~
- 1. INTRODUCTION On December 17, 1982, Generic Letter No. 82-33 (Reference 1) was issued by D. 6. Eisenhut, Director of the Division of Licensing, Nuclear l Reactor Regulation, to all licensees of operating reactors, applicants for l operating licenses and holders of construction permits. This letter !
included additional clarification regarding Regulatory Guide 1.97, Revision 2 (Reference 2), relating to the requirements for emergency response capability. These requirements have been published as Supplement
=_ No. 1 to NUREG-0737, 'TMI Action Plan Requirements" (Reference 3).
South Carolina Electric and Gas Company, the licensee for Virgil C. Sumner Nuclear Station, provided a response to the Regulatory Guide 1.97 portion of the generic letter on April 15, 1985 (Reference 4).
This report provides an evaluation of that submittal.

Subsequent to the issuance of the generic letter..the NRC held.
regional meetings in FeDruary and March 1983, tu answer licensee and !
applicant questions and concerns regarding the NRC policy on this subject.
At these, meeti~ngs, it was noted that the NRC review would only address r exceptions taken to Regulatory Guide 1.97. Where licensees or applicants l, explicitly state that instrument systems conform to the regulatory guide it !
was noted that no further staff review would be necessary. Therefore, this l 2 !

- 3. EVALUATION ,
The licensee provided a response to NRC Generic Letter 82-33 on April 15, 1985; This evaluation is based on that submittal. -
3.1 Adherence to Reculatory Guide 1.97 The licensee stated that compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.97 is indicated on Table 1-1 of their submittal, which summarizes each variable's compliance with the Regulatory Guide 1.97, Revision 3 (Reference 5),
provisions. That compliance report presents justification, modifications or ongoing evaluations that are provided as resolutions for any identified deviations. .Therefore, we conclude that the licensee has provided an
~~
explicit commitment on conformance to Regulatory Guide 1.97. Exceptions to and deviations from the regulatory guide are noted in Section 3.3.
3.2 Tvoe A Variables Regulatory Guide 1.97 does not specifically identify Type A variables, i.e., those variables that provide the information required to permit the -
control room operator to take specific manually controlled safety actions.
-r:The licensee classifies the following instrumentation as Type A:
I
- 1. Reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure (wide range)
- 2. RCS hot leg temperature (wide range)
- 3. RCS cold leg temperature (wide range) -
- 4. Steam generator level (wide range)
- 5. Steam generator level (narrow range)
- 6. Pressurizer level l
4
, an.-,- -- - , , - , - - - - , , - - , w,---
r
- 7. Containment pressure (normal range)
- 8. Containment pressure (extended range)
- 9. Main steamline pressure I
- 10. Refueling water storage tank level j
- 11. Containment water level
- 12. Emergency feedwater flow l
- 13. Primary co'ntainment radiation level .
- 14. Core exit temperature l l
- 15. RCS subcooling monitor.
i The above variables meet Category 1 reconnendations consistent with the requirements for Type A variables, except as noted in Section 3.3.
'T - 3.3 Exceptions to Reaulatory Guide 1.97 The licensee identified deviations and exceptions from Regulatory Guide 1.97. These are discussed in the following paragraphs.
3.3.1 Ranae Reautrement Deviation Thelicenseeindicatesthatthefollowingvariablesconformtothh range recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.97. However, the range provided for each variable is listed as 0 to 100 percent of span. Based on this
- information we are unable to determine that the range meets the regulatory guide recommendation. .
l t
5 I
l
- 1. Steam generator level (wide range)
(from tube sheet to separators)
~
- 2. Steam generator level (narrow range)
(no specific requirement) -
i
- 3. pressurizer level (bottom to top)
- 4. Refueling water storage tank level (top to bottom) :
The licensee should identify the range for each of these variables and identify and justify any deviation from the regulatory guide.
3.3.2 Control Rod Position Regulatory Guide 1.97 recommends Category 3 instrumentation with a range of full in or not full in for this variable. .
The licensee has not provided the information required by Section 6.2
. -r' of Supplement No. 1 to NUREG-0737 for this variable.
4 The licensee should provide the required information, identify any deviations from Regulatory Guide 1.97 and justify those deviations identified.
3.3.3 RCS Soluble Boron Concentration .,
Regulatory Guide T.97 recommends Category 3 instrumentation, with a range of 0,to 6000 ppe, for this variable.
The licensee has not provided the information required by Section 6.2 of Supplement No. 1 to NUREG-0737 for this variable.
l 6
l
i The licensee should provide the required information, identify any deviations from Regulatory Guide 1.97 and justify those deviations identified. . <
. 3.3.4 Core Exit Temperature The licensee has identified core exit temperature as a Type A variable. As such, it should meet Category 1 requirements. The licensee indicates that this instrumentation is Category 1 with the exception of recording.
l The NRC is reviewing the acceptability of this variable as part of their review of NUREE-0737, Item II.F.2. .
3.3.5 Coolant Inventory Regulatory Guide 1.97 recommends Category 1 instrumentation for this
- variable. The licensee has provided instrumentation that, except for redundancy, is Category 1.
The NRC is reviewing the acceptability of this variable as part of
~?'their review of NUREG-0737 Item II.F.2.
3.3.6 Dearees of Subcoolina
' The licensee has identified degrees of subcooling as a Type A variable. As such, it should meet Category 1 requirements. The licensee indicates that this instrumentation is Category 1 with the exception of redundancy.
The NRC is reviewing the acceptability of this variable as part of their review of NUREG-0737 Item II.F.2. ,
i l l

