DISCUSSI0'!
Page 1 of the " Definitions" secticn of the Technical Specifications is revised to incorporate a definition for " Operating Modes", as requested and as contained in our application dated January - 27,1970. The remainder of Page 1 of the " Definitions" section remains unchanged.
The following justificulons apply to Table 3-1 of the referenced application:
Iten 1.a.
This check is to be performed during the power operating mode only, since a comparison of the power output indication from the power range safety channels can enly be made during power cperation. Performance of this chech during other operating modes provides no meaningful information.
Item 1.b.
Adjustments to the power range safety channels can only be made during the power operation mode, with the power level above 205 of rated power, since heat balance calculations below this value are inaccurate. Adj ust-ments made while the plant is in other operating modes vould result. in erroneous output indication from the power range safety channels.
I te n 1. c.
The calibration and testing of the power range channels using the internal test cignal to verif" trips, alams, etc. cannot be performed when the plant is in a cold shutdown or refueling eendition because the power range safety channels are outside of their norral operatin ; range-
. In additica, the calibration and testing while the plant is in a cold shutdevn er refueling mode does not provide any meaningful or useful in-formation.
Item 2.a.
This check vill be performed every shift in all cperating mc des.
Iten 2.b.
This test will be performed prior to each startup while the plant is in a cold shutdown ecnditicn only, since the performance of this test in other operating modes is impossible and would not provide meaningful in fomaticn. The specification vill be satisfied by performing the test in this operating node.

,o y
Item 3. a.
This check cannot be performed while the ' plant is in a cold shutdown or refueling node, cince the reactor coolant pumps are normally not in service and, therefore, flow signals are not available.
Iten 3.b.
This calibration cannot be performed while the plant is in power operation or hot standby, since access to the sensors is not possible or decirable due to high radiation levels.
Performcace of this test at each 18 month interval, while in the cesignated operating mode, vill pro-vide adequate calibratica of these loop devices and vill satisfy the speci fic at icn.
Item 1.c.
This test vill not be perf
.ed while in the cold shutdown or re-l fueling modes becauce the test vould not provide any meaningful inforn-i aticn and reactor coolant flow circuitr/ need not be operable daring these moder, of operation.
Item h.a.
These cl.ecks vould not be performed when the plant is in a ccid shut-down or refueling mode, civace the rence of temperature indication is nct sufficient to perform testinc at less than 5150F.
Item h.b.
The calibration vculd be performed at each 18 month interval while the plant la in hot shutdown, cold shutdown, or refueling modes. Per-i formance of these calibrations requires acceca to the pressure and tem-perature sensors and, therefore, is not performed when the plant is in power operation or het ctandby due to inaccessibility of thece sensors.
The requirement of the Technical Specifications can be fulfilled by per-forming these calibratient during the specified modes of operatien.
Item L.c.
These ' testa vould not to performed when the plant is in the cold chutdevn or refueling modec, since no meaningful information could be obtained and operability of the TM/LP circuitry is not required in the cold shutdown or refueling modes.
Iten 5.a.
These checks vould not be performed when the plant is in the cold shutdown or refueling modes, cince these pressure indicators 'are not utilized durin6 Jov or reduced prescure operation.
2
s.
Item 5.b.
These calibraticns would not be performed when the plant is in the power operation, hot shutdown, or hot standby conditions, since access to the sensors is restricted because of radiological considerations. The l
perron ance of the test during each 18 nonth interval, while in the cold shut-down or refueling ccdes, will satisfy the requirement of this specification.
Iten 5.c.
These testa vould not be performed while the plant is in a cold shutdown er refueling condition, since no neaningful information could be obtained and the high pressuricer pressure circuitry is not required in these codes of operation.
Item 6.n.
'"hese checks vill not te performed when the plant is in a cold-shutdem condition because the sieam generator levels may be in a tran-sitica state and no meaningful data vould be obtained.
In addition, the operability of the ste1= cenerator level circuitry is not required in this cperating mode.
Item 6.b.
These calibraticns would te done at each 18 =cnth interval, regard-less of the cperating mode of the plant.
Item 6. c.
These tests veuld not be perferred while the plant is in a cold shutdevn er refueling ecnditien, since no neaningful infcrmation could be cbtained and the operability of these circuits is not required in there operating medes.
Item 7.s.
These checks vould net be performed while the plant is in a refuel-ing =cde, since no pressure indicaticns are available.
Iten *
.2.
These calibraticns would be perforned at each refueling, reg 1rdless of the operating r.cde of the plant.
Iten 7.c.
These tests would not be perforced while the plant is in a cold shutdown or refueling mode, since no meaningful information could be obtained and the operability of the steam generator circuitry is not re-quired in these operating medes.

