3.0 MOV Program ASME OM 2012 included Mandatory Appendix III, Preservice and Inservice Testing of Active Electric Motor Operated Valve Assemblies in Light Water Reactor Power Plants. This section descdbes implementation of Appendix III at Penni.

This section also describes requirements ofMOVs determined to be Passive.

An Appendix III implementation review was conducted by Kalsi Engineering and reviewed by Fe1mi personnel (DSN: IST Appendix III Reviews/ Edison File Number Pl-19243). Recommendations were addressed during Appendix III program development.

1ST Program Plan Part 4 Page9

3.1 Active vs. Passive The definition for active and passive valves from ISTA-2000 is as follows:

valves, active: valves that are required to change obturator position to accomplish a specific function in shutting down a reactor to the safe shutdown condition, maintaining the safe shutdown condition, or mitigating the consequences of an accident.

valves, passive: valves that maintain obtw:ator position and are not required to change obturator position to accomplish the required function(s) in shutting down a reactor to the safe shutdown condition, maintaining the safe shutdown condition, or mitigating the consequences of an accident.

Active MOVs are addressed per Mandatory Appendix III. Passive MOVs are addressed per ISTC requirements.

3.2 Testing Requirements Passive MOVs: passive MOVs with remote indication require remote position indication (RPI) testing at least once every two years in accordance with ISTC-3700. They also require obturator verification in accordance with 10CFR50.55a(b)(3)(xi). They do not require periodic exercising (Table ISTC-3500-1).

Leakage Testing: leakage testing for active and passive MOVs is governed by the valve category as defined in ISTC-1300 and Table ISTC-3500-1.

Exercising: Appendix III MOV s are exercised at least once per refueling cycle with the maximum time between exercises of24 months. Those high safety significance (HSSC) MOVs that can be stroked during plant operation are exercised quarterly.

Stroke time testing: MOV stroke time testing is not required by Appendix III. However, in accordance with 10CFR50.55a(b)(3)(ii)(D), the licensee must verify that the stroke time ofMOVs specified in plant technical specifications satisfy the assumptions in the plant's safety analysis. In these cases, stroke timing is performed at the MOV Exercising frequency.

Diagnostic Testing: In accordance with Appendix III, each active MOV must have a current design basis verification test (III-3100), a current preservice test (III-3200) and a periodic inservice test (III-3300).

These tests are identified in accordance with MOV Program requirements and the results are archived in the appropriate Work Order(s).

Remote Position Indication (RPI) and Obturator Verification (OV): Passive MOVs with remote position indicators require verification that valve operation is accurately indicated at least once every two years, and this local operation shall be supplemented by other indications as practicable to verify obturator position (ISTC-3700). Remote position indication and OV is required fo1* all Appendix III MOVs. RPI and OV are conducted during inservice testing and during maintenance or modification activities that require performance of the inservice test (III-3300(e)). OV is not required to be concurrent with RPI (ISTC-3700) but is conducted at a frequency that provides reasonable assurance of valve operation. The IST Valve Scope Table lists the procedure(s) and frequency for RPI and OV.

IST Program Plan Part 4 Page 10

3.2.1 Design basis verification testing (DBVT): Design basis verification testing (DBVT) was performed for each MOV to meet Generic Letter 89-10 / Generic 96-05 test requirements where the testing was practicable and would provide meaningful results. Where DBVT was not practicable/meaningful, results of testing from other MO Vs (grouping) or testing results from industry test programs (JOG PV, EPRI PPM, special individual valve analyses) were justified and applied to verify design-basis capability using results from preservice (static) diagnostic tests. In addition, testing perfonned at conditions other than design basis conditions were analyzed and the results used to justify design-basis capability.

III -3100 allows the use of design basis verification tests that were conducted prior to implementation of Appendix III to be used as long as they met the requirements of Appendix III. GL 96-05 tests were used for all MOVs except for four, which were added to the IST Program for the 4th Interval. These will be tested as described in VRR-011.

Plant processes address review of MOV changes, MOV modifications or system modifications that would invalidate the DBVT. The DBVT is repeated if a change would invalidate the DBVT unless the test would not be practicable or provide meaningful results. In this case, and when the test is conducted at conditions other than design-basis conditions, an analysis is performed to justify the use of the alternate technique to verify MOV design-basis capability.

