UNITED NUCLEAR REGULATORY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 June 4, 2013 LICENSEE: Pacific Gas and Electric Company FACILITY: Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1 and 2 SUBJECT: SUMMARY OF MARCH 27, 2013, TELECONFERENCE PUBLIC WITH PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY ON DIGITAL REPLACEMENT OF THE PROCESS PROTECTION SYSTEM PORTION OF THE REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM AND ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES ACTUATION SYSTEM AT DIABLO CANYON POWER PLANT. UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 (TAC NOS. ME7522 AND ME7523) On March 27,2013, a Category 1 teleconference public meeting was held between the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and representatives of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E, the licensee) at NRC Headquarters, One White Flint North, 11555 Rockvi"e Pike, Rockvi"e, Maryland. The purpose of the teleconference meeting was to discuss the license amendment request (LAR) submitted by PG&E on October 26, 2011, for the Digital Replacement of the Process Protection System (PPS) Portion of the Reactor Trip System and Engineered Safety Features Actuation System at Diablo Canyon Power Plant (DCPP), Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML 113070457). The meeting notice and agenda, dated March 15, 2013, is available in ADAMS at Accession No, IVIL1307 4A 118. A list of attendees is provided as Enclosure 1. This meeting is one in a series of publicly noticed teleconference meetings to be held periodically between NRC staff and PG&E to discuss issues associated with the NRC staff's LAR review. Preliminary issues identified by the NRC staff during the review and licensee responses to those issues were discussed during the meeting. The list of preliminary issues that are still in discussion and review is provided in Enclosure 2 ("open items"). Those preliminary issues that have either been closed as questions or resulted in NRC requests for additional information (RAls) were archived in a "closed items" tracking table in Enclosure 3, The updated NRC staff's LAR review project plan was also discussed and is provided in Enclosure 4. Discussion highlights from this meeting include: The NRC staff from the Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response (NSIR) was present to discuss how PG&E is implementing the security measures described in the NRC-approved DCPP Cyber Security Plan within the PPS digital upgrade. PG&E's staff reviewed the licensee's methods for incorporating cyber security reviews during PPS development. The NRC's NSIR staff wi" update cyber security-related action items prior to the next meeting, and meeting attendees concurred that an additional, non-public meeting for review of proprietary and/or sensitive but unclassified items will not be needed.

-2 The NRC staff discussed a number of action items from Enclosure 2 that will be closed and transitioned to Enclosure 3 due to incorporation in a set of RAls to be issued shortly by the NRC. The NRC and PG&E staff discussed a number of action items from Enclosure 2 that are awaiting PG&E document submission. These include docket submission or SharePoint posting of the remainder of the Phase 2 documents, a PG&E LAR supplement, and PG&E's responses to the above RAls. Since PG&E's staff stated that these documents will not be available until late April, the next periodic teleconference public meeting will not be scheduled until at least 2 weeks after PG&E document submission to allow time for the NRC staff's review. The NRC staff discussed the recent receipt of the PG&E summary report regarding this LAR's potential impacts with the DCPP Technical Specifications (TS). Further, NRC staff discussion will be guided by NRC TS Branch input following their review of this report. The NRC and PG&E staff discussed the responsibility, timing, performance, and documentation of the software hazard analysis during the various design, development, testing, and implementation phases. The NRC and PG&E staff discussed the Enclosure 4 project plan on the timing of the following: safety evaluation report (SER) for the Westinghouse Advanced , Logic System (ALS) Platform; NRC staff audit reports (technical and cyber security) and completion of the February 11-14, 2013 onsite audit of the PG&E supporting vendor CS InnovationslWestinghouse; and PG&E LAR supplement and RAI responses. Additionally, the NRC and licensee discussed the timing of the remaining PG&E Phase 2 document submittals and the next licensee-vendor NRC staff audit and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) trips. The NRC staff discussed the impact of the changing PG&E document submission milestones on completion of the NRC safety evaluation. The NRC staff and the licensee agreed that the next periodic teleconference public meeting on this topic would be held in approximately mid-May 2013 with the exact timing dependent on PG&E document submission including a minimum two-week NRC review allowance. A member of the public was in attendance. Public Meeting Feedback forms were not received.

The document provides a qualitative comparison of features important to the reliability of the Tricon and AlS subystems and the Eagle 21 system, evaluates the applicability of the WCAP-14333 P A, Revision 1, and 15376-P-A, Revision 1, analyses to the PPS replacement configuration, and evaluates the compliance with the staff conditions and limitations contained in the NRC safety evaluations forWCAP-14333 and WCAP 15376 and Section 4.3 ofthe Amendments 179 and 181. 64 RA Closed RAI40 Software Management Plan To close Items 27 and 29, PG&E issued the DCPPS Project Quality Assurance Plan to define the oversight activities to be performed during the PPS replacement project. Section 2 of this plan describes the responsibilities of those involved in oversight activities. However, it is not clear how these roles and responsibilities correlate to the project organization described in PG&E PPS Replacement Plan (Attachment 3 of the LAR) and PG&E PPS Replacement System Quality Assurance Plan (Attachment 4 of the LAR). For example, the Project Quality Assurance Plan describes the responsibilities of the PPS replacement Project Manager, but this role is not described in other documents, Further, the responsibility described seems to align with the responsibility of the PG&E Project Manager. Please explain the relationship, if any, of the roles and responsibilities described in the DCPPS Project Quality Assurance Plan and those provided in other PG&E plans. PG&E Response: The "Quality Assurance Plan for Diablo Canyon Process Protection System Replacement" (referred to as the "Project Quality Plan" in response to Ols 27 and 29) was a project specific document created by the Quality Verification group (a Quality Assurance organization) to identify the March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Open Item Summary Table Page 6 of 32 No SrclRl Issue Description P&GE response: Status RAINo. (Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Quality Assurance tasks to be performed by the Quality Verification group for the project. The "Quality Assurance Plan for Diablo Canyon Process Protection System Replacement" provides the specific plan to be used by the "Supervisor Project QA" identified in Section 3.5.1 (page 19) of the SyQAP and the "Project QA Engineer or Equivalent" identified in Section 3.5.8 of the SyQAP to provide PG&E quality oversight for the project which in part supports meeting 10 CFR 50 appendix B quality assurance requirements for the project. The "Supervisor Project QA" is not identified in the PPS Replacement Project Plan Figure 2-1 (PPS Replacement Project Organization) because they are not part of the Project Organization, but instead provide independent quality assurance oversight of the Project Organization. Section 6.1, "System Quality Assurance Plan (SyQAP), of the PPS Replacement Project Plan discusses the SyQAP, which in turn references the "Supervisor Project QA" in Section 3.5.1 (page 19) and the "Project QA Engineer or Equivalent" in Section 3.5.8 to provide PG&E quality oversight for the project. 65 RJS Open KVM Switch Questions: See Attachment 3 I PG&E Response: See Attachment 3 68 WEK Please provide a detailed functional description of the DCPP PPS NSR Gateway Computer(s) system; including computers/processors, communications protocols, and data isolation details, Or, please indicate where this information is explained within thel..AR and supporting Open RAI46 12-19-2012 update: Response did not answer the question about

