LWR-2, B. Silver Responding SS Branch and Technical Reviewer: ME3, R. J. Klessel Review Status: Awaiting Information Recent conversations between the Mechanient Engineering and Contain=ent Systems Branches have indicated that the containment purge systen isolation valve's are identified in Table 6.2-15 of the Finni Safety Analysis Report as containment isolation valves and receive automatic isolation signals. Therefore, should a loss of coolant accident occur while the valves are open they vill be called on to close while experianHng the LOCA pressure and temperature conditions within the containment. The attached request for additional infor=ation solicits verification that the valves are, in fact, capable of closing following the LOCA event.

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Table 6.2-15 of the FSAR indicates that the containment purge system isolation valves are containment isolation valves and receive automatic isolation signals. Therefore, should a loss of coolant accident occur while these valves are open they will be called on to close while experiencing the LOCA pressure and te=perature within the containment.

It is the staff's position that the containment purze isolation valves are active valves. Therefore, describe the valve operability progras applicable to these valves. De=onstrate that this program is capable of p

verifying the ability of these valves to close when subjected to the pressure and tenperature profiles shown in Figures 6.'.4 and 6.2.5, respectively, of the F5AR. Your attentica is directed to Section II.2 of Standard Review Plan 3.9.3'for a description of an acceptable operability program.
