Chapter 1 - The Facility CHAPTER 1 - THE FACILITY

1.1 INTRODUCTION

This supplement to the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) is submitted in support of the application by SHINE Technologies, LLC (SHINE) to operate a medical isotope production facility.

The information provided in Section 1.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. This supplement describes the phased approach to operation that SHINE is following to facilitate meeting the national need for molybdenum-99 production as soon as possible while also ensuring all requirements related to public health and safety are met.

The phasing has been developed to minimize the complexities of maintaining process isolation and confinement requirements and to limit the number of physical locations where remaining equipment installation is occurring during operation to minimize impacts on the operating portions of the facility.

The phased approach to operation is separated into four phases. The first three phases bring the eight irradiation units (IUs) and molybdenum-99 production capability online, while Phase 4 adds iodine and xenon production capability. The general description of phases is as follows:

Phase 1 consists of the equipment necessary to support operation of IUs 1 and 2. The equipment installed for Phase 1 includes:

  • all auxiliary and support systems, except as noted below for the instances of primary closed loop cooling system (PCLS), light water pool system (LWPS), and radiological ventilation zone 1 (RVZ1) equipment located in the cooling room;
  • all radioisotope production facility (RPF) systems except the capability of iodine and xenon purification and packaging (IXP) and radioactive liquid waste immobilization (RLWI) selective removal;
  • IUs 1 and 2, including the associated instances of the subcritical assembly system (SCAS), neutron flux detection system (NFDS), target solution vessel (TSV) off-gas system (TOGS), PCLS, LWPS, and RVZ1r; and
  • tritium purification system (TPS) train A.

Phase 2 adds the equipment necessary to support operation of IUs 3, 4, and 5. The equipment installed for Phase 2 includes:

  • IUs 3, 4, and 5, including the associated instances of the SCAS, NFDS, TOGS, PCLS, LWPS, and RVZ1 equipment located in the cooling room; and
  • TPS train B.

Phase 3 adds the equipment necessary to support operation of irradiation units 6, 7, and 8.

Phase 3 also adds the capability for selective removal in the RLWI system and waste staging.

The equipment installed for Phase 3 includes:

  • IUs 6, 7, and 8, including the associated instances of the SCAS, NFDS, TOGS, PCLS, LWPS, and RVZ1 equipment located in the cooling room;
  • TPS train C; SHINE Technologies 1-1 Rev. 0

Chapter 1 - The Facility

  • RLWI selective removal components; and
  • the material staging building.

Phase 4 adds the IXP capability. See Figure 1.1-1 for the physical layout where equipment is located for the four phases.

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS OF PRINCIPAL SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS The information provided in Section 1.2 of the FSAR, and associated subsections, is not affected by phased startup operations, with the exception of the listing of locations in which radioactive materials are primarily present provided in Subsection 1.2.1 of the FSAR. The lone exception to the listing is that the material staging building does not contain radioactive materials until it is operational as part of Phase 3.

The SHINE Safety Analysis (SSA) methodology described in Chapter 13 of the FSAR has been used to evaluate whether any new or different hazards are introduced by phased startup operations. The results of this evaluation concluded that there are no new accident categories introduced by phased startup operations, beyond those identified in Subsection 1.2.4 of the FSAR. Additional details on the safety analysis evaluation specific to phased startup operations is provided in Chapter 13a2 and Chapter 13b of this supplement.

1.3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE FACILITY The information provided in Section 1.3 of the FSAR, and associated subsections, is not affected by phased startup operations, with the exception of the specific number of IUs that are operational in each phase, as described in Section 1.1.

The design criteria for each system, both general and system specific, is met during all phases of operation for the systems in operation. This includes Criterion 33 (Piping systems penetrating confinement and) Criterion 34 (Confinement isolation). Discussions of isolation locations specific to phased startup operations are provided in Chapter 4a2, Chapter 4b, Chapter 9a2, and Chapter 9b.

Isolations at interface points with uninstalled systems are described throughout the supplement and generally consist of one or more valves and blind flanges or caps. The blind flanges and caps described are not credited controls and are not necessary to meet design criteria for the systems. As system installation progresses in preparation for the next phase of operation, the blind flanges and caps are removed, and the appropriate process connections are made.

Confinement boundaries for operating systems are not impacted by installation activities.

Each IU has a dedicated IU cell, TOGS cell, and primary cooling room. This provides an installation area that is physically separate from operating units. The IU cells and primary cooling rooms are designed to allow access for maintenance or other operational needs while adjacent units are operating, including irradiation cell biological shield (ICBS) design sufficient to minimize dose rates consistent with as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) principles at the facility.

During the phased approach to initial facility operations, the instrumentation and control (I&C) systems are installed to the extent practicable given the extent of equipment installation.

Instrumentation and controls required for the safe operation of the process equipment in each SHINE Technologies 1-2 Rev. 0

Chapter 1 - The Facility phase are fully tested and operable. Sufficient isolation exists between operable and non-operable portions of the systems to ensure non-operable portions do not impact the safe operation of the active systems during installation or testing activities, for each phase of startup operations.

