Insert 22 An alternate to the drywell floor drain sump flow monitoring system for quantifying UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE is the drywell equipment drain sump monitoring system, if the drywell floor drain sump is overflowing to the drywell equipment drain sump. In this configuration, the drywell equipment drain sump collects all leakage into the drywell equipment drain sump and the overflow from the drywell floor drain sump. Therefore, if the drywell floor drain sump is overflowing to the drywell equipment drain sump, the drywell equipment drain sump monitoring system can be used to quantify UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE. In this condition, all leakage measured by the drywell equipment drain sump monitoring system is assumed to be UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE. The leakage determination process, including the transition to and use of the alternate method is described in station procedures. The alternate method would only be used when the drywell floor drain sump flow monitoring system is unavailable.

BACKGROUND (Continued)
(Continuedi The primary containment atmospheric gaseous radioactivity monitoring system continuously monitors the primary containment atmosphere for gaseous radioactivity levels. A      A sudden increase of radioactivity, which may be attributed to RCPB steam or reactor water leakage, is annunciated in the main control room. The primary containment atmospheric gaseous radioactivity monitoring system is not capable of quantifying leakage rates, but is sensitive enough to detect increased leakage rates of 11 gpm within 11 hour. Larger changes in leakage rates are detected in proportionally shorter times (Ref. 4).

Larger changes in leakage rates are detected in proportionally shorter times (Ref. 4).
Condensate from the eight drywell air coolers is routed to the drywell floor drain sump and is monitored by aa series of flow transmitters that provide indication and alarms in the main control room. The outputs from the flow transmitters are added together by summing units to provide aa total continuous condensate drain flow rate. The high flow alarm setpoint is based on condensate drain flow rate in excess of 11 gpm over the currently identified preset leak rate. The drywell air cooler condensate flow rate monitoring system serves as an added indicator, but not quantifier, of RCS UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE (Ref. 5).

Background

On August 16, 2008, at approximately 2000 hours, operations personnel at DNPS attempted to pump the DNPS Unit 3 DWFDS utilizing Dresden Operating Procedure (DOP) 2000-24, "Drywell Drywell Operation. Successful completion of DOP 2000-24 is used, in part, to satisfy DNPS Sump Operation. II 3.4.4.1 "Verify Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.4.4.1, , Verify RCS unidentified and total LEAKAGE and unidentified LEAKAGE increase are within limits."limits. The pumps started as expected; however, the integrator indicated no flow. During a second attempt to operate the pumps, DNPS operations personnel observed the position indicators for the two containment isolation valves, which indicated that the valves were in their proper position. DNPS maintenance personnel also inspected the pump breakers and measured pump motor current, with no abnormalities identified. The drywell floor drain sump pumps had been successfully pumped previously at 1 600 hours, and every four hours prior. 1600 DNPS conducted troubleshooting actions to identify possible malfunctions. These troubleshooting actions indicated that the containment isolation valve (Le., (i.e., one of two drywell floor drain sump pump discharge valves) may have failed closed. Since the drywell floor drain sump could not be pumped, DNPS was not able to satisfy the acceptance criteria of SR 3.4.4.1 for DNPS Unit 3. Therefore, TS LCO 3.4.4 for unidentified leakage could not be verified to be within limits. The applicable TS action requires that thatthe the unit be placed in Mode 3 within 12 hours and Mode 4 within 36 hours. In that the containment isolation valve is part of primary containment, the valve could not be repaired during unit operation. As such, DNPS requested, and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) granted, a Notice of Enforcement Discretion (NOED) for TS 3.4.4, Condition C and TS 3.4.5, Condition C (Le.,(i.e., References 6.3 and 6.4, respectively). Specifically, the NOED provided a seven-day extension to the TS Completion Times to place the unit in Mode 3 within 12 hours and Mode 4 within 36 hours. The extension provided sufficient time to reconfigure the DWFDS monitoring system such that the DWEDS monitoring system could be physically utilized to quantify unidentified drywell leakage. In addition, the seven-day extension provided sufficient time for DNPS to request, and the USNRC to review and approve, an emergency license amendment to revise TS 3.4.5, on a temporary basis, to approve the use of the DWEDS monitoring system as an alternate method to quantify unidentified leakage (i.e., (Le., References 6.5 and 6.6, respectively). Subsequently, DNPS and Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station (QCNPS) submitted an additional license amendment request, Reference 6.1 6.1, requesting the emergency license amendment changes be made permanent for both stations. The USNRC requested additional information to support the license amendment request review in the Reference 6.7 letter. The DNPS and QCNPS responses were provided in the Reference 6.8 and 6.9 submittals. The license amendment request was approved by the USNRC in August 2010 (Reference 6.2). To prevent the need for a similar emergency license amendment, the changes proposed in this request seek to incorporate the alternate method of verifying drywell leakage into the LGS TS for Unit 11 and Unit 2.

