REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES CHEMISTRY (Continued)
Conductivity measurements are required on a continuous basis since changes in this parameter are an indication of abnormal conditions.
When the conductivity is within limits, the pH, chlorides and other impurities affecting conductivity must also be within 'their acceptable limits.
With the conductivity meter inoperable, additional samples must be analyzed to ensure that the chlorides are not exceeding the limits.
The surveillance requirements provide adequate assurance that concentrations in excess of the limits will be detected in sufficient time to take corrective action.
3/4.4. 5 SPECIFIC ACTIVITY The limitations on the specific activity of the primary coolant ensure that the 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> thyroid and whole body doses resulting from a main steam line failure outside the containment during steady state operation will not exceed small fractions of the dose guidelines of 10 CFR 100.
The values for the limits on specific activity represent interim limits based upon a parametric evaluation by the NRC of typical site locations.
These values are conservative in that specific site parameters such as site boundary location and meteorological conditions, were not considered in this evaluation.
The ACTION statement permitting POWER OPERATION to continue for limited time periods with the primary coolant s specific activity greater than 0.2 microcuries per gram OOSE E(UIVALENT I-131, but less than or equal to 4.0 micro-curies per gram 00SE E(UIVALENT I-131, accommodates possible iodine spiking phenomenon which may occur following changes in THERMAL POWER.
Information obtained on iodine spiking will be used to assess the parameters associated with spiking phenomena.
A reduction in frequency of isotopic analysis following power changes may be permissible if justified by the data obtained.
Closing the main steam line isolation valves prevents the release of activity to the environs should a steam line rupture occur outside containment.
The surveillance requirements provide adequate assurance that excessive specific activity levels in the reactor coolant will be detected in sufficient time to'ake corrective action.
SUSQUEHANNA - UNIT 1 B 3/4 4-3 Amendment No. 63
REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES 3/4. 4. 6 PRESSURE/TEMPERATURE LIMITS All components in the reactor coolant system are designed to withstand the effects of cyclic loads due to system temperature and pressure changes.
These cyclic loads are introduced by normal" load transients, reactor trips, and startup and shutdown operations.
The various categories of load cycles used for design purposes are provided in Section 3.9 of the FSAR.
During startup and shutdown, the rates of temperature and pressure changes are 1imited so that the maximum specified heatup and cooldown rates are consistent with the design assumptions and satisfy the stress limits for cyclic operation.
During heatup, the thermal gradients in the reactor vessel wall produce thermal stresses which vary from compressive at the inner wall to tensile at the outer wall.
These thermal induced compressive stresses tend to alleviate the tensile stresses induced by the internal pressure.
Therefore, a pressure-temperature curve based on steady state conditions, i.e.,
no thermal stresses, represents a lower bound of all similar curves for finite heatup rates when the inner wall,of the vessel is treated as the governing location.
The heatup analysis also covers the determination of pressure-temperature:.
limitations for the case in which the outer wall of the vessel becomes the controlling location.
The thermal gradients established during heatup produce tensile stresses which are already present.
The thermal induced stresses at the outer wall of the vessel are tensile and are dependent on both the rate of heatup and the 'time along the heatup ramp; therefore, a lower bound curve similar to that described for the heatup of the inner wall cannot be defined.
Subsequently, for the cases in which the outer wall of the vessel becomes the stress controlling location, each heatup rate of interest must be analyzed on an individual basis.
The reactor vessel materials have been tested to determine their initial RTNDT.
The results of these tests are sh'own in Table B 3/4.4. 6-1.
Reactor operation and resultant fast neutron, E greater than I MeV, irradiation will cause'n increase in the RTNDT.
Therefore, an adjusted reference temperature, based upon the fluence, phosphorus content and copper content of the material in question, can be predicted using Bases Figure B 3/4.4.6-1 and the recommenda-tions of Regulatory Guide 1. 99, Revision I, "Effects of Residual Elements on Predicted Radiation= Damage to Reactor Vessel Materials."
The pressure/
tempera-ture limit curve, Figure 3.4.6. 1-1, curves A', B'nd C', includes predicted adjustments for this shift in RTNDT for the end of life fluence.
The actual shift in RTNDT of the vessel material will be established periodically during operation by removing and evaluating, in accordance with ASTM E185-73 and 10 CFR 50, Appendix M, irradiated reactor vessel material specimens installed near the inside wall of the reactor vessel in the core area.
