Robinson Vice President Harris Nuclear Plant SERIAL: HNP-96-064 United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTENTION: Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555 SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEARPOWER PLANT DOCKET NO. 50-400/LICENSE NO. NPF-63 TECHNICALSPECIFICATION BASES CHANGE - CONTAINMENTANALYSIS Gentlemen:
In accordance with 10 CFR 50.36(a), the Harris Nuclear Plant is proposing to implement a change to the Bases for Technical Specifications (TS) 3/4.6.1.4 and 3/4.6.1.6.
In response to NRC Information Notice 87-65, "Plant Operation Beyond Analyzed Conditions,"
an analysis was performed to evaluate the temperature distribution inside containment.
That analysis concluded that the containment temperature is normally stratified, and under worst case conditions, would result in an average temperature of 135'F ifthoroughly mixed. Containment temperature and pressure for the limitingMSLB and LOCA scenarios were recalculated using 135'F as the pre-accident temperature.
120'F had been used as the pre-accident temperature in previous analyses.
The revised analyses show that the peak temperature and pressure values remain within the accident acceptance criteria. The peak containment pressure following the most limitingLOCA scenario is essentially unchanged and remains below the peak accident pressure, Pa, as stated in TS 3.6.1.2 and the corresponding Bases. Therefore, offsite dose projections are not affected and there willbe no increase in the consequences ofthis scenario.
However, the change in calculated peak pressure for the MSLB event willrequire revision of the Bases for Internal Pressure (TS 3.6.1.4) and Containment Structural Integrity (TS 3.6.1.6).
Specifically, the peak pressure expected from a postulated MSLB event is now 41.2 psig, which is an increase above the current Bases peak values of40.9 psig (TS 3.6.1.4) and 41 psig (TS 3.6.1.6)
~ However, the revised peak pressure of41.2 psig remains below the maximum internal design pressure of45 psig, as stated in TS 5.2.2, Design Pressure and Temperature.