Item 9.a.
Thic test would be perfomed at a cpecified interval while the plant in in a het shutdown ecnditicn cnly, since the perfomance of this test, while the plant is in the power cperating or hot standby modes, vill re-sult in a turbine trip and, while the plant is in a cold shutdown or re.
fueling mode, the turbine main steam stop valves are not open.
Item 10.a.
This test vould be perfcrmed at a specified interval while the plant is in a hot shutdown conditicn enly, since the performance of this test, while the plant is in the power cperating or hot standby modes, vill re-sult in a turbine trip and, while the plant is in a co3 d shutdown or re-fueling mode, the turbine main steam stcp valvec are not open.
Iten 11.a.
In order to perfom this test, the CD'4 clutches nuct be energiced.
These clutches may not te energiced in operating modes other than power cperntien and hot standby.
Iten 12.a.
These checkc would be performed during a power operating mode only, since adequate pcver signals are not available for the nececsary ecmpari-cens until the plant is at a p0ver level greater than 155.
Iten 12.b.
These calibrations vill be perforned regardless of the operating node cf the plant.
Item 12.e.
These tests vould not be performed while the plant is in the cold shutdcun er r Neling conditions, since these circuits are out of ser-vice or incperable during these modes.

vhile the plant is In a cold shutdevn or refueling mode and would saticfy this Technical Specification.
Item 1.c.
There tests vould not be performed while the plant is in a cold shutdown or refueling mode, since the tests would not provide any mean-ingful informatien, and these instrument channels are inoperable during these medes.
Item 2.a.
These calibratiens are part of the calibrations listed in Item 1.b.
end, therefore, the sane justificaticn applies.
Item 3.a.
These tests are performed to dencnstrate operability of che saf ety injectica actuation circuits which t.re not required during cold shutdown or refueling ecnditions and, therefore, the performance of these tests when tl:e plant is in these operatirc modes prevides no useful information and, additienally, these circuits may be inoperable during the cold shut-down or refueling medes.
Item L L.
This test is performed cnly while the plant is in a refueling mode, since the reactor ecolant system must be in the refueling mode before the test can be performed, i.e., reactor /essel head removed. Performing the test in the specified cperating mode vill satisfy thic specificatien.
Item L.a.
The calibration of this circuit while the plant is in the cold shut-down or refueling modes vill satisfy this specification.
Item h.b.
This test vill not be performed while the plant is in the refueling mode, since the containment pressure high signal is not necessary to in-sure plant safety when the plant is in the refueling mode.
5

3.0 SuavEIuANCE REOUIRE*ENTS 3.h Reactor coolant System Intecrity Testing Applicability Applies to test requirements for reactor coolant systen integrity.
Objective To specify test for reactor coolant syste= integrity after the syste:
is closed following normal opening, modification or repair.
Specifications (1)
Whenever the reactor coolant systen is closed after it has been opened, the systen shall be leak tested at not less than 2150 psia prior to the reactor being =ade critical. Operating Mode Required Tor Testir.g: ?erfor=ed when allowed by Techni-cal Specificaticn 2.1.2.
(2)
Whenever modificatiens or repairs are =ade in the reactor coolant syste= that involve new stren6th velds on ec=ponents greater than 2 inch diameter, the new welds shall receive both a surface and 100% volumetric exaninaticn and shril meet all applicable code require =ents., Operating Mode Required For Testing: k or 5 (3)
Whenever =cdifiestions or repairs are made in the reactor coolant system that involve new strength velds on ec=ponents 2 inch dia eter or smaller, the new velds shall receive a surface examinaticn.
Operating Mode Required Fcr Testing:
h or 5 Basis For normal operation, the integrity of the reactor coolant syste=,
in terms of strength, is unchanged.
If the systen does not leak at 2150 psia (operating pressure + 50 psi; +50 psia is normal sys-tem pressure fluctuation), it vill be leak tight during normal oper-ation.
For repairs on ec=penents greater than 2 inch diameter, the thorough non-destructive testing gives a very high degree of confidence in the integrity of the reactor ecolant systen and vill detect any significant defects in and near the new velds.
Repairs on ec=ponents 2 inch diameter or smaller are relatively ninor in co=parison and the surface examination assures a similar standard of integrity.
In all cases, the leak test will ensure leak tightness during normal operation.

