1 REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS i BASES 6042 gallons of 20,000 ppm borated water from the boric acid storage tanks or R144 82,082 gallons of 2500 ppm borated water from the refueling water stora.ge tar.k. With the RCS temperature below 200 F, one injection system is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable reactivity ' condition of the reactor and the additional restrictions prohibiting CORE ALTERATIONS and positive reactivity change in the event the single injection system becomes inoperable. The boron capability required below 200'F, is sufficient to provide a SHUTDOWN MARGIN of 1% delta k/k af ter xenon decay and cooldown f rom 200 F to 140 F. This condition requires either 835 gallons of 20,000 ppm borated water gg44 from the boric acid storage tanks or 9,690 gallons of 2500 ppm borated water from the refueling water storage tank. The contained water volume limits include allowance for water not available because of discharge line location and other physical characteristics. dl$MA The limits on contained water volume and boron concentration of the RWST also ensure a pH value of between 7.5 and 9.5 for the solution recirculated within containment after a LOCA. This pH band minimi:es the evolution of fodine and minimizes the effect of chloride and caustic stress corrosion on mechanical systems and components. The OPERABILITY of one baron injection system during REFUELING ensures that this system is available for reactivity control while in MODE 6. p s - n -- y~ h 3/4.1.3 MOVABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES , The specifications of this section ensure that (1) acceptaDie power distri-bution limits are maintained, (2) the minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN is maintained, and (3) limit the potential effects of rod misalignment on associated accides. analyses.

The maximu..i expected borttien capability requirement occurs at EOL from full power equilibrium xenon conditions and reNires 6042 gallons of 20,000 ppm borsted water from the g13 2 boric acid storage tanks or 82,082 gallons of 2500 ppm borated water from the refueling water storage tank. , With the RCS temperature below 200*F, one injection system is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the additional restrictions prohibiting CORE ALTERATIONS and positive reactivity changes in the event the single injection system becomes inoperable. The boron capability required below 200 F is sufficient to provide a SHUTDOWN MARGIN of 1% delta k/k after xenon decay and cooldown from 200*F to 140 F. This condition requires either 835 gallons of 20,000 ppm borated water , from the boric acid-storage tanks or 9,690 gallons of 2500 ppm borated water R1; j from the refueling water storage tank. j M The contained water volume limits include allowance for water not available because of discharge line location and other physical j characteristics. The limits on contained water volume and boron concentration of the RWST BR also ensure a pH value of between 7.5 and 9.5 for the solution recirculated within containment after a LOCA. This pH band minimizes the evolution of

iodine and minimizes the effect of chloride and caustic stress corrosion on mechanical systems and components. The OPERABILITY of one boron injection system during REFUELING ensures that this system is available for reactivity control while in MODE 6. 3/4.1.3 MOVABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES The specifications of this section ensure that (1) acceptable power distribution limits are maintained, (2) the minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN is main-tained, and (3) limit the potential effec.ts of rod misalignment on associated accident analyses. OPERABILITY of the control rod position indicators is required to determine control rod. positions and thereby ensure compliance with the control rod alignment and insertion limits. _ 1 V Fo A TH e Re em in.sme ers OF Tne Boe Arson; 5ysTrM Fww & rus (.5pcc/nu/rous 3 1.1.1 A n>o 3.1. 2. 2 ) TH e tu s ac, i m c Pu m ps 6 te Rep egoucen roa ruv As C LAks r s C A Tiom OnLf hvo Do TQor A F F CCT Fi.sco Pai,1 OPER ABluTy' REG u term wr.5 For Cu nRG/n/c Pu me OPCR A B it. tty kr Apore.sse Se9A RATuy 6f S P ccI ricA rtoms 3.1,2. 3 tien 3.

             -Tennessee Valley Authority: proposes to modify the Sequoyah Nuclear Plant                                                    4 (SQN) Units 1 and 2 Technical Specifications'(TSs) to revise-                                                              )

Sections 3.1.2.4 and 3.5.2 to extend the allowed outage-time (A0T) for'the i charging pumps. A bases clarification is included for reactivity control > systems to clarify that operability.of the charging pumps is addressed by l TS 3.1.2.3 and 3.1.2.4, not by the flow path specifications requirements. _) v t _ Reason for Change i SQN recently experienced a rotating element failure of one centrifugal [ charging pump,(CCP). The repair duration for this failure exceeded the i present 72-hour A0T in the-TSs'but was completed within the proposed 7-day - l A0T. Unit shutdown was' required by TSs, which were complied with to

             -accommodate the CCP repairs. Failures of high head injection pumps that                                                       '

require greater than 72 hours to be repairs have been observed in the -[ nuclear industry. ' Unit: shutdown necessitated by such repairs is not [ justified if a longer A0T will not significantly impact nuclear safety.- l For=these reasons, SQN is pursuing a TS change to implement a 7-day A0T .!

