Gasser Vyg....Electic Generatin Plant 91502-C 12 Date Approved ASSESSMENT Page Number 04/05/2002 C DAMAGE ASSESSMEN 1 of 16 PRB REVIEW REQUIRED 1.0 PURPOSE This procedure provides a method to classify and estimate the extent of core damage through containment high range radiation monitor indications, and core exit thermocouple temperatures together with additional auxiliary indicators.

2.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS It is anticipated that physical processes during accidents may cause a variety of accident scenarios, resulting in differing levels of contamination throughout the containment.

Containment High Range Radiation Monitors RE-005 and RE-006 view different areas and volumes of the containment. Figures 1 through 4 are intended to provide a realistic estimate of dose rate rather than bounding values. These results can be affected by:

  • Changes in the density of the containment atmosphere
  • Uncertainties in core inventory
  • Migration of fission products from the core to the containment
  • Fission product plateout during accident conditions
  • Fission product accumulation in operating equipment a Rain-out of fission products on floor areas vs. grating.

3.0 PREREQUISITES An emergency condition has been declared and core damage is suspected.

4.0 RESPONSIBILITIES 4.1 CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT 4.1.1 Chemistry personnel are responsible for post-accident sampling and analysis activities and transmitting data to the Engineering personnel coordinating core damage assessment activities.

4.2 OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT 4.2.1 Operations Department personnel are responsible for collecting, recording and transmitting to the TSC Engineering personnel coordinating damage assessment activities, data provided by Control Room instrumentation through implementation of Procedure 91503-C, "Control Room Instrumentation Output For Assessment Of Core Damage".

a. No generalized core damage is likely if the fuel assemblies have not been uncovered. If the RVLIS full range instrument indicates that the collapsed liquid level has never been below the top of the core and no core exit thermocouple temperatures corresponding to superheated steam at the corresponding RCS pressure were indicated, then no generalized core damage is probable.
b. If the core was uncovered, increases in the CVCS letdown monitor, containment atmosphere process radiation monitor, and the Containment Building area radiation monitors are evidence that some degree of fuel damage occurred.
c. The automated core damage spreadsheet may be used in lieu of the manual method when performing core damage assessment.

5.1.1 The TSC Engineering group may implement Procedure 91504-C, "Core Inventory Determinations Using Reactor Power History", if required by step 5.2.3.b or step 5.3.3.b.

5.1.2 The TSC Engineering personnel should request the Operations Department to implement Procedure 91503-C, "Control Room Instrumentation Output For Assessment Of Core Damage". The data may be available from the Integrated Plant Computer or the Status Loop and recorded on Data Sheet 1 of procedure 91503-C, "Control Room Instrumentation Output For Assessment Of Core Damage".

5.1.3 Obtain the maximum thermocouple temperature observed, maximum containment high range radiation monitor reading and time of readings, minimum RCS pressure, and containment spray status from Data Sheet 1 of Procedure 91503-C, "Control Room Instrumentation Output For Assessment Of Core Damage, and record on Data Sheet 1.

5.1.4 Determine the time lapse between core shutdown and the containment high range radiation monitor reading.

5.1.5 Using the data from step 5.1.3 and the time lapse from step 5.1.4, compare the data to the plant status in Table 1, "Preliminary Core Damage Assessment," and record the fuel rod fission product status on Data Sheet 1.

5.2.1.3 Calculate the thyroid dose rate in Worksheet 1.

5.2.2 Report the result obtained in Worksheet 1 to the Dose Assessment Manager. The results may be compared to the field monitoring dose rate calculated by the MIDAS program.

(FM Iodine Dose Rate Plot) 5.3 ANALYSIS OF FIELD MONITORING SAMPLES 5.3.1 Upon return of field teams to the vicinity of the EOF, the Dose Assessment Manager should ensure that the air and other samples (soil, vegetation and water) are collected for subsequent analysis.

5.3.2 Perform gamma spectroscopy analysis on the samples and record results.

5.3.3 Calculate the thyroid dose rate from the air sample results in accordance with Worksheet 1 by obtaining, from Chemistry, the isotopic concentration (gCi/cc) of each pertinent Iodine isotope from the gamma spectroscopy and multiplying it by the Dose Conversion Factor (mRem/hr/gCi/cc). To find the Thyroid CDE Dose Rate, simply add up the totals from the Base Rate Column (mRem/hr). Report the results to the Dose Assessment Manager. The results may be compared to the field monitoring dose rate calculated by the MIDAS program. (FM Iodine Dose Rate Plot).

a. When performing a back calculation, using field-monitoring data, the MIDAS software program assumes the dose rate is measured at the plume centerline. The centerline radiation levels should be measured and input into the MIDAS back calculation (using Figure 3), as directed by the dose assessment manager.
b. When performing a back calculation, using field-monitoring data readings from low-level radioactive plumes, a (3000 cpm/1.0 mR/hr) conversion factor will be used to convert count rate to dose rate.

5.4.1 Field monitoring measurements are important in determining the actual radiation levels in the environment. The dose assessment computer code provides only a rough approximation of radiation levels and location of the plume. The uncertainties in the source term and meteorological conditions in the affected areas are the chief contributors to the inaccuracies of projected dose and dose rate. There is no widely accepted formula on how to use field monitoring data to reduce the uncertainties and inaccuracies in the dose assessment computer code. The Dose Assessment Manager or HP Supervisor must exercise professional judgment in determining the proper correction factors.

5.4.2 The following are some examples of situations that require a back calculation to perform dose assessment:

a. Unmonitored releases (1). SGTR releasing out the ARV/Code Safeties/Terry Turbine where the RCS leak rate cannot be determined (section 5.5.1 .a).

(2) Accidents which involve a release from an onsite radioactive material shipment (i. e. transport vehicle with HIC).

(3) Release path effluent monitor (i. e. RE-12444, RE-12839, RE-16980) is out of service with a release in progress.

b. When requested by the Dose Assessment Manager.

a. Chemistry may not be able to obtain a RCS Total Gaseous Activity sample unless affected unit is at normal operating temperature and pressure.
b. Trend monitors RE-724 or RE-810 to determine RCS leak rate in gallons per day (GPD). GPD must be divided by 1440 minutes/day to obtain gallons per minute (GPM)
c. If the RCS leak rate is greater than or equal to 500 gallons per minute or cannot be determined due to plant conditions, then priorities should be to obtain field monitoring data for performing a back calculation (section 5.4).

5.5.1 A quick dose assessment for a SGTR/leak which results in a release to the environment may be performed using this section when the following conditions exist:

a. The RCS leak rate as a result of the rupture/leak is less than 500 GPM.
b. The release to the atmosphere is not monitored (i.e. Turbine Driven Aux. Feed water exhaust, ARV cycling or stuck open S/G Code Safety valve).

5.5.2 Using the most recent RCS chemistry sample, determine the Off Site Dose as follows:

RCS Total Gas Activity Above or Below Off Site Dose (11Ci/cc) ODCM Limits TEDE and Thyroid CDE

< 1.0 E-01 Below <.02 mRem

>1.0 E -01 but < 1.0 Above < 0.1 mRem

> 10 Above see 5.5.2.1 for ODA 5.5.2.1 If the RCS gaseous activity is greater than 10 micro curies per cc, a dose assessment should be performed as follows:

a. Using the MIDAS computer program, enter the RCS gaseous activity in micro curies per cc for monitor RE-12839C.
b. Determine the release rate in CFM by multiplying the RCS leak rate in GPM by 0.13, and enter this value for RE-12839 flow.
