There were 45 unscheduled shutdowns recorded during the year 1 July 1988 through June 30, 1989. Of these shutdowns, 23 were Rod Run-ins (RRIs) and 22 were scrams.
Twenty two of the unscheduled shutdowns (8 RRIs, 14 scrams) were due to NI drawer, detector or detector cabling failure generating a spurious shutdown signal (no actual high power or short period indicated). Many of the spurious shutdowns I-1
I !
c were coincident with the annunciator receiving and clearing the 95% downscale l trip for the NI instruments. The Electronics Technicians confirmed that a 1
i l
ground loop existed in the NI system when the channel #4 detector intermittently ]
I grounded against its drywell. An anodized detector sleeve has been manuf actured j to increase the resistance between the channel #4 detector and ground. The DC power supply cables to the NI system were also found to be degraded due to heat and age and have been replaced.
- Of the remaining unscheduled shutdowns, nine were manually initiated by the duty operator in order to repair equipment, eight were due to personnel errors and two were due to loss of electrical power to the Facility.
JULY 1988 The reactor operated continuously in July with the following exceptions:
I four shutdowns fo scheduled maintenance and one unscheduled shutdown.
On July 19, a reactor scram and isolation occurred due to high radiation detected by the reactor bridge and exhaust air plenum' radiation monitors. All l personnel exited the containment building per procedure and remained outside until health physicists cleared the containment building for re-entry after checking radiation levels from the remote station and performing a walk-through survey.
The scram and isolation occurred when a Reactor Services' technician raised a neutron detector experiment to within several feet of the pool surface in an attempt to obtain a lower neutron flux indication. This action was counter to previous instructions not to move the detector experiment without operator assistance. The reactor bridge radiation monitor. tripped when the radiation level at the pool surface reached 50 mR/hr. The detector experiment was immediately lowered to a secure position and all personnel exited the contain-ment building.
1-2
iI The technician involved was no longer allowed to work on experiments in the reactor pool. The reactor was then refueled and returned to normal operation.
Major maintenance items for July included replacing detectors for nuclear instrument channels #4 and #5.
AUGUST 1988 The reactor operated continuously in August with the following exceptions:
four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance; and six unscheduled shutdowns.
~
On August 10 and again on August 31, a rod not in contact with magnet rod l run-in occurred when control blade "A" separated from its raagnet during routine shimmi ng. In both cases, control blade "A" was being withdrawn to near its upper travel limit of 26 inches. Af ter inspection of the anvil, magnet and j guide tube alignment, the-blade was manually pull tested and was found to have a slight increase in pull weight between 25 and 26 inches. The cause for this was f
l
- determin?d to be bearing roughness in the upper inch of travel on this offset mechanism. This particular control blade offset was replaced September 8,1988 as part of its normal two year cycle. f On August 10, after reaching criticality during a normal startup, the shift supervisor initiated a manual rod run-in to take the reactor subcritical as per Standard Operating Procedure in order to resolve a discrepancy between the esti-mated critical position (ECP) and the actual critical oanked rod position. The l
I reactor physicist concluded that he had failed to consider the Xenon contribu- ~i tion of two fuel elements in this core which had been used in the previous core.
Once the Xenon concentration from the two fuel elements were included in the ECP l calculation, the differential between the ECP and the actual critical rod position was within accepted limits and the startup continued with no further problems.
I I-3

