Pg. 1 of 16 ATTACHMENT 2 RESPONSES TO DSER OPEN ITEMS ,

1. 3.4.1 The applicant must show that all safety-related equipment in the control building is protected against flooding as a result of a moderate energy line crack within the control building.

(DSER Pages 3-10; 3-29).

Response

As stated in the response to FSAR Question 210.54 (MEB), an analysis of flooding resulting from a moderate energy line crack and its effect on safety related equipment will be provided by the end of January 1985. The analysis will be performed using the methodology described in FSAR Section 3.6.

2. 3.5.1.1 Incomplete evaluations of missiles - did not include 3.5.1.2 valve bonnets, thermowells, nuts, bolts, studs, valve stems, fan failures, and gravitational missiles.

(DSER Pages 3-13 to 3-17) .

Response

a. Justification for not viewing components such as valve bonnets, thermowells, nuts, bolts, studs, and valve stems as possible missiles will be provided by the end of December 1983 in the response to FSAR Question 410.15.
b. Gravitational missiles are addressed in the attached proposed response to FSAR Question 410.16 (Enclosure 1).

This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

c. The effects of missiles from rotating equipment, including fans, en safety related equipment both inside and outside of containment will be evaluated, and the results provided by the end of December 1983.
3. 3.6.1 HELB analysis is not complete; has not provided the results of a compartmental flooding analysis and detailed information on the environmental effects of a HELB and MELB. (DSER Pages 3-28; 3-29).

Response

Updated and revised tables and figures for the pipe whip and jet impingement analysis have been developed and will be submitted by the end of December 1983. Completion of the high energy pipe break analyses is scheduled for completion by the end of January 1985 (see related Questions 410.3, 210.45, and 210.46).

Pg. 2 of 16 Moderate energy line cracks are addressed in the response to Item 1. Examples of sd3 compartment pressure analyses for high energy line breaks outside containment (assumptions, methods, and results) are provided in FSAR Appendix 3B.

4. 4.6 Verify by test that the scram accumulators will maintain the capability to scram for 20 minutes after loss of both CRD pumps i and that the scram function is maintained in the event of slowly decaying air pressure in the scram discharge inlet and outlet valves. (DSER Pages 4-50; 4-51; 4-53)

Response

a. Testing of the scram accumulators will be specified in the plant Technical Specifications (STS Section 3/4.1.3.3). In addition, a pre-operational test will be
 !                                   conducted implementing the technical specification requirements,
b. Slowly decaying air pressure in the scram discharge inlet and outlet valves could result in the discharge of water to the scram discharge volume. The scram discharge volume is monitored for accumulated water, and the reactor will scram before the volume is reduced to a point that could interfere with a scram. See FSAR Section 4.6.1.1.2.4.2.5.
5. 5.2.5 The applicant must:

a) provide assurance that the use of the containment floor drain sump will provide an accuracy of leak rate measurement of I gpm or better and the capability to detect a leakage

,                                  rate of I gpm in less than one hour.

b) show how leakage from the primary system into the HPCS, LPCS, RCIC (both water and steam lines), and RHR systems is detected when these systems are supposedly isolated from the primary system. , i c) specify the availability of the leakage detection methods and limiting conditions for operation based upon this availability in order to meet the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.45, Position C.9. I d) revise the FSAR to include a discussion of the sensars (tempera- ture, pressure, and radioactivity - both gaseous and particulate within containment but outside of the i drywell) and verify that all systems and measurements which l are part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary leakage detection system are accounted for. (DSER Pages 5-14, 5-17, 5-19, 5-20 to 5-22). i

Pg. 3 of 16

Response

l l'

a. The leak detection containment floor drain sump level transmitters have a range of 0 to 36 inches and an accuracy of 0.25 percent, or 0.09 inches. For an inflow of I gpm, the sump level increases at approximately 0.1. inches per minute. The rate converter has a range of 0 to 10 gpm with a total channel accuracy of 4 percent.

Therefore, the design requirement to detect 1 gpm in I hour is readily met. This information will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment,

b. As discussed in FSAR Section 5.2.5, various measurements are available to detect leakage of primary coolant into the HPCS, LPCS, RCIC, and RHR systems,
c. Limiting Conditions for Operation of the leak detection system will be contained in the plant Technical Specifications (STS Section 3/4.4.3).
d. The response to this request is provided in revised FSAR Section 5.2.5.1.2 (Enclosure 2). This information will be incorporated into FSAR in a future amendment.
6. 6.7 Specify the maximum allowable leakage rate and the differential pressure across the MSIVs. (DSER Pages 6-73, 6-74).

Response

a. Maximum allowable leakage rate across the main steam isolation valves (MSIV) will be specified in the plant Technical Specification (STS Section 3/4 6.1).

The MSIV leakage rate limit will be established based on l the amount of sealing air supplied by the MS-PLCS. The i sealing system air compressor capacity will be pro-rated by valve diameter for each valve sealed by the PVLCS and the MS-PLCS such that the total leakage from all valves x including ADS accumulator makeup requirements is less than ! the compressor capacity. Consideration will be given to l the following: i

1. The containment and drywell are not over pressurized by inleakage of air when the PVLCS

, and MS-PLCS are in operation.

2. Offsite accident doses do not exceed 10CFR100 criteria and doses within the main control room do not exceed GDC 19 criteria when including the contribution from MSIV leakage (at the established limiting rate) for 20 minutes i post-accident (i.e., prior to MS-PLCS initiation).

e-Pg. 4 of 16 1

3. This is consistent with LRG-II position I-AEB.
b. The differential pressure maintained between the reactor vessel and the pressurized portion of the main steam line by the main steam positive leakage control system (MS-PLCS) is 8.5 psi. This is shown in revised FSAR Section 6.7.2.2 (Enclosure 3). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.
7. 9.1.1 The applicant must provide assurance that k gg in excess of
;          0.98 will not be attained in the new fuel sIorage racks (under optimum moderation). The nature of the administrative controls and the times and conditions under which the new fuel covers will be removed should be addressed.     (DSER Page 9-6).

