UNNERSITY OF MISSOURI- COLUMBIA RESEARCH REACTOR REACTOR OPERATIONS ANNUAL REPORT January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018 INTRODUCTION The University of Miss01,rri Research Reactor (MURR) is a multi-disciplinary research and education facility providing a broad range of analytical, materials science, and irradiation services to the research community and the commercial sector. Scientific programs include research in archaeometry, epidemiology, health physics, human and animal nutrition, nuclear medicine, radiation effects, radioisotope studies, radiotherapy, and nuclear engineering; and research techniqu~s including neutron activation analysis, neutron and gamma-ray scattering, and neutron interferometry. The.heart of this facility is a pressurized, reflected, open pool-type, light water moderated and cooled, heterogeneous reactor designed for operation at a maximum steady-state power level of 10 Megawatts thermal - the highest-powered university-operated research reactor in the United States.

The Reactor Operations Annual Report presents a summary of reactor operating experience for calendar year 2018.

Included within this report are changes to MURR reactor operations and health physics procedures, revisions to the Safety Analysis Report (SAR), facility modifications, new tests and experiments, reactor physics activities, and environmental and health physics data.

This report is being *submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to meet the administrative requirements of MURR Technical Specification 6.6.e.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The success of MURR and its scientific programs is due to the dedication and hard. work of many individuals and organizations. Included within this group are: the University of Missouri admjnistration; the governing officials of the State of Missouri; the Missouri State Highway Patrol; the City of Columbia Police* Department; the Missouri University Police Department (MUPD); the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI); our regulators; those who have provided funding, including the Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA); Argonne National Laboratory (ANL); Idaho National Laboratory (INL); Sandia National Laboratories (SNL); the researchers; the students; the Columbia Fire Department (CFD); the Campus Facilities organization; members of the National Organization of Test, Research and Training Reactors (TRTR); and many others who have made, and will continue to make, key contributions to our overall success. To these individuals and~rganizations, the staff of MURR wishes to extend its fondest appreciation.

Some of the major facility projects that were supported by Reactor Operations during this past calendar year included (1) replacement of the primary coolant heat exchanger HX503A plates; (2) chemical cleaning of primary coolant heat exchanger HX503B and pool coolant heat exchanger HX521 plates; (3) replacement of 12 paper and pen chart recorders with paperless chart recorders on all process instrumentation, nuclear instrumentation, and stack monitor channels; (4) replacement of the secondary coolant chemical control system; (5) replacement of the personnel entry (airlock) inner and outer door sealing gaskets; (6) replacement of the rod position indication system; (7) installation of a new control rod drive mechanism; (8) refurbishment of anti-siphon system isolation valves V543A and V543B; (9) replacement of the reactor pressure vessel cover backrings; (10) installation of a reactor containment building

differential pressure transmitter, remote indication, and alarm; and (11) implementation of facility security enhancements focusing on the requirements of 10 CFR 37.

The facility continues to actively collaborate with the Reduced Enrichment for Research and Test Reactors (RERTR)

Program and four other U.S. high-performance research and test reactor facilities that use highly enriched uranium (HEU) fuel to find a suitable low-enriched uranium (LEU) fuel replacement. Although each one of the five high-performance reactors is responsible for its own feasibility and safety studies, regulatory interactions, fuel procurement and conversion, there are common interests and activities among all five reactors that will benefit from a coordinated, working-group effort. This past year, work focused on HEU-to-LEU transition core planning and the effects of fissile targets on the proposed LEU core for the purpose of producing molybedum-99.

Reactor Operations management also wishes to commend the three individuals who received their Reactor Operator certifications from the NRC. These individuals participated in a rigorous training program of classroom seminars, self-study, and on-the-job training. The results of this training are confident, well-versed, decisive individuals capable of performing the duties of a licensed operator during normal and abnormal situations.

I I JANUARY 2018 I Tue reactor operated continuously in January with the following exceptions: five shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling, one shutdown for physics measurements, and one unscheduled/unplanned power I reduction.

I On January 5, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, a manual reactor scram was initiated as part of an unplanned power reduction to perform compliance procedure CP-17, "Emergency Power Generator Load I Test," after a review of the December 2017 Compliance Procedure Status Report revealed that the 7.5-month "due no later than date" for performance of CP-17 was January 5, 2018. All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor I emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram," were completed. CP-17 was then completed satisfactorily.

I Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

  • I-1 I

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing the reactor pool upper bridge radiation monitor upscale switch; replacing the pedestrian entry (airlock) inner door 277 drive sprocket; replacing the regulating blade drive mechanism cable; replacing the pool coolant demineralizer system inlet and outlet filters; loading new de-ionizing bed 'K' and placing it on pool coolant system service; and performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-200, "Measurement of Differential Worth of a Shim Control Blade, RTP-1 l(D)."

FEBRUARY 2018 The reactor operated continuously in February with the following exceptions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling. There were no unscheduled/unplanned power reductions this month.

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing a relay in the drain collection tank control circuit; replacing primary coolant heat exchanger HX503A plates; and replacing the reactor containment building differential pressure gauge.

MARCH2018 The reactor operated continuously in March with the following exceptions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling and two unscheduled/unplanned power reductions.

On March 1, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, a 'Channel 4, 5 or 6 HI Power Rod Run-In' was automatically initiated from power range monitor nuclear instrumentation (NI) channel no. 6 (PRM-6).

There was no indication of an elevated power level on any NI channel, including PRM-6. PRM-6 rod run-in (RRI) trip unit was replaced, and the drawer operations were tested satisfactorily with completion of compliance procedure CP-34, "Nuclear Instrumentation Power Range Monitor - Channel 6," and the applicable portions of compliance procedure CP-9, "Nuclear Instrumentation Scram and Rod Run-In." Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Reactor Manager, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

On March 4, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, a Reactor Operator Trainee, while conducting a routine facility patrol, inadvertently switched the emergency power generator (EPG) out of automatic control for approximately 10 to 15 seconds before returning the EPG back to automatic control. The reactor was not shut down. Permission to continue operating the reactor was obtained from the Interim Reactor Facility Director.

Inoperability of the emergency electrical power system during reactor operation resulted in a deviation from Technical Specification (TS) 3.6.a, and Licensee Event Report No. 18-01 was submitted to the NRC on March 15, 2018.

On March 19, during a normal reactor startup with the reactor subcritical and shim control blade height at 10 inches, a manual reactor scram was initiated when a control room operator observed anti-siphon system pressure decreasing approximately 2-3 psig every five minutes. All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram," were completed. Attempts were made to manually seat anti-siphon system isolation valves V543A and V543B in the closed position but were unsuccessful. The primary coolant system was shut down and restarted, and control room operators observed anti-siphon'system pressure for 10 minutes to verify the pressure was holding. Permission to perform a normal reactor startup was obtained from the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing the wide range monitor NI drawer cable; performing a zero and span on the wide range monitor NI channel; completing Modification Record 13-02, Addendum 1, 1-2 I

"Secondary Coolant System Chemistry Control;" and performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-202, "Measurement of Reactivity Worth of Movable Samples, RTP-6."

  • APRIL2018 The reactor operated continuously in April with the following exceptions: five shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling. An NRC inspector conducted a routine scheduled inspection of the Radiation Protection and Shipping Programs.

There were no unscheduled/unplanned power reductions this month. However, an unplanned extended maintenance period occurred from April 30 to May 2, 2018. The plates on primary coolant heat exchanger HX503B were replaced on April 30. Later on April 30, it was discovered that one or more replacement plates had leaked. The decision was made to coarsely clean the original plates and put them back into the heat exchanger. The reactor was returned to 10 MW operation on May 2, 2018.

Major maintenance items for the month "included: replacing the pedestrian entry (airlock) outer door 276 sealing gasket; replacing primary coolant circulation pump P50 lA; repairing a leak in pool coolant hold-up tank T504; loading new de~ionizing bed 'L' and placing it on pool coolant system service; and mechanically cleaning the plates in primary coolant heat exchanger HX503B.

MAY2018 The reactor opemted continuously in May with the following exceptions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling and 10 unscheduled/unplanned power reductions.

