ENCLOSURE 2 JUSTIFICATION The shutdown boards are separated into two subaceas (rooms) corresponding to train A and train B emergency power. Following an accident, the boards in either subarea have the capability for safe shutdown of the unit. The attendant air handling equipment consists of two 100 percent capacity air conditioning units--one for each subarea. Either air conditioning unit can remove 100 percent of the heat produced by electrical equipment in either subacea. Therefore, the air handling system provides redundant cooling I
capacity to the shutdown boards. The action statement associated with the
- proposed technical specification addition will allow maintenance and testing of the redundant air conditioning unit while maintaining safe shutdown capability with the other cooling unit operating.
- I O
~ SNP-68 s Radiation mon'itors are calibrated and tested periodically using a calibrated check source to verify the instruments response and alarm functions. Thermo-stats and smoke detectors are tested periodically..
The battery rooms sentilating system is in continuous operation, and the ex-haust fans are accessible for periodic inspection.
The air-conditioning system filter cells shall have their filtering media re-placed upon a resistance buildup to 1-inch water gauge static pressure differ- .
ential. -
Environnental conditions vary only slightly under normal operation and simulated conditions should be such as to prove design conditions.
9.4.2 AUXILIARY BUILDING 9.4.2.1 Design Bases The auxiliary building ventilating systems serve all areas of the auxiliary building including the radwaste areas and the- fuel handling area. Separate subsystems are utilized for the environmental control of the shutdown board rooms, auxiliary board rooms, and other miscellaneous rooms and laboratories.
The ventilating systems also incorporate individual cubicle coolers to provide supplementary cooling to specific safety feature equipment.
The auxiliary building ventilating systems are designed to maintain acceptable
([ environmental conditions for personnel access, operation, inspection, mainte-nance, testing and protection of mechanical and electrical equipment, and controls.
and to limit the release of radioactivity to the environment during all weather 35 conditions. These building environmental control systems are designed to maintain l .
all building temperatures (except steam valve rooms) between 60 F minimum --
and 110 F maximum during outdoor design temperatures ranging from 15 F in- 58~
winter to 97 F in summer. The steam valve rooms are maintained between 80 F and 120 F.
The shutdown board, auxiliary control and battery board rooms at El 734, and the auxiliary board, and battery rooms at El 749 are cooled by mechanical
^
refrigeration. These air-conditioning systems are designed to limit maximum 34 room temperatures to less than 80 F DB and 68 F WB. The shutdown board room, and auxiliary control room at El 734 are maintained at approximately 75 F DB and 50 percent relative humidity. .
The auxiliary building is considered divided into four separately controlled l68 and isolated types of areas as follows:
- 1. The fuel-handling area at El 734; the penetration rooms at El 734 and l34 i
El 759; and the fuel, waste, and cask handling areas at El 706 and El 669.
- 2. The general building and penetration room areas at El 653, El 669, El 690, and El 714. .

To control airborne activity, the ventilation air is supplied to clean areas, e then routed to areas of progressively greater contamination potential. Areas ..
of the building which are subject to radioactive contamination are maintained l at a slight negative pressure to limit outleakage. In addition, the system has the capability of isolating the contaminated areas from the outdoors.
56 l All exhaust air is routed through a duct system, and is discharged into the auxiliary building exhaust stack which is located atop the auxiliary building, and extends a distance of 43 feet above the roof.-
34 Two 100 percent capacity gas treatment system filter trains, consisting of pre and HEPA filters and carbon adsorbers, are provided for operation upon indication of high radiation in the exhaust air from auxiliary building potentially contaminated areas or upon an isolation signal from either reactor unit. The filter trains are automatically energized and a reduced quantity of building exhaust is diverted through the filter trains and discharged into the shield building exhaust vent. This is located within the annulus space of the reactor building and extends to the top of the reactor building.
9.4.2.1.1 Auxiliary Building Gas Treatment System ,
34 The auxiliary building gas treatment system is discussed in Subsection 6.2.3. ,
9.4.2.2 System Description I
The auxiliary building ventilation systems are shown on Figures 9.4-4, 9.4-5, 9.4-6, and 9.4-19. Logic and Control is shown on Figures 9.4-7 through gjg 60 9.4-12.
The auxiliaty building ventilation and cooling systems consist of the following subsystems:
- 1. Building air supply and exhaust system (general ventilation).
- 2. Building cooling system (chilled water).
l
- 3. Safety feature equipment coolers.
- 4. Shutdown board room air-conditioning system.
- 5. Auxiliary board room air-conditioning system. ,
- 6. Shutdown transformer room ventilation system.
- 7. Miscellaneous ventilation and air-conditioning systems.
9.4.2.2.1 Building Air Supply and Exhaust Systems (General Ventilation)
The supply system filters 100 percent of outdoor air through a bank of filters for each of two mechanical equipment rooms located at opposite ends of the building at El 714.0. The filters have a nominal efficiency of 85 percent based on the NBS atmospheric dust spot test. ,{,3

