Revision 1 (February 15, 2014)

General Integrated Plan Elements (BWR)

Determine Applicable Input the hazards applicable to the site; seismic, external Extreme External Hazard. flood, high winds, snow, ice, cold, high temps.

Describe how NEI 12-06 sections 5 - 9 were applied and Ref: NEI 12-06 section 4.0-9.0 the basisfor why the plant screenedout for certain hazards.

JLD-ISG-2012-01 section 1.0 Seismic Hazard Assessment:

Per the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) (Reference 1) Section 11-5, the seismic criteria for Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS) include two design basis earthquake spectra:

Operating Basis Earthquake at 0.1g and Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) at 0.2g. Per Reference 2, all sites will consider the seismic hazard.

External Floodinq Hazard Assessment:

Per the USAR (Reference 1) Section 11-4, the design basis flood is a value of 903.0 Mean Sea Level (MSL) for the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). The general ground elevation surrounding CNS Class I Structures is elevated 13 feet above the natural floodplain to 903 feet MSL. The finished floor elevation of all Class I Structures is placed at elevation 903.5 feet MSL, or 1/2 feet above the PMF event. These structures were designed for a hydraulic load equivalent to a groundwater elevation of 903 feet. The station site grade level of 903 feet MSL has been raised 13 feet above the natural grade level of 890 feet MSL, in order to bring final grade one foot above the existing 902 feet MSL levee constructed by the Corps of Engineers. This levee was raised above its original design level and presently has a three foot minimum free board over the 1952 flood of record (899 feet MSL). Flooding of the station is considered to be extremely unlikely due to the combination of upstream Missouri River flood control and the high final site grade. With respect to the 1,000 year, 10,000 year, and 1,000,000 year (PMF) floods, these water levels will provide 3-12 feet, 1-1/2 feet, and 6 inches of freeboard respectively below the 903'6" grade floor elevation of the principle structures.

Per Reference 2, the site is considered a "dry" site, i.e., the plant is built above the design basis flood level and the external flooding hazard need not be considered.

High Wind Hazard Assessment:

Per the USAR (Reference 1) Section 11-3, the design wind pressure for the station and structures is 30 lbs per square foot which is the equivalent of sustained winds up to 100 mph. Station structures have been designed to withstand this wind velocity in accordance with ASCE Paper 3269. Additionally, per USAR (Reference 1) Section XlI-2, Class I structures are designed to the following:

  • Tornado design criteria
1. A tangential velocity of 300 mph.
2. A transverse velocity of 60 mph.
3. A pressure drop of 3 psi occurring over a 3 second time interval.
  • A 35 foot long utility pole with a 14 inch butt with an impact velocity of 200 mph.

Page 1 of 5l

CNS Overall Integrated Plan for Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies (FLEX)

Revision 1 (February 15, 2014)

  • A one-ton missile such as compact-type automobile with an impact velocity of 100 mph and a contact area of 25 square feet.

" A 2 inch extra heavy pipe, 12 feet long.

  • Any other missile resulting from failure of a structure or component or one which has potential of being lifted from storage or working areas at the site.

The CNS site is located in an area characterized by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) as having tornado design wind speeds greater than 130 mph (Reference 2, figure 7-

2) and as such, the tornado hazard will be considered.

Extreme Cold Hazard Assessment:

Per the USAR (Reference 1) Section 11-3, the design low outside temperature is -5°F dry bulb which will only be exceeded 1% of the time during the winter. The CNS site is located within the region characterized by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as having a 3-day snowfall of up to 18" (Reference 2, figure 8-1) and would need to consider snow removal in the deployment of the FLEX strategy. The CNS site is also located within the region characterized by Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) as ice severity level 4 (Reference 2, figure 8-2). As such, the CNS site is subject to severe damage to power lines and/or existence of large amounts of ice. Per Reference 2, cold temperatures, snow, and ice will be considered.

Extreme High Temperature Hazard Assessment:

Per the USAR (Reference 1) Section 11-3, the CNS design high outside temperature is 97°F dry bulb (79 0 F wet bulb). Based on historical records, this temperature is only expected to be exceeded 1% of the time during the summer. Per Reference 2, all sites will address high temperatures.

==

Conclusion:==

The hazards applicable to CNS to consider on the deployment of the strategies to meet the baseline coping capability are seismic, high winds, extreme cold, snow, ice, and high temperature.

