Item No. 36 - Containment Purge System 4

.The drywell'and suppression chamber vent purge valves are six inches in size and 150 pound class. The governing code for design is ASME Section III Code Class 2. The. valves have a design pressure of 48 psig and temperature of 90 F. The ambient temperature specified for the valves' environment is_ The 40 ~120 F.~ The valve body form is globe type with quick opening trim.

valve actuator is~a spring and diaphragm with a 2-inch stroke. Air to ..

the actuator.is 125~psig. Valve actuator operates on 80 psig. In additiofi-to' ASME Section III~ Class 2 design, the. valves have also been seismically qualified (including Mark II. loads) by calculation. Additional seismic

- -evaluation was performed which required analysis to assure the function and

. structural integrity. The valves have been analyzed for stress and deflection

~

due to combined seismic loads (simultaneously vertical and horizontal),

-pressure, and maximum operator load, and found that valve function is unimpaired. In addition, the associated solenoid valves are environmentally qualified in' accordance with the requirements of NUREG-0588.

LThese valves were also stroke tested immediately following testing for

' leakage, (hydrostatic test). ~The bench test was performed in a test fixture whir.h did not account for an actual system dcwnstream piping configuration inor could a. constant differential pressure be maintained across the valve during stroke. test.

Level Measurement Errors-LEVEL MEASUREMENT ERRORS

'(due to environmental- temperature effects on level instrument reference._ ,

legs)-

Reactor vessel' water level is' measured by means of.a produced differentiEi pressure between a-reference leg and a variable leg. The reference leg jis connected to the upper part of the vessel (steam zone) and provides the constant head using an overflow type condensing chamber. The variable

. leg is connected to th+ lower part of the vessel. The produced differential

. pressure'is therefore a function of water level.

General Electric has conducted a reviaw of the effects o_f high drywell

'temperatu ~n reactor vessel water level instrumentation. Although

. instrumei , curacy is affected by varying drywell temperature and boil-off in the reference leg, there would be no impact on the scram or other

' level trip functions, nor would post-accident operator action be impaired.

The worst case scenario evaluated was-as follcws:

o Small_ break LOCA occurs in drywell o Scram and ' auto ECCS (ADS and LPCI/CS) are actuated o Some time after LPCI/ Core Spray have reesta' t'. ished normal RPV water level, operator diverts or shuts off LPCI/ Core

Spray from RPV o 10-12 hours after the initiating event, PRV water level error

.is -at its maximum Upon receipt of low level. alarm (Level 2), operator must

~

o.

re-initiate LPCI/ Core Spray injection.

lWere this unlikely series of events to occur it would be necessary for

the operator to restart or .cdirect low pressure ECCS to the PRV in order to avoid core uncos.ery. Shoreham specific analysis verified that

-the operator would have from 10-15 minutes to redirect low pressure ECCS for the worst case scenario presented above, even with a nonconservative

' water level . indication associated with long term boiloff. Operating procedures and training will specifically address the need to be aware of this phenomenon in this small break long term LOCA. Emergency procedure 29.023.09, Reactor Pressure Vessel Flooding, was submitted in SNRC-599 dated July-20,1981, specifically assuring a conservative response to

this phenomenon.

(1) Provide sufficient operator training, handling system design, load handling i instructions, and equipment inspection to assure reliable operation of

-the handling system; and (2) Define safe load travel paths through procedures and operator training so

,. that to. the extent practical heavy loads avoid being carried over or near irradiated fuel or safe shutdown equipment; and

. .q-- .

.(3) Provide mechanical stops or electrical interlocks to prevent movement of

- heavy loads over irradiated fuel or in proximity to equipment associ.ated

with redundant shutdown paths. '

Certain alternative measures may be taken to. compensate for deficiencies in

~(2) and (3)- above, such as the inability to prevent a particular beavy load lfrom being brought over spent fuel (e.g., reactor vessel head). These alterna-tive measures can include: increasing crane reliability by providing dual

' load paths for certain components, increased safety factors, and -increased inspection as discussed in Section .1.6 of this report; restricting crane operations in the spent fuel ~ pool area (PWRs) until fuel has decayed so that off-site releases would be sufficiently low if fuel were damaged; or analyzing the effects of postulated load drops to show that consequences are within acceptable limits. Even if one of these alternative measures is selected, (1) and (2) above should still be satisfied to provide maximum practical defense-in-depth.