On August 11, after reaching critical during a normal startup, the shift supervisor again initiated a manual rod run-in to resolve uncertainties about the flux trap reactivity worth. After consultation with the reactor physicist, the reactor was shutdown, the flux trap was removed and the strainer was instal-led. A startup to criticality was then performed to determine critical rod-bank
' position with the flux trap removed. This measurement indicated that the flux trap reactivity worth was within technical specification limits and that the initial prestartup uncorrected ECP estimate was too high. A normal startup was then completed with no further problems.
On August 23, a reactor loop low flow scram occurred. .No ' actual low flow condition was indicated on any instrumentation. A subsquent compliance check on reactor loop flow transmitters 912A and 912E found the "A" loop scram set 50 gpm too high. The normal flow maintained per loop is 1830 to 1850 gpa (Techni-cal Specification limit is 1625 gpm/ loop). The scram setpoint is conservatively set at 1725 + 25 gpm. In this instance, the scram setpoint was 1790, close enough to normal flow that spurious variations in flow initiated the scram.
This scram setpoint was reset to the proper position and the transmitter was ,
tested satisf actorily. The reactor was then refueled and returned to normal operation. The scraa setpoint was checked on each of two subsequent maintenance days to ensure it was not drifting.
On August 31, a manual scram was initiated by the duty operator when a ladder being carried in by a painter became lodged in the outer personnel air-lock door, rendering it inoperatle. The door safety edge failed to function properly and allowed the door to close on the ladder. The safety edge and its connecting cable were replaced and tested satisfactorily. The reactor was then returned to normal operation.
Major maintenance items for August included: replacing N. I. channel 5/6 chart drive motor; repairing the manual clutch on the outer airlock door; I-4 I
replacing N.1. channel #3 detector; and replacing the safety edge and its con-necting cable on the outer personnel airlock door.
I SEPTEMBER 1988 The reactor operated continuously in September with the following excep-tions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and five unscheduled shutdowns.
On September 8, a rod not in contact with magnet rod run-in occurred when control blade "D" disengaged from its magnet during a normal reactor startup.
The lower guide tube housing was realigned and the anvil surf ace was cleaned.
A normal reactor startup was then completed with no further problems.
On September 16, a nuclear instrument channel #6 high power rod run-in occurred when the reactor was placed in auto control with the power level set meter indication approximately 8% higher than the wide range monitor (channel #4)
I indication.
i This occurred after the wide range monitor drawer amplifier feed-I back potentiometer had been adjusted to indicate a lower reading. The operators failed to lower the power level set meter indication to approximately 3% below the #4 indication as called for by procedure. The rod run-in was caused when the wide range monitor servo unit called for a regulating blade withdrawal to make up the difference between the power level set meter indication and channel _
~
- 4 indication. This action raised channel #6 indication to 114% (actual power was calculated to be 10.94 MW) which resulted in the rod run-in. The rod run-in was reset, the power level set was lowered to the proper position and the reac-tor was returned to normal- operation. The operators involved were instructed to follow proper procedure.
On September 21, a channel #4 high power rod run-in occurred several min-utes after a cooling tower fan had been shifted from slow to fast speed during
~
normal operations. The increased cooling resulting from the fan shift lowered the primary temperature. Normally the regulating blade would automatically be I-5
inserted to counteract the subsequent reactivity addition. However, the regu-lating blade failed to respond in the aatomatic mode which resulted in an increase in the power range nuclear instrument indications and the subsequent rod run-in. The duty operator reset the rod run-in but found that the regu-lating blade would not respond in manual or automatic control. The reactor was then shut down to determine the reason for the regulating blade failure. The problem was determined to be a loose set screw in the regulating blade reducer coupling which caused.a failure of the drive mechanism. Electronics technicians
- replaced the coupling and the reactor was refueled and returned to normal opera-tions. The details of the regulating blade failure were reported in a Licensee Event Report dated October 19, 1988.
On September 29, a manual scram war initiated when the duty operator observed that nuclear instrument channel #3 (Intermediate Range Monitor) had failed downscale during normal operation. The detector and cables for channel
- 3 were rep'.ded and tested satisfactorily and returned to operation. The
~
details of this nuclear instrument failure and the corrective actions taken were reported in a Licensee Event Report dated October 28, 1988.
Later on September 29, a manual scram was initiated by the shift supervisor 20 minutes after a normal startup when he observed that there was a 10 tempera-ture discrepancy between primary heat exchange RTD's 980A and 980B. The con-nections to the RTD's for 980A and 980B were checked for looseness or oxidation.
These connections had been disconnected as part of Compliance Check CP-8B earlier in the day, September 29. The calibration of the RTD's were checked satisfactorily and after reconnecting the leads the 980A and 980B indications -
were in close agreement. The reactor was returned to normal operation. The details and corrective actions taken with respect to this temperature dis-crepancy were reported in a Licensee Event Report dated October 28, 1988.
I I-6 I
Major maintenance items for September included: performing the biennial changeout of control blade offset "A"; rebuilding the 16 inch exhaust isolation valve "A"; completing the removal of the "N-6" and "P-6" irradiation wedges and installation of graphite reflector assemblies "SA" and "6-C: in their positions;.
replacing the regulating blade reducer coupling: removing "L-6" irradiation wedge and installing graphite wedge "5-C"; replacing channel #3 detector and cables; reinstalling the "N-6" irradiation wedge in "N" position; and replacing graphite wedge "5-C" with wedge "5-A".
OCTOBER 1988 The reactor operated continuously in October with the following exceptions:
four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance. There were no unscheduled shutdowns.
During the month, Nuclear; Regulatory Commission inspectors performed unannounced inspections of Emergency Planning, Physical Security and Special i
Nuclear Material accountability.
One major maintenance evolution completed in October was the painting of the containment building internal surface with an impermeable compound. Con-struction commenced on a building addition to house a new emergency generator.
Plans were finalized regarding modifications to the Facility ventilation exhaust system.
I NOVEMBER 1988 -
The reactor operated continuously in November with the following excep-tions: four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and five unscheduled shutdowns.
On November 9, a power level interlock scram occurred when the-solenoid for valve 546-B failed. Valve 546-B is one of the two (redundant) in-pool convec-tion cooling loop valves which opens on loss of primary coolant. The failure of the solenoid caused the valve to fail open which permitted coolant bypass flow around the core. The resulting reduction in core flow was sensed by core aP l-7 t___.~_________.________ _ _ _ . . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , _ _ _ _ . ,
I pressure sensor 929, which immediately initiated the scram. The primary and pool coolant systems remained in operation, providing normal cooling after the shutdown. The solenoid was replaced and the reactor was refueled and returned to normal operation.
On November 11, a nuclear instrument anomaly scram occurred when the detector for the nuclear instrument power range monitor (channel #5) failed.
The detector was replaced and tested satisfactorily and the reactor was refueled and returned to normal operation. _
l On November 20, a manual rod Pun-in was initiated when the regulating blade was observed to be slower than normal responding to decreases in reactor power in its automatic mode. Subsequent investigation revealed that the ball plunger which provides the mechanical linkage between the regulating rod drive gear box This loose connection allowed andballlscrewhadloosenedduetovibrations.
the gear' box output shaft to slip under the load of lifting the regulating blade and offset arm but it did not slip lowering the regulating blade and offset arm. In this mode of operation, the regulating blade was capable of responding to any positive reactivity addition and could actuate the regulating rod auto-matic rod run-ins ('10% withdrawn and bottomed) if needed. The ball plunger was
~
treated with locktite and was retightened. The regulating blade was exercised over its full travel. The reactor was refueled and returned to normal opera-tion. _
On November 20, with the reactor subtritical during a normal reactor start-up, a short period scram occurred when the detector for the intermediate range monitor channel #3 failed. The detector and -cables for this channel were rc-placed and tested satisfactorily.
On November 28, a manual scram was initiated when the regulating blade was observed to be not responding in either its automatic or manual mode. Subsequent investigation revealed that the regulating blade gear box output shaft had I-8 I
sheared. Due to the recent repetitive regulating blade drive problems, the pull weight of the blade was tested over the full travel length and was found to be correct. The shaft was replaced and the regulating blade operation was tested and found tn be satisf actory. The details of this regulating blade failure were reported in a Licensee Event Report dated December 27, 1988.
Major maintenance items for November included: replacing the solenoid for I valve 546-B (in-pool convective cooling loop); replacing channel 15 detector; replacing channel #3 detector and cables; and replacing the gear box output shaft for the regulating blade drive.
~
DECEMBER 1988 The reactor operated continuously in December with the following excep-tions: seven shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and five unscheduled shut-downs.
Twice on December 17 and once on December 18, a nuclear instrument channel
~
- 6 (power range monitor) high power rod run-in occurred. In each case, no l actual high power condition was observed on any nuclear instrumentation or related system. The rod run-ins were reset and power was restored within several minutes. After the second of these rod run-ins, the reactor was shut down and the electronic technicians replaced the rod run-in/downscale trip unit -
for channel #6. After the third rod run-in, the reactor was shut down and NI channel #5 and #6 drawers were swapped in an attempt to isolate the problem to the drawer or detector if the problem recurred. --
. Later, on December 18, channel #6 high power scram occurred with, once
~
again, no actual high power condition observed. The cables connecting the
! detector for this channel were subsequently discovered to be degraded, and were suspected to be the source of the spurious rod run-ins and scram. The cables I-9 o_
and detector for channel #6 were replaced and rested satisfactorily. The reactor was then returned to operation with no further problems of this type.
On December 31, a spurious nuclear instrument channel #3 (intermediate range monitor) short period scram occurred. The cause for the scram could not be determined. All of the major drawer components, detector cables and con-nectors for this channel were checked, and no obvious malfunctions or discrep-ancies were discovered. The reactor was refueled and returned to normal opera-tion. On the next maintenance day, January 8,1989, further investigation of channel #3 revealed that the insulation for the power lead to channel #3 was brittle and cracked in places. This cable was replaced.
Major maintenance items for December included: changing out the inboard bearing on primary pump 501A; replacing channel #3 detector and cables; re-placing the rod run-in/downscale trip unit in channel #6 drawer; and replacing channel #6 detector and cables. l I JANUARY 1989 The reactor operated continuously in January with the following exceptions:
four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and one unscheduled shutdown.
t On January 13 a reactor scram was initiated by the failure of relay 2K2.
This relay is located in the yellow leg of the scram system and initiates an evacuation / isolation annunciator alarm and a reactor scram. No other isolation /
evacuation functions (i.e., horns, valves, doors) are initiated by this relay.
The relay was replaced and tested satisfactorily.
Reactor Operations' personnel performed the annual in-house emergency preparedness drill satisfactorily. A reactor operator written examination and operating test was administered by a Nuclear Regulatory Commission examiner l January 18 and 19.
1-10 I
Major maintenance items for January included: loading eight spent fuel elements into the National Lead cask and transferring it to the beamport floor
.for temporary storage; replacing relay 2K2; and renewing NI channels #5 and #6 power leads.
I FEBRUARY 1989 The reactor operated continuously in February with the following exceptions:
four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and five unscheduled shutdowns.
On February 2, a nuclear instrument channel #6 Nuclear Instrument Anomaly scram occurred from what was thought to be a malfunction in the channel #6 drawer voltage regulator. The voltage regulator module was replaced and a nuclear instrument check was completed satisfactorily. On two subsequent startup attempts, the reactor scrammed while approaching 10 megawatts 'as the channel #4, I #5, or #6 downscale annunciation alarn cleared.
i There was no safety system scram annunciation or any indication of an actual ~ power increase on either occasion. The specific causes for these scrams were undetermined but it was felt that they had occurred as a result of an annunciator ground loop problem or RF interference problem generated by the annunciator relays.
~
On February 10, 1989, a reactor scram occurred coincidently with the channel
- 4, #5, or #6 downscale annunciation alarm. On February 16, another reactor scram occurred coincident with a regulating blade 60% withdrawn annunciation alarm.
Each time no power channel indicated an actual high power and no safety system scram was annunciated. The similarity and timing of these and previous unsched-uled shutdowns again appeared to indicate an annunciator grounding problem, or RF l-
~
interference problem generated by the annunciator relays. In order to alleyiate these problems, electronics technicians replaced the channel #4, #5, or #6 downscale annunciator cable, replaced missing connection box covers, and rerouted I-11 l
L____
some annunciator cables. They have also replaced the cables between the 124 volts DC power supplies which are common to all nuclear instruments and each
- instrument drawer. The 110 volts AC power lead to the nuclear instrument DC power supplies (2PS1, 2PS2) was also replaced. These cables showed signs of degrading due to age.
Major maintenance items for February included: replacing the voltage regu-
.I lator in N1 channel #6; replacing the drawer inoperative /high power trip unit module for N1 channel #6; replacing the channel #4, #5, or #6 downscale annuncia-tor cable; replacing the cables between the 124 volts DC power supply and each NI drawer;. and replacing the 110 volts AC to the nuclear instruments power supplies.
t1 ARCH 1989 The reactor operated continuously in March with the following exceptions:
five shutdowns for scheduled maintenance and one unscheduled shutdown.
On liarch 1, the reactor scrammed due to a momentary site electrical power interruption which was verified by the University Power Plant. The reactor was refueled and returned to normal operation. In a letter dated August 3,1989, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission withdrew the violation based on additional informa-tion provided by 11URR staff at a June 20,_1989 11anagement Meeting.
March 6 through liarch 10, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission performed a team routine safety inspection of the reactor. The findings of this team inspection ,
were reported to liURR in a letter and Notice of Violation dated liay 4,1989. The .
11URR staff submitted responses to this Nuclear Regulatory Comission letter and Notice of Violation in letters dated June 7,1989.
l 11ajor maintenance items for fiarch included: replacing the outer personnel airlock door drive motor and gearbox assembly; repairing the clutch on the outer I personnel airlock door; completing the biennial changeout of control blade offset j l
"D"; and renewing the power cord on the fission product monitor. ;
I I-12
I APRIL 198.9_
E The reactor operated continuously in April with the following exceptions:
four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance; and eight unscheduled shutdowns.
On April 3, a channel #5 (power range monitor) high power rod run-in occurred soon af ter placing the reactor in automatic control upon reaching ten megawatts. It was determined that the indicated poder on channel #5 was approx-imately 109% when the reactor was placed in automatic control.
Channel #5 indication subsequently rose to the rod run-in trip set point I- of 114% before the automatic insertion of the regulating blade compensated. The power level indications on the two other power range manitors were within normal l_
operating linits. The rod run-in was reset and the reactor power level set point was adjusted so that indicated power would be lower before again placing the reactor in automatic control. The operators involved in this startup were instructed to pay closer attention to their power indications during this critical' phase of the startup.
On April 7, a reactor scram and isolation was caused by the accidental de-energizing of the Elgar AC line conditioner. While an operator was cleaning up an ink spill, the on/off switch for the line conditioner was inadvertently bumped, de-energizing the unit. The Elgar AC line conditioner supplies power to (among other things) the area radiation monitoring system evacuation and isola-tion relays. These relay contacts opened when the line conditioner was de-I energized and this caused the scram and isolation. The reactor was subsequently The operator involved was instructed to be refueled and returned to operation.
more careful when working around reactor instrumentation.
~
On April 18, a channel #4 (wide range monitor) high-power rod run-in occurred. There were no indications of actual high power on any reactor instru-mentation. Af ter determining that all reactor systems and indications appeared I I-13 I
' normal, the rod run-in was reset and a return to power was attempted. Another rod run-in occurred as reactor power passed through 95% and the channel #4, #5,
- 6 downscale annunciator alarm cleared. No other abnormal indications were observed on any instrumentation. Two additional attempts were made to regain power when trying to isolate this problem, both resulting in rod run-ins with no annunciations and again no abnormal indications. The reactor was then shut down to replace a suspected faulty channel #4 downscale alarm / rod run-in dual trip unit. The dual trip unit was replaced and a hot reactor startup wasj attempted.
As reactor power passed through 95%, a rod run-in occurred which appeared to be coincident with the channel #4 downscale alarm clearing. No other annunciations or abnormal indications were observed. The following actions were taken during i the remainder of the day in an attempt to locate and correct the cause of the rod run-ins: the original trip unit in channel #4 drawer was reinstalled and i its trip set points were checked; the moveable contacts for relay 2K35 (channel
- 4, #5, #6 downscale annunciation) were replaced; the channel #4, #5, #6 down-scale annunciation module was replaced; the spare trip actuator amplifier and non-coincident logic unit nodules were installed in the rod ran-in positions; l the channel #4 nuclear instrament detector and cables were replaced; and the inside of the dry well for channel #4 was cleaned.
Electronics technicians confirmed that the primary cause for this series of rod run-ins was an intermittent ground loop created when the detector for I channel #4 became grounded (< 500 k ohms resistance) against its drywell.
Variations in the resistance measurements between the detector and the drywell for channel #4 were found to be detector position specific, indicating that some of the anodizing on the inside of the drywell is worn to the point that bare metal is exposed. Machine Shop personnel have constructed an anodized sleeve I which will be used to surround the detector and reduce the likelihood of this
]'
type problem.

