WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-114.0INITIAL TEST PROGRAM14.1SPECIFIC INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN PSAR14.2SPECIFIC INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN FSAR14.2.1

SUMMARY

OF TEST PROGRAM AND OBJECTIVESThe Waterford 3 startup test program shall encompass testing activities commencing with the physicalrelease of a system or component from construction and ending with a 100-hour warranty run at 100percent power. The startup test program is primarily concerned with, but not limited to, the quality-related testing and evaluation of safety-related structures, components, and systems and will be in compliance with the basic intent of Regulatory Guide 1.68 (August 1978), Initial Test Programs for Water Cooled Nuclear Power Plants. The three basic objectives of the startup test program shall be to:a)Provide assurance that the plant is properly designed and constructed and is ready to operatethrough the next phase of testing in a manner that will not endanger the health and safety of the public, plant personnel, and plant equipment.b)Demonstrate and evaluate plant procedures required to meet the objective stated in a) above.

c)Assist in the training of the plant operating and maintenance staff and to provide them with hands-on experience in the operation and maintenance of plant equipment utilizing plant procedures.Operating and Maintenance Procedures will be tested during the startup test program to the extentpractical. To provide a systematic approach in conducting the startup test program, the program has been divided into three major test phases: Prerequisite (Phase I) Tests, Preoperational (Phase II) Tests, and Initial Startup (Phase III) Tests.For verification of acceptability, LP&L QA shall perform a system review, including documentation, foreach safety-related system prior to transfer of the system from Startup to Plant Operations.14.2.1.1Phase I - Prerequisite TestingPhase I of the test program will generally begin as installation and/or construction of individual structures,components, and systems near completion. The prime objective of this phase is to verify that construction activities associated with the respective structure, components, and system have been completed.

Another function is to verify that the components within the system can be put into operation safely. The testing requirements associated with this phase will verify installation integrity, component operability, and applicable system functional characteristics, and will ensure that the structures, components, and systems are ready for Preoperational Testing. If functional problems are discovered, they are reported and resolved according to written administrative procedures. Troubleshooting of equipment in accordance with written administrative procedures is authorized to assist in the solution of problems. After appropriate correction of problems, WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-2retests are conducted in accordance with written procedures to verify that the corrective action wassuccessful in solving the problem.Prerequisite tests are performed in accordance with approved written procedures. Data collected duringthe Prerequisite Testing phase, such as instrument calibration data and pump pressureversus flow data, may be used to satisfy prerequisites during Phase II, Preoperational Testing. Phase I testing as discussed further in Subsection 14.2.12.1.14.2.1.2Phase II - Preoperational TestingPhase II of the test program will normally commence after Prerequisite Testing on respective structures,components, systems, and subsystems is completed. This phase of the test program will include the tests required to demonstrate that structures, components, and systems will perform satisfactorily in service and that they will support fuel loading and Phase III, Initial Startup Testing. The preoperational test is a test in accordance with Criterion XI of Appendix B of 10CFR50; it is performed in accordance with approved written test procedures which incorporate the requirements and acceptance limits contained in applicable design documents. Phase II test procedures shall include provision for assuring that all pre-requisites for the test have been met, that adequate test instrumentation is specified and used, and thatsuitable environmental conditions if applicable, and initial conditions are specified. The Phase II test results will be documented and evaluated by the Joint Test Group (JTG) and the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC) to assure that all requirements are met.The preoperational test provides reasonable assurance that the system has been erected and functions inaccordance with the design intent. A required prerequisite to the physical preoperational testing is a review of the applicable safety-related systems Quality Assurance (QA) records to determine that inspection, test, and operational status of the system are accurately defined and provides a basis for the decision to perform the preoperational test. After the test is undertaken, administrative measures are established to assure that the system retains the qualities for which it was tested. A surveillance program is undertaken periodically to ensure that the ability of components and systems to support fuel loading and Phase III testing is maintained.The preoperational tests are directed by Waterford Startup Group (WSG) personnel who are qualified asdetailed in Subsection 14.2.2.9. The WSG is independent of the plant design engineering andconstruction functions and has direct communication with LP&L management to report nonconformances in the design and construction of the plant found during testing.The Hot Functional Test provides not only a verification of the integrated operation of the plant, whichensures that plant systems can safely support initial criticality and subsequent testing at power, but also provides a preliminary checkout of plant operating procedures and instructions to the extent practical.

