1 Ensuring that Occupational Radiation Exposures Are as Low as Reasonably Achievable Plant design features, administrative programs, and procedures assist in maintaining occupational radiation exposure as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) in accordance with 10 CFR 20.1101. The purpose of this chapter is to describe the policies, programs, and features for radiation protection.

1.1 Policy Considerations 1.1.1 Design and Construction Policies The design incorporates ALARA principles and policies. Design reviews integrate facility layout, radiation shielding, building ventilation, material selection, and instrumentation design with layout requirements, flow of personnel, plant security, access control, and health physics considerations.

1.1.2 Operational Policies Section 12.1.3 addresses implementation of the operational ALARA policy.

1.1.3 Compliance with 10 CFR 20 and Regulatory Guides 8.8, 8.10, and 1.8 The design complies with 10 CFR 20, and Regulatory Guides (RG) 8.8, Revision 3 and 8.10, Revision 1-R. Section 12.1.3 and Section 12.5 discuss plant operation policy considerations described in RG 8.8, RG 8.10, and RG 1.8, Revision 3 and demonstrated by an application that references the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design. The design meets the guidance of RG 8.8, Sections C.2 and C.4 that address facility, equipment, and instrumentation design features. Section 12.3 addresses plant features that are examples of compliance with RG 8.8.

1.2 Design Considerations This section describes the methods and features that allow the policy considerations of Section 12.1.1 to be implemented. Section 12.3 presents design features and attributes for maintaining ALARA personnel exposures.

1.2.1 General Design Considerations for Maintaining Exposures as Low as Reasonably Achievable Experienced engineers use an inter-disciplinary ALARA design review process to ensure the design conforms to 10 CFR 20.1101(b) and RG 8.8. The design engineers receive training in radiation science and in ALARA design concepts that are incorporated into the facility design. During the design work, calculations are developed for the radiation source terms, radiation shielding, radiation zone cale US460 SDAA 12.1-1 Revision 0

engineers during multi-discipline design phase reviews, which are used to develop additional ALARA features, as necessary.

The ALARA philosophy guiding the design ensures exposures are minimized by designing structures, systems, and components to achieve the following objectives:

  • attain optimal reliability and maintainability, thereby reducing maintenance requirements for radioactive components.
  • reduce radiation fields, thereby allowing operations, maintenance, and inspection activities to be performed in reduced radiation fields.
  • reduce access, repair, and equipment removal times, thereby reducing the time spent in radiation fields.
  • accommodate remote and semi-remote operation, maintenance, and inspection, thereby reducing the time spent in radiation fields.

To minimize production, distribution, and retention of activated corrosion products, the design considerations include appropriate material selection and proper water chemistry. Section 12.1.2.2 describes the design considerations in more detail.

Section 12.3 describes design considerations and features addressing 10 CFR 20.1406 to minimize contamination of the facility, environment, waste generation, and decommissioning.

1.2.2 Equipment Design Considerations for Maintaining Exposures as Low as Reasonably Achievable 1.2.2.1 General Design Criteria The engineering design process requires consideration of the applicable RGs, including RG 8.8, as part of the ALARA design criteria. The following paragraphs describe examples of using ALARA principles in design.

1.2.2.2 Equipment Design Considerations to Limit Time Spent in Radiation Areas Equipment instrumentation and controls are located in accessible areas.

Equipment is selected to minimize potential dose to personnel during maintenance. The selected equipment provides drainage capabilities to facilitate maintenance activities and smooth surfaces to reduce potential for contamination and facilitate decontamination efforts. Selection of components includes consideration for high reliability, ease of decontamination, maintenance and replacement, and accessibility. When possible, components cale US460 SDAA 12.1-2 Revision 0

  • radiation-damage-resistant materials in high-radiation areas to reduce the need for frequent replacement and to reduce the probability of contamination from leakage.
  • stainless steel for constructing or lining components, where it is compatible with the process, to reduce corrosion and provide options for decontamination methods.
  • adequate working space for easy accessibility.
  • locating valves in areas separated from potentially radioactive components.
  • straight-through valve configurations to facilitate maintenance and avoid the buildup of accumulations in internal crevices.

Section 12.1.3 provides site-specific information describing how the plant implements the design consideration guidance in RG 8.8.

1.2.2.3 Equipment Design Considerations to Limit Component Radiation Levels Equipment design considerations directed toward minimizing radiation levels near equipment or components requiring personnel attention include the following:

  • The materials selected for components are chosen to meet service requirements and minimize cobalt-containing materials (e.g., Stellite) coming in contact with the primary coolant system.
  • The design minimizes, to the extent possible, cobalt or nickel-containing alloys for the material to reduce the production of cobalt-60 and cobalt-58.
  • Equipment is designed with provisions to limit leaks, and the plant is designed to collect and control leaked fluid by using sumps and drip pans piped to floor drains that are routed to the liquid radioactive waste system.
  • Components requiring periodic servicing or maintenance are separated, when possible, from highly radioactive sources.
  • Piping design avoids the creation of stagnant legs, uses sloping pipe runs, and locates connections above the pipe centerline.
  • Crud deposition within the primary coolant system is reduced by smooth surfaces that minimize crud traps.
  • The liquid radioactive waste system is provided with a clean-in-place skid that allows flushing system components with demineralized water, as needed.

1.2.2.4 Water Chemistry Reactor coolant water chemistry is controlled during operation to minimize corrosion of surfaces in contact with the coolant and minimize the production cale US460 SDAA 12.1-3 Revision 0

1.2.3 Facility Layout General Design Considerations for Maintaining Radiation Exposures as Low as Reasonably Achievable The design utilizes operating experience and lessons learned from past plant designs to provide an efficient layout that provides reduced personnel exposures.

The radiation protection support facilities are located in the Radioactive Waste Building and include change rooms, offices, calibration facilities, counting room, hot machine shop, and equipment and personnel decontamination facilities. The Radioactive Waste Building also serves as the access portal to the radiologically controlled area, and includes dosimetry issue and personnel contamination monitors.

1.2.3.1 Minimizing Personnel Time Spent in Radiation Areas Facility design considerations used in minimizing personnel time spent in radiation areas include

  • space within cubicles for a laydown area for special tools and ease of servicing activities.
  • instrumentation readouts, monitors, and control points located in low radiation zones.
  • provisions for removing components and transporting them to low radiation zones where shielding and special tools are available.
  • use of reach rods and remote operators for valves in high-radiation areas.

1.2.3.2 Minimizing Radiation Levels in Plant Access Areas and Vicinity of Equipment Facility general design considerations directed toward minimizing radiation levels in plant access areas and in the vicinity of equipment requiring personnel attention include the following:

  • shielding between components.
  • labyrinth entrances to reduce radiation streaming out of cubicle entrances.
  • shield wall penetrations configurations to prevent "line-of-sight" streaming.
  • pipe chases for pipes containing significant radioactive material.
  • radiation areas where station personnel spend substantial time are designed to the lowest practical dose rates.
  • curbing and sloped floors direct leakage to local drains or sumps to limit the spread of contamination from liquid systems.
  • tanks containing radioactive liquids are designed with sloped bottoms toward outlets and flushing or cleaning features.

cale US460 SDAA 12.1-4 Revision 0

  • pumps chosen to minimize leakage and provide housing drains.
  • radiation sources are separated from occupied areas where practicable (e.g., pipes or ducts containing high radioactive fluids not passing through occupied areas).
  • when permanent shielding is impractical, provisions for temporary shielding.
  • instrumentation designed, selected, and located with consideration for long service life, ease and low frequency of calibration, and low crud accumulation.
  • provisions to permit the rapid manipulation of shielding and insulation for equipment that requires periodic inspection or service.
  • adequate space for moveable or temporary shielding for sources.
  • means to control contamination and to facilitate decontamination of potentially contaminated areas.
  • piping for "clean services" (e.g., station air, potable water, nitrogen) is located separate from piping for contaminated systems to avoid cross-contamination.
  • features that permit remote removal, installation, inspection, or servicing of radioactive components.
  • design features such as ventilation isolation or filtration and heating ventilation and air conditioning design such that air flows from areas of lower radioactivity to areas of higher radioactivity to protect against airborne contamination.

1.3 Operational Considerations L Item 12.1-1: An applicant that references the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design will describe the operational program to maintain exposures to ionizing radiation as far below the dose limits as practical, as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).

cale US460 SDAA 12.1-5 Revision 0

This section describes the sources of both contained and airborne radiation that provide input to:

  • radiation shielding design calculations.
  • ventilation systems design.
  • radiation protection assessment, including personnel protection.

2.1 Contained Sources The contained radiation sources are developed for normal operation and shutdown conditions. The design basis primary coolant activity concentrations (Section 11.1) are the basis for the contained radiation sources. They are determined by propagating this radionuclide activity through various plant systems using the parameters and assumptions provided in this section. In order for the radiological source terms to be used in shielding calculations, the isotopic inventory is used to calculate the intensity and energy spectrum of the total emitted radiation. The ORIGEN-S code is used to bin the particle emissions into default energy bins based on the activity of each individual isotope. This section describes the radiation sources that provide part of the basis for the design of radiation shielding features. The radiation zone maps in Section 12.3 include drawings showing locations of contained sources.