Response

A description of the new fuel storage vault covers is provided in revised FSAR Sections 9.1.1.2 and 9.1.1.3.1 (Enclosure 4). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

8. 9.1.2 The applicant has not provided a criticality analysis to confirm the criticality limits to be attained in the spent fuel storage facility. (DSER Pages 9-10, 9-11).

Response

As stated in the current response to FSAR Question 410.6, the criticality analysis for the fuel building spent fuel storage racks will be provided by the end of December 1983. This analysis will verify that k gg will be 0.95 under all normal and abnormal storage conditions. i 9. 9.1.3 The applicant should: i a) provide the number of fuel bundles and frequency assumed for " normal" refueling so that the heat load calculations for the spent fuel pool may be verified. b) show that the spent fuel stored in the dryer storage pool can be cooled in the event of a DBA or loss of offsite power combir.ed with the worst single active failure. c) show the interconnection of the RHR system with the fuel pool cooling system, d) show that the syphon breaker design precludes failure so as to cause a reduction in the level of the spent fuel pool in the fuel building below 10 feet above the top of the fuel. ! (DSER Pages 9-16 to 9-18), i e) [See Draft SER Page 9-18 relative to why syphon breakers ! are not required for the dryer storage pool.] L a l I.

Pg. 5 of 16

Response

a. Assumptions used for the heat load calculations for the fuel building spent fuel pool are provided in revised FSAR Section 9.1.3.1.1 (Enclosure 5). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.
b. The plant Technical Specifications will prohibit storage of spent fuel in the containment pool during normal plant operation. See revised response to FSAR Question 410.30 (Enclosure 6). FSAR Sections 9.1.3.2.1 and 9.1.3.3 describe the method of cooling the containment fuel pool.

This revised response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

c. FSAR Section 9.1.3.2.1 describes the interconnection between the RHR system and the fuel pool cooling system.

This interconnection is shown on FSAR Figures 9.1-23a and i 5.4-12. Its function as a cooling source is described in FSAR Section 9.1.3.3.

d. Antisiphoning devices are provided on the fuel building and containment spent fuel pool piping to ensure that, in the event of a pipe break, the pool water is not siphoned to a level less than 10 feet above the top of the fuel. ,

The minimum required water shielding depth is 8 ft.- 6 in. above the top of the fuel. t Two types of siphon breakers are utilized:

i. A in. diameter hole is drilled in the highest portion of the pipe on those pipes that do not extend to the bottom of the pools.

1

11. A piece of in. pipe extending above the minimum required water level is used on pipes that extend to the bottom of the pools. This piece of pipe is tapped to accept a pipe plug, which is inserted only when it is desired to draw down or empty a pool for maintenance purposes.

The above-described siphon breakers are passive devices that admit air to the piping system to stop siphon-induced flow. There is no active failure which would preclude to operation of these devices. This information will be invarporated into the FSAR in a future amendment,

e. The dryer storage pool is provided with siphon breakers as shown in Figure 9.1-23a.

Pg. 6 of 16 10, 9.1.4 The applicant should: a) show that damage to the fuel building bridge crane is sufficiently limited in the event of an SSE so that either the crane retains its integrity or that any part of the crane becoming dislodged would not result in damage to the spent fuel, the spe.,t fuel pool, or the spent fuel cooling system. b) discuss what provisions are made for cooling the maximum number of spent fuel bundles in the fuel transfer tube during normal transfer operations and in the event fuel bundles become lodged in the tube. The possibility of a dry tube should also be discussed.

                              -c) provide and analysis to show that the maximum kinetic energy resulting from a fall of any object which weighs less than a fuel bundle and its handling tool, when over spent fuel in either containment or the fuel building storage-facilities will not exceed that obtained in the fall of a fuel bundle and its handling tool (Fuel Handling Accident).

(DSEE Pages 9-24, 9-26, 9-27).

Response

a. Refer to FSAR Sections 9.1.4.2.2.2 and 9.1.4.3. The fuel building bridge crane is equipped with an anti-tipping device (seismic restraint) to prevent the bridge and trolley from leaving the rails during a seismic event.

3 Following installation of the high density spent fuel racks, mechanical blocks attached to the bridge rails will prevent the crane from travelling over or close to the spent fuel pool. Therefore, the dislodging of any major part of the crane will not result in an impact on stored fuel or the spent fuel pool. In addition, within the limits of travel of the crane, there are no spent fuel cooling system equipment or piping which could be impacted by dislodged parts of the crane. ! b. The response to this request is provided in revised FSAR Section 9.1.4.2.3.11 (Enclosure 7). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

c. The response to this request is provided in revised FSAR Section 9.1.4.3 (Enclosure 8). This information will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

a

11. 9.1.5 The Staff will require that the applicant implement the guidelines contained in NUREG-0612 before any operating license can be issued.
!                              The applicant should:

(DSER Pages 9-30, 9-32, 9-33) e) [See Draft SER Pages 9-32 and 9-33 relative to effects of polar crane load drop on the water level in the containment fuel storage pool)

Response

The schedule for submittal of the heavy loads analysis (NUREG-0612) is provided in an August 9, 1983 letter from J. E. Booker to D. G. Eisenhut (Enclosure 9).

a. The results of the spent fuel cask drop analysis are provided in the partial response to FSAR Question 410.8 (Enclosure 10). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment,
b. Spent fuel is not stored in the containment pool during normal operation, as noted in the response to Item 9(b).
c. As noted above, spent fuel is not stored in the containment pool during normal operation. The arrangement of the containment pools is such that deliberate operator positioning of both the bridge and trolley would be

