DAVIS-BESSE, UNIT 1 3/4 7-1 Amendment No. ;7,7f;, 153 Page 1 of 1 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 5 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 6 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.1, MAIN STEAM SAFETY VALVES (MSSVs)
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a states, in part, that when one or more MSSVs are inoperable, within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> restore the inoperable valve to OPERABLE status or reduce the High Flux Trip Setpoint in accordance with the requirements of Equation 3.7-1. ITS 3.7.1 ACTIONS Note states "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each MSSV." This changes the CTS by explicitly specifying separate condition entry for each inoperable MSSV.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a is to allow separate condition entry for each inoperable MSSV. Each time it is discovered that an MSSV is inoperable, entry is required and the Completion Time is allowed to complete the compensatory actions. The ITS 3.7.1 ACTIONS Note allows a separate Completion Time for each MSSV that is inoperable. This change is acceptable because it only provides clarification of the Completion Time when one valve is inoperable and, subsequently, a second valve becomes inoperable. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the Specifications.
A03 CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a states, in part, that with one or more MSSVs inoperable to either restore the inoperable valve to OPERABLE status or to take an alternate, compensatory measure. ITS 3.7.1 ACTION A does not include the restoration requirement, only the alternate compensatory measure is provided. This changes the CTS by eliminating the explicit statement to restore the inoperable MSSV to OPERABLE status.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. Restoration of compliance with the LCO is always an option in an Action, so eliminating the restoration Action from CTS has no effect.
It is the convention of the ITS to not state such "restore" options explicitly unless it is the only action or is required for clarity. In both the CTS and the ITS, if the inoperable MSSV is not restored, actions are taken that result in reducing reactor power to within the relief capability of the OPERABLE MSSVs within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.
This change is designated as administrative because it results in no technical change to the CTS.
A04 CTS 3.7.1.1 does not identify the OPERABILITY lift settings for the MSSVs nor the total number of required MSSVs. CTS 3.7.1.1 only states that all MSSVs shall be OPERABLE. ITS Table 3.7.1-1 identifies the total number of MSSVs, the lift setting for each of the MSSVs and that the lift settings for OPERABILITY are + 3% of the nominal lift setting. Furthermore, ITS SR 3.7.1.1 states that after Davis-Besse Page 1 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 6 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 7 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.1, MAIN STEAM SAFETY VALVES (MSSVs) testing, the lift setting shall be + 1%. This changes the CTS by clearly stating the required number of MSSVS and their OPERABILITY lift settings.
The as-found lift settings and their tolerances as well as the as-left lift setting requirements in the ITS are consistent with the Davis-Besse Inservice Testing Program requirements. ITS Table 3.7.1-1 lists a total of nine MSSVs per steam generator, which is all the MSSVs for a steam generator. Furthermore, the CTS 3.7.1.1 Actions a.2.b) and a.2.c) lift setting tolerances are describing the nominal lift settings of the required valves while in this Action. The parenthetical tolerance bands in the two Actions are only providing clarifying information to help identify the specific MSSV requirements, and the clarifying information is simply the as-left lift setting tolerance. Therefore, this change is acceptable and designated as administrative since it does not result in any technical change to the CTS.
A05 CTS 3.7.1.1 Action c states that the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable. ITS 3.7.1 does not include this specific exception. This changes the CTS by deleting the specific exception to Specification 3.0.4.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. CTS 3.0.4 has been revised as discussed in the Discussion of Changes for ITS Section 3.0. ITS LCO 3.0.4, in part, states that when an LCO is not met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability shall only be made when the associated ACTIONS to be entered permit continued operation in the MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability for an unlimited period of time. ITS 3.7.1 ACTION A requires the plant to reduce power and the High Flux Trip setpoints, and allows operation to continue for an unlimited period of time (provided one of the OPERABLE MSSVs has a lift setting of 1050 psig). Therefore, because the ITS still allows the plant to change a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability, this change is considered to be consistent with the current allowances. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
A06 CTS 4.7.1.1 requires the MSSV lift setpoints to be verified in accordance with Specification 4.0.5, the Inservice Testing Program requirements. The Davis-Besse Inservice Testing Program requires this test to be performed in MODES 1, 2, or 3. ITS SR 3.7.1.1 requires verification of each MSSV lift setpoint in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program. In addition, the Note to SR 3.7.1.1 states that the Surveillance is only required to be performed in MODES 1 and 2. This changes the CTS by explicitly stating that the unit can transition from MODE 4 to MODE 3 without requiring the lift setpoints of the MSSVs to be verified (i.e., the Surveillance to be performed).
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical changes to the Technical Specifications. The CTS does not currently require the lift setpoint test to be complete prior to entering the Applicability of CTS 3.7.1.1 (MODES 1, 2, and 3). Due to the format of the ITS and requirements of ITS SR 3.0.4, this Surveillance Requirement Note is necessary to ensure the unit can transition from MODE 4 to MODE 3 without having the Surveillance performed, provided it Davis-Besse Page 2 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 7 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 8 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.1, MAIN STEAM SAFETY VALVES (MSSVs) is performed prior to transitioning to MODE 2. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 CTS 3.7.1 Action a.2.a states that the High Flux Trip Setpoint must be reduced per Equation 3.7-1 when one or more MSSVs are found to be inoperable. CTS Equation 3.7-1 provides the maximum allowable High Flux Trip Setpoint corresponding to the maximum number of inoperable MSSVs on any operating steam generator. ITS 3.7.1 ACTION A requires both a reduction in THERMAL POWER and a reduction in the High Flux Trip Setpoint consistent with the requirements of ITS Equation 3.7.1-1. The reduction in THERMAL POWER is based on RTP, not the High Flux Setpoint. This changes the CTS by adding an additional explicit statement to reduce THERMAL POWER consistent with ITS Equation 3.7.1-1.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a is to reduce the High Flux Trip Setpoint to within the limits of the safety analyses. This reduction in the setpoint could cause a reactor trip if the THERMAL POWER is not reduced prior to the setpoint change. The unit will reduce THERMAL POWER before reducing the setpoints in order to stay on line. The required power reduction will maintain the same margin to the High Flux Trip Setpoint. This change is designated more restrictive because a specific THERMAL POWER reduction is required and controlled in the ITS.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) Certain portions of CTS 3.7.1.1 Action are modified by footnote *, that states that the MSSV lift setting pressure shall correspond to ambient conditions of the valve at nominal operating temperature and pressure.
This information is not provided in ITS 3.7.1. This changes the CTS by moving this information to the Bases.
The removal of these details for performing Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. ITS 3.7.1 still retains a requirement for the valves to be OPERABLE. Under the definition of OPERABILITY, the MSSVs must be capable of lifting at the assumed conditions, which includes the ambient operating conditions of the MSSVs themselves. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated Davis-Besse Page 3 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 8 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 9 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.1, MAIN STEAM SAFETY VALVES (MSSVs) as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural detailsfor meeting Technical Specification requirements are being moved from the Technical Specifications to the ITS Bases.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category3 - Relaxation of Completion Time) CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a specifies the compensatory actions when one or more MSSVs are inoperable in MODES 1, 2, and 3. The action allows operation to continue provided that within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, either the inoperable valve is restored to OPERABLE status or the High Flux Trip Setpoint is reduced in accordance with the requirements of Equation 3.7-1.
ITS 3.7.1 Required Action A.2 requires the reduction of the High Flux Trip setpoint in accordance with Equation 3.7.1-1 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. This changes the CTS by extending the time allowed to reduce the High Flux Trip setpoint. The change that deletes the restoration option is discussed in DOC A03.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a is to limit the time the unit can operate with inoperable MSSVs without reducing the High Flux Trip setpoints. This change is acceptable because the Completion Time is consistent with safe operation under the specified Condition, considering the OPERABLE status of the redundant systems or features. This includes the capacity and capability of remaining systems or features, a reasonable time for repairs, the low probability of a DBA occurring during the allowed Completion Time. This change extends the time allowed to reduce the High Flux Trip setpoints when the MSSVs are inoperable.
The time extension is from 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. However, the time to reduce THERMAL POWER to the same limits is maintained in ITS 3.7.1 Required Action A.1, as described in DOC M01. This change is acceptable since the Completion Time of 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br /> is based on a reasonable time to correct the MSSV inoperability, the time required to perform the power reduction, operating experience in resetting all channels of a protective function, and on the low probability of the occurrence of a transient that could result in steam generator overpressure during this period. In addition, the actual reactor power level continues to be required to be reduced to within the same limits within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.
Thus operation of the unit at RATED THERMAL POWER with inoperable MSSVs is still only allowed for 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, consistent with the current allowance. This change is designated as less restrictive because additional time is allowed to restore parameters to within the LCO limits than was allowed in the CTS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 15 of 461 JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS ITS 3.7.1, MAIN STEAM SAFETY VALVES (MSSVs)
- 1. All of the installed MSSVs for Davis-Besse must be OPERABLE. All MSSVs listed in Table 3.7.1-1 (nine total MSSVs per steam generator) are required OPERABLE, and Figure 3.7.1-1 is only used when one or more of the MSSVs are inoperable.
Therefore, ISTS LCO 3.7.1 has been changed to delete the reference to Figure 3.7.1-1. Since all installed MSSVs are required, the term "required" in ISTS 3.7.1 Condition A and ISTS SR 3.7.1.1 have been deleted. Furthermore, the equation presented in ISTS Figure 3.7.1-1 is sufficient determine the necessary power reduction and High Flux trip setpoint reduction. Therefore, the graphical representation of the equation has been deleted and the Figure has been renamed as an Equation.
- 2. Changes are made which reflect the plant specific nomenclature.
- 3. This change has been made consistent with the Writer's Guide for the Improved Standard Technical Specifications, TSTF-GG-05-01, Section 4.1.6.i.5.ii.
- 4. The brackets have been removed and the proper plant specific information/value has been provided.
- 5. Editorial correction.
- 6. The Davis-Besse overpressure protection analysis requires one of the OPERABLE MSSVs be set at 1050 psig +/- 3%. Therefore, this requirement has been included in Condition B, similar to the minimum number of OPERABLE MSSVs requirement also included in Condition B.

BASES BACKGROUND The primary purpose of the MSSVs is to provide overpressure protection for the secondary system. The MSSVs also provide protection against overpressurizing the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) by providing a heat sink for removal of energy from the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) if the preferred heat sink, provided by the Condenser and Circulating Water System, is not available.
Nine MSSVs are located on each main steam header, outside
- containment, upstream of the main steam isolation valves, as described iiQ heSAR, Sectionr-(Ref. 1). The MSSV rated capacitypas es e 0 0 i4 1 i ull steam flow at_ T4 Iwth the valves ful opej. This meets the is 14a17556 lb/hrwhimha requirements of the ASME Code,Section III (Ref. 2).

APPLICABLE The design basis of the MSSVs comes from Reference 2 and its purpose SAFETY is to limit secondary system pressure to 5 110% of design pressure when ANALYSES passing 100% of design steam flow. This design basis is sufficient to cope with any anticipated operational occurrence (AOO) or accident considered in the Design Basis Accident (DBA) and transient analysis.
The events that challenge the relieving capacity of the MSSVs, and thus
{ RCS pressure, are those characterized as decreased heat removal events, and are presented in the4FSAR, Section r1 5M (Ref. 3). Of these, the full power turbine trip coincident with a loss o6 condenser heat sink is 00 the limiting AOO. For this event, the Condenser Circulating Water System is lost and, therefore, the Turbine Bypass Valves are not available to relieve Main Steam System pressure. Similarly, MSSV relief Ll capacity is utilized in thelFSAR for mitigation of the following events:
0
- a. Loss of main feedwater
ýM b $team line break,,,
- c. Steam generator tube ruptur Pal
- d. Excessive heat removal due to feedwater system malfunction,*
-The MSSVs satisfy Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 18 of 461 MSSVs B 3.7.1 BASES LCO The MSSVs setpoints are established to prevent overpressurization as discussed in the Applicable Safety Analysis section of these Bases. The LCO requires all MSSVs to be OPERABLE to ensure compliance with the ASME Code following DBAs initiated at full power. Operation with less than a full complement of MSSVs requires limitations on unit THERMAL POWER and adjustment of the Reactor Protection System (RPS) trip setpoints. This effectively limits the Main Steam System steam flow while the MSSV relieving capacity is reduced due to valve inoperability. To be OPERABLE, lift setpoints must remain within limits, according to Table 3.7.1-1 in e a panygn .
0 The OPERABILITY of the MSSVs is defined as the ability to open within the setpoint tolerances, relieve steam generator overpressure, and reseat when pressure has been reduced.
The OPERABILITY of the MSSVs is determined by periodic surveillance testing in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program.
The lift settings, according to Table 3.7.1-1 in tea 1ranyinq LCO correspond to ambient conditions of the valve at nominal operating 0
temperature and pressure.
This LCO provides assurance that the MSSVs will perform the design safety function to mitigate the consequences of accidents that could result in a challenge to the RCPB.
APPLICABILITY In MODE 1ove [18]% RTP, th number of MSSVs r steam generator required tbe OPERABLE mu be within the accept ble region, accordi to Figure 3.7.1-1 in/e accompanying LO. Below [18]% RTP in MO ES 1, 2, and 3, only o MSSVs are requir d OPERABLE per ste generator.
In MODES 4 and 5, there is no credible transient requiring the MSSVs.
tINSERT 1 The steam generators are not normally used for heat removal in MODES 5 and 6, and thus cannot be overpressurized; there is no requirement for the MSSVs to be OPERABLE in these MODES.
ACTIONS The ACTIONS Table is modified by a Note indicating that separate Condition entry is allowed for each MSSV.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 32 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.2, MAIN STEAM ISOLATION VALVES (MSIVs)
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to.
the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 2 and 3 states that the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable. ITS 3.7.2 does not include this specific exception. This changes the CTS by deleting the specific exception to Specification 3.0.4.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. CTS 3.0.4 has been revised as discussed in the Discussion of Changes for ITS Section 3.0. ITS LCO 3.0.4, in part, states that when an LCO is not met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability shall only be made when the associated ACTIONS to be entered permit continued operation in the MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability for an unlimited period of time. ITS 3.7.2 ACTION A requires the plant to close the inoperable MSIV, and allows operation to continue for an unlimited period of time. Therefore, because the ITS still allows the plant to change a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability, this change is considered to be consistent with the current allowances. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
A03 CTS 4.7.1.5 requires each MSIV to be demonstrated OPERABLE "per the requirements of Specification 3.3.2.2." Specification 3.3.2.2 provides the requirements for the Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS)
Instrumentation. CTS 4.3.2.2.3 requires a SFRCS RESPONSE TIME test, and footnote *, in part, describes how the MSIV closure portion of the SFRCS RESPONSE TIME is to be measured. Thus, the CTS 4.7.1.5 requirement is referencing the MSIV closure time requirement. ITS SR 3.7.2.1 requires verification that the isolation time of each MSIV is within limits. This changes the CTS by explicitly stating the MSIV testing requirement in the MSIV Specification.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. The change explicitly states the actual MSIV requirement in the MSIV Specification, in lieu of providing a cross-reference to the Instrumentation Specification that requires a RESPONSE TIME test. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in any technical changes to the CTS.
A04 CTS 3.6.3.1 requires the containment isolation valves to be OPERABLE with isolation times less than or equal to required isolation times. However, CTS 3.7.1.5 also requires the MSIVs to be OPERABLE. ITS 3.7.2 requires the MSIVs to be OPERABLE and ITS SR 3.7.2.1 requires the MSIVs isolation time to Davis-Besse Page 1 of 7 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 32 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 33 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.2, MAIN STEAM ISOLATION VALVES (MSIVs) be within limits. This changes the CTS by placing the MSIVs into a single Specification.
The purpose of ITS 3.7.2 is to provide all the requirements for the MSIVs in a single Specification. As such, this change is acceptable since it does not result in any technical changes. Any technical changes as a result of placing the MSIVs in a common Specification are described and justified in other DOCs.
This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
A05 CTS 3.6.3.1 Action c provides the actions for inoperable MSIVs and includes Note **,which states that the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable.
ITS 3.7.2 does not include this Note. This changes the CTS by deleting the specific exception to Specification 3.0.4.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. CTS 3.0.4 has been revised as discussed in the Discussion of Changes for ITS Section 3.0. ITS LCO 3.0.4, in part, states that when an LCO is not met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability shall only be made when the associated ACTIONS to be entered permit continued operation in the MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability for an unlimited period of time. ITS 3.7.2 ACTION C requires the plant to close the MSIV and allows operation to continue for an unlimited period of time. Therefore, because the ITS still allows the plant to change a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability, this change is considered to be consistent with the current allowances. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 1 requires restoring the inoperable MSIV to OPERABLE status or closing the MSIV. CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODES 2 and 3 states, in part, that subsequent operation in MODE 1, 2, or 3 is allowed if the MSIV is maintained closed. ITS 3.7.2 ACTION A does not include the specific option to close the inoperable MSIV when in MODE 1, only the requirement to restore the MSIV is provided. This changes the CTS by eliminating the allowance to close the inoperable MSIV and continue to operate when in MODE 1.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 1 is to provide compensatory measures to be taken if an MSIV is inoperable while in MODE 1. The Davis-Besse design includes only two RCS loops and two steam generators, each with a single MSIV. Therefore, it is not currently possible for Davis-Besse to close one of the two MSIVs and operate with only a single steam generator in service. Thus, Davis-Besse cannot use this CTS allowance in MODE 1; if an MSIV is inoperable, the restoration requirement must be met or a unit shutdown to MODE 2 is required. Therefore, since this allowance cannot be used, and the ITS retains a requirement to restore compliance with the LCO, this change is acceptable. This change is designated as more restrictive because an Action Davis-Besse Page 2 of 7 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 33 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 34 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.2, MAIN STEAM ISOLATION VALVES (MSIVs) that would allow continued operation without requiring restoration of the LCO is being deleted from the CTS.
M02 CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 1 states, in part, that if one inoperable MSIV cannot be restored to OPERABLE status or closed within the allowed time, to be in HOT SHUTDOWN (MODE 4) within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. Under similar conditions, ITS 3.7.2 ACTION B requires the unit to be shutdown to MODE 2 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.
This changes the CTS by reducing the time to be outside the applicability of the Action statement.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 1 is to provide compensatory measures to be taken ifan MSIV is inoperable while in MODE 1. Once entry is made into MODE 1, the Action is not applicable, and CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODES 2 and 3 must be taken. Thus, the CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 1 requirement to be in MODE 4 is not required; the unit only has to be in MODE 2 within the current 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> period. This change is acceptable because the proposed time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is a sufficient and reasonable time to reach MODE 2 from MODE 1 conditions. This change is designated as more restrictive because less time is being provided to exit the applicability of the Action in the ITS than is provided in the CTS.
M03 CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODES 2 and 3, in part, requires that when one MSIV is inoperable in MODE 2 or 3, the MSIV is to be maintained closed. Once closed, no actions are required to periodically verify the MSIV remains closed. When one MSIV is inoperable in MODE 2 or 3, ITS 3.7.2 Required Action C.1 requires the inoperable MSIV to be closed within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. In addition, ITS 3.7.2 Required Action C.2 requires a verification that the MSIV is closed once per 7 days. This changes the CTS by adding a periodic verification that the inoperable MSIV remains closed. The change in the time to close the MSIV is discussed in DOC L02.
The purpose of the CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODES 2 and 3 is to place the inoperable MSIV in the condition assumed in the safety analysis. This change is acceptable because it provides added assurance that the inoperable MSIV is maintained in this condition, i.e., closed. The proposed 7-day periodic verification is also consistent with a similar requirement in CTS 3.7.1.9 (ITS 3.7.4) when a turbine stop valve (TSV) is inoperable. As discussed in the Bases for ITS 3.7.4, the TSVs are assumed in the safety analysis for the same reasons as the MSIVs. This change is designated as more restrictive because a new requirement is being added to the ITS that is not required in the CTS.
M04 CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODES 2 and 3 states that if one main steam line isolation valve (MSIV) can not be restored to OPERABLE status or closed within the allowed time, to be in HOT SHUTDOWN (MODE 4) within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.
Under similar conditions, ITS 3.7.2 ACTION D states to be in MODE 3 in 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 4 in 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. This changes the CTS by specifying that MODE 3 must be achieved within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.
The purpose of the CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODES 2 and 3 shutdown action is to place the unit outside the Applicability of the LCO. This change is acceptable because a new intermediate MODE must be reached, consistent with the Davis-Besse -Page 3 of 7 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 34 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 35 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.2, MAIN STEAM ISOLATION VALVES (MSIVs) requirements of CTS 3.0.3 and ITS LCO 3.0.3. The proposed Completion Time is sufficient to allow an operator to reduce power to MODE 3 from MODE 2 in a controlled manner without challenging unit safety systems. The 6 hour6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> time provided to reach MODE 3 is consistent with the time provided in similar actions in both the CTS and ITS. This change has been designated as more restrictive because it requires the unit to be placed in MODE 3 within a specific time.
M05 CTS 3.7.1.5 does not include a requirement to verify that each MSIV actuates to the isolation position on an actual or simulated actuation signal. ITS 3.7.2.2 is being added to perform this requirement every 24 months. This changes the CTS by adding a new Surveillance Requirement.
The purpose of ITS SR 3.7.2.2 is to verify that the MSIVs can close on an actual or simulated actuation signal. This change is acceptable because the test is conducted to ensure that the MSIVs will perform their safety function. The 24 month Frequency is consistent with CTS 4.7.1.5, which requires the isolation time of each MSIV to be measured. This change is considered more restrictive because a new Surveillance Requirement is added to the ITS that is not included in the CTS.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES None LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 2 - Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.7.1.5 is applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3. CTS 3.6.3.1 is applicable in MODES 1,2, 3, and 4. ITS LCO 3.7.2 is applicable in MODE 1, and in MODES 2 and 3 except when all MSIVs are closed. This changes the CTS by making the Specification not applicable in MODES 2 and 3 when all MSIVs are closed. The change to the MODE 4 requirement is discussed in DOC L03.
The purpose of the CTS 3.7.1.5 and CTS 3.6.3.1 Applicability is to ensure that the MSIVs are OPERABLE and capable of closing when required to support the safety analyses. This change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. When all the valves are in the closed position, they are in their assumed accident position. This change is designated as less restrictive because the ITS LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.

L02 (Category 3 - Relaxation of Completion Time) CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 1, in part, requires that when one MSIV is inoperable, the MSIV is restored to OPERABLE status or closed within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> or a shutdown is required.
CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODES 2 and 3, in part, requires that when one MSIV is inoperable, the MSIV is to be maintained closed or a shutdown is required.
CTS 3.6.3.1 also provides two alternate actions for inoperable MSIVs.
CTS 3.6.3.1 Action a requires restoration of the inoperable MSIV within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and CTS 3.6.3.1 Action c requires the affected penetration flow path to be isolated by use of a closed manual valve (i.e., the MSIV) within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.
ITS 3.7.2 ACTION A allows 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> to restore an inoperable MSIV prior to requiring a unit shutdown when in MODE 1.

