Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Introduction In 1989, the NRC issued Generic Letter 89-16, "Installation of a Hardened Wetwell Vent," to all licensees of BWRs with Mark I containments to encourage licensees to voluntarily install a hardened wetwell vent. In response, licensees installed a hardened vent pipe from the wetwell to some point outside the secondary containment envelope (usually outside the reactor building). Some licensees also installed a hardened vent branch line from the drywell. On March 19, 2013, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Commissioners directed the staff per Staff Requirements Memorandum (SRM) for SECY 0157 to require licensees with Mark I and Mark II containments to "upgrade or replace the reliable hardened vents required by Order EA-12-050 with a containment venting system designed and installed to remain functional during severe accident conditions." In response, the NRC issued Order EA-13-109, Issuance of Order to Modifying Licenses with Regard to Reliable Hardened Containment Vents Capable of Operation Under Severe Accidents, June 6, 2013. The Order (EA-13-109) requires that licensees of BWR facilities with Mark I and Mark II containment designs ensure that these facilities have a reliable hardened vent to remove decay heat from the containment, and maintain control of containment pressure within acceptable limits following events that result in the loss of active containment heat removal capability while maintaining the capability to operate under severe accident (SA) conditions resulting from an Extended Loss of AC Power (ELAP). The Order requirements are applied in a phased approach where:

      *  "Phase I involves upgrading the venting capabilities from the containment wetwell to provide reliable, severe accident capable hardened vents to assist in preventing core damage and, if necessary, to provide venting capability during severe accident conditions." (Completed "no later than startup from the second refueling outage that begins after June 30, 2014, or June 30, 2018, whichever comes first.")
     *   "Phase 2 involves providing additional protections for severe accident conditions through installation of a reliable, severe accident capable drywell vent system or the development of a reliable containment venting strategy that makes it unlikely that a licensee would need to vent from the containment drywell during severe accident conditions." (Completed "no later than startup from the first refueling outage that begins after June 30, 20 I 7, or June 30, 2019, whichever comes first.")

The NRC provided an acceptable approach for complying with Order EA-13-1 09 through Interim Staff Guidance (JLD-ISG-2013-02 issued in November 2013 and JLD-ISG-2015-01 issued in April2015 ). The ISG endorses the compliance approach presented in NEI 13-02 Revisions 0 and I, Compliance with Order EA-13-109, Severe Accident Reliable Hardened Containment Vents, with clarifications. Except in those cases in which a licensee proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with Order EA-13-1 09, the NRC staff will use the methods described in the ISGs to evaluate licensee compliance as presented in submittals required in Order EA-13-1 09. The Order also requires submittal of an overall integrated plan which will provide a description of how the requirements of the Order will be achieved. This document provides the Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) for complying with Order EA-13-109 using the methods described in NEI 13-02 and endorsed by NRC JLD-ISG-2013-02 and JLD-ISG-2015-01. Six month progress reports will be provided consistent with the requiremenfs of Order EA 13-109. 1 OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 2 of66 December 6, 2015

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan The submittals required are:

  • OIP for Phase I of EA-13-1 09 was required to be submitted by Licensees to the NRC by June 30, 2014. The NRC requires periodic (6 month) updates for the HCVS actions being taken.

The first update for Phase I was due December 2014, with the second due June 2015.

  • OIP for Phase 2 of EA-13-1 09 is required to be submitted by Licensees to the NRC by December 31, 2015. It is expected the December 2015 six month update for Phase 1 will be combined with the Phase 2 OIP submittal by means of a combined Phase I and 2 OIP.
  • Thereafter, the 6 month updates will be for both the Phase I and Phase 2 actions until complete, consistent with the requirements of Order EA-13-109.

Note: At the Licensee's option, the December 2015 six month update for Phase I may be independent of the Phase 2 OIP submittal, but will require separate six month updates for Phase 1 and 2 until each phase is in compliance. The Plant venting actions for the EA-13-1 09, Phase 1, severe accident capable venting scenario can be summarized by the following:

  • The HCVS will be initiated via manual action from the Main Control Room (MCR)(some plants have a designated Primary Operating Station (POS) that will be treated as the main operating location for this order) or Remote Operating Station (ROS) at the appropriate time based on procedural guidance in response to plant conditions from observed or derived symptoms.
  • The vent will utilize Containment Parameters of Pressure and Level from the MCR instrumentation to monitor effectiveness of the venting actions.
  • The vent operation will be monitored by HCVS valve position, temperature and effluent radiation levels.
  • The HCVS motive force will be monitored and have the capacity to operate for 24 hours with installed equipment. Replenishment of the motive force will be by use of portable equipment once the installed motive force is exhausted.
  • Venting actions will be capable of being maintained for a sustained period of up to 7 days or a shorter time if justified.

The Phase 2 actions can be summarized as follows:

  • Utilization of Severe Accident Water Addition (SAWA) to initially inject water into the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) or Drywell.
  • Utilization of Severe Accident Water Management (SAWM) to control injection and Suppression Pool level to ensure the HCVS (Phase 1) wetwell vent (SAWV) will remain functional for the removal of the decay heat from the core from containment.
  • Ensure that the decay heat can be removed from the containment for seven (7) days using the HCVS or describe the alternate method(s) to remove decay heat from the containment from the time the HCVS is no longer functional until alternate means of decay heat removal are established that make it unlikely the drywell vent will be required for containment pressure control.
  • The SAWA and SAWM actions will be manually activated and controlled from areas that are accessible during severe accident conditions.

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan

  • Parameters measured should be Drywell pressure, Suppression Pool level, SAWA flowrate and the HCVS parameters listed above.
  • Alternatively SA WA and a Severe Accident Capable Drywell Vent (SADV) strategy may be implemented to meet Phase 2 of Order EA 109.

Part 1: General Integrated Plan Elements and Assum ptions Extent to which the guidance, J LD-ISG-2013-02, JLD-ISG-2015-01 and NEI 13-02 (Revision 1), are being followed . Identify any deviations. Include a description of any alternatives to the guidance. A technical justification and basis for the alternative needs to be provided. This will likely require a pre-meeting with the NRC to review the alternative. Ref: JLD-ISG-2013-02, JLD-ISG-2015-01 Compliance will be attained for E.l. Hatch Units 1&2 (Plant Hatch) with no known deviations to the guidelines in JLD-ISG-2013-02, JLD-ISG-2015-01 and NEI 13-02 for each phase as follows:

  • The Hardened Containment Vent System (HCVS) will be comprised of installed and portable equipmen t and operating guidance:
  • Severe Accident Wetwell Vent (SAWV) - Permanently installed vent from the Suppression Pool to the meteorological stack
  • Severe accident Water Addition (SAW A)- A combination of permanently installed and portable equipment to provide a means to add water to the RPV following a severe accident and monitor system and plant conditions.
  • Severe Accident Water Management (SA WM) strategies and guidance for controllin g the water addition to the RPV for the sustained operating period. (reference attachment 2. l.D)
  • Phase 1 (wetwell): by the startup from the second refueling outage that begins after June 30, 2014, or June 30, 2018, whichever comes first. Currently scheduled for l st Quarter 2017 (Unit 2), lst Quarter 2018 (Unit 1)
  • Phase 2 (alternate strategy): by the startup from the fi rst refuelin g outage that begins after June 30, 2017 or June 30, 2019, whichever comes first. Currently scheduled for 1st Quarter 2019 (Unit 2), 1st Quarter 2018 (Unit 1)

If deviations are identified at a later date, then the deviations will be communicated in a future 6 month update following identification.

Provide key assumptions associated with implementation of HCVS Phase I and Phase 2 Actions Ref: NEI 13-02, Revision 1, Section 2 NEI 12-06 Revision 0 Mark 1111 Generic EA-13-1 09 Phase 1 and Phase 2 Related Assumptions: Applicable EA- 12-049 assumptions: 049- 1. Assumed initial plant conditions are as identified in NEI 12-06 section 3.2.1.2 items 1 and 2. 049-2. Assumed initial conditions are as identified in NEI 12-06 section 3.2.1.3 items 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8 049-3. Assumed reactor transient boundary conditions are as identified in NEI 12-06 section 3.2.1.4 items 1, 2, 3 and 4 049-4. No additional events or failures are assumed to occur immediately prior to or during the event, including security events except for failure of RCIC or HPCI. (Reference NEI 12-06, section 3.2.1.3 item 9) 049-5 . At Time=O the event is initiated and all rods insert and no other event beyond a common site ELAP is occurring at any or all of the units. (NEI 12-06, section 3.2.1.3 item 9 and 3.2.1.4 item 1-4) 049-6. At 48 minutes (time sensitive at a time greater than 1 hour) an ELAP is declared and actions begin as defined in EA-12-049 compliance 049-7. DC power and distribution can be credited for the duration determined per the EA-12-049 (FLEX) methodology for battery usage, (greater than 12 hours with a calculation limiting value of 13.35 hours). The power supply scheme for the HCVS shall be in accordance with EA-13-109 and the applicable guidance. (NEI 12-06, section 3.2.1.3 item 8) 049-8. Deployment resources are assumed to begin arriving at hour 6 and fully staffed by 24 hours 049-9. All activities associated with plant specific EA-12-049 FLEX strategies that are not specific to implementation of the HCVS, including such items as debris removal, communication, notification, SFP level and makeup, security response, opening doors for cooling, and initiating conditions for the event, can be credited as previously evaluated for FLEX. (refer to assumption 109-02 below for clarity on SAWA)(HCVS-FAQ-11) Applicable EA-13-1 09 generic assumptions : I 09-01. Site response activities associated with EA-13-109 actions are considered to have no access limitations associated with radiological impacts while RPV level is above 2/3 core height (core damage is not expected). This is further referenced in HCVS-FAQ-12. 109-02. Portable equipment can supplement the installed equipment after 24 hours provided the portable equipment credited meets the criteria applicable to the HCVS . An example is use of FLEX portable air supply e~uipment 1 that is credited to recharge air lines for HCVS components after 24 hours. The FLEX portable air supply used must be demonstrate d to meet the "SA Capable" criteria that are defined in NEI 13-02 Section 4.2.4.2 and OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 5 of 66 December 6, 2015

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 1: General Integrated Plan Elements and Assumptions Appendix D Section D.l.3. This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SAW A/SAWM because SAW A equipment needs to be connected and placed in service within 8 hours from the time of the loss of RPV injection. (Reference HCVS-FAQ-12) I09-03. SFP level is maintained with either on-site or off-site resources such that the SFP does not contribute to the analyzed source term (Reference HCVS-FAQ-07). I 09-04. Existing containment components design and testing values are governed by existing plant primary containment criteria (e.g., Appendix J) and are not subject to the testing criteria from NEI 13-02 (reference HCVS-FAQ-05 and NEI 13-02 section 6.2.2). 109-05. Classical design basis evaluations and assumptions are not required when assessing the operation of the HCVS. The reason this is not required is that the order postulates an unsuccessful mitigation of an event such that an ELAP progresses to a severe accident with ex-vessel core debris which classical design basis evaluations are intended to prevent. (Reference NEI 13-02 section 2.3.1 ). I 09-06. HCVS manual actions that require minimal operator steps and can be performed in the postulated thermal and radiological environment at the location of the step(s) (e.g., load stripping, control switch manipulation, valving-in nitrogen bottles) are acceptable to obtain HCVS venting dedicated functionality. (reference HCVS-FAQ-0 I) This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SAW A/SA WM because SAWA equipment needs to be connected and placed in service within 8 hours from the time of the loss of RPV injection and will require more than minimal operator action. I 09-07. HCVS dedicated equipment is defined as vent process elements that are required for the HCVS to function in an ELAP event that progresses to core melt ex-vessel. (reference HCVS-FAQ-02 and White Paper HCVS-WP-0 I). This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SAWA/SA WM because SAWA equipment is not dedicated to HCVS but shared to support FLEX functions. This is further addressed in HCVS-FAQ-11. I 09-08. Use of MAAP Version 4 or higher provides adequate assurance of the plant conditions (e.g., RPV water level, temperatures, etc.) assumed for Order EA- 13-109 BDBEE and SA HCVS operation. (reference FLEX MAAP Endorsement ML13190A201) Additional analysis using RELAP5/MOD 3, GOTHIC, PCFLUD, LOCADOSE and SHIELD are acceptable methods for evaluating environmental conditions in areas of the plant provided the specific version utilized is documented in the analysis. MAAP Version 5 was used to develop EPRI Technical Report 3002003301 to support drywell temperature response to SAWA under severe accident conditions. 109-09. NRC Published Accident evaluations (e.g. SOARCA, SECY-12-0157, and NUREG 1465) as related to Order EA-13-109 conditions are acceptable as references. (Reference NEI 13-02 section 8). 109-10. Permanent modifications installed or planned per EA-12-049 are assumed implemented and may be credited for use in EA I 09 Order response. 109-11. This Overall Integrated Plan is based on Emergency Operating Procedure changes consistent with EPG/SAGs Revision 3 as incorporated per the sites EOP/SAMG procedure change process. This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SA WM because SA WM requires changes to the EPG/SAGs per approved issue from the BWROG Emergency Procedures Committee. 109-12. Under the postulated scenarios of order EA-13-109 the Control Room is adequately protected from excessive radiation dose due to its distance and shielding from the reactor (per General Design Criterion (GDC) I 9 in I OCFR50 Appendix A) and no further evaluation of its use as the preferred HCVS control location is required provided that the HCVS routi~g is a sufficient distance away from the MCR or is shielded tp minimize impact to the MCR dose. In addition, adequate protective clothing and respiratory protection is available if required to address contamination issues.

