Review Comments on Calculation 96-0279, Rev. O The following comments were made on this calculation 96-0279 and resolved with the preparer:

1.

Section D I: Per DG-101, Section 3.3.3.15, if sufficient data is not available to perform an as-found/as-left drift analysis and there is no vendor data available, a default value of12% should be used for sensors and 11% should be used for rack components. DG-101, Section 3.3.3.12 allows use of engineeringjudgement where data is not available. The past calibration data discussed in this calculation adequately provides a basis for this engineering judgement.

2.

Section F. General The general methodology in DG-101 is to combine errors as a percent of the calibrated span (see examples in Section 3.3.1 and discussion in Section 3.3.3.5). In this calculation, percentage errors are calculated and then multiplied by the maximum flow rate to get an error in measured flow rate. This technique should yield conservative error values uhen considering flow rates below the maximum.

3.

Section F 1:

FE-128 - Westinghouse data sheet 1.6A lists a il% accuracy in range from 30 - 120 gpm and a differential pressure range of 200" H;O. Use of this orifice error in lieu of the conversions discussed in DG-101 Section 3.3.4.2 is conservative. The data sheet provides a reference for the 140 gpm maximum flow rate used in this calculation.

FT-128 a.

In the calculation of the calibration errors,it should be clarified that the 10-50 mA span is the calibrated span for the transmitter per ICP-04-003.4.

b.

Reference for the IT accuracy should be noted.

c.

The adjustment of the drift to account for differrnt calibration frequency should be done using the guidelines of DG-101, Section 3.3 4.3. It should be noted that calibrated span and the upper range limitare the same d.

The static pressure effects noted here are the random portion of theses errors. As discussed in DG-101 Sections 3.3.2.1 and 3.3.3.18 a non random portion of the error may based on the static head differences between the header and the transmitter, in ICP-04-003.4 a pressure is applied at the transmitter during calibration. As such the impact of any differences between the header and the transmitters is not considered in the calibration. Since we are orly concerned with measurement of differential pressure, this component of the error should be very small and can be excluded per DG-101 Section 3.3.3.9.

e.

The vendor static errors are not treated exactly as noted in DG-101. The difference in handling the static pressure will not significantly affect the results. Since the calibrated span and the upper range limit are the same, the Span Shill Bias calculation is acceptable.

f.

As discussed in the comments on FM-128, conversion of this error to a flow rate is not appropriate at this point.

FM-128 - As shown in DG-101 Appendix D, the output error of a non-linear device should be calculated using the input errors (i c., the SRSS of errors for devices upstream of the non-linear device), the transfer function for the device and the errors of the device. The transfer function from DG-101should be used in the calculation.

TITLE: Uncarttinty Associated CALCULATION * : 96-0279 with Instrumentation Used in Prepared By: EJM IT-21 & IT-22 for Charging Pumps Date;12/20/96 Page iof9 A. Purpose The purpose of this calculation is to determine the uncertainty associated with the instrumentation used in inservice test procedures IT-21 & IT-22, for the charging pumps, (reference 2). The final uncertainty value must include a combination of the uncertainties for all the instrumentation used in the test that will have an impact on the ability to measure the IST acceptance value during the test performance for comparison to the design I

basis acceptance value.

B. Method Instrument uncertainties will be calculated for the instruments used in the l

charging pump Inservice Test procedures, IT-21 and IT-22, (reference 2).

i The charging pump acceptance value will be strictly a total flow value. The charging pump total flow is determined in IT-21 and IT-22 by adjusting the pump speed to 1350 10 rpm using a portable tachometer and adding the flows from three instruments, F1-128, FI-115 and FI-116. The uncertainties for these three instruments will be determined, and then combined, using a square root sum of the squares technique. The result will be added to the design basis pump performance requirement (currently defined in reference

1) to establish an IST acceptance criteria for the charging pumps that will ensure they can meet their design basis performance requirement. During the performance of IT-21 and 22, the operator willincrease the charging pump flow to a value that is greater than the design basis acceptance requirement, plus instrument uncertainties. This test will show that the charging pumps are capable of satisfying their design basis requirement.

