriate when a logic cabinet is out of service. There are no Tier 2 limitations when a slave relay, master relay, or other analog channel is out of service.WBN uses a risk matrix in plant procedure TI-124, "Equipment to Plant Risk Matrix" (Reference 15), to determine risk significant equipment outage configurations.

The matrix currently addresses trains of SSPS removed from service, and analog channels placed in trip or bypass (most testing at WBN is performed with the channel in bypass). With a train of SSPS removed from service, the risk matrix currently prohibits several systems including the reactor trip breakers and auxiliary feedwater system level control valves from being removed from service.Incorporation of the evaluation and results from WCAP-14333 at WBN will involve modifying TI-124 to discuss the implications of removing a logic cabinet from service and limit the simultaneous removal of Tier 2 functions from service. There will be no restrictions applied when a logic train is being tested under the 4-hour bypass allowance.

Entry into these conditions is not typically planned during power operation other than for surveillance testing. Since these Conditions are typically entered due to equipment failure, it follows that some of the following Tier 2 restrictions may not be met at the time of Condition entry. If this situation were to occur during the extended CT, the Tier 3 Configuration Risk Management Program discussed below will assess the emergent condition and direct activities to limit risk. There will be no Tier 2 limitations when a slave relay, master relay, or other analog channel is out of service.El-12 ENCLOSURE 1 The following restrictions are applicable to incorporate the evaluation and results from WCAP-14333: " To preserve ATWS mitigation capability, activities that degrade the ability of the AFW system, reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure relief system (pressurizer power operated relief valves (PORVs) and safety valves), AMSAC, or turbine trip should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.

  • To preserve loss of coolant accident mitigation capability, one complete emergency core cooling system train thatcan be actuated automatically must be maintained when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance." To preserve reactor trip and safeguards actuation capability, activities that cause master relays or slave relays in the available train to be unavailable and activities that cause analog channels to be unavailable should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.
  • Activities in electrical systems (e.g., AC and DC power) and cooling systems (e.g. essential service water and component cooling water) that support the systems or functions listed in the first three bullets should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.

That is, one complete train of a function that supports a complete train of a function noted above must be available.

  • To preserve capabilities to prevent large early releases, activities that degrade the ability of the containment spray system, air return fans, and ice condenser should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.

WCAP-15376 WCAP-15376, section 8.5, provides recommended Tier 2 restrictions when a RTB train is inoperable for maintenance.

These restrictions do not apply when a RTB train is being tested under the 4-hour bypass allowance.

Entry into a Condition where an RTB train is removed from service is not a typical pre-planned evolution during power operation, other than for surveillance testing. Since this Condition is typically entered due to equipment failure, it follows that some of the following Tier 2 restrictions may not be met at the time of Condition entry. If this situation were to occur during the extended 24-hour CT, the Tier 3 Configuration Risk Management Program discussed below will El-13 ENCLOSURE 1 assess the emergent condition and direct activities to limit risk.The following restrictions will be put in place:* The probability of failing to trip the reactor on demand will increase when a RTB train is removed from service;therefore, systems designed for mitigating an ATWS event should be maintained and available.

RCS pressure relief system (pressurizer power operated relief valves (PORVs) and safety valves), AFW flow (for RCS heat removal), AMSAC, or turbine trip should not be scheduled when a RTB is inoperable for maintenance.

  • Due to the increased dependence on the available reactor trip train when one logic train or one RTB train is inoperable for maintenance, activities that cause master relays or slave relays in the available train to be unavailable and activities that cause analog channels to be unavailable should not be scheduled when a RTB is inoperable for maintenance.
  • Activities in electrical systems (e.g. AC and DC power) and cooling systems (e.g. essential service water) that support the systems or functions listed in the first two bullets should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.

That is, one complete train of a function that supports a complete train of a function noted above must be available.

4.1.1.3 Tier 3, Risk-Informed Configuration Risk Management Tier 3 requires a proceduralized process to assess the risk associated with both planned and unplanned work activities.

The objective of the third tier is to ensure that the risk impact of out-of-service equipment is evaluated prior to performing any maintenance activity.

The following is a discussion of the program in place at WBN.At WBN, the following procedures control the risk evaluation process and aid in the avoidance of risk-significant plant configurations." Standard Programs and Processes (SPP) 7.1, "Work Control Process"" Technical Instruction (TI) 124, "Equipment to Plant Risk Matrix" El-14 ENCLOSURE 1 SPP-7.1 specifies the general responsibilities and standard programmatic controls for the work control process. This procedure applies to all work activities that affect or have the potential to affect a plant component, system, or unit configuration.