Section 4.8.2 b) (page 110 of the LAR) states that " .. . AII other communication to non-safety equipment, i.e., Plant Computer, is via continuous one-way communication channels on the 102." Please describe how the 1Elnon-!E data communication and e/ectrical isolation is implemented within the ALS for this configuration. Also, explain how the ALS "A" & dB" inputs to the NSR Gateway Computers are isolated from each other, and data communication protocols associated with processing this data within the Gateway 12-19-2012 follow up As stated in the 12-17-2012 response below, the 1Elnon-1 E data communications electrical isolation is not part of the ALS topical reort review. Please provide adetailed explanation ofhow all 1Elnon-1E communications data electrical isolation between the ALS processor and NSR systems will be accomplished. PG&E Response: The DCPP Gateway computer and Gateway switch are part of an existing system that was installed by a previous project, and therefore were not included in the scope of the changes requested for approval in the LAR. Communications from the Gateway Switch to the Tricon are functionally isolated by the Triconex Communication Module (TCM) and NetOptics Model PA-CU Networl<: Port Aggregator Tap discussed in Tricon V10 SER Section 3.7.2.1. A fiberoptic data link provides electrical isolation. The NetOptics PA-CU Networl<: Port Aooreoator Tap was approved for this Page 7 of 32 -Comments -providing a functional description of the DCPP PPS NSR Gateway computers. The staff needs to understand how the Gateway computer and the Gateway Switch communication protocols will not corrupt the the data i signals coming from the ALS Protections sets 4 and not impact the execution of the ALS safety function. A detailed response to this question is needed in the LAR or supporting documents. See 12-19-2012 followup question re: electrical isolation for the DCPP PPS ALS.

The follow up question.Oconee SER described the methods they used to verify that Aggregator Port 1 provides one way outbound communications only. As a transmit only device, it does not listen to and is not affected by the communications protocol (or lack thereof) of the external device or system to which it is connected. The ability of the Port Aggregator Tap to prevent inbound communications to the Tricon from its Port 1 will be verified at the Tricon V10 FAT and the SAT as previously stated in PG&E Letter DCL-12-083 dated September 11, 2012. Updated PG&E Response 12/12/2013: The response to 01 #73, discusses Transmit Bus TxB2 data communication path from the ALS-102 Core Logic Board to the ALS MWS. Transmit Bus TxB1 transmits data from the ALS-102 CLB to the Gateway Both TxB1 and TxB2 are EIA-422 communication links in which capability is physically disabled by hardware as described in the ALS-102 Design Specification, 6002-10202. The receiver is configured such that the transmit data is looped back for channel integrity testing. The ALS-102 is physically and electrically incapable of receiving information from outside the ALS-102 via the Transmit Busses TxB1 and TxB2. Therefore, messages are not disregarded or rejected by the ALS-102. This is better than a "broken wire." The wire just isn't there, and there is no place to connect a wire if someone wanted to do so. Updated WEC Response 12/17/2012: The 1E/non-1 E data communication is described in the ALS Topical Report, Sections 2.2.1.3 and 5.3.2; and in 6116-00054, "Diablo Canyon PPS ISG04 Matrix", Position 2. The electrical isolation qualification of the 1E/non-1 E data communication is not part of the ALS Platform review project, and will be qualified with an isolation fault test that will be conducted 1st quarter 2013 per IEEE Std 384-1992, "IEEE Standard Criteria for Independence of Class 1 E Equipment and Circuits" and Regulatory Guide 1.75.

The network switches between the Port Aggregator taps and the MWS ensure that Tricon multicast operation will continue if the Tricon MWS were to cease communications. The network switches are redundant to ensure continued Tricon multicast operation on failure of a single Tricon network link. The application programs contained in the ALS and Tricon MWS units provide the following functionality: A. Westinghouse/CSI ALS Maintenance Workstation The on-line ALS MWS is required to maintain the ALS, including surveillance testing per the Technical Specifications calibration, and other required maintenance, and is similar in effect to the existing, approved Test in 8ypass capability. The diversity design of the ALS enables either (but not both) Chassis uN or Chassis "8" in a protection set to be bypassed for maintenance or testing while the other chassis remains fully operational (Although, in the bypassed condition, certain post-accident monitoring functions may not be available; this may be controlled administratively). Without the flexibility provided by the ALS diversity design, Technical Specifications would require tripping all the channels associated with the chassis when removing a given protection set ALS chassis from service. In turn, this would make up one channel in the coincidence logic for all channels in the affected ALS protection set. Such action increases the risk of inadvertently challenging plant safety systems were another channel to trip with the ALS protection set out of service. 1.

The ALS parameter display function allows the MWS to display parameters transmitted to it online by the one-way TxB2 transmit bus described in ALS Topical Report Section 2.2.1.3. The parameter display function does not require the TAB to be connected. The ASU parameter display function is a Visual C++ based application developed for the Microsoft Windows API using Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) libraries to provide graphical user interfaces for displaying ALS system status on the MWS and for providing user controlled access to the ALS controllers for performing maintenance operations such as calibration. Upon start-up, the application establishes a dedicated serial port connection to the MWS RS-422 serial communication card port that is connected to the ALS-102 unidirectional one-way TxB2 output in each ALS chassis "N and "B: These dedicated MWS serial ports receive ALS system status at a rate of 10 Hz (i.e., once every 100 ms). Upon establishing the dedicated serial port connection on the MWS, the ASU parameter display function spawns a software thread to receive, validate, and store the data received from the respective ALS-102 TxB2. Validation of the received data consists of checking the packet header contents, checking packet length, performing a CRC check on the packet contents, and then comparing the calculated CRC with the CRC inside the TxB2 packet. If the data received by the parameter display application is invalid (i.e. invalid CRC), the application indicates the issue on its graphical user interface (GUI) and an entry is made in the application status log. If the data received by the parameter display application is valid, the application records the ALS system status in a data class which contains methods that are called by different GUI to extract and display the specific ALS system status. Malfunctions of the ASU Pflrameter display function cannot adversely affect -Comment (WEK4]: The functional description -of the ALS Parameter Display is good. However, as stated previously, this discussion should be expanded to explain how the ; information provided by this display system will be used to " support or enhance execution of the safety function" for the PPS??

