s' Enclosure - 2 3/4 3-45 Table 3.3.5-1 For initiation of RCIC, the number of minimum operable channels per trip system should be increased from 2 to 4 for Reactor Vessel Water Level Low Low Level 2. This change is needed to conform to plant design. 3/4 6-29 Table 3.6.4-1 MP&L letter AECM-83/0540 of September 12,
- 1983, identified 12 penetrations with associated containment isolation valves that should have been pneumatically tested but were tested hydrostatically.
MP&L committed to test those valves pneumatically the next time and to request appropriate changes to the TS. We should take action to correct these TS i deficiencies. MP&L letter AECM-83/0592' of September 20, 1983, to NRR identified 18 containment isolations that were pneumatically tested when the TS calls for hydrostatically testing them. Region II feels this is conser-vative since pneumatic testing is a more sensitive method; however, this is a deviation from their TS. The status of this item should be reviewed with the licensee to insure that the TSs are correct and that they were met. Notes (c) and (d) on page 3/4 6-29 appear to be identical and so both are not needed. 3/4 7-10 3.7.4 Our staff questions whether hydraulic snubbers and mechanical snubbers should be given separate functional test frequencies and l acceptance criteria. The bases for the sampling program for functional testing is not ~ clear. It is also not consistent with other recently approved TSs such as McGuire 2 and St. Lucie 2. We understand that MP&L has been informed recently of another sampling program TS now considered acceptable to NRR and may l revise the snubber TS in its entirity. We urge that the NRC strive for some consistency in snubber TS for.new plants and terminate the numerous revisions of the acceptable TS l standard in the interest of regulatory uniformity. r We observe that the Grand Gulf TS does not address hard to remove snubbers or the ALARA I aspect of snubbers located in high radiation I areas.

We assume that the intent is to prevent evolution of radioactive material from the pool water at elevated temperatures, as stated in the basis. It is not clear why the ACTION statement calls for reactor shutdown if the temperature limit is exceeded. We recommend that NRR confirm the intent of this specification and revise it' to clearly state the intent. If intended, there should be a statement that TS 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 do not apply. 3/4 7-46 3/4.7.10 This TS on access road embankment stability. should either be clarified or deleted. If the culvert is found to be blocked, no time frame is given in which it must be cleared. There should be a statement that 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 do not apply.