The suppression poollwetwell of a BWR Mark 1/11 containment is considered to be bounded by assuming a saturated environment for the duration of the event response because of the water/steam interactions. I 09- 14. RPV depressurization is directed by the EPGs in all cases prior to entry into the SAGs (reference NEI 13-02 Rev I section 1.1.3) 109- 15 . The Severe Accident impacts is assumed on one unit only due to the site compliance with NRC Order EA-12-049, However, each BWR MK I and II under the assumptions of NRC Order EA- 13-1 09 ensure the capability to protect containment exists for each unit. (HCVS-FAQ-10) Plant Specific HCVS Related Assumptions/Characteristics: HNP-1. The main stack at Plant Hatch can handle the HCVS flow from both units simultaneously . Once outside the reactor building, effluent lines slope downward toward main stack such that effluent is unlikely to accumulate and create a hot spot. HNP-2. All load stripping is accomplished within one hour and fifteen minutes of event initiation and will occur below the core area at locations not impacted by a radiological event. HNP-3. The rupture disk will be manually breached within 7.3 hours of event initiation if required for anticipatory venting during an ELAP. HNP-4. All load stripping activities performed are located in the control building either at lower elevations (EL 130) or in the MCR. HNP-5. The Plant layout of buildings and structures are depicted in the following figures 1-1, 1-2 and 1-3. Note the Main Control Room is located on the turbine deck elevation. The Control Building has substantial structural walls and features independent of the Reactor Building. The vent routing is indicated on figure 1-1.

Initial operator actions will be completed by plant personnel and will include the capability for remote-manual initiation from the HCVS control station. A list of the remote manual actions performed by plant personnel to open the HCVS vent path can be found in the following table (2-1 ). The reliable operation of HCVS will be met because HCVS meets the seismic requirements identified in NEI 13-02 and will be powered by DC buses with motive force supplied to HCVS valves from installed accumulators and portable nitrogen storage bottles. A HCVS Extended Loss of AC Power (ELAP) Failure Evaluation table, which shows alternate actions that can be performed, is included in Attachment 4.

A timeline was developed to identify required operator response times and potential environmental constraints. This timeline is based upon the following three cases:

1. Case 1 is based upon the action response times developed for FLEX when utilizing anticipatory venting in a BDBEE without core damage.
2. Case 2 is based on a SECY-12-0157 long term station blackout (LTSBO) (or ELAP) with failure of RCIC I after a black start where failure occurs because of subjectiyety assuming over injection.
3. Case 3 is based on NUREG-1935 (SOARCA) results for a prolonged SBO (or ELAP) with the loss ofRCIC case without black start.

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 2: Boundary Conditions for Wet Well Vent The followin g is a discussion of time constraints identified in Attachment 2A for the 3 timeline cases identified above

  • At 7.3 Hours, Initiate use of Hardened Containment Vent System (HCVS) per site procedures to maintain containment parameters below design limits and within the limits that allow continued use of RCIC for mitigation in a BDBEE -- The rel iable operation of HCVS will be met because HCVS meets the seismic requirements identified in NEI 13-02 and will be powered by DC buses with motive force supplied to HCVS valves from installed accumulators and portable nitrogen storage bottles. Critical HCVS controls and instruments associated with containment will be DC powered and operated from the MCR or a Remote Operating Station on each unit.

The DC power for HCVS will be available as long as the HCVS is required. Station batteries will provide power for greater than 12 hours, HCVS battery capacity will be available to extend past 24 hours. In addition, when available Phase 2 FLEX Diesel Generator (DG) can provide power before battery life is exhausted. Thus initiation of the HCVS from the MCR or the Remote Operating Station within 7.3 hours is acceptable because the actions can be performed any time after declaration of an ELAP ( 1 hour) until the venting is needed at 7.3 hours for BDBEE venting. This action can also be performed for SA HCVS operation which occur at a time further removed from an ELAP declaration as shown in Attachment 2A.

  • At 12 hours, based on battery depletion, the power supply will be swapped from station batteries to dedicated HCVS batteries to ensure power to the inverters. The DC power for HCVS will be available as long as the HCVS is required. Station batteries will provide power for greater than 12 hours, HCVS battery capacity will be available to extend past 24 hours. In addition, when available, Phase 2 FLEX Diesel Generator (DG) can provide power before battery life is exhausted. A power monitor will be available at the MCR or ROS to dictate when transfer from the Station Batteries to the dedicated HCVS battery capacity is needed. Margin will be established such that the HCVS dedicated battery capacity exceeds 14 hours.
  • At 24 Hours, temporary generators will be installed and connected to the pigtail to power up battery chargers to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments; time sensitive at a time greater than 25 hours (>12 hour Station Battery life plus> 14 hour dedicated HCVS battery capacity). Current battery (station service plus dedicated HCVS) durations are calculated to last greater than 24 hours. DG will be deployed beginning at approximately 8-10 hour time frame (Reference FLEX OIP). Within two (2) hours later the DG will be in service.

Thus the DGs will be available to be placed in service at any point after 24 hours as required to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments. DGs will be maintained in on-site FLEX storage buildings. DGs will be transferred and staged via haul routes and staging areas evaluated for impact from external hazards applicable to Plant Hatch. Modifications will be implemented to facilitate the connections and operational actions required to supply power within 10 hours which is acceptable because the actions can be performed any time after declaration of an ELAP until the repowering of the station service batteries is needed at greater than 24 hours for HCVS operation. For Phase 2 applicability, the 8-10 hours will change to 6-7 hours, since it provides power to the SAWA Valves, and will be validated by the Phase 2 Verification and Validation activity, thus providing power by 7 hours,

  • At >24 hours installed nitrogen bottles will be valved-in to supplement the air accumulator tanks. The nitrogen bottles (three provided) can be replenished one at a time leaving the other 2 supplying the HCVS. This can be performed at any time prior to depletion of the accumulators which is expected to last greater than 24 hours assuming a minimum of 8 HCVS cycles. Thus 24 hours ensures adequate capacity is maintained so this time constraint is not limiting.
  • At >24 hours, the dedicated HCVS power supplies will be swapped from the dedicated HCVS batteries to the normal configuration powered by portable DGs. Margin will be established such that the total HCVS battery capacity exceeds 25 hourl OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 12 of 66 December 6, 2015

  • At <7.3 hours, the rupture disc will be manually breached using the argon tank station in the reactor building. This is not an environmental constraint because the breaching of the rupture disc is not required for events where anticipatory venting at a value less than PSP (Pressure Suppression Pressure)/PCPL (Primary Containment Pressure Limit) is initiated since the rupture set point will be changed in response to NRC Order EA- I 2-049 to a value Jess than or equal to PSP.
  • At 12 hours, based on battery depletion, power supply will be swapped from station batteries to dedicated HCVS batteries to ensure power to the inverters. Access to the transfer switch will be in the control building which is separated from the Reactor Building by substantial walls and air space (refer to figure I -1).

  • At >24 hours, installed nitrogen bottles will be valved-in to supplement the air accumulator supply as stated for the related time constraint item. Nitrogen bottles and manual tie-in valve will be located in an area that is accessible to operators in the Control Building or yard area.

[OPEN ITEM 2: Determine location of back-uQ nitrogen bottles- Nitrogen Bottles will be located in the Control Building]

  • At >24 Hours, temporary generators will be installed and connected to the pigtail to power up battery chargers using a portable DG to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments -Time critical at a time greater than 25 hours for HCVS operation and at 8 hours for SAWA operation (refer to section 3. I of this OIP). Current battery durations are calculated to last greater than 26 hours. DG will be staged beginning at approximately 8-10 hour time frame. Within two (2) hours of deployment the DG will be in service. Thus the DGs will be available to be placed in service at any point after 24 hours as required to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments. The connections, location of the DG and access for refueling will be located in an area that is accessible to operators in the Control Building or in the yard area because the HCVS vent pipe is underground once it leaves the Reactor Building .

Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 2: Boundary Conditions for Wet Well Vent Use of instruments and supporting components with known operating principles that are supplied by manufacturers with commercial quality assurance programs, such as IS09001. The procurement specifications shall include the seismic requirements and/or instrument design requiremellfs, and specify the need for commercial design standards and testing under seismic loadings consistent with design basis values at the instrument locations. Demonstration of the seismic reliability of the instrumentation through methods that predict pe1jormance by analysis, qualification testing under simulated seismic conditions, a combination of testing and analysis, or the use of experience data. Guidance for these is based on sections 7, 8, 9, and 10 of IEEE Standard 344-2004, "IEEE Recommended Practice for Seismic Qualification of Class IE Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations," or a substantially similar industrial standard could be used. Demonstration that the instrumentation is substantially similar in design to instrumentation that has been previously tested to seismic loading levels in accordance with the plant design basis at the location where the instrument is to be installed (g-levels and frequency ranges). Such testing and analysis should be similar to that pelformedf or the plant licensing basis. Vent Size and Basis The HCVS wetwell path is designed for venting steam/energy at a nominal capacity of I% of 2804 MWt thermal power at pressure of 56 psig. This pressure is the lower of the containment design pressure (56 psig) and the PCPL value (62 psig). The size of the wetwell portion of the HCVS is ;::: 18 inches in diameter which provides adequate capacity to meet or exceed the Order criteria. Vent Capacity The greater than I% decay heat removal capacity at Plant Hatch assumes that the suppression pool pressure suppression capacity is sufficient to absorb the decay heat generated during the first 3 hours. The vent would then be able to prevent containment pressure from increasing above the containment design pressure. As part of the detailed design, the duration of suppression pool decay heat absorption capability will be confirmed. [OPEN ITEM-4: Confirm suppression pool heat capacity] Vent Path and Discharge The existing HCVS vent path at Hatch consists of a wetwell and drywell vent on each unit. The drywell vent exits the Primary Containment into the Reactor Building and proceeds down to the torus bay. Wetwell and drywell vent piping merges into a common header in the torus bay. Vent path for both wetwell and drywell exits the reactor building through an underground pipe. This pipe travels approximately 500 feet from both units and combines in a mixing chamber at the base of the main stack. All effluents exit out the main stack. The HCVS discharge path uses the main stack. Power and Pneumatic Supply Sources All electrical power required for operation of HCVS components will be routed through two Inverters, one for each electrical division. These inverters will be sized at 7.5 kW each and will convert DC power from installed batteries into AC power for the end users (instruments, solenoid valves, etc.). Battery power will be provided by the existing station service batteries for the first 12 hours following the ELAP event. At about 12 hours, power can be transferred to the HCVS dedicated batteries t~at will supply power for an additional time of> 12 hours. At ~4 hours, power will transfer back to the normal configuration, at which time it is expected that FLEX generators will be in service to power the DC OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 15 of 66 December 6, 2015

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 2: Boundary Conditions for Wet Well Vent bus. Pneumatic power for the HCVS air-operated valves (AOVs) is normally provided by the non-interruptible air system. Following an ELAP event, the non-interruptible air system is lost, and normal backup from installed nitrogen supply tanks is isolated. Therefore, for the first 24 hours, pneumatic force will be supplied from newly installed air accumulator tanks. These tanks will supply the required motive force to those HCVS valves needed to maintain flow through the HCVS effluent piping. After the first 24 hours, backup nitrogen provided by nitrogen supply bottles will be manually valved-in and replenished as needed. I. The HCVS flow path valves are air-operated valves (AOV) with air-to-open and spring-to-shut (i.e., the wetwell containment isolation valves and the HCVS inlet isolation valve). Opening the valves requires energizing an AC powered solenoid operated valve (SOY) and providing motive air/gas. The detailed design will provide a permanently installed power source and motive air/gas supply adequate for the first 24 hours. Beyond the first 24 hours, FLEX generators will be used to maintain battery power to the HCVS components. The initial stored motive air/gas will allow for a minimum of eight valve operating cycles for the HCVS valve for the first 24 hours.

