Containment entry may be required to perform Technical Specification surveillances and actions, as well as other activities on equipment inside containment that are required by Technical Specifications (TS)or other activities that support TS required equipment.
In addition, containment entry may be required to perform repairs on vital plant equipment, which if not repaired, could lead to a plant transient or a reactor trip.This note is not intended to preclude performing other activities (i.e., non-TS required activities or repairs on non-vital plant equipment) if the containment is entered, using the inoperable air lock, to perform an allowed activity listed above.This allowance is acceptable due to the low probability of an event that could pressurize containment during the short time that an OPERABLE door is expected to be open.Maintaining containment air locks OPERABLE requires compliance with the leakage rate test requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J, as modified by approved exemptions.
HNP has an approved exemption to Appendix J Option A, paragragh III.D.2 of 10 CFR 50 in that the Overall air lock leakage test is required to be performed if maintenance has been performed that could affect the air lock sealing capability prior to establishing CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY.
This is in contrast to the Appendix J requirement if air locks are opened during periods when containment integrity is not required by the plant's Technical Specifications shall be tested at the end of such periods.
