I INTRODUCTION i l This is the originsl Rancho Seco Emergency Operating Procedure i Technical Basis (RS-EOP-TB) prepared per the EOP Writers Guide l AP 2.24. l l BACKGROUND I 1 i The symptom based E0Ps were written and issued in April 1985 based on the Rancho Seco specific ATOG (ATOG). In September the l 5 B&W generic document " Emergency Operating Procedures Technical l Basis Document" (TBD) was issued which replaced _the site specific ) ATOGs prepared for each B&W utility. The TBD follows the same j basic symptom approach of the site ATOGs and includes improve-ments. developed since the site specific ATOGs were issued the 1982/1983 time. I EOP STATUS j 1 Implementation of the TBD improvements into the EOPs is being j done in a phased approach, coordinated with training and plant i operational status to assure operatot familiarity with the pro- { cedures when the plant is operating, This document demonstrates q the degree to which the procedures implement the TBD and provides the justification for TBD actions which are not implemented. A schedule (pre or post-startup) is provided for TBD actions not yet implemented. The post startup schedule is outside the scope of this document. The E0Ps, except the cooldown procedures (cps), implement the TBD unless otherwise noted in this report. The cps are based on the ATOG cps but have been revised to incorporate some TBD actions i necessary to complement TBD improvements made to the E procedures. i The E0Ps on which this basis is written are those of manual change P0M-248 dated October 1, 1987. The index showing the ! revision numbers is attached. The TBD to which this basis is ) written is B&W document 74-1152414-00 approved September'3,.1985. The ATOG to wnich the cps are compared is B&W document 74-1127469-01 , approved March 6, 1984. FORMAT Each TBD section is compared to the E0Ps with differences identi-fied. Additionally, the TBD diagnosis and mitigation section flow charts are compared to the E0P flow charts with differences identified. . i I-I i

DIFFERENCES: -.
- 1. The E0Ps do not always start just one RCP if SCM was first lost, then FW was found not to be available (LOCA which depressurizes RCS with concurrent loss of FW). 'In the first case, one RCP is run.
If the i operator determines that heat transfer (i.e., FW) is lost before SCM is ! required, then E.03 Step 12.0 goes to E.04 which, with no FW available, ' gets to Step 5.0 which in 5.2.5 will result in running the RCP when SCM is regained. In the second case, two RCPs are initially started, then reduced to one If the operator { if heat input raises RCS temperature / pressure. determines that heat transfer (i.e. FW) is lost af ter SCM is reg &ined (or if FW is actually lost after SCM is regained) then E.03 Steps 7.0 and 13-16 start one RCP per loop. When the loss of FW/ heat transfer is f noted E.04 Step 20 goes to E.04. If running two RCPs adds excessive heat which cannot be removed through the LOCA, the RCS will heatup and E.04 Step 2.0 then pressurize, eventually reaching the EMOV setpoint. i goes to Step 5.0 which at 5.2.5 reduces running RCPs to one. The net result is that in either case only one RCP is run if needed to limit RCS heat input. ACTION: l Revise E.03 Step 16 to only start one RCP if no FW is available. 1 IMPLEMENTATION: j ( Post Restart JUSTIFICATION: The E0Ps currently limit RCP heat input by running only one RCP if the LOCA is not large enough to remove all heat, however, a period of two { l RCP operation may occur. The TBD guidance to run only one RCP is not mandatory, thus two RCP operation is allowed. j l ! k i l E' III 8-7

ACTION . s Revise CP.104 Step 7 to include the case of a saturated cooldown.on OTSGs after initially not needing 0TSGs. Add 7.3, "The RCS is saturated' l ! and RCS pressure and temperature stabilize or. start to increase along the saturation curve THEN go.to Step 9.0.

- 3. The TBD action to continue efforts .to restore heat transfer to the one i' SG without heat transfer when on natural ~ circulation is an enhancement over ATOG and is optional. This action mainly consists of RCP bumps l

- 1. E0Ps do not specifically direct verification of LPI. flow when RCS pressure reaches LPI discharge pressure, rather, this is accomplished by training, particularly 522:lator exercises. Steps which close CFT 1 valves and which terminate HPI require checking LPI flow, thus the operator is aware of the need to check LPI flow and will look for it to start as RCS pressure drops as a prerequisite to CFT/HPI termination.
For the reasons noted and since this is not a mandatory action, it is ; not included in E0Ps.
- 2. With both LPI/0HR tystems operating (one in DHR mode) and SCM is lost, E0Ps (CP.103 Steps 16.0 and 19.5) do not place both systems in the LPI mode.
ACTION Revise CP.103 Step 18.6 to include a substep 18.6.1 to return the A DHR system'to LPI mode if SCM is lost. Revise CP.103 Step 19.0 to align both systems in LPI mode. IMPLEMENTATION Pre-Sta rtup II I . B-17 1

However, the operators are trained, particularly on simulator exercises, to expect this response and will take appropriate actions to minimize the chance of a loss of SCM. If SCM is lost, the operator will recycle back to E.03, trip RCPs, then following the E0P logic will return to the steps to restore heat j

The operators are trained at the simulator- l during inadequate heat. transfer to attempt to maximize primary to- j secondary heat. transfer. The operators thus would be expected to start the RCP in the loop with the operable OTSG, for this obviously would be more effective in restoring heat transfer than starting the RCP in the loop with an inoperable OTSG. E.04 Step 12.2.2 has a preferred' starting i sequence which assumes both OTSGs are operable. If an RCP is started in- l the loop with an inoperable OTSG heat transfer will not be restored to I l the inoperable OTSG, alerting the operator that the action was not- I effective, whereupon the operator will start an RCP in the other loop. 1

- 3. The TBD action is to open the EMOV, thereby reducing RCS pressure and
("N increasing HPI flow. The TBD,.then has the operator close the EMOV in certain circumstances. This is an optional action when attempting to s i restore primary to secondary heat transfer. :The EOPs do not include l this optional action so operator efforts can be concentrated on restoring heat transfer without having to divert' attention to EMOV control. Not operating the EMOV minimizes the chance of failure.and~ j hold EMOV operation in reserve for times when its' operation is more ! critical (ie-HPI cooling). )
- 4. This refers to TBD III.C.3.5.C.
The E0Ps do not explicitly state not to override RCP interlocks whenever RCPs are started, rather state when. interlocks are'to be overridden 1 j (ICC), thus operators will not. override . interlocks at this point. j Explicit direction is not' required. RCP NPSH does not exist at this l I point because the RCS is saturated thus, it is not necessary to include j a discussion of RCP NPSH limits. The E0Ps thus conform to the intent of the TBO.
- 5. This step is permitted by ATOG. Running RCPs will couple the OTSGs to ')
the primary system, thus assuring OTSG heat transfer if feedwater is available. This action will also cool and contract the RCS, reducing RCS pressure which allows more HPI flow. This replaces lost RCS. inventory and may allow for the reestablishment of subcooling margin. Refer to ATOG Part II, Vol.1, Equipment Operation Section, for further justification for running RCPs in a saturated system after one hour. . 1 E.04 chose to maintain a 50*F temperature difference between the RCS and SG Tsat. rather than increasing the temperature difference to 100*F as- I suggested by the TBD. Since the RCP will continue to run and the SG~is ) established as a heat sink, HPI'will increase due to the reduced RCS pressure (as discussed above) and the initial'50'F temperature dif ference will provide a more than adequate thermal driving head. 1 ACTION: Consider implementing TBD III.C.3.4.C for guidance f or continued RCP bumps rather than continuous RCP operation (E.04 step 14) and l i increasing the RC/SG temper *.ture difference to 100*F.

Dif ference #1: E.02, Cuideline 4 and E.06 Step 1.0 primarily rely on radiation monitoring response to provide indication of a SGTR situation. This method is cited in the TBD as the most rapid means of SGTR identification while at power. The TBD also cites several " backup methods." Of these, reduction in steam outlet temperature and anomalies in FW flows and/or SG 1evels after reactor shutdown are not specifically addressed in E.06. Steam temperature indication at Rancho Seco is sensed downstream of the TBV's and ADV's and so, does not provide accurate indication unless the turbine generator is in-service. FW flows and/or SG 1evels would only be useful for SGTR situations if the leak was f airly large. Although these indicators are not directly used in E.06 as methods of detection, they are employed by the operators due to training, particularly at the simulator where evaluating for a SGTR situation includes evaluating any unexpected differences between OTSG secondary side parameters. Guideline 4 of E.02 indicates there may be other valid indications of a SGTR than those specifically cited in the Guidelines and to not l delay in taking action per E.06 if other indications make it clear a SGTR has occurred.

conditions. There are, however, limits cited by the TBD for l continued steaming'of an affected OTSG. Isolation would be required if any of these are reached during the cooldown. Implementation of the TBD philosophy into the EOP's is incomplete. The final aspect is to incorporate.the TBD isolation criteria based on the integrated ' dose limit. The TBD recommends this limit be no more that 10% of the 4 10 CFR 100 doses. Action: Revise the E0P's as required to complete incorporation of the TBD 1 f option to allow continued steaming of an affected OTSG-

. Maintain shutdown margin . Difference 1 l during cooldown. l 1
I DIFFERENCES:
- 1. No explicit direction is given in the cps to monitor / verify shutdown margin during cooldown. However, in CP.101, CF Tanks are emptying and injecting borated waters into the core. CFT boron concentration is predetermined to ensure adequate shutdown at cold post LOCA conditions.
In cps 103,104,105 either CFTs are actuated or HPI/LPI is activated which results in borated water being injected into the core. BWST boron concentration is also predetermined to ensure adequate shutdown at cold 4 conditions. In CP.102, which branches to either Section 5 or 6 of 8.4, Limits and Precautions exist to remind the operator of the 11% shutdown requirements. Because the baron concentration in the CFT/BWST has been predetermined to ensure adequate boration at cold conditions and B.4 contains requirements for 11% SD margin, and operator training covers shutdown requirements, CP revision is unnecessary.

- 1. The TBD states that one method of possibly collapsing an RCS void is by ambient loss. However, the TBD also states that this method is a slow process and may require extremely long cooldown times. E.06:
does not contain direction for allowing ambient heat loss to collapse an RCS void since, as the TBD states, it would prolong the cooldown. This would be contrary to a basic objective of completing a cooldown as soon as possible for a SGTR situation. Action: None required. Direction provided by E.06 to mitigate an RCS void incorporates the most expedient methods while allowing continuation of the cooldawn to comply with the basic SGTR objectives.

- 2. The TBD defines a RCP Bump as starting the pump and tripping it as soon as starting current drops off. The E0P's wait an additional 10 seconds af ter starting current drops off, to trip the pump. The reason for this is to ensure that about one loop transit time has passed prior to tripping the pump. This action ensures that voids in j the hot leg will be forced through the OTSG and thus enhance the j collapsing of voids. The intent of the TBD to collapse voidt, and j l
ensure heat transfer is met. l
- 3. Refer to analysis of TBD Section III.C.2.7/3.5 Difference #5.
- 4. E0P steps which bump RCP's do not explicitly require this action, however, they do establish the required AT prior to the pump bump and indicate to continue to bump pumps until heat transfer is restarted. Operators know that a primary to secondary delta T must be maintained if primary to secondary heat transfer is to be established, thus maintain the specified delta T. This need is also demonstrated during simulator scenarios. The E0P's are thus considered to be adequate. Adding this non-mandatory TBD information to pump bump steps would enhance the operators response.