For systems associated with individual IUs, including the TSV reactivity protection system (TRPS), NFDS, and the radiological ventilation zone 1 exhaust subsystem (RVZ1e) IU cell radiation monitors, the systems are brought online with the associated IU in the applicable phases.

1.4 SHARED FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT The information provided in Section 1.4 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

In reference to the list of structures that make up the SHINE facility, the material staging building is not operational until Phase 3.

1.5 COMPARISON WITH SIMILAR FACILITIES The information provided in Section 1.5 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

DESCRIPTION The summary descriptions provided in Section 6a2.1 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

6a2.2 DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS The irradiation facility (IF) design basis accidents (DBAs), the engineered safety features (ESFs) required to mitigate the DBAs, and the location of the bases for these determinations provided in Table 6a2.1-1 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

6a2.2.1 CONFINEMENT The information provided in Subsection 6a2.2.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. The engineered safety features described in Figure 6a2.1-1 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

6a2.2.1.1 Primary Confinement Boundary The information provided in Subsection 6a2.2.1.1 of the FSAR, including Figure 6a2.2-1 of the FSAR, is described on a per irradiation unit (IU) basis and is not affected by phased startup operations.

During Phase 1, the primary confinement boundaries for IUs 1 and 2 are operable. During Phase 2, the primary confinement boundaries for IUs 1 through 5 are operable. The primary confinement boundaries for all 8 IUs are operable during Phases 3 and 4. For the primary confinement boundaries that are not operable in Phases 1 and 2, system isolations are in place to prevent release of radiological or chemical hazards into the uninstalled IU. Refer to Chapter 4a2 for a discussion of isolation points within the IU and Chapter 4b for isolation points in systems located within the below grade confinement.

6a2.2.1.2 Tritium Confinement Boundary The information provided in Subsection 6a2.2.1.2 of the FSAR is described on a per tritium purification system (TPS) train basis and is not affected by phased startup operations.

For Phase 1 operations, only Train A of the TPS is installed, and supports the operation of IUs 1 and 2. For Phase 2 operations, Trains A and B of the TPS are installed. Train A of the TPS supports the units installed as part of Phase 1 and Train B supports operation of IUs 3 through 5. For Phase 3 and 4 operations, the TPS and IUs are installed in full.

Figure 6a2.2-2 of the FSAR is not impacted by the phased startup operations with the exception of the number of TPS process trains and irradiation units present in each phase. Figure 6a2.2-1 provides an update to Figure 6a2.2-2 of the FSAR to reflect the number of TPS trains and IUs in operation during Phase 1 and Phase 2.

SHINE Technologies 6a2-1 Rev. 0

Chapter 6a2 - Irradiation Facility Engineered Safety Features Because of the independence between TPS trains, as described in Subsection 9a2.7.1, no isolations are needed to prevent radiological material from entering TPS trains installed in later phases, prior to each train being functional and available for operation.

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION The iodine and xenon purification and packaging (IXP) system equipment is not installed as part of Phase 1, 2, or 3 operations. To support installation of this system for Phase 4, the IXP hot cell is not part of the supercell confinement in Phase 1, 2, and 3 operations. Structures, systems, and components (SSCs) are installed to isolate any connections to the IXP from other installed systems. Isolation is maintained between the IXP cell and the other hot cells using the bubble tight dampers shown in Figure 9a2.1-3 of the FSAR. These dampers remain closed until the IXP cell is in operation to maintain the supercell confinement boundary. Figure 6b.2-1 provides a block diagram of the supercell confinement boundary in Phases 1, 2, and 3.

The entirety of the subgrade equipment and confinement, as described in the Chapter 6b FSAR, is installed as part of Phase 1 operations. Isolation capability is provided to segregate the installed subgrade equipment from equipment that is installed as part of subsequent phases.

These isolation SSCs remain operational during and following any design basis accident (DBA),

including seismic events and loss of off-site power. Thus, the unmitigated and mitigated doses to the public and the worker provided in the FSAR remain bounding (Tables 6b.1-2 and 13b.2-2 of the FSAR).

As described in Section 6b.2, the process vessel vent system (PVVS) isolation and combustible gas management engineered safety features are not affected by phased startup operations.

6b.2 DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS The radioisotope production facility (RPF) design basis accidents (DBAs), the engineered safety features (ESFs) required to mitigate the DBAs, and the location of the bases for these determinations provided in Table 6b.1-1 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

6b.2.1 CONFINEMENT The information provided in Subsection 6b.2.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. The engineered safety features described in Figure 6b.1-1 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

6b.2.1.1 Supercell Confinement The iodine and xenon purification and packaging (IXP) equipment is not installed a part of Phase 1, 2, or 3 operations. However, the IXP cell, including the confinement box and bubble tight isolation dampers are installed. To allow for the installation of the IXP equipment within the IXP hot cell during the Phase 1, 2, and 3 operations, the IXP hot cell is isolated from the other nine cells of the supercell and is therefore not considered part of the supercell confinement.

