Preoperational Test Procedure Review

,

This unresolved item (75-8/2) was initially identified in IE Report No. 50-302/75-8, Details II, paragraph 2, and subequently discussed i

in IE Report No. 50-302/75-11, Details I, paragraph 4.b.

Preliminary evaluation by the licensee of provisions to prevent safeguards systems pump runout has afforded the following informatica:

a.

Reactor Building Spray System (RBSS)

This system has installed orifices in each loop.

A licensee representative stated that FPC would verify that these orifices plus the system pipe resistances are sufficient to prevent

.

.

pump runout.

In addition, manually operated valves that can

,

be throttled and locked out are located at the discharge of

,

the pump in each loop.

b.

Low Pressure Injection System (LPIS)

'.

Each loop of this system contains two motor operated valves in

,

series. The limit switches of these valves can be set so that

['

the flow is restricted to prevent pump runout.

Since the

,

valves are in series, if one valve fails in the full open position, redundancy is achieved by the second valve to pre-vent pump runout.

.-

c.

High Pressure Injection System (HPIS)

This system contains a motor operated valve in each of four parallel lines between the pumps and the inlet nozzle to clie reactor. vessel.

The limit switches of these valves can be set to restrict the flow to the desired rate.

The licensee agreed to take precautions against pump runout in case of a single failure if these valves are used for flow restriction.

The licensee has requested assistance from the design engineer in determining the most desirable method for prevention of safe-guards system pump runout.

This item will remain open until the evaluation has been completed and Region II has reviewed the resolution.

3.

Performance of Sodium Thiosulfate-Reactor Building Spray System This item was identified in IE Report No. 50-302/75-8, Details II, paragraph 4, and subsequently discussed in IE Report No. 50-302/75-11, Details I, paragraph 6.

The drawdown test, a portion of which was observed by the inspector, has been completed.

The borated water storage tank, the sodium thiosulfate tank, and the sodium hydroxide tank were all filled with water and then pumped to the refueling canal using the engineered safeguards pumps.

A licensee representa-tive, stated that the results of the test were. being transmitted to the design engineer for evaluation.

FPC had not drawn any conclusions from the collected data according to the licensee representative.

This item will remain open until the results evaluation has been j

completed and IE, Region II has reviewed the resolution.

4.

_ Verification of Review and Approval of Category II Test Procedures This item was identified in IE Report No. 50-302/75-11, Details I, paragraph 7.

Nine of the category II tests selected on a sample basis still have not been approved.

This item will remain open v

until the selected procedures have been approved by the licensee

,

and reviewed by IE, Region II.

' Incorrect FSAR Drawings Chapter 6, page 6.1, of the FSAR states that figure 6-1 schematically

'

.

depicts the safeguard systems related to core and building protec-tion.

Figure 6.1 indicates that each loop of the low pressure

,

injection system contains a manually operated valve at the discharge of the decay heat exchanger.

Figure 9.6 of the FSAR, which in a

.

flow diagram of the decay heat system, indicates that these talves are motor operated. Visual inspection of the installed valves

.,

confirmed ~that they are motor operated.

A licensee representative stated that the site would recommend that figure 6.1 sad any other i

incorrect figures relating to the material of chapter 6 be updated

,

by amendment to the FSAR. This commitment was reaffirmed during the management interview, at which time the inspector stated

.

'

that this was designated unresolved item 75-13/1.

  • 6.

Turbine and Cenerator Trip from 100% Power In Chapter 13 of the FSAR, the' licensee has committed to performing a turbine and generator trip test at 100% power or as near as practical. Licensee management has not defined "as near as practical" l

or explained their intentions regarding performance of these tests.

This is designated unresolved item 75-13/2.

7.

Project Status The status of various plant activities was inspected in an effort to identify outstanding items that could have an affect on the issuance of an operating license.

The following information was obtained:

-

a.

Overall construction is approximately 95.5% complete.

.

b.

Construction is 100% complete for 8 of 58 systems.

c.

Average construction completeness for all systems is i

approximately 93%.

d.

46 of the 58 system have been turned over to the licensee i

testing group from the construction contractor.

e.

All systems that have been turned over have punchlist

Fuel Receipt and Storage A review was conducted of the fuel receipt and storage procedures and facilities to verify the requirements of 10 CFR Part 70 - Special Nuclear Material and the provisions of the licensee's Part 70 license SNM-1275 issued June 20, 1973, as amended.

The results of this review are indicated below.

a.

Fuel Storage The security measures to protect new fuel after it arrives at the plant site have not been developed to comply with the requirements of the Part 70 licensee.

An indepth inspection of the security provisions will be conducted during a subse-quent inspection.

Review of Preoperational Test Program A review was conducted of 68 of the approximately 325 Class I and

'

Class III test procedures to determine compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.68,' "Preoperational and Initial Startup Test Programs for

,

Water Cooled Power Reactors," and FSAR Section 13.2.5, " Test Pro-

,

cedure Development and Review." Tests were selected to be rep-resentative of the total scope of the test program.

For the

,

selected tests, it was verified that a proc 2 dure existed which was properly reviewed and approved by plant gersonnel. Approximately

,

one-third of the procedures selected have not yet been approved for

.

use. These procedures will be inspected when approved.

Review of Preoperational Test Results Evaluation

.

The inspector attempted to review selected procedures to assure; that the licensee was performing an adequate evaluation of test results; however, only 18 of the approximately 325 preoperational tests have been reviewed by the plant staff.

None of the proced-ures selected had yet been reviewed. This area will be referred to a subsequent inspection.
