Florida Power & Light Company L-2018-001 Enclosure Page 1 of 7 Response to Request for Supplemental Information The NRC staff requested Florida Power & Light (FPL) provide supplemental information for several answers included in the response to the request for additional information (RAI) submitted on October 30, 2017. This enclosure contains the relevant RAI questions and original FPL responses followed by additional information that supplements the original responses.

APLA RAI-2.01 Fire PRA In response to APLA RAI 02, the licensee stated that the fire PRA that will be used to support the risk-informed completion times (RICT) calculations will be the same fire PRA that was determined to be acceptable for the NFPA 805 transition and future self-approval. In a related response to APLA RAI 09, FPL states that [a]t the time of implementation of the RICT program, core damage frequency (CDF), and large early release frequency (LERF) will be estimated based on modifications completed for NFPA 805 as well as other changes in the model. The RICT program will only be implemented if it satisfies the limitations and conditions in Section 4, item 6 of the NEI 06-09

[safety evaluation].

As discussed in the May 28, 2015, safety evaluation on the amendment to transition the fire protection program to Section 50.48(c) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), FPL used the guidance in frequently asked question (FAQ) 08-0046, "Closure of National Fire Protection Association 805 Frequently Asked Question 08-0046 Incipient Fire Detection Systems" to incorporate its very early warning fire detection system (VEWFDS) into the fire PRA. When FAQ 08-0046 was released, there was limited test data and PRA experience available for in-cabinet applications. In December 2016, the NRC staff published new guidance on modeling VEWFDS in NUREG-2180, "Determining the Effectiveness, Limitations, and Operator Response for Very Early Warning Fire Detection Systems in Nuclear Facilities, (Delores-VEWFIRE)," which resulted from a confirmatory research program (including the evaluation of recent operating experience) to advance the state of knowledge for in-cabinet applications. The research program was unable to confirm several key assumptions from FAQ 08-0046 that were used in the calculation of risk. Upon further evaluation of operating experience and the results of recent testing, the program determined that the risk reduction available for cabinet fires that are monitored by a VEWFDS system using the new assumptions was significantly reduced. The method provided in NUREG-2180 is more robust and technically justifiable. The methodology in NUREG-2180 is currently the best available guidance and replaces the guidance in FAQ 08-0046, which has been retired.

By letter dated November 17, 2016 (ADAMS Accession No. ML16253A111), the NRC staff informed the industry that, [i]f a licensee is performing a periodic or interim PRA update, performing a fire risk evaluation in support of self-approval, or submitting a future risk informed license amendment request, the staffs expectation is that they will assess the impact of new operating experience and information [e.g., NUREG-2180] on their PRA analyses and incorporate the change as appropriate per Regulatory Guide 1.200, Revision 2.

a) If FPL will use the methodology in NUREG-2180 please provide

Florida Power & Light Company L-2018-001 Enclosure Page 2 of 7

1. An estimate of the current CDF and LERF for all quantified hazards using the NUREG-2180 methodology in the fire PRA.
2. If the current CDF and LERF estimates do not satisfy the limitations and conditions in Section 4, item 6 of the NEI 06-09 safety evaluation explain how these guidelines will be met before implementation of the RICT program.
3. If the methodology (e.g., approach, methods, data, and assumptions) has not been incorporated into the fire PRA (i.e., PRA model changes and documentation completed and the upgrade peer reviewed), explain when it will be incorporated into the PRA model of record that will be used to estimate RICTs (response may reference the response to APLA RAI 15 which requests a list of implementation items).

b) If FPL proposes not to use the methodology in NUREG-2180 please provide:

1. Confirmation that the methodology in the retired FAQ 08-0046 is not the proposed methodology.
2. A description of the proposed methodology (e.g., approach, methods, data, and assumptions) that will be used in the fire PRA. The description should include a detailed comparison of that proposed methodology with the methodology in NUREG-2180.
3. Justification of the proposed methodology including comparison with available experimental results. Development and use of a proposed alternative may result in additional RAIs and significantly extend the time and resources required to complete the review.
4. An estimate of the current CDF and LERF for each quantified hazard with fire PRA results: (1) without credit for VEWFDS, (2) that would be obtained had the guidance in NUREG-2180 been applied, and (3) obtained using the proposed methodology.
5. If the current CDF and LERF estimates do not satisfy the limitations and conditions in Section 4, item 6 of the NEI 06-09 safety evaluation, explain how these guidelines will be met before implementation of the RICT program.
6. An evaluation on how using the proposed methodology instead of the NUREG-2180 methodology could impact the RICT estimates.
7. If the methodology (e.g., approach, methods, data, and assumptions) has not been incorporated into the fire PRA (i.e., PRA model changes and documentation completed and the upgrade peer reviewed), explain when it will be incorporated into the PRA model of record that will be used to calculate the RICTs (response may reference the response to APLA RAI 15 which requests list a of implementation items).

