The allowance to have containment penetration (including the airlock doors and equipment hatch) flow paths with direct access from the containment atmosphere to the outside atmosphere to be unisolated during fuel movement and CORE ALTERATIONS is based on (1) confirmatory dose calculations as approved by the NRC staff which indicate acceptable radiological consequences and (2) commitments from the licensee 10 implement acceptable administralive procedures that ensure in the event of a refueling accident that the airlock or equipment hatch can and will be promptly closea following containment evacuation (even though the containment fission product control function is not required to meet acceptable dose consequences) and that the open penetration(s) can and will be promptly closed. The time to close such penetrations or combination of penetrations shall be included in the confirmatory dose calculations.

Containment penetrations that provide direct access from containment atmosphere to outside atmosphere must be isolated.

-DELETED 3/4.9.6 REFUELING MACHINE -DELETED 3/4.9.7 CRANE TRAVEL -FUEL HANDLING BUILDING -DELETED 3/4.9.8 RESIDUAL HEAT REMOVAL AND COOLANT CIRCULATION The requirement that at least one residual heat removal (RHR) loop be in operation ensures that: (1) sufficient cooling capacity is available to remove decay heat and maintain the water in the reactor vessel below 140°F as required during the REFUELING MODE. and (2) sufficient coolant circulation is maintained through the core to minimize the effect of a boron dilution incident and prevent boron stratification.

The requirement to have two RHR loops OPERABLE when there is less than 23 feet of water above the reactor vessel flange ensures that a single failure of the operating RHR loop will not result in a complete loss of residual heat removal capability.

With the reactor vessel head removed and at least 23 feet of water above the reactor pressure vessel flange. a large heat sink is available for core cooling. Thus. in the event of a failure of the operating RHR loop. adequate time is provided to initiate emergency procedures to cool the core. The minimum RHR flow requirement is reduced to 900 gpm when the reactor water level is below the reactor vessel flange. The 900 gpm limit reduces the possibility of cavitation during operation of the RHR pumps and ensures sufficient mixing in the event of a MODE 6 boron dilution incident.

Friday, December 26, 2008 1 :06:52 PM 3 QUESTIONS REPORT for 2009A NRC SRO ONLY QUESTIONS REV1 Plausibility and Answer Analysis A Incorrect.

Pressurizer spray valves are the normal pressure control components and should be open but the RNO is to verify PORVs and block valves open. The function of the pressurizer control components is to prevent reaching the pressurizer safety setpoint however the background document is concerned about boration flow not the pressurizer safeties.

B Incorrect.

Pressurizer spray valves are the normal pressure control components and should be open but the RNO is to verify PORVs and block valves open. The background document is concerned about boration flow though. C Incorrect.

With pressurizer pressure above 2335 psig, the RNO is to verify PORVs and block valves open. The function of the pressurizer control components is to prevent reaching the pressurizer safety setpoint however the background document is concerned about boration flow, not the pressurizer safeties.

Ref for SRO #2, 029ES2.09 STEP DESCRIPTION TABLE FOR FR-S.l Step _4_ STEP: Initiate Emergency Boration of RCS PURPOSE: To add negative reactivity to bring the reactor core subcritical BASIS: After control rod trip and rod insertion functions, boration is the next most direct manner of adding negative reactivity to the core. The intended borati9n path here is the most direct one available, not requiring SI initiation, but using normal charging pump(s). Pump miniflow lines are assumed to be open to protect the pumps in the event of high RCS pressure.

Several plant specific means are usually available for rapid boration and should be specified here in order of preference.

Methods of rapid boration include emergency boration, injecting the BIT, and safety injection actuation.

It should be noted that SI actuation will trip the main feedwater pumps. If this is undesirable, the operator can manually align the system for safety injection.

However, the RWST valves to the suction of the SI pumps should be opened first before opening up the BIT valves. If a safety injection is already in progress but is having no effect on nuclear flux, then the BIT and . RWST are not performing their intended function, perhaps due to blockage or leakage. In this case some other alignment using the BATs and/or safeguards charging pump(s) is required.

The check on RCS pressure is intended to alert the operator to a condition which would reduce charging or SI pump injection into the RCS and, therefore, boration.

The PRZR PORV pressure setpoint is chosen as that pressure at which flow into the RCS is insufficient.

