FINAL
T2 G2 028 A2.02 TS Amendment 157: The revised 10 CFR 50.44 no longer defines a design-basis LOCA hydrogen release, and eliminates the requirements for hydrogen control systems to mitigate such a release. The installation of hydrogen recombiners and or vent and purge systems required by 10 CFR 50.44(b)(3) was intended to address the limited quantity and rate of hydrogen generation that was postulated from a design-basis LOCA. The Commission has found that this hydrogen release is not risk-significant because the design-basis LOCA hydrogen release does not contribute to the conditional probability of a large release up to approximately 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after the onset of core damage. In addition, these systems were ineffective at mitigating hydrogen releases from risk-significant beyond design-basis accidents. Therefore, the Commission eliminated the hydrogen release associated with a design-basis LOCA from 10 CFR 50.44 and the associated requirements that necessitated the need for the hydrogen recombiners and the backup hydrogen vent and purge systems. As a result, the NRC staff finds that the requirements related to hydrogen recombiners no longer meet any of the four criteria in 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) for retention in the TSs and the existing TS requirements may, therefore be eliminated for all plants.
Hence at Wolf Creek: all references to the hydrogen recombiners have been eliminated from the EMGs. There is no need to test them and the SYS was voided, too.
Bottom line: Replaced 028 A2.02 with 056 A2.04 T2 G1 003 2.1.31 Unable to write an SRO-level question. Selected another (SRO) system - kept the K/A Bottom line: Replaced 003 2.1.31 with 004 2.1.31 T3 (SRO) C of O; 2.1.15 2.1.15 has no 55.43 connection - See NOTE 9 of ES-401-1.

SCENARIO
SUMMARY
Turnover and Initial Conditions: Unit is at 100% power, Middle of Life. Motor Driven AFW pump A is tagged out for maintenance activities. Technical Specification (TS) 3.7.5 Condition B.1 (restore AFW train to OPERABLE in 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />) was entered. Expected return is 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />.
Event 1: Reactor Coolant System (RCS) temperature T-cold instrument BB TI-421 fails high. Control rods step inward. The crew identifies and diagnoses the temperature instrument failure and enters OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS. Attachment L, Narrow Range RTD Malfunction, is used to identify and mitigate the instrument failure. Memory Action steps are performed by the BOP (verify no load rejection in progress) and ATC (take rods to manual using SE HS-9). Technical Specifications are identified by the SRO. TS 3.3.1, REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION, Table 3.3.1-1, Fu 6 and 7 are identified and Conditions A and E are entered.
Event 2: Steam pressure channel for Steam Generator A, AB PI-514A, fails low. The crew identifies and diagnoses the steam pressure channel failure and enters Alarm Response procedure ALR 00-108B, SG A LEV DEV or ALR 00-108C, SG A FLOW MISMATCH and/or OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS. OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS, Attachment C, Steam Pressure Channel Malfunction, is used to identify and mitigate the instrument failure. Memory action steps are performed by the BOP (A Main Feed Regulating Valve placed in manual and Steam Generator level controlled manually). Technical Specifications are identified by the SRO. TS 3.3.2, ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES ACTUATION INSTRUMENTATION, Table 3.3.2-1, Fu 1.e and 4.e are identified and Conditions A and D are entered.
Event 3: Pressurizer (PZR) pressure instrument, BB PI-456, fails low. The crew identifies and diagnoses PZR pressure instrument failure and enters OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS. Attachment K, PZR Pressure Malfunction, is used to identify and mitigate the instrument failure. Technical Specifications are identified by the SRO. TS 3.3.1, REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION, Table 3.3.1-1, Fu 6 and 8 are identified and Conditions A, E and M are entered. TS 3.3.2, ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES ACTUATION INSTRUMENTATION, Table 3.3.2-1, Fu 1.d, 3.a.3, 5.d, 6.e and 8.b are identified and Conditions A, D and L are entered.
Event 4: Steam Generator D Main Feed Regulating Valve (MFRV) closes in automatic. The crew identifies and diagnoses the MFRV failure and enters Alarm Response procedure ALR 00-111C, SG D FLOW MISMATCH or ALR 00-111B, SG D LEV DEV, to mitigate the MFRV failure.
Event 5: The Major event is accompanied by a seismic alarm. An Inadvertent Reactor trip and Safety Injection Signal occurs followed by a Loss of all Auxiliary Feedwater. The crew diagnoses the seismic event and Reactor Trip and Safety Injection actuation. The crew enters EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION.
During the performance of EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, the crew diagnoses the Loss of all Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW). At step 8 RNO, the crew ensures the BIT valves are open and transitions to Functional Recovery procedure EMG FR-H1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK.
Success path for the scenario is accomplished at step 8 of EMG FR-H1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK, when AFW flow from the Non-Safety Related Auxiliary Feedwater Pump is established to the Steam Generators. SYS AP-122, NON-SAFETY AUX FEED PUMP OPERATION, is performed.
Critical Task (CT) Establish feedwater flow into at least one SG before RCS bleed and feed is initiated and before SGs dry out.

