Description and Assessment

License Amendment Request Attachment 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Page 1 of 6 Docket No. 50-244 Description and Assessment

1.0 DESCRIPTION

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, "Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit," Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) is requesting approval for proposed changes to the Technical Specifications (TS), Appendix A of Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR-18 for R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (Ginna).

The proposed amendment would modify the TS requirements related to Completion Times (CTs) for Required Actions (Action allowed outage times for Ginna) to provide the option to calculate a longer, risk-informed CT. A new program, the Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program, is added to TS Section 5.5, Programs and Manuals.

The methodology for using the RICT Program is described in NEI 06-09, Revision 0-A (hereafter referred to as NEI 06-09-A), "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines," Revision 0, which was approved by the NRC on May 17, 2007. Adherence to NEI 06-09-A is required by the RICT Program.

The proposed amendment is consistent with TSTF-505, Revision 2, "Provide Risk-Informed Extended Completion Times - RITSTF Initiative 4b." However, only those Required Actions described in Attachment 4 and Enclosure 1, as reflected in the proposed TS markups provided in Attachment 2, are proposed to be changed. Some of the modified Required Actions in TSTF-505 are not applicable to Ginna. Also, there are some plant-specific Required Actions not included in TSTF-505 that are included in this proposed amendment.

2.0 ASSESSMENT 2.1 Applicability of Published Safety Evaluation Exelon has reviewed TSTF-505, Revision 2, and the model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18253A085). This review included the information provided to support TSTF-505 and the safety evaluation for NEI 06-09-A. As described in the subsequent paragraphs, Exelon has concluded that the technical basis is applicable to Ginna, and support incorporation of this amendment in the Ginna TS.

2.2 Verifications and Regulatory Commitments In accordance with Section 4.0, Limitations and Conditions, of the safety evaluation for NEI 06-09-A, the following is provided:

1. Enclosure 1 identifies each of the TS Required Actions to which the RICT Program will apply, with a comparison of the TS functions to the functions modeled in the probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) of the structures, systems and components (SSCs) subject to those actions.
2. Enclosure 2 provides a discussion of the results of peer reviews and self-assessments conducted for the plant-specific PRA models which support the RICT Program, as required by Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.200, Section 4.2.

License Amendment Request Attachment 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Page 2 of 6 Docket No. 50-244 Description and Assessment

3. Enclosure 3 is not applicable since each PRA model used for the RICT Program is addressed using a standard endorsed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
4. Enclosure 4 provides appropriate justification for excluding sources of risk not addressed by the PRA models.
5. Enclosure 5 provides the plant-specific baseline core damage frequency (CDF) and large early release frequency (LERF) to confirm that the potential risk increases allowed under the RICT Program are acceptable.
6. Enclosure 6 is not applicable since the RICT Program is not being applied to shutdown modes.
7. Enclosure 7 provides a discussion of the licensees programs and procedures that assure the PRA models that support the RICT Program are maintained consistent with the as-built, as-operated plant.
8. Enclosure 8 provides a description of how the baseline PRA model, which calculates average annual risk, is evaluated and modified for use in the Real-Time Risk (RTR) tool to assess real-time configuration risk, and describes the scope of, and quality controls applied to, the RTR tool.
9. Enclosure 9 provides a discussion of how the key assumptions and sources of uncertainty in the PRA models were identified, and how their impact on the RICT Program was assessed and dispositioned.
10. Enclosure 10 provides a description of the implementing programs and procedures regarding the plant staff responsibilities for the RICT Program implementation, including risk management action (RMA) implementation.
11. Enclosure 11 provides a description of the implementation and monitoring program as described in NEI 06-09-A, Section 2.3.2, Step 7.
12. Enclosure 12 provides a description of the process to identify and provide RMAs.

Exelon is providing a regulatory commitment to include additional tornado missile protection to support the screening and the high winds penalty as provided in Enclosure 4.

2.3 Optional Changes and Variations Exelon is proposing variations from TSTF-505, Revision 2, or the applicable parts of the NRC staffs model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018, as described in subparagraph 5 below. These options were recognized as acceptable variations in TSTF-505 and the NRC staff's model safety evaluation.

In several instances, the Ginna TS use different numbering and titles than the Standard Technical Specifications (STS) on which TSTF-505 was based. These differences are

License Amendment Request Attachment 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Page 3 of 6 Docket No. 50-244 Description and Assessment administrative and do not affect the applicability of TSTF-505 to the Ginna TS. Only TS changes consistent with the Ginna design and TS are included. is a cross reference that provides a comparison between the NUREG-1431, Standard Technical Specifications Westinghouse Plants, Required Actions included in TSTF-505 and the Ginna Actions included in this license amendment request. The attachment includes a summary description of the referenced Required Actions, which is provided for information purposes only and is not intended to be a verbatim description of the Required Action. The cross reference in Attachment 4 identifies the following:

1. Ginna Actions that have identical numbers to the corresponding NUREG-1431 Required Actions are not deviations from TSTF-505, except for administrative deviations (if any) such as formatting. These deviations are administrative with no impact on the NRC's model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018.
2. Ginna Actions that have different numbering than the NUREG-1431 Required Actions are an administrative deviation from TSTF-505 with no impact on the NRC's model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018.
3. For NUREG-1431 Required Actions that are not contained in the Ginna TS, the corresponding TSTF-505 mark-ups for the Required Actions are not applicable to Ginna.

This is an administrative deviation from TSTF-505 with no impact on the NRC's model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018.

4. The model application provided in TSTF-505, Revision 2, includes an attachment for typed, camera-ready (revised) TS pages reflecting the proposed changes. Ginna is not including such an attachment due to the number of TS pages included in this submittal that have the potential to be affected by other unrelated license amendment requests and the straightforward nature of the proposed changes. Providing only mark-ups of the proposed TS changes satisfies the requirements of 10 CFR 50.90, "Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit," in that the mark-ups fully describe the changes desired. This is an administrative deviation from TSTF-505 with no impact on the NRC's model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018.

Because of this deviation, the contents and numbering of the attachments for this amendment request differ from the attachments specified in the model application in TSTF-505.

5. There are several plant-specific LCOs and associated Actions for which Ginna is proposing to apply the RICT Program that are variations from TSTF-505 as identified in Attachment 4 with additional justification provided below:

TS 3.3.5.A.1- One rad monitor inoperable. Per UFSAR Section 6.2.4.3, there is no loss of function if R-11 or R-12 become inoperable. These radiation monitors actuate Containment Ventilation Isolation (CVI), for the mini-purge valves. CVI serves as a backup to the Containment Isolation (CI) signal, and is not specifically credited in the accident analysis.

License Amendment Request Attachment 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Page 4 of 6 Docket No. 50-244 Description and Assessment TS 3.4.11.C.2 and TS 3.4.11.D.2 - Two PORV block valves inoperable. The current completion time to terminate the loss of function is 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. Because this situation is comprised of such a set of low probability occurrences (both block valves inoperable, manual operation of a PORV needed to mitigate an RCS overpressure event, and the failure of the PORV to reclose following operation), a probabilistic calculation could show acceptable delta risk for a longer time period than 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.

TS 3.5.1.A.1 and TS 3.5.1.B.1 - One accumulator inoperable. For a large break cold leg LOCA, one accumulator is assumed to spill out the break, while the other provides the required core cooling. Therefore, having one inoperable accumulator constitutes a loss of function for this particular scenario. Because this is such a low probability event, a probabilistic calculation could indicate that an accumulator could be inoperable for longer than the current action completion times with acceptable delta risk results.

TS 3.6.3.E.2 - One or two mini-purge penetration flowpaths with two valves not within the leakage limits. As long as Action E.1 is successful (show overall containment leakage is low in the current configuration), there is no loss of function.

TS 3.6.6.D.1 - One or two CRFC units inoperable. Table 6.2-16 of the UFSAR lists the assumed number of containment fan coolers and containment spray pumps assumed in the limiting large break analysis for containment conditions. These correspond to a minimum of 2 CRFCs (out of 4) and 1 containment spray pump (out of 2).

TS 3.7.1.A.1 - One or more MSSVs inoperable - Analysis has demonstrated that the required valve combinations needed to mitigate the limiting Design Basis Accident or an ATWS event are 8/8 MSSVs, or 7/8 MSSVs and1/2 ARVs, or 6/8 MSSVs and 2/2 ARVs.

Thus inoperability of a MSSV by itself does not constitute a loss of safety function.

TS 3.8.7.B.2 - Class 1E CVT for AC Instrument Bus B inoperable. The use of Constant Voltage Transformers (CVTs) is below the level of detail in TSTF-505. However, because there exists a non-Class 1E CVT to power Instrument Bus B, there is no loss of function and this is therefore an appropriate application of RICT.

Exelon has determined that the application of a RICT for these Ginna plant-specific LCOs is consistent with TSTF-505, Revision 2, and with the NRC's model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018. Application of a RICT for these plant-specific LCOs will be controlled under the RICT Program. The RICT Program provides the necessary administrative controls to permit extension of Completion Times and thereby delay reactor shutdown or remedial actions, if risk is assessed and managed within specified limits and programmatic requirements. The specified safety function or performance levels of TS required structures, systems or components (SSCs) are unchanged, and the remedial actions, including the requirement to shut down the reactor, are also unchanged; only the Completion Times are extended by the RICT Program.

Application of a RICT will be evaluated using the methodology and probabilistic risk guidelines contained in NEI 06-09-A, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines," which was approved by

License Amendment Request Attachment 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Page 5 of 6 Docket No. 50-244 Description and Assessment the NRC on May 17, 2007 (ADAMS Accession No. ML071200238). The NEI 06-09-A, methodology includes a requirement to perform a quantitative assessment of the potential impact of the application of a RICT on risk, to reassess risk due to plant configuration changes, and to implement compensatory measures and risk management actions (RMAs) to maintain the risk below acceptable regulatory risk thresholds. In addition, the NEI 06-09-A, methodology satisfies the five key safety principles specified in Regulatory Guide 1.177, "An Approach for Plant-Specific, Risk-Informed Decision making: Technical Specifications," dated August 1998 (ADAMS Accession No. ML003740176), relative to the risk impact due to the application of a RICT.

Therefore, the proposed application of a RICT in the Ginna plant-specific Actions is consistent with TSTF-505, Revision 2, and with the NRC staffs model safety evaluation dated November 21, 2018.

Exelon has reviewed these changes and determined that they do not affect the applicability of TSTF-505, Revision 2, to the Ginna TS.

3.0 REGULATORY ANALYSIS

3.1 No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) has evaluated the proposed changes to the TS using the criteria in 10 CFR 50.92 and has determined that the proposed changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration.

R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (Ginna) requests adoption of an approved change to the standard technical specifications (STS) and plant-specific technical specifications (TS), to modify the TS requirements related to Completion Times for Required Actions to provide the option to calculate a longer, risk-informed Completion Time. The allowance is described in a new program in Chapter 5, "Administrative Controls," entitled the "Risk-Informed Completion Time Program."

As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), an analysis of the issue of no significant hazards consideration is presented below:

1. Do the proposed changes involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed changes permit the extension of Completion Times provided the associated risk is assessed and managed in accordance with the NRC approved Risk-Informed Completion Time Program. The proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability of an accident previously evaluated because the changes involve no change to the plant or its modes of operation. The proposed changes do not increase the consequences of an accident because the design-basis mitigation function of the affected systems is not changed and the consequences of an accident during the

License Amendment Request Attachment 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Page 6 of 6 Docket No. 50-244 Description and Assessment extended Completion Time are no different from those during the existing Completion Time.

Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2. Do the proposed changes create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed changes do not change the design, configuration, or method of operation of the plant. The proposed changes do not involve a physical alteration of the plant (no new or different kind of equipment will be installed).

Therefore, the proposed changes do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

3. Do the proposed changes involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No.

The proposed changes permit the extension of Completion Times provided that risk is assessed and managed in accordance with the NRC approved Risk-Informed Completion Time Program. The proposed changes implement a risk-informed configuration management program to assure that adequate margins of safety are maintained. Application of these new specifications and the configuration management program considers cumulative effects of multiple systems or components being out of service and does so more effectively than the current TS.

Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based on the above, Exelon concludes that the proposed changes present no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and, accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.

3.2 Conclusions In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commissions regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

License Amendment Request Attachment 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Page 7 of 6 Docket No. 50-244 Description and Assessment 4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION The proposed changes would change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 CFR 20, or would change an inspection or surveillance requirement. However, the proposed changes do not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed changes meet the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).

Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed changes.

The 7 day Completion Time may be applied as discussed in Example 1.3-2. However, the licensee may elect to apply the Risk Informed Completion Time Program which permits calculation of a Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT) that may be used to complete the Required Action beyond the 7 day Completion Time. The RICT cannot exceed 30 days. After the 7 day Completion Time has expired, the subsystem must be restored to OPERABLE status within the RICT or Condition B must also be entered.

The Risk Informed Completion Time Program requires recalculation of the RICT to reflect changing plant conditions. For planned changes, the revised RICT must be determined prior to implementation of the change in configuration. For emergent conditions, the revised RICT must be determined within the time limits of the Required Action Completion Time (i.e., not the RICT) or 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> after the plant configuration change, whichever is less.

If the 7 day Completion Time clock of Condition A has expired and subsequent changes in plant condition result in exiting the applicability of the Risk Informed Completion Time Program without restoring the inoperable subsystem to OPERABLE status, Condition B is also entered and the Completion Time clocks for Required Actions B.1 and B.2 start.

If the RICT expires or is recalculated to be less than the elapsed time since the Condition was entered and the inoperable subsystem has not been restored to OPERABLE status, Condition B is also entered and the Completion Time clocks for Required Actions B.1 and B.2 start. If the inoperable subsystems are restored to OPERABLE status after Condition B is entered, Condition A is exited, and therefore, the Required Actions of Condition B may be terminated.

The program shall include the following:

a. The RICT may not exceed 30 days;
b. A RICT may only be utilized in MODES 1 and 2;
c. When a RICT is being used, any change to the plant configuration, as defined in NEI 06-09-A, Appendix A, must be considered for the effect on the RICT.
1. For planned changes, the revised RICT must be determined prior to implementation of the change in configuration.
2.

3. Revising the RICT is not required If the plant configuration change would lower plant risk and would result in a longer RICT.
d. For emergent conditions, if the extent of condition evaluation for inoperable structures, systems, or components (SSCs) is not complete prior to exceeding the Completion Time, the RICT shall account for the increased possibility of common cause failure (CCF) by either:
1. Numerically accounting for the increased possibility of CCF in the RICT calculation; or
2. Risk Management Actions (RMAs) not already credited in the RICT calculation shall be implemented that support redundant or diverse SSCs that perform the function(s) of the inoperable SSCs, and, if practicable, reduce the frequency of initiating events that challenge the function(s) performed by the inoperable SSCs.
e. The risk assessment approaches and methods shall be acceptable to the NRC. The plant PRA shall be based on the as-built, as-operated, and maintained plant; and reflect the operating experience at the plant, as specified in Regulatory Guide 1.200, Revision 2. Methods to assess the risk from extending the Completion Times must be PRA methods used to support License Amendment No. [XXX], or other methods approved by the NRC for generic use; and any change in the PRA methods to assess risk that are outside these approval boundaries require prior NRC approval.

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 A.1 Condition A applies to all RTS protection functions. Condition A addresses the situation where one required channel for one or more Functions is inoperable or if both source range channels are inoperable. The Required Action is to refer to Table 3.3.1-1 and to take the Required Actions for the protection functions affected. The Completion Times are those from the referenced Conditions and Required Actions.

When the number of inoperable channels in a trip Function exceed those specified in all related Conditions associated with a trip Function, then the plant is outside the safety analysis.

Therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be immediately entered if the trip Function is applicable in the current MODE of operation. This essentially applies to the loss of more than one channel of any RTS Function except with respect to Condition H.

B.1 Condition B applies to the Manual Reactor Trip Function in MODE 1 or 2 and in MODES 3, 4, and 5 with the CRD system capable of rod withdrawal or all rods not fully inserted. With one channel inoperable, the inoperable channel must be restored to OPERABLE status within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />, or within the RICT. In this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE channel is adequate to perform the required safety function.

The Completion Time of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is These COMPLETION TIMES are reasonable considering that there are two automatic actuation trains and another manual initiation channel OPERABLE, and the low probability of an event occurring during this interval.

C.1, C.2, and C.3 If the Manual Reactor Trip Function cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the allowed 48 hour5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> Completion Time of Condition B, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, action must be initiated within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to ensure that all rods are fully inserted, and the Control Rod Drive System must be placed in a condition incapable of rod withdrawal within 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />. The Completion Times provide adequate time to exit the MODE of Applicability from full power operation in an orderly manner without challenging plant systems based on operating experience.

D.1 Condition D applies to the following reactor trip Functions:

  • Power Range Neutron Flux-High;
  • Power Range Neutron Flux-Low; R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.3.1-30 Revision 61

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1

  • Overtemperature T;
  • Overpower T;
  • Pressurizer Pressure-High;
  • Pressurizer Water Level-High; and
  • SG Water Level-Low Low.

With one channel inoperable, the channel must be restored to OPERABLE status or placed in the tripped condition within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or within the RICT. Placing the channel in the tripped condition results in a partial trip condition. For the Power Range Neutron Flux-High, Power Range Neutron Flux-Low, Overtemperature T, and Overpower T functions, this results in a one-out-of-three logic for actuation. For the Pressurizer Pressure-High and Pressurizer Water Level-High Functions, this results in a one-out-of two logic for actuation. For the SG Water Level-Low Low Function, this results in a one-out-of-two logic per each affected SG for actuation. The 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> allowed to place the inoperable channel in the tripped condition is consistent with Reference 9.

Alternatively, a COMPLETION TIME can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

The Required Actions have been modified by a Note that allows placing the inoperable channel in the bypass condition for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> while performing surveillance testing of other channels.

This includes placing the inoperable channel in the bypass condition to allow setpoint adjustments of other channels when required to reduce the setpoint in accordance with other Technical Specifications. This 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is applied to each of the remaining OPERABLE channels.

The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> time limit is consistent with Reference 9.

E.1 and E.2 Condition E applies to the Intermediate Range Neutron Flux trip Function when THERMAL POWER is below 6% RTP and one channel is inoperable. Below the P-10 setpoint, the NIS intermediate range detector performs a monitoring and protection function. With one NIS intermediate range channel inoperable, 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> is allowed to either reduce THERMAL POWER below 5E-11amps or increase THERMAL POWER above 8% RTP. If THERMAL POWER is greater than the P-10 setpoint, the NIS power range detectors perform the monitoring and protection functions and the intermediate range is not required. The Completion Times allow for a slow and controlled power adjustment above 8% RTP or below 5E-11amps and take into account the redundant capability afforded by the redundant OPERABLE channel, and the low probability of its failure during this period. This action does not require the inoperable channel to be tripped because the Function uses one-out- of-two logic. Tripping one channel would trip the reactor.

Thus, the Required Actions specified in this Condition are only applicable when channel inoperability does not result in reactor trip.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.3.1-31 Revision 61

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 K.1 Condition K applies to the following reactor trip Functions:

  • Pressurizer Pressure-Low;
  • Reactor Coolant Flow-Low (Two Loops);
  • RCP Breaker Position (Two Loops);
  • Undervoltage-Bus 11A and 11B; and
  • Underfrequency-Bus 11A and 11B.

With one channel inoperable, the inoperable channel must be restored to OPERABLE status or placed in the tripped condition within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or within the RICT. Placing the channel in the tripped condition results in a partial trip condition requiring only one additional channel to initiate a reactor trip. The 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> allowed to place the channel in the tripped condition is consistent with Reference 9 if the inoperable channel cannot be restored to OPERABLE status. Alternatively, a COMPLETION TIME can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

Allowance of this time interval takes into consideration the redundant capability provided by the remaining redundant OPERABLE channel(s), and the low probability of occurrence of an event during this period that may require the protection afforded by the Functions associated with Condition K.

For the Reactor Coolant Flow-Low (Two Loops) Function, Condition K applies on a per loop basis. For the RCP Breaker Position (Two Loops) Function, Condition K applies on a per RCP basis. For Undervoltage-Bus 11A and 11B and underfrequency-Bus 11A and 11B, Condition K applies on a per bus basis. This allows one inoperable channel from each loop, RCP, or bus to be considered on a separate condition entry basis.

The Required Actions have been modified by a Note that allows placing the inoperable channel in the bypassed condition for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> while performing surveillance testing of the other channels. The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> time limit is consistent with Reference 9. The 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is applied to each of the remaining OPERABLE channels.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.3.1-34 Revision 61

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 L.1 If the Required Action and Completion Time of Condition K is not met, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be placed in MODE 1 < 8.5% RTP at which point the Function is no longer required. An alternative is not provided for increasing THERMAL POWER above the P-8 setpoint for the Reactor Coolant Flow-Low (Two Loops) and RCP Breaker Position (Two Loops) trip Functions since this places the plant in Condition M. The Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 1 < 8.5% RTP from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

M.1 Condition M applies to the Reactor Coolant Flow-Low (Single Loop) reactor trip Function.

Condition M applies on a per loop basis. With one channel per loop inoperable, the inoperable channel must be restored to OPERABLE status or placed in the tripped condition within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or within the RICT. The 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> allowed to restore the channel to OPERABLE status or place in trip is consistent with Reference 9. Alternatively, a COMPLETION TIME can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

The Required Actions have been modified by a Note that allows placing the inoperable channel in the bypassed condition for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> while performing surveillance testing of the other channels. The 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is applied to each of the two OPERABLE channels. The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> time limit is consistent with Reference 9.

