PACKAGE NUMBER 3 DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION OF CHANGE n

The attached Technica,1 Specification pages all contain l

typographical errors. The following changes are being requested:

,.i (1) On page 3/4 3-16 and 3/4 3-17, Table 3.3.2-1, remove the "(a)"

just af ter " system" in the column heading " Minimum Operable

{

' Channels per Trip System". The "(a)" that appears adjacent to the MINIMUM OPERABLE CHAMELS PER TRIP SYSTEM heading on CPS'

. Technical Specification pages 3/4.3-15 and 3/4 3-17 is a i

typographical error handed down'from the draft. Technical l

Specifications. The purpose of note."(a)" was to allow a channel (s) to be placed in an inoperable status (for up to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />) for performing. required surveillance (s) without having i

to place.the' trip system in the. tripped cond1 tion "provided at j

least one other OPERABLE channel in the' same trip ~ system is uonitoring that parameter." Note "(a)" clearly applies for one-out-of-two twice logic, but is not appropriate for one-out-of-two logic. That is, note "(a)" would be applicable to trip channels having a "2" listed in the MINIMUM OPERABLE

. CHANNELS PER TRIP SYSTEM column, but it would not be appropriate for trip channels having an "1" listed in the column. For the latter, note "(k)" is appropriate in the one-channel-per-trip system configuration having redundant-we trip systems.

I Since note "(a)" is applicable in some ense, while note "(k)"

'l (or no ' note) is applicable. in others, the "(a)" was removed 1

(or should have been removed) from the column heading to be placed adjacent to t,he number "2" representing the number of operable channels per trip system for each applicable trip channel.

(Note "(k)" was also applied'as appropriate.)

l Leaving the "(a)" next co.the column heading was clearly'a typographical error.

(Leaving it in place is either redundant or could result 1n an incorrect application of the noted provisions depending on the trip channel logic.)

(2) On page 3/4 3-82, Table 3.3.7.4-l', Item 7 and 8 should read 1C61-R501 and IC61-Rf02 respectively. A recent site walkdown l

of the Remote ShutLcsm Panel drywell temperature instrumentation verified that IC61-R501 and IC61-R$02 have been identified as the uppet drywell temperature and lower This is drywell temperature instruments, respectively.

. opposite from what is presently specified in the CPS Techt.ical l

Specifications under Table 3.3.6.4-1.

The instrument t

equipment numbers should therefore be transposed to correct this typographical error.

to U-601048 Page 7 of 157 (3) On p. 3/4 6-33, Table 3.6.4-1, delete the third "41" listed

[

o for Item 18 under the MAXIMUM ISOLATION TIME column.

i Currently, two "4'1"s appear in'the MAXIMUM ISOLATION TIvr column for valve 1E51-7064. Two rows or lines were needed to list all of the characters identifying the isolation signals l

applicable to valve 1E51-F064. Only one line.(per valve) is needed however to specify the maximum isolation time since only one value for the maximum isolation time is applicable to a valve. The maximum isolhtion time value (41 seconds), was j

inadvertently repeated on the line or row containing the "F,X" l!

isolation signal characters. This is a typographical error i

that was introduced when the Full Power Operating License for l

Clinton was prepared and issued.

(The typo did not exist in the low power license.) The extra "41" should therefore be deleted.

4.6.6.3.c, (4). On page 3/4 6-71,, under Survef11ance Requirement delete the heading "Make Up Filter System".

These words are

-l The not applicable to the Standby Gas Treatment System.

. phrase may have appeared because this portion of the Standby Gas Treatment System Ev pacification is similar in format to the f

corresponding section of the Control Room Ventilation System Specification (4.7.2.d).

The latter may have been used originally as an example during the preparation of the draft Technical Specifications or the phrase may have just been l

Th_

carried-over (by mistake) from the latter to the forrer.

phrase is not applicable to Specification 4.~6.6.3.c since the Standby Gas Treatment System (unlike the Control Room Ventilation System) only operates in an exhaust mode _of operation and, by design, does not contain a make-up system.

The inclusion of the noted phrase in Specification 4.6.6.3.c l

is a typographical error; the phrase should thus be deleted.

(5) Under ACTION a.1.g (Specification 3.4.1.1) on p. 3/4 4-2.

I l

change "4.4.1.1.2 " to "4.4.1.1.4."

ACTION a.1.g under Specification 3.4.1.1 currently and It erroneously refers to Surveillance Requirement 4.4.1.1.2.

should instead refer to Surveillance Requirement 4.4.1.1.4

}

I This typographical error was made when the specifications permitting single-loop operation were incorporated into the j

F 11 Power CPS Technical Specifications. The order (and

{

consequert.ly, the numbering) of the Surveillance Requirements j

was different in the original submittal than it appears now.

{

The order now is appropriate, but the number of the l

Surveillance Requirement required to be performed under ACTION l

a.1.g should have been correspondingly changed.

to U-601048 1

Page 8 of 157 It is clear the Surveillance Requirement 4.4.1.1.4 is

-associated with the noted ACTION based at least on the 4

congruity in applicability. That is, they are both applicable l

with one recirculation loop not in operation and if thermal power is less than or equal to 30% of rated thermal power or

'the recirculation loop flow in the' operating loop is less than-or equal.to 50% of rated loop flew.

Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license

]

(Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards l

a consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated;

)

(2) create the. possibility of a new or different kind of accident i

from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

(1) The proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the possibility or consequences of an accident previously evaluated because these changes are all corrections of typographical errors and do not affect any previous analyses nor do they change or affect the intent or implementation of the applicable Technical Specifications.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of ai new J

or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated

.)

because the scope of these proposed changes is limited to the correction of typographical errors. None of the changes affects the plant design or operation.

(3) The proposed change'does not involve a significant reduction in a marg 1n of safety because no changes to any margin of q

safety will result from the correction of these typographical 4

errors.

Background

3 1

According to standard instrument setpoint methodology, the Determination of an instrument trip setpoint begins with the analytical limit j

established as part of a safety analysis or design basis. Instrument.,

l loop accuracy and calibration capability is then taken into account to establish an allowable value (or Technical Specification limit as referred to in the G.E. Design Specification Data Sheets). A drift allowance is accounted for.co determine the trip setpoint.

For an increasing trip function in which the trip should occur before ij the process variable or parameter increases to a certain value, a "s "

sign appears'in front of the value specified in the TRIP SETPOINT and E

ALLOWABLE VALUE columns in the Technical Specification table.

(Similarly, for a decreasing trip function, a "e" sign appears in front of. TRIP SETPOINT and ALLOWABLE VALUE.) Operation with a trip set less

. conservative than its TRIP SET?0IMT but vithin the ALLOWABLE VALUE is peruitted on the basis that the difference between the TRIP SETPOINT rnd ALLOWABLE VALUE is less than or equal to the drif t-allowance assumed for

~

the instrument.

It is-the ALLOWABLE VALUE that is specified as the Technical Specification acceptance criteria identified in the surveillance procedures for the channel calibration and channel-functional test / trip-unit calibration. The resuleing operating band is single-ended in that the upper.(or lower) limit is bounded by the ALLOWABLE VALUE (as determined by the methed described above).

I The values specified in the design documents are usually specified according to this format. That is, a Trip Setpoint and an Allowable t

Value-(or Technical Specification limit) are usually specified with inequality signs appropriately applied.

Description and Reason for Change Many of the time limits specified for the timers in the applicabla design documents are not presented according to the above-described format. Often only a minimum and maximum time-out value or an acceptabla band is specified. Scme values are typically not specified with respect to an analytical limit and engineering judgement sometimes provides a basis for a time limit.

timers are independent of the process loop in that they are Furthermore, independent of the assumptions or allowances assumed for set determination of the trip setpoint with respect to the process variable.

(

Because timers must be given special consideration in placing them in a format geared'to process instrumentation, the design bases'for the j

timers listed in Technical Specification 3.3.2, Table 3.3.2-2, Items 3.b, 4.b and 4.1 were reviewed to determine if the " a " or "4 " were appropriately applied to the specified va'ues.

This review determined that the following changes'should be made to the Technica.

1 Specifications for the noted timers, j

(1) For'the Reactor Water Cleanup System Isolation Differential Flow Timer (Item 3.b of Table 3.3.2-2), delete the " e" sign for the q

TRIP SETPOINT so that only a value (45 sec.) is specified. The J.1 proposed change is consistent with the design specification which

-[ l states, "the bypass timer shall be set at 45 seconds with &n m.

allowable valys of 47 seconds." The specification and the FGAR

,i j

note that the timer is provided to override the isolation during

.sW system pump and valve surge conditions. Operation with the timer less'than 45 seconds could lead P.o inadvertent Reactor Water set

' Cleanup Isolations and would therefore be discouraged for this The safety concern, however, is that an isolation occurs reason.

to preva.nt unacceptable radioactivity releases to the environment,

[

y 47 seconds is therefore justified as a' Technical Specification limit (i.e., ALLOWABLE VALUE).

f (2) For the Reactor Core Isolution Cooling System Isolation (RCIC)

Steam Line Flow - High Timer (Itam 4.b of Table 3.3 2-2), delete

- I the ".2 " sign for the TRIP SETPOINT so that only e value (3 sec.)

is specified. Change the ALLOWABLE VALUE column such that "3+10,-0 sec." is specified. From a safety standpcint, the RCIC Uteam Line l

Flow-High trip should occur'soon enougi. so that for postulated i

system pipe breaks, the system will isolate in time to prevent i

unacceptable radioactivity releaces to the environment, fee as discussed in Appendix D (Item II.K.3.15) of the FSAR, a'J-second delay is needed to preven't spurious isolations of the RCIC systec

.l due to pressure spikes which may occur during system startup.

Because the FSAR places equal emphasis on thesa conceins and in j

view of the fact that the design specification for the instrumentation specifies a " minimum setpoint" of 3 seconds and a

" maximum setpoint"'of'13 seconds for the timer, uge of the current sign in the TRIP CETPOINT column for the lower 11m2.t together "2"

uith a " 5" sign in the ALLOJABLE VALUE column for the upper limit is inappropriate. That is, both endpoints should be considered Technical Specification 11 nits so that an acceptable band is specified in the ALLOWABLE VALUE column.

1 For the RCIC Main Steam Line Tunnel TemperatureiTimer (Item 4.1 of i

f (3)

Table 3.3.2-2), delete the "d " sign for the TRIS SETPOINT so that only a value (25 min.) remains. Change the ALLOWABLE VALUE column such that "25+3,-0 min." is specified. A;n upper limit of 28 minutec is specified per the calculation performed to determine this value, but the FSAR (Section 7.6.1.4.3.3.1) states that the main steam line tunnel anbient temperature trjip is time delayed to prevent 7,CIC system isolation that could otherwise be caused by t

. Basis for No Significant Hazar s Consideration d

y According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if

. (I operation of the f acility in accordance with the proposed change would

. w (1) involve a Jignificarit increase in the probability or

,4Q./a not consequences,.af an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the 1, '

[ d. -

possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The pieposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the.

(1) probability'or consequences of an accident previously evaluated bec3use the tfm -linit values specified for the timers remain 1

unchanged. The'cimers will continue to be tested and calibrated according to plant surveillance pucedures in the same manner as that the proposed change will place additional before, except emphasis on some of the values with respect to the Technical Specification requirements.

