3/4-1 REACTIVITY CONTROL' SYSTEMS-BASES j 3/4.1.1 BORATION CONTROL [- 3/4.1.1.1 and 3/4.1.1.2 SHUTDOWN MARGIN ~ 4-l A sufficient SHUTOOWN MARGIN ensures that 1) the reactor can be made subcritical from all operating conditions, 2) the reactivity transients associated with postulated accident conditions are controllable within acceptable limits, and 3) the reactor will be maintained sufficiently subcritical to preclude inadvertent-criticality in the shutdown condition. SHUT 00WN MARGIN requirements vary throughout core life as a function of fuel depletion, RCS boron concentration and RCS T The minimum available SHUTDOWN MARGIN for no load operating conditions $E9beginning of life is 4.1% ak/k and at end of life is 4.3% ak/k. The SHUTDOWN MARGIN is based on the safety analyses performed for a steam line rupture event initiated at no load conditions. The most restrictive steam line rupture event occurs at E0C conditions. For the steam line. rupture event at beginning of cycle conditions, a minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN of less than 4.1% ak/k is required to. control the reactivity transient, and end of cycle conditions require 4.3% ak/k. Accordingly, theSHUT00WNMARGINrequirementisbaseduponthislimitingconditjonandis consistent.with FSAR safety analysis assumptions. With T < 200 F, the reactivity transients resulting from any postulated accid 8d are minimal and a 3% ak/k shutdown margin provides adequate protection. With the pressurizer level less than 90 inches, the sources of non-borated water are restricted to increase the time to criticality during a boron dilution event. 3/4.1.1.3 BORON DILUTION. A minimum flow rate of at least 3000 GPM provides adequate mixing, prevents stratification and ensures that reactivity changes will be gradual during boron concentration reductions in the Reactor Coolant System. A flow rate of at least 3000 GPM will circulate an equivalent ' Reactor C;olant System volume of 9,601 cubic feet in approximately 24 minutes. The reactivity change rate associated with baron concen-tration reductions will therefore be within the capability of operator recognition and contrcl. 3/4.1.1.4 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (MTC) The limitations on MTC are provided to ensure that the assumptions used in the accident and transient analyses remain valid through each fuel cycle. The surveillance requirements for measurement of the MTC jduringeachfuelcycleareadequatetoconfirmtheMTCvaluesincethis coefficient changes slowly due principally to the reduction in RCS boron concentration associated with fuel'burnup. The confirmation that the measured MTC value is within its limit provides assurances that the coefficient will be maintained within acceptable values throughout each fuel cycle.

REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS-BASES 13/4.1.1.5 MINIMUM TEMPERATURE FOR CRITICALITY This specification ensures that the reactor will not be made crijicalwiththeReactorCoolantSystemaveragetemperaturelessthan 515 F. This limitation is required to ensure 1) the moderator temperature coefficient is within its analyzed temperature range, 2) the pre.ective -instrumentation is within its normal operating range, 3) the pressurizer is capable of being-in an OPERABLE status with a steam bubble, and 4) the reactor pressure vessel is above its minimum RT tempenture. NOT 3/4.1. 2 BORATION SYSTEMS The. boron injection system ensures that negative reactivity control is available during each mode of facility operation. The components required to perform this function include 1) borated water sources, 2) charging pumps, 3) separate flow paths, 4) boric acid pumps, 5) associated heat tracing systems, and 6) an emergency power supply from OPERABLE diesel generators. 0 With the RCS average temperature above 200 F, a minimum of two separate and redundant'bcron injection systems are provided to ensure single functional capability in the event an assumed failure renders one of the systems inoperable. Allowable out-of-service periods ensure that minor component repair or corrective action may be completed without undue risk to overall facility safety from injection system failures during the repair period. The boration capability of either system is sufficient to provide a ~ SHUTOOWN MARGIN from all gperating conditions of 3.0% ak/k after xenon decay and cooldown to 200 F. The maximum boration capability requirement occurs at EOL from full power equilibrium xenon conditions and requires 6500 gallons of 7.25% boric acid solution from the boric acid tanks or 55,627, gallons of 2300 ppm borated water from the refueling water tank. However, to be consistent with the ECCS requirements, the RWT is required to have a minimum contained volume of 400,000 gallons during MODES 1, 2, 3 and 4. The maximum boron concentration of the refueling water tank shall be limited to 2700 ppm and the maximum boron concentra-tion of the boric acid storage tanks shall be limited to 8% to preclude the possibility of coron precipitation in the core during long term ECCS cooling. With the RCS temperature below 200 F, one injection system is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable' reactivity condition of the reactor and the additional restric-tions prohibiting CORE ALTERATIONS and positive reactivity change in the event the single injection system becomes inoperable.

