(2) One refueling water pump and/or its associated discharge valve at a time, for a period not longer than 72 consecutive hours.
(3) One hydrazine pump and/or its associated discharge valve (SV600 or 601) at a time, for a period of time not longer than 72 consecutive hours.
(4) One charging pump for a period of time not longer than 72 consecutive hours.
(5) One of the two required component cooling water pumps for a period of time not longer than 72 consecutive hours.
(6) One of the two saltwater cooling pumps with the auxiliary saltwater cooling pump or screen wash pumps available as backup for a period of time not longer than 72 consecutive hours. The backup pump(s) shall be demonstrated operable by test within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> of declaring the saltwater pump inoperable.
(7) One train of ESF swi c o% e automatic trip for a period of time not to exceed 72 consecutive hours.
C. Prior to initiating maintenance on any of the components, the duplicate (redundant) component shall be tested to demonstrate availability.
D. In the event of a failure of a recirculating pump, plant operation may continue provided operability of the remaining pump and its associated motive and control power are satisfactorily demonstrated on a daily basis, including verification that the containment spray bypass valves (CV517 and 518) are closed.
BASIS:
The requirements of Specification A assure that before the reactor can be made critical, or before the reactor coolant system heatup is initiated, adequate engineered safeguards are OPERABLE. The limit of 625 cc/hr for the recirculation loop leakage ensures that the combined 0-2 hr EAB thyroid dose due to recirculating loop leakage and containment leakage will not exceed the limits of 10 CFR 100. The formula for determining the leakage incorporates consideration of the significance of leakage in different plant areas. The iodine release factor adjusts actual pump or valve leakage to account for the fraction of the iodine in the leakage which would actually be released to the atmosphere. The iodine release factors in the auxiliary building sump, the auxiliary building or doghouse, and outside are 0.05, 0.5, and 1.0, respectively.

When the reactor is critical or the reactor coolant system temperature is above 200*F, maintenance is allowed per Specifications 8 and C providing requirements in Specification C are met which assure OPERABILITY of the redundant component. The specified maintenance times are a maximum, and maintenance work will proceed with diligence to return the equipment to an operable condition as promptly as possible. OPERABILITY of the specified components shall be based on the results of Specification No. 4.2.
The allowable maintenance periods are based upon the repair of certain specific items. Based on the demonstration that equipment redundant to that removed from service is OPERABLE, it is reasonable to maintain the reactor at power over this short period of time.
In the unlikely event that the need for safety injection should occur:
functioning of one train will protect the core.manRK Containment sprays alone, however, will maintain containment pressure under design pressure.*
functioning of one of the two hydrazine additive pumps and associated discharge valve will effect introduction of hydrazine into containment spray water. This provides for absorption of airborne fission products and reduction of the thyroid doses associated with the maximum hypothetical accident to within 10 CFR 100 limits.
dissolution of 5400 pounds of anhydrous trisodium phosphate stored in the sump will ensure that the pH of the water in the sump will be greater than 7 within four (4) hours, so as to prevent chloride stress corrosion cracking of systems and components exposed to the circulating sump water.
In the event of inoperability of a recirculation pump, plant operation may continue since either pump is sufficient and a daily OPERABILITY demonstration of the remaining pump and its associated motive and control power provides assurance that it will be OPERABLE if required.
The switchover from injection to recirculation modes is a two part process, which consists of the automatic termination of the flow from SI/FW pumps including automatic pump trip and automatic closures of MOV's 850 A, B and C followed by manual realignment to recirculation from the containment sump. The automatic trip setpoint is bounded by the minimum water level in the sump to support recirculation for long term post-LOCA cooling and the minimum RWST level to support charging and containment spray during the manual realignment. The setpoint analysis conservatively determined the automatic trip setpoint to be 20% of the RWST level.
The automatic trip setpoint is the result of the combination of the worst single active failure considering SIS and SISLOP conditions.

