1. RAl-MF6683/4-STSB-01 The proposed change to both units' TS LCO 3.4.1.3 "RCS Loops - Hot Shutdown," adds an insertion in the LCO ACTION 'a' statement per TSTF-422. The insertion states:

"Initiate action to make at least one steam generator available for decay heat removal via natural circulation."

The approved TSTF-422 change for the LCO also requires that the above Action must be initiated "immediately." The proposed change does not specify such Completion Time requirement. Please revise the change per the approved TSTF, or provide justification for the change as proposed in the application.

FPL Response FPL revised the Action in TS 3.4.1.3 for St. Lucie Units 1 & 2 to specify an immediate Completion Time. This change is included in the attachments to this enclosure containing revised TS markups and revised (clean) TS pages.

2. RAI-MF6683/4-STSB-02 The Staff's review finds that TS changes proposed in the LAR reflect changes to pages affected by recent Unit 1 Amendment 227 and Unit 2 Amendment 177. The following marked-up TS pages included in the TSTF-422 LAR were changed after August 31, 2015, LAR issued date:
  • Unit 1 TS pages 3/4 7-20 and 3/4 7-20a
  • Unit 2 TS page 3/4 7-17 For example, the current TS LCO page 3/4 7-20 was updated by amendment 227, whereas the submitted TS mark-up page shows amendment# 206. As a result, the proposed TS mark-up to LCO 3.7.7.1, Action 'e' is now specified as Action 'g' in the current TSs. To ensure an accurate staff safety evaluation, please provide TS change pages that reflect the current St. Lucie TSs.

FPL Response FPL updated the TS markups and revised (clean) TS pages based on the currently approved version of the TS. The updated pages are provided in the attachments. to this enclosure, which contain revised TS markups and clean TS pages.

St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 Enclosure to L-2016-084 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Page 3 of 4

3. RAl-MF6683/4-STSB-03 Section 5.0 of the safety evaluation (SE) (ADAMS Accession No. ML011980047) for Topical Report CE NPSD-1186, REV. 00, provides justification for the approved end-states related changes for the Combustion Engineering (CE) units standard technical specifications (STS).

The application states that the PSL Units 1 and 2 TSs have not been converted to the Standard TS (STS) of NUREG-1432, "Standard Technical Specifications - Combustion Engineering Plants," (on which TSTF-422, Revision 2 is based).

Since, the subject TSs have not been converted to the STS, the Staff requests the licensee to review the Staff's SE to determine whether St. Lucie's plant-specific systems, functions and nomenclature for the proposed changes, are equivalent to those addressed in the Staffs SE.

Please provide the results of that review, including a discussion of any differences. The application does not provide this level of detail.

FPL Response The St. Lucie license amendment request (LAR) to adopt TSTF-422 discusses that because the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS have not been converted to the standard TS, the layout of the TS when compared to TSTF-422 may differ significantly in format; however, the technical differences are minor. In addition, section 2.2 of the LAR identifies 15 differences between the St. Lucie TS and the standard TS. The discussion of each difference concludes that the difference does not invalidate the applicability of TSTF-422, Revision 2 and the model safety evaluation (SE) to the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS.

FPL compared the St. Lucie TS containing proposed changes to the corresponding TS in section 5.0 of the safety evaluation for Topical Report (TR) CE NPSD-1186-A, revision 00. The evaluation of each requested change in section 5.0 of the SE identified the plants for which the change is applicable. The changes proposed by FPL are consistent with the plant applicability included in the SE where the changes are applicable to all plants or the change is specifically applicable to St. Lucie. provides the results of the comparison of the St. Lucie TS systems and the TS systems evaluated in the SE for TR CE NPSD-1186-A. The review concludes that the St. Lucie TS systems containing proposed changes are equivalent to those systems included in the SE for the TR.

4. Additional Changes FPL is removing two proposed changes that were included in the LAR as discussed below.
1. TS Table 3.3-3, Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System Instrumentation Action 11 (Unit 1) and Action 15 (Unit 2) in Table 3.3-3 apply to Functional Unit 7, Auxiliary Feedwater (AFAS), in Modes 1, 2, and 3 with the manual (trip buttons) or automatic actuation logic inoperable. The LAR proposed modifying Action 11 (Unit 1) and Action 15 (Unit 2) with the statement: "LCO 3.0.4.a is not applicable when entering HOT SHUTDOWN."