I On April 29, a manual rod run-in was initiated when a duty operator noticed fluctuations in primary heat exchanger temperature indication provided l by temperature element 980B. No other temperature anomalies were indicated on any other monitors. An electronics technician isolated the problem to a faulty transmitter for temperature element 980B. The transmitter was replaced, tested, and a compliance check was performed satisfactorily. The reactor was refueled and returned to normal operation.
14ajor maintenance items for April included: replacing the moveable con-tacts for relay 2K35 (channel #4 #5, #6 downscale annunciation); replacing the channel #4, #5, #6 downscale annunciator module; installing the spare trip actuator amplifier and non-coincident logic unit modules in the rod run-in position; replacing the channel #4 detector and cables; replacing the trans-mitter for primary heat exchanger temperature element 980B. During the month, 32 depleted fuel elements were shipped to Idaho National Energy Laboratory, Idaho Falls, Idaho.
14AY 1989 The reactor operated continuously in liay with the following exception:
four scheduled shutdowns for maintenance. There were no unscheduled shutdowns this month.
liajor maintenance items for liay included: performing the annual contain-ment building leak rate test; completing a radioactive waste shipment (irradiated) metal hardware); installing a sample irradiation wedge in position 5A after re-moving the solid graphite wedge; and installing new building ventilation exhaust fan (EF-14); installing fiodification Package #89-2, which jumpers out the blade full in photo cell when the control blade drop timer switch is turned on. This ensures that the control blade drop time is obtained from the photo cell that is set at the blade 20% withdrawn position.
l 1-15
I JUNE 19,8,9, The reactor operated continuously in June with the following exceptions:
four shutdowns for scheduled maintenance; and eight unscheduled shutdowns.
On June 3, a manual rod run-in was initiated when an operator visually observed that the drive chain for one of two regulating blade rod run-in functions was not attached to its drive sprocket. With the reactor shut down, the chain was reattached to the sprocket wheel and the tension was adjusted. A ,
compliance check to verify the operability of the regulating blade rod run-in functions was completed satisf actorily. A Licensee Event Report detailing the circumstances of this event was sent to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on June 15,1989.
On June 5, while the reactor was subcritical during a normal startup, a nuclear instrument channel #4 (wide range monitor) high-power rod run-in occurred. No actual high power condition was indicated on any instrumentation.
Electronics technicians attributed the probable cause of the rod run-in to .
detector cable deterioration which caused internit t eat signal spikes. They replacai tha following items for channel #4: the dual trip unit (for the rod run-in and the 95% downscale); the 95% downscale relay K58; the detector and The reactor was then refueled and returned to normal operation._
cables.
On June 9, a nuclear instrument channel #6 (power range monitor) high power rod run-in occurred while an operator was in the process of adjusting the gain j I_ potentiometer to lower indicated power for channel #4. The duty operator failed i i
to place the reactor in manual control prior to beginning this procedure. Con-sequently, a high power condition was created when the regulating blade auto-abtically withdrew to compensate for the mismatch between the channel #4 indication and the power level set. The channel #6 power level indication was I documented as 105% approximately five minutes prior to this event. Channel #6 l I I-16
indicated power increased 9% to reach the 114% high power rod run-in trip.
(This corresponds to a power level of 10.78 MW.)
After determining the cause for the rod run-in, the duty operator reset the rod run-in and the reactor was subsequently returned to normal operation.
The operators involved in this event were instructed to follow proper proce-dures and to assist each other in avoiding errors of this type.
On June 19, a manual rod run-in was initiated during a normal startup when the position indication transmitter for control blade "D" became stuck at the 7.99 inch position. The reactor was subcritical at this blade height and the drive mechanisms for all of the control blades were functioning normal.ly. The 8.00 inch digit on the position indication transmitter was discovered to be mechanically bound. The position indication transmitter was disassembled and lubricated so that its actuators worked freely. A normal startup was then completed with no further pro'>1e is of this type. f ,
On June 21, two nJclear instrument channel #3 (intermediate range monitor) short period scrams occurred. In both cases, the reactor was operating at I 10 MW and no indication of an actual power level change or short period was indicated on any instrumentation. The intermediate range short period rod run-in and scrams are designed to assure protection of fuel e1~ements from <
continuous startup rod withdrawal accident (HSR, Add. 5, Section 5). If an
. actual power transient had occurred at 10 MW, the three power rLnge instrument scram and rod run-in trips would have occurred before a short period trip could occur. The cause of the scrams was subsequently traced to faulty detector cables. The detect er nnd cables for channel #3 were replaced and tested satis-factorily. The reactor was then returned to normal operation.
On June 22, the reactor scracned due to a momentary site electrical power interruption which occurred during a thunderstorm. This was verified by the University Power Plant.
1-17 I
I On June 23, a channel #5 (power range moniter) high power rod run-in occurred shortly after the reactor had undergone an auto shim sequence. (At the regulating blade height position corresponding to 20% of full travel, the con-trol blades are automatically prograraned in until the regulating blade 60%
position is reached.) The regulating blade reached the fully withdrawn position during the last automatically programmed control blade step insertion. The duty operator then shinmed the control blades out to allow the regulating blade to drive in. However, the channel #5 indication increased approximately 9% to the rod run-in set point of 114% before the regulating blade could automatically I _
compensate by driving in. The rod run-in was reset and the proper operation of the regulating blade was observed before returning the reactor to the desired power level.
The timing sequence for the auto-shim circuit was examined and reset so I that the regulating blade would not fully withdraw during this sequence. The operator _ involved in the control blade movement was instructed to observe the power level indications more closely when shimming the control blades.
On June 20, Messrs. A. Bert Davis, Regional Administrator and Ed Greenman, Director Division of Reactor Projects of Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region III met with reactor management to discuss _ items from the March 6-10 team in-spection. The MURR's Director's office also provided Mssrs. Davis and Greenman with an overview of MURR's research, service and educational activities.
Major maintenance items for June included: replacing the dual trip unit,
'~
the 95% downscale relay K58, and the detector and cables for N. I. channel #4; installing new area radiation monitoring system connectors in the containment penetration plate; installing an interlock between the pool isolation valve (V-509) and the pool demineralized pump (P-513B); replacing primary pump 501B; and replacing N. I. channel #3 detector and cables.

