DNB. The minimum value of the DNBR during steady state opera-tion, normal operational transients, and anticipated tran- l sients is limited to 1.18. A DN8R of 1.18 corresponds to a j 95% probability at a 95% confidence level that DNB will not I occur, which is considered an appropriate margin to DNB for l all: operating conditions.(1). l l

. The curves of Figure-1-1 represent the loci' of points or re-  ;

actor thermal power (either neutron flux instruments or AT in- l struments), reactor coolant system pressure, and cold leg l temperature for which the ONBR is 1.18. The area of safe, opera- l tion is below these lines.

The reactor core safety limits are based on radial' peaks limit-ed by the CEA insertion limits in Section 2-10 and axial

  • shapes within the axial power _ distribution trip limits in i Figure 1-2 'and a total unrodded planar radial peak of 1.80. l. l The LSSS in Figure 1-3 is based on the assumption that the un-  !

rodded integrated total radial peak'(F ) is 1.80. .This peak- i ing factor is slightly higher (more ce servative) that the maximum predicted unrodded total radial peak during core life, excluding measurement uncertainty. i t

' ~(a) The curve in. Figure 2-3 shall be used to predict the increase in transition: temperature based on integrated fast neutron flux. If measurements on the irradiation a specimens indicate a deviation from this curve, a new >

curve shall be constructed..

(b) The; limit line on the figures shall be updated for_a new-integrated power period as follows: the total integrated ,

reactor thermal power from startup to the end of the new period shall be converted to an equivalent integrated fast neutron-exposure (Ell MeV), For this plant, based upon

-surveillance materials tests, weld chemical composition data,. and the effect of a reduced vessel fluence rate provided by core load designs beginning with fuel Cycle 8, i

the predicted surface fluence at the initial reactor vessel l

beltline weld material for 40 years at 1500 MWt and an 80%

load factor is 2.55x10 W n'/cm2 The flux reduction applied '

to the fluence calculations was based on Cycle 1-7 average and Cycle 8 average-azimuthal flux distribution plots generated used 00T 4.3. The predicted transition temperature l shift to the end of the new period shall then be'obtained from Figure 2-3.

(c) The limit-lines in Figures 2-1A and 2-1B'shall be moved parallel _to=the temperature axis (horizontal) in the direction of increasing temperature a distance' equivalent to the transition temperature shift during the period since the curves were last constructed. The hf Mp temperature limit line shall remain at 82*F as it is set by the NDTT of the reactor vessel flange and not subject to fast neutron flux. The lowest service temperature shall remain at 182 F because components related to this temperature are also not subject to fast neutron flux.

(d) The Technical Specification 2.3(3) shall be revised each time the curves of Figures 2-1A and 2-18 are revised.

Basis bl tup-All components in the reactor coolant system are designed to withstand the effects of cyclic andpressurechanges.dgadsduetoreactorcoolantsystemtemperature These cyclic loads are introduced by normal unit load transients, reactor trips and startup and shutdown operation.

During' unit startup and shutdown, the rate'sof temperature and pressure changes are-limited. The design nun.ber of cycles for heatup and cool-e down is based upon a rate of 100 F in any one hour period and for cyclic

of the turbine cycle feedvater system. In thc unlikely event 5 of complete loss of electrical power to the station, decay  ;

The two emergency diesel generators on site do not require outside power for start up or operation.

Upon loss of normal and standby power sources, the 4.16 kV buses lA3 and 1A4 are energited from the diesel generators. . Bus load shedding, trans-fer to the-diesel generator and pickup of critical loads are carried out automatically.(2)

When the turbine generator is out of service for an extended period, the

' generator can-be isolated by opening motor operated disconnect switch DS-T1 in the. bus between the generator and the main transformer,' allow-ing the main transformer and the unit auxiliary power transformers .co be returned to service. (3)

Equipment served by 4' 16 kV and 480 V auxiliary buses and MCC's is '

arranged so that loss of an entire 4.16 kV bus does not compromise safety of the plant during DBA conditions. For example, if 4.16 kV bus LA3 is lost, two raw water pumps, one low pressure safety injection pump, one -t high pressure safety injection pump, one auxiliary feedwater pump, two.

