3,17 Cent rel Peer Meat!ne, Ventilatine, and Air-cenditierine Evatem Are11earility:

Applies to the operability of the control room testing, ventilating, and air conditioning (NVAC) systems.

Ordertive:

To assure the capability of each control room HVAC system to minimise the amount of radioactivity f rom entering the control room in the event of an accident.

sce ri f i e nt i en A.

Two control room NVAC systems shall be operable during all modes of plant operation.

8.

With one control room NVAC system determined ineperables (1) Demonstrate once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> the partial recirculation mode of operation for the operable system, or place the operable system in the partial recirculation modet and (2) Restore the inoperable system within 7 days, or prepare and submit a special report to the Cor. mission in lieu of any cther report required by section 6.9, within the next 14 days, outlinang the action taken, the cause of the inoperability and l

the plans / schedule for restoring the HVAC system to operable status.

C.

With both control room HVAC systems dete. tined inoperable.

(1) During Power Operations place the reacter in the cold shutdown condition within 30 hcurs 5

(2) During Refueling n

(a) Cease irradiated fuel heraling operations; and (b) Cease all work on the reactor or its connected systems in the reactor building which could result in inadvertent releases of radioactive materials.

11111:

The operability of each control room HVAC system ensures that the E

control room will remain habitable for operations personnel during a postulated design basis accident. The control room envelope includes the control room panel area, the shift superviser's office, toilet room, kitchen, and lower cable spreading room, since systems A and 3 do not have NEPA filters or charcoal adsorbers, the supply f an and dampers for each system minimise the beta and gamma doses to the operators by providing positive pressurisation and 1!miting the j

makeup and infiltration air into the control-room envelope. For the supply of 2004 outside air to the control room anvelope, the doses increase to 29.1 rem beta and 3.14 rem gamma for the assumed 30 days; however, these values are within the allowable limits.

Atelicarility:

Applies to surveillance requirements for the control room heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (NVAC) systems.

i ohinetive To verify the capability of each control room NVAC system to minimise the amount of radioactivity from entering the control room in the event of an accident.

i gaggification Surveillance of each control room NVAC system shall be as follows:

l A.

At least once monthly: by initiating, from the control room, the partial roeirculation mode of operation, and by verifying that the system components are aligned such that the system is operating in this mode.

S.

At least once every refueling outages by verifying that in the partial recirculation mode of operation, the control room and lower cable spreading room are,

maintained at a positive pressure of 2 1/8 in. Wo relative to the outside aemosphere.

Baais:

74riodic surveillance of each control room NVAC system is required to ensure the operability of the eyetem. The operability of the system in conjunction with control room design provisions is based upon limiting the radiatien exposure to personnel occupying the control room to less than a 30-day integrated gamma dose of $ rom, and a 30-day integrated beta does of 30 rom.
