( SECTION XI RELIEF BEQUEST RELIEF REQUEST 110. 2002 (Revision 1) COMPO!jENT INFORMATI0!i This Control Rod Drive (CRD) Water Header Check Valve (IC11-F122) is a containment isolation' valve and prevents the back flow of reactor water when the CRD Pumps are accured. It is an ASME Section III Code Claos 2. Section XI Category A/C valvo. It is a 2 inch check valve and is highlighted on the attached drawing. CODE REQUIREMENT _ The' ASME Code Section XI, Stibarticle IVV-3521 requirca that this valve be exercised every three (3) months. - RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION Illinois Power Company requests relief from the Code requirementa ' ' for the following reasono: ,

                                                     -                                     This check valve is a containment isolation valve which provides

( ' . drive watcr to the hydraulic control units and seal flow to the . reactor recirculation pumps. This is a normally open valve and. cannot be tested during normal. plant operation or cold shutdowna since testing.this valve requires that the CRD system be shutdown causing the control rods' motion to be prevent ed and stop? ing ceal fl.ow to the reactor recirculation pumps. Although the reactor recirculation pumps are not required for safe shutdown of the plant, these pumps are used to assure uniform temperat.ures are maintained in the vessel during cold shutdowns. Exercising this valve would also allow air to enter the CRDs which would - require substantial venting of the' system to remove. ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED Illinois Power Company will exercice this valve during refueling outages. k 1 l

 , The abovo groups of valves; although located in separato systems, have similar configurations; they are check' valvos located in series with other check valvos and no toot connections provided between them to permit individual valve testing.

Each of those valves has a separato check valvo in' series. The two check valves in series, although not required by design or safety. analysis, provide an added assurance that tho :high pressure. Emergency Coro Cooling System (ECCS) line will not damage the lower - pressure water-leg piping. Illinois Power Company considers these two check valves in series as a single entity and will test them as such.

Tenting thene valves will flood the charcoal beds of the Control Room llVAC System. This would cause these trains to become inoperable and would require replacement of the charcoal. In order to avoid flooding the charcoal beds or removal of the charcoal, the Shutdown Service Water System main header would be required to be drained and declared inoperable. The Shutdown Service Water System provides cooling water to ECCS systems and various other cyctema required to be operable in all moden of operation. Both of the above options are not pocaible during cold shutdown testing. The first option would damage the charcoal beds which would require the charcoal. to be removed and replaced. This testing would require the Control Room IIVAC system'to be declared inoperabic. The second option is not possible because the plant must be shut down if the Shutdown Service Water header is drained. Illinoin Power Company will ALTERNATE TESTIIIG PROPOSED perform the required tests during refueling outagen.

LLLINOIS POWER COMPANY CLINTON POWER STATION SECTION_XI RELIEF REQUEST j RELIEF REQUEST NO. 2011 (Revision 1) COMPONENT INFORMATION , All Section XI, Category A and A/C valves which require a leakage test per IWV-3420 as identified in Illinois Power's Pump 6 Valve Testing Program Plan. . CODE REQUIREMENT The ASME Code Section XI, Subsection IWV-3420, Valve Leak Rate = Testing, requires leak race testing for valves where/ leakage is limited to a specific amount in fulfillment of their safety function. Subsection IWV-3423, Differential Test Pressure, requires leak rate testing be performed with the system pressure differential in the same direction as it is when the valve is performing its function. Subsections IWV-3426, Andlysis of Leakage Rate', and IWV-3427, Corrective Action. require i establishing the maximum permissible leakage rate and. evaluating the test results for individual valves. RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION Illinois Power Compc7y requests relief from the Code requirements

   .            for the following reasons:

A For all valves except Excess Flow ' Check Valves: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has concluded that the applicable-leak rate test procedures and requirements for containment isolation. valves are determined by 10CFR50,-Appendix J. The ASME Code requires individual valve leak rate tests, while 10CFR50, Appendix J allows testing of valves in_ groups. In-many cases, there are no provisions to leak rate test inboard and-outboard containment isolation valves individually. There fo.re , the maximum permissible leakage rate for individual valves cannot be specified. As the purpose of these valves is to isolate che -- containment, testing in grpups, i.e., by containment p_enetration, l would verify the integrity of the containment boundary. Also, Section X1, IWV-3427(b), specifies additional requirements-for valve sizes of six inches and larger, beyond,the requirements of IWV-3427(a). These requirements involve the use of leak rate trending in determining subsequent test inrcrvals. However, . industry data has shown'that the trending of lesk- rates is not a meaningful way to predict failure. For Excess Flow Check Valves Excess Flow Cneck Valves are not required.to be individually leak race tested (Type B or Type C) per Clinton Power Station (CPS). I Technical Specification or 10CFR50, Appendix J. However, excess flow check valves are included within the Integrated Leak Rate Test (ILRT): boundaries. Although the ILRT does not measure-m / individual valve leakage races, the satisfactory completion of the ILRT verifies the-overall function of these valves. Section.XI/ISI/18 -

Illinois- Power Company will utilize 10tFR50, Appendix J and CPS Technical Specifications to determine the. differential test pressure for these containment isolation valves. The maximum E permissible leakage rate for a specific containment penetration (inboard and outboard isolation valves combined) will be-specified instead of-a leakage rate-for individual valves as required-by IWV-3426, Analysis of Leakage Races. The, evaluation of test results will be based on the penetration leakage rate (inboard and outboard' isolation valves combined) instead of on the individual valve leakage rate as required by IVV-3427, , Corrective Action. , The trending requirements of IWV-3427(b) will not he Laplemented since meaningful trends cannot be established. For Excess Flow Check Valves . No separate test or evaluation either by individual valve-or by- j

They are ASME Section III Code Class 1, Section XI Category B/C valves. They are 8 in. x 10 in, safoty/ relief valves. The ASME Code Section XI, CODE REQUIREMENTS' Subsection IWV-3411 requires that these valves be exercised and stroke timed every three (3) months.

These valves cannot be exercised quarterly during power operations because failure of a valve .in the open position would place the plant in a LOCA condition. These valves should not be exercised during cold shutdowns in order to reduce the number of challenges to safety / relief valves as recommended by NUREG-0737 and a recent study on the subject (BWR Owner's Group Evaluation of NUREG-0737 Item II.K.3.16, Reduction of Challenges and Failures of Relief Valves). The reactor pressure is not utilized when testing these valves. A handswitch is utilized with a special tool which reduces the valve speed to avoid damaging the seating surfaces and the disk. Based upon CPS operating experience, Illinois Power Company will consider these valves as rapid acting valves. As these . valves stroke rapidly, measurement of the stroke time of these valves to the nearest second per IWV-3413 (b) means that a very small increase in stroke time could result in an extremely large percentage of change. The verification that these valves meet a specified maximum stroke time of a relatively short duration provides adequate assurance of operability of these valves. (

COMPONENT INFORMATION (1E12-F041 A/B/C,1E21-F006, and 1E22-F005) provide isolation from the reactor coolant system and the emergency core cooling systems (Residual Heat Removal,_ Low Pressure Core Spray, High Pressure Core Spray). These valves-are ASME Section III Code Class 1, Section XI Category A/C valves. Valves 1E12-F041 A,B, and C are 12" diameter and valves lE21-F006 and 1E22-F005 are 10" diameter. All of these valves are non-slam check valves. One of these valves (1E12-F041A), which is typical of the group, is circled on the attached drawing. The ASME Code, Section XI, CODEEREQUIREMENTS Subsection IWV-3520 requires that-these valves be exercised every three -(3) months unless such operation is not practical during plant operation.

Exercising these valves on a RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION- three month frequency using the emergency core cooling system

. pumps to inject water-into the i reactor is not 'in the interest of plant safety, because this cooler water would create an undesirable power transient. _In'. addition, neither the Low Pressure Core Spray nor Residual Heat Removal pumps are capable of opening their injection valves against full reactor pressure. Mechanically exercising - these valves during reactor operation is not practical because they are located inside the drywell and-access is restricted due to radiation conditions.

