ATTACHt1ENT Re: Turkey Point Unit 3 5 4 Docket Nos.50-250, 50-251 Proposed License Amendment Containment Inte rit The proposed changes to the containment integrity specification to allow surveillance testing of PASS valves does not involve significant hazards considerations.

The change is similar to example vii, of the examples of amendments that are not considered likely to involve significant hazards considerations as published in the Federal Register on April 6, 1983.This change makes the Turkey Point license conform to current standard technical specifications for these items and the minor changes are clearly in keeping with the regulations.

Based on our review and the above examples, we have determined that this amendment does not involve any significant hazards considerations pursuant to 10 CFR 50.91 (c)in that the amendment does not: 1)involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or 2)create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or 3)involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.'8502050223 850i28 PDR ADOCK 05000250 P PDR Section TABLE OF CONTENTS Title TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Under the requirements of Specification 3.0.1, if both the required containment spray pumps are inoperable, within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, measures must be initiated to place the unit in at least HOT STANDBY within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, in at least HOT SHUTDOWN within the following 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, and in COLD SHUTDOWN within the subsequent 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br />.It is acceptable to initiate and complete a reduction in OPERATIONAL MODES in a shorter time interval than required in the ACTION statement and to add the unused portion of this allowable out-of-service time to that provided for operation in subsequent lower OPERATION MODE(S).Stated allowable out-of-service times are applicable regardless of the'OPERATIONAL MODE(S)in which the inoperability is discovered but the times provided for achieving a mode reduction are not applicable if the inoperability is discovered in a mode lower than the applicable mode.For example, if one containment spray pump was discovered to be inoperable while in STARTUP, the ACTION Statement would allow up to 109 hours0.00126 days <br />0.0303 hours <br />1.802249e-4 weeks <br />4.14745e-5 months <br /> to achieve COLD SHUTDOWN.If HOT STANDBY is attained in 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> rather than the allowed 31 hours3.587963e-4 days <br />0.00861 hours <br />5.125661e-5 weeks <br />1.17955e-5 months <br />, 93 hours0.00108 days <br />0.0258 hours <br />1.537698e-4 weeks <br />3.53865e-5 months <br /> would still be available before the plant would be required to be in COLD SHUTDOWN.However, if this system was discovered to be inoperable while in HOT STANDBY, the 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> provided to achieve HOT STANDBY would not be additive to the time available to achieve COLD SHUTDOWN so that the total allowable time is reduced from 109 hours0.00126 days <br />0.0303 hours <br />1.802249e-4 weeks <br />4.14745e-5 months <br /> to 103 hours0.00119 days <br />0.0286 hours <br />1.703042e-4 weeks <br />3.91915e-5 months <br />.83.0.2 This specification defines'those conditions necessary to constitute compliance with the terms of an individual Limiting Condition for Operation and associated ACTION requirements..

83.0.3 This soecification defines the applicability of each specification in terms of defined OPERATIONAL MODES o'r other specified conditions and is provided to delineate specifically when each specification is applicable.

83.0.0 This specification provides that entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability condition must be made with: (1)the full complement of required systems, equipment, or components OPERABLE and (2)all other parameters as specified in the Limiting Conditions for Operation being met without regard for allowable deviations and out-of-service provisions contained in the ACTION statements.

The intent of this"provision is to ensure that facility operation is not initiated with either required equipment or systems inoperable or other specified limits being exceeded.Exceptions to this provision have been provided for a limited number of specifications when startup with inoperable equipment would not affect plant safety.These exceptions are stated in the ACTION statements of the appropriate specifications.

83.0-1 Amendment Nos.and This specification delineates what additional conditions must be satisfied to permit operation to continue, consistent with the ACTION statements for power sources, when a normal or emergency power source is not OPERABLE.It specifically prohibits operation when one division is inoperable because its normal or emergency power source is inoperable and a system, subsystem, train, component or device in another division is inoperable for another reason.The provisions of this specification permit the ACTION statements'ssociated with individual systems, subsystems, trains, components or devices to be consistent with the ACTION statements of the associated electrical power source.It allows operation" to be governed by the time limits of the ACTION statement associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation for the no'imal or emergency power source, not the individual ACTION statements for each system, subsystem, train, component or device that is determined to be inoperable solely because of the inoperability of its normal or emergency power source.For example, Specification 3.7.1 requires in part that two emergency diesel generators be OPERABLE.The ACTION statement provides for an out-of-service time when one emergency diesel generator is not OPERABLE.If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification 3.0.5q all systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices supplied by the inoperable emergency power source would also be inoperable.

This would dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicable Limiting Conditions for Operation.

However, the provisions of Specification 3.0.5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable emergency diesel generator instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied.

