This will cause an initial increase in the charging flow through the charging path and a momentary lowering of the seal injection flow. The reduction in seal injection flow will cause the seal leakoff temperatures to rise approximately 1°F and then eventually lower back to the original value. A momentary loss of E-2 will cause a momentary loss of the ability to run C CCW pump. However, A and B CCW pumps are available and CCW flow to the RCPs will not be impacted. The motor bearing temperatures will remain relatively constant. To make this selection the candidate would have to assume that CCW was impacted by the events described. | ||

This capability would be used during a loss of offsite power event to ensure proper RCS pressure control capability is maintained. The power supply must be manually transferred to the selected emergency bus following the loss of offsite power to ensure that the PZR temperature remains above the RCS temperature. Once the power supply is transferred, the heaters are controlled from the RTGB. If the PZR heaters are being powered from one of the emergency busses, they will automatically trip upon receipt of a Safety Injection Signal, to ensure the Emergency Diesel Generators are not overloaded by these non-safety related loads. This trip feature is enabled by the PZR Heater Arm switch in the E1/E2 room. PZR control group heaters can also be energized from the DS bus in the event of a loss of all AC power. | ||

{{#Wiki_filter:1.007 EG2.4.11 001 Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit has just experienced an automatic reactor trip - BOTH turbine stop valves are CLOSED - TWO (2) turbine governor valves are CLOSED - RCS pressure is 1860 psig - Tavg is 542°F - No SI equipment has actuated S/G Pressure Steam Flows A 895 psig 0.1 X 106 Ibm/hr B 915 psig 0.1 X 106 Ibm/hr C 835 psig 1.3 X 106 Ibm/hr Which ONE (1) of the following identifies the correct plant status and operator response?
The reactor is tripped, the turbine is: A. NOT tripped Trip the turbine AND verify TWO (2) charging pumps running B Tripped Verify TWO (2) charging pumps running C. NOT tripped Trip the turbine AND manually initiate SI D. Tripped Manually initiate SI Page: 1 of 187 10/13/2011
The correct answer is B. A. Incorrect The first part of the distractor is incorrect. In the PATH-i basis document ,. the turbine is considered tripped if both turbine stop valves are closed. During immediate actions the governor valves are checked but not required to be closed if both stop valves are closed. The second part of the distractor would be correct if the turbine was not considered tripped. B. Correct. C. Incorrect The first part of the distractor is incorrect. In the PATH-i basis document the turbine is considered tripped if both turbine stop valves are closed. During immediate actions the governor valves are checked but not required to be closed if both stop valves are closed. The second part of the distractor is incorrect since no SI setpoint has been exceeded. The high steam flow with low Tave coincidence is not met since only one S/G has excessive steam flow. D. Incorrect The first part of distractor is correct. The second part of the distractor is incorrect since no SI setpoint has been exceeded. The high steam flow with low Tave coincidence is not met since only one S/G has excessive steam flow.

SD-006 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SYSTEM control systems. 4.1.1 Pressurizer Pressure (ESF-Figure-2) Pressurizer Pressure measurement is one of the inputs used to generate a Safety Injection signal. Three pressure comparators (bistables) provide an input to a 2/3 matrix to generate a Safety Injection signal at 1715 psig lowering pressure. This signal provides protection against the following accidents: an inadvertent opening of a SG safety valve, a steam line break, a spectrum of rod control cluster assembly ejection accidents(rod ejections), inadvertent opening of a pressurizer safety or PORV, and a SG tube rupture. This measurement is also used to provide: Low and High pressure reactor trips An input to the on-line algorithm to calculate the Overtemperature AT setpoints; and An input, via independent transmitters which transmit signals to the Presssurizer Pressure Control System, is provided to achieve channel independence. No components are shared by the protection and control functions; they are either protection grade RPS inputs, located and designed as such, or they are part of the Pressurizer Pressure Control System. The pressurizer pressure uses two-out-of-three RSPS logic. Since separate pressurizer pressure sensors are used for the control and RSPS channels, no interaction will occur. For more information on the pressurizer pressure detectors and pressurizer pressure control system refer to SD-059, Pressurizer and Pressurizer Relief Tank. 4.1.2 Reactor Coolant Temperature (ESF-Figure-1) The RCS Low Tavg signal (2 of 3 channels below 543°F) is used to initiate the Safety Injection signal, when coincident with high steam flow; and close the Main Steam Isolation Valves, when coincident with high steam flow (i.e., generate the Steam Line Isolation Signal). 4.1.3 Steam Flow (ESF-Figure-1) Hi Steam Flow (37.25% flow at no load to 20% load, increases linearly to 109% at full load) detected by at least one sensor on two ofthree steam lines, cyincident with Iw Tavg (543F) or low steam line pressure (614 psig), generates a Safety Injection signal and closes all MSIVs. Two flow controllers on each steam line are used to sense high steam line flow. This circuit is designed to detect steam line breaks downstream of the ESF Page 12 of 40 Revision 11 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

SD-006 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SYSTEM MSIVs. 414 Steam Line Pressure (ESF-Figure-1 & 3) Steam Line Pressure measurement is utilized for steam line break protection. Low steam line pressure (614 psig) in two of three main steam lines or Low Tavg (543°F) in two of three loops, coincident withhigh steam line flow in two-of-three main steam lines, will initiate the Steam Line Isolation and Safety Injection signals. This is to protect against: a steam line break downstream of the main steam check valves, a feed line break, and/or an inadvertent opening of a SG safety. In addition, each steam line pressure measurement is compared with a main steam header pressure measurement to determine if a high steam line differential pressure exists. A coincidence of two-of-three steam line differential pressures (100 psiçQ in any one steam line, that is, steam line pressure lower than main steamheader pressure, will initiate a Safety Injection signal. The steam header pressure is electronically limited to a minimum value of 585 psig. Therefore, this SI signal must be blocked before a plant cooldown is started to prevent SI actuation when S/G pressures drop below 485 psig(approximately 467°F). The steam line differential pressure circuit detects faults upstream of the MSIVs. Since the steam line check valves prevent reverse flow to the faulted S/G, excessive steam line differential pressure does not close the MSIVs. 4.1.5 Containment Pressure (ESF-Figure-4 & 5) Containment Pressure measurement is utilized to initiate Emergency Core Cooling in response to a Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA), and to provide containment pressure protection for either a LOCA, a feed line break inside containment, or a Main Steam Line Break inside containment. Nine pressure comparators, with inputs from six pressure transmitters, are used as inputs to ESFAS. Three pressure comparators provide an input for Hi Containment Pressure at 4 psig increasing pressure. Six pressure comparators provide an input for Hi-Hi Containment Pressure at 10 psig. A coincidence of two of three Hi Containment Pressure (4 psig) will initiate a Safety Injection signal. A coincidence of two separate two-of-three Hi-Hi Containment Pressure signals (10 psig), i.e., two-of-three twice, will initiate the following signals: Steam Line Isolation, Containment Spray Actuation Containment Isolation Phase B Safety Injection Signal(This SI is not credited and is blocked by the Tavg Block) ESF Page 13 of4O Revision 11 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

- The plant is at 100% RTP. - PC-444J, PZR PRESS, has failed HIGH.
Assuming NO operator actions are taken, which ONE (1) of the following completes the following statement? The FIRST reactor trip signal will be generated when the reactor protection (1) setpoint is exceeded. PCV-455C, PZR PORV, will receive a closed signal once pressurizer pressure lowers below (2) psig.

The correct answer is A. A. Correct. B. Incorrect At 100% RTP the failed open PORV will have a large impact on the OTdeItaT setpoint. It has been proven on numerous scenarios on the simulator that the reactor will trip on OTdeltaT vice Low Pressurizer Pressure at high power levels. At low power levels the Low Pressurizer Pressure setpoint will typically be the cause of the reactor trip. The second part of the distractor is correct. C. Incorrect The first part of distractor is correct. The second part is incorrect. The pressurizer pressure protection channels will provide an input to close PCV-455C once pressure has lowered below 2000 psig. 1715 psig is the low pressure safety injection setpoint. D. Incorrect At 100% RTP the failed open PORV will have a large impact on the OTdeltaT setpoint. It has been proven on numerous scenarios on the simulator that the reactor will trip on OTdeltaT vice Low Pressurizer Pressure at high power levels. At low power levels the Low Pressurizer Pressure setpoint will typically be the cause of the reactor trip. The second part is incorrect. The pressurizer pressure protection channels will provide an input to close PCV-455C once pressure has lowered below 2000 psig. 1715 psig is the low pressure safety injection setpoint.

SD-059 PRESSURIZER SYSTEM of load without reactor trip or any other control, except that the secondary plant safety valves are assumed to operate when steam pressure reaches their set point. A water seal is maintained below each valve seat to inhibit leakage. A resistance temperature detector (RTD) is installed in the discharge piping for each valve. The RTD provides indication and a high temperature alarm in the control room to warn the operator of an actuated safety valve or safety valve seat leakage. Acoustic monitors are also installed on each of the three safety valves. These monitors are located in the Cable Spreading Room where they provide local indication. Control Room indication and alarm is provided to warn the operators of an actuated safety valve or safety valve seat leakage. ..i. 3.5.2 PORVs (PCV-455C & 456) (PZR-Figure 4) Number 2 Service Open-Close air diaphragm Relief capacity 210,000 lb/hr per valve Set Pressure 2335 psig Fluid Saturated Steam Relief Line Design Temperature 470°F Relief Line Design Pressure 500 psig Relief Line Diameter 3 inches The two PORVs PCV-455C, powered from 125 VDC Circuit 7 on Distribution Panel B, and PCV-456, powered from 125VDC Circuit 19 on Distribution Panel A, have dual activating pressures. Whenever RCS temperature is above 360 F, the OVERPRESSURE PROTECTION switch is set for normal operation, and the valves will open at 2335 psig (except that PCV-455C is actuated by the variable output of a controller. That output is proportional to the error signal and reset, so that it may open at less than 2335 psig). During normal operation, the PORVs limit any pressure excursion and, thus, limit the operation of the spring-loaded PZR safety valves. An interlock with PT-455, 456, and 457 exists. This interlock will prevent the PORVs from opening unless two of three transmitters see RCS pressure &reater than 2000 ps. Motor-operated Block Valves, RC-535 and RC-536, powered from 480V MCC-6, located ahead of the PORVs, are provided in order to isolate the PORVs from service should they fail to close, or leak excessively. The Block Valves may remain closed during normal operation to isolate a PORV experiencing excessive seat leakage. Whenever the RCS temperature is between 360°F and 350°F, RCS pressure is between 375 psig and 350 psig, the OVERPRESSURE PROTECTION switch must be set for low pressure operation. The setpoint for opening is 400 psig at 360°F or less and increases as RCS temperature increases to a maximum setpoint of 2500 psig at 472°F. This PZR Page 11 of 27 Revision 9 INFORMATION USE ONLY

- Steamline Isolation Shuts all three Main Steam

- C.V. Ventilation Isolation Shuts C.V. Purge Valves, Pressure Relief Valves, and Vacuum Relief Valves.

A Containment Spray signal can be reset/overridden after actuation if it becomes necessary to stop or realign equipment actuated by the Containment Spray signal. Resetting/Overriding the signal will not terminate Containment spray or cause any component actuated by the Containment Spray signal to change state. Once the signal is overridden, no further automatic Containment Spray actuations will occur until all automatic actuation signals have cleared. A key operated CV SPRAY RESET switch on the RTGB is used to reset a CV Spray signal. Operation of the switch from the NORMAL position will actuate an annunciator on APP-002-Cl; FEEDWATER ISO/CV SPRAY OVRD/RESET. Until the Containment Spray signal is reset/overridden, any Containment Spray actuated equipment stopped from the RTGB cannot be restarted without removing and reinstalling that equipments control power fuses. This is due to the anti-pump feature of the equipment breakers. The Phase B Containment Isolation must be reset individually after the Containment Spray signal is cleared or overridden. Phase B Containment Isolation is reset from a pushbutton on the RTGB. This is normally required in the EOP network when <4 psig in the Containment. This allows stopping components and restoring Phase B isolation valves.

SD-006 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SYSTEM MSIVs. 4.1.4 Steam Line Pressure (ESF-Figure-1 & 3) Steam Line Pressure measurement is utilized for steam line break protection. Low steam line pressure (614 psig) in two of three main steam lines or Low Tavg (543°F) in two of three loops, coincident with high steam line flow in two-of-three main steam lines, will initiate the Steam Line Isolation and Safety Injection signals. This is to protect against: a steam line break downstream of the main steam check valves, a feed line break, and/or an inadvertent opening of a SG safety. In addition, each steam line pressure measurement is compared with a main steam header pressure measurement to determine if a high steam line differential pressure exists. A coincidence of two-of-three steam line differential pressures (100 psid) in any one steam line, that is, steam line pressure lower than main steam header pressure, will initiate a Safety Injection signal. The steam header pressure is electronically limited to a minimum value of 585 psig. Therefore, this SI signal must be blocked before a plant cooldown is started to prevent SI actuation when S/G pressures drop below 485 psig(approximately 467°F). The steam line differential pressure circuit detects faults upstream of the MSIVs. Since the steam line check valves prevent reverse flow to the faulted S/G, excessive steam line differential pressure does not close the MSIVs. 4.1.5 Containment Pressure (ESF-Figure-4 & 5) Containment Pressure measurement is utilized to initiate Emergency Core Cooling in response to a Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA), and to provide containment pressure protection for either a LOCA, a feed line break inside containment, or a Main Steam Line Break inside containment. Nine pressure comparators, with inputs from six pressure transmitters, are used as inputs to ESFAS. Three pressure comparators provide an input for Hi Containment Pressure at 4 psig increasing pressure. Six pressure comparators provide an input for Hi-Hi Containment Pressure at 10 psig. A coincidence of two of three Hi Containment Pressure (4 psig) will initiate a Safety Injection signal. A coincidence of two separate two-of-three Hi-Hi Containment Pressure signals (10 psig), i.e., two-of-three twice, will initiate the following signals: Steam Line Isolation, Containment Spray Actuation Containment Isolation Phase B Safety Injection Signal(This SI is not credited and is blocked by the Tavg Block) ESF Page 13 of 40 Revision I I INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

Case A has been analyzed to a long term stable condition. For breaks in this category, the establishment of an Q equilibrium pressure where pumped SI equals break flow constitutes a safe and stable condition for the long term provided that the steam generator heat sink is maintained until such time that the break flow and SI sensible heat can remove all the decay heat. Once equilibrium pressure was established, the core was covered and adequate flow existed to remove decay heat through the steam generator with a small amount of voiding. This stable and safe condition could go on without interruption for a long period of time. The only change in the primary system conditions through the transient for this case is a gradual decrease in fluid temperatures which is beneficial, since it indicates that adequate core cooling is being maintained. The equilibrium pressure condition is stable for the long term provided that SI and auxiliary feedwater are available. Since the RCS pressure at the equilibrium condition is determined by a balance between break and SI flowrate, in order to depressurize to a cold shutdown condition it is necessary to cool the primary fluid further while stepping down the SI flowrate. Long-term cooldown/depressurization of the plant is performed using guideline ES-1.2, POST LOCA COOLDOWN AND DEPRESSURIZATION. Breaks 3/8 < diameter < 1, maximum safety iniection Maximum safety injection (all high-head SI pumps operating) for a break in this range of size would have little impact on the results given for the previous case (Category 2) with minimum safety injection. The main effect would be a slightly higher equilibrium pressure where safety injection flow matches break flow. Therefore, this case was not included in the analysis. Breaks- 1 <diameter <- 13-1/2 (1FT
)
2 For break sizes of one to two-inch in equivalent diameter, the RCS will rapidly depressurize early in the transient, and an automatic reactor trip and safety injection signal will be generated based on low pressurizer pressure. During the early stages of the depressurization, when the system is still full of two-phase liquid, the break flow, which also will be mostly liquid, is not capable of removing all the decay heat. Therefore, the early depressurization is limited by energy removal considerations, and the RCS pressure will temporarily hang up above the steam generator safety valve set pressure, assuming no steam dump is available. The RCS pressure stays at this level in order to provide a temperature difference from primary to secondary so that core heat may be removed by the steam generator. At this energy-balance controlled pressure, however, pumped safety injection flow is less than the break flow, and there is a net loss of mass in the RCS. Voiding throughout the primary side occurs and eventually the RCS begins to drain, starting from the top of the steam generator tubes. The rate of RCS drain is determined by the net loss of liquid inventory, a function of both SI flow and break size. PrioçtG the occurrence of drirjpg, heat is removed from the steam generator through continuous two-ohaseiiatural
.ircü1atin, with two-phase mixture flowing over the top of the steam generator tubes. As the draining continues, the natUral circulation mode of heat removal as just defined ceases, and core heat is removed through condensation of steam in the steam generator. This method of heat removal is called reflux and is discussed in Reference 2.
p The condensation mode of heat removal is almost as efficient as continuous two-phase natural circulation in removing heat. However, condensation heat transfer coefficients may be lower than continuous two-phase natural circulation heat transfer coefficients. Thus, as the steam generator tubes drain, a slight increase in primary system pressure occurs to give a greater delta T from primary to secondary in order to remove all the decay heat. The steam generator secondary side pressurizes to the safety valve set pressure early in the transient, and remains there throughout the natural circulation and steam condensation heat removal modes. Eventually the mixture level on the primary side may drop completely below the steam generator tubes and begin to drain other regions in the RCS. Depending on the location of the break, the draining may partially uncover the core. For example, for a cold leg break liquid in the crossover leg region (loop seal) will block steam from the break, and the core must partially uncover in order to create a vent path for steam to exit from the core, upper plenum, hot legs and steam generators through to the break. The RCS draining occurs until such time that the break location uncovers, and break flow switches from two-phase to all steam. For hot leg or pressurizer vapor space breaks, however, the steam vent path exists without the need for the crossover leg region (loop seal) to clear of all liquid. Thus, no core uncovery is predicted. PATH-1-BD Rev 22 Page 62 of 112
As soon as the break flow becomes all steam flow for breaks in this range of size, steam generated in the core can Q exit out the break and further system depressurization occurs Safety injection flow increases to greater than the break flow, and there is no longer a net loss of mass from the RCS. No further core uncovery will occur under these conditions. Once the break flow has become all steam flow, the volume removed through the break is greater, so that the RCS depressurizes. Because of the RCS depressurization the safety injection flow increases and results in additional cooling since the safety injection water is subcooled. The steam generator may still be relied upon for heat removal by the condensation mode. However, only a small amount of heat removal by the steam generator is necessary and, with minimum auxiliary feedwater available, the steam generator secondary side will now begin to slowly depressurize below the steam generator safety valve set pressure. The primary system will aisaslowly depressurize along with the secondrvside. but wHI remain slighjybove thsecondary side in oressure to maintain the necery defta i9 renive aortipn of core hjhat the breaWd subcooled SI together cannot remov.. The RCS mixture level elevation will rise to the hot and cold leg elevations, and the break flow will oscillate from all steam flow to a two-phase flow. The RCS pressure will stabilize in the long term at the pressure at which the safety injection flow matches the break flow on a time averaged, or integral basis. This equilibration will not occur on an instantaneous basis since break flow will be oscillatory from steam to two-phase. But over an interval of time very long into the transient, when long term stability has been established, the relationship of safety injection equal to averaged break flow will exist. Another sample transient has been analyzed to further illustrate and supplement the previous discussion. Although the sample transient is for a plant which includes charging pumps in the SI system, the basic plant behavior for a break this large is essentially the same as that for a plant which does not include the charging pumps in the SI system. The analysis assumptions and a description of the transient, with reference to the previous general discussion, is provided below. Case B Standard 4-loop type plant, two-inch equivalent diameter hole in the cold leg, minimum safeguards safety injection. Loss of offsite power is assumed to occur at the reactor trip time and it is assumed that the only means of venting steam on the secondary side is through the steam generator safety valves. Minimum auxiliary feedwater is available one minute after the reactor trip time. The analytical model and all other analysis assumptions are in conformance with Appendix K criteria. This analysis demonstrates much of the phenomena discussed previously. The RCS pressure plot, Figure 6, shows a rapid depressurization to approximately 1200 psig at 5 minutes. The RCS pressure rises slightly from 1200 psig until approximately 30 minutes. The steam generator primary side drains during this period of slightly rising pressure. The crossover leg begins to drain at the time when the steam generator empties, and continues to drain until the flow path at the bottom of the crossover leg vents steam at about 30 minutes. This draining occurs because of the location of the break for this sample case, i.e., the cold leg. Immediately after the draining of the crossover leg (clearing of loop seal), the break uncovers and the break flow becomes all steam. This can be seen by a rapid decrease in break flow at that time on the plot in Figure 7, indicating a change from two-phase to all steam flow. Because the location of the break in this sample transient is the cold leg, the core level also decreases in conjunction with the crossover leg draining (Figure 8). The core level will decrease to the point where the hydrostatic head developed between the downcomer and the core is greater than the hydrostatic head that develops between the upside and draining downside of the crossover leg. At this point steam generated in the core prefers to flow around the loop seal rather than to continue to force the level in the core downward, since this path has less hydrostatic head to push against. This action allows steam to flow around the crossover leg and exit out the break. As steam is relieved out the break, the core pressure decreases relative to the downcomer pressure, and the hydrostatic head in the downcomer recovers the core. Note that this core level behavior is characteristic of a cold leg break of this size only. A hot leg break of this size would not uncover the core. The RCS depressurizes slightly immediately after the break flow becomes all steam, and the pumped safety injection becomes greater than the break flow. This can be seen by comparing the pumped safety injection and break flow plots (Figures 9 and 7, respectively). The core has recovered at this point, 32 minutes, and the level continues its increasing trend. From 32 minutes until about 50 minutes a slow system depressurization occurs. The system is still relying on the steam generator to remove heat, but to a lesser extent, since safety injection flow has been increased. Note from the secondary side pressure plot, Figure 10, that during this period of time, the secondary side pressure drops below the safety valve setpoint and continues to decrease slowly. After about 65 minutes into the transient, the break and subcooled SI can remove all decay heat, and the primary and secondary side pressure plots show that secondary pressure is now greater than primary pressure. At this point the system is in a stable mode. The subcooled SI is slowly reducing voids in the primary system. At 66.7 minutes, the core void fraction is 0.13 and reduces to 0.09 at 83.3 minutes.

GRID WOG BASIS/DIFFERENCES STEP J-15 RNP STEP ISOLATE FEED FLOW TO S/G WITH HIGH RADIATION WOG BASIS BASIS: (Rev IC) At this point the RCS pressure is low (below the low-head SI pump shutoff head pressure) and the plant is on cold leg recirculation. However, the secondary side may still be relatively hot and at a pressure significantly higher than the RCS. If this is the case, the operator should cool down and depressurize the secondary side by dumping steam from any intact SGs to aid in further cooldown and depressurization of the RCS. Steam should be dumped to the condenser, if possible, or directly to atmosphere using intact SG PORVs. To minimize offsite radiation doses the operator is instructed to obtain a dose projection before dumping steam from any SG and not to dump steam from any SG with an unacceptable dose projection. KNOWLEDGE: The operator should be aware that as a general rule if fuel damage is suspected (from high core exit thermocouple indications or from primary coolant samples), it is advantageous to keep the secondary side pressure above the primary side pressure in order to minimize radiological releases. BASIS: (DW-99-058) At this point the RCS pressure is low (below the low-head SI pump shutoff head pressure) and the plant is on cold leg recirculation. However, the secondary side may still be relatively hot and at a pressure significantly higher than the RCS. If this is the case, the operator should cool down and depressurize the secondary side by dumping steam from any intact SGs to aid in further cooldown and depressurization of the RCS and to remove heat from containment. Steam should be dumped to the condenser, if possible, or directly to atmosphere using intact SG PORVs. To minimize offsite radiation doses the operator is instructed to obtain a dose projection from the plant engineering staff before dumping steam from any SG and not to dump steam from any SG with an unacceptable dose projection. If fuel damage has occurred following a LOCA, there is a potential for releasing appreciable quantities of radionuclides from the RCS through pre-existing SG tube leakage, if primary-to-secondary differential pressure is established. In order to prevent such a release, SG pressures must be maintained greater than RCS pressure when RCS activity is high. The plant engineering staff will determine dose projections based on current values of SG activity, RCS activity and containment activity. The extent of SG depressurization allowed in this step is based on those dose projections. KNOWLEDGE: o The operator should be aware that as a general rule if fuel damage is suspected (from high core exit thermocouple indications or from primary coolant samples), it is pressure above the primary side pressure in Additionally, portions of the Executive Volume Generic Issue Evaluations By Plant Engineering Staff, section Evaluating Offsite Dose Prior to Intentional Release, will be revised to read as follows: PATH-1-BD Rev 21 Page 106 of 112

The correct answer is D. A. Incorrect In this situation, CVC-310A will fail open due to the loss of IA to containment. This will cause an initial increase in the charging flow through the charging path and a momentary lowering of the seal injection flow. The reduction in seal injection flow will cause the seal leakoff temperatures to rise approximately 1°F and then eventually lower back to the original value. A momentary loss of E-2 will cause a momentary loss of the ability to run C CCW pump. However, A and B CCW pumps are available and CCW flow to the RCPs will not be impacted. The motor bearing temperatures will remain relatively constant. To make this selection the candidate would have to assume that CCW was impacted by the events described. B. Incorrect See discussion in A above. To make this selection the candidate would have to assume that CCW was impacted and seal injection flow remained the same. The candidate must demonstrate knowledge of air operated valve fail positions and their impact on plant operations. The second half of distractor is correct. C. Incorrect The first part of distractor is correct. In this situation, CVC-310A will fail open due to the loss of IA to containment. This will cause an initial increase in the charging flow through the charging path and a momentary lowering of the seal injection flow. The reduction in seal injection flow will cause the seal leakoff temperatures to rise approximately 1°F and then eventually lower back to the original value. With two charging pumps running the PZR level will remain in its normal band. RCP Seal Leakoff temperatures are usually between 115°F and 130°F and will only rise a maximum of one degree before beginning to lower. The alarm setpoint for the RCP Seal Leakoff is 170 F. D.