2.1.1 Reactor Core During normal reactor operations, neutron and gamma radiation are released from the reactor core and from the primary coolant. This radiation is attenuated by the reactor internals, the reactor vessel, the containment vessel, the water surrounding the NuScale Power Module (NPM), the reactor pool concrete walls, and by the bioshield. Table 12.2-1 provides the fission neutron source strength as well as neutron energy spectrum information. The n-gamma and fission gamma source strength is internally generated by MCNP6 using the neutron source strength as an input. The fission neutron source utilizes the Watt spectrum for U-235.

2.1.2 Reactor Coolant System Radionuclides present in the reactor coolant system (RCS) are generated from the release of radioactive materials from postulated fuel clad defects and neutron activation of the primary coolant and impurities in the primary coolant.

The contribution of gamma radiation from the primary coolant is comprised of two components: the primary coolant at the steam generator entrance and at the core exit. The nitrogen-16 concentration is calculated at the core exit, the top of the upper riser/steam generator entrance, and at various points along the chemical and volume control system (CVCS) letdown line. Because of the low flow velocity cale US460 SDAA 12.2-1 Revision 0

corrosion and wear activation products (commonly referred to as CRUD) are uniformly modeled on a primary coolant mass basis. Tables 12.2-2 and 12.2-3 provide the primary coolant gamma spectra. Table 12.2-4 tabulates the nitrogen-16 concentration at several locations.

2.1.3 Chemical and Volume Control System The CVCS processes a portion of the RCS through heat exchangers, demineralizers, and filters. The treated primary coolant is then returned to the RCS (Section 9.3.4). During this treatment process, components of the CVCS can become radiation sources due to soluble and non-soluble radionuclides in the primary coolant. The CVCS contained sources are determined using the design basis coolant source term from Section 11.1 (Table 11.1-4).

Mixed-Bed and Cation Bed Demineralizers The CVCS mixed-bed demineralizers are modeled in continuous operation during the entire fuel cycle. The decontamination factors assumed are listed in Table 11.1-2.

The CVCS cation bed demineralizers are modeled in operation for one-half of the fuel cycle because they are operated intermittently during the operating cycle for lithium removal. Table 12.2-5 lists the assumed decontamination factors.

Tables 12.2-6 and 12.2-7 list the mixed-bed source terms and source strengths, respectively. These source terms and the associated analyses do not include short-term transients such as CRUD bursts associated with refueling outages.

This results in the estimates of activity within some plant structures, systems, and components to not reflect the CRUD-burst related activity, including the CVCS mixed-bed demineralizer values (both columns) in Table 12.2-6 and Table 12.2-7.

It is estimated that a CRUD burst could add up to 680 curies of CRUD isotopes to the CVCS mixed-bed demineralizer.

Regenerative and Non-Regenerative Heat Exchangers The CVCS regenerative and non-regenerative heat exchangers are shell and tube type, as described in Section 9.3.4. To calculate the radiological source term, the heat exchangers are assumed to be completely filled with primary coolant. The major source term model assumptions are listed in Table 12.2-5. The source term for the RCS water is found in Table 11.1-4.

Module Heatup System Heater The module heatup system heater is modeled with 100 percent design basis primary coolant using the parameters listed in Table 12.2-5.

cale US460 SDAA 12.2-2 Revision 0

A generic resin transfer line is modeled assuming it is 100 percent obstructed by resin beads from the CVCS mixed-bed demineralizer using a bulk dry resin density. Table 12.2-5 lists the parameters for modeled the generic resin transfer lines. The source term used for the spent resin transfer line is the CVCS mixed-bed demineralizer decayed for 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />, as provided in Table 12.2-6 and Table 12.2-7.

Reactor Coolant Filters The reactor coolant filters are cartridge filters located downstream of the ion exchangers that clean the primary coolant in the CVCS and are modeled to remove CRUD particulate. Table 12.2-5 lists the assumed filter efficiency.

Tables 12.2-6 and 12.2-7 list the filter source term and source strength, respectively.

2.1.4 Pool Cooling and Cleanup System During normal conditions of operation, the pool cooling and cleanup system (PCWS) provides for water level control and temperature maintenance of the reactor pool, the refueling pool and the spent fuel pool. It also removes impurities to reduce radiation exposures and to maintain water chemistry and clarity.

Section 9.1.3 further describes these system.

The pool cooling heat exchangers are conservatively assumed to be filled with reactor pool water even though the shell side is normally filled with site cooling water. Because the majority of the radioactivity consists of tritium, these heat exchangers do not represent a significant radiation source that requires radiation shielding. The PCWS demineralizers are assumed to collect the entire inventory of cleanable radioisotopes in the pool water as shown in Table 12.2-9. It is also assumed the PCWS demineralizers operate for two years, collecting the entire reactor pool water radionuclide inventory eight times (assuming a plant with 6 NPMs on an 18-month refueling cycle). The PCWS filters are assumed to collect CRUD particulates and are operated for one year.

Table 12.2-8 lists the input assumptions used to develop source terms.

Tables 12.2-9 and 12.2-10 provide the radionuclide source terms and source strengths respectively, for the equipment.

2.1.5 Liquid Radioactive Waste System The radionuclide inventory in the liquid radioactive waste system (LRWS) includes fission and activation products originating from the reactor core and the RCS.

Table 11.2-3 lists the estimated input flows from various sources to the high-conductivity waste (HCW) collection tanks, and the low-conductivity waste (LCW) collection tanks. These inputs are processed in batches by the liquid radioactive waste processing skids and sent to the HCW and LCW sample tanks for final disposition. Table 12.2-11 lists the assumed values for the LRW processing equipment radionuclide collection efficiencies and geometries.

cale US460 SDAA 12.2-3 Revision 0

2.1.6 Gaseous Radioactive Waste System The radionuclide input to the gaseous radioactive waste system (GRWS) comes primarily from the LRWS degasifier, which strips the dissolved gases from the primary coolant that enters the degasifier from the CVCS. The gases from the degasifier are sent to the GRWS for conditioning and processing. Table 12.2-14 lists the assumed values pertaining to the GRWS source geometries and Table 11.3-1 describes the GRWS processing parameters. Tables 12.2-15 and 12.2-16 respectively, provide the GRWS component source terms and strengths.

The radioisotopic inventory shown in Table 12.2-15 for the GRWS guard bed and decay beds results in a lesser RG 1.143 safety classification than what is shown in Table 11.3-2. Because an end of operating cycle degasification evolution could result in a transient radioisotopic inventory that exceeds RW-IIb, the classification of the guard bed and decay beds are increased to RW-IIa to cover such transients, as reflected in Table 11.3-2.

2.1.7 Solid Radioactive Waste System Table 12.2-17 lists the assumed values used to develop the solid radioactive waste system (SRWS) component sources modeling in shielding analysis.

Table 12.2-18 lists the radionuclide inventory of the major SRWS components and Table 12.2-19 lists the SRWS component source strengths. For shielding design purposes, it is assumed that the Class A/B/C high integrity container (HIC) storage area contains five HICs loaded with Class B/C dewatered spent resins from the spent resin storage tank, which is decayed for approximately two years.

Table 12.2-12b provides the radionuclide inventory of the drum dryer and Table 12.2-13b provides the drum dryer source strength. Storage areas are shielded to limit the radiation level to be compliant with the designated radiation zone.

2.1.8 Reactor Pool Water There are two sources of radioactive material considered for the reactor pool water: primary coolant released during refueling outages and direct neutron activation. Because of the low power and low temperatures in the spent fuel pool, the radionuclide contribution to the pool water from defective fuel assemblies in the storage racks is considered negligible. The primary source of radionuclides in the reactor pool comes from the primary coolant system when an NPM is disassembled in the reactor pool during outages. During refueling outages, after the primary coolant is cleaned by the CVCS, the remaining quantities of radionuclides are released into the pool water during NPM disassembly. The post-CRUD burst cleanup of the primary coolant in the NPM by CVCS continues until the projected dose rate (after NPM disassembly) at 1 meter above the pool water is less than 5 mrem/hr. Table 12.2-8 lists the major input assumptions for the pool water source term and PCWS component shielding modeling.

cale US460 SDAA 12.2-4 Revision 0

water. The neutron flux at the outside edge of the containment vessel is many orders of magnitude less than the average neutron flux in the core and continues to decrease in the reactor pool borated water. The amount of neutron activation products in the reactor pool water is determined to be insignificant compared to the amount of primary coolant radionuclides released to the reactor pool water during refueling outages.

Table 12.2-8 lists the characteristics of the pool surge control storage tank, which is modeled as a vertical cylinder.

Tables 12.2-9 and 12.2-10 provide the source terms and source strengths respectively, for the pool water and pool surge control storage tank.

