Description:
Remove the Tecluncal Specification requirement < for ESF features (e.g., pnmary/seconda:y con +=h' stan6y gas treatment, isolation capability) to be OPERABLE aner sufBeient radioactive decay has occurred to ensure off-site doses remain below the SRP limits (a small baction of 10CFR100). Fuel. movement could still proceed prior to the amount of decay occurnas but only with the appropriate ESF systems OPERABLE-Amanciated with this change is the deletion of OPERABILITY requirement < during CORE ALTERATIONS for ESP mitigation features. This change will allow plants the flexibility to move personnel and equipment and perform work which would affect containment OPERABILITY during the handling ofirradiatad fuel.
}nstireneinn-Following reactor shutdown, decay of the short-lived fission products greatly reduces the fission product inventory present in irradiated fuel. The proposed changes are based on performing analyses assunung a longer decay period to take advantage of the reduced radionuclide inventory available for release in the event of a fuel handling accident Following sufBeient decay occurnng, the primary success path for mitigating the fuel handling accident no longer includes the functioning of the active containment systems Therefore, the OPERABILITY requirements of the Technical Specifications are modified to reflect that water level and decay time are the pnmary success path for mitigating a fuel handling accident (which meets Criterion 3).
To support this change in requirements during the handling ofirradiated fuel, the OPERABILITY requirements during CORE ALTERATIONS for ESF mitigation features are deleted. The accidents postulated to occur during core alterations, in addition to fbel handling accidents, are: madvertent criticality (due to a control rod removal error or continuous control rod withdrawal error during refhehng or boron dilution) and the inadvertent loading of, and subsequent operation with, a fbel assembly in an improper locanon. These esents are not postulated to result in fbel cladding integrity damage. . Since the only accident postulated to occur during CORE ALTERATIONS that results in a significant radioactive release is the fbel handhng accident, the proposed Technical Specification requirements omitting CORE ALTERATIONSisjustified.
Also, the Technical Specifications only allow the handling ofirradiated fuel in the reactor vessel when the water level J in the reactor casity is at the high water level. Therefore, the proposed changes only affect contamment requirements during periods of relatively low shutdown risk during refueling outages. Therefore, the proposed changes do not .
significantly increase the shutdowti risk. I Industry

i REVIEWER'S NOTE
{
. The addition of the term "recently" associated with handling irradiated fuel in all of the containment function Technical Specification requirements is only applicabis to those licensees who have demonstrated by analysis that after sufficient radioactive
]
decay has occurred, off-site doses resulting from a fuel handling accident remain below the Standard Review Plan limits (well within 10CFR100).
Additionally, licensees adding the term "recently" must make the following commitment which is consistent with draft NUMARC g3-01, Revision 3, Section 11.2.6 " Safety Assessment for Removal of Equipment from Service During Shutdown Conditions" , subheading " Containment - Primary (PWR)/ Secondary (BWR)",
[
"The following guidelines are included in the assessment of systems removed from
- service during movement of irradiated fuel:
- During fuel handling / core alterations, ventilation system and radiation monitor availability (as defined in NUMARC 91-06) should be assessed, with respect to filtration and monitoring of releases from the fuel. Followin0 shutdown, radioactivity in the fuel decays away fairly rapidly. The basis of the Technical Specification operability amendment is the reduction in doses due to such decay. The goal of maintaining ventilation system and radiation monitor availability is to reduce doses even further below that provided by the natural decay.
- A single normal or contingency method to promptly close primary or secondary containment penetrations should be developed. Such prompt methods need not completely block the penetration or be capable of resisting pressure.
The purpose of the " prompt methods" mentioned above are to enable ventilation systems to draw the release from a postulated fuel handling accident in the proper direction such that it can be treated and monitored." 4 Insert N , l l

(continued) _
as follows: _
APPLICABILITY The RB purge isolation-high radiation shall be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. Outside of these MODES, the ur e ura.k h isolation must be OPERABLE'whenever M L ;L;;"/T! C movement ohirradiated fuel assemblies within the RB is taking piace. These conditions are those under which the potential for fuel damage, and thus radiation release, is pg the greatest. While in MODES 5 and 6, without fuel handling in progress, the Purge Valve Isolation System does not need g to be OPERABLE because the potential for a radioactive release is minimized and operator action is sufficient to ensure post accident offsite doses are maintained within the limits of 10 CFR 100. The need to use the purge valves in MODES 5 and 6 is in preparation for entry. This capability is required to minimize doses for personnel entering the building and is independent of the automatic isolation capability.
ACTIONS A.1 With one channel inoperable in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4, the RB purge valves must be placed and maintained in the closed position. This action accomplishes the safety function of the RB Purge Isolation-High Radiation Function. The 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> Completion Time is reasonable considering the time required to isolate the penetration and the relative importance of maintaining containment OPERABILITY during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4.
B.1 and B.2 If Required Action A.1 cannot be met within the required Completion Time, the unit must be brought to a MODE in wiich the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the unit must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasona' ole, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.

auring movement of* irradiated fuel assemoties within the_RB, the RB purge valves must be closed, or- nu u n; = #
movement ofW rradiated fuel assemblies within t1e RB must be suspended. Required Action C.1 accomplishes the function of the high radiation channel. Required Action C.2.1 and Required Action C.2.2 place the unit in a configuration in which purge isolation on high radiation is not required.
The Completion Time of "Immediately" is consistent with the urgency associated with the loss of RB isolation capability under conditions in which the fuel handling accidents are !
possible and the high radiation function provides the nly I automatic actions to mitigate radiation release. fin 3A d-SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.15.1 REQUIREMENTS SR 3.3.15.1 is the performance of the CHANNEL CHECK for the RB purge isolation-high radiation instrumentation once
. every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> to ensure that a gross failure of instrumentation has not occurred. A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parmneter indicated on one ;
channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is i based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value.
Significant deviations between two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the I channels or of something even more serious. Performance of l the CHANNEL CHECK helps to ensure that the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION. The high radiation instrumentation should be compared to similar unit instruments located throughout the i unit. If the radiation monitor uses keep alive sources or check sources OPERABLE from the control room, the CHANNEL CHECK should also note the detector's response to these sources.
Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, (continued)

ACTIONS Ad Condition A applies to failure of the Control Room Isolation-High Radiation Function in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4.
With one channel of Control Room Isolation-High Radiation inoperable, the CREVS must be placed in a condition that does not require the isolation to occur. To ensure that the i ventilation system has been placed in a state equivalent to that which occurs after the high radiation isolation has occurred, one OPERABLE train of the CREVS is placed in the emergency recirculation mode of operation. Reactor operation can continue indefinitely in this state. The 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> Completion Time is a sufficient amount of time in which to take the Required Action.
The Required Action is modified by a Note, which requires the CREVS be placed in the toxic gas protection mode if automatic transfer to the toxic gas protection mode is inoperable, since the pressurization mode would increase vulnerability to toxic gas releases.

REQUIREMENTS radioactive material from containment following a DBA. This l SR ensures that each automatic containment isolation valve '
will actuate to its isolation position on a containment isolation signal. This SR is not required for valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position under administrative controls. The (18) month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the l conditions that apply during a plant outage and the I
potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass this Surveillance when performed at the [18] month Frequency.
Therefore, the Frequency was concluded to be acceptable from a reliability standpoint.
l SR 3.6.3.8 l Reviewer's Note: This SR is only required for those units I l with resilient seal purge valves allowed to be open during l l [ MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4) and having blocking devices on the i l _
valves that are not permanently installed. ,_
l Verifying that each [48) inch containment purge valve is blocked to restrict opening to :s; [50%) is required to ensure that the valves can close under DBA conditions within the times assumed in the analyses of References 3 and 4. If a l LOCA occurs, the purge valves must close to maintain containment leakage within the values assumed in the accident analys!s. At other times when purge valves are l
gyQ required to be ch')able of closing (e.g., during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies), pressurization concerns are not l present, thus the purge valves can be fully o>en. The

FSPVS B 3.7.13 B 3.7 PLANT SYSTEMS i S TF-GIJM l B 3.7.13 Fuel Storage Pool Ventilation System (FSPVS)
BASES BACKGp:0UND- The FSPVS provides negative pressure in the fuel storage area, and filters airborne radioactive ) articulates from the area of the fuel pool following a fuel sandling accident.
The FSPVS consists of portions of the normal Fuel Handling i Area Ventilation System (FHAVS), the station Emergency Ventilation System (EVS), ductwork bypasses, and dampers.
The portion of the normal FHAVS used by the FSPVS consists of ducting between the spent fuel pool and the normal FHAVS '
exhaust fans or dampers, and redundant radiation detectors 4 installed close to the suction end of the FHAVS exhaust fan l ducting. The portion of the EVS used by the FSPVS consists of two independent, redundant trains. Each train consists I of a heater, profilter, or high efficiency particulate air I (HEPA) filter, activated charcoal adsorber section for !
removal of gaseous activity (principally iodines), and fan.
Ductwork, valves or dampers, and instrumentation also form part of the system. Two isolation valves are installed in
, series in the ductwork between the FHAVS and the EVS to 64A i
provide isolation of the EVS from the FHAVS on an Engineered Safety Feature actuation signal. These valves are opened (6 i neior to fuel handlina operations, The EVS is the subject of LC0 3.7.12, " Emergency Vent 1Fation System (EVS)," and is fully described in the FSAR, Section [6.2.3), Reference 12.
A ductwork bypass with redundant dampers connects the FHAVS to the EVS.
During normal operation, the exhaust from the fuel handling area is passed through the FHAVS exhaust filter and is -
discharged through the station vent stack. In the event of a fuel handling accident, the radiation detectors (one per EVS train), located at the suction of the FHAVS exhaust fan ducting, send signals to isolate the FHAVS supply and i exhaust fans and ductwork, open the redundant dampers in the bypass ductwork, and start the EVS fans. The EVS fans pull the air from the fuel handling area, creating a negative pressure, and discharge the filtered air to the station vent.
The FHAVS is discussed in the FSAR, Sections (6.2.3),