SD-013 COMPONENT COOLING WATER SYSTEM intermediate system between the reactor coolant and the SW cooling system. This double barrier arrangement reduces the probability of leakage of high pressure radioactive coolant to the SW System. The CCW Radioactive Liquid Monitor (R-17) samples the CCW at the inlet of the CCW pumps and wilL alarm if excess radioactivity is detected as may occur following a leak into the CCW System (i.e., non-regenerative heat exchanger or RCP thermal barrier leak). Most of the CCW System piping within the containment building is located outside the concrete shield wall. This location provides radiation shielding which allows for maintenance and inspections to be performed during power operation. The surge tank accommodates expansion, contraction and in-leakage of water, and ensures a continuous CCW supply until a leaking cooling line can be isolated. The tank is vented to the Waste Holdup Tank. The surge tank relief valve is sized to relieve the maximum flow rate of water which enters the surge tank following a rupture of a RCP thermal barrier cooling coil. The relief valve discharges to the Waste Holdup Tank. In event of leakage or failure of the RCP thermal barrier cooling coil, the relief valves downstream are designed to maintain the RCS pressure boundary with closure of the associated isolation valves. The relief valves on the cooling water line downstream from the waste gas compressor, boric acid evaporator, excess letdown, seal water return, non-regenerative, spent fuel pit and RHR heat exchangers are sized to relieve the volumetric expansion which would occur if the heat exchanger were isolated. Makeup to the CCW surge tank is available from the primary water pumps (normal) and from the demineralized water system (backup). 3.0 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Component Cooling Water Pumps Quantity 3 Type Horizontal Centrifugal Rated Capacity 6000 gpm Rated Head 180 ft H 0 2 Motor Horsepower 350 HP Casing Material Cast Iron Design Temperature 200°F Power Supply CCW Page 9 of38 Revision 10 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

A. Prevent cavitation of the pump. B Reduce the pump starting current and prevent pump runout. C. Prevent water hammer damage to the RHR Heat Exchangers. D. Control the introduction of cooler water from the stagnant water in the suction and discharge piping of the standby pump. The correct answer is B. A. Incorrect Several AOPs and other Operations procedures address RHR pump cavitation as a concern. In this case there was no impact to NPSH, so cavitation is not a concern. B. Correct AOP-020 basis document states that the valves are closed to limit the starting current on the pump. OP-201 states that a RHR Pump should not be started with FCV-605 in automatic as this could allow runout of the pump before the control valve could respond. C. Incorrect Although some water hammer effects may be felt, this is not the basis for the decision for closing the stated valves. Additionally, the RHR Heat Exchangers will be exposed to a pressure transient when starting the standby pump since the stated valves are downstream of the RHR Heat Exchangers. D. Incorrect Although some cooler water may be present in the discharge and suction line of the stagnant pump, this is not the basis for the actions. Page: 14 of 187 10/13/2011

BASIS DOCUMENT, LOSS OF RESIDUAL HEAT REMOVAL (SHUTDOWN COOLING) Step Description SECTION E 14 This step was added to expedite the restoration of Instrument Air and 125V DC. If a loss of power (LOOP) was the cause of procedure entry, future problems due to loss of air or DC power are possible if solely relying on the APPs to direct restoration. Instrument air is needed for operation of FCV-605 and HCV-758. This step will also restore a Charging Pump is one was running. The Charging Pump would strip and not aito start on a LOOP. N15 This note describes what an Idle RHR Pump configuration is. During portions of GP-002 and GP-007, an RHR Pump is in an idled configuration. 15-17 These steps checks to determine if an RHR Pump is idled, the idled RHR Pump needed for core cooling, and then directs performance of the attachment that will realign an idled pump. 18 If power is available to the pumps, the conditions needed for starting the pumps are checked. If all conditions are satisfied the standby pump is started. j discharcie valves are closed to reduce pump startinci curtt. (The standby pump is the pump which was NOT running at the start of the event). If the reason for RHR pump loss is a loss of CCW, the step will transition the operator to the section dealing with CCW loss. If a pump can not be started the operator continues with diagnostics. Cl 9 This note (ARG-1, NOTE Step 1) informs the operator that changes in RCS pressure can affect RCS level indication. N19 The note gives the operator indications of RHR pump cavitation which will be useful in the next step. (SOER 88-03, Rec 3) 19 This step checks for RHR Pump cavitation by evaluating indications of RCS level, RHR System flow, and RHR Pump discharge pressure. If level is below the minimum level required to operate a pump the pumps are stopped to preclude damage and the operator transferred to the reduced inventory section. If cavitation is not present the operator proceeds in the procedure to determine other possible causes of loss of flow. 20 If cavitation is present with level above the minimum required for RHR operation the flow is throttled to the minimum in order to attempt to stop the cavitation. If the cavitation can not be eliminated the operator will stop the pumps and transition to steps to initiate SI to cool the core. AOP-020-BD Rev. 32 Page 41 of 51
5.10 IF CCW is NOT available to the RHR pump seal coolers, THEN the RHR pumps SHALL NOT be operated with pump discharge temperature greater than 135°F. With CCW available to the RHR pump seal coolers there is no time limit for running a single pump with flow only through the heatup recirculation line. It will be necessary to rotate the RHR pumps to avoid exceeding the 50°F AT limit between RHR loops as stated in GP-007. Based on the investigation performed for NCR 00222886, the normal operating value for CCW cooling flow to the RHR pump seal should be controlled to 10 gpm minimum. Per APP-001-B7/C7, the setpoint for the low flow alarm is 7 gpm. Also based on the above, the minimum seal cooling flow for operability of the RHR pump is 5 gpm. Note that this is based on the WCAP guidance as well as some margin (approximately 2 gpm) to the vendor stated requirements. 5.11 RHR pump flowrates of less than 2,800 gpm have been shown to increase pressure and flow fluctuations and should be avoided when plant conditions permit. This does NOT apply during recirculation operation. (ACR 91-078) 5.12 With the exception of swapping running pumps, when RHR is aligned for core cooling, both RHR Pumps should NOT be run simultaneously on recirculation when forward flow is NOT established to prevent pump over heating from dead heading of the weaker pump. (CR 98-01791) 5.13 With no flow in the RHR system, an RHR Pump should NOT be started with FCV-605 in automatic. This could allow runout of the pump before FCV-605 could respond to control flow. 5.14 RHR-750 AND RHR-751 shall NOT be operated (electrically or manually) in a dry condition. Damage to the valve seat may result without water to provide lubrication. For this reason, any maintenance activities occurring to the RHR System should either ensure water is maintained OR will be restored to both sides of these valves prior to operation. 5.15 The principles of ALARA shall be used in planning and performing work and operations in the Radiation Control Area. Access to the drain valves located under the RHR heat exchangers should involve RC removing the necessary shielding, opening the barrier access door, and evaluating radiological conditions. 5.16 This procedure has been screened lAW PLP-037 criteria and determined NOT applicable to PLP-037. 5.17 When operating RHR-754 A and RHR-754 B are operated via a reach rods AND care SHALL be used to ensure correct valve position. 5.18 Vent and drain valves operated in a closed loop system require administrative controls lAW GID/90-181/00/RCI Appendix D.

Which ONE(1) of the following identifies the alternate method to control pressurizer heaters lAW EPP-22 based on the conditions given above? A. Operate breakers on Pressurizer Htr Panel #3 Control Group B. Operate breaker 52/1 5B, 480V Bus 3 Main Bkr from the RTGB C Operate breaker 52/1 2B, 480V Bus 2B-3 Tie Bkr from the RTGB D. Operate the PZR Heater Emergency Control Station in the Rod Control Room The correct answer is C. A. Incorrect This action would control power to the control group heaters, however, this panel is in the Rod Control Room and would not provide desired control to the control board operators. Additionally, this option is not specified in EPP-22. B. Incorrect Opening this breaker would remove power to 480V Bus 3 and 2B and thus the control group heaters. This is not a desired method due to other loads that may have been started on 480V Bus 3 when it was energized by the DSDG. C. Correct. The preferred method is to adjust PC-444J in manual to control the amount of firing to the control group heaters. However, since PC-444J has failed to 0% output the heaters will be receiving full firing rate when energized. D. Incorrect Two PZR Heater Emergency Control Stations are located in the Rod Control Room. These control stations are utilized in AOP-004, Control Room Inaccessibility, to control the heaters.

SD-059 PRESSURIZER SYSTEM The control bank and both backup groups are operated from the RTGB. Power Supply: Control Bank - 480V BUS 2B Backup Group A 480V BUS 1 Backup Group B 480V BUS 2A The capability exists to power 150 kW of PZR heaters from Emergency Bus El and another 150 kW of heaters from emergency bus E2. This capability would be used during a loss of offsite power event to ensure proper RCS pressure control capability is maintained. The power supply must be manually transferred to the selected emergency bus following the loss of offsite power to ensure that the PZR temperature remains above the RCS temperature. Once the power supply is transferred, the heaters are controlled from the RTGB. If the PZR heaters are being powered from one of the emergency busses, they will automatically trip upon receipt of a Safety Injection Signal, to ensure the Emergency Diesel Generators are not overloaded by these non-safety related loads. This trip feature is enabled by the PZR Heater Arm switch in the E1/E2 room. PZR control group heaters can also be energized from the DS bus in the event of a loss of all AC power. 3.3 PZR Spray Lines Spray nozzle press drop at max. flow 15.0 psi at 70°F Continuous spray rate 1 gpm Pipe Diameter 4 in. Pipe Schedule 160 Design Pressure 2485 psig Design Temperature 650°F The PZR spray system is designed to pass a total flow of 600 gpm, 300 gpm per valve. The driving force of the spray water is a combination of the differential pressure between the hot and cold legs and the velocity head obtained by using a scoop in the reactor coolant piping. The spray nozzle, which is also protected with a thermal sleeve, is connected to the head of the PZR. It is designed to produce a narrow angle cone spray pattern that prevents cold water impingement on the PZR walls. The spray water is drawn from cold legs of loops B and C. The two lines tie together downstream of the control valves, form a loop seal, and supply water through a single spray nozzle. The ioop seal is provided to prevent the backup of steam into the piping when the spray valves are closed. A small continuous spray flow is provided, by means of the throttle valves (needle valves) which bypass the spray valves, to help ensure that the PZR liquid is in chemical equilibrium with the rest of the reactor coolant system (RCS) and to prevent thermal shock of the spray piping and the auxiliary spray connection.

- 23. Notify The SM/CRS That PZR Pressure Is Being Controlled Between 2200 PSIG And 2250 PSIG
BASIS DOCUMENT, CONTROL ROOM INACCESSIBILITY 21 This step has the operator inform the SM/CRS that PZR level in being maintained between 24% and 71%. N22 This note is a reminder to the operator that he is expected to periodically monitor PZR pressure and operate the PZR heaters, unless another operator is assigned this responsibility. 22 This continuous action step checks PZR pressure being maintained between 2200 and 2250 psig. The RNO provides the instructions for establishing pressure control. The pressure control band is based on the nominal HSD PZR pressure band, adjusted to the increments available on local indication. 23 This step has the operator inform the SM/CRS that pressure control has been established. 24 The operator is looped back to steps checking SR indication. As stated earlier, it is expected that on the initial pass through the procedure flux will not be in the SR. This transition provides transition back in the procedure to check indications and establish required charging flow based on flux. The loop will remain in effect until the Control Room has been made assessable. ATTACHMENT 2, Turbine Building Operator I This step directs the operator to obtain certain items, from the location specified, that may become necessary while performing this attachment. 2 This step has the operator check that the Turbine was tripped prior to Control Room evacuation. The step is provided should the Control Room actions be unsuccessful. Tripping of the turbine will prevent excessive plant cooldown. 3-4 The main Generator Lockout is an automatic signal that occurs 1 minute after the Turbine trip signal. It is not intended by this procedure that the operators remain in the Control Room to observe the Generator Lockout because there may not be time available to do this. However, if the lockout occurs prior to exiting the Control Room and it has been successfully verified, there is no reason to dispatch a valuable resource to the switchyard to verify that the Unit Output OCBs are open. If the lockout has already been verified, then these steps will bypass the action to go to the switchyard. 5 This step has the operator locally check Unit Output OCBs 52/9 and 52/8 open to assure separation of the generator from the grid. The RNO has the operator locally open them if he finds that they are not open. 6 Notifying the SM/CRS that the Switchyard breakers are open assists the SM/CRS in maintaining control of the evolution. N7 This note informs the operator that if there was a fire in the Control Room, the ventilation exhaust fan is de-energized to reduce the amount of oxygen available to the Control Room for combustion.

- The plant was operating at 100% RTP. - The plant has experienced a S/G tube rupture with a Loss of Coolant Accident. - Current RCS level is at the hot leg centerline. - No SI flow exists due to multiple malfunctions.
Which ONE (1) of the following identifies how heat is removed from the core for the given conditions? Boiling in the core produces steam which condenses in.... A. the high points in the RCS loops and flows down the hot and cold legs back to the core. B. the upper head and re-floods the core via the upper internals. C. the S/G tubes and flows down the cold leg back to the core. D the S/G tubes and flows down the hot leg back to the core. The correct answer is D. A. Incorrect Steam flows along the top of the hot legs to the steam generator where it condenses and returns to the core via the bottom of the hot leg piping. B. Incorrect If the upper head was cool the steam could condense and return to the core. However, the upper head will remain at a high temperature following a LOCA and minimal condensation will occur in the reactor vessel. C. Incorrect Steam flows along the top of the hot legs to the steam generator where it condenses and returns to the core via the bottom of the hot leg piping. It would seem intuitive that the condensation would re-enter the reactor vessel via the normal flowpath which is the cold leg, however, based on elevation changes, etc., this is not the case. D.

Case A has been analyzed to a long term stable condition. For breaks in this category, the establishment of an equilibrium pressure where pumped SI equals break flow constitutes a safe and stable condition for the long term, provided that the steam generator heat sink is maintained until such time that the break flow and SI sensible heat can remove all the decay heat. Once equilibrium pressure was established, the core was covered and adequate flow existed to remove decay heat through the steam generator with a small amount of voiding. This stable and safe condition could go on without interruption for a long period of time. The only change in the primary system conditions through the transient for this case is a gradual decrease in fluid temperatures which is beneficial, since it indicates that adequate core cooling is being maintained. The equilibrium pressure condition is stable for the long term provided that SI and auxiliary feedwater are available. Since the RCS pressure at the equilibrium condition is determined by a balance between break and SI flowrate, in order to depressurize to a cold shutdown condition it is necessary to cool the primary fluid further while stepping down the SI flowrate. Long-term cooldown/depressurization of the plant is performed using guideline ES-1.2, POST LOCA COOLDOWN AND DEPRESSURIZATION. Breaks 3/8 < diameter < 1, maximum safety iniection Maximum safety injection (all high-head SI pumps operating) for a break in this range of size would have little impact on the results given for the previous case (Category 2) with minimum safety injection. The main effect would be a slightly higher equilibrium pressure where safety injection flow matches break flow. Therefore, this case was not included in the analysis. Breaks 1 <diameter < 13-1/2 (IFT
)
2 For break sizes of one to two-inch in equivalent diameter, the RCS will rapidly depressurize early in the transient, and an automatic reactor trip and safety injection signal will be generated based on low pressurizer pressure. During the early stages of the depressurization, when the system is still full of two-phase liquid, the break flow, which also will be mostly liquid, is not capable of removing all the decay heat. Therefore, the early depressurization is limited by energy removal considerations, and the RCS pressure will temporarily hang up above the steam generator safety valve set pressure, assuming no steam dump is available. The RCS pressure stays at this level in order to provide a temperature difference from primary to secondary so that core heat may be removed by the steam generator. At this energy-balance controlled pressure, however, pumped safety injection flow is less than the break flow, and there is a net loss of mass in the RCS Voiding throughout the primary side occurs and eventually the RCS begins to drain starting from the top of the steam generator tubes. The rate of RCS drain is determined by the net loss of liquid inventory, a function of both SI flow and break size. Prior to the occurrence of draining, heat is removed from the steam generator through continuous two-phase natural circulation, with two-phase mixture flowing over the top of the steam generator tubes. As the draining continues, the natural circulation mode of heat removal as just defined ceases, and core heat is removed through condensation of steam in the steam generator. This method of heat removal is called reflux and is discussed in Reference 2. The condensation mode of heat removal is almost as efficient as continuous two-phase natural circulation in removing heat. However, condensation heat transfer coefficients may be lower than continuous two-phase natural circulation heat transfer coefficients. Thus, as the steam generator tubes drain, a slight increase in primary system pressure occurs to give a greater delta T from primary to secondary in order to remove all the decay heat. The steam generator secondary side pressurizes to the safety valve set pressure early in the transient, and remains there throughout the natural circulation and steam condensation heat removal modes. Eventually the mixture level on the primary side may drop completely below the steam generator tubes and begin to drain other regions in the RCS. Depending on the location of the break, the draining may partially uncover the core. For example, for a cold leg break liquid in the crossover leg region (loop seal) will block steam from the break, and the core must partially uncover in order to create a vent path for steam to exit from the core, upper plenum, hot legs and steam generators through to the break. The RCS draining occurs until such time that the break location uncovers, and break flow switches from two-phase to all steam. For hot leg or pressurizer vapor space breaks, however, the steam vent path exists without the need for the crossover leg region (loop seal) to clear of all liquid. Thus, no core uncovery is predicted. PATH-i -BD Rev 22 Page 62 of 1 12

The correct answer is A. A. Correct. B. Incorrect First part of distractor is correct. The MSIVs must be closed. The loss of the SUT will cause the EH Control Panel to be de-energized and the operator will be unable to confirm that the Turbine Stop Valves are closed. This will require that the MSIVs be closed. CVC-204A1B will isolate letdown if closed, however, EPP-1 directs the operator to close LCV-460A1B. If LCV-460A/B cannot be closed the RNO is to close CVC-200A,B,C. C. Incorrect - The MSIVs must be closed. The loss of the SUT will cause the EH Control Panel to be de-energized and the operator will be unable to confirm that the Turbine Stop Valves are closed. This will require that the MSIVs be closed. The second part of the distractor is correct. D. Incorrect- The MSIVs must be closed. The loss of the SUT will cause the EH Control Panel to be de-energized and the operator will be unable to confirm that the Turbine Stop Valves are closed. This will require that the MSIVs be closed. CVC-204A1B will isolate letdown if closed, however, EPP-1 directs the operator to close LCV-460A1B. If LCV-460A1B cannot be closed the RNO is to close CVC-200A,B,C.

- 13. 056AK1.03 001 Given the following plant conditions:
- The reactor has tripped due to a loss of off-site power. - Natural circulation flow is being established. - The Subcooling Monitor indicates the following information: - TIC at B07 558°F - T/C at H04 555°F - T/C at D05 556°F - T/C at R08 554°F - The RTGB indicates the following information: - P1-445: 1800 psig - P1-456: 1785 psig - P1-457: 1795 psig Determine the current value of subcoolinq that will be utilized while in the EOP Network.
A 62 63.5°F B. 64-65.5°F C. 66-67.5°F D. 68 - 69.5°F The correct answer is A. A. Correct. The lowest pressure of 1785 psig and the highest temperature of 558°F are to be used to calculate subcooling. 1785 psig equates to 1800 psia, which has a Tsat of 621.02°F. Subtracting 558°F from 621.02°F equals 63.02°F of subcooling. B. Incorrect. For this distractor the candidate utilizes the highest temperature and the highest pressure. 1800 psig equates to 1815 psia, which has a Tsat of 622.2°F. Subtracting 558°F from 622.2°F equals 64.2°F of subcooling. C. Incorrect. The candidate would have to incorrectly utilize the lowest indicated pressure of 1785 psig and the lowest given temperature of 554°F to calculate S/C. 1785 psig equates to a Tsat of approximately 621.02°F. Subtracting 554°F from 621.02°F equals 67.2°F subcooling. D. Incorrect. The candidate would have to incorrectly utilize the highest indicated pressure of 1800 psig and the lowest given temperature of 554° F to calculate S/C. 1800 psig equates to a Tsat of approximately 622.2°F. Subtracting 554°F from 622.2°F equals 68.2°F subcooling. Page: 26 of 187 10/13/2011

3.0 RESPONSIBILITES 3.1 Operations personnel are responsible for component manipulations as directed by this procedure. 4.0 PREREQUISITES 4.1 The Electrical System has been lined up to supply power to the Instrument Buses in accordance with OP-603, Electrical Distribution System, and OP-001, Reactor Coolant and Protection System. 4.2 The Reactor Vessel Level Instrumentation System (RVLIS) sensors and sensing lines have been filled and vented in accordance with MRP-008. 4.3 The RVLIS system has been calibrated in accordance with LP-042. 5.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 5.1 Operating personnel should refer to Section 8.4 for determining Saturation Margin if the Inadequate Core Cooling System becomes inoperative. 5.2 Under normal conditions, the pressurizer temperature is the saturation temperature corresponding to pressurizer pressure; therefore, the difference between pressurizer temperature and hot leg temperature is approximately the margin to saturation in °F. This may be used as a rapid backup method for determining saturation margin. However, this method will not be valid in the event that the hottest spot in the RCS should shift to another point in the system, such as formation of a void in the reactor vessel head. 5.3 When manually determining saturation margin, each temperature and pressure indication must be carefully evaluated for its validity. The highest valid temperature indication and lowest valid pressure indication should be used for a conservative determination of saturation margin. OP-307 Rev. 13 Page5of18

- 15. 058 AAI.03 001 Given the following plant conditions:
- Plant was operating at 100% RTP. - A loss of A DC Bus occurs.
Which ONE (1) of the following identifies the expected plant response due to the loss of A DC Bus? PCV-1922A, IVSW Automatic Header Pressure Control Valve Safety Injection PCV-1922A 4KV Buses 1 & 2 Exciter Field Bkr Actuation OPEN Fast-Bus Transfer Auto Trips A. YES YES YES YES B YES YES NO NO C. NO YES NO YES D. NO NO NO NO The correct answer is B. A: Incorrect - The first two distractors are correct. 4KV Buses 1 and 2 will not Fast-Bus Transfer due to a loss of control power. The Exciter Field Bkr will not open due to a loss of control power. Foldout A contains steps to dispatch personnel to open the exciter field breaker on a loss of A DC bus. The Exciter Field Bkr will trip on a loss of B DC Bus. The SI will actuate since Instrument Bus 1 is lost due to E-1 Bus being de-energized and Instrument Bus 2 is lost from the loss of A DC Bus. B: Correct C: Incorrect - Candidate may not remember that Instrument Bus 1 is lost due to the loss of E-1 resulting in the SI. Candidate may also think that there is not relationship between a loss of DC power with the Exciter Field breaker since a Generator Lockout will still occur from the 86BU. D: Incorrect - See discussion in C above for SI Actuation. Candidate may think that PCV-1922A will stay closed since, in this distractor, a safety injection did not actuate.