2.1.9 Spent Fuel Spent fuel stored in the spent fuel racks presents a radiation source that is shielded by the water in the spent fuel pool as well as by the pool walls. The same methodology used to determine the maximum core isotopic source term in Section 11.1 is used to develop the spent fuel source term, resulting in the bounding assumption that the spent fuel racks are filled with irradiated fuel assemblies. Spent fuel gamma ray and neutron source strengths are considered in the evaluation of radiation levels for fuel handling and spent fuel storage.

Spent fuel gamma ray source strengths are presented in Table 12.2-20 for a spent fuel rack full of irradiated fuel assemblies. Spent fuel neutron source strengths are given in Table 12.2-21 for the same spent fuel rack.

2.1.10 In-Core Instruments There are 12 fuel assemblies distributed in the reactor core that are instrumented with in-core instruments. Each of the 12 instruments contains self-powered neutron detectors and thermocouples. During reactor operations, the in-core instruments are irradiated, resulting in activation. Table 12.2-22 lists the major input assumptions and Table 12.2-23 provides the gamma spectra.

2.1.11 Control Rods and Secondary Source Rods Control Rod Assemblies Because the reactor core operates in an all-rods-out configuration, it is assumed that only the tip of the control rod is irradiated. This portion of the control rod assembly (CRA) consists of Ag-In-Cd neutron absorber. Table 12.2-24 lists the major input assumptions and Table 12.2-25 lists the CRA gamma spectra. The activated source from the CRA tips peaks early, therefore the source term reported is for end of Cycle 1.

cale US460 SDAA 12.2-5 Revision 0

The secondary source is antimony and beryllium (Sb-Be) and is irradiated for 40 cycles. Flux is the same as for the in-core instruments (Section 12.2.1.10).

Table 12.2-26 lists the gamma ray source strengths associated with the secondary source rods.

2.1.12 Secondary Coolant System Primary-to-secondary leaks through the steam generator can introduce primary coolant activity into the secondary system with the resultant contamination level being dependent on the activity level in the primary coolant and the magnitude of the steam generator leak. Because the condensate polishing system is a full-flow system, the condensate polishers are evaluated for the radioactive material that could accumulate on the resins during the period between resin regenerations.

Assuming the secondary coolant is at the design basis concentrations (Table 11.1-5), resin decontamination factors consistent with NUREG-0017, and a 10-day resin regeneration period, the accumulation of radioactive material is less than 100 mCi. The model excludes tritium from this activity because tritium does not accumulate on the resin.

2.1.13 Post-Accident Sources The iodine spike design basis source term (Section 15.0.3 describes the maximum primary coolant activity released from the design bases accidents) is evaluated for equipment qualification (EQ) in and around an NPM. Three volumes associated with the NPM are modeled for design basis accident EQ dose consequences from a design basis accident: the reactor pressure vessel and containment vessel combined liquid sump volume, the containment vapor volume, and the bioshield envelope volume. The iodine spike design basis source term maximum post-accident activity concentrations used for EQ evaluation are provided on a mass basis in Table 12.2-31. The specific concentration values in Table 12.2-31 are in excess of the values that would be calculated using the methodology in TR-0915-17565-P-A (Reference 12.2-4), with the design inputs provided in Chapter 11 and Chapter 12. Plateout of activity onto containment surfaces is neglected due to the small containment volume and the lack of surface coatings inside containment. There is also no aerosol removal assumed. Other assumptions for the post-accident EQ source term are listed in Table 12.2-27. The three volumes are evaluated with conservative assumptions, including instantaneous and homogeneous releases into the volume of interest.

Table 12.2-28 lists the integrated post-accident source energy deposition versus time for both photons and electrons for the three evaluated volumes.

Table 12.2-28 also tabulates the integrated doses for various times post-accident.

Section 3.11 and Appendix 3C contain additional details on EQ. Consistent with 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(vii), areas that could contain core damage post-accident sources are evaluated for equipment protection. Section 19.2 addresses equipment protection from a core damage source term.

There are no other identified contained sources that exceed 100 mCi.

L Item 12.2-1: An applicant that references the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design will describe additional site-specific contained radiation sources that exceed 100 millicuries (including sources for instrumentation and radiography) not identified in Section 12.2.1.

2.2 Airborne Radioactive Material Sources This section describes the airborne radioactive material sources that form part of the basis for design of ventilation systems and personnel protective measures, and also are considered in personnel dose assessment.

2.2.1 Reactor Building Atmosphere Airborne radioactivity may be present in the reactor building (RXB) atmosphere due to reactor pool evaporation or primary coolant leakage. The airborne concentration is modeled as a buildup to an equilibrium concentration given the production rate and removal rate, and on an evaporation rate calculated following the model in the Heating, Ventilating, and Air-conditioning Applications Handbook (Reference 12.2-3). The concentration of tritium in the reactor pool water is developed assuming the primary coolant letdown is recycled to the reactor pool.

The concentration of tritium in the primary coolant leakage is developed assuming the primary coolant letdown is recycled back to the RCS. Each case maximizes the tritium concentration in the fluid of interest using the concentrations in Table 11.1-8. The airborne concentration in the air space above the reactor pool is determined by using the peak reactor pool water source term. Table 12.2-29 lists the input parameters.

A ( ) = ( C pool x p f x F evap ) ( + ( F air V air ) )

where, A ( ) = equilibrium airborne concentration, Cpool = pool water concentration, pf = partition fraction,

= decay constant, Fair/Vair = air change rate, and Fevap = pool evaporation rate = A/Y(pw-pa)(95+0.425V),

cale US460 SDAA 12.2-7 Revision 0

A = area of pool surface, ft2 Y = Latent heat of evaporation at surface water temperature, Btu/lb pw = saturation vapor pressure at surface water temperature, in. Hg pa = saturation vapor pressure at room air dew point, in. Hg V = air velocity of water surface, fpm.

Primary coolant leaks can occur in the RXB from the CVCS. In areas that are routinely occupied, the RXB heating ventilation and air conditioning system provides sufficient air flow to maintain airborne concentrations to acceptable levels where CVCS leaks are a potential. The airborne concentrations in the RXB cubicles are determined using the same equilibrium model as the reactor pool area, but using CVCS leaks for the production term.

A ( ) = ( PCA x p leak x p f x F leak ) ( + ( F air /V air ) )

where, A ( ) = equilibrium airborne concentration, PCA = primary coolant activity concentration, pleak = leak flashing fraction, pf = partition fraction, Fleak = primary coolant leak rate,

= radioactive decay constant, and Fair/Vair = air change rate.

Table 12.2-30 lists the resultant airborne isotopic concentration in the RXB atmosphere. Section 12.3.4 describes monitoring airborne radioactivity within the air spaces of the facility. Section 11.5 describes monitoring gaseous effluents.

2.2.2 Turbine Building Atmosphere Section 12.2.1.12 considers the secondary coolant to be clean for normal operating conditions. Therefore, the Turbine Building atmosphere contains minimal airborne radioactive material.

This section describes the incorporation of radiation protection design features in the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design facilities. These include features to reduce both onsite and offsite exposures and to protect the environment. The facility incorporates design features using the guidance of U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and industry documents (e.g., Regulatory Guide (RG) 8.8, RG 4.21, and NEI 08-08A) to ensure compliance with applicable regulations such as 10 CFR 20.1101, 10 CFR 20.1406 and 10 CFR 50.34.

3.1 Facility Design Features The following discussion contains specific system and facility design features that implement as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) principles to the NuScale plant design. The design engineers incorporate these design features during the design process using applicable operating experience.

3.1.1 Equipment Design This section provides specific design features for component types that aid in maintaining occupational exposures ALARA.

3.1.1.1 Tanks The use of tanks with bottoms that slope toward outlets and, where practicable, providing built in spray features, spargers and eductors for mixing tank contents reduce radiation sources from sedimentation in tanks.

The tanks in the liquid radioactive waste (LRWS) and solid radioactive waste systems (SRWS) are stainless steel with sloped bottoms. The LRWS collection tanks and the solid radioactive waste storage tanks contain mixing eductors or spargers.

Tanks that are expected to contain radioactive contaminated fluids are of welded construction with a smooth interior finish that minimizes crevices and crud traps.

Tanks have overflow lines routed to receiving tanks, sumps or drains. Tank level alarms protect against overflow situations. The vents and drains associated with tanks containing contaminated fluids are processed by the building ventilation and the radioactive waste drain systems, respectively.

Tank materials are designed to be compatible with the service environment to reduce corrosion and leaks.

The pool cooling and cleanup system (PCWS) storage tank is located in a steel-lined catch basin with sufficient capacity to contain the tank volume along with its associated piping.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-1 Revision 0

Remotely actuated valves are used to minimize personnel exposures, where practicable. Many valves are also located in valve galleries to provide additional shielding.

Double isolation valves are used at the interface between contaminated and non-contaminated systems to prevent cross-contamination.

Valves are designed to fail to the safe position upon a loss of power or air to the valve operator.

Full-port ball valves are used in the SRWS and the PCWS slurry lines to reduce potential crud traps.