CNS Overall Integrated Plan for Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies (FLEX)

Revision 1 (February 15, 2014) 10 CFR 50.54(xW and/or 10 CFR 73.55(D):

This plan defines strategies capable of mitigating a simultaneous loss of all AC power and loss of normal access to the ultimate heat sink resulting from a beyond-design-basis event by providing adequate capability to maintain or restore core cooling, containment, and Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) cooling capabilities at all units on a site. Though specific strategies are being developed, due to the inability to anticipate all possible scenarios, the strategies are also diverse and flexible to encompass a wide range of possible conditions. These pre-planned strategies developed to protect the public health and safety will be incorporated into the unit emergency procedures and guidelines in accordance with established change processes, and their impact to the design basis capabilities of the unit evaluated under 10 CFR 50.59. The plant Technical Specifications contain the limiting conditions for normal unit operations to ensure that design safety features are available to respond to a design basis accident and direct the required actions to be taken when the limiting conditions are not met. The result of the beyond-design-basis event may place the plant in a condition where it cannot comply with certain Technical Specifications and/or with its Security Plan, and, as such, may warrant invocation of 10 CFR 50.54(x) and/or 10 CFR 73.55(p)

(Reference 2).

Revision 1 (February 15, 2014) developed a document (NEDC-33771 P, Revision 1 (Reference 5)) to supplement the guidance in NEI 12-06 by providing additional BWR-specific information regarding the individual plant response to the ELAP and loss of Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS) events. The document includes identification of the generic event scenario and expected plant response, the associated analytical bases, and recommended actions for performance of a site-specific gap analysis. In the document, GEH utilized the NRC accepted SUPERHEX (SHEX) computer code methodology for BWR's long term containment analysis for the ELAP analysis. As part of this document, a generic BWR 4/Mark I containment nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) evaluation was performed. The BWR 4/Mark I containment analysis is applicable to CNS (a BWR 4, Mark I plant) coping strategy because it supplements the guidance in NEI 12-06 by providing BWR-specific information regarding plant response for core cooling, containment integrity, and SFP cooling. The guidance provided in Reference 5 was utilized as appropriate to develop coping strategies and for prediction of the plant's response.

2. CNS containment integrity for Phases 1 through 3 was evaluated by use of computer code MAAP 4.05 (Reference 7).

Maintain Core Cooling Determine Baseline coping capability with installed coping' modifications not including FLEX modifications, utilizing methods described in Table 3-1 of NEI 12-06:

  • RCIC/HPCI/IC
  • Depressurize RPV for injection with portable injection source a Sustained water source BWR Installed Equipment Phase 1:

Provide a general descriptionof the coping strategies using installed equipment including modificationsthat are proposed to maintain core cooling. Identify methods (RCIC/HPCI/IC) and strategy(ies) utilized to achieve this coping time.

Power Operation, Startup, and Hot Shutdown:

The primary strategy for core cooling is to supply high quality water via RCIC with suction from the ECSTs. Two 50,000-gallon ECSTs are installed for the exclusive use of the RCIC and HPCI systems (Reference 4, Section VI-5.2.7). An additional 80,625 gallons is available in the Main Condenser Hotwells (Reference 6). The hotwells have been evaluated to be available after a seismic event (Reference 7). The combined capacity of the ECSTs, hotwells, and suppression pool is sufficient to support RPV makeup for at least 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> without external makeup sources.

At the initiation of the Beyond-Design-Basis External Event (BDBEE), MSIVs automatically close, feedwater is lost, and Safety Relief Valves (SRVs) automatically cycle to control pressure, causing reactor water level to decrease. When reactor water level reaches -42 inches, HPCI and RCIC automatically start with suction from the ECST (Reference 1, Technical Specification (TS), Table 3.3.5.1-1, Function 3A and TS Table 3.3.5.2-1, Function 1) and operate to inject makeup water to the reactor vessel. This injection recovers the reactor level to the high level setpoint of 54" (Reference 1, Tables 3.3.5.1-1 (Function 3c) and 3.3.5.2-1 (Function 2)). The SRVs will be used to control reactor pressure between approximately 800-1000 psig per EOP-1A RPV Control (Reference 2).

In a typical SBO event (and in the ELAP event), RCIC is able to provide make-up and maintain RPV level. HPCI is secured after one cycle or 10 minutes of operation (Reference 3).