GENERAL COMMENT
S W] are aware that in response to concerns raised over isolation of instrument air during containment isolation, the licensee has committed to NRR to install a pressure gauge on the instrument air supply as it enters containment and to read it periodically. We believe that such a commitment should be either a TS or license condition and that the surveillance frequency and acceptance criteria cust be spelled out clearly, so that we can verify conformance. All matters addressed above in our specific comments have been discussed with Mr. D. Hoffman, NRR during our recent meeting of 1/23-24/84 at the Gran'd Gulf site. We feel this meeting was very beneficial and we appreciate the cooperation shawn by Mr. Hoffman in reviewing our comments on the Grand Gulf TS. During our visit we received frem the licensee a list of TS issues that they feel neid clarification or revision. Certain of those i tems we feel need prompt attention to change the TS. We have selected from the licensee's list those that wa feel need action and listed them below. e 9 8 e e S e e 9
.',/, Enclosure 6 MP&L'S TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION AREAS OF CONCERN Tech Spec Discussion: 3.5.1 Tech Spec requires at least 7 operable ADS (ECCS-Operability) valves in Division 1 and 2. However, the bases indicates that the ADS controls only 7 selected SRVs while the FSAR only takes credit for 6; thus allowing one valve out-of-service for 14 days. It thus appears that the Tech Spec should require 8 operable ADS valves since ADS controls 8 valves, not 7, and the FSAR assumes loss of one ADS valve. 4.6.6.3.d.3.c.d Surveillance deals with SGTS initiation on (SGTS Surveillance) Fuel Handling Area pool Sweep and Ventilation Exhaust Radiation High. The correct termino-logy should be radiation high-high instead of just high. 3.3.2-Table 3.3.2-1.4.h The table lists the minimum operable channels Item 4.h (Isolation Actua-per trip system as '.NA ' for RWCU isolation tion Instrumentation) from a SLCS initiation. Hence, ~the action. statements for the Tech Spec does not really apply and the channel can remain out of-service. indefinitely with no action required. This should be corrected. 1
1 ~ ' Enclosure 7 3.3.6 (Control Rod Block Inst.) The action statement requires different 3.3.7.6 (SRM) numbers of SRMs operable during same modes of 3.9.2 (Refueling Inst.), operation. 3.3.6 requires 4 SRMs during Ops. Conds. 2,5; 3.3.7.6 requires 3 SRMs during Ops. Conds. 2,3,4; while 3.9.2 requires 2 SRMs during Ops. Conds. 5. TS needs to be made consistent. 3.3.7.7 (TIP System) The Tech Spec only requires 3 TIPS operable to map the core and is required only when recalibrating LPRMs. In order to calibrate all LPRMs and map the whole core, 5 TIPS with indexing equipment is required. The TS should be changed to require 5 TIPS, or deleted. The requirement to calibrate LPRMs suffices and the TIP TS is not necessary. 3.3.6 Table 3.3.6-1.4.a The superscript (d) is not correct. The IRM -(Control Rod Black Instru-detector not full in Control Rod Block is not mentation) bypassed on range 1 of the IRMs. It is,
- however, bypas-sed when the associated detectors are bypassed or the Reactor Mode Switch is in run (LIC NS-83125).
3.6.3.3.b (Suppression Tech Spec deals with a flow path from Pcol Cooling) Suppression Pool through a SSW heat exchanger. There is no SSW heat exchanger; it should read a RHR heat exchanger. 3.3.2 All Tables (Isola-The associated Tech Spec Tables deal with tien Actuation Instrumenta-MSIV closure on HI RAD; however, MSL RAD INOP tian) also gives an MSIV closure. This is not the only case. Do all isolation signals need to be identified? (Another example is RCIC isolation high temp.) We need to closely review the RPS and is'olation systems to ensure l that all automatic functions credited in the FSAR are required by TS. 4.1.3.1.4.b (Control Rod Tech Spec surveillance verifies proper level t Oparability).

