- Objective:
l The objective of this step is to initially assess all safety functions to determinewhichonesareinjeopardy.
l j Basis: (CEN-152,page10-4, steps 2and3)
! The primary purpose of this check is to provide an assessment of all relevant safety functions. Since the Safety Function Recovery Procedure may be used for a wide variety of events, it is not possible to know in advance which success path will be the primary one for each safety function or which safety function will be most affected. All the safety i
functions are assessed before any other actions are taken.
Operational Considerations:
If any Success Path-1 criteria are not satisfied, then the safety function isinjeopardy.
EPG Step Content: (CEN-152,page10-103, steps 2and3)
Using the Safety Function Status Check, Figure 10-3, identify the status of safety functions. This is done by identifying the success path
{ currently in use for each safety function and then checking the criteria i
for each path.
Assess all safety functions before going to resource assessment trees.

E0PStep3(Continued).
Justification of Differences:
The EPG step identifies which success path is currently in use. However, the basis says it is not possible to know in advance witich success path will be the primary one for each safety function. Therefore it was decided that for the initial assessment, all safety functions would be checked against the Success Path-1 criteria, since this is the preferred success path. This also clearly defines which safety functions are in jeopardy, that is, not meeting the Success Path-1 criteria. This ensures that the operator consults the subprocedure for each safety function in jeopardy to verify alternate success paths are properly implemented instead of assuming the success path is properly implemented just because
! the criteria associated with that success path are being satisfied.

E0P Step Content:
Step 4. Refer to Foldout: Safety Function Status Checklist AND check ALL criteria are being maintained for the success path in use.
Objective:
This step verifies that all safety functions are being satisfied by
- comparing control board parameters to the criteria of the Safety Function Status Checklist for the success path in use.
Basis: (CEN-152,pages10-4and10-10, steps 3and4)
The operator is required to continually verify that all relevant safety functions are being satisfied by comparing control board parameters to the criteria in the Foldout: Safety Function Status Checklist. This ensures that the status of all relevant safety functions is being monitored and that the appropriate success path criteria are being used as the plant lineup and conditions change. Since more than one success path for each safety function may be in use, the criteria associated with the lowest priority success path in use should be used. The criteria which are used to judge the status of each function are organized around the success paths for each function. Since each path uses or may use different technical means of achieving a function, the criteria for judging the success of that path are specific to the technical means.
Also, in order to facilitate operator use, the criteria chosen are para-meters which can be read directly from the control board. Thus, reactiv-e ity control criteria related to CEAs uses CEA bottom lights and that related to borating uses indications of reactor power and boron addition
- rate.
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instru-ment should be used to obtain a particular reading. Safety functions, as specified on Safety Function Status Checklist, shall be continuously l monitored throughout the use of this procedure. ,

Step 5. For each safety function in jeopardy, refer to the appropriate subprocedure AND perform ALL the following Recovery Actions:
Objective:
The objective of this step is to identify available success paths for each safety function in jeopardy, and implement success paths until one is completed, with its associated criteria being satisfied. This step also terminates lower priority success paths as higher priority success paths are implemented with associated criteria being satisfied.
Basis: (CEN-152,pages10-10,10-11,and10-12, steps 5and7)
For each safety function not being satisfied, the operator can identify plant resources or success paths by referring to the resource assessment trees. The resource assessment trees provide information to the operator to assist in a determination of the availability of plant resources to be used to satisfy safety functions. The resource assessment trees provided are structured to show the intended priority (left to right) of implementation of success paths. Note that more than one success path may be employed for each safety function in order to satisfy the criteria of the last path (to the right) in use. Also note that the path with the highest priority is the path which corresponds to current plant conditions (e.g. the ECCS is designed to manage inventory control problems resulting from a LOCA). Each plant resource assessment tree pictorializes all the generic resources available for fulfilling a safety function. Limits have been developed for each component of the success path which permit the operator to interrogate the control board to decide if that success path is available. The operator performs the subprocedure recovery actions for the success paths, to be implemented to satisfy the safety functions in jeopardy.

E0PStep5(Continued).
Basis: (Continued)
The subprocedure recovery actions provide step-by-step operational guidance, criteria for determining the successful control of a safety function, and associated precautions, all of which are necessary to implement the success paths identified on the resource assessment trees.
Each subprocedure contains all the actions necessary to implement success paths recovering control of a jeopardized safety function. Criteria are included for determining the degree of success achieved in the attempt.
Additional guidance is provided which aids the operator in determining the next course of action. For instance, if control of the safety func-tion is achieved, the operator may be instructed to go on to the next safety function in jeopardy. Alternatively, the operator may be told to implement another success path in the case when the current path is inadequate.
Operational Considerations:
Each safety function in jeopardy should be treated one at a time, in order of priority, as they are listed on the Safety Function Status Checklist. On the Resource Assessment Trees, the order of priority for success paths is from left to right in descending order. More than one success path may be implemented at a time. When more than one success path is in use, then the success path criteria to be met are the criteria associated with the lowest priority success path in use.
EPG Step Content: (CEN-152,page10-103, steps 5and7)
For each safety function that is not being satisfied, identify plant resources or success paths which can be used to fulfill them. Refer to Figures 10-4 through 10-9.
Perform the appropriate recovery action guidelines associated with the identified success paths.

Step 6. When ALL safety functions are being controlled by satisfactorily maintaining the criteria associated with the implemented success path, go to OP-902-000, EMERGENCY ENTRY PROCEDURE, Section D.
Diagnostics.
Objective:
The objective of this step is to diagnose and go to an optimal recovery procedure, if possible, and cooldown.
Basis: (CEN-152,page10-12, step 8)
When all safety functions are satisfied, the operator shifts to the Emergency Entry Procedure and attempts to systeutically evaluate the plant status to determine, if possible, what the cause of the emergency was, what course of action to take (e.g. proceed to cold shutdown) and what further emergency operating guidance is available.
Operational Considerations:
NA EPG Step Content: (CEN-152,page10-103, step 8)
Once each safety function is being satisfied, refer to Long Term Actions.
Justification of Differences:
The EPG Long Term Actions section was not used in the E0P. Most of the actions called for in the Long Term Actions section are already covered in the General Instructions. The only action not covered is deciding whether to cooldown. This decision will be made by the Technical Support !
Center and the shift supervisor, since it is dependent upon a variety of l conditions which include Emergency Plan considerations. By our Adminis- I rative Procedures the Technical Support Center will be manned by 30-minute responders.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to check the criterion associated with satisfactorily completing this success path.
Basis:
The basis for each individual criterion is given in Section 2.0 of the technical guide. The criteria are used to judge the status of each safety function. Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can be used to . control that safety function, the criteria which are used to judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use different technical means of achieving a function, the criteria for judging the success of that path are specific to the technical means.
Also, in order to facilitate operator use, the criteria chosen are para-meters which can be read directly from the control board.

