SUMMARY
OF PLANT MODIFICATION COMPLETIONS JANUARY 1, 1987 - DECEMBER 31, 1987 Engineering Change Notice (ECM) P0898 1.%difications of Fire Protection System - Unit 2 Description The sprinklers in the aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) system were raised or lowered as required by this modification in the unit 2 reactor building on elevation 639*. Certain sprinklers were also rearranged slightly to percit adequate dispersion or water density over the reactor recirculatlon MG sets. Safety Evaluation The modification increased the effectiveness of the AFFF system by improving the spacing, coverage, and discharge of the sprinkler heads over the reactor recirculation motor generator (MG) sets. The AFFF system does not perform a safety-related function. However, proper design considerations were taken to ensure safety-related equipment in the immediate vicinity of sprinklers was not adversely affected. Thus, the margin of safety was not reduced. ECN P0896 Modifications of Fire Protection System - Unit 2 Description Installed automatic sprinklers in the unit 2 reactor building abovo elevation 593'. The modification included hangers to stpport the piping. Safety,_Ey uuation The modification minimizes the pr.tential spretni of a fire through the equipment hatch openings and stairwelic between elevations 593' and 621' of the unit 2 reactor building. Also, sprinklers were provided for areas on elevation 593' that were not covered by the existing sprinklo system. Therefore, the fire - protection capabilities of the plant were improsed. The modification did not degrade the reactor building integrity. The marrin of safety was not reduced. i ECN P0897 Modifications of Fire Protection System "n'.t 2 Description Installed automatic sprinklers in the unit 2 reactor building above elevation 621'.

F O ECN P0828 Modifications of Reactor Recirculation System - Unit 2 Description Installed fuse blocks, associated wiring, and fuses in the protective relay circuits of the 4KV reactor recirculation pump MG sets 2A and 2B. Safety Evaluation The modification was performed to bring BFN into compliance with 10CFR50 Appendix R. The added coordinating fuses did not degrade the seismic qualifications of the associated circuitry. The margin of safety was not reduced. ECN P5500 Modifications of Reactor Building Roof - Common Description Inspected and repaired the damaged areas of the reactor building roof. Safety Evaluation The repairs to the roof enhanced the margin of safety and improved secondary containment integrity. ECN P5420 Modifications of Test Ports (System 30, 31, 64) - Common Description The ECN was written for documentation only to "as-construct" drawings. The drawings provided for the installation of ventlock test holes in the heating, , ventilation, and air conditioning systems. Safety Evaluation The modification will not affect the seismic qualification or designed function of the heating, ventilating, and air-condi'loning c (HVAC) systems. It will facilitate the required postmodification testing for ECNs P3138, P3139, P0956, and P0870 through P0875. ECN P5303 Modifications of EECW System - Common Description The modification was for documentation only to "as construct" drawings to depict the actual plant configuration. TACF 0-85-029-067 was removed, which j had previously implemented the modification. The modification removed the l 8
i raised face from flange joints of the temperature control valve 67-62. Safety Evaluation The modification only altered the flange configuration used for mating valve 67-62 to its associated process piping. The modified joint will perform the same function as the original flange joint and its modified design meets the EECW system design requirements. Based on this, the margin of safety was not reduced. ECN PS309 Modifications of Cable Tray Support System - Unit 2 Description Performed modifications required to seismically qualify affected cable tray systems for unit 2 startup and interim operation. Work involved the cable tray supports at the intake pumping station and the unit 2 cable spreading room and the cable tray tunnel (rectangular portion of tunnel from the intake structure to the plant).

Safety Evaluation The modification was designed so that it did not degrade the qualification of the safety-related equipmerit which provides input to the RPS. Based on this, the margin of safety was not reduced. ECNs P5224 and P5433 Modifications of Refuel Floor Components - Units 1, 2, and 3 Description Revised the cribbing requirements for all components set on the refuel floor so as not to exceed 1000 PSF loading on the floor. Provided third laydown area for the unit ' reactor pressure vessel head during disassembly. Safety Evaluation Compliance with these cribbing requirements will ensure the refuel floor loading limits will not be exceeded. Therefore, the margin of safety was not reduced. ECN P3137 Modifications of Main Steam System - Unit 2 Descriptiqn The ECN was for documentation only to "as-construct" drawing 47W600-11 R17. The ECN added note 5 to the drawing. The piping classification was changed from P to M for CV-1-14D, 15D, 26D 27D 37D, 38D, 51D, and 52D. Safety Evaluation The valves are only needed for testing. They are not required for any safety-related function associated with closing the MSIV. Thus the Class P portion of piping associated with the test valves could be reclassified without adversely affecting the safety of the plant. 10
ECN P0877 Modifications Fire Protection Draft Stops - Unit 2 Description Installed draft stops around vertical openings between different reactor building floor elevations. Safety Evaluation The modification improved the effectiveness of the fire protection system. The operations of other systems were not affected. Therefore, the change did not reduce the margin of safety. ECW P0672 Modifications of Reactor Feedwater System - Unit 2 Description Removed pressure switches PS-3-57A, B, C, and D, and their associated wiring and replaced them with a wire connecting the mode switch (SA-S1) and relays 5A-K11A through D.

