If it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of those responsible for the acceptance of the contain-ment structure that the leakage rate can be accu-rately determined during a shorter test period, the agreed-upon shorter period may be used.

Prior to initial operation, integrated leak rate tests must be performed at 49.1 and 25 psig (with the 25 psig test being performed prior to the 49.1 psig test) to establish the allowable leak rate (in percent of containment volume per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />) at 25 psig as the lesser of the following values:

e.

Except for the initial ILRT, all ILRT's shall be performed without any pre-liminary leak detection surveys and leak repairs being performed between the containment inspection and the performance of the ILRT.

If the acceptance criteria as specified in Section 4.7.A.2.d cannot be met during an ILRT, the ILRT shall be declared a failure and one of the following methods shall be used to perform a subsequent ILRT.

(1) If the post-repair leakage cannot be measured by local leak rate test methods, the identified leakage paths shall be repaired.

The subsequent ILRT shall be completed with the repaired leakage paths in service and the ILRT results shall meet the acceptance criteria specified in Section 4.7.A.2.d.

(2) If the post-repair leakage can be determined by local leak rate test methods, those leakage paths may be isolated or repaired during the ILRT.

For each leakage path that remains isolated during the subsequent ILRT, local leakage rates shall be measured after repairs are made.

The post-repair minimum pathway local leakage rates shall be added to the measured ILRT and the results shall meet the

acceptance criteria of Section 4.7.A.2.d.

The minimum pathway leakage is the smaller leakage rate of in-series valves tested individually, one-half the leakage rate for in-series valves tested simultaneously by pressurizing between the valves, and the combined leakage rate for valves tested in parallel.

Local leak rate tests (LLRT's) shall be performed on the primary containment testable penetrations and isolation valves in accordance with Tables 3.7.2, 3.7.3, & 3.7.4 at a pressure of 49.1 psig (except for the main steam isolation valves, see below) each operating cycle, but in no case at intervals greater than two years.

Bolted, double-gasketed seals shall be tested whenever the seal is closed after being opened and at least once per operating cycle, but in no case at intervals greater than two years.

The Main Steamline isola-tion valves shall be tested at a pressure of 25 psig for leakage during each refueling outage, but in no case at intervals greater than two years.

If a total leakage rate of 11.5 scf/hr for any one main steamline isolation valve is exceeded, repairs ~and retest shall be performed 4

These stop-check valves serve as block valves to allow testing of the outboard check valve.

The check function of these valves is not leak tested.

This applies to the following valves:

Check Valve 13-9 Check Valve 23-12 Check Valve 23-13 Check Valve 13-10 (16)

Gate valves tested in the reverse direction, since block valves and test connections necessary for " forward" testing do not exist.

Although these valves do not meet the " factor of ten" criteria described in Note 10, substantial margin does exist as indicated below:

Valve Normal Force Ratio MO-14-70 4.0 MO-23-58 1.2 MO-13-41 2.6 This is an exemption to the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J.

These valves will remain covered following all accidents.

Leakage in the proper direction through all valves is included in the Type A test results.

Leakage through MO-23-58 would be into a closed system designed to handle contaminated fluids following an accident per NUREG-0737, Item III.D.l.l.

PBAPS NOTES FOR TABLES 3.7.2 THROUGH 3.7.4 (Cont'd)

Any leakage through these valves will be into closed systems designed to remain operable and to handle contaminated fluids after an accident.

The integrity of these closed systems is assured by the leakage reduction and maintenance program developed in response to NUREG-0737, Item III.D.l.l.

These valves do not serve a safety function to limit the release of radioactivity to the environment.

Any leakage out of these systems will be into the reactor building, thus facilitating collection and treatment.

Individual valves on the CRD hydraulic control units are not Type C tested.

This is an exemption to 10 CPR 50, Appendix J.

Leakage is tested during the Type A and reactor vessel hydrostatic testing.

(19)

The TIP shear valve is not Type C tested because squib detonation is required for closure.

This is an exemption to 10 CFR 50, Appendix J.

These valves are located in small diameter (3/8") tubing lines. The possible leakage paths which include these valves are tested during the Type A tests.

A' 3.7.A & 4.7.A BASES (Cont'd.)

The primary containment leak rate test frequency is based on maintaining adequate assurance that the leak rate remains within the specification.

The leak rate test frequency is based on the NRC guide for developing leak rate testing and surveillance of reactor containment vessels.

The method for correcting measured containment integrated leakage rates based upon local leakage measurements, taken after repairs are made to identified excessive leakage paths, provides a conservative assessment of containment leakage by ensuring that the containment integrated leakage rate satisfies the acceptance criteria of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, once the testing is complete.

The penetration and air purge piping leakage test frequency, along with the containment leak rate tests, is adequate to allow detection of leakage trends.

Whenever a bolted double-gasketed penetration is broken and remade, the space between the gaskets is pressurized to determine that the seals are performing properly.

It is expected that the majority of the leakage from valves, penetrations and seals would be into the reactor building.

However, it is possible that leakage into other parts of the facility could occur.

Such leakage paths that may affect significantly the consequences of accidents are to'be minimized.

The Main Steamline Isolation Valves (MSIV's) are angled in the main steam lines in order to afford better sealing in the direction of accident pressure.

This being the case, local leak rate testing at a reduced pressure of 25 psig results in a conservative determination of the actual leakage through these valves.

The 11.5 scf/hr acceptance criteria is effective and reliable in determining the status of the l

MSIV's and in verifying that substantial degradation of these l

valves has not occurred since the last Integrated Leakage Rate Test (ILRT).

The 11.5 scf/hr criteria is likewise conservative because of the reduced test pressure.

Additionally, the leakage path through the MSIV's is included during an ILRT; and therefore, the effect of this leakage on containment integrity is taken into account.

For these reasons, the leakage through the MSIV's is excluded from the limit of 0.6 La for the combined leakage rate for penetrations and valves subject to local leak rate tests.

4 3.7.A & 4.7.A BASES (Cont'd.)

Table 3.7.4 identifies certain isolation valves that are tested by pressurizing the volume between the inboard and outboard isolation valves.

This results in conservative test results since the inboard valve, if a-globe valve listed in Note (11) for Tables 3.7.2 through 3.7.4, will be tested such that the test pressure is tending to lift the globe off its seat.

I I

The primary containment pre-operational test pressures are based upon the calculated primary containment pressure response in the event of a loss-of-coolant accident.

The peak drywell pressure would be about 49.1 psig which would rapidly reduce to 27 psig following the pipe break.

Following the pipe break, the suppression chamber pressure rises to 27 psig, equalizes with drywell pressure and therefore, rapidly decays with the drywell pressure decay.

The design pressure of the drywell and suppression chamber is 56 psig.

Based on the calculated containment pressure response discussed above, the primary containment pre-operational test pressures were chosen.

Also, based on the primary containment pressure response and the fact that the drywell and suppression chamber function as a unit, the primary containment will be tested as a unit rather than the individual components separately.
