SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 3.13 COMPLIANCE WITH NRC REGULATORY GUIDES This section discusses the compliance of the plant design with the guidelines presented in the NRC Regulatory Guides. Where applicable, reference is made to the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) section(s) in which the appropriate design feature is described.

Since the application for the construction permit for this station was docketed in March 1971 ;

therefore, it should be noted that the implementation paragraphs of many of the Regulatory Guides render the provisions contained therein inapplicable to Susquehanna SES by virtue of their effective dates. Nonetheless, the Applicant has evaluated the design and construction against versions of the Regulatory Guides which were current when the application for an Operating License was tendered and has complied with the listed revisions to the extent practicable.

Where compliance to the regulatory guide has been qualified by an interpretation of the regulatory guide, these variances are discussed in either this section or in an appropriate section referenced in a particular response.

The use of an Alternative Source Term (AST) requires changes to source term assumptions and dose acceptance criteria. Regulatory Guides have not been reviewed in detail to determine if exceptions are required for the below listed items. This note captures that the following criteria may be applicable exception(s) to a specific Regulatory Guide.

a. New AST analyses performed in accordance with the guidance in Regulatory Guide 1.183 for the following accidents: Loss of Coolant Accident, Main Steam Line Break, the Refueling Accident and the Control Rod Drop Accident.
b. Dose acceptance criteria is based on the Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) versus thyroid, whole body and beta dose.
c. Changed from 10CFR100.11 to 10CFR50.67 for dose acceptance criteria.
d. Changed from 10CFR50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria 19 to 10CFR50.67 for control room personnel dose acceptance criteria.
e. No longer committed to Regulatory Guides 1.3, 1.5 and 1.25.

3.13.1 DIVISION 1, REGULATORY GUIDES- POWER REACTORS Regulatory Guide 1.1 NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD FOR EMERGENCY CORE COOLING AND CONTAINMENT HEAT REMOVAL SYSTEM PUMPS (November 2, 1970)

As discussed in Subsections 6.2.2 and 6.3.2, Susquehanna SES has been designed to comply with this regulatory guide.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-1

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 Regulatory Guide 1.2 THERMAL SHOCK TO REACTOR PRESSURE VESSELS (November 2, 1970)

With respect to the regulatory positions of this regulatory guide, Susquehanna SES is in compliance as follows:

The reactor pressure vessel utilized for Susquehanna SES employs no significant core or vessel design changes from previously approved BWR pressure vessels such as Browns Ferry.

NOTE: Although this regulatory guide has been withdrawn, any prior or existing commitments based on its use are not altered.

An investigation of the structural integrity of boiling water reactor pressure vessels during a design basis accident (DBA) has been conducted (refer to NEDO-10029). It has been determined, based upon methods of fracture mechanics, that no failure of the vessel by brittle fracture as a result of a DBA will occur.

The investigation included:

a. a comprehensive thermal analysis considering the effect of blowdown and the low-pressure coolant injection (LPCI) system reflooding;
b. a stress analysis considering the effects of pressure, temperature, seismic load, jet load, dead weight, and residual stresses;
c. the radiation effect on material toughness (NOTT shift and critical stress intensity); and
d. methods for calculating crack tip stress intensity associated with a non-uniform stress field following the design basis accident.

This analysis incorporated very conservative assumptions in all areas (particularly in the areas of heat transfer, stress analysis, effects of radiation on material toughness, and crack tip stress intensity). Therefore, the results reported in NEDO-10029 provide an upper bound limit on brittle fracture failure mode studies. Because of the upper bound approach, it is concluded that catastrophic failure of the pressure vessel due to the DBA is shown to be impossible from a fracture mechanics point of view. In the case studied, even if an acute flaw does form on the vessel inner wall, it will not propagate as the result of the DBA.

For further discussion of fracture toughness of the Reactor Pressure Vessel refer to Subsection 5.2.3.3.1.

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 Regulatory Guide 1.26 QUALITY GROUP CLASSIFICATION AND STANDARDS (Revision 3, February 1976)

In general the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.26 are met for the Susquehanna Plant. Some exceptions exist due to the purchase date of the NSSS equipment and design changes in a few systems. These exceptions have been documented in correspondence with NRC. Quality Group classifications are detailed in Tables 3.2-1, 3.2-2, and SSES-FSAR 3.2-3.

Regulatory Guide 1.27 ULTIMATE HEAT SINK FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS (Revision 2, January 1976)

Subject to the exception indicated below, the design of the ultimate heat sink satisfies the requirements of this regulatory guide.

(1)

Reference:

Position C.2. Position C.2 states that the ultimate heat sink features which are not required to be designed to withstand the Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) should, nonetheless, be designed and constructed to withstand the Operating Basis Earthquake and waterflow based on severe historical events in the region. The requirements of this regulatory guide without the necessity for any makeup operations following the occurrence of an SSE. Therefore, the potential makeup water sources, such as the cooling tower basins and the makeup system from the Susquehanna River, are not required to perform any safety-related function following the occurrence of any seismic event, and design criteria specified in Position C.2 have not been employed in their design.

Compliance is discussed in Subsection 9.2.7. A description of the analysis performed to demonstrate the ability of the ultimate heat sink to meet the requirements of this Regulatory Guide is presented in Subsection 9.2.7.3.

Regulatory Guide 1.28 QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS (DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION)

(Revision 1, March 1978)

Regulatory Guide 1.29 SEISMIC DESIGN CLASSIFICATION (Revision 2, February 1976) (Revision 3, September 1978 for the Diesel Generator 'E' Facility)

Subject to the clarifications and/or exceptions indicated below, Susquehanna SES complies with this regulatory guide.