3/4.2 POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS BASES 3/4.2.1 LINEAR HEAT RATE 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. Either of the two core power distribution monitoring systems, the Excore Detector Monitoring System and the Incore Detector Monitoring System, provide adequate monitoring of the core power distribution ar.d are capable of verifying that the linear heat rate does not exceed its 1;mits. The Excore Detector Monitoring System performs this function by continu-ously monitoring the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX with the OPERABLE quadrant symmetric excore neutron flux detectors and verifying that the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX is maintained within the allowable limits of Figure 3.2-2. In conjunction with the use of the excore monitoring system and in establishing the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX limits, the following assumptions are made: 1) the CEA insertion limits of Specifications 3.1.3.5 and 3.1.3.6 are satisfied, 2) the flux peaking augmentation factors are as shown in Figure 4.2-1, 3} the AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT restrictions of Specification 3.2.4 are satisfied, and
- 4) the TOTAL PLANAR RADIAL PEAKING FACTOR does not exceed the limits of Specification 3.2.2.
The Incore Detector Monitoring System continuously provides a direct measure of the peaking factors and the alarms which have been established for the individual incore detector segments ensure that the peak linear heat rates will be maintained within the allowable limits of Figure 3.2-1. The setpoints for these alarms include allowances, set in the conservative directions, for 1) flux peaking augmentation factors as shown in Figure 4.2-1, 2) a measurement-calculational uncertainty factor of 1.070, 3) an l engineering uncertainty factor of 1.03, 4) an allowance of 1.01 for axial fuel densification and thennal expansion, and 5) a THERMAL POWER measurement uncertainty factor of 1.02. 1 3/4.2.2, 3/4.2.3 ard 3/4.2.4 TOTAL PLANAR AND INTEGRATED RADIAL PEAKING FACTORS - Fh AND Ff AND AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT - T y T The limitations on F and T are provided to ensure that the assump-tions used in the analysis # or esEablishing the Linear Heat Rate and Local f Power Density - High LCOs and LSSS setpoints remain valid during operation af the various allowable CEA group insertion limits.

I A single reactor coolant loop with it's' steam generator filled above the low level ~ trip setpoint provides sufficient heat removal capability'for core ~ cooling while in MODES 2 and 3; however. single failure considerations require plant shutdown if component repairs and/or corrective actions cannot be made within the allowable.out-of-service time. - 3, In MODES 4 and 5, a single reactor coolant loop or shutdosn _ cooling. loop i provides ' sufficient heat removal capatility for removing decay heat; but. single failure considerations require that at least two loops be.0PERABLE. Thus, if a ] the reactor coolant loops are.not OPERABLE.; this specification requires two_ shutdown. cooling loops to be OPERABLE. The operation of one Reactor Coolant Pump or one shutdown cooling pump provides adequate flow'to ensure mixing, prevent stratification and produce gradual reactivity changes during baron concentration reductions in the Reactor Coolant ~ System. The' reactivity change rate associated with boron reductions l will, therefore, be. within the capability of operator recognition and control. The restrictions on starting a Reactor Coolant Pump during MODES 4 and 5 i, with one or more RCS cold legs < 275 F_ are provided to prev *nt RCS pressure transients,' caused by energy adifitions.from the secondary system, which could exceed the limits of Appendix G to 10 CFR-Part 50. The' RCS will be protected against overpressure transients and will not exceed the limits of Appendix G by either.-(l) restricting the water volume in the pressurizer and thereby t' providing' a volume for.the primary coolant to expand into or (2) by restrict-ing starting of the.RCPs to wheg the gecondary water temperature ofceach steam generator.-is less than 46 F (34.F when meas' red by a surface contact u t l instrument) above the coolant: temperature in the reactor ves'sel. J 3/4.4.2 SAFETY VALVES The pressurizer code safety valves operate to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above igs Safety Limit of 2750 psia. Each safety valve is designed l to relieve 7.6 x 10 lbs per hour of saturated steam at the valve setpoint. The relief capacity _of a single safety valve is adequate to relieve any overpressure condition which could occur during shutdown. In the event that no safety valves i are OPERABLE, an operating shutdown cooling loop, connected to the RCS, provides overpressure: relief capability and will prevent RCS overpressurization. During operation.all~ pressurizer code safety valves must be OPERABLE to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above its safety limit of 2750 psia.- The combined relief capacity of these valves is sufficient to CALVERT CLIFFS .

