(a) NRC letter fran Mr. G. Knighton to Mr. J. Carey, dated September 18, 1984 (b) DLC letter 2NRC-4-144, dated Septenber 14, 1984 Gentlemen: Duquesne Light Conpany (DLC), acting on its own behalf and as agent for The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Canpany, Ohio Edison Canpany, and The Toledo Edison Canpany, is filing herewith three (3) signed originals plus six (6) copies of Pre-Issue Revision No.1 to the proposed Technical Specifica-tions for the Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit No. 2 (BVPS-2) in accordance with 10CFR50.36 and Reference (a). This revision to the set originally submitted per Reference (b) is
-needed to incorporate recent plant design changes, to provide the necessary values and criteria for previously unfilled setpoints and specifications, to closer model the BVPS-2 Technical Specifications to be like the BVPS-1 Tech-nical. Specifications (as per Reference [a]), to correct typographical errors, and to incorporate changes resulting fran the resolution ~ of BVPS-2 Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) review conments fran NRR. These changes to the proposed BVPS-2 Technical Specifications have been derived fran the analyses and evaluations included in the BVPS-2 FSAR, and anendments thereto, submit-ted pursuant to 10CFR50.34.
Please insert the Pre-Issue Revision No.1 into the BVPS-2 Technical Specifications binders (provided by Reference [b]) as per the Revision Instruction Sheet. In Reference (a), the NRC indicated the staff review of the BVPS-2 Technical Specifications would conmence approximately 12-18 months prior to our expected date for issuance of our operating license. Since only 16 months exist before our expected loading of fuel at BVPS-2 and the SER for the BVPS-2 FSAR has been - issued, DLC requests that the review of the proposed BVPS-2 Technicai Specifications be conmenced as soon as possible to facili-tate the non-standard review which will be used on the BVPS-2 Technical Specifications. A longer review and conment resolution time is expected since the BVPS-1 Technical Specifications are going to be used for the first AD - J. Knight (ltr only) B601020050 8D1220 M/f ye'Nsal s i !

2.0 SAFETY LIMIT S AND LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS 2.1 SAFETY LIMIT S 2.1.1 REACTOR CORE BASES The restrictions of this safety limit prevent overheating of the fuel ami pos sible cladding perforation which would result in the rele ase of fis-sion products to the reactor coolant . Overheating of the fuel cladding is pr eve nt ed by res tr ic t ing fue l ope rat io n to within the nuc le ate boiling regime where the heat tr ans fe r coef ficient is large and the cladding surface temper atur e is slightly abov e the coola nt satur at io n tempe r a-ture. Operation above' the upper boundary of the nucle ate boiling regime could r es ult in excessive cladding te:speratures because of the onset of depar-ture fr om rucleate ' boiling (DNB) a nd the res ult ant sharp red uct io n in he at tr ans fe r coe f ficie nt . DNB is not a directly measurable par ase te r during operation and therefore,- THERMAL POWER and Reactor Coolant Temper-ature and Pressure have been related to DNB through the R-grid correla-t io n. The R-grid DNB correlation has be e n developed to predict the DNB flux and the loca t io n of DNB for axially uniform and rion-uniform, heat flux distributions. The local DNB heat flux ratio, DNBR, defined as the ratio of the heat flux that would cause DNB at a particular core location to the local heat flux, is indicative of the margin to DNB. The minimum value of the DNBR during steady state operation, normal oper-O ational tr ans ient s , and anticipated transients is limited to 1.30. This value corresponds to a 95 percent probability at a 95 percent conf ide nce level that DNB will not occur and is cho'se n as an appropriate margin to DNB for all operating conditions. The curves of Figures 2.1-1 and 2.1-2 show the loci of points of THERMAL POWER, Reactor Coolant System pres sure and average temperature for which the minimum of DNBR is no less than 1.30, or the average enthalpy at the vessel exit is equal to the enthalpy of saturated liquid. S The curves are based on an e nt halpy hot channel factor F'i M' f 1.55 and a reference cosine with a peak of 1.55 or axial power shape.