(1)

Reference:

Position C.1.b. For the NSSS, application of this guide is limited to the reactor core and reactor internals which are engineered safety features.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-8

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 (2)

Reference:

Position C.1.d and C.1.g. The normal spent fuel pool cooling system is non-seismic Category I. If a seismic event would occur, cooling of the spent fuel is achieved by use of the RHR Fuel Pool Cooling (RHRFPC) mode as described in Sections 5.4.7.1.1.6, 5.4.7.2.6c, 9.1.3.1, and 9.1.3.3. Either or both of two Seismic Category I ESW makeup water supplies to each pool can provide make-up in support of the RHRFPC mode. Additionally, ESW is capable of supplying make-up for the boiling Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) analysis as described in Appendix 9A.

(3)

Reference:

Position C.1.e. The Main Steam System (MSS) beyond the outer isolation valves up to and including the turbine stop valves and all branch lines 2 1/2 in. in diameter and larger, up to and including the first valve (including their restraints) are not classified Seismic Category I; because portions of the pipe are routed in a non-Seismic Category I building (the Turbine Building). However, the turbine building has been designed to withstand an SSE as stated in Subsection 3. 7b.2.8. Further description of the turbine building is given in Subsection 3.8.4.1; applicable load combinations are given in Table 3.8-10. The subject piping is designed in accordance with ASME Section 111, Class 2 requirements for the OBE and SSE as described in Subsection 10.3.3.

(4)

Reference:

Position C.1.h. The component cooling water portions of the reactor recirculation pumps are not Seismic Class I since they do not involve a safety function.

(5)

Reference:

Paragraph C.2 of the Regulatory Guide. Items which would otherwise be classified non-Seismic Category I, "but whose failure could reduce the functioning" of items important to safety "to an unacceptable safety level" are to be "designed and constructed so that the SSE would not cause such failure." In addition, Paragraph C.4 of the guide requires that the "pertinent quality assurance requirement of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 should be applied to the safety requirements" of such items. Both of these positions are considered to be adequately met by applying the following practices to such items:

(a) Design and design control for such items are carried out in the same manner as that for items directly important to safety. This includes the performance of appropriate design reviews.

(b) Field work is performed under the direction of experienced field construction superintendents and is inspected by the staff of field engineers stationed at the site.

The field engineers are responsible for verifying that construction is performed in accordance with the design drawings and specifications and with applicable standard codes and specifications.

(6)

Reference:

Paragraph C.3 of the Regulatory Guide. Seismic Category I design requirements are required to be extended "to the first seismic restraint beyond the defined boundaries." Since seismic analysis of a piping system requires division of the systems into discrete segments terminated by fixed points, this means that the seismic design cannot be terminated at a seismic restraint, but is extended to the first point in the system which can be treated as an anchor to the plant structure. In addition, Paragraph C.4 of the Regulatory Guide takes the position that "the pertinent quality assurance requirement of Appendix B to 10CFR Part 50 should be applied to the safety requirements" of such items.

Both these requirements are considered to be met adequately by applying the following practices to such items:

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-9

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 (a) Design and design control for such items are carried out in the same manner as that for items directly important to safety. This includes the performance of appropriate design reviews.

(b) Field audits are performed by representatives of the originating design group to assure that the final installation of such items is in accordance with documents that formed the basis for the seismic analysis of the items.

Regulatory Guide 1.30 QUALITY ASSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE INSTALLATION, INSPECTION, AND TESTING OF INSTRUMENTATION AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT (August 11, 1972)

The Susquehanna SES quality program for construction of safety related items was conducted in accordance with the program described in PSAR Appendix D and amendments. Compliance of the Operational Quality Program with this guide is described in Table 17.2-1.

Regulatory Guide 1.31 CONTROL OF STAINLESS STEEL WELDING Control of stainless steel welding (except NSSS scope of supply) complies with Interim Position on Regulatory Guide 1.31 (Branch Technical Position MTEB 5-1 dated November 24, 1975) except as discussed below.

(1)

Reference:

Paragraph B.1.b of Interim Position. Austenitic stainless steel welding filler materials used in the fabrication and installation of ASME Section 111, Class 1, 2, and 3 components are controlled to deposit from 8 to 25 percent delta ferrite. Welding filler materials 309 and 309L are controlled to deposit from 5 to 15 percent delta ferrite and are used only for welding carbon or low alloy steel to austenitic stainless steel. The use of 309L welding filler material is further limited to the overlay deposit on the carbon or low alloy steel component nozzles or connecting pipe when postweld heat treatment is required.

These limits for delta ferrite in austenitic stainless steel welding materials comply with Interim Regulatory Guide 1.31 because the upper limit of 20 percent delta ferrite does not apply to welds that are not heat treated after welding (Paragraph 3b). Solution heat treatment, although not required after welding, is permitted to avoid sensitization.

The procedure for determining the amount of delta ferrite in each heat or lot of austenitic stainless steel welding material does not comply with the Interim Position of the Regulatory Guide. Determination of delta ferrite is in accordance with ASME Section Ill, Division 1, 1974 Edition, Paragraph NB02433, except that an undiluted weld deposit is required for each heat of bare wire used with the Gas Metal-Arc process.

(2)

Reference:

Paragraph B.2 of the Interim Position. This paragraph is complied with for all tests and examinations required by ASME Section Ill, Division 1, 1974 Edition.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-10

SSES-FSAR Text Rev, 76 (3)

Reference:

Paragraph B.3.a of the Interim Position. This paragraph is not complied with.

