Mechanical Snubbers Functional-Tact Accentance Criteria

{-

The mechanical snubber functional test shall verify that:

1.

The' force that initiates free movement of the snubber rod in either tension or compression is less than the specified maximum drag force.

2.

Activation (restraining action) is achieved within-the specified range of velocity or acceleration in both. tension and compression.

3.

Snubber release

rate, where
required, is within the specified range in compression or tension.

For snubbers spec.ifically required not to displace under continuous load, the ability of the snubber to withstand load without displacement shall be verified.

g.

service Life Monitorina The service life of-hydraulic and mechanical snubbers shall be monitored to ensure that the service life is not exceeded between. surveillance inspections.-

The maximum expected service-life--for various seals, springs, and other critical partsLshall be determined and established based on-engineering information and may be extended or shortened based on monitored test results-and; f ailure._ history.

Critical parts shall be replaced so that the maximum service life will not be exceeded during a period when the snubber is required to be OPERABLE.

The parts replacements shall be-documented and the documentation shallibe retained in : accordance with the applicable record ratantion provision of the quality assurance program description _ included.

At least two licensed operators shall be in the control room during reactor start-up, scheduled reactor shutdown and during recovery from reactor trips.

d.

An individual qualified in radiation protection procedures shall be onsite when fuel is in the reactor.

e.

All CORE ALTERATIONS after the initial fuel loading shall be directly supervised by either a licensed Senior Reactor Operator or Senior Reactor Operator Limited to Fuel Handling who has no other concurrent responsibilities during this operation.

f.

Administrative procedures shall be developed and implemented to limit the working hours of unit staff who perform safety-related functions; senior reactor operators, reactor operators, radiation control technicians, auxiliary operators, meter and control repairman, and all personnel actually performing work on safety related equipment.

The objective shall be to have operating personnel work a normal 8-hour day, 40-hour week while the plant is operating.

However, in the event that unforeseen problems require substantial amounts of overtime to be used, or during extended periods of shutdown for refueling, major maintenance or major plant modifications, on a temporary - basis, the following guidelines shall be followed:

a.

An individual should not be permitted to work more than 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> straight, excluding shift turnover time, b.

c.

A break of at least eight hours should be allowed between work periods, including shift turnover time, d.

Except during extentad shutdown

periods, the use of overtime should be considered on an individual basis and not for the entire staff on a shift.

Any deviation from the above guidelines shall be authorized by the General

Manager, Nuclear Operations or predesignated alternate, or higher levels of management.

Authorized deviations at the working hour guidelines shall be documented and available for NRC review.