N.1 Condition N applies to the RCP Breaker Position (Single Loop) trip Function. Condition N applies on a per loop basis. There is one breaker position device per RCP breaker. With one channel per RCP inoperable, the inoperable channel must be restored to OPERABLE status within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or within the RICT. The 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> allowed to restore the channel to OPERABLE status is consistent with Reference 9. Alternatively, a COMPLETION TIME can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

O.1 If the Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition M or N is not met, the plant must be placed in a MODE where the Functions are not required to be OPERABLE. To achieve this status, THERMAL POWER must be reduced to < 30% RTP within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. The Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is consistent with Reference 9.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.3.1-35 Revision 61

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 P.1 Condition P applies to Turbine Trip on Low Autostop Oil Pressure or on Turbine Stop Valve Closure in MODE 1 above the P-9 setpoint. With one channel inoperable, the inoperable channel must be restored to OPERABLE status or placed in the tripped condition within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or within the RICT. If placed in the tripped Condition, this results in a partial trip condition requiring only one additional channel to initiate a reactor trip. The 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> allowed to place the inoperable channel in the tripped condition is consistent with Reference 9. Alternatively, a CT can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

The Required Actions have been modified by a Note that allows placing the inoperable channel in the bypassed condition for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> while performing surveillance testing of the other channels. The 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is applied to each remaining OPERABLE channel. The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> time limit is consistent with Reference 9.

Q.1, Q.2.1, and Q.2.2 If the Required Action and Associated Completion Time of Condition P are not met, the plant must be placed in a MODE where the Turbine Trip Functions are no longer required to be OPERABLE.

To achieve this status, THERMAL POWER must be reduced to < 50% RTP within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. The Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is consistent with Reference 9.

The Steam Dump system must also be verified OPERABLE within 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br /> or THERMAL POWER must be reduced to < 8% RTP. This ensures that either the secondary system or RCS is capable of handling the heat rejection following a reactor trip. The Completion Times are reasonable considering the need to perform the actions in an orderly manner and the low probability of an event occurring in this time.

R.1 Condition R applies to the SI Input from ESFAS reactor trip and the RTS Automatic Trip Logic in MODES 1 and 2. With one train inoperable, 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, or within the RICT, is allowed to restore the train to OPERABLE status. These Completion Times of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to restore the train to OPERABLE status is are reasonable considering that in this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE train is adequate to perform the safety function and given the low probability of an event during this interval.

The Required Action has been modified by a Note that allows bypassing one train up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for surveillance testing, provided the other train is OPERABLE.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.3.1-36 Revision 61

RTS Instrumentation B 3.3.1 S.1 and S.2 Condition S applies to the P-6, P-7, P-8, P-9, and P-10 permissives. With one channel inoperable, the associated interlock must be verified to be in its required state for the existing plant condition within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> or the associated RTS channel(s) must be declared inoperable. These actions are conservative for the case where power level is being raised. Verifying the interlock status manually accomplishes the interlock's Function. The Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is based on operating experience and the minimum amount of time allowed for manual operator actions.

T.1 Condition T applies to the RTBs in MODES 1 and 2. With one train inoperable, it must be restored to OPERABLE status within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, or within the RICT 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is allowed to restore the train to OPERABLE status. These 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> Completion Times is are based on operating experience and the minimum amount of time allowed for manual operator actions.

The Required Action has been modified by two Notes. Note 1 allows one train to be bypassed for up to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> for surveillance testing, provided the other train is OPERABLE. Note 2 allows one RTB to be bypassed for up to 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> for maintenance on undervoltage or shunt trip mechanisms if the other RTB train is OPERABLE. The 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> for maintenance is in addition to the 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> for surveillance testing (e.g., if a RTB fails 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> into its testing window, it must be restored within 6 additional hours (or 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br /> from start of test)).

U.1 and U.2 Condition U applies to the RTB Undervoltage and Shunt Trip Mechanisms (i.e., diverse trip features) in MODES 1 and 2. Condition U applies on a RTB basis. This allows one diverse trip feature to be inoperable on each RTB. However, with two diverse trip features inoperable (i.e.,

one on each of two different RTBs), at least one diverse trip feature must be restored to OPERABLE status within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />. The Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is reasonable considering the low probability of an event occurring during this time interval.

With one trip mechanism for one RTB inoperable, it must be restored to an OPERABLE status within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />, or within the RICT.

ESFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.2 B.1 Condition B applies to the AFW-Trip of Both MFW Pumps ESFAS Function. If a channel is inoperable, 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> or within the RICT is allowed to return it to OPERABLE status. These specified Completion Times of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is are reasonable considering the nature of this Function, the available redundancy, and the low probability of an event occurring during this interval.

C.1 If the Required Action and Completion Time of Condition B is not met, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 2 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. The allowed Completion time is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 2 from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

D.1 Condition D applies to the following ESFAS Functions:

  • Manual Initiation of SI;
  • Manual Initiation of Steam Line Isolation; and
  • AFW-Undervoltage-Bus 11A and 11B.

If a channel is inoperable, 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> or within the RICT is allowed to restore it to OPERABLE status.

These specified Completion Times of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is are reasonable considering that there are two automatic actuation trains and another manual initiation channel OPERABLE for each manual initiation Function, additional AFW actuation channels available besides the Undervoltage- Bus 11A and 11B AFW Initiation Function, and the low probability of an event occurring during this interval.

E.1 Condition E applies to the automatic actuation logic and actuation relays for the following ESFAS Functions:

  • Steam Line Isolation;

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.3.2-26 Revision 42

ESFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.2 Condition E addresses the train orientation of the protection system and the master and slave relays. If one train is inoperable, a Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is allowed to restore the train to OPERABLE status. This Completion Time is reasonable considering that there is another train OPERABLE, and the low probability of an event occurring during this time interval. The Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is consistent with Reference 7. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

F.1 Condition F applies to the following Functions:

  • Steam Line Isolation-Containment Pressure-High High;
  • Steam Line Isolation-High Steam Flow Coincident With Safety Injection and Coincident With Tavg -Low;
  • Steam Line Isolation-High-High Steam Flow Coincident With Safety Injection;
  • AFW-SG Water Level-Low Low.

Condition F applies to Functions that typically operate on two-out-of-three logic. Therefore, failure of one channel places the Function in a two-out- of-two configuration. One channel must be tripped to place the Function in a one-out-of-two configuration that satisfies redundancy requirements.

If one channel is inoperable, a Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is allowed to restore the channel to OPERABLE status or to place it in the tripped condition. Placing the channel in the Tripped condition conservatively compensates for the inoperability, restores capability to accommodate a single failure, and allows operation to continue.

The Required Actions are modified by a Note that allows the inoperable channel to be bypassed for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for surveillance testing of other channels. This 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> applies to each of the remaining OPERABLE channels.

The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

H.1 Condition H applies to the following ESFAS functions:

  • Manual Initiation of CS; and
  • Manual Initiation of Containment Isolation.

If a channel is inoperable, 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is allowed to restore it to OPERABLE status.

I.1 Condition I applies to the automatic actuation logic and actuation relays for the following Functions:

  • Containment Isolation.

Condition I addresses the train orientation of the protection system and the master and slave relays.

ESFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.2 J.1 Condition J applies to the following Functions:

  • SI-Containment Pressure-High; and
  • CS-Containment Pressure-High High.

Condition J applies to Functions that operate on a two-out-of-three logic (for CS-Containment Pressure-High High there are two sets of this logic). Therefore, failure of one channel places the Function in a two-out-of-two configuration. One channel must be tripped to place the Function in a one-out-of-two configuration that satisfies redundancy requirements.

If one channel is inoperable, a Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is allowed to restore the channel to OPERABLE status or place it in the tripped condition. Placing the channel in the tripped condition conservatively compensates for the inoperability, restores capability to accommodate a single failure, and allows operation to continue.

The Required Action is modified by a Note that allows the inoperable channel to be bypassed for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for surveillance testing of other channels. The 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> applies to each of the remaining OPERABLE channels.

Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

K.1 If the Required Actions and Completion Times of Conditions H, I, or J are not met, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

L.1 Condition L applies to the following Functions:

  • SI-Pressurizer Pressure-Low; and
  • SI-Steam Line Pressure-Low.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.3.2-29 Revision 42

ESFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.2 Condition L applies to Functions that operate on a two-out-of-three logic. Therefore, failure of one channel places the Function in a two-out-of-two configuration. One channel must be tripped to place the Function in a one-out-of-two configuration that satisfies redundancy requirements.

If one channel is inoperable, a Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is allowed to restore the channel to OPERABLE status or place it in the tripped condition. Placing the channel in the tripped condition conservatively compensates for the inoperability, restores capability to accommodate a single failure, and allows operation to continue.

The Required Action is modified by a Note that allows the inoperable channel to be bypassed for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> for surveillance testing of other channels. The 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> applies to each of the remaining OPERABLE channels.

The Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to restore the inoperable channel or place it in trip, and the 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> allowed for surveillance testing is justified in Reference 7. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

M.1 If the Required Actions and Completion Times of Condition L are not met, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and pressurizer pressure reduced to < 2000 psig within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

N.1 Condition N applies if an AFW Manual Initiation channel is inoperable. If a manual initiation switch is inoperable, the associated AFW or SAFW pump must be declared inoperable and the applicable Conditions of LCO 3.7.5, "Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) System" must be entered immediately. Each AFW manual initiation switch controls one AFW or SAFW pump. Declaring the associated pump inoperable ensures that appropriate action is taken in LCO 3.7.5 based on the number and type of pumps involved.

LOP DG Start Instrumentation B 3.3.4 LOP or degraded power to the 480 V safeguards buses.

ACTIONS In the event a relay's trip setpoint is found to be nonconservative with respect to the CHANNEL CALIBRATION Acceptance Criteria, or the channel is found to be inoperable, then the channel must be declared inoperable and the LCO Condition entered as applicable.

A Note has been added in the ACTIONS to clarify the application of Completion Time rules. This Note states that separate Condition entry is allowed for each 480 V safeguards bus.

A.1 With one or more 480 V bus(es) with one channel inoperable, Required Action A.1 requires the inoperable channel(s) to be placed in trip within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> or in accordance with Risk Informed Completion Time Program. With an undervoltage channel in the tripped condition, the LOP DG start instrumentation channels are configured to provide a one-out-of- one logic to initiate a trip of the incoming offsite power for the respective bus. The remaining OPERABLE channel is comprised of one-out-of-two logic from the degraded and loss of voltage relays. Any additional failure of either of these two OPERABLE relays requires entry into Condition B.

B.1 Condition B applies to the LOP DG start Function when the Required Action and associated Completion Time for Condition A are not met or with one or more 480 V bus(es) with two channels of LOP start instrumentation inoperable.

Condition B requires immediate entry into the Applicable Conditions specified in LCO 3.8.1, "AC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4," or LCO 3.8.2, "AC Sources - MODES 5 and 6," for the DG made inoperable by failure of the LOP DG start instrumentation. The actions of those LCOs provide for adequate compensatory actions to assure plant safety.

SURVEILLANCE The Surveillances are modified by a Note to indicate that, when a channel is REQUIREMENTS placed in an inoperable status solely for performance of required Surveillances, entry into associated Conditions and Required Actions may be delayed for up to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, provided the second channel maintains trip capability. Upon completion of the Surveillance, or expiration of the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> allowance, the channel must be returned to OPERABLE status or the applicable Condition entered and Required Actions taken. This Note is based on the assumption that 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is the average time required to perform channel surveillance. Based on engineering judgement, the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> testing allowance does not R.E.

Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation B 3.3.5 ACTIONS The most common cause of channel inoperability is outright failure or drift of the bistable or process module sufficient to exceed the tolerance allowed by plant specific calibration procedures. Typically, the drift is found to be small and results in a delay of actuation rather than a total loss of function. This determination is generally made during the performance of a COT, when the process instrumentation is set up for adjustment to bring it within specification.

A channel is considered OPERABLE when:

a. The nominal trip setpoint is equal to or conservative with respect to the LSSS;
b. The absolute difference between the as-found trip setpoint and the previous as-left trip setpoint does not exceed the COT Acceptance Criteria; and
c. The as-left trip setpoint is within the established calibration tolerance band about the nominal trip setpoint.

The channel is still operable even if the as-left trip setpoint is non- conservative with respect to the LSSS provided that the as-left trip setpoint is within the established calibration tolerance band as specified in the Ginna Instrument Setpoint Methodology.

A Note has been added to the ACTIONS to clarify the application of Completion Time rules. The Conditions of this Specification may be entered independently for each Function listed in Table 3.3.5-1. The Completion Time(s) of the inoperable channel(s)/train(s) of a Function will be tracked separately for each Function starting from the time the Condition was entered for that Function.

A.1 Condition A applies to the failure of one containment ventilation isolation radiation monitor channel. Since the two containment radiation monitors measure different parameters, failure of a single channel may result in loss of the radiation monitoring Function for certain events.

Consequently, the failed channel must be restored to OPERABLE status. The 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> Completion Time, or the Completion Time determined in accordance with the RICT, allowed to restore the affected channel is justified by the low likelihood of events occurring during this interval, and recognition that one or more of the remaining channels will respond to most events.

Pressurizer PORVs B 3.4.11 both automatically opening and automaticaly closing. For these reasons, the block valve may either be closed to isolate the flowpaths or isolated by placing the PORV control switch in the closed position. However, if the block valve is closed to isolate the flowpath, the Action requires power be maintained to the valve. This Condition is only intended to permit operation of the plant for a limited period of time not to exceed the next refueling outage (MODE 6) so that maintenance can be performed on the PORVs to eliminate the problem. Normally, the PORVs should be available for automatic mitigation of overpressure events and should be returned to OPERABLE status prior to entering startup (MODE 2). Seat leakage problems are controlled by LCO 3.4.13, "RCS Operational LEAKAGE."

Quick access to the PORV for pressure control can be made when power remains on the closed block valve. The Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is based on plant operating experience that has shown that minor problems can be corrected or closure accomplished in this time period.

B.1, B.2, and B.3 If one PORV is not capable of being manually cycled, it is inoperable and must be either restored or isolated by closing the associated block valve and removing the power to the associated block valve. PORV inoperability includes (but is not limited to) the inability of the solenoid operated isolation valve from the nitrogen accumulator to open or the solenoid operated isolation valve from instrument air to vent. The Completion Times of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> are reasonable, based on challenges to the PORVs during this time period, and provide the operator adequate time to correct the situation. If the inoperable valve cannot be restored to OPERABLE status, it must be isolated within the specified time. Because there is a second PORV that is OPERABLE, 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> is provided to restore the inoperable PORV to OPERABLE status. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. If the PORV cannot be restored within this time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply, as required by Condition E.

C.1 and C.2 If one block valve is inoperable, then it is necessary to either restore the block valve to OPERABLE status within the Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> or place the associated PORV in manual control. The prime importance for the capability to close the block valve is to isolate a stuck open PORV. Therefore, if the block valve cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, the Required Action is to place the PORV in manual control to preclude its automatic opening for an overpressure event and to avoid the potential for a stuck open PORV at a time that the block valve is inoperable. Manual control is accomplished by placing the PORV control board switch in the closed position. The Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is reasonable, based on the small potential for challenges to the system during this time period, and provides the operator time to correct the situation.

Pressurizer PORVs B 3.4.11 and the small potential for an SGTR or other event requiring Manual operation, the operator is permitted a Completion Time of 7 days to restore the inoperable block valve to OPERABLE status. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. The time allowed to restore the block valve is limited to 7 days since the PORVs are not capable of automatically mitigating an overpressure event when placed in manual control. If the block valve is restored within the determined Completion Times of 7 days, the PORV will again be capable of automatically responding to an overpressure event, and the block valves capable of isolating a stuck open PORV which may result from the overpressure event. If it cannot be restored within this additional time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply, as required by Condition E.

D.1 and D.2 If both block valves are inoperable, then it is necessary to either restore at least one block valve to OPERABLE status within the Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> or place the PORVs in manual control.

The prime importance for the capability to close the block valve is to isolate a stuck open PORV.

Therefore, if the block valves cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, the Required Action is to place the PORVs in manual control to preclude its automatic opening for an overpressure event and to avoid the potential for a stuck open PORV at a time that the block valve is inoperable. Manual control is accomplished by placing the PORV control board switch in the closed position.

Because the PORV is not capable of automatically opening and the small potential for an SGTR or other event requiring Manual operation, the operator is permitted a Completion Time of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, or as permitted by RICT, to restore at least one inoperable block valve to OPERABLE status.

Accumulators B 3.5.1 APPLICABILITY In MODES 1 and 2, and in MODE 3 with RCS pressure > 1600 psig, the accumulator OPERABILITY requirements are based on full power operation. Although cooling requirements decrease as power decreases, the accumulators are still required to provide core cooling as long as elevated RCS pressures and temperatures exist.

This LCO is only applicable at pressures > 1600 psig. At pressures 1600 psig, the rate of RCS blowdown is such that the ECCS pumps can provide adequate injection to ensure that peak clad temperature remains below the 10 CFR 50.46 (Ref. 5) limit of 2200ºF.

In MODE 3, with RCS pressure 1600 psig, and in MODES 4, 5, and 6, the accumulator motor operated isolation valves are closed to isolate the accumulators from the RCS. This allows RCS cooldown and depressurization without discharging the accumulators into the RCS or requiring depressurization of the accumulators.

ACTIONS A.1 If the boron concentration of one accumulator is not within limits, it must be returned to within the limits within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. In this Condition, the ability to maintain subcriticality or minimum boron precipitation time may be reduced. The boron in the accumulators contributes to the assumption that the combined ECCS water in the partially recovered core during the early reflooding phase of a large break LOCA is sufficient to keep that portion of the core subcritical. One accumulator below the minimum boron concentration limit, however, will have no effect on available ECCS water and an insignificant effect on core subcriticality during reflood since the accumulator water volume is very small when compared to RCS and RWST inventory. Boiling of ECCS water in the core during reflood concentrates boron in the saturated liquid that remains in the core. In addition, current analysis techniques demonstrate that the accumulators are not expected to discharge following a large steam line break. Even if they do discharge, their impact is minor and not a design limiting event. Thus, 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or within the RICT is allowed to return the boron concentration to within limits.

B.1 If one accumulator is inoperable for a reason other than boron concentration, the accumulator must be returned to OPERABLE status within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. In this Condition, the required contents of one accumulator cannot be assumed to reach the core during a LOCA. Due to the severity of the consequences should a LOCA occur in these conditions, the 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> Completion Time to open the valve, remove R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.5.1-5 Revision 44

Accumulators B 3.5.1 power to the valve, or restore the proper water volume or nitrogen cover pressure ensures that prompt action will be taken to return the inoperable accumulator to OPERABLE status. The Completion Time minimizes the potential for exposure of the plant to a LOCA under these conditions.

The 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> allowed to restore an inoperable accumulator to OPERABLE status is justified in WCAP-15049-A, Rev. 1 (Ref. 10). Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

C.1 and C.2 If the accumulator cannot be returned to OPERABLE status within the associated Completion Time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and pressurizer pressure reduced to 1600 psig within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

D.1 If both accumulators are inoperable, the plant is in a condition outside the accident analyses; therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered immediately.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.5.1.1 REQUIREMENTS Each accumulator motor-operated isolation valve shall be verified to be fully open. Use of control board indication for valve position is an acceptable verification. This verification ensures that the accumulators are available for injection and ensures timely discovery if a valve should be less than fully open. If an isolation valve is not fully open, the rate of injection to the RCS would be reduced. Although a motor operated valve position should not change with power removed, a closed valve could result in not meeting accident analyses assumptions. The Surveillance Frequency is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program.

ECCS - MODES 1, 2, and 3 B 3.5.2 In MODES 4, 5 and 6, plant conditions are such that the probability of an event requiring ECCS injection is extremely low. Mode 4 core cooling requirements are addressed by LCO 3.4.6, "RCS Loops - MODE 4," and LCO 3.5.3, "ECCS - MODE 4." Core cooling requirements in MODE 5 are addressed by LCO 3.4.7, "RCS Loops - MODE 5, Loops Filled," and LCO 3.4.8, "RCS Loops -

MODE 5, Loops Not Filled." MODE 6 core cooling requirements are addressed by LCO 3.9.4, "Residual Heat Removal (RHR) and Coolant Circulation-Water Level 23 Ft," and LCO 3.9.5, "Residual Heat Removal (RHR) and Coolant Circulation-Water Level < 23 Ft."

ACTIONS A.1 With one train inoperable and at least 100% of the ECCS flow equivalent to a single OPERABLE ECCS train available, the inoperable components must be returned to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time is based on an NRC reliability evaluation (Ref. 12) and is a reasonable time for repair of many ECCS components. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

An ECCS train is inoperable if it is not capable of delivering 100% design flow to the RCS.

Individual components are inoperable if they are not capable of performing their design function.

The LCO requires the OPERABILITY of a number of independent subsystems. Due to the redundancy of trains and the diversity of subsystems, the inoperability of one active component in a train does not render the ECCS incapable of performing its function. Neither does the inoperability of two different components, each in a different train, necessarily result in a loss of function for the ECCS. The intent of this Condition is to maintain a combination of equipment such that 100% of the ECCS flow equivalent to a single OPERABLE ECCS train remains available. This allows increased flexibility in plant operations under circumstances when components in opposite trains are inoperable.

In the case where SI Pump C is inoperable, both RCS cold leg injection lines must be OPERABLE to provide 100% of the ECCS flow equivalent to a single train of SI due to the location of check valves 870A and 870B.

An event accompanied by a loss of offsite power and the failure of an EDG can disable one ECCS train until power is restored. A reliability analysis (Ref. 2) has shown that the impact of having one full ECCS train inoperable is sufficiently small to justify continued operation for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.

Containment Air Locks B 3.6.2 Additionally, the affected air lock must be restored to OPERABLE status within the 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> Completion Time or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. The specified time period is considered reasonable for restoring an inoperable air lock to OPERABLE status, assuming that at least one door is maintained closed in each affected air lock and the containment overall leakage rate is acceptable.

D.1 and D.2 If the inoperable containment air lock cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the required Completion Time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.6.2.1 REQUIREMENTS Maintaining containment air locks OPERABLE requires compliance with the leakage rate test requirements of the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program. This SR reflects the leakage rate testing requirements with regard to air lock leakage (Type B leakage tests). The acceptance criteria were established based on industry experience. The periodic testing requirements verify that the air lock leakage does not exceed the allowed fraction of the overall containment leakage rate. The Frequency is as required by the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program.

