DOC A.12 (CTS 1.0) is incorrect in that the definition is not deleted but relocated to various Bases in ITS 3.6. which is a less restrictive (LA) change. In addition, while DOC A.12 is correct in stating that it duplicates requirements that are appropriately l contained in other specifications, it limits it to just Primary Containment (CTS 3.6.1.1/ITS 3.6.1.1). This is incorrect. The items specified in the definition are also contained in i CTS 3/4.6.1.2/ITS 3.6.1.1, CTS 3/4 6.1.3/ITS 3.6.1.2, CTS 3/4.4.7, 3/4.6.1.8 and j 3/4.6.3/ITS 3.6.1.3, CTS 3/4.6.2.1/ITS 3.6.2.1/ITS 3.6.2.2, and CTS 3/4.6.4.2/ITS 3.6.1.7. ;

ITS B3.6.1.1 Bases- Background CTS 1.29 defines Containment integrity. A markup of CTS 1.29 is provided in the CTS markup of CTS 1.0. DOC A.12 (CTS 1.0) states that the definition of Containment

- Integrity is deleted from the CTS /ITS. DOC A.12 is incorrect. CTS 1.29.b states that "All equipment hatches are closed and sealed." ITS B3.6.1.1 Bases - Background states the following: "To maintain this leak tight barrier: c. All equipment hatches are closed; and..." The requirement for sealing the equipment hatches has been deleted. No justification is provided for this less restrictive change. Comment: Provide a discussion and justification for this less restrictive change.

, Integrity is deleted from the CTS /ITS. DOC A.12 is incorrect. CTS 1.29.f states that "The sealing mechanism associated with each primary containment penetration, e.g.,

welds, bellows, or O-rings, is OPERABLE." STS B3.6.1.1 Bases - Background has a similar statement defining the leak tight barrier. ITS B3.6.1.1 Bases - Background deletes this statement based on plant specific design details (JFD P.2). Since CTS 1.29.f is contained in the CTS, it needs to be included in ITS B3.6.1.1 Bases -

Background. Comment: Revise ITS B3.6.1.1 Bases - Background to include CTS 1.29.f or provide additional discussion and justification for its deletion based on system design, operational constraints, or current licensing basis. See RAI 3.6.1.3-7. A single answer will suffice for these two specifications, with reference to the RAI numbers.

3.6.1.14 DOC M.1 CTS 3.0.3 CTS 3.6.1.1 Actions CTS 3.6.1.2 Actions ITS 3.6.1.1 Actions CTS 3.6.1.2 Actions restrict reactor coolant heat up beyond 200*F if the containment leakage rates are outside established limits. The CTS markup of CTS 3.6.1.2 changes this requirement to !TS 3.6.1.1 Actions A and B. This change is characterized as a more restrictive change since the CTS Actions are non-specific as to the appropriate required p actions and ITS 3.6.1.1 Action A's completion time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months is more restrictive than CTS i J j

(Mode 3) and the containment leakage rates are outside established limits. In this case, CTS 3.0.3 or CTS 3.6.1.1 Actions are to be entered since they are equivalent. Because ITS 3.6.1 Actions are the same as both CTS 3.6.1.1 Actions and CTS 3.0.3, the !

replacement of these CTS Action requirements by the Actions of ITS 3.6.1 is an administrative change not a more restrictive change. Comment: Revise the submittal to l j

STS SR 3.6.1.1 requires the visual examination and leakage rate testing be performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix J as modifed by approved exemptions.

Changes to the STS with regards to Option A versus Option B are covered by a letter from Mr. Christopher 1. Grimes to Mr. David J. Modeen, NEl, dated 11/2/95 and generic change Technical Specifications Task Force ( TSTF)-52, as modified by staff comments of 10/96.

justifications used to make modifications (JFD P.4 and P.5) state that the discussion j eliminates the implication that the Bases imposes a restriction on allowed activities and the " commitment is essential to the allowance."

CTS 3.6.3 has been modified to include this ITS exception and justifies the exception by DOC A.3. This modification is acceptable.

7

. e.