Since the charging pump design-basis acceptance value is strictly a flow value, and the charging pumps are positive displacement pumps whose flow output is nearly independent of the discharge pressure seen by the pump, it is not necessary to consider any pressure instruments in this uncertainty calculation. it is not necessary to compare the pump to a pump curve, or prove the design basis requirement can be satisfied at a particular pump speed, since the purpose is only to veriN that the pump can satisfy its design basis function, which is strictly a flow value, it is not important what the rpm of the charging pump is at the time of the IST test to determine that the design basis requirement has been catisfied. The instrument uncertainties associated with the charging pump speed, and the instruments used to measure that speed, are not considered in this calculation. The pump speed remains important to ensure ASME Section XI acceptance criteria are satisfied, since these criteria are established to monitor for pump degradation.

This calculation identifies the Unit 1 instrumentation, however the calculation applies equally to the charging pumps on either unit.

D. Assumptions 1.

The temperature effect on the instrumentation will be assumed to be negligible as the transmitters are calibrated and used in essentially the same temperature environment.

2.

If manufacturer's data was not located, uncertainties associated with drift of an instrument have been assumed to be the smaller of either 0.5% of full scale, or the instrument calibration tolerance. This value (0.5%) is based on engineering judgment of the maximum expected drift between calibrations for the instrumentation involved. Alternatively, the calibration accuracy is used if smaller, because instrumentation found regularly out of

TITLE: Uncsttrinty Associtted CALCULATION * : 96-0279 with instrumentation Used in Prepared By EJM IT 21 & IT-22 for Charging Pumps Date:12/20/96 Page 3 of 9 calibration are typically either repaired or replaced. Reviews of past instrument calibration sheets for the instruments in this calculation have shown the drift to be less than 0.5% in nearly all cases.

3.

The M&TE error is assumed to be the smaller of either 0.5% of the instrument range, or the calibration tolerance, for all IST instruments. This value (0.590) is conservative based on the research performed for Calculation 96-0191, " Minimum Allowable IST Acceptance Criteria for SI Pump Performance" (reference 11). The calibration accuracy is used if smailer because it is the practice of l&C to use a calibration instrument which is at least as accurate as the instrument being calibrated.

E. Inputs For this calculation, the total uncertainty associated with the instrumentation used to perform the IST test must be accounted for when obtaining the minimum IST acceptance criteria Contributors to this total uncertainty include:

J OPERABILITY DETERMINATION 4

1.

Degraded or potentially nonconforming equipment:

Charging Pumps Ul&2 P 2A P-2B P-2C Safety function (s) performed:

(

internal check valves provide a contamment isolation pressure boundary following a LOCA.

No safety related functions to providing flow.

He charging pumps are needed to bring the unit to cold shutdown with the required shutdown margin at any time during l

core life, assuming that the most conservative control rod is stuck in the fully withdrawn position.

Provide RCP seal flow and makeup for RCS leakage.

I 3.

Circumstances of potential nonconformance, including possible failure mechanisms:

Condition Repott 96-416 identified a potential concern for adequacy of the IST program to ensure that pumps meet design basis as well as ASME Section XI requirements. His evaluation supports determination of operability pending completion i

of detailed analysis 4.

Requirement or commitment established for the equipment, and why it may not be met:

Te::hnical Specifications Section 15.3.2 provides the design basis for CVCS control of RCS Boron inventory. He boration volume available through any flow path is sufficient to provide the required shutdown margin at cold shutdown, Xenon free conditions from any expected operating condition. He maximum volume requirement is associated with boration from just critical, hot zero or full power, peak xenon with control rods at the insertion limit, to xenon-free, cold shutdown with the highest worth control rod assembly fully withdrawn.

l FSAR 14.3.1 states that makeup flow rate from two charging pumps is typically adequate to maintain pressurizer level long enough for the operator to respond without activating the ECCS for a break through a 3/8" diameter hole.