This changes the time allowed in the CTS to restore an inoperable MSIV from 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> when in MODE 1 and changes the time to close an inoperable MSIV from immediately (i.e., "maintained" closed implies an immediate requirement) or 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> when in MODE 2 or 3. The deletion of the closure allowance in CTS 3.7.1.5 Action MODE 1 is discussed in DOC M01.
The purpose of the CTS 3.7.1.5 and CTS 3.6.3.1 Actions is to provide time to restore or close the inoperable MSIVs. This change is acceptable because the Completion Time is consistent with safe operation under the specified Condition, considering the OPERABLE status of the redundant systems or features. This includes the capacity and capability of remaining systems or features, a reasonable time for repairs or replacement, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during the allowed Completion Time. The turbine stop valves (TSVs) are available and required by CTS 3.7.1.9 and ITS 3.7.4 to provide the required isolation for the postulated accidents. This change is also acceptable because of the low probability of an accident occurring during the allowed time which would require closure of the MSIVs. While the 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> Completion Time is greater than that normally allowed for containment isolation valves, MSIVs are valves that isolate a penetration that is neither part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary nor is connected directly to the containment atmosphere. Furthermore, the proposed 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> time is consistent with the time allowed to close the TSVs in CTS 3.7.1.9. This change is designated as less restrictive because additional time is allowed to restore parameters to within the LCO limits than was allowed in the CTS.
L03 (Category2 - Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.6.3.1 requires the MSIVs to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. Furthermore, when one or more MSIVs are inoperable and a unit shutdown is required by CTS 3.6.3.1 Action d, the unit must be in HOT STANDBY (MODE 3) within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in COLD SHUTDOWN (MODE 5) within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />. ITS 3.7.2 requires the MSIVs to be OPERABLE in MODE 1, and MODES 2 and 3 except when all MSIVs are closed.
When a shutdown of the unit is required due to an inoperable MSIV, ITS 3.7.2 ACTION D requires the unit to be in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. This changes the CTS by deleting the MODE 4 requirements for the MSIVs. Due to this change, the shutdown action has also been changed to only require entry into MODE 4, which exits the new Applicability. The change in the Applicability related to the exception concerning closed MSIVs is discussed in DOC L01.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 37 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.2, MAIN STEAM ISOLATION VALVES (MSIVs)
The purpose of the MSIV requirements in CTS 3.6.3.1 is to ensure the MSIVs can be isolated if a main steam line break (MSLB) or feedwater line break (FWLB) occurs. While the MSIVs are containment isolation valves, they do not receive a containment isolation signal. They are closed on a Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) signal. The MSIVs help isolate the steam generators to establish control of fission products released to the secondary system from the primary system following an MSLB or FWLB.
Furthermore, the MSIVs are not subject to 10 CFR 50 Appendix J, Option B leak rate testing. Thus, leakage through these valves is not included in the Type C leakage limit. Therefore, this change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. Due to this change in Applicability, the shutdown action has also been modified to only require entering MODE 4, which will exit the new Applicability. The proposed time to reach MODE 4 is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 4 from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems. This change is designated as less restrictive because the ITS LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.
L04 (Category 4 - Relaxation of Required Action) CTS 3.6.3.1 provides the actions for an inoperable MSIV. CTS 3.6.1.3 Action a requires the restoration of the inoperable MSIV and if not restored, CTS 3.6.1.3 Action d requires a unit shutdown to COLD SHUTDOWN (MODE 5). When in MODE 1, if an inoperable MSIV is not restored to OPERABLE status, ITS 3.7.2 ACTION B only requires a unit shutdown to MODE 2. Once in MODE 2, ITS 3.7.2 ACTION C allows an additional 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> to close the inoperable MSIV and requires verification every 7 days the MSIV is closed. This changes the CTS by allowing the unit an additional 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> to close the inoperable MSIV once the unit has been placed in MODE 2. The change also requires periodic verification the MSIV is closed.
The purpose of the CTS Actions is to provide compensatory measures when an MSIV is inoperable. This change is acceptable since the proposed Action to allow more time to isolate the MSIV after the unit has been placed in MODE 2 is already allowed in another CTS requirement. If the unit is in MODE 1, CTS 3.7.1.5 MODE 1 Actions require the MSIV to be restored, and if not restored to shut down the unit. Once in MODE 2, CTS 3.7.1.5 MODES 2 and 3 Actions allows additional time to close the MSIV prior to shutting down the unit to MODE 4. Therefore, the proposed change is consistent with an allowance already approved by the NRC. While the times to restore or close the MSIV are changed, these are justified in other DOCs. This change is designated as less restrictive because the Required Actions are less stringent in the ITS than in the CTS.
L05 (Category 5 - Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.6.3.1.1 describes tests that must be performed prior to returning a MFSV to service after maintenance, repair or replacement work is performed on the valve or its associated actuator, control or power circuit. The ITS does not include these testing requirements. This changes the CTS by deleting this post-maintenance Surveillance.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 38 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.2, MAIN STEAM ISOLATION VALVES (MSIVs)
The purpose of CTS 4.6.3.1.1 is to verify OPERABILITY of containment isolation valves following their maintenance, repair or replacement. This change is acceptable because the deleted Surveillance Requirement is not necessary to verify that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Thus, appropriate equipment continues to be tested in a manner and at a Frequency necessary to give confidence that the equipment can perform its assumed safety function. Any time the OPERABILITY of a system or component has been affected by repair, maintenance, modification, or replacement of a component, post-maintenance testing is required to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the system or component. This is described in the Bases for ITS SR 3.0.1 and required under SR 3.0.1. The OPERABILITY requirements for the containment isolation valves are described in the Bases for ITS 3.6.3. In addition, the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Section XI (Test Control),
provide adequate controls for test programs to ensure that testing incorporates applicable acceptance criteria. Compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, is required under the unit operating license. As a result, post-maintenance testing will continue to be performed and an explicit requirement in the Technical Specifications is not necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because Surveillances which are required in the CTS will not be required in the ITS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 45 of 461 B 3.7.2 0 INSERT 1 The design basis of the MSIVs is to isolate flow from the secondary side of the steam generators to limit blowdown following a main steam line break (MSLB) or a feedwater line break (FWLB), as discussed in the UFSAR, Sections 15.4.4 (Ref. 2) and 15.2.8 (Ref. 3), respectively. The MSIVs also isolate the steam generators to establish control of fission products released to the secondary system from the primary system following a steam generator tube rupture, as discussed in UFSAR, Section 15.4.2 (Ref. 4). The turbine stop valves (TSVs) also provide a means for main steam isolation in the event of an MSLB. Closure of the TSVs ensures that both steam generators do not blow down following an MSLB in conjunction with the MSIV associated with the unaffected steam generator failing to close. The TSV requirements are provided in ITS 3.7.4, "Turbine Stop Valves (TSVs)."

The accident analysis mpares several different SLB ev nts against different acceptance c iteria. The large SLB outside con inment upstream of the MSIV/ is limiting for offsite dose, althoug *a.break in this short section of main team header has a very low prob bility. The large SLB inside contain t at full power is the limiting case for a post trip return to power. The analysis includes scenarios with o site power available and with a I ss of offsite power following turbi e trip. With offsite power availab e, the reactor coolant pumps cont ue to circulate coolant through the team generators, maximizing the eactor Coolant System (RCS) cool own. With a loss of offsite power, the response of mitigating systems, uch as the High Pressure Injecti n (HPI) System pumps, is delayed. Significant single failures conside ed include failure of an MSIV to close, f ilure of an EDG, and failure of an HPI pump.
The MSIVs serve nly a safety function and remain pen during power operation. These alves operate under the following ituations:
- a. An HELB, a SLB, or main feedwater line brea s (FWLBs). inside containment In order to maximize the mass a d energy release into 0

The MSIVs satisfy Criterion 3 of 10CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).
LCO This LCO requires that the MSIV in both steam lines be OPERABLE. The MSIVs are considered OPERABLE when the isolation times are within limits and they close on an isolation actuation signal.
This LCO provides assurance that the MSIVs will perform their design safety function to mitigate the consequences of accidents that could result in offsite exposures comparable to the 10 CFR 100 limits (Ref. 4).
APPLICABILITY The MSIVs must be OPERABLE in MODE 1 and in MODES 2 and 3 with any MSIV2 open, when there is significant mass and energy in the RCS and steam generator; therefore, the MSIVs must be OPERABLE or 0 closed. When the MSIVs are closed, they are already performing the safety function.
In MODE 4, the steam generator energy.is low. Therefore, the MSIVs are not required to be OPERABLE.
In MODES 5 and 6, the steam generators do not contain much energy because their temperature is below the boiling point of water; therefore, the MSIVs are not required for isolation of potential high energy secondary system pipe breaks in these MODES.
ACTIONS A.1 Fmi7lvWth one MSIV inoperable in MODE 1, action must be taken to restore the-to OPERABLE status within B8:hours. Some repairs can be made to the MSIV with the unit hot. TheI8EJ]hour Completion Time is reasonable, considering the probability of an accident that would require actuation of the MSIVs occurring during this time interval.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.7.1.8 Action states, in part, that when one or more MFCVs or SFCVs are inoperable, to isolate the affected flowpath. CTS 3.6.3.1 Action states, in part, that when one or more isolation valves are inoperable, to isolate the affected penetration. ITS 3.7.3 ACTIONS Note states "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each MFSV, MFCV, and SFCV." This changes the CTS by explicitly specifying separate condition entry for each inoperable MFSV, MFCV, and SFCV.
This change is acceptable because it clearly states the current requirement. The CTS considers each MFSV, MFCV, and SFCV to be separate and independent from the others. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the Specifications.
A03 CTS 4.7.1.8 requires each MFCV and SFCV be demonstrated OPERABLE "by performance of Surveillance Requirement 4.3.2.2.3." Specification 3.3.2.2 provides the requirements for the Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) Instrumentation. CTS 4.3.2.2.3 requires a SFRCS RESPONSE TIME test once per REFUELING INTERVAL (i.e., every 24 months). Thus, the CTS 4.7.1.8 requirement is referencing the MFCV and SFCV closure time requirement. ITS SR 3.7.3.2 requires verification that the isolation time of each MFCV and SFCV is within limits every 24 months. This changes the CTS by explicitly stating the MFCV and SFCV testing requirement in the MFCV and SFCV Specification.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. The change explicitly states the actual MFCV and SFCV requirements in the MFCV and SFCV Specification, in lieu of providing a cross-reference to the Instrumentation Specification that requires a RESPONSE TIME test. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in any technical change to the CTS.
A04 CTS 3.6.3.1 requires the containment isolation valves to be OPERABLE with isolation times less than or equal to required isolation times. ITS 3.7.3, in part, requires the MFSVs to be OPERABLE, and ITS SR 3.7.3.1 requires the MFSVs isolations time to be within limits. This changes the CTS by placing the MFSVs into a Specification with the other main feedwater isolation valves (MFIVs); i.e.,
Davis-Besse Page 1 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 59 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 60 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.3, MAIN FEEDWATER STOP VALVES (MFSVs), MAIN FEEDWATER CONTROL VALVES (MFCVs), AND ASSOCIATED STARTUP FEEDWATER CONTROL VALVES (SFCVs)
The purpose of ITS 3.7.3 is to provide all the requirements for the MFIVs (MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs) in a single Specification. As such, this change is acceptable since it does not result in any technical changes. Any technical changes as a result of placing the MFSVs in a common Specification with the other MFIVs are described and justified in other DOCs. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
A05 When one or more of the MFSVs are inoperable, CTS 3.6.3.1 Action a requires restoring the inoperable valve(s) to OPERABLE status within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> or taking one of the other specified compensatory actions. ITS 3.7.3 does not state the requirement to restore an inoperable isolation valve to OPERABLE status, but includes other compensatory Required Actions to take within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, as applicable. This changes the CTS by not explicitly stating the requirement to restore an inoperable valve to OPERABLE status. The change in the time allowed to meet the compensatory Required Actions (72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> and 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />) is discussed in DOC L03).
This change is acceptable because the technical requirements have not changed. Restoration of compliance with the LCO is always an available Required Action and it is the convention in the ITS to not state such "restore" options explicitly unless it is the only action or is required for clarity. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in any technical changes to the CTS.
A06 CTS 3.6.3.1 Action c provides the actions for inoperable MFSVs and includes Note **, which states that the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable.
ITS 3.7.3 does not include this Note. This changes the CTS by deleting the specific exception to Specification 3.0.4.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. CTS 3.0.4 has been revised as discussed in the Discussion of Changes for ITS Section 3.0. ITS LCO 3.0.4, in part, states that when an LCO is not met, entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability shall only be made when the associated ACTIONS to be entered permit continued operation in the MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability for an unlimited period of time. ITS 3.7.3 ACTIONS A and D require the plant to close the MFSV or isolate the MFSV or affected flow path and allow operation to continue for an unlimited period of time. Therefore, because the ITS still allows the plant to change a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability, this change is considered to be consistent with the current allowances. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 The CTS 3.7.1.8 Action states, in part, that with one or more MFCVs or SFCVs inoperable, to isolate the affected flowpath within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. ITS 3.7.3 ACTION D will require isolation of the affected flowpath within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> if a MFSV is inoperable in the same flowpath as the inoperable MFCV or SFCV. This changes the CTS by reducing the time to isolate the affected penetration if a MFSV is inoperable concurrent with an inoperable MFCV or SFCV in the same flowpath.
The purpose of ITS 3.7.3 ACTION D is to limit the time valves in the same flowpath are concurrently inoperable. This change is acceptable since when both the MFSV and the MFCV or SFCV are inoperable in the same flowpath, no MFIVs are OPERABLE to automatically isolate the affected flowpath and perform the required safety function. Therefore, the time allowed to isolate the flowpath is restricted to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> in lieu of the current 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. This change is designated as more restrictive since less time is provided to isolate the affected flowpath in the ITS than is provided in the CTS.
M02 CTS 3.7.1.8 does not include a requirement to verify that each MFCV and SFCV actuate to the isolation position on an actual or simulated actuation signal.
CTS 3.6.3.1 does not include a requirement to verify that each MFSV actuate to the isolation position on an actual or simulated actuation signal. (While CTS 4.6.3.1.2 requires an actuation test, the test signal specified, a containment isolation test signal, does not actuate the MFSVs; thus the MFSVs are not covered by an actuation test). ITS SR 3.7.3.3 is being added to perform this requirement every 24 months. This changes the CTS by adding additional Surveillance Requirements.
The purpose of ITS SR 3.7.3.3 is to verify that the MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs can close on an actual or simulated actuation signal. This change is acceptable because the test is conducted to ensure that the MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs will perform their safety function. The 24 month Frequency is consistent with CTS 4.7.1.8, which requires the isolation time of each MFCV and SFCV to be measured. The Frequency is also consistent with CTS 4.3.2.2.3, the SFRCS RESPONSE TIME Surveillance, which requires the isolation time of each MFSV, MFCV, and SFCV to be measured. This change is designated as more restrictive since a Surveillance Requirement is being added to the ITS that is not required by the CTS.

LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 2 - Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.7.1.8 is applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3. CTS 3.6.3.1 is applicable in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. ITS LCO 3.7.3 is applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3 except when all MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs are closed or isolated by a closed manual valve. This changes the CTS by making the Specifications not applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3 when all MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs are closed or isolated by a closed manual valve. The change in the MODE 4 Applicability for CTS 3.6.3.1 is discussed in DOC L02.
The purpose of the ITS 3.7.3 Applicability is to ensure that the MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs are OPERABLE and capable of closing to support the safety analyses. This change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. When all the valves are in the closed position or are isolated by a closed manual valve, they (or their flowpath) are in their assumed accident position.
This change is designated as less restrictive because the ITS LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.
L02 (Category 2 - Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.6.3.1 requires the MFSVs to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. Furthermore, when one or more MFSVs are inoperable and a unit shutdown is required by CTS 3.6.3.1 Action d, the unit must be in HOT STANDBY (MODE 3) within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in COLD SHUTDOWN (MODE 5) within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />. ITS 3.7.3 requires the MFSVs to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, and 3 except when all MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs are closed or isolated by a closed manual valve. When a shutdown of the unit is required due to an inoperable MFSV, ITS 3.7.3 ACTION E requires the unit to be in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. This changes the CTS by deleting the MODE 4 requirements for the MFSVs. Due to this change, the shutdown action has also been changed to only require entry into MODE 4, which exits the new Applicability. The change in the Applicability related to the exception concerning closed or isolated MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs is discussed in DOC L01.
The purpose of the MFSV requirements in CTS 3.6.3.1 is to ensure the MFSVs can be isolated if a main steam line break (MSLB) or feedwater line break (FWLB) occurs. While the MFSVs are containment isolation valves, they do not receive a containment isolation signal. They are closed on a Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) signal. The MFSVs help isolate the steam generators to establish control of fission products released to the secondary system from the primary system following an MSLB or FWLB.
Furthermore, the MFSVs are not subject to 10 CFR 50 Appendix J, Option B leak rate testing. Thus, leakage through these valves is not included in the type C leakage limit. Therefore, this change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. Due to this change in Applicability, the shutdown action has also been modified to only require entering MODE 4, which will exit the new Davis-Besse Page 4 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 62 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 63 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.3, MAIN FEEDWATER STOP VALVES (MFSVs), MAIN FEEDWATER CONTROL VALVES (MFCVs), AND ASSOCIATED STARTUP FEEDWATER CONTROL VALVES (SFCVs)
Applicability. The proposed time to reach MODE 4 is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 4 from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems. This change is designated as less restrictive because the ITS LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.
L03 (Category 3 - Relaxation of Completion Time) CTS 3.6.3.1 Action c allows 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to isolate the affected penetration when one or more of the MFSVs are inoperable. ITS 3.7.3 ACTION A will allow 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to close or isolate the MFSV when a MFSV is inoperable, and once isolated, will require verification that the flowpath remains isolated every 7 days. However, if a MFSV and a MFCV or a SFCV in the same flowpath are concurrently inoperable, ITS 3.7.3 ACTION D will only allow 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> to isolate the affected flowpath. This changes the CTS by extending the Completion Time from 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> when a MFSV is inoperable and from 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> when both a MFSV and either a MFCV or SFCV in the same flowpath are concurrently inoperable.
The purpose of CTS 3.6.3.1 Action c is to provide a degree of assurance that the affected flowpath with an inoperable MFSV maintains the containment penetration isolation boundary. This change is acceptable because the Completion Time is consistent with safe operation under the specified Condition, the capacity and capability of remaining features, a reasonable time for repairs or replacement of required features, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during the allowed Completion Time. While the MFSVs are containment isolation valves, they do not receive a containment isolation signal. They are closed on a Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) signal. The MFSVs help isolate the steam generators following a MSLB or MFWB. Furthermore, the MFSVs are not subject to 10 CFR 50 Appendix J, Option B leak rate testing.
Thus, leakage through these valves is not included in the type C leakage limit.
The MFSVs do not communicate with the containment atmosphere or reactor coolant pressure boundary, thus 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> is a reasonable time period considering the relative stability of a system to act as a penetration isolation boundary and the redundancy provided by the remaining MFIVs in the associated flowpath (i.e., the MFCV and SFCV). The 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> is a reasonable time period considering the relative stability of a system to act as a penetration isolation boundary and the low probability of a MSLB or FWLB. In addition, the periodic 7 day verification will ensure that the closed or isolated MFSV remains in the correct position. This change is designated as less restrictive because additional time is allowed to isolate the MFSVs than was allowed in the CTS.
L04 (Category 5 - Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.6.3.1.1 describes tests that must be performed prior to returning a MFSV to service after maintenance, repair or replacement work is performed on the valve or its associated actuator, control or power circuit. The ITS does not include these testing requirements. This changes the CTS by deleting this post-maintenance Surveillance.

The purpose of CTS 4.6.3.1.1 is to verify OPERABILITY of containment isolation valves following their maintenance, repair or replacement. This change is acceptable because the deleted Surveillance Requirement is not necessary to verify that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Thus, appropriate equipment continues to be tested in a manner and at a Frequency necessary to give confidence that the equipment can perform its assumed safety function. Any time the OPERABILITY of a system or component has been affected by repair, maintenance, modification, or replacement of a component, post-maintenance testing is required to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the system or component. This is described in the Bases for ITS SR 3.0.1 and required under SR 3.0.1. The OPERABILITY requirements for the containment isolation valves are described in the Bases for ITS 3.6.3. In addition, the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Section XI (Test Control),
provide adequate controls for test programs to ensure that testing incorporates applicable acceptance criteria. Compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, is required under the unit operating license. As a result, post-maintenance testing will continue to be performed and an explicit requirement in the Technical Specifications is not necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because Surveillances which are required in the CTS will not be required in the ITS.

- 1. The ISTS 3.7.3 ACTIONS Note has been modified to list the specific valves to which the Note applies (MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs) instead of the generic term "valves."
This is also consistent with similar Specifications in Section 3.7 (e.g., ITS 3.7.1 and ITS 3.7.2).
- 2. The brackets have been removed and the proper plant specific information/value has been provided.
- 3. Typographical error corrected. The word "or" should be "and," since both MFCVs and their associated SFCVs are required to be OPERABLE.
- 4. Editorial change made to ISTS 3.7.3 Conditions B and C for consistency with other similar Specifications in Section 3.7 (e.g., ITS 3.7.1 and ITS 3.7.2). Furthermore, the proposed words are consistent with the wording in the ACTIONS Note.
- 5. The Notes to ISTS SR 3.7.3.1 and SR 3.7.3.2 have been deleted. Davis-Besse normally performs the isolation time tests for the MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs in MODE 4. ISTS SR 3.7.3.2, while not currently required in the Davis-Besse CTS, can also be performed in MODE 4 when the isolation time tests are performed.
Therefore, the allowance to perform the SRs in MODE 3 is not required.
- 6. ISTS SR 3.7.3.1 requires verification of the isolation times ifthe MFSVs, MFCVs, and SFCVs at a Frequency in accordance with the Inservice Testing (IST) Program.
The Davis-Besse IST Program does not include the MFCVs or SFCVs. Therefore, ITS SR 3.7.3.1 will only require verification of the isolation time of the MFSVs in accordance with the IST Program and new ITS SR 3.7.3.2 will require verification of the isolation times of the MFCVs and SFCVs at a 24 month Frequency. The 24 month Frequency is consistent with the Frequency of CTS 4.3.2.2.3, which is the Surveillance referenced by CTS 4.7.1.8, the current MFCV and SFCV isolation time Surveillance.

BASES BACKGROUND The main feedwater isolation valves (MFIVs) for each steam generator consist of the MFSVs, MFCVs, and the SFCVs. The MFIVs isolate main feedwater (MFVV) flow .to the secondary side of the steam generators following a high energy line break (HELB). Closure of the MFIVs terminates flow to 'both steam generators, terminating the event for feedwater line breaks (FWLBs) occurring upstream of the MFIVs. The consequences of events occurring in the main steam lines or in the feedwater lines downstream of the MFIVs will be mitigated by their closure. Closing the MFIVs and associated bypass valves effectively terminates the addition of feedwater to an affected steam generator, limiting the mass and energy release fongteam line breaks ( LBs) or FVVLBs inside containment and reducing the cooldown effects for LBs. M The MFIVs close on receipt of a Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) signal generated by eiher~low earngeneatra[]L Main Steam Line Pressure' pressure or stearh generator/feedwater differentiI pressureý The MFIVs or Feedwater/Steam PesLow

containment and ensure that the consequences o events do not exceed the capa ity of the containment heat remov I systems.]
IA description of the.MFIVs is found in the FSAR, Segtin [10.4.7] (Ref. 1 ).
APPLICABLE The design basis of the MFIVs is established by the analysis for the Ia e SAFETY SLB. It is also influenced by the accident analysis for the large FVNLB.
ANALYSES Closure of the MFIVs may also be relied on to terminate a steam break
- for core response analysis and excess feedwater event upon the receipt L- of a steam generator water level - high signal.
Failure of an MFIV to close following an LB, FWLB, or excess feedwater event, can result in additional mass and energy being delivered to the steam generators, contributing to cooldown. This failure also results in additional mass and energy releases following an LB or FVVLB event.
The MFIVs satisfy Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).

ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.7.1.9 Action states, in part, that when one or more turbine stop valves (TSVs) are inoperable, close the inoperable valve(s) within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> and verify that the valve(s) are closed once per 7 days. ITS 3.7.4 ACTIONS Note states "Separate Condition entry is allowed for each TSV." This changes the CTS by explicitly specifying separate condition entry for each inoperable TSV.
This change is acceptable because it clearly states the current requirement. The CTS considers each TSV to be separate and independent from the others. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the Specification.
A03 CTS 4.7.1.9 requires each TSV be demonstrated OPERABLE "by performance of Surveillance Requirement 4.3.2.2.3." Specification 3.3.2.2 provides the requirements for the Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS)
Instrumentation. CTS 4.3.2.2.3 requires a SFRCS RESPONSE TIME test, and footnote *, in part, describes how the TSV closure portion of the SFRCS RESPONSE TIME is to be measured. Thus, the CTS 4.7.1.9 requirement is referencing the TSV closure time requirement. ITS SR 3.7.4.1 requires verification that the isolation time of each TSV is within limits. This changes the CTS by explicitly stating the TSV testing requirement in the TSV Specification.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. The change explicitly states the actual TSV requirement in the TSV Specification, in lieu of providing a cross-reference to the Instrumentation Specification that requires a RESPONSE TIME test. This changeis designated as administrative because it does not result in any technical change to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 CTS 3.7.1.9 does not include a requirement to verify that each TSV actuates to the isolation position on an actual or simulated actuation signal. ITS SR 3.7.4.2 is being added to perform this requirement every 24 months. This changes the CTS by adding an additional Surveillance Requirement.
The purpose of ITS SR 3.7.4.2 is to verify that the TSVs can close on an actual or simulated actuation signal. This change is acceptable because the test is conducted to ensure that the TSVs will perform their safety function. The 24 month Frequency is consistent with CTS 4.7.1.9, which requires the isolation Davis-Besse Page 1 of 2 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 83 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 84 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.4, TURBINE STOP VALVES (TSVs) time of each TSV to be measured. This change is considered more restrictive because a new Surveillance Requirement is added to the ITS that was not included in the CTS.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES None LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 2- Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.7.1.9 is applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3. ITS LCO 3.7.4 is applicable in MODE 1, and in MODES 2 and 3 except when all TSVs are closed. This changes the CTS by making the Specification not applicable in MODES 2 and 3 when all TSVs are closed.
The purpose of the ITS 3.7.4 Applicability is to ensure that the TSVs are OPERABLE and capable of closing to support the safety analyses. This change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. When all the valves are in the closed position, they are in their assumed accident position.
Furthermore, this change is also consistent with the Applicability of ISTS 3.7.2, "Main Steam Isolation Valves (MSIVs)." At Davis-Besse, the TSVs perform a similar function and are required for the main steam line break accident, which is one of the accident scenarios listed for the MSIVs in the ISTS 3.7.2 Bases. This change is designated as less restrictive because the ITS LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.