WBN's long-term maintenance plan is a product of the preventive and surveillance process and specifies the frequency for implementation of maintenance and surveillance activities necessary for the reliability of critical components in each system. An established 12-week rolling schedule includes the preliminary defense-in-depth assessment, which documents the allowable combinations of system and Functional Equipment Groups (FEGs) that may be simultaneously worked online or during shutdown conditions.

FEGs are sets of equipment that have been evaluated for acceptable out-of-service combinations.

They are used to schedule planned maintenance and establish equipment clearances.

Predetermined FEG work windows are established for online maintenance and outage periods. The work windows are based on recommended maintenance frequencies and sequenced to minimize the risk of online maintenance.

Work windows are defined by week and repeat at 12-week intervals.

The work windows ensure required surveillances are performed within their required frequency and that division/train/loop/channel interferences are minimized.

The WBN scheduling organization maintains a long-range schedule based on required surveillance testing of online activities and plant conditions.

The surveillance testing schedule provides the "backbone" for the long-term maintenance plan. Other periodic activities (preventive maintenance items) are scheduled with related surveillance tests to maximize component availability.

FEGs are used to ensure work on related components is evaluated for inclusion in the work window. Related corrective maintenance activities are also evaluated for inclusion in the work window provided by surveillance and preventive maintenance performance.

The inclusion of identified work in the FEG work window with the surveillance tests and preventive maintenance items maximizes component availability and operability.

The TI-124 risk assessment methodology is used for online maintenance activities.

For online maintenance, a risk assessment is performed prior to work window implementation and emergent work is evaluated againstthe assessed scope.El-15 ENCLOSURE 1 In general, risk is evaluated based upon the WBN Probabilistic Safety Analysis (PSA) and maintaining defense in depth relative to key safety functions.

The TI-124 risk assessment guidelines utilize the results of the WBN PSA. Other safety considerations, such as Technical Specifications, maintenance rule risk significant systems, structures, and components (SSCs), and significant changes in weather or offsite power availability, are considered in the site-specific configuration risk management program (CRMP) and are used to determine which system, component, and FEG combinations may be worked online. In addition, an assessment of scheduled activities is performed before implementation of a work window. The assessment includes reviews for the following: " The schedule is evaluated against the risk bases outlined in the WBN PSA.* Maximizing safety (reducing risk) when performing online work.* Avoidance of recurrent entry into a specific limiting condition for operation (LCO) for multiple activities.

Activities that require entering the same LCO are combined to limit the number of times an LCO must be established, thus maximizing the equipment's availability." If the risk associated with a particular activity cannot be determined, site engineering is requested to perform a risk assessment." Implementing compensatory measures and requirements for management authorization for higher risk configurations.

Paragraph (a) (4) of 10 CFR 50.65, "Requirements for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at Nuclear Power Plants," became effective in November 2000. The requirements of (a) (4) and the CRMP as defined in RG 1.177 appear to overlap in certain areas.This was acknowledged by NRC in the "Statement of Considerations" for 10 CFR 50.65 (Federal Register:

July 19, 1999, Volume 64, Number 137). In this statement, NRC indicated that, after the revision to 10 CFR 50.65 is effective, NRC will expeditiously support licensee requests to remove the CRMP requirements from plant TS. Considering this, a description of the CRMP will not be added to the Technical Specifications.

El-16 ENCLOSURE 1 4.1.1.4 Maintenance Rule Control In accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.177, paragraph 3.2, corrective action for RPS/ESFAS hardware within the scope of the proposed TS changes which fails to meet performance criteria will include an evaluation to determine if the AOT or STI should be decreased.

4.1.2 Safety

Evaluation Conditions NRC approval of WCAP-14333 was subject to the following conditions requiring plant-specific information:

1. Confirm the applicability of the WCAP-14333 analyses for the plant.2. Address the Tier 2 and Tier 3 analyses including the Configuration Risk Management Program insights and confirm that these insights are incorporated into the decision making process before taking equipment out of service.NRC approval of WCAP-15376 was subject to the following conditions requiring plant-specific information:
1. Confirm the applicability of the topical report to the plant and perform a plant-specific assessment of containment failures and address any design or performance differences that may affect the proposed changes.2. Address the Tier 2 and Tier 3 analyses including risk significant configuration insights and confirm that these insights are incorporated into the plant-specific configuration risk management program.3. The risk impact of concurrent testing of one logic cabinet and associated reactor trip breaker needs to be evaluated on a plant-specific basis to ensure conformance with the WCAP-15376-P, Rev. 0 evaluation, and RGs 1.174 and 1.177.4. To ensure consistency with the reference plant, the model assumptions for human reliability in WCAP-15376-P, Rev. 0 should be confirmed to be applicable to the plant-specific configuration.
5. For future digital upgrades with increased scope, integration and architectural differences beyond that of Eagle 21, the staff finds the generic applicability of WCAP-15376-P, Rev. 0 to future digital systems not clear and should be considered on a plant-specific basis.El-17 ENCLOSURE 1 6. An additional commitment from the response to NRC RAI Question 18 in Reference 10 requires that each plant review their setpoint calculation methodology to ascertain the impact of extending the COT Surveillance Frequency from 92 days to 184 days.WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 SE Condition 1, Topical Report Applicability Determination In order to address SE Condition 1 for both WCAPs, Westinghouse issued implementation guidelines for licensees to confirm the analyses are applicable to their plant. The applicability evaluation is provided in Enclosure 4.WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 SE Condition 2, Tier 2 and Tier 3 Analyses SE Condition 2 for both topical reports is addressed above under the Tier 2 and Tier 3 discussions.