The following sections provide guidelines on how the above defense-in-depth approach may be satisfied for various plant areas. Fault trees and associated probabilities were developed and used as described in Bases for Guidelines, Section 5.2 of this report, to evaluate the adequacy of these guidelines and

-to assure a consistent level of protection for the various areas.

5.1.1. General All. plants have overhead handling systems that are used to handle' heavy loads in the area of the' reactor vessel or spent fuel in the spent fuel pool.

Additionally, loads may be handled in other areas where their accidental drop may damage safe shutdown systems. Accordingly, all plants should satisfy each of the following for handling heavy loads that could be brought in proximity

'to or over safe shutdown equipment or irradiated fuel in the spent fuel pool area and in containment (PWRs), in the reactor building (BWRs), and in other

plant areas.

(1) Safe load paths should be defined for the movement of heavy loads to 3': minimize the potential for heavy leads, if dropped, to impact irradiated fuel. in the reactor vessel and in the spent fuel pool, or to impact safe shutdown equipment. The path should follow, to the extent practical, j if structural floor members, beams, etc. , such that if the load is dropped, These load paths

.gf . r the structure is more likely to withstand the impact.

b should. be defined in procedures, shown on equipment layout drawings, and clearly marked on the floor in the area where the load is to be handled.

Deviations from defined load paths should require written alternative procedures approved by the plant safety review committee.

i w EResponseLto' Item 1:' ,

ThisYinformation was.provided.'in our prev'ious respon d to this item andi in 1 response to FSAR . Question 212.97.

-2. The-criteria for the allowable leakage limits should. be provided'along

with the'. bases for the ciiteria. The leakage' limit should include some

~

r _

. 1 margin to account for a-possible increase in leakage resulting from the effects 'of a' harsh environment or a seismic event, unless it can be r demonstrated .that the leak rate.will not increase following an accident.

yThe bases. for the allowable _ leakage criteria- should include a discussion

.' Eof the' basis upon which the margin will' be selected or justification for 6, .

- not applying'a margin to the allowable leakage limit.

? f 3._1The applicant should commit -to periodic leak thsting of the ADS accumolator

system to assure emergency supply for the~ required number and duration of Lvalve:actuations, as defined in Item 1 above.

x 4 E4. .The applican'. shall- propose technical specifications that specify leak

{ test frequency, allowable leak rate, and the actions to be taken if the leakage limi.t is = exceeded.

^

Response to Items 2, 3, and 4 :

~

'In crder_ to verify the' leak-tight integrity of the ADS short term accumulator -

system, the applicant will leak test each redundant train at the same frequency

as the plant integrated-leak rate test program. This test should be performed

. ~ such that the static head on the SRV's is not sufficient to unseat them. For

' train A, this test will. be accomplished by closing valves 1PS0*MOV-103A and its adjacent outboard manualiglobe vilve, and IP50*M0V-105A and venting tin

< system piping ~ between 1P50*M0V-103A and its associated outboard globe valve.

-With the minimum normal ~ system pressure at 90 p.sig, the short term accumulator m header, thereby isolated, will- be required to maintain a pressure greater than or equal to 70 psig, as measured on header pressure indicator IP50-PI-116A.

wf .Thisitest will be. performed as a function of time adequate to satisfy the short Eterm ADS requirements. The train B header will be similarly tested.

TM, '

w '~

f* < * " .

.70ipsig cannot be maintained, each ADS short term accumulator shall have its pressure checked locally to verify it is greater than or equal to 70 psig via a' test gauge. Any short term accumulator system unable to maintain 70 psig.will .be repaired / modified, and retested to verify leak-tight integrity.

~ .

5. ~Since th'e ADS accumulator' system is important to safety, it must meet the.e requirements-.of the GDC 2 and 4. _ The ADS accumulator system, and associat'ed
control c"cuitry, from the ADS valve operator out to and including the accumub.cor system isolation check valve should be seismically and environ-i ' mentally qualified. . Acceptable methods for demonstrating this qualification are. given in SRP Sections 3.9.2, 3.10, L and 3.11, as supplemented by the

. Category I requirements of NUREG-0588.

Response to Item 5:

The selimic and environmental qualification criteria for Shocham are described in FSAR Sections 3.10 and 3.11. In addition, comprehensive description and sta+.us reports for both the seismic and environmental qualification program have been submitted by SNRC-575 dated May 28, 1981, and SNRC-576 dated May 27, 1981 respectively. -As described therein, Class IE electrical equipment is qualified jin accordance with NUREG-0588-Category 2.