1 Generic Letter 83-28 Required Actions Based On Generic Implications Of Salem ATWS Events 5

IST acceptance criteria may not be conservative when compared to design basis criteria.

5.

How and when the potentially nonconforming equipment was first discovered:

His generic concern was first identified in June 19% as a specific concem for safety injection pump acceptance criteria from ASME Section XI versus design requirements his generic concern was first identified in June 1996 6.

Basis for declaring affected equipment operable:

'l A. During normal operation the charging system is required to provide 32 gpm flow per pump. Normally two pumps are in operation. 32 gpm flow per pump is based on providing sufficient flow for reactor coolant system makeup, based on the sum of the following:

12 gpm reactor coolant pump seal leakage. This is twice the normal leakage of 3 gpm per pump. Also, reactor coolant gmp operation is only allowed if reactor coolant pump seal leakage is <5 gpm per OP-4B (line 2.3.2).

10 gpm labyrmth seal flow. A labyrinth seal flow is necessary to prevent reactor coolant from entering the seal area. 10 gpm i

is the sum of the normal design labyrinth seal flow from each pump (5 gpm each). (E KIM # 102, Section 5, line 5.5.7) 10 gpm reactor coolant system leakage. His is based on Technical Specification Section 15.3.1.D.

B. Technical Specifications Section 15.3.2 provides the design basis for CVCS control of RCS Boron inventory, ne boration volume available through any flow path is sufficient to provide the required shutdown margin at cold shutdown, Xenon free conditions from any expected operating condition. De maximum volume requirement is associated with PBF-1553

{tevision 0 06/24/94

}

l boration from just critical, hot zero or full power, peak xenon with control rods at the insertion limit, to xenon-free, cold I

shutdown with the highest worth control rod assembly fully withdrawn. Calculation P-93-014 was performed to show that for a typical cycle, assuming worst case conditions, the reactor can be maintained suberitical following a reactor trip.

Specifically, the amount of negative reactivity that can be insetted by one charging pump borating at a minimum speed (15gpm) using the refueling water storage tank (RWST) as the suction source is greater than the positive reactivity added from the decay of xenon. Calculation P-93-014 showed that at a rate of 15 gpm from the RWST the intent of tech spec 15.3.2 for maintaining shutdown margin has been satisfied. He calculation did not look at the capability of the boric acid storage tanks ability to provide shutdown margin. He RWST is more limiting for a minimum flow requirement than the Boric acid storage tanks because boric acid concentration is maintained higher in the boric acid storage tanks than the RWST.

The reactor coolant pump seal leakage is not flow that can be considered to be added to the RCS. Therefore the total charging flow is required to be 15 gpm + 12 gpm = 27 gpm. De 32 gpm flow mentioned above is limiting as it envelopes the shutdown margin capability flow of 27 gpm.

C. FSAR 14.3.1 states that makeup flow rate from two charging pumps is typically adequate to maintain pressurizer level long enough for the operator to respond without activating the ECCS for a break through a 3/8" diameter hole. The original basis for capacity of the charging pumps was the ability to makeup to the RCS for normal charging system flow requirements (30 gpm), RCP seal injection flow requirements where the seal injection flow consists of the normal RCP labyrinth flow (5 gpm per pump), maximum seal flow through one RCP seal (75 gpm, assuming pumps equipped with floating ring seals which are not applicable to PBNP), and twice the nominal no. I seal flow in the remaining pump (6 gpm). This total of 121 gpm results in a requirement of 60.5 gpm per charging pump. Neither this requirement nor the 32 gpm limiting flow requirement stated above is related to the FSAR Chapter 14 statement relating charging system performance and a 3/8 inch reactor coolant system hole. The FSAR states that two charging pumps are typically adequate to maintain pressurizer level long enough for the operator to respond without activating the ECCS for a break through a 3/8 inch diameter hole. This statement does not mean that pressurizer level will be maintained constant or that the charging pumps will be able to meet the volume of such a leak. He statement in the FSAR concerning charging system capability is therefore only a general capability statement and not a design basis requirement. A calculation (N-90-015 Response Time for 3/8" Line Break in l

