Common Stars License Amendment Implementation of WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376. RTS and ESFAS Test Times, Completion Times, and Surveillance Test Intervals

Dear Commissioners and Staff:

In accordance with 10 CFR 50.90, enclosed is an application for amendment to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-80 and DPR-82 for Units I and 2 of the Diablo Canyon Power Plant, respectively. The proposed license amendment would revise Technical Specification (TS) 3.3.1, Reactor Trip System (RTS)

Instrumentation, TS 3.3.2, Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) Instrumentation, and TS 3.3.6, Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation, to adopt completion time, test bypass time, and surveillance frequency changes approved by the NRC in WCAP-1 4333-P-A, Revision 1, "Probabilistic Risk Analysis of the RPS and ESFAS Test Times and Completion Times," dated October 1998, and WCAP-15376-P-A, Revision 1, "Risk-Informed Assessment of the RTS and ESFAS Surveillance Test Intervals and Reactor Trip Breaker Test and Completion Times," dated March 2003.

This LAR proposes changes to several TS 3.3.1 and TS 3.3.2 pages also proposed for change in PG&E Letter DCL-02-125, 'License Amendment Request 02-06, Revisions to Technical Specifications 3.3.1, 'Reactor Trip System (RTS) Instrumentation,' and 3.3.2, 'Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) Instrumentation,"' and PG&E Letter DCL-03-1 11, "License Amendment Request 03-12, Revision to Technical Specifications 3.3.1,

'RTS Instrumentation,' and 3.3.2, 'ESFAS Instrumentation.'" If approved prior to approval of this LAR, new TS markups will be provided.

Document Control Desk PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 February 13, 2004 Page 2 As discussed in Enclosure 1, this amendment application is consistent with Industry/Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Standard TS (STS) Change Traveler 411, Revision 1, "Surveillance Test Interval Extensions for Components of the Reactor Protection System (WCAP-1 5376-P)," and Industry/TSTF STS Change Traveler 418, Revision 2, "RPS and ESFAS Test Times and Completion Times (WCAP-14333)."

PG&E is submitting this license amendment application in conjunction with an industry consortium of six plants as a result of a mutual agreement known as Strategic Teaming and Resource Sharing (STARS). The STARS group consists of the six plants operated by TXU Energy, AmerenUE, Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation, Pacific Gas and Electric Company, STP Nuclear Operating Company, and Arizona Public Service Company.

AmerenUE's Callaway Plant is the lead STARS plant for the proposed license amendment and other members of the STARS group can also be expected to submit a license amendment request similar to this one. The other license amendment requests will be submitted on a parallel basis within a short period of time of each other, with plant-specific information presented within brackets (i.e.,

within [ ] ) in Enclosure 1 (other than TS limiting condition of operation numbers which vary between STS of NUREG-0452 and NUREG-1431). All other enclosures are plant-specific in nature.

Enclosures 1 through 6 provide the evaluation, markup of TS, retyped TS, proposed TS bases changes, summary of regulatory commitments, and topical report applicability determination, respectively, in support of this amendment request. Enclosure 4 provides the marked-up TS Bases pages for information only. TS Bases changes will be implemented in accordance with TS 5.5.14, "Technical Specification Bases Control Program," at the time this amendment is implemented. Commitments based on the Regulatory Guide 1.177 Tier 2 evaluation are contained in Enclosure 5.

Westinghouse has determined that information contained in Enclosure 6 is proprietary, and is thereby supported by an affidavit signed by Westinghouse, the owner of the information. The affidavit sets forth the basis on which the information may be withheld from public disclosure by the Commission and addresses with specificity the considerations listed in paragraph (b)(4) of 10 CFR 2.790. Accordingly, it is respectfully requested that the information that is proprietary to Westinghouse be withheld from public disclosure in accordance with 10 CFR 2.790. This letter transmits proprietary (Enclosure 6A) and nonproprietary (Enclosure 6B) copies of Enclosure 6.

2 CAW-03-1 747 (1)

I am Acting Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Plant Licensing, in Nuclear Services, Westinghouse Electric Company LLC (Westinghouse), and as such, I have been specifically delegated the function of reviewing the proprietary information sought to be withheld from public disclosure in connection with nuclear power plant licensing and rule making proceedings, and am authorized to apply for its withholding on behalf of Westinghouse.

(2)

I am making this Affidavit in conformance with the provisions of 10 CFR Section 2.790 of the Commission's regulations and in conjunction with the Westinghouse "Application for Withholding" accompanying this Affidavit.

(3)

I have personal knowledge of the criteria and procedures utilized by Westinghouse in designating information as a trade secret, privileged or as confidential commercial or financial information.

(4)

Pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b)(4) of Section 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, the following is furnished for consideration by the Commission in determining whether the information sought to be withheld from public disclosure should be withheld.

(i)

The information sought to be withheld from public disclosure is owned and has been held in confidence by Westinghouse.

(ii)

The information is of a type customarily held in confidence by Westinghouse and not customarily disclosed to the public. Westinghouse has a rational basis for determining the types of information customarily held in confidence by it and, in that connection, utilizes a system to determine when and whether to hold certain types of information in confidence. The application of that system and the substance of that system constitutes Westinghouse policy and provides the rational basis required.

Under that system, information is held in confidence if it falls in one or more of several types, the release of which might result in the loss of an existing or potential competitive advantage, as follows:

(a)

The information reveals the distinguishing aspects of a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.) where prevention of its use by any of

3 CAW-03-1 747 Westinghouse's competitors without license from Westinghouse constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies.

(b)

It consists of supporting data, including test data, relative to a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.), the application of which data secures a competitive economic advantage, e.g., by optimization or improved marketability.

(c)

Its use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.

(d)

It reveals cost or price information, production capacities, budget levels, or commercial strategies of Westinghouse, its customers or suppliers.

(e)

It reveals aspects of past, present, or future Westinghouse or customer funded development plans and programs of potential commercial value to Westinghouse.

(f)

It contains patentable ideas, for which patent protection may be desirable.

There are sound policy reasons behind the Westinghouse system which include the following:

(a)

The use of such information by Westinghouse gives Westinghouse a competitive advantage over its competitors. It is, therefore, withheld from disclosure to protect the Westinghouse competitive position.

(b)

It is information that is marketable in many ways. The extent to which such information is available to competitors diminishes the Westinghouse ability to sell products and services involving the use of the information.

(c)

Use by our competitor would put Westinghouse at a competitive disadvantage by reducing his expenditure of resources at our expense.

4 CAW 1747 (d)

Each component of proprietary information pertinent to a particular competitive advantage is potentially as valuable as the total competitive advantage. If competitors acquire components of proprietary information, any one component may be the key to the entire puzzle, thereby depriving Westinghouse of a competitive advantage.

(e)

Unrestricted disclosure would jeopardize the position of prominence of Westinghouse in the world market, and thereby give a market advantage to the competition of those countries.

(f)

The Westinghouse capacity to invest corporate assets in research and development depends upon the success in obtaining and maintaining a competitive advantage.

(iii)

The information is being transmitted to the Commission in confidence and, under the provisions of 10 CFR Section 2.790, it is to be received in confidence by the Commission.

(iv)

The information sought to be protected is not available in public sources or available information has not been previously employed in the same original manner or method to the best of our knowledge and belief.

(v) The proprietary information sought to be withheld in this submittal is that which is appropriately marked in WCAP-15376 Implementation Guidelines Approach to Address the Conditions and Limitations in the NRC's Safety Evaluation on behalf of the Westinghouse Owners Group by Westinghouse, being transmitted by the Westinghouse Owners Group letter and Application for Withholding Proprietary Information from Public Disclosure to the Document Control Desk. The proprietary information as submitted for use by the Westinghouse Owners Group is applicable to other licensee submittals.

This information is part of that which will enable Westinghouse to:

5 CAW-03-1 747 (a) Provide risk-informed assessment of the RTS and ESFAS to extend the interval for surveillance testing.

(b) Provide licensing defense services.

Further this information has substantial commercial value as follows:

(a)

Westinghouse plans to sell the use of similar information to its customers for purposes of extending surveillance testing intervals (b)

Westinghouse can sell support and defense of extending surveillance testing intervals.

Public disclosure of this proprietary information is likely to cause substantial harm to the competitive position of Westinghouse because it would enhance the ability of competitors to provide similar assessments and licensing defense services for commercial power reactors without commensurate expenses. Also, public disclosure of the information would enable others to use the information to meet NRC requirements for licensing documentation without purchasing the right to use the information.

The development of the technology described in part by the information is the result of applying the results of many years of experience in an intensive Westinghouse effort and the expenditure of a considerable sum of money.

In order for competitors of Westinghouse to duplicate this information, similar technical programs would have to be performed and a significant manpower effort, having the requisite talent and experience, would have to be expended.

Further the deponent sayeth not.

PROPRIETARY INFORMATION NOTICE Transmitted herewith are proprietary and/or non-proprietary versions of documents furnished to the NRC in connection with requests for generic and/or plant-specific review and approval.

In order to conform to the requirements of 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations concerning the protection of proprietary information so submitted to the NRC, the information which is proprietary in the proprietary versions is contained within brackets, and where the proprietary information has been deleted in the non-proprietary versions, only the brackets remain (the information that was contained within the brackets in the proprietary versions having been deleted). The justification for claiming the information so designated as proprietary is indicated in both versions by means of lower case letters (a) through (f) located as a superscript immediately following the brackets enclosing each item of information being identified as proprietary or in the margin opposite such information. These lower case letters refer to the types of information Westinghouse customarily holds in confidence identified in Sections (4)(ii)(a) through (4)(ii)(f) of the affidavit accompanying this transmittal pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790(b)(1).

COPYRIGHT NOTICE The reports transmitted herewith each bear a Westinghouse copyright notice. The NRC is permitted to make the number of copies of the information contained in these reports which are necessary for its internal use in connection with generic and plant-specific reviews and approvals as well as the issuance, denial, amendment, transfer, renewal, modification, suspension, revocation, or violation of a license, permit, order, or regulation subject to the requirements of 10CFR 2.790 regarding restrictions on public disclosure to the extent such information has been identified as proprietary by Westinghouse, copyright protection notwithstanding. With respect to the non-proprietary versions of these reports, the NRC is permitted to make the number of copies beyond those necessary for its internal use which are necessary in order to have one copy available for public viewing in the appropriate docket files in the public document room in Washington, DC and in local public document rooms as may be required by NRC regulations if the number of copies submitted is insufficient for this purpose. Copies made by the NRC must include the copyright notice in all instances and the proprietary notice if the original was identified as proprietary.

3.0

Background

Over the past several years the Westinghouse Owners Group (WOG) completed a series of topical reports that document the relaxation of RTS and ESFAS test times, Completion Times (CTs), and surveillance test intervals (STIs) for the protection system instrumentation. The relaxations were justified by an analysis of the protection system reliability and the impact of that reliability on the overall plant risk.

