1.0 INTRODUCTION

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, Florida Power and Light Company (FPL) requests to amend Facility Operating Licenses DPR-31 and DPR-41 for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4. This proposed license amendment request (LAR) revises the requirements in the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Technical Specification (TS) related to steam generator tube integrity and Reactor Coolant System Operational Leakage. The change is consistent with the NRC approved Revision 4 to industry/Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Standard Technical Specification Change Traveler, TSTF-449, "Steam Generator Tube Integrity." The availability of this TS improvement was announced in the Federal Register on May 6, 2005 (70 FR 24126) as part of the consolidated line item improvement process (CLIIP).

2.0 DESCRIPTION

OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT Consistent with the NRC-approved Revision 4 of TSTF-449, the proposed changes:* Revise the TS definitions of Identified Leakage (1.16) and Pressure Boundary Leakage (1.20).* Revise TS 3/4.3.3, "Monitoring Instrumentation".

Replace the existing TS 3/4.4.5, "Steam Generators," requirements with the new "Steam Generator Tube Integrity" requirements.

Revise TS 3/4.4.6, "Reactor Coolant System Leakage."* Add new TS 6.8.4j, "Steam Generator Program."* Add new TS 6.9.1.8, "Steam Generator Tube Inspection Report." Proposed revisions to the TS Bases are also included with this LAR. As discussed in the NRC's model safety evaluation, adoption of the revised TS Bases associated with TSTF-449, Rev. 4 is an integral part of implementing this TS improvement.

Departure from the wording proposed in the TS Bases associated with TSTF-449, Rev. 4 is taken only when necessary to maintain consistency with the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 licensing basis. The changes to the affected TS Bases pages will be incorporated in accordance with the TS Bases Control Program.

3.0 BACKGROUND

The background for this LAR is adequately addressed by the NRC Notice of Availability published on May 6, 2005 (70 FR 24126), the NRC Notice for Comment published on March 2, 2005 (70 FR 10298), and TSTF-449, Revision 4.The table below provides a summary of the proposed changes. It also identifies the Improved Standard Technical Specifications (ITS) sections based on TSTF-449, Rev. 4 and the corresponding sections in the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 TS.

Enclosure I to L-2006-074 10 CFR 50.90 Page 7 of 8 7.0 NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION FPL has reviewed the no significant hazards consideration determination published on March 2, 2005 (70 FR 10298) as part of the CLIIP. FPL has concluded that the proposed determination presented in the notice is applicable to Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 considering the differences described in Section 9.0 below. Therefore, the determination is hereby incorporated by reference to satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR 50.91(a).8.0 ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION FPL has reviewed the environmental evaluation included in the model SE published on March 2, 2005 (70 FR 10298) as part of the CLIIP. FPL has concluded that the NRC staff's findings presented in that evaluation are applicable to Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 and the evaluation is hereby incorporated by reference for this application.

9.0 PRECEDENT

This application is being made in accordance with the CLIIP. FPL is not proposing variations or deviations from the TS changes described in TSTF-449, Revision 4, or the NRC staff's model SE published on March 2, 2005 (70 FR 10298). The following differences from the TS changes described in TSTF-449, Revision 4 are necessary due to the non-standard format of the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 TS: 1. The current format and terminology used in the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 TS is retained to maintain consistency with the current specifications.

For example:* The general format and numbering convention associated with the current TS for Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs), Actions, Surveillance Requirements (SRs) and Notes is retained.* Terminology used in the current TS Actions is maintained.

For example, HOT STANDBY, HOT SHUTDOWN and COLD SHUTDOWN are used in lieu of MODE 3, MODE 4 and MODE 5, respectively.

2. RCS Operational Leakage Water Inventory Balance requirement contained in TSTF-449, Rev. 4, SR 3.4.13.1, is performed at a frequency of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months whereas the current frequency specified in Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 TS 4.4.6.2.1c requires this to be performed at least once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months , and not to exceed 48 hours5.555556e-4 days 0.0133 hours 7.936508e-5 weeks 1.8264e-5 months between any two successive inventory balances.

This requirement is retained except that the frequency is reduced to once every 72 hours8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months and the 48 hour5.555556e-4 days 0.0133 hours 7.936508e-5 weeks 1.8264e-5 months limitation between any two successive inventory balances is eliminated.

This change maintains consistency with TSTF-449, Rev. 4, ITS SR 3.4.13.1 and is acceptable because a 72-hour frequency is a reasonable interval to trend leakage and provide early indications of gradual RCS deterioration.

The 72-hour frequency also provides conformance with the primary-to-secondary monitoring and trending frequency of the changes herein for Turkey Point TS 4.4.6.2.1e and TSTF-449, Rev. 4, ITS SR 3.4.13.2.

Furthermore, the inventory balance verification is not used for the prompt identification of rapid changes in RCS leakage rates. Other methods are available to the operators to provide prompt Enclosure 1 to L-2006-074 10 CFR 50.90 Page 8 of 8 indication of any significant increases in RCS leakage, including the RCS leakage detection instrumentation required by TS LCO 3.3.3.1 (Radiation Monitoring) and LCO 3.4.6.1 (Leakage Detection Systems).

Therefore, reducing the frequency for evaluating RCS leakage using an inventory balance will not affect the timely identification and response to RCS leakage that is indicative of significant RCS pressure boundary deterioration.