This action is contrary to the SCM rule and operator training. Hence, to limit operator confusion, this action will not be incorporated in the E0P's. IF SCM exists and adequate core cooling can be provided by-one HPI pump, the operators have the option of reducing flow by closing injection nozzles or by. stopping one HPI pump. Since the-operators are trained in'the classroom and on the simulator to take these actions no additional guidance is necessary in the E0P.

- Refer to analysis of TBD III C.
. AFH should be used rather 2.5/3.4. The referenced E0P than MFH steps utilize AFH before MFH.
- RCP should be on . Difference #1
( DIFFERENCES:
- 1. Unlike the TBD, the E0Ps do not specifically address feeding a dry OTSG. However, whenever feed is being established to restore heat transfer, which would be the case with a dry OTSG, AFH is always used if available as per normal operating procedure A.6 Section 7.4 (Revision 26), Other sources (MFW, etc.) are used only if AFH is not available. Per'the TBD, analysis would be required before startup, but the E0Ps appropriately use MFH if needed to mitigate the accident as permitted by the TBD.
RCP operation when feeding a dry OTSG is not explicitly stated in the E0P's, although direction is normally given to start and maintain an RCP if SCM is available. Thus RCPs will most likely be running if possible when a dry OTSG is fed. Again, if a dry OTSG is fed without RCS flow an analysis will be required per the TBD. The TBD does not prohibit feeding a dry OTSG without forced flow. ( -~ IV.C-2 ; i

' DIFFERENCES:
- 1. E0P's do not provide guidance not to steam an OTSG once it has been ~
overfilled. Because this is desirable but not mandatory per TBD, this differer.:e is acceptable. Operator training, including i simulator scenarios, stress not feeding an overfilled OTSG. Action: . Include E0P guidance that a once overfilled OTSG should not be- ; steamed. l 1 Implementation: Post startup Justification: Post restart is acceptable for the reasons noted above
- 2. E0P's restore feedwater (restore' heat transfer) as soon as' practical by appropriate branching following the TBD Part III " Diagnosis and-Mitigation" guidelines but do not include the. specific desirable TBD guidance to do so before drying out the OTSGs. The primary concern is to control heat transfer rapidly which'is a main thrust of.the E0Ps.
The desirable action of not drying out.0TSG's is included in training, particularly simulator scenarios. The E0P's and training thus are acceptable with this difference. Action: \ Include E0P guidance to attempt to restore FH to OTSG's (as I applicable to the plant conditions) before dry out. Justification: Post restart is acceptable for the reason noted above.
- 3. E0P's do not include the TBD desirable guidance to batch feed the OTSG's with AFH pump starts if valve failures prevent AFH control.
The AFH system now includes two parallel paths of Class 1 control and , isolation valves in each flowpath to each of the OTSGs. All valves i can be remotely controlled from the control room. The probability I for batch feed is very small.. One of the redundant AFH pumps is driven by an electric motor and the other is driven by either a steam turbine supplied by main steam or an electric motor (dual driven). The motors have starting limitations that would prohibit their cycling for batch feeding. Only two starts in five hours or three starts in 24 hours are permitted per motor. Numerous batch feedings per hour would be required to remove heat while avoiding an overcooling transient. The steam driven turbine inlet valve'could be cycled from the control room but the valve stroking time is intentionally slow to prevent an overspeed trip. This would result in ragged control of feed flow and possible overcooling and overheating transients. Because of this and because this is a desirable but not mandatory TBD action in the E0Ps are acceptable as is. IV.C-4 I

DIFFERENCES: __
- l. E0P's do not explicitly include the options to isolate one SG for .
maintenance activities or if trickle feed is not controllable on both S/G's. Maintenance options are not included in E0P's because this is a management decision not related to gaining pignt control in emergencies. If trickle feeding both SG's does not. produce-controllable heat removal, excessive heat transfer will result:and the operator will cycle back to the start of. E.05.EOP will result in isolation of the overcooling.SG. The E0P's thus implement the intent of this TBD action and are acceptable as: written.

control in emergencies requiring pressure control such as HPI cooling.
. SGTR or natural circulation, overcooling avoidance of PTS, etc.; thus the EOPs generally specify use of the EMOV before the HPVs. ,
- 3. The EOPs do not require the OTSG with the tube leak to be solid prior to opening the HPVs because: . (1) it is difficult to determine when the OTSG is solid;- 2) early action to limit RCS pressure will limit OTSG overfill, thus reducing the chance of a solid water OTSG condition. .l 1

V.B-2 f
DISCUSSION: __ , 1. The Rancho Seco'EFIC MFH overfill setpoint has not yet been established. It is set at maximum on the, full range level (water at' upper tube sheet) until the setpoint is determined. All steps noted for the previous TBD Sections V.B.1 and V.B.2 are applicable to this TBD section because any instruction to the operator to" control SG level at a setpoint would accomplish controlling or stopping flow before the overfill setpoint is reached.
- 2. Rule 3 Steps 2.3.1 and 4 indicate it is desirable to (i.e., should) maintain AFH flow but TBD V.B.8 indicates a requirement (must be). .The TBD is inconsistent regarding if continuous AFH flow is always required. TBD IV.C.4.4.1 indicates that continuous- flow is desirable
("should"). The TBD Rule V. B.8 indicates continuous flow is manditory ("must"). The rule is intended to obtain optimum conditions for OTSG heat removal with AFH by maintaining the highest possible thermal. center. Core protection is not'an issue with respect to this' rule, thus it is apparent that the rule is desirable, not a requirement and TBD Section V.B.8 is incorrect stating "must."

-DESCRIPTION: y The: flowchart indicates that if there is an upset in heat tran'sfer at ' l any time above cold shutdown the operator.is.to' stabilizen the plant.by; first gaining reactivity control and secondary control. The TBD states '
that "...the applicable partsiof thel guidelines, if any,ishould f be. followed to correct the heat transfer conditions." The present EOPs 'j bypass the reactivity and secondary' inventory and pressure control' steps. of E.02 for heat transfer upsets'that ' occur: when .the reactor isi shutdown. EXPLANATION: Overcooling result in positive reactivity insertions. During the ' heatup/cooldown phase of plant operation ~the reactor is shutdown by t several percent. Only severe, prolonged overcooling can result in- . inadvertent criticality. . The RPS:high flux: trips are set'at.less than ~ - five: percent when the RCS:is below normal operating pressure.1This wil1J J" prevent large amounts of generated core heat. .One. rod group is normally withdrawn' during the heatup/cooldown mode, providing for instant l negative reactivity insertion if required; Furthermore.coperators would' take actions:to initiate high pressure injection from.the.BHST which will provide negative reactivity-for.the case of, severe overcooling. When the reactor is in 'startup mode, reactivity shutdown valu' es areL reduced so that an overcooling transient could result in.an~ inadvertent ~ 'l criticality. All- safety rods are withdrawn in' this-case. . Tripping the - ' ' reactor at the initiation' of a cooldown transient would prevent this Concern. Identification of an overfeed.or OTSC steam rupture during heatup/cooldown conditions is important..due to the potential of rapid-overcooling due to low core'. decay heat output. 0verheating conditions. are less of a. concern at these plant-conditions ~due.to the.added' time period for operation action but still require attention' . E.01sshould be revised such that the operator addresses al1~ steps ~of E.01 and E.02 should a heat transfer upset of loss of subcooling transient' occur-during heatup, cooldown, or hot. shutdown modes. This can be f accomplished by modifying the.last . step from E.01. (See action item.)

, 1 L < l
The E.02 step th'at checks.0TSG steam pressure controlling at 1000 psig ~~ will not be directly applicable in the heatup/cooldown mode. The check /" of steam pressure will provide the operator with an early indication of the magnitude of the overcooling and the affected OTSG(s). The. check involving feedwater flow will identify overfeeding transients. Operators are knowledgeable of the required feedwater flows, OTSG 1evels, and OTSG pressures expected for different points in the' cooldown or heatup phase of plant operation through their training and experience. No changes to these steps are required. Additional guidance will be provided in AP.23.06 which tells the operator to follow all steps of the E0Ps provided the actions do not exaggerate the unexpected transient of E.01 Step 3. ACTION: Revise the branching for upsets in heat transfer and losses of subcooling margin when the reactor is shutdown so that entry will occur at the beginning of E.02. This dan be accomplished by changing Step 3.0-of E.01 to read:
"If an unexpected transient occurs.within the Reactor shutdown, ItiEli Go to E.02 Step 1.0."
This will bring the E.01/E.02 flowchart into compliance with the TBD flowchart. IMPLEMENTATION: Pre Startup DIFFERENCE #2: DESCRIPTION The flowchart and TBD text do.not include the immediate actions of E.01. EXPLANATION: The immediate actions of E.01 are completed in the TBD within the respective subsystems. Reactivity control contains the step to trip the reactor. The turbine is tripped as part of the TBD step to control OTSG pressure. Letdown is reduced to aid in the control of primary system inventory due to the expected cooldown and contraction of the RCS following a reactor trip. The manual reactor and turbine trip are
~
backup actions for conditions that should have automatically occurred. i FC III.A
m DIFFERENCE'#3:. .. [ DESCRIPTION: The-flowchart requires that at the conclusion of treating a heat' transfer upset symptom that the. operator determines if a SGTR exists. The' EOPs do not always have a specific step to check for a SGTR in every case ncr do they branch back to E.02 as the TBD flowchart indicates. . EXPLANATION:- Heat transfer upsets take ~ priority over a SGTR. ~ When the' heat. transfer upset is arrested and the plant is stable, the lower priority symptoms are treated (cer TBD and AP.23.06). If the specific E0P or CP checked for SGTR, the operator would branch-to E.06. If not, the E0P entry conditions would be used to enter E.06 after heat.'ransfer was stabilized (refer to AP.23.06). s. r FC III.A

The analogous > step in the EOP initiates HPI flow. The TBD step appears to encompass more operator j actions than the E.03 step. The details of each step must be compared. ] EXPLANATION: . TBD control of RCS inventory contains two substeps: maximize HPI flow f and isolate possible leaks. E.03 initiates HPI and references E0P Rules. ] l and 2. The manual initiation of HPI using the SFAS _ digital channel . i l initiate pushbuttons starts the HPI pumps and opens the HPI injection { valves to a prethrottled position. Reference to Rule 1 will have the , i operator maximize HPI flow. Also refer to III.B.2.3/3.2. E.03 isolates possible leaks after.a check for excessive heat transfer. > The TBD isolates possible leaks before a check for exces'sive heat transfer. This deviation is explained on an alternate page in this section. (Difference 5) , 1 DIFFERENCE #2: DESCRIPTION: ; It is not clear that TBD Step 2.4 accomplishes the same actions as E.03 Step 3.0. EXPLANATION: i OTSG levels are increased to the ECCS setpoint when SCM is lost. Auxiliary feedwater (EFIC) is the preferred feedwater flow path (TBD IV.C.3.3). The verification of EFIC in Step 3.0 of E.03 is in agreement l with the TBD. E.03 Step 3.0 references Rule 4 which defines the proper OTSG level setpoint for different plant conditions.

