Determine Applicable Seismic Hazard Assessment: | |||
Extreme External Hazard The seismic criteria for Oconee Nuclear Station (ONS) include two design response spectra: Maximum Hypothetical Earthquake (MHE) and Input the hazards applicable Design Basis Earthquake (DBE), also referred to as Safe Shutdown to the site; seismic, external Earthquake (SSE) and Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) respectively. | |||
flood. high winds. snow. ice. The Peak Ground Acceleration for the MHE and the DBE are 0.1 Og and cold, high temps. Describe 0.05g, respectively for structures founded on rock. For structures how NE/ 12-06 Sections 5 - 9 founded on overburden, the Peak Ground Acceleration for the MHE for were applied and the basis for Class 1 Structures is 0.15g (Reference 61 ). These values constitute the why the plant screened out for design basis of ONS. Per NEI 12-06, Section 5.2, all sites will consider certain hazards seismic hazard in their FLEX strategies. | |||
Ref: NEI 12-06, S.ection 4.0 -9.0 External Flood Assessment: | |||
JLD-ISG-2012-01, Section 1.0 ONS has extensive licensing consideration, analysis, correspondence and pending actions with respect to flooding. There are two separate external flooding events that potentially put water in the ONS yard. One of the current licensing basis external floods is a local intense precipitation event defined by the UFSAR Section 2.4.2.2. The other flooding event is defined in the June 22, 2010 Confirmatory Action Letter (CAL) as a postulated upstream dam failure (Reference 14). Both of these modeled scenarios produce flooding in the ONS yard. | |||
Maximum external flood levels in the yard are bounded by a postulated upstream dam failure. Since the CAL was submitted, ONS has taken defense in depth steps by constructing two flood protection features. | |||
These two features keep portions of the site dry and limit water heights in the yard. These features are not credited in ONS current licensing basi~. However, additional analysis has been performed to prove these added features lower the modeled w~ter heights (Reference 48). | |||
Separate an.alysis is currently underway to define new flooding hazards for both the local intense precipitation event (Open Item I) and the sunny day upstream dam failure event (Open Item 2). These analyses are driven by the NRC 10 CFR 50.54(f) Recommendation 2.1, Flood Hazard Reevaluation. Therefore, ONS will consider a flood event in its FLEX strategies. | |||
High Wind Hazard Assessment: | |||
Using Figures 7-1 and 7-2 from NEI 12-06, it was determined the ONS site is in Region 3 which indicates tornado winds should not exceed 179 mph. However, hurricane winds could produce 140 mph peak gusts. | |||
Therefore, ONS will consider a high wind hazard. | |||
Extreme Cold Assessment: | |||
Per NEI 12-06 Section 8, ONS will consider between 8 and 10 inches of snow and is considered a Level 5 (most severe) in ice storm severity: | |||
meaning there is potential for catastrophic destruction to power lines and/or existence of extreme amounts of ice. | |||
Extreme High Temperature Assessment: | |||
Per NEI 12-06 Section 9, all sites will consider temperatures in excess of 110 °f. | |||
The applicable extreme external hazards at ONS are Seismic, Flood, High Wind, Extreme Cold, and Extreme High Temperatures. | |||

In other words, it is assumed that the seismic re-evaluation does not Ref: NEI 12-06, Section 3.2.l adversely impact the equipment that forms a part of the ONS FLEX strategy. Any changes to the seismic design basis may require a change to the plans in the ONS response to Order EA-12-049. | |||
: 3. Systems, structures, and components (SSC) will be considered seismically robust if they: | |||
* Are constructed to ONS QA- I or Category I criteria, | |||
* Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using Seismic Qualification Utility Group (SQUG) procedures, | |||
* Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using EPRI 1012023, Experience Based Seismic Verification Guidelines for Piping Systems, | |||
* Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using EPRI I 019199, Experience Based Seismic Verification Guidelines for Piping and Tubing Systems, | |||
* Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using other industry recognized codes like A WW A D 100, or | |||
* Are demonstrated via a shake table. | |||
: 4. Personnel access to and qualification of equipment that forms a part of the FLEX strategy assumes no core damage. | |||
: 5. For events with no advance warning, per NEI 12-06 Section 12 .1, on-site resources will be used to cope with the first two phases of the event and for a minimum of the first 24 hours of the event. | |||
Emergency Response Organization (ERO) personnel are assumed to begin arriving at 6 hours and the site ERO will be staffed at 24 hours after the event. | |||
: 6. Phase 3 resources (personnel and equipment) are assumed to start arriving within 24 hours in accordance with the Regional Resource Center (RRC) playbook (Open Item 9). All resources from the RRC are assumed to be available within 72 hours. | |||
: 7. This plan defines strategies capable of mitigating a simultaneous loss of all alternating current (AC) power and loss of normal access to the ultimate heat sink resulting from a beyond-design-basis external event (BDBEE) by providing adequate capability to maintain or restore core cooling, containment, and Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) cooling capabilities at all units on a site. Though specific strategies are being developed, due to the inability to anticipate all possible scenarios, the strategies are also diverse and flexible to encompass a wide range of possible conditions.