Accordingly, this change will have no significant adverse impact on safety.3. Necessary conforming changes regarding the proper timing and conditions for performing the RCS water inventory balance were made to Specifications 3.3.3.1 and 3.4.6.1.

In addition, the Steam Generator Program shall include the following provisions:

a. Provisions for condition monitoring assessments.

Condition monitoring assessment means an evaluation of the "as found" condition of the tubing with respect to the performance criteria for structural integrity and accident induced leakage. The "as found" condition refers to the condition of the tubing during an SG inspection outage, as determined from the inservice inspection results or by other means, prior to the plugging of tubes.Condition monitoring assessments shall be conducted during each outage during which the SG tubes are inspected or plugged to confirm that the performance criteria are being met.b. Performance criteria for SG tube integrity.

SG tube integrity shall be maintained by meeting the performance criteria for tube structural integrity, accident induced leakage, and operational leakage.1. Structural integrity performance criterion:

All in-service SG tubes shall retain structural integrity over the full range of normal operating conditions (including startup, operation in the power range, hot standby, and cooldown and all anticipated transients included in the design specification) and design basis accidents.

This includes retaining a safety factor of 3.0 against burst under normal steady state full power operation primary-to-secondary pressure differential and a safety factor of 1.4 against burst applied to the design basis accident primary-to-secondary pressure differentials.

Apart from the above requirements, additional loading conditions associated with the design basis accidents, or combination of accidents in accordance with the design and licensing basis, shall also be evaluated to determine if the associated loads contribute significantly to burst or collapse.

In the assessment of tube integrity, those loads that do significantly affect burst or collapse shall be determined and assessed in combination with the loads due to pressure with a safety factor of 1.2 on the combined primary loads and 1.0 on axial secondary loads.2. Accident induced leakage performance criterion:

The primary-to-secondary accident induced leakage rate for any design basis accident, other than SG tube rupture, shall not exceed the leakage rate assumed in the accident analysis in terms of total leakage rate for all SGs and leakage rate for an individual SG. Leakage is not to exceed I gpm total through all SGs and 500 gallons per day through any one SG.

L-2006-074 Enclosure 2, TS Mark up and Inserts Page 20 of 22 3. The operational leakage performance criterion is specified in LCO 3.4.6.2, "Reactor Coolant System Operational Leakage." c. Provisions for SG tube repair criteria.

Tubes found by inservice inspection to contain flaws with a depth equal to or exceeding 40% of the nominal tube wall thickness shall be plugged.d. Provisions for SG tube inspections.

Periodic SG tube inspections shall be performed.

The number and portions of the tubes inspected and methods of inspection shall be performed with the objective of detecting flaws of any type (e.g., volumetric flaws, axial and circumferential cracks) that may be present along the length of the tube, from the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet to the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet, and that may satisfy the applicable tube repair criteria.

The tube-to-tubesheet weld is not part of the tube. In addition to meeting the requirements of d. 1, d.2, and d.3 below, the inspection scope, inspection methods, and inspection intervals shall be such as to ensure that SG tube integrity is maintained until the next SG inspection.

An assessment of degradation shall be performed to determine the type and location of flaws to which the tube may be susceptible and, based on this assessment, to determine which inspection methods need to be employed and at what locations.

1. Inspect 100% of the tubes in each SG during the first refueling outage following SG replacement.

2. Inspect 100% of the tubes at sequential periods of 120, 90, and, thereafter, 60 effective full power months. The first sequential period shall be considered to begin after the first inservice inspection of the SGs. In addition, inspect 50% of the tubes by the refueling outage nearest the midpoint of the period and the remaining 50% by the refueling outages nearest the end of the period. No SG shall operate for more than 48 effective full power months or two refueling outages (whichever is less) without being inspected.

3. If crack indications are found in any SG tube, then the next inspection for each SG for the degradation mechanism that caused the crack indication shall not exceed 24 effective full power months or one refueling outage (whichever is less). If definitive information, such as from examination of a pulled tube, diagnostic non-destructive testing, or engineering evaluation indicates that a crack-like indication is not associated with a crack(s), then the indication need not be treated as a crack.e.

In addition, the Steam Generator Program shall include the following provisions:

a. Provisions for condition monitoring assessments.

Condition monitoring assessment means an evaluation of the Was found" condition of the tubing with respect to the performance criteria for structural integrity and accident induced leakage. The 'as found" condition refers to the condition of the tubing during an SG inspection outage, as determined from the inservice inspection results or by other means, prior to the plugging of tubes. Condition monitoring assessments shall be conducted during each outage during which the SG tubes are inspected or plugged to confirm that the performance criteria are being met.TURKEY POINT -UNITS 3 & 4 6-18 AMENDMENT NOS. AND Enclosure 3 to L-2006-074 10 CFR 50.90 Page 18 of 21 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS PROCEDURES AND PROGRAMS (Continued)

b. Performance criteria for SG tube integrity.

SG tube integrity shall be maintained by meeting the performance criteria for tube structural integrity, accident induced leakage, and operational leakage.1. Structural integrity performance criterion:

All in-service SG tubes shall retain structural integrity over the full range of normal operating conditions (including startup, operation in the power range, hot standby, and cooldown and all anticipated transients included in the design specification) and design basis accidents.