! ECN P0244 Modifications of Reactor Water Recirculation System - Unit 2 Description Replaced Foxboro transmitters, PDT-68-65 and PDT-68-82, with Rosemount. 11
Safety Evaluation The Rosemount transmitters serve the same functions as the Foxboro models, have proved to be more reliable, and their use will enhance the function served by the transmitters. Hence, the margin of safety has been enhanced. ECN P0093 Modifications of Primary Containment - Unit 2 Description Fabricated and installed torus access ladders inside the unit 2 torus. Modified the torus vent header collar supports. Fabricated and installed MK1 plates and increased existing fillet welds. The major portion of the work covered by the ECW was implemented during unit 2 cycle 4. It will be completed during the current unit 2 cycle 5 outage. Safety Evaluation ECN P0093 covers the modifications for the long-term torus integrity programs. The modifications covered by the ECN were tested and analyzed by CE. The data gathered by GE showed that the modifications, when performed, would be a great improvement over the present condition. Therefore, the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or the malfunction of equipment important to safety was not increased. ECN P0570 Modifications of Emergency DGs - Unit 3 peseription Replaced viscous type vibration damper with gear type vibration damper on the i unit 3 DG engines. The ECN was completed for unit 3. The modification had been previously implemented on units 1 and 2. Safety Evaluation ! The exchange of DG vibrational dampers (a gear-type for a viscous type) did not reduce the ability of the DGs to perform their function or increase the probability of their failure. The margin of safety was not reduced. ECN L1896/L1916 Modifications of Control Air System - Unit 2 Description Revised power sources for FSV-32-28A and FSV-32-29B and made final electrical tie-in for FCV-32-91. Power source for FSV-32-28A was changed from the plant , nonpteferred AC system B to an I&C AC system bus. FSV-32-29B power was changed from the I&C bus to the plant nonpreferred bus. The ECNs were field completed but postmodificattor testing is remaining, i 12
Safety Evaluation . The modification increased the reliability for keeping FSV-32-28A and -29B open during normal plant operation. The implementation of the ECNs will prevent spurious scram due to failure of one of the buses and, thereby, add to the safe operation of the plant. ECW P0974 Modifications of Cooling Tower 4KV Switch Gear - Common Description This ECW provides for the connection of the Environmental Qualification warehouse substation and the stoplight at the north nuclear plant road to the newly constructed AKV loop line/ cooling tower 4KV switchgear. The ECN is not complete. Safety Evaluation The addition of this modification and/or possible failure of the equipment will not create any different type of accident than previously evaluated. Also, loss of these additional loads will not impact safety of the plant operation or safe shutdown. Therefore, the margin of safety is not affected. ECN P0957 Modifications of Recirculation System - Unit 2 Description Replaced and/or modified part of the existing recirculation system piping susceptible to intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) with an improved stainless steel material that has increased resistance to IGSCC. The major portion of the field work covered by the ECN has been completed. Some minor support work and hydrostatic testing are all that remains to complete the ECN. Safety Evaluation All structures and components affected by this modification were replaced / repaired with equivalent or better materials which meet or exceed current design requirements.

