dated December 20, 2012 Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.46(a)(3)(ii), the Northern States Power Company, a Minnesota corporation (NSPM), doing business as Xcel Energy, is providing this 30-day report concerning a change in the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) evaluation model for the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant (MNGP). The MNGP Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) analyses of record (AORs) are contained in General Electric (GE) reports submitted for the MNGP rerate to the current licensed thermal power (1775 MWt) (Reference 1) and the LOCA analysis for the GE14 fuel type comprising the MNGP core (Reference 2), adjusted for the estimated effect of errors or changes subsequently discovered in the evaluation models or their application.
This 30-day report is being made due to revision one to General Electric Hitachi (GEH)
Nuclear Energy 10 CFR 50.46 Notification Letter 2012-01 (Reference 3), to reflect a reduction in the change in Peak Cladding Temperature (PCT) from 45 0 F to 100 F, due to applying the PRIME fuel properties for fuel rod thermal / mechanical (T / M) performance, which replaced the GESTR fuel properties model. This results in an
Document Control Desk L-MT-13-090 Page 2 of 2 adjusted PCT of 2050'F that is less than that previously reported in Reference 4.
However, this modeling change still results in a cumulative increase in PCT exceeding the 50'F threshold and is being reported in accordance with the regulation.
As prescribed by the regulation a proposed reanalysis schedule or an evaluation is needed to demonstrate the facility remains in compliance with 10 CFR 50.46 requirements. In accordance with 10 CFR 50.46(a)(3)(ii) the following evaluation is provided. The adjusted PCT is 150°F below the 2200°F acceptance criterion of 10 CFR 50.46(b)(1). This provides sufficient margin to justify taking no further action.
No further reanalysis or other actions are planned. provides additional information on the nature of the change, and the previous changes and errors, and their effect on the MNGP LOCA analysis. This information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.46(a)(3)(ii) for the MNGP.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Mr. Richard Loeffler at (763) 295-1247.

Impact of Top Peaked Power Shape for Small Break LOCA Analysis (Notification Letter 2006-01)
Small Break LOCA analyses had assumed a mid-peaked axial +30 power shape consistent with the Design Basis Accident (DBA) break analyses. It was determined that a top-peaked axial power shape can result in higher calculated PCT.
Impact of database error for heat deposition on the PCT for 1Ox1 0 fuel bundles (Notification Letter 2011-02)
The input coefficients used to direct the deposition of gamma radiation energy produced by the fuel caused the heat deposited 5+ 60 in the fuel channel (post scram) to be over-predicted and the corresponding heat in the fuel to be under-predicted.

Applicable Analysis or Error Description PCT(°F)
GE14 Impact of updated formulation for gamma heat deposition to channel wall for 9x9 and 10x10 fuel bundles (Notification Letter 2011-03)
In the input formulation for SAFER, the method for the contribution of heat from gamma ray absorption by the channel had been simplified so that initially all energy was deposited in the fuel rods prior to the LOCA and then adjusted to the correct heat deposition after the scram. Not accounting for this small fraction of power generation outside the fuel rod tends to suppress the hot bundle power required to meet the initial operating Peak Linear Heat Generation Rate. Also, there is a small effect on the initial conditions for the rest of the core as these are set in relation to the hot bundle condition.
PRIME Fuel Properties Implementation for Fuel Rod T/M Performance, replacing GESTR Fuel Properties (Notification Letter 2012-01, Revision 1)
This change is due to the application of an NRC-approved 7 + 10 procedure to estimate the change in PCT due to the change in fuel properties from GESTR to PRIME primarily to address inaccuracies in fuel pellet thermal conductivity as a function of exposure.