The plant Technical Specifications contain the limiting conditions for normal unit operations to ensure that design safety features are available to respond to a design basis accident and direct the required actions to be taken when the limiting conditions are not met. The result of the beyond-design-basis event may place the plant in a condition where it cannot comply with certain Technical Specifications and/or with its Security Plan, and, as such, may warrant invocation of 10 CFR 50.54(x) and/or 10 CFR 73.55(p). | |||
: 8. The flood re-evaluation pursuant to the 10 CFR 50.54(t) letter of March 12, 2012 is not completed, and therefore not assumed in this submittal. Defense in depth measures have been put in place to minimize flood levels onsite in response to the CAL for upstream dam failure. Based on analysis of the effects of the defense in depth measures, flood levels onsite are estimated to peak at 4.9 feet (Reference 48). For conservatism, a maximum flood level of 10 feet (Elevation 806') will be utilized in the development of mitigating strategies (Open Item 2). | |||

The SSF Auxiliary Service Water (ASW) system provides auxiliary feedwater flow independent of the main feedwater, emergency feedwater, and station auxiliary feedwater systems. | |||
The SSF system: | |||
* Normally aligned to 4160V switchgear for house loads from the unit 2 main feeder bus. | |||
* During emergency operation the SSF electrical equipment is independent of plant electrical equipment. | |||
* SSF pumps are independent of plant equipment. | |||
* Oconee's Phase I Coping Strategy assumes, during a complete loss of AC power event, that all three Units' Turbine Driven Emergency Feedwater (TDEFW) Pumps are also instantly unavailable at T=O. (Any one TDEFW Pump can be aligned to any or all three Units). | |||
In an SSF mitigated event, the SSF is not connected to the offsite or onsite emergency AC power systems. Procedures, protective relaying, and interlocks ensure SSF systems are only supplied from the SSF (Reference 30, 11_, and 42). | |||

At the initiation of the event, operators will enter the Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP) | |||
(Reference 51 ). During the performance of immediate manual actions, an operator on each affected unit will be dispatched to the SSF. The control room supervisor (CRS) will transfer to the station blackout tab of the EOP and attempt to regain power by running the restoration of power enclosure. The FLEX support guidelines (FSGs) will be implemented (Open Item 4) when the enclosure actions fail to restore power and it becomes apparent that power restoration is not achievable in the near term. | |||
The SSF is designed to operate for 72 hours (UFSAR 9.6.3.2 RCS Makeup System). The Phase 1 reliance on the SSF will only be as long as needed to deploy the Phase 2 FLEX equipment.

The SSF ASW pump will take suction from the CCW intake crossover line and discharge to both steam generators on each unit. RCS pressure will be maintained between 1950 and 2250 psig with an RCS temperature of 550 to 555°F (Reference 30). When the determination is made to enter FSGs due to an ELAP, the SSF operator will isolate letdown and begin an RCS cool down using SSF ASW and plant ADV s (Open Item 10). The atmospheric dump. valves are manual valves located in the turbine building on the 5th floor. An assessment will be completed to verify the seismic robustness of the ADV s and adequate accessibility after an event (Open Item 11 ). | |||
Pressurizer level will be maintained and cool down rate will be established, limited only by the ability to maintain pressurizer level on scale (Open Item 10). | |||
Flood: | |||
At the initiation of the event, operators will enter the approved abnormal procedure for flood mitigation. | |||
All three units will begin shutdown. Operations will run three enclosures simultaneously. (Reference 25) | |||
The CRS enclosure: trips unit, borates RCS to Cold Shutdown (CSD) conditions, closes Core Flood Tank (CFT) isolation valves, increases levels in Pzr and SGs, and begins plant cool down to 240 - 250°F. | |||
The Operations Shift Manager (OSM) enclosure: activates operational support center/ technical support center (OSC/TSC), classifies event, conducts site assembly, requests increased staffing, and directs SFP monitoring. | |||
The Work Control Center Senior Reactor Operator (WCC SRO) enclosure: dispatches operators and maintenance to align portable pump and notifies Security. A change will be made to the WCC SRO enclosure to notify Maintenance, Single Point of Contact (SPOC) to pre-stage the FLEX portable instrumentation in the Penetration Rooms (Open Item 4). | |||

