Boration Systems Flow Paths - Operating 16.9-8 16.9 AUXILIARY SYSTEMS 16.9-8 Boration Systems Flow Paths - Operating COMMITMENT Two of the following three boron injection flow paths shall be OPERABLE:* I

a. The flow path from the boric acid tanks via a boric acid transfer pump and a charging pump to the Reactor Coolant System (RCS), and

b. Two flow paths from the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) via charging pumps to the RCS.

APPLICABILITY: MODES 1, 2, and 3, MODE 4 with all RCS cold leg temperatures > 285 0F.

REMEDIAL ACTIONS In MODE 4 during plant startup, the provisions of SLC 16.2.3 are not applicable for 15 minutes for the purpose of racking in or otherwise aligning the second of two charging pumps after increasing all four RCS cold leg temperatures > 2850 F.

AND (continued)

For each Unit, the completion Time that the Aboration system flow path can be inoperable, as specified by Required Action A.1 may be extended beyond the 72 hours8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months up to 168 hours0.00194 days 0.0467 hours 2.777778e-4 weeks 6.3924e-5 months as part of the NSWS system upgrades. System upgrades include maintenance and modification activities associated with replacement of portions of the train 'A NSWS piping via modification CE-71424. Upon completion of the pipe replacement and system restoration this footnote is no longer applicable.

met.

TESTING REQUIREMENTS TEST FREQUENCY TR 16.9-8-1 Verify that the temperature of the flow path from the 7 days boric acid tanks is > 650 F when it is a required water source.

TR 16.9-8-2 Verify that each manual, power operated, or automatic 31 days valve in the flow path, that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in the correct position.

TR 16.9-8-3 Verify, during shutdown, that each automatic valve in the 18 months flow path actuates to the correct position on a safety injection test signal.

TR 16.9-8-4 Verify that the flow path required by SLC 16.9-8a. 18 months delivers > 30 gpm to the RCS.

BASES The Boration System Flow Paths ensure that negative reactivity control is available during each MODE of facility operation. The components required to perform this function include separate flow paths and boric acid transfer pumps.

In MODES 1,2, and 3, and MODE 4 with all RCS cold leg temperatures above 2850F, a minimum of two boron injection flow paths are required to Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.9-8-2 Revision I

Boration Systems Flow Paths - Operating 16.9-8 BASES (continued) ensure single functional capability in the event an assumed failure renders one of the flow paths inoperable. The boration capability of either flow path, in association with a charging pump and borated water source, is sufficient to provide a SHUTDOWN MARGIN from expected operating conditions of 1.3%

Ak/k after xenon decay and cooldown to 2000F.

The exception to the provisions of SLC 16.2.3 for 15 minutes allows time for racking in or otherwise aligning the second of two charging pumps after increasing all four RCS cold leg temperatures above 2850F.
