However,if the results of design bases events and severe accident, such an evaluation for a speelfic site are unacceptable, site specific evacuation and shiciding 2.2.1 Design Hases Events parameters may be substituted in lieu of the -

characteristics do not exceed the capability of the design.
2.2.2 Severe Accidents The ABWR PRA results were calculated for an average or typical site, as outlined in Subsection 19E.3. Although these results form a good basis for assessing the general ABWR capability to satisfy offsite dose related goals, they do not form a basis for concluding that the ABWR would meet dose reWcd goals at a specific site whose characteristics ensaot be defined at the point of ABWR certification. Consistent with the certification concept that all key technicalissues be resolved before certification,it is appropriate to define the piocess for determining future site acceptability.
This process is defined below in terms of (1) acceptance criteria, (2) data input, and (3) analysis, Acceptance Criteria: Site acceptability for severe accidents will be based upon a calculation using the CRAC 2 computer code. The results of such a calculation will be compared to the goal. of Table 19E.3 7 as shown in Table 2.21. The site will be deemed acceptable if the results fall within the given
- goals, Data Inout: The input to the CRAC 2 computer code will be a combination of ABWR and site parameters.
The CRAC 2 code input is divided into specific areas. The areas defined in Table 2.2 2 as ABWR will be used as input with their specific data listed in Appendix 2A The areas defined as GENERAL are also provided in Appendix 2A. The areas defined as Amendment 25 2.21

ABWR zwim Etandfinifjnnt lov n 435.37 \\d in the description of the DC power system in section 8.3.2.1 it is stated that the operating voltage range of Class 1E DC loads is 105 to 140 V. It is also stated that maximum equalizing charge voltage for Class 1E batteries is 140 VDC, and the DC system minimum discharge voltage at the end of tne discharge period is 1.75 VDC per cell. For a 125 VDC lead acid battery with 60 cells.1.75 VDC per cell equates to a final discharge voltage of 105 "DC at the battery terminals. This is the same as the stated minimum operating voltage of the Class 1E de loads. There is therefore no allowance for voltage drop from the battery terminals to the terminals of the Class 1E loads at the final voltage value of 1.75 VDC per cell. Please address this discrepancy. Also, provide the results of your DC voltage analysis showing battery terminal voltage and worst case DC load terminal voltage at each step of the Class 1E battery loading profile. See the following question with regard to the battery loading profile. 435.38 Section 8.3.2.1 addresses the DC power systems in general and section 8.3.2.1.3.2 specifically addresses battery capacity. With regard to battery capacity, section 8.3.2.1.3.2 states that battery capacity is sufficient to satisfy a safety load demand profile under the conditions of a LOCA and loss of preferred power, the batteries have sufficient stored energy to operate connected essential loads continuously for at least two hours without recharging. (a) Provide the stated load demand profiles and a breakdown of the loading during this demand. (b) Provide the manufacturer's ampere hour rating of the batteries at the two hour rate and at the eight hour rete, and provide the one minute ampere rating of the barriert,. (c) Address station blackout with regard to battery capacity. If a station blackout coping analysis is being prepared for the ABWR, provide a battery load demand profile for the coping duration. Provide a breakdown of the loading during this demand. 435.39 in $cction 6.3.2.1 it is stated that each 125 VDC battery is provided with a charger and a standby charger shared by two divisions, each of which is capable of recharging its battery from a discharged state to a fully charged state while handling the normal, steady state DC load. (a) Provide the continuous and current limited output ratings of the battery chargers. (b) in accordance with position C.1.b of R.G.1.32, Rev 2 verify that the capacity of the battery charger supply is based on the hted combined demands of the various steady state loads and the charging capacity to restore the battery from the design minimum charge state to the fully charged state, irrerpective of the charge status of the plant during which these demands occur. (c) Verify that the battery charger can operate stably as a battery eliminator (i.e., with the charger remaining connected to supply the loads while the battery is disconnected from the loads). (d) Verify that no reverse DC current can flow into the battery charger output from the battery, during periods of low AC input battery charger voltage or during total loss of low AC input voltage to the charger, tO Arnendment 10 20.2-14.10 l

