'., .$ Document Control Desk Attachment 1 e C311-92-2047 Page 1-Activities Directly Affecting Systems / Components Described in the Safety Analysis Report I. Tests and Experiments Int: Inservice Hydrostatic Test of the Nuclear River Water System Descriotion of Test: In accordance with Technical Specification Section 4.2.1 a hydrostatic test was' performed on the Nuclear River Watcr System to verify that leak-tightness requirements were satisfied on a ten year interval.

Safety Evaluation-Summary: Evaluation identified no adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant operations ca either the Decay Heat Removal or Spent fuel cooling since insufficient heat remains during shutdown to affect system operation-for the duration of the hydro. The test did not increase the probability of. occurrence or the consequences of an accident previously evaluated-in the SAR since the duration of the hydro was less than the interval which the Spent fuel Pool can go without cooling;- cooling was not completely removed. There was no increase in the probability of occurrence or the consequences of a malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR since a satisfactory test result- verifies the capability of the system boundary to perform its safety function, The possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated was not created'since cold shutdown accidents are not addressed by the UFSAR. No margin of safety defined in the basis _ of the Technica1' SpecifWattons was -

reduced as a result of the test since the test is required by the Tech Specs. I 191t,: Lithium Tracer Test for Venturi Nozzle Calibration (SE412565)

'Descriotion of Test: The purpose of the test was to calibrate the replacement feedwater flow venturis by accurately measuring feedwater-flow to each OTSG using a chemical tracer.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The single as?ect of the chemical tracer test i which had possible._ impact _ on accident _ pro) ability _was related to lithium '

' injection to the secondary side of the plant. The OTSG tube rupture is the

-only accident evaluated in the SAR which could have been impacted by alteration of chemistry en the secondary side. Based on the analysis in the safety evaluation,-lithium was determined to have no-degrading effect on the OTSGs. The probability of occurrence of any previously ' evaluated accident-was not increased. 'The. performance of the test did not introduce any new

-accident. precursors. -Reactor operations were maintained within license

. limits. Administrative controls were_in place to preclude any adverse condition resulting from improper control-of' equipment or conduct of the test.

'The nuclear instrumentation was calibrated based on conservative estimates of core power. Therefore, the margin of safety as defined in the bases for any Technical Specification relative to core power were not reduced. There were no adverse-affects on nuclear safety or safe plant operation.

Descriotion of Channe: The change included the following items:

a changed exhibits 2 and 7 to allow 2 year valve cycling versus 18 month cycling based on accessibility during refueling outages,

b. changed transformer deluge testing to a refueling versus an 18 month interval,
c. added notes and new 3rocedures/ title changes to exhibits listing implement-ing documents (exhi)it 5),
d. changed exhibit 4 to delete the Unit 2 Admin Computer Room Halon system since it is out of service and to be removed.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The change added references to new/ revised implementing procedures needed to maintain systems and components per insur-ance and NFPA codes and standards. None of the changes were associated with safety related plant areas, systems or components. The change to exhibit 5 adds a note to aid in assuring Rockbestos Firo Zone R cable is inspected per electrical maintenance procedures as committed in the FSAR and NRC SER on Fire Zone R cable used to meet 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section Ill. G requirements.

The change to exhibit 2 replaced the Standard Tech Spec 18 month valve cycling with the new section for cycling inaccessible valves on a two year / refueling basis. The original basis (18 months) was for refueling, therefore consisten-cy is maintained. Since the procedure changes did not affect the ability to maintain, monitor or achieve safe shutdown in the event of a fire, the change was allowed per License Condition 2.C.(4). The procedure change did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

                                                                                    • .************************** +.******

Document: Final Safety Analysis Report Section 12.1.1.2.d L

i Descriotion of Chanag: The change allows exemption from the requirement that i

the Director, 0&M, THI-l have a bachelor's degree in science or engineering.

The exemption is determined acceptable by the Office of the President, GPU Nuclear.

l Safety Evaluation Summ m : The change did not adversely affect nuclear safety l since the Office of the President continued to use prudent judgement in l accepting candidates for the position of Director, 0&M. The change neither l increcsed the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR nor created the possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated and did not reduce a margin of safety defined in the basis of the Technical Specifications since no change was made which affects plant equipment. The requirement for a degree for the position was not assumed in any analysis. No change to the Technical Specifications was required. The evaluation concluded that no unreviewed safety question exist-ed. The change did not constitute aa Unreviewed Safety Question.

D_tKr_igtion of Chance: The-Core Flood Tank Metal Temperature Low Alarm l setpoint was reduced from ll5'F to 100*F. ,

Safety E_yaluation Summ uy: The change was made via direction in Memo 5360-91-254._ lt was determined that as long as the metal temperature is '

maintained >100*F the tanks will be above NDTT + 0*F untti the tanks depressurize to less than 140 psig during a large break LOCA. Core flood Tank o)erability is assured as long as initial temperature is >100'F. As a result, tie change did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question..  !

Procedure: SP 1300-3H IST of SW-P-2A/B and Valves (PCR-1-05-91-0327) {

Descriotion of Chanoe: The procedure was deleted.

infety Evaluation Summar.v: The Safety Evaluation justified the reclassif!ca-tion of-the cooling water portion of the Heating. Ventilation and Air Condi- ,

tioning system (HVAC)-for_-the intake Screen and Pumphouse from Nuclear Safety Related to "other". The determination concluded, based on the results of calt.ulation C-Il01-536-5360-001 R0, that the maximum ambient would not affect component performance. No adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant operations was found to exist since the Limitorque and EIM valve operators would continue'to operate within their design margins at ll7.6*F. The activity did not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction previously evaluated in the SAR since equipment i continued to perform its intended function following the declassification of SW-P2A and B. The possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated was not created because equipment perfor-mance was not adversely affected by the c hage. No margin of safety defined ,

in the basis _ of the Technical Specifications was reduced as a result of the change for the same reason. All equipment important for nuclear safety would continue to operate following the loss of Screen riouse HVAC. There was no unreviewed safety question.

