Rev. 12 PROGRAM DE1CRIPTION The Inservice Testing (IST) Program for Class 1, 2,

& 3' valves meets the requirements of Subsection IWV of the ASME Section XI Code, 1983 Edition, through the Summer of 1983 Addenda. Where code requirements are determined to be impractical, specific requests for relief are written, referenced, and included with the tables. Additional valve relief. requests may be necessary and these will be identified and submitted during subsequent program revisions. Byron Station received a Safety Evaluation Report (SER) on September 15, 1988 and is listed in Table 2 of NRC Generic Letter 89-04 as a plant with a reviewed IST Program and SER issued.

Per NRC Generic Letter 89-04, the status of relief requests as stated in the SER is unchanged. Any modifications to Byron Station relief requests approved in the SER (VR-1 through VR-17) which are covered by one of the eleven positions discussed in NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, must.be performed in accordance with the guidelines given in the Generic Letter.

Pre-approval is granted for all relief requests submitted which are consistent with the eleven positions given. New relief requests dealing with a position D21 covered by NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, must receive NRC dpproval prior to implementation. The table lists all code Class 1, 2,

& 3 valves which have been assigned a specific code category as directed by Subsection IWV of Section XI.

The table is organized according to operating system and listed in valve number order using P&ID references to further categorize.

The valves subject to ISI testing are those valves which are identified in accordance with the scope of ASME Section XI, subsection IWV-1100:

"This Subsection provides the rules and requirements for inservice testing to assess operational readiness of certain Class 1, 2,

and 3 valves (and their actuating and position indicating systems) in light-water cooled nuclear power plants, which are required to perform a specific function in shutting down a reactor to the cold shutdown condition or in mitigating the consequences of an accident."

Exceptions to this scope are those valves which are exempt, but added to the program based on NRC mandates. These valves are identified in the program notes and relief requests.

After installation and prior to service, all valves identified in this program were tested as required by Subsection IWV-3100 of Section XI of the ASME Code. These tests were conducted under conditions similar to those to be experienced during subsequent inservice tests. When a valve or its control system has been replaced or undergone maintenance that could affect its performance, it will be retested prior to its raturn to service, to demonstrate that all performance parameters are within acceptable limits.

Rev. 12 As required by NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, Position 5, the limiting value of full-stroke time will be based on the valve reference or average stroke time of the valve when it is known to be in good

~

condition and operating properly. This limiting value is based on a reasonable deviation from this reference stroke time based on valve size, valve type, actuator type, system design, dual unit / dual train design,-etc.

The deviation should not be so restrictive that it results in a valve being declared inoperable due to reasonable stroke time variations. However, the deviation used to establish the limit should be such that corrective action would be taken for a valve that may not perform its intended function. New or additional reference values may be required if:

1)

A valve has been replaced, 2)

When a reference value or set of values may have been affected by repair or routine servicing of a valve, or 3)

If it is necessary or desirable for some reason other I

than 1) or 2) above.

NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, Positions 1-3 discuss full stroke, alternatives to full stroke, and backflow testing of check valves, respectively. A valid full stroke test is one in which verification of maximum required accident condition flow through the valve is obtained. The minimum acceptable flow value for a specific valve is determined from Technical Specifications, UFSAR, manufacturers data, engineering calculations, etc. _An alternative to full stroke testing includes, but is not limited to, a sample disassembly and inspection program of valves grouped by similarity of design (manufacturer, size, model number, materials of construction, etc.) and service conditions (including valve orientation)

This sample disassembly and inspection program will be performed during refueling outages. A backflow test verifies that the disc travels to the seat promptly on cessation or reversal of flow, for check valves which perform a safety function in the closed direction, for category 3/C check valves (valves that have a specified leak rate limit and are self-actuated in response to a system characteristic), the backflow test is satisfied by performing the leak-rate test.

i l

Per NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, Position #8, whenever valve i

data is determined to be within the Required Action Range, the valve is inoperable, and the Technical Specification LCO Action Statement time starts.

In the event a valve must be declared inoperable as a result of inservice testing, limitations on plant operations will be as stated in the Technical Specifications.

Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code shall not be construed to supersede the requirements of the Technical Specifications.

STROKE DIRECT.

The stroke direction identifies the direction the valve actuator moves a specific valve stem to place the valve disc in a position to perform its designed safety function (s). Q for open, and g for closed.

This identifies the direction (s) the valve stem will move when tested.

Note: Exercising of a power operated valve will involve stroking the.

I valve to both'its open and closed position.

The valve will only be timed, however, in the direction (s) designated to perform its safety function (s). Therefore, the program plan specifies only the direction (s) in which valves must be stroke' timed.

TEST METHOD 4

The test method column identifies specific tests which will be performed on specific valves to fulfill the requirements of Subsection IWV of ASME Section XI.

The test and abbreviations used are as follows:

U l.

(Bt) Check Valve Back Flow Test The check valve disc will be exercised to the closed position-required to fulfill its safety function by verifying that the disc travels to the seat promptly on cessation or reversal of flow.

2.

(Ct) Check Valve Full Stroke Test The check valve disc will be exercised to the open position required to fulfill its safety function by verifying the maximum required accident flow through the valve or alternatives to full flow testing, per NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, Positions 1 and 2.

3.

(Ft) Fail Safe Test Valves with fail safe actuators will be tested to verify the valve operator moves the valve stem to the required fail safe position upon loss of actuating power, in accordance with IWV-3415.

This will be accomplished during the normal stroking of the valve.

Upon stroking a valve to its fail safe position, the solenoid operator is de-energized causing air to be vented which in turn allows the spring to move the valve to its fail safe position.

This condition simulates loss of actuating power (Electric and/or Air) and hence satisfies the fail safe-test requirements of IWV-3415, 4.

(It) Position Indication Check valves which are identified to require a Position Indication Test will be inspected in accordance with IWV-3300 of ASME Section XI.

5.

(Lt) Seat Leakane Test The seat leakage tests will meet the requirements of IWV-3420 for i

Category A valves.

On these valves, seat leakage is limited to a specific maximum amount in the closed position for fulfillment of their safety function.

(9998D/WPF/021694) 4.3 - page 3 of 5

Rev. 12 6.

JRt) Safety Valve Setnoint Check Safety valve setpoints will be verified in accordance with IWV-3510 of ASME Section XI.

7.

(St) Full Stroke Test Valve exercising tests of Category A and B valves will be performed in accordance with IWV-3410.. The test will include full.

stroke testing to verify operability in the direction required to fulfill the required safety function.

8.

IXt) Part-Stroke Test If only limited operation is practical during plant operation, the valves shall be part-stroke (:Xt) exercised during plant operation and full-stroke exercised during cold shutdowns, in accordance with IWV-3412 or IWV-3522.

M.

TEST MODE Denotes the frequency and plant condition necessary to perform a given test.

The following abbreviations are used:

Normal Ooeration (OP)

J Tests designated "OP" will be performed once every 3 months, except in those modes in which the valve is not required to be operable.

il Semiannual (S)

.l 1

Tests with this designation will be conducted once every 6 months, except in those modes in which the valve is not' required to be operable.

I 1

Cold Shutdown (CS)

Valves that cannot be operated during plant operation shall be full stroke exercised during cold shutdowns. Valve testing will commence within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> after shutdown, with completion of cold shutdown valve testing not being a prerequisite to plant startup, Valve tests which are not completed during a cold shutdown, shall be completed during subsequent cold shutdowns to meet the Code Specified Testing Frequency.

For planned shutdowns, where ample time is available, and testing all'-

the valves identified for cold shutdown test frequency in the IST Program will be accomplished, exceptions to the 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> may be taken.

Rev. 12 NOTE 1 Closure of the Main Steam isolation valves 1MS001A-D or 2MS001A-D during unit operation would result in reactor trip and safety. injection actuation. To avoid this transient, these valves will be partially stroked every'three months.

Full stroke testing will be done during Modes 4, 5, or 6 as plaat conditions allow, per 1WV-3412.

NOTE.2 The testing of any emergency boration flowpath valves during unit operation is not practical.

Stroke testing the Boric Acid injection isolation valve ICV 8104/2CV8104 and check valve 1CV8442/2CV8442, the RH to CV pump suction isolation valve ICV 8804A/2CV8804A, or the RWST to CV pump suction isolation i

valves 1CV112D,E/2CV112D,E, - could result in boration of the RCS, resulting-in a cooldown transient. Aligning the system in this configuration even for a short duration is, therefore, unacceptable. These valves will be stroked tested during cold shutdown, in accordance with IWV-3412.

