ATTACHMENT February 28,1985 3USTIFICATION FOR CONTINUED OPERATION GENERAL ITEM (Common to Units-I and 2)

Upgrade of Qualification Files (Auditability)

==

Description:==

NRC Inspection Report No. 50-317/84-27. dated January 29, 1985 stated

. that the qualification files were not in an auditable form as required by Paragraph (j)

. of 10 CFR 50.49. To facilitate compliance with the auditability requirement, three activities are being implemented to upgrade the files: (1) a technical review of each file' to verify completeness and to provide convenient summary information in the front of each file, (2) reorganization of each file into a standard format for ease of reference, and (3) implementation of the record control and storage requirements of

ANSI N45.2.9 (refer to BG&E QA audit report No. 84-24-01).

Extension Request:

An extension is requested until November. 30, 1985, to complete the

_ qualification file upgrade.

Technical Discussion Continued operation during ' the interim period is justified because sufficient documentation currently exists in the files to support environmental qualification for all previously qualified equipment. The purpose of the file upgrades

-is to provide for ease of auditability by regulatory personnel.

3USTIFICATION FOR CONTINUED OPERATION UNIT I MODIFICATIONS Component Numbers, Model, Locations and Descriptions 1.

Replace solenoid valve ISV 5178, currently an ASCO HT 8320, with an ASCO NP8320 which is fully qualified. This valve is located in Room A228 and is used on the ECCS pump room air cooler water outlet path.

2.

Complete the qualification of ISV 516 and 517 by either rerouting conduit to the valves or installing Raychem or Conax termination seals to preclude water entering j

the valves. - Both valves are pilot solenoids on air operated valves and both are located inside containment. lSV 516 is on the containment isolation valve in the

-letdown path. ISV 517 is on the containment isolation valve in the auxiliary spray

-path.

Both valves are currently ASCO.Model WPHTX8320A21V but are being replaced with ASCO Model NP8320A185E due to a replacement parts problem with

Technical Discussion and Extension Request:

All of the above modifications will be completed prior to startup following the upcoming Unit I refueling outage. The outage is currently scheduled to commence on April 5,1985. This means the plant will be operating for approximately 5 days beyond the equipment qualification deadline of March 31, 1985, established in 10 e,.

CFR 50.49, paragraph (g). We feel that the probability of a design basis accident occurring between now and the outage is extremely ' low.

We are, therefore, requesting an extension'to perform all of the above listed modifications during the Unit I refueling outage scheduled for April 5,1985.

' Location:

- Auxiliary Building - Room A321 Model Number (s):

Current - Honeywell BZE6-2RQ2 Replacement - Namco EA180-24302

==

Description:==

Limit switches ZS~1585 A & B and ZS 1593 A & B are used on valves CV 1585 and 1593, respectively, which are the isolation valves in the service water outlet from containment cooler numbers 2 and 4.

' Technical Discussion:

The subject limit switches were formerly classified as non-safety related but have been upgraded to a safety-related, status. The existing Honeywell limit switches will be replaced with qualified Namco limit switches.

CV 1585~ and 1593 are normally closed, fall open valves which open on a containment spray actuation signal (CSAS). The solenoid operators for thece valves, SV 1585 and 1593 are qualified. The limit switches provide indication only. Should the currently installed limit switches fall post-LOCA, at worst, they may indicate that the valves did not open. Therefore, the operators will be made aware that the subject limit switches are currently unreliable and that the affected valves are qualified and. will be in 'their safe position post-LOCA.

Additionally, the operator can verify that the valves are open by checking the -

service water flow to the four coolers with flow transmitters FT 1584 and 1592.

These flow transmitters have been physically upgraded and are qualified with the exception of the qualification documentation,.which has not yet been updated to reflect this design change due to' design document revision lag times.

This analysis meets the criteria of 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (1), items (1) and (5).

Based on the above, continued operation is deemed justified.

- Extension Request:

The subject limit switches are located in a high radiation area outside containment. Thus, the changeout cannot be made prior to an outage. Therefore, per 10.~ CFR 50.49, paragraph (g), an extension is requested to perform the replacement during the scheduled Fall 1985 Unit 2 refueling outage, based on the above 3CO.'

==

Description:==

Pressure switches PS 4042, 4044, 4047, and 4049 are used on the hydraulic actuators of the main steam isolation valves (MSIVs), CV 4043 and 4048, and function to maintain the design pressure in the actuator accumulators by controlling the hydraulic pump.

Technical Discussion:

The subject pressure switches are all in harsh environments, but for different accidents. Switches in Room A203 are subjected to high radiation post-LOCA while switches in Room A408 are subjected to high temperature post-MSLB.

However, the justification for all is the same.

The pressure switches monitor the pressure of the hydraulic fluid in the MSIV accumulators and start the high pressure pump when the pressure drops below 4075 - psig. Once the pump has reestabilished the design pressure, the pressure switches deenergize it.