              -for inoperability of one CCP. This will increase plant availability as                                                       ;

opposed to performing unnecessary plant shutdowns.  ! , - - 1 Justification for Change.  ! f The nuclear safety impact of going from a 3-day A0T to a 7-day A0T for one [ inoperable CCP 'has been evaluated by Westinghouse Electric Corporation and I documented in Westinghouse Letter TVA-91-120 to TVA dated April 23, 1991 l (Enclosure 4). This Westinghouse evaluation has utilized a probabilistic r risk analysis'(PRA) approach to support extending the CCP A0T. .For this  ! PRA the maximum A0T of 3 days or 7 days was used in place of an average - l out!-of-service time as used in;the SQN Individual _ Plant _ Evaluation Report  ! I base case. issued for publication through the Nuclear Management and'  !

             -Resources Council on August 9, 1988, to Industry Degraded Core Rulemaking,                                                    !

               -charging pumps are utilized to prevent core damage.           This determination                                            [

With the identification of events i requiring CCPs, unavailabilities.were determined for one CCP out of i service. This unavailability, along with the availability of each train i of support systems, was used to determine the unavailabilities for high l pressure injection associated with small and medium break LOCAs as well as  ! for loss of component cooling water and for high-pressure recirculation [ f or all recirculation required events. + l i

f requency increases of 1.3SE-08/ year fot fsmall break LOCA sequences,  ! 9.50E-09/ year for medium break LOCA sequences, and 7.80E-09/ year for loss of component cooling water sequences combine for c total increase of fr 3.11E-08/ year. The total core damage frequency for all sequences is I 2.93E-05/ year for_the base case in-the IPE and is the same for the 3-day

                                                                                                                ~

. s s ENCLOSURE 3 Significant Hazards Evaluation TVA has evaluated the proposed technical specification (TS) change and has determined that it does not represent a significant hazards consideration based on criteria established in 10 CFR 50.92(c). Operation of Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN) in accordance with the proposed amendment will not:

1. Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident prev!ously evaluated.

The centrifugal charging pumps (CCPs) provide emergency core cooling and reactor boration contrnl f unctions. These functions provide accident mitigation functions as well as nakeup for the reactor coolant system (RCS). However, these functions are not considered the initiation of any postulated design basis accident. Therefore, this change to the CCF A0T will not increase the probability of an accident. As shown in Westinghouse Electric Corporation Letter TVA-91-120 to TVA dated April 23, 199L (Enclosure 4), the increase of 3.11E-08/ year in core damage frequency for the CCP allowed outage time (A0T) being increased from a 3-day A0T to a 7-day ACT is insignificant. The probabilistic risk analysis (PRA) methodology used in this Westinghouse evaluation applied the CCP unavailabilities for a 7-day A0T to the event fault trees to determine the core damage frequency effect. The 3.llE-0S/ year frequency increase is only 0.11 percent of the 2.93E-05/ year overall core damage f requency for accident sequences. The increase is insignificant, and therefore increasing the A0T for CCPs to 7 days does not significantly increase the consequences of an accident.

2. Create the possibility of a new or dif ferent kind of accident from any previously analyzed.

Since the CCPs provide RJ4 makeup and accident mitigation functions, the generation of or chat - .n an accident type by the CCPs being out of service is not credible. Therefore, an increase for the CCP to a 7-day A0T will not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident.

3. Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

An increase from 3 days to 7 da*s f for the CCP A0T does net change any of the functions or the conditions that will require the operation of the CCPs. The only impact is the time allowed for one CCP to be out of service without requiring unit shutdown. While the CCPs are in service, they will operate under normal and emergency conditions without change as assumed in the safety analysis. The change to a 7-day CCP ACT will result in an insignificant increase in core damage frequency. Therefore, this change does not involve a significant reduction in any margin of safety.

The applicable marked-up Technical Specification sections are also provided. 1,1 Technical Specification Bases Explanation and Justification Relaxation The primary function of the Safety injection System (SIS) is to provide emergency core coeling (ECC) in the event of a toss-of-Coolant Accident (t0CA) resulting from a break in the primary Reactor Coolant System (RCS) or to  ; provide emergency boration in the event of a Steamline Break accident resulting from a break in the Secondary Steam System. > The SIS is designed to provide borated water to the RCS to insure that the  ! applicable criteria are satisfied assuming that both a loss of offsite power

  • and single failure may occur coincident with a postulated accident.

