Date Putd6ehed: 2/26Se D6*crepency: DCR M3 97045 does not reference calculation for impact on service water cooling load.

DescriP tion: DCR M3 97045 reduces the containment recirculation system flow rate through the RSS heat exchangers. This will reduce the heat load on the service water system, No calculation is referenced in DCR M3 97045 which addresses the reduced heat load on the service water system, Calculation 90-0691065M3 through CCN #7 provides the hydraulic and thermalload analysis for the service water system and should be referenced in DCR M3 97045, it is recognized that the reduced heat lost on the service water system due to the reduced RSS flow rate through the containment recirculation spray coolers is in the conservative direction, However, changes in cooling load on the service water system due to plant design changes should be noted even if the service water flow balance is not changed as a result in the cooling load change.

Page 2 of the modification package states that the modification is consistent with the originalinstallation of the sump enclosure framing and specification 2199.142 993. RFl 845 specifically requested specification 2199,142 993 as referenced in DCR MS-97580. However, the response to the RFI, IRF 1467, stated that the wrong specification was requested and that the correct specification was 2199.292 993.

A review of specification 2199.292 993 confirms it to be the correct specification. H3 wever, no evidence is found which demonstrates that the work on the sump screens specified in the subjed modification is performed in accordance with specification 2199.292 993.

Date Pubashed: 2/2W9e 06*crepency: DCR M3 97102 and FSAR CR 97 MP3 569 are not consistent with each other.

Deecripewm: FSAR Secti:n 6.3.2.5 requires that a 50 gpm leak in the Engineered Safeguards Features (ESF) Building, excluding the pipe tunnels, be capable of being detected and isolated within 30 minutes. FSAR CR 97 MP3 569 changes the requirement to state that a 50 spm leak is capable of being detected and Isolated within approximately 30 minutes.

DCR M3 97102 does not achieve the requirement in FSAR Section 6.3.2.5, before or after FSAR CR 97.MP3 569.

Engineering Evaluation MS-EV 970281 provides the support for the conclusions in DCR MS 97102 and is attached to the DCR, According to engineering evaluation MS-EV.970281, paragraphs 1 & 2 on page 4, a 50 ppm seal failure in the RHS, RSS & SlH pumps would be detected in approximately 11 minutes. The same evaluation on page 7, states that prior to the modification a 50 gpm passive failure between the pipe tunnel and the CHS pumps would not be identified for a significantly longer time.

Page 7 of the evaluation states that after the modification, a 50 gpm passive failure between the pipe tunnel and the CHS pumps would be detected within 48 to 68 minutes. The detection time of 48 to 68 is not within the approximately 30 minutes as stated in FSAR CR 97 MP3 569, Review Val 6d inval6d Needed Date insistor: Feingold, D. J.

Description:

In the process of reviewing modification DCR M3 97063 and associated DCN-001122 97 the following is noted.

DCN-001122 97 states on ps0e 3 under the topic Specification Changes Required,

' Add snubber mark nos. 3 RSS-4 PSSP459 and 3-RSS-4 PSSP460 to the snubber list, Appendix U of Specification SP.

ME 570."

Based on a review of the subject DCN, no change paper incorporating the changes to Appendix U of Specification SP ME.

570 could be identified, in addition, the subject DCN also identifies the addition of other new pipe supports and the deletion of one support. It is believed these cases should be reflected by changes to the listin0 of pipe supports contcIned in Appendix M of Specification SP ME 570, The subject DCN does not mention this potential change to the specification or include any change paper to reflect its implementation, r

Discrepan:y:

DCN DM3-001122 97 does not provide change paper to implement the noted changes to specification SP ME 570 l Appendix U and does not identify or implement potential changes to Appendix M of the same specification, l Review t

The ACR Identiflod consistency problems in Calculation US(B).

