RSB COMMENTS ON GRAND GULF UNIT 1 TECHNICAL ' SPECIFICATION.S 1) 2.2.1 Reactor Protection System Instrumentation Setooints Table 2.2.1-1 Item 3, "R'eactor' Vessei Steam Doine Pressure-High;." The allowable value should be less than or equal to 1045 psig (Referene,e.

r page.5 5 of the SER).

2)

Ba'ses 2.1.2 Thermal Power, High Pressure and High Flow The la'st' paragraph of the text lists a GE report number as NEDO-203040. The correct report number is NEDO-20340.

3) 3.4.2.2 *APRM Setpoints The time constant for the thermal power monitor needs to be included in the LCO's and surveillance requirements.

(Reference page 15-4 of Grano Gulf SER).

4) 3/4.3.3 Emergency Core Cooling System Actuation Instrumentation 1.

Table 3.3.3-2 item B.2.e "LPCI Pump B and C Discharge Pressure -

High" should have the same allowable value as item A.2.f "LPCI Pump A Discharge Pressure - High" which is 115-135 psig, increasing.

2.

Table 3.3.3-3 " Emergency Core Cooling System Response Times" gives the LPCI A & B Pump response time as < 45 seconds.

Table 6.3-1 of the FSAR states that LPCI rated flow is achieved in < 40 seconds for the DBA analysis. The specifi-cation should be changed to read < 40 seconds.

PSB COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS ON GRAND GULF TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS 1.

The effective Grand Gulf Technical Specifications do not include the surveillance requirements for the turbine overspeed protection system.

It is our understanding that these Technical Specification requirements were inadvertently left out of the Grand Gulf Technical Specifications issued in June 1982. Therefore, we require that these Technical Speci-fications be incorporated in the Plant Technical Specifications..Because of the uniqueness of the Grand Gulf Turbine Generator system, the word-[.

ing of the turbine overspeed protection system surveillance requirements should be the same as the Commanche Peak turbine overspeed surveillance requirements which has the same type of turbine generator system.

2.

Following are copies of those Grand Gulf Technical Specifiction pages which have been marked with corrections.

e CPB COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CHANGES 3/4.4 3.4.1.1 This Technical Specification, which provides limiting conditions (hou,rs) for operation in natural circulation and with only one recirculation *loopf, is not sufficiently prescriptive to protect against the potential for' the'rmal hydraulic instability. GE recently presented the staff with ' stability test data which denonstrated the occurrence of limit cycle neutron flux oscillations at natural circulation and several percents above the rated i

rod line.

The oscillations were observable on the APRM's and were supressed with control rod insertion.

It was predicted that limit cycle oscillations would occur at the operating condition tested, however; the characteristics of the observed oscillations were different than those previously observed at other stability tests.

Namely, the test data showed that some LPRMs oscillated out of phase with the APRM signal and at an suplitude as great as six times the core average.

GE is preparing a SIL for release soon to alert their plants of these new data and to recommend actions to avoid and. control abnonnal neutron flux oscillation.

The applicant is required to change this specification to properly protect against the potential for thermal hydraulic instability.

3/4. 2.'3 2.2.3 No reference is given ~in the BASES for Figures 3.2.3-1 and 3.2.3-2.

These curves are taken from NEDO-24011, Revision 4 (January 1982) but no reference to this appears in the FSAR.

CSB COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION (TS) CHANGES Following are CSB recomended changes for the Grand Gulf TS, assuming the recom-mendations from our last TS review (November 1983) will be adopted. These prior changes have not been incorporated in the present version of the TS.

1.

The following are the CSB's coments and/or recommended modifications l

to the Grand Gulf, Unit 1, Technical Specifications:

r i

(a) Surveillance Requirement Section 4.6.1.2 should be modified

~

as outlined in Attachment 1; (b) Limiting Condition for Operation 3.6.1.9 should be modified to indicate that the 20-inch and 6-inch purge systems shall not be used at the same time; (c) Recarding Table 3.6.4.1, the superscript footnotes (c) and (d) on selected isolation valves should be deleted according to the isolation valves identified with the appropriate schedule as obtained from the raferenced letter; (d) Regarding Surveillance Recuirement Section 4.6.7.?.a. e footnote reference should be added at the end of the werd

" energized" to indicate that a minimum of one igniter on each redundant circuit within a region or enclosure must be demonstrated operable via test.