(2) The proposed changes do not crr.te the possibility of a new or kind of ar.icf. dent fxem any previously evaluated, because i

different nochangestoplant'//r.ign,areproposedandbecausethescopeof the proposed changas are specifically directed towards achieving Technical Specification danformance to the plant design already evaluated wirA respect tn specific accident. conditions.

t The proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction in a (3) margin of safety because they are jply changes to reconcile the 7j f, < >

format of the time limits as they appear in the Technical Specif1cacion table with the design documents and bases which k'1 specify those limits. No changes to the values of the specified 3

limits are proposed.

fherefore, the proposed changes do<not involve a significant hazards i

PACKAGE NUMBER 5 The changes proposed for Technical Specifications 3/4.3.7.1 (along with j

4.11.2.7.1 and 4.11.2.7.2), 3/4.3.7.11 and 3/4.3.7.12 as indicated on l

the attached marked-up pages may be addressed as four changes. These are summarized below. A complete description, justification and basis.

for no significant hazards consideration is provided for each of the four changes (or categories of changes) on the following pages.

I (1) The first proposed change is a group of changes (summarized below) to account and allow credit to be taken for redundancy of the j

.cotmon Central Control Termina.ls (CCTs) where process radiation monitor status and indications are provided.* This is discussed in furthcr detail on the following pages.

7 1

(a) A change is proposed to include the CCTs in the OPERABILITY

{

requirements for certain radiation monitor channels required l

to be OPERABLE by the CPS Technical Specifications.

l OPERABILITY of these channels would include communication with l

either CCT.

(b) A change to the ACTIONS is proposed, as applicable, to account for inoperability of the CCTs versus inoperability of the monitor itself that provides input to the CCTs. The ACTIONS would be revised to address inoperability at two levels:

(1) ACTION to be taken if both CCTs are inoperable with respect to the applicable radiation monitor channel, (ii) ACTION to be taken if the applicable channel (s) are inoperable for reasons other than inoperability of the CCTs.

(This. level of ACTION proposed is the same as the current ACTICNs specified in the Technical j

Specifications.)

j I

(c) The CHANNEL CHECK for the applicable radiation monitors would f

be enhanced to ensure that channel communication is l

J established to the Main Control Room-CCT or Radiation

-Protection-CCT.

(The CCTs will normally be used to perform CHANNEL CHECKS since the CCTs provide channel indication and status).

The expanded CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST requirements for the (d) radiation monitors would be revised to_make the wording of the l

requirement based on the Standard Technical Specifications l

more specific and applicable to the Clinton design without changing the intent of the requirement. The changes are based on the as-built capabilities and features unique to the monitors and the CCTs used at Clinton.

t.he other One CCT (the MCR-CCT) is located in the Main Control Room; (the RP-CCT) is located in the continuously canned Radiation Protection office.

to U-601048 Page 22 of 157 l

(

(2) Under the second proposed change, the CRANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST requirement would be revised for the Liquid Radwaste Discharge Monitor. The current requirement requires a demonstration of automatic isolation of the release pathway with the monitor controls not set in the OPERATE mode. The proposed change'would delete this specific requirement since the monitor is not designed to;effect an isolation for this specific condition.

(3) 'The-third proposed change consists of specific changes to make the.

channel / instrument descriptions for the Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) Exhaust Process Radiation Monitor (PRM) agree with the HVAC Exhaust PRM descriptions since they are designed and operated in a similar manner. This is.only a word change and would not change the intent of the Specification or the manner in which the. surveillance are conducted.

l (4) The fourth change consists of several changes to ACTION 72 of Table 3.3.7.1-1 (in addition to the changes proposed for the ACTION (s) as specified in Change (1)]. The changes would make the ACTION consistent with other applicable Specifications including other ACTIONS. To support those changes related to OPERABILITY (or inoperability) of the Pre-Treatment Off-Gas process radiation monitor, changes to Specifications 4.11.2.7.1 and 4.11.2.7.2 are also proposed.

Change (1)

Background

the The radiation monitoring system at Clinton is designed such that various process (and area) radiation monitors provide their information Monitor via data links to two common Central Control Terminals (CCTs).

One CCT indication and status is provided through either of the CCTs.

(MCR-CCT) is located in the main control room and the other (RP-CCT) is located in the Radiation Protection Office.

(See FSAR sections f

7.7.1.19.7 and 7.7.1.9.5.2).

The CCTs are functionally equivalent.

Because the Radiation Protection Office is continuously manned and its the RP-CCT personnel communicate frequently with the main control room, may be considered redundant and equivalent to the MCR-CCT with respect to verifying monitor status, checking monitor indications, and i

performing surveillance on the radiation monitors.

itself is a departure from earlier plant designs in that The CCT concept each CCT is a common point for providing annunciation, indication, and status of all of the various monitors providing input to the CCT(s);

i.e., the radiation monitors are not individually annunciated by dedicated Main Control Room annunciator windows.

to U-60104S Page 23 of 157 Description and Justification for Changes Made under Change (I)

For certain radiation monitor channels, the Technical Specifications (4. 3. 7.1, 4. 3. 7.11,- 4. 3. 7.12) require that control room alarm annunciation be demonstrated as part of the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST.*

This expanded CRANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST requirement (as specified by

tnnotation to the CHANNEL FUI CTIONAL TEST frequencies specified in Tables 4.3.7.1-1, 4.3.7.11-1 and 4.3.7.12-1) placen additional emphasis on the capability to remotely annunciate an alarm condition of the appropriate monitor.

l If th. RP-CCT is considered equivalent to the MCR-CCT, then this requirement should not refer specifically to " control room alarm ann'unciation," and the requirement should be changed to refer to the IICR-CCT or the RP-CCT.

That'is, inoperability of one CCT does not constitute inoperability of a monitor since the redundant CCT can provide the necessary status and indications.

Since the CRANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST requirement for the applicable

-radiation monitors places special emphasis on the capability of the monitors to previde remote alarm annunciation, OPERABILITY of a radiation monitor channel will be extended to include communication from t he monitor to either of the CCTs. This would be effected by the incorporation of-a note affixed to the MINIMUM CHANNELS OPERABLE requirements for these channels.

(See Note (b) for Table 3.3.7.1-1, rote (a) for Table 3.3.7.11-1, and Note (a) for Table 3.3.7.12-1).

A radiation monitor channel must be considered inoperable (in view of the above discussion) if both CCTs are iroperable even though the nonitor itself may still be operable and still capable of providing local alarm annunciation. Because the CCTs (either one) provide annunciation, indication and status for all of the applicable radiation uenitors, some level of ACTION must be provided for the unlikely event

-that both CCTs are completely incapabic of providing annunciation, indication and status. The ACTION should be prudent and appropriate for the number of monitors that would be affected. The current ACTIONS (ACTIONS 72 and 73 for Table 3.3.7.1-1, ACTION 111 for Table 3.3.7.11-1, and ACTION 121 for Table 3.3.7.12-1) should therefore be revised. Under the propcsed change (s), each ACTION should be split to provide ACTION with both CCTs inoperable and to provide ACTION with an applicable-nonitor channel that is otherwise inoperable (i.e., due to a problum with the detector / monitor itself). The former ACTION would ensure that the monitor itself is operable (and not in an alarm state) by checking j

local status / indication. This check would be performed at a frec.uency 4.ppropriate to the monitor function yet commensurate with the ssmpling-imd analysis that would otherwise have to be performed. Ve rifying the nonitor is still working and checking its alarm status is preferred to I

collecting and analyzing a sample at least for the period when both CCTs l

Applicable to items 3 and 4.a of Table 4.3.7.1-1; items 1.a, 2.a, 2.b and 2.c of Table 4.3.7.11-1; items 1.a. 1.b, 2.a and 2.c of Table 4.3.7.12-1.

are inoperable.** If the monitor / detector itself is determined to be inoperable, then the latter ACTION.(which would be equivalent to the ACTION that currently appears in the Technical Specifications) would be I

placed into effect by performing the. sampling and analysis as' required.

Since the CCT(s) provide indication and status of a monitor, and since monitor OPERABILITY includes communication between the monitor and the CCT(s), the routine CHANNEL CHECK surveillance requirements for these

~ Specifications will be annotated to note that the CHANNEL CHECK will include determination that chantel communication is established to the i

MCR-CCT or'the RP-CCT.

The last specific change lunder Change (1) revises the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL' l

TEST requirement (as specified and expanded by Note (1) for Table 4.3.7.1-1, Note (1) and (2) for Table 4.3.7.11-1 and Note (1) for Table 4.3.7.12-1] to cake the wording agree more closely with the capabilities and actual indication provided by the Eberline system at Clinton. The intent of.the Specification is not affected by this proposed change.

The terms specified in parenthesis on the marked-up pages are described in FSAR Section 7.7.1.9.5.2.2.

Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration for Chance (1) i

'According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with tha proposed chang: would (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the (1) probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated for the following reasons:

The proposed change does not change the intent of the affected l

(a): Technical Specifications; it brings the Standard Technical Specification format more in line'with the radiation monitoring system employed at Clinton. The revised Specifications will ensure that effluent releases from Clinton are adequately monitored. In this respect, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an " accident" previously evaluated.

(b) The process radiation monitors to which the proposed change applies are, as noted in FSAR Section 7.7.1.19.1.1, not required for safety. This is supported by the fact that the l

l applicable Technical Specifications all contain exceptions to Specification 3.0.3.

,j support for ensuring that the limits of 10 CFR Part 20 are not exceeded. The proposed change does not significantly reduce the capability of ensuring that these limits will not be exceeded l

' because adequate monitoring will be provided in accordance with the l

revised Specifications. The intent of the applicable. Technical Specifications including the OPERA 3ILITY requirements and associated ACTIONS remains unchanged.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of e; accident from any accident previously evaluated because the proposed change does not involve any design changes and does not introduce any new mode of operation such that a different basis " accident" should be considered.

(3) ~The proposed change does,not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety because the intent of the applicable Technical Specifications and the monitoring capability of the applicable

. instrumentation is not diminished by this. change. No changes to i

the instruments' setpoints are effected by the proposed change.

The OPERABILITY requirements specified for the instrumentation in

'the original and revised specification are equivalent.

Change (2)

Description and Justification for Change (2) 1 According to plant design (as discussed in FSAR Section 11.5.2.2.5 and 11.5.2.2.6) the liquid radwaste discharge radiation monitor shuts off radwaste discharge flow when the HIGH alarm setpoint is exceeded or when monitor failure occurs. The current Technica1' Specification (Note (1) to Table 4.3.7.11-1] implies that radwaste discharge f]ow is also automatically terminated when.the monitor is taken out of the OPERATE mode. A review of the monitoring system design confirms that this is not the case.

(This condition was reported in LER 87-046.) That is,

,the condition identified by item 4 in Note (1) on p. 3/4 3-100 does not cause an automatic isolation of the release pathway to occur, although the statue of this condition is conveyed by the CCT(s). The proposed change would reflect the actual capabilities of the monitoring system with respect to the noted condition (instrument not set in OPERATE mode).

The specific discrepancy between plant design and the current Technical Specification is due to an oversight at the time the Technical Specification was developed. The basis provided for no significant hazards consideration explains why current design is adequate and no design changes should be required.

Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration for Change (2)_

.(1) It has been determined that the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. The proposed change is consistent with plant design which has been determined to be adequate.