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES limit the Reactor Coolant System pressure to within its Safety Limit of 2750 psia following a complete loss of turbir.e generator load while operat-ing at MTED THERMAL POWER and assuming no reactor trip until the first Reactor Protective System trip setpoint.(Pressurizer Pressure-High) is reached (i.e., no credit is taken for a direct reactor trip on the loss of turbine) and also assuming no operation of the pressurizer power operated relief valve or. steam dump valves.. Demonstration of the safety valves' lift settings will occur only during shutdown and will be performed in accordance with the provisions of .Scction XI of the ASME Boiler and ?ressure Vessel Code. 3/4.4.3 RELIEF VALVES The power operated relief valves (PORVs) operate to relieve RCS pressure ~ below the setting of the pressurizer code safety valves. These relief valves have remotely operated block valves to provide a positive shutoff capability should a relief valve become inoperable. The electrical power for both the relief valves and the block valves is capable of being supplied from an emergency power source to ensure the ability to seal this possible RCS leak-age path. 3/4.4.4 PRESSURIZER A steam bubble in the pressurizer with the level as programmed ensures that the RCS is not a hydraulically solid system and is capable o. 'ccommo-dating pressure surges during operation. The' programmed level alsu protects the pressurizer code safety valves and power operated relief valve against water relief. The power operated relief valves function to relieve RCS pressure during all design transients. Operation of the power operated relief valve in conjunction with a reactor trip on a Pressurizer--Pressure-High signal, minimizes the undesirable opening of the spring-loaded pressurizer code safety valves. The requirement.that 150 kw of pressurizer heaters and their associated l controls be capable of being supplied electrical power from an emergency bus provides assurance that these heaters can be energized during a loss of off-site power condition to maintain natural circulation at HOT STANDBY. 3/4.4.5 STEAM GENERATORS. The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam generato, tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained.

3/4.9 REFUELING OPERATIONS i BASES l 3/4.9.1 BORON CONCENTRATION The limitations on minimum boron concentrattu.. (2300 ppm) ensure that: l
- 1) the reactor.will remain subcritical during CORE ALTERATIONS, and 2) a uniform boron concentration is maintained for reactivity control in the water volumes having direct access to the reactor vessel. The limitation on K
of no greater than 0.95 which includes a conservative allowance for ubrtainties, is sufficient to prevent reactor criticality during refueling operations. 3/4.9.2 INSTRUMENTATION, -The OPERABILITY of the source range neutron flux monitors ensures that redundant monitoring capability is available to detect changes in the reactivity. condition of the ccre. 3/4.9.3 DECAY TIME The minimum requirement for reactor subcriticality prior to movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the reactor pressure vessel ensures that sufficient time has elapsed to allow the radioactive decay of the short lived fission products. This decay time is contristent with sie assumptions used in the accident analyses. 3/4.9.4 CONTAINMENT PENETRATIONS The requirements on containment peatration closure and OPERABILITY ensure that a release of radioactive material within containment will be ~ restricted from leakage to the environment. The OPERABILITY and closure i restricti*ons are sufficient to restrict radioactive material release I from a fuel element rupture based upon the lack of containment pressur-ization potential while in the REFUELING MODE. 3/4.9.5 COMMUNICATIONS The requirement for communications capability ensures that refueling l L station personnel can be promptly informed of significant changes in the facility status or core reactivity condition during CORE ALTERATIONS.

