S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission July 1, 2013 Attachment Page 1 Aging Management Reviews For Newly Identified Oconee Nuclear Station Systems, Structures and Components as of December 31, 2012 U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission July 1, 2013 Attachment Page 2 Introduction This summary report is in lieu of adding a level of detail to the Oconee Nuclear Station (ONS)Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) that is greater than the remainder of the UFSAR, including the License Renewal Supplement.
An entry on the NRC website, "Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About License Renewal Inspection Procedure (IP) 71003, 'Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal,"'
relates to the amount of detail required per 10CFR 54.37(b).
It states, "The NRC staff will consider it acceptable if the summary information included in the FSAR update is consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR 54.21(d), and the guidance provided by Revision 1 of NUREG-1 800, 'Standard Review Plan for License Renewal Applications for Nuclear Power Plants' (SRP-LR), provided that the licensee has supplied the technical details (as described in RIS 2007-16) in another documented submittal to the NRC." The information in this report is consistent with the technical information previously submitted to the NRC with the License Renewal Application (LRA) and subsequent requests for additional information (RAIs).In July 1998, ONS submitted a LRA to the NRC to renew the operating licenses for ONS Units 1, 2, and 3 for an additional 20 years beyond the original license expiration dates of February 6, 2013, October 6, 2013, and July 19, 2014, respectively.
Within the LRA, system descriptions were provided to define the component types, intended functions, and the Aging Management Programs (AMPs) that applied. Lists of individual components within the scope of license renewal were not required to be provided.
The renewed operating licenses were issued in May 2000 to extend the operating licenses for ONS Units 1, 2, and 3 for an additional 20 years.For holders of a renewed operating license, 10 CFR 54.37(b) requires that newly-identified systems, structures, or components (SSCs) be included in the UFSAR update required by 10 CFR 50.71(e) describing how the effects of aging will be managed. Newly-identified SSCs are those SSCs that were installed in the plant at the time of the LRA submittal but were not evaluated as part of the LRA.A review of engineering changes, newly generated License Renewal Boundary Drawings, and items identified using the Problem Investigation Program (PIP) were reviewed from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012. From this review, three Aging Management Reviews (AMRs) were performed for "newly identified" items. All newly identified components have been assigned to existing AMPs and appropriate actions to detect and manage aging effects throughout the period of extended operation (PEO) have been taken.The components for which AMR results are already addressed within the LRA or are addressed by responses to NRC RAIs are not discussed here, since the results of the AMR have been previously submitted and found acceptable.
Summaries of the completed AMRs included in this report are: 1 -Standby Shutdown Facility -Auxiliary Service Water (SSF-ASW)
System Changes 2 -Fan and Damper Housings 3 -Keowee Turbine Guide Bearing Oil Coolers U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission July 1, 2013 Attachment Page 3 1.0 Standby Shutdown Facility -Auxiliary Service Water (SSF-ASW)
System Changes During the LRA, the SSF-ASW piping was classified as having external environments of sheltered and yard pipe. Yard pipe was considered piping above ground piping. In addition, it was initially thought that the SSF-ASW had an internal environment of just service water.ONS had a leak in a section of underground SSF-ASW piping. During the Failure Investigation Process (FIP), it was identified that the LRA did not appropriately represent the SSF-ASW piping. A portion of the SSF-ASW piping is buried piping (external environment -Underground).
It was also identified that certain sections of SSF-ASW piping are filled with demineralized (treated) water. An EC was performed to replace a portion of the underground portion of piping.The existing material was carbon steel, and the new material used was stainless steel.Impact on ONS UFSAR Chapter 18 No changes are required in Chapter 18 of the UFSAR for the Condenser Circulating Water Internal Coating Inspection Program or the Service Water Piping Corrosion Program.Tables 1.1 and 1.2 contain the AMR review summary for internal and external environments.

S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission July 1, 2013 Attachment Page 5 2.0 Fan and Damper Housings In accordance with RIS 2007-16, the NRC expects applicants to identify active mechanical component housings that require an AMR pursuant to 10 CFR 54.21. This determination considers whether failure of the housing would result in a failure of the associated active mechanical component to perform its intended function, and whether the housing meets the long-lived and passive criteria as defined in the Rule.Specifically, housings for fans and dampers that perform a pressure retention and/or structural integrity function, which if not maintained, could prevent the associated active mechanical component from performing its intended function.
Housings that perform these functions and meet the long-lived and passive criteria are subject to an AMR.ONS considered the non-active part of a component that performs a function within the scope of Part 54 (e.g., Fan and Damper Housings).
These reviews considered not just the active mechanical component, but also the intended function of its associated housing. The following Air Conditioning, Heating, Cooling and Ventilation Systems within the scope of License Renewal were evaluated as part of this process: " Standby Shutdown Facility HVAC* Reactor Building Cooling System" Auxiliary Building Ventilation System* Control Room Pressurization and Filtration System* Penetration Room Ventilation System" Reactor Building Purge System Although the Fan and Damper Housings were evaluated as an integral part of the "Ductwork" commodity in the original LRA since they also perform a pressure boundary component intended function, these components were not explicitly identified as a commodity group such as "Fan and Damper Housings" in the submittal.
Impact on ONS UFSAR Chapter 18 New UFSAR sections have been generated and incorporated into Chapter 18, Section 3.17, Preventative Maintenance Activities.
Tables 2.1 and 2.2 contain the AMR review summary for internal and external environments.

The Turbine Guide Bearing Oil Coolers provide the necessary flow of lubricating oil to the Keowee turbine guide bearings.Although the Turbine Guide Bearing Oil Coolers were originally included within the scope of License Renewal in the original LRA, the heat transfer intended function for these heat exchangers was not identified at that time, only the pressure boundary intended function.
Heat transfer has since been identified as a License Renewal intended function for these components as part of the Problem Investigation Program (PIP).Impact on ONS UFSAR Chapter 18 A new UFSAR section has been generated and incorporated into Chapter 18, Section 3.17, Preventative Maintenance Activities.
