THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION UNIT 1 (TMI-1)

OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR "

DOCKET NO. 50-289 5

Technical Specification-Chance Request No.19, Amendment No.1 The Licensee requests that the enclosed pages be added to the TMI-l Technical Specifications Sections 3 and h, as appropriate, and that Item 11, Page h-8 (Table h.1-2) be deleted from the existing Technical Specifications. These pages replace those previously submitted by Change Request No.19 on August 23, 1975 Reason for Proposed Change To reflect changes to Change Request No.19 as a result of revisions to the USNRC redel technical specifications relating to hydraulic snubbers.

I Safety Analysis Justifying Change This proposed Technical Specification Change does not involve any unreviewed safety questions in that it only incorporates additional restrictions to ensure the reliability of hydraulic snubbers already in use at TMI-1.

3.17 Shock Suppressors (Snubbers)

Anplicability Applies to the operability of the hydraulic snubbers listed in Table 3 17 1.

i Objective l

To identify those conditions for which the operability of the hydraulic s tubbers are required and to identify the time limits in which either t0e snubber must be made operable or reactor shutdown cust occur.

?

Specification 3.17.1 During all modes of operation except Cold Shutdown and Refueling, all safety-related hydraulic snubbers listed in Table 317.1 shall be operable except as noted in 317.2 through 3.17.4 below.

3.17.2 From and after the time that a hydraulic snubber is determined to be inoperable, continued reactor operation is permissible only during the succeeding 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> unless the snubber is sooner made operable.

3.17.3 If the requirements of 3.17.1 and 3.17 2 cannot be cet, an orderly shutdowl shall be initiated and the reactor shall be in cold shutdown condition within an additional 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />.

3.lT.h If a hydraulic snubber is deter =ined to be inoperable while the reactor is in the shutdown or refuel mode, the snubber shall be made operable prior to reactor start-up.

3.17.5 Snubbers may be added to safety-related syste=s without prior License A=endment to Table 3.17 1 provided that a revision to Table 3.17.1 is included with the next License A=endment Request.

Bases Snubbers are designed to prevent unrestrained pipe motion under dynamic loads as night occur during an earthquake or severe transient, while allowing nor=al thermal motion during startup and shutdown. The consequence of an inoperable snubber is an increase in the probability

[

of structural damage to piping as a result of a seis=ic or other event initiating dynamic loads. It is, therefore, required that all hydraulic i

snubbers required to protect the primary ecolant system or any other safety system or component be operable during reactor operatien or other periods when severe transients might cause damaging dynacic le: a.

1479 192 i

Because the snubber protection is required only during relatively low probability events, a period of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> is allowed for repairs or replacements. In case a shutdown is required, the allowance of 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br /> to reach a cold shutdown condition vill per=it an orderly shutdown consistent with standard operating procedures.

Since plant startup should not co==ence with safety equip =ent having known defects, specification 3.17.k prohibits startup with inoperable snubbers.

Table 3.171 lia s all hydraulic snubbers installed on nuclear safety related systems throughout the plant. Snubbers were classified for the table in accordance with the following guidelines:

a.

High Radiation Area: A general field of greater than 100 mr/hr.

b.

Especially difficult to remove: Those snubbers that are elevated more than 10 feet off the floor and that, due to interferences, may not be safely reached from a suitable work platfor=.

c.

Inaccessible during normal operation: Those snubbers that are located within the secondary shield vall of the Reactor Building or within r.y area where the general field is 100 =r/hr. or gre ater.

d.

Accessible during normal operation: Those snubbers that do not Jall into paragraph a, b, and c above.

h.17 Shock Suueressors (Snubbers)

Applicability Applies to the inspection of hydraulic snubbers listed in Table 3 17.1 to determine their operability.

Objective To provide assurance of the operability of the hydraulic snubbers.

