ATTACHMENT 3 Significant Hazards Determination

e Significant Hazards Determination The proposed change to revise the rupture of a main steam pipe analysis by eliminating the low-low pressurizer pressure safety injection initiating function does not result in a significant hazards consideration per 10 CFR 50.92.

1. The proposed change does not significantly increase the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. The elimination of the low-low pressurizer pressure safety injection initiating function is only for purposes of analysis, specifically in regard to the rupture of a main steam pipe. No physical changes or modifications are being made to the plant or its equipment.

Thus, there is no change in the probability of occurrence of any accident, including rupture of a steam pipe.

--..__,/

The current analysis for rupture of a steam pipe assumes that low-low pressurizer pressure safety injection is available. For certain small steam line break scenarios, safety injection is initiated based on pressurizer pressure. If the assumed pressurizer pressure safety injection is not available, the consequences of a small steam line break would require reanalysis.

An analysis was performed to evaluate small steam line break consequences, without the benefit of low pressurizer pressure safety injection. Our analysis concludes that the applicable accident analysis acceptance criteria are met for the entire spectrum of steam line break sizes, without relying on low-low pressurizer pressure safety injection. The large (hypothetical) steam line break remains the limiting steam line rupture case. Accordingly, we conclude that the consequences of a main steam pipe rupture are not increased and that low pressurizer pressure safety injection is not necessary for a rupture of a main steam pipe. Because the low pressurizer pressure safety injection is not necessary to mitigate a rupture of a main steam pipe, there is no increase in the consequences of a malfunction of the associated equipment.

2. The proposed amendment will not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. As noted above, no physical changes or modifications are being made to the plant or its equipment.

The only change is to eliminate the low pressurizer pressure safety injection initiating function for the rupture of a main steam pipe analysis.

3. The proposed amendment does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. As previously stated, our analysis shows that the applicable accident analysis criteria are met for the entire spectrum of steam line break sizes. In addition, the large (hypothetical) stream line break remains the limiting steam line rupture case.