TriStation 1131 (TS1131) Developers Workbench TriStation 1131 is a PC-based application development workstation that provides a comprehensive set of development, test, monitor, validation and diagnostic tools for Triconex Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). The TS1131 program is utilized to maintain the PPS application program and may also be used for monitoring and troubleshooting purposes. The TS1131 program is described in the Tricon V10 SER Section 3.1.3.2. The TS1131 tool will be installed on the MWS. However, the TS1131 tool will not normally be running while the Tricon is performing its safety function [Tricon V1 0 SER Section 3.1 0.2.9J. If the TS1131 workstation is connected during online safety operation for maintenance or troubleshooting purposes, its use will be controlled via administrative controls and qualified maintenance personnel. Write access to the operating Tricon is govemed by the controller keyswitch. With the keyswitch in the RUN position, use of the TS1131 program is limited to read only access to the Tricon. Parameters may be examined, and application program operation may be observed in real time, but March 25, 2013 No SrclRl Issue Description DCPP PPS Open Item Summary Table P&GE response: Status RAINo. (Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Page 18 of 32 Comments changes are not possible. The TS1131 program can only write to the Tricon when the controller keyswitch is in the PROGRAM position. With the keyswitch not in RUN, the PPS application will initiate an alarm on the Main Annunciator system and the affected PPS set will be declared inoperable with respect to its safety function. Regardless of whether the keyswitch has been deliberately manipulated or whether the condition is the result of Tricon hardware or sofilNare failure, the internal Tricon diagnostics will detect a "keyswitch not in RUN" condition and the PPS application program will initiate a PPS Trouble alarm on the Main Annunciator System. When the "keyswitch not in RUN" condition exists, the affected Tricon is considered to be INOPERABLE with respect to its safety function. The operator would enter the appropriate Technical Specification LCO upon determination that the PPS trouble alarm was caused by the "keyswitch not in RUN" condition. The condition could be active in multiple Tricon protection sets because it could occur as a result of common cause Tricon failure. Even with the "keyswitch not in RUN" condition existing in multiple protection sets, negative impact is limited because on-line maintenance will normally be performed in one protection set at a time, and each Tricon protection set has its own dedicated, independent MWS. Therefore, only one Tricon protection set at a time would be configured physically to make sofilNare changes. If the TS1131 is not connected and running changes cannot occur even if the "keyswitch not in RUN" condition exists. That is, the mere existence of the "keyswitch not in RUN condition" does not initiate changes. Intentional action by a trained, knowledgeable individual is also required. Given the PPS trouble alarms that would be active in all affected protection sets, it is highly unlikely that unintended changes could occur. If a PPS Trouble alarm were to occur on the Main Annunciator System due to the "keyswitch not in RUN" condition, regardless of the cause, the operator would notify DCPP Maintenance. In the absence of the detailed alarm monitoring provided by an on-line MWS (via the TCM NET2 70 March 25,2013 DCPP PPS Open Item Summary Table Page 19 of 32 ..............----Issue Description Status RAINa. RAI CommentsIP/l.GE reSpon** , Response (Due Date) (Date Sent) ....interface), the maintenance technicians would be required to obtain work orders, gain access to the affected protection set, conned and boot the MWS, and only then could begin to determine the cause of the alarm. The alarm information would not be available if the alarm were due to a transient condition that cleared between the time the condition initiated and when the MWS was operational. Diagnosis of the condition could be delayed for several hours. With the on-line MWS and the alarm monitor function, the condition -whether caused by intentional manipulation of the Tricon controller keyswitch or by a hardware or software failure involving the keyswitch-would be identified immediately. As with the ALS, the on-line Tricon MWS is essential to maintain the Tricon safety function, including surveillance testing per the Technical Specifications and other required maintenance and is equivalent to the existing, approved Eagle 21 Test in Bypass capability. The MWS is required to bypass channels for testing. Removing a Tricon from service during such routine maintenance would require tripping aU the channels in that protection set, which would make up one channel in the coincidence logic for all channels in the protection set. This condition increases the risk of challenging plant safety systems should another channel trip inadvertently with the protection set out of service.

Block all unused Poris and keep any that may need to be reopened under design or configuration control. Again, we need a detailed explanation of how this 1-way design feature will prevent the KVM switch failures from affecting the ALS system. PG&E Response: Specific answers to these questions depend on the detailed design. Ports can be physically blocked, which might be appropriate for unused computer ports and the audio ports. It might not be appropriate for the unused USB port (which may be needed for a future printer) and the options port (which may be needed for firmware updates). Remote control switching or firmware update requires a custom serial cable. The firmware update requires specialized software on the computer being used to perform the update. Firmware update will be done by procedure. The MWS will be inside a locked cabinet inside a vital area inside the protected area. Inadvertent actions, while not impossible. will not be easy. If the switch is somehow manipulated. the ALS will not be affected even if the KVM switch fails because the ALS communicates only one-way with the MWS except for short periods when the TAB is enabled. Revised PG&E Response 12/16/2012: PG&E will physically block the audio port. USB Port 2 and unused computer ports. Physical blocks will be verified at SAT and controlled thereafter by the SCMP.

However, the document provided in Attachment 12 only provides a guideline for preparing Software Configuration Management (SCM) and SQA plans. Though it is understood that the licensee will not perform development of software, PGE personnel will become responsible for maintaining configuration control over software upon delivery from the vendor. The staff requires the actual plan to be used by the licensee for maintaining configuration control over PPS software in order to evaluate against the acceptance criteria of the SRP. For example, the ALS Configuration Management (CM) Plan (6002-00002) describes initial design activities related to ALS generic boards. This plan does describe the configuration management activities to be used for the development and application of the ALS platform for the Diablo Canyon PPS System. The staff requires that configuration management for this design be described in the DCPP project specific plan.

The status of the ALS platform on this matter is unclear at this time and will be resolved as the ALS L TR review is completed. Moreover, the Tricon V10 system Operational Mode Change (OMC) keyswitch does change operational modes of the 3008N MPs and enables the TriStation 1131 PC to change parameters, software algorithms, etc, related to the application program of the safety channel without the channel or division being in bypass or in trip. As stated in Section 3.1.3.2 of the Tricon V1 0 SER, the TriStation 1131 PC should not normally be connected while the Tricon V10 is operational and performing safety critical functions. However, it is physically possible for the TriStation PC to be connected at all times, and this should be strictly controlled via administrative controls (e.g., place the respective channel out of service while changing the software, parameters, etc). The LAR does not mention any administrative controls such as this to control the operation of the OMC (operational mode change) keyswitch. Furthermore, in order to leave the non-safety TriStation 1131 PC attached to the SR Tricon V10 system while the key switch is in the RUN position, a detailed FMEA of the TriStation 1131 PC system will be required to ascertain the potential effects this non-safety PC may have on the execution of the safety application program/operability of the channel or division. These issues must be addressed in order for the NRC staff to determine that the DCPP PPS complies with the NRC Staff Guidance provided in Staff Position 1, Point 11. The status of the ALS platform on this point is unclear at this time. during an NRC audit at the Invensys facility. All the items noted below will be the scope of the audit. 3/21/12 update: it was agreed that PG&E/lnvensys and PG&ElWestinghou se/CSI would provide a report (LAR supplement) to explain how these two issues will be resolved and submit to NRC-Date to be provided TBD.