This includes retaining a safety factor of 3.0 against burst under normal steady state full power operation primary-to-secondary pressure differential and a safety factor of 1.4 against burst applied to the design basis accident primary-to-secondary pressure differentials.

Apart from the above requirements, additional loading conditions associated with the design basis accidents, or combination of accidents in accordance with the design and licensing basis, shall also be evaluated to determine if the associated loads contribute significantly to burst or collapse.

In the assessment of tube integrity, those loads that do significantly affect burst or collapse shall be determined and assessed in combination with the loads due to pressure with a safety factor of 1.2 on the combined primary loads and 1.0 on axial secondary loads.2. Accident induced leakage performance criterion:

The primary-to-secondary accident induced leakage rate for any design basis accident, other than SG tube rupture, shall not exceed the leakage rate assumed in the accident analysis in terms of total leakage rate for all SGs and leakage rate for an individual SG.Leakage is not to exceed 1 gpm total through all SGs and 500 gallons per day through any one SG.3. The operational leakage performance criterion is specified in LCO 3.4.6.2,"Reactor Coolant System Operational Leakage.'c. Provisions for SG tube repair criteria.

Tubes found by inservice inspection to contain flaws with a depth equal to or exceeding 40% of the nominal tube wall thickness shall be plugged.d. Provisions for SG tube inspections.

Periodic SG tube inspections shall be performed.

The number and portions of the tubes inspected and methods of inspection shall be performed with the objective of detecting flaws of any type (e.g., volumetric flaws, axial and circumferential cracks) that may be present along the length of the tube, from the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet to the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet, and that may satisfy the applicable tube repair criteria.

The tube-to-tubesheet weld is not part of the tube. In addition to meeting the requirements of d.1, d.2, and d.3 below, the inspection scope, inspection methods, and inspection intervals shall be such as to ensure that SG tube integrity is maintained until the next SG inspection.

An assessment of degradation shall be performed to determine the type and location of flaws to which the tube may be susceptible and, based on this assessment, to determine which inspection methods need to be employed and at what locations.

1. Inspect 100% of the tubes in each SG during the first refueling outage following SG replacement.

TURKEY POINT -UNITS 3 & 4 6-1 8a AMENDMENT NOS. AND Enclosure 3 to L-2006-074 10 CFR 50.90 Page 19 of 21 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS PROCEDURES AND PROGRAMS (Continued)

2. Inspect 100% of the tubes at sequential periods of 120, 90, and, thereafter, 60 effective full power months. The first sequential period shall be considered to begin after the first inservice inspection of the SGs. In addition, inspect 50% of the tubes by the refueling outage nearest the midpoint of the period and the remaining 50% by the refueling outages nearest the end of the period. No SG shall operate for more than 48 effective full power months or two refueling outages (whichever is less) without being inspected.

3. If crack indications are found in any SG tube, then the next inspection for each SG for the degradation mechanism that caused the crack indication shall not exceed 24 effective full power months or one refueling outage (whichever is less). If definitive information, such as from examination of a pulled tube, diagnostic non-destructive testing, or engineering evaluation indicates that a crack-like indication is not associated with a crack(s), then the indication need not be treated as a crack.e. Provisions for monitoring operational primary-to-secondary leakage.6.8.5 Administrative procedures shall be developed and implemented to limit the working hours of plant staff who perform safety-related functions, e.g. licensed Senior Operators, licensed Operators, health physicists, auxiliary operators, and key maintenance personnel.

The procedures shall include guidelines on working hours that ensure that adequate shift coverage is maintained without routine heavy use of overtime for individuals.

The program for inservice inspectio f steam generato bes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1. Inservice spection of steam gener r tubing is essential in order to maintain surveillance of the conditions owe tubes in the event that the is evidence of mechanical damage or progressive degradat due to design, manufacturing err or inservice conditions that lead to corrosion.

Inserv inspection of steam generator tubing also prvides a means of characterizing the nature and cause any tube degradation so that corrective measures c be taken.The plant is expected to be ope d in a manner such that the s ndary coolant will be maintained within those chemistry limits found result in negligible corro n of the steam generator tubes. If the secondary coolant chemistry is not main ed within these its, localized corrosion may likely result in stress corrosion cracking.

The extent cracking d ng plant operation would be limited by the limitation of steam generator tube leakage b een e Reactor Coolant System and the Secondary Coolant System (reactor-to-secondary leakage -0 gallons per day per steam generator).

Cracks having a reactor-to-secondary leakage less tha is iiit during operation will have an adequate margin of safety to withstand the loads impose during no al operation and by postulated accidents.

Operating plants have demonstrated that actor-to-seconda leakage of 500 gallons per day per steam generator can readily be detected b adiation monitors of s m generator blowdown.

Maintaining the chemistry within the Steady-State Limits provides adequate corrosion protection to ensure the structural integrity of the Reactor Coolant System over the life of the plant. The associated effects of exceeding the oxygen, chloride, and fluoride limits are time and temperature dependent.

