QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DIS TRACTOR ANALYSIS:
A. Incorrect. Plausible because most control room switches are rotated counterclockwise to stop the associated equipment, the turbine trip switch is turned to other direction and ES-U. 5 will be directed to be performed by step 6 in FR-S. 1 while continuing performance of the FR.
B. Correct. The handswitch must be rotated clockwise, which is opposite the normal direction of turning a switch to turn-off a piece of equipment, this causes the red indicating light to go out and the green light illuminates.
ES-U. 5 will be directed to be performed by step 6 as a result of the Safety Injection.
C. Incorrect. Plausible because most control room switches are rotated counterclockwise to stop the associated equipment and ES-U. 5 performance would not be performed had an SI not occurred.
D. Incorrect. Plausible because the handswitch must be rotated clockwise which causes the red indicating light to go out and ES-U. 5 performance would not be performed had an SI not occurred.

PLANT SYSTEMS BASES Q = Nominal NSSS power rating of the plant (including reactor coolant pump heat), Mwt K = Conversion factor, 947.82 (Btu/sec)
Mwt W = Minimum total steam flow rate capability of the operable MSSVs on any one steam generator at the highest MSSV opening pressure including tolerance and accumulation, as appropriate, in lb/sec. For example, if the maximum number of inoperable MSSVs on any one steam generator is one, then Ws should be a summation of the capacity of the operable MSSVs at the highest operable MSSV r.operating pressure, excluding the highest capacity MSSV. If the maximum number of inoperable MSSVs per steam generator is three then W should be a summation of the capacity of the operable MSSVs at the highest operable MSSV operating pressure, excluding the three highest capacity MSSVs.
hfg = heat of vaporization for steam at the highest MSSV opening pressure including tolerance and accumulation, as appropriate, Btu,lbm N = Number of loops in plant The values calculated from this algorithm must then be adjusted lower to account for instrument and channel uncertainties.
3/4.7.1.2 AUXILIARY FEEDWATER SYSTEM The AFW System is configured into three trains. The AFW System is considered OPERABLE when the components and flow paths required to provide redundant AFW flow to the steam generators are OPERABLE. This requires that the two motor-driven AFW pumps be OPERABLE in two diverse paths, each supplying AFW to separate steam generators. The turbine-driven AFW pump is required to be OPERABLE with redundant steam supplies from each of two main steam lines upstream of the MSIVs, and shall be capable of supplying AFW to any steam generator. The piping, valves, instrumentation, and controls in the required flow paths also are required to be OPERABLE.
The AFW System mitigates the consequences of any event with loss of normal feedwater.
The design basis of the AFW System is to supply 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 while pumping against the highest credible steam generator pressure.
In addition, the AFW System must supply enough makeup water to replace steam generator secondary inventory lost as the unit cools to MODE 4 conditions. Sufficient AFW flow must also be available to account for flow losses such as pump recirculation and line breaks.

Clarification Guidance for SRO-only Questions Rev 1 (0311112010)
Ill. Justification for Plant Specific Exemptions The 25 SRO-only questions shall evaluate the additional knowledge and abilities required for the higher license level in accordance with 10 CFR 55.43(b). [NUREG 1021, Section ES-401D.2.dJ The fact that a facility licensee trains its ROs to master certain 10 CFR 55.43 knowledge, skills, and abilities does NOT mean that they can no longer be used as a basis for SRO-only questions. [Operator Licensing Feedback Web page Item 401.36 @ http://www.nrc.gov!reactors/operator-hcensing/op-Iicensing-files/oI-feedback.odfl The SRO-only test item is required to be tied to one of the 10 CFR 55.43(b) items. However, if a licensee desires to evaluate a knowledge/ability that is not tied to one of the 10 CFR 55.43(b) items, then the licensee can classify the knowledge/ability as unique to the SRO position provided that there is documented evidence that ties the knowledge/ability to the licensees SRO job position duties in accordance with the systematic approach to training (SAT).
> Justification: A question that is not tied to one of the 10 CFR 55.43(b) items can still be classified as SRO-only provided the licensee has documented evidence to prove that the knowledge/ability is unique to the SRO position at the site. An example of documented evidence includes:
o The question is linked to a learning objective that is specifically labeled in the lesson plan as being SRO-only (e.g., some licensee lesson plans have columns in the margin that differentiate AO, RO, and SRO learning objectives) [NUREG 1021, ES-401, Section D.2.dj AND/OR o A question is linked to a task that is labeled as an SRO-only task, and the task is NOT listed in the RO task list.

SQN EOl BASIS DOCUMENT FOR ECA-O.0 EPM-3-ECA-0.O PROGRAM LOSS OF ALL AC POWER Rev. 11 MANUAL Page 33 of 94 EOP Step Number: 13 MONITOR if DC load shed required:
Purpose:
To complete a DC load shed if three or more shutdown boards are deenergized.
ERG Basis:
N/A EOP Basis:
Following loss of all AC power, the station batteries are the only source of electrical power.
The station batteries supply the DC busses and the AC vital instrument busses. With no AC power available to charge the station batteries, battery power supply must be conserved to permit monitoring and control of the plant until AC power can be restored.
In order for SQN to satisfy the 4-hour battery coping requirement in accordance with IOCFR5O.63, Station Blackout Rule, it is necessary to strip certain non-essential loads from the 125 V vital batteries and the 250 V station batteries within prescribed time limits.
250V DC battery chargers are normally powered from 480V AB Common Board. This board will be de-energized on a loss of off-site power. Since shutdown boards are de-energized, alternate power sources to the 250V battery charger is not available and 250V load-shedding must be initiated.
If three of the four 6900 V shutdown boards are deenergized, then the majority of the I25VDC vital battery chargers are de-energized. Therefore, vital ac and dc loads must be stripped to extend vital battery life.
Guidance provided in EA-250-2 will depressurize the main generator to between 2 and 3 psig so there is no hydrogen explosion hazard. This is necessary because the air-side seal oil backup pump must be shed within 90 minutes (DCN E20362A), and the effectiveness of the shaft seal oil to prevent hydrogen leakage to atmosphere will be lost as a result. The generator pressure criteria is based on the values on the vendor drawing for the Hydrogen Seal Oil System. DCN M9120A assumes that the emergency oil pump motor is load shed at 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> after the event.

QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DISTRACTOR ANAL YSIS:
A. Incorrect, Plausible because continue to drop load would be a correct action for frequency errors of a lower magnitude and de-energizing the shutdown boards one-at-a-time to cause DIGs to supply the boards is a correct action directed in the annunciator response if the frequency is low.
B. Incorrect, Plausible because continue to drop load would be a correct action for frequency errors of a lower magnitude and because declaring both offsite lines inoperable is correct.
C. Incorrect, Plausible because tripping the reactor is correct and de-energizing the shutdown boards one-at-a-time to cause DIGs to supply the boards is a correct action directed in the annunciator response if the frequency is low.
D. Correct, The action to trip the reactor and to declare both offsite power sources inoperable are contained in the Annunciator Response for STA FREQ EXCESSIVE ERROR. Declaring the lines inoperable is required because of the Thability to contact the dispatcher.

SQN NORMAL POWER OPERATION 0-GO-5 Unit I & 2 Rev. 0065 Page 10 of 100 31 Precautions (continued)
R. The following limitations are applicable to Unit Two ONLY.
- 1. In winter months #7 HDTP capacity is not adequate to pump #6 Heater drains when all Condensate Demineralizer pumps are in service. Current practice is to run two Cond DI Pumps and / or throttle the condensate system to reduce backpressure. The preferred method is to throttle condensate pressure instead of running only two Condensate Demineralizer booster pumps at full power due to pump runout concerns.
- 2. Siemens-Westinghouse analysis has determined that the maximum unit power with one MFP operation is 65% under worst case conditions. The plant could operate higher if plant conditions permit.
Flow rates above this would result in HP steam flow to the lead MFPT.
Computer points 1(2)U0504 and UO505 can be used to monitor.
S. Voltage Control NOTE Failure to comply with the NERC VAR-002 requirement could result in a Utility Violation and I or monetary penalties.
- 1. Operation of the Main Generator without Automatic Voltage Control could impact grid voltage requirements. Refer to GOI-6 for MVAR limits.
- 2. When the Main Generator is connected to the grid, the voltage regulator shall be operated in Automatic, unless coordinated with the Transmission Operator (SELD).
- 3. Main Generator operation outside of the Transmission Voltage Schedule requires coordination with the Transmission Operator, and notation in the operators Log of time, reason, and that the Transmission Operator notification was made.
- 4. When directed to modify voltage, the Generator Operator shall comply (within plant procedural requirements) or provide an explanation of why the schedule cannot be met.
- 5. While the Main Generator is tied to the grid perform the following:
- a. The Transmission Operator (SELD) shall be notified of any Voltage Regulator automatic trips to Manual or urgent Manual Transfers between AUTO and Manual as soon as practical but notification shall be within 30 minutes.
SQN NORMAL POWER OPERATION 0-GO-5 Unit I & 2 Rev. 0065 Page 11 of 100 3.1 Precautions (continued)
- b. The Transmission Operator (SELD) shall be notified prior to a planned Voltage Regulator transfers between Manual and Auto.
- c. All position changes (to and from Auto or Manual) of the Voltage Regulator shall be entered into the Narrative Log along with the date, time of position change, reasons, anticipated duration and notifications made.
T. Reliability Directives and Protective Relay/Equipment Failures NOTE Failure to comply with the NERO VAR-002 requirement could result in a Utility Violation and / or monetary penalties.
- 1. Plant Operations shall notify the Transmission Balancing Authority (BA) or Transmission Operator of protective relay or equipment failures that creates a creditable risk to Plant Generation. A creditable risk to generation represents a potential reduction in transmission system reliability.
- 2. Reliability Directives to the Generator Operator are via the Balancing Authority or Transmission Operator. Required action time may range from immediate to no longer than 30 minutes. Actions shall be taken without delay. The directives may be associated with preventing or clearing Local System issues, or neighboring system issues.
- 3. Plant operations shall take timely actions as directed by the Balancing Authority or Transmission Operator to mitigate critical conditions to return the bulk electrical system to a reliable state. Plant operations shall comply with Balancing Authority or Transmission Operator directives unless such actions would violate safety, equipment, or regulatory or statutory requirements.
- 4. Plant Operations shall immediately inform the Balancing Authority or Transmission Operator of the inability to perform directives so that the TVA Reliability Entities may implement alternate remedial actions.

QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DIS TRACTOR ANAL YSIS:
A. Incorrect, Plausible since first part is correct a slow boration is taking place, however the procedure guidance should be from AOP-C.02 for uncontrolled RCS boration not AOP-C.O1 due to rod control problems.
B. Correct, The indications would indicate that an uncontrolled boration is taking place causing a negative reactivity to be added to the RCS, thus outward rod motion to compensate. The correct procedure for this condition is AOP-C.02.
C. Incorrect, Plausible since Red and Green lights would indicate that the emergency boration valve is not full closed, and with some indicated flow then a boration would be taking place. However the correct procedure would be AOP-C.02.
D. Incorrect, Plausible since Red and Green lights would indicate that the emergency boration valve is not full closed, however with no indicated flow then a boration would not be occurring. The correct procedure for an uncontrolled boration is A OP-C. 02.