WCAP-15376 SE Condition 3, Concurrent Testing Risk The response to NRC RAI Question 4 in Reference 9 provided the ICCDP for the configuration where both the logic train and associated RTB are out of service for preventive maintenance for a total time of 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />, which includes a CT of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> plus 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to enter Mode 3.The ICCDP for 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> of unavailability for this configuration is 3.2E-07, which meets the RG 1.177 acceptance criteria of less than 5E-07. Since this ICCDP value is based on the logic train and reactor trip breaker being out of service concurrently for 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />, bypassing one logic train and associated RTB train for 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for testing will also meet the RG 1.177 ICCDP guideline.

SE Condition 3 is addressed by demonstrating the applicability of the WCAP-15376 analysis as discussed in the response to SE Condition 1 (see Enclosure 4).WCAP-15376 SE Condition 4, Human Reliability The evaluation of the applicability of the model assumptions for human reliability in WCAP-15376 to WBN are provided in Enclosure 4.WCAP-15376 SE Condition 5, Future Digital Upgrades This condition does not currently apply to WBN. Future digital upgrades will require separate evaluation.

El-18 ENCLOSURE 1 WCAP-15376 RAI Question 18 Commitment, Setpoint Calculations The response to this RAI in Reference 9 noted that plant-specific RTS and ESFAS setpoint uncertainty calculations and assumptions, including instrument drift, will be reviewed to determine the impact of extending the Surveillance Frequency of the COT from 92 days to 184 days.The rack drift terms used in the applicable WBN RTS and ESFAS setpoint calculations are documented in WCAP-12096 (Reference 13). For the Eagle 21 process protection channels, the calculations include a conservative one-year drift allowance.

The Eagle 21 system is designed to continuously perform self-diagnostics and self-calibration of analog input signals so that drift is continuously corrected.

This feature will not be affected by the proposed changes to the COT frequency.

Further, a board which failed auto calibration would be alarmed by the system. Based on the use of a conservative drift allowance in the setpoint calculation and the continuous auto-calibration of the Eagle 21 channels, it is concluded that the setpoint calculations for the Eagle 21 channels are not impacted by the increase in the COT surveillance frequency.

The rack drift value used for the Power Range Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS) racks is a generic value for analog channels as documented in Reference

13. In support of the COT extension from 92 days to 184 days, WBN analyzed drift data for NIS Technical Specification reactor trip and permissive functions using a large population (more than 500 data points) of as-found and as-left values from COT performances over more than four fuel cycles. Typically, no adjustments were required for long intervals, i.e., since the bistable setting was found to be within the as-left tolerance, it was left in the as-found state, in some instances for as long as three cycles without adjustment.

In no case did the as-found value exceed the acceptable as-found allowance.

In only two cases did the as-found values exceed the acceptable as-left allowance, thereby requiring adjustment to within the as-left allowance, and in both instances, the as-found value was still within the acceptable as-found allowance.

The data shows that drift is minimal for these channels and is well within the uncertainty allowance.

Therefore, it is concluded that increasing the COT surveillance interval will have no impact on the Power Range NIS setpoint calculation.

4.1.3 Plant-Specific Evaluations of Functions not Evaluated Generically in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 Insert 7 of TSTF-411 Revision 1 and Insert 14 of TSTF-418 Revision 2 state that in order to apply TS relaxations to plant-El-19 ENCLOSURE 1 specific functions not evaluated generically, licensees must submit plant-specific evaluations for NRC review and approval.Section 4.0 of TSTF-418 states that several utilities completed plant-specific evaluations to demonstrate that the changes in WCAP-10271 and its supplements are applicable to functions not generically evaluated.

