When not venting or purging in Modes 5 or 6, the alarm setpoint concentration (&#xb5;Ci/ml) shall be such that the actual submersion dose rate would not exceed 5 mR/hrwithout alarm. When not venting or purging in Modes 1through4, the alarm setpoint shall be no more than 3 limes the containment atmosphere activity as indicated by the radiation monitor. (b) For EMF-46A & B: The EMF monitor associated with the operating Component Cooling Water System train shall be FUNCTIONAL. This requirement is based on the existence of an interlock which blocks the EMF loss of flow alarm from being received in the control room when the associated train pump motor(s) are not running. (c) The setpoint is as required by the primary to secondary leak rate monitoring program. (d) Catawba's Spent Fuel Pools were originally licensed for compliance with 1 o CFR 70.24. The basis for the 15 mR/hr setpoint can be found in 10 CFR 70.24(a)(2) which states, in part," ... The monitoring devices in the system shall have a preset alarm point of not less than 5 millirems per hour (in order to avoid false alarms) nor more than 20 millirems per hour ... ." Although Catawba received exemption from 10 CFR 70.24 in 1997, the 15 mR/hr setpoint limit for detection of inadvertent criticality in the Spent Fuel Pool is still appropriate. Catawba is presently committed to compliance with 10 CFR 50.68 which requires, in part, "(6) Radiation monitors are provided in storage and associated handling areas when fuel Is present to detect excessive radiation levels and initiate appropriate safety actions." (e) Therefore, the setpoint may be elevated, using approved plant procedures, above 15 mR/hr during Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) Transportable Storage Container (TSC) transfer activities when the loaded TSC may generate dose rates in excess of 15 mR/hr at the detector location. The setpoint shall be returned to:: 15 mR/hr upon completion of the TSC transfer. The Component Cooling Water (CCW) radiation monitors are not considered to be non-functional just because there is no CCW flow through their respective trains. The EMFs would be considered non-functional if one of the inlet/outlet CCW isolation valves to the EMF were closed, if the EMF itself was not functioning properly, or if preventive maintenance/calibration activities were being performed on the EMF rendering it out of service. For the situation where the associated train related CCW pumps are not running and a section of the CCW System (e.g., CCW heat exchanger) has been isolated and drained such that the associated radiation monitor has no process fluid to monitor, grab samples are not required. Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.7-10-8 Revision 7 BASES REFERENCES Radiation Monitoring for Plant Operations 16.7-10 The FUNCTIONALITY of the radiation monitoring instrumentation for plant operations ensures that: (1) the associated action will be initiated when the radiation level monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its setpoint, (2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained, and (3) sufficient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance. The radiation monitors for plant operations senses radiation levels in selected plant systems and locations and determines whether or not predetermined limits are being exceeded. The radiation monitors send actuation signals to initiate alarms or automatic isolation action and actuation of emergency exhaust or ventilation systems. Some of the final actuations are dependent on plant condition in addition to the actuation signals from the radiation monitors. Operation of the Component Cooling Water (CCW) System Train A with the Train A Radiation Monitoring System (EMF) monitor non-functional and relying on the Train B EMF monitor for detection of radioactivity is not permissible. Likewise, operation of the CCW System Train B with the Train B EMF monitor non-functional and relying on the Train A EMF monitor for detection of radioactivity is not permissible. This is due to the interlock between the EMF monitor low-flow alarm and the operation of the CCW System pump motors on the same train. The EMF monitor in the operating CCW System pump train must be FUNCTIONAL, or the compensatory measures taken as specified. In MODES 5 and 6, initiation of the Containment Purge Exhaust System (CPES) with EMF-39 non-functional is not permissible. The basis for Required Action 8.1 is to allow the continued operation of the CPES with EMF-39 initially FUNCTIONAL. Continued operation of the CPES is contingent upon the ability of the affected unit to meet the requirements as noted in Required Action B.1. 1. Letter from NRC to Gary R.