- SQN EMERGENCY GAS TREATMENT 0-SO-65-1 Unit 0, 1, & 2 SYSTEM Rev. 0019 AIR CLEANUP AND ANNULUS Page 6 of 54 VACUUM 3.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS A. Manual Q Automatic operation of EGTS while in service for either unit makes it inoperable for opposite unit.
B. When EGTS Air Cleanup is placed in service on unit where personnel are in annulus, it becomes an ALARA concern if other unit is in Mode 1-4 and receives Phase A Isolation signal. When EGTS Air Cleanup is placed in service on unit where annulus is open, it becomes an OPERABILITY concern if other unit is in Mode 1-4 and receives Phase A Isolation signal. Assignment and action of dedicated operator within this instruction provides protection for personnel in annulus and will ensure operability of EGTS on other unit. [C.3]
C. The following guidance is provided regarding operability impact when any EGTS decay cooling valve is inoperable and EGTS fans are capable of starting (Refer to Precaution and Limitation M when one EGTS train is Out of Service):
When EGTS decay cooling valve 0-FCV-65-28A or -28B is inoperable, then EGTS Train B is inoperable. When decay cooling valve 0-FCV-65-47A or -47B is inoperable, then EGTS Train A is inoperable. This operability position is based upon the following:
(1) 0-FCV-65-28A and -28B are powered from DC Channel II and IV (Train B) and are supplied from Train B essential air and, therefore, should be tied to operability of EGTS Train B to maintain train separation Similarly, 0-FCV 47A and B are supplied from Train A.
(2) FSAR 6.2.3.3.2 describes the functional requirement for the running EGTS train to provide cooling flow to the inactive filter bank to maintain temperatures within acceptable limits. Therefore, the decay cooling function is treated as a support function which must be provided by the operable train.
D. Either Train A flow divider dampers I (2)-PCO-65-80 &
I (2)-PCO-65-88 or Train B flow divider dampers I (2)-PCO-65-82 &
I(2)-PCO-65-89 will modulate to control vacuum in annulus at 0.5 inch of H
- 0, 2
whenever EGTS Air Cleanup is operating.
E. Normal EGTS damper operating limits are 0.2 to 1.2 inches of H
- - O zP 2
between annulus and outside pressure (atmospheric). Capability to automatically initiate high P swapover to opposite train zP control can only be armed by Phase-A Containment Isolation Signal after AP reduces to less negative than 0.7 inches H
- 0 or 4 minutes, 10 seconds, after Phase-A signal 2
initiation.
F. Do not depress EGTS Air Cleanup damper local RESET switches during an accident. The swapover control circuit would be blocked by reset action and would r be able to reach arming setpoint.
SQN EMERGENCY GAS TREATMENT 0-50-65-1 Unit 0, 1, & 2 SYSTEM Rev. 0019 AIR CLEANUP AND ANNULUS Page 7 of 54 VACUUM 3.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS (continued)
NOTE When venting containment, it is normal for I (2)-PCO-65-93(-96) and I (2)-PCO-65-94(-95) to swap because annulus pressure drops below swapover setpoint.
G. If normally open damper (2)-PCO-65-93(-96) is closed and 1(2)-PCO-65-94(-95) is open while Annulus Vacuum is in service, failure of normal annulus pressure control may be indicated. Normal pressure control damper should be returned to service to provide normal and backup pressure control.
H. Anytime Containment or Shield Building integrity is required, Annulus Vacuum Fan A or B is required to be in service, maintaining equal to or more negative than 5 inches H
- 0 in annulus.
2 I. Both trains of EGTS Air Cleanup are required to be operable for operation of either unit in modes I through 4.
J. In the event of a Safety Injection on either unit, discharge flowpath of Annulus Vacuum Control Fans will isolate due to ABSCE damper closure. During any changes to Annulus or Aux Bldg ventilation, pressure setpoints may. be reached causing containment vacuum relief valve(s) to OPEN as designed.
K. An ABI or FHAI will isolate discharge flow path of Annulus Vacuum Control Fans for both units, without tripping fans.
L. A containment vent per 0-SO-30-8 may be required during EGTS operation or immediately prior to placing Annulus Vacuum Control Fans in service in order to prevent exceeding 0.3 psi containment differential pressure as specified in Tech Spec 3.6.1.4.
M. With one train (fan) of EGTS out of service (incapable of starting) prior to an accident, the decay cooling valves (0-FCV-65-28A,B and -47A,B) are no longer needed to perform their required function. The decay cooling valves for the filter train that is out of service are not required because the filter train is not running, and it is assumed that the filter train has not been exposed to radioactive material post-accident. Additionally, the operable filter train remains running and does not require decay cooling. Therefore, if one train of EGTS is tagged, both trains decay cooling valves may be tagged closed without affecting the operability of the remaining train.

QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DISTRACTOR ANALYSIS:
A. Incorrect, Plausible because only the A Train alarm will be lit since the B Train switch O-HS-90-136A2 is pushed in and the candidate may fail to recall that the SFP area monitors are required attendant equipment for ABG TS Operability for TS 3.9.12.
B. Correct. The A Train alarm will be lit since handswitch O-HS-90-136A1 is pulled out for the FT. The Train B alarm will not be lit since its associated HS is pushed in. O-RM-90-103 is Inoperable (initial condition) and O-RM-90-102 must be declared Inoperable due to its failure to source check; TS 3.3.3.1 must be entered as it requires one of the two monitors Operable. The SFP area monitors are required attendant equipment for ABGTS Operability for TS 3.9.12, therefore both Tech Specs must be entered.
C. Incorrect, Plausible because the B Train alarm would normally be lit with O-RM-90-103s auto function blocked by O-HS-90-136A2 when the monitor is Inoperable and the candidate may fall to recall that the SFP area monitor is required attendant equipment for ABGTS Operability for TS 3.9.12. Incorrect because O-HS-90-136A2 is pushed in so the B Train alarm would not be lit.
D. Incorrect, Plausible because the B Train alarm would normally be lit with O-RM-90-103s auto function blocked by O-HS-90-136A2 when the monitor is Inoperable and entry into both LCOs is correct. Incorrect because O-HS-90-136A2 is pushed in so the B Train alarm would not be lit.

3/4.6 CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.6.1 PRIMARY CONTAINMENT The safety design basis for primary containment is that the containment must withstand the pressures and temperatures of the limiting design basis accident (DBA) without exceeding the design leakage rates.
The DBAs that result in a challenge to containment OPERABILITY from high pressures and temperatures are a loss of coolant accident (LOCA), a steam line break, and a rod ejection accident (REA). In addition, release of significant fission product radioactivity within containment can occur from a LOCA or REA. In the DBA analyses, it is assumed that the containment is OPERABLE such that, for the DBAs involving release of fission product radioactivity, release to the environment is controlled by the rate of containment leakage. This leakage rate limitation will limit the site boundary radiation doses to within the limits of 10 CFR 100 during accident conditions. The containment was designed with an allowable leakage rate of 0.25 percent of containment air weight per day. This leakage rate, used in the evaluation of offsite doses resulting from accidents, is defined in the Containment Leakage Rate Test Program, as La: the maximum allowable containment leakage rate at the calculated peak containment internal pressure (Pa) resulting from the limiting DBA. The allowable leakage rate represented by La forms the basis for the acceptance criteria imposed on all containment leakage rate testing.
Primary containment INTEGRITY or operability is maintained by limiting leakage to within the acceptance criteria of the Containment Leakage Rate Test Program.

PLANT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.7.8 AUXILIARY BUILDING GAS TREATMENT SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the auxiliary building gas treatment system ensures that radioactive materials leaking from the ECCS equipment following a LOCA are filtered prior to reaching the environment. The operation of this system and the resultant effect on offsite dosage calculations was assumed in the accident analyses. ANSI N510-1 975 will be used as a procedural guide for surveillance testing.

QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DISTRACTOR ANAL YSIS:
A. Incorrect, plausible because the Interlock is Inoperable which requires assessing Operability of the turbine trip function and power ascension is not restricted.
B. Correct, Two channels of the P-9 Interlock are Inoperable and Action 8e requires that affected channels (2/3 low autostop oil pressure & 4/4 stop valves closed) for the turbine trip reactor trip function are verified Operable or apply their action. All autostop oil and stop valves are Operable so the turbine/trip reactor trip function is Operable. There is no restriction on increasing power.
C. Incorrect, plausthie because the Interlock is Inoperable which requires assessing Operability of the turbine trip function. If the candidate concludes the turbine trip function is Inoperable power is retricted to less than P-9 by Action 7.
D. Incorrect, plausible because the Interlock is Inoperable which requires assessing Operability of the turbine trip function. If the candidate concludes the turbine trip function is Operable he may conclude power is retricted to less than P-9 due to (noperability of the associated interlock.

QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DISTRA CTOR ANAL YSIS:
A. Correct, the alarm described is common to all four steam line rad monitors but the indication for loop #2 is a decade higher than the other three loops. E-3 step 4 will direct entry into ECA-3. Ibecause the ruptured S/G cant be isolated from at least one intact S/G due to the failure of all four MSIVs.
B. Incorrect, Plausible because the indication for ioop #2 steam line rad monitor is a decade higher than the other three loops and ECA-3. 2 is one of two procedures that deals with simultaneous occurance of a S/G tube rupture and a LOCA.
C. Incorrect, the alarm engraving may lead the candidtate to identify Loop #1 as the failed loop because it has the same identifier as the loop #1 rad monitor. Incorrect because loop #2 is a decade higher than the other three loops. ECA-3. 1 is the correct contingency instruction for the failed MSIVs.
D. Incorrect, the alarm engraving may lead the candidtate to identify Loop #1 as the failed ioop because it has the same identifier as the loop #1 rad monitor and ECA-3. 2 is one of two procedures that deals with simultaneous occurance of a S/G tube rupture and a LOCA. Incorrect because the rupture is on loop #2 and ECA-3. I is the correct contingency instruction for the failed MSIVs.

A. Section 2.8, Supply Header IA/2A Rupture in Yard Area; Stop and Lockout out all A Train ERCW pumps.
B. Section 2.8, Supply Header 1A/2A Rupture in Yard Area; Start additional ERCW pumps to maintain header pressure.
C. Section 2.10, Supply Header A Rupture Upstream of Strainer Inlet Valves OR Loss of Train B ERCW; Stop and Lockout out all A Train ERCW pumps.
D. Section 2.10, Supply Header A Rupture Upstream of Strainer Inlet Valves OR Loss of Train B ERCW; Start additional ERCW pumps to maintain header pressure.
Wednesday, July 07, 2010 11:31:05 AM 88
QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DISTRACTOR ANALYSIS:
A. Incorrect, Plausible because Section 2.8 would be the correct procedure section for a leak downstream of the strainer and the stopping and locking out of the pumps is correct for the leak identified in the stem. Conditions match entry for Section 2.8 except for sump pump running alarm and the Strainer Dp alarm being dark.
B. Incorrect, Plausible because Section 2.8 would be the correct procedure section for a leak downstream of the strainer and starting additional pumps is a mitigating action during performance of Section 2.8. Conditions match entry for Section 2.8 except for sump pump running alarm and the Strainer Dp alarm being dark.
C. Correct, All alarms stated would be lit for a header break upstream of the Train A Strainers. (Section 2.10) Header pressure sensors are located just upstream of the strainers. The sump pump running differentiates the leak upstream from a yard leak (I .e. downstream of the strainer). Mitigating action in AOP section 2.10 is to stop and lock out all A Train pumps.
D. Incorrect, Plausible because all alarms stated would be lit for a header break upstream of the Strainer making Section 2.10 the correct procedure section. While starting additional pumps might restore pressure, the mitigating action is to stop and lock out the A Train pumps to terminate the leakage.

Friday, July 16, 2010 10:23:55 AM 89
QUESTIONS REPORT for Friday DISTRA CTOR ANAL YSIS:
A. Correct. Bypassing the malfunctioning air dryer is the correct response for the conditions described and entering LCO Action 3.7. 1.2.a is correct because the A Train MD AFW pump is Inoerable due to the loss of the A Train Aux Air Header pressure.
B. Incorrect, Plausible because bypassing the malfunctioning air dryer is the correct response for the conditions described and the A Train Aux Air Header supplies air pressure to both the A MD AFW pump and the TDAFW pump. Incorrect because the TDAFW pump is not made Inoperable by the loss of air.
C. Incorrect, Plausible because manipulating O-FCV-32-82 is addressed in step 12 and opening the valve would allow control air to be supplied to the aux air system and 3.7. 1.2.a is the correct Tech Spec. Incorrect because the procedure ensures O-FCV-32-82 is closed if header pressure is less than 69 psig.
D. Incorrect, Plausible because manipulating O-FCV-32-82 is addressed in step 12 and the A Train Aux Air Header supplies air pressure to both the A MD AFW pump and the TDAFW pump. Incorrect because the procedure ensures O-FCV-32-82 is closed if header pressure is less than 69 psig and the TDAFW pump is not made Inoperable by the loss of air.

