0 TERM5257-123/124 1 INTRODUCTION 1 1 PURPOSE OF REVIEN This technical evaluation report documents the Franklin Research Center's (FRC) review of general load handling policy and procedures at the Florida Power and Light Company's Turkey Point Units 3 and 4. This evaluation was performed with the following objectives:,

o to-assess conformance to the general load handling guidelines of

'NUREG-0612, "Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants" [1] <

Section 5.1.1 o to assess conformance to the interim protection measures of NUREG-0612, Section 5.3.

1e 2 GENERIC BACKGROUND Generic Technical Activity Task A-36 was established by the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission '{NRC) staff to systematically examine sta'ff licensing criteria and the, adequacy of measures in effect at operating'uclear power plants to assure the safe handling of heavy loads and to recommend necessary changes in these measures. This activity was initiated by a letter issued by the NRC staff on May 17, 1978 [2] to all power reactor licensees, requesting information concerning the control of heavy loads near spent fuel.

The results of Task A-36 were reported in NUREG-0612, "Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Pl'ants. " The staff's conclusion from this evaluation was that existing measures to control the 'handling of heavy loads at operating plants, although providing protection from certain potential problems, do not adequately cover the major causes of load handling accidents and should be upgraded.

In order to upgrade measures for the control of heavy loads, the staff developed a series of guidelines designed to achieve a two-part objective using an accepted approach or protection philosophy. The first portion of the objective, achieved through a set of general guidelines identified in NUREG-0612, Article S.l.l, is to ensure that all load handling systems at 00 Franklin Research Center A Dlvbkn ot 1he FrankSn InaNae

f TERM5257-123/124 nuclear power plants are designed and operated so that their probability of failure is'uniformly small and appropriate for the critical tasks in which they are employed. The second portion of the staff's objective, achieved through guidelines identified in NUREG-0612, Articles 5.1. 2 'through 5.1.5, is to ensure that, for load handling systems in areas where their failure might result in significant consequences, either (1) features are provided, in addition to those required for all load-handling systems, to ensure that the potential for a load drop is extremely small (e.g., a single-failure-proof

~

crane). or (2) conservative evaluations of load-handling accidents indicate that the potential consequences of any load drop are acceptably small.

Acceptability of accident consequences is quantified in NUREG-0612 into four accident analysis evaluation criteria.

The approach used to develop the staff guidelines for minimizing the potential for a load drop was based on defense in depth and is summarized as follows:

1. provide sufficient operator training, handling system design< load handling instructions, and equipment inspection to assure reliable operation of the handling system 2; define safe load travel paths through, procedures and operator training so 'that, to the extent practical, heavy loads are not carried over or near irradiated fuel or safe shutdown equipment
3. provide mechanical. stops or electrical interlocks to prevent movement of heavy loads over irradiated fuel or in proximity to equipment associated with redundant shutdown paths.

Staff guidelines resulting from the foregoing are tabulated in Section 5 of NUREG-f612. Section 6 of NUREG-0612 recommended that a program be initiated to ensure that these guidelines are implemented at operating plants.

1.3 PLANT-SPECIFIC BACKGROUND On December 22, 1980, the NRC issued a letter [3] to Florida Power and Light Company (FPL), the Licensee for Turkey Point> Units 3 and 4< requesting that the Licensee. review provisions for handling and control of heavy loads at Turkey Point, evaluate these provisions with respect to the guidelines of II'ranklin Research Center A OMsion d The FnnkKn nstltute

TERM 5257>>123/124 2 EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS FRC's evaluation of load handling at Turkey Point is divided into two categories. These categories deal separately with the general guidelines of NUREG-0612, Article 5.1.1, and the recommended interim measures of Article 5.3 or their equivalents from NUREG-0612. Applicable guidelines are referenced in each category. FRC's conclusion and recommendations are,:provided in the summary for each guideline.

