a.

At least once per 31 days by:

1)

Starting each containment fan cooler unit and verifying that each containment fan cooler unit operates for at least 15 minutes, DIABLO CANYON - UNITS 1 & 2 3/4 6-13 Amendment Nos.ll and 9 l

3/4.6 CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.6.1 CONTAINMENT 3/4.6.1.1 CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY ensures that the release of radioactive materials from the containment atmosphere will be restricted to those leakage paths and associated leak rates assumed in the safety analyses.

This restriction, in conjunction with the leakage rate limitation, will limit the SITE B0UNDARY radiation doses to within the dose guideline values of 10 CFR Part 100 during accident conditions.

3/4.6.1.2 CONTAINMENT LEAKAGE The limitations on containment leakage rates ensure that the total contain-ment leakage volume will not exceed the value assumed in the safety analyses at the peak accident pressure, P,.

As an added conservatism, the measured overall integrated leakage rate is further limited to less than or equal to 0.75 L, or less than or equal to 0.75 L, as applicable, during perfomance of t

the periodic test to account for possible degradation of the containment leakage barriers between leakage tests.

'the surveillance testing for measuring leakage rates is consistent with the requirements of Appendix J of 10 CFR Part 50.

t l

l 3/4.6.1.3 CONTAINMENT AIR LOCKS l

The limitations on closure and leak rate for the containment air locks

'.are required to meet the restrictions on CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY and containment leak rate.

Surveillance testing of the air lock seals provide assurance that

.the overall air lock leakage will not become excessive due to seal damage during the intervals between air lock leakage tests.

3/4.6.1.4 INTERNAL PRESSURE The limitations on containment internal pressure ensure that:

(1) the containment structure is prevented from exceeding its design negative pressure differential with respect to the outside atmosphere of 3.5 psig, and (2) the containment peak pressure does not exceed the design pressure of 47 psig during LOCA conditions.

The maximum peak pressure expected to be obtained from a LOCA event is 46.65 psig. This includes the limit of 1.2 psig for initial positive contain-ment pressure.

The total pressure is less than design pressure and is con-sistent with the safety analyses.

DIABLO CANYON - UNITS 1 & 2 B 3/4 6-1 Amendment NosJI and 9 l

CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.6.1.5 AIR TEMPERATURE The limitations on containment average air temperature ensure that the overall containment average air temperature does not exceed the initial temperature condition assumed in the safety analysis for a LOCA.

3/4.6.1.6 CONTAINMENT STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY This limitation ensures that the structural integrity of the containment will be maintained comparable to the original design standards for the life of the facility.

Structural integrity is required to ensure that the containment will withstand the maximum pressure of 46.65 psig in the event of a LOCA.

The l

visual examination of the concrete, liner, and the Type A leakage test are sufficient to demonstrate this capability.

3/4.6.1.7 CONTAINMENT VENTILATION SYSTEM Use of the containment purge lines is restricted to two of the three following lines:

(1) a supply line, (2) an exhaust line of the purge system, and (3) the vacuum / pressure relief line to ensure that the SITE BOUNDARY dose guidelines of 10 CFR Part 100 would not be exceeded in the event of a loss-of-coolant accident during containment purging operations. The vacuum / pressure relief valves must be blocked to open no more than 50* because these valves have not yet been qualified to close under accident conditions.

Operation will be limited to 200 hours0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br /> during a calendar year.

The 200-hour limit shall not become effective until after initial criticality.

The total time the Containment Purge (vent) System isolation valves may be open during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 in a calendar, ear is a function of anticipated need and operating experience.
