IUITIGATING STRATEGIES ASSESSMENTDAVIS-BESSE NUCLEAR POWER STATION

I.O BACKGROI-]ND

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS) has completed a mitigating strategiesassessmsnt (MSA) forthe impaets ofthe reevaluated seismic hazard to determine if themitigating (FLEX) strategies developed, implemented, and maintained in accordance withNuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Order EA-l 2-049 remain acceptable at the reevaluatedseismic hazard levels. The MSA was performed in accordance with the guidance provided inAppendix H ofNuclear Energy Institute (NEl) 12-06 Revision 2 (Reference llwhich wasendorsed by the NRC (Reference Z).

The Mitigating Strategies Seismic Hazard Information (MSSHI) is the reevatuated seismichazard information at DBNPS developed using the Probahilistic Seismic HazardAnalysis (PSHA). The MSSHI includes a performance-based Ground Motion ResponseSpectrum (AMRS), Uniform Hazard Response Spectra (UHRS) at various annual probabilities ofexceedaneeo and a family of seismic hazard cuwcs at various frequcncies and fractiles developedat the DBNPS control point elevation. DBNPS subrnitted the reevaluated seismic hazardinformation including thE UHRS, GMRS and the hazard curves to the NRC on March 3l, Z0l4(Reference 3). The NRC staffconcluded that the CMRS that was submitted adequatelycharacterizes the reevaluated seismic hazard for the DBNPS site (Reference 4). Section 6.1.1 ofReference 2 identifies the method described in Section H.4.4 of Reference I as applicahle toDBNPS.

Subsequent to the March 31,2014 submittal (Reference 3), the seismic hazard was updatedconsidering site specific damping in rock. The updated seismic hszard is the basis for the rccentstation Seismic Probabilistic Risk Assessment (SPRA) and also for the Expedited SeismicEvaluation Process (ESEP) Reports submitted by FirstEnergy Nuclear OperatingCompany $ENOC) on December I g, Z0l4 (Reference I 0).

Figure /-f presents the comparison of the Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE), ESEP GMRS

(Reference l0) and the GMRS reported in the DBNPS March 2014 submittal (Reference 3). The

difference in the GMRS results is aftributed to the material damping used for the rock material

overthe upper 500 feet (ft). While the GMRS reported in the March 2014 submittal is based on

the low strain damping of approximately 3.2 percent over a depth of 500 ft below the

Containment Building (CTMT) foundation, the GMRS used in the ESEP limits this damping

value to the upper 100 ft where the rock is considered as weathered or fractured. Below this

depth, a low strain damping of 1.0 percent is used based on the unweathered shale dynamic

properties from Stokoe et al. (Refcrence l7).

ln a letter dated October 19, 2015 (Reference l3), the NRC staffconveyed its acceptance of the

DBNPS ESEP. Therefore, the ESEP GMRS, characterized by a peak ground acceleration (PGA)

of 0.209, is the review level earthquake (RLE) considered for the MSA.

2.0 ASSESSIVIENT TO MSSHI

Consistent with Section H.4.4 (Path 4) of Reference l, the DBNPS GMRS has spectralaccelerations greater than the SSE but no more than two times the SSE anywhere in theI Hertz (Hz) to l0 Hz frequency range. As described in the FLEX Strategy Design andEquipment Bases Detail (Reference l8), the plant equipment relied on for FLEX strategies havepreviously been evaluated as seismically robust to the SSE levels. The basic elements within theMSA of Path 4 Structures, Systems, and Components (SSCs) are described in Reference LImplementation of each of these basic Path 4 elements forthe DBNPS site is summarized below.

2.1 Srnp I - Scopu or MSA plru*r Egulrnanxr

The scope of SSCs considered for the Path 4 MSA was determined following the guidance usedfor the ESEP defined in Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) 3002000704 (Reference g).

FLEX SSCs excluded from consideration in the ESEP were added to the MSA equipment scope.In addition, SSC fsilure modes not addressed in the ESEP that could potentially affect the FLEXstrategies were added and evaluated.

SSCs associated with the FLEX strategy that are inherently rugged or sufficiently rugged arediscussed in Section 2.J below and identifred in Section H.4.4 (Path 4) of Reference L TheseSScs were not explicitly added to the scope of MSA plant equipment.

2.2 $rsp 2 - ESEP Rsvlew

Equipment used in support of the FLEX strategies has been evaluated to demonshate seismicadequacy following the guidance in Section 5 of NEI l2-06, As stated ln Appendix H ofNEI l2-06, previous seismic evaluations should be credited to the extent that they apply for theassessment of the MSSHI. This includes the ESEP evaluations (Reference l0) forthe FLEXstrategies which wenE performed in accordance with EPRI 3002000?04 (Reference g). TheESEP evaluations remain applicable for this MSA since these evaluations directly addressed themost critical I Hz to l0 Hz part of the new seismic hazard using seismic responsss from thescaling of the design-basis analyses. Since all equipment in the Expedited Seismic EquipmentList (ESEL) satisfies the ESEP requirernents, they also meet the requirements for this MSA.