However, CTS 3.6.3 is further modified by DOC A.3 to exempt the scram discharge volume (SDV) vent and drain valves, using the same justification. The staff does not agree that this is an administrative change and, therefore, the justification is insufficient.

The justification states that CTS LCO 3.1.3.1. addresses the necessary requirements for the valves. In fact, it only addresses the system function of the valves. The valves' other safety function, that is, containment isolation, is governed by CTS LCO 3.6.3. The valves' dual safety functions are both necessary, although the allowed outage times for inoperability are different in the two LCOs, which reflects the importance of the valves to each of the two functions. Under CTS, valve inoperability requires both LCOs to be satisfied; in general, the shorter response times of CTS LCO 3.6.3. would be most limiting and would have to be followed.

In addition, the ITS markup of ITS LCO 3.6.1.3 does not reflect this change, while the ITS markup of ITS B3.6.1.3 Bases - LCO does reflect this change.

The staff has no indication that the design of Fermi-2 is any different than any other BWR with regards to the SDV vent and drain valves. Thus the staff considers this change to be generic and beyond the scope of review for this conversion. Comment: Delete this generic chonge or justify the plant-specific issues that support it.

If the licensee chcases to provide a plant-specific justification for the change, provide revised proposed I.COs which retain the CTS requirements (i.e., which address the dual safety functions of the valves), or provide additional justification for the present proposed LCOs, in particularjustifying the proposed increase in allowed response time to inoperability, when compared to other containment isolation valves.

Fermi-2 response:

3.6.1.3-3 DOC A.5 CTS 3.6.3 Action a.2 and a.3 ITS 3.6.1.3 Required Action A.1 and Associated Bases CTS 3.6.3 Action a.2 and a.3 explicitly lists all acceptable isolation devices that may be used to satisfy remedial actions to isolate a penetration with an inoperable isolation valve. CTS 3.6.3 Action a.3 is modified to also include " check valves with the flow secured" and justifies this modification as an administrative change (DOC A.3). This change is not an administrative change but a less restrictive (L) change since it expands the list of acceptable isolation devices. Comment: Revise the CTS markup and provide j additional discussion and justification for this less restrictive (L) change.

[ ITS 3.6.1.1 ITS 3.6.1.3 Actions A, B, and C and Associated Bases CTS 3.6.3 Action b specifies the remedial actions to be taken for inoperable excess flow l check valves (EFCVs). DOC A.10 states that "The only Operability criteria associated

' with EFCVs is that they actuate to restrict flow, which is a qualitative leakage rate requirement." Thus, for the sake of simplicity, STS 3.6.1.3 Action D is modified in the ITS to combine the PCIV leakage rate failures into a single action. This is incorrect.

i While STS 3.6.1.3 Action D has been modified by TSTF - 207 to provide actions for j certain PCIV leakage, it did not include the EFCVs. See RAI 3.6.1.3-6 for additional j concems with regards to implementing TSTF-207. Furthermore, DOC A.10 implies ITS I- Action C would address all PCIV leakage which is not the case. STS/ITS 3.6.1.1 and i STS 3.6.1.3 Action A and C cover PCIV leakage and the associated actions for Type B l and C leakage as well as EFCVs' leakage. Furthermore, the statement in DOC A.10

with regards to the leakage being the only Operability criteria is incorrect. The

! associated ITS SR (SR 3.6.1.3.9)) requires the valve to actuate as well as restrict

leakage. A failure to actuate does not necessarily result in valve leakage if the valve l could be closed.

j in addition, DOC L.3 provides a justification for increasing the allowed outage time (AOT)

[ for an inoperable EFCV from a CTS AOT of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days 0.00111 hours 6.613757e-6 weeks 1.522e-6 months to an ITS time of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months . The basis for this change is TSTF-30. While the statement in DOC L.3 with regards to TSTF-30 is true, TSTF-30 did not change the Completion Time in STS 3.6.1.3 Action C ,

for restoring inoperable EFCVs from 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months . It only changed the j Completion Time for the other PCIVs in a closed system. l Since the design and function of the EFCVs at Fermi-2 do not seem to be any different than the EFCVs at other BWR/4 plants, the staff concludes that these change are generic and beyond the scope of review for this conversion.

