1.0 INTRODUCTION
By application dated February 20, 2013 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML 13053A 199), as supplemented by letters dated June 25, 2013, September 15, 2014, and February 26, 2015 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML 13178A024, ML 14258A089, and ML 15057 A480, respectively), Northern States Power Company -Minnesota (NSPM, the licensee), doing business as Xcel Energy, Inc., requested changes to the technical specifications (TSs) for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP), Units 1 and 2. The licensee proposed a revision to TS 3.5.3, "ECCS [Emergency Core Cooling] -SHUTDOWN," to remove Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO), Note 1, which was identified by the licensee as being incorrect and may not adequately maintain system operability.
The licensee had been administratively controlling plant operations in TS 3.5.3 under the provision of U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Administrative Letter (AL) 98-10, "Dispositioning of Technical Specifications That Are Insufficient to Assure Plant Safety," and submitted its license amendment request in accordance with the guidance provided in AL 98-10. In its letter dated February 26, 2015, the licensee proposed to change the TS 3.5.3 Applicability to "MODE 4," removing the currently defined Applicability which states "MODE 4 when both RCS [reactor coolant system] cold leg temperatures are > [greater than] SI [safety injection]
pump disable temperature specified in PTLR [Pressure Temperature Limits Report]." The supplements dated June 25, 2013, and September 15, 2014, provided additional information that clarified the application, did not expand the scope of the application as originally noticed, and did not change the NRC staff's original proposed no significant Enclosure 3 hazards consideration determination as published in the Federal Register on August 20, 2013 (78 FR 51229). A revised no significant hazards consideration determination was published in the Federal Register on March 17, 2015 (80 FR 13910), to consider the additional aspects of the proposed Applicability change provided in the February 26, 2015, supplemental letter.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
The Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP), Units 1 and 2, was licensed to operating prior to issuance of the regulations in Appendix A, "General Design Criteria [GDC] for Nuclear Power Plants,
to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50. PINGP was licensed on the basis of similar plant-specific principal design criteria 1. PINGP was licensed on the basis of similar plant-specific principal design criteria.
Section 1.5, "General Design Criteria,
of the PINGP Updated Safety Analysis Report indicates that PINGP was designed and constructed to comply with the licensee's understanding of the intent of Atomic Energy Commission's GDCs for nuclear power plant construction permits as proposed on July 10, 1967. The Appendix A requirements similar to the Pl NGP principal design criteria include the following:
- GDC 34 requires a residual heat removal (RHR) system designed to maintain specified acceptable fuel design limits and ensure the design conditions of the reactor coolant boundary are not exceeded if a single failure occurs simultaneous with failure of specified electrical power systems.
- GDCs 35, 36, and 37 require an ECCS design that meets certain performance, inspection, and testing requirements.
The regulation in 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2) defines an LCO as the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment required for safe operation of the facility.
When a LCO of a nuclear reactor is not met, the licensee must shut down the reactor or follow any remedial action permitted by the TSs until the condition can be met. The regulation in 10 CFR 50.46 provides the ECCS acceptance criteria for light-water nuclear power reactors.
The regulations specify requirements of ECCS to ensure that the calculated cooling performance criteria of 10 CFR 50.46, paragraph (b), are met following postulated LOCAs. 3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION The primary function of the ECCS is to remove heat from the reactor core during accident conditions.
During the initial part of an event requiring ECCS actuation at PINGP, a flow path is required to provide refueling water storage tank (RWST) water to the RCS. For long-term cooling, RCS make-up water may be supplied from the containment sump. Following a loss-of-1 These apply to facilities with construction permits issued before May 21, 1972, and that were not licensed under 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A. Prairie Island Unit 1 was licensed to operate on*August 9, 1973, and Unit 2 was licensed to operate on October 29, 1974. The operating licenses for both units were renewed on June 27, 2011. coolant accident (LOCA), the RHR system performs two functions as the low-head portion of the ECCS:
- When RCS pressure is low enough, it provides borated water from the RWST into the RCS, and
- It provides a long-term recirculation capability from the containment sump for core cooling. During Modes 1, 2, and 3, both ECCS trains are required to be operable and the RHR system is capable of being aligned to perform the ECCS low-head injection function.
