11. RefUeling."

Redundant sources of diesel fuel are available for refueling.the S' AFW DIG, 100 kW D/G, the dieSel driven.FLEX pumps, the diesel driven portable-Alternate RCS Injectionpump, and the~srnaller diesel generators. Two fuel trailers, each with 990 gal'lOns df ultra-low sulfur fuelI, are station~ed at the sitd.-TheY are Stored sO as to be separated by the wid~th 'of the site-

.specific tornado (-1Q40 feet),-

.accounting for the pirevailing tornado directionlfor the region. Each fuel trailer has the neceSsary. fuel transfer equipment, once deployed jthe trailers can be refilled from.the onsite fuel oil storage tanks.

12. Debris Re~moval!/Equiprment TranSportation.

-The site has a Case 621 pay loader, as well as a Ford F-:350,pickuP truck with a snow plow, to remove debris Caused by a BDBEE:' Each yehicle is also equipped With equipment to check for live.wires in downed power lines. Each vehicle is also equip~ped with a pintle hitch, Which can be used to transport mitigation equipment, such as the 100 kW D/G, the.portable Satellite trailer', the FLEX pumps, the fu~el trailers, the "hose.trailers, and :the air compressors to their deployment points.

Primary and alternate deployment, routes for Phase 2 portable FLEX equipment are

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Report of Full Compliance With Order EA-12-049 JanUary 4, 2016 Page 18 identified in GN-WP-0O1, BDBEE Debris Removal for qinna Station. Ginna Station*

has designated a-Case 621 F Pay..loader and a Ford F350 4-wheel drive (equipped with a snow plow) as the debris removal! t'ransport equipmenit.. The Case 621 FPay loader is stored out'side to the sout'h (near the W hite Barnf), outside-of the PrOtected Area. The Ford F350 4-wheel drive is stored *inside the L-Buifding, inside of the Protected Area.

These specific locations provide over 1040 ft.

of separati~on to. satisfy the tornado "diverse locations'", storage requirements for FLEX equipment per. NEI 12-06. The.boun ding case is to use the Case 621 F Loader to provide debris removal capabilities in the event of a to'rnado event *th at passes through the Protect Area. Based on NEI 12-06 gUidance regarding aCCeptable separation distance and t'0rnado travel path, it is assumed that the Ford F35.0, located on site is una~vailable because it isrnot stored within a tornado rnissile hardened structure. it is also assumed that if a tornado eVent was to impact the Case_"Loader, it would not dir6ctly impact the F350 stored,in the L-Building. A tornado event is judged bounding for debris removal.efforts for. other beyond design basis evenfts, including snow, high winds, and floods.

In the event of site impacting torrnado event, the Case 621F Loader would be required to travel approximately 1/2 Of a mnile Of publiC roadway and approximately 1/2 of a mile of station access roadways to reach the on-Site storage locations for the FLEX mitigation equipment. From the furthest poirnt of stored location for FLEX equipmernt, it is also

.approximately 3/4 of a mile to the final point of use, dependent on avaialability of the primary and alternate routes.,. Engineering walk.downs of the Case 621 F loader deployment path have identified a number of poten'tial~debris sources. When loader is deployed from the White Barn area, the equipment operator may encounter downed power lines. The operator.shall find any alternate path around the downed lines. If no

U..S. Nuclear Re~gulatory Commission Repbort of Full Corhpliance with Order EA-12-049 January 4, 2Q16 Page 19 alternate path exist(s, the o~pe'rator shall obtaih shift manager. or site Emergency birector Authorization to check lines with an

.availab~le proximity deVice, Verify safe, and '

drive over or cut lines as required.

As the loader proceeds West on Lake road, the operator encounters approximately 1/4 mile section of a moderately woode'd area, with mixed species of hard and soft woods, averaging less than 12" diameter at the trtink.

The Case Loader has a lifting capacity of

  • 18,684 lbs., and is equipped with a grapple bucket, proyiding the 'capability to,capture the er~itire tree to the bucket, lifting it, and.

relocating if required.

The Case 621F loader 9i ca.pable of simultaneously pushin~g multiple trees of average Size to the Side of the road. :In the lowest gearing and at.maximum torque operating range, the loader will be operating at approximately 3 mph. With a conservative aSSumption of 15 reversin'g and clearing debris cy'cles of 1 minute each (15 MinUtes),

travel through the 1/4 mile of the moderately wooded area at 3 mph (5 Minutes), it :is calculatedl that the C*ase 621 F loader will clear the maximum, expected de~bris through the moSt challenging section of the off-site deployment path in 30 min~utes, including addressing downed power lines (10 Minutes).

The remainder of the deployment Path to the Protected Area is*lessthan 1 1/2milesand will have minimal debris, based on Surrounding

  • landscape, terrain and structures. The loader has~a maximum road speed travel of 24 mph, but for this assessment Only 6 mph travel speed will be considered. Assuming an average of 61mph travel speed the loader is travel the.remaining 1 1/2/ miles to the Protected.Area iri 15 minutes. With additional conservative assiumption of 10 reverse and clear: de'briscycles of 1 minute each (10 Minutes) and addressing additional downed power lines (10 Minutes),'it is expected thatthe Case 621 F loader will require an additional 35 minutes to arrive at

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Report of Full Compliance With Order EA-12-049 January 4, 2016 Page 20 the Protected Area.

once th* 'loader :has entered the PA, an addit'ional 3/4, of a mile of travel1 path must be cleared for either the primary or alternate routes from equipmnent storage locations.

The twp protected storage Iodatioris are the har~dened sea vans..west of engineering building an~nex (Pr~ject aUilling).and the SAFW Annex.

BaSed on engineering studies of tornado damnages and deb~ris field at industrial sites, it is not expected that building structures or on-site materials or equipment would provide significant debris, removal challengesfor the Case 621 F loader or:Ford 350. The 150' tall

'high mast lighting towers are assumed to~fail under a beyond design basis event. Given available dePloyment routes, it is possible that high mast lights may be Within.the debris field but :it is reasdnable to expeCt that pOles-will not be blgckinrg the alternate.path. Given the width of travei routes available it is expected that the d~eblris equipment will be able to bypass high mast lights. Therefore, assuming an average of 6 mph tr'avel speed the l0ader can travel the remaining 1 1/22 miles inside the P5rotected Area in 15 minUtes

(.Primary and Alternate route combi'ned).

.With a conservative assufrnption of 10-reverse and clear debris cycles of:t minute each (10 Minutes) andl addressing any additional on-site downed power lines (10 Minutes), it is exp~ected that the Case 621 F loader wi!l require an additional 35 minutes trav~el time.

In conclusion, it has beenh established that all pote~ntial and credible debris along the travel path from the most distant and diversely located debris removal equipment can be cleared in 100o minutes for a worst case' scenario for-debris removal effort. To add fur-ther conservatism to timeline studies, the debris removal time will be rounded up to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />.

OIP Open Item 50 Per'form an analysis of the containment function to determine the mitigating strategy acceptance Criteria for an ELAP / LUHS event.

The mitigating Strategy~acceptance criteria is to maintain Containment presSure below the design pressure of 6.0psig, and Containment temperature below the containment d.esign temp4eratlire of 286°F (UFSAR Table 3.11-1).

For Mode 1, thle analysis :shows that *with no oper'ator.actions, containment-pressure will slowly inbrease to less than 20 p sig.over 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> and containment ternperature.will slowly increase to 220°F overi the same 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. Since 20 psig is below containment design pressure of 60 psig :(UFSAR Table 3.11-1) and. 220°F. is below the c6ntainment designi temperature of 286°F (UFSAR Table 3.11-1 ), no~mitigation acdtions are n6_cessary to 'maintain or restore Containment cooling during Phases 1.or 2.

Mode 5 ELAP containment temperatures are predicted to plateau below 2500°F if the containment is vented based on RWA-1403, 001. Ginna Station's Mode 5 strategy plans include venting the Corhtainment during Phase 2, RHR heat remOval, and also establishment of lake flow to the cRF=Cs so tihatOontainmen't can be isolate'd.

ForModes 1 through 4, to minimize challenging instrument operation in Containment, actions can be taken during Phase 3 to maintain 'c~ntairnment pressure less than 20: psig, which is below the containment design pressure of 6Q psig.

These are stationarY 0-rings that Crea-te a seal ion the bottom side of the precision machined cera.m. ic faceplate and associated housing.

Failure of these 0-rings woild res.ult in i~ncreased leakage to the inlet of the number 2'seal.. This leakage would be contained_

(and limited) by the number 2seal and the flow, restricting venturi n the seal return linle.