Relief valves are provided to protect equipment and the relief discharge is directed toward the radioactive waste drain system (RWDS) to minimize the spread of contamination.

Reach-rods are used for valves in some applications.

Where practicable, valves are installed in the "stem-up" orientation.

Valves are designed to be repacked without removing the yoke or topworks.

3.1.1.3 Piping Construction and fabrication techniques employed by the following systems are used to exclude crevices and crud traps: LRWS, SRWS, PCWS, chemical and volume control system (CVCS), and radioactive waste drain system (RWDS). The SRWS deploys sloping, bends, and long radius elbows to minimize crud traps.

The LRWS and SRWS piping is provided with clean-in-place and flushing capabilities to reduce the buildup of crud and other contaminates. The CVCS and the PCWS have flushing connections to aid in the removal of contamination and reduce potential exposures to plant personnel.

Piping is designed for the lifetime of the facility.

System piping that contains radioactive fluids uses welded construction and smooth internal surfaces, as practicable. Whenever practicable, horizontal resin sluice lines are sloped to facilitate draining and prevent potential hot spots.

Embedded or underground piping is limited to the extent practical.

Underground pipes containing radioactive liquids, such as LRWS and PCWS piping, are enclosed within structured pipe chases or are double-walled. The CVCS, the process sampling system (PSS), and resin sluice pipes that are cale US460 SDAA 12.3-2 Revision 0

3.1.1.4 Pumps Pump leakage is reduced by using canned pumps whenever they are compatible with service needs.

The LRWS uses centrifugal pumps to minimize potential for crud traps.

Where appropriate, the design uses pumps with flanged connections for removal to low dose area for maintenance.

Drain connections on pump casings are provided where appropriate to reduce the radiation field during pump servicing.

3.1.1.5 Heat Exchangers Heat exchangers are designed for complete drainage before maintenance activities.

Flushing connections are provided for heat exchangers, where appropriate.

Heat exchangers use corrosion resistant materials to minimize need for replacement and internal surfaces are smoothed to be free of crevices.

Where practicable, heat exchangers are designed such that the contaminated fluid is on the tube side.

3.1.1.6 Instrumentation Whenever practicable, remote (in low dose areas) instruments and transmitters are used for systems with radioactive fluids.

Instruments in high radiation areas are designed to be easily removable.

Instrument sensing lines containing contaminated fluids are designed with back-flushing capability.

The locations and equipment specifications for seismic monitoring equipment (per RG 1.12) reduce the frequency and duration of testing, inspection or maintenance of seismic monitoring equipment.

3.1.1.7 Ventilation The Reactor Building HVAC system (RBVS) and the Radioactive Waste Building HVAC system (RWBVS) are once-through systems changing air volume from 0.5 to two times per hour for potentially contaminated areas. The design permits convenient inspection, maintenance and decontamination, and facilitates the replacement of critical components such as filters, fans, and cale US460 SDAA 12.3-3 Revision 0

where low levels of airborne contamination may be present toward areas of higher potential contamination. The exhaust ducts consist of straight runs and long radius elbows to reduce the buildup of contaminated particulate. The duct air velocity is kept at sufficiently high velocities to keep particulates suspended. Construction materials have smooth internal and external surface finishes to aid in decontamination. Back draft dampers are provided at each tank and equipment connection where required to prevent blowback in the event of an exhaust system trip.

Section 12.3.3 discusses ventilation systems.

3.1.1.8 Floor Drains Floor drains are provided for rooms and cubicles with components containing radioactive fluids that might leak or be spilled from process equipment or sampling stations.

Drain piping that is shielded by pipe chases, or otherwise shielded to reduce personnel exposure, include leak detection and confinement such that the fluid is contained.

3.1.1.9 Filters Filters for reactor coolant and potentially high-activity applications incorporate shielding, remote handling equipment, and radiation monitoring instrumentation to aid in maintaining personnel exposures ALARA.

Cartridge filter housings are designed with isolation valves, vents, and drains to allow the spent filter to be drained before maintenance activities.

Cartridge filter housings have minimal internal crevices to minimize the buildup of crud.

The design and configuration of filter housings and cartridges are standardized such that the same equipment and procedures can be used to change out spent filters.

3.1.1.10 Demineralizers Resin transfer operations are performed remotely through piping that is routed through a shielded pipe chase. Portions of piping that are not located in a shielded pipe chase are shielded to reduce the potential for worker exposure.

If necessary, administrative controls are enacted when high-activity resin transfers are planned to ensure that areas where high radiation may occur during the resin transfer are evacuated of personnel.

Demineralizers are designed and configured to allow for full drainage.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-4 Revision 0

3.1.1.11 Charcoal Beds The redundant charcoal bed skids of the gaseous radioactive waste system (GRWS) are located in individual shielded cubicles.

Radiation detectors monitor the charcoal bed cubicles for gas leaks.

3.1.1.12 Sample Stations Radiation protection design features are incorporated into the design of sample stations for radioactive fluid. Primary coolant samples are routed to sample stations to minimize radiation dose from local sample points. Sample stations are shielded and are located in low-dose areas to minimize occupational exposures. Shielding of sample stations for primary coolant is achieved by routing sample lines in shielded pipe chases to the extent practicable. Sampling components that contain potentially radioactive fluids are located in shielded compartments or away from the sample panel to the extent practicable. Reactor coolant grab sample stations are equipped with vent hoods to reduce personnel exposure.

Sample stations contain flushing provisions with drains routed to the LRWS.

The laboratory and counting room are designed to provide low background radiation.

3.1.1.13 Material Selection Proper material selection is an important factor to balance component performance while reducing the amount of corrosion and activation products generated. The use of materials containing cobalt and nickel is minimized to reduce the quantity of activation products. Ni-Cr-Fe alloys, such as Inconel, have a high nickel content that can become Co-58 when activated. Production of Co-58 and Co-60 are reduced by utilizing low nickel and low cobalt bearing materials, to the extent practicable.

In limited situations, the selection of materials containing higher percentages of cobalt (e.g., hard face materials) or nickel (e.g., Alloy 690TT steam generator (SG) tubing) is preferable from a design standpoint. In these cases, the additional generation of activation products is balanced against component reliability to achieve the lowest overall personnel exposure. These types of materials are used only where operating experience suggests that it is the preferred option. Alloy 690TT is the material used for SG tubing because of its high resistance to corrosion.

Systems use stainless steel, or stainless steel clad, for components and piping where corrosion resistance and water quality is an important consideration (e.g., components that can come into contact with primary cale US460 SDAA 12.3-5 Revision 0

RG 1.143.

The reactor pressure vessel (RPV), control rod drive mechanisms (CRDMs),

and containment vessel (CNV) materials are predominately low alloy steels, clad with stainless steel, and austenitic stainless steels. The use of cobalt containing materials in contact with the primary coolant, such as Stellite, is limited to a small number of wear components such as CRDM latches, hard faces, springs and control rod assembly hub connection couplings (Haynes Alloy-25). Table 12.3-3 summarizes the typical cobalt content for materials and components.

3.1.2 Plant and Layout Design Features for as Low as Reasonably Achievable This section provides descriptions and examples of facility design features to reduce personnel exposures in accordance with the guidance of RG 8.8 and the ALARA principle.

3.1.2.1 Pipe Routing Whenever possible, pipes with radioactive fluids are routed through pipe chases or shielded areas, and away from pipes for "clean" services.

If pipes with radioactive fluids are routed near clean service pipes, provisions for isolation and draining of the radioactive pipes are provided.

Piping is designed to minimize "dead legs" and low points.

3.1.2.2 Valve Galleries Valve galleries are provided in several locations to protect plant operators from radiation exposures from process equipment. Floors are sloped towards local drain hubs to collect leakage. Concrete surfaces within the valve galleries are coated to facilitate decontamination.

3.1.2.3 Penetrations Penetrations through shield walls are minimized as much as practicable.

If penetrations through shield walls are necessary, the penetrations are designed to minimize streaming (e.g., with an offset) from a radiation source to accessible areas. If penetration offsets are not practical, then penetrations are either shielded or elevated above floor level. Shield wall penetrations are compensated to comply with the associated radiation zone map dose rates for normally accessible areas.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-6 Revision 0

Radioactive system components are located separately from "clean" components as much as practicable. Individual components of a radioactive system are typically located in separate shielded compartments with short piping runs between components. Where appropriate, shielded valve galleries are employed to allow system operation while shielding operators from high radiation components.

3.1.2.5 Lighting Adequate lighting is provided in radiation areas requiring access to facilitate surveillance and maintenance activities. Light fixtures are located in accessible areas to reduce replacement time. Multiple light fixtures are provided to reduce the need for immediate light bulb replacement. Emergency lighting fixtures reduce personnel exposures by permitting prompt egress from radiation areas if normal lighting fails.

3.1.2.6 Cubicles Shielded cubicles are provided for components containing significant radioactive sources. Cubicles are lined with stainless steel to a height necessary to contain the contents of the residing component plus piping drainage. In the event of a leak or spill, cubicle floors slope toward floor drains that are connected to sump tanks.