Therefore, oily component on the ESEL requires no further evaluation to show the Ctru" capacity

is acceptable. Separate evaluations are performed to address high-frequency (HF) exceedances

under the HF sensitive equipment assessment process, as required, and are documented in

Section d.0 of this report.

2.3 SrEp 3 - Ir*IHsRENTLY/SUprlclrNTLY RUCCEU EQulpMBrrlr

The qualitative assessment of certflin SSCs not included in the ESEP was accomplished

using (l) a qualiutive screening of "inherently ruggcdo'SSCs and (2) evaluation of SSCs to

determine if they are *'sufficiently rugged." Reference I documents the process and the

justification for this ruggedness assessment. SSCs that are either inherently rugged or

sufliciently rugged are described in Reference I and no further evaluations for these rugged

SSCs are required under the MSA.

2,4 Srsp 4 - Ev*uUATloNs Uslruc SecrlON H,5 op RsrsReNCE I

Step four for Path 4 plants includes the evaluations of;

l. FLEX Equipment Storage Buildings and Non-seismic Category I Structures that couldImpact FLEX imPlementation

?. Operator Pathways

3. Tie-Down of FLEX Portable Equipment

4. Seismic lnteractions not Included in ESEP that could Affect FLEX Strategies

5. Haul Paths

The results of the reviews of each of these ftve areas are descrihed in the sections below.

In addition to the FLEX portable equipment, various anchored mechanical and electrical

equipment (diesel-driven Emergency Feedwater (EFW) Pump, motor-driven Reactor Coolant

System (RCS) FLEX Charging and Booster Purnps, Motor Control Center (MCC), fuel oil

storage tank, battery charger, panels, etc.) were installed in the Emergency Feedwater Facility

(EFWF) and the Auxiliary Building (AUX) in support of the FLEX strategy. This equipment

was also evaluated under the GMRS level demand and found to all have Crtrzo capacities inexcess of the RLE PGA.

Forevaluations performed in accordance with $ection H.5 of Reference l, seismic demanddeveloped in support of the recent SPRA for DBNPS is used as input. As part of the SpRAseismic demand development, detailed building model analyses were performed for all SeismicCategory I structures. Using SPRA foundation input response specfia (FIRS) consistent with theGMRS as input, in-structure response spectra (ISRS) were obtained from these analyses. TheSPRA ISRS was also used to complete the ESEP analysis (Reference l0).

2,4.1 FLEX Equipment $tonnge Buildings

The EFWF and Service Building 7 (SB?) are used for FLEX equipment storage. The EFWF isdesignated for "N" FLEX equipment storage and the SB? for "N+l'n equipment storage. OtherFLEX equipment is located inside the AUX Building Area 6, Area ?, and Area B, herein referredto as AUX6, AUX7, and AUX8, respectively, or generally as AUX, typically ncar locationswhere the equipment will be used. The EFWF and the AUX locations provide protection fromall hazards - ineluding seismic events. The remainder of FLEX equipment is stored in theDBNPS Yard area.

Emergency Feedwater Facitify

DBNPS constructed a new EFWF to support the site's FLEX mitigation strategy. The EFWFis located inside the Protected Area (PA) to the west of the CTMT. The EFWF consists oftwo pails - (l) an Emergsncy Feedwater Storage Tank (EFWST) designed to holdapproximately 290,000 gallons sf sondensate quality water and (2) a facility used to house theEmergency Feedwater (EFW) system and FLEX equipment. The EFWST is at grade level,while the facility consists of three'floors. The basement of the facility, which is locatedapproximately 20 ft below grade, will store the diesel-driven EFW pump as well as a chemicalinjection skid. The first floor of the facility, situated at elevation {EL} SBd ft, houses theFLEX 'N' turbinE generator, FLEX pumps (i.e., Alternate Low Pressure EmergencyFeedwater'N' Pump, EF\ryST Replenishment 'N' Pump, Spent Fuel Spray 'N' Pump, etc.),and also provides the rneans of egress to the EFIVF. The second floor of the facility at EL 603ft stores the diesel fuel oil tank, batteries, 480VAC Main Controt Center, and other equipment.

The roof of the building is at approximate EL 620 ft. The EFWF is rectangularwith a total

footprint of 72 ft x 54 ft.

The EFWF is a reinforced concrete structure, The 54 ft x 34 ft EFWF basement mat

foundation bears on bedrock and the EFW$T 54 ft x 36 ft mat foundation is supported by

drilled piers socketed into bedrock. The first and second floors of the structure are supported

by composite beams. The roof consists of reinforced concrete slabs spanning between the

reinforced conerete walls. The roll-up door on the north side of the EFWF is shielded with a

Kevlar outer door that swings open.

The EFWF is a non-safety-related structure, and is not required forsafe shutdown of the plant;

however, to satisff NEI l2-06 (Reference l) requiremcntsn it is designed to withstand the

loads of a Seismic Category I structure. Seismic Category I structures at DBNPS are designed

fior seismic loads due ro the site SSE characterized by a 0.15g PGA and considering applicable

load combinations. The loads are compared to the strengths determined in accordance with

American Concrete lnstitute (ACI) 3l 8.