From May 21 through May 27, six different RRis were automatically initiated with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode. For the first five RRI occurrences, no RRI annunciation accompanied the RRI, and no plant condition occurred that would have caused a RRI. On the sixth occurrence, a 'Channel 4, 5 or 6 HI Power Rod Run-In' annunciation was automatically initiated from PRM-6. There was no indication of an elevated power level on any other NI channel. On May 27, investigation concluded that all of the RRis probably occurred due to increased noise from the PRM-6 detector and/or detector cable. The PRM-6 detector and associated cabling were replaced.

Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Acting Reactor Manager, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

On May 25, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, an automatic reactor scram was initiated due to a momentary loss of normal electrical power. All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor emergency procedure REP-11, "Momentary Loss of Normal Electrical Power," were completed. The momentary electrical power loss was confirmed by calling the University of Missouri power plant and the issue was verified to be a fault at the power plant. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Acting Reactor Manager, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

On May 27, with the reactor operating at 5 MW in the manual control mode during a normal reactor startup, an automatic reactor scram was initiated while paused to physically adjust the PRM-6 detector drywell. The scram was accompanied by a 'Channel 4, 5 & 6 Hi Power Scram' annunciation. All immediate and subsequent actions ofreactor emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram," were completed. The power transient was verified on the PRM-6 chart recorder and with no spike noted on PRM-4 or -5. Further investigation revealed that the bolt that holds down the U-clamp bracket on the PRM-6 drywell was loose, which allowed the drywell to move more than intended. The 1-3

bracket was tightened, and the drywell was successfully adjusted during the following startup. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Acting Reactor Manager, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

On May 29, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, an automatic RRI was initiated due to control rod 'D' disconnecting from its drive mechanism electromagnet. The RRI was accompanied by a 'Rod Not In Contact With Magnet Rod Run-In' annunciation. While loading a silicon sample back into graphite reflector Y6 irradiation position, the sample holder wire caught the north sample rotator causing the holder to swing into control blade 'D' offset mechanism. This caused the control rod to disconnect from the control rod drive mechanism electromagnet. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

On May 30, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, a manual reactor scram was initiated due to inoperability of control blades 'A,' 'B,' and 'C.' All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram," were completed. Immediately prior, while conducting the control blade operability TS 4.2.a surveillance, it was discovered that shim control blades 'A,' 'B,' and 'C' would not shim in the inward direction (outward direction was operable) when control rod operate switch 1S4 was manipulated.

Troubleshooting determined a failure of control rod operate switch 1S4, and this component was replaced and retested satisfactorily. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Interim Reactor Facility Director, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation. lnoperability of the control blades during reactor operation resulted in a deviation from TS 3.2.a, and Licensee Event Report No. 18-02 was submitted to the NRC on June 11, 2018.

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing the pool coolant demineralizer system irilet filters; completing the biennial change-out of control blade 'B' offset mechanism; performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-200, "Measurement of Differential Worth of a Shim Control Blade, RTP-ll(D);" replacing the RR.I system non-coincidence logic unit and trip actuator amplifier; replacing control rod selector switch 1S3; replacing control rod operate switch 1S4; replacing PRM-6 RR.I dual trip unit; and completing compliance procedure CP-26, "Containment Building Compliance Test.

I JUNE 2018 The reactor operated continuously in June with the following exceptions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling, two shutdowns for physics measurements, and two shutdowns for license examinations. There were no unscheduled/unplanned power reductions this month. An NRC license examiner administered a reactor operator licensing examination. Dr. J. David Robertson was appointed the Reactor Facility Director on June 15.

Major maintenance items for the month included: performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-201, "Measurement of Reactivity Worth of Flux Trap Loadings or Individual Samples, RTP-17(B);" and performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-200, "Measurement of Differential Worth ofa Shim Control Blade, RTP-ll(D)."

JULY2018 The reactor operated continuously in July with the following exceptions: five shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling and two shutdowns for physics measurements. There were no unscheduled/unplanned power reductions this month.

