NRC STAFF RESPONSE TO NECNP'S FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES AND DOCUMENT REQUEST TO THE. NRC STAFF On June 16, 1987,' the New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollution

. (NECNP)~ submitted its First Set of Interrogatories and Document Request to the' Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Staff.

The Staff notes that it need answer. interrogatories only if-the presiding officer, in this case

'the Licensing- Board, orders the Staff to' do so based on findings that answers to the interrogatories are necessary to a proper decision in the

. proceeding: and that answers to the . interrogatories are not reasonably obtainable from any other source. 10 C.F.R. 9 2.720(h)(2)(ll) (1987). i The Staff notes further that the Licensing Board has issued no such order in this case, nor made the required findings. The Staff is not a l party that answers interrogatories pursuant to 10 C.F.R. 9 2.740b. The l 1

Commission's regulation concerning production of NRC records and I

On' July 21, '1987, the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Board

. ( Appeal Board) . issued a decision II ( ALAB-869) in which 'It affirmed the

. Licensing Board's admission of a safety contention concerning the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) system to this spent fuel pool license amendment proceeding .but reversed the Licensing Board's admission of two

-environmental contentions. Because NE,CNP's questions in its first set of

. interrogatories related to .the environmental contentions are no longer

. relevant 'to this. proceeding, the Staff has not responded to them. See 10 C.F.R 9 2.740(b)(1). Thus, In answering NECN P's first set of interrogatories, the Staff answers .only those interrogatories relevant to

' the safety contention concerning the RHR. Id.

RESPONSE

The 'following is a listing of the criteria which the Plant Systems Dranch applies to review of spent fuel pool expansions:

(1) 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix A (General Design Criteria 2, 4, 44, 45, 46, 61, 62 and 63)

(2) Regulatory Guides 1.13 and 1.29 (3) NUREG-0800, Standard Review Plan (Sections 9.1.2, 9.1.3, 9.1.4, 9.1.5, and Branch Technical Position ASB 9-2)

(4) N UREG-0612, " Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants" (5) Memorandum for ASB Members from O. D. Parr, dated November 17, 1983 (copy enclosed)

INTERROGATORY 26:

Does the single failure criterion apply to the VY spent fuel pool cooling systems? Provide the reasons for your answer and any documents in support thereof.

RESPONSE

Yes . Spent fuel pool cooling system reviews are performed utilizing the Standard Review Flan (NUREG-0800). Section 9.1.3 states , in part, that the review will include consideration of provisions to preclude loss of function resulting from single active failures. Further, the acceptance criteria for the spent fuel pool cooit.ng system (Paragraph II.1.d) state, in part, that the design is acceptable if it is in accordance with General Design Criterion 44, including suitable redundancy of components so that safety functions can be performed assuming a single active failure of a component coincident with the loss of offsite power. Copies of the requested documents are pro' 8ded in Enclosure 1.

, . -n-INTERROGATORY 27:

~

Is it.the staff's position that VY must demonstrate that the spent i fuel pool water .will be maintained at all times at 140 F or below? 150 F or below? Explain the reasons for your answer and identity and provide the rule criteria and/or guidance, whether or not formally promulgated, which support your. response.

RESPONSE

~

It is the staff's position that the licensee must maintain the spent fuel pool water temperature equal to or less than 140 F under normal storage conditions in conformance with Standard Review Plan Section 9.1.3, Paragraph lli.1.d, or provide adequate justification for a different water temperature limit.

INTERROGATORY 28 On the assumption of an 18-month refueling schedule and a full core discharge, for what period of time will the RHR system be required to oc keep _ the pool water below 140 F7 Provide all documents which support your answer.

RESPONSE

For a full spent fuel poo; (2870 fuel bundles) during normal refueling, the RHR system would be required for approximately 149 days from shutdown to keep the pool water temperature btlow 140oF as determined by calculations. Since a full core offload is indicative of a potential problem, an extended o,utage is anticipated and therefore the RHR is available indefinitely (since there is nothing left in the reactor to l

cool) . Since a single failure is not assumed for the abnormal heat load case (full core offload) and the 140 F temperature limit does not apply per SRP Section 9.1.3, no calculations have been performed related to the time that the RHR would be required to keep the pool water temperature

, below 140oF. Copies of the requested documents are provided in Enclosures 1 and 2.

INTERROGATORY 29:

On the assumption of an 18-month refueling schedule and a discharge of 136 assemblies for what period of time will the RHR system be required to keep the pool water below 140oF?

RESPONSE

No analysis was performed for the heat load based on a dischargc of 136 fuel bundles per reload. Refer to the response to interrogatory No. 28.

INTERROGATORY 30:

Provide all documents, analyses, and/or evaluations in the staff's possession which cvaluate the probability and/or consequences of failures in the RHR system during the period of time that the system is required I

to augment the cooling of the spent fuel pool.

RESPONSE

The staff has not performed an analysis or evaluation related to the probability and/or consequences of failures in the RHR system during the period of time that the system is required to augment the cooling of the spent fuel pool. Thus, no documents are available.

INTERROGATORY 31:

Provide all documents analyses and/or evaluations in the staff's possession which evaluate the probability and/or consequences of accidents at VY in particular and boiling water reactors in general when the plant is not operating.

l

y

RESPONSE

The. 0ffice of Analysis and Evaluation' of Operating Data issued a i

report AEOD/C503 in December 1985 which discusses the effects of loss of

' decay heat removal systems for PWRs. This report identifies a number of loss-of-all-decay-heat-removal incidents at PWRs and has theoretical i application 'to ' BWRs as well. A copy of this report is provided in Enclosure 1.

INTERROGATORY 32:

Is it the staff's position that the spent fuel pool cooling system at VY meets the single failure criterion with the spent fuel storage facility filled with normal refueling and maintainir.g the pool water temperature at less than 140 F? (See Question 17 and response thereto, VY " Response to Request for Additional Information - Proposed Change No.133, Spent Fuel Pool Expansion." Enclosure 1, (November 24, 1986, FVY 86-107).

Explain 'your answer and provide any documents in support thereof.

RESPONSE

No. As determined by calculation, the spent fuel pool cooling j system does- not have sufficient capacity to cool the normal spent fuel heat load and maintain pool water temperature below 140oF in the event of ]

l a single failure. Copies of the requested documents are provided in l 1

Enclosures 1 and 2. l INTERROGATORY 33:

Is it the staff's position that the spent fuel pool cooling system at VY is required to meet the single failure criterion with the spent fuel storage facility fTIfed with normal refueling and maintaining the pool water i temperature at less than 140oF?

RESPONSE

lt is the staff's position that the systems utilized to cool the spent fuel . pool, which may include systems in addition to the spent fuel pool i

l

U p

L

~7-cooling system itself, must be single failure proof (reference General Design Cr,iterion 44, " Cooling Water").. The 140oF pool water temperature i'

limit is' not a requirement. Refer to response to interrogatory No. 27.

L

, INTERROGATORY 34:

Answer the questions posed in No. 32 and 33 above, but on the ,

assumption of a full core discharge. l RES PONSE -

a. The VY sr>ent fuel pool cooling system is not single failure proof for the full core officad case. Copies of the requested documents are provided in Enclosures 1 and 2.
b. It is the staff's position that the spent fuel pool cooling system need l

not be single failure proof for the full core offload case. Further, the 1400F pool water temperature limit guideline is not applicable for a full core discharge. (Reference Standard Review Plan 9.1.3, Paragraph lil.1.d.) )

. INTERROGATORY 35:

Has the staff approved other applications for reracking where it is necessary to use the RHR system to maintain the pool cooling water temperature below 140oF? If so, identify all such cases.

' RESPONSE The review of the applications for reracking has taken place over a i

. number of years and by a number of reviewers. However, to our

. knowledge, the staff has not approved any other application for reracking where it will be necessary to use the RHR for spent fuel pool cooling as a

routine operation. However, other plants may need the RHR system to maintain p,ool temperature limits following a full core offload.

INTERROGATORY 36:

VY states in response to staff question 17 (FVY 86-107, November 24, 1986, cited supra): "

...VY does not consider the fuel pool cooling system to be single active failure proof (depending on RBCCW temp) until after approximately 42 days decay of a normal spent fuel discharge."  ;

Does the staff consider the system single active failure proof? Explain '

your reasons and provide any documents in support thereof.

RESPONSE

No. Approximately 68 days after shutdown, one train of spent fuel

_ pool cooling will be adequate to maintain a bulk pool temperature of 150 F and thus will meet the single failure criterion. During the time period immediately following reactor shutdown until 68 days, calculations indicate .

that at times both trains of the spent fuel' pool cooling system will not be adequate to maintain the peo! water temperature below 150 F. One train of the RHR ' system will be required to maintain the pool water temperature below 1500F. Copies of the requested documents are provided in Enclosures 1 and 2.

INTERROGATORY 37:

Has the staff previously approved reracking applications where the resultant pool cooling system was not single active failure proof? If so, Identify all such cases.

RESPONSE

No.

f

, INTERROGATORY 38:

During the period of time when the RHR system is required to cool the spent ~ fuel pool to below 140oF, are the reactor cooling systems, including but not limited to decay h< sat removal system single failure proof? Explain the reasons for your answer and provide any documents in support thereof.

RESPONSE

No. While General Design Criterien 44 requires plant cooling I systems to be single failure proof, it does not specify for which plant

]

operational conditions the cooling systems are to be single failure proof, it has been the staff's practice not to require the plant to meet the single l l

failure criterion wher[ the reactor is 'in cold shutdown or refueling l l

conditions as shown by not requiring redundancy in the Standard Technical Specifications. This is based on the assumption that accidents i

at power potentially will result in significant health and safety j l

consequences and that accidents in either cold shutdown or refueling i I

I conditions potentially will not result in significant health and safety l

consequences. (No documents specifically address this issue).

INTERROGATORY 39:

Assume that VY is shutdown for refueling, the spent fuel has been discharged and it is within the period of time that one train of the RHR system is required to augment spent fuel pool cooling:

a. How will VY assure adequate cooling of both the core and the spent fuel pool in the event of failure of one RHR train?
b. Provide all evaluations, analyses or other documents related to the above question,
c. Has the staff (or contractors) reviewed the VY operating or emergency procedures which apply to this situation? If so, provide the procedures and/or any documents reflecting the sta ff's (or contractors') evaluation or analyses. l

-d. What is the probability of failure of one RHR train? Explain your answer and provide all documents in support thereof.

l l

l l

l

, RESPONSE 1

a. The Staff does not require the RHP to be single-failure-proof when the reactor is in cold shutdown or refseling condition. Refer to the response to interrogatory No. 38. Based on independent calculations, a loop of the RHR system is needed to provide redundancy for the spent fuel pool cooling system until 68 days into the refueling outage. The requirements of General Design Criterion 44 are satisfied by having both loops of the spent fuel pool cooling system and one loop of RHR in the spent fuel pool cooling mode operational for the first 68 days. The licensee can assure adequate cooling of the core and the spent fuel pool by taking suction from the reactor vessel vilth the RHR system, returning the cooled water to the spent fuel pool, and allowing the water to return to the reactor vessel via the open gate between the two. While both trains of the RHR system are available to cool the core, only the "A" RHR train can normally operate in the spent fuel pool cooling mode.

Should this RHR train be unavailable during the first 68 days of the refueling outage, either 1) the spent fuel pool temperature could exceed the 150 F limit with only the spent fuel pool cooling system in operation and the "B" RHR loop providing cooling to the reactor, or

2) the "B" RHR loop can be cross-connected via an obscure piping arrangement to cool both the spent fuel pool and the core similarly to the "A" RHR loop flow path. The licensee recently identified this approach to the Staff but has not specified whether operating procedures exist to provide instructions to the operator to define

- when and how the "B" RHR loop will be used to cool the spent fuel pool and the core simultaneously.

1

b. Copies' of the: requested documents are provided in ' Enclosure 3.

Other documents related to this request may be found in the NRC's public document room located at 1717 H Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.

-C. No.

d. The staff has not determined the probability of failure of one RHR i

train.

. l PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS JOHN N. RIDGELY PLANT SYSTEMS BRANCH DIVISION OF ENGINEERING AND SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY I am employed as a Mechanical Engineer in the Plant Systems Branch, Division of Engineering and Systems Technology, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. My duties consist of reviewing and evaluating the associated safety considerations on nuclear power and fuel handling systens and associated engineering fields on power reactors. I am responsible for providing technical input to various documents including Safety Evaluation Reports.

I attended the Virginia Polytechnic Institute in Blacksburg, Virginia and received a B.S. degree in Nuclear Science in 1972. In July of 1972, I joined the Philadelphia Electric Company's Mechanical Engineering Division as a Mechanical Engineer.