As noted in Section 11.0 of both WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376, as well as in TSTF-418, the changes approved in the WCAPs are also applicable to those plant-specific functions for which evaluations have been performed to demonstrate applicability of WCAP-10271.

Therefore, for those cases, additional plant-specific evaluations are not required to demonstrate applicability of WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 to these plant-specific functions.

As indicated previously, the initial issue of the WBN TS included the changes which were justified in WCAP-10271 and its supplements (References 11 and 12). An evaluation of the applicability of the generic analyses to the WBN RTS and ESFAS functions was performed and is documented as Reference 9 of TS Bases 3.3.1 and Reference 10 of TS Bases 3.3.2. This applicability evaluation documented an additional evaluation of those WBN functions which were not generically evaluated in WCAP-10271 and demonstrated applicability of the WCAP-10271 analyses to certain plant-specific functions.

These plant-specific evaluations included the Eagle 21 digital process protection system and, therefore, the changes in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 are also applicable to Eagle 21.Based on the above, the changes in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 are applicable to the following plant-specific functions which were not generically evaluated:

(1) Reactor Trip on SG Water Level Low-Low with Trip Time Delay (Function 3.3.1-13), (2) Auxiliary Feedwater actuation on SG Water Level Low-Low with Trip Time Delay (Function 3.3.2-6b), (3) the Automatic Switchover to Containment Sump on Refueling Water Storage Tank Level Low coincident with Safety Injection and Containment Sump Level High (Function 3.3.2-7b), and (4) Feedwater Isolation on Main Steam Valve Vaults Water Level High (Functions 3.3.2-5d and 5e).4.2 Other TSTFs TSTF-169 TSTF-169 combines the single loop and two loop Reactor Coolant Flow Low reactor trip functions (3.3.1-10a and 10b) into one function.

In addition, Table 3.3.1-1 notes g and h associated with this function are no longer required and are deleted, the Condition N description is revised, and Condition X is no longer applicable to this function.El-20 ENCLOSURE 1 This change resolves an inconsistency with respect to the WCAP-10271 analyses by removing the potential for exceeding the AOT allowance evaluated in the WCAP. As described in the TSTF justification, if a single Reactor Coolant Flow channel is inoperable above P-8, Action N.1 requires the channel to be tripped within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or power reduced below P-8 within 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br />. If the channel cannot be tripped, the Applicability of the two-loop trip function is entered (below P-8) and Action X.1 again requires the channel to be tripped within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or power reduced below P-7 (per Action X.2) in 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. Since many loop components are common to both trip functions, sequential entry into N then X would allow a 22 hour2.546296e-4 days <br />0.00611 hours <br />3.637566e-5 weeks <br />8.371e-6 months <br /> AOT when only a 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> AOT for maintenance was evaluated in WCAP-10271 and its supplements.

A 22 hour2.546296e-4 days <br />0.00611 hours <br />3.637566e-5 weeks <br />8.371e-6 months <br /> allowance is also inconsistent with the TOPS Guidelines, WOG-90-18, dated 11/1/90. The changes to AOT and BT are justified by WCAP-14333.

TSTF-311 The proposed change revises the Frequency of SR 3.3.1.14 for performing a TADOT for Turbine Trip on Low Fluid Oil Pressure and Turbine Stop Valve Closure (Functions 14a and 14b) to be consistent with the applicability for these Functions.

The LCO requires the Functions to be OPERABLE in MODE 1 above P-9 (50% RTP). Currently the test is required to be performed prior to reactor startup if it has not been performed within the previous 31 days. The change will allow the test to be performed at power prior to exceeding the P-9 interlock instead of prior to reactor startup.Since these reactor-trip-on-turbine-trip Functions are not required until reactor power is above the P-9 setpoint, testing in MODE 1 prior to reaching 50% power will continue to ensure the Functions will be OPERABLE when required.

These Functions can be tested at power with minimal perturbations to plant systems.4.3 Deviations from Approved Changes WCAP-14333 (TSTF-418)

TSTF-418 Revision 2, Inserts 1, 2 and 3 were not included in proposed change based on the following justification:

  • The Functions do not have installed bypass capability.
  • The bypass test Note is already included in the WBN TS.El-21 ENCLOSURE 1" For 3.3.1 Condition Q, Reactor Trip Breakers (Function 17), the changes in TSTF-418 were superseded by TSTF-411, which did not include Note 3 (Insert 3). WBN is implementing option 3 of TSTF-411 Insert 6." WBN TS does not have a reactor trip function for RCP Breaker Position (Function 3.3.1-11 in TSTF-418) or the applicable Conditions L (existing) and M (proposed).

