Chapter 14 - Technical Specifications Introduction 14a
2.1 INTRODUCTION
The format and content of the technical specifications will be written with the guidance provided in American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Nuclear Society (ANS) 15.1, The Development of Technical Specifications for Research Reactors (ANSI/ANS, 2007). The technical specifications for non-power reactors include the categories in 10 CFR 50.36 for production and utilization facilities.
Normal operation of the SHINE facility within the limits of technical specifications will not result in off-site radiation exposure in excess of 10 CFR 20 guidelines.

Chapter 14 - Technical Specifications Safety Limits and Limiting Safety System Settings 14a2.2 SAFETY LIMITS AND LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS Safety limits (SLs) will be placed on important process variables as necessary to reasonably preserve the integrity of the primary system boundary (PSB) and prevent the uncontrolled release of radioactivity. For the SHINE IF, the PSB is the target solution vessel (TSV), TSV dump tank, TSV off-gas system (TOGS), and associated piping and components. SLs may also be established for the character and quality of the target solution.
Limiting safety system settings (LSSSs) are settings for automatic protective devices related to those variables having significant safety functions. These settings ensure that automatic protective action will correct the abnormal situation before an SL is exceeded.
Refer to Table 14a2-1 for the SLs and LSSSs associated with the PSB. The justifications for the variables chosen are given in the section/subsection listed in the Table 14a2-1.
SHINE Medical Technologies 14a2-3 Rev. 0
Chapter 14 - Technical Specifications Limiting Conditions for Operation 14a2.3 LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION Limiting conditions of operations (LCOs) are derived from the safety analyses and are implemented administratively or by control and monitoring circuitry to ensure safe operation of the irradiation facility. The LCOs are the lowest functional capability or performance level required for safe operation of the irradiation facility.
Table 14a2-1 shows LCOs associated with the irradiation facility. The justifications for the variables chosen are given in the sections listed in the table.

Chapter 14 - Technical Specifications Introduction 14b TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF PROCESSES OUTSIDE THE IRRADIATION FACILITY This section encompasses the technical specifications for the processes involving special nuclear material (SNM), radioisotopes, and chemicals outside the IF produced from licensed materials.
In accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.34 (a)(5), this section identifies the variables and conditions that will likely be the subjects of technical specifications for the SHINE facility.
These may change with the operating license application. These variables and conditions are based on the preliminary design of the SHINE facility. The technical specifications will be submitted with the operating license application.
These proposed technical specifications have been formulated on the premise that this material presents a sound framework upon which a final, complete set of specifications can be developed with the operating license application.
14b.1 INTRODUCTION The format and content of the Technical Specifications will be written with the guidance provided in ANSI/ANS 15.1 (ANSI/ANS 2007), NUREG-1537, and the Final ISG Augmenting NUREG-1537.

SHINE Medical Technologies 14b-1 Rev. 1
Chapter 14 - Technical Specifications Safety Limits and Limiting Safety System Settings 14b.2 SAFETY LIMITS AND LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS 14b.2.1 SAFETY LIMITS FOR PROCESSING IRRADIATED SPECIAL NUCLEAR MATERIAL OUTSIDE OF THE REACTOR For irradiated SNM outside of the TSV, SLs are derived for criticality accident prevention based on the Nuclear Criticality Safety Program, and also from an Integrated Safety Analysis (ISA).
Limits are specified, using the double-contingency principle, to avoid a criticality accident. Limits are set with a conservative margin.
For irradiated SNM outside of the TSV, appropriate limits are imposed pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1) to ensure that fission products will be controlled to prevent excessive releases from the containment components, systems, or structures, particularly those structures, systems, and components containing large inventories of byproduct material.
14b.2.2 SAFETY LIMITS FOR PROCESSING UNIRRADIATED SPECIAL NUCLEAR MATERIAL OUTSIDE OF THE IRRADIATION FACILITY Limits are specified, using the double-contingency principle, to avoid a criticality accident. Limits are set with a conservative margin.
14b.2.3 SAFETY LIMITS FOR RADIOCHEMICAL PROCESSING Safety limits for radiochemical processing are developed to maintain operations within limits pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36 to protect the staff and the public. The amount of radiation is limited so as not to exceed the shielding and confinement capabilities of the systems and components in which the materials are processed or stored.
14b.2.4 SAFETY LIMITS FOR CHEMICAL PROCESSING Safety limits for chemical processing with hazardous chemicals that are conducted coincident to operations with SNM or radioactive material are developed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.36.
14b.2.5 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS For each process variable or parameter for which a SL is specified, and for which monitoring instruments are used, a protective operating limit is set to avoid exceeding the SL. This LSSS is calculated to provide a conservative margin below the SL and to account for overall measurement uncertainty, operating characteristics of control systems, and accuracy of control instrumentation. LSSSs will be established, as much as possible, to ensure adequate safety margins for each of the processes described above.
Refer to Table 14a2-1 for the SLs and LSSSs associated with the processes outside the irradiation facility.

14b.3.1 PRIMARY PROCESS COMPONENTS AND SYSTEMS Processing SSCs and procedures that are designed and constructed to ensure that processing is conducted safely will have LCOs established for each of the processes defined in Section 14b.2 above.
14b.3.2 CONTAINMENT AND CONFINEMENT A confinement system is required as a result of the ISA and is defined as an LCO, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1).
14b.3.3 VENTILATION SYSTEMS The ISA prescribes the need for certain ventilation configurations, they are listed as an LCO pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1).
14b.3.4 EMERGENCY ELECTRICAL POWER The ISA prescribes the need for emergency electrical power, the power supply is listed as an LCO pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1).