The irradiated specimens can be used with confidence.in predicting SUS(UEHANNA - UNIT 1

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES CHEMISTRY (Continued)
Conductivity measurements are required on a continuous basis since changes in this parameter are an indication of abnormal conditions.
When the conductivity is within limits, the pH, chlorides and other impurities affecting conductivity must also be within their acceptable limits.
With the conductivity meter inoperable, additional samples must be analyzed to ensure that the chlorides are not exceeding the limits.
The surveillance requirements provide adequate assurance that concentrations in. excess of the limits will be detected in sufficient time to take corrective action.
3/4.4. 5 SPECIFIC ACTIVITY The limitations on the specific activity of the primary coolant ensure that the 2-hour thyroid and whole body doses resulting from a main steam line failure outside the containment during steady state operation will not exceed small fractions of the dose guidelines of 10 CFR Part 100.
The values for the limits on specific activity represent interim limits based upon a parametric evaluation by the NRC of typical site locations.
These values are conservative in that specific site parameters such as SITE BOUNDARY location and meteorological conditions, were not considered in this evaluation.
The ACTION statement permitting POWER OPERATION to continue for limited time periods with the primary coolant s specific activity greater than 0.2 microcurie per gram DOSE E(UIVALENT I-131, but less than or equal to 4.0 microcuries per gram DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131, accommodates possible iodine spiking phenomenon which may occur following changes in THERMAL POWER.
Information obtained on iodine spiking will be used to assess the param-eters associated with spiking phenomena.
A reduction in frequency of isotopic analysis following power changes may be permissible if justified by the data obtained.
Closing the main steam line isolation valves prevents the release of activity to the environs should a steam line rupture occur outside contain-ment.
The surveillance requirements provide adequate assurance that excessive specific activity levels in the reactor coolant will be detected in sufficient time to take corrective action.
SUSQUEHANNA UNIT 2 B 3/4 4-3 Amendment No.

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES 3/4.4.6 PRESSURE/TEMPERATURE LIMITS All components in the reactor coolant system are designed to withstand the effects of cyclic loads due to system temperature and pressure changes.
These cyclic loads are introduced by normal load transients, reactor trips, and startup and shutdown operations.
The various categories of load cycles used for design purposes are provided in Section 3.9 of the FSAR.
During startup and shutdown, the rates of temperature and pressure changes are limited so that the maximum specified heatup and cooldown rates are consistent with the design assumptions and satisfy the stress limits for cyclic operation.
During heatup, the thermal gradients in the reactor vessel wall produce thermal stresses which vary from compressive at the inner wall to tensile at the outer wall.
These thermal induced compressive stresses tend to alleviate the tensile stresses induced by the internal pressure.
Therefore, a pressure-temperature curve based on steady state conditions, i.e.,
no thermal stresses, represents a lower bound of all similar curves for finite heatup rates when the inner wall of the vessel is treated as the governing location.
The heatup analysis also covers the determination of pressure-temperature limitations for the case in which the outer wall of the vessel becomes the controlling location.
The thermal gradients established during heatup produce tensile stresses which are already present.
The thermal induced stresses at the outer wall of the vessel are tensile and are dependent on both the rate of heatup and the time along the heatup ramp; therefore, a lower bound curve similar to that described for the heatup of the inner wall cannot be defined.
Subsequently, for the cases in which the outer wall of the vessel becomes the stress control,ling location, each heatup,rate of interest must be analyzed on an individual basis.
The reactor vessel materials have been tested to determine their initial RTNDT The results of these tests are shown in Table B 3/4;4.6-1.
Reactor operation and resultant fast neutron, E greater than 1 MeV, irradiation will cause an increase in the RTNDT.
Therefore, an adjusted reference temperature, based upon the fluence, phosphorus content and copper content of the material in question, can be predicted using Bases Figure B 3/4.4.6-1 and the recommenda-tions of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 1, "Effects of Residual Elements on Predicted Radiation Damage to Reactor Vessel Materials."
The pressure/
tempera-ture limit curve, Figure 3.4.6.1-1 includes predicted adjustments for this shift in RTNDT for the end of life fluence.
The actual shift in RTNDT of the vessel material will be established periodically during operation by removing and evaluating, in accordance with ASTM E185-73 and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix H, irradiated reactor vessel material specimens installed near the inside wall of the reactor vessel in the core area.
The irradiated specimens can be used with confidence in predicting reactor vessel material transition temperature shift.
The operating limit curves of Figure 3.4.6.1-1 shall be adjusted, as required, on the basis of the specimen data and recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 1.