The failure modes of the structure are evaluated consideringthe mats, floor slabs, roof slabs,

shear walls, and foundation systems. With the exception of foundation systems, the

aforementioned failure modes were evaluated under the RLE to develop a Ctero capacity in

accordance with Section H.5 of Reference t. The roof system represents the governing failure

mode of the EFWF with a calculakd Crory,capacity well in excess ofthe RLE PCA. This

result is consistent with the Refergnse I Section H.4.4 guidance for sufficiently rugged

structurcs. Liquefaction and hearing capacity failures of the soil under the EFWF are not

required to b€ considered since the structure is founded on rock, directly or via piers, as

previously descrihd. Therefore it is concluded that the DBNPS EFWF has adequate seismic

capacity to withstand the RLE and meets the requirements to satisff Reference l, Appendix H.

Auxiliary Building

The AUX Buildings are Seismic Category I structures which house equipment serving

safety-related functions and have also been purposed for FLEX equipment storage. The AUX

is an L-shaped structure that partially surrounds the CTMT. The AUX is divided in three

separate areas which are isolated from each other and supported on independent foundation

systems' The Seismic Category I AUX buildings are designed for loads due to the DBNPSsite SSE characterized by a 0.159 pCA.

AUX6, the northeast pottion of the AUX, is 150 ftx 85 ft in plan. It is a four-story reinforcedconcrete structure. Slabs are located at ELs 585 ft, 603 ft, 623 ft, and 643 ft. The lateralresistance of the building sffucture is derived primarily by the shear walls. The walls transfervertical and shear forces as well as bending momsnts to the reinforced concrete foundationmat, which largely bears on rock. AUX6 is isolated from the adjacent CTMT, TurbineBuilding (TURB), and AUX7, through expansion joints that allow them to behave asindependent structures under gravity and seismic loads.

independent structures under gravity and seismic loads. Most of this building is founded on

rock at approximately EL 560 ft.

Based on the structural systems comprising the Seismic Category I AUX buildings, the

guidance sf Reference I Section H.4.4 indicates the buildings have sufficient seismic capacity

to withstand the RLE based on the EPRI NP-6041 screening uiteria and do not require

additional evaluations to demonstrate rohustness. Liquefaction and bearing capacity failures

of the soil under the AUX are not required to be considered since the structures are founded on

rock, directly or via piers, as previously described. Therefore it is concluded that the DBNPS

AUX has adequate seismic capacity to withstand the RLE and rneets the requirements to

satisfy Reference l, Appendix H.

Non-Lelsmic Cateeory I ,Structure$

Two non-Seismic Category I structures, the TURts and Service Building 7 (SB7), were

identified to serve functions related to the DBNPS FLEX strategies. The following provides

descriptions of the structures' constructionn design criteris, and FLEX funetions sered.

Turbiue Building

Several nornral operator travel paths to perform FLEX Suppon Guideline (FSG) actions are

through the non-Seismic Category I TURB per Reference t9. The TURB consists of a

concrete shear wsll structure and steel superstructurc. The concrete structure is from

EL 565 ft to EL 623 ft and the steel stnrcture is from EL 623 ft to EL 692 ft.

Perthe DBNPS Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) (Reference 2l)this building was

designed to the requirements of Unifornr Building Code (UBC) Code Zone l. While this

building was designed for seismic loading, the wind loading typically govems the design ofsteel frames when compared with a Zone I seismic coefficient.

The conmete shear walls and diaphragms of the TURB are sufliciently rugged per Reference I

Section H.4.4 guidance. For the steel frame superstructure, considering the scvere wind

loading and the fact that steel frame buildings exhibit large inelastic absorption capacity, it is

expected thatthe Cl0%seismic capacity is in exccss of the RLE PGA. Therefore it is

lune 12,2017Pn*c 18 ofll

reasonnblc to conclude that, under the RLGM, the TURB may sustain limited inelasticdisplacements to allow a safe pathway.

ln the event the normal operator travel paths through the TURB are not available after theRLE, multiple backup travel paths are available through ths Seismic Category I AUX. Thus,the integrity of the TURB and its operator pathways is not essential to implementing theFLEX strategies. Further discussion of operator pathways is provided in Section 2.i,2.

Service Building 7

In accordance with the FLEX diversity requirements, the FLEX Storage Building SB? housesthe *'N+1" FLEX portahle equipment such as a turbine generator, transcube fuet tank, debrisremoval truck, and Godwin purnps Brflong other portable items. During the walkdowns it wasnoted that none of the portable equipment was securely tied to the floor.

Per the DBNPS Final Integrated Plan (FlP) (Reference l4), SB? is a non-seismic Category I

commercial grade building that was used prior to and during I ERFO to store the newOnce-Tfuough Steam Cenerators (OTSGs). The structure, previously designated as the NewSteam Generator Storage Facility (NSCSF), is designed in accordance with the 201I OhioBuilding Code (OBC). The 201I OBC uses American Society of CivilEngineers (ASCE) 7-05 Es the basis for design loads- The superstructune is constructed ofpremanufrctured frames with roof and wall purlins to support the metfll siding and roofing.The substructure consists of a slab-on-grade, a perimeter grade wall with strip footingextending below the frost line and spread footings at the building frames. The finish floorelevation of SB7 is 584 ft-7 l/4 inches. Ths lateral resistance for SB? is provided by steelmoment frames in the transverse direction and steel tension rods in the longitudinal direction.The SB7 is separated in distance from the EFIVF.

