l CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PLANT f

1.1 INTRODUCTION

This Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR) is an appendix to the Shoreham USAR and is submitted by Long Island Lighting Company, hereafter known as LILCO, in support of its application to amend Facility Operating License NPF-82 as described in SNRC-1664.

The description of the plant remains essentially unchanged from the description in Section 1.1 of the SNPS USAR. However, many of the sections which described systems needed to support power operation are significantly changed or excluded from the DSAR.

The DSAR format is the same as that used for the USAR (i.e. NRC Regulatory Guide 1.70, Rev. 1, 1972); however, commensurate with the level of activity of a defueled plant, the content is reduced.

This report is intended to provide sufficient information to enable the NRC Staff to issue the license amendment as requested

, in SNRC-1650.

l The purpose of-the DSAR is to provide a safety analysis for the E

storage and handling of Shoreham low burnup first cycle spent fuel. The DSAR confirms that fuel storage and handling systems, ,

structures, components and programs ensure that there is no undue risk to public health and safety during normal and postulated accident conditions.

The DSAR assumes that the 560 fuel bundles comprising the Shoreham core are stored under water in the Shoreham spent fuel pool. The fuel bundles are held in Seismic Category I spent fuel racks within the stainless steel-lined spent fuel pool. The spent fuel pool is located in the secondary containment, the Shoreham reactor building. The structures are designed to withstand seismic loads.

The Shoreham spent fuel is in a low burnup condition. The Shoreham Nuclear Power Station operated during low power testing at power-levels not exceeding 5% of rated power. The effective burnup of the fuel is approximately 2 full power days. This results in an estimated total core wide heat generation rate of I approximately 550 watts as of June 1989. The estimated fuel heat load will reduce to approximately 250 watts by June'1991. Figure

\ I-1 (taken from DSAR Section 15.1) depicts the fuel heat load g versus time. Based on this low heat generation rate, systems for ,

K active cooling are not required, and only minimal capacity systems are required for pool water makeup to handle evaporation. ,

L 1-1

L e-BROREHAM D8AR The Shoreham spent fuel contains limited quantities of l radioactive materials that are available for release.: As is i stated in DSAR Section 32.2, approximately 176,000 curies of l radioactivity reside in the 560 fuel assemblies. Gaseous activity in the fuel assemblies is primarily Krypton-85 (a noble i gas with a 10.7 year half-life), and consists of approximately -

~1560 curies. The radioactive inventory estimation is based on a two year decay from the last burnup period (completed June 7, j 1987). Other sources of radioactivity outside the core are minor, and include small amounts of contamination in the bottom of sumps, the suppression pool, inside the reactor pressure vessel, and in the radwaste systems.

Chapter 15 presents radiological analyses for those accidents identified in the USAR which are applicable to the defueled plant. In addition, no other accident mechanisms were identified for the plant's defueled condition which are not bounded by l'

Chapter 15. The events analyzed in Chapter 15 are:

1. Fuel Handling Accident (Puel Bundle Drop)
2. - Radwaste Tank Rupture The only design basis accident involving reactor fuel is a Fuel

-( ) Bandling Accident, in which no heat generation takes place. As such, the activity available for release in this design basis accident is primarily Krypton-85, and consists of approximately l 2.5 curies. In addition, a worst case radiological event is postulated in which the entire gaseous activity of the core is H released to the reactor building. This event was postulated to conservatively bound any possible situation involving large-scale J

mechanical damage of the fuel.

The results of the September 1989 spent fuel radiological analysis described in DSAR Chapter 15 indicate that integrated doses are very small-in comparison with 10CFR100 limits. For the worst case scenario in which all the gaseous activity is assumed to be released from the entire core, a spectrum of cases were analyzed as follows: operation of the standby ventilation system, operation of the normal ventilation system, and no o

ventilation (modeled as puff release) . The results of the analyses indicate that the integrated whole body and skin doses, with Reactor Building Normal Ventilation System operational, are less than approximately .03% of 10CFR100 limits. The results of the radiological analysis for the worst case fuel damage scenario are depicted graphically in Figure 1.1-2. In particular, it was demonstrated that the reactor building standby ventilation system operation does not provide an important filtering or ventilation safety function and is therefore no longer required after fuel is stored in the pool.

Based on this analysis, it has been found that the spent fuel pool provides a high degree of passive safety protection for L

Shoreham spent fuel. Active safety systems are not required to 1-2 L _ ..

n SHOREHAM DSAR 1 mitigate postulated accidentar however, support systems are-required to meet the intent of 10CFR50 Appendix A, General Design 1

Criteria ((see Chapter 3 for a-listing) and Regulatory Guide 1.13.

o Supporting systems are required to provide for radiation- J L monitoring, fuel pool' makeup, fuel pool cleanup, radwaste

-management, and normal building services. Therefore a reclassification of safety systems is proposed based on the l importance to safety associated with each plant system with the

> plant defueled.

The DSAR' assumes that the Shoreham spent fuel from the initial core is to be stored for some-interim period in the spent fuel-poo1~ contained within the SNPS reactor building.

I The assumed configuration of principal plant systems is.as follows:

L 1. All 560 fuel bundles have been removed from the reactor and are being stored in seismic Category I spent fuel racks in the spent fuel storage pool. The total decay heat power of l

the entire core has been determined to be approximately 550 watts as of June 1989 (reference DSAR Chapter 15) .

2. As described in DSAR Chapter 9, the spent fuel storage pool

~

water level is maintained at its normal water level. Makeup will be' furnished from the condensate transfer system or the

! domineralized and makeup water system. The. fuel pool cooling l~ system is not in service due to the low heat load in the pool.- Water quality is maintained by the fuel pool cleanup system. The spent fuel pool transfer canal gates will remain l

installed.- Fuel pool level and temperature are alarmed in the Control Room.

3. The capability for fuel handling will be maintained as described in DSAR Chapter 9.
4. The Nuclear Boiler, Reactor Protection, Emergency Core L

Cooling, and Primary Containment systems are not required and are-in a protected state. This is discussed in DSAR Chapters 4, 5 and 6.

5. Two independent offsite AC power sources will be maintained to supply reliable electric power. In addition, as discussed

(: in Chapter 8, blackstart combustion turbines exist nearby in l

the Shoreham west site to supply emergency power to the plant. However, as discussed in DSAR Chapter 15, onsite Emergency Diesel Electric Power is not required to mitigate design basis accidents. AC Power is required by Technic 1 Specifications to remain operable during fuel movement.

( 6. Secondary containment integrity will be maintained utilizing the Normal Ventilation System to provide a controlled and monitored release capability as discussed in Chapter 15 Safety Analysis.

7. The steam and power conversion systems are not required to be operable or' functional and are protected from significant degradation as described in.DSAR Chapter 10.

2.3.3.2 Operational Program .

The operational meteorological monitoring program uses instrumentation to determine wind-speed and -direction at 33- and 150-ft. ambient air temperature at 33-ft and temperature i differential (Temp 9 150-ft minus Temp 9 33-ft). These instruments-are located on SNPS' 400 ft. meteorological tower which is located approximately 5100-ft WSW of the reactor building (Figure 2.1.1.1). The MET tower was positioned ,

sufficiently close to SNPS to provide representative observations of' released gaseous effluents, but far enough away to minimize atmospheric disturbances caused by SNPS' structures.

!. Wind-speed and -direction at the 33-ft level, along with the

' temperature differential are transmitted to the Technical Support Center. ~In addition to these parameters, wind-speed and

-direction at 150-ft., and temperature at 33-ft. are transmitted to the Main Control Room and entered into the RMS computer. .

All instrumentation was either manufactured or supplied by Climatronics Corporation, Hauppauge, New York. The specifica-tions outlined in Regulatory Guide 1.23 were used in the

selection of these instruments. Wind instrumentation includes F460 wind sets .(three cup anemometers and direction vanes) at the 33'and 150 ft. levels. Temperature sensors in shielded aspirators are oriented in a northerly direction to limit the influence of solar insolation. A motor and fan draw a constant 2-1

To ensure the operability of the system, quarterly calibrations are performed by.a qualified vendor, and channel checks are -,

-performed by the operators on. shift using qualitative assessment

- of the channel's behavior during operation. Operators.do this by i checking the chart recorders in the control room. This L instrumentation includes:

3) Ambient temperature monitor at the 33-ft elevation; and L
4) Differential air temperature monitor which uses the L

temperature data recorded at 33-ft. and 150-ft. elevations. 3 1

L (') - Meteorological sensors are replaced on a quarterly basis with L 's /- Adentical equipment which have been calibrated in the laboratory of a qualified vendor. Vendor personnel perform the actual sensor substitutions under the direction of LILCO technicians.

. Applicable criterion Conformance Quality Standards and Records (Criterion 1)

Criterion Structures,-systems, and components important to safety shall be designed, fabricated, erected, and tested to quality standards commensurate with the importance of the safety' functions to be performed. Where generally recognized codes and standards are used, they shall be identified and evaluated to determine their applicability, adequacy, and sufficiency and shall be supplemented or modified as necessary to assure a quality product in kesping with the required safety function. A quality assurance program shall be established and implemented in order to~ provide adequate assurance that these structures, systems, and components will satisfactorily perform their safety functions.

Appropriate records of the design, fabrication, erection, and testing of structures, systems, and components important to safety shall be maintained by or under the control of the nuclear power unit licensee throughout the life of the unit.

O Design Conformance Structures, systems, and components are classified in Section 3.2. The LILCO QA program described in DSAR Chapter 17 assures 3-2

l that quality practioes and documentation are maintained l ' commensurate with the classification that is identified in this. l p Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DEAR). A new Q.A. Category IIA l

is provided for USAR safety-related structures, systems, and E camponents that no longer fulfill a safety function for.a defueled reactor.

-Desion Basis for Protection Against Natural Phenomena (Criterion-2)

-Criterion l'

Structures, systems, and components important to safety shall be designed to withstand the effects of natural phenomena such as L earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, tsunami, and seiches without loss of capability to perform their safety functions.

The design bases for these structures, systems, and components shall reflects (1) appropriate consideration of the most severe l of the natural phenomena that have been historically reported for the site and surrounding area,'with sufficient margin for the I

L limited accuracy, quantity, and period of time in which the l historical. data have been accumulated, .(2) appropriate combinations of the effects of normal and accident conditions (3) the with the effects of the natural phenomena, and importance of,the safety functions to be performed.

Desian Conformance

.The-spent fuel racks, fuel pool, and reactor building which are required.to maintain the SNPS fuel in a safe condition are designed to withstand natural phenomena as described in the USAR.

Because of the low burnup condition of the SNPS Cycle I spent E fuel, the need for support systems is limited-(see Chapters 9, 15). Natural phenomena are described in Chapter 3 of the Shoreham USAR.

L Tire Protection (Criterion 3) i Criterion Structures, systems, and components important to safety shall be designed and located to minimize, consistent with other safety requirements, the probability and effect of fires and explosions.

Noncombustible and heat resistant materials shall be used wherever practical throughout the unit, particularly in locations such as the containment and control room. Fire detection and i fighting systems of appropriate capacity and capability shall be provided and designed to minimize the adverse effects of fires on O structures, systems, and components important to safety. Fire fighting systems shall be designed to assure that their rupture or-inadvertent operation does not significantly impair the safety capability of these structures, systems, and components.

. designed to accommodate the effects of and to be compatible with the environmental conditions associated with normal operation, maintenance, testing, and postulated accidents, including loss of coolant accidents. ,These structures, systems, and components shall be appropriately protected against dynamic effects, including the effects of missiles, pipe whipping, and discharging fluids,'that may result from equipment failures and from events and conditions outside the nuclear power unit.

L Design Conformance l

Chaptar lL5.of this report defines accidents that are applicable to spent fuel storage and fuel handling.. The spent fuel is.

l O.L stored in the spent fuel storage pool. The pool structure, E . Reactor Building, and spent fuel racks provide passive safety l protection from missiles or other conditions that could cause fuel mechanical damage. The structural design basis of the fuel storage racks is discussed in Chapter 9 of the USAR. . Additional information on the design of structures, systems, and components can be found in Chapter 3 of the Shoreham USAR.

-Instrumentation and Control (Criterion 13)

Criterion Instrumentation shall be provided to monitor variables and systems over their anticipated ranges for normal operation, for anticipated operational occurrences, and for accident conditions as appropriate to assure adequate safety, including those variables and systems that can affect the fission process, the integrity of the reactor core, the reactor coolant pressure ,

boundary, and the containment and its associated systems.

Appropriate controls shall be provided to maintain these variables and systems within prescribed operating ranges.

Design Conformance Instrumentation is provided to monitor spent fuel pool level and

i SHOREHAM DSAR Electric-Power Systems (Criterion 17) criterion l

I' An onsite electric power system and an offsite electric power j system shall be provided to permit functioning of structures, l systems, and components important to safety. The safety function j for each system (assuming the other system is not functioning) shall be to provide sufficient capacity and capability to assure that (1) specified acceptable fuel design limits and design conditions of.the reactor coolant pressure boundary are not exceeded as a result of anticipated operational occurrences and ,

(2) the core is cooled and containment integrity and other vital l functions are maintained.in.the-event of postulated accidents. l, The onsite electric power supplies, including the batteries, and the onsite electric distribution system shall have sufficient independence, redundancy, and testability to perform their safety functions assuming a single failure.

Electric power from the transmission network to the onsite electric distribution system shall be supplied by two physically independent circuits (not necessarily on separate rights of way)

-( f 2

designed and located so as to' minimize to the extent practical

.the likelihood of their simultaneous failure under operating and postulated accident and environmental conditions. A switchyard-common to both circuits is acceptable. Each of these circuits shall be designed to be available.in sufficient time following a lose:of.all onsite alternating current power supplies and the

-other offsite electric power circuit, to assure that specified acceptable fuel design limits and design conditions of the reactor' coolant pressure boundary are not exceeded. One of these circuits shall be designed to be available within a few seconds following a loss of coolant accident to assure that core cooling, containment integrity, and other vital safety functions are maintained.

Provisions shall be included to minimize the probability of losing electric power from any of the remaining supplies as a result of, or coincident with, the loss of power generated by the nuclear power unit, the loss of power from the transmission L network, or the loss of power from the onsite electric power-supplies.

Design Conformance The criterion applies principally to the design of an operating reactor. As demonstrated in DSAR Chapter 15, active system are not required to provide cooling or makeup functions in the event O of postulated accidents including a seismic event. However, operability of the electric power system will be required by Technical Specifications during fuel movement to provide for a controlled and monitored release capability in the event of a 3-5

, . =i SHOREHAM DSAR fuel drop eccident.- Two offsite power transmission system will ,

be maintained to provide power for support system operation. In  !

addition, blackstart combustion turbines exist nearby at Shoreham-West to provide reliable power in the unlikely event of a loss-of-offsite power occurs. Emergency Diesel Generators are not required.- A further discussion of electric power requirements can be found in Chapter 15.

Inspection and Testing of Electric Power Systems (Criterion 18)

Criterion Electric power systems important to safety shall be designed to permit appropriate periodic inspection and testing of important areas and features, such as wiring, insulation, connections, and switchboards, to assess the continuity of the systems and the conditions of their components. The systems shall be designed with a capability to test periodically (1) the operability and functional performance of the components of the systems, such as onsite power sources, relays, switches, and buses, and (2) the o operability of the' systems as a whole and, under conditions as close to-design as practical, the full operation sequence that brings:the systems into operation including operation of

-applicable portions of the protection system, and the transfer of power among the nuclear power unit, the offsite power system, and the onsite power system.

Design Conformance Electric Power Systems will be tested and inspected in accordance with SNPS operating procedures and Technical Specifications. See criteria 17 response.

Control Room (Criterion 19)

Criterion A control room shall be provided from which actions can be taken to operate the nuclear power unit safely under normal conditions and to maintain it in a safe condition under accident conditions, including loss of coolant accidents. Adequate radiation L protection shall be provided to permit access and occupancy of the control room under accident conditions without personnel receiving radiation exposures in excess of 5 rem whole body, or its equivalent to any part of the body, for the duration of the accident.

Equipment at appropriate locations outside the control room shall be provided (1) with a design capability for prompt hot shutdown of the reactor, including necessary instrumentation and controls to maintain the unit in a safe condition during hot shutdown, and (2) with a potential capability for subsequent cold shutdown of '

the reactor through the use of suitable procedures.