Sr ;ificntion I

k.lT.1 All hydraulic snubbers whose seal =aterial has been desenstrated i

by operating experience, lab testing, or analysis to be co=patible with the operating environment shall be visually inspected. This inspection shall include but not necessarily be limited to, inspection of hydraulic fluid reservoir, fluid connections, and linkage connections to the piping and anchor to verify snubber operability in accordance with the following schedule:

Number of Snubbers Found Next Required Inoperable During Inspection Inspection or During Inspection Interval Interval 0

18 months + 25%

1 12 months I 25%

2 6 months I 25%

3, h 12h days 7 25%

1 5, 6, T 62 days

][ 25%

18 31 days

+ 25%

The required inspection interval shall not be lengthened more than one step at a time.

l Snubbers may be categorized in two groups, " accessible" or 1

" inaccessible" based on their accessibility for inspection during reactor operation. Snubbers classified as " accessible" vill be inspected according to the above schedule. Snubbers l

classified es " inaccessible" vill be inspected according to the above schedule if plant conditions permit or during the first reactor shutdown thereafter, i

i These two groups =ay be inspected independently according to the above schedule.

h lT.2 All accessible hydraulic snubbers whose seal materials are other than ethylene propylene or other caterial that has been deconstrated to be cetpatible with the operating environtent shall be visually inspected for operability at least every 31 days. Snubbers classified as inaccessible whose seal caterials i.

i479 209

have not been demonstrated to be compatible with the operating environment shall be visually inspected for operability at least every 31 days if plant conditions per=it or during the first reactor shutdown thereafter.

4.17.3 The initial inspection shall be performed within 6 =onths fro = the date of issuance of these specifications. For the purpose of entering the schedule in Specification 4.17.1, it shall be assu=ed that the unit had been on a 6 month inspection interval.

h.17.h Once each refueling cycle, a representative sa=ple of 10 snubbers or approximately 10% of the snubbers, whichever is less, shall be functionally tested for operability including verification of proper piston =ove=ent, lockup and bleed. For each unit and subsequent unit found inoperable, an additional 10% or ten snubbers, whichever is less, shall be so tevted.

Snubbers of greater than 50,000 lbs. need not be functionally tested.

i l

Bases All safety related hydraulic snubbers are visually inspected for overall integrity and operability. The inspection vill include verification of proper orientation, adequat a hydraulic fluid level, and proper attach =ent j

of snubber to piping and structures.

The inspection frequency is based upon =ainta#.ning a constant level of snubber protection. Thus the required inspect 'on interval varies inversely with the observed snubber failurer.

he nu=ber of inoperable snubbers found during a required inspection determines the time interval I

for the next required inspection.

Inspections performed before that l

interval has elapsed =ay be used as a new reference point to determine the next inspection. However, the results of such early inspections performed before the original required time interval has elapsed (nc=inal l

ti=e less 25%) =ay not be used to lengthen the required inspection 6

interval. Any inspection whose results require a shorter inspection interval vill override the previous schedule.

Experience at operating facilities has shown that the required surveillance progra= should assure an acceptable level of snubber perfor=ance provided that the seal =aterials are co=patible with the operating environ =ent.

Snubbers containing seal =aterial which has not been demonstrated by operating experience, lab tests, or analysis to be compatible with the operating enviren=ent should be inspected =or.

frequently (every

=onth) until =aterial co=patibility is confirmed or an appropriate changeout in co=pleted.

Examination of defective snubbers at reactor facilities and material tests performed at several laboratories (Reference 1) has shewn that

=illable gun polyuretharedeteriorates rapidly under the te=perature and =oisture ccnditions present in many snubber locations. Although colded polyurethane exhibits greater resistance to these conditions, it also may be unsuitable for application in the higher te=perature 1479 210

environ =ent s.

Data are not currently available to precisely define an upper temperature limit for the molded polyurethane.

Lab tests and in-plant experience indicate that seal materials are available, primarily ethylene propylene compounds, which should give satisfactory performance under the most severe conditions expected in reactor int.allation.

To further increase the assurance of snubber reliability, fune.tional tr 4ts should be perforced once each refueling cyclc. These tests vill include stroking of the snubbers to verify proper piston covecent, lock-up and bleed. Ten percent

,r ten snubbers, whichever is less, represents an adeque'.a sample for such tests. Observed failures on these j

sa=p?.us should require testing of additional units. Snubbers der gnated in Table 3 17.1 as being in high radiation areas cr those especially difficult to remove need not be selected for functional tests provided operability was previously verified.

Snubbers of rated capacity greater than 50,000 lbs. are exempt from the functional :esting requirements because of the in-l practicality of tescing such large units.