St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 Enclosure to L-2016-084 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Page 4of4 FPL is removing this proposed change. Functional Unit 7 is applicable only in Modes 1, 2, and 3; therefore, the proposed change is not applicable to entering HOT SHUTDOWN (Mode 4). Further, TSTF-422 does not modify standard TS 3.3.5, ESFAS Logic and Manual Trip, to revise ~he end state for inoperable manual trip or automatic actuation logic associated with AFAS. Therefore, eliminating this change is consistent with TSTF-422.

The TS pages that are deleted from the LAR include Unit 1 page 3/4 3-13 and Unit 2 page 3/4 3-16. The Bases changes associated with these changes are also deleted.

2. TS Table 3.3-6, Radiation Monitoring Instrumentation Action 17 (Unit 1) and Action 26 (Unit 2) in Table 3.3-6 apply to Functional Unit 1.d, Area Monitors - Control Room Isolation, in all Modes. With less than the required nµmber of area monitors operable, Action 17 and Action 26 require action within one hour to initiate and maintain operation of the control room emergency ventilation system in the recirculation mode of operation. The LAR proposed modifying Actions 17 (Unit 1) and Action 26 (Unit 2) with the statement: "LCO 3.0.4.a is not applicable when entering HOT SHUTDOWN."

FPL is removing this proposed change. TS 3.3.8, Control Room Isolation Signal, Required Action (RA) A.1, in the standard TS addresses the condition in which the control room isolation radiation monitors are inoperable. The RA, which is similar to St.

Lucie Actions 17 and 26, directs placing the control room emergency air cleanup system in the emergency radiation protection mode within one hour. TSTF-422 did not modify RA A.1. On the other hand, RA B.2 was revised to require a plant shutdown to Mode 4 if RA A.1 was not met and to include the addition of a note prohibiting use of LCO 3.0.4.a when entering Mode 4. St. Lucie TS does not contain an action corresponding to RA B.2 in the standard TS; therefore, removing the proposed change maintains consistency with TSTF-422.

The TS pages that are deleted from the LAR include Unit 1 page 3/4 3-23 and Unit 2 page 3/4 3-27. The Bases changes associated with these changes are also deleted.

  • S stem SE for CE NPSD-1186: An RCS loop consists of a hot leg, SG, crossover pipe between the SG and an RCP, the RCP, and a cold leg. The operational meaning with respect to this TS is that water flows from the reactor vessel into a hot leg, either into a SG or a SOC system where it is cooled, and is returned to the reactor vessel via one or more cold legs. The flow rate must be sufficient to both cool the core and to ensure good boron mixing.

TS 3.4.1.3 TS 3.4.1.3 TS 3.4.6 Reactor Coolant Reactor Coolant RCS Loops Mode St. Lucie 1 & 2: The major components of the RCS are the reactor vessel; two parallel heat System System 4 transfer loops, each containing one steam generator and two reactor coolant pumps; a pressurizer Mode4 Mode4 connected to one of the reactor vessel outlet pipes, and associated piping.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie RCS is equivalent to that considered in the safety evaluation (SE) for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: Containment air locks provide a controlled personnel passage between outside and inside the containment building with two doors/door-seals in s_eries with a small compartment between the doors. When operable, only one door can be opened at a time, thus providing a continuous containment building pressure boundary. The two doors provide redundant closures.

TS 3.6.1.3 TS 3.6.1.3 TS 3.6.2 St. Lucie 1 & 2: Two personnel air locks are provided. These are welded steel assemblies with two Containment Air Containment Air Containment Air double gasketed doors in series. Provision is made to pressurize the space between the gaskets Locks Locks Locks for leak testing. The doors are mechanically interlocked to ensure that one door cannot be opened until the second door is sealed.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie air locks are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

Pressure Pressure Pressure Containment average air temperature is a parameter that must be less than or equal to 120°F in TS 3.6.1.5 TS 3.6.1.5 TS 3.6.5 Modes 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Containment Air Containment Air Containment Air Temperature Temperature Temperature CONCLUSION: As noted in the SE for CE NPSD-1186, this TS is aoolicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: For systems that communicate with the containment atmosphere, two redundant isolation valves are provided for each line that penetrates containment. For systems that do not communicate with the containment atmosphere, at least one isolation valve is provided for each line.

