CLINTON - UNIT 1 3/4 7-5 AMENDMENT N0.IZ,91

3/4.7 PLANT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.7.1 SHUTDOWN SERVICE WATER SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the shutdown service water system ensures that sufficient cooling capacity is available for continued operation of safety-related equip-ment during accident conditions. The redundant cooling capacity of these sys-tems, assuming a single failure, is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses within acceptable limits.

The ultimate heat sink (UHS) specification ensure that sufficient cooling capacity is available for continued operation of safety-related equipment for at least 30 days to permit safe shutdown and cooldown of the reactor.

The surveillance requirements ensure that quantities maintained are consistent with the assumption used in the accident analysis as described in the USAR and the guidance provided in Regulatory Guide 1.27, January 1976.

3/4.7.2 CONTROL ROOM VENTILATION SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the control room ventilation system ensures that 1) the ambient air temperature does not exceed the allowable temperature for continuous duty rating for the equipment and instrumentation cooled by this system and 2) the control room will remain habitable for operations personnel during and following all design basis accident conditions.

The OPERABILITY of this system in conjunction with control room design provisions is based on limiting the radiation exposure to personnel occupying the control room to 5 rem or less whole body, or its equivalent.

This limitation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criterion 19 of Appendix "A",

10 CFR 50.

Surveillance testing provides assurance that system and component performances continue to be in accordance with performance specifications for Clinton Unit 1, including applicable parts of ANSI N510-1980.

Continuous l

operation of the system with the heaters OPERABLE for 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br /> during each 31 day period is sufficient to reduce the buildup of moisture on the adsorbers and HEPA filters.

The specified heater dissipation is based on a bus voltage of 460 volts.

Heater test results shall be adjusted to account for actual bus voltage.

3/4.7.3 REACTOR CORE ISOLATION COOLING SYSTEM The reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) system is provided to assure adequate core ceoling in the event of reactor isolation from its primary heat sink and the loss of feedwater flow to the reactor vessel without requiring actuation of any of the Emergency Core Cooling System equipment. The RCIC system is conservatively required to be OPERABLE whenever reactor pressure exceeds 150 psig. This pressure is substantially below that for which the low pressure core cooling systems can provide adequate core cooling for events requiring the RCIC system.

The RCIC system specifications are applicable during OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS 1, 2, and 3 when reactor vessel pressure exceeds 150 psig because RCIC is the primary (non-ECCS) source of emergency core cooling when the reactor is pressurized.

With the RCIC system inoperable, adequate core coolina is assured by the OPERABILITY of the HPCS system and justifies the specified 14 day out-of-service period.