Magnetic measurement of production welds for delta ferrite is unnecessary when austenitic stainless steel welding materials are controlled to deposit 8 to 25 percent delta ferrite based on chemistry, except for 309 and 309L welding materials which are controlled to deposit 5 to 15 percent delta ferrite based on chemistry.

Three Bechtel projects are committed to measuring production welds for delta ferrite in order to collect data and demonstrate that the welding material controls described above are more than adequate for the purpose of avoiding microfissuring. Since this represents a sufficient number of welds for the purpose of collecting data, measurement of production welds for delta ferrite on this project is not planned.

(4)

Reference:

Paragraph B.3.b of the Interim Position. This paragraph is complied with for welding material certification.

(5)

Reference:

Paragraphs B.4.a, b, and c of the Interim Position. These paragraphs are not complied with since measurement of production welds for delta ferrite is not performed.

The NSSS scope of supply control of welding is described in Subsection 5.2.3.4.2.

(1)

Reference:

Position C.1. Contamination of austenitic stainless steel (Type 300 series) by compounds that could cause stress corrosion cracking is avoided during all stages of fabrication and installation. Cleaning is limited to solutions that contain not more than 100 ppm of chlorides. Rinsing or flushing is with water containing less than 100 ppm of chlorides. Foreign substances in contact with austenitic stainless steel (die lubricants, penetrant materials, marking materials, masking tape, etc.) either are controlled to contain the following amounts of contaminates, or are removed immediately following the operation in which they are used.

1. The inorganic halogen content shall be less than 200 ppm by weight.
2. The halogen (inorganic and organic) content shall be less than 1 percent by weight measured in accordance with ASTM D808-63.
3. Sulfur content shall be less than 1 percent by weight as measured in accordance with ASTM D129-64.
4. Total low melting point metal (lead, bismuth, zinc, mercury, antimony, and tin) content shall be less than 200 ppm by weight and no individual metal content shall be greater than 50 ppm by weight.

Completed components are packaged so that they are protected from the weather, dirt, wind, water spray, and other deleterious environmental conditions that may be encountered during shipment and subsequent site storage.

In the field, austenitic stainless steel components are stored clean and dry to prevent contamination. System hydrostatic tests are performed with demineralized water containing less than 1O ppm of chlorides. The influent water quality during final flushing or preoperational testing of the completed system is at least equivalent to the quality of demineralized water as defined in ANSI N45.2.1-1973.

Leachable chlorides and fluorides in nonmetallic insulation materials, which come in contact with austenitic stainless steel, are held to the lowest practical level by the inclusion of the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.36 in the insulation purchase specifications.

Reference:

Position C.2. All grades of austenitic stainless steels (Type 300 series) are required to be furnished in the solution heat treated condition before fabrication or assembly into components or systems. The solution heat treatment varies according to the applicable ASME or ASTM material specification.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-14

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 (3)

Reference:

Position C.3. All austenitic stainless steels are furnished in the solution heat treated condition in accordance with the material specification. For material that has been solution heat treated by the material manufacturer, testing to determine susceptibility to intergranular corrosion is performed only when required by the material specification.

During fabrication and installation austenitic stainless steels are not permitted to be exposed to temperatures in the range of 800° to 1500°F, except for welding and hot forming. Welding practices are controlled to avoid severe sensitization, as described in (6),

and solution heat treatment in accordance with the material specification is required following hot forming in the temperature range 800° to 1500°F. Unless otherwise required by the material specification, the maximum time for cooling from the solution heat treat temperature to below 800°F is 3 minutes. Corrosion testing in accordance with ASTM A 262-70, Practice A or E, or ASTM A 393 may be required if the maximum length of time for cooling to below 800°F is exceeded or the solution heat treat condition is in doubt.

(4)

Reference:

Position C.4. Use of low carbon (0.03 percent maximum) unstabilized austenitic stainless steel is not required since the reactor coolant meets the conductivity and chloride limits of Table 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.56. However, it is used as described in Section 6(c) below.

(5)

Reference:

Position C.5. Heat treating austenitic stainless steel in the temperature range 800 to 1500°F is not permitted and solution heat treatment is required following hot forming.

Since sensitization is avoided, testing to determine susceptibility to intergranular attack is not performed.

(6)

Reference:

Position C.6. Welding practices are controlled to avoid severe sensitization in the heat-affected zone of unstabilized austenitic stainless steel as described below. Unless otherwise stated, the position applies to both Bechtel and Bechtel suppliers and subcontractors.

a) Weld Heat Input Bechtel controls weld heat input during field installation by using shielded metal-arc welding and gas tungsten-arc welding processes only, and by limiting the size of electrodes for each process to 5/32 in. and 1/8 in. diameter maximum, respectively.

In addition to these two processes, Bechtel suppliers and subcontractors are permitted to use automatic submerged-arc welding and gas metal-arc welding.

Hardsurfacing operations are not included.

b) lnterpass Temperature The interpass temperature is controlled so as not to exceed 350°F.

c) Carbon Content Susceptibility to sensitization is reduced significantly by selecting materials with the lowest reported carbon content. Specifically Type 304 stainless steel with carbon FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-15

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 content limited to .030 maximum or 304L Stainless steel with carbon content limited to .030 maximum was used as follows:

Pipe Description Size Material Head Spray 6" 304SS Core Spray Influent 12" 304SS Recirculation System 4" 304SS Standby Liquid Control 1 1/2" 304LSS Reactor Water Cleanup 4" 304LSS (Effluent from Reactor)

Instrument Piping 1" & 2" 304LSS Bottom Drain 4" 304LSS Vent, Drain, and Test Connections 1" 304LSS d) Solution Heat Treatment All austenitic stainless steels are provided in the solution annealed condition. This is accomplished by following the manufacturer solution annealing by water quenching from the solution annealing temperature to below 800°F in 3 minutes.

