Approved temporary procedures may be issued to direct operations during testing, refueling, maintenance and modificationk These are necessary to provide guidance in unusual situations not within the scope of the normal procedures and to ensure orderly'and uniform operations for short periods w5en the plant, a systes cria component of a system is performing in a manner not covered by existing det' ailed procedures or has been modified or extended in such a manner that portions of existing procedures do not apply. Temporary procedures shall include designation of the period of time during which they may be used and shall be subject to the appropriate review process. These TPs are reviewed and approved in the same manner as permanent PNPS procedures or as temporary changes to procedures.
9.0 _ Temporary Changes,to Procedures _ (SRO changes)
Temporary changes to procedures may be appropriate when immediate implewntation is necessary. These "SRO changes" are allowed pro-viding 1) the intent of the original procedure is not altered and
- 2) .the change is approved by two members of the plant management staff, one of whom holds a Senior Reactors Operator's (SRO) Itcense.
These "5RD changes" shall be administrative 1y controlled so as to allow for proper reviews, within a specific time frame, subsequent to implementation.
10.0 C,ontro1_ Room Work Atmosphere Strict discipline and attendance to instruments and alarms as we'1 as proper behavior shall be exercised in the Control Room at all times. Non-technical material and audio / video entertainment devices are not permitted in the Control Room. Eating is permitted only i' it does not detract from attendance of the controls, and is limitet to those positions which most remain in the Control Room due to license requirements or operational considerations.

Boston Edison has requested an evaluation of the minimum required l concentration (weight percent) of sodium pentaborate for the Pilgrim .
St'andby Liquid Control System to comply with the NRC AWS rule rcquirements in 10CFR50.62 (Reference 3. ) . The minimum concentration l is to be based on equivalency to the minimum 86 gym,13-weight percent '
codium pentaborate control capacity requirement ~ stated in the NRC AWS rule. Equivalency.is calculated using the ratio of the specific Pilgrim mir?. anum values to reference plant values that the rdle is based on.
- For Pilgrim, a minimum solution concentration of 8.42 percent is required. This is based on the assumptions that the ninfamm ~
- "ri*h**"* ' 'h* * **"* **"* *" ' * ** * ** *hY * ** * *'*"d " 5 4 - 5 bf5 3 "atom percent, one pump is required to operate and the actual capacity of each pump exceeds the required minimum pump flow rate. .
3, 2.0 DISCUSSION h 2.1 SLC System Design Basis The generic design basis for the. SLC System is to provide a specified cold boron shutdown concentration The SLC to the reactor System wasvessel typically as described designed in NEDE-24222 (Ref erence 4. ) .
to provide the specified cold shutdown concentration in about one or two hours. During reload licensing evaluations, this shutdown concentration is verified by analysis to be adequate to render the core subcritical. The considerations' in the reload evaluation are -
independent of AW S and injection rate is not directly considered.
The AWS rule requires the addition of a new design requirement to the -
generic SLC System design basis. Changes to flow rate, solution concentration or boron enrichment, to meet the AWS Rule, must not invalidate the original system design basis.

The storage tank high and lowlevel alarms are being maintained at their original volume setpoints. The high level alarm alerts the operator to a solution volume near the storage tank overflow. The original volume concentration requirements were such that, should evaporation occur, a low level alarm would annunciate before the temperature-concentration requirements were exceeded. For the original solution, the maximum possible attainable concentration at the low level alarm was 14 weight percent. This corresponded to a saturation temperature of 60*F which is less than the original 65'F setpoint of the heat tracing. This ensured the operator was given an alarm before crystallization could occur from high solution concentration. The requirement for a low level alarm to annunciate before '
temperature-concentration requirements are exceeded is not needed because of the new lower solution concentration requirements (8.42'to 9.22 weight percent). Since the maximum concentration of the new solution is 9.22 weight percent, the maximum possible solution concentration. obtainable from evaporation without a high or low level alara is approximately 10.3 weight percent *, This corresponds to approximately a 44*F solution temperature (Iow solution temperature alara setpoints is 48*F). Due to the 53*F setpoint of the tank heater and heat tracing and the design room temperature of 60*F to
_ 100*F, solution concentration changes due to evaporation would be slow. The operator would be alerted to a solution concentration change from evaporation by either the low level alare or the technical specification monthly surveillance requirements before the crystallization point is reached.

Summary The SLCS by itself cannot cause an accident and it does not interact with any other systen whose malfunction could cause an accident. Hence, this modification on the system does not increase the probability of occurrence of an accident.
This modification increases the system's control capacity to satisfy MRC ATHS rule requirements. The modified system is more effective than the existing system in bringing the reactor to the cold shutdown condition from rated power. Hence, the modification does not increase the consequences of an accident.
This modification does not call for the safety equipment of the system to work at higher pressures, temperatures and more severe conditions than the existing levels. The modification makes the SLCS pumps redundant and it does not change the logic of the system. Hence, the modification does not increase the probability of the malfunction of the equipment important to l
safety.
This modification increases the margin of safety fcr system availability by reducing the possibility of system unavailability from solution temperature requirements.
This modification increases the margin of safety for flow rate requirements (required 39 GPH; available 78 GPH) and for minimum volume of l solution requirements (required 2068 gallons at a mid-range concentration
- of 8.82 percent; available 3960 gallons).