At the Philadelphia Electric Company, I worked with both fossil and nuclear power plants. I designed systems, prepared specifications, performed computer analysis, and managed contracts. During this time I developed and patented a process for removing tritium from High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactors. I wrote purchase order specifications for high density spent fuel storage racks for the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, reviewed the' bids, awarded the contract, and performed a field audit at the manufacturer's i facility. I also performed the preliminary work for the high density spent fuel storage racks at the Limerick Generating Station. ] l I

From August 1977 through November 1980, I was employed by the Potomac I Electric Power Company in Washington, D.C., as a Mechanical Engineer. During {

this time, I worked exclusively with fossil power plants. My duties in this  !

position were similar to those at Philadelphia Electric Company. In addition, I have designed water treatment subsystems and assisted in other system designs including water intate and discharge treatment systems.

From December 1980 to the present, I have been employed by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission. I have been in the Auxiliary Systems i Branch of the Division of Systems Integration until November 24, 1985 when the )

Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation was reorganized and I was assigned to the Plants Systems Branch, Division of BWR Licensing. On April 12, 1987 the Nuclear Regulatory Commission was reorganized and I was assigned to my present )

position. I have revised portions of the Standard Review Plan and have been l the Task Manager for the resolution of two Generic Issues. My duties include l safety reviews and evaluations of the design and operation of systems at '

nuclear power plant facilities. As required, I prepare safety evaluations and l make presentations to the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards and to the Committee fer the Review of Generic Requirements. I am presently managing a contract for subcompartment environmental analysis and reviewing applications for proposed modifications to technical specifications and spent fuel pool expansions. Todate, I have reviewed the design of the spent fuel storage f acilities for 12 reactor sites, have per, formed the analytical review for six additional facilities, and am currently reviewing three additional facilities. ,

This represents 75 spent fuel storage facilities. I I

REVISION 2 The purpose of this memorandum is to provide a unifomity of understanding withia ASB concerning the use of BTP 9-2.

The BTP ASB 9-2.was written to provide guidance in detemining the heat

^

genereted by spent fuel after an accident which results in the offloading

.of'the core.. By using the uncertainty factor specified in SRP 9.1.3, the i BTP ASB 9-2 has been used for determining the heat generated by spent fuel in tLa spent fuel pool for verifying the sizing of the spent fuel pool cooling system. i The equation in the BTP ASB 9-2 uses the time that the fuel was irradiated as one of the parameters,- The BTP ASB 9-2 suggests using 16,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> for the

.rradiation time. The 16,000 hour0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> irradiation time was based on a PWR with annual refuelings of-one-third core and was to be the average irradiation r

time of the entire core for emergency core offloading heat generation.

The irradiation time to be used for spent fuel pool cooling system verifica-tion calculations should be the actual anticipated irradiation time for each batch, based on the equilibrium cycle. For example, a reactor with annual refuelings of one-fourth core would have an irradiation time of 4.0 years (35,040 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br />) while a reactor with an 18 month fuel cycle and a batch of one-third of a core would have an irradiation time of 4.5 years (39,*20 hours).

This notwithstanding, the utility's irradiation time correction factors (such as for capacit" factors) should also be applied.

I would like to remind everyone that the calculation of decay heat loads for the spent fuel pool cooling system does not have to be manually calculated.

We have a computer program operational on the IMB-PC and Apple 11 computers which will automatically perform this calculation for us.

Suenor 3 - Chemice Engineering Braraa (CMEB)

AREAS OF REVIEW Ali nuclear reactor plants include a spent fuel pool for the wet storage of spent fuel assenblies. The methods used to provide cooling 'or the removal of decay heat from tne stored assemblies vary from plant to plant depending upon the individual design. The safety function to be performed by the system in all cases remains the sar..c; that is, the spent fuel assemblies must be cooled and must remain covered with water during all starage conoitions. Other f unctions performed by the system, nut related to safety, includt water cleanup for the spent fuel pool, refueling canal, refueling water storage tank and other equipment storage pools; means for filling and draining the refuiling canal and other storage pools; and surface skim-ming to provide clear water in the storage pool.

4 Ihe ASE revie of the spent ft.el pool cooling and cleanup system covers the system from ir.let to and exit from tre storage pool and pits, the seismic Category I water suurce ar.) piping used for fuel pool makeup, the cleanup system filter-cemineralizers and th9 regenerative process to the point of discharge to the radwaste system.

7 The capability of the spent fuel pool cooling and cleanup system to provide adequate cooling to the spent fuel during all operating conditions is reviewed on nne of two bases. The first basis requires the cooling portion of the sys-ten, to be designed to seismic Category I, Quality Group C requirements. The seco'd basis allows a non-seismic Category I, Quality Group C, spent fuel pool coolire system provided that the following systems are designed to seismic Category I requirements and are protected against tornadoes: the fuel pool make-up water system and its source; and, the fuel pool building and its ven-tilatien and filtration system. The makeup, ventilation and filtration sys-tems must also withstand a single active failure.

REVIEW PROCEDURES The procedures set forth below are used during the construction permit (CP) application review to determine that the design criteria and bases and the pre-liminary design as set forth in the preliminary safety analysis' report meet the acceptance. criteria given in subsection II of this SRP section. For the review of operating license (OL) applications, the review procedures and acceptance criteria and bases have been appropriately implemented in the final

' design as set forth in the final safety analysis report. The review procedures for OL. applications include a determination that the content and intent of the technical specifications prepared by the applicant are in agreement with the requirements for system testing, minimum performance, and surveillance developed as a result of the staff's review.

Upon request from the primary reviewer, the coordinating revies branches will provide. input for the areas of review stated in subsection I of this SRP section.

.The secondary review branch, CMEB, will provide an input on a routine basis for those areas of review indicated in this SRP section. The primary reviewer (ASB) obtains and uses such input as required to assure that this review procedure is complete.

lhe' review procedures given below are for a typicel system. Any variance of

( ths review, to take account of a proposed unique design, will be such as to 9.1.3-5 Rev. 1 - July 1981 ;

assure that the system meets the criteria of subsection II of this SRP section.

.In the evio ,,the spent fue1 pool cooling and cleanup system and its makeup system are evaluated with respect to their capability to perform the necessary ,

safety functions during all conditions, including normal operation, refueling, abnorm 4 storage conditions; and accident conditions.

1 The malety-function of the system for refueling and normal operations is identified by reviewing the information provided in the SAR pertaining tc the design bases and criteria and the safety evaluation section. The SAR section on the system functional. performance requirements is also reviewed to determine that it describes the minimum system heat transfer and system flow requirements for normal plant operation, component operational degrada-tion requirements (i.e., pump leakage, etc.) and describes the procedures, that will be followed to detect and correct these conditions should degrada-tion become excessive. The reviewer, using failure modes and effects analyses, determines that the~ system is capable-of sustaining the loss of any active component and evaluates, on the basis of previously approved systems or-independent calculations, that the minimum system requirements (cooling load and flow) are met for these failure conditions. The. system piping and instrumentation diagrams (P& ids), layout drawings, and component descriptions are then reviewed for the following points:

a. Essential' portions of the system are correctly identified and are isolable from the nonessential portions of the system. The P& ids are reviewed to verify that they clearly indicate the physical divi-sion between each portion and indicate required classification' changes.

System drawings are also reviewed to see that they show the means for accomplishing isolation and the system description is reviewed to identify minimum performance requirements for the isolation valves.

For the typical system, the drawings and description are reviewed to verify that adequate isolation valves-separate non-essential portions and components from the essential portions.

b. Heat exchangers, pumps, valves and piping for the cooling portion of

,the system are constructed to Quality Group C and designed to seismic Category I', requirements in accordance with the guidance provided in Regulatory Guides 1.26 and 1.29. As an acceptable alternative, the cooling loop may be constructed to Quality Group C and nonseismic Category I requirements provided the spent fuel pool water makeup system, and the building ventilation and filtration system are designed to seismic Category I requirements, are protected from the effects of tornadoes and meet the single failure requirements. The ventilation and filtration system must also meet the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.52. The review for seismic design is performed by SEB and the review for seismic and quality group classification is performed by MEB is indicated in subsection I of this SRP section.

'c. The stated quantity of fuel to be cooled by the spent fuel cooling system is consistent with the quantity of fuel stored, as stated in Section 9.1.2 of the SAR.

d. For the maximum normal heat load with normel cooling systems in opera-tien, and assuming a single active failure, the temperature of the pool should be kept at or below 140 F and the liquid level in the pool should be maintained. For the abnormal maximum heat load (full 9.1.3-6 Rev. 1 - July 1981

L h

core unicad) the temperature of the pool water should be kept below Doiling and the liquid level maintained with normal systems in opera-

.('. ticr.' A single active failure need not be considered for the abnormal E case- The. associated parameters for the decay heat load of the fuel E assemblies,-the temperature of the pool water, and the heatup time or rate of pool temperature rise for'the stated storage condition; are reviewed on the basis of independent analyses or comparative analyses of-pool conditions that have been previously found acceptable.

e. The spent fuel pool and cooling systems have been designed so that in the event of-failure of inlets, outlets, piping, or drains, the pool level will not be inadvertently drained below a point approxi-mately 10 feet above the top of .the active fuel. . Pipes or external 1ines extending into the poo1 that are equipped with siphon breakers, j' check valves, or other devices to prevent drainage are acceptable as l7 a means of implementing this requirement.

1 L f. .A seismic Category I makeup system and an appropriate backup method b to add' coolant to the spent fuel pool are provided. The backup system need not be a' permanently installed system, nor Category I, but must

..  ? 'take water from a. Category I source. Engineering judgment and compari-son with plants of similar design are used to determine that the makeup i capacities and the time required to make associated hookups are con-sistent with heatup times or expected leakage from structural damage,

g. .Desic)n provisions have been made that permit appropriate inservice inspection and functional testing of system components important to l jz safety. It will be acceptable if the SAR provides a statement that

( the spent fuel. pool cooling, makeup, and cleanup system is-included in the inservice inspection program per SRP Section 6.6 and the inservice testing program.of SRP Section'3.6.6. These SRP sections are reviewed by the MTEB and MEB respectively.

n. .The calculation for the maximum amount of thermal energy to be removed by the spent fuel' cooling system will be made in accordance with Branch Technical Position ASB 9-2, " Residual Decay Energy for Light-Water Reactors for Long-Term Cooling" (located in SRP Section 9.2.5) under the following assumed conditions.
i. The uncertainty f actor K is set equal to 0.1 for long-term cooling (greater than 107seconds).

ii The normal maximum spent fuel heat load is set at one refueling load at equilibrium conditions after 150 hours0.00174 days <br />0.0417 hours <br />2.480159e-4 weeks <br />5.7075e-5 months <br /> decay and one ref ueling lead to equilibrium conditions af ter one year decay (Maximum pool temperature 140*F) iii- The spent fuel pool cooling system should have the capacity to remove the decay heat,from one full core at equilibrium conditions after 150 hours0.00174 days <br />0.0417 hours <br />2.480159e-4 weeks <br />5.7075e-5 months <br /> decay and one refueling load at equilibrium condi-tions after 36 days decay, without spent fuel pool bulk water boiling. ' Cooling system single failure need not be considered concurr ent fur' t his condi tion.

k The-rev, ewer verifies that the system has been designed so that system

. fur ctions will be maintained, as required, in the event of adverse natural phenomena _such as earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, and floods. The ,

reviewer evaluates the~ system, using engineering judgment and the results o' failure modes and effects analyses to determine the following:

s. The failurb of portions'of the system, or-of other systems not designed to seismic Category'I standards and located close to essential portions of the system, or.of non-seismic Category I structures that house, support, or~are close to essential portions ofLthe pool and cooling D system,.will not preclude essential functions. Reference to SAR Chapter 2,' describing site features and the general arrangement and layout drawings, will be necessary as well as.to the SAR tabulation

.of seismic design classifications for structures and systems. State-ments in the SAR to the effect that the.above conditions are met are acceptable. '(CP)  !

b. .Tne essential portions of the spent fuel pool cooling system are protected from the effects of floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and internally or externally generated missiles. Flood protection and missile protection criteria are discussed and evaluated in detail-under'the SRP sections for Chapter 3 of the SAR.

The reviewer utilizes the procedures identified in these plans to

?-, assure that the analysts presented cre valia. A statement to the effect that the system is located in a seismic Category I structure that is tornado missile and flood protected, or that components of the system will be located in individual cubicles or rooms that will withstand the effects of both flooding and-missiles is acceptable.

The location and~ design of the system, structures, and pump rooms (cubicles)'are reviewed to determine that the degree of protection provided is adequate.

N. The system design information and drawings.are analyzed to assure that the following features will be_ incorporated. A statement that these features will be included.in the design by some appropriate means is a basis for acceptance. (CP)

a. A leakage detection system is provided to detect component or system f leakage. An adequate means for implementing this requirement is to i provide sumps or drains with adequate capacity and appropriate alarms 1 in the immediate area of the system.
b. Components and headers of the system are designed to provide individual isolation capabilities to assure system function, control system leakage, and allow system maintenance.
c. Design provisions are made to assure the capability to detect leakage of radioactivity or chemical contamination from one system to another and to preclude long-term corrosion, organic fouling, or the spreading of radioactivity. Radioactivity monitors and conductivity monitors located in the system discharge lines are acceptable means for imple-menting this requirement. ,

-h.- availability of-these components on~ system drawings, and check that minimum

-system flow, makeup,'and heat transfer requirements are met for each degraded situation over the requireo time. spans. For each case the design

- will be acceptable.if minimum systea requirements are met. ,

5. 'The spent fuel pool cleanup system'and various auxiliary systems are designated as'nons9fety related systems and are designed accordingly (nonseismic Category I). These systems are evaluated to assure that.