Reactor Coolant System) was perfonned to determine the amount of time available for operator action with two charging pumps available. The calculation concluded that approximately 30 minutes is available for operator action at no load conditions and 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> is available at full power. This calculation assumed a design flow rate of 60.5 gpm from each of two charging pumps. The maximum flow rate from a 3/8"line was determined to 17.5 lbm/sec or 126 gpm reference cale m l

NCR N-89-187. Note that although the 3/8" piping was upgraded to safety related and eliminated the need to include i

charging flow for 3/8" line break in the design basis, the statement in the FSAR is still true in that two charging pumps operating at their design maximum flow is typically adequate time for operator response. See attached response to Nonconformance Report N-89-187 for additional information.

D. Generic Letter 83-28 (Required Actions Based On Generic implications Of Salem ATWS Events) required each licensee to submit a report describing how it meets the requirements contained within the Generic Letter. A letter from C.W. Fay Vice President Nuclear power to the NRC dtd 11/1/83 contained this report. One of the sections required to be addressed in the Generic Letter concemed post maintenance testing. The report stated that it is current practice to perform PMT on safety related pumps and valves. This testing is performed in accordance with the guidelines of ASME Section XI. The same acceptance criteria used in evaluating performance during periodic testing is used in evaluating performance after maintenance. Current practice at PBNP is to perform periodic testing in accordance with Section XI and to perform PMT to the Section XI requirements after maintenance. The charging pumps are called upon in procedure CSP S.1 " Response to Nuclear Power Generation /ATWS" as a potential boration path for ATWS. A review of the Westinghouse Owners Group Emergency response guideline for FSR S.l does not call out any specific flow requirement for the charging pumps. It provides guidance for various means of borating the unit through emergency boration paths to the charging pumps as one of the titernatives. A review of PBNPs response to GL 83-28 did not find any flow requirements for the charging pumps.

Based on the above and the fact that the charging pumps are tested in accordance with ASME Section XI the commitments conceming ATWS have been met.

E. He IST program tests the charging pump flow against normal system operating pressure. The pumps are tested at 1350 rpm plus or minus 10 rpm. This is below the maximum RPM of the pump. The most limiting pump from attached IST data provided 42.6 gpm at 1350 rpm against normal system operating pressure. This is above the reauired limiting design basis of PBF.1553

j Charging Pump Flow Acceptaaec Criteria l

' Westinghouse used the following flows to determine the charging pump capacity (see attached DBD worksheets):

l

  • 30 gym (chargmg flow) l
  • 10 gpm(labyrinth flow) j
  • 6 gym (twice the " norma!" seal flow (3 sym) in the other pump)

This totals 121 gpm, or 60.5 spm per pump based on two operable charges pumps (out of three total). This i

dearmination was made before Me l seals were quahfied for reactor coolant pump applicanons, hence the a

i-very large 75 gpm seal leakage assumption, and the charsmg pumps were bought on this basis. Since the PBNP -

reactor coolantpumps have EA H-1 seals, the following flows can be used to determme the current required j

charging pump capacity:

i

  • 30 gpm (chargmg flow)
  • 10 gym (labyrmth flow)
  • 12 gym (twice the normal seal flow for both reactor coolant pumps) 1 This totals 52 gym. or 26 spm per pump. To arrive at an IST pump flow =+p-e value, it is appropriate to aaneidar only the (1) reactor coolant system inventory control and (2) boric acid addition functions of the CVCS i

(i.e., the " Chemical" and " Volume" control functions of the CVCp Letdown flow does not need to be considered l

because it is related to RCS purification, and this RCS chemistry hmits are addressed by other Technical Specifications (Section 15.3.1.C). This number can be arrived at as follows:

1.

e j

  • 12 gpm (makeup for seal leakage - the maximurn allowed by procedure is 10 gpm per pump) +-

i

  • 10 gym (labyrmth seal flow - !abyrinth seat flow is required when maintaining seal flow) j
  • 10 gpm (Technical Specification 15.3.1.D allowed leakage)

This totals 32 spm per pump. In addition to maintaining RCS inventory, this flow is considered a reasonable acceptance flow doce it also envelopes the following:

(1)The)fric acid transfer pumps are in-<eries with the changing pumps. The BATPs have an IST required flow of@gpm. 32 gpm envelopes this flow.