2.0 SAFETY LIMIT S AND LIMITING SAFETY SYST EM SETTING S 2.2 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS O (j 2.2.1 REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM IN STRUMDITATION SET POINT S 1 BASES REACTOR TRIP SET POINT S: The Reactor Trip Setpoint Limits specified in Table 2.2-1 are the values at which the Reactor Trips are set for each parameter. The Trip values have been selected to ensure that the reactor core and reactor coolant system are prevented from exceeding their safety limits. Operation with a Trip Setpoint less conservative than its Setpoint Limit but within its specified Allowable Value is accept able on the basis that each Allowable Value is equal to or less than the drif t allowance assumed to occur for each trip used in the accident analyses. MANUAL REACTOR TRIP: The Manual Reactor Trip is a redundant channel to the automatic protective instrumentation channels and provides manual reactor trip capability. POWER RANGE, NEUTRON FLUX: (} The Power Range, Neutron Flux channel high setpoint provides reactor core protection against reactivity excursions which are too rapid to be protected by temperature and pressure protective circuitry. The low setpoint provides redundant protection in the power range for a power excursion beginning from low power. The trip associated with the low setpoint may be manually bypassed when P-10 is active (two of the four power range channels indicate a power level of above approximately 9 per ce nt of RAT ED THERMAL POWER) and is automatically reinstated when P-10 becomes inactive (three of the four channels indicate a power level below approximately 9 percent of RAT ED THERMAL POWER), POWER RANGE, NETTRON FLUX, HIGH RAT ES: The Power Range Positive Rate trip provides protection agains t rapid flux increases which are characteristic of rod ejection events fr om any powe r level. Specifically, this trip complements the Power Range Neutron Flux High -and low trips to ensure that the criteria are met for rod ejection from partial power. O b B 2-4 BEAVER VALLEY UNIT 2
2.0 SAFETY LIMIT S AND LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS 2.2 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM INSTRUMDrTATION SETPOINT S BA SES The Power Range Negative Rate trip provides pr ot ect io n to ensure that the minimum DNBR is maintained above 1.30 for control rod drop accidents. At high power a single or multiple rod drop accident could cause local flux peaking which, when in conjunction with nuclear power being maint ained equivalent to turbine power by action of the automatic rod control system, could cause an unconservative local DNBR to exist. The Power Range Negative Rate trip will prevent this from occurrirs by tripping the reactor for all single or multiple dropped rods. INTERMEDIATE AND SOURCE RANGE, NUCLEAR FLl'X: The Intermediate and Source Range,_ Nuclear Flux trips provide reactor core protection during reactor startup. These trips provide redundant channels protection to the low setpoint trip of the Power Range, Neutron Flux channels. The Source Range Channels will initiate a reactor trip at about 10+5 counts per second unless manually blocked when P-6 becomes ac t ive . T he Intermediate Range Channels will initiate a reactor trip at a current level proportional to approximately 25 percent of RATl!D THERMAL POWER unless manually blocked when P-10 becomes active. No credit was taken for operation o f t he tr ip s associated with either the Intermediate or Sour ce Range Channels O. in the accident analyses; however , their functional capability at t he specified trip settings is required by this Specification to enhance the over all reliability of the Reactor Protection System.

OVERT EMPERATURE DELTA T : The Overtemperature Delta T trip provides core protection to prevent DNB for all combinations of pressure, power , coolant temper ature, and axial power distribution, provided that the tr ansient is slow with respect to piping transit delays from the core to the temperature detectors (about 4 seconds), and pressure is within the range between the High and Low Pressure reactor trips. This setpoint includes corrections for changes in density and he at capacity of water with temperature and dynamic campensation for piping delays from the core to the loop temperature detectors. With normal axial power distribution, this reactor trip limit is always below the core safety limit as shown on Figures 2.1-1 and 2.1-2. If axial peaks are greater than des ign, as indicated by the dif ference between top and bottom power range nuclear detectors, the reactor trip is automatically reduced according to the not at io ns in T able 2.2-1.

. . . . . I Operation with a reactor coolant loop out of service below the 3 loop P-8 setpoint does not require reactor protection system setpoint modi-fication because the P-8 setpoint and associated trip will prevent DNB d ur i ng 2 loop operation exclusive of the Overtemperature Delta T setpoint. Two loop operation above the 3 locp P-8 setpoint is permissible af ter resetting the K1, K2, and K3 inputs to the Overtemperature Delta T channels and raising the P-8 setpoint to its 2 loop value. In this mode of operation, the P-8 inter-lock and trip functions as a High Neutron Flux trip at the reduced power level.
OVERPOWER Delta T: The Overpower Delta T reactor tr ip pr ov ide s as sur ance of fue l integrity, e.g., no melting, under all possible overpower conditions, limits the required range for Overtemperature Delta T protection, and provides a backup to the High Neutron Flux trip. Tre setpoint includes corrections for changes in de ns ity and he at capacity of water with temperature, and dynamic compensation for piping delays from the core to the loop temperature detec-tors. No credit was taken for operation of this trip in the accident analy- / ses; however, its functional capability at the specified trip setting is \ required by this Specification to enhance the overall reliability of the Re ac tor Protection System. PRESSURIZER PRESSURE: The Pressurizer High and Low Pressure trips are provided to limit the pressure range in which reactor operation is permitted. The High Pressure trip is backed up by the pressurizer code safety valves for RCS overpressure protection, and is therefore, set lower than the set pr es s ur e for these valves (2485 psig). The Low Pressure trip provides protection by tripping the reactor in the event of a loss of reactor coolant pr e s s ur e . PRESSURIZER WATER LEVEL: The Pressurizer High Water Level trip ensures pr ot ect io n agains t Reactor Coolant System overpressurization by limitirg the water level to a volute sufficient to retain a steam bubble and prevent water relief through the pressurizer safety valves. No credit was taken for operation of this trip in the accident analyses; however , its functional capability at the specified trip setting is required by this Specification to enhance the over-all reliaoility of the Reactor Protection System.