2 1 GENERAL GUIDELINES The NRC has established seven general guidelines which must be met in order to provide the defense-inMepth approach for the handling of heavy loads. These guidelines consist of the following criteria from Section 5.1.1 of NUREG-0612:

o Guideline 1 - Safe Load Paths o Guideline 2 - Load Handling Procedures o Guideline 3 - Crane Operator Training o Guideline 4 Special Lifting Devices o Guideline 5 . Lifting Devices (Not Specially. Designed) o Guideline 6 - Cranes (Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance) o Guideline 7 - Crane Design.

These seven guidelines should be satisfied for all overhead handling systems and programs used to handle heavy loads in the vicinity of the reactor vessel, near spent fuel in the spent fuel pool, or in other areas where a load

'rop may damage safe shutdown systems.

The Licensee's verification of the extent to which these guidelines have been satisfied and FRC's evaluation of this verification are contained in Sections 2. 1.1 through 2. 1.8 of this report.

2.1.1 Overhead Hea Load Handlin S stems The Licensee conducted a review of all overhead handling systems at Turkey Point to determine which overhead handling systems are subject to this Pl] Franklin Research Center A Divison cd The FrarhBn Inkiest

~i I I

TERM5257-123/124 review. The Licensee identified the following overhead handling .systems andi equipment as those from which a load drop could result in damage to plant shutdown or decay heat removal systems taking no.credit for interlocks, technical specifications, operating procedures, detailed structural analysis or system redundancy.

o charging pump monorails o safety injection pump monorails o main steam platform monogails o tuxbine gantry cranes o reactor polar cranes o reactor cavity manipulator crane o fuel transfer machine o spent fuel bridge crane o fuel pool bulkhead .monorail o spent fuel cask crane o intake structure bridge crane.

The Licensee also .provided a tabulation of load handling systems for which they have determined by -inspection that there is sufficient physical separation between any load impact point and any safety-related component.

2.1. 2 Safe Load Paths Guideline 1, NUREG-0612, Article 5.1.1(l)

"Safe load paths should be, defined for the movement of heavy loads to minimize the potential fox heavy loads, if dropped, to impact irradiated fuel in the reactor vessel and in the spent fuel pool, or to impact safe shutdown equipment. The path should follow, to the extent practical, structural floor members, beams, etc., such, that if the load is dropped, the structure is more likely to withstand the impact. These load paths should be defined in procedures, shown on equipment layout drawings, and clearly marked on the floor in the area where the load is to be handled.

Deviations from defined load paths .should require written alternative procedures approved by the plant safety review committee. "

a. Summar, of Licensee Statements and Conclusions The. Licensee has stated that "safe load paths areas" have been defined for the turbine gantry cranes, reactor polar cranes, spent fuel handling crane, I Franklin Research Center A Division or The Ftanldh Inscutc

,P ii

TER-C5257-123/124 and intake structure bridge crane. A maintenance procedure (0736) has been prepared which defines the safe areas for load carrying by. these cranes and requires operation within these areas. Deviation from this procedure" requires prior written approval by the Maintenance Supervisor. FPL has indicated that unless safety concerns are raised in their final report on this subject> local path restriction will not be imposed during cold shutdown. periods except over irradiated fuel and the'eactor vessel.

FPL has indicated that no safe load path areas have been provided for the remaining load handling systems tabulated in Section 2. 1.1. These systems have been determined to be exempt from these requirements on the basis of several crane-specific considerations.

o The reactor cavity manipulator crane, fuel transfer machine, and spent fuel bridge crane do not handle loads weighing more than one fuel asserably plus a handling tool. The consequences of a fuel handling accident have been evaluated and determined to be acceptable in the Turkey Point Final Safety Analysis Report.

o The fuel pool bulkhead, charging pump, safety injection pump, and main steam platform monorail physically restrict load handling to a single pa th . In thee first .three cases, special precautions and instructions.

will be provided to meet the intent of the safe load path requiremennt..