Provide a general description of the coping strategies using on-site portable equipment including station modifications that are proposed to maintain core cooling. ldentijj; methods and strategies utilized to achieve this coping time. | |||
Seismic: | |||
Phase 2 Core cooling will be achieved with a high capacity low head portable diesel driven pump. The pump suction will come from the plant intake canal at a location separate from the intake pump structure (Figure 1). The discharge will be into one of two SG feed options. | |||
Primary Strategy: Station ASW feed lines through the existing tap upstream of the units manual throttle valves (Figure 3). This single tap feeds a header that supplies all three units (Open Item 13 ). | |||
Note: When the new Protected Service Water (PSW) modification is completed the Station ASW line will be replaced with a PSW line that will perform the same function (Open Item 17). | |||
Alternate Strategy: Three individual unit connections to the SSF ASW, upstream of the SSF ASW control valves (Open Item 13) (Figure 4). | |||
Flood: | |||
Phase 2 Core cooling will be achieved with a high capacity low head portable diesel driven pump. The pump suction will come from Chemical Treatment Pond 1 (CTP-1 ). The discharge will be into one of two SG feed options (Figure 2). | |||
Primary Strategy: Station ASW feed lines through the existing tap upstream of the units manual throttle valves (Figure 3). When the new Protected Service Water (PSW) modification is completed, the Station ASW line will be replaced with a PSW line that will perform the same function (Open Item 15). | |||
Alternate Strategy: Connection to the SSF ASW lines, upstream of the SSF ASW control valves (Open Item 15) (Figure 4). | |||
Administrative controls ensure there is always enough water in CTP-1 to supply cooling for 24 hours (Reference 52 and 62). Phase 2 core cooling will be sustained beyond the initial capability of CTP-1, by using the water volume retained in the embedded CCW piping. Operator action to break siphon is required to maximize CCW water retention. These actions must be taken during the 2.86 hours prior to inundation (Reference 25). Modifications are required to enable the siphon break actions. Access to the CCW inventory is achieved by opening CCW manway 1A4 or 1B4 inserting a diesel driven submersible pump, and discharging to CTP-1(Figure9). The CCW inventory coupled with the water in CTP-1 provides cooling for approximately 6.75 days (Open Item 16). | |||

Seismic: | |||
The SSF is designed to operate for 72 hours per UFSAR 9.6.3.2 RCS Makeup System. The Phase 1 reliance on the SSF will only be as long as needed to deploy the Phase 2 FLEX equipment. The operator at the SSF will align Reactor Coolant Makeup (RCMU) to supply Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) seals within 20 minutes. This is a Time Critical Action that has been validated using licensed operators (Reference 65). Activation of the SSF within the required time maintains RCP seal function. The SSF RCMUP will take suction from the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) and discharge to the RCP seal injection lines, to provide both boration of the RCS along with RCS make up and RCP seal cooling (Reference 41 ). | |||
A minimum RCP Seal leakage of 8 gpm per unit will be included in the cool down analysis; which is consistent with WCAP Section 4.4.3 (Reference 5) for seals that do not experience overheating (Open Item I 0). | |||
Flood: | |||
Because of the advanced warning and conservative time assumed before the loss of plant components (3 hours), the RCS will be fully borated using existing plant equipment before normal equipment is lost (Reference 64 ). Pressurizer level will be increased to accommodate normal RCS leakage (Reference 25). | |||
Similarly, a minimum RCP Seal leakage of 8 gpm per unit will be included in the cool down analysis for a Flood Event; which is consistent with WCAP Section 4.4.3 (Reference 5) for seals that do not experience overheating (Open Item 10). | |||

RCS boration and makeup will be accomplished using one of two makeup strategies: | |||
With no power to the CF Tank isolation valves, CFT contents include pressurized nitrogen gas that could expand into the RCS; which could potentially block natural circulation flow. Strategies are to prevent CF gas injection as follows: | |||
* Isolation/venting of CF Tank to prevent nitrogen injection, after FLEX makeup strategy established. | |||
Primary Strategy: | |||
* Repowering SSF RCMUP. Suction will be from the SFP to the RCP seal injection lines (Open Item 22). | |||
* Repower CFT vent valves (CF-4 & CF-5) using portable equipment to allow venting nitrogen pressure off the tanks therefore preventing nitrogen injection into the RCS. (Open Item 22) | |||
Alternate Strategy: | |||
* Portable or prestaged high pressure low flow (40 gpm) injection pump taking a suction from the missile protected portion of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) and discharging into existing vent lines on the High Pressure Injection (HPI) injection header (Open Item 25). | |||

