CALLANAY PLANT - UNIT 1 PRIMARY COOLANT SOURCES OUTSIDE CONTAINMENT 4

This defines Union Electric's program to reduce leakage f rom 2

those portions of systems outside containment that could contain highly radioactive fluids during a serious transient or accident to as ' low as practical levels.

The systems considered include the recirculation portion of the Containment Spray System, Saf ety Injection System, Chemical and Volume Control System, and RHR System.

The program is as follows:

l '.

Preventive maintenance and periodic visual inspection requirements:

PROGRAM:

One aspect of the P.M. program is the periodic replacement of valve packings, pump seals,_and flange gaskets based on service life.

This service lif e is based on both maintenance history and visual inspections.

Maintenance supervisory personnel perform periodic walkdowns of accessible systems.

One objective of these walkdowns is to identify and correct leakage.both f rom recirculation systems and other secondary systems.

Operations, via their normal duties and responsibilities, also walk-down and visually inspect accessible systems.

Identification and correction of leakage is one of the criteria l

specified for these walkdowns.

2.

Integrated leak test requirements for each system at refueling cycle intervals or less:

PROGRAM:' Callaway is committed to ASME Section XI, 1980, for commercial operation.

Section' XI requires VT-2 examinations on Class 2 systems during

^

!~

each inspection period.

For Callaway, this j

amounts to a VT-2 visual examination for L

leakage on all recirculation systems every 3 to

[

4 years.

In addition, Operations performs leakage i

testing on ' all recirculation systems with

(-

systems at operating pressure.

This is

[

accomplished per written procedure on a j

refueling frequency.
