INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4.3.3.6 POST-ACCIDENT INSTRUMENTATION The OPERABILITY of the post-accident instrumentation ensures that sufficient information is available on selected plant parameters to monitor and assess these variables following an accident.

This capability is consistent with the recommen-dations of Regulatory Guide 1.97, " Instrumentation for Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Plants to Assess Plant Conditions During and Following an Accident," December 1975 and NUREG-0578, "TMI-2 Lessons Learned Task Force Status Report and Short Term l

Recommendations."

3/4.3.3.7 CHLORINE DETECTION SYSTEMS The OPERABILITY of the chlorine detection system ensures that sufficient capability is available to promptly detect and initiate protective action in the event of an accidental chlorine release. This capability is required to protect control room personnel and is consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.95, " Protection of Nuclear Power Plant Control Room Operators Against an Accidental Chlorine Release," February 1975.

]

3/4.3.3.8 FIRE DETECTION INSTRUMENTATION OPERABILITY of the fire detection instrur.entation ensures that adequate warning capability is available for the prompt detection of fires. This capabil-ity is required in order to detect and locate fires in their early stages.

Prompt detection of fires will reduce the potential for damage to safety related equip-ment aad is an integral element in the overall facility. fire protection program.

In the event that a portion of the fire detection instrumentation is in-operable, except for detectors located in the containment during Modes 1 and 2, the establishment of frequent fire patrols in the affected areas is required to provide detection capability until the inoperable instrumentation is restored to OPERABILITY.

l 3/4.3.4 TURSINE OVERSPEED PROTECTION This specification is provided to ensure that the turbine overspeed protec-

' tion instrumentation and the turbine speed control valves are OPERABLE and will l

protect the turbine from excessive overspeed.

Protection from turbine excessive overspeed is required since excessive overspeed of the turbine could generate potentially damaging missiles which could impact and damage safety related l

components, equipment or structures.

4 3/4.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES l

3/ 4. 4.1 REACTOR COOLANT LOOPS AND COOLANT CIRCULATION The plant is designed to operate with both reactor coolant loops and associated reactor coolant pumps in operation, and maintain DNBR above the limits specified by TS 3.2.4 during all normal operatiocs and anticipated transients.

In MODE 3, a single reactor coolant loop provides sufficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat; however, single failure considerations require that two loops be OPERABLE.

In MODES 4 and 5, a single reactor coolant loop or shutdown cooling loop provides sufficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat; but single failure considerations require that at least two loops be OPERABLE.

Thus, if the reactor coolant loops are not OPERABLE, this specification requires two shutdown cooling loops to be OPERABLE.

The operation of one Reactor Coolant Pump or one shutdown cooling pump provides adequate flow to ensure mixing, prevent stratification and produce gradual reactivity changes during boron concentration reductions in the Reactor The reactivity change rate associated with boron reductions Coolant System.

esill, therefore, be within the capability of. operator recognition and control.

3/4.4.2 and 3/4.4.3 SAFETY VALVES The pressurizer code safety valves' operate to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above its Safety Limit of 2750 psia.

Each safety valve is' designed to relieve 420,000 lbs per hour of saturated steam at the valve setpoint. The relief capacity of a single safety valve is adequate to relieve any over-pressure condition which could occur during shutdown.

In the event that no safety valves are OPERABLE, an operating shutdown cooling loop, connected to the RCS, provides overpressure relief capability and will prevent RCS over-pressurization.

During operation, all pressurizer code safety valves must be OPERABLE to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above its safety limit of 2750 psia.

The combined relief capacity of these valves is sufficient to limit the Reactor Coolant System pressure to within its Safety Limit of 2750 psia following a cceplete loss of turbine generator load while operating at RATED THEPRAL POWER and assuming no reactor trip until the first Reactor Protective System trip setpoint (Pressurizer Pressure-High) is reached (i.e., no credit is taken for a direct reactor trip on the loss of turbine) and also assuming no operation of the steam dump valves.

ARKANSAS - UNIT 2 B 3/4 4-1 Amendment No. 24, 00

REACTOR COOLANT T.': iEM BASES Demonstration of the safety valves' lift.s'ettings will occur only during shutdown and will be performed in accordance with the provisions of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

3/4.4.4 PRESSURIZER A steam bubble in the pressurizer ensures that the RCC is not a hydraulically solid system and is capable of accommodating pressure surges during operation. The steam bubble also protects the pressurizer code safety valves against water relief.

The ' steam bubble functions to relieve RCS pressure during all design transients.

The requirement that 150 KW of pressurizer heaters and their associated controls be capable of being supplied electrical power from an emergency ous provides assurance that these heaters can be-energized during 'a loss.-of-offsite power condition to maintain natural' circulation at HOT STANDBY.

i lt3/4.4.5 STEAM GENERATORS I

The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained.