In the case of the charging and safety injection pumps, for example, handling heavy loads over operating pumps, when required for safe shutdown, will be forbidden.'he main steam platform monorails handle only safety-related valves which can be removed only when the plant is shut down and their safety function is not required.

b. FRC Evaluation Review of Licensee responses and sketches indicates that areas have been established, for the turbine gantry, reactor polar, spent fuel cask>, and intake structure cranes, over whi'ch the movement of heavy loads is restricted or excluded. However, specific pathways for the movement of heavy loads have not been designated. The use of exclusion areas partially'satisfies the requirements of Guideline 1: it does prevent load drops in the vicinity of irradiated fuel and safe shutdown equipment. It does not, however, ensure that specific heavy loads are routed on the basis of an engineering review of

[ill Frankiin Research Center A DMS ot The Frsnk5n Income

I i

TER-C52S7-3.23/124 system and structural arrangements in a manner to minimize the hazard associated with a load drop. This can be accomplished only through a load-by-load analysis, giving d ue consideration cons to the location of structural members while minimizing the load travel path, which provides specific pathways for each heavy load. The implementation of these pathways, through procedures, physical markings, and suitable drawings, will ensure that these pathways are clearly identified for operators, load-handling supervisions, and plant maintenance personne 1 > an d th a t the loads can be moved along well-established routes 'kept clear and uncluttered by temporary equipment "or stores.

FPL has also indicated than any, deviation from the safe load area (assumed to mean any redesignation of safe load areas or infringement upon exclusion areas) requires written approval of the Maintenance Supervisor.

This approval is not consistent with the guideline requirements of approval by the plant safety review committee. While it's recognized that the specific designation of a plant, safety review committee may not be applicable to all licensees, the intent of the"requirement was to ensure that deviation from.

safe load paths, once established, was allowed only following review and approval by personnel responsible for overall plant safety and not by those primarily responsible for maintenance.,

FRC concurs with the Licensee's position concerning safe load paths for the reactor cavity manipulation crane, fuel transfer machine, spent fuel bridge crane, and various monorail hoists.

c. FRC Conclusions and Recommendations Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 partially comply with Guxdelane l. In order to comply with this guidel'ine, the Licensee should perform the following:
1. define safe load paths where practical. The use of exclusion areas should be limited to miscellaneous maintenance areas and lifts where the designation of individ'ual load paths is impractical.
2. verify that heavy loads and their, safe load paths have been identified in the plant procedure for controlling heavy loads
3. verify that, the selection of load paths considers the location of structural members and beams till Franklin Research Center A DIAfon of The FrankÃn fnttittrte

Oi J

TERM5257-123/124

4. verify that safe load paths have been clearly marked on floors or structures
5. verify that deviations from load paths require written alternatives approved by the plant's safety review committee (or equivalent).
2. 1. 3 Load Handlin Procedures Guideline 2 NUREG-0612, Article S.l.l(2)

"Procedures should be developed to cover load handling operations for heavy loads that are or could be handled over or in proximity to irradiated fuel or safe shutdown equipment. At a minimum,,procedures should cover handling of those loads listed in Table 3-1 of NUREG-0612.

'These procedures should include: identification of required equipment; inspections and acceptance criteria required before movement of load; the steps and proper sequence to be followed in handling the load; defining the safe path; and other"special precautions. "

a. Summar of Licensee Statements and Conclusions FPL has identified special procedures for the following heavy loads which are periodically handled in the vicinity of irradiated fuel in the reactor core or spent fuel pool:

o spent fuel shipping cask o reactor missile shield o pressurizer missile shield o reactor vessel head o upper internals o fuel cask crane load block.

A procedure for .handling the fuel pool bulkhead is being prepared and will be implemented prior to the next Unit 4 refueling outage.

FPL stated that the procedures follow Guideline 2.

b. FRC Evaluation FPL has provided a response with respect only to certain heavy loads equivalent to the example loads identified in Table 3-1 of NUREG-0612. No information has been provided concerning procedures for heavy loads handled in ll( Franklin Research Center A Dillon ot gabe FcankKn Insdtutc

c. FRC Conclusions and Recommendations FPL,partially complies with Guideline 2. The following is required for It full compliance.
l. identify all loads which are or could be (i.e., without credit for interlocks, technical specifications, operating procedures or detailed structure analysis) carried in the vicinity of irradiated fuel or safe shutdown equipment.
2. prepare procedures containing the information identified in Guideline 2 for those loads not identified in 2. l. 3.a above (i. e., Reference 4, Table 2).

