PCN SOP 507-R6-6 to utilize the Unit 1 Reactor Makeup Water Storage Tank to supply water to Unit 1 & 2 during Normal Operation -
- Description of Change (s)i i
- The proposed activity would allow Unit 1 and Unit 2 to utilize either Reactor Makeup; !
M ter Storage Tank (RMWST) as a source of water for both units in any normal mode of ' i operation. In the event that a single RMWST is: unavailable for any reason. .both ' l units stillrequire. a clean source of Reactor Makeup Water from the remaining RMWST !
.until the affected tank can be restored to service. It is expected that by observing the operating configurations described in I.3. licensing basis l+
requirements, specifically GDC-5. for both RMWSTs 9an be met using onlyone tank to ; supple w6ter for both units. While not considered a normal operating condition, reliance on only one RMWST would allow both units to remain operational during 1 periods of a single tank outage. Summary of Evaluation ! The safety related volume requirement. . on which SSER 22.is based is identified in FSAR Section 9.2.3 as a seismic Category 1 supply of makeup water for the ; CVCS.SCH.CCW. and SF systems. This safety related volume is calculated -in I ME-CA-0241-4003 as 47000 gallons for both units. Additionally. a non safety related , requirement of 31000 gallons of Reactor Makeup Water per unit is identified in FSAR Section 9.2.3 and DBD-ME.0241. Therefore. reliance on one tank to support both l
' units would be bounded by a total volume requirement of 62000 gallons (RMWST Level ;
of 836*-1") This volume is not generated by Tech Specs nor is there a commitment
~
f to maintain this, volume at all times. No TS LCO is affected if this volume is not f available. In the event that. water level is allowed to fall below 836'-1" during I single tank operation. however, makeup should be initiated as soon as practical to restare RMWST volume. { i i i D 5 i i. t i k i

DMs 93 065?-066-8 95-079: LDCRs SA 94-044 & 95-119:'00 94-007 & 95-006 Replacement of Radiation Detectors for 1/2.RE-5100 and X-RE-5251A ; i Description of Change (s): ] Debris. and oil in the Turbine Building sump has caused Turbine Building drain radiation monitors 1+RE-5100 and 2-RE-5100 to frequently be out of service due to ! flow switch l clogging when ' obtaining an offline' liquid sample from the sumps prior to !
. discharge, Also, debris in the sample line to radiation monitor X-RE-5251A. which
- monitors discharge from Auxiliary Building Sumps 3 & 11. Unit 1 and 2 Diesel l
Generator Sump pumps ~ and component enoling water drain tank pumps, has caused sample , flow' problems that result in frequent, spurious diversion of process flow from the Low Volume Waste (LVW) pond to the Waste Water Holdup Tank (WWHT). Once aligned to ( the WWHT,' realignment to the LVW is difficult due to repeated tripping of the sample ! pump. These design modification activities . replace the radiation detector of the subject ! monitors. Tor each monitor. the current "offline" type detector is replaced with an !
" adjacent-to line" detector which eliminates the need for a flow switch, pump and !
temperature controller The new " adjacent-to-line" monitors will eliminate sampling i problems but continue to perform the same function (1. 2. . monitoring liquid effluent releases) by'providing continuous monitorf ng of the process fluid through the process pipe line. { i Summary of Evaluation l These radiation monitors 'are required for accident monitoring, are routinely used ; for liquid effluent monitoring, and are considered non-1E and non-seismic. The new
" adjacent-to-line" radiation monitors are equivalent to the "offline" monitors in that they perform the same function albeit by a different detector design. Credible potential failue modes are failure of the mounting for the new detector / shield i assembly or the introduction of the detector / shield assembly as missiles during a I seismic event or tornado. An additional failure mode associated with detector i X-RE-5251A is introduction of the related access platform / structure as a missle '
during a seismic event or tornado. Although this platform is located near some i feedwater piping, the affected portion of the feedwater system is non-safety and non seismic. A seismic event or tornado that may cause the X-RE-5251A access platform or , any new detector / shield assembly to break away from the pipe, become a missle, or l affect the Turbine Building drain line, feedwater piping. or other nearby ; components, systems or structures in the Turbine Building would not affect plant j safety since these components, systems and Turbine Building structure have been l classified as non-safety and non seismic. Due to their remote location from plant safety-related structures, systems and conponents, failure of the mounting for the 7 new detector / shield assembly would not affect the ability of the plants' I
, safety-related equipment- to perform .its safety-related functions, s

DBD-EE-041R5: CALC ME-CA-0-1093R2:LDCR SA-94-084: Revision to Credit for Adequacy of Available Volt Other than 80% of MOV Volts at its Terminal 1 De cription of Change (s): ONE form 94-869 identified that certain Class IE Motor Operated Valves (MOVs) need more than 80% rated voltage at the motor terminals to meet torque requirements, DBD EE-041 R51s being revised by DCN-8133 R0 to include the minimum voltage ! requirement for the affected Class 1E MOV motors. Calculation ME-CA-0000- 1093 R2 is being revised to evaluate the adequacy of available voltage at the MOV motor terminals. FSAR is being revised by LDCR SA-94-084 to take credit for the adequacy of available voltage, other than generic value 80% of the rated voltage at the MOV notor terminals.
' Summary of Evaluation According to the present design requirements, all safety related Class IE motors are !
designed to accelerate their driven load with 80% of motor rated voltage available ; at the terminals. A review of MOV performance based on Limitorque 10CFR21 notification (VL- 16556) and Generic Letter 89-10, has revealed that some Class IE MOVs need other than 80% of rated voltage at the motor terminals to meet their torque requirements. It has been determined per calculation ME-CA-0000-1093 R2 (with CCN 1 thru 16) that the respective MCC buses provide adequate voltage at the motor terminals of the affected MOVs to perform their functions. For all Unit 1 and 2 MOVs for which credit is taken for the presence of voltages greater than 80% of the motor nameplate voltage, the voltages are not greater than the least of the voltages calculated as being available during sequencing or other operating conditions. Also for MOV 2-8808D with a motor nameplate voltage of 480V AC, the motor starts and operates at 368V AC (ie. 76% of 480V AC). Therefore, requiring ! other than 80% of rated voltage at the motor terminals of the affected MOVs is not a concern. The above evaluation does not indicate a potential credible failure mode for the MOVs due to this requirement for higher terminal voltage. The respective MCCs provide adequate voltage at the terminals of the affected MOVs and they perform the required functions as well as do not affect the safety or function of the Class IE system. The activities do not have any effects on accidents, malfunction of l cquipment or margin of safety. Based on the results of this evaluation. l implementation of the proposed activity does not involve an unreviewed safety l Ques tion. 1

? .MM 94-106.-107.-108:. Dual Seal Retrofit to Refueling Lift Gates ~!
t
' De:cription of Change (s)5 .
f
.The three minor modifications change the inflatable seal design for. the three refueling lift gates from a single seal to a dual' seal. These gates are used in the fuel building transfer' canal and in'each containment fuel transfer- area. Minor >
modification (MM) 94106.(CP2 SFHAGT-01). MM-94-107 (CP1-SFHAGT-01). and MM-94-108 !
'(CPX SFHAGT-03); replace the er.isting reinforced rubber seal with two smaller seals , (
in series. Either seal wil'i perform the. design function independent of the other. l lThe design change will enable the lift gates to be operated similar to the pool .j swing gates which were orininally supplied with dual seals. The modifications seal l weld' the existing roll pin holes for the large ~ seal to prevent a crud trap. A l non structural metal spacer is welded in to the existing channel to provide the !
. correct channel depth for the smaller seals. New center retaining clips are j installed .in the center of the channel and new holes for seal retainer pins are. j drilled in the channel sides to hold the new seals. In lieu of roll pins. . socket ;
head cap screws are being used to aid maintenance replacemnt. The new seals are. $ similar to the origninal seals in design except they have a smaller diameter and l they are reinforced with kevlar instead of nylon. Kevlar is superior to nylon i because. it has a longer shelf life and is more radiation resistant. The new design I will ensure that no single f ailure of a seal or a pneumatic supply will result in ; loss of gate function or a drain-down event Sununary of Evaluation The modification to the gate seal design to provide dual seals will significantly , reduce the probability of a loss of gate function. A nunber of drain-down events j have occurred at various nuclear power plants which were caused by the loss of a l connected air supply. The pool . gates have dual seals which are operated with one { seal inflated and isolated by a quick disconnect so that no air supply failure can ! affect it. The other seal is connected to a continuous pneumatic supply which has a backup available if required. t The modifications have been designed in accordance with the applicable codes and ! standards 'and licensing commitments. The seismic Category I design of the gates has [ been maintained. The seismic Category I design of the storage rack has been .l
' assured. The materials have been evaluated to be suitable for their application and [
have been procured appropriately. The spacer plate and retainers are non-safety { related parts. The' seals are nuclear safety related. Therefore it was concluded l that these modifications improve safety and are in conformance with the current Licensing Basis. j r

