==Subject:==
Clinton Power Station Proposed Amendment of Facility Operating License No. NPF-62
 
==Dear Sir:==
 
Pursuant to 10CFR50.90, Illinois Power (IP) hereby applies for amendment of Facility Operating License No. NPF-62, Appendix A - Technical Specifications, for Clinton Power Station (CPS). This request consists of proposed changes to improve and reformat the CPS Technical Specifications consistent with NUREG-1434, " Improved BWR-6 Technical Specifications", Revision 0, September 1992.
This submittal represents a significant effort on the part of the BWR-6/ Mark III community to prepare consistent license amendment applications. As the BWR-6 owners have previously discussed with Mr. Grimes and others ofyour staff, implementation of this request will result in a significant contribution to increased safety in operation of CPS. In addition, this request implements cost saving efrorts on the part of both the NRC and IP in that significant NRC resource savings can be realized through generic review of the application of NUREG-1434 to the BWR-6 plants. Further, implementation of this request reduces the likelihood of future Technical Specification changes for CPS by reducing IP's backlog ofindividual line item changes.
As part of the development of this request, IP has applied the criteria contained in the Final NRC Policy Statement on Technical Specification Improvements to the current CPS Technical Specifications utilizing BWR Owners' Group (BWROG) report NEDO-31466, "Technica! Specification Screening Criteria Applicatio. and Risk Assessment,"
(and Supplement 1) as incorporated in NUREG-1434. The results of the application of the screening criteria for CPS are contained in Enclosure 1 to this letter.                                  f e

Each of the changes are annotated to identify the reasons for the change. Similar to Attachment I to Enclosure 2, each of the changes has been categorized for review purposes. The changes are identified as "B" (prosides plant-specific information contained in brackets in NUREG-1434), "P" (provides plant specific information not contained in brackets in NUREG-1434), or "C" (denoting a generic change to NUREG-1434). The discussion / justification for each change to NUREG-1434 is contained at the end of the associated Attachment 2.

An aflidavit supporting the facts set forth in this letter and its enclosures is        l provided in the attachment to this letter.
IP has reviewed the proposed changes against the criteria of 10CFR51.22 for            )
categorical exclasion from environmental impact considerations. The proposed changes            I do not involve a significant hazards consideration, or significantly increase the amounts or change the types of efiluents that may be released offsite, nor do they significantly increase individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposures. Based on the foregoing, IP concludes that the proposed changes meet the criteria given in 10CFR51.22(c)(9) for a categorical exclusion from the requirement for an Environmental Impact Statement.
In closing, this request represents expenditure of significant resources on the part of the BWR-6 utiliiest and culminates an accomplishment that sets a precedence in the industry. IP looks forward to working with your staffin obtaining your approval of this request.
Sincerely yours,

: 1. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this document is to confirm the results of the BWR Owners' Group (BWROG) application of the Technical Specification selection criteria on a plant specific basis for Clinton Power Station (CPS).                  Illinois Power Company (IP) has applied the selection criteria to each of the current CPS Technical Specifica-tions        utilizing          the  BWROG      report        NEDO-31466,    " Technical Specification Screening Criteria Application and Risk Assessment" (and Supplement 1), as incorporated in NUREG-1434, "BWR-6 Improved Technical Specifications," Revision O.                        Additionally, in accordance with the NRC guidance, this confirmation of the application of selection criteria to CPS includes confirming the risk insights from Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) evaluations, provided in the NEDO documents, as applicable to CPS.

Enclosure I to U.602196 Page 4 of 65
: 2. SELECTION CRITERIA IP has utilized the selection criteria provided in the NRC Final Policy Statement on Technical Specification Improvements of July 16, 1993, to develop the results contained in the attached matrix.
Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) insights as used in the BWROG submittal were utilized, confirmed by IP, and are discussed in the next section of this report. The selection criteria and discussion provided in the NRC Final Policy Statement are as follows:
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:
Discussion of Criterion 1:      A basic concept in the adequate protection of the public health and safety is the prevention of accidents.        Instrumentation is installed to detect significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary so as to allow operator actions to either correct the condition or to shut down the plant safely, thus reducing the likelihood of a loss-of-coolant accident. This criterion is intended to ensure that Technical Specifications control those instruments specifically installed to detect excessive reactor coolant system leakage.
Criterion 2:      A process variable that is an initial condition of a Design Basis Accident (DBA) or Transient Analyses that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier:
CLINTON POWER STATION                2-1                          Selection Critoria
(                                                  .
 
