Subject:

LaSalle County Station Units 1 and 2 FSAR Changes to the Startup Test Program NRC Docket Nos. 50-?73 and 50-374

Dear Mr. Denton:

Per a telephone conversation between LaSalle County Station personnel and Mr. Bill Long of your office on October 5,

1983, we are transmitting the enclosed marked up changes to thc caSalle County FSAR.

Enclosed please find proposed changes to FSAR Table 14.2-130, Table 14.2-124, Table 14.2-114 and Figure 14.2-2.

A summary of each change is provided below.

Table 14.2-130 As this startup test is not included in the Unit 2 Startup Test program because the Unit 2

jet pump adapters are identical to the prototype (Tokai-2) this change allows for the collection of certain vibration data during the preoperational test program.

Appropriate changes have also been made to Figure 14.2-2.

Table 14.2-121 The performance of this test during the section activation between 62% and 85%

power will yield more meaningful data for purposes of extrapolation to higher power levels.

Table 14.2-114 During the performance of the Unit 1 Startup test program certain expansion data was collected during the non-nuclear heatup associated with STP-34.

Because STP-34 has been deleted in the Unit 2

Startup Test Porgram we are requerting permission to use expansion data collected during the non-nuclear heatups which have taken place during the performance of the O(

Unit 2

preoperational test program.

. Figure 14.2-2 The performance of STP-5 at Test Condition 1 has been deleted from the Unit 2 Startup Test Program as a result of the deletion of STP '8 (reference FSAR Question 423.8) STP-5 is nerformed in conjuction with a plannet scram at the particular test condition.

With the deletion of STP-28, there are no planed scrams at Test Condition 1,

hence the deletion of this test.

The performance of STP-8 has been deleted from the Unit 2 Startup Test Program (reference FSAR Question 423.8) hence the deletion on the Figure.

The performance of STP-28 has ben deleted from the Unit 2 startup Test Program (reference FSAR Question 423.8) hence the deletion on the Figure.

The performance of STP-27 st Test Condition 6 has been deleted from the Unit 2 Startup Test Program (reference FSAR Question 423.8) hence the deletion on the Figure.

The performance of STP-34 has been deleted from the Unit 2 Startup Test Program because Unit 2 is identical to the prototype hence the deletion on the Figure.

The superscript "2"

for STP-31 at Test Condition 2 has been eliminated.

Scram timing is not possible during the loss of offsite power as the required equipment has no power source.

The remainin0 changes to the Figure are related to the Reactor Recirculation Flow Control System modes applicable during the performance of STP-23.

We feel the changes as shown are more applicable to the testi7g which occurs at the particular test condition.

. It is requested that you confirm the acceptibility of these i

changes by telecon so that they may be incorporated into an amendment to the FSAR.

PURPOSE 7e obtain vibration measurements on the jet pumps to confErm the mechanical integrity of the system with respect to-flo a induced vibration and _c verify the accuracy of the analytica11 vibration model.

"( <..

DaSCRIPTION s

.s During operatica, the reactor structure may be forced _;to many modes of vitraticns.

Previcus vibraticn measurements f or internal structurec of similar design indicate that des tructive s

level vibrations will nct occur.

Since the LSCS Unit" 1 jet pump adapter is a unique design, which dif fers from the prototype (Tokai-2 ), and which may introduce different jet pump vibration characteristics f rom that of the ump pair is to be instrumented as described p roto type, one jet e p mp configuration is identical to

-below. --The--LSCS - U ni-t 2 jet u

that of the prototype (Tokai-2) an d, hence, no instrumentation is plann ed.

Sixteen internal sensors will be used for LSCS Unit 1:

a.

Four strain gauges on riser braces (loc.ation identical to the prctetype).

b.

Four strain gauges at 900 intervals on each jet pump adapter, below the shrcud support plate.

Two piercelectric accelerometers mounted just below c.

the slip joint en each diffuser.

This test program is in additien to that defined by the flow induced vibration test performed prior to startup (see Table 14.2-45).

The start 6p test will consist of a cold ficw test with the reacter vessel at pressures up to 1000 psig and fully loaded, followed by hot power tests performed with the system at normal coeratinc pressure and temperature.

During the vibration test v'ibratio5 ' amplitudes and f'requencies cbtained frem the sensors will be'menitored and recorded.

The measured amplitudes and frequencies are then ccmcarec to the acceptance criteria to assure that all measured vibration amplitudes are within acceptable levels.

LSCS-FSAR AMENDMENT 26 OCTOBER 1977 QUESTION 423.8

" Identify the major transient tests that w'ill only be conducted for one unit or commit to.rovide an amend-ment to your application identifying these transients at least 9 months prior to fuel loading for NRR review and approval.

(Reference page 14.2-17)"

RESPONSE

The startup tests that are to be conducted on Unit 1 only(N are the Control Red Sequence Exchange Startup Test, the. U' Shutdcwn from Outside the Main Control Room Startup Test, and the turbine trip from 100%. power portion of the Turbine c*ng Valve Trip and Generator Load Reiection Startup Test.

Upon successful demonstration of a method for control roc -

sequence exchange at the maximum power level (20%-40%) at which it will be permitted, the results will be applicable to Unit 1.

Attention is then focused on power distribution and available margin on thermal limits prior to.pplying Unit 1 test results to ? nit 2.

The demonstration of an orderly shutdown from outside the main control room is to be -conducted on Unit 1.

Because thd~l]5i F 2'rbdiots shutdown panel is identical and based on

^~

its preoperational test results, it is not necessary to

^

perform a live chutdown from outside the main control room once the procedure has been established on Unit 1.

The logic and circuit verification test thoroughly validates this equipment in its preoperation1 test series.

If the turbine stop valve and/or control valve' trips on Unit 2 at low and intermediate power levels are co.mparable to those on Unit 1, the high-power trip-on Unit 2 will be extrapolated from the results of the high-power trip on Unit 1.

If the Unit 2 trips at low and intermediate power levels are not comparable the high-power trip will be per-formed on Unit 2.