Three additional plant variables were also listed in section 4.10.3.4. Status Closed RAI No. (Date Sent) RAI02 RAI Response (Due Date) Response Received 09/11/12 Page 16 of 74 Comments Some variables are not listed in section 4.10.3.4 as being PPS monitored plant parameters. It is therefore assumed that these parameters are provided as direct inputs to the SSPS and that the PPS is not relied upon for the completion of required reactor trip or safety functions associated with them. Please confirm that these plant parameters and associated safety functions will continue to operate independently from the PPS and that the replacement PPS will not adversely impact the system's ability to reliably perform these functions. P&GE response: The PPS Replacement LAR Sections 4.1.3 and 4.1.4 describe the plant variables from which RTS and ESFAS protective functions are generated. The initiation signal outputs to the SSPS coincidence logic are generated in the PPS or other, independent systems, or in some cases, by discrete devices. Section 4.1.3 items 6 (RCP bus UF, UV, and breaker position, 8 (Main Turbine trip fluid pressure and stop valve position) and 9 (seismic acceleration) are generated by discrete devices outside the PPS and provide direct contact inputs to the SSPS. Section 1.4 items 6 (Containment Exhaust Radiation) and 7 (RT breaker position Permissive 4) are also generated outside the PPS and are direct contact inputs to the SSPS. The initiation signals associated with these plant parameters operate independently from the PPS. The replacement PPS will not adversely affect the reliable performance of the safety functions associated with these plant parameters.

It is not entirely clear whether any of the described NIS protection functions will be performed by the PPS system. Please clarify exactly what the role of the PPS system is for these NIS Protection functions. P&GE response: Power range analog inputs are provided by the NIS to each PPS Protection Set for use in the calculation of the Overtemperature Delta-T and Overpower Delta-T Setpoint in the Delta-TlTavg channels. No other NIS signals interface with the PPS. The NIS Protection functions (RT and power range permissives) are generated independently by Nuclear Instrumentation bistable comparators.

Section 4.1.9 states that "Settings of the bistable comparators used to develop the permissives are not affected by the PPS Replacement Project", which implies that all of these permissive functions are performed by systems other than the PPS. However, it is still unclear if this statement applies to all permissive functions described throughout the LAR or if it applies only to those permissives relating to Pressurizer Pressure. It is also possible that the permissive functions are being performed by the existing PPS and will continue to be performed by the replacement system and therefore remain "not affected" by the PPS replacement project. Please provide additional information for the following permissive functions to clearly define what the role of the PPS system will be for each.

  • Permissive P6, P-8, P-9, and P-10 initiation signals are bistable comparator outputs from the independent NIS to the SSPS. There is no interface with the PPS.
  • Permissive P-4 initiation signals are direct contact inputs to the SSPS coincidence logic generated from contacts in the Reactor Trip Breakers (RTB). There is no interface with the PPS.
  • Permissive P-11, P-12, P-13, and P-14 initiation signals are generated by bistable comparator outputs generated in the PPS and sent to the SSPS.
  • Permissive P-7 is generated in the SSPS from 3 out of 4 power range NI channels (from NIS -P-10) below setpoint and 2/2 turbine impulse chamber pressure channels below setpoint (From PPS P13). The bistable initiation signals described above are monitored by the SSPS. The SSPS generates the Permissive when appropriate coincidence of initiation signals is detected. No SSPS permissive or safety function coincidence logic is changed by the PPS replacement project. Permissives P-6, P-7, P-8, P-9, P-10, and P-13 are functionally described in FSAR Table 7.2-2. Permissives P-4, P-11, P-12, and P-14 are functionally described in FSAR Table 7.3-3. The bistable comparator setpoints for the above-listed permissives are not expected to change at this time. The NRC understands that all permissives are developed within the SSPS system. Permissives P11 -P14 use inputs provided by PPS system. All other permissives use inputs generated by external systems that are independent of the PPS. See 13 below. 13 RS P12 Permissive Contradiction -The second paragraph of section 4.1.20 describes the P-12 interlock and states that "These signals are developed in the PPS".

(Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Comments following statement; "These valves are not safety-related, but are interlocked with the P-12 signal from the SSPS," In conjunction with the response to RA13, please provide a resolution for this contradiction in section 4.1.20 of the LAR. The NRC understands that the P12 signal is generated by the SSPS using signals developed in the PPS. 5/30/2012 Determined that no RAI will be needed for this item. P&GE response: The word "signals" in the referenced Section 4.1.20 sentence, "These signals are developed ... " is referring to the bistable comparator outputs which are monitored by the SSPS. The PPS does not generate the P-12 Permissive itself. The actual P-12 Permissive is generated by the SSPS when appropriate coincidence of initiation signals is detected. The SSPS output is interlocked with the valves as stated in the third paragraph of Section 4.1.20. The LAR Section 4.1.20 is clarified by the following statement: " ... The P-12 Permissive is developed in the SSPS based on coincidence of the P-12 bistable comparator output initiation signals from the PPS ... Protection System Permissives (P-11 unblock SI from ALS, P13 Turbine power permissive from Tricon, and P-14 Steam Generator Level high-high from Tricon) are generated by coincident logic in the SSPS based on initiating signals (bistable outputs) from the PPS as noted in the response to 01 #12. Permissive development, including initiating signals and logic coincidence is shown in FSARU Tables 7.2-2 (RTS) and 7.3-3 (ESFAS). The PPS does not perform coincident logic functions and does not "generate" any protection system permissives. 14 RS Section 4.1.1 SSPS contains the following statement in the last paragraph; "Information 'Concerning the PPS status is transmitted to the control board status lamps and annunciators by way ofthe SSPS control board demultiplexer and to the PPS bl wal ofthe SSPS computer Closed N/A PGE Response resolves this Open Item.

Closed RAI06 Response Received 09/11/12 This issue was discussed at the 4/1812011 CC. PGE proposed performance of separate but overlapping tests at each factory to accomplish the integration test. The staff has some concern over the fact that the MWS's to be installed in the plant would only be tested during the Tricon FAT. A fifth MWS to be configured the same as the plant MWS's is to be used during the ALS FAT. One option to resolve this concern may be to credit the SAT test results in the SE. The current schedule for SAT (July 2013) does support this. PG&E response: Additional information on the PPS testing is being provided to the staff.