"Crane operators should be trained, qualified and conduct themselves in

'ccordance with Chapter 2-3 of ANSI B30. 2-1976, 'Overhead and'antry Cranes'5]. "

a. Summar of Licensee Statements and Conclusions A training program in accordance with ANSI B30.2-1976 is being developed.

FPL is presently consolidating the requirement of ANSI B30.2-1976 and the Nuclear Mutual Limited Property Loss Prevention Standard 'on Cranes and Rigging with the intention to revise their administrative procedure (0736) covering crane operator qualification, training, and conduct. A comprehensive description of actions to be taken in response to this guideline has been deferred until FPC's final response to the NUREG-0612 Request for Information.

b., FRC Evaluation FPL has provided insufficient information to'llow a determination concerning the satisfaction of this guideline.

c. FRC Conclusions and Recommendations Conclusions and recommendations covering Guideline 3 must be deferred until a comprehensive response is received. The Licensee should ensure that the response addresses operator selection and conduct as well as training.

This standard should apply to all special. lifting devices which carry heavy loads in areas as defined above. For operating plants certain inspections and load tests may be accepted in lieu of certain material requirements in the, standard. In addition, the stress design factor stated in Section 3.2.1.1 of ANSI N14.6 should be based'n'he combined maximum static and dynamic loads that could be imparted on the handling device based on, characteristics of the crane which will be used. This is l.

in, lieu of the guideline in Section 3. 2. 1 of ANSI N14. 6 which bases the stress design factor on only the weight (static load) of the load and of the intervening components of the special handling, device.'"

a. Summar of Licensee Statements and,Conclusions FPL has indicated that "nuclear shipping containers meet the requirement of ANSI N14.6."

b. FRC Evaluation FPL did not satisfactoril y address Guideline. 4. NUREG-0612 does not to .the shipping container alone. This guideline addresses the of ANSI N14.6 for all special lifting devices used to handle 'mplementation heavy loads in the vicinity of spent fuel or equipment required for safe shutdown or decay heat removal..
c. FRC Conclusions and Recommendations Insufficient information has been provided to allow a determination of compliance with respect to Guideline 4. The Licensee should provide an evaluation concerning compliance with ANSI N14. 6 for all special lifting devices (e.g., reactor vessel head and internal lifting rigs, fuel cask lifting device). Further, in performing their evaluation, the Licensee should address the imposition of static and dynamic loads when assessing design stresses.

TER-C5257-123/124 FRC has reviewed ANSI N14. 6-1978 and has identified several sections which affect load handling reliability.'t is FRC's judgment that these sections (3.1 Designer's Responsibilities, 3. 2 Design Criteria, 3. 3 Design Considerations, 4.1 Fabricator's Responsibilities, and 5.;0 Acceptance Testing<

Maintenance and Assurance of'ontinued Compliance) identify important information'hich should be readily available to the Licensee (e.g., critical parts list). or provide requirements to which the Licensee should adhere in order to adequately, substantiate the reliability of special lifting devices.

While recognizing that this standard probably did not .exist at the time of design and manufacture of Turkey Point special lifting devices, it is not anticipated that obtaining this information or compliance with selected criteria is inappropriate since {1) requirements of the standard are akin to established industry practices and this standard essentially codifies such practices for special lifting devices; and {2) these lifting devices are used for infrequent lifts of the plant's largest components, generally in the direct vicinity of irradiated fuel< which makes their design, fabrication, and continued testing a matter of significance for both the Licensee and the NRC.

