t B.4.4-33 4.4 CONTAINMENT SYSTEM TESTS Bases continued Several penetrations of the conw31nment vessel and the shield building could, in the event of leakage pait their isolation valves, result in leakage being conveyed across thc annulus by the penetrations themselves, thus bypassing the function of the Shield Building Ventilation System (Reference 5) Such leakage is estimated not to exceed .325% per day.
A special zone of the auxiliary building has minimum-leakage construc-tion and controlled access, and is designated as a special ventilation zone where such leakage would be collected by either of two redundant trains of the Auxiliary Building Special Ventilation System. This system, when activated, will supplant the normal ventilation and draw a vacuum throughout the zone such that all outleakage will be through particulate and charcoal filters which exhaust to the shield building exhaust stack.
The design basis loss-of-coolant accident was initially evaluated by the AEC staff (Reference 3) assuming primary containment leak rate of 0.5%
per day at the peak accident pressure. Another conservative assumption in the calculation is that primary containment leakage directly to the ABSVZ is 0.1% per day and leakage directly to the environs is 0.01% per day.
The resulting two-hour doses at the nearest SITE BOUNDARY and 30-day doses
~
at the low population zone radius of 1H miles are less than guidelines presented in 10CFR100.
Initial leakage testing of the shield building and the ABSV resulted in a greater inleakage tnan the design basis. The staff has reevaluated doses for these higher inleakage rates and found that for a primary containment leak rate of 0.25% per day at peak accident pres-sure, the offsite doses are about the same as those initially calculated for higher primary containment leakage and lower secondary containment in-leakage (Reference 6).

B.4.4-3 4.4 CONTAIUMENT SYSTEM TESTS Bases continued Several penetratic a of the containment vessel and the ,hield building could, in the event of leakage past the.r isolation valves, result in leakage being conveyed across the annulus by the penetrations themselves, thus bypassing the function of the Shielt Building Ventilation System (Reference 5). Such leakage is estimated act to exceed .025% per day.
A special zone of the auxiliary building has mindeum-leakage construc-tion and controlled access, and is designated as a special ventilation tone where such leakage would be collected by either of two redundant trains of the Auxiliary Building Special Ventilation System. This system, when activated, will supplant the normal ventilation and draw a vacuum throughout the zone cuch that all outleakage will be through particulate and charcoal filters which exhaust to the shield building exhaust stack.
The design basis loss-of-coolant accident was initially evaluated by the AEC staff (Reference 3) assuming primary containment leak rate of 0.5%
per day at the peak accident pressure. Another conservative assumption in the calculation is that primary containment leakage directly to the ABSVZ is 0.1% per day and leakage directly to the environs is 0.01% per day.
The resulting two-hour doses at the nearest SITE BOUNDARY and 30-day doses at the low population zone radius of IM miles are less than guidelines presented in 10CFR100.
Initial leakage testing of the shield building and the ABSV resulted in a greater inleakage than the design basis. The staff has reevaluated doses for these higher inleakage rates and found that for a j primary containment lesk rate of 0.25% per day at peak accident pres-sure, the offsite doses are about the same as those initially calculated for higher primary containment leakage and lover secondary containment in-leakage (Reference 6).

The Prairie Island Naclear Generating Plant is locatud on property owned ;
by Northern States Power (HSP) Company at a site on the west bank of the !
Mississippi River, epproximately 6 miles northwest of the city of Red Wing, Minnesota. The minimum distance from the center line of either reactor to the site exclusion boundary is 115 meters, and the low population aone distance is 1 1/2 milea. The nearest population center of 25,000 or more people is South Saint Paul. These site characteristics comply with definitions in 10CFR100 (Reference 1). !
The U.S. Army Corp of Engineers controls the land within the exclusion ,
area that la not owned by NSP. The Corps has made an agreement with NSP to prevent residential construction on this land for the life of the plant (Reference 2).
These specifications use atmospheric diffusion factors based on the NRC ,
staff evaluations. Its evaluation of accidental airborne releaser is '
based on a relative concentration of 9.8 x 10** seconde per cubi: meter at the site boundary. Its evaluation of routine releases in based on a relative concentration of 1.5 x it. seconds per cubic meter (Reference 3).
I The flood of re ord in 1965 preduced a water surface elevation cf +688 feet MSL at the site. The calculated probable maximum flood (pMF) level is +703.6 seet mean sea level (PSL), and the estimated wave runup could reach +706.7 feet MS?.. .( See Section 2.4.2 of this report.) Plant grade level is +695 feet MSL.
Flood protection structures have been provided. The two turbine support facilities, the common auxiliary building, and the two shield buildings have been physically connected by a concrete flood wall, most of the length of which constitt , a the concrete foundation walls for the various buildings. The top of this wall-supports the metal siding for the
-buildings at about elevation +705 feet MSL. Fourteen doors through the flood wall, or into the various buildings (including the separate screen house), are provided with receivers for the erection.of flood protection ,
panels to prevent flood water from reaching safet,' related facilities.
The cooling cater pumps in the screenhouse are designed to operate up to i JJood level of +695 feet MSL without flood protection measures, and up to a level of +707 feet MSL with the erection of flood protection panels.
The main transformer foundation is at +695 feet MSL. The transformer will function to a flood level of+698 feet MSL.

