Mr.-Harold R. Denton, Director Office.of Nuclear Reactor Regylation U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555 Attention:    Ms. E. G. Adensam, Chief Licensing Branch No. 4 Re:  Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 Docket Nos. 50-413 and 50-414 Proof and Review Technical Specifications
 
==Dear Mr.-Denton:==
 
This letter is in response to your October 10, 1985 letter which transmitted the Proof and Review Technical Specifications for Catawba Units 1 and 2 and supplements my letter of October 30, 1985.
Attached are corrections to errors found by our ongoing review. Also enclosed are modifications to the changes requested in my May 7, 1985 letter concerning the ice' condenser door specification. These changes are necessary in order to clarify the intent of the change request. The intent was that the doors would be incap.atte of opening automatically only when they are blocked closed by some mec:;nical obstruction, not by ice, frost or some slight increase in door opening torque.
If you have any questions regarding this response please contact Mr. Roger W.
Quellette at (704)373-7530.
Very truly yours, S.

3/4.6.5 ICE CONDENSER
                                                            ~
The requirements associated with each of the components of the ice con-i
              - denser ensure that the overa11' system will be available to provide sufficient p                pressure suppression capability to limit the containment peak pressure tran-sient to.less than 14.7 psig during LOCA conditions.
3/4.6.5.1 ICE BED will:  The OPERABILITY of the ice bed ensures that the required ice inventory (1) be distributed evenly through the containment bays (2) contain sufficient boron to preclude dilution of the containment sump following the
                .LOCA, and (3) contain sufficient heat removal capability to condense the Reactor Coolant System volume released during a LOCA.
i with the assumptions used in the safety analyses.These conditions are consistent
+
The minimum weight figure of 1218 pounds of ice per basket contains a 10%
conservative allowance for ice loss through sublimation which is a factor of-10 higher than assumed for the ice condenser design. The minimum total weight of 2,368,652 pounds of ice also contains an additional 1% conservative allowance to account for' systematic error in the weighing instruments. In the event that
.              observed subitmation rates are equal to or lower than design predictions after 2~
3 years of operation, the minimum ice baskets weight may be adjusted downward.
In addition, the number of ice baskets required to be weighed each 9 months may be reduced after.3 years of operation if such a reduction is supported by observed sublimation data.
3/4.6.5.2 ICE BED TEMPERATURE MONITORING SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the Ice Bed Temperature Monitoring System ensures that the capability is available for monitoring the ice temperature.      In the event the system is inoperable, the ACTION requirements provide assurance that the ice bed heat removal capacity will be retained within the specified time limits.
              '_3/4. 6. 5. 3 ICE CONDENSER DOORS b        The OPERASILITY of the ice condenser doors and the requirement that they t
y  be maintained closed ensures that the Reactor Coolant System fluid released d during a LOCA will be diverted through the ice condenser bays for heat removal
          .b  and    that excessive sublimation of the ice bed will not occur because of warm r intrusion.
3/4.6.5.4 INLET 000R POSITION MONITORING SYSTEM              .
The OPERABILITY of the Inlet Door Position Monitoring System ensures that 1
the capability is available for monitoring the individual inlet door position.
'            In the event the system is inoperable, the ACTION requirements provide assur-ance that the ice bed heat removal capacity will be retained within the spec-fied time limits.

The OPERABILITY of the radiation monitoring instrumentation for plant operations ensures that:
(1) the associated action will be initiated when the i                                  radiation level monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its
* i                                  Setpoint. (2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained, and (3) suffi-
!                                  cient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out-of-service for testing or maintenance. The radiation monitors for plant operations senses radiation levels in selected plant systems and locations and determines whether or not predetermined limits are being exceeded. If they are, the signals are combined into logic matrices sensitive to combinations indicative of various                                                                                                                                  i i

Mr.-Harold R. Denton, Director Office.of Nuclear Reactor Regylation U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555 Attention: Ms. E. G. Adensam, Chief Licensing Branch No. 4 Re: Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 Docket Nos. 50-413 and 50-414 Proof and Review Technical Specifications

Dear Mr.-Denton:

This letter is in response to your October 10, 1985 letter which transmitted the Proof and Review Technical Specifications for Catawba Units 1 and 2 and supplements my letter of October 30, 1985.

Attached are corrections to errors found by our ongoing review. Also enclosed are modifications to the changes requested in my May 7, 1985 letter concerning the ice' condenser door specification. These changes are necessary in order to clarify the intent of the change request. The intent was that the doors would be incap.atte of opening automatically only when they are blocked closed by some mec:;nical obstruction, not by ice, frost or some slight increase in door opening torque.

If you have any questions regarding this response please contact Mr. Roger W.

Quellette at (704)373-7530.

Very truly yours, S.

l BASES y

3/4.6.5 ICE CONDENSER

~

The requirements associated with each of the components of the ice con-i

- denser ensure that the overa11' system will be available to provide sufficient p pressure suppression capability to limit the containment peak pressure tran-sient to.less than 14.7 psig during LOCA conditions.

3/4.6.5.1 ICE BED will: The OPERABILITY of the ice bed ensures that the required ice inventory (1) be distributed evenly through the containment bays (2) contain sufficient boron to preclude dilution of the containment sump following the

.LOCA, and (3) contain sufficient heat removal capability to condense the Reactor Coolant System volume released during a LOCA.

i with the assumptions used in the safety analyses.These conditions are consistent

+

The minimum weight figure of 1218 pounds of ice per basket contains a 10%

conservative allowance for ice loss through sublimation which is a factor of-10 higher than assumed for the ice condenser design. The minimum total weight of 2,368,652 pounds of ice also contains an additional 1% conservative allowance to account for' systematic error in the weighing instruments. In the event that

. observed subitmation rates are equal to or lower than design predictions after 2~

3 years of operation, the minimum ice baskets weight may be adjusted downward.

In addition, the number of ice baskets required to be weighed each 9 months may be reduced after.3 years of operation if such a reduction is supported by observed sublimation data.

3/4.6.5.2 ICE BED TEMPERATURE MONITORING SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the Ice Bed Temperature Monitoring System ensures that the capability is available for monitoring the ice temperature. In the event the system is inoperable, the ACTION requirements provide assurance that the ice bed heat removal capacity will be retained within the specified time limits.

'_3/4. 6. 5. 3 ICE CONDENSER DOORS b The OPERASILITY of the ice condenser doors and the requirement that they t

y be maintained closed ensures that the Reactor Coolant System fluid released d during a LOCA will be diverted through the ice condenser bays for heat removal

.b and that excessive sublimation of the ice bed will not occur because of warm r intrusion.

3/4.6.5.4 INLET 000R POSITION MONITORING SYSTEM .

The OPERABILITY of the Inlet Door Position Monitoring System ensures that 1

the capability is available for monitoring the individual inlet door position.

' In the event the system is inoperable, the ACTION requirements provide assur-ance that the ice bed heat removal capacity will be retained within the spec-fied time limits.

The OPERABILITY of the radiation monitoring instrumentation for plant operations ensures that:

(1) the associated action will be initiated when the i radiation level monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its

  • i Setpoint. (2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained, and (3) suffi-

! cient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out-of-service for testing or maintenance. The radiation monitors for plant operations senses radiation levels in selected plant systems and locations and determines whether or not predetermined limits are being exceeded. If they are, the signals are combined into logic matrices sensitive to combinations indicative of various i i

accidents and abnormal conditions. Once the required logic combination is i J

completed, the system sends actuation signals to inftfate alarms or automatic i isolation action and actuation of Emergency Exhaust or Ventilation Systems, t