Five changes have been made to STS 3.6.1.3 Action D; they are changes associated with (1) secondary containment bypass leakage, (2) main steam isolation valve (MSIV) leakage, (3) purge valve leakage, (4) hydrostatic tested valve leakage, and (5) EFCV leakage. The changes associated with EFCV leakage have been addressed in RAI 3.6.1.3-4. The changes associated with purge valve leakage are acceptable since it j maintains the current licensing basis. The changes associated with changes 1 and 2 are '

encompassed by TSTF-207. See RAI 3.6.1.3-6 for concems on TSTF-207 changes.

Wdh regards to the changes associated with the hydrostatically tested valve leakage, the hydrostatic test leakage is considered as part of the 10 CFR 50 Appendix J Type B and C leakage and thus is covered by STS 3.6.1.1 Actior,s and 3.6.1.3 Action A, B, and C for PCIVs.

In addition, application of TSTF-30 also requires the adoption of a Bases change. In particular, the Bases must state that the closed systems associated with the penetrations with single isolation valves must meet the requirements of Standard Review Plan Section 6.2.4. This portion of the TSTF was not adopted in the DECO submittal. Comments: Provide justification for applying the 72-hour completion time to hydrostatically tested lines with two isolation valves or adopt the standard. Also, modify the Bases to adopt the TSTF.

is modified by a Note that excludes valve actuation. This prevents a reactor pressure vessel blowdown." ITS B3.6.1.6 Bases - SR 3.6.1.6.2 modifies this paragraph by deleting the last sentence and modifying it as follows: "This SR... actuation, since valve actuation is addressed in SR 3.6.1.6.1." The justification used for the change (JFD P.4) states that the SR is intended to be performed while shutdown, thus the sentence regarding blowdown is inappropriate. This is incorrect. While it is true that valve actuation is addressed by ITS SR 3.6.1.6.1 and that ITS SR 3.6.1.6.2 is intended to be performed while shutdown, there may be instances when this SR is performed at power.

CTS 3.6.4.2 states that "All reactor building-suppression chamber vacuum breakers shall I

be OPERABLE and closed." ITS LCO 3.6.1.7 states that "Two reactor building-to-l suppression chamber vacuum breakers shall be OPERABLE." ITS B3.6.1.7 Bases -

l Background describes the vacuum breaker system as two lines each with two valves in series - a vacuum breaker and an air-operated butterfly isolation valve. The butterfly valve is normally closed and automatically opens upon sensing a set differential pressure. Bases on the proposed ITS markup of ITS LCO 3.6.1.7,3.6.1.7 Actions and the associated Bases, Fermi-2 does not consider the air operated butterfly isolation valve as a vacuum breaker but as only a containment isolation valve. If the butterfly valve was

! either normally open or closed, and received a containment isolation signal to close, then l

the staff possibly could consider this valve as solely a containment isolation valve.

However, based on the information provided in the ITS Bases that the butterfly valve opens on a differential pressure, the staff concludes that the primary safety function of this valve is a vacuum breaker and that the reactor building-to-suppression chamber vacuum breaker system design is no different than any other BWR/4 plant. Thus, the "all" in CTS 3.6.4.2 and "esch" in CTS 4.6.4.2 refers to both the butterfly valves and I vacuum breakers. Therefore, the changes made to STS LCO 3.6.1.7, STS 3.6.1.7 '

A markup of CTS 1.36 is provided in the CTS markup of CTS 1.0, but not in the markup of CTS 3.6. DOC A.12 (CTS 1.0) states that the definition of Secondary Containment Integrity is deleted from the CTS /ITS, because it duplicates requirements that are appropriately contained in specifications specifically CTS 3/4.6.5.1/ITS 3.6.4.1 " Secondary Containment." DOC A.12 (CTS 1.0) is incorrect and incomplete. DOC A.12 (CTG 1.0) is incorrect in that the definition is not deleted but relocated to various Bases in ITS 3.6. which is a less restrictive (LA) change.

