The PORVs are considered OPERABLE in either the manual or automatic mode. The PORVs (PV-455A and PV-456A) are powered from 125 V MCCs 1/2AD1M and 1/2BD1M, respectively. If either or both of these MCCs become inoperable, the affected PORV(s) are to be considered inoperable. By maintaining two PORVs and their associated block valves OPERABLE, the single failure criterion is satisfied. An OPERABLE PORV is required to be capable of manually opening and closing, and not experiencing excessive seat leakage. Excessive seat leakage, although not associated with a specific criteria, exists when conditions dictate closure of the block valve to limit leakage. An OPERABLE block valve may be either open and energized, or closed and energized with the capability to be opened, since the required safety function is accomplished by manual operation. Although typically open to allow PORV operation, the block valves may be OPERABLE when closed to isolate the flow path of an inoperable PORV that is capable of being manually cycled (e.g., as in the case of excessive PORV leakage). Similarly, isolation of an OPERABLE PORV does not render that PORV or block valve inoperable provided the relief function remains available with manual action. Satisfying the LCO helps minimize challenges to fission product barriers. The PORVs are required to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, and 3 for manual actuation to mitigate a steam generator tube rupture event, an inadvertent safety injection, and to achieve safety grade cold shutdown. In addition, the block valves are required to be OPERABLE to limit the potential for a small break LOCA through the flow path. The most likely cause for a PORV small break LOCA is a result of a pressure increase transient that causes the PORV to open. Imbalances in the energy output of the core and heat removal by the secondary system can cause the RCS pressure to increase to the PORV opening setpoint. The most rapid increases will occur at the higher operating power and pressure conditions of MODES 1 and 2. Pressure increases are less prominent in MODE 3 because the core input energy is reduced, but the RCS pressure is high. Therefore, the LCO is applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3. The LCO is not applicable in MODES 4, 5, and 6 with the reactor vessel head in place when both pressure and core energy are decreased and the pressure surges become much less significant. LCO 3.4.12 addresses the PORV ( continued) B 3.4.11-3 Rev. 1-2/00 BASES LCO APPLICABILITY Vogtle Units 1 and 2 Pressurizer PORVs B 3.4.11 The LCO requires the PORVs and their associated block valves to be OPERABLE for manual operation to mitigate the effects associated with an SGTR, or loss of heat sink, and to achieve safety grade cold shutdown.

ANSWER I DISTRACTOR ANALYSIS A. Correct. B. Incorrect. Plausible since AOP 18034-1 is entered for this malfunction and all the listed actions are taken except the DG is not emergency stopped. C. Incorrect. Plausible since the procedure entries are correct and the actions taken are ( correct except the methods used to stop the DG and control Tave. ( D. Incorrect. Plausible since misdiagnosis of a loss of only 120 V AC instrument power is a common mistake by operators due to the channel I bistable lights. Actions listed are correct, for the incorrect AOP entry. EOP entry also plausible since this is the expected response for power < P-10 setpoint. REFERENCES

EOP 19012-C, ES-1.2 Post LOCA Cooldown & Depressurization INTRODUCTION 19012-C, ES-1.2 POST LOCA COOLDOWN AND DEPRESSURIZATION, provides procedural guidance to cool down and depressurize the RCS to cold shutdown conditions following a loss of reactor coolant inventory. This procedure is structured to deal primarily with small LOCAs for those cases where safety injection flow can keep up with break flow, at pressures above the shutoff head pressure of the RHR pumps. In addition, if a LOCA occurs and the high pressure ECCS system fails, the procedure provides optimal recovery actions to try to prevent an inadequate core cooling condition while trying to restore ECCS flow. If the RWST level decreases to the switchover setpoint, a transition is made from 19012-C to 19013-C, ES 1.3 TRANSFER TO COLD LEG RECIRCULATION. This exit occurs as a result of a foldout page directive. The transition to 19013-C is only temporary. After the switch over is performed, a transition is made from 19013-C to return to the procedure in effect. After reaching and maintaining cold shutdown conditions (RCS temperature less than 200°F) the final step of 19012-C instructs the operators and plant engineering staff to evaluate the long term plant status. At this time, the RCS will be cooled by the RHR System or cold leg recirculation. If PRZR level could not be restored and maintained and boron precipitation is a concern, a decision to transfer to hot leg recirculation (19014-C, ES 1.4 TRANSFER TO HOT LEG RECIRCULATION) could be made. Other long term recovery actions can also be determined at this time. DESCRIPTION For a loss of RCS coolant to containment, Westinghouse plants are designed to use makeup water from the RWST until it is drained. Recirculation from the containment sump to the RCS is then used for long term cooling and makeup. The time to switch over to recirculation depends on the size of the RCS break, the RWST water volume, and whether containment spray is initiated. For some smaller breaks, it is possible to cool down and depressurize the RCS to a cold shutdown condition before the RWST is drained and recirculation becomes necessary. When doing this, it is important to maintain adequate core cooling by maintaining RCS inventory, while also trying to minimize RWST depletion. For any loss of RCS inventory, the RCS pressure will be dependent on the size of the break, the RCS fluid shrink due to cooldown, and the ECCS system capacity. For smaller breaks, the RCS pressure will remain stabilized for a long period of time at high RCS pressures (greater than 400 psig). For a one inch diameter break and RCS subcooling less than 100°F, Figure 2 shows that RCS pressure will stabilize 2 ( INTRODUCTION 19012-C, ES-1.2 POST LOCA COOLDOWN AND DEPRESSURIZATION, provides procedural guidance to cool down and depressurize the RCS to cold shutdown conditions following a loss of reactor coolant inventory.