Solution heat treatment is not required after welding.

Severe sensitization is avoided by not permitting heat treatment in the temperature range 800 to 1500°F following welding. This requires a special technique when welding stainless steel safe ends (transition pieces) to carbon or low-alloy steel component nozzles or piping. Specifically, a 309L stainless steel overlay or an lnconel weld overlay is deposited on the component and the component is postweld heat treated. Following final postweld heat treatment of the component, the stainless steel safe end is welded to the weld overlay using 308 or 308L austenitic stainless steel or lnconel type welding materials.

lntergranular corrosion testing is not performed on a routine basis. Performing intergranular corrosion tests for each welding procedure serves no useful purpose when welding practices and reactor coolant water chemistry are controlled as described above.

Regulatory Guide 1.46 PROTECTION AGAINST PIPE WHIP INSIDE CONTAINMENT (May 1973)

The criteria given in NRC Branch Technical Position MEB3-1, dated 11-24-75, is used in lieu of the criteria prescribed in Regulatory Guide 1.46 dated May 1973 for the non-NSSS scope of supply.

Section 3.6 describes how the present design meets these protection requirements.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-16

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 This regulatory guide is applicable to the main steam, HPCI, RCIC, RWCU, SLCS and recirculation pipelines within the NSSS scope of supply.

The design of the containment structure, component arrangement, Class 1 pipe runs, pipe restraints and compartmentalization was done in consonance with the acknowledgement of protection against dynamic effects associated with postulated rupture of piping. Analytically sized and positioned pipe restraints were engineered to preclude damage based on the pipe break evaluation.

Pipe whip requirements for fluid system piping within the primary containment that under normal operation, has service temperatures 200° For pressures greater than 275 psig comply with ANS 58.2 - "Design Basis for Protection of Light Water Nuclear Power Plants Against the Effects of Postulated Pipe Rupture" and Regulatory Guide 1.46 except as delineated in the following criteria for no breaks in Class 1 piping:

1. If Equation 10 of NB-3653-1, ASME Code Ill results in Sn less than or equal to 2.4 Sm for ferritic or austenitic steels, no other requirement need be met. Stress range should be calculated between any two load sets (including zero load set) according to NB-3600 for upset and an OBE event transient.
2. If Equation 10 results in Sn between 2.4 Sm and 3,0 Sm for ferritic or austenitic steels, the cumulative usage factor, U, calculated on the basis of Equation 14 of NB-3653.6, must be less than 0.1.
3. If Equation 10 results in Sn greater than or equal to 3.0 Sm for ferritic or austenitic steels, then the stress value in Equations 12 and 13 of NB-3653.6 must not exceed 2.4 Sm and the cumulative usage factor, U, must be less than 0.1.

Regulatory Guide 1.47 BYPASSED AND INOPERATIONAL STATUS INDICATION FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SAFETY SYSTEMS (May 1973)

The design loading combinations for non-NSSS systems for Positions C.1 to C.12 are described in Table 3.9-6. Operability of active pumps and valves is assured as described in Subsection 3.9.3.2.

The design limits and loading combinations for seismic category I fluid system components for the Diesel Generator 'E' facility are in compliance with this regulatory guide.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-17

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 GE practice is representative of industry practice and is in general agreement with the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.48 with the following clarifications:

a. The probability of an OBE of the magnitude postulated for the Susquehanna SES is consistent with its classification as an Emergency Event. However, for design conservatism, loads due to the OBE vibratory motion have been included under upset conditions. Loads due to the OBE vibratory motion plus associated transients, such as turbine trip, have been considered in the equipment design under emergency conditions consistent with the probability of the OBE occurrence.
b. The use of increased stress levels for Class 2 components is consistent with industry practice as specified in ASME B&PV Code Section Ill.

For a comparison of NSSS compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.48 see Table 3.13-1. This comparison reflects a GE practice on BWR 4's and 5's and therefore, is applicable to the Susquehanna SES (see Subsections 3.9.2 and 3.9.3).

Regulatory Guide 1.49 POWER LEVELS OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS (Revision 1, December 1973)

Regulatory Guide 1.49 states, in part, Anaylses and evaluation in support of the application should be made at an assumed core power level equal to 1.02 times the proposed licensed power level. .. for (a) normal operating conditions, (b) transient conditions anticipated during the life of the facility ... and (c) accident conditions necessary to evaluate the adequacy of structures, systems and components provided for the prevention of accidents and the mitigation of the consequences of accidents.

Fuel dependent analyses include the effects of a 2 percent power uncertainty factor discussed in Regulatory Guide 1.49. Most of the analyses were performed at 100% power level and the impact of the two percent power uncertainty factor is accounted for either statistically or through the inherent conservatism of the methodology. For three of the analyses, ASME over-pressurization (Section 5.2), loss of feedwater flow (Section 15.2.7), and LOCA-ECCS analyses (Section 6.3.3),

the effects of the 2 percent power uncertainty factor are not directly included in methodology used for the analyses. Therefore, these analyses were performed at 102% of CPPU rated power to account for the 2 percent power uncertainty factor. Non-fuel dependent analysis power levels include a two percent power uncertainty factor unless a smaller value is specifically justified or the uncertainty is accounted for in the analysis methods. Additionally, Regulatory Guide 1.49 does not apply to some events that have been historically analyzed from nominal initial conditions, which include the Anticipated Transient Without Scram (section 15.8) and Station Blackout (section 15.9) events.