Encloqure 8 3.3.8 (CTMT and Drywell Press Tach spec sh'ould be changed to take into Setpoints) account barometric pressure influence on contai.nment pressure. Licensee has determined that installed instruments are absolute and not relative, thus changes in barometric pressure can cause nonconservative setpoints. Change needs to be made to Tech Spec concerning CTMT press initiation setpoint which may be wrong for containment spray, as identified by licensee. 4.6.7.3..b.1 (Drywell Purge) Surveillance requires reverifying a flow rate of 1000 cfm every 18 months. However, the flow rate should be considered in 'sefm since the flow rate is temperature dependent. 4.4.4.c (Chemistry) Surveillance specifies action to b'e taken in the event the continuous conductivity recording monitors are inoperable for up to 31 days. What action must be taken at the end of the 31 day INOP period. TS language should be clarified. 6.15 (Major changes What constitutes major Radwaste changes? TS Rrdwaste reporting. language should be clarified. requirements) 3.3.4.1 (Recire pump trip The associated action statements (3.4.4.1.b ATWS) and c) are not consistent with the system p design. For example, if one trip channel is l INOP, then the INOP channel is supposed to be l tripped; this action trips one recire pump. f However, if two channels are INOP (depending i on channels) then the trip system may be declared INOP and you have 72 hours to declare it operable. This is a prominent case in which.the TS was written without accurate knowledge of the actual system design. 3.4.2.1 & 3.4.2.2 (SRVs) The Tech Spec action statements seem to i address only one trip system of relief logic i and Lo-Lo set function logic. However, the plant design provides (two) redundant trip systems; hence, Tech Specs may be more restrictive than necessary. i
Enclosure 9 _ = 3.4.1.2 (Jet Pumps) Tech Spec requires Jet Pumps to be operable in Ops Conditions l' and 2; however, the jet pumps are not required to be demonstrated operable until prior to exceeding 25% thermal power per surveillance 4.4.1.2. If it is acceptable to change modes during startup and wait until 25% power to perform the surveillance, then the TS should say so. 3.4.6.1 (Re. Coolant The Tech Spec and associatsd surveillance Systcm) Pressure - requires reactor coolant system temperature Temparature Limit Curve and pressure to be in accordance with associated figures. The figure denotes RPV metal temperature. Does the statement reactor coolant system temperature address the~ monitoring of reactor coolant temperature or RPV metal temperature? Also, Figure 3.4.6.1-1 is ambiguous in that it does not label acceptable and unacceptable regions. Is BB' the B curve referred to in the TS verbage? 4.8.1.1.2.C (A. C. Sources) ASTM-D270-1975 should be ASTM-0270-1965 (Reapproved 1980). 6.10.2.1 (Records) Numbers for Table 3.7.5-1 and 3.7.5-2 are incorrect refere.nces. Should be 3.7.4-1 and 3.7.4-2. 3.4.3.2-Table 3.4.3.2-1 This item is included with the generic RCS i (RCS-Leakage) leakage spec implementation problems; however, l it includes some specific problems with the l table: t 1. RCS Pressure Isolation Valves does not address all specific valves (i.e., E12-F041 should

What is the definition of a. redundant channel in a trip i system? In addition, Tech Spec allows a channel to be in an inoperable status (during testing) without placing trip system in the tripped condition provided at least one other operable channel in the same trip system is l monitoring that parameter. What exactly does this mean? This needs clarification through- ~ out the TS. l

c 2 5. Suppression Pool and Containment Spray The inspectors compared applicable sections of the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), as-built drawings, surveillance, and operating procedures and actual plant systems to Technical Specifications (TS) associated with the suppression pool and containment spray. The following are discrepancies that were identified: a. FSAR Section 6.2.7.5 indicates that the suppression pool level indica-tion system is made up of four level detector channels, (two detector channels per division). It also indicates that each of these channels provides a high water-level alarm, low-water-level alarm, low-low-water-level alarm, as well as a signal to open suppression pool makeup valves. In actuality, there are three active level-detector. channels per division. Two channels are wide range and one channel is narrow range. There is also one additional channel per division which is only used for indication at the remote shutdown panel. Each wide range channel supplies input to their respective division's suppression pool makeup system 'in one out of two logic as well as providing a low-low-level alarm at 16'10". The narrow range channel in each division provides the divisional low-level and high-level alarms (18'5 " and 18'9", respectively). TS are written to conform to the FSAR but are not in clear agreement with the actual plant design. b. TS 3.5.3 (ECCS), 3.6.3.1 (Depressurization Systems), 3.3.7.5 (Accident Monitoring Instrumentation), and 3.6.3.4 (Suppression Pool Makeup) all relate to required operability of suppression pool and level instru-mentation. They do not recognize the difference between narrow and wide ranges and therefore do not identify what level detector channel is to be used to meet the TS. operability requirement. As a result, divisional operability is left to the interpretation of the reader in the action statements as well as in the surveillance requirements. l c. In none of the above listed TS is the level instrumentation required to initiate automatic suppression pool makeup addressed as a requirement for suppression pool operability. This is an accident mitigation function and should have an associated surveillance. It would logically follow that at least TS 3.6.3.4 (Suppression Pool Makeup) should include the wide range level instrumentation as part of its operability requirement and a surveillance should be included. In TS 3.3.7.5 (Accident Monitoring Instrumentation) only two suppression pool level detectors are required, and a seven day Action Statement applies if only one is available. In reality, it appears this should read that two wide range level channels per division are required, minimum channels operable per division is one, and if only one division is operable, then the 7-day Action Statement applies.