3.1.3 Radiation Zoning and Access Control 3.1.3.1 Normal Conditions The plant is analyzed for expected radiation levels resulting from normal operation. Because potential airborne exposures are possible in portions of the Reactor Building (RXB), principally due to off-gassing from the reactor pool and possible leaks or spills, airborne radiation zones are also developed.

Radiation levels are categorized along with anticipated personnel occupancy in Table 12.3-1, which tabulates the radiation zone categories and their access descriptions. Table 12.3-2 tabulates the airborne zone categories and their access descriptions.

Figures 12.3-1a through 12.3-1h show the normal operation radiation zones for the RXB. Table 12.3-4a and Table 12.3-4b list the areas that have the potential for airborne radiation in the RXB and the Radioactive Waste Building (RWB), respectively. Figure 12.3-2a through Figure 12.3-2c show the normal operation radiation zones for the RWB. The radiation zones are based on conservative assumptions related to source terms and are not intended to reflect the anticipated dose rates over the entire area.

Access to radiologically controlled areas (RCAs) is controlled by the facility's radiation protection staff. Access control facilities are provided to control the entrance and exit of personnel and materials into and out of the RCA. Access cale US460 SDAA 12.3-7 Revision 0

High radiation areas either are locked or have alarmed barriers. For areas that are not within lockable enclosures or other barriers, the area is barricaded and posted, and be provided with a visible warning light. Positive control is exercised over each individual entry when access to the area is required, and egress from the area is not impeded.

L Item 12.3-1: An applicant that references the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design will develop the administrative controls regarding access to high radiation areas per the guidance of Regulatory Guide 8.38.

Very high-radiation areas are locked. Positive control is exercised over each individual entry when access to the area is required, and egress from the area is not impeded. Access to very high-radiation areas complies with guidance in RG 8.38. Based on the design and calculations, there are no very high-radiation areas.

L Item 12.3-2: An applicant that references the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design will develop the administrative controls regarding access to very high radiation areas per the guidance of Regulatory Guide 8.38.

L Item 12.3-3: An applicant that references the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design will specify personnel exposure monitoring hardware, specify contamination identification and removal hardware, and establish administrative controls and procedures to control access into and exiting the radiologically controlled area.

3.1.3.2 Accident Conditions Post-accident access is discussed in Section 12.4.1 and equipment qualification is addressed in Section 12.2.1 and Section 3.11. A radiation and shielding design review is performed of spaces around systems that may contain core damage source term materials, consistent with 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(vii). The resultant equipment protection from a core damage source term is addressed in Section 19.2. Area radiation monitors are provided to indicate the post-accident radiation levels, to monitor plant areas during the progression of a postulated accident, and provide local indication to plant personnel before area entry.

Section 7.1 contains additional information on post-accident monitoring (PAM) instrumentation.

3.2 Shielding 3.2.1 Design Bases The design function of shielding is to limit dose from plant radiation sources under normal operations and postulated accident conditions in accordance with General Design Criterion (GDC) 61, 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(vii), and 10 CFR 50.49.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-8 Revision 0

Shielding performance is in accordance with the following criteria:

  • dose limits of principal design criteria (PDC) 19 In addition, plant layout and shielding are used to limit equipment radiation doses to levels that are consistent with the assumptions used to demonstrate environmental qualification.

3.2.2 Design Considerations Shielding is provided for radioactive systems and components to reduce radiation levels commensurate with area personnel access requirements and ALARA principles. Section 12.3.1 describes the radiation zones and indicates the radiation levels for those plant areas.

Section 12.3.1 describes shielding design features including permanent shielding and separation of components that constitute substantial radiation sources, the use of shielded cubicles, labyrinths, and shielded entrances to minimize radiation exposures. The selection of shielding materials considers the ambient environment and potential degradation mechanisms. Temporary shielding is considered where it is impractical to provide permanent shielding for substantial radiation sources.

Consistent with RG 8.8, streaming of radiation into accessible areas through penetrations for pipes, ducts, and other shield discontinuities is reduced by using layouts that prevent alignment with the radiation source, placing penetrations above head height to reduce personnel exposures, and using shadow shields to attenuate radiation streaming.

Consistent with RG 8.8, shielding analysis employs accurate modeling techniques and conservative approaches in the determination of shielding thickness. Source terms, geometries, and field intensities are analyzed conservatively. In addition to normal conditions, source terms include transient conditions such as resin transfers.

The material used for a significant portion of plant shielding is concrete. For most applications, concrete shielding is designed in accordance with American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS) 6.4-2006 (Reference 12.3-1). Table 12.3-5 and Table 12.3-6 show the shielding thicknesses assumed in the shielding analyses in plant buildings. In addition to concrete, other types of materials such as steel, water, tungsten, and polymer composites are considered for both permanent and temporary shielding. The use of lead is minimized.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-9 Revision 0

open doorways.

Shield floor plugs provide an equivalent radiation attenuation as the shield floor that contains the plug.

3.2.3 Calculation Methods The primary computer program to evaluate shielding is Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code (MCNP6) (Reference 12.3-2), which was developed by Los Alamos National Laboratory. The MCNP6 code is used for shielding calculations and for dose rate determinations.

Radioactive components in the RXB and RWB are modeled using MCNP6.

Section 12.2 describes the codes used to prepare source strength input data. A three-dimensional shielding model is constructed for radioactive components using structure, location, and equipment data. Source geometries and source term distributions and intensities are conservatively determined. In general, the component source geometries are modeled as cylindrical volumes that incorporate the full volume of the component.

Shielding credit and material selections for MCNP6 cells are conservatively applied. Credit is not taken for reinforcing steel bars in the concrete. Table 12.3-5 and Table 12.3-6 describe the credited shield barriers for the RWB and RXB in terms of nominal concrete equivalent thicknesses. The design provides equivalent density thicknesses for the barrier described using a variety of structural design solutions.

The reactor shielding calculations consider dose rates from fission neutrons, fission photons, and gamma output from buildup of radioisotopes in the reactor coolant. The NuScale Power Module (NPM) model is conservatively developed using methods similar to the building evaluations.

The fission neutron and fission photon output is based on a total power output of 250 MWt and energy spectra are described in Section 12.2. The gamma output from the reactor coolant is based on the reactor coolant isotopic inventory described in Section 12.2. In order to reduce complexity, some region densities (e.g., water and piping in the SGs) are homogenized in the MCNP model. This simplification does not result in significant differences in dose rates.

The shielding thicknesses are selected to reduce the aggregate dose rate from significant radiation sources in surrounding areas to values below the upper limit of the radiation zone depicted in the zone maps (Figure 12.3-1a though Figure 12.3-1h). Radiation zones are selected to facilitate personnel access for operation and maintenance.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-10 Revision 0

3.2.4.1 NuScale Power Module Biological shielding is provided above each NPM to allow personnel access.

The bioshield provides shielding using concrete, steel, and high-density polyethelene (HDPE).The bioshield design and the venting of radiolytically-generated gases from the HDPE shielding are described in Section 3.7.3.

Degradation of the polyethylene radiation shielding material could potentially occur if the exhaust ventilation provided for the reactor module bays does not maintain air temperatures under the bioshield less than 180°F (e.g., due to damper failure). Therefore, conditions in which the air temperature under the bioshield exceeds 180°F require an evaluation of the continued efficacy of the bioshield polyethylene material's radiation shielding properties.

The CNV, pool water, and pool wall provide shielding and attenuation. The pool wall thickness is used for attenuating radiation from the radiation sources associated with the NPM.

Pool wall penetrations into the reactor module bay are modeled using MCNP6, with the shield voids occupied by the piping, HVAC ducting, cabling, and insulation, as designed for the penetrations. The model includes filler materials between the void spaces following design standard specifications for shielding penetrations. Calculations performed to determine the doses in areas near the module bay shielding penetrations show that the US460 design provides adequate protection from radiation streaming. These penetration compensatory measures provide protection of equipment, and reduce exposures to workers and the public.

3.2.4.2 Main Control Room The dose rate in the main control room (MCR) during normal operations is negligible. The Control Building (CRB) room locations and elevations are shown in figures provided in Section 1.2. The CRB walls are designed to attenuate radiation from the RXB. As indicated by Table 15.0-10, the PDC 19 dose acceptance criteria for the control room are met for postulated accidents.

3.2.4.3 Reactor Building In general, the calculated dose rates in open areas and corridors of the RXB are less than five mrem/hr during normal operation as shown in the radiation zone maps (Figure 12.3-1a through Figure 12.3-1h).

The RXB includes systems that contain radioactive components. The major radiation sources in the RXB are associated with the NPM (Section 12.3.2.4.1), chemical volume and control system, the pool cooling and cleanup system (PCWS), liquid radwaste degasifiers, and spent fuel storage. The shielding designs for these systems are described below.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-11 Revision 0

The CVCS contains radioactive ion exchangers, filters, and heat exchangers.

The CVCS components and piping are located below grade in the RXB as shown in the radiation zone maps.

