ATTACHMENT C EVALUATION OF SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION s Commonwealth Edhion has evaluated this proposed amendment and determined that it Involves no significant hazards considerations. According to 10 CFR 50.92(c), a proposed amendment to an operating license involves no significant hazards considerations if operation of the tacility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not:

1. Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previour.ly evaluated; or
2. Create th9 poss!bility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previouWy evaluated; or 4
3. Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The proposed change does not result in a significant increase in the probability or consequence of accidents previously evaluated. The radiation monitors are designed to provide a response to a radiologicat incident. The operability of these monitors does not factor into the sequence of events required for a radlological release to the atmosphere to occur. They serve to Initiate action to prevent a release from unacceptably impacting the Control Room; they do not prevent a release from occurring.

The subject radiation monitors function to isolate the Control Room Ve< . Von System (VC) outside air intakes la the event of a high radiation condition. Each train of the VC syntom is provided with redundant radiation monitors. Only one train of VC is operated at a time. The proposed change would ahow the operation of a train of VC with a full comploment of radiaticn monitors in the normal configuration. Assuming a limiting scenario of the plant operating wit.'

degraded monitoring on the idle VC train with the occurrence of a radioactive release and subsequent failure of the running train, the Idle train could be started. This train would still have a single radiation monitor available, if the Initiating event resulted in a Stfety injection signal, the ventilation system would automatically align to the post-accident mode. This provides a diverse means of providing radiological protection for the Control Room. The proposed change

, does N alter the manner in which the actuation signalis provided, nor does it have an impact on the response of the VC system to a valid actuation signal.

The proposed changa does not create the possibility for a now or different kind of accident from any accident previousiy evaluate 1. The proposed chan e does not introduce any new or different equipment, end it will not result in Installed eq pment being operated In a new or different manner. The change will allow the operation o a fully operable train of VC, rather than require that a train with degraded monitoring be operated in its post accident configuration, The monitors err designed to failin a safe condition, so required system configuration or operation are not precluded.

The proposed chan Je does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of saicty. The proposed change allows the operation of a VC train with full radiation monitoring capability. In the event there is one monitor per train inoperable, the change does not render the plant vulnerable to a single failure which would result in the overexposure of control room personnel.

. Additior"lity, the Control Room is equ) ped with Area Radiation Monitors which provide an alarm upon detection of a high radiation condition. As such, suffih 9s will remain available to ensure that the VC system is capable of being both au !Iy and manually aligner to provido for the mitigntion of radiological events.

' / sci:lD705:5

.. r ATTACHMENT D ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT STATEMENT Braldwood & Byron Stations have evaluated the proposed amendment agal'nst the criteria for P

', an identification of licensing and regulatory actions requiring environmental assessment in accordance with 10 CFR 51.21. It has been determined that the proposed change meets the criteria for a categorical exclusion as provided fcr under 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). This l det6;mination la based ori the fact that this change is being proposed as an amendment to a -

license issued p;.;uant to 10 CFR 50, and the change affects a requirement with respect to the use of a facility component located within the restricted area, and the change involves no significant hazards considerations. There is no change in the amount or type of releases made offsite, and there is no significant increase in Individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.

6.4'.2.5L Shieldina Desian--

Theidesign-basis accident for the control room area shielding is-the loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). The shielding.is '

designed'so that the doses to the control 1 room personnel over the course.of the' accident are well below the. limit specified '

in General Design Criteria 19 of 10 CFR 50, Appendix A.

The control room envelope,is shown in Figure 6.4-1. An isometric' view of the control' room is shown.in Figure 6.4-2.

The design of the control room envelope shielding is based on the sources given in Table 6.4-1. The distribution of the LOCA

. sources outside'the control room are shown in Figures 6.4-3 and i 6.4-4. All of the noble. gases and 250 of the iodines'are pre-  ;

sumedLto E remain airborne and eventually escape into the plume. l Radioactive decay in the plume is ignored.