Inspection and repair is being performed during the unit 2, cycle 5 outage. Safety Evaluation l The platform does not have a safety-related function. It is seismic Class I so that it will not fall during an earthquake and possibly damage safety-related equipment. The platform is anchored to the reactor building concrete structure. The additional loading of the concrete structure is negligible. Therefore, the probability of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety per;viously evaluated was not increased. 16
ECN L1970 Partial Modifications of EECW System . Description Replaced existing valves and made piping tie-in to the new stainless steel components (EECW supply for RHR pump seal heat exchangers). A small portion of the work covered by the ECM has been partially implemented on all 3 units. f Safety Evaluation The replacement valves and piping tie-ins do not change the operation or affect the ability of the EECW system to respond to an accident situation. The integrity of the EECW piping system was not reduced by the new material. The margin of safety was not reduced. ECN P0027 Modifications of Spent Fuel Storage - Unit 3 Description Removed the remaining old style fuel storage racks, control rod racks, and seismic bracing. New base plates, fuel racks, and control rod racks are remaining to be installed on unit 3. The ECN has been completed on unit 1 but only partially implemented on unit 2.
,e Safety Evaluation Seismic qualification of the racks and their arrangements were evaluated and approved. NRC approval was obtalned prior to implementation of the ECN. The margin of safety will be enhanced with the complete implementation of this ECN.
ECN P0085 Modifications of Primary Containment - Unit 2 Description Performed modifications for upgrading the existing drywell temperature and pressures instrumentation and annunciator used for the manual initiation ' of containment spray by the unit cperator. The major portion of the work covered by the ECN has been completed. Rerouting of some cables and performing postmodification testing will be performed prior to unit 2 startup. Safety Evaluation Implementation of the ECN serves to ensure mitigation of excessive drywell pressures and temperature. Therefore, the consequences of design basis accidents can be held within certain acceptable limits and maintain the containment integrity. The margin of satety will be improved through implementation of the ECN. ,

ECM P0126 Modifications of Various Systems - Unit 1, 2, & 3 Description The ECW provides for the replacement of the currently installed pressure, level, and temperature switches with analog transmitter / trip unit combinations (which provide continual monitoring of critical parameters in addition to performing basic logic trip operations) with the proposed analog transmitter / trip unJt system for engineered safeguard sensor trip inputs. Work that has been completed includes the installed conduits, cables, junction boxes, panels, and pressure tested instrument pensing lines on unit 2. Safety Evaluation The instrument functions will not be changed by the modification. The modification package was reviewed and approved by NRC prior to implementation. The likelihood of failure will be reduced by implementing the ECN. ECW P0533 Modifications of Temperature Monitoring System Description The ECN provides for the design, procurement, and installation of an improved temperature monitoring system for the torus. A major portion of the work has been completed during the unit 2, cycle 5 outage. The modification is still in progress. The physical work for this ECN was previously completed on unit 1. Postmodification test, however, remains to ba performed. The major portion of the ECN has been completed on unit 3. Safety Evaluation i The new monitoring system will provide a more accurate indication of torus water bulk temperature and the local temperature at each quencher than the old system could provide. The modification provides assurance that the torus temperature is within the prescribed limits set forth in the TSs; therefore, the margin of safety was not reduced. j ECN P0768 Modifications of RHRSW/EECW/RCW - Common Description i Revised drawings to reflect the required design pressure and temperatures for EECW and RHRSW systems, and the interfacing portion of the RCW system. Physical work remains to be implemented, hence, the ECN was not l complete. I 18
Safety Evaluation . The documentation change will not provide additional modes of failure. Documenting the "as-is" status of the equipment will provide an accurate base of technical knowledge on which to base future design or operations. No physical work was done to any system which would impact any actual I existing margin of safety already built into plant equipment. 4 ) I i i t

NEW TEMPORARY ALTERATIONS JANUARY 1, 1987 - DECEMBER 31, 1987 0-87-001-26 Installation of Alternating Current (ac) Recording Voltmeter Purpose This temporary alteration was installed to troubleshoot false starts on fire pump "C" and detect whether these false starts were initiated by the auto start circuitry of fire protection equipment. This was accomplished by attaching a recording ac voltmeter to the coil of the auto start relay for fire pump "C" motor (FPXC) and to the coil of the fire pump ' push button auxiliary relay (FPSL). Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occV"Jence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any TS was not reduced because the temporary - alteration did not affect fire pump "C" operability, the recording voltmeter was fused so that in the event of an accident or malfunction the meter would have tecome shorted and would have been cleared from the circuit on auto initiation, and work performed was within the scope of the current TS. 0-87-005-90 Change Continuous Air Monitor (CAM) Detectors to Meet New Sensitivity Requirements Pu rpose This alteration was accomplished in order to comply with the radiological environmental technical specification (RETS) and was issued to make I changes to CAM RM 90-252. The change included the replacement of the 4 particulate and iodine channel collectors with filter collectors and the replacement of the gaseous channel detectors from CM tubes to scintillation detectors. This alteration will remain installed until permanent changes are implemented by Design Change Requesc 3421. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any TS was not reduced because the building effluents will be continuously monitored by a noble gas monitor (instead of by noble gas, particulate, and lodino 20
monitors) and significant increases in particulate and lodine activity are always accompanied by increases in noble gas activity. The alteration does change the type of detectors referenced in FSAR Section 7.12.6 but the change is to the type required by the new TS (RETS ) .