The filters, ion exchangers, and heat exchangers are located in shielded cubicles. The knockout panels for accessing the CVCS ion exchangers provide equivalent shielding as the wall in which they are located. The CVCS filters and resin traps are accessible via removable floor shield plugs for maintenance purposes. The labyrinths in the cubicles provide shielding that significantly lowers the dose rates from areas adjacent to the radioactive component.

The CVCS is equipped with a resin transfer line used to transport resin slurry to the SRWS. The line is generically modeled in the RXB shielding model using the CVCS mixed-bed demineralizer transfer spectra, decayed for 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />. Resin transfers are planned evolutions to minimize operator exposure in accordance with ALARA principles.

Primary coolant piping in CVCS equipment rooms is shielded to minimize surveillance and maintenance dose rates. The reactor coolant system (RCS) discharge lines, which travel from the modules to the CVCS heat exchangers and purification equipment through a shielded pipe chase, are a radioactive source in the CVCS.

The CVCS design features that reduce radiation exposures are described in Section 9.3.4, Chemical and Volume Control System.

Pool Cooling and Cleanup Systems During normal conditions of operation, the pool cooling and cleanup system (PCWS) provides for water level control and temperature maintenance of the reactor pool, the refueling pool (RFP) and the spent fuel pool (SFP). It also removes impurities to reduce radiation exposures and to maintain water chemistry and clarity.

For purposes of radiation shielding, the pool cooling heat exchangers are a minimal source of external radiation, and do not require shielding.

The design features of the pool cooling and cleanup systems that reduce radiation exposures are described in Section 9.1.3.

Degasifier Room The LRWS degasifiers receive primary letdown and pressurizer vent flow from the CVCS. The degasifier contributes minor dose rates to the adjacent mechanical rooms and surrounding corridors and is acceptable for operations and maintenance activities. Mechanical skids for each degasifier are located in the adjacent mechanical room.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-12 Revision 0

The ultimate heat sink (UHS) is a safety-related pool of borated water that consists of the combined water volume of the reactor pool, RFP, and spent fuel pool. The UHS pool is located below grade in the RXB. The UHS provides shielding for the spent fuel assemblies in the SFP and the RFP as described in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2.5.

Shielding for radiation protection is maintained by the fuel handling equipment as described in Section 9.1.4.

Spent fuel is stored in the spent fuel pool, as described in Section 9.1. The radiation shielding provided by the pool water and the pool walls surrounding the fuel keeps radiation dose rates in the lower levels of the RXB within acceptance criteria.

3.2.4.4 Radioactive Waste Building The RWB houses significant radiation sources that belong to the radioactive waste processing systems, and pool cooling and cleanup system components. The specifics of these systems are discussed below. The radiation zone maps are located in Figures 12.3-2a through 12.3-2b.

Liquid Radioactive Waste System The LRWS is primarily located below grade in the RWB. The low-conductivity waste (LCW) and high-conductivity waste (HCW) sample tanks (two of each) contain LRWS water that is processed to comply with discharge or recycle requirements.

The LCW and HCW collection tanks are located in separate shielded compartments in the RWB. The respective transfer pumps for these tanks are located in shared compartments in the RWB. Each pair of transfer pumps is separated by sufficient space to allow room for temporary shielding, as well as space for tools, spare parts, and personnel.

Liquid radioactive waste demineralizers are located in a shared shielding labyrinth. Additional filtration systems are located on modular skids with integrated process shielding.

Additional shielding is modeled for the processing skids containing the LCW demineralizers as noted in Table 12.3-6.

Gaseous Radioactive Waste System The gaseous radioactive waste system (GRWS) is located in the RWB. The GRWS components are generally located in separate, shielded compartments.

bed that is separated by a shield wall.

The remaining GRWS components, consisting of gas heat exchangers (vapor condensers) and moisture separators, occupy a shared shielded compartment, separate from the decay beds and the guard bed, located in the RWB.

Solid Radioactive Waste System The SRWS is located in the RWB. The SRWS components are generally located in separate, shielded compartments.

The two phase separator tanks and the two spent resin tanks are located in individual shielded compartments. The respective transfer pumps for these tanks are located in shared compartments in the RWB. Each pair of transfer pumps is separated by sufficient space to allow room for temporary shielding, as well as space for tools, spare parts, and personnel.

The SRWS consists of both Class A and Class B/C waste storage areas. A Class A waste package storage area is located at grade level. The Class A high integrity container (HIC) and Class B/C HIC storage area is located on the lower level. Access to the HIC storage area is through floor shield plugs.

Additional shielding is modeled for the HIC process shield, and an external shield is modeled outside a penetration through the HIC storage room shield wall, as noted in Table 12.3-6.

Pool Cooling and Cleanup The PCWS demineralizers and filters are located in shielded cubicles in the RWB. The dose rates in surrounding areas are acceptable for operations or maintenance activities.

3.3 Ventilation The plant HVAC systems are designed to provide a controlled environment for personnel and equipment during normal operation. In areas subject to airborne radioactivity, the ventilation systems are designed to collect, process, and direct airflow to processed exhausts (Section 9.4, HVAC Systems). This section discusses the radiation control considerations of the HVAC systems design.

3.3.1 Design Objectives Design objectives for the plant HVAC systems include the following:

  • During normal plant operations, the airborne radioactivity levels to which plant personnel are exposed in radiation controlled areas are maintained ALARA and within the limits specified in 10 CFR 20. The airborne radioactivity cale US460 SDAA 12.3-14 Revision 0
  • During normal plant operations, the dose from airborne radioactive material exposure in unrestricted areas is maintained ALARA and within the limits specified in 10 CFR 20.1301 and 10 CFR 50, Appendix I.
  • The dose to the control room personnel does not exceed the limits specified in PDC 19 following the design basis accidents described in Chapter 15.

3.3.2 Design Features to Minimize Personnel Exposure from Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Equipment The design of the building ventilation systems maintain a negative pressure where required with respect to the outside environs and create air flow inside the building from areas of low airborne potential contamination to areas of higher airborne potential contamination.

Other design features that minimize radiation exposures to personnel are listed below.

  • The design of the plant ventilation systems incorporates the guidance of RG 8.8.
  • Ventilation fans and filters are provided with adequate access space to permit servicing with minimum personnel radiation exposure. The HVAC system is designed to allow rapid replacement of components. Filter-adsorber unit performance complies with the recommendations of RG 1.140.
  • Ventilation ducts are designed to minimize the buildup of radioactive contamination within the ducts.
  • Access to ventilation systems in potentially radioactive areas can result in personnel exposure during maintenance, inspection, and testing. Equipment is located in low-dose areas as much as practicable, with most equipment being located outside of rooms that contain significant radiation sources. The outside air supply units and building exhaust system components have adequate work space provided around each unit for anticipated maintenance, testing, and inspection.

3.3.3 Reactor Building Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning System During normal operation, the RBVS services the areas inside the RXB by providing conditioned and filtered outside air. The exhaust from the spent fuel pool area is filtered by a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter. If the spent fuel pool exhaust radiation monitors detect radioactivity above their setpoints, the exhaust flow from the spent fuel pool area is diverted to go through an additional HEPA filter and charcoal adsorbers. Section 9.4.2, Reactor Building HVAC, contains additional details.

The dry dock area has dedicated exhaust vents to entrain airborne contamination that may result from air being exposed to NPM components during maintenance activities.

cale US460 SDAA 12.3-15 Revision 0

The design provides adequate space for temporary shielding to minimize personnel exposures during maintenance of ventilation equipment, including filters, inspection, and testing. In addition, the filter units have design features that minimize the time required for filter changes.

3.3.4 Radioactive Waste Building Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning System The RWBVS serves the RWB as a once-through system. Outside air is introduced by the main supply air handling unit (AHU) and is exhausted through the RBVS exhaust system. The main supply AHU contains both low and medium efficiency outside air filters. Supply air from the main RWBVS is distributed throughout the RWB. Exhaust air is collected and conveyed to the RBVS general area exhaust subsystem and exhausted through the main stack. The RWBVS maintains airflow from areas of lesser potential contamination to areas of greater potential contamination. The RWBVS also maintains the RWB atmosphere at a slight negative pressure with respect to the outside. Section 9.4.3, Radioactive Waste Building HVAC, contains additional details.

3.3.5 Normal Control Room Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning System During normal operations, the normal control room HVAC system (CRVS) supplies conditioned air to the CRB, including the control room envelope (CRE),

the technical support center, and the other areas of the CRB with outside air that is filtered (low and medium efficiency) to maintain a suitable environment for personnel and equipment. The CRVS is designed to maintain a positive pressure inside the CRB with respect to adjacent spaces. Section 9.4.1, Control Room Area Ventilation System, contains additional details.

If a high radiation indication is received from an outside air intake radiation monitor, the supply air is routed through the CRVS filter unit, which provides HEPA and charcoal filtration. The CRVS is designed to maintain operator doses in the MCR and technical support center within PDC 19 limits.

If power is not available, or if a high radiation indication is received from the radiation monitors in the CRE supply duct, the CRE isolation dampers close and the control room habitability system (CRHS) is initiated.

