Ob.iective To specify the minimum frequency ano type of surveillance to be applied to critical plant equipment and conditions. Specifications Equipment and sampling tests shall be conducted as specified in Tables 3-4 and 3-5. Basis The equipment testing and system sampling frequencies specified in I T ables 3-4 and 3-5 are considered adequate, based upon experience, to maintain the status of the equipment and systems so as to assure safe , operation. Thus, those systems where changes might occur relatively rapidly are sampled frequently and those static systems not subject to changes are sampled less frequently. The control room air treatment system consists of high efficiency particulate air filters (HEPA) and the charcoal adsorbers. HEPA filters are installed before the charcoal adsorbers to prevent clogging of the iodine adsorbers. The charcoal adsorbers are ; installed to reduce the potential intake of iodine to the centrol ' room. . The in-place test results will confirm system integrity and performance. The laboratory carben sample tests results should , indicate methyl iodide removal efficiency of at least 90 percent for expected accident ccnditions. The spent fuel storage-decontamination areas air treatment system is designed to filter the building atmosphere to the auxiliary building vent during refueling cperations. The charcoal adsorbers are installed to reduce the potential release of radioicdine to the environment. In-place testing is performed to confirm the integrity of the filter system. The charcoal aosorbers are periedically sampled t to insure capability for the removal of radioactive iodine. . 3-17 Amendment tio. 15, 67, 122 l l l

- Discussion, Justification and No Significant
,. Hazard' Consideration- 'The proposed changes to Technical Specifications Section 2.19, page 2-90; Section 3.2, pages-3-17, 3-17a, 3-20, 3-20a, 3-20b and 3-20c; Section 2.12, page 2-59; Section 3.16, pages 3-84 and 3-85 are required to incorporate modifications that will be made to the Control Room Air Treatment system and i supporting radiological dose calculations. '
The Control Room Air Treatment System must meet the requirements of-10 CFR 50, Appendix A, General Design Criterion 19 (GDC 19), NUREG 0737,-Item 111.0.3.4, Standard Review Plant (SRP) 6.4, and Regulatory Guide (R.G.) 1.52. A control room survey was conducted by the NRC at Fort Calhoun Station in October,-1987. The survey determined that an excessive amount of unfiltered air was being-pulled into the control room envelope. Calculations performed by 0 PPD indicated that these amounts of unfiltered air would result in operators ]- receiving more than the 30 REM thyroid dose limit allowed in a 30 day period post accident. Interim measures were taken to protect the operators while OPPD evaluated the Control Room Air Treatment system. Several modifications were made to the system to reduce air inleakage but it is necessary to replace the existing charcoal filter train to reduce radioactive iodine to acceptable levels, i The existing single, 90% efficient charcoal filter unit is being replaced by I two, full capacity 99% efficient filter trains. Calculations using the ! increased efficiency show that the new filters will reduce exposures to the i operators below the GDC 19 dose limits from the combination of all sources of l airborne radiation. The reduced RHR system leakage is also required as. j discussed below. A change to the Technical Specifications is necessary to ; revise the carbon testing requirements to conform to those given in R.G. 1.52 and ANSI N510-1980 used by the testing laboratories. Since the installation of the new charcoal filter units in room 81 will l introduce an increased fire load in the area, the filters are equipped with 1 fire detection and deluge systems that are designed to alert the operators and extinguish any fires without reliance on existing fire protection equipment in ; the area. Two new fire zones are being added to the Technical Specifications to conform to the modification of the fire system caused by the addition of the new air filter system. =i The current Technical Specification 3.16 allows a maximum leak rate of one i gallon per minute (1 gpm) for the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) system. Yet, if , a design basis-LOCA would occur, the Thyroid dose to control room operators , would exceed GDC-19 limits as further defined by SRP 6.4, even if the proposed ' ventilation filters design basis of 99% efficiency was met. Therefore, to achieve maximum protection to the operating staff and validate the design basis for the control room air filter system modification, a maximum RHR leak rate of 1243 cc/hr must be incorporated into Section 3.16 of the Technical Specifications. The Technical Specification change will close out item 5 of Safety Analysis for Operability (SA0) # 89-02. The section 3.16 change is proposed to assure allowed leakage from the Residual Heat Removal System does not adversely effect control room habitability. Surveillance Requirement 3.16(2)a. now allows a leakage rate of one gallon per minute. This value is to be changed to 1243 cc/hr, based on an analysis by
, Combustion Engineering; this is the maximum expected from the safety injection system at Fort Calhoun.
r i
.4 # In addition, the wording is changed in 3.16(2)a to indicate the 1243 cc/hr ', leakrate-is verified-at the. hydrostatic test pressures described in 3.16(1)a.
and 3.16(1)b.'rather than the normal hydrostatic head from the SIRW tank. A statement is'added to the Basis section of 3.16, page 3-84 to indicate the
' proposed new allowable RHR leakage is required to limit post accident radioiodine levels in the control room. Section 8.16, page 3-85 also makes reference to the 1 gpm leakrate being high enough to be promptly detected. The District proposes to strike this statement as discussed below.