With the foregoing in mind, it has been determined that compliance with Guideline 4 requires that the following specific sections of ANSI N14.6 be addressed by the Licensee:

Section 3. Although this section deals with specifications for new handling devices, certain information is important and should be readily

.available to the Licensee. This information includes the following:

1. Section 3.1:
a. lim'itations xmr on the use of the lifting devices (3. 1. 1)
b. identification of critical components and definxtion-o critical charact:eristics, (3. l. 2)
c. signed stress analyses. which demonstrate appropriate margins of safety (3.1.3)
d. indication of permissible repair procedures (3.1. 4).
2. Section 3. 2:
a. use of stress design factors of three for minimum y'ield s trength reng and five for ultimate .strength (3.2.1)
b. similar stress design factors for load bearing prns,

c. slings used coraply with AHSZ B30. 9-1971 (3. 2.5)
d. subjecting materials to dead weight testing or Charpy impact testing (3. 2. 6) .
3. 'ection 3.3:
a. consideration of problems related to possible lamellar tearing (3. 3. 1)
b. design shall assure even distribution. of the load (3. 3. 4)
c. retainers fitted for load carrying components which may become inadvertently disengaged (3. 3. 5)
d. verification that remote actuating mechanisms securely engage or disengage (3.3. 6).

Section 4. Similar to those stated for Section 3, most standard criteria concerning fabrication cannot be'applied in retrospect. However, the Licensee should have available certain information, including the following:

l. Section 4.1:
a. verify selection and use of material (4.1.3)
b. compliance with fabrication practice (4.1. 4)
c. 'qualification of welders> procedures, and operators (4. 1. 5)
d. provisions for a quality assurance program (4. 1. 6)
e. provisions for identification and certification of equipment (4. l. 7)
f. verification that. materials or services are produced under appropriate controls and qualifications (4.1.9).

Section 5. This section deals with acceptance and follow-on testing and all criteria related to proving load handling reliability are the responsibil-ity of the owner and should be complied with, including the following items:

Section 5.1:

,a. implementation of a periodic testing schedule and a system to indicate the date of expiration (5.1.3)

b. provisions for establishing operating procedures (5.1.4) c identification of, subassemblies which may be exchanged (5. l. 5)
d. suitable markings (5. l. 6)
e. maintaining a full record of history (5.1.7)
f. conditions for removal from service (5.1.8).

20 Section 5.2:

a. load test to 1508 and appropriate inspections prior to initial use (5. 2.1)
b. qualification of replacement parts (5. 2. 2) .

However, in selecting the proper sling, the load used should be the sum of the static and maximum dynamic load. The rating identified on the sling should be in terms of the 'static load'hich produces the maximum.

static and dynamic. load. Where this restricts'lings to use on only certain cranes, the slings should'e clearly marked as to the, cranes. with which they may be used.."

a. Summar of Licensee Statements and Conclusions FPL has indicated that "the program for sling use and maintenance at Turkey Point Units 3 a 4 meets the requirement of ANSZ B30.9. "
b. FRC Evaluation

'FPL did not satisfactorily address Guideline 5. A program for sling care and maintenance meeting the requirements of ANSZ B30.9 does not ensure that slings are selected for maximum working loads as specified in, ANSZ B30.9-1971 based on static and dynamic loads nor that slings are, marked with the maximum static load rating and crane use restrictions where applicable.

c. FRC Conclusions and Recommendation FPL partially complies with Guideline 5. The Licensee selection and marking of slings should be evaluated.

ANSI B30. 2, however, calls for certain inspections to be performed daily or monthly. For such cranes having limited usage, the inspections, test, and maintenance should be performed prior to their, use) ."

a. Summar of Licensee Statement and Conclusion FPL's crane inspection, testing, and maintenance program at Turkey Point Units. 3 and 4 is expected to be revised by the end of 1981 to incorporate a single FPL policy on this subject based on the requirements and recommen-dations of ANSI B30. 2-1976 and Nuclear Mutual Limited's Property Loss Prevention Standard on Cranes and Rigging, respectively.
b. FRC Evaluation FPL is in the process of modifying Turkey Point's inspection, testing, o'

a. Summar of Licensee Statements and Conclusions 4

"The overhead traveling bridge cranes listed in Table 1 of this report are designed to the Electric Overhead Crane Institute Specification 61.

"Specifications for Electric Overhead Traveling Cranes" (EOCI 461) and the applicable ANSI safety standards in effect at the time of the manufacture of the cranes. These specifications and standards are the predecessors of CMAA 470 and ANSI B30. 2-1976 now in effect and are similar.

The primary difference between the EOCI f61 and CMAA f70 specifications are changes in the design of bridge girders. These changes reflected in the CMAA $ 70 specification allow the use of higher allowable stresses for the better grade materials available today and also provide new design formulas. These changes are a result of advancements in the state of the art of girder structural design, allowing the use of lighter, more efficient structures and do not increase the conservativeness of the design from. the older EOCI 061 specification. "

b. FRC Evaluation Cranes at Turkey Point satisfy< to a considerable. extent, the criteria of Guideline 7, since the cranes were procured to accepted industrial standards at the time of manufacture. However, FPL did not specificially address the more restrictive design requirements imposed by CMAA-70, which could affect the crane's ability to. safely handle a heavy load.

FRC has compared the recommendations of CMAA-70 with those of EOCI-61 and has identified several areas where revisions incorporated into CMAA-70 may affect crane safety and should therefore be evaluated to determine if the intent of NUREG-0612 is met.

- l. Im act allowance. CMAA-70, Article 3.3.2.1.,1.3 requires that crane design calculations include an impact allowance of 0.5% of the load per foot per minute of hoisting speed but not less than 15%. EOCI-61 specifies only a minimum allowance of 15%. Consequently, for cranes with hoist speeds in excess of 30 feet per minute, 'it is possible that the impact allowance applied under 'EOCI-61 will be less, than that required by CMAA-70. This variation is not expected to be of consequence for the overhead cranes subject to this review since these cranes, in general, operate with hoist speeds below 30 feet per minute, most commonly in the range of 3 to 10 feet per minute.

TERM5257<<123/124

2. Torsional forces. CHAA-70, Article 3. 3. 2.1. 3 requires that twisting moments due to overhanging loads and lateral forces acting eccentric to the horizontal neutral .axis of a girder be calculated on the basis of the distance between the center of gravity of the load, or force center line, and the girder shear center measured normal to the force vector. EOCI-61 states that such moments are to be calculated with reference to girder center of gravity.

For girder sections symmetrical about each principal central axis ,(e.g. f box section or I-beam girders commonly used in cranes subject to this review), the,

'hear center coincides with the centroid of the girder section and there is no difference between the two requirements. Such is"not the case for nonsymmet-rical girder sections (e.g., channels).

3. Lon itudinal stiffeners. CMAA-70, Article 3.3'.3.1 specifies (1) the maximum allowable web depth/thickness (h/t) ratio for box girders using longitudinal stiffeners and'2) requirements concerning the location and minimum moment of inerti:a for such stiffeners. EOCI-61. allows the use of longitudinal stiffeners but provides no similar guidance. Requirements of CMAA-70 represent a codification of girder design practice, and they are expected to .be equivalent to design standards employed in cranes built to EOCI-61 specifications.
4. Allowable com ressive stress. CMAA-70< Article 3. 3. 3. 1. 3 identifies allowable compress'ive stresses to be approxiraately 50% of yield strength of the recommended structural material {A-36) for girders, where the ratio of the di'stance between web plates to the thickness of 'the top cover plate {b/c ratio) is less than or equal to 38. Allowable compressive stresses decrease linearly. for b/c ratios in excess of 38. EOCI-61 provides a similar method for calculating allowable compressive stresses except that the allowable-stress decreases from approximately 50% of yield only after the b/c ratio exceeds 41. Consequently, structural members with b/c ratios in the general range of 38 to 52 designed under EOCI-Gl will allow a slightly higher compressive stress than those designed under CMAA-70. This variation is not expected to be of consequence for cranes subject to this review since b/c I

ratios of structural members are expected to be less than 38,

5. Fati ue considerations. CMAA-70, Article 3. 3. 3.1.3 provides substantial guidance with respect to fatigue failure by indicating allowable stress ranges for various structural members in joints under repeated loads.

