- 1. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this document is to confirm the results of the Westinghouse Owners Group application of the Technical Specification selection criteria on a plant specific basis for the Kewaunee Power Station (KPS). Dominion Energy Kewaunee (hereinafter DEK) has reviewed the application and confirmed the applicability of the selection criteria to each of the Technical Specifications utilized in report WCAP-11618, "Methodically Engineered Restructured and Improved Technical Specifications, MERITS Program - Phase II Task 5, Criteria Application" (Reference 1) including Addendum 1, NRC Staff Review of NSSS Vendor Owners Groups Application of The Commission's Interim Policy Statement Criteria To Standard Technical Specifications, Murley/Newton letter dated May 9, 1988 and as revised in NUREG-1431, Revision 3.0 "Standard Technical Specifications, Westinghouse Plants" (Reference 2) and applied the criteria to each of the current KPS Technical Specifications. Additionally, in accordance with the NRC Final Policy Statement (Reference 3), this confirmation of the application of selection criteria includes confirming the risk insights from Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) evaluations, provided in Reference 1, as applicable to the KPS.

- 2. SELECTION CRITERIA DEK has utilized the selection criteria provided in the NRC Final Policy Statement on Technical Specification Improvements of July 22, 1993 (Reference 3) to develop the results contained in the attached matrix. PRA insights as used in the Westinghouse Owners Group submittal were utilized, confirmed by DEK, and are discussed in the next section of this report. The selection criteria and discussion provided in Reference 3 are as follows:
Criterion 1: Installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary:
Discussion of Criterion 1: A basic concept in the adequate protection of the public health and safety is the prevention of accidents. Instrumentation is installed to detect significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary so as to allow operator actions to either correct the condition or to shut down the plant safely, thus reducing the likelihood of a loss-of-coolant accident.
This criterion is intended to ensure that Technical Specifications control those instruments specifically installed to detect excessive reactor coolant system leakage. This criterion should not, however, be interpreted to include instrumentation to detect precursors to reactor coolant pressure boundary leakage or instrumentation to identify the source of actual leakage (e.g.,
loose parts monitor, seismic instrumentation, valve position indicators).
Criterion 2: A process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a design basis accident (DBA) or transient analyses that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier:
Discussion of Criterion 2: Another basic concept in the adequate protection of the public health and safety is that the plant shall be operated within the bounds of the initial conditions assumed in the existing design basis accident and transient analyses and that the plant will be operated to preclude unanalyzed transients and accidents. These analyses consist of postulated events, analyzed in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR), for which a structure, system, or component must meet specified functional goals. These analyses are contained in Chapter 14 of the USAR (or equivalent chapters) and are identified as Condition II, III, or IV events Page 2 of 10 Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 5 of 55
Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 6 of 55 APPLICATION OF SELECTION CRITERIA TO THE KEWAUNEE POWER STATION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS (ANSI N18.2) (or equivalent) that either assume the failure of or present a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
As used in Criterion 2, process variables are only those parameters for which specific values or ranges of values have been chosen as reference bounds in the design basis accident or transient analyses and which are monitored and controlled during power operation such that process values remain within the analysis bounds. Process variables captured by Criterion 2 are not, however, limited to only those directly monitored and controlled from the control room.
These could also include other features or characteristics that are specifically assumed in Design Basis Accident and Transient analyses even if they cannot be directly observed in the control room (e.g, moderator temperature coefficient and hot channel factors).
The purpose of this criterion is to capture those process variables that have initial values assumed in the design basis accident and transient analyses, and which are monitored and controlled during power operation. As long as these variables are maintained within the established values, risk to the public safety is presumed to be acceptably low. This criterion also includes active design features (e.g., high pressure/low pressure system valves and interlocks) and operating restrictions (pressure/temperature limits) needed to preclude unanalyzed accidents and transients.
Criterion 3: A structure, system, or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a design basis accident or transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier:
Discussion of Criterion 3: A third concept in the adequate protection of the public health and safety is that in the event that a postulated design basis accident or transient should occur, structures, systems, and components are available to function or to actuate in order to mitigate the consequences of the design basis accident or transient. Safety sequence analyses or their equivalent have been performed in recent years and provide a method of presenting the plant response to an accident. These can be used to define the primary success paths.
A safety sequence analysis is a systematic examination of the actions required to mitigate the consequences of events considered in the plant's design basis accident and transient analyses, Page 3 of 10 Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 6 of 55
Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 7 of 55 APPLICATION OF SELECTION CRITERIA TO THE KEWAUNEE POWER STATION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS as presented in Chapters 14 of the plant's Updated Safety Analysis Report (or equivalent chapters). Such a safety sequence analysis considers all applicable events, whether explicitly or implicitly presented. The primary success path of a safety sequence analysis consists of the combination and sequences of equipment needed to operate (including consideration of the single failure criteria), so that the plant response to design basis accidents and transients limits the consequences of these events to within the appropriate acceptance criteria.
It is the intent of this criterion to capture into Technical Specifications only those structures, systems, and components that are part of the primary success path of a safety sequence analysis. Also captured by this criterion are those support and actuation systems that are necessary for items in the primary success path to successfully function. The primary success path for a particular mode of operation does not include backup and diverse equipment (e.g., rod withdrawal block which is a backup to the average power range monitor high flux trip in the startup mode, safety valves which are backup to low temperature overpressure relief valves during cold shutdown).
Criterion 4: A structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic safety assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety:
Discussion of Criterion 4: It is the Commission policy that licensees retain in their Technical Specifications LCOs, action statements and Surveillance Requirements for the following systems (as applicable), which operating experience and probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) have generally shown to be significant to public health and safety and any other structures, systems, or components that meet this criterion:
- Recirculation Pump Trip.
The Commission recognizes that other structures, systems, or components may meet this criterion. Plant and design-specific PRA's have yielded valuable insight to unique plant vulnerabilities not fully recognized in the safety analysis report Design Basis Accident or Transient analyses. It is the intent of this criterion that those requirements that PRA or operating experience exposes as significant to public health and safety, consistent with the Commission's Safety Goal and Severe Accident Policies, be retained or included in Technical Specifications.

Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 8 of 55 APPLICATION OF SELECTION CRITERIA TO THE KEWAUNEE POWER STATION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The Commission expects that licensees, in preparing their Technical Specification related submittals, will utilize any plant specific PRA or risk survey and any available literature on risk insights and PRAs. This material should be employed to strengthen the technical bases for those requirements that remain in Technical Specifications, when applicable, and to verify that none of the requirements to be relocated contain constraints of prime importance in limiting the likelihood or severity of the accident sequences that are commonly found to dominate risk.
Similarly, the NRC staff will also employ risk insights and PRAs in evaluating Technical Specifications related submittals. Further, as a part of the Commission's ongoing program of improving Technical Specifications, it will continue to consider methods to make better use of risk and reliability information for defining future generic Technical Specification requirements.

- 3. PRA INSIGHTS Introduction and Objectives Reference 3 includes a statement that the NRC expects licensees to utilize any plant specific PRA or risk survey and any available literature on risk insights and PRAs to strengthen the technical bases for these requirements that remain in Technical Specifications and to verify that none of the requirements to be relocated contain constraints of prime importance in limiting the likelihood or severity of the accident sequences that are commonly found to dominate risk.
Those Technical Specifications proposed as being relocated to other plant controlled documents will be maintained under programs subject to the 10 CFR 50.59 review process. These Relocated Specifications have been compared to a variety of PRA material with two purposes:
- 1) to identify if a Specification component or topic is addressed by PRA; and 2) if addressed, to judge if the Relocated Specification component or topic is risk-important. The intent of the PRA review was to provide an additional screen to the deterministic criteria. This review was accomplished in the generic Westinghouse Owners Group submittal WCAP-11618 and Addendum 1 to WCAP-11618 (Reference 1). The results of this generic review have been confirmed by DEK for the applicable KPS Specifications to be relocated. Where Reference 1 did not review a KPS Technical Specification against the criteria of Reference 3, DEK performed a review similar (but not identical) to that described below for Reference 1. The results of these reviews are presented in Appendix B.
Assumptions and Approach The WCAP-11618 evaluation of the risk impact of the Technical Specifications that are relocation candidates was based on the following:
- a. It was assumed that any of the Technical Specifications that were to be relocated would be transferred to other documents subject to control by the utility under the 10 CFR 50.59 process.
- b. The risk criteria used in determining the disposition of a Technical Specification were the following:
Page 6 of 10 Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 9 of 55
Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 10 of 55 APPLICATION OF SELECTION CRITERIA TO THE KEWAUNEE POWER STATION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- 1. If the Technical Specification contained constraints of prime importance in limiting the likelihood or severity of the accident sequences that are commonly found to dominate risk, it should be retained;
- 2. If the Technical Specification included items involved in one of these dominant sequences but had an insignificant impact on the probability or severity of that sequence, it was proposed to be relocated to another controlled document; and
- 3. If the Technical Specification was not involved in risk dominant sequences, it was proposed to be relocated to another controlled document.
- c. The measures related to risk used in this evaluation were core melt frequency and off-site health effects. These measures were consistent with the Final Policy Statement on Technical Specifications and the Safety Goal and Severe Accident Policy Statements.
- d. The criteria used to determine if a sequence was risk dominant was the following: For core melt, any sequence whose frequency was commonly found to be greater than 1 X 10-6 per reactor year was maintained as a possible dominant sequence as a conservative first cut. This was roughly 2% of the total core melt frequency of 5 X 10-5 for typical PRAs. Each specific sequence identified in the screening of the Technical Specifications was evaluated against the above conservative criterion to determine if it was risk dominant.