Procedurg: SP 1301-1 Shift and Daily Checks (PCR 9-91-0364)

Description of Chanoe: The procedure revision increased the time period allowed for validation of primary to secondary leakrate values in excess of 6 gallons per hour above baseline from 24 to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.

Safety Evaluation Summarv: -The change was determined to have no adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant operations since abnormal leakage would continue to be detected in a timely manner, continued operation near or at the limit was not unsafe and the resulting additional radiation exposure was limited to a.small fraction of the 10 CFR 20 limits. The change did not involve an unreviewed safety question.

Document Control Desk Attachment 1 c C311-92-2047 Page 4 Procedure: SP 1303-11.18 Reactor Building local Leakrate Testing (PCR1-91-0041)

Descriotion of Chanat: The procedure change incorporated changes resulting from the addition of test connections which were accomplished under CHR 90-0154 and included sketches to show the connections. Reverse direction testing of WDL-V534 was included in the procedure change. Previous hand drawn sketches were replaced with CAD sketches for clarity and consistency.

Additional changes resulting from TCH 91-0132, rewrites of the index, enclo-wm 4A and 4B and the addition of enclosure 40 were also included.

U fety Evaluation Summary: Review of all changes with the exception of the reverse testing of WDL-V534 found no potential to adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations and required no safety evaluation be per-formed. Reverse testing (in the non-accident direction) of WDL-V534 was considered to have the potential to adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations and was evaluated on that basis. As a result of the evalua-tion it was determined that the procedure change did not increase the proba-bility of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR since equivalent test results were obtainable. The possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated was not created since the procedure was performed during cold shutdown when containment integrity is not required. No margin of safety defined in the basis of the Technical Specifi-cations was reduced as a result of the change sinca cumulative local leakrate testing leakage is typically much less than 0.6 La. The change did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Procedure: THi-1 Chemical Cleaning Process Evaluation Descriotion of Chanat: Chemical cleaning of the 1HI-l steam generators was performed to restore their capacity to 100%. The process dissolved and renoved corrosion products that deposited in the broach openings of the secondary side of the steam generators. 1he deposits cause an increased steam generator operating water levels that result in forced power reductions to avoid flooding of the feedwater .iozzles. The deposits originated from the feedwater and conden: ate systems and accumulated in the steam generator during operation. Prior attempts to remove the deposits by mechanical means have only provided short term restoration of full power capability.

hf_ gly _ Evaluation Summary: The chemical cleaning process was evaluated and found not to have an adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant opera-tions. It was demonstrated that the process will not result in corrosion of the steam generator materials in excess of allowable limits. An on-line corrcsion monitoring system monitored the process and verified that the cumulative corrosion did not exceed allowances. Since the water level in the downcomer is reduced and therefore generator inventory is reduced by chemical cleaning, the margin of safety with respect to recriticality analysis for a main steam line break, for the analysis of containmtnt pressure and offsite dose calculation were not affected. No foreign materials or loose parts were

-left inside the steam generator which would cause a tube rupture during operation. As a result, no increase in the probability of occurrence of an

, Document C:ntrol Desk Attachment 1 e C311-92-2047 Page 5 accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety. The consequences are also unaffected since the activity did not adversely affect the systems which mitigate the consequences of the tube rupture. The probability of an accident or malfe ; tion of a different type than evaluated previously in the SAR-is not created since tube integrity is not affected by the process. No radiological safety concern was determined to exist. The change did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

                                                                                        • +*********************************

l bcument: Fire Hazards Analysis Report i 1

hieriotion of Chanae: Non-physical plant changes recommended by QA Audit l S-THI-90-20 to the Fire Hazards Analysis Report for THI-l were made as deemed appropriate. The changes involved fire barriers and extinguisher.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The description of fire walls and location of extinguisher as changed to correct the description to more accurately describe i the physical condition did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant '

I operation since the components involved do not perform a safety function. The probability of occurrence or consecuence of an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety was cetermined not to be increased. The activity did not create the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any previously identified in the SAR since no structures, systems or components were modified as a result of the changes. The margin of safety as defined in the SAR or as defined in the basis for any Tech Spec was not reduced by the change since no margin is defined for barriers or extinguisher. An unreviewed safety question was not created.

Document: Increase RCP Number 1 Seal Leakoff Descriotion of Chanoe: The change permitted operation of the THI-l Reactor Coolant Pumps with two pumps having up to 14 gpm leakoff at the number 1 seal simultaneously.

Saf_ qty Evaluation SummaCy: Evaluation of the document found that tha margin of safety as defined in the SAR or as defined in the basis for any iech Spec was not reduced by the change. The limitations on reactor coolant leakage specified in Tech Spec Section 3.1 were not impacted since the increase of leakage flow is to the number 1 seal leakoff which is returned to the RCS via the Makeup System. Nuclear safety and safe plant operations were not adverse-ly affected since the increased flow limit will not increase the probability of seal failure during normal operation. The probability of occurrence or consequence of an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety was determined not to be increased. The activity did not create the possibil-ity for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any previously identified in the SAR. An unreviewed safety question was not created.

Descriotion of Chanag: The THI-l Primary Water Chemistry Specification for operations, hot shutdown and hot standby were revised to increase the ppm Lithium concentration range from the existing limit of 0.25 to 2.2 ppm to 0.25 to 3.6 ppm Lithium.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The change did not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR, did not create the possi-bility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated in the SAR and did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations. No margin of safety defined in the basis of the Technical Specifications was reduced as a result of the document revision. The change resulted in reduced corrosion nf plant construction materials and thereby reduced corrosion product release, transport and deposition on the fuel and other system surfaces resulting in lower radiation fields and improved fuel performance. This change did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Document: THi-1 Cycle 9 Reload Design Description of Chanae: The core and fuel design as depicted by the core reload design, operating limits and operation with the four Westinghouse Leal l Test Assemblies were updated for Cycle 9 operation.