The original study was identified by the acronym TOP (taken from Technical Specification Optimization Program) as documented in the WCAP-1 0271 -P-A series of reports. Those changes were implemented at [DCPP via License Amendment (LA) 36/35 for WCAP 10271, LA 61/60 for supplements 1 and 2 to WCAP-10271, and LA 84/83 for the Eagle 21 upgrade, References 5, 6, and 7, respectively. When reviewing risk metric results, DCPP's current licensing basis is that of a "TOP" plant.]

Fault tree models of the protection system instrumentation were used to calculate the unavailability sensitivity to test and maintenance time allowances and frequencies. The changes in RTS and ESFAS unavailability were then used in a risk model to predict changes in risk as the test and maintenance time allowances and frequencies were relaxed. Differences in analysis methods from the TOP WCAP-1 0271-P-A (hereafter referred to as WCAP-1 0271) series of reports are discussed in Section 7.1 of WCAP-14333-P-A Revision 1 and in Section 8.3.5 of WCAP-15376-P-A Revision 1.

5 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 The approach used in WCAP-14333-P-A Revision 1 (hereafter referred to as WCAP-14333) and WCAP-15376-P-A Revision 1 (hereafter referred to as WCAP-1 5376) is consistent with the approach established in the TOP program.

This includes the fault tree models, signals, component reliability database, and most of the test and maintenance assumptions. The methodology used in the WCAP-1 0271 studies was applied to a representative set of RTS and ESFAS functions using the Vogtle probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) model and revised unavailability data. The work documented in WCAP-14333 uses a different common cause failure modeling approach for analog channels and includes more realistic assumptions related to the component unavailability due to maintenance activities based on a survey of WOG plants. Operator actions to either manually trip the reactor or initiate safety injection are also modeled in WCAP-14333. In addition, credit for auxiliary feedwater pump start from the anticipated transient without scram (ATWS) mitigating system actuation circuitry (AMSAC) was taken. More discussion of these differences is contained in Sections 7 and 8 of WCAP-14333. The relaxations that are justified in WCAP-14333 are summarized below:

WCAP-14333 was submitted for NRC review with WOG Letter OG-95-51 dated June 20, 1995. The NRC issued a Safety Evaluation on July 15, 1998, approving WCAP-14333. These improvements will allow additional time to perform maintenance and test activities, enhance safety, provide additional operational flexibility, and reduce the potential for forced outages related to compliance with the RTS and ESFAS instrumentation TS. Industry information has shown that a significant number of trips that have occurred are related to instrumentation test and maintenance activities, indicating that these activities should be completed with caution and sufficient time should be available to complete these activities in an orderly and effective manner.

Southern Nuclear Operating Company submitted a License Amendment Request (LAR) on October 13, 1999, for the Vogtle Units 1 and 2 to adopt the relaxations that were generically approved in WCAP-14333. As a result of the NRC review of this application, incremental conditional large early release probability (ICLERP) values were developed generically for all WOG plants (see Reference 10 for the Vogtle 6

PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 amendment correspondence). Amendments 116 and 94 were issued for Vogtle approving the changes proposed in WCAP-14333.

WOG Letter OG-00-112, dated November 8, 2000, transmitted WCAP-1 5376, Revision 0 to the NRC for review and approval. WCAP-15376 expanded upon the groundwork laid by WCAP-14333, but used updated component failure probability data (WCAP-15376 Section 8.2) and made some changes to the fault tree models (WCAP-15376 Section 8.3). Using these modifications, the changes previously approved in WCAP-14333 were quantified as the base case for WCAP-1 5376.

Section 8.4 of WCAP-1 5376 provides the risk metrics for this change and demonstrates that the acceptance criteria of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.174 and RG 1.177 are satisfied.

WCAP-1 5376 provides the technical justification for the following RTS Instrumentation (TS 3.3.1), ESFAS Instrumentation (TS 3.3.2), [and Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation (TS 3.3.6)] TS changes:

The AMSAC system is included in [DCPP's Maintenance Rule Program with an assigned reliability performance criterion of less than two maintenance preventable functional failures in 24 months. AMSAC has low risk achievement worth (1.36) and low risk reduction worth (1.0003). AMSAC is functionally tested every 24 months and the analog channel inputs are calibrated quarterly. DCPP's AMSAC design is discussed in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report Section 7.6.1.4.]

4.0 Technical Analysis A survey was provided to all WOG members to determine their needs with respect to instrumentation test times, maintenance times, and maintenance frequencies, in 7

PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 addition to information regarding plant operation such as reactor trip and spurious safety injection events. From this information the TS changes that were evaluated were identified. The PRA, benefits of the program and conclusions, and the relationship of the TS changes to the analyses are discussed in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-1 5376.

In order to model the CTs in the fault trees to determine the impact of the changes on signal unavailabilities, several parameters were specified for component test and maintenance unavailabilities. These are the test frequencies and durations discussed in Section 5.1 of WCAP-14333, the maintenance frequencies and durations discussed in Section 5.2 of WCAP-14333, and the test and maintenance activities discussed in Section 7.2 of WCAP-15376.

The changes being considered in this analysis were evaluated consistent with the three-tiered approach currently defined in RG 1.177. The first tier addresses PRA insights and includes the risk analyses and sensitivity analyses to support the completion time and bypass test time changes. The second tier addresses avoidance of risk-significant plant configurations. The third tier addresses risk-informed plant configuration control and management.

Tier 1, PRA Capability and Insights WCAP-14333 WCAP-14333 originally provided only the impact of the requested changes on core damage frequency (ACDF) for two-out-of-four (2/4) and two-out-of-three (2/3) actuation logic. In response to an NRC request for additional information (RAI) letter, RAI Questions 11 and 13 in WOG Letter OG-96-1 10 (Reference 9), the WOG provided the impact of the requested changes on incremental conditional core damage probability (ICCDP) for various components in maintenance and the change in large early release frequency (ALERF) for 2/4 and 2/3 actuation logic.

Also, in response to an NRC RAI during the review of Southern Nuclear's amendment request implementing these changes for the Vogtle Units 1 and 2, ICLERPs for various components in maintenance were provided.

The impact of the proposed changes on CDF and LERF are provided in TSTF-418, Revision 2, Table 1.3 (which presents the same information as that contained in Table 8.4 of WCAP-14333) and Table 1.4 (which presents the same information as that contained in the response to RAI Question 13 in OG-96-1 10),

respectively. The CDF and LERF values are provided for pre-TOP, TOP, and the WCAP-14333 proposed changes. The ACDF and ALERF values are also provided referenced to pre-TOP and TOP conditions. The results of a sensitivity analysis are also provided that credit a 0.5 per year reduction in reactor trip frequency due to fewer analog channel tests (trip reduction originally postulated for the WCAP-1 0271 channel operational test interval increase from monthly to quarterly). The ACDF and 8

PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 ALERF values are provided for both 2/4 and 2/3 logic. The ICCDP and ICLERP values are provided in Table 1.5 of TSTF-418, Revision 2 (from RAI Question 11 in OG-96-110 and from Reference 10). The ICCDP and ICLERP values are provided only for 2/3 logic, but the results envelop the 2/4 logic.

WCAP-1 5376 Risk analysis results for WCAP-1 5376 are discussed in Section 8.4 of that topical report. Comparisons are presented in Tables 8.29 (ACDF) and 8.32 (ALERF) to a base case which represents the changes previously approved under WCAP-14333.

In response to an NRC RAI letter, RAI Questions 4 and 11 in WOG Letter OG-02-002 (Reference 11), the WOG provided the impact of the requested Completion Time change (24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> CT plus 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to reach MODE 3, for a total of 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />) on ICCDP and ICLERP for a RTB in preventive maintenance (PM) or in corrective maintenance (CM), with the associated logic train inoperable, for the bounding 2/3 logic. Since these incremental risk metrics are met for a 30-hour maintenance time, they will also be met for a 4-hour bypass test time.

The ICCDP and ICLERP values are situational in nature, depending on the particular component under test or maintenance. The acceptance criteria for these incremental risk metrics are satisfied. The ACDF and ALERF values are cumulative from the current licensing basis (WCAP-10271) to the proposed state (WCAP-15376). The ALERF acceptance criterion is satisfied. From the above table, the ACDF acceptance criterion going from WCAP-1 0271 to WCAP-1 5376 is slightly exceeded. To address this, Section 8.4.4 and Table 8.33 of WCAP-15376 9

PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 discuss the cumulative ACDF from pre-TOP to WCAP-1 5376 conditions using the sensitivity analysis values from Table 8.4 of WCAP-14333 for 2/4 logic and 2/3 logic combined with the ACDF values from Table 8.29 of WCAP-1 5376 for 2/4 and 2/3 logic. The cumulative ACDF for the 2/4 logic in Table 8.33 of WCAP-1 5376 is 5.7E-07 per year meeting the ACDF acceptance criterion. The cumulative ACDF for the 2/3 logic in Table 8.33 of WCAP-1 5376 is 1.1 E-06 per year slightly exceeding the ACDF acceptance criterion. However, that ACDF of 1.1 E-06 per year includes the cumulative impact of changing from the pre-TOP to WCAP-1 5376 conditions.

Pre-TOP conditions are given in Table 1.1 of WCAP-15376. [Since DCPP is changing only from the TOP to WCAP-15376 conditions, the ACDF acceptance criterion is satisfied since DCPP is currently licensed with quarterly COTs and 6-hour Completion Times, (i.e., PG&E is requesting less of a delta than the pre-TOP to WCAP-1 5376 change).] Another supplemental consideration supporting compliance with the ACDF acceptance criterion is the shutdown risk avoided with extended CTs discussed in Section 8.4 of WCAP-14333 and Section 8.7 of WCAP-1 5376.

Tier 2, Avoidance of Risk-Significant Plant Configurations Tier 2 requires an examination of the need to impose additional restrictions when operating under the proposed CTs in order to avoid risk-significant equipment outage configurations. Therefore, the resulting Tier 2 restrictions to be imposed for the two topical reports are very similar.

WCAP-14333 Consistent with the guidance in Regulatory Position C.2.3 in RG 1.177, Westinghouse performed an evaluation of equipment according to its contribution to plant risk while the equipment covered by the proposed CT changes is out of service for test or maintenance. This evaluation was documented in the response to RAI Question 18 in Westinghouse Letter OG-96-110 (Reference 9). Westinghouse performed an importance analysis for 25 top events in the event trees for each of the test or maintenance configurations associated with the proposed TS changes.

This analysis determined the system importances for plant configurations with no ongoing test and maintenance activities (all components available) and for plant configurations with ongoing test or maintenance activities individually on the analog channels, logic trains, master relays, and slave relays. With test or maintenance activities in progress, it is assumed that the corresponding component or train will be unavailable. The system importances for these configurations are provided in Table Q18.1 of the response to RAI Question 18. The importances were compared between the cases with individual components unavailable and all components available. For the cases of the analog channels, master relays, and slave relays, the importance rankings among the systems involved did not change. For the case of an SSPS logic train in maintenance, several systems had a relatively significant increase in their importance ranking. Those systems were auxiliary feedwater 10 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 (AFW), reactor trip, high pressure injection, low pressure injection, and containment cooling.

