l l APPLICABILITY BASES 4.0.5 This spec'fication ensures that inservice inspection of ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 comlonent s and inservice _ testing of ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 pumps and valves will be performed in accordance with a periodically updated version of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and Addenda as required by 10 CFR $0, Section 50.55a. Relief from any of the above requirements has been provided in writing by the Commission and is not a part of these technical specifications. This specification includes a clarification of the frequencies for performing the inservice inspection and testing activities required by Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. This clarification is provided to ensure consistency in surveillance intervals throughout these Technical Specifications and to remove any ambiguities relative to the frequencies for performing the required inservice inspection and testing activities. Under the terms of this specification, the more restrictive requirements of the Technical Specifications take precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. For example, t he requirement s of Specification 4.0.4 to perform surveillance activities prior to entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability condition takes precedence over the ASHE iloiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows pumps to be tested up to one week af ter return to normal operation. And, for example, the Technical Specification definition of OPERABLC does not grant a grace period before a device that is not capable of performing its specified f unction is ueclared inoperable and takes prei Jence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure' Vessel Code provision which allows a <alve to be incapable of performing its specified f unction for up to 24 hours bef ore being declared inoperable. This specification includes a statement that the inservice inspection Program for pipe covered by the scope of CL 88-01 will be in conf ormance with the stat f positions on schedule, methods and personnel, and sample expansion included in CL 88-01. This requirement may be removed form the technical specifications in the future in line with the. Technical Specification improvement programs, n-l BRUNSWICK - UNIT 1 B 3/4 0-3 Amendment No.

The system is designed to meet the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section !!! f or the pressure vessel and ANSI B31.1, 1975, Code for the reactor coolant system piping. 3/4.4.3 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM LEAKACE 3/4.4.3.1 L

                        'EAKACE DETECTION SYSTEMS The RCS leakage detection systems required by this specification are provided t o monitor and detect leakage f rom the Reactor Coolant Pressure boundary. These detection systems are consistent with t he recommendat ions of Regulatory Guide 1.45, " Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Leakage Det ect ion Systems."                                                                                                                    -

3/4.4.3.2 OPERATIONAL LEAKAGE Th e allowable leakage rates of coolant from the reactor coolant system have been base) on the predicted and experimentally observed behavior of cracks in pipes.- The normally expected background leakage due to equipment design and the detection capability of the instrumentation for determining syst em leakage was also considered. The evidence 'obtained f rom experiments suggests that f or leakage somewhat greater than that specified f or unidentified leakage, the probability is small that the imperf ect ion or crack associated with_ such leakage would grow rapidly. However, in all cases, if the leakage rates exceed the values specified or the leakage is located and known to be PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKACE, the r tactor will be shut down t o allow further investigation and corrective actic.. Monitoring leakage at eight hour intervals is in conformance with the 12/21/89 NRC SER for CL 88-01. 3/4.4.4 CHEMISTRY The reactor water chemistry limits are established to prevent dama ge to the reactor materials in contact with the coolant. Chloride limits are specified to prevent stress corrosion cracking of the stainless steel. The etfeet of chloride is not as great when the oxygen concentration in the coolant is lowl thus, the higher limit 9n chlorides is permit ted during f ull power operation. During shutdown and refueling operations, the temperature necessary for, st ress corrosion to occer is not present. Conduct ivi ty measurement s ere required on a continuous basis since changes in this parameter are an !ndication of abnormal conditions. When the conductivity is within limit s, the pH, chlorides, and other impurities af fecting conductivity must also be within their a,ceptable limit s. With the conductivity outside the limits, additional samples must be examined to ensure

        .that the chlorides are not exceeding the limits.
