Accordingly, we have revised the Turkey Point Unit Nos.3 and 4 lnservice Test Program to provide for testing certain safety injection valves at cold shutdown when the RCS is depressurized and vented and during each refueling outage.Attached are revised Safety Injection System Relief Request Bases Nos.3, 4 and 8.The attached pages supersede the same numbered pages included in our March 30, I 984 submittal.

Basis for Relief: Alternate Testing: IWV-3410 The failure of either of these valves in the open position, by testing during plant operation, would result in diverting flow from the reactor core in the event of a safety injection signal.These valves will be tested during cold shut'down, when the RCS is depressurized and vented and during each refueling outage.4.Valve: MOV-*-872 Category: A Class: 2 Function: Provides the alternate flow path from the Low Pressure Safety Injection System to the Reactor Coolant System.Test Requirements Basis for Relief: Alternate Testing: IWV-3410 The failure of this valve in the non-closed position, by testing during plant operation, rende'rs high pressure long term Safety Injection System recirculation unavailable.

This valve will be tested during cold shutdown, when the RCS is depressurized and vented and during each refueling outage.

Turkey Pcint Plant No.3 t 4 Page 4 of 13 RELIEF REEUEST BASIS SYSTEM: Safety Injection 7.Valve:*-876A,*-876C and*-876B Category: C Class: 1 Function: Prevents reverse flow from the Accumulator Safety Injection System and the High Pressure Safety Injection System to the Low Pressure Safety Injection System.Test Requirement:

Basis for Relief: Alternate Testing: IWV-3520 These valves cannot be tested during operation because the Low Pressure Safety Injection pumps do not develop sufficient discharge head to establish a flow path to the Reactor Coolant Systemo These valves will be tested during cold shutdowns.

8.Valve:*-876D and*-876E Category: AC Class: 1 Function: Prevents reverse flow from the Accumulator Safety Injection System and the High Pressure Safety Injection System to the Low Pressure Safety Injection System alternate flow path.Test Requirements Basis for Relief: Alternate Testing: IWV-3520 These valves cannot be tested during plant operation because the Low Pressure Safety Injection pumps do not develop sufficient discharge head to establish a flow path to the Reactor Coolant System.These valves will be tested during cold shutdown, when the RCS is depressurized and vented and during each refueling outage.