3.3.6 Control Room Habitability System The CRHS uses a set of compressed air storage bottles to supply the CRE with breathing air in the event of an emergency. Upon receiving an initiation signal, the CRHS supplies the CRE with clean air and maintains the CRE at a positive pressure with respect to adjacent areas. Section 6.4, Control Room Habitability, contains additional details.

The fixed area radiation monitors (ARMs) are placed in selected general plant locations. They provide local and MCR indication of gamma radiation at each location and provide an alarm function both locally and in the MCR when predetermined thresholds are exceeded.

The ARMs located under the bioshield for each NPM provide normal and post-accident indication of containment gamma radiation within the bioshield envelope during normal and accident conditions. The monitors detect fuel cladding breach under potential core damaging accident conditions. Section 9.3.2, Process Sampling System, discusses the use of ARMs.

The ARMs located adjacent to the CVCS reactor coolant filters provide indication of radioactive material buildup to allow the operator to remove them from service for maintenance before reaching predetermined thresholds for radiation. Area radiation monitoring design features, quality group, seismic requirements, and functions are described below. The CVCS design features, functions, and flow paths are described in Section 9.3.4.

The ARMs located in the spent fuel pool area provide the same functions as the general plant location monitors, and in addition monitor the fuel storage and handling areas. Additionally, a local ARM is mounted on the refueling bridge with local and MCR alarm function that monitors refueling activities.

The fixed continuous air monitors (CAMs) are placed in selected general plant locations. They provide local and MCR indication of airborne radioactivity within the plant environs at each location and provide an alarm function both locally and in the MCR when predetermined thresholds are exceeded.

The CAM for the GRWS provides an additional function: detection of GRWS process gas leakage. The GRWS continuous airborne radiation monitor function is described in Section 11.3, Gaseous Waste Management System.

3.4.1 Design Bases The area and airborne radiological monitoring equipment is designed to meet the following design basis requirements:

  • provide monitoring of area and airborne radiation levels in fuel storage and handling areas, and radioactive waste management systems to detect excessive radiation levels (GDC 63)
  • provide monitoring of plant area and airborne radiation levels such that worker dose can be maintained ALARA conforming to 10 CFR 20.1101(b)
  • provide monitoring of airborne radiation levels such that area dose rate can be monitored, in part conforming to 10 CFR 20.1203 cale US460 SDAA 12.3-17 Revision 0
  • provide monitoring of plant area and airborne radiation levels such that contaminated system leaks can be detected and addressed in a timely manner, in part conforming to 10 CFR 20.1406
  • provide monitoring of plant area and airborne radiation levels such that effective surveys of these parameters can be maintained, conforming to 10 CFR 20.1501
  • provide monitoring of plant area and airborne radiation levels for a broad range of routine and accident conditions, conforming to 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xxvii)
  • provide radiation monitoring in storage and associated handling areas when fuel is present to detect excessive radiation levels and to initiate appropriate safety actions, conforming to 10 CFR 50.68(b)(6).

3.4.2 Fixed Area Radiation Monitoring Instrumentation The fixed ARMs and associated instrument and controls platforms provide indication and archiving function to the MCR, furnishing information that can supplement radiological surveys, meet reporting requirements, and inform workers of radiological conditions before accessing monitored areas, thus providing the capability for plant staff to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1501.

The ARMs provide both indication and alarm functions to the local plant area, the MCR, and, for selected areas, the waste management control room. The indication ensures operator and worker awareness of changing radiological conditions that could indicate system leakage or component malfunction, and provides a warning to plant personnel before entry into the affected areas. Where appropriate, local visual alarms are provided outside of the monitored area to ensure worker awareness before entry into the affected area.

The above design features conform to the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1101(b),

10 CFR 20.1201, 10 CFR 20.1406, and 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xxvii).

For the ARMs in general plant locations, alarm setpoints are established to alert plant personnel when radioactivity in a specific location reaches levels that have been determined to be abnormal. The alarm setpoints are adjusted to values that are low enough for the minimum detectable activity anticipated and high enough not to give false alarms. Alarms are designed such that they do not reset without operator action. The radiation monitor remains operable when the alarm setpoint is exceeded.

ensure personnel working in the vicinity are able to determine easily the status of an ARM channel when in the vicinity of the local indication devices.

Fixed ARM placement conforms to the criteria for selection and placement of the area radiation monitoring instrumentation contained within ANSI/ANS-HPSSC-6.8.1-1981, "Location and Design Criteria for Area Radiation Monitoring Systems for Light Water Nuclear Reactors" (Reference 12.3-4). Area radiation detectors are located in those areas that are normally accessible and require entry, exit, or both to monitor for purpose of occupational radiation protection. To the extent practicable, detectors are located to best measure the representative exposure rates within a given area or specified location.

The following criteria are considered for detector placement.

  • Areas that are normally accessible and where changes in normal plant operating conditions can cause significant increases in exposure rates above those expected for the areas.
  • Areas that are normally or occasionally accessible and where significant increases in exposure rates might occur because of operational transients or maintenance activities.
  • Areas where shielding of the detector by equipment or structural materials are avoided to ensure correct monitor response to increases in exposure rates within a specific area
  • Environmental conditions under which the monitor operates consider the range of temperature, pressure and humidity of areas where the detector and electronics are located.
  • The electronic controls for the monitors are placed in the lowest dose area practicable to provide maintenance access in an unobstructed area.

The fixed ARM indicating ranges consider the design maximum dose rate of the radiation zone in which they are located and the maximum dose rate for anticipated operational occurrence and accident conditions. Multiple-range devices are used for applications where a single monitoring range is not sufficient to envelope the entire anticipated indication requirement. The range of the radiation monitor is chosen so that the upper end of the scale is high enough to ensure on-scale reading for exposure rates far greater (approximately two decades) than the expected peak exposure rate, and the low end is at the lower end of the expected exposure rate range but provides an on-scale value for the range of the instrumentation selected.

The ARMs employ a simple and robust design to minimize routine maintenance.

The radiation monitors allow for periodic and corrective maintenance during normal operation, accident conditions, and outages. The fixed ARM calibration methods are performed on an annual basis or in alignment with the manufacturer's recommendations. Each area radiation monitor may have a check source that is used to provide operability checks.

Selected ARMs support accident condition response and are PAM system variables, as described in Table 12.3-8 and Table 7.1-7. The fixed ARMs used for PAM have ranges that consider the maximum calculated accident levels and are designed to operate effectively under the environmental conditions caused by an accident. These monitors conform to the guidance of RG 1.97.

The ARMs located under the bioshield for each NPM detect fuel damage under accident conditions, and are considered PAM system B, C, and F variables.

Monitors are located at the top of each NPM beneath the bioshield. The radiation monitors under the bioshield are environmentally qualified to survive an accident and perform their design functions. The instruments are designed to respond to gamma radiation over the energy range of at least 60 keV to 3 MeV, with a dose rate response accuracy within a factor of two over the entire range. These monitors also meet the applicable requirements of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standard 497-2016 "Criteria for Accident Monitoring Instrumentation for Nuclear Power Generating Stations" (Reference 12.3-7). By the use of independent vendors using software that is independent, the design configuration meets the requirements of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standard 497-2016, Section 6.2, Common Cause Failure.

Fixed area radiation monitoring data are capable of being supplied to the NRC Operations Center through the connection to emergency response system via a secure direct electronic data link in the event of an emergency. The Connection to emergency response systems is discussed in Section 7.2.13.

Electrical power to the ARMs is provided by the following systems.

  • Fixed ARMs that are classified as a Type B PAM variable receive power from the augmented DC power system (EDAS).
  • Fixed ARMs that are classified as a Type C PAM variable receive power from the (EDAS) DC power system.
  • Fixed ARMs that are classified as a Type E PAM variable receive power from the normal DC power system (EDNS).
  • Fixed ARMs that are not used for PAM variables receive power from the EDNS.

The methodology for inspections, tests, analyses, and acceptance criteria associated with the fixed area radiation monitors are described in Section 14.3.

Table 12.3-10 provides information about the ARMs used including location and design features such as the type of radiation monitored and the associated principle isotope(s), instrument ranges, and the identification of monitors that serve a PAM function.

The CAMs provide both indication and alarm functions to the local plant area, the MCR, and, for selected areas, the waste management control room. These functions ensures operator and worker awareness of changing radiological conditions that could indicate system leakage or component malfunction, and provides a warning to plant personnel before entry into the affected areas. Where appropriate, local visual alarms are provided outside of the monitored area to ensure worker awareness before entry into the affected area.

The above design features conform to the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1101(b),

The CAMs used to fulfill PAM system functions conform to the guidance of RG 1.97.

Fixed CAM data are capable of being supplied to the NRC Operations Center through the connection to emergency response system via a secure direct electronic data link in the event of an emergency. Section 7.2 discusses the connection to emergency response system.

Alarm setpoints are established to alert plant personnel when airborne radioactivity in a specific location reaches levels that have been determined to be abnormal. The alarm setpoints are adjusted to values that are low enough for the minimum detectable activity anticipated and high enough not to give false alarms.