~~
During periods when the outdoor air temperature is below 40 F, 240 F hot '
water is supplied to hearing / cooling air intake coils to temper the in-coming air. ,
J During periods when outdoor ambient temperature is above 60 F, chilled water is supplied to heating / cooling air ' intake coils to increase cool- I ing capacity of ventilation air. Between outdoor temperatures of 40-60 F, unconditioned air is supplied. The auxiliary building general ventila- [
tion system controls are designed to maintain building temperature between J 80 F and 104 F during the summer.
The heating / cooling coils are composed of 12 coil sections arranged in 4 banks with 3 coils in each bank. The coils are sized to heat approxi-mately 200,000 cfm of outdoor air from 0 F to 60 F when supplied from i Turbine Building heating system with 240 F hot water. The coils have the capability to cool 200,000 cfm of outdoor air from 97 F to 85 F when supplied from one of the general cooling system water chilling machines with 72 F chilled water. -
The air supply system utilizes four 50 percent capacity supply fans with two located in each of the two mechanical equipment rooms at El 714.0.
During normal operation, one fan in each equipment room is in operation '
with the other fan in the standby mode.
Fan inlet dampers are used to reduce the volume of supply air during low outdoor temperature conditions to conserve heat. Supply air is ducted to various clean or accessible areas of the auxiliary building and fuel handling areas from where it flows f

to areas of progressively greater contamination potential before being ex-hausted through a duct system by the building exhaust fans. l 34 The building supply fans are belt-driven centrifugal type located downstream of the heating / cooling coils. Each fan is rated at 100,000 cfm at 5.75-inch water gauge static pressure. Each fan is driven by a nominal 150-hp motor. 34 l These fans are not ESF equipment and are not energized from emergency power. l The building supply filters are composed of 2 banks with 87 individual filter cells per filter bank. Each filter bank is rated at 85 percent efficiency l 34 8 based on NBS atmospheric dust spot test.
Manually adjustable modulating type fan inlet dampers rze used to reduce volume of supply air. 34 The general exhaust from the Auxiliary Building is provided by four exhaust fans each rated at 50 percent of system capacity. These fans are controlled in blocks of two; during normal operations one fan is in operation and the remaining fan is 56 in the standby mode. These fans are located on the roof of the Auxiliary Building and discharge into the auxiliary building exhaust vent.
Air utilized to ventilate the fuel handling area, vaste packaging, and cask a shipping area is exhausted by the fuel handling area exhaust fans. An l 56 exhaust duce system from the waste packaging area and cask loading area is connected to a duct system around the periphery of the opent fuel pit and fuel transfer canal. Thus, exhaust air from the fuel handling area passes l 34 across the spent fuel pit forming an air curtain across the pool. Two 100 percent capacity fuel handling exhaust fans are provided. During normal operation one fan is in use with the other in the standby mode. The dis- 56 charge from these fans is directed into the auxiliary building exhaust stack.
An inlet damper, furnished with each auxiliary building exhaust and fuel handling area exhaust fan, is used to regulate the volum.e of air exhausted as required 34 to maintain 1/4-inch water gauge negative pressure within the building. These dampers are automatically operated by atatic pressure controllers.
During periods of high radiation in the auxiliary building exhaust, or fuel handling area exhaust, or upon initiation of a containment isolation signal, the auxiliary building supply and exhaust fans and the fuel handling exhaust fans are automatically stopped. Low leakage dampers located in the ducts which penetrate the auxiliary building are closed. An isolation barrier is thus formed between the building and the outdoor environment, and the auxiliary building gas' treatment system is placed in service (see Subsection 6.2.3). '
The building exhaust fans are belt-driven centrifugal type rated at 84,000 cfm each at 6-inch water gauge static pressure. Each fan _is driven by a nominal 125-hp motor.