Safety Evaluation Sumary: Implementation of the Cycle 9 design and operating limits did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operation. This is supported by conservatism in the design and operating limits. The proba-bility of occurrence or consequence of an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety was determined not to be increased since only the cycle length and core configuration were changed. The activity did not create the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any previously identified in the SAR since Cycle 9 was developed using B1W approved methodologies and operated using standard plant arocedures. The I margin of safety as defined in the SAR or as defined in tie basis for any Tech l Spec was not reduced by the change since evaluation has shown that no previ-ously established design criteria or limits are exceeded. An unreviewed L safety question was not created.

Page 7 III. Modifications '

Modification: OTSG Blowdown Orifice Installation (BA 128087 / JO 13358)  ;

Description of Modification: This modification replaced the needle valves (CA-Y-357A/B) in the 01SG blowdown lines with orifices. This modification provides a more reliable method of restricting OTSG blowdcwn flow from the ,

secondary side of the OTSGs to the condenser. The needle valves were locked in a slightly open position to restrict flow. . Flow restriction is required to prevent excessive vibration. The orifices are more suitable for this applica-tion since they are more reliable and resilient to operating conditions.

hhtly Evaluation Summary: Replacement of the needle valves with orifices did not adversely affect the performance of the blowdown system. The orifices are '

sized for the same pressure differentials which the needle valves provided. .

The-resulting flow rates were unchanged and secondary' side water chemistry was ,

not affected. -The orifices perform the same function as the needle valves that were replaced. The modification also precluded the possibility of s vibration due to inadvertent opening of the needle valves. Therefore, this

. modification-did not-. increase the probability of-occurrence or the consequenc-ts of a malfunction of equipment important to safety. This modification was not safety related and did not change plant performance or system performance.

This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

  • Modification:. Miscellaneous Waste Evaporator Distillate Pump Vent and Pressure Gauge Modification (BA 128112 / JO 28451)

Descr_iption of Modification: This= modification installed a pressure gauge and vent valve on the discharge of distillate = pump (WDL-P-21) for the Miscel.a-neous Waste Evaporator. The purpose of this modification was to-provide indication of pump performance and to allow = venting in _ order to eliminate air entrapment. .

Safety Evaluation Summary: The installation of the pressure gauge and vent-valve connection on the discharge of the distillate pump had no adverse impact on the performance _of the pump. The gauge serves as an-indication of pump <

performance'.during operation to aid in-preventive maintenance for the pump.

The veat provides a pathway to eliminate entrapped air in the system during startup of the pump, which. aids pump operation _and longevity. No changes to -

the function of the-system occurred. The processing of the distillate was

. unaltered by this modification. The margin of safety as defined in the Safety Analysis Report or as defined in the basis for any Technical Specifications ,

were not redu ed.by this' modification since no adverse effects on system performance or_ design criteria occurred. The probability of an accident or

malfunction of a' type different from any evaluated previoud/ in the SAR was ,

not created since the pressure gauge and vent did not alter the function of the distillate pump, or the design criteria of the-system. The vent and gauge ,

help to reduce.the chance of pumo malfunction by eliminating air entrapment

~

and providing an indication of :ystem pressure as a diagnostic aid. This

-modification did not' constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

. Document Control Desk Attachment 1 e C311-92-2047 Page 8 Modification: Differential Pressure Gauges for DH-P-1A/B IST (BA 128112 /

JO 33397)

Description of Modificatiqn: The modification installed differential pressure gauges on Decay Heat Removal Pumps IA and B to improve the capability of performing in-service testing on those pumps. The existing discharge pressure gauges (DH-PI-1/2), tubing and supports were removed and replaced with new AP gauges, and associated tubing and supports. Additionally, the 0-400 psig discharge gauges designated PI-1224 A/B were replaced with 0-600 psig gaugss.

Safety Evaluation Sumary: The AP gauges are used to indicate system pres-sures for the purpose of IST. They have no ef fect on system performance and do not affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations. Similarly, the probability of an accident or malfunction of a type different from any evaluated previously in the SAR was not created since the pressure gauges did not alter the pump function or the design criteria of the system. This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

ModificatiOD: ATWS Implementation- 100FR50.62 (BA 412462 / JO 26291)

Descriotion of Hodification: The modification implemented the comitments mada to the NRC as described in SAR via GP'.'N File No. C311-89-374. The comitments were met by the installation of a Diverse Scram System (DSS) and an alternate turbine trip circuit and by actuation of EFW by the Heat Sink Protection System (HSPS) upon sensing low OTSG 1evel. The DSS is fed from existing RCS pressure sensors and trips existing CR0 system circuit breakers.

New hydraulic oil pressure switches on the main feedwater pumps were added to provide signals for the alternate turbine trip. A DSS manual pushbutton was also added to the control console, and isolated signals from the DSS are sent to the computer for RCS pressure signals PT-949 and PT-963.

While these are not part of the ATWS comitments, this modification also replaced the nin feedwater differential pressure switches associated with HSPS with hydraulic oil pressure switches on the main feedwater pumps.

Diety Evaluation Sumany: This modification does not introduce any new accider,t or malfunctior, not previously evaluated, not does the modification increase the likelihood of occurrence or consequences of any accident as analyzed in the 1MI-1 FSAR. This modification did not decrease the margin of safety as described in the Technical Specifications because the modification did not impact any system safety functions and the modification was performed in accordance with existing seismic and electric / physical separation require-ments.

The change in the pressure switches for sensing loss of feedwater as input into the HSPS did not affect the safety function of the HSPS.