TCrii;erion 60)

Criterio_n The nuclear power unit design shall include means to control suitably the release of radioactive materialg in gaseous and liquid effluents and to handle radioactive solid wastes produced during normal reactor operation, including anticipated operational occurrences. Sufficient holdup capacity shall be provided for retention of gaseous and liquid affluents containing radioactive materials, particularly where unfavorable site environmental conditions can be expected to impose unusual operational limitations upon the release of such effluents to the environment.

Design Conformance Because SNPS is not in normal operation, effluent releases are due primarily to maintenance of the spent fuel pool water quality. Means are provided to control and/or hold up the release of liquid and gaseous effluents as required. Fuel pool clehnup and appropriate radwaste systems are provided and are described in Chapters 9 and 11. See also Criterion 61.

O 3-8

v  ;

SHOREHAM DSAR f Fuel Storage and Handling and Radioactivity Control TCriterion 61)

Criterion The fuel storage and handling, radioactive waste, and other j systems which may contain radioactivity shall be designed to assure adequate safety under normal and postulated accident conditions. These systemr. shall be designed, -(1) with a capability to permit apprcpriate periodic inspection and testing  ;

of components important to sufety, (2) with suitable shielding i for radiation protection, (3) with appropriate containment, confinement, and filtering systems, (4) with a residual heat removal capability having reliability and testability that.

reflects the importance to safety of decay heat and other residual heat removal, and (5) to prevent significant reduction in fuel storage coolant inventory under accident conditions.

Dgsign Conformance .

Fuel Storace and Handling l The low burnup SNPS spent fuel is to be stored in the spent fuel l -storage pool located in the reactor building. The fuel racks and fuel pool structure are Seismic Category I. Systems required-for safe fuel storage will be subject to appropriate inspection and testing requirements.

Adequate shielding is provided by maintaining a minimum water depth over the active fuel. Dose rates at the refueling level without the effects of shielding were calculated to be approximately 1R/HR. i The SNPS Secondary Containment is a Seismic Category I controlled leakage building surrounding the fuel pool facility. The Reactor Building Normal Ventilation System (RBNVS) will be used to provide ventilation and secondary containment negative pressure.

Because the gas activity present in the fuel and available for release is primarily noble gas (Kr-85) , the filtering role of the -

Reactor Building Standby Ventilation System (RBSVS) is not ,

required. Certain components of the RBSVS are needed to support operation of the RBNVS. These components will remain functional to provide these services. As discussed in Chapter 15, credible potential releases from accidents are small in comparison to 10CFR100 limits, and the Reactor Building Standby Ventilation System is not required to reduce offsite doses due to postulated accidents.

Radiation monitoring is provided as described in Chapter 11 and O 12 to detect radiological releases. l Because of the extremely low residual heat load (approximately ,

550 watts) associated with the SNPS spent fuel, active fuel pool l 3-9

1 l

l i

{} SHOREHAM DSAR cooling is not required. Reliable fuel pool makeup sources j including condensate storage, demineralized water, and fire protection water, are capable of maintaining pool water inventory  ;

to compensate for evaporation. Chapter 9 contains a complete discussion of makeup requirements. j i'

The fuel pool is a Seismic Category I structure. Systems that connect to the pool (fuel pool cooling, fuel pool cleanup, etc.)

have been designed to minimize the potential for draining of the pool inventory. High and low level alarms indicate pool water level changes in the main control room.

Radioactive Waste Systems .

The radioactive waste systems provide all equipment necessary to collect, process, and prepare for disposal of all radioactive  ;

liquids and solid waste produced as a result of spent fuel storage. The off-gas system is not needed. Any Krypton 85 will )

be retained within the fuel cladding. Should pin-hole leaks develop, the gases will be handled by the ventilation systems.

They will be discharged to atmosphere via the main plant vent. i

. The radiological consequences of this type of release are '

, neglioible. This accident is bounded by the analysis of the Fuel

(

Handling Accident (Section 15.1.36).

Liquid radwastes are collected, classified, and treated as high conductivity, low conductivity, chemical or laundry wastes.

Processing includes filtration, ion exchange, analysis, and 7 dilution. Wet solid wastes are packaged in steel containers or polyethylene high integrity containers. Dry solid radwastes are compressed and/or packed in steel drums or boxes.

Accessible portions of the spent fuel pool area and radwaste building have sufficient shielding to maintain dose rates within the limits set forth in 10CFR20 and 10CFR100. The radwaste '

building is designed to preclude accidental release of radioactive materials to the environs above those allowed by the applicable regulations.

The fuel storage and handling and radioactive waste systems are designed to assure adequate safety under normal and postulated -

accident conditions. The design of these systems meets the requirements of Criterion 61.

Radwaste systems are designed to meet the limits for effluents set forth in 10CFR20 and 10CFR50.

4 SHOREHAM DSAR Criticality in the fuel storage and handling system shall be prevented by physical systems or processes, preferably by use of geometrically safe configurations.

Design Conformance Appropriate plant fuel handling and storage facilities are provided to preclude accidental criticality for new and spent fuel. Criticality in spent fuel storage is prevented by the geometrically safe configuration of the storage rack. There is sufficient spacing between the assemblies to assure that the array, when fully loaded, is substantially suberitf,;al. Fuel elements are limited by rack design to only top loading and designated fuel assembly positions.

, Spent fuel is stored under water in the spent fuel storage pool.

l The racks in which spent fuel assemblies are placed are designed i and arranged to ensure suberiticality in the storage pool. Spent fuel is maintained at a suberitical multiplication factor k-eff of less than 0.95 for both normal and abnormal storage conditions.

r-' The fuel handling system is designed to provide a safe, effective i means of transporting and handling fuel and to minimize the possibility of mishandling or misoperation.

The use of geometrically safe configurations for new and spent fuel storage and the design of fuel handling systems precludes accidental criticality in accordance with criterion 62.

For further discussion, see the following section:

Section 9A Criticality Analysis l

Monitoring _ Fuel and Waste Storage (Criterion 63) l criterion Appropriate systems shall be provided in fuel storage and radioactive waste systems and associated handling areas, (1) to detect conditions that may result in loss of residual heat removal capability and excessive radiation levels, and (2) to initiate appropriate safety actions.

Design Conformance Appropriate systems have been provided to meet the requirements of this criterion. A malfunction of the fuel pool cleanup system

() is alarmed in the main control room. It is also alarmed in the radwaste control room on high pressure differential. Alarmed conditions include high/ low fuel pool level. The refueling level ventilation exhaust radiation monitoring system detects abnormal amounts of radioactivity. As demonstrated in Section 9A and 3-11

Chapter 15 active cooling of the spent fuel pool is not required i because of the low heat generation rate.  :

Area radiation and sump levels are monitored and alarmed to give I indication of conditions that may result in excessive radiation levels in the fuel storage and radioactive waste system areas.

These systems satisfy the requirements of Criterion 63. ,

Monitoring Radioactivity Releases (Criterion 64)

Criterion Means shall be provided for monitoring the reactor containment ,

atmosphere, spaces containing components for recirculation of '

loss of coolant accident fluids, effluent discharge paths, and  :

the plant environs for radioactivity that may be released from normal operations, including anticipated operational occurrences, and from postulated accidents.

Desigg_Conformance Means have been provided for monitoring radioactivity releases resulting from normal and anticipated operational occurrences.

The following station release pathways are monitored:

-( } ,

1. Gaseous releases from the station ventilation exhaust
2. Liquid discharge to the discharge tunnel Radioactivity levels in the normal plant effluent discharge paths and in the environment are continually monitored during normal conditions by the various radiation monitoring systems and by the ,

offsite radiological environmental monitoring programs.

The semiannual Effluent Release Report is submitted to the NRC.

This report includes specific information on the quantities of the principal radionuclides released to the environment.

Additional discussion of radiation monitoring is contained in Chapters 11 and 12.

3.2 CLASSIFICATION OF' STRUCTURES, SYSTEMS AND COMPONENTS Seismic Category I structures, systems, and components are those necessary to ensure:

1. The integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary
2. The capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition
3. The capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents that could result in potential offsite exposures comparable to the guideline exposures of 10CFR100, 3-12

Criteria 1 and 2 do not apply to a defueled reactor with  ;

respect to the storage and handling of low burnup Shoreham '

spent fuel. A set of postulated accidents has been identified and analyzed in Chapter 15 of this report that  !

defines the potential for a radiological release. Based on thin analysis it has been concluded that potential i radiological releases are far below the exposure limits of i 10CFR100. The analysis in Chapter 15 of this report assumes

  • that the structural integrity of the filled fuel pool, fuel  ;

pool liner, reactor building structure and fuel racks together form a passive safety system that requires a seismic i Category I designation. The Category I designation has been ,

maintained for fuel handling equipment as well.

A reclassification of structures, systems, and components is e provided in DSAR Table 3.2-1. Table 3.2-1 supplements the information provided in USAR Table 3.2.1-1. The quality group classification in USAR Table 3.2.1-1 reflects the original design basis. As analyzed in Chapter 15, active  !

cooling of the spent fuel pool is not required and pool makeup requirements are minimal. Supporting systems are E required to maintain building habitability, provide radiation monitoring capability, and normal operating service  ;

i O: functions.

l- Design Basis Earthquakes (DBE) and Operating Basis

( Earthquakes (OBE) are described in the Shoreham USAR Section 2.5.  ;

Structures, systems, and components whose safety functions require conformance to the quality assurance requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix B, are summarized in Table 3.2-1 under the heading, LILCO Quality Assurance Category, with the notation l

A key of definitions is provided at the end of Table 3.2-1.

A new designation, Q.A. Category IIA, is utilized for systems, structures and, components originally Q.A. Category I that are no longer required to meet 10CFR50 Appendix B in the defueled condition. Chapter 17 discusses the graded level of 0.A. requirements for this equipment.

3.30 SEISMIC QUALIFICATION OF SEISMIC CATEGORY I INSTRUMENTATION AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT Seismic category I equipment is identified in Table 3.2-1 and is limited to structures and equipment required to maintain the integrity of the fuel in the spent fuel pool. As discussed in Section 3.2, only the Reactor Building, fuel pool, fuel racks, and fuel handling equipment are required to be seismic. category I. The instrumentation described in USAR Section 3.10 is no longer required to be seismically qualified. This equipment is given a Q.A. Category IIA designation (See Chapter 17 and Table 3.2-1) so that deviations from original seismic requirement can be tracked.

3.11 ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN OF MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT i

Electrical Equipment Environmental _ Qualification Purpose The purpose of the Electrical Equipment Environmental Qualification Program for Shoreham is to provide assurance that

{ (~' electrical equipment important to safety as defined by 10CFR50.49

' located in potentially harsh environments maintains functional operability when required to mitigate the consequences of a postulated accident or to bring the plant to a cold shutdown L condition afterward. Since the fuel has been removed and stored I in the fuel pool, LOCA or HELB cannot occur (see Chapter 15), and there is no potential for creation of harsh environment (i.e.,

the remaining design basis accidents discussed in Chapter 15 do not result in harsh environments) . Based on these conditions, 10CFR 50.49 is not applicable, therefore the environmental qualification program is not required. Environmentally qualified electrical equipment will be designated O.A. Category IIA so that deviations from the EQ program can be tracked.

l 3.12 SEPARATION CRITERION FOR SAFETY RELATED MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT The systems described in this section are no longer required to fulfill a safety related function regarding the storage of spent fuel. Thus, there no longer exists a need to maintain separation criteria for these systems. Q.A. Category I equipment will be designated Q.A. Category IIA whereby deviations can be tracked in accordance with the LILCO Q.A. Program.

CHAPTER 4 REACTOR This Chapter includes reactor description, mechanical design, nuclear design, thermal and hydraulic design, reactor materials  ;

and control rod drive housing supports. In the plant's defueled )

condition, the fuel is not in the core and the reactor is depressurized. All sections of this Chapter are, therefore, not applicable to the DSAR. Fuel storage is addressed in DSAR Chapter 9. In particular, Section 9A addresses criticality and Section 9B addresses fuel pool make-up requirements.

4.1 REACTOR

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION The NSS system is no longer needed for the defueled condition and hence is depressurized.

4.1.1 Reactor Vessel The reactor vessel design and description are covered in Section

- 5.4.

4.1.2 Reactor Internal Components Fuel Rod i

J-A fuel rod consists of uranium dioxide (U0 3 ) pellets and a l zircaloy-2 cladding tube. A fuel rod is made by stacking pellets

( into a zircaloy-2 cladding tube that has been evacuated and backfilled with helium. The tube is sealed by welding zircaloy end plugs in each end of the tube.

The BWR fuel rod is designed as a pressure vessel. The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section III, is used as a guide in the mechanical design and stress analysis of the fuel rod.

The rod is designed to withstand the applied loads, both external ,

and internal. The fuel pellet is sized to provide sufficient volume within the fuel tube to accommodate differential expansion between the fuel and cladding. Overall fuel rod design is conservative in its accommodation of the mechanisms affecting fuel in a BWR environment.

i Fuel Bundle Each fuel bundle contains 62 fuel rods and two water rods, which

("' are spaced and supported in a square (8 x 8) array by a lower and upper tie plate. The fuel bundle has two important design features:

4-1

-r> - , , - - - - - r - _ _ , , _ _ _ _

SHOREHAM DSAR  ;

I

1. The bundle design places minimum external forces on a fuel rods each fuel rod is free to expand in the axial direction.
2. The unique structural design permits the removal and replacement, if required, of individual fuel rods.

The fuel assemblies that make up the core are designed to meet l all criteria for core performance and to provide ease of handling. Selected fuel rods in each assembly differ from the j others in uranium enrichment. This arrangement produces more I uniform power production across the fuel assembly, thereby significantly reducing the amount of heat transfer surface required to satisfy the design thermal limitations.

1 4.1.3 Reactivity Control System This system is no longer; needed as there is no fuel in the i reactor vessel. l 4.1.4 Analysis Techniques The description contained under this heading in the latest revision of the USAR remains unchanged. Refer to the USAR for information on this subject.

4.4 THERMAL AND HYDRAULIC DESIGN l The linear heat generation rate (LHGR) limit of 13.4 kw/ft will l not be exceeded by the decaying fuel in the spent fuel pool.

Justification for this limit can be found in Appendix A, of i GeneygJElectricStandardApplicationforReactorFuel(GESTAR l II).

l l 4.5 REACTOR MATERIALS l

Neither the Control Rod System or Reactor Internal materials are of importance to the defueled plant conditions.

4.6 CONTROL ROD DRIVE HOUSING SUPPORTS There is no fuel in the vessel in the defueled state and hence this system is not of concern.

() SHOREHAM DSAR CHAPTER 5 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM The reactor coolant system includes those systems and components  :

that contain or transport fluids coming from or going to the reactor core. In the plant's defueled condition, the fuel is not in the core and the reactor is depressurized. Therefore, the reactor coolant system is not required and all sections, including Appendices, of USAR Chapter 5 are not, applicable to the DSAR. The possible exception is that if the reactor is layed up wet, the RWCU System will be utilized.

5.5.7 Residual Heat Removal System ,

The Residual Heat Removal (RHR) System is described in the USAR.

In the defueled status of the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station the '

RHR System serves no function. This system is protected.

CHAPTER 6 l

ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES i 6.1 GENERAL ,

Because of the Defueled Plant Configuration, there is no longer a need for engineered safety features (ESP) systems at Shoreham.

This is substantiated by a review of the Design Basis Accidents ,

and Postulated Transients. These are covered in Chapter 15. ,

This chapter discusses the effect of radiological accidents in {

the Secondary Containment. The Secondary Containment is utilized for maintaining a controlled and monitored release point for the design basis accident, the Fuel Bundle Drop accident. In  :

addition, a worst case release of the entire gaseous inventory of the fuel is postulated in Chapter 15 that bounds any possible large scale mechanical-damage event.

6.2 CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS 6.2.1 Containment Functional Design 6.2.1.1 Design Basis 6.2.1.1.1 Safety Criteria The primary containment system is not required and will not be maintained functional as there will be no fuel within the primary containment structure. The secondary containment will maintain a subatmospheric pressure for postulated radiological accidents to assure radiological monitoring of building releases. It is not '

needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident.

6.2.1.1.2 Design Basis Accidents The major design basis accident identified which will affect the secondary containment is the Fuel Handling Accident (Fuel Bundle Drop). The results of this accident from a radiological standpoint are presented in Chapter 15. There are no pressure and temperature effects of this accident and the RBNVS would continue to maintain a subatmospheric condition.

The other event which would have an effect on the secondary containment is the loss of normal AC.

A loss of normal AC transient may result in loss of subatmospheric conditions within the secondary containment.

