cense proceedings subnits the following contentions in response to the Board's Order of April 11, 1979. Intervenor was grantMCAL PDR until May 25, 1979 to subnit contentions by a succeedir.g Bo u d Order. These contentions were not subnitted previously because the"s either had nothinc to do with ch'inge in "elant design or -
were not based on entirely new evidence. Cone arose due to events during the period granted by the Board to subnit con-tentions.

valves, and actors. Intervenor contends the use of these coa-conents,,of below safety grade viol.ates General Design Cri-terd.a (GDC) #29, and 10 CFR 55a(h) and entails risk to his health and safety interests. Intervenor recuest that the Board enforce GDS #29 and 10 CFR 55aCh) on the equipment listed here and in rable 3 10-1, and equipment not listed that is used to citigate transients.

The HSLEM cannoc be set low encuch to detect racii fuel failure with sufficient sensitivity due to the presence or J, a w.nica ,

NUR2G-0401 (March 1973) concludes that a BhR flo'.t blo c'.: age accident resultin in fuel failure cannot be detected with certainty by the MSLRM. This intervenor argues:
- (a) Since the M3LEM does function without U 6 interference in a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) that nuclear stean suc.ol.v . systen should be constructed at ACNG3, or
(b) Applicant should consider the use of a Ganna Dose 7.at e Alar =, enploying an Ionization Chanber (See: Health .hvcica, 3-, 7.w...,10,0, o g o- 5_gg T, .
The higher power core density a n d hi6h total output thermal power of AC5G3, nake rapid fuel failure a hicher c probabilit-.
than any Other functioning MTR, and thus the contention is

(A LS), Fower Coolant Mistatch Accident (FCMA), delayed SCR.E or other transient causing events, the fuel rods will cause steam blanketin of the Z ergency Core Cooling Systen (ICCS) coolant, preventing them fron being adecuately cooled, leading to fuel melt with cons ecuent explosion danger from a molten metal-water. reaction or inability of the reactor to cool a o.ile of fuel which has nelted and fallen to the botta= of the reactor vessel. Further, a prinary research objective of the Loss of Fluide Test (LOFT) facility appears ('iUR2G-0006, March, 1979) to be to understand heat transfot' :uc .- s this during a cooling e=ergency, e.ven though the major tests on adequacy of ECCS used depressurized fael rods. Interve or concludes his health and safety interest may be impaired by stean blan-
'ceting of the fuel rods and that this roactor with its extremely hi-h o power core densit.~ and high thernal output =akes the prob-les a particularly great ha ard.

economic interest would be ef ected. Although deneral Electric has issued its taoical report, the Staff's consultant cuestions the results, so Intervenor's contention has a basis.
- 22. Intervenor contends the control rods na7 develope cracking in the blad.es in-core which hold the neutron absorbing baron carbide, B4C. Since the centermost rods are suoject to the greatest neu-tron absorbing recuirement, these may crack severally, resulting in an amount of B4 C greater than the highest rod worth being dis-persed in the coolant and resulting in inability to shutdown.
Intervenor allges an economic interest because prolonged inade-quate shutdown will cause loss of use of the plant, and likely strain Apnlicant's system ahich is not interconnected with any utility sending power out of the state. Further, the use of the 8 x 8 (sinus one) fuel assembly makes the issue relevant to ACNGS because the control rods each have to absorb more neutrons than with a 7 x 7 fuel assembly.
- 23. The design based loss of coolant accident (LCCA) assuces a large pipe break due to a fault in the pipe while the reactor is oper-ating at full power. However, the accident could also occur by being initiated by the pressure surse due to an overheating transient such as a power encursion or coolant flow blockage.
Intervenor contends his health and safety interests are not pro-tected by the design based LCCA, because of the accident possi-bility cited and that the Energency Core Coolin.g Systen (Z:03) should be designed to citigate such an accident. Applicant's large a:wer core density makes consideration of this proble-at the construction license stage appropriate.

