U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-0914 Enclosure Page 4 of 9 in Combined License(COL)Table 2.2.5-1 can be retrieved in the MCR,controls exist in the MCR to cause remotely operated valves identified in COL Table 2.2.5-1 perform their active functions, the valves identified in COL Table 2.2.5-1 as having RMS control perform their active safety function after receiving a signal from the RMS, and that after loss of motive power, the remotely operated valves identified in Table COL 2.2.5-1 assume the indicated loss of motive power position. Additionally, this ITAAC verifies displays of the parameters identified in COL Table 2.2.5-3 can be retrieved in the MCR.

i) The air flow rate from the VES is at least 60 scfm and not more than 70 scfm.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperational test procedures 3-VES-ITRR-501 and 4-VES-ITRR-501 (References 1 & 2)to confirm that the required amount of air flow is delivered to the MCR.

The test manually actuates a MCR isolation and VES actuation from a normal ventilation alignment, verifies proper system alignment and measures the flow rate into the MCR from the VES using VES-FT003A/B(MCR Air Delivery Line A/B Flow rate sensors). The flow from the Unit 3 VES is XX scfm and YY scfm for Unit 4 VES. This demonstrates that the air flow rate from the VES is at least 60 scfm and not more than 70 scfm.

iii) The MCR air is of breathable oualitv.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperational test procedures 3-VES-ITRR-501 and 4-VES-ITRR-501 (References 1 & 2)to confirm that the MCR air is of breathable quality.

The test manually actuates a MCR isolation and VES actuation from a normal ventilation alignment, verifies proper system alignment and records data from 3 air quality analyzers for a minimum of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. The VES provides breathable air from the air storage bottles and maintains the breathability of the MCR air by limiting the carbon dioxide concentration below Vi percent by volume. The MCR air quality is maintained within the guidelines of Table 1 and Appendix C, Table C-1 of ASHRAE Standard 62.1 - 1989(Reference 14). The Unit 3 and Unit 4 data is analyzed and extrapolated to a 72-hour duration for up to 11 MCR occupants and demonstrates that the Unit 3 and Unit 4 MCR air is of breathable quality.

i) The MCR oressure boundarv is oressurized to greater than or eoual to 1/8-in. water gauge with respect to the surroundino area.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperational test procedures 3-VES-ITRR-501 and 4-VES-ITRR-501 (References 1 & 2)to confirm that the MCR is capable of maintaining the required pressurization of the pressure boundary with VES in service.

During the period when the MCR ventilation systems are in an alignment with VES in service, the atmospheric pressure is measured in an adjacent area outside the MCR and the test meter is zeroed. The MCR is entered, the meter is allowed to stabilize, and a reading is taken. This is repeated for each adjacent area to the MCR until all adjacent areas have been tested. The test results show the Unit 3 MCR minimum boundary differential pressure is O.xxx inch Water gauge (WG)and the Unit 4 MCR minimum boundary differential pressure is O.xxx inch WG which confirms the MCR pressurization boundary is pressurized to greater than or equal to 1/8-in.

water gauge with respect to the surrounding area.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-0914 Enclosure Page 5 of 9 in Air leakage into the MGR is less than or eoual to 10 cfm.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperationai test procedures 3-VES-iTPP-501 and 4-VES-iTPP-501 (References 1 & 2)to confirm that air leakage into the MGR is less than or equal to 10 cfm.

During the period when the MGR ventilation systems are in an alignment with VES in service, a tracer gas is injected into the MGR to establish a known concentration based on MGR volume.

Once an equilibrium value is reached, the tracer gas injection is reduced and periodic sampling of the MGR atmosphere is performed. The envelope air leakage into the MGR is calculated and corrected to account for MGR outside air makeup. The results of the test demonstrate the air leakage into the Unit 3 MGR is xx cfm and the air leakage into the Unit 4 MGR is xx cfm which confirms the air leakage into the MGR is less than or equal to 10 cfm.

The air flow rate at the outlet of the MGR passive filtration svstem is at least 600 cfm Greater than the flow measured bv VES-003A/B.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperationai test procedures 3-VES-ITPP-501 and 4-VES-ITPP-501 (References 1 & 2)to confirm that the air flow rate at the outlet of the MGR passive filtration system is at least 600 cfm greater than the flow rate measured by VES-003A/B.

During the period when the MGR ventilation systems are in an alignment with VES in service, the MGR air delivery line A/B flow rate (VES-003A/B) and the flow rate at the outlet of the MGR passive filtration system are recorded. The flow differential for Unit 3 is xxx cfm and the flow differential for Unit 4 is yyy cfm. This verifies that the air flow rate at the outlet of the MGR passive filtration system is at least 600 cfm greater than the flow rate measured by VES-003A/B.

Safetv-related displavs identified in Table 2.2.5-1 can be retrieved in the MGR.