9.4.2.2.2 Building Cooling System (Chilled Water)
The purpose of the building cooling system is to supplement the general ventilation system and to maintain a more confortable temperature in auxiliary building general spaces at conditions other than design maximum. The building cooling system consists of (2) 100 percent capacity packaged water chillers, each rated at 400-ton nominal capacity, (2) 100 percent capacity primary loop .
circulating pumps, each rated at 800 gpm at 70-ft head, (2) 100 percent capacity secondary loop circulating punps, each rated at 800 gpm at 120-f t head, (6) fan-coil -
34 type air handling units, and associated piping, duct work and controls.
I Primary and secondary chilled water circulating loops are designed for mixing supply and return water to obtain a variable coil inlet temperature, mainly _ , ,
47F to 72F, to minimize unnecessary latent heat removal. Primary loop pump 22;)
provides circulation of water through the water chiller, whereas the secondary loop pump circulates chilled water to air intake heating / cooling coils and also to the six air handling units located in various areas where ventilation air alone is not sufficient to maintain the 104F maximum space temperature.
The twelve heating / cooling coils, located in the building air intake at E1.714.0, I are designed to cool a total of 200,000 cfm of outside air, during cooling season, from 97F to 85F when supplied with 72F chilled water, or heat, during heating 38] season, the outside supply air from.15'F to 60F when supplied with 240F hot water.

emergency power. Four separate air-conditioning systems are provided ,
to serve one each of the four plant subareas. Following an accident, the boards in either subarea have the capability for the safe shutdown of the unit.
The attendant air-conditioning equipment for each subarea, sized to j recove 1007. of heat produced by electrical equipment in that subarea, y '
are therefore redundant.
Per plant unit, the train A air-conditioning equipment located within 34 -
the El. 749.0 mechanical equipment room, and the train B air-conditioning 1 r
equipment is located on the roof above within a housing for protection 1 from outdoor environmental hazards.
Each board room air-conditioning system contains a refrigerant compressor, air-cooled condenser, a f an-coil air handling unit with direct-expansion ,
V cooling coil (s), two 100 percent pressurizing air supply f ans, air supply distribution system, and control and safety devices. . , .
Two 100 percent capacity roof ventilator exhaust fans located on the roof of each of the four separate battery rooms on El. 749 provide con- .
tinuous ventilation to prevent the possible accumulation of dangerous hydrogen gas.
~
The two 100 percent capacity pressurizing air supply fans per air-conditioning system serve a twofold purpose. One is to replacq a portion o,f air-condition-ing system air exhausted through the battery room and the other is to ,
pressurize the board room to prevent infiltration of contaminated air. The mixture of this makeup air and board room return air is conditioned upon passing through the air handling unit.
~
One pressurizing air supply f an and one battery room exhaust fan in each >
individual air-conditioning system are connected to train A power with the -
other fan pair connected to train B power. Control system interlocks pro- s vide simultaneous operation of the pressurizing air supply f an and battery -
room exhaust fan. The availability of this f an combination on either power -
. train insures continuous ven'tilation in each battery room regardless of V, operability of the direct-expansion air-conditioning equipment. In the event of air-conditioning system failure, pressurizing fan air is drawn through the norcal board room supply ducts by the battery room exhaust fan.

Both fans per room -are thermostatically controlled to automatically operate upon room temperature rise above 100*F. The DC-powered fan will also auto-matica11y run upon pump start.
- The turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump rooms emergency exhaust fans are each the roof ventilator-type rated at 1200 cfm at 0.25 inch water gauge static pressure and driven by a nominal 1/2-hp motor. These fans are designed tc circulate a sufficient quantity of building air through their rooms to limit the maximum temperature rise to approximately 20*F above ambient.
The waste gas analyzer room is located in the sample room on Unit 2. Air enters the waste gas analyzer room through a door with a transfer grille and a back-38 draft damper. Air at the rate of 100 cfm is exhausted into the suction of both sample room exhaust fans on Unit 2 and filtered through the sample room hood exhaust HEPA filter before being discharged inta the general building exhaust system.
The reactor building steam valve rooms each have an independent ventilation O
system consisting of two fully redundant roof mounted exhaust fans, one of 68 which normally operates with one on standby. The normally operating fan draws outside ventilation air for room cooling through a wall opening near the floor. Wintertime space temperature control is maintained by inlet vanes which modulate airflow in response to'a wall mounted thermostat.