Phase II testing is discussed further in Subsection 14.2.12.2.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-3Prior to transfer of a system from startup to plant operations or prior to fuel load, LP&L QA will complete areview of construction records. In addition, LP&L QA will perform system audits of each safety-related system.14.2.1.3Phase III - Initial Startup TestingPhase III of the test program will commence with the initial fuel load and will include the following areas oftesting: precritical tests, initial criticality, low power physics tests, power ascension tests, and the NSSS warranty run. The purpose of precritical testing is to perform and/or resolve outstanding tests and deficiencies from the Phase II test program, and to complete the required post-fuel-load tests. The balance of the testing associated with this phase of the program is to demonstrate and/or verify that the plant was built and can operate in conformance with the FSAR and the operating license. Phase III testing is discussed further in Subsection 14.2.12.3. Phase III tests are directed by plant staff with assistance from the Startup Group, using test procedures and plant operating procedures approved by the Plant Manager.14.2.2ORGANIZATION AND STAFFING The Senior Vice President-Nuclear Operations of Louisiana Power & Light Company has overallresponsibility for the startup test program and the startup of Waterford 3.

Suchprocedures will be prepared, reviewed, approved, and conducted under the controls established for Phase II or Phase III test procedures.14.2.4CONDUCT OF TEST PROGRAM The Waterford 3 Plant Operating Manual and Startup Manual will provide the guidance necessary forconducting the startup test program for Waterford 3. The following will be addressed in these manuals:a)Responsibilities assigned to each principal onsite organization.

b)The scope of each phase of the test program.

c)Methods for control of startup system scoping.d)Temporary modifications.e)Procedure development, review, and approval.f)Design changes.

g)Changes and revisions to procedures.h)System release, turnover, and transfer directives.i)Housekeeping.i)Document control requirements.

k)Equipment and access controls.

1)Training and qualification of test personnel.

m)Instructions and forms needed.Approved Phase I and II procedures shall be retained by the WSG until the scheduled test date. Should an approved procedure require a major change prior to thestart of the test, the test procedure will be revised.The revised procedure must be reviewed and approved in a manner similar to that used for anunapproved procedure. Minor changes required to approved procedures prior to the start of the test which do not modify the original intent of the procedure will be documented by completing a test procedurechange form and will be reviewed and approved as directed in the Startup Manual. This change form will be attached to and become part of the existing procedure.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-20Phase II and Phase III tests will be performed when scheduled and in strict accordance with the approvedwritten test procedure. Each procedure will include provisions to ensure that prerequisites are met. The prerequisites for each Phase II and Phase III testing evolution shall be consistent with the general recommendations contained in Appendix C to Regulatory Guide 1.68, August 1978. It shall be the responsibility of the Startup Engineer assigned the specific test to ensure that all prerequisites are satisfactorily completed or that any allowable exception are noted.Minor changes required to approved Phase II and Phase III test procedures after testing has commencedwhich do not modify the original intent of the procedure will be documented by completing a test procedurechange form. Such minor changes to Phase II procedures must be reviewed and approved as directed in the Startup Manual. Such minor changes to Phase III procedures must be reviewed and approved as directed by the Plant Operating Manual. The completed change form will be attached to and become partof the existing procedure.Should an approved procedure require a major change, a test procedure change form will be completed.The completed change form will be attached to and become part of the existing procedure. The review and approval of the change form will be the same as the affected procedure.As each test is performed, the Startup Engineer will initial appropriate steps of the detailed procedure todocument completion. Where special conditions require abnormal valving or the use of jumpers or bypasses, special control measures will be specified to ensure that the abnormal configuration is returned to normal upon completion of the test.Completed procedures and test results will be reviewed for acceptance by the responsible StartupEngineer. The specific acceptance criteria for determining the success or failure of the test will be included as part of the procedure and will be used by the Startup Engineer in this review. The procedure will also include a chronological log where the Startup Engineer can document remarks and recommendations before presenting the completed procedure to the designated reviewer. The designated reviewer will review the completed procedure for conformance with testing requirements specified in the Waterford 3 Startup Manual and Plant Operating Manual as well as for acceptance of the test results. The reviewer can, as appropriate, document additional remarks and recommendations. The completed procedure will then be submitted for final review, evaluation, and approval by the JTG or the PORC.14.2.5REVIEW, EVALUATION, AND APPROVAL OF TEST RESULTS Individual test results will be reviewed as follows: Phase I test results will be reviewed by the JTG andapproved by the Lead Startup Engineer. Phase II test results will be reviewed by the JTG, and approved by the Plant Manager - Nuclear. Phase III test results will be reviewed by PORC and approved by the Plant Manager - Nuclear. The JTG may serve as a subcommittee for PORC for the review of Phase III test results. If maintenance, modification, or retest of plant systems is determined to be necessary as aresult of the review of a completed procedure, the JTG and/or PORC will coordinate and direct theappropriate action.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-21Test results for Phase I, II, and III tests will be reviewed and verified complete and satisfactory so that nosucceeding test will be dependent on an untested system. In the case of Phase I testing, the review and verification will take place on a system basis. Phase II testing on a system will not normally be started until all applicable prerequisite tests have been completed, reviewed, and verified to be satisfactory by the LSE or his designated alternate. Prior to initial fuel loading and the start of Phase III testing, a comprehensive review of Phase II of the initial test program will be conducted by the JTG. This review will provide assurance that plant systems and structures will be capable of supporting the initial fuel loading and subsequent operational testing. Phase I and Phase II testing should be completed prior to commencing Phase III testing, with the following exceptions, which are generally noted on the individual test descriptions in Subsection 14.2.12.2:a)Tests requiring the nuclear fuel to be in place.