Corrosion studies show that operation may be continued with contaminant concentration levels in excess of the Steady-State Limits, up to the Transient Limits, for the specified limited time intervals without having a significant effect on the structural integrity of the Reactor Coolant System.The time interval permitting continued operation within the restrictions of the Transient Limits provides time for taking corrective actions to restore the contaminant concentrations to within the Steady-State Limits.The Surveillance Requirements provide adequate assurance that concentrations in excess of the limits will be detected in sufficient time to take corrective action.Wn'7- MOO I--- r- 1-...'

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program)Background Steam generator (SG) tubes are small diameter, thin walled tubes that carry primary coolant through the primary to secondary heat exchangers.

The SG tubes have a number of important safety functions.

SG tubes are an integral part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) and, as such, are relied on to maintain the primary system's pressure and inventory.

The SG tubes isolate the radioactive fission products in the primary coolant from the secondary system. In addition, as part of the RCPB, the SG tubes are unique in that they act as the heat transfer surface between the primary and secondary systems to remove heat from the primary system. This Specification addresses only the RCPB integrity function of the SG.The SG heat removal function is addressed by LCO 3.4.1.1, "Reactor Coolant Loops and Coolant Circulation

-Startup and Power Operation," LCO 3.4.1.2, "Hot Standby," LCO 3.4.1.3, "Hot Shutdown," LCO 3.4.1.4.1, "Cold Shutdown -Loops Filled," and LCO 3.4.1.4.2, "Cold Shutdown -Loops Not Filled." SG tube integrity means that the tubes are capable of performing their intended RCPB safety function consistent with the licensing basis, including applicable regulatory requirements.

SG tubing is subject to a variety of degradation mechanisms.

SG tubes may experience tube degradation related to corrosion phenomena, such as wastage, pitting, intergranular attack, and stress corrosion cracking, along with other mechanically induced phenomena such as denting and wear. These degradation mechanisms can impair tube integrity if they are not managed effectively.

The SG performance criteria are used to manage SG tube degradation.

Specification 6.8.4j, "Steam Generator (SG) Program," requires that a program be established and implemented to ensure that SG tube integrity is maintained.

Pursuant to Specification 6.8.4j, tube integrity is maintained when the SG performance criteria are met. There are three SG performance criteria:

structural integrity, accident induced leakage, and operational leakage. The SG performance criteria are described in Specification 6.8.4.j. Meeting the SG performance criteria provides reasonable assurance of maintaining tube integrity at normal and accident conditions.

The processes used to meet the SG performance criteria are defined by the Steam Generator Program Guidelines (Ref. 1).Applicable Safety Analyses The steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) accident is the limiting design basis event for SG tubes and avoiding a SGTR is the basis for this Specification.

The analysis of a SGTR event assumes a bounding primary-to-secondary leakage rate equal to 500 gpd for the two intact SGs plus the leakage rate associated with a double-ended rupture of a single tube in the third (ruptured)

SG. The accident analysis for a SGTR assumes the contaminated secondary fluid is released to the atmosphere via safety valves or atmospheric dump valves. No credit for iodine removal is taken for any steam released to the condenser prior to reactor trip and concurrent loss of offsite power.

L-2006-074 Enclosure 4, Bases Mark up and Inserts INSERT B3/4.4.5 (0-ADM-536

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 7 of 18 The analysis for design basis accidents and transients other than a SGTR assume the SG tubes retain their structural integrity (i.e., they are assumed not to rupture).

In the dose consequence analysis for these events the activity level in the steam discharged to the atmosphere is based on a primary-to-secondary leakage rate of 1 gpm through all SGs and 500 gpd through any one SG at accident conditions, which is conservative and bounds the allowable operational leakage rate as an initial condition and considers any leakage changes as a result of the accident induced changes in primary-to-secondary pressure differential.

For accidents that do not involve fuel damage, the primary coolant activity level of DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 is assumed to be equal to the LCO 3.4.8, "Reactor Coolant System Specific Activity," limits. For accidents that assume fuel damage, the primary coolant activity is a function of the amount of activity released from the damaged fuel.The dose consequences of these events are within the limits of GDC 19 (Ref. 2), 10 CFR 100 (Ref. 3), 10 CFR 50.67 (Ref. 7) or the NRC approved licensing basis.Steam generator tube integrity satisfies Criterion 2 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).

Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO)The LCO requires that SG tube integrity be maintained.

The LCO also requires that all SG tubes that satisfy the repair criteria be plugged in accordance with the Steam Generator Program.During a SG inspection, any inspected tube that satisfies the Steam Generator Program repair criteria is removed from service by plugging.

If a tube was determined to satisfy the repair criteria but was not plugged, the tube may still have tube integrity.

In the context of this Specification, a SG tube is defined as the entire length of the tube, including the tube wall between the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube inlet and the tube-to-tubesheet weld at the tube outlet.The tube-to-tubesheet weld is not considered part of the tube.A SG tube has tube integrity when it satisfies the SG performance criteria.

The SG performance criteria are defined in Specification 6.8.4.j and describe acceptable SG tube performance.

The Steam Generator Program also provides the evaluation process for determining conformance with the SG performance criteria.There are three SG performance criteria:

structural integrity, accident induced leakage, and operational leakage. Failure to meet any one of these criteria is considered failure to meet the LCO.

L-2006-074 Enclosure 4, Bases Mark up and Inserts INSERT B3/4.4.5 (0-ADM-536

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 8 of 18 The structural integrity performance criterion provides a margin of safety against tube burst or collapse under normal and accident conditions, and ensures structural integrity of the SG tubes under all anticipated transients included in the design specification.