BASES BACKGROUND The TSVs are designed to quickly shut off steam flow to the turbine and prevent turbine overspeed under emergency conditions. TSV closure also terminates flow from the unaffected (intact) steam generator following a main steam line break (MSLB).
Four turbine stop valves are located in front and below the turbine unit.
Steam from one steam generator passes through two of the TSVs (in parallel pathways) and steam from the other steam generator passes through the other two TSVs (in parallel pathways). The TSVs are closed on a Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) signal generated by either Main Steam Line Pressure - Low or Feedwater/Steam Generator Differential Pressure - High to prevent blowdown of both steam generators during a MSLB.
A description of the turbine stop valves are found in the UFSAR, Section 10.2 (Ref. 1).
APPLICABLE The design basis of the TSVs are established by the accident analysis SAFETY of the MSLB events presented in the UFSAR, Section 15.4 (Ref. 2).
ANALYSES Credit is taken in the MSLB analysis for TSV closure. The TSVs provide a redundant means for main steam line isolation in the event of an MSLB downstream of the MSIVs.
The TSVs satisfy Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).
LCO This LCO requires all four TSVs to be OPERABLE. The TSVs are considered OPERABLE when the isolation times are within limits and they close on an isolation actuation signal.
This LCO provides assurance that the TSVs will perform their design safety function to mitigate the consequences of accidents that could result in offsite exposures comparable to the 10 CFR 100 limits (Ref. 3).
APPLICABILITY The TSVs must be OPERABLE in MODE 1 and in MODES 2 and 3 with any TSV open, when there is significant mass and energy in the Reactor Coolant System and steam generator; therefore, the TSVs must be OPERABLE or closed. When all the TSVs are closed, they are already performing the safety function.
In MODE 4, the steam generator energy is low. Therefore, the TSVs are not required to be OPERABLE.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 90 of 461 TSVs B 3.7.4 BASES APPLICABILITY (continued)
In MODES 5 and 6, the steam generators do not contain much energy because their temperature is below the boiling point of water; therefore, the TSVs are not required for isolation of potential high energy secondary system pipe breaks in these MODES.
ACTIONS The ACTIONS Table is modified by a NOTE indicating that separate Condition entry is allowed for each TSV.
A.1 and A.2 With one TSV inoperable, action must be taken to close the inoperable TSV within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. The 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> Completion Time is reasonable, considering the probability of an accident that would require actuation of the TSVs occurring during this time interval. The MSIVs are also available to provide the required isolation for the postulated accidents.
Inoperable TSVs that are closed must be verified on a periodic basis that they are closed. This is necessary to ensure that the assumptions in the safety analysis remain valid. The 7 day Completion Time is reasonable, based on engineering judgment, in view of TSV status indications available in the control room, and other administrative controls, to ensure that these valves are closed.
B.1 and B.2 If any Required Action and associated Completion Time cannot be met, the unit must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the unit must be placed in at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from MODE 1 conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.
SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.4.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR verifies that the closure time of each TSV is within the limits in Reference 4 and is within that assumed in the accident and containment analyses. This SR is normally performed upon returning the unit to operation following a refueling outage, because the TSVs should not be tested at power since even a part stroke exercise increases the risk of a valve closure with the unit generating power.
The Frequency of TSV testing is every 24 months. The 24 month Frequency for testing is based on the refueling cycle. Operating B 3.7.4-2 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 90 of 461

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 103 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW)
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conyersion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 The ITS 3.7.5 ACTIONS include a Note that states LCO 3.0.4.b is not applicable when entering MODE 1. CTS 3.7.1.2 and CTS 3.7.1.7 do not include this Note.
This changes the CTS by including the ACTION Note.
The purpose of the ITS 3.7.5 ACTIONS Note is to prohibit entry into MODE 1 with an inoperable EFW train. Currently, CTS 3.7.1.2 and CTS 3.7.1.7 preclude entering MODES 1, 2, and 3 when an AFW train or MDFP train, respectively, are inoperable. ITS LCO 3.0.4 has been added in accordance with the Discussion of Changes for ITS Section 3.0, DOC L01. This LCO allows entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability under certain conditions when a Technical Specification required component is inoperable. ITS LCO 3.0.4 allows entry into a MODE or other condition in the Applicability of a Specification if a risk assessment is performed, that determines it is acceptable to enter the Applicability, and appropriate risk management actions are established. The addition of this restriction (LCO 3.0.4.b is not applicable) is acceptable because there is an increased risk associated with entering MODE 1 with an inoperable EFW train, and therefore the provisions of LCO 3.0.4.b should not be applied in this circumstance. The change is acceptable because CTS 3.7.1.2 and CTS 3.7.1.7 do not currently allow this option. This change is considered administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A03 CTS 4.7.1.7.c requires performance of a MDFP train functional test (i.e., verify it can be started and properly operated) at least once per 92 days "and prior to entry into MODE 3 from MODE 4 (if not performed in the past 92 days)."
CTS 4.7.1.7.d.1 requires verification at least once each refueling interval (24 months) that there is a flow path between the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump System and the Auxiliary Feedwater System by pumping the water from the Condensate Storage Tanks to the steam generators. It further states it must be performed prior to entering MODE 3 from MODE 4. CTS 4.7.1.7.f requires the same test as CTS 4.7.1.7.d.1 following a COLD SHUTDOWN greater than 30 days, and includes the same stipulation that it must be performed prior to entering MODE 3 from MODE 4. ITS SR 3.7.5.7 requires the same Surveillance test, but does not include the "prior to entering MODE 3 from MODE 4" stipulation. This changes the CTS by deleting the statements "prior to entry into MODE 3 from MODE 4 (if not performed in the past 92 days)" and "prior to entry into MODE 3 from MODE 4."
This change is acceptable because the CTS requirement has not changed.
CTS 4.0.4 states that "entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability shall not be made unless the Surveillance Requirement(s)
Davis-Besse Page 1 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 103 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 104 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation have been performed within the stated surveillance Interval or otherwise specified." This requirement has been maintained in ITS 3.0.4. Therefore, there is no need to restate CTS 4.0.4 (ITS SR 3.0.4). This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 CTS 3.7.1.2 Action a states that if the inoperable AFW train cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the allowed time, to be in HOT SHUTDOWN (MODE 4) within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The CTS 3.7.1.7 Action states that if the inoperable MDFP train cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the allowed time, to be in HOT SHUTDOWN (MODE 4) within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. Under similar conditions, ITS 3.7.2 ACTION D states to be in MODE 3 in 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 4 in 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. This changes the CTS by specifying that MODE 3 must be achieved within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.
The purpose of the CTS 3.7.1.2 and CTS 3.7.1.7 shutdown actions is to place the unit outside the Applicability of the LCOs. This change is acceptable because a new intermediate MODE must be reached, consistent with the requirements of CTS 3.0.3 and ITS LCO 3.0.3. The proposed Completion Time is sufficient to allow an operator to reduce power to MODE 3 in a controlled manner without challenging unit safety systems. The 6 hour6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> time provided to reach MODE 3 is consistent with the time provided in similar actions in both the CTS and ITS. This change has been designated as more restrictive because it requires the unit to be placed in MODE 3 within a specific time.
M02 CTS 3.7.1.2 does not provide any actions when both AFW trains are inoperable for reasons other than those provided in CTS 3.7.1.2 Action c (which actually describes a condition in which both AFW trains and the MDFP train is inoperable, as described in DOC L02). Thus, if only two AFW trains are inoperable, CTS 3.0.3 must be entered. CTS 3.0.3 requires a unit shutdown to commence within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, and the unit to be placed in MODE 3 in the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in MODE 4 in the following 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. CTS 3.7.1.7 provides the requirements for the MDFP train. Since this is a separate Technical Specification that is not part of CTS 3.7.1.2, the AFW train Technical Specification, no actions are provided in either CTS 3.7.1.2 or 3.7.1.7 to cover the condition of one AFW train inoperable concurrent with the MDFP train being inoperable. Thus, if an AFW train and MDFP train are concurrently inoperable, CTS 3.7.1.2 Action a would allow 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to restore the inoperable AFW train to OPERABLE status and the CTS 3.7.1.7 Action would allow 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to restore the inoperable MDFP train to Operable status, prior to requiring a unit shutdown. However, CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .a (the AFW pump flow rate test) and 4.7.1.2.1.f (a post-maintenance flow test) includes a footnote (footnote *) that states if an AFW train is inoperable due to realigning valves for Surveillance testing concurrent with the MDFP train being inoperable, then a dedicated individual (in communication with the control room) shall be stationed at the realigned AFW train valves so that they can be restored to OPERABLE status if required. A similar footnote (footnote **) requiring stationing an individual at the MDFP train valves if one AFW train is inoperable is provided for CTS 4.7.1.7.c.2 and 4.7.1.7.c.3 (the MDFP train flow test).

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 105 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) as these footnote allowances are followed, the 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> restoration times provided in CTS 3.7.1.2 Action a and CTS 3.7.1.7 Action are allowed. ITS 3.7.5 ACTION C will limit the restoration time to 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> if the MDFP train is inoperable concurrent with an AFW train inoperable due to one inoperable steam supply. ITS 3.7.5 Condition D, second Condition, covers the case where any two EFW trains (i.e., two AFW trains or one AFW train and the MDFP train) are inoperable for reasons other than Condition C (the MDFP train inoperable concurrent with an AFW train inoperable due to one inoperable steam supply).
When in this Condition, a unit shutdown to MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> is required. This changes the CTS by a) reducing the time the MDFP train can be inoperable concurrent with an AFW train inoperable due to one inoperable steam supply from 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />; b) reducing the time the MDFP train can be inoperable concurrent with an AFW train being inoperable for reasons other than an inoperable steam supply from 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to no time (i.e., no restoration time is provided); and c) reducing the time to be in MODE 3 from 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br /> to 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 4 from 13 hours1.50463e-4 days <br />0.00361 hours <br />2.149471e-5 weeks <br />4.9465e-6 months <br /> to 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> when both AFW trains are inoperable.
The purpose of ITS 3.7.5 ACTION C and ACTION D is to limit the time two EFW trains can be concurrently inoperable. The proposed time in ITS 3.7.5 ACTION C is acceptable since it appropriately limits the time the unit can continue to operate with the MDFP inoperable concurrent with one AFW train inoperable due to an inoperable steam supply. The proposed time in ITS 3.7.5 ACTION D is acceptable since it requires a unit shutdown within a shorter time, without providing any additional time for commencing the shutdown requirements if both AFW trains are inoperable and requires a unit shutdown without providing any restoration time ifthe MDFP train is inoperable concurrent with an AFW train being inoperable for reasons other than one inoperable steam supply. This change is designated as more restrictive since less time is provided to restore inoperable components in the ITS than is provided in the CTS.
M03 CTS 4.7.1.2.1.a.1 requires a flow rate test of the AFW trains. It is modified by an allowance that the provisions of Specification 4.0.4 are not applicable for entry into MODE 3. CTS 4.7.1.2.1.c.2 requires a verification that each AFW pump starts upon receipt of a Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System actuation test signal. It is also modified by an allowance that the provisions of Specification 4.0.4 are not applicable for entry into MODE 3. Since the Applicability of CTS 3.7.1.2 is MODES 1, 2, and 3, these statements essentially allow the unit to enter MODE 3 without having the two Surveillances performed (current) within the associated Frequency. The two Surveillances must be performed (i.e., current) prior to entering MODE 2. ITS SR 3.7.5.2 and SR 3.7.5.5 require similar Surveillances. However, they are modified by a Note that states the SRs are not required to be performed until 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after reaching 800 psig in the steam generators. This changes the CTS by limiting the amount of time the unit can operate in MODE 3 prior to requiring the Surveillances to be performed.
The purpose of the CTS allowances is to provide time to perform the Surveillances under the necessary unit conditions. To perform these Surveillances, adequate steam generator pressure is required. The proposed limit of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after reaching 800 psig in the steam generators is acceptable Davis-Besse Page 3 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 105 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 106 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) because it provides adequate time to perform the Surveillances after reaching the necessary unit conditions. This change is designated as more restrictive since less time is being allowed to performed the Surveillances in the ITS than is allowed in the CTS.
M04 The CTS 3.7.1.7 requirements for the MDFP train are applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3. ITS 3.7.5 requirements for the MDFP train are applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3, and in addition, MODE 4 when a steam generator is relied upon for heat removal. Consistent with this change in Applicability, a new ACTION (ITS 3.7.5 ACTION F) has been provided when the MDFP train is inoperable in MODE 4, and the new ACTION requires action to be immediately initiated to restore the MDFP train to OPERABLE status. This changes the CTS 3.7.1.7 requirements by requiring the MDFP train to be OPERABLE in MODE 4 when a SG is relied upon for heat removal.
This change is acceptable because the MDFP train may be needed in MODE 4 when the steam generators are used for heat removal until the decay heat removal (DHR) loop has been placed in service. ITS LCO 3.4.6, "RCS Loops -
MODE 4," includes requirements for OPERABLE steam generators, thus a MDFP train must be OPERABLE to ensure the steam generators have a source of feedwater. The change is designated as more restrictive because the MDFP train is now required to be OPERABLE in MODE 4 when a steam generator is relied upon for heat removal.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type I - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS LCO 3.7.1.2 requires two trains of auxiliary feedwater, each consisting of an auxiliary feedwater pump and associated flow path to both steam generators, to be OPERABLE. CTS LCO 3.7.1.7 requires the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump and associated flow paths to the Auxiliary Feedwater System to be OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.7.5 requires three EFW trains to be OPERABLE, consisting of two Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) trains and the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump (MDFP) train. The ITS does not define the components and associated flow path that comprise an OPERABLE EFW train. This changes the CTS by moving the description of the AFW and MDFP trains to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications, is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS retains all necessary requirements in the LCO to ensure OPERABILITY of the EFW trains (both AFW and MDFP). Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of Davis-Besse Page 4 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 106 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 107 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirementto the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAPM, IST Program, or lIP) CTS 3.7.1.2 Action b provides Action requirements for an inoperable auxiliary feed pump turbine inlet steam pressure interlock which require restoration within 7 days or a unit shutdown.
CTS 4.7.1.2.2 provides the Surveillance Requirement for the auxiliary feed pump turbine inlet steam pressure interlocks and requires a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST every 31 days and a CHANNEL CALIBRATION every refueling interval (24 months). ITS 3.7.5 does not include these requirements. This changes the CTS by moving these requirements to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
The removal of this Action Requirement and associated Surveillance Requirement from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The purpose of CTS 3.7.1.2 is to ensure the AFW trains are OPERABLE. As stated in the NRC Safety Evaluation for Amendment 131, dated April 25, 1989, the auxiliary feedwater pump turbine inlet steam pressure interlocks are not required for the AFW trains to be OPERABLE. The purpose of the turbine inlet steam pressure interlocks is to close the auxiliary feedwater pump turbine steam supply valves if a low pressure in a steam admission line exists, indicative of a break in a steam admission line. As stated in the CTS 3/4.7.1.2 Bases issued as part of Amendment 131, the OPERABILITY of the auxiliary feed pump turbine inlet pressure interlocks is required only for high energy line break concerns and does not affect AFW System OPERABILITY. Therefore, these requirements are not necessary to be included in the ITS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Also this change is acceptable because the removed requirements will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is currently incorporated by reference into the UFSAR, thus any changes to the TRM are made under 10 CFR 50.59, which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because Surveillance Requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA03 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAPM, IST Program,or 1iP) CTS 4.7.1.2.1.b.3 requires verifying certain turbine plant cooling water valves and the startup feedwater pump suction and discharge valves are closed. ITS 3.7.5 does not include this Surveillance. This changes the CTS by moving this Surveillance Requirement to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
The removal of this Surveillance Requirement from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .b.3, as stated in the CTS 3/4.7.1.2 Bases, is to address concerns associated with potential pipe failures in the AFW pump rooms that could occur during operation of the startup feedwater pump. The startup feedwater pump was originally used during a unit startup since the main Davis-Besse Page 5 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 107 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 108 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) feedwater pumps are steam driven. However, since the addition of the MDFP train, the MDFP train is the feedwater pump normally used during a unit startup.
Furthermore, closure of these valves is not required for the AFW trains to be OPERABLE during a loss of feedwater event or main steam line break event.
Therefore, this Surveillance is not necessary to be included in the ITS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Also this change is acceptable because the removed Surveillance Requirement will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is currently incorporated by reference into the UFSAR, thus any changes to the TRM are made under 10 CFR 50.59, which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because a Surveillance Requirement is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA04 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .c.1 and 4.7.1.2.1 .c.2 require verification that each automatic valve in the AFW flow path actuates to its correct position and each AFW pump starts automatically, respectively, on a Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control Systems (SFRCS) actuation test signal. ITS SR 3.7.5.4 and SR 3.7.5.5 do not state the specific type of signal, but only specify an actual or simulated "actuation" signal. This changes CTS by moving the type of actuation signal (i.e., SFRCS) to the Bases. The change to allow an actual signal is discussed in DOC L06.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to verify that appropriate equipment actuates upon receipt of an actuation signal.
Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5 of the ITS. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Specification.
LA05 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .a.1 requires verifying the differential pressure of the AFW pumps are greater than or equal to the required differential pressure at the specified recirculation flow rate. CTS 4.7.1.2.1.c.3 and 4.7.1.2.1 .g.1 require verification that there is a flow path from each auxiliary feedwater pump to both steam generators by pumping water from the Condensate Storage Tank with each pump to both steam generators. They further state that the flow path shall be verified by either steam generator level change or Auxiliary Feedwater Safety Grade Flow Indication, and that the verification of the Auxiliary Feedwater System's flow capacity is not required by these Surveillances. CTS 4.7.1.7.d.1 and 4.7.1.7.f.1 require verification that there is a flow path between the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump System and the Auxiliary Feedwater System by pumping the water from the Condensate Storage Tanks to the steam generators. They further state that the flow path to the steam generators shall be verified by either steam generator level change or Auxiliary Davis-Besse Page 6 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 108 of 461

Feedwater Safety Grade Flow Indication, and that the verification of the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump System flow capacity is not required by these Surveillances. ITS SR 3.7.5.2 requires a similar AFW pump differential pressure test as required by CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .a.1, but the requirement that the AFW pumps are at the specified recirculation flow rate is not included. ITS SR 3.7.5.6 requires verification of proper alignment of the required AFW flow paths by verifying flow from the condensate storage tanks to each steam generator. ITS SR 3.7.5.7 requires verification of proper alignment of the required MDFP flow paths by verifying flow from the condensate storage tanks to each steam generator. However the CTS 4.7.1.2.c.3, 4.7.1.2.1 .g.1, 4.7.1.7.d.1, and 4.7.1.7.f.1 requirements on the manner to verify flow and that an actual flow capacity check is not required is not included in the ITS. This changes the CTS by moving the requirements to perform the AFW pump differential pressure test at the specified recirculation flow rate, and to verify the flow path by either steam generator level change or Auxiliary Feedwater Safety Grade Flow Indication and that verification of flow capacity is not required to the Bases.
The removal of these details for performing Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS retains all necessary requirements to perform an AFW pump differential pressure test and to verify the flow path of each EFW train to both steam generators. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA06 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAPM, IST Program,or 1iP) CTS 4.7.1.2.1.d provides the Surveillance Requirement for the Auxiliary Feed Pump Turbine Steam Generator Level Control System and requires a CHANNEL CHECK every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST every 31 days, and a CHANNEL CALIBRATION every refueling interval (24 months). ITS 3.7.5 does not include these requirements.
This changes the CTS by moving these requirements to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
The removal of these Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .d is to ensure the AFW trains can properly control steam generator water level. The ITS Bases states that the AFW System is capable of supplying water to the steam generator to remove decay heat and other residual heat by delivering at least the minimum required flow rate to the steam generators. The ITS Bases also requires the controls to be OPERABLE. Therefore, these requirements are not necessary to be included in the ITS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Also this change is acceptable because the removed requirements will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is currently incorporated by Davis-Besse Page 7 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 109 of 461