Isolation of interfacing process and supporting systems to IXP equipment during Phase 1, 2, and 3 operations is described in Section 4b.3. Isolation of ventilation to the IXP hot cell during Phase 1, 2, and 3 operations is described in Section 9a2.1.

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION The summary description of instrumentation and control (I&C) systems provide in Section 7.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

During phased startup operations, the I&C systems are installed to the extent practicable given the extent of equipment installation. Instrumentation and controls required for the safe operation of the process equipment in each phase are fully tested and operable. Sufficient isolation exists between operable and non-operable portions of the systems to ensure non-operable portions do not impact the safe operation of the active systems during installation or testing activities, for each phase of startup operations. The manner of isolation is described in Sections 7.3 through 7.8 of this supplement.

For systems associated with individual irradiation units (IUs), including the target solution vessel (TSV) reactivity protection system (TRPS), neutron flux detection system (NFDS), and the radiological ventilation zone 1 exhaust subsystem (RVZ1e) IU cell radiation monitors, the systems will be brought online with the associated IU in the applicable phases. Chapter 1 provides a description of the IU phasing.

Descriptions of how phased startup operations affects each I&C system are provided in Sections 7.3 through 7.8 of this supplement.

Figure 7.1-1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations with the exception of the number of IU instances (i.e., x8) pictured in the blocks labeled Irradiation Unit 1 Div A, Irradiation Unit 1 Div B, and Irradiation Unit 1 Div C. The number of installed instances in each phase will be consistent with the IU phasing described in Chapter 1.

Figures 7.1-2 and 7.1-3 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

The design criteria and design bases are applied to operable portions of systems as described in Subsections 7.2.2 and 7.2.3 of the FSAR, respectively. Non-operable portions are isolated such that the design criteria of the operable portions remain satisfied. The manner of isolation is described in Sections 7.3 through 7.8 of this supplement.

7.3 PROCESS INTEGRATED CONTROL SYSTEM 7.3.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Process integrated control system (PICS) hardware (i.e., cabinets, power supplies, controllers, programmable logic controllers [PLCs]) is installed prior to Phase 1 operations, with the exception of hardware associated with tritium purification system (TPS) trains B and C. PICS monitoring and controls associated with equipment that is not yet installed or not yet operable to support Phase 1 operations are tested and placed in operation as required for a given phase.

3.5 CONCLUSION

The conclusions provided in Subsection 7.3.5 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

7.4 TARGET SOLUTION VESSEL REACTIVITY PROTECTION SYSTEM 7.4.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The TRPS description provided in Section 7.4.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. Each IU is supported by a unit specific instance of the TRPS. The TRPS logic diagrams provided in Figure 7.4-1 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

The nine TRPS cabinets are installed in the facility control room (FCR) prior to Phase 1 operations but are brought into operation with the corresponding IU phasing as described in Chapter 1. The first three cabinets, which correspond to Divisions A, B, and C for TRPS instances associated with IUs 1 and 2, are made operational prior to Phase 1. The second three cabinets, corresponding to Divisions A, B, and C for TRPS instances associated with IUs 3, 4, and 5, are made operational prior to Phase 2. The third three cabinets, corresponding to Divisions A, B, and C for TRPS instances corresponding to IUs 6, 7, and 8, are made operational prior to Phase 3.

7.4.2 DESIGN CRITERIA The description of the SHINE facility design criteria and TRPS system design criteria provided in Subsection 7.4.2 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. As described in Section 7.4.1, TRPS cabinets associated with each different phase of operation operate according to their appropriate phase. SHINE facility design criteria and TRPS system design criteria are satisfied for TRPS cabinets that are in operation for a particular phase. Section 7.4.5 describes an application-specific modification to the generic highly integrated protection SHINE Technologies 7-4 Rev. 0

Chapter 7 - Instrumentation and Control Systems system (HIPS) platform described in Subsection 7.4.5.1 of the FSAR. This modification, which provides for the disabling of inputs, will not be used during the phased implementation of the TRPS. Hence, the description of the SHINE facility design criteria and TRPS system design criteria provided in Subsection 7.4.2 of the FSAR is not affected.

7.4.3 DESIGN BASIS The description of the safety functions provided in Subsection 7.4.3.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. The safety functions operate as described for each individual instance of TRPS as it is brought online.

The descriptions of mode transition, completion of protective actions, single failure, operating conditions, and seismic, tornado, flood provided in Subsections 7.4.3.2 through 7.4.3.6 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations. The descriptions are accurate for each individual instance of TRPS as it is brought online.