The NetOptics Model PA-CU/PAD-CU1 PA-CU port aggregator network tap was approved previously by NRC for a similar application in the Oconee RPS SER Section 3.1.1.4.3 [18]. The NRC staff determined that due to the electrical isolation provided by use of fiber optic cables and the data isolation provided by the Port Tap and the Maintenance and Service Interface (MSI) in the Oconee RPS, there was reasonable assurance that a fault or failure within the Oconee Gateway computer or the Operator Aid Computer will not adversely affect the ability of the Oconee RPS to accomplish its safety functions. During the SAT PG&E will test the Protection Set communications paths illustrated in Figure 4-13 to verify that there is no inbound communications path associated with port aggregator network tap Port 1. That is, PG&E will verify that communications from Port 1 to either the TCM on Port A or the MWS on Port B of the port aggregator network tap are not permitted. Results of this test will be documented in final System Verification and Validation Report. Port aggregator dual in-line package (DIP) switch positions will be controlled by DCPP configuration management processes." In order for the Staff to approve the integrated configuration of the PPS, prior to shipment of the PPS equipment to DCPP site, all communications paths will require testing on or before FAT, and before completion of the SER.

Section 4.1.17 paragraph 3 discusses the protection functions associated with High -High Steam Generator Level or P-14. In this discussion it is stated that the SI signal initiates the same two functions (Turbine Trip and Feedwater Isolation) however, there is no mention of this in section 4.1.9 or in the discussion of the P-14 permissive. Please confirm that P-14 can be initiated by either High -High SG Level or by initiation of SI. b. This same section also states that the described latched in function Closed NIA Item initiated on 4/23/2012. PGE Response accepted. serves to comply with IEEE Std. 279 Section 4.16. The replacement March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 34 of 74 No SrclRI Issue Description P&GE response: Status RAI No. (Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Comments PPS system is not being evaluated against the criteria of IEEE 279. Instead, IEEE 603-1991 is being used and the equivalent criteria is contained in section 5.2 of IEEE 603 1991. PGE needs to understand that the criteria of IEEE 279 are not relevant to this review effort. PG&E response: a. Turbine Trip can be initiated by either the P-14 steam generator level protection function OR by the latched Safety Injection (SI). Section 4.1.17 describes the Steam Generator Level High-High Protection function P-14. Upon sensing high steam generator level, the PPS generates an initiation signal to the SSPS, which generates the turbine trip signal and initiates Auxiliary Feedwater when coincidence of 2 of 33 high-high level signals in any steam generator is detected. Section 4.1.9 describes Pressurizer Protection Functions, one of which is initiation of Safety Injection through the SSPS when coincidence 3 of 4 Pressurizer Pressure Low-Low signals from the PPS is detected. The SI actuation signal also actuates turbine trip and Auxiliary Feedwater through the SSPS, but SI is not initiated by Steam Generator Level High-High The P-14 protection function is initiated ONLY by steam Generator Level High-High. Through the SSPS, P-14 will trip the turbine and actuate Auxiliary Feedwater. A SI signal will also actuate Turbine trip and Auxiliary Feedwater, among other actions. Pressurizer Protection functions do not initiate P-14 and Steam Generator Level High-High P-14 does not initiate SI. b. PG&E intended Section 4.1 to describe the existing PPS and to apply only to the existing PPS, which complies with IEEE 279-1971. Sections 4.2 to 4.13 of the LAR apply to the PPS Replacement. Section 4.10.2.2 describes compliance of the PPS Replacement with IEEE 603-1991 Section 5.2. PG&E understands and appreciates that IEEE-603 applies to the PPS replacement.

Is it correct that both of these permissives are called "Power Range at Power" and that they perform different functions? Closed N/A Item initiated on 4/23/2012. PGE Response Accepted. PG&E response: Both P-9 and P-10 are "Power Range at Power" functions; both are active when the Power Range NI channels are at power. Permissive P-9 blocks reactor trip on turbine trip when 3 of 4 Power Range NI channels are below 50%. Permissive P-10 is active when 2 of 4 Power Range NI channels are above 10%. Permissive P-10 is combined with Turbine Power Permissive P-13 (which is active above approximately 10% turbine load) to provide input to Permissive P-7 that allows blocking several low power reactor trips. In effect, Permissive P-10 is the "Power Range at Power-Low" permissive" and Permissive P-9 is the Power Range at Power -High" permissive. This is consistent with the response to 01 #12, above. 26 RJS The PG&E SyOAP defines Supplier tasks that are related to assurance of software quality for each of the following phases of development; Project Initiation and Planning *

New RAI added March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table SrclRI Issue Description No P&GE response: Follow up of Item 21 -Software Test Plan In the response provided for Item 21, PG&E explained that a new revision (Rev. 1) of ALS document No. 6116-00005 was provided. The scope of Revision 1 is slightly different from the scope described in Rev. O. For example, Section 1.2 in both revisions states that test coverage includes all ALS modules, backplane, license sense modules (LSM), and ALS service unit (ASU). However Section 2, Test Items, for these revisions are different. Revision 1 only focuses on ALS-102 and backplane assemblies. This section does not include other ALS modules, LSM and ATU. Please explain why these other ALS modules are not included in section 2 of the new revision. 35 RA Further, Table 1-2 identifies "Diablo Canyon PPS Test Plan" as document No. 6116-00005, which is the same number than "Diablo Canyon PPS System Test Plan". Please clarify if this is referring to a different document. PG&E Response: The scope of both revisions are the same. Revision 1 changes added more detail into the overall scope. The details are broken down into 2 main parts: 1-The individual components, 2 -The System components. Both parts equal the entire ALS based Diablo Canyon system which includes all ALS modules, Backplane, ASU (incorrectly stated as ATU in the open item), LSM, ALS-102A1B specific to Diablo and full ALS system test which includes the testing of ALS slave cards required by the DCPP configuration. The entry in Table 1-2 for the Diablo Canyon PPS Test Plan, 6116-00005 is the same document as Diablo Canyon PPS System Test Plan 6116-00005. 36 Software Test Plan RA Section 5.3.6 of ALS Document No. 6116-00005 refers to a 'Test Team" to perform system level testing.

(Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Comments PG&E Response: The Project Procedures Manual (PPM) provides appropriate controls for project activities conducted at the Invensys Operations Management (Invensys) Lake Forest facility. These controls will ensure that all nuclear Class 1 E projects (or non-1 E projects where the customer has specified certain 1 E requirements) processes, project activities, and project documents will meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, 10 CFR Part 21 and the Invensys Quality Management System. This procedures manual provides specific controls for NAD as well as other Invensys organizations that perform nuclear safety-related system integration project activities. The PPM is a collection of different procedures, including referenced Forms, and is a controlled document. Each PPM procedure is intended to implement key areas of project activities. Each procedure within the PPM is assigned a unique document number and title. V& V activities during the PPS Replacement Project will be governed by several procedures within the PPM as defined in the SWP document, Invensys document 993754-1-802. The SWP will be revised to add the title of each procedure within the PPM where referenced in the SWP. For example, in the SWP, Section 1.1, where it states that, "the SWP was prepared in accordance with PPM 7.0 (Ref. 2.4.4)," will be revised to state that "the SWP was prepared in accordance with PPM 7.0, Application Program Development." The revised SWP Revision 3 wassubmitted in PG&E Letter DCL-12-028 on March 25, 2013. 47 RA Software V& V Invensys Document No. 993754-1-802, "Software Verification and Validation Plan" requires the use of V&V metrics to evaluate software development process and products.

The V&V metrics methodology, utilizing a diversity of software measures, provides insight into the rigor of the PPS software development process. V&V uses three distinct metrics during PPS software development: Software Quality Metrics The purpose of these metrics is to measure software quality by tracking the number of defects found in the design outputs (e.g., design documents, software). The method is to count and categorize defects found during V&V review of design outputs. The acceptance criterion is that no technical defects remain at the end of the current phase to receive V&V recommendation to proceed to the next project phase. Any defects that cause the non-compliance with customer requirements and/or non-compliance with NRC guidance are considered technical defects. V&V Effectiveness Metrics The purpose of these metrics is to measure the effectiveness of V&V reviews by measuring the percentage of design outputs which V&V reviews or tests. The method determines the percentage of design outputs actually reviewed by V&V (which is meaningful for in-process design changes necessitating a change impact analysis, revisions to released design outputs, and a regression analysis). The Acceptance Criterion is that 100 percent of comprehensive or delta change reviews is achieved in the current phase to receive V&V recommendation of proceeding to the next project phase. Software Safety Metrics The purpose of these metrics is to assess whether software safety requirements are being met. Methods are to count software hazards found during V&V review or testing of design outputs and to confirm software March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 53 of 74 No SrclRI ..................................

Please explain what PPM this is. Further, the Invensys "Validation Test Plan", Section 5.4.2 states that the Test Review Board and PG&E shall review SDIRs, but this is not indicated in the Invensys V&V plan. Please explain why this review activity is not identified as a V&V task in the V&V Plan. Closed RAI29 PG&E Response: The PPM 10.0 procedure defines the process to control nonconforming items and identify appropriate corrective action for all nuclear application projects developed at the Invensys Operations Management (Invensys) Lake Forest facility. This procedure is intended to provide controls for nonconforming items and corrective actions related to project activities. As used in this procedure, the term "nonconformance" describes deficiencies in parts and materials (items), documentation, and/or deviations from stated requirements. This procedure addresses the identification, documentation, evaluation, and disposition of nonconforming items. This procedure also describes the corrective action process to be used for project-related issues where corrective action is warranted. SWP Section 5.2.2.2.1 4) stated that Nuclear IV&V shall generate and verify the system-level Validation Test Plan, 993754-1-813, in accordance with PPM 6.0 [Ref 2.4.4], in conjunction with IEEE 829-1983. The SWP was developed in accordance with PPM 6.0, Test Control. In PPM 6.0, Test Control, it was stated that the Project Review Committee (PRC) shall review all test results for completeness, accuracy and acceptability.

Further, please explain how is this used in conjunction with Document Review Comment Sheet (ORCS) and System Deficiency Integration Report (SDIR)? Closed RAI30 PG&E Response: PPM 6.0, Test Control, defines the Test Logs. All test activities shall be recorded in a Test Log. The Test Log constitutes a continuous, hand-written journal of all test activities from the point of initial entry into the Test Procedure until the conclusion of all testing, including any required retesting. The Test Log shall include entries for sign-in and sign-out of all participating personnel, establishment of indicated prerequisites and initial conditions for testing, performance of testing and retesting, identification of problems, etc. The Test Log is intended to be a detailed journal of all testing activities sufficient to fully document the actual sequence of testing performed, the test results achieved and any problems that occurred, including their impact on test performance. The Test Log shall be reviewed by the PRC as part of its evaluation of the test results. The Test Logs are independent and separate from the Document Review Comment Sheet (ORCS) and System Deficiency Integration Report (SIDR). However, as a test narrative, the Test Log may identify the fact that a SIDR was generated as a result of test anomaly. 51.1.a RA Software Configuration Management 1. Configuration Process a) In open item 4, the staff requested description of the software configuration management activities for configurable boards (e.g., ALS FPGA-102 board). Since the ALS FPGA-102 board is customer specific, its configuration management activities are not covered by Closed RAI31 March 25,2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 55 of 74 No SrclRI Issue Description P&GE response: Status RAI No. (Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Comments "ALS Configuration Management Plan." Even though item 4 is closed, this request was not addressed in the response for item 4. PG&E Response: 09/18/2012 ALS-102 Configuration The FPGA installed on the ALS-1 02 board and therefore the ALS-1 02 board itself is specific to the PPS Protection set and the ALS subsystem in which it is installed. PG&E will not have the capability to alter the FPGA. Any change to the FPGA must be made by CS Innovations. Therefore, ALS-102 FPGA configuration management activities are covered by the ALS Configuration Management Plan. PG&E capability to change ALS-1 02 configuration will be limited to board-level replacement. 51.1.b RA Software Configuration Management 1. Configuration Process b) The PG&E SCM 36-01, item 1.2.8, states that ALS board has two sets of NVRAM. Further, it explains that the configuration of the NVRAM can be changed only by removing the subject board from the ALS chassis and inserting it into a special test fixture. It is not clear who will control this process and configuration of the NVRAM. Please explain. Closed RAI32 PG&E Response: 09/18/2012 ALS I/O boards are generic; that is, each board is configured using its NVRAM for the specific function it is to perform. This activity is described in SCM 36-01 Section 1.2.8, which states that the configuration of the NVRAM is changed by removing the subject board from the ALS chassis and inserting it into a special test fixture. This would be performed as part of a maintenance activity, such as replacing a failed board. If the functionality of an 1/0 board required modification as a result of an application change, all required NVRAM configuration alterations would be performed by CS Innovations under their ALS Configuration Management Plan. As with the ALS-1 02 FPGA discussed above, PG&E will not have the March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 56 of 74 No SrclRI Issue Description P&GE response: Status RAI No. (Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Comments capability to alter the NVRAM configuration itself. PGE capability to change the NVRAM configuration for a specific 1/0 board will be limited to loading NVRAM images that are under CS Innovations configuration control and that have been previously verified and validated at the system level by CS Innovations. Configuring the NVRAM in order to replace an 1/0 board will be performed by PG&E under an approved plant maintenance procedure. 51.1.c Software Configuration Management 1. Configuration Process c) Section 1.2 of the Invensys Document No. 993754-1-909, "Software Configuration Management Plan," states that this plan controls operating system of the computers used to run TriStation 1131 and the signal simulation software used for testing purpose. However, the description provided throughout the plan only focuses on the configuration activities for the TSAP (e.g., Section 2.3 states that the SCM procedures are for the TSAP). Further, this same section (later on) identifies the software configuration to be managed, and this list does not include operating system of the computers used to run TriStation 1131 and the signal simulation software used for testing purpose. Please clarify the scope of this plan and how the configuration of TriStation 1131 and the signal simulation software is managed. Closed RAI33 PG&E Response: 09/18/2012 There was no intent for the SCMP to do more than track the revision of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) software. In this case "Control" is defined as tracking the revision levels such that they are recorded on the project Master Configuration list, Invensys project document 993754-1-803. On page 7 of the SCMP, under "limitations," it states, in part, that the revision levels of this type of software will be tracked.