This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because Surveillance Requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA07 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirementto the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAPM, /ST Program, orllP) CTS 4.7.1.2.1.e provides the Surveillance Requirement for the auxiliary feed pump suction pressure interlocks and requires a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST every 31 days and a CHANNEL CALIBRATION every refueling interval (24 months). ITS 3.7.5 does not include these requirements. This changes the CTS by moving these requirements to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
The removal of these Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .e is to ensure the AFW suction source can be swapped from the condensate storage tanks to the Service Water System on a low suction header pressure (i.e., on low level in the CSTs). However, LCO 3.7.6, "Condensate Storage Tanks (CSTs)," requires a sufficient water level be maintained in the CSTs to meet the safety analysis makeup water requirements. As stated in the ITS 3.7.6 Bases, this required water level (270,300 gallons) provides sufficient water inventory for 13 hours1.50463e-4 days <br />0.00361 hours <br />2.149471e-5 weeks <br />4.9465e-6 months <br /> at MODE 3 steaming to atmosphere, followed by a cooldown to decay heat removal entry conditions at the design cooldown rate. Furthermore, the CSTs are the primary source of water for the AFW trains. Therefore, these requirements are not necessary to be included in the ITS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Also this change is acceptable because the removed requirements will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is currently incorporated by reference into the UFSAR, thus any changes to the TRM are made under 10 CFR 50.59, which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because Surveillance Requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA08 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 4.7.1.7.b.3 requires verifying each manual or power operated valve in the MDFP flow path is capable of being repositioned to the correct position when in MODE 1 < 40% RTP and in MODES 2 and 3. It further clarifies that capable of being repositioned is demonstrated by verifying the presence of handwheels for all manual valves and the presence of either a handwheel or an available power supply for power operated valves. ITS SR 3.7.5.1 requires a similar Surveillance, however the manner in which the capability of repositioning the valves is demonstrated is not included. This changes the CTS by moving the details concerning how to demonstrate the capability to reposition the valves to the Bases.
The removal of these details for performing Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS retains all necessary requirements to verify the valves are in their proper position or can be aligned to their proper position. Also, this change Davis-Besse Page 8 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 110 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 111 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA09 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 4.7.1.7.c.1 requires verifying proper operation of each power operated and automatic valve in the MDFP train flow path to the AFW System. CTS 4.7.1.7.c.2 requires verifying the MDFP starts from the control room. ITS SR 3.7.5.3 requires operating the MDFP train. This changes the CTS by moving the details of how the Surveillance is conducted to the Bases.
The removal of these details for performing Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to periodically operate the MDFP train. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases.
Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA1 0 (Type 4 - Removal of LCO, SR, or other TS requirement to the TRM, UFSAR, ODCM, QAPM, /ST Program,or lIP) CTS 4.7.1.7.d.2 provides the Surveillance Requirement for the MDFP lube oil interlocks and requires verifying proper operation of the interlocks at least once each refueling interval (24 months).
ITS 3.7.5 does not include this Surveillance Requirement. This changes the CTS by moving this requirement to the TRM.
The removal of this Surveillance Requirement from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.7.d.2 is to ensure the MDFP lube oil interlock is functioning properly. The MDFP lube oil is provided to ensure the MDFP is not started unless sufficient lube oil pressure is established for pump operation.
ITS SR 3.7.5.3 requires operating the MDFP train every 92 days. In addition, the MDFP train is normally used to provide feedwater to the steam generators during a reactor startup until the reactor is at sufficient power to support the turbine driven main feedwater pumps. Therefore, operation of the MDFP train during this Surveillance and under these routine conditions would provide the opportunity to detect a problem with the MDFP lube oil interlocks that would inadvertently not allow the MDFP to be started. In addition, this interlock is for pump protection only. Therefore, this Surveillance Requirement is not necessary to be included in the ITS to provide adequate protection of the public health and safety. Also this change is acceptable because the removed requirements will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is currently incorporated by Davis-Besse Page 9 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 111 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 112 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) reference into the UFSAR, thus any changes to the TRM are made under 10 CFR 50.59, which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because a Surveillance Requirement is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category4 - Relaxation of Required Action) CTS 3.7.1.2 Action a requires an inoperable train of auxiliary feedwater be restored to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> for any condition of inoperability. ITS 3.7.5 ACTION A permits 7 days to restore the steam supply valve to an OPERABLE status when an AFW train is inoperable due to one inoperable steam supply valve or if an AFW train is inoperable in MODE 3 following refueling. This changes the CTS by extending the restoration time from 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to 7 days for an inoperable AFW train due to these conditions.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.1.2 Action a is to provide a limit on the length of time the unit may remain in the MODES of Applicability with one AFW train inoperable.
This change is acceptable because the Required Actions are used to establish remedial measures that must be taken in response to the degraded conditions in order to minimize risk associated with continued operation while providing time to repair inoperable features. The Required Actions are consistent with safe operation under the specified condition, considering the OPERABLE status of redundant systems and features. This includes the capacity and capability of remaining systems and features, a reasonable time for repairs or replacement, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during the repair period. One steam supply for the inoperable AFW train remains OPERABLE, which will provide the required steam flow for the train to produce the design flow rate and therefore, the capability to mitigate most analyzed accidents is preserved. An inoperable AFW train in MODE 3 following a refueling is acceptable because the remaining AFW train and the MDFP train remain OPERABLE and the decay heat in the Reactor Coolant System is low. The probability of an event occurring during the extended outage time that would require the inoperable steam supply or AFW train to function is low. The ITS ACTION provides adequate assurance that the AFW trains and MDFP trains will continue to meet the assumptions stated in the safety analyses for the EFW to mitigate postulated accidents. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Required Actions are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L02 (Category4- Relaxation of RequiredAction) CTS 3.7.1.2 Action c states that if steam generator inlet valve AF 599 or AF 608 is closed, to re-open the closed valve within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> or be in HOT STANDBY (MODE 3) within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and HOT SHUTDOWN (MODE 4) within the following 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. When either of these two valves is closed during normal operations, both AFW trains and the MDFP train are inoperable. However, no other conditions describing inoperability of the AFW trains are provided. Thus, if the two AFW trains are inoperable for other reasons, CTS 3.0.3, which requires a unit shutdown to commence within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, must be entered. ITS 3.7.5 ACTION E provides specific actions when all three EFW trains are inoperable, and requires action to be initiated immediately to restore one EFW train to OPERABLE status. In addition, the Note to ITS 3.7.5 Required Davis-Besse Page 10 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 112 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 113 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW)
Action E.1 states that LCO 3.0.3 and all other LCO Required Actions requiring MODE changes are suspended until one EFW train is restored to OPERABLE status. This changes the CTS by providing an Action to maintain the unit in the current MODE when both AFW trains and the MDFP train are inoperable, and require actions to be immediately initiated to restore one of the EFW trains to OPERABLE status, in lieu of requiring a unit shutdown within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.
The purpose of the CTS 3.7.1.2 Actions is to place the unit in a MODE in which the LCO is not applicable when both AFW trains are inoperable. However, ifthe MDFP train is also inoperable, no EFW is available. In this situation, the unit is in a seriously degraded condition with no safety related means for conducting a cooldown, and only limited means for conducting a cooldown with non-safety grade equipment. In such a condition, the unit should not be perturbed by any action, including a power change, which might result in a trip. Thus, Required Action E.1 is modified by a Note indicating that LCO 3.0.3 and all LCO Required Action requiring MODE changes are suspended until at least one EFW train is restored to OPERABLE status. Furthermore, the seriousness of this condition requires that action be started immediately to restore at least one EFW train to OPERABLE status. Therefore, the ITS 3.7.5 Required Action E.1 provides the appropriate compensatory measures when three EFW trains are inoperable and are considered acceptable. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Required Actions are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L03 (Category 7- Relaxation Of Surveillance Frequency, Non-24 Month Type Change) CTS 4.7.1.2.1.a.1 states that each AFW train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once every 92 days "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS" by verifying the differential pressure of each AFW pump is greater than or equal to the required differential pressure at the specified recirculation flow rate.
CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .b.1 requires verifying each AFW train valve (power operated or automatic) in the flow path is in its correct position at least once per 31 days "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS." ITS SR 3.7.5.2 and SR 3.7.5.1 require similar tests every 92 days and every 31 days, respectively, but do not include the "STAGGERED TEST BASIS" requirement. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement to test on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .a.1 and 4.7.1.2.1 .b.1 is to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the AFW trains. This change is acceptable because the new Surveillance Frequencies provide an acceptable level of equipment reliability.
This change deletes the requirement to perform CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .a.1 and 4.7.1.2.1.b.1 on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The intent of a requirement for staggered testing is to increase reliability of the component/system being tested.
A number of studies have been performed that demonstrate that staggered testing has negligible impact on component reliability. These analytical and subjective analyses have determined that staggered testing 1) is operationally difficult, 2) has negligible impact on component reliability, 3) has no impact on failure frequency, 4) introduces additional stress on components potentially causing increased component failures rates and component wearout, 5) results in reduced redundancy during testing, and 6) increases likelihood of human error by increasing testing intervals. Therefore, the AFW trains staggered testing requirements have been deleted. This change is designated as less restrictive Davis-Besse Page 11 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 113 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 114 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) because the intervals between performances of the Surveillances for the two AFW trains can be larger or smaller under the ITS than under the CTS.
L04 (Category 6 - Relaxation of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .b.1 requires the verification that each power operated or automatic valve in the AFW flow path is in its correct position. CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .b.2 requires the verification that all manual valves in the auxiliary feedwater pump suction and discharge lines that affect the system's capacity to deliver water to the steam generator are locked in their proper position. CTS 4.7.1.7.b.1 requires the verification that all manual valves in the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump suction and discharge lines that affect the system's capacity to deliver water to the steam generator are locked in their proper position. CTS 4.7.1.7.b.2 requires the verification that each power operated valve in the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump flow path is in its correct position when > 40% RTP. CTS 4.7.1.7.b.3 requires verifying each manual or power operated valve in the MDFP flow path is capable of being repositioned to the correct position when in MODE 1 < 40% RTP and in MODES 2 and 3. ITS SR 3.7.5.1 requires verifying that each EFW manual, power operated, and automatic valve in each water flow path and in both steam supply flow paths to the AFW pumps, that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in the correct position (or can be aligned as allowed by the Note to SR 3.7.5.1). This changes the CTS by only requiring the verification of EFW valves that are not locked, sealed or otherwise secured in position.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.1.b.1, 4.7.1.2.1.b.2, 4.7.1.7.b.1, 4.7.1.7.b.2, and 4.7.1.7.b.3 is to verify that the automatic, power operated, and manual valves in the AFW and MDFP flow paths are aligned to the correct position (or can be aligned under certain conditions). This change is acceptable because the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. The verification of valves that are aligned and secured into the required safety position is unnecessary. Valves secured in the safety position will satisfy the safety analyses assumptions for the mitigation of analyzed accidents. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L05 (Category 6 - Relaxation of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.7.1.2.1.c.1 requires that each AFW automatic valve in the flow path actuate to the correct position on an SFRCS actuation signal. ITS SR 3.7.5.4 requires a similar Surveillance. However, it is modified by a Note that states the SR is not required to be performed until 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after reaching 800 psig in the steam generators. This changes the CTS by providing an allowance to delay the performance of required testing without requiring the associated AFW train to be declared inoperable.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .c.1 is to ensure the AFW train is OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, and 3. The allowance provides for entry into MODE 3 before requiring the testing of the automatic valves. This change is acceptable because the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. This change is necessary because the steam generator pressure may Davis-Besse Page 12 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 114 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 115 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) be insufficient in MODE 4 to properly test the AFW train. One manner of performing this SR would be to combine this test with the test required by CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .c.2, which tests the automatic start of the AFW pump using the same signal as is required to test the automatic valves. The majority of SRs demonstrate equipment is, in fact, OPERABLE when the tests are performed.
Inconsistent testing results may result if testing of the AFW train is required before establishing a sufficient steam generator pressure. The allowance will permit the establishment of stable unit conditions and sufficient steam generator pressure to test the AFW pump and valves and will allow an accurate and consistent method for the testing. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L06 (Category6 - Relaxation Of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .c.1 and 4.7.1.2.1 .c.2 require verification that each automatic valve in the AFW flow path actuates to its correct position and each AFW pump starts automatically, respectively, on an SFRCS actuation test signal. ITS SR 3.7.12.3, which performs a similar test, specifies that the signal may be from either an "actual" or simulated (i.e., test) signal. This changes the CTS by explicitly allowing the use of either an actual or simulated signal for the test.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.1 .c.1 and 4.7.1.2.1 .c.2 is to ensure the AFW trains actuate upon receipt of an actuation signal. This change is acceptable because the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Equipment cannot discriminate between an "actual," "simulated," or "test" signal and, therefore, the results of the testing are unaffected by the type of signal used to initiate the test. This change allows taking credit for unplanned actuation if sufficient information is collected to satisfy the Surveillance test requirements. The change also allows a simulated signal to be used, if necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L07 (Category5- Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.7.1.2.f and 4.7.1.7.e (including footnote *) describe tests that must be performed following modification or repairs to the AFW trains and MDFP trains, respectively.
ITS 3.7.5 does not include these testing requirements. This changes the CTS by deleting these post-maintenance Surveillance Requirements.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.2.f and 4.7.1.7.e is to verify the OPERABILITY of the AFW trains and MDFP train following completion of modifications to the AFW or MDFP trains that may alter the flow characteristics. This change is acceptable because the deleted Surveillance Requirements are not needed to verify that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Thus, appropriate equipment continues to be tested in a manner and at a frequency necessary to give confidence that the equipment can perform its assumed safety function. Any time the OPERABILITY of a system or component has been affected by repair, maintenance, modification, or replacement of a component, post-maintenance testing is required to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the system or component. This is described in the Bases for ITS SR 3.0.1 and Davis-Besse Page 13 of 14 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 115 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 116 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW) required under ITS SR 3.0.1. The OPERABILITY requirements for the AFW System and MDFP train are described in the Bases for ITS 3.7.5. Post-maintenance testing will continue to be performed and an explicit requirement in the Technical Specifications is not necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because Surveillances which are required in the CTS will not be required in the ITS.
L08 (Category 5 - Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.7.1.7.d.3 requires verifying, at least once each refueling interval (i.e., 24 months), proper operation of manual valves by shifting the MDFP between the Main Feedwater System and the AFW System. ITS 3.7.5 does not include this specific Surveillance Requirement. This changes the CTS by deleting a Surveillance Requirement.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.7.d.3 is to demonstrate the capability of shifting the discharge flow path of the MDFP from the Main Feedwater System to the AFW System. The OPERABILITY of the MDFP train, as described in the ITS 3.7.5 Bases, requires it to be capable of providing flow to the AFW System flow path, since this is the flow path for the emergency feedwater mode. This change is acceptable because this capability is already demonstrated at least once every 24 months through routine operation of the MDFP train. The MDFP train is normally used to supply feedwater flow through the Main Feedwater System flow path during a reactor startup until reactor power is sufficient to support operation of the turbine driven Main Feedwater pumps. At that time, the MDFP is realigned to provide flow to the AFW System. ITS SR 3.7.5.1 requires the MDFP train valves to be in their correct position when in MODE 1 > 40% RTP. Prior to that point, the Note to the SR allows the valves to be in the non-correct position provided they are capable of being realigned to the correct position. Thus, following a reactor startup the valves will be required to be repositioned from the Main Feedwater System to the AFW System in order to meet ITS SR 3.7.5.1.
Therefore, it is unnecessary to specify an additional Surveillance Requirement to prove this capability. This change is designated as less restrictive because a specific Surveillance Requirement in the CTS is not included in the ITS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 125 of 461 JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW)
- 1. The Davis-Besse design for Emergency Feedwater includes the Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) System and the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump (MDFP); there is no "Emergency Feedwater System." The AFW System consists of two turbine driven pumps; the AFW System does not include any motor driven pumps. Therefore, the LCO title has been changed to delete the word "System" and the LCO has been modified to include both types of Emergency Feedwater trains, the AFW trains and the MDFP train. This is consistent with the current licensing basis. Furthermore, since the AFW System includes only turbine driven pumps, any reference to "turbine driven EFW," "turbine driven EFW pump," or "steam turbine driven" has been deleted and replaced with the term "AFW train" or "AFW," as applicable. Also, the term "motor driven EFW" has been replaced with "MDFP" consistent with the Davis-Besse terminology. Due to the above described change, the words in the LCO Note describing an EFW train have been modified to clearly state the described EFW train is the MDFP train and the term EFW train in ISTS ACTION F has been changed to MDFP train.
- 2. The brackets have been removed and the proper plant specific information/value has been provided.
- 3. These bracketed Surveillances have not been included in the Davis-Besse ITS, as described in the Discussion of Changes for ITS 3.7.5.
- 4. The Davis-Besse design includes two turbine driven AFW pumps. Therefore, the number "One" has been added to the first Condition of ISTS 3.7.5 Condition A for clarity.
- 5. The term "affected equipment" in ISTS 3.7.5 Required Action A.1 has been changed to "AFW train" for clarity since the affected equipment in this ACTION is the AFW train.
- 6. ISTS SR 3.7.5.1 has been modified by the addition of a Note. The Note applies to the MDFP train, and is consistent with the current licensing basis. At Davis-Besse, the MDFP train is also used during a unit startup to supply feedwater until the turbine driven main feedwater pumps can be put in service. When operating in this mode, the MDFP is aligned to the Main Feedwater System, not the AFW System (the emergency feedwater alignment).
- 7. ISTS SR 3.7.5.2 provides the testing requirements for the EFW pumps. This Surveillance has been modified to only apply to the AFW pumps (the turbine driven pumps) and new SR 3.7.5.3 has been added to provide the Davis-Besse specific Surveillance for the MDFP. Due to this addition, the term "for the turbine driven EFW pumps," in the SR 3.7.5.2 Note is not needed and has been deleted. Subsequent SRs have been renumbered.
- 8. The proper Davis-Besse Surveillance Frequency has been provided.
- 9. The MDFP train is not an automatically actuated train; it is manually actuated.
Therefore, ISTS SR 3.7.5.3 and SR 3.7.5.4 have been modified to only apply to the AFW trains (which are automatically actuated), consistent with current licensing basis. In addition, since the AFW trains are not required to be OPERABLE in MODE 4, the Notes to the two SRs exempting the SRs in MODE 4 (ITS SR 3.7.5.4 Davis-Besse Page 1 of 2 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 125 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 126 of 461 JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS ITS 3.7.5, EMERGENCY FEEDWATER (EFW)
Note 2 and ITS SR 3.7.5.5 Note 2) are unnecessary and have been deleted. Due to these deletions, the Note number assigned to the remaining Note in each of the SRs has been deleted, consistent with the format of the ISTS.
- 10. The Frequency for performing ISTS SR 3.7.5.5 is different for the AFW trains and the MDFP trains. The MDFP train can be tested in MODE 4, thus the allowance to not test the MDFP until after entering MODE 3 is not needed. Therefore, the Surveillance has been modified to only apply to the AFW trains and new ITS SR 3.7.5.7 has been added to provide the Davis-Besse specific Surveillance Frequency for the MDFP. In addition, Davis-Besse is also required to perform these Surveillances every refueling interval (24 months). This Frequency has been maintained in the ITS (through the use of the term "following refueling") since the ISTS Frequency may not ensure a test is performed every 24 months. (The Frequency only requires performance if the unit has been in MODE 5 or 6 or defueled for a cumulative time period of greater than 30 days, and it is possible for Davis-Besse to complete a refueling outage in less time than 30 days.)
- 11. Changes made to be consistent with changes made to another Specification (i.e.,
Davis-Besse has two condensate storage tanks).

BACKGROUND The EFW Sstem auto tically supplies feed ter to the sfeamr Iigenerato to remove 0ecay heat from the eactor Cook(nt System (RCS) pon the 1o of normal feedwate upl I.The pumps take suction Ithrougn 5eparate and i epen ent iction lineslfrom the condensate storage tanKk(CST (LCO 3.7.6, "Condensate Storage Tank CS )"), and pump to the steam generator secondary side through the
- ~jJ-.r-EAnozzles. The steam generators function as a heat sink for core decay heat. The heat load is dissipated by releasing steam to the atmosphere from the steam generators via the main steam safety valves (MSSVs) (LCO 3.7.1, "Main Steam Safety Valves (MSSVs)"), or atmospheric vent valvesl(AVVs) (LCO 3.7.4. "Atmosphefic Vent Valvesl A s)". e main condenser s available, steam mayb/ released via efh--Turbin)6 Bypass System an recirculated to the CST.

The-steam turbine drivenEWpumps receive steam from F either of the two main steam headers, upstream of the main steam wate-ter via two isolation valves (MSIVs). The E ystem supplies corn neaaer lheaders, capable of feeding either or steam generatoru. The 100% capacity each is sufficient to remove decay heat and cool the unit to $ecay Ieat Femoval Eyste (DH+R entry conditions. The [E!yýstem normally receives a supply of water from the CSJ. A safety grade source of water is also supplied by 5 the Service Water System (SWS). Automatic valves on the supply piping open on low pressure in the supply piping to transfer the water supply from the CST to the SWS. A third source of water can be supplied byAFW E[ manuay aigning the fire protection header to the ump suction.D Thus, the requir ments for diversity iymotive power sou s for the EFW System are t.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 129 of 461 B 3.7.5 0 INSERT 1 Emergency Feedwater (EFW) consists of two Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) trains and the Motor Driven Feedwater Pump (MDFP) train.
0 INSERT 2 The AFW System provides a safety related source of feedwater to the secondary side of the steam generators in the event of a loss of normal feedwater flow to remove reactor decay heat.
0 INSERT 3 The MDFP train provides feedwater to the steam generators during normal plant startup and shutdown. The MDFP train is also designed to provide a backup supply of feedwater to the steam generators in the event of a total loss of both AFW and main feedwater (MFW). The MDFP train can be aligned to take suction from the condensate storage tanks, deaerator storage tanks, or the SWS. The MDFP discharge can be aligned to either the AFW System or the MFW System. During plant operation when reactor power is > 40% RTP, the MDFP train is aligned as an EFW train and is capable of delivering water to both steam generators. In addition, since the MDFP uses the AFW flowpaths to discharge to the steam generators, the position of the steam generator inlet valves affects the MDFP in addition to the AFW pumps.
The MDFP train is non-safety related and provides a diverse means of supplying emergency feedwater to the steam generators.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.5.1 tod REQUIREMENTS Verifying the correct alignment for manual, power operated, and automatic valves in the EFW water and steam supply flow paths provides assurance that the proper flow paths exist for EFW operation. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since those valves are verified to be in the correct position prior to locking, sealing, or securing. This SR also does not apply to valves that cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves. This Surveillance does not require any testing or valve manipulation; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of potentially being mispositioned are in the correct position.
The 31 day Frequency is based on engineering judgment, is consistent with the procedural controls governing valve operation, and ensures correct valve positions.
SR 3.7.5.2 Verifying that each E pump's developed head at the flow test point is Q greater than or equal to the required developed head ensures that pump performance has not degraded during the cycle. Flow and differential head are normal tests of pump performance required by the ASME Code (Ref. 3). Because it is undesirable to introduce cold FM into the steam generators while they are operating, this test is performed on recirculation flow.
This test confirms one point on the pump design curve and is indicative of overall performance. Such inservice tests confirm component OPERABILITY, trend performance, and detect incipient failures by indicating abnormal performance. Performance of inservice testing in the ASME Code (Ref- 3), at 3 month intervals, satisfies this requirement-BVVOG STS B 3.7.5-6 Rev. 3.1, 12/01/05 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 136 of 461

The capability of the valves to be locally realigned to the correct position is met if a handwheel is present for each manual valve and either a handwheel is present or a power supply is available for each power operated valve. This Note is necessary because the MDFP train is normally aligned to the Main Feedwater System during a reactor startup.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 149 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.6, CONDENSATE STORAGE TANKS (CSTs)
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 The CTS 3.7.1.3 Actions provide two compensatory actions for when the CSTs are found to be inoperable. CTS 3.7.1.3 Action a allows four hours to restore the CSTs to OPERABLE status or be in MODE 4 within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.
CTS 3.7.1.3 Action b alternatively allows 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the Service Water System as a backup supply to the Auxiliary Feedwater System and restore the CSTs to OPERABLE status within 7 days or be in MODE 4 within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. ITS 3.7.6 Required Action A.1 requires the verification by administrative means of an OPERABLE backup water supply at a Completion Time of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> thereafter and Required Action A.2 requires the CSTs to be restored to OPERABLE status within 7 days.
This changes the CTS by deleting the alternative requirement in CTS 3.7.1.3 Action a to restore the CSTs to OPERABLE status within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.
This change is acceptable because the requirements have not changed. Davis-Besse always has the opportunity to restore the equipment to OPERABLE status. ITS LCO 3.0.2 states that upon discovery of a failure to meet an LCO, the Required Actions of the associated Conditions shall be met. If the LCO is met or is no longer applicable prior to expiration of the specified Completion Time(s), completion of the Required Action(s) is not required unless otherwise stated. Therefore based on ITS LCO 3.0.2 restoration is always an option. This change is considered administrative because the technical requirements have not changed.
A03 CTS 4.7.1.3.1 states that the CSTs shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> by verifying the water level is within its limits when the tank is the supply source for the Auxiliary Feedwater System. ITS SR 3.7.6.1 states that the usable volume in the CSTs must be verified to be > 270,300 gallons. This changes the CTS by deleting detail that the Surveillance must be performed when the CSTs are the supply source for the Auxiliary Feedwater System.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.1.3.1 is to ensure the CSTs are OPERABLE when they are the supply source for the Auxiliary Feedwater System. CTS 4.0.3 states, in part, "Surveillance requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment." ITS SR 3.0.1 states "Surveillances do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment or variables outside specified limits." If the CSTs are not capable of supplying the Auxiliary Feedwater System, the CSTs are considered inoperable and the ITS 3.7.6 ACTION A must be entered. Since inoperable equipment does not have to be tested, the removal of the phrase "when the tanks are the supply source for the auxiliary feedwater pumps" is acceptable. This Davis-Besse Page 1 of 3 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 149 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 150 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.6, CONDENSATE STORAGE TANKS (CSTs) change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A04 This change to CTS 3.7.1.3 is provided in the Davis-Besse ITS consistent with License Amendment Request No. 05-0007, submitted to the USNRC for approval in FENOC letter Serial Number 3198, from Mark B. Bezilla (FENOC) to USNRC, dated April 12, 2007. As such, this change is administrative.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 The CTS requirements on the CSTs are applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3.
ITS 3.7.6 is applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3, and in addition, MODE 4 when a steam generator is relied upon for heat removal. Consistent with this change in Applicability, the requirement to be in MODE 4 "without reliance on steam generator for heat removal" is added as indicated in ITS 3.7.6 Required Action B.2. This changes the CTS requirements by requiring the CSTs to be OPERABLE in MODE 4 when a SG is relied upon for heat removal.
This change is acceptable because the CSTs may be needed in MODE 4 ifa decay heat removal (DHR) loop has not yet been placed in service. If offsite power were to be lost when the DHR loop is not yet in service, the steam generators, fed from an emergency feedwater pump with the CSTs providing the suction source, would be relied upon for decay heat removal. The change is designated as more restrictive because the CSTs are now required to be OPERABLE in MODE 4 when a steam generator is relied upon for heat removal.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 3.7.1.3 Action b requires the Service Water System to be demonstrated as a backup supply to the Auxiliary Feedwater System at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> by verifying that the Service Water System is OPERABLE whenever the Service Water System is the supply source for the Auxiliary Feedwater System. ITS 3.7.6 Required Action A.1 requires the verification of OPERABILITY of a backup water supply. This changes the CTS by moving the detail that the Service Water System provides the backup supply for the Auxiliary Feedwater System from the CTS to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications, is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to verify by administrative means OPERABILITY of a backup water supply when the CSTs are found to be inoperable. Also, this change is acceptable because the Davis-Besse Page 2 of 3 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 150 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 151 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.6, CONDENSATE STORAGE TANKS (CSTs) removed information will be adequately controlled in ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category3 - Relaxation of Completion Time) With the CSTs inoperable, CTS 3.7.1.3 Action a requires restoration of the CSTs within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> or be in MODE 4 within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, while CTS 3.7.1.3 Action b requires demonstration of OPERABILITY of the backup supply within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and restoration of the CSTs to OPERABLE status within 7 days or be in MODE 4 within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. ITS 3.7.6 Required Action A.1 requires the verification of OPERABILITY of the backup water supply within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and Required Action A.2 requires the CSTs to be restored to OPERABLE status within 7 days.
If any of these Required Actions are not met within the associated Completion Time, ITS 3.7.6 ACTION B requires the unit to be in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in MODE 4 without reliance on steam generator for heat removal within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
This changes the time to be in MODE 4 without reliance on the steam generators for heat removal from 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> and adds an additional requirement to be in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.13 Actions a and b is to place the unit in a condition in which it does not rely on the steam generators for heat removal when the CSTs are inoperable. This change is acceptable because the Completion Time is consistent with safe operation under the specified Condition, considering the OPERABLE status of the redundant systems or features. This includes the capacity and capability of remaining systems or features, a reasonable time for repairs or replacement, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during the allowed Completion Time. Allowing 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to be in MODE 4 without reliance on the steam generators for heat removal recognizes that additional time is required from the time MODE 4 is entered until the steam generators are not relied upon for heat removal. The new requirement that the unit be in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> ensures a unit shutdown is commenced within a reasonable period of time upon failure to restore the CSTs to OPERABLE status within the allowed Completion Time. This change is designated as less restrictive because additional time is allowed to restore parameters to within the LCO limits than was allowed in the CTS.