! required to transport heavy loads over spent fuel stored ! in the containment pool. Administrative controls will be implemented to preclude such movement of the polar crane over spent fuel (see FSAR Section 9.1.4.3).

d. This item will be included in the study performed for NUREG-0612.
e. The response to this request is identical to Item 11(c) above.
12. 9.2.2 The applicant must show that:

a) the safety related portion of the RPCCW will not fail as the result of a HELB. b) the safety-related portion of the RPCCW is protected against internally generated missiles (FSAR Section 3.5.1 does not list the RPCCW as one of the systems which need to be protected against internally generated missiles.) (DSER l Page 9-41).

a) provide the results of an analysis which shows that the worst single failure of the radiation detection system will not allow entrance of radioactive material into the control room, b) clarify whether the recirculating charcoal filter or equi-valent (to be identified by the applicant) is used when the control room is isolated in the event of a chlorine release. 9.4.2 c) profide a detailed response to show compliance with the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.52, Positions C.2.a through C.2.f and C.2.k. d) discuss how the pressure drop across all critical components of each charcoal filtration train in the MCRAC system will be recorded. 9.4.2 e) justify use of the Associated Air Balance Council tests 9.4.3 in lieu of Section 6 of ANSI N510-1975. 9.4.4 (DSER Pages 9-94 to 9-96, 9-112, 9-113, 9-120, 9-134)

Response

a. Redundant radiation detectors are provided in each of the local and remote air intakes. The redundant detectors are powered frem independent power supplies (See Figure ,

9.4-la). Therefore, a single failure in the radiation

,                  detection system does not cause a loss of the safety function of the control building ventilation system. This conclusion has been verified in the Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA).
b. The use of the charcoal filtration unit in the event of a chlorine release, as recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.95, is not required (see FSAR Section 2.2.3 for a discussion of potential chlorine release accidents). However, recirculation of the control room air through the charcoal filters in the event of control roem isolation can be

b. There is no significance associated with'having two separate air intake lines to battery room IC. This room

{ I

Pg. 12 of 16 is located close to the ductwork main which makes two intakes a better ductwork arrangement. The other two battery rooms are located further away from the ductwork main. For these two rooms, a single takeoff with a split ' before entering the room is a better ductwork arrangement. 20, 9.4.1.4 The applicant should provide revised P& ids to show the condenser cooling water pumps and the associated piping arrangements. (DSER Page 9-103).

Response

The condenser cooling water pumps are shown on Figure 9.2-la, Zones 5-I, 7-I, 9-I, and 10-I.

Response

a. The radwaste ventilation system is shut down manually in the event of detection of high airborne radiation in the radwaste building. See revised FSAR Section 9.4.3.3.2, Item 2. (Enclosure 23). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

Analyses of the radiological consequences of limiting failures in radioactive gas and liquid waste systems are presented in FSAR Section 15.7. In these analyses, no credit has been taken for any operator action to shutdown or isolate ventilation systems. Therefore, failure of the operator to shut down the radwaste building ventilaticn system upon detection of high airborne radiation does not result in consequences worse than those already analyzed.

b. The single isolation damper in the radwaste building ventilation system exhaust duct is designed to fail in the closed position. However, if it were to fail in the open position, in conjunction with a high radiation signal, the radiological consequences would be bounded by those analyzed in FSAR Section 15.7. See the discussion under Item 22(a) above.
c. Compliance of the charcoal filtration system in the radwaste building ventilation system (RBVS) (and in the turbine building ventilation system (TBVS)) is addressed in FSAR Table 1.8-1 and in Table 9.4-6. Specific details r.re provided in revised Section 9.4.3.3 and 9.4.4.3 (Enclosure 24) .
d. The isolation dampers between the auxiliary building ventilation system (ABVS) and the standby gas treatment system (SGTS) are normally closed, and are opened in the event of an accident (See dampers IHVR*AOD18A and B, Figure 9.4-7a, Zone G-5). These dampers are designed to fail open. As shown in Figure 9.4-7a, these dampers are located in separate, parallel flow paths and are powered

d Pg. 14 of 16 from separate, redundant electric power supplies such that the failure of one damper does not prevent the establishment of the flow path from the APVS to the SGTS.

e. The equipment contained in the three safety-related pump rooms served by unit coolers in the ABVS is clarified in the attached revised FSAR Section 9.4.3.2.1.3 3 (Enclosure 25) . The area served by each unit cooler in the ABVS is shown schematically in Figure 9.4-7e. This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.
f. The response to this request is provided in revised FSAR Table 3.2-1, Item XXXI, (Enclosure 26) and Section 9.4.3.2.1.3 (Enclosure 27). This respense will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.
g. The information in FSAR Table 3.2.-1, Item XXXI, is correct as revised per item 22(f) above. FSAR Section
9.4.3 is revised accordingly (Enclosure 27). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

h. The only area of the auxiliary building not cooled in the event of a DBA and/or loss of offsite power or a high radiation signal is the CRD maintenance area. This area is intended for testing and maintenance of CRD mechanisms, and is not required for safe shutdown of the reactor or to mitigate the consequences of an accident. This area is normally cooled by non-safety-related unit cooler 1 HVR-UC14. See the revised FSAR Section 9.4.3.2.1.3 (Enclosure 27) and Table 9.4-4 (Enclosure 28). This

! response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future l amendment.

i. The auxiliary building system ductwork conveying exhaust air to the SGTS in the event of a high exhaust radiation j signal complies with the guidelines of applicable portions of position C.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.52 as described in revised Eection 9.4.3.3.1 (Enclosure 29). This response will be incorporated into the FSAR in a future amendment.