Radiation Monitoring for Plant Operations 16.7-10 Table 16.7-10-1 Notes (a) When venting or purging from containment to the atmosphere, the trip setpoint shall not exceed the equivalent limits of SLC 16.11-6 in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM. When not venting or purging in Modes 5 or 6, the alarm setpoint concentration  
(&#xb5;Ci/ml) shall be such that the actual submersion dose rate would not exceed 5 mR/hrwithout alarm. When not venting or purging in Modes 1through4, the alarm setpoint shall be no more than 3 limes the containment atmosphere activity as indicated by the radiation monitor.  
(b) For EMF-46A & B: The EMF monitor associated with the operating Component Cooling Water System train shall be FUNCTIONAL.
This requirement is based on the existence of an interlock which blocks the EMF loss of flow alarm from being received in the control room when the associated train pump motor(s) are not running.  
(c) The setpoint is as required by the primary to secondary leak rate monitoring program.  
(d) Catawba's Spent Fuel Pools were originally licensed for compliance with 1 o CFR 70.24. The basis for the 15 mR/hr setpoint can be found in 10 CFR 70.24(a)(2) which states, in part," ... The monitoring devices in the system shall have a preset alarm point of not less than 5 millirems per hour (in order to avoid false alarms) nor more than 20 millirems per hour ... ." Although Catawba received exemption from 10 CFR 70.24 in 1997, the 15 mR/hr setpoint limit for detection of inadvertent criticality in the Spent Fuel Pool is still appropriate.
Catawba is presently committed to compliance with 10 CFR 50.68 which requires, in part, "(6) Radiation monitors are provided in storage and associated handling areas when fuel Is present to detect excessive radiation levels and initiate appropriate safety actions."  
(e) Therefore, the setpoint may be elevated, using approved plant procedures, above 15 mR/hr during Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) Transportable Storage Container (TSC) transfer activities when the loaded TSC may generate dose rates in excess of 15 mR/hr at the detector location.
The setpoint shall be returned to:: 15 mR/hr upon completion of the TSC transfer.
The Component Cooling Water (CCW) radiation monitors are not considered to be non-functional just because there is no CCW flow through their respective trains. The EMFs would be considered non-functional if one of the inlet/outlet CCW isolation valves to the EMF were closed, if the EMF itself was not functioning  
: properly, or if preventive maintenance/calibration activities were being performed on the EMF rendering it out of service.
For the situation where the associated train related CCW pumps are not running and a section of the CCW System (e.g., CCW heat exchanger) has been isolated and drained such that the associated radiation monitor has no process fluid to monitor, grab samples are not required.
Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.7-10-8 Revision 7
BASES REFERENCES Radiation Monitoring for Plant Operations 16.7-10 The FUNCTIONALITY of the radiation monitoring instrumentation for plant operations ensures that: (1) the associated action will be initiated when the radiation level monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its setpoint, (2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained, and (3) sufficient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance.
The radiation monitors for plant operations senses radiation levels in selected plant systems and locations and determines whether or not predetermined limits are being exceeded.
The radiation monitors send actuation signals to initiate alarms or automatic isolation action and actuation of emergency exhaust or ventilation systems.
Some of the final actuations are dependent on plant condition in addition to the actuation signals from the radiation monitors.
Operation of the Component Cooling Water (CCW) System Train A with the Train A Radiation Monitoring System (EMF) monitor non-functional and relying on the Train B EMF monitor for detection of radioactivity is not permissible.  
: Likewise, operation of the CCW System Train B with the Train B EMF monitor non-functional and relying on the Train A EMF monitor for detection of radioactivity is not permissible.
This is due to the interlock between the EMF monitor low-flow alarm and the operation of the CCW System pump motors on the same train. The EMF monitor in the operating CCW System pump train must be FUNCTIONAL, or the compensatory measures taken as specified.
In MODES 5 and 6, initiation of the Containment Purge Exhaust System (CPES) with EMF-39 non-functional is not permissible.
The basis for Required Action 8.1 is to allow the continued operation of the CPES with EMF-39 initially FUNCTIONAL.
Continued operation of the CPES is contingent upon the ability of the affected unit to meet the requirements as noted in Required Action B.1. 1. Letter from NRC to Gary R.