DAVIS-BESSE, UNIT I 3/4 7-14 Amendment No. 216 Page 1 of 1 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 166 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 167 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.7, COMPONENT COOLING WATER (CCW) SYSTEM ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 4.7.3.1 does not contain an explicit reference to isolating CCW flow to individual components. ITS SR 3.7.7.1 contains a Note which states, "Isolation of CCW flow to individual components does not render CCW System inoperable."
This changes CTS by adding an allowance that is not explicitly stated in the CTS.
The purpose of the CCW System Technical Specification is to provide assurance that CCW is available to the appropriate plant components. This change is acceptable because by current use and application of the CTS, isolation of a component supplied with CCW does not necessarily result in the CCW System being considered inoperable, but the respective component may be declared inoperable for its system. This change clarifies this application. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A03 CTS 4.7.3.1.a requires verification that each CCW valve (manual, power operated, or automatic) servicing safety related equipment that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in its correct position. ITS SR 3.7.7.1 requires verification that each CCW manual, power operated, and automatic valve in the flow path servicing safety related equipment that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in the correct position. This changes the CTS by adding the words "in the flow path" to CTS 4.7.3.1.a.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.3.1 .a is to ensure all valves in the CCW flow path are in the correct position. The addition of the words "in the flow path" does not change the intent of the Surveillance Requirement. Each manual, power operated, and automatic valve servicing safety related equipment that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position will continue to be verified to be in the correct position. Each CCW automatic valve in the flow path that is not locked, sealed or otherwise secured in position, will still be checked to ensure it actuates to the correct position on an actual or simulated actuation signal. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 The Action for CTS 3.7.3.1 allows 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to restore an inoperable CCW loop to OPERABLE status. ITS 3.7.7 ACTION A has this same requirement, however two Notes have been included. The ITS 3.7.7 Required Action A.1 Note 1 requires entry into the applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.8.1, Davis-Besse Page 1 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 167 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 168 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.7, COMPONENT COOLING WATER (CCW) SYSTEM "AC Sources- Operating," for an emergency diesel generator made inoperable by CCW. The ITS 3.7.7 Required Action A.1 Note 2 requires entry into the applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.4.6, "RCS Loops -
MODE 4," for decay heat removal loop made inoperable by CCW. This changes the CTS by explicitly specifying the applicable Conditions and Required Actions of ITS LCO 3.4.6 must be entered.
The purpose of the Action for CTS 3.7.3.1 is to ensure the inoperable CCW loop is restored to OPERABLE status within a reasonable time. This change is acceptable because it provides additional assurance that the appropriate compensatory actions are taken for an inoperable emergency diesel generator or decay heat removal loop that results from a loss of a CCW loop. This change is designated as more restrictive because it adds the explicit cascading requirement.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type I - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 3.7.3.1 states that two "independent" CCW loops shall be OPERABLE. ITS 3.7.7 requires two CCW loops to be OPERABLE, but does not contain the detail that the loops must be independent. This changes the CTS by moving the detail that the CCW loops are independent to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement for two CCW loops to be OPERABLE. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 4.7.3.1 .b.1 and 4.7.3.1 .b.2 require verification of the automatic actuation of CCW components on an "SFAS" test signal. ITS SR 3.7.7.2 and SR 3.7.7.3 do not state the specific type of signal, but only specify an actual or simulated "actuation" signal. This changes CTS by moving the type of actuation signal (i.e., SFAS) to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate Davis-Besse Page 2 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 168 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 169 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.7, COMPONENT COOLING WATER (CCW) SYSTEM protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to verify that appropriate equipment actuates upon receipt of an actuation signal.
Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5 of the ITS. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Specification.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category6- Relaxation Of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.7.3.1 .b.1 and 4.7.3.1 .b.2 require verification of the automatic actuation of component cooling water components on an SFAS "test" signal. ITS SR 3.7.7.2 and SR 3.7.7.3 specify that the signal may be from either an "actual" or simulated (i.e., test) signal. This changes the CTS by explicitly allowing the use of either an actual or simulated signal for the test.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.3.1 .b.1 and 4.7.3.1 .b.2 is to ensure the CCW components operate correctly upon receipt of an actuation signal. This change is acceptable because the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Equipment cannot discriminate between an "actual," "simulated," or "test" signal and, therefore, the results of the testing are unaffected by the type of signal used to initiate the test. This change allows taking credit for unplanned actuation if sufficient information is collected to satisfy the Surveillance test requirements. The change also allows a simulated signal to be used, if necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L02 (Category5 - Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.7.3.1 .b.1 requires verification that each CCW automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct position. ITS SR 3.7.7.2 requires verification that each CCW automatic valve in the flow path "that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position" actuates to the correct position. This changes the CTS by excluding those valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position from the verification.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.3.1.b.1 is to provide assurance that if an event occurred requiring CCW valves to be in their correct position, then those requiring automatic actuation would actuate to their correct position. This change is acceptable because the deleted Surveillance is not necessary to verify that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Thus, appropriate equipment continues to be tested to in a manner and at a Frequency necessary to provide confidence that the equipment can perform its assumed safety function. Those automatic valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position are not required to actuate on a component cooling water actuation .signal in order to perform their safety function because they are already Davis-Besse Page 3 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 169 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 170 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.7, COMPONENT COOLING WATER (CCW) SYSTEM in the required position. Testing such valves would not provide any additional assurance of OPERABILITY. Valves that are required to actuate will continue to be tested. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 177 of 461 B 3.7.7 O INSERT 1 The CCW System consists of three pumps, three heat exchangers, a surge tank and two closed cooling loops. Each closed cooling loop is capable of serving one train of Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) components and the associated emergency diesel generator (EDG). Each closed cooling loop is supplied by one of the three pumps. Three pumps and heat exchangers are provided so any one of the pump-heat exchanger units can be removed from service for maintenance or repair without reducing the capability or redundancy of the CCW System. Two of the CCW pumps are powered from the associated essential bus. The third CCW pump can be powered from either essential bus through interlocked supply breakers and can manually be aligned to supply either CCW loop.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.7.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR is modified by a Note indicating that the isolation of the CCW flow to individual components may render those components inoperable, but does not affect the OPERABILITY of the CCW System.
Verifying the correct alignment for manual, power operated, and automatic valves in the CCW flow path provides assurance that the proper flow paths exist for CCW operation. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since they are verified to be in the correct position prior to locking, sealing, or securing. This SR also does not apply to valves which cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves. This Surveillance does not require any testing or valve manipulation; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of potentially being mispositioned are in their correct position.
The 31 day Frequency is based on engineering judgment, is consistent with the procedural controls governing valve operation, and ensures correct valve positions.
SR 3.7.7.2 (i.e., SFAS) This SR verifies proper automatic operation of the CCW valves on an actual or simulated actuation'signal. The CCW System is a normally operating system that cannot be fully actuated as part of routine testing during normal operation.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 4.7.4.1 does not contain an explicit reference to isolating SWS flow to individual components. ITS SR 3.7.8.1 contains a Note which states, "Isolation of SWS flow to individual components does not render the SWS inoperable."
This changes CTS by adding an allowance that is not explicitly stated in the CTS.
The purpose of the SWS Technical Specification is to provide assurance that service water is available to the appropriate plant components. This change is acceptable because by current use and application of the CTS, isolation of a component supplied with service water does not necessarily result in the SWS being considered inoperable, but the respective component may be declared inoperable for its system. This change clarifies this application. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A03 CTS 4.7.4.1.a requires verification that each SWS valve (manual, power operated, or automatic) servicing safety related equipment that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in its correct position. ITS SR 3.7.8.1 requires verification that each SWS manual, power operated, and automatic valve in the flow path servicing safety related equipment that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in the correct position. This changes the CTS by adding the words "in the flow path" to CTS 4.7.4.1.a.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.4.1 .a is to ensure all valves in the SWS flow path are in the correct position. The addition of the words "in the flow path" does not change the intent of the Surveillance Requirement. Each manual, power operated, and automatic valve servicing safety related equipment that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position will continue to be verified to be in the correct position. Each SWS automatic valve in the flow path that is not locked, sealed or otherwise secured in position, will still be checked to ensure it actuates to the correct position on an actual or simulated actuation signal. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 The Action for CTS 3.7.4.1 allows 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to restore an inoperable SWS loop to OPERABLE status. ITS 3.7.8 ACTION A has this same requirement, however two Notes have been included. The ITS 3.7.8 Required Action A.1 Note 1 requires entry into the applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.8.1, Davis-Besse Page 1 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 188 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 189 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.8, SERVICE WATER SYSTEM (SWS)
"AC Sources- Operating," for emergency diesel generator made inoperable by SWS. The ITS 3.7.8 Required Action A.1 Note 2 requires entry into the applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.4.6, "RCS Loops -
MODE 4," for decay heat removal loop made inoperable by SWS. This changes the CTS by explicitly specifying the applicable Conditions and Required Actions of ITS LCO 3.4.6 must be entered.
The purpose of the Action for CTS 3.7.4.1 is to ensure the inoperable SWS loop is restored to OPERABLE status within a reasonable time. This change is acceptable because it provides additional assurance that the appropriate compensatory actions are taken for an inoperable emergency diesel generator or decay heat removal loop that result from a loss of an SWS loop. This change is designated as more restrictive because it adds the explicit cascading requirement.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type I - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 3.7.4.1 states that two "independent" SWS loops shall be OPERABLE. ITS 3.7.8 requires two SWS loops to be OPERABLE, but does not contain the detail that the loops must be independent. This changes the CTS by moving the detail that the SWS loops are independent to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement for two SWS loops to be OPERABLE. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type I - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 4.7.4.1.b.1 and 4.7.4.1.b.2 require verification of the automatic actuation of SWS components on an "SFAS" test signal. ITS SR 3.7.8.2 and SR 3.7.8.3 do not state the specific type of signal, but only specify an actual or simulated "actuation" signal. This changes CTS by moving the type of actuation signal (i.e., SFAS) to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate Davis-Besse Page 2 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 189 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 190 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.8, SERVICE WATER SYSTEM (SWS) protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to verify that appropriate equipment actuates upon receipt of an actuation signal.
Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5 of the ITS. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 6- Relaxation Of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.7.4.1 .b.1 and 4.7.4.1 .b.2 require verification of the automatic actuation of SWS components on an SFAS "test" signal. ITS SR 3.7.8.2 and SR 3.7.8.3 specify that the signal may be from either an "actual" or simulated (i.e., test) signal. This changes the CTS by explicitly allowing the use of either an actual or simulated signal for the test.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.4.1 .b.1 and 4.7.4.1 .b.2 is to ensure the SWS components operate correctly upon receipt of an actuation signal. This change is acceptable because it has been determined that the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Equipment cannot discriminate between an "actual," "simulated," or "test" signal and, therefore, the results of the testing are unaffected by the type of signal used to initiate the test. This change allows taking credit for unplanned actuation if sufficient information is collected to satisfy the Surveillance test requirements.
The change also allows a simulated signal to be used, if necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L02 (Category5 - Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.7.4.1 .b.1 requires verification that each SWS automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct position. ITS SR 3.7.8.2 requires verification that each SWS automatic valve in the flow path "that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position" actuates to the correct position. This changes the CTS by excluding those SWS automatic valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position from the verification.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.4.1 .b.1 is to provide assurance that if an event occurred requiring the SWS valves to be in their correct position, then those requiring automatic actuation would actuate to their correct position. This change is acceptable because the deleted Surveillance Requirement is not necessary to verify that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Thus, appropriate equipment continues to be tested to in a manner and at a Frequency necessary to provide confidence that the equipment can perform its assumed safety function. Those automatic valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position are not required to actuate on an SWS actuation signal in order to perform their safety function because they are already Davis-Besse Page 3 of 4 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 190 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 191 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.8, SERVICE WATER SYSTEM (SWS) in the required position. Testing such valves would not provide any additional assurance of OPERABILITY. Valves that are required to actuate will continue to be tested. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.

' FSAR, SectionMS.2M (Ref. 2). This provides for a gradual reduction in the temperature of this fluid, as it is supplied to the Reactor Coolant System 0 (RCS) by the afetnjection pumps.
The SWS is designed to perform its function with a single failure of any active component, assuming loss of offsite power.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 198 of 461 B 3.7.8 0 INSERT 1 The SWS consists of three pumps and two independent essential load cooling loops.
Each essential load cooling loop is supplied by one of three pumps. One pump normally supplies the essential loads for its associated loop, and the second pump supplies the essential loads for its associated loop and all the non-essential loads.
Three pumps are provided so that any one of the pumps can be removed from service for maintenance or repair without reducing the capability or redundancy of the SWS.
Two of the SWS pumps are powered from the associated essential bus. The third SWS pump can be powered from either essential bus through interlocked supply breakers and can manually be aligned to supply either SWS loop.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.8.1 REQUIREMENTS Verifying the correct alignment for manual, power operated, and automatic valves in the SWS flow path provides assurance that the proper flow paths exist for SWS operation. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since they are verified to be in the correct position prior to locking, sealing, or securing. This SR does not require any testing or valve manipulation; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of potentially being mispositioned are in the correct position. This SR also does not apply to valves that cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves.
The 31 day Frequency is based on engineering judgment, is consistent with the procedural controls governing valve operation, and ensures correct valve positions.
This SR is modified by a Note indicating that the isolation of the SWS components or systems may render those components inoperable but does not affect the OPERABILITY of the SWS.

The purpose of the CTS 3.7.5.1 Action time limit to reach MODE 3 and MODE 5 is to provide an appropriate amount of time for the unit to be cooled down to MODE 5 conditions, via MODE 3, in a controlled manner. This change is acceptable because the proposed time is still limited, and provides additional time to reach MODES 3 and 5 in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems. Furthermore, the proposed time is consistent with the time normally provided to reach MODE 3 from MODE 1 and MODE 5 from MODE 4 in other CTS Specifications, such as CTS 3.0.3. This change is designated as less restrictive since more time is provided in the ITS to reach MODE 5 than is provided in the CTS.

BASES BACKGROUND The UHS provides a heat sink for process and operating heat from safety related components during a transient or accident as well as during normal operation. This is done utilizing the Service Water System (SWS).
The U HS has been defined as that complex of water sources, including necessary retaining structures (e.g., a pond with its dam, or a river with its dam), and the canals or conduits connecting the sources with, but not r
~'FSAR, including, the cooling water system intake structures, as discussed in the Sectionp.2.5 (Ref. 1). /If coo ig towers or portions teeo thej required to acco.,yplish the UHS sa,,t y functions, they hudle are 00 same requirerr)6nts as thM in. Teto principal functions of the IUHS 0 are the dissipation of residual heat after a reactor shutdown, and dissipation of residual heat after an accident.
A variety of co plexes is used to mee the requirements f r a UHS. A INSERT 1
- lake or an ocea may qualify as a sin le source. Ifthe coirnplex includes a water source ontained by a structure, it is likely that a *econd source 0 The basic perf rmance requirements are that a 30 day s pply of water be available, and hat the design basis t mperatures of safe related equipment not be exceeded. Basins of cooling towers g nerally include less than a 30 day supply of water, t pically 7 days or le s. A 30 day supply would e dependent on anot er source(s) and a akeup system(s) for eplenishing the sourc in the cooling tow r basin. For smaller basin sources, which may b1 as small as a 1 d supply, the systems for r plenishing the basin nd the backup sour e(s) become of sufficient imp rtance that the make p system itself mar be required to meet the sa e design criteria as a Engineered Safety Feature (e.g.,
single failure considerations and m Itiple makeup wate sources may be re uired .
Additional information on the design and operation of the system, along with a list of components served, can be found in Reference 1.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 216 of 461 B 3.7.9 0 INSERT 1 The ultimate heat sink is Lake Erie, and is the source of cooling water for the Service Water System. This is the single source for the ultimate heat sink, and the most severe natural phenomenon that can occur does not prevent a safe shutdown of the reactor. The Seismic Class I portion of the intake forebay provides adequate storage that is capable of providing sufficient cooling for at least 30 days. Procedures for ensuring a continued capability after this time are available. The ultimate heat sink provides adequate cooling for at least 30 days. An earthquake, which may result in loss of the source of lake water to the intake forebay, is the most severe event. This occurrence does not cause loss of the ultimate heat sink safety functions. The occurrence of extremely low lake level, which reduces the quantity of available water in the forebay, in conjunction with loss of the canal, was considered. The lowest level was assumed for the analysis, and this condition does not preclude the ultimate heat sink from performing its safety functions. The collapse of the intake pipe or complete closure of the canal was postulated for the analysis. It is demonstrated that additional sources of water are not required since the stored water in the forebay is adequate for safe shutdown. With regards to the amount of conservatism available for dissipating heat loads, the design of the ultimate heat sink is also consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.27, Revision 1 (Ref. 2).

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 228 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.10, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (CREVS)
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.7.6.1 does not provide an Action for two CREVS trains inoperable. Thus, CTS LCO 3.0.3 would be required to be entered. ITS 3.7.10 ACTION E requires immediate entry into ITS LCO 3.0.3 when two CREVS trains are inoperable in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4 for reasons other than Condition B. Condition B covers the inoperability of one or more CREVS trains due to an inoperable control room envelope (CRE) boundary in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4. This changes the CTS by providing a specific ACTION for two inoperable CREVS trains for reasons other than due to an inoperable CRE boundary. The change to allow one or more CREVS trains to be inoperable due to a CRE boundary is discussed in DOC L01.
The purpose of ITS 3.7.10 ACTION E is to require immediate entry into ITS LCO 3.0.3 when two CREVS trains are inoperable for reasons other than due to an inoperable CRE boundary. If two CREVS trains were inoperable in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4, then CTS LCO 3.0.3 would be entered because there is no other Action in CTS 3.7.6.1 that fits this condition. This change is acceptable because this same action is required in the CTS (except for the change discussed in DOC L01). This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 The CTS does not have any requirements for the Control Room Emergency Ventilation System during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies. ITS 3.7.10 Applicability includes "During movement of irradiated fuel assemblies." ITS 3.7.10 LCO Note 2 clarifies that only the CRE boundary is required to be OPERABLE during this new Applicability. ITS 3.7.10 ACTION D provides compensatory measures when the CRE boundary is inoperable during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies. This changes the CTS by adding additional Applicability criteria and an associated ACTION.
The purpose of ITS 3.7.10 is to provide assurance that the CREVS is OPERABLE when required to perform its function. Only the CRE boundary portion of the CREVS is required during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies.
The fuel handling accident analyses assumes only the control room is isolated; the CREVS trains are not assumed. This change is acceptable because it provides this Applicability with an associated ACTION to provide additional assurance that the CRE boundary is available to perform its function when required. This change is designated as more restrictive because it adds a new Applicability for the CRE boundary with an associated ACTION.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 229 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.10, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (CREVS)
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 3.7.6.1 states that two "independent" control room emergency ventilation systems shall be OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.7.10 states that two CREVS trains shall be OPERABLE. This changes the CTS by moving the details that the CREVS trains are "independent" from the CTS to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement that two CREVS trains be OPERABLE. The details concerning the independence of the trains do not need to appear in the Specification in order for the requirement to apply. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 4.7.6.1 .b states that each CREVS train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by initiating, from the control room, flow through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers and verifying that the train operates for a least 15 minutes. ITS SR 3.7.10.1 states to operate each CREVS train for
> 15 minutes. This changes the CTS by moving the details of how the Surveillance is conducted to the Bases.
The removal of these details for performing Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to periodically operate the CREVS trains. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases.
Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled.

"Station Vent Normal Range Radiation monitoring" test signal. ITS SR 3.7.10.3 does not state the specific type of signal, but only specifies an actual or simulated "actuation" signal. This changes CTS by moving the type of actuation signal (i.e., SFAS and Station Vent Normal Range Radiation Monitoring) to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to verify that appropriate equipment isolates upon receipt of an actuation signal.
Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5 of the ITS. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Specification.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 4 - Relaxation of Required Action) CTS 3.7.6.1 requires two CREVS trains to be OPERABLE. Included as part of the OPERABILITY of the CREVS trains is the control room envelope (CRE) boundary. CTS 3.7.6.1 Action a provides the actions for when one CREVS train is inoperable, however no actions are provided when both trains are inoperable, such as when the CRE boundary is inoperable. In this situation, CTS 3.0.3 must be entered, which requires a unit shutdown. In addition, CTS 3.7.6.1 does not address the CRE boundary being opened intermittently (such as for routine entry and exit) under administrative controls. ITS LCO 3.7.10 also requires the two CREVS trains to be OPERABLE, however Note 1 to the LCO is included that allows the control room envelope (CRE) boundary to be opened intermittently under administrative controls. ITS 3.7.10 ACTION B provides actions for when the CRE boundary is inoperable in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4. The action allows up to 90 days to restore the CRE boundary before requiring a unit shutdown. Also, ITS SR 3.7.10.4 is added to verify the OPERABILITY of the CRE boundary by testing for unfiltered air inleakage past the CRE boundary and into the CRE, in accordance with the Control Room Envelope Habitability Program. The program details are discussed in the Discussion of Changes for ITS 5.5. This changes the CTS by allowing the CRE boundary to be opened intermittently under administrative controls and not consider both CREVS trains to be inoperable and provides time to restore an inoperable CRE boundary prior to requiring a unit shutdown.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.6.1 is to ensure the CREVS remains OPERABLE to support the safety analyses. Davis-Besse proposes to establish new ACTION requirements in ITS 3.7.10 for an inoperable CRE boundary. Currently, if one CREVS train is determined to be inoperable due to an inoperable CRE boundary, CTS 3.7.6.1 Action a would apply and require restoring the train (and the CRE boundary) to OPERABLE status in 7 days. If two trains are determined to be inoperable due to an inoperable CRE boundary, no CTS 3.7.6.1 Actions are Davis-Besse Page 3 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 230 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 231 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.10, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (CREVS) provided, thus immediate entry into the shutdown actions of CTS 3.0.3 is required. These existing Actions are more restrictive than would be appropriate in situations for which implementation of compensatory measures or mitigating actions would temporarily afford adequate CRE occupant protection from postulated airborne hazards. To account for such situations, Davis-Besse proposes to revise the action requirements to add ITS 3.7.10 ACTION B, whose entry condition is "One or more CREVS trains inoperable due to inoperable CRE boundary in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4." ITS 3.7.10 Required Action B.3 would allow 90 days to restore the inoperable CRE boundary (and consequently, the affected CREVS trains) to OPERABLE status, provided that mitigating actions are immediately implemented (ITS 3.7.10 Required Action B.1) and within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> are verified to ensure, that in the event of a DBA, CRE occupant radiological exposures will not exceed the calculated dose of the licensing basis analyses of DBA consequences, and that CRE occupants are protected from hazardous chemicals and smoke (ITS 3.7.10 Required Action B.2). The 24-hour Completion Time of ITS 3.7.10 Required Action B.2 is reasonable based on the low probability of a DBA occurring during this time period, and the use of mitigating actions. The 90-day Completion Time of ITS 3.7.10 Required Action B.3 is reasonable based on the determination that the mitigating actions will ensure protection of CRE occupants within analyzed limits while limiting the probability that CRE occupants will have to implement protective measures that may adversely affect their ability to control the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition in the event of a DBA. The 90-day Completion Time of ITS 3.7.10 Required Action B.3 is also a reasonable time to diagnose, plan and possibly repair, and test most anticipated problems with the CRE boundary.
Therefore, the addition of ITS 3.7.10 ACTION B is acceptable.
To distinguish ITS 3.7.10 Condition B from the existing condition for one CREVS train inoperable, CTS 3.7.6.1 Action a is revised as shown in ITS 3.7.10 Condition A to state One CREVS train inoperable "for reasons other than Condition B." To distinguish ITS 3.7.10 Condition B from ITS 3.7.10 Condition E, which was added as described in DOC A02, ITS 3.7.10 Condition E states Two CREVS trains inoperable in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4 "for reasons other than Condition B." The changes to CTS 3.7.6.1 Action a and CTS 3.0.3 (which is the action to enter when both CREVS trains are inoperable) are less restrictive because these Actions will no longer apply in the event one or two CREVS trains are inoperable due to an inoperable CRE boundary. This is acceptable because ITS 3.7.10 ACTION B establishes adequate remedial measures in this condition.
Davis-Besse also proposes to modify CTS 3.7.6.1 by adding a Note (ITS LCO 3.7.10 Note 1) allowing the CRE boundary to be opened intermittently under administrative controls. As stated in the ITS 3.7.10 LCO Bases, this Note "only applies to openings in the CRE boundary that can be rapidly restored to the design condition, such as doors, hatches, floor plugs, and access panels. For entry and exit through doors, the administrative control of the opening is performed by the person(s) entering or exiting the area. For other openings, these controls should be proceduralized and consist of stationing a dedicated individual at the opening who is in continuous communication with operators in the CRE. This individual will have a method to rapidly close the opening and to restore the CRE boundary to a condition equivalent to the design condition when a need for CRE isolation is indicated." The allowance of this Note is acceptable Davis-Besse Page 4 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 231 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 232 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.10, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (CREVS) because the administrative controls will ensure that the opening will be quickly sealed to maintain the validity of the licensing basis analyses of DBA consequences.
Furthermore, to support the above changes, a new Surveillance Requirement has been added. ITS SR 3.7.10.4 requires performance of required CRE unfiltered air inleakage testing in accordance with the Control Room Envelope Habitability Program. ITS Section 5.5 includes the details for the program. This addition is acceptable because the proposed SR will ensure that the unfiltered air inleakage into the CRE is no greater than the flow rate assumed in the licensing basis analyses of DBA consequences.
These changes are consistent with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3, as modified by TSTF-448, Rev. 3, which has been approved by the NRC using the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process and documented in the Federal Register notice dated January 17, 2007 (pages 2022 through 2033). This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Required Actions are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L02 (Category 7- Relaxation Of Surveillance Frequency, Non-24 Month Type Change) CTS 4.7.6.1 .b states that each CREVS train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once every 31 days "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS" by initiating, from the control room, flow through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers and verifying that the train operates for a least 15 minutes.
ITS SR 3.7.10.1 requires a similar test every 31 days, but does not include the "STAGGERED TEST BASIS" requirement. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement to test on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.6.1 .b is to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the CREVS trains. This change is acceptable because the new Surveillance Frequency provides an acceptable level of equipment reliability. This change deletes the requirement to perform CTS 4.7.6.1 .b on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The intent of a requirement for staggered testing is to increase reliability of the component/system being tested. A number of studies have been performed that demonstrate that staggered testing has negligible impact on component reliability. These analytical and subjective analyses have determined that staggered testing 1) is operationally difficult, 2) has negligible impact on component reliability, 3) has no impact on failure frequency, 4) introduces additional stress on components potentially causing increased component failures rates and component wearout, 5) results in reduced redundancy during testing, and 6) increases likelihood of human error by increasing testing intervals.
Therefore, the CREVS staggered testing requirements have been deleted. This change is designated as less restrictive because the intervals between performances of the Surveillances for the two CREVS trains can be larger or smaller under the ITS than under the CTS.
L03 (Category 6 - Relaxation Of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.7.6.1.e.2 requires verification of the automatic isolation of the Control Room Normal Ventilation System on an "SFAS" test signal and a "Station Vent Normal Range Radiation monitoring" test signal. ITS SR 3.7.12.3 specifies that the signal may be from either an "actual" or simulated (i.e., test) signal. This Davis-Besse Page 5 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 232 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 233 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.10, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (CREVS) changes the CTS by explicitly allowing the use of either an actual or simulated signal for the test.
The purpose of CTS 4.7.6.1 .e.2 is to ensure the Control Room Normal Ventilation System isolates upon receipt of an actuation signal. This change is acceptable because it has been determined that the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Equipment cannot discriminate between an "actual," "simulated," or "test" signal and, therefore, the results of the testing are unaffected by the type of signal used to initiate the test. This change allows taking credit for unplanned actuation if sufficient information is collected to satisfy the Surveillance test requirements.
The change also allows a simulated signal to be used, if necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.