326, US(B) 265 and US(B) 257. The recommended actions were as follows:

1. Evaluate the calculations and establish the base conditions.
2. Revise the calculations as appropriate.

The reportability review performed an evaluation of the calculations. However, the base conditions were not formally established as a result of this effort.

The calculations reviewed by the ICAVP (5/97) were the same as those reviewed by this ACR (8/96). Calculation US(B) 265, US(B) 278 and US(B) 326 were superseded by Calculation US(B) 362. Calculation: US(B) 257 and US(B) 295 were not revised and there is no indication that they are under revision.

Date: 2/17/98 REsot.UTION: Additional Background inform 6 tion Supplied By NU:

Subsequent NU review determined that the correct ' required pressure

  • on page 10 of the calculation is 1113 psia This lower pressure results in a flow rete of approx. 8.9x10E6 lb/hr, instead of the 7.55x10E6 lb/hr listed by the calculation. This higher flow rate in 235% of the normal fullload value Instead of the 200%

stated in FSAR Section 15.1.2. FSAR 8ection 15.1.2 concludes that the feedwater malfunction accidents are enveloped by the un:ontrolled rod cluster control assembly bank withdrawal accident of Sec.15.4.1. This statement needs to be reconfirmed for the feedwater control valve accident at 0% power with the higher tiow rate.

VT Leed: Rehets, Ral 0 VT Mgt schopfer, Don K b b b NtC Chmn: Singh. Anand K Date: 2/17/98 st.commenta: The revision to calculation [12179 735P(T)], which corrected tne math error, determined a flow rate that is 235% cf nominal flow.

This exceeds the limit assumed in the FSAR $15.1.2 analysis, 200 %.

The FSAR Identifies the controlling reactivity insertion event as a rod withdrawl from subcritical conditions. The reportability evaluation indicates that Westinghouse has been contacted to determine if the reactivity insertion limit will be exceeded by the higher flow rate (235% of nominal flow).

Closure of this DR requires the following documentation:

1) the results of the Westinghouse evaluation / analysis of the reactivity insertion for 235% of nominal feedwater flow for the zero power condition,
2) the reevaluation of the reportability of this issue, per 10CFR50.72, based on the results of the Westinghouse analysis (Item 1), and
3) a summary of actions and schedule that NU proposes for closure of this condition.

Background:

Pipe stress analysis calculation (1) for lines 3 SWP 750 ?$5 3,3-SWP 279 3 and 3 SWP 2814 is based on a maximum operating temperature of 160 de0 F.

According to the stress data package (2), under operating condition 14, the operatin0 process temperature for lines 3-SWP-750 255 3,3 SWP 279 3 and S SWP 2814 is 165 deg F.

Condition 14 is described as follows: Four hours after a Containment isolation Phase B (CIB) signal, reactor plant corpponent cooling must be re-established and the Post Accident Sample System (PASS) is in service and can be utilized to obtain a post accident sample, To provide flow to the post accident sample cooler, valves 3SWP'V839 & V842 are opened, Inlet temperature for the cooler is 75 de0 F and outlet temperature is 165 deg F.

For the 165 dog F maximum operating temperature, thermal expansion stresses will exceed ASME Code class 2 &3 allowable for Eqn.11 by 2.6% ,

Discrepancy:

The operating temperature used in calculation (1) has not been updated to be consistent with the latest revision of the stress data package (2).

NU has concluded that the issue reported in Discrepancy Report DR MP3-0316 has identified a condition previously discovered by NU which requires correction.

As shown in Unit 3 UIR 991 dated 10/2/96 (attached) and CR MS-

- 971596 dated 5/22/97 (attached), issues with service water operating conditions were identified previously. As a result of correctJve action associated with the CR, the subject pipe stress analysis was revised.

The operating conditions review determined that the specified maximum operating temperature for analysis of service water piping downstream of the PASS sample cooler should be 200 F.

The revised conditions are documented in Engineering Record Correspondence 25212 ER 97 0242 dated 10/27/97 (attached).

