1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated July 26, 2007 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML072150248), PSEG Nuclear LLC (the licensee) requested changes to the Hope Creek Generating Station (HCGS) Technical Specification (TSs). The proposed
amendment would remove values for turbine first stage pressure associated with Pbypass from the TSs. Pbypass is the reactor power level below which the turbine stop valve (TSV) closure and the turbine control valve (TCV) fast closure reactor protection system (RPS) trip functions and the
end-of-cycle recirculation pump trip (EOC-RPT) are bypassed automatically.
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission
=s (NRC=s or the Commission
=s) regulatory requirements related to the content of the TSs are set forth in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 50.36, A Technical specifications.
@ This regulation requires that the TSs include items in five specific categories. These categories include (1) safety limits, limiting
safety system settings and limiting control setti ngs, (2) limiting conditions for operation (LCOs), (3) surveillance requirements (SRs), (4) design features, and (5) administrative controls.
However, the regulation does not specify the particular TSs to be included in a plant
=s TSs. Additionally, 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) sets forth four criteria to be used in determining whether an
LCO is required to be included in TSs. These criteria are:
Criterion 1: Installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
Criterion 2: A process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a design-basis accident or transient analysis that either assumes the
failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
Criterion 3: A structure, system or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a design-basis accident or transient that
either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission
product barrier.
Criterion 4: A structure, system or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
Existing LCOs and related SRs included as TS requirements which satisfy any of the criteria stated above must be retained in the TSs. Those TS requirements which do not satisfy these
criteria may be relocated to other licensee-controlled documents.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
The RPS is designed to cause rapid insertion of control rods (i.e., scram) to shutdown the
reactor when specific parameters exceed predet ermined limits. For HCGS, the parameters providing input to the RPS scram logic are shown in TS Table 3.3.1-1, A Reactor Protection System Instrumentation.
@ Two of the monitored parameters include TSV closure and TCV fast closure.
The TSV closure RPS trip function is discussed in Section 7.2.1.1.4 of the HCGS Updated Final
Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). A turbine trip initiates closure of the TSVs, which can result in
a significant addition of positive reactivity to the core as the reactor pressure rise causes steam
voids to collapse. The TSV closure RPS trip initiates a reactor scram earlier than either the neutron monitoring system trip or reactor vessel high pressure trip to provide the required safety
margin below core thermal-hydraulic limits for this abnormal operational transient.
The TCV fast closure RPS trip function is discussed in Section 7.2.1.1.5 of the HCGS UFSAR.
A generator load rejection, with reactor power above 30% of RTP, or a turbine trip automatically
initiates a fast closure of the TCVs. Fast closure of the TCVs results in a situation similar to
closure of the TSVs and, as such, the TCV fast closure RPS trip is provided for the same
reasons as those discussed above for the TSV closure RPS trip.
The instrumentation associated with the EOC-RPT is discussed in Section 7.6.1.5 of the HCGS
UFSAR. The EOC-RPT instrumentation initiates tripping of both recirculation pumps based on
inputs from the RPS logic associated with closure of the TSVs or fast closure of the TSVs. The
reason for tripping the recirculation pumps is to reduce the impact on the fuel of thermal
transients caused by a turbine trip, generator trip, or load rejection. The rapid core flow
reduction increases void content and thereby introduces negative reactivity in conjunction with
control rod insertion.
The TSV closure and TCV fast closure RPS trip functions and the EOC-RPT function are
bypassed automatically if turbine first stage pressure is less than a pressure corresponding to
30% of rated thermal power (RTP). The intent of this automatic bypass (which is designated as
Pbypass) is to reduce scrams and recirculation pump trips at low power levels where the turbine steam bypass system is effective for turb ine trips and generator load rejections.
TS LCO 3.3.1 requires the RPS instrumentation channels to be operable as specified by TS
Table 3.3.1-1. TS Table 3.3.1-1 requires that the TSV closure and TCV fast closure RPS trip
functions be operable in operational condition 1 (i.e., power operation). The applicable
operational condition for these functions is modified by note A j@ which currently reads as follows:
This function shall be automatically bypassed when turbine first stage pressure is 159.7 psig [pounds per square inch gauge] equivalent to THERMAL POWER less than 30% of RATED THERMAL POWER. To allow for instrument accuracy, calibration, and
drift, a setpoint of 135.7 psig is used.