SYSTEM IN SrRUMENTATION SETPOINT S BASES 1 DSS OF FLOW: The Loss of Flow trips provide core protection to prevent DNB in the event of a loss of one or more reactor coolant pumps. Above 11 percent of RAT ED THERMAL POWER, an automatic reactor trip will occur if the flow in any two loops drop below 90 percent of nominal full- loop flow. Above 31 percent (P-8) of RAT ED THERMAL POWER, automatic reactor trip will occur if the flow in any single loop drops below 90. percent of nominal full loop flow. This latter trip will prevent the minimuim value of the DNBR from going below 1.30 during normal operational transients and anticipated transients when 2 loops are in operation and the Overtemperature Delta T trip set point is adjusted to the value specified for all loops in oper ation. With the Overtemperature T trip set point adjusted to the value specified for 2 loop operation, the P-8 trip at 70 percent RAT ED THERMAL POWER with a loop stop valve closed will prevent the minimum value of the DNBR from going below 1.30 during normal operational tr ansients and antici-pated tr ansients with 2 loops in operation. ST EAM GENERATOR WATER LEVEL: The Steam Generator Water Level low-low trip provides core protection by preventing oper ation with the stean gener ator water level below the minimum volume required for adequate heat removal capacity. The specified setpoint provides allowance that there will be suf ficient water inventory in the steam generators at the time of trip to allow for starting delays of the auxiliary feedwater system.

This trip is redundant to the Steam Generator Water Level Low-Iow trip. The Steam /Feedwater Flow Mismatch portion of thts trip is activated when the steam flow exceeds the fe edwater flow by
>1.55 x 106 pounds / hour. The Steam Generator Low Water level portion of the trip is activated when the water level & ops below 25 percent, as indicated by the narrow range instrument. These trip values include suf ficient allow-ance in excess of normal operating values to preclude spurious trips, but will initiate a reactor trip before the stean generators are dry. T her e for e ,
! the required capacity and sta ting time requirements of the a2xiliary feed- ! water pumps are reduced and the resulting thermal transient on the Re actor Coolant System and steam generators is minimized. UNDERVOLTAGE AND UNDERFREQUDICY - REACTOR C001 ANT PUMP BUSSES: O The Undervoltage and Underfrequency Reactor Coolant Pump bus i trips provide reactor core protection against DNB as a result of loss of voltage or underfrequency to more than one reactor coolant pump. The speci-fied setpoints assure a reactor trip signal is generated before the low flow l tr ip setpoint is reached. Time delays are incorporated in the underfrequency ; l and undervoltage trips to prevent spurious reactor tr ips from momentary 1 electrical power transients. For undervoltage, the delay is set so that the time required for a signal to reach the reactor trip breakers following the simultaneous trip of two or more reactor coolant pump bus circuit breakers shall'not exceed 0.9 seconds. For under frequency, the delay is set so that the time required for a signal to reach the reactor trip breakers af ter the under frequency trip setpoint is reached shall not exceed 0.3 seconds. i O BEAVER VALLEY UNIT 2 B 2-8

Test results of this snubber may not be included for the re-sampling. If any snubber selected for functional testing either fails to lockup or f ails to move, i.e., frezen in place, the cause will be evaluated and if caused by manufacturec or design deficiency, all snubbers of the same defect shall be functionally tested. This testing requirement shall be independent of the requirements stated above for snubbers. not i meeting the functional test acceptance criteria. For the snubber (s) found inoperable, an engineering evaluation shall be performed on the components which are supported by the snubber (s). The purpose of this engineering evaluation shall be to determine if the components supported by the snubber (s) were adversely af fected by the inoperability of the snubber (s) in order to ensure that the sup-ported component remains capable of meeting the designed service. 4 d.

; a. The LLD is the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will be detected with 95 percent probability with 5 percent probability of f alsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" s ignal.
For a particular measurement ' system (which may include radiochemical sep ar at ion) LLD = 4.66 Sb (E) (V) (2.22) (Y) exp (-3 Delta T) where LLD is the lower limit of detection as defined above (as pCi per unit mass or volume); sb is the standard 'deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (as counts per minute) E is the counting ef ficiency (as counts per disintegration); V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume) 2.22 is the number of disintegration per minute per picoeurie; Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable); 3 is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide; Delta T is the elapsed time between sample collection (or end of the sample collection period) and time of counting (for environmental samples, not plant ef flue nt samples). The value of sb used in the calculation of the LLD for a detection system shall be based on the actual ' observed variance of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of the blank samples (as appropriate) rather than on a unverified theoretically predicted variance. In calculating the LLD for a radionuclide determined by gamma-ray spectrometry, the background shall include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally present in the samples (e.g. potassium it milk samples). Typic 71 values of E, V, Y, and Delta l9 T should-be used a the calculations. The LLD is defined as a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as a posteriori (af ter the fact) limit for a particular measurement.