oss of 4 DISCUSSION This Basis Document provides the step justification for a plant specific EPP. There is no ERG background for this procedure and no Safety Significant Deviation identification number is assigned for the steps since there are no corresponding ERG instructions. The purpose of this procedure is to provide directions for combating conditions that arise from a loss of DC Bus A. The procedure is intended to handle situations arising from conditions in which the EPPs are applicable (> 350°F). This procedure assumes that no other casualty is in progress. Adjustment of the steps may be necessary if other events are in progress. A loss of DC is not an analyzed event at RNP and is not considered a credible event since a passive failure would be required to cause this event. If the Reactor Trip Breakers are closed, there will always be a Rx Trip from a loss of power to the 52/RTA UV coil. EDG A will always auto-start, (loss of power to air start solenoids), but without control power, it cannot flash its field or close its output breaker. Since DC Bus A supplies Inverter A, Instrument Bus 2 and 7 will always be lost. However, Loss of DC Bus A has vastly different consequences depending on the initial AC electrical lineup. Initially, if at power, following the reactor and turbine trip, 4 KV and 480V Buses will remain energized as the turbine coasts down. Bus voltage will decrease as the turbine speed decreases. DC Bus A supplies Control Power to Breakers on 4KV Busses 1 & 2, 480V Busses 1 & 2A, and 480V Emergency Bus E-1. (480V Bus 2B is normally supplied from 4KV Bus 1, so it will follow the effects of Bus 1. However, its DC Control Power is supplied by Bus B so it will not lose protective relaying)
- If these busses were initially on the Startup Transformer (SUT) they will remain energized. However, all Busses except for 480V Bus 2B will lose DC Control Power.
- If the busses were initially on the Unit Aux Transformer (UAT), the resultant RxfTurbine/Generator trip will attempt an auto-transfer, but without DC Control Power, this will not occur. The UAT will be deenergized along with all the busses and components it was supplying. The Loss of E-1 results in a loss of Instrument Bus 1. Since Instrument Bus 2 was lost from the Loss of DC Bus A, all bistables in both of these channels will fail and initiate an SI. (This will be a one-train SI since half the plant AC power is lost and the A train Sequencer is failed If the Reactor Trip Breakers were closed but all busses were still on the SUT, a Reactor Trip without SI will occur. If the Unit was at power and busses were on UAT, a Reactor Trip with SI will occur. Either way the EOP network will be entered. This EPP will be entered via PATH-i and EPP-7 or EPP-4. Certain actions necessary for a Loss of DC Bus A will be completed in Foldout A. These are actions that are performed to enable completion of certain steps in PATH-i and steps needed to combat the loss of DC. These steps are:
- Alignment of makeup to the Charging Pump suction by bypassing LCV-i 1 5B (CVC-358 is opened). LCV-i 1 5B fails closed and since Letdown is isolated, a path of water must be aligned to the Charging Pumps.
- Instrument Bus 2 is transferred to MCC-8 in order to regain instrumentation to aid in diagnostics of PATH-i.
- The exciter field breaker is tripped locally to prevent further damage to the Generator and Exciter. As the Generator coasts down, the exciter will attempt to maintain voltage by increasing its output. Normal protection is not available because the control power to trip the Exciter Field Breaker is via DC Bus A.
- A EDG Fuel Racks are tripped to stop the engine. This is the fastest method of stopping the damage to the air start distributor. The EDG is running but can not be loaded because of the lack of control power to the Voltage Regulator.
- Instrument Air is isolated to the EDG to prevent start attempts and conserve air in the starting receiver.
- If MCC-5 is deenergized it is transferred to the DS Bus. If the loss of DC Bus A occurred from an at power condition MCC-5 will be lost. Transferring the Bus to the DS bus will regain Instrument Bus 1 and safety related loads, such as valve operators powered from MCC-5.
This procedure and EPP-27, for DC Bus B have been credited in the evaluation of INPO SOER 81-15, PARTIAL LOSS OF DC POWER, recommendation 2C. No specific steps or sections were identified in the evaluation. EPP-26-BD Rev. 10 Page3of ii

Turbine Will trip via 20/AST from Rx Trip (20/ET has lost power). Generator Will receive lockout signal. However, 86P cannot open 0GB 52/8 & 52/9 due to the loss of their control power. This causes a Breaker Failure scheme which trips OCB 52/3, 52/6, 52/7, 52/12, 52/14 and the downstream breakers on the Darlington SCPSA line. The Exciter Field Breaker will open. 4KV Busses 1 & 2 If initially on SUT, nothing will happen. If initially oi UAT, the busses will auto-transfer due to the Rx Ttjp. In either case, 4KV busses 1 and 2 and all downstream busses and equipment will remain energized. 4KV Bus 3 Will remain energized on the SUT. 4KV Bus 3 and 480V Bus 3 will lose DC Control Power (including a loss of protective relaying) 4KV Busses 4 & 5 4KV Bus 4 will try to auto-transfer to Bus 3 but cannot due to the loss of DC Control Power. Thus, 4KV Busses 4 & 5 and all downstream busses and equipment will deenergize. 4KV Bus 4 and 480V Bus 4 will lose DC Control Power (including a loss of protective relaying) . Control Power (and protective relaying) will remain for 4KV Bus 5 and 480V Bus 5. Emergency Bus E-1 Will remain energized. SST 2F will lose cooling fans. Emergency Bus E-2 Will remain energized on the SUT but will lose DC Control Power (including a loss of protective relaying) . SST 2G will lose cooling fans.

EDG B Auto-starts due to loss of power to air start solenoids but will not field flash and output breaker will not close.
4o;s OF DISCUSSION This Basis Document provides the step justification for a plant specific EPP. There is no ERG background for this procedure and no Safety Significant Deviation identification number is assigned for the steps since there are no corresponding ERG instructions. The purpose of this procedure is to provide directions for combating conditions that arise from a loss of DC Bus B. The procedure is intended to handle situations arising from conditions in which the EPPs are applicable (> 350°F). This procedure assumes that no other casualty is in progress. Adjustment of the steps may be necessary if other events are in progress. A loss of DC is not an analyzed event at RNP and is not considered a credible event since a passive failure would be required to cause this event. If the Reactor Trip Breakers are closed, there will always be a Rx Trip from a loss of power to the 52/RTB UV coil. EDG B will always auto-start, (loss of power to air start solenoids), but without control power, it cannot flash its field or close its output breaker. Since DC Bus B supplies Inverter B, Instrument Bus 3 and 8 will be lost. DC Bus B supplies Control Power to 4KV Buses 3 & 4, 480V Buses 2B, 3, & 4, and 480V Emergency Bus E-2. Plant Distribution and Switchyard Effects
- If 4KV Buses 1 & 2 were initially on the Startup Transformer (SUT), these busses will remain energized. If initially on the Unit Aux Transformer (UAT), the resultant RxlTurbine/Generator trip will initiate an auto-transfer and the busses will continue to be energized.
- Since 4KV Bus 3 is initially on the SUT, it, and the busses it supplies will always remain energized. However, these busses will not initially have DC Control Power (This means that fault protection for these buses is inoperable)
- If 4KV Buses 4 & 5 were on Bus 3, these busses will also remain energized. 4KV Bus 4 will not initially have any DC Control Power, but 4KV Bus 5 will (its Control Power comes from DC Bus C).
- If 4KV Buses 4 & 5 were initially on the UAT, the resultant RxlTurbine/Generator trip will try to initiate an auto-transfer (4KV Bus 4 to Bus 3), but without Control Power, nothing will happen. The UAT will be deeneergized along with 4KV Bus 4 & 5 and 480V Bus 4 & 5.
- The loss of 4KV Bus 4 will affect this event most by taking away power to PP-47 which supplies the cooling fans to both Emergency Bus transformers, SST 2F and 2G (480V Bus 4 feeds MCC-12 which feeds PP-28 which feeds PP-47). Both transformers could experience overheating. There are several means of attacking this problem. Transformer 2G can be mitigated by load shedding Bus E-2. For Transformer 2F, EDG A is available and could be paralleled on to E-1 to reduce the total transformer load. The best solution in either case is to transfer 4KV Bus 4 DC Control Power to the emergency source which would allow 4KV Bus 4 to be transferred to 4KV Bus 3 and thus regain power to 480V Bus 4 and PP-47. This is accomplished in Attachment 2.
- A Generator Lockout comes from 86P, but the Generator Output Breakers 52/8 and 52/9 cannot open due to loss of Control Power. This causes a breaker failure scheme which isolates the failed breakers by opening all surrounding breakers (52/3, 52/6, 52/7, 52/1 2, 52/14, and downstream breakers on the Darlington SCPSA line).
- 480V Bus 4 uses DC Control Power from MCC-B-A fed from B Battery. This however will have little impact other than manual operation of the charging springs. 480V Bus 4 breakers are not remotely operated and fault protection is provided via internal power from CTs which feed the amptector device. The amptector provides power to the breaker trip actuator. Thus control power is not required to provide fault protection.
- 480V Bus 5 uses AC Control Power (stepped down from the incoming voltage). Therefore, it will always have control power if the 480V source is energized.
- Unlike a loss of DC Bus A, this event will trip the Exciter Field Breaker. Thus, downstream buses will immediately drop to 0 Volts instead of decaying during the coastdown.
- 480V Bus 2B is powered from 4KV Bus 1 so it will remain energized. However, its DC Control Power will be lost.
The main effect of the DC loss is a loss of cooling water to the Station Air Compressor (CWD-589). The control power will be restored via Attachment 2. If the Reactor Trip Breakers were closed but all buses were on the SUT, a Reactor Trip with no loss of AC Buses will occur. If the Unit was at power and buses were on UAT, a Reactor Trip with loss of 4KV Buses 4 & 5 will occur. Either way the EOP network will be entered. EPP-27-BD Rev 13 Page 3 of 9
Since an SI does not occur on a loss of DC Bus B, entry to the procedure will be via EPP-4, Reactor Trip. Certain actions will be completed while in EPP-4 via Foldout A. These actions are:
- a. Transfer of Instrument Bus 3 to MCC-8.
- b. Shutdown of Emergency Diesel B.
STEP SPECIFIC DESCRIPTION AND RNP DIFFERENCES The following pages will provide the RNP step number and the STEP basis for each step where applicable. This is a Robinson specific EOP, therefore there is no corresponding ERG series of steps. This procedure covers an event that is not covered by the ERGs (Loss of DC). The entire procedure may be categorized as an SSD 10. The steps within this procedure will not interfere with performance of the EOPs since this procedure does not consider any other event in progress other than a loss of DC Bus B. The loss of a DC Bus at RNP is considered beyond design basis and is not analyzed in the UFSAR. RNP BASIS STEP 1 STEP BASIS This step provides transitional direction for the subsequent step. If the Loss of DC occurred from an at power condition, the main generator output Circuit Breakers, 52/8 and 52/9, will be closed and action will be necessary to trip them. If the event started from a low power or shutdown condition the subsequent step will not be necessary. 2 STEP BASIS On a loss of DC Bus B the North and South Generator Circuit Breakers, 52/8 and 52/9, will receive a lockout signal. Due to the loss of DC these breakers will not open. This in turn causes backup relaying to open other breakers to isolate the generator. In order to accomplish actions later in the procedure and to allow reclosing the backup Circuit Breakers these breakers must be opened. There are no local controls that will open the breakers without control power. There is, however, a maintenance control (for testing) at each phase of the Circuit Breakers. This feature will trip the Circuit Breakers one phase at a time. Since this function was not intended to be performed by Site Personnel the Load Dispatcher will be notified to request assistance in opening the breakers. 3 STEP BASIS This continuous action step is provided to initiate efforts to repair the faulted DC Bus. It is placed early in the procedure so that efforts can be made to contact Maintenance personnel. The high level step provides direction to diagnose the cause and provides transitional guidance. There are three possible failure mechanisms that are the most likely causes:
- Fault on B Battery
- Fault on B Battery Bus
- Fault on MCC-6 The failure, or tripping, of the in-service Battery Charger, is not a likely cause of the loss of DC since warning would be provided via an annunciator with ample time for Operator action to transfer the Chargers.
N4 STEP BASIS The note reminds the Operator that AFW Pump B will not be available due to a loss of Control Power. 4 STEP BASIS This step assures the maintenance of the secondary heat sink by maintaining S/G level at the standard range used throughout the EOP Network. In this case AFW Pump A and the SDAFW pump are specified since AFW Pump B is lost. EPP-27-BD Rev 13 Page 4 of 9

A. Incorrect AOP-017 does not direct cross-connecting station air and instrument air until instrument air pressure has dropped less than 80 psig. Pressure is currently 83 psig. B. Incorrect Although lowering turbine load may assist in matching steam flow and feed flow this is not a mitigation strategy specified in AOP-017. The correct strategy is specified in AOP-OiO. C. Incorrect This would be a correct action if a loss of instrument air was not in progress. In the conditions given the lowering air pressure must be assumed to cause the FRVs to drift and taking manual control would not be an effective strategy. D.

The correct answer is A. A. Correct. B. Incorrect One PZR PORV will be used to reduce RCS pressure since letdown has been secured based on PZR level. If letdown was in service then Auxiliary Spray would be the correct answer. One S/C will have to be depressurized to less than 600 psig to enable a condensate pump to flow forward into the SIG. The SI signals will be blocked to preclude having to reset the FW Isolation signals. C. Incorrect The first part of distractor is correct. The second part of the distractor is the basis for depressurizing the RCS when RCS Bleed and Feed is required.

- A Reactor Trip and Safety Injection have occurred from 100% RTP. - EPP-16, Uncontrolled Depressurization of All Steam Generators, is being performed. - All steam generator (SIG) pressures are lowering uncontrollably.
Which ONE (1) of the following completes the statement below regarding the preferred method for controlling feedwater flow in accordance with EPP-16? The basis for lowering flow to 80 to 90 gpm to all S/Gs is to (1) and the preferred method of controlling AFW flow is to (2) A.

The correct answer is D. A. Incorrect. With a fault in one or two SIGs the operators are directed in Foldout A to dump steam from the intact SIC to control RCS repressurization once the faulted SIGs have dried out. Candidate may think that controlling the AFW flow to the SIG5 will have the same desired effect. Dispatching an operator to manually throttle the V2-16s is the RNO method for controlling flow. Typically this method is necessary due to the varying pressures in the S/Cs. However, control of feedwater is preferred to remain in the control room. B. Incorrect.

RNP WOG BASIS/DIFFERENCES STEP STEP 7 2 WOG BASIS PURPOSE: To control feed flow to minimize the effects of the cooldown due to the secondary depressurization and to subsequently control the transient. BASIS: Depending upon the size of the effective break areas for the steam generators, the cooldown rate experienced after reactor trip could exceed 1 00°F/hr. A reduction of feed flow to the steam generators has three primary effects:
- 1. To minimize any additional cooldown resulting from the addition of feedwater,
- 2. To prevent steam generator tube dryout by maintaining a minimum feed flow to the steam generators and,
- 3. To minimize the water inventory in the steam generators that eventually is the source of additional steam flow to containment or the environment.
The minimum feed flow of (S.04) gpm represents the value in plant specific units corresponding to 25 gpm. The 25 gpm value is representative of a minimum measurable feed flow to a steam generator. Plant specific values may depend upon flow instrumentation and the sensitivity of the controls on the feed flow. As steam flow rate drops, the feed flow will eventually increase the steam generator inventory. Feed flow is controlled to maintain steam generator narrow range level less than 50% to prevent overfeeding the steam generators. In addition, as SG pressure and steam flow rate drop, RCS hot leg temperatures will stabilize and start increasing. The operator controls feed flow or dumps steam to stabilize the RCS hot leg temperatures. This allows the safety injection flow to establish conditions for SI termination and minimizes thermal stresses that may be generated. RNP DIFFERENCES/REASONS Step 7 of the RNP procedure represents step step 2.a of the ERG. The RNP step has been split inot multiple steps in order to eliminate the actions contained in the ERG Caution at step 2 and to provide for other Human Factors concerns associated with the ERG step. SSD DETERMINATION This is an SSD per criterion 11. 8, 9, C2 WOG BASIS 10, & PURPOSE: To alert the operator to maintain a minimum feed flow to minimize any subsequent thermal shock to SG components BASIS: of If feed flow to a SG is isolated and the SG is allowed to dry out, subsequent reinitiation feed flow to the SG could create significant thermal stress conditions on SG components. Maintaining a minimum verifiable feed flow to the SG allows the components to remain in a wet condition, thereby minimizing any thermal shock effects if feed flow is increased. RNP DIFFERENCES/REASONS The RNP procedure places the caution or note in an action step to prevent actions within cautions and noted as required by the writers guide. The RNP steps for throttling have been split since the throttle valves are different for the SDAFW Pumps and the MDAFW Pumps. EPP-16-BD Rev 18 Page 17 of 41

SD-Ol0 NUCLEAR INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM 3.0 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION 3.1 Detectors A gas filled detector consists of an outer can, an inner electrode and the fill gas. An electrical potential is applied between the outer can and the electrode. When neutrons or gamma rays pass through the fill gas, ionization occurs resulting in ion-pairs being formed. The positive ion will be attracted to the negative potential (cathode) and the electrons will travel to the positive potential (anode). Adjusting the applied voltage will affect the acceleration of the ions and thus the number of ion-pairs formed. The number of ion-pairs collected is a function of applied voltage and can be plotted to yield a six region general characteristic curve for gas filled detectors (see Figure 7). Only Regions I, II, and III will be discussed here because these are the only types used in the NIS. Region I is the Recombination Region which has the following general characteristics:
- Not all ion-pairs formed are collected
- Increasing the applied voltage results in an increase in the number of ion-pairs collected
- The number of ion-pairs formed is dependent upon the type of radiation (i.e.
Neutron and Gamma caused ionization will be different) The JR inner chamber operates in this region, allowing large changes in compensation with small changes in voltage (0-1 1OV) Region II is the Ionization Region which has the following general characteristics:
- All ion-pairs formed are collected
- Increasing the applied voltage results in no increase in the number of ion-pairs collected
- The number of ion-pairs formed is dependent upon the type of radiation (i.e.
Neutron and Gamma caused ionization will be different) The JR outer chamber, PR, and Channels N5 11N52 detectors operate in this region. Region III is the Proportional Region which has the following general characteristics:
- Applied voltage is sufficiently high to cause secondary ionizations (called Gas Amplification)
- Output is proportional to the ionizing event
- The Gas Amplification ranges from a factor of ito a factor of iü NIS Page 15 of 48 Revision 9 INFORMATION USE ONLY
SD-O1O NUCLEAR INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM The SR Detectors operate in this range. The Nuclear Instrumentation System detectors are the gas filled type. The SR detectors 3 as a fill gas, the Intermediate and PR Detectors use N use BF 2 as fill gas. The fission chambers are also gas filled. When boron is used to detect neutrons by indirect ionization the following interactions occur:
+ 5 B ° > 7i L
3 + 4 H 2 e + 5e The 4 3 and He He particle is also called an alpha particle. The Li 2 2 ions induce ionization of gas atoms. The neutrons detected by excore detectors are leakage neutrons The Nuclear Instrumentation System employs eight radial detector locations containing a total of sixteen detectors (two Proportional Counters, two Compensated Ionization Chambers, four dual-detector Uncompensated Ionization Chamber assemblies, and two dual-detector fission chambers) installed around the Reactor in the Primary shield (see Figure 1). 3.1.1 SR Detectors BF Proportional Counters (see Figure 8) have a nominal thermal neutron sensitivity of ten cbunts per neutron per square centimeter-second. Nominal applied voltage is 1600 Vdc with a maximum of 1900Vdc. These counters provide pulse signals to the SR Channels. These detectors are installed on opposite sides of the core at an elevation approximating the quarter core height. High density polyethylene is used as a moderator and insulator inside the housing assembly. The SR detectors are designed such that gas pressure and volume minimize the magnitude of pulse signals caused by gamma radiation. The incident neutrons interact with the boron in the BF3 gas producing large pulses. The pulse amplitude created by the neutron is about 6 times larger than that created by the gamma. The gamma radiation does not interact with the boron to produce a large pulse. The output of these detectors is then fed to a discriminator circuit which will not pass the smaller gamma produced pulses, but will pass the larger pulses produced by neutron ionization. 3.1.2 JR Detectors Compensated Ionization Chambers (see Figure 9) serve as neutron sensors for the JR Channels, and are located above, in the same instrument wells and detector assemblies, as the SR Detectors. These detectors have a nominal thermal neutron sensitivity of 4 x 1014 amperes per neutron per square centimeter-second. Gamma sensitivity is less than 3 x NIS Page 16 of 48 Revision 9 INFORMATION USE ONLY

A test module is provided which can inject a test signal into any one of the rate circuits and can be monitored on a test meter mounted on the front panel of this drawer. Two power supplies are provided to assure rate indication from at least one Source and IR channel pair. 3.4 JR Channels (N-35 and N-36) (See Figures 4 and 14) JR output information is tabulated in Section 2.4.2. Each JR channel receives a direct current signal from a compensated ion chamber and supplies positive high voltage and compensating (negative) high voltage to its respective detector. The compensating high voltage is used to cancel the effects of gamma radiation on the signal current being delivered to the JR channel. Both high voltage supplies are adjustable through controls located inside the channel drawer. The detector signal is received by the IR logarithmic amplifier. This modular unit, comprised of several operational amplifiers and associated discrete solid state components, produces an analog voltage output signal which is proportional to the logarithm of the input current. This signal is used for local indication and it is monitored by the isolation amplifier and the various bistable relay-driver modules within the JR drawer. A 1 0h1 ampere signal is continuously inserted and serves as a reference during gamma compensation. Local indication is provided by a meter mounted on the front panel of the drawer which has a logarithmic scale calibration of 10 to I O amperes. The isolation amplifier is the same solid state module that is used in the SR; it supplies the same five outputs for the Intermediate Ranges. Six bistable relay-driver units are used in the JR Drawer to provide the following functions:
- Monitor the positive high voltage
- Monitor the compensating high voltage
- Provide the Permissive P-6
- Provide rod-stop (blocks automatic and manual rod withdrawal)
- Provide reactor trip
- Serve as a spare The JR permissive P-6 bistables and the relays from each channel are combined in the Reactor Protection System into one of two matrices to provide the permissive function and control board annunciation of permissive availability.
Permissive P-6 permits simultaneous manual blocking of the SR trips and removal of the SR detector high voltage. Once SR blocking has been performed, the operator may, through administrative action, defeat permissive P-6 and reactivate the SR high voltage and trip functions if required. This defeat is accomplished by the coincident operation of two control board mounted, momentary contact switches. This provision, however, is only operational below permissive P-b, which is supplied by the PR channels. Above P NIS Page 22 of 48 Revision 9 INFORM4TION USE ONLY
SD-010 NUCLEAR INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM 10, the P-6 defeat circuit is automatically bypassed and permissive P-6 is maintained which, in effect, maintains SR cutoff. The level bistable relay-driver unit which provides the JR rod stop function also drives two relays in the Reactor Protection System. Again, one of two matrices formed by the relays from the two JR channels supplies the rod stop function and RTGB annunciation (APP-005-A2). Blocking of the outputs of these matrices is administratively performed when nuclear power is above permissive P-JO and can only be accomplished by deliberate operator activation of two RTGB mounted switches. See NI-Figure-30 for this trip logic. The IR reactor trip function is provided by a similar circuit arrangement, the only difference being the trip point of the bistable unit. The same RTGB switches which control blocking of the rod stop matrices also provide blocking action for the reactor trip matrices. These blocks are manually inserted when the PR instrumentation indicates proper operation through activation of the P-b permissive function. On decreasing power, however, the more restrictive FR trip functions are automatically reinserted in the protective system when 3 of 4 PRs are <P-b. While these trips are blocked, there will be continuous illumination on the RTGB of INTERMEDIATE RANGE TRIP BLOCKED. The high voltage failure monitors provide both local and remote annunciation upon failure of the respective high voltage supplies. A common annunciator IR DET LOSS OF VOLT (APP-005-C2) is provided for the positive high voltage while separate annunciators N-35(36) LOSS OF COMP VOLT (APP-005-B2 and D2) are provided for the compensating voltages on the RTGB. Administrative testing of each IR channel is provided by a built-in test-calibrate module which injects a test signal at the input to the log amplifier. The signal is controlled by a multiposition switch on the front of each FR drawer. A fixed ampere signal is available in decade increments from 10h1 through b0 as well as a variable signal. As in SR testing, the OPERATION SELECTOR switch must be operated in coincidence with a trip bypass on the IR drawer. An interlock between these switches prevents injection of a test signal until the trip bypass is in operation. Removal of the trip bypass also removes the test signal. 3.5 IR Auxiliary Equipment The remote meter indication is in the form of an analog signal (0-ImA) proportional to the log of the ion chamber current. The isolation amplifier in each channel supplies this output to a separate meter (NI-35B, NI-36B). Meter calibration is iü- to i0 amperes. The NR-45 recorder has been described above for the SR. A 0-5OmVdc signal from the isolation amplifier is supplied to the recorder and is proportional to the ion chamber current range of 1 0 to 1 O amperes. Both IR channels indicate and record continuously on NR-45. The comparator and rate drawer receives four input signals (0-lOVdc), one from each of NIS Page 23 of 48 Revision 9 INFORMATION USE ONLY

