17. A note in EOP-8, LOCA Cooldown, states the following:

"Do not open PORV or use high pressure Aux spray to depressurize RCS if ICC

Region 3 was previously entered."

Which of the following describes the reason for this note?

.

.

A.

The RCS may contain large amounts of non-condensable gasses and

opening the PORV could result in additional gas bubbles forming in the

hot legs.

Due to documented PORV failures in the industry, the risk of losing

excess additional RCS inventory if the core had previously entered

Region 3 has been determined to be unacceptable.

Engineering calculations have determined that the effectiveness of high

pressure Aux spray is greatly diminished if the core had previously

entered Region 3 and does not create a success path for this condition.

A commitment to the NRC to justify not installing the RV head vent

requires the use of the hot leg high point vents only for RCS

depressurization.

reasonably achievable. Which of the following shows a radiation exposure that is

outside CR-3's administrative limits for a radiation worker with a current dose

history (NRC form 5 ) on file? (Note: This is the first exposure of the year for each

radiation worker).