The contingent action is a rapid depressurization to a pressure which would allow increased injection flow. When primary pressure drops 200 psi below the PORV pressure setpoint, the PORVs should be closed. The operator must verify successful closure of the PORVs, closing the isolation valves, if necessary.

Friday, December 26, 2008 1 :06:52 PM 6 QUESTIONS REPORT for 2009A NRC SRO ONLY QUESTIONS REV1 Plausibility and Answer Analysis A Correct. Since EDG tripped due to a non-emergency trip then it should be tried first. The correct procedure implementation then would be to verify immediate actions of Path-1 and after those are complete transition per the Path into EPP-004. B Incorrect.

The EDG is the one that should be started since it is tripped due to a non-emergency trip, but the procedure directs "Return to Procedure and Step in Effect". While EPP-001 is a direct-entry procedure, the correqt transition at this point would be Path-1 to verify immediate actions. EPP-004 is the procedure that will ultimately be used, but actions of Path-1 must be verified first. C Incorrect.

'B' EDG has tripped due to an Emergency Trip and should not be started until problem is resolved.

Plausible if candidate fails to recognize

'B' has tripped on an Emergency Trip. Procedure transition is correct. o Incorrect.

'B' EDG has tripped due to an Emergency Trip and should not be started until problem is resolved.

  • This procedure contains no immediate actions.
  • The loss of Off-Site power may require the initiation of the Emergency Plan [C.1] 01. REFER TO PEP-11 0, Emergency Classification and Protective Action Recommendations, AND enter EAL Network at entry point X. [C.1] NOTE
  • If frequency drops suddenly and power is greater than P-7, the reactor will trip automatically when RCP frequency decreases to 57.5 Hz, resulting in a turbine trip.
  • Operation of electrical motors with voltage below the normal band will increase stator current and change torque loading. Component trips, insulation and/or bearing damage, shorts, grounds, or blown fuses may result. The probability of damage is increased with lowering voltage and increased operating time. [C.2] CAUTION
  • Operation of the unit between 59.0 and 58.4 Hz should be limited to 5 minutes, after which time the generator must be taken off-line.
  • Operation below 58.4 Hz is not allowed and the generator must be taken off-line immediately.
  • 2. CHECK Main Generator indications for ANY of the following conditions:

o

  • Generator frequency less than 59 Hz for greater than or equal to 5 minutes o
  • Generator frequency less than 58.4 Hz o
  • Turbine speed less than or equal to 1752 RPM o a. TRIP the Reactor, ANn IATj::J_1
02. GO TO Step 3.

AOP-028 I Rev. 25 I Page 4 of 19 Ref for SRO #6, 077AA2.10 GRID INSTABILITY-BASIS DOCUMENT Section 3.0-0perator Actions Step Description C2

  • Operation of the unit between 59.0 and 58.4 Hz should be 2 limited to 5 minutes, after which time the generator must be taken off-line.
  • Operation below 58.4 Hz is not allowed and the generator must be taken off-line immediately.

This caution alerts the operator to the consequences of operating equipment in an underfrequency condition.

Operation outside of established limits could cause high temperatures in the generator and possibly lead to insulation degradation and generator damage. This condition could also lead to damage of major electrical equipment when operating at lower speeds and higher currents.

I: Check Main Generator indications for ANY of the following conditions:

  • Generator frequency less than 59 Hz for greater than or equal to 5 minutes
  • Generator frequency less than 58.4 Hz
  • Turbine speed less than or equal to 1752 RPM a. Trip the Reactor and Go to EOP-Path-1.

RNO: Go to step 3. This continuous action step checks for indications of underfrequency that will require the generator to be taken off line quickly to protect the generator and major electrical equipment.

If any condition applies, frequency conditions require rapidly taking generator off-line.

The operator is directed to trip reactor and go to EOP-Path-1.

This will result in tripping the turbine and taking the generator off-line.

3 I: Check both emergency buses energized.

RNO: Refer to AOP-025, Loss of One Emergency AC Bus (6.9kV) or One Emergency DC Bus (125V). This is a continuous action step to monitor emergency buses during condition of grid instability.

Emergency buses are powered from the UAT when the generator is online during normal operation, or from the SUT during startup and shutdown.

Grid instability may result in loss of one or both emergency buses. AOP-025 addresses actions for loss of emergency buses.