The CRE is the area within the confines of the CRE boundary that contains the spaces that control room occupants inhabit to control the unit during normal and es accident conditions. This area encompasses the control room, and* (T encompas other non-critical areas to which frequent personnel access or LaiY continuous occupancy is not necessary in the event of an accident. The CRE is protected during normal operation, natural events, and accident conditions. The CRE boundary is the combination of walls, floor, roof, ducting, doors, penetrations and equipment that physically form the CRE. The OPERABILITY of the CRE boundary must be maintained to ensure that the inleakage of unfiltered air into the CRE will not exceed the inleakage assumed in the licensing basis analysis of design basis accident (DBA) consequences to CRE occupants. The CRE and its boundary are defined in the Control Room Envelope Habitability Program.
INSERT 3 The CREVS provides protection from smoke and hazardous chemicals to the CRE occupants. The analysis of hazardous chemical releases demonstrates that the toxicity limits are not exceeded in the CRE following a hazardous TSTF-chemical release (Ref. 3).

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 258 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.11, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY AIR TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM (CREATCS)
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.7.6.1 states that two control room emergency ventilation systems shall be OPERABLE. CTS 4.7.6.1 .a requires verification that the control room air temperature is < 11 0°F every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> when the CREVS is operating. Thus, the CTS 3.7.6.1 statement that two CREVS shall be OPERABLE and the CTS 4.7.6.1 statement that each CREVS train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE includes the air temperature control portion of the CREVS. In the ITS, the requirements have been split into separate Technical Specifications; ITS 3.7.10, "Control Room Emergency Ventilation System (CREVS)," for the filtration and control room envelope boundary requirements and ITS 3.7.11, "Control Room Emergency Air Temperature Control System (CREATCS)," for the control room envelope air conditioning requirements. Therefore, the ITS 3.7.11 LCO, ACTIONS, and Surveillance Requirement refers to the CREATCS. This changes the CTS by providing a separate Technical Specification for the CREATCS.
This change is designated as administrative and is acceptable because it does not result in any technical changes, except as justified by another Discussion of Change.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES None RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 3.7.6.1 states that two "independent" control room emergency ventilation systems shall be OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.7.10 states that two Control Room Emergency Air Temperature Control System (CREATCS) trains shall be OPERABLE. This changes the CTS by moving the details that the CREATCS trains are "independent" from the CTS to the Bases. The change from CREVS to CREATCS is discussed in DOC A02.
Davis-Besse Page 1 of 3 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 258 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 259 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.11, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY AIR TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM (CREATCS)
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement that two CREATCS trains be OPERABLE. The details concerning the independence of the trains do not need to appear in the Specification in order for the requirement to apply. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 3- Relaxation of Completion Time) CTS 3.7.6.1 Action a allows 7 days to restore an inoperable CREVS train to OPERABLE status. ITS 3.7.11 ACTION A allows 30 days to restore an inoperable CREATCS train to OPERABLE status. This changes the CTS by increasing the time allowed to restore the inoperable components from 7 days to 30 days. The change from CREVS to CREATCS is discussed in DOC A02.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.6.1, in part, is to provide a degree of assurance that the CREATCS can provide cooling when required. This change is acceptable because the Completion Time is consistent with safe operation under the specified Condition, considering the OPERABLE status of the redundant systems or features. This includes the capacity and capability of remaining systems or features, a reasonable time for repairs or replacement, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during the allowed Completion Time. The CREATCS is still required to be restored to OPERABLE status, and can perform its function without one air conditioning train. Furthermore, alternate non-safety related cooling means are available. This change is designated as less restrictive because additional time is allowed in the ITS to restore parameters to within the LCO limits than was allowed in the CTS.
L02 (Category 5- Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.7.6.1 .a requires verification every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> that the control room air temperature is < 11 0°F when the CREVS is operating. ITS 3.7.11 does not include this requirement.
However, ITS SR 3.7.11.1 requires verification that each CREATCS train has the capability to remove the assumed heat load every 24 months. This changes the CTS by eliminating the Surveillance Requirement to verify control room air temperature every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and adding a Surveillance Requirement to verify each CREATCS train has the capability to remove the assumed heat load every 24 months.
The purpose of CTS 4.6.7.1 .a is to ensure the continuous duty rating for the instrumentation and equipment cooled by this system is not exceeded. This change is acceptable because the deleted Surveillance Requirement is not Davis-Besse Page 2 of 3 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 259 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 260 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.11, CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY AIR TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM (CREATCS) necessary to ensure the CREATCS can perform its safety function and ITS SR 3.7.11.1 has been added to verify each control room ventilation subsystem has the capability to remove the assumed heat load. This new SR will ensure the CREATCS can perform its safety function. Temperature is not always the appropriate method to verify the system capability to remove its design basis heat load because the conditions in the control room envelope boundary do not always reflect the assumptions of the accident (e.g., personnel assumed to be in the control room envelope boundary during an accident, the system does not normally operate in the pressurization mode of operation). ITS SR 3.7.11.1 will ensure each CREATCS train has sufficient cooling capability to meet the safety analyses assumptions. This change is designated as less restrictive because a Surveillance that is required in the CTS will not be required in the ITS.

BASES BACKGROUND The CREATCS provides temperature control for the control room following isolation of the control room.
The CREATCS consists of two independent and redundant trains that provide cooling of recirculated control room air. A cooling coil and a water cooled condensing unit are provided for each system to provide suitable temperature conditions in the control room for operating personnel and safety related control equipment. Ductwork, valves or dampers, and instrumentation also form part of the system. Two redundant air cooled condensing units are provided as a backup to the water cooled condensing unit. Both the water cooled and air cooled condensing units must be OPERABLE for the CREATCS to be OPERABLE. During emergency operation, the CREATCS maintains the
-110°F in the control rom } temDeratur~lbetweenL*f°F and 85 F1. The CREATCS is a subsystem providing air temperature control for the control room. Operation of the CREMVS is required for a Safety Features Actuation The CREATCS is an emergency system. On detection of high CREATCS to be System (SFAS) signal or a can essure or radiat low

A single train will provide the required temperature control. The CREATCS operation to maintain
[*Sectionffl(Ref. 1).* control room temperature is discussed in the 4FSAR, APPLICABLE The design basis of the CREATCS is to maintain control room SAFETY temperature for 30 days of continuous occupancy.
ANALYSES The CREATCS components are arranged in redundant, safety related trains. During emergency operation, the CREATCS maintains the 11F in the control roo rtemperaturbetween and .A single active failure of a CREATCS component does not impair the ability of the system to perform 0
as designed. The CREATCS is designed in accordance with Seismic Category I requirements. The CREATCS is capable of removing sensible and latent heat loads from the control room, including consideration of equipment heat loads and personnel occupancy requirements, to ensure equipment OPERABILITY.
The CREATCS satisfies Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).

ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES None RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type I - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 3.6.5.1 states that two "independent" emergency ventilation systems shall be OPERABLE. CTS 3.6.5.2 states that the shield building integrity shall be maintained. ITS LCO 3.7.12 states that two Station EVS trains shall be OPERABLE. This changes the CTS by moving the details that the Station EVS trains are "independent" and that the "shield building integrity" must be maintained from the CTS to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement that two Station EVS trains be OPERABLE. The details concerning the independence of the trains do not need to appear in the Specification in order for the requirement to apply. The details concerning the shield building integrity are considered part of the OPERABILITY requirements for the Station EVS trains.
ITS SR 3.7.12.4 ensures that each Station EVS train can drawdown the shield building area negative pressure boundary, and ITS 3.7.12 ACTION B provides actions for when both Station EVS trains are inoperable due to an inoperable shield building area negative pressure boundary. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases.
Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 279 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.12, STATION EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS)
LA02 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 4.6.5.1 .a states that each EVS train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by initiating, from the control room, flow through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers and verifying that the train operates for a least 15 minutes. CTS 4.6.5.2.2 requires the shield building area negative pressure boundary drawdown test to be "performed with the flow path established prior to starting the EVS fan, and the other dampers associated with the shield building area negative pressure boundary closed." ITS SR 3.7.12.1 states to operate the each Station EVS train for > 15 minutes. ITS SR 3.7.12.4 performs the shield building area negative pressure boundary drawdown test, but does not include the prerequisites (described above) of CTS 4.6.5.2.2. This changes the CTS by moving the details of how the Surveillances are conducted to the Bases.
The removal of these details for performing Surveillance Requirements from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to periodically operate the Station EVS trains and perform a drawdown test of the shield building area negative pressure boundary. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA03 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 4.6.5.1 .d.2 requires verification of the automatic actuation of the Station EVS trains on a "containment isolation" test signal. ITS SR 3.7.12.3 does not state the specific type of signal, but only specifies an actual or simulated "actuation" signal. This changes CTS by moving the type of actuation signal (i.e., containment isolation) to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to verify that appropriate equipment actuates upon receipt of an actuation signal.
Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5 of the ITS. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Specification.
LA04 (Type I - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS Table 4.6-1 contains a list of the shield building area negative pressure boundary airtight doors and blowout panels. ITS 3.7.12 does Davis-Besse Page 2 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 279 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 280 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.12, STATION EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS) not contain this list. This changes the CTS by relocating the list of the shield building area negative pressure boundary airtight doors and blowout panels to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. ITS 3.7.12 still requires the shield building area negative pressure boundary to be intact, and ITS SR 3.7.12.4 requires periodic Surveillances to verify the integrity of the boundary. It is not necessary for the list of the shield building area negative pressure boundary airtight doors and blowout panels to be in the Technical Specifications in order to ensure that the shield building area negative pressure boundary is intact. Other lists of components, such as containment isolation valves and equipment response times, have been relocated from the Technical Specification to licensee-controlled documents while retaining the requirements on these components in Technical Specifications. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is currently incorporated by reference into the UFSAR, thus any changes to the TRM are made under 10 CFR 50.59, which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 7- Relaxation Of Surveillance Frequency, Non-24 Month Type Change) CTS 4.6.5.1.a states that each Station EVS train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once every 31 days "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS" by initiating, from the control room, flow through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers and verifying that the train operates for a least 15 minutes. ITS SR 3.7.12.1 requires a similar test every 31 days, but does not include the "STAGGERED TEST BASIS" requirement. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement to test on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS.
The purpose of CTS 4.6.5.1 .a is to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the EVS trains. This change is acceptable because the new Surveillance Frequency provides an acceptable level of equipment reliability. This change deletes the requirement to perform CTS 4.6.5.1 .a on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The intent of a requirement for staggered testing is to increase reliability of the component/system being tested. A number of studies have been performed that demonstrate that staggered testing has negligible impact on component reliability. These analytical and subjective analyses have determined that staggered testing 1) is operationally difficult, 2) has negligible impact on component reliability, 3) has no impact on failure frequency, 4) introduces additional stress on components potentially causing increased component failures rates and component wearout, 5) results in reduced redundancy testing, and 6) increases likelihood of human error by increasing testing intervals.
Therefore, the EVS staggered testing requirements have been deleted. This change is designated as less restrictive because the intervals between Davis-Besse Page 3 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 280 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 281 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.12, STATION EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS) performances of the Surveillances for the two EVS trains can be larger or smaller under the ITS than under the CTS.
L02 (Category 6 - Relaxation Of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.6.5.1 .d.2 requires verification of the automatic actuation of the Station EVS trains on a containment isolation "test" signal. ITS SR 3.7.12.3 specifies that the signal may be from either an "actual" or simulated (i.e., test) signal. This changes the CTS by explicitly allowing the use of either an actual or simulated signal for the test.
The purpose of CTS 4.6.5.1 .d.2 is to ensure the Station EVS trains operate correctly upon receipt of an actuation signal. This change is acceptable because it has been determined that the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Equipment cannot discriminate between an "actual," "simulated," or "test"signal and, therefore, the results of the testing are unaffected by the type of signal used to initiate the test. This change allows taking credit for unplanned actuation if sufficient information is collected to satisfy the Surveillance test requirements. The change also allows a simulated signal to be used, if necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L03 (Category5 - Deletion Of Surveillance Requirement) CTS 4.6.5.2.1 requires the shield building area negative pressure boundary airtight doors and blowout panel to be verified closed once per 31 days. ITS 3.7.12 does not include this Surveillance. This changes the CTS by deleting this specific Surveillance.
The purpose of CTS 4.6.5.2.1 is to help ensure the shield building area negative pressure boundary is intact. This change is acceptable since this specific Surveillance is not required to ensure the shield building area negative pressure boundary is intact. The airtight doors are routinely accessed by station personnel for entry and exit into the shield building area negative pressure boundary.
Station practices and procedures require these doors to be closed immediately after use. Therefore, a specific Surveillance verifying the doors are closed is not needed: they are checked closed after use by the individuals using the doors.
Furthermore, if a door was left open by an individual, it would be found by the next individual who used the door and properly closed. Also, some of the doors will provide a security alarm if the door is left open for an extended time. The blowout panels are part of the building walls. They are not access points for entry or exit into the shield building area negative pressure boundary. Any problem with the blowout panels that affects the shield building area negative pressure boundary integrity would be identified during the drawdown test (ITS SR 3.7.12.4), similar to other problems with the boundary (e.g., a penetration leaking excessively such that it impacted the drawdown test). Furthermore, any positive pressure event that could negatively impact the blowout panels would be readily obvious to plant personnel. Thus, if the overpressure event negatively affected the blowout panels, it would not go undetected. This change is designated as less restrictive because a Surveillance Requirement required by the CTS is not required in the ITS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 282 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.12, STATION EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS)
L04 (Category I - Relaxation of LCO Requirements) CTS 4.6.5.2.1, in part, specifies that doors in the shield building area negative pressure boundary may be opened during normal transit entry and exit. ITS 3.7.12 includes this allowance in an LCO Note, which states that the shield building area negative pressure boundary may be opened intermittently under administrative control. This changes the CTS by allowing the shield building area negative pressure boundary to be opened for more reasons than is specified in the CTS.
The purpose of the CTS 4.6.5.2.1 allowance is to allow the shield building area negative pressure boundary to be opened under administrative control. This change is acceptable because the LCO requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, and components are maintained consistent with the safety analyses and licensing basis. The CTS allows doors in the shield building area negative pressure boundary to be opened during normal transit entry and exit.
The ITS allows these doors to be opened, but in addition will allow other portions of the boundary to be opened. This change is acceptable since administrative controls must be in place in order to open the boundary. The administrative controls required are described in the Bases. For entry and exit through doors the administrative control of the opening is performed by the person(s) entering or exiting the area. For other openings, these controls consist of stationing a dedicated individual at the opening who is in continuous communication with the control room. This individual will have a method to rapidly close the opening when a need for shield building area negative pressure boundary isolation is indicated. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent LCO requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L05 (Category 7- Relaxation Of Surveillance Frequency, Non-24 Month Type Change) CTS 4.6.5.2.2 requires verification that each EVS train can drawdown the shield building area to a negative pressure of_> 0.25 inches water gauge in the annulus within 4 seconds after the fan attains a flow rate > 7200 cfm and
< 8800 cfm at least once per Refueling Interval (i.e., 24 months). ITS SR 3.7.12.4 requires this same test, however it is required to be performed using one Station EVS train every 24 months "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS." This changes the CTS by requiring the test to be performed using each Station EVS train at least once per 48 months.
The purpose of the CTS 4.6.5.2.2 is to ensure the integrity of the shield building area negative pressure boundary. This change is acceptable because the new Surveillance Frequency provides an acceptable level of equipment reliability. The change is acceptable since the proposed Surveillance Frequency will continue to require performance of the test every 24 months. This will ensure the shield building area negative pressure boundary integrity is maintained. The status of the integrity of the shield building area negative pressure boundary can be determined with either Station EVS train. ITS SR 3.7.12.3 requires the performance of a test to ensure each Station EVS train actuates on an actual or simulated initiation signal. Therefore, each subsystem will continue to be tested to ensure it can be automatically aligned to the correct mode of operation, however the verification that the shield building area negative pressure boundary can be maintained at the proper negative pressure will only be required with one train in operation. This change is designated as less restrictive because the Davis-Besse Page 5 of 6 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 282 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 283 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.12, STATION EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS)
Surveillance will only be required to be performed on one Station EVS train each Surveillance interval instead of on both Station EVS trains.

BASES BACKGROUND The EVS fi s air from the a of the active emer ncy Core Cooling System (ECCScornponents dug the recirculatio phý eofalss of coolant acc~ident. CA). I TeEVS consists of two independent, redundant trains. Each train consists of a prefilter, a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter, an activated charcoal.adsorber section for removal of gaseous activity (principally iodines), and a fan. Ductwork, valves or dampers, and instrumentation also form part of the system. The syste initiates filtered ventilat n of the Auxiliary B3bling negative essure area lowing receipt ofasafety features act tion signal (S S).
The E is a stand system. Duri emergency operat ns, the EVS IN 2 damperslre realigne , and fans are s rted to begin filtrati . Upon receipt of e SFAS si al(s), normal ai discharges from the egative pressure aria are isolat and the strea of ventilation air dis arqes through the system filter tins.1 The prefters remove aný\arge particles o an te air, lodn any entraineq h "1P d'rbr.in water droplets',poresent, fles 'dchrol to prevent excessive e EVS is discussed in the FSAR, Sectionsg6.2.3k9.4.f, and 15.4.6]
(Refs. 1,2, and 3, respectively).
APPLICABLE The design basis of the*EVS is established by the large break LOCA.
SAFETY The system evaluation assumes a passive failure of the ECCS outside ANALYSES containment, such as an ECCS pump seal failure during the recirculation mode. In such a case, the system limits radioactive release to within 10 CFR 100 (Ref. 4) requirements. The analysis of the effects and consequences of a large break LOCA is presented in Reference 3. he EVSso actuates following a mall break LOCA, in tho cases where the unit es into the recirculatio mode of long term cooli and to cleanup re ses of smaller leaks, uch as from valve stem p cking.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 290 of 461 B 3.7.12 O INSERT I The function of the Station Emergency Ventilation System (EVS) is to collect and process potential leakage from the containment vessel to minimize environmental activity levels resulting from all sources of containment leakage following a loss of coolant accident (LOCA).
The Station EVS is required to:
- a. Maintain a negative pressure (minimum of 1/4 inch water gauge), with respect to outside atmosphere, within the annular space between the shield building and the containment vessel and in the penetration rooms following a LOCA; and
- b. Provide a filtered exhaust path from the shield building annulus and the penetration and pump rooms following a LOCA.
O INSERT 2 Normally, the Station EVS is idle during normal plant operations. Following a LOCA, an Incident Level 1 Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) signal (Containment Pressure - High or Reactor Coolant System Pressure - Low) will start both fans and then the Station EVS suction dampers and the discharge dampers to the station vent stack will open. The recirculating dampers remain closed until the annulus differential pressure reaches the setpoint.
Interconnecting dampers CV5024 and CV5025 will be automatically closed (if they are open) by the SFAS signal in the event of a LOCA. The Level 1 SFAS signal will also isolate the area being serviced by the Station EVS by closing the Containment Purge and Exhaust System valves and the ECCS pump room isolation valves to ensure that the Station EVS can draw down the shield building area to the required negative pressure.
O INSERT 3 Prefilters are provided to remove coarse airborne particles to prolong HEPA filter life. HEPA filters are provided to remove fine airborne particulates that penetrate the prefilter. The activated charcoal adsorbers are impregnated to remove methyl iodide as well as elemental iodine contaminants resulting from a LOCA.

activity released to the ECCS pump rooms following a LOCA.
Jon Following a LOCA, an EJSFAS signal starts theEVS fans and opens the NSERT4 dampe ted in the tration room t4 ductwork. The gSFAS signal closes all containment isolation valves [an turge s'ystem'ylves].
The purge system fans, if running, are shut down automatically.
The EVS satisfies Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).
LCO S Two independent and redundant trains of the*EVS are required to be OPERABLE to ensure that at least one is available, assuming that a single failure disables the other train coincident with loss of offsite power.
Total system failure could result in atmospheric release from the negative pressure area boundary exceeding Reference 4 limits in the event of a Design Basis Accident (DBA).

controls. For entry and exit through doors, the administrative control of the opening is performed by the person(s) entering or exiting the area.
For other openings, these controls consist of stationing a dedicated 0

ACTIONS A.1 the inoperable Station Staion EVS train to )
With one-EVS train inoperable, action must be taken to restoreý OPERABLE status within 7 days. During this time, the remaining Station OPERABLE train is adequate to perform the EVS safety function.
However, the overall reliability is reduced because a Single failure in the OPERABLE EVS train could result in loss of EVS function.
The 7 day Completion Time is appropriate because the risk contribution is less than that of the ECCS (72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time), and this system is not a direct support system for the ECCS. The 7 day Completion Time is based on the low probability of a DBA occurring during this time period, and ability of the remaining train to provide the required capability.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.9.12 Action d states, in part, that the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable. ITS 3.7.13 does not include this exception. This changes the CTS by deleting the specific exception to Specification 3.0.4.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. CTS 3.0.4 provides requirements to preclude changing MODES with inoperable equipment. However, ITS LCO 3.0.4 has been modified to allow MODE changes under certain circumstances. This is justified in the Discussion of Changes for ITS Section 3.0. Therefore, this specific exception to CTS 3.0.4 is not needed in the ITS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES None RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 3.9.12 states that two "independent" emergency ventilation systems servicing the storage pool area shall be OPERABLE. ITS LCO 3.7.13 states that two Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains shall be OPERABLE. This changes the CTS by moving the details that the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains are "independent" from the CTS to the Bases.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement that two Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains be OPERABLE. The details concerning the independence of the trains do not need to appear in the Specification in order for the requirement to apply. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Davis-Besse Page 1 of 8 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 304 of 461

Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA02 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 3.9.12 Actions a and b, under certain conditions, requires the OPERABLE Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train to be in operation and "discharging through at least one train of HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers."
Under similar conditions, ITS 3.7.13 Required Action B.1 requires the OPERABLE Spent Fuel Pool EVS train to be placed in operation. This changes the CTS by moving the details of what placing the train in operation entails to the Bases.
The removal of these details for meeting a Technical Specification requirement is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirements to place the OPERABLE Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train in operation. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases.
Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA03 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 3.9.12, in part, allows CTS 4.9.12.1 not to be met due to both doors of the personnel air lock being open, provided at least one personnel air lock door is capable of being closed and a designated individual is available immediately outside the personnel air lock to close the door. The Note to ITS LCO 3.7.13 also allows the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains to be inoperable due to opening of the boundary under administrative control, but does not include these specific provisions of the allowance. This changes the CTS by moving the details of controlling the open air lock doors (i.e., one is capable of being closed and a designated individual is available immediately outside the personnel air lock to close the door) to the Bases.
The removal of these details for meeting a Technical Specification requirement is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the LCO Note allowance to open the boundary under administrative control. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5.
This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.