In addition, while DOC A.12 is correct in stating that it duplicates requirements that are appropriately contained in other specifications, it limits it to just Secondary Containment (CTS 3/4.6.5.1/ITS 3.6.4.1). This is incorrect. The items specified in the definition are also contained in CTS 3/4.6.5.2/ITS 3.6.4.2 and CTS 3/4.6.5.3/ITS 3.6.4.3. (See RAls 3.6.4.1-2, 3.6.4.2-1, and 3.6.4.3-1). Comment: Revise the CTS markup of CTS 1.36 and CTS 3/4.6 to reflect the above discussion. Provide additional discussions and justifications for relocating the details of the definition to ITS 3.6.4.1,3.6.4.2,3.6.4.3 and their associated Bases. See RAls 3.6.4.2-1 and 3.6.4.3-1 A single answer will suffice for these various specifications, with reference to the RAI numbers.

CTS 1.36.e CTS 3/4.6.5.1 CTS 3/4.6.5.2 ITS 3.6.4.1 and Associated Bases ITS 3.6.4.2 and Associated Bases CTS 1.3.6 defines Secondary Containment Integrity. A markup of CTS 1.36 is provided in the CTS markup of CTS 1.0. DOC A.12 (CTS 1.0) states that the definition of Secondary Containment integrity is deleted from the CTS /ITS. DOC A.12 is incorrect.

CTS 1.3.6.e states that "The sealing mechanism associated with each secondary containment penetration, e.g., welds, bellows, or 0-rings, is OPERABLE." This statement cannot be found in ITS 3.6.4.1, 3.6.4.2 or their associated Bases. A similar type statement is in CTS 1.29 Containment Integrity and it will be found in ITS B3.6.1.1 Bases - Background. (See RAl 3.6.1.1-3). If this statement is being deleted, then the change would be a less restrictive change - LR or L, depending on whether it is being relocated to a licensee document or eliminated completely. If it is being relocated to ITS 3.6.4.1, 3.6.4.2 or their associated Bases, then the change would be either an administrative (A) change or a less restrictive (LA) change. See RAls 3.6.4.1-1 and 3.6.4.2-1. Comment: Revise the CTS /ITS markup of CTS 1.36.e with regards to the above discussion. Provide additional discussion and justification as necessary. See RAI 3.6.4.2-1. A single answer will suffice for these two specifications, with reference to the RAI numbers.

CTS 3.6.5.1 Action a.1 specifies the remedial acti:>ns to be taken for an inoperable secondary containment for reasons other than an inoperable railroad bay access door.

l CTS 3.6.5.1.b.1 specifies the remedial actions to be taken for an inoperable secondary l containment with an inoperable railroad bay access door. The corresponding ITS l Actions are ITS 3.6.4.1 Action A and Action B respectively. Based on the proposed i format and wording of ITS 3.6.4.1 Action A and Action B and the guidelines in the Writer's Guide, ITS 3.6.4.1 Action A and Action B should be in the reverse order (i.e.,

ITS 3.6.4.1 Action A should be ITS 3.6.4.1 Action B and ITS 3.6.4.1 Action B should be l Action A). Comment: Revise the CTS /ITS markup to put ITS 3.6.4.1 Action A and B in the correct order.

The # footnote in the ITS is now a Note in ITS SR 3.6.4.1.2 rather than as a Note to the Actions. This is an acceptable change. However, the ITS Note l

deletes the words "...provided the other door is OPERABLE and closed." As written in the ITS, the Note does not conform to the current licensing basis. The ITS would allow one railroad bay access door to be open for specified times and conditions while the other door is inoperable (ITS 3.6.4.1 Action b). This is not the intent of the CTS, and no justification is provided for this less restrictive (L) change in the current licensing basis.

Comment: Revise the Note associated with ITS SR 3.6.4.1.2 to require the other door to be Operable and closed, or provide the appropriate discussion and justification for this less restrictive (L) change.

