2 MR. LO NG ': I'm Steve Long. I'm a project manager 3 assigned to assist in licensing the Seabrook station. We 4 have a public meeting announced for today to discuss changes i

5 to the technical specifications for the station, and fcr that

\

C matter, to discuss any other technical itens that may need to l 7 be solved before a 5' percent license is issued. Calvin Moon 6 from the facilities operating branch is here. Why don't the i

9 j others introduce yourselves for the record?

15 MR. THOMAS: George Thomas, New Hampshire Yankee, t

16 MR. LONG: We distributed some corrected pages 3

17 from the technical specifications that were issued with the 18 fuel load and precriticality testing license. These are to 1

19 be diecussed today to see if the corrections are proper and l 10 i to discuss an3 other items that have come up in the interin..

l 21 l Warren, I think you are probably the lead on what 22 ,

itens are amise or correct. I would like you to go down iten. I i 23 by item as you see fit. -

! 24 MR. HALL: You want to go through each of these?

30513.0 EC" 3 1 MR. LONG: I'm going to give them to Rich. He has 2 the markups and knows what the grammatical changes th6t we 3 proposed are. You should have those there, right?

4 l MR. LONGr Yes; I have the marked pages and the 5 corrected pages.

6 MR. HALL: He was not in the office yesterday ar'  ;

7 I couldn't find them in his disk, but I knew you'had those. '

6 If you don't want to go through the table of contents we can 9 i skip over that and get right to the meat of it.

I 10 MR. BELANGER: The first item is the table 2.2.1, 1

11  ! " Change of the allowable value for a steam generator." That 12 is table 2.2.1, page 2-5, " Changing the allowable value for a k 13 l steam generator water level low load," and that's agreeable. ,

14 I No problem with that one.

15 l MR. HALL: That's changed to 20.6 percent, right?

16 MR. BELANGER: 20.5 percent.

17 i The next item is on page 3/4 3-11, and it is la l , adding note 7 to item 21, and that was per our meeting of l

19 2/27. That's fine.

20  ! The next one is table 3.3-4, page 3/4 3-24, change 21 . to item 1D, " allowable value" to 1865. That's fine per our 22 l phone conversations.

23 l Page 3/4 3-27, I'm not sure what the original on i

24  ; that was, the change is to item 7C, 21.6 and 20.5, and,that's 25 fine.

l. i 30513.0 KSW 4 1 Page 3/4 3-41, it is a change regarding the 2 triaxial peak accelerographs, rimilar-to what we have

, 3 requested. I believe that's acceptable; is that correct?

l 4 MR. VINCENT: Yes.

5 ,

MR. HALL: Yes, they wrote it right into the

! I 6 surveillance requirement rather than adding a footnote.

7 MR. LONG: That's correct. Do you want to 8 postpone the next two pages until Gus gets here?

9 MR. HALL: That's fine.

10 MR. BELANGER: Next page is 3/4 3-66, correcting, l'

1 11 l I believe, a couple of typos and some capitalization. That's i

12 fine.

13 Page 3/4 4-3, again changing to 21.6 percent.

14 That's fine per our letter of March 6, we agreed to that.

15 Page 3/4 4-5, same change. Fine.

16 4-6, same change.

17 Page 3/4 4-21 is adding a note to item F per our 16 l meeting. That's fine.

I 19 ! Page 3/4 4-29 is correcting a typographic error.

20 j E bal. That's good.

21 Page 3/4 6-3, corrects a typo. I believe it was l1 22 an item B inserting the word " test" between " type A" and 23 " fails."

4 24  ! MR. HALL: What page was that?

25 MR. BELANGER: 3/4 6-3.

K5W 5 1 This one I'm not sure of, 3/4 6-12. We dsn't know 2 what this one is.

I l 3 MR.'LONG: We're getting there, I think. It 4 wasn't made in the most recent set of changes either. That l l j 5 page is a mystery for the moment. Keep looking for a J 6 change.