b)Tests requiring sustained operation of the turbine-generator.

c)Tests which are not completed, but which will not have a major impact on Phase III testing andare approved by PORC for later completion.Phase III of the test program is subdivided into the following categories: initial fuel load, postcore hotfunctional testing, initial criticality, low power physics test, power ascension tests, and the NSSS warranty run. Each subdivision, in itself, is a prerequisite which shall be completed, reviewed, and evaluated prior to commencing tests in the next category, so that further testing is not dependent on any unsafeconditions.Power ascension tests will be scheduled and conducted at predetermined power levels. The testingplateaus to be used for the Waterford 3 startup program will be at 20, 50, 80, and 100 percent of rated power. The results of each plateau will be reviewed, evaluated, and approved before proceeding to the next test plateau.Following the completion of the power ascension tests, a 100-hour warranty run at 100 percent of ratedpower will signify acceptance of the NSSS and completion of the test program. Final test results will be reviewed, evaluated, and approved at this time.14.2.6TEST RECORDSA single copy of each test procedure will be designated as the official copy to be used for testdocumentation. The official copy of each test procedure and information specifically called for in thatprocedure, such as completed data sheets, tables, logs, chart recordings, etc., will constitute the completed test procedure. Completed test procedures are made a part of the plant's historical record andwill be maintained at the facility for the life of the plant in accordance with LP&L administrative procedures and requirements for record retention.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-2214.2.7COMPARISON OF TEST PROGRAM WITH REGULATORY GUIDESAND IEEE STANDARDSThe startup test program for Waterford 3 is structured in accordance with the following regulatory guidesand IEEE standards with the exceptions and/or clarifications noted. The revision of the guide or standard that is listed is for test purposes only and does not affect design or constructions.14.2.7.11.9 Selection of Diesel Generator Set Capacity for Standby Power Supplies (Safety Guide 9, 3/10/71)14.2.7.21.16 Reporting of Operating Information Appendix A Technical Specifications (Revision 4, 8/75)14.2.7.31.20 Comprehensive Vibration Assessment Program for ReactorInternals During Preoperational and Initial Startup Testing(Revision 2, 5/76)Waterford 3 is classified as non-prototype, Category I and will be consistent will the analyses andinspection program requirements as described in Subsection 3.9.2.14.2.7.41.30 Quality Assurance Requirements for the Installation,Inspection, and Testing of Instrumentation and ElectricEquipment (Safety Guide 30, 8/11/72)14.2.7.51.32 Criteria for Safety Related Electric Power Systems forNuclear Power Plants (Revision 2, 2/77)14.2.7.61.38 Quality Assurance Requirements for Packaging, Shipping,Receiving,Storage, and Handling of Items for Water-Cooled NuclearPower Plants (Revision 2, 5/77)14.2.7.71.39 Housekeeping Requirements for Water-Cooled Nuclear PowerPlants (Revision 2, 9/77)14.2.7.81.41 Preoperational Testing of Redundant Onsite Electric PowerSystems to Verify Proper Load Group Assignments (3/16/73)14.2.7.91.52 Design, Testing, and Maintenance Criteria for Engineered-Safety- Feature Atmosphere Cleanup System Air Filtration andAbsorption Units of Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants(Revision 2, 3/78)14.2.7.101.58 Qualification of Nuclear Power Plant Inspection,Examination, and Testing Personnel (8/73)