Given the following plant conditions:

-The plant is operating at 100% power -A LOCA occurs -FRP-P.1, Response to Imminent Pressurized Thermal Shock, is in progress Thirty (30) minutes after the initiating event, the following conditions are observed:

-RCS pressure has lowered to 600 psig and is now stable -Tcolds have lowered to 220°F and are now stable -Containment pressure is 12.3 psig and slowly rising Which ONE of the following identifies requirements for this event in accordance with FRP-P.1? Soak Requirement Subsequent Cooldown Limit A'! Soak required B. Soak required C. Soak NOT required D. Soak NOT required (. Plausibility and Answer Analysis A Correct. The trend over the last 30 minutes would warrant implementation of procedural guidance to perform a 1 hr soak and subsquent cooldown limit of 50°Flhr. B Incorrect.

Plausible since a one hour soak is required but 1 OO°Flhr is not established in FRP-P.1. 1 OO°Flhr is the cooldown rate used in other EOPs (EPP-009, EPP-020, EPP-021).

C Incorrect.

Plausible since a soak is not always required in FRP-P.1 but with the existing cooldown in the last 30 min, a soak is required.

Subsquent cooldown limit of 50°Flhr is correct. o Incorrect.

Plausible since a soak is not always required in FRP-P.1 but with the existing cooldown in the last 30 min, a soak is required.

1 OO°Flhr is not established in FRP-P.1 but this is plausible since 1 OO°Flhr is the cooldown rate used in other EOPs (EPP-009, EPP-020, EPP-021).

Actions taken are in the incorrect order, plausible if candidate believes that SI can not be run in parallel with charging.

This is normally the case, but failure of a miniflow isolation is an exception to this to ensure the running ECCS equipment is not deadheaded.

Final goal is also incorrect, it is to maintain at least 60 gpm, not less than 60 gpm (common mistake).

B Incorrect.

Actions taken are in the incorrect order, plausible if candidate believes that SI can not be run in parallel with charging.

This is normally the case, but failure of a miniflow isolation is an exception to this to ensure the running EGGS equipment is not deadheaded.

C Correct. FCV is opened a minimal amount prior to isolating SI flow path in order to prevent deadheading a running CSIP. o Incorrect.

FCV is throttled to 30% open first to provide minimal flow and then goal is to establish and maintain A T LEAST 60 GPM flow. KIA statement

Friday, December 26, 2008 1 :06:54 PM 27 Ref for SRO #13, 039A2.02 RAPID DOWN POWER 1.0 PURPOSE This procedure provides guidance to lower Reactor power and Turbine load in a rapid fashion based on plant conditions or Tech Spec requirements while maintaining all plant parameters within necessary limits. This procedure can be used to lower power to a reduced output or take the plant to Turbine shutdown.

This procedure shall not be used for planned down powers. For planned down powers, Reactor Engineering should be contacted for a Reactivity Plan. 2.0 ENTRY CONDITIONS 2.1 Plant Conditions require a rapid reduction in power level to preclude a plant trip or in lieu of a plant trip. 2.2 The following are potential conditions (NOT a complete listing) that may require a rapid power reduction to maintain the plant in operation while recovery efforts are executed or take the plant to Turbine shutdown:

  • Impending loss of control fluids --Condenser vacuum abnormalities
  • Any condition that would require a complete power reduction in less than 60 minutes 2.3 Any condition requiring greater than 5 MW/min load reductions.

A. Notify Chemistry to sample ONLY the A-SA ESW Return Header; Activity may have entered the A train of ESW from CNMT B:' Notify Chemistry to sample BOTH A-SA and B-SB ESW Return Headers; Activity may have entered BOTH trains of ESW from CNMT C. Shut the ESW isolation valves to ONLY A-SA CNMT Fan Coolers; To prevent activity from entering the 'A' train of ESW from CNMT D. Shut the ESW isolation valves to BOTH A-SA and B-SB CNMT Fan Coolers; To prevent activity from entering any train of ESW from CNMT Plausibility and Answer Analysis A Incorrect Since 1 SW-116 is not shut sampling the A-SA header is required.

Chemistry would sample only the A-SA header if 'B' train ESW booster pump and orifice bypass isolation had operated properly.