The material specifications for the racks are ASTM B108, s . alloy SG708-T61, and ASTM B211, alloy 6061-T651. The floor of the new fuel storage vault is sloped to a drain located at the low point. This drain removes any water that may be accidentally and unknowingly introduced into the vault. The drain is part of the fuel building drain system a aey s a ges e q a as system. INSERT A The radiation monitoring equipment for the new fuel storage area is described in Section 7.6.1.4. 9.1.1.3 Safety Evaluation 9.1.1.3.1 Criticality Control The calculations of keff are based upon the geometrical arrangements of the fuel array and subcriticality does not depend upon the presence of neutron absorbing materials. The arrangement of fuel assemblies in the fuel storage racks results in k eff below 0.95 in a dry condition or completely flooded with water which has a density of 1 g/cc. To meet the requirements of General Design Criterion 62, geometrically-safe configurations of fuel stored in the new

               ,-fuel array are employed to assure that keff does not exceed 0.95 if fuel is stored in the dry condition or if the abnormal condition of flooding (water with a density of 1 g/cc) occurs.       In the dry condition, k ef        is maintained 50.95 due to under-moderation.             Inthebloodedcondition, l

the geometry of the fuel storage array assures the k eff I remains sO.95 due to over-moderation. No limitation is placed on the size of the new fuel storage array from a criticality standpoint since all calculations are performed i on an infinite basis. l l REPIACE Administrctivc control; uill bc prcVidcd to prcclud; courcc3 WIDI of cptimur mcdcrction in th 7c. fucl ctercgc crca deiing 3 INSERT B Lhu ocucacnt of fucl.

A vent pipe with a fluid stop connected to the containment ventilatica system isclates the displaced air in the tube during filling from the reactor building atmosphere and confines the water surge to the pool water. - A hydraulic power unit is provided in each building to ._ actuate the cylinders attached to the upenders, the fill ~ valve, the flap valve, and the fuel building gate valve. In both buildings, the pool area in which the transfer system components are located is physically separated from the fuel storage area by a concrete wall which serves as a positive barrier to prevent fuel in the storage area from being uncovered in the event of loss of pool water through the transfer system. In addition, these walls are provided with gates to allow drainage of the transfer pool areas for maintenance and/or removal of the transfer tube and components. Control panels are provided in close proximity to each transfer pocl area and are connected for voice and interlock communication. Each panel has control buttons for actuating the upender, a button for initiating the transfer sequence to the other < building and a stop button. The transfer operation functions on an automatic basis with provision made for manual override. Automatic sequencing is - accomplished by use of an electronic controller located in the fuel building which utilizes sensors for confirming the . sbccessful completion of each step before initiating the next step. The completion of a transfer sequence is signaled at the control panels. INSERT  ; Interlocks assure the correct sequencing of the transfer system components and fuel handling equipment during automatic or manual override operation. Interlocks prevent the refueling platform frcm moving into the reactor building transfer area unless the gate valve (25) is closed and the upender (7) is in the vertical position and prevent upender movement if the platform is in the transfer area.

INSERT (Page 9.1-36) The Inclined Fuel Transfer control system is operated on a semi-automatic basis. Safety interlocks prevent opening the transfer tube bottom valve when the flap valve is open and vice versa to prevent drainage of the Reactor Building fuel transfer pool. The interlock control system has dual channel logic which provides a backup sensor for each required sensor which provides the redundancy necessary for the system to function safely. The failure of a channel to perform its intended function causes an alarm which identifies the failed channel. Emergency cooling is available in the unlikely event of the tilt tube becoming lodged in the transfer tube. The worst case scenario would be if the tilt tube, with the maximum heat source (two freshly discharged fuel assemblies), was lodged above the water exit valve with all valves closed and a loss of power and transfer tube leak occured. Thirty minutes is available before the water in the tilt tube boils down to active fuel level, The addition of cooling water i by manually opening the water inlet valve or by running a hose j through the vent pipes, would be started within thirty minutes. This additional cooling can maintain the fuel at a safe temperature indefinitely. l. I n

9.1.4.3 Safety Evaluation, Fuel Handling System safety- aspects (evaluation) of the fuel servicing equipment are discussed in- Secticn 9.1.4.2.3 and safety aspects of the refueling equipment are discussed throughout Section 9.1.4.2.7. A description of fuel transfer, including appropriate safety features, is provided in -1 Section 9.1.4.2.11. In additicn, the following summary safety evaluation of the fuel handling system is provided. The SFCT is designed so that during a seismic event, no part of the trolley system, including main trolley, auxiliary trolley, and auxiliary bridge, leaves its rails or becomes detached. The SFCT is not designed to be operable during or , after a seismic event. The spent fuel cask drop analysis de was currently being performed to verify that a cask drop does not result in unacceptable damages to the spent fuel storage """" ...,,,, facility or safety related equipment.f Octoilcd rccultc of LL 5 onelysis will ic providcd by ; inter c; cad; cat to the (.) Teddh The fuel handling accident involving a fully loaded (' spent fuel cask is addressed in Section 15.7.5. The fuel building bridge crane is not seismically designed but is provided with seismic restraints to prevent the trolley and bridge from leaving the rails during a seismic event. The REPC is designed and fabricated so that no component t becomes detached during a seismic event. The crane bridge arid trolley are designed and fabricated so that they do not ! leave their rails during a seismic event. The BBPC is not l ' designed to be operable during or after a seismic event. An analysis was perforned to determine the structural consequence of dropping the BFV head during maintenance operations. It was postulated that the vessel head would be dropped frcm a height of approximately 40 ft above the vessel-head flange, and that at impact, the head would be rotated 90 deg from the in-place crientation causing a point impact on the vessel. i The vessel loads due to the postulated impact were determined by dynamic, elastic perfectly-plastic finite element analysis. 9.1-59

4 INSERT (For Page 9.1-59)~ The following considerations are applied in performing the cask drop analysis:

1. The cask is assumed to be a maximum loaded cask with a  !

weight of 125 tons and handled by the main hook.  !