Provide a general description of the coping strategies using installed equipment including station modifications that are proposed to maintain and/or support safety functions. Identify methods and strategies utilized to achieve coping times. | |||
For the bounding T=O event (Seismic), Phase 1 coping will initially rely on the SSF and the associated SSF control room instrumentation. | |||
SSF Instrumentation | |||
: 1. RCS Pressure I 3. Pressurizer Level I 5. ASWFlow I | |||
: 2. RCS Thot & RCS Tcold I 4. Steam Generator Level I 6. Five (5) Core Exit T/Cs I (Reference 41, 42, 55, and UFSAR Section 7.5.2.2.1 and Table 9-16) | |||
Note that Reactor coolant system heat removal can be directly monitored by RCS parameters and controlled by SG level without SG pressure indication (Reference 42 and UFSAR Section 9.6.4.6.2). | |||
Main control instrumentation fed from the vital l&C buses will remain available as described below. | |||
Essential Instrumentation and Vital I&C A vital battery load reduction analysis will be completed to determine expected battery life with manual stripping of all loads except those components and instrumentation that are essential to supporting the FLEX strategy (Open Item 12). Extension of battery life is to provide margin for deployment of FLEX equipment for Phase 2. This instrumentation is consistent with the instrumentation outlined in PWROG generic FLEX Support Guidelines and Interfaces and NEI 12-06. | |||
The load reduction scheme will require removal of non-essential loads beginning at T+2hrs, the estimated time to identify an event as an ELAP condition, with completion of load shedding within 3 hours. | |||
The instrumentation and components that are powered from the vital buses and are required to support the strategy are as follows: | |||
: 1. RCS Wide Range Pressure 4. Steam Generator Level 7.RVLIS | |||
: 2. RCS Thot 5. Steam Generator Pressure 8. Excore Nl-1,2 | |||
: 3. Pressurizer Level 6. Core Exit T/Cs 9. RB Nonna) and Emergency Sump Level (Reference 7, 43, and 56) | |||
For the bounding event with advanced warning (Flood), normal plant equipment and instrumentation will be available to support Phase 1 coping. | |||
HVAC Upon loss of AC power, all Auxiliary Building power is lost, and thus no HV AC systems are available. | |||
Abnormal procedures for degraded control room area cooling include steps to open electrical cabinet doors and control room doors (Reference 66 and 67). Based on a preliminary review of existing analyses (Reference 53), no additional actions are expected to be required during Phase 1. Additional analysis will be required (Open Item 32). | |||

ONS Mitigating Strategies (FLEX) Integrated Plan Safety Functions Support PWR Portable Equipment Phase 2 Provide a general description of the coping strategies using on-site portable equipment including station modifications that are proposed to maintain and/or support safety functions. Identify methods and strategies utilized to achieve coping times. | |||
Essential Instrumentation and Vital l&C The key reactor parameters that must be monitored in Phase 2 are the same that must be monitored in Phase I with the addition of the following (these parameters are not fed from the vital buses): | |||
I I. RCS Tcold I 3. RB Wide Range Pressure I | |||
: 12. RCS High Point Vent Valve position indication I 4. RCS Head Vent Valve position indication I (Reference 58 and 59). | |||
Power will be maintained to those parameters that are fed from the vital I&C panelboards by repowering the vital battery chargers with portable power distribution equipment which will recharge the vital batteries and ultimately repower the vital 120 VAC panelboards via the vital inverters. The above identified parameters that are not fed from the vital panelboards will be repowered directly from the portable power distribution system. This will be the primary repower strategy (Open Item 22). | |||
The alternate repower strategy will use portable instrumentation installed in the Electrical Penetration Rooms to repower the key instrumentation parameters. Instrumentation parameters will be repowered on a priority bases starting with those variables currently required by References 18 and 25. The alternate repower strategy supports Phase 2 coping for the maximum flood event and minimizes reliance on installed infrastructure with respect to all other BDBEEs (Open Item 20). | |||
HVAC Further analysis will be performed (Open Item 32). | |||
Potential mitigating strategies may include: | |||
* Opening electrical cabinet doors | |||
* Opening control room doors | |||
* Opening battery room doors | |||
* Opening penetration room doors | |||
* Opening electrical equipment room doors | |||
* Installing fans | |||
* Installing spot coolers Once the vital battery chargers are repowered by the portable power distribution equipment, hydrogen buildup within the battery rooms will begin to occur due to a lack of ventilation. Based on a preliminary review of existing analysis (Reference 22), there will be adequate time to implement Phase 2 portable ventilation strategies prior to hydrogen concentrations becoming a concern. Additional analysis will be required (Open Item 24). | |||
Lighting Hard hat LED lights will be procured to ensure operators can safely move through the plant during an ELAP. | |||
Additional portable lighting will be procured to provide lighting in the yard, to replace some of the emergency lighting once it is depleted and to enhance lighting in other areas of the plant as deemed necessary (Open Item 29). | |||
Communication Strategies to mitigate loss of communication systems will be developed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(f), Recommendation 9.3 and NEI 12-01. (Open Item 30). | |||