FPL Response a) FPL will follow the methodology in NUREG 2180 or the latest approved operating experience (OE).

1. A sensitivity study performed with NUREG 2180 for all quantified hazards indicate the result is slightly over the threshold for CDF. However, these results do not include credit for mitigating strategies. For example, there is currently no credit for local

Florida Power & Light Company L-2018-001 Enclosure Page 3 of 7 operation of the auxiliary feedwater pumps due to assumed loss of indication in Fire PRA. Additionally Flex mitigating strategy is not included in fire PRA. Considering these credits offsets any increase in risk due to incipient detection.

2. These guidelines will be met by continually incorporating operating experience and methodology enhancements into the fire PRA consistent with the maintenance and upgrade process.
3. The methodology in NUREG-2180 will be incorporated into the fire PRA model of record used to estimate RICTs as part of the next fire PRA model consistent with the maintenance and update process in Regulatory Guide 1.200, An Approach for Determining the Technical Adequacy of Probabilistic Risk Assessment Results for Risk-Informed Activities.

b) Not applicable Supplemental Information The methodology in NUREG-2180 will be incorporated into the Turkey Point Fire PRA model. This update will include incorporation of the new event tree factors for the very early warning fire detection system (VEWFDS) as well as further refinements to the Fire PRA scenarios based on the conservatisms described below. These updates will be done using existing NRC approved Fire PRA methodologies.

The sensitivity evaluation for estimate of CDF and LERF for all quantified hazards with the NUREG-2180 methodology is as follows:

U3 CDF U3 LERF U4 CDF U4 LERF IE 7.18E-07 1.87E-08 7.13E-07 1.81E-08 IE Flood 1.62E-07 8.36E-10 1.13E-07 4.11E-10 Seismic 6.98E-07 6.98E-08 6.98E-07 6.98E-08 Fire 8.66E-05 5.35E-06 7.69E-05 4.85E-06 2180 Increase 1.03E-04 1.20E-05 1.03E-04 1.31E-05 Total with new fire 1.91E-04 1.74E-05 1.81E-04 1.80E-05 estimate Note: Seismic risk was evaluated based on plant-level High Confidence of Low Probability of Failure (HCLPF) using plant-specific data developed by EPRI. The bounding plant-level Seismic CDF is calculated as shown and LERF value is conservatively estimated as 10% of CDF value. See RAI-APLA-17, External Events, response As the current CDF and LERF estimates do not satisfy the limitations and conditions in Section 4, item 6 of the NEI 06-09 safety evaluation, additional refinements to the fire PRA are needed to meet these guidelines prior to implementation of the RICT program. These guidelines will be met by implementing the following published NUREGs and Fire PRA Frequently Asked Questions to the Fire PRA model:

Florida Power & Light Company L-2018-001 Enclosure Page 4 of 7

  • NUREG-2169, Nuclear Power Plant Fire Ignition Frequency and Non-Suppression Probability Estimation Using the Updated Fire Events Database,
  • NUREG-2178, Refining and Characterizing Heat Release Rates from Electrical Enclosures During Fire
  • FAQ 13-005, Cable Fires Special Cases: Self Ignited and Caused by Welding and Cutting, and
  • FAQ 13-006, Modeling Junction box Scenarios in a Fire PRA In addition to the above referenced standards, there are other known conservatisms in the current fire modeling used in the Turkey Point PRA. As an example, for cable spreading room panels, only two potential fire damage states are considered: (1) damage confined to the electrical panel, and (2) a more severe fire causing a hot gas layer to form resulting in full room damage. Another potential outcome would credit the installed Halon suppression system if a cabinet fire were to propagate externally. The Halon system would likely suppress the fire prior to bulk ignition of the cables and the resulting formation of a hot gas layer. Adding this intermediate fire damage state is an example of the changes that could be made to add realism to the PRA results (fire damages some fraction of cables in the vicinity but does not cause full room damage), reducing conservatism.

