Y o private organizations. My work has included project ,

coordination for a'PRA study on the Barseback Uuclear Plant in Sweden, and involvement in the performance or analysis of several probabilistic consequence models re-lated to emergency planning for nuclear plants in the United States. In addition, I have participated through review, analyses, and testifying in many licensing hear-ings for nuclear power plants in the United States and 4

abroad.

O. What is the purpose of this testimony?

A. The purpose of this testimony is to address.the question whether operation of the Shoreham plant at up to 5 percent power, under the AC power system proposed by LILCO in its Supplemental Motion for Low Power Operating License (the

" alternate" system), would be as safe as operatiog at up to 5 percent power with three fully qualified.on-site

- emergency diesel generators, as described in the Shoreham FSAR (a " normal" sys, tem). In our opinion, operation with

~

LILCO's alternate proposed system would not be as safe as operation with a normal system.

O. Generally, on what do you base your opinion?

_--_==:-____ ___:___ .__--____.._-_-__-----_l_

r T .

A. We have assembled and reviewed documentation.that enabled" us to compare the proposed LILCO alternate AC power system and its components, with the qualified on-site AC power system described in the Shoreham FSAP and its components, in particular, those systems which af fect their capability to deliver, and sustain the delivery of, AC power to essential emergency loads. A description of the two systems is contained in Attachment C hereto. We then perfonned a quantitative comparison of the probability of Shoreham reaching a state of core vulnerab'ility (as defined by LILCO's contractor Science Applications, Inc.

in Probabilistic Fisk Assessments for the Shoreham plant) due to lo'ss of of,fsite power, during operation at five cercent power, assuming operation with the alternate system and assuming operation with the originally proposed qualified on-site power system.

O. How does the quantitative comparison you just described relate to the relative safety of the two systems?

A. ,

The comparison of calculated frequencies of the Shoreham , ,

plant reaching a state of core vulnerability due to a loss of of fsite power, given each of the two AC power systems, provides a quantitative measure of the two systems'

. . , _ =c= 4

-

1 s relative safety in terms of the overall operation of the -

plant at up to five percent power. The fact that the cal-culated probability of core vulnerability given operation with the alternate system is substantially greater than the corresponding probability given the normal system dem-onstrates that operation with the alternate system is quantifiably less safe than operation with the normal system.

Q. Please describe briefly the two AC power systems you com-pared.

A. The proposed alternate system's major components include four General Motors EMD, mobile outdoor-type diesel.

repowered generators ( " FM Ds " ). , and a 20-MW refurbished Pratt and Whitney gas turbine. The EMDs as well as the gas turbine were used (prior to their relocation to Shoreham) as peaking units for several years. Technical details of this generation equipment and of the supporting electric devices can be found in Table Cl of Attachment C.

The proposed configuration is depicted by the line diagram in Figure C2 of Attachment C. The geographical layout of the major equipment is shown in Figure C1. The procedures for restoring power via the gas turbine and the EMDs are d escribed in Section 2.1.1. 2. of Attachment C.

e i.

The normal system consists ,

of a set of three -

self-contained and operationally independent diesel gener-ators manufactured by Transamerica DeLaval Inc. ("TDIs").

Technical details of the TDIs can be found in Section 2.1.2.1 of Attachment C and in Testimony of G. Dennis Eley b

et al. on behalf of Su f folk County regarding EMD diesel generators and the 20 MW gas turbine. Specifications for other components related to operation of the TDIs are also listed in Table C1. The configuration of the normal system is shown in Figure C4 of Attachment'C. The operation of the TDIs is automatic.

O. Please describe the-process you used in analyzing the probability of Shoreham reaching a state of core vulnera-bility during operation at five percent power under each system.

A. Recently,, at LILCO's request, Science A'pplications, In-corporated ("SAI") and Delian Corporation , performed a Probabilistic Risk Assessment for Shoreham operation at 5 percent power. "Probabilistic Pisk Assessment, Shoreham Nuclear Power Station, Low Power Operation up to 5% of Full Power," by Delian Corporation and Science Applica-tions, Incorporated, Draft, May 1984 (hereinafter, "SAI

3 - O Low Power PRA"). Our basic approach in performing our .

quantitative analysis of core vulnerability probabilities was to use the structure and methodology used by SAI in .

performing its assessment for LILCo. We used that method-ology to produce two estimates of the probability of reaching core vulnerability due to a loss of offsite power transient at Shoreham for operation at 5 percent power. .

One estimate assumed that the TDIs, as described in the FSAR, were fully operational; and the other assumed that the EMDs and the gas turbine were operational in place of

~

the TDIs. We decided to produce these two estimates for purposes of comparison, because the potential for reaching a state of core vulnerability is a key measure of whether operation of the Shoreham plant at 5 percent power with the alternate AC power configuration proposed by LILCO would be as safe as 5 percent power operation with fully qualified onsite diesel generators. ,

Our principal data sources in deriving these two estinates of core vulnerable probability Qere the SAI Low Power PRA and information from the Probabilistic Risk As- ,

sessment dated June 24, 1983, also performed by SAI for LILCO. " Final Re port, Probabilistic Risk Assessment, Shoreham Nuclear Power Station," Science Application

Incorporated, June 24, 1984 (hereinafter, SAI 1983 PRA")..

The.latter source was used primarily to derive reliability figures relating to the operation of the TDIs.