The CPS Technical Specifications specify the OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS for which the'radwaste discharge radiation monitor is required to be.0PERABLE. The monitor is not censidered to be OPERABLE when the j

monitor controls are not set to the OPERATE position. Plant procedures (to ensure compliance with the Technical Specifications)

~

require the monitor controls to be set to the OPERATE position during the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS (i.e., during releascs via the radwaste discharge pathway). Thus, the monitor's

.CFERABILITY is administrative 1y controlled by compliance with the Technical Specifications (Limiting Conditions for Operation.and corresponding ACTIONS) according to plant procedures.

In addition, indications of monitor status are provided at the Central Control Terminals located in the control room and in the Radiation

' Protection office.

(2) The proposed _ change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated since no changes to plant design or operation are required for the proposed change.

(3) It has been determined that the proposed change does not involve a l

significant reductien in a margin of safety. No changes to the alarm and trip setpoints for the radwaste discharge radiation monitor are proposed, and no changes to monitor operation or monitoring capability will be effected by the proposed change.

Change (3)

Description and Justification for Change (3) l The changes proposed under this change apply only to Tables 3.3.7.12-1 and 4.3.7.12-1.

The changes will make the channel descriptions for the Standby Gas Treatment System Exhaust Process Radiation Monitor and the Station HVAC Exhaust Process Radiation Monitor agree since they are equivaler.t monitors. Under the revised Specification, both monitors

'l will have a "High-Range" and a " Low-Range" Noble' Gas Activity Monitor channel listed, and both will have an." Iodine Sampler" listed.

The NRC has provided guidance concerning the application of the standards in 10CFR50.92 by providing certain examples of actions notThis likely to involve a significant hazards consideration (51FR7751).

guidance states that "A proposed amendment io an operating license for a facility...will likely be found to involve no significant hazards considerations, if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment 1nvolves... (1) a purely administrative change to Technical Specifications. For example, a change to achieve consistency throughout ' the Technical Specifications, correction of an error, or a change in nomenclature." The proposed change falls within the envelope of this example since the change would'make the wording as noted This therefore supports the conclusion that the proposed consistent.

change does not involve a significant hazards consideration.

Change (4)

.i f

Description and Justification for Change (4)

I Several. changes are proposed for ACTION 72.

To support those changes associated with the OPERABILITY of the Pre-Treatment Off-Gas process radiation monitor, changes are also proposed for Technical 4.11.2.7.1 and 4.11.2.7.2 due to the association between Specifications these Specifications and Specification 3.3.7.1 (specifically ACTION 72).

l These changes are discussed in more detail below.

- ACTION 72 currently states that (with the Pre-Treatment Off-gas Noble Gas Activity Monitor inoperable) " gases from the main condenser off-gas treatment system may be released to the environment for up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> 4

b.

The post-treatment air ejector of f-gas PRM high range noble gas activity monitor is OPERABLE."

q q

J No shutdown requirement is specified if the 72-hour limit is exceeded.

This is consistent with the ACTIONS specified in the Limiting Condition j

for Operation section which state that the provisions of Specifications 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 are not applicable. "The 3.0.3 exemption suggests that it is not the intent of the Specification (3.3.7.1) to require a plant-shutdown if the radiation nonitoring instrumentation listed in che specification ir inoperable. With no plant shutdown required, it may be concluded that the plant should be able to continue to operate under the provisions of the ACTION statement (to ensure that adequate monitoring is still provided) and that the 72-hour time limit is not applicable.

(This conclusion has been previously diacussed with NRC.)

A discrepancy is introduced, however, because extended operation with the' Pre-Treatment Off-Gas process radiation monitor inoperable would not j

t support implementation of Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements-4.11.2.7.1 and 4.11.2.7.2.

These surveillance (which l

the require monitoring the radioactivity rate of noble gases measured at off-gas recombiner effluent) assume the retreatment monitor is performing its monitoring function. To support possible periods of operation with the retreatment monitor inoperable (as provided by 1

Specification 3.3.7.1), a provision for sampling and analyzing the offgas (from the sam.e point in the system as the retreatment monitor) will slso be included in ACTION 72.

The proposed change to ACTION 72 would therefore delete the words "for up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />" and insert a third provision ("c.") stating that " grab samples are taken at least once per 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> and analyzed for gross noble gas activity within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />."

(This sampling frequency and analysis time limit is consistent with other ACTION requirements appearing in the Technical Specifications.)

To ensure consistency between the OPERABILITY requirements for the retreatment monitor specified in Table 3.3.7.1-1, including the provisions of ACTION 72, and the requirements of Specification 3.11.2.7.

an additional change is proposed for the Surveillance Requirements associated with Specification 3.11.2.7.

The words "by the Pre-Treatment Off-Gas process radiation monitor required to be OPERABLE or as otherwise provided by Table 3.3.7.1-1" would be inserted into Specifications 4.11.2.7.1 and 4.11.2.7.2 as shown. This would allev the sampling and analysis provision to be an alternate means of supporting the implementation of these Specifications. The expenditure of man-hours and utilization of equipment in order to support the sampling and analysis provides incentive fer returning the retreatment monitor I

4 to OPERABLE status as soon as possible.

Finally, a clarification would be inserted into the provision under ACTION 72 which requires the post-treatment air ejector off-gas PRM high Since ACTION 73 range noble gas activity monitor to be OPECABLE.

contains provisions for collecting and analyzing grab samples in lieu of j

an OPERABLE post-treatment air ejector of f-gas PRM, the provision should be recognized in ACTION 72.

This provision is consistent with other radiological effluent Technical Specifications in which sampling and analyses are included as provi.tions within the applicable ACTIONJ l

required in lieu of OPERABLE radiation ronitoring instrumentation.

i.

to U-601048 Page 29 of 157 It should also be noted that the off-gas. system effluentHis directed to the HVAC common stack which is also bonitored-(by the instrumentation identified in. Technical Specification 3.3.7.12) and for which requirements are imposed to enoure that the limits of 10CFR'Part 20 are not exceeded.

The intent of the provisions contained in ACTION 72 is to ensure that adequate monitoring is still provided (and that the off-gas treatment i

system is not bypassed) with the Pre-treatment off-gas PRM inoperable.

The changes proposed for ACTION 72 support this intent.

' Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration for Change (4)'

According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration-if j

operation of the facility in accerdance with the proposed chance vaald (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the-possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

(l') The proposed-change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident'previously evaluated because the af fected ACTION statement contains provisions to ensure that adequate monitoring is maintained. The proposed change to the ACTION statement would support these provisions. Inoperability of the monitor does not create a condition when off-gas radioactivity would be unmonitored because the ACTION, as revised, provides for sampling and, analysis to verify that the limit specified in Specification 3.11.2.7 (289 mC1/sec) :is not exceeded.*

Regarding deletion of the 72-hour time limit, the proposed change is consistent with the 3.0.3 exemption currently specified.

Deleting the 72-hour limit has no impact on plant operation since exceeding the 72-hour time limit does not require the plant to operate in any condition different than before the time limit would be' exceeded.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated because no design changes are involved and no new mode of operation is introduced that requires a new or different kind of accident to be considered.

\\

This limit ensures that the total body exposure to an individual at the exclusion area boundary will not exceed a small fraction of tne is limits of 10CFR100 in the unlikely event off-gas elfluent inadvertently discharged directly to the environment without treatment.

. LIMITING CONDITION FOR' OPERATION' L

3:3.7.11 The radioactive liquid effluent monitoring-instrumentation channels shown in Table 3.3.7.11-1 shall be OPERABLE with their alarm / trip setpoints set to ensure that the limits of Specification 3.11.1.1 are not exceeded. The alarm / trip setpoints of these channels shall be determined and adjustea.in.

'accordance with the methodology-and parameters in the OFFSITE 00SE CALCULATION MANUAL (ODCM).

APPLICABILITY:

Ouring releases via this pathway.

ACTION:

l With a radioactive liquid efflueat monitoring instrumentation channel a,

alarm / trip setpoint less conservative than required by the above specifi-cation, without delay suspend the release of_ radioactive liquid effluents y

j monitored _ by the affected channel, or ' declare the channel inoperable, or l

change the setpoint so it is acceptably conservative.

b.

With less.than-the minimum number of radioa::tive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channels OPERABLE,-take the ACTION shown in Table 3.3.7.11-1.

Restore the inoperable instruments to OPERABLE status within 30 days and, if unsuccessful, explain in the next Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report why the inoperability was not corrected in a timely manner.

The provisions of Specifications 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 are not applicable.

c.

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS 4.3.7.11= Each radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channel shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by performance of the CHANNEL CHECK, SOURCE CHECK, CHANNEL CALIBRATION and CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST operations at the frequencies shown in Table 4.3.7.11-1.

Summary of Proposed Changes -

The changes proposed for the Accident Monitoring Instrumentation

  • Technical Specifications are addressed as foe.r changes and are

. summarized below. - A description and justification as well as a basis for no significant hazards consideration is provided for each of the four change 9 on the following pages.

(1) Under the'first proposed change, exceptions to Specification 3.0.4

-would be inserted into the' ACTIONS associated with Table 3.3.7.5-1.

The exceptions would permit entry into OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS 1, 2, 3 with an accident monitbring instrumentation channel (s) inoperable as provided in the individual ACTION statements.

l (2)- The second proposed change corrects a typographical error appearing

{

on p. 3/4 3-87.of the Technical Specifications.

(3) The third proposed change resolves an inconsistency existing between ACTION 81 associated with Table 3.3.7.5-1 and the general j

4 ACTION and Limiting Condition for Operation specified under l

Specification 3.3.7.5.

This appears to have been an oversight in to i

the Standard Technical Specification or a problem in adapting it f

the Clinton plant design.

i (4) The fourth proposed change would delete the safety / relief valve.

1 acoustic monitors frem the Accident Monitoring Instrumentation of j

the CPS Technical Specification on the basis that the 3.3.7.5 and 4.3.7.5 Specifications are redundant to the requirements In Specifications 3.-4.2.1 and 4.4.2.1.1.

Without this change, some l

minor administrative / technical differences between the two Technical Specification sections may be needed to be corrected in a later license amendment.

l l

Description and Justification for Change (1)

Specification 3.0.4 states that entry into an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified condition shall not be made unless the conditions for

  • he Limiting Condition for Operation are met without reliance on pcovisions contained in the ACTION requirements This specification entry into OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS 1, 2, 3 when an ACTION would prohibit statement under Specification 3.3.7.5 is in effect due to an inoperable j

accident monitoring instrument.

Although the instrumentation is required to be OPERABLE in OPERATIONAL l

CONDITIONS 1, 2, 3, the instrumentation is designed and intended to be used to " assess plant and environs conditions during and following an l

accident" (Ref. Reg. Gu1de 1.97).

Thus, entry into Conditions.1, 2, 3 l

does not necessarily correspond to entry into the conditions in which l

}:

Exceptious to Specification 3.0.4 would therefore be inserted into

-ACTIONS 80, 81 and 82 as shown.

Y For ACTION 80, a 3.0.4 exception vould be inserted only into that

>f portion of the ACTION addressing inoperability with the. number of OPERABLE channels less than the REQUIRED NUMBER OF CHANNELS in '

'j accordance with the discussion above. Entry into OPERATIONAL CONDITION 1, 2, or 3 with th; number of 0PERABLE channels less chan the.MINDfUM CHANNELS OPERABLE requirement would still be prohibited. Entr'y with j

less than the REQUIRED NUMBER OF CHANNELS would be allowed with part "c"

{

of ACTION 80 in effect.