APLA RAI-12 Remaining Unresolved F&Os In Table 1 in LAR Enclosure 2, the licensee identified eleven unresolved facts and observations (F&Os) from the 2013 focused scope peer review. For each F&O FPL stated, [t]his will be resolved in the next model update to take place before implementation of 4b at [Turkey Point].

Expected to have little effect on 4b RICTs.

However, the NRC staff notes that it has not reviewed any proposed resolution to these F&Os during this 4b review and therefore has not accepted any of these resolutions as part of its review.

The NRC staff can review proposed changes to the PRA during the review of the LAR. However, the anticipated license condition will limit future changes to the PRA to acceptable PRA methods.

a) Please provide the resolution to any of these F&Os, with supporting evaluation as appropriate, for the staff to accept the resolution during the completion of the LAR review.

b) Please provide an implementation item identifying all remaining unresolved F&Os and specifying that Turkey Point shall resolve them using NRC approved methods (response may reference the response to APLA RAI 15 which requests a list of implementation items).

FPL Response The eleven findings listed as unresolved at the time of the LAR submittal have been resolved or closed in accordance with the NRC approved F&O closeout process.

As part of the process for F&O close out, some findings that were considered resolved in the submittal were determined to be not closed pending documentation update or additional justification. As part of the response to APLA RAI 15, these findings will be closed or a sensitivity case will be completed prior to implementation of the RICT Program.

Florida Power & Light Company L-2018-001 Enclosure Page 5 of 7 Supplemental Information A list of open F&Os is provided in Attachment 3 to this enclosure, Disposition and Resolution of Open Peer Review Findings and Self-Assessment Open Items.

APLA RAI-15 Implementation Items Please provide a list of activities (i.e., implementation items) that are credited as part of the approval of the request to implement a RICT program that will not be completed before issuing the amendment but must be complete before implementation of the RICT program.

a) Propose a mechanism to require the changes to be made before implementation of the RICT program such as a reference to the table of implementation items in a license condition in the proposed amendment to the Operating License.

b) The NRC staff considers the following as potential implementation activities.

  • Confirming that the all hazards CDF and LERF estimates will be less than 1E- 04/year and 1E-05/year respectively before implementing the RICT program (RAI 2)
  • Implementing minimum joint HEP or sequence level justification into the internal events PRA (RAI 06.01.b)
  • Resolving all of the eleven unresolved F&Os from the 2013 focused scope peer review identified in Table 1, LAR Enclosure 2. (RAI 12)

FPL Response a) FPL proposes the following license condition for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4:

FPL will complete the items listed in the table of implementation items in the enclosure to FPL letter L-2017-168 dated October 30, 2017 prior to implementation of the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

b) Table of implementation items:

Item Implementation Date

1. Confirm that the all hazards CDF and LERF estimates will be less than 1E- 04 per year and 1E-05 per year, respectively.
2. Close all open facts and observations findings or Prior to implementation perform a sensitivity study case to determine the impact of the Risk Informed on the CDF and LERF results that could be adversely Completion Time affected by each open finding. Program
3. Implement a joint HEP floor of 1E-06 or a similarly technically justified floor value in the internal events model.

Florida Power & Light Company L-2018-001 Enclosure Page 6 of 7 Supplemental Information FPL proposes the table of implementation items and the associated license condition as shown below.

Table of implementation items:

Item Implementation Date

1. Confirm that the all hazards CDF and LERF estimates achieved using NRC accepted methods will be less than 1E- 04 per year and 1E-05 per year, respectively.
2. All findings will be closed. Prior to implementation of the Risk Informed
3. Implement a joint HEP floor of 1E-06 in the internal Completion Time events model. For future model updates, once the HFE Program combinations have been analyzed and the HEP floor of 1E-06 applied, individual HFE combination probabilities may be set below 1E-06 if a detailed analysis is performed and technical justification is provided.

License Condition:

FPL will complete the items listed in the table of implementation items in the enclosure to FPL letter L-2018-001 dated February 15, 2018 prior to implementation of the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

APLA RAI-16 License Condition In Section 4.0, "Limitations and Conditions" of the NRC Staff safety evaluation to NEI 06-09, the staff stated:

As part of its review and approval of a licensee's application requesting to implement the [Risk Managed Technical Specifications] RMTS, the NRC staff intends to impose a license condition that will explicitly address the scope of the PRA and non-PRA methods approved by the NRC staff for use in the plant specific RMTS program. If a licensee wishes to change its methods, and the change is outside the bounds of the license condition, the licensee will need NRC approval, via a license amendment, of the implementation of the new method in its RMTS program.