I-4

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing the pool coolant demineralizer system inlet filters; replacing the primary and pool coolant demineralizer flow recorder; conducting chemical cleanings of primary coolant heat exchanger HX503B and pool coolant heat exchanger HX521; loading new de-ionizing bed 'G' and placing it on pool coolant system service; replacing truck entry door 101 clutch pins; installing .a desiccant air dryer in the reactor containment building supply and exhaust plenum backup doors compressed air supply line; replacing the pedestrian entry (airlock) outer door 276 seal air supply regulator and pressure relief valve; performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-202, "Measurement of Reactivity Worth of Movable Samples, RTP-6;" and performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-201, "Measurement of Reactivity Worth of Flux Trap Loadings ~r Individual Samples, RTP-17(B)."

AUGUST2018 The reactor operated continuously in August with the following exceptions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling and two shutdowns for physics measurements. There were no unscheduled/unplanned power reductions this month.

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing the pedestrian entry (airlock) inner door 277 sealing gasket; replacing the pressure vessel cover east backring; replacing the primary coolant reactor inlet and outlet temperature recorder; replacing the pool coolant demineralizer system inlet filters; completing Modification Record 96-02, Addendum 2, "Installation of Power Motion Inc. Rod Position Indication System;" performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-200, "Measurement of Differential Worth of a Shim Control Blade, RTP-ll(D);" and performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-201, "Measurement of Reactivity Worth of Flux Trap Loadings or Individual Samples, RTP-17(B)."

SEPTEMBER 2018 The reactor operated continuously in September with the following exceptions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling, two shutdowns for physics measurements, and two unscheduled/unplanned power reductions.

On September 5, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, an automatic containment isolation was initiated, which automatically shut down the reactor. All immediate and subsequent actions of emergency procedure EP-R0-12, "Reactor Isolation," were completed. Troubleshooting revealed that the radiation signal from containment building exhaust plenum no. 1 area radiation monitor decreased to a level that caused the electronic circuit to sense a failure on low level. The installed sources in both exhaust plenums nos. 1 and 2 had decayed significantly over several years. Replacement sources were installed. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from* the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

On September 14, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, a manual reactor scram was initiated when the console operator discovered that the backup doors to the containment building ventilation supply and exhaust duct doors 504 and 505 closed. All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram/' were completed. Further investigation revealed that the compressed air supply line to the backup door air cylinders was damaged when an operator became entangled in an electrical extension cord that was attached to the air line. The air line was repaired, and operation of the backup doors was verified satisfactory by performing compliance procedure CP-20, "Backup Doors." Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

1-5

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing the primary coolant system flow 'A' recorder; replacing the water pump on the diesel engine of the EPG; and performing two reactivity worth measurements in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-201, "Measurement of Reactivity Worth of Flux Trap Loadings or Individual Samples, RTP-17(B)."

OCTOBER 2018 The reactor operated continuously in October with the following exceptions: five shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling, one shutdown for physics measurement, and one unscheduled/unplanned power reduction. An NRC inspector conducted a routine scheduled inspection of Reactor Operations and Emergency Preparedness.

On October 13, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, a manual reactor scram was initiated as part of an unplanned shutdown with Reactor Manager concurrence. All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram," were completed. Anti-siphon system isolation valves V543A and V543B were leaking causing air to collect within the reactor loop vent system tank. Solenoid-operated vent valve V552A would periodically open to vent the air out of the tank, which released small amounts of activated air to the facility ventilation exhaust stack. After the reactor and primary coolant system were shut down, the primary coolant system was restarted and secured several times until anti-siphon system isolation valves V543A and V543B were seated with minimal leakage noted. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

Major maintenance items for the month included: completing Modification Record 18-02, "Fabrication of a New Control Rod Drive Mechanism;" replacing control rod 'B' drive mechanism; replacing the pool coolant heat exchanger inlet and outlet temperature recorder; replacing the pool coolant demineralizer system inlet filters; loading new de-ionizing bed 'K' and placing it on pool coolant system service; completing the biennial change-out of control blade

'D' offset mechanism; performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-200, "Measurement of Differential Worth of a Shim Control Blade, RTP-11(0);" and performing a reactivity worth measurement in accordance with reactor procedure RP-R0-201, "Measurement of Reactivity Worth of Flux Trap Loadings or Individual Samples, RTP-17(B)."