We used the SAI data in performing our analysis for several reasons. First, we did not have sufficient time to derive all the necessary data independently. Second, the approach and methodology used by SAI in its PRAs seemed generally reasonable, and'in our professional judg-

~

ment, the SAI analyses were competently performed and its results, in general, were reasonable and accurate. Third, we believe that since 6AI acauired much of the data it used in its analysis from LILCO, it is reasonable to as-sume that the underlying factual data are likely accept-able to LILCO, thus reducing the chance of controversy regarding such underlying data. We used the SAI data, however, recognizing that in our opinion, not all the as-sumptions incorporated into the SAI analyses were as con-servative or as appropriate as they should have been. At-tachment E sets forth certain adjustments that we believe

- would make SAI's estimates of core vulnerability probabilities at Shoreham more realistic.

Core vulnerability can be produced by a number of -

initiating events. We limited our analysis to core vul-nerability following loss of offsite power because, in the ,

SAI analysis, that was the only source of core vulnerabil-ity affected by the differing AC power configurations now at issue.

In its Low Power PRA, SAI assumed that the EMDs and the gas turbine comprised the onsite emergency AC power system, and then investigated five types of, accident se-quences, each involving a unique time within which core vulnerability was ceached after a loss of offsite power.

The probabilities of core vulnerability derived by SAI are contained in Table 3.1. 3 of the SAI Low Power PRA. We performed a comparable analysis, using the same methodolo-gy as SAI, but assuming that the emergency onsite AC power system was comorised solely of operational TDIs. We ob-tained the necessary data to perform the TDI event tree analysis from the SAI 1983 PRA. The result of SAI's cal-cu.ations assuming the EMDs and the gas turbine provided emergency power, and of our calculations assuming the TDIs provided emergency power, are set forth in Table 1.1/ The

-1/ We believe, based on our review of the SAI Low Power PR A, that SAI did not consider the possibility of repairing the (Footnote cont'd next page)

event trees' which form the bases for the frequencies in -

Table 1 are Attachment D.

O.- What were your conclusions?

A. As shown on Table 1, the calculated probability of core vulnerability due to loss of offsite power, assuming LILCO's alternate AC power configuration is' in place (EMDs and gas turbine) is 3.3 E-6; assuming the normal configu-ration (TDIs) .is in place, it is O.44 E-6. This means that assuming there is a loss of offsite power during operation of the Shoreham plant at 5 percent power, it is more than seven times as likely that such an event would

  • lead to core vulnerability under the alternate system than under the normal system. It also means that the likeli-

' hood of the Shoreham plant reaching a core vulnerable

' condition due to loss of offsite power is over seven times greater under the alternate configuration than under the (Footnote cont'd from previous page)

EMDs or' gas turbine if they failed. Accordingly, in deriving the frequencies in Table 1, we used values for the TDIs that also assumed no repairs if they failed. Be-cause there is a possibility, however, that either the TDis_ or the EMDs and gas turbine could be repaired follow-ing a failure, we also performed a sensitivity study and.

compared calculated core vulnerable frequencies assuming such repairs. See Attachment E.

normal configuration. Furthermore, assuming the accuracy -

of SAI's estimate of 1.6 t*-6 for the annual frequency of core vulnerability from all other initiating events during 5 percent operation (SAI Low Power PRA at Table 4-4-1),

the likelihood that the Shoreham plant would experience an event leading to core vulnerability during 5 percent operation is approximately 2-1/2 times greater under the alternate configuration than it is under the normal con-figuration.

We recognize that uncertainties exist in each of the core vulnerability esbimates set forth in Table 1. How-ever, we believe that the uncertainties are comparable in the two estimates and that the existence of the uncertainties does not invalidate either the comparison or our conclusions. In our opinion the comparison set forth in Table 1 demonstrates that operation of the Shoreham plant with the alternate AC power configuration is not as safe as operation with a fully qualified source of emer-gency power.

3 O. Did you perform any additional analyses or sensitivity studies?

a.,,#.3L ..e .. - - . . . . . - , . . . . . . w.- -s ., .

A. Yes. We performed a sensitivity study to assess the re- -

duct' ion in core vulnerability attributable to the possi-bility of repairing the TDI diesels and the EMDs and gas turbine following their failure. We also analyzed the .

effect of certain adjustments to the SAI probabilities of of fsite power restoration and the frequency of loss of offsite power events at Shoreham, which we believe make those probabilities more realistic. These analyses are d escribe'd in Attachment E.

Q. Do the results of your sensitivity studies cause you to modify your conclusions regarding the relative probability of core vulnerability due to loss of offsite power given the alternate as compared to the normal Shoreham emergency power system?

A, No. Our sensitivity studies confirm our conclusion that the probability of core vulnerability due to loss of

. offsite power transient, assuming use of the alternate system, is higher than with'the use of the normal configu-

~ ration. The precise difference in probability, though uncertain, is sufficiently large to conclude that low

~

power operation with the alternate configuration would not ,

be as safe as with the normal configuration.