At no time is it appropriate to make a transition to FR-l.3, RESPONSE TO VOIDS IN REACTOR VESSEL, and perform a head venting operation. This is contrary to the intent of guideline ES-O.3 where a vessel void is allowed to exist under controlled conditions while the plant is cooled down and depressurized to cold shutdown. If guideline FR-l.3 was used to vent the vessel head at this time, the steam void would not be eliminated. As pressure lowers (from venting), more water will flash to steam in the head region, which replaces the steam that was vented. The void size will remain essentially constant and the net result will be a loss of system inventory. Therefore, guideline FR-l.3 should not be used when cooling down and depressurizing the system with guideline ES-O.3. It should be noted that although guideline ES-O.3 is the approved guidance for natural circulation cooldown/depressurization with a vessel void, guideline ES-O.2 presents the preferred mode of operation (i.e., no void formation) and should be used whenever possible.
- 3. RECOVERY/RESTORATION TECHNIQUE The objective of the recovery/restoration technique incorporated into guideline ES-O.3 is to first recognize that an upper head void will form and then prepare for and monitor this void growth during the cooldown and depressurization of the RCS.
The following subsections provide a summary of the major categories of operator actions and the key utility decision points for guideline ES-O.3, NATURAL CIRCULATION COOLDOWN WITH STEAM VOID IN VESSEL (WITH RVLIS). 3.1 High Level Action Summary A high level summary of the actions performed in ES-O.3 is given in the form of major action categories. These are discussed below in more detail. MAJOR ACTION CATEGORIES IN ES-O.3 o Try to Start an RCP o Cool Down and Depressurize RCS While Controlling Void Growth o Lock Out SI System o Place RHR System in Service o Cool Down to Cold Shutdown o Try to Start an RCP The operator initially prepares for a natural circulation cooldown and depressurization in ES-O.2. Before continuing the cooldown/depressurization instructed by ES-O.3, an attempt is made to start an RCP, since it preferred is to cool down the RCS under forced circulation. If this attempt is successful, the operator is instructed to transfer to the appropriate plant procedure for cooldown under forced circulation. If proper conditions for starting an RCP can be established during the course of this guideline, the operator is instructed to repeat the step for starting an RCP. o Cool Down and Depressurize RCS While Controlling Void Growth Before cooling down and depressurizing the RCS, a pressurizer level is established to accommodat e void growth. During the cooldown/depressurization phase, a cooldown rate of less than 100°F/HR is maintained, together with a minimum RCS subcooling. RCS temperature and pressure should also be maintained within Technical Specification cooldown limits. To monitor void growth and maintain pressure control, RVLIS and pressurizer level instrumentation are checked for proper values. EPP-6-BD Rev. 12 Page 4 of 38
RNP WOG BASIS/DIFFERENCES STEP STEP 13 3 WOO BASIS PURPOSE: To continue the RCS cooldown and begin depressurization BASIS: This guideline is intended to provide a faster cooldown/depressurization than that outlined in ES-0.2. For this reason a maximum cooldown rate of 1 00°F/hr is allowed, along with a minimal subcooling requirement (i.e., instrument errors plus 20°F to ensure subcooling in hot legs). At the same time, however, the primary system pressure and temperature should be maintained within the Technical Specification limits. Deviation from the required cooldown rate could lead to excessive heat removal rates during the RCS cooldown. Since the intent of this guideline is to perform a controlled RCS cooldown and stay within Technical Specification limits, the requirement to maintain RCS temperature and pressure within these limits is explicitly emphasized in this step. Though this is not a pressurized thermal shock concern, emphasis is needed on maintaining RCS temperature and pressure within certain limits. The utility should be aware that a faster natural circulation cooldown/depressurization, which allows upper head void growth, poses an additional concern. A high temperature differential may exist between the vessel proper and the vessel head that could cause differential contraction between the vessel head and vessel body at the flange, thereby stressing the studs beyond the allowable code limits. A review of this potential thermal stress safety concern indicated that the best-estimate maximum differential temperature that could occur is 250°F, with 300°F being an enveloping maximum differential temperature. Westinghouse performed work for a number of near term operating license plants to address the safety grade cold shutdown requirements of draft Regulatory Guide 1.139, Guidance for Residual Heat Removal. The Diablo Canyon Natural Circulation Cooldown Pretest report included a review of the thermal stress concern in the reactor vessel during the natural circulation cooldown. Since the best-estimate maximum differential temperatures exceeded those analyzed for Diablo Canyon, the analysis results were extrapolated to determine the affect of the raised differential temperature. This extrapolation indicated that although thermal stresses will be raised for the greater differential temperatures, total stress in the reactor vessel closure studs is well within the allowable limits. Based on this evaluation, it is concluded that a safety concern does not exist in implementing the guidance contained in the WOO natural circulation cooldown guidelines. Consequently, a plant specific evaluation of the natural circulation cooldown thermal stress concern is not needed prior to implementing the ERGs. Although not required prior to guideline implementation, utilities may still desire to analyze this concern to better quantify the consequences in terms of potential margin reduction. Plant-specific evaluationlanalysis of the reactor vessel thermal stress concern requires an assessment of actual cooldown rates of the fluid in the reactor vessel upper head and actual reactor vessel metal temperature during a natural circulation cooldown utilizing the recovery strategies in the ERGs. This information can then be utilized in a finite element stress analysis of the reactor vessel flange area. RNP DIFFERENCES/REASONS Added instructions for steam dump operations and S/G level control. SSD DETERMINATION This is an SSD per criterion 10. EPP-6-BD Rev. 12 Page 15 of 38
Reduction in Core Decay Heat Generation: As cooldown progresses, the secondary pressure (and temperature) lowers. This causes the cold leg temperature to lower with steam temperature. The hot leg temperature also lowers after a time lag that is established based on the primary system delta T. To slow or terminate the cooldown, the steam dump valves are used to reduce the steam release, thus stabilizing and possibly increasing secondary pressure (and temperature) slightly. When the cooldown is slowed or terminated, the heat being removed from the primary system lowers to an equilibrium (constant temperature) level. The reduction in heat removal will result in a reduction in primary system delta T, the cold leg temperature will stabilize and possibly rise slightly and the hot leg temperature will lower slightly. This short term response of system temperatures to the initiation and termination of plant cooldown must be accounted for by the operator in performing cooldown steps to better control system temperature at the desired values. Since the operator is instructed to stop the cooldown in the step that follows this note, the purpose of this note is to address the short term response of RCS hot leg temperature when cooldown is stopped. It reminds the operator to expect hot leg temperature to lower further after the cooldown is stopped. The operator should stop the cooldown with sufficient temperature margin that the expected reduction does not exceed the temperature limit in the step. In the long term, the primary system delta T will gradually lower as core decay heat generation gradually lowers. As the primary system delta T gradually lowers, the cold leg temperature will gradually rise and the hot leg temperature will gradually lower. This long term response of system temperatures to the reduction in decay heat generation should be accounted for by the operator in performing steps that maintain system temperatures to better control system temperature at the desired values. Since this is a long term response consideration, it is not specifically addressed in the note. With respect to the long term effect of decreasing core decay heat generation rates on the behavior of system temperatures, the ERGs rely on operator knowledge and training to properly perform steps that initiate and terminate cooldown and maintain system temperatures. KNOWLEDGE:
- Expected THOT reduction (short term response) after cooldown is stopped due to a reduction in loop delta Ts. See BASIS section above.
- Expected THOT reduction (long term response) due to a reduction in core decay heat generation rates. See BASIS section above.
RNP DIFFERENCES/REASONS There are essentially no differences. SSD DETERMINATION This is not an SSD. 37 5 WOG BASIS PURPOSE: To continue the step-wise cooldown BASIS: At 1600 psig a reduction in primary temperature to 450°F is just short of reaching the limiting Technical Specification cooldown curve (see Figure 1). Here it is important that the operator consider the preceding NOTE so as not to violate the Technical Specification cooldown curve when stopping the cooldown at the specified temperature. The cooldown is now accomplished at the maximum rate of 100°F/hr, pressure is held constant at 1600 psig, and inventory is added to make up for system shrink. As explained in Step 3, RCS temperature and pressure should be maintained within limits of the Technical Specification cooldown curve and the limits imposed by this guideline. It is still unlikely that void formation will start or continue under these conditions as indicated in Figure 1. EPP-6-BD Rev. 12 Page 29 of 38

SD-003 RESIDUAL HEAT REMOVAL SYSTEM ATTACHMENT 10.3 Page 1 of 4 RHR AND CVCS OPERATION WITH SOLID RCS CONDITIONS In general, solid plant pressure control may be viewed as a mass/energy balance between the primary system (RCS and RHR) and the CVCS system. In order to analyze long term actions we must treat the conditions as a mass inventory balance. First we must state what conditions we know.
- 1. For steady state conditions the mass out must equal the mass in (Assuming constant RCS temperature).
m letdown m charging
- 2. PCV-145 is set to maintain letdown pressure (-375 psig).
- 3. Charging flow is constant and controlled by speed of the pump.
- 4. Letdown flow is dependent on the total head loss in the line and the Delta-P between Primary and VCT.
- a. Total Head Loss Component Head Loss + Piping Head Loss HCV-142 + Piping Head Loss PCV-145 + Piping Head Loss R.C. Filter + Piping Head Loss Demineralizers + Piping Head Loss
- b. Flow Rate Is Inversely Proportional to Head Loss
- 5. Reactor coolant filter and demineralizer head loss increase only slightly over time.
Using the above information, we will examine several transients.
- 1. Set PCV-145 to maintain a low pressure
£j45 will oen and increase letdown flow. Mass flow from the primary increases and pressure will decrease. As primary pressure decreases, letdown flow will decrease.
Net overall effect will be a lower primary and letdown line pressure. RHR Page 41 of 45 Revision 14 INFORMATION USE ONLY
SD-003 RESIDUAL HEAT REMOVAL SYSTEM ATTACHMENT 10.3 Page 2 of 4 RIJR AND CVCS OPERATION WITH SOLID RCS CONDITION S
- 2. Set PCV-145 to maintain a higher pressure PCV-145 will close and decrease letdown flow. Primary system pressu re will increase.
As primary system pressure increases, letdown flow will increase. The net effect will be a higher system pressure and higher letdown pressure.
- 3. Closing HCV-142 As HCV-142 is closed, PCV-145 will close to maintain letdown pressu re constant. As HCV-142 and PCV-145 close, letdown flow will decrease and system pressure will increase. As system pressure increases, letdown flow will be restore d to its normal value and the pressure increase will stop. Net result will be HCV-142 manually throttled, PCV-145 open less and system pressure higher.
- 4. Open HCV-142 The effect of opening HCV-142 is equal and opposite that of closing HCV-142. The net effect, steady state to steady state, is a lower system pressure and PCV-145 open further.
- 5. 0 enRH -758 s HCV-758 is opened, FCV-605 will close (if in automatic) thus mainta ining a constant RHR pump discharge pressure and constant letdown flow rate.
However, during the time period that FCV-605 is matching RHR flow, there will be a pressure decrease and perturbation in letdown flow. The long term effect is more flow through the RHR heat exchanger and areaseinRCStemneare. As RCS temper ature decreases, system volume decrases. As system volume decreases, system pressure will decrease. As system pressure decreases, letdown pressure will decrea se and PCV 145 will go closed. The net effect steady state to steady state is that PCV-1 45 will reduce letdown flow by an amount equal to that necessary to offset RCS shrink age due to the cool down rate in progress at the time. As VCT level decreases due to reduced letdown flow, RCS makeup will occur to maintain RCS inventory. If FCV-605 is in manual, the effect on system pressure will be similar to that of throttli ng HCV-142. As HCV-758 is opened, RHR pump discharge pressure will decrease. Letdow n flow will decrease. In this case the decrease in letdown flow will offset the decrease in RCS water volume due to cool down. However, since there are two variabl es changing, the overall effect is hard to determine.

- 7. Stop the running RHR pump When the running RHR pump is stopped, letdown flow essentially drops to zero. At the same time that letdown flow goes to zero, RCS temperatures began to rise due to no flow through the coolers. Both of these factors will rapidly increas e RCS pressure. If left with no Operator action, RCS pressure would eventually rise to a point to again establish letdown flow equal to charging flow. If charging flow is terminated, RCS pressure will still rise to a point sufficient to give letdown flow throug h HCV-142 and PCV-145 to offset increased RCS water volume. The problem is that this pressure is greatly above the setpoint for LTOPP operation and the RCS pressu re/temperature limitation curve.
- 8. Letdown demineralizer or RCS filter become clogged (Loss of LID flow)
For all of the above examples we have considered that demineralize r and filter Delta P - are constant. Over long periods of time the head loss across these device s increases. As the Delta P across the demineralizers and RC Filter increase, letdow n flow decreases. As letdown flow decreases, RCS pressure and therefore letdown pressure increase. As letdown pressure increases PCV-145 opens to restore pressu re. This action restores letdown flow to its original value. Since this genera lly occurs over a long period of time, the only perceptual change that the Operator would notice is a gradual opening of PCV-145 over a period of time. If the demineralize rs or RC Filter clog rapidly, as may occur during a CRUD burst or inadvertent valve closure
, letdown flow would initially decrease. As flow decreases RCS pressure and letdow n pressure will increase. PCV-145 will open. However, in this case since there is no flow path for letdown downstream of PCV-145, PCV-145 will have little or no effect on pressure.
If left with no action, RCS pressure will continue to rise until LTOP operati P on occurs. Relief CVC-209, located downstream of PCV-145 will operate to relieve pressure at 200 psig. However, it is doubtful if this pressure when combined with the head loss up stream is sufficiently low to prevent LTOPP operation. This same type of effect is seen if RHR-759 A & B and RHR-758 are closed simultaneous ly except that CVC-209 will not lift. LTOPP operation should handle this event.

- 9. Increase charging Flow For all of the above examples we have considered charging flow to be constant while other variables change. In this case we will increase charging pump speed to increase charging flow rate.
As speed on the running charging pump is increased, charging to the RCS increases. RCS pressure will initially increase, thus increasing letdown pressure. As letdown pressure increases, PCV-145 will open to restore pressure to its set value. The net effect steady state to steady state will be an increase in letdown flow equal to that of the increase in charging flow. Final RCS pressure will be slightly higher than initial due to the increase in head loss upstream of PCV-145 from higher letdown flow. This may be manually offset by opening HCV-142 slightly. If charging flow is being increased to increase letdown flow for purification purposes, one must remember to perform the evolution slowly to prevent a pressure excursion that would cause LTOPP operation. Summary: As described above, any action that changes the equilibrium status of water flow from the primary to CVCS or from CVCS to the primary will effect system pressure. Assuming no actuation of other components and no operator action, system response will restore flow rates to an equal amount. In the case where RCS temperatures are changed, letdown flow will change to offset the amount of water volume change occurring to maintain system equilibrium. In most cases, since the Operator is controlling a pressure band of only 325 psig to 400 psig, the system can not be left to its own devices to restore equilibrium conditions. Particularly in the area of rapidly changing situations, e.g. failure of PCV-145, etc. The Operator must take action using PCV-145 as necessary to maintain pressure within the required band until equilibrium conditions can be restored.

The correct answer is B. A. Incorrect The charging pump speed will rise to attempt to maintain PZR level, however, all the charging flow will be routed through the recirc line and PZR level will not be maintained. The VCT level will rise due to no change in letdown flow plus all the charging pump recirc flow entering the VCT through the seal return line. B. Correct All charging flow will be routed through the recirculation line and the AUTO charging pump speed controller will go to maximum due to lowering PZR level. Since all charging flow is through the recirculation line back into the VCT along with normal letdown flow, the VCT level will rise. C. Incorrect The charging pump speed will rise to attempt to maintain PZR level, however, all the charging flow will be routed through the recirc line and PZR level will not be maintained.

RCS pressure will rise due to the loss of letdown flow AND RCS temperature will lower due to the charging flow into the RCS. D. RCS pressure will lower due to PCV-145 attempting to maintain letdown pressure AND RCS temperature will lower due to the charging flow into the RCS. Answer is A A. Correct B.

C. Incorrect The first part of the distractor is correct. With no RHR flow RCS temperature will eventually rise due to a loss of cooling flow. D. Incorrect With the RCS solid and the RCPs secured, RCS pressure is maintained via the letdown flow through valve HCV-142, which has the driving head from the RHR Pump discharge pressure. With the RHR Pump tripped, the letdown flow will lower to zero GPM and PCV-145 will attempt to maintain the letdown pressure by closing, thus causing the pressure to rise.

RNP WOG BASIS/DIFFERENCES STEP STEP BASIS (Continued) 6 The subcooling criterion will ensure subcooled conditions and the RVLIS indication ensures the existence of an adequate vessel inventory such that core cooling is ensured. Refer to document SI TERMINATION/REINITIATION in the Generic Issues section of the Executive Volume. If either of the termination criteria are not satisfied, then SI is required to ensure core cooling and should not be terminated. Most likely the cold leg/downcomer low temperature condition is due to SI water mixing effects and an RCP restart is attempted. Of the transients considered in PTS, the SBLOCA transient may result in a condition whereby Safety Injection (SI) flow cannot be terminated. In Westinghouse Owners Group (WOG) reports OG-ilo and UG-117 titled Evaluation of Alternate RCP Trip Criteria and Justification of Manual RCP Trip for Small Break LOCA Events respectively, a range of SBLOCAs were identified where continued RCP operation or conversely untimely RCP restart could result in increased RCS inventory loss. The loss of additional inventory could ultimately result in deeper core uncovery transients which could in turn result in fuel cladding temperatures in excess of the plants design basis FSAR analysis result. Therefore, from a SBLOCA standpoint, RCP restart at an inopportune time could result in a degraded core cooling scenario. In WCAP-10319 titled A Generic Assessment of Significant Flaw Extension, Including Stagnant Loop Conditions, from Pressurized Thermal Shock of Reactor Vessels on Westinghouse Nuclear Power Plants, numerous transient analyses including those of SBLOCA have been analyzed without RCP restart. The results of the stagnant loop evaluation demonstrate that the total expected frequency of significant flaw extension in a typical W PWR reactor vessel due to PTS, including the contributions from stagnant loop SBLOCA transients, does not exceed the NRC required RTPTS screening value of 270°Ffor axial flaws. Therefore, based on analyses results, RCP restart is not required to meet the NRC PTS risk goal for a typical W plant. Therefore, an additional support condition, RCS subcooling, in addition to plant specific minimum support conditions is recommended to assure that no potential RCS inventory aggravation will occur due to RCP restart. An analysis of the effect of an RCP restart has been made to ensure the safety of this action relative to vessel integrity. For conservatism in the analysis the assumption was made that a small preexisting flaw had grown and arrested at 75 percent of wall thickness before RCP start. Starting an RCP was shown not to result in any further flaw propagation and loss of vessel integrity. For a case where a flaw has not grown prior to RCP start, the subsequent heat-up of the downcomer region will decrease the possibility D;ore,in:dertomixtDncingSIwaterDthewarmreactorcoolantwa ter and thereby decrease the likelihood of a PTS condition, an RCP restart is attempted. Whether an RCP is started or not, the next step performed (Step 24), if SI is still required, provides guidance on subsequent cooldown restrictions. FRP-P.1 Rev 15 Page 17 of 32

SD-023 WASTE DISPOSAL SYSTEM During operation, gas samples are drawn periodically from tanks discharging to the waste gas vent header as well as from the particular WGDT being filled at the time, and automatically analyzed to determine their H 2 and oxygen (02) content. The H 2 concentration will vary considerably from tank to tank. There should be no significant 02 content in any of the tanks. An alarm will warn the operator if any sample shows 3% by volume of 02. This allows time to take the required action before the combustible limit is reached. Another tank is placed in service while the operator locates and eliminates the source of 02. Radioactive depleted resins are sluiced from their respective ion exchange vessels into the SRST for temporary storage. To dispose of the resins, the system is lined up from the SRST to the spent resin fill connection in the shipping bay of the Radwaste Building. A flexible hose is connected to this fill connection at one end and the other is placed into a high integrity container (HIC) which is located in a shielded bunker. The SRST is then pressurized with low pressure N 2 and the resins are forced up to the drumming room and down to the Radwaste Building shipping bay, via installed piping, and down through the flexible hose into the HIC. Once full, the HIC can be transported overland to a non-company facility for ultimate disposal.

SD-059 PRESSURIZER SYSTEM 5.1.1 PZR Pressure Control (PZR-Figure 6 & PZR-Figure 7) Pressure control is accomplished via pressure controller PC-444A which is a Proportional
+/- Integral controller; the Derivative section has been defeated. This means the controller develops an output signal that is determined by how far pressure is from setpoint (Proportional) and how long the pressure has been away from setpoint (Integral).
PT-444 sends a pressure signal to PC-444A which is compared to the pressure setpoint developed by PC-444J which is controlled on the RTGB. PC-444J is a Hagan Manual-Auto station with a 10 turn pot capable of developing a control setpoint over the entire pressure range of PT-444. PT-444 ranges from 2500 to 1700 psig therefore PC-444J is capable of 800 psi range of control. For Example if the operator desires the controller to maintain normal pressure of 2235 psig the pot setting would be determined as follows: 2235 - 1700
- 10 = 6.69 on the 10 turn pot.
800 The output of PC-444J (setpoint signal) is sent to PC-444A to be compared to the actual pressure. PC-444A has a gain of 2 which effectively cuts in half the range of control of PZR pressure to 400 psi around the setpoint determined by PC-444J. The controller output is then directed to the proportional heaters, spray valves via controllers PC-444C and PC 444D, backup heaters, PZR PORV 456 and P1-458 and is displayed on the meter on PC 444J The components operated by PC-444A operate at a fixed deviation from setpoint or controller output as observed on the meter on PC-444J, no matter what setpoint is dialed in on PC-444J. For example the backup heaters are set to turn on 25 psi below set pressure. If set pressure is 2235 psig, their setpoint would be 2210 psig and the control output when they came on would be as follows: 2210-2035 .4375 or 43.75% demand 400 If the pot on PC-444J were then set at 6.25 this would give a set pressure of 2200 psig. When the output of PC-444A was at 43.75% the backup heaters would come on, pressure would be 2175 psig; 25 psi below set pressure. The setpoints normally listed for heater, spray, and PCV-456 setpoints are based on a set pressure of 2235 psig where PC-444J is normally set. As stated before, PC-444A is a Proportional +/- Integral controller, therefore controller output may not correspond exactly to the pressure monitored by the operator. If pressure is away from setpoint for an extended period of time the controller output may saturate while increasing its output trying to return pressure to setpoint.

SD-03 1 STEAM DUMP SYSTEM after reaching 45 0°F. Refer to Normal Operation. 4.2 Power Operated Relief Valve Controls The controls for the S/G PORVs are located in the Secondary Control Panel on the mezzanine level of the turbine building, with the exception of the automatic setpoint adjustment potentiometer, which is located on the RTGB. Their normal setpoint at power is 1035 psig, which is 30 psi above the pressure corresponding to the no load Tavg of 547°F. The setpoint can be changed by adjusting the potentiometer on the RTGB. This TO turn potentiometer controls over a 0 1500 psig range, with a setting of 10.0 D .5 ((. 4of corresponding to 0 psig. T controller is reverse acting. Instead of the potentiometer ncreasing setpoint with increased value, raising the setting decreases the setpoint at which the pressure will be controlled. When actual pressure increases to the setpoint, the PORV throttles open to relieve pressure. The controllers for each S/G PORV (PIC-477, PIC-487 and PIC-497), are adjusted at the secondary control panel. These controllers are pneumatic (with no electronics) and sense S/G pressure directly off the main steam lines upstream of the MSIVs. The directions for adjusting these controllers, which requires coordination between the Outside Auxiliary Operator and the Control Room, are contained in GP-002 and GP-003. The PORVs can only be controlled by the steam dump controller if the system is selected to Tavg mode, and then, only if a turbine trip has not occurred. 4.2.1 Switches There are three DEFEAT switches located at the Secondary Control Panel to allow manual control of the SIG PORVs from the Secondary Control Panel. After placing each switch in the DEFEAT position, the S/G PORV is controlled by selecting MANUAL on the transfer switch located inside the controller box and using the manual thumbwheel on the pressure controller. When in the DEFEAT position, automatic control from the RTGB is removed, as is the ability to place the S/G PORV under steam dump control in the event of a 50% load rejection without a turbine trip. Annunciators on APP-036 indicate remote indication of this action. Local manual operation of the PORVs is directed by EOPs and DSPs. 4.2.2 PORV Control Power Supplies Each RTGB mounted PORV controller is powered from a DC power supply located under RTGB. These DC power supplies are fed from instrument bus receptacles under the RTGB.