.their' failure cannot affect the functional performance of any safety-related system or component. The relationship and proximity between the nonsafety-related system and safety-related systems or components-arE determined by reviewing the integrated' structure and compone_nt layout' diagrams. Independent analyses, engineering judgement, and comparisons with previously approved systems are used to verify that where a nonsafety-related system interconnects or interfaces with the cooling system, its failure by any event or malfunction will not' preclude adequate functional  ;

performance of the cooling system.

7. The cleanup system is also reviewed to assure that it has been designed with the capability to maintain acceptable pool water conditions. The P&lDS and associated information provided in the SAR is reviewed to verify the following:
a. A'means has been provided for mixing to produce a uniform temperature throughout the pool.
b. The cleanup system is reviewed by CMEB to verify they have the capacity and capability to remove corrosion products, radioactive materials, and impurities so that water clarity and quality will enable safe operating conditions in the pool. This includes instrumentation and sampling to monitor the water purity and need for demineralized resin replacement'. including the chemical and radiochemical limits such as conductivity,. gross gamma and iodine activity, demineralized dif-ferential pressure, pH and crud level which are used to initiate c< ective action,
c. The capability for processing the refueling canal coolant during refueling operations has been provided.
d. Provisions to preclude the inadvertent transfer of spent filter and demineralized media to any place other than the radwaste facility have been provided.

IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS L

The reviewer verifies that sufficient information.has been provided and that his review supports conclusions of the following type, to be included in the j staff's safety evaluation report:  ;

The spent fuel pool cooling and cleanup systeni includes all components and piping of the system from inlet to and exit from the storage pool and j

( pits, the seismic Category I water source and piping used for fuel pool makeup, the cleanup system filter-demineralizers and the regenerative l

9.1.3-9 Rev. 1 - July 1981 1' i

l proc es to the point of discharge to the radwaste system. The scope of review M the spent fuel pool cooling and cleanup system included layout dran ny , process flow diagrams, piping and instrumentation diagrams, ana t

y descriptive information for the system and the supporting systems that ws i are etsential to safe operation. The cooling portion of the system and  !

the (mcrgency primary makeup system are designed to seismic Category 1, Qualit, Group C requirements since they are necessary to remove decay heat from the spent fuel and to prevent fuel damage that could lead to unacceptable releases of radioactivity. The cooling portion of the system need not be designed to seismic Category I requirements if the makeup system and the building ventilation and filtration system are seismic Category I, and if the ventilation and filtration system meet the guidelines of k gH =tnry Guido 1.52.

The stah cencludes that the design of the spent fuel pool cooling and cleanup system aM its- makeup system meets the requirements of General Design Criteria 2, 4, S., 44. 45, 46, 61 and 63. This conclusion is based on the following:

1. The applicant has met the requirements of General Design Criterion 2 with  !

respect to safety-relatec' portions of the system being protected against natural phenomena. Acceptance is based on meeting the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.13, position C.1 which recommends a seismic Category I design fcr necessary portions of the spent fuel storage facility, position C.2 regarding protection against winds and wind generated missiles, posi-tio; C.6 as it relates to the system being capable of withstanding earth-quakes without loss of coolant that would uncover the fuel, and position C.8 ahich recommends a seismic Category 1 makeup system with appropriate redundancy or a backup from a Category I water source. Acceptance is also baseri on meeting the seismic design requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.29, position C.1 for safety-related portions of the system necessary for adenuate cooling to prevent excessive radioactivity releases (position C.I.p

'f Pegulatory Guide 1.29) and position C.2 as it relates to the failure of m safety-related portions of the system. If the fuel pool building ventilation and filtration systems are designed to seismic Category I requirements and in accordance with the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.52 the n d ing portion of the system need not be seismic Category 1.  !

2 The 1esign meets the requirements of General Design Criterion 4 with regards to protection against the effects of externally generated missiles since )

it is in accordance with position C.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.13 since no 4 loss of watertight integrity or fuel damage occur in the event of tornado miss41re ,

1 The h ign meets the requirements of General Design Criterion 5 regarding thc sharing of safety-related structures, systems, and components since no single failure will prevent the system from performing its safety-related function which is cooling the spent fuel.

4 The design meets the requirements of General Design Criterion 44 regarding decay heat removal redundancy and power supplies, since the system has the capability to remove decay heat from the spent fuel under both normal operating and accident conditions. The system has redundancy so that decay heat can be removed assuring a single active failure coincident with a loss of all offsite pov.er, and is designed with isolation capability of I syster components and piping, if required, such that th? ability of the l system te remose decay heat will not be compromised i 9.1.3-10 Rev.1 - July 1981 l

(' the use of. loss of flow and temperature alarms, and to detect conditions that would result in excessive radiation through the use of coolant low

' level alarms and radiation monitoring alarms. And the system has the

~

capability to initiate appropriate safety actions since it has an automatic makeup system and the cooling system and ventilation and filtration system can be-operated from the control room in the event of high radiation or low level alarms.

V. IMPLEMENTATION The following is intended to provide guidance to applicants and licensees

~

regarding the NRC staff's plans for using this SRP section.

Except'in those cases in which the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission's regulations, the method described herein will be used by the staff in its evaluation of conformance with Commission regulations.

Implementation schedules for conformance to parts of the method discussed herein are contained in the referenced Regulatory Guides.

~

'l '

" and '1983','130' loss-of-DHR events were report'ed to have occurred during ,

approximately 50.0 reactor. years.of operation. The DHR systems are-not-

'the DHR systems , designed ahd constructed'to NRC's-Branch Technical Position RSB 5-1 have'truly safety grade systems; Total. loss of the_DHR systems j under certain conditions could lead to core uncovery, and resultant fuel <

damage. .The results of scoping analyses of total loss-of-DHR scenarios l presented in this study indicate that for certain postulated events, unless-timely corrective actions are'taken, core uncovery could result on the order of one to three hours. To date, no serious damage has resulted from the

. loss-of-DHR system events that have occurred at U.S. PWRs. However,.many of the events which have occurr'ed thus far may serve as important precursors to more serious events.

Analysis of operating data indicates that the underlying or root causes of most of the loss-of-DHR system events are-human factors deficiencies involving procedural inadequacies and personnel error. Most of the errors were committed during maintenance, testing and repair operations.

The leading category of loss-of-DHR events (37 of 130) was the iriadvertent' automatic closure of-the suction / isolation valves, most of which resulted from

(. human errors, This repor.t presents summaries.of loss-of-DHR events which occurred during the years 1982 and 1983, and the'most significant loss-of-DHR events in 1984. Since the 1984 data base was not complete at the time of this analysis, the available 1984 data was used to confirm the observed trends in frequency and severity of loss-of-DHR events for prior years. Reference is made to an industry report, Nuclear Safety Analysis Center report NSAC-52, for summaries of loss-of-DHR events which occurred during the years 1976 through 1981. Reference is also made to the findings of,a recent probabilistic risk assessment that was done by the Nuclear Safety Analysis Center to quantify the risks associated with DHR (NSAC-84).

The analysis of recent operating data indicates that the situation involving loss-of-DHR systems is not improving. In terms of the frequency or duration of loss, no clear trend towards improvement is evident. However, it may be too early to see the results of the implementation of the recommendations contained in NSAC-52 or industry actions.

This report makes several recommendations based upon the potential safety si<Jnificance of loss-of-OHR events. Implementation of those recommendations should significantly improve DHR system reliability and availability. The recommendations-include; ' improving human factors by upgrading coordination, planning, and. administrative control of surveillance, maintenance, and testing operations which are performed during shutdown; providing operator aids to. assist in determining time available for DHR recovery an1 to assist b operators in trendino parameters during loss-of-DHR events: upgrading the

The safety . function of the.DF{R.hstem.'is' tii./tiansferlfis$1on. product decay?

heat'from the' reactor core at a rate which will assure that the fuel P sign limits andfthe reactor coolant pressure boundary design limits are not exceeded. An extended loss of the DHR function could lead to core uncovery, and associated fuel damage. (As noted in section 2.1, in addition to the DHR system there are systems which can be used to remove decay heat--e.g.

steam generators and the auxiliary feedwater system.)

We note that NRC's' General Design Criterion (GDC) 34 requires the DHR safety function to be accomplished assuming a single failure. However, we also note that there have been numerous single failures which have caused losses of this system. During the years 1976 through 1983, the licensees have reported about'130 loss-of-DHR events. Most of those events were of a short duration; however, several have extended beyond an hour with some lasting more than two hours.

To date, no serious damage has resulted from the total loss-of-DHR systems at U.S. PWRs, and there has not been any danger to the public. Nonetheless, the large number of loss-of-DHR events which have occurred thus far

( (occurrence frequency of 0.25/ reactor year), may serve as important precursors which warrant corrective actions before a far more serious event occurs.

Numerous studies have been performed and numerous reports have been written on DHR systems. The most significant enes are:

o In 1975, WASH 1800 (Ref. 1) noted that the loss of the DHR function In this report, a total loss of a DHR system is defined as failure of both DHR (RHR, or SDC) trains to perform their function when required.

Such losses include momentary as well as long duration events.

Momentary events represent challenges to plant safety from'which timely recovery has-taken place. We view the many short and long duration loss-of-DHR events which have occurred thus far without any serious consequences as precursors. Analysis and evaluation of those events are necessary because timely recovery from similarly initiated events cannot always be assured. Inoperability of both DHR (RHR, or SDC)

. trains during times that they are not required to perform their function are not included as total losses. Similarly, DHR (RHR or SDC) systems which are administrative 1y declared inoperable, but could still perform their function (e.g., inoperability due to missed surveillance or faulty snubbers), are not included as total losses, i I

ORNL found 38 loss-of-DHR system events which met their criteria for safety significance (which is equival.ent to our definition of a total loss of a DHR system). ,,

~

o In 1983, the Nuclear ~ Safety' Analysis Center (NSAC) published a.

report (NSAC-52,.Ref. 3) which reviewed DHR losses at U.S. PWRs during the years 1976 through 1981. It made numerous recommendations which, if implemented, could have improved DHR system reliability and overall safety.

Interest in this case study was first initiated because of the large number of loss-of-DHR events which occurred at the Davis-Besse plant (see Appendix C). Subsequen't analysis of the data, and additional licensee event reports (LERs) detailing DHR losses at other PWRs showed that the problems

- at the Davis-Besse plant were not.uniq'ue to Dav.is-Besse or.other Babcock and

.)  ;

Wilcox (B&W) plants. As a result,-the scope of the study also includes events which occurred at PWRs having reactors designed by Combustion Engineering (CE) and Westinghouse (W).

This report' highlights'some facets of DHR losses and DHR operations which are not addressed in previous reports, and it presents six recommendations which, if implemented, have the potential for significantly improving reactor safety.

The DHR system is designed to' remove fission product decay heat from the reactor ~ core. The safety function of.the DHR system is to remove heat from.

from hot shutdown conditions to cold shutdown'or refueling conditions (see T.able 1), and tof'm.aintain"the. plant in'soch shutd'own" conditions'for extended.

perio'ds 'of ' time. For the transition phase associated with cooling the plant from operating pressures and temperatures after a reactor trip, for example, to hot shutdown, the steam generators and the auxiliary feedwater system are used to remove heat from the primary system. Upon reaching the reduced pressures and temperatures associated with the hot shutdown condition, the DHR system is activated.

During accident conditions, most DHR systems can be aligned to perform emergency core cooling functions [ low pressure. coolant injection. (LPCI),

recirculation,' and in some designs containment spray]. In W and B&W plants, the DHR system can also act as a booster system to provide the net positive suction head (NPSH) required by the safety injection (SI) or high pressure injection (HPI) pumps for operation in the recirculation mode (" piggyback" operation). In B&W plants, the DHR system also provides auxiliary spray to the pressurizer to assist in depressurization after the reactor coolant pumps are secured.

The DHR system is typically composed of two redundant 100% capacity trains.

I It is usually located outside containment. A schematic diagram of a repre-sentative DHR system appears in Figure 1. Most DHR systems have a single suction or "drpp" line which.is tapped off one of the reactor coolant system (RCS) hot legs. Because of the single suction or " drop" line design, most DHR systems are susceptible to loss.of the ability to perform the decay heat removal function due to a single failure of a suction line valve. It should i be noted that for most DHR systems, much of the systems piping and compo-nents are fully safety grade because they are used for the LPCI function.

In fact for most DHR systems, single failure vulnerability exists in the single suction or " drop" line which is not used with the'LPCI function.