HQTE 3 These valves are the Main Feedwater isolation valves:

1FWOO9A-D/2FWOO9A-D, and cannot be fully stroked during operation as feedwater would be terminated-causing a reactor trip. They will, however, be partially stoke tested during

operation as well as full stroke tested during cold shutdown, per the requirements of IWV-3412.

NOTE 4 Closure of these letdown and makeup valves 1CV112B,C/2CV112B,C, ICV 8105/2CV8105, ICV 8106/2 CV8106, ICV 8152/2CV8152 and ICV 8160/2CV8160 during j

normal unit operation would cause a loss of charging flow which would result I

in a reactor coolant inventory transient, and possibly, a subsequent reactor trip. These valves will be fully stroke / fail safe exercised during cold

shutdown as required by IWV-3412.

NOTE 5 The 1RH8701A/B, 1RH8702A/B, 2 RH8701A/B, and 2RH8702A/B valves are the isolation boundary between the Residual Heat Removal pumps and the' Reactor Coolant System.

Opening one of these valves during unit operation will_ leave j

only one valve isolating RHR from the high RCS pressure. This would place the

NOTE 11 The Primary Containment Purge Supply and Exhaust Valves IVQ001A/B, IVQ002A/B, 2VQ001A/B, and 2VQ002A/B cannot be stroke timed during unit operation. These 48-inch valves are the only isolation points between the containment atmosphere and the environment. Stroking these valves at any time other than mode 5 or 6 would be a violation of the Byron Technical Specifications. These valves will be full stroke tested during cold shutdown, in accordance with IWV-3412.

These valves will be leak tested semiannually, in accordance with Byron Station Technical Specifications.

The Primary Containment Mini-Purge and Fxhaust Valves IVQ004A/B, IVQ005A/B/C, 2VQ004A/B, and 2VQ005A/B/C, and the Post LOCA Purge Exhaust Valves IVQOO3/2VQOO3 will be leak tested every 3 months, in accordance with Byron Station Technical Specifications.

The 1AF001A/B, 1AF003A/B, and 2AF003A/B valves will be partially stroke tested during operation, and all valves full stroke tested during cold shutdown. This will be performed per Tech Spec 4.7.1.2.2 and is in accordance with 1WV-3522.

NOTE 11 The High Head Injection Isolation Valves ISI8801A/B and 2 SIB 801A/B cannot be stroke tested during unit opezation.

These valves isolate the CV system from the RCS.

Opening them during operation would enable charging flow to pass directly into the RCS, bypassing the regenerative heat exchanger.

The temperature difference of the charging flow and the RCS could result in damaging thermal stresses to the cold leg nozzles as well as cause'a reactivity change which would, in turn, cause a plant transient. These valves-will be full stroke tested during cold shutdown in accordance with IWV-3412.

Rev. 12 NOTE 25 Check valve 1/2SI8926 prevents flow from the Safety Injection (SI) pump suction line to the Refueling Water. Storage Tank (RWST).

The SI pumps are normally lined up in the INJECTION MODE to take suction f rom the RWST.

This check valve would stop reverse flow when the SI pumps are transferred to HOT / COLD LEG RECIRCULATION MODE to prevent contamination of the RWST.

However, the 1/2SI8806 M.O.V.

is in series with this check valve and would be closed to prevent reverse flow as directed by the emergency procedures.

Therefore, no backflow test (:Bt) is required for 1/2SI8926.

NOTE 26 Check valve 1/2CV8546 prevents flow from the Chemical and Volume Control (CV) pump suction line to the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST). The CV pumps are normally lined up in the INJECTION MODE to take suction from the RWST.

This check valve would stop reverse flow when the CV pumps are transferred to HOT / COLD LEG INJECTION MODE to prevent contamination of the RWST.

However, the 1/2CV112D and 1/2CV112E M.O.V.'s are in series with this check valve and would be closed to prevent reverse flow as directed by the emergency procedures. Therefore, no back flow test (Bt) is required for 1/2CV8546.

NOTE 27 Check valves 1/2SI8958A/B prevent flow from the Residual Heat (RH) Removal pump suction line to the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST). The RH pumps are normally lined up in the_ INJECTION MODE to take suction from the RWST.

These check valves would stop reverse flow when the RH pumps are transferred to HOT / COLD LEG RECIRCULATION MODE to prevent contamination of the RWST.

The 1/2SI8812A/B M.O.V 's are in series with these check valves and would be closed to prevent reverse flow as directed by the emergency procedures.

In addition, the RH suction valves 1/2SI8812A/B, 1/2RH8701A/B or 1/2RH8702A/B, and 1/2 SIS 811A/B are electrically interlocked to prevent the backflow to the RWST when the RH system is in a RECIRCULATION MODE.

However, during the injection mode, if a pump fails to start, these values are relied upon to prevent diversionary flow back to the RWST.

NOTE 28 The 1/2CV8440 check valves allow seal water return to the suction of the.CV pumps. During the hot leg recirculation phase of an SI, the VCT. outlet check valve prevents diversionary flow back to'the VCT via the seal water heat exchanger relief valve, which could potentially lead to an unfiltered release of radioactivity to the environment. These valves can only be tested in cold shutdown, when all 4 RCPS and charging pumps are off.

Rev. 12 NOTE 29 Check valve 1/2CV8442 prevents flow from the Chemical and Volume Control.(CV) pump suction header to the boric acid transfer pump. This line is normally isolated by-the 1/2CV8104 emergency boration valve. This valve would only be opened during an emergency with the boric acid transfer pump running. This check valve is unnecessary with the current system operation, and thus, no back flow testing of 1/2CV8442 is required.

Reauirement:

Use of the control board open and closed lights to determine the stroke time of power-operated valves has recently become an issue for liscussion in the industry.

Paragraph IWV-3413 of ASME XI defines

' full-stroke time" as "that time interval from initiation of the actuating signal to the end of the actuating cycle."

It is common industry practice to measure stroke time as the time interval between placing the operator switch on the control board in the "close" or "open" position and indication that the valve is open or closed on the control board (switch to light).

C.

Position:

It is required that the way in which the limit switch that operates the remote position indicator lights is set may result in " closed";or "open" indication before the valve obturator has actually completed its travel, this is not considered to be a problem, as the purpose of the test is to determine if degradation of the valve operator system is occurring, which is determined by observing changes in stroke time relative to the reference stroke time.

Stroke time measurements should be rounded to the nearest tenth (0.1) of a second, except that stroke times less than one half (0.5) second may be rounded to 0.5 second, if appropriate.

Standard rounding techniques are to be used when rounding stop watch readings during valve stroke time testing (e.g.,

10:45 rounds to 10.5 and 10.44 rounds to 10.4).

Recuirement:

Paragraph IWV-3415 of ASME XI states that "When practical, valves with fail-safe actuators shall be tested by observing the operation of the valves upon loss of actuator power."

Most valves with a fail-safe mechanism to stroke the valve to the fail-safe position during normal operation.

For example, an air-operated valve that. fails-closed may use air to open the valve against spring pressure.

When the actuator is placed in the closed position, air is vented from the diaphragm and the spring moves the obturator to the closed position.

C.

Position:

In the cases where normal valve operator action moves the valve to the 4

closed position by de-energizing the operator electrically, by venting air or both (e.g., an electric solenoid in-the air system of a valve operator moves to the vent position on loss of power), no additional fail-safe testing is required. Valves with fail-safe actuators.that do not operate as part of normal actuator operation must be tested by other This may be accomplished for motor-operated valves by opening means.

the circuit breaker supplying operator power and observing.that the valve moves to its fail-safe position. Lifting leads is not required unless it is the only method.of de-energizing the actuator.

Using a valve remote position indicator as verification of proper fail-safe operation is acceptable, provided.the' indicator is periodically verified to be operating properly as required by ASNE Code,Section XI, Subsection IWV, paragraph IWV-3300.

Recuirement:

Paragraph IWV-3522 of Article XI states

" check valves shall be exercised to the position required to fulfill their function unless such operation is not practical during plant operation.

If only limited operation is practical during plant operation, the check valve.shall be part-stroke exercised during plant operation and full-stroke exercised during cold shutdowns." For check valves'with no' external position indication devices, the determination of when they are in full;open position has proven difficult to detennine. The verification of when a valve is in the full open position affects the determination of which valves are only part stroked and thus require additional full-stroke testing during cold shutdown or refuelings.

]

C.

Position 1 Valid full stroke exercising to the full-open or full closed position

-j may be accomplished by observing an external position indicator which is considered to be a positive means of determining obturator position.

Where external position indicators are not provided, manual stroking of-the valve is acceptable.

Where a mechanical exerciser is used, the torque required to move the obturator must be recorded and meet the acceptance standards of subparagraph IWV-3522 (b).