The upper limit, 9.22 weight percent, concentration of enriched sodium pentaborate has a saturation temperature of 38'F. To preclude precipitation, the minimum solution temperature will be maintained above 48'F, which is 10'F above the saturation temperature of the maximum concentration. In order to ensure a solution temperature greater than 48*F, the technical specifications will require determination of the solution temperature daily. This frequency is considered adequate because the room minimum design temperature is 60*F and any temperature change 1 would be gradual. In addition, the daily monitoring will be backed up by l the tank heater, heat tracing, and low temperature alaras. If the solution temperature in either the tank or pump suction lines reaches 53*F, the tank heater or heat tracing will commence operation. If the solution temperature in either the tank or suction lines cont 1~nues to drop to 48'F the operator will receive an alara in the control room, l Technical specifications will then require that the reactor be placed in a i cold shutdown condition within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of a solution temperature less

If the 8 u enrichment is found to be less than or equal to 54.5 atos percent, the Technical Specifications will require the operator to determine if the original shutdown criteria (equivalent of 700 ppe of natural boron) can be met. If
~
the original shutdown criteria can not be met Technical Specifications will require that the reactor be placed into cold shutdown within 24 g hours. If the original shutdown criteQa can be met, Technical Specifications will require that the B' enrichment be returned to greater than 54.5 Atos percent within seven days. If at the end of this seven day period, Bl v enrichment is still less than or equal to 54.3 atos percent, Technical Specifications will require that the NRC be notified within seven days with BECo's pla01 to bring the enrichment into compliance.

. adequate because B'O is a stable isotope and enrichment changes can only occur when additional boron is added. In addition to ensure that the 10 boron added is enriched properly, station procedures will require that B enrichment be determined as part of the receipt inspection before release the matrial for use. Technical Specifications will also require that o{0 B
enrichment test results be known within 30 days of sampling the material in the Standby Liquid Control Storage Tank. The 30 day time period allows sufficient time to perform the enrichment test and receive the test results. It is considered adequate from a safety point, due to the station procedure requirement to determine enrichment as part of the receipt inspection before release of the material for use. The requirement to determine enrichment after the addition of boron to the storage tank functions as a backup check to the station procedures.

Theresponsetim{0ofinjection the system is improved by this modification due to higher rate of 8 into the reactor.

- 0. Safety Function of Affected Systems /Comoonents .
The safety function of the SLC system is to provide a backup method, which is independent of the control rods, to maintain the reactor subcritical as the n'uclear system cools, in the event that not enough of the control rods can be inserted to counteract the positive reactivity affects of a colder moderator (Ref PNPS-FSAR, Rev. 6, Section 3.8.1). This modification has an impact on the safety analysis (Ref. PNPS-FSAR Section 3.8.4) and the Technical Specification Section 3.4 which need to be updated to include the NRC ATHS Rule (10CFR50.62) requirements.
E. Effects on Safety Function The enriched sodium pentaborate modification to the SLC will upgrade the system to the reactivity control capacity requirements of the NRC's ATHS Rule (10CFR50.62) and still provide the equivalent of 700 ppe of natural boron to maintain the original system shutdown requirement.
~
The low crystallization temperature (38'F corresponding to a a 9.22 weight
' percent concentration) of the enriched sodium pentaborate solution allows the reduction of the tank heater and heat tracing setpoint to 53*F. This
! temperature is 5'.F a~oove the low temperature alara setpoint of 48'F. The low solution crystallization temperature and the new tank heater and heat tracing setpoint will reduce the possibility'of reactor shutdown because of solution temperature requirements.
The addition of the pressure gauge and the relocation of the safety related test button for SLC pump 2078 will not have any adverse effects on the safety functions of the SLC system. Materi-Is for these changes will be procured, installed and tested in accordance with safety related requirements.
F. Analysis of Effects on Safety Functions As per GE analysis (see Attachment 2 to this safety evaluation), use of an 8.42 or greater percent concentration of enrighed sodium pentaborate (enriched to greater than 54.5 atos percent bio) will meet or exceed the NRC ATHS Rule 10CFR50.62 requirements of the SLCS at P11gris Nuclear Power Station. This analysis is based on an injection rate of 39 gallens per minute (Ref.1 & GE Calc. No. DRF C41-00095/2 L4, Sht.13A, SLCS Volume &
Concentration Chart). As each pump of the system has a minimum discharge capacity of 39 gallons per minute, the design is adequate to satisfy the NRC ATHS Rule requirements. The minimum concentration of 8.42 percent and aB10 enrichment greater than 54.5 percent provides a total margin of 136 percent beyond the amount needed to shutdown the reactor.