Determine Applicable Seismic Hazard Assessment:
Extreme External Hazard The seismic criteria for Oconee Nuclear Station (ONS) include two design response spectra: Maximum Hypothetical Earthquake (MHE) and Input the hazards applicable Design Basis Earthquake (DBE), also referred to as Safe Shutdown to the site; seismic, external Earthquake (SSE) and Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) respectively.
flood. high winds. snow. ice. The Peak Ground Acceleration for the MHE and the DBE are 0.1 Og and cold, high temps. Describe 0.05g, respectively for structures founded on rock. For structures how NE/ 12-06 Sections 5 - 9 founded on overburden, the Peak Ground Acceleration for the MHE for were applied and the basis for Class 1 Structures is 0.15g (Reference 61 ). These values constitute the why the plant screened out for design basis of ONS. Per NEI 12-06, Section 5.2, all sites will consider certain hazards seismic hazard in their FLEX strategies.
Ref: NEI 12-06, S.ection 4.0 -9.0 External Flood Assessment:
JLD-ISG-2012-01, Section 1.0 ONS has extensive licensing consideration, analysis, correspondence and pending actions with respect to flooding. There are two separate external flooding events that potentially put water in the ONS yard. One of the current licensing basis external floods is a local intense precipitation event defined by the UFSAR Section 2.4.2.2. The other flooding event is defined in the June 22, 2010 Confirmatory Action Letter (CAL) as a postulated upstream dam failure (Reference 14). Both of these modeled scenarios produce flooding in the ONS yard.
Maximum external flood levels in the yard are bounded by a postulated upstream dam failure. Since the CAL was submitted, ONS has taken defense in depth steps by constructing two flood protection features.
These two features keep portions of the site dry and limit water heights in the yard. These features are not credited in ONS current licensing basi~. However, additional analysis has been performed to prove these added features lower the modeled w~ter heights (Reference 48).
Separate an.alysis is currently underway to define new flooding hazards for both the local intense precipitation event (Open Item I) and the sunny day upstream dam failure event (Open Item 2). These analyses are driven by the NRC 10 CFR 50.54(f) Recommendation 2.1, Flood Hazard Reevaluation. Therefore, ONS will consider a flood event in its FLEX strategies.
High Wind Hazard Assessment:
Using Figures 7-1 and 7-2 from NEI 12-06, it was determined the ONS site is in Region 3 which indicates tornado winds should not exceed 179 mph. However, hurricane winds could produce 140 mph peak gusts.
Therefore, ONS will consider a high wind hazard.
Extreme Cold Assessment:
Per NEI 12-06 Section 8, ONS will consider between 8 and 10 inches of snow and is considered a Level 5 (most severe) in ice storm severity:
meaning there is potential for catastrophic destruction to power lines and/or existence of extreme amounts of ice.
Extreme High Temperature Assessment:
Per NEI 12-06 Section 9, all sites will consider temperatures in excess of 110 °f.
The applicable extreme external hazards at ONS are Seismic, Flood, High Wind, Extreme Cold, and Extreme High Temperatures.

