: 1. The logic used for these initiating conditions reflects the following considerations:
* The Fuel Clad Barrier and the RCS Barrier are weighted more heavily than the Containment Barrier. UE ICs associated with RCS and Fuel Clad Barriers are addressed under Sy~tem Malfunction ICs.
* At the Site Area Emergency level, there must be some ability to dynamically assess how far present conditions are from the threshold for a General Emergency. For example, if Fuel Clad and RCS Barrier "Loss" EALs existed, that, in addition to offsite dose assessments, would require continual assessments of radioactive inventory and containment integrity. Alternatively, if both Fuel Clad and RCS Barrier "Potential Loss" EALs existed, the Emergency Director would have more assurance that there was no immediate need to escalate to a General Emergency.
* The ability to escalate to higher emergency classes as an event deteriorates must be maintained. For example, RCS leakage steadily increasing
* would represent an increasing risk to public health and safety.
: 2. Fission Product Barrier ICs must be capable of addressing event dynamics .. Thus, the EAL Reference Table F-1 states that imminent (i.e., within 2 hours) Loss or Potential Loss should result in a classification as if the affected threshold(s) are already exceeded, particularly for the higher emergency classes.
* PINGP                                                                            6-F-1                                                           F3-2.1, Rev. 13

* Basis Information For Table F-1 PINGP Emergency Action Level Fission Product Barrier Reference Table FUEL CLAD BARRIER EALs: (1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7)
The Fuel Clad Barrier is the zircalloy or stainless steel tubes that contain the fuel pellets.
: 1.       Critic~! Safety Function Status RED path indicates an extreme challenge to the safety function. ORANGE path indicates a severe challenge to the safety function.
Core Cooling - ORANGE indicates subcooling has been lost and that some clad damage may occur. Core Cooling-ORANGE path is entered if core exit TCs are less than 1200&deg;F, RCS subcooling based on core exit TCs is less than 21 F [40F] and either:
* No RCPs are running and either core exit TCs are less than 700&deg;F and RVLIS full range is greater than 40%, or core exit TCs are greater than 700&deg;F and RVLIS full range is less than 40%.                                                                         .
* At least one RCP is running* and RVLIS Dynamic Head Range is less than 60% (2 RCPs) or 30% (1 RCP). [Ref. 1]                                                  .
Heat Sink - RED indicates the ultimate heat sink function is under extreme challenge and thus these two items (Core Cooling - ORANGE or Heat Sink - RED) indicate potential loss of the Fuel Clad Barrier. Heat Sink-Red path is entered if wide range level in both S/Gs is less than 50% and total feedwater flow to S/Gs is less than 200 gpm. [Ref. 2] (Note that if feedwater flow to S/Gs is reduced less than 200 gpm due to operator action, the Heat Sink-Red Path is NOT valid and consistent with the 1 (2)FR-H.1 procedure caution, Ref. 17)
Core Cooling - RED indicates significant superheating and core uncovery and is considered to indicate loss of the Fuel Clad Barrier. Core Cooling-RED path is entered if:
        ** Core exit TCs are greater than 1200&deg;F, or
* Core exit TCs are greater than 700&deg;F with RCS subcooling based on core exit TCs less than 21 F [40F], RVLIS full range is less than 40% and no RCPs are running Critical Safety Function Status Tree (CSFST) setpoints enclosed in brackets (e.g., [40&deg;F], etc.) are used under adverse containment conditions. Adverse containment condition thresholds apply when containment pressure is greater than 5 psig or containment radiation exceeds 1E+4 R/hr.
[Ref. 1, 8] During adverse containment conditions ERGS Subcooling does not adequately account for instrument uncertainties and the ICCM is to be used when checking RCS Subcooling.
The barrier loss/potential loss occurs when the plant parameter associated with the CSFST path is reached (not when the operator reads the CSFST in the EOP network).
* 2.       Primary Coolant Activity Level This vah,.1~ is 300 &#xb5;Ci/gm 1-131 equivalent. Assessment by the NUMARC EAL Task Force indicates that this amount of coolant activity is well above that expected for iodine spikes and corresponds to less than 5% fuel clad damage. This amount of radioactivity indicates significant clad damage and thus the Fuel Clad Barrier is considered lost.
There is no equivalent "Potential Loss" EAL for this item.
PINGP                                                6-F-7                             F3-2.1, Rev. 13
: 3.       Core Exit Thermocouple Readings Core Exit Thermocouple Readings are included in addition to the Critical Safety Functions to include conditions when the CSFs may not be in use (initiation after SI is blocked).
The "Loss" EAL 1200 degrees F reading corresponds to significant superheating of the coolant.
This value correspqnds to the temperature reading that indicates core cooling - RED in Fuel Clad Barrier EAL #1 which is 1200 degrees F. [Ref. 1]
The "Potential Loss" EAL 700 degrees F reading corresponds to loss of subcooling. This value corresponds to the temperature reading that indicates core cooling - ORANGE in Fuel Clad Barrier EAL #1 which is 700 degrees F. [Ref.1]                                                       *
'4.       Reactor Vessel Water Level There is no "Loss" EAL corresponding to this item because it is better covered by the other Fuel Clad Barrier "Loss" EALs.
The RVLIS values for the "Potential Loss" EAL corresponds to the top of the active fuel under various RCP configurations (2 RCPs running, 1 RCP running, or no RCPs running).
The "Potential Loss'' EAL is defined by the Core Cooling - ORANGE path. [Ref.1, 2]
: 5.       Containment Radiation Monitoring The 200 R/hr reading is a value which indicates the release bf reactor coolant, with elevated activity indicative of fuel damage, into the containment. [Ref. 9] The reading .is calculated
* assuming the instantaneous release and dispersal of the reactor coolant noble gas and iodine inventory associated with a concentration .of 300 &#xb5;Ci/gm dose equivalent 1-131 into the containment atmosphere. [Ref. 4, 5] Reactor coolant concentrations of this magnitude are several times larger than the maximum concentrations (including iodine spiking) allowed within technical specifications and are therefore indicative of fuel damage. This value is higher than that specified for RCS barrier Loss EAL #4. Thus, this EAL indicates a loss of both the fuel clad barrier and a loss of RCS barrier.
There is no "Potential Loss" EAL associated with this item.
: 6.       Other Indications Not Applicable
: 7.      Emergency Director Judgment
(
This EAL addresses any other factors that are to be used by the Emergency Director in determining whether the Fuel Clad barrier is lost or potentially lost. Such a determination should include imminent barrier degradation, barrier monitoring capability and dominant accident sequences.
PINGP                                             6-F-8                              F3-2.1, Rev. 13

Imminent barrier degradation exists if the degradation will likely occur within two hours based on a projection of current safety system performance. The term "imminent" refers to recognition of the inability to reach safety acceptance *criteria before completion of all checks.
                                           /
Barrier monitoring capability is decreased if there is a loss or lack of reliable indicators.
This assessment should include instrumentation operability concerns, readings from portable instrumentation and consideration of offsite monitoring results.
* Dominant accident sequences lead to degradation of all fission product barriers and likely entry to the CSFSTs. The Emergency Director should be mindful of the Loss of AC power (Station Blackout) and AT_WS EALs to assure timely emergency classification declarations.

RCS BARRIER EALs: (1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6)
The RCS Barrier includes the RCS primary side and its connections up to and including the pressurizer safety and relief valves, and other connections up to and including the primary isolation valves.
1.. Critical Safety Function Status RED path indicates an extreme challenge to the safety function derived from appropriate instrument readings, and these CSFs indicate a potential loss of RCS barrier.
RCS Integrity-Red path is entered if cold leg temperature decreases greater than 100&deg;F in the last 60 minutes and RCS pressure/cold leg temperature is to the left of Limit A. The combinat.ion of these two conditions indicates the RCS barrier is under extreme challenge. [Ref. 6] Heat Sink-Red path is entered if wide range level in both S/Gs is less than 50% and total feedwater flow to S/Gs is less than 200 gpm. The combination of these two* conditions indicates the ultimate heat sink function is under extreme challenge. [Ref. 2] (Note that if feedwater flow to S/Gs is reduced less than 200 gpm due to operator action, the Heat Sink-Red Path is NOT valid and consistent with the 1 (2)FR-H.1 procedure caution, Ref. 17)
The barrier potential loss occurs when the plant parameter assocjated with the CSFST path is reached (not when the operator reads the CSFST in the EOP network).
There is no "Loss" EAL associated with this item.
: 2.      RCS Leak Rate The "Loss" EAL addresses conditions where leakage from the RCS is greater than available inventory control capacity such that a loss of subcooling has occurred. The loss of subcooling is the fundamental indication that the inventory control systems are inadequate in maintaining RCS pressure and inventory against the mass loss through the leak.
* The "Potential Loss" EAL is based. on the inability to maintain normal liquid inventory within the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) by normal operation of the Chemical and Volume Control System which is normal operation of two low capacity positive displacement variable speed charging pumps discharging to the charging header. Each charging pump has a maximum capacity of 60 gpm [Rev. 7}. An RCS leak rate exceeding the capacity of one charging pump is indicative of a substantial RCS leak. Sixty gpm is used to indicate the Potential Loss which is readily determined by control room staff using either the plant process computer leak rate calculations or control board charging and letdown flow indications.
: 3.      SG Tube Rupture This EAL is intended to address the full spectrum of Steam Generator (SG) tube rupture events in conjunction with Containment Barrier "Loss" EAL #4 and Fuel Clad Barrier EALs. Tt,e "Loss" EAL addresses RUPTURED SG(s) for which the leakage is large en_ough to cause actuation of ECCS 1
(SI). ECCS (SI) actuation is caused by:
* PRZR pressure less than 1830 psig PINGP Either SG pressure less than 530 psig Containment pressure greater than 3.5 psig 6-F-10                            F3-2.1, Rev. 13

**    This is consistent to the RCS Barrier "Potential Loss" EAL #2. This condition is described by "entry into E..'.3 required by EOPs". By itself, this EAL will result in the declaration of an Alert. However, if the SG is also FAULTED (i.e., two barriers failed), the declaration escalates to a Site Area Emergency per Containment Barrier "Loss" EAL #4. [Ref. 8]
* There is no "Potential Loss" EAL.
* 4.         Containment Radiation Monitoring The 7 R/hr reading is a value which indicates the release of reactor coolant to the containment.
The reading is calculated assuming the instantaneous release and dispersal of the reactor coolant
* noble gas and iodine inventory associated with normal operating concentrations (i.e., within Technical Specifications) into the containment atmosphere. [Ref. 4, 5] This reading is less than that specified for Fuel Clad Barrier EAL #5. Thus, this EAL would be indicative of a RCS leak only.
If the radiation monitor reading increased to that specified by Fuel ~lad Barrier EAL #5, fuel damage would also be indicated.            *
* The physical location of the containment radiation monitors is such that radiation from a cloud of released RCS gases can be distinguished from radiation from nearby piping and components containing elevated reactor coolant activity, making the use of these monitors for this EAL classification appropriate.
* There is no "Potential Loss" EAL associated with this item.
* 5.        Other Indications Instrumentation used for this EAL is consistent with that used in the RCS integrity EOP. There is no additional applicable indication to use for RCS barrier EALs. [Ref. 6]

extreme challenge to the safety function. Containment-Red path is entered if containment pressure is greater than 46 psig. This pressure is the containment design pressure, and thus represents a potential loss of containment. Conditions leading to a containment RED
* path result from RCS barrier and/or Fuel Clad Barrier Loss. Thus, this EAL is primarily a discriminator between Site Area Emergency and General Emergency representing a potential loss of the third barrier. [Ref. 9, 1O]
The barrier potential loss occurs when the plant parameter associated with the CSFST path is reached (not when the operator reads the CSFST in the EOP network).
* There is no "Loss" EAL associated with this item.
: 2.      Containment Pressure Rapid unexplained loss of pressure (i.e., not attributable to containment spray or condensation effects) following an initial pressure increase indicates a loss of containment integrity. USAR Appendix K describes containment pressure response for a bounding LOCA. [Ref. 16]
Containment pressure and sump levels should increase as a result of the mass and energy release into containment from a LOCA: Thus, sump level or pressure not increasing indicates containment bypass and a loss of containment integrity.
* The 46 PSIG for potential loss of containment is based on the containment design pr~ssure. [Ref.
1~                            .                                           .
If hydrogen concentration reaches or exceeds 6% in Containment, an explosive mixture exists. If the combustible mixture ignites, loi;s of the *containment barrier could occur. To generate such levels of. combustible gas, an inadequate core cooling situation must already have existed. As described above, this EAL is primarily a discriminator between Site Area Emergency and General Emergency representing a potential loss of the third barrier. [Ref. 3]
The third potential loss EAL represents a potential loss of containment in that the containment heat removal/depressurization system (but not including containment venting strategies) are either lost or performing in a degraded manner, as indicated by containment pressure greater than the setpoint (23 psig) at which the equipment was supposed to have actuated. A full train of depressurization equipment is one containment spray pump and two containment fari coil units.
* This equipment will provide 100% of the required cooling capacity during post-accident conditions.
Each internal containment spray system consists of a spray pump, spray header, nozzles, valves, piping, instruments, and controls to ensure* an operable flow path capable of taking suction   I from the RWST upon an ESF actuation signal. [Ref. 11, 12] .

: 3.       Core Exit Thermocouples In this EAL, the restoration procedures are those emergency operating procedures that address .
the recovery of the core cooling critical safety functions. The procedure is considered effective if the temperature is decreasing or if the vessel water level is increa$ing.
Severe accident analyses (e.g., NUREG-1150) have concluded that function restoration procedures can arrest core degradation within the reactor vessel in a significant fraction of the core damage scenarios, and that the likelihood of containment failure is very small in these events.
Given this, it is appropriate to provide a reasonable period to allow function restoration procedures to arrest .the core melt sequence. Whether or not the procedures will be effective should be apparent within 15 minutes. The Emergency Director should make the declaration as so.on as it is determined that the procedures have been, or will be ineffective. The reactor vessel l~vels chosen are consistent with the emergency response guides (EOPS) for PINGP [Ref. 1, 3]
Core exit thermocouple readings of 1200&deg;F represent significant superheating of the coolant. This value corresponds to the temperature reading that indicates core cooling - RED in Fuel Clad Barrier EAL #1. Core exit thermocouple readings in excess of 700&deg;F with reactor vessel level below 40% RVLIS Full Range indicate core exit superheating and core uncovery.
* The conditions in this potential loss EAL represent an imminent core, melt sequence which, if not corrected, could lead to vessel failure and an increased* potential for containment failure. In conjunction with the Core Cooling and Heat Sink criteria in the Fuel and RCS barrier columns, this .
EAL would result in the declaration of a General Emergency -- loss of two ba.rriers and the potential loss of a third. If the function restoration procedures are ineffective, there is no "success" path. [Ref. 1, 3]               *
* There is no "Loss" EAL associated with this item.
: 4.       SG Secon.dary Side Release With Primary To Secondary Leakage This "loss" EAL recognizes that SG tube leakage can represent a bypass of the containment barrier as well as a loss of the RCS barrier. The first "loss" EAL addresses the condition in which a RUPTURED steam generator is also FAULTED. This condition represents a bypass of the RCS and containment barriers. In conjunction with RCS Barrier "loss" EAL #3, this would always result in the declaration of a Site Area Emergency. A faulted SIG means the existence of secondary side leakage that results in an uncontrolled lowering in steam generator pressure or the steam generator being completely depressurized. A ruptured SIG means the existence of primary-to-secondary leakage of a magnitude sufficient to require or cause a reactor trip and safety injection.
Confirmation should be based on diagnostic activities consistent with E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. [Ref. 8]
The second "loss" EAL addresses SG . tube leaks that exceed 1O *gpm in conjunction with a nonisolable release path to the environment from the affected steam generator. The threshold for establishing the nonisolable secondary side release is intended to be a prolonged release of '-
radioactivity from the RUPTURED steam generator directly to the environment. This could be expected to occur when the main condenser is unavailable to accept the contaminated steam (i.e.,
SGTR with concurrent loss of offsite power and the RUPTURED steam generator is required for plant cooldown or a stuck open relief valve). If the main condenser is available, there may be releases via air ejectors, gland seal exhausters, and other similar controlled, and often monitored, pathways.
* These pathways do not meet the- intent of a nonisolable release path to the environment. These minor releases are assessed using Abnormal Rad Levels I Radiological
* Effluent ICs. [Ref. 8]

* It should be realized that the two "loss" EALs described above could be considered redundant.
This was recognized during *the development process. The inclusion* of an EAL that uses
* Emergency Procedure commonly used terms like "ruptured and faulted" adds to the ease of the classification process and has been included based on this human factor concern.
A pressure boundary leakage of 10 gpm is used as the threshold in IC SU5.1, RCS Leakage, and is deemed appropriate for this EAL. For smaller breaks, not exceeding the normal charging capacity threshold in RCS Barrier "Potential Loss" EAL #2 (RCS Leak Rate) or not resulting in ECCS actuation in EAL #3 (SG Tube Rupture), this EAL results in a UE. For larger breaks, RCS barrier EALs #2 and #3 would result in an Alert. For SG tube ruptures which may involve multiple steam generators or unisola!>le secondary line breaks, this EAL would exist in conjunction* with RCS barrier "Loss" EAL #3 and would result in a Site Area Emergency. Escalation to General Emergency would be based on "Potential Loss" of the Fuel Clad Barrier.
: 5.       Containment Isolation Valve Status After Containment Isolation This EAL is intended to address incomplete containment isolation that allows direct release to the environment. It represents a loss of the containment barrier.
Irregardless of the reason for the containment isolation signal, if a containment isolation signal does not result in Containment Isolation Valve(s) to close and a direct pathway to the environment exists after Containment Isolation signal,* then FPB EAL Containment Loss 5 conditions are met and will result in at *(east an UE Classification. For example, an unsuccessful automatic containment isolation signal would result in a loss of the containment barrier. If the failure of the automatic containment isolation signal is followed by a successful manual containment isolation
* signal, subsequent escalations would have the containment barrier intact.
The use of the modifier "direct" in defining the release path discriminates against release paths through interfacing liquid systems. The existence of an in-line charcoal filter does not make a release path indirect since the filter is not effective at removing fission noble gases. Typical filters have an efficiency of 95-99% removal of iodine. Given the magnitude of the core inventory of iodine, significant releases could still occur. In addition, since the fission product release would be driven by boiling in the reactor vessel, tl:le high humidity in the release stream can be expected to render the filters ineffective in a short period.
* There is no "Potential Loss" EAL associated with this item.
: 6.       Significant Radioactive Inventory in Containment The 800 R/hr reading is a value which indicates significant fuel damage well in excess of the EALs associated with both loss of Fuel Clad and loss of RCS Barriers. [Ref. 4, 5] A major release of radioactivity requiring offsite proteGtive actions from core damage is not possible unless a major failure of fuel cladding allows radioactive material to be released from the core into the reactor coolant.
* Regardless of whether containment is challenged, this amount of activity in containment, if released, could have such severe consequences that it is prudent to treat this as a potential loss of containment, such that a General Emergency declaration is warranted. NUREG-1228, "Source Estimations During Incident Response to Severe Nuclear Power Plant Accidents," indicates that such conditions do not exist when the amount of clad damage is less than 20%. Accordingly, the
* EAL threshold corresponds to clad damage of 20%. [Ref. 4, 5]
I There is no "Loss" EAL associated with this item.

: 7.      Other (Site-Specific) Indications Instrumentation used for this EAL is consistent with that used in the Containment integrity EOP:
There is no additional applicable indication to use that may unambiguously indicate loss or potential loss of the containment barrier. Venting of the containment during an emergency is not used as a means of preventing catastrophic failure. [Ref. 9]
: 8.      Emergency Director Judgment This EAL addresses any other factors that are to be used by the Emergency Director in determining whether the Containment barrier is lost or potentially lost. Such a determination should include imminent barrier degradation, barrier monitoring capability .and dominant accident..
sequences.
* Imminent barrier degradation exists if the degradation will likely occur within two hours based on a projection of current safety system performance. The term "imminent" refers to recognition of the inability to reach safety acceptance criteria before completion of all checks.
* Barrier monitoring capability is decreased if there is a loss or lack of reliable indicators.
This assessment should include instrumentation operability concerns, readings from portable instrumentation and consideration of offsite monitoring results. *
* Dominant accident sequences lead to degradation of all fission product barriers and likely entry to the CSFSTs. The Emergency Director should be mindful of the Loss of AC power         *
(Station Blackout) and ATWS EALs to assure timely emergency classification declarations.
The additional bulleted items in the basis for Emergency Director judgment are a combination of bases information from NEI 99-01 revision 4. The first bulleted item comes from the notes on Table 5-F-1 as well as sections 3.9 and 3:10 of the NEI document regarding "imminent" barrier loss. The second bulleted item is from the bases of IC SG1, loss of all AC, regarding degraded barrier monitoring capability* that must be considered in this EAL. The third bulleted item also comes from the IC SG2 as well as SG2 (ATWS) regarding the importance of the use of Emergency Director judgment to make anticipatory declarations based on FPB monitoring.

Determine which combination of the three barriers are lost or have a potential loss and use the following key to classify the event. Also an event for multiple events could occur which result in the conclusion that exceeding the Loss or Potential Loss thresholds is imminent (i.e., within 1 to 2 hours). In this imminent loss situation use judgment and classify as if the thresholds are exceeded.

Description:==
The change will be made in both the Emergency Plan. EAL Matrix (PINGP 1576) Table F-1 FISSION PRODUCT BARRIER TABLE under the RCS Barrier, loss Column, #2 and in FS-2.1 (Emergency Action Level Technical Basis) Revision 12 page 6-F-7
: 1. Critical Safety Function Status:
"Less than or equal to 20[30] degrees F" will be changed to "less than 21 [40] degree F" The change will be made in both the Emergency Plan, EAL Matrix (PINGP 1576) Table f-1 FISSION PRODUCT BARRIER TABLE under the Fuel Clad Barrier, Potential Loss Column, #4 and in F3-2.1 (emergency Action Level Technical Basis) Revision 12 page 6-F-7
: 1. Critical Safety Function Status:
"32% with 1 RCP running" to 30% with 1 RCP running" and "62% with 2 RCPs running" to "60% with 2 RCPs running" ,
The changes are to align the Emergency Plan EAL Matric (PINGP 1576) thresholds with changes made to the Critical Safety Function Status Tree (CSFST) set points identified in the EOPs and ERCS per EC 27440. The CSFST set points are the basis for the noted EAL threshold values. The changes do not change the meaning or intent of the EAL and only align them with the new set point value. The screening determined that the revision meets the definition of change per Regulatory Guide 1.219 and that further evaluation is required.

==Title:==
PINGP 1576 and F3-2.1 PCR Number: 602000001164 and 602000001144 Editorial Basis (applies to E-Plan changes only) NONE Licensing/Basis Affected NEI 99-01 Revision 4 scheme of Emergency Action Level Actions was implemented BY Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) in accordance with the USN RC Safety Evaluation Report (SER), dated November 18, 2005. Changes to the PINGP EALS are required by the evaluation against the EALs approved for use at PINGP per that SER.
Evaluation Determination: The EALs continue to comply with the approved SER and NEI 99-01, basis guidance. Per NEI 99-01, revision 4, the basis for the affected set points is those from the CSFST monitoring and functional restoration procedures. For Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP),
these procedures are the EOPs and associated set points established by the EOPs. The meaning and intent of the basis for EALs remains unchanged with the parameter change. The effectiveness of the PINGP E-Plan is maintained by updating the thresholds to align with those approved in calculations SPC-EP-114 and SPC-EP-121 by use of the engineering change process.}}