Enclosure 1 to U-602196 Page 5 of 65 Discussion of Criterion 2:        Another basic concept in the adequate protection of the public health and safety is that the plant shall be operated within the bounds of the initial conditions assumed in the existing Design Basis Accident and Transient Analyses.      These analyses consist of postulated events, analyzed in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) ,
for which    a  structure,    system,  or    component must meet specified functional goals.      These analyses are contained in Chapters 6 and 15 of the USAR (or equivalent chapters) and are identified as Condition II, III, or IV events (ANSI N18.2) (or equivalent) that either assume the failure of or present a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
As used in Criterion    2,  process variables are only those parameters for which specific values or ranges of values have been chosen as reference boureds in the Design Basis Accident or Transient Analyses and shAch are monitored and controlled during power operation such that process values remain within the analysis bounds.
The purpose of this criterion is to capture those process variables that have initial values assumed in the Design Basis Accident and Transient Analyses, and which are monitored and controlled during power operation. So long as these variables are maintained within the established values, risk to the public safety is presumed to be acceptably low.
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:
CLINTON POWER STATION            2-2                Selection Criteria
 
Enclosure 1 to U-6021%
Page 6 of 65 Discussion of Criterion 3:      A third concept in the adequate protection of the public health and safety is that in the event that a postulated Design Basis Accident or Transient should occur,    structures,    systems,            and components are available to function or to actuate in order to. mitigate the consequences of the Design Basis Accident or Transient.
Safety sequence analyses (or their equivalent) have been performed in recent years and provide a method of presenting the plant response to an accident.              These can be used to define the primary success paths.
A safety sequence analysis is a systematic examination of the actions required to mitigate the consequences of events considered in the plant's Design Basis Accident and Transient Analyses, as presented in Chapters 6 and 15 of the plant's Updated Safety Analysis Report (or equivalent chapters) . Such a safety sequence analysis considers all applicable events, whether explicitly or implicitly presented.                                        The primary success path of a safety sequence analysis consists of the combination and sequences of equipment needed to operate                                                                      ,
(including consideration of the single failure criteria),                                                    so that the    plant response to Design Basis Accidents                                                        and Transients limits the consequences of these events to within the appropriate acceptance criteria.
It is the intent of this criterion to capture into Technical Specifications only those structures, systems, and components that are part of the primary success path of a safety sequence analysis. Also captured by this criterion are those support and actuation systems that are necessary for items in the primary success path to successfully function.
Criterion 4:    A structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) has shown to be significant to public health and safety:
CLINTON POWER STATION              2-3                                  Selection Criteria
 
Enclosure I to U-602196 Page 7 of 65 Discussion of Criterion 4:    It is the Commission's policy that licensees retain in their Technical Specifications LCOs, action statements and Surveillance Requirements for the following systems (as applicable) which operating experience and PSA have generally shown to be significant to public health and safety, as well as any other structures, systems, or components that meet this criterion:
* Reactor    Core    Isolation    Cooling                      (RCIC)/ Isolation Condenser;
* Residual Heat Removal (RHR);
* Standby Liquid Control (SLC) ; and
* Recirculation Pump Trip (RPT).
The Commission recognizes that other structures, systems, or components may meet this criterion.          Plant- and design-specific PSAs have yielded valuable insight to unique plant vulnerabilities not fully recognized in the safety analysis report Design Basis Accident or Transient analyses.                                              It is the intent of this criterion that those requirements which PSA or operating experience exposes as significant to public health and safety-consistent with the Commission's Safety Goal and Severe Accident Policies-be retained or included in Technical Specifications.
CLINTON POWER STATION                            2-4              Selection Criteria
 
Enclosure I to U-602196 Page 8 of 65 The Commission expects that licensees, in preparing their Technical Specifications-related submittals, will utilize any plant specific PSA or risk survey and any available literature on risk insights and PSAs. This material should be employed to strengthen the technical bases for those requirements that remain in Technical Specifications, when applicable, and to verify that none of the requirements to be relocated contain constraints of prime importance in limiting the likelihood or severity of the accident sequences that are commonly found to dominate risk. Similarly, the NRC staff will also employ risk insights and PSAs in evaluating Technical Specifications-related submittals. Furthermore, as part of the Commission's ongoing program of improving Technical Specifications, it will continue to consider methods to better use risk and reliability information to define future generic Technical Specification requirements.

