According to10CFR50.92(c),
aproposedamendment toanoperating licenseinvolvesnosignificant hazardsconsideration ifoperation ofthefacilityinaccordance withtheproposedamendment wouldnot:1.involveasignificant increaseintheprobability ofoccurrence orconsequences ofanaccidentpreviously evaluated; 2.createthepossibility ofanewordifferent kindofaccidentfromanypreviously analyzed; or3.involveasignificant reduction inamarginofsafety.I&MproposestoreviseT/S3/4.8.1.2, "Electrical PowerSystems,Shutdown,"
anditsassociated basestoprovideaone-timeextension ofthe18-monthsurveillance intervalforspecificsurveillance requirements (SRs).Inaddition, forunit2only,aminoradministrative changeisincludedtodeleteareference toT/S4.0.8thatisnolongerapplicable.
Forunit1only,aneditorial correction ismade.Thedetermination thatthecriteriasetforthin10CFR50.92aremetforthisamendment requestisindicated below.1.Doesthechangeinvolveasignificant increaseintheprobability ofoccurrence orconsequences ofanaccidentpreviously evaluated?
Adiscussion ofeachoftheapplicable accidents follows.FuelhandlinaccidentTheonlytimeafuelhandlingaccidentcouldoccurisduringthehandlingofafuelassembly.
Thedesignoffuelhandlingequipment issuchthataninterruption ofA.C.powerwouldnotcauseafuelelementtobeinadvertently dropped.Therefore, aninterruption orlossofA.C.powerdoesnotsignificantly increasetheprobability ofafuelhandlingaccident.
Atpresent,fissionproductactivities inthefuelassemblypellet-to-cladding gapsaregreatlyreduced.Thefuelhandlingaccidentanalysisconsiders thethyroiddoseatthesiteboundaryandinthelowpopulation zone.Thisdoseisdominated bytheisotopeiodine131,whichalsodecaysmoreslowlythantheotheriodinecontributors tothedose.Theactivityofiodine131decreases byone-halfevery8.05days.Thecurrentshutdownperiodofapproximately 18monthsrepresents over70half-lives.
Activityofaradioactive materialisgenerally considered tobenegligible after7half-lives (areduction inactivityof1/128).Bycontrast, theaccidentanalysisassumesaniodinereduction oflessthan1/10(fromactivated charcoalfiltration) inthefuelhandlingbuilding, andnoreduction inthecontainment, priortorelease.Therefore, theconsequences ofafuelhandling Attachment 4TOAEP:NRC:1322 Page2accidentareclearlyboundedbytheexistingsafetyanalysiswithouttakingcreditforanyiodineremovalbycharcoalfiltration.
Thegreatlyreducedfissionproductactivityatthecurrenttimeprovidesassurance thattheconsequences ofthiseventareboundedbytheexistinganalysis.
Therefore, theconsequences arenotsignificantly increased.
Accidental releaseofradioactive liuidsTheinadvertent releaseofradioactive liquidwastestotheenvironment wasevaluated forthewasteevaporator condensate andmonitortanks,condensate storagetank,primarywaterstoragetank,refueling waterstoragetank(RWST),theauxiliary buildingstoragetanksandthechemicalandvolumecontrolsystem(CVCS)holduptanks.Itwasconcluded, intheUFSARChapter14evaluation, thatlossofliquidfromthesetankstotheenvironment isnotacredibleaccident.
Thisconclusion doesnotdependonoperating mode,hence,furtherevaluation ofthiseventisnotrequired.
WasteasreleaseRadioactive gasesareintroduced intothereactorcoolantbytheescapeoffissionproductsifdefectsexistinthefuelcladding.
Theprocessing ofthereactorcoolantbyauxiliary systemsresultsintheaccumulation ofradioactive gasesinvarioustanks.Thetwomainsourcesofanysignificant gaseousradioactivity thatcouldoccurwouldbethevolumecontroltank(VCT)andthegasdecaytanks.Itisassumedthat'atankrupturesbyanunspecified mechanism afterthereactorhasbeenoperating foronecorecyclewith1%defectsinthefuelcladding.
Thereisnoidentified mechanism bywhichaninterruption orlossofpowercouldresultinatankrupture.Therefore, itisconcluded thattheprobability ofoccurrence ofatankrupturewouldnotbesignificantly increased byaninterruption orlossofA.C.power.Thegreatlyreducedfissionproductactivities atthecurrenttimeprovidesassurance thattheconsequences ofthiseventareboundedbythecurrentanalysisandwould,therefore, notbesignificantly increased.
Uncontrolled rodclustercontrolassembl(RCCA)withdrawal fromasubcritical condition Thiseventcanonlyoccur,withthereactortripbreakersclosedandthecontrolroddrivemechanisms (CRDMs)energized.
Withtheexception oftestingorspecialma'ntenance, theroddrivemotorgenerator setremainstaggedoutuntilMode3andthisalonewouldprecluderodmovement.
Iftheconditions forrodwithdrawal aremet,twooperablesourcerangeinstruments andtworeactortripchannelsandtripbreakersmustbeoperable.
Aninterruption orlossofpowerwouldprecludeCRDMmovementandreleasethecontrolrods.Thesourcerangeinstruments wouldremainavailable.
Therefore, itisconcluded thattheprobability ofoccurrence ofanuncontrolled RCCAwithdrawal wouldnotbesignificantly increased byaninterruption orlossofA.C.powerinModes5or6.Acceptable consequences forthiseventrelyonprecluding itsoccurrence.