6.7 Ifigh Radiation Area !
\ '
A. Pursuant to 10CFR20, paragraph 20.1601(c), in lieu of the requirements of 10CFR20.1601, each high radiation area, as defined in 20CFR29, in which the intensity of radiation is greater than 100 i mrem /hr but less than or equal to 1000 mrem /hr, shall be barricaded l and conspicuously posted asin high radiation area and entrance thereto shall be controlled by requiring issuance of a Radiation Work Permit (RWP) . Individuale qualified in radiation protection procedures (e.g., health physics technicians) or personnel continuously escorted by such individuals may be exempt from the RWP [
issuance requirement during the performance of their assigned duties '
in high radiation areas with exposure rates less than or equal to 1000 mrem /hr, provided th y are otherwise following plant radiation protection procedures for entry into such high radiation areas.
r
-Any individual or group of individuals permitted to enter such areas shali be provided with or accompanied by one or more of the following:
- 1. A radiation monitoring device that continuously indicates the radiation dose rate in the area. .
t
- 2. A radiation monitoring device that continuously integrates the 5 radiation dose rate in the area and alarms when a preset integrated dose is received. Entry into such areas with this monitoring device mai be made after the dose rate levels it. the area have been established and personnel are aware of them.
- 3. An individual qualified in radiation protection procedures with a radiation dose rate monitoring device, who is responsible for providing positive control over the activities within the area and shall perform periodic radiation surveillance at the f requency specified by the radiation protection manager.
B. In addition to the requirements of Specification 6.7.A above, areas j with radiation levels greater than 1000 mrem /hr shall be provided with locked or continuously guarded doors to prevent unauthorized entry and the keys shall be maintained under the administrative control of the Shift Supervisor on duty or health physics supervision. Doors shall remain locked except duting periods of access by personnel under an approved RWP that shall specify the dose !
rate levels in the immediate work creas and the maximum allowable stay times for individuals in those areas. In lieu of the stay time specification of the RWP, direct or remote (such as closed circuit TV or transmitting radiation monitoring device) continuous surveillance ,
may te made by personnel qualified in radiation protection procedures to provide positive exposure control over the activities being performed within the area.

e B.4.4-3 4.4 COfTTAINMENT SYSTEM TESTS Elian continued Several penetrations of the containment vessel and the shield building could, in the event of leakage past their isolation valves, result in leakage being conveyed across the annulus by the penetrations themselves, thus bypassing the function of the Shield Building Ventilation System (Reference 5). Such leakage is estimated not to exceed .025% per day.
A special zone of the auxiliary building has minimum-leakage construc-tion and controlled access, and is designated as a special ventilation zone where such leakage would be collected by either of two redundant trains of the Auxiliary Building Special Ventilation System. This system, when activated, will supplant the normal ventilation and draw a r.cuum throughout the zone such that all outleakage will be through particulate and charcoal filters which exhaust to the shield building exhaust stack.
The design basis loss-of-coolant accident was initially evaluated by the AEC staff (Reference 3) assuming primary containment leak rate of 0.5%
per day at the peak accident pressure. Another conservative assumption in the calculation is that primary containment leakage directly to the ABSVZ is 0.1% per day and leakage directly to the environo is 0.01% per day.
The resulting two-hour doses a*. the nearest SITE BOUNDARY and 30-day doses at the low population zone radius of 1H miles are less than guidelines presented in 10CFR100.
Initial leakage testing of the shield building and the ABSV resulted in a greater inleakage than the design basis. The staff has resvaluated doses for these higher inleakage rates and found that for a primary containment leak rate of 0.25% per day at peak accident pres-aure, the offsite doses are about the same as those initially calculated for higher primary containment leakage and lower secondary containment in-leakage (Reference 6).