: 3. PROBABILISTIC RISK ASSESSMENT (PRA) INSIGHTS Introduction and Obiectives The Final Policy Statement includes a statement that the NRC expects Owners Groups to utilize the available literature on risk insights to verify that none of the requirements to be relocated contain constraints of prime importance in limiting the likelihood or severity of the accident sequences that are commonly found to dominate risk.
Those Technical Specifications proposed as being relocated to other plant controlled documents will be maintained ' under the 10 CFR I
50.59 review program. These Specifications have been compared to a variety of PRA material with two purposes: (1) to identify if a component or variable is addressed by PRA, and 2) if addressed, to                                              ,
judge if the component or variable is risk-important.              In addition,                                  )
in some cases risk was judged independent of any specific PRA material.      The intent of the review was to provide a supplemental                                            I screen to the deterministic criteria.              Technical Specifications to l
be retained were not reviewed.                This review was accomplished .in                                  l BWROG submittal NEDO-31466 and Supplement-1, except where discussed in Appendix A,      '' Justification For Specification Relocation," and has been confirmed by IP for those Specifications to be relocated.
Assumptions and Approach Briefly, the approach used in NEDO-31466 and Supplement 1 was the following-                                                                                                      1 l
The risk assessment analysis evaluated the loss of function of the system or component whose LCO was being considered for relocation and qualitatively assessed the associated effect on core damage frequency and offsite releases.              The assessment was based on available literature on plant risk insights and PRAs. The table provided at the end of this section lists the CLINTON POWER STATION                  3-1                        PRA Insights

l likelihood or severity of the accident sequences that are I
commonly found to dominate plant safety risks. LCOs which did not meet the screening criteria were evaluated.          Those satisfying a criterion were not. The following analysis steps were performed for each LCO proposed for relocation:
: a. List the function (s) affected by removal of the LCO item.
: b. Determine the effect of loss of the LCO item on the function (s).

: c. Identify compensating provisions, redundancy, and backups                    j related to the loss of the LCO item.                                        l l
: d. Determine the relative probability (high, medium, or low) of the loss of the function (s) assuming the LCO item is removed from Technical Specifications and controlled by                      ,
I other procedures or programs.      Use information from current PRAs and related analyses to establish the relative probability.
: e. Determine the relative significance (high, medium, or low) of the loss of the function (s). Use information                    i from current PRAs and related analyses to establish the relative significance.                                                      I CLINTON POWER STATION          3-2                    PRA Insights

3/4.1.3.6 CONTROL ROD DRIVE HOUSING SUPPORT LCO Statement The control rod drive housing support shall be in place.
Discussion:
Control rod drive housing support supports control rod OPERABILITY by plant configuration management.            As such,    control rod OPERABILITY cannot be satisfied without the support being in place.
Without control rod OPERABILITY confirmed, appropriate Action Statements of the control rod OPERABILITY Specification must be entered. There is no need for duplicate requirements in a subsystem LCO. Relocation of this LCO is appropriate since plant configuration (the control rod housing support in place) would be controlled by post-maintenance procedures.
Comparison to Screenina Criteria:
: 1. The control rod drive housing support is neither used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).
: 2. The control rod drive housing support is not capable of monitoring a process variable that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analyses.
: 3. The control rod drive housing support is not part of a primary success path in the mitigatica of a DBA or transient. It does support the Control Rod OPERABILITY Specification which has been retained in the CPS Technical Specifications. As such, having the control drive housing support not in place impacts control rod OPEPABILITY, and appropriate actions are initiated which bound those actions that would be implemented because of the housing support being out of place. There is no need for duplicate actions.      Control rod drive housing support contribution to DBA and transient mitigation is preserved by the Control Rod OPERABILITY Specification          (LCO                                    3.1.3) requirements.
Probabilistic Risk Assessments        (PRAs)  address system risk contribution and identify systems which can be significant risk contributors to core damage and offsite releases.        Subcomponent risk contribution (in this case, the control rod drive housing support) is not addressed as the inoperability of the supported system (control rod drive system) and subsequent risk contribution is bounding.                                                                                                              .