If not, they should be, or else redur.Jant qualified breakers should be provided. 435.41 Section 8.3.2.1.2 very generally identifies the type of loads fed from the 125 VDC Class 1E power system. Please provide a more specific breakdown of the loads fed from each division of the 125 VDC Class 1E power system. 435.42 l In Section 8.3.2.1.3 it is stated that an emergency eyewash is installed in each battery room. In order to ensure that water cannot be int.dvertently splashed on the batteries the eyewash stations should be located away from the batteries and the eyewash installation and its piping should be seismically qualified. Please verify that this is the case. 435.43 Section 8.3.2.1.3.3 states that battery rooms are ventilated to remove the minor amounts of gas produced during charging of battenes. Verily that, in accordance with position C.1 of R.G.1.128 the ventilation system will limit hydrogen concent. ration to less than two percent by volume at any location within the battery area. Also, in accordance, with position C.6.e of R.G.1.1.28, verify that ventilation air flow sensors are installed in the battery rooms with their associated alarms installed in the control room. 435.44 With regard to the DC power systems, section 8.3.2.2.1 states that all abnormal conditions of important system parameters such as charger failure or low bus voltage are annunciated in the main control roorn and/or locally. Please identify the specific meters and alarms used for monitoring the status of the Ct. ass 1E DC power systems and indicate weather they are located in the main control room and/or locally.

(15.2.2.2.1.4) 420.123 SSAR 15B.4 describes the essential multiplexing system (EhtS) in some detail. SSAR FMure 7A.21 states that the design is not limited to this configuretion. It is understanding that the EhtS design -
is still in a preliminary design stage. Is SSAR 15B.4 still accurate and is the design limited to (] that configuration? (15B4) l V 420.124 The Ph1EA submitted in SSAR 15B.4 is inadequate for a safety evaluation supporting the design certification. The Ph1EA appears to the str.M ', be oversimplified with one line item each for component failures and does not address potential software complications. The staff requests clarification of how this Fh1EA was developed given that the syst,m design has not been finalized. The staff also believes that software failures need to be evaluated. The failure modes investigated should include, as a minimum, stall, runaway, lockup, interruption / restoration, clock and timing faults, counter overflow, missing / corrupt data, and effects of hardware faults on software.(15D4) 430.58 The accident analyzed under this section considers only the airborne radioactivity that may be released due to potential failure of a concentrated waste tank in the radwaste enclosure. The SRP acceptance criteria, however, requires demonstration that the liquid radwaste concentration at the nearest potable water supply in an unrestricted area resulting from transport of the liquid radwaste to the unrestricted area does not exceed the radionuclide concentration limits specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B Table II, Column 2. Such a demonstration will require information on possible dilution and/or decay during transit which, in turn, will depend upon site specific data such as surfere and ground water hydrology and the parameters governing liquid waste movement through the soil. Additionally, special design features (e.g., steel liners or walls in the radwaste enclosure) may be provided as part of the liquid radwaste treatment systems at certain sites. The staff will, therefore, review the site specific characteristics rnentioned above individually for each plant referencing the ABWR and confine its review of ABWR, only to the choiec of the liquid radwaste tank. ( Therefore, provide informadan on the following: (15.73) w Amendocnt 2$ 20.2-21
ABWR ammxt SLpndard Plant ntw n (a) Basis for determining the concentrated waste tank as the worst tank (this may very well be the case, but in the absence of information on the capacities of major tanks, particularly the waste holdup tanks, it is hard to conclude that the above tank both in terms of radionuclide concentrations and inventories will turn out to be the worst tank). (b) Radionuclide source terms, particularly for the long-lived radionuclides such as Cs-137 and Sr.90 (these may be the critical isotopes for sites that can claim only decay credit during transit) in the major liquid radwaste tanks. 440.108 Provide further justification for the fact that the input parameters and initial conditions for analyzed events are conservative. Provide a list of what parameters will be checked at startup and I which will be in the Technical Specifications. You should define the range of operating conditions and fuel types for which your input parameters will remain valid. For example, would these parameters valid for 9x9 or ;x7 fuel or similar large change in the fact lattice. (15) 470.1 Subsection 15.6.2 of the ABWR FSAR provides your analysis for the radiological consequences of a failure of small lines carrying primary coolant outside of containment.