TS LCO 3.3.4.2 requires the EOC-RPT syst em instrumentation channels shown in TS Table 3.3.4.2-1 to be operable in operational condition 1 when thermal power is greater than or
equal to 30% of RTP. TS Table 3.3.4.2-1, note A b@ currently states that:
This function shall be automatically bypassed when turbine first stage pressure is 159.7 psig equivalent to THERMAL POWER less than 30% of RATED THERMAL POWER. To allow for instrument accuracy, calibration and drift, a setpoint of 135.7 psig is used.
The licensee's application dated July 26, 2007, states that modifications to the high-pressure
turbine, planned to be performed during the fall 2007 refueling outage, will change the
relationship between turbine first stage pressure and RTP. To support this planned
modification, the proposed amendment would revise note A j@ in TS Table 3.3.1-1 and note A b@ in TS Table 3.3.4.2-1 to remove the values for turbine first stage pressure. Specifically, the notes
would read as follows:
This function shall be automatically bypassed when turbine first stage pressure is
equivalent to THERMAL POWER less than 30% of RATED THERMAL POWER.
The licensee
=s application dated July 26, 2007, states that the turbine first stage pressure values in TS Tables 3.3.1-1 and 3.3.4.2-1 are details of system design that are not required by
10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) to be included in the TSs because:
- 1. Turbine first stage pressure instrumentation is not used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant
pressure boundary.
- 2. Turbine first stage pressure is not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a design basis accident or
transient analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the
integrity of a fission product barrier. Pbypass is an initial condition for some transient analyses and is retained in TS Tables 3.3.1-1 and 3.3.4.2-1.
- 3. Turbine first stage pressure instrumentation is not a structure, system, or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or
actuates to mitigate a design basis accident or transient that either assumes the
failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. Turbine first stage pressure instrumentation is not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has
shown to be significant to public health and safety.
The application dated July 26, 2007, also states that a turbine first stage pressure setpoint will be established in accordance with plant procedures before plant startup to ensure compliance
with the TS requirements. Testing will be performed to confirm the turbine first stage pressure
at Pbypass during the plant startup after the fall 2007 outage.
In addition to the sections in Chapter 7 of the HCGS UFSAR referenced above, the NRC staff
reviewed the following portions of Chapter 15 of the HCGS UFSAR which describe the
applicable transient analyses:
- 1) Section 15.2.2, A Generator Load Rejection
@ 2) Section 15.2.3, A Turbine Trip
@ 3) Section 15.9.6.3, A Anticipated Operational Transients
@ 4) Section 15.9.6.4, A Abnormal Operational Transients
@ 5) Figure 15.9-32, A Protection Sequences for Main Turbine Trip with Bypass
@ 6) Figure 15.9-34, A Protection Sequences for Main Generator Trip with Bypass System Operation@ 7) Figure 15.9-36, A Protection Sequences for Main Generator Trip with Bypass System Failure
@ 8) Figure 15.9-37, A Protection Sequences for Main Turbine Trip with Bypass System Failure
@ The UFSAR transient analyses noted above are based, in part, on the assumption that the TSV
closure and TCV fast closure RPS trip functions and the EOC-RPT function are operable at or
above 30% of RTP. The transient analyses do not discuss the turbine first stage pressure
values in terms of psig.
Based on review of the HCGS UFSAR, the NRC staff agrees with the licensee
=s determination that the turbine first stage pressure values in TS Tables 3.3.1-1 and 3.3.4.2-1 are details of
system design that are not required by 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii) to be included in the TSs. The
NRC staff also finds that the provisions of 10 CFR 50.59 provide adequate control to establish
the turbine first stage pressure setpoint in the associated plant procedures. Based on these
considerations, the NRC staff concludes that the proposed amendment is acceptable.
The NRC staff notes that removal of the turbine first stage pressure values from the TSs is
consistent with NUREG-1433, Revision 3, A Standard Technical Specifications, General Electric Plants BWR/4.
@
4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, the New Jersey State Official was notified of the proposed issuance of the amendment. The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The amendment changes a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area as defined in 10 CFR Part 20. The NRC staff has
determined that the amendment involves no significant increase in the amounts, and no
significant change in the types, of any effluents that may be released offsite, and that there is no
significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. The
Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the amendment involves no
significant hazards consideration, and there has been no public comment on such finding (72 FR 45460). Accordingly, the amendment meets the eligibility criteria for categorical
exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b) no environmental
impact statement or environmental assessm ent need be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendment.
6.0 CONCLUSION
The Commission has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that: (1) there
