Failure to trip the deadheaded pump before it is damaged leads to loss of heat removal capability and subsequent containment overpressurization.

A potential means of precluding the need to trip the RHR pumps would be to install a normally open CCW flow bypass line around the RHR Hx outlet valve. This would ensure that minimum cooling flow would be available to prevent damage to the RHR pumps when they are running with the RCS at high pressure (SAMA 1 ). 1.01 E+OO 125V DC BUS F -LONG TERM This is an intermediate SF for DF4, which represents the (TRAIN 11): 125V DC VITAL unavailability of DC bus F.

The scenario including this 52HG15 impacted -for scenario SF are typically associated with fires in the 4-A-1 area ZTRY22F1 (Chemical Lab Area, G Bus Compartment).

In these cases, the fire impacts RHR pump 1-1 and 480V bus Gin combination with the random failue of DG 1-1 and fire induced failue of 4KV bus G. The result is a failure of power to the DG fuel oil system, which leads to an SBO as it is also combined with a failure to align the backup power supply to the fuel oil system. DCPP has a viable recovery option for this typs of event, but the action to perform the task is impacted by degraded instrumentation and it has failed. These types of events could also potentially be mitigated through the use of portable, engine driven, high pressure RCS and SG injection pumps (SAMA 18). 1.01 E+OO SUPPORT FOR THE TOP AND This SF represents the failure of MD AFW pump 13 given MOP 1-2 UNAVAILABLE the unavailability of the other two pumps. A potential approach to restoring SG makeup would be to provide an engine driven SG makeup pump that can be aligned in time to mitigate loss of SG makeup scenarios (SAMA 2).

The SF appears in the importance list, but it is related to non-minimal failures that do not directly impact the sequence of events. No SAMAs are required.

1.01 E+OO TOP EVENT Sl: 8976, 8974B, This SF represents the failure of the Sl top event given and all ZSI2 components fire impact on the RWST suction and recirculation valves. impacted The sequences that include this SF often include RHR pump failure due to the failure to trip the pumps when operating in the "deadhead" condition.

A potential means of precluding the need to trip the RHR pumps would be to install a normally open CCW flow bypass line around the RHR Hx outlet valve. This would ensure that minimum cooling flow would be available to prevent damage to the RHR pumps when they are running with the RCS at high pressure (SAMA 1 ). 1.01 E+OO SSPS Trains A and B Not Avail This represents failure of containment isolation when both but Manual Recovery Avail SSPS trains are unavailable.

The primary contributors to these scenarios are flooding events that lead to failure of all three DC batteries/buses.

Credit is already taken for manual isolation of the flooding event. A portable DC generator could be used to directly power critical loads in the event that batteries have failed (SAMA 1 0).

The scenarios generally include for fire area 9A either a failure to swap recirculation mode or failure to trip deadheaded RHR pumps to prevent pump damage. Automating the swap to recirculation mode could improve the reliability of the function (SAMA 7). A potential means of precluding the need to trip the RHR pumps would be to install a normally open CCW flow bypass line around the RHR Hx outlet valve. This would ensure that minimum cooling flow would be available to prevent damage to the RHR pumps when they are running with the RCS at high pressure (SAMA 1 ). 1.01 E+OO UNIT 1 BUS H DIESEL This SF represents the failure of DG 1-1 given success of GENERATOR:

DG 1-1 (BUS H) DG 1-2 (and bypass of DG 1-3). In top contributors, the : GF-B,GG-S failure of DG 1-1 is combined with fire induced failure of Sl pump 1-2, leaving no adequate high pressure injection supply to mitigate the fire induced LOCA. Cross-tie from the opposite unit is available, but common cause failures would likely limit the credit associated with including the capability in the model. Installation of a self-contained, independent swing diesel, not dependent on external support systems, would provide increased defense in depth and should be considered for loss of onsite emergency AC power sources (SAMA 15).

The primary UNAVAILABLE contributors containing this SF are LOOP and SBO seismic events in which MD AFW is failed due to power dependencies.