Resume Continued Mr. Weatherwax has perforTned energy and risk analysis of fusion systems and nuclear reactor designs. At Princeton University, he modeled performance and cost proper-ties of TOKAMAK fusion reactor concepts and associated power conversion technologies CIRCA 2000. Mr. Weatherwax managed the risk analysis of the Hanford (nuclear)

Reservation Purex plant. He also managed the initiation of the risk analysis of a Swedish PWR under Swedish Government sponsorship. More recently, he has reviewed and evaluated the probabilistic risk assessments of the Indian Point and proposed Limerick light-water reactor power plants for the Union of Concerned Scientists and the Limerick Ecology Action Comittee, respectively. In 198), Mr. Weatherwax testified before the Indian Point Atomic Safety and Licensing Board regarding the probabilistic risk assessment of the Indian Point power plant.

Mr. Weatherwax's current research an'd development interests in the area of probabi-listic risk assessment focus on the adequacy of existing fault-tree and event-tree

" methodologies for estimating low-probability events and representation of uncer-tainties in risk / benefit analysis. He is now involved in an AFWL project reviewing the probabil.istic risk assessment of the space shuttle / Galileo - International Solar Polar missions. A list of risk assessment studies authored or contributed to by Mr. Weatherwax is appended to this resume.

Mr. Weatherwax's experience in energy forecasting includes work done at Princeton University, UC Berkeley and as Chief Energy Forecaster for the CEC. During this time, he performed research involving end-use, microeconomic energy demand forecast-ing models and implementation of data bases to various end-use forecasting models.

He developed the first utility service area version of .a residential end-use energy demand forecasting iaodel and associated load shape forecasting model. As the Chief Energy Forecaster, he was responsible for forecasting electricity and natural gas requirements and peak loads for utility service areas for use in determining the need for power plants within California. Duties included technical direction of others in performing development and implementation of state-of-the-art microeconomic end-use models of energy consumption by fuel type and electric peak load by economic sector by utility service area. Other duties involved evaluation of cost effective-ness of conservation and alternative energy options and their potential energy impact, and management of twenty-five post-graduate level professionals.

PDBTED M EL-(MSEIR Resume (continued)

At Sierra Energy and Risk Assessment, Inc. (SERA), Mr. El-Gasseir is currently engaged in an analysis of probabilistic failure studies conducted for NASA's Galileo and International Solar Polar missions. He is specifically evaluating the validity of the appr.oach and methodologies pursued in these studies and in the accuracy of the data and computations performed. Mr. El-Gasseir is the principal author of a recent SERA report critiquing probabilistic simulation techniques presently used by the utility inudstry in system planning.

Mr. El-Gasseir is a chemical / engineer power generation specialist by education.

His background and experience encompass areas as diverse as the dynamics of multi-phase flow systems, simulation of complex systems, numerical and analytic quantita-tive techniques and institutional analysis of utility related issues. Mr. El-Gasseir's current research interests in the field of prgbabilistic simulation and risk assessment include the development of efficient Monte. Carlo techniques for power generation applications and of effective representation of interdependent time series'and the search for p universal (non-monetary) yardstick for evaluating costs and comparing risks.

Mr. El-Gasseir has recently completed the design of a novel cooling cycle for a nuclear turbine / generator. The device combines two natural-draf t dry towers with a spray pond. The design offers operating flexibility so that both energy and water can be conserved. It is particularly suitable for water-scarce regions.

At the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (LBL) Mohamed M. El-Gasseir was in charge of investigating the water quantity and quality issues of' energy development in the Southwest. He developed the algorithms for computing

~

the cooling water requirements associated with the various fuel cycles for generating electric power in California and Nevada. He was a member -

of a team designated by the Department of Energy (00E) for its Regional Issues Identification and Analysis Program. Mr. El-Gasseir represented LBL on a 00E National Laboratories comittee which was responsible for planning and funding water related energy research. He also conducted a study of the prospects for industrial water conserva_ tion.

As a consultant to the National Academy of Sciences Mr. El-Gasseir was a resource group member of the National Research Council Comittee on Nuclear and Alternative Energy Systems. He carried out the study of the availability of water for synthetic fuel development in the U.S. and the impacts of this future industry on the nation's water resources. The results published in Science magazine heightened government and industry interest in the environmental problems of intensive development of syn-thetic fuels.

Attachment C DESCRIPTION OF ALTERNATE EMERGENCY AC POWER SYSTEM PROPOSED FOR LOW POWER OPERATION AND THE NORMAL QUALIFIED ONSITE EMERGENCY AC POWER SYSTEM

1. Introduction As requested on behalf of Suffolk County, New York, Sierra Energy and Risk Assessment (SERA), Inc. of Sacramento, California has conducted an analysis of whether operation of the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station (SNPS) at up to a power level of 5 percent, would be as safe, under conditions proposed by LILCO in its Supplemental Motion for Low Power Operating License, as a fully qualified onsite AC power source. The alternate AC power system proposed by LILCO, and the normal system as set forth in the Shoreham FSAR, are described in this Attachment.
2. System Descriotions Section 2.1 provides a description of the systems to be compared. The LILCO proposed alternate system is specified first, emphasizing its unique, elements. The description of the normal system builds upon the information developed in the specification of the alternate system. A system is viewed as

- consisting of:

the hardware necessary for the generation and trans-mission of AC power to meet safety-related loads dur-ing emergency conditions accompanied by loss of offsite power, m m.- - a p g ._ e g3,y-g+ww,- we -ev- ~ v

the particular configuration in which the hardware components are integra'ted, and the operating procedures which must be implemented for the purpose of securing power supplies for safety-related loads during emergency conditions.

