Application to Adopt 10 CFR 50.69, "Risk-Informed Categorization and Treatment of Structures, Systems, and Components for Nuclear Power Reactors" Supplement to the Application to Adopt 10 CFR 50.69, "Risk-Informed Categorization and Treatment of Structures, Systems, and Components for Nuclear Power Reactors"Response to NRC Request for Additional Information (RAI) Regarding Application to Adopt 10 CFR 50.69, "Risk-Informed Categorization and Treatment of Structures, Systems, and Components for Nuclear Power Reactors"Request for Additional Information Regarding License Amendment Request to Adopt 10 CFR 50.69 Risk-Informed Categorization of Structures, Systems, and Components

The process to categorize each system will be consistent with the guidance in NEI 00-04, "10 CFR 50.69 SSC Categorization Guideline," as endorsed by RG 1.201. RG 1.201 states that "the implementation of all processes described in NEI 00-04 (i.e., Sections 2 through 12) is integral to providing reasonable confidence" and that "all aspects of NEI 00-04 must be followed to achieve reasonable confidence in the evaluations required by §50.69(c)(1)(iv)."

In accordance with NEI 00-04, sensitivity studies will be used to determine whether other conditions might lead to the component being safety significant. The assessment of the uncertainties, therefore, is appropriately addressed by the sensitivity studies required by this risk-informed application.

HBRSEP, Unit No. 2 1 Amendment No. 246 APPENDIX B ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-23

Duke Energy Progress, LLC. (the term licensee in Appendix B refers to Duke Energy Progress, LLC.) shall comply with the following conditions on the schedules noted below:

Amendment Number Additional Conditions Implementation Date 176 The licensee is authorized to relocate certain requirements included in

Appendix A and the former Appendix B to licensee-controlled documents.

Implementation of this amendment

shall include the relocation of these

requirements to the appropriate

documents, as described in the licensee's letters dated September 10, 1997, and October 13, 1997, evaluated in the NRC staff's Safety

Evaluation enclosed with this

amendment.

This amendment is

effective immediately

and shall be implemented within

90 days of the date of

this amendment.

219 Upon implementation of the amendment adopting TSTF-448, Revision 3, the determination of control room envelope (CRE) unfiltered air inleakage as required by TS 5.5.17.c.(i), the assessment of CRE habitability as required by TS 5.5.17.c.(ii),

and the measurement of CRE pressure as

required by TS 5.5.17.d, shall be considered met. Following implementation:

(a) The first performance of TS 5.5.17.c.(i), shall be within the specified Frequency of 6 years, plus the 18-month allowance of SR 3.0.2, as measured from January 27,2003, the This amendment is

effective immediately and shall be implemented as specified APPENDIX B ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS HBRSEP, Unit No. 2 2 Amendment No. 219 date of the most recent successful tracer gas test, or within the next 18 months if the time period since the most recent successful tracer gas test is greater than

6 years.

(b) The first performance of the periodic assessment of CRE habitability, TS 5.5.17.c.(ii), shall be within the next 9 months.

(c) The first performance of the periodic measurement of CRE pressure, TS 5.5.17.d, shall be within 18 months, plus the 138 days allowed by SR 3.0.2, as

measured from the date of the most recent successful pressure measurement test.