~
35 cer.tainment Tect (continued) uniformly apart vill be examined. Unless experience in-t dicates othervice, successive inspections vill be per-formed on three dome tendens, cne from each layer, and on three vall tendens of each orientation.
The surveillance tendons shall be inspected as follows:
(1)
Lift-off readings shall be taken on each of the tendens selected to determine the load existing i
in the tenden at the time of inspection. At each surveillance period, readings may also be taken on the load cells of the special instru-
- r mented tendons. Force reductions on the cur-veillance tendens and on the instrumented ten-dons vill be ecmpared.
If goed correlation' exists between these two groups of tendons through several surveillance periods, consideration vill be given to eliminating some lift-off readings and coni-toring of the lead cells as an alternative. Ec h selected tenden shall be ccepletely detensioned and examined for breken vires and any evidence of damage or deterioratien of anchcrage hardware.
(ii)
One wire from each of three helical tendons and one wire of a done tenden shall be removed. Each removed wire shall be carefully examined over its entire length for evidence of cerrosion er other deleterious effects. Tensile tests shall
[
be made en at least three samples cut from each of the four vires removed, one at each end and one at midlength, the samples being of a maxi::ium length practical for testing.
In special cases, the use of fatigue tests and accelerated corrosion tests may be considered.
i (iii)
Ccmparisons shall be made between the quality cen-trol records and each of the surveillance inspecticn i
records for each of the surveillance tendens.
j After completion of the tenden surveillance the individual l
detensiened tendons shall be retensiened to a force ecm-(
mensurate with the average vire stresc indicated by the last lift-off reading for that tenden.
I b.
Accentance Criteria Acceptance criteria for the tendens are as follevs:
(i)
The tendon force determined by the lift-off test shall'be considered adequate if it is not less than the force shown on the appropriate lower li=it curve of FSAR Figure 5.10 4, as adjusted
[
for vire removal, for the elapsed time between i
the original prestressing and the particular l

surveillance period. These lower limit curves have been generated by calculating the' difference between the anticipated tenden force at end of l
plant life and the minimum tendon force to meet the design requirements. One half of this dir-ference has been added to the anticipated total I
loss of prestress at thc end of plant life and the curves have been drawn to meet this limit.
Since the lock-off force on individual tendons i
is varied to compensate for elastic shortening of the structure, the tenden force at 70% of ulti-mate strength, rather than the actual lock-off-l force shall be taken as the initial prestress force. An allevable limit of not more than one defective tenden out of the total sample popula-tion is acceptable, provided an adjacent tendon on each side of the defective tendon is tested i
and is found to meet criteria. Should cne of the -
I adjacent tendons be also found defective, the Cc= mission shall be notified in accordance with Re6ulatory Guide 1.16, " Reporting of Operating i
Information".

(ii)
No unexpected change ir. corrosien conditions or grease ;roperties.
(iii)
All th2 ee tensile tests en any one wire indicate
[
an ultimate strength at least equal to the speci-fled minimum ulti= ate strength of the vire. If a single test en any cne wire shows an ultimate i
strength less than the specified minimum, the Commission vill be notified in accordance with i

Basis The safety injection syste= and the centainment cooling syste= are principal plant safeguards that are n,ct cperated during nor=al re-actor operation.
Co=plete systems tests cannot be perferred when the reactor is operating because a safety injectica signal causes contain=ent isolaticn and a centainment spray syste= test requires the syste=
to be temporarily disabled. The =ethod of assuring operability of these syste=s is, therefore, to ec=bine systems tests to be performed during refueling shutdowns in additien to =cre frequent ec=ponent tests which can be perfer=ed during reactor operation.
The refueling shutdown tests demenstrate preper autc=atic operation of the safety injection and containment spray systems. A test sig-nal is applied to initiate autc=atic actien and verificatien made that the ecmpenents receive the safety injecticn actuation signals in the proper sequence. The test demonstrates the opera valves, pu=p circuit breakers, and auteratic circuitry.l}*((g)of the During reacter cperatien, the instrumentation which is depended en to initiate safety injection and containment spray is generally checked daily and the initiating circuits are tested menthly.
In addition, the active ccepenents (pumps and valves) are to be tested every threc =cnths to check the cperation of the starting circuits and to verify that the pumps are in satisfactory running order. The test interval of three
=onths is based en the judgement that = ore frequent testing would not significa:itly increase the reliability (i.e., the probability that the cc penent vculd cperate when required), yet = ore frequent testa vould result in increased vear over a 1cng period of ti=e.

Basis The emergency power system provides power requirements for the engineered safety features in the event of a D3A.
Each of the two diesel generators is capable of supplying mini =us required safety feature equipment from independent buses. This redundancy is a factor in establishing testing intervals. The monthly tests specified vill demonstrate operability and load capacity of each diesel generator. The fuel supply and various controls are cen-tinuously menitored and alarmed fer off-ncr=al conditiens. At approximately yearly intervals (durirg refueling shutdevns) autc-
=atic starting en loss of off-site pcver and autc=atic load shed-ding, diesel cennection, and leading vill be verified. At the same intervals, capability vill be verified for manual energency control of these functions from the diesel and svitch-gear rooms.
Considering syste redundancy, the specified testing intervals I
for the station batteries should be adequate to detect and cer-rect any =alfunction before it can result in system =alfunction.
Batteries vill deteriorate with time, but precipitous failure is extremely unlikely. The surveillance specified is that which has been demonstrated over the years to provide an indicatien of a cell becc=ing unserviceable long before it fails.