The mod *fication did not affect the safety function of any interfacing systems and did not affect the UFSAR Chapter 14 accident analysis. Therefore, this modification did not involve an unreviewed safety question or new environmen-tal impact and did not adversely affect nuclear safety.

liq'Jification: Installation of Air Sample Stction (BA 41252B / JO 18428) i e

Ogsc719tionofModification: This modification provided mounting fixtures for air sampling instr uents at various locations in the THI-l Auxiltary and fuel Handling Buildings, Previously, numerous regulated air samplers, model RAS-1, and beta particulate monitors, model AMS-3, were in service on temporary tables, carts, etc. The inftallation of stationary support facilities for the instruments benefit the air onitoring program.

Safety Evalunion Summary. The function or operation of the affected radia-tion monitoFs rNs tot affected by the modification. They were physically repositioned from their previous supports to new supports in the same general location. Therefore, this modification, which installed termanent support fixtures as Air Sampic Stations in the Auxiliary .nd F4el' Handling Buildings did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations and did not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Modiffcatjg Containment High Range Radiation Monitors input to SPDS i (BA 412520 / J0 28444)

Q ncrjation of Modification: The modification removed the Reactor Building High Range Radiation Monitor (RM-G8) from the plant configuration and replaced the RM-G8 input signal to the Safety Parameter Display System (SPUS) with inputs from existing Containment High Range Radiation Monitors RM-G22 and RM-G23. Signal isolation devices were also installed at the output of cxisting ratemeters, RMo22 and RM-G23, isolating the signals to the respec-tive recorders RM-R6A and RM-R68 and to the computer.

RM-G8 was part of the original plant configuration and was intended to quantify radiation levels indicative of a loss of coolant accident. F"i-G8 was the containment dome monitor able to detect radiation levels to 10'R/ hour.

RM-G22 and RM-G23 were installed during the seriod that THI-l sat idle after the THI-2 accident. They were installed to pring the plant in conformance with NUREG 0737 and Reg. Guide 1.97 and provide radiation level monitoring capability during and following an accident. The monitors are qualified to withstand accident environments and therefore provide a more reliable means of fulfilling the original RM-G8 design function.

Installation of this modification improved the accuracy and reliability of the post accident Reactor Building high range area radiation level information supplied to SPDS. It removed a detector, RM-GB, which was obsolete and identified as a possible source of error from the plant configuration.

Safety Evaluqtion Summary: The modification to isolate / abandon RM-GB was

' determined to have no adverse impact on nuclear safety or safe plant opera-tions. The margin of safety as-defined in the basis for the Technical Specifications is not reduced since the replacement monitors exceed the post accident capabilities of RM-G8 and their associated technical specifications ensure their functional capabilities. No Unreviewed Safety Question or environmental impact were found to exist as a result of the modification,

Modification: Instrument Air System Upgrado (BA 412551 / JO 20474)

DLittiption of Modification: As a result of a review performed by the B&W Owner's Group Safety and Performance Improvenient Program (SPIP), the following ,

modifications were made to the Instrument Air System (IAS):

A new IAS train was installed consisting of a 440 SCFM compressor, receiver, pre-filter, af ter-filter, and dryer. The previous compres-sors and filter / dryer-train were retained as standby units increasing overall system reliability and maximum air available to respond to systum failures. One of the previous compressors also satisfies the W endix R remote shutdown requirements.

In order to prGy n t cycling of the previous compressors (IA-P-1A/B) due to system leakage b% wen existing compressors and the new isola-tion valves, a cross-tie was installed between the new compressor (IA-P-4) header and the l" cross-tie between receivers IA-T-1A/B. The new cross-tie permits the required makeup flow to the receivers, but i

prevents flow of undried air from entering the IA header.

Safety Evaluation Stengy: The margin of safety as defined in the SAR or '

Technical Specifications was not reduced because the modification increased system redundancy and reliability by adding a rew IA train to be used as the lead unit. The IA system is non-nuclear safety related and is not part of the engineered safeguards system. Therefore, this modification did not decrease a i margin of safety nor create the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any previously evaluated in the SAR. This modification >

did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

                                                                                                        • e u **********************

Modification: Bailey BY Transmitter Replacement (BA 412553 / J0 26287)

Description of Modification: Because of obsolescence and inability to provide sufficient accuracy for system usage needs, the eight Bailey BY transmitters (RCl4A-DPT-1 through to 4 and RCl4B-DPT-1 through 4) in the RC system were replaced with Rosemount model ll53HD6RC transmitters and two By transmitters in the SP system (SP-1A-LTl and SP-1B-LTl) were deleted. Isolated signals were routed to the plant computer from the existing OTSG 1evel equipment in the signal conditioning cabinets Al and Bl.

The existing RPS RC flow input Buffer Amplifiers in channels A & B were modified by connecting the internal Reference Voltage Source and terminating the input signal with a resistive load. The existing Bailey Square Root Extractor modules located in the RPS cabinets were modified by connecting its 1- internal Reference Voltage Source and terminating the input signal with a resistive load. An existing spare isolation module was used in Signal Conditioning Cabinet Al and 81 to provide non-lE signals from the transmitter loops to the plant computer inputs.

. Document Control Desk Attachment I e C311-92-2047 page 11 Safety Evaluation Summary: This modification has resulted in no decrease to a margin of safety dercribed in the Technical Specifications since the replace-ment transmitters are equal or better in loop accuracy and rcsponse time of the instruments being replaced. The transmitters deleted by the modification were non-safety, utilized for computer input only and had no control or actuation function.

The modification does not increase the probability of occurrence or conse-quence of an accident previously evaluated in the FSAR or create the possibil-ity of an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the FSAR. No Unreviewed Safety Question or environmental impact were found to exist as a result of the modification.

Modificatign: Turbine Lube Oil Tank Replacement (BA 412588 / J0s 28472 and 30040)

Description of Modificat_ian: This modification removed an empty 7,000 gallon Ammonium Hydroxide Storage Tank and replaced it with a 15,000 gallon Turbine Lube Oil Storage Tank. The new tank is located outdoors within a concrete containment pit and a concrete floor slab.