2. Following the initial 24 hour period, additional motive force will be supplied from nitrogen bottles that will be staged at a gas cylinder rack located (in the control building) such that radiological impacts are not an issue. Additional bottles can be brought in as needed.
3. An a sessment of temperature and radiological conditions will be performed to ensure that operating personnel can safely access and operate controls at the ROS based on time constraints listed in Attachment 2A.

4. All permanently installed HCVS equipment, including any connections required to supplement the HCVS operation during an ELAP (i.e., electric power, N2/air) will be located in areas reasonably protected from defined hazards listed in Part 1 of this report.
5. All valves required to open the flow path or valves that require manual operation to be closed to prevent diversion or cross-flow into other systems/units will be designed for remote manual operation following an ELAP, such that the primary means of valve manipulation does not rely on use of a hand wheel, reach-rod or similar means that requires close proximity to the valve (reference HCVS-FAQ-03)._Any supplemental connections will be pre-engineered to minimize man-power resources and address environmental concerns.

Required portable equipment will be reasonably protected from screened in hazards listed in Part 1 of this OIP.

6. Access to the locations described above will not require temporary ladders or scaffolding.

Location of Control Panels The HCVS design allows initiating and then operating and monitoring the HCVS from the Main Control Room (MCR) or the Remote Operating Station (ROS). The MCR location is protected from adverse natural phenomena and is the normal control point for HCVS operation and Plant Emergency Response actions. The final location of the ROS is the 147' elevation of the Control Building, one floor below the elevation of the MCR .

I I, the HCVS must be designed such that it is able to either provide assurance that oxygen cannot enter and mix with flammable gas in the HCVS (so as to form a combustible gas mixture), or it must be able to accommodate the dynamic loading resulting from a combustible gas detonation. Several configurations are available which will support the former (e.g., purge, mechanical isolation from outside air, etc.) or the latter (design of potentially affected portions of the system to withstand a detonation relative to pipe stress and support structures). [OPEN ITEM 6: State which approach or combination of approaches Plant Hatch decides to take to address the control of flammable gases- Plant Hatch plans to use option I of the endorsed white paper HCVS-WP-03 and power up the mixing chamber fan in the base of the metrological stack.] Unintended Cross Flow of Vented Fluids The HCVS uses the Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS) containment isolation valves for containment isolation. These containment isolation valves are AOVs that are air-to-open and spring-to-shut. An SOY must be energized to allow the motive air to open the valve. Specifically: I. The PCIS control circuit will be used during all "design basis" operating modes including all design basis transients and accidents.

2. Cross flow potential exists between the HCVS and the Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS). Resolution involves evaluation of SGTS isolation valve leakage for both inlet and outlet valves (referred to as boundary valves), as both interface with the HCVS. This evaluation will follow the testing criteria presented in NEI HCVS-FAQ -05 . If necessary, these valves will be replaced with leak-tight valves. Testing and maintenance will be performed to ensure that the valves remain leak-tight.

[OPEN ITEM 7: Evaluate SGTS valve leakage utilizing criteria from NEI HCVS-FAQ -05 .]

3. An additional cross-flow avenue exists between the HCVS of the two units and other connected systems at the mixing chamber in the shared Main Stack. With the Main Stack being open to the atmosphere, there is no motive force to push effluent from the mixing chamber back to the plant, thus it is assumed this avenue of cross flow is not a reasonable assumption, since the buoyancy of the vent process fluid will not have sufficient motive force to create backflow in the mixing chamber. Main stack dilution fans will be repowered prior to venting operations for severe accident with core debris ex-vessel.

Prevention of Inadverten t Actuation EOPIERG operating procedures provide clear guidance that the HCVS is not to be used to defeat containment integrity during any design basis transients and accident. In addition, the HCVS will be designed to provide features to prevent inadvertent actuation due to a design error, equipment malfunction, or operator error such that any credited containment accident pressure (CAP) that would provide net positive suction head to the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) pumps will be available (inclusive of a design basis loss-of-coolant accident (DBLOCA)). However the ECCS pumps will not have normal power available because of the starting boundary conditions of an ELAP.

  • 1fhe features that prevent inadvertent actuation are two PCIV' ~ in series powered from different divisions, a rupture disk, or key lock switches. Procedures also provide clear guidance to not circumvent containment integrity by simultaneou sly opening Suppression Pool and drywell vent valves during any design basis transient OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 17 of 66 December 6, 2015

In addition, the HCVS will be designed to provide features to prevent inadvertent actuation due to a design error, equipment malfunction, or operator error. Component Qualifications The HCVS components downstream of the second containment isolation valve and components that interface with the HCVS are routed in seismically qualified structures. For these components, the structures that are credited in Order EA-13-109 were analyzed for seismic ruggedness to ensure that any potential failure would not adversely impact the function of the HCVS or other safety related structures or components. HCVS components that directly interface with the pressure boundary will be considered safety related, as the existing system is safety related. The primary containment system limits the leakage or release of radioactive materials to the environment to prevent offsite exposures from exceeding the guidelines of IOCFR 100. During normal or design basis operations, this means serving as a pressure boundary to prevent release of radioactive material. Likewise, any electrical or controls component which interfaces with Class 1E power sources will be considered safety related up to and including appropriate isolation devices such as fuses or breakers, as their failure could adversely impact containment isolation and/or a safety-related power source. The remaining components will be considered Augmented Quality. Newly installed piping and valves will be seismically qualified to handle the forces associated with the safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) back to their isolation boundaries. Electrical and controls components will be seismically qualified and will include the ability to handle harsh environmental conditions (although they will not be considered part of the site Environmental Qualification (EQ) program). HCVS instrumentation performance (e.g., accuracy and precision) need not exceed that of similar plant installed equipment. Additionally, radiation monitoring instrumentation accuracy and range will be sufficient to confirm flow of radionuclides through the HCVS. The HCVS instruments, including valve position indication, process instrumentation, radiation monitoring, and support system monitoring, will be qualified by using one or more of the three methods described in the ISG, which includes:

1. Purchase of instruments and supporting components with known operating principles from manufacturers with commercial quality assurance programs (e.g., IS09001) where the procurement specifications include the applicable seismic requirements, design requirements, and applicable testing.
2. Demonstration of seismic reliability via methods that predict performance described in IEEE 344-2004
3. Demonstration that instrumentation is substantially similar to the design of instrumentation previously qualified.

Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 2: Boundary Conditions for Wet Well Vent [OPEN ITEM 8: Identify qualification method used for HCVS instruments.] Monitoring of HCVS The Plant Hatch wetwell HCVS will be capable of being manually operated during sustained operations from a control panel located in the MCR and will meet the requirements of Order element 1.2.4. The MCR is a readily accessible location with no further evaluation required. Control Room dose associated with HCVS operation conforms to GDC 19/Alternate Source Term (AST). Additionally, to meet the intent for a secondary control location of section 1.2.5 of the Order, a readily accessible Remote Operating Station (ROS) will also be incorporated into the HCVS design as described in NEI 13-02 section 4.2.2.1.2. 1. The controls and indications at the ROS location will be accessible and functional under a range of plant conditions, including severe accident conditions with due consideration to source term and dose impact on operator exposure, extended Joss of AC power (ELAP), and inadequate containment cooling. An evaluation will be performed to determine accessibility to the location, habitability, staffing sufficiency, and communication capability with Vent-use decision makers (EOP/SOP/SAMG). [OPEN ITEM 9: Evaluate HCVS monitoring location for accessibility. habitability, staffing sufficiency, and communication capability with vent-use decision makers] The wetwell HCVS will include means to monitor the status of the vent system in both the MCR and the ROS. Included in the existing design of the torus hardened vent (THV) are control switches in the MCR with valve position indication. These THV controls currently meet the environmental and seismic requirements of the Order for the plant severe accident and will be upgraded to address ELAP. Control and indication of the wetwell HCVS valves will be duplicated at the ROS. The ability to open/close these valves multiple times during the event's first 24 hours will be provided by two air accumulator tanks and station service batteries, supplemented by installed backup battery power sources. Beyond the first 24 hours, the ability to maintain these valves open or closed will be accomplished through the use of replaceable nitrogen bottles and FLEX generators. The wetwell HCVS will include indications for vent temperature and effluent radiation levels at both the MCR and ROS. Other important information on the status of supporting systems, such as power source status and pneumatic supply pressure, will also be included in the design and located to support HCVS operation. The wetwell HCVS includes existing Drywell Pressure and Suppression Pool level indication in the MCR to monitor vent operation. This monitoring instrumentation provides the indication from the MCR as per Requirement 1.2.4 and will be designed for sustained operation during an ELAP event. Component reliable and rugged performance The HCVS downstream of the second containment isolation valve, including piping and supports, electrical power supply, valve actuator pneumatic supply, and instrumentation (local and remote) components, will be designed/analyzed to conform to the requirements consistent with the applicable design codes (e.g., Non-safety, Cat l, SS and 300# ASME or B3l.1, NEMA 4, etc.) for the plant and to ensure functionality following a design basis earthquake. The torus hardened vent (THY) system was originally installed to satisfy the requirements of Generic Letter 89-16. The modifications associated with the THV vent were performed under the provisions of 10CFR50.59 and thus the Plant Hatch THV was designed, analyzed, and implemeqted consistent with the design basis of the plant. The current design will be evaluated to confirm that the existing system, coupled with current and planned modifications to upgrad~ the THV to a hardened containment vent system (HCVS), will meet the requirements of Order EA-13-109 and remain OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 19 of 66 December 6, 2015

Additional modifications required to meet the Order will be reliably functional at the temperature, pressure, and radiation levels consistent with the vent pipe conditions for sustained operations. The instrumentation/power supplies/cables/connections (components) will be procured for use under the temperature, pressure, radiation level, total integrated dose radiation for the effluent vent pipe and HCVS ROS location. (reference HCVS-FAQ-08) Conduit design will be installed to Seismic Class 1 criteria. Both existing and new barriers will be used to provide a level of protection from missiles when required. (reference HCVS-WP-04) Augmented quality requirements, will be applied to the components installed in response to this Order. In addition to these design requirements, providing sufficient channel separation (by distance and/or protective barriers) will minimize the likelihood of a common cause event which adversely affects both divisions of the containment isolation valves when the control for these valves is provided at the ROS. Separation will be in accordance with Plant Hatch electrical design criteria (ref. RG 1.75 and IEEE 384). If the instruments are purchased as commercial-grade equipment, they will be procured suitable to operate under severe accident environment as required by NRC Order EA-13-1 09 and the guidance of NEI 13-02. The equipment procurement will utilize the following guidance for seismic per IEEE 344, environment per IEEE 323, and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) per RG 1.180. These qualifications will be bounding conditions for Plant Hatch. The qualification for the equipment by the supplier will be validated by SNC for the specific location at Plant Hatch to ensure that the bounding conditions envelope the specific plant conditions. For the instruments required after a potential seismic event, the following methods will be used to verify that the design and installation is reliable I rugged and thus capable of ensuring HCVS functionality following a seismic event. Applicable instruments are rated by the manufacturer (or otherwise tested) for seismic impact at levels commensurate with those of postulated severe accident event conditions in the area of instrument component use using one or more of the following methods:

  • demonstration of seismic motion will be consistent with that of existing design basis loads at the installed location;
  • substantial history of operational reliability in environments with significant vibration with a design envelope inclusive of the effects of seismic motion imparted to the instruments proposed at the location;
  • ade.quacy of seismic design and installation is demonstrated based on the guidance in Sections 7, 8, 9, and 10 of IEEE Standard 344-2004, IEEE Recommended Practice for Seismic Qualification of Class IE Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations, or a substantially similar industrial standard;
  • demonstration that proposed devices are substantially similar in design to models that have been previously tested for seismic effects in excess of the plant design basis at the location where the instrument is to be installed (g-levels and frequency ranges);
  • seismic qualification using seismic motion consistent with that of existing design basis loading at the installation location.