2.1 AC POWER SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The AC power systems of concern consist of a particular configuration of hardware to be used during emergency operation accompanied by loss of offsite power and the operating proce-dures to be implemented under such conditions. -Detailed speci-fications and data for the LILCO-proposed system configuration can be found in Tables C1, C2 and C3, and Figures C1, C2 and C3. The normal system configuration is depicted by the line diagram of Figure C4. The proposed alternate system is discussed first. The normal system is then described.

2.1.1 The LILCO-Proposed Alternate System In its Supplemental Motion for Low Power Operating License, LILCO proposed to augment offsite power cources to support emergency loads by a combination of a gas turbine and a set of four mobile diesel generator units, in place' of a fully qualified NRC approved onsite source of AC power as described in the FSAR. Thus, the proposed configuration consists of newly introduced elements and pre-existing components.

~

d i' The geographical layout of some of the key elements in the proposed configuration is depicted in Figure C1. Figure C2 provides a line diagram of the Shoreham plant, showing how the new components, the mobile diesels and the gas turbine, fit within the pre-existing configuration. Technical and function specifications of the elements relevant to the operation of the proposed configuration are listed in Table C1. In Table C1, components which did not exist in the SNPS FSAR line diagrams

' but which became associated with LILCO's alternate AC power system are classified as " proposed." This is to distinguish such components from the circuit and generation' elements installed prior to LILCO's proposal of the alternate AC power configuration. .

Procedures for restoring AC power after the onset of a ,

, LOCA condition and loss of offsite power are presented ,after the discussion characterizing the alternate configuration. The procedures apply to the 20 MW gas turbine (GT or GT-002) and the 4 General Motors EMD mobile diesel generators (EMDs) procured by LILCO. The comparison is based on the latest information-made available by the utility in response to dis-covery requests.

d e

C-3

7 The designations of the components in Figure C2 and the information compiled in Table C1 are used to characterize the hardware and circuitry of the proposed configuration. There-fore, the discussion to follow has been confined to the major elements of the alternate arrangement. Additional technical details can be found in Table Cl.

2.1.1.1.1 The Mobile Diesel Generators LILCO has installed a set of four General Motors EMD die- ,

sel generator (DG) units (see Tables C1 and C2 for technical details). Prior to being purchased by LILCO, the EMDs were in service for 15 years ~as Units 5, 6, 7 and 8 of the Lynnway Die-l sel Plant of New England Power (NEP). While owned by NEP, the 1

4 units underwent an unusually high number of major repairs.

(See Table C3 for specifics).

LILCO staff estimates that the output of a single unit (approximately, 2.5 MW) is capable of meeting the minimum emer-gency load required during low-power operation. The apparent

[ redundancy is counteracted by the following features of the EMDs:

The output of all four diesels is conveyed to the load center (Bus 11) by way of a single power con-duit.

C-4

o 0 The EMD diesel system.is of the master unit type.

Accordingly, all four units share:

one starting battery and battery charger (housed with the master unit),

a common fuel system, including one long-term fuel source, one main supply pipe, and a single fuel transfer system (housed within the master unit).

The EMDs have a deadline start capability. Units start sequentially. Each generator is allowed 3 starting attempts.

The battery can support 12 starting attempts. In the absence of.AC power, the charger cannot power the battery. Thus, if the diesels fail to start after 12 attempts, another source of AC power would have to be found.

Units are synchronized automatically but connection to the safety load on Bus 11 is achieved manually. A single circuit breaker (No. ll.lB) can disconnect all four EMDs from Bus 11

loads. Power generated by the EMDs has to be routed th* rough two more circuit breakers before it can reach emergency bus 101, 102 or 103. The EMDs are located outside the reactor building within the fenced security area. The enclosures and the foundation they rest on are not seismically designed.

The switchgear for the four EMDs is housed within a single outdoor-type control cubicle located adjacent to the EMDs.

2.1.1.1.2 The Gas Turbine .

The unit, or GT-002, is a 20 MW Pratt & Whitney gas tur-bine (GT) with deadline black start capability. GT-002 has served as LILCO's West Babylon Unit 1, providing peaking service for 15 years before relocation to Shcreham early in 1984. Even though the unit is located within the 69 KV switch-yard of Shoreham and is connected with the SNPS 69 KV circuit, it is controlled by the System Operator in Hicksville, New York, rather than by the Control Room Operator at Shoreham, f

( The gas turbine shares a common bus and a 13.8 KV/69 KV step-up transformer with a 55 MW gas turbine (Unit GT-001; a shoreham peaking power facility) which does not have black start capability and cannot operate in an isclEted mode. .To prevent load hunting if and when off-site AC power is restored, GT-001 must be securely disconnected from the grid. LILCO l plans call for the 20 MW gas turbine to be a source of AC power to serve safety-related loads in the event that off-site power' and other on-site power become unavailable. However, LILCO officials have indicated that GT-00,2 could be used as a peaking unit. (See Testimony of William G. Schiffmacher, filed April 20, 1984). In addition to providing safety power and peaking service, the black-start 20 MW gas turbine' could be the primary source of start-up power for the Shoreham nuclear facility.

