Rev 7 Diesel Fuel 011, Lube 011, and Starting Air 8383 B 3 8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS B 3 8 3 Diesel Fuel 011, Lube 011, and Starting Air BASES BACKGROUND Each diesel generator (DG) 1s provided with a storage tank having a fuel 011 capacity sufficient to operate that DG for a period of 7 days while the DG 1s supplying its continuous rated capacity as discussed m FSAR, Section 9 5 4 (Ref 1) The maximum load demand 1s calculated using the assumption that at least three DGs are available This on-site fuel 011 storage tank (FOST) capacity 1s sufficient to operate the DGs for longer than the time to replenish the ons1te supply from outside sources Fuel 01l 1s transferred from storage tank to day tank by a transfer pump associated with each storage tank Independent pumps and piping preclude the failure of one pump, or the rupture of any pipe, valve, or tank to result m the loss of more than one DG All outside tanks, pumps, and piping are located underground For proper operation of the standby DGs, 1t 1s necessary to ensure the proper quality of the fuel 011 Regulatory Guide 1 137 (Ref 2) addresses the recommended fuel 011 practices as supplemented by ANSI N195 (Ref 3) The fuel 011 properties governed by these SRs are the water and sediment content, the kinematic v1scos1ty, specific gravity (or API gravity) and impurity level The DG lubrication system 1s designed to provide sufficient lubrication to permit proper operation of its associated DG under all loading cond1t1ons The system 1s required to circulate the lube 011 to the diesel engine working surfaces and to remove excess heat generated by friction during operation Each engine 011 sump contains an inventory capable of supporting a minimum of 7 days of operation This supply 1s sufficient to allow the operator to replenish lube 011 from outside sources Each DG has an air start system with two air receivers (DG E has four air receivers) and each DG air start system provides adequate capacity for five successive start cycles on the DG without recharging the air start receivers Each bank of two air receivers for DG E has adequate capacity for a minimum of five successive start cycles (continued)

8383 The 1rnt1al cond1t1ons of Design Basis Accident (OBA) and transient analyses 1n FSAR, Chapter 6 (Ref 4), and Chapter 15 (Ref 5), assume Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) systems are OPERABLE The DGs are designed to provide sufficient capacity, capab1hty, redundancy, and rehab1hty to ensure the ava1lab1hty of necessary power to ESF systems so that fuel, Reactor Coolant System, and containment design hmrts are not exceeded These hm1ts are discussed in more detail in the Bases for Section 3 2, Power D1stnbut1on L1m1ts, Section 3 4, Reactor Coolant System (RCS), and Section 3 6, Containment Systems Since diesel fuel 011, lube 011, and starting air subsystem support the operation of the standby AC power sources, they satisfy Cntenon 3 of the NRC Polley Statement (Ref 6)

Stored diesel fuel 01l 1s required to have sufficient supply for 7 days of full load operation It 1s also required to meet specific standards for quality Add1t1onally, sufficient lube 011 supply must be available to ensure the capab1hty to operate at full load for 7 days This requirement, in con1unct1on with an ability to obtain replacement supplies within 7 days, supports the ava1lab1hty of DGs required to shut down the reactor and to maintain rt 1n a safe cond1t1on for an ant1c1pated operational occurrence (AOO) or a postulated OBA with loss of offs1te power DG day tank fuel 011 requirements, as well as transfer capab1hty from the storage tank to the day tank, are addressed in LCO 3 8 1, "AC Sources-Operating," and LCO 3 8 2, "AC Sources-Shutdown "

The starting air system 1s required to have a minimum capacity for five successive DG start attempts without recharging the air start receivers The AC sources (LCO 3 8 1 and LCO 3 8 2) are required to ensure the ava1lab11Ity of the required power to shut down the reactor and maintain 1t in a safe shutdown cond1t1on after an AOO or a postulated OBA Because stored diesel fuel 011, lube 011, and starting arr subsystem support LCO 3 8 1 and LCO 3 8 2, stored diesel fuel 011, lube 011, and starting air are reqwred to be w1thm limits when the associated DG 1s required to be OPERABLE (continued)

SUSQUEHANNA-UNIT 1 3 8-46

BASES ACTIONS Rev 7 Diesel Fuel 011, Lube 011, and Starting Air 8383 The ACTIONS Table 1s modified by a Note indicating that separate Cond1t1on entry 1s allowed for each DG This 1s acceptable, since the Required Actions for each Cond1t1on provide appropriate compensatory actions for each inoperable DG subsystem Complying with the Required Actions for one inoperable DG subsystem may allow for continued operation, and subsequent inoperable DG subsystem(s) governed by separate Cond1t1on entry and application of associated Required Actions In this Cond1t1on, the 7 day fuel 011 supply for a DG 1s not available However, the Condition 1s restricted to fuel OIi levei reductions that maintain at least a 6 day supply The fuel 011 level equivalent to a 6 day

, supply 1s 41,018 gallons for DG A-D and 52,340 gallons for DG E These circumstances may be caused by events such as a

Full load operation required for an inadvertent start while at minimum required level, or b

Feed and bleed operations that may be necessitated by increasing particulate levels or any number of other OIi quality degradations This restriction allows sufficient time for obta,rnng the requ1s1te replacement volume and performing the analyses required prior to add1t1on of the fuel 011 to the tank A period of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> 1s considered sufficient to complete restoration of the required level prior to declaring the DG inoperable This penod 1s acceptable based on the remaining capacity (> 6 days), the fact that action will be 1rnt1ated to obtain replenishment, the ava1lab1llty of fuel 011 m the storage tank of the fifth diesel generator that 1s not required to be OPERABLE, and the low probability of an event during this brief period With lube 011 sump level not v1s1ble m the sight glass, sufficient lube 011 to support 7 days of continuous DG operation at full load cond1t1ons may not be available Therefore, the DG 1s declared inoperable 1mmed1ately (continued)