In other words, it is assumed that the seismic re-evaluation does not Ref: NEI 12-06, Section 3.2.l adversely impact the equipment that forms a part of the ONS FLEX strategy. Any changes to the seismic design basis may require a change to the plans in the ONS response to Order EA-12-049.
- 3. Systems, structures, and components (SSC) will be considered seismically robust if they:
- Are constructed to ONS QA- I or Category I criteria,
- Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using Seismic Qualification Utility Group (SQUG) procedures,
- Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using EPRI 1012023, Experience Based Seismic Verification Guidelines for Piping Systems,
- Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using EPRI I 019199, Experience Based Seismic Verification Guidelines for Piping and Tubing Systems,
- Meet the requirements to be robust relative to the SSE using other industry recognized codes like A WW A D 100, or
- Are demonstrated via a shake table.
- 4. Personnel access to and qualification of equipment that forms a part of the FLEX strategy assumes no core damage.
- 5. For events with no advance warning, per NEI 12-06 Section 12 .1, on-site resources will be used to cope with the first two phases of the event and for a minimum of the first 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of the event.

- 7. This plan defines strategies capable of mitigating a simultaneous loss of all alternating current (AC) power and loss of normal access to the ultimate heat sink resulting from a beyond-design-basis external event (BDBEE) by providing adequate capability to maintain or restore core cooling, containment, and Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) cooling capabilities at all units on a site. Though specific strategies are being developed, due to the inability to anticipate all possible scenarios, the strategies are also diverse and flexible to encompass a wide range of possible conditions.

The plant Technical Specifications contain the limiting conditions for normal unit operations to ensure that design safety features are available to respond to a design basis accident and direct the required actions to be taken when the limiting conditions are not met. The result of the beyond-design-basis event may place the plant in a condition where it cannot comply with certain Technical Specifications and/or with its Security Plan, and, as such, may warrant invocation of 10 CFR 50.54(x) and/or 10 CFR 73.55(p).
- 8. The flood re-evaluation pursuant to the 10 CFR 50.54(t) letter of March 12, 2012 is not completed, and therefore not assumed in this submittal. Defense in depth measures have been put in place to minimize flood levels onsite in response to the CAL for upstream dam failure. Based on analysis of the effects of the defense in depth measures, flood levels onsite are estimated to peak at 4.9 feet (Reference 48). For conservatism, a maximum flood level of 10 feet (Elevation 806') will be utilized in the development of mitigating strategies (Open Item 2).

The SSF system:
- Normally aligned to 4160V switchgear for house loads from the unit 2 main feeder bus.
- During emergency operation the SSF electrical equipment is independent of plant electrical equipment.
- SSF pumps are independent of plant equipment.
- Oconee's Phase I Coping Strategy assumes, during a complete loss of AC power event, that all three Units' Turbine Driven Emergency Feedwater (TDEFW) Pumps are also instantly unavailable at T=O. (Any one TDEFW Pump can be aligned to any or all three Units).
In an SSF mitigated event, the SSF is not connected to the offsite or onsite emergency AC power systems. Procedures, protective relaying, and interlocks ensure SSF systems are only supplied from the SSF (Reference 30, 11_, and 42).

Identify methods (AFWIEFW) and strategies utilized to achieve this coping time.
Seismic:
At the initiation of the event, operators will enter the Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP)
(Reference 51 ). During the performance of immediate manual actions, an operator on each affected unit will be dispatched to the SSF. The control room supervisor (CRS) will transfer to the station blackout tab of the EOP and attempt to regain power by running the restoration of power enclosure. The FLEX support guidelines (FSGs) will be implemented (Open Item 4) when the enclosure actions fail to restore power and it becomes apparent that power restoration is not achievable in the near term.
The SSF is designed to operate for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> (UFSAR 9.6.3.2 RCS Makeup System). The Phase 1 reliance on the SSF will only be as long as needed to deploy the Phase 2 FLEX equipment. However, while Phase 1 coping capabilities remain viable; they will continue to be utilized. The operator at.the SSF will align SSF ASW within 14 minutes. This is a Time Critical Action (TCA) that has been validated using licensed operators (Reference 65). The SSF ASW pump will take suction from the CCW intake crossover line and discharge to both steam generators on each unit. RCS pressure will be maintained between 1950 and 2250 psig with an RCS temperature of 550 to 555°F (Reference 30). When the determination is made to enter FSGs due to an ELAP, the SSF operator will isolate letdown and begin an RCS cool down using SSF ASW and plant ADV s (Open Item 10). The atmospheric dump. valves are manual valves located in the turbine building on the 5th floor. An assessment will be completed to verify the seismic robustness of the ADV s and adequate accessibility after an event (Open Item 11 ).
Pressurizer level will be maintained and cool down rate will be established, limited only by the ability to maintain pressurizer level on scale (Open Item 10).
Flood:
At the initiation of the event, operators will enter the approved abnormal procedure for flood mitigation.
All three units will begin shutdown. Operations will run three enclosures simultaneously. (Reference 25)
The CRS enclosure: trips unit, borates RCS to Cold Shutdown (CSD) conditions, closes Core Flood Tank (CFT) isolation valves, increases levels in Pzr and SGs, and begins plant cool down to 240 - 250°F.
The Operations Shift Manager (OSM) enclosure: activates operational support center/ technical support center (OSC/TSC), classifies event, conducts site assembly, requests increased staffing, and directs SFP monitoring.
The Work Control Center Senior Reactor Operator (WCC SRO) enclosure: dispatches operators and maintenance to align portable pump and notifies Security. A change will be made to the WCC SRO enclosure to notify Maintenance, Single Point of Contact (SPOC) to pre-stage the FLEX portable instrumentation in the Penetration Rooms (Open Item 4).