Objective: l The objective of this step is to stop reactor coolant pump operation when pressurizer pressure 11621 psia following an SIAS or when component cooling water is lost.
Basis:
This step serves to prevent continued reactor coolant pump operation when reactor coolant system pressure is $1621 psia during a Loss of Coolant Accident. Continued reactor coolant pump operation at reactor coolant system pressures below 1621 psia during a Loss of Coolant Accident may result in more severe reactor coolant system conditions. When component cooling water is lost to the reactor coolant pumps, damage to pump components could occur if the reactor coolant pumps are not secured.
Operational Considerations:
Since other events could cause rapid depressurization, anytime pressurizer pressure drops below 1621 psia following an SIAS, all reactor coolant pump operation is terminated. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Objective:
This step evaluates certain criteria associated with terminating safety injection flow.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-21, step 3)
If an SIAS has been initiated and the SIS is operating, it must continue to operate at full capacity until SIS termination criteria are met.
Early termination may be desirable when the criteria are met to preclude PTS situations or HPSI pump damage (e.g., shaft seals).
Operational Considerations:
Below 1000 psia, subcooling margin shall be determined by subtracting hot leg temperature from Pressurizer Temperature Water (TI 101). Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

If the Technical Specification shutdown margin is achieved, the ECCS may be throttled or stopped one train at a time if all of the following conditions are satisfied:
Justification of Differences:
The EPG step was divided into two steps, one step covering termination criteria and the other covering termination direction.
Control board indications of subcriticality were used instead of shutdown margin due to the time considerations of sampling reactor coolant system boron and calculating shutdown margin. This is more consistent with the success path criteria and the emergency boration termination criteria. ,

Step 5. IF, ALL Safety Injection termination criteria (step 4) are satis-fied, THEN throttle OR stop Safety Injection FLOW one train at a time AND stop Charging pumps as necessary to control Pres- -

Objective:
The step maintains pressurizer level and prevents solid water operation.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-21, step 3)
If the criteria are all met, the operator may either terminate or throttle the SIS. The operator may decide to throttle rather than terminate if SIS is to be used to control pressurizer level or plant pressure. Termination of SIS should be sequenced by stopping one pump at a time while observing the termination criteria.
Operational Considerations:
Solid water operation is permissible only when reactor coolant system
, subcooling margin is <28*F. To throttle cold leg injection valves, the switch must be taken to the "MORE" position which places them in SIAS override.

If SIAS has occurred, the operator needs to read the actions associated with it. Therefore this step directs the operator to the appropriate success path.

Step 2. Verify Pressurizer Level Control System is maintaining OR restor-ing Pressurizer level to 33L Objective:
This step verifies pressurizer level control system is functioning to maintain or restore pressurizer level.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-26, step 1)
The PLCS is verified to be functioning to restore pressurizer level to the hot zero power band. If not, charging and letdown are operated manually to restore and maintain pressurizer level.
Limiting letdown while maximizing charging flow may be adequate to make up an insufficient RCS inventory condition. Conversely, maximizing letdown and minimizing charging flow may suffice in lowering a high RCS inventory condition.
In this mode, it is necessary that the operator check that pressurizer level is within the hot zero power range and to verify adequate RCS subcooling to verify that RCS inventory is being controlled. If pres-surizer level is not being maintained automatically, the operator has an alternate means of control by manually operating the charging pumps i
and letdown flowrate to regulate inventory into and out of the RCS.
Operational Considerations:

Basis: (Continued) d) The [RV head vent system] may be operated to clear voids in the RV head. This system will clear gas voids withint minutes. If the RV head void is not cleared quickly with the [RV head vent system],
steam voiding should be suspected. The best method for condensing steam voids or for removing noncondensible gases from the S/G tube bundle is to run RCPs (if available). If that is not possible, cooling the generator by feeding and draining or by steaming will also be effective for condensing steam voids in the tube bundle.
Cooling the steam generators will not have an effect on nonconden-sibles trapped in the tube bundle. A buildup of noncondensibles in the tube bundles will not hinder natural circulation even with a large number of the tubes blocked. This is because of the small amount of steam generator heat transfer area required for the removal of decay heat.

Step 1. IF Pressurizer pressure drops to 11684 psia OR Containment pressure rises to >17.4 psia, THEN verify SIAS occurs as follows:
Objective:
The objective of this step is to verify SIAS occurs when required.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-31, step 1)
SIS operation must be verified if pressurizer pressure decreases to 1684 psia or if containment pressure increases to 17.4 psia. Ifsafetyinjec-tion system operation has not commenced automatically when RCS pressure is below 1684 psia, it must be manually actuated. This action allows the RWSP inventory to discharge into the RCS. An insufficient RCS inventory may be associated with a loss of coolant accident, a steam generator tube rupture, a control system malfunction or an excessive heat removal event.
Of course, operation of the SIS also affects RCS pressure. When operating the SIS the operator must maintain or restore pressure to within the limits of Attachment 5: Post-Accident Pressure and Temperature Limits Graph unless 28 F subcooling cannot be maintained. If 28"F subcooling cannot be maintained, the SIS is kept running for core cooling considera-tions regardless of pressurizer level.
Operational Considerations:
Hot leg temperatures and cold leg temperatures may be influenced by safety injectionflow. Multiple indications and core temperatures should be used to determine the reactor coolant system temperature. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Objective: I The step maintains pressurizer level and prevents solid water operation.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-33, step 3)
If the criteria are all met, the operator may either terminate or throttle the SIS. The operator may decide to throttle rather than terminate if SIS is to be used to control pressurizer level or plant pressure. Termination of SIS should be sequenced by stopping one pump at a time while observing the termination criteria.
Operational Considerations:
Solid water operation is permissible only when reactor coolant system subcooling margin is <28"F. To throttle cold leg injection valves, the switch must be taken to the "MORE" position which places them in SIAS override.

If the RV void is not cleared quickly with the [RV head vent system], steam voiding should be suspected. The best method for condensing steam voids or for reeving noncondensible gases from the S/G tube bundle is to run RCPs (if available). If that is not possible, cooling the generator by feeding and draining or by steaming will also be effec-tive for condensing steam voids in the tube bundle. Cooling the steam generators will not have an effect on noncondensibles trapped in the tube bundle. A buildup of noncondensibles in the tube bundles will not hinder natural circulation even with a large number of the tubes blocked. This is because of the small amount of steam generator heat transfer area required for the removal of decay heat.

Objective:
This step ensures that an RAS occurs to provide a suction source to the safetyinjectionpumps.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-33, step 5)
If the Refueling Water Storage Pool level falls to 10%, initiation of recirculation should be verified. Recirculation is actuated in order to maintain a continuous flow of safety injection fluid to the RCS and a continuous flow of containment spray water. The operator should be cautioned against prematurely initiating an RAS. An inadequate amount of level in the safety injection sump may cause air binding of safety injectionpumpsandloosingbothheatremovalloops.

Step 21. IFF RAS occurs, THEN on Attachment 4: HPSI and CS Pump Flow, record the HPSI AND Containment Spray pumps flow at the follow-ing time intervals:
Objective:
This step monitors the high pressure safety injection and containment spray pumps for performance requirements.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-36, step 8)

Step 22. IF HPSI flow is NOT >25 gpm per operating HPSI pump, THEN sequentially perform the following until operating HPSI pump flow >25 gpm:
Objective:
This step ensures that each operating high pressure safety injection pump has a minimum flow >25 gpm.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-36, step 8)
After the switch to recirculation, the HPSI flows are monitored in order to ensure that the HPSI miniflow requirements for pump protection are met to avert any possible permanent HPSI pump damage. If they are not met, the operator should turn off the charging pumps one at a time until the miniflow requirements are met. If they are still not met with all the charging pup off and two HPSI pumps are operating, the operator turns off the HPSI pump with the lower flow. One HPSI pump should be left operating at all times, unless the criteria of step 4 are met.

Step 23. Between two hours AND four hours post-LOCA, realign Safety Injection pumps discharge for equal flow to the Hot Legs AND Cold Legs as follows:
Objective:
This step aligns safety injection pump discharge to both hot and cold leg injection.
Basis:
Simultaneous hot and cold leg injection is used for both small break and large break Loss of Coolant Accidents at 2-4 hours after the start of the l Loss of Coolant Accident. In this mode, the high pressure safety injec-l tion pumps discharge lines are realigned so that the total injection flow 4
is divided equally between the hot and cold legs. Simultaneousinjection 4
into the hot and cold legs is used as the mechanism to prevent the precipi-tation of boric acid in the reactor vessel following a break that is too large to allow the reactor coolant system to refill. Injecting to both sides of the reactor vessel ensures that fluid from the reactor vessel 4
(when the boric acid is being concentrated) flows out the break regardless
! of the break location and is replenished with a dilute solutiun of borated water from the other side of the reactor vessel. The action is taken no
- sooner than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> after the Loss of Coolant Accident since the fluid injected to the hot leg may be entrained in the steam being released from the core and hence possibly diverted from reaching the reactor vessel.
After 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, the core decay heat has dropped sufficiently so that there is insufficient steam velocity to entrain the fluid being injected to the hot leg. The action is taken no later than 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> after the Loss of
( Coolant Accident in order to ensure that the buildup of boric acid is i
terminated well before the potential for boric acid precipitation occurs. .
Even though the action is required only for large breaks, it is taken for '
any Loss of Coolant Accident so that the operator need not be required to '
_ distinguish between large and small breaks so early in the transient.

Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-4, step 3)
The basis for each individual criterion is given in Section 2.0 of the technical guide. The criteria are used to judge the status of each safety function. Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can be used to control that safety function, the criteria which are used to judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success -
paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use different technical means of achieving a function, the criteria for judging the success of that path are specific to the t;;hnical means.

Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-4, step 3)
The basis for each individual criterion is given in Section 2.0 of the technical guide. The criteria are used to judge the status of each safety function. Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can be used to control that safety function, the criteria which are used to
, judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use different technical means of achieving a function, the criteria for judg-ing the success of that path are specific to the technical means.

Step 2. Verify Charging pumps aligned to take suction from one of the following sources as follows:
Objective:
This step ensures the charging pumps have an adequate suction source.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-42, step 2)
Adequate suction sources to the charging pumps are verified. If neces-sary, the VCT, boric acid storage tanks and RWSP may be used. The source (s) of water for use in controlling RCS inventory depend on the total amount of fluid necessary for make up to the RCS and the time frame over which the fluid must be introduced. The volume control tank is the primary source of fluid for RCS makeup. If necessary, for the cases where RCS inventory losses are being incurred, the contents of the boric acid makeup tanks and the refueling water tank may be used as backup sources of makeup water.
Operational Considerations:
If SIAS has occurred, then the charging pumps suction may be aligned to both boric acid makeup tanks. If volume control tank level <6%, then the volume control tank cannot be used to supply the charging pumps.

Step 3. IF SIAS OR CIAS has occurred, THEN place Letdown in service as follows:
Objective:
This step places letdown back in service, following an SIAS or CIAS, in preparation for taking the pressurizer solid with the charging pumps.
Basis:
i Since pressurizer pressure is greater than the shutoff head of the high pressure safety injection pumps, the pressurizer is taken solid using charging pumps. Since the charging pumps are positive displacement pumps, letdown is used to regulate pressure when the pressurizer is solid. This provides smoother control of pressure and also prevents having to cycle charging pumps to maintain pressure. A charging pump may be left running instead and letdown is throttled to maintain pressure. Since SIAS and CIAS isolates letdown, this step will place letdown back in service using the override capability of the valves. This success path is only used if pressurizer pressure is >1385 psia. If pressurizer pressure is <1385 psia _
the high pressure safety injection pumps should be used to take the pres-surizer solid which is covered in the next success path.
Operational Considerations:
Letdown should not be placed in service unless pressurizer level is being maintained >28%. If CSAS has occurred, then letdown should not be placed in service, since component cooling water will not be supplied to the i
letdown heat exchanger. Where multiple indications for one parameter l exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Objective:
This step takes the pressurizer solid to restore pressurizer pressure.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-42, step 1)
Raising pressurizer level with a steam bubble in the pressurizer will tend to increase pressure. If pressurizer heaters are not available the pres-surizer may be taken solid to control pressure with the charging pumps.
This should not be done unless 28"F minimum subcooling cannot be maintained.
Operational Considerations:
Solid water operation is permissible only when reactor coolant system subcooling margin <28*F. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.
EPG Step Content: (CEN-152, page 10-134, step 1)
Verify that the PLCS is automatically maintaining or restoring pressurizer level. If not, manually operate charging and letdown to restore and main-tain pressurizer level. The operator may take the pressurizer solid if
[20]*F subcooling cannot be maintained.
- Justification of Differences:
! The E0P step addresses taking the pressurizer solid. It does not mention pressurizer level control since this was done in inventory control. The step was expanded to provide explicit instructions for taking the pres-surizer solid.

Step 1. IF Pressurizer pressure drops to <1684 psia OR Containment pres-sure rises to >17.4 psia, THEN verify SIAS occurs as follows:
Objective:
i The objective of this step is to verify SIAS occurs when required.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-44, step 1)
ECCS operation must be verified if pressurizer pressure decreases to 1684 psia or if containment pressure increases to 17.4 psia. If safety injec-tion system operation has not commenced automatically on high containment pressure 17.4 psia or when RCS pressure is below 1684 psia, it must be j manually actuated. This action restores inventory so that pressure can be controlled by use of either pressurizer heaters and spray or by using the discharge head of the ECCS pumps to control pressure.
Operational Considerations:
Hot leg temperatures and cold leg temperatures may be influenced by safety injection flow. Multiple indications and core temperatures should be used to determine the reactor coolant system temperature. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.
EPG Step Content: (CEN-152, page 10-136, step 1)

Step 2. E either of the following conditions occur, THEN stop ALL Reactor Coolant Pumps:

The objective of this step is to stop reactor coolant pump operation when pressurizer pressure 11621 psia following a SIAS or when component cooling water is lost.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-44, step 2)
This step serves to prevent continued RCP operation when RCS pressure is 11621 psia during a Loss of Coolant Accident. Continued RCP operation at RCS pressures below 1621 psia during a Loss of Coolant Accident may result in more severe RCS conditions. When component cooling water is lost to the reactor coolant pumps, damage to pump components could occur if the RCPs are not secured.
I Operational Considerations:
Since other events could cause rapid depressurization, anytime pressurizer pressure drops below 1621 psia following a SIAS, all reactor coolant pump operation is terminated. Where multiple indications for one parameter
!' exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.
EPG Step Content: (CEN-152, page 10-136, step 2)
If pressurizer pressure decreases to (1300 psia) following an SIAS, stop all reactor coolant pumps.
Justification of Differences:
Loss of component cooling water to reactor coolant pumps is added to this step because component cooling water is isolated to the reactor coolant pumps when an SIAS actuation occurs. ,

Step 5. IF ALL Safety Injection termination criteria (step 4) are satis-fled, THEN throttle OR stop Safety Injection FLOW one train at a time AND stop Charging pumps as necessary to control Pressurizer level 33% to 60%.
Objective:
The step maintains pressurizer level and prevents solid water operation, unless 28'F subcooling margin cannot be maintained. If 28 F subcooling margin cannot be maintained, then the pressurizer is taken solid with high pressure safety injection pumps.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-46, step 3)
If the criteria are all met, the operator may either terminate or throttle the SIS. The operator may decide to throttle rather than terminate if SIS is to be used to control pressurizer level or plant pressure. Termination of SIS should be sequenced by stopping one pump at a time while observing the termination criteria.
Operational Considerations:
Solid water operation is permissible only when reactor coolant system subcooling margin is <28*F. To throttle cold leg injection valves, the switch must be taken to the "MORE" position which places them in SIAS override.