SUSQUEHANNA - UNIT 1 3 8-47

BASES ACTIONS (continued)

Rev 7 Diesel Fuel 011, Lube 011, and Starting Air 8383 This Cond1t1on 1s entered as a result of a failure to meet the acceptance criterion for particulates Normally, trending of particulate levels allows sufficient time to correct high particulate levels prior to reaching the hm,t of acceptability Poor sample procedures (bottom sampling), contaminated sampling equipment, and errors in laboratory analysis can produce failures that do not follow a trend Smee the presence of particulates does not mean failure of the fuel 011 to burn properly 1n the diesel engine, since particulate concentration 1s unlikely to change significantly between Surveillance Frequency intervals, and since proper engine performance has been recently demonstrated (w1th1n 31 days), 1t 1s prudent to allow a brief period prior to declaring the associated DG inoperable The 7 day Completion Time allows for further evaluation, resampling, and re-analysis of the DG fuel 011 With the new fuel rnl properties defined 1n the Bases for SR 3 8 3 3 not within the required limits, a period of 30 days 1s allowed for restoring the stored fuel 011 properties This period provides sufficient time to test the stored fuel 011 to determine that the new fuel 011, when mixed with previously stored fuel 011, remains acceptable, or to restore the stored fuel rnl properties This restoration may involve feed and bleed procedures, filtering, or combination of these procedures Even 1f a DG start and load was required during this time interval and the fuel 011 properties were outside limits, there 1s high likelihood that the DG would still be capable of performing,ts intended function With starting air receiver pressure < 240 ps1g in one or more a,r receivers, sufficient capacity for five successive DG start attempts cannot be provided by the air start system However, as long as all receiver pressures are> 180 ps1g, there 1s adequate capacity for at least one start attempt, and the DG can be considered OPERABLE while the air receiver pressure 1s restored to the required limit A period of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> 1s considered sufficient to complete restoration to the required pressure prior to declaring the DG inoperable This period 1s acceptable based on the remaining air start capacity, the fact that most DG starts are accomplished on the first attempt, and the low probability of an event during this brief period Entry into Cond1t1on E 1s not required when air receiver pressure 1s less than required hm,ts following a successful start while the DG 1s operating

Rev 7 Diesel Fuel 011, Lube 011, and Starting Air 8383 Failure to meet any of the hm,ts for key properties of new fuel 011 prior to add1t1on to the storage tank 1s cause for reJect,ng the new fuel OIi, but does not represent a failure to meet the LCO concern since the fuel 01l 1s not added to the storage tanks Within 31 days following the inrt,al new fuel 011 sample, the fuel 01l 1s analyzed to establish that the other properties specified 1n Spec1ficat1on 5 5 9 and Reference 7 are met for new fuel OIi when tested following the gu1dehnes of ASTM 0975 (Ref 7) The 31 day period 1s acceptable because the fuel 011 properties of interest, even 1f they were not within stated limits, would not have an 1mmed1ate effect on DG operation This Surveillance ensures the availability of high quality fuel OIi for the DGs Fuel 011 degradation during long term storage shows up as an increase 1n particulate, mostly due to ox1dat1on The presence of particulate does not mean that the fuel 011 will not burn properly rn a diesel engine The particulate can cause fouling of filters and fuel 011 1nJect1on equipment, however, which can cause engine failure Particulate concentrations should be determined following the guidelines of ASTM D6217 (Ref 7) This method involves a filtration determination of total particulate concentration 1n the fuel OIi This hm,t 1s 10 mg/I It 1s acceptable to obtain a field sample for subsequent laboratory testing in lieu of field testing The Frequency of this test takes into cons1derat1on fuel 011 degradation trends that 1nd1cate that particulate concentration 1s unlikely to change significantly between Frequency intervals SR 3 8 34 This Surveillance ensures that, without the aid of the refill compressor, sufficient a,r start capacity for each DG 1s available The system design requirements provide for a minimum of five engine start cycles without recharging

Rev 7 Diesel Fuel 011, Lube Oil, and Starting Air 8383 The pressure specified m this SR 1s intended to reflect the lowest value at which the five starts can be accomplished The air starting system capacity for each start cycle 1s calculated based on the following 1

each cranking cycle duration should be approximately three seconds,or 2

consist of two to three engine revolutions, or 3

air start requirements per engine start provided by the engine manufacturer, whichever air start reqwrement 1s larger The Surveillance 1s modified by a Note which does not require the SR to be met when the associated DG 1s running This 1s acceptable because once the DG 1s started, the safety function of the air start system 1s performed The Surveillance Frequency 1s controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program SR 3 8 3 5 M1crob1olog1cal fouling 1s a maJor cause of fuel 011 degradation There are numerous bacteria that can grow in fuel 011 and cause fouling, but all must have a water environment m order to survive Periodic removal of water from the fuel storage tanks ehmmates the necessary environment for bacterial survival This 1s the most effective means of controlling m1crob1olog1cal fouling In add1t1on, 1t eliminates the potential for water entrainment 1n the fuel 011 during DG operation Water may come from any of several sources, mclud1ng condensation, ground water, ram water, contaminated fuel 011, and from breakdown of the fuel 011 by bacteria Frequent checking for and removal of accumulated water mm1m1zes fouling and provides data regarding the watertight integrity of the fuel 011 system The Surveillance Frequency 1s controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (continued)