- b. A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is l }
proportional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in 'a specimen which is representative of the liquids released.
- c. To be representative of the quantities and concentration of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shall be collected continuously in proportion to the rate of flow of' the ef fluent stream. Prior to analyses, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite smople to be representative of the ef fluent release,
- d. A batch release exists when the discharge of liquid wastes is from a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analysis, each batch shall be isolated, and then thoroughly mixed to assure representative smopling.
! e. A continuous release exists when the discharge of liquid wastes' is from a nondiscrete volume; e.g. from a volume of a system having an input flow during the continuous release. This is applicable to the Turbine Building drains when the secondary coolant gross radioactivity (beta and gamma) is 4 greater than 10-5 uCi/ml. l f. The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification will apply l are exclusively the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, ! p Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144. This list does not mean v that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, ' shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which 'are below the LLD for the analyses should be reported as "less than" the nuclide's LLD, and should not be reported as being present ~at the LLD level for that nuclide. The "less than" values should not be used in the required dose calculations. When unusual circumstances result in LLD's higher than required the reasons shall be documented in the semi-annual Radioactive ! Effluent Release Report.
- g. Whenever there is primary to secondary leakage occuring, sampling is done for turbine building drain ef fluents by means of grab samples ta'cen every 4 hours during the period of discharge and analyzed for gross l
' radioactivity (beta and gaussa) at a sensitivity of at le as t 10-7 uCi/ml and recorded in the plant records, along with the flow rate. Primary to i secondary leakage is considered to be occurring whenever measurements 1 indicate that secondary coolant gross radioactivity (beta and gmama) is greater than 10-5 uCi/ml.

3/4.0 APPLICABILITY BASES The specifications of this section provide the general requirements applicable to each of the Limiting Condition for Operation and Surveillance Requirements within Section 3/4. 3.0.1 This specification defines the applicability of each specification in terms of defined OPERATIONAL MODES or other specified conditions and is provided to delineate specifically when each specification' is applicable. 3.0.2 This specification defines those conditions necessary to consti-tute compliance with the terms of an individual Limiting Condition for Oper a-tion and associated ACTION requirement. 3.0.3 This specification delineates ~ the ACTION to be taken for circum-stances not directly provided for in the ACTION statements and whose occur-rence would violate the intent of the specifi.:ation. For example, Specif ic a-tion 3.5.1 calls for each Reactor Coolant System accumulator to be OPERABLE and provides explicit ACTION requirements if one accumulator is inoperable. Under the terms of Specification 3.0.3, if more than one accumulator is inoper ab le , the unit is required to be in at least HOT STANDBY within 1 hour and in an least HOT SHUTDOWN within the following 6 hours. As a further example, Specification 3.6.2.1 requires two Containment Spr ay Systems, to be OPERABLE and provides explicit ACTION r equirements if one spr ay system is inoper ab le: Under the terms of Specifi ation 3.0.3, if both of the required Containment Spr ay Systems are inoper able, n e unit is required to be in at O least HOT STANDBY within 6 hours, in at least HOT at0TDOWN within the follow-ing 6 hours and in at least COLD SHUTDOWN in the next 24 hours.

SIUTDOWN MARGIN requirements vary throughout core life as a function of fuel depletion, RCS boron concentration, and RCS T The most restrictive condition occurs at EOL, with T at no load *ol4 rating temperature, and is associated with a postulat.ed'sEeam line break accident and resulting uncontrolled RCS cooldown. In the analysis of this ac cide nt , a minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN of 1.77 percent k/k is initially required to control the reactivity transient. Accordingly, the SHUTDOWN MARGIN requirement is based upon this limiting condition and is consistent with FSAR accident analysis assumptions. With T < 200

- 1. acceptable power distribution limits are maintained,
- 2. the minimum SRUTDOWN MARGIN is maint ained, and
- 3. the potential ef fects of rod misalignment on associated accident analyses are limited.
OPERABILITY of the movable control assemblies is established by observing rod motion and determining that rods are positioned within + 12 steps (indicated position), of the respective group demand counter position. OPERABILITY of the control rod position indicators is required to determine control rod position and thereby ensure compliance with the control rod alignme nt and insertion limits. The ACTION statements which permit limited variations from the basic requirements are accompanied by additional restrictions which ensure that the original design criteria are met. Misalignment of a rod requires me asurement of peaking f actors and a restriction in THERMAL POWER. These restrictions provide assurance of fuel rod integrity during continued operation. In addition, those safety analyses af fected by a misaligned rod are re-evaluated to confirm that the results remain valid during future ope r at io n. The maximum rod drop time restriction is consistent with the assumed rod drop time used in the safety analyses. Me asur eme nt with T greater than or equal to 541*F and with all reactor coolant pumps operN$ng ensures that the measured drop times .will be representative of insertion times experienced during a reactor trip at operating conditions. Continuous monitoring of rod position with respect to insert ion limits and rod deviation is provided by the rod insertion limit monitor and rod deviation monitor , respect ivity. OPERABILITY of the rod deviation monitor is verified by comparison of the indicated positions versus the respective group y demand counters at least once per 12 hours. . If the rod deviation monitor or the rod insertion limit monitor is INOPERABLE, the frequency of manual comparison of indicated rod position is increased to an interval of at le as t once per 4 hours.

