.TSCR No.187' 4.0 Ho Significant' Hazards Consideration-I GPUN has determined thatithis TSCR poses-no significant hazards-consideration as defined in 10CFR50.92 in that operation of TMI-l in accordance with the' proposed changes'will not:

1. Involve:a significant: increase in the probability or consequences of-any accident previously evaluated.- The.

probability of occurrence or'the consequences of previously_

evaluated accidents are not affected b'y these changes because the majority of the changes.are administrative in nature, or serves to conform to existing regulations which do not affect the plant configuration or operation.

~

2. Operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed Technical Specification changes would not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident _from any previously evaluated. As stated above, these changes are administrative in nature, conform to existing regulations.
3. Operation of the facility in accordance'with the proposed changes would not involve a.significant reduction in the margin of safety. The administrative changes do not reduce the margin of safety because'of the nature of such changes which serve to provide additional clarity or enhanced understanding of existing Technical Specifications and l

bases statements.

The propored amendment combines Examples (i), and (vii) of amendments that are c1nsidered not likely to involve significant hazards considerat wn (48 FR 14870) in that the changes are purely ,

administrative; and, serves to make the license conform to changes in the regulations.

5.0 Implementation It is requested that this amendment become effective 60 days after issuance to allow for implementation of any procedure changes that are requireo.

6.0 Amendment Fee (10 CFR 170.21)

1 8 Elases (Continued)

Although some leak rates on the order of gallons per minute may be -

tolerable from a dose point of view, it is recognized that leaks in the order of drops per minute through any of the barriers of the primary system could be indicative of materials failure such as by stress corrosion cracking. If depressurization, isolation, and/or other safety measures are not taken promptly, these small leaks could develop into much larger leaks, possibly into a gross pipe rupture. Therefore, the nature and location of the leak, as well as the magnitude of the leakage, must be considered in the safety evaluation.

When reactor coolant leakage occurs to the Reactor Building, it is ultimately conducted to the Reactor Building sump. Although the reactor coolant is safely contained, the gaseous components in it escape to the Reactor Building atmosphere. There, the gaseous components become a potential hazard to plant personnel, during inspection tours within the Reactor Building, and to the general public whenever the Reactor Building atmosphere is periodically purged to the environment.

When reactor coolant leakage occurs to the Auxiliary Building, it is collected in the Auxiliary Building sump. The gases escaping from i reactor coolant leakage within the Auxiliary Building will be collected in the Auxiliary and Fuel Handling Building exhaust ventilation system and discharged to the environment via the unit's Auxiliary and Fuel Handling Building vent. Since the majority of this leakage occurs within confined, separately ventilated cubicles within the Auxiliary Building, it incurs very little hazard to' plant personnel.

In regard to the surveillance specification 4.2.7, the isolation valves may be tested at a reduced pressure in accordance with the Franklin Research Center Report titled " Primary Coolant System Pressure Isolation Valves for TMI-1" (FRC Task 212) dated October 24, 1980, Section 2.2.2.

When reactor coolant leakage occurs to the nuclear services closed cooling water system, the leakage, both gaseous and liquid, is contained because the nuclear services closed cooling water syrtem surge tank is a closed tank that is maintained above atmospheric pressure. The leakage would be detected by the nuclear services closed cooling water system monitor and by purge tank liquid level, both of which alarm in the control room. Since the nuclear services closed cooling water system's only potential contact with reactor coolant is in the sample coolers, it is considered not to be a hazard. However, if reactor coolant leakage to this receptor occurred and the surge tank's relief valve discharged, radioactive gases could be discharged to the environment via the Unit's l auxiliary and fuel handling building vent.

Order dtd. 4/20/81 3-13a

4 Bases (Continu'ed)

When reactor coolant leakage occurs to the intermediate cooling closed cooling water system, the leakage is indicated by both the intermediate cooling water monitor (RM-L9) and the intermediate cooling closed cooling water surge tank liquid level indicator, both of which alarm in the control room. Reactor coolant leakage to this receptor ultimately could result in radioactive gas leaking to the environment via the unit's auxiliary and fuel handling building vent by way of the atmospheric vent on the surge tank.