LA04 (Type 1 - Removing Details of System Design and System Description, Including Design Limits) CTS 4.9.12.2 requires verification that the system "fans stop automatically" and "that dampers automatically divert flow into the emergency ventilation system" on a "fuel storage area high radiation" test signal. ITS SR 3.7.13.3 does not state the specific automatic actions or the specific type of signal, but only specifies the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS "actuates" on an actual or simulated "actuation" signal. This changes CTS by moving the actions when the system actuates and the type of actuation signal to the Bases. The change to replace "test" with "simulated" and allow both "actual or simulated" actuation signals to be used for these SRs is discussed in DOC L07.
The removal of these details, which are related to system design, from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to verify that appropriate equipment actuates upon receipt of an actuation signal.
Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5 of the ITS. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because information relating to system design is being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LA05 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS 4.6.5.1 .a states that each EVS train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by initiating, from the control room, flow through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers and verifying that the train operates for a least 15 minutes. ITS SR 3.7.13.1 states to operate each Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train for_> 15 minutes. This changes the CTS by moving the details of how the Surveillance is conducted to the Bases.
The removal of these details for performing a Surveillance Requirement from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The ITS still retains the requirement to periodically operate the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category I - Relaxation of LCO Requirements) CTS 3.9.12, in part, specifies that both doors of the containment personnel air lock may be opened under administrative control (a designated individual who can close the door when Davis-Besse Page 3 of 8 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 306 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 307 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.13, SPENT FUEL POOL AREA EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS) needed). ITS 3.7.13 includes this allowance in an LCO Note, which states that the spent fuel pool area negative pressure boundary may be opened under administrative control. This changes the CTS by allowing the spent fuel pool area negative pressure boundary to be opened for more reasons than is specified in the CTS.
The purpose of the CTS 3.9.12 allowance is to allow the boundary to be opened under administrative control. This change is acceptable because the LCO requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, and components are maintained consistent with the safety analyses and licensing basis. The CTS allows both doors of the personnel air lock to be opened under administrative control. The ITS allows these doors to be opened, but in addition will allow other portions of the boundary to be opened. This change is acceptable since administrative controls must be in place in order to open the boundary. The administrative controls required are described in the Bases. For entry and exit through doors the administrative control of the opening is performed by the person(s) entering or exiting the area. For other openings, these controls consist of stationing a dedicated individual at the opening who is in continuous communication with the control room. This individual will have a method to rapidly close the opening when a need for spent fuel pool area negative pressure boundary isolation is indicated. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent LCO requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L02 (Category 2 - Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.9.12 states, in part, that the requirements for the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains are applicable "Whenever irradiated fuel assemblies is in the spent fuel pool." ITS 3.7.13 is applicable "During movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool." This changes the CTS by restricting the Applicability to only when there is a potential for a fuel handling accident in the spent fuel pool, i.e., during the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool.
The purpose of CTS 3.9.12 is to ensure that any releases of radioactivity from a fuel handling accident are within the limits of the fuel handling accident analysis.
This change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, and components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. The fuel handling accident analysis (outside containment) assumes that a single fuel assembly is damaged. A fuel handling accident is only assumed to occur when an irradiated fuel assembly is being moved. Therefore, the ITS imposes the controls on the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS during the movement of irradiated fuel in the spent fuel pool. This change is designated as less restrictive because the LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.
L03 (Category2 - Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.9.12, in part, allows the acceptance criteria of CTS 4.9.12.1 to not be met solely due to the containment equipment hatch being open in combination with both doors of the personnel airlock being open. The Applicability of CTS 3.9.12 includes CORE ALTERATIONS or movement of irradiated fuel within the containment with the containment equipment hatch open. CTS 3.9.12 Action b provides the actions when one Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train is inoperable during CORE Davis-Besse Page 4 of 8 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 307 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 308 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7,13, SPENT FUEL POOL AREA EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS)
ALTERATIONS or movement of irradiated fuel within the containment with the containment equipment hatch open. CTS 3.9.12 Action c, in part, provides the actions when both Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains are inoperable during CORE ALTERATIONS or movement of irradiated fuel within the containment with the containment equipment hatch open. ITS 3.7.13 does not include Spent Fuel Pool EVS requirements during CORE ALTERATIONS or movement of irradiated fuel within the containment with the containment equipment hatch open. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirements for the Spent Fuel Pool EVS to be OPERABLE during CORE ALTERATIONS or movement of irradiated fuel within the containment with the containment equipment hatch open.
The purpose of the allowance in CTS 3.9.12 is to allow both doors of the personnel air lock to be open, as allowed in CTS 3.9.4 (ITS 3.9.3), and not require declaring both Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains inoperable due to the inability to meet CTS 4.9.12.1, the Surveillance that ensures the boundary is capable of maintaining a negative pressure. This allowance was added to the CTS by License Amendment 251, approved by the NRC on February 14, 2002.
All of the above described CTS requirements were added as part of this amendment. However, the allowance can only be used after the reactor has been shutdown for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, since CTS 3.9.3 does not allow any irradiated fuel movement until the reactor has been shutdown for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. CTS 3.9.4 provides the requirements for containment penetrations during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the containment, and the equipment hatch and air lock doors are covered by CTS 3.9.4. However, as part of this ITS conversion, the Applicability of CTS 3.9.4 has been changed (as shown in ITS 3.9.3) to only include "recently" irradiated fuel assembly movement in thecontainment. As described in the ITS 3.9.3 Bases, the term "recently" means fuel that has occupied part of a critical reactor core within the previous 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. Thus, after the reactor has been shutdown for > 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, ITS 3.9.3 is no longer applicable and the containment equipment hatch and air lock doors can be opened. The justification for the CTS 3.9.4 (ITS 3.9.3) Applicability change is described in ITS 3.9.3 DOC L01. If the containment equipment hatch or air lock doors are opened anytime after the reactor has been shutdown for > 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, the spent fuel pool area negative pressure boundary extends to include the inside of the containment pressure vessel. The Note to ITS LCO 3.7.13 provides adequate administrative controls to ensure that in this case (i.e., the containment equipment hatch and air lock doors opened), the negative pressure boundary can be properly restored. Therefore, this change is considered acceptable. This change is designated as less restrictive because the ITS LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.
L04 (Category 4 - Relaxation of Required Action) When a Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train is inoperable, CTS 3.9.12 Action a allows fuel movement in the spent fuel pool to continue, provided the OPERABLE Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train is in operation. No time is provided to restore the inoperable train prior to requiring the OPERABLE train to be in operation. ITS 3.7.13 ACTION A allows 7 days to restore an inoperable Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train prior to requiring the OPERABLE train to be placed in operation. This changes the CTS by allowing 7 days to restore an inoperable Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train prior to placing the OPERABLE train in operation.
Davis-Besse Page 5 of 8 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 308 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 309 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.13, SPENT FUEL POOL AREA EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS)
The purpose of CTS 3.9.12 Action a is to place the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS in the condition assumed in the accident analysis. This change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, and components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. During this additional 7 day period, one train of the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS remains OPERABLE and capable of performing its assumed safety function. Furthermore, this 7 day time is consistent with the time allowed for other ventilation system Technical Specifications when one ventilation train is inoperable (e.g., CTS 3.6.5.1 and ITS 3.7.12). This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Required Actions are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L05 (Category 4 - Relaxation of RequiredAction) CTS 3.9.12 Actions a and c provide an option that when one or both Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains are inoperable, to immediately suspend fuel movement and crane operations with loads over the spent fuel pool. Under similar conditions, ITS 3.7.13 Required Actions B.2 and C.1 require immediate suspension of movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement to suspend non-irradiated fuel assembly movement and to suspend crane operations over the spent fuel pool.
The purpose of CTS 3.9.12 Actions a and c is to preclude a fuel handling accident from occurring when the initial conditions for that accident are not met.
This change is acceptable because the Required Actions are used to establish remedial measures that must be taken in response to the degraded conditions in order to minimize risk associated with continued operation while providing time to repair inoperable features. The only initiator to a fuel handling accident assumed in the accident analysis is the damaging of a single irradiated fuel assembly.
Damaging a fuel assembly which has not been irradiated has no significant radiological effects and is not assumed in the fuel handling accident analysis.
Therefore, stopping the handling of fuel assemblies which have not been irradiated is not required. The dropping of loads onto fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool is not an initiator that is assumed in the fuel handling accident analysis. The movement of heavy loads is addressed by the Davis-Besse response to NUREG 0612, "Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants,"
and Generic Letter 81-07. Therefore, these activities are not restricted in the Technical Specifications. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Required Actions are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L06 (Category 7- Relaxation Of Surveillance Frequency, Non-24 Month Type Change) CTS 4.9.12.1 requires verification that each Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train can maintain > 0.125 inches vacuum water gauge relative to the outside atmosphere at least once per Refueling Interval (i.e., 24 months). ITS SR 3.7.13.4 requires this same test, however it is required to be performed every 24 months "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS." This changes the CTS by requiring the test to be performed using each Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train at least once per 48 months.
The purpose of the CTS 4.9.12.1 is to ensure the integrity of the spent fuel pool area boundary. This change is acceptable because the new Surveillance Davis-Besse Page 6 of 8 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 309 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 310 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.13, SPENT FUEL POOL AREA EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS)
Frequency provides an acceptable level of equipment reliability. The change is acceptable since the proposed Surveillance Frequency will continue to require performance of the test every 24 months. This will ensure the spent fuel pool area boundary integrity is maintained. The status of the integrity of the spent fuel pool area boundary can be determined with either Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train. ITS SR 3.7.13.3 requires the performance of a test to ensure each Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train actuates on an actual or simulated initiation signal.
Therefore, each subsystem will continue to be tested to ensure it can be automatically aligned to the correct mode of operation, however the verification that the Spent Fuel Pool Area can be maintained at the proper negative pressure will only be required with one train in operation. This change is designated as less restrictive because the Surveillance will only be required to be performed on one Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS train each Surveillance interval instead of on both Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains.
L07 (Category 6 - Relaxation Of Surveillance Requirement Acceptance Criteria)
CTS 4.9.12.2 requires verification of the automatic actuation of the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains on a fuel storage area high radiation "test" signal. ITS SR 3.7.13.3 specify that the signal may be from either an actual or simulated (i.e., test) signal. This changes the CTS by explicitly allowing the use of either an actual or simulated signal for the test. The change to remove the specific type of actuation signal (i.e., fuel storage area high radiation) to be used for this SR is discussed in DOC LA04.
The purpose of CTS 4.9.12.2 is to ensure that the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS trains operate correctly upon receipt of an actuation signal. This change is acceptable because it has been determined that the relaxed Surveillance Requirement acceptance criteria are not necessary for verification that the equipment used to meet the LCO can perform its required functions. Equipment cannot discriminate between an "actual," "simulated," or "test" signal and, therefore, the results of the testing are unaffected by the type of signal used to initiate the test. This change allows taking credit for unplanned actuation if sufficient information is collected to satisfy the Surveillance test requirements.
The change also allows a simulated signal to be used, if necessary. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent Surveillance Requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L08 (Category 7- Relaxation Of Surveillance Frequency, Non-24 Month Type Change) CTS 4.6.5.1 .a states that each EVS train shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once every 31 days "on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS" by initiating, from the control room, flow through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers and verifying that the train operates for a least 15 minutes. ITS SR 3.7.13.1 requires a similar test every 31 days, but does not include the "STAGGERED TEST BASIS" requirement. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement to test on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS.
The purpose of CTS 4.6.5.1 .a is to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the EVS trains. This change is acceptable because the new Surveillance Frequency provides an acceptable level of equipment reliability. This change deletes the requirement to perform CTS 4.6.5.1 .a on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The intent of a requirement for staggered testing is to increase reliability of the Davis-Besse Page 7 of 8 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 310 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 311 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.13, SPENT FUEL POOL AREA EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM (EVS) component/system being tested. A number of studies have been performed that demonstrate that staggered testing has negligible impact on component reliability. These analytical and subjective analyses have determined that staggered testing 1) is operationally difficult, 2) has negligible impact on component reliability, 3) has no impact on failure frequency, 4) introduces additional stress on components potentially causing increased component failures rates and component wearout, 5) results in reduced redundancy testing, and 6) increases likelihood of human error by increasing testing intervals.
Therefore, the EVS staggered testing requirements have been deleted. This change is designated as less restrictive because the intervals between performances of the Surveillances for the two EVS trains can be larger or smaller under the ITS than under the CTS.

- 1. Changes are made to the ISTS Specification which reflect plant specific nomenclature.
- 2. The brackets are removed and the proper plant specific information/value is provided.
- 3. The Spent Fuel Pool Area Emergency Ventilation System (EVS) is not used to provide fission product removal associated with ECCS leaks due to a loss of coolant accident. The Station EVS is used for this function, as described in ITS 3.7.12.
Therefore, the bracketed MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 requirements have been deleted and subsequent ACTIONS renumbered. Furthermore, due to this deletion, the words in the Conditions concerning movement of fuel is not necessary and has been deleted.
- 4. ISTS LCO 3.7.13 Note allows the fuel building boundary to be opened "intermittently" under administrative control. This Note is described in the LCO Bases, and includes actions to be taken if the boundary is opened for reasons other than entry and exit through doors. When the boundary is opened for these reasons (i.e., for reasons other than entry and exit through doors), it is not necessarily being opened "intermittently." The reasons could include opening a penetration or creating a new penetration through a wall, and this might not be considered "intermittent."
Furthermore, Davis-Besse current licensing basis allows the air lock doors to both be opened and maintained open, provided one of the doors is capable of being closed and a designated individual is assigned to close the door if necessary. When using this allowance, Davis-Besse might not meet the "intermittent" requirement since the doors could be opened for an extended time period. The ITS Bases clearly describes the conditions that must be met to use the Note allowance. Therefore, the term "intermittently" is unnecessary and has been deleted.

During normal operation, the exhaust from the fuel handling area is passed through the FHAVS exhaust filter and is discharged through the station vent stack. In the event of a fuel handling accident, the radiation detectors (one per Jtrain), located at the suction of the FHAVS exhaust fan ducting, send signals to isolate the FHAVS supply and exhaust fans and ductwork, open the redundant dampers in the bypass Statin ductwork, and start the EVS fans. The EVS fans pull the air from the fuel handling area, creating a negative pressure, and discharge the filtered air T_71, to the station vent.

The FHAVS supply and exhaust fans will trip and their respective inlet and outlet dampers will isolate. The Fuel Handling Area to Emergency Ventilation dampers open and the Station EVS fans start.
This will maintain a negative pressure in the Spent Fuel Pool Area and filter the exhaust through charcoal filters and HEPA filters. Filtration of the exhaust ensures the accident dose at the site boundary will be well below the 10 CFR 100 limits and the control room dose will be within the 10 CFR 50, GDC 19 limits.

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 CTS 3.9.11 Action states that with the requirement of the Specification not satisfied, suspend all movement of fuel. ITS 3.7.14 Required Action A.1 requires the immediate suspension of movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the fuel storage pool. This changes the CTS by explicitly specifying that the compensatory action to suspend all movement of fuel assemblies requires an immediate response. Other changes to this CTS Action are discussed in DOCs L01 and L02.
The purpose of the CTS 3.9.11 Action to suspend all movement of fuel assemblies is to help ensure the assumptions of a fuel handling accident are met. The current action does not specify a time; however it implies that the action is immediate. This change is acceptable because it only provides clarification that the compensatory action requires an immediate response. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES None RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES None LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 2 - Relaxation of Applicability) CTS 3.9.11 states that the requirements on storage pool water level are applicable "Whenever irradiated fuel assemblies are in the spent fuel pool." CTS 4.9.11 requires the water level in the spent fuel pool to be verified every 7 days "when irradiated fuel assemblies are in the spent fuel pool." ITS 3.7.14 is applicable "During movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool." ITS SR 3.7.14.1 requires Davis-Besse Page 1 of 3 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 334 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 335 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.14, SPENT FUEL POOL WATER LEVEL verification of the spent fuel pool water level every 7 days. This changes the CTS by restricting the Applicability of the spent fuel pool water level Specification and performance of the Surveillance to only when there is a potential for a fuel handling accident, i.e., during the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the fuel storage pool. In addition, since the Applicability is now limited to when irradiated fuel is being moved, the CTS Action to restore water level to within its limit within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> after movement of fuel has been suspended has also been deleted.
The purpose of CTS 3.9.11 is to ensure that the minimum fuel storage pool water level assumption in the fuel handling accident analysis is met. This change is acceptable because the requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, and components are maintained in the MODES and other specified conditions assumed in the safety analyses and licensing basis. The fuel handling accident analysis (outside containment) assumes that a single fuel assembly is damaged. A key assumption in the analysis is that there is ->23 feet of water over the damaged assembly, as this depth is directly related to the clean up of the fission products before release to the spent fuel pool area atmosphere. A fuel handling accident is only assumed to occur when an irradiated fuel assembly is being moved. Therefore, the ITS imposes the controls on minimum spent fuel pool water level during the movement of irradiated fuel in the spent fuel pool.
This change is designated as less restrictive because the LCO requirements are applicable in fewer operating conditions than in the CTS.
L02 (Category 4 - Relaxation of Required Action) CTS 3.9.11 Action states that when the spent fuel pool water level is not met, suspend all movement of fuel and crane operations with loads in the spent fuel pool area. ITS 3.7.14 Required Action A.1 states that when spent fuel pool water level is not within limit, immediately suspend movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement to suspend non-irradiated fuel assembly movement and to suspend crane operations over the spent fuel pool.
The purpose of the CTS 3.9.11 Action is to preclude a fuel handling accident from occurring when the initial conditions for that accident are not met. This change is acceptable because the Required Actions are used to establish remedial measures that must be taken in response to the degraded conditions in order to minimize risk associated with continued operation while providing time to repair inoperable features. The only initiator to a fuel handling accident assumed in the accident analysis is the damaging of a single irradiated fuel assembly.
Damaging a fuel assembly which has not been irradiated has no significant radiological effects and is not assumed in the fuel handling accident analysis.
Therefore, stopping the handling of fuel assemblies which have not been irradiated when the spent fuel pool water level is less than the limit is not required. The dropping of loads onto fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool is not an initiator that is assumed in the fuel handling accident analysis. The movement of heavy loads is addressed by the Davis-Besse response to NUREG 0612, "Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants," and Generic Letter 81-07.
Therefore, these activities are not restricted in the Technical Specifications when the spent fuel pool water level is not within limit. This change is designated as Davis-Besse Page 2 of 3 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 335 of 461

B 3.7 PLANT SYSTEMS B 3 714 Fuel t Pool Water Level 0 BASES BACKGROUND The minimum water level in th~efuel pool meets the assumption of iodine decontamination factors following a fuel handling accident. The specified water level shields and minimizes the general area dose when the storage racks are filled to their maximum capacity. The water also provides shielding during the movement of spent fuel.
A general descriptioln ofthe uel s pool design is given in the SAR, Sectionp.12LReference 1 1. The Spent Fuel Pool Cooling and Cleanup Sys em is given in th FSAR, Section 9..311 (Ref. 2). The assumptions of the fuel handling accident are given in thelFSAR, Section15.4.7 (Ref. 3). L. 0 APPLICABLE The minimum water level in thelfuelt pool meets the assumptions SAFETY of the fuel handling accident described in Regulatory Guide 1.25 (Ref. 4).

According to Reference 4, there is 23 ft of water between the top of the damaged fuel bundle and the fuel pool surface for a fuel handling accident. With 23 ft, the assumptions of Reference 4 can be used directly. In practice, the LCO preserves this assumption for the bulk of the fuel in the storage racks. In the case of a single bundle dropped and lying horizontally on top of the spent fuel rack, however, there may be
< 23 ft above the top of the fuel bundle and the surface, by the width of the bundle./To offset this smal no/conservatism, the */alysis assumes/

BASES ACTIONS A.1 SRequired Action A.1 is modified by a Note indicating that LCO 3.0.3 does 0
Inot apply.
When the initial conditions for an accident cannot be met, immediate action must be taken to preclude the occurrence of an accident. Vith the E fuel* pool at less than the required level, the movement ofýuel~iradiated EEýý ýassemblies in thZfuel s pool is immediately suspended. This &D effectively precludes the occurrence of a fuel handling accident. In such 0
a case, unit procedures control the movement of loads over the spent fuel. This does not preclude movement of a fuel assembly to a safe position.
If moving irradiated fuel assemblies while in MODE 5 or 6, LCO 3.0.3 would not specify any action. If moving irradiated fuel assemblies while in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the fuel movement is independent of reactor operations. Therefore, in either case, inability to suspend movement of irradiated fuel assemblies is not sufficient reason to require a reactor shutdown.
SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.14.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR verifies that sufficien pool water is available in the event of a fuel handling accident. The water level in the e pool guel spent 0501 must be checked periodically. The 7 day Frequency is appropriate because the volume in the pool is normally stable. Water level changes are controlled by unit procedures and are acceptable, based on operating experience.
During refueling operations, the level in thuel pool is at equilibrium with that in the refueling canal, and the level in the refueling 0D canal is checked daily in accordance with SR 3.9.6.1.

ITS 3.7.15 requires the spent fuel pool boron concentration to be > 630 ppm when fuel assemblies are stored in the spent fuel pool and a spent fuel pool verification has not been performed since the last movement of fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool. An appropriate ACTION and Surveillance Requirement have also been added. This changes the CTS by incorporating the requirements of ITS 3.7.15.
The purpose of ITS 3.7.15 is to ensure the accident analysis assumptions concerning the boron concentration in the spent fuel pool are met. A fuel assembly could be inadvertently loaded into a spent fuel rack location not allowed by LCO 3.7.16 (e.g., an unirradiated fuel assembly or an insufficiently depleted fuel assembly). This accident is analyzed assuming the case of loading an unirradiated assembly of the highest permissible enrichment into one of the storage cells intended for burned fuel, or in an empty cell between other fresh assemblies in the checkerboard pattern. This change is acceptable since the minimum boron concentration required by this LCO will ensure that keff will not exceed 0.95 if a fuel assembly is misloaded as described above. This change is designated as more restrictive because it adds new requirements to the CTS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 357 of 461 B 3.7.15 O* INSERT 1 The high density spent fuel pool storage racks in the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) are designed to assure that the effective neutron multiplication factor, keff, is < 0.95 with the racks fully loaded with fuel of the highest anticipated reactivity and flooded with unborated water.
O INSERT 2 Reactivity effects of abnormal and accident conditions have been evaluated to assure that under credible abnormal and accident conditions, the reactivity will not exceed 0.95, with credit for soluble boron in the pool water. Assuring the presence of soluble poison during fuel handling operations precludes the possibility of the simultaneous occurrence of two independent accident conditions.
Three potential accident scenarios, misloaded fresh fuel assembly, mislocated fresh fuel assembly, and a dropped fuel assembly, were analyzed to determine the effect the accidents would have on the effective neutron multiplication factor, kerr. The results of the analysis determined that a minimum boron concentration of 630 ppm in the SFP water is required to maintain keff at 0.945 for the worst-case accident scenario (i.e., a 5.05 weight percent enriched fresh fuel assembly misloaded in a Checkerboard pattern) (Ref. 1). The minimum boron concentration value of 630 ppm bounds all analyzed potential accident scenarios discussed below.
A misloaded fresh fuel assembly accident scenario analyzed misloading the assembly in the following five different locations: 1) misloading in the Mixed Zone Three Region (MZTR) inner rack 10x9; 2) misloading in the MZTR inner rack 10x9 (different location of a fresh assembly); 3) misloading in the MZTR side rack 1 0x8; 4) misloading in Homogeneous (45 BU) inner rack 10x9, and; 5) misloading in Checkerboard inner rack 10x9. The worst case scenario, misloading in Checkerboard inner rack 10x9, requires a minimum boron concentration of 627 ppm to assure that keff does not exceed 0.945.
The second potential accident scenario considers the mislocation of a fresh fuel assembly outside of a storage rack adjacent to other fuel assemblies. The worst case would be an assembly mislocated in a corner on the west side of the pool (next to MZTR outer rack 10x8 - 7xl). This scenario requires a minimum boron concentration of 448 ppm to assure that keff does not exceed 0.945.
The dropped fuel assembly accident considers three different scenarios: a dropped fuel assembly coming to rest horizontally on top of the rack; a dropped fuel assembly came to rest vertically into a location occupied by another assembly, and; dropping the fuel assembly into an unoccupied cell. In all cases, a minimum boron concentration of 53 ppm is adequate to assure that keff does not exceed 0.945.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 366 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.16, SPENT FUEL POOL STORAGE ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES A01 In the conversion of the Davis-Besse Current Technical Specifications (CTS) to the plant specific Improved Technical Specifications (ITS), certain changes (wording preferences, editorial changes, reformatting, revised numbering, etc.) are made to obtain consistency with NUREG-1430, Rev. 3.1, "Standard Technical Specifications-Babcock and Wilcox Plants" (ISTS).
These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 The CTS 3.9.13 Action, in part, states to suspend all other fuel movement within the spent fuel pool when the requirements of the Specification are not met.
ITS 3.7.16 ACTION A does not require this action. This changes the CTS by deleting the action to suspend all other fuel movement within the spent fuel pool.
This change is acceptable because the ITS 3.7.16 ACTION A requirement to immediately initiate action to move the non-complying fuel assembly infers that no other fuel movement can be in progress. Only one fuel assembly is moved at a time in the spent fuel storage pool. Therefore this change is considered administrative since it does not result in any technical changes to the CTS.
A03 CTS 3.9.13 Action, in part, states that with the requirements of the Specification not satisfied, to move the non-complying fuel assemblies to allowable locations in accordance with Figure 3.9-1. ITS 3.7.16 Required Action A.1 requires action to be immediately initiated to move the noncomplying fuel assembly to an allowable location. This changes the CTS by explicitly specifying that the compensatory action to move non-complying fuel assemblies to allowable locations requires an immediate response.
The purpose of the CTS 3.9.13 Action to move non-complying fuel assemblies to allowable locations is to help ensure the assumptions of the spent fuel pool storage analysis is met. The current action does not specify a time; however it implies that the action is immediate. This change is acceptable because it only provides clarification that the compensatory action requires an immediate response. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.
A04 The CTS 3.9.13 Action, in part, states that the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable. ITS 3.7.16 ACTION A does not include a Note similar to the exception in the CTS 3.9.13 Action. This changes the CTS by deleting the explicit exception from Specification 3.0.4 in CTS 3.9.13 Action.
This change is acceptable because it results in no technical change to the Technical Specifications. CTS 3.0.4 provides requirements to preclude changing MODES with inoperable equipment. However, ITS LCO 3.0.4 has been modified to allow MODE changes under certain circumstances. This is justified in the Discussion of Changes for ITS Section 3.0. Therefore, this specific exception to CTS 3.0.4 is not needed in the ITS. This change is designated as administrative because it does not result in a technical change to the CTS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 376 of 461 B 3.7.16 O* INSERT 1 The high density spent fuel pool storage racks are designed to maintain a keff equivalent to less than or equal to 0.95 when flooded with unborated water, which includes a conservative allowance for manufacturing tolerances and calculation uncertainty. The spent fuel pool facility is designed to assure the safe storage of irradiated fuel assemblies under normal and accident conditions. Each storage rack consists of a rectangular array of stainless steel cells with walls of 0.075 inches nominal thickness, spaced a nominal 9.22 inches on center in both directions. The neutron absorber material is utilized between each cell for criticality considerations.
The 21 spent fuel pool racks store a maximum of 1624 fuel assemblies. The rack cells are arranged in parallel rows with a center-to-center spacing of 9.22 inches.
O INSERT 2 A neutron absorber is attached to all four sides of each cell. In addition, there is a gap between individual racks and between the peripheral racks and the pool walls. These gaps form flux traps that reduces neutron movement between fuel assemblies in adjacent racks. Loading patterns maintain keff < 0.95 for fuel assemblies with initial nominal enrichments < 5.05 weight percent Uranium-235, assuming the spent fuel pool water is unborated.
O INSERT 3 The restrictions on the placement of fuel assemblies within the spent fuel pool as dictated by Figure 3.7.16-1 ensure that the kff of the spent fuel pool will always be
< 0.95 assuming the spent fuel pool is flooded with non-borated water. The restrictions delineated in Figure 3.7.16-1 and the Required Actions are consistent with the criticality safety analysis performed for the spent fuel pool (Ref. 1).
The criticality analyses qualify the high density rack modules for storage of the fuel assemblies in one of three different loading patterns subject to certain restrictions:
Mixed Zone Three Region (MZTR), Checkerboard (CB), and Homogeneous Loading (HL). Figure 3.7.16-1 provides the Category-specific burnup/enrichment limitations.
Different loading patterns may be used in different rack modules, provided each rack module contains only one loading pattern. The loading pattern restrictions are maintained in fuel handling administrative procedures.
MZTR is a loading pattern where fresh or low burnup assemblies (identified as Region 1 assemblies) are separated from each other and from intermediate burnup fuel assemblies (identified as Region 3 assemblies) by barrier fuel assemblies with high burnup (identified as Region 2 assemblies). CB is a loading pattern of empty cells, or cells with non-fuel bearing components, and cells with fresh or low burnup assemblies (Region 1). HL is a loading pattern of intermediate burnup fuel assemblies (Region 3). Region 2 assemblies correspond to Category A in Figure 3.7.16-1, Region 3 assemblies correspond to Category B in Figure 3.7.16-1, and Region 1 assemblies correspond to Category C in Figure 3.7.16-1.