Alarms are designed such that they do not reset without operator action. The radiation monitor remains operable when the alarm setpoint is exceeded.

Meters, alarm indicators, and audible devices are designed so plant personnel can quickly determine the status of each radiation channel. These functions ensure personnel working in the vicinity are able to determine easily the status of fixed CAMs when in the vicinity of the local indication devices.

Radioactive Substances from the Stacks and Ducts of Nuclear Facilities" (Reference 12.3-8) and RG 8.25. The following criteria are considered for monitor placement:

  • Areas that are normally accessible and where changes in normal plant operating conditions can cause significant increases in airborne radioactivity above those expected for the areas.
  • Areas that are normally or occasionally accessible and where significant increases in airborne radioactivity might occur because of operational transients or maintenance activities.
  • Optimal location to measure the increase in airborne radioactivity within a specific area, including leak detection functions for systems that convey process gases that contain radionuclides and hydrogen.
  • Provide maintenance access in an unobstructed area. The electronic controls for the monitors are placed in the lowest dose area practicable.
  • Proximity of the airflow path that is as close as practical to potential release points.

The range of the fixed CAMs is chosen so that the upper end of the scale is high enough to ensure on-scale reading for exposure rates far greater (approximately two decades) than the expected peak exposure rate, and the low end is at the lower end of the expected exposure rate range but provide an on-scale value for the range of the instrumentation selected.

The fixed CAM calibration methods and frequency are in accordance with manufacturer recommendations and consider the rate at which instrument components age or become damaged. The calibrations are performed in a manner consistent with ALARA principles and follow the guidance of EPRI report TR-102644 Revision 1, "Calibration of Radiation Monitors at Nuclear Power Plants" (Reference 12.3-5). Recalibrations are performed on the detectors after maintenance or replacement of components that affect calibration. Radiation detectors used to satisfy PAM requirements are provided a means of calibration and testing the operability of each instrument channel during plant operation.

Functional testing of the fixed CAMs is performed to verify the operability of the channel, including alarm functions in accordance with manufacturer's requirements and using the guidance of EPRI report TR-104862, Revision 2, "Area and Process Radiation Monitoring System Guide" (Reference 12.3-6).

The dose assessment information in this section includes the estimated radiation exposures to plant personnel performing work activities involving normal operations, maintenance, inspections, refueling activities, and waste handling, using the methodology presented in Regulatory Guide 8.19 to demonstrate the facility design complies with 10 CFR 20. The dose assessment process during the design of the plant and the program for keeping doses as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) help maintain occupational radiation exposures ALARA. To estimate the occupational radiation exposures (OREs) for the facility, various work activities and durations are compiled along with the expected significant (>0.1 mrem/hr) radiation fields that are encountered. 4.1 Occupational Radiation Exposure Regulatory Guide 8.19 methodology is used to determine the OREs to plant personnel. Section 12.3 describes radiation protection design features and Section 12.5 explains elements of the operational radiation protection program. Both the program and design maintain operator occupational radiation exposure ALARA. Section 12.2 provides the airborne concentration in various parts of the facility. The calculated occupational exposure estimates are developed to reflect the expected dose rates in a facility during its operation. In the absence of operational dose information, the sources in Section 12.2 are used to inform some of the assumed dose rates used for occupational exposures. The following activity categories are used to calculate the estimated annual ORE estimates:

  • reactor operations and surveillances
  • routine maintenance
  • inservice inspection
  • special maintenance
  • waste processing
  • refueling activities Table 12.4-1 summarizes the total estimated annual occupational personnel doses.

Major elements contributing to lower occupational doses include low plant radiation fields due to crud reduction efforts and leak minimization, favorable plant arrangement and equipment layout, and operational practices and procedures that minimize time spent in radiation fields. The paragraphs below detail each work activity associated with annual ORE. cale US460 SDAA 12.4-1 Revision 0

During plant operations, systems and components are monitored for performance and operating condition. Some examples of the specific activities performed by operators include:

  • inspection and performance tests of plant components and systems
  • checks of unidentified leaks
  • operation of manual valves
  • reading of instruments
  • health physics patrols and surveys
  • security sweeps or patrols
  • calibration of electrical and mechanical equipment
  • chemistry sampling and analysis Table 12.4-2 provides estimated values of the collective doses for reactor operations and surveillances.

4.1.2 Routine Inspection and Maintenance During plant operations, routine inspection and maintenance activities include various inspections, repairs, and replacements of pumps, valves, heat exchangers, and instrumentation within the Reactor Building and the hot machine shop. Table 12.4-3 provides occupational dose estimates from routine inspection and maintenance. 4.1.3 Inservice Inspection Periodic inservice inspections are required for safety-related equipment by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section XI. These components include the reactor pressure vessel, containment vessel, core support, and other internal components. These inspections are typically performed during refueling outages. Table 12.4-4 provides occupational dose estimates from inservice inspection (ISI) activities. 4.1.4 Special Maintenance Special maintenance consists of activities that go beyond routine scheduled maintenance, including the modification of equipment to upgrade the NuScale Power Module (NPM) and repairs to failed components. The maintenance activities included in this evaluation are associated with the upper section of the NPM while staged in the dry dock during refueling outages. Maintenance activities that do not require a shutdown are considered to be routine maintenance activities. Some special maintenance activities for each NPM are assumed to cale US460 SDAA 12.4-2 Revision 0

4.1.5 Waste Processing The waste processing occupational dose estimate includes activities involving the processing of liquid, solid, and gaseous radioactive wastes and other activities in the Radioactive Waste Building, including routine inspections and maintenance and operations and surveillance activities. The doses are estimated based on identified activities that are grouped into three categories: waste management, waste maintenance, and other activities. Waste management activities include the collection, processing, storing, and releasing of radioactive waste. Waste maintenance activities include system equipment inspections and repair, component flushing, and component replacement. Other activities are support activities within the Radioactive Waste Building, including chemistry sampling, instrument calibrations, health physics surveillances, and security patrols. Table 12.4-6 lists the estimated occupational doses from waste processing. 4.1.6 Refueling Activities, Including Dry Dock Outage Activities When an NPM is shut down for refueling, other NPMs continue operation. Therefore, dose contributions from operating NPMs are included with the dose received from outage activities, as appropriate. In addition, station personnel could be tasked with working on multiple NPM refueling outages within the same year. The dose assessment for refueling activities includes the following major activities:

  • preparing the NPM for movement
  • disconnecting and moving the NPM to the containment flange tool
  • disassembling the NPM and dry dock activities

Chapter 15 defines post-accident operator actions, and there are no credited post-accident actions outside the main control room. Section 15.0.3 provides operator dose assessments for the main control room and the technical support center. 4.1.9 Construction Activities For the construction of an additional NuScale plant adjacent to an existing NuScale plant, the estimated annual radiation exposure to a construction worker is estimated based upon a construction staffing plan over the estimated construction period. The annual dose for a construction worker is estimated to be 1.64 mrem/year. L Item 12.4-1: An applicant that references the NuScale Power Plant US460 standard design will estimate doses to construction personnel from a co-located existing operating nuclear power plant that is not a NuScale Power Plant. 4.2 Radiation Exposure at the Restricted Area Boundary The direct radiation to the restricted area boundary from on-site sources, such as buildings, is negligible. cale US460 SDAA 12.4-4 Revision 0

The table below provides the NuScale responses to each of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission readiness assessment observations on draft Chapter 12, Radiation Protection of the Standard Design Approval Application. Section Observation Response 12.4 Table 12.4-7. The dose estimates for refueling activities were already low Table 12.4-7 states that the dose for disassembly, lower in the DCA and the doses got even lower in the SDAA, and it is not clear containment work, refuel work, and reassembly are all 0.0 what caused the significant decrease in dose. It states that the dose for man-rem and that there is no exposure time for these disassembly, lower containment work, refuel work, and reassembly are all activities. The module disassembly and reassembly steps are 0.0 man-rem and that there is no exposure time for these activities. Staff now planned to be entirely remote. It is assumed that actual understands that some activities can be performed remotely, but all of refueling of the core is performed entirely remotely via cranes, these items resulted in some dose in the DCA. It is unclear if there are cameras, and the fuel handling machine. any design changes resulting in lower expected doses during refueling activities. In addition, it is unclear how there can be no dose for some of The design for disassembly of the NPM, lower containment these activities. For example, how can work be performed on the lower work, refueling and reassembly all support remote operations containment without receiving any expected dose? from the Module Maintenance Center. For the Design Certification Application, the designated location for the remote work was local to the refueling area. The US460 standard plant design now has an enclosed observation area from which the activities in question will be remotely performed in a controlled environment. For this occupational radiation exposure estimate, it is assumed the activities performed from this location will not result in measurable dose to the operating crew. The lower containment vessel remains submerged in the ultimate heat sink and is therefore, not a source of radiation exposure to workers. Inspections and maintenance of this component will be performed remotely with the assistance of cameras.}}