The program for inservic~e inspection of steam generator tubes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, tiRevision 1.

Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential

! in order-to maintain surveillance of the conditions of the tubes in the

!,eventthatthereisevidenceofmechanicaldamageorprogressivedegra-; d Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing also

!jleadtocorrosion.l;provides a means of characterizing the nature and cause of a iicegradation so that corrective measures can be taken.

i{l; The plant is expected to be operated in a manner such that the

! {i secondary coolant will be maintained within those chemistry limi

! to result in negligible corros-ion of the steam generator tubes.

If the secondary coolant chemistry is not maintained within these limits, The i j iocalized corrosion may likely result in stress corrosion cracking.

' extent of cracking during plant operation would be limited by the limitation,of steam generator tube leakage between the primary coolant system and the secondary coolant system (primary-to-secondary leakage =

0.5 GPM per steam generator).

Cracks having a primary-to-secondary leakage less than this limit during operation will have an adequate margin of safety to withstand the loads imposed during normal operation and by postulated accidents.

Operating plants have demonstrated that

, primary-to-secondary leakage of 0.5 GPM per steam generator can readily t ' be detected by radiation monitors of steam generator blowdown.

Leakage

. l in excess of this limit will require plant shutdown and an unscheduled inspection, during which the leaking tubes will be located and plugged.

3/4.9 REFUELING OPERATIONS BASES 3/4.9.1 BORON CONCENTRATION _

The limitations on reactivity conditions during REFUELING ensure that:

1) the reactor will remain subcritical during CORE ALTER,ATIONS, and 2) a uniform boron concentration is maintained for reactivity control in the water volume having direct access to the reactor vessel. These limita-tions are consistent with the initial conditions assumed for the boron dilution incident in the accident analyses.

3/4.9.2 INSTRUMENTATION The OPERABILITY of the source range neutron flux monitors ensures that redondant. monitoring capability is available to detect changes in the reactivity condition of the core.

3/4.9.3 DECAY TIME The minimum requirement for reactor subcriticality prior to movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the reactor pressure vessel ensures that sufficient time has elapsed to allow the radioactive decay of the short lived fission products. This decay time is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses.

3/4.9.4 CONTAIN"ENT PENETRATIONS i

The requirements on containment penetration closure and OPERABILITY of the containment purge and exhaust system HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers ensure that a release of radioactive material within contain-ment will be restricted from leakage to the environment or filtered through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers prior +o discharge to the atmo-sphere.

The OPERABILITY and closure restrictions arc sufficient to restrict radioactive material release from a fuel element rupture based l

upon the lack,of containment pressuri:ation potential while in the REFUELING MODE. Operation of the contair. ment purge and exhaust system l

HEPA filters.and charcoal adsorbers and the resulting iodine removal capacity are consistent with the assumptions of the accident analyses.

~~

BASES 3/4.9.5 COMMUNICATIONS

. The requirement for communications capability ensures that refueling station personnel can be promptly informed of significant changes in the facility status or core reactivity condition during CORE ALTERATIONS.

3/4.9.6 REFUELING MACHINE OPERABILITY The OPERABILITY requirements for the refueling machine ensure that:

1) the refueling machine will be used for movement of CEAs with fuel assemblies i

and that it has sufficient load capacity to lift a fuel assembly, and 2) the core internals and pressure vessel are protected from excessive lifting force in the event they are inadvertently engaged during lifting operations.

3/4.9.7 CRANE TRAVEL - SPENT FUEL STORAGE BUILDING The restriction on movement of loads in excess of the nominal weight of a fuel assembly, CEA and associated handling tool over other fuel assemblies in j

the storage pool ensures that in the event this-load is ' dropped (1) the

' activity release will be limited to that contained in a single fuel assembly, l

and (2) any possible distortion of fuel in the storage racks will not result in a critical array. This assumption is consistent with the activity release assumed in the accident analyses.

.3/4.9.8 SHUTDOWN COOLING AND COOLANT CIRCULATION i,

The requirement that at least one shutdown cooling loop be in operation ensures that (1) sufficient cooling capacity is available to remove decay heat and maintain the water in the reactor pressure vessel below 140 F as required l-during the REFUELING MODE, and (2) sufficient coolant circulation is maintained j

through the reactor core to minimize the effects of a boron dilution incident and prevent boron stratification.

The requirenent to have two shutdown cooling loops OPERABLE when there is less than 23 feet of water above the core ensures that a single failure of the operating shutdown cooling loop will not result in a complete loss of decay heat removal capability. With the reactor vessel head removed and 23 feet of water above the core, a large heat sink is available for core cooling, thus in the event of a failure of the operating shutdown cooling loop, adequate time is provided to initiate emergency procedures to cool the core.