TS 3.6.3.1 TS 3.6.3 TS 3.6.3- St. Lucie 1 & 2: Lines which connect directly to the containment atmosphere and are not used to Containment Containment -Containment mitigate the effects of a LOCA are provided with two valves in series. Except for the shutdown Isolation Valves Isolation Valves Isolation Valves cooling lines, each line that penetrates the reactor containment and is neither part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary nor connected directly to the containment atmosphere has at least one containment isolation valve located outside the containment as close to the containment as practical.

CONCLUSION: The containment isolation schemes for St. Lucie are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is aoolicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The shield building is a concrete structure that surrounds the primary containment in some PWRs. Between the primary containment and the shield building inner wall is an annular space that collects containment leakage that may occur following an accident. Following TS 3.6.6.2 TS 3.6.6.2 TS 3.6.11 a LOCA, the shield building exhaust air cleanup system establishes a negative pressure in the Shield Building Shield Building Shield Building annulus between the shield building and the steel containment vessel. Filters in the system then control the release of radioactive contaminants to the environment.

An annular space of approximately four feet is provided between the containment vessel and the interior face of the concrete shield building. The design of the shield building provides for biological shielding, controlled release of the annulus atmosphere under accident conditions, and environmental protection of the containment vessel. The shield building ventilation system maintains a slight negative pressure in the shield building annulus following a loss of coolant accident (LOCA), mixes shield building in-leakage with the air in the annulus and with any leakage from the containment and discharges it through a filter train which includes charcoal adsorbers.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie shield building is equivalent to that considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. The SE for CE NPSD-1186 specifically identifies that this TS is applicable to St.

Lucie 1 & 2.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The CCW system provides cooling to critical components in the RCS and also provides heat removal capability for various plant safety systems, both at power and on SDC.

St. Lucie 1 & 2: The component cooling water system is designed to provide a heat sink for TS 3.7.7 auxiliary systems under normal operating and shutdown conditions and provide a heat sink for TS 3.7.3.1 TS 3.7.3 Component safety related components associated with reactor decay heat removal for safe shutdown or LOCA Component Component Cooling Water conditions.

Cooling Water Cooling Water System CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie component cooling water system is equivalent to that considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all CEOG Member PWRs except AN02.

TS 3.7.8 SE for CE NPSD-1186: This TS covers systems that provide a heat sink for the removal of Service Water process heat and operating heat from the safety-related components during a transient or design TS 3.7.4.1 TS 3.7.4 System/Salt Water basis accident. The SE contains a footnote that recognizes the terminology for cooling water Intake Cooling Intake Cooling Cooling systems varies among the CEOG plants.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie intake cooling water system is equivalent to the cooling water system considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The CREACLJS (Alternate designations include CREACS, CREVAS, CREVS, and CREAFS) consists of two independent, redundant trains that recirculate and filter the control room air. Each train consists of a prefilter and demisters(15}, a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter, an activated charcoal adsorber section for removal of gaseous activity (principally iodine), and a fan. Ductwork, valves or dampers, and instrumentation also form part of the system, as do demisters that remove water droplets from the air stream. A second bank of HEPA filters follows the adsorber section to collect.carbon fines and to backup the main HEPA filter bank if it fails.

TS 3.7.7 St. Lucie 1: The control room ventilation system consists of split system air conditioners (i.e., an TS 3.7.7.1 Control Room TS 3.7.11 indoor and outdoor section}, a ducted air intake and air distribution system, and a filter train with Control Room Emergency Control Room HEPA filters and charcoal absorbers with two redundant booster centrifugal fans. The Control Emergency Ventilation Emergency Air Room Ventilation System removes potentially radioactive particulates and iodine from the Control Ventilation System Cleanup System Room during the Post-LOCA operating mode using a HEPA filter, charcoal adsorber, and control System room emergency ventilation booster fans.

St. Lucie 2: The Control Room Emergency Cleanup System removes potentially radioactive particulates and iodine from the control room air during the post-LOCA operating mode. Each unit consists of a roughing filter, HEPA prefilter, charcoal adsorber, HEPA after filter and fan. The system operates along with the CRAC system post-LOCA to maintain a positive control room pressure. The systems contain three redundant air conditioning and two redundant air cleaning trains, with separate power supplied for each train.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie control room emerQencv ventilation systems are similar to the

L-2016-084 Enclosure Attachment 1 Page 6 of 7 Comparison of St. Lucie Technical Specifications (TS) Systems to those Considered in the NRC Safety Evaluation (SE) for Topical Report CE NPSD-1186, Revision 00 St. Lucie Unit 1 St. Lucie Unit 2 CE NPSD-1186 Comparison S stem S stem S stem CREACUS considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. (The St. Lucie Unit 1 system contains a single filter train.) As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The ECCS pump room exhaust air cleanup system (ECCS PREACS) and the ESF pump room exhaust air cleanup system (ESF PREACS) filters air from the area of active ESF components during the recirculation phase of a LOCA. This protects the public from TS 3.7.13 radiological exposure resulting from auxiliary building leaks in the ECCS system. The ECCS ECCS Pump Room PREACS consists of two independent, redundant equipment trains. A single train will maintain TS 3.7.8.1 TS 3.7.8 Exhaust Air room temperature within acceptable limits.

Cleanup System CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie ECCS area ventilation system is equivalent to that considered in th_e SE for CE NPSD-1186. As specifically noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to St. Lucie 1 & 2.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The unit Class 1E electrical power distribution system AC sources consist of the offsite power sources (preferred power sources, normal and alternate(s)), and the onsite standby power sources (Train A and Train B emergency diesel generators). In addition, many sites, including SONGS Units 2 and 3 and St. Lucie Units 1 and 2, provide a cross-tie capability between units.

TS 3.8.1.1 TS 3.8.1.1 TS 3.8.1 -AC St. Lucie 1 & 2: The normal source of auxiliary ac power for plant start-up or shutdown is from the AC Sources AC Sources Sources. Operating incoming off-site transmission lines through the plant switchyard and start-up transformers. In the event of a complete loss of the normal offsite ac power sources, station on-site emergency ac power system will be supplied by the on-site emergency diesel generators (EDGs) and station batteries. In the event that all offsite and onsite power sources fail, except for one Unit 2 EDG ,

power will be transferred from the only operating Unit 2 EDG to one of the Unit 1 4.16 KV Class 1E distribution buses via the station blackout cross-tie. In the event of a total loss of AC power, and a loss of one EDG on St. Lucie Unit 1, power can be provided to one of the Unit 2 Class 1E

The power will be transferred via a cross-tie connecting the safety-related swing switchgear of the two units.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie AC sources are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: _The DC electrical power system:

1. Provides normal and emergency DC electrical power for the AC emergency power system, emergency auxiliaries, and control and switching during all modes of operation,
2. Provides motive and control power to selected safety related equipment, and
3. Provides power to preferred AC vital buses (via inverters).

For CEOG Member PWRs (with the exception of San Onofre, Palo Verde, Calvert Cliffs, and Waterford), the Class 1E 125 VDC electrical power system consists of two independent and redundant safety related subsystems.

TS 3.8.2.3 TS 3.8.2.1 TS 3.8.4 St. Lucie 1 & 2: Power is provided at 125 volts de (ungrounded) for plant control and DC Distribution - DC Sources- DC Sources instrumentation and for operation of de motor operated equipment such as valve operators and Operating Operating Operating emergency lube oil pumps. As for the 4.16 kV and 480 volt ac emergency systems, the 125 volt de system is arranged into two main redundant load groups A and B and a third service or swing load group AB. Load groups A and B are each capable of supplying the minimum de power requirements to safely shut down the plant and/or mitigate the consequences of a LOCA.

Redundant 120 volt ac single phase instrument buses provide power to essential instrumentation.

Each bus is supplied separately from an inverter connected to one of the two Class 1E 125 volt de buses.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie DC sources are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is aoolicable to all plants.

In Reference 1, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) submitted a license amendment request (LAR) to revise the Technical Specifications (TS) for St. Lucie Units 1 & 2. The proposed amendment would modify the TS to risk-inform requirements regarding selected Required Action end states.

In Reference 2, the NRC staff requested additional information to complete its review of the LAR. The enclosure to this letter provides FPL's response to the request for additional information. In addition, as discussed in the enclosure, FPL is deleting several proposed changes that were included in Reference 1. The changes to the LAR included in this response do not alter the conclusion in Reference 1 that the changes do not present a significant hazards consideration.