JFD P.5 CTS 1.36 CTS 3/4.6.5.1 CTS 3/4.6.5.2 ITS 3.6.4.2 and Associated Bases Based on the CTS markup and the ITS markup, it is difficult to determine what is encompassed by ITS 3.6.4.2 and whether the CTS /ITS markups have been marked appropriately. Based on the CTS markup of CTS 1.36,3/4.6.5.1 and 3/4.6.5.2, it appears that the SCIVs encompass the following items: automatic valves, automatic !

ventilation dampers, manual valves, blank flanges, deactivated automatic valves, and l l deactivated automatic dampers. It is unclear from the CTS /ITS markup if the automatic I isolation system and the automatic valves specified in CTS 1.36.a.1 and 4.6.5.1.b.3 are i ,

I I 34 - l 4

l the same as the automatic ventilation dampers specified in CTS 1.36.a.2,4.6.5.1.b.3 and l

3/4.6.5.2. Since ITS 3.6.4.2 and ITS associated Bases only describes valves, it is assumed that the conversion resulted in a nomenclature change in that all valves and dampers are referred to as valves in the ITS. If the valves and dampers are the same and there are not other automatic SCIVs, then this portion of the concern is moot. If, however, there are additional automatic SCIVs not considered dampers, then CTS 3/4.6.5.1 needs to be marked up to reflect the Actions and surveillance requirements (SRs) imposed on these valves by ITS 3.6.4.2. In addition, based on the ITS markup of ITS B3.6.4.2 Bases - LCO, it is unclear whether manual valves and blind flanges are included as SCIVs, which would also affect the markup of CTS 3/4.6.5.1.

See RAls 3.6.4.2-3,3.6.4.2-4,3.6.4.2-7 and 3.6.4.2-8 for specific concems. Comment:

Clarify if the automatic ventilation dampers are the only automatic SCIVs. Based on the above discussion, and RAls 3.6.4.2-3, 3.6.4.2-4, 3.6.4.2-7 and 3.6.4.2-8, revise the CTS /ITS markup and provide the appropriate discussions and justifications.

3.6.4.2-3 DOC A.2 CTS 3/4.6.5.1 CTS 3.6.5.2 Actions ITS 3.6.4.2 Actions Note 2 and Associated Bases CTS 3.6.4.2 Actions are modified by ITS 3.6.4.2 Actions Note 2 which provides clarification that for the purpose of this LCO, separate Condition entry is allowed for each penetration flow path. This is an acceptable administrative change for CTS 3.6.5.2 since the wording of the CTS Actions would allow this. However, the Actions associated with CTS 3.6.5.1 do not allow this nor can they be interpreted to allow separate Condition entry. CTS 3.6.5.2 only applies to the ventilation dampers and the balance of the SCIVs (manual, blind flanges, and other automatic valves) are covered by CTS 3/4.6.5.1. Thus, CTS 3/4.6.5.1 needs to add this change which would be considered as a less restrictive (L) change. See RAls 3.6.4.2-2,3.6.4.2-4 and 3.6.4.2-8. Comment: Revise the CTS markup and provide the appropriate discussion and justification for this less restrictive (L) change. See RAls 3.6.4.2-2, 3.6.4.2-4, and 3.6.4.2-8.

ITS SR 3.6.4.2.3 requires the same test on a frequency of 18 months. The CTS markup shows that the test frequency detail of "during COLD SHUTDOWN or REFUELING" as being relocated to a licensee-controlled document that is not under regulatory program controls. The justification is incorrect. The details on when the test is to be performed are found in the Bases for ITS SR 3.6.4.2.3. The description in the Bases would require the test be performed during Cold Shutdown or Refueling, thus the change is a less restrictive (LA) change rather than a less restrictive ,

(LR) change. Comment: Revise the CTS markup and DOC LR.2 to show that this i information is relocated to ITS B3.6.4.2 Bases - SR 3.6.4.2.3 and that the change is less restrictive (LA) change.

This paragraph deals with those containment isolation valves that are required to be closed during an accident and are in the closed position during normal operation. This paragraph is omitted from the Bases discussion of LCO for ITS 3.6.4.2 and the Bases markup indicates this omission is justified by JFD P.5. JFD P.5 states that the discussion of these valves is incomplete and inconsistent. This is incorrect. The definition of Secondary Containment Integrity (CTS 1.36.a) tie the Operability of isolation valves to the integrity of a closed system. ,

The staff believes the STS wording is correct and should be retained. in addition, the 1 36 -