A design feature of the Pressurizer maintains a small amount of flow in the spray lines in order to A. maintain PZR spray nozzle full of subcooled water. B. maintain a small differential across the spray valves. C. maintain a constant firing rate to the Control Group heaters. D reduce thermal stresses in the spray piping and auxiliary spray connection. The correct answer is D. A. Incorrect The small amount of flow will not maintain the spray nozzle full of water. The small amount of water flow will eliminate the potential of thermal stresses if no water flow was present. B. Incorrect Although this flow does minimize the DIP across the spray valves this is not the reason for maintaining a continuous flow. C. Incorrect- A constant flow to the pressurizer could theoretically be established to maintain a constant firing rate. This flow rate is not known nor attempted to be established. D. Correct Exert from PZR System
Description:
A small continuous spray flow is provided, by means of the throttle valves (needle valves) which bypass the spray valves, to help ensure that the PZR liquid is in chemical equilibrium with the rest of the reactor coolant system (RCS) and to prevent thermal shock of the spray piping and the auxiliary spray connection.

SD-059 PRESSURIZER SYSTEM The control bank and both backup groups are operated from the RTGB. Power Supply: Control Bank - 480V BUS 2B Backup Group A 480V BUS 1 Backup Group B 480V BUS 2A The capability exists to power 150 kW of PZR heaters from Emergency Bus El and another 150 kW of heaters from emergency bus E2. This capability would be used during a loss of offsite power event to ensure proper RCS pressure control capability is maintained. The power supply must be manually transferred to the selected emergency bus following the loss of offsite power to ensure that the PZR temperature remains above the RCS temperature. Once the power supply is transferred, the heaters are controlled from the RTGB. If the PZR heaters are being powered from one of the emergency busses, they will automatically trip upon receipt of a Safety Injection Signal, to ensure the Emergency Diesel Generators are not overloaded by these non-safety related loads. This trip feature is enabled by the PZR Heater Arm switch in the E1/E2 room. PZR control group heaters can also be energized from the DS bus in the event of a loss of all AC power. 3.3 PZR Spray Lines Spray nozzle press drop at max. flow 15.0 psi at 70°F Continuous spray rate 1 gpm Pipe Diameter 4 in. Pipe Schedule 160 Design Pressure 2485 psig Design Temperature 650°F The PZR spray system is designed to pass a total flow of 600 gpm, 300 gpm per valve. The driving force of the spray water is a combination of the differential pressure between the hot and cold legs and the velocity head obtained by using a scoop in the reactor coolant piping. The spray nozzle, which is also protected with a thermal sleeve, is connected to the head of the PZR. It is designed to produce a narrow angle cone spray pattern that prevents cold water impingement on the PZR walls. The spray water is drawn from cold legs of loops B and C. The two lines tie together downstream of the control valves, form a ioop seal, and supply water through a single spray nozzle. The loop seal is provided to prevent the backup of steam into the piping when the spray valves are closed. A small continuous spray flow is provided, by means of the throttle valves (needle valves) which bypass the spray valves, to help ensure that the PZR liquid is in chemical equilibrium with the rest of the reactor coolant system (RCS) and to prevent thermal shock of the spray piping and the auxiliary spray connection.

Subsequently:
- lnverter B trips What impact will the failure have on the Reactor Protection System?
A Reactor will trip from Power Range High Flux (HIGH) setpoint. B. Reactor will trip from Power Range High Flux (LOW) setpoint. C. Reactor will NOT trip due to power being > P-10 permissive. D. Reactor will NOT trip due to N-42 being bypassed. Answer is A A. Correct B. Incorrect With N-42 being removed from service lAW OWP-01 1, the bistables for Overtemperature Delta T, Overpower Delta T and Power Range High Flux (HIGH) setpoint have been manually tripped. The bistable for Power Range High Flux (LOW) setpoint is NOT tripped due to power being above the P-lU permissive setpoint (10%). With the failure of lnverter B, Instrument Busses 3 and 8 will be de-energized and result in all of the bistables associated with Channel 3 tripping from the loss of power, thus the reactor will trip from the N-42 and N-43 high flux trip (HIGH) bistables being tripped. C. Incorrect Power being greater than the P-i 0 permissive does mean that the trip will not be caused by the Power Range High Flux (LOW) trip. D. Incorrect Although N-42 is bypassed the bistables for its associated trips are inserted when removing it from service. This changes the PRNI coincidence from 2 of 4tol of 3.

SD-006 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SYSTEM The RSPS receives redundant inputs that include process variables, nuclear measurements, and equipment operational status. These inputs are provided by the Nuclear Instrumentation System, Analog Process Instrumentation and Control System, the Electrical Power Distribution System, and the Turbine Control System. Inputs to the Reactor Trip System are developed by redundant coincidence logic within the Reactor Protection Relay Racks, while inputs to the ESFAS are developed via similar logic within the Safeguards Relay Racks. These inputs enable the Reactor Trip System and the ESFAS to perform their respective protective actions. 2.3 System Description The ESFAS consists of two completely independent trains (A and B). The trains receive DC power from A and B station batteries respectively. AC power is supplied by station battery backed instrument buses. Instrument Bus 7A supplies Train A and Instrument Bus 3 supplies Train B. Both trains have a complete set of matrices and both receive the same actuating signals. All of the circuits are redundant unless otherwise noted. The bistables generating the input signals, with the exception of the Hi-Hi Containment Pressure bistables, are designed to actuate upon a loss of power. 3.0 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION 3.1 ESFAS Cabinets Two trains of ESFAS cabinets are provided. They operate completely independent from each other. Switches, pushbuttons and status lights are provided for periodic on-line testing of the ESFAS circuits. The cabinets, located in the E-1 and E-2 room, are supplied power from independent 125 VDC supplies. The DC power for Train A is supplied from MCC A; Train B is supplied from MCC B. MCCA and B are located in the A/B Battery Room. This DC power is used to actuate components. Instrument Bus 7A supplies AC power to Train A while Instrument Bus 3 supplies AC power to Train B. The independent 12OVAC power from the Instrument buses supply the power for the interposing relays. The interposing relays, which are controlled by timer relays, control contacts in the control circuits for the components actuated by the Safeguard Sequencers. The interposing relays are auxiliary relays which were added as a result of a plant modification to correct a timer accuracy problem. The old relays time accuracy tolerance was excessive. The new timer relays require the interposing relays for proper operation because the new timer relays are not sized for DC power interruption. There is one interposing relay for each timer relay.

SD-024 CONTAINMENT SPRAY SYSTEM The Spray Additive System is a subsystem of the CSS that assists in reducing the iodine fission product inventory in the containment atmosphere resulting from a Design Basis Accident (DBA). Radioiodine in its various forms is the fission product of primary concern in the evaluation of a DBA. It is absorbed by the spray from the containment atmosphere. To enhance the iodine absorption capacity of the spray, the spray solution is adjusted to an alkaline pH that promotes iodine hydrolysis, in which iodine is converted to nonvolatile forms. Because of its stability when exposed to radiation and elevated temperature, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is the preferred spray additive. The NaOH added to the spray also ensures a pH value of between 8.5 and 11.0 of the solution recirculated from the containment sump. This pH band minimizes the evolution of iodine as well as the occurrence of chloride and caustic stress corrosion on mechanical systems and components. An eductor mixes the NaOH solution and the borated water and discharges the mixture into the spray pump suction line. The eductors are designed to ensure that the pH of the spray mixture is between 8.8 and 10.0 during the injection phase. 2.3 System Flow Paths Two motor-driven centrifugal pumps take a suction from the RWST and discharge chemically treated (NaOH) borated water to six (6) Spray rings inside containment. The SAT contents with NaOH solution is mixed with the RWST water at the spray pump suction through an eductor. The SAT discharge is throttled to 12 gpm. This solution is made available to help capture radioactive iodine because gaseous iodine is only slightly soluble in water. In a basic pH, iodine breaks down to form iodide and hypoiodite (12 + 20W I + 10 + H
- 0). Iodine is removed by breaking it down into ions that are more 2
soluble in water. In addition, this solution is mixed with the boric acid and the resultant pH helps to prevent chloride and caustic stress corrosion of stainless steel pipes & components following SI. The SAT is isolated when the tank is emptied. The spray piping headers are located in the upper dome of the containment to maximize the spray fall height. The spray nozzles closest to the containment liner are oriented in ward to ensure that spray effectiveness is not lost by spraying against the containment liner. Nozzle orientation and spacing is placed so that the volume covered is maximized. After the RWST empties (<9%), the CSS is realigned for the post-accident recirculation phase. (CSS-Figure-2) Following the injection phase, coolant collected in the containment sump is recirculated via the RNR (LHSI) pumps to the RCS and, if necessary, to the CSS.

- The plant is operating at 100% RTP. - Steam line break occurs on Steam Line A just outside the CV wall. - MSIV A fails to close when demanded.
Which ONE (1) of the following identifies the design feature that will ensure that all of the S/Cs do NOT blowdown through the faulted steam line? A. MSIV auto closure on High Steam Line Flow with Low Tave signal. B. MSIV auto closure on High Steam Line Delta P signal. C Check valves downstream of each MSIV. D. Check valves upstream of each MSIV. Answer is C A. Incorrect Check valves are installed on the downstream side of each of the MSIVs. These serve to ensure that back flow is prevented when a faulted steam line occurs on one steam line. MSIV auto closure signal does exist when 2 out of 3 steam lines have a high steam line flow signal, coincident with a Low Tave or Low Steam Line pressure, which provides protection for a steam break downstream of the MSIVs. B. Incorrect High Steam Line Delta P signal will provide a Safety Injection signal for 1 faulted S/G but does not provide any signal for closure of the MSIVs. C. Correct D. Incorrect The check valve design feature is correct but the location within the system is incorrect.

SD-006 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SYSTEM MSIVs. 4.1.4 Steam Line Pressure (ESF-Figure-1 & 3) Steam Line Pressure measurement is utilized for steam line break protection. Low steam line pressure (614 psig) in two of three main steam lines or Low Tavg (543°F) in two of three ioops, coincident with high steam line flow in two-of-three main steam lines, will initiate the Steam Line Isolation and Safety Injection signals. This is to protect against: a steam line break downstream of the main steam check valves, a feed line break, and/or an inadvertent opening of a SG safety. In addition, each steam line pressure measurement is compared with a main steam header pressure measurement to determine if a high steam line differential pressure exists. A coincidence of two-of-three steam line differential pressures (100 psid) in any one steam line, that is, steam line pressure lower than main steam header pressure, will initiate a Safety Injection signal. The steam header pressure is electronically limited to a minimum value of 585 psig. Therefore, this SI signal must be blocked before a plant cooldown is started to prevent SI actuation when S/G pressures drop below 485 psig(approximately 467°F). The steam line differential pressure circuit detects faults upstream of the MSIVs. Since the steam line check valves prevent reverse flow to the faulted S/G, excessive stearnjine differential pressure does not close th5JV[SIVs. 4.1.5 Containment Pressure (ESF-Figure-4 & 5) Containment Pressure measurement is utilized to initiate Emergency Core Cooling in response to a Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA), and to provide containment pressure protection for either a LOCA, a feed line break inside containment, or a Main Steam Line Break inside containment. Nine pressure comparators, with inputs from six pressure transmitters, are used as inputs to ESFAS. Three pressure comparators provide an input for Hi Containment Pressure at 4 psig increasing pressure. Six pressure comparators provide an input for Hi-Hi Containment Pressure at 10 psig. A coincidence of two of three Hi Containment Pressure (4 psig) will initiate a Safety Injection signal. A coincidence of two separate two-of-three Hi-Hi Containment Pressure signals (10 psig), i.e., two-of-three twice, will initiate the following signals: Steam Line Isolation, Containment Spray Actuation Containment Isolation Phase B Safety Injection Signal(This SI is not credited and is blocked by the Tavg Block) ESF Page 13 of 40 Revision 11 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

- 4. Steam Line Isolation Isolation of the main steam lines provides protection in the event of an SLB inside or outside containment.
Rapid isolation of the steam lines will limit the steam break accident to the blowdown from one SG. at most. For an SLB upstream of the main steam isolation valves (MSIVs), inside or outside of containment, closure of the MSIVs limits the accident to the blowdown from only the affected SG. For an SLB downstream of the MSIVs, closure of the MSIVs terminates the accident as soon as the steam lines depressuri ze.
- a. Steam Line IsolationManual Initiation Manual initiation of Steam Line Isolation can be accomplished from the control room. There are three pushbuttons in the control room, one for each steam line. Each pushbutton actuates both trains of Steam Line Isolation for its corresponding MSIV. The LCO requires one channel per line to be OPERABLE.

This could result in the release of significant quantities of energy and cause a cooldown of the primary system. The Steam Line Isolation Function is required in MODES 2 and 3 unless all MSIVs are closed. In MODES 4, 5, and 6, there is insufficient energy in the RCS and SGs to experience an SLB or other accident releasing significant quantities of energy.
- c. Steam Line IsolationContainment PressureHigh This Function actuates closure of the MSIVs in the event of a LOCA or an SLB inside containment to maintain at least one unfaulted SG as a heat sink for the reactor, and to limit the mass and energy release to containment. Actuation logic is discussed under Containment SprayContainment Pressure, Function 2.c.
Containment Pressure High High must be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2. and 3, when there is sufficient energy in the primary and secondary side to pressurize the containment following a pipe break. This would cause a significant increase in the containment pressure, thus allowing detection and closure of the MSIVs. The Steam Line Isolation Function remains OPERABLE in MODES 2 and 3 unless all MSIVs are closed. In MODES 4. 5, and 6, there is not enough energy in the primary and secondary sides to pressurize the containment to the Containment PressureHigh High setpoint.

SD-027 Feedwater System The auto/manual selector switch on the side of the Bailey positioner at the feedwater regulating valves cannot be used for local pneumatic valve control. If manual is selected, the valve will fail closed. A wide-range level channel, calibrated for no-load conditions, aids manual level control from hot shutdown to cold shutdown. This channel consists of a recorder, high and low level alarms (only function when steam generator pressure is less than 614 psig), and indicators. Automatic pressure-temperature compensation is not necessary. Besides the main feedwater regulating valve (FCV-478, -488, or -498), for each steam generator there is a bypass valve (FCV-479, -489, or -499) which is intended to provide manual feedwater flowrate control at low loads. During normal at power operation of the plant the bypass valve is closed. The bypass valve operation is controlled from the RTGB controller station which provides manual positioning of the valve. The opening of the bypass valve is prevented in the presence of either safety injection or high steam generator water level. The auto/manual selector switch on the side of the Bailey positioner at the feedwater regulating bypass valves can be used for local pneumatic control. The main feedwater regulating valves and bypasses are operated by utilizing the instrument air system pressure through controllers to properly position the valves. The main feedwater regulating valves and the bypass regulating valves have OPEN and CLOSED light indications. These position indication lights are located on the RTGB adjacent to their respective controllers. The main feedwater regulating valves rely on motor operated block valves if needed to isolate them from the main feedwater pump discharge. These valves are controlled from the RTGB and supplied power from: FW-V2-6A for A steam generator from MCC-5, FW-V2-6B for B steam generator from MCC-6, and FW-V2-6C for C steam generator from MCC-6. 5.1.2 Steam Generator Water Level Control Steam generator level is programmed for operation. The normal no load level is 39% and to 52% from 0% to 20% power. From 20% to 100% power the The three-element feedwater control system compares actual steam generator level to the program level derived from turbine first stage pressure (for power level, selected from either PT-446 or PT-447) and any difference between the signals is the level error.

SD-036 HVAC SYSTEM units, HVE-14 (Fan Room B), HVE-15 (Fan Room A) and HVE-15A. The discharge of HVE-15 and HVE-15A (only one can be run at a time) is directed to the plant stack. The discharge duct of HVE-14 contains an isokinetic probe for pulling a sample of exhaust air through a particulate and iodine sampler assembly. This air then returns back to the duct. A high range noble gas monitor (R-30) is placed on the outside of the duct looking in through the duct. The discharge ducts of HVE-14 and HVE-15 are monitored by low range gas monitors (R-20 and R-2 1, respectively). The R-20 monitor alarms if air becomes unsuitable for exhaust. The R-21 alarms and trips fan HVE-15 and also the supply fan HVS-4 if air becomes unsuitable for exhaust. Detailed information on the function and operation of radiation monitors may be found in SD-019, Radiation Monitoring System. The fan rooms are ventilated through motor operated dampers by HVE-20 (Fan Room B) and HVE-21 (Fan Room A). HVE-14, 15 and 15A are powered from PP No. 22. 2.4.2 Control Room (See Figures 8, 9, 14, 15 and 16) The Control Room HVAC System is designed with an air handling unit, an air cleaning unit, and a kitchen/toilet exhaust unit to supply conditioned air to and exhaust spent air from the Control Room envelope. This system is designed to operate in either of three modes depending on external environmental conditions which could affect the habitability of the Control Room. However, under all modes of operation the temperature in the envelope will be controlled between 70°F and 77°F dry-bulb, inclusive. The air handling unit (AHU) is comprised of a stainless steel unit housing, one average efficiency prefilter bank and two redundant, 100% capacity cooling coils. During all modes of operation, the AHU operates under positive pressure by either of two redundant, 100% capacity centrifugal fans, HVA-1A and HVA-1B. Each of the AHU cooling coils is served by its respective service water cooled condensing unit, WCCU-1A and WCCU-1B. Control Room heating is provided by an electric air duct heater, EDH-5, mounted in the supply duct run located in the Control Room vestibule area. The air cleaning unit (ACU) is comprised of a stainless steel filtration unit housing, one average efficiency prefilter bank, one pre-HEPA (high efficiency particulate air) filter bank, one permanently installed gasketless carbon adsorber bank of a 2-inch bed depth, and one post-HEPA filter bank.

SD-038 DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The DC power system consists of five 125V batteries, each with its own battery charger(s) and DC bus. The five batteries are A, B, C, DS System and DSDG. Two of the batteries, A & B, are safety-related. The battery chargers supply the normal DC loads as well as maintaining each battery fully charged. Each charger has the capacity to supply all normal DC loads and maintain the battery fully charged. For each safety-related station battery, there are two safety-related battery chargers. One battery charger supplies the normal DC loads while the other provides 100% back-up capability. Each of the two safety-related station batteries is sized to carry its expected shutdown loads following a design basis accident with no battery chargers available for a period of 1 hour without battery terminal voltage falling below minimum allowable voltage. Each of the four safety-related chargers has been sized to charge its partially discharged battery within 24 hours while carrying its normal load. The DC subsystems associated with the Dedicated Shutdown system and DSDG are described in SD-056, Dedicated Shutdown Diesel Generator 2.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION 2.1 System Purpose The purpose of the DC distribution system is to supply control power for nearly all of the electrical system, (an exception is 48OVAC Bus 5, which gets control power from a local control power transformer), supply emergency lighting in the event AC power is lost, and to supply electrical power for actuation of solenoid operated valves, reactor protection system relays, and instrument bus inverters A & B. 2.2 System Description (see DC-FIGURE-14) The 125 volt DC electrical system consists of five independent busses each supplied by a battery and battery charger. Batteries A and B provide power for vital instruments, for control and for emergency lighting for one hour following a simultaneous Loss of Coolant Accident and a loss of all AC power without battery terminal voltage falling below I IOV for A battery and 106.8V for B battery. Battery C provides non-safety related power to the emergency bearing oil pump and the air side seal oil backup pump, and Power Panel C. DC Page 6 of 18 Revision 6 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

RNP DIFFERENCES/REASONS Supplement G is used for isolating S/Gs. The following differences have been applied for the S/G level control step:
- 1. The EPP does not include the adverse containment values as requested by the ERG due to the amount of uncertainties applied to the WR level instrum ent. The calculation resulted in an unacceptable range of level control. Neither the RNP license basis for SBO, nor the WOG ERG scope for ECA-0.0, include events that would result in adverse containment values, therefore elimination of the adverse values does not alter the ERG intent of the step or procedure.
- 2. The EPP uses the upper level tap as the analytical value for the upper range of the level control band. The lower range also is slightly lower than that specified by the ERG. Both of these are due to the large amount of uncertanties associated with the WR level which did not allow an adequate level control band. Many of the ERGs use this upper tap as a reference for preventing S/G overfill which is the reason for establishing the level control band.
- 3. The RNP step has a decision block for power of MCC-5. Once MCC-5 is energized local control of S/G level is no longer required for A and C S/Gs.
B is fed to the upper level then isolated locally. The operator is directed to secure feeding and steaming B S/G so that it will remain relatively stable. A and C are steame d in the subsequent steps since the operator will have control of the AFW isolation valves from these S/Gs. Based on the above, these differences in the control band setpoin ts and control of level are not a safety significant deviation. SSD DETERMINATION This is an SSD per criterion 5, 8, and 10. 36 14 WOG BASIS Tocons:rvedc power supply by shedding non-essential dc loads from the dc Following loss of all ac power, the station batteries are the only source of electrical power. The station batteries supply the dc busses and the ac vital instrum ent busses. Since ac emergency power is not available to charge the station batteries, battery power supply must be conserved to permit monitoring and control of the plant until ac power can be restored. A plant specific procedure should be prepared to prioritize the sheddi ng of dc loads in order to conserve and prolong the station battery power supply. The plant specific evaluation should consider shedding of equipment loads from the dc busses and of instrumentation from the ac vital busses. The intent of load shedding is to remove all large non-essential loads as soon as practical, consistent with preventing damage to plant equipment. Consideration should be given to the priority of shedding additional loads in case ac power cannot be restored within the projected life of the station batteries. Consideration should also be given to securing a portable diesel powered battery charger to ensure dc power availab ility. Since the remaining battery life cannot be monitored from the control room, Step 14 requires personnel to be dispatched to locally monitor the dc power supply
. This is intended to provide the operator information on remaining battery life and the need to shed additional dc loads. The plant specific procedure should be structured to ensure comm unications with the control room operator to ensure his knowledge of dc power status.
RNP DIFFERENCES/REASONS The EPP directs load shedding using an Attachment. It is expect ed that Battery Charger A will be restored, as described earlier. The ERG does not make previsi on for either Battery Charger being reenergized. The step has been flagged as continuous action due to the time delay in turbine coast-down.