B-SB booster pump did not start because of fault on 1 B2-SB bus. Basis is correct for sampling A-SA train. B Correct. Action and bases are correct due to no running Containment Spray pumps and the failure of both trains of ESW Booster pumps to operate properly.

C Incorrect.

This action would be correct if one or more Containment Spray pumps were running and the B-SB ESW Booster pumps had operated properly.

o Incorrect.

This action would be correct if one or more Containment Spray pumps were running. Since none are, the priority is to maintain the cooling to the fan coolers, despite the potential that activity may enter the lower pressure ESW system. ,------------------------

( c QUESTIONS REPORT for 2009A NRC SRO ONLY QUESTIONS REV1 Plausibility and Answer Analysis A Correct. An ORANGE path exists due to containment pressure greater than 10 psig with no CNMT Spray Pump running and FRP-J. 1 does not require the condition to be corrected prior to exit as other FRPs do (FRP-S.1, FRP-H.1).

B Incorrect.

An ORANGE path exists due to containment pressure greater than 10 psig with no CNMT Spray Pump running and FRP-J. 1 does not require the condition to be corrected prior to exit as other FRPs do (FRP-S.1, FRP-H.1).

C Incorrect.

Conditions are met for FRP-J.2 but this ORANGE path would only be evaluated if CNMT pressure was less than 10 psig. Additionally, FRP-J.2 also allows exit before the cause of the ORANGE path is corrected.

D Incorrect.

Conditions are met for FRP-J.2 but this ORANGE path would only be evaluated if CNMT pressure was less than 10 psig. Additionally, FRP-J.2 does not require the condition to be corrected prior to exit as other FRPs do (FRP-S. 1, FRP-H.1).

-FRP-H.1, Response to Loss of Secondary Heat Sink, is in progress -RCS Bleed and Feed has been initiated The following conditions exist: -Secondary Heat Sink has been established by restoring the TDAFW Pump -RCS Bleed and Feed is being terminated -1 RC-118, Pressurizer PORV (PCV-44SA-SA), cannot be closed Which ONE of the following identifies the correct procedure to be implemented?

A. Remain in FRP-H.1 Go to PATH-1 Entry Point C C. Return to Procedure and Step in effect D. Go to EPP-009, Post LOCA Cooldown and Depressurization . Plausibility and Answer Analysis A Incorrect.

This would be correct if the PORV Block Valve had power to be shut but the EDG tripped. B Correct. This is the appropriate response for the loss of coolant Inventory in progress.

C Incorrect.

Plausible since this would be correct if the heat sink had been restored PRIOR to starting bleed and feed. o Incorrect.

Plausible as EPP-009 will be the ultimate procedure required to address the SBLOCA in progress, but it will be entered from Path-1.

b. If configuration control will not be maintained by the Clearance, perform the following:

(1) The Superintendent

-Shift Operations shall approve not maintaining configuration control by the clearance.

This approval should be noted in the Special Instructions.

(2) The OP electrical/valve lineup or a System ElectricalNalve Lineup Checklist from OMM-001 should be used to document the restoration of all components within the Clearan"ce boundary.

This should be completed prior to restoring the Clearance.

When the restoration is complete, process the lineup per OMM-001. 12. The Tag Hanger or individual directing the removal of the Operations Clearance should have as a minimum the Clearance Checklist, or a copy, present during installation and removal of tags. 13. When boundary valves leak by their seat and a complete draining cannot be accomplished, the Unit SCQ and the Clearance Holder should determine when conditions are safe to perform the required maintenance.

14. If the Clearance involved draining a portion of a system, QMM-001, Refilling and Venting Systems After Draining section, should be referenced.

For filling and venting of an entire train or system, the applicable Operating Procedure should be referenced for instructions.

A (Comment) step wiUbe added to the clearance checklist for fill and vent steps. 15. If the component that was drained has a heater associated with the drained portion, the fill and vent must be performed prior to energizing the heater. 16. If applicable, specific Sections of procedures can also be specified to assist in removing the Operations Clearance in the correct order and/or verifying appropriate plant conditions exist before returning the equipment to service. If only a portion of a procedure is to be performed, the applicable steps should be clearly identified and the partial procedure performance accomplished per PRO-NGGC-0200.

The Unit SCO shall be fully cognizant of the procedure Steps to be performed and verify that plant conditions are appropriate.