O However, as explained in Chapter 15 the time period before any 6-1

significant loss of fuel pool water level is long, and l appropriate corrective action is postulated to be taken before l fuel damage occurs. There are no radiological consequences associated with this event.

6.2.1.2 System Desion ]

The reactor building, which completely encloses the primary containment and acts as the secondary containment, is maintained -

at subatmospheric pressure by the RBNVS.

6.2.1.3 Design Evaluation This entire subsection is not applicable as it deals with the -

primary containment which is no longer maintained.

primary containment isolation system. The primary containment is no longer maintained.

6.2.5 Combustible Gas control in Containment L

l This subsection is no longer applicable as it is concerned with  !

! hydrogen combustion inside the primary containment.

6.3 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING $YSTEMS The emergency core cooling systems protect the core against ,

hypothetical pipe breaks of various sizes. In the plant's present state, the fuel is not in the core and the reactor is depressurized. Therefore, pipe breaks are not postulated and the emergency core cooling systems are not required and this section l is not' applicable to DSAR.

l 6.3.2.2.3 Core Spray System

8.1 INTRODUCTION

l! 'This chapter describes the details of the plant auxiliary power distribution system which is designed to provide adequate electrical power to all plant equipment. The defueled condition of the plant does not require ~the operation of any Class lE power system. Therefore, as stated in Section 8.3.1 item 2, diesel generator and safety related equipment will not be required while L the plant is in the defueled mode.

8.1.1 Utility Grid I: The description contained under this heading in the latest I revision of the Shoreham USAR remains unchanged in the defueled condition. For further information on.this subject refer to the USAR.

8.1.3 Offsite Power System While~in-the defueled condition the offsite power system provides power,to all operating plant equipment. Power to the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station is provided from the LILCO system through 138KV or 69KV circuits. The 138KV switchyard is arranged in a

.two bus configuration with circuit breakers and switches arranged to permit isolation and/or repair of either bus section. Four

, 138KV circuits enter into the switchyard (two per bus) each containing a circuit breaker'at the connection to its respective L

bus. Two separate rights-of-way are provided, each containing two of the 138KV circuits. The 69KV circuit from the tildwood l

substation enters the site sharing one of the aforementioned rights-of-way for a distance of one mile. This circu'., however, is mounted on separate towers and is separated from the 138KV l

circuits. The detailed description of the remaining offsite j

system remains as described in the USAR except as follows:

CHAPTER 9 AUXILIARY SYSTEMS j

'9.1 FUEL STORAGE AND HANDLING 9.1.1 New' Fuel Storage Since no new fuel will be received, this section of the USAR is not required in the defueled condition.

9.1.2 Spent Fuel Storage '

9.1. 2. l' Design Bases i

1. Spent fuel storage space is designed to accommodate 2,176 fuel assemblies (390 percent of the full core fuel load);

however, currently only 1,420 storage cavities have been installed and are available to receive spent fuel assemblies (See Figure 9.1.2-1 revised for DSAR).

The remainder of this.Section, paragraphs 9.1.2.1.2 through

' (): '

9.1.2.1.10, is identical to the USAR.

9.1.2.2 Facilities Description

' Spent fuel. storage racks provideia place in the spent fuel pool for storing spent fuel received from the reactor vessel. The location of the spent; fuel pool within the reactor building is shown on Figure 3.8.1-4. The general arrangement of the storage soace, illustrated on DSAR Figure 9.1.2-1, will permit the storage of 2,176 fuel assemblies (the current installed capacity in the spent fuel pool'is for 1,420 fuel assemblies) plus 144 control rods.

The remainder of this Section is identical to that in the USAR, up to the first paragraph of page 9.1-8. From this point to the end of page 10, the text is deleted.

9.1.2.3 Safety Evaluation This section remains identical to that in the USAR except that in the DSAR Appendix 9A provides the criticality analysis.

9.1.2.4 Tests and-Inspection The description contained under this heading in the latest

/~'. revision of Shoreham USAR ren:ains unchanged. Refer to the USAR for information on this subject.

G f(j SHOREHAM DSAR 9.1'.2.5' Radiological Considerations The description contained under this heading in the latest .

revision of Shoreham USAR remains unchanged. Refer to USAR for information on this subject.

~9.1.3 Fuel Pool Cooling and Cleanup System All of the equipment in this system will be retained for operation, but in a_ modified manner. Since the fuel pool cooling subsystem is designed to remove the decay heat produced by spent fuel assemblies, as described-in the USAR, and only a negligible amount of heat is expected to be generated from the slightly irradiated spent fuel bundles stored there, the cooling mode is '

not required. Thus reactor building closed loop cooling water is not required.

Appendix 9B provides an evaluation of spent fuel pool makeup requirements.

However, the spent fuel pool cooling subsystem will be used in the makeup mode in order to provide normal makeup water to the

\ fuel pool from the condensate storage tank using the condensate

~(d

' transfer and storage system. Alternate makeup sources for the l spent fuel pool are Demineralized and Makeup Water System, Fire I

Protection Water System, and the Service Water System. The. ,

makeup mode is described at the end of USAR paragraph 9.1.3.2.1.

[

The fuel pool cleanup subsystem will be used as designed.

1 The fuel-pool cannot be inadvertently drained because the pump suctions for the fuel pool cooling and cleanup system are taken above elevation 168, or about 7 feet below the normal water level. If a break occurred in these lines, about 18 feet of water would remain above the fuel in the pool. This is more than enough to provide adequate shielding. Pump returns to the pool are equipped with siphon breakers to prevent inadvertant pool l

drainage.

SHOREHAM DSAR 9.1.4.3 Description of Fuel Transfer The fuel handling system provides a safe and effective means for transporting-and handling _ fuel from the time it reaches theThe. plant until it leaves the plant after post-irradiation cooling.

preceding' subsection describes the equipment and methods used in fuel handling. The following paragraphs describe the integrated-fuel transfer system, which ensures that the design bases of the

' fuel handling system and the requirements of Regulatory Guide

'l.13.are satisfied.

9.1.4.3.1 Arrival of Fuel On Site No new fuel is expected to arrive on site. Therefore this section of the USAR'is not applicable.

9.1.4.3.2 Refueling Procedure No refueling is planned. Therefore this section of the USAR is not required.

9.1.4.3.3 Departure of Fuel from Site

() This section applies as written in the USAR.

In addition:

1. The spent fuel will be removed from the site in certified fuel shipping casks.
2. The casks will be leak tested prior to shipment.

The remainder of USAR Section 9.1.4 is applicable.

9.2 WATER SYSTEMS 9.2.1 Service-Water System

-The Service Water (SW) System is as described in USAR Sections 9.2.1;l thru 9.2.1.4 with the following changes because of the reduced heat removal requirements with the plant in the de-fueled state.

a) The RBSW system is considered non-safety related because it does not provide cooling water to any plant equipment required to perform a safety function.

b) One RBSW pump will supply cooling water to one RBSVS/CRAC chiller condenser. No service water is required for RHR, O- -

diesel engine cooling, RBCLCW, drywell cooling, and makeup water to the reactor vessel ultimate cooling connection (UCC). The testable check valve in the UCC will not require 9-3

~'

SHOREHAM DSAR fi l(d(

testing to verify forward flow. . Emergency service water to the spent fuel pool is not required (per DSAR Chapter 15) because of the very low heat generation by the fuel.

c) All pumps and motor operated valves will' actuate upon manual initiation signals only. Automatic start /initiatior,due to accident signals will be defeated..

-d)- The double isolation valves which split the RBSE from the TBSW subsystems may be opened to intertie the subsystems _as l required. l e) Normal operation will now consist of only one TBSW pump in use because of the minimal heat load imposed by the TBCLCW i system to support the station air compressors. It will l supply cooling water to.one TBCLCW heat exchanger, the l circulating water pump bearing and the fish retention pool. l I

Cooling water for-the vacuum priming pump seal cooler is not required. The second TBSW pump would remain in automatic standby while-the third pump would be off and rotato in the operational mode with the other two pumps.

f)- The only tests and inspections to be performed on the TBSW system in the-defueled_ condition are those that are deemed to 1

be required for proper operation and maintenance.

g) 'Tabld 9.2.1-1 has been revised.

Section 9.2.1.5 remains unchanged.

9.2.2 Reactor Building Closed Loop Cooling Water (RBCLCW) System l None of the equipment that uses RBCLCW (refer to USAR Section 9.2.2.2) is required to operate with the fuel in the spent fuel L

pool. The one possible exception is the RWCU pump which may be needed if the reactor is layed up wet. Therefore, this system'is not required for operation in the defueled condition. -

SHOREHAM DSAR' V(~)

Appendix 9A FUEL CRITICALITY ANALYSIS The Shoreham Spent Fuel Rack (SFR) is of a stainless steel and water neutron flux trap. design which uses no additional poison.

A description of the storage racks is provided-in 9.1.2. The criticality analysis of this rack design is described in detail in Appendix 9A of the Shoreham USAR. The reactivity results which are summarized in USAR Table 9A-4 remain valid for the >

conditions existing at Shoreham after defueling. Furthermore, due to the differences in U-235 enrichment between the SFR i designed and the current Shoreham fuel, a large negative ,

reactivity credit should be taken into account. This is explained as follows:

The Shoreham SFR design is based on a maximum U-235 '

enrichment of 3.1 wt. %. The resulting basic cell k is calculated to be 0.9129 without uncertainty and model adjustments (Table 9A-4, Appendix 9A, Shoreham USAR). The Shoreham Cycle 1 fuel loading uses three (3) enrichments. Of the 560 fuel assemblies in the core, 340 bundles have the ,

highest bundle average U-235 enrichment of 2.19 wt. %, 144 l bundles of 1.76 wt. %-and 76 remaining bundles uses natural

'.( )- . uranium.

l l

,If the six inch natural uranium segments at the top and bottom of the fuel are excluded, the average enrichment of a 2.19 wt. % bundle becomes 2.33 wt. %. Using this enrichment and linearly extrapolating the reactivity vs. U-235 enrichment results given in Figure 9A-5 of Appendix 9A, Shoreham USAR, the reactivity difference between the SFR design enrichment of 3.1 wt. % and the current maxiumum i loading enrichment of-2.33 wt. % is found to be about -6.0%

in k ( k -0.060). This brings the basic cell k under nominal storage conditions for the current fuel down to i 0.85, which is well below the regulatory acceptance criterion  ;

of k 0.95. All'the corrective and uncertainty adjustments listed in Table 9A-4 of the Shoreham USAR remain applicable.

During the period from July, 1985 to June, 1987, Shoreham went through three separate stages of low power testing (less than 5%

of rated power), which resulted in a total core exposure of approximately 48 mwd /MT as determined by a series of core-follow analyses. The net effect of the core exposure is a slight decrease in reactivity ( -0.002 in k) mainly due to the l-offsetting contributions from the formation of Sm-149 and the slight depletion of the burnable Gd poison in the fuel bundles.

In light of the large reactivity margin described previously (k O. 0.85), no additional credit will be claimed here.

j SHOREHAM DSAR 93 'Jy,ALUATION OF SPENT FUEL POOL MAKEUP REQUIREMENTS An analysis was performed to determine the rate of water loss .

from the spent fuel pool through evaporation under the worst case

.are scenario The following conservative assumptions l

used described below.to maximize in the analysis the calculated pool .

evaporation rates

1) ,The spent fuel pool temperature is 110*F. t L 2) The ambient temperature above the spent fuel pool is  :

conservatively assumed to have zero relative humidity.

3) The reactor building air flow exists due to normal i

ventilation system operation to maximize evaporation.

t The result of the calculation shows that the maximum evaporation rate from the pool is approximately 0.6 gpm which translates to a pool level depletion rate of one foot per eleven days. Based on this very low maximum depletion rate, external cooling of the l spent fuel pool is not required. Technical Sper:ifications require that the water level above the spent fuel be a least P twenty-one feet. In addition, it should be noted that pool water

' level is alarmed in the control room and alarm response procefures exist to provide appropriate operator action.

CHAPTER 11 RADIOACTIVE WASTE MANAGEMENT  ;

11.1 RADIATION SOURCE TERMS The description contained under this heading in the latest revision of Shoreham USAR remains unchanged as it is used to develop the basic design criteria of the plant. However, the actual source terms in the plant's present defueled condition are as follows:  !

a. Liquid Radioactivity Sources i As of August 1989, since all SNPS' fuel had been placed in the spent fuel pool, there were no liquid sources with nuclide concentrations greater than the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD),

outside of radwaste streams. It must be recognized that in the future some concentrations greater than LLD will be seen (e.g.,

as sludge at the bottom of sumps and the suppression pool are processed to Radwaste). However, these should be minor and temporary occurrences. Sources related to the decontamination L

(, and decommissioning should also be minor, as the degree of +

overall plant contamination is low. These liquid sources would '

be dealt with in accordance with the Liquid Radwaste, ALARA, and Health Physics programs as discussed in DSAR Sections 11.2, 12.1, and 12.5, respectively. ,

Isotopic concentrations above the LLD levels in the Radwaste System as of 6/30/89 are indicated in Table 11.1-1, from References 2, 3 and 4.

l b. Gaseous Sources There are no detectable gaseous sources at SNPS, either present or anticipated. This statement is supported by the fact that the Semi-Annual Radiological Effluent Release Report for the first and second quarter 1989 (Reference 1) indicates there were no detectable releases during the six-month period, either from the offgas system or the various building exhaust systems.

c. Activated Materials Sources It is expected that materials which were located in the reactor

! vessel during low power testing (eg, control rods, TIPS, IRMs, I and the like) have been activated to some extent. With the exception of some portions of the liquid radwaste system (10 mrem /hr maximum), dose rates outside of plant systems are very g

low, less than 0.5 mrem /hr. These low dose rates are indicative of a low deposition of sources within plant systems.

! 11-1

v  :

() SHOREHAN DSAR l

There may be a minor amount of activation source material L deposited within plant systems. However, the level of this f activity, and indeed of the activation products within the reactor vessel itself, are not considered significant compared to the spent fuel sources described in Section 12.2.

11.2.3.4.1 Conditions and Assumptigng This accident (raised in USAR Section 11.2.3.4) postulates the simultaneous failure of the liquid radwaste system tanks in or ,

associated with the radwaste building. These tanks hold the i radioactivity and potentially radioactive liquid waste from the floor drains, equipment drains, nonradioactive chemical wastes, l and processed liquid affluents. The tanks (and their capacities)  :

that are assumed to fail are:

1. Waste collector tanks: Two at 25,000 gal each (Contents are insignificant 1y radioactive).
2. Floor drain tanks: Two at 25,000 gal each (Contents are insignificant 1y radioactive). .
3. Regenerant liquid and evaporator feed tanks: Two at 25,000 )

gal each (contents are insignificant 1y radioactive).

4. Recovery sample tanks: Two at 25,000 gal each (located outside the radwaste building contents are insignificant 1y radioactive) ,

() 5. Discharge waste sample tanks:

(located outside the radwaste building)

Two at 25,000 gal each j

6. Spent resin tanks one at 4,700 gal (Section 11.5)

The source concentrations in the above are described in DSAR Table 11.1-1.

11.2.3.4.2 Accident Description The accident description can be considered as described in Section 11.2.3.4.2 of the USAR.

11.2.3.4.3 Accident Analysis This section remains as presented in the USAR except that:

1. A conservative airborne partition factor of 1.0E-03 is assumed for all isotopic activities listed in DSAR Table 11.1-1, with the exception of Tritium (H-3), for which it is assumed that all the activity evolves.
2. Ground release atmospheric dispersion factors are assumed, as given in USAR Table 15.1-3, for the EAB.
3. The breathing rate of persons offsite is assumed to be O 3.47E-04 cubic meters per second, consistent with Regulatory Guides 1.3 and 1.25. For other age groups the breathing rate was obtained from the ratio of the maximum age group rates

. given in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference J).

11.2.6 Estimated Releases Liquid effluent releases are expected to be minimal with the fuel in the spent fuel pool. This is based on the fact that during the period from June 1988 through May 1989, only one release had an isotopic concentration greater than LLD.

The quantity of the' annual release of contaminated liquids is conservatively estimated by noting that the discharge volume from I SNPS is approximately 5,000,000 gallons per year.

water will be used, if necessary, for dilution so that the discharged effluent concentration in the Long Island Sound will not exceed that preLcribed in 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table II, j Column 2.

Treated radioactive effluents are collected in the discharge sample tanks. The filled tank is sampled, and then discharged at a maximum rate of 150 gpm for a period of approximately 2.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />. If necessary, the treated effluent is diluted with about 8000 gpm of service water prior to discharge into the sound.