In addition, as discussed previously, the response to RAI Question 11 in Reference 9 documented ICCDP values for the various test and maintenance configurations that the plant may enter for the subject CT extensions. This information is provided in Table Q11.1 of the response to RAI Question 11. The same conclusion is drawn from the information presented on Table Q11.1 (i.e., the only configuration that significantly impacts core damage frequency is that with a logic train inoperable).

Based on the information provided in RAI response Tables Q1.1 and Q18.1, it is concluded that the only plant configuration with an appreciable impact on CDF or a significant impact on the relative importance of other systems is the configuration with one logic train inoperable. Therefore, the Tier 2 limitations are appropriate only when a logic cabinet is out of service. There are no Tier 2 limitations when a slave relay, master relay, or analog channel is out of service.

Consistent with the WCAP-14333 Safety Evaluation (SE) requirement to include Tier 2 insights into the decision-making process before taking equipment out of service, restrictions on concurrent removal of certain equipment when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance will be included. Note that these restrictions do not apply when a logic train is being tested under the 4-hour bypass Note of TS 3.3.1 Condition Q, TS 3.3.2 Condition C, or TS 3.3.2 Condition G. Entry into these Conditions is not a typical, preplanned evolution during power operation, other than for surveillance testing. Since these Conditions are typically entered due to equipment failure, it follows that some of the following Tier 2 restrictions may not be met at the time of Condition entry. If this situation were to occur during the extended 24-hour CT, the Tier 3 Configuration Risk Management Program discussed below will assess the emergent condition and direct activities to restore the inoperable logic train and exit the Condition or fully implement the Tier 2 restrictions, as appropriate from a risk management perspective. The following restrictions will be put in place (see also Enclosure 5):

  • To preserve ATWS mitigation capability, activities that degrade the availability of the AFW system, reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure relief system (pressurizer power operated relief valves (PORVs) and safety valves),

AMSAC, or turbine trip should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.

  • To preserve loss of coolant accident mitigation capability, one complete emergency core cooling system train that can be actuated automatically must be maintained when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.

11 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013

  • To preserve reactor trip and safeguards actuation capability, activities that cause master relays or slave relays in the available train to be unavailable and activities that cause analog channels to be unavailable should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance.
  • Activities on electrical systems (e.g., AC and DC power) and cooling systems (e.g., essential service water and component cooling water) that support the systems or functions listed in the first three bullets should not be scheduled when a logic train is inoperable for maintenance. That is, one complete train of a function that supports a complete train of a function noted above must be available.

Note that the containment cooling system was shown to have a relatively significant increase in importance ranking in Table Q18.1 when a logic train is inoperable.

However, in the [DCPP] PRA, containment cooling has negligible impact on core damage or large early release frequencies. Therefore, consistent with Enclosure 6 of the October 13, 1999, Vogtle amendment request, as included in Reference 10, increasing the availability of the containment cooling system will not offset or counter the inoperable logic train and no Tier 2 limitations are appropriate for this system.

WCAP-1 5376 Recommended Tier 2 restrictions for WCAP-1 5376 are provided in Section 8.5 of that topical report when a RTB train is inoperable for maintenance. Note that these restrictions do not apply when a RTB train is being tested under the 4-hour bypass note for TS 3.3.1 Condition R. Entry into this Condition is not a typical, pre-planned evolution during power operation, other than for surveillance testing. Since this Condition is typically entered due to equipment failure, it follows that some of the following Tier 2 restrictions may not be met at the time of Condition entry. If this situation were to occur during the extended 24-hour CT, the Tier 3 Configuration Risk Management Program discussed below will assess the emergent condition and direct activities to restore the inoperable RTB train and exit the Condition or fully implement the Tier 2 restrictions as appropriate from a risk management perspective. The following restrictions will be put in place (see also Enclosure 5):

The probability of failing to trip the reactor on demand will increase when a RTB train is removed from service; therefore, systems designed for mitigating an ATWS event should be maintained available. RCS pressure relief (pressurizer PORVs and safety valves), AFW flow (for RCS heat removal),

AMSAC, and turbine trip are important to alternate ATWS mitigation.

Therefore, activities that degrade the availability of the AFW system, RCS pressure relief system (pressurizer PORVs and safety valves), AMSAC, or turbine trip should not be scheduled when a RTB train is inoperable for maintenance.

12 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 Due to the increased dependence on the available reactor trip train when one logic train or one RTB train is inoperable for maintenance, activities that degrade other components of the RTS, including master relays or slave relays, and activities that cause analog channels to be unavailable, should not be scheduled when a RTB train is inoperable for maintenance.

  • Activities on electrical systems (e.g., AC and DC power) and cooling systems (e.g., essential service water) that support the systems or functions listed in the first two bullets should not be scheduled when a RTB train is inoperable for maintenance. That is, one complete train of a function that supports a complete train of a function noted above must be available.

Tier 3, Risk-informed Configuration Risk Management Tier 3 requires a proceduralized process to assess the risk associated with both planned and unplanned work activities. The objective of the third tier is to ensure that the risk impact of out-of-service (OOS) equipment is evaluated prior to performing any maintenance activity. As stated in Section 2.3 of RG 1.177, "a viable program would be one that is able to uncover risk-significant plant equipment outage configurations in a timely manner during normal plant operation." The third-tier requirement is an extension of the second-tier requirement, but addresses the limitation of not being able to identify all possible risk-significant plant configurations

'in the second-tier evaluation. Programs and procedures are in place at [DCPP]

which serve to address this objective.

[DCPP has developed a process for online risk assessment and management using AD7.DC6, "On-Line Maintenance Risk Management." This procedure allows for appropriate evaluation of the risk impact of equipment out of service while the plant is on-line prior to performing any maintenance activity or following an equipment failure or other internal or external event that impacts risk. This program provides guidance for managing plant trip risk and performing probabilistic, and safety function risk assessment as required by 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) of the Maintenance Rule. The procedure addresses risk management practices in the maintenance planning phase and maintenance execution phase (real time) for Modes 1 through

4. Appropriate consideration is given to equipment unavailability, operational activities such as testing, and weather conditions.

In general, risk from performing maintenance on-line is minimized by:

  • Performing only those preventative and corrective maintenance items on-line required to maintain the reliability of structures, systems or components (SSC).

13 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013

  • Minimizing cumulative unavailability of safety-related and risk significant SSCs by limiting the number of at-power maintenance outage windows per cycle per train/component.
  • Minimizing the total number of SSCs OOS at the same time.

Minimizing the risk of initiating plant transients (trips) that could challenge safety systems by implementing compensatory measures.

  • Avoiding higher risk combinations of OOS SSCs using PRA insights.

Maintaining defense-in-depth by avoiding combinations of OOS SSCs that are related to similar safety functions or that affect multiple safety functions.

  • Scheduling in train/bus windows to avoid removing equipment from different trains simultaneously.

In general, risk is managed by:

Evaluating plant trip risk activities or conditions and mitigating them by taking appropriate compensatory measures and/or ensuring defense-in-depth of safety systems that are challenged by a plant trip.

Evaluating and controlling risk based on probabilistic and key safety function defense-in-depth evaluations.

Implementing compensatory measures and requirements for management authorization or notification for certain "high-risk" configurations.

Actions are taken and appropriate attention is given to configurations and situations commensurate with the level of risk as evaluated using AD7.DC6. This occurs both during the planning and real time (execution) phases.

For planned maintenance activities, an assessment of the overall risk of the activity on plant safety is performed and documented per AD7.DC6 prior to scheduled work.

Consideration is given to plant and external conditions, the number of activities being performed concurrently, the potential for plant trips, and the availability and

'health" of redundant trains.

Risk is evaluated, managed and documented for all activities or conditions based on the current plant state:

  • Before any planned or emergent maintenance is to be performed.

14 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013

  • As soon as possible when an emergent plant condition is discovered.

As soon as possible when an external or internal event or condition is recognized.]

SE Conditions NRC approval of WCAP-14333 was subject to the following conditions requiring plant-specific information:

1.

Confirm the applicability of the WCAP-14333 analyses for the plant.

2.

Address the Tier 2 and Tier 3 analyses including the Configuration Risk Management Program insights and confirm that these insights are incorporated into the decision making process before taking equipment out of service.

NRC approval of WCAP-15376 was subject to the following conditions requiring plant-specific information:

1.

Confirm the applicability of the topical report to the plant and perform a plant-specific assessment of containment failures and address any design or performance differences that may affect the proposed changes.

2.

Address the Tier 2 and Tier 3 analyses including risk significant configuration insights and confirm that these insights are incorporated into the plant-specific configuration risk management program.

3.

The risk impact of concurrent testing of one logic cabinet and associated reactor trip breaker needs to be evaluated on a plant-specific basis to ensure conformance with the WCAP-15376-P, Rev. 0 evaluation, and RGs 1.174 and 1.177.

4.

To ensure consistency with the reference plant, the model assumptions for human reliability in WCAP-15376-P, Rev. 0 should be confirmed to be applicable to the plant-specific configuration.

5.

For future digital upgrades with increased scope, integration and architectural differences beyond that of Eagle 21, the staff finds the generic applicability of WCAP-15376-P, Rev. 0 to future digital systems not clear and should be considered on a plant-specific basis.

An additional commitment from the response to NRC RAI Question 18 (Reference 12) requires that each plant will review their setpoint calculation 15 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 methodology to ascertain the impact of extending the COT Surveillance Frequency from 92 days to 184 days.

WCAP-1 4333 and WCAP-1 5376 SE Condition 1, Topical Report ApplicabilitV Determination In order to address SE Condition 1 for both WCAPs, Westinghouse issued implementation guidelines for licensees to confirm the analyses are applicable to their plant. See Enclosure 6.

WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 SE Condition 2 SE Condition 2 for both topical reports is addressed above under the Tier 2 and Tier 3 discussions.

WCAP-15376 SE Condition 3 The response to NRC RAI Question 4 in Reference 11 provided the ICCDP for this configuration (both the logic train and associated RTB train out of service) for preventive maintenance for a total time of 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />, which is comprised of a CT of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> plus 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to reach Mode 3.

Since this ICCDP value is based on the logic train and reactor trip breaker being out of service for 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> at the same time, bypassing one logic train and associated RTB train for 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for testing will also meet the RG 1.177 ICCDP guideline.

SE Condition 3 is addressed by demonstrating that the WCAP-15376 analysis is applicable. Demonstrating the applicability of the WCAP-1 5376 analysis is discussed in detail in the above response to SE Condition 1 (see Enclosure 6).

WCAP-15376 SE Condition 4 See Enclosure 6.

WCAP-15376 SE Condition 5 This condition does not apply to [DCPP] at this time. Future digital upgrades will require separate evaluation.

WCAP-15376 RAI Question 18 Commitment The response to this RAI in Reference 12 noted that plant-specific RTS and ESFAS setpoint uncertainty calculations and assumptions, including instrument drift, will be 16 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 reviewed to determine the impact of extending the Surveillance Frequency of the COT from 92 days to 184 days.