The TSTF-418 changes to TS Section 3.3.5, Loss of Power (LOP)Diesel Generator Start Instrumentation, do not apply to WBN and, therefore, are not implemented, due to differences between the WBN TS and NUREG 1431 format of Section 3.3.5. The Completion Time for Required Action A.1 will remain 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.WCAP-15376 (TSTF-411)

TSTF-411 Revision 1 change in frequency for SR 3.3.1.8, which applies to the source and intermediate range flux instrumentation, was not included in the proposed change because the Gamma-Metrics equipment used at WBN for the source and intermediate ranges was not evaluated in the WCAP.TSTF-169 As a result of combining the single loop and two loop Reactor Coolant Flow Low reactor trip functions into one function, Condition N for the single loop function was deleted and the remaining Conditions of 3.3.1 were renumbered in the TSTF. The WBN implementation of this change retains Condition N for the function and Condition X is no longer applicable to the function.Condition X is still applicable to other Functions.

TSTF-311 No deviations.

5.0 REGULATORY

SAFETY ANALYSIS The proposed amendment would revise TS sections 3.3.1, 3.3.2 and 3.3.6 to implement relaxations of Reactor Trip System and Essential Safety Features Actuation System test times and test intervals previously reviewed and approved by the NRC under Westinghouse WCAP-14333-P-A (TSTF-418, Revision 2) and WCAP-15376-P-A (TSTF-411, Revision 1). The proposed amendment also incorporates approved TSTFs-169 and 311, which were incorporated into Revisions 2 and 3 of NUREG 1431, "Standard Technical Specifications Westinghouse Plants." El-22 ENCLOSURE 1 It is important to note that Diablo Canyon (another Eagle 21 plant) has submitted (February 13, 2004 and received approval (January 5, 2005) of similar changes as proposed in this amendment request.5.1 No Significant Hazards Consideration The following evaluates the proposed amendment to determine whether a significant hazards consideration exists by addressing the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c): 1. Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

The proposed changes do not result in any modifications to RTS and ESFAS hardware, design requirements, or functions.

No system operational parameters are affected.

The protection system will continue to perform the intended design functions consistent with the design bases and accident analyses.

The proposed changes will not modify any system interfaces and, therefore, could not increase the likelihood of an accident described in the UFSAR. The proposed amendment will not change, degrade or prevent actions, or alter any assumptions previously made in evaluating the radiological consequences of an accident described in the UFSAR.Plant-specific evaluations confirm the applicability of the WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 analyses to WBN. Implementation of the approved changes is in accordance with the conditions of the NRC safety evaluations for these reports and will result in an insignificant risk impact.The proposed changes to the completion time, bypass test time, and surveillance frequencies reduce the potential for inadvertent reactor trips and spurious actuations and, therefore, do not increase the probability of any accident previously evaluated.

The proposed changes to the allowed completion time, bypass test time, and surveillance frequencies do not change the response of the plant to any accidents and have an insignificant impact on the reliability of the RTS and ESFAS signals. The RTS and ESFAS will remain highly reliable and the proposed changes will not result in a significant increase in the risk of plant operation.

This is demonstrated by showing that the impact on plant safety as measured by core damage frequency is less than 1.OE-06 per year and the impact on large early release frequency is less than 1.0E-07 per year. In addition, for the completion time El-23 ENCLOSURE 1 change, the incremental conditional core damage probabilities and incremental conditional large early release probabilities are less than 5.OE-07 and 5.OE-08, respectively.

These changes meet the acceptance criteria in Regulatory Guides 1.174 and 1.177. Therefore, since the RTS and ESFAS will continue to perform their functions with high reliability as originally assumed, and the increase in risk as measured by CDF, LERF, ICCDP, and ICLERP is within the acceptance criteria of existing regulatory guidance, there will not be a significant increase in the consequences of any accidents.

The proposed changes do not adversely affect accident initiators or precursors nor alter the design assumptions, conditions, or configuration of the facility or the manner in which the plant is operated and maintained.

The proposed changes do not alter or prevent the ability of structures, systems, and components from performing their intended function to mitigate the consequences of an initiating event within the assumed acceptance limits. The proposed changes do not affect the source term, containment isolation, or radiological release assumptions used in evaluating the radiological consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

Further, the proposed changes do not increase the types or amounts of radioactive effluent that may be released offsite, nor significantly increase individual or cumulative occupational/public radiation exposures.

The proposed changes are consistent with the safety analysis assumptions and resultant consequences.

Therefore, this change does not increase the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2. Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

The proposed amendment does not require any design changes, physical modifications or changes in normal operation of the RTS and ESFAS instrumentation.

Existing setpoints will be maintained.

The changes do not affect functional performance requirements of the instrumentation.