TS 3.6.3.1 (Depressurization Systems) and 3.3.7.5 (Accident Monitoring Instrumentation) specify suppression pool temperature requirements. g. Ther_e are actually installed 24 temperature detectors / alarms, (2 divisions with 6 pairs per division). The suppression pool is azimuthally divided into six sectors, with two pa 's (one pair per division) in each sector. By licensee designation, 12 of these detectors are used to meet TS 3.6.3.1 and the other 12 are used to meet TS 3.3.7.5. Consequently, only 12 channels undergo the channel functional test required by surveillance requ' ement 4.6.3.1.c (Depressurization Systems). 4.3.7.5 (Accident Monitoring Instru-Neither TS indicates mentation), does not require a functional test. i 's =""--*-##**sh e-*** -9*

4 which temperature channels are to be used; therefore, leaving divisional / sector operability to the interpretation of the reader in the Action Statements as well as in the surveillance requirements. In fact, surveillance requirement 4.6.3.1.c implies that you can use any 12 temperature channels as long as there are two channels in each sector. Since only 12 channels receive functional testing, only these 12 should be credited by TS. TS Table 3.3.7.5-1 apparently should state as " required number of channels" 12,2/ sector ra?5ar than the present 6,1/ sector. Then the present statement of 6,1/ sector for " minimum channels operable" would allow operation for up to 7 days in an Action Statement. It was further observed in TS 3.6.3.1 that the combining of action statements on suppression pool level and temperature instrumentation with the use o'f "and/or." was very ambiguous. h. TS 3.6.3.2 (Containment Spray) contains an error and the licensee stated that a change has been prepared to operability statement 3.6.3.2.b to indicate the use of a "RHR" heat exchanger, in lieu of a "SSW" heat exchanger (IFI 416/84-06-03). Another inconsistency in surveillance requirement 4.6.3.2.b was pointed out by the inspectors. In order to demonstrate operability of containment spray, this surveil-lance requires veri.fication that each RHR pump develops a flow of at least 5650 GPM while recirculating water through the RHR heat exchanger to the suppression pool. This is accomplished by surveillance proce-dure 06-0P-1E12-Q-0023, where the same recirculation flow verification is used to determine LPCI and suppression pool cooling operability. However, surveillance requirements 4.5.1.b.2 (LPCI) and 4.6.3.3.b (Suppression Pool Cooling) specify a recirculation flow of at least 7450 GPM. The FSAR indicates that containment. spray flow emitting from l the spray nozzles into the containment is 5650 GPM. This would imply l that a RHR pump flow capability of 7450 GPM is reduced to 5650 GPM after passing through the piping and containment spray nozzles. l Therefore, one would suspect that surveillance requirement 4.6.3.2.b (Containment Spray) should also require a RHR recirculation flow acceptance criteria of.at least 7450 GPM. At the time of the inspec-tion, the licensee was unable to provide their spray flow analysis to justify the lower RHR recirculation flow of 5650 GPM. l In regards to an inoperable train, Action statements of TS 3.5.1 (LPCI) and 3.6.3.3 (Suppression Pool Cooling) allow for seven day continued l ) operation when only one train is available. Since contai1 ment spray is more important, i.e., 5as less redundancy, action statement 3.6.3.2.a (Containment Spray) only allows a 72 hour Action period when one train is inoperable. A review of the RHR Pump c e. ability data sheets in r i surveillance procedure 06-0P-1E12-0-0023 revealed an allowance of 96 I hours to analyze test results. In essence, this allows an additional l l
4 5 96 hours possible delay to the Action periods discussed above. Licensee representatives agreed to review this matter and make appropriate changes to the surveillance procedure (IFI 416/84-06-04). 6. a. TS 3/4.6.6.2 - Secondary Containment Automatic Isolation Dampers / Valves The inspector compared the TS list of automatic valves and dampers to the licensee's surveillance procedures.- The completed results of the most recent surveillance on secondary containment isolation were reviewed to see that the valve lists and identification are compatible. Approximately 5% of the valves and dampers were examined in the plant by the inspector. No discrepancies were identified. The inspector asked licensee representatives if an actual plant walk-down had been conducted by the licensee to verify the accuracy of the TS lists of primary, diywell, and secondary valves. Licensee repre-sentatives stated that walkdowns were done at various times to resolve specific questions, but no comprehensive effort could be identified which had as its objective the verification of the TS tables. The inspector stated that, although this is not a regulatory requirement, it would seem to be a prudent action to confirm TS accuracy. Licensee representatives agreed to consider further action (IFI 416/84-06-05). b. TS 3/4.6.6.3 - Standby Gas Treatment The inspector reviewed the surveillance procedure for SGTS. The TS surveillance requirements and the implementing procedures appear adeqdate to ensure SGTS reliability. The inspector walked down the majority of the SGTS hardware in the plant to ensure that the hardware is compatible with the TS. No discrepancies were observed. l c. TS 3/4.6.7.1 - Hydrogen Recombiner l The inspector examined the two hydrogen recombiner systems installed in i the plant to ensure compatibility with the TS. The completed results l of the preoperational tests of this equipment were reviewed to ensure that the recombiners are capable of performance described in the surveillance section of the TS. No discrepancies were observed. 7. TS 3/4.8 - Emergency Power Supplies The inspectors selected several sections of the TS and the corresponding surveillance procedures for examination to verify the adequacy of the procedures and the TS as they relate to the existing equipment. The following TS and surveillance orocedures were examined and evaluated. i. I i - ~, =, . --.==z.-.