The ADS accumulator system is qualified in accordance with the program outlined above and, therefore, meets the requirements of GDC 2 and 4.

6. The applicant will perform a leak test prior to initial operation. The applicant should address the action to be taken if the leakage rate during the pre-operational testing exceeds that established in Item 2 above.

Response to Item 6:

The applicant will perform a leak test prior to initial operation. Should the leakage rate exceed that established in Item 2, the system will be

. repaired / modified as required.

1 NUREG-0737 Item III.D.1.1 - Primary Coolant Sources Outside the Containment Structure A leakage reduction and control program will be developed to monitor leakage from systems outside containment that could contain radioactive fluids "

during a serious transient or accident. The systems to be included in the immediate and continuing leakage reduction programs are: C -

Core Spray HPCI RHR RCIC Hydrogen Recombiners - Primary Containment Atmospheric Control Reactor Water Clean-Up (RWCU)

Coolant Sampling and Post Accident Sampling Reactor Building Equipment Drains (RBED)

Reactor Building Floor Drains Instrumentation Lines Reactor Building Standby Ventilation System (RBSVS)

Post-accident Monitoring System (PAMS)

The leakage, reduction and control program will consist of regular periodi'c

~

visu%1: inspections together with detailed visual inspections and quantitative

~

leakage measurem'ents'." Detailed system reviews will be conducted on a once per refuel cycle basis as outlined in Table III.D.1.1-1.

Detailed system walkdowns will be conducted of liquid systems and quantitative leakage measurements will be performed on a once per refueling outage cycle. General visual inspections for leakage or' signs of leakage will be conducted on a more frequent basis by operations personnel on accessible portions of the systems. These insp'e ctions will be conducted with the systems

~

pressurized to normal ~or test modes. Any excessive leakage will be recorded and appropriate maintenance work requests generated.

Systems contain'ing gases are to be tested by use of tracer gases (helium, freon, or DOP), by pressure decay testirig or metered makeup tests.

All maintenance work requesa written to correct or investigate leakage on systems included in the 6t agram will be marked as " LEAKAGE RELATED".

This will alert maintenanc. ersonnel to assign high priority to this work and will flag these requests for analysis and record keeping.

The Technical Support Group will administer the leakage reouction and control program. Responsibilities will include the following:

a. Coordinate the once per refueling outage detailed inspections and quantitative leakage measurements, and maintain records generated from the inspection.

L

~

E

'em ,

b. Review all leakage related maintenance work requests and maintain a record of status for equipment exhibiting leakage.

This-review will also consider initiating modificatim a to reduce system leakage.

c. -Maintain records and provide a written report annuall, to the '

Plant Manager on the following:

s. 1) Actual system leakage rates as determined by the once J per fuel cycle measurements for each system in the program.

q

2) ' Analysis of the data indicating the reason for any high value and identifying corrective action to be taken.
3) Status of pending leakage related maintenance work requests or modifications.

.The Shoreham-leakage reduction and control program will be implemented prior to fuel-load. Before beginning full power operation, LILCO will submit to the NRC staff a report of actual measured leakage rates from all systems include . in the program and all preventative maintenance pe' formed as a direct result of the evaluation of this leakage. The report will also identify leakage criteria to be applied during the' first fuel cycle as the basis .for instituting corrective action in the forrt of preventative maintenance. Prior to the start of the second fuel cycle, LILC0 will revise the criteria as necessary based on the experience gained during Shoreham's first fuel cycle. The revised criteria shall then be used as the' basis for long term leakage mon'~.oring activity at Shoreham.

The following systems which may contain radioactive fluids during a serious transient or accident were not included in the Shoreham leakage reduction and control program for the reasons indicated:

-Suppression Pool Cleanup Mode of fuel Pool Cleanup System -

source: lines from suppression pool automatically isolate upon accident conditions.

-Drywell Equipment and Floor Drains - system isolates automatically upon accident conditions.

-Drywell Air Cooling System - system isolates automatically upon accident conditions.

-RBNVS - system secures upon accident conditions; reactor building ventilation handled by RBSVS which is included in leakage reduction and control program.

In regard to the North Anna and related incidents described in the NRC letter dated 10/17/79. LILC0 is following the recommendations outlined in I&E Circular No. 7s-21, " Prevention of Unplanned Releases of Rddio-

-activity". LILC0 is taking the following preventative measures:
