Figure 7 - was previously deleted Figure 8 - Conceptual FLEX Feed Header Layout was revised and reissued in Attachment II of this submittal. The significant changes to the figure are as follows: (1) eliminated FLEX SG Makeup Pump from CAR and placed near east feed connection, (2) revised FLEX header to indicate it is portable, and (3) identified possible water sources for SG makeup.

Figure 9 - Conceptual Coping Strategy to Repower 7.2kV bus was revised, renamed, and reissued in Attachment II of this submittal. The significant changes to the figure are as follows: (1) renamed figure to reflect repowering 7.2 kilovolt bus, (2) revised size, type, and number of generators in the CAR storage, and (3) eliminated repowering ASI Pump and Reactor Makeup (RXMU) FLEX Pump.

Figure 10- Conceptual Coping Strategy to Repower RBCU Fan(s), Batteries, ASI/RXMU FLEX Pump was deleted since the strategy or need for repowering these components has changed. Figure 9 provides the strategy to repower a 7.2 kilovolt 1 E bus.

Document Control Desk Attachment I RC-14-0030 CR-12-01078 Page 14 of 15 Figure 12 also provides an overview of the conceptual electrical distribution and repowering strategies.

Figure 11 - FLEX Strategy Conceptual Mechanical Diagram was added in Attachment II of this submittal to provide a conceptual diagram of the interactions between strategies, water sources, and equipment.

Figure 12 - FLEX Strategy Conceptual Electrical Diagram was added in Attachment II of this submittal to provide a conceptual diagram of the interactions between strategies, generators, and equipment.

Figure 13 - FLEX Off-Site Response Map was added in Attachment II of this submittal to provide a regional view of the area with major roads, local airports, and the off-site staging area.

Figure 14 - FLEX Storage and Deployment Site Plan was added in Attachment II of this submittal to provide an aerial view of the site layout identifying the onsite RRC staging area B and the onsite robust haul path.

5 Need for Relief/Relaxation and Basis for the Relief/Relaxation SCE&G expects to comply with the order implementation date, and no relief/relaxation is required at this time.

6 Open Items from Overall Integrated Plan and Draft Safety Evaluation The following generic concerns have been addressed by NEI, accepted by the NRC, and incorporated into the appropriate section of the Overall Integrated Plan:

" Position Paper: Shutdown/Refueling Modes - endorsed by NRC in September 30, 2013 letter to NEI was incorporated into Section 5: Strategy Deployment.

  • EPRI Report 3002000623 entitled "Nuclear maintenance Applications Center: Preventive Maintenance Basis for FLEX Equipment" - endorsed by NRC in October 7, 2013 letter to NEI was incorporated into Section 7: Programmatic Controls.
  • Westinghouse position paper entitled "Westinghouse Response to NRC Generic Request for Additional Information (RAI) on Boron Mixing in Support of the Pressurized Water Reactor Owners Group (PWROG), - endorsed by NRC in January 8, 2014 letter to NEI was incorporated into Section 11: Maintain RCS Inventory Control.
  • Battery Life Issue White Paper- endorsed by NRC in September 16, 2013 letter to NEI was incorporated into Section 14: Safety Function Support.

7 Potential Draft Safety Evaluation Impacts There are no potential impacts to the Draft Safety Evaluation identified at this time.
