I CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4 . 6.1. 4 INTERNAL PRESSURE The limitations on containment internal pressure ensure that the contain-ment peak pressure does not exceed the design pressure of 54 psig during MSLB or LOCA conditions.
The maximum peak pressure is obtained from a MSLB event. The limit of 1.0 l psig for initial positive containment pressure will limit the total pressure to less than the design pressure and is consistent with the accident analyses. .
1 3/4.6.1.5 AIR TEMPERATURE j The limitation on containment air temperature ensures that the contain-ment air temperature does not exceed the worst case combined LOCA/MSLB air ,
temperature profile and the liner temperature of 289'F. The containment air !
and liner temperature limits are consistent with the accident analyses. l 3/4.6.1.6 CONTAINMENT STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY ERT This limitation ensures that the structural integrity of the containment vessel will be maintained comparable to the original design standards for the life of the facility. Structural integrity is required to ensure that the i vessel will withstand the design pressure of 54 psig in the event of a LOCA or MSLB. The measurement of containment tendon lift off force, the visual and metallurgical examination of tendons, anchorages and liner and the Type A leakage tests are sufficient to demonstrate this capability. -
The surveillance requirements for demonstrating the containment's struc-tural integrity are in compliance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.35 " Inservice Surveillance of Ungrouted Tendons in Prestressed Concrete Containment Structures."

3/4.7.1.4 ACTIVITY (Continued) of 10 CFR Part 100 limits in the event of a steam line rupture. The dose calculations for an assumed steam line rupture include the effects of a coincident 1.0 GPM primary to secondary tube leak in the steam generator of the affected steam line and a concurrent loss of offsite electrical power. These values are consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses. .
3/4.7.1.5 MAIN STEAM LINE ISOLATION VALVES-The OPERABILITY of the main steam line isolation valves ensures that no more than one steam generator will blowdown in the event of a steam line ruptGre. This restriction is required to 1) minimize the positive reactivity effects of the Reactor Coolant System cooldown associated with the blowdown, and 2) limit the pressure rise within containment in the event the steam line rupture occurs within containment. The OPERABILITY of the main steam isolation valves within the closure times of the surveillance requirements are consistent with the assumptions used in the acjidentanalyses. g- qg7. g 3/4.7.1.6 MAIN FEEDWATER ISOLATION COMPONENTS (MFICs) l Feedwater isolation response time ensures a rapid isolation of feed flow ti the steam generators via the feedwater regulating valves, feedwater bypass
- valves, and as backup, feed pump discharge valves. The response time includes signal generation time and valve stroke. Feed lire block valves also receive a feedwater isolation signal since the steam line break accident analysis credits them in prevention of feed line volume flashing in some cases. Since the block valves are cot credited with isolation, they are not required to operate as fast as the isolation valves although equal response times for all valves are specified. Feedwater pumps are assumed to trip isusediately with an MSI signal,.
3/4.7.2 STEAM GENERATOR PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE LIMITATION The limitation on steam generator pressure and temperature ensures that the pressure induced stresses in the steam generators do not exceed the maximum allowable fracture toughness stress limits. The limitations of 70*F and 200-psig are based on a steam generator RT ,, of 50*F and are sufficient to prevent brittle fracture.
3/4.7.3 REACTOR BUILDING CLOSED COOLING WATER SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the reactor building closed cooling water system ensures that sufficient cooling capacity is available for continued operation of vital components and Engineered Safety Feature equipment during normal and accident conditions. The redundant cooling capacity of this system, assuming a single failure, is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses.

INSERT B - Pace B 3/4 7-3 The ability of the main steam line isolation valves (MSIVs) to close is verified after the plant has been heated up. Since it is necessary to establish a high Reactnr :
Coolant System temperature before the surveillance test can be performed, an I exception to Technical Specification 4.0.4 has been added to SR 4.7.1.5 to allow entry into Mode 3. This is necessary to allow plant startup to proceed with equipment that is believed to be OPERABLE, but that cannot be verified by performance of the surveillance test until the appropriate plant conditions have been established. After i entering Mode 3, and establishing the necessary plant conditions (Tavg >_515 F), the MSIVs will be declared inoperable if SR 4.7.1.5 has not been performed within the required frequency, plus 25%, in accordance with Technical Specifications 4.0.2 and 4.0.3. The action statement for Modes 2 and 3 would then be entered. However, the !
required actions can be deferred for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> (Technical Specification 4.0.3) to allow performance of SR 4.7.1.5.

Closing the MSIV(s) put the valve (s) in the required accident condition. However, the MSIVs may be opened to perform SR 4.7.1.5. If the MSIV(s) cannot be closed, the plant must be shut down to MODE 4.