i BACKGROUND because it may be used for normal as well as post accident, l (continued) atmospheric cleanup functions.
APPLICABLE The FSPVS design basis is established by the consequences of ;
SAFETY ANALYSES the limiting Design Basis Accident (DBA), which is a fuel l E% 4 handling accidenPe. The analysis of the fuel handling acchi?nt, given 7 n Reference 3, assumes that a certain
> number of fuel rods in an assembly are damaged. The DBA analysis of _the fuel handling accident assumes 4 that only one train of the FSPV5 is iudcT,ional cue IE a single failure that disables the other train. The accident analysis l accounts for the reduction in airborne radioactive material provided by the remaining one train of this filtration i system. These assumptions and the analysis follow the l guidance provided in Regulatory Guide 1.25 (Ref. 4).
The FSPVS satisfies Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement.
LCO [Two] independent and redundant trains of the FSPVS are l required to be OPERABLE to ensure that at least one is available, assuming a single failure that disables the other train coincident with a loss of offsite power. Total system failure could result in the atmospheric release from the fuel handling area exceeding 10 CFR 100 (Ref. 5) 1 s in the event of a fuel handling accidenth %
t8-The FSPVS is considered OPERABLE when the individual components necessary to control operator exposure in the fuel handling building are OPERABLE in both trains. An FSPVS train is considered OPERABLE when its associated:
- 1. Fan is OPERABLE;
- 2. HEPA filter and charcoal adsorber are not excessively restricting flow, and are capable of performing their filtration functions; and 3.- [ Heater, demister,] ductwork, valves, and dampers are OPERABLE, and air circulation can be maintained.

APPLICABILITY ~ In [ MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4,] the FSPVS is required to be OPERABLE to provide fission product removal associated with ECCS leaks due to a loss of coolant accident (refer to LCO 3.7.12) for units that use this systou as part of their EVSs.
{0tr.e_Mh-During movement o rradiated fuel assemblies in the fuel handling area, the FSPVS is always required to be OPERABLE to mitigate the consequences of a fuel handling accident.
In MODES 5 and 6, the FSPVS is not required to be OPERABLE
_ since the ECCS is not required to be OPERABLE. _
ACTIONS Ad ;
i With one FSPVS train inoperable, action must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 7 days. During this time period, the remaining OPERABLE train is adequate to perform the FSPVS function. However, the overall reliability is reduced because a single failure in the OPERABLE FSPVS train could result in a loss of FSPVS functioning. The 7 day 4 Completion Time is based on the risk from an event occurring requiring the inoperable FSPVS train, and ability of the remaining FSPVS train to provide the required protection. 1 B.1 and B.2 In MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4, when Required Action A.1 cannot be completed within the associated Completion Time, or when both FSPVS trains are inoperable, the unit must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply.

t O "
In general, when the unit is shut down, the Technical
- Specifications requirements ensure that the unit has the capability to mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents. However, assuming a single failure and concurrent loss of all offsite or all onsite power is not required. The rationale for this is based on the fact that many Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) that are analyzed in MODES 1, 2, 3 and 4 have no specific analyses in MODES 5 and 6. Worst-case bounding events are dcemed not credible in MODES 5 and 6 because the energy contained within the reactor pressure boundary, reactor coolant temperature and
. pressure, and the corresponding stresses result in the probabilities of occurrence being significantly reduced or eliminated, and in minimal consequences. These deviations from DBA analysis assumptions and design requirements during shutdown conditions are allowed by the LCO for required systems.
During MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 various deviations from the analysis assumptions and design requirements are allowed within the Required Actions. This allowance is in (continued)

Qualified offsite circuits are those that are described in the FSAR and are part of the licensing basis for the unit.
Offsite circuit #1 consists of Safeguards Transformer B, which is supplied from Switchyard Bus B, and is fed through breaker 52-3 powering the ESF transformer XNB01, which, in turn, powers the #1 ESF bus through its normal feeder breaker. The second offsite circuit consists of the Startup Transformer, which is normally fed from the Switchyard Bus A, and is fed through breaker PA 0201 powering the ESF transformer, which, in turn, powers the #2 ESF bus through
_ its normal feeder breaker. _
The DG must be capable of starting, accelerating to rated speed and voltage, and connecting to its respective ESF bus on detection of bus undervoltage. This sequence must be l accomplished within (10) seconds. The DG must be capable of accepting required loads within the assumed loading sequence intervals, and must continue to operate until offsite power can be restored to the ESF buses. These capabilities are required to be met from a variety of initial conditions such as DG in standby with the engine hot and DG in standby at ambient conditions.
Proper sequencing of loads, including tripping of non-essential loads, is a required function for DG OPERABILITY.
In addition, proper sequencer operation is an integral part of offsite circuit OPERABILITY since its inoperability impacts on the ability to start and maintain energized loads

During 6 D . tn', movement o fuel assemblies within containment 5 G'c;.dnu m- r := m....s,y,a release of fission product radioactivity within containment will be restricted from escaping to the environment when the LCO requirements are met. In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, this is accomplished by maintaining containment OPERABLE as described in LCO 3.6.1, " Containment." In MODE 6, the potential for containment pressurization as a result of an accident is not likely; therefore, requirements to isolate the containment from the outside atmosphere can be less 1 stringent. The LC0 requirements are referred to as
" containment closure" rather than " containment OPERABILITY."
Containment closure means that all potential escape paths are closed or capable of being closed. Since there is no potential for containment pressurization, the Appendix J 1eakage criteria and tests are not required.
The containment serves to contain fission product radioactivity that may be released from the reactor core following an accident, such that offsite radiation exposures are maintained well within the requirements of 10 CFR 100.
Additionally, the containment provides radiation shielding from the fission products that may be present in the containment atmosphere following accident conditions.

The containment air locks, which are also part of the containment pressure boundary, provide a means for personnel access during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 unit operation in accordance with LC0 3.6.2, " Containment Air Locks." Each air lock has a door at both ends. The doors are normally interlocked to prevent simultaneous opening when containment OPERABILITY is required. During periods of unit shutdown (continued)

The Containment Purge and Exhaust System includes two subsystems. The normal subsystem includes a (42) inch purge penetration and a (42) inch exhaust penetration. The second subsystem, or minipurge system, includes an (8) inch purge penetration and an (8) inch exhaust penetration. During MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the two valves in each of the normal purge and exhaust penetrations are secured in the closed position. The two valves in each of the two minipurge penetrations can be opened intermittently but are closed automatically by the Engineered Safety Feature Actuation !
System (ESFAS). Neither of the subsystems is subject to a Specification in MODE 5.
In MODE 6, large air exchangers are necessary to conduct refueling operations. The normal (42) inch purge system is used for this purpose, and all four valves are closed on a reactor building (RB) high radiation signal in accordance with LC0 3.3.15, " Reactor Building (RB) Purge Isolation-High Radiation.
The other containment penetrations that provide direct access from containment atmosphere to outside atmosphere must be isolated on at least one side. Isolation may be achieved by an OPERABLE automatic isolation valve or by a manual isolation valve, blind flange, or equivalent.
Equivalent isolation methods must be approved and may include use of a material that can provide a temporary, atmospheric pressure ventilation barrier for the other containment penetrations during fuel movements f.1).

During refueling, this maintains sufficient i water level in the containment, the refueling canal, the fuel transfer canal, the refueling cavity, and the spent fuel pool. Sufficient water is necessary to retain iodine fission product activity in the water in the event of a fuel handling accident (Refs. I and 2). Sufficient iodine l activity would be retained to limit offsite doses from the accident within 10 CFR 100 limits, as provided by the guidance of Reference 3.
1 APPLICABLE Duri(ng a.QRfidif"AT'05 n 68mmovement of irradiated SAFETY ANALYSES fuel assemDiias, the water level in the refueling canal and the refueling cavity is an initial condition design parameter in the analysis of the fuel handling accident in containment postulated by Regulatory Guide 1.25 (Ref.1). A minimum water level of 23 ft (Regulatory Position C.I.c of Ref.1) allows a decontamination factor of 100 (Regulatory Position C.I.g of Ref. 1) to be used in the accident analysis for iodine. This relates to the assumption that 99% of the total iodine released from the pellet to cladding gap of all the dropped fuel assembly rods is retained by the refueling cavity water. The fuel pellet to cladding gap is assumed to contain 10% of the total fuel rod iodine inventory (Ref.1).
The fuel handling accident analysis inside containment is described in Reference 2. With a = h "= ter level of 23 ft, and a minimum decay time prior to fuel handling, the analysis and programs test (of]2] hour that aemonstrate the iodine release due to a postulated fuel handling accident is adequately captured by the water, and offsite doses are maintained within allowable limits (Ref. 3).