The rack drift term used in the [DCPP AV setpoint analysis is the generic 1 percent span value found in WCAP-1 1082 Revision 5. Subsequent to the issue of this WCAP, DCPP performed a detailed statistical-based drift study of all NIS bistables.

This study utilized a large population of As Left - As Found (AF) data collected from COTs and channel calibrations over a wide variety of surveillance intervals. The results of this study concluded that there is no statistically significant correlation between the magnitude of drift and the length of surveillance interval. A review of maintenance history also confirms that except for extremely rare occasions, AF data has not exceeded acceptable limits. DCPP therefore concludes that increasing the NIS COT period from 92 days to 184 days will have no impact on any NIS setpoint calculation or assumption.

As part of the DCPP 24-Month Fuel Cycle program, Westinghouse evaluated the continued performance of the Eagle 21 process racks, providing assurance that the Eagle 21 process racks were performing as designed and capable of maintaining calibration tolerances as assumed in the setpoint study. Westinghouse reviewed the proposed surveillance extensions and determined that the change would not impact the results of the analysis. Specifically, the Eagle 21 cards are not expected to drift when in a design-functional condition, and therefore would not be impacted by an extended surveillance frequency. A design-functional condition for the Eagle 21 cards is defined as the ability to carry out the self-check and self-calibration functions. Thus an operable Eagle 21 card is one that is found within the basic calibration accuracy defined for that type of card. An inoperable card is one that is unable to carry out the self-calibration function within the defined calibration accuracy, which is a condition that is annunciated by the Eagle 21 protection system. As a result of the review of the DCPP Eagle 21 process racks, it is Westinghouse and PG&E's expectation that the magnitude of drift experienced by those process rack cards would be minimal over a 184-day surveillance interval. A more definitive indication is the number of card failures in a fuel cycle. A review of Eagle 21 card failures at DCPP over the last 5 years shows that the number of card failures is minimal and within industry averages. And therefore it can be stated that the DCPP Eagle 21 process rack cards are performing as designed and that a COT surveillance interval of'1 84 days is justified. Westinghouse and PG&E believe this conclusion is consistent with the calculation utilized as a basis for the uncertainty calculations documented in Section 4.3 of WCAP-11082 Revisions 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Therefore, a change to the COT Frequency will have no impact on the setpoint study results.]

17 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 Plant-Specific Evaluations for Functions not Evaluated Generically

[Insert 7 of TSTF-411 Revision 1 and Insert 14 of TSTF-418 Revision 2 note that in order to apply TS relaxations to plant-specific functions not evaluated generically, licensees must submit plant-specific evaluations for NRC review and approval. RTS Function 14.b and ESFAS Function 6.d.(2), Steam Generator Water Level - Low Low Trip Time Delay (TTD) were not included in the generic analyses approved in WCAP-10271 (as supplemented), WCAP-14333, or WCAP-15376.

Several utilities completed plant-specific evaluations to demonstrate that the changes in WCAP-1 0271 and its supplements are applicable to functions not generically evaluated. The analyses performed in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-1 5376 covered representative RTS and ESFAS trip functions, a subset of the comprehensive set of trip functions included in WCAP-10271 and its supplements.

Therefore, the changes approved in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-1 5376 are also applicable to those plant-specific functions with NRC-approved evaluations performed to apply the changes in WCAP-10271 and its supplements. As recognized in Section 11.0 of both WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376, as well as in NRC-approved traveler TSTF-418 Revision 2, additional plant-specific evaluations should not be required.

DCPP performed an evaluation of Eagle 21 functions, which includes the TTD function, which was not analyzed generically. The NRC approved the plant-specific evaluation in DCPP LAs 84/83 dated October 7, 1993, (Reference 7). As such, additional evaluations should not be required. Pertinent excerpts from the original LAR (Reference 8) leading to the NRC issuance of DCPP LA 84/83 are reprinted below. This evaluation has already been reviewed and approved by the NRC for the WCAP-10271 changes and its applicability to the changes presented in WCAP-14333 and WCAP-15376 has been established as discussed above.

PG&E recognizes that the WCAP-1 0271 evaluations were based on analog process protection systems. PG&E has determined that replacement of the Westinghouse 7100 analog process protection equipment with Eagle 21 digital process protection equipment, which is at least as reliable as the analog equipment, does not invalidate the conclusions drawn in WCAP-10271 and its supplements.

From the results of the reliability/availability assessment of the Eagle 21 and equivalent process protection systems, it has been determined that the Eagle 21 digital system availability is equivalent to the analog system availability even when no credit is taken for the fail-safe design principles, redundancy, automatic surveillance testing, self-calibration, and self-diagnostic features of the Eagle 21 process protection system. If full credit were to be given to the capabilities that exist for the Eagle 21, such as the self-diagnostic features including the electrically programmable read-only 18 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 memory checksums, random access memory checks, math coprocessor checks, and loop cycle time checks, they would further improve system availability. Furthermore, if credit were to be given to the redundancy, automatic surveillance testing, and self-calibration capabilities, there would be an additional improvement in system availability. Items such as decreasing the impact on system accuracies because of drifting signal loops being corrected by the Eagle 21 self-calibration feature or decreasing system downtime because of the automatic surveillance/self-diagnostic features will also have a positive impact on system availability. The man-machine interface (MMI) provided with Eagle 21 will significantly reduce the amount of technician time required for maintenance and troubleshooting of the system.

By using the MMI, instrument technician and engineering time needed to perform and review the quarterly functional tests will be significantly reduced over that required for the present equipment.

The results of the availability assessment of the Eagle 21 and the equivalent analog process protection system demonstrate that the Eagle 21 digital system is at least as reliable as the present analog technologies.

If a more detailed analysis were to be performed incorporating the automatic surveillance test, redundancy, and self-test, self-calibration, and self-diagnostics features of the Eagle 21 system, predicted system availability would be further improved.

With the incorporation of the self-test, self-calibration, self-diagnostic, and automatic surveillance testing features, operator interface with the system is minimized, resulting in decreased system downtime and improved system accuracy.

Actual system mean time between failures (MTBFs) for a digital system far exceeds the expected MTBFs derived from system design data.

Deviations from approved TSTF-411 Revision I and TSTF-418 Revision 2

[The changes in TSTF-418 Revision 2 regarding the TS 3.3.1 Condition for RTBs are superseded by the changes in TSTF-411 Revision 1. Option 3 of Insert 6 in TSTF-411 Revision 1 is followed.

19 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 TS 3.3.1 Condition D is restructured to avoid confusion as to when a flux map for quadrant power tilt ratio (QPTR) is required. The version of Condition D approved in TSTF-418, Revision 2, could incorrectly lead an operator to believe that he could pursue just the option of Required Actions D.1.1 and D.1.2, potentially overlooking the requirement to do a flux map for QPTR within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> per the Note above SR 3.2.4.2. In addition, Required Actions with shorter CTs (12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />) are supposed to appear before Required Actions with longer CTs (72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />) in the D.2.1 and D.2.2 option. The revised Condition D captures the approved changes (bypass time of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, maintenance time before tripping of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />), while eliminating the QPTR and formatting confusions.

The changes to TS 3.3.1 Condition X and TS 3.3.2 Condition M are based on the plant-specific evaluation discussed above.

No changes are made regarding the RCP Breaker Position RTS trip function {RTS Function 111 and Residual Heat Removal Pump Trip on Refueling Water Storage Tank Level-low {ESFAS Function 7} since no plant-specific evaluation has been performed and these functions are not covered by the WCAPs. A new TS 3.3.1 condition N is created to retain the requirements from TS 3.3.1 condition M for RCP Breaker Position RTS trip function.

TSTF-418, Revision 2, Inserts 1, 2, and 3 were not included in the DCPP TS markups for the following conditions:

  • TS 3.3.1 Condition D - Function 2.a has no bypass capability.
  • TS 3.3.1 Condition E - The wording is effectively already included for Functions 7 and 8.b. Functions 2.b, 3.a, and 3.b have no bypass capability.

Function 14.a is a 2/3 coincidence for trip and bypassing the inoperable channel and another channel would remove the protection capabilities of this function.

  • TS 3.3.1 Condition M -The wording is effectively already included for 8.a.

Function 9 and 10 are a 2/3 coincidence for trip and bypassing the inoperable channel and another channel would remove the protection capabilities of this function. Functions 12 and 13 have no bypass capability. As stated above, Function 11 is moved to new condition N. Function 11 is a 1/1 coincidence reactor trip above P-7.

  • TS 3.3.1 Condition 0 - Function 16.a has no bypass capability.
  • TS 3.3.1 Condition R - As stated above, condition for RTBs are superseded by the changes in TSTF-411 Revision 1. TSTF-411 Revision 1 does not include Insert 3.

The TSTF-41 1, Revision 1 changes to actuation logic and master relays associated with the Control Room Ventilation System Actuation Instrumentation (TS 3.3.7) are not processed through the SSPS. Therefore, the TSTF-411 Revision 1 changes to STS 3.3.7 do not apply to DCPP's TS.]

5.0 Regulatory Analysis This section addresses the standards of 10 CFR 50.92 as well as the applicable regulatory requirements and acceptance criteria.

5.1 No Significant Hazards Consideration (NSHC)

The proposed amendment would revise Technical Specification (TS) 3.3.1, Reactor Trip System (RTS) Instrumentation, TS 3.3.2, Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) Instrumentation, and TS 3.3.6, Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation, to adopt the Completion Times (CTs), test bypass times, and Surveillance Frequency changes approved by NRC in WCAP-14333-P-A, Revision 1, October 1998 and WCAP-15376-P-A, Revision 1, March 2003. This amendment application is consistent with NRC-approved travelers TSTF-41 1 Revision 1, "Surveillance Test Interval Extensions for Components of the Reactor Protection System 21 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 (WCAP-15376-P)," and TSTF-418 Revision 2, "RPS and ESFAS Test Times and Completion Times (WCAP-14333)." The proposed changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration based on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c) as discussed below:

(1) Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No Overall protection system performance will remain within the bounds of the previously performed accident analyses since no hardware changes are proposed. The same RTS and ESFAS instrumentation will continue to be used. The protection systems will continue to function in a manner consistent with the plant design basis. These changes to the TS do not result in a condition where the design, material, and construction standards that were applicable prior to the change are altered.

The proposed changes will not modify any system interface. The proposed changes will not affect the probability of any event initiators. There will be no degradation in the performance of or an increase in the number of challenges imposed on safety-related equipment assumed to function during an accident situation. There will be no change to normal plant operating parameters or accident mitigation performance. The proposed changes will not alter any assumptions or change any mitigation actions in the radiological consequence evaluations in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report.

The determination that the results of the proposed changes are acceptable was established in the NRC Safety Evaluations prepared for WCAP-14333-P-A, Revision 1, (issued by letter dated July 15, 1998) and for WCAP-1 5376-P-A, Revision 1, (issued by letter dated December 20, 2002). Implementation of the proposed changes will result in an insignificant risk impact. Applicability of these conclusions has been verified through plant-specific reviews and implementation of the generic analysis results in accordance with the respective NRC Safety Evaluation conditions.