Diesel Fuel Oil and Starting Air B 3.8.3 B 3.8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS B 3.8.3 Diesel Fuel Oil and Starting Air BASES BACKGROUND The diesel generators (DG) are provided with a fuel oil storage capacity sufficient to operate one diesel for a period of 7 days while the DG is supplying full load. This onsite fuel oil capacity is sufficient to operate the DGs for longer than the time to replenish the onsite supply from outside sources. A 275 gallon day tank is located at each of the units. The level in the day tanks is maintained by two electric motor driven transfer pumps taking suction on the 25,000 gallon storage tank. A minimum of 34.000 gallons of fuel oil is maintained on site. This is sufficient to operate one diesel at full load for seven days. Additional supplies of diesel oil are available in the Hartsville area and from port terminals at Charleston, SC, Wilmington, NC, Fayetteville, NC and Raleigh, NC. Ample trucking facilities exist to assure deliveries to the site within eight hours. Diesel fuel is also available from the internal combustion turbine diesel fuel oil storage tanks (approximately 95,000 gallon total capacity) located at the site and connections are provided for fuel oil transferral to the Unit 2 diesel fuel oil storage tank. For proper operatioii of the standby DGs, it is necessary to ensure the proper quality of the fuel oil. The Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Program provides appropriate testing requirements for DG fuel oil. The fuel oil properties governed by these SRs are the water and sediment content, cloud point, viscosity, and specific gravity (or API

Diesel Fuel Oil and Starting Air B 3.8.3 BASES (continued) APPLICABLE The initial conditions of Design Basis Accident (DBA) and SAFETY ANALYSES transient analyses in the UFSAR, Chapter 6 (Ref. 1), and in the UFSAR, Chapter 15 (Ref. 2), assume Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) systems are OPERABLE. The DGs are designed to provide sufficient capacity, capability, redundancy, and reliability to ensure the availability of necessary power to ESF systems so that fuel, Reactor Coolant System and containment design limits are not exceeded. These limits are discussed in more detail in the Bases for Section 3.2, Power Distribution Limits; Section 3.4, Reactor Coolant System (RCS); and Section 3.6, Containment Systems. Since diesel fuel oil and the air start subsystem support the operation of the standby AC power sources, they satisfy Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement. LCO Stored diesel fuel oil is required to have sufficient supply for 7 days of full load operation. It is also required to meet specific standards for quality. This requirement, in conjunction with an ability to obtain replacement supplies within 7 days, supports the availability of DGs required to shut down the reactor and to maintain it in a safe condition for an anticipated operational occurrence (AOO) or a postulated DBA with loss of offsite power. DG day tank fuel requirements, as well as transfer capability from the storage tank to the day tank, are addressed in LCO 3.8.1, AC SourcesOperating, and LCO 3.8.2, AC Sources Shutdown. The starting air system is required to have a minimum capacity for eight successive DG start attempts without recharging the air start receivers. APPLICABILITY The AC sources ([CO 3.8.1 and [CO 3.8.2) are required to ensure the availability of the required power to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition after an AOO or a postulated DBA. Since stored diesel fuel oil, and the starting air subsystem support LCO 3.8.1 and [CO 3.8.2, stored diesel fuel oil and starting air are (continued) HBRSEP Unit No. 2 B 3.8-33 Revision No. 0
Diesel Fuel Oil and Starting Air B 3.8.3 BASES APPLICABILITY required to be within limits when the associated DG is (continued) required to be OPERABLE. ACTIONS The ACTIONS Table is modified by a Note indicating that separate Condition entry is allowed for each DG. This is acceptable. since the Required Actions for each Condition provide appropriate compensatory actions for each inoperable OG subsystem. Complying with the Required Actions for one inoperable DG subsystem may allow for continued operation. and subsequent inoperable DG subsystem(s) are governed by separate Condition entry and application of associated Required Actions. A.1 and B.1 In these Conditions, the 7 day fuel oil supply for a DG is not available. However, the Condition is restricted to fuel oil level reductions that maintain at least a 6 day supply. These circumstances may be caused by events, such as full load operation required after an inadvertent start while at minimum required level, or feed and bleed operations, which may be necessitated by increasing particulate levels or any number of other oil quality degradations. This restriction allows sufficient time for obtaining the requisite replacement volume and performing the analyses required prior to addition of fuel oil to the Unit 2 DG fuel oil tank. A period of 48 hours is considered sufficient to complete restoration of the required level prior to declaring the DGs inoperable. This period is acceptable based on the remaining capacity (> 6 days), the fact that procedures will be initiated to obtain replenishment, and the low probability of an event during this brief period. C. With the new fuel oil properties defined in the Bases for SR 3.8.3.2 not within the required limits, a period of 30 days is allowed for restoring the stored fuel oil properties. This period provides sufficient time to test the stored fuel oil to determine that the new fuel oil, when mixed with previously stored fuel oil remains acceptable, or to restore the stored fuel oil properties. This restoration (continued) HBRSEP Unit No. 2 B 3.8-34 Revision No. 0
Diesel Fuel Oil and Starting Air B 3.8.3 BASES ACTIONS C.1 (continued) may involve feed and bleed procedures, filtering, or combinations of these procedures. Even if a DG start and load was required during this time interval and the fuel oil properties were outside limits, there is a high likelihood that the DG would still be capable of performing its intended function. D.1 With starting air receiver pressure < 210 psig, sufficient capacity for eight successive DG start attempts does not exist. However, as long as the receiver pressure is
> 100 psig, there is adequate capacity for at least one start attempt, and the OG can be considered OPERABLE while the air receiver pressure is restored to the required limit.
A period of 48 hours is considered sufficient to complete restoration to the required pressure prior to declaring the DG inoperable. This period is acceptable based on the remaining air start capacity, the fact that most DG starts are accomplished on the first attempt, and the low probability of an event during this brief period. E.1 With a Required Action and associated Completion Time not met, or one or more DGs fuel oil, or starting air subsystem not within limits for reasons other than addressed by Conditions A through D, the associated DG5 may be incapable of performing its intended function and must be immediately declared inoperable. SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.3.1 REQU I REM ENTS This SR provides verification that there is an adequate inventory of fuel oil in the storage tanks to support one DGs operation for 1 days at full load. The 7 day period is sufficient time to place the unit in a safe shutdown condition and to bring in replenishment fuel from an offsite location. (conti nued) HBRSEP Unit No. 2 B :3.8-35 Revision No. 0

SD-004 SERVICE WATER SYSTEM 3.2 Sw North and South Header Normally three SW Pumps are running supplying full system needs through two headers, each capable of passing full system flow. Four valves are installed to cross connect SW Pump discharge (V6-12B & C) and to isolate the North or South SW Header (V6-12A & D). These valves are normally open and are controlled at the RTGB. Since the operation of these valves can be lost due to flooding, APP-008 windows D7, D8, E7, and E8 provide high water annunciation for the SW pits. Operators use these alarms in determining if and when these valves should be configured for safe shutdown operation. Pressure transmitters (PT-1616 and 1684) provide RTGB indication and alarm capability for the North and South headers, respectively. Header pressures should be maintained between 40 to 50 psig with less than four SW pumps operating, and between 40 to 55 psig with four pumps operating. Indicated SW Header pressure on these gauges is approximately three psig less than SW Pump discharge ressure at the pumps. The SW North and South Headers also supply water to the Turbine Building Header. The North Header supplies through Valve V6-16A and the South Header supplies through Valve V6-16B. In addition, Valve V6-16C is used to completely isolate the North and South Header from the Turbine Building Header. The normal power supply of Valve V6-16C is MCC-10. If MCC-10 loses its power V6-16C motor control will automatically switch to MCC-9 as the power supply. If a sustained low SW Header pressure occurs in coincidence with a Turbine Trip Signal all three valves will automatically close; with an alarm provided on APP-008. (See SW-Figure 4) The North SW Header can be further isolated by removing the spacer plate downstream of V6-12D and substituting a blank plate. The South Header does not currently have this function. Plant Modification (ESR 96-00707) will install this feature in the South Header at a later date. During Refueling Outage (RFO) 19, a portion of the North SW Header underground piping was replaced with above ground piping. This replacement was due to several minor leaks in this portion of the SW System. It is believed that a combination of failure of the external pipe coating, lack of cathodic protection, and poor installation techniques contributed to these piping failures. The above ground piping is enclosed in a Class I structure capable of protecting against a loss of function during a design basis tornado. In addition to the pipe replacement, this modification added a flow venturi (FE-1752), and moved the North SW Header Supply Check Valve (SW-541) and pressure instrumentation (PT-1616, PSL-1616A and B) to outside the Auxiliary Building in the Class I enclosure.

SD-004 ERVICE WATER SYSTEM Upon a Blackout signal, all SW Pumps and SW Booster Pumps A and B will automatically start. (ESR 97-00520) SWBP suction pressure must be> 30 psi for the booster pump to start. Upon an 5 signal (safety injection actuation), all SW Pumps and Booster Pumps A and B will automatically start regardless of suction Electrical power for the four SW Pumps will be supplied from the onsite diesel generators in the event of loss of all offsite power. For this condition, the SW System is designed to supply cooling water to only the required emergency systems. Under the conditions of a concurrent loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) and loss of offsite power, any two of four pumps using the emergency diesel power are capable of supplying the required cooling capacity. Following a simultaneous LOCA and loss of offsite power, the cooling water requirements for all four fan cooling units and the other essential loads can be supplied by any two of the four SW Pumps during the injection and long term recirculation phase of the Safety Injection System. The Emergency Operating Procedures provide instructions for monitoring and verification of required SW System operation during plant accidents and security events. 6.4 Probabilistic Safety Assessment Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) is an analytical technique for estimating in a quantitative manner the risk the plant presents to the health and safety of the public. The technique employs event trees to model postulated accident progression and fault trees to model accident mitigating system. The PSA model estimates the core damage, estimated as an annual frequency. The SW Pumps, Booster Pumps, North and South Headers, MOVs, alternate cooling valve alignments to specific components, and the alternate supply capability to supply makeup to the Condensate Storage Tank are important components in the PSA in regards to risk reduction. They are relied upon to mitigate accident scenarios by providing the necessary cooling for the RCS and secondary plant. SW Page 24 of 45 Revision 14 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

SD-017 INSTRUMENT AND STATION AIR SYSTEM administrative barrier to introducing nitrogen into the IA System. This precaution is necessary since the IA System can supply breathing air to supplied-air respirator. This interconnection is to be used in the event of a dedicated shutdown emergency, where IA is not available for steam generator power operated relief valve operation and nitrogen is available to the steam dump nitrogen accumulator. 3.0 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION 3.1 IA A & B Compressor Package The A & B IACs are 200 scfm, Ingersoll Rand, non-lubricated, single stage reciprocating, 100 psig compressors. The water jackets for cylinder cooling are supplied by SW and limits air discharge temperature to 4 15°F. The aftercoolers are shell and tube heat exchangers with SW on the shell side and will reduce the air outlet temperature to 100°F. Air temperature at the receiver discharge is maintained at about 110°F by controlling the SW flow to the compressor water jackets and the aftercoolers. SW is automatically secured when the compressor is stopped, via a solenoid valve. This prevents condensation buildup in the cylinder. The compressors and receiver are equipped with internal baffles, traps, and relief valves. The compressors are powered __, from MCC-5 for IAC A and MCC-6 for IAC B. The compressors discharge into a 150 cubic foot vertical air receiver, located in the Auxiliary Building hallway. The air dryers have a capacity of 200 scfm each, and are of the refrigeration type, which will maintain air dew point of minus 10°F. NOTE: Design dew point for Refrigerant type dryers is 40 degrees at 100°F with 100% Humidity, can be lower with lower ambient temperature or lower humidity. The power supplies for the Air Dryers are MCC-9 for IA Dryer A and MCC-1 0 for IA Dryer B. 3.2 IAD Compressor and Dryer Package IAC D will alternate with the PAC to supply the IA System throughout the plant. JAC D is an Atlas Copco model ZT9O-110, rotary screw type compressor, rated at 110 psig. The oil free rotary compressor is fully integrated in a sound insulated package. The compressor is completely air cooled which eliminates a costly water cooled system. Discharge cooling air is ducted out of the compressor enclosure area. The duct is routed up to the ceiling, penetrating the roof and discharges to the outside. Twin rotors in the compression elements are of asymmetric screw type fully synchronized and precision engineered. No rotor-to-rotor or rotor-to-casing contact occurs thereby totally eliminating the need for oil lubrication in the rotor chamber. Power supply for the IAC D package is from MCC-13. The package includes the compressor, the cooling fan, the dryer rotating motor and the dryer cooling fan. MCC-l3, which is located above the AIR Page 9 of 37 Revision 12 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-017 INSTRUMENT AND STATION AIR SYSTEM condensate polisher control room, is supplied from 480V Bus 4. Freeze protection for the package is provided by FPP-31, circuit 12 which is supplied from PP-29, circuit 12. D IA Dryer is an Atlas Copco model MD200, adsorption type desiccant dryer, rated at 506 scfm (at 14.5 psi & 68°F). The pressure vessel incorporates a rotating drum with permanently impregnated desiccant that is in a honeycomb pattern. This eliminates dusting and removes all the moisture through adsorption. The drum only rotates when the compressor is loaded so that hot regeneration air is available. The maximum speed of the drum is 6 revolutions per hour, driven through a worm gear. The Dryer operates with continuous regeneration, utilizing air that bypassed the compressor aftercooler. This air is still hot and unsaturated and is used to regenerate the drum by evaporating the moisture adsorbed through the drying process. The moisture saturated regeneration air is cooled in the regeneration cooler before flowing into the ejector and rejoining the main air stream assuring all the air that is compressed to be used in the IA system. This process eliminates the need for electric heaters and the need to purge during regeneration which results in power savings. The desiccant dryer is efficient in removing all moisture (93% more water than a refrigerated dryer) and is capable of design dew points of minus 22°F. The lower dew point for compressed air will prevent condensation and buildup of foreign material in air operated valves. 3.3 PAC Package The PAC and the PAC dryer is also a Atlas Copco unit. Except for the rating, it is identical to IAC D. The PAC is a Atlas Copco ZT-55 compressor and can provide 284 scfm at 110 psig or roughly 300 scfm at 100 psig. This is more than adequate capacity for normal conditions. The PAC is powered from MCC-17. Discharge cooling air is ducted out of the compressor enclosure area, up to the ceiling, penetrating the roof and discharges to the outside. The compressor has a moisture separator after the second stage and at the dryer that removes condensate from the compressed air. Drain lines will be routed from the drain traps to the floor drain next to D IAC. All drain traps where water will collect will be freeze protected. Freeze protection is provided by FPP-26, circuit 15 (which is fed from MCC-2). The Atlas Copco MD-100 is a regenerative type desiccant dryer and has a capacity of 327 scfm. It will provide a dew point less than 0 °F under any conditions, which more than meets the 32 °F design requirement. Per the vendor literature no special aflerfilter is needed with the desiccant dryer because the drying material does not generate dust. The AIR Page 10 of 37 Revision 12 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-017 INSTRUMENT AND STATION AIR SYSTEM Air Dryer is powered from MCC-17. 3.4 SAC Package The SAC is a Ingersoll Rand, 400 scfm single stage reciprocating, 100 psig, oil lubricated type compressor. The water jackets for cylinder cooling are cooled by SW. The aftercooler is a shell and tube type heat exchanger with SW on the shell side. Cooling water is automatically secured when the compressor is stopped, via a solenoid valve. This prevents condensation buildup in the cylinder. The SAC is powered from 480V Bus 2B. The compressor discharges to a 150 cubic foot, vertical air receiver. 3.5 Carbon Monoxide (CO) Monitor and Breathing Air The CO monitor samples IA that is used for breathing air. For protection of personnel this air is monitored for CO by AE-1702. A local (Aux. Bldg. Hallway) alarm light and horn will sound if the concentration reaches approximately 10 ppm. This monitor is calibrated by SIC-033. There is an MSA air distribution manifold which is used by Radiation Control to supply breathing air to workers using air-supplied respirators. The MSA device contains a breathing air manifold with a regulator. 4.0 INSTRUMENTATION 4.1 IAC A & B Instruments See Attachment 10.2 4.2 PAC Controls and Indication See Attachment 10.3 4.3 IAC D Instruments See Attachment 10.4 4.4 SAC Instruments See Attachment 10.4 4.5 Carbon Monoxide Monitor AIR Page 11 of 37 Revision 12 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

Which ONE (1) of the following identifies the action necessary to clear the alarm lAW OP-921, Containment Air Handling? A. Stop HVH-1 and HVH-3 to raise CV pressure gradually. B. Start CV Purge to equalize the CV pressure with atmospheric pressure. C Open Containment Vacuum Relief Valves V12-12 and V12-13 until pressure is restored. D. Open Containment Pressure Relief Valves Vi 2-10 and Vi 2-11 until pressure is restored. The correct answer is C. A: Incorrect. Stopping HVH-1 and HVH-3 would allow the CV temperature and pressure to rise but is not the method designed to relieve the negative pressure in the CV. B: Incorrect. OP-921 requires that CV pressure be less than 0.1 psig to start a CV Purge. Although this condition is satisfied, and the CV Purge would equalize the CV pressure with atmospheric pressure, this is not the method designed to correct this condition. C: Correct. Opening the CV Vacuum Relief valves will correct a negative pressure in the CV. D: Incorrect. Opening the CV Pressure Relief valves is not the proper method of relieving a negative pressure in the CV. OP-92i allows the use of the CV Vacuum Relief valves to relief a positive pressure in the CV if the CV Pressure Relief valves are inoperable. This makes this choice plausible.

Bank C BankD A 217 steps 89 steps B. 223 steps 95 steps C. 215 steps 95 steps D. 209 steps 89 steps The correct answer is A. A. Correct. 10 inches equates to 16 steps. Control Bank D will step in 16 steps to 89 steps. Control Bank C will not begin stepping in until Control Bank D is at 97 steps. Control Bank C will therefore only step in 8 steps to a final position of 217 steps. B. Incorrect This distractor incorrectly correlates 10 inches of IRPI to 10 steps on the Group Step Counters. The distractor for Bank C has to correct overlap assuming 10 steps on Bank D. C. Incorrect This distractor incorrectly correlates 10 inches of IRPI to 10 steps on the Group Step Counters. The distractor for Bank C does not account for the proper overlap and incorrectly assumes that the Bank C rods will move once Bank D rods begin to insert. D.

SD-007 ROD CONTROL SYSTEM Banks A and B, the Bank Overlap unit directs the Master Cycler to pulse slave cyclers 1 AC and 1 BD simultaneously at Master Cycler count zero and Slave Cyclers 2 AC and 2 BD simultaneously at count three. In addition, the Bank Overlap unit directs Power Cabinet 1 AC to select the Control Bank A Group 1 mechanism, Power Cabinet 2 AC to select the Control Bank A Group 2 mechanisms, Power Cabinet 1 BD to select the Control Bank B Group I mechanisms, and Power Cabinet 2 BD to select the Control Bank B Group 2 mechanisms. During the overlap condition, the Group I mechanisms of Control Banks A and B move simultaneously, the Group 2 mechanisms of Control Banks A and B move simultaneously. The six overlap setpoints (SI, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6) are preset by the six digital thumbwheeL switches located in the rod control equipment (logic cabinet). This sequence provides a 97 step overlap between banks. Sl (Start B with A) 128 Steps S2 (Stop A) 225 Steps S3 (Start C with B) 256 Steps S4 (Stop B) 353 Steps S5 (Start D with C) 384 Steps S6 (Stop C) 481 Steps Selection of individual banks for motion out of the normal programmed sequence is accomplished with the Bank Selector Switch through the Bank Overlap Unit. When an individual bank is selected, the counting feature of the Bank Overlap Unit is locked out. Before the system is put back into overlapped bank Qperation by selecting MANUAL or AUTOMATIC on the Bank Selector Switch, the banks must be manually returned to the position held before the individual banks were moved. Individual bank motion is not used for normal operation except for mechanism testing, special physics testing, and recovery of dropped rods. 3.5.5 Failure and Alarm Circuits The Logic Cabinet circuit detects two types of alarms: urgent and non-urgent. Each of these are further subdivided into two subclasses of circuits: those devoted to detecting internal alarm conditions, and those devoted to detecting external Power Cabinet alarm conditions. 3.5.5.1 Urgent Alarm Logic Cabinet A Logic Cabinet urgent alarm performs the following functions:
- Inhibits all rod motion
- Energizes a red light at the Logic Cabinet.

SD-007 ROD CONTROL SYSTEM removal of the command signal, all rod motion stops. However, a group still in sequential motion will complete its entire step before halting. Reversal of direction is programmed such that the last group which ceased motion will be the first to move in the new direction. Staggered stepping of the groups within banks is controlled by the Master Cycler. 5.5.8 Bank Overlap The rod program requires overlapping of control banks. Control Bank A is withdrawn until it reaches a preset position above the center of the core. At this point, Control Bank B starts moving out in synchronism with Bank A. Control Bank A stops when it reaches the top of the core and Bank B continues until it reaches a preset position above the center of the core. At this point, Bank C moves out in synchronism with Bank B. Bank B motion then stops and Bank C sequencing continues until it reaches a preset position above the center of the core where Bank D engagement occurs. Banks C and D are withdrawn together until Bank C reaches the top of the core. Bank D withdrawal then continues as required for control. In the overlap region, Group 1 rods of each of the two overlapped banks are stepped simultaneously; similarly, the Group 2 rods of the two overlapped banks are stepped simultaneously. 5.6 Protection 5.6.1 Control Rod Insertion Monitor The control rod group insertion limits are calculated as a linear function of power and reactor coolant average temperature. An insertion limit monitor with two setpoints is provided for each control bank. The Low alarm alerts the operator of an approach to a reduced shutdown reactivity situation requiring boron addition by following procedures with the CVCS. If the actuation of the Low-Low alarm occurs, the operator should take immediate action to add boron to the system. (Refer to RDCNT Figure-24) 5.6.2 Interlocks The rod control group used for automatic control is interlocked with measurements of turbine-generator load to prevent automatic control rod withdrawal below 15 percent of nominal power. The manual and automatic controls are further interlocked with measurements of nuclear flux, T, and rod drop indication to prevent approach to an overpower condition. These are the rod stop interlocks which are explained in the next section. The operator is able to select any single bank of rods for manual operation. This is accomplished with a multiposition switch so that he may not select more than one bank. He may also select automatic or manual reactor control, in either case, however, the RDCNT Page 38 of 51 Revision 8 INFORMATION USE ONLY
SD-009 INDIVIDUAL ROD POSTION INDICATION SYSTEM (P-A) Converter Drawer. The P-A could require an adjustment JAW AOP-001 in the event of a dropped or mis-aligned control rod. 4.2 System Indication (Refer to RPI-Figure-23 & 24) The following are indicators for monitoring system operation:
- A rod position indicator is located on the RTGB for each full length rod. The indicators are arranged in banks and groups and are calibrated to indicate inches or steps of rod height from 0 to 144 inches or 0 to 225 steps. (indicator actually reads 0 to 250_steps)
- A red rod bottom LED indicator is provided for each full length rod. This light is located directly below the associated indicator, and indicates that the control rod is less than 12.5 (20 steps) from the bottom of the core.
4.2.1 RTGB Rod Position Indication The original RTGB rod position indicators were analog meters that could not be replaced or calibrated on line. It was necessary to remove an entire bank from the RTGB to access one indicator. Therefore as part of the IRPI upgrade to the Hurst NARPI modules (ESR-99-00392) during RFO-20 JAW, the RTGB indicators were also replaced. The new indicators were designed to fit into the exact same opening in the RTGB as the original indicators. The RTGB indicators are designed to accept the 0-3.5 VDC input from the Hurst NARPI Modules. These indicators use a bar of LEDs instead of a pointer needle. The LED indicators provide improved readability. The indicators are scaled from 0 to 250 steps. One step is 5/8, so this scale represents 0 to 156.25. The normal range of travel of a control rod is 0 to 143.75 equal to 0 to 230 steps. The 0 to 250 step scale is internal to the indicator. An external scale is mounted on each bank/group of control rods in an inch scale. In this manner, a control room operator will have both scales available to read. This external scale is ranged from 0 to 150 and will be divided into 20 as a major interval, 10 as a minor interval, and 2.5 as a sub-minor interval. This yields a scale accuracy of 1.25. There are one hundred LED bars over the 250 step scale. This results in an accuracy of the LED bars to 2.5 steps. This results in an overall accuracy of 1.5 on the scale. The LED indicators are powered from Instrument Bus 7A, Ckt 10. This is a safety IRPI Page 19 of 27 Revision 2 INFORMA TION USE ONL V

However, the Rod Bottom LED will still illuminate if a control rod should drop. The Rod Bottom LED is powered from its individual NARPI Module. NOTE: The use of ERFIS is an acceptable alternate method for determining ARPI System Operability JAW Improved Tech Specs if the RTGB RPI indicators are not indicating properly. In cases where both indications (RPI and ERFIS) are tracking closely, and one of the indications is outside the required limits with the other indication still within the limits, ERFIS should be considered the most accurate indication and actions taken should be based on the ERFIS indication. If the ERFIS readout is used to replace the RPI indicators, it shall be continuously displayed on a terminal accessible to the Reactor Operator.

Power Supply: Control Bank - 480V BUS 2B Backup Group A 480V BUS 1 Backup Group B 480V BUS 2A The capability exists to power 150 kW of PZR heaters from Emergency Bus El and another 150 kW of heaters from emergency bus E2. This capability would be used during a loss of offsite power event to ensure proper RCS pressure control capability is maintained. The power supply must be manually transferred to the selected emergency bus following the loss of offsite power to ensure that the PZR temperature remains above the RCS temperature. Once the power supply is transferred, the heaters are controlled from the RTGB. If the PZR heaters are being powered from one of the emergency busses, they will automatically trip upon receipt of a Safety Injection Signal, to ensure the Emergency Diesel Generators are not overloaded by these non-safety related loads. This trip feature is enabled by the PZR Heater Arm switch in the E1/E2 room. PZR control group heaters can also be energized from the DS bus in the event of a loss of all AC power. 3.3 PZR Spray Lines Spray nozzle press drop at max. flow 15.0 psi at 70°F Continuous spray rate 1 gpm Pipe Diameter 4 in. Pipe Schedule 160 Design Pressure 2485 psig Design Temperature 650°F The PZR spray system is designed to pass a total flow of 600 gpm, 300 gpm per valve. The driving force of the spray water is a combination of the differential pressure between the hot and cold legs and the velocity head obtained by using a scoop in the reactor coolant piping. The spray nozzle, which is also protected with a thermal sleeve, is connected to the head of the PZR. It is designed to produce a narrow angle cone spray pattern that prevents cold water impingement on the PZR walls. The spray water is drawn from cold legs of ioops B and C. The two lines tie together downstream of the control valves, form a ioop seal, and supply water through a single spray nozzle. The loop seal is provided to prevent the backup of steam into the piping when the spray valves are closed. A small continuous spray flow is provided, by means of the throttle valves (needle valves) which bypass the spray valves, to help ensure that the PZR liquid is in chemical equilibrium with the rest of the reactor coolant system (RCS) and to prevent thermal shock of the spray piping and the auxiliary spray connection.

The signal conditioning equipment furnishes an analog output voltage proportional to the logarithm of the neutron flux spectrum. Each channel covers approximately eight decades of leakage flux. Isolation amplifiers (for startup-rate circuits, remote recording, remote indication, etc.) and bistables (for permissives, rod stop and reactor trip) use this analog voltage to indicate plant status and provide the necessary plant protection functions.