For off-site health effects, any sequence whose frequency of serious radioactive release was commonly found to be greater than 1 x 10-7 per reactor year was considered to be a dominant risk sequence for the purposes of WCAP-11618. This criterion was in agreement with the NRC position in the Safety Goal Policy for a goal of 1 X 10-6 for a total frequency of severe off-site release, and no greater than 1 X 10-7 for an individual sequence.
- e. Included in Section 4.0 of WCAP-11618, were two tables (Tables 3 and 4) which contained representative sequences for all identified types of initiating events considered in formal risk assessments for two types of reference plants. Table 3 was representative Page 7 of 10 Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 10 of 55
Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 11 of 55 APPLICATION OF SELECTION CRITERIA TO THE KEWAUNEE POWER STATION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS of a plant with a large dry containment and Table 4 contained the dominant accident sequences for a plant with a subatmospheric containment. These lists were based on industry PRAs and were reviewed for consistency with NRC sponsored PRA programs.
The results were found to be consistent.
Systems identified in Tables 3 and 4 of Section 4.0 of WCAP-11618 that contributed significantly to risk as defined in Paragraph d above were listed in Tables 3A, 3B, 4A and 4B of Section 4.0.
These identified systems as well as sequences and the risk dominant initiating events from Tables 3 and 4 which were involved in typical dominant core melt and serious release sequences from formal risk assessments were used to screen the requirements of the Technical Specifications reviewed. Those Technical Specifications whose requirements were relevant to these systems, sequences, and initiating events were further evaluated for risk dominance. The remaining Technical Specifications were evaluated on the basis of risk insights from references listed in Section 4.0, Appendix B of WCAP-11618. If the requirements of a Technical Specification were not found to be modeled in any reference and no significant issues were identified from a review of the risk insights, the conclusion was that it did not contain constraints of prime importance in limiting the likelihood or severity of accident sequences that are commonly found to dominate risk.

, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 40 of 55 APPENDIX A JUSTIFICATION FOR SPECIFICATION RELOCATION , Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 40 of 55
Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 41 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation 3.1.a.7: Reactor Coolant Vent System 4.16: Reactor Coolant Vent System Tests DISCUSSION:
CTS 3.1.a.7 provides requirements for the reactor coolant vent system. CTS 4.16 provides the testing requirements for the reactor coolant vent system.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. The reactor coolant vent system is not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. The reactor coolant vent system is not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or Transient Analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. The reactor coolant vent system is not a structure, system or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or Transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. The reactor coolant vent system is not a structure, system or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
CONCLUSION:
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the reactor coolant vent system Specifications may be relocated to other plant controlled documents outside Technical Specifications.
Page 1 of 15 Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 41 of 55
Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 42 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation 3.1.b.2: Steam Generators DISCUSSION:
CTS 3.1.b.2 states that the secondary side of the steam generator must not be pressurized > 200 psig if the temperature of the steam generator is < 70ºF.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. The steam generator pressure/temperature limit is not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. The steam generator pressure/temperature limit is not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or Transient Analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. The steam generator pressure/temperature limit is not a structure, system, or component that is part of primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or Transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. The steam generator pressure/temperature limit is not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
CONCLUSION:
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the Steam Generator pressure/temperature limits Specification may be relocated to other plant controlled documents outside Technical Specifications.

Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 43 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation 3.1.b.3: Pressurizer DISCUSSION:
CTS 3.1.b.3 states that the pressurizer cooldown and heatup rates shall not exceed 200ºF/hr and 100ºF/hr, respectively. It also states that the spray shall not be used if the temperature difference between the pressurizer and the spray fluid is > 320ºF.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. The pressurizer pressure/temperature limits are not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. The pressurizer pressure/temperature limits are not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or Transient Analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. The pressurizer pressure/temperature limits are not a structure, system, or component that is part of primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or Transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. The pressurizer pressure/temperature limits are not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
CONCLUSION:

Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 45 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation 3.2.a: Chemical and Volume Control System DISCUSSION:
CTS 3.2.a provides requirements on boric acid flow paths to the reactor core although the specification is labeled "Chemical and Volume Control System. The purpose for a boric acid flow path is for control of the chemical neutron absorber (boron) concentration in the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) and to help maintain the SHUTDOWN MARGIN.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. The Chemical and Volume Control System is not used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. The Chemical and Volume Control System is not used to indicate status of, or monitor a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. The Chemical and Volume Control System is a structure, system, or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or Transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. The loss of the Chemical and Volume Control System (i.e., boric acid flow path to the core -
operating and shutdown) was found to be a non-significant risk contributor to core damage frequency and offsite releases.
CONCLUSION:
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the Chemical and Volume Control System Specification may be relocated to other plant controlled documents outside Technical Specifications.

Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 50 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation 3.8.a.11: Dead Load Test Table TS 4.1-3, Equipment Test 5: Refueling System Interlocks DISCUSSION:
CTS 3.8.a.11 states that a dead-load test shall be successfully performed on both the fuel handling and manipulator cranes before fuel movement begins. The load assumed by the cranes for the test must be equal to or greater than the maximum load to be assumed by the cranes during the REFUELING OPERATIONS. CTS 3.8.a.11 also requires a thorough visual inspection of the cranes shall be made after the dead-load test and prior to fuel handling. This Specification ensures the lifting device on the Manipulator Crane has adequate capacity to lift the weight of a fuel assembly and a Rod Control Cluster Assembly, and that an automatic load limiting device is available to prevent damage to the fuel assembly during fuel movement. This Specification also ensures the auxiliary hoist on the Manipulator Crane has adequate capacity for latching and unlatching control rod drive shafts. CTS Table TS 4.1-3, Equipment Test 5 requires the Refueling System Interlocks to be tested each Refueling Outage. This test ensures the other manipulator crane interlocks (e.g., ensuring only one component can be moved at one time) are OPERABLE.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. The Fuel Handling and Manipulator Cranes are not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. The Fuel Handling and Manipulator Cranes are not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a Design Basis Analysis (DBA) or transient analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. The Fuel Handling and Manipulator Cranes are not a structure, system, or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions to actuate or mitigate a DBA or transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. The Fuel Handling and Manipulator Cranes are not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
CONCLUSION:
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the Dead Load Test Specification may be relocated to other plant controlled documents outside Technical Specifications.

Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 51 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation 3.11.a: Core Surveillance Instrumentation 3.11.b: Core Surveillance Instrumentation 3.11.d: Core Surveillance Instrumentation DISCUSSION:
CTS 3.11, 3.11.a, 3.11.b, and 3.11.d ensure the OPERABILITY of movable incore detector instrumentation when required to monitor the flux distribution within the core. The instrumentation is used for periodic Surveillance of the reactor core power distribution, and calibration of the excore neutron flux detectors, but is not assumed in any design basis accident (DBA) analysis and does not mitigate an accident.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. The movable incore detectors are not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. The movable incore detectors are not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. The movable incore detectors are not a structure, system, or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or Transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. The movable incore detectors are not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
CONCLUSION:
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the Core Surveillance Instrumentation Specification may be relocated to other plant controlled documents outside Technical Specifications.

Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 52 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation 4.13: Radioactive Materials Sources DISCUSSION:
CTS 4.13 provides the testing requirements for possession, leak test, and record requirements for radioactive material sources required for operation of the facility. The limitations of sealed source contamination are intended to ensure that the radioactive material sources are available to the facility and are free from leakage. These Surveillance Requirements bear no relation to the conditions or limitations that are necessary to ensure safe reactor operation.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. Radioactive Materials Sources is not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. Radioactive Materials Sources is not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. Radioactive Materials Sources is not a structure, system, or component that is part of the primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. Radioactive Materials Sources is not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
CONCLUSION:

Attachment 1, Volume 1, Rev. 1, Page 53 of 55 Appendix A - Justification For Specification Relocation Table TS 4.1-1, Channel Description 29: Seismic Instrumentation DISCUSSION:
CTS Table TS 4.1-1 Channel Description 29 provides requirements for seismic instrumentation.
In the event of an earthquake, seismic instrumentation is required to permit comparison of the measured response to that used in the design basis of the facility to determine if plant shutdown is required pursuant to Appendix A of 10 CFR 100. Since this is determined after the event has occurred, it has no bearing on the mitigation of any design basis accident (DBA). The ITS does not include this Specification.
COMPARISON TO SCREENING CRITERIA:
- 1. Seismic instrumentation is not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. Seismic instrumentation is not a process variable, design feature, or operating restriction that is an initial condition of a DBA or transient analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. Seismic instrumentation is not a structure, system, or component that is part of a primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. Seismic instrumentation is not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
CONCLUSION:
Since the screening criteria have not been satisfied, the seismic instrumentation may be relocated out of the Technical Specifications.

DISCUSSION:
CTS Tables TS 3.5-6 and TS 4.1-1 provide requirements for Post-Accident Monitoring Instrumentation channels. Each individual post accident monitoring parameter has a specific purpose; however, the general purpose for all accident monitoring instrumentation is to ensure sufficient information is available following an accident to allow an operator to verify the response of automatic safety systems, and to take preplanned manual actions to accomplish a safe shutdown of the plant.
The NRC position on application of the screening criteria to post-accident monitoring instrumentation is documented in a letter dated May 9, 1988 from T.E. Murley (NRC) to W.S. Wilgus (B&W Owners Group). The screening criteria are now incorporated into 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii). The NRC position taken was that the post-accident monitoring instrumentation table list should contain, on a plant specific basis, all Regulatory Guide 1.97 Type A plant instruments specified in the plant's Safety Evaluation Report (SER) on Regulatory Guide 1.97, and all Regulatory Guide 1.97 Category 1 plant instruments.
Accordingly, this position has been applied to KPS Regulatory Guide 1.97 plant instruments. Those plant instruments meeting these criteria have remained in Technical Specifications. The instruments not meeting these criteria will be relocated from the Technical Specifications to the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).
A review of the KPS USAR and the NRC Regulatory Guide 1.97 Safety Evaluation for KPS shows that the following CTS Table TS 3.5-6 and TS 4.1-1 Instruments do not meet Category 1 or Type A requirements.

- 1. These instruments are not installed instrumentation that is used to detect, and indicate in the control room, a significant abnormal degradation of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
- 2. The monitored parameters are not process variables, design features, or operating restrictions that are initial conditions of a DBA or transient analysis that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 3. These instruments are not a structure, system, or component that is part of a primary success path and which functions or actuates to mitigate a DBA or transient that either assumes the failure of or presents a challenge to the integrity of a fission product barrier.
- 4. These instruments are not a structure, system, or component which operating experience or probabilistic risk assessment has shown to be significant to public health and safety.