I component cooling water pumps, two containment spray pumps and two con-tainment air fans are lost. This leaves two raw water pumps, one low pressure safety injection pump, two high pressure safety injection pumps, one component cooling water pump, one containment spray pump and two con-tainment air fans which is mora than' sufficient to control cestainment pressure below the design value during the DBA.

1 L incident could occur during the refueling operations that would result in

- a hazard to public health and safety. (1) Whenever changes are not being made in core geometry one flux monitor is sufficient. This permits maintensnce of the. instrumentation. . Continuous monitoring of radiation l 1evels-and neutron flux prnvides immediate indication of an unsafe condi-L tion. The shutdown cooling pumo is used to maintain a unifera boron concentration.

The shutdown margin as indicated will keep the coreu s'beritical even if all CEA's were withdrawn from the core. Ooring refueling operations, the l reactor refue11ng cavity is filled with approximately 250.000 gallons of.

borated water. . Theboronconcentral%bnofthiswater (at least 1800 ppm  ;

boron) is sufficient to maintain the reactor suberitical by more than 5%, 1

~

including allowance for uncertainties, in the cold condition with all rods withdrawa.(2) Periodic checks of refueling water baron concentration ensure the proper shutdown margin. Communication requirements allow the o

control room operator to inform the refueling machine operator of any impending unsafe conditiun detected from the main control board indicators o during fuel movecent.

'In addition to the above engineered safety featuras,,interlocxs are utilized during refueling operations to ensure safe handling.- An excess

  • Wi ght interlock is provided on the lifting hoist to prevent movement of more tha one fuel assembly at a time. In addition, interlocks on the auxiliary building crane will prevent the trolley from being moved over storage rccks containing irradiated fuel, except as necessary for the handling of fuel.

The ventilation air for both the containment and the spent fuel pool area flows through absolute particulate filters-and radiation monitors before discharge at the ventilation discharge duct. In the event the stack discharge should indicate a release in excess of the limits in the technical specifications, the containment ventilation flow paths will be closed automatically and the auxiliary building ventilation flow paths will be closeo manually. In addition, the exhaust ventilation ductwork from the spent fuel storage area is equipped with a charcoal filter which will be manually put into operation wnenever irradiated fuel is being handled.(1)

- Analysis of the diesel generator loading scenario determined that the l

16,000 gallons of fuel- oil in the storage tank and the 550 gallons in the '

base tanks was sufficient under the required loading conditions to provide fuel for diesel operation for a minimum period of four days in lieu of the _

seven days that was stated in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR),

l An evaluation in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 was performed and the USAR l

. was changed to incorporate the new analysis. The changes ,to the bases section of Paragraph 2.7 of the Technical Specifications will insure consistency.between the Technical Specifications and the information given in the.USAR.

Pace 2-36, 2.7, Electrical Systems (continued)

This change is to update the Basis of Section 2.7 of the Technical Specifications to reflect the increased capacityrof the battery chargers  !

that has resulted from system modifications. The battery charger rating l

was changed from "200" amperes to "400" amperes. The change insures that  :

the basis of the Technical Specifications is consistent with information in the USAR.

The references to "FSAR" are changed to read "USAR' and reference (2) is changed to refer to a more applicable section of the USAR.

I Justification:

2 The Commission has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards for determining whether a si  !

exists by providing certain examples (gnificant hazards 48 FR 14870) consideration of amendments that are considered not likely to involve significant hazards i consideration.- Example (i) relates to a purely administrative change to the Technical Specifications: "for example, a change to achieve consistency throughout the Technical Specifications, correction of an

-error, or change in nomenclature." The proposed chan to Example (i) and are purely administrative changes.ges are similar g Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration:

This proposed change does not involve significant hazards i consideration because operation of Fort Calhoun Station in accordance l with this change would not:

1. Involve a significant increase in the probability or

- consequence of an accident previously evaluated, This change contains only administrative and typographical corrections.