3.s.1 safety Objective The safety objective of the stan&y Liquid Control System (Stes) is -
to provide a backup method, which is independent of the control rods, to maintain the reactor suberitical as the nuclear system cools in the event that not enough of-the control rods can be inser4ed to '
counteract the positive reactivity effects of a colder moderator.
3.8.2 Safety Design Basis
- 1. Backup capability for reactivity control shall 'bd provided, independent of normal reactivity control provisions in the
- nuclear reactor, to be able to shut down the reactor if the normal control ever becomes inoperative. ,
The' backup system shall beve the capacity for controlling the 2.
re, activity difference between the steady state rated operating :
condition of the reactor with voids and the cold shotaewn *
- - ' ' condition ~, inclu61ng shutdown margin, to assure esmplete shutdown from the most reactive condition, at any time in the core life. ,
The time required for actuation and effectiveness of the backup h- 3.
control shall be consistent with the auclear reactivity rate of change predicted between rated operating and, cold shutdown
", i conditions. . A fast scram of the reactor or operational control ,
of fast reactivity transients is not specified to be accomplished .-
by this system.
- 4. Means shall be provided by which Uw ' functional performance i capability of the backup control system components can be verified periodically under conditions approaching actual use l
requirements, & substitute solution, rather than the actual - I
. neutron absorber solution, may be injected into the reactor to test.the operation of all components of the sedundant., Centrol .
systes. l
- 5. The neutron ' absorber shall be dispersed within the reactor core
( in sufficient quantity to provide a reasonable margin for imperfect =hhg or leakage.
- 6. The system shall be reliable to a degree consistent with its role as a special safety system the possibility of unintentional or .
accidental, shutdown of the reactor by this system shall be minimised.
- 3.3.3 De scription .
The' piping and instrumentation for the SLC5 is shown on Figure 3.5-1.
Figure 3.5 2 is a process diagram for the system. The SLC5 is manus 11y initiated from the main control room to pg a boron neutron l
absorber solution into the reactor if the operator believes the reacter cannot be shut down or kept shut down with the control rods.

prevent bypass flov'from one pump in case of relief valve failure in' the Inne from the other pump, a check valve is installed downstresa -
of each relief valva line in each pump discharge line.
The two emplosive actuated injection valves provide high assurance of .
opening when needed and ensure that boron will not leak lato the reactor even when the pumps are being tested. The valves have a firing reliability la excess of 93.93 percent. Each emplosive valve is closed by a plug la the inlet chamber. The plug is circumscribed with a deep groove so the end will readily shear off when pushed. by the valve plunger. This action opens the inlet hole through the plug. The sheared end is pushed out of the way la the chamber, and is shaped so it vill not block the ports after release. -

M1aB Wr APR 181985 DES WP (2) anxher 1crocker DEhtn MEMORANDUM FOR: Dennis Crvtchfield, Assistant Director for Safety Assessment Division of Licensing FROM: Don H. Beckham, Acting Deputy Director Division of Human Factors Safety
SUBJECT:
SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT FOR PILGRIM STATION, GENERIC LETTER 83-28. ITEM 1.1 (POST-TRIP REVIEW)(TACNO.52786)
By letter dated November 7,1983, the licensee of Pilgria Station responded to Generic Letter 83-28 with regard to required actions based on generir. implications of Salem ATWS events. The enclosed SER and SALP were prepared by the Licensee Qualifications Branch based upon TER input from its contractor, Science Applications International Corporation (SA!), after having reviewed the applicable portions of the licensee's response to Generic Letter 83-28.
We find that the licensee's response does nct meet the guidelines developed for post-trip review in the following areas:
- 1. The criteria for detennining the need for independent assessment of the event.
- 2. The method and criteria for comparing the event with expected plant performance.
- 3. A systeestic safety assessment program to assess unscheduled reactor trips.
We reccesnend that the licensee take necessary action to correct the deficiencies noted above, which are discussed in greater detail in Section III of the SER.
Acceptable responses to the above noted deficiencies are required before we can complete our review of the licensee's Post-Trip Review Program and Procedure for Pilgrim Station. We will review these responses when received and report our findings in a supplement to this SER.