Ref: EA-13-109 Section 1.1.4 I NEI 13-02 Section 2.2 First 24 Hour Coping Detail Provide a general description of the venting actions for first 24 hours using installed equipment including station modifications that are proposed. Ref: EA-13-109 Section 1.2.6 I NEI 13-02 Section 2.5, 4.2.2 The operation of the HCVS will be designed to minimize the reliance on operator actions for response to an ELAP and BDBEE hazards identified in part I of this OIP. Initial operator actions can be completed by Operators from the HCVS control station(s) and include remote-manual initiation. The operator actions required to open a vent path are as described in table 2- 1. Remote-manual is defined in this report as a non-automatic power operation of a component and does not require the operator to be at or in close proximity to the component. No other operator actions are required to initiate venting under the guiding procedural protocol. The HCVS will be designed to allow initiation, control, and monitoring of venting from the MCR in response to this Order. Both locations minimize plant operators' exposure to adverse temperature and radiological conditions and are protected from hazards assumed in Part I of this report. Permanently installed power and motive air/gas capability will be available to support operation and monitoring of the HCVS for 24 hours. Permanently installed equipment will supply air and power to HCVS for 24 hours before FLEX diesel generators will be required to be functional. System control:

i. Active: PCIVs are operated in accordance with EOPs/SOPs to control containment pressure. The HCVS is designed for a minimum of 8 open/close cycles under ELAP conditions over the first 24 hours following an ELAP, based on normal operating pressures. Controlled venting will be permitted in the revised EPGs and associated implementing EOPs, e.g., jumpers will be used to override the containment isolation circuit on the PC IV s needed to vent containment.

ii. Passive: Inadvertent actuation protection is provided by the current containment isolation circuitry associated with the PCIVs used to operate the HCVS. In addition, the HCVS isolation val ve is normally key-locked closed and has a rupture disc located downstream. This rupture disc has a burst set pressure above the header pressure (at the disc) expected during a design basis event. Breach of the rupture disc will occur outside of the MCR and will require manual operation.

Sufficient nitrogen bottles will be staged to support operations for up to 72 hours following the ELAP event (less than 3 planned actuations for FLEX), additional bottles can be connected to support sustained operation. After 24 hours, power can be switched back to the normal configuration which is expected to be powered by FLEX generators.

Ref: EA-13-109 Section 1.2.6/ NEI 13-02 Section 2.5, 4.2.2 The operation of the HCVS will be designed to minimize the reliance on operator actions for response to an ELAP and severe accident events. Severe accident event assumes that specific core cooling actions from the FLEX strategies identified in the response to Order EA-12-049 were unsuccessful and that core damage has occurred, up to and including a breach of the reactor vessel by molten core debris. Venting will occur without the need for manually breaching the rupture disc, since conditions in containment would be sufficient to burst the rupture disc without assistance from operators. Access to the reactor building will be restricted as determined by the RPV water level and core damage conditions. Initial actions will be completed by Operators in the Main Control Room (MCR) or at the HCVS Remote Operating Station (ROS) and will include remote-manual actions from a local gas cylinder station. The operator actions required to open a vent path were previously listed in the BDBEE Venting Part 2 section of this report. As stated in the Part 2 section on BDBEE Venting, the HCVS will be designed to allow initiation, control, and monitoring of venting from the MCR and will be capable of operation from a ROS to be installed as part of the response to this Order. Both locations minimize plant operators' exposure to adverse temperature and ra9iological conditions and are protected from hazards assumed in Part 1 of this document. Travel pathways will be reviewed for dose and temperature, and alternate routes may need to be considered to minimize operator exposure to harsh environmental conditions). Permanently installed power and motive air/gas capable will be available to support operation and mon itoring of the HCVS for 24 hours. System control:

1. Active: PCIVs are operated in accordance with EOPs to control containment pressure. The HCVS is designed for a minimum of 8 open/close cycles of the isolation valve under ELAP conditions over the first 24 hours following an ELAP. HCVS venting will be directed per the SAMGs.

Provide a sequence of events and identify any time constraint required for success including the basis for the time constraint. SAWA and SAWM or SADV Actions supporting SA conditions that have a time constraint to be successful should be identified with a technical basis and a justification provided that the time can reasonably be met (for example, a walkthrough of deployment). Actions already identified under the HCVS part of this template need not be repeated here. The time to establish the water addition capability into the RPV or DW should be less than 8 hours from the onset of tlze los of all injection sources.

  • Electrical generators satisfying the requirements of EA-12-049 may be credited for powering components and instrumentation needed to establish a flow path.
  • Time Sensitive Actions (TSAs) for the purpose of SA WA are those actions needed to transport, connect and start portable equipment needed to provide SA WA flow or provide power to SA WA components in the flow path between the connection point and the RPV or drywell. Actions needed to establish power to SA WA instrumentation should also be included as TSAs.

Ref: NEI 13-02 Section 6.1.1.7.4.1, 1.1.4, 1.1.5 The operation of the HCVS using SAWA will be designed to minimize the reliance on operator actions in response to hazards listed in Part 1. Initial operator actions will be completed by plant personnel and will include the capability for remote-manual initiation from the MCR using control switches, at MCC/Busses in the Control Building and locally at the intake structure. In addition, HCVS operation may occur at the ROS on the 147'elevation in the Control Building. Timelines (see attachments 2 and 2.1.A for SAWA and SAWM) were developed to identify required operator response times and actions. The timelines are an expansion of Attachment 2 and begin either as core damage occurs (SAWA) or after initial SAWA injection is established and as flowrate is adjusted for option B.2 (SA WM). The timelines are appropriate for both in-vessel and ex-vessel core damage conditions. OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 30 of 66 December 6, 2015

Action being taken within the reactor building under EA-12-049 conditions after RPV level lowers to 2/3 core height must be evaluated for radiological conditions assuming permanent containment shielding remains intact.

Ref: EA-13-109 Attachment 2, Section B.2.2, B.2.3/ NEI13-02 Section 1.1.6, 1.1.4.4 It is anticipated that SAW A will be used in Severe Accident Events based on presumed failure of injection systems or presumed failure of injection systems in a timely manner. This does not preclude the use of the SAWA system to supplement or replace the EA-12-049 injection systems if desired. SAWA will consist of both portable and installed equipment. The motive force equipment needed to support the SAWA strategy shall be available prior to t=8 hours from the loss of injection (assumed at T=O). The SAW A flow path includes methods to minimize exposure of personnel to radioactive liquids I gases and potentially flammable conditions by inclusion of backflow prevention. The check valve is integral with the pump skid and will close and prevent leakage when the SAW A pump is secured. RHR LPCI injection mode has installed ECCS backflow prevention devices ( 112E II-F050NB) qualified for accident scenarios. Description of SAW A actions for first 24 hours: T<l hr:

  • No evaluation required for actions inside the reactor building for SAWA. Expected actions are:

o None T=l -7* hr:

  • Evaluation of core gap release impact to reactor building access for SAWA actions is required. It is assumed that reactor building access is limited due to the source term at this time unless otherwise noted.

SAWM flowrates will be directed to preserve the availability of the HCVS wetwell vent (see 3.1.A). Details: Details of Design Characteristic s/Performance Specifications SA WA shall be capable of providing a RPV or DW injection rate of 500 gpm within 8 hours of a loss of all RPV injection following an ELAP/Severe Accident. SA WA shall meet the design characteristics of the HCVS with the exception of the dedicated 24 hour power source. Hydrogen mitigation is not applicable to SA WA. Ref: EA-13-109 Attachment 2, Section B.2.1, B.2.2, B.2.3/ NEI 13-02 Section 1.1.4 Equipment Locations/Con trols/Instrume ntation The locations of the SAWA equipment and controls, as well as ingress and egress paths have been evaluated for the expected severe accident conditions (temperature, humidity, radiation) for the Sustained Operating period. Equipment has been evaluated to remain operational throughout the Sustained Operating period. Personnel exposure and temperature I humidity conditions for operation of SAWA equipment will not exceed the limits for ERO dose and plant safety guidelines for temperature and humidity. The flow path will be from the FLEX suction in the Altamaha river through the FLEX pumps with 4 outlets with individual flow indicators. One indicator will be dedicated to the unit in a Severe Accident, and the flow will be monitored that is pro ided to the RHR service water FLEX header. The monitored water flow rate will pass through the RHRSW piping to the Reactor Building where it will connect with the RHR system by opening MOV s from the MCR that interconnect the systems. The flow will then be directed into the RPV via the LPCI injection valves. Cross flow into other portions of the RHR system will be isolated by ensuring closure of the MOV s from the MCR. DW pressure and Suppression Pool level will be monitored and flow rate will be adjusted by use of the FLEX pump control valve at the Intake Structure. Communication will be established between the MCR and the FLEX pump location. MOV s will be powered from the FLEX diesel generators connected as described in the EA-12-049 compliance documents. The MOVs will be operated in series (not parallel) to limit the potential for overloading the FLEX DGs. The FLEX DGs are located near the Control Building which is significantly away from the discharge of the HCVS at the Main Meteorological Stack. Refueling of the FLEX DG will be accomplished from the EDG fuel oil tanks as described in the EA-12-049 compliance documents. The Intake Structure is a significant distance from the discharge of the HCVS at the Main Meteorological Stack.

Actions already identified under the HCVS part of this template need not be repeated here. There are three time periods for the maintaining SA WM actions such that the WW vent remains available to remo ve decay heat from the containment:

  • SA WM can be maintained for> 7 days without the need for a cbywell vent to maintain pressure below PCPL or containment design pressure, whichever is lower.

o Under this approach, no detail concerning plant modifications or procedures is necessmy with respect to how alternate containment heat removal will be provided.

  • SA WM can be maintained for at least 72 hours, but less than 7 days before containment pressure reaches PCPL or design pressure, whichever is lower.

o Under this approach, afunctional description is required of how alternate containment heat removal might be established before containment pressure reaches PCPL or design pressure whichever is lower. Under this approach, physical plant modifications and detailed procedures are not necessary, but written descriptions of possible approaches for achieving alternate containment heat removal and pressure control will be provided.

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Attachment 2.1.0: SAWM SAMG Approved Language The following general cautions, priorities and methods will be evaluated for plant specific applicability and incorporated as appropriate into the plant specific SAMGs using administrative procedures for EPGISAG change control process and implementation. SAMGs are symptom based guidelines and therefore address a wide variety of possible plant conditions and capabilities while these changes are intended to accommodate those specific conditions assumed in Order EA-13-109. The changes will be made in a way that maintains the use of SAMGs in a symptom based mode while at the same time addressing those conditions that may exist under extended loss of AC power (El.AP) conditions with significant core damage including ex-vessel core debris. Actual Approved Language that will be incorporate d into site SAMG* Cautions:

  • Addressing the possible plant response associated with adding water to hot core debris and the resulting pressurization of the primary containment by rapid steam generation.
  • Addressing the plant impact that raising suppression pool water level above the elevation of the suppression chamber vent opening elevation will flood the suppression chamber vent path.

Priorities: With significant core damage and RPV breach, SAMGs prioritize the preservation of primary containment integrity while limiting radioactivity releases as follows :

      .!.__ Core debris in the primary containment is stabilized by water addition (SAWA)
  • Primary containment pressure is controlled below the Primary Containment Pressure Limit (Wetwell venting)
  • Water addition is managed to preserve the Mark IIII suppression chamber vent paths, thereby retaining the benefits of suppression pool scrubbing and minimizing the likelihood of radioactivity and hydrogen release into the secondary containment (SAWM)

Methods: Identify systems and capabilities to add water to the RPV or drywell, with the following generic guidance:

  • Use controlled injection if possible.
  • Inject into the RPV if possible.