The description of human factors provided in Subsection 7.4.3.7 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations, with the exception of the implementation of the manual TPS Isolation push button. Manual TPS Isolation from both the facility master operating permissive and the manual push button are only tied to instances of TRPS for the installed TPS trains during each phase of operation. Phased installation of TPS trains is described in Section 9a2.7. In this way, the same actuation push button is provided to the operator to initiate the manual TPS isolation, and only equipment applicable to the particular phase is actuated when the button is depressed.

Section 7.5 provides additional information on disabled outputs from the ESFAS to instances of TRPS that are not yet operable.

The descriptions of loss of external power, fire protection, classification and identification, setpoints, prioritization of functions, and design codes and standards provided in Subsections 7.4.3.8 through 7.4.3.13 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

7.4.4 OPERATION AND PERFORMANCE The description of operation and performance provided in Subsection 7.4.4 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. The information provided in Table 7.4-1 of the FSAR on monitored variables in TRPS is not affected by phased startup operations.

7.4.5 HIGHLY INTEGRATED PROTECTION SYSTEM DESIGN To accommodate phased startup operations, SHINE has performed an application-specific modification to the generic HIPS platform described in Subsection 7.4.5.1 of the FSAR. This modification provides the ability to disable an individual input that is not required for a given phase of facility operation. The disabling of individual inputs is necessary in Phases 1, 2, and 3 because ESFAS equipment that is not yet operable will not send signals to the system and thus would prevent facility operation. The disabled inputs are restored to an operable status prior to entering the technical specification mode of applicability for the given input. The ability to disable inputs is only used in conjunction with the ESFAS during phased startup operations. Although the capability to disable inputs exists for the TRPS in the same manner as the ESFAS, it is not used. Each instance of the TRPS is operable, to include all individual inputs, prior to commencing operation in a given phase.

SHINE Technologies 7-5 Rev. 0

Chapter 7 - Instrumentation and Control Systems Individual inputs to the ESFAS are disabled using the maintenance workstation (MWS).

Physically, this process occurs in a similar manner to modifying a setpoint with the MWS. The technician performing the modification accesses the MWS with a password, selects the ESFAS, the division, the specific safety function module (SFM), and the individual input to be disabled.

The technician then activates a hardwired switch near the MWS to allow for physical connection of the MWS to the calibration and test bus (CTB). The technician then toggles the input disable switch on the MWS that indicates the individual input is disabled. The technician asserts the disable function to complete disabling of the individual input. The disable status associated with the disabled input is stored in a location on the SFMs non-volatile memory (NVM). The NVM location is loaded to the triplicated logic designs on the field programmable gate array (FPGA) during startup or a manual NVM data load command from the modules front panel switch. The SFMs safety function logic is independent (i.e., different logic resources on the FPGA) from both the logic used to store information to the NVM and the logic used to load information from the NVM to the safety function logic.

Individual inputs for each safety actuation not required to be operable in a given phase are disabled across all divisions. The disabling of these inputs causes the ESFAS to not process them as an actuation request, and hence, does not initiate unnecessary protection actions based upon them. The MWS continues to function as described in Subsection 7.4.5.3.3 of the FSAR. Information for inputs that are disabled will be transmitted to the PICS and displayed to the operator as described in Section 7.6.3.

The modification to the generic HIPS platform to disable individual inputs does not impact how the TRPS and ESFAS satisfy application specific action items (ASAIs) 24 and 54 described in the HIPS topical report Safety Evaluation Report (SER) (USNRC, 2017) or how the TRPS and ESFAS comply with IEEE Standard 7-4.3.2-2003 (IEEE, 2003), as described in Subsection 7.4.5.1 of the FSAR.

The HIPS design attributes provided in Subsection 7.4.5.2 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations. Since the TRPS is being implemented in instances associated with individual IUs, the HIPS design is being implemented in full for each instance. The disabling of individual inputs to the ESFAS do not impact the independence, redundancy, and diversity of the ESFAS in a given phase. No new failure modes are introduced by disabling individual inputs, so the failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), diversity and defense-in-depth assessment, and single failure analysis are not affected. The descriptions of independence, redundancy, predictability and repeatability, diversity, and simplicity provided in Subsection 7.4.5.2 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations. The HIPS platform timing shown in Figure 7.4-2 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

The access control and cyber security considerations provided in Subsection 7.4.5.3 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations.

The software requirements development considerations provided in Subsection 7.4.5.4 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations. For cabinets not in operation, implementation and verification of the appropriate software version occurs during the testing activities prior to operation. The same development scheme, development oversight, testing, planning, review, and approval occurs for each cabinet as described in Subsection 7.4.5.4 of the FSAR. The TRPS and ESFAS programmable logic lifecycle process shown in Figure 7.4-3 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

SHINE Technologies 7-6 Rev. 0

Chapter 7 - Instrumentation and Control Systems Configuration management, as described in Subsection 7.4.5.4.6 of the FSAR, is implemented on a per-cabinet basis. This is to ensure that proper version control is adequately implemented across the cabinets in each phase of operation. During startup testing for each phase, configuration management is conducted for each individual cabinet tied to the phase of operation.