3.3.2 SHUTDN SIATUS APPLICABTLITY:
Applies to piping connections between the feedwater condensate system and the reactor coolant system.
OBJECIVE:
To preclude injection of feedwater condensate into the reactor coolant system when the reactor is shut down and to preclude the potential for overpressurization when water solid.
SPECIFICATION:
A. When reactor fuel assemblies are in the vessel and the reactor coolant pressure is less than 500 psig, two "positive barriers" shall be provided between the feedwater condensate system and the piping connections to the reactor coolant system. Additionally, when the reactor coolant system is water solid at less than 500 psig, two positive barriers shall be provided between the safety injection system and piping connections to the reactor coolant system. A "positive barrier* is defined as follows:
(1)
Motor _aerated Valves When closed and tagged with supply breakers open, except that power may be restored during no-flow tests of the safety injection system (Specification No. 4.2).
(2)
Pneumatic/Hydraulic Operated Valves When closed and the condition tagged with the respective hydraulic block valve closed except that they may be opened during no-flow tests of the safety injection system (Specification No. 4.2).
(3)
Manually Oerated Valves When closed and condition tagged.
(4)
Feedwater Pumo (Overpressurization Protection Only)
When shutdown with the breaker in the racked out condition.
Under normal conditions, system operational interlocks assure that injection of feedwater condensation to the reactor by SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 1 3.3-4 AMENCMENT NO:
25, 102. 120, 130
the safety injection system cannot occur.()
These interlocks include:
- 1. Actuation of the safety injection relay which de.
energizes the condensate and heater drain pumps and closes the flow path for condeasutt, thereby preventing injection of feedwater into the coolant system.
- 2. Interlocks between the condensate isolation valves at the feedwater pump suction and the safety injection header isolation valves at the pump 04seharge-which prevent the opening of the one valve unless the other is closed.
Below 500 psig the Safety Injection System may be removed from service. Below 400 psig the feedwater system may be removed from service. During these low pressure shutdown reactor coolant system conditions, the interlocks may be overridden for maintenance and/or tests of components of these systems. However, it is still necessary to prevent intrusion of feedwater condensate or safety injection water into the reactor coolant system. Injection of feedwater has the potential to dilute the system and create a potential -for-----
a reactivity excursion. Injection of either safety injection water or feedwater, especially during water solid operations-,
creates the potential for pressurizing above limits established by 10 CFR 50 Appendix G and as reflected in Technical Specification 3.1.3.
The 'two positive barriers* required by this specification provide protection of the Reactor Coolant System against boron dilution and overpressurization when in the low pressure and low temperature conditions. Two positive barriers are provided in each potential path between the Feedwater Condensate System, Safety Injection System and the RCS. During period of no-flow testing, an exception is provided on two of the positive barriers to allow the components involved in the test to perform their test functions while the remaining positive barriers (nos. 3 and 4) remain in effect.
Tagged, as used above, means tagged in accordance with current Southern California Edison Company procedures for tagging of equipment which must not be operated.

3.3.3 MINIMUM BORON CONCENTRATION IN THE REFUELING WATER STORAGE TANK (RWST)
AND SAFETY INJECTION (SI) LINES AND MINIMUM RWST WATER VOLUME APPLICABILITY: MODES 1, 2, 3 and 4; or as described in Specification 3.2.
OBJECTIVE:
To ensure immediate availability of borated water from the RWST for safety injection, containment spray or emergency boration.
SPECIFICATION: a. The RWST shall be OPERABLE with a level of at least plant elevation 50 feet of water having a boron concentration of not less than 3750 ppm and not greater than 4300 ppm.
- b. The safety injection (SI) lines from the RWST to MOV 850 A, 8 and C, with the exception of lines common to the feedwater system, shall be OPERABLE with a boron concentration of not less than 1500 ppm and not greater than 4300 ppm.

B. With one or both SI lines inoperable due to boron concentration of less than 1500 ppm, restore the SI lines to OPERABLE status 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 at least HOT STANDBY within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and COLD SHUTDOWN within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.
BASIS:
The refueling water storage tank serves three purposes; namely:
(1) As a reservoir of borated water for accident mitigation
- purposes, (2) 'As a reservoir of borated water for flooding the refueling cavity during refueling.
(3) As a deluge for fires in containment.
Approximately 220,000 gallons of borated water is required to provide adequate post-accident core cooling and containment spray to maintain calculated post-accident doses below the limits of 10 CFR 100(1).
The refueling water storage tank filled to elevation 50 feet represents in excess of 240,000 gallons.
A boron concentration of 3750 ppm in the RWST and 1500 ppm in the SI lines is required to meet the requirements of postulated steam line break.(2)(4) A maximum boron concentration of 4300 ppm ensures that the post-accident containment sump water is maintained at a pH between 7.0 and 7.5(3).
SAN ONOFRE -UNIT 1 3.3-8 AMENDMENT NO:
25, 38, 122, 130
The refueling tank capacity of 240,000 gallons is based on refueling volume requirements and includes an allowance for water not useable because of tank discharge line location.
Sustained temperatures below 32*F do not occur at San Onofre.
At 32*F, boric acid is soluble up to approximately 4650 ppm boron. Therefore, no special provisions for temperature control to avoid either freezing or boron precipitation are necessary.