Maintain injection from external sources of water as low as possible to preserve suppression chamber vent capability.

  • Actual language may vary by acceptable site procedure standards, but intent and structure should follow this guidance.

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Introduction In 1989, the NRC issued Generic Letter 89-16, "Installation of a Hardened Wetwell Vent," to all licensees of BWRs with Mark I containments to encourage licensees to voluntarily install a hardened wetwell vent. In response, licensees installed a hardened vent pipe from the wetwell to some point outside the secondary containment envelope (usually outside the reactor building). Some licensees also installed a hardened vent branch line from the drywell. On March 19, 2013, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Commissioners directed the staff per Staff Requirements Memorandum (SRM) for SECY 0157 to require licensees with Mark I and Mark II containments to "upgrade or replace the reliable hardened vents required by Order EA-12-050 with a containment venting system designed and installed to remain functional during severe accident conditions." In response, the NRC issued Order EA-13-109, Issuance of Order to Modifying Licenses with Regard to Reliable Hardened Containment Vents Capable of Operation Under Severe Accidents, June 6, 2013. The Order (EA-13-109) requires that licensees of BWR facilities with Mark I and Mark II containment designs ensure that these facilities have a reliable hardened vent to remove decay heat from the containment, and maintain control of containment pressure within acceptable limits following events that result in the loss of active containment heat removal capability while maintaining the capability to operate under severe accident (SA) conditions resulting from an Extended Loss of AC Power (ELAP). The Order requirements are applied in a phased approach where:

      *  "Phase I involves upgrading the venting capabilities from the containment wetwell to provide reliable, severe accident capable hardened vents to assist in preventing core damage and, if necessary, to provide venting capability during severe accident conditions." (Completed "no later than startup from the second refueling outage that begins after June 30, 2014, or June 30, 2018, whichever comes first.")
     *   "Phase 2 involves providing additional protections for severe accident conditions through installation of a reliable, severe accident capable drywell vent system or the development of a reliable containment venting strategy that makes it unlikely that a licensee would need to vent from the containment drywell during severe accident conditions." (Completed "no later than startup from the first refueling outage that begins after June 30, 20 I 7, or June 30, 2019, whichever comes first.")

The NRC provided an acceptable approach for complying with Order EA-13-1 09 through Interim Staff Guidance (JLD-ISG-2013-02 issued in November 2013 and JLD-ISG-2015-01 issued in April2015 ). The ISG endorses the compliance approach presented in NEI 13-02 Revisions 0 and I, Compliance with Order EA-13-109, Severe Accident Reliable Hardened Containment Vents, with clarifications. Except in those cases in which a licensee proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with Order EA-13-1 09, the NRC staff will use the methods described in the ISGs to evaluate licensee compliance as presented in submittals required in Order EA-13-1 09. The Order also requires submittal of an overall integrated plan which will provide a description of how the requirements of the Order will be achieved. This document provides the Overall Integrated Plan (OIP) for complying with Order EA-13-109 using the methods described in NEI 13-02 and endorsed by NRC JLD-ISG-2013-02 and JLD-ISG-2015-01. Six month progress reports will be provided consistent with the requiremenfs of Order EA 13-109. 1 OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 2 of66 December 6, 2015

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan The submittals required are:

  • OIP for Phase I of EA-13-1 09 was required to be submitted by Licensees to the NRC by June 30, 2014. The NRC requires periodic (6 month) updates for the HCVS actions being taken.

The first update for Phase I was due December 2014, with the second due June 2015.

  • OIP for Phase 2 of EA-13-1 09 is required to be submitted by Licensees to the NRC by December 31, 2015. It is expected the December 2015 six month update for Phase 1 will be combined with the Phase 2 OIP submittal by means of a combined Phase I and 2 OIP.
  • Thereafter, the 6 month updates will be for both the Phase I and Phase 2 actions until complete, consistent with the requirements of Order EA-13-109.

Note: At the Licensee's option, the December 2015 six month update for Phase I may be independent of the Phase 2 OIP submittal, but will require separate six month updates for Phase 1 and 2 until each phase is in compliance. The Plant venting actions for the EA-13-1 09, Phase 1, severe accident capable venting scenario can be summarized by the following:

  • The HCVS will be initiated via manual action from the Main Control Room (MCR)(some plants have a designated Primary Operating Station (POS) that will be treated as the main operating location for this order) or Remote Operating Station (ROS) at the appropriate time based on procedural guidance in response to plant conditions from observed or derived symptoms.
  • The vent will utilize Containment Parameters of Pressure and Level from the MCR instrumentation to monitor effectiveness of the venting actions.
  • The vent operation will be monitored by HCVS valve position, temperature and effluent radiation levels.
  • The HCVS motive force will be monitored and have the capacity to operate for 24 hours with installed equipment. Replenishment of the motive force will be by use of portable equipment once the installed motive force is exhausted.
  • Venting actions will be capable of being maintained for a sustained period of up to 7 days or a shorter time if justified.

The Phase 2 actions can be summarized as follows:

  • Utilization of Severe Accident Water Addition (SAWA) to initially inject water into the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) or Drywell.
  • Utilization of Severe Accident Water Management (SAWM) to control injection and Suppression Pool level to ensure the HCVS (Phase 1) wetwell vent (SAWV) will remain functional for the removal of the decay heat from the core from containment.
  • Ensure that the decay heat can be removed from the containment for seven (7) days using the HCVS or describe the alternate method(s) to remove decay heat from the containment from the time the HCVS is no longer functional until alternate means of decay heat removal are established that make it unlikely the drywell vent will be required for containment pressure control.
  • The SAWA and SAWM actions will be manually activated and controlled from areas that are accessible during severe accident conditions.

  • Parameters measured should be Drywell pressure, Suppression Pool level, SAWA flowrate and the HCVS parameters listed above.
  • Alternatively SA WA and a Severe Accident Capable Drywell Vent (SADV) strategy may be implemented to meet Phase 2 of Order EA 109.

Include a description of any alternatives to the guidance. A technical justification and basis for the alternative needs to be provided. This will likely require a pre-meeting with the NRC to review the alternative. Ref: JLD-ISG-2013-02, JLD-ISG-2015-01 Compliance will be attained for E.l. Hatch Units 1&2 (Plant Hatch) with no known deviations to the guidelines in JLD-ISG-2013-02, JLD-ISG-2015-01 and NEI 13-02 for each phase as follows:

  • The Hardened Containment Vent System (HCVS) will be comprised of installed and portable equipmen t and operating guidance:
  • Severe Accident Wetwell Vent (SAWV) - Permanently installed vent from the Suppression Pool to the meteorological stack
  • Severe accident Water Addition (SAW A)- A combination of permanently installed and portable equipment to provide a means to add water to the RPV following a severe accident and monitor system and plant conditions.
  • Severe Accident Water Management (SA WM) strategies and guidance for controllin g the water addition to the RPV for the sustained operating period. (reference attachment 2. l.D)

Provide key assumptions associated with implementation of HCVS Phase I and Phase 2 Actions Ref: NEI 13-02, Revision 1, Section 2 NEI 12-06 Revision 0 Mark 1111 Generic EA-13-1 09 Phase 1 and Phase 2 Related Assumptions: Applicable EA- 12-049 assumptions: 049- 1. Assumed initial plant conditions are as identified in NEI 12-06 section 3.2.1.2 items 1 and 2. 049-2. Assumed initial conditions are as identified in NEI 12-06 section 3.2.1.3 items 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8 049-3. Assumed reactor transient boundary conditions are as identified in NEI 12-06 section 3.2.1.4 items 1, 2, 3 and 4 049-4. No additional events or failures are assumed to occur immediately prior to or during the event, including security events except for failure of RCIC or HPCI. (Reference NEI 12-06, section 3.2.1.3 item 9) 049-5 . At Time=O the event is initiated and all rods insert and no other event beyond a common site ELAP is occurring at any or all of the units. (NEI 12-06, section 3.2.1.3 item 9 and 3.2.1.4 item 1-4) 049-6. At 48 minutes (time sensitive at a time greater than 1 hour) an ELAP is declared and actions begin as defined in EA-12-049 compliance 049-7. DC power and distribution can be credited for the duration determined per the EA-12-049 (FLEX) methodology for battery usage, (greater than 12 hours with a calculation limiting value of 13.35 hours). The power supply scheme for the HCVS shall be in accordance with EA-13-109 and the applicable guidance. (NEI 12-06, section 3.2.1.3 item 8) 049-8. Deployment resources are assumed to begin arriving at hour 6 and fully staffed by 24 hours 049-9. All activities associated with plant specific EA-12-049 FLEX strategies that are not specific to implementation of the HCVS, including such items as debris removal, communication, notification, SFP level and makeup, security response, opening doors for cooling, and initiating conditions for the event, can be credited as previously evaluated for FLEX. (refer to assumption 109-02 below for clarity on SAWA)(HCVS-FAQ-11) Applicable EA-13-1 09 generic assumptions : I 09-01. Site response activities associated with EA-13-109 actions are considered to have no access limitations associated with radiological impacts while RPV level is above 2/3 core height (core damage is not expected). This is further referenced in HCVS-FAQ-12. 109-02. Portable equipment can supplement the installed equipment after 24 hours provided the portable equipment credited meets the criteria applicable to the HCVS . An example is use of FLEX portable air supply e~uipment 1 that is credited to recharge air lines for HCVS components after 24 hours. The FLEX portable air supply used must be demonstrate d to meet the "SA Capable" criteria that are defined in NEI 13-02 Section 4.2.4.2 and OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 5 of 66 December 6, 2015

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 1: General Integrated Plan Elements and Assumptions Appendix D Section D.l.3. This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SAW A/SAWM because SAW A equipment needs to be connected and placed in service within 8 hours from the time of the loss of RPV injection. (Reference HCVS-FAQ-12) I09-03. SFP level is maintained with either on-site or off-site resources such that the SFP does not contribute to the analyzed source term (Reference HCVS-FAQ-07). I 09-04. Existing containment components design and testing values are governed by existing plant primary containment criteria (e.g., Appendix J) and are not subject to the testing criteria from NEI 13-02 (reference HCVS-FAQ-05 and NEI 13-02 section 6.2.2). 109-05. Classical design basis evaluations and assumptions are not required when assessing the operation of the HCVS. The reason this is not required is that the order postulates an unsuccessful mitigation of an event such that an ELAP progresses to a severe accident with ex-vessel core debris which classical design basis evaluations are intended to prevent. (Reference NEI 13-02 section 2.3.1 ). I 09-06. HCVS manual actions that require minimal operator steps and can be performed in the postulated thermal and radiological environment at the location of the step(s) (e.g., load stripping, control switch manipulation, valving-in nitrogen bottles) are acceptable to obtain HCVS venting dedicated functionality. (reference HCVS-FAQ-0 I) This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SAW A/SA WM because SAWA equipment needs to be connected and placed in service within 8 hours from the time of the loss of RPV injection and will require more than minimal operator action. I 09-07. HCVS dedicated equipment is defined as vent process elements that are required for the HCVS to function in an ELAP event that progresses to core melt ex-vessel. (reference HCVS-FAQ-02 and White Paper HCVS-WP-0 I). This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SAWA/SA WM because SAWA equipment is not dedicated to HCVS but shared to support FLEX functions. This is further addressed in HCVS-FAQ-11. I 09-08. Use of MAAP Version 4 or higher provides adequate assurance of the plant conditions (e.g., RPV water level, temperatures, etc.) assumed for Order EA- 13-109 BDBEE and SA HCVS operation. (reference FLEX MAAP Endorsement ML13190A201) Additional analysis using RELAP5/MOD 3, GOTHIC, PCFLUD, LOCADOSE and SHIELD are acceptable methods for evaluating environmental conditions in areas of the plant provided the specific version utilized is documented in the analysis. MAAP Version 5 was used to develop EPRI Technical Report 3002003301 to support drywell temperature response to SAWA under severe accident conditions. 109-09. NRC Published Accident evaluations (e.g. SOARCA, SECY-12-0157, and NUREG 1465) as related to Order EA-13-109 conditions are acceptable as references. (Reference NEI 13-02 section 8). 109-10. Permanent modifications installed or planned per EA-12-049 are assumed implemented and may be credited for use in EA I 09 Order response. 109-11. This Overall Integrated Plan is based on Emergency Operating Procedure changes consistent with EPG/SAGs Revision 3 as incorporated per the sites EOP/SAMG procedure change process. This assumption does not apply to Phase 2 SA WM because SA WM requires changes to the EPG/SAGs per approved issue from the BWROG Emergency Procedures Committee. 109-12. Under the postulated scenarios of order EA-13-109 the Control Room is adequately protected from excessive radiation dose due to its distance and shielding from the reactor (per General Design Criterion (GDC) I 9 in I OCFR50 Appendix A) and no further evaluation of its use as the preferred HCVS control location is required provided that the HCVS routi~g is a sufficient distance away from the MCR or is shielded tp minimize impact to the MCR dose. In addition, adequate protective clothing and respiratory protection is available if required to address contamination issues.