Alarms are also generated in the main control room for high total average leak rate. The high total average leak rate alarm setpoints can be adjusted at the processing unit, which is located in the main control room, as the amount of acceptable identified leakage changes during operation. Indication of the leakage rates is provided in the main control room on panel-mounted indicators. Sump tank levels (in gallons) are provided on monitors from the Plant Monitoring System. Level switches, which are independent of the level transmitters, open the sump tank drain valves when the level increases to an upper setpoint value and keep them open until the level decreases to the lower setpoint value. The level switches then close the drain valves and reset the processing units to start a new measurement period. The measurement period must be long enough to ensure that the level transmitter loop can adequately detect the increase in level that would correspond to the 1 1 gpm and 2 gpm changes in leak rates described above, and yet short enough to ensure that such a leak rate will be detected within an hour. The measurement period will be less than 1 1 hour. The transmitters which are located in the reactor enclosure and the processing units which are located in the main control room are accessible during normal plant operation for calibration. The transmitters can be isolated from the sump tanks by existing bypass manifolds. Zero and span adjustments can be made using portable test equipment. The processing unit functions can be calibrated by applying known input levels at the unit and observing the response. The Drywell Sump Level Monitoring System (DSLMS) is comprised of the processing units, level transmitters, control room leakage flow indicators and interconnecting raceway and cables. The DSLMS has been demonstrated to remain operational after a Safe Shutdown Earthquake. The DSLMS is energized by Class 1E 1 E power. The Class 1E 1 E power to the panel is provided with a Class 1E1 E fuse and circuit breaker in series to meet separation requirements. The DSLMS is automatically shed from the Class 1E 1 E power in the event of a Loss of Coolant Accident (the load shedding relay, however, is not qualified for Class 1E 1 E service). additionto In addition, to the sump level monitoring system described above, the discharge from each sump is monitored by a flow element. The measured flow rate is integrated and recorded in the control room. A control room alarm is also provided to indicate excessive discharge rates. These indications and alarms are provided in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.45. 3.2 RCS Leakage Limits OPERATIONAL LEAKAGE," TS 3.4.3.2, "OPERATIONAL LEAKAGE, specifies the leakage limits for the RCS. The leakage LEAKAGE,II limits require, in part, unidentified leakage to be less than or equal to 5 gpm, total leakage averaged over the previous 24-hour period to be less than or equal to 25 gpm, and the increase in unidentified leakage within the previous 24-hour period to be less than 2 gpm. Section 5.2.5 of the LGS UFSAR describes the methods used for detection of leakage through the RCPS, RCPB, and specifies use of the drywell sumps (Le.,(i.e., DWFDS and DWEDS) as the primary methods that can be used. The leakage collected in the DWEDS is identified leakage, and the leakage collected in the DWFDS is unidentified leakage. TS 3.4.3.1 currently requires the DWFDS be operable as a RCS leakage detection system. The proposed change revises TS 3.4.3.1 to support the addition of an alternative method to use the

Alternate Method of Verifying Drywell Unidentified Leakage : 1 Evaluation of Proposed Changes Page 6 of 10 Therefore, depending upon the specific operational circumstances, filling of the DWFDS and ensuring flow from the DWFDS to the DWEDS would be established either manually with an external water source, or remotely, using the existing unidentified RCS leakage. In both circumstances the TS SR and TS Requirements in TS SR 3.4.3.2.1 and TS 3.4.3.2 will be met within the allotted completion times. 3.4 Summary By allowing the drywell floor drain sump to overflow into the drywell equipment drain sump, Operations personnel are not able to differentiate between the identified and unidentified leakage inputs. As such, all leakage in the drywell sumps will be conservatively treated as unidentified leakage in accordance with the TS 3.4.3.2 limits. Ensuring flow from the DWFDS to the DWEDS would be established either manually with an external water source, or remotely, using the existing unidentified RCS leakage. In both circumstances the TS SR and TS Requirements in TS SR 3.4.3.2.1 and TS 3.4.3.2 will be met within the allotted completion times. Therefore, the addition of an alternative method to quantify unidentified leakage in the drywell is conservative with respect to the current TS limits.