0-87-008-57 Eliminate Loss of power and Undervoltage Load Shed Initiations Purpose This temporary alteration was issued to eliminate the loss of power and undervoltage load shed initiation on breaker 2B on 480V shutdown board 1A. The 480V shutdown board 1A is the power source for the control bay ventilation board A which feeds the control room emergency ventilation (CREV) system train A. This alteration will ensure the CREVS train A is operable for any design basis accident. Safety Evaluation Welther the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any TS was not reduced. The plant standby AC power supply feeds only one control bay ventila'.lon board which is in conflict with the FSAR. This temporary alteration resulted in supplying both control bay ventilation boards with standby AC power. The loading of the DG will not be increased by the adding of this extra load becauso RHR pump 1A will be removed from service. The power requirements for the other engineering safeguard systems will be satisfied. Also, during any design basis accident, two trains for the CREV system will be automatically available. 1-87-003-26 Temporary Repair of Fire Protection System piping Pu rpose This temporary alteration was issued to install a temporary patch on an 8-inch high pressure fire protection system distribution pipe to stop a pinhole spray leak.

particulate and iodine channel collectors with filter collectors and ; the replacement of the gaseous channel detectors from GM tubes to scintillation detectors. This alteration will remain installed until .
- permanent changes are implemented by Design Change Request 3421.
Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an , accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different typs than previously evaluated in the FSAR , was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any TS was not reduced because the building effluents will . be monitored by a noble gas monitor (instead of by noble gas, , particulate, and lodine monitors) and significant increase in particulate and lodine activity are always accompanied by an increase in noble gas activity. The alteration does change t.he type of detectors referenced in FEAR Section 7.12.6 but the change is to the type required by the new TS (RETS). 2-87-010-26 Provide Cooling Water and Drainage for Induction Heating Stress Improvements (IHSI) Heat Exchanger Pu rpose This temporary alteration was issued to provide cooling water and drainage for IHSI heat exchangers. This task was accomplished by i attaching a 1.25-inch line (hose) to valve wye located at R T-line on elevation 621' of the unit 2 reactor building and by attaching a 1.25-inch line (hose) to the roof drain HDR located at R U-line on elevation 573' in the unit 2 reactor building. 3 i Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an J accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or
; malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR j sas increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any TS was not reduced. The system was supplied raw water by three motor-driven vertical turbine pumpu rated at 2500 GFM each at 300-foot total head. Backup to those pumps is one diesel-engine-driven vertical turbine fire pump rated at 2500 GPM at 340-foot total head. The diesel-engine pump starts only after the three electric-motor-driven vertical pumps fall to supply adequate system pressure. Only or,e pump is necessary to supply the water i requirement for a fire in one of the safety-relsted areas specified in the TS. Two pumps would be required to handle the maximum switchyard fire. There was more than sufficient margin to carry this approximate 20 GPM cooling load and still maintain all fire loads.
The system will be returned to its original configuration when 4 requested by the shift engineer. I 25
2-87-011-303 Installation of Air Conditioning . purpose , E The purpose of this alteration was to provide cooling for unit 2 ~ drywell during reactor building closed cooling water (RBCCW) system outage by installing a temporary air conditioning system. a Safety Evaluation Weither the probability of the occurrence or the consequ2nces of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the - basis of any TS was not reduced. positioning of temporary air conditioning unit and associated equipment does not exceed design
- live loading of 400 pounds per square feet. Actual loading is 335 poundo per square feet. The cooling water for the temporary air conditioning unit is supplied by the nonsafoty-related raw cooling water (RCW) system and discharged to the nonsafety-related reactor building roof drain system. Also, the power supply to the unit is from an existing temporary source. Finally, the equipment will be removed prior to fuel load and is not located adjacent to any safety equipment required for this mode of operations. Temporary duct work is routed through primary containment which is not required (per TS 3.7.A) for this mode. All equipment is located in the secondary coatairment.
2-87-012-26 Temporary Repair of Fire Protection System piping Purpose The temporary alteration was issued to install a temporary patch on a 4-inch fire protection system distribution pipe to stop a pinhole leak. The location of the patch is in unit 2 reactor building on elevation 621' and the R-13 T-line. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the a basis of any TS was not reduced. The high pressure fire protection system pipe was not made inoperable by this temporary patch. The patch will prevent further degradation of piping resulting in the l, high pressure fire protection piping integrity being maintained. The ! original design of the piping system will not b= vltered by the patch. l 26
2-87-014-77 provision of Temporary Source of Electrical power to Sump Pump Instrumentation
- Pu rpose This temporary alteration will install a temporary source of 120V AC d
power to the drywell sump level monitoring instrumentation to provide level and alarm indication from LIS-77-1A and LIS-77-18. The normal power supply cables to this system were damagoi in the recent drywell fire and are to be disconnected while repairs are being made. This
- alteration will power the drywell drain sump level instrumentation to give operators control room indication and alarm of drywell sump level. Additionally, the high level alarm setpoint on those sumps will be temporarily raised to accommodate more volume before having to pump out the sumps.
Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or ma? function nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any TS was not reduced. The normal power source to the drywell sump level monitoring instruments will be unkva11able rhile repairs are made to that power source. Providing a temporary source of power to the drywell sump level monitoring instruments will restore these instruments to operations thereby providing the control room operators with alarm indications if there is any leakage within the drywell. Thus, the effects on safety normally provided by this l 5 system are restored. The temporary power supply is the 10A fused, l 120V AC service receptacles on panel 25-52 which has a nonsafety-related power source. Hence, there is no effect on other 1 safety systems. The requirements for operability of these systems is ! not in effect per section 3.6.C.2 of the TS since unit 2 is shutdown 4 and the reactor is defueled. This temporary alteration will b6 removed and the normal power supply to the drywell monitoring l instruments restored and the high level setpoint returned to the original values prior to unit 2 refueling. i 3-87-001-26 Temporary Repair of Fire protection System piping i Pu rpose ) This temporary alteration was issued to install a temporary patch on a 4-inch fire protection system distribution pipe to stop a pinhole leak.