Enclosure 1 SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT FOR GENERIC LETTER 83-28, ITEM 1.1 - POST-TRIP REVIEW (PROGRAM DESCRIPTION AND PROCEDURE)
PILGRIM STATION DOCKET NO.: 50-293
!. INTRODUCTION On February 25, 1983, both of the scram circuit breakers at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant f ailed to open upon an automatic reactor trip signal from the reactor protection system. This incident occurred during the plant start-up and the reactor was tripped manually by the operator about 30 seconds after the initiation of the automatic trip signal. The failure of the circuit breakers has been determined to be related to the sticking of the under voltage trip attachment. Prior to this incident, on February 22, 1983, at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plent, an automatic trip signal was generated based on steam generator low-low level during plant start-up. In this case, the reactor was tripped manually by the operator almost coincidentally with the automatic trip. Following these incidents, on February 28, 1983, the NRC Executive Director for Operations (E00), directed the staff to investigate and report on the generic implications of these occurrences at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant. The results of the staff's inquiry into the generic implications of the Salem unit incidents are reported in NUREG-1000, "Generic Implications of ATWS Events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant." As a result of this investigation, the Comission (NRC) requested (by Generic Letter 83-28 dated July 8,1983) all licensees of operating reactors, applicants for an operating license, and holders of construction permits to respond to certain generic concerns. These concerns '
are categorized into four areas: (1) Post-Trip Review (2) Equipment Classification and Vendor Interface, (3) Post-Maintenance Testing, and l (4) Reactor Trip System Reliability Improvements. l The first action item, Post-Trip Review, consists of Action Item 1.1, ;
"Program Description and Procedure" and Action Iter 1.2. "Data and a r7 mi qar l >1> 4r 9 @D
,y ,
V 2
Infonnation Capability." This safety evaluation report (SER) addresses Action item 1.1 only.
II. REYlEW GUIDELINES The following review guidelines were developed after initial evaluation of various utility responses to Item 1.1 of Generic Letter 83-28, and incorporate the best features of these submittals. As such, these review guidelines in effect represent a "good practices" approach to post-trip review. We have reviewed the licensee's response to item 1.1 against these guidelines: .
A. The licensee or applicant should have systematic safety assessment procedures established that will ensure that the following restart criteria are met before restart is authorized.
- The post-trip review team has determined the root cause and sequence of events resulting in the plant trip.
l
- Near term corrective actions have been taken to remedy the cause of l the trip.
l The post-trip review team has performed an analysis and determined that the major safety systems responded to the event within specified limits of the primary systen parameters.
l The post-trip review has not resulted in the discovery of a j potential safety concern (e.g., the root cause of the event occurs with a frequency significantly larger than expected).
- If any of the above restart criteria are not inet, ther. an independent assessment of the event is perfonned by the Plamt Operations Review Comenittee (PORC), or another designated group with similar authority and experience.
l
3 B. The responsibilities and authorities of the persennel who will perfonn the review and analysis should be well defined.
The post-trip review team leader should be a member of plant management at the shif t supervisor level or above and should hold or should have held an SRO license on the plant. The team leader should be charged with overall responsibility for directing the post-trip review, including data gathering and data assessment and he/she should have the necessary authority to obtain all personnel and data needed for the post. trip review.
- A second person on the review team should be an STA or should hold a relevant engineering degree with special transient analysis training.
- The team leader and the STA (Engineer) should be responsible to concur on a decision /reconnendation to restart the plant. A nonconcurrence from either of these persons should be sufficient to prevent restart until the trip has been reviewed by the PORC or equivalent organization.
C. The licensee or applicant should indicate that the plant response to the.
trip event will be evaluated and a determination made as to whether the plant response was within acceptable limits. The evaluation should include:
- A verification of the proper operation of plant systems and equipant by comparison of the pertinent data obtained during the post . rip review to the applicable data provided in the FSAR.
- An analysis of the sequence of events to verify the proper functioning of safety related and other imortant equipment. Where possible, comparisons with previous similar events should be made.
4 D. The licensee or applicant should have procedures to ensure that all physical evidence necessary for an independent assessment is preserved.
E. Each licensee or applicant should provide in its submittal, copies of the plant procedures which contain the infomation required in Items A through D. As a minimum, these should include the followinc:
- The criteria for detemining the acceptability of restart The qualifications, responsibilities and authorities of key personnel involved in the post-trip review process
- The methods ard criteria for determining whether the plant variables and system responses were within the limits as described in the FSAR
- The criteria for determining the need for an independer.t review.
l 111. EVALUATION AND CONCLUSION i
l By letter dated November 7,1983, the licensee of Pilgrim Statfori provided infomation regarding its Post. Trip Review Program and Procedures. We have evaluated the licensee's program and procedures against the review guidelines developed as described in Section II. A brief description of the licensee's response and the staff's evaluation of the response against each of the review guidelines is provided below:
A. The licensee has established the criteria for determining the acceptability of restart. Based on our review, we find that the licensee's criteria conform to the guidelines as described in the above Section !!.A and, therefore, are acceptable.
l l
I l
B. The qualifications, responsibilities and authorities of the personnel who will perfonn the review and analysis have been clearly described.
We have reviewed the licensee's chain of command for responsibility for post-trip review and evaluation, and find it acceptable.
C. The licensee has not addressed the methods and criteria for comparing the event information with known or expected plant behavior. We recomend that the ' pertinent data obtained during the post-trip review be compared to the applicable data provided in the FSAR. Where possible, comparisons with previous similar events should be made.
D. The licensee has indicated that if the cause of the trip is unknown, an independent assessment conducted by the Operation Review Connittee is required for the event. We find that this action to be taken by the licensee is not sufficient to ensure safe plant operation. We reconnend that if any of the restart criteria are not met an independent assessment of the event should be perfonned. The licensee has established procedures to ensure that all physical evidence necessary for an independent assessment is preserved.
,E. The licensee has not provided for our review a systematic safety assessment program to assess unscheduled reactor trips. We reconnend that the licensee develop a systematic safety assessment program to handle unscheduled reactor trips.
l Acceptable responses to the above noted deficiencies are required before we can con 19 ete our review of the licensee's Post-Trip Review Program and Procedures for Pilgrim Station. We will review these responses when received and report our findings in a supplement to this SER.