. Document Control Desk Attachment 1

. C311-92-2047 Page 12 l

Safety Evaluation Summary: This modification satisfied the requirements of 40 CFR 280 for underground storage tanks, which requires those tanks with hazardous liquids to be provided with release detection, tank tightness testing, or to be replaced depending on tank age. The systems modified were non-NSR and were not part of the Engineered Safeguards System. This modifica-tion did not affect the safety function of any interfacing systems and did not affect any accident scenario in the SAR. This modification did not constitute  !

an Unreviewed Safety Question.

liodification: Modification of Penetration #221ES and #222ES for OTSG Sleeving (BA 412597 / J0 34047) i Descriotion of fiqdification: This modification installed blank flanges on Penetrations #221ES AND #222ES, which penetrate the Reactor Building from the Turbine Building. The- flanged end pipes had their blank flanges removed to provide accessible openings for the temporary routing of electrical wires, cables and hoses required to support outage related work. For the 9R outage these-penetrations were used for OTSG tube sleeving, plugging, and oddy current operations.

M ety Evaluation Summary: The modification of Penetrations #221ES and #222ES provided accessible openings for the temporary routing of wires, cable and hoses from outside of the containment into the Reactor Building to support the OTSG outage activities. Instaliation of a blank flange outside the reactor Building and a blank flange inside the reactor Building will provide double isolation barriers at these two penetrations. The associated Penetration Pressurization tubing was removed when the pipe caps were cut from these two 9lectrical spare penetrations. However, the PP tobing connections are available to provide a tap for isolation barriers leak rate testing of pene-trations #221ES and #222ES via new valves PP-V227 and PP-V228, respectively.

This modification did not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequence of an accident or malfunction of equipment 1mportant to safety previously evaluated in the Final Safety Analysis Report since the integrity of pressure boundary and seismic boundary of the Containment isolation System are maintained. Therefore, this modification did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operation. This modification did not create a possibili-ty for an accident or malfunction of a different type from any previously identified in the FSAR because the design basis and system performance of the Containment Isolation system was not changed. This modification did not decrease the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any technical specification since the system performance and the safety function of the Containment Isolation system were not changed. This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

l Modification: NI 1 & 2 Changeover to NI 11 & 12 (BA 412598 / JO 38251)

Descriotion of Modit tcation: The existing NI-l and NI-2 Source Range Instru-ment Loops were susceptible to noise and difficult to maintain. As a result,

'the existing Bailey Heter Co. NI-l and NI-2 source range monitoring loops were k

.

  • Document Control Desk Attachment 1 e C511-92-2047 Page 13 disconnected from peripheral equipment. The NI-l and NI-2 loops will remain

-in place and functional until the modules and spared wiring are removed as a separate modification. That work is tentatively scheduled for refueling outage 10R.

The existing Gama-Metrics NI-ll and NI-12 have had their Source Range Channels extended by one decade to assure that the Tech S)ec requirement for greater than one decade everlap with Intermediate Range C1annels is satisfied.

The disconnected NI-l and NI-2 peripherals were connected to N1-ll and NI-12 through signal isolators. The signals were count rate, count rate of change, reactor building evacuation alarm, and rod stop control signal to the CRD control system. The isolated outp;ts from NI-l and NI-2 were connected to the RPS cabinets for future connection to a portable, audible transducer when needed by nuclear engineering.

Safety Evaluation Summary: Plant safety is enhanced by the design of the more .

reliable monitoring instrumentation. The modified instrumentation was ,

designed to operate during all modes of. plant operation. The modification was i

performed in accordance with existing seismic and electrical / physical separa-tion requirements. The modification did not affect the safety functions of any interfacing systems and did not affect the FSAR Chapter 14 accident analysis. It did not reduce the margin of safety. Therefore, this modifica-tion did not adversely affect nuclear safety and did not involvo an Unreviewed Safety Question or new environmental impact.

                                                                                                                                    • 1*:.***#****

Modification: RM-022/23 Redundant Power Supply Hodification (BA 412602 /

J0 37568)

Descriction of Modification: This modification corrected a lack of required physical separation between the 120 VAC power source cables for the Contain-ment High Range Radiation Monitors RM-G22/23. Redundant Class lE 120 VAC power source cables were provided for the aforementioned monitors. The modification also extended the fire detection system to the interior to PRF.

Safety Evaluation Summary: Installation of redundant, appropriately separated 120 VAC power cables to radiation monitors RM-G22/23 and a fire detector in panel PRF did not affect the safety functions of any interfacing systems and did not affect the FSAR Chapter 14 Accident Analysis. Therefore, this modification did not adversely affect nuclear safety and did not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question or new environmental impact.

Modification: Replacement of Seal Injection Filter (HU-F-4A) Phase 1 i (BA 412610 / JO 38925)

Descriotion of Modifica11pn: This modification is being performed in two (2) phases. The first ph6se concerns MU-F-4A only. The second phase, which affects.MU-F-48, is scheduled to be completed during cycle 9 or the 10R outage.

. Document Control Desk Attachment 1 e C311-92-2047 Page 14 This modification provided increased filtration of Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) seal injection water via the installation of new filter housings which can use larger and finer filter elements. This increased filtration optimizes seal performance and reduces the potential for unplanned (midcycle) seal mainte-  ;

nance._  ;

Safety Evaluation Summary: As a consequence of the greater filter element flow capability and lower pressure loss when filter element is dirty, the portion of the system affected by this modification will contribute lower 4 maximum pressure losses than the previous configuration. This has no effect on seal injection flow rate, seal leak off rate, letdown flow rate to maintain '

desired RCS inventory and seal injection pressure. There are no SAR or Technical Specification safety margins that were affected by this modifica-tion.- This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question. ,

ModifictUpD: Replacement of Main Generator and 1A/1B Auxiliary Transform-er Watt Hour Meters (BA 412702 / JO 3 023)

Descriotion of Modification: The modification replaced the existing watt hour metering (WHM) for the Main Generator and the 1A & IB Auxiliary Transformers  ;

with state-of-the-art programmable multi-functional meters. The new WHMs also aerform the functions for the Printing Demand Meters and the Main Transformer  !