DM 90-509. LDCR SA-94-095; Upgrade of Unit 1 Loose Parts Monitoring Syst. and Revision to FSAR Sect. 4.4.6.4 to Reflect Associated Changes
~ Description of Change (s):
The existing Unit 1 Loose Parts onitoring System (LPMS) was upgraded to a newer LPMS because the existing LPMS is obsolete and spare parts cannot be obtained to support future operation. The change required removal / replacement of the existing LPMS cabinet and installing the new system cabinet. LPMS sensors, and their locations, are not affected by this change. Summary of Evaluation The Unit 1 LPMS was upgraded with a new model system by replacing the existing cabinet and interior sub-components with a new cabinet and sub-components. The change does not affect the installed sensors and their locations. The new LPMS, like the existing system. is designed and performs to satisfy Regulatory Guide 1.133 requirements for detection of loose parts in the reactor coolant system (RCS) to avoid or mitigate safety related damage to or malfunctions of the RCS, The new system'has been seismically qualified to function following an operating basis earthquake. The cabinet is also mounted seismic category II. The cabinet and its support / anchorage are designed to sustain loads generated due to a safe shutdown earthquake, and maintain structural integrity. The new system presents no new failure modes for the plant, plant systems, or for the LPMS. This activity does not involve an unreviewed safety question.

Description of Change (s): This activity modifies the current- maintenance .and surveillance (M/S) program-
' requirements for the Emergency Diesel . Generators (EDGs). These requirements were ,
originally specified .in NUREG-1216 as- a result of the Transamerica Delaval- (TDI) diesel generator. Owner's Group Design Review /Ouality Reva11dation (DR/QR) program.
- Subsequently, substantial operational: data and inspection results have demonstrated that the special1 concerns of NUREG 1216 are no longer warranted. This activity .
results'in the EDGs being treated on a par with other EDGs within the nuclear industry and. subjected to the same standard regulations, without the special requirements of NUREG -1216. Maintenance - activities in the future will be in
;accordance with the Cooper-Enterprise Clearinghouse Preventative Maintenance Plan. - This .1ssue has been reviewed and approved by the NRC, as documented in TDI Owner's 7
Group Generic Topical ' Report, TDI-EDG-001-A. March 17, 1994. Summary of Evaluation This : activity .results in a future maintenance program in accordance with the Cooper-Enterprise Clearinghouse Preventative Maintenance Plan and allows increased
. flexibility in determining when and how maintenance activities are scheduled for the EDGs. This action will improve availability of the engines for service, especially during outages, while maintaining current reliability levels. Future revisions of
- the M/S program will be subjected to the provisions of 10CFR50.59. This activity superseded the commitments related to the EDG M/S program made in SSERs 6,12, 22. j and 25, 1 i

Fuel Pool 2 (SFP2) to- Spent Fuel Pool 1 (SFP1) and the installation of ; high density racks . in SPF2, The first phase involving removal of the low density. [ racks' from SFP2 is complete. This safety evaluation concerns only the second phase ; of the activity which .is the installation of high density racks. in, SFP2. Use of,the 7 high density racks to store fuel is . contingent upon issuance of'a License Amendment ] by the NRC and is not' included in this Safety Evaluation (LDCR-SA-94-135). :
=i Summary of Evaluation.
This phase 2 of the activity includes the preparation - for, and the installation of.
} ' high density storage racks in SFP2. SFP2 preparation activities include draining .the pool. removing existing bolting at the pool floor, and installing bridge plates' I
and shims at the pool floor. , 4 A safety related.. single failure proof heavy lift system will be temporarily installed on'th'e Fuel Handling Bridge Crane rails' and utilized to accomplish this ' install ation. The temporary rack handling crane that will be installed for the installation of the high' density racks satisfy NUREG-0554 for single-failure-proof f requirements. NUREG-0612 for handling heavy' loads at nuclear power plants. ASME ; NOG-1 for construction of overhead and gantry cranes. ANSI 14.6 for design of , special lifting devices for radioactive materials, and is designed to meet the s Quality Assurance requirements of 10CFR50 Appendix B and RG 1.33 revision 2 for ! critical components. As suche the temporary rack handling crane can retain the j maximum design load during a Safe Shutdown Earthquake and remain in place under all' ! postulated seismic loadings. l
- No loads will transponed over r6cks storing spent fuel. A load drop analysis has ]
been performed and found to be acceptable for this activity. Based on thi; design approach, the rack installation activities associated with this phase of the Design Modification will have adequate design safety features to prevent or mitigate the consequences of postulated accidental load drops in accordance with the requirements of NUREG-0612. All rack" installation activities will occur away from the SFP2 swing gate and the Fuel Building lift gate. Since the swing gate and lift gate seals are protected from any direct. rack contact. no adverse. affects on the seals will occur. The
- effects associated with rack-to-rack' or rack to-' wall interation due to. rack sliding or , tipping during a seismic event have 'been analyzed- and found to be acceptable.
There are no credible failure modes or accidents that are introduced by this activity. 3 ,1 i

- Sumary of. Evaluation Both the Containment. Spray pump and system characteristics were reviewed. The review ' identified the areas of pump Net positive suction head (NPSH) and the system {
' flow performance as potentially changing, While the Containment Spray pump +
characteristics could change, the resulting system performance is expected to i perform similarly to the _ Containment Spray pumps in Unit 2 and therefore will be acceptable. The minimum 1 and maximum required flow rate rates were satisfied. 1 The impeller change does not introduce new system failure modes, new material - 1ssues,' component failure modes or new failure modes fer the pump. There were no , impacts to the. accident analysis created by this change' nor was the probability of . occurrence of a licensing basis accident impacted nor was a new type of unanalyzed l event created. Therefore, based on this evaluation, no unreviewed safety question i exists. or is created with the implementation of this design modification. ;

Susunary of Evaluation f The written annual assessment on the overall adequacy and effectiveness of the 0A Program provides a post fact static evaluation. Technology enhancements at CPSES ; , and established processes, such as the Plant Performance.0verview Report and the NOD, i Monthly Integrated 4 Report, provide more dynamic, on-line capabilities for Senior 4 Management to be involved in OA Program implementations. Because of technological. development and other processes, the " written annual assessment" has become a i process .that adds no value to the overall quality and effectivemess of the OA I Program.. The 'following statement satisfies the requirements of 10CFR 50.54(a). The , proposed change revises the OA Program at CPSES but does not reduce the comitments a

l i
- Description 'of Change (s):
'This ' activity involves 'a plant. design modification to replace card reader cipher j . pads at the Protected Area access points with the Hand Geometry Biometric Identifier j System (Biometrics System). Biometrics System hand' readers were installed in front !
of access turnstiles to identify each individual who is authorized unescorted access 1 to the CPSES Protected Area. The individual's identification is verified by placing . I his/her. badge in the access card reader and then placing their hand on the measuring j
' surface of the Biometrics System hand reader. The Biometrics System compares the )
individual's ; hand scan" with the unique physical characteristics of the ' individual's hand (hand geometry) which has previously been registered with their , badge number in the access control system, No one can'use a badge to gain. access a except .the individual whose hand geometry has been' registered to that badge. The Biometrics System replaces the previous system' of individual identification.i.e. , .
. individual identification by Security officer at'the time of picture badge issue at [
the Protected Area access point followed by the individual's input of a unique code - _; into a card reader cipher pad. ! Summary of Evaluation The Biometrics. System is a superior personnel identification process because it provides.- a nontransferable means of identifying individuals, unlike a picture on a Dadge or entering a code in a cipher pad. This activity is an enhancement to Protected Area access control and will eliminate the requirement for security officers to issue. retrieve and store picture identification badges at the entrance stations to the CPSES Protected Area. The installation and use of the Biometrics
. System is supported by approved changes to the CPSES Security Plan and an NRC approved exemption to certain requirements of 10CFR73.55(d)(5).
This activity installs the Biometics- System in the Primary Access Point (PAP) and Alternant Access Point (AAP) which are classified as non-safety related and non-seismic structures. .This activity is non-safety related and installation is in an area where no safety related equipment is located. The evaluation concludes that the activity has no effect on the accidents and malfunctions evaluated in the licensing basis documents, has no potential for creation of a new type of unanalyzed event, and affects ' no technical specifications: therefore, there is no unreviewed safety question. 3 i