The SR has been modified by two Notes. Note 1 states that an inoperable air lock door does not invalidate the previous successful performance of the overall air lock leakage test. This is considered reasonable since either air lock door is capable of providing a fission product barrier in the event of a DBA. Note 2 requires that the results of this SR be evaluated against the acceptance criteria of the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program. This ensures that air lock leakage is properly accounted for in determining the overall containment leakage rate.

Containment Isolation Boundaries B 3.6.3 A.1 In the event one containment isolation boundary in one or more penetration flow paths is inoperable (except for mini-purge valve leakage not within limit), the affected penetration flow path must be isolated. The method of isolation must include the use of at least one isolation boundary that cannot be adversely affected by a single active failure (including a single human error). For automatic valves, this requires two independent means to prevent the valve from re-opening. Isolation boundaries that meet this criterion are a closed and de-activated automatic valve, a closed manual valve, a blind flange, and a check valve with flow through the valve secured. For a penetration flow path isolated in accordance with Required Action A.1, the boundary used to isolate the penetration should be the closest available one to containment.

Required Action A.1 must be completed within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time. These 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> Completion Times is are reasonable, considering the time required to isolate the penetration and the relative importance of supporting containment OPERABILITY during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4.

A.2 For affected penetration flow paths that cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> Completion Time and that have been isolated in accordance with Required Action A.1, the affected penetration flow paths must be verified to be isolated on a periodic basis. This is necessary to ensure that containment penetrations required to be isolated following an accident and no longer capable of being isolated following a single failure will be in the isolation position should an event occur. This Required Action does not require any testing or device manipulation. Rather, it involves verification, through a system walkdown, that those isolation boundaries capable of being mispositioned are in the correct position. The Completion Time of "once per 31 days for isolation boundaries outside containment" is appropriate considering the fact that the boundaries are operated under administrative controls and the probability of their misalignment is low. For the isolation boundaries inside containment, the time period specified as "prior to entering MODE 4 from MODE 5 if not performed within the previous 92 days" is based on engineering judgment and is considered reasonable in view of the inaccessibility of the isolation boundaries and other administrative controls that will ensure that isolation boundary misalignment is an unlikely possibility.

Required Action A.2 is modified by a Note that applies to isolation boundaries located in high radiation areas and allows these boundaries to be verified closed by use of administrative means (e.g., ensuring that all valve manipulations in these areas have been independently verified).

Allowing verification by administrative means is considered acceptable, since access to these areas is typically restricted. Therefore, the probability of misalignment of these boundaries, once they have been verified to be in the proper position, is small.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.6.3-7 Revision 64

Containment Isolation Boundaries B 3.6.3 Condition A is modified by a Note indicating that this Condition is only applicable to those penetration flowpaths which do not use a closed system as a containment isolation boundary. For those penetrations which do use a closed system, Condition C provides the appropriate actions.

B.1 With two containment isolation boundaries in one or more penetration flow paths inoperable (except for mini-purge valve leakage not within limit), the affected penetration flow path must be isolated within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />. The method of isolation must include the use of at least one isolation boundary that cannot be adversely affected by a single active failure (including a single human error). For automatic valves, this requires two independent means to prevent the valve from re-opening. Isolation boundaries that meet this criterion are a closed and de-activated automatic valve, a closed manual valve, and a blind flange. Check valves and closed systems are not acceptable isolation boundaries in this instance since they cannot be assured to meet the design requirements of a normal containment isolation boundary. The 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> Completion Time is consistent with the ACTIONS of LCO 3.6.1.

Following completion of Required Action B.1, verification that the affected penetration flow path remains isolated must be performed in accordance with Required Action A.2.

Condition B is modified by a Note indicating that this Condition is only applicable to penetration flow paths which do not use a closed system as containment isolation boundary. For those penetrations which do use a closed system, Condition C provides the appropriate actions.

C.1 With one or more penetration flow paths with one containment isolation boundary inoperable, the inoperable boundary must be restored to OPERABLE status or the affected penetration flow path must be isolated. The method of isolation must include the use of at least one isolation barrier that cannot be adversely affected by a single active failure (including a single human error). For automatic valves, this requires two independent means to prevent the valve from re-opening.

Isolation barriers that meet this criterion are a closed and de-activated automatic valve, a closed manual valve, and a blind flange. A check valve may not be used to isolate the affected penetration flow path. Required Action C.1 must be completed within the 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. The specified time period is reasonable considering the relative stability of the closed system (hence, reliability) to act as a penetration isolation boundary and the relative importance of maintaining containment integrity during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.6.3-8 Revision 64

CS, CRFC and NaOH Systems B 3.6.6 APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, a DBA could cause a release of radioactive material to containment and an increase in containment pressure and temperature requiring the operation of the CS System, CRFC System and NaOH System.

In MODES 5 and 6, the probability and consequences of these events are reduced due to the pressure and temperature limitations of these MODES. Thus, the CS System, CRFC System and NaOH System are not required to be OPERABLE in MODES 5 and 6.

ACTIONS A.1 With one CS train inoperable, the inoperable CS train must be restored to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. In this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE spray and CRFC units are adequate to perform the iodine removal and containment cooling functions. These 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Times takes into account the redundant heat and iodine removal capability afforded by the CRFCs, reasonable time for repairs, and low probability of a DBA occurring during this period.

B.1 With the NaOH System inoperable, OPERABLE status must be restored within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. The pH adjustment of the Containment Spray System flow for corrosion protection and iodine removal enhancement is reduced in this condition. The Containment Spray System would still be available and would remove some iodine from the containment atmosphere in the event of a DBA. The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> completion time takes into account the redundant flow path capabilities and the low probability of the worst case DBA occurring during this period.

C.1 and C.2 If the inoperable CS train or the NaOH System cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the required Completion Time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 84 hours9.722222e-4 days <br />0.0233 hours <br />1.388889e-4 weeks <br />3.1962e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 3 from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems. The extended interval to reach MODE 5 allows additional time for attempting restoration of the inoperable component(s) and is reasonable when considering the driving force for a release of radioactive material from the Reactor Coolant System is reduced in MODE 3.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.6.6-7 Revision 76

CS, CRFC and NaOH Systems B 3.6.6 D.1 With one or two CRFC units inoperable, the inoperable CRFC unit(s) must be restored to OPERABLE status within 7 days or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. The inoperable CRFC units provided up to 100% of the containment heat removal needs. These 7 day Completion Times is are justified considering the redundant heat removal capabilities afforded by combinations of the CS System and CRFC System and the low probability of DBA occurring during this period.

E.1 and E.2 If the Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition D of this LCO are not met, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

F.1 With two CS trains inoperable, or three or more CRFC units inoperable, the plant is in a condition outside the accident analysis. Therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered immediately.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.6.6.1 REQUIREMENTS The applicable SR descriptions from Bases 3.5.2 apply. This SR is required since the OPERABILITY of valves 896A and 896B is also required for the CS System.

SR 3.6.6.2 R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.6.6-8 Revision 77 10

MSSVs B 3.7.1 ACTIONS The ACTIONS table is modified by a Note indicating that separate Condition entry is allowed for each MSSV.

A.1 With one or more MSSVs inoperable, the assumptions used in the accident analysis for loss of external load may no longer be valid and the safety valve(s) must 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 within the RICT. This Condition specifically addresses the appropriate ACTIONS to be taken in the event that a non-significant discrepancy related to the MSSVs is discovered with the plant operating in MODES 1, 2, or 3. Examples of this type of discrepancy include administrative (e.g., documentation of inspection results) or similar deviations which do not result in a loss of MSSV capability to relieve steam. These 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> Completion Times allows a reasonable period of time for correction of administrative only problems or for the plant to contact the NRC to discuss appropriate action. These 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> Completion times are is based on engineering judgement.

This Condition is not applicable to a situation in which the ability of a MSSV to open or reclose is questionable. In this event, this Condition is no longer applicable and Condition B of this LCO should be entered immediately since no corrective actions can be implemented during MODES 1, 2, and 3.

B.1 and B.2 If the MSSV(s) cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the associated Completion Time, the plant must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, and in MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.7.1-3 Revision 58

MSIVs and Non-Return Check Valves B 3.7.2 ACTIONS A.1 With one or more valves inoperable in flow path from a SG in MODE 1, ACTION must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. Some repairs to these valves can be made with the plant under hot conditions.

The 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> Completion Times are is reasonable, considering the low probability of an accident occurring during this time period that would require a closure of the MSIVs and non-return check valves and the ability to isolate the affected SG by turbine stop valves.

These 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> Completion Times are is greater than that normally allowed for containment isolation boundaries because the MSIVs are valves that isolate a closed system penetrating containment. These valves differ from most other containment isolation boundaries in that the closed system provides an additional means for containment isolation. Failure of this closed system can only result from a SGTR which is not postulated to occur with any other DBA (e.g.,

LOCA).

B.1 If the MSIV and/or non-return check valve from a SG cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, the plant must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be placed in MODE 2 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and Condition C would be entered.

The Completion Time is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 2 in an orderly manner without challenging plant systems.

C.1 and C.2 Since the MSIVs and non-return check valve are required to be OPERABLE in MODES 2 and 3, the inoperable valve(s) may either be restored to OPERABLE status or the associated MSIV closed. When closed, the MSIVs are already in the position required by the assumptions in the safety analysis and the non-return check valve is no longer required.

The 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> Completion Time is consistent with that allowed in Condition A.

For inoperable valves that cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the specified Completion Time, but the associated MSIV is closed, the MSIV must be verified on a periodic basis to be closed. This is necessary to ensure that the assumptions in the safety analysis remain valid. The 7 day Completion Time is reasonable, based on engineering judgement, in view of MSIV status indications available in the control room, and other administrative controls, to ensure that these valves are in the closed position.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.7.2-4 Revision 58

ARVs B 3.7.4 APPLICABILITY In MODES 1 and 2, and in MODE 3 with RCS average temperature 500ºF, the ARV lines are required to be OPERABLE.

In MODE 3 with RCS average temperature < 500ºF, and in MODE 4, the ARVs are not required since the saturation pressure of the reactor coolant is below the lift settings of the MSSVs. In MODE 5 or 6, an SGTR is not a credible event since the water in the SGs is below the boiling point and RCS pressure is low.

ACTIONS A.1 With one ARV line inoperable, ACTION must be taken to restore the valve to OPERABLE status within 7 days or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. These 7 day Completion Times allows for the redundant capability afforded by the remaining OPERABLE ARV line and a nonsafety grade backup in the steam dump system.

B.1 If the ARV line cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the associated Completion Time, the plant must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be placed in at least MODE 3 with RCS average temperature < 500ºF within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

The allowed Completion Time is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

C.1 If both ARV lines are inoperable, the plant is in a condition outside of the accident analyses for a SGTR event; therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered immediately.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.7.4-3 Revision 69

AFW System B 3.7.5 The SAFW Pump Building room coolers are required to be OPERABLE. If one room cooler is inoperable, the associated SAFW train is inoperable.

APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, and 3, the AFW System is required to be OPERABLE in the event that it is called upon to function when the MFW System is lost. In addition, the AFW System is required to supply enough makeup water to replace the lost SG secondary inventory as the plant cools to MODE 4 conditions.

In MODE 4, 5, or 6, the SGs are not normally used for heat removal, and the AFW System is not required.

ACTIONS A.1 If one of the TDAFW train flow paths is inoperable, action must be taken to restore the flow path to OPERABLE status within 7 days or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. These 7 day Completion Times are is reasonable, based on the following reasons:

a. The redundant OPERABLE turbine driven AFW pump flow path;
b. The availability of redundant OPERABLE MDAFW and SAFW pumps; and
c. The low probability of an event occurring that requires the inoperable TDAFW pump flow path.

A TDAFW train flow path is defined as the steam supply line and SG injection line from/to the same SG.

B.1 If one MDAFW train is inoperable, action must be taken to restore the train to OPERABLE status within 7 days or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. These 7 day Completion Times are is reasonable, based on the following reasons:

a. The redundant OPERABLE MDAFW train;
b. The availability of redundant OPERABLE TDAFW and SAFW pumps; and
c. The low probability of an event occurring that requires the inoperable MDAFW train.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.7.5-5 Revision 75

AFW System B 3.7.5 C.1 With the TDAFW train inoperable, or both MDAFW trains inoperable, or one TDAFW train flow path and one MDAFW train inoperable to opposite SGs, action must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. If the inoperable MDAFW train supplies the same SG as the inoperable TDAFW flow path, Condition D must be entered.

The combination of failures which requires entry into this Condition all result in the loss of one train (or one flow path) of preferred AFW cooling to each SG such that redundancy is lost. These 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Times are is reasonable, based on redundant capabilities afforded by the SAFW System, time needed for repairs, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this time period.

Condition C is modified by a Note which prohibits the application of LCO 3.0.4.b with a TDAFW train inoperable, or both MDAFW trains inoperable, or one TDAFW train flow path and one MDAFW train inoperable to opposite SGs. There is an increased risk associated with entering a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability with a TDAFW train inoperable, or both MDAFW trains inoperable, or one TDAFW train flow path and one MDAFW train inoperable to opposite SGs consequently the provisions of LCO 3.0.4.b, which allow entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability with the LCO not met after performance of a risk assessment addressing inoperable systems and components, should not be applied in these circumstances.

D.1 With all AFW trains to one or both SGs inoperable, action must be taken to restore at least one train or TDAFW flow path to each affected SG 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 in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

The combination of failures which require entry into this Condition all result in the loss of preferred AFW cooling to at least one SG. If a SGTR were to occur in this condition, preferred AFW is potentially unavailable to the unaffected SG. If AFW is unavailable to both SGs, the accident analyses for small break LOCAs and loss of MFW would not be met.

The two MDAFW trains of the preferred AFW System are normally used for decay heat removal during low power operations since air operated bypass control valves are installed in each train to better control SG level (see Figure B 3.7.5-1). Since a feedwater transient is more likely during reduced power conditions, 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is provided to restore at least one train of additional preferred AFW before requiring a controlled cooldown. This will also provide time to find a condensate source other than the SW System for the SAFW System if all three AFW trains are inoperable.

These 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> Completion Times are is reasonable, based on redundant capabilities afforded by the SAFW System, time needed for repairs, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this time period.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.7.5-6 Revision 75

AFW System B 3.7.5 Condition D is modified by a Note which prohibits the application of LCO 3.0.4.b with all AFW trains to one or both SGs inoperable. There is an increased risk associated with entering a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability with all AFW trains to one or both SGs inoperable and the provisions of LCO 3.0.4.b, which allow entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability with the LCO not met after performance of a risk assessment addressing inoperable systems and components, should not be applied in these circumstances.

E.1 With one SAFW train inoperable, action must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 14 days or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. This Condition includes the inoperability of one of the two SAFW cross-tie valves which requires declaring the associated SAFW train inoperable (e.g., failure of 9703B would result in declaring SAFW train D inoperable).

However, the inoperability of either flow path downstream of the SAFW cross-tie is addressed by Condition F. These 14 day Completion Times are is reasonable, based on redundant capabilities afforded by the AFW System, time needed for repairs, and the low probability of a HELB or other event which would require the use of the SAFW System during this time period.

F.1 With both SAFW trains inoperable, action must be taken to restore at least one SAFW train to OPERABLE status within 7 days or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. This Condition includes the inoperability of both of the SAFW cross-tie valves (9703A and 9703B) or the inoperability of either flow path down stream of the SAFW cross-tie. These 7 day Completion Times are is reasonable, based on redundant capabilities afforded by the AFW System, time needed for repairs, and the low probability of a HELB or other event which would require the use of the SAFW System during this time period.

G.1 and G.2 When Required Action A.1, B.1, C.1, D.1, E.1, or F.1 cannot be completed within the required Completion Time, the plant must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be placed in at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, and in MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant condition from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

b. LCO 3.5.2, "ECCS - MODES 1, 2, and 3,"
c. LCO 3.5.3, "ECCS - MODE 4,"
d. LCO 3.9.4, "RHR and Coolant Circulation - Water Level 23 Ft,"

and

e. LCO 3.9.5, "RHR and Coolant Circulation - Water Level < 23 Ft."

The CCW piping inside containment for the reactor coolant pumps (RCPs) and the reactor support coolers also serves as a containment isolation boundary. This is addressed by LCO 3.6.3, "Containment Isolation Boundaries."

The CCW system radiation detector (R-17) is not required to be OPERABLE for this LCO since the CCW system outside containment is not required to be a closed system.

The isolation of CCW from other components or systems not required for safety may render those components or systems inoperable but does not affect the OPERABILITY of the CCW System.

APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the CCW System is a normally operating system, which must be capable to perform its post accident safety functions. The failure to perform this safety function could result in the loss of reactor core cooling and containment integrity during the recirculation phase following a LOCA.

In MODE 5 or 6, the OPERABILITY requirements of the CCW System are determined by LCO 3.4.7, LCO 3.4.8, LCO 3.9.4, and LCO 3.9.5.

ACTIONS A.1 If one CCW train is inoperable, action must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. In this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE CCW train is adequate to perform the heat removal function. However, the overall reliability is reduced because a single failure in the OPERABLE CCW train could result in loss of CCW function. These 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Times are is reasonable, based on the redundant capabilities afforded by the OPERABLE train, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this period.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.7.7-4 Revision 58

SW System B 3.7.8 The SW piping inside containment for the CRFCs and the reactor compartment coolers also serves as a containment isolation boundary. This is addressed under LCO 3.6.3, "Containment Isolation Boundaries."

APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the SW System is a normally operating system which must be capable of performing its post accident safety functions. The failure to perform this safety function could result in the loss of reactor core cooling during the recirculation phase following a LOCA or loss of containment integrity following a SLB.

In MODES 5 and 6, the OPERABILITY requirements of the SW system are determined by LCO 3.7.7 and LCO 3.8.2.

ACTIONS A.1 If one SW pump is inoperable, action must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 14 days or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. In this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE SW pumps are more than adequate to perform the heat removal function.

However, the overall reliability is reduced because a single failure of the opposite electrical train could result in loss of SW System function. These 14 day Completion Times are is based on the redundant capabilities afforded by the OPERABLE pumps, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this time period.

B.1 If two SW pumps are inoperable, action must be taken to restore at least one of the inoperable pumps to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or within the RICT. In this condition, the remaining OPERABLE SW pumps are adequate to perform the heat removal function. However, any single failure of the remaining pumps would result in a loss of SW System function in a DBA. These 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion times are is based on the reliability of the remaining two pumps and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this time period. To ensure the possibility of a common cause failure mode is not present to reduce the reliability of the remaining pumps, further actions may be required. Specifically, if one SW pump is inoperable due to equipment failure, and a second SW pump fails before the first pump is returned to service, an evaluation of possible common cause and determination of the operability of the remaining pumps shall be performed within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of the second failure (commitment per Reference 5).

AC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.1 using the same example as above, the 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or within the RICT Completion Time for restoring RHR pump B was developed assuming that RHR pump A had both offsite and onsite standby emergency power available). Therefore, a penalty is assessed to only allow 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> in this configuration.

The Completion Time for Required Action A.1 is intended to allow the operator time to evaluate and repair any discovered inoperabilities. This Completion Time is an exception to the normal "time zero" for beginning the allowed outage time "clock." In this Required Action the Completion Time only begins on discovery that:

a. There is no offsite power available to one or more 480 V safeguards bus; and
b. A redundant required feature is inoperable on a second 480 V safeguards bus.

If at any time during the existence of Condition A, a redundant required feature becomes inoperable, this Completion Time begins to be tracked. Required Action A.1 can be exited if the inoperable DG or the required feature on the OPERABLE DG is restored to OPERABLE status.

The level of degradation during Condition A means that the offsite electrical power system does not have the capability to effect a safe shutdown and to mitigate the effects of an accident; however, the onsite standby AC sources have not been degraded. This level of degradation generally corresponds to either:

a. Loss of offsite power sources to SAT 12A and/or SAT 12B;
b. Failure of SAT 12A or 12B or 4.16 kV Bus 12A or 12B; or
c. Failure of a station service transformer supplying a 480 V safeguards bus.

With a total loss of the offsite power sources to SAT 12A and 12B, the offsite electrical power system does not have the capability to effect a safe shutdown and to mitigate the effects of an accident for either train. With loss of offsite power to SAT 12A or 12B, failure of SAT 12A or 12B, or failure of Bus 12A or 12B, the offsite electrical power system does not have the capability to effect a safe shutdown and to mitigate the effects of an accident for a single AC electrical train.

With a failure of a station service transformer, the offsite electrical power system does not have the capability to effect a safe shutdown and to mitigate the consequences of an accident for one 480 V safeguards bus in one AC electrical train. In all cases, sufficient onsite AC sources are available to maintain the plant in a safe shutdown condition in the event of a DBA or transient. In fact, a simultaneous loss of offsite AC sources, a LOCA, and a worst case single failure were postulated as a part of the design basis in the safety analysis. Thus, the 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time provides a period of time to R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.8.1-8 Revision 74

AC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.1 The Completion Time of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to declare the required safety features inoperable is based on the fact that it is less than the Completion Time for restoring OPERABILITY of the DG and all safety features supported by the DG. A shorter Completion Time is provided since the required safety features have been potentially degraded by the inoperable DG. Therefore, a penalty is assessed to only allow 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> in this configuration. Additionally, the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> Completion Time takes into account the capacity and capability of the remaining AC sources, a reasonable time for repairs, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this period. Required Action B.2 can be exited if the inoperable DG or the required feature on the OPERABLE DG is restored to OPERABLE status.

B.3.1 and B.3.2 Required Action B.3.1 provides an allowance to avoid unnecessary testing of the OPERABLE DG. If it can be determined within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> that the cause of the inoperable DG does not exist on the OPERABLE DG, SR 3.8.1.2 is not required to be performed. If the cause of inoperability is determined to exist on the other DG, the second DG would be declared inoperable upon discovery and Condition E would be entered. Once the failure is repaired, the common cause failure no longer exists, and Required Action B.3.1 is satisfied. If the cause of the initial inoperable DG cannot be confirmed not to exist on the second DG within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />, performance of SR 3.8.1.2 suffices to provide assurance of continued OPERABILITY of that DG.