(This would require the-inoperable channel (s)

~

to be restored to OPERABLE status within 7 days'or the plant would have to be placed in ROT SMUTDOWN within the following 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.)

For each of the less severe ACTIONS, 81 and 82,.the 3.0.4 exception would be applicable to the entire ACTION because the ACTION time is longer and because' compensatory measures (preplanned alternate method of monitoring under' ACTION 81 and use of alternate indication methods under ACTION 82) are provided according to the ACTION. That'is, it should be permissible to allow the plant to enter OPERATIONAL CONDITION 1, 2, or 3' with the channel (s) associated with these ACTIONS inoperable since the ACTIONS require compensatory measures to be taken as applicable'.

In addition, like most of the instrumentation identified in Technical Specification Section 3/4.3.7, MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION, the accident monitoring instrumentation does not provide any eutomatic actuation or isolation trip functions. All of'the other subsections under section 3.3.7 (Specifications 3.3.7.1,.3.3.7.2, 3.3.7.3, 3.3.7.4, 3.3.7.6, j

ACTION 81)..

1 (c) The difference in unavailability of an accident monitoring instrument (s) in OPERATIONAL CONDITION 1, 2, or 3 without the i

exception to Specification 3.0.4 versus including the

{

exception is associated with the out-of-service time that would otherwise be allowed as provided in the ACTION statement upon entry into OPERATIONAL CONDITION 1, 2, or 3.

(Inclusion of a 3.0.4 exception has no impact on the probability of i

failure of an instrument beyond this initial allowed out-of-service period each time an entry is made into OPERATIONAL CONDITION 1, 2, or 3.)

The allowed out-of-service time for a single inoperable redundant channel under ACTION 80 is seven days. In view of the fact that the surveillance test

-1 j

interval for-the CHANNEL CHECK is 31 days ("M"), the ACTION time is relatively severe (short). When considered together d

with the probability of occurrence of an accident condition

]

that would require use of the instrument (s) relative to the l

cotal amount of time that the plant is operated in OPERATIONAL i

CONDITION 1, 2, or 3, the application of a 3.0.4 exception should not significantly increase the unavailability of an accident monitoring instrument (s) and therefore does not l

involve a significant increase in the consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

(The proposed change for the noted monitoring instrumentation Technical Specification has I

no impact on tha probability of occurrence or the initiation l

of an accident.)

l (2)

It has been determined that the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new and different kind of accident from any previously evaluated. The proposed change does not involve any changes to the plant as-built design. The accident monitoring

instrumentation is designed and intended for monitoring purposes in

a wide variety of accident conditions. The impact of the proposed l

safety, the impact on that aspect has been previously evaluated.

Description and Justification for Change (2)

The purpose of this change is to correct a typographical error identified on p. 3/4 3-87 (Table 3.3.7.5-1) of the CPS Technical Specifications. The "t" note for the suppression pool water temperature sensors refers to Specification "3.5.3.1."

It should refer instead to Specification "3.6.3.1" where requirements for the other suppression pool temperature sensors are specified.

Basis for No Significant Hazards consideration for Change (2)

According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

(1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of tn accident previously evaluated.

This is an administrative change to correct a typographical error and does not affect any accident analysis.

(2) The preposed change does not creata the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

This is an administrative change to correct a typographical error and does not affect plant design.

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. The correction of this typographical error does not affect a margin of safety.

Description and Justification for Change (3)

The Limiting condition for Operation under Specification 3.3.7.5 states that the channels shown on the table shall be OPERABLE. The general ACTION statement within the LCO states, "with one or more accident monitoring instrumentation channels inoperable, take the ACTION required by Table 3.3.7.5-1."

ACTION 81 on Table 3.3.7.5-1 however, does not explicitly state what action should be taken if one drywell and/or containment high range gross ganma radiation monitor channel is inoperable. This is explained as follows.

o.

-Page-61~ of 157

{

' ACTIONS 80 and 82 each contain two levels of ACTION (parts "c." and "b"

)

t of each ACTION). The first level (pert "a") addresses the r.cndition l

vith the number of O'PERABLE chacnels less than the Required Number of Channels requirement; the seccnd level addresses the condition with the j

'l number of OPERA 3LE channels less than the Minimum-Channels' Operable requirement. ACTION 81 however only (currently) addresses the latter condition even though item 11 on* Table 3.L 7.5-1 (Containment /Dryvell 1

High Range Gross Gamm.2 Radiation Monitors) lists a greater number of i

channels in the.7.EQUIRFD NUH.BER OF CHANNELS column than in the MINIMUM CHAhNELS OPERABLE column '(as appropriate). Thus no action is currently i

d required if,.for example, one containment high range gross gamma radiation monitor is out of service cince the number of channels OPERABLE in that case vould be less than the' REQUIRED NUMBER OF CHANNELS requirement but greater than the MINIMUM CHANNELS OPERABLE requirement.

The propo wd change would revise the apparent inconsistency between the ACTION associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation (3.3.7.5) and the ACTION (81) specified on the associated cable-(Table 3.3.7.5-1),

IP believes the proposed ACTION resolves the inconsistency without changing the intant of the Specification.

1 Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration for Chance (3)

i Description and Justification fcr Change (4)

Requirements for the Safety / Relief Valve (SRV) Acoustic Monitors appear in two secticus of the CPS Technical Specifications:

(1) The Accident Monitoring Instrumentation.section (Technical Specifications 3.3s7.5 and.

4.3.7.5) and - (2) The Saf ety/ Relief Valves seccion (Technical Specifications 3.4.2.1 and 4.4.2. z.1). Due'to redundancy between the two sections, the SRV Acoustic Monitors should be deleted from the Accifent Monitoring Inst: a yntation section of the Technical Specifications. The SRV seu.ica (3.4.2.1, 4.4.2.1.1) contains the me.t precise requirements regarding the ACTION and surveillance requireman o for the monitors, to that s6ction should be retained. IP had considered.

proposins changes that had been identified to resolve seme minor technical administrative differences between the two sections, but it was believed that regt.esting a change to delete the conitors from the i

The Accident Monitoring Instrumentation section was more appropriate.

deletion as requested (and as shewa on the marked-up pages from the Technical Specifications) would not remove any requirements for maintaining and demonstrating OPERLSILITY of the nonitors since these i

requirements will remain unchanged.in Technical Specifications 3.4.2.1 and 4.4.2.1.1.

l The proposed change is consistent with the Technical Specifications approved for the River Lend Station.

Basic for No Significant Hazards Consideration'for Change (4)_

According'to 10CFR50.92, a nroposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would l

(1) involve a significant increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident'previously evaluated; or (2) create the l

possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

(1) Deleting the SRV acoustic monitors from Specification 3.3.7.5 (and 4.3.7.5) does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated because OPERABILITY of the monitors will be required and demonstrated under i

The OPERABILITY, ACTION and Specifications 3.4.2.1 and 4.4.2.1.1.

Surveillance requirements specified in Specification 3.3.7.3 (and 4.3.7.5) are equivalent to those specified in Specification 3.4.2.1 (and 4.4.2.1.1).

The proposed change does not impact Clinton's to Regulatory Guide 1.97 in that the requirements of commitment Specifications 3.4.2.1 and 4.4.2.1.1 will require OPERABILITY of the acoustic monitors to be maintained. This will help to ensure that in case of an accident, SRV position status will be provided to the operators to allow them to respond appropr1ately to accident conditions.

Description of Change 1l The purpose of this proposed change is to delete CPS Technical Specification 3/4.3.8, " Turbine Overspeed Protection System": based on the ' justification provided below. Deletion of the Specification would relieve Clinton of its commitments to continue inspecting and not testing the applicable valves and instrumentation as discussed in FSAR Section 10.2.3.6.

The intent is to remove these requirements from the plant Technical Specifications based on the following.

From a safety point of view, the chief concern for turbine overspeed from protection is the possible hazard to safety-related equipment

" missiles" that could possibly be generated due to a turbine overspeed condition. The turbine-generator orientation at CPS is favorable for from reducing,the probability of damage to safety-related equipment turbine missiles since all safety-related components and structures are located in the axial direction from the turbine-generator. Because of the turbine-generator location and orientation, safety-related equiprent lies outside the low-trajectory missile strike zone which is defined as the zone where objects may be subject to a direct hit from a turbine

' missile. Therefore, the only' type of turbine missile that presents a hazard to CPS safety-related equipment is a high trajectory missile, defined as a missile that initially travels upward and then can cause

]

damage when falling.

CPS FSAR'Section 3.5.1.3, using GE and NUREG-0800 (NRC Standard Review Plan) turbine failure data, indicates that the probability of damage The from high trajectory turbine missiles is acceptably low.

rate of less than 10 a single event.

The above analysis was provided to NRC in Letter dated June 30, 1986 (U-600619).

Furthermore, deletion of the Turbine overspeed Protection System Technical Specification is supported by the fact that the Specification the criteria described by the NRC Interim Policy Statement does not meet on Technical Specification Improvements noticed in the Federal Register on February 6, 1987.

1 to U-601048 Page 70 of 157 Basis-For No Significant Hazards Consideration According-co 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would j

I not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

1 (1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the j

probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated l'

because it has been determined that, although the turbine overspeed protection syste-is necessary for protection of the turbine from both an operational and economic point of view, the system (and therefore the Technical Specification) is not essential to j

mitigating the consequences of an accident, and that the probability of damage to safety-related equipment is acceptably low l

based on the probability of turbine failure and the orientation of j

~

the turbine-generator at Clinton.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously analy::ed. It was.

determined that the turbine missile accident was the applicable accident to be considered for analysis in providing a basis for the i

proposed change. No new kind of accident is created by the deletion of specification 3/4.3.8.

(3) The proposed' change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. The favorable orientation of the turbine i

provides a margin of safery such that the possibility of missile

(SER), Section 5.7. 5, NRC concluded that the leakage Evaluatica Report l

[j (3.4.3.2).

1 In a letter (U-600809), dated January 12, 1987, Illinois Power informed theihRC of a revision to tho' CPS FSAR which revised IP's coc:mitments to IP intends instead to commit to compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.45.

ANSI /ISA Standard S67.03-1982, "Standatd for Light Water Reactor Coolant

?ressure Bcundary Leak Detection." The letter stated, "This is being done because Regulatory Guide 1.45 is technically out-of-date, ANSI /ISA S67.'03-1982 is new recognized as the more appropriate requirements y

document for leak detection systems, and the air particulate monitoring system is not capable of detecting a leakage rate of 1 gptt within cn (A new FSAR hour as required by Position C.5 ef Regulatory Guide 1.45."

revision wil.1 be implemented in the next update of the FSAR.)

To be consistent with this position, a change en the Technical Specification is proposed to remove the existing implication in the Technical Specifications which suggests that monitoring the drywell atmospheric particulate and gaseous radioactivity will demonstrate that reactor coolant system leakage is within the limits specified in the Drywell particulate and gaseous Limiting Condition for Operation.