17. All Limitorque 5MB-OO/SB-OO motor operated valves, if manually operated, are required to be stroked electrically from the control switch to be declared operable.

All of the applicable 5MB-OO/SB-OO valves are listed on Attachment

7. (Reference 2.4.8)

Ref for SRO #20, G2.2.13 4.1 Generic Information on Valve Manipulation (continued)

6. Pipe caps must be installed properly to ensure a leak tight barrier is established.

The following guidance is provided for installing pipe caps: a. Verify drain valves are fully shut and line is fully drained. b. The proper sealant should be used. (sealant is required for borated systems) CHE-NGGC-0045, can provide information as to the acceptability of the sealant being used. (Grafoil is an approved pipe thread tape for stainless steel pipes.) c. A pipe wrench should be used to install pipe caps. Pipe caps should not be left hand tight unless the cap is frequently removed. Pipe caps on borated systems should be fully tightened.

The use of tape is not required for frequently removed caps. d. If pipe or cap threads are found to be damaged, a work order should be intiated.

NOTE: Stem travel observation is not normally an acceptable method for verifying valve position.

Stem lengths vary and valves may not be totally open or shut. Valves with vendor supplied stem position indicators may be checked by observing these indicators.

If the operator suspects faulty operation of these indicators, the valve should be manually checked, and corrective action taken to restore the position indicator to an operable status. 7. If a valve cannot be positioned or checked because it appears stuck, inform the Unit SCQ before making further attempts to reposition the valve. In such cases, the position of the valve stem may have to be used to verify position of the valve. 8. All motor-operated valves will normally be operated by the respective motor. Motor-operated valves may be manually shut or back seated only with Unit SCQ permission or under emergency situations.

The following guidelines apply to operation of motor operated valves: a. A visual inspection will be performed before manually operating a motor operated valve. This inspection should look for damage to the motor operator and to the valve body. b. Power will normally be removed from the motor before local operation of the valve to prevent inadvertent actuation of the motor during manual operation.

( Ref for SRO #20, G2.2.13 4.1 Generic Information on Valve Manipulation (continued)

c. Place a caution tag on the valve(s) control switch(es) to denote that manual operation to shut or backseat a valve has occurred, and manual action should be taken to get a valve off its shut/open seat before operating with the motor. d. If the valve performs a safety related function, declare the valve inoperable unless determined that the manual operation has not affected operability.
e. No motor operated valve should be operated with a cheater bar, valve wrench or other device which increases the mechanical advantage.

The use of excessive force can cause catastrophic failure of valve components resulting in injury or death to the Operator.

f. Limitorque valves can not be operated in manual if the clutch key is in direct interference with manual operation lugs. This makes declutching impossible.

To eliminate the interference, the hand wheel wi" need to be rotated so that the clutch can be engaged. This problem is specifically related to 5MB-OO and 'SMB-OOO Limitorque operators but could include a" types of Limitorque valves. (reference NCR 87560) g. Motor operated valves that have been operated in manual should be operated from the control switch when power is restored.

(1) Refer to OMM-014 for 5MB-OO/SB-OO valves. The sp6C1fied valves in OMM-014 are to be declared inoperable until stroked from the control switch. (Reference CAP Item 95H0426) CAUTION The RAB Emergency Exhaust Vortex Dampers (Model NH94 Hydramotor) require that power not be removed from the hydramotor when operating manually.

The normally shut dump valve must have power to relieve hydraulic pressure.

9. A" hydramotor operated valves will normally be operated by the respective hydramotor.

Hydramotor operated valves may be manually operated only with Unit SCO permission or under emergency situations.

The following guidelines apply to operation of hydramotor operated valves: a. Turn off power to the hydramotor before operating the handwheel.

I PLP-702 Re-v.23 Ref for SRO #20, G2.2.13 9.2.1 Administrative (Cont.) [RI I OPS-NGGC-1301

19. Motor operated valves may be used as an isolation boundary point provided, after the valve has been positioned for the clearance, its power supply is isolated and tagged and the handwheel is tagged to indicate the valve position.

The valve should not be manually engaged to check position.