No changes are required to accident analysis assumptions.

The changes do not introduce different malfunctions, failure modes, or limiting single failures.

The changes to the completion time, bypass test time, and surveillance frequency do not change any existing accident scenarios nor create any new or different accident scenarios.

El-24 ENCLOSURE 1 Therefore, this change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.

3. Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?The proposed changes do not alter the manner in which safety limits, limiting safety system settings, or limiting conditions for operation are determined.

The safety analysis acceptance criteria are not impacted by these changes.Redundant RTS and ESFAS trains are maintained, and diversity with regard to the signals that provide reactor trip and engineered safety features actuation is also maintained.

All signals credited as primary or secondary and all operator actions credited in the accident analyses will remain the same. The proposed changes will not result in plant operation in a configuration outside the design basis. The calculated impact on risk is insignificant and meets the acceptance criteria contained in Regulatory Guides 1.174 and 1.177. Although there was no attempt to quantify any positive human factors benefit due to increased completion time, bypass test time, and surveillance frequencies, it is expected that there would be a net benefit due to a reduced potential for spurious reactor trips and actuations associated with testing.Therefore, it is concluded that this change does not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.Conclusion Based on the above, it is concluded that operation of WBN Unit 1 in accordance with the proposed change to the Technical Specifications does not involve a significant hazards consideration.

5.2 Applicable

Regulatory Requirements/Criteria The regulatory bases and guidance documents associated with the RTS and ESFAS functions affected by the proposed changes include: GDC-13 requires that instrumentation shall be provided to monitor variables and systems over their anticipated ranges for normal operation, for anticipated operational occurrences, and for accident conditions as appropriate to assure adequate safety, including those variables and systems that can affect the fission process, the integrity of the reactor core, the reactor coolant pressure boundary, and the containment and its associated El-25 ENCLOSURE 1 systems.GDC-20 requires that the protection system(s) shall be designed (1) to initiate automatically the operation of appropriate systems including the reactivity control systems, to assure that specified acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded as a result of anticipated operational occurrences and (2) to sense accident conditionsand to initiate the operation of systems and components important to safety.GDC-21 requires that the protection system(s) shall be designed for high functional reliability and testability.

GDC-22 through GDC-25 and GDC-29 require various design attributes for the protection system(s), including independence, safe failure modes, separation from control systems, requirements for reactivity control malfunctions, and protection against anticipated operational occurrences.

Regulatory Guide 1.22 discusses an acceptable method of satisfying GDC-20 and GDC-21 regarding the periodic testing of protection system actuation functions.

These periodic tests should duplicate, as closely as practicable, the performance that is required of the actuation devices in the event of an accident.Regulatory Guide 1.174 describes a method for using probabilistic risk assessment in risk-informed decisions on changes to the licensing basis. Regulatory Guide 1.177 addresses evaluating the impact of technical specification changes on defense-in-depth and safety margins and describes a three-tiered approach to the risk evaluation.

Implementation of the proposed changes will not compromise compliance with the requirements of these documents.

Based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2)such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.6.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION The proposed change does not involve a significant hazards consideration, a significant change in the types of or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, or a significant increase in individual or El-26 ENCLOSURE 1 cumulative occupational radiation exposure.

Accordingly, the proposed change meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c) (10). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.

This evaluation follows the implementation guidelines issued by Westinghouse to address this condition.

Applicability Evaluation

](a~c The information provided confirms the applicability to WBN of the generic analyses of WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376.

WBN component failure data was not included in the reports since the data was collected prior to commencement of commercial operation.

A review of maintenance records for approximately four recent operating cycles shows that the component failure data and corrective maintenance intervals reported in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 are representative of WBN and, therefore, the analyses are considered to be applicable to WBN.Containment Failure Assessment I (a, c)E5-1 ENCLOSURE 5 Non-Proprietary Version The WBN PSA includes all credible containment failure modes for an ice condenser containment.

Thus, the PSA provides the means to assess the impact of the proposed technical specification changes upon LERF. The appropriate risk measure to evaluate the impact on LERF is the Conditional Large Early Release Probability (CLERP).CLERP is defined as the conditional probability, given a core damage accident that the containment fails in such a manner as to result in a large early release. By comparing CLERP due to Anticipated Transient Without Scram (ATWS) scenarios to the CLERP due to all initiating events, it can be determined whether ATWS scenarios pose a significant threat to the containment.

Calculations of CLERP are provided in the table below. It can be seen that the CLERP for ATWS-related core damage events is less than the CLERP for all core damage events. It can therefore be concluded that ATWS events do not pose a significant threat to the containment.