Thus, if necessary a dilution factor of approximately 50 may be t obtained during actual discharge.

No credit is taken for the external dilution factor, i.e. the mixing ratio in the Sound, for service water.

l dose is conservatively obtained by assuming each batch liquid release contains the maximum batch activity concentration of 7.83E-08 uCi/cc of-Co-60, and the release volume is approximately 5,000,000 gallons per year. Assuming no dilution, the resulting doses are as follows:

11.6 OFFSITE RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM l

DISCUSSION j 1

The objectives of SNPS' Offsite Radiological Environmental l Monitoring Program [REMP) are to identify and measure plant generated radioactivity in the environment and to calculate the potential dose to the surrounding population. SNPS' REMP is designed to comply with the Plant's Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) and NRC Regulatory Guide 4.15. REMP data is I acquired by sampling various media in the environment and then j analyzing these samples for radioisotopes; Tables 11.6.3-1 and O

11.6.3-2 detail the REMP sampling / analyzing program. Since REMP l resulta vary for each sample and location, several sampling locations were selected for each medium using available 11-11

. __ _ __ _ __._.-_ . . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . - _ _ _ _ ~ _ _ __. _

1 l SHOREHAM DSAR i

L meteorological, land, and water use data. The range of analyses performed on a sample depend on the type of sample taken.

Sampling locations are designated as either indicator or control.

Indicator locations provide representative measurements of radiation and radioactive materials for those exposure pathways ,

and radionuclides (from SNPS) that lead to the highest potential radiation exposures. Control'1ocations are placed sufficiently far from SNPS so that they will be beyond the measurable influence of SNPS or any other nuclear facility. This monitoring ,

program implementsSection IV.B.2 of Appendix I to 10CFR Part 50, -

by verifying that measured concentrations of radioactive L

materials and direct radiation are representative of the actual contamination levels and doses to the public.

SNPS' REMP has been subdivided over three distinct time intervals: Preoperational REMP (prior to SNPS' initially achieving criticality), Operational REMP (from initial criticality until removal of the fuel from the core), and Post-Defuel REMP (after the core was transferred to the spent fuel pool).

Preoperational REMP was performed to identify and determine O' background levels of environmental activity around SNPS.

l Preoperational REMP also served to verify that indeed the media being sampled and analyzed is sensitive to radiological fluctuations in SNPS' environs (indicator locations) and to provide ef fective monitoring of potential critical pathways.

Preoperational and Operational REMP samples within the aquatic environment included surface water, algae, fish, invertebrates (clams, lobsters, etc.) and sediment. The atmospheric environment was sampled for airborne particulates, iodine, and noble gases. Milk, potable water, precipitation, game and food L

products were obtained from the terrestrial environment. Direct radiation was measured using thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs).

l The range of analyres for each sample weres. gamma spectrometry,

' Sr-89 and Sr-90; I-131; H-3, gross beta, direct radiation and l noble gases. Under Post-Defuel REMP, several of the above sampling locations and/or range of analyses are discontinued.

The current Post-Defuel REMP program is outlined in' Tables L

11.6.3-1 & 11.6.3-2.

Preoperational REMP began in February 1977 and continued through 1984, although the official Preoperational REMP period; i.e. the time frame against which the data base from Operational REMP was compared, occurred during 1983 and 1984. The Operational REMP began on February 15, 1985 when initial criticality was achieved.

Except for reactor operator training programs which required the O reactor to operate at '0.0% power' (during 1988), SNPS has not generated radioisotopes since the last 5.0% power test, completed on June 6, 1987. Comparisons between the above two phases of 11-12 ,

i SHORERAM DSAR ,

REMP were documented in each Semiannual Radiological Effluent l Release Report. ,

As of August 9, 1989, SNPS' core was transferred to the spent fuel pool -- as part of the agreement between LILCO, state and local governments not to operate Shoreham. _This transfer prevents criticality from being reestablished. In addition, since SNPS' last 5.0% power test was completed-during June 1987, per Ref. 9, virtually all iodines and gaseous effluents have

- decayed away. Consequently, the surveillance requirements for SNPS' Post-Defuel REMP were reduced to below the operational level.

Justification for Reducing REMP to Post-Defuel Surveillance Levels.

L Pursuant to Reg Guide 4.1, once the initial core of the licensee has reached the point (in time) of maximum burnup, and the t

licensee has demonstrated (using results from environmental media or calculations) that the doses and concentrations associated

  • with a particular pathway are sufficiently small (comparable to preoperational levels), then the number of media sampled in the pathway and the frequency of sampling may be reduced to normal

() Tech Spec requirements. Since (as of August 9, 1989) the core has been in the spent fuel pool, the initial core has " exceeded" the point of maximum burnup. i It should be noted that the concept of " normal" Tech Spec ,

requirements as referred to in Reg. Guide 4.1, refers to a fully operational station with normal surveillance requirements. Reg.

Guide 4.1 does not account for the unique condition at SNPS.

Consequently, the justification for the reduced surveillance ,

program will be performed in two steps. Step one reduces Operational REMP to the level mandated when SNPS was to become z operational. Step two reduces the surveillance program further, to the revised requirements corresponding to the defueled L condition.

Dose calculations to SNPS' environs (1983 - 1988) were performed by analyzing positive concentrations of radioactivity detected in collected samples. Table 11.6.1-4 compares the radiological impact from each major pathway to the public during SNPS' preoperational and operational REMPs. Specifically, the radiological impact during SNPS' 5.0% power testing program (1985

- 1987) was compared to preoperational REMP.

In all cases, the calculated doses during both the operational and preoperational phases of REMP were comparable. Therefore, no environmental radioactivity was identified (during any of the O 5.0% power tests) as having originated at SNPS. These results satisfy the criteria established in Reg. Guide 4.1 for reducing post-defuel REMP to the level originally mandated by SNPS' license. The sampling points not required by the license are 11-13

SUMMARY

/ CONCLUSION

1) Examination of the radiological impact to REMP locations which are to be eliminated -- From 1983 (preoperational RCMP) through 1988 (which encompasses SNPS' 5.0% power testing program) -- indicates no measured increase in environmental contamination; refer to Table 11.6.1-4.
2) As of August 9, 1989, SNPS' core was transferred to the spent  !

fuel pool; thus, the initial core has reached maximum burnup. l Per Regulatory Guide 4.1, if the above two conditions are 3) met, then the cperational phase of REMP may be reduced to the requirements that were written when SNPS was to be operated l as designed. i i

4) The post-operational REMP surveillance program may be reduced to the requirements as delineated in DSAR Chapter 16, developed after SNPS' core was transferred to the spent fusi pool, becaures

! a) Criticality will not be reestablished at SNPS. As of August 9, 1989, no additional fission / activation products will be f generated; b) SNPS' last 5.0% power test was completed on June 6, 1987, which means that with the exception of I-129 and Kr-85, all l remaining gaseous effluents have decayed away; and -l J

c) the only possible release paths for the remaining soluble or '

(

particulate effluents is through either the spent fuel pool cleanup or makeup water systems (independent systems with no direct release path to the general public), or the radwaste '

treatment systems (liquid and gaseous pathways) through which l effluents are being or could be processed. l l

L 11.6.1 Obiectives of REMP 11.6.1.1 Preoperational REM _P l

The objectives of the Preoperational REMP were:

! 1. To identify and determine baseline radiological characteristics in the environment around SNPS (these background levels were then compared with data collected ,

6uring actual plant operation);

l 2. To assure that the n.edia being sampled and analyzed are l sensitive to fluctuations in the radiological characteristics

! of the environs af. SNPS, and to assure that REMP will be responsive to radioactive discharges from SNPS (i.e., to identify indicator locations and critical pathways);

3. To provide effective monitoring of critical pathways of radiological effluents to unrestricted areas; and l 4. To train personnel and evaluate procedures, equipment and techniques which are utilized in the Operational and Post-Defuel phase of REMP, including emergency response

() capabilities.

The yearF 1983 and 1984 served as the official preoperational period, as stipulated in Reference 8. All data collected during this period were used in developing a baseline for ultimate comparison with operational data. From the levels and fluctuations of radioactivity analyzed in environmental samples it was concluded that sensitive indicators of radioactivity for the environment around SNPS had been selected. Sensitive indicators revealed minute quantities of radioactive fallout from i

- the October 1980 atmospheric nuclear weapons test by' the People's l Republic of China during 1980 and 1981, in addition to  ;

radioactivity remaining from two decades of atmospheric testing. l Airborne particulate samples registered an increase in gross beta levels, along with identifying the gamma emitting isotopes Er-95, Nb-95, Ru-103 and Ce-141. Also in 1983 and 1984, REMP sampling I identified low levels of iodins-131 in Port Jefferson Harbor area i aquatic samples. This was attributed to local hospitals treating patients for thyroid carcinoma.

Along with these anomalies in the environment, expected normal background radioactivity was measured in REMP samples. Aquatic samples consisting of surface water, fish, invertebrates, aquatic plants and sediment were chosen and reflected the normal background radiation found in this environment. The atmospheric

/~' environment was sampled for airborne particulate matter, iodine, I and noble gases. All airborne radiciodine analyses were below detectable levels. In addition, milk, potable water, game, food products, beach sediments and rain water were sampled. The 11-16

1.y _ __

s.

SHOREHAM DSAR results obtained from the analyses of these samples were typical l l of the radioactivity values usually associated with samples of

these types. All radioiodine analyses of milk were below detectable levels. Direct radiation levels were relatively low, r, 'and approximately the same at all locations. No unusual i radiological characteristics were observed in the environs of '

SNPS during 1983 and 1984. A summary of the annual program results for 1983 and 1984 is given in USAR Tables 11,6.1-1 and 2. ,

l 11.6.1.2 Operational REMP The objectives of Operational REMP were:

1) Identify and measure plant-related radioactivity in the environment for the calculation of potential doses to the public.

2). Identify excessive radionuclida concentrations of limited duration, so that appropriate action may be taken.

I

3) Determine the long-term variation in radionuclide concentration, or
4) determine the effects of plant effluents on the environment. j f 5) Comply with regulatory requirements and provide records to l l

- document compliance.

6) Comply with the REMP requirements as outlined previously. l Operational REMP used the Preoperational data base to identify b plant-contributed radiation, and to evaluate the possible effects of radioactive effluents on the environment. The Preoperational and Operational phases of REMP were designed to comply with i Regulatory Guide 4.15 (5) and the associated Branch Technical I Position (4).

Analyses'of the environmental samples show results (8) consistent with those found during the preoperational years (1983 - 1984).

Sensitive indicators revealed minute quantities of radioactive fallout remaining from the October, 1980 atmospheric nuclear weapons test by the Peoples Republic of China. Radioactivity traces from the previous two decades of international above ,

ground atomic bomb testing were also recorded. Radioactivity I increases from the accident at the Soviet Union's Chernobyl i Nuclear Power Plant (during April, 1986) were also measured.

Along with these environmental anomalies, expected normal background radioactivity was measured in REMP samples between ,

1985 and 1988. USAR Table 11.6.1-3 summarizes results from REMP

.O during 1985, and DSAR Table 11.6.1-4 presents a comparison of preoperatonal and operational REMP data from 1983 through 1988.

r ' Differences in the execution of Post-Defuel REMP account for both L the permanent defueling of SNPS, and experience gained during the

,preoperational and operational REMP phases.

11.6.2 Potential Pathways 11.6.2.1 Liquid Effluent Pathways L

The exposure-pathways for liquid effluents are p 1. External exposure from radionuclides in water; end

[ 2. Ingestion of fikh. and shellfish containing radiottuclides.

The concentrations of radionuclides expected to be released to the service water are listed in Section 11.2. Dilution of-these concentrations in Long Inland Sound is discussed in Se'ction 11.2.8.

USAR Section 11.6.2.1 contains detailed discussions about the A projected doses-from various liquid pathways. With the updated

. \d source terms at. described in the DSAR (Sections 11.1 and 12.2),

future doses from liquid pathways are expected to be a.small (

fraction of the doses presented in the USAR. See DSAR Section 11.2'.9 for dose calculations.

I ~31.6.2.2 Gaseous Effluent Pathways The exposure pathways for gaseous effluents are:

1) Submersion in a cloud of noble gas;
2) Drinxing milk from a milking animal pastured in an areas of long-lived particulates;
3) Eating leafy vegetables on which particulates have deposited.

The calculated air dose (using REMP when SNPS was to operate as designed) at the north-northeast site boundary is 1.1 mrad /yr from gamma radiation and 1.2 mrad /yr from beta radiation. Doses from gaseous effluent pathways are summarized in USAR Table 11~6.2-3. Computational methods are discussed in Section 11.6.2.3.

A dairy survey is performed annually to determine the location of any milking animal within a 5-mile radius of SNPS. When a milking cow or goat is found, annual doses are calculated using either current meteorological or activity release dat-, .r

() accordance with the methods specified in the Shoreham Offsite Dose Calculation Manual.

'11.6.3.1.2 Atmospheric Environment The atmospheric environment is examined by analyzing airborne particulates collected on Gelman Type A/E filters using low volume air samples (approximately 1 cfm). The samplers used l are equipped with vacuum recorders for sample volume correction J

L and to indicate sample validity and maintenance problems when E they occur.- Should the sampler lose vacuum due to a leak the vacuum level reading will drop to zero. Since this may occur without a-corresponding loss of electric supply the exact time of the maintenance problem will be evident on the recorder chart.

Sample volumes-are measured using dry gas meters and corrected L for differences between the actual pressure that the volume meter sees and the average atmospheric pressure._ sample volumes are corrected to standard pressure using average weekly barometric pressure (measured at Environmental Engineering Department, Melville) and air sampler vacuum. readings. Time totalizers l indicate the duration of time the sample is taken, Air samples are collected quarterly at St. Joseph's Villa and Lanalyzed for noble gases (Krypton-85). The samples are collected ,

using a modified low pressure air compressor. An interim holding i tank is evacuated to 20 in. Hg. Outside air is drawn into the h

- (,/ interim holder and then transferred to a sample tank for y transport to the laboratory for analysis.

1 11.6.3.1.3 Terrestrial Environment l l

l The terrestrial environment is examined by analyzing samples of L, milk and food products. When available, milk samples are L collected quarterly, except during the pasture season (May l- through October) when the sampling is increased to monthly. Milk samples are prepared for shipment in accordance with the l instruction of the laboratory performing the analysis. Food -

products consisting of vegetables and fruit are collected from area farm stands and shipped fresh to the laboratory.

1 11.6.3.1.4 Direct Radiation 1 Direct radiation levels in the environs are measured with energy compensated calcium sulfate (CaSO4:Dy) TLDs, each containing four separate readout areas. The TLDs are annealed by LILCO prior to

placement in-the field. One TLD is placed at each of the 18 l locations, and exchanged on a quarterly bases; these locations

( correspond to the 16 meteorological sectors in the general areas of the site boundary, plus two control locations (actual 1 locations are listed in Table 11.6.3-1). The units are then l packaged and shipped to the laboratory for analysis.

CHAPTER 12 RADIATION PROTECTION 12.1 ASSURING THAT OPERATIONAL RADIATION EXPOSURES ARE AS LOW AS REASONABLY ACHIEVABLE The Shoreham ALARA Program, the intent of which is to maintain operational radiation exposures (ORES) to levels as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA), is described in the USAR, Section 12.1. The program is applicable in its entirety to Shoreham in a defueled condition, with the following exceptions:

A) Within the Nuclear Engineering Support Organization, the radiation protection function is found within the Nuclear Analysis function, as described in Chapter 13 of the DSAR. l (Reference USAR Section 12.1.1.3.2, Review of Modification of Operations. The basis of this change is a reorganization of the Nuclear Engineering Support Organization.)

4 B) Several of the items listed under Section 12.1.2, Design Considerations, are no longer applicable or have been revised. Specifically, charcoal has been removed from the Radwaste vent filters j

(considerations 10 & 12), I the' Radiation Monitoring System is now discussed in DSAR Section-12.3 (consideration 11),

demin water hose stations are located on the radwaste building floor (consideration 7),

1 shielded radwaste shipping casks and remote handling l techniques are not generally used (considerations 15 and 16),  !

i and the discussion of gaseous radwaste sources in i consideration 15 is no longer relevant, as the offgas system is shut down. ,

1 (Reference USAR Section 12.1.2, Design Considerations. The justification for lack of charcoal is the fact that as per l DSAR Sections 11.1 and 12.2, Shoreham does not possess a meaningful quantity of radiciodines. The low levels of radioactivity in the solid radwaste do not justify using shielded casks and remote handling.)