The auxiliary building supply inlets are located near ground level on each side of the building. The inlet area is of sufficient size to limit the incoming air stream velocity to approximately 500 fpm. '
The building air supply filters are rated 85 percent efficiency based on NBS atmospheric dust spot test.
Auxiliary building fuel handling areas, reactor building penetration rooms and other spaces located below El. 734 are continuously maintained at a sligt.t nega-cive pressure relative to outdoors to minimize outleakage. During normal opera-56 tions, these spaces are exhausted to the outdoors. During e.

REPA filter cells are rated for an initial resistance of approximately 1.0-inch water gauge when clean and shall be replaced upon an increase in resistance to 2.0 inches.
To guaian~te'e proper cperation of the steam relief valves, the steii~ valve room exhaust fans modulate in response to a wall mounted thermostat to assure that room ambient temperatures do no fall below 80 F during the heating season. In the event extreme outside wintertime conditions still 68 result in room temperatures falling below 80 F, the fans automatically shutdown.
9.4.2.4 Inspection and Testing Requirements The auxiliary building environment control systems are in continuous operation and are accessible for periodic inspection. Essential electrical components, O"u swithcovers, and starting controls are tested initially and periodically.
HEPA filter cells are tested in place initially and periodically with DOP.
Radiation monitors are calibrated and tested periodically using a calibrated check scure,e to verify the instruments response and alarm functions. Thermo- ,
stats and smoke detectors are tested periodically.
9.4.3 RADWASTE AREA 9.4.3.1 Design Bases The auxiliary building ventilating systems serve all of the radwaste areas which are ;;hysically located within the auxiliary building at El 690, 669 and i 653. These areas are continuously ventilated, and the exhaust air is continu-I ously filtered to limit the release of radioactive material to the atmosphere.
Filtered and heated or cooled (if necessary) fresh air is mechanically suppliad l 34 to the general occupied or access areas of each floor by the auxiliary building main air supply system. Air is mechanically exhausted from each radwaste equip-ment room ar.d directly from individual radwaste tanks, sumps and equipment by the auxiliary building main exhaust system. All. exhaust air is routed through duct building exhaust' stack.
Q:p All radwaste areas are continuously maintained at a slight negative pressure relative to minimize exfiltration of air to other portions of the building.
A radiation-monitoring system is provided to detect and annunciate high activity in the building exhausts. _

9.4.4 TURBINE BUILDING 9.4.4.1 Design Bases 34 The turbine building heating, cooling and ventilating systems are designed to maintain an acceptable building environment for the protection of plant equipment and controls; for the comfort and safety of operating personnel;
.?nd to allow personnel access for the operation, inspection, maintenance, and testing of mechanical and electrical equipment.
The building environmental control systems are designed to maintain building temperatures between 50 F minimum and 110 F maximum during all outdoor 38 l temperature conditions ranging from 15 to 97 F, by use of forced ventilation, mechanical cooling, and heating systems.
9.4.4.2 Ventilation 60 The Turbine Building Heating and Ventilation Systems are shown on Figures 9.4-13, 9.4-14 and 9.4-15.
The building can be considered to contain four large rooms: Ei 732.0 turbine room, El 706.0 spaces, El 685.0 spaces, and El 662.5 spaces. Because El 732.0 floor is predominantly concrete and thus isolated from the remaining floors below, the turbine building ventilation is provided by two separate sys te ms . One system serves El 732.0 spaces, and the other system provides 34 ventilation for the spaces on El 706.0 and El 685.0, with no direct ventilation provision for spaces on El 662.5.
Basically, both ventilation systems operate on the basis of mechanically supplying a continuous flow of outside air.co spaces being ventilated, and exhausting the building air to outdoors.
Each supply and exhaust fan is provided with a motor operated damper designed to automatically close when fan is stopped to prevent air back-flow.-