The primary function of the reactivity control system (flow paths) is to , provide plant shutdown capability. The bases for this system is tied to GDC-26, For 10 CFR part 50, Appendix A, GDC-26 requires "Two independent , reactivity control systems of different design principles shall be provided.  ; One of the systems shall use control rods.,,". The second system "shall be capable of reliably controlling the rate of reactivity changes from planned, normal power changes (including xenon burnout) to assure acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded. One of the systems shall be capable of holding the reactor core suberitical under cold conditions." , Per the Standard Technical S)ecifications (STS), if a component is found to be - inoperable, it will be possible in most cases to effect repairs and restore the  ! system to full operability within a relatively short time. For a single component to be inoperable does not negate the ability of the system to perform i its function but it reduces the redundancy provided in the reactor design and thereby limits the ability to tolerate additional equipment failures. The i roquirement to place the reactor initially in the hot shutdown condition l provides for reduction of the decay heat from the fuel and consequently a i reduction of cooling requirements after a postulated loss-of-coolant accident. This also permitted improved access for repairs in some cases. The limiting times to repair are based on two considerations: , i

1. Assuring high reliability that the safeguard system will function  ;

properly if required to do so, and, [ t

2. Allowances of sufficient time to ef fect repairs using safe and proper
procedures, l
         *   . Page 2 of 29 l-Historically, failure to complete repairs within the specified time of going to           l the HOT SHUTDOWN condition is considered indicative of a requirement for major o               maintenance, and therefore, in such a case the reactor is to be put into the l               COLD SHUTDOWN condition.

E ! There is a technical approach that can be used to justify extending the allowed l outage time (A0T) for the ECCS fluid system from 72 hours to 7 days. The probablistic risk assessment arguments (PRA) can demonstrate that the safeguard system will still maintain a high level of reliability to function if required to do so. Since it can be demonstrated that the A0T required by the STS does not sllow sufficient time to complete maintenance procedures that are important for plant continued operation, the relaxed A0T will provide time for more thorough and effective equipment maintenance, This increase, in turn, will improve plant safety and increase the plant availability by reducing unnecessary plant shutdown. As an example of precedent, Byron Station has performed this relaxation. Diablo Canyon is now in the process of making these Technical Specification changes. Per Technical Specifications 3.1.2.4 and 3.5.2 at least one charging pump must i be operable or the plant is placed into Tecii Spec 3.0.3. Technical Specification 3.1.2.2 addresses operable flow paths for emergency boration. The Technical Specifications for operability of the CCP are 3.1.2.3 and 3.1.2.4. Therefore no relaxation is needed for 3.1.2.1 and 3.1.2.2 to ensure flow path operability. I 1.2 Probabilistic Risk Analysis The Sequoyah Individual plant Evaluation (IPE) reports a base case core damage frequency analysis for Sequoyah Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2. An average A0T is l used for components in this analysis as they are not expected to always be out j of service for the maximum allowed time. For the analyses reported in this document, an average out of service time is not used. Instead, the out of service time for the charging pumps is assigned the upper bound of allowable time (3 days or 7 days). l l a l

SUMMARY

The following steps were performed to evaluate the impact of changing the A0T for Sequoyah units 1 and 2:

1. Determine all sequences where the charging pumps are called upon to prevent core damage,
2. Requantify the fault trees used in step 1 with one charging pump removed,
3. Develop equations to incorporate changing A0T times,
4. Quantify the event trees with an A01 of 3 days,
5. Quantify the event trees with an A0T of 7 days.
6. Compare the core damage frequencies for an A0T of 3 days and 7 days.

The results of these analyses are shown in summary tables for each of the dominant sequences evaluated for a change in the A0T for charging pumps, by each initiating event and the dominant core damage sequences for three cases: an A0T of 3 days, an A0i of 7 days, and the base case used in Reference 1. The total core damage frequency from all initiating events is 2.93E-05/ year for each of the cases (from Tables 5 through 8). Some of the dominant sequences  ; for the small LOCA, medium LOCA and loss of component cooling water initieting events increased. The change in each sequence is summarized in Table 4. The increase in core dainage frequency is due to an increase of J.38E-8/yr (small LOCA, failure of recirculation), 9.5E-9/yr (medium LOCA, failure of high pressure injection) and 7.8E-9 (failure of the charging pumps following a loss , of component cooling water). The sum of all sequences for each of these i initiating events are-4 Initiating Event A0T Core Damage Frequency Percent of Total Core (For Given initiating Damage Frequency  ; (For Given initiating Event) Event) Small LOCA 3 days 1.09E-05/ year 37.2  :' Small LOCA 7 days 1.09E-05/ year 37.2 Medium LOCA 3 days 1.77E-06/ year 6.0 Medium LOCA 7 days 1.78E-06/ year 6.1 Loss of CCW 3 days 1.96E-08/ year 0.1 Loss of CCW 7 days 2.74E-08/ year 0.1 By changing the A0T from 3 days to 7 days, the increase in core damage frequency is 3.lE-08/ year. The total increase in total core damage frequency , is 0.11 percent ((3.1E-8/2.93E-5)x100]. This is not a significant change as it does not contribute to the overall core damage frequw.cy. Therefore, the results of the probabilistic analysis shown that changing the A0T for a charging pump from 3 days to 7 days does not impact plant risk. r

5. High pressure recirculation is addressed on success of high pressure  !

One of the two residual heat removal pumps (RHRPs) and one  ! out of four high pressure injection pumps are required to continue recirculation, i It should be noted that the steam generator tube rupture and main h steamline/feedline breaks were not addressed in Reference 1. However, the , success criteria for high-pressure injection would be the same as for the small- . LOCA for both of these events. ECCS recirculation is not initially required  ! for either event, therefore, changing the A0T time for the charging pump would l l not impact either of these events.

The availability of the supporting systems (AC and DC power, essential raw cooling water, and component cooling water) define these support states. All support systems are available in support state I so that both trains of all systems depending on these support states are also available. Only 1 train of support systems are available in support state 2 and 5 so that only 1 train of each system depending on these support states are available. One train of essential raw cooling water is available but component cooling water is not available in support state 3 so that only the CCPs are available for reactor coolant pump seal cooling. Neither high pressure injection nor recirculation would be available in support states 4, 6, 7 and 8 because of the combinations of unavailabilities of the. supporting systems. 3.1 Fault Tree Analysis - The emergency core cooling system's high pressure injection and recirculation fault trees (Reference 2) were altered to simulate the unavailability of one CCP during its allowed outage. The unavailability of the CCP during its A0T was simulated by its removal from the fault tree models. It was assumed that i

        -the pump would be properly isolated during the outage; therefore, the isolation                                 ;

valves for the CCP in question were removed from the model as well. These fault trees were then requantified with one CCP removed. The original fault tree models and quantification output developed during the Sequoyah IPE are used as the base case, The original base case assumptions  : were also used. These base case fault trees, quantification results, and assumptions were obtained from Reference 2.

Case A involved the removal from  ! service of CCP 1A A; Case B involved the removal from service of CCP IB-B. The appropriate CCP, and its respective isolation valves, were removed from the i fault trees listed in Table 1. These new fault trees were then re-quantified. Columns 4 and 5 of Table 1 summarize the quantification results of Cases A and # B, re pectively. Note that not all base cases changed. This is because some of the base cases already assumed entire train failures. For example, fault tree HPIS_SLA modeled the unavailability of the ECCS to mitigate a small LOCA . if train A electric )ower was unavailable. Hence, CCP 1A-A is already removed ' from the tree, and tie base case results will not change for Case A. The common cause calculations from the base case (see column 3 of Table 1) are used as a conservative estimate of common cause failure rates. Removing a pump , from service will actually decrease total system common cause dependency, i because the common cause normally associated with that pump and its complement will be removed. The total system unavailability, i.e., random plus common cause unavailability, for Case A and Case B is given in columns 6 and 7, respectively, of Table 1. 3.2 Unavailabilities for Event Tree Analyses The unavailabilities shown in Table 1 are used to quantify the event trees. These unavailabilities depend on the support state. As shown in Table 1, these unavailabilities are calculated for several conditions. The results of the fault tree analyses for HPIS_SLA, HPIS_SLB, HPIS_MLA, HPIS_MLB are used in ' support states 2 and 5. If a charging pump is out of service in support states ' 2 and 5. only one train of high pressure injection (HPI) or recirculation (HPR) would be available. There is a 0.5 probability that train A would be available and a 0.5 probability that train B would be available. Therefore, the -l unavailability of HPI or HPR is calculated as: , 0.5 (probability train A not available) + 0.5 (probability train 8 not . available).  : a 9

Table 4 shows the increase in core damage frequency  ; calculated for each of the sequences which are impacted by changing the A0Ts ' for the charging pumps. The sequence number, core damage frequency calculated  ; for a 7 day A0T and a 3 day A0T and the increase in core damage frequency by ' changing from a 3 day A0T to a 7 day A0T are given in the table. The total increase over all sequences is 3.11E-08/ year. The total core damage frequency was calculated for 3 cases: 3 day A0T, 7 day A0T and the base case. The total core damage frequency is 2.93E-05/ year for each of the cases. i Tables 5, 6, and 7 list the dominant sequences for each of the case's. The core i damage frequency, percent of core damage frequency, the plant damage state, ' event tree identifier and event tree sequence and failed top events (nodes) are

                                        ~

shown in these tables. Table 8 shows the core damage frecuency per year calculated for each initiating -! event. The total core damage frequency, parcent contribution, conditional , probability and the frequency of the initiating event are shown on this table ' for each initiating event evaluated in Reference 1. The results are shown for an A0T of 3 days, 7 days and the base case (with an average outage time of  ; about 18 hcurs). The sum of all sequences for small LOCA and medium LOCA and  ; loss of co.nponent cooling water are:  ;
