BASES Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation 16.11-2 The Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during actual or potential releases of liquid effluents. The Alarm/Trip Setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated and adjusted in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM to ensure that the Alarm/Trip will occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20. The FUNCTIONALITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60, 63, and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

Regarding Note 1 of Table 16.11-2-1, isolation of the effluent pathway is to be by mechanical means (e.g., valve closure). Electrical or pneumatic isolation is not required, unless the isolation is designed to receive an automatic signal to open.

BASES Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation 16.11-7 The Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents during actual or potential releases of gaseous effluents. The Alarmff rip Setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM to ensure that the Alarmffrip will occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20. Conservative Alarmffrip Setpoints may be used during a release provided they are less than or equal to the setpoints determined by the methodology and parameters of the ODCM. The FUNCTIONALITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60, 63, and 64 of Appendix A to 1 0 CFR Part 50. The sensitivity of any noble gas activity monitor used to show compliance with the gaseous effluent release requirements of SLC 16.11-8 shall be such that concentrations as low as 1 x 1 o-s µCi/cc are measurable.

Regarding Notes 2 and 3 of Table 16.11-7-1, isolation of the effluent pathway is to be by mechanical means (e.g., valve closure). Electrical or pneumatic isolation is not required, unless the isolation is designed to receive an automatic signal to open. For EMF-50 Low Range only, isolation of the effluent pathway is only considered complete if isolated by a locked closed valve.

In MODES 5 and 6, initiation of the Containment Purge Exhaust System (CPES) with EMF-39 non-functional is not permissible. The basis for Required Action F.1 is to allow the continued operation of the CPES with EMF-39 initially FUNCTIONAL. Continued operation of the CPES is contingent upon the ability of the affected unit to meet the requirements as noted in Required Action F.1.

TR 16.11-7-7 requires the performance of a COT on the applicable Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Radiation Monitors. The test ensures that a signal from the control room module can generate the appropriate alarm and actuations. The required actuations/isolations for a High Radiation condition (i.e., radiation level above its Trip 2 setpoint) are listed below for each monitor.

0EMF Waste Gas Discharge Monitor 1WG160 closes when EMF-50 detects radiation level above its setpoint.

1/2EMF Unit Vent Noble Gas Monitor The following actuations occur when EMF-36 detects radiation level above its setpoint:

1.

Containment Air Release and Addition System fans discharge to unit vent valve VQ 10 closes.

2.

Auxiliary Building unfiltered ventilation exhaust fans A and B stop.

3.

Fuel Handling Ventilation Exhaust System (FHVES) exhaust trains align to the filter units.

4.

(For 1EMF-36 only) 1WG160 closes.

1/2EMF Unit Vent Particulate Monitor (Sampler)

The following actuations occur when EMF-35 detects radiation level above its setpoint:

1.

Containment Air Release and Addition System fans discharge to unit vent valve VQ 1 0 closes.

2.

Auxiliary Building unfiltered ventilation exhaust fans A and B stop.

3.

Fuel Handling Ventilation Exhaust System (FHVES) exhaust trains align to the filter units.

4.

((For 1 EMF-35 only) 1WG160 closes.

1/2EMF Containment Noble Gas Monitor The following actuations occur when EMF-39 detects radiation level above its setpoint:

1.

Signals are provided to both trains of the Solid State Protection System (SSPS) to initiate a CPES isolation. This is verified by observing that Relays K615 in the SSPS A output cabinet and the SSPS B output cabinet are latched.

2.

EMF-39 isolates the CPES without going through the SSPS by stopping CPES supply fans A and B, CPES exhaust fans A and B, and by closing the appropriate valves and dampers.

3.

Containment Evacuation Alarm, unless the source range trip is blocked.

0EMF-58 This monitor provides no control function.

TR 16.11-7-8 requires the performance of a COT on the Condensate Steam Air Ejector Exhaust Monitor, 1/2EMF-33 and Containment Noble Gas Monitor, 1/2EMF-39. The test ensures that a signal from the control room module can generate the appropriate alarm and actuations. The required actuations/isolations for a High Radiation condition (i.e., radiation level above its Trip 2 setpoint) are listed below.

1/2EMF Condensate Steam Air Ejector Exhaust Monitor The following actuations occur when EMF-33 detects radiation level above its setpoint:

1. Closure of 8827 is required in order to isolate the Slowdown Tank from the environment. Because of plant limitations/restrictions:

a. Opening the valve (in order to verify it goes closed on a High Radiation signal) is only possible during outages due to the negative effects on the Slowdown System with the unit at power.

b. Testing during innages will be by verification of relay contacts opening in the valve circuit.

2. Closure of B824, 8865, 8B69, and 8873 is required to minimize the amount of potentially contaminated material being delivered to the Slowdown Tank.

3. Closure of NM269, NM270, NM271, and NM272 is required to minimize the amount of potentially contaminated material being delivered to the Conventional Sampling System.

4. Closure of NM267 is required to minimize the amount of potentially contaminated material being delivered to the Condensate Storage Tank by isolating flow through EMF-34.

5. Closure of 8848 is required to minimize the amount of potentially contaminated material being delivered from the Slowdown System discharge to the Turbine Building sump.