3.3.4 MINIMUM SOLUTION VOLUME HYORAZINE CONCENTRATION IN THE HYORAZINE TANK O
APPLICABILITY: Applies to the inventory of spray additive solution.
To insure availability of containment spray additive solution of required quality.
SPECIFICATION: When the reactor coolant system temperature is above 200*F, the hydrazine tank shall contain not less than 150 gallons of aqueous solution having a concentration of not less than 21 wt% NH4.
The hydrazine tank serves the purpose of acting as a reservoir of aqueous hydrazine solution for post-accident iodine removal.
100 gallons of N2H, solution are required to reduce airborne iodine concentration in the event of a loss of coolant accident. By adding a 50% margin to this figure to enshire that NPSH to the spray addition pumps is maintained at all times, a total of 150 gallons is required. This amount fulfills requirements for safety injection operations.

BASIS:
The Safety Injection System is a principal plant safeguard. It provides means to insert negative reactivity and limits core damage in the event of a loss of coolant or steam break accident.
e Preoperational performance tests of the components are performed in the manufacturer's shop. An initial system flow test demonstrates proper dynamic functioning of the system.
Thereafter, periodic tests demonstrate that all components are functioning properly. For these tests, flow through the system is generally not required. However, in the case of the "Hot SIS Test," actual conditions of an SI event are simulated. This test is performed to assure that long-term set of the valve seat faces on HV-851 A and 8 has not caused the valves to become inoperable. The test is required to be performed as the plant is shutting down from MODE 1 in order to assure that the valves have not been disturbed (1.e., the long-term set is still in effect) and that full dynamic conditions that would occur during an actual SI event are simulated. When possible the test should be performed prior SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 1 4.2-4 AMENDMENT NO:
25, 37, 114, 124 130
to stopping the feedwater pumps (this is not a requirement).
This will further assure that the valves will be in the same condition as when required for an actual Safety Injection event since the discharge pressure of the feedwater pumps acting on the valves will keep them seated even considering any backpressure built up in the downstream SI header.
Theequation used to determine future intervals if actuator force is between 10,000 lb, and 22,000 lb, is developed by shortening the interval in direct proportion to the degree to which the force exceeds 10,000 lb,.
During the test, all components are verified to have operated and sequenced properly.
The tests required in this specification will demonstrate that all components which do not normally and routinely operate will operate properly and in sequence if required. The portion of the Recirculation system outside the containment sphere is effectively an extension of the boundary of the containment.
The measurement of the recirculation loop leakage ensures that the calculated EAB 0-2 hr. thyroid dose does not exceed 10 CFR 100 limits.
The trisodium phosphate stored in storage racks located in the containment is provided to minimize the possibility of stress corrosion cracking of metal components during operation of the ECCS following a LOCA. The trisodium phosphate provides this protection by dissolving in the sump water and causing its final pH to be raised to 7.0 - 7.5. The requirement to dissolve trisodium phosphate from one of the sample storage racks in distilled water heated and borated, to the extent recirculating post LOCA sump water is projected to be heated and borated, provides assurance that the stored trisodium phosphate will dissolve as required following a LOCA. The sample storage racks are sized to contain 0.5 pounds of trisodium phosphate. Trisodium phosphate stored in the sample storage racks has a surface area to volume ratio of 1.33 whereas the trisodium phosphate stored in the main racks has a surface area to volume ratio of 1.15.
Visual inspection of the non-redundant piping in the Containment Spray System provides additional assurance of the integrity of that system.
Surveillance testing of the RWST low-low level main feedwater/
safety injection pump trips and automatic closure of MOV 850A, 8508 and 850C valves will ensure that these components will be available to complete their safety functions if required.

BASIS:
The requirements of this specification assure the Emergency Core Cooling System is OPERABLE. The flow paths and pump trains for the safety injection system are separated to reflect electrical train alignment, and to reflect the SONGS 1 common header configuration. Specific MODE operability requirements for ECCS valves and required flow indicators are provided in Technical Specification 3.3.8, "Status of ECCS Components." The following describes the train alignment:

CV-37 CV-36 Feedwater Isolation MOV-20, MOV-22 MOV-21 Feedwater Control FCV-456 FCV-457, FCV-458 The recirculation valves (CV-875A, CV-875B, CV-36, CV-37) and the feedwater bypass control valves (CV-142, CV-143, CV-144) prevent flow diversion from the SI path. There are redundant isolation valves on each feedwater path. The valves are paired on opposite electrical trains with the main feedwater control valves to provide redundant isolation. The bypass valves have redundant power supplies and are actuated to close by both electrical trains. Also refer to Table 3.3.8 1, "Status of Components."
Three Safety Injection Flow Paths The three flow paths and associated valves, e.g., MOVs-850A (Train B), 850B (Train A), and 850C (Uninterruptible Power Supply, UPS), are available to inject borated water into the RCS. The SI flow path is common to both SI pump trains, and MOV-850C can be considered to operate with either train, since its power supply is independent. The MOV-850 valves automatically open for safety injection and are automatically closed by the low-low RWST level trip.
The safety analysis for Main Steam Line Break (MSLB) and Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) (UFSAR Sections 15.2 and 15.16) is based on flow from one path. The flow from a second path is assumed blocked by failure of the injection valve to open.
The third path is assumed to be blocked during a MSLB due to.
a common-cause power supply failure, or spilling directly to the break during a LOCA.