The containment      and reactor vessel      isolation control    system (CRVICS) channels shown in Table 3.3.2-1 shall be OPERABLE, with their trip setpoints set consistent with the values shown in the Trip Setpoint column of Table 3.3.2-2 and with ISOLATION SYSTEM RESPONSE TIME as shown in Table 3.3.2-3.
Ambient Temperature Isolation Instrumentation and Differential Temperature Isolation Instrumentation.
Discussion:
The ambient temperature and differential temperature instruments proposed to be relocated are not assumed to function to mitigate any accident described in Chapters 6 or 15 of the Updated Safety Analysis Report.      These ambient and differential temperature instruments are provided only to detect and initiate isolation of a 25-gpm-equivalent steam leak.          However,  these instruments constitute only one method of determining steam leakage in their respective areas.      In addition to the temperature monitoring, excess reactor coolant leakage can be detected by low reactor water level, high process line flow, high differential flow, and various other plant specific methods.
4 Comparison to Screenina Criteria:
: 1. The Ambient Temperature and Differential Temperature Isolation Instruments are neither used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).
: 2. The Ambient Temperature and Differential Temperature Isolation Instruments are neither used for, nor capable of, monitoring a process variable that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analyses.
: 3. The Ambient Temperature and Differential Temperature Isolation Instruments are not used as parts of a primary success path in the mitigation of a DBA or transient. No pressure-temperature analyses,    radiation    dose  calculations,    or  equipment qualification parameters take credit for the operation of                        i these ambient or differential temperature instruments.              In addition, adequate redundancy is available to perform their functions by other methods.
Although the overall Isolation Instrumentation Function satisfies Criterion 3 of the NRC's Final Policy Statement on Technical Specification    Improvement,    these    ambient  temperature        and dif ferential temperature instruments are not assumed to function to mitigate any DBA or transient analyses.

3/4.3.6.2  APRM Discussion:
The control rod block instrumentation is provided to prevent a control rod withdrawal error at power transient. APRMs utilize LPRM signals to provide information about the average core power.
As such,    they are not capable of providing the local power information necessary to mitigate a control rod withdrawal error transient. Therefore, these instruments are not used to mitigate a design basis accident (DBA) or transient.
Comparison to Screenino Criteria:
: 1. The APRM control rod block is neither used for, nor capable of,  detecting a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a DBA.
: 2. The APRM control rod block instrumentation is not used to monitor a process variable that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analyses.
: 3. The APRM control rod block signal is not a part of a primary success path in the mitigation of a DBA or transient.
As discussed in Section 3.5 and summarized in Table 4-1 (item 135) of NEDO-31466, the loss of the APRM control rod block function was                  l found to be a non-significant risk contributor to core damage                      l frequency and offsite releases.

3/4.3.6.5  Scram Discharge Volume Discussion:
The control rod block instrumentation is provided to prevent a control rod withdrawal error at power transient. The purpose of measuring the scram discharge volume (SDV) water level is to ensure that there is sufficient volume remaining to contain the water discharged by the control rod drives during a scram, thus ensuring that the control rods will be able to insert fully. This rod block signal provides an indication to the operator that water is accumulating in the SDV and prevents further rod withdrawals. With                    >
continued water accumulation, a Reactor Protection System-initiated scram signal will occur. Thus, the SDV water level rod block signal provides an opportunity for the operator to take action to avoid a subsequent scram.      No design basis accident (DBA) or transient analysis takes credit for rod block signals initiated by the SDV instrumentation.                                                              l Comparison to Screenina Criteria:                                                      l

The Suppression Pool Makeup System (SPMS) Mode Switch Permissive shall be OPERABLE.
Discussion:
The SPMS Mode Switch Permissive Function is an operational function l    only and is not considered in any design basis accident (DBA) or I
transient analysis. In addition, this switch permissive function is  controlled under administrative controls to assure the appropriate position of the switch is maintained.
Comparison to Screenino Criteria:
: 1. The SPMS Mode Switch Permissive is neither used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal degradation of j          the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a DBA.
: 2. The SPMS Mode Switch Permissive is not used to monitor a process variable that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analyses.
: 3. The SPMS Mode Switch Permissive is not part of a primary success path in the mitigation of a DBA or transient.
 
