15.4.6 CBENICAL AND VOLUME CONTROL SYSTEM MALFUNCTION THAT RESULTS IN A DECREASE IN THE BORON CONCENTRATION IN THE REACTOR COOLANT O

' Identification of causes and Accident Description 15.4.6.1 Reactivity can be added to the core by feeding primary grade l30 water into the reactor coolant system (RCS) via the chemical and volume control system (CVCS).

Boron dilution is a manual O

operation under strict administrative controls with procedures calling for a limit on the rate and duration of dilution.

A boric acid blend system is provided to permit the operator to match the boron concentration of reactor coolant makeup water during normal charging to that in the RCS.

The CVCS is designed to limit the potential rate of dilution to a value which, after indication through alarms and instrumentation, provides the operator sufficient time to correct the situation in a safe and orderly manner.

The opening of the primary water makeup control valve provides makeup to the RCS which can dilute the reactor coolant.

Inadvertent dilution from this source.can.be readily terminated by closing the control valve.

In order for makeup water to be j

added to the RCS at pressure, at least one charging pump must j

be running in addition to a reactor makeup water pump.

l30 l

Normally, only one primary grade water supply pump is operating while the other is on standby.

The beric acid from the boric acid tank is blended with primary l

grade water in the blender, and the composition is determined

'by the preset flowrates of boric acid and primary grade water l30 on the control board.

3 l

Information on the status of the reactor coolant makeup is continuously available to the operator.

Lights are provided on the control board to indicate the operating condition of the j

j pumps in the CVCS.

Alarms are actuated to warn the operator if l

- TS 4.7.1.2.1.B(1) applies to the subject valves because, if left open, they would provide a flow path for auxiliary feedwater.

- With a sample line isolation valve incapable of automatically closing, t

the intent of the requirement would be met by closing and tagging out l

the valve. For sampling, an alternate flow path should be used if possible. Opening the inoperable valve would constitute entry into anLCO.

SUCCESSFUL EXAMPLES OF MAINTAINING' REGULATORY COMPLIANCE i

Example 2 e Tech Spec Requirement - Tendon Surveillance

~

~

- TS 4.6.1.6.1.E requires that containment tendon sheathing filler grease ~ have less than 5% voids by volume. If this criterion is not met, voiding must be reduced to less than 5% within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> and an engineering evaluation must be performed and submitted to the NRC within 15 days or the unit must be taken to hot standby within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to cold shutdown within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.

e issue

- If a tendon is leaking grease and that tendon is shown by analysis to be unnecessary for containment structural integrity, does the above action need to be applied? -,

w

4 SUCCESSFUL EXAMPLES OF MAINTAINING REGULATORY COMPLIANCE Example 2

  • Interpretation

- The analysis does not exempt GPC from applying the 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> LCO.

~~

In this case the voiding would need to be reduced to less than 5%

within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> and the analysis would need to be submitted to the NRC within 15 days. The analyses-would show that no abnormal degradation of containment integrity could result from loss of the filler grease.

e Results

- The shatdown requirement was judged to be overly conservative since the loss of filler grease was not a direct indication of degradation of containment structural integrity. NSL initiated a permanent TS change to delete the shutdown requirement based on a precedent set by another utility. The NRC has indicated that approval was likely.

Example 1 e Tech Spec Requirement -

i Residual Heat Removal System (RHR) Flow Requirement

- TS 4.5.2.H.3 requires that for RHR pump lines, with a single pump running, the sum of the injection line flow rates is greater than or equal to 3788 GPM. The action requirements for a ECCS subsystem 1

inoperable (i.e., both RHR trains inoperable) is to restore the inoperable subsystem to operable status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or be in hot standby I

e issue

- If the RHR heat exchanger outlet valves for both train A and B (valves 1-HV-0606 and 1-HV-0607) are at 90% open, is the RHR subsystem of the ECCS inoperable?

BENEFITS OF TEAMWORK Example 1 e laterpretation

- Initial interpretation made by operations personnel on shift at 1

the time of occurrence (April 28,1987) resulted in the finding

~

that the RHR system was operable in the condition described.

- Subsequent engineering review on May 5,1987, seven days later, j

determined the event reportable based on reducing the RHR system flow rate below the tech spec requirement.

e Results t

- Partial' valve closure problem was fixed.

- Reportabiltiy was determined 7 days after event was discovered.

j

- LER 87-023 was submitted.

l BENEFITS OF TEAMWORK Example 2

  • Tech Spec Requirement - Essential Control Room HVAC

- TS 3/4.7.G requires that two independent trains of control room emergency ventilations systems be operable in modes 1,2,3,4 and when moving irradiated fuel. Actions required when this requirement is not met in modes 1,2,3,4 include restoring the HVAC systems to operable within 7 days or being in hot standby within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and cold shutdown within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.

e issue

- Potential failure modes of control room emergency HVAC were not adequately analyzed to ensure system operability requirements met, i.e, maintain a ~ positive 1/8 inch water pressure in the control room.

- Potential effect of Unit 2 construction upon the availability of the redundant HVAC l

t intake for emergency control room with HVAC. The Unit 2 side intake dampers had been closed and a single failure could have closed the Unit 1 dampers resulting in the possible inability of the system to maintain the plus 1/8 inch positive pressure in the Unit 1 control room.

The basic statute deahng with the hcensmg and regulation of atomic energy activities is the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, l

as amended. The Energy Reorganization Act of 1974 left the Atomic Energy Act largely intact but abolished the Atomic Energy Commission and transferred its functions under the Atomic Energy Act to two newly created agencies, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Energy and Research Development Administration.