REVIEWER'S NOTE The addition of the term "recently" associated with handling irradiated fuel in all of l the containment function Technical Specification requirements is only applicable to those licensees who have demonstrated by analysis that after sufficient radioactive i
decay has occurred, off-site deaes resulting from a fuel handling accident remain
- below the Standard Review Plan limits (well within 10CFR100).
Additionally, licensees adding the term "recently" must make the following commitment which is consistent with draft NUMARC 93-01, Revision 3, Section l 11.2.6 " Safety Assessment for Removal of Equipment from Service During l
Shutdown Conditions" , subheading " Containment - Primary (PWR)/ Secondary (BWR)".
"The following guidelines are included in the assessment of systems removed from service during movement of irradiated fuel:
- During fuel handling / core alterations, ventilation system and radiation monitor availability (as defined in NUMARC 91-06) should be assessed, with respect to filtration and monitoring of releases froin the fuel. Following shutdown, radioactivity in the fuel decays away fairiy rapidly. The basis of the Technical Specification operability amendment is the reduction in doses due to such decay. The goal of maintaining ventilation system and radiation monitor availability is to reduce doses even further below that provided by the natural l
I decay.
- A single normal or contingency method to promptly close primary or secondary containment penetrations should be developed. Such prompt methods need ,
not completely block the penetration or be capable of resisting pressure. I The purpose of the " prompt methods" mentioned above are to enable ventilation systems to draw the release from a postulated fuel handling accident in the proper direction such that it can be treated and monitored."

l BACKGROUND and the Shutdown Purge System. These systems are described (continued) in the Bases for LCO 3.6.3, " Containment Isolation Valves."
APPLICABLE Tha safety analyses assume that the containment remains SAFETY ANALYSES' intact with penetrations unnecessary for core cooling isolated early in the event, within approximately 60 seconds. The isolation of the purge valves has not been analyzed mechanistically in the dose calculations, although its rapid isolation is assumed. The containment purge and exhaust isolation radiation monitors act as backup to the SI signal to ensure closing of the purge and exhaust valves.
They are also the primary means for automatically isolating containment in the event of a fuel handling accident during shutdown. Containtrent isolation in turn ensures meeting the containment leakage rate assumptions of the safety analyses, _
and ensures that the calculated accidental offsite t%3A radiological doses are below 10 CFR 100 (Ref.1) limits.4 g The containment purge and exhaust isolation instrumentation satisfies Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement.
LCO The LC0 requirements ensure that the instrumentation necessary to initiate Containment Purge and Exhaust Isolation, listed in Table 3.3.6-1, is OPERABLE.
- 1. Manual Initiation The LCO requires two channels OPERABLE. The operator can initiate Containment Purge Isolation at any time by using either of two switches in the control room.
Either switch actuates both trains. This action will cause actuation of all components in the same manner as any of the automatic actuation signals.
The LCO for Manual Initiation ensures the proper amount of redundancy is maintained in the manual actuation circuitry to ensure the operator has manual initiation capability.
Each channel consists of one push button and the interconnecting wiring to the actuation logic cabinet.

r containment. Inerefori~~the conta'inment purge and exhtust isolation instrumentation must be OPERABLE in these MODES.
While in MODES 5 and 6 without fuel handling in progress, the containment purge and exhaust isolation instrumentation need not be OPERABLE since the potential for radioactive releases is minimized and operator action is sufficient to ensure post accident offsite doses are maintained within the limits of Reference 1.
ACTIONS The most common cause of channel inoperability is outright l failure or drift of the bistable or process module sufficient to exceed the tolerance allowed by unit specific l calibration procedures. Typically, the drift is found to be l small and results in a delay of actuation rather than a ,
total loss of function. This determination is generally '
made during the performance of a COT, when the process instrumentation is set up for adjustment to bring it within specification. If the Trip Setpoint is less conservative than the tolerance specified by the calibration procedure, the channel must be declared inoperable immediately and the appropriate Condition entered.

A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. A CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; thus, it is key to verifying the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.
Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including indication and readability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indtication that the sensor or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit.

B 3.3 INSTRUMENTATION 8 3.3.7 Control Room Emergency Filtration System (CREFS) Actuation j Instrumentation BASES BACKGROUND The CREFS provides an enclosed control room environment from l which the unit can be operated following an uncontrolled release of radioactivity. During normal operation, the Auxiliary Building Ventilation System provides control room i ventilation. Upon receipt of an actuation signal, the CREFS initiates filtered ventilation and pressurization of the ;
control room. This system is described in the Bases for LCO 3.7.10, " Control Room Emergency Filtration System."
.The actuation instrumentation consists of redundant radiation monitors in the air intakes and control room area.
A high radiation signal from any of these detectors will initiate both trains of the CREFS. The control room operator can also initiate CREFS trains by manual switches ,
in the control room. The CREFS is also actuated by a safety j injection (SI) signal. The SI Function is discussed in I LCO 3.3.2, " Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System i' (ESFAS) Instrumentation."
APPLICABLE The control room must be kept habitable for the operators i SAFETY ANALYSES stationed there during accident recovery and post accident l l
operations.
The CREFS acts to terminate the supply of unfiltered outside air to the control room, initiate filtration, and pressurize the control room. These actions are necessary to ensure the control room is kept habitable for the operators stationed there during accident recovery and post accident operations by minimizing the radiation exposure of control room personnel.
In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the radiation monitor actuation of the CREFS is a backup for the SI signal actuation. This ensures initiation of the CREFS during a loss of coolant accident or steam generator tube rupture.

A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. A CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; thus, it is key to verifying the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

FBACS Actuation Instrumentation B 3.3.8 B 3.3 INSTRUMENTATION B 3.3.8 Fuel Building Air Cleanup System (FBACS) Actuation Instrumentation BASES
' C BACKGROUND The FBACS ensures that radioactive materials in the fuge __
building atmosphere following a fuel handling accident or a loss of coolint accident (LOCA) are filtered and adsorbed prior to exhausting to the environment. The system is described in the Bases for LC0 3.7.13, " Fuel Building Air Cleanup System." The system initiates filtered ventilation of the fuel building automatically following receipt of a high radiation signal (gaseous or particulate) or a safety injection (SI) signal. Initiation may also be performed manually as needed from the main control room.
High gaseous and particulate radiation, each monitored by either of two monitors, provides FBACS initiation. Each FBACS train is initiated by high radiation detected by a channel dedicated to that train. There are a total of two channels, one for each train. Each channel contains a gaseous and particulate monitor. High radiation detected by any monitor or an SI' signal from the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) initiates fuel building isolation and starts the FBACS. These actions function to prevent exfiltration of contaminated air by initiating filtered ventilation, which imposes a negative pressure on the fuel building. Since the radiation monitors include an air sampling system, various components such as sample line valves, sample line heaters, sample pumps, and filter motors are required to support monitor OPERABILITY.
APPLICABLE The FBACS ensures that radioactive materials in the fu (b&
C, SAFETY ANALYSES building atmosphere following a fuel handling accident ra' LOCA are filtered and adsorbed prior to being exhausted to the environment. This action reduces the radioactive
- content in the fuel building exhaust following a LOCA or fuel handling accident so that offsite doses remain within the limits specified in 10 CFR 100 (Ref.1).
The FBACS actuation instrumentation satisfies Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement.

Suspension of these activities does not preclude completion of actions to establish a safe conservative condition.
These actions minimize the probability or the occurrence of postulated events. It is further required to immediately initiate action to restore the required AC sources and to continue this action until restoration is accomplished in order to provide the necessary AC power to the unit safety j systems.
The completion Time of immediately is consistent with the required times for actions requiring prompt attention,. The restoration of the required AC electrical power sources should be completed as quickly as possible in order to minimize the time during which the unit safety systems may be without sufficient power.
Pursuant to LCO 3.0.6, the Distribution System's ACTIONS would not be entered even if all AC sources to it are inoperable, resulting in de-energization. Therefore, the Required Actions of Condition A are modified by a Note to indicate that when Condition A is entered with no AC power to any required ESF bus, the ACTIONS for LCO 3.8.10 must be immediately entered. This Note allows Condition A to provide requirements for the loss of the offsite circuit, whether or not a train is de-energized. LCO 3.8.10 would provide the app'ropriate restrictions for the situation involving a de-energized train.

Additionally, licensees adding the term "recently" mest make the following j commitment which is consistent with draft NUMARC 93-01, Revision 3 Sectica !
I 11.2.6 " Safety Assessment for Removal of Equipment from Service During Shutdown Conditions" , subheading " Containment - Primary (PWR)/ Secondary (BWR)".
l "The following guidelines are included in the assessment of systems removed from service during movement of irradiated fuel: ,
- During fuel handling / core alterations, ventilation system and radiation monitor availablihy (as defined in NUMARC 91-06) should be assessed, with respect to filtration and monitoring of releases from the fuel. Following shutdown, radioactivity in the fuel decays away fairly rapidly. The basis of the Technical Specification operability amendment is the reduction in doses due to such !
decay. The goal of maintaining ventilation system and radiation monitor {
availability is to reduce doses even further below that provided by the natural j decay. 1
- A single normal or contingency method to promptly close primary or secondary )
containment penetrations should be developed. Such prompt methods need not completely block the penetration or be capab!e of resisting pressure.
The purpose of the " prompt methods" mentioned above are to enable ventilation systems to draw the release from a postulated fuel handling accident in the proper i l
direction such that it can be treated and monitored."

The Bases for the LC0 on the CPIS are discussed below for each Function:
- a. Manual Trio The LCO on Manual Trip backs up the automatic trips and ensures operators have the capability to rapidly initiate the CPIS Function if any parameter is trending toward its setpoint. At least one channel must be OPERABLE to be consistent with the requirements of LCO 3.9.3, " Containment Penetrations."

