BASES 1

3/4.9.12 AND 3/4.9.13 SPENT FUEL POOL BORON CONCENTRATION AND SPENT FUEL J

ASSEMBLY STORAGE i

The requirements for spent fuel pool boron concentration specified in Specification 3.9.12 ensure that a minimum boron concentration is maintained

]

in the pool. The requirements for spent fuel assembly storage specified in Specification 3.9.13 ensure that the pool remains subcritical.

The water in i

the spent fuel storage pool normally contains soluble boron, which results in large subcriticality margins under actual operating conditions. However, the l

NRC guidelines based upon the accident condition in which all soluble poison l

l is assumed to have been lost, specify that the limiting k,, of 0.95 be 1

evaluated in the absence of soluble boron. Hencethedeslgnofthespentfuel i

storage racks is based on the use of unborated water, which maintains the spent fuel pool in a subcritical condition during normal operation with the pool fully loaded.

The double contingency principle discussed in ANSI l

N-16.1-1975 and the April 1978 NRC letter (Ref. 4) allows credit for soluble boron under other abnormal or accident conditions, since only a single

'1 accident need be considered at one time.

For example, the most severe j

accident scenario is associated with the accidental misloading of a fuel l

assembly. This could increase the reactivity of the spent fuel pool. To mitigate this postulated criticality related accident, boron is dissolved in the pool water.

Tables 3.9-1 and 3.9-2 allow for specific criticality analyses for fuel which does not meet the requirements for storage defined in these tables.

l These analyses would require using NRC approved methodology to ensure that i

k s0.95 with a 95 percent probability at a 95 percent confidence level as d,,s,cribed in Section 9.1 of the FSAR. This option is intended to be used for e

fuel not included in previous criticality analyses.

Fuel storage is still 4

limited to the configurations defined in TS 3.9.13.

The use of specific analyses for qualification of previously unanalyzed fuel includes, ut is not l

limited to, fuel assembly designs not previously analyzed which may ue as a l

result of new fuel designs or fuel shipments from another facility.

Currently j

analyzed fuel designs include the Babcock and Wilcox MkBW design, and the j

Westinghouse Standard and Optimized fuel designs. Another more likely, and expected use of this specific analysis provision would be to analyze movement j

and storage of individual fuel pins as a result of reconstitution activities.

fuel of the maximum permissible reactivity for a given configuration.

Since the data presented in Specification 3.9.13.a and 3.9,13.b represents the maximum reactivity i

requirements for acceptable storage, substitutions of less reactive components 1

would also meet the k s0.95 criteria. Hence an empty cell, or a non-fuel component may be subsITtuted for any designated fuel assembly location.

These, or other substitutions which will decrease the reactivity of a particular storage cell will only decrease the overall reactivity of the spent l

fuel storage pool.

ASSEMBLY STORAGE (Continued)

If both restricted and unrestricted storage is used, an additional criteria has been imposed to ensure that the boundary row between these two configurations would not locally increase the reactivity above the required limit.

i i

The action statement applicable to fuel storage in the spent fuel pool requires that action must be taken to preclude the occurrence of an accident t

or to mitigate the consequences of an accident in progress. This is most 1

efficiently achieved by immediately suspending the movement of fuel assemblies.

Prior to the resumption of fuel movement, the requirements of the j

LCOs must be met. This requires restoring the soluble boron concentration and the correct fuel storage configuration to within the corresponding limits.

This does not preclude movement of a fuel assembly to a safe position.

The surveillance requirements ensure that the requirements of the two LC0's are satisfied, namely boron concentration and fuel placement.

The boron concentration in the spent fuel pool is verified to be greater than or equal j

to the minimum limit. The fuel assemblies are verified to met the subcriticality requirement by meeting either the initial enrichment and burnup 3

requirements of Table 3.9-1 and 3.9-2, or by using NRC approved methodology to s0.95.

By meeting either of these requirements, the analyzed ensurethatk,7ullyaddressed.

The fuel storage requirements and restrictions discussed here and applied

{

in specification 3.9.13 are based on a maximum allowable fuel enrichment of i

5.0 weight % U-235. The enrichments listed in Tables 3.9-1 and 3.9-2 are nominal enrichments and include uncertainties to account for the tolerance on the as built enrichment. Hence the as built enrichments may exceed the i

enrichments listed in the tables by up to 0.05 weight % U-235. Qualifying burnups for enrichments not listed in the tables may be linearly interpolated between the enrichments provided. This is because the reactivity of an j

assembly varies linearly for small ranges of enrichment.