3.2.2 Preservice Testing: Static diagnostic tests were conducted in conjunction with a DBVT for each Appendix III MOV for which a DBVT was performed under GL 89-10. For those cases that a DBVT was not practicable or would not provide meaningful results, a diagnostic test was conducted under conditions like those expected during subsequent diagnostic tests. The preservice test is considered the most recent test prior to implementation of Appendix III. In cases where MOV changes could invalidate the DBVT and it is practicable and meaningful to perform it, the preservice test is conducted in conjunction with the DBVT. Otherwise the preservice test is considered the diagnostic test perfonned to confinn MOV design-basis capability.

3.2.3 Inservice Testing: Periodic Inservice testing is conducted in accordance with the Preventive Maintenance (PM) Program. Each Appendix III MOV has a PM assigned to it that contains technical requirements for the test and specifies the test interval. Inservice testing is also performed following activities that could impact inservice test criteria but will not impact DBVT criteria.

Test intervals: Fermi adopted the Joint Owners Group MOV Periodic Verification Program (JOG PV).

The JOG PV Program established maximum periodic test intervals based on valve degradation only. The maximum periodic test intervals were based on risk insights, margin and valve category. The following table summarizes the maximum test interval established by the JOG PV Program:

Risk Rank Mantin Low (<5%) Medium (5 to <l 0%) High (>10%)

High 2 years 4 years 6 years Medium 4 years 8 years 10 years Low 6 years 10 years 10 years 1ST Program Plan Part 4 Page 11

In accordance with the JOG PV Program, each MOV has been categorized as Category A (valve not susceptible to degradation) or B (valve not susceptible to degradation extended by analysis or engineering judgment), Those valves that are outside the scope of the JOG PV Program (Category D) were evaluated separately to establish the maximum test frequency, DSN: Pl-17745, MOV JOG Classification summarizes the JOG Classification for each GL 96-05 MOV and the basis for the maximum test intervals for Category D MOVs.

The maximum test intervals for Category A MOV s are established using risk and the "High" margin column in the above table. The maximum test intervals for Category B MOVs are established using all columns in the table, Risk ranking is established using the BWR Owner's Group methodology for risk ranking (RefNEDC-32264-A), grouping each MOV as High, Medium or Low risk. Margin is based on the limiting thrust margin for rising stem valves and limiting torque margin for quarter turn valves. Since Appendix III employs only two risk ranking levels, HSSC (high safety significance) and LSSC (low safety significance), any valves that are determined to have Medium risk per the risk ranking methodology are considered HSSC at Fermi. Updates to risk ranking (reference TE-ANL-10-035) are finalized following review by a Plant Expe1t Panel. Maximum inservice test intervals and exercising frequency are then adjusted as necessary based on any risk ranking changes.

In addition to the maximum test intervals established per the JOG PV Program, degradation of the actuator and valve/ actuator interface are considered in establishing the test interval. Functional margin is calculated for each MOV as the difference between the available actuator output and valve operating requirements. Prior to retuming the MOV to service following testing, a review is conducted by qualified individuals to ensure functional margin is positive and that there are no anomalous conditions present that could impact valve functionality. If these conditions are not met, corrective actions are identified and addressed as appropriate prior to returning the MOV to service. A follow-up test review is conducted by qualified individuals to determine the test interval based on consideration of functional margin, performance degradation and anomalous behavior or adverse trends. The test interval is adjusted if this review indicates test interval modification is necessary.

As-found testing and as-left testing is perfonned for each periodic inservice test and typically for maintenance activities conducted within the inservice test interval that requires diagnostic testing to be performed. Justification is provided in the testing evaluation if as-found testing is not perfo1med. If as-found testing is not performed, the test interval is set at two cycles or three years for HSSC MOVs (whichever is longer) or three cycles or five years for LSSC MOVs (whichever is longer) unless sufficient data is available to justify a longer test interval.

All Appendix III MOV Inservice Testing is conducted and documented using plant Work Orders.

Pertinent test infonnation and documentation of data analysis and evaluation is archived with the Work Order.