Design change M3 97 097 wu initiated to revise design conditions and rerate components as required; the package was closed out on 12/2/97. As part of this process stress data package SDP SWP-01370M3 Rev.10 was revised by CCN #1 dated 11/26/97 (attached).

The design change included removal of two service water pipe supports to accommodate the new temperature. Pipe stress calculation 12179 NP(F) 725 XD was updated by change notice CCN 2 dated 11/26/97 (attached), in this change notice the maximum reported Equation 11 stress is 16,731 psl, which satisfies the allowable stress of 18,750 psl. Thus the piping satisfies its current design basis requirements.

On the basis of the UIR and CR Identification of discrepant piping temperatures, and subsequent modification of the pipe stress analysis to fully bound the higher tempeiatures, the condition identified by S&t. is considered pre <liscovered.

Conclusion:

NU has concluded that the issue reported in Discrepancy Report DR MP3-0316 has identified a condition previously discovered by NU which required correction. The completed corrective actions associated with CR M3-971598 resulted in revision of both the calculation and the stress data package to account for the higher service water temperature.

INVALE Date: 2/20/98 RESOLUTION: Disposition:

NU has concluded that the issue reported in Discrepancy Report, DR MP3-0633, does not represent a discrepant condition.

Additional information attached to this response indicates that various pumps were evaluated for this condition, and that some of the pumps were recommendert for a design change. The commitment made in letter 813620 was to pursue a design change for those pumps where the evaluation determined that loosening and cracking of the shroud would be a problem. PIR 389-206 committed to a yearly inspection of the CCS, CCP and CC' motors, and an inspection every three years for the FWA, QSS, CHS, and SlH motors. A commitment to pursue a shroud attachment design change was made only for the CCS and CCP pumps due their frequent use and their previous history of shroud cracking. No problems had been experienced with the OSS motors. Following the initial failure of the CCP pump shroud, the evaluation by GE indicated that insufficient bolt torque was the likely contributor to the CCP pump shroud failure, as referenced in their letter EJH-90 005. In accordance with this recommendation, repairs were made to the QSS and other pump motors to install washers and loctite. This task was performed under AWOs M3 90-22672 and 9013804, inspection of the QSS*P3 pump motor shrouds is currently performed at a frequency of once in three years, and no problems have been detected. (A design change was pursued for the CCP motors due to continued problems with shroud cracking.)

The calculation referenced in the DR,3451B01 1232 Rev.0 [ sic.

3451B031232E3, Rev. 0) represents interim conditions during the development of DCR No. M3-97106, while the FSAR Section 6.3.2.8 referenced represents the existing Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) low-low level setpoint with existing instrument errors ano tank volumes. I&C Calculation 3451B03-01232 E3, Rev. O, titled 'RWST Level Interlock Channel Calibration" calculates instrument channel uncertainty and setpoints for low-low and empty level Instrumentation. This calculation supercededs calculation 3-ENG 111 which corresponds with the low low level setpoint analysic identified in FSAR Section 6.3.2.8.

Calculation 12179-BE 52YT qualifies the Standard Support Detail BE 52YT, but was never intended to have each support utilizing the detall listed within the body of the calculation, it was not possible to establish the exact number of supports that would utilize this typical detail at the time the calculation was prepared. However, for generhiacking purposes, each Conduit Support Log (CSL) was issued via the BE 52 Series, and E&DCR's which were posted against tne applicable Detail drawing,if required. A scarch in the General Records information Tracking System (GRITS) against Standard Support Detail drawing BE-52YT revealed that E&DCR F E-25923 was properly posted against it. Therefore, all applicable qualification documentation for the two Junction Boxes were property referenced and traceable to the as-installed mounting detall.Sigalficance Level criteria do not apply here as this is not a discrepant condition.

Description:

We have reviewed the Duct Support Calculation no. NP(F)-

2507A 123,Rev.1.