After determination that Emergency Diesel Generators cannot be restarted, the operating crew determines the event is a beyond-design-basis event and anticipate a loss of power for an extended time period at approximately 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> into the event. RCIC is maintained feeding the reactor vessel with suction from the ECST. The RCIC trip signals and isolation signals that could possibly prevent RCIC operation when needed during the ELAP will be overridden in accordance with EOPs (Reference 2). Additionally, the Automatic Depressurization System (ADS) will be either placed in 'inhibit' or closely monitored to prevent automatic initiation of ADS. This is necessary to ensure reactor pressure is not reduced to a pressure which would prevent operation of RCIC.

' Coping modifications consist of modifications installed to increase initial coping time, i.e. generators to preserve vital instruments or increase operating time on battery powered equipment.

Page 10 of 51

CNS Overall Integrated Plan for Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies (FLEX)

Revision 1 (February 15, 2014)

As stated above, the primary method of reactor pressure control is by operation of the SRVs. Operator control of reactor pressure using SRVs require DC control power and pneumatic pressure (supplied by station batteries and the drywell pneumatics system (Reference 4, Section IV-4.6) to open. For Phase 1, the power for the SRVs is supplied by the station batteries. At event initiation the normal pneumatic supply is lost due to loss of power; however, each SRV is provided an accumulator which contains enough pneumatic pressure to operate each valve for multiple open/close cycles. The accumulators for the 2 SRVs associated with Low-Low SET (LLS) are sized to allow 14 cycles of each valve (Reference 4, Section IV-4.6). A plant specific drywell analysis was used to model the effects of a SBO event of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> (Reference 5). The calculation models the operator taking manual action to disable LLS and initiate a manual cooldown of the RPV per EOPs (Reference 2). Twenty-seven individual SRV actuations in LLS mode and manual mode combined are required to maintain pressure control during the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> SBO event. For the ELAP, after 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, the 6 SRVs associated with ADS will be used to control pressure.

The accumulators for the ADS valves are sized for 5 cycles and are credited for operation for approximately 40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> after a SSE (Reference 4, Section IV-4.6). The combined capacity of the accumulators is sufficient to allow operation of the SRVs until Phase 2 when pneumatics will be restored with FLEX equipment.

The torus continues to heat up due to RCIC exhaust and SRV cycling. During the time that torus temperature is increasing operators reduce reactor pressure to a pressure range (200 to 400 psig) which provides margin to the Unsafe Region of the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit (HCTL) curve (Reference 2). When the torus temperature reaches the Unsafe Region of the HCTL, RPV emergency depressurization is required (Reference 2).

In accordance with Emergency Procedure Guidelines and per BWROG guidance, EOPs have been revised to allow termination of RPV emergency depressurization at a pressure that will allow continued RCIC operation, because steam driven RCIC is the sole means of core cooling.

Based on experience derived from Fukushima, the RCIC system can run at a much higher lube oil temperature and suction source temperature than that originally assumed for the operation of RCIC. Additionally, the BWROG is developing a RCIC study (Reference 8) which will allow operation of RCIC at a lube oil temperature of >230°F; CNS will take the necessary actions to allow operation at elevated temperatures. Regarding Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) for RCIC, CNS will perform a site-specific calculation to determine the available NPSH at elevated temperatures. Alternatively, if the analysis determines that adequate NPSH is not available, CNS will revise its strategy and use the water in the suppression pool first, preserving the ECST water into Phase 2 when makeup sources are available with FLEX equipment.

Cold Shutdown and Refueling:

The overall strategy for core cooling for Cold Shutdown and Refueling (Modes 4 and 5, respectively) are generally similar to those for Power Operation, Startup, and Hot Shutdown.

If an ELAP occurs during Cold Shutdown, water in the vessel will heatup. When temperature reaches 212°F, (Hot Shutdown) the vessel will begin to pressurize. During the pressure rise RCIC can be returned to service with suction from the ECST to provide injection flow. When pressure rises to the SRV setpoints, pressure will be controlled by SRVs. The primary and alternate strategies for Cold Shutdown are the same as those for Page 11 of 51

CNS Overall Integrated Plan for Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies (FLEX)

Revision 1 (February 15, 2014)

Power Operation, Startup, and Hot Shutdown as discussed above for core cooling. While the drywell airlock may be open, the amount of steaming will have limited impact on the Reactor Building until Phase 2 manpower is available to shut the airlock and well before Phase 2 actions are required in the Reactor Building airlock area.