12-1 l

,((~} SHOREHAM DSAR v

C)' All visitors within the Protected Area are escorted by qualified personnel. Those visitors requiring access to the radiologically controlled area (RCA) are given an appropriately abbreviated indoctrination in protection against radiation, prior to their entry into.the RCA.

(Reference USAR Section 12.1.3.1.1, Use of Individual Personnel Monitoring Devices. The basis of this change is a more stringent application of security requirements for visitors to Shoreham).

D) With the generally very low dose rates associated with the plant's defueled condition, there is no longer a requirement to have all personnel (permanent and temporary) equipped with approved dosimetry devices upon their entry to the radiologically-controlled area (see Section 12.5.2.1, Access Control. Rather, only individuals working on a Radiation

' Work Permit (RWP) may have approved-dosimetry issued. That the requirements of 10CFR20.202 are met by this approach will be assured by the ongoing station radiation surveillance program (as described in USAR Section'12.5.3.1), as well as the posting.of thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) in general access areas of the RCA.

(Reference USAR Section 12.1.3.1.1, Use of Individual.

Personnel Monitoring Devices. This change is justified by i .the low dose rates seen presently at Shoreham, and by the  ;

very low historical man-rem data in Section 12.5 of the  !

l DSAR.)

It should be noted that the Shoreham station's original physical design for radiation protection (e.g., shield walls, penetrations, sample stations, etc.) remains generally unchanged from that described in the USAR, Sections 12.1 and 12.3. This is .

despite the fact _that the actual source strengths and unshielded dose rates do not necessitate the degree of protection afforded.

The physical design is based upon the presumption of plant operations, with the associated source terms and unshielded dose rates as described in the USAR. Although they will not generally be needed, operational considerations described in the USAR (e.g, L the precautions for high dose rate jobs -- in excess of 100  !

mrem /hr) will be maintained.

12.2 RADIATION SOURCES 12.2.1 Contained Sources Fuel Sources The Shoreham reactor core has undergone three periods of low power (0-5%) testing over the past four years. The low power t

l-tests are summarized below:

12-2

SHOREHAM DSAR Specific Burnup Power Test Period Duration MWD /MT Range %

7/7-10/7/85 ~T3'3ays 27.8 UIO - 3.3 8/5-8/30/86 26 days 13.8 0.0 - 4.0 5/26-6/6/87 12 days 6.7 0.0 - 3.5 Total 1173 The detailed profiles of the above three low power test periods have been input to the ORIGEN2 (Reference 1) burnup code, along '

with the physical characteristics of the reactor fuel and bundle structural elements. Results of this analysis (Reference 2) are given in Table 12.2-1. The activities correspond to two years decay after the last.burnup period, and reflect total core inventories for those isotopes with greater than 10 curies. ,

ThatthesourcestbengthsgiveninTable12.2.-1arereasonable is evidenced by measurements taken during the defueling of the reactor. Dose rate measurements were taken at one foot from a number of spent fuel bundles, and the maximum values from each-bundle were tabulated. Dose rates at one foot (as a function of bundle burnup)_ were calculated from the source terms presented in Table 12.2-1,-using the point kernel code QADMOD (Reference 5),

and the results compared to the measured dose rates. Results are given in Table 12.2.-2. That the calculated and measured bundle

(). maximum dose rates agree within about 10% on average gives-assurance that the calculated source terms in Table 12.2-1 are reasonably accurate, j_ As can be seen from the Table 12.2-1 only.long-lived isotopes remain from the original actinides and fission / activation products created, along with their equilibrium daughters. By far the.most radiologically significant( from a gamma dose rate standpoint, are the Cs-137/Ba-137m pair; about 80% of the whole body dose rate from a spent fuel bundle is due to the Ba-137m photon (Reference 3). For dose assessment of accidental gaseous releases (e.g. , a postulated fuel handling accident) , only Kr-85 L is meaningful (Reference 4).

12.2.2 Airborne Radioactive Material Sources The statements below apply when systems are closed up. When ,

potentially contaminated systems are opened, the RWP controls, as stipulated in DSAR Section 12.5, will minimize airborne sources.

Reactor Building L There is no significant source of airborne activity assumed to

12.3.4 Radiation' Monitoring Instrumentation-In order.to support the storage of the fuel in the fuel pool,  :

SNPS will need process and effluent radiation monitoring instrumentation, and area and airborne radiation monitoring instrumentation..

. Process and Effluent Radiation Monitoring System TheLprocess and effluent radiation monitoring system is designed in accordance with General Design. Criterion 64. All normal paths for release of radioactive materials are monitored to ensure compliance with the requirements of 10CFR20, 10CFR50, and Regulatory Guide 1.21.

Table 12.3.4A lists the monitors in service, and Table 12.3.4B

] ) provides data for each monitor.

Normally, nonradioactive systems that may become significantly contaminated by leaks from radioactive systems are monitored continually to_ ensure that no condition hazardous to the l operating personnel or to the general.public develops. For

-effluent streams that discharge to the. environs, sample points are located downstream of the last point of-possible radioactive fluid addition ~to=the effluent being monitored.

All monitors in the proceso and effluent radiation monitoring system detect gross activity levels and readout and alarm'in the main control room. Alarms in the main control room are by annunciators and cathode ray tube (CRT) display.

There are three normal effluent release points from the station that require radiation monitors: the station ventilation exhaust, the liquid radwaste effluent, and the reactor building salt water drain tank.

Area Radiation and Airborne Radioactivity Monitoring Instrumentation This section contains a description of the area and airborne radiation monitoring systems. All channels have local readout by means of a-log-ratemeter and local audible and visual alarms.

Each channel has high radiation and fail alarms which are annunciated locally and in the main control room. The area monitors are provided with an audio and visual alert and high radiation alarms. Monitors are placed in areas where personnel 12-5

-normally have access and where there is a possibly that radiation levels could become significant.

All airborne monitors are'offline monitors and are designed in accordance,with ANSI N 13.1-1969, " Guide to Sampling Airborne Radioactive-Materials in Nuclear Facilities." Sample lines are ,

kept as short as possible to minimize plate out while allowing  !

the monitor to be located in an accessible area.

' Airborne radiation monitoring is provided where potentially radioactive sources exists. Each of these monitors is provided ,

with,an isokinetic nozzle which is sized to obtain a

-representative air sample at the normal flow in the ventilation duct from which the sample is taken.

Table 12.3.4B lists the airborne monitors, and Table 12.3.4C L - lists the area monitors.

[

Radiation Monitoring System, Computers The RMS is equipped with redundant computers powered from U.P.S.

i 1297-INV-005/TSC Black Battery /69 kV primary feed. These units provide continual surveillance for all airborne, area, process, p)'

I s_ and effluent radiation monitors. Communication with the computer is through keyboard equipped CRT displays in the main control room, the health physics office, the process computer room, and the technical support center.

l Inservice Inspection, Calibration, and Maintenance l

'The operabill'ty of each channel of the area and airborne RMS is l checked periodically from the main control room or manually at the monitor. Both systems are checked periodically or as specified-by the plant technical specifications.

! Calibration of all monitors iis normally conducted at an interval of 18 months. This calibration will allow indication in a low, l

mid, and high response range of each monitor.

12.4 DOSE ASSESSMENT 12.4.1 pesign Obiectives The design of the shielding was originally based on conservative estimates of the occupancy time required in each area of the plant,-under operating conditions. An effort has been made to keep the dose to plant personnel as low as reasonably achievable

( ALARA) under all conditions, including the defueled condition.

() Table 12.4-1 lists the six zone designations that were originally established, along,with the maximum allowable dose rates and estimated occupancy times for each area. With the plant in its l

present condition, with spent fuel stored underwater in the pool, there are no occupiable areas which are Zone III or higher.

~12.4.2' Airborne Activity Jur area within the Shoreham' f acility is described as an " airborne i radioactivity l area" if the sum of the concentrations of all

- airborne radionuclides divided by their respective Maximum Permissible Concentrations (MPCs) (from 10CFR20, Appendix B,

" Table 1, column 1)-- escoeds 0.25. At Shoreham,-there are no 'l "airbornt t dioactivity areas" in the defueled condition. With o

'the fuel in the spent fuel pool, and insignificant quantities of radioactive material elsewhere (see Sections 11.1 and 12.2), it l is not expected that nirborne radioactivity areas will exist in l the future, unless systems which are currently anticipated to l remain closed are opened to the atmosphere. In this instance, j the radiation work permit procedure (see Section 12.5) will be applied'to assure there is no release of contamination into the L air.

With exposures reasonably expected to be much less than 2 MPCa-hrs per day and/or 10 MPCa-hrs per week, paragraph 103(a)

(3) of 10CFR20 indicates that exposure, and the-resulting internal doses, need not be included in the dose assessment to

l. With no " airborne radioactivity areas" postulated, L -individuals.

doses are thus taken to be essentially zero for the defueled

. condition.

It should-be noted that the.above conclusion will be confirmed in actual practice by the whole body counting program (see Section i 12. 5 ) '. Procedures are in place for taking appropriate actions,

  • including investigation, when any positive whole body count l

L

-occurs.in excess of 1% of the maximum permissible organ burden (MPOB), or 1% of the maximum permissible body burden (MPBB).

12.4.3 Occupational Dose Assessment occupational dose at Shoreham is expected to be essentially zero for the defueled condition. This conclusion has three bases:

1) At present, the dose rates in occupiable areas are virtually all less than 0.5 mrem /hr, as described in Section 12.3.

There are no sources of radiation present which would cause the present dose rates to increase to any significant extent.

2) In the defueled condition, occupancy in measurable dose rate areas is expected to be less than or equal to that in the recent past at Shoreham.
3) The recent collective station dose history at Shoreham is as l

L follows (TLD data collected in response to the requirements

.r~%. of 10CFR20.407):

Landauer to Panasonic TLDs, doses have been insignificant, and ,

due almost entirely to small statistical fluctuations _rather than I 1

actual doses.

Based on the above statements, it is anticipated that-occupational dose at Shoreham will be essentially zero in the l'

L defueled condition. Doses will of course be measured, as indicated in the Health Physics Program, Section 12.5.

I 12.4.4 Offsite Dose Assessment There are no sources (eg, N-16) in the defueled condition which could lead to offsite direct doses, either by direct radiation or L

! "skyshine", based on the source terms presented in Sections 11.1 1 and 12.2. As such, offsite doses to the population are projected to be zero in the defueled condition. This conclusion will be confirmed by the REMP, as described in Section 11.6.

12.5 HEALTH PHYSICS PROGRAM The Shoreham Health Physics Program, the intent of which is to provide for the protection of all permanent and temporary personnel and all visitors from radiation'and radioactive materials in a manner consistent with Federal and State 1 regulations during all phases of operation, is described in l Section 12.5 of the USAR. The program is applicable in its l entirety to the defueled condition at Shoreham, with the  ;

-following exceptions:

A) Handling of new fuel is no longer applicable to Shoreham. l (Reference USAR Section 12.5.1.2, Personnel l Experience and Qualifications. The basis of this change is 1 that with the Settlement Agreement with New York State, no I new fuel will be brought onsite.) l B) _ The laundry facility does not contain an automated respirator l washer, unloading table for same, or <. respirator dryer.

Cleaning of respirators is done by hand methods when 1 i

O; 1 necessary. Respirator fitting may at some time in the future be moved from the Annex Building to another onsite location.

Protective clothing is to be cleaned either onsite or offsite, as conditions warrant.

?

('eference R USAR Section 12.5.2.1, Location of Equipment, Instrumentation and Facilities. The basis of this change is the fact that with no airborne areas currently identified, and none expected in the defueled condition, requirements for respirator use are infrequent. Also, the

-need to clean protective clothing is significantly reduced.)

C) The monitoring station where personnel exiting from-the controlled area frisk themselves will no longer be in general use, unless justified by the overall workload in the controlled area. Similarly, the frisking station between the Turbine Building and the Control Room'will be removed.. In general, frisking will only be done at the exit of the specific iobsite, as controlled by the RWP.~

I_nstrumentation and Facilities, Section 12.5.3.3.1, Access Control, and Figure 12.5.3-1. - The basis of this change is the fact that there is no significant contamination within the controlled area, except perhaps at specific jobsites n (controlled by the RWP). This fact is confirmed by the l -

ongoing surveillance program.) '

_( f D) The numberc of detectors and monitoring instruments will not necessarily be maintained as indicated in USAR.Section 12.5.2.2.'.Rather, the number maintained will be as required t by the defueled plant's activities and number of personnel.

L (Reference USAR Section 12.5.2.2, Types of Detectors and Monitoring Instruments. Justification of this change is the reduced surveillance requirements and number of plant personnel.)

E) Radiation Work Permits are required for work under any of the l- following conditions:

l ~. Work in a posted radiation area.

2. Entry into a posted high radiation area.

l 3. Work in a posted contaminated area (see-Item F below).

4. Entry into airborne radioactivity areas.

l- 5. Breach of a' radioactively contaminated system boundary.

l (Reference USAR Section 12.5.3.2, Radiation Work Permits.

The basis of this change is a change to station procedures.

F) Under the discussion of access control, add the definition of a contaminated area:

'rev.1.)

l G). Under the discussion of access control, the " secondary access l facility" no longer exists.

-(Reference USAR Section 12.5.3.3.1, Access Control. The basis for this change is that as of September 1, 1989, the l secondary access facility was taken out of service.)

H) The Corporate ALARA Review Committee (CARC) now administratively reports to the Assistant Vice President, Nuclear' Operations.

O (Reference USAR Section 12.5.3.3.4, Post-Operations Review.

See L The basis for this change is an organizational change.

L Chapter 13 of the DSAR for further details.)

l I) As stated in DSAR Section 12.1D, there is no longer a need to

. provide dosimetry to personnel entering the RCA, unless they are. required by an RWP.

(Reference USAR'Section 12.5.3.5, Health Physics Training Program. For justification, see DSAR Section. 12.1.3.1.1.)

It should be noted that some of the procedural requirements or commitments indicated under the USAR Health Physics Program will not-apply in the defueled condition. For example, no areas requiring reevaluation for extra shielding are anticipated, due ,

L to the low current source terms (Reference USAR Section l 12.5.3.3). However, the procedures and commitments remain in place in the extremely unlikely event that they should be required.

=a ACCIDENT ANALYSIS

6 15.1 GENERAL Analytical Objective
  • Chapter 15 of SNPS USAR provides the results of analyses of the spectrum of' transient and accident events which are postulated to occur with the plant operating initially at up to maximum power.

The purpose of this analysis is to identify USAR transients and

-accidents that apply to the storage and handling of the low burnup fuel.

The analysis is based on the defueled condition of the plant, L 1.e., the fuel is removed from the core and is stored in the spent fuel pool. The total decay heat is approximately 550 watts, which'is small enough that it could be removed by passive cooling and would not require the fuel pool cooling system.

l- Normal and emergency makeups are discussed in Chapter 9.

As the reactor will not be operated and the fuel is not in the i

I)

' reactor, most-of the USAR Chapter 15 events cannot occur.  ;

Approach'to Safety Analysis l

E The, safety parameter evaluated for each transient of USAR Chapter l 15'is the Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR) which is a measure o of. fuel cladding integrity. Maximum Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (MAPLHGR) is the safety parameter for the reactor

( LOCA-related accidents, and indicates whether the peak cladding temperature and the zirconium-water reaction is below the specified limits. As the decay power level is extremely low during spent fuel storage,-and will not increase, MCPR and MAPLHGR limits cannot be-exceeded and are not applicable.

L Those transients and accidents of USAR Chapter 15 which pose the

) potential for a radiological release outside the primary l

containment are of primary concern.

Heat Generation-Analysis-One result from the ORIGEN2 calculation is a graph of decay heat or thermal power (in watts), as a function of time. Results of this analysis are presented in Figure 15.1-1. The calculated decay heat load as of June 1989 is approximately 0.55 kw.

15-1 l i

i

5(( )

7 7, SHOREHAM~DSAR c  ?

L It must be recognized that there are some limitations in the ORIGEN2 model, and potential inaccuracies in the calculational l

. processes of the code and its supporting data' sets. For instance, ORIGEN2 is a " point. reactor" model, and cannot deal L

L conveniently with the-spatial variations in fuel enrichment and.

l burnup. 'In addition, there are uncertainties associated with l- averaging of-nuclear cross-section data within the thermal, C resonance, and fission neutron energy ranges. Nevertheless, it is not expected that large uncertainties should occur in heat

! load estimates.. See the comparison of calculated to measures

( . dose rates in DSAR Section 12.2. This gives evidence that the L decay heat.-load calculations'are reasonable, as the same analysis

  1. (ORIGEN2) was used to generate both sets of data.