Independent testing, as described in Subsection 7.4.5.4.7 of the FSAR, is not affected by phased startup operations. The functionality of disabling inputs is tested as part of the Pre-Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and FAT as described in this subsection of the FSAR.

Inputs for ESFAS and TRPS are tested as a part of the Site Acceptance Test (SAT) prior to Phase 1 of operations. Inputs for Phases 2, 3, and 4 are energized in order to simulate each SFMs ability to trigger on pre-determined setpoints and send the appropriate output signals for voting. This will be used to test the ability of each ESFAS/TRPS cabinet to send the appropriate output signals needed for actuations. Upon successful completion of the SAT, TRPS cabinets associated with Phases 2, 3, and 4 are removed from operation, and the ESFAS inputs associated with Phases 2, 3, and 4 are disabled.

Prior to testing newly installed inputs to ESFAS, the MWS is used to configure the newly installed inputs such that it does not affect equipment in operation. The input is then enabled, verified, and the setpoint is adjusted to the design value prior to process equipment operation.

The HIPS performance analysis provided in Subsection 7.4.5.5 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. The disabling of individual inputs in the ESFAS does not affect the self-testing features of the HIPS platform.

4.6 CONCLUSION

The conclusions provided in Subsection 7.4.6 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

7.5 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES ACTUATION SYSTEM 7.5.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The ESFAS description provided in Subsection 7.5.1 of the FSAR remains accurate during phased startup operations relative to the capabilities of the ESFAS. The ESFAS logic diagrams provided in Figure 7.5-1 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations. During phased startup operations, inputs to the ESFAS for equipment that is not required to be operable are disabled using the MWS as described in Subsection 7.4.5. These inputs are restored and verified to be operable prior to entering the technical specification mode of applicability associated with the given input.

ESFAS cabinets are installed prior to Phase 1 operation. Table 7.5-1 provides a list of monitored variable inputs that are disabled during specific phases of the phased startup operations. Table 7.5-2 provides a list of safety functions that are not utilized during specific phases of the phased startup operations. These inputs and functions do not affect the safety or operability of the systems during the phases they are disabled or not utilized, because the associated equipment is not operable and does not contain hazardous material.

Chapter 7 - Instrumentation and Control Systems 7.5.2 DESIGN CRITERIA The description of the SHINE facility design criteria and ESFAS system design criteria provided in Subsection 7.5.2 of the FSAR are not affected by phased startup operations. ESFAS functions are operable as required for equipment that is in operation for a given phase and meet the design criteria. ESFAS inputs that are disabled as described in Section 7.5.1 do not impact the ability of the system to meet the design criteria.

Since disabled inputs are not processed as an actuation request as described in Section 7.4.5, they do not function in a manner analogous to the maintenance bypass feature described in Section 7.5 of the FSAR. The maintenance bypass feature is utilized in conjunction with taking an SFM out of service, where the feature to disable inputs will be part of the normal operation of the ESFAS during the phased approach. The ESFAS will continue to satisfy SHINE facility design criteria and ESFAS system design criteria as provided in Subsection 7.5.2 of the FSAR, since the disabled inputs do not impact the trip determination logic or the ability to perform maintenance on the system. Disabled inputs will be restored and verified to be operable prior to entering the specified conditions in the applicability of the technical specifications.

Chapter 8a2 - Irradiation Facility Electrical Power Systems CHAPTER 8a2 - IRRADIATION FACILITY ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS 8a2.1 NORMAL ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM The description of the normal electrical power supply system (NPSS) provided in Section 8a2.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. The NPSS is installed in full to support Phase 1 operations. Sufficient isolation exists between operable and not yet installed or not yet operable equipment to ensure that not yet installed or not yet operable equipment loads do not impact the NPSS. Loads on the NPSS that are not yet installed or not yet operable in Phases 1, 2, or 3 have the associated isolation device removed or placed in an out-of-service condition.

The NPSS continues to satisfy codes and standards as described in Subsections 8a2.1.1, 8a2.1.3, 8a2.1.4, and 8a2.1.5 of the FSAR. The raceway and cable routing described in Subsection 8a2.1.5 of the FSAR is installed in full to support Phase 1 operations. Cabling associated with equipment that is not yet installed or not yet operable for a given phase is routed with the power removed at the associated panel or load.

The simplified electrical distribution system diagram provided in Figure 8a2.1-1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

8a2.2 EMERGENCY ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS The description of the emergency electrical power systems provided in Section 8a2.2 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. During the phased startup operations, the uninterruptible electrical power supply system (UPSS), the nonsafety-related standby generator system (SGS), and nonsafety-related local power supplies and unit batteries are installed in full to support Phase 1 operations. Sufficient isolation exists between operable and not yet installed or not yet operable equipment to ensure that not yet installed or not yet operable equipment loads do not impact the UPSS. Loads on the UPSS that are not yet installed or not yet operable in Phases 1, 2, or 3 have the associated isolation device removed or placed in an out-of-service condition.