(2)It envelopes Appendix R evaluations, which assume a 20 gpm flow during fires.

(3)It also envelopes the flow required to accomodate either the assurned RCS contraction during cooldown (30 gpm) and auxiliary spray (30 gpm) flow, but not both together.

See the attachment for why the charging pump capacity does not need to be tied to providing makeup to accommodate 3/8 inch reactor coolant systern line breaks.

Safety Function:

The CVCS System serves as an attemate shutdown system by pmviding.for reactor coolt.nt system boration when required. (FSAR 9.2) l J

l Components:

1-P-002 A-C (684J741) 2-P-002 A-C (685J175)

Charging Pumps The Charging Pumps deliver concentrated boric acid solution at the rate required for RCS boration fmm the discharte of the RWST's or the Boric Acid Transfer Pumps to the RCS.

In addition, the charging pumps are used to mitigate the effects of a small break LOCA.

However, per the safety analysis, the safesy injection pumps are the primary means for thing to a small break LOCA but no such credit is taken in the safety analysis.

i The evaluation consists of three parts.

The first part checks a

i the calculations contained in the condition description section f

g explores the history of the subject paragraph in the FSAR.

The o

third part evaluates the consequences of changing the FSAR.

Part 1 - Calculations

(

E E

Calculations contained in the condition description section of the NCR are correct.

The maximum charging pump flow is approximately 8.3 lbm/s per pump.

In addition, calculations using Crane (1980)l, at normal operating pressure and temperature and with limiting assumptions about break geometry, show that i

break flow through a 3/8 in. diameter break of 17.5 lbm/s is

{

reasonable.

The obvious conclusion is that one charging pump i

cannot maintain pressurizer pressure and level indefinitely.

Maintaining pressurizer level does not necessarily mean that the pressurizer level remains unchanged with a small leak in the RCS.

An alternative interpretation of maintaining pressurizer level is

{

that the charging system is capable of maintaining pressurizer level long enough for the operators to identify a loss of inventory and isolate the leak or perform an orderly shutdown, cooldown and depressurization of the RCS.

Operators should have i

sufficient time to identify and respond to a 3/8 in, diameter break without relying on the ECCS.

1 i

ECCS is initiated when pressurizer pressure falls below 1735 e

psig, when stemn line pressure falls below 530 psig, i

containment or when i

pressure exceeds 5 psig.2 A 3/8 inch pipe break should have little impact on steam line or containment pressures.

{

The setpoint of concern is the pressurizer pressure.

If the i

charging pumps can maintain pressurizer level, then the pressurizer heaters can maintain pressure and the low pressure setpoint is not reached before an orderly cooldown can be initiated.

{

Estimates of thg time required to empty the pressurizer by removing 600 ft of water are shown, as a function of the number of charging pumps running, in the following table.

The table also shows the energy required to maintain normal operating 3

i The ca.se with zero charging pumps available should never happen j

and the case with one charging pump running should happen infrequently.

j 1'

This calculation should remove any concern that a small diameter i

break is a catastrophic accident which is un-analyzed due to a i

misstatement in the FSAR.

In the most probable condition, the operators should have several hours to identify the break and take corrective action.

i However, the subject paragraph in the FSAR is still misleading.

implies that one charging pump is capable of maintaining It pressurizer level.

4 Corrective action should still be to remove or revise the subject paragraph.

y The subject paragraph was added with Amendment 23 to the FSAR i

EE and documented in a letter to the NRC dated October 14, i

i-1977.