The clearance between.the ceramic facePlate and the corresponding stainless steel.seal support housirng is applroximately 0.002 inch as-shown :in Table 6-1 of WCAP-1 0541, Revision 2.

The remai~ning four 7228-B comnpound o~rings (Westinighouse P/N 4389B72E75, 620B492E79 and 4395B55E06) ar[e all located in stationary locations in the, #2 seal housing or downstream of the #2 seal.

coniditions based on the lowest SG Relief valve setting for Qinna of.1085 psig at" saturation conditions equates to 556.3°F.

The ent~halpy..-at this~c0ndition (2250 psi,.I556.30 F) iS 555 Btu/lbrn. Assuming isenthalpic expansion of the fluid through the #l1:seal, 'the following coniditions will exist, at the outlet of the #1 seal (inlet to

  1. 2 seal): P = 951 psia, H = 555 Btu/Ibm, T = 5390°F. This shows that the highest exPeCted temperature at the #2 Seal ring and downstream locations would~be less thanthe 550°F qualification test temperature. Therefore., there is no

-eleva'tedl temperature oncern for these 0'-rinigs.

Maximum PossibleTime at Elevated Tempjeratures The maximi'rm RCS cold leg temperature during ELAP Conditions based on the lowest SO Relief Valve setpoint.(saturated conditions at 1085 psig) is 556.3°F. During anEFLAP event, the RCS average

.temperatures is assumed to be the no load temperatureiof 547.F. This is adhieved by local operator action (ECA-0.0 Step 3 RNO, per Phase 2 staffing study) comp!eting at T+30 minutes. The Tcold at these co'nditions will be' appr6ximatel~i 5300°F. It.is important to note that th~e Model 93 RCP includes a 54.5 gallon volume of '1200F cold water that will last fOr approximately 27 minutes before RCS water at

'556.3 0F reaches the #1 seal. This time. assumes the historical value of 2 gprn seal leak-off from the B RCP.

Based on this sequence, the maximum time the #1.seal 0-r~ings maY. be expOsed to RCS water above 5500 F is estimated to be -10 minutes.(3 minutes from depletion of purge volume until the start bf operator action to establish 547°F plus 7i minutes to establish 547°F). This assumption is conservative since heat capacitanlce.of the thermal barrier, main flange, seal housing, pump shaft and bearing will likely prevent the temperature from exceeding 550°F.

Applied forces to the system poipe SUpports will not inrciease by mor~e than 1V554% as was previously CAlculated.

Since the seal leak-off piping and support stresses are not expected to increase by more than 1.5514% these may reac~h a point tchat is beyond the code~allowable limits.

However, based On tlhis minimal incirease the Stresses Will not reach the Vield point since the code limits maintain stresses well below the yield point.,The piping and supports will not fail and will maintain their function during the event.

In addition, the SDTAR analyses and associated Pipe Support analyses were reviewed for margin. Despite the increase in temperature, code allowable stress limits ~are expected to be met for the Piping and Supports during the BDB Event.

The piping downstream of the breakdown orifices is not qualifi=ed to withstand RCS pressures and temperatures. If the pipe were to rupture beYond the orif ices, then RCS leakage would still be maintained sihce the breakdown orifices would remain intact.

The stresses g~enerated from an event described herein are independent from earthqua~kes SO that Equation '12 is not required to be considered.

Equation 11 of B31.1 evaluates the piping for pressure and deadweight stresses. The pressure used by all three analyses for Equation 11 was 2485 psig.

The p~iping downstreamn of the breakdown orifices is 'not qualified to Withstand RCS pressures-and temperatur'es. If the pipe were to rupture beyohd the orifices, then RCS leakage, would still be maintained since the breakdown orifices would remain 'intact.

Since all piping and components upstream of the breakdown flow meters is high presSure/temperature rated, no operator action is credited for isolating anY low pressure piping portions.

No modifications to thea SLO piping are necessary as structural integrity will be maintained.

The components down'strelam of the flow meters past the piping class break as identified on the 'piping isometrics may be susceptibleto over p~ressurization: Since these COmponents are downstream 'of the flow r'estricting *flow meters which provide choked flow, the Seal leak rate W ould not worsen.

The reqUired flood barriers used by Ginna are stored immediately adjacent to the openings in-which they are to be* installed. 'The installation of.thes~ebarri~ers is performed on an annual frequ~ency-for testing.' Ginna has a~lso validated that the barriers can.be installed' rapidly during a.rea~s~nabl e simulation

The. above~tornado prote'ctiondesign'criteria are 'consistent With Ginna's current design

.therefore meets 'the.requiremehnts of NEI 12-06, Section 7.3.1'.1.

Ginna has designed tornadoprotection based on these-ddsign criter'ia.

2.1.4 Snow, ice, and Extreme Cold:

The guidelines~provided in *NEI 12-06 (Section 8.2.1) generally include the need to consider extreme Snowfall at plant -sites Above the 3 5 th parallel.

Ginnha is located at latitude 43*1 6.7'NJ and longitude *77°18:7'W.. Ginna is located above the 3 5 th parallel (Reference 25, Section 2.1.1)'; thus, -the capability,to 'addiress hindrances caused by extrertie snowfall with snow removal equip~menqt is provided.

Per Section 8.2.1 of NEI 12-06, "It will be assumed that th~is same basic trend applies to extremely low temperatures." The lowest recorded temperature for the site region is -16°F (Reference 63).

Ginna is located within the region characterized by the Electric Power Research Institute (EP'RI).as ice severity level 5 (Reference 4, Figure 8-2).I Thus, Ginna screens in for assessing Snow, ice, and extreme cold.

2.1.5 High Temperatures:

Per NEI 12-06 Section 9.2, all sites will address high temperatures for impact on deployment of FLEX equipment. The maximum temperature observed for the site region has~been 100oF (Ref~erence 63). Extreme high' temperatures ar'e not expected to impaict the utilization of off-site resources or the ability of personnel to implement the required FLEX Strategies.

Thus, Ginna screens in for assessing High' Temperatures.

FLEX equipment can operate uhder extreme hot and cold temperatures,. Flex Pu~mps (3),

the' portable Alternate RCS Injection pump, the air cormpreSsors.(2), and the Flex.100 KW Diesel Generator are all equipped with engine block heaters and battery tenders.

Two FLEX Pump units, the portable Alternate RCS Injection. pump, an air cOmpressor, and the 100o KW DIG are stored in a commercial structu~re with the 3rd Flex Pump stored in a robust structure (SAFW Annex) that is protected'from floods, tornados, and Page 13 of 121

""GiNNA FINAL iNTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC oRDER EA-1 2-049) earthquakes. One compressor is stored in a robust s~tructure. The robust, Structures are temperature cont*o11ed as wvell.

For the *100 IKWN DIG the design temperature specifications for the co ntrol un'it indicate a rangeel'o minus 40F Fto.158F Fwith'an Engine Derate indicated for arhnbient temnperatures greater than 1220F. This temperature range bounds those experienced at Ginna.

For the Flex Pump engine there is no max amhbient tern~erature indicated in the specifications. Only if the operating i(coolant) temp~erature in dicates greater than 234°F is it.recommended th~at load be reduced on' theen~gine. For cold w'e~ther" conrcerns a b'lock Iheater is reco'mmended for temperatures down to (0°F, which is "Currently used.

aThe event impedes site access as follows: (NEI 1.2-01,,Reference 5,).

o Post event time: 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> -

No site access. This duration reflects the 'time necessary to clear' roadway obstructions, use different travel routes, mobilize alternate transpdrtation capabilities (e~g., private resource providers or public

-sector support), etc.

o Post event time: 6 to 24 hourS - Limited site access. Individuals may access* the site by walking, personal, vehicle or via-'alternate' transportation capabilities (e.g.,

private resource providers or public sector support).

o Post event time: 24+ hours - Improved site.access. Site ~access is restored to a near-normal status and/or augmen~ed transPortation resources are available to deliver equipment, sui~plies and large numbers of personnel.

  • The normal,emergency response capabilities are used as defibied in *th e faci~lity emergency, plan, as. augmented by. NE[ 12-01, Guideline for Assessing Beyond Design' Basis Acciden ft Resp~nse $tatffing and Communications Capabilities.

Followin~g plant conditions exist for the baseline ELAP case:

o seismically designed Direct Current (DC) b~attery banks are available.

o se'ismical.ly deSign~ed Alternating,Current (AC) and DC distribution available.

o Entry into EXtended Loss of AC Power (ELAP) will occur by'the one hour point.

o Best estimate decay heat load analysis and decay heat is used to establish operator time,and action.

o All installed eme-rgency and Station Blackout (SBO) AC sourceS are not available.

o No additional failure of Structures, Systems, or" Components (sscs) is assumed.