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-23The recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.58 have been followed with the exception that if physicalexaminations are required, re-examination shall be performed every two years and not annually as specified. ANSI N45.2.6, Paragraph 3, Qualification, as it applies to startup testing personnel, has been interpreted such that: experience in the operation and testing of power plants is acceptable in lieu of the stated experience in quality assurance on a one-for-one basis.Site personnel may require the services of technically qualified individuals toassist them in the performance of duties necessary to certify them to a specificlevel of ANSI N45.2.6-1973. As such, site personnel may call on the services of siteor home office specialists to perform some of the technical requirements of their duties, but only individuals qualified to Level II per ANSI N45.2.6-1973 will provide their signatures on documents as certification of the performance of the function.14.2.7.111.63 Electric Penetration Assemblies Containment Structures forLight-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants (10/73)14.2.7.121.65 Materials and Inspections for Reactor Vessel Closure Studs(10/73)14.2.7.131.68 Initial Test Programs for Water-Cooled Reactor Power Plants (Revision 2, 8/78).The following exceptions and/or clarifications address only significant differences between the Waterford 3test program and the applicable regulatory position. Minor terminology differences, testing not applicable to the plant design, and testing that is part of required surveillance tests will not be addressed. Referenceis made to the applicable portion of Regulatory Guide 1.68 (Revision 2, 8/78).14.2.7.13.1Reference Appendix A, Section 2.b This section suggests that rod drop times be measured for all control element assemblies (CEAS) at hotand cold full-flow and no-flow conditions.Waterford 3 CEA drop-time testing is consistent with the recommendations of the regulatory guide;however, tests which do not provide meaningful data will be deleted. As outlined in test summary 14.2.12.3.1, the CEA drop-time testing will consist of:a)One drop of each CEA at cold, maximum permissible flow conditions (2 or 3 reactor coolantpumps) and at hot, full-flow conditions.b)Those CEAs falling outside the two-sigma limit for similar CEAs will be dropped three additionaltimes.No-flow drops will not be performed as the Technical Specifications do not normally permit criticality underthese conditions.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-2414.2.7.13.2 Reference Appendix A, Section 3, and Appendix C, Section 3These sections require that a neutron count rate of at least 1/2 count per second should be registered onthe startup channels before the startup begins. Combustion Engineering's design criteria call for a neutron count rate of 1/2 count per second with all CEAs fully withdrawn and a multiplication of 0.98.

