(Yes I No) 51 B.1.18 LRA Appendix B.1.18 will be revised as follows: NO The first test of neutron monitoring system cables that are disconnected during instrument calibrations shall be completed before the period of extended operation and subsequent tests will occur at least every 10 years. In accordance with the Corrective Action Program, an engineering evaluation will be performed when test acceptance criteria are not met and corrective actions, including modified inspection frequency will be implemented to ensure that the intended functions of the cables can be maintained consistent with the current licensing basis for the period of extended operation.
53 B.1.19 The LRA Appendix B.1.19 program description will be NO changed to read as follows:
This program addresses cables and connections at plants whose configuration is such that most cables and connections installed in adverse localized environments are accessible.
This program can be thought of as a sampling program.
Selected cables and connections from accessible areas will be*
inspected and represent, with reasonable assurance, all cables and connections in the adverse localized environments. Ifan unacceptable condition or situation Is identified for a cable or connection in the inspection sample, a determination will be made as to whether the same condition or situation is applicable to other accessible cables or connections. The sample size will be increased based on an evaluation per EN-L-1i 02 - Corrective Action Process.

(Yes I No) 64 B.1.23 As noted in GALL,Section XI.M3, [Element Number ten (10) - NO "Operating Experience']; GALL-recommended programs 1.
should have provisions regarding Inspection techniques and evaluation. VYNPS states, in its explanation of the existing program, that '...recent (2002 and 2) visual and ultrasonic inspections...revealed no recordable indications...". The NRC has asked VYNPS to compare examinations performed In 2002 and 2 with the "exception-stated" examination technique proposed for future examinations and to provide to the staff the results of this comparison.
The 2002 examinations included visual and ultrasonic inspections. The 2 examinations were visual only as per the stated exception. Future examination will be visual only in accordance with ASME Code Case N-652. Code Case N-652 has been endorsed by the NRC per Table 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.147. Revision 14. As this Code Case is now endorsed, this inspection Is no longer an exception to GALL.
The LRA Supplement Letter will revoke this GALL exception.
3.6.2.2.3 & LRA Table 3.6.1 and section 3.6.2.2.3 will be revised as NO Table 3.6.1 shown below:

120 B.1.17 Currently AMP B.1.17 defines medium-voltage cable voltage level from 2kV to 15kV. NO LRA Appendix B.1.17 will be revised to define medium-voltage cable as voltage level from 2kV to 35kV.
124 B.1.19 The VYNPS B.1.19 will be revised to state that the program NO applies to accessible electrical cables and connections within the scope of license renewal that are installed in adverse localized environments caused by heat or radiation in the presence of oxygen.
143 B.1.18 a) B.1.18 will be revised under parameter NO monitored/inspected to state that the parameters monitored are determined from the specific calibration, surveillances or testing performed and are based on the specific instrumentation circuit under surveillance or being calibrated, as documented In plant procedures.
LRPD-02, Rev 2 Incorporated this change.
(b) B.1.18 under parameter monitored/inspected will state that the parameters monitored are determined from the specific calibration, surveillances or testing performed. The parameter for cable testing is determined from the plant procedures.
Cable testing Is performed by plant procedures on cables In-scope of XI.E2 that are disconnected during Instrument calibration.

The components are less than 4" NPS and are outside the Class I reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure boundary. They are, therefore, outside the scope of the BWR SCC program. Aging of the PASS sample line tubing and valves is managed by the Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program, which is verified by the One-Time Inspection Program. To provide further clarification, the effectiveness of the Water Chemistry Control - Auxiliary Systems, BWR, and Closed Cooling Water programs is confirmed by the One-Time Inspection program. This requires an amendment to the license renewal application to change the Appendix A, SAR supplement descriptions for the Water Chemistry Control -Auxiliary Systems, BWR and Closed Cooling Water programs to explicitly state One-Time Inspection Program activities will confirm the effectiveness of these programs. However, Inspections performed under the small-bore piping activity, which applies to components within the Class-I RCS pressure boundary, will also provide data useful for evaluating the condition of these downstream components.

It is projected that less than 60% of the design cycles for these five transients will be used through the first 60 years of operation, including the PEO. The remaining transients are monitored by plant engineering based on review of operating data at the end of each fuel cycle. These remaining transients are summarized in the Fatigue Monitoring Program as the sixth transient (Reactor Startups and Shutdowns). .Engineering evaluates these transients and advises operations ifthe number of design cycles is being approached Page 26 of 26 06/21/2006
