SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THE PROPOSED l
CONVERSION TO THE IMPROVED STANDARD TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR WOLF CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, UNIT NO.1 (TAC NO. M98738)
Dear Mr. Maynard:
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff is reviewing the Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating l
Corporation's proposed license amendment to convert the current technical specifications for
)
Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Unit No.1 to the Improved Standard Technical j
Specifications. Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation provided their proposed license amendment request by letter dated May 15,1997.
]
The staff has reviewed selected portions of the application. Based on its review, the staff has determined that additional information is needed in Section 3.7, Plant Systems, as discussed in the enclosure. Since you worked with three other utilities in preparing your submittal, the enclosure contains the request for additional information (RAl) questions for all four utilities.
However, you need only reply to the RAI questions associated with the Wolf Creek Nuclear l
Generating Station, Unit No.1 as identified in the enclosure.
To assist the staff in maintaining its review schedule, please respond to the questions pertaining to Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Unit No.1 within 30 days of the date i
of this letter. If you have any questions regarding the RAI, please contact me at (301)415-1362. If all four utilities would like to have a common discussion, a single meeting, or phone call, it can be coordinated by contacting the NRR Lead Project Manager, l
Jack Donohew at (301) 415-1307.

FOUR LOOP CROUP (FLOG) IMPROV.ED TS REVIEW COMMENTS SECTiON 3.7 - PLANT SYSTEMS 3.7.1 Main Steam Safety Valves (MSSVs) 3.7.1.-1 CTS 3.7.1.1, LCO Statement
)
ITS 3.7.1, LCO Statement DOC 01-01-A CTS 3.7.1.1 LCO requires the MSSVs operable per Table 3.7-2. The STS 3.7.1 requires the MSSVs Operable as specified in Table 3.7.1-1 and Table 3.7.1-2. The ITS 3.7.1 states the j
MSSVs are Operable but deletes the phrase "as specified in Table 3.7.1-1 and Table 3.7.1-2".
Comment: DOC 01-01-A states this is consistent with the NUREG-1431. This is not the cas,e.
Revise the submittal to retain the STS format which is an administrative reformatting change of the CTS requirement.
FLOG Response:
3.7.1.-2 (CPSES)
CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a ITS 3.7.1 Actions Note DOC 01-02-LS1 ITS 3.7.1 adds a new Actions Note that states, " Separate Condition entry is allowed for each MSSV". The markup for CTS 3.7.1.1 states " Separate entry time is allowed for each MSSV."
Comment: Revise the CTS markup to be consistent with the ITS 3.7.1 Actions Note.
FLOG Response:
i 3.7.1.-3 (DCPP)
CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a ITS 3.7.1 Required Actions A.1 and A.2 DOC 01-xx-A CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a states that " operation in MODES 1 and 2 may proceed provided.." ITS 3.7.1 Required Actions A.1 and A.2 imply that operation may continue if the Required Actions are met.
4 Comment: There is no explanation for the deletion of this CTS requirement. The requirement I
I is still applicable in the ITS beceuse the explicit statement of the CTS is no longer necessary due to the general requirements of ITS Section 1.3, Ccmpletion Times. Either revise the submittal to justify this deletion or revise the CTS markup and retain this requirement.

3.7.1.-4 CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a ITS 3.7.1 Action A.1 and A.2 and Table 3.7.1-1 DOC 01-04-LS3 JFD 3.7-01 This change is beyond the scope of a conversion because of the industry travelers referenced in this DOC (WOG-83, Rev 0 and Rev.1) that have not been approved by the NRC.
Comment: Withdraw the change or adopt the STS.
FLOG Response:
3.7.1.-5 CTS 3.7.1.1 Action b ITS 3.0.4 and ITS SR 3.7.1.1 DOC 01-05-M CTS 3.7.1.1 Action b states that "The provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable." A note in ITS SR 3.7.1.1 states the SR is only required in Modes 1 and 2.
Comment: This change is in accordance with the STS and it is acceptable. However, the DOC is incorrectly justified as a "more restrictive change. ITS 3.0.4 has been revised to permit the placement of Notes, as in this case, that permit entry into Modes of operation where the LCO Operability can be established. This is an administrative change that reformats the CTS requirements for the purpose of clarification by explicitly stating the reason for Specification 3.0.4 not being applicable. Revise the submittal to provide an "A" DOC.
FLOG Response:
3.7.1.-6 (WCGS)
CTS 3.7.1.1 Action b ITS 3.0.4 and ITS SR 3.7.1.1 l
DOC 01-05-M CTS 3.7.1.1 Action b states that "The provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable." ITS 3.7.1 deletes this action and adds a note in ITS SR 3.7.1.1 stating the SR is only required in l
Modes 1 and 2.
Comment: For this change, the ITS is acceptable; however, the CTS markup should indicate that action b is not retained. Revise the CTS markup.
FLOG Response:

3.7.1.-7 CTS 3.7.1.1 Actions ITS 3.7.1 Action B DOC 01-06-M ITS Action B adds a new condition for when "one or more steam generators with less than two MSSVs OPERABLE", then MODE 4 is entered to exit LCC /$ placability. CTS 3.7.1.1 Actions would require the more severe LCO 3.0.3 shutdown for this degraded condition.
Comenent: This change is not "more restrictive". In this degraded condition, the loss of one hour is immaterial since the one hour is insufficient time to retum all the MSSVs to Operable.
The one hour period is the normal allocation of time to plan for an orderly plant shutdown. It is less restrictive to place the unit in Mode 4 rather than in Mode 5. The "more" and the "less" restrictive features of this change are acting as opposites. Therefore, this change should
- include all this discussion and then be revised as an administrative reformatting of the CTS Table 3.7-1 requirements.

3.7.1.-8 (Callaway)
CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a
. (WCGS)
ITS 3.7.1 Action B DOC 01-12-A CTS 3.7.1.1 Action a requires the MSSVs to be restored to Operable status within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> or the Power Range Neutron Flux High Trip Setpoints are reduced. If those actions are not completed, then the unit is placed in Mode 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. ITS 3.7.1 Action B only requires placing the unit in Mode 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> where the LCO is not applicable.
Comment: The CTS requirement to place the unit in Mode 5 is explicit and must be carried out if the MSSVs are not retumed Operable during the shutdown activities. The ITS change is less restrictive because the unit can remain indefinitely in Mode 4 for repairs rather than going into Mode 5. Revise the submittal to justify this DOC 01-12-A change as "less restrictive."

ITS Table 3.7.1-2 provide the requirements as a note.
Comment: The note in the lift setting column is confusing and indirect, Since the lift setting tolerance is different, it is recommended to revert back to the CTS presentation of the tc!erance identified after each set pressure, t

Comment: Per the Bases LCO discussion, two ADVs are required for unit cool down.
Therefore, TSTF-100 is not applicable. Hence, ITS Actions B and C can be accepted if the Required Action wording is changed to match the CTS markup. Required Action B.1 should state " Restore at least one ADV [ARV)line to OPERABLE status." Required Action C.1 should state " Restore at least two ADV [ARV) lines to OPERABLE status."

CTS 3.7.1.2 Applicability is Mode 1,2 and 3. ITS 3.7.5 Applicability is Mode 1,2 and 3.
Comment: Issue #1 - CPSES has not adopted the STS Applicability extending into Mode 4 until the " steam generator is no longer relied upon for heat removal"; however, CTS 3.7.1.7 Actions a and b requires the RCS/RHR loops be placed in operation for Mode 4 entry. ITS l
3.7.5 Applicability should be the same as the STS because (as stated in DOC 06-10-A) ITS 3.4.6 permits any combination of RCS/RHR loops in Mode 4. These CTS requirements for RCS/RHR loop operation directly imply the STS Applicability is due to the RCS/RHR transition l
temperature being at or below the Mode 4 350*F temperature limits. Explain these differences or adopt the STS.

CTS 3.7.4.1 and 3.7.4.2 Actions and Bases ITS 3.7.8 Actions and Bases JFD 3.7-30 CTS 3/4.7.4.1 and 3/4.7.4.2 are complete and different LCOs with separate Actions which are now combined, changed and converted into ITS 3.7.8 Actions.
- Comment: Issue #1 - The Bases Background and LCO discussions contain descriptions which appear to permit SSWS operating configurations that were never intended. There is nothing to prevent two inoperable SSWS trains in one unit being cross-tied to two Operable SSWS trains I
in the opposite unit. Therefore, a preventive condition should be logically connected by an QB to ITS Condition C stating "Two trains are inoperable in one unit and two trains are Operable in the opposite unit with the associated cross-connects Operable". Issue #2 -ITS Action B should be placed ahead of ITS Action A due to the length of the Completion Times and ITS 3.7.8 Action B should be split into two separate Actions. Issue #3 - By this ITS being a shared unit LCO (with no further prevents), " Separate condition entry"is implied. Therefore, a SSWS train could be assumed to be inoperable in each unit plus either the associated cross-connects or the required pump, or both, could be inoperable. Should this Condition still permit 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or warrant a shorter Completion Time of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or be directed to an immediate LCO 3.0.3.
CPSES should explain the technical basis for risking continued operation in this configuration.
Issue #4 - The Bases LCO discussion has two final paragraphs which are two new degraded operating conditions with required actions for continued operation. These Bases appear to contradict other statements in the Bases and they may not meet the Standard Review Plan i
requirements. These " Bases Conditions" must be formally included into the LCO following a technical review or otherwise resolved. CPSES should explain the technical basis for risking continued operation in these configurations.
Note: Issues #1 and #3 can also be limited by putting in an Actions note which specifically states "The Conditions and Required Actions apply simultaneously to both units."