== Conclusion:==
 
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the SPMS Mode                    ,
Switch Permissive Function may be relocated to other plant                              i controlled documents outside the Technical Specifications.

The structural integrity of ASME Code Class 1, 2 and 3 components shall be maintained in accordance with Specification 4.4.8.                          ;
Discussion:
The inspection programs for ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components ensure that the structural integrity of these components will be maintained throughout the component's life.          Other Technical Specifications require important systems to be OPERABLE (for example, ECCS 3/4.5.1) and in a ready state for mitigative action.                    .
This Technical Specification is more directed toward prevention of component degradation and continued long-term maintenance of acceptable structural conditions.      Hence, it is not necessary to retain this Specification to ensure immediate OPERABILITY of safety systems.
Comparison to Screenino Criteria:
: 1. The inspections stipulated by this Specification are neither used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal l          degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).
: 2. The inspections stipulated by this Specification do not                        !
monitor process variables that are initial assumptions in a DBA or transient analysis.
: 3. The ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components inspected per this Specification are assumed to function to mitigate a DBA.
Their capability to perform this function is addressed by                        ,
other Technical Specifications. This Technical Specification,                  i however, only specifies inspection requirements for these                        ;
components. Therefore, Criterion 3 is not satisfied.
As discussed in Section 3.5 and summarized in Table 4-1 (item 216) of NEDO-31466, the assurance of OPERABILITY of the entire system as verified in the system OPERABILITY Specification dominates the risk contribution of the system. The lack of a long-term assurance of structural integrity as stipulated by this Specification was found to be a non-significant risk contributor to core damage frequency and offsite releases.

All snubbers shall be OPERABLE.
Discussion:
Snubbers are included in the plant design to ensure that the structural integrity of the reactor coolant system and other safety related systems are maintained during and after a seismic or other dynamic loading event. The snubbers are considered a part of the piping system. They serve as an aid to prevent piping failure, but do not mitigate piping failure should it occur. Also, the failure of a snubber on a particular pipe cannot, by itself, cause the pipe to fail. Consequently, the snubbers do not meet any of the criteria, since they are not utilized as part of the primary                          +
success path in detecting or mitigating the consequences of a design basis accident (DBA) or transient event. Additionally, the surveillance and maintenance of the snubbers can be controlled by sources other than the plant Technical Specifications.

LCO Statement:                                                                          j Primary and backup containment penetration conductor overcurrent protective devices associated with each primary containment                              i electrical penetration circuit shall be OPERABLE.      The scope of                    i these protective devices excludes those circuits for which credible                    e fault currents would not exceed the electrical penetrations' design ratings.                                                                                1 Discussion:
The primary feature of these protective devices is to open the l                  control and/or power circuit whenever the load conditions exceed the preset current demands.        This is to protect the circuit conductors against damage or failure due to overcurrent heating effects.
The continuous monitoring of the operating status of the overcurrent protective devices is impracticable and not covered as part of the control room monitoring, except after trip condition                        ,
indication.
In the event of failure of this protective device to trip the i
circuit, the upstream protective device is expected to operate and l                  isolate the faulty circuit.      Thus, the upper level    (back-up) protection will protect the circuit conductors. In the worst-case fault condition, a single division of protective functions can be                      i lost. However, this scenario is covered under a single failure                    ;
criterion.
The overcurrent protective devices ensure the pressure integrity of the containment penetration. With failure of the device it is postulated that the wire insulation will degrade, resulting in a containment leak path during a LOCA.      However, the protection provided by these devices is not a process variable and is not                          l considered as part of the primary success path.          Containment                    l penetration degradation will be identified during the normal I                  containment leak rate tests required by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J.
Comparison to Screenino Criteria:
: 1. The containment penetration conductor overcurrent protective                      l devices are neither used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).
: 2. The containment penetration conductor overcurrent protective devices do not monitor a process variable that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analyses.