This change should eliminate confusion and thus decrease the probability of human errors associated with accidents previously evaluated.

2. Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated. This change contains only administrative and typographical corrections. No new or different modes of operation are proposed for the ' plant.
3. Involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety. -

This change contains only administrative and typographical corrections and, as such, does not result in a decrease in the margin of- safety.

Therefore, based on the above considerations, Omaha Public Power District has determined that this change does not involve a significant hazards consideration.

would cause DNB at a particular core location to the actual heat flux at that location, is indicative of the margin to DNB. The minimum value of the DNBR during steady state opera-tion, normal operational transients, and anticipated tran-sients is limited to 1.18. A DNBR of 1.18 corresponds to a 95% probability at a 95% confidence level that DNB will not  ;

occur, which is considered an appropriate margin to DNB for all operating conditions.(1)

The curves of Figure 1-1 represent the loci of points or re-actor thermal power (either neutron flux instruments or AT in-struments), reactor coolant system pressure, and cold leg temperature for which the CNBR is 1.18. The area of safe opera-  !

tion is below these lines.

The reactor core safety limits are based on radial peaks limit-ed by the CEA insertion' limits in Section 2-10 and axial '

shapes within the axial power distribution trip limits in Figure 1-2 and a total unrodded planar radial peak of 1.80. l The LSSS in Figure 1-3 is based on the assumption that the un-rodded integrated total radial peak-(F ) is 1.80. This peak-

, ing factor is slightly higher (more co servative) that the maximum predicted unrodded total radial peak during core life, excluding measurement uncertainty.

Flow maldistribution effects for operation under less than full reactor coolant flow have oeen evaluated via model fo m 7 ;t::t.(2) Yhe flow model data established the maldistribution

  • factors and hot channel inlet temperature for the thermal l

analyses that were used to establish the safe operating enve--

lopes presented in Figure 1-1. The reactor protective system is designed to prevent any ~an;icipated combination of tran-sient conditions for reactor :colant system temperature, pres-sure, and thermal power leve', that would result in a DNBR of less than 1.18.(3)

2.1 Reactor Coolant System (Continued) 2.1.2 Heatup and Cooldown Rate (Continued)

(a) The curve in Figure 2-3 shall be used to predict the increase in transition temperature based on integrated fast neutron flux. If measurements on the irradiation specimens indicate a deviation from this curve, a new  ;

curve shall be constructed.

(b) The limit line on the figures shall be updated for a new integrated power period as follows: the total integrated reactor thermal power from startup to the end of the new period shall be converted to an equivalent integrated fast neutron exposure (Ei:1 MeV), For this plant, based upon surveiilance materials tests, weld chemical composition data, and the effect of a reduced vessel fluence rate provided by core load designs beginning with fuel Cycle 8, the predicted surface fluence at the initial reactor vessel beltline weld material for 40 years at 1500 MWt and an 80%

load factor is 2.55x1019 n7cm2 The flux reduction applied to the fluence calculations was base'd on Cycle 1-7 average and Cycle 8 average azimuthal flux distribution plots generated used 00T 4.3. The predicted transition temperature shift to the end of the new period shall then be obtained from Figure 2-3.

(c) The limit lines in Figures 2-1A and 2-1B shall be moved parallel to the temperature axis (horizontal) in the ,

direction of increasing temperature a distance equivalent to the transition temperature shift during the period since the curves were last constructed. The teiM;' temperature limit line shall remain at 82 F as it is set by the NDTT of the reactor vessel flange and not subject to fast neutron flux. The lowest service temperature shall remain at 182 F because components related to this temperature are also not subject to fast neutron flux.

(d) The Technical Specification 2.3(3) shall be revised each time the curves of Figures 2-1A and 2-18 are revised.

Basis bdlY. tap-All components in the reactor coolant system are designed to withstand the effects of cyclicgads due to reactor coolant system temperature and pressure changes These cyci'ic loads are introduced by normal unit load transients, reactor trips and startup and shutdown operation.

During unit startup and shutdown, the rates of temperature and pressure changes are limited. The design number of cycles for heatup and cool-down is based upon a rate of 100 F in any one hour period and for cyclic operation.