From the DHR pump discharge, the primary coolant flows through a heat ex-changer where heat is transferred to the component cooling water system. ,

Af ter the' primary coolant leaves the DHR heat exchangers, it returns to the {

reactor vessel. There are not many significant differences among DHR (

systems at U.S.'PWRs. One significant difference is the location at which I the DHR flow returns to the RCS. In B&W plants, the DHR flow returns to the l reactor vessel through piping which is shared with the core flood tanks' l dischrrge. In other PWR designs the DHR flow returns to the reactor vessel j throt.gh the cold legs. Other differences are: number of DHR system trains  ;

(2 vs. 3 trains), number of " drop" lines (newer plants having 2 vs. 1), W '

plants having letdown coming off the DHR system, and CE system 80 plants having single failure proof suction / isolation valve closure logic.

]

Most DHR systems operate at temperatures of 350*F or less, and at pressures )

less than 600 psig. Because the DHR system has a low pressure design and is located outside containment, significant efforts (administrative controls, system interlocks, etc.) are made to ensure isolation of the system when the d

.DHR' system' requirements contained in tha'gener i desi.gn criteria (GDC) have. j

. changed over the years. The 1967 GDC:did not address single f.ailure aspects

.  ? :of.the DHR system. The 1971 GDC,~criteriori. number:34, requires the.DHR system to meet the single failure criterion. Newer' plants which are.

designed to the 1971 GDC do not f ully meet GDC 34's single failure criterion. "

Although some of the newer plants do have double drop lines and redundant valves, the control circuitry in most of those plants is such that a single failure can cause a lots of the DHR system. . Recognizing this, NRC has declared " Shutdown Decay Heat Removal Require.ments" an Unresolved Safety Issue (A-45). To resolve A-45,.NRR is evaluating the adequacy of current licensing' design req'ireme'nts u in order to ensure that plants do not pose an unacceptable risk due to failure to. remove shutdown decay heat. The specific objectives of tne task incluoe:

o Assess the safety adequacy of DHR systems in existing power plants for achieving both hot shutdown and cold shutdown conditions.

o Evaluate the feasibility of alternative measures for improving DHR system reliability, including diverse alternatives dedicated to the DHR function.

o Assess the value and impact (or cost-benefit) of the most promising ,

alternative measures.

o Develop a plan for implementing any proposed new licensing requirements for DHR systems.

Many plants are designed such that single failures in the DHR suction /

isolation valve interlocks, and single instrument bus failures or single valve failures can result in the loss of the decay heat removal function of the DHR systems. (The LPCI f unction of the DHR system is not vulnerable to sutb single failure.) The DHR suction / isolation valve interlocks are des ( i to prevent an interfacing LOCA (Event V) at the expense of interi yting DHR system operation. The functions of the interlocks are to:

o Prevent opening of the suct' ion / isolation valves when the reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure exceeds the DHR system pressure.

o Assure that the suction / isolation valves are closed for plant startup and repressurization.

Irf essence, the suction / isolation valve logic is single failure proof with regbrd to closing the valves (to prevent an interfacing LOCA), but it ne-cessitates an interruption of the DHR system function. Justification for thi* prioritization (interf acing LOCA first, and decay heat removal second) is based upon the design decision that there is less recovery time, and greater risk, associated with the interfacing LOCA than with a loss of DHR.

some recent' designs have two " drop lines" from the RCS, and two' suction j lines,'-each having motor-operated isolation valves in series (Fig. 2).

. ,d. , However, from,theastandpoint.. of. the. interfacing LOCA, the double drcp line,-

do'uble su-tion line configuration' presents ~an additional . failure path and, theref ore, ~results i,rf a . higher. ris'k than the single suction line' configuration.

Most.of .the plants *f which. have'-two drop lines and two', suction' lines have OHR suction / isolation valve closure logic which would close valves in both lines as a result of a single failure (e.g.. control logic failure that' closes the ,

valves, or a single erroneous' closure signal). Consequently, a single '

active failure could cause the loss of the decay heat removal function of the DHR system for such plants. For example, as noted in Reference 5, the Catawba plants, which have two drop lines, can lose both trains of DHR due to a single instrument bus failure. It should be noted that the control logic for,most double drop line designs is . fail-safe--where fail-safe implies preventing an interfacing LOCA, not sustaining DHR flow. As a result, the double drop lire designs with the aforementioned closure logic do not represent any improvement against loss-of-DHR events associated with automatic closure of the suction / isolation valves. They do present a significant improvement against " stuck shut valve" problems.

As noted in Reference 6, Westinghouse has evaluated a recent licensee proposal to remove the autoclosure interlocks on the Kewaunee plant's DHR suction vahes, The analysis concluded that for Kewaunee, such a modification would be a safety improvement. FRR has approved that modification.

In an attempt to provide redundant DHR flow. paths, while minimizing the possibility of an interfacing LOCA outside containment, the Davis-Besse plant has,a configuration whi.ch lies between the single and double drop line configurations. The Davis-Besse plant has one drop line with a smaller diameter bypass line as shown in figure 3. The valves in the bypass line are manually operated (normally closed). This bypass configuration provides an additional flow path to enable DHR cooling in the event there is a problem with the suction / isolation valves; yet, it does not provide the

.  : 2.2. Tonse' qui.nces of th' e' Loss' of. the Decay. Heat Removal Fun'ction

. The time margin available for restoring 'the DHR system, or establii,hing alternate methods of1 heat removal (prior to bulk boiling, core. uncovery, fuel' damage,.etc.) depends'upon1the RCS temperature, the decay heat rate.

(which is' dependent upori time interval elapsed from rea'ctor trip to' DHR' '

system failure and core power operating history), and the amount of 'RCS inventory. During some shutdown operations, the RCS may be. partially drained (e.g., to perform steam generator inspections or rep. airs).

Decreased primary system inventory can significantly reduce the time )

available to recover the DHR function prior to bulk boiling and core uncovery.

It should also be noted that reduced primary' system inventory can result in-rapid heatup rates and decreased time margins available prior to primary system boilof f even though the DHR loss may happen many days af ter shutdown.

For example, Reference 7 indicated Sequoyah 2 had a 92*F heatup of the primary system water in 77 minutes with reduced RCS inventory, even though the reactor was shutdown 18 days before the DHR loss occurred.

The results of an AE00 scoping calculation showed that 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after a reactor trip, in the absence of successful operator action, a partially drained RCS at a B&W plant could boil off enough coolant to uncover the top of the core approximately one hour after losing the DHR system. The calculation was based upon the assumptions that the RCS was drained down to the top of the. hot-leg nozzle, the coolant in the reactor vessel was at a.

bulk temperature of.140 F, and the RCS was "open" to 'the .atmosphpe.

This analysis compares favorably with operating experience and licensees' analyses. For er. ample, References 8, 9 and 10 reported that on August 29, j 1984, 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br /> after a reactor trip at ANO-2 (a CE plant), the DHR system failed while*the plant was in a partially drained condition. The reactor vessel water heated up from 140*F to 205*F in about 30 to 40 minutes.* In Reference 11, D.C. Cook (a W plant) reported the results of a corresponding }

analysis indicated that the onset of core uncovery would take place about I hour after the loss of the DHR system. Recently, a foreign PWR experienced a loss-of-DHR during draindown. Subsequently, the foreign country's regulatory body performed a calculation and concluded that,under slightly different conditions, in the absence of successful operator action, core uncovery could begin in about 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 20 minutes, with fuel failure beginning about two and one-half hours after the loss of the DHR system.

  • The entire event lasted 50 minutes. However, during the first 20 minutes, DHR was provit by make-up water which was gravity fed from the RWST, and by oscill.' ery DHR system flow (flow was provided by the DHR pump which was cavitating).

Another AEOD scoping calculationfwas performed.for.a loss-of-DHR, event at a

.. B&W plant shortly ~after activating the DHR sy' stem. It was' based.upon,a. c licensee' calculation (Ref. 12) which assumed a loss'of the DHR system about 3

three hours after reactor trip with a full RCS (no draindown). The'results indicated that in the absence of successful operator action, the RCS would

. heat-up to saturation conditions,'and pressurize to the low temperature overpressurization (LTOP) setpoint within one-half hour.* Upon reaching the LTOP setpoint, the RCS coolant would boil off at the LTOP setpoint pressure and escape through the PORV. The results of our calculations indicate that

' core.uncovery would begin.within about, two and one-half! hours af ter the loss-of-DHR. occurred.

The time available for restoring the decay heat removal function prior to core uncovery can be as short as about an hour and can extend up to many hours or days.- The time available depends upon the plant's operating history and status at the time of the DHR system loss. Figure 4 shows a typical time margin plot (time available for recovery of the DHR f. unction vs. time after rod insertion that the DHR function was lost).

The results of AE0D's scoping calculations indicate that if losses of the

('

DHR system occur during early stages of shutdown (e.g., 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after reactor trip) with the RCS partially drained, or shortly after activating the DHR system before the. primary system is drained, corrective actions must; be taken'promptly to either restore the DHR system or to imp'lement alternate met, hods for removing reactor decay heat. These calculations highlight the fact that a loss of the DHR system can lead to a safety significant event l unless timely recovery actions are taken.

Historically, the NRC and the U.S. nuclear community have considered hot standby to be a safe end state. As a result, until recently no probabilistic risk assessments of U.S. reactors have quantified the risks associated with operations in shutdown modes 4, 5, and 6.

Because of recent interest in DHR, NSAC is funding probabilistic assessments of the risks associated with modes 4, 5 and 5 at two plants (one'PWR and one BWR).

L

  • Similarly, as noted in Reference 13, closure of the suction isolation

. valves at W plants have led to rapid LTOPs. They occurred because the l plants were operating solid, and closure of the suction / isolation L

valves isolated letdown without stopping make-up. In one case, the situation was further aggravated by the fact that the RCPs were operating, and the LTOP relief valves were inoperable.

Because human f actors are ' major contHbutors to' DHR : loss'ev'ents- (as' dish

. the"large uncertainty associated with such assessments, the' undertaking of a

,probabilistic risk assessment;on'DHR systems is outside.the scqpe of this

' case study,

, J , . - .

Shortly af ter a draf t of this case study was issued 'for. p'eer review comment in July 1985, NSAC published their Probabilistic Risk Assessment of the Zion Nuclear Plants, NSAC-84 (Ref. 14). NSAC-84's evaluation of risk from DHR operation supports AEOD's position; e.g., in Reference 15, which forwarded EPRI's peer review comments on a draft of this case study, EPRI stated that one of the important lessons learned from the Zion DHR PRA project was that,

" Quantifying risk during shutdown is extremely difficult,and that risk' numbers in this regime are more un'ertain c than ' traditional' PRA results.. "

Furthermore, EPRI noted that:

"An equally important lesson was that shutdown risk is highly plant specific, primarily because different plants use different procedures i and system lineups during shutdown...,"

and,

.(

. "We believe.that especially for DHR, accurate bottom.line-numbers based on generic PRA analysis techniques are neither achievable nor even desirable."

2.3 Actions to Recover the Decay Heat Removal Function As noted in section 2.2, the time aveilable for recovery from a loss of the DHR system prior to uncovering the core can be as short as about an hour.

Except for LOCA initiated events (during which break isolation would have top priority), restoration of the DHR system function appears to be the preferred recov'ery method. Iri addition to restoring the DHR ~ system, many alternate methods are available for removing decay heat when the DHR system is lost. Table 2 presents some backup methods which could be and have been used to remove decay heat upon loss of the DHR system. It should be noted that not all of the methods listed in Table 2 are available at all plants.

It is also important to note that use of miscellaneous makeup water sources (e.g., plant fire protection system) requires that precautions be taken to prevent boron dilution. Other than restoring the failed DHR system, there is. no single backup method which is applicable for all loss-of-DHR events.

L3.1 Lesses of' Decay Heat Remov51 Systems ,

There have been many events-in which both trains of the DHR system were

. - .' unable.to perform.their required decaysheat removal functions. From 1976' through'1983, there have been ' reports of at least 130 events'in' which ^

operating DHR ' systems .f ailed.* .This represents..a .'f requency.of about:. 0.25 V per* reactor year, based.ontabout 5'JO years of commercial'US.' PWR operation:

.There were about 90 events' reported.for ,the period 1976 a 1981, and there' were about.40 more events-reported which occurred during 1982 and 1983.

Ou'r analysis and evaluation of DHR system failures were based upon two (groups of data: operating experience from 1976 through 1981 was obtained from-LERs and Nuclear Safety Analysis Center report,NSAC-52.(Ref. 3); and operating experience for the years 1982 and 1983 was,obtained fromlLERs and NRC reports. The. reader .is directed to Reference'3. for" summaries of DHR-system losses that occurred from 1976 to 1981. Appendix A of this report..

presents summaries of the DHR system losses which occurred during 1982 and 1983. Because the 1984. data base was not yet complete, the 1984 operating.

experience was not included in our statistical presentation of the catego-ries and causes of-DHR system failures. However, the 1984 events were evaluated for significance in comparison to previous events.. The most significant DHR system. failures of 1984 are summarized in. Appendix B.

