Cook Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2, 10 CFR 50.46 Loss-of-Coolant Accident Reanalysis Schedule," AEP:NRC:4046-01, dated December 28, 2004.Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.46, Indiana Michigan Power Company (I&M), the licensee for Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant (CNP), is transmitting an annual report of loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) model changes affecting the peak cladding temperature (PCT) for CNP Units 1 and 2 and a 30-day report of PCT calculation code changes affecting the calculated PCT for the CNP Unit 1 large break LOCA (LBLOCA) analysis.
Attachment 1 to this letter contains the 30-day report data, which describes the recent assessment against the Unit 1 LBLOCA analysis of record. Attachment 2 provides the Unit 1 and Unit 2 large break and small break LOCA analyses of record PCT values and error assessments.
By Reference 1, I&M submitted a schedule for reanalysis of the Unit I LBLOCA analysis of record.By Reference 2, I&M submitted a schedule for reanalysis of the Unit 1 and Unit 2 small break LOCA and the Unit 2 LBLOCA analyses of record. These schedules remain unchanged.

Tam -NRC Washington, DC ATTACHMENT 1 TO AEP:NRC:6046 ASSESSMENT AGAINST THE UNIT 1 LARGE BREAK LOSS-OF-COOLANT ACCIDENT ANALYSIS OF RECORD Indiana Michigan Power Company is submitting a 30-day report of peak clad temperature (PCT)calculation code changes affecting the calculated PCT for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant (CNP) Unit 1 large break loss of coolant accident (LBLOCA) analysis.
The calculations for 15 x 15 fuel, using the PAD version 4.0 code, show a 57 degree Fahrenheit
('F) increase in PCT.These calculations have been performed as part of a separate evaluation for future changes.Attachment 2, Table 1, demonstrates that the PCT value remains within the 2200'F PCT limit specified in 10 CFR 50.46(b)(1).
Assessment Against the Unit 1 LBLOCA Analysis of Record Rebaseline Using PAD 4.0 Background A 57°F penalty was identified when the rebaseline analysis, with the BASH evaluation model using PAD 4.0 data, was performed for the CNP Unit 1 LBLOCA analysis.Affected Evaluation Models 1981 Westinghouse LBLOCA Evaluation Model with BASH using the PAD version 4.0 code.Estimated Effect The calculated PCT with assessments for the Unit 1 LBLOCA is 2175°F and remains below the maximum limit value of 2200'F. The impact on PCT was estimated using a plant-specific LOCBART calculation.
As indicated in the PCT accounting in Attachment 2, the effect of the rebaseline using PAD 4.0 data is a 57'F penalty.Conclusion This transmittal satisfies the annual reporting requirement and 30-day reporting requirement of 10 CFR 50.46(a)(3)(ii).
Attachment 2 demonstrates that the PCT value remains within the 2200°F PCT limit specified in 10 CFR 50.46(b)(1).

This reanalysis (Item A.2) is not considered the analysis-of-record due to the spectrum of break sizes not being reanalyzed to ensure that the limiting break size at 3413 MWt with the errors incorporated would not change. Thus, the analysis-of-record remains as the 1995 analysis at a power level of 3588 MWt. The difference between the limiting case PCT (20511F) and the PCT from the reanalysis of that limiting break size at 3413 MWt is the 58'F being reported.
The 3413 MWt power level used in the reanalysis is acceptable because it bounds the Unit 2 3468 MWt steady state power limit in the operating license after adjusting for recapture of feedwater flow measurement and power calorimetric uncertainty.

However, 3304 MWt is assumed for the small break LOCA analysis with the safety injection (SI) system cross-tie valves closed. This is because Unit 2 Technical Specification 3.5.2 limits thermal power to 3304 MWt with an SI cross-tie valve closed. The 3250 MWt power level used in the reanalysis is acceptable because it bounds the Unit 2 3304 MWt steady state power limit in the operating license after adjusting for recapture of feedwater flow measurement and power calorimetric uncertainty.