2. Each postulated cask drop assumes impact in a manner that inflicts the most severe damage.
3. No credit is taken for the spent fuel cask trolley's 3

multiple independent braking systems, limit switches, or other safety features. [ l 4 Drop analyses are based on an elastic-plastic curve that represents a true stress-strain relationship.

5. The cask is assumed to be transported at a height of 6 inches above elevation 113'-0" (Fig. 9.1-9).
6. All energy of each postulated drop is assumed to bc

, absorbed by the structure.

7. Drops are poululated along the travel path of the cask (Fig. 9.1-9) not restricted by mechanical stops.

! 8. The cask is assumed to be rigid and not to experience any deformation during impact.

9. The cask pool is assumed to be flooded during the cask-handling process. The water level is lowered slightly to avoid spill-over while the cask is being handled in the

! pool. However, this small loss of water does not significantly diminish the drag forces of the cask pool volume.

The cask drop analysis shows that there are no unacceptable effects caused by the free fall of the cask at any point along the path of l the main hoist's travel. The evaluation criteria of NUREG-0612, Section 5.1, are satisfied. None of the postulated cask drops result in the release of radioactivity. There is no damage to fuel or fuel j storage racks since the SFCT Main Hook Position is fixed at the midpoint between the trolley rails, and thereby prevents the cask
from being handled over the fuel storage pool or its walls. As shown in Fig. 9.1-9, rail stops prevent tra/el of the main hoist over the lower fuel transfer pool or its walls. None of the postulated drops '

cause damage that result in water leakage from the fuel storage pool. .No damage to safe shutdown equipment or degradation in safe shutdown capability is experienced due to any of the postulated drops. As shown in Fig. 9.1-9 the cask does travel over a pipe tunnel (Position 3) which contains safety-related electric cable and one safety-related pipe. However, analysis of the postulated drop I

shows that the reinforced concrete member does not collapse or j experience generalized failure. Localized spilling of the concrete may occur, but it will be contained by metal decking and therefore is , not considered capable of disabling the safety-related pipe or i electric cable. The postulated cask drops at Positions 4 and 5 (Fig. 9.1-9) do not result in unacceptable damage to the reinforced concrete member or slab. A cask drop at either of these positions t can be expected to cause localized chaling of the concrete at the impact point; however, analysis shows that structural integrity is maintained and no collapse, structural failure, or breach of the adjacent walls is caused. , A cask drop in the outside loading area does not result in any unacceptable damage since the cask's fall is onto the rail car or the rail tracks and does not impact any fuel building structural members. i i 4 i,

Demineralized makeup water is not regt>1 red for operation of the control building chilled water system, reactor plant component cooling water system, or the standby or HPCS diesel generators during accident conditions. Abnormal and accident conditions for these systems are discussed in Sections 9.2.10, 9.2.2 and 9.5.5 respectively.

INSERT C (For Page 9.2-17) The entry of radioactive water into the makeup water system is not likely to occur because, with the exception of the condensate makeup and drawoff system, all other interconnecting systems do not normally contain radioactivity and the makeup water system is normally at a higher pressure. , The makeup water system is protected against the intrusion of low level radioactive water from the condensate makeup and drawoff system by the 'ollowing:

a. The makeup water connection to the condensate storage tank is located one foot above the tank overflow and therefore radioactive contamination is not possible. This connection is an open nozzle, with no piping en the inside of the tank,
b. The makeup water connection to the condensate makeup and drawoff-system is used for filling the condenser hotwell during maintenance. This connection is normally closed with a locked closed gate valve and check valve.

RBS ESAR The condensate storage tank normally supplies the HPCS and RCIC systems. However, automatic shutoff valves are provided to close on low condensate storage tank level and transfer HPCS and RCIC pump suctions to the suppression pool, which is the pr,imary safety design source of core Japray water. The level instruments, together with their power supplies, transmitters, readout equipment, etc, that provide this transfer signal are safety related. The level instruments

  • are connected to the safety-related suction piping leading to the HPCS and RCIC pumps, and are physically located
               . within a Seismic Catagory I structure.

That portion of the condensate makeup and drawoff system - which penetrates the containment and forms part of the containment boundary (Fig. 6.2-65) is Safety Class 2 and Seismic Category I (Table 3.2-1). Failure of the condensate storage tank during normal operation would not result in the loss of water supply for  ! the control rod drive hydraulic system since the normal CRD system supply is from the condensate system pump discharge.

The catastrophic failure of the condensate storage tank (CST) does not flood any safety related equipment. Figure 9.2-25 shows the finish plant grading in the area of the CST, and the approximate area that would be covered by 6 inches of water from CST failure; ie, to an elevation of 95'-0". Since the ground is relatively level, water from CST failure spreads out over a wide area. Exterior openings located closest to the CST are an access door at el. 98'-0" and a truck door at el. 94.75', both in the north wall of the fuel building. These doors are designed to be watertight. In addition, the design of safety related structures is based on a probable maximum flood level of 98'-0" msl. Flood protection of the plant is further discussed in Section 3.4. 1 i a

i RBS FSAR 1 l QUESTION 410.51 (9.3.1) > The Penetration Valve Leakage Control System (FSAR Section 9.3.6), which supplies compressed air to the safety-related compressed air system (SRCAS), does not contain air dryers and after-filters. Discuss how you will meet the requirements of ANSI MC 11.1-1976 for air quality as stated in Section 9.3.1 of the Standard Review Plan (Paragraph III.2) for the compressed air supplied to the SRCAS.. .