Per the requirements of the NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, Position 1, the other acceptable method of full-stroke exercising a check valve to the open position is to verify that the valve passes the maximum required accident condition flow. Any flow less than this is considered as a part-stroke exercise.

Flow through the valve must be determined by.

positive means such as permanently installed flow instruments, temporary flow instruments, or by measuring the pressure drop across the valve or other in-line component. Measuring total flow through multiple parallel lines does not provide verification of flow through individual valves.

Rev. 12 C.

Position: (continued)

One exception to the " maximum required accident flow requirement is the a

methodology used to verify full-stroke exercising ~of the Safety Injection (SI) Accumulator Back-up Check Valves, 1/2SI8956A-D. Becauce of the high maximum design flowrate of the valves, a maximum design accident flowrate test is physically impossible to perform.

For those valves, an Engineering calculation has been performed to determine the minimum flowrate for full dise lift. An acceptable full stroke exercise of these valves will be performed each refueling outage by measuring the accumulator level decrease over time, converting these parameters to a flowrate through the valve, and verifying this value is greater-than or equal to the engineering calculated minimum flowrate for full disc' lift.

This method is superior to sample disassembly and inspection of one valve per outage which would require unusual system line-ups, freeze seals, radiation exposure, and possible plant transients.

Other alternatives to measuring full design accident flow or disassembly an6 inspection of check valves to satisfy full stroke requirements is allowed as long as the requirements of NRC Generic Letter 89-04,,

Positions 1, 2,

and 3 are utilized QR specific relief requests are approved by the NRC.

Stroking a valve to the full closed position for valves without a manual exerciser or position indicator must be verified using indirect means.

These include, but are not limited to, (1) observing pressure indications on both sidas of the valve to determine if the differential pressure expected with the valve shut is obtained, or (2) opening a drain connection on the upstream side cf the valve to detect leakage rates in excess of that expected with the valve. shut.

valves that cannot be full-stroke tested or where full-stroking cannot be verified, shall be disassembled, inspected, and manually exercised.

Valves that require disassembly for full-stroke testing during cold shutdowns or refueling still require quarterly part-stroke testing, where possible.

Testing of check valves by disassembly.shall-comply with the following:

a.

During valve testing by disassembly, the valve internals ~

j shall'be visually inspected for worn or corroded parts, and-the valve disk shall be manually exercised, b.

Due to the scope of this testing, the personnel hazards I

involved, and system operating restrictions,' valve disassembly and-inspection may be performed during reactor refueling outages.

Since this frequency differs from.the

' Code required f requency, this deviation must be specifically.

Rev. 12 c.

Where it is burdensome to disassemble and inspect all applicable. valves each refueling outage, a sample-disassembly and inspection plant for groups of identical I

valves in similar applications may be employed. The NRC Generic Letter 89-04 guidelines for this plan are explained below:

The sample disassembly and inspaction program involves grouping similar valves and te9 ting one valve in each group during each refueling outage. The sampling technique requires that-each valve in the group be the same design (manafacturer, size, model number, and materials of construction) and have the same service conditions including valve orientation.

Additionally, at'each disassembly the licensee must verify that the disassembled valve is capable of full-stroking and that the internals of the valve are structurally sound (no loose or corroded parts). Also, if the disassembly is to verify the full-stroke capability of the. valve, the disk should be manually exercised.

A different valve of each group is required to be disassembled, inspected, and manually full-stroke exercised at each successive refueling outage, until the entire group has been tested.

If the disassembled valve is not capable of being full-stroke exercised or there is binding or failure of valve internals, the remaining valves in that group must also be disassembled, inspected, and manually full-stroke exercised during the same outage. 'Once this is. completed, the sequence of disassembly must be repeated unless extension of the interval can be justified.

Extending the valve sample disassembly and inspection-interval from dinassembly of one valve in the group every refueling outage or expanding the group size would increase the time between testing of any particular valve.in'the group. With four valves in a group and an 18-month reactor cycle, each valve would be disassembled-and inspected every six years.

If the fuel cycle is increased to 24 months,-

each valve in a four-valve sample group would be disassembled and inspected only once every eight years.

Position: (continued)

Extension of the valve disassembly / inspection interval from-that allowed by the Code (quarterly or cold shutdown frequency) to longer than once every 6 years is a substantial change which may not be justified by the valve failure. rate data for all valve groupings.

When disassembly / inspection data for a valve. group show a greater than 25% failure rate, the ststion should determine whether group show a greater than 25% failure rate, the station should determine whether the group size should be decreased or whether more valves from the group should be disassembled during every refueling outage.

Extensions of the group size will be.done on a' case by case basis.

Reauirement:

The IST program originally assigned a limiting value of full-stroke time based on the most conservative value from plant Technical Specifications i

(TS) or Updated Final Safety Analysis-Report (UFSAR).

For valves not having a specified value of full-stroke, a limiting value was assigned based on manufacturers design input,. engineering input, or initial valve preoperational testing.

This methodology is contrary to NRC' Generic Letter 89-04.

According to NRC Generic Letter 89-04 the' limiting value of full-stroke should be based on an average reference stroke time of a valve when it is known to be operating properly.

The. limiting value should be a reasonable deviation from this reference stroke time. based on the valve size, valve type, and actuator type. The deviation should not be so restrictive that it results in a valve being declared' inoperable due to reasonable stroke time variations. However, the deviation used to establish the limit should be such that corrective action would be taken for a valve that may not perform its intended. function.

When the calculated limiting value for a full-stroke is greater than a TS or safety analysis limit the TS or safety analysis limit should be used as the limiting value of full-stroke. time.

Based on this,'a review of each valve operating history was performed and an average / reference value of full-stroke determined.

In addition, valves were grouped together by system, train, unit, valve type, and actuator type to provide for a more thorough review in determining what would be a " reasonable" deviation from the average / reference full-stroke value.

Feauirement:

(continued)

The 1983 Edition through Summer 1983 Addenda of ASME Section XI does not provide. guidance for determining values of full-stroke. However, it' does provide requirements for when to. start monitoring a valves performance on a more frequent basis, also known as alert range testing.

If a valve strokes in 10 seconds or less, a 50% increase over the previous value requires it to be put on a monthly test frequency, and for valves stroking in greater than 10 seconds, a 25% increase over the-previous value requires it to be put on a monthly test frequency (see VR-20).

Trending stroke times, based on the percent change from.

the previous test, as ASME Section XI requires, allows gradual.

degradation to occur over a long period of time without triggering the additional trending attention that increased testing frequency requires.

Therefore, an improved method of component performance monitoring is employed which requires a valve to be placed on increased test frequency based on the percent change from the fixed reference value established' via NRC Generic Letter 89-04, Attachment 1, Position 5.

This criteria, in conjunction with establishing reference / average values of full-stroke, should allow for reasonable deviations in stroke time _

measurements without declaring a valve inoperable. The corrective actions specified in IWV-3417 (b) of Section XI and as described in IST Program Relief Request VR-20 will be taken when a valve exceeds its limiting value of full stroke.

C.

Position:

The following criteria will be used as general guidance to establish ALERT and REQUIRED ACTION ranges for power-operated valves:

SOV's/HOV's/AOV's - Less than or eaual to 10 seconds:

ALERT RANGE:

(1.50) (Tref) - (2.0) (Tref)

REQUIRED ACTION VALUE:

> (2.0) (Tref)

MOV's - Less than or eaual'to 10 seconds:

ALERT RANGE:

(1.25) (Tref) - (1.50) (Tref}

REQUIRED ACTION VALUE:

> II.50) (Tref)

MOV's/SOV's/HOV's/AOV's - Greater than 10 second.gi See VR-20; this technical approach and position will not be put into application until relief request VR-20 is approved.

.=

Rev. 12 NOTES:

1.

Tref is the reference or average stroke value in seconds of an individual valve or valve grouping established when the valve is known to be operating acceptable.

2.

Standard rounding techniques are to be used when rounding off stopwatch readings during valve stroke timing (e.g. 10.45 rounds to 10.5, and 10.44 is rounded to 10.4 seconds).

Round-off all i

measured stroke time to the nearest tenth of a second.

3.

When reference stroke values or average stroke values are affected by other parameters or conditions, then these parameters or conditions must be analyzed and the above-factors adjusted.

4.

If the above calculated values exceed a Technical Specification or FSAR value, then the TS or FSAR must be used for the limiting value of full-stroke.

5.

Fast acting valves (vales which normally stroke in less than 2 seconds consistently).are included in Relief Request.VR-12.

These valves are HQI assigned ALERT RANGES and are HQI trended.