During refueling, many variables exist which impact the ability to cool the core. In the event of an ELAP during Refueling, there are no installed plant systems to cool the core available. To accommodate the activities of vessel disassembly and refueling, water levels in the reactor vessel and the reactor cavity are often changed. The most limiting condition is the case in which the reactor head is removed and water level in the vessel is at or below the reactor vessel flange. If an ELAP/LUHS occurs during this condition then, depending on the time after shutdown, boiling in the core may occur quite rapidly.

Deploying and implementation of portable FLEX pumps to supply injection flow must commence immediately from the time of the event. This rapid response is plausible because more personnel are on site during outages to provide the necessary resources.

Guidance will be provided to ensure that sufficient area is available for deployment and that haul paths remain accessible without interference from outage equipment during refueling outages.

During Phase 2, as in Phase 1, reactor core cooling is maintained using RCIC in automatic mode (i.e., with operators controlling the RCIC flow controller) with suction from the ECST.

When ECST grade water becomes depleted, the ECST will be refilled from a yet to be installed on-site well. The well will be hardened, sized for the required makeup capacity and powered by a portable FLEX generator. The water will be pumped to the ECST connection point through hose. Alternatively, makeup for the ECST will be provided from the Missouri River through a series of portable strainers/filters/demineralizers to ensure sufficient water quality. The torus water level will be influenced both by the addition of water from the SRV discharge as well as evaporation through the RHCV which is placed in service at about 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> into the event to maintain containment parameters below design limits (see Maintain Containment response for additional discussion of the RHCV).

During Phase 2, reactor pressure is controlled by operation of SRVs as described in Phase 1 with the use of a portable FLEX pneumatic source.

The 125 VDC Division I batteries are available for approximately 9 hours1.041667e-4 days <br />0.0025 hours <br />1.488095e-5 weeks <br />3.4245e-6 months <br /> without recharging.

Connecting the SAMG DG to Motor Control Center (MCC) LX or TX provides the ability to power Battery Chargers 125 VDC 'C' and 250 VDC 'C' which charge the 125 VDC Division I battery, the 250 VDC Division 1 battery and supply DC loads. The SAMG 480 VAC, 175 kW DG will be connected at approximately 9 hours1.041667e-4 days <br />0.0025 hours <br />1.488095e-5 weeks <br />3.4245e-6 months <br /> and is sized to power two 125/250 VDC Battery Chargers and the DC Busses. Permanently installed cables will be installed from a point near the MCC to the exterior of the Control Building. The deployment area of the SAMG 480 VAC DG powering the 480 V MCC will be located near the Turbine Building (Reference 3). Cables from the generators are run to a connection point on the exterior of the Control Building.

Alternate Strategy:

Providing defense in depth for RCIC, a FLEX pump deployed at the river can provide RPV injection via the normal Residual Heat Removal Service Water (RHRSW) crosstie to the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) injection flow path. Piping will be installed to a connection point to the exterior of the Control Building. RPV pressure will be reduced to below the shutoff head of the FLEX pump after which the RHRSW to RHR flow path is established by opening valves SW-V-1 18 or 119, and SW-V-1 20 (Reference 4) to allow flow into the 24" line to the Low Pressure Coolant Injection valves, RHR-MO-27A and RHR-MO-25A (RHR-MO-27B and RHR-MO-25B for loop B). This provides the flow path into the RPV (References 1 and 2). The FLEX pump will supply water to the connection point via hose and strainer/filter/demineralizer to assure water quality.

As an alternate strategy to power the battery chargers from their MCCs, connection points are planned to be installed on each of the 480V Busses. This will allow connecting power cables from a larger FLEX 480 VAC DG directly to the bus.

For Cold Shutdown and Refueling strategies see the discussion in the Phase 1 section above.

Maintain Core Cooling BWR Portable Equipment Phase 3:

Providea general description of the coping strategies usingphase 3 equipment including modifications that are proposed to maintain core cooling. Identify methods (RCIC/HPCI/IC)and strategy(ies) utilized to achieve this coping time.

For Phase 3, the reactor core cooling strategy is to place one loop of RHR into the Shutdown Cooling (SDC) mode. This will be accomplished by powering up a Division I or II RHR pump from the Class 1E emergency F or G 4160 VAC bus utilizing a 4160 VAC RRC FLEX portable diesel generator (i.e., from the RRC) and supplying the RHR Heat Exchanger with river water with a large portable RRC FLEX pump (i.e., from the RRC) from the Missouri River via the RHRSW piping external connection point.