PIL6 RIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION DOCKET NOS. 50-293 INTRODUCTION AND SUM 4ARY On February 25, 1983, both of the scram circuit breakers at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant failed to open upon an automatic reactor trip signal frts the reactor protection system. This incident was tenninated manually by the operator about 30 seconds after the initiation of the automatic trip sigval.
The failure of the circuit breakers was determined to be related to the sticking of the undervoltage trip attachment. Prior to this incident, on Febreary 22, 1983, at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant, an auttmatic trip signal was generated based on steam generator low-low level during plant start-up. In this case, the reactor was tripped manually by the operator almost coin-cidentally with the automatic trip.
Following these incidents, on February 28, 1983, the NRC Executive Director for Operations (E00), directed the staff to investigate and report on the geveric implic&tions of these occurrences at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant. .
The results of the staff's inquiry into the generic implications of the Salem l
unit incidents are reported in h0 REG-1000. "Generic Implications of the ATW5 l Events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant." As a result of this investigation, the Counission (NRC) requested (by Generic Letter 83-28 dated July 8,1983I )

- 1. INTRODUCTION AND SUMLARY On February 25, 1983, both of the scram circuit breakers at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant f ailed to open upon an automatic reactor trip signal from the reactor protection system. This incident was terminated manually by the operator about 30 seconds af ter the initiation of the
, aiutomatic trip signal. The f ailure of the circuit breakers was determined to be related to the sticking of the undervoltage trip attachment. Prior to this incident, on February 22, 1983, an automatic trip signal was generated at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant based on steam generator low-low level during plant startup. In this case, the reactor was tripped manually by the operator almost coincidentally with the automatic trip.
Following these incidents, on February 28, 1983, the NRC Executive 31 rector for Operations (E00), directed the staff to investigate and report om the generic impitcations of the occurrences at Unit 1 of the Salen nuclear Power Plant. -The results of the staf f's inquiry into the generic implications of the Salem Unit 1 incidents are reported in NUREG-1000
- Generic Implications of the ATWS fvents at the Sales Nuclear Power Plant.b As a result of this investigation, the Commission (NRC) requested (by Generic Letter 83-28, dateo July 8,1983 ) all licensees of eperating reactors, applicants for an operating license, and holders of construction permits to respond to generic issues raised by the analyses of these two ATWS events.
This report is an evaluation of the responses submitted from a selected' group of Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs) for Ites 2.1 (Part 1) of Generic Letter 83-28.
The results of the review of four individual plant responsas are combined and reported on in this document to enhance review ef ficiency.
The specific plants reviewed in this report were selected based on the
e convenience of review. The actual documents which were reviewed for each evaluation are insted at the end of each plant evalutten. The generic documents referenced in this report are listed at the and of the report,
, Part 1 of Ites 2.1 of Generic Letter 83-28 requires the licensee or applicant to confirm that all reactor trip system components are
. identified, classified, and treated as safety-related, as indicated in the f ollowing statement:
Licensees and appitcants shall confirm that all components whose functioning is required to trip the reactor are identified as safety-related on documents, procedures, and infor1 nation handling systems used in the plant to control safety-related activities, including maintenance, work orders, and parts replacement.

- 2. PLANT REJPONSE EVALUATIONS 2.1 Hooe Creek 50-354 (OLI
. The applicant for Hope Creek (Public Service Electric and Gas Company) provided responses to the requirements of Ites 2.1 (Part 1) of Generic Letter 83-28 in submittals dated March 30, 1984, December 17, 1944 and May 21, 1985. In the first submittal the applicant described their plan to develop a Master Equipment List (MEL) which would identify the components required to initiate reactor trip and designate these components as safety-related. The MEL imposes quality assurance requirements for the safety-related components and is the controlling document for safety-related activities. The applicant stated intentions to be in compliance with Iten 2.1 (Part 1) prior to September 1984.
The secor,d submittal reviewed progress to December 17, 1984 and outlined a revised program which would meet the requirements of Ites 2.1 (Part 1) prior to March 1985., The applicant confirmed la their May 21,
- 1985 submittal that review of the reactor trip system had been completed and that reactor trip system components were verified to be classified safety-related on appropriate design documents, however, the MEL had not been completed for all components of the reactor trip system. The applicant stated that this ef fort would be completed by September 30, 1945.
2.2 Conclusion
- Based on a review of the applicant's subelttals, we find that the l applicant's responses confirm that components required to trip the reactor
! have been designated safety-related and that the MEL is used to control all activities relating to safety-related components. ide, therefore, find that the applicant's responses meet the requirements of Ites 2.1 (Part 1) of Generic Letter 83-28, and are acceptable.

2.3 Peach Botton 2 00-277 TAC N0. 52665 Peach Bottos 3 50-278 TAC NO. 52866 The licensee fcr Peach bottos 2 and 3 (Philadelphia Electric Co.)
provided. responses to the requirements of Item 2,1 (Part 1) of Generic Letter 83-28 in submittals dated November 4,1983 April 23,1984 and May 29, 1985.
The responses state that all systems that contribute to the reactor trip function have been identified as safety-related in the current 'Q' list and that all components of safety-related systems are safety-related unless specifically excluded by safety evaluation. The 'Q' 11st is used to identify the applicable codes, standards and procedures to be used for activities relating to the safety-related components.
Each item or service to be procured is reviewed to determine tf it is safety-related. The review is performed by a congntrant member of the plan staf f or the Engineering and Research Departaent.
2.4 Conclusion l
Item 2.1 (Part 1) requires licensees to confirm that all caq>enents whose functioning is required to trip the reactor are identified as safety-related on documents, procedures, and inforestion handling systems used in the plant to control safety-related activities, including maintenance, work orders, and parts replacement.
Based on the licensee's submittal we find that the list of camponents l
l required to trip the reactor is incomplete. We also find that the licensee's program does not *dentify safety-related components en relevant plant documents. The response, therefore, does not meet the regstrements of Item 2.1 (Part 1) of Generic Letter 83-28 and is unacceptable.