Per Referencs l, Section H.4, equipment required to support an alternative means toaccomplish a function is not required to be included in the MSA and therefore no furtherreview is required for the SB7 and the FLEX equipment stored within it.

2.4.2 OperatorPathways

DBNPS has reviewed the operator pathways and verified that the operator pathways are not

impacted by the MSSHI. Considerations for this review included:

r Multiple available pathways or multiple FLEX components

. Pathway includes only Seismic Category I structures with previous reviewsfor seismic ruggedness - an exception is the TURB which is a non-SeismicCategory I building with available travel paths which is discussed below

r Debris removal capabilities for moderate to smaller seismic interac,tions

I Available time for operator actions

r Operator pathways were reviewed during a walkdown to asscss seismicinteractions associated with a GMRS level seismic event

A review of the operator pathways to perfornr the FSGs' actions (Reference l9) indicates normal

travel paths often are through the TURB which is non-Seismic Category I structure. However,

multiple backup travel paths are available through the Seismic Category I AUX to the locations

of the FSG actions. In the eventthe normal travel paths through the TURB are unavailable, the

paths through the AUX result in changes in response times mnging from potential time savings

to an addition of approximately three minutes (Reference I9).

Operator pathways from the Control Room to the EF\UF and equipment haul paths related to

FLEX implementation were walked down. Many of the preferred operator pathways at DBNPS

transit through the TURB or through areas of the AUX Building where housekeeping is a

potential concern, such as Radiation Protection (RP) storage areas with unrestrained file cabinets

and storage lockers. Nevertheless, the walkdown team identified a pathway located entirely

within Category I structures and free of potential seismic interactions. The operator can exit the

back door of the Control Room, walk west through Room 500 and down the stairs to EL 585 to

the roll-up door in the Fuel Handling Area and finally be outside next to the EFIUF.

Potential impairments to required access are: ( I ) doors and gates, and (2) site debris blocking

personnel or equipment access. The coping strategy to rnaintain site accessibility through doors

and gates is applicable to all phases of the FLEX coping strategies, but is immediately required

as part of the immediate activities required during Phase I.

Doors and gates serve a variety of barrier functions on the site, One primary function is securityand is discussed below. However, other barrier functions include fire, flood, radiation, prsssureboundary, tornado, and high Energy line break (HELB). As barriers, these doors and gates arprypically administratively controlled to maintain their function as barriers during normaloperations. Following a Beyond-Design-Basis Extemal Event (BDBEE) and subsequentExtended Loss of AC Power (ELAP) event, FLEX coping strategies require the routing of hosesand cables to be run through various barriers in order to connect beyond-design-basis (BDB)equipment to station fluid and electric systems. For this reason, certain barriers (gates and doors)will be opened in response to the evcnts and remain open. This violation of normaladministrative controls is acknowledged and is acceptable during the implementarion of FLEXcoping strategies.

The ability to open doors for ingress and egress, ventilation, or temporary cable#hoses routing isnecessary to implement the FLEX coping strategics. Operators responsible for implementingFLEX strategies have keys in their possession that provide access to all rcquired areas. Keyswill be tumed over between individuals as part of the Shift Relief and Turnover Process.

Access into the PA through the normal entrance (PA sally port) is protected by a security barrier.This barrier can be manually op€rated during a loss of all AC power. The ability to open thebanier during a loss of AC power event is achieved through Security Shift Supervisor trainingand the requirement of maintaining a minimum number of individuals qualified as Security ShiftSupervisors.

Two Heavy Duty Pickup Trucks will be used as debris removal and towing vehicles- They areequipped with snow plows to remove snow from travel paths as necessflry" One truck is stored inSB7 and the second is parked inside the PA on the north side of the plant such thar prevailingtornado path and width should not impact both debris removal trucks (diverse locations). Thetruck parked in the PA is not located near any structures which could fall on it and render itunavailable" Ice augers and chain saws are stnged in the trucks to create openings in the ice toacsess water during cold weather events if necessary.

Given the number and variety of potential paths, verification that multiple backup paths are inSeismic Category I structures, debris removal capability, available time for operator actions, and

walkdown observations, it is prohable operators will be able to gain access to the locations of the

FSC actions after the RLE.

2.4.3 Tie-Down of FLEX Portable Equipment

All portable equipment staged for use in the FLEX strategy is stored in either EFWF or AUX.

The trruo structures are described in.fectlon 2.4.1 The following portable equipment arE staged

in one of the two structures and are included in the FLEX strategy:

r FLEX ALT LP EFW 'N' Pump

r FLEX Replenishment'No Pump

r FLEX Spray *N' Pump

r FLEX -N' 480 Volt Turbine Generator

Descriptions forwhere each of thesE fits into the FLEX strategy can be found in the FIP

(Reference l4).