Provide a general description of the coping strategies using on-site portable equipment including station modifications that are proposed to maintain core cooling. ldentijj; methods and strategies utilized to achieve this coping time.
Seismic:
Phase 2 Core cooling will be achieved with a high capacity low head portable diesel driven pump. The pump suction will come from the plant intake canal at a location separate from the intake pump structure (Figure 1). The discharge will be into one of two SG feed options.
Primary Strategy: Station ASW feed lines through the existing tap upstream of the units manual throttle valves (Figure 3). This single tap feeds a header that supplies all three units (Open Item 13 ).
Note: When the new Protected Service Water (PSW) modification is completed the Station ASW line will be replaced with a PSW line that will perform the same function (Open Item 17).
Alternate Strategy: Three individual unit connections to the SSF ASW, upstream of the SSF ASW control valves (Open Item 13) (Figure 4).
Flood:
Phase 2 Core cooling will be achieved with a high capacity low head portable diesel driven pump. The pump suction will come from Chemical Treatment Pond 1 (CTP-1 ). The discharge will be into one of two SG feed options (Figure 2).
Primary Strategy: Station ASW feed lines through the existing tap upstream of the units manual throttle valves (Figure 3). When the new Protected Service Water (PSW) modification is completed, the Station ASW line will be replaced with a PSW line that will perform the same function (Open Item 15).
Alternate Strategy: Connection to the SSF ASW lines, upstream of the SSF ASW control valves (Open Item 15) (Figure 4).
Administrative controls ensure there is always enough water in CTP-1 to supply cooling for 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> (Reference 52 and 62). Phase 2 core cooling will be sustained beyond the initial capability of CTP-1, by using the water volume retained in the embedded CCW piping. Operator action to break siphon is required to maximize CCW water retention. These actions must be taken during the 2.86 hours9.953704e-4 days <br />0.0239 hours <br />1.421958e-4 weeks <br />3.2723e-5 months <br /> prior to inundation (Reference 25).

The operator at the SSF will align Reactor Coolant Makeup (RCMU) to supply Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) seals within 20 minutes. This is a Time Critical Action that has been validated using licensed operators (Reference 65). Activation of the SSF within the required time maintains RCP seal function. The SSF RCMUP will take suction from the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) and discharge to the RCP seal injection lines, to provide both boration of the RCS along with RCS make up and RCP seal cooling (Reference 41 ).
A minimum RCP Seal leakage of 8 gpm per unit will be included in the cool down analysis; which is consistent with WCAP Section 4.4.3 (Reference 5) for seals that do not experience overheating (Open Item I 0).

Seismic:
RCS boration and makeup will be accomplished using one of two makeup strategies:
With no power to the CF Tank isolation valves, CFT contents include pressurized nitrogen gas that could expand into the RCS; which could potentially block natural circulation flow. Strategies are to prevent CF gas injection as follows:
Primary Strategy:
- Repower CFT vent valves (CF-4 & CF-5) using portable equipment to allow venting nitrogen pressure off the tanks therefore preventing nitrogen injection into the RCS. (Open Item 22)
Alternate Strategy:
- Portable or prestaged high pressure low flow (40 gpm) injection pump taking a suction from the missile protected portion of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) and discharging into existing vent lines on the High Pressure Injection (HPI) injection header (Open Item 25).
- Repower CFT isolation valves (CF-1 and CF-2) using portable equipment to allow isolation of the Core Flood Tanks (CFTs) to prevent nitrogen injection into the RCS (Open Item 22).