Therefore, prior to the initiation of the initial approach to criticality, the startup channels may see significantly less than 1/2 count per second; but prior to exceeding a multiplication of 0.98, the desired neutron count rate will have been achieved.14.2.7.13.3Reference Appendix A, Sections 4.b and 4.c These sections require a greatest worth control rod stuck out of the core test and a psuedo-rod-ejectiontest to be performed during low power testing. Since the Waterford 3 core is essentially identical to theSan Onofre core, these tests will not be performed at Waterford 3. Prior to the omission of these tests, the similarity of the San Onofre Unit No. 2 and the Waterford 3 cores will be demonstrated by the performance of CEA symmetry checks, CEA worth measurements, and critical boron measurements.14.2.7.13.4Reference Section C.8 and Appendix A, Section 5The standard CE test plateau power levels of 20, 50, 80, and 100 percent are used instead of therecommended power levels of 25, 50, 75, and 100 percent.14.2.7.13.5Reference Appendix A, Section 5.aThe complete set (20, 50, 80, and 100 percent power) of power reactivity coefficients will be measured atSan Onofre Unit No. 2. Since the Waterford 3 core is essentially identical to the San Onofre Unit No. 2core, the power reactivity coefficients will be measured only at 50 and 100 percent power.14.2.7.13.6Reference Appendix A, Sections 5.d, 5.e, and 5.f The xenon oscillation control, pseudo-rod-ejection, and dropped CEA tests will be performed at SanOnofre Unit No. 2, which has a core essentially identical to the Waterford 3 core. Since these tests are not necessary to assure system operation or to verify fuel and CEA loading, they will not be performed at Waterford 3. The essentially identical nature of the cores will be demonstrated by an analysis of CEA symmetry checks, CEA group worths, critical boron concentrations, and, in the power ascension phase, by incore detector data, prior to any reduction in the Waterford 3 testing.14.2.7.13.7Reference Appendix A, Section 5.i Since the Plant Protection System (CPCs and CEACS) detects the CEA positions by means of twoindependent sets of reed switches and uses this information in determining margin to trip, it is not necessary to rely on incore or excore nuclear instrumentation to detect control element misalignment.Thus, this testing will not be performed at Waterford 3.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-2514.2.7.13.8Reference Appendix A, Section 5.qWaterford 3 does not have a separate Failed Fuel Detection System. Therefore, this step does not apply.

