Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 207 / Friday, October 27, 2017 / Notices the NRC staff’s basis that the actions are feasible. Section 3.5.11 provides a discussion of the available time margin. The licensee provided a basis that the actions were reliable based on the available time margin; the administrative controls such as procedures, staffing levels, and availability of equipment; and by accounting for uncertainty in fires and plant conditions. Therefore, the OMAs included in this review are reliable because there is adequate time available to account for uncertainties not only in estimates of the time available, but also in estimates of how long it takes to diagnose a fire and execute the OMAs (e.g., as based, at least in part, on a plant demonstration of the actions under nonfire conditions). For example, OMA 1 establishes the RWST as the suction supply for the charging system and is not conducted until after AFW is established. Further, since the BASTs have a minimum TRM specified inventory to ensure 72 minutes of flow, OMA 1 can be completed with 40 minutes of margin. asabaliauskas on DSKBBXCHB2PROD with NOTICES A.6 Summary of DID and Operator Manual Actions In summary, the DID concept for a fire in the fire areas discussed above provides a level of safety that results in the unlikely occurrence of fires, rapid detection, control, and extinguishment of fires that do occur and the protection of SSCs important to safety. As discussed above, the licensee has provided preventative and protective measures in addition to feasible and reliable OMAs that, together, demonstrate the licensee’s ability to preserve or maintain safe shutdown capability in the event of a fire in the analyzed fire areas. B. Authorized by Law This exemption would allow Millstone 2 to rely on OMAs, in conjunction with the other installed fire protection features, to ensure that at least one means of achieving and maintaining hot shutdown remains available during and following a postulated fire event as part of its fire protection program, in lieu of meeting the requirements specified in 10 CFR part 50, appendix R, section III.G.2, for a fire in the analyzed fire areas. As stated above, § 50.12 allows the NRC to grant exemptions from the requirements of 10 CFR part 50. The NRC staff has determined that granting of this exemption will not result in a violation of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, or the Commission’s regulations. Therefore, the exemption is authorized by law. VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:56 Oct 26, 2017 Jkt 244001 C. No Undue Risk to Public Health and Safety The underlying purpose of 10 CFR part 50, appendix R, section III.G, is to ensure that at least one means of achieving and maintaining hot shutdown remains available during and following a postulated fire event. Based on the above, no new accident precursors are created by the use of the specific OMAs, in conjunction with the other installed fire protection features, in response to a fire in the analyzed fire areas. Therefore, the probability of postulated accidents is not increased. Also, based on the above, the consequences of postulated accidents are not increased. Therefore, there is no undue risk to public health and safety. D. Consistent With the Common Defense and Security This exemption would allow Millstone 2 to credit the use of the specific OMAs, in conjunction with the other installed fire protection features, in response to a fire in the analyzed fire areas discussed above, in lieu of meeting the requirements specified in 10 CFR part 50, appendix R, section III.G.2. This change, to the operation of the plant, has no relation to security issues. Therefore, the common defense and security is not diminished by this exemption. E. Special Circumstances One of the special circumstances described in § 50.12(a)(2)(ii) is that the application of the regulation is not necessary to achieve the underlying purpose of the rule. The underlying purpose of 10 CFR part 50, appendix R, section III.G, is to ensure that at least one means of achieving and maintaining hot shutdown remains available during and following a postulated fire event. While the licensee does not comply with the explicit requirements of 10 CFR part 50, appendix R, section III.G.2, specifically, it does meet the underlying purpose of section III.G as a whole by ensuring that safe shutdown capability remains available through the combination of DID and OMAs. Therefore, special circumstances exist that warrant the issuance of this exemption as required by § 50.12(a)(2)(ii). IV. Conclusion Based on the all of the features of the DID concept discussed above, the NRC staff concludes that the use of the requested OMAs, in these particular instances and in conjunction with the other installed fire protection features, in lieu of strict compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR part 50, PO 00000 Frm 00089 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 49869 appendix R, section III.G.2, is consistent with the underlying purpose of the rule. As such, the level of safety present at Millstone 2 is commensurate with the established safety standards for nuclear power plants. Accordingly, the Commission has determined that, pursuant to § 50.12(a), the exemption is authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety, is consistent with the common defense and security and that special circumstances are present to warrant issuance of the exemption. Therefore, the Commission hereby grants Dominion an exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR part 50, appendix R, section III.G.2, to utilize the OMAs discussed above at Millstone 2. Pursuant to § 51.32, an environmental assessment and finding of no significant impact related to this exemption was published in the Federal Register on September 28, 2017 (82 FR 45322). Based upon the environmental assessment, the Commission has determined that the granting of this exemption will not have a significant effect on the quality of the human environment. This exemption is effective upon issuance of this Federal Register notice. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 24th day of October, 2017. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Eric J. Benner, Deputy Director, Division of Operating Reactor Licensing, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