Mechanically exercising these valves on a cold shutdown frequency as allowed _ by the ASME Code is not practical. because the air ! operator is not designed to_ perform a full stroke test. Although. !~ the air operator can be removed to perform the full stroke test,. this is a significant maintenance activity and could interfere with work which is necessary to restore the plant to serNice. This-would create an unreasonable hardship for Illinois Power Company. l l D

Using pump pressure'to exercise-these valves-during cold shutdown is also not in the interest of plant safety.- Although tenparature could be matched - fairly closely between the inj ection- f source (emergency core cooling systems) and the reactor,-a minor thermal mismatch between these temperatures creates'an undesirable effect-on the fatigue life of the reactor nozzles. In addition, the injection lines associated with the residual heat removal . system nozzles are not_ equipped with internal spargers.- General Electric Service Information Letter 401 identifies problems

in injecting wator through this flow path and the potential damage to nuclear instrumentation or fuel assemblics which could occur if this flow path were used for other than emergency' conditions.

( RELIEF REQUEST NO. 2018 (Revision 1) COMPONENT INFORMATION Reverse flaw check valve lE12-F475 is a containment i' solation valve- and provides necessary thermal relief for the Residual Heat Removal System piping between valves IE12-F008 and lE12-F009. It is an ASME Section III Code Class 2, Section XI Category A/C valve. It is a one

                           ~

inch check valve and is highlighted on the attached drawing. CODE REQUIREMENT . l Th'e ASHE Code Section XI, Subar.ticle'IWV-3521 requires that this valve be exercised every three (3) months. RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION Illindis Power Company 'reque'sts relief from the Code requirements for t,he following reasons: } This valve is installed in the piping of the shutdown cooling ' ' - mode of operation of the Residual Heat Removal System and is (k loca.ted inside the drywell. Daring normal operation, this line stem. Thethis is pressurized by the reactor recirculation sy. Therefore, valve is not designed to open against_this pressure. valve cannot be exercised quarterly. - This valve cannot be exercised during cold shutdowns since the shutdown cooling mode of the Residual Heat Removal System will be inservice. As this line is pressurized at all times during the cold shutdowns, an' exercise test is not feasible. In refueling - outages, the shutdown cooling and reactor recirculation can be isolated prior to reactor startup to facilitate the operating of this valve. ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED Illinois Power Company will exercise this valve during refueling outages. (

configuration of this valve in the system. CODE REQUIREMENT . The ASMY Code Section XI, Subarticle IWV-3521 requires check-  ; valves to be exercised to their safety position .every three (3)  ; months. , 1 l RELIEF ~ REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION Illinois Power 'ompany C requests relief from the Code requirements- i because there is no way to functionally test this valve withoute performing a-leak rate test. . No direct containment leakage path is available through this valve. The leakage path through t:21s^ , valve is limited by the pipe cap and the piping connections to the actuator. As the probability for lea?, age through these y

ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED' Illinois Power Company will satisfy che exercise reqOirement for l this % inch check valve upon-performance of the leak rate test. i The frequency of the exercise 1 test will be revised to coincide i with the leak rate frequency, i.e., 2 years. 9 9 i t k l Cnn*4nn YT I T R T l ') A -

ILLINOIS POWER COMPANY CLINTON POWER STATION SECTION XI. RELIEF REQUEST. ( RELIEF REQUEST No. 2023 COMPONENT INFORMATION tvu - Valve,ll5 (typical of.145 each) is the control rod drive. accumulator supply check valves refer to attached drawing. These are Category A/C %-inch check valves. These valves allow the

              - individual accumulators to be charged with sufficient pressure to scram the appropriate control rod drive upon loss of CRD header pressure. ,With a loss of header pressure, these valves must close to maintain enough. pressure in the accumulator to insert the CRDs.