14.2.7.13.9Reference Appendix A, Section 5.x Verification of the capabilities of auxiliary systems will be at the appropriate power level and will not belimited to the 50 and 100 percent plateaus.14.2.7.13.10Reference Appendix A, Section 5.hh The dynamic response of the plant will be demonstrated with step and ramp changes less than designvalues. Although the control systems are designed to accommodate the design transients, it would not beprudent to deliberately subject the fuel to these transients. In addition, these step and ramp changes will be performed at 50 and 100 percent power instead of 25, 50, 75, and 100 percent power.14.2.7.13.11Reference Appendix A, Section 5.iiThis section requires a loss of Reactor Coolant System (RCS) flow to be performed at 100 percent power.At Waterford 3, this test is scheduled to be performed at 80 percent power. Performance of the test at 80 percent power provides the same plant verification that performance at 100 percent power would provide while exposing the plant to less risk if any difficulty is experienced during the performance of the test.14.2.7.13.12Reference Appendix A, Section 5.mmThis section requires that the dynamic response of the plant to the automatic closure of the main steamisolation valves be demonstrated at 100 percent power. Performance of this test would expose the plantto the possibility of opening the primary and main steam safety valves. Instead, the same information can be obtained from the 100 percent power turbine trip test when the turbine stop valves go closed. The 100 percent power turbine trip test will result in essentially identical plant response, but should ensure that the primary and main steam safety valves do not lift.14.2.7.141.68.2 Initial Startup Test Program to Demonstrate Remote Shutdown Capability for Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants (Revision 1, 7/78)14.2.7.151.79 Preoperational Testing of Emergency Core Cooling Systemsfor Pressurized Water Reactors (Revision 1, 9/75)Instead of the recirculation test specified in C.l.b.(2), adequate vortex control and NPSH will be verified bya model test. The model test will be based on operating the high-pressure safety injection pumps and the containment spray pumps as the low-pressure safety injection pumps are stopped by a recirculation actuation signal.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-26Section C.l.c(2) recommends opening of the safety injection tank discharge isolation valves undermaximum differential pressure using both the normal and emergency power supplies. Conditions at the valve motor are independent of the power source for this test. Therefore, opening the valves using the emergency power supply would provide no additional meaningful data. The valves will be opened using the normal power supply only.14.2.7.161.80 Preoperational Testing of Instrument Air System (6/74)Instead of the tests specified in regulatory positions C.8, C.9, and C.10, tests will be conducted to verifythat a loss of instrument air pressure will not prevent the safety-related pneumatic valves from performing as designed.14.2.7.171.88 Collection, Storage, and Maintenance of NuclearPower Plant Quality Assurance Records (Revision 2, 10/76)14.2.7.181.95 Protection of Nuclear Power Plant Control Room OperatorsAgainst an Accidental Chlorine Release (Revision 1, 1/77)14.2.7.191.108 Periodic Testing of Diesel Generators Used as Onsite Electric Power Systems at Nuclear Power Plants (Revision 1, 8/77)14.2.7.201.116 Quality Assurance Requirements for Installation,Inspection, and Testing of Mechanical Equipment and Systems(Revision O-R, 6/7; reissued 5/77)14.2.7.211.123 Quality Assurance Requirements for Control of Procurementof Items and Services for Nuclear Power Plants (Revision 1, 7/77)14.2.7.221.129 Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Large Lead StorageBatteries for Nuclear Power Plants (Revision 1, 2/78)14.2.7.23IEEE Standard 415-1976, Guide for Planning of Pre-OperationalTesting Programs for Class 1E Power Systems for Nuclear PowerGenerating Stations14.2.8UTILIZATION OF REACTOR OPERATING AND TESTING EXPERIENCES INDEVELOPMENT OF TEST PROGRAMStartup with plant assistance will review testing and operating experiences that have occurred sinceJanuary 1976 at nuclear power stations with the Combustion Engineering NSSS.Additional sources of information may include NRC IE Circulars, NRC IE Information Notices, NRC IEBulletins, CE Availability Data Program Quarterly Reports, NRC Current Events for Power Reactors, NPRDS Quarterly and Yearly Reports, and EEI Abnormal Occurrence Reports.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-27This review will identify specific problem areas where essentially similar installations are involved or thosecategories of abnormal occurrences that are repeatedly experienced that could be applicable to dissimilar installations. This information will be reviewed and evaluated with reference to impact on startup procedure preparation to identify potential problem areas that may require special testing, procedure modification, or design changes.14.2.9TRIAL USE OF PLANT PROCEDURES One objective of the initial test program is to "use-test" plant procedures. Therefore, whenever practical,plant procedures will be referenced in, or used in lieu of, test procedures or portions thereof. A chrono-logical log is utilized in Phase II and Phase III procedures and can be used by personnel as means for providing remarks and recommendations pertaining to plant procedures related to, or referenced in, eachrespective test procedure.The plant procedures that may be used and/or reviewed in the different phases are instrumentation andcontrol procedures, maintenance procedures, operating procedures and instructions, emergency procedures, chemistry procedures, and radiation protection procedures.14.2.10INITIAL FUEL LOADING AND INITIAL CRITICALITY14.2.10.1Initial Fuel LoadingOverall direction, coordination, and control of the initial fuel loading evolution will be the responsibility ofthe Plant Manager-Nuclear. The Phase III Test Director will direct and coordinate the preparation of, and assist in the performance of, the initial fuel loading procedures as part of Phase III of the test program. Itis intended that qualified plant personnel will actually execute the procedures. Combustion Engineeringwill provide technical assistance during the initial fuel loading evolution.The fuel loading evolution will be controlled by use of approved plant procedures which will be used toestablish plant conditions, control access, establish security, control maintenance activities, and provideinstructions pertaining to the use of fuel handling equipment. The overall process of initial fuel loading willbe directed from the main control room. The evolution itself will be supervised by a licensed Senior Reactor Operator.In the unlikely event that mechanical damage to a fuel assembly is sustained during fuel loadingoperations, an alternate core loading scheme whose characteristics closely approximate those of the initially prescribed core configuration will be determined and approved by PORC prior to implementation.The fuel assemblies will be installed in the reactor vessel in water containing dissolved boric acid in aquantity calculated to maintain a core effective multiplication constant at 0.95, which is a boronconcentration of approximately 1720 ppm. It is not anticipated that the refueling cavity will be completelyfilled; however, the water level in the reactor vessel will be maintained above the installed fuel assemblies at all times.The Shutdown Cooling System will be in service to provide coolant circulation to ensure adequate mixingand a means of controlling water temperature. The refueling water storage pool will be in service and will contain borated water at a volume and concentration WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-28 Revision 306 (05/12) conforming to the Technical Specif ications. Applicable administrativ e controls will be used to prevent unauthorized alteration of system lineups or change to the boron concentration in the Reactor Coolant System. (EC-12329, R306)

In addition to the two permanently installed sour ce range flux monitors required by Technical Specifications, minimum instrumentation for fuel loading will consist of tw o temporary source range channels installed in the reactor vessel and response checked with a neutron source, one of which must be operable at all times during core alterations. T he temporary channels will display neutron count rate on a count rate meter installed in the containment and will be monitored by personnel conducting the fuel loading operation. The permanent channel will disp lay neutron count rate on a meter and recorder located in the main control room and will be monito red by licensed operators. In addition, at least one temporary channel and one permanent channel will be equipped with audible count rate indicators in two locations, temporary in the containment and permanent in the main control room. (EC-12329, R306)

Continuous area radiation monitoring will be provi ded during fuel handling and fuel loading operations.