St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 Enclosure to L-2016-084 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Page 2 of 4

1. RAl-MF6683/4-STSB-01 The proposed change to both units' TS LCO 3.4.1.3 "RCS Loops - Hot Shutdown," adds an insertion in the LCO ACTION 'a' statement per TSTF-422. The insertion states:

"Initiate action to make at least one steam generator available for decay heat removal via natural circulation."

The approved TSTF-422 change for the LCO also requires that the above Action must be initiated "immediately." The proposed change does not specify such Completion Time requirement. Please revise the change per the approved TSTF, or provide justification for the change as proposed in the application.

FPL Response FPL revised the Action in TS 3.4.1.3 for St. Lucie Units 1 & 2 to specify an immediate Completion Time. This change is included in the attachments to this enclosure containing revised TS markups and revised (clean) TS pages.

2. RAI-MF6683/4-STSB-02 The Staff's review finds that TS changes proposed in the LAR reflect changes to pages affected by recent Unit 1 Amendment 227 and Unit 2 Amendment 177. The following marked-up TS pages included in the TSTF-422 LAR were changed after August 31, 2015, LAR issued date:
  • Unit 1 TS pages 3/4 7-20 and 3/4 7-20a
  • Unit 2 TS page 3/4 7-17 For example, the current TS LCO page 3/4 7-20 was updated by amendment 227, whereas the submitted TS mark-up page shows amendment# 206. As a result, the proposed TS mark-up to LCO 3.7.7.1, Action 'e' is now specified as Action 'g' in the current TSs. To ensure an accurate staff safety evaluation, please provide TS change pages that reflect the current St. Lucie TSs.

FPL Response FPL updated the TS markups and revised (clean) TS pages based on the currently approved version of the TS. The updated pages are provided in the attachments. to this enclosure, which contain revised TS markups and clean TS pages.

St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 Enclosure to L-2016-084 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Page 3 of 4

3. RAl-MF6683/4-STSB-03 Section 5.0 of the safety evaluation (SE) (ADAMS Accession No. ML011980047) for Topical Report CE NPSD-1186, REV. 00, provides justification for the approved end-states related changes for the Combustion Engineering (CE) units standard technical specifications (STS).

The application states that the PSL Units 1 and 2 TSs have not been converted to the Standard TS (STS) of NUREG-1432, "Standard Technical Specifications - Combustion Engineering Plants," (on which TSTF-422, Revision 2 is based).

Since, the subject TSs have not been converted to the STS, the Staff requests the licensee to review the Staff's SE to determine whether St. Lucie's plant-specific systems, functions and nomenclature for the proposed changes, are equivalent to those addressed in the Staffs SE.

Please provide the results of that review, including a discussion of any differences. The application does not provide this level of detail.

FPL Response The St. Lucie license amendment request (LAR) to adopt TSTF-422 discusses that because the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS have not been converted to the standard TS, the layout of the TS when compared to TSTF-422 may differ significantly in format; however, the technical differences are minor. In addition, section 2.2 of the LAR identifies 15 differences between the St. Lucie TS and the standard TS. The discussion of each difference concludes that the difference does not invalidate the applicability of TSTF-422, Revision 2 and the model safety evaluation (SE) to the St. Lucie Unit 1 and Unit 2 TS.

FPL compared the St. Lucie TS containing proposed changes to the corresponding TS in section 5.0 of the safety evaluation for Topical Report (TR) CE NPSD-1186-A, revision 00. The evaluation of each requested change in section 5.0 of the SE identified the plants for which the change is applicable. The changes proposed by FPL are consistent with the plant applicability included in the SE where the changes are applicable to all plants or the change is specifically applicable to St. Lucie. provides the results of the comparison of the St. Lucie TS systems and the TS systems evaluated in the SE for TR CE NPSD-1186-A. The review concludes that the St. Lucie TS systems containing proposed changes are equivalent to those systems included in the SE for the TR.

4. Additional Changes FPL is removing two proposed changes that were included in the LAR as discussed below.
1. TS Table 3.3-3, Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System Instrumentation Action 11 (Unit 1) and Action 15 (Unit 2) in Table 3.3-3 apply to Functional Unit 7, Auxiliary Feedwater (AFAS), in Modes 1, 2, and 3 with the manual (trip buttons) or automatic actuation logic inoperable. The LAR proposed modifying Action 11 (Unit 1) and Action 15 (Unit 2) with the statement: "LCO 3.0.4.a is not applicable when entering HOT SHUTDOWN."