Thus, the SSES units continue to meet the intent of the Guide, which is to assure that all design calculations are performed at the highest possible power level that the plant can be operating.

The filter adsorber systems are designed to mitigate exposures resulting from a design basis accident. The Control Structure Emergency Outside Air Supply System (CSEOASS) and the Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) are the only systems that are subject to the requirements of this regulatory guide.

Subject to the clarifications and/or exceptions indicated below, the general intent of this regulatory guide has been met by the current design of the plant. Items (1) through (10) and (13) apply to Revision 1 and items (11) and (12) apply to Revision 2 of the Regulatory Guide 1.52.

(1)

Reference:

Position C.2.a. Moisture separators are used only where moisture impingement may be a problem. The SGTS is the only system with moisture separators.

Heaters are used on both systems (SGTS and CSEOASS) to control humidity before filtration.

(2)

Reference:

Position C.2.d. Devices, such as pressure relief valves, are not used on either the CSEOASS or SGTS. Neither filtration system is subject to containment pressures (internal or external) or hazardous pressure surges.

(3)

Reference:

Position C.2.g. The pertinent pressure drop which is instrumented to signal, alarm, and record in the control room is the pressure drop across the first HEPA filter. The SGTS also alarms on high differential pressure across the entire filter system. The flow rate and low flow alarm also indicate proper functioning of the fan.

(4)

Reference:

Position C.2.i. Overall design considerations include reduction of radiation exposures during routine maintenance and testing insofar as effectually possible. It is envisioned, however, that workers will not handle filter units after a design basis accident and will thereby avoid exposures associated with immediate post-accident filter handling.

Accordingly, no efforts were made toward a unitized atmosphere cleanup train design in the interest of accident exposure reduction.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-19

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 (5)

Reference:

Position C.3.d. Since none of the HEPA filters separators are exposed to potential iodine removal spray, the units are not designed for contact with the spray.

The referenced military standards (MIL-F-51068C and MIL-F-51079A) have been deleted, but represent acceptable standards for installed (or previously purchased)

HEPA filters. New HEPA filters will meet the standards presented in ASME AG-1-1997.

(6)

Reference:

Position C.3.e through C.3.h. In these sections and all others where reference is made to ORNL-NSIC-65, the reference is understood to be to ERDA 76-21 or ANSI N509 where appropriate.

(7)

Reference:

Position C.3.i. The adsorber beds are designed for 2.5 mg of iodine (both stable and radioactive) per gram of activated carbon averaged over the bed depth. This is consistent with the background information. Each replacement batch of impregnated, activated carbon shall meet the qualification and batch test results summarized in Table 5-1 of ANSI N509-1980, rather than those of Table 2 in Regulatory Guide 1.52, Revision 1, except that the 350 ft3 batch size limit specified in Table 2 shall be retained.

(8)

Reference:

Position C.3.k. All systems are designed for low flow in order to control temperature rise. Oxidation effects are considered. A water spray system, provided only to minimize property loss in the event of fire, is designed for the control structure OA supply units, to extinguish a fire by flooding the adsorber units. The fire extinguishing system in the SGTS filter, sprays large quantities of water over the charcoal adsorber, until the charcoal temperature drops below its ignition temperature. The water is removed from the SGTS housing through automatic drain valves. The sprays or quenches are not provided for prevention of fire inception.

(9)

Reference:

Positions C.4.c and C.4.d. The spacing requirement is applicable to systems requiring operator access to remove filters and adsorber trays. Where unnecessary, the space is not provided, e.g., gasketless carbon absorbers which are filled and emptied externally.

(10)

Reference:

Position C.4.d. The length of pipe associated with manifolding would promote plate-out of the constituents of the sampled gas stream, thereby resulting in erroneous test results. The test probes are located in readily accessible locations; a minimum run of piping is used and manifolding is not employed.

(11)

Reference:

Positions C.5.a, C.5.c and C.5.d - In-place testing criteria identified in Paragraph C.5.a, C.5.c and C.5.d of Rev. 2 dated March, 1978 of the Regulatory Guide 1.52 are implemented, however, the testing frequency for C.5.c is 24 months rather than 18 months.

Reference:

Positions C.6.a and C.6.b- Laboratory Testing Criteria for activated carbon identified in Paragraph C.6.a and C.6.b of Rev. 2 dated March, 1978 of the Regulatory Guide 1.52 are implemented with the following exceptions:

a. Representative samples of used activated carbon will be tested at :::;30°C and ~70%

relative humidity and in accordance with ASTM D3803-89.

b. New activated carbon will meet the performance requirements and physical property specifications given in Table 5-1 of ANSI N509-1980.

Regulatory Guide 1.63 ELECTRIC PENETRATION ASSEMBLIES IN CONTAINMENT STRUCTURES FOR WATER COOLED NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS (Revision 1, May 1977}

Since the construction permit for Susquehanna SES was issued in November 1973, the provisions of Revision 1 to this regulatory guide (which supplements IEEE 317-1976) were not specifically considered in the design of Susquehanna SES. The design of the electric penetration assemblies is therefore in compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.63 dated October 1973 (which supplements IEEE 317-1972). Specifically, Sections 4.2.3, 4.2.4, 5.1.6, 5.2.2, 6.2, 6.3.3, and 6.4 of IEEE 317-1976 have not been incorporated.

The penetration assemblies are type tested. There are no provisions for periodic testing under simulated fault conditions.