Based upon this review,wa have noted the following discrepancy:

The calculation NP(F) 2507123 has been revised to address the deletion of support DSA no.124.

The original analysis has been based on the assumption that the applied lateral loads will be equally distributed on two supports:

DSA no.123 and DSA no.124. Deletion of the support DSA no.

124 will result in the full load distribution on the only remaining support DSA no.123.Therefore,the applied lateral loads on the support DSA no.123 will double.The latest revision of the calculation has not reflected 100% load distribution on the support DSA no.123 and is still based on the original 50% load distribution input.

Preliminary review has determined that revised 100% load distribution will result in rverstress condition in two welded connections addressed on pages 17 & 18 of the subject calculation.

A search of the General Records Information Tracking System (GRITS) Database against BZ-507A for support DSA-123 and DSA 124 reveals E&DCR F B-12905 as a change document.

This E&DCR deletes support DSA 124 and adds support DSA-123. Calculation 12179-NP(F)-Z507A-123, Rev.1 was done to document the fact that support DSA-124 does not exist (See

' Reason for Change' on Pg. 3 of the Calc.). Revision 0 of this calculation called DSA-124 the interface between the Dampers and the connection at the embedded angles for the concrete opening at Elev 51'-0*. The bolted connection at the Interface is not given a support mark number, but does act as a restraint point which is capable of taking seismic loads (Refer to the Problem Solution, Item 3 of E&DCR F-B-12905, Pg.10 and the detail on Pg. 7 which have been incorporated onto BZ-507A-52 Pitnted 2/26S6 8.5420 AM Page 1 of 2

of the design loads to the frame analyzed as DSA-123 and the connection at the interface with the embedded angle and the damper flange ( which was once called DSA-124, but deleted from the calc and BZ Package). Even with 50 % of the load applied to the frame anelysis for DSA 123, the results are conservative since no connectivity is considered between the frame and the interface connection and the embedded angle, Significance Level criteria do not apply here as this is not a discrepant condition.

Date: 2/18/98 RESOLUTION: Disposillon:

NU has concluded that Discrepancy Report, DR-MP3-0779, does not represent a discrepant condition. Test Report Assessments (TRA's) evaluate and summarize the environmental qualification test reports and analyses used to qualify a component. Ti,ese assessments are developed generically for the use of all four units (CY, MP1, MP2, and MP3) as potential design inputs into the Equipment Qualification Records (EQR) revision process.

Assessments are not automatically applicable to MP3 until they are specifically referenced within an Equipment Qualification Record.

Although the condition described in DR-MP3-0780 is correct in that the Kerite cable identified in EEQ-TRA-107.7 did not undergo flame testing, it is not applicable to MP3, since this cable type is not used erinstalled at MP3. Additionally, EEQ-TRA-107.7 is not referenced within EQR 107 and therefore, not applicable to MP3.

To determine which TRAs are applicable from the Electrical Qualification Master List (EEQML) Index, the vendor EQR file needs to be reviewed since, the index only provided the vendor Pnnted 2/26Ge 8.s4 41 AM Page 1 of 2

Realizing that this can be confusing, the EQML was enhanced to include the specific EQR and TRA numbers in the index. This was accomplished by incorporation of DCN DM3-00196197 into Specification SP M3-E0353.

NU has concluded based on the above that Discrepancy Report, DR MP3-0780, does not represent a discrepa.it condition.

Conclusion:

NU has concluded based on the above that Discrepancy Report, DR MP3 0780, does not represent a discrepant condition. Since Test Report Assessment No. EEQ-TRA 107.7 is not applicable to MP3 Significant level criteria does not apply as this is not a discrepant condition.

l- .. DR N . DR-MP3 0881 Northeast Utilities ICAVP Millstone Unit 3 Discrepancy Repcrt NU has concluded that the issue reported in Discrepancy Report DR MP3-0881 does not represent a discrepant condition.