Both valves fail open to the conservatively safe position.
Three Cold Leg Recirculation Paths Valves FCV-1115D, FCV-1115E, FCV-1115F can be powered from either Train A or B. These direct the common header to the loop injection valves, MOV-356 (Loop A, Train A), MOV-357 (Loop B, Train B), MOV-358 (Loop C, UPS).
Alternate cold leg paths may be available through the normal charging path to RCS Loop A, or via seal injection. These alternate paths are not credited in the safety analysis, and therefore are not included in the specifications.

Flow is through either of two parallel valves, MOV-1100B and MOV-11000, to the charging pumps. A common discharge header supplies flow to the hot leg via auxiliary pressurizer spray. The normal path valves which are not redundant (such as FCV-1112 and CV-305) may be powered from either electrical train to operate with a failure of either the Train A or Train B electrical power.
SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 1 3.3-5 AMENDMENT NO: 29,38,70,83,91,130
The recirculation pump discharge valves, MOV-866A and MOV 866B are equipped with a power lockout feature. The power lockout assures the valves will not spuriously open before the proper conditions exist for recirculation. This prevents the recirculation lines from being pressurized with air and steam which could gas-bind the charging pumps and disable the refueling water pumps by closing the RWST check valve to the containment spray system.
The alternate hot leg path serves as a back-up to the normal hot leg recirculation flow path in the event of a mechanical failure of either FCV-1112 or CV-305. The path takes flow from the recirculation heat exchanger and the refueling water pumps through either of two RHR heat exchangers via either MOV-822A or MOV-822B. Manual bypass valve RHR-004 (which is locked open) allows flow around the RHR pumps, and through the RHR isolation valves, MOV-813 and MOV-814, to the Loop C hot leg. The alternate path requires both electrical trains (Train A and B) to operate the series isolation valves. The motor operators for valves MOV-822A and MOV-822B are presently not qualified for submergence; therefore a minimum of one of these valves must be maintained de-energized in the open position, as specified by Table 3.3.8-1.
Recirculation Boundary Valves To prevent flow diversion, valves which interconnect the recirculation paths with other systems are required to be operable or closed. Table 3.3.8-1, "Status of Components,"
lists the operability requirements for these valves. Flow Indicator FIT-1112 is used to evaluate normal hot leg recirculation flow from the charging system. Flow Indicators FI-3114A, FI-2114B, FI-2114C, indicate the flow to each cold leg. The letdown containment isolation valves receive isolation actuation from both trains, however they are powered from a single train and fail closed. The following are flow diversion valves:

Basis for Operation of ECCS In the unlikely event that the need for safety injection or containment spray should occur during a time of component inoperability:
functioning of one train of the safety injection, recir i?
and CCW systems will protect the core.
dissolution of 5400 pounds of anhydrous trisodium phosphate stored in the sump will ensure that the pH of the water in the sump will be greater than 7 within four (4) hours, so as to prevent chloride stress corrosion cracking of systems and components exposed to the circulating sump water.
The limit of 625 cc/hr for the recirculation loop leakage ensures that the combined 0-2 hour EAB thyroid dose due to recirculation loop leakage and containment leakage will not exceed the limits of 10 CFR 100. The formula for determining the leakage incorporates consideration of the significance of leakage in different plant areas. The iodine release factor adjusts actual pump or valve leakage to account for the fraction of the iodine in the leakage which would actually be released to the atmosphere. The iodine release factors in the auxiliary building sump, the auxiliary building or containment penetration room, and outside are 0.05, 0.5, and 1.0, respectively.
The Recirculation System provides long term post-LOCA cooling and prevents boron precipitation. The system consists of the recirculation heat exchanger, pumps, valves, and multiple flow paths. There are two main flow paths: the cold leg recirculation flow paths for normal sump recirculation through the cold legs (via MOVs-356,357,358), and the normal and alternate hot leg recirculation flow paths. The alternate hot leg flow path is unique in that the components rely on both electrical trains. The alternate hot leg recirculation path serves as a back-up to the normal hot leg recirculation flow path.