CODE REQUIREMENT Section XI, Subarticle IWV-3521 requires check valves to be exercised to their safety position every threek(3) months. tested every 2 IWV-3420 requires Category A v years to verify the component',alves to be leas ability to perform function. RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION ' Illinois Power Company requests relief from the above Code (' - . requirements because it is not' feasible to individually the reverseexercise flow these valves wi'thout securing the CRD pumps, exerc.ising *and leakage tests. of these. check valves- will be satisfied by the performance of an accumulator pressure drop This test, with the pumps secured .during refueling outages. test will verity the valve is closed by monitoring ~the. . accumulator pressure waich would indicate any leakage past the check valve. . ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED Illinois Power Company will satisfy the leakage and exercise e tests,for these valves-upon performance of the accumulator ' pressure drop test on a refueling outage frequency. e

Valve 126 is a-power. operated, category B, 1" diaphragm operated control valve. This valve opens to allow flow to scram the control rod drive. Valve 127 is a power operated, Category B ,- 3/4" diaphragm operated control valve. This valve opens to allow flow to exhaust from the centrol rod drive to the scram discharge volume. Valve 13 9 ~1s a power operated, Category B, pilot air valve. This valve opens to relieve pressure to valves 126 and 127-which causes them to open. Valve 114 is a 3/4" check valve,- (\ Category C.

CODE REQUIREMENT Section XI, Subarticle 1WV-3521 requires check valves to be exercised to their safety position every three (3) months. RELIEF REQUEST /JUSTIFICATIOJ Failure of these valves to reverse flow exercise w'ould be identified by performing a " notch" test. The notch test is required per Technical Specification 4.1.3.1.2 which moves each withdrawn CRD one notch every 7 days and every 24 hours if one CRD is immovable as a result of friction. The failure of valve 138 would be determined by the inability to meet the acceptance , criteria of this surveillance.

It is not practical to record individual stroke time for these valves without extensive modifications, which would create a financial hardship to Illinois Power Company. Technical Specification 4.8.1.1.2 requires each diesel' generator to be tested at least every 31-days. These tests are designed--to test the diesel generator as a unit, but do not specifically verify actuation of each individual valve.

COMPONENT INFORMATION Valve IC41-F336 is a check valve' downstream of the Standby Liquid Control (SC) pump and is physically located inside the drywell. - This is an ASME S6ction III Class 1, 'Section XI Category A/C, a 4-inch check valve.- The valve is circled on-the-attached drawing.- j CODE REQUIREMENT The ASME Code, Section XI, Subarticle IWV-3521 requires that this check valve be full stroke -exercised every three (3) months. b RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION < l Illinois Power Company requests relief from the Code requirement 1 for the following reasons: > This check valve it; downstream of the explosive injection valves- . which are only required to be opened during refueling; outages. ' The check valve is totally enclosed without any provisions ~for exercising the valve externally. ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED , s Illinois Power Company will full stroke exercise this check valve ( every refueling outage. The open direction exercise will b6 - verified with system flow and the closed direction exercise will be verified with a leakage test. i F l i I ! ( - Section XI/ISI/40

( ILLINOI POWER COMPANY Clinton Power Station ASME Section XI Relief Request RELIEP REQUEST 2032 (Revision 2) This Relief Request refers to COMPONENT _INFORMATION Power ( Air) Operated valves with a stroke time of 10 seconds or less (see Table 2032-1). It should be noted that changes to plant design may result in revisions to Tabic 2032-1. These changes may be implemented prior to submittal of the revised table to the NRC. The ASME Code Section XI, CODE. REQUIREMENTS.. Subarticle IWV-3417 (a) requires increasing the testing frequency to monthly for a 50% increase from the previous stroke time test. ( Per Generic Letter 89-04 these RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION valves are defined as rapid acting (with a normal stroke time of less than 10 seconds), where a 2 second increase can cause the testing frequency for the valves to be increased from quarterly to monthly. CPS's operating - experience has shown that when placed on increased frequency for minor increases in stroke time (1 - 2 seconds), none of these valves were found to have a physical problem and all ^ were subsequently returned to normal frequency.

                                                                                                                                             '  Illinois Power Company prol.oses ALTERNATE 1 TESTING PROPOSED :                                                                                        to evaluate the test results for the air-operated valves on Tatle 2032-1     in    accordance                             with Generic Letter 89-04, Positions 5 and 6, and the Minutes of the Public Meetings on Generic Letter 89-04, page 26, Response to Question 40. Specifically, CPS has established a reference value for each valve in Table 2032-1 based upon each valve's performance history and average stroke time when it is in good condition and operating properly.                                      Should any valve's stroke time increase by more than 50% from the valve's reference value, CPS will concider this to be an indication of potential valve degradation and increase the valve's testing frequency.