.oss Compensator; therefore, these devices were disconnected and removed.

Safety Evaluation Summary: This modification replaced existing WHM with state-of-the-art programmable multi-functional meters. The reliability of the Main Generator CT and PT Circuits were improved by removal of transducers that i were no longer in use for control or indication functions. Thus the probabil-  :

ity of Main Generator malfunction due to a failure of.one of these devices was ,

eliminated. it did not interface with any NSR device, therefore, electrical isolation, single failure criteria, and environmental qualification were not 4 affected by the modification. Neither nuclear safety nor safe plant opera-tions were affected since the modification did not alter any control or protective device function. This modification did not constitute an Unre-  :

viewed Safety Question. ,

                                                                                                                                                            • i Modification:. HP Access Control Point / Hot instrument Repair Shop Reloca-tion (BA 418748 / J0s 12706 and 22759)

Descrintion of Modification: This modification affected the following facilities:  ;

e High volume during outages, through the HP access control point at elevation 306' of the Control Building caused congestion and delays in processing personnel in and out of the radiological areas. To allevi-ate this problem, a hallway was added for exiting the llP access control point separate from the hallway used for entering.

. Laboratory' space limitations made it difficult for the Chemistry l Department to perform water chemistry work. Thus, the secondary side

. Document Control Desk Attachment 1 j c C311-92-2047 l Page 15 )

l chemistry lab was enlarged to include a portion of the existing hot instrument repair shop.

e The hot instrument repair shop was relocated to a prefabricated in- l plant type office structure in the Chemical storage Building located at the *W elevation of the Auxiliary Building.

. The lunch room area for radiological controls workers was en1.rged by utilizing the remainin9 portion of the hot instrument repair shop.

Safety Evaluation Summar_v: There are no SAR or Technical S)ecification safety margins that were affected by this modification, None of tie above modifica-tions are nuclear safety related or required by the engineered safeguards system. Therefore, failure of any added component has no affect on the ability to shut the plant down safely. Failure of the HEPA fillers in the HVAC system for the new hot instrument repair shop could result in a release of radioactivity to the environment. However, the resultant quantity released would be the same as would be released upon failure of the llEPA filters in the HVAC system for the previous hot instrument repair shop. The amount of radioactivity released by this accident condition would be_ a small fraction of the limits set forth in 10 CFR 100, and would also be far below the design basis accident release amounts previously evaluated in the SAR. This modifi-cation did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Modification: Turbine Building South Addition (Operations Office Building)

Domestic Water and Fire Service Tie-ins (BA 418749 /

J0s 22382, 23676, 24653, 23636, ?7883 and 28170)

OnrLiption Of Modification: lhis modification provided fire Service water and Domestic water System connections for the Turbine Building South addition.

This facility is located on the south side of the Unit 1 Turbine Buildinq l

within the protected area. The Fire Service water connection provides a L supply line for the installed sprinkler systems (dry pipe spronkler and hose standpipe). The domestic water connection provides a cold water supply source for the plumbing in the new addition.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The probability of oCCurreDCe or Consequences of

an accident or malfunction of equipment Important to Safety previously evaluated in the SAR is not increased. The tie-in of the fire service yard main to the Turbine Building south addition did not impact the design capabil-ity of the yard fire main. The modif. cation did not increase the probability of-occurrence or the consequence of a malfunction of equipment since the new l components are of equal or better quality and the modification was performed per the original design codes. Additionally, the Post Indicator Valve (PIV) in the fire system permitted the isolation of the branch line without impact-ing the balance of the system. This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Modification: Replaceme;it of the 230 XV Digital fault Recorder (BA *18787

/ J0 40199)

DescriotionofMgitf_ication: The existing 230 XV substation Hathaway Auto fault Recording System was replaced by three Hathaway Digital fault Recorders (DFR). Each DfR is comprised of a Data Acquisition Unit (DAU), an independent printer unit, alarm relay assembly and fast transient fi'ter assembly. Each DAU is captble of recording 16 analog and 32 digital event parameters. Each DFR continuously scans all analog and event inputs at a preset rate, continu-ously overwriting old data. When triggered the system stores additional data resulting in acqalsition of prefault, fault and postfault data. The DFRs are  :

capable of providing critical chronological information such as location, time, nature and severity of faults along with the clearing time of protective devices and magnitudes of voltage and current. This data is essential in evaluating equipment performance and analyzing system stability.

The new DAVs monitor substation and transmission line, main generator, and main and auxiliary transformer voltage, current and protective devices.

Safety Evaluation Summary: Connection of the new digital inputs and transfer of the existing analog inputs to the DfRs did not affect the operation of any safety related equipme..t or systems. Safe plant operations have been improved by the ability to provide Operations and Engineering with a more effective means of evaluating equipment performance and analyzing system stability. The modification was a passive non-controlling addition which monitors the affected system's conditions and alarms.

The modification was classified as Regulatory Required due to the need to penetrate fire barriers. The fire barriers were rescaled in accordance with approved plant procedures and the Fire Hazards Analysis Report. A fire hazards analysis has been performed to evaluate the combustibles added by the new cable. There was no adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant operations. _This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Modification: Elimination of Deep Stuffing Boxes (CMR 0585M)

Descriotion Of Modification: This modification reduced the numbe' of packing rings in valves having deep stuffing boxes to five rings. To accomplish this, the carbon rings were inserted into the stuffing box chamber to (ffectively reduce the box depth. The valves were repacked using braided graphite wiper rings top and bottom and laminated graphite rings in between.