NOVEMBER 2018 The reactor operated continuously in November with the following exceptions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and/or refueling and two unscheduled/unplanned power reductions. *1 On November 9, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, an automatic reactor scram was initiated due to a loss of normal electrical power to the reactor containment and laboratory buildings. All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram," were completed. Investigation revealed the supply breaker on a substation 'B' was tripped. The cause of the breaker trip was a malfunction inside a breaker located in motor control center no. 3. The failed breaker was disconnected, and power to the reactor I containment and laboratory buildings was restored. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

On November 20, with the reactor operating at 10 MW in the automatic control mode, a manual reactor scram was I

initiated as part of an unplanned power reduction due to abnormal noise coming from primary coolant circulation I pump P501A breaker located in motor control center no. 5. All immediate and subsequent actions of reactor I

1-6 I I

emergency procedure REP-2, "Reactor Scram," were completed. When the primary coolant circulation pump was started, the breaker contact block most likely did not seat properly when the coil activated, which caused a significant buzzing noise. After the reactor was shut down, the primary coolant system was restarted allowing the primary coolant circulation pump P501A breaker contact block to seat properly. Permission to restart the reactor was obtained from the Lead Senior Reactor Operator, and the reactor was subsequently returned to 10 MW operation.

Major maintenance items for the month included: completing Modification Record 18-01, "Installation of Containment Differential Pressure Transmitter, Remote Indication, and Alarm;" transferring de-ionizing bed 'K' from primary coolant system service to pool coolant system service; loading new de-ionizing bed 'Y' and placing it on primary coolant system service; replacing the intermediate range monitor level recorder; replacing the secondary coolant system recorder; replacing the source range monitor level recorder; replacing the wide range level monitor recorder; replacing the reactor pressure vessel cover backrings; refurbishing anti-siphon system isolation valves V543A and V543B; replacing the primary coolant system flow 'B' recorder; and replacing the pool coolant demineralizer system inlet filters.

DECEMBER 2018 The reactor operated continuously in December with the following exceptions: five shutdowns for scheduled maintenap.ce and/or_refueling and one shutdown for physics measurement. There were no unscheduled/unplanned power reductions this month. An NRC license examiner administered a reactor operator and a senior reactor operator licensing examinations.

Major maintenance items for the month included: replacing the pool coolant system flow recorder; replacing both off-gas stack monitor recorders; refurbishing both primary coolant circulation pump bypass valves V538A and V538B; replacing the power range monitor level recorder; replacing the pool coolant demineralizer system inlet filters; completing Modification Record 99-01, Addendum 1, "Replace Process Instrumentation Recorders - 2018;"

SECTION ID REVISIONS TO THE SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018 On August 31, 2006, MURR submitted a request to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to renew Amended Facility Operating License No. R-103 for another twenty years of operation, at which time MURR also provided its proposed Safety Analysis Report (SAR). On January 4, 2017, the NRC issued Renewed Facility Operating License No. R-103.

During 2017 and 2018, thousands of person-hours were spent by MURR staff to update the August 31, 2006, SAR with all of the facility changes and modifications that had occurred between 2006 and 2017, and with applicable information from the hundreds of MURR responses to NRC Requests for Additional Information during the relicensing process. MURR expects to complete the SAR revisions and updates during the first half of 2019.

During calendar year 2018, modifications or changes to the facility occurred that required the following revisions to the ~AR, as submitted to the NRC in 2006 for relicensing. The following changes have been reviewed, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59, by licensed staff and members of the Reactor Safety Subcommittee; determined not to involve a change to the MURR Technical Specifications; and approved by the Reactor Manager.

Delete Section 7.5.6 (pages 7-35 to 7-36)

Revise, in its entirety, to read:

"Control rod position indication is provided by a system of microcomputer controlled instruments located in the reactor control room. The Rod Position Indication (RPI) system is designed to provide the following:

  • Continuous precision rod position indication; and
  • Security against tampering or inadvertent alteration by use of tiered password control.

The RPI system consists of the following major components: five encoder transducers, one mounted on each control rod drive mechanism; a chassis with installed hardware; and a remote Operator Display Assembly (ODA).