This finding supports the conclusion that the proposed Technical Specification changes do not adversely affect defense in depth.CDF LERF CLERP ATWS 1.34E-6 2.28E-8 0.0170 All Initiators 1.41E-5 1.16E-6 0.0823 Safety Evaluation Condition 4 for WCAP-15376 Table 5 lists the operator actions credited in the WCAP-15376 analysis.

SSPS logic cabinets are included in WCAP-14333.

Therefore, the analysis is applicable to WBN.12. Since the WBN test intervals are equal to or greater than those used in WCAP-14333, the analysis is applicable to WBN.13. Since the WBN analog channel calibration interval is equal to or greater than that used in WCAP-14333, the analysis is applicable to WBN. Note that analog channel calibrations are performed at-power when feasible, but, otherwise, are performed during refueling outages.14. Since WBN maintenance intervals are equal to or greater than those used in WCAP-14333, the analysis is applicable to WBN. Note that the analysis applies to maintenance at power (i.e., maintenance activities which cause an analog channel, logic train, or RTB to be unavailable).

WBN typically performs preventive maintenance on the analog channels, logic trains, and RTBs while shutdown.15. Only corrective maintenance is done on the master and slave relays. The maintenance interval on typical relays is relatively long, that is, experience has shown they do not typically fail completely.

Failure of these relays usually involves failure of individual contacts.

Since WBN experience is that slave relay failures are infrequent, the WCAP-14333 analysis is applicable to WBN.16. AMSAC will initiate AFW pump start at WBN. Therefore, the WCAP-14333 analysis is applicable to WBN.17.

Applicability of the Analysis General Parameters

18. Anticipated Transient Without Scram (ATWS) is not modeled as an initiating event in the WBN PSA. Because it is a significant event, the accident sequences that involve ATWS have been pulled out of the individual initiating event groups and presented as a group. This was performed by grouping all sequences that have either Top Event RT (Reactor Trip) or RODS (Control Rods Fail to Insert) in the failed state and an end state of either LERF or NOLERF (the two possible core damage end states).19. The current WBN PSA model is revision 3 (Reference 14). The IPE submittal was made in September 1992 and was based on the plant design, procedures, and training in place in 1991.Since the original IPE submittal, the Watts Bar PSA model has undergone four update cycles:* Revision 1 of the IPE Submittal (April 1994) addressed numerous design changes, procedure upgrades and enhanced operator training." Revision 2 of the PSA Model (November 1999) included plant design changes as a result of the Severe Accident Mitigation Design Alternatives (SAMDA) study." Revision 2A of the PSA Model (May 2000) integrated the Level 2 model with the Level 1 model to allow calculation of the LERF. This modeling feature was incorporated with the model developed for an EDG AOT extension.
  • Revision 3 (June 2005) is the model of record. The WOG PSA peer review team reviewed a draft revision 3. Major changes in this revision were to update plant-specific data and initiating events, incorporate the Westinghouse seal-LOCA model, revise the main and auxiliary feedwater models to include all four steam generators, and eliminate the loss of shutdown boards as initiating events.The WOG PSA peer review team rated the WBN PSA elements at a minimum of grade 2, with most elements at grade 3C or 3. Of significance to this proposed technical specification change, the systems analysis element, the dependency analysis element, and the containment performance element were all rated grade 3. There were no A or B level findings related to reactor trip or ESFAS signals.20. Some slave relays are tested quarterly, but most are tested on a refueling frequency.

CAW-07-2275 AFFIDAVIT COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA:

ss COUNTY OF ALLEGIHiENY:

Before me, the undersigned authority, personally appeared J. A. Gresham, who, being by me duly sworn according to law, deposes and says that he is authorized to execute this Affidavit on behal r of Westinghouse Electric Company LLC (Westinghouse), and that the averments of fact set forth in this Affidavit are true and correct to the best of his knowledge, information, and belief: J. A. Gresham, Manager Regulatory Compliance and Plant Licensing Sworn to and subscribed before me this 7th day of June, 2007 Notary Public COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA Notarial Sea)Sharon L. Markle, Notary Public Monroeville Boro, Allegheny County My Commission Expires Jan. 29,2011 Member. Peinsylvania Association of Notaries 2 CAW-07-2275 (1) 1 am Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Plant Licensing, in Nuclear Services, Westinghouse Electric Company LLC (Westinghouse), and as such, I have been specifically delegated the function of reviewing the proprietary information sought to be withheld from public disclosure in connection with nuclear power plant licensing and rule making proceedings, and am authorized to apply for its withholding on behalf of Westinghouse.

(2) 1 am making this Affidavit in conformance with the provisions of 10 CFR Section 2.390 of the Commission's regulations and in conjunction with the Westinghouse "Application for Withholding" accompanying this Affidavit.