ACTIONS A CPIS channel is inoperable when it does not satisfy the OPERABILITY criteria for the channel's Function. The most common cause of channel inoperability is outright failure or ,
drift of the bistable or process module sufficient to exceed {
the tolerance allowed by the plant specific setpoint analysis. Typically, the drift'is not large and would !
result in a delay of actuation rather than a total loss of function. This determination is generally made during the ;
performance of a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST when the process 1 instrument is set up for adjustment to bring it within j s)ecification. If the actual trip setpoint is not within j t1e Allowable Value in SR 3.3.7.2, the channel is inoperable and the appropriate Conditions must be entered.
In the event a channel's trip setpoint is found nonconservative with respect to the Allowable Value, or the sensor, instrument loop, signal processing electronics, or bistable is found inoperable, then all affected Functions provided by that channel should be declared inoperable and the LCO Condition entered for the particular protective ,
function affected. i 1
When the number of inoperable channels in a trip Function exceeds those specified in any related Condition associated with the same trip Function, then the plant is outside the safety analysis. Therefore, LCO 3.0.3 should be immediately entered if applicable in the current MODE of operation.

A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value.
Significant deviations bet een the two instrument channels could be an indication of c tessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; thus, it is key to verifying the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

B 3.3.8 Containment Purge Isolation Signal (CPIS) (Digital)
BASES BACKGROUND This LCO encompasses the CPIS, which is a plant specific instrumentation channel that perfories an actuation function required for plant protection but is not otherwise included in LCO 3.3.6, " Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) Logic and Manual Trip," or LCO 3.3.7, " Diesel Generator (DG)-Loss of Voltage Start (LOVS)." Individual plants shall include the CPIS Function and LCO requirements that are applicable to them.
- t idM
^ The CPIS provides protection from adioactive contamination Oo h the containment in the event a fuel assembly should be severely damaged during handling. It also closes the purge valves during clant operation in response to a Reactor Coolant System (RCS) leak.
The CPIS will detect any abnormal amounts of radioactive material in the containment and will initiate purge valve closure to limit the release of radioactivity to the environment. Both the minipurge and large volume purge supply and exhaust valves are closed on a CPIS when a high radiation level in containment is detected.
The CPIS includes two independent, redundant logic subsystems, including actuation trains. Each train employs four sensors, each one detecting one of the following:
- Gaseous e Airborne particulate
- Iodine e Gamma (area)
If any one of these sensors exceeds the bistable trip setpoint, the CPIS train will be actuated (one-out-of-four logic).
Each train actuates a separate series valve in the containment purge supply and return lines. Either train controls sufficient equipment to perform the isolation (continued)

i Trio Setpoints and Allowable Values Trip setpoints used in the bistables are based on the analytical limits (Ref.1). The selection of these trip setpoints is such that adequate protection is provided when
- all sensor and processing time delays are taken into account. To allow for calibration tolerances, instrumentation uncertainties, and instrument drift, trip setpoint Allowable Values s secified in LCO 3.3.8 are conservatively adjusted witi respect to the analytical limits. A detailed description of the methodology used to calculate the trip setpoints, including their explicit uncertainties, is provided in " Plant Protection System Selection of Trip Setpoint Values" (Ref. 2). The actual nominal trip setpoint entered into the bistable.is normally still more conservative than that specified by the Allowable j Value to account for changes in random measurement errors detectable by a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST. One example of such a change in measurement error is drift during the surveillance interval. If the measured setpoint does not exceed the Allowable Value, the bistable is considered OPERABLE.
Setpoints in accordance with the Allowable Value will ensure that safety limits are not violated during anticipated operational occurrences (A00s) and the consequences of Design Basis Accidents will be acceptable, providing the plant is operated from within the LCOs at the onset of the A00 or accident and the equipment functions as designed.

The CPIS ensures the consequences of a dropped (continued) fuel assembly in containment are not as severe as a dropped assembly in the fuel handling building. This ensures that M the offsite consequences of radiation accidents in M containment are within 10 CFR 100 limits (Ref. 3).
The CPIS satisfies the requirements of Criterion 3 of the
' NRC Policy Statement.
I LC0 LCO 3.3.8 requires one CPIS channel to be OPERABLE. The
! required channel consists of [ particulate, iodine, gaseous, ;
- and area radiation monitors]; Actuation Logic; and Manual .
Trip. The specific Allowable Values for the setpoints of the CPIS are listed in the SRs.
Only the Allowable Values are specified for each trip Function in the LCO. Operation with a trip setpoint less conservative than the nominal trip setpoint, but within its Allowable Value, is acceptable, provided that the difference between the nominal trip setpoint and the Allowable Value is equal to or greater than the drift allowance assumed for each trip in the transient and accident analyses. A channel l 1s inoperable if its actual trip setpoint is not within its Allowable Value.
l Each Allowable Value specified is more conservative than the i analytical limit assumed in the transient and accident l analysis in order to account for instrument uncertainties appropriate to the trip function. These uncertainties are defined in the " Plant Protection System Selection of Trip Setpoint Values" (Ref. 2).
The Bases for the LC0 on CPIS are discussed below for each Function:
- a. Manual Trio i
The LCO on Manual Trip backs up the automatic trip and ensures operators have the capability to rapidly initiate the CPIS Function if any parameter is trending toward its setpoint. Only one manual channel of CPIS is required in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, since the l
CPIS is redundant with the CIAS and SIAS. 'Only one (continued)

- b. Airborne Radiation and Containment Area Radiatigg The LC0 on the radiation channels requires that each channel be OPERABLE for each Actuation Logic channel, since they are not totally redundant to each other.
The trip setpoint of twice background is selected to allow detection of small deviations from normal. The absolute value of ti;e trip setpoint in MODES 5 and 6 differs from the setpoint in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 so that a fuel handling accident can be detected in the lower background radiation expected in these MODES.

BACKGROUND Trio Setooints and Allowable Values (continued) account. To allow for calibration tolerances, instrumentation uncertainties, and instrument drift, Allowable Values specified in LC0 3.3.10 are conservatively adjusted with respect to the analytical limits. A detailed description of the methodology used to calculate the trip setpoints, including their explicit uncertainties, is provided in " Plant Protection System Selection of Trip Setpoint Values" (Ref. 3). The actual nominal trip setpoint entered into the bistable is normally still more conservative than that specified by the Allowable Value to account for changes in random measurement errors detectable by a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST. One example of such a change in measurement error is drift during the surveillance interval. If the measured setpoint does not exceed the Allowable Value, the bistable is considered OPERABLE.
Setpoints in accordance with the Allowable Value will ensure that Safety Limits are not violated during anticipated operational occurrences (A00s) and the consequences of Design Basis Accidents will be acceptable, sroviding the plant is operated from within the LCOs at tie onset of the A00 or accident and the equipment functions as designed.
APPLICABLE The FHIS is required to isolate the normal Fuel Building Air SAFETY ANALYSES Cleanup System (FBACS) and automatically initiate the recirculation and filtration systems in the event of the '
fuel handling accident,in the fuel handling building, as
__7 described in Reference 2. The FHIS helps ensure acceptable MS consequences for the dropping of a spent fuel bundle F breaching up to 60 fuel pins.
The FHIS satisfies the requirements of Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement.
LC0 LCO 3.3.10 requires one channel of FHIS to be OPERABLE. The required channel consists of Actuation Logic, Manual Trip, and [ particulate / iodine and] gaseous radiation monitors.
The specific Allowable Values for the setpoints of the FHIS are listed in the SRs.

In the event a channel's trip setpoint is found nonconservative with respect to the Allowable Value, or the sensor, instrument loop, signal processing electronics, or bistable is found inoperable, then all affected Functions provided by that channel are required to be declared
, inoperable and the LCO Condition entered for the particular protective function affected.
When the number of inoperable channels in a trip Function exceeds that specified in any related Condition associated with the same trip Function, then the plant is outside the safety analysis. Therefore, LCO 3.0.3 is immediately entered if applicable in the current MODE of operation.

This SR ensures each automatic containment isolation valve will actuate to its isolation position on a containment isolation N actuation signal. This Surveillance is not required for valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in the required position under' administrative controls. The

- a. The unit can be maintained in the shutdown or refueling condition for extended periods;
- b. Sufficient instrumentation and control capability is available for monitoring and maintaining the unit status; and
- c. Adequate AC electrical power is provided to mitigate events postulated during shutdow1, such as a fuel handling accidentTL- g g ,TMj
- In general, when the unit is snut down, the Technical Specifications requirements ensure that the unit has the capability to mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents. However, assuming a single failure and concurrent loss of all offsite or all onsite power is not required. The rationale for this is based on the fact that many Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) that are analyzed in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 have no specific analyses in MODES 5 and 6. Worst case bounding events are deemed not credible in MODES 5 and 6 because the energy contained within the reactor pressure boundary, reactor coolant temperature and pressure, and the corresponding stresses result in the .
probabilities of occurrence being significantly reduced or eliminated, and in minimal consequences. These deviations from DBA analysis assumptions and design requirements during shutdown conditions are allowed by the LCO for required systems.
During MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, various deviations from the analysis assumptions and design requirements are allowed (continued)

Together, OPERABILITY of the required (continued) offsite circuit and DG ensures the availability of sufficient AC sources to operate the unit in a safe manner and to mitigate the consequences of postulated event tring shutdown (e.g.,fuelhandlingaccidentp.