The 4160 VAC RRC FLEX diesel generator will be capable of carrying approximately 3250 kW load which is sufficient to carry all of the loads on 4160 VAC bus F or G necessary to support the Phase 3 FLEX strategies which includes an RHR pump and its support equipment (i.e., Motor Operator Valves, jockey pump, room coolers, etc.). In order to prevent pipe damage due to water hammer, the Reactor Building Aux Condensate Pump will be repowered to allow proper venting prior to RHR shutdown cooling operation. The primary strategy is provided by RHR A(B) and the secondary strategy is provided by RHR B(A).

Alternative Strategqy:

Alternate means of core cooling can be provided by connecting to and using the opposite division of RHR and RHRSW as that used for the primary function.

An alternate means of providing power to the RHR pumps for SDC operation is to run cable from the 4160 VAC RRC DG directly to the component by connecting either at the switchgear end of the component's power cable or locally at the pump end of the power cable.

Maintain Containment Determine Baseline coping capability with installed coping 2 modifications not including FLEX modifications, utilizing methods described in Table 3-1 of NEI 12-06:

  • Containment Venting or Alternate Heat Removal
  • Hydrogen Igniters (Mark III containments only)

BWR Installed Equipment Phase 1:

Providea general description of the coping strategies using installed equipment including modifications that are proposed to maintain core cooling. Identify methods (containment vent or alternative/Hydrogen Igniters) and strategy(ies) utilized to achieve this coping time.

During Phase 1, containment integrity is maintained by normal design features of the containment, such as the containment isolation valves and RHCV. In accordance with NEI 12-06 (Reference 1), the containment is assumed to be isolated following the event. As the torus heats up and the water begins to boil, the containment will begin to heat up and pressurize. Additionally, the torus level rises due to the transfer of inventory from the ECST to the torus (via RCIC and SRVs). According to BWROG analysis (Reference 2) containment parameters can be controlled within design limits by utilization of the RHCV and venting the containment. In this case, the RHCV is used as implemented per EA-12-050, Reliable Hardened Containment Vents (Reference 4) with control from the Main Control Room (MCR). CNS has performed a Probabilistic Risk Assessment level MAAP analysis to validate the strategy in the BWROG analysis (Reference 3) and will perform additional calculations to establish the exact timing and duration of containment venting.

The containment design pressure is 62 psig (Reference 5, Section V-2.3). Containment pressure limits are not expected to be reached during the event as indicated by MAAP analysis (Reference 3), because the RHCV will be opened prior to exceeding any containment pressure limits.

Phase 1 (i.e., the use of permanently installed plant equipment/features) of containment integrity will be maintained throughout the duration of the event; no non-permanently installed equipment will be required to maintain containment integrity. Therefore, there is no defined end time for the Phase 1 coping period for maintaining containment integrity. An alternative strategy for containment during Phase 1 is not provided, because containment integrity is maintained by the plant's design features.

The strategy in Phase 2 will be to supply makeup water to the SFP at rates greater that the SFP boil off rate using the methods below:

Primary Strategy Method 1:

The first method uses the same FLEX pump used for RPV injection pumping from the raw water source into the RHR (Reference 1) or RHRSW (Reference 2) Systems via the external connection points installed for RPV injection. The RHR to Fuel Pool Cooling (FPC) crosstie valve (FPC-83) is opened to allow injection into the FPC System (Reference 3).

Primary Strategy Method 2:

The second method uses the same FLEX pump as above but will tie into a FPC chemical decon connection at the aforementioned external connection point.

Primary Strategy Method 3:

The third method is the method CNS uses to satisfy the 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2) commitment and uses a portable fire pump through hoses and nozzles to spray water into the fuel pool.

The FLEX pump is rated at 925 gpm and the portable fire pump is rated at 4000 gpm. Per Reference 5 the maximum boiloff rate is 70 gpm.

BWR Installed Equipment Phase I Provide a general description of the coping strategies using installed equipment includingstation modifications that are proposed to maintain and/or supportsafety functions. Identify methods and strategy(ies) utilized to achieve coping times.

Main Control Room Accessibility:

MCR habitability must be maintained for the duration of the ELAP. During the ELAP, some Control Room vital electronics, instrumentation and emergency lighting remain energized from emergency DC power sources. The current CNS calculation for MCR heatup (Reference 1) documents the loss of ventilation analysis for the MCR. The calculation in Reference 1, determined that the MCR temperature quickly rose to about 92°F around 30 minutes into the transient and then slows to a gradual increase toward equilibrium thereafter. The maximum Control Room temperature at the end of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> was determined to be 100.3°F. The heatup rate between hours 3 and 4 is 1.05°F/hour.