(3) 1 have personal knowledge of the criteria and procedures utilized by Westinghouse in designating information as a trade secret, privileged or as confidential commercial or financial information.

(4) Pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b)(4) of Section 2.390 of the Commission's regulations, the following is furnished for consideration by the Commission in determining whether the information sought to be withheld from public disclosure should be withheld.(i) The information sought to be withheld from public disclosure is owned and has been held in confidence by Westinghouse.(ii) The information is of a type customarily held in confidence by Westinghouse and not customarily disclosed to the public. Westinghouse has a rational basis for determining the types of information customarily held in confidence by it and, in that connection, utilizes a system to determine when and whether to hold certain types of information in confidence.

The application of that system and the substance of that system constitutes Westinghouse policy and provides the rational basis required.Under that system, information is held in confidence if it falls in one or more of several types, the release of which might result in the loss of an existing or potential competitive advantage, as follows: (a) The information reveals the distinguishing aspects of a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.) where prevention of its use by any of Westinghouse's competitors without license from Westinghouse constitutcs a competitive economic advantage over other companies.

3 CAW-07-2275 (b) It consists of supporting data, including test data, relative to a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.), the application of which data secures a competitive economic advantage, e.g., by optimization or improved marketability.(c) Its use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.(d) It reveals cost or price information, production capacities, budget levels, or commercial strategies of Westinghouse, its customers or suppliers.(e) It reveals aspects of past, present, or future Westinghouse or customer funded development plans and programs of potential commercial value to Westinghouse.(f) It contains patentable ideas, for which patent protection may be desirable.

There are sound policy reasons behind the Westinghouse system which include the following: (a) The use of such information by Westinghouse gives Westinghouse a competitive advantage over its competitors.

It is, therefore, withheld from disclosure to protect the Westinghouse competitive position.(b) It is information that is marketable in many ways. The extent to which such information is available to competitors diminishes the Westinghouse ability to sell products and services involving the use of the information.(c) Use by our competitor would put Westinghouse at a competitive disadvantage by reducing his expenditure of resources at our expense.(d) Each component of proprietary information pertinent to a particular competitive advantage is potentially as valuable as the total competitive advantage.

If competitors acquire components of proprietary information, any one component may be the key to the entire puzzle, thereby depriving Westinghouse of a competitive advantage.

4 CAW-07-2275 (e) Unrestricted disclosure would jeopardize the position of prominence of Westinghouse in the world market, and thereby give a market advantage to the competition of those countries.(f) The Westinghouse capacity to invest corporate assets in research and development depends upon the success in obtaining and maintaining a competitive advantage.(iii) The information is being transmitted to the Commission in confidence and, under the provisions of 10 CFR Section 2.390, it is to be received in confidence by the Commission.(iv) The information sought to be protected is not available in public sources or available information has not been previously employed in the same original manner or method to the best of our knowledge and belief.(v) The proprietary information sought to be withheld in this submittal is that which is appropriately marked in WCAP-1 5376 Implementation Guideline for WCAP-15376-P-A, Rev. 1, "Approach to Address the Conditions and Limitations in the NRC's Safety Evaluation" (Proprietary) on behalf of the Pressurized Water Reactor Owners Group (PWROG), being transmitted by TVA Watts Bar Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 letter and Application for Withholding Proprietary Information from Public Disclosure, to the Document Control Desk. The proprietary information as submitted for use by the Pressurized Water Reactor Owners Group for TVA Watts Bar Nuclear Power Plant Unit I is expected to be applicable for other licensee submittals.

This information is part of that which will enable Westinghouse to: (a) Provide risk-informed assessment of the RTS and ESFAS to extend the interval for surveillance testing.(b) Provide licensing defense services.Further this information has substantial commercial value as follows:

5 CAW-07-2275 (a) Westinghouse plans to sell the use of similar information to its customers for purposes of extending surveillance testing intervals.(b) Westinghouse can sell support and defense of extending surveillance testing intervals.

Public disclosure of this proprietary information is likely to cause substantial harm to the competitive position of Westinghouse because it would enhance the ability of competitors to provide similar assessments and licensing defense services for commercial power reactors without commensurate expenses.

Also, public disclosure of the information would enable others to use the information to meet NRC requirements for licensing documentation without purchasing the right to use the information.

The development of the technology described in part by the information is the result of applying the results of many years of experience in an intensive Westinghouse effort and the expenditure of a considerable sum of money.In order for competitors of Westinghouse to duplicate this information, similar technical programs would have to be performed and a significant manpower effort, having the requisite talent and experience, would have to be expended.Further the deponent sayeth not.