In the event the inoperable DG is restored to OPERABLE status prior to completing either B.3.1 or B.3.2, activities must continue to evaluate the common cause possibility. This continued evaluation, however, is no longer under the 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> constraint imposed while in Condition B.

The 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> Completion Time is reasonable to confirm that the OPERABLE DG is not affected by the same problem as the inoperable DG (Ref. 8).

B.4 With one inoperable DG, the remaining OPERABLE DG and the offsite circuit are adequate to supply electrical power to the onsite 480 V safeguards buses. The 7 day Completion Time takes into account the capacity and capability of the remaining AC sources, a reasonable time for repairs, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this period. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.8.1-10 Revision 74

AC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.1 C.1 and C.2 With offsite power to one or more 480 V safeguards bus(es) and one DG inoperable, redundancy is lost in both the offsite and onsite AC electrical power systems. Since power system redundancy is provided by these two diverse sources of power, the AC power sources are only degraded and no loss of safety function has occurred since at least one DG and potentially one offsite AC power source are available. However, the plant is vulnerable to a single failure which could result in the loss of multiple safety functions. Therefore, a Completion Time of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> or within the RICT is provided to either restore the offsite power circuit or the DG to OPERABLE status.

This Completion Time is less than that for an inoperable offsite power source or an inoperable DG due to the single failure vulnerability of this configuration.

As discussed in LCO 3.0.6, the AC electrical power distribution subsystem ACTIONS would not be entered even if all AC sources to either train were inoperable, resulting in de-energization.

Therefore, the Required Actions of this Condition are modified by a Note which states that the Required Actions of LCO 3.8.9, "Distribution Systems - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4" must also be immediately entered with no AC power source to one distribution train. This allows Condition C to provide requirements for the loss of an offsite power circuit and one DG, without regard to whether a train is de-energized. LCO 3.8.9 provides the appropriate restrictions for a de-energized train.

D.1 and D.2 If the inoperable AC electric power sources cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the required Completion Time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

E.1 If both DGs are inoperable, a loss of safety function would exist if offsite power were unavailable; therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.8.1-11 Revision 74

DC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.4 ACTIONS A.1 With one DC electrical power source inoperable, OPERABILITY must be restored within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />.

In this Condition, redundancy is lost and only one train is capable to completely respond to an event. If one of the required DC electrical power sources is inoperable, the remaining DC electrical power source has the capacity to support a safe shutdown and to mitigate an accident condition. A subsequent worst case single failure would, however, result in the complete loss of the remaining 125 VDC electrical power distribution subsystem with attendant loss of ESF functions. The 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> or within the RICT Completion Time reflects a reasonable time to assess plant status as a function of the inoperable DC electrical power subsystem and, if the DC electrical power source is not restored to OPERABLE status, to prepare to effect an orderly and safe plant shutdown.

B.1 and B.2 If the inoperable DC electrical power source cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the required Completion Time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

C.1 If both DC electrical power sources are inoperable, a loss of multiple safety functions exists; therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be immediately entered.

AC Instrument Bus Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.7 ACTIONS A.1, A.2, and A.3 With an inverter inoperable, its associated AC instrument bus becomes inoperable until it is re-energized from either its Class 1E or non-Class 1E CVT.

Required Action A.1 allows the instrument bus to be powered from either its associated Class 1E CVT or from a non-Class 1E CVT. For Instrument Buses A and C, the non-Class 1E power is supplied by a non- safety related motor control center (MCC A) which is supplied by 480 V Bus 13.

The Completion Time of 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> is consistent with LCO 3.8.9, "Distribution Systems - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4."

Required Action A.2 is intended to limit the amount of time that the instrument bus can be connected to a non-Class 1E power supply. The 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> Completion Time is based upon engineering judgement, taking into consideration the time required to repair the Class 1E CVT or the inverter and the additional risk to which the plant is exposed because of the connection to a non-Class 1E power supply.

Required Action A.3 allows 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> to fix the inoperable inverter and restore it to OPERABLE status. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. These 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Times are is based upon engineering judgment, taking into consideration the time required to repair an inverter and the additional risk to which the plant is exposed because of the inverter inoperability. This must be balanced against the risk of an immediate shutdown, along with the potential challenges to safety systems such a shutdown might entail. When the AC instrument bus is powered from its CVT, it is relying upon interruptible AC electrical power sources (offsite and onsite). The uninterruptible, battery backed inverter source to the AC instrument buses is the preferred source for powering instrumentation trip setpoint devices.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.8.7-4 Revision 41 13

AC Instrument Bus Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.7 B.1 and B.2 With the Class 1E CVT for Instrument Bus B inoperable, the instrument bus becomes inoperable until it is re-energized from its non-Class 1E CVT. Required Action B.1 requires Instrument Bus B to be powered from its non-Class 1E CVT within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. The non-Class 1E power is supplied by a nonsafety related 480 V motor control center (MCC A) which is supplied by 480 V Bus 13.

Required Action B.2 is intended to limit the amount of time that Instrument Bus B can be connected to a non-Class 1E power supply. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program. These 7 day limits are is based on engineering judgement, taking into consideration the time required to repair the Class 1E CVT and the additional risk to which the plant is exposed because of the Class 1E CVT inoperability.

This must be balanced against the risk of an immediate shutdown, along with the potential challenges to safety systems such a shutdown might entail. When Instrument Bus B is powered from its non- Class 1E CVT, it is relying upon interruptible offsite AC electrical power sources.

The Class 1E, diesel generator backed, CVT to Instrument Bus B is the preferred power source for powering instrumentation trip setpoint devices.

C.1 and C.2 If the inoperable devices or components cannot be restored to OPERABLE status or other Required Actions are not completed within the required Completion Time of Condition A or B, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

D.1 If two or more required AC instrument bus power sources are inoperable, the plant is in a condition outside the accident analyses; therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered immediately. This Condition must be entered when both inverters, or one or more inverters and the Class 1E CVT to Instrument Bus B are discovered to be inoperable.

Distribution Systems - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.9 The trains as specified in Table B 3.8.9-1 identify the major AC, DC, and AC instrument bus electrical power distribution subsystem components. A train is defined to begin from the boundary of the power source for the respective subsystem (as defined in the power source LCOs), and continues up to the isolation device for the supplied safety related or ESF component (e.g., safety injection pump). The isolation device for the supplied safety related or ESF component is only considered part of the train when the device is not capable of opening to isolate the failed component from the train (e.g., breaker unable to open an overcurrent). Otherwise, the failure of the isolation device to close to provide power to the component is addressed by the respective component's LCO. The isolation device for nonsafety related components are considered part of the train since these devices must be available to protect the safety related functions. Therefore, the train boundary essentially ends at the motor control center, distribution panel, or bus which supplies multiple components.

The inoperability of any component within the above defined train boundaries renders the train inoperable.

APPLICABILITY The electrical power distribution subsystems are required to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 to ensure that:

a. Acceptable fuel design limits and reactor coolant pressure boundary limits are not exceeded as a result of AOOs or abnormal transients; and
b. Adequate core cooling is provided, and containment OPERABILITY and other vital functions are maintained in the event of a postulated DBA.

Electrical power distribution subsystem requirements for MODES 5 and 6 are addressed in LCO 3.8.10, "Distribution Systems - MODES 5 and 6."

ACTIONS A.1 With one AC electrical power distribution train inoperable, the remaining AC electrical power distribution train is capable of supporting the minimum safety functions necessary to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition. The overall reliability is reduced, however, because a single failure in the remaining AC power distribution train could result in the minimum required ESF functions not being supported. Therefore, the required AC buses, motor control centers, and distribution panels which comprise a train must be restored to OPERABLE status within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> or in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.8.9-6 Revision 68

Distribution Systems - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.9 The worst case Condition A scenario is one train without AC power (i.e., no offsite power to the train and the associated DG inoperable). In this Condition, the plant is more vulnerable to a complete loss of AC power.

The Completion Time for restoring the inoperable train before requiring a plant shutdown is limited to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> because of:

a. The potential for decreased safety if the plant operator's attention is diverted from the evaluations and actions necessary to restore power to the affected train; and
b. The potential for an event in conjunction with a single failure of a redundant component in the OPERABLE train with AC power which results in the loss of multiple safety functions.

B.1 With one AC instrument bus electrical power distribution train inoperable, the remaining OPERABLE AC instrument bus train is capable of supporting the minimum safety functions necessary to shut down the plant and maintain it in the safe shutdown condition. Overall reliability is reduced, however, because a single failure in the remaining AC instrument bus train could result in the minimum ESF functions not being supported. Therefore, the AC instrument bus train must be restored to OPERABLE status within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

Condition B represents one AC instrument bus train without power which includes the potential loss of both the DC source and the associated AC sources to the instrument bus. In this situation, the plant is significantly more vulnerable to a complete loss of all noninterruptible power.

Therefore, the Completion Time is limited to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> due to the potential vulnerabilities. Taking exception to LCO 3.0.2 for components without adequate 120 VAC power, that would have Completion Times shorter than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> if declared inoperable, is acceptable because of:

a. The potential for decreased safety by requiring a change in plant conditions (i.e., requiring a shutdown) and not allowing stable operations to continue;
b. The potential for decreased safety by requiring entry into numerous Applicable Conditions and Required Actions for components without adequate 120 VAC power and not providing sufficient time for the operators to perform the necessary evaluations and actions for restoring power to the affected train; and R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant B 3.8.9-7 Revision 68

Distribution Systems - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 B 3.8.9

c. The potential for an event in conjunction with a single failure of a redundant component in the OPERABLE AC instrument bus train.

The 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> Completion Time takes into account the importance to safety of restoring the AC instrument bus train to OPERABLE status, the redundant capability afforded by the other OPERABLE instrument bus train, and the low probability of a DBA occurring during this period.

C.1 With one DC electrical power distribution train inoperable, the remaining DC electrical power distribution train is capable of supporting the minimum safety functions necessary to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition. The overall reliability is reduced, however, because a single failure in the remaining DC electrical power distribution train could result in the minimum required ESF functions not being supported. Therefore, the required DC distribution panels must be restored to OPERABLE status within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. Alternatively, a Completion Time can be determined in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time Program.

Condition C represents one train without adequate DC power. In this situation, the plant is significantly more vulnerable to a complete loss of all DC power. Therefore, the Completion Time is limited to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> due to this potential vulnerability. Taking exception to LCO 3.0.2 for components without adequate DC power, which would have Completion Times shorter than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, is acceptable because of:

a. The potential for decreased safety by requiring a change in plant conditions (i.e., requiring a shutdown) and not allowing stable operations to continue;
b. The potential for decreased safety by requiring entry into numerous applicable Conditions and Required Actions for components without DC power and not providing sufficient time for the operators to perform the necessary evaluations and actions for restoring power to the affected train; and
c. The potential for an event in conjunction with a single failure of a redundant component in the OPERABLE train with DC power.

For a large break cold leg LOCA, one accumulator is assumed to spill out the break, while the other provides the required core cooling. Therefore, having one inoperable accumulator constitutes a loss of function for this particular scenario.

TS 3.3.2 Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS)

Instrumentation The Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) design creates defense-in-depth from the redundancy of the channels for the Actuation Function.

  • Trip Function has multiple channels.
  • Trip Function will cause an Actuation with 2/3 tripped channels.
  • A failed channel does cause or prevent a trip.

The Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) provides actuation of the following functions: safety injection, containment isolation, steam line isolation, containment spray and feedwater isolation, automatic diesel startup, and preferred auxiliary feedwater pump startup.

3. Loss of Power (LOP) Diesel Generator (DG) Start Instrumentation

Reference:

TS 3.3.4 Loss of Power (LOP) Diesel Generator (DG) Start Instrumentation The LOP DG design creates defense-in-depth from the redundancy of the channels for the Initiation Function.

  • The LOP DG start instrumentation consists of two channels on each of safeguards Buses 14, 16, 17, and 18.
  • Each channel contains one loss of voltage relay and one degraded voltage relay.

A one-out-of-two logic in both channels will cause the following actions on the associated safeguards bus:

a. trip of the normal feed breaker from offsite power;
b. trip of the bus-tie breaker to the opposite electrical train (if closed);
c. shed of all bus loads except the CS pump, component cooling water pump (if no safety injection signal is present), and safety related motor control centers; and
d. start of the associated DG.

The LOP DG start instrumentation is required for the ESF Systems to function in any accident with a loss of offsite power. Its design basis is that of the ESF Actuation System (ESFAS).

Undervoltage conditions which occur independent of any accident conditions result in the start and bus connection of the associated DG, but no automatic loading occurs.

Accident analyses credit the loading of the DG based on the loss of offsite power during a Design Basis Accident (DBA). The most limiting DBA of concern is the large break loss of coolant accident (LOCA) which requires ESF Systems in order to maintain containment integrity and protect fuel contained within the reactor vessel (Ref. 2). The detection and processing of an undervoltage condition, and subsequent DG loading, has been included in the delay time assumed for each ESF component requiring DG supplied power following a DBA and loss of offsite power.

The loss of offsite power has been assumed to occur coincident with the DBA accident analyses assumes the SI signal will actuate the DG within 2 seconds and that the DG will connect to the affected safeguards bus within an additional 10 seconds (12 seconds total time). If the loss of offsite power occurs before the SI signal parameters are reached, the accident analyses assumes the LOP DG start instrumentation will actuate the DG within 2.75 seconds and that the DG will connect to the affected safeguards bus within an additional 10 seconds (12.75 seconds total time).

License Amendment Request Attachment 5 Adopt TSTF-505 Risk Informed Completion Times Page 10 of 23 Information Supporting Redundancy and Diversity Regulatory Guide 1.174, Revision 2, Section 2.1.1 - Defense-in-Depth Defense-in-depth consists of several elements and consistency with the defense-in-depth philosophy is maintained if the following occurs:

  • A reasonable balance is preserved among prevention of core damage, prevention of containment failure, and consequence mitigation.

o Current Technical Specifications (TS) reflect this balance by allowing one channel to be placed in trip, while preserving the fundamental safety function of the applicable system.

Tripping an inoperable channel does not affect the number of channels required to provide the safety function.

  • Over-reliance on programmatic activities as compensatory measures associated with the change in the licensing basis is avoided.

o No programmatic activities are relied upon as compensatory measures when one channel of the applicable instrumentation is inoperable. The remaining operable channels for that function are fully capable of performing the safety function of the applicable system.

  • System redundancy, independence, and diversity are preserved commensurate with the expected frequency, consequences of challenges to the system, and uncertainties (e.g., no risk outliers).

o System redundancy, independence and diversity remain the same as in the as-designed condition. The number of operable functions has not been decreased (diversity), the number of minimum operable channels to perform the safety function has not been decreased, and the channels remain independent as originally designed, even with one channel inoperable.

  • Defenses against potential common-cause failures are preserved, and the potential for the introduction of new common-cause failure mechanisms is assessed.

o This LAR does not impact the original determination of common-cause failure for the applicable instrumentation and its functions. It may allow the allowed outage time to be extended for one channel in a function to be inoperable prior to placing the channel in trip. Placing the channel in trip fulfils one of the two required channels in trip needed to perform the safety function.

  • Independence of barriers is not degraded.

o Barriers are not affected by this LAR request.

  • Defenses against human errors are preserved.

o In the conditions listed in the TS, a potential extension of the allowed outage time does not change any personnel actions required when the TS Action is entered. Therefore, no change to the possibility of a human error is introduced and no change to the defenses against that potential human error have been altered.

License Amendment Request Attachment 5 Adopt TSTF-505 Risk Informed Completion Times Page 11 of 23 Information Supporting Redundancy and Diversity

  • The intent of the plants design criteria is maintained.

Regulatory Guide 1.32 - Use of IEEE Standard 308-1971, Criteria for Class IEE Electric Systems for Nuclear Power Generating Stations The availability of offsite power is discussed fully in UFSAR Chapter 8. The electrical power system was initially designed with a single station auxiliary transformer (12A) but a spare transformer (12B) was added after the beginning of commercial operation. The station auxiliary transformers are used to supply the normal auxiliary power during plant startup and shutdown.

During normal power operation, the station auxiliary transformers remain energized, essentially unloaded (except for supplying 1E loads), and plant auxiliary power is supplied from the main generator via the station unit transformer. With the plant not operating, and offsite power not available, the principal source of power for vital electrical loads is from the emergency diesel generators. For long-term outages of offsite power a backup source of power for the diesel generators is from the normally outgoing power feeder. Power can be brought in over this feeder to the station unit transformer by removing the flexible generator bus disconnects (links) to disconnect the main generator. This can be accomplished in a short time, (less than 8 hr) after which all the vital loads could be supplied from the unit auxiliary transformer. Because of the multiple immediate access power sources, the one delayed access power source conforms to Regulatory Guide 1.32 and General Design Criteria 17.

4. Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation

Reference:

TS 3.3.5 Containment Ventilation Isolation Instrumentation Containment ventilation isolation instrumentation closes the containment isolation valves in the Mini-Purge System and the Shutdown Purge System. This action isolates the containment atmosphere from the environment to minimize releases of radioactivity in the event of an accident.

The Containment Ventilation Isolation actuation design creates defense-in-depth from the redundancy of the channels for each Trip Function.

  • Each Trip Function has multiple channels
  • Each Trip Function will cause an isolation actuation.

Diverse inputs for Containment Ventilation Isolation Actuation (UFSAR Section 6.2.4.3)

  • Containment Ventilation Isolation o Containment Radiation Signal (from either of 2 Channels):

Gaseous 1/1 Particulate 1/1 o Containment Isolation - Manual Initiation o Containment Spray - Manual Initiation o Safety Injection The safety analyses assume that the containment remains intact with penetrations unnecessary for accident mitigation functions isolated early in the event, within approximately 60 seconds.

The isolation of the purge valves has not been analyzed mechanistically in the dose calculations, although its rapid isolation is assumed. The containment ventilation isolation radiation monitors act as backup to the containment isolation signal to ensure closing of the ventilation valves. They are also the primary means for automatically isolating containment in the event of a fuel handling accident during shutdown even though containment isolation is not specifically credited for this event. Containment isolation in turn ensures meeting the containment leakage rate assumptions of the safety analyses and ensures that the calculated accident offsite radiological doses are below 10 CFR 50.67 (Ref. 1) limits.

5. AC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4

Reference:

TS 3.8.1 AC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 The Electrical Power Systems AC Power Sources design creates defense-in-depth from the redundancy of power sources and configurations available.

The plant AC sources consist of an independent offsite power source and the onsite standby emergency power source. Atomic Industrial Forum (AIF) GDC 39 requires emergency power sources be provided and designed with adequate independence, redundancy, capacity, and testability to permit the functioning of the Engineered Safety Features (ESF) and protection systems.

o The offsite and onsite AC sources can each supply power to 480 V safeguards buses to ensure that reliable power is available during any normal or emergency mode of plant operation.

o The 480 V safeguards buses are divided into redundant trains so that the loss of any one train does not prevent the minimum safety functions from being performed.

Safeguards Buses 14 and 18 are associated with Train A and safeguards Buses 16 and 17 are associated with Train B.

o Since only the onsite standby power source is classified as Class 1E, the offsite power source is not required to be separated into redundant trains.

The independent offsite power source essentially begins from two station auxiliary transformers (SAT 12A and 12B) each supplied from an independent transmission line emanating from the same switchyard (see Figure B 3.8.1-1). SAT 12A is connected to the 115 kV transmission system (via 34.5 kV circuit 7T) and SAT 12B is connected to the 115 kV transmission system (via 34.5 kV circuit 767). The SATs may be configured in the following modes:

a. SAT 12A (or SAT 12B) supplies safeguards Buses 16 and 17 and SAT 12B (or SAT 12A) supplies safeguards Buses 14 and 18 (50/50 mode);
b. SAT 12A supplies all safeguards Buses (0/100 mode); or
c. SAT 12B supplies all safeguards Buses (100/0 mode).

The preferred configuration is the 50/50 mode; however, all three modes of operation meet applicable design requirements for normal operation. Offsite power can also be provided during an emergency through the plant auxiliary transformer 11 by backfeeding from the 115 kV transmission system and main transformer.

The onsite standby power sources consist of two 1950 kW continuous rating emergency diesel generators (DGs) connected to the safeguards buses to supply emergency power in the event of loss of all other AC power.

o In the event of loss of offsite power, or abnormal offsite power where offsite power is tripped as a consequence of bus undervoltage or degraded voltage, the DGs automatically start and tie to their respective buses.

o In the event of loss of offsite power, or abnormal offsite power where offsite power is tripped as a consequence of bus undervoltage or degraded voltage, the DGs automatically start and tie to their respective buses.

o In the event of a loss of offsite power and a coincident SI signal, the electrical loads are automatically connected to the DGs in sufficient time to provide for safe reactor shutdown and to mitigate the consequences of a Design Basis Accident (DBA).

  • A reasonable balance is preserved among prevention of core damage, prevention of containment failure, and consequence mitigation.

o The AC electrical power sources are designed to provide sufficient capacity, capability, redundancy, and reliability to ensure the availability of necessary power to ESF systems so that the fuel, Reactor Coolant System (RCS), and containment design limits are not exceeded. Current Technical Specifications (TS) reflect this balance. The first Completion Time to declare the required safety features inoperable is based on the fact that it is less than the Completion Time for restoring OPERABILITY. A shorter Completion Time is provided since the required safety features have been potentially degraded by the loss of offsite power is intended to allow the operator time to evaluate and repair any discovered inoperabilities. The first, shorter Completion time of the impacted Conditions is not changing with this LAR. The LAR will apply RICT to the actions for restoring equipment to operable status only. This completion time provides a period of time to effect restoration of the offsite circuit commensurate with the importance of maintaining an AC electrical power system capable of meeting its design criteria. Therefore, a reasonable balance is maintained.

  • Over-reliance on programmatic activities as compensatory measures associated with the change in the licensing basis is avoided.

o No programmatic activities are relied upon as compensatory measures when one power source is inoperable. The remaining operable sources for that function are fully capable of performing the safety function of the applicable system.