Lafety Evaluation Summr y: The originally installed packing leak-off configu-ration sacrificed reliable packing performance for the ability to collect leakage. The elimination of the leak-off provision and the reduction of the l amount of packing along with live-loading improved the reliability of the l packing thereby reducing the chance of leakage and improving maintainability of the valve packing. Therefore, this change did not increase the probability

Modification: Removal of Caustic Piping to CA-T2 (CHR 89-119)

Descriotion of Modificit.ign: The modification removed accessible piping between the IWT area in the Turbine Building and CA-T2 in the Auxiliary Building. The piping was abandoned as a caustic flow path because of a history of clogging, thermal damage and leaks for which no method for main-taining operability and reliability could be founi Liquid caustic is added by direct pumping of caustic drums to CA-T2.

Safety Evaluatiode?.utry: Evaluation identified no adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant operations since the safety analysis did not assume caustic supply from CA-T2. The SAR assumed margin of safety was not reduced since the supply of caustic from CA-T2 posi accident is not assumed in the Safety Analysis. The elimination of one of the non-safety grade methods of delivering caustic to the tank does not reduce the margin of safety. Neither an increase the probtbility of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR nor a possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated was created by the modification. The piping was not classified as Nportant to safety and not associated with equipe nt that was important to e dety. As c result of the piping demolition, a more reliable method of cauttic addition was provided. This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Modification: Replacement of RM-A5 and A15 Detectors (CHR 90-038_)

D u tr.iotion of Modification: The Mylar windows on the beta scintill dien detectors used in RM-A5 and AIS were subject to chemical attack from ths amonia hydroxide levels in the Condenser Offgas. Deterioration of ths protective Mylar film eventually resulted in damage to the scintillation diak i and affected detector response. On the recommendation of the detector versor, titanium end window detectors were installed for this application.

Safety Evaluation Sumary: The function of the detectors is to monitor main condenser vacuum exhaust noble gas activity in order to detect and provide indication of leakage between the primary and secondary systems. Estimates indicate that sensitivity to Xe-133 was maintained. With the exception of the detector end window film, all functional, physical and electrical characteristics of the replacement detector are identical to the original.

Evaluation identified no adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant operations.The modification did not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR, did not create the possibility of an accident or malfaction of a type different than previously evaluated and did not reduce the margin of safety defined in the basis of the Technical Specifi-cations. This modification did not constitute an threviewed Safety Question.

Modification: Instailation of Solar Induced Current Recorder (CHR 90-068)

Description of Modification: A geomagnetic current (GIC) recorder was installed and connected to the IB main transformer to monitor the magnitude of geomagnetically induced current resulting from solar magnetic disturbanc-es(i.e., sunspots). The purpose of this recorder is to supply information to monitor the effects of ccrrent induction v, the main step-up transformers and to determine if geomagnetically induced currents are going to ground via the high side aeutral of the THI main transformers.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The GIC recorder is a monitoring device only, and does not tie-in to any control / interlock circuits. Since the recorder is only a monitoring device, operating on a B0P power source, its operation does not adversely affect nuclear safety. This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Modification: WT-P-33A/B Suction Pressure Switch (CHR 50-101)

Description of Modifiglipjl: Remoial of the pressure switch (WT-PS-1355) from the suction of Lubrication Water Pumps WT-P-33A and B was accomplished to reduce inadvertent tripping of the operation pump. Pressure excursions of the filtered water supply exceed the margins of the precsure switch setpoint and can not be corrected by setpoint adjustment.

Safety Evaluation Summary: Evaluation of the removal of the pressure switch on the River Water Pumps Lubrication System (RWPLS) found no adverse affect on nuclear safety and safe plant operations. The function of the RWPLS was maintained without the susceptibility for inadvertent lube pump trips due to filtered water su; ply transients. Operability was found to be improved by the modification and the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR were not increased. Lack of interface with other plant systems established that the possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated was not created. No margin of safety defined in the basis of the Technical Specifications was reduced as a result of the modification. This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

[Lodification: Reactor Building Fire Detection System (CMR 90-110)

Eqscriotion of Modification: Thermal Heat Detectors replaced the ionization detectors in the Reactor Building D-Ring zones 2, 7 and 8.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The change of equipment did not affect the overall ability of the fire detection system to sense a fire and provide remote annunciation. For this reason, nuclear safety and safe plant operations are unaffected by the modification. The change to detectors operating on a different principle did not increase the probability of occurrence or the

Modificatiolt: Containment Isolation Test Connection Upgrade (CMR 90-154) i Descriotion of Modificatisn: The mcaification added Local Leak Rate Testing (LLRT) test connections outside the Reactor Building to maximize Operating Personnel efficiency to drain, vent and test the respective system penetra- l tions and support establishment of the LLRT_ configuration. '

Safety Evaluation Summary: The new capped test connections are passive components during plant cperations and fulfill their safety function as l 1solatian barriers. Installation of the test connections did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations. The test connections are within the test boundary for containment isolation valves that are periodical-ly tested in accordance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix J. They are thereby main-tained leak tight and no margin of safety defined in the basis of the Techni-cal Specifications was reduced as a result of the modification. The modifica-tion did not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR since the test connections maintain a passive prrssure boundary during Power Operations or when Refueling Containment Integrity _ is required.

Similarly, the possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different

than previor ly evaluated was not created. This modification did not consti-tute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Description of Modification: The normally locked r:losed damper AH-D-8A was manually opened and held open to provide make-up air to assist in increasing ventilation flow to the Intermediate Building for 322' elevation for heat removal.

Safety Evaluation Summary: Since the damper is a manual damper with no interface with any other system or controls, the action taken had no adverse

affect on any safety related system or controls. The damper was returned to its normally closed position prior to operating the Reactor Building Purge System. It was determined that there was no impact on nuclear safety or safe plant operations. This temporary modification did not constitute an Unre-viewed Safety Question.

Qgseriotion of Modif tsation: The tube plugging was performed to remove from service certain THI-1 OTSG tubes through use of B&W rolled and ribbed plugs.