6.

The above criteria is a guide and cannot cover all valves. The ALERT RANGES and REQUIRED ACTION VALUES are selected based on comparison between the REFERENCE VALUE, LIMITING VALUE given'in Technical Specifications /UFSAR, operating history, and calculated values using the above criteria.

7.

Valves which serve the same function on dual trains (i.e.,

ICC9473A and 1CC9473B) and dual units (i.e. ICC9473A and 2CC9473A) are assigned the same REQUIRED ACTION / ALERT RANGE VALUES based on human factors considerations, unless valve or system design differences exist between the trains / units.

Rev. 12 C.

Position:

These manual valves are used to provide for train separation and/or isolation of the Component Cooling Water System.

They are aligned to place the U-0 Heat Exchanger and pump on the U-1 or U-2 side of CCW to ensure adequate cooling during Shutdowns and/or Post-Accident.

Stroking these valves quarterly or during U 1 cold shutdowns would be a considerable burden and potential safety concern. The CC system is a delicately balanced system that has the potential for becoming upset upon swapping the Unit 0 Heat Exchanger and pump from one unit to the other. History has shown that stroking these valves will cause oscillations in the lines, disrupt flow balancing due to D/P differences throughout the system, and would place the normal loads at risk for adequate cooling. For instance, the CC685 valve, which is the Reactor Coolant Pump thermal barrier Component Cooling Water return valve, auto-closes on high flow, which would result ^in a loss of flow to the RCP thermal barriers.

This valve could potentially close during the CC stroke tests due to the upset flow conditions.

In addition, the CC surge tanks will be at risk of draining, resulting in possible pump trips on low-low level.

The potential problems would only be compounded by stroking these valves during a U-1 cold shutdown since the U-0 heat exchanger and pump will be in use on the U-1 train. Fence, Byron considers it impractical to perform this testing quarterly or during a U-1 cold shutdown.

UFSAR " active valve" table 3.9.16 does not list these valves as

" active" and Section 9.2.2.4 gives justification that these valves are not required in the short term following an accident. Al t.o, the UFSAR states that if there was a single failure of a valve in the long term, making it undesirable to use a particular pump and heat exchanger, sufficient cooling would be provided with a different subsystem. Hence,-

l testing these valves is conservative on Byron's part, and quarterly testing is less significant than in other cases due to the design of the system.

Rev. 12 C.

Position (continued)-

A minimum eighteen month frequency will reduce the likelihood os a CC system malfunction caused by stroking these manual valves.

In addition, a review of maintenance history dating back to 1983, shows there has been no evidence of valve exercising malfunctions from that time to the i

present. These valves are normally aligned such that the U-0 CC heat exchanger and pump are on the U-1 side.

The valves normally stay in this position until U-2 is shutdown and put on RHR cooldown.

When this is done, the U-0 heat exchanger and pump are aligned to U-2, which includes stroking open the 2CC9459B and 2CC9467B valves, and closing the U-1 respective valves.

Following the U-2 Cold Shutdown or Refueling Outage, the lineup will be re-set to the original lineup which involves stroking the CC9459B and CC9467B valves in the opposite direction than before the shutdown. This would complete the necessary stroking of the manual valves listed. Since these valves are not often manipulated, they experience minimal wear and a minimum eighteen month stroke frequency should be sufficient to detect a problem.

These manual valves will be stroke exercised in one direction prior to each U 2' Cold Shutdown, or a minimum of once every 18 months during a U-2 Refueling Outage. This is when the U-0 heat exchanger and pump are normally swapped to U-2.

The CC9467B and CC9459B valves will be stroked in the opposite direction when the U-0 heat exchanger and pump are re-aligned to the U-1 side following the U-2 Cold Shutdown or Refueling Outage. The testing will occur under carefully controlled conditions to minimize the consequences of exercising these valves.

Recuirement:

Per IWV-3417 (a), if, for power operated valves, an increase in stroke time of 25% or more from the previous test for valves with full-stroke times greater than 10 seconds, or 50% or more for valves with full-stroke times less than or equal to 10 seconds is observed, test frequency shall be increased to once each month until corrective action is taken, at which time the original test frequency shall be resumed.

In any case, any abnormality or erratic action shall be reported.

C.

Position:

The Code requirement for increased frequency testing is based.on a comparison between the current stroke time and the previous stroke time.

Depending on the stroke duration and the percentage increase, monthly testing may be required. This approach, if not checked by trending, allows for the threshold for more frequent testing to slowly creep up over time.

For example, an increase of 10% at each quarterly test could take place over a period of one year without any action being required.

This variable limit is also difficult to administer because the limit is not a permanent entry in the test procedure.

A more appropriate method to be used should be based on an empirically derived fixed limit using. valve operating history, valve condition and comparison with other valves of similar design (valve size,-valve type, and actuator type). This allows for a more thorough review in determining what the " reasonable deviation" from the average / reference stroke value should be for an individual or group of valves (Seo VR-20 and VA 4).

For those valves that are identified for stroke testing in cold shutdown or refueling only, these valves cannot be placed on a monthly testing frequency for the reasons already presented in the valve test program.

Since the Code does not provide any direction for these frequencies of test, it is unclear if these valves are even to be included in the context of IWV-3417 (a).

C.

Position:

(continued)

For all power operated valves which normally strc~e in greater than two seconds, an alert range will be established based on reaching a given percent increase from the reference average value. The maximum limiting value of full stroke is established per Technical Approach and Position, VA-04 and Relief Request VR-20.

The reference value used to determine the alert range will be reconfirmed following maintenance activities that could affect valve stroke time, or a new limit will be established based on the new stroke time.

For valves that can only be stroke timed in cold shutdown or refueling, once the valve (s) enter the alert range, they will be retested.

If the retest is acceptable, then an evaluation will be performed to determine the cause.

If the retest is unacceptable, then the valve will be declared inoperable until corrective actions are taken or an evaluation is completed justifying continued operability.

For valves that are stroke timed quarterly, when the alert range is exceeded, the valve will be immediately retested.

If the retest is acceptable, then an evaluation will document this deviation.

If the retest is unacceptable, the valve will be placed on a monthly testing frequency until corrective action is taken or an evaluation is completed, justifying continued operability providing the limiting valve or full stroke is not exceeded.

Using fixed alert ranges based on the reference value established when a valve is known to be operating acceptably will ensure that gradual valve performance degradation is monitored and evaluated, by placing the valve on an increased testing frequency when the stroke time exceeds a fixed multiple of the reference value. This method is superior to that I

required by the Code in that the point of reference used to evaluate the performance trend on a valve remains fixed. The alternate test method uses the same percentage increase as the Code, except that it is applied to the reference value.

Performing an engineering evaluation / investigation when a cold shutdown / refueling valve enters the alert range, providing the retest is acceptable, is adequate to monitor the valve for degradation.

This position will be gradually incorporated to support Byron's ten year update in 1995.

Justification:

(continued)

The alternate test frequency is justifiable in that maintenance history and previous inspections of these valves at Byron and Braidwood stations has shown no evidence of degradation or physical impairment (this is to be expected since the valves see very limited operation).

Industry experience, as documented in NPRDS, showed no history-of problems with these valves. A company wide check valve evaluation addressing the "EPRI Applications guidelines for Check Valves in Nuclear Power Plants" revealed that the location, orientation and application of these valves are not conducive to the type of wear or degradation correlated with SOER 86-03 type problems, but these valves still require some level of monitoring to detect hidden problems.

The wafer type design of the valve body for these valves make their removal a simple process, with little chance of damage to their internals. Also, there is no disassembly of internal parts required; all wear surfaces are accessible by visual examination. After inspection and stroke testing, the valve is reinstalled into the line and post maintenance testing is performed. The valve inspection procedure requires post-inspection visual examination of the check valve to insure that the pin is oriented properly and that the flow direction is correct.

The alternate test method is sufficient to insure operability of these valves and is consistent with Generic Letter 89-04.

Exercise check valves to the position required to fulfill their function-(CT/Open; BT/ Closed) quarterly, unless such operation is not practical during plant operation per IWV-3521, or exercise during cold shutdown per IWV-3522, 5.

Basis for Relief:

These check valves in the spray additive system (CS) cannot be stroked without introducing NaOH into the CS system, unless the piping between the NaOH storage tank and the injection isolation valves, 1/2CS021A/B, is drained into containers. This amounts to almost two 55 gallon drums of potentially (radioactive / toxic) mixed waste that requires either recycling or disposal. Then, primary water is connected to the CS system via special test connections and is used to flow test the.line to ensure that the proper Technical Specification eductor flow rate can be passed.