I SECTION I ADMINISTRATIVE OPERATING POLICIES I.1 Purpose To establish methods of operation for the reactor and associated systems which assure safety and performance within the technical specifications set forth for the University of Missouri Research Reactor.
I.2 Scope I These procedures are not to be construed to constitute a part of 4 the technical specifications. In event of any discrepancy between I the information given herein and the technical specifications, limits set forth in the technical specifications apply. Changes I to these procedures and to any other special operating or mainte-nance procedures which have safety significance must be reviewed by the Reactor Procedures Review Subcommittee (RPRS). Changes which are editorial or have no safety significance may be made by l the Reactor Manager, Reactor Operations Engineer or the Shift Supervisor but must be documented and subsequently reviewed by the RPRS. The documentation will be done by filling out a S0P ]
Deviation Form (see Appendix A) to petition a S0P change or to ]
explain the deviation. ]
I 1.3 Reactor Operating Parameters I The reactor will be operated under conditions and limitations as set forth in the technical specifications, Appendix A to License I R-103.
I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd W M \ S0P/I-1
l I
I.4 Administrative Policies I.4.1 Standing Orders New procedures prior to becoming part of these Stending Operating Procedures, procedures to be in effect for a short period, and ,
and special instructions relating to operation of the reactor, will be issued as Standing Orders. All effective Standing Orders, as well as a listing of current orders, will be main-tained in a log in the reactor control room. Standing Orders l
that are no longer applicable or that are incorporated into i the Standard Operating Procedures will be cancelled and removed from the log. All Standing Orders will be approved by signat 'e of the Reactor Manager or his authorized delegate.
I.4.2 General Operating Policies ,
A. Safety Safe operation of the reactor will take precedence over other considerations.
B. Supervisory Authority The importance of one coordinator for all reactor activities is recognized for safety and effective control of operation.
The Reactor Manager will have complete operating authority over all activities related to reactor operatior.
The Shift Supervisor is the Reactor Manager's delegated ]
representative on shift and is given the authority to direct ] ;
the activities (both licensed and unlicensed) related to ]
reactor operation during his duty shift. ]
Whenever the Shift Supervisor is absent, a Senior Opera- ]
tor shall assume the lead Senior Operator position. The lead ]
Senior Operator is delegated the Shift Supervisor's authority ]
and responsibility for shift activities during the Shift ]
Supervisor's absence.
Any S0P reference to Shift Supervisor apolies to the
]
]
l lead Senior Operator when the Shift Supervisor is absent from ]
his duty shift. ] l Rev. 5/02/89 App'd M SOP /I-2 ]
I
m-1, C. Operating Crews The minimum number of reactor operators for reactor opera-tion will be two licensed persons. One of these will be I licensed as a Senior Operator. There will be one licensed operator in the control room at all times whenever the reactor is not considered secured, as defined in Part 1.1 I of the Technical Specifications. Exception: It is not necessary to have the control room manned during refueling.
These activities may be directed from the reactor bridge.
D. Console Log A log will be maintained in the control room by the reactor ]
I operator providing a detailed diary of reactor operation.
Corrections to console log, Nuclear and Process Data
]
]
E.
and Routine Patrol Sheets ]
Any corrections to a log entry or data sheet will be done by ]
l a single
- through the incorrect entry, plus the initials ]
of the person .naking the change. If the correction is made at a later date, the person making the correction will
' initial and. date the change.
F. Changing Reactor Reactivity ]
Operations affecting changes in core reactivity, other than normal steady state power control, i.e. refueling, startup, I G.
etc., will be directly supervised by a Senior Operator.
Malfunction of Reactor Systems While at Power ]
Any malfunction or abnormal operation of a control or reactor system shall be immediately brought to the attention of the ]
Shift Supervisor. The decision as to whether to continue operation of the reactor depends upon the severity of the malfunction. It remains with the Shift Supervisor as to what immediate action needs be taken. However, the duty operator M authorized, in the absence of the Shift Supervisor from the control room, to place the reactor in a safe shutdown mode if he deems it necessary. It is important that the I reactor systems, while the reactor is critical, not be experimented with, or reactor control systems tested, unless Rev. 5/02/89 App'd @pn(V\ SOP /I-3 ]
I permission to do co is explicitly granted by either the Reactor Manager or his designated representative.
H. Maintenance Performed on Reactor Systems ]
All maintenance on reactor and license related systems and equipment will be reviewed by the Shift Supervisor or Acting Shift Supervisor to ensure operability of these systems prior to reactor operation.
I. Maintaining Active Operator Status ],
Actively performing the functions of an operator or senior ]
operator means that an individual has a position on the shift ] ,
crey!.that requires the individual to be licensed as defined ]
in 10 CFR 55, and that the individual carries out and is ]
responsible for the duties covered by that position. ]
If an Operator has not performed licensed duties a minimum of four hours on shift per calendar quarter, before ]
resumption of licensed activities, the Reactor Manager shall ]
certify that the qualifications and status of the Operator ]
are current and valid, and that the operator has completed a ]
minimum of six (6) hours of shift functions under the ]
direction of a Senior Operator before returning to active ]
status. ]
E J. Reactor Operating Parameters ] E The reactor shall be operated in strict accordance with the Reactor License R-103 and the operating limits in Tables III and IV.
I.4.3 Startup A. Startup Following a Scram The reactor will not be started up following a scram until the cause of the scram has been determined and safe cor-rective action taken. If, after thorough investigation, the cause of the unscheduled reduction in power cannot be determined and all systems are founo to be normal, the j reactor may be started up with the approval of the Reactor l Manager or his authorized delegate.