7 MR. BELANGER: We'll just go on and come back to 8 that.

9 MR. LONG: I would rather not go on for a minute.

10 MR. BELANGER: It is correcting a typographic 1

11 error, changing " locked close" to " lock closed."

1 1

12 Page 3/4 6-14 is adding a note specifying the k- 13 operatability of requirements for mode 4. This was discussed 14 in the 2/27 meeting later on. This is fine.

15 Page 3/4 6-19, changing the words " equal 850 16 degrees F" to " equal to 8050 degrees F," correcting a 17 typographic error.

18 Page 3/4 6-21 is adding the note, a star to 1976 l'

19 to reference the note at the bottom of the page in item El.

20 ,

MR. MOON: The note was already there. The note 21 ! was not added.

22 ,

MR. BELANGER: That's correct. The note was 23 already there.

24 On page 3/4 6-22, item C adds a star to 1978 and 25 repeats the note from the previous page. That's fine.

. 30513.0 Kn: 6 1 3/4 7-4 is adding a note to item B2 as discussed 2 in the 2/27 meeting and reflected in our. March 6 letter.

3 MR. LONG: Is the value 500 PSIG correct?

4 MR. BELANGER: Yes. We originally submitted the 6 l

5 and changed it to 5 as a result of discussions in the 6 reeting.

7 Page 3/4 7-16, deleting the words -- I believe it 8 is deleting the words "at least" from item B. Yes, " flow l

9 rate of 1200 CFM plus or minus 10 percent" instead of "at 10 least 1200 CFM plus or minus 10 percent." We agreed to 11 that. That was requested by the resident inspector.

l

12 i The next page is 3/4 8-3. I'm not sure what this i (- 13 one is offhand.

! l l 14 MR. MOON: It is changing the word " tests" to l

15 " testing."

16 MR. BELANGER: Okay. That's a correction of a 17 typographic error in the note at the bottom of the page.

16 j That's acceptable.

I 19 i on page 3/4 --

i 20 MR. HALL: You only changed that in the first 21 j line; is that right?

22 MR. LONG: There were three changes that were like 23 that on three different pages, I believe.

24 MR. BELANGER: There's a change on the next page.

25 MR. HALL: This should read "all diesel generators ACE-FEDERAL REPORTERS, INC.

I 3 j MR. BELANGER: No, it is in the third line. Oh, I 4 see. I understand. It is okay. You are right. That's 5 okay. That's fine. i 6 MR. BELANGER: Okay, on page 8-4 is the same 7 change. It is still acceptable.

8 On page 3/4 8-5 is correcting the typo, adding a 9 colon at the end of the first line of item E. That's fine I

10 { there.

11 MR. LONG: The changes on page 3/4 8-21 are all 12 correcting typographical errors for 1E circuits. There were C 13 several places where we had IE circuits and it is not 14 something you specified. We found that.

15 MR. BELANGER: And that's on page 8-22 also?

16 MR. LONG: We made the same corrections on 8-22 as 17 well as something I think you had specified.

18 MR. BELANGER: On 8-23, we finished the title as t

19 something that we had originally picked out as a title. The f

20 l title was incomplete on 6-23 and you made the changes on i

21 : that.

22 ; MR. LONG: Correct. Let's look at 8-22 for a 23 second. Was there any change on there besides the class IE?

24 I believe not. Yes, we also made another typographical or to 25 hyphenate "non-class" in the title. Very important.

, 30513.0 i' ~ ': 6 1 MR. BELANGER: On page 3/4, 11-9, it is correcting 2 a typographic error in the reference, changing it from 3 specification 3.3.10 to 3.3.3.10, and that's fine. We like 1

4 l to see the errors corrected. We know where to go fior. th6t 5 one.

6 The next two pages in the package are the 7 organization charts, and these were discussed at the meeting 8 and provided in the letter.