DIFFERENCE #4: DESCRIPTION:' E.03' checks for excessive heat transfer at1this point!.'.The TBD flowchart appears to _have no similar. check.
. EXPLANATION::
Included in-the text of TBD block 2.4 is the statement "SG 1evels:must-be~ controlled at the loss of SCM setpoint Lin each SG that can hold pressurt." An OTSG with a steam leak resulting in an overcooling will; be identified in:the E.03 step and.either< isolated or the steam
~
generator will be dried out(in-E.05. Thus,Jthe.E.03 check' accomplishes the same intent as an earlier.TBD step.. , DIFFERENCE #5:- DESCRIPTION: The E.03 sequencing 'of the _ treatment of excessive. heat. transfer actions' and the isolation of leaks diverges from the;TBD.E The TBD. includes the isolation of leaks in the " Control RCS Inventory" block. The TBD: isolates leaks prior to checking for excessive. heat transfer. The E0Ps follow the ATOG sequencing. ACTION: Reverse Steps 5.0 and 6.0 in E.03 so that isolation of possible RCS leaks' occurs before actions to check for excessive heat transfer. Reversing these steps will bring E.iO3 in line with the-TBD action.. IMPLEMENTATION: Pre Startup. FC III.B

, DIFFERENCE #6: , ('- DESCRIPTION: The E03 flowchart contains a-' decision ~ block- that transfers back to the-beginning of E.03 if subcooling margin is regained but subsequently lost. This step'does not appear on<the TBD flowchart. EXPLANATION:- This step is not explicitly. stated in the TBD. However, the'TBD and ATOG philosophy is based on the priority of- symptoms with loss of SCM. being the highest. Refer to TBD paragraph III'.A;3.3. DIFFERENCE #7: DESCRIPTION: The E0P decision point of'CFTs emptying does not. exist in the TBD'- flowchart. ' EXPLANATION: Core flood tanks will' discharge during large break LOCAs and' prolonged? overcooling. For the case of large LOCAs, the TBD and the E0Ps will. accomplish the same' actions although the pathway and questions asked differ slightly.a The TBD asks if heat transfer to the OTSGs exists. In'
.this case, it would.not as the OTSGs would'be heat sources. RCS /. pressure and RCS cooldown would be on break /HPI-CFT flow.- The operator following E.03 would conclude excessive heat transfer.did not., exist as .j the OTSGs would uncouple-from the RCS. CFTs would be seen emptying;so i the branch to CP.101~would be made.- CP.101 addresses cooldown on break /HPI-CFT flow for large LOCAs.
DIFFERENCE #8: DESCRIPTION. 4 It is not apparent that TBD Step 2.10 is equivalent'to E.03 Step 10.0. The check for OTSG heat transfer follows the check for core cooling down on HPI only in E.03 and precedes'it in the TBD flowchart. EXPLANATION: Although the TBD and E0P flow charts appear to differ, the only actual i disparity is the placement of the check for.0TSG heat transfer. The TBD checks for the existence Lof 0TSG heat transfer first and if.there is ' none, a check is made to see if OTSG heat transfer is required. .E.03 first checks if OTSG heat. transfer is required and if it is, then checks for its existence. The two flowcharts produce the same end results, j D FC III.B

.However, when SPOS is not available, the TB0 : initiation check for- heat ;
transfer in one or both OTSGs.will slow the. operator's' response. 0TSG
~ Tsat is 'not immediately available .and the relationship' of> Tsat to RCS cold and OTSG AT cannot be easily made. The operator need not be' .butdened with this check if CFT or,HPI'flowiis sufficient to provide core cooling. The E0P sequencing streamlines the procedure and-places the operator in the appropriate cooldown procedure as .quickly as possible. j 4
The E0P blocks that check if'the CFTs discharge or cooldown rate exceeds ' I 100*/hr meet the intent of'the TBD. block 2.10. Large and' medium sized LOCAs will- cool the RCS by HPI flow or a combination of HPI and.CFT j flow. The RCS will rapidly cool.to_ lower than OTSG saturation j pressure. RCS pressure will decrease below OTSG pressure because the j RCS is also saturated. For these cases, both the TBD and E.03.a110w the- d C RCS to cool on break /HPI flow.

]
DIFFERENCE #12: I DESCRIPTION: The TBD has a general action statement following the restoration of subcooling margin. The E.03 procedure is more detailed in this area. The TBD text must be reviewed for any TBD-EOP differences in this area. 1 EXPLANATION: Closure of ADVs and TBVs is not discussed in the TBD. They are closed to prevent a rapid cooldown for the case where hot leg voids have blocked natural circulation. OTSG boiler-condenser heat transfer has been attempted, and RCPs are available. Starting an RCP will collapse the voids and OTSG heat transfer is assured. The E0Ps start one RCP per loop but.the TBD starts only one RCP if OTSG l heat transfer cannot be established. [ NOTE: . The E.03. flowchart conflicts with the E.03 procedure on the number of RCPs to be started.] The EOPs assume feedwater is available and the OTSGs can be made a heat sink. The TBD action addresses the more general case. Only one RCP should be run if OTSG heat transfer is not available to reduce the heat , input into the RCS. This instruction is familiar to the operators and i is included in E.04 Step 5 and E.05 Step 22. E.03 should be revised to . account for all possible plant conditions if subcooling margin is regained. ACTION: Revise E.03 Step 16 to start only one RCP if feedwater to the OTSGs is not available. Revise the E.03 flowchart to reflect the E.03 procedure. FC D I.B

COMPARISON OF TBD AND EOP FLOHCHARTS TBD Fiaure III.C-1 and E.04 Loss of Heat Transfer , DIFFERENCE #1: DESCRIPTION: The TBD requires HPI cooling'be initiated in two cases:. .
- 1) The.RCS is saturated, feedwater is available, the RCPs'are not available, the transfer is not~ established after. making the OTSG a heat sink.
- 2) Before RCS pressure. reaches the EMOV setpoint, the RV P-T limit, or ;
the PTS limit if feedwater is not available. - For the first case the TBD waits 'for the RCS to become saturated before initiating HPI cooling. E.04 waits until RCS pressure reaches the EH0V setpoint of 2450 psig. The criteria for the second case are identical in the TBD and E0P. EXPLANATION: The EOP step is the same or more. conservative than the TBD. For a scenario where feedwater is available, the RCS is subcooled and hot leg voids block natural circulation, the RCS will heatup and expand. RCS pressure will increase to the EMOV setpoint. 'At this point the E0P instructs tha operator to commence HPI cooling. Assuming the RCS starts ; at expected post trip values under natural circulation conditions, the 4 EMOV will lift when core temperatures are less than 600 degrees and the RCS still subcooled. If the initiation of HPI. cooling were delayed j until saturation conditions occurred in the RCS, core outlet ! temperatures would be 665 degrees.. ] l If the RCS were saturated the attainment of the 2450 psig pressure may ; take longer with the' resultant RCS temperatures exceeding 600 degrees. However, the temperature would not exceed the 665 degree saturation temperature.- For this scenario the E0P actions are either conservative or the same as the TBD. l 1 l e i FC III.C l 1
-. )
i DIFFERENCE #1:' '(Continued) _] Other conditions in the TBD requirements'for HPI cooling initiation-will delay HPI core cooling.later than done by the EOPs. .If.the.RCS .is , j saturated and RCPs-are operable but. bumping them does_not restore . ~! I
, primary to secondary heat transfer, the TBD never does establish HPI- . cooling. Similarly, a literal interpretation of tWel requirement to have' steam generator levels raised,to the loss of.SCM setpoint would. prevent the initiation of HPI cooling if levels.were still' approaching the ECCS' setpoint. Although maximum HPI flow will. be initiated in both these cases the EMOV will not be opened.. (It.may open at its setpoint and-cycle). RCS pressure will remain high and reduce the-amount of HPI flow that could reach-.the core.
If the RCS is saturated, maximum HPI will already be' established'by E.03 and Rules 1.and 2.,> Core cooling is assumed with only one.HPI' pump and- 1 the EMOV is closed per TBD III.C.3.3. .It may be possible for the RCS~to .; the saturation line..

IMPLEMF.NTATION: Pos.t Startup JUSTIFICATION: HPI is already at maximum allowa'bl'e flow since the RCS is' at-saturated d ' conditions.

- u lt
DIFFERENCE #2: _ DESCRIPTION: The TE,0 continually branches back to the check for HPI cooling required if feedwater is not available. E.04 does not hacie.this branch. EXPLANATION: E.04 bases the requirement for HPI cooling on one parameter, the EMOV ; setpoint. E.04 Step 2.0 states that anytime pressure reaches 2450 psig i prior to the restoration of heat transfer the HPI cooling must be J initiated. Therefore the E0P branch that corresponds to the TBD branch l is implied. l This part of the E0P flowchart also appears to differ from the TBD in that the TBD waits for the 2450 psig sotpoint to be reached before initiating HPI tooling for cases where feedwater flow has not been f established. But both the TBD text and the interpretation and training on E.04 allcw the operator to initiate HPI cooling if feedwater flow . reestablishment appears to be not possible. l l l Both the TBD and EOP allow the flexibility of attempting to restore j l feedwater without immediately initiating HPI cooling until RCS pressure l The TBD accomplishes this by repeated cycling l reaches 2450 psig. through the "HPI required" determination while the E0Ps allow the operators to continue with the steps of attempting to establish i feedwater up to the point that HPI is required before pressure reaches i 2450 psig. The E0Ps branch directly to the " initiate HPI" if feedwater l flow does not exist and pressure reaches 2450 psig. In the E0Ps the i requirement to initiate HPI before 2450 psig is emphasized via Rule .1 thus the need to initihte HPI is constantly monitored by the operators during the feedwater restoration steps. DIFFERENCE #3: l DESCRIPTION: l It is not evident that the E0Ps follow the TBD because the E0P flowchart is more detailed in this area. EXPLANATION: E.04 Step 7 levels are maintained according to plant conditions. These level setpoints are in agreement with the TBD Section IV.C. E.04 Step 10 decides whether RCPs are operable and then perform the actions.of Steps 11 or 12. These steps correspond to TBD Section 2.7. The actions in the E0P steps are in agreement with the TBD.