SUMMARY
OF SPECIAL TESTS COMPLETED JANUARY 1, 1981 - DECEMBER 31, 1987 ST86-14 Verification that inoperative Trips are Caused by Circuit-Boards-Out-of-Circuit in the Neutron Monitoting Systems Test Objective This test was performed to determine whether the inoperative trip function of the neutron monitoring system functions as required by TSs when the circuit board is removed. The results of this test will be used to determine whether justification exists for deleting the requirement for removing circuit cards from circuits during the performance of surveillance functional tests. Deletion of this removal step will help prevent equipment degradation. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an ac;ident or malfunction of a different type then previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defit ed in the basis for any TS was not reduced because all testing performed on the neutron monitoring system components was performed in the logic bypassed configuration which is described in the ?SAR and the number of instrument channels allowed to be bypasced by the TS tus not exceeded. ST86-19 Temperature and Dewpoint Traverse of Drywell and Suppression Chamber Test Obiective This special test was performed to obtain temperature and dewpoint area data within the drywell and suppression chamber to determine the best location for containment intergrated Icak rate test (CILRT) inst rumentation. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident malfunct!gr yn malfunction of a differentnor typethe possibility than previouslyforevaluated an accident or FSAR in 'he was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basic for any TS was not reduced because the test was performed while I the unit was in the cold shutdown mode, the drywell head was unbolted , l and vented, and the primary containment was not required to be

ST86-25 Standby Liquid Control (SLC) Special Sodium pentaborate Analysis Test Test Objective This test was performed to verify that proper dissolving and mixing of sodium pentaborate in the SLC tank.could be achieved by agitating the solution with air. Air sparging was conducted at a constant rate with periodic axial sampling until the difference in concentrat3on between axial samples was acceptable. The sparging time that yields the desired accuracy will be established as the minimum sparging time for all future surveillances. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated ir; the PSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any TS was not reduced because the SLC system is not specifically required to be operable while each unit is in cold shutdown with fuel removed, but the system was fully functional during testing. The testing did not affect any systems other than the SLC system. The testing did not affect any of the variables or components of the SLC system. ST86-26 Alternate Rod Injection Backup Scram Valve Diagnostics Test Objective The objective of this test included the collection of unit 1 scram valve reaction data on specific hydraulic control units (HCU) during an alternate rod injection (ARI) scram. This data will be used to support the design of the ARI system. Safety Evaluation 4 Neither the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor '.he possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increaced or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any TS was not reduced because all ine fr91 was removed from the reactor vessel and the test did not affect any system or equipment required to maintain the fuel in a safe configuration. Also, TS 3.1 allows for the disablement of the RpS when fuel has been removed from the vessel. The performance of ST86-26 did not alter or disable any system or equipment necessary to mitigate or prevent any accident or malfunction, which can affect the fuel or spent fuel , pools. 32
L 'f ST87-01 Ventilation System Flow Measurnments - Test Objective The objective of this test was to collect dimensional data for use in establishing the location of ventilation monitoring sample probes and determining the current vent flow rates. Knowing the exact nozzle location, nozzle ID and velocity at the nozzle, sample flow rates can be determined and isokinetic conditions established and existing plant instructions can be properly updated to assure compliance with the radiological effluent technical specification (RETS). Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any TS was not reduced because the probes and continuous air monitors (CAMS) taken out of service served no accident mitigation function, the isolation of secondary containment was not impaired, all work (with the exception of probe measurements on the reactor zone exhaust duct) are outside of this boundary, any exhaust leakage during work on the reactor zone ducts was contained by the refuel floor exhaust system and could be isolated by its isolation features as described in section 5.3 of the FSAR, and because the performance of this test did not place the plant in noncompliance with the TS. ST87-02 EECW System Loss-of-power Test Task Objective The purpose of this test was to measure the amount of drain down leakage that will occur in the EECW system during a loss-of-offsite power. The test configuration simulated the plant configuration that would exist during a loss-of-offsite power by isolating raw cooling water (RCW) and raw service water (RSW) from the EEC'l system and then stopping all of the EECW pumps. The amount of EECW system drain down was measured by a gauge glass installed on the north header at the LS-67-52 location. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FCAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any TS was not reduced because the EECW system south header was operable during the performance of this test and it was capable 33