We evaluated.the loss-of-DHR operating data to determine if there were any significant trends, For the 130 reported events which occurred between 1976 and 1983, Table 3 shows that 11 plants accounted for 95 events (approxi-

-h mately 8.6 events per plant). Essentially one-fifth (21%) of the 56 opera-ting PWRs covered by this study accounted for three quarters (73%).of.the loss-of-DHR events. . .

Table 3 shows that the Davis-Besse plant has reported the most losses of DHR. However, Table 3 also shows that there has been a marked improvement at that plant since 1981. During 1980, the Davis-Besse plant experienced nine loss-of-DHR events, six of which involved' inadvertent closure of the suction / isolation valves. The repeated DHR' losses at Davis-Besse during the spring 1980 outage were . reported to Congress in an Abnormal Occurrence Report (Ref. 16). In Reference 16, the NRC stated that the licensee had a

" serious deficiency.in management or procedural controls in many areas."

Subsequently, Davis-Besse management took action to impro've administrative' controls, operating and emergency procedures, and personnel training associated with plant shutdowns. In addition, the plant's technical specifications were modified to allow removal of power from the DHR suction /

isolation valves during plant shutdown (in order to preclude their inadvertent' closure). It appears that since these improvements have been made, there have been no reported losses of the DHR system at the L

  • We have found 130 loss-of-DHR system events which were reported by l licensees; however, there have been many other loss-of-DHR events which have not been reported to NRC. I t

Bulle' tin 80-12. Referince 18 summ'arizes' actio's n t'aken by utilities in response to the IE bulletin. Our review of the plant-responses does not indicate that there is a statistically significant correlation between compliance with the IE bulletin, and DHR system losses. (For example, some plants which have complied with the bulletin continue-to have DHR loss events; whereas some plants.that have not yet completed actions associated with the bulletin have not. experience'd.any DHR. system losses.).

From Table 3, we also note that Salem 2 has experienced an' unusually high number of DHR losses in a single year. It.had eight losses in 1983 (six

~

during one outage and two duririg another outage). Four of those events involved inadvertent closure of the suction / isolation valves, three events involved DHR pump trip due to problems with the " safeguards equipment control" (SEC). system, and one event resulted from flooding of the service water bay (see Appendix A for details of those events). Subsequently, in 1964, Salem 2 had another loss-of-DHR event which involved inadvertent closure of a suction / isolation valve resulting from a procedural error i

. (, during testing of.the " pressurizer overpressure protection" (POP) system.* l Table 3 indicates that until 1981, the Crystal River plant had nine loss-of .

DHR events. There were between one and three' losses every year for four

. years. Since 1981, there have not been any. The DHR losses at this plant seem to have stopped at about the same time that the plant implemented actions to improve their planning, coordination and management of outage and maintenance activities.

One measure of significance of loss-of-DHR events is the time interval that the DHR function was lost. Table 4 presents a summary of the duration of the loss-of-DHR events which occurred during 1982 and 1983. It also summarizes the duration of ten significant DHR losses which occurred during 1984.

In 1982, there were 18 events, 14 of which lasted from about two minutes to i about an hour. The duration of the other four events is unknown.

Deficiencies associated with plant management, administrative controls.

maintenance and test activities at the Salem station were addressed by  !

the NRC subsequent to the 1983 Salem anticipated transient without scram events. We believe that the licensee has taken corrective action in these areas, and a general reduction in the f requency of loss-of-DHR

'h events is anticipated as a result.

, that 'although'there were nu those events we're deemed to be significant. ..(Appendix B has descriptions.of

. those' ter) events. )' Those. ten-events, ranged'in/ duration from seven minutes' to two hours:. .Because'of recent changes in reporting requirements'(new LER rule 10 CFR SD 73 effective January 1,1984), it is not possible to make a direct comparison of industry perf ormance by examining the duration and frequency of recent years' loss-of-DHR events. The new reporting require-

. ments are more stringent than those of previous years. Virtually all loss-of-DHR events and their durations are now required to be reported.

Variations in plant technical specifications and licensee interpretation of

. previous reporting requirements have resulted .in many loss-of-DHR events which were not reported, as well as' reports which were incomplete and did not include inforrriation about the durations of_ the' events, for example, NSAC-64 (Ref. 14), illustrates the discrepancy between the number of DHR losses that occurred at the. Zion nuclear station and that which was reported to the NRC. By reviewing control room logs and maintenance records, the authors'of NSAC-84'found that there were 21 loss-of-DHR events at Zion 1 and 2 which the licensee deemed to be unreportable (16 events in which there was autoclosure of the suction / isolation valves while the DHR system was operating, and'five DHR losses which were attributed to inadequate reactor vessel level measurement.during draindown operations)'. In contrast, the licensee only

( reported one loss-of-DHR event through 1983.

In an effort to reduce the. frequency of inadvertent suction / isolation valve closures, Zion plant procedures (as reported in Reference 14) call for deenergi2ing the valves in the open position before conducting setpoint

' calibration and prior to conducting work on the inverters. This has been effective in re.ducing the Zion station's valve closure frequency from one per outage.to zero.

Examination of the data presented in Tables 3 and 4, and in Appendices A and B. indicates that some plants have been having a disproportionate number of long duration DHR losses in recent years; i.e. , . North Anna 1 and 2 have had ,

five long duration loss-of-DHR events in 1982, four long duration loss-of-DHR events in 1983, and in 1984 North Anna 2 had a two-hour loss.

McGuire 2 had three long duration DHR loss events during a three-week period between December 1983 and January 1984 (43 minutes, 62 minutes and 49 minutes). McGuire 1 had three loss-of-DHR events in 1982 and 1983, the longest of which lasted one hour.

The operating experience shows that North Anna and McGuire have experienced i mul-tiple and long duration loss-of-DHR events without apparent improvement.

The Calvert Cliffs plants have experienced multiple loss-of-DHR events

The fact that the number of DHR lo.sses as,well,as the duration of. losses in 1984, continue, to:be.high (>15 events:);tends 'to' fndicate that plant performance is not improving during ashutdow'ris. .However, it 'is 'iinportant to note that' '

. .dur.ing the years- 1982,.1983.and 1984,.the longe.st duration event was two hoursi whereas' there.were five events' during .the yeatM976 4: 1981 which

~were of longer duration. Although many of the 130 loss-of-DHR events' exceeded an hour, plant personnel have always been able to restore the DHR function prior to reaching an unsafe condition (core uncovery). Since none of the long' duration events' occurred immediately after shutdown, there were no ,

serious consequences. However, under slightly different circumstances, some of the loss-of-DHR events could have led to serious consequences.- Figure 4 shows how recovery time varies as a function of the. time after. scram that the loss-of-DHR'eventro ccurs.. i % - -- ' -

While none of the recorded DHR failures a'ffectedi the' health'and safft'y of the public, some of the events caused significant' plan't disruptions, extended downtime, and expensive cleanup and recovery. The Oc6 nee 2 DHR system loss, which occurred on September 18, 1981 (Refs. 19 and 20) is a good example of such an event.*

Our analysis of operating data included categorization of 130 DHR system failures that occurred at PWRs during the years 1976 - 1983. Table 5 presents the results and shows that events involving the" suction / isolation valves and the DHR pumps accounted for about two-thirds of the DHR system i failures.

More than one quarter of all reported DHR system losses which occurred between 1976 and 19E3 involved automatic closure of DHR suction / isolation valves (37 events)** The underlying or root causes of most of the automatic valve closure events were human factors (see section 4.1 for further

-discussion). Only two of the. automatic isolation valve closure events were On September 18, 1981, while at 94% power, Oconee 2 developed a steam generator tube leak (25-30 gpm). A rapid plant cooldown and depres-surization was begun. The plant cooldown and depressurization were delayed when it was found that one of the DHR suction valves was stuck closed, thereby making the DHR system unavailable. As a result, plant cooldown was delayed for more than 17 hours1.967593e-4 days <br />0.00472 hours <br />2.810847e-5 weeks <br />6.4685e-6 months <br />. The primary to secondary leak resulted in an accumulation of about 2h million gallons of con-taminated water in the turbine building. It took about 60 days to reprocess the contaminated water, and to clean up the secondary system l and the turbine building. i

OHR SYSTEM LOSSES ,.

Table 5 presents a listing of the categories'of DHR system' failures. In addition to categorizing the events, our analysis examined the licensee submittals to. determine the underlying or root causes of the events.

Table 6 presents the results of our assessment.

It can readily be seen from Table 6 that the dominant underlying or root causes of DHR system failures are human factors (procedural inadequacies, operator or technician errors, etc.). Human factors account for almost two-tnird; of trie events. Equipment failures were the second major underly-ing or root cause and accounted for aboit one-quarter of the events.

4.2 Human factors The operating data revealed that human factors are the dominant underlying or root causes of almost two-thirds of the DHR system losses.

The major human factors problems that were common to many DHR system losses include: 1 PROCEDURES A. During normal outage activities (maintenance / repair / test /

surveillance), procedures often; f o omit caution statements regarding restoring equipment on completion of tasks, o fail to consider interactions with other tasks or equipment, e are poorly written and cmit steps or contain ambiguous instructions, o fail to identify equipment the same'way it is labeled or referred to by the operator.

I B. During f ailure identification and recnsery activities, procedures l frequently:

o are not available or are no'. applicable for a loss-of-DHR )

event, j o are incomplete or lack specificity, o refer to or depend upor, indicators, instruments, alarms or annunciators that have been optimized for power operation but are inadequate for shutdown operations and/or are improperly ,

j op'eration, or, operator error. ,

Some of. the most sig'nificant even s involving human'f'act' ors occurred whil'e

.the primary coolant-system was partially drained and'the operators were misled on the status of coolant inventory by inaccurate liquid level instru- j

-mentation. In many cases, the level instrumentation devices were incor-rectly calibrated, or were makeshift apparatus which were prone to failure and measurement errors (e.g., tygon tube sight gages). . In most events.of.

this type, the operators did not have advance warning of an inventory problem. A. frequently observed scenario was one in which'the RCS was drained. down to the' point where there was inadequate net positive. suction.

head (NPSH) or air entrapment in the DHR' pump. Ad a result,'the DHR pump' cavitated, co'ld not deliver the design coolant flow, or even became air-bound. The first symptoms were usually increases in pump noise and changes in pump motor current which were caused by inadequate suction- head and cavitation. In many events, the operators diagnosed the problem as a pumo problem when the cause was actually an inventory problem. As a result, in many cases, the operators activated the redundant pumps only to find that they also malfunctioned. It should be noted that continued operation of a ,

'DHR pump with inadequate NPSH or a closed suction valve could result in DHR l pump failure, i Appendices A and'B contain' descriptions of 18 events which occu.rred.in 1982,.

'1983, and 1984 which involved insufficient ~ inventory and subsequent pump problems. Between 1976 and 1984 there have been ten events where the operators required about an hour or more to restore operability of the air s or vapor bound pumps. Most of the longer duration events occurred before 1982. In 1984- there were at' least six low inventory events, two of which lasted more than an hour.

With regard to the lack of information available to operators during DHR operations, we note that many plants do not have (or have improperly placed) annunciators to warn of low DHR pump NPSH or low DHR flow. For example, in Reference 21, Diablo Canyon reported a DHR pump' failure after operating for about an hour with a closed suction valve.

Regarding inadequate procedures and training for mitigation or recovery from a DHR system loss, we note that in a recent LER (Ref. 22) Zion 1 reported a 45-minute loss of the DHR system due to draining of the primary system to a

! level below the DHR pump's suction line. The LER implied that there was no procedure available for responding to this event. The licensee stated that  !

"a procedure for loss of RHR will be prepared," and "a procedure for a loss )

of RHR will be written to provide guidance in the proper actions to be taken )

in the event of an indicated loss of RHR." Reference 14 notes that there l were at least five previous loss-of-DHR events at Zion caused by inadequate )

RCS inventory. However, none of those five previous events prompted the licensee to prepare procedures for recovering from such an event.

. reach bulk boiling or core uncovery as a function of ti.me af ter reactor trip,Jsuch as.that sh6wn in Figure 4).

F A' poignant example',of many ofT the aforementioned human factors concerns'

. (e.g , procedures' a'id man-machine interf ace)'is documented in a recent NRC inspection' report (Ref. 23), from which excerpts are reprinted below.

Licensee Monitoring of Core Cooli.ng Parameters During Mdde 6 j Operation

'The NRC resident inspector expressed concern over the adequacy of ,

surveillance practices provided by the licensee for monitoring I proper core cooling during extended periods in,which-the Unit 2 reactor vessel was partially drained with the closure head detensioned;

. .the reactor vessel was drained to the middle of the hot leg nozzle, which provides approximately six feet of water above the top of the' core.