Changes and Problems Identification a) PG&E SCMP36-01 states that software, hardware, and configuration problems are reported in accordance with PG&E OM7.I01 and that software and/or configuration problems are reported via a PROG POCM Notification. Please clarify when and how these are used. For example, for software problems does one have to report the problem using both PG&E OM7.I01 and PROG POCM Notification. Note that PG&E CF2.I02 states that all problems associated with plant computer system should be reported and document per OM7.I01 (See section 5.11 and 5.16.10 (b) of CF2.I02) Further, Section 3.2.1 states that all PPS modifications should be initiated and tracked per plant procedures or CF4.101. Section 3.2.2 states that the implementation of the change is documented in the associated Change Package and a SAP notification and order. And Section 3.2.10 states that all identified problems and corrective actions using a notification, which is not specified. So should software modifications require reporting and tracking using OM7.I01, CF4.I01, PROG POCM Notification, Change Package, and SAP Order? Please explain PG&E procedures for different changes and the documenting and tracking system used for all types of modification PG&E Response: a) All problems are entered into the corrective action program using PG&E administrative procedure OM7.I01 and are required to be entered into an SAP (electronic business management software) notification (electronic tracking document). Notifications can be identified as different Work Types in order to categorize the type of problem, the priority of the problem, and to facilitate routing the problem to appropriate personnel needed to review and resolve the problem. A "PROG POCM" type notification is a program (PROG) plant digital configuration management (POCM) type of problem and software and configuration problems are examples of problems that would be assigned a Work Type of "PROG POCM" in the notification. Plant hardware problems are assigned a Work Type of "EQPR" to identify the problem as an equipment problem.

Changes and Problems Identification b) Please clarify the means to track changes. Section 3.2.4.7 of the SCM 36-01 states that this is done using a SAP order, but Section 3.2.4.7 states that Change Package and SAP order are entered in the Record Management System, and Section 3.3 describes a Configuration Status Account, which is used to track changes of configuration items. Closed RAI34 PG&E Response: The means to track changes is the SAP order. The Record Management System is the system used at Diablo Canyon to store and allow retrieval of documents to meet 10 CFR 50 Appendix B quality assurance requirements. Completed Change Packages and SAP orders are entered into the Record Management System for storage and to allow later retrieval. 51.4.a Software Configuration Management 3. Document Repository a. SCM 36-01, Section 2.3.3 identifies the Digital Systems Engineering SourceSafe as the repository, but Section 3.2.5.5 identifies http://dcpp142/idmws/homelasp, and Section 3.29 states that the files necessary for recovery of the baseline are maintained in the PPS database in SC-I-36M, Eagle 21 Tunable Constants."

PG&E Response: The Cyber Security program manager and other members of the CSAT (Cyber Security Assessment team) met with the Process Protection System (PPS) Upgrade design engineer beginning in 2011. Many options were discussed. The Cyber Security program manager and project manager have met with the procurement group to discuss cyber security principles that should be written into the procurement procedures, and what steps will help to ensure a secure supply chain. The Cyber Security Assessment Team (CSAT) was formed in accordance with section 3.1.2 of the cyber security plan, and Milestone a, on 10/31/2011. A list of critical digital systems and assets was created in accordance with section 3.1.3 of the cyber security plan and Milestone b on 10/31/2011. The CSAT looked at scheduled digital upgrades, and added the future equipment to the list of critical digital systems. The CSA T determined the PPS equipment will be a critical system, with several CDAs. From July 9-12 2012, the cyber security project manager accompanied members of the Quality Verification group to examine the design and production facilities of Invensys, and examined the code production practices and the development environment, and determined that Invensys has an SDE, and ensures their employees are reliable and trustworthy. Activities planned for the future.

March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 61 of 74 No SrclRI Issue Description P&GE response: In December of 2012, the network that the PPS will eventually reside on will be isolated from internet connected networks by a deterministic network device, per milestone c of the DCPP Cyber Security Plan. Thus many network attacks, including many that depend on a back door created by a vendor, will not be possible. Also by December of 2012, DCPP will have taken steps to lessen the likelihood of an attack initiated by a portable electronic device, or portable media such as a thumb drive per Milestone d, and section D 1.19 of NEI 09. This will mitigate portable media based attacks that depend on a back door created by a vendor. The DCPP Cyber Security Team will interface with NUPIC (Nuclear Procurement Issues Committee) and the NEIINITSL counterfeit parts task force to address digital equipment supply chain security. The Cyber Security Implementation Project Manager has developed a detailed project plan, with several tasks and schedules. Several existing plant procedures will be revised. The PPS will inherit the controls implemented by these procedures. Many of the procedures will have been changed/created before the PPS is installed. The CSAT is collecting design information as it becomes available. The collected design documentation is being reviewed as it is collected. The collected documentation will be reviewed in a formal desktop evaluation per the cyber security plan, section 3.1.5 prior to the PPS installation. The test set up in the offsite test lab near the plant will be visited on occasion by the CSAT, the system will be walked down repeatedly during installation, and the final walkdown will be performed when the system is ready to return to operations, per section 3.1.5 of the security plan.

Recommended mitigation will be documented in CyberWiz, and the Corrective Action Program. 53 RJS Section 4.10.2.6.3 of LAR: A tech specification change resulting from the recent Eagle 21 failure that affected the operability of the AFW control system is being reviewed by the staff. As part of this review PG&E has stated that the Independence between safety systems and other systems clause is not being met for all conditions of operation. If this is the case, then why does the PPS LAR not identify any exceptions to IEEE 603 clause 5.6.3? Even if the replacement PPS does not have an equivalent failure mode to the Eagle 21 system, the TS change would still apply after the upgrade is completed. The staff will need to confirm that the potential for this failure mode has been eliminated in the new design or that the criteria of IEEE 603 is otherwise being satisfied.