I
r B. Occupancy of the Reactor During reactor startup or transient operation, occupancy of the control room and containment building will be limited to the reactor staff, experimenters, and those observers as
' approved by the Reactor Manager or Shift Supervisor. ]
C. Operator Change During Transients 2
Control of the reactor will not be transferred from one operator to another daring power transient operations. ]
f '
Con:rol of the reactor may be transferred at any point ]
L up to and including 2" below estimated critical position ]
during normal reactor startups, if the Senior Operator ] ;
directing the startup deems it necessary. ]
D. Control Blade Operation j
- 1. The control blades shall not be moved in gang control after the reactor is critical except to reduce power (II.1.4.C.2), shutdown the reactor, as part of the ] !
automatic shimming operation, or during a hot startup. ]
1 not be h ra n i 1 n si ith e reg g blade.
E. Hot startup i A startup within two hours of any shutdown, in which restart capability is in doubt, shall be called a hot startup. A hot ,
startup shall only be made by the Shift Supervisor, Senior l Reactor Operator, or a licensed Reactor Operator under the direct and close supervision of a Senior Reactor Operator.
The approach to critical may be made entirely in gang control of the control rod drives.
F. Startup Checksheet
- 1. A Full Power Startup Checksheet will be completed before ]
nuclear operation of the .eactor. The completed check-sheets will be apprrved in writing by the Shift Super-visor before withdrawing the control rods for the ]
startup. A short form Startup Checksheet is provided ]
and may be used tcc a reactor system startup checkout ]
if the following conoMio,1s are satisfied:
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd NM SOP /I-5 ]
l I
L
- a. The systems and instrumentation not covered by the ]
short form Startup Checksheet have been in ]
continuous operation with no anomalies since the ]
completior. of the last Full Power Startup Checksheet ]
and the routine systems check has revealed no abnor-malities.
- b. A Full Power Startup Checksheet has been e mpleted ]
within eight hours prior to the time a short form .
checksheet is to be used, ,or,the reactor has been operating at some time within the previous eight hours, and a Shutdown Checksheet has not been completed during this period.
- 2. A Startup Checksheet is not required for a return to power within a period of two hours following a shutdown from full power, providing the status of any system covered by the Full Power or short form Startup Check- ]
sheets has not changed since the last power operation, or if the Shift Supervisor determines that no system has been adversely affected by the cause of the shut- ]
down.
G. Estimated Critical Position (ECP)
- 1. The Shift Supervisor shall assure that he has a reliable estimated critical position, established by calculation or experience, and record it on the Startup Checksheet prior to each startup. .l
- 2. The estimated critical position shall be either furnished by or approved by the Reactor Physicist on any startup following a shutdown in which fuel handling has taken place. The limits as specified in Table Il shall apply !
to ECP's furnished in this event.
I I
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd NOAM SOP /I-6 ]
I
- 3. The Shift Supervisor may call upon the Reactor Physicist f
at any time to establish a predicted critical position.
The responsibility of assuring that operations has a reliable ECP shall rest with the Reactor Physicist.
- 4. The MURR Estimated Critical Position Procedure (provided ]
by the Reactor Physicist) may be used at the discretion ]
of the Shift Supervisor for cores with previous power ]
5 history and no fuel handling since previous shutdown. ]
However, if the estimate of ECP based upon past history ]
is off by more than that shown in Table I, the control rods will be driven in and the ECP calculated.
- 5. If the reactor is not critical at ECP as calculated by the Reactor Physicist or by the procedure (plus the values shown in Table I or after fuel handling as in Table II),
the reactor will be shutdown, and if not present, the Reactor Physicist will be notified. The reactor is not ]
to be restarted without approval of the Reactor Manager or Reactor Operations Engineer unless the discrepancy between ECP and actual critical position has been unquestionably resolved.

LJ. Health Physics Monitoring of Reactor Experiments During a Reactor Startup
- When a. change is made to a.beamport or other reactor b experiment which could lead to significant alterations in area radiation levels as reactor power is increased,.a Health Physics Technician will be assigned to monitor that' ]
experiment' during the startup. Direct communications will '].
be maintained between the Control Room and the Health Physics Technician. The Control Room will inform the Health
- Physics Technician at the following power levels:
- 1. During a Normal Reactor Startup
- a. When the reactor reaches criticality.
- b. When reactor power reaches 50 KWs.
! c. When reactor power reaches 5 MWs (2.5 MWs if L operating in Mode II).
- 2. During a Reactor Hot Startup
- a. When the reactor reaches criticality.
- c. When reactor power reaches 10 MWs.

If direct communications are lost or if one of the above reports is not acknowledged, reactor power will be main-tained at a steady level until the problem is corrected.
The Health Physics Technician will make his final report to the Control Room af.er a complete survey is conducted at the desired power level.
I.4.4 Normal Operation A. Normal power level will be 9.90 to 10.00 MW as indicated by the total power meter.
B. The control room shall be occupied by at least one licensed ]
operator during steady state operation of the reactor and a ]
second licensed operator at a facility location where com- ]
munication with the control room can be maintained.
C. Prior to assuming control of the reactor, the oncoming oper-ator will read the control room log book and shall be briefed on current operation.
D. During shift operation, the Shift Supervisor for the new shift will review the log book and be briefed on current operations by the crew he is to relieve. Upon completion of the log book review, the Shift Supervisor will note the same
'n the log book.
E. A complete set of Nuclear data will be taken once an hour during steady state operation.
F. A complete set of Process data will be taken every two (2) hours during steady state operation.
G. During routine operation, a routine patrol of the facility will be made every four (4) hours according to an approved Routine Patrol Checksheet.
H. Normally, the calorimetric determination of the power level can be read directly from the digital readout and entered in the Nuclear Process Data. The cause of any difference between the primary and secondary calorimetric calculations which exceeds 5% (0.5 MW) during steady state full power operation should be determined.

~I. Steady state reactor powers of .1 MW and greater will be determined-by the method stated above. The power indicated by Channels .4, 5, and 6 shall be maintained greater than.
100% during steady state full power operation. Channels ~4, 5, and 6 are adjusted by proper positioning of the; drawer amplifier feedback potentiometers. After adjustment of a potentiometer, the change in indicated power shall be' logged in the console log and the new pot setting logged on the Startup Nuclear Data Sheet. The Shift Superyisor's approval must be obtained before adjustment of any Power Range Monitor. Adjustments shall ~be made after a determination ]
of the power level by heat balance with -one exception. ]
During or shortly after a normal reactor startup, and at the .]
Shift Supervisor's discretion, the pot adjustments may be ]
made when an accurate heat balance is not yet possible due ]
to changing temperatures. In all cases, the Shift Super- ]
visor must ensure that the pots are adjusted only in the. ]
conservative direction, that is, in a direction that over -]
estimates actual power. ]-
J. Minimum nuclear' instrumentation for normal operation shall be two (2) intermediate range channels with period trip, two (2) power range channels each with high flux trips and one (1) wide range channel with high flux trip.

