MeeingObective Preview Salem Service Water Simplification Project Obtain NRC feedback Information necessary to support LCR LCR review schedule
- NG STATIONS
SW system design is complex
" Different flow rates for normal and LOCA conditions
" Multiple active components change state on accident signal
" Surveillance and maintenance requirements impact system availability Repeated LCO entries
" Unplanned LCOs (23 since 1/1/05)
" Frequent entries for de-silting Sa8J35 GENERATING STATIONS
Objectives Improve safety and reliability by simplifying design L Reduce number of components with active safety functions Reduce unplanned LCOs Approach
- Adopt lower required CFCU flow rate for LOCA conditions
- Containment re-analysis
- Implement fixed-resistance flow scheme
- Restriction orifices (passive) in lieu of modulating flow controls Li Eliminate accumulator tanks
- Transient hydraulic analyses and pipe support modifications S3IaI11kN EATIHG STATIONS

Anticipated Benefits Improved safety
" Fewer safety-related valves with active safety functions
- Reduced number of potential failure modes
- Improvement in LRF
" Reduced unplanned LCOs
- Main flow path and flow control: 16 LCOs since 1/1/05
- Tanks: 7 LCOs since 1/1/05 Recovery of system margin Improved industrial safety Reduced activities in containment at power
- Heat stress Improved reliability and availability
" Simplified system
" Reduced surveillances e Reduction in number of valves requiring surveillance testing
- Elimination of tanks wffi8Dý'GAEAIAGSAIN
Containment Re-analysis (WCAP 16503)
Available margin allows CFCU heat removal rate to be reduced Fixed-Resistance Flow Control (S.C.SW.MEE-1928)
Li Fixed-resistance flow scheme using orifices is feasible L Single flow rate of ~1500 gpm Elimination of CFCU Accumulator Tanks (MPR.2878)
NRC/Industry guidance for analytical approaches for GL 96-06 successfully applied at other sites Fixed-resistance scheme reduces severity of waterhammer for limiting case SaI8IJ GENdERATIIG STATIONS