9 l MR. LONG: You will be providing --

10 MR. BELANGER: We will provide camera-ready copies 11 of these, r

12 Next is page 6-5. It is correcting a typographic

^

13 error, the date was specified as 1/97 instead of 1971.

14 That's fine there.

15 MR. LONG: There's another change on that page 16 under item 6.2.4.

17 MR. BELANGER: Yes, also changing " shift 18 superintendent" to " control room commander" as specified in 19 the meeting. I guess that was per the changes you had sent l

i 20 l to us we had originally sent years ago, sent when we got the 21 i specifications -- that change was specified in the letter we

! 22 sent when we first received the tentative specifications with 23 the license.

24 On page 6-14 --

25 MR. LONG: I believe we inserted item F under ACE-FEDERAL REPORTERS, INC, li 202 347-3700 Nationwide Coserage 800-336-66*6

MP. BELANGER: Is this correct, Warren?

! t 5 l MR. HALL: Yes.

6 l MR. BELANGER: And were there any changes on the 7 next four pages, or is that just pushing the information E. along through the addition of item F on page 4-14?

I 9 ll MR. LONG: That's an interesting question. I 10 l believe it is just pushing along the information, but let me f

11 I make sure of that.

12 h MR. MOON: Have you proofread it or have you

(- 13 j people proofread it?

14 l MR. HALL: We just got them. I was going to say 15 I we will sit down and go over them verbally line by line as we i

16 , usually do. We just got them this afternoon from Steve.

I 17 i MR. LONG: I just got them from CRESS, and in fact i'

16 -

there are several pages in here, probably about 15 pages that 19 ,

have not been proofread by CRESS yet. They are being 20 i proofread now by CRESS.

21 >

MR. HALL: We will be doing this tonight and 22 probably tomorrow, and if we come up against anything, th6t i

23 l we can give you a phone call and let you know.

24 l MR. LONG: I believe all we have here is changes 25  ! in page numbers on 6-15 up through the end of the section.

4 30513.0 K5W 10 1 MR. BELANGER: We'll have to read this in-detail 2 to verify that that's all that happened, but --

3 MR. LONG: Because of the added material, we added 4 approximately a third of a page in there. These will be 5 entirely new tech specs with sequential page numbers as 6 opposed to adding a page A like we would do once they are 7 actually issued.

8 MR. HALL: Give us an opportunity tonight to 9l proofread the back end of the things and the others and we'll 10 1et'you know tomorrow if there's any problem, okay?

l 11 MR. LONG: Certainly.

! 12 MR. BELANGER: At first glance everything appears

(- 13 i

to be in order, but we'll look at it in detail.

I 14 MR. LONG: Okay. We deferred two pages on seismic 15 material, hoping to gain one of our staff members. Let's go

]

i 16 off the record while I find the staff member, 17 (Discussion off the record.)

18 l MR. LONG: We have just been joined by Gus 19 Giesekoch. We'll talk about the seismic issues that we 20 i deferred earlier.

21 l Gus, you gave me some page changes yesterday, and 22 j there was a brief conversation over the telephone where we 23 l discussed, or I discussed with the applicant whether or not 24 these page changes fit their understanding of the situation.

25 And I think we have some issues to resolve about the reg ACE-FEDERAL REPORTERS, INC.

, 202 347-3700 Nationwide Coserage 800 336-6 4 6

. 30513.0 KSW 11 1 guide that's been followed. ~ ,

i 2 These are the pages you gave me. I provided 3 copies to the company to discuss with you, and I want to cone 4 to an agreement as to what we're actually going to put in the ,

5 specifications. Basically what we have done that I think we l l

6 have agreed on so far is, for each of the seismic  !

7 instrumentation devices that are listed on pages 3/4 3-42 and i

8 43, we have listed the building location and the elevation.

9 In addition, we have made a distinction between seist.;ic

^

10 switches and seismic triggers.

