SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION This evaluation supports a request to amend Operating Licenses DPR-53 and DPR-69 for Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2; DPR-63 and NPF-69 for Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2; DPR-18 for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant; and Material License SNM-2505 for the Calvert Cliffs Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI).The proposed changes would revise the operating and nuclear materials licenses to permit the use of Section 161A preemption authority under 42 U.S.C. 2201a, allowing the continued use at the nuclear facilities of the weapons discussed in Attachment (1) of the application and license amendment request letter.2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION The Commission designated the facilities within the class of facilities eligible to apply for Section 161A preemption authority in EA- 13-092, Order Designating an Interim Class of NRC-Licensed Facilities that are Eligible to Apply to the Commission for Authorization to Use the Authority Granted Under the Provisions of Section 161A of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as Amended, dated June 5, 2013.EA-13-092 also specified that licensees must submit any application for Section 161A preemption authority as a license amendment request.This license amendment request (LAR) proposes to add a sentence to the existing physical protection license condition in the operating licenses to reflect that the NRC has granted Section 161A preemption authority pursuant to the authority described in Section 161A of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended.As set forth in Enclosures 2a-2f, and as required by EA-13-092, this LAR includes a proposed change to the existing license condition for physical protection for the facilities.
The following wording is proposed to be inserted into the physical protection license condition in the facilities licenses: "The licensee has obtained Commission authorization to use Section 161A preemption authority under 42 U.S.C. 2201a for weapons at its facility." 3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION The requested Section 161 A preemption authority is necessary for the armed security personnel at CENG nuclear facilities to perform their specific duties. Licensees are required under 10 CFR 73.55(b)(1) to establish and maintain a physical protection program, which includes a security organization and armed security personnel.
To satisfy the general performance objective required in the regulations, a nuclear power plant's physical protection program must protect against the design basis threat (DBT) of radiological sabotage (10 CFR 73.1 and 10 CFR 73.55(b)(2))
and provide defense-in-depth (10 CFR 73.55(b)(3)(ii)).
Specific physical protection program requirements for ISFSIs are also contained in 10 CFR Part 73, including in 10 CFR 73.5 1.The physical protection programs for the nuclear facilities are contained in each facility's NRC-approved security plans, which for the reactors include the Physical Security Plan, Training and Qualification Plan, Safeguards Contingency Plan, and Cyber Security Plan, and for the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP) ISFSI include the Physical Protection Plan. Obtaining Section 161A preemption authority I of4 ATTACHMENT (2)EVALUATION OF PROPOSED CHANGE maintains the effectiveness of the security plans for the facilities, including the ability of their security forces to defend against the DBT and provide defense-in-depth.
4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
4.1 APPLICABLE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS/CRITERIA This LAR is submitted pursuant to the order requirements provided in EA-13-092, the physical security requirements contained in 10 CFR Part 73, and the license amendment requirements in 10 CFR 50.90 and 72.56.4.2 SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION Constellation Energy Nuclear Group, LLC (CENG), on behalf of the CENG Licensees, is submitting this license amendment request for Commission review and approval to recognize Commission authorization to use Section 161A preemption authority under 42 U.S.C. 2201a for weapons at CENG facilities.
The following wording is proposed to be inserted into the physical protection license condition in the facilities licenses: "The licensee has obtained Commission authorization to use Section 161A preemption authority under 42 U.S.C. 2201 a for weapons at its facility." The proposed changes to the nuclear power plant licenses have been evaluated to determine whether a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendments by assessing the change using the three criteria of 10 CFR 50.92 as discussed below: Criterion 1: Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?
Response:
No The proposed change does not require any plant modifications, alter the plant configuration, require new plant equipment to be installed, alter accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators, or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, modified, tested, or inspected.
The proposed change to the licenses will not result in any actual changes at the facilities.
The security personnel already use the subject weapons and the use of the weapons is already covered under their existing security plans.The proposed change adds a sentence to the operating licenses to reflect the Section 161 A preemption authority granted by the Commission.
The change is administrative and has no impact on the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
Therefore, it is concluded that this change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
2 of 4 ATTACHMENT (2)EVALUATION OF PROPOSED CHANGE Criterion 2: Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?
Response:
No The proposed change does not require any plant modifications, alter the plant configuration, require new plant equipment to be installed, alter accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators, or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, modified, tested, or inspected.
The proposed change to the licenses will not result in any actual changes at the facilities.
The security personnel already use the subject weapons and the use of the weapons is already covered under their existing security plans.The proposed change adds a sentence to the operating licenses to reflect the Section 161 A preemption authority granted by the Commission.
The change is administrative and has no impact on the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
Therefore, it is concluded that this change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
Criterion 3: Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.The proposed change does not require any plant modifications, alter the plant configuration, require new plant equipment to be installed, alter accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators, or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, modified, tested, or inspected.
Therefore, the implementation of the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.The proposed change to the licenses will not result in any actual changes at the facilities.
The security personnel already use the subject weapons and the use of the weapons is already covered under their existing security plans.The proposed change to the license condition in the operating licenses adds a sentence to the existing license condition for physical protection to reflect the Section 161 A preemption authority granted by the Commission.
The change is administrative and does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. Therefore, the proposed change to the license conditions and the Commission granting the requested Section 161 A preemption authority does not create a significant reduction in a margin of safety.Based on the above, the proposed change presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and accordingly, a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified.
4.3 CONCLUSION
S In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above: (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner; (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations; and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.3 of 4 ATTACHMENT (2)EVALUATION OF PROPOSED CHANGE 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION The proposed amendment incorporates the Commission's Section 161A preemption authorization into the licensing basis for the CENG facilities.