2-BFN-RTP-027 Condenser Circulating Water . Objective -- The objective of the condenser circulating water (CCW) restart test program test instruction is to verify operability of the crosstle valves, condenser waterbox outlet butteefly valves, and the condenser waterbox vacuum priming system. It also provides test instructions I for verifying instrumentation loops for the continuous warm water 4 channel level and forebay / warm water channel differential level indications in the control room bay. Lastly, the test provides for verifying the vacuum breaking capability of the condenser circulating water system. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrenct; or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created because no test conditions are specified or actions will be conducted that conflict with the functions of the CCW or vacuum priming system as described in the FSAR. The TSs are not J affected b/ the test. No margin of safety for any TS is reduced by this test. This test will be performed to meet the safe shutdown i requirements as identified by the DBVP test requirements. 4 i 2-BFN-RTP-030 DG Building and Reactor Building Ventilation System objective ! The purpose of this restart test procedure is to verify proper l operation of the DG exhaust fans with their associated damper motor operators and battery vent hood exhaust fans, determine the air l temperatures surrounding an idling and fully loadins diesel for ) analyzing heat loads, and determining the proper operation of the stairwell and battery rooms exhaust fans. These tests are to verify that the system can meet the functional requirements for mitigation and shutdown from events resulting from modes identified in the scope j of the DBVP. I Safety Evaluation i This test instruction does not involve a change in the faellity design or plant operating characteristics from that described in the FSAR and which could impact nuclear safety. The system being tested l is the DG building and reactor building ventilation system. This test identifies normal system operation. Hence, neither the
- probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a l
l 67 i
B different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR.was increased or created, and the margin of nafety as defined in the basta of any TS was not reduced. 2-BFN-RTP-032 Control Air /Drywell Control Air Objective The purpose of this test instruction is to describe the tests necessary to demonstrate and document that the control air system (CAS) and drywell control air system shutdown features can perform their required safety function for the safe shutdown of unit 2. Specific objectives of the tests address testing the CAS primary containment isolation valves for proper closure upon receipt of a PCIS isolation signal, loss of control air, or loss of power; verifying adequacy of the control air supply to the MSRV accumulators and their storage capacity for supporting the automatic depressurization system (ADS) function and the MSIV accumulators for one closing cycle of these valves; and to check the seals and door interlocks for the equipment access door. Leak rate tests are also inherently addressed in this testing. Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created, and the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any TS was not reduced because test conditions are specified or actions conducted that do not cotiflict with the automatic or manual operation of the system as described in the FSAR and are not different from normal testing or previously conducted tests. Also, testing of the ADS accumulators is performed by MMI-42 (which has been previously evaluated for safety considerations) which requires the unit to be in cold shutdown. This test is bounded by accidents and malfunctions previously analyzed in the FSAR and will be conducted within the bound of the TSs. 2-BFN-RTP-057-1 125V Direct Ourrent (DC) System Test Objective The overall objective of this instruction is to insure that testing of the 125V DC system can provide its design function in support of reactor safe shutdown. This will be accomplished by demonstrating that the 125V DC batteries are capable of supplying their asalsned loads for safe shutdown by performing a battery capacity test and by demonstrating the 125V DC battery chargers' output voltage rippio is within design limitations by monitoring the voltage during battery recharge. 68
Safety Evaluation . Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created because this test utilizes BI-4.9.A.2.c alone to verify proper operation of the batteries. No other test steps are required. Hence, strict adherence to the TS is assured. The FSAR assumes that testing of the batteries will be performed to verify performance, thus this condition is no different than those analyzed for the FSAR. The design of the electrical system and TS allow for systems to be out of service for testing, thus the margin of safety is not reduced. 2-BFN-RTP-057-3 250V DC Distribution System-Unit Batteries Objective This restart test instruction is designed to determine and document that the 250V DC dintribution system-unit batteries perform as required to support the safe shutdown of the reactor. This test includes discharge capacity testing of the units 1, 2, and 3 batteries. The most recently performed battery discharge test data for the units 1 and 2 batteries will be reviewed for acceptability to satisfy the discharge test requirements for those batteries.