Please propose a license condition limiting the scope of the PRA and non-PRA methods to what is approved by the NRC staff for use in the plant-specific RMTS program. An example is provided below.

Florida Power & Light Company L-2018-001 Enclosure Page 7 of 7 The risk assessment approach, methods, and data shall be acceptable to the NRC, be based on the as-built, as-operated, and maintained plant; and reflect the operating experience at the plant. Acceptable methods to assess the risk from extending the completion times must be PRA methods accepted as part of this license amendment, or other methods currently approved by the NRC for generic use. If a licensee wishes to change its methods and the change is outside the bounds of this license condition, the licensee will need prior NRC approval, via a license amendment.

FPL Response In lieu of a license condition, FPL proposes to add paragraphs f and g below to the Risk Informed Completion Time Program in Specification 6.8.4.n in the administrative section of the TS. This addition to the program limits the scope of the PRA and non-PRA methods to those approved by the NRC staff for use in the plant-specific RMTS program.

f. A RICT must be calculated using internal events, internal floods, and fire PRA. The PRA maintenance and upgrade process will validate that changes to the PRA models used in the RICT program follow the guidance in Appendix 1-A of ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009, "Standard for Level 1/Large Early Release Frequency Probabilistic Risk Assessment for Nuclear Power Plant Applications."
g. A report shall be submitted following each PRA upgrade and associated peer review, and prior to using the upgraded PRA to calculate a RICT. The report shall describe the scope of the upgrade.

Supplemental Information FPL withdraws its proposed change to add items f and g to the Risk Informed Completion Time Program in Specification 6.8.4.n. Instead, FPL proposes the following license condition, which is the same as that approved for Vogtle Units 1 and 2 in License Amendments 188 and 171, respectively, on August 8, 2017 (ML15127A669):

The risk assessment approach and methods, shall be acceptable to the NRC, be based on the as-built, as-operated, and maintained plant, and reflect the operating experience of the plant as specified in RG 1.200. Methods to assess the risk from extending the completion times must be PRA methods accepted as part of this license amendment, or other methods approved by the NRC for generic use. If the licensee wishes to change its methods, and the change is outside the bounds of this license condition, the licensee will seek prior NRC approval via a license amendment.

Those that are determined to be impossible or for which procedures do not exist are either deleted from the model or set to a low (1E-6) value.

The remaining events are quantified using ASEP. This approach seems reasonable, and an ASME inquiry about the acceptability of this method is pending. Table 3 shows the initial results of the importance review for all of the HFEs. Table 4 lists those selected for detailed evaluation and Table 5 shows the final listing of all HFEs. The list includes both single and common cause pre-initiators as required by the Standard. However, a comparison of the tabulated BE values with those shown in the model shows differences.

For example event HHFA3A106 is listed as having a probability of 3E-3 screening value; however, its value in the model is 1E-4.

Since these files control vital processes during quantification, independent review and thorough documentation is needed to ensure that the quantification results do not exclude valid failure sequences. The current mutually exclusive events file (PTN2KMEE.TXT) was changed as a result of the addition of new T&M events for LC/SWGR HVAC AHUs and Sump Level Indicators. The calculation package includes a description of "add double maintenance events for these basic events to mutually exclusive events." However, no justification for making the events mutually exclusive or specifying the combinations that are mutually exclusive is provided. In addition, the review of the mutually exclusive events file indicates that some complimentary combinations related to AFW pump maintenance may not be included. While this would lead to conservative results due to failure to remove invalid cutsets, the addition of inappropriate mutually exclusive combinations would have the opposite result.

Additionally, the identification of the specific initiating event for quantification was not performed per the requirements of FQ-A2. For quantification, the modeled initiating event is assumed to be a reactor trip in all cases.

During the walkdown, Compartments 70 and 71 both had permanently stored breaker grounding devices, with poly-covers, and 71 had a temporary transformer for the polar crane (operating). Both should be ranked as 'medium' for storage.

Similarly, the cable room had storage of 3 temporary fans, cables and blankets and should be marked as medium for storage. This room also appears to include numerous components that will likely be worked on during power, (ranking moderate for non-hot work), and numerous people were present during our limited walkdown.

Compartment 88, an open area in front of the switchgear room, had numerous combustibles stored and located, and should probably be marked as medium or high (presently marked as low). Both area 85 and 88 have frequent foot traffic, and should be marked as medium for occupancy. 85 appears as if it should be moderate for storage (no controls).
