The FPCCS consistsoftwofuelpooljcooling systems (one for each unit); the fuel pool cleanup systems for both units are separate from the cooling systems. Each fuel pool cooling system services the new and spent fuel storage pools associated with that unit. Each FPCCS contains two fuel pools cooling trains, each train containing a heat exchanger, strainer and fuel poolfcoolingpumpwitheachpump capable of being manually Loaded onto a separate emergency power supply, in case of Loss of offsite pnwer. Each cooling train is a 100% subsystem, servicing both the new and spent ~ f uel storage pool id 'that unit. t 1 The cleanup system.s contain two fuel pootg scimmer pumps, 4 two domineralizers, filters and skimmers for alL the pools (including the cask loading pool in Unit 1), skimmers for the transfer canals and two fuel poo(g and ' water purification pumps.

o _ g s-9.2.2 Comoonent Coolina Water System (Reactor Auxiliary Co.'.ine Water Systems) The component cooling water (CCW) system was reviewed in accordance with Section 9.2.2 of the Standard Review Plan (NUREG-0800). An audit review of each area Listed in the " Areas of Review" portion of the SRP section was performed according to the guidelines provided in the " Review Procedures" ( - -~ portion of the SRP section. Conformance with the acceptance criteria, except as noted belows formed the basis for ars evaluation of the component cooling water system with respect to the applicabte regu-L&tions' of 10 CFR 50. The component cooling water (CCW) system serves as an i ntermediate closed cooling water system between radioactive or potentially radicactive systems and the nonradioactive service water system. The CCW system rejects its heat via the station service water system (refer to Section 9.2.1 of this SER) to the auxiliary and main reservoirs 'and cooling towers comprising the ultimate heat sink (discussed in Section 9.2.5 of this EER).

. - ~ ~ 4 minimizes the possibility of Leakage of radioactive material into the environment. Each unit has its own CCW system; thus, General Design Criterion 5, " Sharing of Structures, Systems, and Components, does not apply. The Component Cooling Water System provides cooling for t?.e following heat sources: a. reactor coolant pump motor bearing oil cooler; b. reactor coolant pump thermal barrier-c. Letdown heat exchanger mical and c.L.une Control. s ); .s Syrt?m k 'mical and Volume k d. seal water .: exchanger LCne k k Control Systsm); e. excess etdown eat exchanger (Chemical and M Volume ntrol.,_ -';.Sp h y heat.r.emoval pumps ( M f. residual Residual Heat ) g oval M tem); g. residual heat exchangers idual at emoval -4 ^ b h. recycle evaporator package (Soron Recycle System); OC. i. reactor coolant drain tank neat exchanger (Waste ocessing tem); m

i ~9r-g J. spent fuel pool heat exchanger (Spent el Pool A S Cooling and Cleanup $A System); k. sample heat exchangers (Process Fampling sy~stes); and k L. oss failed fuel detector (Process Sampling S y,s t e m). The applicant noted that the safety-related heat loads included only the RHR pumps $3 tem c) RHR heat "~~ exchangers (((temg) and spent fuel pool heat exchangers Z+e[ e 6.. ~ The CCW. system con,tains two separate trains each containing a component cooling heat exchanger. There are three component cooling pumps for the two trains. Two pumps are operated during cooldown with each pump supplying hatf of the total CCW flow. Normal operation &&Ly requi.'es one pump with another I on standby; in the event of a LOCAr only one pump is required but two CCW pumps starts to assure cooling flow to the safeguards pumps in the eyent of a single failure. The motor-operated valves and pump: in one train are connected to one emergency power on % Sr* (s supply while thevalvesandpumpfa~re connected to

t NGw another power supply. The third pump has a dual i breaker arrangement so that if it is needed to replac1 a failed pumps it can be connected to the same power supply a4 the pump it replaces or to the same power supply as the operating pump. Interlocks are provided so that the third pump cannot be connected to both redundant circuits, simultaneously. Thus, cooldown can be achieved with two pumps even with a single active failure. The CCW system contains a surge tank on the suction side of the pumps. This tank sitL accomeadate an increas,ed system water volume resulting from thermal ~~ expansion and/or inteakage from components being cooled and to provide CCW system makeup in the event of smaLL system Leaks. The surge tank is separated into two parts by a baffle to permit operation of one train in the e,v,ent of a failure of part of the surge tank. Inteakage may be detected by an increase in the surge tank level or as an increase in radiation level (if from.a radioactive source). The two trains are connected downstream by a crossover with four l motor operated valves; these are closed wher. i llT. nS A necessary to maintain train separation. .l. a i l ^ - ~ ' ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ - ~ -

t i In'sortfh ~ ~ Thus, the two trains are isolated and the CCW system wilL have one operable train (in the event of a failure in the other train) or i two operable CCW pumps (in the event of a pump failure). This wiLL be sufficient to provide cooling to a single train of the safety-related heat loads requiring cooling by the CCW. This complies e**** e e 8,e e s g e 9 a ee O e G e 4 7. s