(HCVS-FAQ-10) Plant Specific HCVS Related Assumptions/Characteristics: HNP-1. The main stack at Plant Hatch can handle the HCVS flow from both units simultaneously . Once outside the reactor building, effluent lines slope downward toward main stack such that effluent is unlikely to accumulate and create a hot spot. HNP-2. All load stripping is accomplished within one hour and fifteen minutes of event initiation and will occur below the core area at locations not impacted by a radiological event. HNP-3. The rupture disk will be manually breached within 7.3 hours of event initiation if required for anticipatory venting during an ELAP. HNP-4.

HCVS Actions that have a time constraint to be successful should be identified with a technical basis and a justification provided that the time can reasonably be met (for example, action to open vent valves). HCVS Actions that have an environmental constraint (e.g. actions in areas of High Thermal stress or High Dose areas) should be evaluated per guidance. Describe in detail in this section the technical basis for the constraints identified on the sequence of events time line attachment. See attached sequence of events time line (Attachment 2) Ref: EA-13-109 Section 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3/ NEI 13-02 Section 4.2.5, 4.2.6. 6.1.1 The operation of the HCVS will be designed to minimize the reliance on operator actions in response to hazards listed in Part 1. Initial operator actions will be completed by plant personnel and will include the capability for remote-manual initiation from the HCVS control station. A list of the remote manual actions performed by plant personnel to open the HCVS vent path can be found in the following table (2-1 ). The reliable operation of HCVS will be met because HCVS meets the seismic requirements identified in NEI 13-02 and will be powered by DC buses with motive force supplied to HCVS valves from installed accumulators and portable nitrogen storage bottles.

2. Case 2 is based on a SECY-12-0157 long term station blackout (LTSBO) (or ELAP) with failure of RCIC I after a black start where failure occurs because of subjectiyety assuming over injection.
3. Case 3 is based on NUREG-1935 (SOARCA) results for a prolonged SBO (or ELAP) with the loss ofRCIC case without black start.

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 2: Boundary Conditions for Wet Well Vent The followin g is a discussion of time constraints identified in Attachment 2A for the 3 timeline cases identified above

  • At 7.3 Hours, Initiate use of Hardened Containment Vent System (HCVS) per site procedures to maintain containment parameters below design limits and within the limits that allow continued use of RCIC for mitigation in a BDBEE -- The rel iable operation of HCVS will be met because HCVS meets the seismic requirements identified in NEI 13-02 and will be powered by DC buses with motive force supplied to HCVS valves from installed accumulators and portable nitrogen storage bottles. Critical HCVS controls and instruments associated with containment will be DC powered and operated from the MCR or a Remote Operating Station on each unit.

The DC power for HCVS will be available as long as the HCVS is required. Station batteries will provide power for greater than 12 hours, HCVS battery capacity will be available to extend past 24 hours. In addition, when available Phase 2 FLEX Diesel Generator (DG) can provide power before battery life is exhausted. Thus initiation of the HCVS from the MCR or the Remote Operating Station within 7.3 hours is acceptable because the actions can be performed any time after declaration of an ELAP ( 1 hour) until the venting is needed at 7.3 hours for BDBEE venting. This action can also be performed for SA HCVS operation which occur at a time further removed from an ELAP declaration as shown in Attachment 2A.

  • At 12 hours, based on battery depletion, the power supply will be swapped from station batteries to dedicated HCVS batteries to ensure power to the inverters. The DC power for HCVS will be available as long as the HCVS is required. Station batteries will provide power for greater than 12 hours, HCVS battery capacity will be available to extend past 24 hours. In addition, when available, Phase 2 FLEX Diesel Generator (DG) can provide power before battery life is exhausted. A power monitor will be available at the MCR or ROS to dictate when transfer from the Station Batteries to the dedicated HCVS battery capacity is needed. Margin will be established such that the HCVS dedicated battery capacity exceeds 14 hours.
  • At 24 Hours, temporary generators will be installed and connected to the pigtail to power up battery chargers to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments; time sensitive at a time greater than 25 hours (>12 hour Station Battery life plus> 14 hour dedicated HCVS battery capacity). Current battery (station service plus dedicated HCVS) durations are calculated to last greater than 24 hours. DG will be deployed beginning at approximately 8-10 hour time frame (Reference FLEX OIP). Within two (2) hours later the DG will be in service.

Thus the DGs will be available to be placed in service at any point after 24 hours as required to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments. DGs will be maintained in on-site FLEX storage buildings. DGs will be transferred and staged via haul routes and staging areas evaluated for impact from external hazards applicable to Plant Hatch. Modifications will be implemented to facilitate the connections and operational actions required to supply power within 10 hours which is acceptable because the actions can be performed any time after declaration of an ELAP until the repowering of the station service batteries is needed at greater than 24 hours for HCVS operation. For Phase 2 applicability, the 8-10 hours will change to 6-7 hours, since it provides power to the SAWA Valves, and will be validated by the Phase 2 Verification and Validation activity, thus providing power by 7 hours,

  • At >24 hours installed nitrogen bottles will be valved-in to supplement the air accumulator tanks. The nitrogen bottles (three provided) can be replenished one at a time leaving the other 2 supplying the HCVS. This can be performed at any time prior to depletion of the accumulators which is expected to last greater than 24 hours assuming a minimum of 8 HCVS cycles. Thus 24 hours ensures adequate capacity is maintained so this time constraint is not limiting.
  • At >24 hours, the dedicated HCVS power supplies will be swapped from the dedicated HCVS batteries to the normal configuration powered by portable DGs. Margin will be established such that the total HCVS battery capacity exceeds 25 hourl OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 12 of 66 December 6, 2015

  • At <7.3 hours, the rupture disc will be manually breached using the argon tank station in the reactor building. This is not an environmental constraint because the breaching of the rupture disc is not required for events where anticipatory venting at a value less than PSP (Pressure Suppression Pressure)/PCPL (Primary Containment Pressure Limit) is initiated since the rupture set point will be changed in response to NRC Order EA- I 2-049 to a value Jess than or equal to PSP.
  • At 12 hours, based on battery depletion, power supply will be swapped from station batteries to dedicated HCVS batteries to ensure power to the inverters. Access to the transfer switch will be in the control building which is separated from the Reactor Building by substantial walls and air space (refer to figure I -1).

  • At >24 hours, installed nitrogen bottles will be valved-in to supplement the air accumulator supply as stated for the related time constraint item. Nitrogen bottles and manual tie-in valve will be located in an area that is accessible to operators in the Control Building or yard area.

[OPEN ITEM 2: Determine location of back-uQ nitrogen bottles- Nitrogen Bottles will be located in the Control Building]

  • At >24 Hours, temporary generators will be installed and connected to the pigtail to power up battery chargers using a portable DG to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments -Time critical at a time greater than 25 hours for HCVS operation and at 8 hours for SAWA operation (refer to section 3. I of this OIP). Current battery durations are calculated to last greater than 26 hours. DG will be staged beginning at approximately 8-10 hour time frame. Within two (2) hours of deployment the DG will be in service. Thus the DGs will be available to be placed in service at any point after 24 hours as required to supply power to HCVS critical components/instruments. The connections, location of the DG and access for refueling will be located in an area that is accessible to operators in the Control Building or in the yard area because the HCVS vent pipe is underground once it leaves the Reactor Building .

The procurement specifications shall include the seismic requirements and/or instrument design requiremellfs, and specify the need for commercial design standards and testing under seismic loadings consistent with design basis values at the instrument locations. Demonstration of the seismic reliability of the instrumentation through methods that predict pe1jormance by analysis, qualification testing under simulated seismic conditions, a combination of testing and analysis, or the use of experience data. Guidance for these is based on sections 7, 8, 9, and 10 of IEEE Standard 344-2004, "IEEE Recommended Practice for Seismic Qualification of Class IE Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations," or a substantially similar industrial standard could be used. Demonstration that the instrumentation is substantially similar in design to instrumentation that has been previously tested to seismic loading levels in accordance with the plant design basis at the location where the instrument is to be installed (g-levels and frequency ranges). Such testing and analysis should be similar to that pelformedf or the plant licensing basis. Vent Size and Basis The HCVS wetwell path is designed for venting steam/energy at a nominal capacity of I% of 2804 MWt thermal power at pressure of 56 psig. This pressure is the lower of the containment design pressure (56 psig) and the PCPL value (62 psig). The size of the wetwell portion of the HCVS is ;::: 18 inches in diameter which provides adequate capacity to meet or exceed the Order criteria. Vent Capacity The greater than I% decay heat removal capacity at Plant Hatch assumes that the suppression pool pressure suppression capacity is sufficient to absorb the decay heat generated during the first 3 hours. The vent would then be able to prevent containment pressure from increasing above the containment design pressure. As part of the detailed design, the duration of suppression pool decay heat absorption capability will be confirmed. [OPEN ITEM-4: Confirm suppression pool heat capacity] Vent Path and Discharge The existing HCVS vent path at Hatch consists of a wetwell and drywell vent on each unit. The drywell vent exits the Primary Containment into the Reactor Building and proceeds down to the torus bay. Wetwell and drywell vent piping merges into a common header in the torus bay. Vent path for both wetwell and drywell exits the reactor building through an underground pipe. This pipe travels approximately 500 feet from both units and combines in a mixing chamber at the base of the main stack. All effluents exit out the main stack. The HCVS discharge path uses the main stack. Power and Pneumatic Supply Sources All electrical power required for operation of HCVS components will be routed through two Inverters, one for each electrical division. These inverters will be sized at 7.5 kW each and will convert DC power from installed batteries into AC power for the end users (instruments, solenoid valves, etc.). Battery power will be provided by the existing station service batteries for the first 12 hours following the ELAP event. At about 12 hours, power can be transferred to the HCVS dedicated batteries t~at will supply power for an additional time of> 12 hours. At ~4 hours, power will transfer back to the normal configuration, at which time it is expected that FLEX generators will be in service to power the DC OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 15 of 66 December 6, 2015

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Part 2: Boundary Conditions for Wet Well Vent bus. Pneumatic power for the HCVS air-operated valves (AOVs) is normally provided by the non-interruptible air system. Following an ELAP event, the non-interruptible air system is lost, and normal backup from installed nitrogen supply tanks is isolated. Therefore, for the first 24 hours, pneumatic force will be supplied from newly installed air accumulator tanks. These tanks will supply the required motive force to those HCVS valves needed to maintain flow through the HCVS effluent piping. After the first 24 hours, backup nitrogen provided by nitrogen supply bottles will be manually valved-in and replenished as needed. I. The HCVS flow path valves are air-operated valves (AOV) with air-to-open and spring-to-shut (i.e., the wetwell containment isolation valves and the HCVS inlet isolation valve). Opening the valves requires energizing an AC powered solenoid operated valve (SOY) and providing motive air/gas. The detailed design will provide a permanently installed power source and motive air/gas supply adequate for the first 24 hours. Beyond the first 24 hours, FLEX generators will be used to maintain battery power to the HCVS components. The initial stored motive air/gas will allow for a minimum of eight valve operating cycles for the HCVS valve for the first 24 hours.