In addition, several other minor items are stored in these buildings. These items include:

. Ice Auger

I Fans

. Portable Generators (120 volt AC)

. Portable Generator Fuel Caddies

l Lighting

t Hand tools (saws, screwdrivsrs, wrenches, etc.)

Stored equipment were evaluated (for stability and restraint as required/necsssary) and protected

from seismic interactions to the SSE level as part of the FLEX design process to ensure that

unsecured and/or non-seismic components do not damage the FLEX equipment. ln addition,

large FLEX equipmsnt such as pumps and power supplies weFB secured as nesessary to protect

them during a SSE seismic event.

For the purposes of satisffing this MSA, all essential equipment is reevaluated to the RLE inaccordance with Section H.5 of Reference l. The 4160 breakerconnection cafts are light weightand restrained to straps and consequently are judged to have Cruuo capacities well in excess of theRLE PGA. The Trailer Caddy (not specifically FLEX equipment but used to supportmaintenance and stored in the EF\ryF) has a low weight and a low center of gravity and also has

a Ctoor" capacity in excess of the RLE PGA, Forthe rest of the essential portable equipment, it isconservatively assumed in the evaluation that no tie downs are installed and that all equipmentrelies solely on self-resistance. The evaluation demonstrates that, even with the veryconsetryative assumption, all essential portable equipment staged in the EFWF and AUXstructures has a Crtrro capacity greater than the RLE.

DBNPS has reviewed the stcrags requirements (including any tie-doffi or restraint devices) ineffect for FLEX portable cquiprnent and verified that the equipment has no adverse interactionsor significant damage that could irnpair the ability sf the equipment to perform its mitigatingstrategy function during or following the RLE using the methods described in Section H.5 ofReference l.

Having satisfied all requirements, there are no plans to modiff any tie downs or plant proceduresregarding the staging of the portable equipment in the EF1VF and AUX structures.

2.4.4 Additionnl Seismic Interactions

Seismic interactions that could potcntially affect the FLEX strategies and were not previouslyreviewed as part of the ESEP program (e.g., flooding from non-seismically robust tanks,interactions to distributed systems associated with the ESEP equipment list, etc.) were reviewedfor DBNPS.

A detailed walkdown was performed for this MSA to identift any potential interactions that wetre

not previously captured by the ESEP program. This walkdown included the EFWF structure, allnew equipment staged/installed within the EFWF stnrcture, AUX and Yard, and operator andhaul pathways. A sampling walkdown of FLEX piping connections and isolation valvessupporting the FLEX strategy was considered adequate due to the rugged nature and absence ofpotential interactions of the sample of connections walked down. Potential interactions foundduring the walkdown are discussed in detail below.

EL 586 ft in the EFWF is mostly used as storage for FLEX 'N' turbine generator, Godwin

pumps, panel enclosures, piping connections, and miscellaneous items such as hoses, carts, and

ladders. Larger items such as the turbine generator and Godwin pump$ are tied down with

ratchet straps csnnected to concrete expansion anchors. On the other hand, miscellaneous items

are unrestrained and there is no plan for the plant to restrain them, These unrestrained items are

at least I ft from the nearest trailer-mounted FLEX equipment. lt is judged that any potential

interaction would not impact the operability of the equipment. A CartCaddy and a portable fan

were observed to be in close proximity and it is judged that the interaction, if probable, would be

non-damaging.

EL 603 ft of the EFWF housesuitical electrical FLEX equipment such as MCCs, transformers,

panels, switchgears, and battery racks. This level also houses an exhaust fan and fuel oil storage

rank. During the walkdowns, it was observed that the grating at EL 603 ft is not restrained with

clips. This grating could potentially uplift and fall onto the FLEX pumps below. This concern

was communicated to plant personnel during the walkdowns and it was resommended to add

grating clips as identified on dcsign drawings. In response, DBNPS has generated an Order to

install rcstraints for the grating (CR 2016-14033).

Also on the EL 603 ft level of thc EFWF, #long ladder is loosely tied offto the handrail, but the

otherend of the ladder is frce to move and can potentially impactanearby MCC- Although

DBNPS housekeeping requirements only require the ladder to be tied offat one point, the

walkdown team recommended to tie it at several points to avoid rattling md contact behueen

MCC and ladder. Upon fumher review, the potenlial interaction between the ladder and IvICC is

indeed judged to be credible but noJ significant. The intenaction is not significant on the bases

that (l) the ladder lies on its side and a potential interaction would be with the sheet metal rear ofMCC which would not be damaging and (2) there are no chatter sensitive devices of concern

within MCC. In general, FLEX items at this level possess good anchorage design and are free ofseismic vulnerabi lities.

DBNPS has reviewed the additional seismic interactions and verified that the mitigation strategy

is not adversely impacted by the RLE.

2.4.5 Haul Path

DBNPS FLEX storage is designed to minimize the deployment routes to the operations areas(designed areas where FLEX equipment is operated). In additionn the DBNPS FLEX strategiesare intended to minimize the impact of debris by installing equipment in robust locations such asinside the AUX or the EFWF that minimize the number of activities the operators must performoutside.