The October 14, 4

1977 letter references an October 27, 1976 letter to NRC reporting a revised small break loss of coolant a4 analysis.

However, neither of these letters contains the basis g

for adding the subject paragraph to the FSAR.

Westinghouse usually provides replacement pages for the FSAR as part of a revised LOCA analysis.

The subject paragraph appears once in our correspondence with Westinghoune in a lettar from J.

it S. Taylor, if, to G. A. Reed, WE, dated July 2, 1974.

.e July 2 E

letter enclosed a draft write-up of the ECCS analysis in a i

E generic format with specific plant dependent results left blank.

j Four blanks appear in the subject paragraph.

They are for normal j

pressure, sustained pressure, hole diameter, and creak flow rate.

In June of 1975, eleven months after receipt of the subject paragraph in generic format, WE submitted a re-evaluation of ECCS cooling performance and Amendment 16 to the FSAR.

Amendment 16 does not include the subject paragraph.

is not until more than three years after our receipt of the It subject paragraph in generic forinat that it is submitted, with blanks filled in, as part of Amendment 23 to the *.'SAR.

Nothing has been founo in our records to support the add 2 tion of the subject paragraph to section 14.3.1 of the FSAR.

Part 3 - Consequences If the subject FSAR paragraph is removed or revised, then the QA Policy Manual must be revised.

The QA Policy fianual defines the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary (RCPB) as the pressure-containing components such as pressure vessels, piping, pumps and valves and connections to the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) greater than 3/8 inches inside diameter.

Connections 3/8 inches or smaller are not considered part of the RCPB.

The basis for not including 3/8 inch or smaller connections in the RCPB is stated in Item 1, Section One of Appendix B to the Quality Assurance Policy Manual as follows:

"...not QA-scope because failure of these conrections results in a leak rate within the capability of the normal

{

reactor makeup water systems."

OF THE INDICATED SECTION:

O 2.2 - ReportabDity/OperobBity O 2.7 - corrective Action 1

1 EE No reference is cited in Appendix B to support the statement, but

{

Mr. Heiden, of QAS, suspects that the basis for the statement is the subject paragraph from the FSAR.

If no other justification aQ can be found, then th's QA Policy Manual must be revised.

k There are two ways that the OA Policy Manual could be revised.

o The first way is to remove the exclusion of 3/8 inch or smaller i

connections from the RCPB.

One obvious result is that the green-line drawings of the RCS in the QA Policy Manual would need to be Q

revised and appropriate parts upgraded to QA-scope, Information 5:

from the FSAR and fron Westinghouse Systems Engineering personnel EE indicates that adding small diameter piping to the QA-scope equipment list may not be an impossible task.

Section 4 of the FSAR describes the RCS pressure boundary and the j

codes and standards used in the design and maintenance of the

{

boundary.

There is nothing that differentiates 3/8 in, piping j

from the remainder of the pressure boundary.

l Mr. Jim Schlonsky (412-374-4258, spelling uncertain) of Westinghouse is familiar with the subject statement in the FSAR.

However, he was quick to point out that the statement should only be applied to plants with higher capacity centrifugal charging pumps.

The statement is inappropriate for a plant with positive displacement charging pumps bec,use the pump is obviously j

incapable of maintaining RCS inventory.

He stated that j

W

.19 house would never have put a statement like that into our j

FSAR because it is not necassary.

The Point Beach plant wss apparently built prior to the requirem7nt to classify RCS pressure boundary piping as is done today.

Newer plants are required to show that a small diameter pipe break will not challenge the engineered safety features j

because the small diameter piping was not, or could not, be built to the same standards as the large diameter piping.

The second way to revise the QA Policy Manual is to clarify the i

statement J

that a break in a 3/8 inch diameter pipe results in a leak rate within the capability of the normal reactor makeup water system.

Clarification should state that the basis for excluding small diameter piping from the RCPB is the' time j

available for operator response to a break.

g above.