EOCI-61 does not address fatigue failure. The requirements of CMAA-70 are not expected to be of consequence for cranes subject to this review since the cranes are not generally subjected to frequent loads at or near design conditions (CMAA-70 provides allowable stress ranges for loading cycles in excess of 20,000) ana are not generally subjected'o stress reversal (CMAA-70 allowable- stress range is reduced to below the basic allowable stress for only a limited number of joint configurations).

.6. Hoist ro e re uirements. CMAA-70,:Article 4. 2.1 requires that the capacity load plus the bottom block divided by the number of parts of rope not exceed 208 of, the published rope breaking strength. EOCI-61 requires that the rated capacity load divided by the number of parts of rope not exceed 208 of the published rope breaking strength. The effect on crane safety margins of this variation depends on the .ratio of'he weights of the load block and the rated load.

designed to withstand combined crushing and'ending loads. EOCI-61 requires only that the drum be designed to withstand maximum load'ending and crushing loads with no stipulation that these loads be combined. This variation is not expected to be of consequence since the requirements of CMAA-70 represent the codi'fication of good engineering practice which should have been incorpo-rated'in cranes built to EOCI-61 specifications although a specific require-ment was not contained in EOCI-61..

groove depth and pitch. EOCI-61 provides no similar guidance. The recommen-dations in CMAA-70 constitute a codification of good engineering practice with regard to reeving stability and reduction of rope wear and are not expected to differ substantially from practices employed in the design of cranes subject to 'this review and built to EOCI-61 specifications.

'and provides .a method for determining allowable horsepower. EOCI-61 provides no similar guidance. The recommendations in CMAA-70 constitute a codification of good engineering practice for gear design and are not expected to differ substantially from the practices employed in the design of cranes subject to this review and built to EOCI-61 specifications.

10. Brid e brake desi n. CMAA-70, Article 4.7.2. 2 requires that bridge brakes, for cranes with cab control and the cab on the trolley, be rated at least 758 of bridge motor torque. EOCI-61 requires a brake rating of 50% of bridge motor torque for similar configurations. A cab-on-trolley control arrangement is not expected for cranes subject to this review.

ll. Hoist brake desi n. CMAA-70, Article 4.7.4. 2 requires that hoist holding brakes, when used with a method of control braking other than mechanical, have torque ratings no less than 125% of the hoist motor torque.

EOCI-61 requires a hoist holding brake torque rating of no less than 1008 of the. hoist motor torque without regard to the type of control brake employed.

This variation is not expected to be of consequence for cranes subject to this review since mechanical load brakes were typically specified for cranes procured when EOCI-61 was th'e standard. The addition of a holding brake safety margin in conjunction with electric control braking is a codificati'on 'f good engineering practice. Some manufacturers provide holding brakes rated at up to 150% of hoist motor torque when used with electrical control braking systems.

12. Bum ers and sto s. CMAA-70,'rticle 4. 12 provides substantial guidance for the design and installation of bridge and trolley bumpers and stops for cranes which operate near the ends of bridge and trolley travel. No similar guidance is provided in EOCI-61. This variation is not expected to be of significance for cranes subject to this review since these cranes are not expected to be operated under load at substantial bridge or trolley speed near the end of travel. Further, the guidance of CMAA-70 constitutes the codifi-cation of good engineering practice and will be expected to be satisfied by equivalent requirements for cranes procured according to EOCI-61.

TER~5257-123/124

13. Static control s stems. CMAA-70, Article 5. 4.6 provides substantial guidance for the use of static control systems. EOCI-61 provides guidance for magnetic control systems only. This variation is not expected to be of consequence because magnetic control systems were generally employed in cranes designed when EOCI-61 was in effect,and the static control requirements identified in CMAA-70 constitute a codification of the same good engineering practice that would have been used in the design of static control systems in cranes 'built to EOCI-61 specifications.
14. Restart rotection. CMAA-70, Article 5.6.2 requires that cranes, not equipped with spring return controllers or momentary contact push buttons be provided with a device that will disconnect all motors upon power failure and.

will not permit any motor to be restarted until the controller handle is brought to the OFF position No similar guidance is provided in EOCI-61.