BASES ACTIONS A.1 Required Action A.1 is modified by a Note indicating that LCO 3.0.3 does not apply. 0 When the configuration of fuel assemblies stored in the spent fuel pool is not in accordance with Figure [3.7.16-11 immediate action must be taken to make the necessary fuel assembly movement(s) to bring the configuration into compliance with Figure[R3.7.16-1[g.
"'ýIf moving fuel assemblies while in MODE 5 or 6, LCO 3.0.3 would not specify any action. If moving fuel assemblies while in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4, the fuel movement is independent of reactor operation. Therefore, in either case, inability to move fuel assemblies is not sufficient reason to require a reactor shutdown.

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
MORE RESTRICTIVE CHANGES M01 CTS Table 4.7-2 Item 2.a requires the DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 sampling frequency to be once per 31 days whenever the gross activity determination indicates iodine concentrations greater than 10% of the allowable limit. CTS Table 4.7-2 Item 2.b allows the sampling frequency for the DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 to be extended to once per 6 months whenever the gross activity determination indicates iodine concentrations below 10% of the allowable limits.
ITS SR 3.7.17.1 does not provide this extended 6 month time frame for determining the DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 and requires verification of specific activity of the secondary coolant every 31 days. This changes the CTS by deleting CTS Table 4.7-2 Item 2.b and the CTS Table 4.7-2 Item 2.a qualifying statement of "whenever the gross activity determination indicates iodine concentrations greater than 10% of the allowable limit" in Item 2.a, and keeping the Frequency at 31 days all the time.
This change is acceptable because the 31 day Frequency is appropriate to detect trends in the secondary coolant level of DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 and allows for appropriate action to be taken to maintain levels below the LCO limit.
This change is designated as more restrictive because it requires the DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 concentration to be determined every 31 days whenever the unit is in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 while not allowing a Frequency extension to once every 6 months based on the gross activity determination.
RELOCATED SPECIFICATIONS None REMOVED DETAIL CHANGES LA01 (Type 3 - Removing ProceduralDetails for Meeting TS Requirements or Reporting Requirements) CTS Table 4.7-2 Item 2 requires an isotopic analysis to determine whether DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 concentration is within limit.
ITS SR 3.7.17.1 requires the verification that specific activity of the secondary coolant is within limit (< 0.10 pCi/gm DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131). This changes the CTS by moving the detail that an isotopic analysis must be performed to satisfy the requirements of the Surveillance to the Bases.
Davis-Besse Page 1 of 2 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 385 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 386 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.17, SECONDARY SPECIFIC ACTIVITY The removal of this detail for performing a Surveillance Requirement from the Technical Specifications is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to be included in the Technical Specifications to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. ITS SR 3.7.17.1 still retains the requirement to verify secondary coolant DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 is within limit.
Also, this change is acceptable because this type of procedural detail will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5. This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category5 - Deletion of Surveillance Requirement) CTS Table 4.7-2 Item 1 requires that the gross activity determination be completed once per 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.
ITS 3.7.17 does not require any sampling to be performed to determine the gross activity of the secondary coolant. This changes the CTS by deleting the requirement for gross activity determination.
The purpose of CTS Table 4.7-2 Item 1 is to determine the gross activity in order to determine the sampling Frequency for secondary coolant DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131. Based on the gross activity, the sample Frequency for determining DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 can be extended to once per 6 months from once per 31 days. This change is acceptable because the deleted Surveillance Requirement is not necessary to verify that the values used to meet the LCO are consistent with the safety analysis. Thus, appropriate values continue to be tested in a manner and at a Frequency necessary to give confidence that the assumptions in the safety analyses are protected. ITS SR 3.7.17.1 requires that the DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 be determined every 31 days without any allowance for an extension of this Frequency. The secondary coolant DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 is used in the accident analyses.
The gross activity of the secondary coolant is not used in any accident analysis.
This change is designated as less restrictive because a Surveillance that is required in the CTS will not be required in the ITS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 391 of 461 Secondary Specific Activity B 3.7.17 B 3.7 PLANT SYSTEMS B 3.7.17 Secondary Specific Activity BASES BACKGROUND Activity in the secondary coolant results from steam generator tube out-LEAKAGE from the Reactor Coolant System (RCS). Under steady state conditions, the activity is primarily iodines with relatively short half lives and, thus, indicative of current conditions. During transients, 1-131 spikes have been observed, as well as increased releases of some noble gases.
Other fission product isotopes, as well as activated corrosion products, in lesser amounts, may also be found in the secondary coolant.
A limit on secondary coolant specific activity during power operation minimizes releases to the environment because of normal operation, anticipated operational occurrences, and accidents.
This limit is lower than the activity value that might be expected from a 1 gpm tube leak (LCO 3.4.13, "RCS Operational Leakage") of primary coolant at the limit of 1.0 pCi/gm (LCO 3.4.16, "RCS Specific Activity").
The steam line failure is assumed to result in the release of the noble gas and iodine activity contained in the steam generator inventory, the feedwater, and the reactor coolant leakage. Most of the iodine isotopes have short half lives (i.e., < 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br />).

Monitoring the specific activity of the secondary coolant ensures that, when secondary specific activity limits are exceeded, appropriate actions are taken, in a timely manner, to place the unit in an operational MODE that would minimize the radiological consequences of a DBA.
APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the limits on secondary specific activity apply due to the potential for secondary steam releases to the atmosphere.
In MODES 5 and 6, the steam generators are not being used for heat removal. Both the RCS and steam generators are at low pressure and primary to secondary LEAKAGE is minimal. Therefore, monitoring of secondary specific activity is not required.

These changes are designated as administrative changes and are acceptable because they do not result in technical changes to the CTS.
A02 The CTS 3.7.9 Action requires the unit to be ultimately placed in COLD SHUTDOWN (MODE 5) when the steam generator water level is not within limits.
ITS 3.7.18 ACTION B only requires placing the unit in MODE 4. This changes the CTS by only requiring the unit to be in MODE 4 in lieu of MODE 5 when outside the SG water level limits.
The purpose of the CTS 3.7.9 Action is to place the unit outside the Applicability of the LCO. CTS 3.7.9 includes MODE 4 SG water level requirements, thus placing the unit in MODE 5 was appropriate. ITS 3.7.18 only includes MODES 1, 2, and 3 SG water level requirements. The MODE 4 requirement has been removed as described in DOC LA01. Thus, the ITS 3.7.18 ACTION B requirement is consistent with placing the unit outside the Applicability of ITS 3.7.18.

The ITS retains the requirement in ITS 3.4.5 that two RCS loops be OPERABLE and in ITS 3.4.6 that any combination of two DHR or RCS loops be OPERABLE. When the RCS loops are required OPERABLE, this will require the associated SGs to be OPERABLE and capable of removing decay heat (i.e., water level > 18 inches above the lower tube sheet and < 625 inches full range level), as stated in the ITS 3.4.5 and ITS 3.4.6 Bases. If the SG water level is not within the limit specified such that decay heat removal capability does not exist, the associated RCS loop would be inoperable and the appropriate ACTIONS of ITS 3.4.5 or ITS 3.4.6 would be entered. Also, this change is acceptable because these types of procedural details will be adequately controlled in the ITS Bases. Changes to the Bases are controlled by the Technical Specification Bases Control Program in Chapter 5.
This program provides for the evaluation of changes to ensure the Bases are properly controlled. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because procedural details for meeting Technical Specification requirements are being removed from the Technical Specifications.
LESS RESTRICTIVE CHANGES L01 (Category 1 - Relaxation of LCO Requirements) CTS 3.7.9 requires a minimum of 18 inches in each steam generator (SG) in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. ITS 3.7.18 does not include any minimum SG level requirements. This changes the CTS by deleting the minimum SG level requirements from this Technical Specification.
The purpose of the minimum SG level requirement is to ensure adequate level in the SG so it can perform its heat removal function. This change is acceptable because the minimum level requirement is not necessary in this Specification to ensure the heat removal function. The Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) Instrumentation includes an actuation on low steam generator level. The Allowable Value for the Steam Generator Level - Low Function is
> 17.3 inches (ITS Table 3.3.11-1 Function 3), and it is required in MODES 1, 2, and 3. However, the actual trip setpoint for this Function is approximately 23 inches. When actuated, the SFRCS instrumentation initiates the Auxiliary Feedwater System (AFW) to restore SG water level, and send a signal to the Anticipatory Reactor Trip System (ARTS), which will then generate a reactor trip signal. This results in the unit being automatically placed in MODE 3. While the ARTS is not maintained in the ITS, it is being maintained in the Technical Requirements Manual. ITS 3.4.5, "RCS Loops - MODE 3," and ITS 3.4.6, "RCS Loops - MODE 4," provide the loop requirements to ensure decay heat can be removed when in these MODES. ITS 3.4.5 requires two RCS loops to be OPERABLE and ITS 3.4.6 requires two loops of any combination of RCS loops and decay heat removal (DHR) loops. The LCO section of the Bases for both of these Specifications states that an OPERABLE RCS loop includes an OPERBLE SG. The Bases further states that an OPERABLE SG requires at least
> 18 inches of secondary side water level above the lower tube sheet.
Therefore, maintaining a specific minimum SG water level requirement in the Technical Specifications is not required, since other plant systems (ARTS) and other ITS requirements (ITS 3.3.11, ITS 3.4.5, and ITS 3.4.6) in combination with other plant design features (ARTS) will ensure adequate decay heat removal Davis-Besse Page 2 of 3 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 403 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 404 of 461 DISCUSSION OF CHANGES ITS 3.7.18, STEAM GENERATOR LEVEL capability using an RCS loop is maintained. This change is designated as less restrictive because less stringent LCO requirements are being applied in the ITS than were applied in the CTS.
L02 (Category 3 - Relaxation of Completion Time) CTS 3.7.9 Action states that when SG water level for one or more SGs is outside the limits, be in HOT STANDBY (MODE 3) within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and COLD SHUTDOWN (MODE 5) within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />. No time is provided to restore a SG water level prior to requiring a unit shutdown. Under similar conditions, ITS 3.7.18 ACTION A provides a 15 minute restoration time prior to requiring a unit shutdown. This changes the CTS by providing 15 minutes to restore the SG water level to within limits prior to requiring a unit shutdown. The change in the requirement to be in MODE 5 is discussed in DOC A02.
The purpose of CTS 3.7.9 Action is to restore the SDM to within its limit promptly.
This change is acceptable because the Completion Time is consistent with safe operation under the specified Condition, considering the low probability of a DBA occurring during the allowed Completion Time, and provides a reasonable time for restoring the SG water level. The ITS 3.7.18 Required Action A.1 Completion Time of 15 minutes is considered a reasonable time for an operator to restore SG water level to within limits, and avoids an unnecessary unit shutdown if the problem can be promptly restored. This change is designated as less restrictive because additional time is allowed to restore parameters to within the LCO limits than was allowed in the CTS.

- 1. ISTS 3.7.18 has been modified to include MODE 3 steam generator water level requirements. The Davis-Besse main steam line break accident analysis assumes a maximum water level to ensure both the containment pressure and the SHUTDOWN MARGIN is maintained within limits. Maintaining the steam generator water level within limits in MODE 3 prevents a containment over-pressurization event and a return to criticality concern following a main steam line break. Thus LCO 3.7.18 includes the Davis-Besse current licensing basis MODE 3 water level limits. Due to this addition, ISTS 3.7.18 ACTION B has been modified to include a shutdown to MODE 4. Furthermore, due to the addition of LCO 3.0.6, a Note has been added to ensure the applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.1.1, "SHUTDOWN MARGIN (SDM)," are entered when steam generator water level is not met in MODE
- 3. This is also consistent with the Davis-Besse current licensing basis, since CTS 3.7.9 includes a Note (footnote *) that references the SHUTDOWN MARGIN requirements.
- 2. Since Condition B applies to all Conditions in the ACTIONS Table, the term "of Condition A" is not necessary. This is consistent with the Writer's Guide for the Improved Standard Technical Specifications, TSTF-GG-05-01, Section 4.1.6.i.5.ii.
- 3. The Davis-Besse Steam Superheat verses maximum Allowable Operating Level curve is substituted for the curve provided for illustration in the ISTS.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 412 of 461 Steam Generator Level B 3.7.18 B 3.7 PLANT SYSTEMS B 3.7.18 Steam Generator Level BASES BACKGROUND A principal function of the steam generators is to provide superheated LJ steam at a constant pressureýQ psia) over the power range. Steam generator water inventory is maintained large enough to provide 0
adequate primary to secondary heat transfer. Mass inventory and indicated water level in the steam generator increases with load as the length of the four heat transfer regions within the steam generator vary.
Inventory is controlled indirectly as a function of power and maintenance of a constant average primary system temperature by the feedwater controls in the Integrated Control System.
The maximum opera tig steam generator level is based primarily on preserving the initial ndition assumptions for stea generator inventory used in the FSAR s am line break (SLB) analysis ( ef. 1). An inventory of 62,600 lb was u ed in this analysis. The 62,600 - must not be exceeded due to t e concerns of a possible return o criticality because of 0 primary side cool' g following an SLB and the ma imum pressure in the reactor building.
For a clean once through steam generator, the mass inventory in a steam Senerator for operating at 100% power is approximately 39,0 0 lb to 0 lb.
As a steam generator becomes fouled and the operating level approaches the limit of 96%, the mass inventory in the downcomer region increases approximately 10,000 lb, and adds to the total mass inventory of the steam generator. In matching unit data of startup level versus power, the steam generator performance codes have shown that fouling of the lower tube support plates does not significantly change the heat transfer characteristics of the steam generator. Thus, the steam temperature, or superheat, is not degraded due to the fouling of the tube support plates, and mass inventory changes are mainly due to the added level in the downcomer.
Analytically, increasing the fouling of the steam generator tube surfaces degrades the heat transfer capability of the steam generator, increases the mass inventory, and decreases the steam superheat at 100% p 1(2540 MWV. The results were presented as the amount of mass inventory in each steam generator versus operating range level and steam 0 superheat.

( INSERT 1 The maximum operating steam generator level is based primarily on preserving the initial condition assumptions for the steam generator inventory used in the main steam line break (MSLB) accident analysis (Ref. 1). The mass and energy release data that are input into the peak pressure analysis of the containment vessel were generated with the TRAP computer code. The analysis was performed with the bounding plant conditions to maximize heat generated in the Reactor Coolant System (RCS), heat transfer from the primary to secondary systems, and maximum inventory in the steam generators. Each of these conditions maximizes the mass and energy release from the MSLB. The analysis includes evaluation of the reactivity transient due to the MSLB.

Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 414 of 461 Steam Generator Level B 3.7.18 BASES BACKGROUND (continued)
The limiting curve, which was determined from several steam generator performance code runs at a power level of 100%, conservatively bounds steam generator mass inventory value, when operating at power levels
< 100%.
2 The points displayed in Figure 3.7.18-1[ in the acoManvin are the intercept points of the 57,000 lb mass value, and the operating range level x and steam superheat values.
The steam generator performance analysis also indicated that startup and full range level instruments are inadequate indicators of steam generator mass inventory at high power levels due to the combination of static and dynamic pressure losses. If the water level should rise above the 96%
upper limit, the steam superheat would tend to decrease due to reduced feedwater heating through the aspirator ports. Normally, a reduction in water level is manually initiated to maintain steam flow through the aspirator port by reducing the power level. Thus, the superheat versus level limitation also tends to ensure that, in normal operation, water level will remain clear of the aspirator ports.
Feedwater nozzle flooding would impair feedwater heating, and could result in excessive tube to shell temperature differentials, excessive tubesheet temperature differentials, and large variations in pressurizer level.
APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES main-The most limiting Design Basis Accident that would be affected by steam
ýgenerator operating level is a team line failure. This accident is evaluated in Reference 1. The parameter of interest is the mass of water, 0
or inventory, contained in the steam generator due to its role in lowering Reactor Coolant System (RCS) temperature (return to criticality concern),
and in raising containment pressure during angSLB accident. A higher {. 0 inventory causes the effects of the accident to be more severe.

The limitation on steam generator pressures and temperatures ensures that pressure-induced stresses on the steam generators do not exceed the maximum allowable fracture toughness limits. These pressure and temperature limits are based on maintaining a steam generator RTNDT sufficient to prevent brittle fracture. As such, the Technical Specification places limits on variables consistent with structural analysis results. However, these limits are not initial condition assumptions of a DBA or transient. These limits represent operating restrictions and Criterion 2 includes operating restrictions.
However, it should be noted that in the Final Policy Statement the Criterion 2 discussion specified only those operating restrictions required to preclude unanalyzed accidents and transients be included in Technical Specifications.
This Specification does not meet the criteria for retention in the ITS; therefore, it is not included in the ITS. This changes the CTS by relocating this Specification to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
This change is acceptable because CTS 3.7.2.1 does not meet the 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) criteria for inclusion into the ITS.
10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) Criteria Evaluation:
- 1. The steam generator pressure and temperature limits are not used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).
- 2. The steam generator pressure and temperature limits are not a process variable, design feature, or operating restrictions that are an initial condition of a DBA or transient.
- 3. The steam generator pressure and temperature limits are not part of the primary success path in the mitigation of a DBA or transient.
- 4. As discussed in B&W Owners Group Technical Report 47-1170689-00 (Appendix A pages A-73 and A-74), the steam generator pressure and temperature limits were found to be a non-significant risk contributor to core damage frequency and offsite releases. Davis-Besse has reviewed this evaluation, considers it applicable to Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, and concurs with the assessment.

This specification with the exception of CTS 3.7.7 Action a is not included in the ITS. This changes the CTS by moving the explicit snubber requirements from the Technical Specifications to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
The removal of these details from the Technical Specification is acceptable because this type of information is not necessary to provide adequate protection of public health and safety. The purpose of CTS 3.7.7 Action a is to ensure that the structural integrity of the reactor coolant system and all other safety related systems is maintained during and following a seismic or other event initiating dynamic loads. This change is acceptable because the LCO requirements continue to ensure that the structures, systems, and components are maintained consistent with the safety analyses and licensing basis. The requirement to perform snubber inspections is specified in 10 CFR 50.55a and the requirement to perform snubber inspections and testing is specified in ASME Section XI, as modified by approved relief requests. Therefore, both Davis-Besse commitments and NRC Regulations or generic guidance will contain the necessary programmatic requirements for the inspection and testing of safety related snubbers without repeating them in the ITS. Also, this change is acceptable because the removed information will be adequately controlled in the TRM. The TRM is currently incorporated by reference into the UFSAR, thus any changes to the TRM are made under 10 CFR 50.59, which ensures changes are properly evaluated. This change is designated as a less restrictive removal of detail change because a requirement is being removed from the Technical Specifications.

The limitations on sealed source contamination are intended to ensure that the total body and individual organ irradiation doses do not exceed allowable limits in the event of ingestion or inhalation. This is done by imposing a maximum limitation of < 0.005 microcuries of removable contamination on each sealed source. This requirement and the associated surveillance requirements bear no relation to the conditions or limitations that are necessary to ensure safe reactor operation. This specification does not meet the criteria for retention in the ITS; therefore, it is not included in the ITS. This changes the CTS by relocating the Specification to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
This change is acceptable because CTS 3.7.8.1 does not meet the 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) criteria for inclusion into the ITS.
10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) Criteria Evaluation:
- 1. Sealed source contamination is not used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).
- 2. Sealed source contamination is not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient.
- 3. Sealed source contamination is not part of a primary success path in the mitigation of a DBA or transient.
- 4. As discussed in B&W Owners Group Technical Report 47-1170689-00 (Appendix A pages A-77 and A-78), sealed source contamination was found to be non-significant risk contributor to core damage frequency and offsite releases. Davis-Besse has reviewed this evaluation, considers it applicable to Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, and concurs with the assessment.
Since the 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) criteria have not been met, the Sealed Source Contamination LCO and associated Surveillance may be relocated out of the Technical Specifications.

- 1. ISTS 3.7.4, "Atmospheric Vent Valves (AVVs)" is not being adopted because Davis-Besse does not credit the AVVs in the accident analysis. ISTS 3.7.4 Bases Background Section states that the Atmospheric Vent Valves (AVVs) provide a method for cooling the unit to decay heat removal (DHR) entry conditions, should the preferred heat sink via the Turbine Bypass System to the condenser not be available. ISTS 3.7.4 Bases Applicable Safety Analyses Section further states that the AVVs are assumed to be used by the operator to cool down the unit to MODE 3 for accidents accompanied by a loss of offsite power. At Davis-Besse, the AVVs are not credited in the accident analysis. Steaming the non-faulted steam generator to the main condenser and the Main Steam Safety Valves are credited with this function. Therefore, it is not necessary to include the AVVs.

BASES BACKGROUND The AWs provi amthod for cooling the unit to decay heat removal (DNR) et.r;ý onditiaon~sshould the preferred heat sink via the Turbine B *system
-- to the condenser not be available, as discussed in the SAR, Section [10.3] (Ref. 1). This is done in conjunction with the Emergency Feedwater System, providing cooling water from the condensate storage tank (CST). The AWs may also be required to meet the design cooldown rate during a normal cooldown when steam pressure drops too low for maintenance of a vacuum in the condenser to permit use of the Turbine Bypass System.
[The AVVs are provided with upstream block valves to permit t eing tested at power, and to provide an alternate means of is *on.]
The AWs are equipped with pneumatic con ers to permit control of the cooldown rate.
[The AVVs are providedi a pressurized gas supply of bottled nitrogen that, on loss of pre e in the normal instrument air supply, automatically supplies nitr to operate the AVVs. The nitrogen supply is sized to provid cient pressurized gas to operate the AVVs for the time ired for Reactor Coolant System (RCS) cooldown to DHR entry conditions. )
A description of the AWs is found in Reference 1.
APPLICABLE The design basis of the AVVs is established by the capability to cool the SAFETY unit to MODE 3. The design rate of [75]°F per hour is applicable for both ANALYSES steam generators, each with one AW. This rate is adequate to cool unit to DHR entry conditions with only one AVV and one stea erator utilizing the cooling water supply available in the CST.
In the accident analysis presented in Refere 1, the AVVs are assumed to be used by the operator to cool do unit to MODE 3 for accidents accompanied by a loss of offsit wer. Prior to operator actions to cool down the unit, the AWs e main steam safety valves (MSSVs) are assumed to operat omatically to relieve steam and maintain the BWOG STS B 3.7.4-1 Rev. 3.0, 03/31/04 Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 457 of 461
Attachment 1, Volume 12, Rev. 0, Page 458 of 461 A\Ns B 3.7.4 BASES APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES (continued) steam generator's pressure and ter ature below the design value.
This is about 30 minutes fol1o .initiation of an event; however, this may be less for a stea herator tube rupture (SGTR) event. Some initiating events .g into this category are a main steam line break upstream o main steam isolation valves, a feedwater line break, and anSn S event (although the AWs on the affected steam generator may
. be available following an SGTR event).
For the recovery from an SGTR event, the operator is also required to perform a limited cooldown to establish adequate subcooling as a necessary step to terminate the primary to secondary break flow into the ruptured steam generator. The time required to terminate the primary to secondary break flow for an SGTR is more critical than the time require to cool down to DHR conditions for this event, and also for other accidents. Thus, the SGTR is the limiting event for the AV lhe number of AWs required to be OPERABLE to satise SGTR accident analysis requirements depends upon the cons ation of any single failure assumptions regarding the failur one AW to open on demand.
[The design must accommo the single failure of one AW to open on demand, thus eachs AWs are equi generator must have at least one AVV. The with manual block valves in the event an AW

he AVVs satisfy Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).
LCO [Two] AVVs [lines per steam generator] are required to be OPERABLE.
Failure to meet the LCO can result in the inability to cool the unit to DHR entry conditions following an event in which the condenser is unavailable for use with the Steam Bypass System.
An AW is considered OPERABLE when it is capable of providin controlled relief of the main steam flow, and is capable off opening and closing on demand.
APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, and 3, and in MODE 4 en steam generator is being relied upon for heat removal, t1h s are required to be OPERABLE.
In MODES 5 and 6, GTR is not a credible event.

This SR ensures that the AWs are tested through control cycle at least once per fuel cycle. Performance of ins ice testing or use of an AW during a unit cooldown may satis s requirement. Operating experience has shown that these ponents usually pass the Surveillance when perfor t the [18] month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency is a able from a reliability standpoint.

[SR 3.7.4.2 The function of the blo a ye is to isolate a failed open AVV. Cycling the block valve c d and open demonstrates its ability to perform this function. Pormance of inservice testing or use of the block valve dun nit cooldown may satisfy this requirement.