Extrapolating this rate out to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> results in a maximum temperature after 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> of 104.5°F. This temperature remains less than 11 0°F which is the assumed maximum temperature for efficient human performance as described in NUMARC 87-00 (Reference 2).

RCIC Room Accessibility:

The RCIC room will have a continuous heat load under ELAP conditions in Phases 1 and 2 of the BDBEE, since RCIC is utilized throughout the event as the primary source of core cooling. The current calculation for RCIC room heat up (Reference 3), determined that the RCIC room temperature reached a maximum of 145.1OF at 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. Per the Reference 4, Section IV-7.5, the RCIC System is designed for continuous operation at a temperature of 148 0 F and 100% relative humidity.

Safety Functions Support BWR Portable Equipment Phase 2 Provide a generaldescription of the coping strategies using on-site portable equipment including station modifications that areproposed to maintain and/or support safety functions. Identify methods and strategy(ies) utilized to achieve coping times.

Main Control Room Habitability:

Phase 2 cooling will consist of the use of portable fans powered from portable diesel generators to draw in outside air and provide circulation within the room and improve the heat removal to maintain lower temperatures. CNS will perform a calculation to determine the appropriate size fan to maintain temperature.

RCIC Room Habitability:

Phase 2 cooling will consist of the use of portable fans powered from portable diesel generators to draw in outside air and provide circulation within the room and improve the heat removal to maintain lower temperatures. CNS will perform a calculation to determine the appropriate size fan to maintain temperature.

For the purposes of NEI 12-06 it is not anticipated that continuous habitability would be required in the RCIC room. If personnel entry is required into the RCIC room then personal protective measures such as ice vests will be taken.

Battery Room Ventilation:

During battery charging operations in Phase 2, ventilation is required in the main battery rooms due to hydrogen generation. Portable ventilation fans are deployed with the deployment of the SAMG DG (Reference 1).

Spent Fuel Pool Area:

Per the NEI 12-06 guidance, a baseline capability for Spent Fuel Cooling is to provide a vent pathway for steam and condensate from the SFP (Reference 2). The FLEX strategy to cope with the pressurization of the refueling floor and prevent buildup of steam and condensation is to open the Reactor Building roof hatch. In order to establish flow of air through the SFP area, it is also necessary to open the Reactor Building heating and ventilation room doors on the 3rd floor or the railroad doors on the ground level.

Safety Functions Support BWR Portable Equipment Phase 3 Provide a generaldescription of the coping strategies usingphase 3 equipment including modifications that areproposed to maintain and/or support safetyfunctions. Identify methods and strategy(ies) utilized to achieve coping times.

Main Control Room Habitability:

The primary and alternate strategies for cooling the MCR are the same in Phase 3 as for Phase 2. However, the power for the MCR Supply Fans, Exhaust Fans and A/C unit will be powered from the 4160 VAC critical bus when the bus is re-energized by the RRC FLEX 4160 VAC DG.

RHR Room Accessibility:

As part of Phase 3 strategies, an RHR pump will be placed into service in order to perform torus cooling and shutdown cooling. This results in heat addition to the RHR pump room due to heat generated by the RHR pump motor as well as heat dissipated from the associated piping and RHR heat exchanger. For long term RHR pump operation, the RHR pump room must be cooled to maintain room temperatures within acceptable ranges (limited by maximum allowable RHR pump motor requirements). This can be accomplished once the RRC 4160 VAC FLEX DG will be connected to the 4160 VAC critical bus at which time the normal Reactor Building heating and ventilation can be restored. This will also restore power to the RHR room cooler; however no cooling water is available due to the loss of Service Water (SW) (ultimate heat sink) cooling to the Reactor Equipment Cooling (REC) System (References 1 and 2). CNS will modify the SW supply to REC to allow cooling water to be supplied from the FLEX pump via the external connection point.

An alternate means of cooling the RHR rooms if the room coolers are not available will be to use portable exhaust fans and hose trunks to exhaust RHR room air to outside the Reactor Building.

Other Support Requirements:

Other areas of support required in Phase 3 are the same as described in the Phase 2 section of Safety Function Support.