The Department of Energy Organization Act, approved August 4,1977 transferred all of the functions of the Energy Research and Development' Administration and its Administrator l

to the Department of Energy.

RESULTS IN A DECREASE IN THE BORON CONCENTRATION IN j

THE REACTOR COOLANT 15.4.6.1 Identification of Causes and Accident' Description i

l Reactivity can be added to the core by feeding primary grade water into the reactor coolant system (RCS) via the chemical and i

volume control system (CVCS).

Baron dilutit la a manual 1-operation under strict administrative contrulu with procedures calling for a limit on the rate and duration of dilution.

A boric acid blend system is provided to permit the operator to l

match the boron concentration of reactor coolant makeup water during normal charging to that in the RCS.

The CVCS is designed 4

to limit the potential rate of dilution to a value which, after j

indication through alarms and instrumentation, provides the 4

operator sufficient time to correct the situation in a safe and' l

orderly manner.

i l

The opening of the primary water makeup control valve provides makeup to the RCS which can dilute the reactor coolant.

l Inadvertent dilution from this source can be readily terminated by closing the control valve.

In order for makeup water to be l

l added to the RCS at pressure, at least one charging pump must be running in addition to a reactor makeup water pump.'

Normally, only one primary grade water supply pump is operating while the other is on standby.

1 The boric acid from the boric acid tank is blended with primary j

grade water at the mixing tee, and the composition is determined l

q by the preset flowrates of boric acid and primary grade water on the control board.

i Information on the status of the reactor coolant makeup is 4

continuously available to the operator.

Lights are provided on j

the control board to indicate the operating condition of the pumps in the CVCS.

Alarms are actuated to warn the operator if i

VEGP-FSAR-15 boric acid or domineralized water flowrates deviate from preset values as a result of system malfunction.

This event is classified as an American Nuclear Society condition II incident (an incident of moderate frequency) as defined in subsection 15.0.1.

t 15.4.6.2 Analysis of Effects and consecuences 15.4.6.2.1 Method of Analysis i

To cover all phases of the plant operation, boron dilution ddring refueling, startup, cold shutdown, hot standby, and power operation are considered in this analysis.

15.4.6.2.1.1 Dilution During Refueling.

An uncontrolled boron dilution accident cannot occur during refueling.

This accident is prevented by administrative controls which isolate the RCS from the potential source of unborated water.

Valves 175, 176, 177, and 183 in the CVCS will be locked closed 4

during refueling operations.

These valves will block the flow -

paths which could allow unborated makeup water to reac'h the i

RCS, Any makeup which is required during refueling will be borated water supplied from the refueling water storage tank by the low head safety injection pumps.

15.4.6.2.1.2 Dilution During Cold shutdown, Hot Standby, and Hot shutdown.

An analysis was performed to evaluate boron dilution events during cold shutdown, hot shutdown, and hot standby.

Failure modes and effects analysis, human error analysis,.and event tree analysis were used to identify credible 4

boron dilution initiators and to evaluate the plant response to these events.

For the initiators identified, time intervals from alarm to loss of shutdown margin were calculated to determine the length of time available for operator response.

These calculations depended on dilution flowrates, boron concentrations, and Reactor Coolant System volumes specific to s

the event and mode of operation.

The technique modeled-realistic plant conditions and responses, including both mechanical failure and human errors.

The analysis identified four events which were considered to be the most likely initiators:

1.

Domineralizer outlet isolation valve open during resin flushing.

2.

Valve 226 open following BTRS domineralizer flushing operation.

15.4.6-2 Amend. 17 7/85

P VEGP-ESAR-15 3.

Failure to secure chemical addition.

4.

Boric acid flow control valve (FV-110A) fails closed during make-up.

Initiator 4 was found to be the most limiting event for modes 3, j

4, and 5.

The parameters used in the calculation of time available for operator response are listed in table 15.4.6-1.

Conservative values of boron worth (pcm/ppe), as a function of RCS baron concentration, were assumed in the analysis.

j Since the active volumes considered are so small in cold shutdown with the reactor coolant loops drained, it was determined that the same. valves locked out in refueling would need to be locked out in cold shutdown when the reactor coolant loops are drained.

15.4.6.2.1.3.1 Dilution During Startup.

Conditions at startup E17 require the reactor to have available at least 1.30-percent Ak/k shutdown margin.

The maximum boron concentration.

required to' meet this shutdown margin is conservatively i

estimated to be 1704 ppa.

The following conditions are assumed for an uncontrolled baron dilution during startup:

A.

Dilution flow is assumed to be the combined capacity i

of the two primary water makeup pumps (approximately

~,

i 242 gal / min).

l B.

A minimum water volume (9757 ft ) in the reactor 8

coolant system is used.

This volume corresponds to the active volume of the RCS minus the pressurizar volume.

j.

15.4.'6.2.1.3.2 Dilution During Power Operation.

During power Il7 i

operation, the plant may be operated two ways, under manual t

operator control or under automatic Tavg/ rod control.

While the plant is in manual control, the dilution flow is assumed to

.be'a maximum of.242 gal / min, which is the combined capacity of the two primary water makeup pumps.

While in automatic control, the dilution flow is limited by the maximum letdown i

flow (approximately 125 gal / min).

. Conditions at power operation require the reactor to have available at least 1.30-percent Ak/k shutdown margin.

The maximum boron concentration required to meet this shutdown margin is very conservatively estimated to be 1704 ppa.