The proposed changes to the CTs, test bypass times, and Surveillance Frequencies reduce the potential for inadvertent reactor trips and spurious

'engineered safeguard features actuations, and therefore do not increase the probability of any accident previously evaluated. The proposed changes do not change the response of the plant to any accidents and have an insignificant impact on the reliability of the RTS and ESFAS signals. The RTS and ESFAS will remain highly reliable and the proposed changes will not result in a significant increase in the risk of plant operation. This is 22 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 demonstrated by showing that the impact on plant safety as measured by the increase in core damage frequency (CDF) is less than 1.OE-06 per year and the increase in large early release frequency (LERF) is less than 1.OE-07 per year. In addition, for the CT changes, the incremental conditional core damage probabilities (ICCDP) and incremental conditional large early release probabilities (ICLERP) are less than 5.OE-07 and 5.OE-08, respectively. These changes meet the acceptance criteria in Regulatory Guides (RGs) 1.174 and 1.177. Therefore, since the RTS and ESFAS will continue to perform their functions with high reliability as originally assumed, and the increase in risk as measured by ACDF, ALERF, ICCDP, ICLERP risk metrics is within the acceptance criteria of existing regulatory guidance, there will not be a significant increase in the consequences of any accidents.

The proposed changes do not adversely affect accident initiators or precursors nor alter the design assumptions, conditions, or configuration of the facility or the manner in which the plant is operated and maintained.

The proposed changes do not alter or prevent the ability of structures, systems, and components from performing their intended function to mitigate the consequences of an initiating event within the assumed acceptance limits. The proposed changes do not affect the source term, containment isolation, or radiological release assumptions used in evaluating the radiological consequences of any accident previously evaluated. The proposed changes are consistent with safety analysis assumptions and resultant consequences.

Therefore, this change does not increase the probability or consequences of any accident previously evaluated.

(2)

Do the proposed changes create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No There are no hardware changes nor are there any changes in the method by which any safety-related plant system performs its safety function. The proposed changes will not affect the normal method of plant operation. No performance requirements will be affected or eliminated. The proposed changes will not result in physical alteration to any plant system nor will there be any change in the method by which any safety-related plant system performs its safety function. There will be no setpoint changes or changes to accident analysis assumptions.

No new accident scenarios, transient precursors, failure mechanisms, or limiting single failures are introduced as a result of these changes. There 23 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 will be no adverse effect or challenges imposed on any safety-related system as a result of these changes.

Therefore, the proposed changes do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.

(3) Do the proposed changes involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No The proposed changes do not affect the acceptance criteria for any analyzed event nor is there a change to any Safety Analysis Limit. There will be no effect on the manner in which safety limits, limiting safety system settings, or limiting conditions for operation are determined nor will there be any effect on those plant systems necessary to assure the accomplishment of protection functions. There will be no impact on the overpower limit, departure from nucleate boiling limits, local power peaking factor (FQ), hot channel factor (FAH), loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) peak cladding temperature, peak local power density, or any other margin of safety. The radiological dose consequence acceptance criteria listed in the Standard Review Plan will continue to be met.

Redundant RTS and ESFAS trains are maintained, and diversity with regard of the signals that provide reactor trip and engineered safety features actuation is also maintained. All signals credited as primary or secondary, and all operator actions credited in the accident analyses will remain the same. The proposed changes will not result in plant operation in a configuration outside the design basis. The calculated impact on risk is insignificant and meets the acceptance criteria contained in RGs 1.174 and 1.177. Although there was no attempt to quantify any positive human factors benefit due to increased CTs and bypass test times, it is expected that there would be a net benefit due to a reduced potential for spurious reactor trips and actuations associated with testing.

Implementation of the proposed changes is expected to result in an overall improvement in safety, as follows:

a) Reduced testing will result in fewer inadvertent reactor trips, less frequent actuation of ESFAS components, less frequent distraction of operations personnel without significantly affecting RTS and ESFAS reliability.

b) Improvements in the effectiveness of the operating staff in monitoring and controlling plant operation will be realized. This is due to less 24 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 frequent distraction of the operators and shift supervisor to attend to instrumentation Required Actions with short CTs.

c) Longer repair times associated with increased CTs will lead to higher quality repairs and improved reliability.

d) The CT extensions for the reactor trip breakers will provide additional time to complete test and maintenance activities while at power, potentially reducing the number of forced outages related to compliance with reactor trip breaker CT, and provide consistency with the CT for the logic trains.

Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.

Conclusion Based on the above, it is concluded that the proposed amendment involves no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c) and, accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.

5.2 Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria The regulatory bases and guidance documents associated with the systems discussed in this amendment application include:

General design criteria (GDC) 2 requires that structures, systems, and components important to safety be designed to withstand the effects of natural phenomena such as earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, tsunami, and seiches without the loss of the capability to perform their safety functions.

GDC 4 requires that structures, systems, and components important to safety be designed to accommodate the effects of, and to be compatible with, the environmental conditions associated with the normal operation, maintenance, testing, and postulated accidents, including LOCAs. These SSCs shall be appropriately protected against dynamic effects, including the effects of missiles, pipe whipping, discharging fluids that may result from equipment failures, and from events and conditions outside the nuclear power unit.

However, dynamic effects associated with postulated pipe ruptures in nuclear power units may be excluded from the design basis when analyses reviewed and approved by the Commission demonstrate that the probability of fluid system piping rupture is extremely low under conditions consistent with the design basis for the piping.

25 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 GDC 13 requires that instrumentation shall be provided to monitor variables and systems over their anticipated ranges for normal operation, for anticipated operational occurrences, and for accident conditions as appropriate to assure adequate safety, including those variables and systems that can affect the fission process, the integrity of the reactor core, the reactor coolant pressure boundary, and the containment and its associated systems.

GDC 20 requires that the protection system(s) shall be designed (1) to initiate automatically the operation of appropriate systems including the reactivity control systems, to assure that specified acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded as a result of anticipated operational occurrences and (2) to sense accident conditions and to initiate the operation of systems and components important to safety.

GDC 21 requires that the protection system(s) shall be designed for high functional reliability and testability.

GDC 22 through GDC 25 and GDC 29 require various design attributes for the protection system(s), including independence, safe failure modes, separation from control systems, requirements for reactivity control malfunctions, and protection against anticipated operational occurrences.

RG 1.22 discusses an acceptable method of satisfying GDC 20 and GDC 21 regarding the periodic testing of protection system actuation functions. These periodic tests should duplicate, as closely as practicable, the performance that is required of the actuation devices in the event of an accident.

10 CFR 50.55a(h) requires that the protection systems meet IEEE 279-1971.

Section 4.2 of IEEE 279-1971 discusses the general functional requirement for protection systems to assure they satisfy the single failure criterion.

There will be no changes to the RTS or ESFAS instrumentation design such that compliance with any of the regulatory requirements and guidance documents above would come into question. The above evaluations confirm that the plant will continue to comply with all applicable regulatory requirements.

In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

26 PG&E Letter DCL-04-013 6.0 Environmental Consideration

[PG&E] has determined that the proposed amendment would change requirements with respect to the installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 CFR 20, or would change an inspection or surveillance requirement. However, [PG&E] has evaluated the proposed amendment and has determined that the amendment does not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amount of effluent that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in the individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.

Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22 (c)(9). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22 (b),

an environmental assessment of the proposed amendment is not required.

The additional hour for the latter provides sufficient time to accomplish the action in an orderly manner. With the rods fully inserted and the Rod Control System rendered incapable of rod withdrawal, these Functions are no longer required.

The Completion Time is reasonable considering that in this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE train is adequate to perform the safety function, and given the low probability of an event occurring during this interval.

Condition C is modified by a Note stating that while this LCO is not met for Functions 19, 20, or 21 in MODE 5 making the Rod Control System capable of rod withdrawal is not permitted. This note is in addition to the requirements of LCO 3.0.4 which preclude the transition from either MODE 3 or MODE 4 to MODE 3 or MODE 4 with the Rod control System capable of rod withdrawal or all rods not fully inserted for Functions 19, 20, or 21 with one channel or train inoperable.

The Required Actions have been modified by a Note that allows placing the inoperable channel in the bypass condition for up tog.hours while performing routine surveillance testing of other channels. The Note also allows placing the inoperable channel in the bypass condition to allow setpoint adjustments of other channels when required to reduce the setpoint in accordance with other Technical Specifications.

iaccordance with WCAP 10271, very specific circumstances are related to the use of this bypass condition. Since the NIS channels are not designed with Bypass-capable logic that meets the requirements of IEEE 279, the provisions for bypass only apply to a specific type of channel failure. To apply, the channel must fail in such a way that it does not trip the bistables. With this type of failure, the channel may be returned to service and considered "bypassed" under this Note.

Specifically, the bypass condition is the state when a failed channel is taken out of the forced "tripped" state and placed in operation. Due to the failed nature of the channel, the channel cannot be assumed to be OPERABLE, and is therefore considered to be in a state of bypass when the channel failure is such that its bistables are not tripped. The provisions of WCAP 10271 specifically prohibit the use of jumpers or lifted leads to bypass these channels.

A known inoperable channel must be placed in the tripped condition wi ours. Placing the channel in the tripped condition results in a partia~rip condition requiring only one-out-of-two logic for actuation of the two-out-of-three trips and one-out-of-three logic for actuation of the two-out-of-four trips. Th~ghours allowed to place the inoperable channel in the tripped condition is justified in Reference*

In this configuration, a second channel can be tested with the cqhannel in the tripped mode without completing reactor trip logic.

The hour time limit is justified in Reference$.

F.1 and F.2 Condition F applies to the Intermediate Range Neutron Flux trip when THERMAL POWER is above the P-6 setpoint and below the P-1 0 setpoint and one channel is inoperable. Above the P-6 setpoint and below the P-10 setpoint, the NIS intermediate range detector performs the monitoring Functions. If THERMAL POWER is greater than the P-6 setpoint but less than the P-10 setpoint, 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> is allowed to reduce THERMAL POWER below the P-6 setpoint or increase to THERMAL POWER above the P-10 setpoint. The NIS Intermediate Range Neutron Flux channels must be OPERABLE when the power level is above the capability of the source range, P-6, and below the capability of the power range, P-10. If THERMAL POWER is greater than the P-10 setpoint, the NIS power range detectors perform the monitoring and protection functions and the intermediate range is not required. The Completion Times allow for a slow and controlled power adjustment above P-10 or below P-6 and take into account the redundant capability afforded by the redundant OPERABLE channel, the overlap of the power range detectors, and the low probability of its failure during this period. This action does not require the inoperable channel to be tripped because the Function uses one-out-of-two logic.

Tripping one channel would trip the reactor. Thus, the Required Actions specified in this Condition are only applicable when channel failure does not result in reactor trip.

Required Actions specified in this Condition are only applicable when channel failures do not result in reactor trip. Above the P-6 setpoint and below the P-10 setpoint, the NIS intermediate range detector performs the monitoring Functions.