2.5 Perry 150-440 (Oli and _ Perry 2 50-44i (0L1 The applicant for Perry 1 and 2 (Cleveland Electric Illuminating Co.)
provided responses to the requirements of Item 2.1 (Part 1) of Generic
. Letter 83-28 in submittals dated April 6,1984 and August 28, 1985. The applicant reported in the first submittal that the 'Q'-list for the plants was undergoing review to verify the correct classification of safety-related components. The 'Q'-list is to be used to determine classification for maintenance, work orders and procurement activities.
The second submittal reported that the 'Q'-list evaluation had been completed and that all nimbered components from the 5 systems that contribute to the reactor trip function had been reviewed and classified as safety-related or nonsafety-related. The 'Q'-list is the saf ety-related subset of the Perry Equipment Master Files System (PEMS) used to determine the classification for woti arders, maintenance and parts procurement.
2.6 Conclusion Based on the review of the applicant's submittals, we find that the applicant has verified that the components necessary to perform reactor trip are classified as safety-related and that this classification program imposes safety-related procedures on work orders, maintenance, and procurement activities. We, therefore, find that the applicant's response meet the requirements of Ites 2.1 (Part 1) of Generic Letter 83-28 and are acceptable.

REVISED SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT FOR PILGRI.M STATION, GENERIC LETTER 83-28, ITEM 1.1 (POST-TRIP REVIEW)
Reference:
Memorandum from D. Beckham to D. Crutchfield "Safety Evaluation Report for Pilgrim Station, Generic Letter 83-28. Item 1.1 (Post-Trip Review)," dated April 18, 1985.
By the above referenced memorandum, we forwarded the LQB SER with regard to Pilgrim Station. In our SER, we stated that the licensee's response did not meet the guidelines developed for post-trip review in the following areas:
- 1. The criteria for determining the need for independent assessment of the event.
- 2. The method and criteria for comparing the event with expected plant performance, j
- 3. A systematic safety assessment program to assess unscheduled reactor trips.

(PROGRAM DESCRIPTION AND PROCEDURE)
.. PIL6 RIM STATION DOCKET N05.: 50-293
- 1. INTRODUCTION On February 25, 1983, both of the scram circuit breakers at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant (SNPP) failed to open upon an automatic reactor trip signal frv i the reactor protection system. This incident occurred during the plat start-up and the reactor was tripped manually by the operator about 30 seconds after the initiation of the automatic trip signal.
'The failure of the circuit breakers has been determined to be related to the sticking of the under voltage trip attachment. On February 22, 1983, during start-up of SMPP, Unit 1, an automatic trip signal occurred as the result of steam generator low-low level. In this case, the reactor was tripped nanually by the operator almost coincidentally with the automatic trip.
Following these incidents, on February 28, 1983, the NRC Executive Director for Operations (EDO) directed the staff to investigate and report on the generic implications of these occurrences. The results of the staff's inquiry into these incidents are reported in NUREG-1000, "Generic
! Implications of ATWS Events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant." As a result of this investigation,' the Comission requested (by Generic Letter 83-28 e dated July 8,1983) all licensees of operating reactors, applicants for an operating license, and holders of construction permits to respond to certain generic concerns. These concerns are categorized into four areas: (1)
Post-TripReview,(2) Equipment Classification and Yendor Interface, (3)
Post-Maintenance Testing, and (4) Reactor Trip System Reliability l Improvements.
The first action item, Post-Trip Review, consists of Action Item 1.1, "Program Description and Procedure," and Action Item 1.2, "Data and Information Capability." This safety evaluation report (SER) addresses Action Item 1.1 only.

