Abstract

This document is a supplemental safety evaluation report (SSER) for the technical review of the Beaver Valley Power Station (BVPS), Units 1 and 2, license renewal application (LRA) as filed by FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company (FENOC or the applicant). By letter dated August 27, 2007, FENOC submitted its application to the United States (US) Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for renewal of the BVPS, Units 1 and 2, operating licenses (Facility Operating License Numbers DPR-66 and NPF-73, respectively) for a period of 20 years beyond the current operating license. The NRC staff issued a safety evaluation report (SER), dated June 8, 2009, which summarizes the results of its safety review of the renewal application for compliance with the requirements of Title 10, Part 54, of the Code of Federal Regulations, (10 CFR Part 54), "Requirements for Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants." This SSER only provides changes to the June 2009 SER.

This SSER documents the NRC staffs evaluation of information provided by the applicant on supplemental volumetric examinations of the BVPS, Units 1 and 2 containment liners. The applicant provided additional information regarding examinations of the Units 1 and 2 containment liners as a result of discussion during the Advisory Committee of Reactor Safeguards meeting held in July 2009 and by letters dated July 28, 2009, September 2, 2009, September 4, 2009, September 8, 2009, and September 14, 2009.