  • System redundancy, independence, and diversity are preserved commensurate with the expected frequency, consequences of challenges to the system, and uncertainties (e.g., no risk outliers).

o System redundancy, independence and diversity remain the same as in the as-designed condition. The number of operable power sources has not been decreased (diversity),

the number of minimum operable power sources to perform the safety function has not been decreased, and the channels remain independent as originally designed, even with one source inoperable.

  • Defenses against potential common-cause failures are preserved, and the potential for the introduction of new common-cause failure mechanisms is assessed.

o This LAR does not impact the original determination of common-cause failure for the applicable power sources. The change requested in the LAR does not physically change the applicable systems in any way. It only allows additional time, under certain low risk conditions in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT)

  • Independence of barriers is not degraded.

o Barriers are not affected by this LAR request.

  • Defenses against human errors are preserved.

o In the conditions listed in the TS, a potential extension of the allowed outage time does not change any personnel actions required when the TS Action is entered. Therefore, no change to the possibility of a human error is introduced and no change to the defenses against that potential human error have been altered.

6. DC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4

Reference:

TS 3.8.4 DC Sources - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 The Electrical Power Systems DC Power Sources design creates defense-in-depth from the redundancy of power sources available.

The station DC electrical power subsystem provides the AC emergency power system with control power. It also provides both motive and control power to selected safety related equipment and preferred AC instrument bus power (via inverters).

The 125 VDC electrical power system consists of two independent and redundant safety related Class 1E DC electrical power distribution train (Train A and Train B). Each subsystem consists of one 125 VDC battery, two battery chargers supplied from the 480 V system, distribution panels and buses, and all the associated control equipment and interconnecting cabling.

Each battery provides a separate source of DC power independent of AC power. There are four battery chargers available to the batteries, each with a capacity of 200 amps. Normally, only one battery charger is aligned to a battery while the second battery charger is maintained in standby.

Train A Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) equipment is supplied from battery A, while Train B ESF equipment is supplied from battery B. Additionally, the 480 V ESF switchgear and diesel generator (DG) control panels are supplied from either battery by means of an automatic transfer circuit in the switchgear and control panels. The normal supply from Train A (Buses 14 and 18 and DG A) is from DC distribution panels A. These panels also provide the emergency DC supply for Train B. Similarly, the normal supply from Train B (Buses 16 and 17 and DG B) is from DC distribution panels B. These panels also provide the emergency DC supply for Train A.

Regulatory Guide 1.174, Revision 2, Section 2.1.1 - Defense-in-Depth Defense-in-depth consists of several elements and consistency with the defense-in-depth philosophy is maintained if the following occurs:

  • A reasonable balance is preserved among prevention of core damage, prevention of containment failure, and consequence mitigation.

o The DC electrical power sources are designed to provide sufficient capacity, capability, redundancy, and reliability to ensure the availability of necessary power to ESF systems so that the fuel, Reactor Coolant System (RCS), and containment design limits are not exceeded. Current Technical Specifications (TS) reflect this balance. With one DC electrical power source inoperable, redundancy is lost and only one train is capable to completely respond to an event. If one of the required DC electrical power sources is inoperable, the remaining DC electrical power source has the capacity to support a safe shutdown and to mitigate an accident condition. A subsequent worst case single failure would, however, result in the complete loss of the remaining 125 VDC electrical power distribution subsystem with attendant loss of ESF functions. A Risk Informed Completion

License Amendment Request Attachment 5 Adopt TSTF-505 Risk Informed Completion Times Page 18 of 23 Information Supporting Redundancy and Diversity Time still reflects a reasonable time to assess plant status as a function of the inoperable DC electrical power subsystem and, if the DC electrical power source is not restored to OPERABLE status, to prepare to affect an orderly and safe plant shutdown. Therefore, a reasonable balance is maintained.

Reference:

TS 3.8.9 Distribution Systems - MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 The Electrical Power Distribution Systems design creates defense-in-depth from the redundancy of power sources and configurations available.

A source of electrical power is required for most safety related and nonessential action components. Two sources of electrical power are available, alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). Separate distribution systems are developed for each of these electrical power sources which are further divided and organized based on voltage considerations and safety classification.

o The Class 1E AC electrical power distribution subsystem is organized into two redundant and independent trains (Train A and Train B). Each train consists of two 480 V safeguards buses, distribution panels, motor control centers and load centers.

o The Class 1E DC electrical power distribution subsystem is organized into two redundant and independent trains (Train A and Train B). Each train consists of a Class 1E battery and two battery chargers which supply a main 125 VDC distribution panel.

o The AC instrument bus electrical power distribution subsystem consists of four 120 VAC instrument buses. The power source for one 120 VAC instrument bus (Instrument Bus D) is normally supplied from offsite power via a non-Class 1E constant voltage transformer (CVT) such that only three buses are considered safety related (A, B, and C) and supply a source of power to instrumentation and controls which are used to monitor and actuate the Reactor Protection System (RPS) and Engineered Safety Features (ESF) and other components.

o The AC electrical power sources are designed to provide sufficient capacity, capability, redundancy, and reliability to ensure the availability of necessary power to ESF systems so that the fuel, Reactor Coolant System (RCS), and containment design limits are not exceeded. Current Technical Specifications (TS) reflect this balance. With one electrical power distribution train inoperable, the remaining train is capable of supporting the minimum safety functions necessary to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition. The overall reliability is reduced, however, because a single failure in the remaining train could result in the minimum required ESF functions not being supported. Therefore, the required power distribution train must be restored to OPERABLE status within a determined Completion Time. This LAR will change this to a Risk Informed Completion Time to restore the train to OPERABLE status. The RICT will continue to balance against the vulnerability of a complete loss of power. Therefore, a reasonable balance is maintained with the RICT LAR.

  • Over-reliance on programmatic activities as compensatory measures associated with the change in the licensing basis is avoided.

o No programmatic activities are relied upon as compensatory measures when one train is inoperable. The remaining train is capable of supporting the minimum safety functions necessary to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition.

  • System redundancy, independence, and diversity are preserved commensurate with the expected frequency, consequences of challenges to the system, and uncertainties (e.g., no risk outliers).

o System redundancy, independence and diversity remain the same as in the as-designed condition.

  • Defenses against potential common-cause failures are preserved, and the potential for the introduction of new common-cause failure mechanisms is assessed.

o This LAR does not impact the original determination of common-cause failure for the applicable power distribution system trains.

Safety Guide 6 - Independence Between Redundant Standby (onsite) Power Sources and Between Their Distribution Systems The electrically powered safety systems are divided into two groups so that loss of either one will not prevent safety functions from being performed.

Each ac load group has a connection to the preferred (offsite) power source. In a situation where offsite power is not available, two diesel generators supply standby power to separate redundant load groups. There is no automatic connection between either the diesel generators or the load groups.

o The design criteria of the applicable systems are maintained as reflected in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR). Independence between redundant standby power sources is maintained with the requested change. The change requested in the LAR does not physically change the applicable systems in any way. It only allows additional time, under certain low risk conditions in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program, to perform actions that the NRC has previously determined to be acceptable.

The 125-V dc system is divided into two buses with one battery and two battery chargers (supplied from the 480-V system) serving each. The battery chargers supply the normal dc loads as well as maintaining proper charges on the batteries.

o The design criteria of the applicable systems are maintained as reflected in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR). Independence between redundant standby power sources is maintained with the requested change. The change requested in the LAR does not physically change the applicable systems in any way. It only allows additional time, under certain low risk conditions in accordance with the Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program, to perform actions that the NRC has previously determined to be acceptable.

List of Revised Required Actions to Corresponding PRA Functions

ENCLOSURE 1 List of Revised Required Actions to Corresponding PRA Functions

1. Introduction Section 4.0, Item 2 of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) Final Safety Evaluation (Reference 1) for NEI 06-09, Revision 0-A, Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines, (Reference 2) identifies the following needed content:
  • The License Amendment Request (LAR) will provide identification of the Time Sensitive (TS) Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) and action requirements to which the RMTS will apply.
  • The LAR will provide a comparison of the TS functions to the PRA modeled functions of the Structures, Systems, and Components (SSCs) subject to those LCO actions.
  • The comparison should justify that the scope of the PRA model, including applicable success criteria such as number of SSCs required, flow rate, etc., are consistent with licensing basis assumptions (i.e., 50.46 ECCS flowrates) for each of the TS requirements, or an appropriate disposition or programmatic restriction will be provided.

This enclosure provides confirmation that the Ginna Nuclear Power Plant PRA models include the necessary scope of SSCs and their functions to address each proposed application of the Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program to the proposed scope TS LCO Conditions, and provides the information requested for Section 4.0, Item 2 of the NRC Final Safety Evaluation. The scope of the comparison includes each of the TS LCO conditions and associated required actions within the scope of the RICT Program. The Ginna PRA model has the capability to model directly or through use of a bounding surrogate the risk impact of entering each of the TS LCOs in the scope of the RICT Program.

Table E1-1 below lists each TS LCO Condition to which the RICT Program is proposed to be applied and documents the following information regarding the TSs with the associated safety analyses, the analogous PRA functions and the results of the comparison:

- Column "Tech Spec Description": Lists all of the LCOs and condition statements within the scope of the RICT Program.

- Column "SSCs Covered by TS LCO Condition": The SSCs addressed by each action requirement.

- Column "Modeled in PRA": Indicates whether the SSCs addressed by the TS LCO Condition are included in the PRA.

- Column "Function Covered by TS LCO Condition": A summary of the required functions from the design basis analyses.

- Column "Design Success Criteria": A summary of the success criteria from the design basis analyses.

- Column "PRA Success Criteria": The function success criteria modeled in the PRA.

E1-1

ENCLOSURE 1 List of Revised Required Actions to Corresponding PRA Functions

- Column "Comments": Provides the justification or resolution to address any inconsistencies between the TS and PRA functions regarding the scope of SSCs and the success criteria. Where the PRA scope of SSCs is not consistent with the TS, additional information is provided to describe how the LCO condition can be evaluated using appropriate surrogate events. Differences in the success criteria for TS functions are addressed to demonstrate the PRA criteria provide a realistic estimate of the risk of the TS condition as required by NEI 06-09 Revision 0-A.

The corresponding SSCs for each TS LCO [4] and the associated TS functions [5] are identified and compared to the PRA. This description also includes the design success criteria and the applicable PRA success criteria. Any differences between the scope or success criteria are described in the table. Scope differences are justified by identifying appropriate surrogate events which permit a risk evaluation to be completed using the Configuration Risk Management Program (CRMP) tool for the RICT program. Differences in success criteria typically arise due to the requirement in the PRA standard to make PRAs realistic rather than bounding, whereas design basis criteria are necessarily conservative and bounding. The use of realistic success criteria is necessary to conform to capability Category II of the PRA standard as required by NEI 06-09 Revision 0-A.

Examples of calculated RICT are provided in Table E1-2 for each individual condition to which the RICT applies (assuming no other SSCs modeled in the PRA are unavailable). These example calculations demonstrate the scope of the SSCs covered by technical specifications modeled in the PRA. Following 4b implementation, the actual RICT values will be calculated using the actual plant configuration and the current revision of the PRA model representing the as-built, as-operated condition of the plant, as required by NEI 06-09, Revision 0-A and the NRC safety evaluation, and may differ from the RICTs presented.

Table E1-3 lists the TSTF-505 Rev 2 Table 1 Tech Specs that require additional justification along with a description of how the additional justification is provided in the LAR.

Table E1-4 Provides additional detail of PRA modeling of I&C functions. It includes a discussion of how digital equipment is modeled in the PRA.

License Amendment Request Enclosure 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket No: 50-244 List of Revised Required Actions to Corresponding PRA Functions Modeling of Instrumentation and Control This section addresses how I&C is modeled in the Ginna PRA Explicit PRA modeling The Ginna PRA explicitly models most ESFAS and Reactor trip signals (at the component and relay level) to reflect design logic of the systems. For example, if 2/3 design logic is required for LCO 3.3.1.D function 7b to initiate a reactor trip per design, then the fault tree logic also requires 2/3 inputs.

License Amendment Request Enclosure 1 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket No: 50-244 List of Revised Required Actions to Corresponding PRA Functions Surrogate PRA Modeling In specific cases where components are not explicitly modeled but the function is modeled, then surrogates may be chosen to represent equivalent or conservative logic of these system functions. Many ESFAS and RTS LCO functions are modeled as a Surrogate basic events.

For example, basic event TS3.3.2.I(1AB)X is modeled in the fault tree as Channel A of SI automatic actuation logic and relays inoperable (LCO 3.3.2, Condition I function 1b) which is logically equivalent to failure of one channel of the LCO function (SI-A1).

License Amendment Request Enclosure 2 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket No. 50-244 Information Supporting Consistency with Regulatory Guide 1.200

1. Introduction This enclosure provides information on the technical adequacy of the Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) Internal Events model (including internal flooding) and the GINNA Fire PRA model in support of the license amendment request to revise Technical Specifications to implement NEI 06-09, Revision 0-A, Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines [1].

Topical Report NEI 06-09, as clarified by the NRC final safety evaluation of this report [2],

defines the technical attributes of a PRA model and its associated Configuration Risk Management Program (CRMP) tool required to implement this risk-informed application.

Meeting these requirements satisfies Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.174 [3] requirements for risk-informed plant-specific changes to a plant's licensing basis.

Exelon employs a multi-faceted approach to establishing and maintaining the technical adequacy and fidelity of PRA models for all operating Exelon nuclear generation sites. This approach includes both a proceduralized PRA maintenance and update process and the use of self-assessments and independent peer reviews.

Section 2 of this enclosure describes requirements related to the scope of the Ginna PRA models. Section 3 addresses the technical adequacy of the Internal Events PRA for this application. Section 4 similarly addresses the technical adequacy of the Fire PRA for this application. Section 5 lists references used in the development of this enclosure.

All PRA models described below have been peer reviewed, and the review and closure of F&Os from the peer review have been independently evaluated to confirm that the associated model changes did not constitute a model upgrade. Sections 3 and 4 provide the disposition of all open peer review F&Os that were associated with Supporting Requirements (SRs) assessed as Not Met or Capability Category (CC) I following the closure reviews, including the disposition of the open F&O relative to this application. Note that all open F&Os that represent a gap to meeting CC II, regardless of whether it is categorized as a finding or suggestion, are dispositioned in this application. The resolved F&Os and the basis for resolution are documented in the F&O Closure Review reports [11, 12].

Note on RCP SHEILD modeling: As part of Ginnas NFPA 805 submittal, the NRC reviewed the modeling of the Westinghouse RCP SHIELD. Discussions related to the RCP SHIELD are contained in the Ginna Safety Evaluation for NFPA 805 [13].

2. Requirements Related to Scope of GINNA PRA Models The PRA models discussed in this enclosure have been assessed against RG 1.200, An Approach for Determining the Technical Adequacy of Probabilistic Risk Assessment Results for Risk-Informed Activities, Revision 2 [4] consistent with NRC RIS 2007-06 [8].

Both the GINNA Internal Events PRA model (including internal flooding) and the GINNA Fire PRA model are at-power models. The models are capable of quantifying Core Damage Frequency (CDF) and Large Early Release Frequency (LERF).

E2-1

License Amendment Request Enclosure 2 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket No. 50-244 Information Supporting Consistency with Regulatory Guide 1.200 Note that this portion of the GINNA PRA model does not incorporate the risk impacts of external events. The treatment of seismic risk and other external hazards for this application are discussed in Enclosure 4.

3. Scope and Technical Adequacy of GINNA Internal Events and Internal Flooding PRA Model Topical Report NEI 06-09 [1] requires that the PRA be reviewed to the guidance of RG 1.200 Revision 2 [4] for a PRA which meets Capability Category (CC) II for the Supporting Requirements (SRs) of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) / American Nuclear Society (ANS) PRA Standard [5]. It also requires that deviations from these CCs relative to the Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program be justified and documented.

The Ginna Internal Events PRA model was peer reviewed in June 2009 using the NEI 05-04 process, the PRA Standard (ASME/ANS RA-Sc-2007) and Regulatory Guide 1.200, Revision 1.

This Peer Review [9] was a full-scope review of the technical elements of the Internal Events and internal flooding, at-power PRA.

In June 2017, an F&O Closure Review was conducted for the Ginna FPIE PRA model to evaluate elements of the PRA relative to the requirements of ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009 [5] and RG 1.200 Rev. 2 [4]

In 2020, a second F&O Closure Review was conducted for the Ginna PRA Model [12]. The Internal Events scope of the review was the open and partially resolved finding-level F&Os from the 2017 F&O Closure Review [11]. - The focused-scope peer review determined there is one finding-level F&O that remains open resulting in a capability category I SR. This finding level F&O is discussed in Table 3-1.

Based on the assessments provided in Table 3-1, it is concluded that the GINNA Internal Events PRA (including internal flooding) is of adequate technical capability to support the TSTF-505 program.

4. Scope and Technical Adequacy of GINNA Fire PRA Model The Ginna Fire PRA (FPRA) peer review [10] was performed in June 2012 using the NEI 07-12 Fire PRA peer review process [6], the ASME PRA Standard, ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009 [5] and Regulatory Guide 1.200, Rev. 2 [4]. The purpose of this review was to establish the technical acceptability of the FPRA for the spectrum of potential risk-informed plant licensing applications for which the FPRA may be used. The FPRA peer review was a full-scope review of all of the technical elements of the Ginna at-power FPRA against all technical elements in Part 4 of the ASME/ANS PRA Standard, including the referenced internal events supporting requirements (SRs) in Part 2.

The findings from the Fire PRA peer review have been addressed in the Fire PRA model. An F&O Closure Review was conducted for Ginna [12]. The scope of the review included fire peer review findings. All of the findings from the 2012 fire PRA peer review were resolved. Currently, there are no open findings against the fire PRA model.

Given the resolution of all F&Os related to SRs assessed with less than a CC II, it is concluded that the GINNA FPRA is of adequate technical capability to support the TSTF-505 program.

Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models 1 Introduction and Scope Topical Report NEI 06-09, Revision 0-A (Reference [1]), as clarified by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) final safety evaluation (Reference [2]), requires that the License Amendment Request (LAR) provide a justification for exclusion of risk sources from the Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) model based on their insignificance to the calculation of configuration risk as well as discuss conservative or bounding analyses applied to the configuration risk calculation. This enclosure addresses this requirement by discussing the overall generic methodology to identify and disposition such risk sources. This enclosure also provides the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (Ginna) specific results of the application of the generic methodology and the disposition of impacts on the Ginna Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program. Section 3 of this enclosure presents the plant-specific analysis of seismic risk to Ginna. Section 4 of this enclosure presents the justification for excluding analysis of high wind risk to Ginna. Section 5 presents the justification for excluding External Flooding for Ginna. Section 6 of this enclosure presents the justification for excluding analyses of other external hazards from the Ginna PRA.

Topical Report NEI 06-09 does not provide a specific list of hazards to be considered in a RICT Program. However, non-mandatory Appendix 6-A in the ASME/ANS PRA Standard (Reference [3]) provides a guide for identification of most of the possible external events for a plant site. Additionally, NUREG-1855 (Reference [4]) provides a discussion of hazards that should be evaluated to assess uncertainties in plant PRAs and support the risk-informed decision-making process. This information was reviewed for the Ginna site and augmented with a review of information on the site region and plant design to identify the set of external events to be considered. The information in the UFSAR regarding the geologic, seismologic, hydrologic, and meteorological characteristics of the site region as well as present and projected industrial activities in the vicinity of the plant were also reviewed for this purpose. No new site-specific and plant-unique external hazards were identified through this review. The list of hazards in Appendix 6-A of the PRA Standard were considered for Ginna as summarized in Table E4-4.

The scope of this enclosure is consideration of the hazards in Table E4-4 for Ginna. As explained in subsequent Sections of this enclosure, risk contribution from seismic events and is evaluated quantitatively, and the other listed external hazards are evaluated and screened as having low risk. Although the high winds (missiles) hazard screened for total risk, it does not screen for all configurations; therefore, a penalty factor is developed to account for tornado missile risk in the RICT.

2 Technical Approach The guidance contained in NEI 06-09 states that all hazards that contribute significantly to incremental risk of a configuration must be quantitatively addressed in the implementation of the E4-1

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models RICT Program. The following approach focuses on the risk implications of specific external hazards in the determination of the risk management action time (RMAT) and RICT for the Technical Specification (TS) Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) selected to be part of the RICT Program.

Consistent with NUREG-1855 (Reference [4]), external hazards may be addressed by:

1) Screening the hazard based on a low frequency of occurrence,
2) Bounding the potential impact and including it in the decision-making, or
3) Developing a PRA model to be used in the RMAT/RICT calculation.

The overall process for addressing external hazards considers two aspects of the external hazard contribution to risk.

  • The first is the contribution from the occurrence of beyond design basis conditions, e.g.,

winds greater than design, seismic events greater than the design-basis earthquake (DBE), etc. These beyond design basis conditions challenge the capability of the SSCs to maintain functionality and support safe shutdown of the plant.

  • The second aspect addressed is the challenges caused by external conditions that are within the design basis, but still require some plant response to assure safe shutdown, e.g., high winds or seismic events causing loss of offsite power, etc. While the plant design basis assures that the safety related equipment necessary to respond to these challenges are protected, the occurrence of these conditions nevertheless causes a demand on these systems that present a risk.

Hazard Screening The first step in the evaluation of an external hazard is screening based on an estimation of a bounding core damage frequency (CDF) for beyond design basis hazard conditions. An example of this type of screening is reliance on the NRCs 1975 Standard Review Plan (SRP)

(Reference [5]), which is acknowledged in the NRCs Individual Plant Examination of External Events (IPEEE) procedural guidance [6] as assuring a bounding CDF of less than 1E-6/yr for each hazard. The bounding CDF estimate is often characterized by the likelihood of the site being exposed to conditions that are beyond the design basis limits and an estimate of the bounding conditional core damage probability (CCDP) for those conditions. If the bounding CDF for the hazard can be shown to be less than 1E-6/yr, then beyond design basis challenges from that hazard can be screened out and do not need to be addressed quantitatively in the RICT Program.