St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 Enclosure to L-2016-084 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 Page 4of4 FPL is removing this proposed change. Functional Unit 7 is applicable only in Modes 1, 2, and 3; therefore, the proposed change is not applicable to entering HOT SHUTDOWN (Mode 4). Further, TSTF-422 does not modify standard TS 3.3.5, ESFAS Logic and Manual Trip, to revise ~he end state for inoperable manual trip or automatic actuation logic associated with AFAS. Therefore, eliminating this change is consistent with TSTF-422.

The TS pages that are deleted from the LAR include Unit 1 page 3/4 3-13 and Unit 2 page 3/4 3-16. The Bases changes associated with these changes are also deleted.

2. TS Table 3.3-6, Radiation Monitoring Instrumentation Action 17 (Unit 1) and Action 26 (Unit 2) in Table 3.3-6 apply to Functional Unit 1.d, Area Monitors - Control Room Isolation, in all Modes. With less than the required nµmber of area monitors operable, Action 17 and Action 26 require action within one hour to initiate and maintain operation of the control room emergency ventilation system in the recirculation mode of operation. The LAR proposed modifying Actions 17 (Unit 1) and Action 26 (Unit 2) with the statement: "LCO 3.0.4.a is not applicable when entering HOT SHUTDOWN."

FPL is removing this proposed change. TS 3.3.8, Control Room Isolation Signal, Required Action (RA) A.1, in the standard TS addresses the condition in which the control room isolation radiation monitors are inoperable. The RA, which is similar to St.

Lucie Actions 17 and 26, directs placing the control room emergency air cleanup system in the emergency radiation protection mode within one hour. TSTF-422 did not modify RA A.1. On the other hand, RA B.2 was revised to require a plant shutdown to Mode 4 if RA A.1 was not met and to include the addition of a note prohibiting use of LCO 3.0.4.a when entering Mode 4. St. Lucie TS does not contain an action corresponding to RA B.2 in the standard TS; therefore, removing the proposed change maintains consistency with TSTF-422.

The TS pages that are deleted from the LAR include Unit 1 page 3/4 3-23 and Unit 2 page 3/4 3-27. The Bases changes associated with these changes are also deleted.

  • S stem SE for CE NPSD-1186: An RCS loop consists of a hot leg, SG, crossover pipe between the SG and an RCP, the RCP, and a cold leg. The operational meaning with respect to this TS is that water flows from the reactor vessel into a hot leg, either into a SG or a SOC system where it is cooled, and is returned to the reactor vessel via one or more cold legs. The flow rate must be sufficient to both cool the core and to ensure good boron mixing.

TS 3.4.1.3 TS 3.4.1.3 TS 3.4.6 Reactor Coolant Reactor Coolant RCS Loops Mode St. Lucie 1 & 2: The major components of the RCS are the reactor vessel; two parallel heat System System 4 transfer loops, each containing one steam generator and two reactor coolant pumps; a pressurizer Mode4 Mode4 connected to one of the reactor vessel outlet pipes, and associated piping.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie RCS is equivalent to that considered in the safety evaluation (SE) for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: Containment air locks provide a controlled personnel passage between outside and inside the containment building with two doors/door-seals in s_eries with a small compartment between the doors. When operable, only one door can be opened at a time, thus providing a continuous containment building pressure boundary. The two doors provide redundant closures.

TS 3.6.1.3 TS 3.6.1.3 TS 3.6.2 St. Lucie 1 & 2: Two personnel air locks are provided. These are welded steel assemblies with two Containment Air Containment Air Containment Air double gasketed doors in series. Provision is made to pressurize the space between the gaskets Locks Locks Locks for leak testing. The doors are mechanically interlocked to ensure that one door cannot be opened until the second door is sealed.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie air locks are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

Pressure Pressure Pressure Containment average air temperature is a parameter that must be less than or equal to 120°F in TS 3.6.1.5 TS 3.6.1.5 TS 3.6.5 Modes 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Containment Air Containment Air Containment Air Temperature Temperature Temperature CONCLUSION: As noted in the SE for CE NPSD-1186, this TS is aoolicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: For systems that communicate with the containment atmosphere, two redundant isolation valves are provided for each line that penetrates containment. For systems that do not communicate with the containment atmosphere, at least one isolation valve is provided for each line.