Step 14. IF Refueling Water Storage Pool level drops to 10%, THEN verify that Recirculation Actuation Signal occurs AND check ALL the following:
Objective:
This step ensures that RAS occurs to provide a suction source to the safety injection pumps.
Basis: (CEN-152, pagr 10-46, step 5)
If the Refueling Water Storage Pool level falls to 10%, initiation of recirculation should be verified. Recirculation is actuated in order to maintain a continuous flow of safety injection fluid to the RCS and a continuous flow of containment spray water. The operator should be cautioned against prematurely initiating an RAS. An inadequate amount of level in the safety injection sump may cause air binding of safety injec-tion pumps and loosing both heat removal loops.
Operational Considerations:
When RAS occurs and safety injection sump level is <10 feet, safety injection pumps should be monitored for potential air binding. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Step 18. Between two hours AND four hours post- LOCA , realign Safety Injection pumps discharge for equal flow to the Hot Legs AND Cold Legs as follows:
Objective:
This step aligns safety injection pump discharge to both hot and cold leg injection.
Basis:
Simultaneous hot and cold leg injection is used for both small break and large break Loss of Coolant Accidents at 2-4 hours af ter the start of the Loss of Coolant Accident. In this mode, the high pressure safety injec-tion pumps discharge lines are realigned so that the total injection flow is divided equally between the hot and cold legs. Simultaneous injection into the hot and cold legs is used as the mechanism to prevent the precip-itation of boric acid in the reactor vessel following a break that is too large to allow the reactor coolant system to refill. Injecting to both sides of the reactor vessel ensures that fluid from the reactor vessel (when the boric acid is being concentrated) flows out the break regardless of the break location and is replenished with a dilute solution of borated water from the other side of the reactor vessel. The action is taken no sooner than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> af ter the Loss of Coolant Accident since the -fluid injected to the hot leg may be entrained in the steam being released from the core and hence possibly diverted from reaching the reactor vessel.
After 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, the core decay heat has dropped sufficiently so. that there is insufficient steam velocity to entrain the fluid being injected to the hot leg. The action is taken no later than 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> after the Loss of Coolant Accident in order to ensure that the buildup of boric acid is terminated well before the potential for boric acid precipitation occurs. ,
Even though the action is required only for large breaks, it is taken for ]
any Loss of Coolant Accident so that the operator need not be required to l distinguish between large and small breaks so early in the transient.

Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can be used to control that safety function, the criteria which are used to judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use different technical means of achieving a function, the criteria for
] judging the success of that path are specific to the technical means.

Step 10. Commence a Plant cooldown by EITHER of the following:
Objective:
The objective of this step is to cooldown the plant to effect a depressurization.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-51, step 4)
RCS depressurization should occur by feeding the steam generators with main or auxiliary feedwater and dumping steam to the condenser via the turbine bypass system. If the condenser or turbine bypass system is not available, steam should be discharged through the atmospheric dump valves.
The use of ataiospheric dump valves may have the potential for an unmoni-
! tored release of activity to the environment. If it is suspected that a
) steam generator (s) has tube leaks, then depressurization should be per-formed using the unaffected or least affected generator.
Operational Considerations:
Cooldown rate shall be limited for reactor coolant system <100*F/hr and for pressurizer <200*F/hr. If a steam generator is isolated -due to activity in the steam plant, then the use of the atmospheric dump valve on the isolated steam generator should be minimized.

Step 11. During Plant cooldown, allow Pressurizer level to drop as follows:
Objective:
This step allows pressurizer level to drop during the cooldown which reduces pressurizer pressure.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-50, step 2)
RCS inventory is controlled so as to permit pressurizer level to drop during RCS fluid contraction. This drop in level results in pressurizer bubble decompression which in turn results in RCS depressurization. It is also possible to cool the pressurizer gradually by filling the pressurizer with cooler loop fluid by charging to the loop. The level is then allowed to drop due to cooldown contraction and then refilled with cooler loop fluid. Repeated fillings will cool the pressurizer metal and steam bubble resulting in gradual depressurization.
Operational Considerations:
Minimum acceptable pressurizer level is 7L Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.
EPG Step Content: (CEN-152, page 10-142, step 2)

Step 14. IF BOTH Main Feedwater AND Emergency Feedwater are lost, THEN perform the following:
Objective:
This step provides guidance for a total loss of feedwater.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-52, step 6)
If all feedwater is lost (both main and emergency) certain activities should be performed to keep the plant in a stable condition. These activities are listed below, a) Stop all RCPs b) Any cooldown is stopped to minimize steam discharge and conserve S/G inventories.
c) If in operation, the steam generator blowdown system, secondary sampling system or any other nonvital secondary discharge must be secured. Until feedwater is reestablished, the steam generator water inventories must be conserved.
d) The operator should attempt to restore the operation of the main or auxiliary feedwater system to provide a primary decay heat sink for a controlled depressurization to meet the success criteria of this recovery action guideline.
A moderate rate of increase in steam generator water level is suffi-
- cient to restore S/G 1evel. If the refill rate is too fast, excessive cooldown of the RCS and shrinkage of RCS inventory may result.
Consequently, pressurizer level may fall below that required to l
maintain a bubble for pressure control. An adequate feed rate for restoring steam generator level is determined by operating experience.

The basis for each individual criterion is given in Section 2.0 of the technical guide. The criteria are used to judge the status of each safety function. Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can be used to control that safety function, the criteria which are used to judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use different technical means of achieving a function, the criteria for judging the success of that path are specific to the technical means.

Step 5. Check AND continuously monitor Natural Circulation by ALL the following:
Objective:
The objective cf this step is to check the conditions that indicate natural circulation flow exists.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-56, step 3)
If all RCP operation is terminated and when inventory and pressure are controlled, natural circulation is monitored by heat removal via at least one steam generator. Natural circulation flow should occur within 5-15 minutes after the RCPs were tripped if there is adequata inventory in the RCS. The RCS temperature response during natural circulation will usually be slow (5-15 minutes) as compared to a normal forced flow system response time of 6-12 seconds, since the coolant loop cycle time will be signifi-cantly larger.
When single phase natural circulation is established in at least one loop the RCS indicates all of the following conditions:
a) Loop 4T (TH - T )C less than normal full power AT; b) Cold leg temperatures constant or decreasing; c) Hot leg temperatures stable (i.e. not steadily increasing) or slowly decreasing; d) No abnormal differences between THRTDs and core exit thermocouples.
Hot Leg RTD temperature should be consistent with the core exit ther-mocouples. Adequate natural circulation flow ensures that core exit thermocouples temperatures will be approximately equal to the hot leg RTDs temperature within the bounds of the instrument's inaccuracies.

Objective:
The objective of this stap is to ensure that the isolated steam generator level is maintained 77% to 94% wide range.
Basis:
By ensuring the isolated steam generator level is being controlled, overfilling should be prevented. If overfilled, then the steam generator steam space and the main steam piping to the main steam isolation valves filling could present additional problems. Through use of the blowdown systems as the preferred means, the spread of contamination is minimized.

Therefore, the setpoint of MSIS must be manually reset (lowered) as the cooldown progresses to ensure that automatic engineered sateguards protection remains available until the reactor coolant system is cooled down and depressurized.

Step 13. Determine the optimum AT to be maintained between Steam Genera-tors during cooldown as indicated on STEAM GENERATOR OUTLET TEMP (MS-ITR-301A/B) recorder. Refer to Attachment 7: Steam Gener-ators Optimum AT Curve.
Objective:
The objective of this step is to provide the temperature difference allowed between steam generators when utilizing circulation for cooldown of the reactor coolant system.
Basis:
Natural circulation will occur in the isolated steam generator even if its temperature is slightly above reactor hot leg temperature. As the AT increases, more heat is tranferred to the primary coolant in the isolated steam generator, but natural circulation flow decreases. The optimum AT between steam generators to achieve maximum heat transfer is given in Attachment 7. Maintain this AT by bleeding steam from the steam generator not isolated, and cooling the isolated steam generator according to step 15.
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instru-ment should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Objective:
This step ensures that the isolated steam generator is cooled down while the reactor coolant system is being cooled down.
Basis:
With no reactor coolant pumps operating, there usually will be litt1e flow through the isolated steam generator, which would limit the plant cooldown rat'e. The isolated steam generator may be cooled, if necessary, to accelerate plant cooldown.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to cool down the plant to effect a depressurization.
Basis:
An orderly cooldown and depressurization is resumed with the steam gener-ator not isolated. These methods are presented in order, with the most preferred method listed first, to minimize radiological releases.
Operational Considerations:
Cooldown rate shall be limited for reactor coolant system 150 F/hr and for pressurizer 1100*F/hr. If maintaining the optimum AT slows down the cooldown rate of the isolated steam generator, then a slightly lower AT should be maintained.

