Haddam Neck Plant Results of Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS)

Sinale Failure Analysis By letter dated April 28, 1989,(I) Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company (CYAPC0) provided the results - of the ECCS single failure analysis. The purpose of this letter is to provide the results of the service water and primary auxiliary building' (PAB) equipment operability analyses which were incomplete and not provided in the Apri 28, 1989, submittal.

ECCS Suncort System: Service Water E.3 1ssue The service water system should be analyzed to verify that it is capable of supplying adequate flow during the injection phase of a loss-of-coolant accident (1.0CA) with Valves SW-A0V-9, SW-A0V-738A and B, SW-FCV-1421E, SW-PCV-606, SW-FCV-Il2, SW-A0V-8, SW-TV-781A and B, SW-TV-2210, and SW-TV-2365A and B open.

Resolution As discussed in the April 28, 1989, letter, CYAPC0 contracted Westing-house (W) to perform a service water system reanalysis. This report was submitted separately on August 21, 1989, as part of the service water system Plant.gesign basis The. temperature report increase verifies that to 90'F the service waterfor the systemHaddam Neck is capable of supplying adequate flow, assuming these valves are open, except for (1) E. J. Mroczka letter to U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, "Haddam Neck Plant, Results of Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) Single Failure Analysis," dated April 28, 1989.

(2) E. J. Mroczka letter to U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, "lladdam Neck Plant Service Water System Design Basis Temperature Increase to 90*F,"

dated August 21, 1989.

ECCS Support System: Heatina. Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning (HVAC)

F.1 Issue Neither.the PAB exhaust nor supply ventilation systems are single failure proof. A loss of plant air (nonsafety-related) or the failure of numer-ous components could render these systems ineffective in providing PAB ventilation after a LOCA coincident with a loss of off-site power.

Operator access is required and may not be allowed if the failures occur after recirculation initiation.

Resolution As stated in the April 28, 1989, letter, the PAB ventilation is not single failure proof and, therefore, CYAPC0 has performed an evaluation to determine what effect, if any, loss of HVAC has on ECCS equipment operability. Calculations indicate that the peak ambient air temperature during a LOCA coincident with loss of HVAC will be approximately 145'F in the PAB and 130*F in the RHR pump cubicle. CYAPC0 has determined that these temperatures .will not impact the operability of the high-pressure safety injection (HPSI), low-pressure safety injection (LPSI), charging pump, or RHR equipment located in these areas.

Based on the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health,(3) operators will be able to enter the PAB at a temperature of 145'F to perform the required operations.

If you have any questions, please contact us.