REFUELING OPERATIONS BASES' 3/4.9.6 REFUELING MACHINE OPERABILITY The OPERABILITY requirements for the refueling machine ensure that: (1) the refueling machine will be used for movement of CEAs and fuel assemblies, (2) the refueling machine has sufficient load capacity to lift a CEA nr fuel assembly,. and (3) the core internals and pressure vessel are protected from excessive lifting force in the event they are inadvertently engaged during lifting operations. 3/4.9.7 CRANE TRAVEL - SPENT FUEL STORAGE BUILDING The restriction on movement of loads in excess of t.e m.*m.' weight of a fuel assembly'and CEA over other fuel assemblies in the storage pool ensures that in the event this load is dropped (1) the activity release will be limited to that contained in a single fuel assembly, and (2) any possible * 'tortion of fuel in the storage racks will not result in a critical array. Tn!s assumption is consistent with the activity release assumed in the accident analyses. 3/4.9.8 COOLANT CIRCULATION The requirement that at least one shutdown cooling loop be in operation ensures that (1) sufficient cooling capacity is available to repve decay heat and maintain the water in the reactor pressure vessel below 140 F as required during the REFUELING MODE, and (2) sufficient coolant circulation is maintained through the reactor core to minimize the effects of a boron dilution incident and prevent boron stratification. The requirement to have two shutdown cooling loops OPERABLE when there is less than 23 feet of water above the core ensures that a single failure of the operating shutdown cooling loop will not result in a complete loss of decay heat removal capability. With the reactor vessel head removed and 23 feet of water above the core, a large heat sink is available for core cooling, thus in the event of a failure of the operating ~ shutdown cooling loop, adequate time is provided to initiate emergency procedures to cool the core. l 3/4.9.9 CONTAINMENT PURGE VALVE ISOLATION SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of this system ensures that the containment purge valves will be automatically isolated upon detection of high radiation levels within the containment.

1 l ~ 3/4.2 POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS BASES 3 /4. 2.-l LINEAR HEAT RATE 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. Either of the two core power _ distribution monitoring systems, the Excore Detector Monitoring' System and 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 limits. The Excore Detector Monitoring System performs' this -function by continu-ously monitoring the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX with the OPERABLE quadrant symmetric excore neutron flux detectors and verifying that the AXIAL SHAPF INDEX is maintained within the allowable limits of Figure 3.2-2. In conjunction with the use of.the excore monitoring system and in establishing the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX limits, the following assumptions are made:
- 1) the CEA insertion limits of Specifications 3.1.3.5 and 3.1.3.6 are satisfied, 2) the flux peaking augmentation factors are as shown in Figure 4.2-1, 31 the AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT' restrictions of Specification 3.2.4 are satisfied, and
- 4) the TOTAL PLANAR RADIAL PEAKING FACTOR does not exceed the limits of Specification 3.2.2.
The Incore Detector Monitoring System continuously provides a direct measure of the peaking factors and the alarms which have been establi5hed for. the individual incore detector segments ensure that the peak linear heat rates will be maintained within the allowable limits of Figure 3.2-1. The setpoints for these alarms include 1110wances, set in the conservative ~ directions, for 1) flux peaking augmenta+. ion factors as shown in Figure 4.2-1, 2) a measurement-calculational uncetainty factor of 1.070, 3) an l engineering uncertainty factor of 1.03, 4) an allowance of 1.01 for axial l fuel densification and thennal expansion, and 5) a THERMAL POWER measurement j uncertainty factor of 1.02. 3/4.2.2. 3/4.2.3 and 3/4.2.4 TOTAL PLANAR AND INTEGRATED RADI AL PEAKING FACTORS - Fh AND F AND AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT - T T 7 q T The limitations on F and T are provided to ensure that the assump-Y tions used in the analysis for eslablishing the Linear Heat Rate and Local Power Density - High LCOs and LSSS setpoints remain valid during operation af the various allowable CEA group insertion limits.