Subsequent to the TO AFW failure, feed and bleed is unavailable due to loss of po_wer to one PORV and loss of instrument air for the other. Providing a backup air supply to PORV PCV 474 could reduce the feed and bleed failures associated with loss of instrument air (SAMA 5). Also, a more robust seismically-resistant 4kV power source (SAMA 4 or SAMA 15) can provide some benefit. 1.01 E+OO PCV-19 spuriously opens due to This SF represents the failure of PCV-19 to open for fire: fire impact PCV-20, PCV-21 steam relief given fire impact on the other 3 ADVs. Many and PCV-22 of the scenarios that include this SF also include failure of the charging pumps due to loss of cooling to the pumps, which impacts mitigation of a fire induced LOCA. In these cases, instrumentation for diagnosis is degraded and there is limited time for the 30 minute alternate cooling alignment from fire water. A potential imporovement would be to provide a hard pipe connection between the fire water system and the charging pump cooling lines to simplify the alignment and reduce the time required for the action (SAMA 23). 1.01 E+OO INDUCED RCS HOT LEG OR This SF represents the probability of failure of the RCS SURGE LINE FAILURE hot leg or surge line after core damage, which occurs for a diverse range of events.

Given that this SF is associated with a large scale seismic event (greater than 1. 75g), a new mitigating system capable of responding after seismic events (potentially up to 4g) is considered to be required.

Such a system would include a 4KV power source, a core spray type injection system (with a qualified PORV) capable of spraying the core for cooling until the reactor cavity is flooded to a level above TAF, a connection to a large seismically qualified source of water (wells or seawater), and a heat exchanger system (SAMA 4).

SUMMARY

SAMA DESCRIPTION For scenarios in which an Sl signal is generated while the RCS pressure remains above the RHR low pressure interlock for extended times, it is necessary for the operators to check the status of the RHR pumps at some point after initiation and to shut them down to prevent pump damage. If CCW is flowing to the RHR heat exchangers, however, the action to trip the RHR pumps is not required to prevent pump failure. A means of preventing RHR pump failure without adding a large, early demand on the CCW system is to add a small, normally open bypass line around the RHR heat exchanger outlet valves in the CCW flowpath.

For cases in which the AFW pumps have failed and/or the support systems are failed, such as the 480V AC switchgear, providing an independent means of injecting water to the steam generators could provide the secondary side heat removal function.

Ensuring that the makeup pump can be aligned in time to mitigate early loss of AFW scenarios and that diverse pump suction supplies are available (e.g., Fire Water, Raw Water) is required to mitigate the top DCPP risks. (This SAMA is addressed by elements of the DCPP FLEX strategy.)

SUMMARY

SAMA DESCRIPTION SOURCE The DCPP fire procedure already identifies PRA equipment that may be damaged for each Importance List fire area and provides guidance to mitigate Review failed equipment.

A potential enhancement would be explicitly identify that fire damage may impact auto Sl actuation and direct the operators to monitor valid instruments to ensure it functions when it is required.

For large scale seismic events, many of the PRA plant's mitigating systems may be damaged Importance List to an extent that only an independent, Review seismically durable system would be capable of preventing core damage. Such a system would include a 4KV power source, a core spray type injection header (with a qualified PORV) capable of spraying the core for cooling until the reactor cavity is flooded to a level above TAF, a connection to a large seismically qualified source of water (wells or seawater), and a heat exchanger system. (A significant portion of this SAMA's design is addressed by elements of the DCPP FLEX strategy.

One exception is that this SAMA includes a core spray-like injection for reactor cavity flooding.)

Currently, loss of offsite power results in the PRA loss of the lA system.

SUMMARY

SAMA DESCRIPTION SOURCE core damage. Alternate Switchgear Room cooling PRA procedures already exist for DCPP, but the Importance List loss of room cooling is still an important Review issue. While costly, a potential means of reducing the HVAC failure contribution would be to install an independent train of HVAC. The operators are well trained on the action PRA to transition the RCS injection systems to Importance List recirculation mode, but automating the Review process will further improve reliability and reduce the contribution of this action to core damage scenarios.

For fires in areas 6-A-2 and 6-A-3, fire PRA induced failure of the 8700A/B and the FCV-Importance List 641A/B valves lead to loss of the RHR Review system, which is critical for mitigating the fire scenarios.

Providing additional protection for the cables associated with these components in these areas could help improve the likelihood that RHR would remain available.

SUMMARY

SAMA DESCRIPTION SOURCE For some flooding scenarios, including PRA those in fire areas 14-A and 3-Q-2, the AFW Importance List system is damaged by flood water from fire Review protection system breaks. Providing barriers to protect the TD AFW pump can reduce the likelihood that the pump will be damaged. The MD AFW pumps are susceptible to flood water incursion via ventilation ducts that must remain open to provide adequate room cooling. To protect the MD AFW pumps from these flooding events, it would be necessary to replace the existing equipment with a waterproof pump. In order to mitigate DC system failures, an PRA alternate DC generator could be used to Importance List directly power a bus (bypasses charger Review faults) or directly power critical loads (bypasses distribution failures).

The generator should be stored in a seismically qualified area so that it would potentially be available to respond in seismic scenarios.

