INSERT "A" The surveillance requirements of Technical Specification 3/4.8.1 are based upon, in part, the guidance of Generic Letter 94-01, " Removal of Accelerated Testing and Special Reporting Requirements for Emergency Diesel Generators From Plant Technical Specifications," Genenc Letter 93-05, "Line-Item Technical Specifications Improvements to Reduce Surveillance Requirements for Testing During Power Operation," Regulatory Guide 1.9,
" Selection. Design, Qualification, and Testing of Emergency Diesel Generator Units Used as Class 1E Onsite Electrical Power Systems at Nuclear Power ~ Plants," Revision 3, and NUREG-1431,
- Standard Technical Specifications - Westinghouse Plants." Also, the guidance of NUMARC 87-00, " Guidelines and Technical Bases for NUMARC Initiatives Addressing Station Blackout at Light Water Reactors," Revision 1, and Regulatory Guide 1.160
- has been adopted to formulate a comprehensive Emergency Diesel Generator Reliability Program.
Technical Specification 3.8.1.1, Action b and c, require, in part, the demonstration of the operability of the remaining operable emergency diesel generator by performing Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2a.4. This test is required to be completed regardless of when the inoperable emergency diesel generator is restored to operable status unless the emergency diesel generator was declared inoperable to do preplanned preventative maintenance, testing, or maintenance to correct a condition which, if left uncorrected, would not affect the operability of the emergency diesel gaaerator. The requirement to test the remaining operable emergency diesel generator when one emergency diesel generator is inoperable is limited to those situations where the cause for inoperability can not be conclusively demonstrated in order to preclude the potential for common mode failures. The test is not required to be accomplished if the emergency diesel generator was declared inoperable due to an inoperable support system or an independently testable component. When such a test is required, it is required to be performed within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> of having determined that the emergency diesel generator is inoperable.
Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2a.4 is considered to be a " Start Test" as described in Regulatory Guide 1.9, Revision 3. A " Start Test" is performed to demonstrate proper startup from standby conditions and to verify that the required design voltage and frequency is attained.' For these tests, Regulatory Guide 1.9, Revision 3, recommends that the emergency diesel generators be slow started and allowed to reach rated speed on a prescribed schedule that is selected to minimize stress and wear.
Regulatory Guide 1.9, Revision 3, considers Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2a.5 to be a " Load-Run Test". A " Load-Run Test" demonstrates 90 to 100 percent (5580 to 6201 kilowatts) of the continuous rating (6201 kilowatts) of the emergency diesel generator for an interval of not less than 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and until temperature equilibrium has been attained. This test may be accomplished by synchronizing the generator with offsite power and the loading and unloading of an diesel generator during this test should be gradual and based on a F40:ribed schedule that is selected to minimize stress and wear on the diesel generator.
Regulatory Guide 1.9, Revision 3, considers Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2b to be a ?=st-Start Test". A " Fast-Start Test" demenstrates that each emergency diesel generator starts from standby conditions. If a plant normally has in operation keep warm systems designed to maintain lube oil and Jacket water cooling at certain temperatures or prelubrication systems or both, this would constitute normal standby conditions for that plant. Verification that the emergency diesel generator reaches required voltage and frequency within acceptable limits and time is also required.
The requirements of the " Single-Load Rejection Test" and the " Full-Load Rejection Test" as described in Regulatory Guide 1.9, Revision 3 have been combined. The " Full-Load Rejection Test" is a demonstration of the emergency diesel generator's capability to reject a load equal to 90 to 100 percent of its continuous rating (5580 to 6201 kilowatts) while operating at a power factor between 0.8 and 0.9 and that the voltage does not exceed 4784 volts and that the frequency does not exceed 65.4 Hertz following a load rejection of 5580 to 6201 kilowatts. The frequency criteria is from the " Single-Load Rejection Test" and is based on nominal en ine s I 75 reent of
'"=p between_nomingsgeed and the ovelspeed trip setDoint in a i on, through a pl nt ure, the ESW pump starting transient during the LOCA sequehci6g Test, Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2.g.4.d, will be demonstrated to be within a minimum voltage of 4784 Vac and recover to 4320 Vac within 3 seconds and to be within a maximum voltage of 4784 Vac and recover to 4320 Vac within 2 seconds. This acceptance criteria is based on Regulatory Guide 1.9 Revision 3, section 1.4 and past trending *of ESW pump starting The note that will not allow a surveillance requirement to be performed in Modes 1 or 2 is based on the improved Standard Technical Specifications (NUREG-1431) which recognizes that the performance of certain surveillance requirements during operation with the reactor critical could cause perturbations to the electrical distribution systems that could challenge continued steady state operation and, as a result, unit safety systems. However, this note does not preclude operating the emergency diesel generator with the reactor entical, as necessary, to support operational conditions.