The branch 'for CFTs emptying does not exist in'the TBD. i EXPLANATION: This decision ~ point applies to the case where a large LOCA would exist coincident with a loss of heat transfer. The steps following this I! branch attempt to reestablish heat transfer with RCP pump bumps and by l lowering OTSG pressure. These steps .would be improper if'a large break ] LOCA occurred because the combination of CFT and HPI flow is sufficient J to cool the core. E.04 Step 8 directs the operator to CP.101 (LOCA with-CFT Emptying which contains actions more appropriate to a LOCA condition. DIFFERENCE #5: DESCRIPTION: )

. Excessive heat, trans'fer in tho' E0Ps'is ' defines as = TC decreasing out of the: post trip window and OTSG~ pressure < 960 psig'or Tsat < 540*F. It is not dependent on the cooldown rate. The TBD states "The most. ,

' Additionally the TBD refers to tripping of the. MFW and AFH pumps only when the OTSGs are in danger.of being overfilled.~ ACTION: ( Excessive heat transfer is a dynamic situation and should be described in terms of cooldown rate with respect to Tc. -(e.g. Cooldown rate >- 100*F/HR and Tc below 525'F) This would also better define' excessive heat transfer when'.the plant is in the heat-up/cooldown mode and Tc is below 525*F.

l DIFFERENCE #5: _ J DESCRIPTION- 1 Verifying stable plant conditions when both steam generators are f operable is more detailed in E.05 than the TBD. , j EXPLANATION: f I Verifying stable plant conditions is described in the TBD as monitoring l for upsets in heat transfer, particularly. loss of subcooled margin. The TBD also emphasizes the need to monitor for a steam generator tube rupture (SGTR). These two items are incorporated in E.05 in Steps 9'and
- 11. Steps 8 and'10 of E.05 are necessary since E.05 may have been' .
i entered from E.03 " Loss of Subcooled Margin," which directs tripping the RCPs and initiating HPI. Objective 1.1.2 of the TBD discusses the need for'the operator to terminate the overcooling transient as quickly as possible to minimize the potential for exceeding PTS limits. If PTS limits are exceeded, it is necessary for the operator to stabilize RCS temperature and pressure. Monitoring for PTS and performing the functions necessary if PTS limits have been exceeded is accomplished.in Step 12 of E.05. DIFFERENCE #6* i DESCRIPTION: (s Step 14 of E.05 is not included in the TBD. EXPLANATION: This is on informational step intended to ensure the operator remains in E.05, and does not proceed to E.04 " Loss of Heat Transfer", after heat transfer is lost. in the OTSG that is allowed to boil dry. DIFFERENCE #7: DESCRIPTION: Step 2.7 of the TBD reestablishes heat transfer _to one or both OTSGs. Step 15 of E.05 reestablishes heat transfer to only one OTSG. EXPLANATION: I Step 15 of E.05 and Step 2.7 of the TBD are essentially the same. Step i 6 of E.05 determined that only one OTSG was operable for'this scenario. { l i i l D FC III.0 1 4

The TBD states HPI' cooling should be initiated when feedwater. is not-available (at this point in:the scenario it has not been reestablished) and the EMOV setpoint is.. reached in Section'III.C.2.2. Step 23, E.05. ensures the steam breaks'are outside the reactor building, ; before trickle feeding both OTSGs. Step 24, E.05, attempts to establish forced circulation in the RCS before trickle feeding.the OTSGs'in order to provide a more controlled .; method of heat transfer. ' This is advantageous since forced circulation ; with feedwater available guarantees heat removal from the RCS with
-immediate feedback to the operator.

DIFFERENCE #10: __ DESCRIPTION: Step 2.8 of the TBD directs trickle feeding one or both OTSGs or HPI cooling. Step 25 of E.05 reestablishes heat transf,er to both OTSGs by trickle feeding. E(PLANATION: Step 2.8 of the TBD and Step 25 of E.05 both accomplish the same function. For this scenario E.05 has determined that the breaks are outside the reactor building and it is possible to trickle feed both OTSGs. DIFFERENCE #11: DESCRIPTION: Step 2.9 of the TE" ershasizes the need for the operators to monitor for a loss of subcooleo sargin. This step is not included in E.05 for this scenario. EXPLANATION: Section III.O.29 states that "A prolonged overcooling can result in a loss of subcooled margin, in which the operator would have to take actions". ACTION: Include a step for the operators to monitor for adequate subcooling margin prior to Step 31. IMPLEMENTATION: l Prior To Restart DIFFERENCE #12: DESCRIPTION: Verifying stable plant conditions when trickle feeding both OTSGs is , more detailed in E.05 than in the TBD-. l EXPLANATION: Step 2.9 of the TBD emphasizes the need for the operator to monitor for adequate subcooled margin and SGTRs. SGTRs are monitored for in Step 31 of E.05. However, monitoring for a loss of subcooled margin is not incorporated in the final steps for this scenario in E.05. (See Difference 11.) FC III.D
DIFFERENCE #12: (Continued) _ Steps 29 and 30 of E.05 provide a means of allowing the operator to loop i back to the appropriate sections of E.05 in the event one or both steam .i generators are regained. Step 27 of E.05 directs the operator to i determine if PTS limits have been exceeded. The reason for this is I stated in Difference 5. Securing from HPI cooling"(Step 26) would be ] necessary if HPI cooling was initiated in Step 22. E.05. DIFFERENCE #13: . DESCRIPTION: l E.05 has five additional steps (22, 23, 33, 34 and 36) from the point when neither OTSG is determined to be operable to when trickle feeding I
.is established to one OTSG.
d EXPLANATION- , i Step 22. E.05, is explained in De'scription 9. Step 23. E.05, determines { that at least one of the steam leaks is inside the reactor building, therefore, it is necessary to start RB cooling (Step 33, E.05) to limit , the increase in pressure, temperature'and humidity of the reactor J building to minimize equipment damage. Step 34, E.05, determines if one OTSG has a steam leak outside the reactor building that could be used for heat removal via trickle feeding. Step 36 E.05, attempts to establish forced circulation in the RCS before trickle feeding the OTSGs I 7 in order to provide a more controlled method of heat transfer. This is i advantageous since forced circulation with feedwater available j guarantees heat removal from the RCS with immediate feedback to the operator. DIFFERENCE #13: i DESCRIPTION: Step 2.8 of the TBD establishes trickle feeding to one or both OTSGs or i HPI cooling. Step 37 of E.05 establishes trickle feeding only to one OTSG. l i EXPLANATION: Steps 2.8 of the TBD and Step 37 of E.05 accomplish the same function i for this scenario. The TBD states that a steam generator with a steam line break inside the reactor building should not be trickle fed if the steam release to the reactor building is determined to be inappropriate. Step 37, E.05, establishes heat transfer only to the OTSG with the steam leak outside the reactor building. l FC III.D

DIFFERENCE #16:- DESCRIPTION:' Step 2.8 of the TBD establishes trickle feeding t'o one or both_0TSGsior- R HPI cooling. A similar step is not included in E.05 for this: scenario.
' EXPLANATION:
f Step 22, E.05, initiates HPI cooling only if RCS pressure increases lto the EMOV setpoint. Step 23 and 34, E.C5. together determine that both steam breaks are inside the reactor building. . Step 33, E.05, initiates the-four reactor building emergency coolers to minimize the ' degradation of the reactor building environment caused by the' steam leak.. E.05 is inadeauate in that it does not~ direct the operator to initiate
~
1 HPI cooling once it has been verified that both steam breaks are inside l the reactor building. There is nothing to-be gained inl waiting for the RPS to heat up and pressurize to the EMOV setpoint before HPI cooling'is l initiated in this case. The current procedure could have the operators enter CP.104 before HPI' cooling was initiated,, resulting in the operators opening the EMOV. before starting HPI pumps ano leading to a ;
-loss of subcooling margin condition.
ACTION: Insert a step.to initiate HPI cooling before Step 35. IMPLEMENTATION: Prior to Startup q FCII.D -D
DIFFERENCE #17: __ r DESCRIPTION: Verifying stable plant conditions is not incorporated into E.05 for.the scenario that leaves HPI cooling as the only means for removing decay heat. EXPLANATION: Step 2.9 of the TBD emphasizes the need to monitor for loss of SCM and steam generator tube rupture. At this point, both steam gener.ators are isolated with steam breaks inside the reactor building. An actual SGTR would be treated as a LOCA. HPI flow would be controlled to compensate for leakage'through the tube rupture. E.05 directs the~ operators to CP.104'where subcooling margin is monitored. 1 J FC III.D

DIFFERENCE #2: . DESCRIPTION: TBD Step 2'2.1 is designed for continuous' surveillance by looping the-TBD flowchart back to this step until plant conditions, allow DHR-operation. The aspect of continuous surveillance is addressed in E.06' by Step 8.1. The action of E.06 Step 8.0! satisfy the requirements of:TBD ' Steps 2.2'.1 (- and 2.2.2 regarding evaluating' for adequate SCM and if necessary initiating corrective actions if adequate SCM doesn't exist. Additionally, the heirarchy of the EDPs requires a loss of SCM to be addressed.before any lesser priority symptom thus, even if E.06 didn't! specifically state to evaluate SCM,,it would be understood by licensed Operators that this-is necessary. Once the required actions are -taken-for a loss of SCM, the operator is directed to attend to the next higher priority symptom, which for this case is a SGTR. This direction is provided in E.03, Loss of Subcooling, Step 21.0. TBD Section III.E.2.2.2, Loss of Adequate Subcooling Margin, contains a provision that would allow the. operator to not raise level to the -loss of SCM setpoint directly if two HPI pumps are at full flow so'as not to cause inventory control problems in the affected OTSG. - This provision , is optional and is not addressed " 06 because specific guidelines for OTSG level control, AFW flowra' and HPI requirements are set forth as a consideration of ensuring adequate core cooling is provided for- the entire. spectrum of break sizes rather than a consideration of OTSG inventory control.

E.06 is structured in a similar fashion, however, it considers RV head and RCS loop voids first since if there is 'a problem in either of these areas it should receive prompt attention. :Once the
'RCS is determined to be free of RV head and RCS loop voids,.a pressurizer. bubble can be formed, if necessary. The operator is- ,
directed to plant procedure 8.4 for continuation of cooldown if at least-one OTSG is operable. by. E.06, Step'23.0 within B.4 direction is-pressurized for drawing a pressurizer bubble following a~ circumstance that. fills the pressurizer solid. DIFFERENCE #13: DESCRIPTION: TBD Step 2.5.9 has the operator take actions to enhance idle loop and RV, head cooling so as not to form a void in either of these areas during a natural circulation cooldown. TBD Step 2.5.10 directs actions be taken to mitigate loop and RV head voids should they form.

For RV head void prevention'on plants 1not. equipped'with head vents, such as Rancho Seco. .there is essentially,only one method ( , available; limit cooldown rate. Because a'RV head" void.is only of: j concern during a; natural: circulation cooldown,. the rolated' precautionary ~ .: measures are continued.in the.. appropriate procedure, 8.4. Section 6.0.1 .I Natural Circulation Cooling. . E.06 $tep 23.0; directs the operator;to'
'D this' procedure if OTSG cooling is: being utilized..
d The aspect of idle loop voiding is:addresssd in L.06 at the on'-set.of j OTSG isolation since it is' from this pointLidle kop voiding becomes a -1 concern. TED SectioriIII'G.3.8.1 provides specific recommendations for -
~
idle loop; void prevention. . These recommendations' are reflected in E.06, <> Step 16.0. Should a.RV head. void or RCS loop. void form the TBD provides guidance on >j mitigating their effects :(TBD Sections III.G.3.T and'III.G.3.8).. E.06, i Step 21.0 provides.. direction for minimizing the affects of a head- ) bubble. Again, since Rancho Seco has.no RV head, vent the methods. j! available are somewhat limtted. The-'TBD recommendations for. limiting. : cooldown. rate to within E0*F/HR. while depressurizing with the EMOV are; implemented in E.06 Step 21.0. }! E.06, Step 22.0 addresses corrective actions in the event.an RCS loop void forms. The actions for RCP pump bump and/or hot leg venting are in agreement with those. recommended by TBD Section III.G.3.8.2, Idle Loop , Void Recognition and Elimination. i QlEEERENCE #14: DESCRIPTION: The end point for a SGTR situation in the TBD is to establish. conditions required for DHR operation-and place the-plant on DHR.- Until DHR conditions are established the TB0 flowchart remains in a continuous loop so as to take advantage of any improvement in plant conditions.that. would allow a more normal ' plant cooldown process. 'The DHR transition may have to be made from either OTSG cooling or HPI. cooling. E.06, Step 23.0 provides for the DHR trans) tion through the natural 1 circulation procedurt in B.4 if OTSG cooling is in effect the operator. ] is directed to CP.104 Transient Termination Following an.

