} In addition to the limits on temperature of the suppression pool water, J

operating procedures define the action O be taken in the event a safety-relief ,

valve inadvertently opens or sticks open. As a minimum this action shall include: (1) use of all available means to close the valve, (2) initiate suppression pool water cooling, and (3) if other safety-relief valves are used to depressurize the reactor, their discharge shall be separated from that of the stuck-open safety reifef valve, where possible, to assure mixing and uniformity of energy insertinn tn m ynl.

The cu,r;ainment sp ay system consists of two 100% capacity loops, each with three spray rings located ai. dif ferent elevations about the inside circum ference of the contair.eent.

The suppression , e' s oling function is a mode of the RHR systes and functions as part of tne containment heat removal system. The purpose of the E ( system is to ensure containment integrity following a LOCA by preventing exces-5 sive containment pressures and temperatures. The suppression pool cooling mode is designed to limit the long term bulk temperature of the pool to 185'F con-sidering all of the post-LOCA energy additions. The suppression pool cooling trains, being an integral part of the TutR system, are redundant, safety-releted component systems ti.at are initiated following the recovery of the reactor p vesse' water level by ECCS flows from the RHR system. Heat rejection to the emergency service water is accomplished in the RHR heat exchangers.

The suppression pool make-up system provides water from the u90er containment pool to the suppression pool by gravity flow through two 100%

capacity dump lines following a LOCA. The quantity of water provided is sufficient to account for all conceivable post-accident entraument volumes, ensuring the long term energy sink capabilittes of the suppression pool and maintaining the water coverage over the uppermost drywell vents. Daring refueling, there will be administrative control to ensure the make-up dump valves will not be opened.

, 3/4.6.4_ CONTAINHENT ISOLATION VALVES The OPERABILITY of the containment isolation valves ensures that the containment atmosphere will be isolated from the outside environment in the evant of a release of radioactive material to the containment atmosphere or pressurization of the cont.ainment and is consistent with the requirements of GDC 54 through 57 of Appendix A to 10 CFR 50. Containment isolation within the time limits specified for those isolation valves designed to close culo matically ensures that the release of radioactive material to the environw nt E will be etasistent with the assumptions used in the analyses for a LOCA.

Vecuum breakers are provided on the containment to prevent an excessive vacuum from developing inside containment during an inadvertent or improper operation of the containment spray. Four vacuum breakers and their associated isolation valves are provided. Any two vacuum breakers provide 100% vacuum relief.

The containment vacuum relief system is designed to pr rtt.JLrj.. excessive vacuum from being created inside the containment following, dvertent) initiation of the containc,ent spray system. By maintsinin MUsfature/

relative humidity within the limits for-acceptable operation shown on Fig-ure 3.6.5.21, the maximum containment vacuum created by actuation of both containment spray loops will be limited to approximately -0.7 psig. ,

3/4.6.5.3 DRYWELL VACUUM BREAKERS

-Orywell vacuum breakers are provided on the drywell to prevent drywell ficoding due to differential pressure across the drywell and to equalize pres-sure between the dr}Nell and containment.

Any one vacuum breaker can provide full _va:uum relief capability.

3/4.6.6 _ SECONDARY CONTAINMENT Secondary containment is designed to minimize any ground level release of radioactive material which may result from an accident.

Establishing and maintaining a vacuum in the annulus with the annulus exhaust gas treatment system, along with the surveillance of the doors, hatches, and valves, is adequate to ensure that there are no violaticas of the integrity of the secondary containment.

The OPERABILITY of the annulus exhaust gas treatment systems ensures that sufficient iodine removal capability will be available in the event of a LOCA.

battery was sized, total battery terminal voltage on float charge, connection resistance values and the performance of battery service and discharge tests ensures the effectiveness of the charging system, the ability to handle high discharge rates and compares the battery capacity at that time with the rated capacity.

Table 4.8.2.1-1 specifies the normal limits for each designated pilot cell and each connected cell for electrolyte level, float voltage and specific gravity. The limits for the designated pilot cells float voltage and specific gravity, greater than 2.13 volts and not more than .015 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity or a battery charger current that had stabilized k' at a low value, is characteristic of a charged cell with adequate capacity.

The normal limits for each connected cell for float voltage and specific grav-ity, greater than 2.13 volts and not more than .020 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity with an average specific gravity of all the con-nected cells not more than .010 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity, ensures the OPERABILITY and ctpability of the battery.
