ENCLOSURE REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION LA CROSSE BOILING WATER REACTOR (LACBWR)
DOCKET NO. 50-409 Item 1.1 - Incomplete 1.
The licensee needs to submit infomation clearly defining the responsibilities and authorities of the personnel who will perfom the pcst-trip review and analysis. We recomend that the post-trip review team include a member of plant management at the Shift Supervisor level on the plant end who has the responsibility and authority to obtain all necessary personnel and data to ensure a thorough and complete post-trip review.
In addition, the post-trip review team should include a Shift Technical Advisor or an engineer who has had special transient analysis training. These two people should have a joint responsibility to concur on a decision / recommendation to restart the plant.
2.
The licensee needs to address the methods and criteria comparing the event information with known or expected plant behavior. We recommend that the pertinent data obtained during the post-trip review be compared to the applicable deta provided in the LACBWR Safeguards Report to verify proper operation of the systems or equipnent. Where possible, comparisons with previous similar events should be made.
3.
The licensee needs to address the criteria for oetermining (1) the acceptability of restart for any unscheduled reactor trip, and (2) the need for independent assessment of an event. Ve recomend that if any of the restart criteria listed below are not met, an independent assessment of the event should be performed by the Operations Review Comittee or a group with similar authority and experience.
In addition, the licensee should have procedures to ensure that all physical evidence necessary for an independent assessment is preserved.
Recommended restart criteria:
a.
The post-trip review team has determined the root cause and sequence of events resulting in the plant trip.
b.
Near term corrective actions have been taken to remedy the cause of the the trip.
l c.
The post-trip review team has performed an analysis and detemined that the major safety systems responded to the event within specified limits.
. d.
The post-trip review has not resulted in the discovery of a potential safety concern (e.g., the root cause of the event occurs with a frequency significantly larger than expected).
4.
The licensee has not provided, for our review, a systematic safety assessment program to assess unscheduled reactor trips. We recommend that the licensee develop a systematic safety assessment program in accordance with the guidelines previded below.
Recommended guidelines:
a.
The criteria for determining the acceptability of a restart of the plant.
b.
The qualifications, responsibilities, and authorities of key personnel in the post-trip review process.
c.
The methods and criteria for determinino whether plant paraneters and system responses were within the limits provided in the LACBWR Safeguards Report.
d.
The criteria for determining the need for an independent review.