[~ Specifications

~

a bo v e The reactor coolant shall not be heated about 300 F unless the following conditions are met:

(1) Eoth auxiliary feedvater pumps are operable. One of the i auxiliary feedvater pumps may be inoperable for 2h hours provided that the redundant component shall be tested to l demonstrate operability, t (2) A minimum of 55,000 gallons of water in the emergency I feedvater storage tank and a backup water supply to the emergency feedvater storage tank from the Missouri River by the fire water system.

(3)

All valves, interlocks and piping associated with the i above components required to function during accident j conditions are operable. Manual valves that could inter- l rupt auxiliary feedvater flow to the steam generators  !

shall be locked in the required position to ensure a  !

flev path to the steam generators.

(L) 3.e main steam stop valves are operable and capable of closing in four seconds or less under no-flow conditions. 3 Easis A reactor shutdown from power requires a removal of core decay heat. Immediate decay heat removal requirements are normally satisfied by the steam bypass to the condenser. Therefore, core decay heat can be continuously dissipated via the steam bypass to the condenser as long as feedvater to the steam generator is available. Normally, the capability to supply feedvater to the steam generators is provided by operation of the turbine cycle feedvater system. In the unlikely event of complete loss of electrical power to the station, decay heat removal is by steam discharge to the atmosphere via the main steam safety and atmospheric dump valves. Either auxi-liary feedvater pump can supply sufficient feedvater for re-moval of decay heat from the plant. The minimum amount of water in the emergency feedvater storage tank is the amount needed for 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> of such operation.

The two emergency diesel generators on site do not require outside power for start up or operation.

. Upon loss of normal and standby power sources, the 4.16 kV buses 1A3 and 1A4 are energi:ed from the diesel generators. Bus load shedding, trans-fer to the diesel generator and pickup of critical loads are carried out automatically.(2)

When the turbine generator is.out of service for an extended period, the

' generator can be isolated by opening motor operated disconnect switch ,

-DS-T1 in the bus between the generator and the main transformer, allow- i ing the main transformer and the unit auxiliary power transformers to be returned to service.(3)

Equip =ent served by 4.16 kV and 480 V auxiliary buses and MCC's is arranged so that loss of an entire 4.16 kV bus does not compromise safety of the plant during DBA conditions. For example, if 4.16 kV bus 1A3 is  ;

lost, two raw water pumps, one low pressure safety injection pump, one -'

high pressure safety injection pump, one auxiliary feedwater pump, two f- component cooling water pumps, two containment spray pumps and two con-tainment air fans are lost. This leaves two raw water pumps, one low pressure safety injection pump, two high pressure safety injection pumps, one component cooling water pump, one containment spray pump and two con-tainment air fans which is more than sufficient to control containment 3 pressure below the design value during the DBA.

incident could occur during the refueling operations that would result in  !

a hazard to public health and safety.(1) Whenever changes are not being l made in core geometry one flux monitor is sufficient. This permits i

maintenance of the instrumentation. . Continuous monitoring of radiation '

levels and neutron flux provides immediate indication of an unsafe condi- <

tion. The shutdown cooling pump is used to maintain a unifom boron '

concentration. .

1 The shutdown margin as indicated will keep the core suberitical even if 1 all CEA's were withdrawn from the core. During refueling operations, the reactor refueling cavity is filled with approximately 250,000 gallons of l borated water. The boron concentraltion of this water (at least 1800 ppm boron) is sufficient to maintain the reactor suberitical by more than 5%,

, including allowance for uncertainties, in the cold condition with all rods withdrawn.(2) Periodic checks of refueling water boron concentration ensure the proper shutdown margin. Communication requirements allow the control room operator to inform the refueling machine operator of any impending unsafe condition detected from the main control board indicators during fuel movement.