Radiation Monitoring for Plant Operations 16.7-10 Table 16.7-10-1 Notes (a) When venting or purging from containment to the atmosphere, the trip setpoint shall not exceed the equivalent limits of SLC 16.11-6 in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM. When not venting or purging in Modes 5 or 6, the alarm setpoint concentration

(µCi/ml) shall be such that the actual submersion dose rate would not exceed 5 mR/hrwithout alarm. When not venting or purging in Modes 1through4, the alarm setpoint shall be no more than 3 limes the containment atmosphere activity as indicated by the radiation monitor.

(b) For EMF-46A & B: The EMF monitor associated with the operating Component Cooling Water System train shall be FUNCTIONAL.

This requirement is based on the existence of an interlock which blocks the EMF loss of flow alarm from being received in the control room when the associated train pump motor(s) are not running.

(c) The setpoint is as required by the primary to secondary leak rate monitoring program.

(d) Catawba's Spent Fuel Pools were originally licensed for compliance with 1 o CFR 70.24. The basis for the 15 mR/hr setpoint can be found in 10 CFR 70.24(a)(2) which states, in part," ... The monitoring devices in the system shall have a preset alarm point of not less than 5 millirems per hour (in order to avoid false alarms) nor more than 20 millirems per hour ... ." Although Catawba received exemption from 10 CFR 70.24 in 1997, the 15 mR/hr setpoint limit for detection of inadvertent criticality in the Spent Fuel Pool is still appropriate.

Catawba is presently committed to compliance with 10 CFR 50.68 which requires, in part, "(6) Radiation monitors are provided in storage and associated handling areas when fuel Is present to detect excessive radiation levels and initiate appropriate safety actions."

(e) Therefore, the setpoint may be elevated, using approved plant procedures, above 15 mR/hr during Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) Transportable Storage Container (TSC) transfer activities when the loaded TSC may generate dose rates in excess of 15 mR/hr at the detector location.

The setpoint shall be returned to:: 15 mR/hr upon completion of the TSC transfer.

The Component Cooling Water (CCW) radiation monitors are not considered to be non-functional just because there is no CCW flow through their respective trains. The EMFs would be considered non-functional if one of the inlet/outlet CCW isolation valves to the EMF were closed, if the EMF itself was not functioning

properly, or if preventive maintenance/calibration activities were being performed on the EMF rendering it out of service.

For the situation where the associated train related CCW pumps are not running and a section of the CCW System (e.g., CCW heat exchanger) has been isolated and drained such that the associated radiation monitor has no process fluid to monitor, grab samples are not required.

Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.7-10-8 Revision 7

BASES REFERENCES Radiation Monitoring for Plant Operations 16.7-10 The FUNCTIONALITY of the radiation monitoring instrumentation for plant operations ensures that: (1) the associated action will be initiated when the radiation level monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its setpoint, (2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained, and (3) sufficient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance.

The radiation monitors for plant operations senses radiation levels in selected plant systems and locations and determines whether or not predetermined limits are being exceeded.

The radiation monitors send actuation signals to initiate alarms or automatic isolation action and actuation of emergency exhaust or ventilation systems.

Some of the final actuations are dependent on plant condition in addition to the actuation signals from the radiation monitors.

Operation of the Component Cooling Water (CCW) System Train A with the Train A Radiation Monitoring System (EMF) monitor non-functional and relying on the Train B EMF monitor for detection of radioactivity is not permissible.

Likewise, operation of the CCW System Train B with the Train B EMF monitor non-functional and relying on the Train A EMF monitor for detection of radioactivity is not permissible.

This is due to the interlock between the EMF monitor low-flow alarm and the operation of the CCW System pump motors on the same train. The EMF monitor in the operating CCW System pump train must be FUNCTIONAL, or the compensatory measures taken as specified.

In MODES 5 and 6, initiation of the Containment Purge Exhaust System (CPES) with EMF-39 non-functional is not permissible.

The basis for Required Action 8.1 is to allow the continued operation of the CPES with EMF-39 initially FUNCTIONAL.

Continued operation of the CPES is contingent upon the ability of the affected unit to meet the requirements as noted in Required Action B.1. 1. Letter from NRC to Gary R.