RESPONSE

The penetration valve leakage control system (PVLCS) supplies air to three safety-related systems: the PVLCS, the main steam-positive leakage control system (MS-PLCS), and the main steam safety and relief valve system. The response to this request for compressed air supplied to the main steam safety and relief valve system is provided in revised Section 5.2.2.4.1. This system meets ANSI MC 11.1-1976. The PVLCS and MS-PLCS use air to pressurize valve bodies and pipes in various fluid systems that penetrate the containment. The air does not flow through small passages (such as solenoid valves) or equipment with small operating clearances (such as air operated pistons and cylinders); therefore,F tk 5 -.icron inlct filtcr On th c c = ,r r : C C o r 12 {f 2dequ2tc. Since most of the pipes and valve bodies to be pressurized are initially filled with water, air dryers would serve no purpose and are not provided. 3-micron filtration is not necessary.

         - The compressors are water seal units which by their design have no oil contamination. There also are no hazardous or corrosive vapors. The requirements of ANSI MC 11.1-1976 are not applicable to the PVLCS and MS-PLCS air systems since they are service air applications, not instrument air.

RBS FSAR one ADS valve can fulfill longer term needs. Each ~ accumulator is instrumented to provide the reactor operator with indication of an air supply problem. 3 The air supply to the ADS valves has been designed such that the failure of any one componenet does not result in the loss of air supply to more than one nuclear safety-related division of ADS valves. The loss of air supply to one division of ADS' valves does'not prevent the safe shutdown of

O micrunc. Ecfcr tc Ccction 0.0.C for a dcccription of thc r"LCC. Each SRV discharges steam through a discharge line to a point below the minimum water level in the suppression pool. The SRV discharge . lines are classified as Safety Class 3 and Seismic Category I. SRV discharge line piping from the SRV to the suppression pool consists of two parts. The first is attached at one end to the SRV and attached at its other end to a pipe anchor. The main steam piping, including the SRV discharge piping up to and including the first anchor, is analyzed as a complete system. Diameter, length, and i routing of the SRV piping are given in Appendix 6A,

       ,  Table A.6A.4-1 and Fig. A.6A.10-1 and A.6A.10-2.

The second part of the SRV discharge piping extends from the anchor to the suppression pool. Because of the upstream anchor on this part of the line, it is physically decoupled - from the main steam header and is therefore analyzed as a separate piping system. The effect of the alternate shutdown cooling mode on SRV discharge piping has been considered. The resultant load 7 distribution is within the design capacity of the spring hangers and othar support structures. As a part of the preoperational and startup testing of the main steam lines, movement of the SRV discharge lines will be monitored. The SRV discharge piping is designed to limit valve outlet pressure to 40 percent of maximum valve inlet pressure with the valve wide open. Water in the line more than a few feet above suppression pool water level would cause excessive pressure at the valve discharge when the valve is again Amendment 7 5.2-13a February 1983 (

INSERT (For Page 5.2-13a) During normal plant operation, SRV and ADS accumulators are supplied with air from the SVV air compressors. These NNS compressors provide 17 SCFM at 175 psig. Post-LOCA air requirements are supplied from the Penetration Valve Leakage Control System (PVLCS). Refer to Section 9.3.6 for a description of the PVLCS. Air from either source is dried to a dew point of -40*F at 140 psig and filtered to a maximum particle size of 1 micon. The NNS air dryer and filters have a safety Class 2 bypass line and isolation valves to ensure air is provided for the ADS function in the event the dryer / filter become inoperable or plugged. A safety Class 2 pressure transmitter which activates an annunciator in the control room is provided downstream of the dryers to alert the operator to a malfunction and allow him to remote manually isolate and bypass the dryer / filter. Pressure transmitters are also provided on the PVLC' air accumulators as described in Section 9.3.6. f i

RBS FSAR of the MSIV beyond the capacity or capability of the MS-PLCS.

12. Equipment is provided (as part of the MS-PLCS) to prevent the release of valve stem packing leakage to the environment from MSIVs outside the containment.

6.7.2 System Description 1 6.7.2.1 General Cescription The source of air for the MS-PLCS is the penetration valve ~- leakage control system (PVLCS) air compressors, one for the outboard system and one for the inboard system. Each air compressor is a nuclear safety-related air supply source for the MS-PLCS, the PVLCS and the main steam safety / relief valve system. Each compressor assembly contains an accumulator which is sized to accommodate the initial post-accident requirements of the three above listed systems with the long term . requirements being met with the function of the air compressor. The air compressors are equipped for water cooling and are designed to run ccntinuously for 30 days after an accident. The design temperature and

       .             pressure             for the compresscr assemblies are 1500F and
                  ~200 psig, respectively.                         Each compressor assembly delivers 70 4Hr scfm of air at an operating pressure of N9& psig. Refer
to Section 9.3.6 for a complete description of the PVLCS.

120 Two independent systems (outboard and inboard) are provided to accomplish the leakage control function. The leakage control barrier is established by pressurizing the isolated

volumes in the main steam line between the inboard and outboard isolation valves and the main steam shutoff valves.
                  .The pressurized volume eliminates out-leakage through the c1csed MSIVs and main steam drain lines such that any leakage which does occur is inward from the pressurized volume           into       the     reactor                           pressure                  vessel                                          (RPV)  or containment. Both systems are connected to the offsite as well as onsite emergency power.