Signals from the encoders are converted to relative control rod positions by the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) in the RPI chassis. The chassis, mounted in the instrument panel, contains an AC to DC power supply, circuit breaker, a network switch for module communication, a Human Machine Interface (HMI), and a PLC consisting of the following components: a fieldbus logic controller, five Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) encoder input modules, one digital input module, one digital output module, and an end module. All inputs for the system are through either the HMI on the front panel of the chassis, or the HMI serving as the ODA.

The ODA is a second HMI identical in every way to the front panel of the chassis. The ODA is connected to the chassis through a communication cable and a power cable. The power for the ODA is from the power supply in the main rack mounted chassis.

The RPI system consists of three main screens. Along the bottom of each screen are three menu navigation buttons, and they are as follows:

1. Alarms: The alarms screen shows a log of all faults and alarm situations. This log requires a user password to clear the alarm log.
2. Auto Run: The default screen is the "AUTO RUN" screen which displays the .five control rod positions. It will also display calculated control rod travel speed when enabled.
3. Setup: The setup. screen requires a user login to access. A User login will allow the zero position of the control rods to be set. The remainder of the settings require an Admin login.

The system defaults to the "Auto Run" screen after a timeout of five minutes in the setup menu."

.- SECTIONN PLANT AND SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS

  • January 1, 2018-through December 31, 2018 For each facility modification described below, MURR has on file the safety screen or evaluation, as well as the documentation ofreview, performed pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59.

J MODIFICATION RECORD 13-02, ADDENDUM 1 J Secondary Coolant System Chemistry Control This Modification Record documents changes to the secondary coolant system chemistry control program. MURR made the decision to switch to a different chemical. vendor (Nalco) and adopted their chemical control, storage, and delivery systems. This included modifications to the chemical injection locations within the secondary coolant system.

The transition to Nalco included the adoption of 3D TRASAR technology. This included the replacement of two Honeywell controllers with a 3D TRASAR controller, as well as the Nalco series of chemicals and chemical delivery components. The 3D TRASAR controller monitors the water parameters and Nalco chemical product concentrations in a sample stream of the secondary c~)Olant. The controller determines the level of scaling, microbiology, and corrosion stress conditions of the secondary coolant system. It also provides control signals for chemical dosing pumps and the blow down valve, in order to maintain optimal chemistry conditions. Finally, the controller is capable of sending monitored data to the Nalco server for trending and Nalco support.

MODIFICATION RECORD 96-02, ADDENDUM 2 Installation of Power Motion Inc. Rod Position Indication System ii This addendum to Modification Record 96-02, "Rod Position Indication Change from Veeder-Root to Encoder Type,"

~'J documents the change from the General Electric rod position indication system to.a component-based system. The new system, which was collaboratively desigm;d by Power Motion Inc. and MURR, is a collection of discrete components that can be replaced or upgraded individually rather than a complete system made of largely proprietary

  • components. The main drawer has a touch screen.interface on the front panel to serve as the primary display. An identical remote display is mounted in the reactor control console and has both power and signal wires provided from the main drawer. The touch screen operator terminals allow either screen (primary or remote) to operate the programmable logic controller functions and access to the setup menus.

MODIFICATION RECORD 18-02

J Fabrication of a New Control Rod Drive Mechanism

"]

__r<

This Modification Record documents the fabrication of a new control rod drive mechanism ( CRDM). The previously installed CRDMs have been in operation for nearly 52 years with minimal preventive maintenance performed on them

J over that time period. Although they were fairly reliable, the objective of fabricating a new CRDM is to systematically remove from service each installed CRDM with the intent to completely refurbish_ them and return them back to

~] service. This also creates a readily available spare CRDM should one fail.

MODIFICATION RECORD 18-01 Installation of Containment Differential Pressure Transmitter, Remote Indication, and Alarm This Modification Record documents the addition of a remote indication of reactor containment building differential pressure (DP) and a low level alarm inside the control room, which enhances the ability of the operators to determine II containment integrity status at all times. This facilitates a quicker re~ponse to any degradation of containment DP, up to and including shutting down the reactor if containment integrity is lost. *Two DP indicating transmitters are mounted in parallel, inside the reactor containment building to allow for isolation during calibration and testing. These are located on.the beamport floor, near the utility entry seal trench. The low pressure side of the transmitters are open to containment atmosphere. The high pressure side of the transmitters are routed to a common containment wall penetration. This penetration passes through the east wall of the containment structure into the laboratory building basement, near the utility entry seal trench. One of the transmitters provides a local indication of containment DP in the reactor containment building basement, and transmits a 4 to 20 mA signal to a remote process controUer mounted on the control room instrument panel. -The second-transmitter also provides a local indication and can be rotated into II the primary role. This provides operational flexibility should one of the transmitters fail, and to facilitate removing them from service for calibration. The process controller has its own direct current power supply from lighting panel LP-21 and provides an alarm on the auxiliary annunciator when DP conditions reach a low level condition.