(1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated because the drywe'll atmospheric particulate and gaseous radioactivity leak detection system does not provide any automatic trip functions for effecting isolations or actuating safety systems required to mitigate the consequences of an accident. However (in accordance with General Design Criterion 30), the system does provide a means for detecting and to the extent practical, identifying the location of the source of reactbr coolant leakage that could lead to an accident or jeopardize safety. In this j

respect, the proposed change does not involve a change to the cystem's as-built design or the built-in capabilities of the system. The only purpose of the proposed change is to make the noted Technical Specification (4.4.3.2.1.a) consistent with system design.

redundant systems identified in the Technical Specification will continue to provide the capability for quantifying leakage needed to ensure that leakage is within the specified limits.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously e aluated because no changes to plant design are involved.

The " motion inhibit" signal causes hydraulic power unit shutdown and hydraulic isolation such that the flow control valve fails "as is."

This design feature insures that the flow control valves do not respond to potentially erroneous control signals.

q 1

Electronic limiters exist in the position control loop of each flow control

{

valve to limit the flow control valve stroking rate to 10 1% per second in opening and closing directions on a control signal failure. The analysis of the recirculation flow control failures on increasing and decreasing flow are presented in Sections 15.3 and 15.4 of the FSAR respectively.

The required surveillance interval is adequate to ensure that the flow control 1

valves remain OPERABLE and not so frequent as to cause excessive wear on the system components.

3/4.4.2 SAFETY / RELIEF VALVES The safety valve function of the safety / relief valves (SRV) operate to prevent the reactor coolant system from being pressurized above the Safety Limit of 1375 psig in accordance with the ASME Code. A total of 11 OPERABLE safety-relief valves is required to limit reactor pressure to within ASME III allowable values for the worst case upset transient.

Any combination of 5 SRVs operating in the relief mode and 6 SRVs operating in the safety mode is acceptable.

Demonstration of the safety-relief valve lift settings will occur only during shutdown and will be performed in accordance with the provisions of Specifica-tion 4.0.5.

{

1 The low-low set system ensures that safety / relief valve discharges are minimized for a second opening of these valves, following any overpressure transient.

This is achieved by automatically lowering the closing setpoint of 5 valves and lowering the opening setpoint of 2 valves following the initial opening.

In this way, the frequency and magnitude of the containment blowdown duty cycle is substantially reduced.

Sufficient redundancy is provided for the low-low set system such that failure of any one valve to open or close at its reduced set-point does not violate the design basis.

ACKAGE NUMBER 10 Summarv of Proposed Changes This change request consists of three proposed changes. The first i

proposed change consists of those changes required to' delete the OPERABILITY and surveil]ance requirements associated with 50' stops installed for the -VR/VQ* system containment isolation valvec on the basis that the 50' stops will now be considered a part of the permanent design for these valves. The second proposed change would insert footnotes into the Limiting Conditions for Operation and applicable surveillance requirements associated with Specifications 3.6.1.8 and 3.6.2.7 to exclude the time when valves are opened for performing stroke-time testing (required by the ISI program and/or Specification 4.6.4.3) from the cumulative system operation time limited by the Limiting Conditions for Operation. The third chcnge proposed would extend the application of Note "(a)" ("May be opened under administrative control") in Table. 3.6.4-1 of the Technical isolation valves Specifications'to include specific VR/VQ containment which need to be opened while conducting certain local leak rate tests.

All of these changes are described in more detail on the following A basis for no significant hazards consideration is also pages.

provided for each of the three changes.

Description and Justification For Change (1)

As noted on p. 3-16 of SSER 5, IP committed by letter dated November 17, 1983 to NRC (U-0678) to utilize mechanical stops to limit applicable valves from' opening more than 50*.

The stops would be in place during operational modes 1, 2 and 3 and would be removed during modes 4 and 5 to provide full purge flow if required during maintenance activities.

The NRC_ acknowledged in the,SER that "the staff has determined that with the confirmation of the limitation of the 24-inch and 36-inch valves to a 50' maximum opening angle...the applicant has addressed the staff's concerns in [this area)...".

Technical Specifications were subsequently developed to provide OPERABILITY and surveillance requirements for the 50* stops.

CPS has since resolved its position with respect to this is. sue and has deternined that' adequate purge flow will be obtained during modes 4 and That is, the 50* stops will not be y

5 with the 50' stcps in place.

periodically removed as originally suggested and vill chus be considered This a part of the permanent as-built design for the affected valves.**

obviates the need for those Technical Specifications originally provided to periodically confirm the 50' maximum opening angle limitation.

VR = Containment Building Ventilation System (including the low-volume ventilation system)

VQ = Drywell Purge System (Overlaps VR System) f

    • This would not preclude removal of the 50* stops; but such removal to the controls and requirements of the plant would be subject (A modification requires a Safety Evaluation modification program.

per 10CFRSO.59.)

-4, -5 and 3.6.2.7, 4.6.-2.7.4.

Corresponding changes to the BASES are also included.

Basis For No Significant Hazards Consideration for Change (1)

According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if E

operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or -

consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accida.ut previously evaluated; or.(3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

(1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated for the following reason:

IP's commitment remains unchanged with respect to the original requirements for limiting the amount the valves can be open (determined to be a solution to an NRC concern resulting from the POSI-SEAL analyses). Compliance with this commitment (installing 50* stops) ensures the valves will function as required for containment isolation during design basis accident conditions.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kird of accident from any accident previously evaluated because (1) the effecsive plant configuration (with respect to the-50* stops being in place) during OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS 1, 2, 3 remains unchanged; (2) it.has been determined that keeping the 50*

stops ir place during OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS 4 and 5 will still provide adequate purge flow which is the only concern of interest with respect to VR/VQ operation, and (3) the operability of these isolation valves, as also required in modes 4 and "#"

containment according to Table 3.6.4-1, will be unaffected. Thus, the impact of the change has been considered with respect to the plant configuration or conditions other than those associated with maintaining containment integrity The possibility of a new or different accident is not created by the change.

If the 50* limitation to opening the affected valves is considered (3) a margin of safety with respect to ensuring containment isolation capability and minimizing dose in accordance with 10CFR100, then t

tt.c proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a j

Description and Justification for Change (2)

Specification 3.6.1.8 states that the containment building ventilation 36-inch supply (1VR001A, B) and'36-inch exhaust (1VQ004A, B) isolation valve (s) may be open for containment ventilation system operation with such operation limited to less than or equal to 500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> per year.

Containment vent 11atton system operation is conservatively defined as j

any time the 36-inch supply and/or exhaust isolation valves are open.

Similarly, Specification 3.6.2.7 states that the dryvell vent and purge i

system 24-inch (1VQ002) or the 10-inch (lvQ005) exhaust isolation valve may be open for drywell vent system operation with such operation limited to 5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> per year. Dryvell vent system operation is defined as any time either the 10-inch or the 24-inch inboard exhaust valve is open (concurrent with all valves of Specification 3.6.1.8 closed).

The above-mentioned valves, however, must be tested according to the ISI program which requires the stroke times to be determined every 92 days.

The testing requires the valves to be opened, one at a time, for a short period of time. Although system operation is defined as any time the noted valves are open, the purpose of the cumulative system operation time limit is to limit the release of radioactivity present in the drywell/ containment atmosphere to the environs during containment /drywell ventilation system operation under normal operating conditions.

(The system is usually used for reducing containment j

airborne radiation levels for personnel access in order to perform i

maintenance and testing.) Opening the valves for the purpose of testing does not require the system to be operated (fans-run, etc.).

Furthermore, the stroke timing performed to implement ISI requirements is performed such that the valves are stroked one at a time thus keeping the other valve in series closed. Although it was not the intent, the

.aurrent Technical Specification implies that the time the valves are 1

opened for the performance of ISI testing should be noted and taken into accounc with respect to the cumulative time allowed under the Limiting Conditions for Operation. This accountability problem was not apparently anticipated at the time the current Technical Spec 1fication was prepared.

The proposed change.would exempt the time when valves are opened to complete surveillance (stroke-time) testing required by the ISI Program (and/or Technical Specification 4.6.4.3) from the cumulative system i

operation time required to be routinely determined to ensure compliance (This is required due to the with Specification 3.6.1.8 and 3.6.2.7.

f.

conservative definition of " system operation" as discussed above.)

Existing footnotes attached to the Limiting Conditions for Operation would be revised to reflect this exemption.

(See marked-up pages attached.)

Basis.For No Significant Hazards Consideration for Change (2)

According to 10CFRSO.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical involves no significant hazards consideration if Specifications) operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would f

of safety.

l (1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the 1

)

the following reasons.

l The basis for limiting the amount of time the valves can be opened j

for drywell/ containment ventilation system operation is to limit I

the release of radioactivity to the environs during normal l

operating conditions and is thus not associated with an accident.

In consideration of this basis however, the proposed change will j

~

l not increase the amount of radioactivity released to the environs because the system will not be operated to perform the ISI stroke-

)

time tests for the applicable valves and because the drywell/

containment penetration will remain effectively closed (by at least j

one valve) during the performance of the testing.

I Additionally, with respect to containment integrity, the proposed change does not impact the containment isolation capability of the applicable valves (1VR001A, B and IVQ004A, B) and supports testing required to verify operability of these valves. It therefore does not involve a significant increase in the consequences of design j

basis accidents (DBA LOCA) associated with or requiring containment j

integrity.

(2) It has been determined that the proposed change does not create the l

possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any j

previously evaluated because no design changes are involved and no j

new modes of operation,ar,e introduced such that a different kind of l

accident could be created or have to be considered.

l l

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a l

margin of safety because the change does not involve any changes to setpoints or limits associated with any margin of safety assumed or l

required by a safety analysis.

Description and Justification for Change (3) i I

As noted in Appendix D of the CPS FSAR (p. D-47 6 -48), the VQOO6A, -B and VR002A, -B valves are 4-inch bypass isolation valves whf ch are I

keylocked at the handswitch in the closed position.

(Key removable in closed.pocition and kept under administrative controls.)

Under this propcsed change, a note ["(a)"] would be inserted into Table

'3.6.4-1 for valves IVR002A, -3 and IVQOO6A, -B to allow the valves to be opened under administrative control during applicable OPERATIONAL The valves must be opened during the performance of leak CONDITIONS, containment testing associated with the 36-inch supply and exhaust ventilation isolation valves every 92 days as required by Technical I

Specification 4.6.1.8.3 (The VR002A, and VQ006A, B valves actually need to be opened to support leak r

.g of the valves ;1VR003 and IVQ007) in the test lines associatt

.th the 36" valves since these to U-601048 Page 85 of 157 valves (1VR003 and IVQOO7) are part of the test boundary for the 36" valves.) It should be noted that for performance of the leak testing of the IVR003 and VQ007 valves, the 36-inch valves must be closed. That is. the 36-inch valves will be closed when the VQ006A -B and VR002A,-B valves are open so that that the penetration will remain effectively closed during the test.

The requested change is consistent with the " Note (a)" p ovisions allowed for other valves within Table 3.6.4-1 and with the allowance provided by the "*" note attached to ACTION "a" under the Limiting Condition for Operation (3.6.4).

The requirement under Specification 3.6.1.8 which states that the 36-inch supply and exhaust isolation valves must be closed when the 12-inch valves (1VR006A, B and IVR007A, B)_are open will still be imposed even though the 12-inch system will not be placed into operation when the IVR006A, B valves are opened for the purpose of leak testing.

Basis For No Significant Hazards Consideration Change-(3)

According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin j

of safety.

(1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated because the penetration will remain effectively closed during performance of the leak test. The proposed change is requested to support leak testing which is required to verify.and ensure containment integrity. In addition, the provisions of note (a) would require administrative control of the valve. The proposed change would therefore have no significant adverse impact on containment integrity which is required to limit the release of radioactivity to the environs resulting from a design basis accident (DBA-LOCA).

(2) It has been determined that the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated is not created by the proposed change. The impact of the change in mitigating the consequences of the applicable accident has been evaluated (above).

The proposed change does not involve any design changes nor does it j

introduce a new mode of operation such that another accident l

l L

scenario has to be considered.

l

)

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety since the change does not involve any changes to i

setpoints or limits associated with any margin of safety assumed or l

required by a safety analysis. The proposed change would support leak testing to verify that the leak rate of the 36-inch valves is within the allowed limit.

The use of the containment purge lines is restricted to the 12-inch purge supply and exhaust isolation valves since, unlike the 36-inch valves, the 12-inch valves close during accident conditions and therefore the site boundary dose guidelines of 10 CFR Part 100 would not be exceeded in the event of an accident during purg-ing operations.

PACKAGE NUMBER 11 Section 3/4.5, EXERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEM, of the CPS Technical 1

Spe'ifications contains Surveillance Requirements (4.5.1.e.1 and c

4,5.1.e.4) for the Automatic Depressurization System (ADS) accumulator low pressure alarm system. However, there is no, ACTION included in the Limiting Condition for Operation section of the Specification (3.5.1) that addresses the alarm (s). The ACTIONS currently specified in Specification 3.5.1 only address inoperability of the ADS valves themselves. Inoperability of an ADS accumulator low pressure alarm system does not necessarily constitute inoperability of the associated ADS valves, especially since the Clinton as-built design includes other redundant instrumentation that can be used to monitor accumulator pressure.

i

?

A change to CPS Technical Specification 3.5.1 is therefore proposed that would include an ACTION to be taken when an ADS accumulator low pressure alarm system instrumentation channel has been declared inoperable.

(See attached marked-up page from the CPS Technical Specifications.)

Additional details and bases for No Significant Hazards Consideration j

are provided below.

System Description

As noted.in the Clinton Safety Evaluation Report (Supplement 5), the safety-grade ADS pneumatic supply is separate for the two divisions of ADS valves. The loss of air supply to one division of ADS valves will not prevent.the safe shutdown of the plant, and the failure of any one component will not result in the loss of air supply to more than one division of ADS valves. A simplified diagram of one division of the ADS accumulator-air supply system is attached.

(See Fig. 1.)

1 The following instrumentation may be noted on the drawing.

(1) Two pressure instruments are located on each divisional supply header.

(a) One instrument (1 PSIA 084 for Div I/IPSIA085 for Div II) provides a signal for a pressure alarm annunciator on panel P800* in the main control room. The pressure switch is powered from a divisional safety-related power supply.

This is the ADS accumulator low pressure alarm system instrument identified in the Technical Specifications.

It should be noted that the pressure switch also has a l

locally mounted pressure gauge that can be read from inside the containment (outside the drywell) thus providing local indication if needed.

(b) Another instrument (1PTIA078 for Div. I/IPTIA079 for Div.

II) provides direct pressure indication (LPIA078/079) on panel P601* in the main control room. This instrument is j

also powered from a divisional safety-related power

~

i supply and was installed to the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.97.

  • See FSAR Fig. 7.5-1 for location of these panels.

(2) A pressure switch (1B21-N542B,

-H,

-C,

-S,

-K,

-D, -E).is a

i located on each ADS valve accumulator within the drywell, Each pressure switch provides a signal to a common alarm on panel P601* in the main control room.- Although, due to their location, the switches cannot be periodically functionally tested like the Technical-Specification-related instruments, they are calibrated in accordance with the plant maintenance program and'are also used to support leak testing of the accumulator air-supply check valves. It should be noted that, for the purposes of troubleshooting, it is also possible to attach voltmeter instrument leads'to points provided within the control room cabinet containing the common alarm circuitry and determine if or which accumulator pressure switch is providing an alarm signal.

Description and Justification for Change si Although inoperability of an accumulator may constitute inoperability of the associated ADS valve, inoperability of the low pressure alarm (s) referred to in the Technical Specifications does not necessarily constitute inoperability of the associated accumulators. The as-built

' design at Clinton includes redundant instrumentation such that sufficient capability exists to determine the status of ADS accumulator pressure even with the " ADS low pressure alarm system" instrument (s) inoperable. This is the basis for the proposed ACTION.

Upon a loss of the " primary" alarm (i.e., the instrument associated with Technical Specification 3/4.5), operators can monitor ADS accumulator pressure by other means using the backup instrumentation described above. For example, ADS accumulator header pressure (the process variable monitored by the primary instrument) can be periodically verified using the indication provided by the instrument (s) described in the paragraph (1)(b) on the previous page. The locally mounted gauge described in paragraph (1)(a) could also be utilized if the failure of the primary alarm was not due to the sensor. And although the common alarm function provided by the individual accumulator switches described substitute for the in paragraph (2) is not considered an equivalent primary alarm, the system can be used to assist in determining the status of the sssociated ADS accumulator (s) once the provisions of the proposed ACTION are in effect.

The proposed ACTION vould ensure that accumulator pressure is periodically verified and evaluated using the available backup the instrumentation described above on a frequent enough basis such that measures would provide an equivalent degree of confidence in accumulator integrity as would be provided by the continuous monitoring associated On this basis, continued with the ADS low pressure alarm instrument.

plant operation ought to be allowed, at least for an extended period of time, with the primary ADS low pressure alarm instrument inoperable. The out-of-service time allowed under the proposed ACTION is consistent with this conclusion.

See FSAR Fig. 7.5-1 for location of these panels.

.This is also.the basis for the exemption to Specification 3,0.4 to be I

included with the-ACTION.: That is.-in view of the availability of backup instrumentation for determining ADS accumulator pressure status,'

y Basis'For No Significant Hazards Consideration'

]

L According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to.the. license (Technical

-Specifications). involves no significant hazards. consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would.

not, (1) involve a significant' increase' in the probability or

. consequences of an accident prev'iously evaluated:~or.(2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any' accident q

, previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction:in.a margin-l j

.of safety.:

l Ls

' (1) The proposed change does not involve a significant' increase in the l

probability or consequences of'an accident previously evaluated-because the proposed ACTION ensures that the ADS header pressure l

will be appropriately monitored utilizing backup instrumentation.

-l that has'been'determinet to be adequate'for.this purpose.

A periodic check of the.noted backup indication may be considered.

I equivalent to a continuous monitor with alarm-only capability.

This is especially true in view of-the. fact-that the; indicator (s),

as'long as it is periodically checked, can potentially indicate a degraded condition before'the alarm setpoint would be reached on the primary instrument.- Also the periodic checks will be performed frequently enough such that the probability of-occurrence of a-gross. leakage condition. suddenly occurring between checks is j

acceptably low.

j In accordance with NUREG 0737, Item II.K.3.28, leak testing of the accumulator check valves to ensure a leak-tight system will continue'to be performed as required according to commitments--

identified in the Clinton Safety Evaluation Report.

The proposed change does not impact system design nor does it

.significantly impact system operation. No changes are made to the ADS system such that system performance as required in the Safety Analysis would be affected in responding to design basis accidents.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or-different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated because no design changes or new oridifferent modes of operation are proposed for the plant. 0peration under the proposed ACTION

(' determined to be acceptable on the basis discussed statement above) does not constitute a different mode of operation since adequate monitoring of the ADS accumulator header pressure and adequate verification of instrument operability will be maintained.

the same accident scenario The ACTION proposed takes into account assumed for the design and operational requirements established for the ADS Header Pressure Alarm System.

i

I to U-601048' l

Page 97 of 157 (3) It has been determined that the proposed change does'not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. As noted in (1).

~ bove, ADS system operation is not significantly. impacted by the a

proposed change, and no margin of safety is impac::ed with respect

.co supplying adequate pneumatic pressure to the ADS valves.

,p Ifh Background / Reason for Change The NRC' issued Generic Letter 84-15, PROPOSED STAFF ACTIONS TO IMPROVE l

.AND MAINTAIN DIESEL GENERATOR RELIABILITY, which described an approach j

for enhancing diesel generator reliability. One item of the letter was l

.g.

v directed towards reducing the number of cold fast-start surveillance

-tests co prevent premature diesel engine' degradation. An example of an acceptable. Technical Specification was provided in Generic Letter 84-15 i

which would reduce the frequency of fast-start tests of diesel y

generators from ambient conditions. The. example Inserted an asterisk j

(*) in those surveillance requirements involving a diesel start and was l

accompanied by a footnote which limited the number of diesel generator

]

starts from ambient conditions to at least once per 184 days and allowed the remaining engine starts to be preceded by an engine prelube/ warmup,

,j

.p.

('

and to include gradual loading as recommended by the manufacturer.

The asterisk (*) was not inserted in CPS Technical Specification j

t 4.8.1.1.2.a.5 at the time the recommendations of the generic letter were l

1 incorporated into the CPS Technical Specifications.,This was because it was assumed that Surveillance Requirement 4.8.1.1.2.a.5 would be executed as testing was performed for other surveillance requirements i

which would be preceded with a diesel engine prelube/ warmup procedure, and gradual loading.

(For example, a diesel generator might be started 1

to satisfy Specification 4.8.1.1.2.a.4 and then allowed to run for 60 minutes to satisfy Specification 4.8.1.1.2.a.5.

This series of tests would be' preceded by a warming /prelube and gradual loading used to i

advantage for satisfying both Specifications.) It was thus decided, for maximum flexibility, that the asterisk (*) should also be inserted into Specification 4.8.1.1.2.a.5.

Description and Justification I

Under the proposed change, a superscripted asterisk (*) should be inserted just after "90 seconds" in Specification 4.8.1.1.2.a.5, Additionally, the note that is associated with the asterisk should also a

be revised because the note would now also apply to Specification 4.8.1.1.2.a.5.

This Specification requires loading and synchronization The note of the generator in less than or equal to 90 seconds.

currently only refers to the 12-second generator start (as applicable to Specification 4.8.1.1.2.a.4), and should be revised to also refer to the j

90-second loading and synchronization required by Specification j

4.8.1.1.2.a.5.

Therefore " synchronization and loading (90 sec)" should I

be inserted into the note as shown. This will bring the Specification into compliance with the Generic Letter 84-15.

to U-601048 Page 104 of 157 Basis For No Significant Hazards Consideration According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility,in accordance with the proposed change would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin.

of safety.

(1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluaced because the intent of the change, as prescribed by Generic Letter 84-15, is to prevent premature diesel engine degradation and increase diesel generator reliability. Improved diesel generator reliability can have significant safety benefit, The proposed change will reduce the number of diesel generator starts from ambient conditions, but it does not propose to eliminate such starts from teeting. The NRC has acknowledged that some testing to demonstrate fast start capability from ambient conditions is required for the diesel generators because the design basis (Loss of Coolant Accident with loss of offsite power) requires such a capability. The proposed change provides o cold-start test frequency that is consistent with Generic Letter 84-15.

(2) It has been determined that the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. The proposed change involves no design changes nor does it introduce any new mode of cperation such that another type of basis accident would have to be censidered.

The proposed change should improve diesel generator reliability in responding to the basis accident that applies, i.e., 'LOCA with loss of offsite power.