SD-01O NUCLEAR INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM 1 Oh amperes per roentgen per hour when operated uncompensated, and is reduced to approximately 3 x 1013 amperes/RIhr in compensated operation. The detectors are positioned with their centers at an elevation corresponding to one half of the core height. The JR Detectors are constructed to have two N 2 filled chambers, one inside the other. Both the inner and outer surfaces of the outside chamber is coated with Boron-lO. The inner chamber has no coating and operates in the recombination region. Both neutron and gamma reactions occur in the outer chamber while only gamma reactions occur in the inner chamber. The output of the inner chamber is subtracted from the output of the outer chamber which results in a net output caused by neutron radiation only. The outer chamber operates in the ion chamber region. Overcompensation of the JR signal can occur if the compensating voltage is set too high causing a reduction of the JR signal out. Undercompensation of the JR signal occurs when the compensation voltage is set too low causing an increase of the JR signal out. Overcompensation causes the JR output signal to be nonconservative. The detectors are connected to the junction box with high temperature radiation resistant cables that are mineral insulated. The cables are insulated their full length with fiberglass sleeving to prevent grounding to the detector well. The cable is terminated with an amphenol triaxial connector. The connector is sealed with an epoxy to make them moisture tight. Note: GP-006, NORMAL PLANT SHUTDOWN FROM POWER TO HOT SHUTDOWN, has a precaution concerning these detectors. Impurities which may be present in the Intermediate Rane detectors can prevent the IR range currents from decreasing to the P-6 reset (1W amps) in a normal manner. This situation can be identified by observing NI-35, NI-36, NI-51A and NI 52A. If NI-51A and NI-52A are indicating less than 102 cps, and NI-35 5j NI-36 is not less than lOb amps, the PERMISSIVE P-6 DEFEAT pushbuttons should be depressed to energize the Source Range detectors (Ref. ACR 92-07 1) 3.1.3 PR Detectors The remaining four assemblies contain the PR Uncompensated Ionization Chambers, (see Figure 10). Each assembly provides two signal currents corresponding to the neutron flux in the upper (A) and lower (B) detectors of a core quadrant. These detectors have a total neutron sensitive length of five feet and a nominal thermal neutron sensitivity for each section of 1.7 x I 01 amperes per neutron per square centimeter-second. Gamma sensitivity of each section is approximately 10b0 amperes per roentgen per hour. The PR detectors are a single N 2 filled chamber with all internal surfaces coated with boron to make the detector sensitive to neutrons. Compensation for gamma radiation is not required for two reasons: the neutron produced signal in the PR is approximately a NIS Page 17 of 48 Revision 9 INFORMATION USE ONLY

8.0 PROCEDURE 8.1 Definitions 8.1.1 Axial Flux Difference (AFD) The Axial Flux Difference (AFD) is defined as the difference in normalized flux signals between the top and bottom halves of a two section excore neutron detector (ITS 1.1). This parameter is synonymous with Delta Flux, Indicated Flux Difference, Al, %Al, %A Flux and Aq. AFD can also be related to core Axial Offset (AD) using the following equation: AFD AO
- Power Level/Rated Thermal Power.
AFD relates the power in the top of the core to the power in the bottom of the core as seen by the excore NIS Power Range detectors. A separate AFD value is calculated for each NIS Power Range channel. The equations and ERFIS Point lDs used in calculating AFD for each of the four Power Range channels are shown in ATTACHMENT 10.1. It should be noted that the ERFIS AFD is calculated once per minute and is based on 1 minute average values for V(top), V(bottom) and P. 8.1.2 Target Value (TV) The Target Value, also known as the Target Flux Difference, is the value of AFD determined in conjunction with the measurement of F v(Z) under 0 equilibrium conditions within 31 EFPD after each refueling and every 31 EFPD thereafter (ITS SR 3.2.3.3). During startup and power ascension following each refueling, the Target Value may be based on design predictions until equilibrium conditions for long term operation are reached. Like AFD, the Target Value is power dependent (examples of the variation of Target Value with power are provided in ATTACHMENT 10.2). A separate Target Value is calculated for each NIS Power Range channel. The Target Value for a Power Range channel is generally the average ERFIS AFD value recorded for that channel during the course of the flux map. The equations and ERFIS Point IDs used in calculating the power dependent Target Value for each of the four Power Range channels are shown in ATTACHMENT 10.1. FMP-009 Rev. 17 Page 6 of 34

SD-006 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SYSTEM control systems. 4.1.1 Pressurizer Pressure (ESF-Figure-2) Pressurizer Pressure measurement is one of the inputs used to generate a Safety Injection signal. Three pressure comparators (bistables) provide an input to a 2/3 matrix to generate a Safety Injection signal at 1715 psig lowering pressure. This signal provides protection against the following accidents: an inadvertent opening of a SG safety valve, a steam line break, a spectrum of rod control cluster assembly ejection accidents(rod ejections), inadvertent opening of a pressurizer safety or PORV, and a SO tube rupture. This measurement is also used to provide: Low and High pressure reactor trips An input to the on-line algorithm to calculate the Overtemperature T setpoints; and An input, via independent transmitters which transmit signals to the Presssurizer Pressure Control System, is provided to achieve channel independence. No components are shared by the protection and control functions; they are either protection grade RPS inputs, located and designed as such, or they are part of the Pressurizer Pressure Control System. The pressurizer pressure uses two-out-of-three RSPS logic. Since separate pressurizer pressure sensors are used for the control and RSPS channels, no interaction will occur. For more information on the pressurizer pressure detectors and pressurizer pressure control system refer to SD-059, Pressurizer and Pressurizer Relief Tank. 4.1.2 Reactor Coolant Temperature (ESF-Figure- 1) The RCS Low Tavg signal (2 of 3 channels below 543°F) is used to initiate the Safety Injection signal, when coincident with high steam flow; and close the Main Steam Isolation Valves, when coincident with high steam flow (i.e., generate the Steam Line Isolation Signal). 4.1.3 Steam Flow (ESF-Figure-1) Hi Steam Flow (37.25% flow at no load to 20% load, increases linearly to 109% at full load) detected by at least one sensor on two of three steam lines, coincident with low Tavg (543°F) or low steam line pressure (614 psig), generates a Safety Injection signal and closes all MSIVs. Two flow controllers on each steam line are used to sense high steam line flow. This circuit is designed to detect steam line breaks downstream of the ESF Page 12 of 40 Revision 11 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-006 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES SYSTEM MSIVs. 4.1.4 Steam Line Pressure (ESF-Figure-1 & 3) Steam Line Pressure measurement is utilized for steam line break protection. Low steam line pressure (614 psig) in two of three main steam lines or Low Tavg (543°F) in two of three loops, coincident with high steam line flow in two-of-three main steam lines, will initiate the Steam Line Isolation and Safety Injection signals. This is to protect against: a steam line break downstream of the main steam check valves, a feed line break, and/or an inadvertent opening of a SG safety. In addition, each steam line pressure measurement is compared with a main steam header pressure measurement to determine if a high steam line differential pressure exists. A coincidence of two-of-three steam line differential pressures (100 psid) in any one steam line, that is, steam line pressure lower than main steam header pressure, will initiate a Safety Injection signal. The steam header pressure is electronically limited to a minimum value of 585 psig. Therefore, this SI signal must be blocked before a plant cooldown is started to prevent SI actuation when S/G pressures drop below 485 psig(approximately 467°F). The steam line differential pressure circuit detects faults upstream of the MSIVs. Since the steam line check valves prevent reverse flow to the faulted S/G, excessive steam line differential pressure does not close the MSIVs. 4.1.5 Containment Pressure (ESF-Figure-4 & 5) Containment Pressure measurement is utilized to initiate Emergency Core Cooling in response to a Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA), and to provide containment pressure protection for either a LOCA, a feed line break inside containment, or a Main Steam Line Break inside containment. Nine pressure comparators, with inputs from six pressure transmitters, are used as inputs to ESFAS. Three pressure comparators provide an input for Hi Containment Pressure at 4 psig increasing pressure. Six pressure comparators provide an input for Hi-Hi Containment Pressure at 10 psig. A coincidence of two of three Hi Containment Pressure (4 psig) will initiate a Safety Injection signal. A coincidence of two separate two-of-three Hi-Hi Containment Pressure signals (10 psig), i.e., two-of-three twice, will initiate the following signals: Steam Line Isolation, Containment Spray Actuation Containment Isolation Phase B Safety Injection Signal(This SI is not credited and is blocked by the Tavg Block) ESF Page 13 of4O Revision 11 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

Refer to SD-019, Radiation Monitoring System, for more information on R-1 I and R-12. 4.1.8 Control Room Area Radiation (ESF-Figure-4) Control Room Area Radiation Monitor, R-1, provides an input for actuation of the Control Room Ventilation Emergency Pressurization Mode. Refer to SD-019, Radiation Monitoring System, for more information on R-1. 4.2 Safety Injection 4.2.1 Safety Injection (SI or S) Signal (ESF-Figure-4 & 5) The Safety Injection signal is initiated in a variety of ways.

Place the Steam Dump Control Switch momentarily to Bypass Tavg Interlock and place the Steam Dump Mode Selector Switch to Reset and then to Steam Pressure Mode and manually adjust output as necessary. The correct answer is C. A. Incorrect The steam dumps will be operated in Manual. However, Steam Dump Mode Selector Switch must be placed in STEAM PRESS before the steam dumps will respond to a manual signal. B. Incorrect These actions would cause the steam dumps to open rapidly if a demand signal was present on PC-464B. To prevent the steam dumps from potentially instantly opening due to a large demand signal the controller is adjusted to MINIMUM prior to selecting STEAM PRESS mode. C. Correct.

SD-019 RADIATION MONITORING SYSTEM Accident Channels are defined as detector/drawer arrangements, either area or process, that are designed to provide indication during and after an accident when radiation levels and/or environmental specifications of the other area and process channels may be exceeded. The other Area and Process channels will however, continue to provide indication during and after an accident until the above mentioned limitations are exceeded.
- 1. The area RMS (system # 7005)
Defined as a detector/drawer arrangement in which the detector is exposed or subject to general area radiation.
- 2. The process RMS (system # 7005).
Defined as a detector/drawer arrangement in which the detector is housed in a shielded assembly where only a specific radiation source is monitored. 2.3.1 Area RMS (FIGURE 2) This system consists of twelve channels that monitor radiation levels in various areas of the plant. Two of these channels (R-32A and R-32B) are designated as accident channels. Channel Area Monitored R-l Control Room R-2 CV Low Range Monitor R-3 PASS Panel Area R-4 Charging Pump Room R-5 Spent Fuel Building R-6 Sampling Room R-7 CV In-core Instrumentation Room R-8 Drumming Station R-9 Letdown Line Area R-32A CV High Range R-32B CV High Range R-33 Monitor Building Area A typical area channel consists of a detector and a ratemeter. This monitoring system utilizes fixed-position, gamma-sensitive G-M tube detectors (except R-32A and R-32B which use Ion Chambers). The radiation level is indicated locally near the detector (except R-32A and R-32B) and in the Control Room on the ratemeter digital display (R 32A and R-32B have an analog display). Radiation levels are recorded by a multi-point recorder RR-1. High-radiation levels and Trouble alarms are annunciated on the RTGB and on the rate-meters. Also, high radiation levels are annunciated near the detector locations (except R-32A and R-32B have no local alarm). Channel R-1 is the only area RMS Page 8 of 59 Revision 8 INFORMA TION ONL Y

- e. Pressing and holding the CKT TEST pushbutton (white light) will perform a function check of the ratemeter. During this test the microprocessor executes a detailed routine that checks the read-only memory (ROM),
random access memory (RAM) and the processor. Display readings will depend on the ratemeter/detector calibration. A display of only 1 or 2 in the center digit position indicates a ROM or a RAM error; a number 3 indicates both a ROM and a RAM error. In addition, as soon as the switch is pressed, the ALARM/RESET lamp and RTGB will annunciate; and any auto functions will activate. When the pushbutton is released the ALARM/RESET lamp and any auto functions will deactivate.

SD-036 HVAC SYSTEM exhaust unit HVE-13. Air supplied by HVAC-1 is heated/cooled as needed and recirculated without any direct make-up or exhaust air. The mens and ladies! restrooms are ventilated by individual exhaust fans and heated by electric unit heaters, EUH-F and G. C-i is located on the roof of the tool room adjacent to the CV access area. 2.4.8 Reactor Auxiliary Building Main Supply (HVS-1) and Exhaust (HVE-2A, HVE-2B) (See Figures 3 and 4) The main air supply unit for the Reactor Auxiliary Building is supply unit HVS-l. HVS-i supplies treated outdoor air during the summer and partly return/partly outdoor air during the winter. Heating steam to coils in HVS-i (Reactor Auxiliary Building) is supplied from the Auxiliary Steam System, and condensate is returned to the same system. Supply water to the cell type air washers is supplied from the Service Water System. The inter-area air transfer in system HVS-l is accomplished by maintaining a pressure differential between the supply air outlets and exhaust intakes so that the direction of air flow is always from areas of lower contamination to areas of higher contamination. Part of the air supplied by HVS-l is collected and returned to the unit during winter. This is accomplished by a return air system that includes fan HVE-7. The total amount of air handled by HVE-7 includes air from the Electrical Equipment Area, Relay Room No. 1, CCW Surge Tank Area, and the H&V Equipment Room. The rest of the air supplied by HVS-l is exhausted by two sets of exhaust units: HVE-5A, 5B and HVE-2A, 2B. HVE-5A and 5B exhaust to HVE-2A and 2B through a charcoal filtering unit and are not used during normal operations. HVE-2A and 2B discharge to the plant stack. 2.4.9 RHR Pump Room (HVH-8A, HVH-8B), SI (HVH-6A, HVH-6B), and AFW Pump Rooms (HVH-7A, HVH-7B) ( See Figure 4) These rooms are cooled by recirculating the air through cooling units located in the rooms. The RHR Pump Room is cooled by cooling units HVH-8A and 8B. The SI Pump Room is cooled by cooling units HVH-6A and HVH-6B. The AFW Pump Room is cooled by cooling units HVH-7A and HVH-7B. The actual cooling is accomplished by circulating the room air, and water from the Service Water System through a heat exchanger cooled by SW. 2.4.10 CCW Surge Tank Room Electric Unit Heater EUH-1 This heater provides local heating to the Component Cooling Surge Tank Room. 2.4.11 Miscellaneous Rooms Steam Unit Heaters SUH-I through SUH-13 HVAC Page 14 of 67 Revision 14 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

SD-036 HVAC SYSTEM is actuated. On flow failure, an air flow switch (in the discharge of each fan) starts the standby fan after a 20 second time delay, de-energizes the controls of the fan that failed, annunciates low flow, and sounds an alarm for standby fan running. A pitot tube sensing velocity pressure, located in the common discharge duct, modulates (through a differential pressure controller) the filter dampers to maintain constant air flow. Booster fans HVE-5A and 5B for carbon and absolute filters are interlocked with HVE-2A and 2B fans. Manual starting of HVE-5A and 5B closes the normal flow damper automatically, opens the filter damper and starts the fan with indicating lights located on the RTGB. The damper positions are shown on the RTGB with indicating lights. If the motor of HVE-5A electrically trips, the standby fan, HVE-5B will start automatically. An air flow switch in the filter duct also starts the standby fan on flow failure after a 20 second time delay, de-energizes the controls of the fan that failed, annunciates low flow, and sounds an alarm for standby running. A pitot tube sensing velocity pressure located in the inlet duct to the filters, modulates the filter damper through a differential pressure controller to maintain constant air flow through the filters. The filter damper opens automatically when either exhaust fan HVE-5A or 5B is energized. Fresh air intake louver and fan discharge dampers open and controls are energized when HVS-1 fan is energized. A modulating controller, set at 50°F, controls the air temperature leaving the steam coil by throttling the steam valve to each coil section. A thermostat in the return air readjusts the modulating controller to maintain a minimum return air temperature of 50°F. A thermostat located in the discharge of HVS-1 annunciates and sounds an alarm on the RTGB when discharge temperature is below 3 5°F. Exhaust fan HVE-7 is energized when supply fan HVS-l is energized. When the outdoor temperature is below 60°F, the EAC is not placed in service, the return air damper to HVS-1 opens, and the exhaust damper of HVE-7 closes. When the outdoor temperature is above 60°F, EAC-3 may be placed in service, the return air damper closes, and the exhaust damper opens. Electric duct heaters EDH-2 and 3 are energized through a room thermostat when supply fan HVS-1 is energized. 4.9 RHR, SI, and AFW Pump Rooms Cooler Unit Fans HVH-6A, -6B, -7A, -7B, -8A, and -8B, will start under the conditions specified in Section 6.1.9. Indicating lights on the RTGB show units off or running. HVAC Page 30 of 67 Revision 14 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-036 HVAC SYSTEM If a Diesel Generator is started, its ventilation system is automatically started. Fans may be started manually from the RTGB as required by plant conditions. For cooling of Diesel Room A HVS-6 and exhaust fan RyE-i 8 are started as required by plant conditions. For cooling of Diesel Room B, HVS-5 and exhaust fan HVE-17 are started as required by plant conditions. 6.1.7 Containment Vessel Access Area Supply and Exhaust During normal operation, HVAC-1 will operate according to thermostat setting and HVE-13 will be operating continuously. 6.1.8 Reactor Auxiliary Building Main Supply and Exhaust EDH-2 is thermostatically controlled. It operates whenever heating is required. HVE-7 operates continuously during normal plant operation. HVE-7 exhaust louver and HVS-i return louver are opened and closed, respectively, and solenoid valve SW-787 is open if the outside air temperature is above 60°F. HVE-5A and HVE-5B are not operating during normal plant operation. These units can started for the Recirc Phase of Safety Injection or as required by plant conditions to reduce possible airborne activity. When they are placed in service, the bypass damper shuts and air is redirected through the charcoal and absolute filters. HVE-5A or HVE-5B may be started anytime HVE-2A or HVE-2B is running. If HVE-2A/2B or HVE-5A/5B has an electrical trip, its respective standby fan starts for be the tripped fan. If I-IVE-2A/2B or HVE-5A/5B has a low flow, its respective standby fan starts and trips out the running fan. 6.1.9 RHR, SI, and AFW Pump Rooms When a SI, CS, RHR, or MDAFW pump is started, only the room cooler fan in the same train will start or with no pump running, any room cooler fan can be started by placing the fans two-position selector switch at the respective MCC in the RUN position. 6.1.9.1 HVH-6A and HVI-{-6B SI/CS Cooler Fan HVH-6A will start automatically if any of the following occurs:

SD-U 17 INSTRUMENT AND STATION AIR SYSTEM Compressor is used as backup to feed the Condens ate Polisher Air System. The TA System is sometimes referred to as oil-free. An oil-free compressor is the same as a non-lubricated compressor. Both terms are used interchangeably and simply refer to the fact that oil is not injected into the cylinders. However, all compressors need oil and contain oil in the crank case to provide lubricatio n to the journal bearings and other components. Non-lubricated or oil-free machines are designed to keep oil out of the cylinders. The term oil-free (or non-lubricate d) IA is defined as a system containing not more than I ppm oil. The SA System has one 400 scfm oil lubricated air compressor with aftercooler, one 150 cubic foot air receiver, controls and accessories but no air dryer. Since SA differs from IA only in its higher oil and moisture contents, SA is used as a backup for IA by passing the SA receiver discharge through aaIeccinc fiItc The SA compressor is oil-lubricated and is not intended to be used for breathing air. When cross connected to IA, the use of breathing air is stopped to prevent potential harm to users. To a lesser extent, it is also stopped due to a reduction in air pressure. Normally IAC D and the PAC will alternate to supply all the plant compressed air. D IAC capacity is rated at 526 acfm* at 110 psig (492 to 552 scfm depending on outside temperature). The PAC is rated at 300 scfm at 100 psig (284 scfm at 110 psig). NOTE: scfm Standard Cubic Feet/minute base d on 70°F at sea level acfm Actual Cubic Feet/minute, corrected for press ure and temp erature For IAC D, ambient air enters through a dry type inlet filter and silencer. Inlet air is regulated by the Air Intake Valve (To load and unlo ad). The first compression occurs in the LP stage element. The air then flows through an air cooled Intercooler. A water separator removes any water condensed in the cool er. The air is compressed again in the HP element before the air is discharged into a puls ation damper-silencer, through a check valve and into a precooler then into an aftercool er, again with a water separator. Outlet air carrying higher pressure (about 100 psig) and high er temperature is then admitted to a 506 scfm air dryer before it discharges to a 427 cubi c foot receiver. The air drying system is of the adsorption desiccant type. D IA Dryer capacity is rated at 506 scfm (at 14.5 psi & 68°F). The compressor and the dryer are designed to operate together. From the air receiver, air is distributed to various IA head ers. The 300 scfm PAC maintains system pressure arou nd 100 psig. The flowpath through the compressor/dryer is essentially the same as IAC D. Outlet air is admitted to a 327 scfm absorption desiccant type dryer before it disch arges to a 427 cubic foot air receiver. A cooling fan removes the heat added by compress ion. Air can then be distributed from AIR Page 7of37 Revision 12 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-017 INSTRUMENT AND STATION AIR SYSTEM 6.2.1 Normally, the IA system should be aligned with:
- Both JAC A & B should be in AUTO NOTE: During weekly checks of plant equipment, the Primary Air Compr essor and Instrument Air Compressor D will normally be swapped to provide for an even run time between the two compressors.
- PAC OR IAC D will be in service
- SAC should be ON 6.2.2 Ensure oil gauge glass level is NORMAL on each compressor prior to STAR TING.
6.2.3 Set TCVs (TCV-1628 and TCV-1629-A & B) to maintain an outlet SW temper ature of 90°F. This setting is adequate to ensure proper cooling and prevent condensation in the cylinder passages. 6.2.4 The nitrogen bottle high pressure gauge at the HVS-5, 6, and RyE-I 7, 18 contro l panel, should be maintained at not less than 1500 psig during normal plant operation. The nitrogen regulator has been adjusted to supply 50 psig if the IA pressure falls below this value. 6.2.5 The compressed air bottle high pressure gauge for the charging pumps and LCV-1 15B should be maintained at not less than 1350 psig during normal plant operation. The air regulator has been adjusted to supply 45 psig if the IA header pressure falls below this value. 6.3 Abnormal Operation 6.3.1 There are some air operated valves that use air as a force to both open and close the valve, but have a trip valve that will cause the valve to go to a failed position when air pressure decreases to a predetermined pressure. LCV-1530A and LCV-1530B have these trip valves (fail position at 60 psig). 6.3.2 Cross Connecting the Air Systems The Station and IA Systems are designed to be cross connected. The SA can be lined up to supply IA through SA-220, through the coalescing filter and SA-22 1 (the preferr ed path). SA-5 is in a cross connect line without a filter and should not be used unless the filter is unavailable and no other source of IA is available. The IA Dryers are bypass ed when SA is cross connected with IA. AIR Page 19 of 37 Revision 12 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y