Step 17. During Plant cooldown, allow Pressurizer level to drop as follows:
Objective:
This step allows pressurizer level to drop during the cooldown which reduces pressurizer pressure.
t Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-55, step 2) i RCS inventory is controlled so as to permit pressurizer level to drop during RCS fluid contraction. This drop in level results in pressurizer bubble decompression which in turn results in RCS depressurization. It is also possible to cool the pressurizer gradually by filling the pres-surizer with cooler loop fluid by charging to the loop. The level is then allowed to drop due to cooldown contraction and then refilled with cooler loop fluid. Repeated fillings will cool the pressurizer metal and steam bubble resulting in gradual depressurization.
Operational Considerations:
Minimum acceptable pressurizer level is 7%. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to ensure the reactor coolant system employs the preferred means of coolant circulation.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-59 thru 10-61, step 8)
During forced flow cooldowns of the RCS, with one steam generator isolat-ed, sufficient reverse (secondary to primary) heat transfer occurs to maintain the isolated steam generator at the same relative temperature as the operating RCS loop. However, with no RCPs operating natural '
circulation flow through the isolated steam generator and RCS loop will stop, leaving those components in a hot stagnant condition.
This condition by itself will not necessarily affect core cooling via natural circulation in the unisolated steam generator. As long as RCS pressure control, RCS inventory control, and RCS heat removal are properly maintained in the operating loop, sufficient natural circulation flow will .
be maintained through the core and operating loop.
The preferred method of cooling an isolated steam generator is to start any RCP, if one is available. Forced reactor coolant circulation through an isolated, steam generator will provide adequate heat transfer to main-tain the isolated steam generator's temperature approximately the same as the operating steam generator's temperature.

Objective:
This step provides guidance for a total loss of feedwater.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-58, step 7)
If all feedwater is lost (both main and emergency) certain activities '
should be performed to keep the plant in a stable condition. These activities are listed below.
a) Stop all RCPs b) Any cooldown is stopped to minimize steam discharge and conserve S/G inventories.
c) If in operation, the system generator blowdown system, secondary sampling system or any other nonvital secondary discharge must be secured. Until feedwater is reestablished, the steam generator water inventories must be conserved.
d) The operator should attempt to restor'e the operation of the main or auxiliary feedwater system to provide a primary decay heat sink for a controlled depressurization to meet the success criteria of this recovery action guideline.
A moderate rate of increase in steam generator water level is suffi-cient to restore S/G level. If the refill rate is too fast, excessive .
cooldown of the RCS and shrinkage of RCS inventory may result.
Consequently, pressurizer level may fall below that required to maintain a bubble for pressure control. An adequate feed rate for restoring steam generator level is determined by operating experience.

Objective:
This step maintains temperature and pressure within the limits of Attach-ment 5: Post-Accident Pressure and Temperature Limits Graph.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-67, step 3)
RCS and core heat removal should be performed by feeding at least one steam generator with main or auxiliary feedwater and dumping steam to the condenser via the turbine bypass system. If the condenser or turbine bypass system is not available, the next order of priority for dischar0ing i steam would be to use the atmospheric dump valves.
The use of atmospheric dump valves may have the potential for release of
- activity to the environment. If it is suspected that a steam generator (s) 4 may be affected by a tube rupture, as indicated by area radiation monitor and/or other symptoms, S/G cooling should be performed using the unaf-fected or least affected generator.
Operational Considerations:
Subcooling margin shall be maintained 28*F to 200*F. Below 1000 psia, subcooling margin shall be termined by subtracting hot leg temperature from Pressurizer Temperature Water (TI 101). Cooldown rate shall be limited for reactor coolant system <50*F/hr and for pressurizer <100'F/hr.
If a steam generator is isolated due to activity in the steam plant, then -
the use of the atmospheric dump valve on the isolated steam generator should be minimized. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Step 17. Evaluate Condensate inventory. Refer to Attachment 11: Feed-water Required for Heat Removal to Tc _(Final) versus Tc (Initial), AND Attachment 12: Feedwater Capacity versus Time Remaining to Initiate Shutdown Cooling.
Objective:
This step evaluates the available condensate inventory and determines the amount of time the operator may remain at present conditions before needing to commence a plant cooldown.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-69, step 6)
The available condensate inventory should be monitored and replenished from available sources as necessary to continually provide a source for a secondary heat sink. Example of alternate sources of condensate are nonseismic tanks, fire mains, lake water supplies, potable tanks, etc.
Plant specific alternate sources of feedwater should be identified and cited in the plant specific procedure.

Step 19. IF BOTH Main Feedwater AND Emergency Feedwater are lost, THEN perform the following:
Objective:
This step provides guidance for a total loss of feedwater.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-68, step 5)
If all feedwater is lost (both main and emergency) certain activities should be performed to keep the plant in a stable condition. These activities are listed below, a) Stop all RCPs b) Any cooldown is stopped to minimize steam discharge and conserve S/G inventories.
f c) If in operation, the steam generator blowdown system, secondary sampling system or any other nonvital secondary discharge must be secured. Until feedwater is reestablished, the steam generator water
, inventories must be conserved.
d) The operator should attempt to restore the operation of the main or auxiliary feedwater system to provide a primary decay heat sink for a controlled depressurization to meet the success criteria of this recovery action guideline.
A moderate rate of increase in steam generator water level is suffi-cient to restore S/G 1evel. If the refill rate is too fast, excessive cooldown of the RCS and shrinkage of RCS inventory may result.
Consequently, pressurizer level may fall below that required to
- maintain a bubble for pressure control. An adequate feed rate for restoring steam generator level is determined by operating experience.

Basis: (Continued) e) If both main and auxiliary feedwater cannot be restored, all plant specific sources of feedwater which could be made available to replace steam generator boil-off should be implemented. Examples of alternate sources of feedwater are fire pumps, condensate pumps, portable pumps, etc. Nhen developing plant specific procedures, alternate sources of feedwater should be identified and their use should be indicated in the procedures. Guidelines on steam geneator depressurization should be developed for those cases when the operator is relying on low pressure sources of feedwater as a backup feedwater supply.
Operational Considerations: '
Feedwater should not be restored to an empty steam generator. If both i steam generators are empty, then feedwater should be restored to one steam generator only.

The basis for each individual criterion is given in Section 2.0 of the technical guide. The criteria are used to judge the status of each safety function. Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can be used to control that safety function, the criteria which are used to judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use j different technical means of achieving a function, the criteria for judging the success of that path are specific to the technical means.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to ensure that the steam generator level is maintained in at least one steam generator.
Basis:
When the steam generators are being used for heat removal from the reactor coolant system, main or emergency feedwater has to be supplied to the steam generators to ensure a heat sink.
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instru-ment should be used to obtain a particular reading. If the automatic function is not operating properly, then systems should be placed in manual. Systems in manual should be monitored for proper operation.

Step 12. Check AND continuously monitor Natural Circulation by ALL the
.following:
Objective:
The objective of this step is to check the conditions that indicate natural circulation flow exists.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-71, step 1)
If all RCP operation is terminated and when inventory and pressure are controlled, natural circulation is monitored by heat removal via at least one steam generator. Natural circulation flow should occur within 5-15 minutes after the RCPs were tripped if there is adequate inventory in the RCS.
The RCS temperature response during natural circulation will usually be slow (5-15 minutes) as compared to a normal forced flow system response time of 6-12 seconds, since the coolant loop cycle time will be signifi-cantly larger.
When single phase natural circulation is established in at least one loop the RCS indicates all of the following conditions:
a) Loop AT (TH - T )C less than normal full power AT; o) Cold leg temperatures constant or decreasing; c) Hot leg temperatures stable (i.e. not steadily increasing) ,or slowly decreasing; d) No abnormal differences between THRTDs and core exit thermocouples.
Hot leg RTD temperature should ba consistent with the core exit thermocouples. Adequate natural circulation flow ensures that core exit <nermocouples temperatures will be approximately equal to the hot leg RTDs temperature within the bounds of the instrument's inac-curacies. An abnormal difference between HT and the CETs is greater e than [10*F].