... Depending on the prior core power history and the length of time between reactor shutdown and head detensioning, core decay f

'\. heat could be sufficient to boil the available water cover Ethin a very short period of fime (several hours) if proper 6 core cooling were not maintaineJ. This vulnerable state 3f plant condition forms the basis for NRC concern.

Considering the plant conditions noted above, the following points were noted with respect to licensee monitoring of important core

cooling parameters:

-(1) There is no reactor vessel water level indication or alarm in the control room. The only current requirement for monitoring vessel water level is to monitor a temporary standpipe installed in containment on a once per-thif t basis.

This could involve up to 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> between water level observations.

(2) There is no core cooling flow alarm in the control room.

Core cooling flow indication is available in the control room; however, it is only required to be monitored once a shift.

(3) There is no direct reactor vessel water temperature indication or alarm in the control room. Available reactor coolant temperature instruments are located in stagnant l portions of the coolant loop and not in the shutdown l

/ cooling flow path. f 1

(Emphasis Aoded) 4.2 Equipment Failures Our analysis and eva)uation of the operating data revealed that failure of equipment, such asipumps,ivalves, relays,.etc. , were. the' underlying or root..

causes'of more than one quarter of the reported DHR system failures.(36 of ,

l 130).

The data showed that almost all of these 36 events involved random single failures which occurred while the plants were in modes 5 or 6. The redundant DHR trains were frequently unavailable due to testing,' maintenance or repairs as allowed by plant technical specifications. We believe that there were very few DHR loss events during mode 4 because only a small portion of. shutdown time is spent in' mode 4, and because many of the test, maintenance and repair activities associated with plant shutdown are not normally initiated until the plants are in modes 5 or 6.

.We note that. in a generic letter (Ref. 24), NRR required all operating PWRs .

to modify their plant technical specifications to " provide for redundancy in decay heat removal capability,in all modes of operation." To date, all but two plants have modified their technical specifications to meet the requirements of the generic letter. (Those two plants are Palisades, and TMI-1.) Although, the technical specifications required by the generic

~

letter decreased the likelihood of DHR loss due to single failures, they did not fully assure DHR redundancy during all DHR modes. Implementing the technical specifications that were included with the generic letter do not prevent a licensee from disabling a train of DHR.during times of'high DHR heat load.

For example:

o The generic letter permits the plants to have only one train of DHR operable during periods of higher risk, i.e., high decay heat load during mode 4 and the early stages of mode 5.

10 Licensees were not required to formulate detailed emergency

. procedures for loss-of-DHR and train their staff in their use.

o Standard plant technical specifications allow disablement of all DHR and RCS pumps for up to one hour if the RCS fluid exiting the core is at least 10 F subcooled. However under those conditions, it is

We' note that NSAC's study'of DHR operating experience.(R'ef 3) s'uggests that

. cold shutdown) 'We' endorse NSAC's co'ncern for having' such" redundant l)HR.

cepability-available during times of high. decay heat. ,

i 4.3 Technical Specification Deficiencies Our review.of loss-of-DHTt events identified the potential for' increased risk due to inadequate technical specifications, specifically concerning the necessary. conditions required for the determination of " cold shutdown," and v .the absence of'a requirement for. vessel level monitoring equipment.

4.3.1 . Mode . Definition /Early Disabling of Equipment -

An early loss of the DHR system could effectively place the plant in a degraded mode while the plant has'a higher decay heat ger.eration rate, resulting in~ a shorter time available for a safe recovery. For example, the;following scenario is currently possible:*

o During pla'nt' shutdown, mode determination is based upon " aver, age coolant temperature."' However, " average coolant temperature" is not defined in the' standard technical specifications.** Thus, by selecting an inappropriate temperature:to determine " average coolant temper 6ture" f an-inaccurate and premature mode determination could result.

  • o' Once a plant is declared to be 'in "co.ld. shutdown". (mode 5) plant-personnel may. disable redundant equipment and initiate maintenance, surveillance'or repair activities and'the DHR system may consist of

.only.one operable train.

o _The plant becomes highly vulnerable to losing the DHR system due 1 to.a single component failure.

As noted in Tacle 1, standard technical specification definitions of operational modes depend upon " average coolant temperature." However,

" average coolant temperature" is not defined in the standard plant technical

  • We are unable to ascertain if this scenario has actually occurred thus far. However, review of operating data leads us to believe that the likelihood of occurrence is high. }

B&W plants, it was. learned that the B&W plants are not consistent in'the methods they use to determine when cold shutdown conditions.have.been.

e - +

achievel Most of'the plants depend uoon only one temperature measurement' to make a. mode determination. Some of the temperature readings that the B&W

~

Y licensees use to determi.ne .when cold shutdown' is achieved are:*

. lo- Cold 1eg temperature .

oD Hot leg' temperature e

o DHR pump outlet temperature o DHR pump suction line temperature o DHR return line temperature However, we note that a reading of only one of these temperatures does not provide a valid indication of " average coolant temperature." Operating experien e has shown that for B&W plants on DHR cooling, the." average primary coolant temperature" can be. much higher than sany temperatures'being used for~ mode determination (Refs. 25 through 29). 'The hot leg tempera-tures,** especially coolant near the top 'of, the " candy canes'," in the reactor upper head region, in the pressurizer, and in the pressurizer surge '

line, may be at substantially hotter temperatures than the temperatures

-being used for mode determination. As a result of a premature designation ,

of cold shutdown, it is quite likely that plant personnel may disable safety l systems and defeat DHR system redundancy in' order to initiate test, maintenance and repair operations which are allowed during cold shutdown, prior to actually achieving cold shutdown conditions. In essence, safety-related equipment which may be required during hot shutdown conditions may be bypassed or disabled prior to actually establishing the conditions required for their disablement.

We.no'te that if some of the loss-of-DHR events had occurred while the primary coolant system temperature was higher, and the decay heat generation i rate was higher, less time would have been available for re:overy and core ,

uncovery could have been reached. From the operating experience and our i calculations, it appears that the risks associated with the loss-of-DHR can be significantly increased by the premature declaration of cold shutdown and concomitant test, maintenance, and repair operations.***.

l 4.3.3 Omissions Regarding Equipment Operability As.part of.this case study, we reviewed the technical specifications of a number of plants. That review-revealed that the technical specifications at Oconee 1. 2 and 3 are incomplete with regard to shutdown modes and DHR system operability requirements; i.e.,

the technical. specifications for the Oconee plants do not define operation with RCS average temperature between 200 F and 525*F, and do not address DHR system

  • operability requirements during all shutdown modes.

H ,

Our review of other plants' technical specifications did not identify omis-sions which are similar to those of the Oconee technical specifications.

(

'2 However., since we did not review the technical specifications for all plants, we are not sure that there are no other operating plants which have.similar omissions.

  • , J "' ' ' 5'.0' flNDINds AND"CONCLU5 IONS' U.S. PWR. experience has shown that dur.ing abo'ut 500 reactor years, 130'

/

losses of operating DHR systems were reported (0.25 event per reactor year). N' Some of those events lasted for several hours.

The' operational- data clearly ' indicate that hunia'n ' factors were 't'h e rootJ -

causes.,of most of the loss-of-DHR events.that have been reported to have- ,

+

occurred at U.S. PWRs through 1983." Inadequate procedures.and operator /-

technician errors during testing, surveillance, maintenance, and repair operations were the root causes of almost two-thirds of those loss-of-DHR events.

As noted in section 2.2, review of operational data, licensee submittals, and scoping calculations all indicate that primary system boiloff and core uncovery,can occur during certain events within a few hours after loss of the DHR system. .The situation can be especially acute if.the RC5'is par a tially drained, if the event is initiated by a LOCA shortly after the DHR system is activated, or if the loss occurs during~the first several days of plant shutdown. Fortunately, the plants have recovered from the loss-of-DHR events that have occurred thus far, before sustaining serious consequences.

In addition, under certain conditions,* primary system pressurization could occur at all types of U.S. PWR plants within 30 to 60 minutes after losing the DHR system. Such pressurization could challenge the low-temperature overpressure (LTOP) protection equipment. An extended failure to restore the DHR function could result in a small braak LOCA, with primary-system boiloff at the LTOP relief valve setpoint pressure. Continued boiloff could lead to core uncovery in as few as two to three hours. 'l

- The results of NSAC's probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) of loss-of-DHR events at Zion (Ref. 14) and Reference 15 support our position that a risk assessment of DHR system losses is of little real benefit because of the large uncertainty associated with the quantification of human factors events 4 (human factors being the dominant cause of the DHR system loss events), the l' difficulty in obtaining accurate failure data, and the differences in plant designs. We view the many loss-of-DHR events which have occurred at PWRs thus far (one loss-of-DHR event every four (PWR) reactor years, which t equates to more than a dozen such events each calendar year) as a signifi-  !

cant group of precursors. We conclude that corrective actions are required I to minimize the risk associated with DHR losses. )

l As noted in section 3.1, we have been unable to detect a significant '

industry-wide improvement in DHR loss' experiences. If licensees wEre to incorporate the lessons learned from previous loss-of-DHR experiences, especially the recommendations provided in NSAC-52, we would expect to see a significant improvement in their DHR loss experience. However, the absence of such an industry-wide improvement, and the continued occurrence of DHR l loss events, led us to conclude that many licensees may not be incorporating j NSAC 52's recommendations. ,

5.1 Human Factors Considerations .

From our analysis and evaluation of operational data', we.~ontlude c that many plants do not pay adequate attention to the human factors aspects of plant operations, testing, surveillance, and maintenance during plant shutdowns.

As shown in' Table 4, and 'as illustrated by the data appearing in Appendi-ces A, B, and C, faulty, procedures and operator / technician errors associated with plant shutdown operations were the underlying or. root causes of almost two-thirds'(83'of 130) of the repor*.ed loss-of-DHR system events.

Based on operating data and discussions with plant personnel and reactor inspectors, we conclude that the techniques used for planning and coordina-tion very widely from plant to plant and are frequently inadequate to prevent the occurrence of many loss of-DHR events. (Loss-of-DHR events have l

frequently resulted from conflicting or interacting outage activities.)

Most plants have. outage planning groups which look atc. outage scheduling from the standpoint of schedule and hardware availability. However, equipment l-.

and system interactions associated with ongoing test, surveillance, and maintenance activities do not necessarily receive adequate planning or attention unless there is a particular technical specification requirement associated with it. Improved outage planning which focuses on the timing of conflicting or interacting activities could significantly decrease the frequency of loss-of-DHR events.

With regard to the man / machine interface associated with DHR system operation and malfunctions, we found that for many plants:

(. o Existing procedures and equipment associated with RCS level monitoring during plant shutdowns are frequently inadequate and are failure prone. Inadvertent and undetected reduction of RCS inventory is a potentially significant contributor to risk associated with loss-of-DHR when the RCS is partially drained (26 events through 1983, and at least.six more events in 1984). We conclude that more reliable instrumentation and procedures should be used to reduce the frequency and, thus, the risk due to inventory problems leading to loss-of-DHR events.

o Dperator aids are not readily available to assist in the detection of abnormal plant behavior while the plant is in modes 4, 5 and 6.

Instrument alarms and annunciators are not conveniently located to enable the operators to integrate them into normal and emergency procedures during shutdown periods. In addition, operator aids are not available to enable operators to trend RCS and DHR system parameters during loss-of-DHR events (e.g., temperatures, pressures, flows, etc.).

We were informed by a reactor operator that during a recent DHR loss event, he had to rely upon his stopwatch and graph paper to determine

. how much margin was available prior to bulk boiling in the reactor.

Time margin information such as that depicted in Figure 4 is not generally available to operators to assist them in recovering from loss-of-DHR events (plot or table of time after DHR loss until bulk boiling or uncovery begins as a function of time after rod insertion at which DHR loss occurs).

5.2 Desion Considerations - Flow Path from the Reactor' Coolant System i to the Decay Heat Removal System . . . .

1 5.2.1 Double Drop Line Configuration l From our evaluation of the operating data, we conc 1'de u that. adding a second l crop line to provide a redundant DHR suction flow path will not result in a l significant improvement in DHR system reliability and availability.

Furthermore, the double drop line configuration may result in an overall l increase in risk due to the increase in the probability of Event V. As an l alternate to tr.e double drop line configuration, a suction bypass line (as discussed in section 2.1) may provide a less expensive, and possibly safer (when considering Event V) method for improving DHR availability. We con-cluded that the use of a DHR suction bypass line would have contributed significantly to mitigating the September 1981 Oconee 2/ event ~which resulted in significant onsite contamination and an extensive' outage (see section 3.1). The suction bypass line would have introduced an alternate j DHR flow path enabling a more rapid cooldown, thereby reducing the amount of '

leakage, contamination and down-time.

5.2.2 Inadvertent Closure of DHR System Suction / Isolation Valves As noted in section 2.2, closure of DHR system suction / isolation valves shortly af ter initiation of the DHR system could result in an LTOP cha11enga to the RCS at PWRs within 30 minutes,* with core uncovery occurring as j early as about two to three hours after valve closure. '

Operating data has shown that for DHR system operation, removal of power or removal of the autoclosure interlocks to the DHR suction / isolation valves can be a safe, effective method for preventing spurious suction / isolation I

( may be nscessary prior to removing power.or the autoclosure interlocks to the suction / isolation valves.'