With no intermediate range channels OPERABLE, the Required Actions are to suspend operations involving positive reactivity additions immediately. This will preclude any power level increase since there are no OPERABLE Intermediate Range Neutron Flux channels. The operator must also reduce THERMAL POWER below the P-6 setpoint within two hours. Below P-6, the Source Range Neutron Flux channels will be able to monitor the core power level.

With one of the two channels inoperable, operations involving positive reactivity additions shall be suspended immediately.

This will preclude any power escalation. With only one source range channel OPERABLE, core protection is severely reduced and any actions that add positive reactivity to the core must be suspended immediately.

To apply, the channel must fail in such a way that it does not trip the bistables. With this type of failure, the channel may be returned to service and considered "bypassed" under this Note. Specifically, the bypass condition is the state when a failed channel is taken out of the forced "tripped" state and placed in operation. Due to the failed nature of the channel, the channel cannot be assumed to be OPERABLE, and is therefore considered to be in a state of bypass when the channel failure is such that its bistables are not tripped. The provisions of WCAP 10271 specifically prohibit the use of jumpers or lifted leads to bypass this channel. In this configuration, a second channel can be tested with the channel in the tripped mode without completing reactor trip logic. Thed hour time limit is justified in Referencey at-2_

W.1 and W.2 Condition W applies to the Seismic Trip, in MODES 1 and 2. With one of the channels inoperable, START UP and/or POWER OPERATION may proceed provided the inoperable channel is placed in trip within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. If a direction is inoperable, then the channel must be considered inoperable. Placing the channel in the tripped condition creates a partial trip condition requiring only one out of two logic from the remaining locations for reactor trip actuation.

X.1, X.2 and X.3 Condition X applies to the Trip Time D y (TTD) circuitry for the SG Water Level-Low Low trip function in ODES 1 and 2. With one or more TTD circuitry delay timers inopjrable or the RSC delta-T equivalent power input inoperable, )hours are allowed to adjust the threshold power level for no time delay to 0% RTP. This sets the TTD timer to zero seconds and effectively removes its input from the SG water level circuit. If the TTD timer cannot be set to zero seconds for a single SG water level control, then the affected SG water level low-low channel must be placed in trip.

SURVEILLANCE The SRs for each RTS Function are identified by the SRs column of REQUIREMENTS Table 3.3.1-1 for that Function.

A note has been added to the SR Table stating that Table 3.3.1-1 determines which SRs apply to which RTS Functions.

Note that each channel of process protection supplies both trains of the RTS. When testing Channel I, Train A and Train B must be examined.

Similarly, Train A and Train B must be examined when testing Channel II, Channel III, and Channel IV (if applicable). The CHANNEL CALIBRATION and COTs are performed in a manner that is consistent with the assumptions used in analytically calculating the required channel accuracies.

Performance of the CHANNEL CHECK once every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> ensures that gross failure of instrumentation has not occurred. A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. A CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; thus, it is key to verifying that the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including indication and readability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the sensor or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit.

SR 3.3.1.1 The Frequency is based on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal, but more frequent, checks of channels during normal operational use of the displays associated with the LCO required channels.

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 3.3.1.2 SR 3.3.1.2 compares the calorimetric heat balance calculation to the power range channel output every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. If the calorimetric heat balance calculation results exceed the power range channel output by more than + 2% RTP, the power range channel is not declared inoperable, but the excore channel gains must be adjusted. The power range channel output shall be adjusted consistent with the calorimetric heat balance calculation results if the calorimetric calculation exceeds the power range channel output by more than + 2% RTP. If the power range channel output cannot be properly adjusted, the channel is declared inoperable.

To assure a reactor trip consistent with the safety analysis, adjustments to the power range channel in the decreasing direction are not required. This allowance does not preclude making indicated power adjustments, if desired, when the calorimetric heat balance calculation power is less than the power range channel output. To provide close agreement between indicated power and to preserve operating margin, the power range channels are normally adjusted when operating at or near full power during steady-state conditions.

At lower power levels (<45% RTP), calorimetric data are inaccurate.

Discretion must be exercised if the power range channel output is adjusted in the decreasing power direction due to a part-power calorimetric (<45% RTP). This action could introduce a non-conservative bias at higher power levels which could delay an NIS reactor trip until power is above the power range high safety analysis limit (SAL) of 118% RTP. The cause of the non-conservative bias is the decreased accuracy of the calorimetric at reduced power conditions. The primary error contributor to the instrument uncertainty for a secondary side power calorimetric measurement is the feedwater flow measurement, which is determined by a AP measurement across a feedwater venturi. While the measurement uncertainty remains constant in AP span as power decreases, when translated into flow, the uncertainty increases as a square term. Thus, a 1% flow error at 100% power can approach a 10% flow error at 30% RTP even though the AP error has not changed.

To assure a reactor trip below the power range high SAL, the maximum allowable Power Range Neutron Flux-High trip Setpoint is limited according to DCPP surveillance procedures, prior to adjusting the power range channel output in the decreasing power direction whenever the calorimetric power is between 15% and 45% RTP.

(continued)

DIABLO CANYON - UNITS 1 & 2 TABB3-3.DOC - R2B 50 Revision 2

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.1.2 (continued)

REQUIREMENTS For example, to assure a reactor trip below the power range high SAL, the Power Range Neutron Flux-High trip Setpoint is reduced as necessary prior to adjusting the power range channel output in the decreasing power direction whenever the calorimetric power is 2 15% RTP and <45% RTP. The maximum allowable Power Range Neutron Flux-High trip Setpoint may be increased with increasing RTP in accordance with surveillance procedures. Following a plant refueling outage, it is prudent to reduce the Power Range Neutron Flux-High trip Setpoint prior to startup.

Before the Power Range Neutron Flux-High trip Setpoint is re-set to its nominal full power value (51 09% RTP), the power range channel calibration must be confirmed based on a calorimetric performed at 2 45% RTP.

The Note to SR 3.3.1.2 clarifies that this Surveillance is required only if reactor power is 2 15% RTP and that 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> is allowed for performing the first Surveillance after reaching 15% RTP, but prior to exceeding 30% RTP. A power level of 15% RTP is chosen based on plant stability, i.e., automatic rod control capability and the turbine generator synchronized to the grid. The 24-hour allowance after increasing THERMAL POWER above 15% RTP provides a reasonable time to attain a scheduled power plateau, establish the requisite conditions, perform the required calorimetric measurement, and make any required adjustments in a controlled, orderly manner and without introducing the potential for extended operation at high power levels with instrumentation that has not been verified to be acceptable for subsequent use.

The Frequency of every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> is adequate. It is based on unit operating experience, considering instrument reliability and operating history data for instrument drift. Together these factors demonstrate that a difference between the calorimetric heat balance calculation and the power range channel output of more than + 2% RTP is not expected in any 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> period.

In addition, control room operators periodically monitor redundant indications and alarms to detect deviations in channel outputs.

SR 3.3.1.3 SR 3.3.1.3 compares the incore system to the NIS channel output every 31 EFPD. If the absolute difference is 2 3%, the NIS channel is still OPERABLE, but must be readjusted. The excore NIS channel shall be adjusted if the absolute difference between the incore and excore AFD is 2 3%. The comparison checks for differences due to changes in core power distribution since the last calibration.

DIABLO CANYON - UNITS 1 & 2 Revision 2 TABB3-3.DOC - R2B 51

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.1.3 (continued)

REQUIREMENTS If the NIS channel cannot be properly readjusted, the channel is declared inoperable. This Surveillance is performed to verify the f(AI) input to the overtemperature AT Function.

The Note to SR 3.3.1.3 clarifies that the Surveillance is required only if reactor power is 2 50% RTP and that 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> is allowed for performing the first Surveillance after reaching 50% RTP. This Note allows power ascensions and associated testing to be conducted in a controlled and orderly manner, at conditions that provide acceptable results and without introducing the potential for extended operation at high power levels with instrumentation that has not be verified to be acceptable for subsequent use. Due to such effects as shadowing from the relatively deep control rod insertion and, to a lesser extent, the dependency of the axially-dependent radial leakage on the power level, the relationship between the incore and excore indications of axial flux difference (AFD) at lower power levels is variable. Thus, it is prudent to defer the calibration of the excore AFD against the incore AFD until more stable conditions are attained (i.e., withdrawn control rods and higher power level). The AFD is used as an input to the Overtemperature AT reactor trip function and for assessing compliance with ITS LCO 3.2.3, "AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE." Due to the DNB benefits gained by administratively restricting the power level to 50%

RTP, no limits on AFD are imposed below 50% RTP by LCO 3.2.3; thus, the proposed change is consistent with LCO 3.2.3. requirements below 50% RTP. Similarly, sufficient DNB margins are realized through operation below 50% RTP that the intended function of the Overtemperature AT reactor trip function is maintained, even though the excore AFD indication may not exactly match the incore AFD indication. Based on plant operating experience, 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> is a reasonable time frame to limit operation above 50% RTP while completing the procedural steps associated with the surveillance in an orderly manner.

The Frequency of every 31 EFPD is adequate. It is based on unit operating experience, considering instrument reliability and operating history data for instrument drift. Also, since the changes in neutron flux are slow during the fuel cycle, the expected change in the absolute difference between the incore and excore AFD will be less than 3 percent AFD during this interval.

The SR is deferred until a scheduled testing plateau above 75% RTP is attained during the post-outage power ascension. During a typical post-refueling power ascension, it is usually necessary to control the axial flux difference at lower power levels through control rod insertion.

The SR is modified by a Note that excludes verification of setpoints from the TADOT. Since this SR applies to RCP undervoltage and underfrequency relays, setpoint verification requires elaborate bench calibration and is accomplished during the CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

SR 3.3.1.10 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION is performed every 24 months, or approximately at every refueling. CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument loop, including the sensor. The test verifies that the channel responds to a measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy.

CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS must be performed consistent with the assumptions of the DCPP setpoint methodology. The difference between the current "as found" values and the previous test "as left" values must be consistent with the drift allowance used in the setpoint methodology.

REQUIREMENTS Whenever an RTD is replaced in Functions 6, 7, or 14, the next required CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the RTDs is accomplished by an inplace cross calibration that compares the other sensing elements with the recently installed sensing element.

The Frequency of 24 months is based on the assumed calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint methodology.

SR 3.3.1.10 is modified by a Note stating that this test shall include verification that the time constants are adjusted to the prescribed values where applicable.

SR 3.3.1.11 SR 3.3.1.11 is the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION, as described in SR 3.3.1.10, every 24 months. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the power range nuclear instruments includes a normalization of the detectors based on a power calorimetric and flux map performed above 15% RTP, and a test that shows allowed variances of detector voltage do not effect detector operation. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the intermediate range nuclear instruments includes a test that shows allowed variances of detector voltage do not effect detector operation. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the source range nuclear instruments includes a periodic test that optimizes detector high voltage and a conditional test for establishing baseline channel settings after maintenance. The baseline test includes obtaining detector high voltage and discriminator bias curves and using this data to evaluate detector and channel settings based on manufacturers' recommendations and industry operating experience.

