F 1-21 Amendment No. 27

3.5.5.2 If the setpoint for a radioactive effluent monitor alarm and/or trip is found to be higher than required.

one of the following three measures shall be taken immediately:

(i) the setpoint shall be immediately corrected without declaring the channels inoperable; or immediately suspend the release of effluents monitored by the effected channel; or.

(iii) declare the channel inoperable.

3.5.5.3 If the number of channels which are operable is found to be less than required, take the action shown in Table 3.5-5. Exert best efforts to return the instruments to OPERABLZ status within 31 days and, if

. 2..V>i unsuccessful, explain in the next Radio-active Effluent Release Report why the inoperability was not corrected in a timely manner.

3.5.6 Control Room HVAC Detection Systems 3.5.6.1 During all modes of plant operation, detection systems for chlorine gas, ammonia gas and radioactivity in the control room HVAC intake shall be operable with setpoints to isolate air intake adjusted as follows:

3.5-2a Amendment No. 29

Basis:

The reactor coolant system conditions of cold shutdown assure that no steam will be formed and hence there would be no pressure buildup in. the containment if the reactor coolant system ruptures.

The shutdown margins are selected based on the type of activities that are being carried out. The (2000 ppm) boron concentration provides shutdown margin which precludes criticality under any circumstances. When the reactor head is not. to be removed, a cold shutdown margin of 14k/k precludes criticality in any occurrence.

Regarding internal pressure limitations, the containment design pressure of 60 psig would not be exceeded if the internal pressure before a major steam break accident were as much as 1 psig.'" The containment is designed to withstand an internal vacuum of 2.5 psig.<'> The 2.0 psig vacuum is specified as an operating limit to avoid any difficulties with motor cooling.

In order to minimize containment leakage during a design basis accident involving a significant fission product release, penetrations not required for accident mitigation are provided with isolation boundaries. These isolation boundaries consist of either passive devices or active automatic valves and are listed in a procedure un er t e control o Closed manual valves, deactivated automatic va ves secured xn their closed position (including check valves with flow through the valve secured), blind flanges and closed systems are considered passive devices. Automatic isolation valves designed to close following an accident without operator action, are considered active devices.

Two isolation devices are provided for each mechanical penetration, such that no single credible failure or malfunction of an active component can cause a loss of isolation, or result in a leakage rate that exceeds limits assumed in the safety analyses<'>.

In the event that one isolation boundary is inoperable, the affected penetration must be isolated with at least one boundary that is not affected by a single active failure. Isolation boundaries that meet this criterion are a closed and deactivated automatic containment isolation valve, a closed manual valve, or a blind flange.

The opening of closed containment isolation valves on an intermittent basis under administrative control includes the following considerations: (1) stationing an individual qualified in accordance with station procedures, who is in constant communication with the control room, at the valve controls, (2) instructing this individual to close these valves in an accident situation, and (3) assuring that environmental conditions will not preclude access to isolate the boundary and that this action will prevent the release of radioactivity outside the containment.

Amendment No. 4S > 54 3. 6-3

6.9-2 when averaged over any calendar quarter, a Special Report shall be submitted to the Commission within thirty days which includes an evaluation of any release conditions, environmental factors or other aspects which caused the reporting levels of Table 6.9-2 to be exceeded.

When mo. e than one of the radionuclides in Table 6.9-2 are detect d in the sampling medium, this eport shal'e submitted if:

concentration 1 + concentration (2 + ....> 1.0 lima.t level (1) limit level (2)

When radionuclides othe than those in Table 6.9-2 are deflected and are the result of plant effluents, this report shall be submitted if the potential annual dose to an individual is greater than the calendar year limit of Specifications 3.9.1.2.a or 3.9.2.2.b.. This report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant effluents; however, in such an event, the condition shall be reported and d scribed in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

3.16.1.4 If milk or fresh leafy vegetable samples are unavailable for more than one sample period from one or more of the sampling locations indicated by the ODCM, a dis-cussion shall be included in the Radioactive Re.4e.o.~

Basis:

The reactor coolant system conditions of cold shutdown assure that no steam will be formed and hence there would be no pressure buildup in the containment if the reactor coolant system ruptures.

The shutdown margins are selected based on the type of activities that- are being carried out. The (2000 ppm) boron concentration provides shutdown margin which precludes criticality under any circumstances. When the reactor head is not to be removed, a cold shutdown margin of ll~k/k precludes criticality in any occurrence.

Regarding internal pressure limitations, the containment design pressure of 60 psig would not be exceeded if the internal pressure before a major steam break accident were as much as 1 psig.<" The containment is designed to withstand an internal vacuum of 2.5 psig.">

The 2.0 psig vacuum is specified as an operating limit to avoid any difficulties with motor cooling.

In order to minimize containment leakage during a design basis accident involving a significant fission product release, penetrations not required for accident mitigation are provided with isolation boundaries. These isolation boundaries consist of either passive devices or active automatic valves and are listed in a procedure under the control of the Quality Assurance Program. Closed manual valves, deactivated automatic valves secured in their closed position (including check valves with flow through the valve

,secured), blind flanges and closed systems are considered passive devices. Automatic isolation valves designed to close following an accident without operator action, are considered active devices. Two isolation devices are provided for each mechanical penetration, such that no single credible failure or malfunction of an active component can cause a loss of isolation, or result in a leakage rate that exceeds limits assumed in the safety analyses@.

In the event that one isolation boundary is inoperable, the affected penetration must be isolated with at least one boundary that is not affected by a single active failure. Isolation boundaries that meet this criterion are a closed and deactivated automatic containment isolation valve, a closed manual valve, or a blind flange.

The opening of closed containment isolation valves on an intermittent basis under administrative control includes the following considerations: (1) stationing an individual qualified in accordance with station procedures, who is in constant communication with the control room, at the valve controls, (2) instructing this individual to close these valves in an accident situation, and (3) assuring that environmental conditions will not preclude access to isolate the boundary and that this action will prevent the release of radioactivity outside the containment.

concentration 1 + concentration 2 + ....> 1.0 limit level (1) limit level (2)

This report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant effluents; however, in such an event, the condition shall be reported and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.