Since the UPSS is fully installed prior to Phase 1 operations, the system and operational description provided in Subsections 8a2.2.1, 8a2.2.2, 8a2.2.3, 8a2.2.7, and 8a2.2.8 of the FSAR is not impacted by isolating loads that are not yet installed or not yet operable. The UPSS continues to satisfy codes and standards as described in Subsections 8a2.2.2 and 8a2.2.3 of the FSAR. The loads listed in Table 8a2.2-1 and 8a2.2-2 of the FSAR reflect full system loading and bound the loading during Phases 1, 2, and 3.

The SGS is installed in full as described in Subsections 8a2.2.4, 8a2.2.5, and 8a2.2.6 of the FSAR prior to Phase 1 operations.

The simplified UPSS diagram provided in Figure 8a2.2-1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

Figure 11.1-1 of the FSAR provides probable radiation area designations within the irradiation unit (IU) cells, target solution vessel (TSV) off-gas system (TOGS) cells, and primary cooling rooms, assuming IUs 1 through 8 are operating simultaneously. During Phase 1, IUs 1 and 2 may be operating while installation activities continue within the IU cells 3 through 8, TOGS cells 3 through 8, and primary cooling rooms 3 through 8. During Phase 2, IUs 1 through 5 may be operating while installation activities continue within the IU cells 6 through 8, TOGS cells 6 through 8, and primary cooling rooms 6 through 8.

During Phase 1, with IUs 1 and 2 operating, the dose rate in IU cell 3 and primary cooling room 3 is expected to be between 5 and 100 millirem per hour (mrem/hr), while the dose rate in the remaining cells (i.e., IU cells 4 through 8, TOGS cells 3 through 8, and primary cooling rooms 4 through 8) is expected to be less than 5 mrem/hr. During Phase 2, with IUs 1 through 5 operating, the dose rate in IU cell 6 and TOGS cell 6 is expected to be between 5 and 100 mrem/hr, while the dose rate in the remaining cells (i.e., IU cells 7 and 8, TOGS cells 7 and 8, and primary cooling rooms 6 through 8) is expected to be less than 5 mrem/hr. The probable dose rates within operating IU cells, TOGS cells, and cooling rooms during Phase 1 and Phase 2 are as provided in Figure 11.1-1 of the FSAR. The probable dose rates within the irradiation facility (IF) during Phase 3 and Phase 4 are as provided in Figure 11.1-1 of the FSAR.

Figure 11.1-1 of the FSAR provides probable radiation area designations within the supercell assuming each hot cell is operational. During Phase 1 through Phase 3, the iodine and xenon purification and packaging (IXP) hot cell is not operational. The dose rate in the IXP hot cell is expected to be between 5 and 100 mrem/hr during Phase 1 through Phase 3. The probable dose rates during Phase 4 are as provided in Figure 11.1-1 of the FSAR.

Figure 11.1-2 of the FSAR provides estimated derived air concentrations (DACs) within the IU cells and TOGS cells assuming all IUs (i.e., IUs 1 through 8) are operational. During Phase 1, the estimated DAC in IU cells 3 through 8 and TOGS cells 3 through 8 are less than 1. During Phase 2, the estimated DAC in IU cells 6 through 8 and TOGS cells 6 through 8 are less than 1.

The estimated DAC within operational IU cells and TOGS cells during Phase 1 and Phase 2 are as provided in Figure 11.1-2 of the FSAR. The estimated DAC within the IF during Phase 3 and Phase 4 are as provided in Figure 11.1-1 of the FSAR.

Waste solidified during Phase 1 and Phase 2 may have higher dose rates and higher waste classifications than wastes solidified during Phase 3 and Phase 4. During Phase 1 and Phase 2, liquid waste is stored in the subgrade radioactive liquid waste storage (RLWS) tanks prior to transfer to RLWI in order to maximize the decay time and limit the volume of solidified waste requiring disposal.

Waste from the IXP system will not be generated in Phases 1 through 3.

Chapter 13a2 - Irradiation Facility Accident Analysis CHAPTER 13a2 - IRRADIATION FACILITY ACCIDENT ANALYSIS The SHINE Safety Analysis (SSA) methodology, as described in Chapter 13a2 of the FSAR, was used to evaluate the impacts of phased startup operations on the SSA and the accident analysis provided as Chapter 13 of the FSAR. A hazard evaluation was performed along with a review of the current process hazard analysis for the facility to identify new or different accident scenarios, including changes to likelihood or consequences of existing accident scenarios.

The likelihood and consequences for these new or different accident scenarios were then evaluated and compared to the risk matrix, as described in Chapter 13a2 of the FSAR. Where the uncontrolled scenario resulted in unacceptable risk, safety-related controls were applied to prevent or mitigate the accident scenario. These controls were applied in a method consistent with that described in Chapter 13a2 of the FSAR.

