REPORTABLE ACTION LEVEL -11.3.1 U Py #ii IC ANY EVENT THAT RESULTS OR SHOULD HAVE RESULTED IN ECCS DISCHARGE INTO THE RCS AS THE RESULT OF A VALID SIGNAL EXCEPT WHEN THE ACTION RESULTS FROM AND IS PART OF A PRE-PLANNED SEQUENCE DURING TESTING OR REACTOR OPERATION
[10CFR50.72(b)(2)(iv)(A)]
RAL Valid ECCS Actuation, Manual or Automatic, has or should have occurred AND ECCS Actuation results or should have resulted in discharge to the vessel AND Actuation is NOT part of a pre-planned sequence during testing or reactor operation.
OPERATIONAL CONDITION - All BASIS Those events that result in either automatic or manual actuation of ECCS or would have resulted in actuation of the ECCS if some component had not failed or an operator action had not been taken are reportable.
For example, if a valid ECCS signal was generated by plant conditions and the operator put all ECCS pumps in pull-to-lock position, although no ECCS discharge to the vessel occurred, the event is reportable.
A valid signal refers to an intentional manual actuation, unless it is part of a preplanned test, or actual plant conditions or parameters satisfying the requirements for ECCS initiation. Excluded from this reporting requirement would be those instances in which instruments drift, spurious signals, human error or other invalid signal causes action (e.g. jarring a cabinet, an error in the use of jumpers or lifted leads, error in actuation of controls or switches, or equipment failures).
Preplanned actuations are those which are expected to actually occur due to preplanned activities covered by procedures. Such actuations are those for which a procedural step or other Page 1 of 2 RAL- 11.3.1 Rev. 05
HCGS EAL/RAL Technical Basis appropriate documentation indicates the specific actuation is actually expected to occur. Control room personnel are aware of the specific signal generation before its occurrence or indication in the control room. Manual actuations as directed by abnormal or emergency operating procedures (i.e., not part of a preplanned test or operational evolution) are reportable.
IF the ECCS discharges or should have discharged into the RCS as result of an INVALID signal, THEN a report under this RAL is not required REFERENCES HCGS UFSAR 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(A) 10 CFR 50.73 NUREG-1022, Rev. 2, section 3.2.6 Page 2 of 2 RAL - 11.3.1 Rev. 05
HCGS EAL/RAL Technical Basis 11.0 Reportable Action Levels 11.3 System Actuations REPORTABLE ACTION LEVEL - 11.3.2 IC ACTUATION OF REACTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM WHEN CRITICAL EXCEPT PREPLANNED SEQUENCE [10CFR50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B)]
RAL Any event or condition that results in actuation of the Reactor Protection System (RPS) when the reactor is critical except when the actuation results from and is part of a preplanned sequence during testing or reactor operation OPERATIONAL CONDITION - 1, 2 BASIS An event involving a critical scram is reportable under RAL 11.3.2 unless it resulted from and was part of a pre-planned sequence. Manual RPS actuation in anticipation of receiving an "automaticRPS actuation is reportable.
Preplanned actuations are those which are expected to actually occur due to preplanned activities covered by procedures. Such actuations are those for which a procedural step or other appropriate documentation indicates the specific actuation is actually expected to occur. Control room personnel are aware of the specific signal generation before its occurrence or indication in the control room.

HCGS EAL/RAL Technical Basis 11.0 Reportable Action Levels 11.3 System Actuations REPORTABLE ACTION LEVEL - 11.3.3 IC VALID ACTUATION OF LISTED SYSTEM EXCEPT PREPLANNED
[10CFR50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A)]
RAL Any event or condition that results in valid actuation of any system listed in Technical Basis 11.3.3 except when the actuation results from and is part of a pre-planned sequence during testing or reactor operation.
OPERATIONAL CONDITION - All BASIS An eight hour report is required for a valid actuation of any of the systems named in 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(B) unless the actuation resulted from and was part of a pre-planned sequence during testing or reactor operation. Except for critical scrams (RAL 11.3.2), invalid actuations are not reportable by telephone under 10 CFR 50.72.
The system actuation flow chart provides guidance to determine reportability.

HCGS EAL/RAL Technical Basis NOTES
- 1. Systems for which this RAL applies are listed on page 4.
- 2. See page 4 for the list of reportable actuation signals (signals required for initiation of system safety function).
- 3. An ESF signal actuates equipment to mitigate the consequences of an accident, assure safe shutdown, minimize radioactive releases, etc. Process signals provided to protect equipment or as the result of good engineering judgment for system operating requirements (e.g., low flow starts, low suction pressure pump trips) are not ESF signals. If an actuation signal occurs, but distinction between "ESF" and "Process" cannot be determined immediately, the actuation is considered reportable. Retraction should be considered later, if necessary.
- 4. Valid actuations are those actuations that result from VALID SIGNALS or from intentional manual initiation, unless it is part of a preplanned test. Valid signals are those signals that are initiated in response to actual plant conditions or parameters satisfying the requirement for initiation of the safety function of the system.
An "actuation" is considered valid even if the resultant function (e.g., reactor SCRAM) has already been accomplished as a result of a prior actuation or a plant evolution, such as a routine shutdown.
- 5. Invalid actuations are by definition those that do not meet the criteria for being valid. Invalid actuations can include instrument drift, spurious signals, human error, jarring a cabinet, an error in the use ofjumpers or lifted leads, an error in the actuation of switches or controls, equipment failure, or radio frequency interference. Invalid actuations do not include actuations from the sensor by measurement of an actual physical system parameter that was at its setpoint.
- 6. Manual system actuation to mitigate the consequences of an accident, assuring safe shutdown of plant is reportable. Manual actuation as directed by normal operating or test procedures is not reportable. Manual actuations as directed by abnormal or emergency operating procedures (i.e., not part of a preplanned test or operational evolution) are reportable.
- 7. Preplanned actuations are those which are expected to actually occur due to preplanned activities covered by procedures. Such actuations are those for which a procedural step or other appropriate documentation indicates the specific actuation that is actually expected to occur. Control room personnel are aware of the specific signal generation before its occurrence or indication in the control room.