TS 3.6.3.1 TS 3.6.3 TS 3.6.3- St. Lucie 1 & 2: Lines which connect directly to the containment atmosphere and are not used to Containment Containment -Containment mitigate the effects of a LOCA are provided with two valves in series. Except for the shutdown Isolation Valves Isolation Valves Isolation Valves cooling lines, each line that penetrates the reactor containment and is neither part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary nor connected directly to the containment atmosphere has at least one containment isolation valve located outside the containment as close to the containment as practical.

CONCLUSION: The containment isolation schemes for St. Lucie are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is aoolicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The shield building is a concrete structure that surrounds the primary containment in some PWRs. Between the primary containment and the shield building inner wall is an annular space that collects containment leakage that may occur following an accident. Following TS 3.6.6.2 TS 3.6.6.2 TS 3.6.11 a LOCA, the shield building exhaust air cleanup system establishes a negative pressure in the Shield Building Shield Building Shield Building annulus between the shield building and the steel containment vessel. Filters in the system then control the release of radioactive contaminants to the environment.

An annular space of approximately four feet is provided between the containment vessel and the interior face of the concrete shield building. The design of the shield building provides for biological shielding, controlled release of the annulus atmosphere under accident conditions, and environmental protection of the containment vessel. The shield building ventilation system maintains a slight negative pressure in the shield building annulus following a loss of coolant accident (LOCA), mixes shield building in-leakage with the air in the annulus and with any leakage from the containment and discharges it through a filter train which includes charcoal adsorbers.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie shield building is equivalent to that considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. The SE for CE NPSD-1186 specifically identifies that this TS is applicable to St.

Lucie 1 & 2.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The CCW system provides cooling to critical components in the RCS and also provides heat removal capability for various plant safety systems, both at power and on SDC.

St. Lucie 1 & 2: The component cooling water system is designed to provide a heat sink for TS 3.7.7 auxiliary systems under normal operating and shutdown conditions and provide a heat sink for TS 3.7.3.1 TS 3.7.3 Component safety related components associated with reactor decay heat removal for safe shutdown or LOCA Component Component Cooling Water conditions.

Cooling Water Cooling Water System CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie component cooling water system is equivalent to that considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all CEOG Member PWRs except AN02.

TS 3.7.8 SE for CE NPSD-1186: This TS covers systems that provide a heat sink for the removal of Service Water process heat and operating heat from the safety-related components during a transient or design TS 3.7.4.1 TS 3.7.4 System/Salt Water basis accident. The SE contains a footnote that recognizes the terminology for cooling water Intake Cooling Intake Cooling Cooling systems varies among the CEOG plants.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie intake cooling water system is equivalent to the cooling water system considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The CREACLJS (Alternate designations include CREACS, CREVAS, CREVS, and CREAFS) consists of two independent, redundant trains that recirculate and filter the control room air. Each train consists of a prefilter and demisters(15}, a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter, an activated charcoal adsorber section for removal of gaseous activity (principally iodine), and a fan. Ductwork, valves or dampers, and instrumentation also form part of the system, as do demisters that remove water droplets from the air stream. A second bank of HEPA filters follows the adsorber section to collect.carbon fines and to backup the main HEPA filter bank if it fails.

TS 3.7.7 St. Lucie 1: The control room ventilation system consists of split system air conditioners (i.e., an TS 3.7.7.1 Control Room TS 3.7.11 indoor and outdoor section}, a ducted air intake and air distribution system, and a filter train with Control Room Emergency Control Room HEPA filters and charcoal absorbers with two redundant booster centrifugal fans. The Control Emergency Ventilation Emergency Air Room Ventilation System removes potentially radioactive particulates and iodine from the Control Ventilation System Cleanup System Room during the Post-LOCA operating mode using a HEPA filter, charcoal adsorber, and control System room emergency ventilation booster fans.

St. Lucie 2: The Control Room Emergency Cleanup System removes potentially radioactive particulates and iodine from the control room air during the post-LOCA operating mode. Each unit consists of a roughing filter, HEPA prefilter, charcoal adsorber, HEPA after filter and fan. The system operates along with the CRAC system post-LOCA to maintain a positive control room pressure. The systems contain three redundant air conditioning and two redundant air cleaning trains, with separate power supplied for each train.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie control room emerQencv ventilation systems are similar to the

L-2016-084 Enclosure Attachment 1 Page 6 of 7 Comparison of St. Lucie Technical Specifications (TS) Systems to those Considered in the NRC Safety Evaluation (SE) for Topical Report CE NPSD-1186, Revision 00 St. Lucie Unit 1 St. Lucie Unit 2 CE NPSD-1186 Comparison S stem S stem S stem CREACUS considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. (The St. Lucie Unit 1 system contains a single filter train.) As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The ECCS pump room exhaust air cleanup system (ECCS PREACS) and the ESF pump room exhaust air cleanup system (ESF PREACS) filters air from the area of active ESF components during the recirculation phase of a LOCA. This protects the public from TS 3.7.13 radiological exposure resulting from auxiliary building leaks in the ECCS system. The ECCS ECCS Pump Room PREACS consists of two independent, redundant equipment trains. A single train will maintain TS 3.7.8.1 TS 3.7.8 Exhaust Air room temperature within acceptable limits.

ECCS area ECCS area Cleanup System Ventilation Ventilation and ESF Pump St. Lucie 1 & 2: The emergency core cooling system (ECCS) area ventilation system is designed System System Room to provide post-LOCA filtration and adsorption of fission products in the exhaust air from certain Exhaust and areas of the reactor auxiliary building.

Cleanup System CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie ECCS area ventilation system is equivalent to that considered in th_e SE for CE NPSD-1186. As specifically noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to St. Lucie 1 & 2.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: The unit Class 1E electrical power distribution system AC sources consist of the offsite power sources (preferred power sources, normal and alternate(s)), and the onsite standby power sources (Train A and Train B emergency diesel generators). In addition, many sites, including SONGS Units 2 and 3 and St. Lucie Units 1 and 2, provide a cross-tie capability between units.

TS 3.8.1.1 TS 3.8.1.1 TS 3.8.1 -AC St. Lucie 1 & 2: The normal source of auxiliary ac power for plant start-up or shutdown is from the AC Sources AC Sources Sources. Operating incoming off-site transmission lines through the plant switchyard and start-up transformers. In the event of a complete loss of the normal offsite ac power sources, station on-site emergency ac power system will be supplied by the on-site emergency diesel generators (EDGs) and station batteries. In the event that all offsite and onsite power sources fail, except for one Unit 2 EDG ,

power will be transferred from the only operating Unit 2 EDG to one of the Unit 1 4.16 KV Class 1E distribution buses via the station blackout cross-tie. In the event of a total loss of AC power, and a loss of one EDG on St. Lucie Unit 1, power can be provided to one of the Unit 2 Class 1E

The power will be transferred via a cross-tie connecting the safety-related swing switchgear of the two units.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie AC sources are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is applicable to all plants.

SE for CE NPSD-1186: _The DC electrical power system:

1. Provides normal and emergency DC electrical power for the AC emergency power system, emergency auxiliaries, and control and switching during all modes of operation,
2. Provides motive and control power to selected safety related equipment, and
3. Provides power to preferred AC vital buses (via inverters).

For CEOG Member PWRs (with the exception of San Onofre, Palo Verde, Calvert Cliffs, and Waterford), the Class 1E 125 VDC electrical power system consists of two independent and redundant safety related subsystems.

TS 3.8.2.3 TS 3.8.2.1 TS 3.8.4 St. Lucie 1 & 2: Power is provided at 125 volts de (ungrounded) for plant control and DC Distribution - DC Sources- DC Sources instrumentation and for operation of de motor operated equipment such as valve operators and Operating Operating Operating emergency lube oil pumps. As for the 4.16 kV and 480 volt ac emergency systems, the 125 volt de system is arranged into two main redundant load groups A and B and a third service or swing load group AB. Load groups A and B are each capable of supplying the minimum de power requirements to safely shut down the plant and/or mitigate the consequences of a LOCA.

Redundant 120 volt ac single phase instrument buses provide power to essential instrumentation.

Each bus is supplied separately from an inverter connected to one of the two Class 1E 125 volt de buses.

CONCLUSION: The St. Lucie DC sources are equivalent to those considered in the SE for CE NPSD-1186. As noted in the SE, this TS is aoolicable to all plants.