The district proposes an administrative change _to page 2-59 2.12(4), Control Room Systems,-Control Room Air Treatment. This administrative change clarifies-the control room air treatment operability requirements by replacing the legalese statement with the words from the Standard Technical Specifications. A typographical error is corrected on page 3-84, (1)a., or is changed to on, j No Significant Hazards Consideration This proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazard consideration i because the operation of Fort Calhoun Station in accordance with this amendment would not: !
- 1. Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an ;
accident previously evaluated.
-The charcoal contained in the new filter units will increase the fire loading in Room 81. However, the new fire loading sources will be ,
equipped with new detection, monitoring, and deluge systems. The ! existing filter system is not equipped with fire detection, so this represents an increased level of fire detection capability. Therefore, j the fire detection and suppression capabilities for the plant will not be ! degraded, and the consequences of an accident previously evaluated will-not be increased. Dose calculations show that the new filter system will prevent the operators from exceeding the 10 CFR 50 Appendix A GDC 19 dose limits from the combination of all sources of airborne radioactive iodine in conjunction with the reduced RHR system leakrate. l
- - 'The consequences of an accident previously analyzed will not be increased because the testing requirements given in Table 3-5 are being increased, ;
resulting in a more efficient filter thus lowering the doses in the ! control room. ! Decreasing the allowable RHR system leakage will only decrease the consequences of any accidents previously analyzed simply because of a l reduced release of radioactivity. This change will not increase the probability of any accident previously evaluated since the system ' operation and configuration remain the same and the surveillance test acceptance criteria is more restrictive by lowering the allowable system leakage. The change in test conditions in Section 3.16(2)a. is only editorial in
-nature to more accurately state the conditions under which the leak rate is measured. The statement added to the Basis Section of 3.16 is also editorial in nature to provide additional background information and show relation to control room habitability.
g # F1
- 1 ' t A + : 2.. Create-the-possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any
- c ' accident-previously evaluated..
The addition of two new fire detection zones will not create a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated since there will be new monitoring and deluge systems installed for each new area. The new filtration system will consist of redundant 99% efficient units rather than the single 90% efficient configuration that currently g exists. This does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.
. Reduction of the allowable RHR system leakage only strengthens the surveillance of the system which in turn will ensure at least the same- . level of system integrity.which exists under the current allowable leakrate. Furthermore, since no new or different modes of operation are -
proposed, no new or different kinds of accider.ts could be created I considering the continued use of the existing Technical Specifications' administrative controls for operation of the plant.
- 3. Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.-
The new monitoring and deluge systems for each unit are designed to alert , the operators and extinguish any fires without reliance on any existing _ fire protection equipment in-the area. Since the units are equipped with , their own monitoring and deluge systems, the margin of safety of any 1 existing system is not reduced. Dose calculations show that the existing single 90% efficient filer unit does not provide enough iodine removal capacity to achieve the design doselimitof.30 REM (SRP6.4)tothethyroid. In addition, a review of ! the design requirements stated in R.G. 1.52 showed the existing i filtration system and associated isolation dampers to not meet the ' redundancy criteria. i
- The new redundant 99% filter trains and associated bubble atight dampers,
-combined with the reduction in allowable RHR system leakage, will provide the required iodine removal to meet the dose limit as-well as all design requirements of R.G. 1.52, (i.e., redundancy, local and remote indication, humidity control, etc.).
O j The proposed reduction of the allowable RHR system leakage from 1 gom to - 1243 cc/hr reduces the postulated radiological consequences to the plant ; staff and the general public. The potential doses are well within the : requirements of 10 CFR 100.11 and GDC 19. l Section 3.16, page 3-85 states that the current one gpm leakrate is sufficiently high to permit prompt detection and to allow for reasonable leakage from the system and yet small enough to be easily handled by the pumps and radioactive waste system. Since the Technical Specifications do not set _a minimum RHR system leakage, credit for a certain level of j leakage to allow prompt detection appears to have no basis. The proposed lower leakrate is also more consistent with the historical "as found" condition of the system. Therefore, reduction of the allowable leakrate will not reduce the margin of safety of the system. Therefore, it can be concluded that the new filtration system and reduction of the allowable RHR System leakage will not reduce the margin of safety.