UNIT 1 3.3-7 AMENDMENT NO: 29,38,70,83,91,130
The switchover from injection to recirculation modes is a two part process. This is accomplished by the automatic termination of the flow from the safety injection/feedwater pumps and by automatic pump trip and automatic closure of MOV-850 A, B, and C. The realignment to recirculation from the containment sump is accomplished manually. The automatic RWST level trip setpoint is limited by the minimum water level in the sump required for long term post-LOCA cooling and the minimum RWST level to support charging and containment spray during the manual realignment. The setpoint analysis conservatively determined the automatic trip setpoint to be between 18% and 20% of the RWST level.
The automatic trip setpoint is the result of the combination of the worst single active failure considering SIS and SISLOP conditions.

UNIT 1 3.3-9 AMENDMENT NO: 29,38,70,83,91,130
BASIS:
The basis for Specification 3.3.1, describes the train alignment and flow paths.
The isolation of the primary safety injection flow path is completed by the time the RCS pressure has been reduced to 500 psig to protect the reactor vessel from exceeding 10 CFR 50 Appendix G pressure-temperature limits caused by potential low temperature overpressurization events. The primary safety injection flow path may be isolated starting at an RCS pressure of 600 psig. A pressure of 600 psig was chosen to provide a 100 psi margin and allow sufficient time for the operators to establish the specified positive barriers required by Specification 3.3.3.
When the RCS pressure is less than 600 psig, one operable cold leg injection train, consisting of a charging pump and associated flow path with manual actuation, is provided, as described in the UFSAR Section 6.3. The cold leg injection path is not required by the safety analysis; however, it is being provided to conform with the provisions of the Standard Technical Specifications for Westinghouse plants. A minimum of two cold leg discharge flow paths to separate RCS loops is required. The selected loops should be through two of either FCV-1115D, FCV-1115E, FCV-1115F and corresponding valves MOV-356, MOV-357, or MOV-358. Since both refueling water pumps are required to be OPERABLE in Modes 1 through 4, by Technical Specification 3.3.5, and both supply a common header, a requirement to train align these pumps has not been included in this specification.
Single failure consideration is not a concern due to the stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the limited core cooling requirements. This is consistent with the Standard Technical Specifications Basis for the ECCS components in MODE 4 and provides an operational band to establish positive barriers specified in Section 3.3.3. This specification is consistent with the charging pump operability requirement in Section 3.2.

UNIT 1 3.3-10 AMENDMENT NO: 29,38,70,83,91,130
3.3.3 ISOLATION OF FEEDWATER/SAFETY INJECTION FROM REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM APPLICABILITY:
MODE 3 below 500 psig, Modes 4, 5 and 6.
OBJECTIVE:
To preclude injection of feedwater/condensate into the reactor coolant system when the reactor is shut down and to preclude the potential for overpressurization when water solid.
SPECIFICATION:
When reactor fuel assemblies are in the vessel and the reactor coolant pressure is less than 500 psig, two "positive barriers" shall be provided between the feedwater/condensate system and the piping connections to the reactor coolant system.
Additionally, when the reactor coolant system is water solid at less than 500 psig, two positive barriers shall be provided between the safety injection system and piping connections to the reactor coolant system.
A "positive barrier" is defined as follows:
(1)
Motor Operated Valves When closed and tagged with supply breakers open, except that power may be restored during no-flow tests of the safety injection system (Specification 4.2.F.2).
(2)
Pneumatic/Hydraulic Operated Valves When closed and condition tagged, with the respective hydraulic actuated block valves closed, or otherwise blocked closed, except that they may be opened during no-flow tests of the safety injection system (Specification 4.4.F.2).
(3)
Manually Operated Valves When closed and condition tagged.
(4)
Feedwater Pump (Overpressurization Protection Only)
When shutdown with the breaker racked out, or in the test position.
ACTION:
With less than the required two "positive barriers" between the feedwater/condensate system, or safety injection system, and the piping connections to the reactor coolant system, verify the status of the remaining "positive barrier" once per shift and initiate action to restore the barrier(s) as soon as possible.
SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 1 3.3-11 AMENDMENT NO: 25, 102, 120, 130
BASIS:
Under normal conditions, system operational interlocks assure that injection of feedwater/condensate inj the reactor by the safety injection system cannot occur.
These interlocks include:
- 1.
Actuation of the safety injection system which de-energizes the condensate and heater drain pumps and closes the flow path for condensate, thereby preventing injection of feedwater into the reactor coolant system.
- 2.
Interlocks between the condensate isolation valves at the feedwater pump suction and the safety injection header isolation valves at the pump discharge which prevent the opening of the header isolation valve unless the pump condensate suction valve is closed.
Below 600 psig the Safety Injection and Feedwater Pumps may be removed from service in accordance with Specification 3.3.2. A band of 100 psi is provided to allow the operators time to isolate the pumps prior to reaching the 500 psig limit of the Specification. With the reactor coolant system in a low pressure shutdown condition, the interlocks may be overridden for maintenance and/or tests of components of these systems. However, it is still necessary to prevent intrusion of feedwater condensate or safety injection water into the reactor coolant system. Injection of feedwater has the potential to dilute the system and create a potential for a reactivity excursion. Injection of either safety injection water or feedwater, especially during water solid operations, creates the potential for pressurizing above limits established by 10 CFR 50 Appendix G and as reflected in Technical Specification 3.1.3.
The "two positive barriers" required by this specification provide protection of the Reactor Coolant System against boron dilution and overpressurization when in the low pressure and low temperature conditions. Two positive barriers are provided in each potential path between the Feedwater Condensate System, Safety Injection System and the RCS. During periods of no-flow testing, an exception is provided on two of the positive barriers to allow the components involved in the test to perform their test functions while the remaining positive barriers (nos. 3 and
- 4) remain in effect.
Tagged, as used above, means tagged in accordance with current Southern California Edison Company procedures for tagging of equipment which must not be operated.

