2.

By verifying that each motor operated valve in the recirculation j

spray flow paths performs satisfactorily when tested in accordance with Specification 4.0.3.

3.

At least once per 5 years, coincident with the closest refueling outage, by performing on air or smoke flow test and verifying each l

spray nozzle is unobstructed.

1 C.

Each weight loaded check valve in the containtnent spray and outside containment recirculation spray subsystems shall be demonstrated operable at least once per 18 months,' during shutdown, by cycling the l

valve one complete cycle of full' travel and verifying that each valve opens when the discharge line of the pump is pressurized with air and seats when a vacuum is applied.

D.

A visualinspection of the containment sump and the inside containment j

recirculation spray pump wells and t,he engineered safeguards suction-inlets shall be performed at least once each refueling period and/or after major maintenance activities in the containment. The inspection should verify that the containment sump and pump wells are free of debris that could degrade system operation and that the sump components (i.e.,

trash racks, screens) are properly installed and show no sign of structural distress or excessive corrosion.

U The flow testing of each containment spray pump is performed by opening the normally closed valve in the containment spray pump recirculation line returning water to the refueling water storage tank. The containment spray pump is operated and-a quantity of water recirculated to the refueling water storage tank. The discharge to the tank is divided into two fractions; one for the major portion of the recirculation flow and the other to pass a small quantity of water through test nozzles which are identical with those used in the containment spray headers. The purpose of the recirculation through the test nozzles is to assure that there are no particulate materialin the refueling water storage tank small enough to pass through pump suction strainers and large enough to clog spray nozzles.

This Unit 1 test requirement can be extended to the Cycle 10 refueling outage.