In this case, this would mean that the corresponding normal power source must be OPERABLE, and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices must be OPERABLE, or otherwise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i.e., be capable of performing their design function and have at least one normal or one emergency power source OPERABLE).

If they are not satisfied, shutdown is.required in accordance with this specification.

In cold shutdown or refueling condition, Specification 3.0.5 is not applicable, and thus the individual ACTION statements for each applicable Limiting Condition for Operation in these conditions must be adhered to.13.0-2 Amendment Nos.and B3.3 BASES-CONTAINMENT 8.3.3.1 CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY B3.3.2 Primary CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY ensures that the release of radioactive materials from the containment atmosphere will be restricted to those leakage paths and associated leak rates assumed in the safety analyses.This restriction, in conjunction with the leakage rate limitation, will limit the SITE BOUNDARY radiation doses to within the dose guideline values of 10 CFR Part 100 during the accident conditions.

INTERNAL PRESSURE The containment design pressure of 59 psig would not be exceeded if the internal pressure before a major LOCA was as much as 5 psig.The containment is designed to withstand an internal vacuum of 2.5 psig.B3.3.3 CONTAINMENT ISOLATION VALVES The OPERABILITY of the containment isolation valves ensures that the containment atmosphere will be isolated from the outside environment in the event of a release of radioactive material to the containment atmosphere or pressurization of the containment.

Containment isolation within the time limits specified for those isolation valves designed to close automatically ensures that the release of radioactive material to the environment will be consistent with the assumptions used in the analyses.for a LOCA.B3.3.0 CONTAINMENT AIR LOCKS The limitations on closure and leak rate for the containment air locks are required to met the restrictions on CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY and containment leak rate.Surveillance testing of the air lock seals provides assurance that the overall air lock leakage will not become excessive due to seal damage during the intervals between air lock leakage tests.B3.3-1 Amendment Nos.and C~~B3.10 BASES-REFUELING OPERATIONS B3.10.1 CONTAINMENT BUILDING PENETRATIONS The requirements on containment building penetration closure and OPERABILITY ensure that a release of radioactive material within containment will be restricted from leakage to the environment.

The OPERABILITY and closure restrictions are sufficient to restrict radioactive material release from a fuel element rupture based upon the lack of containment pressurization potential while in the REFUELING MODE.B3.10.2 CONTAINMENT VENTILATION ISOLATION SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of this system ensures that the containment vent and purge penetrations will be automatically isolated upon detection of high radiation levels within the containment.

The OPERABILITY of this system is required to restrict the release of radioactive material from the containment atmosphere to the environment.

B3.10.3 INSTRUMENTATION The OPERABILITY of the Source Range Neutron Flux Monitors ensures that redundant monitoring capability is available to detect changes in the reactivity condition of the core.B3.10.0 RADIATION MONITORING The Operability of the containment radiation monitors ensures continuous monitoring of radiation levels to provide immediate indication of an unsaf e condition.

'3.10.5 DECAY TIME The minimum requirement for reactor subcriticality prior to movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the reactor vessel ensures that sufficient time has lapsed to allow the radiation decay of the short-lived fission products.This decay time is consistent with the assumptions used in the safety analyses.B3.10.6 COMMUNICATIONS

~The requirements for communications capability ensures that refueling station personnel can be promptly informed of significant changes in the facility status or core reactivity conditions during CORE ALTERATIONS.

B3.10-1 Amendment Nos.and B3.10.7 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 100oF 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.B3.10.8 BORON CONCENTRATION The limitations on reactivity conditions during REFUELING ensure that: (1)the reactor will remain subcritical during CORE ALTERATIONS, and (2)a boron concentration is maintained for reactivity control in the water volume having direct access to the reactor vessel.These limitations are consistent with the initial conditions assumed for the boron dilution incident in the safety analyses.The boron concentration value of 1950 ppm was sufficient to maintain the reactor subcritical by at least 10%hk/k in the cold condition with all rods inserted, and also maintained)he core subcritical with no control rods inserted, for the first core design.<>>

The required boron concentration may increase depending on the subsequent core designs.83.10.9 CRANE TRAVEL-SPENT FUEL STORAGE AREAS The restriction on movement of HEAVY LOADS over other fuel assemblies+

in the storage pool ensures that in the event this load is dropped: (1)the activity release will be limited to that contained in a single fuel assembly, and (2)any possible distortion of fuel in the storage racks will not result in a critical array.This assumption is consistent with the activity release assumed in the safety analyses.+Exception may be taken for the temporary construction crane to be used for the re-rack operation which may be carried over irradiated fuel to facilitate installation of the crane.Lift rigs which meet the design and operational requirements of NUREG 0612"Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants" will be used while performing this installation.