This SR is modified by three Notes. Note 1 state that neutron detectors are excluded from the CHANNEL CALIBRATION. Note 2 states that the test shall include verification that the time constants are adjusted to the prescribed values where applicable.Note 3 states that, prior to entry into MODE 2 or 1, the power and intermediate range detector plateau voltage verification (as described above) is not required to be current until 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> after achieving equilibrium conditions with THERMAL POWER 2 95% RTP.

REQUIREMENTS ascension testing to be conducted in a controlled and orderly manner at conditions that provide acceptable results and without introducing the potential for extended operation at high power levels with instrumentation that has not been verified to be OPERABLE for subsequent use. The source range curves are obtained as required under the conditions that apply during a plant outage.

The 24 month Frequency is based on past operating experience, which has shown these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed on the 24 month Frequency. The conditions for obtaining the source range curves and for verifying the power and intermediate range detector operation are described above. The other remaining portions of the CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS may be performed either during a plant outage or during plant operation.

SR 3.3.1.12 SR 3.3.1.12 is the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the seismic trip, every 24 months. For function 22, Seismic Trip, the calibration shall encompass, as a minimum, the sensor relays, the SSPS, and associated required alarms. Since it is impractical to routinely remove and ship the seismic trigger packages to an offsite facility to verify calibration on a shaker table, the sensors shall be verified by introducing a known acceleration to voltage relationship to the sensor and verifying the proper action, in accordance with the manufacturers recommendations.

The Frequency is justified by the assumption of an 24 month calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis.

SR 3.3.1.13 SR 3.3.1.13 is the performance of a COT of RTS interlocks every 24 months.

The Frequency is based on the known reliability of the interlocks and the multichannel redundancy available, and has been shown to be acceptable through operating experience.

SR 3.3.1.14 SR 3.3.1.14 is the performance of a TADOT of the Manual Reactor Trip, RCP Breaker Position, Seismic Trip and the SI Input from ESFAS.

BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.3.1.14 (continued) test shall independently verify the OPERABILITY of the undervoltage and shunt trip mechanisms for the Reactor Trip Breakers and Reactor Trip Bypass Breakers. Breaker actuation is verified using the local indicator since physical verification of the main contacts is not practical.

This is acceptable based on breaker design and industry operating and maintenance experience. The Seismic Trip TADOT shall, as a minimum, verify the OPERABILITY of the channel from the seismic sensor relays to the input logic of the SSPS. The remainder of the channel is tested under the SR 3.3.1.5 or 3.3.1.12 requirements.

The Frequency is based on the known reliability of the Functions and the multichannel redundancy available, and has been shown to be acceptable through operating experience.

The SR is modified by a Note that excludes verification of setpoints from the TADOT. The Functions affected have no setpoints associated with them except for the Seismic Trip that is calibrated by SR 3.3.1.12 at the same 24 month frequency.

SR 3.3.1.15 SR 3.3.1.15 is the performance of a TADOT of Turbine Trip Functions.

This TADOT is performed prior to exceeding the P-9 interlock whenever the unit has been in MODE 3. This Surveillance is not required if it has been performed within the previous 31 days.

Verification of the Trip Setpoint does not have to be performed for this Surveillance. Performance of this test will ensure that the turbine trip Function is OPERABLE prior to exceeding the P-9 interlock.

SR 3.3.1.16 SR 3.3.1.16 verifies that the individual channel/train actuation response times are less than or equal to the maximum values assumed in the accident analysis. Response time testing acceptance criteria and the individual functions requiring RESPONSE TIME verification are included in Equipment Control Guideline (ECG) 38.1. Individual component response times are not modeled in the analyses.

The analyses model the overall or total elapsed time, from the point at which the parameter exceeds the trip setpoint value at the sensor to the point at which the equipment reaches the required functional state (i.e., control and shutdown rods fully inserted in the reactor core).

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.1.16 (continued)

REQUIREMENTS For channels that include dynamic transfer Functions (e.g., lag, lead/lag, rate/lag, etc.), the response time test may be performed with the transfer Function set to one, with the resulting measured response time compared to the appropriate FSAR response'time. Alternately, the response time test can be performed with the time constants set to their nominal value, provided the required response time is analytically calculated assuming the time constants are set at their nominal values.

The response time may be measured by a series of overlapping tests such that the entire response time is measured.

The response time testing for the SG water level low-low does not include trip time delays. Response times include the transmitters, Eagle-21 process protection cabinets, solid state protection system cabinets, and actuation devices only. This reflects the response times necessary for THERMAL POWER in excess of 50 percent RTP. For those functions without a specified response time, SR 3.3.1.16 is not applicable.

Response time may be verified by actual response time tests in any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel measurements, or by the summation of allocated sensor response times with actual response time tests on the remainder of the channel. Allocations for sensor response times may be obtained from: (1) historical records based on acceptable response time tests (hydraulic, noise, or power interrupt tests), (2) inplace, onsite, or offsite (e.g. vendor) test measurements, or (3) utilizing vendor engineering specifications.

WCAP-13632-P-A Revision 2, "Elimination of Pressure Sensor Response Time Testing Requirements" (Ref. 8) provides the basis and methodology for using allocated sensor response times in the overall verification of the channel response time for specific sensors identified in the WCAP. Response time verification for other sensor types must be demonstrated by test.

The allocations for sensor response times must be verified prior to placing the component in initial operational service and re-verified following maintenance that may adversely affect response time. In general, electrical repair work does not impact response time provided the parts used for repair are of the same type and value. One example where response time could be affected is replacing the sensing assembly of a transmitter.

As appropriate, each channel's response time must be verified every 24 months on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. Each verification shall (continued)

DIABLO CANYON - UNITS 1 & 2 Revision 2 TABB3-3.DOC - R2B 60

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.1.16 (continued)

REQUIREMENTS include at least one train such that both trains are verified at least once per 48 months and one channel per function such that all channels are tested at least once every N times 24 months where N is the total number of redundant channels in a specific RT function. Testing of the final actuation devices is included in the verification. Response times cannot be determined during unit operation because equipment operation is required to measure response times. Experience has shown that these components usually pass this surveillance when performed at the 24 month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency was concluded to be acceptable from a reliability standpoint.

SR 3.3.1.16 is modified by a Note stating that neutron detectors are excluded from RTS RESPONSE TIME testing. This Note is necessary because of the difficulty in generating an appropriate detector input signal. Excluding the detectors is acceptable because the principles of detector operation ensure a virtually instantaneous response. The source range preamplifiers are also excluded. This is acceptable because the principles of operation of the preamplifier have been evaluated and a determination made that there are no credible failure mechanisms that could affect response time that would not be detected during routine testing.Response time of the neutron flux signal portion of the channel shall be measured from detector output or input to the first electronic component in the channel, exclusive of the preamplifier.

ESFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.2 BASES ACTIONS B.1, B.2.1 and B.2.2 (continued)

Condition B applies to manual initiation of:

SI; Containment Spray; Phase A Isolation; and Phase B Isolation.

This action addresses the train orientation of the SSPS for the functions listed above. If a channel or train is inoperable, 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is allowed to return it to an OPERABLE status. Note that for containment spray and Phase B isolation, failure of one or both channels in one train renders the train inoperable. Condition B, therefore, encompasses both situations. The specified Completion Time is reasonable considering that there are two automatic actuation trains and another manual initiation train OPERABLE for each Function, and the low probability of an event occurring during this interval. If the train cannot be restored to OPERABLE status, the unit must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply.

Low Low; If one channel is inoperablea hours are allowed to restore the channel to OPERABLE status or to place it in the tripped condition. Generally this Condition applies to functions that operate on two-out-of-three logic (excluding pressurizer pressure - low which is two-out-of-four due to its control input function). Therefore, failure of one channel places the Function in a two-out-of-two configuration. The inoperable channel must be tripped to place the Function in a one-out-of-two configuration that satisfies redundancy requirements. Since pressurizer pressure is used for control and SSPS input, its coincidence is two-out-of-four to provide to required reliability and redundancy. Failure of one channel places the function in a two-out-of-three configuration. The inoperable channel must be placed in the tripped condition to place the Function in a one-out-of-three configuration that satisfies the reliability and redundancy requirements. 4-..

E.1. E.2.1, and E.2.2 Condition E applies to:

  • Steam Line Isolation - Containment Pressure - High-high This signal does not input to a control function. Thus, two-out-of-three logic is necessary to meet acceptable protective requirements.

However, a two-out-of-three design would require tripping a failed channel. This is undesirable because a single failure of the Containment Pressure input would then cause spurious containment spray initiation. Spurious spray actuation is undesirable because of the cleanup problems presented. Therefore, these channels are designed with two-out-of-four logic so that a failed channel may be bypassed rather than tripped. Note that one channel may be bypassed and still satisfy the single failure criterion. Furthermore, with one channel bypassed, a single instrumentation channel failure will not spuriously initiate containment spray.

ESFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.2 BASES ACTIONS E.1. E.2.1, and E.2.2 (continued)

To avoid the inadvertent actuation of containment spray and Phase B containment isolation, the inoperable channel should not be placed in the tripped condition. Instead it is bypassed. Restoring the channel to OPERABLE status, or placing the inoperable channel in the bypass condiion wit ir hours, is sufficient to assure that the Function remains OPERABLE and minimizes the time that the Function may be in a partial trip condition (assuming the inoperable channel has failed high). The Completion Time is further justified based on the low probability of an event occurring during this interval.

The Required Actions are modified b ote that allows the inoperable channel to be bypassed for up tours for surveillance testing of other channels. In accordance with WCAP 10271, very specific circumstances are related to the use of this bypass condition for ESFAS Functions 6.g. Since this channel is not designed with Bypass-capable logic that meets the requirements of IEEE 279, the provisions for bypass only apply to a specific type of channel failure.

To apply, the channel must fail in such a way that it does not trip the bistables. With this type of failure, the channel may be returned to service and considered "bypassed" under this Note. Specifically, the bypass condition is the state when a failed channel is taken out of the forced "tripped" state and placed in operation. Due to the failed nature of the channel, the channel cannot be assumed to be OPERABLE, and is therefore considered to be in a state of bypass when the channel failure is such that its bistables are not tripped. The provisions of WCAP 10271 specifically prohibit the use of jumpers or lifted leads to bypass this channel. In this configuration, a second channel can be tested with the channel in the tripped mode without completing ESFAS

Condition P applies to:

Containment Spray - Containment Pressure - High-High.

Containment Isolation - Phase B Isolation - Containment Pressure -

High-High Neither of these signals has input to a control function. Thus, two-out-of-three logic is necessary to meet acceptable protective requirements. However, a two-out-of-three design would require tripping a failed channel. This is undesirable because a single failure would then cause spurious containment spray initiation. Spurious spray actuation is undesirable because of the cleanup problems presented. Therefore, these channels are designed with two-out-of-four logic so that a failed channel may be bypassed rather than tripped. Note that one channel may be bypassed and still satisfy the single failure criterion. Furthermore, with one channel bypassed, a single instrumentation channel failure will not spuriously initiate containment spray. The containment spray signal is also interlocked with SI and will not initiate without simultaneous SI and containment spray signals.