11 Item 3 on each page was labeled triaxial seismic 12 switches, and we feel there is only one switch, and that was

~

13 labeled C in that list. We deleted the three other 14 indications of a switch, and we need to add a footnote that t 15 describes a triggering mechanism, and that's the topic of 16 discussion, one of the topics of discussion.

i 17 Gus, you had proposed some values, I think, 18 quickly on your review, and I think the discussion is really, l

i 19 ' first of all, what the setpoint should be for the trigger l

20 for, I guess it is going to be all three?

l 21 i MR. GIESEKOCH: Yes, all three, I A, B and C.

22 l MR. LONG: All three listed under 1. Correct.

23 Who is going to speak for the company about the value that he 24 thinks is appropriate?

25 MR. HALL: Okay. If you want to nake it easier, ACE. FEDERAL REPORTERS. INC.

3 202 347-3700 Nationwide Coverage 800-336-6646

l, 30513.C MER 12 l 1 can we go to page 43 first and hit that one?

I l 2 MR. LONG: Sure.

3 MR. HALL: Based on our conversations, Steve, we 4 looked at this and the information that Gus gave to you, and l

5 i we have come up with -- we don't have any problems in doing j j

6 what Gus has proposed on page 4-34. Our only concern on tnat 7 page, was that we do have two places of indication, and I

! E l will let Charlie explain to you the differences between the f two, Gus.

9 l 10 MR. GIESEKOCH: Okay, i

11 '

MR. HALL: Other than that, everything else on the l l

12 page is fine. We have added the elevations for each one of

(

' (' 13 the mountings in here, and the'only thing we would suggest is 14 that the first asterisk be "each accelerograph," et cetera, l

15 as you have shown, and that the second asterisk stay as 16 indicated, and that the pound sign next to the " monthly 17 channel check surveillance" remain with its associated note.

18 j I will let Charlie explain why.

19 f MR. VINCENT: The double asterisks after 20 " containment foundation seismic switch," that enunciation is f

21 l a D point from our computer indicating that you exceeded l

22  ;

OBE. The triaxial response-spectrum recorders also give you 23 a different D point from the computer, but it also provides i

24 you with light indication on what frequency and what axis has 25 exceeded OBE.

ACE-FEDERAL REPORTERS, INC.

202-347 3700 Nationwide Coserage 800-336 6 4 6

. 30513.0 K0W 13 1 So there are different places and locations that t

2 we felt we ought to keep them separate to indicate that, and 3 we're not looking at the control panel for seismic monitor, 4 ,

for example, for that enunciation. They are in the seismic i

5  ! monitoring panel. It is broken up into multiple -- the l

6 l response spectrum recorder has its panel part of it and the 7 seismic switch has its panel, and the accelerographs, 8 accelerometers have their section, okay, and different tag 9 numbers, actual tag numbers in the plant.

10 We don't refer to that panel as a unit. We refer 11 to that section. So the reismic switch indicates on one 12 panel, on one part of that panel, and the response spectrum k 13 recorders indicates on another part of that panel, so it 14 would be wrong to refer to it as a single entity because 15 that's not the way the plan is set up. It is tagged and 16 administrative 1y controlled differently. It is looked at as 17 different items.

18 MR. GIESEKOCH: I have no problem with it, but I 19 fail to understand, if all you put in there with reactor 20 control room indications, what does it tell you, how does it 21 tell you that there are different units? It doesn't. It 22 ,

enunciates in the control room. That's by requirement. The 23 reg guide tells you that you have to do that, so I have no 24 problem with it, but I fail to see the difference.

25 MR. VINCENT: There's a " channel check shall 14CE. FEDERAL REPORTERS, lNC.

.1;C: 14 1 consist of turning the test recess switch to verify 1 hat 2 i lanps illuminate." We have the D point. We don't have that J

3 function on the switch.

4 MR. GIESEKOCH: Your OBE doesn't have a lemp tnat 5 turns on?

6 MR. V T. N C E N T : Yes, it does. It has a D point, but 7 it doesn't have a lamp.

6 MR. GIESEKOCH: I don't understand this, but 9 l that's okay. Whatever you say. I have no problem with it.

10 MR. VINCENT: We have the enunciation. It is just i

11 a different device.