During Mode 4, the TS 3.5.3 LCO requires that one ECCS train be operable.
The RHR pumps may also be used for core decay heat removal during normal reactor heat removal when in Modes 4, 5, and 6. TS 3.5.3 requires an ECCS train to be operable during Mode 4, where the RCS average coolant temperature, Tave. is described by a range of 200 degrees Fahrenheit
(°F) < Tave< 350°F. The RHR system is part of the ECCS. If an RHR train has been operating to remove heat from the RCS, a portion of the RHR system will be subject to RCS hot leg temperature, T hot* Transferring an RHR train to an ECCS configuration when T hot is greater than or equal to the local saturation temperature in the RHR piping, Tsat. may cause a loss of ECCS capability due to flashing in the RHR piping. The current PINGP TS 3.5.3 reads as follows: 3.5.3 ECCS -Shutdown LCO 3.5.3 One ECCS train shall be OPERABLE.
NOTES ----------------------------------
- 1. An RHR train may be considered OPERABLE during alignment and operation for decay heat removal, if capable of being manually realigned to the ECCS mode of operation.
- 2. An SI train may be considered OPERABLE when the pump is capable of being manually started from the control room. APPLICABILITY:
MODE 4 when both RCS cold leg temperatures are> SI pump disable temperature specified in PTLR. Note 1 allows both RHR trains to be in operation in the shutdown cooling mode during Mode 4 when both RCS cold leg temperatures are greater than the SI pump disable temperature specified in PTLR. As stated in the February 20, 2013, submittal, the SI pump disable temperature currently corresponds to a value of 218°F. The licensee proposed to remove Note 1 to avoid any potential loss of ECCS capability due to flashing in the RHR piping. The licensee also proposed an enhancement to TS 3.5.3 by expanding the mode applicability to cover all of Mode 4, in lieu of the existing TS 3.5.3 mode applicability which specifies a lower range defined when RCS cold leg temperature is above the SI disable temperature specified in the PTLR (i.e., 218°F). Based on the above, the licensee proposed to revise TS 3.5.3 to read as follows: 3.5.3 ECCS -Shutdown LCO 3.5.3 One ECCS train shall be OPERABLE.
l\IOTE -------------------------------
An SI train may be considered OPERABLE when the pump is capable of being manually started from the control room. APPLICABILITY:
MODE 4 The l\IRC staff finds that removing l\lote 1 from TS 3.5.3 is acceptable, as it lessens the potential for steam flashing and loss of pump suction and reduces the potential for a condition that could result in a loss of operability.
The l\IRC staff finds that removing the qualifier, "when both RCS cold leg temperatures are greater than SI pump disable temperature specified in PTLR," provides a significant improvement to the TSs, as it provides additional assurance of continued ECCS availability that is particularly important when there exists the possibility of flashing during a loss-of-coolant or loss of RCS pressure, and is acceptable.
The aforementioned changes address actual conditions in the hot leg that are of concern with respect to maintaining RHR system operability and furthering the capability to meet the ECCS acceptance criteria as specified in 10 CFR 50.46. Summary Based on the above, the l\IRC staff concludes that the revisions to TS 3.5.3 improve the capability for the RHR system trains to remain available through Mode 4 without the potential for steam flashing and loss of safety function.
Therefore, the staff finds that the revised TS is consistent with the requirements of GDCs-34, 35, 36, and 37, as well as 1 O CFR 50.46. 4.0 STATE COl\ISUL TATIOl\I In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the Minnesota State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment on April 15, 2015. The State official had no comments. 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION The amendments change requirements with respect to the use of facility components located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20 or changes surveillance requirements.
The NRC staff has determined that the amendments involve 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 finding that the amendments involve no significant hazards consideration and there has been no public comment on such finding as published in the Federal Register on August 20, 2013 (78 FR 51229), and March 17, 2015 (80 FR 13910). Accordingly, the amendments meet 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 these amendments.
6.0 CONCLUSION
The NRC staff 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 amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