Permanently installed radiation monitors display radi ation levels in the main control room and will be monitored by licensed operators.

Fuel assemblies together with inserted components w ill be placed in the reactor vessel one at a time according to a previously established and approv ed sequence which was developed to provide reliable core monitoring with minimum possibility of core mechanical damage. The initial fuel loading procedure will include detailed instructions which will prescribe successive movements of each fuel assembly from its initial position in the storage racks to its final position in the core. The procedures will establish a

system and a requirement for verification of each fuel assembly movement prior to proceeding with the next assembly. Checks will be made for fuel assemb ly and inserted component serial numbers prior to the start of fuel load and a load verification will be m ade following completion of fuel movement to verify correct position and orientation of each assembly and CEA. The location of each fuel assembly and inserted component will be displayed on a status boar d in the control room throughout the fueling evolution.

At least two fuel assemblies containing neutron s ources will be placed into the core at appropriate specified points in the initial fuel loading pr ocedure to ensure a neutron population large enough for adequate monitoring of the core. As each fuel assemb ly is loaded, at least tw o separate inverse count rate plots will be maintained to ensure that the extr apolated inverse count rate ratio behaves as would be expected. In addition, nuclear instrumentation will be monitored to ensure that the "just loaded" fuel assembly does not excessively increase the count rate. The results of each loading step will be reviewed

and evaluated by LP&L and designated technical advisor s before the next prescr ibed step is started.

14.2.10.1.1 Safe Loading Criteria

Criteria for the safe loading of fuel require that loading operations stop immediately if:

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-29a)The neutron count rate from either temporary nuclear channel unexpectedly doubles during anysingle loading step, excluding anticipated change due to detector and/or source movement or spatial effects (i.e., fuel assembly coupling source with a detector), orb)The neutron count rate on any individual nuclear channel increases by a factor of five during anysingle loading step, excluding anticipated changes due to detector and/or source movement or spatial effects (i.e., fuel assembly coupling source with a detector).In the event that an unexplained increase in count rate is observed on any nuclear channel, the last fuelassembly loaded shall be withdrawn. The procedure and loading operation will be reviewed and evaluatedbefore proceeding to ensure the safe loading of fuel.14.2.10.1.2Fuel Loading Procedure An approved detailed Phase III test procedure will be followed during the initial fuel loading to ensure thatthe evolution will be completed in a safe and controlled manner. This procedure will specify applicable precautions and limitations, prerequisites, initial conditions, and the necessary procedural steps.14.2.10.1.3Postcore Load TestsUpon completion of fuel loading, the reactor upper guide structure and the pressure vessel head will beinstalled, and additional mechanical and electrical tests will be performed prior to initial criticality. These tests will include but will not be limited to:a)Conducting final leak tests after the filling and venting of the Reactor Coolant System iscompleted.b)Performing electrical and operational checks on the control element drive mechanisms.

c)Performing functional checks on the control element assembly position indication system.d)Functional testing of the reactor control and protection system.e)Measuring control element drop times.

f)Performing electrical, mechanical, and functional checks of the fixed and movable incoredetectors.g)Installation, calibration, and functional testing of the temporary reactivity computer.

Additional testing requirements are specified in Subsection 14.2.12.3.