E4-2

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models The basis for this is as follows:

  • The overall calculation of the RICT is limited to an incremental core damage probability (ICDP) of 1E-5.
  • The maximum time interval allowed for this RICT is 30 days.
  • If the maximum CDF contribution from a hazard is <1E-6/yr, then the maximum ICDP from the hazard is <1E-7 (1E-6/yr
  • 30 days/365 days/yr).
  • Thus, the bounding ICDP contribution from the hazard is shown to be less than 1% of the permissible ICDP in the bounding time for the condition. Such a minimal contribution is not significant to the decision in computing a RICT.

The Ginna IPEEE hazard screening analysis (Reference [7]) has been updated to reflect current Ginna site conditions. The results are discussed in Section 6 and show that all the events listed in Table E4-4 can be screened except seismic events for Ginna. While high winds can be screened at Ginna based on average risk, there are configuration specific conditions identified for Ginna such that development of a High Winds RICT penalty was warranted as discussed in Section 4 below.

Hazard Analysis - CDF There are two options in cases where the bounding CDF for the external hazard cannot be shown to be less than 1E-6/yr. The first option is to develop a PRA model that explicitly models the challenges created by the hazard and the role of the SSCs included in the RICT Program in mitigating those challenges. The second option for addressing an external hazard is to compute a bounding CDF contribution for the hazard.

Evaluate Bounding LERF Contribution The RICT Program requires addressing both core damage and large early release risk. When a comprehensive PRA does not exist, the LERF considerations can be estimated based on the relevant parts of the internal events LERF analysis. This can be done by considering the nature of the challenges induced by the hazard and relating those to the challenges considered in the internal events PRA. This can be done in a realistic manner or a conservative manner. The goal is to provide a representative or bounding conditional large early release probability (CLERP) that aligns with the bounding CDF evaluation. The incremental large early release frequency (ILERF) is then computed as follows:

ILERFHazard = ICDFHazard

  • CLERPHazard The approach used for seismic LERF is described in Section 3.

E4-3

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models Risks from Hazard Challenges Given the selection of an estimated bounding CDF/LERF, the approach considered must assure that the RICT Program calculations reflect the change in CDF/LERF caused by the out of service equipment. For Ginna, as discussed later in this enclosure, the only beyond design basis hazard that could not be screened out are the seismic hazard, and the approach used considers that the change in risk with equipment out of service will not be higher than the estimated seismic CDF. In addition, while the high wind hazard for Ginna was screened for the average test and maintenance conditions, it could not be screened under different configuration-specific conditions.

The above steps address the direct risks from damage to the facility from external hazards.

While the direct CDF contribution from beyond design basis hazard conditions can be shown to be non-significant using these steps without a full PRA, there are risks that may be addressed.

These risks are related to the fact that some external hazards can cause a plant challenge even for hazard severities that are less than the design basis limit. For example, high winds, tornadoes, and seismic events below the design basis levels can cause extended loss of offsite power conditions. Additionally, depending on the site, external floods can challenge the availability of normal plant heat removal mechanisms.

The approach taken in this step is to identify the plant challenges caused by the occurrence of the hazard within the design basis and evaluate whether the risks associated with these events are either already considered in the existing PRA model or they are not significant to risk.

Section 3 of this enclosure provides the analysis for Ginna with respect to the beyond design basis seismic hazard, Section 4 provides an analysis for the extreme winds hazard, Section 5 addresses the analysis of external flooding, and Section 6 of this enclosure provides an analysis of the other external hazards for Ginna.

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models 3 Seismic Risk Contribution Analysis Introduction The TSTF 505 program requires accounting for seismic risk contribution in calculating extended risk informed technical specification (TS) completion times (CT, also referred to as Allowed Outage Time, AOT). The basis for the estimate of seismic core damage frequency (SCDF) and seismic large early release frequency (SLERF) for application in the Ginna Risk Informed Completion Time - TSTF-505 program is documented in Reference [8].

Since a seismic PRA (SPRA) has not been previously developed (e.g., for the Ginna IPEEE (Individual Plant Examination for External Events) (Reference [9]), an alternative approach is taken to provide an estimate of seismic core damage frequency (SCDF) based on the current Ginna seismic hazard curve (Reference [10]), and assuming the seismic capacity of a component whose seismic failure would lead directly to core damage.

The calculation of seismic large early release frequency (SLERF) is performed by convolving the plant seismic core damage estimate described above with an assumed independent containment integrity HCLPF to estimate seismic LERF. That is, the seismic LERF can be estimated by convolving the plant seismic hazard with the plant limiting HCLPF for core damage and the limiting HCLPF for containment integrity.

Inputs and Assumptions Hazard Curve The Ginna seismic hazard is defined by the seismic hazard curve provided to NRC in Reference [11] using the seismic hazard curve per Reference [10].

PGA Metric The ground motion metric used to define the seismic hazard in this analysis is peak ground acceleration (PGA). PGA is a common ground motion metric used in seismic risk analyses for nuclear power plants (Reference [12]).

Plant Level Seismic Fragility The assumed limiting plant level seismic capacity used in the Ginna seismic penalty calculation has a high confidence of low probability of failure (HCLPF) value of 0.20g PGA. The HCLPF capacity is intended to represent an earthquake level in which there is approximately 95%

confidence of less than about a 5% failure probability. The basis for this value is the Ginna IPEEE (Reference [9]) seismic analysis. The IPEEE assessed Ginna structures, systems and components (SSCs) associated with Ginna SMA (seismic margins analysis) success paths to a review level earthquake (RLE) value of 0.30g PGA in accordance with NRC guidance in NUREG-1407 (Reference [6]). The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) NP-6041 seismic margin assessment methodology (Reference [13]) was used for the Ginna IPEEE seismic analysis.

E4-5

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models The Ginna IPEEE (Reference [9]) and the NRC SER (Reference [14]) of the Ginna IPEEE were reviewed for insights to determine the limiting plant HCLPF. For Ginna, the Seismic Margin Earthquake (SME) assigned by the NRC is the median NUREG/CR-0098 (Reference [15])

spectrum anchored at 0.3g (Reference [14]). The IPEEE included a review of the integrity of the containment itself and isolation systems such as valves and mechanical and electrical penetrations. A number of Ginna components could not be screened out in the IPEEE using the 0.3g PGA HCLPF value for focused review level plants. Because some SSCs could not screen at 0.3g PGA, the lower HCLPF of 0.2g PGA is used as the Ginna plant level fragility for this evaluation. The 0.2g HCLPF is consistent with the value cited in Table B.2 of Safety/Risk Assessment Panel for GI-199 (Reference [16]) for the Ginna IPEEE SMA-based plant level seismic fragility.

The uncertainty parameter for seismic capacity is represented by a composite beta factor (c) of 0.4. This is a commonly accepted approximation and is consistent with the value used in GI-199, Table C.1, Bases for Establishing Plant-Level Fragility Curves Parameters from IPEEE Information (Reference [16]).

Convolution to Determine SCDF The estimation of SCDF in this calculation is performed by a mathematical convolution of the PGA-based seismic hazard curve and the Ginna PGA-based plant HCLPF value of 0.2g. This convolution estimation approach is a common analysis in approximating an SCDF for use in risk-informed decision making (e.g., it is commonly used in RICT seismic penalty calculations; the NRC used this approach in the GI-199 risk assessment) in absence of a current full-scope SPRA.

Convolution to Determine SLERF The estimate of SLERF is performed by convolving the plant seismic core damage estimate described above with an assumed independent (i.e., seismically uncorrelated) containment integrity HCLPF. This approach is consistent with the approach provided in response to an NRC Request for Additional Information (RAI) regarding the calculation of seismic LERF to support RICT calculations (Reference [17]). This approach for estimating SLERF is judged to be conservative in the absence of a current full-scope SPRA.

Calculations The general approach to estimation of the SCDF is to use the plant level HCLPF and convolve the corresponding failure probabilities as a function of seismic hazard level with the seismic hazard curve frequencies of occurrence. This is a commonly used approach to estimate SCDF when a seismic PRA is not available and is also the approach that was used in the Vogtle pilot TSTF-505 license amendment request submittal (Reference [18]) and a previous Exelon TSTF-505 submittal for Calvert Cliffs (Reference [19]). A second convolution with an assumed low seismic capacity for containment is used to estimate SLERF. The key elements of the SCDF and SLERF seismic penalty calculations are discussed below.

E4-6

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models Seismic Hazard and Intervals The seismic hazard input per Reference [11] is shown in Table E4-1. The mean fractile occurrence frequencies in Table E4-1 are used in the convolution calculations here; use of mean values is a typical and expected PRA practice.

To facilitate calculation of the plant fragility probability at each seismic hazard interval, a representative g-level is calculated for each interval. The representative g-level for all seismic intervals is calculated using a geometric mean approach (i.e., the square root of the product of the g-level values at the beginning and end of the given interval). For the last open-ended seismic interval greater than 10g, the representative g-level is estimated as 10g as opposed to a higher g-level (e.g., 11g) for modeling convenience. However, the precision of the representative magnitude used for the final open-ended seismic interval in the SCDF convolution is immaterial given that the calculated conditional failure probability is at a g-level of 10g is 1.0 and the contribution from this final interval has a negligible contribution to the overall SCDF estimate.

The seismic hazard interval annual initiating event frequency is calculated (except for the final interval) by subtracting the mean exceedance frequency associated with the g-interval (high) end point from the mean exceedance frequency associated with the g-interval beginning point.

The frequency of the last seismic hazard interval is the exceedance frequency at the beginning point of that interval. This is common practice in industry SPRAs (References [20] and [12]).

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models Seismic Failure Probabilities The seismic failure probability of the Ginna limiting plant fragility for each hazard interval is calculated using the following fragility equations. These are the typical lognormal fragility equations used in most hazard PRAs (Reference [12]).

Fragility (i.e., failure probability) = [ln(A/Am)/c],

where is the standard lognormal distribution function A is the g level in question, Am is the median seismic capacity, c is the composite uncertainty parameter HCLPF and Am are related as follows: Am = HCLPF / (exp -2.33c)

The above fragility relationships are used to determine the plant level seismic induced failure probability as a function of seismic hazard interval. The following shows the Ginna limiting plant level seismic fragility statistics.

Ginna Limiting Plant Level Seismic Fragility Parameters Source HCLPF Am c Ginna IPEEE SMA 0.20g PGA 0.51g PGA 0.40 (NRC GI-199, Table B-2)

Seismic Core Damage Frequency The SCDF for each hazard interval is computed as the product of the hazard interval initiating event frequency (/yr) and the plant level fragility failure probability for that same hazard interval.

The results per hazard interval are then straight summed to produce the overall total SCDF across the entire hazard curve. The SCDF convolution calculation is summarized in Table E4-2 and shows the total estimated SCDF is 3.4E-6/yr.

Table E4-3 provides the following information:

  • Ginna limiting plant level seismic fragility inputs
  • Seismic hazard intervals and their associated initiating event frequencies (Mean)
  • Representative magnitudes and plant level fragility failure probabilities (Mean) per hazard interval
  • Convolved SCDF per interval and total SCDF.

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models Seismic Large Early Release Frequency (Seismic LERF)

In the absence of a seismic PRA or other detailed current seismic evaluation, the following approach is used to estimate seismic LERF for use in the TSTF-505 program. The following approach is consistent with the approach provided in response to an NRC Request for Additional Information (RAI) regarding the calculation of seismic LERF to support RICT calculations for another PWR (Reference [17]).

The robustness of the containment integrity is established by reviewing the seismically important plant specific and generic information on LERF contributors. The failure of containment isolation and the ability to isolate the containment were also reviewed in detail. An estimate of SLERF is obtained by convolving the plant seismic hazard curve with the plant limiting fragility for core damage (0.2g PGA HCLPF based on IPEEE SMA) and a plant limiting fragility representing containment integrity (conservatively assumed as 0.2g PGA HCLPF).

Most containment isolation pathways at Ginna are equipped with combinations of check valves, which are seismically rugged components, and air operated valves (AOV) that fail closed on loss of support and are also generally seismically rugged components. Certain containment isolation motor operated valves (MOV) require actuation signals and power for closure, but most such valves would normally be already closed at the time of the earthquake or they are part of a closed-loop system that would not represent a large magnitude release pathway (thus, not LERF release).

Seismic LERF Estimate As mentioned above, an estimate of seismic LERF for use in the TSTF-505 program is calculated by convolving the plant seismic hazard curve with the plant limiting fragility for core damage (0.2g PGA HCLPF based on IPEEE SMA) and a plant limiting fragility representing containment integrity (conservatively assumed as 0.2g PGA HCLPF).

Similar to the SCDF convolution calculation in Table E4-2, the SLERF convolution calculation is summarized in Table E4-3 and shows the total estimated SLERF is 1.9E-6/yr. Table E4-3 provides the following information:

  • Ginna limiting plant level seismic fragility inputs (same information as Table E4-2)
  • Ginna limiting seismic fragility inputs representing containment
  • Seismic hazard intervals and their associated initiating event frequencies (Mean) (same information as Table E4-2)
  • Representative magnitudes and plant level and containment fragility failure probabilities (Mean) per hazard interval
  • Convolved SCDF per interval and total SCDF (same information as Table E4-2)
  • Convolved SLERF per interval and total SLERF E4-10

ENCLOSURE 4 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models Application of SLERF in RICT Calculations The SLERF estimate documented above is conservatively used in the RICT calculation process.

Conservatism in the RICT process derives from the proposed approach to apply the total estimated annual seismic LERF as a delta SLERF in each RICT calculation, regardless of the duration of the completion time. The total estimated annual seismic CDF and LERF will be applied starting at time zero for each RICT calculation.

License Amendment Request Enclosure 4 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket Nos. 50-244 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models Summary Estimates of SCDF and SLERF have been derived for use in the Ginna TSTF-505 program. Since the estimates are intended to be treated as conservative values in the RICT calculations for that program, the results for the case of a limiting plant level seismic fragility of 0.20g PGA HCLPF and limiting containment seismic fragility of 0.2g PGA HCLPF, both with c = 0.4, will be used.

Seismic CDF = 3.4E-6/yr Seismic LERF = 1.9E-6/yr Note: RICT calculations use the formulaic construct of: CDF x Time in Configuration (same formula for LERF metric). In the case of the seismic risk contribution to the RICT calculations, the total SCDF and total SLERF seismic penalties are treated as SCDF and SLERF. In effect this approach is assuming the base seismic risk is negligible, which has the effect of producing conservative SCDF and SLERF values.

License Amendment Request Enclosure 4 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket Nos. 50-244 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models 4 Extreme Winds Analysis This section provides an analysis of the High Winds / Tornados risk impact for Ginna.

Wind Pressure Section 3.3.4 of the Ginna UFSAR (Reference [21]) states that the Ginna Category I buildings are designed to withstand a fastest-mile wind velocity of 132-mph. A 132-mph fastest-mile wind speed is equivalent to ~150 mph 3-second gust wind speed (Reference [8]); current hazard curves are based on the 3-second gust wind speed.

Section 3.3.5 of the UFSAR describes the Structural Upgrade Program that was completed at Ginna. Section 3.3.5.7 describes the principal modifications and analyses performed such that:

  • All primary structural steel framing, including their connections and anchorages, found to be overstressed when subjected to the following design loads have been modified to resist these loads: 132mph tornado windspeeds and 100 psf extreme snow load. They have also been modified as necessary to maintain integrity for 188-mph tornado windspeeds. The modifications were included in the auxiliary building, turbine building, intermediate building, control building, and facade structure.
  • No modifications were required on the secondary members or exterior shell, since their failure would not damage required safety equipment.

Per Section 3.3.3.3.5 of the UFSAR, the diesel generator building was modified to withstand 132-mph tornado loads with no significant damage, and remain functional at a windspeed of 188 mph.

As a result of the Structural Upgrade Program, the plant is capable of achieving and maintaining safe shutdown conditions following a 188-mph tornado strike. Per Section 3.3.2.1.4 of the UFSAR, this was the wind speed for the 1E-6/yr tornado at that time.

As part of the IPEEE (Reference [7]), a site walkdown was performed and no changes at the plant were found that would increase the plants vulnerability to high winds. The IPEEE screened high winds consistent with the criteria in Section 5.2.4 of NUREG-1407 (Reference [6]). It was stated that assuring all safe shutdown functions could be met for a 1E-6/yr tornado was comparable to the NUREG-1407 Section 5.2.4 criteria of a design basis event with frequency less than 1E-5/yr and conditional core damage probability of 0.1.

Per Table 6-1 of the more recent NUREG/CR-4461, Rev. 2 (Reference [22]), the 1E-6 annual exceedance probability (AEP) of tornado wind speed at the Ginna site is 169 mph, based on the EF-scale. Therefore, the frequency of the 188-mph tornado is significantly less than 1E-6/yr.

License Amendment Request Enclosure 4 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket Nos. 50-244 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models Tornado Missiles The Ginna licensing basis for tornado missiles is described in Section 3.3.2.1.4 of the UFSAR.

Further, Section 3.5.1.4 of the UFSAR documents that the facility was upgraded as part of the Structural Upgrade Program to provide adequate protection for required SSCs to perform their appropriate safety function (Reference [21]).

Subsequent to the IPEEE, Ginna performed evaluations of tornado missile protection (TMP) in order to address US NRC Regulatory Information Summary (RIS) 2015-06 (Reference [23]). Potential vulnerabilities were documented in the Ginna Tornado Missile Vulnerability Report (Reference [24]).

The Ginna TMP Structural Barriers Design Analysis, DA-CE-17-001 (Reference [25]), documents the barrier upgrades and analyses to meet the design basis for TMP. Analysis DA-CE-17-001 demonstrates that the structural barriers at Ginna provide sufficiently robust missile resistance to protect safety related building and components.

An additional analysis was performed to evaluate key tornado missile barriers against the 3 pipe, weighing 78 lbs travelling at 67.6 mph (i.e., 0.4 x 169 mph, which is the windspeed associated with the 1E-6/yr tornado from NUREG/CR-4461 (Reference [22])). This analysis showed that standby auxiliary feedwater (SAFW) and B EDG structures and barriers were capable of stopping such a missile, after upgrades to several of the barriers are made (Reference [26]). This provides additional assurance that Ginna tornado missile risk is low, since key SSCs are protected against tornado missiles beyond the design basis.

The upgrades/modifications identified are (Reference [26]):

  • SAFW Generator Radiator Exhaust: Replace 19W4 1/4x2 Bar Grating with 19W4 1/4x4 Bar Grating
  • B EDG Roof Vents: Increase anchorage capacity by expanding baseplate, increasing the size/embedment depth of anchors
  • KDG08 Exhaust: Additional gussets at outside face of piping and, re-pad on outside edge of elbow
  • KDG01B Exhaust: Perform field measurements to determine thickness of silencer (SDG01A) shell; upgrade as necessary As described above, the 132 mph fastest-mile windspeed is equivalent to ~150 mph 3-second gust, which is the windspeed scale used for tornado windspeeds and frequencies reported in NUREG/CR-4461 (Reference [22]). The EF-scale windspeed associated with the 1E-5 AEP for Ginna is 130 mph. Therefore, the design windspeed of ~150 mph (3-second gust) is less than 1E-5/yr.

E4-18

License Amendment Request Enclosure 4 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket Nos. 50-244 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models A conservative estimate was made of the conditional core damage (CCDP) probability for the tornado missile hazard with wind-speeds of 150 mph. The CCDP was determined to be approximately 3.1E-2 (Reference [8]).

Configuration Specific Considerations Wind Hazard The plant design for wind pressure and the low frequency of design tornadoes results in a demonstrably conservative estimate of CDF associated with high wind hazard (other than wind generated missiles) less than 1E-6/yr. Therefore, all non-missile high wind hazards can be screened from consideration for the TSTF-505 application, based on EXT-C1 Criterion C of ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009 (Reference [3]).

Missile Hazard Based on a plant-specific tornado missile risk analysis for Ginna (Reference [8]), the CCDP for tornado missiles associated with design basis 150 mph (3-second gust) windspeeds is approximately 3.1E-2. The frequency of 150 mph tornados is less than 1E-5/yr, based on the EF-scale. Therefore, tornado missile hazards can be screened from consideration for the TSTF-505 application, based on EXT-C1 Criterion B of ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009 (Reference [3]). There are no vulnerabilities to tornado missiles at Ginna that would specifically affect containment integrity and large early release probability.

However, CDF due to tornado missiles for certain maintenance configurations is determined to be above 1E-6/yr, requiring a high winds penalty factor to be established for TSTF-505 calculations.

Summary Conservative high winds penalty factors are calculated in G1-MISC-021 (Reference [8]). These conservative high winds penalty factors should be included in the TSTF-505 calculations for all configurations except LCOs 3.7.5.F, 3.6.2.C, and 3.6.3.E (Reference [8]).

CDF = 1E-5/yr LERF = 2E-6/yr The following penalty factors should be used for LCO 3.7.5.F, 3.6.2.C, and 3.6.3.E.

LCO 3.7.5.F: CDF = 7E-5/yr; LERF = 2E-6/yr LCO 3.6.2.C and 3.6.3.E: CDF = 1E-5/yr; LERF = 5E-6/yr Additionally, if any of the following conditions exist, the higher CDF penalty of 1E-5/yr should be used, regardless of the LCO(s):

The stations flood hazard reevaluation report (FHRR) was submitted to the NRC for review on March 11, 2015 (Reference [27]). The results indicated that all flood causing mechanisms, except Local Intense Precipitation (LIP) and combined effects River Flood which produces a probable maximum flood (PMF), were bounded by the current licensing basis (CLB) and did not pose a challenge to the plant.

Local Intense Precipitation (LIP)

The reevaluated LIP mechanism was found to produce various water surface elevations (WSEs) at different locations throughout the site. At the Auxiliary Building, the peak water surface elevation is 270.9 ft and the finished floor elevation is 271.0 ft. Peak LIP WSEs at the battery and diesel generator rooms are 255.8 ft with the buildings having a finished floor elevation of 253.5 ft. Both structures have watertight doors and seals that provide 4.5 ft protection against flood water intrusion. Therefore, the available physical margin (APM) against flooding is 2.2 ft and no impacts are expected to the Auxiliary Building or Battery or Diesel Generator rooms. The peak WSEs at the screen house is 255.8 ft and water intrusion is expected to affect the Service Water system, however, SW is not credited for providing cooling water during an external flood. An alternate cooling water tank is available at elevation 271.0 ft.