6 ILLINOIS POWER COMPANY Clinton Power Station ASME Section X1 Helief Request RELIEF REQUEST 2033 (Revision 1) Valves 1G33-F051 and 1G33-COMPONENT INFORMATION FOS 2A/B are the injection check valves-which complete the flow path between the Reactor Water Cleanup (RT) System and the Reactor Pressure Vessel. These valves are ASME Section III Code Class 2, Section XI Category B valves. They are 4-inch check valyco of identical design and are circled on the attached drawing. The ASME Code, Section XI, CODE REQUIREMENTS Subarticle IWV-3520 requires that these valves be full-stroke exercised individually every three (3) months. 1G33-F052A/B are parallel valves RELIEF REQUEST /JUSTIFICATICH in the piping system and both of these valves ar6 in series with 1G33-F051. These valves are located in series with no test connections provided totween them to permit individual valve testing. i These valves cannot be individually exercised every three (3) months since they are located in the Gteam Tunnel and physical access is restricted during normal plant operation d',m to the high radiation-field in this area. Testing these valves during cold shutdown will either require the Reactor Water Cleanup -(RT) System to.be out of service or_will require flow to be bypassed to the condenser. Testing these valves with RT system flow bypassed to the condenser may create spurious dif ferential flow nignals and may cause containment isolation valves in this system to isolate and subsequently trip the RT pumps, which will=likely rhquire filing a

               . Licensee Event Report (LER).                             Either method will cause the RT system to be out of service and create potentini delay for_ plant
              - startup.                     This will cause unnecessary hardship for Illinois Power                                                                  .

Relief RcQttell_2334 - Attachment 1 ( The following is an idealized model of valvo leakago as diagramod in Figuro 1. The purposo of this modelis to demonstrato that leakago, typical of the typo of leakage ' which would be created by abrasivo particles bcing ground across the valvo sont, can be measured prior to component degradation using an acceptanco critoria of 20,000 standard cubic contimotors por minuto (secm). Using this acceptanco critoria, leakago path size is calculated using a given differential pressure. This is typical of a problem oncountored in the field when perforrning local leak rato testing (LLRT). 1 For the purpose of this calculation, the leakago path is assumod to be a square edged ) orifice. This assumption is representative of a scratch across a valvo seat mado by a ) abrasivo particle or the type of leakago path which an LLRT is designed to measure. l Using the Roactor Coolant System as an examplo, the normal or averago particio sizo l' Is 18 microns 1, or 7.1 x 10 4 inches. As the calculation will demonstrato, 20,000 scem is a conservative acceptanco critoria which will allow adequate monitoring of component degradation prior to failure. Further, a valve which falls to fully seat will produce leakage rates which are soveral orders of magnitudo greator than the acceptance critoria used for valve testing. (' ELGURE__t

ILLINOIS POWER C0!iPANY l CLI!!T0li POWER STATION SECTIOli XI RELIEF REQUEST RELIEF REQUEST No. 3001 (Revision 1) COMP 0t1EllT INFORMATION These pumps (see Table 3001-1) are to safely shutdown the reactor or to mitigate the consequences of an accident. They include all of'the pumps in the IST Program except the RCIC Pump. These pumps are identified in Table 3001-1 by their Equipment

              -                       Identification Number, Name, and ASME Section III Code Class.