1 12 I MR. GIESEKOCH: So you want to keep -- why don't k 13 you put the pound mark behind the A, then, because to put it 14 behind the M is sort of confusing. Oh, because the 15 channeling check exists -- fine. No problem. Go ahead.

16 MR. LONG: Let me ask a question on that page.

17 The single asterisk note associated with the surveillance on 18 the number 1 items, the triaxial time history accelerographs 19 indicated that you wouldn't be doing a monthly check on the I

i 20  ;

seismic triggers, and because those are located in different 21 locations, I understand --

22 . MR. GIESEKOCH: You can't do it. There's no way 23 that you can check.

24 MR. LONG: I understand the company's statement 25 was that the asterisk says you will not be checking seismic  ;

30513.0 KC': 15 1 triggers. -

i 2 l MR. HALL: That was for the three up at the top,

! 3 l and it would have been because we were saying, correct me if 4 4 I'm wrong, it was being covered down here. It doesn't 5 matter. It goes away.

6 l MR. LONG: Gus proposed a note that says each 7 accelerograph has a triaxial trigger to activate the E

j recorder. I don't understand what an asterisk on a channel 9 ! check that has that note really does for us.

10 MR. VINCENT: Because we're taking out the 11 i triggers. The number 3, the triaxial seismic switches, the 12 l reg guide calls a switch different than a trigger, but in

( 13 reality the hardware is identical, just at'different l

14 I setpoints. When we take them out of number 3 and combine 15 them with number 1 we have to cover those surveillances. Up 16 I here we said except the triggers, because we covered them I

17 i under 3. Now that we canceled them out of 3 we cover them 16 ,under number 1.

19 MR. LONG: Okay.

20 MR. HALL: He is just deleting it off each monthly 21 l and putting it beside this.

22 MR. VINCENT: Which is perfectly okay. No problem 23 j with that at all.

24 f MR. HALL: As I understand it, on page 3/4 3-43, l' under the table 4.3-4, the first one, item 1, triaxial time 25 ACE FEDERAL REPORTERS, INC.

i 202-347-3700 Nationwide Coserage 800-336-6M6

l

. 30513.0 l KZW 16 1 history accelerographs, will have an asterisk by it,,and item 2 A will read "1-SM-XT-6700, free field control room east air l

3 2ntake" and parenthesis, " (11 feet 6 inches)."

4 Well, we'll provide all of the locations for each 5 one of these, and the asterick will have a single one at the 6 bottom of the page reading "each accelerograph has a triaxial 7 trigger to activate recorders," a double asterisk reading 8 "with reactor control room indications," then the pound sign, 9 which will remain as it is, " channel check to consist of I 10 ,

turning the test reset switch and verify all lamps 11 illuminated on 1-SM-XT-6700," and the locations and 12  ! elevations will be as I gave you over the phone?

13 MR. LONG: It would be helpful if someone made 14 l sure that I have made no transcription errors here.

I 15 MR. HALL: We have written this up and I will give 16 you a copy if you would like.

17 Back to page 3-42, on that we have taken all the 18 same changes that were on the first page and done those with 19 regards to adding the elevations and the buildings that they 1

20 ! are located in, et cetera, and just the way that we 21 discussed, Steve, and the only problems that we had were with l

22 ,

the two notes that Gus had proposed at the botton of the 23 page, and I will yield to Charlie and let him discuss why we 24 had a problem with those.

25 MR. VINCENT: The first was the seismic triggers.

.KSW 37 1 The number that we saw looked like .02 G. ,

2 MR. GIESEKOCH: Right.

3 ,

MR. VINCENT: We would prefer to stay at .01 G I

4 I because that's what's required in the surveillance 5 requirement, and also the ANSI standard 18.5 gives us .005 to 6 .02.