14.2.10.2Initial CriticalityOverall direction, coordination, and control of the initial criticality evolution will be the responsibility of thePlant Manager-Nuclear. The Phase III Test Director will direct WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-30and coordinate the preparation of, and assist in the performance of, the initial criticality procedure as partof Phase III of the test program. It is intended that qualified plant personnel will actually execute the procedure. Combustion Engineering will provide technical assistance during the initial criticality evolution.A predicted boron concentration for criticality will be determined for the precritical CEA configurationspecified in the procedure. This configuration will require all CEA groups to be fully withdrawn with the exception of the last regulating group, which will remain far enough into the core to provide effective control when criticality is achieved. This position will be specified in the procedure. The Reactor Coolant System (RCS) boron concentration will then be reduced to achieve criticality, at which time the regulating group will be used to control the chain reaction.Core response during CEA group withdrawal and RCS boric acid concentration reduction will bemonitored in the main control room by observing the change in neutron count rate as indicated by thepermanent startup nuclear instrumentation.Neutron count rate will be plotted as a function of CEA group position and RCS boron concentration duringthe approach to criticality. Primary safety reliance is based on inverse count rate ratio monitoring as an indication of the nearness and rate of approach to criticality during CEA group withdrawal and during the dilution of the reactor coolant boric acid concentration. The approach to criticality will be controlled, and specific holding points will be specified in the procedure. The results of the inverse count rate monitoring and the indications on installed instrumentation will be reviewed and evaluated by LP&L and designated technical advisors before proceeding to the next prescribed hold point.14.2.10.2.1Safe Criticality CriteriaCriteria for ensuring a safe and controlled approach to criticality require:a)That high flux trip setpoints will be reduced to a value equivalent tofive percent power or less.b)That a sustained startup rate of one decade per minute will not be exceeded.c)That CEA withdrawal or boron dilution shall be suspended if unexplainable changesin neutron count rates are observed.d)That CEA withdrawal or boron dilution shall be suspended if the extrapolatedinverse count rate ratio predicts criticality outside the tolerances specified in the procedure.e)That the Technical Specifications are adhered to.f)That criticality must be anticipated at any time positive reactivity is added by CEA withdrawal orboron dilution.g)That a minimum of one decade of overlap must be observed between the startup and log safetychannels of the excore nuclear instruments.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-3114.2.10.2.2Initial Criticality ProcedureAn approved detailed Phase III test procedure will be followed to attain the initial criticality of Waterford 3in a safe and controlled manner. The procedure will specify applicable precautions and limitations, prerequisites, initial conditions, and the necessary procedural steps. It is intended that this procedure will reference, direct, and coordinate the use of approved plant operating procedures and instructions. The evolution will be conducted by the plant operating staff under the supervision of a licensed Senior Reactor Operator with support from participating organizations.14.2.11TEST PROGRAM SCHEDULE The startup program for Waterford 3 encompasses approximately 36 months. Of this, approximately 22months will be devoted to the different phases of testing. The remaining 14 months will be used toorganize the WSG and to schedule procedure production and tests. To allow sufficient time to perform orderly and comprehensive testing, the WSG has scheduled at least nine months for Phase II testing and at least three months for Phase III testing.The scheduling of individual tests or test sequences will be made to ensure that all appropriate systems orcomponents which are relied upon to prevent or mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents will be tested prior to fuel loading. Prior to exceeding 25 percent of rated thermal power, appropriate safety-related systems will be tested for proper performance to provide reasonable assurance that they will operate satisfactorily when required.Prior to major evolutions in Phase III testing, prerequisite lists will be prepared for PORC approval. Theprerequisite lists shall enumerate tests that must be completed and approved by the JTG and/or PORC prior to the start of a particular Phase III testing sequence. The use of prerequisite lists will ensure that the safety of the plant will not be dependent on the performance of untested systems.Phase II and Phase III test procedures shall be approved and available for review by NRC staff personnelfrom the Office of Inspection and Enforcement at least 60 days prior to their intended use. All Phase II and III test procedures to be completed after the receipt of the Operating License shall be approved and available for review by NRC staff personnel from the Office of Inspection and Enforcement at least 60 days prior to initial fuel load.14.2.12INDIVIDUAL TEST DESCRIPTION 14.2.12.1Phase I TestingPhase I testing will include requirements for verification of the completion and documentation ofconstruction activities and the performance of certain prerequisite testing. The prerequisite testing will verify that the components, and systems as applicable, have been designed and installed properly and are ready for Phase II testing. Prerequisite testing includes items such as those listed in Appendix C, Regulatory Guide 1.68 (Revision 2, 8/78), which are required prior to Phase II testing.

WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 14.2-32The type and extent of testing on an individual system as well as the responsibility for completing suchtests will be specified by the Waterford 3 Startup Group.