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049)

The recommendation to develop inventory coping times beyond the reference case by installing low leakage RCP seals was evaluated by Ginna, but will not be implemented due to the 10 CFR Part 21 issue that was identified by Westinghouse for their low leakage seals. As documented in WCAP-17601 Section 5.3.1.6, Ginna has the added benefit of coping time with its Model 93 RCPs (Reference 80) due to the leak donor locations being significantly elevated with respect to the Model 93A RCPs.

Regarding the WCAP-17601 high level list of instrumentation for the RCS, in order to confirm / maintain adequate core cooling, Ginna is crediting instrumentation that has been previously evaluated as acceptable for coping with seismic, flooding, tornados, and loss of AC power events and are part of Ginna's current licensing basis. These instruments are described in the Integrate Plan and meet the NEI 12-06 guidance for PWR instrumentation in Section 3.2.1.10. These instruments support the key actions identified in plant procedures and/or guidance. This approach was accepted in the R.

E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant -

Interim Staff Evaluation Relating to Overall Integrated Plan in Response to Order EA-12-049 (Reference 68), Section 3.2.1.5, Monitoring Instrumentation and Controls.

FSG-7, Loss of Vital Instrumentation or Control Power (Reference 81), provides Operators the ability to obtain system parameters should the power to the instruments be lost or wiring damage that precludes the instrument from being read in the Control Room. The Operator will be able to obtain a reading in the Control Room (wiring intact) or at the Containment Penetration (field wiring not intact).

The recommendation for maintaining a subcritical condition in the reactor core is applicable to Ginna.

FLEX specific cycle generated curves will not be used for maintaining subcritical conditions. To supplement the existing cycle specific curves, bounding actions to maintain subcritical conditions are implemented in procedures.

CALC-201 4-0002, Cycle 38 Reactor Engineering Calculations (Reference 20), adds a new Section 8.23 and Attachment 11 for FLEX Boration Strategies. Depending on the scenario evaluated, a 40% or 15% uncertainty was applied to bound the calculation for elevated boron concentrations that may be applicable to future core designs. Since makeup to the RCS is required to maintain adequate inventory for natural circulation cooling, expectations are that the borated makeup strategy will provide adequate shutdown margin (Keff less than 0.99) for the realistic conditions and assumptions cited in WCAP-1 7601.

The recommendation to supply 40 gpm of RCS makeup at 1500 psia is applicable to Ginna. A modification installed Alternate RCS Injection makeup capability of 75 gpm at 1500 psig. Makeup will be initiated prior to the transition from two-phase natural circulation to reflux boiling and with sufficient time to maintain shutdown margin with an hour margin for natural circulation conditions.

As stated under recommendation 2 above, the recommendation to install low leakage seals was evaluated by Ginna but will not be implemented due to the 10 CFR Part 21 issue that was identified for the Westinghouse low leakage seal design.

The recommendation to consider the prioritization of pre-staging a FLEX strategy for alternate feedwater additions, when time and resources permit, is applicable to Ginna. The primary FLEX strategy for alternate feedwater additions relies upon a SAFW pump powered by the SAFW D/G, which is an approved alternative in the R.

E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant -

Interim Staff Evaluation Relating to Overall Integrated Plan in Response to Order EA-12-049 (Reference 68). In addition, the alternate strategy for feedwater addition relies upon one portable diesel driven FLEX pump and associated hoses stored in the new SAFW Annex (robust structure)

Page 23 of 121

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049) capable of feeding the steam generators.

Deployment involves hooking up the suction and discharge hoses to the new condensate storage tank and AFW lines respectively, which are in close proximity to the portable diesel driven pump, and then perform the valve alignment, start the pump, and begin feeding. To prevent S/G overfill when the TDAFW pump is available, ECA-0.0 (Reference 22) directs the operators to monitor intact SIG levels and when narrow range level is GREATER THAN 7% [25% adverse CNMT] and to control AFW by throttling TDAFW flow control valves, or by throttling TDAFW pump discharge MOV-3996, or by locally throttling TDAFW flow control valves, or by starting and stopping the TDAFW pump.

  • The recommendation to have a low pressure portable feedwater system capable of feeding the steam generators is applicable to Ginna.

Ginna's flow and pressure requirements differ from the generic numbers provided in the recommendation, but it is noted that the recommended requirements may vary from one plant to another.

The flow and pressure applicable to Ginna, which is stated in the Overall Integrated Plan, is 215 gpm and 290 psig.

The pressure value is based on the ECA-0.0 Appendix A (Reference 22) direction to cooldown the RCS when establishing low pressure S/G feed by reducing steam generator pressure to 290 psig; and the flow value is based on the design flow for a SAFW pump, which meets decay heat removal requirements. As stated under recommendation 1 above, symmetric ROS cooldown will be performed utilizing both steam generators for RCP seal package temperature considerations.

  • The recommendation to evaluate the strategy for accumulator makeup capability and isolation / venting to prevent gas injection is applicable to Ginna. EOA-0.0 Appendix A (Reference 22) directs operators to Depressurize Intact S/Gs to 290 psig when establishing low pressure S/G feed and then Perform FSG-1 0, Passive RCS Injection Isolation (Reference 82), to isolate or vent the SI Accumulators, thereby preventing N2 injection to the ROS.

Boration requirements have been determined and are discussed under recommendation 4 above and are implemented in procedures EOA-0.0 (Reference 22) and FSG-1, Long Term RCS Inventory Control, (Reference 83).

  • The recommendation to consider the prioritization of staging portable equipment that may be required to isolate/vent the accumulators when certain cooldown maneuvers are necessitated is applicable to Ginna.

Following an ELAP event, there is a procedural requirement to cooldown/depressurize the ROS to reduce ROP seal leakage and to inject borated water from the SI Accumulators.

SI Accumulator injection replaces fluid lost from the RCP seals and increases shutdown margin. It is also important to ensure that nitrogen in the SI accumulators does not enter the RCS because that could impede natural circulation. The plan to avoid injecting nitrogen into the RCS is to isolate or vent the SI Accumulators as follows:

o FSG-10 (Reference

82) provides actions to isolate or vent the SI accumulators to prevent nitrogen injection. For ELAP events where electrical power is available from either the SAFW D/G or portable 100 KW D/G, and both MOO 'C' and MOO 'D' are accessible, power is restored to MOO '0' and MOO 'D' by opening all input and output breakers and powering the MOO's via a battery charger breaker. Once MOO '0' and MOO 'D" are energized, the SI Accumulator isolation valve breakers for MOV-841 and MOV-865 are closed and MOV-841 and MOV-865 are closed from the Control Room.

o If both MOO '0' and MOO 'D' cannot be repowered due to the ELAP event, or if the SI Accumulator isolation valves cannot be closed, then Instrument Air is established to Containment to vent the SI Accumulators.

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049) equipment, original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recommendations and considerations made within EPRI Technical Report 3002000623, Nuclear Maintenance Applications Center: Preventative Maintenance Basis for FLEX Equipment (Reference 116).

2.16 Brief Description of Procedures!/Strategies!/Guidelines Ginna utilized industry developed guidance from the PWROG, EPRI and NEI Task team to develop site specific procedures or guidelines to address the criteria in NEI 12-06.

These procedures and/or guidelines support (not replace) the existing symptom based command and control strategies in the current EOPs. Clear criteria for entry into FLEX Support Guidelines (FSGs) ensures that FLEX strategies are used only as directed for BDBEE conditions, and are not used inappropriately in lieu of existing procedures. The existing command and control procedure structure are used to transition to SAMGs if FLEX mitigation strategies are not successful.

FLEX strategies in the FSGs were evaluated for integration with the appropriate existing procedures. As such, FLEX strategies are implemented in such a way as to not violate the basis of existing procedures. Where FLEX strategies rely on permanently installed equipment, such as the new SAFW DG, changes were made to the AOPs and EOPs, as appropriate. FSGs are controlled under the site procedure control program.

FSGs were reviewed and validated by the involved groups to the extent necessary to ensure the strategy is feasible. Validation may have been accomplished via walk-throughs or drills of the guidelines.

Human factors are built into the processes for design and procedure development.

These are primarily based on INPO Good Practice 06-002.

These processes are followed throughout the project stages. Electrical cables are color coded as necessary in order to ensure proper connection.