Surveillance procedure 06-EL-1L51-R-0001 appears to be inadequate in that the battery chargers are never tested at the equalizing voltage (140 VDC 1 volt). The chargers are only tested at 105 volts at 400 amperes for two (2) hours. In addition. in the battery discharge test, there is no time limitation specified for when the batteries must be recharged to full capacity (IFI 416/84-06-06). b. An apparent typographical error was found in TS~ Table 3.8.4.2-1. The B designation was omitted from valve number QSP4151898. Licensee representatives have since stated informally that the TS is correct. This will be confirmed during a future inspection. c. TS requirement 3.8.4.3 appears to be inappropriate for the way the RPS electrical power monitoring assemblies (EPAs) are designed. Two EpAs are in series which means bcth units must be operable to supply power to the RPS bus. The Action statement in the TS requiring only one (1) EPA unit to be restored to service when two are inoperative does not seem appropriate for the circumstance. There is no provision for manual bypass of the individual EPA units. Surveillance procedure 06-IC-1C71-SA-1001 appears inadequate in that it only requires testing of the EPAs that are not providing power to the Reactor Protection System (RPS) bus. The, procedure, does not assure that the EPAs associated with the normal power supply (MG sets) will be tested during the six month surveillance test as required by TS Section 4.8.4.3.a (IFI 416/84-06-07).
4 7 The NRC inspectors also performed walkdowns of the systems identified above to randomly verify that equipment described in the TS was actually installed in the plant. All equipment examined in the plant was found to be properly identified in the TS with the exception of the items discussed above. 8. ECCS Systems and Actuation Instrumentation a. TS 3/4.5.1 ECCS - Operating The requirements for ADS operability contained in paragraphs 3.5.1.a.3 and 3.5.1.b.2 were reviewed. The TS paragraphs require "at least 7 operable ADS valves". This number appears to be incorrect. The Safety Evaluation Report page 6-22 states that the ADS employs eight of 20 .SRVs. The action statement paragraph e.1 allows the operation up to 14 days' with only six ADS valves operable, and up to 12 hours With five or less ADS valves. This appears to be an unacceptable 75 (IFI 416/84-06-08). A review of the paragraph 4.5.1.b pump testing criteria was conducted. Significant inconsistencies were noted in the pump flow characteristics for the following pumps. The TS for High Pressure Core Spary requires at least 7115 gpm with 182 psid, while the SER page 6-21 states 7115 gpm with 540 psid, and the FSAR Figure 6.3-2 lists 7115 gpm with approximately 387 psid. The TS for Low Pressure Core Spray requires at least 7115 gpm with 261 psid, while the SER page 6-22 states 7115 gpm with 340 psid and the FSAR lists 7115 gpm with approximately 311.6 psid. The TS required flows appear considerably less conserva-tive than either the SER or FSAR (IFI 416/84-06-09). b. TS 3/4.3.3 Emergency Core Cooling System Actuation Isolation The inspector verified the incorporation of the following instrument surveillances of TS Tables 3.3.3-1, 3.3.3-2, and 4.3.3.1-1 into the, sy plant's surveillance program.