3.3.7 Containment Pressure Regulatory Guide 1.97 reconsnends instrumentation with a range of
-5 psig to 3 times design pressure for this variable. The licensee states -
that the instrumentation provided covers a range of 0 psig to 3 times design pressure. This range does not cover the subatmospheric pressure recommended by the regulatory guide.
The licensee should expand the range monitored by the existing instrumentation to cover the entire range recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.97 or provide justification for deviating from the recommended range.
3.3.8 Containment Isolation Valve Position From the information provided, we find that the licensee deviates from !
l a strict interpretation of the Category 1 redundancy recommendation. Only l the active valves have position indication (i.e., check valves have no . l position indication). Since redundant isolation valves are provided, we j find that redundant indication per valve is not intended by the regulatory guide. Position indication of check valves is specifically excluded by c Table 3 of Regulatory Guide 1.97. Therefore, we find that the 1 instrumentation for this variable is acceptable.
3.3.9 Radiation level in Circulatino Primary Coolant The licensee indicates that radiation level measurements to indicate fuel cladding failure are provided by the post-accident sampling system,
~
which is being reviewed by the NRC as part of their review of NUREG-0737, l Item II.B.3.
l Based'on the alternate instrumentation provided by the licensee, we l conclude that the instrumentation supplied for this variable is adequate I
and, therefore, acceptable.

3.3.29 Radiation Exposure Rate . ,
Regulatory Guide 1.97 recommends instrumentation with a range of
! 10 to 10 R/hr for this variable. The licensee has provided instrumentation with ranges from 10 to 10 R/hr. The licensee states that the existing area monitors must be augmented by high range portable survey instrumentation to meet the range requirements.
From a radiological standpoint, if the radiation levels reach or
. exceed the upper limit of the range, personnel would not be permitted into
~
the areas without additional monitoring with portable monitors. Based on i i
the alternate instrumentation used by the licensee for this variable, we find the proposed ranges for the radiation exposure rate monitors acceptable. .
3.3.30 Containment or Purae Effluent--Noble Gases
- Regulatory Guide 1.97 recommends a range of 10' to 10' pCi/cc P- for this variable. The licensee has provided a range that does not meet the recommended minimum sensitivity. The licensee provided a minimum range
~
of 2 x 10 pC1/cc.
' We find this small deviation from the range recommendation to be acceptable for this variable. The range provided will adequately monitor j the coeration of this system during accident and post-accident conditions.
Therefore, this is an acceptable deviation from Regulatory Guide 1.97.