Pre-determined, preferred haul paths have been identified and documented in theFSGs DB-OP-02705,lnitial Assessment, and FLEX Equipment Staging (Reference 20). Thepreferred haul path uses the normal vehicle entrance into the PA located adacent to thePersonnel Access Facility (PAF) at the southwcst comer of the PA. An altemate haul path intothe PA uses "Gate 10" which is the former main entry point in the Protected Area located at thenortheast comer of the PA. The current configuration of Gate l0 includes security features andbarriers that can be manually opened. The size of the pathway through each barrier is adequatefor the FLEX equipment deployment. Removal of the sccurity features and barrier would beperformed with security notification and is within the capability of debris removal equipment.

Once in the PA, the preferred haul path to FLEX staging Arca I and Area 2 tums north-northeastand continues along the PA west boundary. FLEX staging Area I is located adjacent the EFWF.From there, the haul path continues to the north to FLEX staging Area 2 located near the stationtransformers" From the PA Primary Access, the preferred haul path to FLEX staglng Area 3 andArea 4 continues to the east. FLEX staging Area 3 is outside the CAF. Frorn there, the haul pathcontinues east and then to the noftheast and eventually terminating at FLEX staging Area 4 nearthe Intake Suucture.

Additionally, the preferred haul paths attempt to avoid areas with tr€es, power lines, narrowpassages, etc. when practical- If debris interferes with planncd haul paths, two Heavy DutyPickup Trucks will be used as debris removal vehicles. One truck is stored on the north side ofthe plant inside the PA and the other in SB7 where prevailing tornado path and width should notimpact both debris removal trucks.

By procedure, all haul paths are kept clear during all operation modes. That is, no laydown areas

for refueling outages are permitted in areas that would impede implementation of the FLEX

strategy.

Haul paths were walked down for the RLE. Equipment haul paths are gsnerally within the PA,

and are free of potential seismic vulnerabilities. Two of the alternate haul paths cross small

bridges over the cooling tower basin discharge channel. One of the bridges is located just north

of the TURB and carries heavy industrial traffic, as a tankertruck was obserued driving over it

during the walkdown. These bridges are judged to be sufficiently rugged and do no-t present a

seismic concern. It is judged that the bridges will remain functional after an earthquake.

As described in the FIP (Reference I4), it is concluded that the subsurface soils and man-made

fill deposits encountered below the anticipated haul paths aro not considered to be susceptible to

liquefaction during seismic events.

DBHPS has reviewed the haul parhs and verified that the haul paths are not adversely impacted

by thc MSSHI.

3.0 SPENT FUEL POOL COOLING REVIEW

3.I SreNr Funl Poot Coot trrrc EvALUATtoN

The evaluation of spent fuel pool (SFP) cooling for DBNPS was perfonrred based on the initialconditions established in HEI l2-06 (Reference I ) for spent fuel cooling coping in the event ofan ELAP / Loss of normal access to the Ultimate Heat Sink (LUHS)" The evaluation also usedthc results of pool heat-up analyses from the ELAP evaluation as input.

The FLEX strategy for SFP cooling utilizes $FP level monitoring and make-up capability asdescribed in the DBNPS FIP(Reference l4). SFP make-upcapability is provided usingtheDiesel-Driven Emergency Feedwater Pump (EFWP) taking suction though a portable flexiblehose. The hose csnnection for the permanent, seismically designed primary cmcrgency SFPmake-up connection is located on an inside wall of the Fuel Handling Area. This new make-upheader for the FLEX SFP Cooling allows for connection of flexible hoses from the EFW systemto the new SFP make*up piping installed in the SFP area and finally to rhe SFP. This isaccomplished by routing hoses from FLEX connection EF48, EFW TO SFP Make-Up ThrottleValve (located in Mechanical Penetration Room 3), to Primary SFP Make*up Header (SFP TrainBay southeast comer 585 ft level)" Once connected, throttle valve EF48 is opened, as nscessflryto maintain SFP level. The source of make-upwatsr forthe EFW system isthe EFWST.

The permanently installed plant equipment relied on for the implementation of the SFP CoolingFLEX strategy has been designed and installed, or evaluated to remain functional, in accordancewith the pl*nt design basis to the SSE loading conditions. The SFP integrity evaluationsdemonstrated inherent margins of the SFP structure and interfacings plant equipment above theSSE to a peak spectral accelerfltion of 0.Bg (Refercnce l6),

If needed, the Alternate Low Pressure Emergency Feedwatcr *N' Pump, the EFWSTReplenishment 'N' PumP, or the Spent Fuel Spray 'N' Pump, all located in the EFWF, may beused as alternate SFP make sourcss. The portable FLEX equipment availability, including itsstorage and deployment pathways, and the permanently installed plant equiprnent needed toaccomplish SFP cooling have subsequently been evaluated under the RLE.

4.0 HIGH-FREQUENCY REVIEW

A HF revisw consistent with Reference l, Sections H.4.2 and H.4.4, was performed. The scope

of the HF review consists of devices with the potential to affect the following functions: Reactor

Trip / SCRAM, RCS Inventory, RCS Pressurrn Phase I FLEX, and Phase 2 FLEX.