The plugs were used in defective tubes to establish an adequately leak tight pressure boundary between the OTSG primary and secondary sides. Inconci 690 alloy were used.

Safety Evaluation Summary: Defective OTSG tubes were plugged as required by the established plugging criteria. Since the plugs met the sanie criteria as the remainder of the RCS pressure boundary, the probability and consequences of any analyzed accident occurring has not been increased. For the same reason, the margin of safety has not been decreased. B&W ribbed and rolled plugs comply with the applicable codes and standards governing safe operation of the plant. Testing demonstrated that the tube / plug joint met the leak-tightness- requirements of the THI-1 OTSG functional specifications.

The modification did not involve a radiological safety concern or a change to the plant environmental interfaces since the primary-to-secondary leakage was demonstrated -to be a fraction of the total leakage assumed in the basis for the plant Technical Specifications. Consequently, the release of radioactivi-ty will remain far below established limits since the pressure boundary will remain intact under normal, transient and accident conditions. This modifica-tion did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Mqdificatign: RMS Ratemeter Backpanel (BA 128086 / J0 9844)

Descriotion of Modification: This modification installed a jack / plug wiring arrangement on the RMS ratemeters. The majority of the Victoreen model 842 and 846-1 ratemeters have terminal strips on back of the ratemeters for making field connections. Because of the terminal strip connections and some maintenance activities, the wiring had shorted to ground and/or adjacent wiring, which caused loss of a vital bus. A jack and plug arrangement were added to the'back of the ratemeters. The existing terminal strips remain and are used to connect d e ratemeter to the new plug / jack.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification was not reduced. No RMS setpoints or interlocks were changed as a result of this modification. The implementation of this

nodification did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations.

l The ratemeters affected by this modification are not nuclear safety related.

Installation of plugs and jacks did not alter the operation of the ratemeter.

J0 28450)

Description of Modification: As des uned any alarms on the local IWTS annunciator also alarmed on control room annunciator PRF 7-2, "lWTS TROUBLE."

Additionally, the local IWFS annunciator also alarmed on control room annunci-ator PRF 8-2, "IWFS TROUBLE." To reduce operator burden the IWTS and IWFS annunciator logic was modified. This modification resulted in PRF 7-2 alarming when an IWTS local alarm is received. When PRF 7-2 is acknowledged in the Control Room the control room alarm light will stop flashing and remain visible. After the alarm is acknowledged locally the PRF 7-2 alarm light will extinguish. The sequence will be repeated for any additional alarm that is required to clarm locally and in the Control Room. Similar changes will be made to PRF 8-2.

Safety Evaluation Summary: The implementation of this modification did not adversely affect nuclear safety or safe plant operations. The IWTS and IWFS are not Nuclear Safety Related (NSR) nor do they interlock with any NSR systems. When a control room alarm is received from either IWTS or IWFS an auxiliary operator will be sent to the IWIS building to investigate the alarm.

If an operator cannot be sent to the building to acknowledge the local alarm any additional alarms will still alarm in the Control Room. Those alarms that have been deleted from input to the control room alarms have been reviewed by Plant Operations, Human Factors, and Engineering. These alarms were consid-ered to be non-critical and not requiring immediate operator response. The probability of occurrence or the consequence of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR was not in-creased. The IWFS and IWTS do not perform a safety related function and are not addressed in Chapter 14 of the SAR. This modification did not constitute an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Modification: 0/G KW Heter Replacement (BA 128112 / J0 34082)

Descrintion of Modification: The modification replaced the existing analog KW meter of each diesel generator, EG-Y-1A & IB, The power outputs from the OGs j as provided to the Control Room by the analog wattmeters had an accuracy of

approximately 2%. There was also potential reading error due to parallax.

Since the DGs are expected to be loaded near capacity during the worst case accident, the DGs could have been overloaded inadvertently beyond the

, manufacturer's approved rating if the meter was reading lower than the actual l load. In order to improve the accuracy of the DG meter, the existing meters l were replaced with digital meters with combination bargraph/ digital displays.

l The replacement of the KW meter improved the accuracy of the digital meter

.from 2% to less than 0.3%.

tiodification: EFW Auto-Start ES Test Lights (BA 412579 / JO 28468)

Cascription of Modification: To facilitate testing of the emergency feedwater pump ES blocking and auto-start contacts, the modification eliminated the need to open sliding links and connect an ohmmeter for contact verification. The Group 2 blocking contact was changed to a Group I contact and an indicating light was installed to indicate the contact status. The light-is normally illuminated and goes off while the blocking contact is open for block 1 loading and comes on again when the auto-start contact closes during block 4 loading.

Safety Evaluation Summary: Evaluation of the modification found that changing the Group 2 to a Group 1 ES blocking contact only affects ES testing and does not alter the circuit operatinn under actual ES conditions. The indication

lights provide verificatior. .. contact operation during testing only. For the same reasons, safe plant operation and nuclear safety were not affected by the modification. Similarly,. the modification did not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR.

Mtii1Ral193: Reactor Building Sump Screen Hatches ' W 96 187)

Ducdp_ tion _ of Mqdification:

Stainless steel plate haten cevers were in-stalled on the Reactor Building Sump replacing the existic., screen hatch covers.

Mely_Inlultion Sumniary: Evaluation identified no adverse affect on nuclear safety or safe plant operations since there is no adverse affect on safety systems that depend on the RB sump to supply screened water after a t.0CA. The mudification did not increase the probability of occurrence or the consequenc-es of an accident or malfurction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the SAR since the head loss resulting from the new hatch covers is insignificant and more than accounted for by the conservative calculation of the DH and BS pump NPSH. The possibility of an accident or malfunction of a type different than previously evaluated was not created by the modification since the passive function of the sump screen is maintained. No margin (A safety defined in the basis of the Technical SH cifications was reduced as a result of the modification because pump DH and BS pump NPSH were unaffected.