Shielding 1 thicknesses for the control room are shown in Figure

'6~4-2 and enumerated.in Table 6'.4-1. The sources for the-LOCA

shielding:model are'shown_in Figures 6.4-3 and 6.4-4. ,i 6f4.3 -System!Ocerational procedurgi

-The contro1Lroom'is a common facility which serves both Units 1-

-equipment trains. The systems'are-shown in simplified schema-

' tic in: Figures;6.4-5, 6.4'-6,.and.6.4-7. Note that only one of Lthe redundant trains-is detailed in the sketches; the other train contains equivalent equipment. The controleroom envelope- +

This mixture of recirculated andLoutside air.is mixed and then passed through

~

.high-efficiency filters and then bypasses the charcoal

3. adsorbers. prior'_to being discharged into the control room.

Upon: detection of high radiation in'the minimum outside air '

intake, orLuponLa safety injection signal, the normally open outside air dampers.close.- The normally closed dampers of the turbine-building emergency' air intake are opened and the emer-gency makeup ~ air-filter unit'is started. In addition, air that is normally bypassing the recirculation charcoal adsorber is routed through this charcoal adsorber. All of these-actuations L

l 6.4-9

1 B/B-UFSAR are automatic and the new system line-up is shown diagrammati-cally in Figure 6.4-6.

In' addition, a radiation monitor located on each of the emergency makeup air filter trains monitors the radiological quality of the air delivered to the control room envelope.

Should high moisture due to a steam line break in the turbine building occur, a humidity sensor located in the turbine build-ing emergency makeup air intake will annunciate this condition in the main control room. This will alert the operator of this condition. The operator may then draw the makeup air from the minimum outside air intake by opening the normally closed bypass damper and closing the turbine building emergency makeup air intake damper. This is shown diagrammatically in Figure 6.4-7.

To remove any toxic gases, odors, and smoke from the control room environs, a charcoal adsorber is provided with each con-trol room HVAC equipment string. These adsorbers, located downstream of high-efficiency filters, are normally bypassed.

At Braidwood, if the station is notified of a toxic gas release

.in the near vicinity, the control room HVAC system is menually isolated via.a control switch on-the local panel. Actuation of the control switch places the system in 100% recirculation mode and routes the air through the charcoal adsorbers.

On detection of ionization products in the return air duct or mixed air _ plenum, the mixed air (return air and makeup air) is automatically routed through the charcoal adsorber and annun-ciated on the main control board. The operator may continue to route the system supply air through the charcoal adsorber for smoke removal, or depending on the condition of the outside air, may manually bypass the charcoal adsorber and purge the entire system with outside air. On ionization detection in out-door makeup air intake, annunciation in the control room alerts the1 operator to transfer operation to a redundant equipment string utilizing a remote intake.

In'the event of high radiation detection in the makeup air intake of-the control room HVAC system, the radiation moni-toring system automatically shuts off normal outside makeup air supply to the system. The minimum outside air requirement is obtained from the turbine building makeup air intake and is routed through the makeup air filter train and. fan (for removal of-radioactf<e particulates and iodine) before being supplied to the system. The makeup air is then mixed with return air and is routed-through the recirculation charcoal adsorber for the removal of radioactive iodine before.being supplied to the vital areas of the control room envelope.

Two makeup air filter trains and fans are provided, each cap-able of handling minimum requirements of makeup air for the l system. In the event of high radiation levels, each train is 6.4-10

B/B-UFSAR d

sized to process 6,000 cfm of makeup air. The nakeup air

- filter units are described in detail in Subsection 6.5.1.

6.4.4 pesian Eyaluatisr.

The control room HVAC system is Owsigned to maintain a habit-able environment compatible with prolonged service life of safety-related components in the control room under all the station operating conditions. The system is only provided with redundant equipment strings to meet the single-failure criterion. The equipment strings are powered from redundant Unit 1 ESF buses and are operable during loss of offsite power. All the control room HVAC system equipment except heating and humidification equipment is designed for Seismic Category I loads.

6.4.4.1 Radioloaical Prolection Two radiation monitors are-provided in each control room HVAC system makeup air intake to detect high radiation. These monitors cause annunciation in the control room upon detection of high radiation or monitor failure conditions. Area radia-tion monitors are provided in the control room. The respective makeup air filter. train connected to the operating equipment string (designed to remove radioactive particulates and adsorb radioactive' iodine from the minimum quantity of makeup air) is automatically started upon high radiation signals in makeup air. The radiation monitors are described in detail in Subsec-tions 11.5.2 and 12.3.4.

The makeup air filter-trains, the recirculation charcoal adsorbers, and control room shielding are designed to limit the occupational dose below levels required by General Design Criterion 19 of-10 CFR 50 Appendix A. Doses are tabulated in Table 6.4-1.