This is not required when the SI lines are isolated from the RCS under specification 3.3.3.
SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 1 3.3-13 AMENDMENT NO:
25, 38, 122, 130
BASIS:
The refueling water storage tank serves three purposes; namely:
(1)
As a reservoir of borated water for accident mitigation purposes, (2)
As a reservoir of borated water for flooding the refueling cavity during refueling, (3)
As a deluge for fires in containment.
Approximately 220,000 gallons of borated water are required to provide adequate post-accident core cooling and containment spray to maintain alculated post-accident doses below the limits of 10 CFR 100.
The refueling water storage tank filled to elevation 50 feet represents in excess of 240,000 gallons.
A boron concentration of 3750 ppm in the RWST and 1500 ppm in the SI lines is required to m t the requirements of a postulated steam line break(2) 4.
A maximum boron concentration of 4300 ppm ensures that the post-accident continment sump water is maintained at a pH between 7.0 and 7.5 The refueling tank capacity of 240,000 gallons is based on refueling volume requirements and includes an allowance for water not useable because of tank discharge line location.
Sustained temperatures below 320F do not occur at San Onofre.
At 320F, boric acid is soluble up to approximately 4650 ppm boron. Therefore, no special provisions for temperature control to avoid either freezing or boron precipitation are necessary. The boron concentration is no longer required to be maintained when the SI lines are isolated from the RCS and two "positive barriers" are established in accordance with Section 3.3.3.

BASIS:
The containment spray system is required to maintain the containment peak pressure below the design containment pressure in the limiting design basis accidents. The design basis MSLB inside the containment is the limiting accident for containment integrity. The containment spray system will maintain containment pressure under the design pressure for the design basis MSLB.
The Specification requires the components to be train aligned as follow:
Two Containment Spray System Trains Train A Train B Refueling Water Pump G-27N G-27S Flow Limiting Valves CV-517 CV-518 Containment Spray Valves CV-82 CV-114 Two Containment Spray Additive System Trains Train A Train B Hydrazine Pump G-200A G-200B Valves SV-600 SV-601 Functioning of one of the two hydrazine additive pumps and the associated discharge valve will inject hydrazine into the containment spray water. This provides for absorption of airborne fission products and reduction of the thyroid doses associated with the maximum hypothetical accident to within 10 CFR 100 limits.
SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 1 3.3-16 AMENDMENT NO: 25, 130
The containment spray system consists of two redundant trains which satisfy the single failure criterion. At least one containment spray flow limiter valve, CV-517 or CV-518, must be open during the initial containment spray mode to pass the design flow rate of the containment spray system. Since the flow limiting valves require non-safety related instrument air to open, the flow limiting valves are required to be maintained in the open position to assure the valves will be in the correct position for containment spray. For operation during the recirculation phase both valves are closed.
Instrument air is not required to close the valves. One of the two valves is permitted to be inoperable in the open position, under Table 3.3.8-1, for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, providing both recirculating water pumps are operable. Both pumps are needed in this alignment to assure adequate flow to the charging pumps.
MOV-883 is the isolation valve for the common flow path from the refueling water storage tank to the containment spray system. It must remain open during injection mode and be capable of closure for recirculation mode. Single failure susceptibility of MOV-883 due to spurious closure which would result in loss of refueling water supply to the containment spray system is precluded by redundant lockout of both the control and motive power. Therefore, inoperability of a redundant power lockout switch for this valve will require an entry into a 1-hour action statement. Similarly, single failure susceptibility of CV-92 which would divert containment spray flow to the fire spray header in the containment, is precluded by redundant lockout of power.
Again, an entry into a 1-hour action statement is required since CV-92 affects both trains. Such configuration is permitted in the Standard Review Plan BTP ICSB 18.
The hydrazine tank is a reservoir of aqueous hydrazine solution for post-accident iodine removal.
100 gallons of 15% N2 4 solution satisfies the current analysis assumptions of hydrazine for two hours with both pumps running to reduce airborne iodine concentration in the event of a loss of coolant accident. A total of at least 150 gallons 21 wt%, or greater, NH4 is maintained, i.e., 50% margin, to ensure that NPSH is maintained to the spray addition pumps and proper concentration exists at all times. Therefore, this amount fulfills requirements for safety injection operations.

SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 1 3.3-20 AMENDMENT NO: 25,37, 86, 124, 130
BASIS:
The OPERABILITY of the component cooling water system ensures that sufficient cooling capacity is available for continued operation of the safety related equipment during normal and accident conditions. The redundant cooling capacity of this system, assuming a single failure, is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses.
The alignment of the CCW System is as follows:
Component Cooling Water System Alignment Train A Train B CCW Pumps G-15A G-15B or G-15C Saltwater Pumps G-13A G-13B CCW Hx E-20A E-20B CCW Hx Outlet MOV-720A MOV-720B Normally the CCW system is operated train aligned. To extend the time the CCW heat exchangers may be out of service, a valve alignment may be made to provide cooling using a single heat exchanger. The CCW heat exchanger being removed from service is fully isolated, and the cross-tie valve, SWC-300, on the saltwater header is opened. With SWC-300 open, both trains of saltwater pumps are available to supply the operable CCW heat exchanger. The CCW discharge valve on the operable CCW heat exchanger is failed open to assure that it cannot be closed.

BASIS:
Maintaining the ECCS paths operable requires that the components which comprise the flow paths be operable, or in the correct position for operation. Specifications (a) and (b) define the number of trains required for each ECCS flow path, according to mode of operation. The train operability requirements are based on the requirements contained in section 3.3 of the Technical Specifications.
Table 3.3.8-1 provides specific operability requirements for components which make up the ECCS flow paths. The table provides the operator with a single listing of valves and components. The table listing is intended to reduce the potential for misassigning components to flow paths, since many of the components share common flow paths and functions.
The bases for the specifications in section 3.3 provide additional information regarding the function of the components within the flow paths. Because many of these components are also covered under the other specifications in section 3.3, it is important to refer to the other subsections of 3.3 to ensure the most limiting action is implemented.
San Onofre Unit 1 3.3-23
Train alignment is based on the flow path requirements, and does not necessarily correspond to the electrical alignment because of the common header arrangement, and the distinction between the alternate hot leg and normal hot leg paths.
MOV-850C and MOV-358 are listed as "UPS" train valves as these have an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), and therefore, are not dependant on either electrical train.
Both of these valves are on a common header. Due to the independent electrical supply, it is not required to train align these valves for electrical single failure considerations. These valves are treated as common valves, as described below. Since these valves are not electrically trained aligned they can be paired with either Train A or B.
However, as these valves are also part of the safety injection and cold leg recirculation paths, respectively, removal from service of these valves is also subject to Technical Specifications 3.3.1.b, or 3.3.1.d.
Components which have a "COM" in the flow path column are common to both trains. Common components are treated as affecting a single train for entry into the action statements. After the action statement has been entered the removal from service of other components must be completed within the time limit specified from time the first component was removed from service, and restricted to a single train, or other common or diversion components. The common valves which are treated as affecting a single train are redundant, or otherwise protected from single failure. Common valves which are not protected from single failure, or would cause a flow path to be inoperable, are specifically listed under Action Statement (D) with a one hour time limit.
"DIV," is used to distinguish between common flow path valves and those valves which prevent flow diversion from the flow paths listed. The action requirements are the same as for the common valves, however, the distinction has been made to clarify the purpose of these valves. Diversion valves do not constitute a separate train, but may affect one, or both trains. Flow path diversion valves, in general, do not cause both trains to become inoperable because sufficient redundancy exists to allow isolation of the pathway. After the action statement has been entered, the removal from service of other components must be completed within the time limit specified from time the first component was removed from service, and restricted to a single train, or other diversion, or common components. Those valves which do not have redundant isolation capability are listed under one hour Action Statement (D).
San Onofre Unit 1 3.3-24
"ALT," and "HLR," designates the alternate and normal trains of hot leg recirculation since these are not aligned with the "A" and "B" electrical trains.
Power locked valves, MOV-883, MOV 866A & B, and CV-92 are.
equipped with redundant switches from the control room and starter relays which permit the power to be locked out without physically disabling the operability of the valve.
Deactivated valves have the power supply removed, or the valve has been physically restrained from operating.