7 MR. GIESEKOCH: That's fine. Why I took this one 8 was in the FSAR you set between .005 to.02. You want to 9 change it to .01G period?

10 MR. VINCENT: Yes.

11 MR. GIESEKOCH: That's fine.

12 MR. VINCENT: That will agree with the first page 13 of the seismic section, says you go out and change plates and 14 do those, restore operability.

15 MR. GIESE"'CH: Where did you read that?

16 MR. VI NC Ets . : In the very first page.

17 MR. BELANGER: 3/4 3-41.

18 MR. VINCENT: That's how we know to do it. We get 19 ! the alarm and we know to do that.

20 MR. GIESEKOCH: Fine.

21  ! MR. VINCENT: Okay, we had a seismic switch 22 setpoint that we had -- the FSAR calls it out at .13 G, half 23 of SSE is .125. We'll go with .125, but we didn't think .005 24 of a G was material.

2 MR. VINCENT: I-think someone rounded it off o n'e 3 time when they wrote it down.

4 MR. GIESEKOCH: I just wanted to be consistent.

5 MR. VINCENT: That's where we're coming from.

6 MR. HALL: Would you have a problen if we left it 7 at .13 because we already have our setpoints there?

8 MR. GIESEKOCH: There's no difference.

9 MR. VINCENT: Then the last point was the 10 difference between vertical and horizontal OBE. We are a 10 11 l CFR 400 plant for our spectrum, and under the guidelines I

12 j vertical and horizontal OBE are the same above 3.5 hertz. .13 b 13 i

or .125 is synonymous to 33 hertz from reg guide 160. At 33

. 14 hertz they are the same. Until we get down to 3.5 hertz, you 15 don't get separation, and when you go and you don't get your 16 full 2/3 until you get to 2.5 hertz, and it is a ratio 17 between 3.5 to .25. It is not a full 2/3. Our 18 instrumentation, the seismic switch is from one to 30 hertz, i

19 i okay? A broad spectrun, and it has a resident frequency of 4 l

20 j hertz. A natural frequency of 4 hertz.

21 MR. GIESEKOCH: Ratio? Because I particularly i

22 talked to Kinemetrics and asked him, and he said the flat 23 l response is only between 1 and 10 hertz.

I 24 l MR. VINCENT: That's true. That's true. But --

25 MR. GIESEKOCH: So the flat response is only in 4

2 MR. VINCENT: You don't get the 2/3 until you get 3 to the 3.5 hertz.

l 6 Down to 3.5 hertz. The majority of the frequencies in the 1  !

t 7 to 10 hertz is still one-to-one. Number 7 is 4 hertz. You 8 are in here most of that switch. It is not -- this is just a 9 reg guide 16 curve, the spectrum taken in relationship to our 10 response spectrum. The easiest since that was what was 11 germane to our instruments. It shows you the general chape.

12 I'm saying number 7 sensor is 4 hertz. It would give you a

' k, 13 point. It is 3.5 where it breaks off, but you can see 3

14 l horizontal and vertical are the same for the majority of the l

15 frequency range that we're talking about.

16 j MR. GIESEKOCH: This acceleration here --

l 17 j MR. VINCENT: That's a G. This curve here, with 16 I .the plus signs, is the vertical, and here's the horizontal, i

19 but this is from 4 hertz down to 1 hertz. The high frequency

, 20 is here. It is just the opposite of your tripartite paper i

21 where it has the opposite shape, but it shows that you don't 22 ; get that until you get to our lower frequency and OBE .13 23 l isn't until you get to 33 hertz.

24 MR. GIESEKOCH: You are at least above I hertz 25 here?

3 MR. GIESEKOCH: Okay, so you are saying that even 4 though you are in the change of the 3.5, you just take the 5 one-to-one ratio?

6 MR. VINCENT: Yes, because the OBE value we're 7 sending is on the high end. If we were to take low end we 8 would pick a much higher OBE, .55. That wouldn't be 9 conservative.