Attachment 4TOAEP:NRC:1322 Page1NoSinificantHazardsConsideration Evaluation I&Mhasevaluated thisproposedamendment anddetermined thatitinvolvesnosignificant hazardsconsideration.

According to10CFR50.92(c),

aproposedamendment toanoperating licenseinvolvesnosignificant hazardsconsideration ifoperation ofthefacilityinaccordance withtheproposedamendment wouldnot:1.involveasignificant increaseintheprobability ofoccurrence orconsequences ofanaccidentpreviously evaluated; 2.createthepossibility ofanewordifferent kindofaccidentfromanypreviously analyzed; or3.involveasignificant reduction inamarginofsafety.I&MproposestoreviseT/S3/4.8.1.2, "Electrical PowerSystems,Shutdown,"

anditsassociated basestoprovideaone-timeextension ofthe18-monthsurveillance intervalforspecificsurveillance requirements (SRs).Inaddition, forunit2only,aminoradministrative changeisincludedtodeleteareference toT/S4.0.8thatisnolongerapplicable.

Forunit1only,aneditorial correction ismade.Thedetermination thatthecriteriasetforthin10CFR50.92aremetforthisamendment requestisindicated below.1.Doesthechangeinvolveasignificant increaseintheprobability ofoccurrence orconsequences ofanaccidentpreviously evaluated?

Adiscussion ofeachoftheapplicable accidents follows.FuelhandlinaccidentTheonlytimeafuelhandlingaccidentcouldoccurisduringthehandlingofafuelassembly.

Thedesignoffuelhandlingequipment issuchthataninterruption ofA.C.powerwouldnotcauseafuelelementtobeinadvertently dropped.Therefore, aninterruption orlossofA.C.powerdoesnotsignificantly increasetheprobability ofafuelhandlingaccident.

Atpresent,fissionproductactivities inthefuelassemblypellet-to-cladding gapsaregreatlyreduced.Thefuelhandlingaccidentanalysisconsiders thethyroiddoseatthesiteboundaryandinthelowpopulation zone.Thisdoseisdominated bytheisotopeiodine131,whichalsodecaysmoreslowlythantheotheriodinecontributors tothedose.Theactivityofiodine131decreases byone-halfevery8.05days.Thecurrentshutdownperiodofapproximately 18monthsrepresents over70half-lives.

Activityofaradioactive materialisgenerally considered tobenegligible after7half-lives (areduction inactivityof1/128).Bycontrast, theaccidentanalysisassumesaniodinereduction oflessthan1/10(fromactivated charcoalfiltration) inthefuelhandlingbuilding, andnoreduction inthecontainment, priortorelease.Therefore, theconsequences ofafuelhandling Attachment 4TOAEP:NRC:1322 Page2accidentareclearlyboundedbytheexistingsafetyanalysiswithouttakingcreditforanyiodineremovalbycharcoalfiltration.

Thegreatlyreducedfissionproductactivityatthecurrenttimeprovidesassurance thattheconsequences ofthiseventareboundedbytheexistinganalysis.

Therefore, theconsequences arenotsignificantly increased.

Accidental releaseofradioactive liuidsTheinadvertent releaseofradioactive liquidwastestotheenvironment wasevaluated forthewasteevaporator condensate andmonitortanks,condensate storagetank,primarywaterstoragetank,refueling waterstoragetank(RWST),theauxiliary buildingstoragetanksandthechemicalandvolumecontrolsystem(CVCS)holduptanks.Itwasconcluded, intheUFSARChapter14evaluation, thatlossofliquidfromthesetankstotheenvironment isnotacredibleaccident.

Thisconclusion doesnotdependonoperating mode,hence,furtherevaluation ofthiseventisnotrequired.

WasteasreleaseRadioactive gasesareintroduced intothereactorcoolantbytheescapeoffissionproductsifdefectsexistinthefuelcladding.

Theprocessing ofthereactorcoolantbyauxiliary systemsresultsintheaccumulation ofradioactive gasesinvarioustanks.Thetwomainsourcesofanysignificant gaseousradioactivity thatcouldoccurwouldbethevolumecontroltank(VCT)andthegasdecaytanks.Itisassumedthat'atankrupturesbyanunspecified mechanism afterthereactorhasbeenoperating foronecorecyclewith1%defectsinthefuelcladding.

Thereisnoidentified mechanism bywhichaninterruption orlossofpowercouldresultinatankrupture.Therefore, itisconcluded thattheprobability ofoccurrence ofatankrupturewouldnotbesignificantly increased byaninterruption orlossofA.C.power.Thegreatlyreducedfissionproductactivities atthecurrenttimeprovidesassurance thattheconsequences ofthiseventareboundedbythecurrentanalysisandwould,therefore, notbesignificantly increased.

Uncontrolled rodclustercontrolassembl(RCCA)withdrawal fromasubcritical condition Thiseventcanonlyoccur,withthereactortripbreakersclosedandthecontrolroddrivemechanisms (CRDMs)energized.

Withtheexception oftestingorspecialma'ntenance, theroddrivemotorgenerator setremainstaggedoutuntilMode3andthisalonewouldprecluderodmovement.

Iftheconditions forrodwithdrawal aremet,twooperablesourcerangeinstruments andtworeactortripchannelsandtripbreakersmustbeoperable.

Aninterruption orlossofpowerwouldprecludeCRDMmovementandreleasethecontrolrods.Thesourcerangeinstruments wouldremainavailable.

Therefore, itisconcluded thattheprobability ofoccurrence ofanuncontrolled RCCAwithdrawal wouldnotbesignificantly increased byaninterruption orlossofA.C.powerinModes5or6.Acceptable consequences forthiseventrelyonprecluding itsoccurrence.