Jis i COMPARISON OF TBD'AND'EOPF 'LOHCHARTS TBD Fiaure'III.F-2 and E.07 Inadeauate Core Coolina , DIFFERENCE #1: DESCRIPTION: Step 2.2 of the'TBD requires the initiation of HPI', LPI and verify CFT. isolation valve status. : Step 1 of- E.07-initiates HPI and LPI. but does" not verify the.CFT valve-status. EXPLANATION:'
- The. TBD gives direction to verify .CFT 'statusfinnediately after- '
attempting to establish OTSG heat. transfer. The.CFT discharge valves are required to be open to during operation. - Postponing the CFT ' verification in the EOPs allows:the operators .to take actions to establish heat transfer sooner and it places verification!of CFT level' decreases at a' point where the CFTs.are more likely to be discharging into the core. DIFFERENCE #2:
' DESCRIPTION:
E.07 Steps 2 and 3 are more detailed than Step 2.3 of therTBD. EXPLANATION: TBD actions for Step 2.3 include ' raising OTSG . levels as high as possible in the-0TSG and lowering OTSG pressure untili secondary Tsat is about 100* below primary Tsat. The E0P steps similarly raise OTSG 1evel to-381" and lower OTSG pressure to decrease Tsat 90*-110' below RCS Tsat. DIFFERENCE #3: DESCRIPTION: Step 6 of E.07 directs the operator to' establish manual AFH control. This step is not included in the TBD.. EXPLANATION: Manual control of AFH is. required to prevent EFIC from automatically lowering and controlling OTSG 1evels at 27.5" when one RCP per loop is. started in the following step: FC III.F x - _ _ _ _ _ - - _ _ __ -
a:
\' _
DIFFERENCE #4:- _
- DESCRIPTION:
Step 2.5 of the TBD takes action to open the'High Point Vents (HPVs).' Step 2.6'of the TBD takes action to depressurize the OTSG to achieve a 1 100*F delta T between secondary Tsat and primary .Tsat. E.07 requires the operators to first depressurize the OTSGs and then'open the HPVs in Steps 8 and 9 respectively. EXPLANATION:- This difference is of.no consequence since no new actions are"taken in Step 8, E.07, that were not already taken in . Steps 2 and 3:of E.07a DIFFERENCE #5:- DESCRIPTION: The.TBD and E.07 differ diagrammatically at this point. Additionally, Step 11 of E.07 has the operator remain in the present mode until saturated conditions are established in the RCS. _This step does not' appear in the TBD. EXPLANATION: Step 2.7 of the TBD decides if. primary to secondary heat transfer' has -
.. been established. If the primary to secondary. heat transfer has been established the plant should establish a saturated cooldown mode'with the steam generator. .If not the-TB0 states it will be_necessary to continue with HPI cooling. . The TBD is in error at this point since.true, HPI cooling (HPI initiated with' flow;through the EMOV) isinot in progress and the TBD does not. recommend opening the EMOV until'the'RCS has reached Region 4. Additionally Step 2.7 requires the ~ operator to. ;
continually monitor for conditions worsening such that thelRCS enters i Region 4. i Once in Region 3 one of two conditions must occur. Conditions will- 'i either worsen such that:the RCS enters Region 4, or'the HPI will refill-. ; the RCS and saturated conditions will be' reestablished. Step 10 E.07, j has the operator' continually monitor RCS parameters for entry into- l Region 4 and directs- the operator to _ Step 14 if this occurs. Otherwise, 1 Step ll,'E.07, directs the operators to-continue in the present mode -j (HPI at maximum flow and high' point vents open) until the- RCS~ returns to - 1 saturated conditions. Once saturated conditions have been established. Step 12 E.07,' determines if primary to secondary heat transfer exists.: i If so, Step 13. E.07, has the operator maintain RCS pressure 25-50.psig
> OTSG pressure in an effort to regain subcooled margin. Once subcooled margin exists or RCS decreases 'to 140 psig, the operator is-directed to ;
CP.103. If primary to secondary heat transfer cannot be established the ; operator is directed to CP.104 that initiates a'cooldown using HPI ; cooling. D FC III.F i
o. DIFFERENCE #6 - DESCRIPTION: l As part of the actions in Step 2.8 of thejTBD.the-operator is' directed
.to open the HPVs and the EMOV. Step 2.9;of the-TBD directs'the operator to further depressurize the OTSGs. .The steps are.p'erformed in reverse order in E.07. by steps 15'and116.
EXPLANATION: The TBD states in Section III.F.3.5, "TheiRCS should be depres.surized as; quickly as possible to achieve CF and LPIL cooling. To achieve quick RCS: depressurization, the operating SG(s) should be depressurized as quickly and as far asipossible." Later, the TBD states :"All possible RCS' valves should be opened if not already opened." The intent of the TBD: is therefore met. DIFFERENCE #7: DESCRIPTION: Step 2.10 of the TBD requires.the operator continue with the actions ofJ 2.8 and 2.9 until saturated condition exist, then proceeds to establishing long term cooling.: ' Step 17, .E.07 differs -from Step R2.10 of the TBD by the fcilowing: 1) It directs the operator to decrease running RCPs to'one in each loop. 2).It directs.the operator.to-
- continue with the procedure whether or not'the RCS is saturated.
EXPLANATION: l Securing one RCP per loop is advisable;in order to minimize the damage 1 to the RCP and the heat rejected to the RCS. . It.is necessary for the operator to continue with E.07 to take actions that will be needed to 1 support long tens cooling. :The actions .taken in the following steps l will not alter the present mode of cooling. ! DIFFERENCE #8: DESCRIPTION: i E.07 provides greater detail in establishing long term cooling than does.' the TBO. , EXPLANATION: Continue long term cooling, Step 2.11 of the TBD, is' described as transferring LPI suction to the Reactor Building sump and lining up the , Decay Heat Removal System if possible. It a' Iso warns of the' possibility! 4
~
of exceptionally high radiation levels which may be present in the . Reactor Building and suggests- that. appropriate. radiation precautions be- ' invoked. E.07 will establish either LPL cooling or LPI-HPI piggyback cooling, depending upon LPI. flow conditions and .the BHST level. If LPI , cooling is providing adequate core. cooling.(LPI flow greater than FC III.F I I s' .
- .i DIFFERENCE #8:- (Continued) 1000:gpm for greater than 20 minutes) then St'ep 19.has.the' operator ,1 secure HPI cooling and core flood tanks. This mode'of. cooling is J i
continued until the BHST lo-lo level is reached at which time Stcp 20 transfers.LPI suction to the Reactor Building sump and Step 21 secures j the remaining RCPs. ;
-For conditions where the lo-lo level.in the BHST is reached before.LPIi ,
cooling has been determined to be; adequate. Step 19 directs the operator = to a cooldown mode via LPI-HPI piggyback cooling. Step 23 aligns,the j systems for piggyback operation.

TBD TO E0P COMPARISON 0 (0_0LDOWN PROCDURES The SMUD E0P Cooldown Procedures (CP's) have not been revised to implement the TBD. The CP's originated from the ATOG cooldown procedures. The ATOG CP's have been modified to be correct for the present plant configuration. The attached studies have been completed to verify the bases of the E0P CP's. First, exit conditions for all the E0P's were compared to the entrance conditions of each CP. This verifies that there is a smocth and accurate transition between the E0P's (based on the TBD) and the CP's (based on ATOG). All E0P exit points reference an appropriate cooldown procedure. Second, each E0P CP was compared to its corresponding AT0G CP. For each CP the steps that do not correspond between the E0P's and AT0G were circled and numbered. The differences were then dicussed. The differences found were either implementations of the TBD or are enhancements of ATOG made to provide further clarification or improved plant operation.

'ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON' (C - )
CP.101 i DIFFERENCE 1 - ATOG step 1.2- - l i This step is not included in the 'EOP's. CP.101 is in affect only.if a large LOCA l has occurred. The rate of depletion of the BWST for a'large break.LOCA would greatly exceed the rate of makeup to the BWST that could be achieved. In this case..it-will be necessary to establish recirculation from the R.B. sump as the BWSTsis' .) depleted. Direction to makeup to the BWSt is given.in the Annunicator Procedure;for the.BWST' low level alarm. It' directs the operator to makeup to the BWST' upon the permission i of the Shift Supervisor or Assisant Shift Supervisor. Because the additional borated water that could be made up would not be significant relative to that being injected, this step'was.omitted from the E0P's. Although it requires establishment of a - R.B. recire flowpath sooner it also allows the operators' to deal with the LOCA . and makeup to the BWST with normal operating procedures when' time permits. DIFFERENCE 2 - E0P steps 1.1 and 1.2: These steps do not exist in AT0GLs They were added to the E0P's to' instruct the operators to leave the CBS and emergency coolers running following a LOCA in order to reduce.the iodine levels of the R.B> and to thus limit offsite releases. This step requires no additional operator action. Therefore, its affect is an enhancement 6 over the AT0G procedure. 4 DIFFERENCE 3 - E0P step 2.0: Determining if a CFT line break has occurred and taking actions to secure LPI flow to that' loop if a break is observed is not addressed in ATOG.- Adequate core cooling will occur with a CFT line break if LPI flow is available to both injection nozzles (reference TBD IV.8). ACTION: The steps, which check for CFT line breaks, will be removed from CP.101 and replaced with instructions to ensure LPI is available to both injection nozzles. IMPLEMENTATION: 1 Pre-startup. 1 DIFFERENCE 4 - E0P step 3.0: Isolating the CFT's 1s not performed in the ATOG CP.101. This step is included-in the E0P's as a TBD enhancement over the ATOG procedure. TBD IV.B section 5.1 i recommends that the CFT's isolation valves should be closed so that the CFT's do not interfere with RCS depressurization by introducing nitrogen into the RCS. ! In addition, the TBD uses the criteria of LPI > 1,000 gpm in each line to isolate the CFT's (reference TBD IV.B.5.1). , CP-4' m% __--m___-a___.______ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , _ - _

The { operator should be directed to step 3. Step 2, "CFT's emptying go to CP.101", , i would create a branching loop and would not allow the operators to go to step 3 j where the steps for RCS cooldown begin. The E0P clarification resolves this branching , discrepancy and therefore is an improvement over the AT0G procedure. ' DIFFERENCE 6 - ATOG step 4.0. E0P steps 6.0 and 7.0: The placement of the steps to terminate HPI flow if adequate LPI cooling exists differs between ATOG and the E0P's. The E0P's were revised and incorporate this step earlier in the procedure to allow termination of HPI, prior to establishing piggy-back mode cooling, if LPI flow is adequate. The AT0G progression, however, directed the operator to establish piggy-back cooling prior to determining if HPI was still necessary. The E0P, order potentially saves operator time and burden in the event that LPI flow is adequate and HPI piggy-back cooling is not required. (TBD IV.B.2.A.5.2 allows HPI termination if LPI flow > 1,000 gpm per loop for
> 20 minutes).
DIFFERENCE 7 - E0P step 8.1: f This step does not appear in ATOG. The E0P's were revised to include this step to prevent suctions from being switched due to a BWST level transmitter failure. This is consistent with the TBD direction to check for othe % ources of water loss upon receipt of BWST low low alarm. Reference TBD IV.F 3.5. Checking sump instrumen-tation ensures there will be a water source when suction is switched from the BWST to the sump. DIFFERENCE 8 - E0P step 8.2: l The E0P's were revised to include this step; this additional verification to check HPI suction does check HPI suction does not appear in AT0G. This is a precautionary measure to address the scenario of piggy-back mode. This step ensures suction will be provided to the HPI pumps when the BWST is isolated. l DIFFERENCE 9 - E0P note preceeding step 9: i This note is additional precautionary information to ensure consideration of HPI {
, pumps if a piggy-back mode cooling exists. It is an enhancement of the ATOG procedure. !

L ] a 1 i ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON j CP.101 { DIFFERENCE 10 - ATOG step 4.4, E0P step 9: ATOG references a limit on LPI flow of 3,750 gpm, while the E0P limits LPI flow l to 3,000 gpm. The LPI limit of 3,750 gpm is the maximum flow that is allowed to l each DHR cooler. LPI pump runout occurs at 3,000 gpm when suction is being taken from the R.B. sump (reference A.8 L&P's 3.10.6 and 3.12.2). The E0P limit considers LPI pump. runout and cooler operation. It is therefore more conservative than AT0G. i DIFFERENCE 11 - ATOG step 4.1: I Direction to restore normal seal injection is not included in the E0P's. Requiring j normal MU to establish RCS seal injection is an operator burden that could result i in operator attention being distracted from more significant matters. At this stage in CP.101 it is likely that the BWST is depleted or will soon be depleted. This would require the operators to take suction from the makeup tank for seal injection. In addition, because there is no letdown available the operators will be required to continually makeup to the makeup tank from the DRCST and the BA q Addition System. j At the point where ATOG instructs the operator to establish seal injection LPI flow has been > 1,000 gpm for > 20 minutes. The RCS pressure and temperature is ) l significantly less than normal temperature and pressure. It is very unlikely that ' damage to the seals would occur from the postponement of seal injection. The E0P's therefore do not dictate that seal injection be established at this point, but l rather allow the operator to proceed with more pertinent actions and establish { seal injection when time permits. i DIFFERENCE 12 - ATOG step 5.1.A. E0P step 10.1: 1 The step " Depress manual to clear the EFIC trip signals", is not explicitly included ' in the E0P's; rather it is understood that EFIC trip signals will have to be cleared in order to stop the AFW pumps. This AT0G step is therefore part of E0P step'10.1 "stop the AFW pumps". DIFFERENCE 13 - ATOG step 5.1.C. E0P step 10.1: The list of isolation valves differs between the ATOG and the E0P's. Startup and MFW regulating valves (FV-20575. FV-20576, FV-20525 and FV-20526) in ATOG were replaced by MFW stop valves (FV-20529 and FV-20530) in the E0P's. This was due to the EFIC modifications. The new valve isolation arrangement still provides the same degree of isolation for MFW, l CP-6 l e l
1 ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON CP.101 . Additional AFW valve isolations were added to the E0P's (FV-20531, FV-20532. HV-20581, and HV-20582) as a result of the EFIC mods. THs creates a higher degree of isolation for the AFW System. Finally, the OTSG blowdown valve HV-20611 (blowdown isolation at the condenser) exists in the E0P's, in addition to the individual blowdown isolation valves, to provide double valve isolation, i DIFFERENCE 14 - E0P step 14: , This step regarding R.B. hydrogen was added to the E0P's. It does not exist in AT0G. This step ensures adequate hydrogen mixing in the event that Reactor Building upperdome air circulators are not in-service. DIFFERENCE 15 - ATOG step 5.2: Step 5.2 of ATOG requires verification of R.B. isolation. This is performed in step 1 of the E0P CP.; " Verify SFAS initiation". In step 1 the operators verify that SFAS has closed the R.B. isolation and if that action did not automatically occur the operators would manually isolate the R.B. at that point. The ATOG step is' redundant with the direction given in step 1. DIFFERENCE 16 - ATOG step 6.1: The steps described in the ATOG step 6.1, " Shutdown turbine, feedwater and steam systems" are also included in the plant shutdown procedure OP B.4. This step is redundant with step 12.4, which states " complete secondary plant shutdown per B.4", and is therefore not included in the E0P's. I DIFFERENCE 17 - ATOG step 6.5.D, E0P step 12.6: l i ATOG describes starting 3 R.B. coolers with maximum NSCW. The E0P's describe starting 4 R.B. with maximum NSCW and NSRW, The E0P's add conservatism by starting the 4th R.B. cooler and provide additional necessary information to also start NSRW to cool the NSCW. , DIFFERENCE 18 - ATOG step 6.5.B. E0P step 12.6.2: I The E0P's provide clarification of the ATOG high temperature limit. The E0P's also require the coolers to be started if temperature indication is lost to provide additional conservatism. CP-7

SMUD is installing hydrogen recombiners to reduce the. hydrogen concentration ir:- the Reactor Building. ~ The E0P's will provide guidance specific to;the recombiners.. It will not be necessa'ry to stop the recombiners on high radiation levels because. I they will be self-contained in the R.B. and will have no R.B. penetrations. The' ' CP's will be revised due to this hardware change. and hydrogen recombiner guidance-will satisfy the intent of ATOG step-0.9. .

DIFFERENCE 22 - E0P step 13.2.4: This step was added to the ATOG material in the E0Ps. The step-was added as a result of equipment qualification studies.

DIFFERENCE 2: Added new step 1.3 "IF the high point vent valves have been opened as an ICC action,- leave open until RCS is subcooled OR the Decay Heat System is in operation with RCS pressure <140 PSIG." This is T requirement of the TBD (IV.E.2.2). l DIFFERENCE 3: Table 1 of AT0G was deleted in revision 1. Maintaining OTSG pressures, levels and RCS cooldown rate are expected operator actions and are emphasized throughout the E0Ps. DIFFERENCE 4:
,- Refer to CP.101 Difference 1.
DIFFERENCE 5. Starting the RCP in the' loop. with the operable OTSG is the recommended method of restoring heat transfer per TBDqection III.C.3.5. DIFFERENCE 6: The phrase "If RCP(s) cannot be restarted" was added to step 9 to complement step
- 7. This is a procedural enhancement to reduce operator confusion. l DIFFERENCE 7:
Changed requirement for closing CFT outlet valves from indicated level at zero feet to the respective LPI flow reaching 1,000 gpm. This is a recommendation of the TBD (IV.B.5.1) to prevent isolation of the CFT outlet valves at the wrong time due to post-accident containment environmental effects on the CFT level instrumentation. s CP-24 _ _ . _ _ _ . . . _ , .

E0P CP.101 step 12.2 closes the EMOV and EMOV block after the RCS pressure has~ been reduced to 140 psig. At this point the plant is transitioning from HPI cooling to LPI/DHS cooling. s DIFFERENCE 11: 1 ATOG CP.103 step 11 states " SELECT LPI/DHS OR NATURAL CIRCULATION.COOLDOWN. IF LP!/DHS C00LDOWN IS SELECTED, THEN GO TO STEP 13.0, OTHERWISE CONTINUE'WITH OT5G COOLING." This step implied that the cooldown could be' completed with OTSG's without having to use LPI/DHS if use of the R.B. Emergency Sump water is undesirable. f This is not possible since LPI/DHS is necessary for inventory control, either directly or through " piggyback". CP.103 now utilizes LPI/DHS cooling on sump recirculation if necessary. l DIFFERENCE 12:

ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON I g. CP.104 l DIFFERENCE 1: [ 1 1 E0P CP.104 step 1.1 references Rule 2, but AT0G CP 104 step 1.1~does not. The ) reference to Rule 2 is simply additional direction that will provide more I complete information to the operator regarding HPI operation. 1 DIFFERENCE 2: I E0P CP.104 step 1.2 was added to provide better continuity of action when entering CP.104 from E.07, ICC. The requirements of this step are those j recommended in the TBD (IV.E.2.1). ! DIFFERENCE 3: I E0P CP.104 step 3.0 does not exist in the AT0G CP.104. This step was added , to ensure proper action would be taken if the RCS became superheated since, ! because the RCS is already in a saturated condition, there is some likelihood a superheat condition could evolve and CP.104 was not designed to address a superheat situation. 1 DIFFERENCE 4:
)
E0P CP.104 step 7.1 states as part of its direction "...AND cooldown rate is I
<100"F/Hr. THEN go to step 10.0. The corresponding AT0ii CP.104 step states l is part "... but voids are trapped in high points of loops". This change was I made to ensure the operator doesn't attempt to recover OTSG heat transfer when !
its unnecessary due to the amount of HPI injection required. This change was made as part of incorporating the recommendations of TBD section III. B.3.5. ] DIFFERENCE 5: E0P CP.104 step 7.2 states in part "The RCS is saturated...". This statement is not part of the corresponding ATOG CP.104 step. This statement of condition was added to provide more specific information regarding the plant condition ' that would apply for this step. OlFFERENCE6: The direction of E0P CP.104 step 8.0 differs from that of ATOG CP.104 step 7.0 in that it directs the operator to a different loc,ation in CP.103. This results in two additional CP.103 steps being encountered: step 8.0 which gives direction

ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON r' CP.104 DIFFERENCE 6 (Con't): ) if the RCS reaches a superheat condition and step 9.0 which gives direction ,
. if RCS SCM is regained. Addressing these additional steps provides necessary I direction to the operator that may apply as he proceeds within CP.103. The direction of E0P CP.104 step 8.0 is therefore considered more appropriate when transferring to CP.103.
DIFFERENCE 7: E0P CP.104 step 9.0 is titled differently than the corresponding ATOG CP.104 step (8.0). This wording change was made to more accurately describe the intent of the substeps. DIFFERENCE 8: i E0P CP.104 step 9.3 specifies 381" vs. 379" for the correct OTSG 1evel to be maintained. E0P CP.104 direction is correct and reflects the current EFIC system design / operation. Refer to A.51, Auxiliary Feedwater System, for further information on EFIC.
' DIFFERENCE 9:
The direction of AT0G CP.104 step 9.0 is distributed throughout steps 11.0, 13.0, 17.0 and 18.0 of E0P CP.104. The E0P steps provide the same direction as those in AT0G, but at the completion of certain actions rather than before any heat transfer restoration steps are taken. DIFFERENCE 10: AT0G CP.104 steps 10.0, 11.0, and 12.0 provide direction for restoring heat transfer. The corresponding steps in E0P CP.104 are also 10.0. 11.0 and 12.0 however, the specific direction is somewhat different. The'EOP CP.104 steps were written to agree with the actions specified for restoring heat transfer in E.04, Loss of Heat Transfer, thereby providing consistency of direction i between these two procedures. The E.04 actions are based on the recommendations of TBD sections III.G.2.2.4 and III.G.2.2.5. l CP-39 1
l J ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON CP.104 , J DIFFERENCE 11: The condition for allowing an RCP start even if the RCS is saturated in E0P - CP.104 step 14.0 is not specified in the corresponding.ATOG CP.104 step. This . clarification was added to ensure the operator understood it was the intent of the CP.104 step to start an RCP, if possible, regardless of RCS SCM since this action would be contrary to the requirement that adequate SCM must exist to start and run an RCP. Refer to analysis of TBD III.C.2.7/3.5 difference
#S.
4 OIFFERENCE 12: The required DTSG level of ATOG CP.104 step 13.0 is different from that of E0P CP.104 step 14.0 in that the E0P step specifies to start an RCP in a loop with the highest OTSG level (if possible) while the ATOG step only requires an OTSG level greater than 24". The E0P step direction is more appropriate since the effectiveness of the OSTG as a heat sink to collapse RCS voids is directly related to the level within, f i I l CP-40 E-_-------_---

'. ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON CP.105 DIFFERENCE 1: s Step 1.0 of ATOG CP.105 directs the operator to close HPVs, if open.
CP.105 of the EOPs has had this step deleted (Rev. 3) because it would - not apply for those E0Ps that direct the operator to CP.105. This is because specific direction regarding operation of the HPVs has been-directly incorporated into these E0Ps. The related E0Ps and applicable steps are: ! E.04, steps 11.2, 11.4, 11.5 E.06, steps 14.2, 19.1, 19.1.2, 22.2 DIFFERENCE 2: EOP CP.105 provides extra direction to step for adjusting HPI flow to j ensure operator remembers there are other applicable limits he must J also observe.
, DIFFERENCE 3:
I E0P CP.105 requires normal makeup be reestablished as well as normal letdown in order to allow one operator to have total volume control at one station. Otherwise, two operators vould be required: one at HIRC for letdown and one at H2SFA/B for HPI-DIFFERENCE 4: ! ATOG CP.105 has the operator close the EMOV and then reestablish let- 1 down. E0P CP.105 is reversed to provide a method for reducing RCS pressure, if necessary, when the EMOV is closed without having to adjust HPI. Again, this enables one operator to have total control, thereby preventing inadvertent difficulties due to coordination / communication problems. DIFFERENCE 5: ATOG CP.105 step 4.4 direction is essentially ide.ntical to step 4.1. No corresponding E0P CP.105 step exists because it is deemed unnecessary. DIFFERENCE 6: E0P CP.105 contains extra direction for the operator to ensure all pressurizer vents are closed both normal and ' emergency.' This direction is a precautionary measure to ensure all pressurizer fluid discharge paths that allow non-recoverable mass be lost from the RCS ( are isolated.

- )
DIFFERENCE 7: 4 E0P CP.105 contains extra direction.for RCS pressure control methods available that is not contained in ATOG CP.105. This E0P CP.'105 step j acts to summarize for the operator what pressure control l methods. ] should be available,to him so'he can ensure actual plant conditions :.' agree in this respect to those recognized for use in'the procedure. DIFFERENCE 8: EOP CP.105 steps 5.'2, 5.3'and 5.4 provide specific direction for steam = bubble formations not found in ATOG'CP.105. The EOP.CP.'105 directs the operator to continue cooling down which, in addition to providing, desired direction for overall plant control, will enable a pressurizer bubble to be formed earlier, j Direction to control SCM is presented as a reminder.to the operator since, due to the simultaneous operations being performed at this time, it will bear close watching. Per E0P CP.105 pressurizer bubble formation is allowed once an RCS-to-pressurizer temperature difference of at least 50*F is attained. This ensures adequate SCM once the bubble is. formed. The ATOG CP.105 compares RCS temperature to a corresponding saturation temperature for' ( existing RCS pressure. This method won't necessarily ensure adequate SCM after bubble formation because the pressurizer may not be'in equilibrium. If system pressure is being held up because of volume control a bubble could be formed at too low a pressure, possibly violating SCM requirements and resulting in full HPI initiation once again. DIFFERENCE 9: i EOP CP.105 contains a CAUTION concerning operation of HPI mini-flow ! valves and the MUT outlet valve. The addition of this CAUTION was to address, in part, the incorrect equipment operations that took place
]j during the December 1985 transient that resulted in equipment damage. J Its presence is to provide plant specific direction that is outside the scope of ATOG.
DIFFERENCE 10: ATOG CP.105 directs that a pressurizer level of 220" be established following bubble formation while E0P CP.105 correctly requires 100" to comply with plant specific requirements for the mode of operation in effect. i s CP-48 J lj
ATOG TO E0P COMPARISON CP.105 DIFFERENCE 11: ATOC CP.105 steps 8.1 and 8.2 require a 30'F subcooling margin be maintained during the cooldown and, if not, then. maintain maximum HPI. E0P CP.105 provides specific direction for how to control SCM as.well as all applicable pressure limits to be followed. If the direction of ATOG CP.105 were followed the Fuel-in-Compression limits, at the least, would be violated during some portions of the cooldown. DIFFERENCE 12: ATOG CP.105 requires isolation of letdown in step 8.3, however, E0P CP.105 only requires letdown icolation if required to maintain SCM. By allowing the operator use of normal letdown, his control of the ,. solid RCS is enhanced, thereby reducing the potential for large pressure I swings that may result in loss of the controlled solid plant evolution l (e.g. losing SCM). i DIFFERENCE 13: ATOG CP.105 step 8.4 directs the operator to specific Rule 2 which addresses HPI Flow Control. There is no corresponding E0P CP.105 step because this direction is incorporated in E0P CP.105 step 7.0. ( DIFFERENCE 14: E0P CP.105 step 8.4 containa extra direction not found in ATOG CP.105 1 > for a cooldown procedure reference if RCPs are not operating. It is possible to go through CP.105 on natural circulation if RCPs cannot be run, thus it is proper this guidance exist for this situation. 1 ! CP-49

gg f { 4.0 PREREQUISITES None 5.0 PRECAUTIONS 5.1 Where there are differences between this procedure and AP.2.10, this procedure shall supersede AP.2.10. 14 5.2 This writers guide is intended to produce a procedure which is concise and clear. If required application of one or more provisions in this procedure to a step or a part of an E0P doesn't produce the intent, then deviations are allowed. Deviations shall be identified in writing by the E0P writer and approved or, an individual basis by the Project / Procedures Operations Superintendent. (See Enclosure 8.1) 6.0 PROCEDORE 6.1 Maintain the Technical Basis of the E0P's Policy. The E0Ps have been written based on technical information including the B&W Technical Basis Document (TBD) and the Rancho Seco Abnormal Transient Operating Guildeline ( ATOG). The reference document shall be the TBD: E0P actions which are deviations from the TBD shall be identified, justified, and appreved with an appropriate basis; such as additional 3 evaluation, site specifics, training, B&W advisories, or experience using the E0Ps. There are E0P actions in addition to those of the TBD which are written to site specific requirements. These actions are not deviations from the TBD. These do not require justification as discussed above although it is desirable to document the basis for these actions. 6.1 .1 Documentation and Approval of the E0P Basis 6.1 .l.1 A document titled " Rancho Seco E0P Technical Basis" (EOP-TB) shall be maintained which implements the above Policy. This document includes a Logic Comparison and Text Comparison which assures that, and documents how the E0Ps implement the intent of the TBD. 6.1 .l.2 Logic Comparison This is a comparison of the TBD logic to the E0P logic. This may be accomplished by comparison of TBD and E0P flow ;
- charts or other suitable methods.

The right page will contain the actual procedural steps which are' to be performed by the plant operators in order to control and mitigate plant transients. The left page will contain supplemental-information which is not required for the performance of the procedure, but may. enhance. the operator's understanding of it. ; 6.3 .1 Cover Page ,. 6.3 .l.1 The cover page will contain the emergency procedure alpha numeric designator.and title at the top of the page. 6.3 .1.2 The cover page may.show a figure of a typical _SPDS trace for a heat transfer upset which would require the-use of the procedure. Procedures which are not entered as a result'of an SPDS trace, such as E.06 "SGTR", will have no figure on the front. 6.3 .l.3 E.01, "Immediate' Actions" consists of only one page and will not have a cover sheet. 6.3 .2 Information Page-6.3 .2.1 Tdeleftpageinthetwopageformatwillbelabeled "Information Page" at-the top of the page. : 6 1++ 6.3 .2.2 The information page may contain information which is useful as training material, provides supplementary information-about procedural steps, highlight applicable rules, and- , display figures which illustrate SPOS traces typical of i those accompanying,the applicable transients. l 1++ 6.3 .2.3 The informational steps should be located directly across the page from the procedural step it relates to, as'much as- ' possible. They will also be numbered to match the procedural step to which they apply. , 6.3 .3 Operator Actions Page 6.3 .3,1 The~right page in the two page format will be' labeled at the tcp of the page with the alpha numeric. designation of the procedure and the procedure title. i 6.3 .3.2 The required operator action will.be provided on the right page. The steps will be provided in short, concise, identifiable instructions that give appropriate directions; to the user. Rev.1 AP.2.24-5
d j PROCEDURE (Continued) 6.3 .3.3 The main steps of the' procedure will be~ printed in RED' extra large capital letters. The more detailed substeps will-be .l printed in normal size letters with black ink. The intent' of the large red lettering is to emphasize the main . action
] =1 14 of the step or the entry condition for substeps. The substeps are' written in more detail should the operator need m +- that to perform the main step.
6.3 .3.4 Cautions shall be' printed in blue capital'1etters with' a blue. box enclosing the caution. This. emphasizes.the caution and decreases the possibility of it being overlooked if the reader branches to a step after the caution. 6.3 .3,5 Headings and status information wil1~be on the.right page' with a line above and below them. They will be in all capital letters. 6.3 .3.6 Steps will be numbered in arabic numerals with indentation for each level of substeps.