Electrical penetration circuits are summarized as follows:

1. 480 Volt Circuits Loads powered from 480 volt motor control centers are supplied via electrical penetrations equipped with #4 awg, #1 O awg, or 4/0 awg copper conductors. Typical single line diagrams for each penetration conductor size are shown on Figure 3.13-1.

Overcurrent protection for penetrations considers both connected load characteristics and penetration time-current capabilities in accordance with the following guidelines:

a. 480V motor, less than 1.5 hp (Figure 3.13-2A}
1. Penetration conductor #1 O awg
2. Overcurrent protection redundant, adjustable, magnetic only circuit breakers with a maximum setpoint of 45 amperes and a minimum setpoint which exceeds 200% of the motor locked rotor current.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-23

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76

b. 480V motor, 1O hp or less (Figure 3.13-2B)
1. Penetration conductor #1 O awg
2. Overcurrent protection redundant, fixed, thermal magnetic circuit breakers with a maximum thermal trip rating of no more than 40 amperes and a minimum thermal trip rating which exceeds 200% of the motor full load current.
c. 480V motor, 10.1 to 20 hp (Figure 3.13-3)
1. Penetration conductor #4 awg
2. Overcurrent protection redundant, fixed, thermal magnetic circuit breakers with a maximum thermal trip rating of no more than 100 amperes and a minimum thermal trip rating which exceeds 200% of the motor full load current.

Credit is not taken for penetration protection provided by other overload detectors, such as, motor overloads shown in Figure 3.13-1. Penetration seal withstand curves (Figures 3.13-2, 3.13-3, and 3.13-8) apply for the condition when mechanical seal integrity is maintained, but electrical integrity may be comprised.

Adequacy of the subject molded case circuit breaker selections are demonstrated on Figures 3.13-2, 3.13-3 and 3.13-8 by showing time-current characteristic curves with the protective device total clearing time below, and to the left of the penetration seal withstand curve.

2. 120 Volt AC Control Circuits There are two types of 120 volt AC control circuits to be considered: (1) circuit powered by a control transformer located in an MCC cubicle and (2) circuit powered by a 120 volt AC instrument distribution panel (see Figure 3.13-4). #14 AWG is the minimum size used for control circuits.
a. The motor control circuits are powered by control transformers located in the respective MCC cubicles. Control transformers are sized to meet the requirement of the control circuit (one for each starter). Typically a 120 VA control transformer is used with a NEMA Size 1 starter and a 200 VA is used with a NEMA Size 2 starter.

The largest control transformer used in connection with a penetration is 350 VA.

The maximum short circuit current that can be delivered by a 350 VA transformer in a control circuit is approximately 100 amps. A fuse, rated 3.2 amp or less, located in the respective MCC provides the circuit protection. Since sustained short circuit current will destroy the control transformer before the integrity of the penetration assembly is compromised, backup fuses are not utilized (refer to Figure 3.13-4).

b. Control circuits that emanate from the fuse control panel will have a 1O amp or lower rated fuse at the panel and as a back-up breaker either an identical fuse in series or a breaker in the 120 V instrument AC distribution panel. 20 amp or smaller breaker or fuse will be used for backup protection (refer Figure 3.13-4). All breakers shown in Figure 3.13-4, Case 2, are molded case and self-actuated (short circuit current trip with manual closing).

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-24

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76

3. 125 voe Control Circuits Each 125 VOC control circuit is protected by a 20 amp or smaller fuse located in a control panel with back-up protection provided by a 20 amp breaker (ITE type E) in the de distribution panel. The mechanical integrity of the penetration assembly is maintained under overload or faults conditions (refer to Fig. 3.13-5).
4. 120 Volt Lighting and Space Heater Circuits Mechanical integrity of all 120 V lighting and space heater circuits is maintained under overload or fault condition. Each type of circuit is discussed below:
a. Each 120 V lighting circuit is provided with a 20 amp breaker with back-up protection of a 50 amp breaker as shown on Fig. 3.13-6.
b. Each 120 V motor (except reactor recirc pump motor) or motor operated valve (MOV) space heater is provided with a 20 amp or smaller fuse protection. Backup protection is provided by a 20 amp or smaller breaker located in a lighting panel (see 4(a) of above).
c. Each of the 120 V space heater circuits for the reactor recirc pump motors is provided with a 40 amp breaker as the primary protection. Backup protection is provided by a 50 amp breaker located in a 280/120 V lighting panel.
5. Medium Voltage Circuits (above 480 volt)

The only medium voltage equipment located inside the containment are two variable frequency reactor recirc. pump motors. These two recirc. pump motors are fed by two independent 13.8 kV M-G (motor-generator) sets with the generator output rated at 3,920 volts. The M-G sets are located in the turbine building. A calculated M-G set generator decrement curve together with the penetration cable thermal curves is shown on Figure 3.13-7. The maximum short circuit current that can be produced by the generator is 7000 amp asymmetrical. Figure 3.13-7 shows that a line-to-line short circuit (across lines which do not furnish input power to the voltage regulator) of about 6,000 amps can be sustained if the generator field breaker and the main feeder to the M-G set drive motor are not tripped. However, the existing protection schemes have redundant detection devices and redundant protection devices for the penetration circuits. In addition, redundant Class 1E overcurrent protection is provided (one overcurrent relay for each Recirculation Pump Trip (RPT) breaker). This protection scheme ensures that the fault current would be cleared before any damage. Therefore, as shown by Figure 3.13-7, the mechanical integrity of the penetration assembly is maintained under the most severe fault condition.