For LOCA events in which the RHR pumps PRA have failed, but cooling flow is available to Importance List the RH R heat exchangers, the availability of Review an additional RHR pump that can be powered from any AC division would provide a means of containment heat removal.

(Some of the capabilities represented by this SAMA are addressed by elements of the DCPP FLEX strategy.

One difference is that the FLEX strategy uses a portable 4 kV power supply delivered from the regional response center that would not be immediatley available.)

The DCPP fire procedure already include PRA guidance that addresses spurious actuation Importance List of equipment, but its use is not currently tied Review to specific fire areas. A potential enhancement would be to include cautions in the procedures to identify fire areas where damage could cause specific spurious actuations and identify the attachment with the mitigating steps.

SUMMARY

SAMA DESCRIPTION SOURCE. There are multiple scenarios related to Fire PRA Protection system pipe breaks that, if un-Importance List isolated, lead to significant equipment Review damage. In order to improve the likelihood of flood termination, water sensors could be installed in areas containing critical equipment that can be impacted by fire protection system floods, such as those containing the AFW, CCW, and RHR pumps. The water level sensor could be linked to logic that would trip the fire protection pumps and/or isolate a critical valve for scenarios where there is not a coincident fire alarm. For events such as internal floods or fires PRA that can result in the loss of multiple, critical Importance List plant functions, recovery may be easier via Review the use of portable equipment that bypasses the permanently installed equipment.

The use of portable engine driven pumps for primary and secondary side makeup can provide a means of maintaining RCS inventory and decay heat removal. Ensuring the equipment can be aligned in time to respond to loss of AFW cases, have diverse suction sources, and injection points will improve the flexibility of the enhancement. (This SAMA is addressed by elements of the DCPP FLEX strategy; however, the FLEX strategy uses a 480V AC pump powered by a portable generator for RCS makeup.)

SUMMARY

SAMA DESCRIPTION The availability of primary side steam generator isolation vales would provide a simple means of isolating ruptured SGs. While secondary side isolation capability exists, these valves would help avoid challenges to secondary side integrity due to failure to rapidly cool down the primary side. In the event that the MG set breakers do not trip in an ATWS, an alternate signal, such as an AMSAC signal, could be used to depower the 480V AC supply that powers the MG sets to ensure the control rod drive units are shut down. The 480V trip could be delayed so that it is only performed after 30 seconds with a valid A TWS signal. The DCPP fire procedure already identifies equipment that may be damaged for each fire area and provides guidance to mitigate failed equipment.

A potential enhancement would be to explicitly identify the containment isolation valves that may be impacted for each fire area. Where possible, the fire procedures could direct manual actions to close the valves. In cases where manual isolation would not be desirable until after loss of equipment or core damage, a reference to other procedures, such as the Severe Accident Mitigation Guidelines could be provided.

SUMMARY

SAMA DESCRIPTION Early containment failure is a contributor to the LERF release category.

Although inerting containment in accident conditions could help prevent burns of combustible gases, a better solution is to install backed igniters throughout upper dome of containment.

For cases in which CCW is not available for charging pump cooling, it is possible to connect the Fire Protection system to the charging pump cooling line to provide alternate pump cooling. However , the current alignment requires the use of fire hoses and may not be viable in time stressed events, such as some fire scenarios.

By providing a hard piped connection with manual isolation valves, the alignment could be performed rapidly and the reliability of the action could potentially be improved.

If CCW is flowing to the RHR heat exchangers, however, the action to trip the RHR pumps is not required to prevent pump failure. A means of preventing RHR pump failure without adding a large, early demand on the CCW system is to add a small, normally open bypass line around the RHR heat exchanger outlet valves in the CCW flowpath.

The DCPP fire procedure already identifies equipment that may be damaged for each fire area and provides guidance to mitigate failed equipment.

A potential enhancement would be explicitly identify that fire damage may impact auto Sl actuation and direct the operators to monitor valid instruments to ensure it functions when it is required.

Currently, loss of offsite power results in the loss of the lA system. Changing the air supply to PCV 474 (Pressurizer PORV) to a class I backup air supply would prevent this and reduce the loss of lA contributions to core damage. Fore fires in areas 6-A-2 and 6-A-3, fire induced failure of the 8700A/B and the FCV-641A/B valves lead to loss of the RHR system, which is critical for mitigating the fire scenarios.

Providing additional protection for the cables associated with *these components in these areas could help improve the likelihood that RHR would remain available.

