4 INSERT B 3/4.1.5 The design objective of the Standby Liquid Control (SLC) System is two fold. One objective is to provide backup capability for bringing the reactor from full power to a cold, Xenon-free shutdown, assuming that the withdrawn control rods remain fixed in the rated power pattern.

The second objective of the SLC System is to meet the requirement of the ATWS Rule, specifically 10CFR50.62 paragraph (c)(4) which states that, in part:

"Each boiling water reactor must have a standby liquid control system (SLCS) with a minimum flow capacity and boron content equivalent in control capacity to 86 gallons per minute of 13 weight percent sodium pentaborate solution."

The SLC System uses enriched Boron-10 (contained in the sodium pentaborate solution) to comply with 10CFR50.62 paragraph (c)(4). The methods used to determine compliance with ATWS Rule are in accordance with Reference 4.

To meet both objectives, it is necessary to inject a minimum quantity of 2350 net gallons of 65 atom percent Boron-10 enriched sodium pentaborate in a solution having a concentration of no less than 9.0 weight percent (see Figure 3 1.5-1 for equivalent volumes and concentration ranges). The equivalent concentration of natural boron reguiredtoshutdownthereactoris660partspermillion(ppm)inthe 70 F moderator, including the Recirculation loops and with the RHR Shutdown Cooling Subsystems in operation. In addition to this, a 25 percent margin is provided to allow for leakage and imperfect mixing (825 ppm). The pumping rate of 41.2 gpm provides a negative m reactivity insertion rate over the permissible sodium pentaborate solution volume range, which adequately compensates for the positive reactivity effects due to moderator temperature reduction and xenon decay during shutdown. The temperature requirement is necessary to ensure that the sodium pentaborate remains in solution.

INSERT 3/4.1.5.a The SLC tank heaters are only required when mixing sodium pentaborate and/or water to establish the required solution operating parameters during additions to the SLC tank. Normal operation of the SLCS does not depend on these tank heaters to maintain the solution above its saturation temperature. Technical requirements have been placed on the tank heater circuit breakers to ensure that their failure will not degrade other SLC components (see Specification 3/4.8.4.5).

3/4.8.4 ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT PROTECTIVE DEVICES  !

Primary containment electrical penetrations and penetration conductors are protected by either de-energizing circuits not required during reactor operaticn or demonstrating the OPERABILITY of primary and backup overcurrent protection circuit breakers by periodic surveillance.

The surveillance requirements applicable to lower voltage circuit breakers and fuses provide assurance of breaker and fuse reliability by testing et least one representative sample of each manufacturers brand of circuit breaker and/or fuse. Each manufacturer's molded case and metal case circuit breakers and/or fuses are grouped into representative samples which are then tested on a rotating basis to ensure that all breakers and/or fuses are tested, If a wide variety exists within any manufacturer's brand of circuit breakers and/or fuses, it is necessary to divide that manufacturer's breakers and/or fuses into groups and treat each group as a separate type of breaker or fuse for surveillance purposes.

The OPERABILITY of the motor operated valves thermal overload protection ensures that the thermal overload protection will not prevent safety related valves from performing their function. The Surveillance Requirements for demonstrating the OPERABILITY of the thermal overload protection are in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.106 " Thermal Overload Protection for Electric Motors on Motor Operated Valves," Revision 1, March 1977.

Circuit breakers actuated by fault currents are used as isolation devices to protect equipment associated with the Standby Liquid Control System. The OPERABILITY of these circuit breakers will ensure that the SLCS equipment is protected in the event of faults in the loads powered by these circuit breakers.