PLANT SYSTEMS BASES Q = Nominal NSSS power rating of the plant (including reactor coolant pump heat), Mwt K = Conversion factor, 947.82 (Btu/sec)
Mwt W = Minimum total steam flow rate capability of the operable MSSVs on any one steam generator at the highest MSSV opening pressure including tolerance and accumulation, as appropriate, in lb/sec. For example, if the maximum number of inoperable MSSVs on any one steam generator is one, then W should be a summation of the capacity of the operable MSSVs at the highest operable MSSV r.operating pressure, excluding the highest capacity MSSV. If the maximum number of inoperable MSSVs per steam generator is three then W should be a summation of the capacity of the operable MSSVs at the highest operable MSSV operating pressure, excluding the three highest capacity MSSVs.
hfg = heat of vaporization for steam at the highest MSSV opening pressure including tolerance and accumulation, as appropriate, Btu,lbm N = Number of loops in plant The values calculated from this algorithm must then be adjusted lower to account for instrument and channel uncertainties.
3/4.7.1.2 AUXILIARY FEEDWATER SYSTEM The AFW System is configured into three trains. The AFW System is considered OPERABLE when the components and flow paths required to provide redundant AFW flow to the steam generators are OPERABLE. This requires that the two motor-driven AFW pumps be OPERABLE in two diverse paths, each supplying AFW to separate steam generators. The turbine-driven AFW pump is required to be OPERABLE with redundant steam supplies from each of two main steam lines upstream of the MSIVs, and shall be capable of supplying AFW to any steam generator. The piping, valves, instrumentation, and controls in the required flow paths also are required to be OPERABLE.
The AFW System mitigates the consequences of any event with loss of normal feedwater.
The design basis of the AFW System is to supply 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 while pumping against the highest credible steam generator pressure.
In addition, the AFW System must supply enough makeup water to replace steam generator secondary inventory lost as the unit cools to MODE 4 conditions. Sufficient AFW flow must also be available to account for flow losses such as pump recirculation and line breaks.
August 14, 2001 SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 B 3/4 7-2 Amendment No. 115, 155, 196, 206
PLANT SYSTEMS BASES The limiting Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) and transients for the AFW System are as follows:
- a. Feedwater Line Break (FWLB); and
In addition, the minimum available AFW flow and system characteristics are credited for removing decay heat in the analysis of a small break loss of coolant accident (LOCA).
The AFW System design is such that it can perform its function following a FWLB between the MEW isolation valves and containment, combined with a loss of offsite power following turbine trip, and a single active failure of the steam turbine-driven AFW pump (above 50% power) or one motor-driven AFW pump (below 50% power with steam generator low level reactor trip time delay). For 50% power operation and higher, one motor-driven AFW pump is assumed to deliver to the broken MFW header at the pump run-out flow. Sufficient flow would be delivered to the intact steam generator by the redundant motor-driven AFW pump.
For partial power operation (below 50% power with trip time delay active), one motor-driven AFW pump is assumed to fail. All flow from the turbine-driven AFW pump and the redundant motor-driven AFW pump is assumed to deliver to the broken MEW header until the faulted steam generator is isolated. After isolation of the faulted steam generator, sufficient flow is delivered to the intact steam generator by the turbine-driven and redundant motor-driven AFW pump.
The Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) automatically actuates the AFW turbine-driven pump and associated valves and controls when required to ensure an adequate feedwater supply to the steam generators during loss of power.
The surveillance requirements (SRs) provide a means of ensuring the AFW system components are capable of supplying required flow to the steam generators, the flow path is aligned correctly, and the automatic functions actuate as designed. The automatic functions are verified through either an actual or simulated actuation signal. The actuation signal associated with SR 4.7.1.2.3 (automatic valve actuation) include the AFW actuation test signal and the low AFW pump suction pressure test signal. The actuation signal associated with SR 4.7.1.2.4 (automatic pump start) includes only the AFW actuation test signal.
Each motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pump (one Train A and one Train B) supplies flow paths to two steam generators. Each flow path contains an automatic air-operated level control valve (LCV). The LCVs have the same train designation as the associated pump and are provided trained air. The turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump supplies flow paths to all four steam generators. Each of these flow paths contains an automatic opening (non-modulating) air-operated LCV, two of November 17, 1995 SEQUOYAH UNIT 1 - B3/4 7-2a Amendment No. 115, 155, 196, 206
PLANT SYSTEMS BASES which are designated as Train A, receive A-train air, and provide flow to the same steam generators that are supplied by the B-train motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pump. The remaining two LCVs are designated as Train B, receive B-train air, and provide flow to the same steam generators that are supplied by the A-train motor-driven pump. This design provides the required redundancy to ensure that at least two steam generators receive the necessary flow assuming any single failure. It can be seen from the description provided above that the loss of a single train of air (A or B) will not prevent the auxiliary feedwater system from performing its intended safety function and is no more severe than the loss of a single auxiliary feedwater pump. Therefore, the loss of a single train of auxiliary air only affects the capability of a single motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pump because the turbine-driven pump is still capable of providing flow to two steam generators that are separate from the other motor-driven pump.
Two redundant steam sources are required to be operable to ensure that at least one source is available for the steam-driven auxiliary feedwater (AFW) pump operation following a feedwater or main steam line break. This requirement ensures that the plant remains within its design basis (i.e., AFW to two intact steam generators) given the event of a loss of the No. 1 steam generator because of a main steam line or feedwater line break and a single failure of the B-train motor driven AFW pump. The two redundant sources must be aligned such that No. I steam generator source is open and operable and the No. 4 steam generator source is closed and operable.
For instances where one train of emergency raw cooling water (ERCW) is declared inoperable in accordance with technical specifications, the AFW turbine-driven pump is considered operable since it is supplied by both trains of ERCW. Similarly, the AFW turbine-driven pump is considered operable when one train of the AFW loss of power start function is declared inoperable in accordance with Technical Specifications because both 6.9 kilovolt shutdown board logic trains supply this function. This position is consistent with American National Standards Institute/ANS 58.9 requirements (i.e., postulation of the failure of the opposite train is not required while relying on the TS limiting condition for operation).
Action e prohibits the application of LCD 3.0.4.b to an inoperable AFW train. There is an increased risk associated with entering a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability with an AFW train inoperable and the provisions of LCD 3.0.4.b, which allow entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability with the LCD not met after performance of a risk assessment addressing inoperable systems and components, should not be applied in this circumstance.

Proposed Question: SRO 97 1 Pt Given the following:
The VI system on Unit I has become heavily contaminated with oil due to a maintenance problem
- The VI Air Dryer packages rapidly clog VVhich ONE (1) of the following describes the impact on VI system operation AND the actions directed by AP-22 (Loss if VI) to mitigate the consequences of the malfunction?
VI header pressure will decrease until...
A. 1 Vl-1 812 (VI Air Dryer Bypass Filter Isol) automatically opens at 85 PSIG. If the valve fails to open, Enclosure 5 (VI Dryer and VI to VS System Isolation) directs the operators to bypass the air dryers locally at 82 PSIG.
B. 1VI-1812 (VI Air Dryer Bypass Filter Isol) automatically opens at 90 PSIG. If the valve fails to open, Enclosure 5 (VI Dryer and VI to VS System Isolation) directs the operators to bypass the air dryers locally at 85 PSIG.
C. lVl-820 (VI to VS Supply) automatically closes at 85 PSIG. As a backup to Thie automatic action, AP-22 directs the operators to manually close 1VI-820 at 82 PSIG.
D. 1VI-820 (VIto VS Supply) automatically closes at 90 PSIG. As a Page 307 of 320 Rev Final
ES-401 Sample Written Examination Form ES-401-5 Question Worksheet backup to the automatic action, AP-22 directs the operators to manually close lVl-820 at 85 PSIG.
Proposed Answer: A Exp)anaton (Optional):
With the air dryers clogged, reducing the air load on the system by Vl-820 closing will reduce the rate of the VI header pressure decrease. However, since Vl-820 is downstream of the air dryers the only automatic action which may be successful in restoring VI header pressure is bypassing the air dryers. With the manual bypass flowpath isolated (1VI-93 closed), the automatic bypass must open to restore header pressure.
lVl-1812 automatically opens when VI header pressure decreases to 85 psig. AP 22 directs the Operators to bypass the air dryers locally using Enclosure 5 if VI header pressure decreases to less than 82 psig. Enclosure 5 has the Operator check that I VI-i 812 is open and has the operator open the manual bypasses (should normally be open) 1\fl-93 and 1VI-94 (in series).
A. (;orrect.
B. orrict: See explanation above. IVI-1812 automatically opens at 85 psig 2 rd the procedure actions are directed when VI header pressure decreases to 82 psig. Plausible because there are automatic actions which occur when V header pressure decreases to 90 psig (1VI-820 closes) and IVI-1 812 aLtomaticaiy opens at 85 psig.
C. Icorrect: See explanation above. Plausible because 1VI-820 will slow the o pressure decrease and there are automatic actions which occur at 85 ps (iVL8i2 opens).
D. hcorrect: See explanation above.lVl-820 closing will not restore VI header p sssu;e. Plausible because lVl-820 will slow the rate of pressure rcase and 1VI-820 does automatically close when VI header pressure cacreases to 90 psig.