This variation is not expected to. be of consequence for cranes subject .to this review since they are generally designed with spring-return controllers or momentary-contact push buttons.

c. FRC Conclusion Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 comply with Guideline 7, to a substantial degree, on the basis of compliance with EOCI-61 criteria. However, insuffi-cient information has been made available to verify that the following CMAA-. 70 requirements have been satisfied for cranes subject to this review. The Licensee should make this information available or provide suitable justification for concluding that the requirements of CMAA-70 have been satisfied by equivalent means.
1. Hoist lifting speeds do not exceed 30 feet per minute.
2. Nonsymmetrical girder sections were not used in crane construction.
3. Any longitudinal stiffeners in use conform to the requirements of CMAA-70, and allowable h/t ratios in box girders using these stiffeners do not exceed ratios specified in CMAA-70.,

4.. Girders with b/c ratios in excess of 38 were not used.

5. Fatigue failure was considered in crane design and the number of design loading cycles at or near rated load is less than 20,000 cycles.

11. Mechanical load brakes or hoist holding brakes with torque ratings of approximately 1258 of the hoist motor torque were used.
12. Crane operation under load near the end of bridge or trolley travel is not allowed or is compensated for by bumpers and stops which satisfy the intent of CMAA-70.
13. Any static control systems in'use conform to the requirements of CMAA 70
14. Controllers in use are the spring-return or momentary~ontact pushbutton type or are equipped with a device which disconnects all motors on power failure and will not permit restart until the controller handle is brought, to the OFF position.

TER-C5257-123/124 3 CONCLUDING

SUMMARY

This summary is provided to consolidate the conclusions and recommenda- "

tions of Section 2 and to document FRC's overall evaluation of the handling of heavy loads at Turkey Point Units 3 and 4. It is divided into two sections dealing with general provisions for load handling at nuclear power plants (NUREG-0612, Article S.l.l) and the staff recommendations for interim protection, pending complete implementation of the guidelines, of NUREG-0612 (NUREG-0612, Article 5.3). In each case, recommendations for additional Licensee action, and additional NRC staff action where appropriate, are.

provided.

3 1 'GENERAL PROVISIONS FOR IDAD HANDLING The NRC staff has established .seven guidelines concerning provisions for handling heavy loads in the area of the reactor vessel, near stored spent fuel, or in other areas where an accidental load drop could damage safe shutdown systems. Compliance with these guidelines is necessary to ensure that load-handling system design, administrative controls, and operator training and qualification are such that the possibility of a load drop is very small for the critical functions performed by cranes at nuclear power plants. These guidelines are partially satisfied at Turkey Point Units 3 and

4. This conclusion is presented in tabular form as Table 3. 1". Specific recommendations for achieving full compliance with these guidelines are provided as follows:

Guideline Recommendation 1 a. Define safe load paths where practical. 'The use of exclusion areas should be limited to miscellaneous areas and lifts where the designation of individual load paths is impractical.

b. Verify that heavy loads and their respective load paths have been identified in the plant procedure for controlling heavy loads.
c. Verify that the selection of safe: load paths c'onsiders the location of structural members and beams.

SUMMARY

NRC's general guidelines and interim protection measures of NUREG-0612 have not been fully complied with at Florida Power and Light Company's Turkey Point Units 3 and 4. Crane inspection, testing, and maintenance programs currently comply with, these criteria, and the Licensee's response indicates that programs for training, qualification, and conduct of crane operators very nearly comply with NUREG-0612 guidelines.

On the other hand, considerable analysis of lifting devices (both specially designed and non-specially designed) and cranes is still required by the Licensee to determine whether these items satisfy the requirements of standards identified in NUREG-0612. In addition, Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 safe load paths require modification to meet the intent of Guideline l.

Licensee action .is required on the remaining general guidelines and,interim measures in order for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 to comply with NUREG-0612.
