~ CORE DAMAGE ESTIMATION PROCEDURE

[1.'Oll PURPOSE-This procedure.wil'1 be used to implement the Westinghouse owner's. Group U Core Damage' Assessment Methodology. This. methodology provides the primary means of estimating core iamage through the measurement of fission product-concentrations in the reactor coolant system and containment. Also used-

. to . verify the extent 'of core damage are the auxiliary indicators of core exit thermocouple temperatures, reactor. vessel water level, containment-J radiation monitors, and containment hydrogen concentrations. .

Because of overlapping values of release and potential simultaneous conditions of core damage, overtemperature, and/or core melt, considerable judgement needs to be applied.

5.0 INITIAL CONDITIONS 5.1 Applicable portions of EPIP 1.2, " Plant Status," are completed.

5.2 A reactor coolant sample has been.taken and analyzed by implementing EPIP 7.3.2, " Post-Accident Sampling & Aralysis of Potentially High Level Reactor Coolant."

5.3 A containment atmosphere sample has been taken and analyzed by implementing EPIP 7.3.3, " Post-Accident Sampling of Containment Atmosphere."

5.4 The Westinghouse Owner's Group (WOG) Post-Accident Core Damage Assessment Methodology is available for use. Copies of the WOG methodology are located in Nuclear Engineering office, Room 381, Public Service Building in Milwaukee and in the technical support center.

6.0 PLANT-SPECIFIC DIFFERENCES FROM THE WOG METHODOLOGY 6.1 Pressure & Temperature Adjustments The specific activities of the containment air sample recorded on EPIP-31 are referenced to actual containment pressure and temperature conditions. Therefore, the optional adjustment in the WOG methodology is not required for the PENP containment sample.

The reactor coolant system activities recorded on EPIP-30 are in units of pCi/cc. Therefore, a temperature adjustment is required for the reactor coolant system volume and estimated safety injection volume only if the reactor coolant system temperature or containment sump temperature, respectively, are greater than 200*F. Use Steps 6.1.1 through 6.1.5 on Pages 30 and 31 from the WOG methodology to calculate the total liquid volume.