Objective:
This step maintains temperature and pressure within the limits of Attach- ,
ment 5: Post-Accident Pressure and Temperature Limits Graph.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-72, step 2)
RCS and core heat removal should be performed by feeding at least one steam generator with main or auxiliary feedwater and dumping steam to the condenser via the turbine bypass system. If the condenser or turbine bypass system is not available, the next order of priority for discharging steam would be to use the att.mspheric dump valves.
The use of atmospheric dump valves may have the potential for release of activity to the environment. If it is suspected that a steam generator (s) may be affected by a tube rupture, as indicated by area radiation monitor and/or other symptoms, S/G cooling should be performed using the unaf-fected or least affected generator.
Operational Considerations:
Subcooling margin shall be maintained 28*F to 200*F. Cooldown rate shall be limited for reactor coolant system <50*F/hr and for pressurizer
<100*F/hr. If a steam generator is isolated due to activity in the steam plant, then the use of the atmospheric dump valve on the isolated steam generator should be minimized.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to ensure that the isolated steam generator level is maintained 77% to 94% wide range.
Basis:
By ensuring the isolated steam generator level is being controlled, overfilling should be prevented. If overfilled, then the steh ganerator steam space and the main steam piping to the main steam isolation valve filling could present additional problems. Through use of the blowdown system as the preferred means, the spread of contamination is minimized.
If the blowdown system is not available, then steaming the affected steam generator will minimize radioactive release through the steam generator safeties. The minimum level ensures that the steam generator tubes are covered with water.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to check the conditions that indicate natural circulation flow exists.
Basis:
During cooldown and depressurization to shutdown cooling initiating conditions, indicatior.s of natural circulation have to be verified. When single phase circulation is established in at least one loop, the reactor coolant system indicates all of the following:

Step 18. Determine the optimum AT to be maiistained between Steam Gener-ators during cooldown as indicated on STEAM GENERATOR OUTLET TEMP (MS-ITR-301A/B) recorder. Refer to Attachment 7: Steam Generators Optimus AT Curve.
Objective:
The objective of this step is to provide the temperature difference allowed between steam generators when utilizing circulation for cooldown of the reactor coolant system.
Basis:
Natural circulation will occur in the isolated steam generator even if its temperature is slightly above reactor hot leg temperature. As the AT increases, more heat is transferred to the primary coolant in the isolated steam generator, but natural circulation flow decreases. The optimum AT between steam generators to achieve maximum heat transfer is given in Attachment 7. Maintain this AT by bleeding steam from the steam generator not isolated, and cooling the isolated steam generator as per step 20.

Step 27. If BOTH Main Feedwater AND Emergency Feedwater are lost, THEN perform the following:
Objective:
This step provides guidance for a total loss of feedwater.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-75, step 6)
If all feedwater is lost (both main and emergency) certain activities should be performed to keep the plant in a stable condition. These activities are listed below.
a) Stop all RCPs b) Any cooldown is stopped to minimize steam discharge and conserve S/G inventories, c) If in operation, the steam generator blowdown system, secondary sampling system or any other nonvital secondary discharge must be secured. Until feedwater is reestablished, the steam generator water inventories must be conserved.
d) The operator should attempt to restore the operation of the main or auxiliary feedwater system to provide a primary decay heat sink for a controlled depressurization to meet the success criteria of this recovery action guideline.
A moderate rate of increase in steam generator water level is suffi-cient to restore S/G 1evel. If the refill rate is too fast, excessive-cooldown of the RCS and shrinkage of RCS inventory may result.
Consequently, pressurizer level may fall below that required to maintain a bubble for pressure control. An adequate feed rate for restoring steam generator level is determined by operating experience.

Step 1. IF_ Pressurizer pressure drops to <1684 psia OR Containment pressure rises to ,>17.4 psia, THEN verify SIAS occurs as follows:
Objective:
i The objective of this step is to verify SIAS occurs when required.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-79, step 2)
ECCS operation must be verified if pressurizer pressure decreases to 1684 psia or if containment pressure increased to 17.4 psia. Ifsafetyinjec-tion system operation has not commenced automatically when RCS pressure is below 1684 psia, it must be manually actuated. This action allows the RWT inventory to discharge into the RCS. An insufficient RCS inventory may be associated with a loss of coolant accident, a steam generator tube rup-ture, a control system malfunction or an excessive heat removal event.
Safety injection system flow rate will follow the RCS pressure according to the ECCS delivery curves. The SIS and charging flowrate should be check and maximized relative to RCS pressure to enhance RCS inventory
, replenishment and/or core heat removal.
Operational Considerations:
Hot leg temperatures and cold leg temperatures may be influenced by safety injection flow. Multiple indications and core temperatures should be used to determine the reactor coolant system temperature. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Step 2. E either of the following conditions occurs, THEN stop ALL Reactor Coolant Pumps:
Objective:
The objective of this step is to stop reactor coolant pump operation when pressurizer pressure $1621 psia following an SIAS or when component cooling water is lost.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-79, step 1)
This step serves to prevent continued RCP operation when RCS pressure is 11621 psia during a Loss of Coolant Accident. Continued RCP operation at RCS pressures below 1621 psia during a Loss of Coolant Accident may result in more severe RCS conditions. When component cooling water is lost to the reactor coolant pumps, damage to pump components could occur if the RCPs are not secured.
Operational Considerations:
Since other events could cause rapid depressurization, anytime pressurizer pressure drops below 1621 psia following a SIAS, all reactor coolant pump operation is terminated. Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

- Steam generator heat removal should be perfonned by feeding the steam generators with main or auxiliary feedwater and dumping steam to the condenser via the turbine bypass system. If the condenser or turbine
- bypass system is not available, the next order of priority for discharging steam would be to use the atmospheric dump valves.
i 1
- The use of atmospheric dump valves may have the potential release of activity to the environment. If it is suspected that a steam generator (s) may be affected by a tube rupture, S/G cooling should be performed using the unaffected or least affected generator.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to check the conditions that indicate single phase natural circulation flow exists.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-82, step 6)
- When single phase natural circulation is established in at least one loop the RCS indicates all of the following conditions
a) Loop AT (TH - T )C less than normal full power AT; b) Cold leg temperatures constant or decreasing; i
c) Hot leg temperatures stable (i.e. not steadily increasing) or slowly decreasing; d) No abnormal differences between THRTDs and core exit thermocouples.
Hot leg RTD temperature should be consistent with the core exit thermocouples.

Objective:
This step evaluates certain criteria associated with terminating safety injection flow.

Step 10. I_F ALL Safety Injection termination criteria (step 9) are satisfied, THEN throttle OR stop Safety Injection FLOW one train at a time AND stop Cnarging pumps as necessary to control Pressurizer level 33% to 60%.
Objective: ,
The step maintains pressurizer level and prevents solid water operation unless 28 F subcooling margin cannot be maintained. If 28*F subcooling margin cannot be maintained, thcn the pressurizer is taken solid with high pressure safety injection pumps.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-82, step 7) i If the criteria are all met, the operator may either terminate or throttle the SIS. The operator may decide to throttle rather than terminate if SIS is to be used to control pressurizer level or plant pressure. Termination of SIS should be sequenced by stopping one pump at a time while observing the termination criteria.
Operational Considerations:
Solid water operation is permissible only when reactor coolant system subcooling margin is <28 F. To throttle cold leg injection valves, the switch must be taken to the "MORE" position which places them in SIAS override.