Provide a general description of the coping strategies using installed equipment including station modifications that are proposed to maintain and/or support safety functions. Identify methods and strategies utilized to achieve coping times.
For the bounding T=O event (Seismic), Phase 1 coping will initially rely on the SSF and the associated SSF control room instrumentation.
SSF Instrumentation
- 1. RCS Pressure I 3. Pressurizer Level I 5. ASWFlow I
- 2. RCS Thot & RCS Tcold I 4. Steam Generator Level I 6. Five (5) Core Exit T/Cs I (Reference 41, 42, 55, and UFSAR Section 7.5.2.2.1 and Table 9-16)
Note that Reactor coolant system heat removal can be directly monitored by RCS parameters and controlled by SG level without SG pressure indication (Reference 42 and UFSAR Section 9.6.4.6.2).
Main control instrumentation fed from the vital l&C buses will remain available as described below.
Essential Instrumentation and Vital I&C A vital battery load reduction analysis will be completed to determine expected battery life with manual stripping of all loads except those components and instrumentation that are essential to supporting the FLEX strategy (Open Item 12). Extension of battery life is to provide margin for deployment of FLEX equipment for Phase 2. This instrumentation is consistent with the instrumentation outlined in PWROG generic FLEX Support Guidelines and Interfaces and NEI 12-06.
The load reduction scheme will require removal of non-essential loads beginning at T+2hrs, the estimated time to identify an event as an ELAP condition, with completion of load shedding within 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br />.
The instrumentation and components that are powered from the vital buses and are required to support the strategy are as follows:
- 1. RCS Wide Range Pressure 4. Steam Generator Level 7.RVLIS
- 2. RCS Thot 5. Steam Generator Pressure 8. Excore Nl-1,2
- 3. Pressurizer Level 6. Core Exit T/Cs 9. RB Nonna) and Emergency Sump Level (Reference 7, 43, and 56)
For the bounding event with advanced warning (Flood), normal plant equipment and instrumentation will be available to support Phase 1 coping.
HVAC Upon loss of AC power, all Auxiliary Building power is lost, and thus no HV AC systems are available.
Abnormal procedures for degraded control room area cooling include steps to open electrical cabinet doors and control room doors (Reference 66 and 67). Based on a preliminary review of existing analyses (Reference 53), no additional actions are expected to be required during Phase 1. Additional analysis will be required (Open Item 32).

ONS Mitigating Strategies (FLEX) Integrated Plan Safety Functions Support PWR Portable Equipment Phase 2 Provide a general description of the coping strategies using on-site portable equipment including station modifications that are proposed to maintain and/or support safety functions. Identify methods and strategies utilized to achieve coping times.
Essential Instrumentation and Vital l&C The key reactor parameters that must be monitored in Phase 2 are the same that must be monitored in Phase I with the addition of the following (these parameters are not fed from the vital buses):
I I. RCS Tcold I 3. RB Wide Range Pressure I
- 12. RCS High Point Vent Valve position indication I 4. RCS Head Vent Valve position indication I (Reference 58 and 59).
Power will be maintained to those parameters that are fed from the vital I&C panelboards by repowering the vital battery chargers with portable power distribution equipment which will recharge the vital batteries and ultimately repower the vital 120 VAC panelboards via the vital inverters. The above identified parameters that are not fed from the vital panelboards will be repowered directly from the portable power distribution system. This will be the primary repower strategy (Open Item 22).
The alternate repower strategy will use portable instrumentation installed in the Electrical Penetration Rooms to repower the key instrumentation parameters. Instrumentation parameters will be repowered on a priority bases starting with those variables currently required by References 18 and 25. The alternate repower strategy supports Phase 2 coping for the maximum flood event and minimizes reliance on installed infrastructure with respect to all other BDBEEs (Open Item 20).
HVAC Further analysis will be performed (Open Item 32).
Potential mitigating strategies may include:
- Opening electrical cabinet doors
- Opening control room doors
- Opening battery room doors
- Opening penetration room doors
- Opening electrical equipment room doors
- Installing fans
- Installing spot coolers Once the vital battery chargers are repowered by the portable power distribution equipment, hydrogen buildup within the battery rooms will begin to occur due to a lack of ventilation. Based on a preliminary review of existing analysis (Reference 22), there will be adequate time to implement Phase 2 portable ventilation strategies prior to hydrogen concentrations becoming a concern. Additional analysis will be required (Open Item 24).
Lighting Hard hat LED lights will be procured to ensure operators can safely move through the plant during an ELAP.
Additional portable lighting will be procured to provide lighting in the yard, to replace some of the emergency lighting once it is depleted and to enhance lighting in other areas of the plant as deemed necessary (Open Item 29).