2.1.1.2 Proposed Operating Procedures -

Final procedures for operating the alternate AC power system proposed by LILCO for the Shoreham facility have not t

been issued as of the end of the writing of this report. The interir procedures described herein are for restoring AC power with the proposed alternate configuration, first, using the 20 MW gas turbine (GT-002) and then using the EMDs, assuming fail-ure of Unit GT-002. In both cases, the following conditions j apply: ,

I l

1. Reactor operations at 5% power level,
2. Loss of of f-site power (leading to loss of both Normal and Reserve Station power),

( 3. System operator informs plant personnel that the loss of off-site power will be for an extended time period, and l

S. These losses of AC power occur in conjunction with a LOCA. .

2. EFB main Control. Room - Automatic or Manual.
3. EFB dead-line start - manual only - local or remote.
4. Hicksville supervisory - Automatic only.

Manual operation requires initiation and manual closing of Field Breaker, voltage and speed adjustment, manual synchroni-zation by closure of the main breaker, and manu'al loading by the operator. Automatic operation requires only initiation by

'the operator, local or remote. Sequential control causes the unit to be brought up to speed, phased in and loaded to a pre-determined value.

(i) Pre-Start Checks

1. Local Operation: ,
a. Check all personnel clear of enclosures and all doors shut.
b. Check all switches in proper positipn as follows:
1. 43-1 (Engine lockout - local - remote)
2. 43-2 (Engine idle -' manual - automat-ic)

4. At approximately 1500 N2 ignition will be actuated and combustion should

-start. *

5. At 3400 N2 starter valve will close.

N2 will accelerate to high idle.

6. At above 5400 Nw, N3 should be above 900 RPM at which time Field Breaker switch may be closed. .
7. N2 will accelerate to high idel of ap-proximately 6200 RPM.
8. Operate Speed Control (Manual ,

Governor) to increase N2 speed, until N3 attains approximately 3600 RPM.

. 9. Activate Synchroscope and adjust volt-

. g age as necessary.

10. Close main ACB to " phase in" when scope is proper. Increase load imme-diately.
2. Automatic Operation - Local

j All sequencing will be performed automatically, including breaker closure and loading to prede-termined setting. Remote base or peak operations will cause unit to increase load as required.

(ii) Automatic pick-up of Shoreham of RSS Bank 4 by GT-002: As .the 69-KV PT8 de-energizes , a 30-second timer is initiated, picking up auxil-iary MG-6 relays 62X and 62X1, and resulting in:

1. Tripping of oil Circuit Breaker (OCB) 640, Air Circuit Breakers'(ACB) 8Z-110 and SZ-120, and opening of motor operated dis-
, connect switches MABS (Mechanical Air Break

-Switch) 616 and MABS 617.

2. The GT-002 " Mode Selector" Switch '4'3-3 will change to " Isolate" mode and prevent closing of ACB 8Z-110.
3. The GT-002 receives a start signal.
4. The GT-002 shifts to isolated precise mode and starts through its DC fuel pump.
5. ~ When CT-002 reaches 3550 RPM ACB 8Z-120 (its main breaker) will close to allow picking up of RSS Bank 4 load. When the unit reaches 3600 RPM, it begins powering the RSST through ABS 623.

102, and 103, all components which bear upon the comparative -

i

! assessment of the safety the two AC power systems are described in Table C1. The following discussion will, therefore, focus i

! on the three emergency diesel generators, which are the most important element in the auxiliary power system for providing AC power to safety functions.

Before we proceed further, two observations must be made.

First, the description to be given and ( for that matter) Figure 4 have been extracted from the SNPS FSAR, dated 1979. Second, in spite of the technical difficulties LILCO has encountered i

-! with the-diesels identified in the FSAR, we have assumed that the requirements of GDC 17 and of other pertinent regulations l will.have to be eventually satisfied if the plant is to oper-ate. Hence, we have considered the PSAR information to be ge-nerically applicable where safety requirements are concerned.

2.1.2.1 Onsite Emergency Diesel Generators The onsite emergency diesel generators are described in the Shorehas. FSAR as follows:

The Shoreham plant is provided with three' independent standby diesel generators with buses arranged so that any two generators, operating independently, can provide power to all C-16

- i V .

p 9 .

the loads that are deemed 'essen ial for the design basis accident. The emergency diesel generators are not used for the purpose of supplying additional power to the utility power system _(peaking). It is assumed that the onsite power system satisfies GDC 17 and 18, IEEE 308-1971, and Regulatory Guide

~

1.9. The rating of each diesel generator set is as follows:

Continuous (8,760 hr) 3,500 KW 2 hr per 24 hr period 3,900 KW e

The criteria used to size the emergency diesel generators

'are: * *

1. The capacity of any two diesels is adequate to meet the safety features demand caused by a loss of coolant accident. The established demand is ,shown in FSAR Table 8.3.1-1.
2. The maximum conti'nuous load imposed on the diesel is less than the continuous rating of the machine, defined as the output the unit is expected to maintain for a minimum of 8,700 hours0.0081 days <br />0.194 hours <br />0.00116 weeks <br />2.6635e-4 months <br />. The maximum intermittent load in the first 60 seconds -( approxi-mately) during the operation of the motor-operated C-17

s

.:- . ~ . . . . . . . .

~

valves is less than t e.2-hour rating of the machine.'

These loads are given in FSAR Table 8.3.1-1.

3. Each generator is capable of starting and accelerating to rated speed, and then in the required sequence, meeting all of its emergency shutdown loads, as shown in FSAR Table 8.3.1-2.

Sizing of the emergency diesel generators is consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.9.

e The emergency diesel generators are automatically started on: , ,

1. Loss of voltage to the respective 4,160 V bus to which each generator is connected.
2. High drywell pressure. .
3. Low reactor coolant level signal.