ITS SR 3.7.8.2 requires the verification in accordance with Section XI but only of the cross connect valves.
Comment: Issue #1 - The Bases Background discussion, second paragraph, third sentence states that there are remotely aligned valves in the SSWS which seems to agree with the CTS

ITS 3.7.10 Required Action C.1 retains this CTS requirement and adds another option per Required l
Actions C.2.1 and C.2.2 which is to "s'uspend CORE ALTERATIONS and suspend movement of irradiated fuel assemblies."

The NSHC discussion contains the technicaljustification required. Therefore, revise this DOC using the NSHC text and provide a revised justification for this CTS change. Issue #2 - The STS LCO is based upon the assumption that the " emergency mode of operation" of the CRVS is for L__
, protection from the potential toxic gas or radiation release scenarios. At DCPP based upon the Bases Background discussion, it appears the recirculation state does not have the boost from the pressurization system to keep toxic and radiation contamination from leaking inward.
Therefore, the STS text should be adopted and the " pressurization" mode of opstation rather than the recirculation mode of operation is necessary h Required Action C.1. Issue #3 - Are there two pressurization systems, one for each CRVS train or is this also shared? Explain the function and design of these systems. Issue #4 - The Bases uses the CRVS " mode" of operation like the DCPP plant " MODE" of operation. This is confusing.

Move this paragraph to Action B where it belongs. Issue #4 - Condition B as justified in the Bases (see relocated paragraph of A.1) assumes that there is a minimum flow rate which is never verified as being in existence. Required Action B.1 should become B.2 and the new B.1.1 should state " Verify supply / exhaust flow rate differential is 215,000 cfm" with a Completion Time of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> M Once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> thereafter".

DOC (3.9) 12-ee-LSe l
CTS 4.9.12.b.1 requires that damper valve "M-29" is closed while operating the system with l
flow through the HEPA filter and charcoal adsorbers. ITS 3.7.13 does not contain a similar requirement.
Comment: STS SR 3.7.13.5 requires verification that each [FHBVS] filter bypass damper can -
be closed. There is no JFD provided to explain why this SR is not adopted when there appears to be an exact similarity between the CTS and STS requirements. Provide an explanation to justify not adopting or adopt the STS requirement.

l CTS 3/4.7.7 defines various EES surveillance requirements for the fuel building when in fact these requirements should apply also to the auxiliary building. ITS 3.7.13 has corrected these CTS errors by adding Notes to the Applicability, clarifying the Actions and adding a new SR.
Comment: This is an " administrative" change and not a "more restrictive" change to adapt the l
current licensing basis to reflect the original design. It is noted these tests have been performed but not under the guidance of the CTS. Therefore, this formalizes what has been current practice. For Callawav. revise DOC 12-08-M for an administrative change and revise the CTS markup where it is identified for the Applicability Note and the new SR per Insert K.
Delete the use of this DOC for Insert M where it clearly does not apply. DOC 12-09-A as presented contradicts ITS SR 3.7.13.4; so delete this DOC as redundant to DOC 12-08-A.
Also, CTS 4.7.7.d.2 for ITS SR 3.7.13.4 and CTS 3.9.13.d.3 for ITS 3.7.13.5, must correctly identify the Auxiliary and Fuel Building in the CTS to the respective SIS and FBVIS mode of operation to match the proposed ITS SR requirements. For WCGS, activate this DOC 12-08-A as an administrative change and then use it to identify the addition of the Applicability Note which is not identified in the CTS markup. Also, CTS 4.7.7.b.1 for ITS SR 3.7.13.4 and CTS 3.9.13.g.2 for ITS 3.7.13.5 are not identified in the CTS which need to have the respective SIS l
and FBVIS mode of operation identified to match the proposed ITS SR requirements.

The ITS Applicability should be similar to ITS 3.7.10 and ITS 3.7.11 for room air conditioning and temperature control. It should be either "At all times"; or " Modes 1,2,3,4,5, and 6"; or "When any unit is in Mode 1,2,3 or 4". The equipment in the UPS Rooms will dictate the appropriate mode of Applicability.

Comment: Issue #1 - The deletion of the phrase "which is not the same as the UPS in that room"is not technicallyjustified with a DOC.

CTS 3.7.11P Action b is for one or more rooms not supported by an Operable UPS fan coil or A/C train but with a UPS A/C train circulating air only. ITS 3.7.20P Action B is entered when two UPS System HVAC trains are inoperable.
Comment: Issue #1 - The addition of the new Required Actions B.1 and B.2 is not justified with a DOC. Provide these justifications in new DOCS. Also, the Action B condition logical connector phrase must be removed because there is no difference between Required Actions A.1 and B.1 which are determined concurrently. Issue #2 - The maximum temperature for these rooms must be under normal operating conditions which is 104'F and should be explicitly l
stated here. The Bases state the maximum temperature is placed in the TRM which is unacceptable. The maximum room operating temperature cannot be permitted to exist at the abnormal operating temperature limit of 113*F while in this degraded mode because this could result in the temperature safety limits being exceeded.
