Bases

3.3.3 1he total steam generator tube leakage llelt of ] GPM for all steamIgenerators ensures that the ~

i 4.3.3 dosage contribution f rom the tube leakage will be Ilmited to a small fraction of Part 100 limits in the event of either a steam generator tube rupture or steam Ilne break. 1he 1 GPM limit is  ;

j consistent with the assumptions used in the analysis of these accidents. The 500 gpd leakage 2

limit per steam generator ensures that steam generator ensures that steam generator tube integrity 15 maintained in the event of a main steam line rupture as under LOCA conditions. ** * ,

(

j Pressure Isolation Valves (PtVs) are defined for each interface as any two valves in series within the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure boundary,which separate the high pressure RCS from the j

attached low pressure systems. PIVs fall into two risk categories. The high risk PIVS are those whose gross failure could result in an Event V accident as identified in WASH-1400. "Reactor Safety Study". II.he Event V valves at Zion are ,1dentified as those valves that isolate the i

residual heat removal system (RNR) from the RCS. These valves represent a high risk because their j failure could lead to en overpressurization of The RHR piping and its subsequent failure. The  ;

failure of the RNR piping represents a high risk. factor in the eventual occurrence of core melt due to the inability to estabilsh recirculation from *he containment sump. It also represents a i higher risk because the rupture of the RNR piping results in a LOCA that bypasses the i

1 containment. The remaining PIVs are of a lower risk because they do not lead to a LOCA that

~ bypasses containment or that ruptures lower pressure piping. Leakage past these valves still constitutes a degradation of the RCS pressure boundary as defined in 10 CFR 50.2.

Periodic tests or verifications of the leak tight integrity of all pressure isolation valves are  ;

4 necessary in order to ensure the integrity of the RCS pressure boundary. The Survelliance '

Requirements for PIVs provides added insurance of valve integrity and thereby reduce the l

probability of an letersystem LOCA. -