- 6. If any ORANGE challenge is encountered, the person monitoring status trees continues monitoring until all six status trees have been evaluated.
This is necessary because a subsequent RED challenge has priority over any ORANGE challenge. If any RED is encountered, then Rule 3.1O.5.D.4 applies. Otherwise, once it is determined that no RED challenges exist, then the person monitoring status trees informs the procedure reader of the highest priority ORANGE challenge.
- 7. RED or ORANGE challenges must be addressed immediately by implementing appropriate FRPs in order of priority and per the rules of usage. When the person monitoring status trees informs the procedure reader that a RED or ORANGE challenge exists, the procedure reader immediately suspends the ORP (or lower priority FRP) in progress and implements the appropriate FRP, as indicated at the terminus point of the CSF under challenge.
- 8. YELLOW challenges may be addressed by implementing appropriate FRPs if desired, but do not require immediate operator action.
Addressing YELLOW challenges is optional since these are usually temporary, off-normal conditions that will be restored to normal status by actions already in progress. In other cases, the YELLOW path might provide an early indication of a developing RED or ORANGE condition.
Following FRP implementation, a YELLOW might indicate a residual off-normal condition. When the person monitoring status trees informs the procedure reader that a YELLOW challenge exists, the procedure reader should evaluate if the YELLOW challenge FRP should be implemented.
This decision will be based on the following:
- Whether the procedures in effect will address the challenge as a matter of course.
- Whether the procedures in effect are more important at that time based upon available time and current plant conditions.
- Whether the challenge is of a nature that it will likely develop into an ORANGE or RED condition if action is not taken early.

QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta
- 91. Given the following:
- Unit I tripped from 100% due to a small break LOCA.
- While implementing E-1, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, the following data is reported by the crew:
- RCS pressure 1200 psig slowly lowering.
- CETCs are 500°F and slowly lowering.
- CNMT pressure 2.0 psig.
- CNMT temperature 215°F.
- CNMT hydrogen concentration has just been confirmed at 4.2%.
- The crew is implementing EA-268-1, Placing Hydrogen Recombiners In Service.
Which ONE of the following identifies:
(1) the parameter used, in accordance with EA-268-1, to adjust the hydrogen recombiner power setting?
and (2) the REP classification that would be required for the conditions described?

QUESTIONS REPORT for 2010 SEPT SRO EXAM Pre-Atanta DISTRACTOR ANALYSIS:
A. Incorrect, Plausible if the candidate confuses CNMT humidity vs pressure for determining the correction factor to adjust the heater controls. Also a Site Area Emergency is correct due to potential loss of 2 barriers.
B. Incorrect, Plausible if the candidate confuses CNMT humidity vs pressure for determining the correction factor to adjust the heater controls. Alert would be correct if candidate only recognizes the RCS barrier potential loss.
C. Incorrect, Plausible since the use of containment pressure is the parameter utilized to modify the reference power setting and Alert would be the correct classification if candidate only recognizes the RCS barrier potential loss. Incorrect because SAE is the correct classification due to potential loss of containment and the RCS.
D. Correct, As per guidance in EA-268-1 the correct power setting is calculated by multiplying the CNMT pressure factor by the Reference Factor to obtain the correct power setting. EPIP-1 requires that a Site Area Emergency be declared for a Loss or Potential loss of any two barriers (RCS potential loss due to entering E- 1 and CNMT potential loss due to hydrogen > 4%.)

Ai all times.
Operability of shield building noble gas vent rate activity monitor (Eff) requires primary sample pumps, vent flow rate and Low Rng radiation inputs since the high radiation alarm is only on the effluent channel (iiCils). When the vent flow rate monitor is inoperable only the Low Rng radiation monitor is still capable of providing noble gas indication.
Its associated malfunction alarm on M-30 will alert Operations to any secondary failures such as loss of sample flow or detector failure. Therefore as long as the Low Rng is selected and the malfunction alarm is monitored RE-90-400 can be used to meet ODCM Noble gas and Particulate/Iodine sampler requirements. Mid or High range channels do not have any ODCM requirements. The vent flow rate monitor can be OPERABLE without the noble gas vent rate activity monitor.
During exhaust system operation.
1 ,2-F-2-256 is the low range flow element (0-100 cfm). 1,2 -F-2-257 is a mid (0-1000) cfm flow element which should only be used for abnormal conditions.

B 3/4.7 PLANT SYSTEMS B 3/4.7.7 CONTROL ROOM EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM BASES BACKGROUND The CREVS provides a protected environment from which occupants can control the unit following an uncontrolled release of radioactivity, hazardous chemicals, or smoke.
The CREVS consists of two independent, redundant trains that recirculate and filter the air in the control room envelope (CRE) and a CRE boundary that limits the inleakage of unfiltered air. Each CREVS train consists of 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, doors, barriers, and instrumentation also form part of the system.
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 accident conditions. This area encompasses the control room, and may encompass other non critical areas to which frequent personnel access or continuous occupancy is not necessary in the event of an accident. The CRE is protected during normal operation, natural events, and accident conditions. The ORE boundary is the combination of walls, floor, roof, ducting, doors, penetrations and equipment that physically form the ORE. The OPERABILITY of the ORE boundary must be maintained to ensure that the inleakage of unfiltered air into the ORE will not exceed the inleakage assumed in the licensing basis analysis of design basis accident (DBA) consequences to ORE occupants.
The ORE and its boundary are defined in the Control Room Envelope Habitability Program.
The CREVS is an emergency system, parts of which may also operate during normal unit operations in the standby mode of operation. Actuation of the CREVS places the system in the emergency radiation state mode of operation. Actuation of the system to the emergency radiation state of the emergency mode of operation, closes the unfiltered outside air intake and unfiltered exhaust dampers, and aligns the system for recirculation of the air October 28, 2008 SEQUOYAH UNIT I

