A scram failure coupled with an MSIV isolation; however, results in rapid heatup of the Suppression Pool due to the steam discharged from the reactor vessel via SRVs.The challenge to containment thus becomes the limiting factor which defines the requirement for boron injection.

If Suppression Pool temperature and reactor pressure cannot be maintained below the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit, rapid depressurization of the reactor vessel will be required.To avoid depressurizing the reactor vessel with the reactor at power, it is desirable to shut down the reactor prior to reaching the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit, thus minimizing the quantity of heat rejected to the Suppression Pool.The Boron Injection Initiation Temperature is defined so as to achieve this when practicable.

    • STEPS RCtO-08 through RCtO-1 0 (continued)

The Boron Injection Initiation Temperature is defined to be the greater of: a.The Suppression Pool temperature at which initiation of a reactor scram is required by Technical Specifications, or b.The highest Suppression Pool temperature at which initiation of boron injection using SLC will result in injection of the Hot Shutdown Boron Weight of boron before Suppression Pool temperature exceeds the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit.Criterionb is a function of reactor power;a higher reactor power level causes higher integrated heat energy to be rejected to the Suppression Pool thus requiring a lower Suppression Pool temperature for initiation of boron injection if theHeatCapacity Temperature Limit is not to be exceeded before reactor shut down is achieved.At Brunswick, a single value is used for Boron Injection Initiation Temperature (110°F)for procedure simplification

  • STEP RC/Q-15 STEP BASES: Concurrent execution of this step with the remainder of this procedure optimizes efforts to achieve reactor shutdown.EOP-01-LEP-02 (Alternate Control Rod Insertion)

addresses alternate methods of control rod insertion.

Reactor shutdown on control rod insertion alone is preferable to injecting boron for the following reasons: a.Boron injection contaminates the primary system, requiring extensive cleanup and subsequent inspection before continued plant operation is possible.b.If a leak occurs below the elevation of the reactor water level being maintained, boron injection may not be successful in shutting down the reactor.c.A reactor shutdown on boron is not necessarily a stable condition; if boron is subsequently diluted or displaced by a leak or an operational error, the reactor could return to criticality.

Several alternate methods forinsertingcontrol rods are presented in EOP-01-LEP-02.

STEP BASES: Injection into the reactor vessel is terminated and prevented before Emergency Depressurization proceeds in order to prevent uncontrolled injection of large amount of cold water as reactor pressure decreases below the shutoff head of operating system pumps.Injection from boron injection systems and CRD is not terminated because operation of these systems may be needed to establish and maintain reactor shutdown.Further, the injection flow rates from these systems are small compared to those of the other systems used to control reactor water level.Injection from RCIC is not terminated because the injection flow rate from this system is small, continued operation of the turbine aids in depressuring the reactor vessel, and operation during reactor depressurization is not expected to result in significant injection flow rate variations.

Only when the listed systems have been terminated and prevented is emergency depressurization allowed.*1001-37.5 Rev.8 Page 66 of 90 I

the means for releasing the energy from the reactor vessel and the capacity of the heat sink utilized to absorb this energy.Depressurization of the reactor is most easily and rapidly performed by opening SRVs;thus instructions for operation of these valves are specified first, in preference to steps directing the use of other depressurization systems and mechanisms.

Of the SRVs, those dedicated to the ADS function are generally the most reliable because of their qualifications, pneumatic supply systems, the design and operation of initiation circuitry, or the availability of control power.Additionally, the relative location of their discharge devices uniformly distributes the heat load around the Suppression Pool.Concurrent opening of all ADS valves is within analyzed plant design limits.Other steps in the EOPs provide instructions for maintaining sufficient Suppression Pool heat capacity to accommodate simultaneous opening of all ADS valves at any reactor pressure.If one or more ADS valves cannot be opened, other SRVs are then opened to effect the desired reactor depressurization until the total number of open SRVs equals 7 (number of SRVs dedicated to ADS).If a non-ADS SRV is stuck open, 7 ADS valves should be opened, resulting in a total of 8 open SRVs.This provides the requisite depressurization rate without exceeding any design criteria.*1001-37.5 Rev.8 Page 67 of 90 I

    • STEPS RC/P-42 through RC/P-44 (continued)

An SRV opening sequence is not specified in this step because of the desire to reduce reactor pressure as rapidly as possible.If Suppression Pool water level is below the top of the SRV discharge devices (-8 feet), opening an SRV will cause direct pressurization of the Suppression Chamber airspace.Since the extent of this pressurization cannot be predicted and may exceed the pressure capability of the Primary Containment, such operation is prohibited.

Guidance is provided for reestablishing the continuous pneumatic supply to the SRVs be defeating the Group 10 isolation of the system.Step RC/P-44 lists SRVs B, E, F, and G since these are the only non-ADS SRVs.Brunswick has a total of 11 SRVs per unit, 7 of which are dedicated to ADS.*1001-37.5 Rev.8 Page 68 of 90 I

Emergency Depressurization places the primary system in its lowest possible energy state, rejects heat to the suppression pool in preference to outside the containment, and reduces the driving head and flow of primary systems that are unisolated and discharging into the Reactor Building.The criteria of more than one area specified in this step identifies the rise in reactor building parameters as a wide spread problem which may pose a direct and immediate threat to secondary containment integrity, equipment located in the Reactor Building, and continued safe operation of the plant.For high water level conditions, if a flooded area is not accessible, then the only indication that an area has reached it maximum safe operating water level is the RM FLOOD LEVEL HI-HI annunciators.

If more than one area has reached its HI-HI alarm point, then plant conditions have degraded to the point where Emergency Depressurization is needed.1001-37.9 Rev.0 Page 38 of 391 STEPS SCCP-25 and SCCP-26 (continuedl One parameter (e.g., temperature)

above its maximum safe operating value in one area and a different parameter (e.g., radiation or water level)above its maximum safe operating value in the sameoranother area is not a condition which requires Emergency Qepressurization.

A combination of parameters exceeding maximum safe operating values in one area does not necessarily indicate that control of a given parameter cannot be maintained or that previous actions have not been effective in confining the trouble to one area.Expanding the application of more than one area to encompass multiple parameters might lead to depressurization of the reactor when such action is not appropriate or needed.If the maximum safe operating radiation level is exceeded in an area (within the E/Q envelope)and then later clears, and is subsequently followed by another area exceeding maximum safe operating radiation level, action for one area exceeding maximum safe operating radiation level should be taken.If the maximum safe operating temperature is exceeded in an area and then later clears, and is subsequently followed by another area exceeding maximum safe operating temperature, action for two areas exceeding maximum safe operating temperature should be taken.If the maximum safe operating water level is exceeded in an area and then later clears, and is subsequently followed by another area exceeding maximum safe operating water level, action for two areas exceeding maximum safe operating water level should be taken.1001-37.9 Rev.0 Page 39 of 391