2. Following the initial 24 hour period, additional motive force will be supplied from nitrogen bottles that will be staged at a gas cylinder rack located (in the control building) such that radiological impacts are not an issue. Additional bottles can be brought in as needed.
3. An a sessment of temperature and radiological conditions will be performed to ensure that operating personnel can safely access and operate controls at the ROS based on time constraints listed in Attachment 2A.

4. All permanently installed HCVS equipment, including any connections required to supplement the HCVS operation during an ELAP (i.e., electric power, N2/air) will be located in areas reasonably protected from defined hazards listed in Part 1 of this report.
5. All valves required to open the flow path or valves that require manual operation to be closed to prevent diversion or cross-flow into other systems/units will be designed for remote manual operation following an ELAP, such that the primary means of valve manipulation does not rely on use of a hand wheel, reach-rod or similar means that requires close proximity to the valve (reference HCVS-FAQ-03)._Any supplemental connections will be pre-engineered to minimize man-power resources and address environmental concerns.

Required portable equipment will be reasonably protected from screened in hazards listed in Part 1 of this OIP.

6. Access to the locations described above will not require temporary ladders or scaffolding.

Location of Control Panels The HCVS design allows initiating and then operating and monitoring the HCVS from the Main Control Room (MCR) or the Remote Operating Station (ROS). The MCR location is protected from adverse natural phenomena and is the normal control point for HCVS operation and Plant Emergency Response actions. The final location of the ROS is the 147' elevation of the Control Building, one floor below the elevation of the MCR .

I I, the HCVS must be designed such that it is able to either provide assurance that oxygen cannot enter and mix with flammable gas in the HCVS (so as to form a combustible gas mixture), or it must be able to accommodate the dynamic loading resulting from a combustible gas detonation. Several configurations are available which will support the former (e.g., purge, mechanical isolation from outside air, etc.) or the latter (design of potentially affected portions of the system to withstand a detonation relative to pipe stress and support structures). [OPEN ITEM 6: State which approach or combination of approaches Plant Hatch decides to take to address the control of flammable gases- Plant Hatch plans to use option I of the endorsed white paper HCVS-WP-03 and power up the mixing chamber fan in the base of the metrological stack.] Unintended Cross Flow of Vented Fluids The HCVS uses the Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS) containment isolation valves for containment isolation. These containment isolation valves are AOVs that are air-to-open and spring-to-shut. An SOY must be energized to allow the motive air to open the valve. Specifically: I. The PCIS control circuit will be used during all "design basis" operating modes including all design basis transients and accidents.

2. Cross flow potential exists between the HCVS and the Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS). Resolution involves evaluation of SGTS isolation valve leakage for both inlet and outlet valves (referred to as boundary valves), as both interface with the HCVS. This evaluation will follow the testing criteria presented in NEI HCVS-FAQ -05 . If necessary, these valves will be replaced with leak-tight valves. Testing and maintenance will be performed to ensure that the valves remain leak-tight.

[OPEN ITEM 7: Evaluate SGTS valve leakage utilizing criteria from NEI HCVS-FAQ -05 .]

3. An additional cross-flow avenue exists between the HCVS of the two units and other connected systems at the mixing chamber in the shared Main Stack. With the Main Stack being open to the atmosphere, there is no motive force to push effluent from the mixing chamber back to the plant, thus it is assumed this avenue of cross flow is not a reasonable assumption, since the buoyancy of the vent process fluid will not have sufficient motive force to create backflow in the mixing chamber. Main stack dilution fans will be repowered prior to venting operations for severe accident with core debris ex-vessel.

Prevention of Inadverten t Actuation EOPIERG operating procedures provide clear guidance that the HCVS is not to be used to defeat containment integrity during any design basis transients and accident. In addition, the HCVS will be designed to provide features to prevent inadvertent actuation due to a design error, equipment malfunction, or operator error such that any credited containment accident pressure (CAP) that would provide net positive suction head to the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) pumps will be available (inclusive of a design basis loss-of-coolant accident (DBLOCA)). However the ECCS pumps will not have normal power available because of the starting boundary conditions of an ELAP.

  • 1fhe features that prevent inadvertent actuation are two PCIV' ~ in series powered from different divisions, a rupture disk, or key lock switches. Procedures also provide clear guidance to not circumvent containment integrity by simultaneou sly opening Suppression Pool and drywell vent valves during any design basis transient OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 17 of 66 December 6, 2015

In addition, the HCVS will be designed to provide features to prevent inadvertent actuation due to a design error, equipment malfunction, or operator error. Component Qualifications The HCVS components downstream of the second containment isolation valve and components that interface with the HCVS are routed in seismically qualified structures. For these components, the structures that are credited in Order EA-13-109 were analyzed for seismic ruggedness to ensure that any potential failure would not adversely impact the function of the HCVS or other safety related structures or components. HCVS components that directly interface with the pressure boundary will be considered safety related, as the existing system is safety related. The primary containment system limits the leakage or release of radioactive materials to the environment to prevent offsite exposures from exceeding the guidelines of IOCFR 100. During normal or design basis operations, this means serving as a pressure boundary to prevent release of radioactive material. Likewise, any electrical or controls component which interfaces with Class 1E power sources will be considered safety related up to and including appropriate isolation devices such as fuses or breakers, as their failure could adversely impact containment isolation and/or a safety-related power source. The remaining components will be considered Augmented Quality. Newly installed piping and valves will be seismically qualified to handle the forces associated with the safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) back to their isolation boundaries. Electrical and controls components will be seismically qualified and will include the ability to handle harsh environmental conditions (although they will not be considered part of the site Environmental Qualification (EQ) program). HCVS instrumentation performance (e.g., accuracy and precision) need not exceed that of similar plant installed equipment. Additionally, radiation monitoring instrumentation accuracy and range will be sufficient to confirm flow of radionuclides through the HCVS. The HCVS instruments, including valve position indication, process instrumentation, radiation monitoring, and support system monitoring, will be qualified by using one or more of the three methods described in the ISG, which includes:

1. Purchase of instruments and supporting components with known operating principles from manufacturers with commercial quality assurance programs (e.g., IS09001) where the procurement specifications include the applicable seismic requirements, design requirements, and applicable testing.
2. Demonstration of seismic reliability via methods that predict performance described in IEEE 344-2004
3. Demonstration that instrumentation is substantially similar to the design of instrumentation previously qualified.

The MCR is a readily accessible location with no further evaluation required. Control Room dose associated with HCVS operation conforms to GDC 19/Alternate Source Term (AST). Additionally, to meet the intent for a secondary control location of section 1.2.5 of the Order, a readily accessible Remote Operating Station (ROS) will also be incorporated into the HCVS design as described in NEI 13-02 section 4.2.2.1.2. 1. The controls and indications at the ROS location will be accessible and functional under a range of plant conditions, including severe accident conditions with due consideration to source term and dose impact on operator exposure, extended Joss of AC power (ELAP), and inadequate containment cooling. An evaluation will be performed to determine accessibility to the location, habitability, staffing sufficiency, and communication capability with Vent-use decision makers (EOP/SOP/SAMG). [OPEN ITEM 9: Evaluate HCVS monitoring location for accessibility. habitability, staffing sufficiency, and communication capability with vent-use decision makers] The wetwell HCVS will include means to monitor the status of the vent system in both the MCR and the ROS. Included in the existing design of the torus hardened vent (THV) are control switches in the MCR with valve position indication. These THV controls currently meet the environmental and seismic requirements of the Order for the plant severe accident and will be upgraded to address ELAP. Control and indication of the wetwell HCVS valves will be duplicated at the ROS. The ability to open/close these valves multiple times during the event's first 24 hours will be provided by two air accumulator tanks and station service batteries, supplemented by installed backup battery power sources. Beyond the first 24 hours, the ability to maintain these valves open or closed will be accomplished through the use of replaceable nitrogen bottles and FLEX generators. The wetwell HCVS will include indications for vent temperature and effluent radiation levels at both the MCR and ROS. Other important information on the status of supporting systems, such as power source status and pneumatic supply pressure, will also be included in the design and located to support HCVS operation. The wetwell HCVS includes existing Drywell Pressure and Suppression Pool level indication in the MCR to monitor vent operation. This monitoring instrumentation provides the indication from the MCR as per Requirement 1.2.4 and will be designed for sustained operation during an ELAP event. Component reliable and rugged performance The HCVS downstream of the second containment isolation valve, including piping and supports, electrical power supply, valve actuator pneumatic supply, and instrumentation (local and remote) components, will be designed/analyzed to conform to the requirements consistent with the applicable design codes (e.g., Non-safety, Cat l, SS and 300# ASME or B3l.1, NEMA 4, etc.) for the plant and to ensure functionality following a design basis earthquake. The torus hardened vent (THY) system was originally installed to satisfy the requirements of Generic Letter 89-16. The modifications associated with the THV vent were performed under the provisions of 10CFR50.59 and thus the Plant Hatch THV was designed, analyzed, and implemeqted consistent with the design basis of the plant. The current design will be evaluated to confirm that the existing system, coupled with current and planned modifications to upgrad~ the THV to a hardened containment vent system (HCVS), will meet the requirements of Order EA-13-109 and remain OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 19 of 66 December 6, 2015

The instrumentation/power supplies/cables/connections (components) will be procured for use under the temperature, pressure, radiation level, total integrated dose radiation for the effluent vent pipe and HCVS ROS location. (reference HCVS-FAQ-08) Conduit design will be installed to Seismic Class 1 criteria. Both existing and new barriers will be used to provide a level of protection from missiles when required. (reference HCVS-WP-04) Augmented quality requirements, will be applied to the components installed in response to this Order. In addition to these design requirements, providing sufficient channel separation (by distance and/or protective barriers) will minimize the likelihood of a common cause event which adversely affects both divisions of the containment isolation valves when the control for these valves is provided at the ROS. Separation will be in accordance with Plant Hatch electrical design criteria (ref. RG 1.75 and IEEE 384). If the instruments are purchased as commercial-grade equipment, they will be procured suitable to operate under severe accident environment as required by NRC Order EA-13-1 09 and the guidance of NEI 13-02. The equipment procurement will utilize the following guidance for seismic per IEEE 344, environment per IEEE 323, and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) per RG 1.180. These qualifications will be bounding conditions for Plant Hatch. The qualification for the equipment by the supplier will be validated by SNC for the specific location at Plant Hatch to ensure that the bounding conditions envelope the specific plant conditions. For the instruments required after a potential seismic event, the following methods will be used to verify that the design and installation is reliable I rugged and thus capable of ensuring HCVS functionality following a seismic event. Applicable instruments are rated by the manufacturer (or otherwise tested) for seismic impact at levels commensurate with those of postulated severe accident event conditions in the area of instrument component use using one or more of the following methods:

  • demonstration of seismic motion will be consistent with that of existing design basis loads at the installed location;
  • substantial history of operational reliability in environments with significant vibration with a design envelope inclusive of the effects of seismic motion imparted to the instruments proposed at the location;
  • ade.quacy of seismic design and installation is demonstrated based on the guidance in Sections 7, 8, 9, and 10 of IEEE Standard 344-2004, IEEE Recommended Practice for Seismic Qualification of Class IE Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations, or a substantially similar industrial standard;
  • demonstration that proposed devices are substantially similar in design to models that have been previously tested for seismic effects in excess of the plant design basis at the location where the instrument is to be installed (g-levels and frequency ranges);
  • seismic qualification using seismic motion consistent with that of existing design basis loading at the installation location.