For smaller breaks, the RCS pressure will remain stabilized for a long period of time at high RCS pressures (greater than 400 psig). For a one inch diameter break and RCS subcooling less than 100°F, Figure 2 shows that RCS pressure will stabilize 2 ( above 1300 psig where break flow matches ECCS flow from 2 CCP and 2 SI pumps. If no operator action is taken, transfer to cold leg recirculation may be necessary while RCS pressure remains high. 19012-C provides actions to reduce the RCS temperature and pressure to at or below 200°F and 400 psig, respectively. This is done by establishing a SG cooldown and selectively reducing ECCS flow by stopping SI pumps or establishing normal charging flow if minimum subcooling and PRZR level can be established. From there, the plant staff can determine how to completely depressurize the plant to stop RCS inventory loss and effect repairs. In 19010-C, E 1 LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT, or 19012-C, the RHR pumps are stopped if RCS pressure is higher than their shutoff head pressure (300 psig) and stable or increasing. The pressure versus RCS injection flow curves (without RHR) are shown in Figure 2. The ECCS reduction scheme assumed for the procedure consists of the following discrete head flow curves: 1 ) Two CCPs and two SI pumps 2) One CCP and two SI pumps 3) One CCP and one SI pumps 4) One CCP aligned through the BIT 5) One CCP aligned to full normal charging The ECCS reduction instructions are based on RCS subcooling and PRZR level criteria.

Instrument air to containment should be established in order to operate valves needed for the entire recovery procedure. If offsite power is not available, some non safeguards equipment should be loaded on the AC emergency busses. In addition, if RCS pressure is stable and higher than the shutoff head pressure of the RHR pumps, these pumps should be stopped. An explicit check ofSG levels is performed and is contained within the main cooldown loop in 19012-C. This ensures continuous monitoring for possible steam generator tube ruptures. After these actions and checks are performed, a cooldown to cold shutdown (200°F) is initiated. With continued cooldown, subsequent actions can be performed when specified RCS subcooling criteria are satisfied. Depressurize ReS to Refill PRZR This action is performed prior to RCP restart or before/after an ECCS reduction action. As RCS pressure decreases, RCS injection flow will increase relative to break flow. Consequently, this depressurization action should be sufficient for restoring PRZR level if the LOCA is small. A "small" LOCA is first ensured by requiring RCS subcooling before depressurization. If subcooling is lost during the depressurization, it should be restored as the cooldown continues. Prior to restoring PRZR level, all PRZR heaters are turned off. Start One Rep/Stop All But One Rep Once RCS subcooling, PRZR level, and other RCP support conditions are established, an RCP can be started if no RCPs are running. If more than one RCP are running, all but one are stopped to minimize RCS heat input. The RCP restarted (or left running) is used to provide normal PRZR spray and mix the RCS. Reduce ReS Injection Flow As RCS subcooling builds up to specified values, the CCP and SI pumps are stopped one at a time in a predetermined sequence. Subcooling criteria are specified such that a minimum RCS subcooling will be maintained after the injection flow is reduced. 4 ( ( MAJOR ACTIONS Prepare For and Initiate RCS Cooldown Certain actions should be performed before initiating an RCS cooldown.

1.0 PURPOSE

This procedure prescribes the method to record the failure to meet the Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO), or Technical Requirement, the associated ACTION requirements, any change in status effecting the ACTION, and the return to compliance with LCO/TR. This procedure also includes instructions for implementing Technical Specification 5.5.15, the Safety Function Determination Program. As required by LCO 3.0.6, this program ensures that proper actions are taken such that multiple inoperable Structures, Systems, or Components (SSC) do not result in an undetected LOSS OF SAFETY FUNCTION. This procedure also ensures that the allowed out of service time of SUPPORTED SYSTEMS is not inappropriately extended as a result of multiple inoperable SUPPORT SYSTEMS. 2.0 DEFINITIONS

2.1 LIMITING

CONDITION FOR OPERATION (LCO) A condition specified in the plant Technical Specifications (TS) or Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) which limits unit operations. An LCO may be entered by an equipment malfunction or a change in a unit parameter. If an LCO is not met, the associated ACTION requirements shall be met. 2.2 TECHNICAL REQUIREMENT (TR) A condition specified in the plant Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) which limits unit operations. A TR may be entered by an equipment malfunction or a change in a unit parameter. If a TR is not met, the associated ACTION requirements shall be met. TR and Technical Requirement Surveillances (TRS) associated with each TR are implemented in the same way as Technical Specifications. However, TRs and TRSs are treated as plant procedures and are not part of the Technical Specification. Therefore exceptions apply (Reference TRM Section 11.5).

