SUMMARY

OF JULY 28, 2010, TELECONFERENCE WITH DNC TO DISCUSS GENERIC LETTER 2004-02 SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (TAC NO. MC4695)

On July 28, 2010, a Category 1 public teleconference was held between the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and representatives of Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc.

(DNC). The purpose of the meeting was to discuss remaining issues identified during NRC staff review of the Millstone Power Station, Unit NO.3 (MPS3) Generic Letter (GL) 2004-02, "Potential Impact of Debris Blockage on Emergency Recirculation during Design Basis Accidents at Pressurized-Water Reactors:' supplemental response. Specifically, the meeting focused on the NRC's request for additional information (RAI) regarding the head loss and vortexing response.

The meeting was a follow-up to the April 8, April 20, and June 7,2010, Category 1 public teleconferences on Millstone Power Station, Unit Nos. 2 & 3 GL 2004-02 supplemental response and to the July 13, 2010, Category 1 public meeting on MPS3 GL 2004-02 supplemental response. A summary of the April 8, April 20, and June 7, 2010, teleconferences can be found at Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession Nos. ML101170575, ML101250623, and ML101590648, respectively. A summary of the July 13, 2010, public meeting can be found at ADAMS Accession No. ML102010261. The handouts from the July 13, 2010, public meeting can be found at ADAMS Accession No. ML101950505.

This meeting was intended to give DNC the opportunity to discuss potential paths forward for responding to the NRC staffs RAI dated February 4, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No.

ML100070068), specifically MPS3's RAI NO.6. The licensee provided draft responses to the NRC staffs RAI dated April 8, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML100980415). The licensee provided a revised copy of the draft responses based on discussions from the April 8, and April 20, 2010, teleconferences (ADAMS Accession No. ML101530556).

The NRC staff provided feedback on potential paths to resolve the remaining head loss and vortexing concern. The following potential approaches were discussed:

1. Perform a chemical test in the Rig-89 using a more prototypical debris bed.
2. Perform a chemical test in the Rig-33 at a pool depth representative of MPS3.
3. Demonstrate the Rig-33 test is non-representative of MPS3 through further testing (e.g.
