See Section H, Clause 2052.21571 PROJECT OFFICER AUTHORITY 1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project is titled, "Technical Assistance in Support of Cooper's License Amendment Request to Move Linear Heat Generation Rate (LHGR) Limit from Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) to Technical Specifications (TS) (ML14203A045)." The objective of this task order is to obtain technical expertise to assist the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff in determining the technical adequacy of the license amendment request (LAR) submitted by Nebraska Public Power District) to revise Cooper's Move Linear Heat Generation Rate (LHGR)Limit from TRM to TS. This project falls under Section C.3.2, "Licensing Support," of the base contract.
2.0 BACKGROUND
Criterion 2 requires the inclusion in TS any process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a design basis accident or transient analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier. Prior to CNS cycle 23 the Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHGR) thermal limit in TS 3.2.1 was a composite limit of the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) limits and the thermal mechanical LHGR limits used to protect the primary fission product barrier (cladding).
This allowed the APLHGR TS to meet the requirements for monitoring the ECCS LOCA limits as well as the thermal mechanical limits of the cladding.2 Since the implementation of PANAC1 1 in cycle 23, the application of the APLHGR limits are based solely on the ECCS criteria.
Thermal mechanical limits are monitored independently with LHGR. Since the limits are now separate, both limits must reside in the TS and have a unique Condition for Operation (LCO) for each. LHGR is presently monitored and controlled per the TRM. This change is needed to allow the TS to comply with the Code of Federal Regulations which will be satisfied by the addition of TS 3.2.3, LHGR.This amendment is required to revise the CNS Operating License to add the definition for LHGR, add the LCO, Actions and Surveillance Requirements for LHGR, revise the Recirculation Loops Operating LCO, revise the Main Turbine Bypass System LCO and revise the requirements for the Core Operating Limits Report (COLR).3.0 OBJECTIVE The contractor must provide all resources necessary to accomplish the tasks and deliverables described in this statement of work (SOW).The contractor must perform a review and evaluation of the technical and regulatory basis for the LAR. The contractor must provide technical evaluation report (TER) that will be used as input for the NRC staff's safety evaluation report (SER) that documents the NRC's technical, legal, and safety basis for approving the license amendment.
4.0 SPECIFIC
TASKS The contractor must perform the following tasks: Task I Kickoff Meeting I. a *Preparation for-Kickoff Meeting Become familiar with the LAR submittal by CNS.1. b Attend Kickoff Meeting Attend a one-time kick-off meeting (either in person or via conference call) to discuss the scope of work, expectations, task order management, and performance requirements of the task order.The kick-off meeting shall be held within ten (10) working days after contractor receipt of LAR materials.
Task 2 Review LAR Submission

The TER must be organized to parallel the applicable sections in NRC's SRP, Chapters 9. The TER may include other relevant information that is not included in the SRP.Only input to SER sections requiring revision must be included in the TER. The TER must contain draft text, tables, and illustrations, as appropriate, suitable for inclusion in NRC's SER.The TER must provide sufficient information to adequately support the NRC staffs rationale for why there is reasonable assurance that public health and safety is protected.
It must be written so that a person with either non-nuclear technical background or non-technical background can understand the basis for conclusions cited.Prepare final draft TER that incorporates comments provided by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).As directed by the COR, participate in conference calls with CNS to discuss the LAR materials.
- 2. c Prepare Requests for Additional Information Identify unresolved issues and any additional or clarifying information needed in the LAR submission.