No further action is required until a residual heat removal (RHR) heat exchanger is required to cool the reactor coolant in order to establish the post-LOCA recirculation phase. In that events the remaining nonessential safety-related heat toads would be isolated manually. However, we noted that this manual isolation would include the isolation of the spent fuel pool heat exchanger. In response to our concern regarding the spent fuel pool the applicant noted that the fuel pool load would 0 6 be reduced from 38.3 x 10 to only 18.2 x 10 BTU /HR because a LOCA in Unit 1 would not be expected to occur simultaneously with the need to completely unload the Unit 1 core. In that cases the applicant states that 5600 gpm would be required for the RHR heat exchanger. The flow remaining from one operating CCW train (3550 gas) would be sufficient to keep the Unit 1 spent fuel pool at a temperature of 150*F or less. The applicant noted that, after isolating the spent fuel pool heat exchanger, the operator would have approximately 4.5 hours time in which to disconnect the nonsafety-related loads on the same header as the spent fuel pool before the water in the spent fuel pool temperature reached 150 F (12 hours before the water started boiling).

An audit review of each of the areas Listed in ~ the "Araas of Review" portion of the SRP section.was performed,&ccording to the guidelines provided in the i' Review Procedures", portion of the SRP section. Con-formance with the acq[)ptance criteria formed the basis ~ ~ ~ for our evaluation of the essential services chitled water system with respect to the applicable regulations of 10 CFR 50. The ESCWS Eonsists of two redundant trains, A and 5, for each unit. Each train consists of a package water chiller, an expansion tank, a chemical addition tank, and a chitled water pump together with associated piping. The servica water system (see Section 9.2.1 of the SER f or di s cus siem of the service water system) suoplies water for the condenser section of the water chiller during normal and emergency conditions. The expansion tank a,c'ommodates system volume changes, maintains positive pressure on the system since it is located abeve the chitled water pump ano is used to 4 ;,-. ll l$ C 0 }f - Ef f. '

An audit review of each of the areas listed in tne " Areas of Review" portien of the SRP section was performed according to.the guidelines provided in the "Rev,iew Precedures" portion of the SRP section. Conformance with the acceptance criteria formed the basis fer our evaluation of the auxiliary feedwa'te. system with respect to the applicable regulations of 10 CFR 50. The design f the a xiliary feedwater syste. was reNiewed in acc dance with S. 0.4.9 (NURTGP 00). Confo. a n,c'e ith th acce tance cri ria ormed t. basis for -he staff e untion of the sign of t e auxi iacy fee at e system ith re pect to -h appli-ble regulat'ons f 10 CFR Pa. 50. The staff reviewed t,b.e auxiliary feedwater system ( A F'J S ) against the specific acceptance criteria of SRP 10.4.9 as folLows: (1) GDC 2 as re ated to structures housing the system and the system itself being capable of w1thstanding the effects of earthquakes. Acceptability is base.d, on meeting Position C.1 of RG 1.29 for safety-related portions and position C.2 for nonsafety-6 l

' - D g, ~ related portions. (2) GDC 4 with respec': to st uctures housing the system and the system itself being capable of withstanding the ef fects of external missiles and internally generated missilis, pipe whip, and j et impingement A. forces associg:ed with pipe breaks. The basis for acceptance for this criterion is set forth in SRP A YfdSW 3.5 and 3.6. (3) GDC 5 as related to the capacility of shared systems and components important to safety to perform required sarety functions. (4) GDC 19 as related to the cesign capability of system instrumentation and con:rets f o'r','p r o m p t hot shut. gown of the reactor and potential capability for subsequent cold shutdown. Acceptance is based on meeting BTP RSS 5-1, with regard to cold shut-down from the control room using only safety-related ecuipment. (5) GDC34and44k.toensurethe capability to transfer / heat loads from the reactor system to a heat sink unoer both normal operatirg and accident cenditiens; redundancy of components so that under accident conditions the safety function can be performed assuming a singlcactive component failure (this may, be coincident with the loss of offsite power for T. e + .,-.,,-,.,a

4 s, certain events); and th'e capab'iLity t'o isoL'te a components, subsystems, or piping if required so that the system safety function wiLL be maintained. (6) GDC 45 as related to design provisions made to permit periodic inservice inspection of system components and equipment (7) GDC 46 as related to design provisions made to permit apprcpriate functional testing of the system and components to ensure structural integrity and-Leaktightness, operability and per-fermance of active components, and capability of the integrated system to function as i ntended during normal, shutdown, and accident conditions. The following evaluation discusses the implementation of these acceptance criteria and foilows the order of SRP 10.4.9 (NUREG-0800). This evaluation also incer-perates the staff review of the apolicant's respense to NUREG-0737 Item II.f.'1.1. This includes (1) ao evaluation against the deterministic criteria of t h e *dEE Man $ As d eVi e.w/ IAU (2) an evaluation against the generic recommendations of NUKEG-0611 (3) the evaluation of system reliability based on the applicant's reliability study ( ,,.,.9.# ,..e., .s .m,- _.,,.mm.- ,m