. 1 to WO 96-0037 Page 7 of 8 INSERT "B" DIESEL FUEL OIL TESTING PROGRAM in accordance with Technical Specification 6.8.4, a Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Program to implement required testing of both new fuel oil and stored fuel oil shall be established. For the intent of this specification, new fuel oil shall represent diesel fuel oil that has not been added to the Diesel Fuel Oil Storage Tanks. Once the fuel oil is added to the Dieset Fuel Oil Storage Tanks, the diesel fuel oil is considered stored fuel oil, and shall ineet the Technical Specification requirements for stored fuel oil.
Tests listed below are a means of determining whether new fuel oil is of the appropnate grade and has not been contaminated with substances that would have an immediate detnmental impact on diesel engine combustion, if results from these tests are within acceptable limits, the new fuel oil may be added to the storage tanks without concem for contaminating the entire volume of fuel oil in the storage tanks. These tests are to be conducted pnor to adding the new fuel to the storage tanks, but in no case is the time between receipt of the new fuel oil and conducting the tests to exceed 30 days. The tests, limits, and a b
TM stand rds being used to evaluate the conditic.n of new fuel oil are:

By venfyin_ _ __ _ _ _,,,e tests specified in ASTM D975-81 pnor to addition to the storage tanks that the sample has:
a)
An API Gravity of within 0.3 degrees at 60 *F or a specific gravity of within 0.0016 at 60/60 *F. when compared to the supplier's certificate or an absolute specific gravity at 60/60 'F or greater than or equal to 0.83 but less than or equal to 0.89 or an API gravity of greater than or equal to 27 degrees but less than or equal to 39 degrees; b)
A kinematic viscosity at 40 *C of greater than or equal to 1.9 centistokes, but less than or equal to 4.1 l
centistokes, if gravity was not determined by compenson with the supplier's certification; c)
A flash point equal to or greater than 125 'F; and d)
A water and sediment content of less than or equal to 0.05% when tested based on ASTM D1796-83.
Failure to meet any of the above limits is cause for rejecting the new fuel oil, but does not represent a failure to meet the Limiting Condrtion for Operation of Technical Specification 3.8.1.1 since the new fuel oil has not been added to the j
diesel fuel oil i
Within 30 days following the initial new fuel oil sample, the fu[ oil is analyzed to establish that the other properties specified in Table 1 of ApTM D975-81 are met when tested ;C ; i ASTM D975-81 except that the analysis for sulfur may be performed seestHm ASTM D1552-79, ASTM D2622-82, or ASTM 04294-90. An exception to ASTM D129, which is specified in ASTM D975-81, has been taken. ASTM D129 uses a Banum precipitation method for the determination of sulfate after oxidation has occurred. The use of any wet lab sulfate analysis is acceptable since the I
determination is made in the aqueous nnte water for the oxidation process. In the event the correct fuel oil properties s
l are not met. Action g provides an additional 30 days from the time that it is determined that the correct fuel oil properties are not met to meet the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Program limits. The additional 30 day penod is acceptable because the fuel oil properties of interest, even if they are not within limits, would not have an immediate effect on emergency diesel generator operation. The diesel fuel oil surveillance in accordance with the Diesqti Fuel Oil Testing Program Il ensure the availability of high quality diesel fuel oil for the emergency diesel generators. f g.;.ba We du.or o.m e i

At lease once every 31 days, a sample of fuel oil is obtainad from the storag tanks M___ -, ASTM D2276-83. The particulate contamination is venfied to be less than 10 mg/ liter when checked t = r, ASTM D2276-83, Method A. The filter size for the determination of particulate contamination will be 3.0 micron instead of 0.8 micron as specified by ASTM D2276-83. The filtered amount of diesel fuel oil will be approximately one liter when possible. Also, it is acceptable to obtain a field sample for subsequent laboratory testing in lieu of field testing.
Fuel oil degradation during long term storage shows up as an increase in particulate, due mostly to oxidation. The presence of particulate does not mean the fuel oil will not bum properly in a diesel engine. The particulate can cause foulang of filters and fuel oilinjection equipment which can cause engine failure.
l The frequency for performing surveillance on stored fuel oil is based on stored fuel oil degradation trends which indicate 1
that particulate concentration is unlikely to change significantly between surveillances.