3/4.2 POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMIT S 3/4.2.1 AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE (AFD) () BASES The specifications of this section provide assurance of fuel integrity during Condition I (Normal Operation) and II (Incidents 'of Moderate Frequency) events by: a.' Maintaining the minimum DNBR in the core > 1.30 during normal opera-tion and in short term tr ansients , and
- b. Limiting the fission gas release, fuel pellet temperature and cladding mechanical properties to within assumed design criteria. In addition, limiting the peak linear power density during Conditions I events provides assurance that t he initial conditions asumed for the LOCA analyses are met and the ECCS acceptance criteria limit of 2200*F is not exceeded.
The definitions of hot channel factors as used in these Specifications are as follows: F9 (Z) Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor , is defined as the maximum local heat flux on the surf ace of a fuel rod at core elevation Z divided by the aver age fuel rod heat flux, allowing for manufacturing tolerances on fuel pellets and rods. N (~Y f Nuclear Enthalpy Rise Hot Channel Factor, is defined as
\~/ H the ratio of the integral of linear power along the rod with the highest integrated power to the aver age rod power.
The limits on AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE assure that the Fq (Z) upper bound envelope of 2.18 times the normalized axial peaking f actor is not exceeded during either normal operation or in the event of re non redis tr ibution following power ch'anges. Target flux difference is determined at equilibrium xenon conditions. The full length rods may be positioned within the core in accordance with their ree pective insertion limits and should be inserted near the ir normal position for steady state operation at high power levels. The value of the target flux difference obtained under these conditions divided by t he fr ac t ion of RAT ED TH ERMAL POWER is t he t ar ge t flux difference at RAT ED THERMAL POWER for the associated core burnup conditions. Target flux differences for other THERMAL POWER levels are obtained by nultiplying the RATED THERMAL POWER value bvy the appropriate fractional THERMAL POWER level. The periodic updating of the target flux difference value is necessary to reflect cora burnup considerations. O BEAVER VALLEY UNIT 2 l B 3/4 2-1 ( F

This deviation will not af fect the me non red is tr ibut io n suf ficiently to change the envelope of peaking factors which may be reached on a subsequent return to RATED THERMAL POWER (with the AFD within the target
- band) provided the time duration of the deviation is limited. Accordingly, a j 1 hour penalty deviation limit cumulat ive during the previous 24 hours is provided for operation outside of the targe t band but within the limits of Figure 3.2-1 while at THERMAL POWER levels between 50 percent and 90 percent i
of RAT ED THERMAL POWER. For THERMAL POWER levels between 15 percent and 50 i perce nt of RAT ED THERMAL POWER, deviat ions of the AFD outside of the t arge t j band are less significant. The penalty of. 2 hours actual time reflects this reduced significance. J Provisions for monitoring the AFD on an automatic basis are derived from the plant proce s s computer through the AFD Monitor Alarm. T he computer determines the one minute aver age of each of the OPERABLE excore 4 detector outputs and provides an alarm message immediately if the AFD for at le as t 2 of 4 or 2 of 3 OPERABLE excore channels are outside the t arge t band and the THERMAL POWER is gr e ate r than 90 per ce nt of RAT ED THERMAL POWER. O During operation at THERMAL POWER levels between 50 percent and 90 percent and 15 perce nt and 50 per ce nt RAT ED THERMAL POWER, the computer outputs an i alarm message when the penalty deviation accumulates beyond the limits of 1 hour and 2 hours, respectively.

3/4.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYST EM 3/4.4.1 REACTOR COOLANT LOOPS BASES The plant is designed to operate with all reactor coolant loops in operation and maintain DNBR above 1.30 during all normal operations 4 and anticipated transients. In MODES 1 and 2, with one reactor coolant loop 4 not in operation, THERMAL POWER is restricted to < 30 percent of RATED THERMAL POWER until the Overtemperature T trip II reset. Either act ion ensures that the DNBR will be maintained above 1.30. A loss of flow in two loops will cause a reactor trip if operating above P-7 (10 percent of RAT ED THERMAL POWER) while a loss of flow in one loop will cause a reactor trip if operating above P-8 (30 percent of RATED THERMAL POWER). In MODE 3, a single reactor coolant loop provides suf ficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat; however , due to the initial conditions assumed in the analysis for the control rod bank withdrawal from a 1 suberitical condition, two operating coolant loops are required to meet the DNB design basis for' this condition II event. In MODES 4 and 5, a single reactor coolant loop or RHR l subsystem provides suf ficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat; but single failure considerations require that at least two loops be OPERABLE. Thus , if the reactor coolant loops are not OPERABLE, this Specification requires two RHR loops to be OPERABLE. The operation of .one Reactor Coolant Pump or one RHR pump O' - provides adequate flow to ensure mixing, prevent stratification and produce gradual reactivity changes during boron concentration reductions in the , Reactor Coolant System. The reactivity change rate associated with boron reduction will, therefore, be within the capability of operator recognition and control. r The restrictions on starting a Reactor Coolant Pump with one or more RCS cold legs less than or equal to 275*F are provided to prevent RCS
, pressure transients, caused by energy additions from the secondary system, ,
which could exceed the limits of Appendix G to 10 CFR 50. The RCS will be protected against overpressure transients and will not exceed the limits of Appendix G by restricting starting of the RCP's to when the secondary water i temperature of each steam generator is less than 50*F above each of the RCS : cold leg ceaperatures. l 4 O BEAVER VALLEY UNIT 2 B 3/4 4-1 i
3/4.4 _ REACTOR COOLANT SYST_EM 3/4.4.1 REACTOR COOLANT LOOPS BA SES The requirement to maint sin the boron concenteation of an isolated loop greater than or equal to the boron concentration of the operating loops ensures that no reactivity addition to the core could occur during startup of an isolated loop. Verification of the boron concentration in an idle loop iimmediately prior to opening the stop valves provides a reassurance of the adequacy of the boron concentration in the isolated loop. Operating the isolated loop on recirculating flow for at leas t 90 minutes pr ior to opening its stop valves ensures adequate mixing of the coolant in this loop and prevents any reactivity ef fects due to boron concentr ation s tr at i ficat io ns . Startup of an idle loop will inject cool water from the loop into the core. The reactivity transient resulting from this cool water injection is minimized by delays isolated loop startup until its temperature is within 20*F of the operating loops. Making the reactor suberitical prior to loop startup prevents any power spike which could result from this cool water induced reactivity transient. O i O BEAVER VALLEY UNIT 2 8 3/4 4-2