Event 6: Post trip, the BOP determines the Main Turbine failed to trip. The BOP depresses both MAIN TURBINE MASTER TRIP A and B pushbuttons (AC HS-002A and AC HS-002B) during the performance of Immediate Actions step 2 RNO of EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION.
Critical Task - Manual Main Turbine trip is performed.
Event 7: Post trip, the ATC/BOP determines that Containment Fan Coolers A and C are not running in SLOW speed. EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, Attachment F, step F8 RNO directs starting the fans in SLOW speed.
SCENARIO TERMINATION:
Successful mitigation of the scenario requires the crew restore secondary heat sink by performance of EMG FR-H1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK, using the Non-Safety Related Auxiliary Feedwater Pump per procedure SYS AP-122, NON-SAFETY AUX FEED PUMP OPERATION.
CRITICAL TASKS (CT)
Event 5: Establish feedwater flow into at least one SG before RCS bleed and feed is initiated and before SGs dry out (RCS bleed and feed is initiated when 3 of 4 SGs indicate 12% wide range level. SG dryout is indicated by at least 3 SGs with wide range level less than 9%). Restore AFW to the Steam Generators using Non-Safety Related Aux Feed (NSAFW) Pump per procedure SYS AP-122, NON-SAFETY AUX FEED PUMP OPERATION, entered from EMG FR-H1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK.
Event 6: Manual Main Turbine trip is performed. Manual Main Turbine trip before IR SUR becomes positive and before any RCS cold leg temperature decreases by more than 100°F in a 1-hour period and reaches the T1 limit (240°F) and prior to transition out of EMG E-0.

TS 3.3.2, ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES INSTRUMENTATION, Condition A (Immediately entered due to failure) and from Table 3.3.2-1, Fu 1.e and 4.e, Condition D (72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to trip bistables respectively) are identified.
Event 5: Reactivity event: The Shift Manager (cue) informs the Control Room Supervisor that Motor Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump B has been declared INOPERABLE but AVAILABLE. The SRO determines per Technical Specification 3.7.5, Condition C, (Two AFW trains inoperable), Action C.1 (Be in MODE 3 within six hours), that a downpower must be initiated. If the pre-shift brief for a 10% downpower is not begun, the Shift Manager cues that the crew downpower using OFN MA-038, RAPID PLANT SHUTDOWN.
Event 6: Major event: 600 gpm Cold Leg break, Loop C - Loss Of Coolant Accident (LOCA). Once the downpower is initiated, a 600 gpm LOCA occurs. The crew diagnoses the LOCA per OFN BB-007, RCS LEAKAGE HIGH, and determines that a Reactor Trip and Safety Injection must be actuated. The crew enters EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION. The crew will transition to EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT and then based on plant conditions, transition to EMG ES-11, POST LOCA COOLDOWN AND DEPRESSURIZATION or EMG ES-03, SI TERMINATION.

Event 7: Preloaded and post trip: Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump (TDAFP) autostart failure, manual start available. MDAFW B AFW discharge to Steam Generators A and D are throttled. The BOP diagnoses the TDAFW pump did not autostart and that MDAFW B discharge to Steam Generators A and D is low. AFW total flow must be greater than 270,000 lbm/hr until narrow range level in at least one Steam Generator is greater than 6%. TDAFW pump must be started manually from the Control Room.
Critical Task: Establish 270, 000 lbm/hr Auxiliary Feedwater flow before completion of Attachment F of EMG E-0.
AP 15C-003, PROCEDURE USERS GUIDE ABNORMAL OPERATIONS, step 6.1.7 or EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, step 8 RNO b (start the pumps and throttle AFW) and/or Attachment F, Automatic Signal Verification, step F4 RNO b (starts TDAFW pump).
Event 8: Preloaded and post trip: Train Bravo CPIS and CISA autostart failure occurs; however, manual actuation available using SA HS-15 and SB HS-48 respectively; additionally, upon manual actuation, CTMT ATMS MONITOR SPLY CTMT ISO VLV, GS HV-36 and CTMT ATMS MONITOR RETURN CTMT ISO VLV, GS HV-34, remain open, manual closure available using GS HIS-36 and GS HIS-34.
Per EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, Attachment F, Automatic Signal Verification, step F3 RNOa, the ATC actuates CISA for Train Bravo using SB HS-48 and at step F9 RNOa actuates CPIS, SA HS-15 for Train Bravo and closes GS HV-36 and GS HV-34, isolating Containment.
Critical Task: Close containment isolation valves such that at least one valve is closed on each critical phase-A penetration before completion of Attachment F of EMG E-0.
SCENARIO TERMINATION:
Successful mitigation of the scenario requires the crew identify and mitigate the LOCA per EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT and then based on plant conditions, transition to EMG ES-11, POST LOCA COOLDOWN AND DEPRESSURIZATION or EMG ES-03, SI TERMINATION.
CRITICAL TASKS (CT):
Event 7: Establish 270, 000 lbm/hr Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) flow before completion of Attachment F of EMG E-0. NOTE: AFW total flow must be greater than 270,000 lbm/hr until narrow range level in at least one Steam Generator is greater than 6%. TDAFW pump must be started manually from the Control Room.
Event 8: Close containment isolation valves such that at least one valve is closed on each critical phase-A penetration before completion of Attachment F of EMG E-0. Close CTMT ATMS MONITOR SPLY CTMT ISO VLV, GS HV-36 and CTMT ATMS MONITOR RETURN CTMT ISO VLV, GS HV-34, isolating Containment.