The problem with disposal stems from the caustic being slightly contaminated, as well as having a high pH.

Recycling (pouring the contents of the drums back into the NaOH tank)' is not always a viable option either, considering the caustic has been contained in a stagnant line (up to five years) and may not meet chemistry requirements.

Thus, storage of hazardous mixed waste can become very costly. This is due to the non-existence of commercial disposal facilities for mixed waste, which means that any mixed waste generated would have to be stored on-f site. Also, the draining and handling of this highly caustic material l

poses a significant hazard to personnel, and can result in. loss'of eye j

sight and/or chemical burns, if splashed or spilled.

1 5.

Basis for Relief:

These valves cannot be full flow tested as a matter of course during unit operation or cold' shutdown as water from the CS pumps would be' discharged through the CS ring headers causing undesirable effects on system components inside containment.

Additionally, the full flow testing of these check valves during periods' of cold shutdown, using the CS pumps, would fill the reactor refueling cavity with contaminated water from the refueling water storage tank.-

The filling of the cavity, via temporarily installed large bore piping, would require the removal of the reactor. vessel head so as to preclude equipment damage from borated water.

The erection of temporary piping' from the CS line to the reactor cavity would take an estimated nine to twelve shifts, or longer compared to one to two shifts for valve inspection.

This estimate does not take into account the time. required to drain and remove the piping from containment.

5.

Basis for Relief:

(continued)

Currently, full flow recirculation flow paths do not exist from the discharge of the CS pumps through these check valves to the refueling water storage tank.

The addition of such flow paths would require extensive plant modifications to existing plant designs, including penetration of containment integrity.

Partial stroking of the 1/2CS008A, B valves using air does not provide adequate assurance of valve operability and may be detrimental for the following reasons:

a.

There is no correlation between air flow and angle of disc movement.

b.

Venting and draining the appropriate piping quarterly may cause deposition of boric acid residue which could in turn promorc binding of the check valve internals.

6 Alternate Testino:

The A and B train valves are of the same design (manufacturer, size, model number, and materials construction) and have the same service conditions, including orientation, therefore they form a sample disassembly group.

Justification:

The 1/2CS008A,B and 1/2CS003A,B valves are removed from the system and visually examined per the strict detailed inspection requirements of the Station Check Valve Program. This inspection adequately verifies that the valves are maintained in a state of operational readiness. The valves are verified to be functional by performing a thorough visual inspection of the valve internals and by performing a full stroke-test exercise of each disc.

Previous inspections of these particular. valves at both Byron and Braidwood have repeatedly shown them to be in good condition.

The wafer type design of the valve body for these valves make their removal a simple process, with little chance of damage to their internals. Also, there is no disassembly of internal parts required; all wear surfaces are accessible by visual examination. After

inspection and stroke testing, the valve is reinstalled into the line and post maintenance testing is performed.

The 1/2CS008A, B valves receive a containment leakage test, and the 1/2CS003A, B valves are partial flow tested. These tests verify proper installation of the check valves, and the valve inspection procedure requires post-inspection visual examination of the check valve to insure that the pin is oriented properly and that the flow direction is correct.

The alternate test frequency is justifiable in that maintenance history and previous inspections of these valves at Byron and Braidwood stations has shown no evidence of degradation or impairment.

Basis for Relief:

The 1/2SI8956A-D check valves are located inside the containment building missile barrier on the-lines from the accumulator tanks to the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) cold legs.

These 8 check valves have safety functions in both the open and closed directions:

1/2SI8956A-D Closed The 1/2SI8956A-D check valves' safety function in the closed direction is to maintain the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary (RCPB).

Open The 1/2SI8956A-D check valves' safety function in the open direction is to permit the injection of borated water into the reactor vessel cold legs during the passive injection ~

l phase of a safety injection.

Check valves 1/2SI8956A-D'cannot be-tested during unit operation due to the pressure differential between the accumulators (650 psig)~ and the reactor coolant system (2235 psig).

Full stroke exercising of these valves could occur only with a rapid depressurization of the reactor coolant system.

These check valves will be full stroke exercised (CT) during refueling outages when the accumulators are discharged into the reactor vessel.

7.

Justification:

These eight valves are part of the Passive Injection subsystem portion of the safety injection system.

This subsystem is designed to inject borated water into the reactor cold legs only after Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure has decreased below the accumulator nitrogen' gas pressure. Under normal plant conditions the RCS system pressure is 2235 psig and the accumulator pressure is 650 psig. Therefore, it is not possible to full stroke these valves unless there is rapid depressurization of the Reactor Coolant System.

Full stroke testing (CT) of these valves during operation or at cold shutdown would require depressurization of the RCS.

Additionally, full stroking these valves during cold shutdowns, routine or forced, would impose hardship with no compensating increase in plant safety.

To perform this test, the reactor coolant system (RCS) must be at approximately 40 psi with all 4 reactor purps (RCPs) off and accumulator pressure at 100 psi over RCS pressure. The RCS boron concentration is low compared to the 2000 ppm concentration of the accumulators.

This injection test requires that approximately 8 thousand gallons of this boron concentrated water be injected into the RCS.

This would result in a considerable increase in the boron concentration of the RCS.

The feed and bleed process required to restore desired RCS boron concentration would result in considerable increases in restoration time and in amounts of radioactive water rejected from the site.

Closed The safety function in the closed direction is to provide a leak-tight barrier between the containment atmosphere and the environment during accident conditions.

These valves cannot be tested during unit operation as seal flow from the reactor coolant pumps is required at all times while the pumps are in operation.

Failure of one of these valves in'the closed position during an exercise test.would result in an abnormal seal water return flow being diverted to the Pressurizer Relief Tank (PRT) by lifting a relief' valve (1/2CV8121) upstream sf the isolation valves.

b.

Their safety function in the closed direction is to maintain the integrity of the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary and to provide a leak-tight barrier between the containment atmosphere and the environment during accident conditions.

Open The safety function of these valves in thelopen direction is to relieve any pressure that may buildup between containment isolation valves 1/2CV8100 and 1/2CV8112.

a.

Air operator valves: 1/2IA065 and 1/2IA066 The full stroke exercising of the 1/2IA065 and 1/2IA066 Instrument Air containment isolation valves during unit power operations.or cold shutdowns, would introduce the possibility of major operating perturbations and/or. personnel safety concerns should these valves fail to re-open during testing activities.

The failure of these valves in the closed position, as a result of testing activities during plant operation or cold shutdown, would subsequently isolate the air operated instruments inside the containment building thus resulting in scenarios such as:

1.

Loss of Pressurizer Pressure Control -

The pressurizer spray valves 1/2RY455B & C and the pressurizer auxiliary spray valve 1/2CV8145 would fail

-l closed and not be available for pressurizer pressure control.

=..

Rev. 12 EELIEF REOUEST VR-10 (continuedl 2.

Loss of Chemical Volume Control System Letdown Flow (both normal and excess) and Charging Flow -

4 The loss of instrument air would cause a disruption in the unit letdown flow paths resulting in pressurizer level' increases. Such valves as the letdown orifice containment outlet header isolation valve 1/2CV8160, the letdown line isolation valves 1/2CV459 and 1/2CV460,- the letdown orifice outlet isolation valves 1/2CV8149A, B & C, the excess letdown heat exchanger inlet isolation valves 1/2CV8153A &

B, and the regenerative heat exchanger letdown inlet isolation valves 1/2CV8389A & B would go to their fail-closed positions. Additionally, the ability to normally make up reactor coolant inventory and adjust the reactor chemical shim (i.e. normal boration/ dilution) would also be lost as the regenerative heat exchanger inlet isolation valves 1/2CV8324A & B would fail to their respective closed positions.

3.

Loss of Component Cooling to Containment Penetrations -

The loss of instrument air supply would cause the penetration cooling supply flow control valve 1/2CC053.to go to its fail closed position. The loss of penetration cooling would result in elevated' temperatures.being imposed on the penetrations being supported by the component cooling system.

4.

Loss of Personnel Breathing Air.

The loss of Instrument Air supply to the Service Air downstream isolation valve 1/2SA033 would cause this valve to go to its fail close position.

This loss of Service Air in the containment building would eliminate the normal source of supplied breathing air needed to support numerous maintenance and component inspection activities in a contaminated environment, b.

Check valves:

1/2IA091 Check valves 1/2IA091 provide the air supply to maintain the 1/2IA066 valves in the open position. Testing of the 1/2IA091 valves in the closed position would force the 1/2IA066 valves to' their fail closed position, by design, causing loss of instrument air to containment. Loss of Instrument' Air would result in scenarios such as those previously listed.

Verification, by trending of power operated valve times, that'an increase in stroke time of 50% or more, from the previous. test, does not-occur, per IWV-3417 (a) 5.

Basis for Relief:

Minor timing inaccuracies, with small stroke times can lead to substantial increases (percent wise) in stroke times.

For example, a

~

valve with a stroke time of 1 second in an initial test,:and 1.6 seconds in the subsequent test, has experienced an apparent 60% increase in stroke time.

If the accuracy requirements of IWV-3413 (b) are utilized, it could be argued that stroke times between 1 and 2 seconds could constitute as much as a 100% increase in stroke. time when, in fact,.only a 0.2 second increase occurred.

For instance, if the initial time was 1.4 seconds, (measured to the nearest second is 1,0 second) ' and'If the next time is then 1.6 seconds, (measured to the nearest second is 2.0 seconds) the percent increase is 100%.

No trending of stroke time will be required, and upon exceeding 2 seconds, corrective action shall be taken-immediately in accordance with IWV-3417 (b).

ASME Code Section XI Recuirements:

These valves are not within the scope of ASME Code,Section XI, Subsection IWV requirements. However, the requirements for stroke timing and trending of the. valves associated with the Diesel Air Start System are being mandated by the NRC as an augmented testing requirement pursuant to 10CFR50.55 (a) (g).

Therefore, valves associated with the Diesel Air Start System shall be exercised to the position required to fulfill their function during plant operation per IWV-3412 and IWV-3522.

Additionally, the stroke'-

testing.of power operated valves shall be measured to the nearest second-and such stroke times trended to document continued valve operational readiness per IWV-3413 (b) and IWV-3417.

Rasis for Relief:

y I

The monthly Diesel Generator testing program, outlined in Byron Station's Technical Specifications and implemented by station operating procedures, exceeds the intent of the quarterly valve testing program which would be required by ASME Code,.Section XI.

Additionally, the stroke timing of solenoid operated valves associated with the Diesel Air Start System is impractical due to the fact actuation of these valves.

6.

Alj;,,ernate Testing 1 The performance of Byron Station's Diesel Generator operability monthly surveillance will verify the operational readiness of the valves associated with the Diesel Air Start System.

This surveillance testing will require the recording of the air pressures contained in both trains A & B of the Diesel' Generator Air Start Receiver Tanks both before and immediately after diesel generator start.

By the comparison of these valves between trains, the satisfactory 4

operation of the power operated and self-actuated check valves

associated with the Diesel Air Start System can be adequately' demonstrated.

Justification:

Proper valve operation will be demonstrated on a monthly basis by the verification of diesel generator air start capability.

Such verification will compare the air pressures contained in the receiver tanks both before and after the diesel generator start, thus verifying

ASME Code,Section XI Recuirements:

Check valves that cannot be exercised during plant operation shall be specifically identified by the owner and shall be full stroke exercised during cold shutdowns per IWV-3412 and IWV-3522.

5.

Basis for Relief:

The full stroke exercising of check valves not stroked quarterly is required to be performed during cold shutdowns.

However, the stroking' of check valves 1/2SI8815, 1/2SI8900A-D, 1/2SI8949A-D,-and 1/2SI8841A, B, associated with Emergency Core Cooling System, during cold shutdowns will induce thermal stresses on their respective reactor vessel nozzles as the Reactor Coolant System (maintained approximately 180*F) is injected with water from the Refueling Water Storage Tank (maintained approximately 65'F.

This also applies to the stroking of check valves 1/2CV8546 and 1/2CV8481A,B because the full stroke of these check valves causes stroking of 1/2SI8815 and 1/2SI8900A-D located in the full flow path.

Additionally, Byron Station Technical Specifications require all Safety.

Injection Pumps and all but one Charging Pump to be inoperable during Modes 4, 5, and 6, except when the reactor vessel head is removed. This requirement minimizes the possibility of low temperature over-pressurization of the Reactor Coolant System. Therefore, check valves 1/2SI8819A-D, 1/2SI8905A-D, and 1/2SI8949A-D, cannot be full stroke exercised during routine Mode 5' cold shutdowns as required by IWV-3412 and IWV-3522 In addition to the stroke test exercise used to verify operational readiness of these check valves, the act of such stroking cause the necessity for Technical Specification required leak rate testing of these valves prior to unit criticality. This testing, in conjunction with the stroke exercising of these check valves, adds approximately one week to the duration of any outage and additional radiation exposure to workers who must connect flowmeters and differential pressure gauges:

I directly to pipes containing radioactive fluids.

Byron Station's Technical Specifications require routine leak rate testing to be performed on these Reactor Coolant System Boundary Isolation check valves if the unit is in Cold Shutdown for greater than 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> and such leak rate testing has not been performed within the previous nine months. Therefore, Byron Station will stroke exercise check valves 1/2SI8815, 1/2SI8900A-D, andz1/2SI8841A,'B on the same l

schedule. To prevent unnecessary stroking of check valves 1/2 SIB 815 and 1/2SI8900A D. check valves 1/2CV8546~and 1/2CV8481A, B will be stroke exercised on the same schedule as check valves 1/2SI8815, 1/2SI8900A-D and 1/2SI8841A, B.

Additionally, stroke exercising of check valves 1/2 SIB 819A-D, 1/2SI8949A-D, and 1/2SI8905A-D can'only be safely performed in Mode 6 with the Reactor Vessel head removed.

Full. stroke exercising of these check valves will be performed at a minimum frequency of once each refueling outage.

Safety Function 1/2SI8P3; Open This valve is in the line from the Chemical and Volume Control (CV) Centrifugal Charging pump.

m Rev. 12 DRAFT REREF REOUEST VR-15_A (continued) l 1/2CV8481A,B Open These check valves are located at'the discharge of the Chemical and Volume Control charging pump. 'Their function is to prevent reverse flow from the charging header when the pump is not in operation. The safety function in the open position is to permit flow of coolant during a safety injection.

Basis The full stroke exercising of check valves.1/2SI8815 and 1/2SI8900A-D associated with the Emergency Core Cooling System during-operation would induce thermal stresses on their respective reactor vessel nozzles as the Reac;cr Coolant System (maintained at greater than 500

The 1/2CV8481A,B and 1/2CV8546 check valves are in series and cannot be full stroke exercised without causing stroking of 1/2 SIB 815 and 1/2SI8900A-D.

These valves cannot be exercised during cold shutdowns without increasing the possibility of low temperature over-pressurization (LTOP) of the Reactor Coolant System. The Byron Station Technical specifications require that all Safety Injection Pumps and.all but one l

Charging Pump be inoperable during Modes 4, 5 and 6, except when the reactor vessel head is removed to prevent this over-pressurization occurring while at low temperatures. 'In addition, injecting large quantities of highly borated water from the RWST would likely; delay

_RELIEl.REOUEST VR-154 (continued)

The 1/2SI8900A-D and 1/2SI8815 check valves can only be verified closed by performance of an individual leakage' test on each valve. These valves are simple lift check. valves and are not equipped with an-external operator or disk position indication.

It is impractical to verify them closed during power operation or during cold shutdowns.

System reconfiguration'and connecting and disconnecting leak testing equipment during cold shutdowns would likely delay the return to power.

This would be costly and burdensome to the station.

System redesign and modification would be necessary to allow testing these valves closed quarterly, which would also be costly and burdensome. Both of these alternatives would provide no compensating increase in plant safety.

6.

Alternate Testing 1 Byron Station will full stroke exercise (open--Ct; close--Bt) the 1/2 SIB 815 and 1/2SI8900A-D on a refueling frequency test schedule.

These valves are verified closed in conjunction with the Technical Specification pressure isolation valve leakage test.

Check valves 1/2CV8481A, B; 1/2CV8546 cannot be full stroke exercised without causing stroking of 1/2SI8815 and 1/2SI8900A-D, therefore they will be full stroke exercised on the same schedule (refueling frequency) as the 1/2SI8815 and 1/2SI8900A-D valves.

7.

Jystification Based on the guidance provided in question 24 of the "Public Meeting notes on Generic Letter 89 04":

check valves possessing safety functions in both the open and closed direction should be stroked to the open position and then tested in the closed position.

For the 1/2 SIB 815 and 1/2SI8900A-D valves, it is best to perform the backflow - (Bt) test, which in this case is accomplished in conjunction with the leakage test (Lt), on the same frequency as the full flow (Ct) test, thus stroking them to their open position and then testing in their closed position.

