If

maintenance

has

been

performed

that

its

an

overall

air

test

per

10

CFR

==

50,

Appendix

J,

III.D.2(b)(ii)

==

would

be

necessary

prior

to

establishing

==

The

==

existing

==

air

==

lock

==

doors

==

are

==

designed

==

so

==

that

==

the

==

air

==

lock

==

pressure

==

test

==

can

==

only

==

be

==

performed

==

after

==

a

==

strongback

==

(structural

==

bracing)

==

has

==

been

==

installed

==

on

==

the

==

inner

==

door,

==

since

==

the

==

pressure

==

used

==

to

==

perform

==

the

==

test

==

is

==

opposite

==

that

==

of

==

accident

==

pressure

==

and

==

would

==

tend

==

to

==

unseat

==

the

==

door.

==

Performing

==

the

==

full

==

air

==

lock

==

test

==

in

==

accordance

==

with

==

the

==

present

==

requirements

==

takes

==

approximately

==

12

==

hours,

==

since

==

it

==

requires

==

installation

==

of

==

the

==

strongback,

==

performing

==

the

==

test,

==

and

==

removing

==

the

==

strongback.

==

During

==

the

==

test,

==

access

==

through

==

the

==

air

==

lock

==

is

==

prohibited,

==

which,

==

therefore,

==

requires

==

evacuation

==

of

==

personnel

==

from

==

the

==

containment

==

or

==

the

==

personnel

==

must

==

remain

==

inside

==

the

==

containment

==

during

==

the

==

test

==

until

==

Mode

==

4

==

is

==

reached.

==

The

licensee

==

has

determined

that

pressurizing

the

the

60

pounds

pressure

==

after

each

opening,

and

prior

to

establishing

integrity,

provides

==

the

necessary

==

surveillance

==

to

==

ensure

==

the

==

sealing

==

capability

==

of

==

the

door

==

seals.

==

If

==

the

periodic

6-month

of

10

==

CFR

50,

Appendix

and

the

CFR

Appendix

are

current,

no

maintenance

on

the

air

lock

that

and

the

is

properly

as

determined

by

the

test,

==

there

is

no

==

reason

==

to

==

expect

==

that

==

the

air

lock

==

will

leak

just

==

because

==

it

==

has

==

been

==

opened

==

in

==

Modes

==

5

==

or

==

6.

==

Therefore,

there

==

is

==

no

==

impact

==

on

==

plant

==

operation

==

or

==

safety.

==

In

==

addition,

==

due

==

to

==

the

==

design

==

of

==

the

==

air

==

lock,

==

the

==

6-month

test

should

detect

air

deterioration.

==

IV.

==

Pursuant

to

10

CFR

50.12,

the

may,

upon

application

by

any

person

or

upon

its

own

grant

exemptions

from

the

requirements

of

10

==

CFR

==

Part

==

50,

==

when

==

(1)

==

the

exemptions

==

are

authorized

by

law,

==

will

==

not

present

==

an

undue

==

risk

==

to

public

==

health

==

or

==

safety,

==

and

==

are

==

consistent

==

with

==

the

common

==

defense

==

and

==

security;

==

and

==

(2)

==

when

==

special

==

circumstances

==

are

==

present.

==

This

==

is

==

also

==

consistent

==

with

==

the

==

determination

==

that

==

the

==

staff

==

has

==

reached

==

for

==

other

==

licensees

==

under

==

similar

==

conditions

==

based

==

on

==

the

==

same

==

considerations.

==

Accordingly,

==

the

==

staff

==

concludes

==

that

==

the

==

licensee's

==

proposed

==

approach

==

of

==

substituting

==

the

==

3-day

==

seal

==

leakage

==

test

==

requirements

==

of

10

==

CFR

==

IIl.D.(b)(iii)

==

for

the

of

10

==

CFR

==

50,

==

Appendix

==

J,

==

Section

==

III.D.(b)(ii)

==

is

==

acceptable

==

when

==

no

==

maintenance

==

that

==

could

==

affect

==

the

==

sealing

==

capability

==

has

==

been

==

performed

==

on

==

the

==

air

==

lock.

==

Whenever

==

maintenance

==

that

==

could

==

affect

==

the

==

sealing

==

capability

==

has

==

been

==

performed

==

on

the

the

of

==

Appendix

J,

Section

III.D.(b)(ii)

==

must

still

be

met.

==

Therefore,

==

the

==

staff

==

concludes

==

that

==

requesting

==

the

==

exemption

==

under

==

the

==

special

==

circumstances

==

of

==

10

==

CFR

==

50.12(a)(2)(ii)

==

is

==

appropriate

==

and

==

that

==

application

==

of

==

the

==

regulation

==

is

==

not

==

necessary

==

to

==

serve

==

the

==

underlying

purpose

==

of

==

the

==

rule.

==

The

==

underlying

==

purpose

==

of

==

the

==

rule

==

is

==

to

==

ensure

==

that:

==

(a)

==

leakage

==

through

==

the

==

primary

==

containment,

==

and

==

systems

==

and

==

components

==

penetrating

==

the

==

primary

==

containment,

==

does

==

not

==

exceed

==

the

==

allowable

==

leakage

==

rate

==

values

==

specified

==

in

==

the

==

Technical

==

Specifications

==

or

==

associated

==

Bases;

==

and

==

(b)

==

periodic

==

surveillance

==

of

containment

==

penetrations

==

and

==

isolation

==

valves,

==

and

==

systems

==

and

==

components

==

penetrating

==

the

==

containment,

==

is

==

performed

==

so

==

that

==

proper

==

maintenance

==

and

==

repairs

==

are

==

made

==

during

==

the

==

service

==

life

==

of

==

the

==

containment.

==

V.

==

Accordingly,

==

the

==

Commission

==

has

==

determined

==

that,

==

pursuant

==

to

==

10

==

CFR

==

50.12(a),

==

the

==

exemption

==

is

==

authorized

==

by

law,

==

will

==

not

==

endanger

==

life

==

or

==

property

==

or

==

common

==

defense

==

and

==

security,

==

and

==

is,

==

otherwise,

==

in

==

the

==

public

==

interest.

==

Therefore,

==

the

==

Commission

==

hereby

==

grants

==

Duke

==

an

exemption

from

the