Tube burst is defined as, "The gross structural failure of the tube wall. The condition typically corresponds to an unstable opening displacement (e.g., opening area increased in response to constant pressure) accompanied by ductile (plastic) tearing of the tube material at the ends of the degradation." Tube collapse is defined as, "For the load displacement curve for a given structure, collapse occurs at the top of the load verses displacement curve where the slope of the curve becomes zero." The structural integrity performance criterion provides guidance on assessing loads that have a significant effect on burst or collapse.

In that context, the term "significant" is defined as "An accident loading condition other than differential pressure is considered significant when the addition of such loads in the assessment of the structural integrity performance criterion could cause a lower structural limit or limiting burst/collapse condition to be established." For tube integrity evaluations, except for circumferential degradation, axial thermal loads are classified as secondary loads. For circumferential degradation, the classification of axial thermal loads as primary or secondary loads will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The division between primary and secondary classifications will be based on detailed analysis and/or testing.Structural integrity requires that the primary membrane stress intensity in a tube not exceed the yield strength for all ASME Code,Section III, Service Level A (normal operating conditions) and Service Level B (upset or abnormal conditions) transients included in the design specification.

This includes safety factors and applicable design basis loads based on ASME Code,Section III, Subsection NB (Ref. 4) and Draft Regulatory Guide 1.121 (Ref. 5).The accident induced leakage performance criterion ensures that the primary-to-secondary leakage caused by any changes in primary-to-secondary pressure differential during a design basis accident, other than a SGTR, is considered in the accident dose consequences analysis.

The limiting accident analysis (steam line break) assumes that accident induced leakage does not exceed 500 gpd in any one of the three SGs and the total leakage from all SGs does not exceed I gpm at accident conditions.

This accident induced leakage rate assumption conservatively bounds the expected total accident primary-to-secondary leakage based on the allowable operational leakage rate as an initial condition and considers any leakage changes as a result of the accident induced changes in primary-to-secondary pressure differential.

The operational leakage performance criterion provides an observable indication of SG tube conditions during plant operation.

The limit on operational leakage is contained in LCO 3.4.6.2 and limits primary-to-secondary leakage through any one SG to 150 gpd at room temperature.

This limit is based on the assumption that a single crack leaking this amount would not propagate to a SGTR under the stress conditions of a LOCA or a main steam line break. If this amount of leakage is due to more than one crack, the cracks are very small, and the above assumption is conservative.

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 9 of 18 Applicability SG tube integrity is challenged when the pressure differential across the tubes is large. Large differential pressures across SG tubes can only be experienced in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4.Reactor Coolant System conditions are far less challenging in MODES 5 and 6 than during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4. In MODES 5 and 6, primary-to-secondary differential pressure is low, resulting in lower stresses and reduced potential for leakage.ACTIONS The ACTIONS are modified by a Note clarifying that the ACTIONS may be entered independently for each SG tube. This is acceptable because the ACTIONS provide appropriate compensatory actions for each affected SG tube. Complying with the ACTIONS may allow for continued operation, and subsequent affected SG tubes are governed by subsequent ACTION entry and application.

a. I and a.2 ACTIONS a. 1 and a.2 apply if it is discovered that one or more SG tubes examined in an inservice inspection satisfy the tube repair criteria but were not plugged in accordance with the Steam Generator Program as required by Surveillance Requirement (SR) 4.4.5.2. An evaluation of SG tube integrity of the affected tube(s) must be made. SG tube integrity is based on meeting the SG performance criteria described in the Steam Generator Program. The SG repair criteria define limits on SG tube degradation that allow for flaw growth between inspections while still providing assurance that the SG performance criteria will continue to be met. In order to determine if a SG tube that should have been plugged has tube integrity, an evaluation must be completed that demonstrates that the SG performance criteria will continue to be met until the next refueling outage or SG tube inspection.

The tube integrity determination is based on the estimated condition of the tube at the time the situation is discovered and the estimated growth of the degradation prior to the next SG tube inspection.

If it is determined that tube integrity is not being maintained, ACTION b applies.An allowable outage time of seven days is sufficient to complete the evaluation while minimizing the risk of plant operation with a SG tube that may not have tube integrity.

L-2006-074 Enclosure 4, Bases Mark up and Inserts INSERT B3/4.4.5 (0-ADM-536

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 10 of 18 If the evaluation determines that the affected tube(s) have tube integrity, ACTION a.2 allows plant operation to continue until the next refueling outage or SG inspection provided the inspection interval continues to be supported by an operational assessment that reflects the affected tubes.However, the affected tube(s) must be plugged prior to entering MODE 4 following the next refueling outage or SG inspection.

This allowable outage time is acceptable since operation until the next inspection is supported by the operational assessment.

b.If the requirements and associated allowable outage time of ACTION a are not met or if SG tube integrity is not being maintained, the reactor must be brought to HOT STANDBY within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days 0.00167 hours 9.920635e-6 weeks 2.283e-6 months and COLD SHUTDOWN within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days 0.00833 hours 4.960317e-5 weeks 1.1415e-5 months . The allowable outage times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the desired plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.Surveillance Requirements SR 4.4.5.1 During shutdown periods the SGs are inspected as required by this SR and the Steam Generator Program.NEI 97-06, "Steam Generator Program Guidelines" (Ref. 1), and its referenced EPRI Guidelines, establish the content of the Steam Generator Program. Use of the Steam Generator Program ensures that the inspection is appropriate and consistent with accepted industry practices.