The pressure switches have no direct function in the opening or closing of the MSIVs. They are present only to keep the MSIVs ready to close. The MSIVs close on low steam line pressure (SGIS), which would result from an MSLB and on high containment pressure (CSAS), which would result from a LOCA. Seconds after either accident has occurred the MSIVs will receive a signal to close and will stroke closed within 6 seconds. The pressure switches will have already performed their design function and are not required to function after MSIV closure. Thus, failure of the subject pressure switches at any time following the start of the accident will not prevent the MSIVs from closing nor will it cause them to reopen. Additionally, the pressure switches provide no indication so there is no chance an operator can be misled.

This analysis meets the criteria of 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (1), item (4).

Based on the above, continued operation is deemed justified.

Extension Request:

Due to the critical safety function of the main steam isolation valves it is highly undesirable to perform modifications on them while at power. Therefore, per 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (g), an extension is requested to perform the modification during the scheduled Fall 1985 Unit 2 refueling outage, based on the above JCO.

The new parts required for the modification are currently on-site.

Component Number (s): 2SV 6540A through 6540G Location (s):

Containment - Room C229 Model Number (s):

Valcor V526-5295-77

==

Description:==

SV 6540 A through F are solenoid operated containment isolation valves in the sample supply lines to the hydrogen analyzer. SV 6540G is a solenoid operated containment isolation valve in the hydrogen analyzer sample return line. All of the subject valves are located inside containment.

Technical Discussion:

Qualification of these valves is not yet complete as a moisture seal must be installed at the conduit to valve connection in order to make the field installation consistent with the tested configuration.

The subject valves were originally Dragon Model 10180-1. Since the valves are containment isolation valves they came under the equipment qualification (EQ) program.

The EQ review of the Dragon valves determined that there was not sufficient qualification documentation available on the valves to consider them qualified. Therefore, the Dragon valves were replaced with qualified Valcor valves. The valves were judged to be qualified after the replacement, without the moisture seal, since their only function was to remain closed post-LOCA and all postulated failure modes left the valves in the closed position. At this time the hydrogen analyzer system was classified non-safety related. In response to NUREG-0737 the hydrogen analyzer system _was reclassified safety-related and a new, qualified hydrogen analyzer was installed. Additionally, the subject valves qualification status changed in that they are now required to reopen post-LOCA. The equipment qualification review of the new hydrogen analyzer system and the subject valves was completed in October of 1984.

It was this review that verified that moisture seats were required on the subject valves. Since the last refueling outage for Unit 2 was around June of 1984 it has not yet been possible to fully qualify the subject valves with the addition of the termination seal. The seal will either be a Raychem termination seal series NEIS or the Patel conduit seal.

All of the. subject valves are normally closed, fall closed valves and are normally -

de-energized. They are all remote manually controlled. Failure of the valves post-LOCA due to the harsh environment will leave them in the closed position, which is safe from a containment isolation standpoint. Failure of the valves will a:so leave the operators with no method of monitoring the post-LOCA containment hydrogen concentration, as required by NUREG-0737. Therefore, administrative controls will be implemented which instruct the operators to start the quallfled hydrogen recombiners following a LOCA. It has been verified that the hydrogen recombiners can maintain the containment hydrogen content at a safe level regardless of the size of the LOCA.

Each valve is equipped with two limit switches which are subject to the same failure mode. Should the limit switches indicate that the valves are closed there is no problem as the valves will be closed and the operators will be aware that the hydrogen analyzer. cannot be used. Should the limit switches indicate any or all of the valves are open the operator will be able to ascertain that no samples are

-being taken by checking the instrumentation and indication from the hydrogen analyzer.

This analysis meets the criteria of 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (i), items (3) and (5).

Based on the above, continued operation is deemed justified.

Extension Request:

The subject valves are inside containment, at an elevation requiring extensive scaffolding in order to perform the modification. Thus the seal addition cannot be performed non-outage. Therefore, per 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (g), an extension is requested to perform the modification during the scheduled Fall 1985 Unit 2 refueling outage based on the above JCO. The Raychem materials required for the modification are currently on-site.

Component Number (s): SV 103,104,105,106 Location (s):

Containment - Room C229 Model Number (s):

Target Rock 790U-001

==

Description:==

The subject solenoid valves are isolation valves in the reactor coolant system vent paths. SV 103 and 104 are in the reactor head vent path to the quench tank. SV 105 and 106 are in the pressurizer vent path to the quench tank.

Technical Discussion:

The subject solenoid valves and the vent paths which they serve were added to the plant as a post-TM1 " Lessons Learned" fix.

The paths serve to vent non-condensible gas generated during a LOCA from the reactor coolant system to the quench tank. Qualification of these valves is not yet complete as a moisture seal must be installed at the conduit to valve connection in order to make the field installation agree with the tested, qualified installation.

The subject valves are normally closed, fail closed and are normally de-energized. The valves are all remote manually controlled. Each is equipped with two limit switches for position indication.

During the qualification test on these valves, performed by Target Rock, the seal at the conduit to valve connection degraded and allowed borated water spray into the valve. The seal used in the test was rubber cement which is not as effective as a qualified Raychem termination kit seal, series NElS, or the newly developed Patel conduit seal. In spite of the seal failure allowing water into the valve during the test, the valve and its limit switches still performed normally, stroking open and closed.

On the basis of these test results, as detailed in Target Rock Report No. 2375, dated 9/26/79, it is judged that the subject valves would remain operable post-LOCA. It is agreed that sealing the valve is desirable, therefore the Raychem seals shall be installed during the next outage.

This analysis meets the criteria of 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (i), item (2).

Based on the above, continued operation is deemed justified.

Extension Request:

The subject valves are located inside containment in areas of high radiation.

Thus, the seal addition cannot be performed non-outage. Therfore, per 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (g), an extension is requested to perform the modification during the scheduled Fall 1985 Unit 2 refueling outage based on the above JCO. The materials required for the modification are currently on-site.

Limit switches ZS 4043 A & B and ZS 4048 A & B are located on the main steam isolation valves CV 4043 and 4048.

Technical Discussion:

The subject limit switches were formerly classified as non-safety related but have been upgraded to a safety-related status. The existing Namco limit switches will

- be replaced with qualified Namco limit switches.

CV 4043 and 4048 are normally open valves which close on a SGIS and CSAS. The solenoid operators for these valves, SV 404.3 and 4048, are fully qualified. The limit switches provide indication only.

Should the currently installed limit switches fait post-LOCA, at worst, they may indicate that the valves did not close.

Therefore, the operators will be made aware that the subject limit switches are currently unreliable and that the affected valves are qualified and will be in their safe position post-LOCA.

This analysis meets the criteria of 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (1), items (1) and (5).

Based on the above, continued operation is deemed justified.

Extension Request:

The subject limit switches are located outside containment, however, due to personnel protection concerns the valve must be taken out of service to perform the changeout Neither MSIV can be taken out of service during operation.

Therefore, per 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (g), an extension is requested to perform the replacement during the scheduled Fall 1985 Unit 2 refueling outage, based on the above 3CO.

The subject limit switches were formerly classified as non-safety related but have been upgraded te a safety-related status. The existing Honeywell limit switches will be replaced with (Jz.lified Namco limit switches.

CV 3828 and 3839 are normally closed, fail open valves which open on a SIAS. The solenoid operators for these valves, SV 3828 and 3820, are qualified. The limit switches provide indication only. Should the currently installed limit switches fall post-LOCA, at worst, they may indicate that the valves did not open. Therefore, the operators will be made aware that the subject limit switches are currently unreliable and that the affected valves are fully qualified and will be in their safe position post-LOCA.

This analysis meets he criteria of 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (1), items (1) and (5).

Based on the above, continued operation is deemed justified.

Extension Request:

The subject limit switches are located outside containment and can be replaced during normal operation. However, there is a parts delivery problem and it is not known at this time what the delivery schedule will be. Therefore, per 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (g), an extension is requested to perform the replacement during the scheduled Fall 1985 Unit 2 refueling outage, based on the above 3CO. Should the required parts become available prior to this, the replacement will be made as soon as possible.

==

Description:==

The subject terminal blocks are used on safety related instrumentation inside and outside containment in harsh environments.

Upon receipt of IE Information Notice 84-47 Calvert Cliffs performed a review of safety related terminal bhicks and determined which terminal blocks might be subject to the deficiencies detailed in the Notice.

The subject terminal blocks comprise the list of potentially deficient terminal blocks. These terminal blocks will be modified with either a ring / tongue heat shrink seal or an inline splice, both of which employ qualified Raychem seal kits.

Technical Discussion:

We are confident that the subject terminal blocks will perform adequately in a post-accident environment based on the existing qualification test reports.

However, since there is some question as to the validity of these tests, Calvert Cliffs is performing the terminal block modifications in order to preclude any further questions on the qualification of the subject terminal blocks.

At this time no other justification is deemed necessary as NRC's formal position on the matter has not been presented to the utilities. The information presented in IE Notice 84-47 appears to be preliminary in nature as it is based on a single series of tests by Sandia described in NUREG/CR-3418.

- Based on the above, continued operation is deemed justified.

Extension Request:

Of the subject terminals blocks, those inside containment are all in high radiation areas and as such cannot be modified non-outage. The two blocks in Room A428 i

are associated with the steam generator atmospheric dump valves and due to the valves' highly critical safety function it is deemed undesirable to modify them l
