ENCLOSURE 212.121 Provioe a commitment to perform an in-plant test to demonstrate the adequacy of local manual action to operate stean generator power operated relief valves to satisfy cooldown requirements of BTP-RSB5-1 in the event that the non-safety grade remote operators or power supplies failed.
212.122 The response to RSB 5-1 indicates that RHR conditions may be achieved "in a reasonable amount of time." Specifically, what is the amount of time required to achieve RHR conditions assuming a worst single failure (including irreparable mechanical failures).
212.123 The response to RSB 5-1 has indicated that McGuire would reference natural circulation tests at other Westinghouse plants to satisfy the RSB 5-1.
Identify which tests will be referenced.
Justify, by plant comparativ's analyses, that tests at the referenced plant (s) are
)
l applicable to McGuire. Provide a commitment to perform the tests at McGuire during the first refueling outage in the event that the referenced tests either do not successfully justify natural circulation boration and cooling for,McGuire or are not available at that time.
212.124 The response to RSB 5-1 states that specific procedures for cooling down using natural circulation will be prepared prior to startup of the McGuire Plant.
Commit to providing these procedures when they are prepared.
i 212.125 Identify all valves needed to achieve or maintain cold shutdown which require an air supply.
Discuss air supply failures in these valves.
Identify operator actions which would be taken to overcome the failure and estimate the times required to perform the actions.
Discuss any time, environmental, or locational restraints imposed by reactor condi-tion or layout which might dictate additional time requirements.
212.126 When discussing removal of residual heat from 350 F to 2000F the response to RSB 5-1 identifies that RHR Suction Isolation Valves NDIA and N028 are aligned in series and that the spurious closure of either valve would prevent RHR operation.
Discuss alternative means of coo'idown which could be employed at McGuire in the event of a mechanical failure (closed) of either valve. Address the potential for repair and/or replacement of a valve.
