SRVs and SVs B 3.4.3 BASES (continued)
SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.3.1 REQUIREMENTS This Surveillance requires that the SRVs and SVs will open at the pressures assumed in the safety analysis of Reference 1. The demonstration of the SRV and SV lift settings must be performed during shutdown, since this is a bench test, to be done in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program. The lift setting pressure shall correspond to ambient conditions of the valves at nominal operating temperatures and pressures. The SRV and SV setpoints are +/- 3% for OPERABILITY; however the valves are reset to +/- 1 % during the Surveillance to allow for drift.
The Surveillance Frequency is in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program requirements contained in the ASME Code, Section Xl. This Surveillance must be performed during shutdown conditions.
SR 3.4.3.2 The actuator of each dual function safety/relief valves (S/RVs) is stroked to verify that the pilot valve strokes when manually actuated. The actuator test is performed by energizing a solenoid that pneumatically actuates a plunger. The plunger is connected to the second stage disc located within the main valve body.
When steam pressure actuates the plunger during plant operation, this allows pressure to be vented from the top of the main valve piston, allowing reactor pressure to lift the main valve piston, which opens the main valve disc. The test will verify movement of the plunger in accordance with vendor recommendations.
However, since this test is performed prior to establishing the reactor pressure needed to overcome main valve closure forces, the main valve disc will not stroke during the test.
This SR, together with the valve testing performed as required by the ASME Code for pressure relieving devices (ASME OM Code -
2001 through 2003 Addenda), verify the capability of each relief valve to perform its function.
Valve testing will be performed at a steam test facility, where the valve (i.e., main valve and pilot valve) and an actuator representative of the actuator used at the plant will be installed on a steam header in the same orientation as the plant installation.
The test conditions in the test facility will be similar to those in the plant installation, including ambient temperature, valve insulation, and steam conditions. The valve will then be leak tested, functionally tested to ensure the valve is capable of opening and (continued)

SRVs and SVs B 3.4.3 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.3.2 (continued)
REQUIREMENTS closing (including stroke time), and leak tested a final time. Valve seat tightness will be verified by a cold bar test, and if not free of fog, leakage will be measured and verified to be below design limits. In addition, for the safety mode of S/RVs, an as-found setpoint verification and as-found leak check are performed, followed by verification of set pressure, and delay time. The valve will then be shipped to the plant without any disassembly or alteration of the main valve or pilot valve components.
The combination of the valve testing and the valve actuator testing provide a complete check of the capability of the valves to open and close, such that full functionality is demonstrated through overlapping tests, without cycling the valves.
If a valve fails to actuate due only to the failure of the solenoid but is capable of opening on overpressure, the safety function of the SRV is not considered inoperable.
This SR is not applicable to the SVs, due to their design which does not include the manual relief capability, nor do they have a discharge line that can become blocked.
The Frequency of this SR is in accordance with the Inservice Testing Program.

Operating B 3.5.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.5.1.7 (continued)
REQUIREMENTS This is necessary because testing the entire LPCI Loop Select Logic would interfere with forced reactor coolant circulation and/or decay heat removal functions and require multiple LPCI System starts to demonstrate all the Loop Select Logic features (e.g.,
injections paths, single loop operation and "swing" bus).
Therefore, each of the required features can be tested either individually or in appropriate combinations (including overlap with other LCO 3.5.1 surveillances, the Instrumentation surveillances required by LCO 3.3.5.1 and the "swing" bus breaker coordination surveillance in LCO 3.8.7), such that the overall function is tested on the required Frequency.
SR 3.5.1.8 The ADS designated SRVs are required to actuate automatically upon receipt of specific initiation signals. A system functional test is performed to demonstrate that the mechanical portions of the ADS function (i.e., solenoids) operate as designed when initiated either by an actual or simulated initiation signal, causing proper actuation of all the required components. SR 3.5.1.9 and the LOGIC SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL TEST performed in LCO 3.3.5.1 overlap this Surveillance to provide complete testing of the assumed safety function.
The Surveillance Frequency is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program. The Frequency is based on the need to perform the Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power.
Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass the SR when performed at this Frequency, which is based on the refueling cycle. Therefore, the Frequency was concluded to be acceptable from a reliability standpoint.
This SR is modified by a Note that excludes valve actuation, since the valves are individually tested in accordance with SR 3.5.1.9.
This prevents an RPV pressure blowdown.
SR 3.5.1.9 The actuator of each ADS dual function safety/relief valves (S/RVs) is stroked to verify that the pilot valve strokes when manually actuated. For the S/RVs, the actuator test is performed by energizing a solenoid that pneumatically actuates a plunger.

If both LLS valves are inoperable or if the inoperable LLS valve cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the required Completion Time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply.