PURPOSE: To depressurize the intact steam generators BASIS: Step depressurizes the intact SGs, thereby reducing RCS temperature and pressure to reduce RCP seal leakage and minimize RCS inventory loss. Steam generators should be depressurized to maximize delivery (into the RCS) of the water contained in the SI accumulators while minimizing delivery of nitrogen. Maintaining steam generator pressures above a value that prevents introduction of a significant volume of nitrogen into the RCS ensures that accumulator nitrogen will not impede natural circulation. A minimum steam generator pressure limit of 200 psig is set to preclude significant nitrogen injection into the RCS. Once depressurization is initiated, maintenance of a specified rate is not critical. The depressurization rate should be sufficiently fast to expeditiously reduce SG pressures, but not so fast that SG pressures cannot be controlled. It is important that the depressurization not reduce SG pressures in an uncontrolled manner that undershoots the pressure limit, thus permitting potential introduction of nitrogen from the accumulators into the RCS. During SG depressurization, SG level must be maintained above the top of the SG U-tubes in at least one SG. Maintaining the U-tubes covered in at least one SG will ensure that sufficient heat transfer capability exists to remove heat from the RCS via either natural circulation or reflux boiling after the RCS saturates. This step requires that SG level be in the narrow range in at least one SG before SG depressurization is initiated. If level is not in the narrow range in at least one SG, the RNO instructs the operator to maintain maximum AFW flow until range level is established in one SG. When narrow range level is established, SG depressurization can be started or continued via this step. During SG depressurization, AFW flow may have to be increased to maintain the required SG narrow range level. Full AFW flow should be established to any SG in which level drops out of the narrow range. SG narrow range level should be maintained greater than 10% (32% for adverse containment) in at least one intact SG. If level cannot be maintained, SG depressurization should be stopped until level is restored in at least one SG. To inform the operator of the importance of maintaining at least one intact SG narrow range level above the top of the U-tubes during depressurization BASIS: During the rapid depressurization performed in this step, SG level could drop out of the narrow range resulting in a loss of adequate heat sink. If this situation occurs, the depressurization should be stopped and AFW flow reestablished 1-27 ( LO-HO-37031-001-04-C: Loss Of All AC Power STEP: Depressurize intact SGs to 300 psig.

The station batteries supply the dc busses and the ac vital instrument busses. Since ac emergency power is not available to charge the station batteries, battery power supply must be conserved to permit monitoring and control of the plant until ac power can be restored. Attachment A was prepared to prioritize the shedding of dc loads in order to conserve and prolong the station battery power supply. The intent of load shedding is to remove all large non-essential loads as soon as practical, consistent with preventing damage to plant equipment. Consideration was also given to the priority of shedding additional loads in case ac power cannot be restored within the projected life of the station batteries. NOTE: The SGs should be depressurized at maximum rate to minimize RCS inventory loss. PURPOSE: To inform the operator of the desired rate for depressurization of steam generators BASIS: The intact steam generators should be depressurized as quickly as possible, to minimize RCS inventory loss, but within the constraint of controllability. Controllability is required to ensure that steam generator pressures do not undershoot the specified limit. For plants that can control the secondary depressurization from the control room, maximum rate means steam generator ARVs full open. For plants that must control the secondary depressurization by local actions (like Vogtle), maximum rate must be determined by the control room and local operators based on plant conditions and available communications. A slower rate is acceptable for locally controlled secondary depressurization. NOTE: PRZR level may be lost and reactor vessel upper head voiding may occur due to depressurization of SGs. Depressurization should not be stopped to prevent these occurrences. PURPOSE: To inform the operator of possible reactor vessel upper head voiding during steam generator depressurization BASIS: Loss of pressurizer level and reactor vessel upper head voiding may result from the rapid depressurization of the intact steam generators. Such a condition is anticipated and should not interfere with operator actions to depressurize the steam generators to reduce RCS pressure and temperature and to minimize RCS inventory loss out of the RCP seals. 1-26 ( LO-HO-37031-001-04-C: Loss Of All AC Power STEP: Check DC Bus Loads PURPOSE: To conserve dc power supply by shedding non-essential dc loads from the dc busses as soon as practical BASIS: Following loss of all ac power, the station batteries are the only source of electrical power.