6. Instrumentation Circuits The instrumentation circuits are low level signal circuits (ma or mv range) such as thermocouples, RTO, etc. These circuits are current limiting. In addition, instrument cables are not routed with any other types of circuits in the same raceway. Therefore, backup protection is not needed.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-25

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 The requirement for periodic testing and inspecting of fuses, breakers, and containment circuit protection schemes are stated in SSES Technical Requirements Manual.

Requirements for back-up penetration circuit protection are met.

Regulatory Guide 1.84 is frequently revised to append new Code Cases. No previous compliance requirements to earlier revisions are negated by updates to this Regulatory Guide.

The Susquehanna SES for the non-NSSS scope of supply will use only those code cases listed in this regulatory guide. In accordance with Section D of the Regulatory Guide, Code Cases approved by earlier revisions of the Regulatory Guide may have been invoked. In addition, ASME Code Case N-316 and N-640 have been approved by the NRG for use at Susquehanna Steam Electric Station. Should it be deemed necessary or beneficial to apply other code cases, a specific request shall be made to the NRG.

ASME Code Case N-516-2 has been approved by the NRC for use during the second 10-year inspection interval at Susquehanna SES in a letter dated February 21, 2002 (Relief Request for Authorization to use Code Case N-516-2 as an Alternative to the ASME Code). The use of Code Case N-516-2 is subject to the following three conditions and limitations:

1. Performance qualifications shall be in accordance with Paragraph 3.2 in Code Case N-516-2, except that immediate retest following a failed mechanical bend test shall be in accordance with ASME,Section IX, QW-320.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-31

2. Procedure qualification shall be in accordance with Paragraph 3.1 in Code Case N-516-2. The Alternative Procedure Qualification Requirements of Paragraph 5.0 shall not be used except as noted in Paragraph 4.(b)(4) for the additional requirements for qualification of filler metal.
3. When welding is to be performed on high neutron fluence Class 1 material, then a mockup, using material with similar fluence levels, should be welded to verify that adequate crack prevention measures were used.

The NSSS scope of supply procedure for meeting the regulatory requirements is to obtain NRC approval for code cases applicable to Class I components only. Approval of code cases for Class 2 and 3 equipment was not required at the time of the design of the Susquehanna SES, and is not currently required by 10CFR50.55a. Therefore, GE believes that this procedure in conjunction with 10CFR50APPB and other regulatory requirements provide adequate assurance of quality in the design and fabrication of safety-related equipment (see Subsection 5.2.1.2).

Regulatory Guide 1.91 EVALUATION OF EXPLOSIONS POSTULATED TO OCCUR ON TRANSPORTATION ROUTES NEAR NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SITES (January 1975)

An examination of the historical data for the surface transportation of explosive material near the Susquehanna SES indicates that the commercial truck and rail transportation routes are farther from the station's vital structures than the distances delineated in Figure 2 of this regulatory guide for plants situated in Tornado Region 1, as defined in Regulatory Guide 1. 76. Although the closest point of approach from the Susquehanna River to the vital structures of the Susquehanna SES is less than the distance specified in this regulatory guide for the largest probable quantity of explosive material transported by ship (i.e., 5,000 tons of TNT), the Susquehanna River is not commercially navigable for purposes of transporting large quantities of explosives. Therefore, this type of accident is not considered to be probable enough to evaluate.

Regulatory Guide 1.92 COMBINING MODAL RESPONSES AND SPATIAL COMPONENTS IN SEISMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS (Revision 1, February 1976)

Since the construction permit for the Susquehanna SES was issued in November 1973, the methods of combining modal responses and spatial components in seismic response analysis, as described in this regulatory guide, were not specifically considered in the original design, except for the Diesel Generator 'E' facility.

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 Regulatory Guide 1.97 INSTRUMENTATION FOR LIGHT WATER COOLED NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS TO ASSESS PLANT CONDITIONS DURING AND FOLLOWING AN ACCIDENT (Revision 2, December 1980)

The accident monitoring instrumentation was designed prior to this Regulatory Guide being issued.

The instrumentation for accident monitoring has not been evaluated against Revision 1 to the Regulatory Guide. With the exception of the item discussed below, our position on Revision 2 to the Regulatory Guide is provided in PLA-965, dated November 13, 1981. Compliance is described in more detail in the applicable sections of Chapter 7.

The instrumentation for accident monitoring is not specifically identified on the control panels. The control panel layouts and instrument identification at Susquehanna SES are based on good human factors engineering for the presentation of information to the control room operator. The Susquehanna SES Detailed Control Room Design Review validated our choice of instrument identification scheme. That review indicated that the use of redundant labeling as would have been required to specifically identify accident monitoring equipment would serve to confuse and distract operator performance rather than enhance it.

Subject to the clarifications delineated in PLA-2222, the exception above and the exceptions discussed in FSAR section 7.1.2.6.21, the provisions of this regulatory guide are met.

Regulatory Guide 1.100 SEISMIC QUALIFICATION OF ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS (March 1976)

The implementation paragraph of this regulatory guide states that the requirements of the position statements will only be applied to plants that received construction permits after November 16, 1976. The Construction Permit for Susquehanna SES was issued in November 1973 and therefore the guidelines of this regulatory guide were not utilized in the design of this nuclear power station. However, PP&L conducted a reassessment of the original equipment qualification using the criteria contained in Regulatory Guide 1.100, Rev. 1.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-35

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 Seismic qualification of the safety related electric equipment (non-NSSS scope of supply) has been conducted in accordance with the IEEE Standard 344-1971. Section 3.1 O describes the complete qualification methods and procedures that have been utilized.