Ref: EA-13-109 Section 1.2.6 I NEI 13-02 Section 2.5, 4.2.2 The operation of the HCVS will be designed to minimize the reliance on operator actions for response to an ELAP and BDBEE hazards identified in part I of this OIP. Initial operator actions can be completed by Operators from the HCVS control station(s) and include remote-manual initiation. The operator actions required to open a vent path are as described in table 2- 1. Remote-manual is defined in this report as a non-automatic power operation of a component and does not require the operator to be at or in close proximity to the component. No other operator actions are required to initiate venting under the guiding procedural protocol. The HCVS will be designed to allow initiation, control, and monitoring of venting from the MCR in response to this Order. Both locations minimize plant operators' exposure to adverse temperature and radiological conditions and are protected from hazards assumed in Part I of this report. Permanently installed power and motive air/gas capability will be available to support operation and monitoring of the HCVS for 24 hours. Permanently installed equipment will supply air and power to HCVS for 24 hours before FLEX diesel generators will be required to be functional. System control:

i. Active: PCIVs are operated in accordance with EOPs/SOPs to control containment pressure. The HCVS is designed for a minimum of 8 open/close cycles under ELAP conditions over the first 24 hours following an ELAP, based on normal operating pressures. Controlled venting will be permitted in the revised EPGs and associated implementing EOPs, e.g., jumpers will be used to override the containment isolation circuit on the PC IV s needed to vent containment.

ii. Passive: Inadvertent actuation protection is provided by the current containment isolation circuitry associated with the PCIVs used to operate the HCVS. In addition, the HCVS isolation val ve is normally key-locked closed and has a rupture disc located downstream. This rupture disc has a burst set pressure above the header pressure (at the disc) expected during a design basis event. Breach of the rupture disc will occur outside of the MCR and will require manual operation.

Ref: EA-13-109 Section 1.2.10 I NEI 13-02 Section 2.3 First 24 Hour Coping Detail Provide a general description of the venting actions for first 24 hours using installed equipment including station modifications that are proposed. Ref: EA-13-109 Section 1.2.6/ NEI 13-02 Section 2.5, 4.2.2 The operation of the HCVS will be designed to minimize the reliance on operator actions for response to an ELAP and severe accident events. Severe accident event assumes that specific core cooling actions from the FLEX strategies identified in the response to Order EA-12-049 were unsuccessful and that core damage has occurred, up to and including a breach of the reactor vessel by molten core debris. Venting will occur without the need for manually breaching the rupture disc, since conditions in containment would be sufficient to burst the rupture disc without assistance from operators. Access to the reactor building will be restricted as determined by the RPV water level and core damage conditions. Initial actions will be completed by Operators in the Main Control Room (MCR) or at the HCVS Remote Operating Station (ROS) and will include remote-manual actions from a local gas cylinder station. The operator actions required to open a vent path were previously listed in the BDBEE Venting Part 2 section of this report. As stated in the Part 2 section on BDBEE Venting, the HCVS will be designed to allow initiation, control, and monitoring of venting from the MCR and will be capable of operation from a ROS to be installed as part of the response to this Order. Both locations minimize plant operators' exposure to adverse temperature and ra9iological conditions and are protected from hazards assumed in Part 1 of this document. Travel pathways will be reviewed for dose and temperature, and alternate routes may need to be considered to minimize operator exposure to harsh environmental conditions). Permanently installed power and motive air/gas capable will be available to support operation and mon itoring of the HCVS for 24 hours. System control:

1. Active: PCIVs are operated in accordance with EOPs to control containment pressure. The HCVS is designed for a minimum of 8 open/close cycles of the isolation valve under ELAP conditions over the first 24 hours following an ELAP. HCVS venting will be directed per the SAMGs. Jumpers will be used to override the containment isolation circuit on the PCIVs needed to vent containment.
u. Passive: Inadvertent actuation protection is provided by the current containment isolation circuitry
                !associated with the PCIVs used to operate the HCVS . In ad9ition, the HCVS isolation valve is normally key-locked closed and has a rupture disc located downstream. This rupture disc has a burst set pressure above the header pressure (at the disc) expected during a design basis event.

3. l .A: Severe Accident Water Management (SA WM)
3. J.B: Severe Accident DW Vent (545 deg F)

Chart on Attachment 2./.C lists the plant-specific information to support SAWA and SAWM actions. Provide a sequence of events and identify any time constraint required for success including the basis for the time constraint. SAWA and SAWM or SADV Actions supporting SA conditions that have a time constraint to be successful should be identified with a technical basis and a justification provided that the time can reasonably be met (for example, a walkthrough of deployment). Actions already identified under the HCVS part of this template need not be repeated here. The time to establish the water addition capability into the RPV or DW should be less than 8 hours from the onset of tlze los of all injection sources.

  • Electrical generators satisfying the requirements of EA-12-049 may be credited for powering components and instrumentation needed to establish a flow path.
  • Time Sensitive Actions (TSAs) for the purpose of SA WA are those actions needed to transport, connect and start portable equipment needed to provide SA WA flow or provide power to SA WA components in the flow path between the connection point and the RPV or drywell. Actions needed to establish power to SA WA instrumentation should also be included as TSAs.

Ref: NEI 13-02 Section 6.1.1.7.4.1, 1.1.4, 1.1.5 The operation of the HCVS using SAWA will be designed to minimize the reliance on operator actions in response to hazards listed in Part 1. Initial operator actions will be completed by plant personnel and will include the capability for remote-manual initiation from the MCR using control switches, at MCC/Busses in the Control Building and locally at the intake structure. In addition, HCVS operation may occur at the ROS on the 147'elevation in the Control Building. Timelines (see attachments 2 and 2.1.A for SAWA and SAWM) were developed to identify required operator response times and actions. The timelines are an expansion of Attachment 2 and begin either as core damage occurs (SAWA) or after initial SAWA injection is established and as flowrate is adjusted for option B.2 (SA WM). The timelines are appropriate for both in-vessel and ex-vessel core damage conditions. OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 30 of 66 December 6, 2015

  • 7.5 Hours - Establish electrical power and other EA-12-049 actions needed to support the strategies for EA 109, Phase 1 and Phase 2. Action being taken within the reactor building under EA-12-049 conditions after RPV level lowers to 2/3 core height must be evaluated for radiological conditions assuming permanent containment shielding remains intact. (HCVS-FAQ-12) All other actions required are assumed to be in-line with the FLEX timeline submitted in accordance with the EA-12-049 requirements.
  • Less than 8 Hours- Initiate SAWA flow to the RPV. Having the HCVS in service will assist in minimizing the peak DW pressure during the initial cooling conditions provided by SAWA.

Ref: EA-13-109 Attachment 2, Section B.2.2, B.2.3/ NEI13-02 Section 1.1.6, 1.1.4.4 It is anticipated that SAW A will be used in Severe Accident Events based on presumed failure of injection systems or presumed failure of injection systems in a timely manner. This does not preclude the use of the SAWA system to supplement or replace the EA-12-049 injection systems if desired. SAWA will consist of both portable and installed equipment. The motive force equipment needed to support the SAWA strategy shall be available prior to t=8 hours from the loss of injection (assumed at T=O). The SAW A flow path includes methods to minimize exposure of personnel to radioactive liquids I gases and potentially flammable conditions by inclusion of backflow prevention. The check valve is integral with the pump skid and will close and prevent leakage when the SAW A pump is secured. RHR LPCI injection mode has installed ECCS backflow prevention devices ( 112E II-F050NB) qualified for accident scenarios. Description of SAW A actions for first 24 hours: T<l hr:

Equipment has been evaluated to remain operational throughout the Sustained Operating period. Personnel exposure and temperature I humidity conditions for operation of SAWA equipment will not exceed the limits for ERO dose and plant safety guidelines for temperature and humidity. The flow path will be from the FLEX suction in the Altamaha river through the FLEX pumps with 4 outlets with individual flow indicators. One indicator will be dedicated to the unit in a Severe Accident, and the flow will be monitored that is pro ided to the RHR service water FLEX header. The monitored water flow rate will pass through the RHRSW piping to the Reactor Building where it will connect with the RHR system by opening MOV s from the MCR that interconnect the systems. The flow will then be directed into the RPV via the LPCI injection valves. Cross flow into other portions of the RHR system will be isolated by ensuring closure of the MOV s from the MCR. DW pressure and Suppression Pool level will be monitored and flow rate will be adjusted by use of the FLEX pump control valve at the Intake Structure. Communication will be established between the MCR and the FLEX pump location. MOV s will be powered from the FLEX diesel generators connected as described in the EA-12-049 compliance documents. The MOVs will be operated in series (not parallel) to limit the potential for overloading the FLEX DGs. The FLEX DGs are located near the Control Building which is significantly away from the discharge of the HCVS at the Main Meteorological Stack.

  • SA WM can be maintained for> 7 days without the need for a cbywell vent to maintain pressure below PCPL or containment design pressure, whichever is lower.

o Under this approach, no detail concerning plant modifications or procedures is necessmy with respect to how alternate containment heat removal will be provided.

  • SA WM can be maintained for at least 72 hours, but less than 7 days before containment pressure reaches PCPL or design pressure, whichever is lower.

o Under this approach, afunctional description is required of how alternate containment heat removal might be established before containment pressure reaches PCPL or design pressure whichever is lower. Under this approach, physical plant modifications and detailed procedures are not necessary, but written descriptions of possible approaches for achieving alternate containment heat removal and pressure control will be provided.

  • SA WM can be mabztainedfor <72 hours SAWM strategy can be implemented but for less than 72 hours before containment pressure reaches PCPL or design pressure whichever is lower.

o Under this approach, afunctional description is required of how alternate containment heat removal might be established before containment pressure reaches PCPL or design pressure whichever is lower. Under this approach, physical plant modifications and detailed procedures are required to be implemented to insure achieving alternate containment heat removal and pressure control will be provided for the sustained operating period. Ref: NEI 13-02 Appendix C.7 SA WM can be maintained for> 7 days without the need for a drywell vent to maintain pressure below PCPL. Basis for SA WM time frame SA WM can be maintained > 7 days: Plant Hatch is bounded by the evaluations performed in BWROG TP-15-0 11 and representative of the reference plant in NEI 13-02 figures C-2 through C-6. Instrumentation relied upon for SAWM operations is DW pressure and Suppression Pool level. Both of which are initially powered by station batteries and then by the FLEX (EA-12-049) generator which is placed in-service prior to core breach. The DG will provide power throughout the Sustained Operation period (7 days) . (C.7.1.4.2) DW Temperature monitoring is not a requirement for compliance with Phase 2 of the order, but some knowledge of temperature characteristics provides information for the operation staff to evaluate plant conditions under a severe accident and provide confirmation to adjust SAWA flow rates (C.8.3.1) Suppression Pool level indication is !maintained throughout the Sustained Operation period, so th~ HCVS remains in-service. The time to reach the level at which the WW vent must be secured is>?days using SAWM flowrates (C.6.3, C.7.1.4.3) OIP Phase 1 and Phase 2 Rev. 1 Page 36 of 66 December 6, 2015

Enclosure to NL-15-2121 Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 Hardened Containment Venting System (HCVS) Phase 1 and 2 Overall Integrated Plan Attachment 2.1.0: SAWM SAMG Approved Language The following general cautions, priorities and methods will be evaluated for plant specific applicability and incorporated as appropriate into the plant specific SAMGs using administrative procedures for EPGISAG change control process and implementation. SAMGs are symptom based guidelines and therefore address a wide variety of possible plant conditions and capabilities while these changes are intended to accommodate those specific conditions assumed in Order EA-13-109. The changes will be made in a way that maintains the use of SAMGs in a symptom based mode while at the same time addressing those conditions that may exist under extended loss of AC power (El.AP) conditions with significant core damage including ex-vessel core debris. Actual Approved Language that will be incorporate d into site SAMG* Cautions:

  • Addressing the possible plant response associated with adding water to hot core debris and the resulting pressurization of the primary containment by rapid steam generation.
  • Addressing the plant impact that raising suppression pool water level above the elevation of the suppression chamber vent opening elevation will flood the suppression chamber vent path.

Priorities: With significant core damage and RPV breach, SAMGs prioritize the preservation of primary containment integrity while limiting radioactivity releases as follows :

      .!.__ Core debris in the primary containment is stabilized by water addition (SAWA)
  • Primary containment pressure is controlled below the Primary Containment Pressure Limit (Wetwell venting)
  • Water addition is managed to preserve the Mark IIII suppression chamber vent paths, thereby retaining the benefits of suppression pool scrubbing and minimizing the likelihood of radioactivity and hydrogen release into the secondary containment (SAWM)

Methods: Identify systems and capabilities to add water to the RPV or drywell, with the following generic guidance:

  • Use controlled injection if possible.
  • Inject into the RPV if possible.

Maintain injection from external sources of water as low as possible to preserve suppression chamber vent capability.

  • Actual language may vary by acceptable site procedure standards, but intent and structure should follow this guidance.
