Of the areas affected within containment at the completion of each containment entry when CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY is established.

d.

At least once per 18 months by:

1)

Verifying automatic isolation and interlock action of the RHR System from the Reactor Coolant System by ensuring that; a)

With a simulated or actual Reactor Coolant System pressure

/

signal greater than or equal to 360 psig the interlocks prevent the valves from being opened, and b)

With a simulated or actual Reactor Coolant System pressure signal greater than or equal to 662 psig the interlocks will cause the valves to automatically close.

2)

A visual inspection of the containment sump and verifying that the subsystem suction inlets are not restricted by debris and that the sump components (trash racks, screens, etc.) show no evidence of structural distress or abnormal corrosion.

~

At least once per 18 months, during shutdown, by:

e.

1)

Verifying that each automatic valve in the flow path actuates l

Verifying that each of the following pumps s' tart automatically upon receipt of a Safety Injection actuation test signal:

a)

Centrifugal charging pump, b)

Safety Injection pump, and c)

RHR pump.

f.

By verifying that each of the following pumps develops the indicated differential pressure on recirculation flow when tested pursuant to Specification 4.0.5:

1)

Centrifugal charging pump 1 2396 psid, 2)

Safety Injection pump 3 1412 psid, and 3)

1)

For centrifugal charging pump lines, with a single pump running:

a)

The sum of the injection line flow rates, excluding the

~,

highest flow rate, is greater.than or equal to 330 gpm, and b)

The total pump flow rate is less than or equal to 550 gpm, including a simulated seal injection flow of 80 gpm.

2)

For Safety Injection pump lines, with a single pump running:

a)

The sum of the injection line flow rates, excluding the highest flow rate, is greater than or equal to 439 gpm, and b)

The total pump flow rate is less than or equal to 655 gpm.

3)

For RHR pump lines, with a single pump running, the sum of the injection line flow rates is greater than on equal to 3804 gpm.