(Connections to the reactor coolant system (RCS) j greater than 3/8 inch inside diameter are considered part of the RCPB, including branch outlet nozzles or nipples, instrument wells, reservoirs, studs and fasteners in flange T

l joints between pressure parts, traps, strainers, and

i E

3 are not considered part of the RCPB and are therefore not QA-scope.

Failure of a connection 3/8 inch diameter or i

smaller results in a loss of RCS inventory to which the j

operator can respond without activating the ECCS.

In the most likely condition, with at least two charging pumps l

available, the operator has several hours to identify and respond to the break.)

The OA Policy Manual should reference a formal calculation of the

^

l time available for operator response under a variety of conditiera as was estimated in part 1 of the evaluation.

Ruptures of small cross section will cause loss of the j coolant at a rate which can be accommodated by the charging pumps which 4 would maintain an operational water level in the pressurizer permitting f the operator to execute an orderly shutdown. A moderate quantity of l coolant containing such radioactive impurities as would normally be present in the coolant, would be released to the containment. j The maximum break size for which the normal sakeup system can maintain j the pressurizer level is obtained by comparing the calculated flow from l the reactor coolant system through the p. tulated break against the j charging pump makeup flow at normal reactor coolant system pressure, i.e., 2250 psia. A makeup flow rate from two charging pumps is typically 4 adequate to maintain pressurizer level long enough for the operator to j respond without activating the ECCS for a break through a 3/8 inch dia-j meter hole. Should a larger break occur, depressurization of the reactor coolant system causes fluid to flow to the reactor coolant system from the pres-surizer resulting in a pressure and level decrease in the pressurizer. Reactor trip occurs when the pressurizer low pressure trip setpoint is reached. The consequerces of the accident are Ifmited in two ways: 1. Reactor trip and borated water injection cc.Nlemer*, void formation in causing rapid reduction of nuclear powe-residual level cor-responding to the delayed fission and Vduct decay. 2. Injection of borated water ensures sufft .c flooding of the core to prevent excessive cladding tcaperatures. i i Revision 3 14.3.1-1 June 1990 NCR # N "GE z.s OF'O

NCR N-89-187 addresses a discrepancy in the FSAR LOCA analysis i regarding the ability of the CVCS charging system to maintain RCS inventory following a break through a 3/8" diameter hole. 1 i In your evaluation of this NCR (attachment A) you recommended that QAS { perform the following actions: i

1) Revise the QA Policy Manual in the interim to give a more l

accurate basis for excluding small diameter piping from being QA-l scope. 2) Investigate the effort required to remove the small j diameter pipinc exclusion from the Policy Manual. I In the course of completing these corrective actions, I have come to the following conclusions: 1

1) I do not agree with the proposed Policy Manual wording that

" connections 3/8" ID or smaller are not considered part of the RCPB..." This is not consistent with the 10CFR50'.2 definition of reactor coolant pressure boundary.

However, I

believe j 10CFR50. 55a (c) (2) (attachment B) provides a legitimate regulatory basis for excluding certain RCPB components from code requirements, and, therefore, from being QA-scope.

2) The only instances I identified in which the 3/8" exclusion was used were associated with impulse tubing to the LT-447 and LT-447A reactor vessel water level transmitters. Specifically, tubing and valves beyond the following root isolation valves was installed non-QA:

RC-500J, RC-500Q, and RC-579. Note that all of these valves are normally closed during reactor operation. (Various instrument impulse liner. shown as non-QA on the green line diagrams determined to have been installed and maintained QA-scope. were Corrections will be made to the affected green line diagrams.) I presented the above conclusions to the MSS in March, and based on the response I received (attachment C), I propose to revise the wording in the QA Policy Manual as shown on attachment D. Please i advise me whether you feel this is acceptable. If so, I will j consider QAS' portion of the corrective action for NCR N-89-187 to j be completed upon issuance of the revised QA Policy Manual Appendix B. i k $f NCR e N > 27 PAGE 5D OF 13