Analytical Categories k

L EachEUSAR Chapter'15 event is assigned to one of six analytical L

categories. .The analytical categories and the events in each analytical category are. discussed below.  ;

i 1. Decrease in Core Coolant _ Temperature

.This' analytical category of USAR Chapter 15 events includes

/~T the following events:

U Pressure Regulator Failure - Open L 15.1.5 l

~15.1.7 Feedwater-Controller Failure - Maximum Demand 15.1.8 Loss of'Feedwater Heating 15.1.9 Shutdown Cooling (RHR) Malfunction - Decreasing Temperature.

l

~in. In the spent fuel storage condition, the pressure regulator, feedwater controller, feedwater heating system and RHR system are not operating and all'four transients

! are, therefore, not applicable.

2. Increase in Reactor Pressure Since the generator, turbine, main steam isolation valve, pressure-regulator, feedwater system, condenser and RHR systems are not operating in support of nuclear fission, the following transients are not applicable:

15.1.19 Loss of AC Power L A loss of AC power condition can be postulated that will affect normal support systems. However, because of the-very low heat-generation rate (550 watts) large thermal capacity of the pool active fuel pool cooling is not required. Loss of normal cooling and makeup systems will result only in a very slow evaporation of the pool water.

This. evaporation rate is so slow that ample time exists to restore normal pool makeup sources so that pool level can be quickly restored. Thus, the passive protection.provided a0 by the spent fuel pool and low fuel decay heat eliminate

' ~

the need for active makeup requirements.. (The rate of i evaporation is discussed in Chapter'9.) l The loss of AC power will not in itself result in any l

release of radioactivity, as' fuel movement is disallowed by Tech Specs when AC power is lost (and is virtually impossible in any event), and the decay heat of the core is so low. Should the loss of AC power occur as part of any ,

other event which causes damage to the fuel'in the pool, j i

while the release in this case would not be monitored, the l offsite dose consequences would be incignificant.

Doses and dose rates are bounded by the " puff release" results J given in Sections 15.1.36 and 15.1.36A.

3. Decrease _in Reactor Coolant Flow Rate

! The recirculation pumps and recirculation flow controller are not operating in the defueled condition and therefore all the transients of this category are not applicable L 15.1.20 Recirculation Pump Trip 15.1.22 Recirculation Pump Seizure

Breaks Inside the Primary Containment (Loss-of-Coolant Accident) 15.1.35 Pipe Breaks Outside the Primary Containment (Steam Line Break Accident) 4 6.B Events Without Fuel Damage 15.1.29 Miscellaneous Small Releases Outside Primary Containment

. Releases that could result-from piping failures outside the primary containment include the pipe breaks in the fuel '

pool cleanup system. The resulting offsite dose will be negligible and are bounded by the Radwaste Tank Rupture accident.

15.1.29.1 Seismic Event Because the-spent fuel pool structure and fuel racks and handling equipment meet Seismic Category I requirements, a seismic event is not postulated to create a radiological release.

15.1.31 Main Condenser Gas Treatment' System Failure As the main condenser is not operating, there can be no offsite dose resulting from this event.

15.1.32 Liquid Radwaste Tank Rupture Should accident occur radioactivity could be released to the environment but the effect would be negligible.

when fuel is being handled. In this case, radioactive material < released as a result of fuel damage is available i for transport directly to the secondary containment. Table I 15.1.36-1 presents the parameters used in this analysis.

( .1 15.1.36.3 Accident Description l

The most severe fuel handling accident from a radiological viewpoint is the dropping of a fuel = assembly onto other fuel assemblies. The sequence of events is as follows: 1 e  ;

1. . The operator will initiate the evacuation of the
secondary' containment and securing of Secondary y Containment-doors, if necessary.

. 2~. The' fuel handling foreman will instruct personnel to go I immediately to the radiation protection personnel l decontamination area,'if necessary.

. 3. The fuel handling foreman will make the operator aware of the accident, 7

e- . 4. The operator will initiate action to determine the i s extent of potential radiation doses by measuring the radiation levels in the vicinity of or close to the secondary containment.

I

5. An HP technician will post the appropriate radiological i control signs at the entrance to the secondary containment.

(J' '

6. Before entry to the secondary containment is-made, a careful study of conditions, radiation levels, etc.,

will be performed.

15.1.36.5 HVAC Scenarios Considered As set forth in Section 15.1.36.6, the quantity of gaseous F fission-products in the fuel's gap which is-released will i not be large (2.52 Ci of Kr-85 only). Calculations .

L.

indicate that the reactor building refueling floor exhaust

. radiation monitoring system would not alarm and-consequently the RBSVS will not be actuated (i.e., the RBNVS continues to operate). As a' result, analyses were l

performed assuming either RBSVS or RBNVS system operation.

) Secondary containment discharge rates are 167 and 6580 percent / day for the RBSVS and RBNVS cases, respectively.

As a comparison case, a " puff" release over a short period of time (2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, as suggested by Regulatory Guide 1.25),

has been analyzed. Although this is not a design basis case, it is useful to compare it with the two HVAC cases.

Results for all three cases (RBSVS, RBNVS, and putf release) are given in the following sections.

'h SHOREHAM DSAR 15.1.36.6.1.1 Methods, Assumptions, and Conditions

?

The assumptions'used in the analysis of this accident are listed belows o 11 . The fuel assembly is dropped from the. maximum height n allowed by the fuel handling equipment.

l

2. The entire amount of potential energy, referenced to the top of the spent fuel racks, is available for j

application to the fuel assemblies involved in the accident...This assumption neglects the dissipation of l:

i some of the mechanical energy of the falling fuel h assembly $n the water above the racks and requires the ,

complete detachment of the assembly from the fuel hoisting equipment. This is possible'if the fuel assembly' handle, the fuel grapple, or the grapple. cable breaks.

f 3. None of the energy associated with the dropped fuel l: assembly-is absorbed by the fuel material (uranium dioxide).

15.1.36.6.1.2 Results and Consequences

~15.1.36.6.1.2.1 Fuel Damage l

. The analysis of USAR Section 15.1.36.5.1.2.1 applies to this accident. In that section of the USAR, it was assumed that 125. fuel rods would fail as a result of dropping the-fuel issembly into the reactor vessel. The same assumption is applied here.

15.1.36.6.1.2.2 Fission Product-Release From Fuel l Fission product releases for the fuel handling accident are determined from the inventory:in Table 12.2-1.

'Specifically, it is seen that only Kr-85 is of any significance with respect to gaseous releases. The only other gaseous isotope in this table is H-3, which would add, at most, 0.1% to the skin dose from Kr-85. Using the l above number of failed rods, and the assumptions given in j .. Regulatory Guide 1.25, the quantity of Kr-85 released, is as follows:-

Release = 1.56E+03Ci x 125 damaged rods 62 rods / bundle x 560 bundles in core

() x 1.5 radial peaking factor x 30% in gap = 2.52 C1 l

15.1.36.6.1.3 Radiological Effects Offsite-

~

Radiological exposures have been evaluated for the meteorological conditions, parameters, and assumptions given in Table 15.1.36-1. The results are given in Table 15.1.36-2.

p Control Room l-

.Because the amount of radioactivity released is so small, the l'- control. room air intake monitors will not alarm and are not required. The control room HVAC system will continue to function in its. normal operating mode. The resultant whole l

body and skin 30-day integrated doses are, at most, 9.59E-08

' and~2.08E-04 mrem, respectively, well below the 10CFR50 GDC 19 limits.

Discussion It is seen in Table 15.1.36-2 that the (0-2 hour) EAB and (0-30 day) LPZ integrated doses are many orders of magnitude  ;

~

below,10CFR100 guidelines. Results are graphically shown in.

L E

f'/)

k-

~ Figure 15.1.36-1. Furthermore, the maximum (t=0) dose rates (whole body and skin) are very low and, with the exception of the RBNVS case, below Technical Specifications. This indicates that the HVAC system in use in the reactor building has no meaningful effect on radiological consequences to-members of the public during a fuel handling accident with the present fuel source terms.

15.1.36A Worst Case Fuel Damage Event Scenario L

L Several " worst case", extremely conservative scenarios were examined. Specifically, for the three reactor building HVAC cases-analyzed in Section 15.1.36.5 (RBSVS operating, RBNVS operating, and puff release), instead of assuming the gap activity from 125 fuel rods is released (2.52 Ci Kr-85), it is assumed that all gaseous activity from the entire-core in l

the spent fuel pool is released (1.56E+03 Ci Kr-85). This

! _can only occur if all the fuel is postulated to be mechanically damaged and there is a complete release of

gaseous isotopes. The assumption of a complete release of the gaseous inventory is also very conservative with respect to the Regulatory Guide 1.25 assumption of a 30% release fraction given the low burnup condition of Shoreham spent Doses and dose rates are thus a factor of 617 higher

(, fuel.

than for the corresponding Regulatory Guide 1.25 cases. l l

15-10 1

I

SHOREHAM.DSAR

~

All other conditions and parameters indicated in Table 15.1.36-1 apply to these cases. Results'are given in Table 15.1.36A-1.

Discussion Even with the highly conservative release. quantity postulated above, the calculated whole body and skin dose at the EAB and

, LPZ are very small fractions (less than 0.0314) of the 10CFR100 dose guidelines. Results are graphically shown in l Figure 15.1.36A-1. Dose rates'for the postulated worst case scenario are above. current limits, but the duration of the high dose rates in the RBNVS and puff release cases is quite short (two hours or.less).

The STA shall have a bachelor's degree or equivalent in a n scientific or engineering discipline and have received specific

,' . training in the response'and analysis of the plant.for transients

- and accidents. The STA shall also receive training in plant design and layout, including the capabilities of instrumentation and controls in the control room. The licensee shall assign'

- normal duties to the STAS that pertain to the engineering aspects of assuring safe operations of the plant, including the review '

L and' evaluation of operating experience.

' delegate. functions that detract from or are subordinate-to the management responsibility for assuring safe operation of'the plant to other personnel not on duty in the control room.

[

L 1. The highest level of corporate management of each licensee L shall issue and periodically reissue a management directive l

that emphasizes the primary management responsibility of the L

shift supervisor for safet operation of the plant under all conditions on his shift and that clearly establishes his command duties.

-2. Plant procedures shall be reviewed to assure that the duties, responsibilities, and authority of the shift supervisor and

' ~

control room operators are properly defined to effect the

't establishment of a definite line of command and clear delineation of the command decision authority of the shift supervisor in the control room relative to other plant managment personnel. Particular emphasis shall be placed on the following:

l

l '

y E >

L SHORENAM'DSAR 1

a. The responsibility and authority of the shift supervisor shall be to maintain the broadest perspective of i

operat.ienal conditions affecting the safety of the plant as a matter of highest priority at all times when on duty

'in the control room. The principle shall be reinforced I that the shift supervisor should not become totally involved in any single operations in times of emergency-when multiple operations are required in the control room.

b. .The shift supervisor, until properly relieved, shall remain in the control room at all times during accident situations to direct the activities of control room F operators.. Persons authorized to relieve the shift supervisor shall be specified,
c. If the shift supervisor is temporarily absent from the control room during routine operations, a lead control room operator shall be designated to assume the control room command function. These temporary duties, responsibilities, and authority shall be clearly
h. specified.

i t 3. . Training programs for shift supervisors shall emphasize and u

' .- reinforce.the responsibility for safe operation and the management function that the shift supervisor is to provide for assuring safety.

.4. The administrative duties of the shift supervisor shall be reviewed by the senior officer of-each utility responsible y for plant operations. Administrative functions that detract 1 I from or are subordinate to the management responsibility for assuring the safe operation of the plant shall be delegated to other operations personnel not on duty in the control room.

LILCO Position In lieu of a Shift Supervisor SNPS uses a Watch Engineer. The administrative duties are minimized by the plant being shutdown and defueled with some systems being preserved / protected.

Additionally, the administrative duties have little effect on I safe operation of the plant. See the USAR for additional -

SHOREHAM DSAR s

, rQ(I I.A l.3 Shift Manning NRC Position Assure that the necessary number and availability of personnel to

-man the operations shifts have been designated by the licensee.

Administrative procedures should be written to govern the.

movement of key individuals about the plant to assure that qualified individuals are readily available in the event of an abnormal or emergency situation. This should consider the r recommendations on overtime in NUREG-0578. Provisions should be made for an aide to the shift supervisor to assure that, over the .

.long term, the shift supervisor is free of routine administrative duties.

At any time a licensed nuclear unit is being operated in Modes 1-4 for a PWR (Power Operation, Startup, Hot Standby, or Hot

= Shutdown, respectively) or in Modes 1-3 for a BWR (Power Operation, Startup, or Hot Shutdown, respectively), the minimum shift crew shall include two licensed senior reactor operatorr (SRO), one of whom shall be designated as the shift supervistr, two licensed reactor operators (RO), and two unlicensed auy111ary operators (AO). For a multi-unit station, depending upon the station configuration, shift staffing may be adjusted to allow

,s . credit for licensed senior reactor operators and licensed reactor operators to serve as relief operators on more than one unit; however, these individuals must be properly licensed on each such unit. At all other times, for a unit loaded with fuel, the minimum shift crew shall include one shift supervisor who whall ,

be a licensed senior reactor operator (SRO), one licensed reactor operator (RO), and one unlicensed auxiliary operator (AO). -

Adjunct requirements to the shift staffing criteria stated above are as follows:

a. A shift supervisor with a senior reactor operator's license, who is also a member of the station supervisory staff, shall be onsite at all times when at least one unit is loaded with fuel,
b. A licensed senior reactor operator (SRO) shall, at all times, be in the control room from which a reactor is being operated. The shift supervisor may from time-to-time act as relief operator for the licensed senior reactor operator assigned to the control room.
c. For any station with more than one reactor containing fuel, the number of licensed senior reactor operators onsite shall, at all times, be at least one more than the e g. number of control rooms from which the reactors are being Q operated.
d. In addition to the licensed senior reactor operators specified in a., b., and c. above, for each reactor

m O.. J

> 1 SHOREHAM.DSAR lC  !

' x-/  !

containing fuel, a licensed reactor operator (RO) shall be in the control room at all times.

e. In addition to the operators specified in a., b., c.,'and- [
d. above, for each control room from which a reactor is being operated, an additional licensed reactor operator- 1 (RO) shall be onsite at all times and available1to serve as relief operator for that control room. As noted above, this individual may serve as relief operator for each unit being operated from that control room, provided he holds a current license for each unit.
f. Auxiliary (non-licensed) operators shall'be properly ,

qualified to support the unit to which assigned. l

q. In additioh to the staffing requirements stated above, shift crew assignments during periods of core alterations shall include a licensed senior reactor operator-(SRO) to directly supervise the core alterations. This licensed

. senior reactor operator may have fuel handling' duties but shall not have other concurrent operational duties.

Licensees of operating plants and applicants for operating gs licensees shall include in their administrative procedures 1 (required by license conditions) provisions' governing required .

shift staffing and movement of key individuals about the plant.

These provisions.are required to assure that qualified plant i

personnel to man the operational shifts are readily available in the. event of an abnormal or emergency situation.

These administrative procedures shall also set forth a policy, the objective of which is to operate the plant with the required staff and develop working schedules such that use of overtime is avoided, to the extent practicable, for the plant staff who perform safety-related functions (e.g., senior reactor. operators, reactor operators, health physicists, auxiliary operators, I&C technicians and key maintenenance personnel) .

IE Circular No. 80-02, " Nuclear Power Plant Staff Work Hours,"

dated February 1, 1980 discusses the concern of overtime ~ work for members of the plant staff who perform safety-related functions.

The staff recognizes that there are diverse opinions on the amount of overtime that would be considered permissible and that there is a lack of hard data on the effects of overtime beyond the generally recognized normal 8-hour working day, the effects of. shift rotation, and other factors. NRC has initiated studies in this area.. Until a firmer basis is developed on working hours, the administrative procedures shall include as an interim measure the following guidance, which generally follows that of

('~dT IE Circular No. 80-02.

In the event that overtime must be used (excluding extended periods of shutdown for refueling, major maintenance or major

l However, recognizing that circumstances may arise requiring ,

L deviation from the above restrictions, such deviation may be l l authorized by the plant manager or his deputy, or higher levels  !

of management in accordance with published procedures and with appropriate documentation of the cause.

