ENTERGY NUCLEAR VERMONT YANKEE, ) Docket No. 50-271-OLA LLC and ENTERGY NUCLEAR )
OPERATIONS, INC. ) ASLBP No. 04-832-02-OLA

(Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Station) )
NRC STAFFS ANSWER TO NEW ENGLAND COALITIONS STATEMENT ON THE SCOPE OF NEC CONTENTION 3 In accordance with the Licensing Boards Order (Supplemental Schedule) dated March 14, 2006, the NRC Staff (Staff) hereby responds to New England Coalitions Statement on the Scope of New England Coalition Contention 3 (Statement), filed by New England Coalition (NEC) on March 21, 2006.
In its Order, the Licensing Board, inter alia, directed NEC to submit a statement or brief concerning NEC Contention 3 (Large Transient Testing), that specifies all of the large transient tests that it believes are necessary. Order at 2, ¶ B.1. Further, if NEC asserts that large transient tests in addition to the main steam isolation valve closure test and the generator load rejection test are required, [NEC is to state] why those two tests do not bound NECs safety concerns. Id.
In response to the Licensing Boards Order, NEC states its view that station blackout testing should also be required (NECs Statement, at 2) - but it concurs with the views expressed by Counsel for Entergy Nuclear Vermont Yankee, L.L.C. and Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENVY) and Counsel for the Staff,1 that only two large transient tests are the 1
See, e.g., letter from Jay E. Silberg, Esq. to the Licensing Board, dated February 3, 2006; Tr. 711-12, 813-14 (Silberg); Tr. 815-16 (Turk); Tr. 819 (inquiry by Judge Baratta).
subject of this contention: (a) main steam isolation valve closure, and (b) turbine generator load rejection. NEC states as follows:
Upon examination of the history and relevant documentation of Contention 3, and after discussion with NRC Staff and ENVY Counsel, New England Coalition is convinced that any additional type of Large Transient Testing beyond the main steam isolation valve closure test and the generator load rejection test is not within the scope of Contention 3 as admitted.
NEC Statement, at 2; emphasis added.2 The Staff shares NECs view that only the main steam isolation valve closure test and the generator load rejection test are embraced within the scope of this contention, as filed by NEC and admitted by the Licensing Board. Accordingly, in its testimony on NEC Contention 3, the Staff will address the need only for these two tests to be performed.
Respectfully submitted,
/RA/
Sherwin E. Turk Counsel for NRC Staff Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 27th day of March, 2006 2
This statement is consistent with NECs previous statements in the telephone conference call of January 24, 2006. See Tr. 717-19 (Shadis). NECs statement, that it currently believes station blackout testing should also be required (NECs Statement, at 2), is irrelevant, inasmuch as that concern was not raised in NECs Contention 3 - as NEC, itself, concedes.