Due to a possible low atmospheric pressure condition around the plant, certain detectors may be as much as.5 psig nonconservative. This includes drywell pressure and containment spray. The licensee has not yet submitted all the appropriate changes at this time (IFI 416/84-06-10). 9. Drywell and Primary Containment Integ-ity An inspection was performed of the following sections of the Grand Gulf TS: i-SECTION SUBJECT pAGES 3/4 6.1.1 Primary Containment Integrity 3/4 6-1 3/4 611.2 Containment-Leakage Rates 3/4 6-2, 3, 4 s L k m..

(2) Adequacy and completeness of the surveillance' requirements. (3) Review of associated surveillance procedures and results generated by their execution. (4) Adequacy and completeness of tne Action Statements. 3 (5) Familiarity of licensee personnel with the TS and the associated hardware systems and testing requirements. The following discrepancies were identified: a. Surveillance Requirement '4.6.1.4 concerns the operability of each MSIV leakage control subsystem. Item C address the functional testing of the subsystem heaters but does not acknowledge that there are no heaters on the outboard subsystem; whereas there are four on the inboard subsystem. Section 6.7 of the FSAR reveals that no heaters are required in the outboard system, which is not. identical to the inboard system in a number of aspects. Additionally, licensee surveillance procedures accurately reflect the existing hardware configuration. Clarification of the wording of the TS will resolve the ambiguity (IFI 416/84-06-11). b. Surveillance Requirements 4.6.1.1.a requires a leak rate retest of the equipment hatch seals every time each penetration subject to a Type B test, except the containment air locks, is reclosed. This is not what was intended as it would require a retest of the equipment hatch seals following the opening of Type B pentration areas such as: (1) electrical penetrations (2). ECCS test return line orifice plate (3) fuel transfer tube
y {* 10 Surveillance Requirement 4.6.1.1.b is vague as to what must be secured in position, and how. Correction of the wording in the TS will resolve these ambiguities (IFI 416/84-06-12). 10. TS 3/4.3.2 Isolation Actuation Instrumentation TS 3/4.3.2 Isolation Actuation Instrumentation was reviewed to determine if the requirements entailed therein are clear, if the LCOs are realistic, if the channels and trip systems appear technically adequate, if there are procedures for performing the surveillances, and if those requirements can be performed. Seventeen -applicable sur'veillance procedures were analyzed for technical adequacy and incorporation of TS acceptance criteria. Ten channels and associated trip systems were analyzed through examination of electrical prints, logic diagrams,. and system descriptions for technical 1 adequacy. The review revealed that TS 3/4.3.2 appeared technically adequate, the requirements realistic, and there were procedures for performing those selected requirements reviewed. The procedures reviewed, with those exceptions to be detailed,. appeared adequate. The procedures reviewed included but were not limited to: 06-IC-1821-M-1004 06-IC-1821-M-1010 06-IC-1C71-M-0001 06-1C-1821-M-1004 06-IC-1E31-M-0003 ~ 06-OP-1000-0-0001 06-IC-1E31-M-1001 06-DP-1G33-M-0002 06-IC-1E31-M-0023 06-IC-1321-M-1003 4 ..w.m. -=*
(. ~ = 11 Of those procedures, some discrepancies were identified in operation surveillance procedure 06-OP-1000-D-0001, which entails the operations' semi-daily surveillance (channel checks) as required by TS Table 4.3.2.1-1. The item numbers, detailed below refer to the TS table specific requirement, by line number. The discrepancies are as follows: a. With regard to items 1.b through 1.g and 5.m it was observed that the procedure line item (as referred to by the TS cross reference index) does not conform to the TS requirement. This appears to be an error in the TS cross reference document. b. Line. item 63 of procedure 06-OP-1000-0-0001 stipulates a channel check ~ of slave trip unit B21-LS-693 to level instrument B21-LIS-N691 at 5 53.5". The slave trip unit referenced on the s-emi-daily surveillance sheet has undergone a station modification sucn that it no longer is slave unit to instrument B21-LIS-N691, as the procedure indicates, but now is slave to' instrument 821-LIS-N695. There are three problems associated with this issue, of serious concern. (1) The station modification was completed, according to the licensee, in December 1983; however, the procedure has yet to be changed to reflect the modification. (2) The operations staff, if they were to be following the procedure, would be noting in mode 4 that slave unit B21-LS-693 is not in alarm as it should be since the master trip unit 821-LIS-N691 is tripped and is the procedure referenced master trip for that slave. They are not noting this fact. (3) The operations staff has been ignoring the procedural requirements simply because they know the modification, discussed above, is installed and as such that slave trip unit should not be in alarm. The operations staff however, has not in the period since December initiated a procedure change to reflect the station modification. c. Further, TS item 4.3.2.1-1.f requires that a semi-daily channel check be performed on high drywell pressure, ECCS, Division 3. The TS cross reference index refers to line item 15 of procedure 06-0P-1000-0-0001 for the performance of that required surveillance. That line item number appears to test reactor vessel level 2 and 8. d. Line' items 15 and 63 (reactor vessel level 8) require a semi-daily channei check of those applicable instruments at 5 53.5". However, the instruments referred to in the procedure for those channel checks are calibrated for elevated temperatures, and in modes 4 and 5, are pegged high such that the required channel check can never be satisfactorily performed. Here again, although operations staff has known of this inadequacy, no procedure change has been implemented to resolve the ~ inadequacy, i.e., refer to an instrument which reads correctly in modes 4 and 5. ^ ~ ~ ~ m m..,,_
12 In summary, the TS (3/4.3.2) appears to be adeouate although there are some inadequacies in the implementation of the requirements. Licensee representa- -tives agreed to review and correct as necessary the semi-daily log sheet and the TS cross re'3rence document (IF1 416/83-06-13). 11. TS '3.6.4 - Containment and Drywall Isolation Valves The inspector reviewed'TS 3.6.4 " Containment and Drywell Isolation valves" and Tables 3.6.4-1 to verify that the licensee has adequately identified all primary containment and drywell penetrations and associated isolation valves and included them in the TS. In addition, the inspector reviewed the limiting condition for operation and surveillance requirement for TS 3.6.4 'to ensure that they'were appropriate and being properly' implemented by the licensee. The inspector reviewed Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Table 6.2-44 " Containment - Isolation Valve Information" anc Figures 6.2-76 thru 80 " Containment Leak Rate Test System" and compared them to TS Table 3.6.4-1, plant surveillance procedures and selected "as built" penetrations observed in the plant. No discrepancies were identified. The inspector reviewed the following plant surveillance procedures: 06-0P-1M10-M-0001 " Containment and Drywell Penetration Isol& tion Monthly Check" 06-OP-1M10-C-1001 " Containment and Drywell Penetration Isolation Cold Shutdown Check" 06-OP-1821-R-0006 " Containment, Drywell and Auxiliary Building Isolation Valves Functional Test" 06-OP-1821-C-0003 " Nuclear Boiler Valve Operability" The procedures were reviewed to determine if they adequately fulfilled the ~ associated surveillance requirements and corresponded to the TS Table 3.6.4-1 of isolation valves. Some minor discrepancies were identified and resolved. No valves were identified that were not covered by procedure or TS. The inspector toured the Unit 1 Containment and Drywell and randomly selected approximately 45 isolation valves and verified that they were included in TS Table 3.6.4-1 and plant surveillance procedures. No discrepancies were identified. The comments of paragraph 6.a and the IFI identified there also include this large group of valves. i I

The 00CM calculational method-ology and parameters for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of the subject materials are consistent with the methodology provided in Regula-tory Guide 1.109, " Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, " Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water-Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. These equa-tions also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions. The release rate specifications for todine-131, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form with half lives greater than 8 days are dependent upon the existing radionuclide pathways to man in the areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY. The pathways that were examined in the development of these calculations were:
- 1) individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposition of radionuclides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumption by man, 3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals and meat producing animals graze with consumption of the milk and meat by man, and 4) deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.

The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant generated radioactive effluents and direct radiation exceed 25 mress to the total body or any organ, except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 7:i areas. For sites containing up to 4 reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC will exceed the dose limits of 40 CFR Part 190 if the individual reactors remain within twice the dose design objectives of Appendix I, and if direct radiatior, doses from the reactor units and outside storage tanks are kept small. The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in the limitation of the annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC to within the 40 CFR Part 190 limits. For the purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from other urantun fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 8 km must be considered. If the dose to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is esti u ted to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided 'the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 have not already been corrected), in accordanca with the provisions of 40 CFR Part 190.11 and 10 CFR Part 20.405c, is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR Part 190, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in Specifications 3.11.1.1 and 3.11.2.1.

This monitoring program implements Section IV.S.2 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 and thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and the modeling of r the environmental exposure pathways. Guidance for this monitoring program is provi,ded by the Radiological' Assessment Branch Technical Position on Environ-mental Monitoring. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first three years of commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience. The required detection capabilities for environmental sample analyses are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). The LLDs required by Table 4.12-1 are considered optimum for routine environmental i measurements in industrial laboratories. It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capa-bility of a measurement system and not as an a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.

pm gg 3/4.12 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING BASES 3/4.12.2 LAND USE CENSUS This specification is provided to ensure that changes in the use of areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY are identified and that modifications to the radiological environmental monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census. The best information from the door-to-door survey, from aerial survey or from consulting with local agricultural authorities shall be used. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appen-dix I to 10 CFR Part 50. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 50 m2 provides assurance that significant exposure pathways via leafy vege-tables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/ year) of leafy vegetables assumed'in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child. To determine - this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were made:
- 1) 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce 2
and cabbage), and 2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/m, 3/4.12.3 INTERLABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM The requirement for participation in an approved Interlaboratory Comparison Program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accu-racy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed as part of the quality assurance program for environ-mental monitoring in order to demonstrate that the results are valid for the purposes of Section IV.B.2 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

The definition of UNRESTRICTED AREA used in implementing the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications has been expanded over that in 10 CFR 20.3 (a)(17). The UNRESTRICTED AREA boundary may coincide with the exclusion (fenced) area boundary, as defined in 10 CFR 100.3(a), but the UNRESTRICTED AREA does not include areas over water bodies. The concept of UNRESTRICTED AREAS, established at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY, is utilized in the Limiting Conditions for Operation to keep levels of radioactive materials in liquid and gaseous effluents as low as is reasonably achievable, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.36a. t T PWR-STS-RETS 5-1 1/4/83 ~ . _ _ _ r..,. : T T 2 r ' L .-.....
