INFORMATION FOR SEP TOPIC VI-4, SAN ONOFRE UNIT 1 Item 1:

Provide a table similar to Table 4.3 of the FSAR, "Valves Required for Containment Isolation."

Include information on the new isolation valves, mentioned in Table 3.2-1 of Amendment 52 to the FSAR.

Response: is a modified Table 3.2-1 from Amendment 52, including new valve identification and information as were presented on Table 4.3. The information includes position during operation, method of actuation, and fail safe mode, and has been condensed to omit lines without isolation valves such as Feedwater and Condensate System lines and other lines listed on Sheets 6 and 7 of Table 3.2-1.

The valves (omitted from modified table) which are closed by a containment isolation actuation signal and the sampling lines they isolate are listed below:

SV-702 A&B, line 6107-3/4" SV-702 C&D, line 6108-3/4" SV-119, line 1201-1/4"-EG1 SV-123, line 1207-3/8"-EG1 SV-120, line 1202-1/4"-EG1 SV-122, line 1208-3/8"-EG1 SV-121, line 1203-1/4"-EG1 SV-124, line 1209-3/8"-EG1 Item 2:

Identify all containment penetrations, including piping penetrations, spare penetrations, fuel transfer tube, equipment hatch and personnel airlock(s). For the airlock(s), show the isolation provisions for test instrument and other lines that penetrate the airlock and airlock doors.

Where blind flanges are used, verify that the capability exists for leak testing.

Response

All piping penetrations and spares are identified on drawing 715337. The Equipment Access Hatch, the Escape (Air) Lock and the Personnel Air Lock are identified on drawing 715337. The electrical penetrations and spares are identified on drawing 432587. The spare electrical penetrations have blind flange closures.

All are tested (Type A) with the containment.

The air locks, the test arrangements for which are shown on drawing 568780, have only'a single piping penetration for the test functions of pressurizing and pressure monitoring. This penetration is in the outer barrier, leaving the inner barrier intact. Although no isolation provisions are required, there are normally closed valves (not redundant) in the test line for filling and venting.

As discussed in response to Item 5 below, the drawings referenced above are enclosed.

Item 3:

Identify the signals which isolate the automatic isolation valves, and specify the parameters sensed for each signal.

Response

The containment isolation actuation signal for each of the two Containment Isolation System trains is generated by high containment pressure, by safety injection initiation or by manual initiation in the main control room.

The high containment pressure signal is generated based on 2 out of 3 transducers sensing high pressure.

-2 The pressure switches PS-23 and PS-117 originally used for containment isolation, have been replaced by six new pressure transmitters, three aligned with each train.

The safety injection actuation signal is generated by either Safeguard Load Sequencing System train (sequencers 1 and 2).

The initiation of this signal is by sequencer logic of 2 out of 3 low pressurizer pressure, by sequencer logic of 2 out of 3 high containment pressure or by manual initiation.

In addition, a signal from the containment radiation monitor channel R-1212 will close of POV-9,-10, CV-10, -40 and CV-116 in containment purge and vent lines.

Item 4:

Table 4.3 of the FSAR references Supplement 1 where lines are considered to be extensions of the containment. Since we no longer have Supplement 1, please provide the appropriate information when providing the table requested (Item 1).

Response

For completeness, Enclosure 2 provides our response to Question 2 of Supplement 1, regarding extensions of containment. Additional information regarding exemptions of containment is provided by footnotes e.

and f. of Table 3.2-1 of Amendment 52.

Item 5:

Provide updated system design drawings which show the containment isolation provisions for piping systems that penetrate the containment.

Response

The mechanical and controls drawings relevant to the Containment Isolation System as listed below are enclosed. Some drawings have been revised but not yet updated. Where this is the case, the appropriate Configuration Changes have been identified and are enclosed.

QUESTION 2 It appears that, in several lines leading from pumps within the containment to external areas, isolation depends on the operation of single (nonredundant) valves. What is the justification for this design? Can a single circuit failure prevent the automatic isolation of the containment ventilation system? Are the isolation valves in the containment ventilation system designed to close against accident pressure?

ANSWER There are only two sets of pumps that transfer water from within the containment to external areas during plant operation. These -are:

(a)

Sphere sump pumps.

(b) Reactor coolant system drain tank pumps.

The sphere sump pump and reactor coolant system drain tank pumps are used to transfer contents of the tank and sump to the radioactive waste dis posal system. Each set of pumps discharges to a line that contains redundant isolation valves, one inside and one outside the containment sphere. These valves are solenoid actuated diaphragm valves that automatically close on a high containment pressure signal and can be remotely manually closed from the control room. All valves fail closed on loss of actuating power.

The line leading outside the sphere from the recirculation pump is an extension of the containment boundary. To prevent leakage from this piping, all piping connections leading to atmosphere are isolated and the piping itself is designed to withstand post-accident pumping pressure superimposed on the containment design pressure.

The attached table lists the piping connections to the recirculation piping, and the means of isolation.

Whenever the containment is sealed and the reactor is critical, the sphere ventilation valves will be in the closed position and backed up by blind flanges on the ambient air side. These valves are opened only to purge the sphere when.the reactor is in the hot shutdown condition. They are designed to close against a differential pressure of 50 psi.

An air storage tank is mounted near the valves with sufficient capacity to insure compressed air supply to the valve operators in the event station instrument air is lost.

Any one of three signals will close the sphere ventilation valves automatically. These signals are PS-23 or PS-117 (sphere pressure), and high radiation from channel R-1214 radiation monitoring system. The ventilation valves can also be remotely closed from the control room by a manual switch.