I.4.7 Radiation Work Permit A Radiation Work Permit will be completed by the Job Supervisor and Health Physics prior to conducting any work which in the opinion of the Shift Supervisor or the Health Physics Group ]
involves significant potential for exposure of personnel to radiation or the spreading or release of airborne or surface contamination.
-A copy of this form is included in the Appendix of the S0P.
The form is used as follows:
Rev. c;f np f po App'd NMW SOP /I-12 ]
A. The top portion of the RWP will be prepared by the Job ]
L Supervisor and Health Physics. The time and date spaces ]
should contain the supervisor's estimate of the duration ]
of the job (0800-2400 September 2, 1988; 0000-2400 ]
September 10-12,1988,etc.). The Job Supervisor should ]
be as specific as possible in describing the job. This will aid Health Physics in determining the protective measures necessary.
B. Health Physics will assign a number to the RWP and conduct ]
the necessary surveys and determine the protective measures ]
necessary for the job. Health Physics will complete the ]
remainder of the RWP indicating the survey results and the ]
protective measures required. Health Physics will then ]
sign and date the RWP, and obtain approval signature from ]
the Job Supervisor and information signature from the Shift ]
Supervisor, if appropriate. ]
C. The Job Supervisor will provide Health Physics with the names ]
of personnel expected to work under the RWP prior to the ]
start of the job. Each person performing work under the RWP ]
shall be informed of the required radiation controls and ]
shall acknowledge being informed by signing on their ]
designated signature line. Health Physics will have avail- ]
able the approved RWP at the job site for ready reference by ]
the personnel doing the work. ]
D. When the job has been completed and the job site has been ]
cleaned up and decontaminated, the Job Supervisor will deliver ]
the RWP to Health Physics. Health Physics will verify that ]
the job site is clean and decontaminated, and will record ]
estimated dose for each person involved. Health Physics will ]
terminate the RWP and maintain it in an RWP file. Any person ]
who signed approval or any supervisor can terminate the RWP ]
by signing the termination block. Health Physics must be ]
notified if the RWP is terminated by someone other than a ]
member of the Health Physics Group. ]
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd dM SOP /I-13 ]
I.4.8 Radiation Safety The Shift Supervisor is directly responsible for the overall safety of personnel on his shift and indirectly responsible for all personnel whose safety may be affected by activities con-ducted under his supervision. Radiation safety is a very im-portant part of this responsibility. It should not be construed that surveys, monitoring, or other measurements to check for contamination or radiation are to be made by operations person- i nel, but rather that the Shift Supervisor is responsible to insure that through coordination with the Health Physics person-nel, adequate protection is provided for evolutions conducted during his shift.
I.4.9 Physical Protection of Special Nuclear Materials In accordance with 10 CFR 73, special requirements must be met in safeguarding Special Nuclear Material. The safeguards provided and the procedures applicable to maintaining the security of Special Nuclear Materials are contained in the facility Security Plan and Security Procedures.
1.4.10 Equipment Tag Out Procedure I.4.10.1 Purpose The purpose of tagging equipment is to prevent damage to equip-ment or personnel or to provide supplemental information con-cerning a special operating procedure.
I.4.10.2 Tagging Equipment A. Three tags are provided. See Appendix A for a sketch of ]
the danger tags. The tag color designates its purpose as follows:
Red - Danger to personnel Yellow - Danger to equipment White - Supplemental information concerning an operating procedure Rev. 5/02/89 App'd ljDid SOP /I-14 ]
L _-- -_
B. The Shift Supervisor's approval must be obtained before equipment is tagged.
C. All tags and the tag log must be filled out and each tag ]
attached to equipment by a_ licensed operator. The tag log must contain a description of the equipment tagged, reason for tagging, date, and initials of operator initiating the tag.

and ensure the valve or equipment from which the tag is ]
removed is placed in the proper position or condition. ]
B. When a tag is removed, the date of removal and the initials ]
of the operator clearing the tag shall be entered in the ]
tag log. ]
I.4.10.4 Missing Tags A. Immediately notify the Shift Supervisor in the event a tag is determined to be missing.
B. The Shift Supervisor will investigate the cause of the missing tag and will replace it with a new tag if necessary.

tive AT on the primary and pool. ]
11.1.3 Assu;ning Automatic Reactor Control A. Conditions to be met prior to " auto" ope' 9 tion.
Prior to assuming automatic control for reactor operation, the following conditions must be met:
- 1. The period as indicated by both IRM-2 and IRM-3 must i indicate not less than 35 seconds.
- 2. The WRM selector switch must be in the 5 KW red scale position or above.
B
- 3. The power trace pointer (black) on the WRM recorder must E be reading greater than the cuto control prohibits set point (red).
- 4. The reg blade position must be greater than 60% with-drawn, such that 60% annunciator alarm is energized. ,
B. Procedure To place the reactor into the automatic control mode: i Rev. 5/02/89 App'd hM SOP /II-4 I'
J
- 1. Set the low level trip (red pointer) in the wide range recorder so that the auto-control prohibit trip is at 75% of the desired operating power.
- 2. Using the power schedule switch (1S9), bring the setpoint indicator to approximately 3% below a desired power level of > 1000 watts as would be indicated on the black scale of the wide range monitor. l
- 3. Bring the reactor to the desired power level on a period j
> 35 seconds, utilizing the reg blade in such a manner as )
to insure that it is greater than 60% withdrawn when the desired power level is reached.
Note: Caution and good judgement should be exercised on the part of the Reactor Operator when preparing to assume the l automatic control mode in that prior operating experience has revealed discrepancies in readings between the WRM-4 power indication and the demand power for auto control as set by the power schedule switch. The Operator is to be cautioned that the indicated demand power displayed by the power set I meter may lead the WRM-4 power level reading by as much as 5%. This difference is particularly predominant in the lower I percentile range on the meter.
- 4. Depress the blue " auto" control switch S-2 located on the operator console. The " reg rod out of auto" alarm will reset on the annunciator. The reg blade will attempt to reduce the actual reactor power to the level indicated on the power level set meter, by automatically driving down-ward into the core. This initial action on the part of the reg blade is to be observed and verified by the Reactor Operator. Eventually, the reg blade will stabi lite at its critical position, and bring the reading on the wide range recorder into agreement with that as indi-cated by the power level set meter. At this point, the reactor is in automatic control mode.
N_ote: Since the auto control mode was attained at a reactor power = 3% less than the desired level, the difference can now be made up with a slow manipulation of the power schedule switch.
Rev. 10/81 App'd M SOP /II-5
- 5. While closely observing both the reg blade position and the wide range monitor Channel 4 response, raise the power level set until the reactor power stabilizes at a desired level as indicated by the wide range monitor instruments-tion.
To Discontinue Automatic Operation Depress the blue manual switch (S-1). Control will then revert I
to the manual mode and wili be indicated by both the " manual" switch S-1 being lighted and the annunciator alarm " reg rod out of auto" being actuated. .
Manual Override By actuating the regulating rod control switch (ISS), the Opera-tor may override the automatic control system. Operation will E thereafter be in the manual mode unless the operator deliberately E returns the system to the automatic control mode as outlined above. Note: Either a reactor scram or a rod run-in condition will automatically return control to the manual mode.
11.1.4 Procedure for Changing Power Levels For power level maneuvers at powers in excess of 1 MW:
A. Place IRM recorder in fast speed.
B. Take a complete set of nuclear data. ]
C. Place the reactor in the manual control mode by depressing ]
the blue manual switch (S-1). ]
- 1. To increase the reactor power, each control blade or the reg blade may be withdrawn individually until the reactor power level is increasing on no less than a 100 second period.
- 2. To decrease the reactor po;.er, all four control blades may be inserted in gang to reduce power as rapidly as required. However, to recover reactor criticality at I
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd Nbn 50P/II-6 I
the desired power level, each control blade must be withdrawn individually if its position is within 2.00" of its previous critical position. Maintain all blade positions such that the difference in position between any two blades is not greater than 1.00".
D. Recover criticality at the new power level.
E. Replace the reactor control in the automatic node, if desired.
F. Take a complete set of nuclear data.
G. Switch the IRM recorder from fast to slow speed.
H. Record the power change in the log book and on the Startup Nuclear Data Sheet as required.
For power level maneuvers at power less than 1 MW: _
l A. For increasing or decreasing. power, the same procedure as outlined in parts A-H above apply, with the exception that power level increases up to 1 MW may be made on periods no less,inan 30 seconds.
11.1.5 Procedure for Control Blade Shimming s
A. The tutomatic Shimming 'Jnit Can be Considered operational l and will 31.5 the regulating blade out should it reach 5.20", f but it should not be used for routine shimming. f B. For manual shimi.Hnc in auto control, each control blade will be withdrawn or interted individually while the regulating blade automatically adjusts to maintain a constant power ]
I level.
C. The control blade positions will be adjusted such that they all read the same position across the board after the shim-
! ming operation has been completed. 1 D. During the shimming operation, the Reactor Operator will )
closely observe the nuclear instrumentation and the movement of the regulating control blade (when in automatic control),
to verify that the system response to the shimming opercticn !
is normal.