This will prevent inadvertent damage to the torque switch and/or valve seat, and prevents the drifting problem associated with some Limitorque operated valves. Since the valve position may not be available after the motor breaker is turned off, concurrent verification may be used to determine valve position before isolating the power supply. If the valve is determined to have seat leakage, it is permissible to manually engage the handwheel and torque the valve shut. Refer to site procedures for positioning and position verification associated with motor operated valves. 20. Conditions may exist such that it is not practical for a single Operations Clearance to cover the scope of planned work. It is permissible to use another Operations Clearance in conjunction with the original clearance to perform such work. When more than one Operations Clearance is used to allow work, the other clearance numbers should be listed on the Checklist Cross Reference screen for the existing clearance. . 21. If items are added to the Checklist Cross Reference, an entry should be made in the Clearance Order Special Instructions indicating the Checklist has cross references listed. Prior to making boundary changes, the Checklist Cross Reference Screen should be checked. Review of the Checklist Cross References is to ensure no other Clearance Order or Checklist is impacted by the change. The review should be completed by an SRO (CNO for CR3) prior to making any change to an established boundary.

(-3/4.8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS BASES Ref for SRO #21, G2.2.40 .3/4.8.1 0 3/4.8.2, AND 3/4.8.3 A.C. SOURCES. D.C. SOURCES, AND ONSITE POWER DIS I RIB r ION The OPERABILITY of the A.C. and O.C power sources and associated distribution systems during operation ensures that sufficient power will be available to suppLY the safety-related equipment required for: (1) the safe shutdown of the racility, ana (2) the mitigation and control of accident conditions within the facility.

The minimum specified independent and redundant A.C. and D.C. power sources and distribution systems satisfy the requirements of General Design Criterion 17 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. The switchyard is designed using a breaker-and-a-half scheme. The switchyard currently has seven connections with the CP&L transmission network: each of these transmission lines is physically independent.

The switchyard has one connection with each of the two Startup Auxiliary Transformers and each SAT can be fed directly from an associated offsite transmission line. The Startup Auxiliary Transformers are the p-referred power source for the Class IE ESF buses. The minimum alignment of offsite power sources will be maintained such that at least two physically independent offsite circuits are available.

The two physically independent circuits may consist of any two of the incoming transmission lines to the SATs (either through the switchyard or directly) and into the Class IE sy'stem. As long as there are at least two transmission lines in service ana two circuits through the SATs to the Class IE buses, the LCO is met. During MODES 5 and 6, the Class IE buses can be energized from the offsite transmission net work via a combination of the main transformers, and unit auxiliary transformers.

This arrangement may be used to satisfy the requirement of one physically independent circuit. The ACTION requirements specified for the levels of degradation of the power sources provide restrictioo upon continued facility .operation w;th the level of degradatlon.

The OPERABILITY or the power sources are consistent with the lnitial condition assumptions of the safety analyses and are based upon maintaining at least one redundant set of onsite A.C. and D.C. power sources and aSSOCiated distribution systems OPERABLE during aCCident conditions coincident with an assumed loss-of-offsite power and single failure of the other onsite A.C. source. The A.C. and D.C. source allowable out-of-service times are based on Regulatory Guide 1.93, "Availability of Electrical Power Sources," December 1974. There are additional ACTION requirements to verify that all required feature(s) that depend on the remaining OPERABLE A.C. sources as a source of emergency power, are also OPERABLE.

These requirements allow a period of time to restore any required feature discovered to be inoperable.

e.g. out-of-service for maintenance, to an OPERABLE status. If the required feature(s) cannot be restored to an OPERABLE status, the ACTION statement requires the redundant required feature, i.e. feature receiving power from an inoperable A.C. source. to be declared . inoperable.

The allowed operating times to restore an inoperable reguired feature to an OPERABLE status is based on the requirements in NUREG 1431. The term "verify".

as used in these ACTION statements means to administratively check by examining logs or other information to determine the OPERABILITY of requirea feature(s).

It does not mean to perform the Surveillance Requirement needed to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the required feature(s).

( ( QUESTIONS REPORT for 2009A NRC SRO ONLY QUESTIONS REV1 Plausibility and Answer Analysis From AOP-031 and AOP-031-BD A Incorrect.

Unnecessary personnel would be evacuated while others stored the fuel assembly if radiation level was less than 150 mRlhr AND offsite power was available, but offsite power has been lost. The reactor vessel is an approved storage location.