Rev.6 to PG&E Letter DCL-12-069 dated August 2. 2012 states in section 1.5.6 " ... TAB communications between the ALS and MWS takes place via RS-485 data link. The TAB is physically disconnected from the MWS when the TAB is not in use .... the TAB is open at all times unless maintenance is being performed on the ALS ... " Please identify administrative controls and design features associated with the PPS that explains how the MWS is disconnected/disabled from the PPS (Le., a means of physical cable disconnect, or a safety-qualified hardware switch that either physically opens the data transmission circuit or interrupts the connection by means of hardwired logic. "Hardwired logic" as used here refers to circuitry that physically interrupts the flow of information, such as an electronic AND gate circuit (that does not use software or firmware) with one input controlled by the hardware switch and the other connected to the information source: the information appears at the output of the gate only when the switch is in a position that applies a "TRUE" or "1" at the input to which it is connected. Provisions that rely on software to effect the disconnection are not acceptable. It is noted that software may be used in the safety system or in the workstation to accommodate the effects of the open circuit or for status logging or other purposes) that demonstrate how this hardwired switch disconnects the ALS maintenance workstation from the ALS safety processor. 10/19/12: If I understand the PG&E response correctly, these system effects are PG&E Response: For the ALS subsystem, instead of using a hardwire keyswitch, the ALS subsystem will be administratively controlled by physically disconnecting the communication link to the ALS MWS computer when the Test ALS Bus (TAB) is not being used for surveillance testing, maintenance, and trouble-shooting. This is a PPS replacement design change described in the response to NRC request for additional information in PG&E Letter DCL-12-083 and will be included in a supplement to LAR 11-07. 58 RJS ALS FMEA -There are several failure modes identified in Table 4-4 of the FMEA where the System Effects entry provides a description of functions that are not affected by the failure mode instead of stating what the effects of the failure mode are. For example, the System Effects in the ETT failure Close RAI38 59 March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 65 of 74 , CommentsStatus I RAI No. I RAINo SrclRI I Issue Description P&GE response: Response (Due Date) (Date Sent) in line 5b of table 4-4 are that the Alarm Function remains operational. Though this may be the case, it does not state what the effects of the failure mode are. Examples of this can be found in lines 5b, 6a, 6b, 7a, 9h, 9i, 11 b, 11 c, and 11 d. Please provide appropriate and complete information for System Effects in Table 4-4. PG&E Response: The System Effects entry does describe the functions that are affected by the failure mode. This entry must be read in the context of the entire FMEA table row. For example, the cited row for ETT failure in line 5b discusses the effects of failures of the ALS-402-1 digital output board which sends Alarm Signals to other systems. In the case of Energize to Trip outputs (ETT) a stuck open output channel will prevent the core A rack from being able to actuate the Alarm (in this case a specific instance of an ETT Alarm is cited, the "Containment Pressure in Test Alarm". However, due to the compensating features, which in this case is the redundant implementation of the function in the core B rack, the System Effect is that the Alarm function remains operational. A similar reading applies to the other examples cited. RJS ALS FMEA -Some of the identified failure modes of the ALS system are detectable only by operator observations, or by means that are not necessarily performed during routine operation or during surveillance testing. See lines 10c, and 12a, What measures will be implemented to ensure that these failure modes would not occur and remain undetected for an indefinite period of time? It is the staffs understanding that all failure modes which are not detectable through normal means such as surveillance tests or channel checks would need to be considered present for the purpose of satisfying single failure criteria for the being evaluated within the context of the local effects that are also provided in the FMEA. Application specific compensating features that influence the systematic effects of these failure modes are thus accounted for within the analysis.

March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 66 of 74 No SrclRI Issue Description P&GE response: Status RAI No. (Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Comments PG&E Response: Surveillance testing includes visual inspection of the equipment in addition to the specified test cases that demonstrate functionality. Therefore, those failure modes that are detected by operator observations will be detected as part of the surveillance test. IEEE Std 379-2000 defines detectable failures as those failures that can be identified through periodic testing or that can be revealed by alarm or anomalous indication. Therefore, such failures do not need to be considered to be present for purposes of evaluating single failure criterion compliance. The specific cases cited are clear examples. Line 10c discusses failures of the local partial trip indicators. Failures of the indicators do not affect the actual trip function. During the test the technician uses the indicators to confirm that the trip action occurs at the appropriate threshold. Thus the act of observation of the failure during surveillance testing is assured. Line 12a discusses failure of the serial link used for continuous monitoring of the ALS health. Failure of this link does not affect the safety functions of the rack, but would be immediately obvious at the workstation used to do the monitoring. This workstation is used in surveillance testing. 61 RA Software V& V Plan: ALS provided Revision 7 of its V&V plan (6002-00003).

The NRC staff determined that due to the electrical isolation provided by use of fiber optic cables and the data isolation provided by the Port Tap and the Maintenance and Service Interface (MSI) in the Oconee RPS, there was reasonable assurance that a fault or failure within the Oconee Gateway computer or the Operator Aid Computer will not adversely affect the ability of the Oconee RPS to accomplish its safety functions."

Circuit diagrams on the device itself indicated that the communications using Port C (Port 1 in the case of DCPP PPS application) may be capable of two-way communications. Since the original review of Model 96443, part No. PAD-CU Port Tap required NRC staff examination of actual schematic drawings of the circuitry to determine that there was no inbound communications path associated with Port C (Port 1 for the PPS), a similar schematic review for any replacement or updated model of the Port Tap must be evaluated in the same manner (by the licensee) to determine the manner in which it is being used and configured are acceptable, and that do not invalidate the conclusion of this SE that use of the Port Tap provides adequate data isolation between the Gateway computer and the digital RPS/ESPS.The Port Tap approved for Oconee was model 96443 PA-CU. 11-28-2012 Update: The response below still needs further clarification: Section 3.7.2.1 (palle March 25, 2013 DCPP PPS Closed Item Summary Table Page 70 of 74 No SrclRI Issue Description P&GE response: Status RAI No. (Date Sent) RAI Response (Due Date) Comments 71) of the approved Tricon V10 L TR SER (ML 12146A01 0) states: "The NetOptics Port aggregator Tap, Model 96443, No. PA-CU, or PAD-CU, is a device intended to allow monitoring of a 101100 Base T Ethernet communication link by communications and sending that copied information to a separate one-way communications link. Port A of the Port Tap is connected to the TCM, and Port B is connected to the Maintenance Terminal (maintenance video display unit (MVDU))." Since the LAR references the Port Tap approved within the Tricon V10 SER, this model number 96443 may still be confusing to the reader.