One Senior Reactor Operator and one Reactor Operator must be present to handle fuel. Only a Senior Reactor Operatort a ;
Reactor Operator, a Reactor Operator trainee, or Auxiliary Operator under the direct supervision of a Senior Reactor Operator may handle fuel. The Auxiliary Operator will assist in fuel handling only to the extent of passing the fuel ele-ment across the weir divider, and may not_ handle fuel in or out of the core, or in or out of a storage location. The Senior Operator is in charge of the fuel handling evolution and is responsible for the proper conduct of the evolution.

- 1. The fuel element fuel plates on the convex and concave ends are very fragile. When moving an element, it is important to approach an obstacle-with the side plate facing the obstacle to prevent accidental danage to the fuel plate.
$1. Two fuel handling tools are available. Normal refueling ]
will be done with the air operated tool and the pool at ]~
normal operating level . If the air operated tool becomes ]
inoperative, notify the Reactor Manager or Operations Engi- ]
neer who may authorire the use of the manually operated ]
fel handling tool as per SMP-17. ]
K. La,,ching and unlatching the air operated fuel handling tool. ]
When latching a fuel element, you will have to get a feel (with practice) for when the tool is in its proper place on
] l the element. Slowly release the air operator handle. The tool will move downward slightly as the tool pulls down ]
into the element. The element should not be considered ]
latched unless the fuel tool makes a discernable drop upon ]
air cylinder actuation. Additionally, verif_y the element is ]
latched by observing that the red indicator on the horizontal cylinder is fully retracted. When unlatching the element, push down on the tool while slowly pushing down the air operator handle to the locked released position. When in the reactor, never lift the tool off the element. Always allow the tool to float up off the element. It will not float up if the element is attached but can easily be worked off the element by pushing down and turning until it floats off. 1 4
Failing to release the element in this manner may result in accidentally lifting and leaving the element a few inches off J
of its seated position without realizing it. I l

11.3.2 Caution Should;be Taken During Removal as Follows:
A. Due to the potentially high radiation level produced' by. the activated blade, place the bridge ARMS to the upscale posi-
~
. tion to prevent a building isolation alarm while the offset ] .-
I '
is being handled near-the surface of the water. ].
B. . Extreme caution should be used during Step II.3.3.L so that undue _ stress is_ not placed on offset mechanism while breaking it loose from guide pins. Also,' extreme caution should be .
used while maneuvering the offset mechanism away from the pressure vessel.
~
II.3.3 . Th'e Detaile'd Procedure for' Removal is'as Follows:. l l
A. Electrically.' disconnect the rod drive mechanism.
B'. Remove the four bolts at the base of the rod drive mechanism and with either the rod magnet fully inserted or withdrawn, remove the rod drive mechanism.
C.- Remove the four bolts at the base to the rod drive shaft
, housing assembly.
D. Mark position of photocell housing for drop timers / rod ] .j bottom indication and remove. ]
E. Remove the "U" clamp attaching the upper housing to the ;
bridge floor plate.
F. The upper housing unit may now be lifted free. Mark the :
upper housing when more than one mechanism is to be removed..
G. Loosen the bolts on the lower housing bracket and remove i same.
l Rev. 5/02/89 App'd {A)QfY\ S0p/II-13 ]
i H. Unscrew. lift rod assembly and lift up as far as it will go. g Remove lift rod and lower housing as one unit, j I. Using bolt removal tool, loosen offset mechanism hold down bolt on rear of assembly. l J. Insert offset mechanism pulling tool into hole in counter ,
balance arm and raise blade to full out. Insert "T" section of lift tool into lifting lug at top rear of offset.
K. Attach the lifting tool to the crane.
L. Jog the crane while lifting by hand until the offset mecha-nism lifts free of the side guide pins. Observe closell the strain necessary to break the offset free. If the offset mechanism does not break loose from its reflector platform after applying a reasonable amount of tension, relieve the tension on the lifting tool and determine the reason for the difficulty before continuing the attempt to lift the mecha-nism.
M. After the offset mechanism has cleared the guide pins, care-fully raise it until the top of the blade mount is about 1/8" below the pressure vessel intermediate flange.
NOTE: After the mechanism clears the guide pins, the blade is still partially within the gap so caution must be observed to hold the mechanism steady while raising it to the flange above or the blade may be damaged.
N. With the blade now clear from its gap, carefully move the mechanism away from the pressure vessel " spool" flange and raise the mechanium to the surface.
CAUTION: The lower portion of the mechanism and the lower tip of the blade will be very radioactive, so insure close Health Physics coverage is pro-vided before raising the blade to the pool water l surface.

11.3.4 Installation of the Control' Blade Offset Mechanism The procedure for installing the blade and offset mechanism is essentially the reverse of the above, with a particular emphasis on the following points:
A. Before inserting the mechanism, check the clearance of the blade gap with the gapping tool.
B. . After disengaging the lifting tool from the locking "T", the Shift Supervisor or Senior Operator will exercise the blade
~ over its full- length of travel until he is convinced that the blade moves freely and is able to travel through the gap totally without resistance.
C. During the subsequent pull for the rod drop test, determine ]
the position at which the photocell for the drop timer ]
actuates with respect to the blade full-in position. It ]
must not be greater than 5.2".
II.4 Waste Tank Analysis ] i A waste tank analysis is performed by the laboratory group for i
evidence of activity prior to release to the sanitary sewer.
See Section VII.8.6. A pH of each sample is measured to ]
determine its acidity. If the waste water is very acidic (pH I less than 4) and the liquid waste is to be held, a caustic solution should be added and circulated to prevent excess corrosion of the waste tanks.