Validation and verification was performed for the FLEX Support Guidelines and followed the NEI APC 14-17 Guidance Document, FLEX (Beyond Design Basis) Validation Process.

When plant systems are restored, exiting the FSGs and returning to the normal plant operating procedures are addressed by the plant's emergency response organization and operating staff, dependent on the actual plant conditions at the time.

The existing hierarchy for operating plant procedures remains relatively unchanged:

ECA-0.0, Loss of All AC Power (Reference 22), provides actions to respond to a loss of all AC power.

New procedure AP-ELEC.4, Loss of All AC Power while on Shutdown Cooling (Reference 117), provides actions to respond to a complete loss of all AC power while on shutdown (RHR) cooling.

ECA-0.0 and AP-ELEC.4 are the entry points for ELAP/LUHS events.

FSGs are entered from ECA-0.0, AP-ELEC.4 and if appropriate, other procedures.

Phase 3 FLEX Procedures - FSG-5, Initial Assessment and FLEX Equipment Staging Reference 109) discusses evaluation of long-term strategies using NSRC equipment.

This includes support of RHR pump operation (Attachment I, section B); makeup to the RWST using the boration skid (Attachment J); use of the DI Water Processing unit (FSG-6 (Reference 99), Attachment D); and Containment Cooling (FSG-12 (Reference Page 45 of 121

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049) 118), Attachment C).

When the equipment from the NSRC is a duplicate of site equipment (e.g., 480 volt generator) no explicit steps are provided in the FSGs.

2.17 Training SAFW DIG Modification Training was given during Training Cycle 14-06 to all Operations personnel.

All Operations personnel received FLEX Training during cycles 15-1 through 15-6 in 2015. Chemistry and RP personnel received FLEX Training prior to the 2015 Refueling Outage (RFO).

All Site Employees received "Generic Basic FLEX Initial" during 2015. Select Employees received "Generic Advanced FLEX" during 2015.

TSC personnel received FLEX training prior to the 2015 RFO. The Advanced FLEX training has been added to the qualifications required for select ERO personnel and Operations personnel.

New training of general station staff and Emergency Planning personnel was completed prior to the compliance date.

Training programs and controls are implemented in accordance with the Systematic Approach to Training (Reference 71).

2.18 Synchronization with Off-Site Resources Exelon has signed contracts and issued purchase orders to Pooled Inventory Management (PIM) for participation in the establishment and support of two (2) National SAFER Response Centers (NSRCs) through the Strategic Alliance for FLEX Emergency Response (SAFER).

Each NSRC holds five (5) sets of equipment, four (4) of which are able to be fully deployed when requested.

The fifth set of equipment will be in a maintenance cycle. The contract with PIM addressed the items in NEI 12-06, Section 12.2. Off-site equipment is procured through the SAFER organization. The NSRC plans to align with the EPRI templates for maintenance, testing and calibration of the equipment.

The two NSRCs are located in Phoenix Arizona and Memphis Tennessee. There are no designated alternate equipment sites; however, each site has agreed to enter portable FLEX equipment inventory into the Rapid Parts Mart, which is an internet based search capability currently used for other spare part needs. This capability provides a diverse network of potential alternate equipment sites for portable FLEX equipment.

The Ginna playbook for delivery of portable FLEX equipment from the NSRC to the site has been developed and approved (CC-G1-118-1001 Reference 119 and CC-G1-118-1002 (Reference 112)). The Ginna SAFER Response Plan contains information on the specifics of generic and site specific equipment obtained from the NSRC (summarized in FIP Table 1). It also contains the logistics for transportation of the equipment, staging area set up, and other needs for ensuring the equipment and commodities sustain the site's coping strategies.

Routes were evaluated for post-event conditions, and provisions for alternative transportation, such as airlifting, was considered in the plans.

The NSRC will provide requested portable FLEX equipment to a local staging area where the equipment will be serviced (e.g., fuel and lubricating oil) and made ready for transport to the site. The criterion for the local staging area is identified in the Ginna SAFER Response Plan, Sections 5 and 8.

Suitable local staging areas have been established for portable FLEX equipment to be delivered from the NSRC to the site.

'follows:

o The new :sAFW DIG will power the SAFW pumP, motors. The no0rmal Bus feed to the SAFW pumps will be isolated by manrual disconnect switches which are mechanically linked-to the connection.-switch feed from the SAFW :DIG, pr~event~ing an~y possibl e b~ckfeed ito.the SR 'BUs.

The disconnect is rated for fault current and the feed from the new SAFW D/G is protec~ted-from fault Current,by ove'rcuri~ent and over'voltage relay devices in the new switchgear. There is no robust alternate power supply to the SAFW D/G to feed the SAFW pumps. The alternate is a diesel drivJen pump.-

A summary of. the sizing.calculation for.the FLEX generators and details of loads connected to show that.they can supply the loads-assumed in Phases 2 and 3 is as follows:

e Load on the 1MW SAFw DG (48OVAC, 1250KVA) is 747KW per EDOC-MISC-2013-0044, Electrical I&C Impact Analysis Form for ECP-12-O000459, ECP 000424,.ECP-13-O00995, ECP-14-O000169 (Reference 124).

Section 5.5.9 presents the load in, KVA.

-A review of the subsections~feeding into the KVA rati.ng were reviewed and quantified to~be 747KW.

Loads.on the 100KW DIG (480VAC, 125KVA 120.42.Amps) are-2 Battery Chargers and.a BoOster pump, with single phase 1;5 HP motor. 'The full load current.of each battery charger is 56 Amps.

T~he' sin)gle phase 1.5 tHP Booster Pump draws less than 2 Amps. The 100 KW DIG will be able tO supply required full load current of 11i4 Amps.

oThe Phase 3.loading.is evaluated as 1127 amps (480 volts), per EDOC-MISC-201 5-0042, Fukushima FLEX Phase 3 Electrical Support Evaluation '(Reference 1!25), and is derived from.the operation of an SI. pump (410 amps),. Containment Recir:culation fan (351.amps), an RHR pump (232 amps), and a Charging pump (134 amps). The total of 1127 amps, with a 0.8 power factor, results in a load of 750 'kW.

Powering an existing SAFW Pump from the new SAFW DIG can be started within 43 minutes of event initiation and c~ntinue t9 operate througl* Phase 2. The feedwater flow path is' manually realigned to take suction from the new 160,000' gal SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank and u'se existing SR piping to feed the SIGs. SiG level will be maintained bY t hrottling SAFW Pump manual valves as directed by the "control room. ARVs.

_will. be manually/locally operated to remove heat from the system as directed by the control room.

Na~tural circulation will be maintained via" heat removal performed by the SIGs using a SAFW pUmp or a portable FLEX pump. Operators Will ensure that the new pro0tected SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank is being replenished from several water supplies; :Lake Ontario providing.the ultimate and indefinite Water source, with the SAFW pump providing the SIG ma~ke-up capability.

The. primary.Phase 2 coping strategy is to resupply the new SAFW Dl Water.Storage Tank from Lake Ontario, the UHS, using a: portable diesel driven pump and hoses. Core Page 50 of 121

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-1 2-049) system will be used to provide make-up water to the S/Gs from the new SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank or Lake Ontario.

To refill the SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank, any existing source of demineralized water on site will be preferentially used until the NSRC water treatment system arrives. The bounding FLEX scenario to refill the SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank will be to deploy a FLEX diesel driven portable pump with a hard suction hose to take suction from Lake Ontario and, via a discharge hose connected to the SAFW DI Water Storage Tank, refill the SAFW DI Water Storage Tank. When the NSRC water treatment system arrives, water will be pumped from the discharge canal through the water treatment system to the SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank.

Alternatively, water can be pumped from the discharge canal through the water treatment system directly to the S/Gs via a SAFW system connection point. NSRC delivered portable diesel driven pumps provide backup capability to the on-site FLEX pumps.

Connections are available to supply the 480 Volt vital buses from an NSRC supplied DIG and for connecting NSRC supplied portable pumps and the NSRC supplied water processing unit.

A graphic representation of the Phase 1 to Phase 3 FLEX strategies for maintaining Core Cooling and Heat Removal safety functions, with Steam Generators (SIGs),

available is shown below.

In Modes 4, 5, and 6 Operators enter AP-ELEC.4, Loss of All AC Power while on Shutdown Cooling (Reference 117).