Reactor Trip / SCRAM, RCS Pressure, nrd RCS inventory are overlapping $cope items between

the NTTF 2.1 HF confirmation performed in accordance with EPRI 3002004396 (Reference 7)

and the NEI l2-06 (Reference l) Appendix H MSA Path 4 HF evaluation; however, rcview is

not necessary for the former two system functions. HF sensitive devices with the potential to

affect RCS inventory have already heen evaluated as part of the NTTF 2.1 HF confirmations and

these evaluations can serve as the capacity bases f-or these deviees for MSA Path 4 HF revisw.

HF sensitive devices supporting Phase I FLEX and Phase 2 FLEX are scope items unique to the

MSA. A review ofthe equipment which cnsompa$ses the FLEX Phase I strategy indisates the

NTTF 2.1 HF confirmation has evaluated all potentially high-frequency sensitive devices ofconcern. FLEX Phase 2 equipment is installed such that they will nst automatically start and

connect to the plant and consequently there are no potentially HF sensitive devices of concern.

The DBNPS NTTF 2.1 HF confirmation (Reference 5) results show that the Croea capacities ofall devices evaluated exceed the CMRS PGA of 0.209. The HF review concludes that

potentially HF sensitive devices will not adversely impact the success of the FLEX strategy via

relay chatter for the RLE.

ENCLOSURE I - NEI 12-06 APPENDIX H PATH 2 HF REVIEW

I.O INTROI}UCTION

A high-frequency (HF) review consistent with Reference I Sections H.4.2 and H.4.4 was

performed. Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) l2-06 {Reference I ), Appendix H Section H.4.2

refers to Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) 3002004396 (Refenence 7) for the

high-frequency contact device analysis approach" Reference 7 is used for the Davis-Besse

Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS) engineering evaluations described in this report. Acceptance

criteria for the evaluatlons are found in Reference I, Appendix H, Section H.5. Note that a

previous High-Freqilency Confirmation, based on EPRI 3002004396, was suhmitted to the

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) (Reference 9). This Enclosure referc back to thal

suhmittal where possible.

T.ll SELECTION OF COMPONENTS

The fundamental objective of the MSA evaluation is to determine whether the FLEX strategies

developed, implemented and maintained in accordallce with NRC Order EA-|2-049

{Referenm 8) can be implemented considering the impacts of the reevaluated seismic hazard.

Within the applicable functions identified in Section H.4.2 (Path 2) (Refenence I ), the

components that woutrd need a high-frequency evaluation arc contact control devices subject to

intermittent states in seal-in or lock-out (SILO) circuits. Plants in Psth 2 are required to evaluate

SILO devices in the control systems of four specific categories: (l) Reactor Trip/Scram,

(2) Reactor Vessel Coolant Inventory leakage pathways, (3) FLEX Phase I Components, and

(4) Automatically Operated FLEX Phase 2 Components to ensure those functions perform as

nesessary in the FLEX slrategies. The equipment selection process for each of those categories

is described beXow. Note that categories (l) and (2) were addressed in the high-frequcncy

evaluation (Reference 9). Additionally, category (3) components were addressed in the

high-frequency evaluation, although not explicitly identified as FLEX Phase I components in

that submittal.

2.1 Relcron TnlpISCRAM

Section H.4.2 ofNEl l2-06 Appendix H (Reference l) identifies the reactortrip/SCRAMfunction as a function to be considered in the high-frequency evaluation, and was included inReference 9. The EPRI guidance for High-Frequency Confirmation (Reference ?) notes that *.the

design requirements preclude the applisation of seal-in or lock-out circuits that prevent reactortrip/SCRAM firnctions" and that no high-frequency review of the renctor trip/$CRAM systems isnectrssary. Therefore, no additional evaluations are nccessary for the reactor trip/SCRAMfunction.

2.2 RelcroR vnssul, fi{vnr{roRy ANI} pnBssunE coNTBoL

The equipment in the Reactor Vessel Inventory Control funetion are ths same equipmentevaluated in the DBNPS NTTF 2.1 High-Frequency Confirmation, and was included inReference 9. The primary concem fsrboth theNTTF 2.1 and MSA programs is theactuation ofvalves that have the potential to cau$e a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). A LOCA following aseismic event could provide a challenge to the mitigation strategies and lead to cop damage. perReference 3, Reactor Coolant System (RCS) Pressure control is accomplished through the use ofthe pressurizer heaters to nraintain saturation temperature and pressure within the pressurizer andpressurB reduction can be accomplished through the use of the PowerOperated Relief Valve(PORV) in venting steam to the pressurizer quench tank. RCS Overpressure protection is alsoafforded by means of the prcssurizer code safety valves (PSVs) that vent to the Containmentatmosphere.

Control circuits for the PORV as welt as other RCS valves and pressurizer heater controls wgrranalyzed as partof the DBNPS submiual to addressNTTF 2.1 resommendations (Reference g).The cornponents covered in this category are the same as those covered in the Rcs/ReastorVessel Inventory Control category of EPRI 3002004396 DBNPS submittal (Reference g).