The safety-related electric equipment (NSSS scope of supply) meets IEEE 323-1971 and IEEE 344-1971.

Regulatory Guide 1.104 OVERHEAD CRANE HANDLING SYSTEMS FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS (February 1976)

Subject to the clarifications and exceptions indicated below, the safety related overhead crane handling systems of this station comply with the provisions of this regulatory guide.

(1)

Reference:

Position C.1.b(2). The nil-ductility transition temperature for the structural steel associated with the cranes was not determined as suggested by this position. Position C.1.b(3) states that a cold proof test represents an acceptable alternative to the requirements of Position C.1.b(2). Accordingly, a cold proof test will be performed in accordance with the general procedures and testing frequency suggested in Position C.4.d except as modified in Item 7 below.

(2)

Reference:

Position C.3.f. The paragraph states that "The fleet angles between individual sheaves for rope should not exceed 1 1/2 degrees.," however, the fleet angles for the cranes that have been purchased for the Susquehanna SES are 3 degrees 7 minutes.

This position also states that "the pitch diameter of the lead sheave should be 30 times the rope diameter for the 180-degree reverse bend, 26 times the rope diameter for running sheaves and drum, ... ". The pitch diameter of the running sheaves is 24 times that of the wire rope diameter.

FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-36

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 Consistent with established industry standards and in light of the limited number of loading cycles, the present design is acceptable.

(3)

Reference:

Position C.3.g. This position states that the head block, rope reeving system and load block should be subjected to a load test of 200 percent of the design rated load.

No such test has been specified for these components. ANSI Standard B30.2 allows for a 125 percent load test of these components and the purchase orders for these cranes have so specified this type of test.

(4)

Reference:

Position C.3.j. This position suggests that the designer should provide means within the reeving system located on the head or on the load block combinations to absorb or control the kinetic energy of rotating machinery prior to the incident of two blocking or load hangup. As an alternative to the regulatory position, each crane is provided with dual upper limit switches to preclude the possibility of a "two block" occurrence and an overload switch combined with overcurrent and rate of current rise cutouts to prevent a load hangup.

(5)

Reference:

Position C.3.p. This paragraph states that provisions should be made for manual operation of the brakes.

This regulatory position has not been incorporated in that there has been no provision made for manual bridge and trolley holding brake operation.

The position also recommends that the trolley and bridge speeds be limited to a maximum speed of 30 fpm for the trolley and 40 fpm for the bridge. The maximum speed for the bridge is actually 50 fpm, but the potential effects of this difference in maximum speed is compensated for by the substantial runway length (approximately 320 ft.) and a stepless type bridge speed control. Administrative controls will be instituted to ensure that a maximum trolley speed of 30 fpm is used when the main hoist is loaded.

(6)

Reference:

Position C.4.b. This position states that the complete hoisting machinery should be allowed to "two block" during the hoisting test and should also be tested for ability to sustain a load hangup condition. The testing of these conditions was not specified in the purchasing documents for these cranes since the reeving system is not designed for two blocking or load hangup as indicated in Item 4 above, which describes the alternate design that has been incorporated in lieu of the regulatory position C.3.j.

(7)

Reference:

Position C.4.d. This position states that the cold proof test should be performed at or below the minimum operating temperature of the structural members essential to the structural integrity of the crane and should use a dummy load equal to 1.25 times the maximum working load. It further states that "If it is not feasible to achieve the minimum operating temperature during the test, the dummy load should be increased beyond the design rated load 1.5 percent per °F temperature difference." The minimum operating temperature for the cranes is 60°F and by appropriate scheduling of the cold proof test and adjustment of the HVAC systems, it will be attempted to maintain this temperature. However, in no case will the dummy load be increased above an amount of 125 percent of the rated load. Crane testing in excess of 125 percent of the rated load will adversely affect the safety of the cranes, since any such tests may propagate undetectable material defects and thus increase the probability of crane component failures.

Furthermore, such testing would violate the ANSI Standard B30.2 and Title 29CFR Part/1910.179(k). This position also states that cold-proof "test frequency should be approximately 40 months or less .... " The cold proof test will be conducted only once FSAR Rev. 70 3.13-37

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 because the manufacturer recommends against repeatedly overloading the crane.

Thereafter, all accessible welds whose failure could cause a critical load drop will be nondestructively examined every 4 years or less. This exception is consistent with Section 2.4 of NU REG 0554.

Regulatory Guide 1.105 INSTRUMENT SPANS AND SET POINTS (Revision 1, November 1976)

Subject to the clarifications and/or exceptions indicated below, the provisions of this regulatory guide are met by the current plant design.

(1)

Reference:

Position C.4. The guide requires that instrumentation not exhibit certain mechanical characteristics during the environmental qualification tests performed in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.89. These tests have not been performed for the Susquehanna SES as discussed in the response to Regulatory Guide 1.89.

(2)

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 76 (2)

Reference:

Position C.2.a. Exception is taken to the statement that testing of diesel generators occur at least once every 18 months. The 18 month requirement is interpreted to mean once per refueling cycle. Periodic testing is performed in accordance with the Technical Specifications, and the test interval may be replaced with performance-based, risk-informed test intervals. This statement in Regulatory Position C.2.a clarifies the statement in Section 6.6.2 of IEEE 387-1977 that operational tests be performed "at acceptable intervals." Despite the exception to Regulatory Position C.2.a of RG 1.108, exception is not being taken to the statement in Section 6.6.2 of IEEE 387-1977 that the testing be performed at acceptable intervals. The performance-based, risk-informed test intervals are determined in accordance with Technical Specification 5.5.15 as approved by the NRC and are acceptable.