Per ECA-0.0, steps are taken to verify reactor trip, maintain S/G inventory, minimize RCS leakage, and reduce DC loads on the unit's batteries. Heat removal from the RCS is accomplished by supplying feed water from the CST to the S/Gs using the TDAFW Pump or a SAFW Pump, powered by the new SAFW DIG, taking suction on the new 160,000 gallon SAFW DI Water Storage Tank (References 43, 75, and 122). ECA-0.0 has the Operators verify adequate TDAFW flow to the S/Gs. If adequate TDAFW flow to the S/Gs is not verified and cannot be established, the Operators are directed to initiate SAFW using the SAFW D/G by referring to ATT-5.5, Attachment SAFW with Suction from DI Water Storage Tank during 580 (Reference 97). S/G dryout conditions will be reached within 43 minutes with no feedwater supplied (RWA-1323-003, Reference 57).

The feed rate can be controlled by use of either manual operation of Auxiliary Feedwater Page 52 of 121

3.7 Phase 3 The Phase 3 strategy for core cooling, including what equipment will be needed and how, when, anqd where it will.be d~eployed is basically the.Phase 2 strategy.supplemented by equipment ava~ilable from the NSRC.

under Phase 3 _natur'al circulation will continue to be maintained via heat removal.

performed by the S/Os using a SAFW pump taking suction on the new.SAFW DI, Water Storage Tank; or a portable diesel driven pump connected to the SAFW system will be used to provide make-up water to the S/Gs from the new SAFW Dl.Water.StOrage Tank or the Discharge Canal.

To 'refill the SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank, any existing source of demineralized water on site will be preferentially used until the NSRC water treatment system arrives. The bounding FLEX scenario to refill the SAFW [D1 Water Storage Tank will be.to deploy a FLEX diesel :driven.portable pump.with a hard suction hose.to t~ake suction from the Disbharge Canal and, via a discharge hose, connected to t"he SAFW DI Water Storage Tank, refill the SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank. When the NSRC water treatment system arrives, water will be pump~ed from the discharge canal' through the water treatment system to the sAFW~DI Wate'r Storage Tank. Alternatively, water can be pumped from the discharge canal through the water treatment system 'directly.to the SIGs via the SAFW system connection point. NSRC delivered portable diesel driven pumps provide backup capability to.the on-site FLEX pumps, Connections are available to supply the 480.Volt. vital buses from an NSRC SUpplied DIG and f'or connecting' NSRC supplied portable pumps and the NSRC supplied water processing un~it.

4.6 Phase 2 Borated waterSource To main~tain ROS Invgentory Control and Long Term Subcriticality,.the borated water source for RCS makeup and boration is the RWST.

Heating' of the RWST is not required. At the maximum boron concentration of 3050 ppm, the RWST solubility limit is below 320 F.

The RWST meets the definition of robust in accordance with NEI 12-06 as :follows:

The RWST =is a flat bottom, stainless* steel tank located in the AuxiliaryBuilding, a Safety-Related, Seismic :Category (SC) I structure.

Seismic: The tank is evaluated within DA-CE-95-125 (Reference 141) and is shown to withStand des'ign basis ssE load~ings,'...

External Flooding:

The Auxiliary Building is flood protected to withstand external flood events. The tank is not~susCeptible to external flooding events.

High Winds: The A'uxiliary Building structure isev*luated to Withst~nd thqe effects of external wind loads developed by designl basis tornado wind. The structur-e utilizes backdraftdampers. (Tornad~o damper~s) in,order to eliminate the effects of differen~tial pressure associated With design-basis torna~do (UFSAR Section 3.3.5.7,,Reference 25): The RWST.was Subsequently eval~uated for wind p'ressure-effects 'due to a tornado (UFSAR Sectionh3.3.3.3.1),.'

Tornado Missile:

In accor'd~anc&calculation 428-4824-03'4-1C (Reference 142), the tank, is-qualified to withstan~d 'the current design basis missile, suite. There are no exposed nozzles that could cause the tang todani tuck by a tornado missile.

Extreme.Cold: The tank is located within the Auxiliary Building, which has minimum allowable tempe rature of 500F per UFSAR Table 3.11-1 (Reference 25). Ginna. has Page 66 of 121

5.4 Phase 1 AP-ELEC.4, Loss of All AC Power While. on Shutdown Cooling, (Reference 117),

provides the actions necessary for maintaining core cooling, containment integrity, and.

spent fuel cooling in the event of a cam plete *loss of all AC power While on RHR cooling.

Should an.ELAP occur in the window between exiting Mode 5, Loops Filled, to cavity flooded, the immediate response will be to gravity feed the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST). This will provide some amount Of flow,to the doie and delay or prevent.

core uncovery. In parallel with initiating gravity feed, a.dtionS will also be taken to initiate feed,and bleed cooling by establishing pumped i~njection* into the ROS using FLEX equipment per FSG-14, Shutdowrn RCS Makeup (Refererhce 144).

If available, the S/Gs are the prefer~red rnechanismfor core cooling. If conditions can be established for-S/G heat transfer using natu'ral circulaltion, inclUding.achie*,ing ROS integrity, ith~en ROS core cooling utilizing feed and bleed, is not necessary.

If ROS integrity cannot be restored and/or'conditions cannot be established for S/G h-eat transfer using natural circulation, then availab'le S/Gs a~re Utilized to Supplement core Cooling.

Analysis RWA-1323-004,' Ginna. RELAP5 ELAP Analysis for Mode 5 (Reference 93),.~shows that available S/Gs. will provide effective heat removal if S/G tubes have not been drained, and at least some 'heat removal due to refiux cooling if S/G tubes have been drained.

Any amount of secondary side heat remnoval that can be established reduces the RCS feed and bleed requirements and increases coping time until long ter-m recirculation core cooling has to be established.

Alternate RHR Following a seismic 'or tornado missile eyent there is a possibility of flooding the Auxiliary Building Subbasem~ent due to failure of non-qualified tanks and piping.. A Sump pump will be used to dewater the subbasement if this occurs. The sump pump is capable of dewatering the subbasement in less than 11 h'ours.

The Alternate RHR strategy will be implemented,per FSG-5, Initial Assessment and FLEX Equipment Staging (Refer'ence 109), Attachment I prior to depleting the RWST.

The Alternate RHR Str'ategy uses the Readtor *Coolant Drain.Tank Pumps (canned motor purlps), after pumnping out the Auxiliary' Building Sub:basement, to circulate water from the-RCS hiot leg, through both RHR heat exchangers, and back to the ROS cold leg. A FLEX. puimp is used to circulate water from the lake to the COW side of the RHR Heat Exchanger through hosing and a bonnet adaptelr.on valve 760A.

The lake water is discharged near deer creek through hoses conniected to a bonnet adapter at valve 760B.

The. strategy is justified in DA-ME-1 5-005, FLEX RHR/CCW/SW Hydraulic Model, (Reference 136) and DA-ME-1 5-01 1, FLEX Mode 5 RHR Strategy (Reference 147).

5.7 Phase 3 The Phase 3 strategy for core cooling and heat removal, including POstulated flow paths, is basically the Phase 2 strategy supplemented by equipment available from the NSRC.

Prior to depleting the RWST inventory, a mobile boration unit supplied from the NSRC can be utilized to provide an indefinite source 6f water for Phase 3 boron control/RCS injection. The preferred source of Water to supply the mobile boration Unit will be the new SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank. To refill the SAFW Di Water Storage Tank, any existing source of demineralized water on site will be. p~referentially used until the NSRC water treatment system arrives.

The bounding FLEX scenarioto refill the SAFW Dl Water.Storage Tank will be to deploy a FLEX diesel driven portable pump with a hard suction hose.to take suction from the Discharge Canal and,.via a discharge hose Conriected to the SAFW DI Water storage Tank, refill the SAFW Dl Water Storage Tank.

When" the NSRC water treatment, SYStem arrives, water Will be pumped from the discharge canal thirough the water treatment system to the SAFW DI.Water.Storage Tank.. Boron supplied from ttie NSRC with the mobil eboration unit will be availableoto mix with the preferential water so'urce for RCS b5oration/makeup.

NSRC delivered portable diesel driven pumps provide backup capability to the on-site FLEX pumps..

Connections are available to supply the 480 Volt vital buses from an NSRC supplied DIG and for connecting NSRC supplied portable pumps and the NSRC supplied mobile bOration and water processing units.