4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION

4.1 Arplicable Regulatory Requirements /I Criteria Applicable LGS Units 1 1 and 2 were originally designed and constructed following the issuance of the General Design Criteria (GDC). The GDC proposed criteria were adopted as regulatory requirements at both LGS Units. Details regarding the reactor coolant system leakage detection systems are provided in UFSAR System.1I One of the 5.2.5, Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Leak Detection System. Section 5.2.5,11 (i.e., DWFDS and DWEDS). The leakage detection systems discussed is the drywell sumps (Le., UFSAR states that various leak detection systems and capabilities collectively detect reactor coolant pressure boundary leakage, both identified and unidentified. These indications and alarms are provided in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.45. The proposed change does not involve physical changes to the RCS leakage detection systems. Rather, the proposed change allows use of the drywell equipment drain monitoring system to perform the function of the drywell floor drain monitoring system in quantifying unidentified leakage within the LGS Units 11 and 2 drywells. The design function of the RCS leakage detection systems is not affected by the proposed change. In addition, the alternative method conservatively assumes that all leakage in the drywell is unidentified leakage. EGGs ability to meet the applicable regulatory requirements Therefore, there is no impact to EGC's discussed above. 4.2 Precedent The proposed alternate method has been incorporated into the TSs for the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant (References 6.10 and 6.11), the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Unit 2 and Unit 3 (References 6.12 and 6.13).

Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. (3) Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety? Response: No. The current TS require a periodic measurement of RCS leakage. The proposed change maintains the existing level of safety by allowing use of the drywell equipment drain sump system to quantify unidentified leakage in the drywell. No changes are being made to any of the RCS leakage limits specified in the TS. The impact of the change is that measured unidentified and identified leakage within the drywell will be quantified as equivalent values since the drywell equipment drain sump monitoring system will also be used to measure leakage into the drywell floor drain sump. In addition, the alternative method conservatively assumes that all leakage in the drywell is unidentified leakage. Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. Based on the above, EGC concludes that the proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration under the standards set setforth forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and, accordingly, a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified. 4.4 Conclusions In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's Commissions regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or the health and safety of the public. 5.0 ENVI RONMENTAL CONSIDERATION ENVIRONMENTAL A review has determined that the proposed amendment would change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 Standards for Protection Against Radiation." 1 0 CFR 20, "Standards Radiation. However, the proposed amendment does not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluent that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact 51 .22(c)(9). Therefore, purs.uant forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). statement or environmental assessment needs to be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.

In this configuration, the drywell equipment drain sump collects all leakage into the drywell equipment drain sump and the overflow from the drywell floor drain sump. Therefore, if the drywell floor drain sump is overflowing to the drywell equipment drain sump, the drywell equipment drain sump monitoring system can be used to quantify UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE. In this condition, all leakage measured by the drywell equipment drain sump monitoring system is assumed to be UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE. The leakage determination process, including the transition to and use of the alternate method is described in station procedures. The alternate method would only be used when the drywell floor drain sump flow monitoring system is unavailable.

REACTOR fEACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM SYSFEM BACKGROUND (Continued) (Continuedi The primary containment atmospheric gaseous radioactivity monitoring system continuously monitors the primary containment atmosphere for gaseous radioactivity levels. A A sudden increase of radioactivity, which may be attributed to RCPB steam or reactor water leakage, is annunciated in the main control room. The primary containment atmospheric gaseous radioactivity monitoring system is not capable of quantifying leakage rates, but is sensitive enough to detect increased leakage rates of 11 gpm within 11 hour. Larger changes in leakage rates are detected in proportionally shorter times (Ref. 4). Condensate from the eight drywell air coolers is routed to the drywell floor drain sump and is monitored by aa series of flow transmitters that provide indication and alarms in the main control room. The outputs from the flow transmitters are added together by summing units to provide aa total continuous condensate drain flow rate. The high flow alarm setpoint is based on condensate drain flow rate in excess of 11 gpm over the currently identified preset leak rate. The drywell air cooler condensate flow rate monitoring system serves as an added indicator, but not quantifier, of RCS UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE (Ref. 5).

APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES A A threat of significant compromise to the RCPS RCPB exists if the barrier contains a a crack that is large enough to propagate rapidly. Leakage rate limits are set low enough to detect the leakage emitted from a a single crack in the RCPB (Refs. 7 7 and 8). Each of the leakage detection systems inside the drywell is designed with the capability of detecting leakage less than the established leakage rate limits and providing appropriate alarms of excess leakage in the control room. AA control room alarm allows the operators to evaluate the significance of the indicated leakage and, if necessary, shut down the reactor for further investigation and corrective action. The allowed leakage rates are well below the rates predicted for critical crack sizes (Ref. 8).