The qualified offsite circuit must be capable of maintaining rated frequency and voltage, and accepting required loads during an accident, while connected to the Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) bus (es). Qualified offsite circuits are those that are described in the FSAR and are part of the licensing basis for the unit..
Offsite circuit #1 consists of Safeguards Transformer 8, which is supplied from Switchyard Bus B, and is fed through breaker 52-3 powering the ESF transformer XNB01, which, in turn, powers the #1 ESF bus through its normal feeder breaker. The second offsite circuit consists of the Startup Transformer, which is normally fed from the Switchyard Bus A, and is fed through breaker PA 0201 powering the ESF transformer, which, in turn, powers the #2 ESF bus through its normal feeder breaker. _
The DG must be capable of starting, accelerating to rated ,
speed and voltage, connecting to its respective ESF bus on j detection of bus undervoltage, and accepting required loads.
This sequence must be accomplished within (10] seconds. The DG must be capable of accepting required loads within the assumed loading sequence intervals, and must continue to operate until offsite power can be restored to the ESF buses. These capabilities are required to be met from a variety of initial conditions such as DG in standby with the engine hot and DG in standby at ambient conditions.
Proper sequencing of loads, including tripping of nonessential loads, is a required function for DG OPERABILITY.
In addition, proper sequencer operation is an integral part of offsite circuit OPERABILITY since its inoperability impacts on the ability to start and maintain energized loads required OPERABLE by LCO 3.8.10.

With the offsite circuit not available to all required trains, the option would still exist to declare all required features inoperable. Since this option.may involve undesired administrative efforts, the allowance for sufficiently conservative actions is made. With the required DG inoperable, the minimum required diversity of AC power sources is not available. It is, therefore, required to suspend CORE ALTERATIONS, movement ofiirradiated fuel
[.co.c.a. H assemblies, and operations involving positive reactivity additions. The Required Action to suspend positive reactivity additions does not preclude actions to maintain or increase reactor vessel inventory provided the required SDM is maintained.
Suspension of these activities does not preclude completion of actions to establish a safe conservative condition.
These actions minimize the probability or the occurrence of postulated events. It is further required to immediately initiate action to restore the required AC sources and to continue this action until restoration is accomplished in order to p-ovide the necessary AC power to the unit safety systems.
The Comph. tion Time of immediately is consistent with the required times for actions requiring prompt attention. The restoration of the required AC electrical power sources should be completed as quickly as possible in order to minimize the time during which the unit safety systems may be without sufficient power.
Pursuant to LCO 3.0.6, the Distribution System's ACTIONS are not entered even if all AC sources to it are inoperable, resulting in de-energization. Therefore, the Required Actions of Condition A are modified by a Note to indicate that when Condition A is entered with no AC power to any required ESF bus, the ACTIONS for LCO 3.8.10 must be immediately entered. This Note allows Condition A to provide requirements for the loss of the offsite circuit, whether or not a train is de-energized. LCO 3.8.10 provides the appropriate restrictions for the situation involving a de-energized train.

within containment 5 .... m . r- '- ~ m - Y a release of fission product radioactivity within the containment will be restricted from escaping to the environment when the LC0 requirements are met. In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, this is accomplished by maintaining containment OPERABLE as described in LC0 3.6.1, " Containment." In i MODE 6, the potential for containment sressurization as a result of an accident is not likely; t1erefore, requirements to isolate the containment from the outside atmosphere can be less stringent. The LC0 requirements are referred to as
" containment closure" rather than " containment OPERABILITY."
Containment closure means that all potential escape paths I are closed or capable of being closed. Since there is no potential for containment pressurization, the Appendix J leakage criteria and tests are not required.
~
The containment serves to contain fission product radioactivity that may be released from the reactor core i following an accident, such that offsite radiation exposures I are maintained well within the requirements of 10 CFR 100.
Additionally, the containment structure provides radiation shielding from the fission products that may be present in the containment atmosphere following accident conditions.
The containment equipment hatch, which is part of the containment pressure boundary, provides a means for moving large equipment and components into and out of containment.
DurinM"I M """"" " movement of4 irradiated fuel assemblies with n containment, the equipment hatch must b held in place by at least four bolts. Good engineering '

The containment air locks, which are also part of the containment pressure boundarv, provide a means for personnel access during MODES 1, 2, 3 snd 4 operation in accordance with LCO 3.6.2, "Containmen ' *r Locks." Each air lock has a door at both ends. The dovr2 are normally interlocked to prevent simultaneous opening when containment OPERABILITY is required.

BASES BACKGROUND closure is not required, the door interlock mechanism may be (continued) disabled, allowing both doors of an air lock to remain open for extended periods when frecue_nt containment entry is
=- necessary. During%' HPF "-m movement of rradiated fuel assemblies within containment, containment bNg] closure is required; therefore, the door interlock mechanism may remain disabled, but one air lock door must always remain closed.
The requirements on containment penetration closure ensure that a release of fission product radioactivity within containment will be restricted from escaping to the environment. The closure restrictions are sufficient to restrict fission product radioactivity release from containment due to a fuel handling accident during refueling. Ingr The Containment Purge and Exhaust System includes two subsystems. The normal subsystem includes a 42 inch purge penetration and a 42 inch exhaust penetration. The second subsystem, a minipurge system, includes an 8 inch purge penetration and an 8 inch exhaust penetration. During MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the two valves in each of the normal purge and exhaust penetrations are secured in the closed position. The two valves in each of the two minipurge penetrations can be opened intermittently, but are closed automatically by the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS). Neither of the subsystems is subject to a Specification in MODE 5.
In MODE 6, large air exchanges are necessary to conduct refueling operations. The normal 42 inch purge system is used for this purpose and all valves are closed by the ESFAS in accordance with LC0 3.3.2, " Reactor Protective System j (RPS)-Shutdown." l The minipurge system remains operational in MODE 6 and all four valves are also closed by the ESFAS. l or The minipurge system is not used in MODE 6.

Policy Statement.
LC0 This LCO limits the consequences of a fuel handling accident _ T o in containment by limiting the potential escape paths for fission product radioactivity released within containment.
The LCO requires any penetration providing direct access from the containment atmosphere to the outside atmosphere to be closed except for the OPERABLE containment purge and exhaust penetrations. For the OPERABLE containment purge and exhaust penetrations, this LC0 ensures that these penetrations are isolable by the Containment Purge and Exhaust Isolation System. The OPERABILITY requirements for this LCO ensure that the automatic purge and exhaust valve closure times specified in the FSAR can be achieved and therefore meet the assumptions used in the safety analysis (continued)

Insert E REVIEWER'S NOTE The addition of the term "recently" associated with handling irradiated fuel in all of the containment function Technical Specification requirements is only applicable to
. those licensees who have demonstrated by analysis that after sufficient radioactive .
decay has occurred, off-site doses resulting from a fuel handling accident remain below the Standard Review Plan limits (well within 10CFR100).
Additionally, licensees adding the , term "recently" must make the following commitment which is consistent with draft NUMARC 93-01, Revision 3, Section 11.2.6 -Safety Assessment for Removal of Equipment from Service During Shutdown Conditions" , subheading " Containment - Primary (PWR)/ Secondary (BWR)".
"The following guidelines are included in the assessment of systems removed from service during movement of irradiated fuel.
I
- During fuel handling / core alterations, ventilation system and radiation monitor availability (as defined in NUMARC 91-06) should be assessed, with respect to filtration and monitoring of releases from the fuel. Following shutdown, radioactivity in the fuel decays away fairly rapidly. The basis of the Technical Specification operability amendment is the reduction in doses due to such decay. The goal of maintaining ventilation system and radiation monitor availability is to reduce doses even further below that provided by the natural decay.
- A single normal or contingency method to promptly close primary or secondary containment penetrations should be developed. Such prompt methods need not completely block the penetration or be capable of resisting pressure.
l The purpose of the " prompt methods" mentioned above are to enable ventilation systems to draw the release from a postulated fuel handling accident in the proper direction such that it can be treated and monitored."

The normal Frequency for SR 3.6.1.3.7 is 184 days. Since more reliance is placed on a single valve while in this Condition, it is prudent to perform the SR more often.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.6.1.3.1 REQUIREMENTS Each [18] inch primary containment purge valve is required to be verified sealed closed at 31 day intervals. This SR is designed to ensure that a gross breach of primary containment is not caused by an inadvertent or spurious opening of a primary containment purge valve. Detailed analysis of the purge valves failed to conclusively demonstrate their ability to close during a LOCA in time to limit offsite doses. Primary containment purge valves that are sealed closed must have motive power to the valve operator removed. This can be accomplished by de-energizing the. source of electric power or removing the air supply to the valve operator. In this application, the term " sealed" has no connotation of leak tightness. The 31 day Frequency is a rasult of an NRC initiative, Generic Issue B-24 (Ref. 4), related to primary contrinment purge valve use during unit operations.
This SR allows a valve that is open under administrative controls to not meet the SR during the time the valve is open. Opening a purge valve under administrative controls is restricted to one valve in a penetration flow path at a given time (refer to discussion for Note 1 of the ACTIONS) in order to effect repairs to that valve. This allows one purge valve to be opened without resulting in a failure of the Surveillance and resultant entry into the ACTIONS for this purge valve, provided the stated restrictions are met.
Condition E must be entered during this allowance, and the valve opened only as necessary for effecting repairs. Each purge valve in the penetration flow path may be alternately opened, provided one remains sealed closed, if necessary, to complete repairs on the penetration.
The SR is modified by a Note stating that primary .
containment purge valves are only required to be sealed closed in MODES 1, 2, and 3. If a LOCA inside primary (continued)