Your evalution dould iralude lines that meet GDC 55 as well as small lines exempt from GDC 55, 470.2 O Provide a justification for your assumption that the plant continues to operate (and therefore no iodine peaking is experien:ed) during a small line break outside containment (Subsection 15.6.2) accident scenario. Also provide the basis for the assumption that the release duration is only two hours. 4703 Subsection 15.6.4.5.1.1 of the FSAR gives the iodine source term (concentration and isotopic mix) used to analyze the steam line break outside of containment accident. The noble gas source term, however, is not addressed, Provide the noble gas source term used. Also, the table in Subsection 15.6.4.5.1.1 seems heavily weighted to the shorter lived activities (i.e., (1134). Provide the bases for the isotopic mix used in your analysis (iodine and noble gas). 470.4 Subsection 15.6.5.5 states that the analysis is based on assumptions provided in Regulatory Guide 13 except where noted. For all assumptions (e.g., release assumed to occur one hour after accident initiation, the chemical species fractions for iodine, the temporal decrease in primary containment leakage rates, credit for condenser leakage rates, and dose conversion factors) which deviate from NRC guidance such as regulatory guides and ICRP2, provide a detailed description of the justification for the deviation or a reference to another section of the SSAR where the deviations are discussed in detail. Provide a comparison of the dose estimates using these assumptions versus those which would resuit from using the NRC guidance. O Amendment 25 20.2-21.1 l

What is the justification for that assumption? 470.7 The tables in Chapter 15 should be checked and revised as appropriate. In several cases the footnotes contain typographical errors related to defining the scientific notation.

Murley, NRR, to Ricardo Artigas, G.E. dated August 7,1987, the staff presided the ABWR licensing review bases as well as the scope and content of the ABWR Standard Safety Analysis Report (SSAR). In Section 8.7, Water Chemistry Guidelines, of the referenced letter, it states that G.E. has commited to using BWR Owners Group water chemistry guidelines. These guidelines are necessary to maintain proper water chemistry in BWR cooling systems to prevent intergranular stress corrision cracking of auustenitic stainless steel piping and components and to minimize corrision and erosion /corrision induced piping wall thinning in single-phase and two-phase high energy carbon steel piping. Water chemistry is also important for the minimization of plant radiation levels due to activated corrision products. Section 10.4.63 of the ABWR indicates that the condensate cleanup system complies with Regulatory Guide 1.56. Section 10.4 should indicate that the system meets the guidelines published in: EPRI NP 4947 SR, BWR 11ydrogen Water Chemistry Guidelines 1987 Revision, dated October 1988. EPRI NP 5283-SR-A, Guidelines for Permanent BWR llydrogen Water Chemistry-1987 Revision, dated September 1987. The use of zine injection as a means of controlling UWR radiation field build-up should be dicussed. RESPONSE 281.15 A new Subsection 93.9 has been added to describe the hydrogen addition system. Revised Subsection 5.23 indicates that the guidelines in EPRI NP-4947 SR, BWR Ilydrogen Water Chemistry Guidelines 1987 p Revision, October 1988 and EPRI NP-5283-SR-A, Guidelines for Permanent BWR liydrogen Water Chemistry-1987 Revision, September 1987 will be met. This is also indicated in new Subsection 93.9, s Subsection 93.11 has been added to describe the zine addition system. QUESTION 281.16 In Section 10.4.63, the ABWR SSAR indicates that the. condensate cleanup system removes some radioactive material, activated corrision products and fission products that are carried over from the reactor. More important functions involve removal of coridensate system corrision products, and possible impurities from condenser leakage to assure meeting BWR liydrogen Water Chemistry Guidelines. This should be discussed. RESPONSE 210.16 Subsection 5.23.2.23 has been modified to discuss the removal of condensate system corrision and possible impurities from condenser icakage. QUESTION 210,17 The condensate (Figure 10.4-4) and feedwater (Figure 10.4-7) system diagrams do not indicate the location of the oxygen injection into the condensate system and hydrogen and zinc oxide into the feedwater system. This information should be provided. O Amendment 11 20.3-311