CHANGENOTICESFORRESTARTTESTPROCEDUREhISSUED JANUARY 1, 1987 - DECEMBER 31, 1987 2-BFN-RTP-0.14 R1 Raw Cooling Water (RCW) System Reason The purpose of this restart test procedure is to specify the functional testing required to demonstrate that RCW system will meet the design baseline evaluation requirements and minicum operational requirements. Unito 1 and 2 control bay air chiller temperature control valves are operable and fail open on loss of air. RCW system provides pressure boundary integrity to EECW by verifying that normally open RCW check valves shut when flow in transferred from RCW to EECW and EECW header pressure is maintained. EECW alignment will ensure the autostart on a simulated RCW header low pressure. RCW pumps ID and 3D backup control from outside the control room is operable. RCW pumps auto start on low RCW discharge pressure and auto stop when RCW discharge pressure is sufficient. RCW booster pump auto start and auto stop functions are operable. Long layup time and corrosion problems have not degraded the RCW heat exchanger and cooler flows snd that the component flow is sufficient to support unit startup. RCW pumps and RCW booster pumps supply adequate discharge head.
- Safety Evaluation Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or
- malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR i
was increased or created because accident conditions, functions, and tests demonstrated by this test are in the description Jf the RCW system in the EFN FSAR. The RCW system does not affect TSs. i Therefore, the margin of safety for any TS is not reduced by this test. 2-BFN-RTP-025 CN-1 Raw Service Water (RSW) System Reason Because of installed instrument locations and the lack of installed i flow elements, volumetric flow obtained is suspect. Also, given that
' shutoff head' measurements meet acceptance criteria and that a i; single RSW pump can raise level in the RSW head tank, flow curve
! comparisons are unnecessary. Hence, this test instruction was revised to delete the requirement for the RSW pump flow to be within 50 spm of the design curve. i 80 1
Safety Evaluation . This change is bounded by the approved unecviewed safety question determination (USQD) and does not constitute a change in procedural detail in the FSAR or TS or any other safety analysis that supports a licensing document. Although this intent change deleted flow rate acceptance criteria for the RSW pumps, flow rate for the RSW pumps is not addressed in the FSAR (section 3.11) or the TS. This test does not confirm a safe shutdown requirement or mode for the RSW system.

It does, however, tighten the acceptance criteria from "two percent or loss" to "one percent or less for ripple." 2-BFN-RTp-057-4 CN-4 480V AC Distribution System Reason The reason for this intent change was to increase the neope of the test to include 480V shutdown board for units 1 and 3 in addition to those for unit 2. All 480V shutdown boards have been determined to be required for unit 2 safe shutdown. Therefore, instead of having to test only unit 2 shutdown boards, units 1 and 3 shutdown boards must be tested and verified operable.

2-BFN-RTP-057-4 CN-5 480V Distribution System Reason This intent change notice was issued to add instruction clarification and verification and documentation of the 480V control bay vent board A and the 480V load shedding capabilities of the 480V distribution system. This revision also included changes of the acceptance criteria to agree with test requirements documentation. Safety Evalaution This test instruction revision does not involve a change in the , facility design or plant operating characteristics from that described in the FSAR and which could impact nuclear safety. It is bounded by the approved USQD for the origiaal instruction. The changes to the system being tested, 480V distribution system, involves use/ additions to the PORC approved procedure and does not exceed the bounds of the design bases. 2-BFN-RTP-057-4 CN-6 480V Distribution System Reason The basic test instruction (2-BFN-RTP-57-4) is performed concurrently with SI 4.9.A.1.b. The SI initiates the load shedding and this test instruction is used to document the events. Hence, this test instruction was revised because of SI 4.9. A.1.b revisions to accommodate load shed documentation. Safety Evaluation This test instruction does not involve a change in the facility design or plant operating characteristics from that described in the FSAR and which could impact nuclear safety.

