NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION 3
C WASHING TON, D. C. 20565 9,
I April 10, 1980 ALL POWER REACTOR LICENSEES ( h ce d b b M c N l)
Gentlemen:
It has recently come to our attention that there may be some misunderstanding regarding the use of the term OPERABLE as it applies to the single failure criterion for safety systems in power reactors. The purpose of this letter is to clarify the meaning of this term and to request licensees to take specific actions to assure that it is appropriately applied at their facilities.
IE Information Notice No. 79-35, " Control of Maintenance and Essential Equipment" dlso Contained information on this stubject.
The NRC's Standard Technical Specifications (STS) were fonnulated to preserve the single failure criterion for systems that are relied upon in the safety analysis report.
By and large, the single failure criterion is preserved by specifying Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) that require all redundant components of safety related systems to be OPERABLE. When the required' redundancy is not maintained, either due to equipment failure or maintenance outar e, action is required, within a specified time, to change the operating mode >f the plant to place it in a safe condition. The specified time to take action, usually called the equipment out-of-service time, is a temporary relaxation of the single failure criterion, which, consistent with overall system reliability considerations, provides a limited time to fix equipment or otherwise make it OPERABLE.
If equipment can be returned to OPERABLE status within the specified time, plant shutdown is not required.
LCOs are specified for each safety related system in the plant, and with few exceptions, the ACTION statements address single outages of components, train:
or subsystems.
For any particular system, the LC0 does not address multiple outages of redundant components, nor does it address the effects of outages of any support systems - such as electrical power or cooling water - that are relied upon to maintain the OPERABILITY of the particular system. This is because of the large number of combinations of these types of outages that are possible.
Instead, the STS employ general specifications and an explicit definition of the term OPERABLE to encompass all such cases. These provisions have been formulated to assure that no set o.f equipment outages would be allowed to persist that would result in the facility being in an unprotected condition. These specifications are contained in the enclosed Model Technical Specifica tions.
Illustrative examples of how these specifications apply are contained in the associated Bases.
. April 10, 1980 Because of the importance of assuring safety system availability, the staff has concluded that all facility technical specifications should contain these requirements, and that appropriate procedures should be implemented to assure that the necessary records, such as plant logs or similar documents, are reviewed to detennine compliance with these specifications (1) promptly upon discovering a component, train, or subsystem to La inoperable, and (2) prior to removing a component from service.
Therefore, we request that you (1) submit proposed changes to your technical specifications, within 30 days, that incorporate the requirements of the enclosed Model Technical Specifications, and (2) implement the above described procedures to assure compliance with your proposed changes within 30 days thereafter.
With i-egard to technical specification changes, we recognize that the terminology used in the enclosed Model Technical Specifications may not directly apply to plants witnout STS, therefore the OPERATIONAL MODE or C0dDITION definitions are also included in the enclosure.
If you do not have STS you should modify the terminology to make it consistent with your particular facility technical specifications.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
Sincerely, anL O.