The location of hyd ogen adJition to the feedwater system will be shown in Subsection 93.9. The location of zine addition to the feedwater system is in Subsection 93.11. QUESTION 210.18 Section 10.4 does not discuss design improvements invohing material selection, water chemistry, system temperatures, piping design and hydrodynamic conditions that are necessary to control erosion / corrosion. The - EPRI CHEChtATE or other crosion/ corrosion computer codes may be useful design tools to minimize wall thinning due to crosion/ corrosion. The ABWR SSAR should discuss design considerations to minimize crosion/ corrosion and procedures and administrative controls to assure that the structuralintegrity of sirigle-phase and two-phase high energy carbon steel piping system is maintained. RESPONSE 210.18 l A discussion on the control of erosion corrosion of carbon steel has been added to Subsectic<n 5.23.2.23. QUESTION 420.123 (15B4) S3AR 15B.4 describes the essential multiplexing system (EhQ in some detail. SSAR Figu e 7A.2-1 states that the design is not limited to this configuration. It is our understanding that the EMS design 'l is stillin a preliminary design stage. Is SSAR 15B.4 still' accurate and is the design limited sto that configuration? RESPONSE 420.123 SSAR 15B.4 is an accurate system level description of EMS and reflects the components described in the ~ EMS design specification and SSLC design specification, and is the chosen system conGguration. The exact hardware implementation is not specified for design certification, since potential vendors could accomplish the multiplexing functions in several ways, given the restriction that qualification requirements must be met, liowever, certain design details to be imposed on such vendors are discussed in the various responses given in SSAR 7A.2. liardware and software ("firmware") requirements down to the module level of the equipment are described. I The EMS design is presently defined to the level of the type of processing components needed to perform the data transmission task. The design requires remote multiplexing units, control room multiplexing units and fiber optic interconnecting links. The bi-directional, dual redundant token ring topology is the chosen configuration for these components, and is the configuration shown in SSAR Figure 7A.21. However, the multiplexing tasks shown in the figure could also be accomplished by the same components arranged in a star, l bus, or point to-point architecture (all still using a dual redundant configuration). This part of the design will be determined during the detailed design phase, depending upon the required system speed (data throughput), response time, the vendor's communications protocols, error detection / correction methods, and available hardware / software designs. GE believes that specifying the exact EMS configuration at the design certification stage could skew competitive bidding for potential vendors of the equipment. The system requirements imposed on the multiplexed safety system design (e.g., single failure proof, signal isolation,2-out of-4 system logic, bypassing of failcd components, self test, easy repair, periodic surveillance, highly reliable materials, verification and validation of software, and integration testing) are sufficient to provide a qualified design.

However, near the electrical to opticalinterfaces (')\\ at the transmitting and receiving cabinets, the equipment imernals must be protected from EMl/RFI effects, C such as that produced by keying portable radio transceivers near control cabinets. Protection can take the form of RF shielding of instruments and cabinets, proper instrument grounding and power distribution grounding, and filtering of input / output signal and power line conductors, as recommended in ABWR system design documents. Tests to demonstrate immunity of safety protection equipment to radio transceiver broadcasts will be developed using guidelines described in the following documents: (1) ANSI /IEEE C37.90.2 - 1987,IEEE Trial-Use Standard, Withstand Capability of Relay Systems to Radiated Electromagnetic Interference from Transceivers. Section 5.5.3 of this standard describes tests for digital equipment using clocked logic circuits. Thus, appropriate pre-operational or periodic surveillance tests will be developed for protective relays,if used, and for microivocessor-be ed EMS /SSLC equi en: rpec:hed n; +.BWR design docements.