The introduction of the minimum quantity of outside air to maintain the control room and other areas served by the control room HVAC system at a positive pressure with respect to sur-roundings, at all the station operating conditions (except at Braidwood, when the system is in recirculation mode) minimizes the possibility of infiltration of unfiltered air into the control room (see Subsection 6.4.2.3).

The physical location of makeup air intakes (see Figure 6.4-1) provides the option of drawing makeup air for the control room HVAC system from the less contaminated intake during and after a LOCA. It.is possible one'of the makeup intakes may not have any contaminants, while the other intake may have contaminants.

An assessment of the radiological dose to control room occu-pants has been made for the loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) postulated in Subsection 15.6.5. This event is considered to be an upper bound of all accidents postulated to occur.

6.4-11 j

B/B-UFSAR

. l:

For.the LOCA assessed here, 100%.of the noble gases and 25% of

~the iodines present in the core are immediately available for release to the environment. Leakage.from ESF equipment handling post-LOCA-fluids is taken from Table 15.6-16. Credit for reduction of the amount of iodine available for-release by engineered safety features (ESF) containment sprays-is taken.

Similarly credit is taken for the ESF control room makeup air

-filters (Subsection 6.5.1), the recirculation charcoal adsorbers, and ESF auxiliary building filters (Subsection 6.5.1).

The total dose as depicted in Figure 6.4-4 i s comprised of four

-components, three of which are dependent on site meteorology.

The effective. atmospheric dispersion values, X/Q,-used were calculated from the equations of Reference 1 and the site meteorology given in Section.2.3.- Specific values used-in this enalysis are given in Table f.4-la.

Control room-occupancy factors were taken from Table 1 of a paper by Murphy & Campe (1973).

Because;of.the control room. design, asinoted in Subsection 6 . 4 . 2 .' 3 , infiltrition is. considered and found to be a minor pathway for radionuclides entering thefcontrol room; all i incoming air-including makeup air passes through=the recircu-lation cht.rcoaliadsorbers. In; addition, the makeup and return air mixture.isErouted through the recirculation charcoal adsorbers (&or adsorb radioactive; iodine from the air mixture). ,

The resulting parametric f act ors and associated doses are_ given in= Table 6.4-1. The doses are well~below General Design Criterion 119 to 10.CFR 50, Appendix A guidelines.-

~This section describes the systems that monitornand: sample the process and effluent streams in order to control the release of radioactive. materials generated as a. result of normal' opera-tion, anticipated operational occurrences,_and during postu-lated-accidents.

11.5.1 Desion_ Bases ,

11.5.1.1' Desion Objectives The process radiological monitoring and sampling system provides measurement, indication, and/or control of radio -

activity in those_ streams-which could conceivably be contaminated by radioactive substances.

The effluent radi'ological. monitoring and sampling system pro- ,i vides measurement, indication, and1 control of radioactivity in those streams-which discharge to the env. irons outside.the plant boundaries.

The systems:are subdividedLinto gaseous (airborne) systems, shown in~ Table 11.5-1, and: liquid systems, shown in Table 11.5-2.1 Both' continuous monitoring and sampling with asso-ciatedLlaboratory analysis-are.used for a11 systems.

The process; monitor systems provide operating personnel with

-radiological measurements within the plant process systems.'

The continuous monitors provide a_ continuous readout of the cradiation levels, and they $nnunciate or generate automatic.

control of the process streams when a significant increase

' occurs. By sampling and laboratory analysis,- the-type of radio-active 1 material and the. specific'radionuclide present can-be determined qualitatively and/or. quantitatively..

The effluent monitoring systems provide-operating personnel with a, continuous readout of-the-radioactivity levels present in1the plant's air exhaust and liquid discharge streams. -

The objective of the effluent radiological monitoring system is

" Lto sampletand nonitor each plant effluent discharge path for radioactivity prior to discharge. This is satisfied by the.

installation offsampling. monitors on the following airborne effluent 7 streams and-liquid effluent streams:

-The' design and operation characteristics of the process and  !

effluent-radiological monitoring and sampling system is based on requirements and guidance in 10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 50, 10 CFR

.NUREG-0737, NUREG-0800, ANSI N13.1-1969, and ANSI N13.10-1974.