Enclosure I to U-602196 Pcge 60 of 65 3/4.8.4.2 MOTOR OPERATED VALVES THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION LCO Statement:
The thermal overload protection of each valve in safety systems with a bypass device (s) integral with the motor starter shall be bypassed continuously for those directions for which the valve performs an active safety function.
Discussion:
For valves with thermal overload protection (i.e. , trip on overload condition), the valve function should be accomplished prior to overload trip. The overload protection for these valves is meant to take precedence over the valve function.            If an overload condition occurs during valve operation, the electrical circuit will open to protect the equipment. In case of failure of overload                  l protection operation to disconnect the load, the equipment may suffer potential damage. This may impact the OPERABILITY of the system containing the valve.      Accordingly, the system LCO would address the overall system OPERABILITY, and not the OPERABILITY of a support system. Additionally, the surveillance and maintenance of the motor operated valves thermal overlo d protection can be controlled    by    sources  other  than    the  plant    Technical Specifications.
Comparison to Screening Criteria:
: 1. Motor operated valve thermal overload protection is neither used for, nor capable of, detecting a significant abnormal
        . degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).
: 2. Motor operated valve thermal overload protection does not monitor a process variable that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analyses,                                                        j
: 3. Actuation  of  a motor  operated valve's thermal overload                      j protection is not part of a primary success path in the mitigation of a DBA or transient. The supported system (e.g.,
ECCS) may be part of a success path and is then retained in the Technical Specifications. However, motor operated valve thermal overload protection retention in the Technical Specifications is not necessary as its function is confirmed in the OPERABILITY of the supported system.
Probabilistic Risk Assessments        (PRAs)  address  system    risk contribution and identify systems which can be significant risk contributors to core damage and offsite releases.          Subcomponent                  '

The restriction on movement of loads in excess of the nominal weight of a fuel assembly over other fuel assemblies in the storage pools ensures that in the event the load is dropped, the activity release will be limited to that contained in a single fuel assembly and any possible distortion of the fuel in the storage racks will not result in a critical array. Administrative monitoring of loads moving over the fuel storage racks serves as a backup to the crane interlocks.
Altbaugh this LCO supports the maximum refueling accident assumption in the DBA, these types of limitations are adequately controlled by administrative controls. Therefore, the criteria for Technical Specification retention are not satisfied.
Comparison to Screenino Criteria:
: 1. The crane travel load limits are neither used for, nor capable of,  detecting a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary prior to a design basis accident (DBA).                                                                    ,
i
: 2. The maximum severity assumed for the fuel handling DBA is                          l limited by the load limits placed on the crane travel. These crane travel limits are not, however, process variables monitored and controlled by the operator.          They may be interlocks and/or physical stops and are          addressed by administrative controls. Criterion 2 is thus not satisfied.
l
: 3. The crane travel load limits are not a structure, system, or                      i component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA.
Traditional Probabilistic Risk Assessments (PRAs) do not review risks associated with the spent fuel storage pool.
 
== Conclusion:==
 
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the Crane Travel-Spent Fuel Storage Pool, Upper Containment Fuel Pool, and New Fuel Storage Vault LCO and Surveillances may be relocated to other plant controlled documents outside the Technical Specifica-tions.

Discussion:
i The IFTS transfers fuel from the secondary containment                                  (fuel building) into primary containment (upper fuel pool).- The purpose                                            i of  the IFTS      Specification is to limit personnel access to                                                ;
potentially high-radiation areas of the system.                      This requirement                        !
is not an assumption of any design basis accident (DBA), but helps                                            '
to ensure that 10 CFR 20 limits are not exceeded.                                                            l Comoarison to Screenino Criteria:
: 1. The IFTS is neither used for, nor capable of, detecting a                                                  !
significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant                                                    1 pressure boundary prior to a DBA.                                                                          ;
1
: 2. The IFTS is not used to monitor a process variable that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analyses.
: 3. The IFTS is not part of a primary success path in the mitigation of a DBA or transient.
As discussed in Section 3.5 and summarized in Table 4-1 (item 294) of NEDO-31466, the IFTS was found to be a non-significant risk contributor to core damage frequency and offsite releases. IP has reviewed this evaluation, considers it . applicable to CPS, and concurs with the assessment.