CREVS B 3/4.7.7 PLANT SYSTEMS BASES BACKGROUND (continued) within the CRE through the redundant trains of HEPA and the charcoal filters. The emergency radiation state also initiates pressurization and filtered ventilation of the air supply to the CRE.
Outside air is filtered and added to the air being recirculated from the CRE. Pressurization of the CRE minimizes infiltration of unfiltered air through the CRE boundary from all the surrounding areas adjacent to the CRE boundary. The air entering the CRE is continuously monitored by radiation detectors. One detector output above the setpoint will cause actuation of the emergency radiation state.
A single CREVS train operating at a flow rate of 4000 cfm plus or minus 10 percent will pressurize the main control room to 0.125 inch water gauge relative to outside atmosphere. The CRE will be maintained at a slightly positive pressure relative to external areas adjacent to the CRE boundary. The CREVS operation in maintaining the CRE habitable is discussed in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), Sections 6.4 and 9.4 (Ref. I and 2).
Redundant supply and recirculation trains provide the required filtration should an excessive pressure drop develop across the other filter train. Normally open isolation dampers are arranged in series pairs so that the failure of one damper to shut will not result in a breach of isolation. The CREVS is designed in accordance with Seismic Category I requirements.
The CREVS is designed to maintain a habitable environment in the CRE for 30 days of continuous occupancy after a DBA without exceeding a 5 rem whole body dose or its equivalent to any part of the body.
APPLICABLE The CREVS components are arranged in redundant, safety related SAFETY ventilation trains. The location of components and ducting within ANALYSES the CRE ensures an adequate supply of filtered air to all areas requiring access. The CREVS provides airborne radiological October 28, 2008 SEQUOYAH UNIT 1
- B 3/4 7-4e Amendment No. 321
CREVS B 3/4.7.7 PLANT SYSTEMS BASES LCO (continued)
In order for the CREVS trains to be considered OPERABLE, the CRE boundary must be maintained such that the CRE occupant dose from a large radioactive release does not exceed the calculated dose in the licensing basis consequence analyses for DBAs.
The LCO is modified by a Note allowing the CRE boundary to be opened intermittently under administrative controls. 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 the operators in the ORE. This individual will have a method to rapidly close the opening and to restore the ORE boundary to a condition equivalent to the design condition when a need for CRE isolation is indicated.
APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, and during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies, the CREVS must be OPERABLE to ensure that the CRE will remain habitable during and following a DBA.
During movement of irradiated fuel assemblies, the CREVS must be OPERABLE to cope with the release from a fuel handling accident.
ACTIONS a. (MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4)
When one CREVS train is inoperable, for reasons other than an inoperable CRE boundary, action must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 7 days. In this condition, the remaining OPERABLE OREVS train is adequate to perform the ORE occupant protection function. However, the overall reliability is reduced because a failure in the OPERABLE CREVS train could result in loss of CREVS function. 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.

Outage Schedule Logic Change Control Subsequent to the Independent Outage Safety Review (IOSR) or issuance of Rev. C if an IOSR was not performed, all significant outage schedule changes which involve the modification of logic relation between outage activities will be controlled by the following process.
A. The proposed schedule change is documented on the Outage Schedule Logic Change Form (OSLCF) SPP-7.2-2, Attachment 1 of this procedure.
An OSLCF is initiated by the responsible individual each time a logic change to the outage schedule is required. The initiator must complete items A through D of the OSLCF.
B. A licensed SRO reviews the requested logic change documented on the OSLCF and evaluates whether the change to the outage schedule should be approved and proceed. This review by a SRO is to ensure safety significant changes receive a review consistent with the initial independent outage safety review of the outage schedule. The SRO should consider the criteria below when determining if the change should be approved: If the answer to any of these questions is yes, the reviewer should ensure appropriate actions are taken to minimize the safety risk resulting from incorporating the logic change prior to approval. If the logic change requires a major system window change, or could present a challenge to the defense in depth strategy with safety significance, the Unit Outage Manager will be consulted to convene an Independent Outage Safety Review team to provide additional expert opinions on whether the change should be approved. The plant manager, or designee, will approve a schedule change, deemed safety significant via the following questions.
SRO review questions for consideration:
- 1. Perturb the stability of RHR parameters (flow, pressure, temperature, etc.) and other operational parameters (operating pump amperes, etc.)?
- 2. Alter plant configurations that would result in RCS temperature below the minimum value used to analyze reactor shutdown margin?
- 3. Reduce the reactor cavity or reactor vessel inventory?
- 4. Reduce the spent fuel pit inventory or challenge SF Cooling redundancy?
- 5. Reduce the availability of systems or support systems required to provide reactor vessel makeup water consistent with the decay heat generation load?
- 6. Minimize the availability of low pressure injection?
- 7. Reduce the availability of alternate sources of reactor vessel makeup water consistent with the decay heat generation rate?
- 8. Increase the probability of jeopardizing installed temporary equipment that could reduce safety system availability?
- 9. Isolate of the operable boration flow path?

Outage Schedule Logic Change Control
- 10. Cause leakage of water into the RCS or spentfuel pit which would dilute the boron concentration to a value below the minimum required?
- 11. Affect bus outages or switchyard outages?
- 12. Reduce the availability of onsite or offsite electrical power supplies or support systems?
- 13. Increase the probability of fuel or other core component mishandling or damage?
- 14. Reduce the ability to isolate containment when required?
- 15. Affect the non-outage unit?
After reviewing the above questions, the SRO signs the OSLCF for approval if warranted. If the SRO rejects the change, the OSLCF is returned to the originator with an explanation of why it was rejected for enhancement or cancellation as appropriate.
C. Following SRO approval of an OSLCF, the Outage Manager reviews the OSLCF for completeness and determines if additional reviews are required. This determination is based on the following criteria:
- 1. Logic changes for work activities within a system window which change the sequence of scheduled work and do not pose a potential challenge to the defense in depth strategy can be approved by the Outage Manager.
- 2. Logic changes which move a work activity scheduled in Modes 5 or 6 (PWR only) to the empty reactor vessel period can be approved by the Outage Manager.
- 3. Logic changes for work activities on the equipment and systems affecting system operations require review and concurrence by the Operations Management representative in the 0CC, in addition to the original SROs approval. As an example: jE the logic change moves the activity out of its scheduled work window OR has the potential to challenge the stations defense in depth strategy, Operations management concurrence in 0CC is required, as well as Outage Manager and Plant Manager, or outage shift designees.
- 4. Logic changes for work activities on equipment and systems not identified above can be approved by the Outage Manager.
D. Following approval of the OSLCF, the Outage Manager directs changing the outage schedule in accordance with the OSLCF. Approved OSLCFs are retained by the Outage Manager. OSLCFs that are not approved are returned to the originator for cancellation or further processing.
E. Copies of approved OSLCFs should be distributed to the Outage Manager and to other outage participants that will be affected by the change as deemed necessary.