During SG inspections a condition monitoring assessment of the SG tubes is performed.

The condition monitoring assessment determines the "as found" condition of the SG tubes. The purpose of the condition monitoring assessment is to ensure that the SG performance criteria have been met for the previous operating period.The Steam Generator Program determines the scope of the inspection and the methods used to determine whether the tubes contain flaws satisfying the tube repair criteria.

Inspection scope (i.e., which tubes or areas of tubing within the SG are to be inspected) is a function of existing and potential degradation locations.

The Steam Generator Program also specifies the inspection methods to be used to find potential degradation.

Inspection methods are a function of degradation morphology, non-destructive examination (NDE) technique capabilities, and inspection locations.

The Steam Generator Program defines the frequency of SR 4.4.5.1. The frequency is determined by the operational assessment and other limits in the SG examination guidelines (Ref. 6). The Steam Generator Program uses information on existing degradations and growth rates to determine an inspection frequency that provides reasonable assurance that the tubing will meet the SG performance criteria at the next scheduled inspection.

In addition, Specification 6.8.4j contains prescriptive requirements concerning inspection intervals to provide added assurance that the SG performance criteria will be met between scheduled inspections.

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 11 of 18 SR 4.4.5.2 During a SG inspection any inspected tube that satisfies the Steam Generator Program repair criteria is removed from service by plugging.

The tube repair criteria delineated in Specification 6.8.4j are intended to ensure that tubes accepted for continued service satisfy the SG performance criteria with allowance for error in the flaw size measurement and for future flaw growth. In addition, the tube repair criteria, in conjunction with other elements of the Steam Generator Program, ensure that the SG performance criteria will continue to be met until the next inspection of the subject tube(s). Reference 1 provides guidance for performing operational assessments to verify that the tubes remaining in service will continue to meet the SG performance criteria.The frequency of prior to entering HOT SHUTDOWN following a SG tube inspection ensures that the Surveillance has been completed and all tubes meeting the repair criteria are plugged prior to subjecting the SG tubes to significant primary-to-secondary pressure differential.

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 12 of 18 Background Components that contain or transport the coolant to or from the reactor core make up the Reactor Coolant System (RCS). Component joints are made by welding, bolting, rolling, or pressure loading, and valves isolate connecting systems from the RCS.During plant life, the joint and valve interfaces can produce varying amounts of reactor coolant Leakage, through either normal operational wear or mechanical deterioration.

The purpose of the RCS Operational Leakage LCO is to limit system operation in the presence of Leakage from these sources to amounts that do not compromise safety. This LCO specifies the types and amounts of leakage.The UFSAR (Ref. I) describes the design criteria requirement to provide means for detecting significant uncontrolled leakage from the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB). Regulatory Guide 1.45 (Ref. 2)describes acceptable methods for selecting leakage detection systems.The safety significance of RCS leakage varies widely depending on its source, rate, and duration.Therefore, detecting and monitoring reactor coolant leakage into the containment area is necessary.

Quickly separating the IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE from the UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE is necessary to provide quantitative information to the operators, allowing them to take corrective action should a leak occur that is detrimental to the safety of the facility and the public.A limited amount of leakage inside containment is expected from auxiliary systems that cannot be made 100% leaktight.

Leakage from these systems should be detected, located, and isolated from the containment atmosphere, if possible, to not interfere with RCS leakage detection.

This LCO deals with protection of the RCPB from degradation and the core from inadequate cooling, in addition to preventing the accident analyses radiation release assumptions from being exceeded.

The consequences of violating this LCO include the possibility of a loss of coolant accident (LOCA).Applicable Safety Analyses Primary-to-secondary leakage contaminates the secondary fluid. The safety analysis for an event resulting in steam discharge to the atmosphere assumes that primary-to-secondary leakage from all steam generators (SGs) is 1 gpm or 500 gallons per day from a single SG at accident conditions.

The dose consequences of these events are within the limits of GDC 19 (Ref. 2), 10 CFR 100 (Ref. 3), 10 CFR 50.67 (Ref. 6) or the NRC approved licensing basis. The LCO requirement to limit primary-to-secondary leakage through any one SG to less than or equal to 150 gpd at room temperature is significantly less than the conditions assumed in the safety analysis.

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 13 of 18 The UFSAR (Ref. 3) analysis for SGTR assumes the contaminated secondary fluid is released to the atmosphere via the atmospheric dump valves and/or main steam safety valves for a limited period of time.Operator action is taken to isolate the affected SG within the time period. The 500 gpd primary-to-secondary leakage in each SG at accident conditions assumed in the safety analysis assumption is relatively inconsequential.

The RCS operational leakage satisfies Criterion 2 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).

Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO)RCS operational leakage shall be limited to: a. PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE No PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE is allowed, being indicative of material deterioration.