The results of accident analysis specific to phased startup operations is summarized in the remainder of this chapter. Phased startup operations do not result in new accident categories, but the following new accident sequences within the irradiation facility (IF) were identified:

  • Improper target solution routing to an uninstalled irradiation unit (IU) cell
  • Damage to an installed tritium purification system (TPS) train during the installation of another TPS train
  • Damage to a process vessel vent system (PVVS) to target solution vessel (TSV) off-gas system (TOGS) interface line during installation of the subcritical assembly system (SCAS)

Accident sequences within the IF modified based on increased likelihood include:

  • Heavy load drop on the TPS
  • Heavy load drop on an open IU cell
  • Fire in the IF general area Additionally, several accident sequences have reduced likelihoods or consequences during phased startup operations due to reduced frequency of operations and a reduced material at risk. These accident sequences were not reevaluated because they are bounded by the accident analysis as currently documented in Chapter 13 of the FSAR.

Two new credited engineered controls are required to prevent phased startup operation accident sequences in the IF. Three new credited specific administrative controls are required to prevent phased startup operation accident sequences in the IF.

The following subsections provide additional detail on the scenarios listed above and the credited controls used for prevention.

13a2.1 ACCIDENT-INITIATING EVENTS AND SCENARIOS The information provided in Section 13a2.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

13a2.1.4 MISHANDLING OR MALFUNCTION OF TARGET SOLUTION The information provided in Subsection 13a2.1.4 of the FSAR remains valid for phased startup operations. Additionally, a mishandling and malfunction of target solution scenario of improper target solution routing to an uninstalled IU cell was identified and evaluated.

The initiating event in this scenario is a failure of the vacuum transfer system (VTS) lower lift tank target solution valve. In the uncontrolled sequence, failure of the valve would cause leakage of target solution into an uninstalled IU cell. This scenario is prevented by the dump tank drain isolation valve, which is installed as part of Phase 1 operation and maintained disconnected from power until the remaining IU equipment is installed and ready for hot commissioning.

Because this scenario has preventative measures in place, there are no radiological consequences.

13a2.1.10 UNINTENDED EXOTHERMIC CHEMICAL REACTIONS OTHER THAN DETONATION The information provided in Subsection 13a2.1.10 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

13a2.1.11 SYSTEM INTERACTION EVENTS The information provided in Subsection 13a2.1.11 of the FSAR remains valid for phased startup operations. Additionally, a system interaction event of damage to a PVVS to TOGS interface line during installation of the SCAS was identified and evaluated. The accident scenario of fire in the IF general area leading to damage of cooling room equipment was also modified and evaluated for increased initiating event likelihood during phased startup operations.

Errors during installation of SCAS equipment in an IU cell during Phase 1 or Phase 2 operations may result in damage to the PVVS to TOGS interface line that extends into the IU cell. Damage to this line could create a preferred flow path for PVVS gas to bypass process tanks, leading to deflagration and radiological dose. This scenario is prevented through the application of a new passive engineered control of a physical barrier installed over vulnerable portions of the PVVS to TOGS interface line and a specific administrative control to limit crane hoist speed during SCAS installation.

The accident sequence of a fire in the IF general area leading to damage of cooling room equipment resulting in a complete loss of primary closed loop cooling system (PCLS) cooling in one or more IU cells or TOGS cells is modified during phased startup operations to account for an increased likelihood of the initiating event as a result of on-going installation activities.

Radiological release due to this scenario is prevented by the credited controls currently in place, as described in Subsection 13a2.2.3 of the FSAR.

Because these events have preventative measures in place, there are no radiological consequences.

13a2.1.12 FACILITY-SPECIFIC EVENTS The information provided in Subsection 13a2.1.12 of the FSAR remains valid for phased startup operations. Additionally, a facility-specific event of damage to an operating TPS train during the installation of another TPS train was identified and evaluated. The accident scenarios of a heavy load drop into an open IU cell and a heavy load drop onto TPS equipment were also modified and evaluated for increased initiating event likelihood during phased startup operations.

Errors during installation of TPS trains B or C during Phase 1 or Phase 2 operations, respectively, may result in damage to an operating TPS train. In the uncontrolled scenario, mechanical damage to an installed TPS train leads to release of tritium and radiological dose to workers and the public. The physical distance separating the TPS train installation locations reduces the likelihood of the initiating event. The scenario is prevented through the application SHINE Technologies 13a2-3 Rev. 0

Chapter 13a2 - Irradiation Facility Accident Analysis of a new specific administrative control for operators to install physical barriers (e.g., roping or stanchions) around installed TPS trains to limit access to areas where mechanical damage to an installed TPS train is possible.

The accident sequences of a heavy load drop onto TPS equipment is modified during phased startup operations for increased likelihood of the initiating event as a result of on-going installation activities. This scenario is prevented by a credited control currently in place (i.e.,

single failure proof crane in the IF) and through the application of a new specific administrative control which requires that operators use safe load paths that avoid lifting over the TPS room.

Because these events have preventative measures in place, there are no radiological consequences.