CODE REOUIREMEtiT The ASME Code Section XI, Subsection IWP-4310 requires the measurement of these pumps' bearing temperature annuall'y, RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION Illinois Power Company requests relief from the Code requirements for the following reasons: The measurement of these pu=ps ' bearing temperature annually does not increase cny confidence in the reliability of the pumps-because bearing temperature rises just minutes prior to failure of the pump bearing. In order to measure this parameter, bearing ((. - temperature,is required to be stabilized per IWP-3500(b), which requires the pump .co be running at least an hour. Since this bearing temperature measurement does not increase any confidence in the pumps' reliability and will reduce the pumps' life due to the time recuired to run the pump, this measurement does not provide' meaningful data. Ther' efore, measurement of these pumps ' , bearing temperatures annually as required by the Code will not .be performed. ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED . None. I Section XI/ISI/60

1 i 4 ILLINOIS POWER COMPANY Clinton Power Station l ASME Section XI Relief Request RELIEF REQUEST 3002 (Revision 3) This relief request refers to COMPO!1ENT INFORMATION three (3) Diesel Fuel 011 (DO) , transfer pumps (1D00lPA, ' 1D001PB, and 1D001PC). These pumps are used to transfer diesel fuel from the diesel storage tanks to the diesel fuel day tanks. The pumps are ASME Section > III, Code Class 3. All of the pumps are Delaval IMO type N3DBS-137. CPS tests the pumps at a fixed dif ferential pressure (DP) of 13 psid, with baseline flow rates ranging from 16.424 to 18.13 gpm. The ASME Code, Section XI, CODE REQUIREMENTS Subsection IWP-3210 tabulates the allowable-- rangos of inservice test quantities (flow rate) in relation tc the reference or baseline values. Table IWP-3100-2 requires an acceptable flow rate range of 0.94 to 1.02 of baseline flow rate, and an Alert range of 0.9 to 1.03 of baseline flow rate. l These pumps do not have flow RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION rate instrumentation installed. A calculation is used to determine a flow rate. Because the 00-pumps operate at a low flow and the code specified acceptable ranges are based upon a percentage of the baseline, an increase in flow of less than 0.5 gpm (1.02 x baseline flow rato) - is sufficient to force any of the pumps into the Required Action range. (SEE GRAPH 1) The design- required fuel delivery rates for each of the diesel generators (supplied by the day tanks which the DO pumps maintain) is considerably less than the rated; fuel delivery of any of the three Do pumps. The diesel engines are e pipped with skid mounted pumps which supply fuel oil at a rate of 4 gpm per engine. The engines consume less than 3 gpm per engine with the excess routed back to the day tank. Pumps 1DOO1PA and 1D001PB supply 2 engines each and therefore- 8 gpm has been determined to be the limiting flow rate required - for these pumps to ensure adequate fuel , delivery. Pump 1D001PC supplies only l' engine and- therefore has a = limiting flow rate of 4 gpm.. CPS believes ~that due to the low flow characteristics of the DO-pumps and the significant margin of safety between the flow 9

1 Based upon CPS's operating experience, Illinois Power believes that the revised upper ranges will provide good indication of pump degradation without the unnecessary burdon of requiring the pumps- j to be tested on an increased frequency or declared inoperable for , minor ( < 0. 5.gpm ) variations in flowrates.

The Standby Liquid Control Pumps (lC41-C001A and C001B) supply a neutron absorbing solution into the reactor in sufficient concentration and quantity to overcome the mdximum positive reactivity. .These pumps arc ASKE Section III: Code Class 2 and arc. highlighted on the attached drawing. CODE REQUIREMENT , The ASME Code Section XI, Subsection IWP-3500(a) requires that when measurement)of the b. caring. temperature is not req.uired, - these pumps shall be run at l' east five (5) minutes under con'ditions as stable as the-system permits. At the end of this time, at,least one measupement or observation.of each of-the-quantities specified shall be made and recorded.

                  ,                              RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION Illinois Power Company requests relief from the Code requirements for'the following reasons:

( r.

                           ,i' Plant domineralized water is utili:cd to perform the quarterly
tests for these pumps. The discharge of these gumps is collected in the Test Tank. The capacity of.the. Test Tani does not permit running these pumps for.five (5) minutes.

Since these p~ umps are positive displacement type pumps and the inlet water is at a constant temperature, the flow conditions will be stabilized within a few seconds of' starting the pumps.. Letting the pumps run one (1) minute before measuring / observing the required parameters will ensure the flow conditions are stabilized.

ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED Illi,nois Power Company will perform the required testing ..

quarterly and all of the requiredLparameters will be observed / measured and recorded after the-pumps have been running. at least one minute but prior to running fo~r five minutes.  ;

This relief request pertains to

      .C0!4PollE!1T 111Folt!4ATIOli                   the four (4) water-leg pumpa (1E12-C003,    1E21-C002,   1E22-C003, and 1ES2-C003) in the CPS IST program. Thane pumps are required to unintain the water level in the annociated ECCS nystems to ensure the prevention of a water-hammer transient in the event of an ECCS initiation. In addition, these pumpa have nimilar chara teristica. All four are Gould model 3196 ST, with the primary dif ference being impeller diameter. They are tected at flows ranging from 50 to 64.5 gpm with baccline diff crential preunuren (DP) ranging from 44.4 to 40.3 paid for the 1E12-C003, 1E21-C002, and 1E22-C003 pumpn and 29.4 paid for 1E51-C003. All pumps are ASliE Code Clacs 2.

The AS!4E Code Section XI, CODE lllEQUIREliE!JTS Subsection IWP-3210 tabulates the allowable and alert rangen ( - of incorvice test quantitles (differential preocure (DP)) in relation to the reference, or baneline, valucc. Table IWP-3100 -2 r,qquirca an acceptable DP range of 0.93 baseline DP to 1.02 baceline DP and an alert range of 0.9 baseline DP to 1.03 baceline DP. Locause the water-leg pumps RELIEF REQUEST /JUSTIFICATIott operate at a low DP and the. Code cpecified acceptable rangen are baced on a percentage of the baseline, a small increase in DP can result in the pump reaching the alert or action range when the pump in operating within design parametern. Using data for the !!PCS water-leg pump (1E22-C003) as a representative example, which han a baseline DP of 48.5 psid, the Code-required acceptable range varien from 45.1 to 49.5 paid, or less than 4.4 paid (SEE GRAPfl 1) . Likewise the Code-required alert range for 1E22-C003 varico from 43.7 to 50 paid, f or a range of 6.3 paid. CPS believen the lower acceptable and alert range boundaries (0.93  ; and 0.9 of baseline DP) are achievable without undue hardship, j l llowever, baned upon the Code required upper acceptable and alert 1 range boundaries of 1.02 and 1 03 baseline DP) a deviation of only l((r l 1.0 psid above baseline DP is sufficient to force any of the CPS waterleg pumps onto increased frequency, and an increace greater l l i l l l

Based upon CPS's operating experience, CPS fools that the revised upper ranges will provido good indications of pump degradation without the unnecessary burden of requiring the pumps to be-tested , , on increased frequency or declaring them inoperable for minor (1.to 2 paid) variations in DP (SEE GRAPil 2). CPS has ovaluated minor , fluctuations of this type and has determined that this performanco 7 is not an indication of pump degradation, and the pumps are  ! operating within design allowable limits.

j allows lines meeting the above conditions to be exempt fro'm  ; the Code requirements of IWC-2500. Although Illinois Power does not intend to invoke this-Code Case in it's entirety, , this relief request is based on the Code Case's exemption from examining certain open-ended pipes and the fact that-leakage from any of the associated welds on these pipes would be-insignificant land would have no adverse safety impact on " the plant. .

RELIEF REQUEST / JUSTIFICATION Illinois Power Company requests relief from performing any VT-4 i examinations for the following reasons:

1. The definition of VT-4 cxamination in the 80W81 Code does not clearly identify the attributes to be conside.ted in developing the inspection criteria,
2. Functional testing of snubbers required by Clinton Power Station (CPS) Technical Specifications is more stringent than this Cc,Je requirement.
3. The 83W84 Code has been clarified by combining the Visual Examinations VT-3 and VT- 4.

( If relief is granted, Illinois Power will update the applicab_- procqdures to not only delete the references to VT-4, but to include the revised VT-3 examination requirements from the 83WE4 Code in our program. ALTERNATE TESTING PROPOSED Illinois Power will perform VT-0 examinations using the definition from the 83W84 Code in lieu of performing VT-3 and VT-4 examinations in accordance with 80W81 requirements. Functional tecting will be performed in accordance with CPS Technical Specifications. s Sec t-i on KT /T ST /fn _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ - - _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ - _