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. No design or setpoint changes are involved that would affect a safety margin assumed in the accident analysis.

Increased reliability of the diesel generator provides an increased margin of safety in ensuring that the diesel generator will not fail on demand.

Basis For N6 Significant Hazards Consideration

~

According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license'(Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if c.

operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or-(2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) favolve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

o t

(1) The proposed change does not involve;a significant' increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.-

This change is an administrative change that eliminates the j

identification'of_ unit staff qualification requirements on the

)

organizational chart. The proposed change does not affect IP's commitments regarding the qualifica::1ons and training of unit staff

(

personnel.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated. These changes are only administrative changes regarding unit staff qualification requirements. Plant' design is not affected; therefore no new accident scenario has been created.

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a l

margin of safety. These are administrative changes that do not impact plant design and therefore do not af fect a margin cf safety.

.This Technical Specification change package contains three separate 3

.changee to page 6-7 and two changes to page 6-3.

Description of Channe (1)

This change is to Specification 6.3 " Unit Staff Qualifications". The exemption to ANBl/ANS 3.1-1978 Section 4.4.2 " Instrumentation and

]

. Control" qualification requirements for the Clinton Supervisor - Control j

.and Instrumentation should be deleted.

Mr. J. Palmer now fills the

.]

position of Supervisor - Control and Instrumentation.and fully meets the

)

i ANSI /ANS 3.1-1978 qualification requirements.

1 Basis For No Significant Hazards Consideration For Change (1)

J 1

According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards considerations if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would (1) involve a significant increase in-the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety..

1)

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previoucly evaluated.

This is an administrative change that eliminates an exemption to a qualification requirement. No accident analyses are affected.

The proposed change does not. create the possibility of a new or 2) different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

This is an administrative change and does not affect accident analyses.

.q 3)

The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. This is an administrative change that removes an exemption to'a qualification requirement. No margin of safety is i

reduced.

1 t

Description of Change (2)

This change is to Specification 6.3 " Unit Staff Qualifications" and 6.4

{

" Training." In Specification 6.3, the last sentence should be de.leted

{

as it has been superseded by the 1987 v=.31on of 10CFR55, " Operators Licences". Additionally, the phrase "and the Radiation Protection Supervisor" should be deleted. During the licensing process, the title of this individual was changed from Radiation Protection Supervisor to Director - Radiation Protection. This change was forwarded to the NRC but deletion of the old title was overlooked. Specification 6.4 should be modified as indicated on the attached marked page to delete material l

that has also been superseded by the 1987 version of 10CFR55.

Page 115 of 157

.The requirements of the March 28, 1983 letter, were incorporated as appropriate by the NRC into the 1987 version of 10CFR55.

j Description of Change (3)

I This change is to Specification 6.4 and to Figure 6.2.1-1.

In January C

1988, the' position of Director - Nuclear Training will be upgraded to

)

Manager.- Nucicar Training..The two referenced Specifications should be j

. updated acecrdingly.

Additionally, the word " operations!' under the Manager - Scheduling and.

l Outage Management should be replaced with " staff"'in order to be consistent with the rest of the organi::ation. chart, i

Basis For No Significant Hazards Consideration For Changes (2) and (3)

According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specification) involves'no significant hazards considerate'on if operation >>f the facility in accordance with the proposed change would not (1) involve.a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of.a new or different kind of accident from any. accident 3

previously evaluated; cc (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin-7 of safety.

(1h The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the possibility or consequences'of an accident previously evaluated because these changes are merely administrative in nature and do' not affect any accident analyses.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated because

-l these changes are administrative and do not affect plant design.

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a f

margin of safety because these are administrative enhancements to operation and do not af fect the margin of safety.

to U-601048 Page 118 of 157 PACKAGE NUMBER 17 Description of Chaege

'This proposed change to Technical Specification 6.8.2 and 6.8.3.c.would clarify the requirements for approval of those procedure: listed in Specification 6.8.1.

Specification 6.8.2 currently states that each procedure of Specification 6.8.1, and changes thereto (including temporary changes) shall be " approved by the Power Plant Manager."

However, not all of the procedures that meet the Specification 6.8.1 critieria are Plant Staff procedures. Such procedures would be associated with support organizations or programs for which managers other than the Power Plant Manager are directly responsible. But because the Power Plant Manager has overall responsibility for operation of the facility (as stated in the FSAR), his signature for concurrence, as a minimum, would still be required. The approval signature, however, would'be the responsible manager's.

IP believes this would meet the intent of the existing Specification.

However, to ensure conformance with the exact words of Specifications 6.8.2 and 6.8.3.c. a change to thz wording is proposed in support of the above described and proposed approval process. Specifically, the proposed change would replace the words " Power Plant Manager" where they appear in. Specifications 6.8.2 and 6.8.3.c vi'th " appropriate responsible manager".

Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration According to'10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no s1gnificant hazards consideration if-operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated: or (2) create the possibility of a new or dif ferent kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

increase in the The proposed change does not involve a significant (1) probability or' consequences of an accident previously evaluated because this is an administrative change clarifying procedure approval. No accident analyses are impacted.

(2) The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

This is an administrative clarification of procedure approval and does not affect plant design. Therefore, the possibility of a new type of accident has not been created.

s Attacnment 3 to U-601048 Page 122 of 157.

> PACKAGE NUMBER 19 Justification and Description of Change CPS has proposed a plant modification.to add test connections upstream of certain excess flow check valves (1CM002B, ISM 008, ISM 011, 1E22-F332, 1E51-F377B) to facilitate testing of these valves as required by Technical Specification 4.6.4 4.

The new test connections to be added will themselves contain isolation valves which must be added.to the Test Connections, Vents and Drains section of Table 3.6.4-1 in the CPS Technical Specifications. Marked-up pages from the Technical Specifications are attached.

In order to ensure compliance with the Technical Specifications (once-the amendment is approved) and yet provide some flexibility in the schedule for completing the modification, IP proposes that notes be included on the applicable pages allowing the proposed Technical Specification change to become effective once the modification is complete. At that time, the OPERABILITY requirements and provisions of the Technical Specifications shall be in effect for the subject.

valves.

Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards considerations if operation'of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would (1) involve a significant-increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident

-l previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction. in a margin of safety.

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the (1) l probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated for the following reasons, a)

With respect to maintaining containment integrity, the l

addition of the test connections supports testing required to verify the capability of the excess flow check valves to check flow at a particular differential pressure assumed for accident conditions, b)

The added test connections are double-valved, capped, and meet the applicable design / safety requirements to ensure containment integrity.

l Adding the valves to Table 3.6.4-1 also makes all of the

^

c) applicable Technical Specification requirements associated with containment integrity applicable to the new valves as well.

d)

Finally, the addition of the test connections does not affect l

the functional characteristics of the excess flow check valves and therefore does not affect operation of the associated systems.

l 1-

l. ]

[

to U-601048 Page 123 of 157 (2) It has been determined that the proposed change does not create the possibility-of new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. It was determined:that the addition of the test connections should be evaluated with respect to containment integrity and the operability of the excess flow check valves including their impact on the associated systems (Containment Monitoring, Suppression Pool Makeup,.High Pressure Core Spray and Reactor Core Isolation Cooling).. This impact hasLa1 ready been evaluated, and no further consideration of a new or different kind of accident is required.

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a

, (

margin of safety because the proposed change does not invclve,a change co any trip setpoints, analytical values, or design limits required or assumed in any safety analysis.

' 'cq division. In addition, the FSAR notes that the system is dojkgned to l

conformtoRegulatoryGuide1.22andcanthusbefunctionaljt rested during reactor operation. In accordance with IEEE 279, th6 sensors can be checked one at a time by, application of simuleted signals during/

normal plant operations. Channel independence as well as sufficient g

separation between subsystems is also ensured by conformance to thisj standard..Thus the instrumentation configuration is such that ringle failure criteria have been app. lied to its design and such that testing performed during plant operation on one subsystem will not affect the operability of the other subsystem.

Specification 4.0.4 states.that entry into an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicable condition shall not be made unless the Surveillance Requirement (s) associated with the Limiting, Condition for 1

Operation have been performed within the applicable surveillance interval or as otherwice specified.

Specification 4.11.2.7.2 requires the radioactivity rate of nobie gases from the off-gas recombiner effluent to be determined (to be within the limits specified in the Limiting Condition for Operation) at two specified frequencies:

(1) At least once per 31 days, and (2) Within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> following an increase of 30% in'the indicated nominal steady-state fission gas release from the primary coolant (with certain provisions).

The APPLICABILITY of this Specification (i.e., the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITION) is "during operation of the main condenser air ejector."

Although it is readily apparent that Surveillance 4.11.2.7.2 (associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation for Specification 3.11.7.2) cannot be performed until after entering the special applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITION, an exemption to Specification 4.0.4 should be inserted as shown (see marked-up page 3/4 11-17) to ensure compatibility between Specifications 4.0.4 and 4.11.2.7.2.

The exemption formally allows the plant to enter the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITION without having first performed the required surveillance.

The proposed change is consistent with the specification approved for the Perry Nuclear Power Station.

Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

1)

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

This is an administrative change to achieve consistency in the format and structure of the Technical Specifications involved. No accident analyses are affected.

2)

The preposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

This is an administrative formality and does not create a new accident scenario or affect plant design.

PACKAGE NDfBER 22 Description and Justification of Change 1

Two changes are proposed to revise the wording appearing in ACTION 70 on i

p. 3/4 3-72 of the CPS Technical Specifications.

l I

The first change applies to part "a" of the ACTION which states, "with

)

one of the required monitors inoperable, place the inoperable channel in the (downscale) tripped condition within I hour..."

The word l

"downscale" and the associated parenthesis should be deleted because f

they do not add meaning to the intent of the ACTION. The intent is to l

place the monitor in the same tripped state that would result if the l

monitor actually sensed high radioactivity at the Main Control Room air intake. The monitor is designed to trip in response to a number of conditions including the downscale condition. A trip therefore can be effected a number of ways including disconnecting the detector (which is effectively equivalent to a downscale trip) or interrupting power to the monitor. The Technical Specification does not need to specify how the monitor should be tripped. Clinton should be allowed to place the moniMr in the tripped condition as required and in an appropriate j

manner that will maintain it tripped (as long as it is required) with or 1

without the words "(downscale)" appearing in this Technical l

Specification. To avoid possible confusion, IP recommends deleting

"(downscale)".

The second change applies to part "b" of ACTION 70 and concerns use of the term " recirculation" in describing the mode of operation initiated by an air intake high radiation condition. The proposed change would make the wording consistent with the rest of the Technical Specifications by removing Standard Technical Specification phraseology and inserting plant specific wording. The term " recirculation" is misleading because several of the modes of operation specified in Technical Specification 3/4.7.2 involve a recirculation path. The high radiation mode, as referred to in Specification 4.7.2.e.5, is the mode of operation initiated by a high radiation condition sensed by the air intake radiation monitors. Therefore, " recirculation" should be replaced by "high radiation" to be more precise and avoid confusion.