The LIP flooding mechanism is screened from further analysis utilizing the Criteria EXT-B1 from the ASME/ANS RA-S 2009 where the hazard is of equal or lesser damage potential than the hazards for which the plant has been designed.

Combined Effects River Flooding The PMF resulting from the combined effects river flood would inundate the site and the CLB requires temporary barriers to be installed by site personnel prior to the arrival of flood waters. As outlined in the Ginna Focused Evaluation (FE) (Reference [28]), the evaluation concluded the site has an adequate site response and available physical margin (APM) to mitigate the effects from the PMF.

To better characterize the frequency of exceedance for the combined effects river flood risk-significant flood events, a flood-frequency study was completed in August 2020 (Reference [29]). The report analyzed flooding events up to an exceedance frequency of 1E-6/yr and provided inundation mapping to show the impact to the site from a flood with an exceedance frequency of 1E-6/yr. The results show that a combined effects river flood with this exceedance frequency would not produce a water surface elevation (WSE) greater than the elevation of the stream banks on the south and east sides of the plant. The result is no flood water will top the banks allowing inundation throughout the site. There are no other impacts from this flood event to site equipment important to safety. The frequency analysis and inundation mapping for these floods are provided in Reference [29].

E4-21

License Amendment Request Enclosure 4 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket Nos. 50-244 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models The conclusion is that the combined effects river flood is screened, utilizing the ASME/ANS RA-S 2009 Criteria EXT-C2, with a hazard frequency less than 1E-6/yr and no impacts to the site.

Disposition for RICT Program:

The LIP flooding mechanism has been screened from further consideration in the RICT Program. The site is designed to mitigate the effects from the hazard utilizing permanently installed exterior watertight doors that do not require any manual actions to close. Therefore, there are no postulated impacts to safe shutdown equipment required during the LIP flood.

The combined effects river flood mechanism was evaluated based on the frequency of the initiating event at the screening threshold (1E-6/yr). It was determined that no impacts to safe shutdown equipment are postulated from a combined effects river flood initiating event at the screening frequency threshold. Therefore, the frequency of a combined effects river flood that could impact the site is lower than the screening threshold of 1E-6/yr as identified in criteria EXT-C2 and is screened from further consideration in the RICT program.

Configuration Specific Considerations There are no configuration specific considerations related to the screening assessment provided above for Ginna.

The results of the assessment of these hazards is provided in Table E4-4. Table E4-5 provides the summary criteria for screening of the hazards listed in Table E4-4.

Hazard Screening The IPEEE for Ginna provides an assessment of the risk to Ginna associated with these hazards.

Additional analyses have been performed since the IPEEE to provide updated risk assessments of various hazards, such as aircraft impacts, industrial facilities and pipelines, and external flooding.

These analyses are documented in the UFSAR (Reference [21]. Table E4-4 reviews and provides the bases for the screening of external hazards, identifies any challenges posed, and identifies any additional treatment of these challenges, if required. The conclusions of the assessment, as documented in Table E4-4, assure that the hazard either does not present a design-basis challenge to Ginna, or is adequately addressed in the PRA.

In the application of Risk-Informed Completion Times, a significant consideration in the screening of external hazards is whether particular plant configurations could impact the decision on whether a particular hazard that screens under the normal plant configuration and the base risk profile would still screen given the particular configuration. The external hazards screening evaluation for Ginna has been performed accounting for such configuration-specific impacts. The process involves several steps.

As a first step in this screening process, hazards that screen for one or more of the following criteria (as defined in Table E4-5) still screen regardless of the configuration, as these criteria are not dependent on the plant configuration.

  • The occurrence of the event is of sufficiently low frequency that its impact on plant risk does not appreciably impact CDF or LERF. (Criterion C2)
  • The event cannot occur close enough to the plant to affect it. (Criterion C3)
  • The event which subsumes the external hazard is still applicable and bounds the hazard for other configurations (Criterion C4)
  • The event develops slowly, allowing adequate time to eliminate or mitigate the hazard or its impact on the plant. (Criterion C5)

The next step in the screening process is to consider the remaining hazards (i.e., those not screened per the above criteria) to consider the impact of the hazard on the plant given particular E4-23

License Amendment Request Enclosure 4 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket Nos. 50-244 Information Supporting Justification of Excluding Sources of Risk Not Addressed by the PRA Models configurations for which a RICT is allowed. For hazards for which the ability to achieve safe shutdown may be impacted by one or more such plant configurations, the impact of the hazard to particular SSCs is assessed and a basis for the screening decision applicable to configurations impacting those SSCs is provided.

As noted above, the configurations to be evaluated are those involving unavailable SSCs whose LCOs are included in the RICT program.

Operation and regulation criteria have been developed by the Board and its staff. The regulation plan has two sets of basic rule curves for discharge using a basic storage equation and supply indicators for adjusting outflows from the lake. Seasonal adjustments to the outflow curves permit storage of water in winter, spring, and early summer and the opposite in the late summer and fall, resulting in a high operating efficiency for maximum benefits to all water users.

Thus, the basic water supply to the lake changes very slowly, permitting reasonably accurate forecasts and operating actions to maintain desired levels. Because of this, only minor concern is given to "short-term" supply changes, such as ice jams on the Niagara River or local winter floods (C5).

The evaluation concluded that the hazards either do not present a design-basis challenge to Ginna, the challenge is adequately addressed in the PRA, or the hazard has a negligible impact on the calculated RICT and can be excluded.

The ICDP/ILERP acceptance criteria of 1E-5/1E-6 will be used within the PARAGON framework to calculate the resulting RICT and RMAT based on the total configuration-specific delta CDF/LERF attributed to internal events and internal fire, plus the seismic and tornado risk penalty CDF/LERF values.

Baseline Core Damage Frequency (CDF) and Large Early Release Frequency (LERF)

Baseline Core Damage Frequency (CDF) and Large Early Release Frequency (LERF)

1. Introduction Section 4.0, Item 6 of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) Final Safety Evaluation [1]

for NEI 06-09-A, Revision 0, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines," [2] requires that the license amendment request (LAR) provide the plant-specific total CDF and LERF to confirm applicability of the limits of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.174, Revision 1 [3]. (Note that RG 1.174, Revision 2 [4], issued by the NRC in May 2011, did not revise these limits.)

The purpose of this enclosure is to demonstrate that the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (REG) total Core Damage Frequency (CDF) and total Large Early Release Frequency (LERF) are below the guidelines established in RG 1.174. RG 1.174 does not establish firm limits for total CDF and LERF, but it recommends that risk-informed applications be implemented only when the total plant risk is no more than about 1E-4/year for CDF and 1E-5/year for LERF.

Demonstrating that these limits are met confirms that the risk metrics of NEI 06-09-A can be applied to the REG Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program.

2. Technical Approach Table E5-1 lists the REG CDF and LERF point estimate values that resulted from a quantification of the baseline internal events (including internal flooding) model GN119A-ASM-002 [5] and fire Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) model GI120AF0 [6]. This table also includes an estimate of the seismic contribution to CDF and LERF based on the methodology detailed in Enclosure 4, Section 3.

Table E5-1 Total Baseline CDF/LERF REG Baseline CDF REG Baseline LERF Source Contribution Source Contribution Internal Events PRA 7.5E-06 Internal Events PRA 3.4E-07 Fire PRA 3.8E-05 Fire PRA 5.4E-07 Seismic 3.4E-06 Seismic 1.9E-06 Other External Events Screened Other External Events Screened Total Unit 1 CDF 4.9E-05 Total Unit 1 LERF 2.8E-06 As demonstrated in Table E5-1, the total CDF and total LERF are within the guidelines set forth in RG 1.174 and support small changes in risk that may occur during RICT entries following TSTF-505 implementation. Therefore, REG TSTF-505 implementation is consistent with NEI 06-09-A guidance.

PRA Model Update Process E7-1

Introduction Section 4.0, Item 8 of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) Final Safety Evaluation (Reference 1) for NEI 06-09-A, Revision 0, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines," (Reference 2) requires that the license amendment request (LAR) provide a discussion of the licensee's programs and procedures which assure the PRA models which support the RMTS are maintained consistent with the as-built/as-operated plant.

This enclosure describes the administrative controls and procedural processes applicable to the configuration control of PRA models used to support the Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program, which will be in place to ensure that these models reflect the as-built/as-operated plant. Plant changes, including physical modifications and design changes, will be identified and reviewed prior to implementation to determine if they could impact the PRA models per ER- AA-600-1015, FPIE [Full Power Internal Events] PRA Model Update (Reference 3), and ER-AA-600-1061, Fire PRA Model Update and Control (Reference 4). In addition, the procedure review process per ER-AA-600-1015 (Reference 3) will ensure all new procedure changes that could impact the PRA will be reviewed for impact to the PRA models.

The configuration control program will ensure these plant changes are incorporated into the PRA models as appropriate. The process will include discovered conditions associated with the PRA models, which will be addressed by the applicable site Corrective Action Program.

Should a plant change or a discovered condition be identified that has a significant impact to the RICT Program calculations as defined by the above procedures, an unscheduled update of the PRA model will be implemented. Otherwise, the PRA model change is incorporated into a subsequent periodic model update. Such pending changes are considered when evaluating other changes until they are fully implemented into the PRA models. Periodic updates are typically performed every two refueling cycles.

2. PRA Model Update Process Internal Event, Internal Flood, and Fire PRA Model Maintenance and Update The Fleet risk management PRA model maintenance and update process ensures that the applicable PRA models used for the RICT Program reflect the as-built/as-operated plant for Ginna Unit 1. The PRA configuration control process delineates the responsibilities and guidelines for updating the full power internal events, internal flood, and fire PRA models, and includes both periodic and unscheduled PRA model updates.

The process includes provisions for monitoring potential impact areas affecting the technical elements of the PRA models (e.g., due to plant changes, plant/industry operational experience, or errors or limitations identified in the model), assessing the individual and cumulative risk impact of unincorporated changes, and controlling the model and necessary computer files, including those associated with the real time risk model.

Changes that are considered an upgrade per the ASME/ANS PRA standard receive a peer E7-1

review focused on those aspects of the PRA model that represent the upgrade.

Review of Plant Changes for Incorporation into the PRA Model

1. Plant changes or discovered conditions are reviewed for potential impact to the PRA models, including the real time risk model and the subsequent risk calculations which support the RICT Program (NEI 06-09-A, Section 2.3.4, Items 7.2 and 7.3, and 2.3.5, Items 9.2 and 9.3).
2. Plant changes that meet the criteria defined in References 3 and 4 (including consideration of the cumulative impact of other pending changes) will be incorporated in the applicable PRA model(s), consistent with the NEI 06-09-A guidance. Otherwise, the change is assigned a priority and is incorporated at a subsequent periodic update consistent with procedural requirements. (NEI 06-09-A, Section 2.3.5, Item 9.2)
3. PRA updates for plant changes are performed at least once every two refueling cycles, consistent with the guidance of NEI 06-09-A (NEI 06-09-A, Section 2.3.4, Item 7.1, and 2.3.5, Item 9.1).
4. If a PRA model change is required for the real time risk model, but cannot be immediately implemented for a significant plant change or discovered condition, either:
a. Interim analyses to address the expected risk impact of the change will be performed.

In such a case, these interim analyses become part of the RICT Program calculation process until the plant changes are incorporated into the PRA model during the next update. The use of such bounding analyses is consistent with the guidance of NEI 06-09-A.

OR

b. Appropriate administrative restrictions on the use of the RICT Program for extended Completion Times are put in place until the model changes are completed, consistent with the guidance of NEI 06-09-A.

These actions satisfy NEI 06-09-A, Section 2.3.5, Item 9.3.

Attributes of the Real-Time Risk Model

ENCLOSURE 8 Attributes of the Real Time Risk Model

1. Introduction Section 4.0, Item 9 of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) Final Safety Evaluation [1] for NEI 06-09-A, Revision 0, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b, Risk-Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) Guidelines," [2] requires that the license amendment request (LAR) provide a description of PRA models and tools used to support the RMTS. This includes identification of how the baseline probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) model is modified for use in the configuration risk management program (CRMP) tools, quality requirements applied to the PRA models and CRMP tools, consistency of calculated results from the PRA model and the CRMP tools, and training and qualification programs applicable to personnel responsible for development and use of the CRMP tools. NEI 06-09-A, Revision 0, uses the term CRMP for the program controlling the use of RMTS. This term is also used to designate the program implementing 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) and the monitoring program for other risk informed LARs. To avoid confusion the term Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) program is used to indicate the program required by NEI 06-09-A, Revision 0, in lieu of the term CRMP. This item should also confirm that the RICT program tools can be readily applied for each Technical Specification (TS) limiting condition for operation (LCO) within the scope of the plant-specific submittal.

This enclosure describes the necessary changes to the peer-reviewed baseline PRA models for use in the real time risk (RTR) tool to support the RICT Program. The process employed to adapt the baseline models is demonstrated:

a) to preserve the Core Damage Frequency (CDF) and Large Early Release Frequency (LERF) quantitative results; b) to maintain the quality of the peer-reviewed PRA models; and c) to correctly accommodate changes in risk due to configuration-specific considerations.

Quality controls and training programs applicable for the RICT Program are also discussed in this enclosure.

2. Translation of Baseline PRA Model for Use in Configuration Risk The baseline PRA models for internal events, including internal flood and internal fire, are the peer-reviewed models. These models are updated when necessary to incorporate plant changes to reflect the as-built/as-operated plant. The internal flood model is integrated into the internal events model. These models will be used in the RICT Program. The models may be optimized for quantification speed but are verified to provide the same result as the baseline models in accordance with approved procedures.

The Real Time Risk (RTR) tool will be used to facilitate all configuration-specific risk calculations and support the RICT Program implementation. The PRA Models utilize system initiator event fault trees so equipment unavailabilities are captured explicitly in these system E8-1

ENCLOSURE 8 Attributes of the Real Time Risk Model initiator fault trees. Therefore, no adjustment to initiating event frequencies are required within the RTR tool.

The baseline PRA models are modified as follows for use in configuration risk calculations:

  • The unit availability factor is set to 1.0 (unit available).
  • Maintenance unavailability is set to zero/false unless unavailable due to the configuration.
  • Mutually exclusive combinations, including normally disallowed maintenance combinations, are adjusted to allow accurate analysis of the configuration.
  • For systems where some trains or components are in service and some in standby or there are seasonal dependencies, the RTR tool addresses the actual configuration of the plant as needed.

Changes in success criteria based on the time in the core operating cycle (i.e., impact on ATWS pressure relief) will be addressed in the Real Time Risk Model.

The configuration risk software is designed to quantify the unit-specific configuration for both internal events, including internal flooding and fire, and includes the seismic risk contribution when calculating the Risk Management Action Times (RMAT) and RICT. Full quantifications will be used for each configuration. Pre-solved cutsets will be limited to results for specific configurations. For configurations without pre-solved cutsets, the model will be quantified to produce cutsets for the previously unanalyzed configuration. If there are any changes in the underlying PRA, the PRA results database in PARAGON will be updated in accordance with the RTR update procedure. The unique aspect of the configuration risk software for the RICT program is the quantification of fire risk and the inclusion of the seismic risk contribution. The other adjustments above are those used for the evaluation of risk under the 10CFR 50.65(a)(4) program.

The R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (REG) PRA calculates Common Cause Basic Event (CCBE) probabilities from alpha factors and places the basic events under appropriate gates in the fault tree.

Adjustments to the Common Cause Failure (CCF) grouping or CCF probabilities are not necessary when a component is taken out-of-service for preventative maintenance:

  • The component is not out-of-service for reasons subject to a potential common cause failure, and so the in-service components are not subject to increases in common cause probabilities. CCF relationships are retained for the remaining in-service components.
  • The net failure probability for the in-service components includes the CCF contribution of the out-of-service component.

As described in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.177 [6], Section A-1.3.2.2, the CCF term should be treated differently when a component is taken down for preventive maintenance (PM) than as described for failure of a component. For PMs, the common cause factor is changed so that E8-2

ENCLOSURE 8 Attributes of the Real Time Risk Model the model represents the unavailability of the remaining component. In the example provided in Reg Guide 1.177 for a 2-train system, the CCF event can be set to zero for PMs. This is done so that the model represents the unavailability of the remaining component, and not the common cause multiplier. The REG approach is conservative in that for a 2-train system, the CCF event is retained for the component removed from service. Likewise, for systems with three or more trains, the CCF events that are related to the out-of-service component are retained.

The Vogtle RICT Safety Evaluation [5] describes the Vogtle approach for modeling common cause events with planned inoperability: "For planned inoperability, the licensee sets the appropriate independent failure to 'true' and makes no other changes while calculating a RICT." The REG approach is the same as this Vogtle approach.

It is recognized that other modifications could be made to CCF factors for planned maintenance, particularly for common cause groups of three or more components. For example, in the Safety Evaluation (SE) in the Vogtle RICT Amendment [5], the NRC identifies a possible planned maintenance CCF modification to "modify all the remaining basic event probabilities to reflect the reduced number of redundant components."

Like Vogtle, the REG CCF approach is a straightforward simplification that has inherent uncertainties. In the context of modifying CCF basic events for PMs, the Vogtle SE states the following:

"The NRC staff also notes that common cause failure probability estimates are very uncertain and retaining precision in calculations using these probabilities will not necessarily improve the accuracy of the results. Therefore, the NRC staff concludes that the licensee's method is acceptable because it does not systematically and purposefully produce non-conservative results and because the calculations reasonably include common cause failures consistent with the accuracy of the estimates." [5]

The REG approach for CCF during PMs is the same as the Vogtle approach; therefore, the REG CCF approach is acceptable for RICT calculations and adjusting the common cause grouping is not necessary for PMs. However, if a numeric adjustment is performed, the RICT calculation shall be adjusted to numerically account for the increased possibility of CCF in accordance with RG 1.177, as specified in Section A-1.3.2.1 of Appendix A of the RG.

For emergent conditions where the extent of condition is not completed prior to entering into the RMAT or the extent of condition cannot rule out the potential for common cause failure, common cause Risk Management Actions (RMAs) are expected to be implemented to mitigate common cause failure potential and impact, in accordance with Exelon procedures.

This is in line with the guidance of NEI 06-09-A [2] and precludes the need to adjust CCF probabilities. However, if a numeric adjustment is performed, the RICT calculation shall be adjusted to numerically account for the increased possibility of CCF in accordance with RG 1.177, as specified in Section A-1.3.2.1 of Appendix A of the RG.

3. Quality Requirements and Consistency of PRA Model and Configuration Risk Tools The approach for establishing and maintaining the quality of the PRA models, including the configuration risk model, includes both a PRA maintenance and update process (described in ), and the use of self-assessments and independent peer reviews (described in ).

The information provided in Enclosure 2 demonstrates that the site's internal event, internal flood, and internal fire PRA models reasonably conform to the associated industry standards endorsed by Regulatory Guide 1.200 [3]. This information provides a robust basis for concluding that the PRA models are of sufficient quality for use in risk-informed licensing actions.

For maintenance of an existing configuration risk model, changes made to the baseline PRA model in translation to the configuration risk model will be controlled and documented. Every PRA Model of Record (MOR) update results in an update to the RTR model in accordance with the FPIE and Fire PRA update procedures. Acceptance testing is performed after every configuration risk model update. This testing also verifies correct mapping of plant components to the basic events in the configuration risk model. The RTR model documentation includes changes made to the MOR model files to work with the RTR model software (e.g., quantification settings) along with verification that results are consistent between the MOR and RTR zero maintenance results. In addition, the RTR update for the MOR includes quantifying the RTR model for representative maintenance configurations and examining the results for appropriateness. These actions are procedurally controlled.

4. Training and Qualification The PRA staff is responsible for development and maintenance of the configuration risk model.

Operations and Work Control staff will use the configuration risk tool under the RICT Program.

PRA Staff and Operations are trained in accordance with a program using National Academy for Nuclear Training (ACAD) documents, which is also accredited by INPO.

5. Application of the Configuration Risk Tool to the RICT Program Scope The PARAGON software will be used to facilitate all configuration-specific risk calculations for the RICT Program implementation. This program is specifically designed to support implementation of RMTS. PARAGON will permit the user to evaluate all plant configurations using appropriate mapping of equipment to PRA basic events. The equipment in the scope of the RICT program will be able to be evaluated in the appropriate PRA models. The RICT program will meet RG 1.174 [4] and Exelon software quality assurance requirements.

Key Assumptions and Sources of Uncertainty

ENCLOSURE 9 Key Assumptions and Sources of Uncertainty

1. Introduction The purpose of this enclosure is to disposition the impact of Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) modeling epistemic uncertainty for the Risk Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program.

Topical Report NEI 06-09-A (Reference 1), Section 2.3.4, item 10 requires an evaluation to determine insights that will be used to develop risk management actions (RMAs) to address these uncertainties. The baseline internal events PRA and Fire PRA (FPRA) models document assumptions and sources of uncertainty and these were reviewed during the model peer reviews. The approach taken is, therefore, to review these documents to identify the items which may be directly relevant to the RICT Program calculations, to perform sensitivity analyses where appropriate, to discuss the results and to provide dispositions for the RICT Program.

The epistemic uncertainty analysis approach described below applies to the internal events PRA and any epistemic uncertainty impacts that are unique to FPRA are also addressed. In addition, Topical Report NEI 06-09-A requires that the uncertainty be addressed in RICT Program Configuration Risk Management Program (CRMP) tools by consideration of the translation from the PRA model to the CRMP tool. The CRMP or real time risk model, also referred to as the PARAGON model, discussed in Enclosure 8 includes internal events, flooding events and fire events. The model translation uncertainties evaluation and impact assessment are limited to new uncertainties that could be introduced by application of the real time risk tool during RICT Program calculations.