Leakage of this type is unacceptable as the leak itself could cause further deterioration, resulting in higher leakage. Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of the RCPB. Leakage past seals and gaskets is not PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE.b. UNIDENTIFED LEAKAGE One gallon per minute (gpm) of UNIDENTIFED LEAKAGE is allowed as a reasonable minimum detectable amount that the containment air monitoring and containment sump level monitoring equipment can detect within a reasonable time period. Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of the RCPB, if the leakage is from the pressure boundary.

IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE Up to 10 gpm of IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE is considered allowable because leakage is from known sources that do not interfere with detection of UNIDENTIFED LEAKAGE and is well with in the capability of the RCS Makeup System. IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE includes leakage to the containment from specifically known and located sources, but does not include PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE or controlled reactor coolant pump seal leakoff (a normal function not considered leakage).

Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of a component or system.d. Primary-to-Secondary Leakage Through Any One SG The limit of 150 gpd per SG at room temperature is based on the operational leakage performance criterion in NEI 97-06, Steam Generator Program Guidelines (Ref. 4). The Steam Generator Program operational leakage performance criterion in NEI 97-06 states, "The RCS operational primary-to-secondary leakage through any one SG shall be limited to 150 gallons per day." The limit is based on operating experience with SG tube degradation mechanisms that result in tube leakage. The operational leakage rate criterion in conjunction with the implementation of the Steam Generator Program is an effective measure for minimizing the frequency of SG tube ruptures.e. RCS Pressure Isolation Valve Leakage RCS pressure isolation valve leakage is IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE into closed systems connected to the RCS. Isolation valve leakage is usually on the order of drops per minute. Leakage that increases significantly suggests that something is operationally wrong and corrective action must be taken.The specified leakage limits for the RCS pressure isolation valves are sufficiently low to ensure early detection of possible in-series check valve failure.Applicability In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the potential for reactor coolant PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE is greatest when the RCS is pressurized.

In MODES 5 and 6, leakage limits are not required because the reactor coolant pressure is far lower, resulting in lower stresses and reduced potentials for leakage.

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 15 of 18 ACTIONS a.If any PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE exists, or primary-to-secondary leakage is not within limit, the reactor must be brought to lower pressure conditions to reduce the severity of the leakage and its potential consequences.

It should be noted that Leakage past seals and gaskets is not PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE. The reactor must be brought to HOT STANDBY within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days 0.00167 hours 9.920635e-6 weeks 2.283e-6 months and COLD SHUTDOWN within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days 0.00833 hours 4.960317e-5 weeks 1.1415e-5 months . This ACTION reduces the leakage and also reduces the factors that tend to degrade the pressure boundary.b.UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE or IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE in excess of the LCO limits must be reduced to within the limits within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days 0.00111 hours 6.613757e-6 weeks 1.522e-6 months . This allowable outage time allows time to verify leakage rates and either identify UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE or reduce leakage to within limits before the reactor must be shut down. This ACTION is necessary to prevent further deterioration of the RCPB.C.The leakage from any RCS Pressure Isolation Valve is sufficiently low to ensure early detection of possible in-series valve failure. It is apparent that when pressure isolation is provided by two in-series valves and when failure of one valve in the pair can go undetected for a substantial length of time, verification of valve integrity is required.

With one or more RCS Pressure Isolation Valves with leakage greater than that allowed by Specification 3.4.6.2.e, within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days 0.00111 hours 6.613757e-6 weeks 1.522e-6 months , at least two valves in each high pressure line having a non-functional valve must be closed and remain closed to isolate the affected line(s). In addition, the ACTION statement for the affected system must be followed and the leakage from the remaining Pressure Isolation Valves in each high pressure line having a valve not meeting the criteria of Table 3.4-1 shall be recorded daily. If these requirements are not met, the reactor must be brought to at least HOT STANDBY within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days 0.00167 hours 9.920635e-6 weeks 2.283e-6 months and COLD SHUTDOWN within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days 0.00833 hours 4.960317e-5 weeks 1.1415e-5 months .d.With one or more RCS Pressure Isolation Valves with leakage greater than 5 gpm, the leakage must be reduced to below 5 gpm within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months or the reactor must be brought to at least HOT STANDBY within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days 0.00167 hours 9.920635e-6 weeks 2.283e-6 months and COLD SHUTDOWN within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days 0.00833 hours 4.960317e-5 weeks 1.1415e-5 months .The allowable outage times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems. In MODE 5, the pressure stresses acting on the RCPB are much lower, and further deterioration is much less likely.

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 16 of 18 Surveillance Requirements SR 4.4.6.2.1 Verifying Reactor Coolant System leakage to be within the LCO limits ensures the integrity of the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary is maintained.

PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE would at first appear as UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE and can only be positively identified by inspection.

It should be noted that leakage past seals and gaskets is not PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE. UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE and IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE are determined by performance or a Reactor Coolant System water inventory balance.aandb.These SRs demonstrate that the RCS operational leakage is within the LCO limits by monitoring the containment atmosphere gaseous or particulate radioactivity monitor and the containment sump level at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months .c.The RCS water inventory balance must be performed with the reactor at steady state operating conditions and near operating pressure.

The Surveillance is modified by two notes. Note *** states that this SR is not required to be performed until 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months after establishment of steady state operation.

The 12 hour1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months allowance provides sufficient time to collect and process all necessary data after stable plant conditions are established.