There is no programmatic requirement for the stress calculation to contain the ultimate disposition of load transmittals. The calculation is not a tracking document. The objective of the strcss calculations with respect to nonle loads is to determine equipment nonle loads The conclusion of the calculation also uses this terminology. Since there is no requirement, there is no discrepancy.

The nonle loads were reconciled in accordance with project procedure NETM-49. Calculations were prepared for the equipment as follows. The calculations are attached.

3EGF'P1A 12179-NP(F)-2743 3EGF*P1C 12179-NP(F)-2745 3EGF*TK1A 12179-NP(F)-2098 3EGF'TK1B 12179-NP(F) 2099 No calculations for the strainers were required because they are common in-line flanged piping components, and are not QA Category 1 (the correct equipment identifiers are 3EGF-STR2A/B, without the asterisk that would have indicated QA Category 1). See the attached drawing and PDDS listing page, The strainers are part of the fuel oil fill pipe hose connection and do not experience significant operating loads.

Significance Level does not apply here as this is not a discrepant item.

Conclusion:

NU has concluded that the issue reported in Discrepancy Report DR MP3-0881 does not represent a discrepant condition. The stress calculation is not required to contain the final disposition of nonle loads. Nonle loads are addressed separately in the attached calculations. Significance Level does not apply here as this is not a discrepant item.

O, dated 4/23/97 we noted the following discrepancy:

Background:

Based on the stress data package (i), under operating condition 7 the operating process temperature for lines 3-RSS-010-5-2 and 3-RSS-010-10-2 is 257 deg F. The corresponding pressure in these line: is 150 psig. This is an Emergency & Faulted condition which is descr! bed as follows ' Containment Recirculation Pumps take suction from the Containment Recirculation Sump and dischargo to the spray headers. A failure of one train of service water cooling to the Containment Recirc Coolers .

3RSS*E1 A& C results in the affected RSS train (E1 A, C) discharging hot sump water (257 deg F) to the ring headers and the unaffected RSS train (E1B, D) discharging cccled sump water to the headers'. The two RSS lines are analyzed in calculations X7903 and X7905.

Since a failure of either train of service water (A or B) needs to be considered, the same operating condition of 257 deg F, and 150 psig needs to be considered for lines 3-RSS-010 20-2 and 3-RSS-010-9-2. These two lines are analyzed in calculations X7902 and X7904.

The four pipe stress analysis calculations (ii) to (v), utilize a maximum operating temperature of 245 deg F. This represents the maximum containment recirc piping temperature, as calculatad in (vi).

Discrepancy:

The pipe stress calculations utilize Rev. 3 of the stress data package, and have not been updated to reflect the latest revision Printed 2/26/98 8.48.34 AM 0

X7904, and X7905 all reference Revision 3 of the RSS Stres; f%?a Package, all were revised as a result of the increased RSS pov 5tri temperatures, as stated in the ' Basic Analytical Data Suna N./ page contained in each calculation (see attached, page 21 of calculation NP(B)-

The worst case scenarios did not require the 257'F temperature, but required evaluation for temperatures of 230*F and 245'F, based on time phasing of containment structure movements. Revision 4 of GDP RSS-01361M3 also states that re analysis of the piping system was in progress during review and update of the SDP (See attached page 5 of the SDP),

.." Northert Utilities ICAVP Miiistone und 3 Discrepancy Report O P O 2r2m 1 IRC Chmn: singh, Anand K O m Oste: 2/16/98 sL comments: NU's disposition states that the discrepancy report does not i represent a discrepant condition because the calculation adequately explains how the criteria for maximizing stresses and support loads were developed, and the two worst case postulated LOCA combinations developed by the Nuclear Technologies Group (NTG) are utilized.

According to page 13 of the calculation, the finalized LOCA scenarios, as developed by the NTG, are documented in calculation 03705-US(B)-353. The two worst postulated LOCA scenario combinations (P02 and P24) were transmitted by NTG to the piping analysis group. Corresponding pipe temperatures for these two cases are 230F and 245F, At issue is the fact that the Stress Data Package (SDP) specifies a maximum operating temperature of 257F for the subject piping.

