MEETING

SUMMARY

OF APRIL 21, 1993 On April 21, 1993, representatives of the Northern States Power Company'(NSP) met with members of the NRC staff at the Monticello Nuclear Plant site to provide the staff information regarding fire protection issues. Specifically, the meeting focused on the NSP analysis of associated circuits and the potential for hot shorts to impair safe shutdown of the plant in the event of a fire in the cable spreading or control room. Northern States Power Company presented an overview of alternate shutdown 1 methodology to be employed in the event of a fire in the cable spreading room. Northern States Power Company had just completed a revision of the procedure for transferring control to the alternate shutdown panel. The new procedure includes specific guidance to the control room staff.for determining when control should be transferred. Northern States Power Company explained the-independent routing of the Division' 2 cables 'in a hardened duct around the - cable spreading room. The routing is actually in a tunnel around the outside of the buf1 dings. Northern States Power Company presented a cable spreading room analysis which they used to identify shorts which would have the potential for equipment damage. Their procedure identified three such shorts: diesel fuel ' oil i transfer pump, emergency service water pump for cooling diesel, and RHR discharge valve. Northern States Power Company provided risk arguments which they believe eliminate concern over these three items. The NRC staff indicated that there may still be concern over the' service water pump. Although NRC conclusions will await completion of the trip report by Plant i Systems Branch (SPLB) and their consultant from Brookhaven. National Laboratories, we conveyed to the licensee that the information which they presented alleviated much of the staff concern. 0900G i ,,--'4 1 9306100279 930603 PDR ADOCK 05000263 l F PDR i

5. ALTERNATE AND DEDICATED SHUTDOWN CAPABILITY 5.3 Safe Shutdown and Fire Damage hd 5.3.1 Circuit Failure Modes

[ au ed g ggv QUESTION What circuit failure modes must be considered in identifying circuits #d associated by spurious actuation? M*' pMy yanur.

RESPONSE

Sections Ill.G.2 and Ill.L.7 of Appendix R define the circuit failure modes as hot shorts, open circuits, and shorts to ground. For consideration of spurious actuations, all possible functional failure states must be evaluated, that is, the component coula De energized or de-energized oy one or more of the above failure modes. Therefore,[ valves could fail open or clo l JMil open or closed. For three-phase AC circuits, the probability of getting a hYstiB~rt on all three phases in the proper sequence to cause spurious operation of a motor is considered sufficiently low as to not require evaluation except for any cases involving Hi/Lo pressure interfaces. For ungrounded DC circuits,if it can be shown that only two hot shorts of the proper polarity without grounding could cause spunous operation, no further evaluation is necessary except for any cases involving Hi/Lo prc ssure interfaces. pssa @9@ id;e s W W -hp gw. 1/oh151

GENERIC LETTER 86-10 (cont'd) 5.3.2 " Hot Short" Duration QUESTION If one mode of fire damage involves a " hot short" how long does that condition exist as a result of fire damage prior to terminating in a ground or open circuit and stopping the spurious actuation?

RESPONSE

We would postulate that a " hot short" cond_ition exists until action has been~ taken to isolate the given circuit from the fire area, or other actions as appropnate nave been taken to negate the effects of the spurious actuation. We do not postulate that the fire would eventually clear the " hot short." 5.3.10 Design Basis Plant Transients OUESTION What plant transients should be considered in the design of the alternative or dedicated shutdown systems?

RESPONSE

Per the criteria of Section Ill.L of Appendix R a loss of offsite power shall be assumed for a fire in any fire area concurrent with the following assumptions: a) The safe shutdown capability should not be adversely affected by any one spurious actuation or signal resulting from a fire in any plant area. b) The safe shutdown capability should not be adversely affected by a fire in any plant area which results in the loss of all automatic function (signals, logic) from the circuits located in the area in conjunction with one worst case spurious actuation or signal resulting from the fire. c) The sate shutdown capability should not be adversely affected by a fire in any plant area which results in spurious actuation of the redundant valves in any one high-low pressure interface line. l l/oh151