3/4.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES. 3/4.4.1 COOLANT LOOPS AND COOLANT CIRCULATION The plant is designed to operate with both reactor coolant loops and associated reactor coolant pumps in operation, and maintain DNBR above 1.195 l during all normal operations and anticipated transients. A single reactor coolant loop with its steam generator filled above the low level trip setpoint provides sufficient heat removal capability for core cooling while in MODES 2 and 3; however, single failure considerations require plant shutdown if component repairs and/or corrective actions cannot be made within the allowable out-of-service time. In MODES 4 and 5, a single reactor coolant loop or shutdown cooling loop provides sufficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat; but single failure considerations require that at least two loops be OPERABLE. Thus, if the reactor coolant loops are not OPERABLE, this specification requires two shutdown cooling loops.to be 0PERABLE. The operation of one Reactor Coolant Pump or one shutdown cooling pump provides adequate flow to ensure mixing, prevent. stratification and produce gradual reactivity changes during boron concentration reductions in the Reactor Coolant System. The reactivity change rate associated with boron reductions will, therefore, be within the capability of operator recognition and control. The restrictions on starting a Reactor Coolant Pump during MODES 4 and 5 with one or more _RCS cold legs 1275 F are provided to prevent RCS pressure transients, caused by energy additions from the secondary system, which could exceed the limits of Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50. The RCS' will be protected against overpressure transients and will not exceed the limits of Appendix G by either (1) restricting the water volume-in the pressurizer and thereby providing a volume for the primary coolant to expand into or (2) by restrict-ing starting of the RCPs to wheg the gecondary water temperature of each steam generator is less than 46 F (34 F when measured by a surface contact instrument) above the coolant temperature in the reactor vessel. 3/4.4.2 SAFETY VALVES The pressurizer code safety valves operate to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above igs Safety Limit of 2750 psia. Each safety valve is designed to relieve 7.6 x 10 lbs per hour of saturated steam at the valve setpoint. The relief capacity of a single safety valve is adequate to relieve any overpressure condition which could occur during shutdown. In the event that no safety valves are OPERABLE, an operating shutdown cooling loop, connected to the RCS, provides ove; pressure relief capability and will prevent RCS overpressurization. During operation, all pressurizer code safety valves must be OPERABLE to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above its safety limit of 2750 psia. The combined relief capacity of these valves is sufficient to CALVERT CLIFFS - UNIT 1 Amendment No. 34, 53, 55 CALVERT CLIFFS - UNIT 2 B 3/4 4-1 Amendment No. 78, 36, 38 ~.-.
REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES limit the Reactor Coolant System pressure to within its Safety Limit of 2750 psia following a complete loss' of turbine generator load while operat-ing at RATED THERMAL POWER and assuming no _ reactor trip until the first-Reactor Protective System trip setpoint (Pressurizer Pressure-High) is reached (i.e., no. credit is taken for a direct reactor trip on the loss of turbine) and also assuming no operation of the pressurizer power operated relief valve or steam dump valves.. Demonstration of the safety valves' lift settings will occur only during shutdown and will be performed in accordance with the provisions of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. 3/4.4.3 RELIEF VALVES The power operated relief valves (PORVs) operate to relieve RCS pressure below the setting of the pressurizer code safety valves. These relief valves have remotely operated block valves to provide a positive shutoff capability should a relief valve become. inoperable. The electrical power for both the relief valves and the block valves is capable of being supplied from an emergency power source to ensure the ability to seal this possible RCS leak- ~ age path. 3/4.4.4 PRESSURIZER.- A steam bubble in the pressurizer with the level as programmed ensures that the RCS is not a. hydraulically solid system and is capable of accommo-dating pressure surges during operation. The programmed level also protects the pressurizer code safety valves and power operated relief valve against water relief. The power operated relief valves function to relieve RCS pressure during all design transients. Operation of the power operated relief valve in conjunction with a reactor trip on a Pressurizer--Pressure-High signal, minimizes the undesirable opening of the spring-loaded pressurizer code safety valves. The requirement.that 150 kw of pressurizer heaters and their associated controls be capable of being supplied electrical power from an emergency bus provides assurance that these heaters can be energized during a loss of off-site power condition to maintain natural circulation at H0T STANDBY. 3/4.4.5 STEAM GENERATORS The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained. The program for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to CALVERT CLIFFS - UNIT 1 B 3/4 4-2 Amendment No. M, 53 CALVERT CLIFFS - UNIT 2 Amendment No. M, 36