REQUIREMENTS containment occurs in these MODES, the purge valves may not be capable of closing before the pressure pulse affects systems downstream of the purge valves or the release of radioactive material will exceed limits prior to the closing of the purge valves. At other times when the purge valves are required to be capable of closing (e.g., during handling
,.f ofairradiated fuel), pressurization concerns are not present
_and the purge valves are allowed to be open. _
SR 3.6.1.3.2 This SR ensures that the primary containment purge valves are closed as required or, if open, open for an allowable reason. If a purge valve is open in violation of this SR, the valve is considered inoperable. If the inoperable valve is not otherwise known to have excessive leakage when closed, it is not considered to have leakage outside of limits. (The SR is also modified by a Note (Note 1),
stating that primary containment purge valves are only required to be closed in MODES 1, 2, and 3. If a LOCA inside primary containment occurs in these MODES, the purge valves may not be capable of closing before the pressure pulse affects systems downstream of the purge valves, or the release of radioactive material will exceed limits prior to the purge valves closing. At other times when the purge valves are required to be capable of closing (e.g., during handling of irradiated fuel), pressurization concerns are not present and the purge valves are allowed to be open.]
The SR is modified by a Note (Note 2) stating that the SR is not required to be met when the purge valves are open for the stated reasons. The Note states that these valves ny be opened for inerting, de-inerting, pressure control, ALARA or air quality considerations for personnel entry, or Surveillances that require the valves to be open. The (18] inch purge valves are capable of closing in the environment following a LOCA. Therefore, these valves are allowed to be open for limited periods of time. The 31 day Frequency is consistent with other PCIV requirements discussee in SR 3.6.1.3.3.

REQUIREMENTS OPERABILITY. Operating experience has demonstrated that this type of seal has the potential to degrade in a shorter time period than do other seal types. Based on this observation and the importance of maintaining this penetration leak tight (due to the direct path between primary containment and the environment), a Frequency of ,
184 days was established.
Additionally, this SR must be performed once within 92 days after opening the valve. The 92 day Frequency was chosen recognizing that cycling the valve could introduce additional seal degradation (beyond that which occurs to a valve that has not been opened). Thus, decreasing the I interval (from 184 days) is a prudent measure after a valve has been opened.
The SR is modified by a Note stating that the primary containment purge valves are only required to meet leakage rate testing requirements in MODES 1, 2, and 3. If a LOCA inside primary containment occurs in these MODES, purge valve leakage must be minimized to ensure offsite radiological release is within limits. At other times when the purge valves are required to be capable of closing

(e.g., during handling ofdrradiated fuel), pressurization concerns are not present and the purge valves are not required to meet any specific leakage criteria.
SR' 3.6.1.3.8 Verifying that the isolation time of each MSIV is within the specified limits is required to demonstrate OPERABILITY.
The isolation time test ensures that the MSIV will isolate in a time period that does not exceed the times assumed in the DBA analyses. This ensures that the calculated radiological consequences of these events remain within
. 10 CFR 100 limits. The Frequency of this SR is [in accordance with the requirements of the Inservice Testing Program or 18 months).

[ Secondary) Containment B 3.6.4.1 B 3.6 CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS B 3.6.4.1 (Secondary) Containment BASES BACKGROUND The function of the (secondary) containment is to contain, dilute, and hold up fission products that may leak from primary containment following a Design Basis Accident (DBA).
In conjunction with operation of the Standby Gas Treatment (SGT) System and closure of certain valves whose lines penetrate the [ secondary) containment, the [ secondary) containment is designed to reduce the activity level of the fission products prior to release to the environment and to isolate and contain fission products that are released during certain operations that take place inside primary containment, when primary containment is not required to be OPERABLE, or that take place outside primary containment.
The (secondary) containment is a structure that completely encloses the primary containment and those components that may be postulated to contain primary system fluid. This structure forms a control volume that serves to hold up and dilute the fission products. It is possible for the pressure in the control volume to rise relative to the environmental pressure (e.g., due to pump and motor heat load additions). To prevent ground level exfiltration while allowing the (secondary) containment to be designed as a conventional structure, the (secondary} containment requires support syst"ts to maintain the contro , volume pressure at less than th. external pressure. Requirements for these systems are g ecified separately in LCO 3.6.4.2, " Secondary Containment Isolation Valves (SCIVs) " and LCO 3.6.4.3,
" Standby Gas Treatment (SGT) System."
APPLICABLE There are two principal accidents for which credit is taken SAFETY ANALYSES for [ secondary) containment OPERABILITY. These are a loss
, of coolant accident (LOCA) (Ref.1) and a fuel handling
%AC "
accident ,inside (secondary) containment (Ref. 2). The
[ secondary) containment performs no active function in response to each of these limiting events; however, its leak tightness is required to ensure that the release of radioactive materials from'the )rimary containment is restricted to those leakage patis and associated leakage ,

l LCO An OPERABLE [ secondary] containment arovides a control l volume into which fission products t1st bypass or leak from primary containment, or are released from the reactor coolant pressure boundary components located in (secondary]
containment, can be diluted and processed prior to release ;

APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, and 3, a LOCA could lead to a fission product release to primary containment that leaks to [ secondary]
containment. Therefore, [ secondary] containment OPERABILITY is required during the same operating conditions that require primary containment OPERABILITY.
In MODES 4 and 5, the probability and consequences of the ]

BASES ,
BACKGROUND- The function of the SCIVs, in combination with other accident mitigation systems, is to limit fission product release during and following postulated Design Basis ,
Accidents (DBAs) (Ref.1). Secondary containment isolation within the time limits specified for those isolation valves designed to close automatically ensures that fission products that leak from primary containment following a DBA, or that are released during certain operations when primary containment is not required to be OPERABLE or take place outside primary containment, are maintained within the secondary containment boundary.
The OPERABILITY requirements for. SCIVs help ensure that an adequate (secondary) containment boundary is maintained during and after an accident by minimizing potential paths to the environment. These isolation devices consist of either passive devices or active (automatic) devices.
Manual valves, de-activated automatic valves secured in their closed position (including check valves with flow through the valve secured), and blind flanges are considered passive devices.
Automatic SCIVs close on a (secondary] containment isolation signal to establish a boundary for untreated radioactive material within (secondary) containment following a DBA or other accidents.
Other penetrations are isolated by the use of valves in the closed position or blind flanges.
APPLICABLE The SCIVs must be OPERABLE to ensure the : secondary)
SAFETY ANALYSES containment barrier to fission product releases is established. The principal accidents for which the (secondary) containment boundary is required are a loss of
- coolant accident (Ref.1) and a fuel handling accident
- ToMC.-' ;inside (secondary) containment (Ref. 2). The (
- ,econdary) containment performs no active function in response to either of these limiting events, but the boundary .

Maintaining SCIVs OPERABLE with isolation times within limits ensures that fission products will remain trapped inside (secondary] containment so that they can be treated by the SGT System prior to discharge to the environment.
SCIVs satisfy Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement.
LCO SCIVs form a part of the (secondary] containment boundary.
The SCIV safety function is related to control of offsite radiation releases resulting from DBAs.
The power operated isolation valves are considered OPERABLE when their isolation times are within limits and the valves actuate on an automatic isolation signal. The valves
. covered by this LCO, along with their associated stroke times, are listed in Reference 3.
The normally closed isolation valves or blind flanges are considered OPERABLE when manual valves are closed or open in accordance with appropriate administrative controls, automatic SCIVs are de-activated and secured in their closed position, and blind flanges are in place. These passive -
isolation valves or devices are listed in Reference 3.
APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, and 3, a DBA could lead to a fission product release to the primary containment that leaks to the
[ secondary] containment. Therefore, the OPERABILITY of SCIVs is required.
In MODES 4 and 5, the probability and consequences of these events are reduced due to pressure and temperature limitations in these MODES. Therefore, maintaining SCIVs OPERABLE is not required in MODE 4 or 5, except for other situations under which significant radioactive releases can be postulated, such as during operations with a potential for draining the reactor vessel (OPDRVs@m;4 (continued)

Moving 6 irradiated fuel assemblies in the [ secondary] containment may also occur in MODES 1, 2, and 3. g s ACTIONS- The ACTIONS are modified by three Notes. The first Note allows penetration flow paths to be unisolated intermittently under administrative controls. These controls consist of stationing a dedicated operator, who is ;
in continuous communication with the control room, at the controls of the isolation device. In this way, the penetration can be rapidly isolated when a need for (secondary] containment isolation is indicated.
i The second Note provides clarification that-for the purpose )
of this LCO separate Condition entry is allowed for each
. penetration flow path. This is acceptable, since the Required Actions for each Condition provide appropriate com)ensatory actions for each inoperable SCIV. Complying 4 wit) the Required Actions may allow for continued operation, I and subsequent inoperable SCIVs are governed by subsequent Condition entry and application of associated Required Actions.
The third Note ensures appropriate remedial actions are taken, if necessary, if the affected system (s) are rendered inoperable by an inoperable SCIV.
A.1 and A.2 ,
In the event that there are one or more penetration flow paths with one SCIV inoperable, the affected penetration flow path (s) must be isolated. The method of isolation must include the use of at least one isolation barrier that cannot be adversely affected by a single active failure.
Isolation barriers that meet this criterion are a closed and de-activated automatic SCIV, a closed manual valve, and a blind flange. For penetrations isolated in accordance with Required Action A.1, the device used to isolate the penetration should be the closest available device to
. [ secondary] containment. The Required Action must be completed within the_8 hour Completion Time. The specified -