SD-041 FIRE WATER SYSTEM 2.2 Design Basis The fire water system is capable of maintaining pressure in the fire main ioop at 70 psig or higher with the largest deluge system in operation with an additional 1000 gpm available for fire hose operations. 2.3 System Flow Paths (Figure 7) Utilizing Lake Robinson as a source of supply, three (3) fire pumps deliver water through a twelve (12) inch feed to a ten (10) inch fire main loop surrounding Unit-2. Refer to Drawing HBR2-8255 for the schematic layout of the fire pumps. 2.4 System Description 2.4.1 Fire Water Distribution System The fire main loop is part of the distribution system. The loop supplies fire hydrants, deluge systems, sprinkler systems, a dry standpipe system and hose stations. In an emergency, water can be supplied to the Unit-2 fire main loop from the Unit-i fire pump and/or ash sluice pumps. The Ash Sluice pumps (normally isolated) take suction from the discharge canal. The canal has a weir that ensures some water will be available even if the dam were to fail and lake level was lost. Also, an automatic starting, 2000 gpm (at 103 psig) electric fire pump at the Unit-I intake may be used to supply the system. The Unit-I fire pump takes suction from the lake and is located at the Unit-i intake. The fire water pumps are located in the Unit-2 Intake Structure and include one (1) booster pump and two (2) redundant fire pumps each rated at 2500 gpm. The booster pump maintains fire water system pressure at approximately 125 psi, under non-use conditions. One fire pump is driven by an electric motor and the other by a diesel engine. Both start automatically upon decreasing fire water header pressure. The diesel engine is arranged so that engine overheating or loss of oil pressure will not cause the engine to shut down, but will provide a local alarm and a pump failure alarm in the Control Room. Once started, the engine will run until manually stopped, it trips on overspeed, runs out of fuel or it fails. FPW Page 8 of 66 Revision 6 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-041 FIRE WATER SYSTEM Fuel oil sufficient for at least eight (8) hours of operation is supplied by a 450 gallon fuel tank located outside of the intake structure. Normal usage is approximately 10 gal. per hour when the pump is running. Upon a reduction of pressure in the fire main loop, pressure switches initiate a sequential starting of the fire pumps. The Motor Driven Fire Pump starts at 100 psig (95 psig 105 - psig). Should the fire main pressure drop to 90 psig (85 psig 95 psig), the Engine Driven Fire Pump will automatically start. Each pump discharges through a swing check valve and gate valve to the fire water header. The swing check valves prevent reverse flow through the non-running fire pumps. Pressure relief valves set at 135 psig provide protection for each fire pump by discharging excess water back into Lake Robinson. Air release valves adjacent to the relief valves are connected to high points and vent air from the discharge piping in an effort to reduce water hammer. Hose manifolds are provided as a means of testing fire pump capacity and can also be used as fire hydrants. The three (3) fire pumps can be manually operated at their respective local control panels. Remote operation and indications for the Motor Driven Fire Pump (MDFP) are provided in the Control Room on the Containment Fire Protection Panel (CFPP). The Fire Alarm Console (FAC) in the Control Room provides alarms only. Operations, indications and alarms for the Engine Driven Fire Pump (EDFP) and its control system occur locally on its controller. The Fire Alarm Console (FAC) in the Control Room provides alarms only. The booster pump is only operated at its local control panel. There are no local or remote indication or alarms other than pressure gauge indications. Post indicator gate valves (P.I.V.s) are strategically located within the fire main loop. The normally open valves permit isolation of a section of the fire main loop without loss of fire service to other than the isolated section. A section of the fire main loop may be defined by its boundary valves. Attachment 3 lists the systems, hydrants and hose stations which would be rendered inoperable by the isolation of various sections of the fire main loop. Attachment 3 also lists back-up sources of fire water for the affected systems, hydrants and hose stations. FPW Page 9 of 66 Revision 6 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-041 FIRE WATER SYSTEM 5.0 CONTROLS AND PROTECTION 5.1 Booster Pump The pump runs continuously and is not connected to any instrumentation or controlling devices other than its motor controller. The local control panel is equipped with a two (2) position selector switch (ON/OFF), normally in the ON position. 5.2 Motor Driven Fire Pump The local control switch at the intake is equipped with a three (3) position rotary snap switch (OFF, AUTO, ON). The selector switch is normally in the AUTO position. This allows for automatic starting of the fire pump by the pressure switch. Manual starting is accomplished by moving a rotary snap switch on either the local controller or on the Containment Fire Protection Panel in the Control Room to the ON position. 5.3 Engine Driven Fire Pump The controller for the diesel engine driven fire pump is located in a separate structure west of the Intake Structure. Input power is supplied from Lighting Panel 35 Circuit 8. The controller electrical output for battery charging is 24 volts DC. The control system consists of the controller, battery charger, batteries, and associated alarms as shown in Figure 6. The controller performs the following functions:
- 1. In AUTO, starts the engine upon a low fire main loop pressure of 90 psig (85 psig to 95 psig). An approximate two (2) second time delay is provided so a pressure spike will not start the diesel fire pump.
- 2. Maintains battery charging via the two (2) battery chargers.
- 3. Provides for normal and emergency battery starting power.
- 4. Provides for local starting and stopping.
- 5. Accommodates MANUAL testing.
- 6. Monitors the following eight indications and alarms:
A. BATTERY 1 FAILURE B. BATTERY 2 FAILURE C. LOW OIL PRESSURE D. HIGH WATER TEMP FPW Page 28 of 66 Revision 6 INFORMA TION USE ONL Y
SD-041 FIRE WATER SYSTEM Supervision of pre-action sprinkler systems and the dry standpipe is provided by pressurizing the riser with air between 15 and 50 psig depending on the system. A water seal is placed on the valve. The sprinkler riser is then pressurized by the instrument air system through a pressure regulator. Should a sprinkler open, loss of header air pressure results in a Low Air alarm from the systems pressure switch. The resulting alarms are also listed in Attachment 10.2. In Containment, the instrument air system supplies all three (3) Reactor Coolant Pump Pre Action sprinkler systems (Fire Detection Zones 25A, B, and C) from the D Header. The Electrical Penetration Area Pre-Action System (Fire Detection Zone 24) is supplied from the Auxiliary Building Instrument Air System header. The air compressor for the Turbine Lube Oil Deluge System supplies the Rate-of-Rise detection systems with supervisory air at 1 to 11/2 psig in the HAD system only. 6.0 SYSTEM OPERATION 6.1 Normal Operation 6.1.1 Fire Water System Normal operation of the fire water system consists of the booster pump maintaining system pressure above the starting pressure of the MDFP, under non-use conditions and the following in the indicated operational state:
- Electric and diesel fire pump controllers, energized and in the automatic (AUTO) mode.
- Post indicator valves in fire main loop open.
- Water supply (header) valves open.
- Pre-action and deluge controlling gate valves open.
- All pre-action, deluge, dry standpipe, wet-pipe, and dry-pipe sprinkler system valves and trim properly set to operate.
- The Fire Detection and Actuation System (FDAS) control panels energized and alarms cleared.

SD-041 FIRE WATER SYSTEM
- Deluge sprinkler systems
- Dry standpipe system
- Hose station
- Fire hydrants
- Wet-Pipe Sprinkler System
- Dry-Pipe Sprinkler System With the local control switch in AUTO, starting of the MDFP is caused by a drop in fire water header pressure to 100 psig (95 psig to 105 psig) which closes the contact on pressure switch PSL-7054. The closed contact energizes the breaker closing coil in 480 Volt Bus 3, Compartment 14C, which is a Westinghouse DB-50 breaker. With the closing coil energized, the MDFP will start. The pump will continue to operate until manually shutdown.
When the MDFP cannot maintain system pressure or fails to start, the Engine Driven Fire Pump (EDFP) starts automatically at 90 psig (85 psig to 95 psig). The pressure switch closes at 90 psig (85 psig to 95 psig) and following a short time delay, the controller for the EDFP will start the pump using the batteries. Once started the engine will continue to run until manually stopped at the control panel by pushing the STOP button, or turning the switch to the OFF position. Except for overspeed trip the pump engine will run until failure or fuel depletion. If the switch is in the AUTO position, the EDFP is reset for automatic operation by pushing the STOP button. If in any other mode of operation,stop the EDFP by moving the control switch to the OFF position, allow starting conditions to return to normal, and move the control switch to the AUTO position. 6.2.2 Deluge Sprinkler System As illustrated in Attachment 7.1 automatic operation of the turbine lube oil deluge system is accomplished by using Heat Activated Devices, (HADs). Heat from a fire increases air pressure in the HADs. This increase in pressure is conveyed through tubing to the release device where it is used to automatically trip the deluge valve and allows water to be discharged through the open spray nozzles. Automatic operation of the deluge systems for the three main transformers, startup transformer, aux. transformer and H2 seal oil skid is accomplished by using solenoid valves to open the deluge valves. When a fire is sensed by the linear heat detector installed around any of the five transformers or H2 seal oil skid, it sends a discrete signal to the associated solenoid release module. The release module energizes the solenoid to open it which FPW Page 36 of 66 Revision 6 INFORMA TION USE ONL V
SD-041 FIRE WATER SYSTEM 6.3 Abnormal Operation 6.3.1 Manual Operation Fire Pumps Manual actuation is provided for all automatic features of the Fire Water System. The booster pump is manually started at its local controller by placing the selector switch in the ON position. Manual starting of the Engine Driven Fire Pump is done locally at the EDFP controller by moving the selector switch to the MANUAL 1 or MANUAL 2 position and pushing the START button. Manual starting of the Motor Driven Fire Pump (MDFP) can be accomplished locally by the local control switch located within the Service Water enclosure. This switch is spring return to AUTO from the ON position, and maintained in the OFF position. With the switch in the AUTO position, the pump will start automatically if fire main header pressure drops below 100 psig (95 to 105 psig). With the local control switch in the OFF position, the MDFP will not start even if fire main header pressure drops below 100 psig (95 to 105 psig). This feature will allow time for clearances to be hung for maintenance activities without concerns of the MDFP starting on low pressure. Thus, the OFF position is considered to be a maintenance position. The Motor Driven Fire Pump can also be stopped and started from the Containment Fire Protection Panel in the Control Room. This is a spring loaded switch which when turned ON and OFF returns to the center position. This switch is designed so the MDFP can be stopped and the switch held in OFF position for five seconds and it locks out the electric motor so the pump will not start even if the system pressure is less than the auto start pressure. However, if the system pressure rises above the automatic start pressure (95 to 105 psi) and then drops below the auto start pressure the pump will automatically start. 6.3.2 Manual Operation Deluge Systems Manual operation of the deluge systems can be accomplished both locally and remotely (turbine lube oil deluge system only). Local (Manual) operation of the deluge systems is accomplished at the deluge valve by pulling down on the manual pull handle. This releases the weight which trips the deluge valve clapper open.

UATE CORE COOLING MONITOR SYSTEM INTRODUCTION As a result of the 1979 accident at Three Mile Island Unit 2 (TMI-2), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) recommended the installation of instrumentation to provide unambiguous, easy-to-read indication of inadequate core cooling. During the accident at TMI-2, both a low water level condition in the reactor vessel and inadequate core cooling existed, but neither was recognized for a long period of time. The failure was the result of a combination of factors including an insufficient range of existing instrumentation, inadequate emergency procedures, inadequate operator training, unfavorable instrument location (scattered information), and insufficient instrumentation. In 1980 the NRC issued NUREG-0737, which required the installation of inadequate core cooling instrumentation that will provide the control room operator with unambiguous indication of the approach to inadequate core cooling in small-break loss of coolant accidents (LOCA5). Inadequate Core Cooling Monitor (ICCM) instrumentation is applicable primarily to the slow transient, small-break LOCA and recovery. Neither the ICCM instrumentation as a whole nor th&iactor vessel water level instrumentation is required to follow the fast transients resulting from a large-break LOCA. Instrumentation associated with the Reactor Protection System identifies a large-break LOCA and initiates emergency core cooling systems before the control room operator can respond to the ICCM. However, it is important that the ICCM instrumentation be capable of surviving a large-break LOCA transient so that it can be used for post-accident monitoring and recovery (RG 1.97). Reliable operation of the ICCM, especially the Reactor Vessel Level Instrumentation System (RLVIS), during normal reactor operation is necessary so that the control room operators will be confident of the indications. 1.1 System Purpose The ICCM System assists the operator in detecting the following conditions:
- Approach to inadequate core cooling
- Presence of gas bubble or void in the reactor vessel
- Formation of voids in the reactor coolant system (RCS) during forced coolant flow ICCM Page 5 of 42 Revision 3 INFORMATION USE ONLY

The crew has discovered an error in an AOP. The AOP identified the proper title of a pressure indicator, but describes the indicator as P1-2098 instead of the correct number P1-2089.
- A temporary procedure change has been initiated to correct the error.
Which ONE (1) of the following statements applies to the temporary proced ure change process lAW PRO-NGGC-0204, PROCEDURE REVIEW AND APPR OVAL? A The expiration date of the temporary change shall not exceed 21 days from the approval date. B. The procedure owner must approve the temporary change prior to use in the field. C. The change must be processed as a Normal Revision since it is an Intent Change. D. The expiration date of the temporary change shall not exceed four months from the interim approval date. The correct answer is A. A. Correct B. Incorrect A temporary change has to be approved by Management person nel, but it does NOT require the Procedure Owner to approve it before use by the shift operators. C. Incorrect A change of intent can NOT be processed as a temporary change. Whether the change is to an AOP has NO bearing on whether the change can be processed as a temporary change. D. Incorrect Four months is the expiration date for temporary procedure revisio ns for ALL other Progress Energy sites. Page: 125 of 187 10/13/2011

3.0 RESPONSIBILITIES 3.1 Fire Brigade Incident Commander (FBIC) 3.1.1 The FBIC should establish a Command Post in an appropriate location, at a safe distance from any fire or respiratory hazard. The Command Post shall NOT be in the same building as the fire. The Command Post should provide adequate space to work with pre-plans, accountability board, radio, etc. Direct observation of the scene is desirable, but not always possible. [CAPR NCR 129905] 3.1.2 Should reference to the applicable pre-plan as soon as reasonably and safely possible. 3.1.3 Using the applicable pre-plan and ATTACHMENT 10.1 as a guide, maintain overall Command and Control of the fire scene. 3.1.4 Using ATTACHMENT 10.2, maintain a record of the event for use in the FP-002 Fire Report. Maintaining this record in a real time basis is not to interfere with proper command and control OR personnel safety. 3.1.5 Call for additional assistance as soon as there is any possibility that the fire will progress faster or farther than the minimum fire brigade staffing can safely contain and control. This should also include the considerations for:
- 1. Back-up man power for clean-up and extended reflash watch duties.
- 2. Environmental conditions such as high heat and/or humidity.
(29 CFR 1910, Subpart L, AppendixAto 1910.157) 3.1.6 Allow the removal (doffing) of Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) after determining that the atmospheric conditions do not present any immediate or near term health effects. 3.1.7 Ensure that the liquid run off from any fire is monitored and sampled for any possible radioactive, chemical and/or oil contamination. [OMMoo3 Rev. 56 Page 8 of 200
3.1.8 Ensure complete documentation of any personnel exposures to hazardous materials and/or bodily fluids lAW SAF-SUBS-015 and Fire Brigade Member Responsibility 3.3.6 for Bloodborne Pathogens. 3.2 Control Room NOTE: This procedure may be used in parallel with AOP-041, FP-001 and DSP-001. 3.2.1 Should reference the applicable pre-plan as soon as reasonably and safely possible to anticipate the needs of the FBIC. 3.2.2 Keep the FBIC informed of any changes to the ventilation system including stopping of fans as directed in AOP-041. 3.3 All Fire Brigade Members 3.3.1 Keep the FBIC informed of the existence and extent of any exposure fires. 3.3.2 Full protective clothing (turn-out gear) with SCBA shall be worn (donned) by all Fire Brigade members actively involved with fire suppressions, rescue and/or post-fire salvage and overhaul. (29CFR 1910, Subpart L, AppendixAto 1910.156) 3.3.3 Judicially use fire water in the Auxiliary Building to prevent: Flooding of previously unaffected areas Over filling of the Auxiliary Building Sumps and the Waste Holdup Tank Wetting down of unaffected plant equipment 3.3.4 Consider any liquid run off from a fire as potentially hazardous material until sample results can prove otherwise. OMM-003 Rev. 56 Page 9 of 200
3.3.5 Extreme caution should be exercised when fire fighting in the area of potentially energized electrical equipment. The use of water on potentially energized equipment can cause severe electrical shock to all individuals in contact with the fire hose or any run off. As a general rule, if the FBIC calls for a water suppression attack, a fog pattern spray should be used on any potentially energized equipment while maintaining a separation of at least 10 feet from the equipment to the fire fighters. A minimum of 30 feet separation is required for a water fog or foam attack in the transformer yard or switchyard. Use of foam on potentially energized electrical equipment should be avoided because of the conductive nature of the product. 3.3.6 Bloodborne Pathogens Precautions as Related to Fire Victim Rescue or Recovery (29 CFR 1910.1030, SAF-SUBS-015)
- 1. Universal Precautions is an approach to infection control.
According to the concept of Universal Precautions, all human blood and certain body fluids are treated as if known to be infectious for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (H IV) Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and other bloodborne pathogens.
- 2. Firefighter turnout gloves do not provide adequate protection from bloodborne pathogens. For non-emergency situations, such as first aide administration away from the fire or post-fire recovery of a fire victim, the firefighter shall wear latex, vinyl or rubber gloves as hand protection. The first responder can assist and provide guidance for controlling personnel exposures.
- 3. In emergency situations, such as removal of a fire victim during or as part of fire fighting, it is understood that the firefighter can not change gloves prior to touching or handling the victim. In these cases the firefighter shall change gloves AND wash their hands as soon as possible. Documentation of exposures shall be as described in SAF-SUBS-015.
OMM-003 Rev. 56 Page 10 of 200
3.3.6 (Continued)
- 4. With the exception of turnout gloves, firefighter turnout gear provides adequate protection from blood and body fluids. Helmet face shields shall be fully lowered to ensure facial protection when not wearing an SC BA.
- 5. Firefighter turnout gear that is or potentially may be contaminated by blood or body fluids shall be properly removed, segregated and bagged in biohazard marked bags. These bags shall be marked for either cleaning or disposal.
3.3.7 Assess the on-scene conditions and extinguish the fire using the following guidelines (Two-in/Two-out Rule): Use teams with a minimum of two members for interior structural fire fighting or rescue situations. With the exception of rescue situations involving the retrieval of a known victim, verify a Back-up Team of at least two Fire Brigade members is established outside the IDLH atmosphere prior to commencing interior structural fire fighting. 4.0 PREREQUISITES N/A 5.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 5.1 Ensure that the fire area is ventilated as soon as safely possible. This will reduce the smoke, heat and steam in the area, thus improving visibility, equipment safety and firefighter safety. This will also provide more timely access in areas such as the Auxiliary Building First Floor for implementation of DSP actions and for assessment of damage/repairs. 5.2 If an area has exterior doors, the primary method of ventilation should be through them to the outside. When ventilating from the Auxiliary Building directly to the outside environment, Health Physics will need to monitor the contamination levels of the discharge. OMM-003 Rev. 56 Page 1 1 of 200
5.3 When natural draft ventilation is used, providing an opening at a higher elevation and an opening at a lower elevation creates a chimney effect to more efficiently move smoke out of a building. 5.4 Smoke ejectors can be used alone with or without extension trunks or in series using extension trunks. When using extension trunks, the following limitations apply. When using a single fan, up to one extension trunk (20) can be used on the intake side and up to two extension trunks (40) can be used on the discharge side. When using fans in series, the first fan in line can use up to one extension trunk (20) on the intake side and each fan beyond the first can have up to two trunks (40) on both the intake and the discharge side of the fan. There is no maximum number of fans that can be used in a series configuration. Smoke ejectors and trunks may be found in the Fire Equipment Building. If in-house power is unavailable, a portable generator is located on the Mezzanine level of the Turbine Building near the Condenser Vacuum Pump enclosure. 5.5 Portable sump pumps may be needed to remove excess water. When discharging to exterior plant areas, consideration should be given to potential contamination and hazardous chemical content. Water runoff in the Auxiliary Building and the CV should drain to their respective sumps and discharge to the Waste Holdup Tank. Additional guidance for Auxiliary Building and CV flooding may be found in AOP 032. 5.6 Where possible, smoke should be prevented from entering portions of the Auxiliary Build ing that are otherwise unaffected by the fire event. Smoke propagation into unaffected areas can increase the potential for inadvertent activation of detection and protection systems. This can also interfere with the performance of DSP actions, when implemented. When any activity requires that a fire door be blocked open during a firefighting evolution, the decision to do so must be carefully considered. For example, if there is a choice between advancing a hose line from the Auxiliary Building hallway into a room through a blocked-open fire door and advancing a hose line from the outside, through an exterior door, it is strongly recommended that hose lines be advanced from the exterior. 5.7 Entry into DSP-002 will result in loss of some plant equipment, including the motor driven fire pump. OMM-003 Rev. 56 Page 12 of 200
5.8 The concentrated discharge of Halon 1211 from portable fire extinguisher(s) on a fire can produce toxic by-products. If personnel are present in the fire room without protective breathing apparatus (such as a fire victim), usage of Halon 1211 should be restricted to the following amounts if fire room ventilation is not in progress: For a 17 lbs. hand held Halon 1211 Fire Extinguisher do not use the entire contents in less than 2120 cubic feet of air volume. For a 150 lbs wheeled Halon 1211 Fire Extinguisher, do not use the entire contents in less than 18,705 cubic feet of air volume. 5.9 When selecting access for fire attack, areas with two or more entry points have been ranked as primary, secondary and other. These rankings are based on factors such as safety of the fire brigade, availability to firefighting equipment, effects of smoke propagation, impact on fire suppression systems, doors that must be propped open, safe shutdown strategies, etc. Primary access is generally viewed as the best access point that will have the least impact on the fire brigade and plant, followed by the secondary access. Any remaining entry points are identified as other. Based on the location and dynamics of the fire, plant conditions and the location of responding fire brigade personnel, the FBIC can choose the direction and method of attack that is best suited for the evolving fire conditions. 5.10 The Fire Hydrants on Robinson Site use different colored hydrant tops to indicate which hydrant is supplied by which fire water system (NCR 330053): 5.10.1 Hydrants supplied by the Unit I Fire Water System have WHITE tops. 5.10.2 Hydrants supplied by the Unit 2 Fire Water System have RED tops. 5.10.3 Two hydrants west and south of the Unit 2 Primary Access Portal (PAP) West, Building 300, have WHITE tops. These hydrants are supplied from the Darlington County potable water system. 5.10.4 Several Fire Hydrants on Unit 1 and Unit 2 have identical Hydrant numbers without a unit designator. Personnel operating a fire hydrant must use all applicable human performance tools to ensure that the correct hydrant on the correct unit is being operated. OMM-003 Rev. 56 Page 13 of 200

- b. Large volumes of smoke will likely require venting to the outside through FDR-5. Venting smoke through FDR-26 is discouraged as it can spread into the Auxiliary Building and cause inadvertent Pre-Action Sprinkler System actuation.
Airborne contamination levels will need to be monitored before and during venting operations. Portable Ventilation Equipment is located in the Fire Equipment Building and in the Turbine Building at Mezzanine Level north of the Vacuum Pump Enclosure.
- 6. Potential RadiologicallToxic Hazards
- a. Low Level contamination possible
- b. Respiratory hazard due to toxic smoke and possible visual problem during fire
- c. Fire water runoff would discharge to the storms drains and require monitoring of the Settling Ponds.

ATTACHMENT 10.9 Page 1 of 1 CR EMERGENCY CONTROL QUICK START GUIDE NOTE: This is a summary level guide and does not replace the procedure steps.
- 1. Implement EALs as necessary. It is the expectation that the time between exceeding an EAL and declaration of event will not exceed 15 minutes, unless extraordinary conditions prevail. Annotate time of the off normal condition. Continue through the Matrix until a General Emergency has been identified, or until the Matrix has been reviewed.
- 2. Direct an Emergency Communicator to report to the Control Room at this time. This will support communication activities and augmentation of the ERO.
- 3. Proceed to AP-030, NRC Reporting Requirements, if there is no event classification.
- 4. Declare the highest event classification identified by announcing the event to the Control Room and that you are assuming role as the SEC.
This ends the 15 minute clock for the event declaration, and starts the 15 minute clock to notify the appropriate State and County agencies. Announce classification to the Site, as directed in this procedure.
- 5. Fill out the Emergency Notification Form. Detailed instructions are in EPNOT-01, CR/EOF Emergency Communicator.
- 6. Develop, approve, and FAX/communicate the Emergency Notification Form. Notify State and County agencies via Selective Signaling System or an alternate means. The notification clock stops after the first voice contact is established with an approved form. First contact is considered complete after site identification, type of message, and emergency classification is provided to the agency. This is the time entered on the Emergency Notification Form of EPNOT-01, CR/EOF Emergency Communicator.
- 7. Assess EALs for changing plant conditions.

- 75. G2.4.9OO Given the following plant conditions:
- Plant cooldown is in progress. RCS Temperature is at 290°F. - A LOCA has occurred. - CV pressure has increased to 1.4 psig. - A RHR pump is providing decay heat removal. - There is no indication of a rupture in the RHR System. - RCS letdown has been isolated. - Two charging pumps are running at maximum speed. - PZR level is 12% and lowering. - RCS subcooling is 40°F.
Which ONE (1) of the following completes the statement below? lAW AOP-033, Shutdown LOCA, the next step required to be performed for mitigation strategy is to A. check SI Pump Suction Line to RWST ANY REASON TO BELIEVE STEAM BOUND. B start the remaining Charging Pump and raise speed to maximum. C. verify available SI Pump Breakers - RACKED IN D. stop A RHR Pump. The correct answer is B. A. Incorrect If all three charging pumps were running at maximum speed with the indications given then this would be the correct answer. B. Correct AOP-033, Step 8, has the operator to check all charging pumps running at full speed if PZR level is lowering and letdown is isolated. C. Incorrect SI pump breakers are verified racked in once the SI pump suction line to RWST has been verified to not to be steam bound. AOP-016 directs the crew to trip the reactor and go to PATH-i if PZR level cannot be maintained with two charging pumps at maximum speed and letdown isolated. This makes starting a SI pump a plausible distractor. C. Incorrect. Flow should not be raised when indications of cavitation exists. The normal flow specified in AOP-020 is 3000 gpm to 3750 gpm, so a rise in flow would still be in band. The second part of the distractor is correct. D. Incorrect A RHR pump would be stopped if PZR level is less than 10% or RCS subcooling is less than 35°F. These conditions are not met, however, PZR level is continuing to lower.