6.1,Objectives In.the long-term, containment pressure may rise due to leakage fromRCS adding heat to. containment.,

Provide a connection to containment spray header or alternate capability or Analysis. Due to the long-term nature of this function, the connection does not need'to be a permanent modification, However, if a,temporary connection, e.g., via va.lve bonnet, then this Should be iire-identified. (Reference 4) 6.2 Acceptance Criteria Co ntainment pressure will be maintained below the design. pressure of 60 psig and Containment temperature WiJI be maintained below the containment design temperature of 286°F (UFSAR Table 3.1"1-1, Reference 25).-

6.3 Strategies With an ELAP, containment cooling is lost and over an extended period of time containmen~t temperature and pressure can be expected to slowly indrease. An analysis.

has been performed to determine the containment-pressure profile during an ELAP /

LUHS event, and to justify that the instrumentation and controls in containment wh~ich are rielied Upon by the Operators are sufficient to perform their intended functions.

An'alysis RWA-1 403-001, GOTHIC FLEX Containment Analysis.(Reference 94), shows that during an ELAP / LUHS, mitigation strategies are necessary at Sorne point in time to manage the containment pressure profile and maintain containment integrity.. This analysis uses GOTHIC 8.0, has cases for Modes 1 and 5, and. was benchmarked against previous LOCA analyses.

Ginna is not crediting containment spray pumps to lower containment pressure/temnperatL~re in response to the ELAP conditions..

Water Hammer water hamtmer is not a concern upon re-estab.!ishing flow to the CRFC's (DA-ME-15-013, FLEX Miscellaneous Calculations, Refereonce !138). Ginna took a conservative approach and analyzed for column closure water hammer under DA-ME-2002-061, Resolution of Generic Letter 96-06 Water Hammer Issues Using 'EPRI Technical Basis Reports (EPRI 1003098 &.'11006456) (Reference 148), in.response to GL 96-06 even though the occurrence did not appear. credible for the GL 96-06 conditions..During an, ELAP is it" recognized that the CRFC's may generat[e more steam than considered in DA-ME-2002-,

061 and it is feasible that all the piping upstream and downstream'of the CRFC's could be vo0ided when flow is established.. Upstream piping may be voided due to drainage necessaryl for the strategy.to replace 4628/4641 with adaptor inserts to allow hose connections. Downstream piping may be voided given' that it may be many hours after initiation of the event to establish CRFC cooling'flow. The CRFC's may be voided due to high containment temperature and steaming in the CRFC's.

The two water hammer phenomena, of potential concern are referred to as column closure water hammer (water hammer that.can-occur when flow is established with a void present) and condensation induced water hammer (water hammer than can occur P-age 75 of 121

Procedure FSG-7, Loss of Vital Instrumentation or Control Power (Reference 81),

implements a strategy to take a field (local) reading of containment pressure at a containment pressure transmitter using a pressure test gauge, along with guidance to repower a containment pressure instrument if field wiring is intact. PT-945, CNMT Press XMTR, is located on the middle level of the Auxiliary Building and is therefore protected from tornado or missile damage.

The sensing line for PT-945 would be available to attach a pressure gage and take local readings in accordance with FSG-7.

Containment Temperature:

Measuring temperature of the containment atmosphere is not required for purposes such as validating the qualification range of measurement instruments located in the containment or establishing the survivability of penetration seals or other equipment. As described in UFSAR Section 6.2.1.5.4, (Reference 25), containment temperature instrumentation is "not required nor designed to function during or after a safe shutdown earthquake." Containment temperature is not identified as required instrumentation for safe shutdown from tornado missile events (UFSAR Section 3.3.3, Reference 25), and is not designated as Station Blackout Coping Equipment (SBO-PROGPLAN, Reference 32).

Analysis RWA-1403-001 (Reference 94) and the strategies to limit containment pressure show that containment temperatures do not challenge the qualification range of measurement instruments located in containment or the survivability of penetration seals or other equipment.

For Mode 1, containment temperature does not exceed 220°F in the first 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, and for Mode 5, containment venting will limit containment temperature to less than 250°F, which are below the containment design temperature of 286°F (UFSAR Table 3.11-1, Reference 25).

For determining the impact of adverse containment conditions on instrument indication in containment, the applicable Emergency Operating Procedures use containment pressure, not temperature. For example ECA-0.0, Loss of All/AC Power (Reference 22),

states: "NOTE:

Adverse CNMT values should be used whenever CNMT pressure is greater than 4 psig or CNMT radiation is greater than 10+05 R/hr."

6.6 Phase 2:

No mitigation actions are necessary, or planned, to maintain or restore containment cooling during Phase 2 for Modes 1 through 4. Containment status will be monitored.

For" ELAP GOTHIC calculations, the. maximum, and ~minimum outside ambient

.temperature assum'ed is 1000F nd-6F~respectively (Refer-ence Ginna UFSAR section 2.3.2.2).. The c'alculations assume reasonable ambient temperatulre in the associated rooms prior to the1loss of all 'AC power. 'The GOTHIC models simulate actions such as opening of doors or installation of fans,.as necessarY,.to obtain airflow.l Equipment and HVAC strategies a~re based..on the resdltS" of.these calculations, to ensure that temperatur'es *remain within personnel and equipment limits.

ELAP Specific GOTHIC.analyses.were not. performed for the.Battery Room/Relay Room/Control Room.

DA-ME-15-0.12, FLEX HVAC for Control Room and Battery Rooms (Reference 154) used Mathcad 14.0 topredict heating' and cooling needs for the Control Room and Battery Rooms' during ELAP conditions (with,extreme hot and cold weather).

Control Room, Relay Room, and Battery Rooms. Habitability Plant specific analyses were performed in August"I1990 (Referen~ce 59).and December 15, 1993.(Reference, '60)> to determine the maximum expected stat ion blackout temperatures 4or the Battery Rooms, Relay Room, and the Control Room with the fdllowing.results:

This temperature-was Utilized for both th~e station blackout a~nalysis (4-hour coping period) as well as the SI Sequence ana~lysiS. Ginna ha~s' alSoperformed a special case analysis to verify the capacity" of the sta~tion batteries for 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> under DA-EE-2001 -028, Vital Battbry 8-Hour Capacity (Reference 55). A more realistic rrinimuim Batte'riy Room ambient temperature of 65°F is used.for this arialysis.

Elevated temperatures are not considered in these analyses as they' actually-improve battery performanice bylowering the internal'resistance of the battery as well.as speeding up the internal chemical reactions.

As discussed. in section 7.5.3.1 of DA-EE-97-069, the 55°F ambient temperature is conservative and would not b~e seen in the Battery Rooms. DA-ME-99-033, Vital Battery Temperatures during Station Blackout Event, (Reference 1,55) has demonstrated thlat the Battery Room temperatures Will not drop below 6~5°F during an 8-hour period.

Page 86 of 121

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049)

Therefore, a 65°F minimum ambient temperature was used in the extended SBO analysis. The DA-ME-99-033 calculation uses a set of very conservative assumptions (e.g., inverter heat loads not credited, which would add several degrees to the rooms).

Using the 55°F (650°F for the extended SBO analysis) ambient temperature in the battery sizing calculations provides conservative margin in the analysis. Therefore, the station battery is shown, through the existing design analyses, to be able to perform its function for the duration of an ELAP event.

Intermediate Buildingq (IB) Habitability A GOTHIC calculation has been performed for both the TDAFW Pump and the ARV areas of the lB for the Ginna SBO Program (Reference 32).

The results of these calculations indicate that with doors $37F, S44F, and SD/55 opened within 30 minutes, the ambient temperature of TDAFW Pump' area is between 11 0°F and 11 5°F (Reference 58).

With this result, equipment operability is not considered to be of concern.

Calculations utilizing the NUMARC 87-00 methodology performed for the ARV area have yielded a resultant ambient temperature of between 117°F and 122°F (Reference 58) with doors S37F, S44F, and SD/55 opened within 30 minutes. Operator safety concern~s with habitability in the ARV area of the Intermediate building caused a cautionstatement at the beginning of ECA-0.0 (Reference 22) to be written. The caution states that, "Due To Potentially Extreme Environmental Conditions, Caution Should Be *Used when Entering The Intermediate Bldg For Local Actions."

Protective clothing (ice vests) may be required by the Operators at the Operators discretion when Occupying these areas to perform manual actions, such as TDAFW flow Control Valve throttling, ECA-0.0. The ice vests are not considered to be required station blackout coping equipment and are not proceduralized, but are regularly inspected being treated as ordinary safety equipment.

(Reference 32, Section 7.2.4). The calculations for the TDAFW Pump and ARV areas of the lB show stable temperatures at the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> SBO coping time.

Calculation RWA-1 316-001, FLEX Intermediate Building GOTHIC Heat Up Analysis (Reference 151), documents the develoPment and results of a GOTHIC model of the Ginna lB under an ELAP / FLEX scenario.