To avoid the inadvertent actuation of containment spray and Phase B containment isolation, the inoperable channel is bypassed. Restoring the channel to OPERABLE status, or placing the inoperable channel in 2

tne bypass condition withi hours, is sufficient to assure that the Function remains OPERABtE and minimizes the time that the Function may be in a partial trip condition (assuming the inoperable channel has failed high).

SURVEILLANCE The SRs for each ESFAS Function are identified by the SRs column of REQUIREMENTS Table 3.3.2-1.

A Note has been added to the SR Table to clarify that Table 3.3.2-1 determines which SRs apply to which ESFAS Functions.

Note that each channel of process protection supplies both trains of the ESFAS. When testing channel 1, train A and train B must be examined. Similarly, train A and train B must be examined when testing channel 11, channel l1l, and channel IV (if applicable).

A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. A CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; thus, it is key to verifying the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

Agreement criteria are established in STP I-1A, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including indication and reliability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the sensor or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit.

The Frequency is based on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal, but more frequent, checks of channels during normal operational use of the displays associated with the LCO required channels.

Actuation equipment that may be operated in the design mitigation MODE is either allowed to function, or is placed in a condition where the relay contact operation can be verified without operation of the equipment. Actuation equipment that may not be operated in the design mitigation MODE is prevented from operation by the SLAVE RELAY TEST circuit.

Each Manual Actuation Function is tested up to, and including, the master relay coils. In some instances, the test includes actuation of the end device (i.e., pump starts, valve cycles, etc.).

REQUIREMENTS Whenever an RTD is replaced in Function 6.d., the next required CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the RTDs is accomplished by an inplace cross calibration that compares the other sensing elements with the recently installed sensing element.

The Frequency of 24 months is based on the assumption of an 24 month calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint methodology.

This SR is modified by a Note stating that this test should include verification that the time constants are adjusted to the prescribed values where applicable.

SR 3.3.2.10 This SR ensures the individual channel ESF RESPONSE TIMES are less than or equal to the maximum values assumed in the accident analysis. RESPONSE TIME testing acceptance criteria and the individual Functions requiring RESPONSE TIME Verification are included in ECG 38.2. Individual component response times are not modeled in the analyses. The analyses model the overall or total elapsed time, from the point at which the parameter exceeds the Trip Setpoint value at the sensor, to the point at which the equipment in both trains reaches the required functional state (e.g., pumps at rated discharge pressure, valves in full open or closed position).

For channels that include dynamic transfer functions (e.g., lag, lead/lag, rate/lag, etc.), the response time test may be performed with the transfer functions set to one with the resulting measured response time compared to the appropriate FSAR response time. Alternately, the response time test can be performed with the time constants set to their nominal value provided the required response time is analytically calculated assuming the time constants are set at their nominal values.

The response time may be measured by a series of overlapping tests such that the entire response time is measured.

Response time may be verified by actual response time tests in any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel measurements, or by the summation of allocated sensor response times with actual response time tests on the remainder of the channel. Allocations for sensor response times may be obtained from: 1) historical records based on acceptable response time tests (hydraulic, noise, or power interrupt tests), 2) inplace, onsite, or offsite (e.g., vendor) test measurements, or 3) utilizing vendor engineering specifications.

REQUIREMENTS Response time Testing requirements," dated January 1996, provides the basis and the methodology of using allocated sensor response times in the overall verification of the channel response time for specific sensors identified in the WCAP. Response time verification for other sensor types must be demonstrated by test.

The allocations for sensor response times must be verified prior to placing the component in initial operational service and re-verified following maintenance that may adversely affect response time. In general, electrical repair work does not impact response time provided the parts used for repair are of the same type and value. One example where response time could be affected is replacing the sensing assembly of a transmitter.

ESF RESPONSE TIME tests are conducted on a 24 month STAGGERED TEST BASIS.

Each verification shall include at least one train such that both trains are verified at least once per 48 months and one channel per function such that all channels are tested at least once every N times 24 months where N is the total number of redundant channels in a specific ESFAS function. Testing of the final actuation devices, which make up the bulk of the response time, is included in the testing of each train.

Therefore, staggered testing results in response time verification of one train of devices every 24 months. The 24 month Frequency is consistent with the typical refueling cycle and is based on unit operating experience, which shows that random failures of instrumentation components causing serious response time degradation, but not channel failure, are infrequent occurrences.

This SR is modified by a Note that clarifies that the turbine driven AFW pump is tested within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after reaching 650 psig in the SGs.

Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation B 3.3.6 BASES (continued)

SURVEILLANCE A Note states that Condition C is applicable during CORE REQUIREMENTS ALTERATIONS and during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies within containment.

A Note has been added to the SR Table to clarify that Table 3.3.6-1 determines which SRs apply to which Containment Ventilation Isolation Functions.

SR 3.3.6.1 Performance of the CHANNEL CHECK once every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> ensures that a gross failure of instrumentation has not occurred. A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. A CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; thus, it is key to verifying the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including indication and readability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the sensor or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit.

The Frequency is based on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal, but more frequent, checks of channels during normal operational use of the displays associated with the LCO required channels.

SR 3.3.6.2 SR 3.3.6.2 is the performance of an ACTUATION LOGIC TEST. The train being tested is placed in the bypass condition, thus preventing inadvertent actuation. Through the semiautomatic tester, all possible logic combinations, with and without applicable permissives, are tested for each protection function. In addition, the master relay coil is pulse tested for continuity. This verifies that the logic modules are OPERABLE and there is an intact voltag signal path to the master relay coils. This test is performed ever a son a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The Surveillance interval is cepkldse uu instrumnft re;li3ty and industr; operaitng experiene-

MASTER RELAY TEST is the energizing of the master relay, verifying contact operation and a low voltage continuity check of the slave relay coil.

verifies the capability of the instrumentation to provide the containment purge and vacuum/pressure relief system isolation.

To ensure complete end-to-end testing through the CVI mode selector switch, the CFT is only valid for the position in use during the test.

SR 3.3.6.5 SR 3.3.6.5 is the performance of a SLAVE RELAY TEST. The SLAVE RELAY TEST is the energizing of the slave relays. Contact operation is verified in one of two ways. Actuation equipment that may be operated in the design mitigation mode is either allowed to function or is placed in a condition where the relay contact operation can be verified without operation of the equipment. Actuation equipment that may not be operated in the design mitigation mode is prevented from operation by the SLAVE RELAY TEST circuit. For this latter case, contact operation is verified by a continuity check of the circuit containing the slave relay. This test is performed every 24 months.

The Frequency is acceptable based on instrument reliability and industry operating experience.

SR 3.3.6.6 There is no manual actuation of CVI except via Si, phase A or B. This testing is performed as part of SR 3.3.2.8 SR 3.3.6.7 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION is performed every 24 months, or approximately at every refueling. CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument loop, including the sensor.

Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation B 3.3.6 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.6.7 (continued)

REQUIREMENTS The test verifies that the channel responds to a measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy. The Frequency is based on operating experience and is consistent with the typical industry refueling cycle.

SR 3.3.6.8 This SR assures that the individual channel RESPONSE TIMES for the CVI from Containment Purge Radiation Gaseous and Particulate function are less than or equal to the maximum values assumed in the accident analysis. Response Time testing acceptance criteria are included in ECG 38.2. Individual component response times are not modeled in the analyses. The analyses model the overall or elapsed time, from the point at which the parameter exceeds the Trip Setpoint value at the sensor, to the point at which the equipment in both trains reaches the required functional state (e.g., valves in full closed position). The response time may be measured by a series of overlapping tests such that the entire response time is measured.

RESPONSE TIME tests are conducted on an 24 month STAGGERED TEST BASIS. Each verification shall include at least one train such that both trains are verified at least once per 48 months and one channel per function such that all channels are tested at least once every N times 24 months where N is the total number of redundant channels in a specific ESFAS function. Testing of the final actuation devices, which make up the bulk of the response time, is included in the testing of each train. Therefore, staggered testing results in response time verification of one train of devices every 24 months.

The 24 month Frequency is consistent with the typical refueling cycle and is based on unit operating experience, which shows that random failures of instrumentation components causing serious response time degradation, but not channel failure, are infrequent occurrences.

1. Both types of logic cabinets, SSPS and Relay, are included in WCAP-14333 and the analysis is applicable to DCPP.
2. Since our test intervals are equal to or greater than those used in WCAP-14333, the analysis is applicable to DCPP.
3. Since channel calibrations are not typically done at-power (see Note 12) and the calibration interval is equal to or greater than that used in WCAP-14333, the analysis is applicable to DCPP.
4. Since DCPP's maintenance intervals are equal to or greater than those used in WCAP-14333, the analysis is applicable to DCPP.
5. Only corrective maintenance is done on the master and slave relays. The typical maintenance interval is relatively long; that is, experience has shown they do not typically completely fail. Failure of these relays usually involves failure of individual contacts. Since 'infrequent' master and slave relay failures are the norm, the WCAP-14333 analysis is applicable to DCPP.
6. Since AMSAC will initiate AFW pump start, the WCAP-14333 analysis is applicable to DCPP.
7. This entry includes the total frequency for initiators requiring a reactor trip signal to be generated for event mitigation to assess the importance of ATWS events to CDF. Events initiated by a reactor trip are not included. Since the plant specific value is less than the WCAP-14333 value, this analysis is applicable to DCPP.
8. This entry indicates the ATWS contribution to core damage frequency (from at-power, internal events) to determine if the ATWS event is a large contributor to CDF.
9. This entry indicates the total CDF from internal events (including internal flooding) for the most recent PRA model update for comparison to the NRC's risk-informed CDF acceptance guidelines.
10. This entry indicates the total CDF from internal events from the IPE model submitted to the NRC in response to Generic Letter 88-20. See Note 14 for differences between the most recent PRA model update and that included in the GL 88-20 response.
11. Most slave relays are tested on a refueling basis. Some are tested quarterly.

PG&E Letter DCL-04-013

12. Analog channel calibrations are typically performed during refueling outages, but there is no requirement for that and they are sometimes performed at power.
13. Note 4 states that WCAP-14333 applies if the maintenance intervals are greater than or equal to those assumed. Per Westinghouse, the note only applies to maintenance at power. Since DCPP typically performs preventive maintenance on the analog channels, logic trains, and RTBs while shutdown, the analysis is applicable to DCPP.
14. Note 10 requires reconciliation between the current CDF and that reported to NRC in response to GL 88-20. The major contributors to the difference between the current CDF and that reported in the IPE is due to the following plant and PRA model changes:

Sixth diesel generator was added to the model.

Installed high temperature qualified O"O rings in the RCP seals.

  • Added the backup Class I battery chargers.
  • Added backup water supply to the AFW pumps.

Increased the level of detail in the ASW modeling.

  • Added the third PORV.
  • Added BOP systems (feedwater, condensate, circulating water/service water, non-vital power, and completed modeling of instrument air).

Reduced initiating event frequencies based on more recent industry data (NUREG-5750).