Check valves 1/2CV8481A, B and 1/2CV8546 cannot be full stroke exercised without causing stroking of 1/2SI8815 and 1/2SI8900A-D because of the system configuration. Therefore, 1/2CV8481A/B will be full flow (Ct) and backflow (Bt) tested in conjunction with the 1/2SI8815 and 1/2SI8900A-D full flow test (B train backflow tested during A train full flow and vice versa). The 1/2CV8546 will also be full flow (Ct) - tested in conjunction with the full flow test of the 1/2SI8815 and 1/2SI8900s.

Safety Function 1/RHB705A, B Open These valves are located on the 3/4" branch line between the 1/2RH8701A, B and 1/2RHB702A, B RH suction isolation valves.

Their safety function in the open direction is to relieve excess pressure due to thermal expansion back to the RCS when both suction isolation valves are closed in order to prevent over pressurization of the piping.

Closed The safety function of these valves in the closed direction' j

is to maintain the integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.

Alternate Testino:

The 1/2RH8705A/B check valves will be operability tested in the open-direction by verifying that the piping between the suction isolation.

valves is able to be depressurized through the applicable valve. The PIV leakage test will be used to verify valve closure and seat tightness. Both of these (Ct-open, Bt-closed) tests will be perfonmed at each reactor refueling outage.

7.

Justification Performing the exercise test requires placing the standby train of residual heat removal (RHR) in an inoperable condition and that the RCS be depressurized (requires all four reactor coolant pumps to be stopped).

This will delay reactor start up and return to power.

In addition, taking away the back/ redundant train of RHR reduces both'the

[

plant decay removal capability and the available safety margin regarding shutdown risk assessment.

Furthermore, these valves are also given.

specific exemption from being leakage tested (no closure test required) following flow through the suction isolations per Technical Specifications (regarding PIV testing).

This alternate test frequency is adequate to maintain this portion of RHR in a state of operational readiness,-while not sacrificing the safety of the plant, or causing undue hardship in returning to power with no compensated increase in' safety.

Closed The closed safety function of these valves is to maintain the reactor coolant pressure boundary.

These valves cannot be full stroke exercised during operation or during_

routine Mode 5 cold shutdowns due to Byron Station Technical Specifications requirement that all Safety Injection Pumps and all but one Charging Pump be inoperable during modes 4, 5,'and 6 (temperature less then - 350' F), except when the reactor vessel head is removed (the reactor head is only removed during refueling outages). This requirement minimizes the possibility of low temperature over--

pressurizatien (LTOP) of the Reactor Coolant System (RCS).

6, Alternate Testino:

Full stroke exercising of these valves can only be safely performed in Mode 6 with the Reactor vessel head removed. Therefore, full stroke exercising and backflow testing of these valves will be performed at each. refueling outage.

Eg{ety Function (continued)

Basis The full stroke exercising of check valves 1/2 SIB 841A,B and 1/2SI8949A,C, associated with the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS)-

and the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) System cannot be accomplished'during normal reactor operation because of the low head developed by the RHR pumps (less than 250 psi) is not great enough to-inject water into the RCS (2235 psi).

In addition, the SI Pumps cannot be used to full stroke the 1/2SI8949A,C check valves at power due to:

(1) the high thermal stresses imposed on the reactor vessel nozzles, (2) the margin of safety is reduced for brittle fracture prevention, and (3) an unacceptable reactivity excursion would be created (high boron concentration and low temperature-water).

Exercising these check valves in cold shutdowns is not practical, full or partial, because they are required by Technical Specifications to be leak tested if there has been flow through them.

This leak rate testing will cause a delay in returning the plant to power.

Flow testing and the resultant leak rate testing would cause unnecessary radiation exposure to test personnel.

6.

Alternate Testino:

j These check valves will be exercised-(CT-open), Bt-closed) during each refueling outage and is consistent with_AMSE/ ANSI Part 10, 4.3.2.2 regarding deferral of check valve exercising until refueling outages, which was approved in rulemaking to 10CFR 50.55a effective September 8, 1992.

Justification:

Based on the guidance provided in question 24 of the "Public Meeting notes on Generic Letter 89-04":

" Check valves possessing safety functions in both the open and closed direction should be stroked to the open position and then tested in the closed position.

For the 1/2SI8841A,B and 1/2SI8949A,C valves, it is best to perform the backflow (Bt) test, which in this case is accomplished in conjunction with the leakage test (Lt), on the same frequency as the full flow (Ct) test, thus testing them to their open position and then to their closed position.

The alternate test frequency is adequate to maintain this portion of RHR in a state of operation readiness, while not sacrificing the safety of the plant, or causing undue hardship in returning to power with no compensating increase in safety.

5.

Basis for Relief:

The full stroke exercising of valves not stroked quarterly is required to be performed during cold shutdowns. However, the stroking of the Containment Sump Outlet Isolation valves, 1/2SI8811A, B requires the suction of the Residual Heat Removal Pumps to be drained, thus rendering.

one train of the system inoperable.

For Cold Shutdown operations with the Reactor Coolant Loops filled and one train of Residual Heat Removal declared inoperable, Byron Station's Technical Specifications require two steam generators with a secondary side narrow range water level greater than 41% (Unit 1) and greater than 18% (Unit 2).

However, if the cold shutdown was necessitated by a problem requiring draining of the secondary side of the Steam Generators (i.e. tube leaks), Byron Station's Technical Specification 3.4.1.4.l' would preclude the testing of the containment sump outlet isolation valves until such time as the affected' steam' generators had been refilled.

For Cold Shutdown operations with the Reactor Coolant Loops not filled (i.e. drained down to support Reactor Vessel Incore-Seal Table, Loop Stop Valve, Reactor Coolant Pump and Seal Maintenance or primary leakage), Byron Station's Technical Specification 3.4.1.4.2 would

. preclude the. testing of the Containment Sump Outlet ~ Isolation Valves as it mandates that "two residual heat removal (RHR) Loops shall be operable and at least one RHR Loop shall be in operation".

7.

Justification:

The full stroke testing of the 1/2SI8811A, B valves; in conjunction with system draining, filling and venting of each train, accounts for'an additional six days (3 days per train) of scheduling requirements and increased radiation dose to operators and radiological control personnel.

Processing of thousands of gallons of containment water, and

~

subsequent required liquid effluent discharges would also result from the draining, refilling and venting of the RHR system. This time duration required to perform the surveillance testing of the Containment Sump Outlet Isolation Valves during Cold Shutdown activities, could, as a result, cause a violation of the action requirements for Byron Station's Technical Specifications 3.4.1.4.1 and 3.4.1.4.2.

The violations would occur since these action statements require (as_noted in their respective foot note sections) the return of the inoperable residual heat removal loop to service within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, if such loop was removed for surveillance testing provided the other RHR Loop'is operable and in operation.

In addition, NRC Generic Letter 88-17, Loss of Decay Heat Removal, highlights the consequences of.a loss of RH during reduced Reactor Coolant System inventory (below three feet below the reactor vessel flange).

If the operating RH pump is lost due to air entertainment, and the other train is inoperable for the stroke test, then the " operable" train must be vented to restore decay heat removal. Under worst conditions, boiling in the core would occur in approximately 10 minutes, the core would be uncovered in approximately 30 minutes, and fuel damage would occur in approximately 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.

Given the apparent disparity,between the Technical Specification time requirements for an inoperable RHR Loop return to service (2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />) and the time required to perform surveillance stroke testing of the Containment Sump Outlet Isolation valves (3 days) during Cold Shutdown, the proposed alternate testing frequency of refueling outage periodicity.

ASME Code.Section XI Reauirement:

Exercise check valves to the position required to fulfill their function (Bt/ Closed, Ct/Open), unless such operation is not practical'during plant operation, per IWV-3522.

5.

Basis for Relief:

The 1/2AF001A/B valves are the suction check valves to the AFW pumps from the condensate storage tanks, and function to prevent backflow of essential service water if that suction source is required.

It is undesirable to full stroke open these valves quarterly due to the transients placed en the feedwater system and the thermal stresses imposed on the steam generator (S/G) nozzles (refer to program note 12).

With respect to acoustically testing these valves to prove closure, versus disassembly, the operating surveillance procedure used for the auxiliary feedwater (AFW) check valve cold shutdown full stroke test is written to test a single train of AFW at a time.

With an AFW pump running on mini-flow recirculation, flow is. initiated to'each S/G on a gradual basis, while simultaneously reducing feedwater flow. As soon as the required flow data is obtained, AFW flow is gradually reduced, while simultaneously increasing feedwater flow, to minimize feedwater flow perturbations to the S/Gs. Due to this gradual change in flow, the open and close acoustical impacts cannot be observed from that of the flow noise.

However, the acoustic data taken during the 18 month dual pump injection test, has provided sufficient data to determine valve disk closure (refer to SMAD Report M-6479-91, dated 10-28-91).