The model evaluates the building temperatures consistent with the plant's current coping and mitigations strategies and assesses the effect of potential operator actions. RWA-1 31 6-001 concludes that the lB GOTHIC model above predicts conservatively high temperatures for the TDAFW Pump and ARV areas, and that once temperatures are reduced by opening of doors S37F,

$44F, and SD/FF, steady state temperatures of approximately 117°F at the ARVs and 11 0°F at the TDAFW Pump are maintained.

Service Buildinq Habitability This is a relatively large open area with no significant heat source located in the proximity of the coping equipment (CSTs and associated level transmitters). Therefore, no significant ambient temperature rise is anticipated.

Auxiliary Building (RWST area) Habitability Minimal heat loads would be present in this area during a station blackout. This area was analyzed assuming a LOCA and a simultaneous loss of ventilation.

The results demonstrate that the ambient temperature rise in this area is nominal and will not preclude operator habitability or equipment operability.

However, with an ELAP event, the loss of SFP cooling will result in SFP boiling and the release of steam into the Auxiliary Building. This impact is addressed under the SFP Cooling safety function.

SAFW Building Annex RWA-1 433-001, Ginna standby Auxiliary Feedwater Room Heat-Up Analysis (Reference 152), documents the SAFW Building and SAFW Annex temperature response for HELBs, Appendix R cases, and Fukushima/FLEX cases. The calculation includes assessment of temperatures of key Components within the SAFW building.

SAFW ventilation is established under ATT-5.5, Attachment SAFW with Suction from DI Water Storage Tank during SBO (Reference 97).

SAFW pumps depend on ambient cooling such that ventilation is adequate to ensure temperatures are acceptable. The new permanent RCS Injection pump in the SAFW Building will depend on ambient cooling. The selected pump motor has Type H insulation such.that it is qualified for well beyond predicted room temperatures for thousands of hours.

ECP-13-000975-015-7B-01, Design Change Technical. Evaluation, (Reference 156) documented acceptable SAFW Annex DIG air system flow resistance.to satisfY radiator flow requirements.

RWA-1433-001 modeled ventilation for the Annex DIG. Case 6 simulated FLEX conditions.

The analysis outputs were provided as maximum temperatures for different room elevations.

Annex DIG temperature constraints are satisfied by comparison of ECP-1 3-000975-01 5-7B-01 requirements against RWA-1 433-001 predictions. One temperature of potential ihterest is the engine air intake. ECP 000975-015-7B-01 documents the engine will derate if the air intake temperature exceeds 122°F. The GOTHIC analysis identifies a max air temperature of 123°F below 10 ft. elevation (air intakes are at approximately 7 foot elevation). The engine air intake temperature is expected to be significantly less than the max prediction of 123°F given the location of the engine air intakes in the room air flow. The engine air intakes are upstream of the engine and face the incoming outside air such that the engine intake air is not expected to be heated significantly.

RWA-1433-001 (Reference 152), a Gothic model analysis of the SAFW Annex interior temperatures, including limiting cold conditions, determined that additional heating must be provided to maintain temperatures above 40F to prevent water from freezing. As a result, a 15KW electric heater was installed in the Annex DIG Room (ECP-13-000975, Reference 157). The analysis shows that no additional heat is required in the Annex, aside from that being provided in the DIG Room. The Annex heater is thermostatically controlled to maintain room temperatures above that required and can be powered from the SAFW DIG if needed.

To support SAFVV equipment functionality during potential freezing conditions ECP 000995, "DDSAFW Annex Building -

Mechanical Scope," (Reference 157) installed vendor-designed heat tracing on the SAFW DI Water Storage Tank sample lines, tank suction piping, tank' return piping, and recirculation piping.

During an ELAP, the heat trace installed in these areas can be powered from the SAFW DIG. Furthermore, the DI Water Tank Recirculation Pump and the DI Water Tank Heater, which can maintain tank water temperature above 40°F, can be powered by the SAFW DIG during an ELAP. As a result, freezing of these areas during a station blackout is not a concern.

The Alternate RCS Injection Pump, powered from the SAFW DIG, utilizes the RWST as a source of water for RCS makeup.

Initially, the Alternate RCS Injection Pump suction and discharge piping is filled with unborated DI water. As a result, Boron precipitation is of no' concern during this time. However, upon initiation of the system, borated water from the RWST is injected into the reactor via Safety Injection piping. Per the UFSAR (Reference 25),

the maximum boric acid concentration within the RWST is Page 88 of 121

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049) then it may be necessary to throttle the DC fan or use a smaller/variable speed fan to limit air flow to approximately 400 cfm to achieve a room temperature of at least 50°F.

For extremely hot conditions, "A" Battery Room temperature is predicted to be acceptable if fresh is taken into the Air Handling Room (AHR) and blow to the "A" Battery Room using the DC powered fan and the air is not recirculated back to the ARH, but is discharged to ambient. "B" Battery Room is cooled by using an approximately 3500 cfm fan to reduce battery room temperature to less than 105°F or a 700 cfm fan to maintain less than 120°F.

For all conditions it is recommended that ventilation be established prior to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. Ventilation for the Battery Rooms is established under FSG-4, ELAP DC Bus Load Shed/Management (Reference 76).

FSG-5, Initial Assessment and FLEX Equipment Staging, (Reference 109) contains guidance!/recommendations to mitigate actions associated with extreme heat and cold.

Battery Room Hydrogen Control DA-EE-99-068, Vital Battery Room Hydrogen Analysis (Reference 62), documents that under worse case conditions, without ventilation, the 0.8%

normal hydrogen concentration limit would not be exceeded until 28.9 hours1.041667e-4 days <br />0.0025 hours <br />1.488095e-5 weeks <br />3.4245e-6 months <br /> and that the unacceptable hydrogen concentration limit of 2% would not be exceeded until 73.3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br />, with all batteries being equalized. Ventilation to both Battery Rooms is available from a single DC fan that must be manually started. FSG-4, FLAP DC Bus Load Shed/Management, (Reference 76) starts normal Battery Room ventilation (DC powered vent fans) after establishing temporary power to the station battery chargers. FSG-4 also directs using temporary Battery Room ventilation if required.

FSG-5, Initial Assessment and FLEX Equipment Staging, (Reference 109) directs using portable fans for Battery Room ventilation.

Guidance for Battery Room ventilation is also provided in Alarm Response AR-C-i13, Battery Rooms Loss of Ventilation (Reference 158).

8.3.3 UHS Access The DDSAFW Dl Water Storage Tank provides --24 hours of feed water for the S/Gs (DA-ME-1 4-020, Deionized Water Tank Inventory Requirements, Reference 159). This tank is protected from all events (seismic, tornado and flood), and is used as a heat sink until the ultimate heat sink is available.

Emergency Operating Procedure ATT-5.5, Attachment SAFW with Suction from DI Water Storage Tank during SBO, (Reference

97) starts the SAFW pumps and is accomplished within 43 minutes of event initiation.

FSG-3, Alternate Low Pressure Feedwater, (Reference 100) FSG-6, Alternate SAFW DI Water Storage Tank Makeup," (Reference 99) and FSG-12, Alternate CNMT Cooling, (Reference 118) all have steps directing use of Lake Ontario (UHS). FSG-1 1, Alternate SFP Makeup and Cooling, (Reference 103) directs using Lake Ontario for Spent Fuel Pool makeup or spray and is directed by ECA-0.0, Loss of AllIAC Power (Reference 22).

In the area of the discharge canal there are multiple options to place a hose into the discharge canal to provide makeup to the DDSAFW DI Water Storage Tank or S/Gs if the preferred area (by the grating) is blocked.

FLEX suction hoses have a strainer installed on the end of the hose. Each strainer has

-3.7 X the surface area of the non-collapsible suction hose.

Strainer perforation diameter is 3/8". There are 19 holes per row and 50 rows around the diameter of the strainer, giving a surface area of -105 in2.

Non-collapsible suction hoses are 6" diameter giving a surface area of ~ 28 in2. There are two suction strainers available. In the unlikely event that one becomes clogged there would be a brief interruption to shut Page 90Oof 121

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049) down the pump, swap strainers, and restart the pump.

Monitoring of pump flow and pressure would indicate a possible clogged suction strainer. FSG-5, Initial Assessment and FLEX Equipment Staging,. (Reference 109) directs staging of debris removal equipment. FLEX pumps with flexible suction hoses can be maneuvered to access Lake Ontario water at various places on the discharge canal.'

The water chemistry of Lake Ontario has minimal effect On long term heat transfer in the Steam Generators (NWT 167, Use of Lake Ontario Water in Steam Generators During Hot Shutdown attached to June 23, 1981 letter to NRC). Lake Ontario water is used to feed S/Gs when condensate.grade water is not available per ER-AFW.1, Alternate Water Supply to the AEW Pumps (Reference 160).