Intervenor contends the control rod s stem must have a greater number of rods with each controllig a scaller nuater of fuel rods in order to bring the reactivity worth of each rod to no more than 1.N5 and the peak energsv -ield to less than 250 cal. per gram of fuel.
- 25. The design based accident for a flow blockare inciden; is in-adequate because it assures blockage of but one fuel assembly.
The only knc.n accident of this type (a very serious one) in-volved blockage of two fuel assemblies (Ferci, Unit-1, 1966).
In addition, ITUREG-0401, " Fuel Failure Detection in Operating Reactors," March 1973, _; age 23, concludes that, ". . . a possi-ble excection (to adequacy of fuel failure detection) is asso-ciated with a postulated 3'lR flow blockage accic'ent which night proceed undetected in its early stages."

Apolicant has stated in the PSAR that since the coderating unter is unboarated, the bolts do not need inspec-tion or oth9r safe:7 procedures. Intervenor contends bolts should be visually inspected at refueling time because the consecuences of containaant vessel head partial li.!t-off or other failure presents a high risk to his safety because the reactor vessel fi'aion products would be releaced into the containment building where they would be difficult to cool. If the head blew off, and pierced containment building roof, then otvioucly this would be vorsE. '! hare the proposed ACNGS will have such a high thernal powcr output, the accident liklihood is greater than other B'dRs.
- 27. Intervenor contends that the pedestal concrete c' ACNGS may be weakened by the heat from a power excursion accident (PEA) or loss of coolan't accident-(LOCA) such nat restart and coeration of tTe reactor tould endanger Intervenor's health and safety through subsequent reactor novecent due to the original thermal dacage to_tho. pedestal. Subsecuent damage would include but not be licited to pipe breaks and other accidents costing auch to recair and releasing radio-activity in encess of 10 CFR 50, Ap?endin 1.

This endangers intervenor's interests with a reactivity insertion accident J.pplicant states ( P. 15 1-75 of the PS!.R) that, "In all cases the sub-sequent withdra.tal speeds (that is speeds due to an ' unplanned withdrawal' uhich are variable) are less than a rod drop accidnnt",
infering the consequencas nust be less.

Intervenor contends coolant flow induced vibration of the fuel assenblies vill lead to degraiation of the Local Power Range Monit.rs (LP2Ms) signal due to wear or other danage, to the extent reactivit7 monitorins and control in several significant fuel rods will become unreliable, exceedin~ tne
_+ 5.M4 error in Radiation Monitorin6 Svstens and leading to -
aininistrative derating of the reactor. Intervenor contends Applicant should provide additional LPRMs to give additional information on the BWR core's power characteristics cufficient to prevent either adninistrative derating or accident hacards such as power excursions. Current plans for 3 LPRMs are not sufficient.

Intervet.or contends the vaporization rate of the Energency Core Cooling Systen (2003) water during a design based 1:ss of cool-ant accident (LOC 1.) is nore rapid than the General Electric (GI) nodel predicted for an 8 x 5 fuel assembly coro such as .s 1CUGS.

Metalic uranium fuel pives up its fission heat =uch more rapidly than oxide Z'M such that the coolant heating effect (Doppler ef'ect) which would reduce the moderating ability of the coolant and decrease fissioning is less in the ACGGS case than the experiments in which the extent of the Doppler effect in mitigation of reactivity initi-ated accidents or transients was determined (3ORJ.I -1). Oxide fuel tests such as 5?Z2T-1 had waterloc_ qed fuel rods > which diminished their reactivity, and 3 FEET-3, was never tested for upper limit of Dop;ler negative reactivity effect, and the current Power E"--t Test Facility (PETF) usas depressurised fuel rods which di2inis'nes reactivity when inserted. Inter-venor contends there is no exp'ricental datn to show the Dop?ler effect will function to protect Intervenor's health interests against a severe explosion as cuch as G2 and Appli-cant believe. Further, ACNG3 is the largest B'fR proposed and hence the effect of overesticate of Doppler reactivity .