Basis for No Significant Hazards Consideration According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed change to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or not consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

e to U-601048 Page 138 of 157 PACKAGE NUMEER 23 Description and Justification The' purpose of this proposed change to the CPS Technical Specifications l

1s to simplify the CHANNEL' FUNCTIONAL TEST requirements for the Low and' High Power Setpoint (turbine first-stage pressure channels) associated L

with the Rod Pattern Control System (RPCS) in Table 4.3.6-1 of the CPS -

Technical Specifications. The proposed change would delete notes "(d)"

as well'as note "(c)" and the corresponding "D" such that only and 'g)"M" would remain under the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST column for "S/U both the low and high power setpoint functions. Justification fcr these changes is provided below, i

Test requirements associated with the RPCS high and low power setpoints are identified not only in Specification 4.3.6, but also in Specification 4.1.4.2. The changes proposed for the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST requirements specified in Table 4.3.6-1 help'to resolve the scope of testing that should be performed under the two Specifications with no loss in adequacy;of the overall testing that is intended.

The high and low power trip inputs to the RPCS are derived from turbine first-stage. pressure. These channels may thus be regarded as turbine first-stage pressure instrumentation channels. The scope of the CEANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST performed under Specification 4.3.6 (Table 4.3.6-1) for each of these channels is determined by the definition of a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST as defined by the Technical Specifications (DEFINITION 1.6).

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST, as performed to verify OPERABILITY of the turbine first-stage pressure instrumentation, however, should not be confused with nor performed at the same frequency as the testing performed to verify proper operation of the RPCS with respect to the low and high power setpoints. C,onfusion results from the fact that a t rbine first-stage pressure trip module (s) has to be tripped in order uto test operation of the RFCS enforced at the low or high power setpoint. The trips will only be in place when plant conditions are such that the trip setpoints are actually exceeded or during the performance of a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST of the turbine first-stage Although the turbine first-stage pressure low pressure instrumentation.

and high power trips are required and verified as part of the testing performed to verify OPERABILITY of the RFCS in accordance with Specification 4.1.4.2, it is inappropriate to identify this testing as testing performed to satisfy CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST requirements specified within Table 4.3.6-1, especially when the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is defined as stated. For this reason and the reason discussed below, there is no need to make the CHANNEL TUNCTIONAL TEST frequencies for the turbine first-stage pressure instruments agree with the frequencies specified for the testing perfarmed for the RFCS nnder

{

Specification 4.1.4.2.

k

.At Clinton, the trip' modules associated with the turbine first-stage pressure instrumentation fall within the test scope of the Self-Test j

System (because they are located within the Nuclear System Protection l

(See j

System [NSPS}) and are therefore continuously monitored / tested.

The RPCS is a subsystem of the Rod Control and Information System

~(RCIS). The RCIS contains its own self-test system which, with respect to the RPCS, provides "a means of comparing' the outputs of the RPCS logic devices as a way of monitoring the performance of the two channels. Both chaanels must be operable and have identical outputs before rod motion is permitted. Failed comparison and circuit failures or inoperative conditions will be indicated in the main control room."

The RCIS/RPCS for Clinton is an improvement.over earlier designs since it automatically performs test 1ng which satisfies.the intent of note

"(e)".-

In addition, the intent of note "(e)" is also satisfied when testing is performed in accordance with Specification 4.1.4.2.

The note is misleading, unnecessary, adds confusion to the existing requirements j

in Table 4.3.6 1, and should thus be deleted.

l It should be noted that note "(e)" has been deleted from Table 4.3.6-1 in both Grand Gulf Nuclear Station and the Perry Nuclear Power Plant Technical Specifications. The proposed change is therefore consistent with previously approved Technical Specifications.

I Mote (d) attached to the "M" in the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST column of Table 4.3.6-1 states that the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST for the high and L

low power setpoint/ turbine first-stage pressure instruments shall be performed "at least once per 31 days while operation continues within a given powe.r range above the RPCS low power setpoint." For the sake of simplicity, the note should be deleted. Without "(d)" attached to the "M", the GANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST will be performed at least once every J

31 days for the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITONS. The OPERATIONAL

/

I CONDITIOUS specified encompass the core specific conditions of

" operation...within a given power range of the RPCS low power setpoint."

Although deleting the note cculd require the CHANNEL FUNCTIOVAL !E3I(3' j

(d'^

W u.

to be performed more often than required with the ncte for example, was in operation for an extended period of time in mode 1 or 2 but at c power level below that corresponding to the low power i

setpoint), Plant Operations feels that simplifying the requirement is Therefore the proposed change would delete note "(d)".

l more important.

It should be noted that note "(d)" has been removed from the Perry Nuclear Power Plant Technical Specifications.

Finally, note "(b)".should be reworded by replacing the existing words, j

"within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> prior to startup, if net performed within the previous

7 days," with "within 7 days prior to startup." IP feels that the J

existing words are potentially confusing, and that the proposed note j

will ensure that the instrumentation is OPERABLE for'its intended 1

function to the same degree of confidence as with the current note.

)

Although the intent of the note is to have the CHANNEL FITNCTIONAL TEST performed as close to startup as possible (within 24 hourh,), the l

efficacy of the note is undermined somewhat by the words "if not performed within the previous 7 days." The note requires anticipating time of a startup so as to implement the first part of the the exact note. This is not always possible. That is, plant startup could be l

Although the proposed note is not an exact equivalent of the current I

note', IP feels-that the proposed change is justified in view of the t

L reliability'of the instrumentation as discussed above, the fact that the surveillance test interval for the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS is much longer than the time constraints of the note, and that removal of the note will make the Technical Specification easier to implement with no significant difference in the effectiveness of the r

proposed note compared to the. current one. The wording of the proposed l

i note is identical to that of note "(b)" appearing in the Technical Specifications approved for the Perry Nuclear Power Plant.

Basis For No'Significant Consideration j

1 According to 10CFR50.92, a proposed chan'ge to the license (Technical Specifications) involves no significant hazards. consideration if -

. operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed change would (1) involve a significant increase in the probability 'or not

, consequences of an accident previous y eva uate ; or (2) create the l

l d

possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident

{

l previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

.(1) The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated because of the following reasons.

(a) The purpose of the rod pattern control system is to reduce the consequences of the postulated rod drop accident to an acceptable level by restricting the patterns of control rods that can be established to predetermined sets. This condition is enforced at low power levels in the range below the low power setpoint. The. proposed change is not applicable to this range except at,the upper bound, i.e., the low power setpoint (LPSP). It has been determined, however, that under the proposed change, adequate testing will be performed (both manually and automatically) to ensure that the change in mode of operation occurs at the LPSP in accordance with the intent of the Technical Specifications; i.e., the rod withdrawal limiter mode of operation will yield to the rod pattern control system mode of operation when sensed power decreases below the LPSP (and vice versa when sensed power increases above the LFSP).

(b) The purpose of the rod withdrawal limiter (RWL) is to restrict continuous rod withdrawals to prevent excessive changes in the heat flux at power levels above the LPSP (when no further restrictions on red pattern are imposed). This mode of operation (including che range between the LPSP and the high power setpoint [HPSP] and the range above the HPSP) will not be affected by the proposed change. It has been determined j

that under the proposed change, adequate testing will be the

]

performed (both manually and automatically) to ensure thateach rod withdrawal limiter performs its intended function at povar range above the LPSP in accordance with the intent of the Technical Specifications.

_ PACKAGE NUMBER 24 Description and Justification for Proposed Change l

The purpose of this proposed change (s) is to correct typographical errors and clarify existing requirements regarding Note (a) in Table 3.6.4-1 of the Technical Specifications. Under this proposed change:

l (1) 'Nute "(a)" as it appears in the " APPLICABLE OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS" column of Table 3.6 4-1 (Containment Isolation Valves) would be relocated as shown on'the attached marked-up pages (3/4 6-42 through 3/4 6-51),

(2) the note itself, as it is written on p. 3/4 6-61 under " TABLE NOTATION 3", would be modified as a result of the relocation, (3) a typographical error identified on page 3/4 6-42 would also be corrected.

These are discussed in more detail below.

The way that tha "(a)" is located now makes it appear as if note (a) is applicable only to OPERATIONAL CONDITION 3 (or, for the 1B21-F063 valves, in the OPERATIONAL CONDITION designated "#"). This is a typographical error carried over from corrections that had been made to the draft Technical Specifications. At one time, the APPLICABLE OPERA {IfRAL CONDITIONS had erroneously been specified as "At All Times

". When this was corrected to show the correct applicabic OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS, i.e., "1,2,3" (or "1,2,3,#"), "(a)" was left in place giving the appearance that "(a)" is attached only to "3" (or "#").

The intent of note "(a)" is'to. allow the applicable valves to be opened on an intermittent basis under administrative control during the applicable operational conditions.

(For most valves that are not secondary containment bypass paths, the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS are 1,2,3 because, as specified by Technical' Specification 3.6.1.1, PRIMARY CONTAIN>ENT INTEGRITY is required for OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS 1,2,3.

  • Other valves may have other OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS as required, but the intent of the note still applies unless specially excepted.) Rather than attach "(a)" to every applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITION number or symbol listed for every applicable valve, "(a)" may be relocated as shown. Since note "(a)" is applicable to all of the test connection, vent and drain valves and their corresponding applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS listed in Table 3.6.4-1, note "(a)"

can be attached to the " Test Connections, Vents, and Drains" heading appearing on pages 3/4 6-42 through 3/4 6-51.

To ensure that there is no doubt that the note is applicable during any and all of the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS for the applicable valves, the wording of,the note itself on p. 3/4 6-61 vill be modified by adding "during applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS." (It is understood that the note is not needed for OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS other then the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS.)

See DEFINITION 1.31 for PRIMARY CONTAIN>ENT INTEGRITY on p. 1-5 of the CPS Technical Specifications. The part of the definition that says,

"...except as provided in Table 3.6.4-3 of Specification 3.6.4" corresponds to note "(a)".

k While reviewing ' Table 3.6.4-1 for applicability of the changes described above, a typographical error was noted on page 3/4 6-42: A "(b)" is attached to the " Test, Connections, Vants, and Drains" heading where it

{

is intended to insert "(a)"...This is clearly a typc, graphical error

<4 ;

. since note "(b)" does not apply to the test connection, vent and drain valves.

(Note "(b)" appli'es to the excess-flow check valves listed in Whe "Other Isolation Valves" section of the table ) No other notes j

i listed on p.'3/4.6-51 categorically apply to the test connection, vents, and drains other.than note "(a)".

Under the proposed change, "b" would j

1 be appropriately replaced by "a".

(3) The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety because no setpoint, design or analytical limit assumed or required by any analysis is affecced by the proposed q

change. 'The intent of the existing Technical Specification

p (c) Isolation valving for instrument lines which penetrate the containment con-form to the requirements of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.11.

The in-service in-spection program will provide assurance of the operability and integrity o i 4

of these isolation provisions. Type "C" testing will not be performed on

' h' the instrument line isolation valves. The. instrument lines will be within the' boundaries of the Type "A" test, cpen to the media (containment atme-sphere or suppression pool water) to which they will be exposed under pos-tulated accident conditions.

Instrun nt taps from the process line located between the process isolation valves and the penetration, and not them-i selves penetrating containment, will be Type "A" and/or "C" tested along with the process line isolation valves.

test. This will expose the closed loop outsids containment to containment f

pressure through the suppression pool. This is the closest valve alignment to the post-LOCA alignment possible. Type C water test resu1Ls on there 7

' mtion valve.s will not be added to the Type A tast results.