Steady state operations is required to perform a proper inventory balance since calculations during maneuvering are not useful. For RCS operational leakage determination by water inventory balance, steady state is defined as stable RCS pressure, temperature, power level, pressurizer and makeup tank levels, makeup and letdown, and Reactor Coolant Pump seal injection and return flows. An early warning of PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE or UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE is provided by the automatic systems that monitor containment atmosphere radioactivity, containment normal sump inventory and discharge, and reactor head flange leakoff. It should be noted that leakage past seals and gaskets is not PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE. These leakage detection systems are specified in LCO 3.4.6.1,"Reactor Coolant System Leakage Detection Systems." Note ** states that this SR is "not applicable to primary-to-secondary leakage" because leakage of 150 gallons per day cannot be measured accurately by an RCS water inventory balance.The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months frequency is a reasonable interval to trend leakage and recognizes the importance of early leakage detection in the prevention of accidents.

d.This SR demonstrates that the RCS operational leakage is within the LCO limits by monitoring the Reactor Head Flange Leakoff System at least once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months .

-Technical Specification Bases Control Program) Page 17 of 18 e.This SR verifies that primary-to-secondary leakage is less than or equal to 150 gpd through any one SG.Satisfying the primary-to-secondary leakage limit ensures that the operational leakage performance criterion in the Steam Generator Program is met. If this SR is not met, compliance with LCO 3.4.5, "Steam Generator (SG) Tube Integrity," should be evaluated.

The 150-gpd limit is measured at room temperature as described in Reference

1. The operational leakage rate limit applies to leakage through any one SG. If it is not practical to assign the leakage to an individual SG, all the primary-to-secondary leakage should be conservatively assumed to be from one SG.The SR is modified by Note ***, which states that the Surveillance is not required to be performed until 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months after establishment of steady state operation.

For RCS primary-to-secondary leakage determination, steady state is defined as stable RCS pressure, temperature, power level, pressurizer and makeup tank levels, makeup and letdown, and reactor coolant pump seal injection and return flows.The surveillance frequency of 72 hours8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months is a reasonable interval to trend primary-to-secondary leakage and recognizes the importance of early leakage detection in the prevention of accidents.

The primary-to-secondary leakage is determined using continuous process radiation monitors or radiochemical grab sampling in accordance with the EPRI guidelines (Ref. 5).SR 4.4.6.2.2 It is apparent that when pressure isolation is provided by two in-series check valves and when failure of one valve in the pair can go undetected for a substantial length of time, verification of valve integrity is required.Since these valves are important in preventing overpressurization and rupture of the ECCS low pressure piping, which could result in a LOCA that bypasses containment, these valves should be tested periodically to ensure low probability of gross failure.This SR verifies RCS Pressure Isolation Valve integrity thereby reducing the probability of gross valve failure and consequent intersystem LOCA. Leakage from the RCS pressure isolation valve is IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE and will be considered as a portion of the allowed limit.References

The values for the limits on specific activity represent limits based upon a parametric evaluation by the NRC of typical site locations.

These values are conservative in that specific site parameters of the Turkey Point site, Units 3 and 4 site, such as SITE BOUNDARY location and meteorological conditions, were not considered in this evaluation.

The ACTION statement permitting POWER OPERATION to continue for limited time periods with the reactor coolant's specific activity greater than 1 microCurie/gram DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131, but within the allowable limit shown on Figure 3.4-1, accommodates possible iodine spiking phenomenon which may occur following changes in THERMAL POWER.The sample analysis for determining the gross specific activity and E can exclude the radioiodines because of the low reactor coolant limit of 1 microCurie/gram DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131, and because, if the limit is exceeded, the radioiodine level is to be determined every 4 hours4.62963e-5 days 0.00111 hours 6.613757e-6 weeks 1.522e-6 months . If the gross specific activity level and radioiodine level in the reactor coolant were at their limits, the radioiodine contribution would be approximately 1%. In a release of reactor coolant with a typical mixture of radioactivity, the actual radioiodine contribution would probably be about 20%. The exclusion of radionuclides with half-lives less than 30 minutes from these determinations has been made for several reasons. The first consideration is the difficulty to identify short-lived radionuclides in a sample that requires a significant time to collect, transport, and analyze. The second consideration is the predictable delay time between the postulated release of radioactivity from the reactor coolant to its release to the environment and transport to the SITE BOUNDARY, which is relatable to at least 30 minutes decay time. The choice of 30 minutes for the half-life cutoff was made because of the nuclear characteristics of the typical reactor coolant radioactivity.

Based upon the above considerations for excluding certain radionuclides from the sample analysis, the allowable time of 2 hours2.314815e-5 days 5.555556e-4 hours 3.306878e-6 weeks 7.61e-7 months between sample taking and completing the initial analysis is based upon a typical time necessary to perform the sampling, transport the sample, and perform the analysis of about 90 minutes. After 90 minutes, the gross count should be made in a reproducible geometry of sample and counter having reproducible beta or gamma self-shielding properties.

The counter should be reset to a reproducible efficiency versus energy. It is not necessary to identify specific nuclides.

The radiochemical determination of nuclides should be based on multiple counting of the sample within typical counting basis following sampling of less than 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months , about 2 hours2.314815e-5 days 5.555556e-4 hours 3.306878e-6 weeks 7.61e-7 months , about 1 day, about 1 week, and about 1 month.