In addition to the above engineered safety features, interlocks are utilized during refueling operations to ensure safe handling. An excess weight interlock is provided on the lifting hoist to prevent movement of more than one fuel assembly at a time. In addition, interlocks on-the auxiliary building crane will. prevent the trolley from being moved over-storage racks containing irradiated fuel, except as necessary for the handling of fuel. The restriction of not moving fuel in the reactor for a period of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> after the power has been removed from the core takes advantage of the decay-of the short half-life fission products and allows l

for any failed fuel to purge itself of fission gases, thus reducing the consequences of fuel handling accident.

l_ The ventilation air for both the containment and the spent fuel pool area

! flows through absolute particulate filters and radiation monitors before discharge at the ventilation discharge duct. In the event the stack discharge should indicate a release in excess of the limits in the technical specifications, the containment ventilation flow paths will be closed automatically and the auxiliary building ventilation flow paths l will be closed manually. In addition, the exhaust ventilation ductwork I from the spent fuel storage area is equipped with a charcoal filter which will be manually put into operation whenever irradiated fuel is being handled.(1)

Basis The limitation on linear heat rate ensures that in the event of a LOCA, the ,

peak temperature of the fuel cladding will not exceed 2200*F.

i Either of the two core power distribution monitoring systems, the Excore Detec-i ter Monitoring System, or the Incore Detector Monitoring System, provide adequate monitoring of the core power distribution and are capable of verifying.

that the ' linear heat rate does not exceed its limit. The Excore Detector Monitoring System performs this function by continuously monitoring the axial shape index with the operable quadrant symmetric excore neutron flux detectors l and verifying that the axial shape 'index is maintained within the allowable limits of Figure 2-6 'as adjusted by Specification 2.10.4(1)(c) for the allowed l linear heat rate of Figure 2-5, RC Pump configuration, and F T of Figure 2-9.

i In conjunction with the use of the excore monitoring system Ed in establishing l the axial shape index limits, the following assumptions are made: (1) the CEA

l. insertion limits of Specification 2.10.1(6) and long term insertion limits of Specification 2.10.1.(7) are satisfied, (2) the flux peaking augmentation factors are as shown in Figure 2-8, and (3) the total planar radial peaking factor does not exceed the limits of Specification 2.10.4(3).

" Limit not applicable during either a thermal power ramp in excess of 5% of

, rated thermal power per minute or a thermal power step of greater than 10%

of rated thermal power.

    • This number is an actual limit and corresponds to an indicated flow rate of -

202,500 gpm. All other values in this listing are indicated values and include an allowance for measurement uncertainty (e.g., 543*F, indicated, allows for an actual T of 545'F.

      • The AXIAL SHAPE INDEX.C Core power shall be maintained within the limits .

l: established by the Better Axial Shape Selection System (BASSS) for CEA l- insertion of the lead bank of < 6S% when BASSS is operable, or within L the limits of Figure 2-7.

3.0' SURVEILLANCE REOUIREMENTS 3.9 Auxiliary Feedwater System (Continued)-

Basis

, The valve position verifications performed monthly and following auxiliary feedwater system maintenance will confirm the avail-ability of an auxiliary feedwater flow path to the steam generators.

The testing of tne auxiliary feedwater pumps every month and after cold shutdowns will-verify their operability by recirculating water to the emergency feedwater storage tank.

Operating the regulating valves (HCV-1107A, HCV-1107B, HCV-1108A and HCV-110SB) one at a time every three months and af ter cold shutdowns will confirm a flow path to the steam generators and operability of the valves. ,

Proper functioning of the steam turbine admission valve and starting of the feedwater pump will demonstrate the integrity of the steam i driven pump. Verification of correct operation will be made both j from instrumentation within the main centrol room and direct visual  !

observation of the pumps, j

e o Discussion, Justification and No Significant Hazards Consideration Description of Typographical and Administrative Corrections This request for amendment of the Technical Specifications addresses several administrative and typographical errors. A brief discussion of each follows:

Paae viii, TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS - FIGURES, TABLE OF CONTENTS The change corrects two column labels by changing'the word " TABLE" to <

" FIGURE". The location reference for Figure "1-3" is corrected to read Page "1-6".

Pace 1-2, 1.1, Safety Limits - Reactor Core (continued)

The word " test" in the last paragraph is corrected to read " tests", i References (1) and (3) are changed to reflect a section of the current version of the Updated Safety Analysis Report that is a more applicable reference.