If the preferred (offsite) power source is not available, the emergency diesel generators are automatically connected to the 4,160 V emergency buses and sequentially loaded. The capacity of any two emergency diesel generators is sufficient to meet the safety related load required by a loss of coolant accident during a loss of offsite AC power. The required loads and C-18

~ .. -- - - -

~

maximum coincident demand is shown in FSAR Table 8.3.1-1. Only one emergency diesel generator is needed for low power

. operation. The emergency diesel generator loading sequence for the above ^ shutdown conditions is shown in FSAR Table 8. 3.1-2.

The loading sequence prevents system instability during -motor

. starting. A fast responding exciter and a voltage regulator ensure quick voltage buildup during the starting sequence.

Each diesel generator has independent start control circuits.

The emergency diesel generator units are housed in separate e

rooms designed to Seismic Category I.

Each diesel generator is equipped with protective relays

.which shut the unit down automatically in the event of unit faults. During operation under emergency conditions, trip conditions are limited to those, which if allowed to continue, muld. rapidly result in the loss of the emergency diese,1 gener-ator. Surveillance. instrumentation is provided to monitor the status of the diesel generator. Conditions which can adversely -

affect performance of.the emergency diesel generators are annunciated locally and in the main control room. The follow-ing list shows the important functions that are annunciated:

2. Overspeed Shutdown X X
3. Main Board Control Disabled X X Except for the control rod drive pumps, all t

nonsafety-related loads are connected to the diesel generator bus through two series connected breakers (for those 480 V

. loads that are disconnected on LOCA, one of these breakers is the molded ;ase shunt-trip or switchgear breaker). The magnet-

ic breakers have been installed to limit detrimental effects on the emergency buses due to f aults and overloads on nonsafety related equipment. The power and control circuits for the

{ control rod drive pumps are treated as Class IE circuits, and I the power circuits to 480 V nonsafety loads fed through two series connected breakers are treated as Class IE circuits up to the second breaker.

l The three diesel engines operate on No. 2 fuel oil. Each engine is supplied by a separate diesel generator fuel oil storage and transfer system design to allow for 7 days continuous operation of the diesel engine at rated load. All safety-related portions of the diesel generator fuel oil stor-age and transfer systems are designed to ASME III, Code Class 3, and Seismic Category I requirements. The system design in-i corporates sufficient redundancy to prevent a malfunction or C-20

_. f

.s .

failure of any single active or passive component from impairing the capability of the system to supply fuel oil to at least two of the diesel engines. The diesel generator fuel oil storage and transfer systems are designed so that makeup fuel oil may be transferred from the auxil'iary boiler fuel oil stor-age tanks to the fill piping for the diesel generator fuel oil storage tanks. Auxiliary boiler fuel will be compatible with diesel generator fuel requirements. Missile protection is pro-vided for the fuel oil storage and transfer systems in accor-dance with General Design Criterion 4 of.10 CFR 50, Appendix A.

The diesel generator fuel oil storage and transfer system located in the area adjacent to the diesel generator rooms consists of:

l. Three buried diesel fuel oil storage tanks - one for each diesel en'gine. Each storage tank has a' capacity

~

of 42,000 gallons, providing suf ficient fuel oil for continuous operation of the associated diesel at rated load for 7 days. Each tank is vented to the atmosphere. ,

2. Six 10 gpm full-capacity, electric motor driven rota-ry positive displacement fuel oil transfer pumps ( two C-21

.- .- . ~

F pumps for each diesel, generator fuel oil storage tank) are provided. Each pump is provided with a re-lief valve discharging back to its associated suction line. Each diesel generator fuel oil transfer pump is mounted directly above its associated fuel oil storage tank.

3. A diesel generator fuel oil day tank for each diesel

~

engine is situated in the associated diesel generator room. Each diesel generator fuel oil. day tank is sized to store 550 gallons of fuel oil. Each diesel generator fuel oil day tank is supplied with a flame arrestor on the vent. -

4. Two 13 gpm, full capacity, positive displacement fuel oil booster pumps per diesel engine. The shaft-driven and d-c motor driven booster pumps are piped in parallel and mounted on the diesel engine skid.

Each pump discharge is equipped with a relief valve back to the pump suction. A large mesh Y type fuel ,

oil strainer is located upstream of each booster pump.

As a result of the redundancy incorporated in the system des ig n , the diesel generator fuel oil system provides its C-22

~

minimum required safety'functiog under any of the following conditions:

1. Loss of offsite power coincident with failure of one diesel generator.
2. Loss of offsite power coincident with maintenance outage or failure of one diesel generator fuel oil transfer pump or one diesel generator fuel oil boost-er pump associated with each diesel generator.

e The fuel oil storage tanks ate buried 2 1/2 feet below grade, with a 4 foot separbtion between the sides of each tank.

The tanks rest on, and are covered by compacted sand. Six

'nches i above the top of the tanks, supported by the compacted soil, is a 2 foot thick concrete slab, designed to Seismic Cat-egory I requirements. The fuel oil transfer pumps are, mounted above this slab, and take suction through the top of the tanks.

A Seismic Category I concrete block house is provided above each tank to enclose the two fuel oil transfer pumps, associ-ated discharge piping, instrumentation, and manhole into the tank. The blockhouse and slab together provide the fuel oil storage and transfer system with adequate protection against potential missiles due to tornadoes or hurricanes. This ar-rangement meets the intent of General Design Criterion 4.