The structural' framework is designed to sustain gravity . loads (dead loads and impact ; load) and lateral loads generated by transporting of the Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) ; motor;1n'and out of Containment. The support . columns- (shoring of slab at EL. . 832*-6") provided to transfer the gravity loads of RCP motor to slab on grade at EL. L 808' 0". will be .decoupled at the splice once RCP motor removal and reinstallation , activity is complete. The support column configuration (decoupled at splice) during j plant MODES 1 thru 6 ensures that Reactor Building structural framework is not f altered and there-is no introduction of new load transfers between floors as well as j within the building structural members. i Another consideration is the interactions caused by possible overturning of trolley structure and RCP motor with surrounding equipment / components due to a seismic event. Since the plant is shutdown and is dufueled while the subject activity is i being performed. the equipment / components in the area of this activity are not required to operate and are also in shut down mode.- Therefore, the safety function l

Summary of Evaluation The deletion of the pump suction casing vents was determined to be acceptable based on a review of the pump manufacturer operations manual which describes the filling and venting requirements. The Containment Spray system suction relief valves were also deleted. While it is common to protect the pump lines of high differential pressure pumps from an inadvertent over pressurization during testing or upset condition. it is not l specifically required by the ASME Code if it can be shown that the over-pressurization condition could only occur during non-design basis operating conditions; The pump suction piping is designed for pressures higher that the maximum pressure resulting from the design basis upset conditions.

- Summary of Evaluation- , ~ -(
The reactor trip system instrumentation response time for the "Undervoltage - l Reactor Coolant Pumps" is the time interval from when the monitored parameter { exceeds its -trip 5% point at the channel sensor until loss of stationary gripper .j coil voltage. accordingly when the supply bus voltage of the RCP is lost f
' instantaneously, .the monitored parameter has exceeded it's trip setpoint, but the ,
channel ' sensor ( U V. Relay) is unable to detect this due to the effect of back ' EMF. , i
. Voltage decay is a process of time which falls outside the definit 11on of Reactor -l Trip System Response Time (which starts when the monitored parameter excceds its i trip setpoint). The monitored parameter is clearly voltage which does not I instantaneously decay; voltage on the bus is not different than flow in the loop. [
the response time of 1.5 seoncds currently given in TRM Table 1.1.1 and FSAR Table l 15.0.4 is not consistent with this definition. The response time has been shortened i appropriately to exclude voltage decay time based on calculated and/or tested time l for EMF decay. The UV- RCP= response time includes 1) time delay for reactor trip l breaker to_ open an RCCA gripper to release. 2) the intentional time delay set into l
- the UV Relay to prevent spurious trips, and 3) inherent UV sensing circuitry time !
delay for the UV trip setpoint is reached until the UV trip signal is generated. '! l The respnse time has been changed to 1.1 seconds with a footnote stating that an !

MM 95-005: LDCR SA-95-024; Removal of Diaphragm from Boric Acid Tank CPX-CSATBA-01 and Revision of FSAR Section 9.3 to Reflect the Removal Description of Change (s): This activity will remove the diaphragm from Boric Acid Tank CPX- CSATBA-01. It is known that five small pinhole performations exist in the diaphragm. Because of this. and because the evaluation determined that the diaphargm serves no function (i.e. the diaphargm has no effect on dissolved oxygen concentration in the tank). then it 1'. determined that removal of the diaphargm would be prudent and will have no adverse impact. Summary of Evaluation Removal of the diaphargm from the boric acid tank will not impact the safety of the plants structures, systems, and components because the boric acid solution stored in the tank contains equilibrium levels of dissolved oxygen due to the solution's preparation process. Oxygen concentration will not increase if the diaphargm is removed. Operating expereience has confirmed that the use of the boric acid solution in the RCS has not resulted in the RCS disolved oxygen concentration to be grater , than 2 parts per billion, well below the Technical Specification limit of less than 0.1 part'per million. Since the activity has no effect on the systems, there are no failure modes created by it. I i 1 e

The single loop flow (output of one RCP) is raised from 105.000 gpm to 109.000 gpm and the total mechanical design flow'of the RCS is' raised from 420.000 gpm to 424.000 gpm. The original mechanical design flow . was exceeded -after completion of 2RF01, Furthermore, the original design flow for one RCP is- 105.000 gpm but-Unit 2 has measured values of approximately 108.000 gpm
- in one loop. The subject documents were initiated. to provide a basis for the acceptability ' of'the existing flowrates ' and to increase the maximum flows as noted above.' The observed Unit 2 flows are the reason this activity is necessry. Unit 1 is' changed to aJd margin against exceeding the mechanical design flows and to avoid creating a ' unit difference.
. Susunary of Evaluation The evaluation concluded that increasing the maximum design flow limits to the noted . values does.not'have an adverse impact on the plant. The review indicated no adverse impact on Westinghouse fuel Siemens fuel, reactor internals, steam generators, reactor coolant system components subject to flow erosion, reactor coolant pump operation, and accident analysis. This activity provides a basis for operation at -100% with the new mechanical design flow limits as described above. No commitments to the NRC are changed by this activity. Based on the evaluation.

' Drain Lines Unit.2 Steam Generators. !
Description of Change (s): { This activity involves removing valves 2RC 8079A.B C.D as:well as their associated itubing and fittings' and replacing these parts with.. a plug, These valver were i originally installed to allow a simple way to drain any residual water 'from the a steam generator primary channel head prior to opening the primary manway. However,' ; this-method of draining has not been reliable due to drain line clogging andithe t
- residual water in the primary channel head being drained through the. primary manway.
The decision to' remove the lines and valves rather than leave them in place is based - .;
- i. onLtwo concerns, First of-all :these lines have become a crud. trap and present- l
! .significant ALARA challenges when working around them. Secondly. - the drain line
' configuration extends vertically down from the steam generator and is not' supported.
Thisiconfiguration can oscillate much like a pendulum during operation and result in accelerated l fatigue of the weld which attaches the tubing to the. steam generator. ] . For these reasons it.was determined to be beneficial to eliminate these lines and i
- plug the penetration at the bottom of the steam' generator primary manway.
i- Summary of Evaluation e The effects this activity has on the plant are not adverse. Among the benefits of -
- this modification are an ALARA savings due to the elimination of a crud trap and the elimination of an identified accelerated fatigue mechanism for the steam generator channel head drain line sleeve penetration. No plant coninitments are affected by l I
- this activity. This activity has no impact on the daily plant operations or outage manintenance operations / activities. All original design and safety criteria are ;

' Summary of Evaluation ^
The removal'of the nitrogen blanket capability has no affect on the ability of the
; aux. feed system.to perform its safety functions and introduces no credible . potential . failure modes which could affect any SSC. The nitrogen blanket is used to aid in. control of oxygen in .the CST inventory and will no -longer be required when the.new diaphragm 1s installed, The support modifications involve the elimination of sharp corners and edges to prevent damage to the diaphragm. The bird screens have twice the cross sectional : area for flow through than the
- overflow" vents. The
" overflow" vents vent the air above the diaphragm as water. level increases. They do not vent water. Installation of the bird screens will not inhibit the venting of the tank. The installation of the standoff strips does not reduce the flow area at the - penetration and has no adverse affect on the line, the diaphragm. or tank.

LDCR SA-95-054i FSAR Update Of Steam Dump Valve Actuation I I Characteristics .; 1 , l Description of Change (s): -l 2 Update the FSAR to reflect the acceptability of Steam Dump valve stroke time based , on achieving required flow rates- within the required times, rather than full- valve L . travel, and the greater than indicated maximum flow capacity of the' valves, i
.i i
Summary of Evaluation -
.The FSAR describes the Steam Dump Valves as being capable of going from fulliclosed ~
4 to full open within 3 seconds. and capable of being modulated with a maximum full ! stroke time of 20 seconds. Steam Dump operators' use a volume booster to provide for j rapid opening: however.. when the valves reach about 80 to 90 percent open. the .. l volume booster cuts out and subsequent valve travel time is much slower, often' ! resulting in the valves failing to . reach the ' full open' travel stop within the ! Specified time. Calculations indicate that the valves reach the minimum required l flow when they are 57% open: therefore they are still able to perform their intended l function. Additionally. the maximum steam flow through the valves is assumed to be less than 1 269 pounds per second for the ' Inadvertent opening of.a Steam Generator Relief or -
' Safety Valve' analysis in FSAR 15.1.4 Contrary to this assumption, calculation indicate that the actual full open steam flow is 308. pounds per second. !
Nevertheless, operabil1ty is unaffected because this condition remains bounded by l the double ended win steam line break evaluated in FSAR Section '15.1.5. Therefore, based on the results of this Safety Evaluation, implementation of the proposed activity does not involve an unreviewed safety question. 3 l i

l Description of Change (s): . l
' Temporary leak repair of the body-to-bonnet joint of check valve '2-8378A and maybe !
f2-8378B will require 'installatin of a large'
- clamp-like" device around the valve l Lb ody to-bonnet joint'. This will not allow the reinstallation of the normal metallic i reflective' insulation s For the duration of the temporary modification, an alternate insulating material will be used to maintain local temperatures within acceptable limits. The choosen material is fibrous insulation (fiberglass)
Summary of Evaluation. The insulation has no impact on the valve and will not contribute to any credible .l
; valve failure modes. However, as a result of postulated line breaks, the insulation !
could become debris due to jet impingement. Debris in containment following a LOCA l
- is'of concern if it is transportable to the containment recirculation sumps and then f only if unacceptable blockage occurs such that the net positive suction head (HPSH) i for the ECCS pumps becomes inadequate. No new credible failure modes are introduced i as this ' type insulation already exists within the steam generator compartments. l This' temporary modification will deviate from descriptions in the LBD's that
. indicate fibrous'. insulation is only used on lines for anti-sweat purposes. The ;
existence of fibrous insulation materials in the. steam generator compartments is j discussed-in NUREG-0797. Supplement 9' on pages L-5' and L-6. This discussion
]
concludes that due to the low calculated local flow rates of water durnig the j recirculation phase of accident mitigation. " . . transport ' of insulation debris initially deposited.'in the steam ' generator compartment 's highly unlikely. Therefore, the staff has concluded that insulation debris will not contribute to sump blockage." i i i The subject valve is in the cone of influence of at least one postulated pipe break ! but jet impingement is also an unlikely transport mechanism for this material to the I sump. There is no direct path from its installation location to the sump and furthermore, there is a screen door installed at the entrance to all four steam generator compartments. This door will provide a very effective additional barrier to bulk. transport of this material out of the compartment. In the unlikely event o that the material did find its way to the sumps it would reasonably be expected -to 1 matt on the floor and lower portion of the sump screen. The paricular fibrous I insulation material to be used has no integral backing material that could present a
. solid surface to currents in the water. Therfore, due to its " porus" nature, it would not be expected to be easily carried by local currents to spread out on the . screens"and cover any signifcant screen area.

LDCR.SA-95-057: Delete the Storage of Respiratory Protection Equipment
--(RPE) from Emergeny Response Facilities (except SCBAs from CR & EOF)
Description of Change (s): This activity changes FSAR Sections 12.5.2.4 15.6.5.4(4) and III . A.1.2(II(F)) - to -
.. reflect the removal (no storage) of respiratory protection equipment (RPE) from the l CPSES emergency response facilities except for Self Contained Breathing Apparatus - l (SCBA) for the Control Room and Emergency Operations Facility (EOF);
Summary of Evalu$ tion . With ' respect to emergency response, full-face respirators.'using either HEPA or j
. sorbent cartridges, are no longer intended to be worn by personnel inside the emergency response facilities or on offsite' monitoring teams during a radiological emergency. at CPSES. Habitability monitoring, including radiological air sampling, is .continusously performed in the emergency response facilities. The results of this monitoring are used by senior RP staff and the facilty manager to determine the necessary protective measures to be taken to keep personnel exposures ALARA. 3 Protective measures that may be taken include: l DAC-br. tracking j - Ingestion of KI ! - Facility personnel relocation. - and j - Respiratory protective equipment.
RPE remains available onsite for issue if needed, and use is specified in station procedures: however, RPE use is a last resort in protecting individuals from i exposure to 'an airborne hazard. This is because the use of RPE can result in an increase in the overall exposure to an individaul who is not normally required to wear RPE. In additon, increased personal safety considerations must be appraised for , those individuals due to the hazards of RPE use (physical and mental stess, fogging. l limited vision. limited connumications. etc. ). By using a combination of administrative controls. RPE use by facility and offsite team personnel will not be
-required.
This change to the FSAR presents no new accident types or equipment failure modes at CPSES. This activity proposes no changes in the radiation dose resulting from a design. basis accident. No credit is taken in the existing accident analyses for the use of respirators by TSC personnel for the reduction of dose. The protective clothing and respirators (SCBAs) specifed in design basis documents for Control Room personnel are' unaffected by this acitiviey. RPE from the TSC is not required by response personnel - to enable vital area access for the purpose of accident mitigation. This acitivity has no affect on safety-related systems and equipment. and the radiological consequences of any credible accident are unchanged. j i I

-the FSAR Chapters 6 and 15 accident analyses. the limiting analysis was the Unit 1 l
mass and energy release calculation done for the Unit I containment response to a j steamline break. That calculation has been superseded by an analysis in which main feedwater and main steam line' isolation is completed in greater than 7 seconds. Thus. -it is permissible to relax the isolation time requirement without introducing any unreviewed safety questions. The revised Unit I containment response analysis '
,. was evaluated (SE-93-121 and SE-94 082) and found to be acceptable.

Use of AS-Found T-Ref Program for Unit 1 Cycle 5. and Unit-2 Cycle 2 - (ONE Form 93 029) Description of Change (s):
,The turbine- first stage pressure was found .to differ from the. design value. The L turbine first stage pressure 'is used to provide the. progranned average temperature <(T-Ref) which is used to control- the plant's operating average temperatur'e. The ' difference in turbine first -stage pressures results in a T-Ref program which is higher that the design program and reaches-its maximum value at approximately 94% of rated -thermal power rathan than 100%.
Summary of Evaluation The accident analyses in the FSAR . Chapter .15'were reviewed for impact. Those events which are not always most limiting, with respect to the event acceptance criteria, at full power were evaluated for potential effects. The as-found T-Ref program increases the core . inlet temperature from which the event is initiated. potentially resulting in a DNB penalty. However, for all cases potentially effected. it was determined that adequate DNB margin existed to absorb the penalty. Therefore, the as-found turbine first stage pressure is acceptable.

It was noted l that 'several valves had stroke times which provided minimal margin for expected l normal degradation in valve peformance before the' maximum WSign allowable closure i times would be exceeded. As a result. the conatinment isolation design comrnitments ! ~for several valves were examined for possible increases of the allowed closure !
times The review indicated that there was design margin available for some of these valves. By this activity the design documents are revised to indicate, and l technically justify, the changes to the closing time requirements for specific !
' valves. The 'TRM is revised to document the chages inthe closing times for these ;
valves. The FSAR is' updated to reflect the chages to the TRM and the design basis
, documentation.
Summary of Evaluation The containment isolation valve closing time commitments, as contained in the FSAR and the TRM, were reviewed against the guidance provided in BTP CSB 6-4 and ANSI N271. For fluid systems penetrating contaiment it was determined that the current closing times are very conservative with respect to the guidance provided in the noted documents. Further review indicated that the closing times for these valves could be relaxed to. times which were still conservative with respect to ANSI N 271. while providing sufficeint margin for the expected normal degradation in valve stroke perfomrance. Such a relaxation was found to have no impact upon system performance. .the ability of the valves to perform their intended safety function nor result in a significant increase to the calculated, limiting, radiological consequences of an accident, For the two valves that connect to the containment atmosphere. changing the closing time requirement of three (3) seconds to an
^
isolation time of five (5) seconds is also consistent with the guidance of ANSI N271 and BTP CSB 6-4, The licensing basis radiological consegences anayses were performed using a 5 second isolation time (i.e. including instrumentation delays)
~ for these subject valves. The evaluation of the increase in the closing time for these valves- indicates no adverse impact upon the performance of either the valve or the associated system and no impact upon the basis for the Technical Specifications. .f

PPT.-TP-95B-3; SI Accumulator 2-03 Discharge Check Valve Open Test Unit 2 Description of Change (s): The Inservice Testing (IST) Plan requires that the Safety Injection (SI) Accumulator discharge chaeck valves (8956A.B.C.D) be periodically disassebled and inspected. This activity is a special test performed to obtain information regarding the acceptability of implementing this test methodology for satisfying the underlying IST requirement (check valve operability). This one-time test will be conducted with Unit 2 defuelled, reactor vessel head removed. the upper internals in place and the refueling cavity mostly filled. The associated SI Accumulator will be isolated and then filled (or verified filled) with 2400 ppm to 2600 ppm borated water and pressurized (or depressurized) to approximately 3S psig. The motor operated accumulator' discharge isolation valve will be opened allowing forward flow from the accumulator to the Reactor Coolant system, opening the subject check valve and depressuring the accumulator. The check valve will be monitored to confirm proper opening. Summary of Evaluation The evaluation determined that several pressure / temperature transients will occur as a result of the test. The components affected by the transients are the SI Accumulator, the associated SI piping. RCS/SI nozzle and the RCS piping and components. These transients were found to either be bounded by transients already in the design basis or were evaluated and found, when examined in conjuction with the design basis transients. to be within the design requirements. Some routine precautions were identified as required for securing various equipment during the test. The radiological consequences of the test were examined and found to be localized and minimal . Since the test is not described in the FSAR, the associated snubbers will be visually inspected per TRM TR 3.1d. v

t
. Summary of Evaluation . The removal of. the nitrogen blanket capability has no effect on the ability of the f auxiliary feedwater system to perform its safety function' and introduces no credible '
failure modes which could affect any system structure or component. The nitrogen blanket was used to aid in the control of oxygen in the CST inventory and will no i longer be required when the new diaphragm is installed. The removal of the pipe and ! supports inside'the tank above the diaphragm will eliminate sharp edges that could I damage the diaphragm. The addition.of the bird screens will not impact the ability
.of the vents to properly vent the tank during inflow and outflow conditions. The addition of the standoff strips will not adversely impact the flow characteristics of these lines. The addition of the connections and viewing port to the manway cover are designed to be missile protected. The conclusion of the evaluation is that this modification does not involve an unreviewed safety question.

_ _ l LDCR SA-95-076: PPT-GO-1014 R 0: Procedure to Govern Grain Thief j Sampling of Activated Carbon from the Carbon Adsorber Banks ! 4 Description of Change (s): i This activity is the creation of a procedure to govern grain thief sampling of i activated carbon from the carbon adsorber banks in the Control Room HVAC, Primary- j Plant HVAC. 'and Containment H2 ' Purge and Containment Preaccess systems. CPSES [ currently uses sample cannisters to obtain carbon' samples for testing ESF filtration units required by Technical Specification surveillances 4.7.7.1b(2) & c and-4.7.8b(2) & c, as well as testing of activated carbon installed in nonsafety e filtration systems. The number of sample cannisters installed in each filtration { unit is limited. ~ When testing is required, the cannister is removed from the ! filtration unit.' and,the activated carbon is removed from the cannister and shipped l to a vendor for analysis. If no " Representative" samples are available, all activated carbon in the filtration unit must be removed and replaced. The old ; carbon must be disposed of as radioactive waste. ! To mimimize the unnecessary generation of radioactive' waste a procedure [' (PPT-GO 1014), will obtain " Representative" carbon samples when most sample cannisters' have been expended. The new procedure will provide instructions for sampling the carbon adsorber using a grain thief sampler for laboratory tests and j re filling the sample test canister LDCR No. SA-95-076 will be submitted to to , describe obtaining representative samples with the grain thief for refilling the l cannisters and laboratory testing. ; l Summary of Evaluation FSAR section IA(B) - Discussion of Regulatory Guides 1.52 & 1.140 states that ! laboratory testing will be done in accordance with ANSI N509-1980 and N510-1980 ! instead of the criteria in the Reg. Guide 1.52 & 1.140 section C.6. ; For filtration units ( like ours ) that existed prior to the issuance of N509-1980 on_0ct. 30 1980, slotted tube grain thief sampling is allowed by Appendix A of { N509 1980. The BASES for both Control Room HVAC (3/4.7.7) and Primary Plant ;
. Ventilation (3/4.7.8) Tech. Specs already have the statement " ANSI N5101980 ; &N509-1980 will be used as a procedural guide for surveillance testing of charcoal ,
samples" This safety evaluation found that the National Equipment grain sampler is
! equivalent to the slotted tube sampler described in Appendix A of N509-1980. Equal sampling across the 4' charcoal bed with the grain thief sampler will provide . Representative" samples for laboratory testing. In doing so, the existintg canisters may be refilled- and utilized until results from the lab testing require charcoal replacement.
The activity will not create the possibility of a different type of accident not , previously- evaluated in the LBD's. The safety margin will not be reduced by [ sampling charcoal _ in accordance with the new porcedure PPT-G0-1014. i f l 1 1

Pool-2 Suction Piping and Spent Fuel Pool 1 and 2 Exhaust Registers L Description of Change (s): :
' Design Modification 94+004, Revision 1. includes the installation of high density storage racks in Spent Fuel Pool 2 (SPF2). When both spent fuel pools 1 and 2 are used to store spent fuel, the ability for the Spent Fuel Pool Cooling and Cleanup ; ' System (SF) to cool both pools with a single train cooling while the pools are .!
isolated from each other is required under certain operating scenarios. Under these operating conditions', the potential exists to cause an imbalance in the levels of ' the spent fuel pools due' to differences in piping friction losses. The following , i modifications are included in Design Modification 95-009. Revision 0. to account for this effect. f k
- ltem 1) Orifice plates are to be added to the spent fuel pool no. 2 cooling pump
. suction piping. The orifices are sized to balance the friction losses. in the piping ;
lines between spent fuel pool ' nos. I and 2. This will ensse that the volumes ! removed and returned to the spent fuel pools during the cooling process will remain equivalent .for the two isolated pools and the levels will therefore remain constant. i (FSAR Figure 9.1-13. Sheet 13 was revised by LDCR SA-95-79) {
+
ltem 2) 'The exhaust registers are to be modified such that the eight registers on l the east and west sides of each spent fuel pool are to be blanked off and drywells ; are to be provided for the twelve registers on the n0rth and south sides of each spent fuel pool . This activity ensures that pool water does not overflow into the exhaust registers due to a high level..in a pool and that the registers modifications 3 will not interfere with the movement of spent fuel within the pools. (FSAR Section 9.4.2.1 was revised by LDCR-SA-95-79) l Susunary of Evaluation The impact to the piping due to the. weight added by the orifice plates has been evaluated and found acceptable. The function of the ventilation system will not be adversely: impacted due to the exhaust register modifications. The exhaust airflow ; will be balanced to provide the same total air flow as before. This will assure that Tritium airborne concentrations, if present, will be adequately exhausted to ; the primary plant ventilation system. Also the Fuel Building room temperature has ~ ! been evaluated to ensure the requirements are satisfied. . Install'ation: activities were evaluated to assure that the requirements for 1) heavy {

TM 1 95-009: Temp.-Mod. to Connect Hose from Valve XFP-078 at Discharge of the Chemi Recirc. Pump to Keep Fire Protection System Full of Water + Description of Change (s):. . This temporarary modification (TM)'. is for connecting a hose from valve XFP-0788 at. f
. the discharge of the. Chemical Recircul'ation Pump CPX-FPAPCR-01 to valve XFP-0791 in !
I
. the Jockey Pump' CPX FPAPFP507 discharge line. This allows the recirculation pump to supply partial pressure. of about 80 psig to the fire protection system to keep the i system filled with water. This modification became necessary because the ' fire pumps and jockey pump have to be out of service for maintenance on electric fire ,;
pump discharge relief valve XFP-0329. Also valve XFP-0329 is not isolatable from the j discharge relief valves of other fire pumps and jockey pump. This temporary -l modification ensures maintaining system water pressure to keep- the system filled. i F
- For compensatory measure backup fire pumps are the Emergency Refill Pump t CPX-FPAPFP-01 located in the Service Water Intake Structure (SWIS) and two fire trucks connected to the truck connection near the SWIS or the Administration Annex Building taking suction from the service water discharge canal . These fire pumps can be manually started and connected' to the system if needed. Also this temporary modification is in service with' the valves open for only short duration when valve !
XFP-0329 is being removed and replaced, A blind flange is also installed while
~ 'l valve XFP 0329 is removed. so that the fire pumps and jockey pump can be restored to ;
service. Additionally personnel are made available. for response to operate pump CPX-FPAPFP-01. and the fire trucks during the time the TM is in service. .l Summary of Evaluation ! j The TM allows' the fire protection system to remain functional during a time when the j

' Description of Change (s): . ~
The modification activities involve (1) the installation.of electrical power cables ! between the alternate power transfer switch and the train A and train B Class IE. > 6.9lKV sitchgear. (2) the replacement of 150/5 A current _ transformers with 1000/5 A Class 1E current transformers in the train A and train B spare 6.9 KV switchgear < cubicles to be used for the alternate power diesel generator (APDG) and'(3) the shorting of. over current and ground sensor current transformers in these switchgear j cubicles. l The new feeder cables from the alternate power transfer switch are landed on the ,j _ load side of the existing spare circuit breaker in the train A and train B of 6.9 KV i Class 1E switchgear. These cables are used for providing power to the Class IE buses in the event.of loss of all onsite and offsite AC power during MODES 5 and 6 l of plant' operation. These circuit breakers are normally racked out and disengaged i during MODES 1 through 4. Tne new feeder cables are classified as " Associated" and ; remain de-energized in MODES 1 through 4 and are to be installed in new safety l related seismically installed conduits and existing safety related seismically 'l installed cable trays inside the building. These cables are installed outside the ! Unit 2 Safeguards building in the non-seismically installed conduits and terminate { at the alternate power transfer switch. ! l Summary of Evaluation The impact of concrete block out work on the barrier function (fire, missile. , security. HVAC, radiation) was reviewed for Safeguards building north exterior wall I (15 S). Safeguards building room 103 roof and the wall (BS) between the train A , Switchgear room 83 and hallway room 82. It was determined that the barrier breach f for. the' time necessary to install the conduit sleeve and cables is acceptable. The i impact of installing the seismic scaffolding over the train B switchgear for the l time necessary to install the conduit was also reviewed and found acceptable. The f installation of the cables in the existing safety related cable trays is acceptable I with respect to ampacity, combustible loading. ' and the existing seismic qualification of the cable trays envelope the additional loading resulting from the l new cables. Installation of the cable connection into the 6.9 KV switchgears has l been evaluated and determined not to compromise electrical separation or operability ! of either train busses. l The impact of disabling the protection in the spare circuit breaker cubicles (to be l Lused for APDG) was reviewed and it was found acceptable to solely use the APDG ; protection and manually load limit the APDG to 3500 KW. Since the APDG's short i
~ circuit . current capability is less than' the continuous rating of the 6.9 KV j switchgear; it makes the 6.9 KV switchgears inherently protected from APDG fault ;
currents. l The impact of the temporary installation of the alternate power diesel ! generators outside the-unit.2 Safeguards building (west side), their testing and } operationfin MODES 5' and 6 was 'also reviewed and determined to be acceptable. f e

DM 94-047. LDCR SA-95-094: Modification of the Fire Suppression Systems
- to Filteration Units to Preclude Water from Spuriously Entering Filter Description of Change (s):
Spurious water -discharge through the automatic deluge' valves into the atmospheric - cleanup units (ACUS) during norma 1 ' maintenance. activities, has repeatedly damaged the charcoal adsorber beds of the units. causing excessive interference with' the
. normal operation of the units and added economic burdens of charcoal replacement. . The' proposed activities . involve modifying the existing water-spray fire suppression systems , protecting the primary plant exhaust ventillation units, hydrogen purge exhaust ventilation units, and control room ventilation and pressurization units from automatic. to manual operation and revising the associated changes in system descriptions in the Final Safety Analysis. Report (FSAR).
Summary of Evaluation Buildup of heat in the ACU charcoal adsorber beds from gamma radiation is a gradual. long term process compared to operator response times to initiate manual fire suppression. Worst case radioactive iodine adsorbtion in a charcoal bed, does r.ot result in a temperature rise above the auto-ignition temper <sture of the charcoal. The ACU units are robust in construction and are capapable of containing a fire, should it" occur. Fire suppression is for mitigation of damage inside the unit, and it does help mitigate release of radioisotopes from the charcoal during fire conditions. Advance warning of excessive temperature' in a unit is provided to the operators prior to a potential fire condition. Therefore, manual operation of the
. fire suppression systems for the ACUS is an acceptable alternative to automatic actuation; The proposed activities do not adversely affect the ability to safely - shut down the plant under fire conditions or increase the potential for, or consequences of. a radiological r&lcre to the environment. The General Design Criteria (GDC) 3 and BTP APCSB 9.5.1 :xre satisfied by this modification. Based on the evaluation, the implementation of the proposed activities do rot involve unreviewed safety question.

LDCR SA-'95 110: DCN 5482: FSAR/DBD/P1 ant. Drawing Revision for Accepting the~ Lack of. Separat. Between IE and Non IE EDG RTD Circuits Description of Change (s): Non Class =.1E RTDs' located in the Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) stator are
= connected .to Class' 1E circuits without an. isolation device. The affected plant drawings are revised to clarify the safety classification of the RTDs. Design Basis Document DBD-EE-057 is revised to provide an analysis . indicating the acceptability .of the installation.
Summary of Evaluation
' The EDG stator RTDs do not perform-a safety related function. and therefore are
- classified as non-Class .1E. The diesel generator vendor has evaluated the various failure modes and determined that these RTDs have no effect on the safety function of the generator.
RTDs are passive devices. . The only credible ' failure modes for the RTDs are an open circuit or a short circuit. These failure modes can cause false temperature indication. However, the temperature indications derived from these RTDs do not have a safety function. Consequently, any incorrect temperature indications derived will will not have an adverse effect on safety. Since the RTDs are passive devices, an open circuit does not result in any unusual voltage or current in the circuit. Consequently, an open circuit at an RTD does not adversely affect the Class IE circuit components. Because the RTDs are connected to high impedence electronic devices, short circuits at the RTDs produce very small short circuit currents. These small currents do not adversely affect. the performance of the Class IE circuit. Based upon the results of this . evaluation. implementation of the proposed activity does not involve an unreviewed safety question.

.The existing level instrumentation for the spent fuel pools provide a high and low .
pool level alarm. These instruments will be replaced with new level instruments l that will retain the function of high and low level alarms and add the safety ' related function of providing pump protection for low-low pool level. Th_i s' will l provide pump protection if a failure or a malfunction of equipment in the SFP caused I a loss of pool inventory. ~In addition, if 'a single pool is aligned to both trains . .I l of- SF cooling, as may occur under some operating scenarios when both pools are used I ( . to store spent fuel, the' low low pool level trip will eliminate the common mode _ p failure of both' trains of SFP cooling. (Design Modification 95-10. LDCRs SA-95-108. l i
- SA 95 117)
Summary of Evaluation The new instrumentation will be in two separate devices. A sensor which will be
. installed in the same location as the existing level switch and an electronics housing which contains the terminals and relays for the switch functions and will be installed in the Spent Fuel Pool cooling pump rooms. Class 1E and non IE cables !
terminate on the same terminal block inside the electronic boxes. Non IE cables are rated at 600 V ac and are fire retardant and the associated terminal block is heavy duty type with adequate rating. The devices inside the electronic boxes are seismically installed. The cables in the vicinity of annunciator cable terminations ; are trained to terminate on particular terminals. These cables are not expected to get loose and cause hot short at the annunciator cable terminals. These changes will not degrade the operation of the Class IE boxes. I The r11 and Lo alarm setpoints have not changed. Only a pump trip is added for equipment protection and this will not jeopardize the 23* requirement for pool inventory. This modification provides add'.tional assurance that failures or malfunctions of equipment will not prevent the ability to recover and provide at least one train of cooling to both spent fuel pools. This modification does not introduce or increase the potential for inadvertent loss of Spent Fuel Pool cooling. There are no potential failure modes introduced by ! implementation of the modification. The modification has no effect on accidents and malfunctions' of equipment evaluated in Licensing Basis Documents and does not create
' the potential' for a new type of unanalyzed eevent. This activity- does not affect ! - any system used ~ for accident mitigation, will not affect the plant or response to a system' failure, and will meet all system design basis requirements. There are no affected Technical specificatons for the activty. This activity has no adverse impact on the daily plant opertions or outage acitivities. All orignal design and safety criteria are met. . Therfore, this modification does not involve an Unreviewed Safety - Question.

~ MM 95-216. DCN 9761:'LOCR SA-95-122: Increase of " fast" speed of Fuel Handling Bridge Crane. from Controller Programmed Current Max. of 33FPM - Description of Change (s): Increase the " fast" speed of the Fuel Handling Bridge Crane from controller-progranyned . current maximum of 33 FPM to new progranmed maximum speed of 40 FPM and
? valuate any impact this speed increase may have on safety related equipment.
(LDCR-SA-95-122; MM 95-216: DCN 9761.) Summary of. Evaluation The Fuel Handling Bridge Crane is used for handling fuel assemblies within-the spent fuel pools, refueling canal, and wet cask pit. Increasing the " fast" speed from the - current programmed maximum of 33 FPM to the new programmed maximum of 40 FPM will cause the fuel assembly to travel with more tilt and will put more force on the top nozzle and fuel assembly., Since-the trolley hoist can be moved in a direction
' perpendicular to the bridge movement, using the hand driven chain mechanism, the maximum' speed of the fuel assembly will ~ be slightly higher than 40 FPM. A review was conducted and the conclusion reached-that the increased tilt (and resultant swing if the fuel assembly is brought to rest) will not pose any threat to fuel integri ty. . Review also concluded that the increased hydraulic loading on the fuel assembly components .will be negligible in comparison to fuel assembly handling load allowances. It was concluded that the increased speed will not introduce any significant increase in forces experienced by the top nozzles. fuel assemblies, or the fuel handling tool which could lead to fuel drop accidents. The design basis fuel handling accident as described in FSAR Section 15.7.4 remains bounding regardless of fuel assembly speed. It was also concluded that any moment force experienced by the fuel assembly structure or top nozzle would be insignificant and thus would not be expected to have an adverse effect on the fuel assembly. The bridge stops are modified to stop the bridge crane at 40 FPM as required. The increase in speed does not. represent an unreviewed safety question nor result in a change to the Technical Specifications. The evaluations and conclusions reached are applicable for both Westinghouse and Siemens supplied fuel assemblies.

' The specific licensing. basis { l = limit for maximum fuel assembly drop height onto the new fuel storage racks (3.5 l feet) is .to be removed. because the revised criticality evaluation does not rely on this, limit. l f I i Summary of Evaluation
.Because new fuel is normally stored in the new fuel storage racks under dry ; ' conditions.' it is not necessary to evaluate mechanical damage incidents coincident with, wet, moderated conditions. Fuel with an enrichment of 5 w/o U235 or less can l nr.t be made critical under dry conditions, even considering any possible accidental ,
!. damage ' or deformation. Thus it can be concluded that mechanical. damage incidents can not result in an unsafe new fuel storage geometry with ~ respect to criticality l considerations . . l The proposed 1FSAR change' removes the description of specific limits for maximum fuel ; assembly drop - height, maximum fuel . handling bridge crane uplift ' forces, and
~
administrative restrictions for heavy load handling from Section 9.1.1.3. since i these specific limits are not required for the conclusion that accidental { criticality is precluded. l i It: should be noted that separate descriptions of the design features which prevent j
. mechanical damage to fuel assemblies in the new fuel storage racks are provided in l FSAR Section 9.1.1.1 and 9.1.1.2. This activity does not modify the descriptions I provided in those sections. Speci fically. the maximum crane uplift force limit (5000 lbs) and administrative ' restrictions for heavy load handling that are to be removed from FSAR 9.1.1.3 are still described in FSAR 9.1.1.1 and 9.1.1.2. The ET maximum fuel assembly drop height limit (3.5 ft above the racks) is not described ;
elsewhere in the FSAR. Thus, this activity (FSAR 9.1.1.3 change) effectively i removes only the fuel assembly drop height limit from the CPSES licensing basis. l Because the criticality design basis for fuel storage and handling remains f satisfied.' there is no increase in the radiological . consequences of any accident or - ! malfunction, nor is there any decrease in the margin of safety. l i

The inspection procedure will require that no spent fuel assemblies. are located in the storage cells near the inspection area; this _ restriction ensures that the currently analyzed fuel spacing requirements for spent fuel criticality remain bounding. However, the fuel assemblies being inspected may be temporarily positioned closer to the spent fuel pool. wall than the distance previously analyzed -

Calculations have demonstrated that all applicable heating ' limits remain satisfied, ' even condidering a single fuel assembly located near the pool wall for the period to time required for the inspection. The criticality design basis for fuel storage and handling also remains satisfied because procedural controls ensure that the currently analyzed spacing requirements remain satisfied. The probability of a fuel handling accident is not increased. based on a comparison to current CPSES fuel handling operations, which includes insertion and removal of fuel from the reactor core and the spent fuel storage racks.

The. drum dryer is a self-contained, . skid-mounted system that ney be used . for conditioning. or volume reduction of some miscellaneous liquid radioactive waste or sludge generated from tank cleaning or decontamination activities. The system - consists of a separation tank, air-cooled heat exchanger, three pumps (supply, vacuum and recirculation), and associated piping valves and instrumentation.
.The subject miscellaneous liquid wastes may 'not be suited for Filter Demineralizer System (FDS) or' floor drain evaporator processing. The liquid could chemically deteriorate the FDS resins. Assuming the floor drain waste evaporator could be used, the liquid would produce additional evaporator bottoms for disposal. Condensed steam from the dryer skid will be processed with other liquid radioactive wastes and the residual solids handled as Dry Active Waste. . Summary of Evaluation use of the drum dryer system allows preconditioning or volume reduction of the input l1 quid radioactive waste without increasing normal operation released radioactivity.
Process Control Program requirements do not apply since the system is not. intended ,
. to process liquid radioactive waste in a form that meets shipping and burial ground requirements, During normal operation of the drum dryer, the contents of the separation tank may be drained to an appropriate floor drain or tank for routine processing. Since the . potential for vapor exists in the separation tank, there is a small potential for airborne radioactivity to be released when the tank is drained; however, any release would be monitored by the plant vent stack radiation monitors per the ODCM requirements. If airborne radioactivity is released during the draining process, the release is expected to be minimal and 10CFR50, Appendix I dose calculations '

- This activity revises the Process Control Program (PCP) to add a new vendor for spent. resin dewatering. and provides a generic- evaluation for using vendor supplied equipment in the CPSES Fuel Building for performing radioactive waste processing .1.e... spent resin dewatering. The dewatering system consists of a means to remove ' water from spent resin to meet disposal limits of <1% free standing water. Resin . dewatering may. be provided at CPSES by Scientific Ecology Group (SEG)(includes the former Westinghouse Hittman Nuclear Incorporated). Diversified Technologies. or' . Other vendors who provide this service and remain within the criteria specified in
- this safety evaluation.
- Summary of Evaluation' Spent resin handling. (dewatering) activities are to .be performed in Fuel Building
, room locations where:the equipment does not impact or affect the. performance of plant safety systems. The impacts of fire, rupture of a High Integrity Container (HIC) liner. rupture of a spent resin transfer hose, rupture of a receiver tank (or catch ' drum)., processing equipment failure, potential release of gases, media .- exothermic reactions 'during dewatering, and overfill of the HIC were reviewed No ' potential for fire or explosion is postulated because ambient temperatures- are used in the dewatering process, A generic accident analysis was performed that eveloped the spent resin handling activities. The Existing Liquid Waste Storage Tank accident was determined to envelope the radiological consequences that could be introduced by this activity as the liquid volume and radioactive concentrations in the Liquid Waste Storage Tank rupture accident are much greater than those expected in the dewatering receiver tank or catch drum, Vendor dewatering sytems are designed to 4 comply with applicable codes, regulations and standards and therefore do not increase the probability of a Liquid Waste Storage Tank rupture or Lig'uid Waste System leak or failure.

LDCR SA-96-006i Reanalysis of FSAR' Chapter 15.1;1 Accident ~ Analysis to Evaluate Larger Reduction in Feedwater Temperature Description of Change (s): Chapter 15.1.1.of the CPSES FSAR addresses the consequences of feedwater malfunctions which result in a decrease in feedwater temperature. Currently, a decrease. in .feedwater temperature of 35 degrees F is assumed in the analysis performed ' to' evaluate this event. Prior to shutdown of Unit 2 for its second
. refueling outage, a plant transient occurred which was initiated by the opening of the low pressure .feedwater heater bypass valve followed by isolation of the high ~
pressure- extraction steam. During this transient. the feedwater temperature decreased .by more that 200 degrees F.. Until now, the loss of-high pressure extraction steam had not been considered to be a direct consequence of the low. pressure .feedwater heater bypass valve opening. However, it must now be considered t in .the accident analysis. The FSAR Chapter 15.1.1 accident analysis has been revised .to evaluate a larger feedwater temperature. reduction. Susunary of Evaluation The decrease in feedwater ' temperature scenario described in Chapter 15.1.1 has been reanalyzed using NRC approved methods to consider a decrease in feedwater temperature of 246 degrees F upon opening the low pressure feedwater heater bypass
. valve. All applicable event acceptance criteria have been demonstrated to remain . satisfied. Therefore. there is no change to the consequences of the accident as previously _ analyzed nor is there any reduction in the margin of safety as defined by the plant Technical Specifications.

~ Description of. Change (s): . Revises 50P-303B' to revise method of operating ' valve 2-FV-2243 from using the air operator to using the manual hand wheel.
J Summary of Evaluation . ,
, This acitivity revises the method of operating , the Gland Steam (GS) Condenser Bypass Valve (2-FV-2243). Valve 2-FV-2243 shall be throttled into position manually and lef t in ' this position in lieu 'of' being modulated based on flow' through the GS . ~
Condenser;
; Valve 2-FV'-2243 is a 24 inch butterfly valve equipped with a combination air and '
manual operatori The actuator is an. air to open/ air to close piston operator equipped with a manual handwheel which may be' used to take local control of the valve. Currently. the valve is controlled' via a Manual / Automatic station '1n the Control . Room- (2 FK-2243) in the automatic mode to maintain 1000 GPM through the GS Condenser as read on' 2 FI-2243. . The valve modulates to maintain this flow through the condenser. during periods of. reduced flow the valve closes -to force additional flow through the condenser and in the process creates' a larger pressure drop across the system. The design intent was to limit flow-induced-erosion of the GS condenser tubes and since the valve will be throttled (manually) into position the design intent of limiting the the maximum flow through the GS Condenser will still be achieved. In event of some type of valve failure. the high differential pressure alarm features will remain as originally design. This change does not involve an unreviewed Safey Question. a 5

.DM 96 01'4:LDCR SAI 96-021: Revision to Condensate Polishing Sys. Logic ! 'and. Instrumentation: Disconnection of HI D/P Across Valve 2-FV--2243-I - Description of Change (s):
The activity being implemented: by DM 96-014' and LDCR SA-96-021 includes revising the , instrumentation and the software . logic to facilitate the opening of the Condensate i ~ Polishing Bypass Valve (2-PV-2242) as well as adding a signal (with 2 out of 3 : logic) from the suction of the feedwater pumps' to open this condensate bypass valve.
- The other change in this modification consists of removing the signal for opening i the Energency Low Pressure. Heater Bypass . Valve (2-PV-2286) from a HI differential pressure (D/P) . signal across the. Gland Steam Condenser Bypass Valve (2-FV-2243).
- - The original intent for a HI D/P across valve 2-FV-2243 to open the valve 2-PV-2286 ;
was to ensure feedwater to the feecWater pumps. It has been determined that l opening' of! valve 2-FV-2286 causes a serious transient to the plant and .it is not l benefical to the plant. Summary of Evaluation The FSAR change has been generated to update the FSAR regarding the removal of the
. HI differential pressure (D/P) signal, measured across the Steam Gland Condenser j Bypass Valve (2-FV-2243). and being sent to open the Emergency Low Pressure Heater ;
Bypass Valve (2-PV-2266). The _ opening of valve 2-PV-2286 from an alternate signal j was intended to ensure that the feedwater pumps would not trip on low suction. Valve 2;PV-2286 also gets a signal to open when there is low suction at the feedwater pumps. The previous change that was made to add the 2 out of 3 logic on this signal (HI D/P across valve 2-FV-2243) was intended to mitigate a spurious actuation of this valve and prevent an unnecessary transient. However, removing the signal in its entirety will prevent the transient from occurring without impacting ; the flow of water to the feedwater pumps. Part of this design modification includes i opening of the Condensate Polishing bypass Valve (2-PV-2242). This valve will
. recieve a signal to open prior to opening valve 2-PV-2286. The opening of valve 2-PV 2242 from a 2/3 signal whenever there is low suction pressure at the feedwater pumps will reduce the chances of having valve 2-PV-2286 open as well . Thus.
increasing the reliability of the feedwater system. This is an additional measure of preventing a severe transient from occurring in the secondary side of the plant. These activities do not involve an unreviewed safety question. , i A l i i

~ Description of Change (s)i This activity installs. removable structural- framework, rails, trolley. = etc. in Unit ' 2 containtment in the' vicinity of equipment hatch at EL 832'-6". The modification ' also provides temporary supports for Reactor Building slab at. EL 832*-6";
Summary of. Evaluation The 'above described activity will be performed while the Plant is in MODES 5 or 6 or
'defueled. . In consideration of plant status when the subject activity. is perfromed, this .evaluatino establishes that no credible failure mode (during MODE 5, MODE 6 or defueled) is introduced for the: affected structure and systems / components required '
lto perform their- safety functino' during MODE' 5, MODE 6. or defueled.
-The structural framework is designed to sustain gravity loads and lateral loads generated by transportation of the RCP motor. The support columns (shoring ' of slab at EL 832'-6")' provided to transfer loads of RCP motor to slab at EL. 808' will:be '
decoupled at a splice'once the RCP motor removal and reinstallation activity is ' complete and prior to the Plant entering MODE 4. The support columns configuration (decoupled at splice) during plant MODES 1 thru 4 ensures that the Reactor Building structural framework is not altered and there .1s no introduction .of new load transfers between floors as well as within the building structural' members, The evaluation also addressed the possibiity of overturning or' RCP motor under a
~
j seismic event (SSE). Based on RCP motor configuraiton (size, location of center of l gravity, etc. ). weight and amount of seismic input acceleration at SSE it was established that RCP motor overturning is not a credible event. Also the existing : concrete beam and slab structure together with support structure being installed _ l (column beam, rails) will no structurally fail (collapse) under seismic' loads (SSE) l durning RCP motor transportation. Therefore interactions with systems / components in ! the area at EL. 832*-6" and EL. 808'-0" are precluded.

LDCR SA 96-035 DCN-10228 R0'(DBD-ME 250): Use of Steam Generator Nozzle Dams for Performing SG Maintenance.During Refueling Operations Description of Change (s): The Design Change Notice (DCN) and the associated Licensing Document Change Request (LDCR) change CPSES as described in the' Licensing Basis Documents to allow the use of steam generator nozzle dams for performing maintenance concurrent with refueling operations :in MDDE 6. This change in the facility and in the refueling procedures was. not previously. described in the Licensing Basis nor.had a 50.59. evaluation been performed. DNE Form 96-158 corrective, action requires that this evaluation be performed to ensure no unreviewed safety question exists. Summary of Evaluation - Nozzle dams serve as temporary reactor coolant loop 1 solation valves in order to perform steam generator maintenance while refueling is proceeding concurrently. They -are to be. classified as Nuclear Safety Related, seismically qualified, and
- subject to a 10CFR50 Appendix B OA program. These neasures. in conjunction with the . nozzle dam design characteristics provide reasonable assurance that catastrophic ' failure during spent fuel handling is not credible. Failures during the cavity fill mode would not affect the safety related function of any component. Their use does not create a new failure mode or increase the probabiliity of an accident area.yzed in the FSAR nor does it reduce the margin of safety. .W