The MS-PLCS is shown in Fig. 6.7-1 and 6.7-2. The outboard system is connected to each of the main steam shutoff valves, drain lines (inboard and outboard MSIV), and outboard MSIV stem packing leak-off lines. The inboard system is connected to the outboard MSIV body (inlet side) , and to the inboard MSIV drain lines located outside the centainment. I t.' l \i 6.7-3 l l l l

The instrument and service air systems operate continuously and are observed and maintained during normal operation. No special inspection and testing are required following pre-operational testing. The breathing air system portable purification units are tested periodically for human use in accordance with normal unit operating procedures. 9.3.1.5 Instrumentation Requirements 9.3.1.5.1 Air Compressors Manual control switches are provided in the main control room for operation of the air compressors. Control logic is provided so that a low air receiver pressure condition automatically starts the standby air compressor. 4 Loading and unloading of the compressors are accomplished by automatic ccntrols. A pneumatic unloader allows the air compressor to start unloaded. compressor trouble alarm is provided in the main control room. The air compressor stops if an extreme abnormal condition occurs. T'he pressure of the cooling water for the air compressors is maintained at its setpoint by modulating a valve in the TPccw supply line. 9.3.1.5.2 Instrument Air System Operation of the drying and purging cycle for the instrument air dryers is controlled by a cycle timer in conjunction with a four-way valve operator. Automatic controls are provided for operation of the instrument air dryer heaters during the dryer purge cycle. A dryer trouble alarm is provided in the main control room. 9.3-6 -

RBS FSAR and outboard PVLCSs is functioning properly. The pressure barrier is maintained at a pressure at least 10 percent higher than the peak calculated drywell pressure. Thus, only inleakage of nonradioactive air into the containment is possible past the valves, and no post-LCCA containment atmosphere is discharged thrcugh the pressurized valves. The effect on peak containment pressure due tc air inleakage is insignificant over a 30-day post-accident period. 9.3.6.2.2 Detailed Descripticn . The inboard and outboard systems are the same, and similar ,, to the MS-PICS in design and operation. Each PVLCS consists of the follcwing components as shown on Fig. 9.3-13a and 9.3-13b.

The MS-PLCS injection valves remain closed and do not place any demands on the PVLCS air compressors. However, the main may steam safety / relief valves' associated accumulatorsVdraw air from the EVLCS accumulators Le a;%; as fez leakag;; . Pressure transmitters maintain the EVLCS accumulators at a predetermined set point, at which the accumulators maintain , enough_ air'to meet all short-term requirements of the PVLCS, the MS-PLCS, and the main steam safety / relief valve system. An automatic start is provided for the air compressors to recharge the accumulatcrs above the minimum set point as determined by the pressure transmitters. Lir taeir aseec1etea 9.3.6.3.2 Cesign Easis Operation SVV compressors are unavailable. Approximately 20 min after it has been ascertained that a LOCA has cccurred, the PVLCS is actuated. The 20-min time period prevents the standby power supplies from being overloaded due to the starting current drawn by the PVLCS air compressors and motor-operated valves, adding to the  ;, starting current of other safety-related items. The 20-min

                                                                                                                                                                                              ~

l time period also serves as sufficient time for the reactor > vessel pressure to decay to a pressure at which the PVLCS can function. The air line pressure at the injection point to the process line valves is 1.1 times that of the reactor

drywell pressure. In addition, the leakage of fission products during the 20-min period is insignificant with

> respect to 10CFR100 guidelines.

                          'Upon            initiation,                  the injection valves and isolation valves must        be manually opened (remote manual initiating switch) .

The valves have interlocks that prevent leakage of any process line fluid upstream of the valves (Section 9.3.6. 5) . If, 5 min after initiation, high flow or low pressure is detected in one system, that system automatically isolates and the other system provides the seal. High flow and low pressure indicate that the process line valve is stuck open or partially open, or the system no longer maintains system integrity. Low pressure (sensed downstream of the isolation valve) by itself indicates that an injection valve or isolation valve has failed to open, or that the compressor is not operating correctly. The compressor is equipped with suitable instrumentation to detect and annunciate failures. 9.3-36 '

The response of the main control room habitability system to airborne radioactivity from outside air intake is automatic. On receipt of a high radiation signal, air flow is diverted through the emergency charcoal filtration unit, and kitchen and toilet exhaust fans are shut down. 7 I 6.4.4 Design Evaluation - 6.4.4.1 Radiological Protection Under normal plant conditions, outside air enters the main control room through the local outside air intake located on the roof of the control buildings. During accident conditions, fresh air may be drawn in through the remote air intake. Unit 2 can also use the Unit 1 local intake as its remote air intake as described in Section 9.4.1. Measurements taken from the radiation monitor in the air supply duct allow operators to select the least radioactive air intake. During a LOCA the outside air supply is automatically diverted through the main control room charcoal filter as a precaution regardless of outside air quality. All habitability systems are designed to meet the (? single-failure criterion. ( 6.4.4.2 Toxic Gas Protection The effects on main control room habitability resulting from postulated releases of offsite toxic chemicals, including chlorine and ammonia, are discussed in Section 2.2. Consideration of the human odor detection threshold is appropriate since the time difference between detection and incapacitation is equal to or greater than 120 sec.

           . The main control room operators are provided with self-contained breathing apparatus for protection in the event of 7      a toxic gas release. Each operator is taught to distinguish                                .

the odor of chlorine and ammonia and practico drills are conducted to ensure that each operator can don breathing apparatus within 2 minutes. The main control room air intake header can be manually isolated in the event of a toxic gas release.

Exception is taken to the requirements of any cooling mechanism satisfying single-failure criteria because a backup mechanism is provided. The decay heat produced by the radioactive material in i the inactive charcoal adsorbers of the ESF filter units is removed by a 100-cfm capacity centrifugal fan (for main control room filter decay fans, see Fig. 9.4-1c; for fuel building filter decay fans, see Fig. 9.4-2a; and for SGTS filter decay fans, see Fig. 6.2-58) which automatically starts when the main filter exhaust fan stops. The decay fan takes air from the respective

In the event that the 100-cfm decay fan fails, the respective main filter exhaust fan can be started manually to remove decay heat, since a high temperature in the charcoal adsorbers will be alarmed in the main control room. The temperature will not rise to the level where the adsorption capability of charcoal filter is reduced.