Adequate AC electrical power is provided to mitigate events postulated during shutdown, such as an inadvertent draindown of the vessel or a fuel handling Ls accident $4 In general, when the unit is shut down the Technical Specifications requirements ensure that the unit has the capability to mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents. However, assuming a single failure and concurrent loss of all offsite or loss of all onsite power is not required. The rationale for this is based on the fact that many Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) that are analyzed in MODES 1, 2, and 3 have no specific analyses in MODES 4 and 5. Worst case Munding events are deemed not credible in MODES 4 and 5 because the energy contained within the reactor pressure boundary, reactor coolant temperature and pressure, and corresponding stresses result in the probabilities of occurrences significantly reduced or '
eliminated, and minimal consequences. These deviations from DBA analysis assumptions and design requirements during shutdown conditions are allowed by the LC0 for required ,

AC Sources-Shutdown
. B 3.8.2 Ib bw.I LCO power source is available for providing electrical power (continued) support assuming a loss of the offsite circuit. Together, OPERABILITY of the required offsite circuit and DG ensures the availability of sufficient AC sources to operate the plant in a safe manner and to mitigate the consequences of postulated events during shutdown (e.g., fuel handling accidentsj and reactor vessel draindown).
The qualified offsite circuit (s) must be capable of naintaining rated frequency and voltage while connected to their respective ESF bus (es), and of accepting required loads during an accident. Qualified offsite circuits are those that are described in the FSAR and are part of the licensing basis for the unit. [The offsite circuit consists of incoming breaker and disconnect to the 2C or 2D startup auxiliary transformer (SAT), associated 2C or 2D SAT, and the respective circuit path including feeder breakers to all 4.16 kV ESF buses required by LC0 3.8.10.)
The required DG must be capable of starting, accelerating to rated speed and voltage, connecting to its respective ESF bus on detection of bus undervoltage, and accepting required loads. This sequence must be accomplished within
[12] seconds. Each DG must also be capable of accepting required loads within the assumed loading sequence intervals, and must continue to operate until offsite power can be restored to the ESF buses. These capabilities are required to be met from a variety of initial conditions such as DG in standby with engine hot and DG in standby with engine at ambient conditions. Additional DG capabilities must be demonstrated to meet required Surveillances, e.g.,
capability of the DG to revert to standby status on an ECCS signal while operating in parallel test mode.
Proper sequencing of loads, including tripping of nonessential loads, is a required function for DG OPERABILITY. [In addition, proper sequence operation is an integral part of offsite circuit OPERABILITY since its ,
inoperability impacts the ability to start and maintain energized loads required OPERABLE by LC0 3.8.10.]
It is acceptable for divisions to be cross tied during shutdown conditions, permitting a single offsite power circuit to supply all required divisions. No fast transfer capability is required for offsite circuits to be considered OPERABLE.

High ventilation exhaust radiation is an indication of l possible gross failure of the fuel cladding. The release !
may have originated from the primary containment due to a break in the RCPB. When Exhaust Radiation-High is detected, valves whose penetrations communicate with the primary containment atmosphere are isolated to limit the
'm release of fission products. Additionally, the Ventilation 9Ag Exhaust Radiation-High is assumed to initiate isolation of the primary containment during a fuel handling accident k N (Ref. 2).
The Exhaust Radiation-High signals are initiated from i radiation detectors that are located on the ventilation exhaust piping coming from the drywell and containment. The signal from each detector is input to an individual monitor whose trip outputs are assigned to an isolation channel.

PCIVs B 3.6.1.3 Ts77-s%.t BASES (continu'ed)
APPLICABLE The PCIV LCO was derived from the assumptions related SAFETY ANALYSES to minimizing the loss of reactor coolant inventory, and establishing the piimary containment boundary during major accidents. As part of the primary containment boundary, PCIV OPERABILITY supports leak tightness of primary containment. Therefore, the safety. analysis of any event requiring isolation of primary containment is applicable to this LC0.
The DBAs that result in a release of radioactive material for which the consequances are mitigated by PCIVs are a loss 3*M E of coolant accident (LOCA), a main steam line break (MSLB),
and a fuel handlina accident inside primary containment
[ =, (Refs. 1 and zj. En the analysis for each of these accidents, it is assumed that PCIVs are either closed or function to close within the required isolation time following event initiation. This ensures that potential paths to the environment through PCIVs (including primary containment purge valves) are minimized. Of the events analyzed in Reference 1,'the MSLB is the most limiting event due to radiological consequences. The closure time of the main steam isolation valves (MSIVs) is a significant variable from a radiological standpoint. The MSIVs are required to close within 3 to 5 seconds since the 5 second closure time is assumed in the analysis. The safety analyses assume that the purge valves are closed at event initiation. Likewise, it is assumed that the primary containment is isolated such that re'iease of fission products to the environment is controlled.
The DBA analysis assumes that within 60 seconds after the accident, isolation of the primary containment is complete and leakage terminated, except for the maximum allowable leakage, L . The primary containment isolation total response tTme of 60 seconds includes signal delay, diesel generator startup (for loss of offsite power), and PCIV stroke times.
[The single failure criterion required to be imposed in the conduct of unit safety analyses was considered in the original design of the primary containment purge valves.
Two valves in series on each purge line provide assurance that both the supply and exhaust lines could be isolated even if a single failure occurred.]

EASES (continued) .
APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, and 3, a DBA could cause a release of radioactive material to primary containment. In MODES 4 and 5, the probability and consequences of these events are reduced due to the pressure and temperature limitations of these MODES. Therefore, most PCIVs are not required to be OPERABLE and the primary containment purge valves are not required to be sealed closed in MODES 4 and 5. Certain valves are required to be OPERABLE, however, to prevent inadvertent reactor vessel draindown and releans of radioactive material during a postulated fuel handling These valves are those whose associated o accidenj,tationisrequiredtobeOPERABLEaccordingto instrumen E. LC0 3.3.6.1, " Primary Containment Isolation i a Instrumentation." (This does not include the valves that isolate the associated instrumentation.)
ACTIONS The ACTIONS are modified by a Note allowing penetration flow path (s) (except for the [ ] inch primary containment purge valve flow path (s)] to be unisolated intermittently under administrative controls. (The primary containment purge valve exception applies to primary containment purge valves that are not qualified to close under accident conditions.] j These controls consist of stationing a dedicated operator at l the controls of the valve, who is in continuous communication with the control room. In this way, the penetration can be rapidly isolated when a need for primary ;
containment isolation is indicated. Due to the size of the containment purge line penetration and the fact that those I penetrations exhaust directly from the primary containment atmosphere to the environment, the penetration flow path containing these valves may not be opened under administrative controls. A single purge valve in a penetration flow path may be opened to effect repairs to an inoperable valve, as allowed by the exception to SR 3.6.1.3.1 and Note 2 to SR 3.6.1.3.2.
A second Note has been added to provide clarification that, for the purpose of this LCO, separate Condition entry is ;
allowed for each penetration flow path. This is acceptable, since the Required Actions for each Condition provide appropriate compensatory actions for each inoperable PCIV.
Complying with the Required Actions may allow for continued operation, and subsequent inoperable PCIVs are governed by (continued)

REQUIREMENTS limit offsite doses. Primary containment purge valves that are sealed closed must have motive power to the valve o)erator removed. This can be accomplished by de-energizing tie source of electric power or removing the air supply to the valve operator, In this a > plication, the term " sealed" has no connotation of leak tigitness. The 31 day Frequency is a result of an NRC initiative, Generic Issue B-24 (Ref. 5), related to primary containment purge valve use during unit operations.
This SR allows a valve that is open under administrative controls to not meet the SR during the time the valve is open. Opening a purge valve under administrative controls is restricted to one valve in a penetration flow path at a given time (refer to discussion for Note 1 of the ACTIONS) in order to effect repairs to that valve. This allows one purge valve to be opened without resulting in a failure of the Surveillance and resultant entry into the ACTIONS for this purge valve, provided the stated restrictions are met.
Condition E must be entered during this allowance, and the valve opened only as necessary for effecting repairs. Each purge valve in the penetration flow path may be alternately opened, provided one remains sealed closed, if necessary, to complete repairs on the penetration.
The SR is modified by a Note stating that primary containment purge valves are only required to be sealed closed in MODES 1, 2, and 3. If a i.0CA inside primary containment occurs in these MODES, the purge valves may not be capable of closing before the pressure pulse affects systems downstream of the purge valves or the release of radioactive material will exceed limits prior to the closing of the purge valves.

BASES BACKGROUND Thi3unctionofthe[secondarycontainment)istocontain, dilute, and hold up fission products that may leak from primary containment following a Design Basis Accident (DBA).
In conjunction with operation of the Standby Gas Treatment (SGT) System and closure of certain valves whose lines penetrate the [ secondary containment], the [ secondary containment) is designed to reduce the activity level of the fission products prior to release to the environment and to isolate and contain fission products that are released during certain operations that take place inside primary containment, when primary containment is not required to be OPERABLE, or that take place outside primary containment.
The [ secondary containment) is a structure that completely encloses the primary containment and those components that may be postulated to contain primary system fluid. This structure forms a control volume that serves to hold up and dilute the fission products. It is possible for the pressure in the control volume to rise relative to the _
environmental pressure (e.g., due to pump / motor heat load l additions). To prevent ground level exfiltration while allowing the [ secondary containment] to be designed as a conventional structure, the [ secondary containment] requires support systems to maintain the control volume pressure at less than the external pressure. Requirements for these systems are specified separately in LCO 3.6.4.2, " Secondary Containment Isolation Valves (SCIVs)," and LCO 3.6.4.3, i
" Standby Gas Treatment (SGT) System."
APPLICABLE There are three principal accidents for which credit is SAFETY ANALYSES ' taken for (secondary containment] OPERABILITY. These are a 4- LOCA (Ref. 15 a fuel handling ac:identtinside primary + -

SCIVs B 3.6.4.2 B 3.6 CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS B 3.6.4.2 Secondary Containment Isolation Valvos (SCIVs)
BASES BACKGROUND The function of the SCIVs, in combination with other accident mitigation systems, is to limit fission product release during and following postulated Design Basis (Ref. 1). Secondary containment isolation
'within Accidents (DBAs) limits specified for those isolation valves the time designed to close automatically ensures that fission products that leak from primary containment following a DBA, I that are released during certain operations when primary containment is not required to be OPERABLE, or that take place outside primary containment, are maintained within the secondary containment boundary.
The OPERABILITY requirements for SCIVs help ensure that an adequate secondary containment boundary is maintained during and after an accident by minimizing potential paths to the environment. These isolation devices are either passive or active (automatic). Manual valves, de-activated automatic valves secured in their closed position (including check valves with flow through the valve secured), and blind flanges are considered passive devices. Check valves or other automatic valves designed to close without operator action following an accident are considered active devices.
Isolation barrier (s) for the penetration are discussed in Reference 2.
Automatic SCIVs close on a secondary containment isolation signal to establish a boundary for untreated radioactive material within secondary containment following a DBA or other accidents.
Other penetrations ant isolated by the use of valves in the closed position or blind flanges.
APPLICABLE The SCIVs must' be OPERABLE to ensure the secondary SAFETY ANALYSES- containment barrier to fission product releases is established. The principal accidents for which the secondary containment boundary is required are a loss of coolant accident (Ref.1), a fuel handling accident,inside (LseM E 1 !

SCIVs is required to ensure that leakage from the primary containment is processed by the Standby Gas Treatment (SGT)
System before being released to the environment.
Maintaining SCIVs OPERABLE with isolation times within limits ensures that fission products will remain trapped inside secondary containment so that they can be treated by i the SGT System prior to discharge to the environment.
J SCIVs satisfy Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement.
LCO SCIVs form a part of the secondary containment boundary. The SCIV safety function is related to control of offsite radiation releases resulting from DBAs.
The automatic power, operated isolation vales are considered OPERABLE when their isolation times are within limits and the valves actuate on an automatic isolation signal. The valves covered by this LCO, along with their associated stroke times, are listed in Reference 5.
The normally closed isolation valves or blind flanges are considered OPERABLE when manual valves are closed or open in accordance with appropriate administrative controls, automatic SCIVs are de-activated and secured in their closed position, and blind flanges are in place. These passive isolation valves or devices are listed in Reference 5.

In MODES 4 and 5, the probability and consequences of these events are reduced due to pressure and temperature limitations in these MODES. Therefore, maintaining SCIVs OPERABLE is not required in MODE 4 or 5, except for other (continued)

The second Note provides clarification that for the purpose l of this LCO separate Condition entry is allowed for each penetration flow path. This is acceptable, since the Required Actions for each Condition provide appropriate compensatory actions for each inoperable SCIV. Complying l with the Required Actions may allow for continued operation, and subsequent inoperable SCIVs are governed by subseauent Condition entry and application of associated Required Actions.
The third Note ensures appropriate remedial actions are taken, if necessary, if the affected system (s) are rendered inoperable by an inoperable SCIV.
A.1 and A.2 In the event that there are one or more penetration flow paths with one SCIV inoperable, the affected penetration flow path (s) must be isolated. The method of isolation must include the use of at least one isolation barrier that cannot be adversely affected by a single active failure.

I In general, when the unit _is shut down the Technical Specifications (TS) requirements ensure that the unit has the capability to mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents. However, assuming a single failure and concurrent loss of all offsite or loss cf all onsite power is not required. The rationale for this is based on the fcet that many Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) that are analyzed in MODES 1, 2, and 3 have no specific analyses in MODES 4 and S. Worst case bounding events are deemed not credible in MODES 4 and 5 because the energy contained within the reactor pressure boundary, reactor coolant '
temperature and pressure, and the corresponding stresses
. result in the probabilities of occurrence significantly reduced or eliminated, and minimal consequenct These deviations from DBA analysis assumptions and des.wn requirements during shutdown conditions are allowed by the LCO for required systems.

Similarly, when the high pressure core spray (HPCS) is required to be OPERABLE, a separate offsite circuit to the Division 3 Class 1E onsite electrical power distribution subsystem, or an OPEftABLEsDivision 3 DG, ensures an additional source of power for th'e HPCS. This additional source for Division 3 is not necessarily required to be connected to be OPERABLE.
Either the circuit required by LCO Item a., or a circuit required to meet LC0 Item c. may be connected, with the second source available for connection.

l APPLICABLE The initial conditions of Design Basis Accident and SAFETY ANALYSES transient analyses in the FSAR, Chapter [6] (Ref.1) and 1 Chapter [15] (Ref. 2), assume Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) systems are OPERABLE. The AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution systems are designed to provide sufficient capacity, capability, redundancy, and reliability to ensure the availability of necessary power to ESF systems so that the fuel, Reactor Coolant System, and containment design limits are not exceeded.
The OPERABILITY of the AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution' system is consistent with the initial assumptions of the accident analyses and the requirements for the supported systems' OPERABILITY.
The OPERABILITY of the minimum AC, DC, and AC vital bus ,
electrical power sources and associated power distribution l (FJCCM4 subsystems during MODES 4 and 5, and during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the primary or secondary containment ensures that:
I
.a. The facility can be maintained in the shutdown or refueling condition for extended periods;
- b. Sufficient instrumentation and control capability is available for monitoring and maintaining the unit status; and
- c. Adequate power is provided to mitigate events postulated during shutdown, such as an inadvertent 4 draindown of the vessel or a fuel handling accidentf The AC and DC electrical power distribution systems satisfy Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement. J l

LC0 Various combinations of subsystems,' equipment, and components are required OPERABLE by other LCOs, depending on the specific plant condition. Implicit in those requirements is the required OPERABILITY of necessary support required features. This LC0 explicitly requires energization of the portions of the electrical distribution system necessary to support OPERABILITY of Technical Specifications' required systems, equipment, and components-both specifically addressed by their own Lrn<,,
and implicitly required by the definition of OPERABILF.1 1
Maintaining these portions of the distribution system energized ensures the availability of sufficient power to operate the plant in a safe manner to mitigate the consequences of postulated events during shutdown (e.g.,
fuel handling accidents and inadvertmit reactor vessel draindown). Lech L A APPLICABILITY The AC and DC electrical power distribution subsystems required to be OPERABLE in MODES 4 and 5 and during movement o irradiated fuel assemblies in the [ secondary) containment g w h\ Q provide assurance that:
- a. Systems to provide adequate coolant inventory makeup are available for the irradiated fuel in the core in case of an inadvertent draindown of the reactor ,
vessel; l
- b. Systems needed to mitigate a fuel handling accident c1 r_re available;
- c. Systems necessary to mitigate the effects of events that can lead to core damage during shutdown are available; and
- d. Instrumentation and control capability is available for monitoring and maintaining the unit in a cold shutdown or refueling condition.
The AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystem requirements for MODES 1, 2, and 3 are covered in LCO 3.8.9.

ACTIONS A.I. A.2.1. A.2.2. A.2.3. A.2.4. and A.2.5 Although redundant required features may require redundant divisions of electrical power distribution subsystems to be
, -@ OPERABLE,oneOPERABLEdistributionsubsystemdivisionm be capable of supporting sufficient required features to allow continuation of CORE ALTERATIONS,qfuel movement, and dM[) operations with a potential for dratnmg the reactor vessel.
[( # " By allowing the option to declare required features associated with an inoperable distribution subsystem inoperable, apsro>riate restrictions are implemented in accordance wit 1 tie affected distribution subsystem LC0's Required Actions. In many instances, this option may involve undesired administrative efforts. Therefore, the allowance for sufficiently conservative actions is made (i.e., to suspend CORE ALTERATIONS, movementfi oJ rradiated fuel assemblies in the [ primary or secondary]fcontainment and any activities that could result in inadvertentldraining of the reactor vessel). g Suspension of these activities shall not preclude complerion of actions to establish a safe conservative condition.
These actions minimize the probability of the occurrence of postulated events. It is further required to immediately initiate action to restore the required AC and DC electrical power distribution subsystems and to continue this action until restoration is accomplished in order to provide the necessary power to the plant safety systems.
Notwithstanding performance of the above conservative Required Actions, a required residual heat removal-shutdown cooling (RHR-SDC) subsystem may be inoperable. In this case, Required Actions A.2.1 through A.2.4 do not adequately address the concerns relating to coolant circulation and heat removal. Pursuant to LC0 3.0.6, the RHR-SDC ACTIONS would not be entered. Therefore, Required Action A.2.5 is provided to direct declaring RHR-SDC incperable, which results in taking the appropriate RHR-SDC ACTIONS.
The Completion Time of immediately is consistent with the required times for actions requiring prompt attention. The restoration of the required distribution subsystems should be comsleted as quickly as possible in order to minimize the time tie plant safety systems may be without power.