This case study. report hasistimulated 'aiu'c h interest.in the subject of auto-closure interlocks.~ Based upon an. earlier (1984) draft of this case study report, Sandia Laboratories' performed a risk assessment'as part.of' Task A-45 evaluating the competing risks associated with DHR suction / isolation valve closures and Event V. Their report (Ref. 30), '? Potential Benefits Obtained by Requiring Safety-Grade Cold Shutdown Systems," was done for the Calvert Cliffs plants' configuration. Subsequent to their quantification of risks, Sandia concluded that:

"The lowest core melt frequency due to the combination of loss of RHR suction during cold, shutdown end V-LOCAs.js obtained when there are no autoclosure interlocks on the RHR suction valves... removing the overpressure interlocks from the RHR suction' valves give's the best RHR suction arrangement for PWRs based upon this analysis.

...when interlocks are present, loss of RHR suction is the largest contributor to core melt frequency for all assumed values of P(CM-LRHRs).** however, when the interlocks are not present, the core melt frequency due to loss of RHR suction is comparable to or less than

- the V-LOCA core melt f requency for the "best estimate" cases.

f Finally, we believe that the "best" RHR suction valve arrangement is to

\

have a single suction line without primary system over pressure interlocks on the valves."

l l In. response to the earlier draf t of this case study, NRR reviewed the issue t of "RCS/RnR Suction Line Interlocks on PWRs." NRR performed a prioritiza-

-tion evaluation (a simplified risk and cost assessment). As a result, on August 13, 1985, in Reference 31, the Director of NRR forwarded a copy of his staff's prioritization of this issue, assigned it a'"HIGH" priority ranking, and directed the Director of the Division of Systems Integration to take the actions necessary to resolve this issue. I It is also important to note that Westinghouse has evaluated Kewaunee's proposal for removing the autoclosure interlocks on the DHR suction valves.

Reference 6 notes that Westinghouse's analysis concluded that for Kewaunee, the proposed modification would be a safety improvement. NRR has subsequently approved the modification. As noted in Reference 6, the effects of e"toclosure interlock removal upon plant safety must be The Davis-Besse and Zion plants use this approach, and the Kewaunee plant has recently received NRC approval to remove its autoclosure interlocks.

5.3 TFchnical Specification Deficiencies * '

5.3.1 . Mode Definition /Early Disabli.ng of Equipment' We found that most plants' tectinical specifications are imprecise t

'with .

.rega'rd to' the1 designation of plant operating inodes becliuse the aver'age .

coolant temperature's are undefined. 'As a result, a premature' designation of cold shutdown is possible,_and thus equipment can be disabled.or bypassed and DHR-redundancy eliminated during conditions of high decay heat load. As noted in section 4.3, it is possible to enter a condition in which equipment may be bypassed prior to properly establishing the conditions required for the bypass. Thus, the plant is more vulnerable to loss-of-DHR due to a single failure, and with the higher decay heat, improper mode definition can reduce;the time available to prevent core u.ncovery,

~

We ' conclude that regulatory action should be taken to assure the' proper definition of shutdown . mode, and assure Dt:R redundancy during periods of high decay heat load. The use of a grace period ** based upon available DHR i

recovery time may be a viable alternative to th_e present practices.

5.3.2 Absence of Requirements for RCS Level Measurement During Shutdown Our review of technical specifications concluded that the lack of requirements for RCS level measurement and monitoring during shutdown and I

draindown is a significant generic safety deficiency. Considering that:

l l o there have been a significant number of long duration DHR losses involving inadequate RCS level in re' cent years (including six in 1984),

and o the times available for recovery prior to reaching unsafe conditions l are relatively short, we have concluded that regulatory action should be initiated to ensure reliable RCS level measurement.

  • These deficiencies may be viewed by some as human factors type deficiencies because of their impact upon plant operating procedures, etc.
    • Prohibit entering mode S until certain time, heatup rate, or recovery time criteria are met, l

('1) AEOD recommends'that NRR assess the need for~NRC requirements to improve planning, coordination; procedures, and personnel training during shutdown to ensure the availability of DHR.

k

Webelieve.that'significant;1 improvements;i$tDHRs:ys't'em-availabilityand reliabi_lity can be achieved by focusing upon human factors aspects of plant shutd6wn.' LWe recognize' the. fact"that NRR.i tinit'ati.ng i a ' generic ma'inten '

ante and surveillance program'to look into some of thesE issues (Ref. 32).

We recommend that, as part'of that effurt, NRR'should review indur.try practice and determir.: if guidelines or specific requirements are necessary to ensure plant safety during DHR system operation. Emphasis should be placed upon detailed planning of test, surveillance and maintenance activi-ties, and the equipment or system interactions which have frequently caused loss-of-DHR systems.

In addition, plant practices regarding the procedures and training of personnel for performance of normal (non-emergency)' operations during shutdown should be evaluated. For example: all operations and maintenance staff (licensed and non-licensed) should receive training to assure that they become senritized to the risks associated with plant shutdown. ~Empha-sis should be placed upon understanding the risks and high vulnerability associated with times of high decay heat rate, drain and fill operations, disabling redundant safety equipment, etc.

(2) AEOD recommends that NRR require PWR licensees to have a reliable method of measuring and monitoring reactor vessel level during shutdown }

modes of operation and corresponding technical specification requirements for operability.

Common industry practice using unanalyzed makeshift devices such as failure prone tygon tJbe sight gages to monitor RCS !evel during plant shutdown should be modified or discontinued. We recommend that NRR require the licensees to use reliable, RCS level monitoring instruments during modes 4, 5, and 6. Consideration should be given to requiring redundant level indication during modes 4, 5, and 6 to ensure availability of trending data, and to warn operators in advance of unacceptably low RCS level. In addition, plant procedures should be modified to assure that the frequency of RCS level monitoring is commensurate with plant status (e.g., as noted in section 4.1, one plant could have monitored vessel level as infrequently as once every 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br />, whereas fuel uncovery could occur only a few hours after a loss-of-DHR). As a minimum, each plant's safety review committee should review the instrumentation and procedures used for RCS level measurement during modes 4, 5 and 6 to ensure that b high level of reliability is achieved.

(,3 ) AEOD recommends that NRR require the licensees to improve the man-machine interfaces related to DHR operation.

We recognize that all DHR losses cannot be totally eliminated by good planning, goed procedures, well-trair.ed personnel, etc. We believe that if all licensees would perform human factors analyses of their plants' DHR operations, (including normal and abnormal conditions) and modify their l

( factors analysesL is one use'd by NRR'(Ref. 33). Reference 33 requires

-licensees to perfotm i specific task analyses, and to integrate instruments-tion, alarms and annunciators into normal and emergency procedures for transients and. accid.ents occurring during power operation. As'a minimum, we recommend that NRR consider requ' iring licensees to perform' human-factors

, reviews as described in; Reference 33, but extend them.to shut'down opera-

' tions, with emphasis on detection an'd mit'igation of 1655-o.f-DHR events.

The operat' ors should be provided with informat' ion (sech as Figure 4).

outlining the time margins available for recovery from postulated loss-of-DHR events as a function of time from reactor trip for a representative set of DHR loss transients. Examples of such transients are: primary system filled at maximum DHR system temperature; primary system drained to minimum level and open to the atmosphere; RCS at refueling temperature, etc.

Information on time margins available would assist operators in recognizing the potential seriousness of the event, and assist them.in choosing apprentiate methods for restoration of the DHR function.

(4) AEOD does not recommend changing the design of DHR systems to include

'redunoant drop lines.

Based upon our analysis of the suction / isolation valve closure logic at plants having redundant drop lines, and operating data, we do not recommend adding a second drop line to plants that now have a single drop line configuration. Such a design change is being considered as part of A-45.

( Howev9r, if N".R's A-45 task concludes that a single drop line configuration is unacceptable, and additional reliability is required, it is recommended that NRR consider a smaller diameter DHR suction bypass line as a possible alternative. The bypass line configuration which we believe worthy of consideration is one with remotely operated valves to which power is locked '

out (actuation to be performed outside containment), with manual overrides (inside containment) to provide additional assurance of their opening in the event of motor or power source problems. This design would represent an

-improvement over the Davis-Besse design which cannot be operated from ^

outside containment. (See sections 2.1 and 5.2.1.)

(5) AEOD recommends that NRR consider removal of the autoclosure interlocks to minimize loss-of-DHR events.

In order to prevent inadvertent DHR suction / isolation valve closures (during DHR system operation) it is recommended that NRR consider either requiring the removal of the autoclosure interlocks to the DHR suction / isolation valves, or requiring removal of power to the DHR suction / isolation valves when valve motion is not required. Prior to implementing this recommenda-tion, it is necessary to ensure that there is adequate relief capacity to prevent overpressurization of the DHR system. (See sections 2.2 and 5.2.2.) ,

NSAC-52 (Ref. 3) had a similar recommendation.

high likelihood that a DHR loss could occur, at a time when the risk is highest. Upon considering operati.onal data and the plant practices, we believe that regulatory action is necessary to minimize the possibility'of DHR losses during periods of high risk (early in shutdown).

We recommend that NRR's technical specification improvement program address the DHR system operating requirements so that licensees modify plant

. technical specifications to: ,

o assure all planti have' proper shutdown mode definitions-(as' discussed'in sections 4.3 and 5.3); and o ensure that both trains of the DHR system are operable durin'g periods of high decay hedt lo6d, i.e., mode 4 and the early stages of mode 5.

(Presently, the applicable generic letter permits one train to be inoperable during this time.) -

Since tht less-of-DHR experience has not greatly improved following the issuance of NSAC-52'and NRR's generic letter, we believe that technical ,

specification modifications are necessary to ensure adequate redundancy. In addition, we feel that an information notice should be issued to reemphasize to the licensees the overall safety significance associated with the l operation of the DHR systems.

Decay ' Heat ' Removal System ' Loss'es 'at Davis-Besse

~

- Some of the most striking data on DHR losses 'comes from a. r'eview of the l Davis-Besse pl' ant'so' perating experience. From 1918 - 1981', thh Duis-Bessp- ~

L plant 1 accrued the. largest. numbe' r of reported DHR losses of 'any PWR: 16 .

events.* Seven..of those. events involved automatic closure of the suction /-

isolat' ion valves. There had be~en 'sev'en previous closures of the 'stiction/-

isolation valves during plant 'startup and testing; however,' those seven events are not included in the tally of 16. Subsequent to 1981, there have been no DHR losses at the Davis-Sesse plant. A detailed review of that plant's experience is quite enlightening.

Table Ck presents a listing of DHR suction / isolation valve events which have taken place at the Davis-Besse plant. Table C2 presents descrip-tions of all loss-of-DHR events wnich occurred at the Davis-Besse' plant from startup testing through 1983, Most of:the inadvertent closures of the suction / isolation valves were due to human .f actors (operator errors, incorrect procedures, lack -of. procedures, ~

etc.),and' resultant failures of power supplies to the safety features actuation system (SFAS) channels. Most of the events which occurred sub-sequent- to power operation were of short duration (four lasted four minutes ,

or less and one lasted 18 minutes). Recovery from most of those events  !

required only ' clearing the perturbing signals and reopening the isolation

' valves. There were two events which. lasted much longer:

f o 'On' April 19,1980, a 2 }-hour loss-of-DHR event was initiated by a f ailure of an instrument bus, which eventually resulted in the closing of the suction /1 solation valves. Restoration of the DHR system was impeded by air binding of the DHR pump. The licensee's lack of procedures.

for restoring the air bound pump and the extensive modification and maintenance activities tnat were Deing conducted at the time contributed to tnat event, o That event was reported to Congress as an Abnormal Occurrence (Ref.16).

The abnormal occurrence determination was made on the basis that the event represented a " serious deficiency in management or procedural controls in major areas."

o On July 24,1980, a 50-minute loss-of-DHR event occurred as a result of suction / isolation valve closure. That event is of considerable interest because restoration of the DHR system was accomplished by using the suction bypass line to establish a flow path for the DHR system.

  • The 16 loss-of-DHR events were complete losses of the DHR system function when the DHR system was required to remove decay heat.

'Af ter 4he 14th inadvertent' suction / isolation val've clohre event, the' NRC

+

~

.ap'p roved'an amendment to Davis-Besse's technical. spec.ifIcations allowing H'

  • removal ^ of power from the DHR. suction / isolation valves 'dur,ing plant shutdown.

(To preclude returning the plant to power with'.the .DHR suction /. isolation . ,

val'ves Open, the. pressurizer heaters are interlocked with the'9HR suction /

isolation' valves. The pressurizer heatbrs 46%ut be sctivated above the setpoint of the 'DHR' re' lief valve if both' of the DHR isola' tion valves are open. The pressurizer heaters are also interlocked so that if only one DHR isolation valve is closed, the heaters ~ will shut off at a pressure

% below the DHR system design pressure.)