- 11. REVIEW GUIDELINES The following review guidelines were developed after initial evaluation of various utility responses to Item 1.1 of Generic Lecter 83-28, and incorporate the best features of these submittals. As such, these review guidelines in effect represent a "good practices" approach to post-trip review. We have reviewed the licensee's response to item 1.1 against these guidelines:
A. The licensee or applicant should have systematic safety assessmemt procedures established that will ensure that the following restart criteria are met before restart is authorized.
The post-trip review team has determined the root cause amd sequence of events resulting in the plant trip.
- Near term corrective actions have been taken to remedy the cause of the trip.
- The post-trip review team has perfonned an analysis and determined that,the major safety systems responded to the event withis specified limits of the primary system parameters.
- The post-trip review has not resulted in the discovery of a potential safety concern (e.g.3 the root cause of the event occurs with a frequency significantly larger than expected).
- If any of the above restart criteria are not met, then an independent assessment of the event is perfonned by the Plant Operations Review Comittee (PORC), or another designated group with similar authority and experience.
B. The responsibilities and authorities of the personnel who will perform
~'
the review and analysis should be well defined.
The post-trip review team leader should be a member of plant management at the shift supervisor level or above and should hold or should have held an SR0 license fcc the plant. The team leader should be charged with overall responsibility for directing the post-trip review, including data gathering and data assessment and he/she should have the necessary authority to obtain all personnel and data needed for the post-trip review.
A second person on the review team should be an STA or should hold a relevant engineering degree with special transient analysis training.
The team leader and the STA (Engineer) should be responsibie to concur on a decision /recosinendation to restart the plant. A nonconcurrence from either of these persons should be sufficient to prevent restart until the trip has been reviewed by the PORC or equivalent organization.
C. The licen$ee or applicant should indicate that the plant response to the trip event will be evaluated and a determination made as to whether the plant response was within acceptable limits. The evaluation should include:
A verification of the proper operatiam of plant systems and equipment by comparison of the pertirent data obtained during the post-trip review to the applicable data provided in the FSAR,
- An analysis of the sequence of events to verify the proper functioning of safety related and other important equipment. Where possible, comparisons with previous similar events should be made.
D. The,11censee or applicant should have procedures to ensure that all physical evidence necessary for an independent assessment is preserved.
E. Each licensee or applicant should provide in its submittal, copies of the plant procedures which contain the information required in Items A through D. As a minimum, these should include the following:
The criteria for determining the acceptability of restart The qualifications, responsibilities and authorities of key personnel involved in the post-trip review process The methods and criteria for determining whether the plant variables and system responses were within the limits as described in the FSAR The criteria for determining the need for an independent review.
III. EVALUATION AND CONCLUSION By letters dat,ed November 7,1983, and August 13, 1985, the licensee of Pilgrim Statio'n provided infonnation regarding its Post-Trip Review Program and Procedures. We have evaluated the licensee's program and procedures against the review guidelines described in Section II. A brief description of the licensee's response and the staff's evaluation of the response against each of the review guidelines is provided below:
A. The licensee has established the criteria for determining the acceptability of restart. Based on our review, we find that the licensee's criteria conform to the guidelines described in Section II.A and, therefore, are acceptable.
i 5-B. The qualifications, responsibilities and authorities of the personnel who will perform the review and analysis have been clearly described.
We have reviewed the licensee's chain of conmand for responsibility for post-trip review and evaluation, and find it acceptable.
C. The licensee has described the methods and criteria for comparing the event infonnation with known or expected plant behavior. Based on our review, we find them to be acceptable.
D. The licensee has established the criteria for determining the need for an independent assessment conducted by the Operation Review Connittee.
In addition, the licensee has established procedures to ensure that all physical evidence necessary for an independent assessment is preserved.
We find these actions conform with the guidelines described in Sections !!.A and D.
E. The licensee has provided a systematic safety assessment program to assess unscheduled reactor trips. We have reviewed this program and find it acceptable.
Based on our r,eview, we conclude that the licensee's Post-Trip Review Progras and Procedures' for Pilgrim Station are acceptable.

PILGRIM STATION DOCKET NO. 50-293 I. INTRODUCTION On February 25, 1983, both of the scram circuit breakers at Unit 1 of the Salem Nuclear Power Plant (SNPP) failed to open upon an automatic reactor trip signal from the reactor protection system. This incident occurred during the plant start-up and the reactor was tripped manually by the operator about 30 seconds after the initiation of the automatic trip signal. The failure of the circuit breakers has been detennined to be related to the sticking of the undervoltage trip attachment. On February 22, 1983, during start-up of SNPP, Unit 1, an automatic trip signal occurred as the result of steam generator low-low level. In this case, the reactor was tripped manually by the operator almost coincidentally with the automatic trip. Following these incidents, on February 28, 1983, the NRC Executive Director for Operations (E00) directed the staff to investigate and report on the generic implications of these occurrences. The results of the staff's inquiry into these incidents are re-ported in NUREG-1000, "Generic Implications of ATWS Events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant." As a result of this investigation, the Consission requested (by Generic Letter 83-28 dated July 8,1983) all licensees of operating reactors, applicants for an operating license, and holders of construction permits to respond to certain generic concerns.