B Incorrect.

Unnecessary personnel would be evacuated while others stored the fuel assembly if both radiation level was less than 150 mRlhr AND offsite power was available, but offsite power has been lost. A SFP rack is an approved storage location.

C Correct. Offsite power has been lost and no method is available to store the fuel assembly so all personnel will be evacuated to minimize their exposure to this radiation level while no work can be performed.

D Incorrect.

All personnel would be evacuated if radiation level exceeded 150 mRlhr due to exposure, but that level has not been exceeded.

Other procedures (AOP-013) that are not in progress for this event do evacuate at 100 mRlhr. KIA statement

I: Contact Health Physics and inform them of the following (as known):

  • Existence of Refueling Cavity leak
  • Affected area(s)
  • Evacuated area(s)
  • Any elevated radiation levels Health Physics is responsible for controlling personnel access to CNMT, and for monitoring radiological conditions in order to maintain habitability from a radiological standpoint.

The operator is directed to provide them with the information needed to facilitate those functions.

I: Direct Health Physics to monitor radiatlor'llevers in CNMT areas where plant personnel are stationed.

Radiation levels need to be monitored in order to determine how long personnel can safely remain to perform activities related to event mitigation.

Health Physics has the capability of performing this function, and is assigned that responsibility.

I: CNMT Ventilation Isolation radiation monitors are set to alarm at less than or equal to 150 mR/hr for fuel movement.

This provides the operator with one method for detecting rising radiation levels without Health Physics assistance.

This initial surge of water into the core provides the initial cooling mechanism during large RCS pipe ruptures.

The limits on accumulator volume, boron concentration and pressure ensure that the assumptions used for accumulator injection in the safety analysis are met. The value of 66% indicated level ensures that a minimum of 7440 gallons is maintained in the accumulators.

The maximum indicated level of 96% ensures that an adequate volume exists for nitrogen pressurization.

The accumulator power operated isolation valves are considered to be "operating bypasses" in the context of IEEE Std. 279-1971, which requires that bypasses of a protective function be removed automatically whenever permissive conditions are not met. In addition, as these accumulator isolation valves fail to meet single failure criteria, removal of power to the valves is required.

The limits for operation with an accumulator inoperable for any reason except an isolation valve closed or boron concentration not within limits minimizes the time exposure of the plant to a LOCA event occurring concurrent with failure of an additional accumulator which may result in unacceptable peak cladding temperatures.

The boron in the accumulators contributes to the assumption that the combined ECeS water in the partially recovered core during the early refloodingphase of a large break LOeA is sufficient to keep that portion of the core subcritical.

One accumulator below the minimum boron concentration limit, however, will have no effect on the available EeCS water and an insignificant effect on core subcriticality during reflood. Boiling of ECCS water in the core during reflood concentrates boron in the saturated liquid that remains in the core. In addition, current analysis demonstrates that the accumulators do not discharge following a large steam line break for HNP. Therefore, 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> is permitted to return the boron concentration to within limits. If a closed isolation valve cannot be immediately opened, the full capability of one accumulator is not available and prompt action is required to place the reactor in a mode where this capability is not required.

3/4.5.2 AND 3/4.5.3 fCCS SUBSYSTEMS The OPERABILITY of two independent Eces subsystems ensures that sufficient emergency core cooling capability will be available in the event of a LOCA assuming the loss of one subsystem through any single failure consideration.

Either subsystem operating in conjunction with the accumulators is capable of supplying sufficient core cooling to limit the peak cladding temperatures within acceptable limits for all postulated break sizes ranging from the double ended break of the largest RCS cold leg pipe downward.

In addition, each EeCS subsystem provides long-term core cooling capability in the recirculation mode during the accident rec()very period. ------------------,------------------SHEARON HARRIS -UNIT 1 B 3/4 5-1 Amendment No. 86 Ref for SRO #25, G2.4.46 li4.5 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEMS ( BASES fees SUBSYSTEMS (Continuedl With the ReS temperature below 350°F, one OPERABLE ECCS subsystem is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the limited core cooling requirements.

The limitation for a maximum of one charging/safety injection pump to be OPERABLE and the Surveillance Requirement to verify one charging/safety injection pump OPERABLE below 325°F provides assurance that a mass addition pressure transient can be relieved by the operation of a single PORV.