- 1. Logic changes for work activities within a system window which change the sequence of scheduled work and do not pose a potential challenge to the defense in depth strategy can be approved by the Outage Manager.
- 2. Logic changes which move a work activity scheduled in Modes 5 or 6 (PWR only) to the empty reactor vessel period can be approved by the Outage Manager.
- 3. Logic changes for work activities on the equipment and systems affecting system operations require review and concurrence by the Operations Management representative in the 0CC, in addition to the original SROs approval. As an example: E the logic change moYes the activity out of its scheduled work window OR has the potential to challenge the stations defense in depth strategy, Operations management concurrence in CCC is required, as well as Outage Manager and Plant Manager, or outage shift designees.
- 4. Logic changes for work activities on equipment and systems not identified above can be approved by the Outage Manager.
D. Following approval of the OSLCF, the Outage Manager directs changing the outage schedule in accordance with the OSLCF. Approved OSLCFs are retained by the Outage Manager. OSLCFs that are not approved are returned to the originator for cancellation or further processing.
E. Copies of approved OSLCFs should be distributed to the Outage Manager and to other outage participants that will be affected by the change as deemed necessary.

ECCS - Operating B 3/4.5.2 BASES APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES (continued)
Each ECCS subsystem is taken credit for in a large break LOCA event at full power (Refs. 3 and 4). This event establishes the requirement for runout flow for the ECCS pumps, as well as the maximum response time for their actuation. The centrifugal charging pumps and SI pumps are credited in a small break LOCA event. This event establishes the flow and discharge head at the design point for the centrifugal charging pumps. The SGTR and MSLB events also credit the centrifugal charging pumps. The OPERABILITY requirements for the ECCS are based on the following LOCA analysis assumptions:
- a. A large break LOCA event, with loss of offsite power and a single failure disabling one ECCS train, and
- b. A small break LOCA event, with a loss of offsite power and a single failure disabling one ECCS train.
During the blowdown stage of a LOCA, the RCS depressurizes as primary coolant is ejected through the break into the containment. The nuclear reaction is terminated either by moderator voiding during large breaks or control rod insertion for small breaks. Following depressurization, emergency cooling water is injected into the cold legs, flows into the downcomer, fills the lower plenum, and refloods the core.
The effects on containment mass and energy releases are accounted for in appropriate analyses (Refs. 3 and 4). The LCO ensures that an ECCS train will deliver sufficient water to match boil off rates soon enough to minimize the consequences of the core being uncovered following a large LOCA. It also ensures that the centrifugal charging and SI pumps will deliver sufficient water and boron during a small LOCA to maintain core subcriticality. For smaller LOCAs, the centrifugal charging pump delivers sufficient fluid to maintain RCS inventory. For a small break LOCA, the steam generators continue to serve as the heat sink, providing part of the required core cooling.
The ECCS trains satisfy Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).
LCO In MODES 1, 2, and 3, two independent (and redundant) ECCS trains are required to ensure that sufficient ECCS flow is available, assuming a single failure affecting either train. Additionally, individual components within the ECCS trains may be called upon to mitigate the consequences of other transients and accidents.

ECCS Operating B 3/4.5.2 B 3/4.5 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEM (ECCS)
B 3/4.5.2 ECCS Operating BASES BACKGROUND The function of the ECCS is to provide core cooling and negative reactivity to ensure that the reactor core is protected after any of the following accidents:
- a. Loss of coolant accident (LOCA), coolant leakage greater than the capability of the normal charging system,
- b. Rod ejection accident,
- c. Loss of secondary coolant event, including uncontrolled steam release or loss of feedwater, and
- d. Steam generator tube rupture (SGTR).
The addition of negative reactivity is designed primarily for the loss of secondary coolant accident where primary cooldown could add enough positive reactivity to achieve criticality and return to significant power.
There are three phases of ECCS operation: injection, cold leg recirculation, and hot leg recirculation. In the injection phase, water is taken from the refueling water storage tank (RWST) and injected into the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) through the cold legs. When sufficient water is removed from the RWST to ensure that enough boron has been added to maintain the reactor subcritical and the containment sumps have enough water to supply the required net positive suction head to the ECCS pumps, suction is switched to the containment sump for cold leg recirculation. After approximately 5.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />, the ECCS flow is shifted to the hot leg recirculation phase to provide a backflush, which would reduce the boiling in the top of the core and any resulting boron precipitation.
The ECCS consists of separate subsystems: centrifugal charging (high head), safety injection (SI) (intermediate head), and residual heat removal (RHR) (low head). Each subsystem consists of two redundant, 100 percent capacity trains. The ECCS accumulators and the RWST are also part of the ECCS, but are not considered part of an ECCS flow path as described by this limiting condition for operation (LCO).

ECCS - Operating B 3/4.5.2 BASES BACKGROUND (continued)
The ECCS flow paths consist of piping, valves, heat exchangers, and pumps such that water from the RWST can be injected into the RCS following the accidents described in this LCO. The major components of each subsystem are the centrifugal charging pumps, the RHR pumps, heat exchangers, and the SI pumps.
Each of the three subsystems consists of two 100 percent capacity trains that are interconnected and redundant such that either train is capable of supplying 100 percent of the flow required to mitigate the accident consequences. This interconnecting and redundant subsystem design provides the operators with the ability to utilize components from opposite trains to achieve the required 100 percent flow to the core.
During the injection phase of LOCA recovery, a suction header supplies water from the RWST to the ECCS pumps. Separate piping supplies each subsystem and each train within the subsystem. The discharge from the centrifugal charging pumps combines prior to entering the boron injection tank (BIT) and then divides again into four supply lines, each of which feeds the injection line to one RCS cold leg. The discharge from the SI and RHR pumps divides and feeds an injection line to each of the RCS cold legs. Control valves are set to balance the flow to the RCS. This balance ensures sufficient flow to the core to meet the analysis assumptions following a LOCA in one of the RCS cold legs.
For LOCAs that are too small to depressurize the RCS below the shutoff head of the SI pumps, the centrifugal charging pumps supply water until the RCS pressure decreases below the SI pump shutoff head. During this period, the steam generators are used to provide part of the core cooling function.
During the recirculation phase of LOCA recovery, RHR pump suction is transferred to the containment sump. The RHR pumps then supply the other ECCS pumps.
Initially, recirculation is through the same paths as the injection phase.
Subsequently, recirculation alternates injection between the hot and cold legs.
The centrifugal charging subsystem of the ECCS also functions to supply borated water to the reactor core following increased heat removal events, such as a main steam line break (MSLB). The limiting design conditions occur when the negative moderator temperature coefficient is highly negative, such as at the end of each cycle.