6.4 Writing Instructional Steps ! I 6.4 .1 Instruction Step Length and Content Instruction ste'ps'will be concise and precise. Conciseness denotes brevity; preciseness means. exactly defined. Thus,. instructions should be short and exact. This is easily stated, but not so easily achieved. General guidelines to be used in meeting these objectives are as follows.: 6.4 .1.1 Instruction steps should deal with only one' idea. 6.4 .l.2 Short, simple sentences should be.used in preference to long, compound, or complex sentences. 6.4 .1.3 Three or more evolutions should be prescribed in a. series of stdps, with each step made as simple as practicable. 3 6.4 .1. 4 Objects of operator actions should be specifically stated. This includes identification of. exactly what is to be done and to what. 6.4 .1. 5 For instructional steps that involve an action verb relating to three or more. objects, the' objects will be. listed. 6.4 .1.6 Limits should be expressed quantitat'ively.whenever possible. 6.4 .1.7 Mandatory sequence of steps is assumed unless otherwise i stated. (Ref. 2.6 "Use of E0Ps") ! 6.4 .l .8 Identification of components and parts should be complete. List the noun name (or. standard abbreviation), number and i' 14 verify that they agree with Control Room labeling. ' Major components may not need to include all label information'if doing so would clutter the procedure in a way'to slow or interfere with operator understanding and if there is- il minimal chance for error. l EXAMPLE: Start RCPs A and B '! is preferred over .
- START RCP P210A and P210B.

Operatctr actions should be.related to i plant parameters. 6.4 .l.15 When anticipated system response may adversely affect. .j ins'trument indications, describe-the conditions that will likely introduce. instrument error and.means of. determining )- if instrument error has occurred within the procedural steps or with a caution statement.~ 6.4 .l.16 When additional confirmation of system response-is. considered necessary, prescribe the backup readings to be i made. .l 6.4 .2 Contingency Actions 4 6.4 .2.1 Contingency actions will be presented, when applicable, following detailed action. The need for contingency action occurs in conjunction with tasks involving verification, observation, confirmation,'and monitoring. Contingency-actions will most frequently be.in an "IF-THEN"

a n 1 PROCEDURE. (Continued) l Use of Logic Terms 6.4 .3 6.4 .3.1 The logic terms:AND, OR, NOT, IE, IF NOT, WHEN, and THENiare'
!often necessary to describe precisely a set.of conditions ors q sequence of actions. When logic. statements are used, logic: a terms will be highlighted.so.that all the conditions are clear-to.the operator. Emphasis will be achieved by using: ,
capitalization and underlining. All letters;of the logic j-terms shall .be capitalized and the' words will be underlined. if they are used within a sentence. Logic' terms that; stand. l by themselves will be capitalized only.
~
6.4 .3.2 The use of AND and OR within the same action shall be
- avoided. When ' AND and OR are used together, the logic can be very ambiguous.
6.4 .4 Use of Cautions 6.4 . 4 .1 Cautions shall extend across the page prior to the steps to which they apply. A caution cannot be used instead of an instructional step (it cannot contain an action step). It should be used to denote a potential hazard to equipment or personnel associated with the subsequent instructional step. 6.4 .5 Use of Notes 6.4 .5.1 If additional information other .than cautions is desired to support.an action instruction, a note may be used. A note shall present information only, not instructions, and shall be entered on the information page~ opposite the procedural 14 step. .The note should be numbered to match the step to
+ which it relates.
6.4 .6 Calculations 6.4 .6.1 Mathematical calculations shall not be used in E0Ps. If a value has to be determined in order to perform a procedural 14 step, a chart or graph shall be used. The one. exception is is the calculation of offsite dose relating to OTSG isolation
- limits in E.06.

a PROCEDURE (Continued) 6.4 .7 Plant Instrumentation Values 6.4 .7.1 When presenting instrumentation values, provide a band'if possible (tolerance or limit). Values shall be presented in the same units as those displayed on the instrument to'be-used and should be compatible with the operators ability to read the instrument. 6.4 .7.2 Always use conservative values within the precision of the- . operator to read it. Example: If an upper engineering limit is 22.75 psig, however the operator can only read 22'.7 or 23 psig on the meter with precision, then use the limit of 22.5 6.4 .8 Component Identification With respect to identification of components,.the following rules are to be followed: 6.4- .8.1 Equipment, controls, and displays will be_id'entified by 14 their noun names (or standard abbreviations) and by their equipment. identification number except as noted in 6.4.1.8
+ of this procedure.
6.4 .8.2 The names of plant system titles are_ emphasized'by initial capitalization. When the word " system" is deleted from the title because of brevity and is understood because of the 4 context, the title is also_ emphasized by initial capitalization. I 6.4 .8.3 If the component is seldom used or it is felt that the component may be difficult to find, location information may I be given in parentheses following the identification, or in i an information page note. s 6.4 .9 Use of Underlining 6.4 .9.1 Underlining will be used for emphasis, primarily for logic l terms. 6.4 .10 Referencing and Branching to Other Procedures or Steps Rev.1 AP.2 24-10 ,
I a PROCEDURE (Continued) E
- 6.4 .10.1 Referencing .(Refer to, In Conjunction with...) implies that an additional procedure or additional steps Will be used'as a supplement to the procedure presently being used. H 14 Referencing 2in: E procedures is not' allowed. The operator. If must perform the E. procedure without using other procedures q (except rules).
+
6.4 .10.2 To minimize potential operator confusion,' branching'will be.- used when the' operator is to leave one' procedure or step and use another procedure or step. Use the key words "go'to." Therefore, the operator will know to-leave the present step and not return until directed. 6.4 10.3 Use quotation marks to emphasize the title of the referencedD or branched procedure. Example: Go to E-01, "Immediate Actions". 6.4 .11 Level of Detail 6.4 .11.1 Too much detail in E0Ps should be avoided in the: interest of being able-to effectively execute the instructions ~in a timely manner. The level of detail required is the detail that a recently licensed operator would desire'during an emergency condition. 6.4 .12 The following action VERB INSTRUCTIONS should be used in writing g E0Ps. 6.4 .12.1 For power-driven rotating equipment, use Start, Stop. 6.4 .12.2 For valves, use Open, Close, Throttle.Open, Throttle Close, 1+ Throttle. (Ref. 2.6 "Use of the term Throttle and
- Terminate")
6.4 .12.3 For power distribution breakers, use Synchronize and Close, Open. 6.4 .12.4 For control switches with a positional placement that establishes a standby readiness condition, the verb " Place" should be used, along with the engraved name of the desired , position. Positional placements are typically associated I with establishing readiness of automatic functions and are typically labeled AUTO or NORMAL. j] Example: " Place the GLAND SEAL AIR COMPRESSOR Control Switch (515) in AUTO." i Rev,l. AP.2.24-ll 3
PROCEDURE (Continued) l ' 6.4 .12.5 For multiposition control switches that have more than one position for a similar function, placement to the desired , position should be specified. Example: " Place DIESEL FIRE PUMP SELECTOR Switch to TEST' No. 2." 6.4 .12.6 Standard practices for observing for abnormal results need not be prescribed within procedural steps. For' instance, observation of noise, vibration, erratic flow, or discharge pressure need not be specified by steps that start pumps. 6.4 .13 Graphs, Tables, etc. 6.4 .13.1 When information is presented using graphs, charts, tables, and figures, these aids must be self-explanatory, legible, and readable under the expected conditions of use and within the reading precision of the operator in units common to operator and his instrumentation. 6.4 .14 Units of Measure 6.4 .14.1 Units of measure on figures, tables, and attachments should be given for numerical values that represent observed, 14 measurement data, or calculated results. A slant line
- should be used instead of "per".
1 Examples: ft/sec, lbs/hr. The objective is to ensure that conversions do not have to be made by the operator. 6.4 .15 Titles and Headings 6.4 .15.1 Capitalization should be used for references to tables and figures, titles of tables and figures within text material, and column headings within a table. 1 Examples: Refer to Figure 201 for.............
. . . . . . .as shown in Table 201, Equipment i Power Supplies, the........
6.4 .16 Figures, Table, and Attachment Numbering 6.4 .16.1 Sequential arabic numbers should be assigned to figures, tables, and attachments in separate series. The sequence ; should correspond with the order of their reference in the i text. The symbol "#" and abbreviation "No," are unnecessary and should not De used. The number alone suf fices. Examples: Figure 1 Table 1, Attachment 1. Rev.1 a AP.2.24-12
I PROCEDURE (Continued) 6.4 .16.2 Page identification for attachments should consist of a . block of information that identifies (1) procedure number, 1 (2) attachment number, (3) page number, and (4) revision ! number. Page numbering of attachments should meet the requirements of 3.2.4. 6.5 Mechanics of Style . l l 6.5 .1 Punctuation l 6.5 . l .1 Punctuation should be used only as necessary to aid reading j and prevent misunderstanding. Word order should be selected j to require a minimum of punctuation. When extensive ! punctuation is necessary for clarity, the sentence should be { rewritten and possibly made into several sentences. . i 6.5 .2 Numerical Values The use of numerical values should be consistent with the following rules: 6.5 .2.1 For numbers less than unity, the decin.al point should be . preceded by a zero. l 1
. Example: 0 .1.
6.5 .2.2 The number of significant digits should be equal to the number of significant digits available from the display and the reading precision of the operator ~. 6.5 .2.3 Acceptance values should be specified in such a way that addition 'and subtraction by the user is avoided ,1f possible. This can generally be done by stating acceptance values as limits. Examples: 510'F maximum, 300 psig minimum, 580' to 600*F. Avoid using . 6.5 .2.4 Engineering units should always be specified for numerical l values of process variables.

6.2' Complex scenarios, adequate to~ bring critical safety. functions into. -] play, are necessary to. fully challenge the validity of a proposed procedure or procedure change. The scope of the scenario, its"use, and even the need for it, are determined by the Projects / Procedures Operations - Superintendent. 6.3 Through the validation process,'the elements of the Control Room Design. Review,-Human Factor Consideration,-specific equipment compatibility (e.g.. SPOS,.IDADS, EFIC), Operator Training, are all tested for proper interfacing as an integrated. system with the E0Ps. 4 6.4 . Validation may be performed'before or afte'r procedure approval (PRC, Nuclear Operations Manager) and validation can be performed in < conjunction with AP.2.05 (Verification of Emergency Operating. Procedure). 6.4 .1 Validation shall be re-performed on the E0P anytime a discrepancy is found during the verification process ( AP.2.05), if verification was not completed prior to sslidation. 6.4 .2 If validation is performed before approval, validation' comments may be incorporated into the draf t procedure prior .to approval. Final . validation of the approved procedure is cequired and shall be ' appropriate to the nature of changes made since the pre-approval validation, per 6.1. f .. 8,' 6.5 The Table Top Validation participants should consist of, but not be

After the simulator session is complete, the observer.. q and crew will meet and discuss and evaluate the E0P adequacy of i each scenario run during the' simulator session. 6.8 Th'e E0P writer is responsible for the resolution of identified deficiencies. 6.8 .1 The Projects / Procedures Operations Superintendent.is responsible for ensuring all deficiencies.and resolutions are documented and. retained as a record of the Validation process. 6.9 Verification and Validation will~be considered ~ complete upon completion of Record 7.4 in AP. 2.05 and Record 7.5 of AP. 2.06. Significant' changes and/or revisions to any.of the Emergency Responsibility Capability function (i'.e., Physical Plant / Control Room, Training, EOF, E0P) in order to resolve a discrepancy may in itself require repeating the previous Verification.and Validation steps. This determination is 4 the responsibility of the Projects / Procedures Operations Superintendent. . 6.10' The Projects / Procedures Operations Superintendent has th'e responsibility of completing Record 7.5.