MODIFICATION RECORD 99-01, ADDENDUM 1 (

Replace Process Instrumentation Recorders - 2018 This addendum to Modification Record 99-01, "Replace Process Instrumentation Recorders," documents the replacement of the primary coolant reactor inlet and outlet temperature; pool coolant heat exchanger inlet and outlet C,_

temperature; primary coolant flow through heat exchanger HX503A; pi;imary coolant flow through heat exchanger [

HX503B; pool coolant flow; primary coolant and pool coolant demineralizer flow; and secondary coolant flow, inlet temperature, and outlet temperature strip-chart, pen recorders with new paperless recorders. With the exception of the secondary coolant flow, inlet temperature, and outlet temperature recorder, all the recorders were Honeywell DPR II lOOC chart recorders. The secondary coolant flow, inlet and outlet temperature recorder was a Yokogawa model C

µRl 000 recorder. The process instrumentation recorders were in need of replacement due to their age, unavailability of spare parts, and the expense of purchasing pens and paper for the .charts. The replacement recorders are Yokogawa model DX1006N paperless recorders and are equivalent or superior in performance to the previous recorders. The new recorders display parameter indication locally, provide relay outputs *for alarms, are capable of mathematical calculations with the parameter data, and are connected to a network computer system which archives the data and allows for trending, reformatting, and analysis of the data at any time after data collection. Overall, the replacement C paperless recorders should be more reliable than the previous recorders as indicated by other research reactor facilities that have already converted to paperless recorders.

This addendum to Modification Record 99-05, "Installation of Eberline Model PING-IA Stack Monitor," documents replacement of the strip-chart, three-pen recorder for the Eberline stack monitor. The previously installed M-TEK 2803 three-pen chart recorder was replaced by a Yokogawa paperless recorder. The previous stack monitor recorder was in need of replacement due to obsolescence, unavailability of spare parts, and the expense of purchasing pens and paper for the recorder. The replacement Yokogawa model DX2008 paperless recorder is superior in performance. It N-2

  • displays parameter indications in the control room, provides additional high activity alarms to assist ~perators in determining the extent of a release, and is connected to an air-gap network computer system, which archives the data and allows for trending, reformatting, and analysis of the data at any time after data collection.

MODIFICATION RECORD 95-01, ADDENDUM 2 Replace Nuclear Instrumentation Recorders - 2018 This addendum to Modification Record 95-01, "Replacement of Nuclear Instruments," documents the removal of the strip-chart; pen recorders for the source range nuclear instrumentation (NI) channel no. 1 (SRM-1), wide range N1 channel (WRM), intermediate range N1 channel nos. 2 and 3 (IRM-2 and IRM-3), and power range N1 channel nos.

4, 5, and 6 (PRM-4, PRM-5, and PRM-6). The Yokogawa strip-chart, pen recorders used for recording the WRM;

] IRM-2, -3; and PRM-4, -5, -6 signals were replaced, by Yokogawa paperless recorders. The current Speedomax H

  • J one-pen chart recorder for SRM-i was removed and that space in the instrumentation cabinet was blanked off. The SRM-1 and WRM signals are now displayed on a single Yokogawa paperless recorder. The N1 recorders were in need of replacement due to their age, unavailability of spare parts, and the expense of purchasing pens and paper for the charts. The replacement recorders are Yokogawa model DX2008 paperless recorders and are equivalent or superior in performance to the previous recorders. The new recorders display parameter indication locally, provide relay outputs for interlocks, and are connected to a network computer system which archives the data and allows for trending, reformatting, and analysis of the data at any time after data collection.