HF sensitive devices with the potential to affect RCS inventory have already been evaluated aspart of the NTTF 2'l HF confinnations and these evaluations can serye as the capacity bases forthese devices for MSA Fath 4 HF review. A number of relays were identified in the HF review,which are identified in Tshle A-L

2.3 FLEX PHffie I

Section H.4.2 of NEI l2-06 Appendix H (Reference l) requires the analysis of relays and

contactors that may lead to circuit SILO that could impede the Phase I FLEX capabilities,

including vital buses fed by station batteries through inverters. Phase I of the FLEX Strategy is

defined in NEI l2-06 (Reference I ) as the initial respon$e period where a plant is relying solely

on installed plant equipment. During this phase, the plant has no AC power and is relying on

batteries, $team, and air accumulators to provide the motive force necessary to operate the

critical pumps, valves, instrumentation, and control circuits.

As stated in Reference 3, during Plant Modes l-4, Reactor Core Cooling and Heat Remsval is

maintained through natural circulation heat removal from the RCS via the Steam Generators

(SA). Natural circulation is maintained by ensuring adequate RCS inventory and preventing

voids at the top of the RCS hot legs. RCS inventory is maintained initially in Phase I by limitingleakage (isolating letdown and RCP Seal Return from the Control Room and crediting the actual

demonstrated RCP seal perforrnance during testing) to minimize RCS losses. Heat rejection

through the SGs is maintained by manually starting (from the Main Control Room) the

diesel-driven Emergency Feedwater Pump (EFWP) taking a suction on the Emergency

Feedwater Storage Tank (EFI[/ST) and providing inventory initially to SCI and later withoperator action to include SG2. Reactor Decay Heat (post trip) will be released via steam to the

atmosphere through the Main Steam Safbty Valvcs and later with manual operator action, via the

Atmospheric Vent Valves (AVVs) using the installed remote hand wheels.

DC bus load shedding will ensure 2P battery life is extended to I4.6 hours as described incalculation C-EE-002.01-016, Station Battery Discharge Analysis for Beyond-Design-Basis

Events. The FLEX 480V Generator will be used to repower installed station battery chargers

prior to bauery depletion. In addition, in the event the station DC or I20V AC Instrurment Bus

powcr distribution is damaged, FSC DB-OP-02707, Loss of DC Power, provides direction to use

portable meters to obtain key pararmeter information during a loss of all AC and DC power. RCS

makeup and boron addition from the Boratcd lUater Storage Tank (BVfST) or from the Clean

Waste Receiver Tank (CWRT) will be initiated within 4.5 hours to ensure natural circulation,

reactivity controi, and boron mixing is maintained.

A HF review of the Steam Driven Feedwater System and the newly installed Diesel-DrivenFeedwater System were performed in the High-Frequency Confirmation (Reference g), as part ofthe Section 2.4 Core Cooling evaluation. Because the Steam and Feedwater Rupture ControlSystem (SFRCS) is de-energized to actuate, many of the valves in the Steam Driven Feedwaterline that had a potential to reposition due to relay chatter would be placed in the desired positiondue to successful SFRCS f,ctuation.

Instrumentation is dependent on the availability of Essential DC power. Disfibution to the DChuses was also included in the HF review performed in Reference 9, as part of the Section 2.5AC/DC Power Support Systems evaluation. Relays were identified that could prevent powerdistribution to the battery chargers frorn the 4160VAC Buses. Those relays are identified inTahle A-1. The FLEX strategy is to perform a load shed to keep cssential londs prior toinitializing the FLEX Phase 2 480V Generators. It should be noted that there were no devicessubject to chatter that would prevent power disribution below 480VAC and no devices suhjectto chatter that would prevent power distribution from the l25VDC.

Finally, a comparison betrueen the equipment identified in Reference 3 and Reference g wasperformed, to conftrm that the HF component selection appropriately covered all the FLEXPhase I equipment. No additional equipment was identified during the review.

2.4 FLEX PH*ss 2 AuromATtc OpgRArloN

The DBNPS Phase 2 sfiategy includes sontinuation of the Phase I srategy. lf the SGs areavailable then no Containment Cooling is needed and Containment Isolation is sonfirmed as

resources permit. If the SGs are not available, the RCS is vented to Containment andContainment is vented to the atmosphere through the Emergency Hatch. This will ensureContainment pressure and temperature remain acceptable with no further action.

NEI I2-06 Appcndix H (Refereilce l) requires the inelusion of SILO relays and contactors thatcould impede FLEX capabilities for mitigation of seismic events in permanently installedPhase 2 SSCs that have the capability to begin operation without operator manual actions.

Witlt the loss of AC power, Phase 2 SSCs to be evaluated are llmited to any permanentlyinstalled FLEX genenator and, if allowed to autornatically start, any electrical components

powered by the FLEX generator and relied upon for Phase 2 of the FLEX Strategy. DBNPS

does not have any ptrrmanently installed Phase 2 equipment that would automatically stalt.

DBNPS credits a portable FLEX generator, FLEX RCS Charging Pumps, and other portable

pump$ as neccs$ary for Phase 2 response, and the operator actions necessary to install and

initiate the equipment. Since operator actions are necessary no devices subject to high frequency

were identified.