3.5.5 CONTAINMENT ISOLATION INSTRUMENTATION APPLICABILITY: Applies to instrumentation which actuates the containment sphere isolation valves, containment sphere purge and exhaust
- valves, and containment sphere instrumentation vent header valves.
OBJECTIVE:
To ensure reliability of the containment sphere isolation provisions.
SPECIFICATION: The instrumentation channels shown in Table 3.5.5-1 shall be OPERABLE with their trip setpoints set consistent with the values shown in the Trip Setpoint column of Table 3.5.5-2.
ACTION:
A. With an instrumentation channel trip setpoint less conservative than the Allowable Values column of Table 3.5.5-2, declare the channel inoperable and apply the applicable ACTION requirement of Table 3.5.5-1 until the channel is restored to OPERABLE status with the trip setpoint adjusted consistent with the Trip Setpoint Value.
B. With an instrumentation channel inoperable, take the ACTION shown in Table 3.5.5-1.
BASIS:
The OPERABILITY of these instrumentation systems ensure that 1) the associated action will be initiated when the parameter monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its setpoint, 2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained, 3) sufficient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance, and 4) sufficient system functional capability is available from diverse parameters.
The OPERABILITY of these systems is required to provide the overall reliability, redundancy, and diversity assumed available in the facility design for the protection and mitigation of accident and transient conditions.
The integrated operation of each of these systems is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses.

D. Testing ECCS Valves (1) At least once every 31 days verify that each valve (manual, power operated or automatic) which is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in the correct position.
(2) At least once every 31 days verify that the power supply breaker for either MOV-822A or MOV-822B is open when in MODES 1, 2 or 3 with the RCS pressure greater than or equal to 600 psig.
(3) At least once per 18 months, during shutdown, by verifying that each automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct position on a safety injection test signal.
BASIS:
The Safety Injection System is a principal plant safeguard. It provides means to insert negative reactivity and limits core damage in th nt of a loss of coolant or steam break accident.
The inspections and tests are to assure the availability of the components and the equipment for safety injection, cold leg recirculation, hot leg recirculation, alternate hot leg recirculation and containment spray.
Preoperational performance tests of the components are performed in the manufacturer's shop. An initial system flow test demonstrates proper dynamic functioning of the system.
Thereafter, periodic tests demonstrate that all components are functioning properly. For these tests, flow through the system is generally not required. However, in the case of the "Hot SIS Test," actual conditions of an SI event are simulated. This test is performed to assure that long-term set of the valve seat faces on HV-851 A and B has not caused the valves to become inoperable. The test is required to be performed as the plant is shutting down from MODE 1 in order to assure that the valves have not been disturbed (i.e., the long-term set is still in effect) and that full dynamic conditions that would occur during an actual SI event are simulated. When possible the test should be performed prior to stopping the feedwater pumps (this is not a requirement).
This will further assure that the valves will be in the same condition as when required for an actual Safety Injection event since the discharge pressure of the feedwater pumps acting on the valves will keep them seated even considering any backpressure built up in the downstream SI header. The equation used to determine future intervals if actuator force is between 10,000 lbf and 22,000 lbf is developed by shortening the interval in direct proportion to the degree to which the force exceeds 10,000 lbf.
During the test, all components are verified to have operated and sequenced properly.

The tests required in this specification will demonstrate that all components which do not normally and routinely operate will operate properly and in sequence if required. The monthly verification assures that one of the RHR heat exchanger valves (MOV-822A or MOV-822B) is de-energized.
Because the valves are located in the containment, and are not environmentally qualified, one valve is requried to be open with the power removed. It is not required to physically verify the valve position, since access to the containment is limited. The In-Service Test Program is used to verify required ECCS valves are operable. The portion of the Recirculation system outside the containment sphere is effectively an extension of the boundary of the containment.
The measurement of the recirculation loop leakage ensures that the calculated EAB 0-2 hr. thyroid dose does not exceed 10 CFR 100 limits.
The trisodium phosphate stored in storage racks located in the containment is provided to minimize the possibility of stress corrosion cracking of metal components during operation of the ECCS following a LOCA. The trisodium phosphate provides this protection by dissolving in the sump water and causing its final pH to be raised to 7.0 - 7.5. The requirement to dissolve trisodium phosphate from one of the sample storage racks in distilled water heated and borated, to the extent recirculating post LOCA sump water is projected to be heated and borated, provides assurance that the stored trisodium phosphate will dissolve as required following a LOCA. The sample storage racks are sized to contain 0.5 pounds of trisodium phosphate. Trisodium phosphate stored in the sample storage racks has a surface area to volume ratio of 1.33 whereas the trisodium phosphate stored in the main racks has a surface area to volume ratio of 1.15.
Visual inspection of the non-redundant piping in the Containment Spray System provides additional assurance of the integrity of that system.
Surveillance testing of the RWST low-low level main feedwater/
safety injection pump trips and automatic closure of MOV 850A, 850B and 850C valves will ensure that these components will be available to complete their safety functions if required.