~ l 3/4.9 REFUELING OPERATIONS BASES 3/4.9.1 B0RON' CONCENTRATION' The limitations on minimum boron concentration (2300 ppm) ensure that: l 'l) the reactor will remain subcritical during CORE ALTERATIONS, and 2) a uniform baron concentration is maintained for reactivity control in the water volumes having direct access to the reactor vessel. The limitation on K . of no greater than 0.95 which includes a conservative allowance for ~ u8[$rtainties, is sufficient to prevent reactor criticality during refueling operations. 3/4.9.2: INSTRUMENTATION . The OPERABILITY of the source range neutron flux monitors ensures that redundant monitoring capability is available to detect changes ir. the reactivity condition of the core. 3/4.9.3 DECAY TIME The minimu:n requirement for reactor subcriticality prior to movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the reactor pressure vessel ensures that sufficient time has elapsed to allow the radioactive decay of the short lived fission products. This decay time is cons-istent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses. 3/4.9.4 CONTAINMENT PENETRATIONS The requirements on containment penetration closure and OPE'RABILITY ensure that a release of radioactive material wi* hin containment will be restricted from leakage to the environment. The OPERABILITY and closure restricti'ons are sufficient to restrict radioactive material release from a fuel element rupture based upon the lack of containment pressur.- ization potential while in the REFUELING MODE. 3/4.9.5 COMMUNICATIONS The requirement for communications capability ensures that refueling station personnel can be prorrptly informed of significant changes in the facility status or core reactivity condition during CORE ALTERATIONS.

4 REFUELING OPERATIONS BASES' 3/4.9.6 REFUELING MACHINE OPERABILITY The OPERABILITY requirements for the refueling machine ensure that: (1) the refueling machine will be used for movement of CEAs and fuel assemblies,- (2) the refueling machine has sufficient load capacity to lift a CEA or fuel assembly, and (3) the core internals and pressure vessel are protected from excessive lifting force in the event they are inadvertently engaged during lifting operations. 3/4.9.7 CRANE TRAVEL - SPENT FUEL STORAGE BUILDING The restriction on movement of loads in excess of the nominal weight of a fuel assembly and CEA over other fuel assemblies in the storage pool ensures that in the event this load is dropped (1) the activity release will be limited to that contained.in a single fuel a.,embly, and (2) any possible distortion. of fuel in the storage racks will not result in a critical array. This assumption is consistent with the activity release assumed in the accident analyses. 3/4.9.8 COOLANT CIRCULATION-The requirement that at least one shutdown cooling loop be in operation ensures that (1) sufficient cooling capacity is available to regove decay heat and maintain the water in the reactor pressure vessel below 140 F as required during the REFUELING MODE, and (2) sufficient coolant circulation is maintained through the reactor core to minimize the effects of a boron dilution incident and prevent boron stratification. The requirement to have two shutdown cooling loops OPERABLE wnc' there is less than 23 feet of water above the core ensures that a single fai'.ure of the operating shutdown cooling loop will not result in a complete loss of decay heat removal capability. With the reactor vessel head removed and 23 feet of water above the core, a large heat sink is available for core cooling, thus in the event of a failure of the operating shutdown cooling loop, adequate time is provided to initiate emergency procedures to cool the core. 3/4.9.9' CONTAINMENT PURGE VALVE ISOLATION SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of this system ensures that the containment purge valves will be automatically isolated upon detection of high radiation levels within the containment. The OPERABILITY of this system is required to restrict the release of radioactive material from the containment atmosphere to the environment.