Pace 2-4, 2.1.2, Heatup and Cooldown Rate (continued), Paragraph (c).

The word "boilup" is changed to read "boltup".

Pace 2-28, 2.5, Steam and Feedwater Systems; The word "about" is changed to read "above".

Paae 2-29, References.

The references to "FSAR" is changed to read "USAR".

Paae'2-34, Electrical Systems Analysis of the diesel generator loading scenario determined that the 16,000 gallons of fuel oil in the storage tank and the 550 gallons in the base tanks was sufficient under the required loading conditions to provide fuel for diesel- operation for a minimum period of four days in lieu of the seven days that was stated in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR).

An evaluation in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 was performed and the USAR was changed to incorporate the new analysis. The changes.to the bases section of Paragraph 2.7 of the Technical Specifications will insure consistency between .the Technical Specifications and the information given in the USAR.

Paae 2-36, 2.7, Electrical Systems (continued)

This change is to update the Basis of Section 2.7 of the Technical Specifications to reflect the increased capacity of the battery chargers that has resulted from system modifications. The battery charger rating was changed from "200" amperos to "400" amperes. The change insures that '

the basis of the Technical Specifications is consistent with information in the USAR.

The references to "FSAR" are changed to read "USAR' and reference (2) is changed to refer to a more applicable section of the USAR.

Paae 2-39, Refueling Operations (continued)

This change corrects a typographical error in the word " concentration".

References to "FSAR" are changed to "USAR" and reference (2) is changed to refer.to a more applicable section of the USAR.

Paae 2-57c, 2.10.4(5) Power Distribution Limits Should read ". . . Above 15% sf Rated Power" - typographical error.

Paae 2-59, 2.12(4), Control Room Systems, Control Room Air Treatment This administrative change clarifies the control room air treatment operability requirements by replacing the legalese statement with the words from the standard technical specifications.

Paae 2-98, Table 2-10, Post-Accident Monitoring Instrumentation Operating Limits This change corrects a typographical error, form "LT-559" to "LT-599", in item 5 of the Table.

Fiaure 2-8, Flux Peaking Augmentation Factor This change adds the Amendment number which is not legible.

Table 3-1, Minimum Frequency for Checks, Calibrations and Testing of Reactor Protective Systems.

This change adds " Amendment 60", which was omitted from the page.

! Pace 3-62a, 3.9 Basis The temperature and operating conditions were changed to agree with the USAR, Section 9.3.1, and accurately reflect the design basis of the l shutdown cooling system, i

l~ Pace 5-3, 5.5.1.2 The title " Plant Chemist" is changed to " Supervisor - Chemistry" to conform with present station organization.

Pace 5-12, 5.9.2(c)

The word " arrive" is changed to "be postmarked" to provide a more definitive requirement for submittal of the Monthly Operating Report and provide sufficient time for preparation and processing of the Monthly Operating Report.

Justification:.

The Commission has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards for determining whether a significant hazards consideration-exists by providing certain examples (48 FR 14870) of amendments that are considered not likely to involve significant hazards consideration. Example (i) relates to a purely administrative change i to the Technical Specifications: "for example, a change to achieve consistency throughout the Technical Specifications, correction of an error, or change in nomenclature." The proposed changes are similar j to Example (i) and are purely administrative changes.

Basis for No Significant Hazards. Consideration: l This proposed change does not involve significant hazards consideration because operation of Fort Calhoun Station in accordance  ;

with this change would not: l

1. Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequence of an accident previously evaluated. This change contains only administrative and typographical corrections.

This change should eliminate confusion and thus decrease the probability of human errors associated with accidents previously evaluated.

2.. Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated. This change contains only administrative and typographical corrections. No new or different modes of operation are proposed for the plant.

3. Involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety.

This change contains only administrative and typographical corrections and, as such, does not result in a decrease in the margin of safety.

Therefore,. based on the above considerations, Omaha Public Pcwer District has determined that this change does not involve a significant hazards consideration.
