3.6 REACT *R BUILDING Applic-bility
, Applies to the operability of the reactor building.
l Objective To assure reactor building operability.
l Specification 3.6.1 The reactor building shall be operable whenever all three (3) of the l
following conditions exists a.
Reactor coolant pressure is 300 psig or greater.
b.
Reactor coolant temperature is 200*F ce greater.
c.-
Nuclear fuel is in the core.
With the reactor building inoperable, restore the reactor building to operable status within one hour or be in at least Hot Standby within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in Cold shutdown within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.
3.6.2 Reactor building integrity shall be maintained when the reactor coolant system is open to the reactor building atmosphere and the requirements for a refueling shutdown are not met.
The provisions of Specification 3.0.3 are not applicable.
3.6.3 Positive reactivity insertions which would result in the reactor being suberitical by less than 1% Ak/k shall not be made by control rod motion or boron dilution whenever reactor building integrity is not in force. The provisions of Specification 3.0.3 are not applicable.
3.6.4 The reactor shall not be taken critical or remain critical if the reactor building internal pressure exceeds 3.0 psig or a vacuum of 5,5 inches Hg.
With the reactor critical, restore the containment pressure to within its limits within one hour or be in at least Hot Standby within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in Cold Shutdown within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.
~
3.6.5 Prior to criticality following a refueling shutdown, a check shall be made to confirm that all nanual. reactor building isolation valves which should be closed are closed and locked, as required.
.The provisions of Specification 3.0.3 are not applicable.

f Amendment No. 64, 199 54 1
I
y
- s' 3.6.6
. If, while tha racetor is critical, a reactor building isolation-valve is determined to be inoperable in a position other than the I
closed position, the other reactor building isolation valve (except for check valves) in the line shall be tested to insure operability.
If the inoperable valve is not restored within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />, the reactor shall be brought to the cold shutdown condition within an additional 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or the operable valve will be closed.
Bases Included in reactor building operability are both the reactor building integrity as defined in Specification 1.7 and the reactor building structural integrity.
Structural integrity limitations as described in the ANO Containment Inspection Program ensure the reactor building will be maintained comparable to the original design standards.throughout the facility life span.
Visual and other required examinations of tendons, anchorages and surfaces are performed periodically in accordance with station procedures. These procedures embody applicable requirements of the 1992 Edition with the 1992 Addenda of Section XI, Subsection IWL of the ASME Boiler and Pressure vessel Code as set forth in j
Au crx 50.55a (g) (6) (ii) (B). Any degradations exceeding the Containment Inspection Program acceptance criteria during inspection surveillances will be reviewed under an engineering evaluation within 60 days.of the completion of the inspection to determine what impact the degradation has on overall containment operability, if any.
The reactor coolant system conditions of cold shutdown assure that no steam will be formed and hence there will be no pressure buildup in the reactor building if the reactor coolant system ruptures.
The selected shutdown conditions are based on the type of activities that are being carried out and will preclude criticality in any occurrence.
The reactor building is designed for an internal pressure of 59 psig and an external pressure 3.0 psi greater than the internal pressure. The design external pressure of'3.0 psi corresponds to a margin of 0.5 psi above the differential pressure that could be developed if the building is sealed with an internal temperature of Il0*F and the building is subsequently cooled to an internal temperature of less than 50*F.
When reactor building integrity is established, the lindts of 10 CFR 100 will not be exceeded should the maximum hypothetical accident occur.
REFERENCE FSAR, Section 5.
l' Amendment No. 64, 199 55
"g Bases (1)
The reactor building is designed for an internal pressure of 59 psig and a I
steam-air udxture temperature of 285'F.
l l
The peak calculated reactor building pressure for the design basis loss of coolant accident, Pa, is 54 psig. The maximum allowable reactor building leakage rate, La, shall be 0.20% of containment air weight per day at Pa.
The reactor building will be periodically leakage tested in accordance with the Reactor Building Leakage Rate Testing Program. These periodic testing requirements verify the reactor building leakage rate does not exceed the l
assumptions used in the safety analysis. At s 1.0 La the offsite dose i
consequences are bounded by the assumptions of the safety analysis.
During I
the first unit startup following testing in accordance with this program, the leakage rate acceptance criteria are s 0.60 La for the combined Type B and Type C leakage, and s 0.75 La for overall Type A leakage. At all other times between required leakage tests, the acceptance criteria is based on an overall Type A leakage limit of s 1.0 L.

The results of the engineering evaluation shall be reported to the NRC within an additional 30 days of the time the evaluation is completed.
The report shall include the cause of the condition that does not meet the acceptance criteria, the applicability of the conditions.to the other unit, the acceptability of the concrete containment without repair of the item, whether or not repair or replacement is required and, if required, the extent, method, and completion date of necessary repairs, and the extent, nature, and frequency of additional examinations, i