Subsequent to the implementation of the aforementioned technical specifica-tion amendment,' the Davis-Besse plant has not experienced any further inadvertent DHR suction / isolation valve closures, it appears that.the Davis-Besse plant's solution to the spurious DHR suction / isolation. valve closure problems which have led.to many loss of DHR system events has been-effective. Furthermore, we note that as a result of the April 19, 1980 event (Zi-hour DHR system. loss), the licensee.took action to modify operating-and emergency procedures to minimize the possibility of a recurrence.

Additional guidance was given to the plant staff on how to recover.from loss-of-DHR events, including the venting of DHR pumps, and the implementation - '

offbackup cooling sources. Steps were also taken to improve administrative controls during shutdown.

^

NRR's June 11, 1980 generic letter on DHR (Ref. 24) requested all PWRs to '

amend their technical specifications to provide for redundancy in DHR capacity. In response to NRR's generic letter on DHR, the Davis-Besse plant submitted an amendment to their technical specifications, indicating that an operable system will always be kept in a standby state during modes 3-6 in order to. assure continuous DHR in the event that the operating heat removal system should f ail.

Subsequent to implementing the aforementioned improvements in DHR system  ;

. operation, there have been no similar. losses of the DHR system at the Davis-Besse plant, it appears that the corrective actions that were taken at the Davis-Besse plant have resulted in a substantial improvement in DHR system operation.

'Deatier. of event- unknown)77-009 July 22,1977 During plant startup and testing, while inspecting (2 events) for loose electrical insulation, an 1&C mechanic caused a current surge, which resulted in closing a DHR isolation valve. About 15 minutes later, after restoring the DHR flow, he caused another (identical) event which resulted in DHR isolation valve closure. (Duration of event unknown)78-060 May 28,' 1978 DHR flow was lost for about 2 minutes. An operator accidentally bumped a control switch de-energizing the bus supply power to the DHR pump.

'De.scribtion of Event'78-067 June 15,1978 Three loss:of DHR events lasting & total of about (3 events) 2 minutes. Power was interrupted to the operating

' . DHR pump. .The other pump was inoperable .at.th'e time. . Maintenance personnel . accidentally ~ bumped-a relay tripping the operating DHR pump. An operator made two errors while trying to transfer poner to an essential bus (resulting in two other power interruptions to the pump).79-067 hoe 28,1979 18-minute loss of DHR. During surveillance test-ing, a slipped alligator clip caused a short circuit and failure of power supply to an SFAS channel. As a result, DHR suction valve closed. 6 80-030 April 18,1980 .29-minute loss of DHR. Leakage of RCS water through a partially closed valve resulted in inadequate DHR pump NPSH and erratic pump flow operation. The pump was secured until the leak was stopped and RCS level restored. During the event, RCS temperature rose from 93*F to 103*F.80-029 April 19,1980' 2 j-hour loss of DHR. Vibration from construction

( work actuated a ground . fault relay. Due to an .

abnormal electrical lineup associated with outage {

Jctivities, loss of power resulted in SFAS actu- '

ation. Control power to the DHR suction valves was lost, causing the suction valves to close. The SFAS actuation transferred the DHR pump suction

' to the BWST and then to the empty sump. The pump became airbound. RCS temperature increased from 90 F to 170 F while the vessel. head was detensioned  ;

(140*F is the maximum temperature allowed while the '

vessel head is detensioned).80-043 May 28,1980 2-minute loss of DHR due to an inadvertent closure of a DHR isolation valve. An I&C mechanic was checking out a plant modification. Due to a test procedure inadequacy, the isolation valve interlock circuit was actuated, and the valve closed.

l 80-044 May 31,1980 8-minute loss of DHR flow. The operating DHR pump was secured by a control room operator.

i (An I&C mechanic took a DHR flow meter out of l- service to perform surveillance testing. Control )

room personnel were unaware of this. Upon '

l seeing that the DHR system flow had dropped offscale, a control room operator stopped the

[ pump.) i l

LER#- Date- Description L' 80 049- June 14,1980 DHR pump. flow loss for about 2 minutes.  ;

Inadvertent 5FAS actuation caused DHR pump realignment to the BWST and_ BWST isolation. An 18C mechanic was restoring containment pressure inputs to SFAS following an Integrated Leak Rate Test. Because of a procedural inadequacy, SFAS was actuated and the DHR pump was realigned to .,

deliver BWST water to the RCS and the refueling  !

canal. .When BWST level dropped to the low level limit,'SFAS level 5 actuation took place closing the BWST. isolation valve causing a loss of i suction-to the DHR pump..

\

1 80-058 July 24,1980 DHR flow was lost for. 50 minutes because of an

- automatic closure of an isolation valve. An electrician blew a fuse while conducting wire pulling operations associated with a plant design change. As a result of the blown fuse,-

, an automatic closure of one of the DHR isolation valves took place, and the pump became air-bound.

The DHR flow path was restored by opening the manual bypass valves. During the event, the hottest in-core thermocouple temperature rose from 104'F to 111*F.80-058 July . 24,1980 DHR flow was lost- for about 2 minutes due to an inadvertent closure. of one of the DHR isolation valves. Subsequent to making a plant modifica-tion, an I&C mechanic performed restoration work out of sequence. As a result, one of the isola-tion valves closed.

^

l80-058 August 8,1980 DHR flow was lost for about 3 minutes due to an inadvertent closure of one of the DHR isolation valves. Valve closure occurred during maintenance when a bistable in the valve circuit was removed  !

due to a procedural error.

80-060: August 13, 1980 DHR flow was lost for about 5 minutes due to an inadvertent closure of one of the DHR isolation valves. Valve closure occurred during SFAS

, channel modification work. The 18C mechanic

' f ailed to fully defeat the automatic isolation valve trip prior to performing SFAS channel l moc'ification work.

PLANT SYSTEMS BRANCH REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGAPDING THE VERMONT YANKEE SPENT FUEL POOL RERACK MODIFICATION.

1. Describe, in some detail, the procedure that will be used for (1) removal of the fuel assemblies from the present racks. (2) removal and disposal of the racks themselves, (i.e., crating intact, or cutting and drumming), (3) installation of the new high density racks and (4) Ioading the new racks with the presently stored spent fuel assemblies. The description should include, step by step, the number of people involved in each step of the procedure, including divers if they are found to be necessary, the dose rate they will be exposed to, the times spent in the radiation fields, and the estimated man-rem associated with each step of the operation.
2. Demo.. strate that the method used for removal and disposal of the old racks will result in ALARA exposures.
3. Discuss the build-up of crud along the sides of the pool and the removal methods that will be used to reduce radiation levels at the edge of the pool to ALARA levels.
l. Identify the raciation monitoring systems that will be used, and, indicate their locations in the spent fuel pool area. The monitoring systems in question are those which are to provide a warning to the personnel when-ever the area radiation levels ir. crease inadvertently to preset alarm trigoer levels.
5. Specify the present dese rate in occupied areas outside the spent fuel pool concrete shield wall. Provide an estimate of the potential increase of this dose rate if the space between the spent fuel and inside concrete shield wall is reduced due to the proposed modification.
6. Provide a sumary estimate of the projected changes in environmental doses ,

resulting from the spent fuel pool modification. The estimates should j include annual, as well as, total plant life doses. This also should 1 include an estimate of the potential amount of K-85 and H-3 released due {

to additional fuel being stored in the spent fuel pool.

7. Describe the estimated changes in the spent fuel pool filter dose rates, if any.
8. Indicate the depth of spent fuel pool water which nonnally will lie over stored-in-place fuel elements, and provide the resulting pool surface dose rates for this condition.
9. Relative to the proposed rerack modification, describe how an ALARA design reviest was conducted and documented. Indicate how the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 8.8 were met. The description should include available examples of how the experience of other facilities was utilized to help assure that post-modification operation and maintenance doses would be ALARA. Include a general description of the Vermon-Yankee ALARA program

- that will be applied during spent. fuel pool operation.

11. The submittal identifies compliance with the guidelines of Branch Techni- i cal Position ASB 9-2, but does not identify compliance with Standard l

Review Plan Section 9.1.3. Verify compliance with the guidelines of Standard Review Plan Section 9.1.3 and in particular with the specified uncertainty factor.

12. In the spent fuel cooling analysis, the submittal specifies the assumed operating time for the fuel is 16,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br />. This is not correct. For the annual refueling case the power operating time should be 35,040 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> and for the 18 month fuel cycle should be 39.420 hours0.00486 days <br />0.117 hours <br />6.944444e-4 weeks <br />1.5981e-4 months <br />. Provide the results of a revised analysis using the correct power operating times. 1 (Note: a capacity factor maybe applied if adequate justification for the I selected value is provided.)
13. Provide a discussion of the capability of the service water system to j remove the increased heat load associated with the increased storage j capability vithout raising the RBCCWS water temperature above 85*F for the worst heat load conditions.
14. Provide the following information for each spent fuel pool cooling system heat exchanger.

c1 Tubesurfacearea(squarefeet) b) Overall conductance (BTU /sq-ft-Hr 'f) c) Design flow rates for

1) Spent fuel pool water (Lbs/ hour)
2) RBCCWS water (Lbs/ hour) i j
15. Provide a discussion of when and how the numbers provided in response to '

question 14 were verified by actual performance testing.

16. Provide the design details of the spent fuel pool cooling system heat exchangers.
17. Provide a discussion as to the design features of the spent fuel pool cooling system related to meeting the single failure criterion with the spent fuel storage fecility filled with normal refueling and maintaining the pool vater temperature at less than 140*F. 3 18.. Provide the prcposed changes to the Technical Specifications. Based on the submittal indicating that the spent fuel pool cooling system is under sized, provide a commitment in the proposed Technical Specification modification to require the facility to be in cold shutdown conditions prior to aligning a loop of RHR for cooling the spent fuel pool.

19. Provide the spent fuel cooling capability model which was used to verify adequate natural circulation along with the detailed assumptions and ..

inputs. For each input / assumption which is not identical to the General Electric Company's fuel analysis for licensing the fuel, provide the General Electric Company's input / assumption and a discussion as to why the input / assumption used is conservative.

20. Provide design drawinns of the rack modules.
21. Provide the fuel loading pattern in the spent fuel pool showing each reload with each bundle's equivalent full power operating time in hours.
22. Provide the results cf a vector velocity analysis which demonstrates that each bundle will receive adequate flow for the fuel loading pattern specified in response to question 21 with respect to the spent fuel pool water return lines. - Alternatively, show by analysis that each bundle will receive adequate flow independently of the fuel loading pattern.
23. Provide drawings showing the proposed exact routing and water distribution system within the spent fuel storage facility.

24 Provide a discussion as to why ignoring the downcomer effects in.the

' . ant fuel storage locations is conservative. If the fuel is stored in a

. 28. Provide drawints which show:

a) The arrangement of the spent fuel in the pool when each existing rack l is being' removed and each new rack is being installed.

-b) The sequence of each rack removal and installation of each new rack, c) The path'which each rack will follow within the pool, within the reactor building, and within any other area until the rack is outside of all safety-related structures.

d) The maximur 'neight that each rack will be lifted above the surface below.

e) The relationship of each load path to other safety-related systems and components and to embedded structural beams within each surface over which the rack will pass.

29. For'the spent fuel pool, and any other body of water over which the racks may pass, provide the results of an analysis of dropping the rack at its maximum carrying height. The results should address the effects of splashing water out of the pool, impact effects en the pool liner at its weakest point (at the leakage detection traces),

and impact on other fuel storage racks.

30. Verify that if.the rack were to fall on its side that no fuc1 would be impacted.

. VERMONT YANKEE PROPOSED SFP RERACK DECAY HEAT LOADS & POOL TEMPERATURES

Background

  • At time of licensing Vermont Yankee, spent fuel reprocessing was anticipated
  • Anticipated heat-loads would be from 1.25 to 1.5 cores
  • The proposed rerack is the second rerack for Verront Yankee

. Basis

  • Decay heat loads are calculated using the guidance of Section 9.1.3 and the Branch Technical Position ASB 9.5-2 of the Standard Review Plan (NUREG-0800)
  • Assumes the SFP is filled with fuel from normal refuelings
  • Uses the actual past reload data and the licensee's projected refueling data.

Applies the single failure criterion.

  • Smallest SPF cooling system (pump flow and heat exchanger capacity) that we have seen todate
  • Licensee has requested continuance of the current 150*F Technical Specification limit for the SFP water - this is the design limit for the cooling system
  • Degradation of SFP Cleanup System when water temperature exceeds 140'F i

Potential Technical Solutions

  • Addition of third SFP Cooling train
  • Increase the pump flow rates and heat exchanger capacities for both trains Current Position
  • For each refueling, remain in cold shutdown for a minimum of 68 days (149 days if the Technical Specification temperature limit is 140*F)