The first action item, Post-Trip Review, consists of Action Ites 1.1, "Program Description and Procedure" and Action Item 1.2, "Data and Information Capabili ty. " This safety evaluation report (SER) addresses Action Item 1.2 only.
II. REVIEW GUIDELINES The following review guidelines were developed after initial evaluation of the various utility responses to Item 1.2 of Generic Letter 83-28 and incorporate the best features of these submittals. As such, these review guidelines in effect represent a "good practices" approach to post-trip review. ble have re-viewed the licensee's response to Item 1.2 against these guidelines:
A. The equipment that provides the digital sequence of events (SOE) record and the analog time history records of an unscheduled shutdown should provide a reliable source of the necessary information to be used in the post-trip review. Each plant variable which is necessary to determine the cause and progression of the events following a post trip should be monitored by at least one recorder (such as a sequence-of-events recorder or a plant process computer) for digital parameters; and strip charts, a plant process computer or analog recorder for analog (time history) variables. Performance characteristics guidelines for SOE and time history recorders are as follows:
o Each sequence of events recorder should be capable of detecting and recording the sequence of events with a sufficient time discrimination capability to ensure that the time responses associated with each monitored safety-related system can be ascertained, and that a detennination can be made as to whether the time response is within acceptable limits based on FSAR Chapter 15 Accident Analyses. The reconsnended guidelines for the SOE time discrimination is approximately 100 milliseconds. If current SOE recorders do not have this time discrimination capability the licensee should show that the current time discrimination capability is sufficient for an adequate reconstruction of the course of the reactor trip and post-trip events. As a minimum this should include the ability to adequately reconstruct the transient and accident scenarios presented in Chapter 15 of the plant FSAR.
, o Each analog time history data recorder should have a sample interval small enough so that the incident can be accurately i
reconstructed following a reactor trip. As a minimum, the licensee should be able to reconstruct the course of the transient and accident sequences evaluated in the accident 1
4 analysis of Chapter 15 of the plant FSAR. The recammended guideline for the sample interval is 10 seconds. If the time history equipment does not meet this guideline, the licensee should show that the time history capability is sufficient to accurately reconstruct the transient and accident sequences presented in Chapter 15 of the FSAR. To support the post-trip analysis of the cause of the trip and the proper functioning of involved safety related equipment, each analog history data recorder should be capable of updating and retaining infonnation from approximately five minutes prior to the trip until at least ten minutes after the trip.
o All equipment used to record sequence of events and time history infonnation should be powered from a reliable and non-interruptible power source. The power source used need not be Class 1E.
B. The sequence of events and time history recording equipment should monitor sufficient digital and analog parameters, respectively, to assure that the course of the reactor trip and post-trip events can be reconstructed. The parameters monitored should provide sufficient infonnation to determine the root cause of the unscheduled shutdown, the progression of the reactor trip, and the response of the plant parameters and protection and safety systems to the unscheduled shutdowns. Specifically, all input parameters
- S-associated with reactor trips, safety injections and other safety-related systems as well as output parameters sufficient to record the proper functioning of these systems should be recorded for use in the post-trip review. The parameters deemed necessary, as a minimum, to perfonn a post-trip review that would detennine if the plant remained within its safety limit design envelope are presented in Table 1. They were selected on the basis of staff engineering judgrnent following a complete evaluation of utility submittals. If the licensee's SOE recorders and time history recorders do not monitor all of the parameters suggested in these tables the licensee should show that the existing set of monitored parameters are sufficient to establish that the plant remained within the design envelope for the accident conditions analyzed in Chapter 15 of the plant FSAR.
C. The infonnation gathered by the sequence of events and time history recorders should be stored in a manner that will allow for data retrieval and analysis. The data may be retained in either hardcopy (e.g., com-puter printout, strip chart record), or in an accessible memory (e.g.,
magneticdiscortape). This information should be presented in a read-able and meaningful fonnat, taking into consideration good human factors practices such as those outlined in N1JREG-0700.
~
I D. Retention of data from all unscheduled shutdowns provides a valuable
]
reference source for the determination of the acceptability of the plant vital parameter and equipment response to subsequent unscheduled l
shutdowns. Infonnation gathered during the post-trip review is to be retained for the life of the plant for post-trip review comparisons of subsequent events.
III. EVALUATION AND CONCLUSION By letter dated November 7,1983, the Boston Edison Company provided information regarding its post-trip review program data and infonnaticei capabilities for Pilgrim Station. We have evaluated the licensee's submittal against the review guidelines described in Section II. Deviations from the pidelines of Section II were discussed with representatives of the licensee by telephone on February 12 and 26,1986. A brief description of the licensee's responses and the staff's evaluation of the responses against each of the review guidelines follows:
A. The licensee has described the perfonnance characteristics of the equipment used to record the sequence of events and time history data needed for post-trip review. Based on our review of the licensee's submittal and the information provided by the licensee during the above telecons, we find that the sequence of events reconke and time history recorder characteristics conform to the guidelines described in Section II A, and are acceptable.
. l l
l l
- 8. The licensee has established and identified the parameters to be monitored and recorded for post-trip review. Based on our review, up find that the parameters selected by the licensee include all but one of those identified in Table 1. While Diesel Generator Status is not included as a parameter, there are indicators in the control room that provide this infomation. The staff finds this acceptable. Con-sequently, we find that the licensee's selection of r'rameters meets the intent of the guidelines described in Section II.B and is, there-fore, acceptable.
C. The licensee described the means for storage and retrieval of the infonnation gathered by the sequence et events and time history recorders, and for the presentation of this information for post-trip review and analysis. Based on our review, we find that this infonsation will be presented in a readable and meaningful format, and that the storage, retrieval and presentation confonn to the guidelines of Section II C.
I D. During the February 26, 1986 telecon, the licensee stated that the data and infonnation used during post-trip reviews are being retained is an l accessible manner for the life of the plant. Based on this infoniation, i
we find that the licensee's program for data retention conforms to the guidelines of Section II D, and is acceptable.
8 Based on our review of the applicant's submittal and the telecons with the licensee, we conclude that the licensee's post-trip review data and infonna-tion capabilities for Pilgrim Station are acceptable.