An inspection is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 component test work packages, SNG922125 and SNGYYYYYY (References 3 and 4)to verify the safety-related displays identified in GOL Table 2.2.5-1 (Attachment A)can be retrieved in the MGR.

Testing begins at the Primary Dedicated Safety Panel for Division A and verifying all of the safety-related displays in Attachment A can be retrieved. This is repeated for each of the 3 remaining Primary Dedicated Safety Panel Divisions. This confirms that the safety-related displays identified in Table 2.2.5-1 can be retrieved in the Unit 3 and Unit 4 MGR.

Gontrols in the MGR operate to cause remotelv ooerated valves identified in Table 2.2.5-1 to perform their active safetv functions.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 component test work packages, SNG922125 and SNGYYYYYY (References 3 and 4)to verify controls in the MGR operate to cause remotely operated valves identified in GOL Table 2.2.5-1 (Attachment B)to perform their active safety functions.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-0914 Enclosure Page 6 of 9 Testing begins by ensuring each valve listed in Attachment B is closed. At a MGR operator workstation, each valve is operated to the active function position (open), the valve position is verified locally, and documented in the test. This demonstrates that controls in Unit 3 and Unit 4 MGR operate to cause remotely operated valves identified in Table 2.2.5-1 to perform their active safety functions.

The remotelv ooerated valves identified in Table 2.2.5-1 as havino RMS control perform the active safetv function identified in the table after receivino a sional from the RMS.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 component test packages SNGXXXXXX and SNGYYYYYY (References 5 and 6). These component test packages utilize B-GEN-ITRGI-039(Reference 7)to direct the performance of test procedures 3/4-GEN-OTS 002(References 8 and 9)and 3/4-GEN-OTS-10-003(References 10 and 11)to confirm that the remotely operated valves identified in GOL Table 2.2.5-1 (Attachment G)as having RMS control perform the active safety function identified in the table after receiving a signal from the RMS.

References 8 through 11 establish initial conditions with each valve verified locally and in the MGR to be in the closed position. An actuation signal is generated by RMS using the RMS Maintenance and Test Panel(MTR)to generate a signal to open the valves in Attachment G.

Each valve is verified locally and in the MGR to be open. This verifies that the remotely operated valves identified in Table 2.2.5-1 as having RMS control perform the active safety function identified in the table after receiving a signal from the RMS for both Unit 3 and Unit 4.

After loss of motive oower. each remotelv operated valve identified in Table 2.2.5-1 assumes the indicated loss of motive power oosition.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 component test work packages, SNG922125 and SNGYYYYYY (References 3 and 4)to demonstrate that after a loss of motive power, each remotely operated valve identified in GOL Table 2.2.5-1 (Attachment D)assumes the indicated loss of motive power position.

The component test configures and documents the air-operated valves(VES-RL-V022A and V022B) in the closed position and then removes power to the solenoid valve supplying air to the valve operator. The valve is verified to fail to the required position (open) iocally. Rower is restored, and the valve is positioned as required by plant conditions. The solenoid-operated valves(VES-RL-V005A and V005B)are placed in the closed position, power is removed, and the valve is verified to fail to the required position (open) locally. An attempt is made to reposition the valve and it is verified to not change position. Rower is restored, and the valves are positioned as required by plant conditions. The test results demonstrate that for Unit 3 and Unit 4 after a loss of motive power, each remotely operated valve identified in Table 2.2.5-1 assumes the indicated loss of motive power position.

The disolavs identified in Table 2.2.5-3 can be retrieved in the MGR.

An inspection is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 component test work packages, SNG922125 and SNGYYYYYY (References 3 and 4)to confirm that the displays identified in GOL Table 2.2.5-3(Attachment E)can be retrieved in the MGR.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-0914 Enclosure Page 7 of 9 Testing begins at an operator work station in Unit 3 and Unit 4 MGR and verifies all the displays identified in Attachment E can be retrieved. This confirms that the displays identified in Table 2.2.5-3 can be retrieved in Unit 3 and Unit 4 MGR.

The backoround noise level in the MGR does not exceed 65 dB(A) at the operator work stations when the VES is ooeratino.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperational test procedures 3-VES-ITPP-501 and 4-VES-ITPP-501 (References 1 & 2)to verify the background noise level in the MGR does not exceed 65 dB(A) at the operator work stations when the as-built VES is operating.

During the period when the MGR ventilation systems are in an alignment with VES in service, the background noise level is recorded for no less than 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> at the MGR operator work stations. This data is analyzed, recorded and the results show Unit 3 maximum noise level is XX dB(A) at the MGR operator work stations and Unit 4 maximum noise level is YY dB(A) at the MGR operator work stations. The test results demonstrate the background noise level in the MGR does not exceed 65 dB(A) at the operator work stations when the VES is operating.