I l1 The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam [ gener ator tubes ensure that the structur al integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained. The progr am for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision ;

is evidence of mechanical damage or progressive degr adation due to design, { manuf acturing errors, or inservice conditions that le ad to cor r os ion. [ l Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing also provides a means of I char acterizing the nature and cause of any tube degr adation so that I corrective measures can be taken. f 1 The plant is expected to be operated in a manner such that the r () secondary coolant will be maintained within those par ameter limits found to result in negligible corrosion of the steam generator tubes. If the secondary I f coolant chemistry is not maintained within these par ameter limits, localized ! corrosion may likely result in stress corrosion cracking. The extent of , cracking during plant operation would be limited by the limitation of steam l generator tube leakage between the primary coolant system and the secondary [ coolant system (pr imary-to-secondary leakage = 500 gallons per day per steam ! generator). Cracks having a primary-to-secondary leakage less than this limit during operation will have an adequate margin of safety to withstand the [ loads imposed during normal operation and by postulated accidents. Operating j plant have demonstrated that primary-to-secondary leakage of 500 gallons per ; day per steam generator can readily be detected by radiation monitors of , steam gener ator blowdown.

3/4.4 REACTOR COOLANT SY ST EM 3/4.4.6 REACTOR C00LAh*r SYSTEM LEAKAGE OPERATIONAL LEAKAGE RASES Industry experience has shown that while a limited amount of leakage is expected from the RCS, the unidentified portion of this le akage can be reduced to a threshold value of less than 1 gpm. This threshold value is suf ficiently low to ensure early detection of additional leakage. The 10 gpm IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE ' limitation provides allowance for a limited amount of leakage from known sources whose presence will not inter fere with the detection of UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE by the leakage detection systems. The CONTROLLED LEAKAGE limitation restricts operation when the total flow supplied to the reactor coolant pump seals exceeds 28 gpm with the modulating valve in the supply line fully open at a nominal RCS pressure of 2,235 psig. This limitation ensures that in the event of a LOCA, the safety injection flow will not be less than assumed in the accident analyses. The total steam generator tube leakage limit of I gpm for all steam generators not isolated from the RCS ensures that the dosage contribution from the tube leakage will be limited to a small fraction of P ar t 100 limits in the event of either a steam generator tube rupture or steam line break. The 1 gpm limit is consistent with the assumptions used in s the analysis of these accidents. The 500 gpd leakage limit per s te am s generator ensures that steam generator tube integrity is maintained in the event of a main steam line rupture or under LOCA conditions. PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE of any magnitude is unacceptable since it may be indicative of an impending gross failure of the pressure bound ar y. Should PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE occur through a component which can be isolated from the balance of the Reactor Coolant System, plant operation may continue provided the leaking component is promptly isolated from the Reactor Coolant System since isolat ion removes the source of potential failure.

Maintaining the chemistry within the Steady State Limits provides adequate corrosion protection to ensure the structural integrity of the Reactor Coolant System over the life of the plant. The associated ef fects of exceeding the oxygen, chloride and fluoride limits are time and temperature dependent. Corrosion studies show that operation may be continued with cont aminant concentration levels in excess of the Steady State Limits, up to the Tr ansient Limitc, for the specified limited time intervals without having a significant ef fect on the structural integrity of the Reactor Coolant system. The time interval permittirg continued operation within the restr ictions of the Transient Limits provides time for taking corrective actions to restore the contaninant concentrations to within the Steady State Limits. The Surveillance Requirements provide adequate assurance that conce ntr at io ns in excess of the limits will be detected in suf ficient time to take corrective action. o O BEAVER VALLEY UNIT 2 B 3/4 4-9
3/4.4 REACTOR COOLANT SY ST EM 3/4.4.8 SPECIFIC ACTIVITY O. BA SES The limitations on the specific activity of the primary coolant ensure that the resulting 2 hour doses at the site boundary will not
- exceed an appropriately small fr action of Part 100 limits following a steam gener ator tube rupture accident in conjunction with an assumed steady state pr imar y-to-secondary ste am generator leakage rate of 1.0 gpm.
The ACTION statement permitting POWER OPERATION to continue for limited time periods with the primary coolant's specific activity > 1.0 uCi/gr am DOSE EQUIVALEKT I-131, but within the allowable limit shown on Figure 3.4-1, accommodates possible iodine spiking phenomenon which may occur following changes in THERMAL POWER. Operation with specific activity levels exceeding 1.0 uCi/gr an DOSE EQUIVALDTT I-131 but within the limits shown on Figure 3.4-1 must be restricted to no more than 10 percent of the unit's yearly operating time since the activity levels allowed by Figure 3.4-1 increase the 2 hour thyroid dose at the site boundary by a factor of up to 20 following a postulated steam generator tube rupture. Reducing T to < 500*F prevents the release of activity should a steam generator fu$e rupture since t he satur at ion pr e~s sur e of the primary coolant is below the lift pressure of the atmospheric steam relief v alve s . The Surveillance Requirements provide adequate assurance that g-- excessive specific activity levels in the primary coolant will be detected in (_) suf ficient time to take corrective action. Information obtained on iodine spiking will be used to assess the par ameters associated with spiking phenomena.