By letter dated June 17, 1999 (Reference 161), the staff concluded that the licensee's approach (i.e., use of Condensate Storage Tanks and then Lake Ontario) demonstrates that it can achieve and maintain hot shutdown for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> following a seismic event.

By letter dated September 29, 1981 (Reference 162), the staff issued a letter to Ginna regarding Systematic Evaluation Program (SEP) Topics in which the staff concluded that the licensee should provide, procedures that should caution operators.on the long-term use of service water to feed the S/Gs. The condenser Hotwell has -30,000 gallons of DI water available and can be gravity filled from the Condensate Storage Tanks.

The NSRC can provide a portable filtering/demineralizer system to provide filtered or condensate grade water from. Lake Ontario or other onsite sources such as the yard fire loop.

Duiring a flood, access to the ultimate heat sink will be temporarily unavailable due to floodwateron site. Results of the NTTF Recommendation 2.1, Flooding Reevaluation (Reference 42), show that the persistence of the flood is approximately 10 h-ours. The onsite water sources are sufficient to supply water for this timeframe.'

Frazil ice at Ginna has historically occurred at the Intake Structure. The intake structure is not credited for FLEX.

Frazil ice at the suction of hoses dropped into the discharge canal for FLEX or SAFER pumps is reasonably expected to not be a concern requiring special equipment for the following reasons:

Frazil ice blockage has been managed effectively at Ginna by accelerating and decelerating the water going through the intake structure by changing level in the Screenhouse. This agitation has historically been effective at disrupting the frazil ice and re-establishing normal flow rates. For FLEX pumps,, the length of hose dropped into the discharge canal is short enough tO allow operators to physically agitate the hose to disrupt frazil ice if it were to occur. Alternatively the drafting pumps have variable speed engines and.. discharge valves' that could be used to accelerate/decelerate flow similar to the intake structure strategy.

  • Frazil ice has occurred at Ginna during late night hours.

Operators would be cognizant of the potential for frazil ice during extreme cold conditions and cognizant of the potential vulnerability during late night hours. Margin is available in the FLEX response times and integrated flows/heat removal associated with FLEX/SAFER pumps to accommodate brief periods of flow degradation from FLEX/SAFER pumps for frazil ice management.

Potential icing over of the discharge canal could be effectively managed by on-site personnel using available equipment.

If the ice is thin then it. could be broken using readily available lengths of piping or boards. Options for accessing the discharge canal Page 91 of 121

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049) needed to perform local actions.

A communications test of the radio system was performed, utilizing the new protected repeater.

Communications was excellent throughout the areas where communication to perform local mitigation actions is required. All areas requiring access have multiple egress and exit points.

1. Standby AFW Building Annex - the local actions taken in this room are the initiation and control of Standby AFW flow, initiation of Alternate RCS Injection, and monitoring of Spent Fuel Pool level. HVAC calculations indicate there will be no adverse environmental conditions within this room to inhibit the performance of local actions. The temperature limits in these areas are 60°F to 1 04°F.
2. Auxiliary Building - several manipulations are expected to occur in this building.

When initiating Alternate RCS Injection, four manual valves must be manipulated.

When repowering MOO C and D to provide for battery charging and accumulator isolation valve closure, cables must be deployed from the Waste Gas Compressor room to the motor control centers. When dewatering the Auxiliary Building sub-basement and aligning Reactor Coolant Drain Tank pump flow and FLEX pump flow to the 760 A and B bonnet-to-hose adapters, cabling and hoses must be run in various sections of the Auxiliary Building. Also, running hose to the edge of the spent fuel pool, or, alternatively, to valve 8662 for spent fuel pool makeup is performed in the Auxiliary Building.

HVAC calculations have been performed which demonstrate that environmental conditions at the operating floor peak at about 125°F. The time duration for actions in this area is less than 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />. At lower levels of the Auxiliary Building, where actions could have several hours duration, the peak temperature remains below 11 0°F.

3. Intermediate Building - The Atmospheric Relief Valves must be locally controlled.

With timely opening of doors, HVAC calculation demonstrates that peak temperatures are limited to 1 17-122°F.

Other actions in the Intermediate Building include taking of local readings for vital instrumentation, and the use of an air compressor to vent the Safety Injection accumulators. HVAC calculations indicate the peak temperatures in these areas are 110-11 5°F.

4. Control Room -

Many manipulations are performed within the control room.

HVAC calculations demonstrate that with the timely opening of doors, peak temperatures are limited to 11 6°F.

5. Relay room/annex - the radio repeater system is stored in the annex.

The antenna, tripod, and cabling would be deployed via local actions form that room.

HVAC calculations indicate the peak temperature in that room would be limited to 103° F.

GINNA FINAL INTEGRATED PLAN MITIGATION STRATEGIES (NRC ORDER EA-12-049) assumed for an ELAP / LUHS event. A-601.10 (Reference 17); SBO-PROGPLAN Paragraph 7.2.4 (Reference 32) (Analysis supports 4 hr. coping period).

43 mai, Establish SAFW to SIGs prior to S/G dryout to maintain heat sink. RWA-1323-003, Ginna RELAP5 ELAP Analysis for Mode 1, (Reference 57) determined that the time to S/G dryout from nominal conditions, with conservative decay heat levels, occurs at 43 minutes. Table-tops/walkthroughs were performed to validate that the time critical action could be accomplished as required. Restoration of feed to the S/Gs was completed by 43 minutes.

1 hr., DC Load Shedding.

Following loss of all AC power,:the station batteries are the only source of electrical power. The station batteries supply the DC buses and the AC vital instrument buses. Since AC emergency power is not available to charge the station batteries, battery power supply must be conserved to permit monitoring and control of the plant until AC power can be restored. The intent of load shedding is to remove all large non-essential loads as soon as practical, consistent with preventing damage to plant equipment. ATT-8.0 (Reference 46); NEI 12-01 Phase 2 Staffing Assessment-Report (Reference 107); ECA-0.0 Background Information*

(Reference 54).

1 hr., Declare ELAP. Declaration of ELAP shall be made by the Shift Manager when it is recognized or determined that restoration of power to mitigate the effects of a SBO cannot be performed. ECA-0.0 directs the Operator to try to restore power to any train of AC emergency buses after a loss of all AC power. One hour is sufficient time for the-Operators to recognize or determine that off-site power or on-site emergency power restoration is unlikely and that an ELAP should be declared. The NEI 12-01 Phase 2 Staffing Assessment (Reference 107) determined that the Shift Manager will declare an ELAP as early as T = 16:54.

1 hr., Establish Long Term RCS Inventory Control. The NEI 12-01 Phase 2 Staffing Assessment (Reference 107) determined that FSG-1, Long Term RCS Inventory Control, (Reference 83) can be entered to restore RCS Inventory using an alternate makeup strategy when an ELAP is in progress, PRZR level is less than 13% [40%

adverse CNMT], and time and personnel are available to perform this strategy.

2 hrs., Commence RCS Cooldown - maintain maximum cooldown rate in the RCS cold legs not to exceed 1000F/hr.

In order to ensure RCP No. 2 seal component temperature limitations are maintained, Westinghouse Technical Bulletin TB-15-1, Reactor Coolant System Temperature and Pressure Limits for the No 2 RCP5 Seal (Reference 128), recommends that a RCS cooldown be performed following all loss of all seal cooling events. The cooldown should be initiated within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> after a loss of seal cooling occurs.

The cooldown rate should be the typical emergency response guidel~ine (ERG) rate of 50 to 100°F/hr. to a cold leg temperature of less than 450°F in 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and after 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />, an RCS temperature and pressure of less than 3500°F and 400 psig should be achieved.

4 hrs., Degas Main Generator. Generator degassing should be started to ensure that DC seal oil backup pump Can be stopped in four hours to decrease DC loading on the Technical Support Center Battery.

ECA-0.0 (Reference 22); ECA-0.0 Background Information (Reference 54).

8 hrs., Repower Battery Chargers.

Vital Battery Capacity given load shedding in ECA-0.0.

DA-EE-2001-028 (Reference 55) documents that the vital batteries have an adequate capacity for an 8-hour event assuming the load shedding listed in procedure ECA-0.0 (ATT-8.0, Reference 46)) is implemented.

This analysis is conservative because it applies 50% of the calculated load reduction to Battery A, and only during the period from 12 min to 245.5 min. 50% of the calculated load Page 111 of 121