Safety Evaluation . 1 Neither the probability of the occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction nor the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated in the FSAR was increased or created because the configuration of the plant electrical distribution system is in an analyzed condition. In worst case, a loss of all offsite power or en electrical fault on either shutdown bus or the bus tio board, the shutdown boards would be isolated and start the DG just as they would in normal configuration. TS 3.9.B.5 allows all unit 1 and unit 2 shutdown boards to be fed from one shutdown bus for a limited amount of time. Therefore, the margin of safety will not be reduced.

The section deleted is no longer a requirement of this test. 2-BFN-RTP-082 CM-4 Standby DGs Reason Fuel oil transfer pump steps were deleted and replaced because the initial steps in the procedure did not result in properly priming the transfer pumps. The revised steps utilized an air hose priming method. This also required replacement of existing data sheets 7.1 thru 7.8 to correspond to these revised steps. Minor procedural clarification was also made to properly describe the stop switch as a pair of stop buttons. Safety Evaluation This change is bounded by the approved USQD and does not constitute a change in procedural detail in the FSAR or TS. This intent change does not change test objectives, acceptance criteria, or any ot the conditions established during testing. 2-BFN-RTp-082 CN-10 Standby DG Reason This revision was made to address the calibration of overcurrent relay in accordance with preestablished DPSO procedures.

This change is bound by the USQD for system test 2-BFN-RTP-082 R0. i 2-BFN-RTP-090 CN-05 Radiation Monitoring System Reason This revision was issued to ensure that the test requirement to verify that a trip signal is sent to the CREV system on receipt of a simulated high radiation signal was properly cross-referenced to another instruction. Hence, the requirement to satisfy this step is included in another procedure.

i Safety Evalaution . This change is bounded by the approved USQD and does not constitute a change in procedural detali in the FSAR or TS. This change does not change test objectives, acceptance criteria, or any of the conditions established during testing. 2-BFN-RTp-090 CN-06 Radiation Monitoring System Reason Test objectives were added to verify that all main steam line and all reactor building ventilation exhaust line radiation monitor channels respond when exposed to gamma flux sources. This verification was added because the test objectives, test descriptions, and acceptance i criteria were not clear as to the requirement to check i detector / monitor response. Changes were made to clarify the procedure. Safety Evaluation This change is bounded by the approved USQD and does not constitute a change in procedural detail in the FSAR or TS. This change does not change test objectives, acceptance criteria, or any of the conditions established during testing. i 2-BFN-RTP-090 CN-07 Radiation Monitoring System Reason This change incorporates the revised acceptance criteria and lists i the steps to test the requirements. Verification that a PCIS group 6 i isolation signal overrides all manual-electric operations of valves with the exception of emergency open steps were added because of the acceptance criteria changed during the revision of the test, but the changed criteria was not incorporated into the test Latil this change notice. Step 6.24, verification that the isolation valves of the drywell radioactive particulate, iodine, and gascous monitors close on receipt of group 6 isolation signal from PCIS was deleted because this step does not apply to this test and requirement to perform this step was transferred to 2-BFN-STS-p064A. The use of SI 4.2.A.10 was deleted as the instruction for verifying that reactor building ventilation monitors provide a (reset) signal to the PCIS when the monitor loses voltage. 1 l 1 i f 81

TRANSMISSION LINE CORRIDOR HERBICIDE USAGE JANUARY 1, 1987 - DECEMBER 31, 1987 The herbicide Spike (dry flowable [DF)) was used on a section of the BFN-West Point 500-kV transmission line in calendar year 1987. Spike
> DF is a preemergence herbicide manufactured by Elanco Products Company under environmental protection agency (EPA) registration No. 1471-147 (specimen label'and product safety data cheet attached).
The BFN-West Point 500-kV transmission line right-of-way is 200 feet wide; however, vegetation is controlled on a 150-foot wide section leaving a 25-foot wide buffer rone on each outer edge of the
.right-of-way. The right-of-way is maintained by a combination of mechanical clearing and herbicide application.
The herbicide Spike (DF) was applied on approximately 10 miles of this right-of-way by the banding method to eliminate danger to trees and to maintain the ISO-foot right-of-way. The banding method consists of applying a single band, approximately 2 inches wide, along each outer edge of the cleared section of right-of-way. A total of 122 pounds of Spike (DF) was applied by the banding method of 24.24 acres at the rate of 5 pounds (4.25 pounds active ingredients) per acre with water as the carrier. The combination of mechanical clearing and herbicido treatment has proven effective and cost efficient in controlling undesirable vegetation along transmission line rights-of-way. l j 90