13a2.2 ACCIDENT ANALYSIS AND DETERMINATION OF CONSEQUENCES The information provided in Section 13a2.2 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations. No new accident scenarios resulting in radiological or chemical release were identified as a result of phased startup operations. The material at risk for certain existing scenarios may be reduced by phased startup operations due to fewer units being in operation; however, the scenarios as described in Section 13a2.2 of the FSAR remain bounding and no credit is taken for the reduction in consequence that would result.

Chapter 13b - Radioisotope Production Facility Accident Analysis CHAPTER 13b - RADIOISOTOPE PRODUCTION FACILITY ACCIDENT ANALYSIS 13b.1 RADIOISOTOPE PRODUCTION FACILITY ACCIDENT ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY The information provided in Section 13b.1 of the FSAR remains valid for phased startup operations. The methodology used to evaluate the impacts of phased startup operations is described in Chapter 13a2 of this supplement.

13b.1.1 PROCESSES CONDUCTED OUTSIDE THE IRRADIATION FACILITY The process descriptions provided in Subsection 13b.1.1 of the FSAR remain valid for phased startup operations with the exception that the iodine and xenon purification and packaging (IXP) system is not installed as part of Phase 1, 2, or 3 operations.

13b.1.2 ACCIDENT INITIATING EVENTS The information provided in Subsection 13b.1.2 of the FSAR remains valid for phased startup operations.

Phased startup operations do not result in new accident categories, but the following new accident sequence within the radioisotope production facility (RPF) was identified:

  • Improper target solution routing to the IXP cell, prior to Phase 4 operations Accident sequences within the RPF modified based on increased likelihood include:
  • Heavy load drop onto the radioactive liquid waste immobilization (RLWI) shielded enclosure or supercell
  • Fire in the RPF general area Accident sequences that may have reduced likelihood or consequences due to the phased startup operations were not reevaluated because they are bounded by the accident analysis as currently documented in Chapter 13 of the FSAR.

One new credited engineered control is required to prevent phased startup operation accident sequences in the RPF. One new credited specific administrative control is required to prevent phased startup operation accident sequences in the RPF.

The following subsections provide additional detail on the scenarios listed above and the credited controls used for prevention.

13b.1.2.1 Maximum Hypothetical Accident The information provided in Subsection 13b.1.2.1 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

SHINE Technologies 13b-1 Rev. 0

Chapter 13b - Radioisotope Production Facility Accident Analysis 13b.1.2.2 External Events The information provided in Subsection 13b.1.2.2 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

13b.1.2.3 RPF Critical Equipment Malfunction The information provided in Subsection 13b.1.2.3 of the FSAR remains valid for phased startup operations with the exception that the IXP system is not installed as part of Phase 1, 2, or 3 operations. The accident sequences that result from process upsets in the IXP are, therefore, not applicable during Phases 1, 2, or 3.

An additional RPF critical equipment malfunction scenario of a target solution leak into the IXP cell was identified and evaluated. The initiating event in this scenario is the failure of a locked closed valve between the molybdenum extraction and purification system (MEPS) and IXP, located in the MEPS cell. In the uncontrolled sequence, failure of the valve causes leakage of target solution into the IXP cell, resulting in dose consequences to the worker and the public.

This scenario is prevented by a second locked closed manual valve between MEPS and IXP, located in the IXP cell.

The accident sequence of a heavy load drop onto the RLWI shielded enclosure or supercell is modified during phased startup operations to account for an increased likelihood of the initiating event as a result of on-going installation activities. This increase was small in comparison to the total planned lifts during normal operations and did not result in an increase in the likelihood index for the initiating event. This scenario is prevented by the credited controls currently in place, including the application of applicable guidance from NUREG-0612, Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants (USNRC, 1980), for control of heavy loads in the SHINE facility.

Because these scenarios have preventative measures in place, there are no radiological consequences.

13b.1.2.4 RPF Inadvertent Nuclear Criticality The information provided in Subsection 13b.1.2.4 of the FSAR is not affected by phased startup operations.

13b.1.2.5 RPF Fire The information provided in Subsection 13b.1.2.5 of the FSAR remains valid for phased startup operations. An increase in the initiating event likelihood for a fire in the RPF general area was reevaluated for phased startup operations, resulting in an increase in the likelihood index for the initiating event. A new specific administrative control of suspension of radiological material processing in the adjacent cell during hot work is applied in addition to the existing RPF fire controls.

Because this scenario has preventative measures in place, there are no radiological consequences.

Chapter 14 - Technical Specifications CHAPTER 14 - TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS 14.1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The approach to the development of the SHINE technical specifications described in Chapter 14 of the FSAR is not affected by the phased startup operations. Normal operation of the SHINE facility within the limits of the technical specifications during phased startup operations will not result in off-site radiation exposure in excess of 10 CFR Part 20 guidelines. Observance of these technical specifications limits the likelihood and consequences of malfunctions.