The disposition states that 'the worst case scenarios did not require the 257F temperature, but required evaluation for temperatures of 230F and 245F based on time phasing of containment structure movements'. This statement is not substantiated by calculation 03705-US(B)-353. None of the scenarios considered in the calculation lead to a pipe temperature of 257F. This is because the spray water outlet temperature of the recirculation spray heat exchanger RSHX [TDV300) as a funct!on of time in all scenarios considered is taken to be cooled sump water from the RSHX, The scenario leaoing to the 257F temperature corresponds to the RSHX discharging hot sump water due to a failure of one train of service water cooling. This scenario is not considered by calculation 03705-US(B) 353.

The SDF- specifies the 257F temperature for operating condition 7A/B. Condition 7 addresses one-half of the RSS coolers discharging hot, and one-half of the coolers discharging cooled sump water to the spray headers. The operating temperature for the spray header receiving cooled water is taken from calculation US(B)-353, as noted in Notes 1 and 3 of the SDP. The operating temperature for the spray header receiving hot sump water is 257F. Although the source for the 257F is not pr0vided in the SDP, the SDP does reference calculation US(B)-322 (Ref. 7a).

This calculation states that 'if the heat exchanger fails, then the piping of the recirculation spray system will be exposed to water at the temperature of the water on the floor', and provides the maximum temperature of the water on the floor as 256.9F.

According to the SDP: 'The SDP provides the system specification information required to perform the code piping stress analysis and therefore represents a design input documont for the pipe stress calculation. The SDP forms the basis for the input to the structural analysis of safety related piping systems and mechanical components. The SDP is reviewed for consistency with design basis assumptions regarding flowpath, single failure postulation, and operator action'.

Description:

Criteria Document no. NETM-45,Rev.1,titledfPipe Support Design Criteria *does not address the self weigh excitation of auxiliary steel support members.

Section 3.2.1 of the FSAR requires that all Category I Structures be designed to remain functional during a safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) and to be within the elastic limit for a vibratory motion at 50 percent of the SSE,which is called the operating basis earthquake (OBE).

INVALID:

Date: 2/17/98 RESOLUTION: NU has concluded that the issue reported in Discrepancy Report, DR MP3-0147, does not represent a discrepant condition. The design criteria for pipe supports do not require that the mass of the support structure itself be considered when qualifying the support for seismic loads. FSAR Section 3.2.1 refers to QA Category I structures, systems and components. Piping supports are QA Category I commodities which are designed to accommodate seismic loads developed in the piping system.

However, self weight excitation of support members is not addressed in the design criteria and is not considered to be in the licensing / design basis for Millstone Unit 3. This is appropriate since the loads imposed on a pipe support are typically much greater than loads which would be attributed to the seismic response of the support structure (since support structures are usually stiff and would respond in the rigid range), resulting in insignificant impact on the support design. Note however, that in a few unique cases, support structure calculations do consider self weight excitation (RSS piping supports with long cantilevers in ESF building), but only on an individual basis where the analyst utilized sound engineering judgment to address the unique circumstance. Significance Level criteria do not apply here as this is not a discrepant condition.

- FSAR is s licensing / Design basis document that reqaires that ALL Category I Structures be designed to sustain OBE and SSE earthquake.

The impact of seismic self weight excitation could become a

' factor if the support design does not provide sufficient margin from the applied loads.Althougi: the applied support loads are typically greater than the loads from the selsmic self-weight excitation, the contribution of the smaller loads can still result in the overall stress level that exceeds the allowable one where the design margin is insufficient.  !

- There is no specific criteria that establishes the fact that the supports are to be designed to respond in the rigid range. Based on the inspection of the support configurations, the statement that the support structures are "usually stiff" cannot be verified.