Objective:
This step provides guidance for a total loss of feedwater.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-80, step 4)
If all feedwater is lost (both main and emergency) certain activities should be performed to keep the plant in a stable condition. These activities are listed below, a) Stop all RCPs b) Any cooldown is stopped to minimize steam discharge and conserve S/G l inventories.
l 1
c) If in operation, the steam generator blowdown system, secondary sampling system or any other nonvital secondary discharge must be secured. Until feedwater is reestablished, the steam generator water inventories must be conserved.
d) The operator should attempt to restore the operation of the main or auxiliary feedwater system to provide a primary decay heat sink for a controlled depressurization to meet the success criteria of this recovery action guideline.
A moderate rate of increase in steam generator water level is suffi-cient to restore S/G 1evel. If the refill rate is too fast, excessive cooldown of the RCS and shrinkage of RCS inventory may result.
4 Consequently, pressurizer level may fall below that required to maintain a bubble for pressure control. An adequate feed rate for restoring steam generator level is determined by operating experience.

Step 19. IF_ HPSI flow is NOT >25 gpm per operating HPSI pump, THEN sequentially perform the following until operating HPSI pump flow >25 gpm:
Objective:
This step ensures .that each operating high pressure safety injection pump has a minimum flow >25 gpm.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-84, step 10)
After the switch to recirculation, the HPSI flows are monitored in order to ensure that the HPSI miniflow requirement for pump protection are met to avert any possible permanent HPSI pump damage. If they are not met, the operator should turn off the charging pumps one at a time until the miniflow requirements are met. If they are still not met with all the charging pumps off and two HPSI pumps are operating, the operator turns off the HPSI pump with the lower flow. One HPSI pump should be left operating at all times, unless the criteria of step 81 are met.
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instru-ment should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Cold Legs as follows:
l l ,
! Objective:
This step aligns safety injection pump discharge to both hot and cold leg l injection.
i l Basis:
i Simultaneous hot and cold leg injection is used for both small break and large break Loss of Coolant Accidents at [2-4 hours] after the start of the Loss of Coolant Accident. In this mod *, the high pressure safety in-j jection pumps discharge lines are realigned so that the total injection i flow is divided equally between the hot and cold legs. Simultaneous in-j jection into the hot and cold legs is used as the mechanism to prevent the precipitation of boric acid in the reactor vessel following a break that is too large to allow the reactor coolant system to refill. Injecting to t both sides of the reactor vessel ensures that fluid from the reactor ves-sel (when the boric acid is being concentrated) flows out the break re-
) gardless of the break location and is replenished with a dilute solution of borated water from the other side of the reactor vessel. The action is taken no sooner than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> after the Loss of Coolant Accident since the fluid injected to the hot leg may be entrained in the steam being released

Basis: (Continued) i Even though the action is required only for large breaks, it is taken for any Loss of Coolant Accident so that the operator need not be required to distinguish between large and small breaks so early in the transient.
Simultaneous hot and cold leg injection is not required for small breaks, because for them the buildup of boric acid is terminated when the reactor coolant system is refilled. Once the reactor coolant system is refilled, the boric acid is dispersed throughout the reactor coolant system via natural circulation.

Objective:
The objective of this step is to check the criteria associated with satisfactorily completing this success path.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-4, step 3)
The basis for each individual criterion is given in Section 2.0 of the technical guide. The criteria are used to judge the status of each safety function. Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can be used to control that safety function, the criteria which are used to judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use different technical mcans of achieving a function, the criteria for judging the success of that path are specific to the technical means.
Also, in order to facilitate operator use, the criteria chosen are parameters which can be read directly from the control board.

Objective:

Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-87, step 3)
If once through cooling has been established, it must be continued unless RCS conditions can be brought within the limits of Attachment 5: Post Accident Pressure and Temperature Limits Graph and as follows:
a) RCS is at least [20*F] subcooled (Figure 10-10). Establishing [20*F]
I subcooling prevents void formation in the core when SIS flow is terminated, and provides sufficient margin for establishing flow should the [20*F] subcooling deteriorate when SIS flow is secured.
The [200*] subcooled limit minimizes the effects of PTS. a b) Pressurizer level is greater than [100]" and is constant or increas-
, ing. A pressurizer level greater than [100]" and responding normally ensure the RCS inventory control has been established.
c) At least one steam generator is available for removing heat from the RCS. A steam generator available for removing heat from the RCS ensures that primary to secondary heat removal is being maintained.
A steam generator available includes feedwater available for removing l
heat from the generator and a method for removing steam (e.g. atmos-l pheric dump valves, etc).
Operational Considerations:

Step 11. IF HPSI flow is NOT >25 gpa per operating HPSI pump AND RAS has occurred, THEN sequentially perform the following until operat-ing HPSI pump flow 125 gpm:
Objective:
This step ensures that each operating high pressure safety injection pump has a minimum flow 125 gpm.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-88, step 6)
After the switch to recirculation, the HPSI flows are monitored in order to ensure that the HPSI miniflow requirements for pump protection are met to avert any possible permanent HPSI pump damage. If they are not met, l the operator should turn off the charging pumps one at a time until the miniflow requirements are met. If they are still not met with all the charging pump off and two HPSI pumps are operating, the operator turns off the HPSI pumps with the lower flow. One HPSI pump should be left operating at all times, unless once through cooling termination criteria are met (step 3).
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indicaf.fons for one parameter exist, more than one instru-ment should be used to obtain a partic"lar reading.
EPG Step Content: (CEN-152, page 10-168, step 6)
If the HPSI pumps are delivering less than [30 gpm] per pump during recirculation, turn off one charging pump and/or HPSI pump (turn off the HPSI pump with the lower indicated flow) at a time until the HPSI pumps are delivering more than [30 gpm] per pump.

Step 12. Between two hours AND four hours post-LOCA, realign Safety Injection pumps discharge for equal flow to the Hot Legs AND Cold Legs as follows:
Objective:
This step aligns safety injection pump discharge to both hot and cold leg injection.
Basis:
Simultaneous hot and cold leg injection is used for both small break and large break Loss of Coolant Accidents at 2-4 hours after the start of the Loss of Coolant Accident. In this mode, the high pressure safety in' jection pumps discharge lines are realigned so that the total injection flow is divided equally between the hot and cold legs. Simultaneous in-jection into the hot and cold legs is used as the mechanism to prevent the precipitation of boric acid in the reactor vessel following a break that is too large to allow the reactor coolant system to refill. Injecting to both sides of. the reactor vessel ensures that fluid from the reactor ves-sel (when the boric acid is being concentrated) flows out the break re-gardless of the break location and is replenished with a dilute solution of borated water from the other side of the reactor vessel. The action is taken no sooner than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> after the Loss of Coolant Accident since the fluid injected to the hot leg may be entrained in the steam being released from the core and hence possibly diverted from reaching the reactor ves-sel. After 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, the core decay heat has dropped sufficiently so that there is insufficient steam velocity to entrain the fluid being injected to the hot leg. The action is taken no later than 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> after the Loss of Coolant Accident in order to ensure that the buildup of boric acid is terminated well before the potential for boric acid precipitation occurs.

E0P Step 12 (Continued).
Basis: (Continued)
Even though the action is required only for large breaks, it is taken for any loss of Coolant Accident so that the operator need not be required to distinguish between large and small breaks so early in the transient.
Simultaneous hot and cold leg injection is not required for small breaks, because for them the buildup of boric acid is terminated when the reactor coolant system is refilled. Once the reactor coolant system is refilled, the boric acid is dispersed throughout the reactor coolant system via natural circulation.

The basis for each individual criterion is given in Section 2.0 of the technical guide. The criteria are used to judge the status of each safety function. Since each safety function has multiple success paths which can 1 be used to control that safety function, the criteria which are used to judge the status of each safety function are organized around the success paths for each safety function. Since each success path uses or may use

Step 4. IF_ Pressurizer pressure is between 392 psia AND 205 psia, THEN check the following Shutdown Cooling criteria:
4 Objective:
This step checks the criteria which are required for entry into shutdown cooling.
j Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-90, step 1)
The operator should determine if SCS operation criteria are met. If pressurizer level is stable, tte pressurizer and/or HPSI pumps are main-taining system presst:re such that RCS hot and cold leg temperatures are at least [20*F] below saturation temperature for pressurizer pressure, and the steam generators are available (steam flow and feed flow) to reduce the RCS temperature to the shutdown cooling entry value, SCS operation may be appropriate if the SCS is available. Before the SCS is operated, RCS I
activity levels must be determined since the RCS fluid will now be circu-lated outside of the containment building. The operator must decide whether to circulate high activity RCS coolant outside containment if high activity is present and such circulation has the potential for release to the environment. If the potential for significant releases exists, it may
- be more desirable to continue cooling with the steam generator. The condensate inventory must be checked to ensure that the supply is suffi-cient to cool down the plant to SCS entry conditions or continue cooling the RCS. Other plant specific prerequisites for SCS operation must be considered (e.g. component cooling water, instrument ali and valve control power).
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instru-ment should be used to obtain a particular reading.

i Objective:
This step places one train of shutdown cooling in service.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-90, step 1)
If SCS operation is determined to be appropriate the ECCS (if operating) 4 is aligned for cold leg injection and the RCS is cooled down and
- depressurized as follows. If necessary, RCS hot leg temperature should be cooled to less than [300*F] and depressurized to [300 psia]. The RCS l is depressurized to [300 psia] or less by using auxiliary spray.
< Depressurization may also be accomplished by stopping charging pumps, or stopping or throttling HPSI pumps. If auxiliary spray is used, the difference between the pressurizer temperature and the auxiliary spray water temperature should be maintained below [200*F] if possible. If RCS inventory control is satisfactory, auxiliary spray water temperature may be increased by increasing letdown flow or reducing charging flow which will increase the regenerative heat exchanger outlet temperature. Other plant specific methods to increase auxiliary spray water temperature may be used. If auxiliary spray is used when a [200*F] or more difference
! exists, then such a cycle must be recorded as per Technical Specifica-tions. The number of such cycles should be minimized. [Another opera-i tional alternative for the RCS pressure reduction is to throttle the HPSI pumps and adjust charging pump flow (if the pressurized is solid) to maintain level and control pressure.] i Operational Considerations:
If containment spray is in service, then the opposite train of shutdown cooling should be placed in service. If a steam generator'is isolated '
due to activity in the steam plant, then shutdown cooling should be lined l up to the loop with the steam generator which is not isolated.

Step 6. Check for Steam Plant activity as indicated by any of the following:
Objective:
The objective of this step is to check that a steam generator with high activity is determined prior to further cooldown.
Basis: (CEN-152, page 10-94)
If activity is detected in the steam plant, this usually means that at least one steam generator has tube leaks. This step will provide infor-mation to the operator so containment integrity can be assured in the following steps of this procedure.
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instru-ment should be used to obtain a particular reading. The blowdown radia-tion monitor will indicate only on the steam generator to which it is selected. Automatic feedwater modulations may mask the expected steam generator level rise due to a steam generator tube rupture.

Step 9. Verify Reactor Coolant System temperature is being controlled as follows:
Objective:
The objective of this step is to verify that the reactor coolant system temperature is being controlled at the desired value.
Basis:
Reactor coolant system temperature is controlled at <550 F so that the reactor coolant system heat inventory is not sufficient to cause steam generator safety valves to lift. The steam bypass control system is the i preferred means for control of steam generator pressure because the atmospheric dump valves would allow an unmonitored radioactive release to the environment.
Operational Considerations:
This step is performed before the leaking steam generator has been iden-tified and isolated to prevent the steam generator safety valves from lifting. If the condenser is available, then by using the steam bypass control system, a closed system is maintained. If the automatic function is not operating properly, then systems should be placed in manual.
Systems in manual should be monitored for proper operation. Where mul-tiple indications for one parameter exist, more than one instrument should be used to obtain a particular reading.

Objective:
This step ensures cooldown prior to depressurization so that 50 F sub-cooling is maintained.
Basis:
This step is done to ensure that during the plant depressurization 28 F subcooling will be maintained. The 500*F will actually provide 45 F subcooling at 1000 psia. This provides an additional margin during the transient condition. The hot leg temperature of 500 F also considers core uplift when all reactor coolant pumps are operating.

Step 16. When Hot Leg temperature is 500*F for the loop with the Steam Generator which is NOT isolated, depressurize the Reactor Coolant System to 1000 psia as follows:
Objective:
This step depressurizes the reactor coolant system to 1000 psia to reduce the reactor coolant leakage into the steam generator.
Basis:
The general goals associated with reactor coolant system pressure control are providing subcooling to support the core heat removal process, avoid-ing overpressure situations for pressurizer thermal shock and RT NOT considerations, minimizing the pressure differential between the steam generator and the reactor coolant system to minimize the leakage and control reactor coolant system pressure so that it is below the steam generator safety valve setpoints.
Operational Considerations:
Controlled depressurization below 1621 psia does not require stopping reactor coolant pumps. Pressurizer level anomalies during controlled depressurization to 1000 psia may be tolerated. Below 1000 psia, sub-cooling margin shall be detemined by subtracting hot leg temperature from Pressurizer Temperature Water (TI 101).

Step 17. Maintain Pressurizer temperature 10 F to 20 F above isolated Steam Generator temperature.
Objective:
This step ensures that pressurizer pressure is slightly above steam generator pressure to minimize leakage through the affected steam generator.
Basis:
The small differential pressure will minimize the loss of primary fluid to the secondary side which will help to minimize potential releases of radioactive effluents to the environment. Since pressurizer pressure is above steam generator pressure, this will preclude secondary fluid from diluting reactor coolant system.
Operational Considerations:
Where multiple indications for one parameter exist, use more than one instrument to obtain a particular reading. Due to the accuracy of the pressure transmitters, temperature difference is used to satisfy the objective of this step.

Objective:
This step directs the operator actions if hydrogen concentration reaches 3%. .
Basis:
If the hydrogen concentration reached 3%, then either the hydrogen recom-biners or the containment atmospheric release system has to be placed in operation. This action will prevent or limit the rise of the hydrogen concentration in the containment. If the hydrogen concentration reaches 4%, then the containment atmospheric release system is placed in operation with the hydrogen recombiners.

Main or auxiliary pressurizer spray should be used as necessary to equal-ize the pressurizer and RCS loop water boron concentration as a change is made to the RCS boron concentration. If pressurizer spray is not avail-able, RCS boron concentration should be increased. This avoids an RCS dilution below minimum shutdown requirements by a possible pressurizer outsurge.
Justification:
Since the RCS Pressure Control safety function is a lower priority safety function, the availability of pressurizer spray may not have been deter-mined at this time. Using pressurizer spray during the Reactivity Control safety function deviates from the philosophy of this procedure and thereby can jeopardize other safety functions. Emergency boration is terminated when specific criteria are satisfied. If the criteria are satisfied, then the Reactivity Control safety function is no longer in jeopardy.

This precaution is an information only precaution. There are no instruc-tions given here for what to do with a steam generator tube leak (i.e.,
isolate the affected steam generator). Steam plant activity is part of the Containment Isolation safety function. The safety function status checklist will alert the operator if the Containment Isolation safety function is in jeopar@ due to steam plant activity.

Natural circulation flow should not be verified until the RCPs have stopped coasting down after being tripped.
Justification:
This precaution was not used because it was decided that operators would be trained to know when to monitor natural circulation. Also, by the way ,
the procedures are structured, the steps for monitoring natural circula-tion are located at a point when reactor coolant pumps should have stopped coasting down.

, When RCS heat removal is conducted by natural circulation with an isolated steam generator, an inverted AT (i.e. T chigher than T ) hmay be observed in the idle loop. This is due to a small amount of reverse heat transfer in the isolated steam generator and will have no affect on natural circu-lation flow in the operating steam generator loop.
Justification:
This precaution was not used because it was decided that operators would be trained to recognize this inverted aT and its effect on cooldown.
