RAI#16 For the SFP level instrumentation backup display located in the radwaste control panel room, please describe the evaluation used to validate the display location can be accessed without unreasonable delay following a BDB event. Include the time available for personnel to access the display as credited in the evaluation, as well as the actual time (e.g., based on walk throughs) that it will take for personnel to access the backup display. Additionally, please include a description of the radiological and environmental conditions on the paths personnel might take. Describe whether the display location remains habitable for radiological, heat and humidity, and other environmental conditions following a BDB event. Describe whether personnel are continuously stationed at the backup display or monitor the display periodically.

ENO Response:

The backup display will be mounted in the Radwaste Control Panel Room Cabinet C104 at the 590 elevation of the Aux. Building. This cabinet is located in Room 121, and can be accessed via Stairwell No. 16 and Door 75, or via Corridor 1 06A through Door 190. Both Stairwell 16 and Corridor 1 06A can be approached from the north, east, and west via Corridor 106. The back-up channel display can be considered promptly accessible, because it can be reached within the 30 minute deployment requirement that exists for portable instrumentation (Section 3.1 of NEI 12-02).

The impact to habitability would be primarily from elevated temperatures, as the C-40 panel room is considered a mild radiation environment. Habitability will be assured by heat stress countermeasures and rotation of personnel to the extent feasible. Personnel will not be continuously stationed at the backup display, it will be monitored periodically. The site FLEX Support Guidelines will provide guidance for personnel to evaluate the room temperature and take actions as necessary. In addition, site procedures already use passive cooling technologies for response personnel.

The FLEX staffing plan has not been finalized at this time. The results of the staffing plan will be included in a future six month status report.

If necessary, portable radios will be used to communicate with decision makers.

The calibration and test procedures developed by MOHR are provided in the technical manuals developed by MOHR. See bridging document Topics #10, 19, & 20 (Section 10 of this status report). The objectives are to measure system performance, determine if there is a deviation from normal tolerances, and return the system to normal tolerances.

Diagnostic procedures developed by MOHR are provided as automated and semi-automated routines in system software alerting the operator to abnormal deviation in selected system parameters such as battery voltage, 4-20 mA loop continuity, and Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) waveform of the transmission cable. The technical objective of the diagnostic procedures is to identify system conditions that require operator attention to ensure continued reliable liquid level measurement. Manual diagnostic procedures are also provided in the event that further workup is determined to be necessary.

Maintenance procedures developed by MOHR are provided in the technical manual. These allow a technician trained in EFP-IL system maintenance to ensure that system functionality is maintained.

An operation procedure will provide sufficient instructions for operation and use of the system.

ENO procedures will be developed in accordance with the vendor manuals provided by MOHR and ENO procedures and processes.

FLEX Support Guidelines will provide sufficient instructions for use of the SFPI during a beyond design basis external event.

Humidity in the Control Room and C-40 Panel Room are normally regulated by the HVAC system at 50% (Reference 43). During an extended loss of AC power, the HVAC system is no longer available.

Assuming the Control Room and C-40 Panel Room remain isolated from outside air, the temperature is expected to increase and the humidity is expected to decrease because the heat loads are dominated by the sensible heat of electrical equipment.

Therefore, the maximum temperatures of 121°F for the Control Room (Reference 16) and 110°F for the C-40 Panel Room (Reference 36) at a humidity below 50% is bounded by the 55°C (131°F) and 50 percent RH test case presented in MOHR Report #

1-0410-1 (Reference 4).

In the event outside air is introduced to the Control Room or C-40 Panel Room, due to open doors or HVAC system connections to other rooms, ASH RAE (Reference 41, Chapter 14 Appendix:

Design Conditions for Selected Locations) defines the 0.4% dehumidification condition to be 81.4 °F db, 73.0 °F dew point, and 75% RH for Kalamazoo, Michigan. Similarly, 85.1 °F db, 76.2 °F wb, and 66% RH is defined for a 0.4%