3/4.4 REACTOR COOIANT SYST EM 3/4.4.9 PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE LIMIT S O BASES All components in the Reactor Coolant System are designed to withstand the ef fects of cyclic loads due to system temper ature and pressure changes . These cyclic loads are introduced by normal load transients, reactor tr ips , and startup and shutdown' operations. The various categories of load cycles used for design purposes are provided in Sect ion 3.9 of the FSAR. During startup and shutdown, the rates of . temper ature and pressure changes are limited so that the maximum specified heatup and cooldown rates ar e consistent with the design assumptions and satisfy the stress limits for cyclic operation. During heatup, the thermal gradients in the reactor vessel wall produce thermal stresses which vary 6com compressive at t he inner wall to tensile at the outer wall. These thermal induced compressive stresses tend to alleviate the tensile stresses induced by the internal pressure. Therefore, a pressure-temperature curve based on steady state conditions (i.e., no thermal stresses) represents a lower bound of all similar curves for finite heatup rates when the inner wall of the vessel is treated as t he governing location. The heatup analysis also covers the determination of pressure-temper atur e limitations for the case in which the outer wall of the vessel p becomes cl.e controlling location. The thermal gradients established during (/ heatup produce tensile stresses at the outer wall of the vessel. These s tr es se s ar e 9dditive to the pressure induced tensile stresses which are already present. The thermal induced stresses 'at the outer wall of the vessel are tensile and are dependent on both the rate of heatup and the time along the heatup ramp; therefore, a lower bound curve similar to that descr ibed for the heatup of the inner wall cannot be de fined . Subseque nt ly, for the cases in which the outer wall of the vessel becomes the stress controlling - location, each heatup rate of interest must be analyzed on an individual basis. The heatup limit curve, Figure 3.4-2, is a composite curve which was prepared by determining the most conservative case, with eitter the inside or outside wall controlling, for any heatup rate up to 60*F per hour . The cooldown lbsit curves Figure 3.4-3 are composite curves which were prepared based upon the same type analysis with the exception- that the controlling location is always the inside wall where the cooldown thermal gradients tend to produce ternile stresses while producing compressive stresses at the outside wall.{The heatup and cooldown curves were prepared based upon the most limiting value of the predicted adjusted reference 2 temperture at t he e nd of 10 EFPY.

Reactor oper at ion and r esult ant fast neutron (E>l Mev) irr adiat io n will cause an increase in the ENUT. Therefore, an adjusted reference temper ature, based upon the fluence, copper content and phosphorus content of the material in question, can be predicted using Figure B 3/4~.4-1 and Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 1, "Ef fects of Residual Elements on Predicted Radiation Damage to Reactor Vessel Materials" or the Westinghouse copper trend curves shown by Figure B 3/4.4-2. The heatup and cooldown limit curve s Figures 3.4-2 and 3.4-3 include predicted adjustments for this shif t in ENDT at the end of 10 EFPY as well as adjustments for possible errors in t he pr es s ur e a nd temper atur e se ns ing ins tr ume nt s . Heatup and cooldown limit curves are calculated using the most limiting value of RINUT (reference nil-ductility temperatur e) . ENUT increases as the material is exposed to fast-neutron radiation. T hu s , to find the mos t limiting RINDT at any time period in the r e ac t or 's li fe , RTNUT due to the radiation exposure associated with that time period must be added to the original unieradiated RINUT. The ' extent of the shift in RTNUT is enhanced by certain chemical elements (such as copper) present in reactor vessel steels. The Westinghouse trend CJ delta RTNUT for reactor vessel steels we shown in Figure B 3/4.4-2. Given the copper content of the mos t limiting material, the radiation-induced delta RTNUT can be estimated from Figure B 3/4.4-2.

