BASES FOR LIMITIto CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION 3.2.C.9. RCIC Steam Line Pressure Low (Continued) 4 lation setpoint of 50 psig is chosen at 'a pressure below that at which the RCIC turbine can effectively operate.

10. RCIC Steam Line Flow (High)

RCIC turbine high steam flow could indicate a break in the RCIC turbine steam line. The automatic closure of the RCIC steam line isolation valves prevents the excessive less of reactor coolant and the release of

, significant amounts of radioactive materials from the nuclear system process barrier. _Upon detection of RCIC turbine high steam flow the RCIC turbine steam line is isolated. The high steam flow trip setting of 300%

flow was selected high enough to avoid spurious isolation, i.e. , above the high steam flow rate encountered during turbine starts. The setting was selected low enough to provide timely detection of an RCIC turbine steam line break.

11. RCIC Turbine Exhaust Diaphragm Pressure High High pressure in the RCIC turbine exhaust could indicate that the turbine rotor is not turning, thus allowing reactor pressure to act on the turbine exhaust line. The RCIC steam line isolation VElves ' are automatically closed to prevent overpressurization of the turbine exhaust line. The turbine exhaust diaphragm pressure trip setting of 10 psig is selected high enough to avoid isolation of the RCIC if the turbine is operating, yet low enough to effect isolation before the turbine exhaust line is unduly pressurized.

4

12. Suppression Chamber Area Air Temperature High As in the RCIC equipment room, and for the same reason, a temperature of 90 F + ambient will initiate a timer to isolate the RCIC turbine steam line.
13. Suppression Chamber Area Differential Air Temperature High As for the RCIC equipment room differential temperature, and for the same reason, a high differential air temperature between the inlet and outlet ducts which ventilate the suppression chamber area will also initiate a timer to isolate the RCIC turbine steam line.
14. RCIC Logic Power Failure Monitor The RCIC Logic Power Failure Monitor monitors the availability of power to the logic system. -In the event of loss of availability of power to the logic system, an alarm is annuncjated in the control room.
15. Condensate Storage Tank Level Low The low CST level -signal- transfers RCIC suction from the CST to the suppression pool. The setpoint was chosen to ensure an uninterrupted supply of water during suction transfer.
16. Suppression Pool Water Level High l

A high water level in the suppression chamber automatically' switches RCIC suction from the CST to the suppression pool.

3.2-57

BASES FOR LIMITIMI CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION 3.2.J.4. Scintillation Detector For Monitoring Radiciodine (Continued)

Level reading is indicative of a leak in the nuclear system process barrier in the primary containment. A sample that is continuously -drawn from the primary containment is collected on an iodine filter and monitored by a gamma sensitive scintillation detector. Radiation levels are read out by a log rate meter and recorded on a strip chart located in the control room. A high radiation level alarm and a failure alarm are also provided and are annunciated in the control room. Also, a high-low flow alarm is annunciated in the control room.

5. GM Tubes For Monitoring Noble Gases A set of GM tubes contained in an instrument rack are used to monitor the release of noble gases in the drywell and torus. A high radiation level reading is indicative of a leak in the nuclear system process barrier in the primary containment. A sample that is continuously drawn from the primary containment is passed through a shielded sample chamber which contains the beta sensitive GM tubes. Radiation levels are read out by a log rate meter and recorded on a strip chart located in the control room. A high radiation level alarm and failure alarm are provided and are annunciated in the control room. Also, a high-low flow alarm is annunicated in the control room.

K. Instrumentation Which Provides Surveillance Information (Table 3.2-11)

For each parameter monitored, as listed in Table 3.2-11, there are two channels of instrumentation except for the control rod positions indicating system and the post-accident effluent monitors. By comparing readings between the two channels, a near continuous surveillance. of J ' instrument performance is available. Any significant deviation in readings will~ initiate an early recalibration, thereby maintaining the quality of the instrument readings.

The hydrogen and oxygen analyzing systems consist of two redundant, separate systems and are each capable of analyzing the hydrogen and oxygen content of the drywell/ torus simultaneously. They are designed to be completely testable at both the analyzer rack and in the control room. With an oxygen concentration of less than 4% by volume, a flammable mixture with hydrogen is not possible.

L Instrumentation Which Initiates Disconnection of Offsite Power Sources (Table 3.2-12)

The undervoltage relays shall automatically initiate the' disconnection of offsite power sources whenever, the voltage setpoint and time delay limits have been exceeded This action shall provide voltage . protection for the emergency power systems by preventing sustained degraded voltage conditions- due to the offsite power source and interaction between the offsite and onsite. emergency power systems. The undervoltage - relays have a time delay characteristic that provides protection against both a loss of voltage 'and degraded voltage condition and thus minimizes the effect of short duration disturbances' without exceeding the maximum time delay, including margin, that is assumed in the FSAR accident analyses.

BASES FOR LIMITItG CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION AND SURVEILLANCE REQUIREENTS 3.5.D.2. Operation With Inoperable Components The WCI system serves as a backup to the RCIC system as a source of feedwater makeup during primary system isolation conditions. The ADS serves as a backup to the HPCI system for reactor depressurization for postulated transients and accidents. Both these systems are checked for operability if the HPCI system is determined to- be inoperable.

, Considering the redundant systems, an allowable repair time of seven (7) days was selected.

E. Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) System

1. Normal lystem Availability The various conditj!:ns under which the RCIC system plays an essential role ' in' providing inakeup viater to the reactor vessel have been identified by evaluat'ing the various plant events over the full range of planned operations. The specifications ensure that the function for which the RCIC system was designed will be available when needed.

Because the low-pressure cooling systems (LPCI and core spray) are capable of providing all the cooling required for any plant event when nuclear system pressure is below 113 psig, the RCIC system is not t required below this pressure. Between 113 psig and 150 psig the RCIC system need not provide its design flow, but reduced flow is required for certain events. RCIC system esign flow (400 gpm) is sufficient to maintain water level above the-t(p o of the active fuel for a complete loss of feedwater flow at the design power.

Two sources of water are available to the RCIC system. Suction is initially taken from the condensate storage tank and is automatically transferred to the suppression pool upon low CST level or high suppression pool level.

(

2. Operation With Inoperable Components Consideration of the availability of the RCIC system reveals that the av'erage risk associated with failure of the RCIC system to cool the core when required is. not increased if the RCIC system is inoperable for no longer than Seven .(7) days, provided that the WCI system is operable during this period.

F. Automatic Depressurization System (ADS)

1. Normal System Availability This specification ensures the operability of the ADS under all conditions fc1 which the depressurization of the nuclear system is an essential repp,onse to Unit abnormalities.

The nuclear s ystem pressure relief system provides automatic nuclear system;'deprassurization for small breaks in he nuclear system so that the Jow-pressure coolant injection (LPCI) and the core spray system can operate to protect the fission product barrier. Note that this Specification applies only to the automatic feature of the pressure relief system. 'O 3.5-17s s

g. Administrative procedures shall be developed and implemented to limit the aorking hours of Unit staff who perform safety-related functions; e.g., senior reactor operators, reactor operators, auxiliary operators, health physicists, and key maintenance personnel.

Adequate shift coverage shall be maintained without routine heavy use of overtime. The objective shall be to have operating personnel work a normal 8-hour day, 40-hour week while the plant is operating. However, in the event that unforeseen problems require substantial amounts of overtime to be used or during extended periods of shutdown for refueling, major maintenance, or major plant modifications, the following guidelines shall be followed on a temporary basis:

(1) An individual should not be permitted to work more than 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> straight, excluding shift turnover time.

(2) An individual should not be permitted to work more than 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> in any 24-hour period, nor more than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> in any 48-hour period, ncr more than 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> in any seven day period, all excluding shift turnover time.

(3) A break of at least eight hours should be allowed between work periods, including shift turnover time.

(4) Except during extended shutdown periods, the use of overtime should be considered on an individual basis and not for the entire staff on a shift.

Any deviation from the above guidelines shall be authorized by the Plant General Manager or his deputy of higher levels of management, in accordance with established procedures and with documentation of the basis for granting the deviation. Controls shall be included in the procedures such that individual overtime shall be reviewed monthly by the Plant General Manager or his designee to assure that excessive hours have not been assigned. Routine deviation from the above guidelines is not authorized.

  • If either the primary or secondary indication is inoperable, the torus temperature will be monitored at least once per shift to observe any unexplained temperature increases which might be indicative of an open SRV.

With both the primary and secondary monitoring channels of two or more SRVs inoperable, either restore sufficient inoperable channels such that no more than one SRV has both primary and secondary channels inoperable within 7 days or be in at least hot shutdown within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

    • A channel is comprised of five detectors; one for mid-range noble gas, one for high-range noble gas, and one for each of three iodine / particulate collectors.

Both noble gas detectors and one iodine / particulate detector must be operable to consider the channel operable.

With the minimum channels operable requirement not met either rest'or'e the inoperable channel to operable status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or:

a. Initiate the pre-planned alternate method of monitoring the appropriate parameters and
b. Prepare and submit a special report to the Commission pursuant to Specification 6.9.2 within 14 days following the event outlining the action taken, the cause of the inoperability, and the plans and schedule for restoring the system to operable status.

INSTRUE NTATION i

( ESES ,

3/4.3.2 ISOLATION ACTUATION INSTRUENTATION i

l This specification ensures the effectiveness of the instrumentation used l to mitigate the consequences of accidents by prescribing the OPERABILITY requirements, trip setpoints and response times for isolation of the reactor

! systems. When necessary, one channel may be inoperable for brief intervals

! to conduct required surveillance. Some of the trip settings have tolerances explicitly stated where both the high and low values are critical and may have a substantial effect on safety. The setpoints of other instrumentation, where only the high or low end of the setting has a direct

bearing on safety, are established at a level away from the normal operating
range to prevent inadvertent actuation of the systems involved.

l l Except for the MSIVs, the safety analysis does not address individual l sensor response times or the response times of the logic systems to which l the scnsors are connected. For DC operated valves a 3-second delay is l assumed before the valve starts to move. For the AC operated valves it is i assumed that the AC power supply is lost and is restored by startup of the l emergency diesel generators. In this event, a time of 13 seconds is assumed before the valve starts to move. In addition to the pipe break, the failure l of the DC operated valve is assumed; thus the signal delay (sensor response) l 1s concurrent with the 13 second diesel startup. The safety analysis l considers an allowable inventory loss in each case which in turn determines

, the valve speed in conjunction with the 13 second delay. It follows that I checking the valve speeds and the 13 second time for emergency power establishment will establish the response time for the isolation functions.

However, to enhance overall system reliability, the isolation actuation l Instrumentation response time shall be measured and recorded as a part of l the ISOLATION SYSTEM RESPONSE TI E.

Minimum response times for isolation of HPCI or RCIC on high steam line flow prevent spurious isolations due to pressure spikes in the steam supply.

3/4.3.3 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEM ACTUATION INSTRUMENTATION The emergency core cooling system actuation instrumentation is provided to initiate actions to mitigate the consequences of accidents that are beyond the ability of the operator to control. This specification provides the OPERABILITY requirements, trip setpoints and response times that ~will ensure effectiveness of the systems to provide the design protection.

Although the instruments are listed by system, in some cases the same instrument is used to send the actuation signal to several systems - at the same time. ..

c. At least once per 18 months by:

, 1. Performing a system functional test which includes simulated automatic actuation (and restart *) and verifying that each automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct l position, but may exclude actual injection of coolant into the reactor vessel.

2. Verifying that the system will develop a flow of at least 400 gpm on recirculation flow when steam is supplied to the i turbine at a pressure of 150 + 15, -0 psig.
3. Verifying that the suction for the RCIC system can be manually transferred between the condensate storage tank and the suppression pool.

g. Administrative procedures shall be developed 'and implemented to y limit the working hours of Unit staff who perform safety-related functions; e.g., senior reactor operators, reactor operators, auxiliary operators, health physicists, and key maintenance personnel.

Adequate shift coverage shall be maintained without routine heavy use of overtime. The objective shall be to have operating personnel work a normal 8-hour day, 40-hour week while +he plant is operating. However, in the event that unforeseen prob. 3 require substantial amounts of overtime to be used or during extended periods of shutdown for refueling, major maintenance, or . major plant modifications, the following guidelines shall be followed on a temporary basis:

(1) An individual should not be permitted to work more than 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> straight, excluding shift turnover time.

(3) A break of at least eight hours should be allowed between work periods, including shift turnover time.

(4) Except during extended shutdown periods, the use of overtime should be considered on an individual basis and not for the entire staff on a shift.

Any deviation from the above guidelines shall be authorized by the Plant General Manager or his deputy of higher levels of management, l in accordance with established procedures and with documentation of the basis for granting the deviation. Controls shall be included in the procedures such that individual overtime shall be reviewed l monthly by the Plant General Manager or his designee to assure that excessive hours have not been assigned. Routine deviation from the above guidelines is not authorized.