If a reactor operator or senior reactor operator has been working more than 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> during periods of extended shutdown (e.g., at duties away from the control board), such individual shall not be assigned shift duty in the control room without at least a I . '( ) -

12-hour break preceding such an assignment.

I.B l.2 Evaluation of Organization and Management NRC Position Each applicant for an operating license shall establish an onsite independent safety engineering group (ISEG) to perform l independent reviews of plant operations.

l

-( ) The principal function of the ISEG is to examine plant operating characteristics, NRC issuances, Licensing Information Service advisories, and other appropriate sources of plant design and operating experience information that may indicate areas for improving plant safety. The ISEC is to perform independent

SHOREHAM DSAR O)

\_

review and audits of plant activities including maintenance, modifications, operational problems, and operational analysis, and aid in the establishment of programmatic requirements for plant activities. Where useful improvements can be achieved, it is expected that this group will develop and present detailed recommendations to corporate mLaagement for such things as revised procedures or equipment modifications.

Another function of the ISEG is to maintain surveillance of plant operations and maintenance activities to provide independent verifications that these activities are performed correctly and that human errors are reduced as far as practicable. ISEG will #

then be in a position to advise utility management on the overall quality and safety operations. ISEG need not perform detailed audits of plant operations and shall not be responsible for sign-off functions'auch that it becomes involved in the operating organization.

l The new ISEG shall not replace the plant operations review committee (PORC) and the utility's independent review and audit group as specified by current staff guidelines (Standard Review

! Plan, Regulatory Guide 1.33, Standard Technical Specifications).

Rather, it is an additional independent group of a minimum of l

five dedicated, full-time engineers, located onsite, but reporting offsite to a corporate official who holds a high-level,

, technically oriented position that is not in the management chain for power production. The ISEG will increase the available t technical expertise located onsite and will provide continuing, systematic, and independent assessment of plant activities. ,

Integrating the Shift Technical Advisors into the ISEG in some way would be desirable in that it could enhance the group's l contact with and knowledge of day-to-day plant operations and

provide additional expertise. However, the shift technical advisor on shift is necessarily a member of the operating staff and cannot be independent of it.

l o It is expected that the ISEG may interface with the quality l

assurance (QA) organization, but preferably should not be an integral part of the QA organization.

The functions of the ISEG require daily contact with the operating personnel and continued access to plant facilities and records. The ISEG review functions can, therefore, best be carried out by a group physically located onsite. However, for utilities with multiple sites, it may be possible to perform l portions of the independent, safety assessment function in a L centralized location for all the utility's plants. In such I cases, an onsite group still is required, but it may be slightly smaller than would be the case if it were performing the entire independent safety assessment function. Such cases will be O$ reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

! AT this time, the requirements for establishing an ISEG is being applied only to applicants for operating licenses in accordance l

s SHOREHAM DSAR i

t with Action Plan item I.B.I.2. The staff intends to review this activity in about a year _to determine its effectiveness and to l see whether changes are required. Applicability to operating plants will be considered in implementing long-term improvements in organization and management for operating plants (Action Plan item I.B.1.1).

LILCO Position I

LILCO does not have an ISEG. The functions of an ISEG do not apply to shutdown and defueled reactor which will not be '

operated.

I.C.1 Guidance for the Evaluation and Development of Procedures for Transients and Accidents NRC Position In letters of September 13 and 27, October 10 and 30, and November 9, 1979, the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation ,

required licensees of operating plants, applicants for operating licenses and licensees of plants under construction to perform analyses of transients and accidents, prepare emergency procedure l guidelines, upgrade emergency procedures, including procedures  :

for operating with natural circulation conditions, and to conduct operating retraining (see also Item I.A.2.1). Emergency procedures are required to be consistent with the actions

, necessary to cope with the transients and accidents analyzed.

L Analyses of transients and accidents were to be completed in l

early 1980 and implementation of procedures and retraining were I to be completed 3 months after emergency procedure guidelines were established; however, some difficulty in completing these

. requirements has been experienced. Clarification of the scope of

( the task and appropriate schedule revisions are being developed.

In the course of review of these matters on Babcock and Wilcox (B&W)-designed plants, the staff will follow up on the bulletin and orders matters relating to analysis methods and results, as listed in NUREG-0660, Appendix C (see Table C.1, items 3, 4, 16, 18, 24, 25, 26, 27; Table C.2, items 4, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20; and Table C.3, items 6, 35, 37, 38, 39, 41, 47, 55, 57).

Based on staff reviews to date, there appear to be some recurring deficiencies in the guidelines being developed. Specifically, the staff has found a lack of justification for the approach used (i.e., symptom , event , or function-oriented) in developing diagnostic. guidance for the operator and in procedural development. It has also been found that although the guidelines <

l take implicit credit for operation of many systems or components, they do not address the avilaability of these systems under expected plant conditions nor do they address corrective or L alternative actions that should b performed to mitigate the event should these systems or components fail.

l

SHOREHAM DSAR The analysis conducted to date for guideline and procedure development contain insufficient information to assess the extent to which multiple failures are considered. NUREG-0578 concluded that the single-failure criterion was not considered appropriate for guideline development and called for the considreation of multiple failures and operator errors. Therefore, the analyses that support guideline and procedure development should consider the occurrences of multiple and consequential failures. In oeneral, the sequence of events for the transients and accidents and inadequate core cooling analyzed should postulate multiple failures such that, if the failures were unmitigated, conditions of inadequate core cooling would result.

Examples of multiple failure events include:

1. Multiple tube rupture in more than one steam generator and tube rupture in more than one steam generator;
2. Failure of main and auxiliary feedwater;
3. Failure of high-pressure reactor coolant makeup system;
4. An anticipated transient without scram (ATWS) event following a loss of offsite power, stuck-open relief valve or safety relief valve, or loss of main feedwater;
5. Operator errors of omission or commission.

The analyses should be carried out far enough into the event to assure that all relevant thermal / hydraulic /neutronic phenomena are identified (e.g., upper head voiding due to rapid cooldown, steam generator stratification). Failures and operator errors during the long term cooldown period should.also be addressed.

The analyses should support development of guidelines that define a logical transition from the emergency procedures into the inadequate core cooling procedure including the use of instrumentation to identify inadequate core cooling conditions.

Rationale for this transition should be discussed. Additional information that should be submitted includes:

1. A detailed description of the methodology used to develop the guidelines;
2. Associated control function diagrams, sequence-of-event diagrams, or others, if used;
3. The bases for multiple and consequential failure considerations; O 4. Supporting analysis, including a description of any computer codes used;

__ _ _ _ . - _ _ _ _ .. ~ __ ._ _ _ _ . _ . . - _

- o 1 SHOREHAM DSAR f

5. A description of the applicability of any generic results to plant-speci fic applications.

Owners' group or vendor submittals may be referenced as appropriate to support this reanalysis. If owners' group or vendor submittals have already been forwarded to the staff for review, a brief description of the submittals and justification of their adequacy to support guideline development is all that is required.

Pending staff approval of the revised analyais and guidelines, the staff will continue the pilot monitoring of emergency procedures described in task action plan Item I.C.8 (NUREG-0660) .

For PWRs, this will involve review of the luss-of-coolant, steam-generator-tube rupture, loss of main feedwater, and inadequate core cooling procedures. The adequacy of each PWR vendor's guidelines will be identified to each NTOL during the l emergency procedure review. Since the analysis and guidelines  ;

submitted by the General Electric Company (GE) owners' group that I comply with the requirements stated above have been reviewed and I approved for trail implementation of six plants with applications for operating licenses pending, the interim program for BWRs will consist of trial implementation on these six plants.

.( ) Following approval of analysis and guidelines and the pilot monitoring of emergency procedures, the staff will advise all

)

i ilicensees of the adequacy of the guidelines for application to )

their plants. Consideration will be given to human factors I engineering and system operational characteristics, such as  ;

information transfer under stress, compatibility with operator j training and control room design, the time required for component 1 and system response, clarity of procedural actions, and control l room personnel interactions. When this determination has been made by the staff, a long-term plan for emergency procedure review, as described in task action plan Item I.C.8, will be made available. At that time, the reviews currently being conducted on NTOLs under Item I.C.8 will be discontinued, and the review

~

required or applicants for operating licenses will be as i described in the long-term plan. Depending on the information I submitted to support development of emergency procedures for each l I

reactor type or vendor, this transition may take place at different times. For example, if the GE guidelines are shown to I be effective on the six plants chosen for pilot monitoring, the long-term plan for EWRs may be complete in early 1981. Operating plants and applicants will then have the option of implementing the long-term plan in a manner consistent with their operating i schedule, provided they meet the final date required for j implementation. This may require a plant that was reviewed for

an operating license under Item I.C.9 to revise its emergency l

i

() procedures again prior to the final implementation date for Item I.C.8. The extent to which the long-term program will include i

! review and approval of plant-specific procedures for operating l plants has not been established. Our objective, however, is to j

! l l

l

s .

SHOREHAM DSAR minimize the amount of plant-specific procedure review and  ;

approval required. The staff believes this objective can be i acceptably accomplished by concentrating the staff review and I approval on generic guidelines. A key element in meeting this  :

objective is use of staff-approved generic guidelines and i guideline revisions by licensees to develop procedures. For this approach to be effective, it is imperative that, once the staff has issued approval of a guideline, subsequent revisions of the guideline should not be implemented by licensees until reviewed -

and approved by the staff. Any changes in plant-specific procedures based on unapproved guidelines could constitute an ,

unreviewed safety issue under 10CFR50.59. Deviations from this -

approach on a plant-specific basis would be acceptable provided the basis is submitted by the licensee for staff review and approval. In this case, deviations from generic guidelines should not be implemented until staff approval is formally ,

received in writing. Interim implementation of analysis and  :

procedures for small-break loss-of-coolant accident and inadquate core cooling should remain on the schedule contained in NUREG-0578, Recommendation 2.1.9.

I.C.5 Procedures for Feedback of ,2perating Experience to Plant Staff NRC Position l

In accordance with Task Action Plan I.C.5, Procedures for Feedback of Operating Experience to Plant Staff (NUREG-0660),

L each applicant for an operating license shall prepare procedures to assure that operating information pertinent to plant safety originating both within and outsida the utility organization is continually supplied to operators und other personnel and is incorporated into training and retraining programs. These procedures shall:

(1) Clearly identify organizational responsibilities for review of operating experience, the feedback of pertinent information to operators and other personnel, and the incorporation of such information into training and retraining-programs;

SHOREHAM DSAR (2) Identify the administrative and technical review steps necessary in translating recommendations by the operating experience assessment group into plant actions (e.g.,

changes to procedures, operating orders);

(3) Identify the recipients of various categories of information  ;

from operating experience (i.e., supervisory personnel,  !

shift technical advisors, operators, maintenance personnel, )

health physics technicians) or otherwise provide means through which such information can be readily related to the job function of the recipients; (4) Provide means to assure that affected personnel become aware i of and understand information of sufficient importance that i should not wait for emphasis through routine training and j retraining programs; (5) Assure that plant personnel do not routinely receive extraneous and unimportant information on operating experience in such volume that it would obscure priority information or otherwise detract from overall job performance and proficiency; (6) Provide suitable checks to assure that conflicting or contradictory information is not conveyed to operators and

(~) other personnel until resolution is reached; and, (7) Provide periodic internal audit to assure that the feedback program functions effectively at all levels.

Each utility shall carry out an operating experience assessment function that will involve utility personnel having collective 1 competence in all areas important to plant safety. In connection with this assessment function, it is important that procedures exist to assure that important information on operating experience originating both within and outside the organization is continually provided to operators and-other personnel, and that it is incorporated into plant operating procedures and training and retraining programs.

Those involved in the assessment of operating experience will review information from a variety of sources. These include operating information from the licensee's own plant (s),

publications such as IE Bulletins, Circulars, and Notices, and pertinent NRC or industrial assessments of operating experience.

In some cases, information may be of sufficient importance that it must be dealt with promptly (through instructions, changes to operating and emergency procedures, issuance of special changes to operating and emergency procedues, issuance of special

., precautions, etc.) and must be handled in such a manner to assure that operations management personnel would be directly involved in tne process. In many other cases, however, important information will become available which would be brought to the attention of operators and other personnel for their generel

information to assure continued safe plant operations. Since the total volume of information handled by the assessment group may.

be large, it is important that assurance bs provided that high-priority matters are dealt with promptly and that discrimination is used in the feedback of other information so that personnel are not deluged with unimportant and extraneous information to the detriment of their overall proficiency. It is important, also, that technical review be conducted to preclude

-premature dissemination of conflicting or contradictory

'information.

I.C.6 Procedures for Verification of Correct Performance of Operating Activities NRC Position It is' required from NUREG-0660 that licensees' procedures be reviewed and revised, as necessary, to assure that an effective system of verifying the correct performance of operating ~

activities is provided as a means of reducing humsn errors and '

improving the quality of normal operations. This will reduce the frequency of occurrence of situations that could result in or contribute to accidents. Such a verifioncion system may include I automatic system status monitoring, human verification or I

operations, and maintenance activities independent of the people l

performing the activity (see NUREG-0585, Recommendation 5) or i both.

Implementation of automatic status monitoring if required will reduce the extent of human verification of operations and i

J maintenance activities but will not eliminate the need for such verification in all instances. The procedures adopted by the l

The American Nuclear Society has prepared a draft revision to ANS Standard N 18.7-1972(ANS). Administrative Controls and Quality Assurance for the Operational Phase or Nuclear Power Plants. A second proposed revision to Regulatory Guide 1.33, Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation), which is to be issued for public comment in the near future, will endorse the latest draft revision to ANS 3.2 subject to the following supplemental

-provisions:

j, (1) Applicability of the guidance of Section 5.2.6 should be i

extended to cover surveillance testing in addition to maintenance.

l (2) In lieu of any designated senior reactor operator (SRO), the authority to release systems and equipment for maintenance or surveillance testing or return-to-service may be delegated to an on-shift SRO, provided provisions are made f') to ensure that the shift supervisor is kept fully informed k/ of system status.

l (3) Except in cases of significant radiation exposure, a second qualified person should verify correct implementation or equipment control measures such as tagging of equipment.

I (4) Equipment control procedures should include assurance that control-room operators are informed of changes in equipment status and the effects of such changes.

L (5) For the return-to-service of equipment important to safety, i

, a second qualified operator should verify proper systems l alignment unless functional testing can be performed without I l

compromising plant safety, and can prove that all equipment, valves, and switches Anvolved in the activity are correctly aligned.

NOTE: A licensed operator possessing knowledge of the systems i involved and the reistionship of the systems to plant ,

safety would be a qpelified person. The staff is inveetigating the level of qualification necessary for other operators to perform these functions.

l For plants that have or will have automatic system status

NRR is presently developing human engineering guidelines to assist each licensee and applicant in performing detailed l control-room review. A draft of the guidelines has been published for public comment as NUREG/CR-1580, " Human Engineering Guide to Control Room Evaluation." The due date for comments on this draft document was September 29, 1980. NRR will issue the

Prior to the onsite review / audit, NRR will require a copy of the applicant's preliminary assessment and additional information which will be used in formulating the details of the onsite review / audit.

LILCO Position LILCO has performed ~the required preliminary design assessment of the Shoreham control room and remote shutdown panel. The intent of the review is to identify significant human factors and instrument problems and to establish a schedule for correcting any deficiencies.

%- LILCO retained the General Physics Corporation, as a human factors consultant, to perform the preliminary assessment.

General Physics has been involved in similar audits at the following near-term oparating license BWE's: LaSalle, Susquehanna, and Zimmer.

II.B.2 Plan _t Shielding to Provide Access to Vital Areas and l Protect Safety Equipment for Post-Accident Operation  ;

NRC Position ,

The NRC position on the above is as given in the Shoreham USAR.

LILCO Position In a fashion similar to the Shoreham USAR, LILCO has determined that the-only areas after an accident where access may be needed are the Radwaste and Main Control Rooms and the Technical Support >

Center (TSC) full-time, and the Reactor Building refueling deck part-time. The basis of this is that, as seen in Chapters 11 and 15 of the DSAR, the only design basis events which remain credible are the Fuel Handling Accident (FHA) as described in Regulatory Guide 1.25, and the Liquid Radwaste Tank Rupture Accident. As discussed in Chapters 15 and 11, respectively, +

t

(~T neither of these involve the release of large quantities of .