When reactor coolant leakage occurs to either of the decay heat closed cooling water systems, the leakage is indicated by the affected system's radiation monitor (RM-L2 or Rii-L3 for system A and B, respectively) and surge tank liquid level indicator, all four of which alarm ic. the control room. Reactor coolant leakage to this receptor ultimately could result in radioactive gas leaking to the environment.via the unit's auxiliary and fuel handling building vent by way of the atmospheric vent on the surge tank of the affected

. system.

Assuming the existence 'he maximum allowable activity in the reactor coolant, a reactor coolant leakage rate of less than one gpm unidentified leakage within the reactor or auxiliary building or any of the closed cooling water systems indicated above, is a conserva-tive limit on what is allowable before the guide lines of 10 CFR 20 would be exceeded. This is shown as follows: if the specific activity of the ceactor coolant is 130/E uCi/ml and the gaseous portion of it (as identified by UFSAR Table 11.1-2) is discharged to l the environment via the unit's auxiliary and fuel handling building vent, the yearly whole body dose resulting from this activity at the site boundary, using an annual average X/Q = 4.5 x 10-6 sec/m3, is 0.34 rem. This may be compared with the 10 CFR 20 guideline of 0.5 rem / year whole body dose.

When the reactor coolant leaks to the secondary sides of either steam generator, all the gaseous components and a very small fraction of the ionic components are carried by the steam to the main condenser. The gaseous components exit the main condenser via the unit's vacuum pump which discharges.to the condenser vent past the condenser off-gas monitor. The condenser off-gas monitor will detect any radiation, above background, within the condenser vent.

However, buildup of radioactive solids in the secondary side of a steam generator and the presence of radioactive ions in the conden-sate can be tolerated to only a small degree. Therefore, the appear-ance of activity in the condenser off-gas, or any other possible in-dications of primary to secondary leakage such as water inventories, condensate demineralized artivity, etc., shall be considered positive indication of primary to secondary leakage and steps shall be taken to determine the source and quantity of the leakage.

' Gases The safety function enhanced by this venting capability is core cooling. For events beyond the present design basis, this venting capability will substantially. increase the plants ability to deal with large quantitles of noncondensible gas.which could interfere with natural ~ circulation (i.e., core cooling).

The. reactor vessel head vent (RC-V42 & RC-V43 in series) provides the capability of venting noncondensible' gases from the majority.

of the reactor vessel head as well as the Reactor Coolant hot legs (to the elevation.of the top of the outlet nozzles) and cold legs-(through vessel internals leakage paths, to the elevation of the top

! of the inlet nozzles). This vent.is routed to containment atmosphere.

Venting for the pressurizer steam space (RC-V28 and RC-V44 in series) has been provided to assure that the pressurizer is available for Reactor Coolant System pressure and. volume control.

This vent is routed to the Reactor Coolant Drain Tank.,

Additional venting capability has been provided for the Reactor Coolant ~ hot leg high points (RC-V40A, B, RC-41A, B), which normally cannot be vented through the Reactor vessel head vent or pressurizer steam-space vent. These vents relieve to containment atmosphere through a rupture disk (set at low pressure).

The above. vent systems are seismically designed and environmentally qualified in accordance with the May 23, 1980 Commission Order and  !

Memorandum per.NUREG-0737, Item II.B.l. The high point vents do not fall within the scope of 10 CFR 50.49, since the vents are not relied upon during or following any design basis. event. The power operated valves (2 in series in each flow path) which are powered from emergency buses fail closed on loss of power. All vent valves for the reactor vessel head vent, pressurizer vent and loop B high point vent are powered from the class lE "B" bus. The vent valves for the loop A high point vent are powered from the class IE "A" bus. The power operated valves are controlled in the Control Room.

The individual vent path lines are sized so that an inadvertent valve opening will not constitute a LOCA as defined in 10 CFR 50.46(c)(1). These design features provide a high degree of assurance'that these vent paths will be available when needed, and that inadvertent operation or failures will not significantly hamper the safe operation of the plant.

. ' 3.3.3 Exceptions to 3.3.2 shall be as follows:

a. Both core flood tanks shall be operable at all times.
b. Both the motor operated valves associated with the core flood tanks shall be fully opened at all times.
c. One reactor building cooling fan and associated cooling unit shall be permitted to be out-of-service for seven days.

3.3.4 Prior to initiating maintenance on any of the components, the duplicate (redundant) component shall be tested to assure operability.

Bases The requirements of Specification 3.3.1 assure that, before the reactor can be made critical, adequate engineered safety features are operable. Two engineered safeguards makeup pumps, two decay heat removal pumps and two decay heat removal coolers (along with their respective cooling water systems components) are specified. However, only one of each is necessary to supply emergency coolant to the reactor in the event of a loss-of-coolant accident. Both core flooding tanks are required because a single core flooding tank has insufficient inventory to reflood the core for hot and cold line breaks.

The operability of the borated water storage tank (BWST) as part of i the ECCS ensures that a sufficient supply of borated water is  ;

available for injection by the ECCS in the event of a LOCA l (Reference 2). The limits on BWST minimum volume and boron concentration ensure that 1) sufficient water is available within contain*nent to permit recirculation cooling flow to the core, and 2) the reactor will remain at least one percent suberitical at 70 F without any control rods in the core following mixing of the BWST and RCS water volumes (Reference 3). j J

The contained water veiume limit of 350,000 gallons includes an ]

allowance for water not usable because of tank discharge location. l The limits on contained water volume, Na0H concentration and baron l concentration ensure a pf. value of between 8.5 and 11.0 of the l solution sprayed within containment after a design basis accident.

The minimum pH of 8.5 assures that iodine will remain in solution while the maximum pH of 11.0 minimizes the potential for caustic damage to mechanical systems and components. Redundant heaters i maintain the borated water supply at a temperature greater than 40 F.

3-23

  • The post-accident reactor building emergency cooling may be accomplished by three emergency cooling units, by two spray systems, or by a combination of one emergency cooling unit and one spray system. The specified requirements assure that the required post-accident components are available.

The iodine removal function of the reactor building spray system requires one spray pump and sodium hydroxide tank contents.

The spray system utilizes common suction lines with the decay heat removal system. If a single train of equipment is removed from either system, the other train must be assured to be operable in each system.

When the reactor is critical, maintenance is allowed per Specification 3.3.2 and 3.3.3 provided requirements in Specification 3.3.4 are met which assure operability of the duplicate components.

The specified maintenance times are a maximum. Operability of the specified components shall be based on the results of testing as required by Technical Specification 4.5.

An allowable maintenance period of up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> may be utilized if the operability of equipment redundant to that removed from service is demonstrated immediately prior to removal.

In the event that the need for emergency core cooling should occur, operation of one makeup pump, one decay heat removal pump, and both core flood tanks will protect the core. In the event of a reactor coolant system rupture their operation will limit the peak clad temperature to less than 2,300*F and the metal-water reaction to that representing less than 1 percent of the clad.

Two nuclear service river water pumps and two nuclear service closed cycle cooling pumps are required for normal operation. The normal operating requirements are greater than the emergency requirements following a loss-of-coolant.

Bases-High Reactor Building Pressure The basis for the 30 psig and 4 psig setpoints for.the high pressure-signal is to establish a setting which would be reached in adequate time in the event of a LOCA, cover a spectrum of break sizes and yet be far enough.above normal operation maximum internal' pressures to-prevent spurious initiation.

Low Reactor Coolant System Pressure The basis for'the 1600 and 500 psig low reactor coolant pressure setpoint for high and low pressure injection initiation is to establish a value which is high enough such that protection is provided for the entire spectrum to break sizes and is far enough below normal operating pressure to prevent spurious initiation.

Bypass of HPI below 1775 psig and LPI below 925 psig, prevents ECCS actuation during normal system cooldown.

Bases The emergency core cooling systems are the principal reactor safety features in the event of a loss of coolant accident. The removal of heat from the core provided by these systems is designed to limit core damage.

The low pressure injection pumps are tested singularly for operability by opening the borated water storage tank outlet valves and the' bypass valves in the borated water storage tank fill line.

This allows-water to be pumped from the borated water storgage tank through each of the injection lines and back to the tank.

The minimum acceptable HPI/LPI flow assures proper flow and flow split'between injection legs.

With the. reactor shutdown, the valves in each core flooding lines are checked for operability by reducing the reactor coolant system pressure until the indicated level in the core flood tanks verify that the check and isolation valves have opened.

b. The test will be considered satisfactory if the valves have completed their expected travel as evidenced by the control board component operating lights, and either the station computer or local verification.

Bases The reactor building cooling and isolation systems and reactor building spray system are designed to remove the heat in the containment atmosphere to prevent the building pressure from exceeding the design pressure.

The delivery capability of one reactor building spray pump at a time can be tested by opening the valve in the line from the borated water storage tank, opening the corresponding valve in the test line, and starting the corresponding pump.

With the pumps shut down an0 the borated water storage tank outlet closed, the reactor building spray injection valves can each be opened and closed by the operator action. With the reactor building spray inlet valves closed, low pressure air can be blown through the test connections of the reactor building spray nozzles to demonstrate that the flow paths are open.

The equipment, piping, valves and instrumentation of the reactor building cooling system are arranged so that they can be visually inspected. TM cooling units and associated piping are located outside the secondary concrete shield. Personnel can enter the reactor building during power operations to inspect and maintain this equipment.

The reactor building fans are normally operating periodically, constituting the test that these fans are operable.

4.15- MAIN STEAM SYSTEM INSERVICE INSPECTION Applicability This. tschnical specification applies to the inservice ' inspection of those welds in the main steam system identified as Numbers.3, 4, and 5 of Figure 6, Supplement 2, Part IX and Number 3 of Figure 9, Supplement 2, Part IX.

Objective The objective of.this inservice inspection program is to provide assurance of the continuing integrity of that portion of the main steam system in which a postulated failure would produce pressures in excess of the compartment wall and/or capacities.

Specification 4.15.1. The four weld joints identified above shall be 100 percent ultrasonically inspected in accordance with the ASME Code,Section XI, Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Reactor Coolant Systems dated January 1, 1970 as modified by the Winter 1970 Addenda and the provisions of Appendix IX-3400 of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Inspections are to be performed prior to.

startup and subsequently at 3-1/2 year intervals (or nearest refueling outage).

Prior to initial plant operation a preoperational inspection of the identified weld joints will be performed and any data acquired will be recorded to form a baseline on which to compare results of subsequent inspections.

Upon completion of several inspection cycles, the technical benefit of the inspection program frequency will be reviewed. The conclusions of this review shall be submitted to the NRC for evaluation. l Bases Calculations reveal that postulated breaks in the main steam lines at the containment penetrations in small compartments No. 2 and No.

5 could produce pressures in excess of wall and/or slab capacities.

Applies to Reactor Internals Vent.. Valves.

Objective-

.To verify that no reactor internals vent valve is stuck in the open position and *. hat each valve continues to exhibit freedom of-movement.

Specification Item- . Test Frequency 4.16.1 Reactor Internals Demonstrate Operability ' Each Refueling Vent Valves By: Shutdown l

-a. Conducting a remote visual inspection of.

visually accessible sur-faces of the-valve body and disc sealing faces and evaluating any observed surface irregu-larities.

b. Verifying that the valve is not stuck in an open position, and
c. Verifying through manual actuation that the valve is fully open with a force of < 400 lbs. (applied vertically upward).

Bases Verifying vent valve freedom of movement insures that coolant flow does not bypass the core through reactor internals vent valves during operation _and therefore insures the conservatism of Core Protection Safety limits as delineated in Figures 2.1-1 and 2.1-3, and the flux / flow trip setpoint.

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (Continued)

c. Refueling Outage Inspections At least once each refueling cycle during shutdown, a visual inspection shall be performed of all safety related snubbers attached to sections of safety systems piping that have experienced unexpected, potentially damaging transients as determined from a review of operational data and a visual inspection of the systems,
d. Visual Inspection Acceptance Criteria Visual inspections shall verify: (1) that there are no visible indications of damage or impaired operability and (2) attachments to the foundation or supporting strJCture are secure. Snubbers which appear inoperable as a result of visual inspections may be determined OPERABLE for the purpose of establishing the next visual inspection in-terval, provided that: (1) the cause of the rejection is clearly established and remedied for that particular snubber and for other snubbers that may be generically susceptible, and (2) the affected snubber is functionally tested in the as found condition and determined OPERABLE per Specification 4.17-lf. When the reservoir outlet port of a snubber is found to be uncovered by fluid, the snubber shall only be declared operable if functional testing in both extension and retraction directions is satisfactory and an engineering evaluation concludes that this snubber is operable.
e. Functional Tests
  • At least once each refueling interval during shutdown, a representative sample of snubbers shall be tasted using one of the following sample plans. The sample plan shall be selected prior to the test period Ord cannot be changed during the test period. The NRC Regicaal Administrator shall be notified in writing of the sample plan selected prior to the test period, or the sample plan used in the prior test period shall be used:
1) At least 107. of the total each type of snubber in use -

in the plant shall be functionally tested either in- I place or in a bench test. For each snubber of a type that does not meet the functional test acceptance criteria of Specification 4.17.lf, an additional 107.

of that type of snubber shall be functionally tested until no more failures are found or until all snubbers of that type have been functionally tested; or The four 550,000 lb reactor coolant pump snubbers are not included. The functional test program for reactor coolant pump I snubbers is implemented in accordance with the schedule and other requirements of the snubber testing program.