3-11.5.1.2 Desion Criteria The design of the process and effluent radiological monitoring  ;

and sampling system was based on the following:

'a.- The-particulate airborne monitors.are beta scintillators, the iodine rirborne monitors are gamma scintillators and the noble gas monitors are beta.scintillators,

b. Liquid' monitors are gamma-responsive scintillation detectors to' provide maximum sensitivity tofa. water medium. ,
c .  : Shielding is providedLto reduce background and' i increase sensitivity,

.. d . - Background compensation ~is provided on selected

, Appendix B) and 10 CFR 50 Appendix I' objectives.-

-Setpoints-for process monitors are established-to

_ provide a warning of_ increased system-activity and to initio+e corrective action-where appropriate.

Also, see Subsection 12.3.4-and Section E.30 of'

-Appendix E.

Twc independently adjustable. radiation setpoints are provided-for most monitors. The-lower-setpoint inormally_~ activates only an alarm,.while the upper-

> (high) setpoint activates an alarm and initiates- --i corrective action where= appropriate. Setpoints are initially set to twice the background level.

Alarms setpoints will be appropriately adjusted as operating experience is gained. Alarm.and trip functions associated with the various monitors are 11.5-4 s- --

'e listed in Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2. The setpoints are under the administrative control of the plant superintendent or his authorised delegate and can be changed if needed within technical specification limits.

o. All process and effluent monitors are annunciated in the main control room. The radiation monitoring equipmt in the main control room will feature an integrated audible (horn) and visual (CRT display) alarm system. In addition, alarr conditions may be automatically logged on the systt .n typer.

The audible alarm is actuated each time a new alarm message is received. The CRT display provides a color coded indication of low level (failure),

alert-interlock., high, and multi-level diagnostic alarms. The alarm message typed will include the date, time, channel number, and alarm condition.

gaseous radiation monitoring.

Contihu.cnLMERiiollag The system consists of a number of separate and distinct monitors and channels as listed in Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2.

Each monitor consists of an isokinetic probe or a tap, detector (s) and associated electronics. The continuous sample is piped to a monitor where the sample is monitored for air particulate, gas, and iodine activity, as shown in Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2. Data and information from each channel is transmitted to the main control room.

The main control room containt. a CRT display, an operator's keyboard, a magnetic tape reco1 der, a har6 disk unit, a central processor and a typer for each unit. The disk maintains an hourly record of radiation levels which may be stored on the recorder for historical purposes. When the radiation level for a particular channel is exceeded, the service, setpoint, and intensity level are displayed on the CRT. In addition, the system alarms to. indicate abnormal conditions.

The microprocessor for each conitor is provided with the following features:

11.5-5

O B/B-UFSAR

n. monitor on-off switch and instrument available light,
b. high radiation level light, and
c. interlock alert radiation level light.

The operete failure alarm also annunciates ir the main control room. This alarm will be initiated by loss of power, loss of signal, or operate failure. The operate failure will also initiate the interlock switching functions. For OpR31J, OpR32J. OpR33J, and OpR34J (Subsection 11.5.2.2.8) the asso-ciated ESF actuation will occur on a 2/2 per train coinci-dence. Reset action cannot be affected until the failure condition is corrected.

Sample prote lecations are chown on HVAC drawings in Section 9.4. Monitet locations are shown on the drawings referenced in Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2 and are also shown and identified on the radiation shielding figures in Section 12.3 (Figures 12.3-5 through 12.3-24).

For the type of radiation detector and measurement made, see Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2.

For most channels which are interlocked with the safety-related systems, redundancy is maintained by using two separate and completely independent channels. In cases where these channels are nc.i-1E, input to the safety-related systems is through non-1E interfacing circuitry located outside the radiation monitoring system cabinets. The redundant Ohannels are designated in Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2 un'ter " Remarks" .

The range of radioactive concenttations to be mo'.11tored is listed in Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2 for each detector. The range selseted was based on the expected icvel of radiation for each service.

For alarm and control interlock setpoint values, refer to the "Setpoint" column in Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2. Radiation monitors which interlock automatic control functions are designated as such in the remarks column of Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2. A reference to the explanatory text section is included.

The radiation monitoring channels employ radioactive check sources. Monitors automatically bypass the interlock function if one is provided upon initiation of the check source test switch.