The DCPP fire procedure already includes guidance that addresses spurious actuation of equipment, but its use is not currently tied to specific fire areas. A potential enhancement would be to include cautions in the procedures to identify fire areas where damage could cause specific spurious actuations and identify the attachment with the mitigating steps. The DCPP fire procedure already identifies equipment that may be damaged for each fire area and provides guidance to mitigate failed equipment.

A potential enhancement would be to explicitly identify the containment isolation valves that may be impacted for each fire area. Where possible, the fire procedures could direct manual actions to close the valves. In cases where manual isolation would not be desirable until after loss of equipment or core damage, a reference to other procedures, such as the Severe Accident Mitigation Guidelines could be provided.

However, the current alignment requires the use of fire hoses and may not be viable in time stressed events, such as some fire scenarios.

By providing a hard piped connection with manual isolation valves, the alignment could be performed rapidly and the reliability of the action could-potentially be improved.

Even if it assumed that the benefit of SAMA 7 is directly proportional to the RWST makeup HEP, a multiplier of 5 on the SAMA 7 averted cost risk (to account for the difference in proposed HEPs) would still not yield a cost beneficial result. The result of multiplying the 95 1 h percentile averted cost-risk by a factor of 5 is still far below the $10.6 million implementation cost: 5 * $1,019,665

= $5,098,325.

This issue will not change the SAMA identification process or the conclusions of the cost benefit analysis.

This was because in most cases, seismic induced the plant had already tripped from the seismic event LOSP has (via seismic trip) and did not experience a load insignificant impact on rejection when 500 kV was lost.

time. To be more correct, the seismic trip should be added to the model and then the effect of the seismic trip can be evaluated probabilistically.

Second item is the seismic trip has a setpoint of about 0.3 g's which is about 2/3's the way through the first seismic initiator (which goes to 0.53). This would imply that below 0.35 there should be a PORV challenge, if 500 kV was lost (which is not yet modeled).

To better model this SEIS1 initiator should be changed to 0.4, and the details of the 500 kV and seismic trip should be modeled. Note RISKMAN is limited to only six acceleration levels, so this would require re-adjusting the exist boundary between SEIS1 and SEIS2. Also note this corresponds to the double design earthquake (ODE) earthquake, which was the safe shutdown earthquake prior to the HOSGRI upgrades which put the SSE to 0.75 g's. 12/19/02 EGO Also note we do not model a PORV challenge on seismically induced LOSP, which should be adequate for SEIS 2 through 6 due to seismic trip, but maybe a noticeable contributor in SEIS1.

Diablo Canyon Power Plant Page F-266 License Renewal Application Action Title/ Applicable SR CCW model has Header 'C' and HEP combined Diablo Canyon Power Plant License Renewal Application APPENDIX E ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT AMENDMENT 2 Addendum 1 Evaluation of PRA Open Items /Issues on SAMA Process Action Description While researching HEPs, it was noticed that credit is taken for the operator to reduce heat loads for LLOCA (and MLOCA and SLBI), even though they may not have enough time. In other words, we are using the HEP for heat load reduction for all initiators.

For LLOCA, MLOCA and SLBI, we generally have HI-HI containment pressure ("P" signal), which will isolate CCW non-vital Header C. The various CCW calculations support one CCW pump as adequate for flow and heat loads when Header C is isolated.

This implies that failure of the HEP roughly approximates the hardware failure of Header C to isolate. To more accurately model the worth of the HEP and FCV-355 (Header C), they should probably be split out into separate items. Also note that the current modeling does not model the support for Header C automatic isolation (SSPS for "P" signal and Bus H for MOV power). This should have little affect on CDF or LERF, but will affect some basic event importances.

07/11/02 Further research during the NRC inspection also noticed FCV-355. We need to investigate if Header 'C' Isolation is required for Phase "B" actuation even if two CCW pumps are running. 11/12/02 Upon reviewing E.11 revision 9, it was noticed by AXA that the calc file talks about isolating Header 'C' (implied by INIT=SLBI for general transient) and failing to trip the RCPS should give a failure of the seals. There is logic in top event for this in RP, but no logic for it in SE. so on INIT=SLBI if the RCPS are still running, and charging has failed the rules use split fraction SE2. But it should use SE2 only if -INIT=SLBI, and if INIT=SLBI (and charging AHS failed, it should use SEF). On reviewing past calculation files it appears that it has been this way since Revision 1 and possibly Revision 0 of C.4.2. A quick review of INIT=SLBI in PLG-0637 did not clarify anything as none of the SBLI sequences showed any SE failing (almost like it was bypassed in the tree. Current Status/ Comment Revise rule for split fraction SE2 and SEF associated with SLBI initiator.
