4.5 Basis CONTAINMEN~STS (continued)

The containment is designed for an accident pressure of 55 psig. 111 While the reactor is operating, the internal environment of the containment will be air at approximately atmospheric pressure and a temperature of about 104°F. With these initial conditions, following a LOCA, the temperature of the steam-air mixture at the peak accident pressure of 55 psig is 283°F.

Prior to initial operation, the containment was strength-tested at 63 psig and then leak rate tested. The design objective of this preoperational leak rate test was established as 0.1% by weight per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> at 55 psig. This leakage rate is consistent with the construction of the containment, 121 which is equipped with independent leak-testable penetrations and contains.channels over all unaccessible containment liner welds, which were independently leak-tested during construction.

Accident analyses have been performed on the basis of a leakage rate of 0.1% by weight per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. With this leakage rate and with a reactor power level of 2530 MWt, the potential public exposure would be below 10 CFR 100 guideline values in the event of the Maximum Hypothetical Accident. 131 .

The performance of a periodic integrated leak rate test during plant life provides a current assessment of potential leakage from the containment in case of an accident that would pressurize the interior of the containment.

In order to provide a realistic appraisal of the integrity of the containment under accident conditions, this periodic leak rate test is to be performed without preliminary leak detection surveys or leak repairs and containment isolation valves are to be closed in the normal manner.

This normal manner is a coincident two~of-four high radiation or two-of-four high containment pressure signals which wil.l close all containment isolation valves not required for engineered safety features except the component cooling lines' valves which are closed by CHP only. The control system is designed on a two-channel (right and left) concept with redundancy and physical seoaration. Each chann~l is capable of initiating containment isolation. 141 The Type A test requirements including pretest test methods, test pressure, acceptance criteria, and reporting requirements are in accordance with the Containment Leak Rate Testing Program.

The frequency of the periodic integrated leak rate test is keyed to the refueling schedule for the reactor because these tests can best be performed during refueling shutdowns. The specified frequency is based on three major

  • considerations. First is the low probability of leaks in the liner because
  • of (a) the test of the leak tightness of the welds during erection; (b) conformance . of the complete containment to a low leak rate at 55 psi g during preoperational testing which in consistent with 0.1% leakage at design basis accident (OBA) conditions: and (c) absence of any significant stresses in the liner during reactor operation.

4.5 CONTAINMENT TESTS Basis (continued)

Second is the more frequent testing, at the full accident pressure, of those portions of the containment envelope that are most likely to develop leaks during reactor operation (penetrations and isolation valves) and the low value (0.60L of the total leakage that is specified as acceptable from 8

)

penetrations and isolation valves. Third is the Containment Structural Integrity Surveillance Program which provides assurance that an important part, of the structural integrity of the containment is maintained.

The basis for specification of a total leakage rate of 0.60 La from penetrations and isolation valves is specified to provide assurance that the integrated leak rate would remain within the specified limits during the intervals between integrated leak rate tests. This value allows for possible deterioration in the intervals between tests.

The basis for specification of an airlock door seal leakage rate of 0.023 La is to provide assurance that the failure of a single airlock door will not result in the total containment leakage exceeding 0.6 La. The seven (7) day LCO specified for exceeding the airlock door leakage limit is acceptable since it requires that the total containment leakage limit is not exceeded.

6.0 6.5.13 ADMINISTRA~ CONTROLS Reserved 6.5.14 Containment Leak Rate Testing Program Programs shall be established to implement the leak rate testing of the containment as required by 10 CFR 50.54(0) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, Option 8, as modified by approved exemptions. The Type A test program shall meet the requirements ~f 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, Option B and shall be in accordance with the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.163, "Performance-Based Containment Leakage-Test Program, dated September 1995." The Type Band Type C test program shall meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, Option A, as modified by the exemption from certain requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix J which were granted in an NRC letter to Consumers Power Company dated December 6, 1989.

The containment is designed for an accident pressure, Pa, of 55 psig; the maximum allowable containment leak rate, La, at Pa, shall be 0.1% of containment air weight per day.

Leak rate acceptance criteria are:

a. Containment leak rate acceptance criteria is s 1.0 La. During the first plant startup following testing in accordance with this program, the leak rate acceptance criteria are s 0.60 La for the Type B and Type C tests and s 0.75 La for Type A tests;
b. Air lock testing acceptance criteria are:
1) Overall air lock leak rate is s 0.60 La when tested at ~ Pa;
2) For each door, leak rate is s 0.023 La when pressurized to

~ 10 psig.

The Surveillance interval extensions of LCO 4.0.2.a and 4.0.2.b are not applicable to the Containment Leak Rate Testing Program requirements.

The provisions of LCO 4.0.3 are applicable to the Containment Leak Rate Testing Program requirements. *