This test is scheduled during the shutdown process, preceding reactor refueling, due to the large transient placed on feedwater flow and the thermal stresses imposed on the S/Gs.

The application of RCM (Reliability Centered Maintenance) to the AF system has both concluded and recommended that performing acoustic monitoring on a 3 year frequency is sufficient to detect if the check valves fail to close..The failure analysis process required that the functional failures identified be evaluated using the failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA). The FMEA provides a format for identifying the dominant failure modes of component failures leading to a functional failure and the impact of each component failure locally at the component, on the system, and on the plant.

Dagis for Relieft (continued)

Additionally, the closure capability of these valves cannot.be verified adequately by performing a back pressure test due to the multiple boundary isolation points. The system configuration makes it. impossible to assign any observed leakage to any individual valve or component using standard mass make-up or pressure decay techniques.

6.

Alternate Testino:

The 1/2AF001A and 1/2AF001B suction check valves will be acoustically tested for closure (Bt) at each refuel outage in conjunction with the AFW full flow test and equipment response time of the AFW pumps. The open stroke (Ct) test will be tested during cold shutdowns, or at least once during each refueling cycle (approximately 18 months).

7.

Justification:

Performing a pressure test to verify closure is impractical due to the system configuration. To perform this test it would be necessary to attach a pump or some other type of pressure scurce to a test counection and pressurize the line contain4ng the valve. However,.this lL a also contains many potential leskage paths (valves, pump seals, and instruments).

It is not possible to assign a leakage value '. any specific path using available methods of seat leakage testenp Maintenance history and previous inspections of these valves at both Byron and Braidwood stations has shown no evidence of degradation cnr physical impairments.

Industry experience,.as documented in NPRDS, has shown no history of problems with these valves. A company wide check valve evaluation addressing the "EPRI Application Guidelines for Check Valves in Nuclear Power Plants" revealed that the location, orientation and application of these valves are not conducive to the type,of wear or degradation correlated with SOER 86-03 type problems.

Acoustic testing provides ample information relative to valve condition, without physically taking the valve apart for visual inspection to prove-

)

-ralve closure. These valves are of the same design (manufacturer, size,.

j madel, and materials of construction) and have the same service conditions, including orientation. Upon abnormal'or questionable acoustic test results, the valve will be scheduled for disassembly and-internal visual inspection.

The results of this inspection will be used to further evaluate the standby train valve as well, for possible-action. This type of' alternate testing provides more than adequate assurance of both valve functional and operational requirements.

The alternate test method is sufficient to ensure both functional'and operational requirements are met based on RCM failure mode and effect analysis for these valves, j

Valves which serve the smne function on dual trains (i.e.,

Refer to IST Technical Approach and Position VA-04 for related information.

7.

Justificatigni Using fixed ALERT RANGES based on the valve REFERENCE VALUE established when the valve was known to be operating acceptable will ensure that gradual valve performance degradation is monitored and evaluated, by placing the valve on increased testing frequency when the stroke time exceeds a fixed multiple of the REFERENCE VALUE.

This method is superior to that required by the ASME Code in that the point of reference used to evaluate the performance trend on a valve remains fixed. This alternative utilizes the same stroke time percentage change values as required by the ASME Code to place a valve on. increased frequency testing.

The backflow test will be performed in conjunction with their leakage test.

7.

Justification:

a.

1/2RY8046 This alternate frequency will adequately maintain the system in a state of operational readiness, by testing these valves as often as safely possible.

Shutting down the RCP's and the subsequent restarting incurs a reactor vessel overpressurization risk.

In addition, it is operationally undesirable due to the time and manpower involved in starting an RCP.

Also, an operator is required to observe the RCP shaft rotation upon starting.

Stopping and starting RCP's would add unnecessary radiation exposure (approximately 20 mrem).

b.

1/2RY8047 This alternate frequency will adequately maintain the system in a state of operational readiness, by testing these valves as often as safely possible.

This frequency will avoid placing the plant in the unsafe condition which would result from removing the protective Nitrogen blanket from the Pressurizer Relief Tank, Removal of this blanket could result'in the creation-of an explosive mixture of Hydrogen and Oxygen.

Relief requested from the 3 month test frequency for the backflow

(. T)

B test as stated in ASME Section XI IWV-3521:

" Check Valves shall be exercised at least once every 3 months, except as provided by IWV-3522".

IWV-3522 states that valves that cannot be exercised during plant operation shall be specifically identified by the owner ind shall be full stroke exercised during cold shutdowns.

l 5.

Basis for Relief:

These valves are located inside containment on the Chilled Water supply lines to the Reactor Containment Fan Coolers (RCFC) chilled water coils.

Their safety function in the closed direction is to provide a leak-tight barrier between the containment atmosphere and the environment during accident conditions.

Testing these valves to the closed position on either a quarterly or cold. shutdown frequency would cause undue hardship with no compensating return i.. plant safety.

6.

Alternate Testino:

These valves will be backflow tested

(. T) each refueling outage. The B

backflow test will be performed in conjunction-with their leakage test.

7.

Justificationt This alternate frequency will adequately maintain the system in a state of operational readiness, by testing these valves as often as is practical. Backflow testing of these valves during operation or at cold shutdown would involve removing this system from service for approximately three (3) days per valve to complete. ~ This includes approximately two (2) days to drain approximately 3000 gallons of Chilled Water from the RCFC coils and approximately one (1) day to fill and vent the isolated portions of the piping. Therefore, the time required for test execution and preparation and the processing of such a ~

large quantity of water make it impractical to perform this test on anything other than a refueling f requency, i

Number of Items: 4 3.

ASN3 Code Cateoorv: C 4.

ASME Code.Section XI Recuirements:

Exercise check valves to the position required to fulfill their function (open = Ct; closed = Bt), unless such operation is not practical during plant operation, per IWV-3522, 5.

Basis for Relief:

The 1/2CS011A/B check valves are on the discharge of the eductor and the safety function in the open direction is to allow flow from the discharge of the CS pump and the spray additive tank back to the suction of the CS pump. They function in the closed direction to prevent backflow into the eductor from the CS pump suction side. These valves cannot be full or design flow (185 gpm is the design flow rate - 130 gpm eductor flow plus 55 gpm NaOH flow) tested as a matter of course during unit operation or cold shutdown as NaOH.from the spray additive' tank would be discharged throughout the CS system causing undesirable chemical ef fects on the reactor make-up supply (RWST) and associated systems.

Non-intrusive techniques (NIT) using acoustics and magnetics have not been successful in proving full stroke of the disk plates. The reason is that the critical flow rate is 10 feet per second (the mmount of flow which is required to full-stroke the disks) and cannot be obtained based on current system design.

It is considered to be impractical and burdensome to attempt to disassemble valves in both trains every outage. Large amounts of reactor grade water needs to be reprocessed due to the need to drain the entire system before removing the valve from the system.

Alternate Testino:

The A and B train valves are of the same design (manufacturer, size, model number, and materials of construction) and have the same service conditions, including orientation, therefore they form a sample disassembly group.

One valve from each group, on a per unit basis, will be examined each refueling outage.

If the disassembled valve is not capable.of being manually full stroked exercised or if there is binding or failure of internals, the remaining valve on the affected unit will be inspected.

In addition to the above, the 1/2CS011A, B valves will be partial stroke tested during the quarterly pump surveillance and after maintenance in order to verify that it was installed correctly.

7.

Justification:

The 1/2CS011A, B valves are removed from the system and visually examined per the strict detailed inspection requirements of the Station Check Valve Program. This inspection adequately verifies that the valves are maintained in a state of operational readiness and that their performance parameters are adequately assessed.

The valves are verified to be functional'by performing a thorough visual inspection of the internals and by performing a manual full-stroke exercise of each disc.

The wafer type design of the valve body for these valves makes their removal a simple process, with little chance of damage'to their internals. Also, there is no disassembly of internal' parts required; all wear surfaces are accessible to visual examination. After inspection and stroke testing, the valve is reinstalled into the line and post maintenance testing is performed.

The alternate test frequency is justifiable in that maintenance history and previous inspections of these valves at both Byron and Braidwood stations has shown no evidence of degradation or physical impairments.

In addition, industry experience, as documented in NPRDS, show no history of problems with these types of valves in this service. This data indicates that there is no significant decrease in plant safety by

~

performing sample disassembly.

+

The alternate test method is sufficient to ensure operability of these valves and is consistent with Generic Letter 89-04, Position 2.

The hardship involved with full' stroke exercising these check valves,'ifLthe Code requirements were imposed, does not provide a compensated increase in safety of these CS system check valves.