3/4.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSrEM i 3/4.4.9 PRESSURE /T EMPERATURE LIMIT S 1 O BASES 1 -- At any time during the heatup or cooldown transient, KIR is determined I by the metal temperature at the tip of the postulated flaw, the appropriate I. value for RIMr , and the reference fracture toughness curve. The thermal i stresses resulting from temperature gradients through the vessel wall are calculated and then the corresponding (thermal) stress intensity factors , K It, for the reference flaw are computed. From equation (4-2), the pressure stress intensity factors are obtained and, from these, the allowable
; pressures are calculated, l For the calculation of the allowable pressure-versus-coolant i temperature during cooldown, the Code reference flaw is assumed to exist at
- the inside of the vessel wall. During cooldown, the controlling location of
- the flaw is always at the inside of the wall because the thermal gradients 4
produce tensile straisses at the inside, which increase with increasing l cooldown rates. Allowable pressure-temperature relations are generated for both steady-state and finite cooldown rate situations. From these relations , composite limit curves are constructed for each cooldown rate of interest. The use of the composite curve in the cooldown analysis is necessary because control of the cooldown procedure is based on measurement 4 of reactor coolant temperature, vaereas the limiting pressure is actually depe ndent on the material tempersture at the tip of the assumed flaw. During cooldown, the 1/4 T vessel location is at a higher temperature than the fluid adj acent to the vessel ID. This condition, of course, is not true for the steady-state situation. It follows that, at any given reactor coolant temperature, the delta T developed during cooldown results in a higher value ,
- of KIR at the 1/4 T location for finite cooldown rates than for steady };
j state operation. Furthermore, if conditions exist such that t he increase in KIR exceeds kit, the calculated allowable pressure during cooldown 4 will be greater than the steady-state value. t i The above procedures we needed because there is no direct ; I control on temperature at the 1/4 T location and, therefore, allowable pressures may unknowingly be violated if the rate of cooling is decreased at various intervals along a cooldown ramp. The use of .the composite' curve eliminates this problem and insures conservative operation of the system for i l the entire cooldown period. i t , I i t ! i- f l O BEAVER VALLEY UNIT 2 B 3/4 4-14 ! i k f 1 t l l

- Three separate calculations are required to determine the limit curves for finite heatup rates. As in done in the cooldown analysis, allowable pressure-temperature relationships are developed for steady-state conditions as well as finite heatup rate conditions assuming the presence of a 1/4 T defect at the inside of the vessel wall. The thermal gr adients during heatup produce compressive stresses at the inside of the wall that alleviate the tensile stresses rcoduced by internal pressure. The metal temperature at the crack tip lags the coolant temperature; therefore, the KIR for the 1/4 T crack is lower than the KIR for the 1/4 T crack during steady-state conditions at t he s ame coolant . temper atur e .
During heatup, especially at the end of the tr ans ient , conditions may exist such that the ef fects of compressive thermal stresses and lower KIR's do not offset each other , and the pressure-temperature curve based on steady-state conditions no longer represents a lower bound of all similar curves for finite heatup rates when the 1/4 T flaw is considered. Therefore, both cases have to be analyzed in order to insure that a: any coolant temperature the lower value of the allowable pressure calculated for steady-state and finite 'heatup rates is obtained. ! The second portien of the heatup analysis concerns the calculation of pressure-temperature limitations for the case in which a 1/4 7 O deep outside surface flaw is assumed. Unlike the situation at the vessel inside sur f ace, . the thermal gr adients established at the outside sur f ace during heatup produce stresses which are tensile in nature and thus tend to reinforce any pressure stresses present. These thermal stresses are dependent on both the rate of heatup and the time (or coolant temperature) along the heatup camp. Since the thermal stresses at the outside are tensile and increase with increasing heatup rates, each heatup rate must be analyzed on an individual basis. Following the generation of pressure-temperature cur'ves for both the steady-state and finite heatup rate situations, the final limit curves are produced as follows: A composite curve is constructed based on a point-by point comparison of the stesdy-state and finite heatup rate data. At any given temperature, the allowable pressure is taken to be the lesser of the three values taken from the curves under consideration. The use of the composite curve is necessary to set conservative heatup limitations because it is possible for conditions to exist wherein, over the course of the heatup ramp, the controlling condition switches fr om t he inside to the outside and the' pressure limit must at all times be based on analysis of the most critical criterion. lthen, composite curves for the heatup rate data and the cooldown rate data are adju'sted for possible errors in the pressure and temperature sensing instruments by the values indicated on the respective Curves.

3/4.5 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEMS 3/4.5.1 ACCUMULATORS O BASES a The OPERABILITY of each of the RCS accumulators ensures that sufficient volume of borated water will be immediately forced into the reactor core through each of the cold legs in the event the RCS pressure falls below the pressure of the accumulators. This initial surge of water into 'the core provides the initial cooling mechanism during large RCS pipe ruptures. The limits on accumulator volume, boron concentration and pressure, ensure that the assumptions used for accumulator injection in the accident analysis are met. The limit of one hour for operation with an inoperable accumulator minimizes the time exposure of the plant to a LOCA event occurring concurrent with f ailure of an additional accumulator which may result in unacceptable peak cladding temperatures.

The fire suppression systems consist of the water system, , sprinklers, CO2 Halon and' fire hose stations . ' The collective capability of the fire suppression systems is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety-related equipment and is a major element in the facility fire protection program. In the event that portions of the fire suppression systems are inoperable, alternate backup fire fighting equipment is required to be made available in the af fected areas until the inoperable equipment is restored to i service. When the inoperable fire-fighting equipment is intended for use as a backup means of fire suppression, a longer period of time is allowed to provide an alternate means of fire fighting than if the inoperable equipment is the primary means of fire suppression. l1 The surveillance requirements provide assurance that the minimum OPERABILITY requirements of the fire suppression systems are ' met. An allowance is made for ensuring a suf ficient volume of Halon in' the Halon storage tanks by verifying the weight of the tanks. The Halon systems ar e indoce systems not susceptible to outdoor weather conditions. The systems are dry pipe (rust is not expected) gas suppression systems. In the event the fire suppression water system becomes inoper ab le, immediate corrective measures must be taken since this system provides the major fire suppression capability of the plant.