2.

Surveillance reouirement 4.6.1.2, Item C.1 of the Standard Technical Specifications, which is identical to Item II. A.3.b of Appendix J to 10 CFR Part 50 is not well worded since i# the test is properly per-formed, the difference between the supplemental and the Type A tests can never be 0.25 La. Therefore, it is recommended that Item 4.6.1.2.c.1 of the Standard Technical Specifications and the Grand Gulf Technical Specifications be chanced to read either of the follow-ing two ways:

(a) " Confirms the accuracy of the test by verifying that the containrrent leakage rate, L'v, calculated in accordance with ANSI N 45.4 - 1982, Appendix C, is within P5 percent of the containment leakage rate, Lv, measured prior to the introduction of the superimposed leak"; or, (b) " Confirms the accuracy of the test by verifying that the supplemental test result, Lc, minus the sum of the Type A and the superimposed leak, Lo, are equal to or less than 0.25 La".

v In addition, it is recommeded that Item C.3 of the same surveillance requirements be changed t6 read as follows:

" Requires that the gas injected into the containment or bled from the containment during the supplemental test be between 0.75 La and 1.25 La".

The reason for this change is that Appendix C to ANSI N 45.4 - 197'2,

requires the superimposed leakage rate to be approximately equivalent to La. The new ANSI /ANS 56.8 sets the limits between 0.75 and 1.25 La.

Another item that was uncovered during the re-review is an apparent discrepancy in the acceptance value of the inleakage for the secondary containment. TS Surveillance Requirements Section 4.6.6.1.b.2 indicates a flow rate of 4000 cfm.

Based on conversations with the Accident Evaluation Branch (AEB), the flow rate should be changed to 2300 cfm to be consistent with the AEB evaluation.

In TS 3/4.6.3, the following minor discrepancies between the Tech Spec and the FSAR exist.

1.

Yaxinur suppressior pool water velune:

Tech. Spec. Pace 3/4 6-20 FSAR Table 6.2-50 138,851 cubic feet 138,701 cubic feet 2.

Max / Min equivalent suppression pool water level:

Tech. Spec. Page 3/4 6-20 FSAR Table 6.2-50 18'10" 18'9-3/4" 18'4-3/4" 18'4-1/12" These differences have a negligibly small effect on containment response analyses.

The CSB has also reviewed the TS basis section which summarizes the reasons for the specifications.

Certain parameters in basis Sections 3/4.6.1.7, 3/4.6.2.5 and 3.4.6.3 do not appropriately reflect the main TS sections. Accordingly, we recommend the following changes:

1.

Regarding basis section 3/4.6.1.7, the containment to auxiliary building differential pressure is limited to -0.1 and 1.0 psid rather than -2.0 to 0. psid.

2.

Regarding basis section 3/4.6.2.5, the maximum external drywell pressure differential is limited to 0.1 psid rather than 1.0 psid.

a..-.

3-3.

Regarding basis section 3/4.6.3, the minimum suppression pool volume should be 135,291 cubic feet rather than 136,145 cubic feet.

RAB, METB, AEB COMMENTS ON GRAND GULF TECHNICAL SPECIFIC,ATIONS The RAB, METB and AEB verified the acceptability of the Specificatioils except for the following:

.P l

1.

T.S 3/4 7.2 Plant Systems - Control Room Emerg(TAC #S1863).

ency Filtration System is being reviewed by the AEB and METB staffs Post i

licensing tests indicated excessive leakage of the control room.

Air ficw needed to maintain the specified 1/4" differential pressure was high.

In addition, the location of the air intake could result -

!?

in excessive concentrations of radioactivity due to poor atmospheric i

dfffusion.

2.

An ambiguity exists between the surveillance requirements of T.S.

3/4 6.6.1 Containment Systems - Secondary Containment Integrity and T. S. 3/4 6.6.3 Containment Systems - Secondary Containment Standby Gas Treatment System. The Containment Systems Branch has the lead with AEB assisting (TAC #51956).
