- At all times
- During waste gas holdup system operation.
- 0perability is not required when discharges are positively controlled through the closure of WDG-V47, and RM-A8 and FT-151 are operable.
ACTION 25 With the number of channels OPERABLE less than required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirement, the contents of the tank may be released to the environment for up to 14 days provided that prior to initiating the release:
1.
At least two independent samples of the tank's contents are analyzed, and 2.
At least two technically qualified members of the Unit staff indepencently verify the release rate calculations and verify the discharge valve lineup.
3.
The Manager Unit 1 shall approve each release.
Otherwise, suspend release of radioactive effluents via this pathway.
ACTION 26 With the number of channels OPERABLE less than required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirement, effluent releases via this pathway may continue for up to 28 days provided the flow rate is estimated at least once per 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.

RADIDACTIVE EFFLUENTS EXPLOSIVE GAS MIXTURE LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION 3.22.2.5 The concentration of oxygen in the Waste Gas Holdup System shall be limited to less than or equal to 2% by volume whenever the concentration of hydrogen in the Waste Gas Holdup System is greater than or equal to 4% by volume.
APPLICABILITY: At all times.
ACTION:
Whenever the concentration of hydrogen in the Waste Gas Holdup System is greater than or equal to 4% by volume, and:
a.
The concentration of oxygen in the Waste Gas Holdup System is greater than 2% by volume, but less than 4% by volume, without delay begin to reduce the oxygen concentration to within its
- limit, b.
The concentration of oxygen in the Waste Gas Holdup System is' greater than or equal to 4% by volume, immediately suspend additions to waste gas to the Waste Gas Holdup System and without delay begin to reduce the oxygen concentration to within its limit.
BASES:
Based on experimental data *, lower limits'of flammability for hydrogen is 5%
and for oxygen is 5% by volume. Therefore, if the concentration of either gas is kept below its lower limit, the other gas may be present in higher amounts without the danger of an explosive mixture. Maintaining the concentrations of hydrogen and oxygen such that an explosive mixture does not occur in the waste
~
gas holdup system provides assurance that the release of radioactive materials will be controlled in conformance with the requirements of General Design
~
Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR 50.