The standby switchgear rooms air-conditioning subsystem provides heating, cooling, and ventilation to the standby switchgear rooms, the associated battery rooms, the cable vault, and the general areas. The air-conditioning subsystem maintains a maximum air temperature of 1040F for the switchgear-rooms and cable vault and 900F for the battery rooms and general areas. The subsystem is designed ~ to operate during normal, shutdown, loss of offsite power, and DEA conditions without a loss of function. - Air is supplied to the standby switchgear rooms from redundant 100-percent capacity air-conditioning units. Each unit consists of a fan, filter, chilled water coil, and electric heating coil. Redundant full capacity fans return 25,300 cfm to the operating air-conditioning unit. An electric heating coil is located in the air handling unit to maintain a minimum supply air temperature. Smoke removal is provided by a separate subsystem consisting of an exhaust fan and dedicated ductwork. The smoke removal subsystem is seismically supported, but is not designed for DBA

 ' conditions. A   description of the operation of the standby switchgear room and cable vault smoke removal Section 6.4.2.

is given in ( Each battery room is provided with an exhaust subsystem which includes redundant full capacity exhaust fans. The ventilation supply air for each battery room is provided by the standby switchgear rooms air-conditioning units. There is no air recirculation from the battery rooms. Smoke removal is provided for each battery room using redundant gexhaust fans and exhaust ductwork. - The standby switchgear rooms and associated battery rooms are isolated from other areas in the building by fire doors, fire dampers, and fire rated walls. All fire dampers are thermally operated by means of a fusible link. 9.4.1.2.3 chiller Equipment Room Air-Conditioning Subsystem The chiller equipment room air-conditioning subsystem consists of an outside air supply, room exhaust, and redundant full capacity unit coolers.

Each unit cooler consists of a housing, cooling coil, i electric heating coil, vaneaxial fan, and ductwork. Prefilters and high-efficiency filters function to remove dust particulates from the outside air before it is

delivered to the system. Electric coils are provided for temperature and humidity control.

All unit coolers draw outside air from the intake plenum through ductwork. The cooling coils are provided with chilled water from the radwaste building chilled water j system (section 9.2.9) . Distribution duct from the unit , coolers supplies air to the clean areas. Air is exhausted l from potentially contaminated areas only, thus maintaining

air flow from clean to contaminated areas.

During ncrmal plant operation, the supply system operates continuously, providing tempered air throughout the building via unit coolers and the supply duct distribution system. f The radwaste building supply system has no safety functions and is inoperative in the event of a loss of offsite power.

areas to ensure that this part of the system satisfies the single-failure criteria.

4. The fresh air intake for the ventilation system is protected by a missile barrier (Fig. 1. 2-13) . The air intake is designed so as to prevent direct impingement on the system ductwork from any type of precipitation. The air intake opening is designed for a low velocity of approximately 250 ft/ min to minimize water droplet carryover. A protective bird screen of 1/2 in square, 16-gauge mesh is provided to prevent accumulation and subsequent blockage by either snow or ice.

The syatem capacity is based on maximum summer ambient design air temperature and the hea1 generated by equipment, motors, electrical components, piping and pipe hangers, valves and lighting. Heat dissipation within the areas where safety-related equipment is located, are analyzed individually to establish air quantities for effective cooling.

The auxiliary building normal exhaust path is provided with redundant, air operated, fail-closed isolation dampers to preclude the possibility of airbcrne radioactivity bypassing the boundary regions of the SGTS. In the event of failure of the nonsafety-related portion of the auxiliary building ventilation system due to a seismic event or malfunction of equipment, the safety-related portion is isolated by the redundant isolation dampers without jeopardizing the ventilation system. Failure of the nonsafety-related portion of the system does not compromise any safety-related system or component and does not prevent safe reactor shutdown. The SGTS performs the operations required for control of radioactivity following an accident. Refer to Section 6.5 for a description of this system.

All components of the supply air system are nonnuclear safety class and nonseismic, with the exception of outside air intake and isolation dampers which are designed to Seismic Category I and Safety Class 3 requirements. Ventilation air for the auxiliary building is drawn through a common missile protected and tornado-proof opening serving both the containment and auxiliary buildings and is designed to meet seismic Category I requirements (Fig. 1.2-13). Redundant isolation dampers are provided in the outside air intake to prevent any outleakage of radioactivity during a postulated seismic event. - INSERT 2 9.4.3.2.1.2 Exhaust Air System The exhaust system consists of two 100-percent capacity, 10,000 cfm exhaust fans, dampers, ductwork, and necessary controls. The ventilation air is induced into cubicles from the general building areas, thus keeping the cubicle at a slightly negative pressure and ensuring flow of air from areas of less to progressively greater potential radioactive contamination. The exhaust air is continuously monitored for radioactivity in the main control room by a radiation

            , monitoring      system      located     in    the  exhaust   duct

( f (Section 12. 3. 4) . In the event that radioactivity approaches a predetermined level, specified in the Technical Specifications, main control room operators can manually shut down the supply fans and reroute the exhaust air through the SGTS (Section 6.5). Each fan is connected with an automatic open/close damper which operates in conjunction with the fan. During the DBA, the auxiliary building ventilation system in iconjunction with the SGTS maintains 1/4 in W.G. negative pressure within the building. At this time, the supply and exhaust air systems are shut down, and the exhaust air is diverted to the SGTS. l l The exhaust fans are used for smoke removal in the event of fire in the auxiliary building during normal plant operation. 9.4.3.2.1.3 Unit Coolers System I Unit coolers are provided for removal of heat dissipated from equipment for the following areas:
