DATED , 1979 D.L.RENBERGE.On this day personally appeared before me D.L.RENBERGER to me known to be the individual who executed the foregoing instrument and acknowledged that he signed the same as his free act and deed for the uses and purposes therein menthioned. GIVEN under my hand and seal this IWday of., 1979.awed No ary Public in a for the State of Washin ton Residing at r MiRP-2 g 312.16 Provide an estimate, including your basis, of the total amount of hydrogen and methane gases that.can be generated by the radiolytic and chemical decomposition of organic materials and protective coatings under the conditions which would exist following a design base accident (i.e., a postulated loss-of-coolant accident). Your estimate should be limited to those materials and coatings that would be directly exposed to the containment atmosphere. ~Res ense: The estimate of the total amount of hydrogen and methane gas that can be generated by the radiolytic and chemical decomposition of organic materials and protective coatings under the conditions of a postulated loss-of-coolant accident is discussed in the answers to guestion 022.048. 'j g DZZ.048 You state in Section 6.2.5.3.1.3 of the FSAR that the corrosion of aluminum, zinc, and zinc base paints located either in the drywell or in the suppression chamber were determined to be insignificant. However, we have determined that a potential hydrogen release from the corrosion of zinc following a postulated loss-of-coolant accideet should be considered in the analysis of the to.al hydrogen oroduction 'nd accumulation within the containment. Accordingly, provMe the following information: I I t a.Provide the corrosion rate as a function of temperature for all materials in the containment that could become a source of hydrogen due to corrosion. Describe how the corrosion rates assumed for the materials identified in Item (a)were es ablished: identify ihe experiment 1 data base, including the aporooriate references, and discuss the conservatiBNlin the applicability of the data in view of the calculated environmental conditions following a postulated loss of coolant accident.c-Provide the mass and surface area of zinc paint and galvanized steel and other corrodible materials in both the drys(ell and the wetwel 1.d.Provide a graphic representation of the total hydrogen concen-tration inside the containment as a unction of time with (1)no hydrogen recombiners opera'ting; (2)one recombiner operating; and (3)both recombiners operating. e.Provide a gr phic r presentation of the contribution of each source of hydrogen as a function of time.Oescribe the periodic surveillance that will be done to demon-strate the operability of the hydrogen recombiners and the backup purge system.g.Identi-,g the location of (1)the hydrogen samole ooints in the drywell and the suppression chamber;and (2)the suction and discharge points oI" the combustible gas control system wi th respect to nearby structures and equipment. ZESPdWSE: ,'i'rev'eu of"cute conducten to det on Plum'num, g'nc'or/inc coatings, inaicates that several factors which woula tena to mitigate the evolu tion of hydrogen'=ollowing a postulated loss-of-coolant accident have not been reportea or have not been investigated. A brief explanation, therefore, is recuired to sub-'stantiate the rationale for the conclusions drawn in th'reSponse.. -...' /~I r~Question 022.048 asks a question with respect to the corrosion of aluminum and the sub-sequent evoiut'on oz nydrogen.The water chemistry of~p/~>'-3 is such that the water is free from accitives and is neutral,'.e., a pH of 6.5-7.5.Nith reference to Aluminum, Uhlig states: 1"Aluminum base alloys are not app eciably affectec by dist'ilod wate>>even at elevated temperatures (up to 180 C (350~F)at least).Furthermore, dis-tilled~ater is not contaminated by contact with most aluminum base.alloys." Uhlig states:-"Condensate from steam boilers, if=ree from carryover/of wate" from the boiler, is similarly'nert to aluminum base alloys.Thus, either wrought o" cast aluminum alloys are used success"uliv for s earn radiators as uni" heaters.hhere aluminum allovs are useds desirable to install su'table traps in the steam lines, s'nce entrapped bo'ie>>water, especially if alkaline wate" treat'ng compounds a'e employee, may be corros'e." Uhlig states:-"S earn causes a cefinite pro-tective white ziim to form~aluminum alloys.This film is h'ghly pzotective ag temperatures up to 180 to 350 C (3SO to 500 F).At tempe atures 0 0 above this rance, under some conc'ions at least, the steam zeacts with aluminum w'th the format'on of aluminum oxide anc hvcrogen." Q~c'%A Q o pef 8%nA Experimental data from the azorementioned rezerences indicate tha,t aluminum ana'luminum alloys are non-reactive witn pure wate~>and/or steam at temperat res up to and inclucing SOO F.Aluminum rapidiv form'a protective oxide film, in oxycen containing atmos-pheres, which is insoluble in neutral~ater or steam.Since the containment is noninerted, there is-free access to oxygen and has been throughout ~construction.."'--- ~The o~)ygen nas reacted with the alum'um to form the protective ticht adherent water insoluble and non-reacting f i 1m, which'~:,~~r><~s the Ms-oz hydrogen l:evolut'on at the tempe ature and/or environment present.during or following a postulated loss-oz-coolant l~t~I 1 f

Question 022.048 also adcresses tne corrosion of'zinc and zinc base paints anc the evoiut'on of hydrogen following a loss-of-coolant accident.Hubbell and=inkeldy stated
"L'ke several other metals whicn exhibi" marked resistance to corrosion in the atmosphere br'ght zinc rapidly tarnishes when firs exposed, forming a smooth"'ghtlv acherent protective film.The film is apparently a combina-tion of zinc oxide, zinc ca bonate and zinc hydroxide.

Zt's not readily soluble in ordinary atmospheric ~aters nor easilv destroyed by other atmospheric agencies.The film varies in tnickness depending upon the exposure conditions, probably reachinc a maximum thickness of.0003 in.Zf removed or worn tn'n by abrasion, it is renewed in a few days to its original thickness."!tciCay and Worthington state in their chapter on De f'ing Non-Corrosive ~neutral Range o f Raucous Solutions: "Zinc has useful resistance only in a relat'vely narrow, neutral range of solution;this resistance be'ng due in the simplest case to a'rotective ilm of hvdrate, abetted in the case of impure so'utions by other precipitated Cor osion products and compouhds deposited: om solut'cn.The hydrate's soluble on both the ac'd and alkal'ne sides o'f this neutral zone.Work by Roetheli, Cox and Litteral has very effec-tively drawn the l'mits of the neutral, hvdrate-forming zone in tests in distilled water witn nydrochloric usec to throw the solu ion acid and~sodium hydroxide alkaline.The solutions were kept rather strongly ag'ated." Figure~depicts tne results.oz,z..oh'-1 HcKav and Wortnington explain that: "The hydrate 6 is seen to have been most protect'e between the neutral point of pHN~and pH~2.5.The act, is brough" out that the exact shape anc locat'on of tnis curve is typical probably only of the partic-ula set of conditions under which the tests were made.Factors such as agitation, aeration, salts in the solut'on, and temperature, in conjunction witn hvdrogen-ion concentration, affect tne characteristics of film formation. The investigators conclude in a universal sense the condition of low or negligible corrosion probably lies between pH values of 6 and 8 as a minimum and ll as a max'mum."*(1 l e Cox in a paper titled"Ef feet of Temperature on the Corrosion of Zinc,", established the efzec" of temperature on the benavior of zinc in aistillec wa ter.The spec imen s were constantly in motion in the solution, and the solut'on was aerated with a stream of unwashed.air bubbles.The duration of the test was 15 days.The results of their invest'gation are shown in Figure 0 p<.048-2~Examination of the zinc hycrate film showea trat the strong increase in corrosion coincidea witn a change in the nature o the film zrom an adherent gelateneous state to a non-ache er.t granular sta.e.02%.OM-~able~1 gives the=esults of the change'n tne'm st ucture of zinc w'h respec" to tempe ature.TaaLE/~e" 2..0~8-I',:."""CT OF TE'OPERA URE ON THE CORROSION OF ZINC IN DISTILLED wAT P.o erne.erne.C 0 Cor"os ion Ratp mcjdm/dav mil/vr Appearance o f Corrose on F'm 68 20 3.9.78 Gelatenous, very adheren-122 50 13.7 2.74 Less gelatenous, acherent 131 149 167 203 212 65'5 100 76.2 577.0.460 58.7 23.5 15.2 115.4 92.0 11.7 4.7 ilosti t granular, nonage"ent Grarula to flakv, nonacherent Granular laky,'nonadherent Compact aense, nonaaherent Uery dense anc acherent*Ro'lea h'gh-grade zirc,'mmersed for 15 days in water aeratea by air bubbles.Soecimens rotated at 56 RPH.

Controls include the control panel located in the main control room and the local control panel for each recombiner located in environmentally suitable rooms in the reactor bu'lding.All of the functions necessary to control tne system are located in the main cont ol room.6.2.5.2.4 Containment Purge Since active and passive components of the containment atmosphere control system are edundant, containment purge as a backup system is not recuired.6.2.5.3 Design Evaluation Based on the assumptions of the model described below, it is calculated that the hydrogen concentrat'ion in the drv-well eventually reaches 4$bv volume approx'mately 10.0 hours after the postulated LOCA if the hydrogen recombiner 'is not in operation. The recombiner is started, however, when the hydrogen concentration reaches approximately 3.5%by volume hours after the postulated LOCA)to 1'mit the hvdrogen concentration 'below 4%by volume.Figure 6.2-26 shows the drywell and suporession chamber hydrogen concen-tration as a unction of time, with and without operation of the hydrogen recombiner system at design capacity of 150 scfm and at 105 scfm, minimum flow reauired to maintain the hydrogen concentration below 4%, by volume.The determ'nation of the time dependent hydrogen concen-tration in the drvwell and suppression chambe" atmospheres is based on a two-region model of the primarv containment, a drywell and a suppression chamber atmosphere. The drywell and suppression chamber free volumes contain air and water vapor at atmospheric pressure just prior to the postulated LOCA.Gases considered available for hydrogen dilution are the non-condensibles and water vapor present during normal operating conditions. Water vapor generated from blowdown is not considered.

The variables that have been found to affect plant pe sonnel exposu e inc'ude the following: a~BWR plants show an increase in otal personnel exposure du"ing the first few years of operation.

As discussed in 12.3.1, the equipment layout and design and shielding design are such that the exposures are as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).b.Group 2-This group includes plant operations personnel composed of supervisors, control room staff and plant equipment operators. There are approximately 29 people in this group.Tables 12.4-2, 12.4-3, 12.4-5 and 12.4-6 show the total estimated man-rem for this group.As can be seen, the total is approximately 111 man-rem per year or approximately 3.8 rem per year per man.Personnel in this group will be performing routine and non-routine operation and surveillance, waste processing and refueling operations. In plant operations personnel are expected to receive approx.one'o two rem per year per man for a maximum total of 58 man-rem per year.The remaininq 51 man-rem per year may be expected to be received by nonstation personnnel. As part of this total, the supervisors and control room staff are expected to receive an, exposure of.'less than 500 mrem/yr.." c.Group 3-This group includes health physics/chemistry technician personnel. There are approximately 8 people in this group.If the plant health physics/chemistry personnel spend li,'f their time collecting samples in zone III sampling stations, they will receive a maximum dose of 300 mrem/yr.Assuming the remainder of their time is spent in zone I and II areas the total dose is between 1 and 2 rem per person.The plant health physics/chemistry personnel also conduct radiation surveys and support maintenance activities which require continuous and pre-job radiation surveys.The exposure to these health physics/chemistry personnel ranges from 2 to 4 rem/yr.This is based on experience from operating plants.Assuming a dose of 3 rem per person per year and consi-dering 8 people in the group, the total is 24 man-rem per year.Since this group covers vi rtually all functions delineated in Tables 2 through 8, this 24 man-rem is considered to be spread out across all the functions. d.Group 4-This group includes engineers and technical supervisors. There are approximately 9 people in this group.Personnel in this group will spend most of their time in,Zohe I areas.where exposures are less than 500 mrem/yr.Table 12.4-7 indicates approximately 129 man-rem per year will be experienced for inservice inspection. Plant technical personnel will have a supervising roll in this operation with nonstation personnel performing the inspecting operations, Thus, the projected dose estimate for the 9 people in this group is 4.5 man-rem per year, the balance being accounted for by the nonstation personnel. e.Group 5-This group includes station supervisors such as health physics-chemistry supervisors, shift supervisors, etc.There are approximately 14 people in this group.Station personnel will supervise Group 1 and Group 2 personnel. Their dose is approximately the same as personnel in these qroups.With a projected dose estimate of 1 rem per year and 14 people in th.group the total dose is 14 man-rem per year~f.Group 6-This group includes administrative and management personnel. There are approximately ll people in this group.Personnel in this group spend their time in Zone 1 radiation areas'he projected dose estimates will be less than 500 mrem/yr.With ll people in this group and a 500 mrem per man per year the total dose is 5.5 man-rem per year.As seen from Table 12.4-1, the total estimated man-rem exposure is 613 man-rem.Groups 3, 5, and 6 are considered to,be spread oyer all the functions. These'groups.constitute only,7X of.the'total exposore in-any.case..'.: 12.4.4 SiTE BOUNDARY DOSE Steam-handling ecuipment on the turbine operat'ng floor can contribute to the s'te boundary dose in two ways: through a direct component and through an air-scattered"skyshine" componen". Since the N-16 bearing ecruipment is known, it can be shielded to reduce the direct component. The"skysnine" component reaches the site boundary as a result of those gamma ravs which are directed such"hat thev bypass any inter-cepting shield walls and a e scattered by the air to the site boundary.The calculated results show that the skyshine dose will have i" s greatest effect on a dose point 1950 meters north of the turbine bu'lding.The skyshine dose at this point will be approximately 3.6 mrem/yr.Th's result-is based on a plant capacity factor of 80%, at.full power operation. The ma.'n con ributors to tnis dose and their con r'but'on (in percent)are the south moisture-separator reheater (NSR)which contribute 60%, the north MSR which cont ibutes 20%, the c oss over 1'es'hich contribute 10%and the tu bines and feedwater heaters which cont ibute 10%.The dose es"ima"e was computed from a model ha-represents the N-16 gamma leakage by po'n isotonic sources.This model uses the outpu rom the COHORT Code(>)which g'ves the air-scat"e ed dose as a unction o distance anc source ray angle.The site boundarv dose from 1'cuid and gaseous e fluen-s are discussed'n 11.2.3 and 11.3.3. 12.4.5 RZ"ZR:"NCZS atomic Industrial Fo um, Compilation and Analysis of$7/)Da a on Occupational Radiation=xoosure=experienced at Ooeratina Nuclear Power Plants, September 974.-H-.4" USAEC, A Compilation of Occuoat'onal Radiation Exposure rrom Ln t Water Cooled Nuclear Power Plan 1969-1973, WASH-133.1.