C-23

Each of-the diesel generatar fuel oil day tanks is sized to store a maximum 550 gallons of diesel fuel oil, as allowed

.by National-Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards, Vol.

1, 1971-1972. This storage capacity provides for 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> of continuous operation of the diesel generator at rated load.

Each of the diesel generator fuel oil storage tanks is provided with a connection -for manual determination of the die-1 sel fuel oil level. A level transmitter is also provided to '

, give a continuous computer monitored reading of the tank level in t;v n control room. On low fuel level, a low level alarm, .itiated by a level switch independent from the level transmitter, is annunciated in the diesel generator room, and a

~ diesel trouble alarm is annunciated in the main control room.

Each diesel generator fuel oil day tank is provided with local indication of the day tank level. A level switch-is pr,ovided to alarm high and low diesel generator fuel oil day tank level on the standby diesel generator panel, and to indicate diesel trouble in the main control room. The level of the fuel oil day tanks is controlled by the automatic starting and stopping of the corresponding preferred diesel generator fuel oil

. transfer pump. Should the preferred pump fail to start, a re-dundant level switch will automatically start the second fuel oil transfer pump. Manual pump control is also provided on the C-24 i

the preferred or secondary fuel oil transfer pumps. In the event that the pumps fail to stop, a gravity drain overflow is provided from the day tank back to the diesel fuel oil storage tank. An interlock is provided to automatically shut off the fuel oil transfer pumps when the carbon dioxide fire protection system is actuated in the associated diesel generator room. A high differential pressure alarm across each of the booster pump Y strainers is provided on the diesel generator panel and annunciated as a diesel trouble alarm in the main cont.rol room.

Each diesel generator set has a separate air starting system designed to be capable of starting the diesel engine

~

without external power and also to meet the single failure cri-terion. The air storage tanks and piping between tanks and the air start distributors are designed to ASME Boiler and , Pressure vessel Code Section III, Class 3. All other portions of this

, system are designed to manuf acturer's standards and 3eismic Category I reouirements. Each diesel generator is provided with two independent, redundant starting systems (Figure 9.5.6-1). Each independent starting ' system includes the fol-lowing: '

1 Because of the-independenca and redundancy incorporated in the system design, the diesel generator starting system provides its minimum required = safety function under the follow-ing conditions:

1. Design basis accident with loss of offsite power, by putting into operation the standby diesel generator.
2. Maintenance outage or failure of one of the two air starting systems associated with the diesel engine.

Procurement of components is governed by the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B.

'Each diesel generator has its own lubrication system.

Each lubrication system includes the following equipment:

1. One direct engine driven lubricating oil pump,
2. One a-c motor driven lubricating oil circulating pump to supply warm lubricating oil to the engine sump and other necessary components when the engine is not running, as well as supply pressurized oil to the engine block until the shaf t driven pump reaches ef-fective speed. -

r The lubricating oil cooler.is designed to ASME Boiler and

}.

Pressure Vessels Code,Section III, Class 3. The lubricating oil cooler itself is serviced with the engine jacket water.

All the other equipment is designed to manufacturer's i standards, and Seismic Category I requirements. Each diesel l

generator lubrication system is an independent system, thereby satisfying the single failure criterion by assuring operation of at least two of the three diesel generators.

Each of the three diesel generators has its own jacket cooling water system. The engine jacket cooling water heat ex-changer is designed to ASME Section III code Class 3. The engine jacket cooling water pumps and piping are designed according to manufacturer's standards. All components of the diesel generator cooling water system are designed and quali-fled to Seismic Category I requirements. The diesel co,oling water system is furnished as a part of the diesel generator package, pre-piped by the manufacturer. Procurement of compo-nents is governed by the requiremente of 10 CFR 30, Appendix B.

Each of the emergency diesel generator units is located in its own separate room within the control building. The control building is a Seismic Category I structure and is capable of withstanding tornado missiles.

{. Each emergency diesel genenator room is provided with fixed CO2 total flooding system. These systems are provided with-temperature detection for automatic actuation. A smoke

, detection system is provided in these areas for actuation of alarms. Manual operation is provided at a local station near the protected area. There is a time delay between system actuation and system CO2 release, with signals provided to warn personnel. The fuel transfer area consists of a concrete pit with individual cubicles to house the fuel tanks and transfer o pumps. Due to their remote location and segregation from each other, only yard fire hydrant protection is provided with fire detection devices from the fire detection a'nd plant security system. Fire detection systems using smoke detectors of the

! ionization combustion products type are monitored on an annun-clator panel in the main control room to alert personnel of a possible fire situation in the DG rooms.

In addition, the emergency diesel generator fuel oil tanks are covered with a two-foot concrete slab with their as-sociated fuel oil pumps located in individual concrete cu-bicles. Adequate fire protection is supplied from yard fire hose houses in close proximity of all oil tanks. The gas tur-

[ bine oil tank is an above ground tank, located approximately 450 feet frota the nearest safety related structure, surrounded by a steel dyke sized to hold 110 percent of the volume of the gas turbine oil tank. Therefore, the tank presents no fire

, hazard to safety related structures. On flash oil fires around diesel generators, the time between detection and the opening of the CO2 valve could be almost simultaneous.

2.1.3 Common Elements There are several components common to both the al*terna-tive and the normal systems which have not been described in

~

detail here. They include the 480 volt systems fed from the safety buses (e.g., from Bus ll) and the loads used for specific safety functions. Because they are common to both systems, these components do not impact a comparative evalua -

SENSITIV[TY STUDIES AND ADJUSTMENTS TO SAI METHODOLOGY AND DATA Some of the data and assumptions used by SAI in per-forming its Low Power PPA for LILCO could be improved or made more accurate. The two most significant items are (1) the frequency of occurrence of the loss of offsite power transient at the Shoreham facility, a,nd (2) the as-sumed means of restoring offsite power-via the 69 KV switchyard. It also ap) ears that slight changes are nec-essary in the probability of restoring power following a loss of offsite power and in the conditional. availability

. ,I of the 138 KV switchyard following the occurrence of a

.; loss of offsite power. We have recalculated the

' frequencies of core vulnerable conditions due to loss of offsite power, as set - forth in Table 1 of our testimony, -

j _using corrected data as described below.

First, we used a loss of offsite power frequency cf ,

O.25 events per year instead of .nR2 events per year as was used by SAI in both the Low Power PRA and its 1993 E-1

._~

h 2 e PRA. SAI's loss of offsite power frequency value is. based-a on data concerning only the LILCO grid. (SAI 19A3 PRA, page 3-102). Thus, its value of .082/ year does not take into account the probability of failures within the Shoreham switchyard resulting in loss of offsite power.

In our opinion, the failure to account for such failures makes the SAI value unrealistically low.

The .25/ year frequency of loss of offsite power, which we believe is more realistic, is from,a Brookhaven National Laboratory assessment of the frequency of loss of of fsite power for the nuclear reactors found in the Reliability Council region to which LILCO belongs. See l

Table E-1. We consider this figure to be conseevative, but more realistic than SAI's, because it takes into account the contribution to losses of offsite power from failures in the switchyards of nuclear power plants. Such failures are a major contributor to loss of offsite power -

events. Although we believe that a value even higher than the .25 figure might be appropriate for a plant such as Shoreham which will be operated at low power by relatively ~

inexperienced operating sta f f using equipment subject to break-in type' failures, we did not increase the Brookhaven frequency in performing our calculation.

  • o Second, our recalculation also corrected what we -

= .

believe to be an error in the SAI model for of fsite power availability. The SAI low power event tree for the loss of offsite power transient takes into account the possi-bility that offsite power will be restored at different times after the transient, with varying probabilities.

SAI also assumes, however, availability of offsite 60 KV power with a probability of 0.99985, after the occurrence of the loss of off site power transient. We believe this second assumptio.n is improper, and amounts to double counting, because the probability of restoring offsite 69 KV power is already included in the event-tree in the time varying probabilities for restoring offsite power. ,

We ,

have eliminated this double counting in our recalculation.

The final major change we made was to consider,the possibility of repairing the gas turbine and the EMDs fol-lowing a failure. The SAI Low Power PRA did not discuss the possibility of repairing the EMDs and gas turbine.

Thus, to the best of our knowledge, the values.in Table 1 of our testimony reflect comparable assumptions of no repairs for both the EMDs and gas turbine, and the TDIs.

If the SAI Low Power PRA did include repairs of the EMDs and gas turbine, then the difference between the core E-3

e =

e

  • 4 s

'l vulnerable frequencies for the TDIs and the EMDs and gas

  • i . -

turbine is understated in Table 1 to our testimony, be-cause adding the repairability assumption to the TDI values would further reduce the probability of reaching a core vulnerable condition.

We took values from the SAI 1993 PRA to determine the core vulnerable frequencies assuming the TDIs could be repaired. To be conservative, we used the same TDI repair values used by SAI in our EMD and gas turbice event trees to determine core vulnerable frequencies for the alternate system.

The results of our recalculations are summarized in Table E-2. Increasing the frequency of loss of offsite power increases the estimated frequency of core vulneca-bility due to loss of offsite power by an equal fac' tor of about 3 for both the alternate and the normal AC power systems. Thus, the impact of this adjustment is only in the overall core vulnerable frequency, and the adjustment does not affect the frequency for one system relative to the other. The elimination of redundant consideration of offsite power restoration results in a greater increase in the probability of core vulnerability for the alternate configuration than for the normal configuration. This l

E-4

, -a x -

.would. reflect the greater' dependency of the alternative -

. . .=

system on the 69 KV switchyard availability.

Explicitly considering repair of the gas turbine and EMDs reduces the estimated probability of core vulnerabil-ity due to' loss of of fsite power for the alternate system.

The TDI analysis showed a comparable reduction in core vulnerable frequency when repairability was included.

This is expected because the system components might be returned to operation even though they may have initially e

failed to operate.

Combining the corrections in data and methodology de-scribed above, and assuming the possibility of repair for

.both the alternate and normal systems, the probability of

, core vulnerability due to loss of offsite power, is still about a factor of 4 higher for the alternate system *. Fur-

,l thermore, assuming the accuracy of SAI's estimate of 1.6 i

  • E-6 for the annual frequency of core vulnerability from all other initiating events during 5 percent operation (SAI 1983 PRA at Table 4-4-1), the likelihood that the I

Shoreham plant would experience an event leading to core vulnerability during 5 percent operation-is approximately 2.8 times greater under the alternate configuration than l it is under the normal configuration.