However, specific cables (power and instrumentation) were not identified in the equipment listings (Tables 9A.b-1 and 9A.b.2). The failure of these cables will have to be included in a safe shutdown analysis. Additionally, the equipment listed in these two tables showed that equipment powered by separate divisions of AC power (Division 1 and 2 for example) are located in the same reactor building Gre zones. From the information in Appendix 9A,it is nbt possible to determine if the failure of this equipment could affect the operability of required safe shutdown equipment in other fire areas. This equipment should be addressed in the safe shutdown analysis, including an associated circuit analysis. (9.5.1) RESPONSE 430316 (A) The power and instrumentation cables for each piece of equipment are considered to be part of the equipment listed in Tables 9A,6-1 & 9A.6-2, and therefore, are not listed separately (see Table 9A.6 and 2 notes). The Gre hazard analysis included these cables as part of the equipment located within the Erc area, and their failure was considered as part of the equipment failure in the safe shutdown analysis.

ABWR nunwr Shwiilrd Plant mp l A new Subsect on,9.51.2.11 has been cdded. Information for the remainder of the response to this i question is 14en from there. The systems whose primary functions are to provide core cooling, and to bring the plant to a safe shutdown condition, have three independent mechanical and electrical safety related divisions (mechanical Divisions A, B, C and electrical Divisions I,II, III). Each division is capable of bringing the plant to a safe shtadown condition whether the system is initiated manually or automatically. The plant layout is such that redundant portions of safety related systems are located in different fire areas, therefore if one division becomes disabled due to a fire (complete burnout is acceptable) there are still two independent redundant divisions available to provide core cooling. The system initiation logic is two-out of.four logic, but if one division becomes disabled (e.g., due to a fire) the system initiation logic reverts to two-out of three logic. The initiation circuitry is located in the control room. There are some instances where, for overriding technical reasons, equipment from more than one safety division is purposely mounted in the same nie area. For example, the equipment mounted in Rocm 110 of the reactor building is for the Division I portion of the RHR system. There are also two leak detection thermocouples of Divisions I and 11 mounted in the same room. The Division 11 leak detection tiiermocouple provides redundancy for leak detection initiation to control the singic division of equipment contained in the room. if the room is burned out completely, the loss of Division Iis acceptable, because there are two independent redundant divisions (II, & 111) available in different fire areas of the building to bring the plant to a safe thutdown condition. The loss of the Division 11 leak detection thermocouples is acceptable because their loss will not impair the operation of the remaining portion of the Division 11 leak detectioc system (because of the nature of the thermocouple itself and its operation, the loss would be isolated locally. The acceptability of each case of intruding divisional devices, su ch as this, is analyzed on a case-by case basis and reported in Section 9A.5. In summary, each safety-related device (cables included) is assigncd to a safety division. External to the control room and primary containment, devices of different safety divisions are located in different fire areas unless over-riding technical considerations dictate exceptions. All exceptions are analyzed and the analysis reported in Section 9A.5. l With the above facts known and a set of fire area separation drawings,(Figure 9A.41 through 9A.4-32), it is possible to confirm the acceptability of the chosen locations for the devices listed on Tables 9A.6-1 and 9A.6-2. (B) Due to the attention paid to separation and the isolation capabilities of the fiber optic data transmission systems, there are no associated circuits in the ABWR Standard Plant Design. QUESTION 430317 Section 9.5.1.2.1 should be expanded to include the fire protection water supply system. RESPONSE 430317 The fire protection water supply system is discussed in Subsection 9.5.1.2.5 as part of Amendment 14. QUESTION 430.318 Section 9.5.1.2.2 states that a manually operated carbon dioxide (CO2) fire suppression system will be provided for the diesel generated rooms, including the day tank rooms. This does not correspond to the guidance provided in NUREG-0800, CMEB BTP 9.51, Section C.7.i which specifies automatic fire suppression for the emergency diesel generators. This section should be changed to show automatic fire suppression or expanded tojustify how manual suppression provides either equivalent or superior protection. Amendment 25 201 376}}
