D. GeelapA-Leakage Reactor Coolant System (RCS)

1. RCS Operational Leakage The allowable leakage rates of coolant from the reactor coolant system have been based on the predicted and experimentally observed'behavior of cracks in pipes. The normally expected background leakage due to equipment design and the detection capability of the instrumentation for determining leakage was also considered. The evidence obtained from experiments suggests that for leakage somewhat greater than that specified for unidentified leakage, the probability is small that the imperfection or crack associated with such leakage would grow rapidly. However, in all cases, if the leakage rates exceed the values specified or the leakage is located and known to be Pressure Boundary Leakage and they cannot be reduced within the allowed times, the reactor will be shutdown to allow further investigation and corrective action.

The low limit on increase in unidentified leakage assumes a failure mechanism of Intergranular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC) that produces tight cracks. This flow increase limit is capable of providing an early warning of such deterioration.

No applicable safety analysis assumes the total leakage limit. The total leakage limit considers RCS inventory makeup capability and drywell sump capacity. Drywell Equipment Drain Sump instrumentation is required to support verification of the Total Leakage limit.

With RCS unidentified or total leakage greater than the limits, actions must be taken to reduce the leak. Because the leakage limits are conservatively below the leakage that would constitute a critical crack size, 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is allowed to reduce the leakage rates before the reactor must be shut down. If unidentified leakage has been identified and quantified, it may be reclassified and considered as identified leakage; however, the total leakage limit would remain unchanged.

An unidentified leakage increase of > 2 gpm within a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> period is an indication of a potential flaw in the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary (RCPB) and must be quickly evaluated. The increase does not necessarily violate the absolute unidentified leakage limit, therefore, an option exists to allow continued reactor operation if certain susceptible components are determined not to be the source of the leakage increase within the required completion time. For an unidentified leakage increase greater than required limits, an alternative to reducing leakage increase to within limits (i.e., reducing the leakage rate such that the current rate is less than the "2'gpm increase in the previous 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />" limit; either by isolating the source or other possible methods) is to evaluate service sensitive type 304 and type 316 austentic stainless steel piping that is subject to high stress or that contains relatively stagnant or intermittent flow fluids and determine it is not the source of the increased leakage. This type of piping is very susceptible to IGSCC. Note also that once leakage is attributed to a specific source, that leakage can be considered to be identified and can be applied against the identified limit, rather than the unidentified limit. The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> completion time is reasonable to properly reduce the unidentified leakage increase or verify the source before the reactor must be shut down without unduly jeopardizing plant safety.

The Surveillance Requirement (SR) associated with RCS leakage is acceptable because RCS leakage is monitored by a variety of instruments designed to provide alarms when leakage is indicated and to quantify the various types of leakage. Sump level and flow rate are typically monitored to determine actual leakage rates; however, other methods may be used to verify leakage. It is permissible to use pre-existing information, in conjunction with secondary measurements (e.g., Drywell pressure and temperature), to verify that leakage remains within limits by looking for step changes in conditions or to perform calculations to estimate leakage. The complete failure to demonstrate that RCS leakage is within limits, on the required frequency, constitutes a failure to meet this SR, notwithstanding entrance into conditions and required actions of TS 3.6.D.2.

3.6/4.6 BASES 150 06/11/02 Amendment No. 11, 30, 100, 102,4128

Bases 3.6/4.6 (Continued):

2. RCS Leakage Detection Instrumentation Two leakage collection sumps are provided inside primary containment. Identified leakage is piped from the recirculation pump seals, valve stem leak-offs, reactor vessel flange leak-off, bulkhead and bellows drains, and vent cooler drains to the drywell equipment drain sump. All other leakage is collected in the drywell floor drain sump. Both sumps are equipped with level and flow transmitters connected to recorders in the control room. The Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System instrumentation consists of one floor drain sump flow integrator, one sump level recorder and one sump fill rate computer point (rate of change). The Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System is operable when any one of these three channels is operable. An annunciator and computer alarm are provided in the control room to alert operators when allowable leak rates are approached.

Drywell airborne particulate radioactivity is continuously monitored as well as drywell atmospheric temperature and pressure. The drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system monitors the drywell for airborne particulate radioactivity. A sudden increase in radioactivity may be attributed to RCPB steam or reactor water leakage. The drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system is not capable of quantifying leakage rates, but is sensitive enough to indicate increased leakage rates. The drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system provides a backup to the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System and is capable of monitoring leakage at least as low as 10-9 iCi/cc radioactivity for air particulate monitoring. Systems connected to the reactor coolant systems boundary are also monitored for leakage by the Process Liquid Radiation Monitoring System.

The Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System is required to quantify the unidentified leakage from the RCS. Thus, for the system to be considered operable, either the flow monitoring or the sump level monitoring portion of the system must be operable. Any failure of a sump monitoring subsystem should be evaluated for its impact on the ability of the associated instrumentation to measure leakage.

Since the flow integrator for each sump is not directly tied to the sump for its input signals, they are not affected in the same way as other instrumentation. However, the loss of flow through the flow integrator prevents the flow integrator from performing its intended safety function of measuring leakage, and even though ifs associated SRs continue to be met, it should be declared inoperable.

It should be noted that system isolation in response to Required Actions of LCO 3.7.D.2, would not render these instruments inoperable, provided the system could be unisolated as allowed by the footnote of LCO 3.7.0.2, as manual operation is allowed.

The total loss of the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System results from the loss of all flow and level instrumentation (either directly or indirectly).

An alternate to the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System is the drywell equipment drain sump system. Because of the physical size of the sumps, it is possible through detection or calculation to verify the required leakage limit (5 gpm) and rate limit (2 gpm/24 hrs) during the period of time it takes to actually overflow from one sump to the other. Once the drywell floor drain sump is overflowing to the drywell equipment drain sump, the drywell equipment drain sump system can be used to quantify leakage. However, the alarm settings for the equipment drain sump instruments must be reset to detect the lower limit for unidentified leakage. In this condition, all additional leakage measured by the drywell equipment drain sump system is assumed to be unidentified leakage unless the leakage has been identified and 3.6/4.6 BASES 151 6/614/40-Amendment No. 30, 76,93,10-a+428

quantified. The opposite situation is also allowed, where the equipment drain sump is allowed to overflow into the floor drain sump. In this configuration, the alarm settings need not be reset, as they would conservatively quantify all additional leakage as unidentified, unless the leakage has been identified and quantified, and alarm at the appropriate limit. The other monitoring systems provide additional indication to the operators so closer examination of other detection systems will be made to determine the extent of any corrective action that may be required. With the leakage detection systems inoperable, monitoring for leakage is degraded.

With the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System inoperable, no other form of sampling can provide the equivalent information to quantify unidentified leakage. However, the drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system will provide indication of changes in leakage.

With the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System inoperable, operation may continue for 30 days. The 30 days is acceptable, based on operating experience, considering other methods of detecting leakage are available. The action requirements are modified by a footnote that allows a Mode change when the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System is inoperable. This allowance is provided because other instrumentation is available to monitor RCS leakage.

With the drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system inoperable, operation may continue as long as grab samples are taken every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> to analyze the drywell atmosphere. The action requirements are modified by a footnote that allows a Mode change when the drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system is inoperable. This allowance is provided because other instrumentation is available to monitor RCS leakage.

With the required leakage detection instrumentation inoperable, no means of detecting leakage is available. This condition does not provide the required means of leakage detection. The required action is to restore one channel of the inoperable monitoring systems (Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System or drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system) to operable status within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> to regain the intended leakage detection capability. The 1-hour completion time ensures that the plant will not be operated in a degraded configuration for a lengthy time period.

The sensitivity of the sump leakage detection systems for detection of leak rate changes is better than one gpm in a one hour period.

Other leakage detection methods provide warning of abnormal leakage and are not directly calibrated to provide leak rate measurements.

E. Safety/Relief Valves The reactor coolant system safety/relief valves assure that the reactor coolant system pressure safety limit is never reached. In compliance with Section IlIl of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, 1965 Edition, the safety/relief valves must be set to open at a pressure no higher than 105 percent of design pressure, with at least one safety/relief valve set to open at a pressure no greater than design pressure, and they must limit the reactor pressure to no more than 110 percent of design pressure. The safety/relief valves are sized according to the Code for a condition of MSIV closure while operating at 1775 MWt, followed by no MSIV closure scram but scram from an indirect (high flux) means. With the safety/relief valves set as specified herein, the maximum vessel pressure remains below the 1375 psig ASME Code limit. Only five of the eight valves are assumed to be operable in this analysis and the valves are assumed to open at 3% above their setpoint of 1109 psig with a 0.4 second delay. The upper limit on safety/relief valve 3.6/4.6 BASES 152 Amendment No.

Bases 3.6/4.6 (Continued):

setpoint is established by the operating limit of the HPCI and RCIC systems of 1120 psig. The design capability of the HPCI and RCIC systems has been conservatively demonstrated to be acceptable at pressures 3% greater than the safety/relief valve setpoint of 1109 psig.

HPCI and RCIC pressures required for system operation are limited by the Low-Low Set SRV System to well below these values.

The safety/relief valves have two functions; 1) over-pressure relief (self-actuation by high pressure), and 2) Depressurization/ Pressure Control (using air actuators to open the valves via ADS, Low-Low Set system, or manual operation).

The safety function is performed by the same safety/relief valve with self-actuated integral bellows and pilot valve causing main valve operation. Article 9, Section N-911.4(a)(4) of the ASME Pressure Vessel Code Section III Nuclear Vessels (1965 and 1968 editions) requires that these bellows be monitored for failure since this would defeat the safety function of the safety/relief valve.

Low-Low Set Logic has been provided on three non-Automatic Pressure Relief System valves. This logic is discussed in detail in the Section 3.2 Bases.

This logic, through pressure sensing instrumentation, reducesthe opening setpoint and increases the blowdown range of the three selected valves following a scram to eliminate the discharge line water leg clearing loads resulting from multiple valve openings.

Testing of the safety/relief valves in accordance with ANSI/ASME OM-1 -1981 each refueling outage ensures that any valve deterioration is detected. An as-found tolerance value of 3% for safety/relief valve setpoints is specified in ANSI/ASME OM-1-1981. Analyses have been performed with the valves assumed to open at 3% above their setpoint of 1109 psig. The 1375 psig Code limit is not exceeded in any case. When the setpoint is being bench checked, it is prudent to disassemble one of the safety/relief valves to examine for crud buildup, bending of certain actuator members or other signs of possible deterioration.

Provision also has been made to detect failure of the bellows monitoring system. Testing of this system once per cycle provides assurance of bellows integrity.

The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> completion time is reasonable considering the time required to isolate the penetration and the relative importance of supporting primary containment. The 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> completion time for MSIVs allows a period of time to restore the MVISIVs to operable status given the fact that MSIV closure will result in a potential for plant shutdown. The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> completion time for EFCVs is reasonable considering the instrument and the small diameter of the penetration piping combined with the ability of the penetration to act as an isolation boundary. With one or more penetrations with two PCIVs inoperable, either the inoperable PCIVs must be returned to operable status or the affected penetration flow path must be isolated within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.

Specification 3.7.D.3 requires the containment to be purged and vented through the standby gas treatment system except during inerting and deinerting operations. This provides for iodine and particulate removal from the containment atmosphere.

Use of the 2-inch flow path prevents damage to the standby gas treatment system in the event of a loss of coolant accident during purging or venting. Use of the reactor building plenum and vent flow path for inerting and deinerting operations permits the control room operators to monitor the activity level of the resulting effluent by use of the Reactor Building Vent Wide Range Gas Monitors.

E. Combustible Gas Control System The function of the Combustible Gas Control System (CGCS) is to maintain oxygen concentrations in the post-accident containment atmosphere below combustible concentrations. Oxygen may be generated in the hours following a loss of coolant accident from radiolysis of reactor coolant.

The Technical Specifications limit oxygen concentrations during operation to less than four percent by volume during operation.

The maintenance of an inert atmosphere during operation precludes the build-up of a combustible mixture due to a fuel metal-water reaction. The other potential mechanism for generation of combustible mixtures is radiolysis of coolant which has been found to be small.

A special report is required to be submitted to the Commission to outline CGCS equipment failures and corrective actions to be taken if inoperability of one train exceeds thirty days. In addition, if both trains are inoperable for more than 30 days, the plant is required to shutdown until repairs can be made.

I The alternate shutdown system panel is provided to assure the capability of achieving cold shutdown, external to the control room, in the unlikely event the control room becomes uninhabitable or safe shutdown equipment in the control room or cable spreading room is damaged by fire. Control of those systems on the alternate shutdown system panel is taken when the locking master transfer switch is moved from the normal to the transfer position and each system's individual transfer switch is put in the transfer mode. When control is established at the alternate shutdown system panel no control of those systems is available from the control room and all automatic initiation signals have been disabled. The master transfer switch shall remain in the locked position at all times when not in use, being tested or being maintained. If the master transfer switch is moved to the transfer position there is an alarm in the control room.

Reactor Coolant System (RCS)

1. RCS Operational Leakage The allowable leakage rates of coolant from the reactor coolant system have been based on the predicted and experimentally observed behavior of cracks in pipes. The normally expected background leakage due to equipment design and the detection capability of the instrumentation for determining leakage was also considered. The evidence obtained from experiments suggests that for leakage somewhat greater than that specified for unidentified leakage,.the probability is small that the imperfection or crack associated with such leakage would grow rapidly. However, in all cases, if the leakage rates exceed the values specified or the leakage is located and known to be Pressure Boundary Leakage and they cannot be reduced within the allowed times, the reactor will be shutdown to allow further investigation and corrective action.

The low limit on increase in Unidentified Leakage assumes a failure mechanism of Intergranular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC) that produces tight cracks. This flow increase limit is capable of providing an early warning of such deterioration.

No applicable safety analysis assumes the Total Leakage limit. The Total Leakage limit considers RCS inventory makeup capability and drywell sump capacity. Drywell Equipment Drain Sump instrumentation is required to support verification of the Total Leakage limit.

With RCS Unidentified or Total Leakage greater than the limits, actions must be taken to reduce the leak. Because the leakage limits are conservatively below the leakage that would constitute a critical crack size, 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is allowed to reduce the leakage rates before the reactor must be shut down. If Unidentified Leakage has been identified and quantified, it may be reclassified and considered as Identified Leakage; however, the Total Leakage limit would remain unchanged.

An Unidentified Leakage increase of > 2 gpm within a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> period is an indication of a potential flaw in the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary (RCPB) and must be quickly evaluated. The increase does not necessarily violate the absolute Unidentified Leakage limit, therefore, an option exists to allow continued reactor operation if certain susceptible components are determined not to be the source of the leakage increase within the required completion time. For an Unidentified Leakage increase greater than required limits, an alternative to reducing leakage increase to within limits (i.e., reducing the leakage rate such that the current rate is less than the "2 gpm increase in the previous 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />" limit; either by isolating the source or other possible methods) is to evaluate service sensitive type 304 and type 316 austenitic stainless steel piping that is subject to high stress or 3.6/4.6 BASES 150 10/09/03 Amendment No. 14, 30,100,102,128, 137a

Bases 3.6/4.6 (Continued):

that contains relatively stagnant or intermittent flow fluids and determine it is not the source of the increased leakage. This type of piping is very susceptible to IGSCC. Note also that once leakage is attributed to a specific source, that leakage can be considered to be identified and can be applied against the identified limit, rather than the unidentified limit. The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> completion time is reasonable to properly reduce the Unidentified Leakage increase or verify the source before the reactor must be shut down without unduly jeopardizing plant safety.

The Surveillance Requirement (SR) associated with RCS leakage is acceptable because RCS leakage is monitored by a variety of instruments designed to provide alarms when leakage is indicated and to quantify the various types of leakage. Sump level and flow rate are typically monitored to determine actual leakage rates; however, other methods may be used to verify leakage.

It is permissible to use pre-existing information, in conjunction with secondary measurements (e.g., drywell pressure and temperature), to verify that leakage remains within limits by looking for step changes in conditions or to perform calculations to estimate leakage.

Identified leakage is piped from the recirculation pump seals, valve stem leak-offs, reactor vessel flange leak-off, bulkhead and bellows drains, and vent cooler drains to the drywell equipment drain sump.

The drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system is not capable of quantifying leakage rates, but is sensitive enough to indicate increased leakage rates. The drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system provides a backup to the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System and is capable of monitoring leakage at least as low as 10-9 oCi/cc radioactivity for air particulate monitoring. Systems connected to the reactor coolant systems boundary are also monitored for leakage by the Process Liquid Radiation Monitoring System.

3.6/4.6 BASES 151 10/09/03 Amendment No. 30, 76, 93, 100a, 114, 128, 137a

Bases 3.6/4.6 (Continued):

The Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System is required to quantify the unidentified leakage from the RCS. Thus, for the system to be considered operable, either the flow monitoring or the sump level monitoring portion of the system must be operable. Any failure of a sump monitoring system should be evaluated for its impact on the ability of the associated instrumentation to measure leakage.

Since the flow integrator for each sump is not directly tied to the sump for its input signals, they are not affected in the same way as other instrumentation. However, the loss of flow through the flow integrator prevents the flow integrator from performing its intended safety function of measuring leakage, and even though its associated SRs continue to be met, it should be declared inoperable.

It should be noted that system isolation in response to Required Actions of LCO 3.7.D.2, would not render these instruments inoperable, provided the system could be unisolated as allowed by the footnote of LCO 3.7.D.2, as manual operation is allowed.

The total loss of the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System results from the loss of all flow and level instrumentation (either directly or indirectly).

An alternate to the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System is the drywell equipment drain sump system. Because of the physical size of the sumps, it is possible through detection or calculation to verify the required leakage limit (5 gpm) and rate limit (2 gpm/24 hours) during the period of time it takes to actually overflow from one sump to the other. Once the drywell floor drain sump is overflowing to the drywell equipment drain sump, the drywell equipment drain sump system can be used to quantify leakage. However, the alarm settings for the equipment drain sump instruments must be reset to detect the lower limit for unidentified leakage. In this condition, all additional leakage measured by the drywell equipment drain sump system is assumed to be Unidentified Leakage unless the leakage has been identified and quantified. The opposite situation is also allowed, where the equipment drain sump is allowed to overflow into the floor drain sump. In this configuration, the alarm settings need not be reset, as they would conservatively quantify all additional leakage as unidentified, unless the leakage has been identified and quantified, and alarm at the appropriate limit. The other monitoring systems provide additional indication to the operators so closer examination of other detection systems will be made to determine the extent of any corrective action that may be required. The drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system provides a backup system to the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System. With the leakage detection systems inoperable, monitoring for leakage is degraded.

With the Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System inoperable, no other form of sampling can provide the equivalent information to quantify Unidentified Leakage. However, the drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system will provide indication of changes in leakage.

The required action is to restore one channel of the inoperable monitoring systems (Drywell Floor Drain Sump Monitoring System or drywell particulate radioactivity monitoring system) to operable status within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> to regain the intended leakage detection capability. The 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> completion time ensures that the plant will not be operated in a degraded configuration for a lengthy time period.

The sensitivity of the sump leakage detection systems for detection of leak rate changes is better than one gpm in a one hour period. Other leakage detection methods provide warning of abnormal leakage and are not directly calibrated to provide leak rate measurements.

Safety/Relief Valves The reactor coolant system safety/relief valves assure that the reactor coolant system pressure safety limit is never reached. In compliance with Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, 1965 Edition, the safety/relief valves must be set to open at a pressure no higher than 105 percent of design pressure, with at least one safety/relief valve set to open at a pressure no greater than design pressure, and they must limit the reactor pressure to no more than 110 percent of design pressure. The safety/relief valves are sized according to the Code for a condition of MSIV closure while operating at 1775 MWt, followed by no MSIV closure scram but scram from an indirect (high flux) means. With the safety/relief valves set as specified herein, the maximum vessel pressure remains below the 1375 psig ASME Code limit. Only five of the eight valves are assumed to be operable in this analysis and the valves are assumed to open at 3% above their setpoint of 1109 psig with a 0.4 second delay. The upper limit on safety/relief 3.6/4.6 BASES 1 52a 10/09/03 Amendment No. 137a l

Bases 3.6/4.6 (Continued):

valve setpoint is established by the operating limit of the HPCI and RCIC systems of 1120 psig. The design capability of the HPCI and RCIC systems has been conservatively demonstrated to be acceptable at pressures 3% greater than the safety/relief valve setpoint of 1109 psig. HPCI and RCIC pressures required for system operation are limited by the Low-Low Set SRV System to well below these values.

The safety/relief valves have two functions; 1) over-pressure relief (self-actuation by high pressure), and 2) Depressurization/

Pressure Control (using air actuators to open the valves via ADS, Low-Low Set system, or manual operation).

The safety function is performed by the same safety/relief valve with selfoactuated integral bellows and pilot valve causing main valve operation. Article 9, Section N-911.4(a)(4) of the ASME Pressure Vessel Code Section III Nuclear Vessels (1965 and 1968 editions) requires that these bellows 'be monitored for failure since this would defeat the safety function of the safety/relief valve.

Low-Low Set Logic has been provided on three non-Automatic Pressure Relief System valves. This logic is discussed in detail in the Section 3.2 Bases. This logic, through pressure sensing instrumentation, reduces the opening setpoint and increases the blowdown range of the three selected valves following a scram to eliminate the discharge line water leg clearing loads resulting from multiple valve openings.

Testing of the safety/relief valves in accordance with ANSI/ASME OM-1 -1981 each refueling outage ensures that any valve deterioration is detected. An as-found tolerance value of 3% for safety/relief valve setpoints is specified in ANSI/ASME OM-1 -1981.

Analyses have been performed with the valves assumed to open at 3% above their setpoint of 1109 psig. The 1375 psig Code limit is not exceeded in any case. When the setpoint is being bench checked, it is prudent to disassemble one of the safety/relief valves to examine for crud buildup, bending of certain actuator members or other signs of possible deterioration.

Provision also has been made to detect failure of the bellows monitoring system. Testing of this system once per cycle provides assurance of bellows integrity.

With one or more penetration flow paths with one PCIV inoperable, the affected penetration must be returned to operable status or isolated within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> (8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> for MSIVs and 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> for Excess Flow Check Valves (EFCVs)). The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> completion time is reasonable considering the time required to isolate the penetration and the relative importance of supporting primary containment. The 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> completion time for MSIVs allows a period of time to restore the MSIVs to operable status given the fact that MSIV closure will result in a potential for plant shutdown. The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> completion time for EFCVs is reasonable considering the instrument and the small diameter of the penetration piping combined with the ability of the penetration to act as an isolation boundary. With one or more penetrations with two PCIVs inoperable, either the inoperable PCIVs must be returned to operable status or the affected penetration flow path must be isolated within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.

Specification 3.7.D.3 requires the containment to be purged and vented through the standby gas treatment system except during inerting and deinerting operations. This provides for iodine and particulate removal from the containment atmosphere.

Use of the 2-inch flow path prevents damage to the standby gas treatment system in the event of a loss of coolant accident during purging or venting. Use of the reactor building plenum and vent flow path for inerting and deinerting operations permits the control room operators to monitor the activity level of the resulting effluent by use of the Reactor Building Vent Wide Range Gas Monitors.

E. Combustible Gas Control System The function of the Combustible Gas Control System (CGCS) is to maintain oxygen concentrations in the post-accident containment atmosphere below combustible concentrations. Oxygen may be generated in the hours following a loss of coolant accident from radiolysis of reactor coolant.

The Technical Specifications limit oxygen concentrations during operation to. less than four percent by volume during operation.

The maintenance of an inert atmosphere during operation precludes the build-up of a combustible mixture due to a fuel metal-water reaction. The other potential mechanism for generation of combustible mixtures is radiolysis of coolant which has been found to be small.

A special report is required to be submitted to the Commission to outline CGCS equipment failures and corrective actions to be taken if inoperability of one train exceeds thirty days. In addition, if both trains are inoperable for more than 30 days, the plant is required to shutdown until repairs can be made.

3.7 BASES 182a 09/25/03 Amendment No. 4130-, 136a

Bases 3.13:

The alternate shutdown system panel is provided to assure the capability of achieving cold shutdown, external to the control room, in the unlikely event the control room becomes uninhabitable or safe shutdown equipment in the control room or cable spreading room is damaged by fire. Control of those systems on the alternate shutdown system panel is taken when the locking master transfer switch is moved from the normal to the transfer position and each system's individual transfer switch is put in the transfer mode. When control is established at the alternate shutdown system panel no control of those systems is available from the control room and all automatic initiation signals have been disabled. The master transfer switch shall remain in the locked position at all times when not in use, being tested or being maintained. If the master transfer switch is moved to the transfer position there is an alarm in the control room.

"System controls on the ASDS panel" refers to portions of control circuits and instrumentation necessary solely to support ASDS functions, including equipment not located within the ASDS panel. The ASDS LCO is entered for any of the following conditions:

1.

12 RHRSW pump inoperable.

2.

System controls on the ASDS panel inoperable.