4.19.4 Acceptance Criteria

a. As used in'this Specification:
1. Imperfection means an exception to the dimensions, finish or contour of a tube from that required by fabrication drawing or specifications. Eddy current testing indications below 20% of the nominal tube wal thickness, if detectable, may be considered as imperfections.
2. Degradation means a service-induced cracking, wastage, wear or general corrosion occurring on either inside or outside of.a tube.
3. Degraded Tube means a tube containing imperfections 20% of the nominal wall thickness caused by degradation.
4.  % Degradation means the percentage of the tube wall thickness affected or removed by degradation.
5. Defect means an imperfection of such severity that it exceeds the repair limit. A tube containing a defect is defective.
6. Repair Limit means the extent of degradation at or beyond which the tube shall be repaired or removed from service because it may become unserviceable prior to the next inspection.

This limit is equal to 40% of the nominal tube wall thickness.

7. Unserviceable describes the condition of a tube if it leaks or contains a defect large enough to affect its structural integrity in the event of an Operating Basis Earthquake, a loss of coolant accident, or a steam line or feedwater line break as specified in i

4.19.3.c., above,

8. Tube Inspection means an inspection of the steam generator tube from the bottom of the upper tubesheet completely to the top of the lower tubesheet, except as permitted by 4.19.2.b.2, above.

a. ~ Following'the completion of each inservice inspection of1 steam generator tubes, the number of tubes repaired-or removed from service in each steam generator shall

-be reported to the NRC within 15 days.

b. The complete results of the steam generator tube inservice inspection shall be reported'to the NRC L

'within 3 months following completion of the inspection.-

This report shall include:

1. Number and extent of tubes inspected.
2. Location and percent of wall-thickness penetration for each indication of an imperfect' ion.

'3. Identification of tubes repaired or removed from service.

c. .Results of steam generator tube inspections which fall into Category C-3 require notification in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72 prior to resumption of plant operation. .The written followup of this. report shall provide a description of investigations conducted to determine the cause of the tube degradation and corrective measures taken to prevent recurrence in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73.

Bases' The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained.

The program for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes is based on modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1. In-service inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to maintain surveillance of the conditions of the tubes in the event'that there is evidence of mechanical damage or progressive .

I degradation due to design, manufacturing errors, er inservice conditions. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing also pr7vides a means of characterizing the nature and cause of any tube i l

degradation to that corrective measures can be taken. l Amendment No. 47, 83, 91, 103, 129 l 4-81

r l .

Bases (Continued)

The Unit is expected to be operated in a manner such that the primary and secondary coolant will be maintained within those chemistry limits found to result in negligible corrosion of the steam generator tubes. If the primary or secondary coolant chemistry is not maintained within these chemistry limits, localized corrosion may likely result.

The extent of steam generator tube leakage.due to cracking would be limited by the secondary coolant activity, Specification 3.1.6.3.

The extent of cracking during plant operation would be limited by the limitatior, of total steam generator tube leakage between the primary coolant system and the secondary coolant system (primary-to-secondary leakage = 1 gpm). Leakage in excess of this limit will require plant shutdown and an unschedu'ed inspection, during which the leaking tubes will be located and y aired or removed from service.

Wastage-type defects are unlikely with proper chemistry treatment of the primary or the secondary coolant. However, even if a defect would develop in service, it will be found during scheduled in-service steam generator tube examinations. Steam generator tube irispections of operating plants have demonstrated the capability to reliably detect degradation that has penetrated 20% of the original tube wall thickness.

Reaoval from service by plugging, or repair by kinetic expansion, sleeving, or other methods, will be required for degradation equal to or in excess of 40% of the tube nominal wall thickness.

I Where experience in similar plants with similar water chemistry, as documented by USNRC Bulletins / Notices, indicate critical areas to be inspected, at least 50% of the tubes inspected should be from these critical. areas. First sample inspections sample size may be modified subject to NRC review and approval.