2. Assessment of Internal Events PRA Epistemic Uncertainty Impacts In order to identify key sources of uncertainty for RICT Program application, an evaluation of internal events baseline PRA model uncertainty was performed, based on the guidance in NUREG-1855 (Reference 2) and Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) report 1016737 (Reference 3). As described in NUREG-1855, sources of uncertainty include parametric uncertainties, modeling uncertainties, and completeness (or scope and level of detail) uncertainties.

Parametric uncertainty was addressed as part of the Ginna baseline PRA model quantification (Reference 4) and the Fire PRA uncertainty evaluation (Reference 8).

Modeling uncertainties are considered in both the base PRA and in specific risk-informed applications. Assumptions are made during the PRA development as a way to address a particular modeling uncertainty because there is not a single definitive approach. Plant-specific assumptions made for each of the Ginna internal events PRA technical elements are noted in the individual notebooks. These assumptions are reviewed to identify potential key sources of uncertainty. The internal events PRA model uncertainties evaluation is documented in Reference 11 and considers the modeling uncertainties for the base PRA by identifying assumptions, determining if those assumptions are related to a source of modeling uncertainty and characterizing that uncertainty, as necessary. EPRI compiled a listing of generic sources of modeling uncertainty to be considered for each PRA technical element (Reference 3), and the evaluation performed for Ginna (Reference 11) considered each of the generic sources of modeling uncertainty as well as the plant-specific sources.

Completeness uncertainty addresses scope and level of detail. Uncertainties associated with scope and level of detail are documented in the PRA but are only considered for their impact on a specific application. No specific issues of PRA completeness have been identified relative to E9-1

ENCLOSURE 9 Key Assumptions and Sources of Uncertainty the TSTF-505 application, based on the results of the internal events PRA and fire PRA peer reviews.

Additionally, an evaluation of Level 2 internal events PRA model uncertainty was performed, based on the guidance in NUREG-1855 (Reference 2) and Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) report 1026511 (Reference 5). The potential sources of model uncertainty in the Ginna PRA model were evaluated for the 32 Level 2 PRA topics outlined in EPRI 1026511. It has been concluded that the Level 2 related uncertainties outlined in EPRI 1026511 do not present a significant impact on the Ginna RICT calculations.

Based on following the methodology in EPRI 1016737 as supplemented by EPRI 1026511 for a review of sources of uncertainty, the impact of potential sources of uncertainty on the RICT application is discussed in Table E9-1, which identifies those potential sources that may be key sources of uncertainty for the RICT program. Note that RMAs will be developed when appropriate using insights from the PRA model results specific to the configuration.

Assessment of Translation (RTR Model) Uncertainty Impacts Incorporation of the baseline PRA models into the RTR model used for RICT Program calculations may introduce new sources of model uncertainty. Table E9-2 provides a description of the relevant model changes and dispositions of whether any of the changes made represent possible new sources of model uncertainty that must be addressed.

4. Assessment of FPRA Epistemic Uncertainty Impacts The purpose of the following discussion is to address the epistemic uncertainty in the Ginna FPRA. The Ginna FPRA model includes various sources of uncertainty that exist because there is both inherent randomness in elements that comprise the FPRA and because the state of knowledge in these elements continues to evolve. The development of the Ginna FPRA was guided by NUREG/CR-6850 (Reference 6). The Ginna FPRA model used consensus models within the areas described in NUREG/CR-6850.

Ginna used guidance provided in NUREG/CR-6850 and NUREG-1855 (Reference 2) to address uncertainties associated with FPRA for the RICT Program application. As stated in Section 1.5 of NUREG-1855:

Although the guidance in this report does not currently address all sources of uncertainty, the guidance provided on the uncertainty identification and characterization process and on the process of factoring the results into the decision-making is generic and independent of the specific source of uncertainty. Consequently, the guidance is applicable for sources of uncertainty in PRAs that address at-power and low power and shutdown operating conditions, and both internal and external hazards.

NUREG-1855 also describes an approach for addressing sources of model uncertainty and related assumptions. It states:

A source of model uncertainty exists when (1) a credible assumption (decision or judgment) is made regarding the choice of the data, approach, or model used to address an issue because there is no consensus and (2) the choice of alternative data, approaches or models is known to have an impact on the PRA model and results. An impact on the PRA model could include the introduction of a new basic event, changes to basic event probabilities, change in success criteria, or introduction of a new initiating event. A credible assumption is one submitted by relevant experts and which has a sound technical basis. Relevant experts include those individuals with explicit knowledge and experience for the given issue. An example of an assumption related to a source of model uncertainty is battery depletion time. In calculating the depletion time, the analyst may not have any data on the time required to shed loads and thus may assume (based on analyses) that the operator is able to shed certain electrical loads in a specified time.

NUREG-1855 defines a consensus model as:

A model that has a publicly available published basis and has been peer reviewed and widely adopted by an appropriate stakeholder group. In addition, widely accepted PRA practices may be regarded as consensus models. Examples of the latter include the use of the constant probability of failure on demand model for standby components and the Poisson model for initiating events. For risk-informed regulatory decisions, the consensus model approach is one that the NRC has utilized or accepted for the specific risk-informed application for which it is proposed.

E9-8

ENCLOSURE 9 Key Assumptions and Sources of Uncertainty The plant-specific assumptions in the Ginna FPRA (Reference 8) and the 71 potential sources of uncertainty identified in EPRI 1026511 (Reference 5) were evaluated for their potential impact on the RICT application. The EPRI guideline organizes the uncertainties in Topic Areas similar to those outlined in NUREG/CR-6850.

As noted above, the Ginna FPRA was developed using consensus methods in areas outlined in NUREG/CR-6850 and interpretations of technical approaches as required by NRC. Further, appropriate cable impacts were identified for the systems modeled in the Internal Events PRA and were modeled in the Fire PRA. Fire PRA methods were based on NUREG/CR-6850, other more recent NUREGs, e.g., NUREG-7150 (Reference 7), and published frequently asked questions (FAQs) for the FPRA.

Table E9-3 summarizes the results of the plant specific review and EPRI 1026511 review within the Topic Areas outlined by NUREG/CR-6850.

The evaluation of sources of model uncertainty in the FPRA and associated sensitivity studies identified two modeling uncertainties that are be candidates for RMAs for this application. These are:

  • Human error probabilities in the fire PRA In the RICT application, HEPs that contribute significantly to CDF or LERF when technical specification equipment is removed from service are briefed as part of the RMAs. This addresses any uncertainty associated with HEPs.
  • Assumptions regarding impact of transient fires In the RICT application, fire ignition sources including transient fire that contribute significantly to CDF or LERF when technical specification equipment is removed from service are controlled to reduce ignition likelihood as part of the RMAs. This helps to address any uncertainty associated with ignition frequencies including transient fires.

This concluded no significant impact.

The epistemic uncertainty arises from the selection of the input parameters (specifically the HRR and growth rate) and how the parameters are related to the fire initiating event. While industry guidance is available, that guidance is derived from laboratory tests and may not necessarily be representative of randomly occurring events.

The fire modeling results using these input parameters are used to identify a zone of influence (ZOI) for the fire and cables/equipment within that ZOI are assumed to be damaged. In general, the guidance provided for the treatment of fires is conservative and the application of that guidance retains that conservatism. The resulting risk estimates are also conservative.

2) requires that the license amendment request (LAR) provide a description of the implementing programs and procedures regarding the plant staff responsibilities for the Risk Managed Technical Specifications (RMTS) implementation, and specifically discuss the decision process for risk management action (RMA) implementation during a Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT).

This enclosure provides a description of the implementing programs and procedures regarding the plant staff responsibilities for the RICT Program, including training of plant personnel, and specifically discusses the decision process for RMA implementation during extended Completion Times (CT).

2. RICT Program and Procedures Exelon will develop a program description and implementing procedures for the RICT Program.

The program description will establish the management responsibilities and general requirements for risk management, training, implementation, and monitoring of the RICT program. More detailed procedures will provide specific responsibilities, limitations, and instructions for implementing the RICT program. The program description and implementing procedures will incorporate the programmatic requirements for RMTS included in NEI 06-09-A. The program will be integrated with the online work control process. The work control process currently identifies the need to enter an LCO Action statement as part of the planning process and will additionally identify whether the provisions of the RICT program are required for the planned work. The risk thresholds associated with 10CFR50.65(a)(4) will be coordinated with the RICT limits. The Maintenance Rule performance monitoring provisions and Mitigating System Performance Index (MSPI) thresholds will assist in controlling the amount of risk expended in use of the RICT program.

The Operations Department (licensed operators) is responsible for compliance with the TS and will be responsible for implementation of RICTs and RMAs. Entry into the RICT program will require management approval prior to pre-planned activities and as soon as practicable following emergent conditions.

The procedures for the RICT program will address the following attributes consistent with NEI 06-09-A:

  • Plant management positions with authority to approve entry into the RICT Program.
  • Important definitions related to the RICT Program.
  • Departmental and position responsibilities for activities in the RICT Program.
  • Plant conditions for which the RICT Program is applicable.
  • Limitations on implementing RICTs under voluntary and emergent conditions.
  • Implementation of the RICT Program 30-day back stop limit.
  • Use of the Real-Time Risk tool.
  • Guidance on recalculating RICT and risk management action time (RMAT) within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> or within the most limiting front-stop CT after a plant configuration change.

E10-1

  • Requirements to identify and implement RMAs when the RMAT is exceeded or is anticipated to be exceeded, and to consider common cause failure potential in emergent RICTs.
  • Guidance on the use of RMAs including the conditions under which they may be credited in RICT calculations.
  • Conditions for exiting a RICT.
  • Requirements for training on the RICT Program.
  • Documentation requirements related to individual RICT evaluations, implementation of extended CTs, and accumulated annual risk.
3. RICT Program Training The scope of training for the RICT Program will include rules for the new TS program, Real-Time Risk tool software, TS Actions included in the program, and procedures. This training will be conducted for the following Exelon personnel:

Site Personnel

  • Operations Director
  • Operations Personnel (Licensed and Non-Licensed)
  • Operations Training
  • Outage Manager
  • On-line Manager
  • Planning and Scheduling Personnel
  • Work Week Managers
  • Regulatory Assurance Personnel
  • Selected Maintenance Personnel
  • Engineering
  • Risk Management
  • Other Selected Management Corporate Personnel
  • Operations Corporate Functional Area Manager
  • Fleet Outages Corporate Functional Area Manager
  • Licensing Management and Personnel
  • Risk Management Personnel and Managers
  • Training Management and Personnel
  • Other Selected Management Training will be carried out in accordance with Exelon training procedures and processes. These procedures were written based on the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) Accreditation (ACAD) requirements, as developed and maintained by the National Academy for Nuclear Training. Exelon has planned three levels of training for implementation of the RICT Program. They are described below:

E10-2

Level 1 Training This is the most detailed training. It is intended for the individuals who will be directly involved in the implementation of the RICT Program. This level of training includes the following attributes:

  • Specific training on the revised TS
  • Record keeping requirements
  • Case studies
  • Hands-on experience with the Real-Time Risk tool for calculating RMAT and RICT
  • Identifying appropriate RMAs
  • Common cause failure RMA considerations in emergent RICTs
  • Other detailed aspects of the RICT Program Level 2 Training This training is applicable to plant management positions with authority to approve entry into the RICT Program, as well as supervisors, managers, and other personnel who will closely support RICT implementation. These individuals need a broad understanding of the purpose, concepts, and limitations of the RICT Program. Level 2 training is significantly more detailed than Level 3 training (described below), but it is different from Level 1 training in that hands-on time with the Real-Time Risk tool, case studies, and other specifics are not required.

Level 3 Training This training is intended for the remaining personnel who require an awareness of the RICT Program. These employees need basic knowledge of the RICT Program requirements and procedures. This training will cover the RICT Program concepts that are important to disseminate throughout the organization.

Monitoring Program

1. Introduction Section 4.0, Item 12 of the NRC Final Safety Evaluation (Reference 1) for NEI 06-09-A (Reference 2) requires that the license amendment request (LAR) provide a description of the implementation and monitoring program as described in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.174, "An Approach for Using Probabilistic Risk Assessment in Risk-Informed Decisions on Plant-Specific Changes to the Licensing Basis," Revision 1 (Reference 3), and NEI 06-09-A (Reference 2).

(Note that RG 1.174, Revision 2 [Reference 4], issued by the NRC in May 2011, made editorial changes to the applicable section referenced in the NRC safety evaluation for Section 4.0, Item 12.)

This enclosure provides a description of the process applied to monitor the cumulative risk impact of implementation of the Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program, specifically the calculation of cumulative risk of extended Completion Times (CTs). Calculation of the cumulative risk for the RICT Program is discussed in Step 14 of Section 2.3.1 and Step 7.1 of Section 2.3.2 of NEI 06-09-A, Risk Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 4b (Reference 2). General requirements for a Performance Monitoring Program for risk-informed applications are discussed in Element 3 of Regulatory Guide 1.174 (Reference 3).

2. Description of Monitoring Program The RICT Program will require calculation of cumulative risk impact at least every refueling cycle, not to exceed 24 months, consistent with the guidance in NEI 06-09-A (Reference 2). For the assessment period under evaluation, data will be collected for the risk increase associated with each application of an extended CT for both core damage frequency (CDF) and large early release frequency (LERF), and the total risk will be calculated by summing all risk associated with each RICT application. This summation is the change in CDF or LERF above the zero maintenance baseline levels during the period of operation in the extended CT (i.e., beyond the front-stop CT). The change in risk will be converted to average annual values.

The total average annual change in risk for extended CTs will be compared to the guidance of RG 1.174, Figures 4 and 5 (Reference 4), acceptance guidelines for CDF and LERF, respectively.

If the actual annual risk increase is acceptable (i.e., not in Region I of Figures 4 and 5 of RG 1.174), then RICT program implementation is acceptable for the assessment period. Otherwise, further assessment of the cause of exceeding the acceptance guidelines of RG 1.174 and implementation of any necessary corrective actions to ensure future plant operation is within the guidelines will be conducted under the corrective action program.

The evaluation of cumulative risk will also identify areas for consideration, such as:

  • RICT applications that dominated the risk increase
  • Risk contributions from planned vs. emergent RICT applications
  • Risk Management Actions (RMAs) implemented but not credited in the risk calculations
  • Risk impact from applying RICT to avoid multiple shorter duration outages
  • Any specific RICT application that incurred a large proportion of the risk Based on a review of the considerations above, corrective actions will be developed and implemented as appropriate. These actions may include:
  • Administrative restrictions on the use of RICTs for specific high-risk configurations E11-1
  • Additional RMAs for specific configurations
  • Rescheduling planned maintenance activities
  • Deferring planned maintenance to shutdown conditions
  • Use of temporary equipment to replace out-of-service systems, structures, or components (SSCs)
  • Plant modifications to reduce risk impact of future planned maintenance configurations In addition to impacting cumulative risk, implementation of the RICT Program may potentially impact the unavailability of SSCs. The existing Maintenance Rule (MR) monitoring programs under 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) and (a)(2) provide for evaluation and disposition of unavailability impacts which may be incurred from implementation of the RICT Program. The SSCs in the scope of the RICT Program are also in the scope of the MR, which allows the use of the MR Program.

The monitoring program for the MR, along with the specific assessment of cumulative risk impact described above, serve as the Implementation and Monitoring Program for the RICT Program as described in Element 3 of RG 1.174 (Reference 3) and NEI 06-09-A (Reference 2).

Risk Management Action Examples

License Amendment Request Enclosure 12 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket No. 50-244

1. Introduction This enclosure describes the process for identification and implementation of Risk Management Actions (RMA) applicable during extended Completion Times (CT) and provides examples of RMAs. RMAs will be governed by plant procedures for planning and scheduling maintenance activities. The procedures will provide guidance for the determination and implementation of RMAs when entering the Risk-Informed Completion Time (RICT) Program consistent with the guidance provided in NEI 06-09, Revision 0-A (Reference 1).
2. Responsibilities For planned entries into the RICT Program, Work Management is responsible for developing the RMAs with assistance from Operations and Risk Management. Operations is responsible for approval and implementation of RMAs. For emergent entry into extended CTs, Operations is also responsible for developing the RMAs with support from work management and/or risk management as needed.
3. Procedural Guidance For planned maintenance activities, implementation of RMAs will be required if it is anticipated that the Risk Management Action Time (RMAT) will be exceeded. For emergent activities, RMAs must be implemented if the RMAT is reached. Also, if an emergent event occurs requiring recalculation of a RMAT already in place, the procedure will require a reevaluation of the existing RMAs for the new plant configuration to determine if new RMAs are appropriate.

These requirements of the RICT Program are consistent with the guidance of NEI 06-09.

For emergent entry into a RICT, if the extent of condition is not known, RMAs related to the success of redundant and diverse SSCs and reducing the likelihood of initiating events relying on the affected function will be developed and implemented to address the increased likelihood of a common cause event.

RMAs will be implemented in accordance with current procedures (e.g., References 2, 3, 4, and

5) no later than the time at which an Incremental Core Damage Probability (ICDP) of 1E-6 is reached, or no later than the time when an Incremental Large Early Release Probability (ILERP) of 1E-7 is reached. If, as the result of an emergent condition, the Instantaneous Core Damage Frequency (ICDF) or the Instantaneous Large Early Release Frequency (ILERF) exceeds 1E-3 per year or 1E-4 per year, respectively, RMAs are also required to be implemented. These requirements are consistent with the guidelines of NEI 06-09.

By determining which Structures, Systems, or Components (SSCs) are most important from a CDF or LERF perspective for a specific plant configuration, RMAs may be created to protect these SSCs. Similarly, knowledge of the initiating event or sequence contribution to the configuration-specific CDF or LERF allows development of RMAs that enhance the capability to mitigate such events. The guidance in NUREG-1855 (Reference 6) and EPRI TR-1026511 (Reference 7) will be used in examining PRA results for significant contributors for the configuration, to aid in identifying appropriate compensatory measures (e.g., related to risk-significant systems that may provide diverse protection, or important support systems or human actions). Enclosure 9 identifies several areas of uncertainty in the internal events and fire PRAs that will be considered in defining configuration-specific RMAs when entering a RICT.

E12-1

License Amendment Request Enclosure 12 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket No. 50-244 If the planned activity or emergent condition includes an SSC that is identified to impact Fire PRA, as identified in the current Real Time Risk Program, Fire PRA specific RMAs associated with that SSC will be implemented per the current plant procedure.

It is possible to credit RMAs in RICT calculations, to the extent the associated plant equipment and operator actions are modeled in the PRA; however, such quantification of RMAs is neither required nor expected by NEI 06-09. Nonetheless, if RMAs will be credited to determine RICTs, the procedure instructions will be consistent with the guidance in NEI 06-09.

NEI 06-09 classifies RMAs into the three categories described below:

1) Actions to increase risk awareness and control.
  • Shift brief
  • Pre-job brief
  • Training
  • Presence of system engineer or other expertise related to the activity
  • Special purpose procedure to identify risk sources and contingency plans
2) Actions to reduce the duration of maintenance activities.
  • Pre-staging materials
  • Conducting training on mock-ups
  • Performing the activity around the clock
  • Performing walk-downs on the actual system(s) to be worked on prior to beginning work
3) Actions to minimize the magnitude of the risk increase.
  • Suspend or minimize activities on redundant systems
  • Suspend or minimize activities on other systems that adversely affect the CDF or LERF
  • Suspend or minimize activities on systems that may cause a trip or transient to minimize the likelihood of an initiating event that the out-of-service component is meant to mitigate
  • Use temporary equipment to provide backup power, ventilation, etc.
  • Reschedule other risk-significant activities Determination of RMAs involves the use of both qualitative and quantitative considerations for the specific plant configuration and the practical means available to manage risk. The scope and number of RMAs developed and implemented are reached in a graded manner.

Procedural guidance for development of RMAs in support of the RICT program builds off the RMAs developed for other processes, such as the RMAs developed under the 10CFR 50.65(a)(4) program and the protected equipment program. Additionally, Common Cause RMAs are developed to address the potential impact of common cause failures.

E12-2

License Amendment Request Enclosure 12 Adopt Risk Informed Completion Times TSTF-505 Docket No. 50-244 General RMAs are developed for input into the RICT system guidelines. These guidelines are listed in site-specific T&RMs and are developed using a graded approach. Consideration is given for system functionality and includes consideration for common cause impacts within the system. These RMAs include:

  • Consideration of rescheduling maintenance to reduce risk
  • Discussion of RICT in pre-job briefs
  • Consideration of proactive return-to-service of other equipment
  • Efficient execution of maintenance In addition to the RMAs developed qualitatively for the system guidelines, RMAs are developed based on the Real-Time Risk tool to identify configuration-specific RMA candidates to manage the risk associated with internal events, internal flooding, and fire events. These actions include:
  • Identification of important equipment or trains for protection
  • Identification of important Operator Actions for briefings
  • Identification of key fire initiators and fire zones for RMAs in accordance with the site Fire RMA process
  • Identification of dominant initiating events and actions to minimize potential for initiators
  • Consideration of insights from PRA model cutsets, through comparison of importances Common cause RMAs are also developed to ensure availability of redundant SSCs, to ensure availability of diverse or alternate systems, to reduce the likelihood of initiating events that require operation of the out-of-service components, and to prepare plant personnel to respond to additional failures. Common cause RMAs are developed by considering the impact of loss of function for the affected SSCs.

Examples of common cause RMAs include:

  • Performance of non-intrusive inspections on alternate trains
  • Confidence runs performed for standby SSCs
  • Increased monitoring for running components
  • Expansion of monitoring for running components
  • Deferring maintenance and testing activities that could generate an initiating event which would require operation of potentially affected SSCs
  • Readiness of operators and maintenance to respond to additional failures
  • Shift briefs or standing orders which focus on initiating event response or loss of potentially affected SSCs Per Exelon procedure, for emergent conditions where the extent of condition is not performed prior to entering into the Risk Management Action Times or the extent of condition cannot rule out the potential for common cause failure, common cause RMAs are expected to be implemented to mitigate common cause failure potential and impact. These can include the pre-identified RMAs included in the system guidelines as discussed above, as well as alternative common cause RMAs for the specific configuration. Alternate RMAs, including both regular and common cause considerations, are developed for the specific configuration following the steps outlined above.
