High Pressure Core Spray Line (P410/P411) i The high pressure' core spray line penetrates both the containment and the dryvell and connects to the reactor pressure vessel.

Isolation is provided by a hydraulically testable check valve inside the dryvell and a motor operated gate valve as close as possible to the outside of the containment vall.

This gate valve maintains long term leakage control.

Position indication for the hydraulically testable check valve is provided in the control room.

The gate valve is automatically and remote-manually operated.

A guard pipe is not necessary since the high pressure co;e spray fluid is at an energy ?.evel during system operation that containment overpressurization cannot result should the line break between the containment and the dryvell.

A branch line connects to the Feedwater line outboard of the second Feedwater chec valve, which is outboard of the containment. This branch line provides the pathway for

RWCU water and RHR shutdown cooling water to retum to the reactor vessel. For the RHR shutdown cooling retum iine, a safety-related globe valve is treated as a high integrity containment isolation valve, similar to the Feedwater gate valves. The RHR system " outboard" of the globe valve is also treated as a closed system outside of containment, to control any leakage. For the RWCU return line, the piping " outboard" of j

the RWCU branch line check valve leads directly back to containment penetration P132, and is ASME Code Class 2, Seismic Category 1, protected from pipe whip, missiles and

jet forces, and analyzed for " break exclusion". This line is also treated as a closed system outside of containment (see Table 6.2-40 for testing details on containment penetrations). The design of these branch lines also provides an acceptable configuration.

Insert for NOTE 5 Page 6.2-250 l

The Appendix J Type 'C' test for the Feedwater lines is provided by the Type 'C' hydrostatic tests performed on the long term, high integrity leakage protection valves, i.e., the motor operated gate valves (B21-F065A/B). Water leakage from the Feedwater Leakage Control System (FWI.CS) piping, and from the bonnet, stem and seat of the motor operated gate valves, are controlled under the Primary Coolant Sources Outside Containment Program, Technical Specification 5.5.2. Outboard gate valve bonnet and stem leakage identified during the system walkdown at pressures >1000 psig will be eliminated. The gate valves will be closed during this check. Gate valve seat water leakage measured at lt 1.1 P. will be limited by the Program, which restricts allowable leakages to half of that assurned in the dose calculations (see Section 15.6.5.5.1.2.b).

\\

Note to reviewers:

i The following insert for NOTE 7 on page 6.2-250 is simply restoring the correct wording l

for this NOTE regarding closed systems outside containment. A change made in Revision 8 of the USAR had incorrectly revised NOTE 7 such that it became a specific note forjust one type of penetration (the airlocks), versus the generic note that it had 1

historically been. This is being corrected under the PNPP Corrective Action Program.

l The Insert to NOTE 7 therefore, is not a change being made as a result of the proposed feedwater penetration improvement amendment, per se, other than the addition of the l

reference to GDC 55.

...an isolation valve and a closed sy' tem outside containment which is in compliance s

with 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, GDC 54 and 55. A single active failure can be l

l accomodated. The closed system is missile protected, Seismic Category I, Safety Class 2, and has a temperature and pressure rating in excess of that for the containment. Closed system integrity is maintained and verified during periodic Type A test and during system leak tests (per NUREG-0737 ltem lli.D.1.1).

Insert to the "Feedwater shutoff valve malfunction" item The Feedwater Leakage Control System is vulnerable to this extremely unlikely event. However, the licensing basis for the Feedwater penetrations is that a water sealin the Feedwater piping outboard of the shutoff valves would remain for a sufficient length of time following the accident until the control room operator successfully isolates the motor-operated valves. Therefore, these valves are assumed to work. Also, each Feedwater line contains two check valves which are i

classified as containment isolation valves on this penetration, and they provide a redundant