\~/ radioactivity, and thus there is no need for the Post Accident L Sampling and Analysis Facility (PASF). The other areas suggested '

l as vital post accident in NUREG-0737 do not apply for shoreham or are not needed, for the reasons given in Section II.B.2 of the USAR. Furthermore, systems such as the hydrogen recombiner are clearly no longer required in the defueled condition, as documented in Chapter 6 of the DSAR. ,

Source Term and Results The radioactive source terms (quantities and source distributions) for the design basis accidents are described in Section 11.2 for the Liquid Radwaste Tank Rupture Accident, and in Chapter 15.1.36 for the FHA (and Worst Case Fuel Damage Accident).

Because the cubicles where a Liquid Radwaste Tank Rupture '

Accident could occur are exhausted to a process air header, which is then processed through a filter train before release through ,

the station vent, the postulated accident would have no affect on general Radwaste Building habitability. Specifically, the Radwaste Control Room would be unaffected, since it is well isolated from the cubicles where the accident could occur. For details, see Section 9.4.3 of the USAR.

l (~h For the FHA and Worst Case Fuel Damage Accidents, the

(_J-'

habitability criteria for full occupancy of the Main Control Room and Technical Support Center are clearly not challenged. The 30-day integrated doses are:

(_ i Harsh Environment Due to the lack of safety-related equipment in the Radwaste Building, there are no harsh environment concerns there. Neither the Fuel Handling nor the Worst Case Fuel Damage Accident involve the release of any meaningful quantity of heat energy or chemically hazardous material. Furthermore, the gamma and beta doses given above are insignificant insofar as environmental qualification is concerned. As such, the credible accidents considered do not result in harsh environment in the Reactor Building or elsewhere. .

III. EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS (Refer to LILCO Defueled Emergency Plan)

III.A.l.1 Upgrade Emergency Preparedness NRC Position The overall state of emergency prepardness for nuclear power plant accidents will be upgraded, including the integration of emergency preparedness onsite and offsite, according to the NRC/ FEMA Memorandum of Understanding (item III.B). Approval of the overall state of preparedness will be required prior to issuance of an operating license. The review and upgrading for

(} operating reactors is under way.

Six NRC teams were formed in September 1979 to implement the

" Action Plan for Promptly Improving Emergency Preparedness" (SECY 79-450). That Action Plan identifies the elements required f~e 1

I . - . - - _ _ . _ ._- -. . .

)

r- SHORERAM DSAR  ;

promptly improving licensee emergency preparedness and for ensuring the capability of offsite agencies to take appropriate emergency actions. In the short term, the teams are making an integrated assessment of licensee, local, and State capabilities and interfaces based on (a) a review of existing plans and a meeting in the site area to communicate upgraded criteria and to identify to licensees the areas requiring improvements. This includes an opportunity for expression of concerns by the public through an open meeting. An objective of the teams is to help improve working relationships and communications concerning emergency plan development among all parties. The criteria being used by the NRC teams reflect a number of the recommendations made as a result of the TMI-2 accident by the President's Commission and the NRC Special Inquiry Group; and (b) a review of upgraded licensee,. local, and State plans submitted by the j licensee after the site visit is summarized in a safety l evaluation report. This includes an identification of areas

requiring improvement, a schedule for implementation of the improvements, and a specification of any required interim measures. The review of upgraded plans encompasses the points in i

SECY-79-450 and reflects any input from the Federal Regional Advisory Committees (RAC). Items on local or State plans requiring improvement to meet the upgraded criteria of NUREG-0654 l

(

but which are adequate to meet the essential planning elements of "NRC Guide and Checklist," NUREG-75/111, and Supplement 1 i thereto, are not being required for issuance of licenses for low-power testing.

The above actions are in progress and will be completed in FY 1980. In the longer term, beginning in FY 1981, an integrated assessment of the implementation of the plans will be performed.

This assessment will take into account comments and reviews by the RAC as a result of State plan concurrence efforts, including critiques of emergency exercises. The results of the Office of Inspection and Enforcement (IE) special team efforts to evaluate Licensee health physics programs during 1980-81 will be factored into the review. This longer term review of emergency preparedness will consist of three parts: (a) a review of implementing procedures, including inplant and offsite personnel and equipment. The review of these procedures will be done by the team. Subsequently, periodic reviews and inspections will be performed by IE; (b) observing and critiquing exercises involving licensee, local, and State capabilities; and (c) observing and critiquing exercises involving licensee, local, State and Federal capabilities. For new operating license applicants, this must be completed before full-power licensing and within about five years for operating reactors.

NRR has sent letters to operating reactors, operating license O applicants, and holders of construction permits requesting information regarding time estimates for evacuation of areas around plants to determine the difficulty of implementing protective measures for the public.

  • NRC Position Each operating nuclear power plant shall maintain an onsite '

Technical Support Genter (TSC) separate from and in close proximity to the control room that has the capability to display and transmit plant status to those individuals who are knowledgeable of and responsible for engineering and management support.of reactor operations in the event of an accident. The center shall be habitable to the same degree as the control room for postulated accident conditions. The licensee shall revise his emergency plans as necessary to incorporate the role and locations of the TSC. Records that pertain to the asbuilt

-\ shall be readily available to personnel in the TSC.

An Operational Support Center (OSC) shall be established separate from the control room and other emergency response facilities as

^

a place where operations support personnel can assemble and report in an emergency situation to receive instructions from the operating staff. Communications shall be provided between the OSC, TSC, EOF, and control room.

An Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) (Near-Site) will be operated by the licensee for continued evaluation and coordination of all licensee activities related to an emergency having or potentially having environmental consequences. The EOF shall be located within 20 miles of the TSC to permit periodic face-to-face communication between manage. t personnel in the TSC and the EOF. The EOF structure shall e well engineered for the design life of the plant. If the EOF is located within 20 miles of the TSC it shall have an isolatable ventilation system with HEPA filters and a backup EOF shall be located within from 10 to 20 miles of the TSC. If the EOF is located between 10 and 20 miles of the TSC, no isolatable ventilation system or backup EOF is required. The facility will have sufficient space to accomodate representatives from Federal, State and local governments as appropriate. In addition, the major State and local response agencies may provide for data analysis jointly with the operator at this location. The EOF will provid6 Oe- information needed by Federal, State, and local authorities for implementation of offsite emergency plans in addition to a centralized meeting location for key representatives from the agencies. Recovery operations shall be managed from this facility. Press facilities also may be available at the EOF.

LILCO Position l I

The " Permanent Emergency Response Facilities Design Criteria and Description" applicable to this DSAR can be found in the Defueled f Emergency Preparedness Plan which is being submitted separately 1 1

.via SNRC-1651.

The facilities changes principally involve: 1

1. The elimination of the EOF.
2. Moving the ENC to the Corporate Information Department in Hicksville.
3. The following information regarding TSC habitability:

As presently designed, the SNPS TSC meets the habitability -

criteria of'GDC 19, for all credible design basis accidents (DBAs) envisioned with the fuel in the pool. The DBA on which this conclusion is based is the fuel handling accident (FHA) , as described in detail in DSAR Section 15.1.36. Because the ,

accident releases are so low, it is'(conservatively) assumed that i the TSC's HVAC system is not isolated (i.e., 7000 cfm of unfiltered intake and exhaust continues throughout the accident).

l A conservative, ground-level X/Q to the TSC intake is' assumed, l () 7.86E-04 seconds per cubic meter.

Whole body gamma and beta doses are due to Kr-85. The gamma doses are computed based on a finite cloud model in the TSC, plus <

a semi-infinite cloud surrounding the building, which has 18 ,

inches of concrete shielding all around. The beta doses are based on the semi-infinite cloud model suggested by the NRC, Reg.

Guide 1.3. The only radiciodine determined to be in SNPS' core is I-129, with an inventory of approximately 4 millicuries.

Thyroid doses are computed using a conversion factor for I-129 derived in a. fashion consistent with Reg. Guide 1.109 rev. 1, and a breathing rate of 3.47E-04 cubic meters per second (1.25 cubic meters per hour).

l The resulting doses, and the associated GDC 19 Criteria, are as follows:

Specific criteria to meet this requirement are delineated in NUREG-0654 (FEMA-REP-1). " Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and ,

Preparation in Support of Nuclear Power Plants".  !

In accordance with Task Action Plan item III.A.1.1, " Upgrade Emergency Preparedness," each nuclear power facility was required to immediately upgrade its amargency plans with criteria provided October 10, 1979, as revised by NUREG-0654 (FEMA-REP-1, issued .

for interim use and comment, January 1980) . New plans were l submitted by January 1, 1980, using the October 10, 1979 ,

criteria. Reviews were started on the upgraded plans using NUREG-0654. Concomitant to these actions, amendments, were developed to 10CFR part 50 and Appendix E to 10CFR Part 50, to I provide the long-term implementation requirements. These new rules were issued in the Federal Register on August 19, 1980, with an ef fective date of November 3,1980. The revised rules -

delineate requirements for emergency preparedness at nuclear reactor facilities.

NUREG-0654 (FEMA-REP-1), " Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation ,

of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants," provides detailed items to be included in the upgraded emergency plans and, along with the revised rules, provides the meteorological criteria, means for providing for a prompt notification to the population, and the need for emergency response facilities (see Item III.A.1.2).

Implementation of the new rules levied the requirement for the ,

l licensee to provide procedures implementing the upgraded l emergency plans to the NRC for review. Publication of Revision 1 to NUREG-0654 (FEMA-REP-1) , which incorporaten the many public comments received is expected in October 1980. This is the l

document that will be used by NRC and FEMA in their evaluation of emergency plans submitted in accordance with the new NRC rules.

NUREG-0654, Revision 1; NUREG-0696, " Functional Criteria for Emergency Response Facilities;" and the amendments to 10CFR Part 50 and Appendix E to 10CFR Part 50 regarding emergency preparedness, provide more detailed criteria for emergency plans, design, and functional criteria for emergency response facilities and establish firm dates for submission of upgraded emergency plans.for installation of prompt notification systems. These revised criteria and rules supersede previous Commission guidance for the upgrading of emergency preparedness at nuclear power facilities.

g Applicants shall provide a summary description, together with initial leak-test results, of their program to reduce leuage from systems outside containment that would or could contain primary coolant or other highly radioactive fluids or gases during or following a serious transient or accident.

Systems that should be leak tested ere as follows (any other plens system which hac similar functions or postaccident characteristics even though not specified herein, should be included):

Residual heat removal (RHR)

Containment spray recirculation High-pressure injection recirculation Containment and primary coolant sampling Reactor core isolation cooling Makeup and 1-etdown (PWR'u only)

Waste gas (includes headers and cover gas system outside of S containment in addition to decay or storage system)

SHOREHAM DSAR

Testing of: gaseous: systems should include-helium leak detection or equivalent testing methods.

'Should consider program to reduce leakage potential release paths due to design and operator deficiencies as discussed in our letter.to all operating nuclear power plants regarding North Anna and related incidents, dated October 17, 1979.

LILCO Position M

The purpose of this program is to minimize leakage of primary coolant sources outside of the primary containment. Since in the FIPS condition there is no " primary coolant" per se, the leakage

. prevention program becomes irrelevant and unnecessary.

III.D.3.3 In-plant Radiation Monitoring

.NRC Position Each licensee shall provide equipment and associated training and procedures for accurately determining the airborne iodine concentration in areas within the facility where plant personnel

.may be present during an accident.

Effective monitoring or increasing-iodine levels in the buildings

-under accident conditions must include the use of portable instruments using sample media that will collect iodine

, selectively over xenon (e.g., silver zeolite) for the following reasons:

a. The physical size of the auxiliary and/or fuel handling building precludes locating stationery monitoring instrumentation at all areas where airborne iodine concentration data might be required. ..
b. Unanticipated isolated " hot spots" may occur in locations where no stationary monitoring instrumentation is located.
c. Unexpectedly high background radiation levels near stationary monitoring instrumentation after an accident  :

may interfere with filter radiation readings.

~

d. The time req? tired to retrieve samples after an accident may result in high personnel exposures if these filters are-located in high-dose-rate areas.

After January 1, 1981, each applicant and licensee shall have the capability to remove the sampling cartridge to a low-background, e

low-contamination area for further analysis. Normally, counting rooms in auziliary buildings will not have sufficiently low backgrounds for such analyses following an accident. In the low j background area, the sample should first be purged of any '

entrapped noble gases using nitrogen gas or clean air free of

3 .)

p SHOREHAM-D$AR-l noble 1 gases. The licensee shall have the capability to measure accurately the iodine concentrations present on these' samples under accident conditions. There should be sufficient samplers to' sample all~ vital areas.

LILCO Position.

Revise to state "The source term calculations for spent fuel (discussed'in DSAR Section 12.2.1) indicate only a very small

! amount of-iodine is present in the fuel, about 4.0 millicuries of I-129:(total' core). There is no measurable quantity of radiciodine elsewhere in the Reactor, Radwaste, or Turbine . .I Buildings. As such, inplant measurement of radioiodine during and after an accident is unnecessary, and-no provisions are made to perform such analyses."

III.D.3.4 Control Room Habitability NRC Position In accordance with the Task Action Plan item III.D.3.4~and' l control-room habitability, licensees shall assure that control l room operators will be adequately protected against the effects- l of accidental-release of toxic and radioactive gases and that the nuclear power plant can be safely operated or shut down under .

design basis accident conditions (Criterion 19,-" Control Room,"

.of Appendix A, " General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants", to 10 CFR Part 50).

All licensees must make submittal to the NRC regardless of whether or not they meet the criteria of the referenced Standard Review Plans (SRP) sections. The new clarification specifies that licensees that meet the criteria of the SRP's should provide the basis for-their conclusion that SRP 6.4 requirements are met.

Licensees may establish this basis by referencing past submittale to the NRC and/or oroviding new or additional information to supplement past schmittals.

All licensees with control rooms that meet the criteria of the following sections of the-Standard Review Plan 2.2.1.2.2.2 Identification of Potential Hazards in Site Vicinity, 2.2.3 j f

Each-licensee submittal shall include the results of the analyses of control room concentrations from postulated accidental release of toxic gases and' control room operator radiation exposures from airborne radioactive ,aterial and direct radiation resulting from c design-basis accidents. The toxic gas accident analysis should E 'be performed for all potential hazardous chemical releases occurring either on the site or within 5 miles of the plant-site boundary. Regulatory Guide 1.78 lists the chemicals ,ost commonly encountered in the evaluation of control room habitability but is not all inclusive.

The. design-basis-accident-(DBA) radiation source term should be for the loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) containment leakage and engineered safety feature (ESP) leakage contribution outside containment as described in Appendix A and B of Standard Review Plan Chapter 15.6.5. In addition, boiling-water reactor (BWR) facility evaluations should add any leakage from the main steam isolation valves (MSIV) (i.e., valve-stem leakage, valve seat

-leakage, main steam isolation valve leakage control system release) to the containment leakage and ESF leakage followimg a LOCA. This should not be construed as altering the staff recommendations in Section D of Regulatory Guide 1.96 (Rev. 2) regarding MSIV leakage-control systems. Other DBAS should be reviewed to' determine whether they might constitute a more-severe control-room hazard than the LOCA.

In addition to the accident-analysis results, wjich should either identify the possible-need for control -room modifications or provide assurance that habitability systems will operate under all postulated conditions to permit the control-room operators to remain-in the control room to take appropriate actions required

/'N by General Design Criterion 19, the licensee should submit

L h LILCO Position Habitability Systems Final Decision Design' Bases The' original plant design bases of the control room's habitability systems, as described in-USAR Section.III.D.3.4, still apply in general. However, due to the small quantity of e

L radioactivity released during the design basis accident (the fuel L handling accident), the control room's remote intakes and standby L charcoal filtration system are no longer required to. meet General Design Criteria 19. Doses, assuming the control room's HVAC system continues to function as during normal operation, are indicated in Chapter 15 of the DSAR.

System Design

.The design of the control room HVAC system is as described in DSAR Section 9.4.1. As stated above, the remote intakes and the standby filtration system are no longer required. Inlet duct instrumentation is no longer required as well. As such, discussion of these items in USAR Section III.D.3.4 no longer applies. .During the design basis accident, the control room HVAC system will continue to function as during normal plant

1 operations.

A.J Design Evaluation This section is as described in USAR Section III.D.3.4, except that the remote intakes and standby filtration systema are no

SHOREHAM DSAR-longer required. Also, as per DSAR-Section 9.2.9, only one chilled water system is' requi' red with the spent fuel in the pool.

. Tests and Inspections Tests land. inspections of the control room HVAC system are as described in.USAR Section III.D.3.4, except that the standby filtration systems are no longer required.

Standby Charcoal Filtration Trains This equipment is no longer required.