m-t' IV.3 Operation of the Antisiphon System f
IV.3.1 General Operating Philosophy The antisiphon. system is designed to provide sufficient air (under pressure) to break a siphon of the primary coolant system in the event of a pipe rupture. To perform its function, this system must be maintained at a pressure greater than 27 psig, and the water level above the antisiphon valves must be less than six inches. The procedures below will be followed to insure that the antisiphen system is operated within the above limitations.
L IV.3.2 Decreasing Pressure in the Antisiphon System The system contains a pressure switch which will initiate an annunciator alarm when the system pressure falls below 30 psig.
Upon receipt of the low pressure alarm an attempt shall be made to establish norma,1 system pressure by admitting air through the air valve and regulator on the bridge. If system pressure cannot be maintained above 27 psig, the reactor shall be shutdown until the problem is corrected.
IV.3.3 Increasing Pressure in the Antisiphon System
)
After the primary coolant system has been placed in service, open g
5 the system drain valve and check that the system is drained of all water. The system's pressure will then be returned to the middle of the operating band (~36 psig) and this pressure will !
be recorded on the routine patrol sheet.
I On each subsequent routine patrol, read the system pressure 1
and compare it to the base pressure recorded after the startup.
If the pressure has increased by more than 4 psi, action must be ]
taken to insure that the pressure increase is not due to in- )
I leakage of primary coolant water. If the pressure has increased by more than 4 psi, carry out the following procedures: )
I A. Open the drain valve and observe the water flowing from the drain line. 1 I I Rev. 10/81 , App'd M SOP /IV-5
- I B. Drain until you no longer receive a solid stream of water, then close the drain valve.
C. If the amount of water drained is significant, record this fact on the routine patrol sheet and in the console log.
D. Return the system pressure to normal (~36 psig) by venting or adding air.
E. Record the new base pressure on the routine patrol sheet.
A new base pressure will be established during the first routine patrol of every day that the reactor is operating. To establish the new base pressure, carry out steps A through E above.
IV.3.4 Antisiphon High Level If an antisiphon high level rod run-in is received, carry out steps A through E of IV.3.3. When the high level alarm has cleared,-the rod run-in may be reset. Do not withdraw rods until a thorough check of the system has been made to determine the source of the water leak..
IV.4 Depressurization of Pressurizer IV.4.1 Procedure A. Shutdown primary system in accordance with Section IV.2. ]
B. Place valve position switch for V545 to open.
C. Allow pressure in pressurizer to reduce and then place valve position switch for V545 to close.

V.3 Partif Pool Filling Procedures (Pool at Refuel Level or Above)
V.3.1 To increase the water level in the pool with demineralized water from T301 or T300, one of the two following procedures can be used; however, all water in T301 should be used first.
Filling may be accomplished with the skimmer system (Section I A.
VII.5.3) with or without the skimmer pump operating and the ]
reactor either operating or shutdown. Required operational pool makeup will be accomplished in this manner:
- 1. Check capacities of tanks T300 and T301 and check proper valve lineup.
- 2. Observe the pool level and check that the skimmer pump is secured.
Rev.5L0,2/89 App'd JfDm/\ 50P/V-3 I i
_- 1
- 3. Remotely open valve 565B from the primary / pool drain collection system control panel. Insure valve does indicate open.
- 4. The skimmer pump may be started at this point. However, it will fill by gravity if desired.
- 5. When proper pool level is obtained, secure the skimmer pump and remotely close valve 565B. Insure it does indicate closed.
B. The second approved method of filling the pool is via the 4" line from tank T300/301 to the pool pump suction and discharge line,
- 1. Check capacities of tanks T300 and T301 and check proper valve lineup.
- 2. With the pool system in the normal shutdown mode, fill-ing the pool through a pool pump can be avoided by oponing valve V522C and permitting T301 or T300 to drain by gravity feed alone.
- 3. Close valve V522C when the filling operation is com-pleted.
V.4 . Pool Lowering Procedure V.4.1 Lowering P.ool Water Level to Refuel Bridge Two methods of lowering pool level may oe used:
A. By use of the skimmer systein (SOP /VII.5.2). ]
B. By use of the pool pumps P508A or P508B as outlined below.
V.4.2 Before a lowering of the pool level using P508A/B is commenced, Ii place pool system in service as follows:
I A. Isolate one pool heat exchanger utilizing the local inlet gate valve.
B. Place master switch in 1S1 to test.
C. Place V509 to manual /open.
D. Start P508A or 508B.
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd h 5 SOP /V-4 i
- I .
E. Pool lowering procedure is as follows:
NOTE: A visual observation of the in-pool facilities ]
must be maintained while a pool pump is on and during the draining operation. . Specific control over hazards and a radiation survey must be maintained during the course of the draining operation. The pool level will not be lowered below the intermediate refuel level without the specific approval of the Reactor' Manager.
I-
- 1. Health Physics personnel shall be present while lowering pool level to insure that a high activity sample or component is not uncovered causing excessive personnel exposure.
- 2. Check pool area to insure all samples, spacers, and other radioactive materials are low enough to guarantee adequate shielding.
Turn skimmer pump P532 off.
I 3.
- 4. Insure that T301 is valved in service.
- 5. Open manual valve VS22C in room 114 to full open. Note the reduction of flow as the valve is opened.
- 6. With V522C full open, slowly throttle down on the un-isolated heat exchanger inlet gate valve until the flow indicated by the flow recorder in the control room shows approximately 200 gpm. q
- 7. When the pool level is at the desired level or a T301 4 high level alarm is received, secure P508 and immedi-ately close V522C.
- 8. Reopen the inlet valves of both heat exchangers.
- 9. Insure that Health Physics clears the bridge area for ,
I L access.
i l V.5 Pool Cleanup System l l V.5.1 To put the pool cleanup system into normal operation, the following procedure is used: J A. Check valve V515T, V515N and V515P open.

H. Start two sacondary pumps for 10 MW operation.
CAUTION: Two pumps cannot be started at the same time because the basin level will be drawn down faster than the makeup water can be supplied, which will result in the actuation of a low sump level trip.
j I After one pump is started, it is necessary to wait from 5 to 10 minutes before starting the second ]
pump.
Verify that the correct flow occurs and that the pumps operate normally. Verify that the automat. c isump makeup water isolation valve has opened. The valve is designed to operate automatically with its control function being: P1, P2 or P3 operating -- the valve is open. When all the P-pumps are secured, with the exception of P4, the valve is closed. The secondary system is now fully operational.
NOTE: The pumps should be operated alternately with neither carrying a major share of total on-line time.
l
- 1. Place the Calgon water treatment units in automatic control locally.
J. Pumps P-1, P-2, P-3 and P-4 may be operated locally during ]
maintenance by means of controls provided at each of the ]
pump stations.
K. Periodically check and adjust valves S-17, S-18, S-19, S-20, S-21 and S-22 located atop the cooling tower to assure equal flow through each.
VI.2 Procedure for Operation of Bypass Control Valves S-1 and S-2 The controllers for operating the control valves S-1 and S-2 are located on the instrument cubicle in the control room as an integral part of the primary and pool water temperature recorders respectively. Provisions are made for both manual and auto-matic control operation modes:
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd (A M SOP /VI-3
- .g
l
- l. <;
A. Manual Operation
- 1. Energize process system and controller.
- 2. Adjust the valve position with the nanual control button on front panel until pool and reactor coolant tempera- h.
tures stabilize at the desired values.
B. Manual to Automatic Transfer Control can be transferred from manual to automatic opera-tion at any time.
- 1. Turn control transfer switch on front panel to auto position. g C. Automatic to Manual Transfer s NOTE: Caution must be used in going from the automatic mode to the manual mode. If the indicated valve ]
deviation is not brought into balance with the valve adjustment button on the controller prior to turning to the manual mode, and if there is a large difference between the manual position demand and the position of the valve in the stabilizer auto mode, a significant positive or negative reactivity change could occur. This would be due to the valve leaving its position in E
the auto mode and traveling as rapidly as possible B >
to the position demanded by the manual setpoint when the manual mode is selected.
The bal mode permits the manual control posi-tion demand to be equated to the stable position of the valve while being operated in the auto l
mode before the manual mode is selected.
- 1. Turn control transfer switch on front panel to bal position.
- 2. Adjust manual control on front panel until deviation meter on front panel indicates no deviation. With no deviation present, red meter pointer is aligned with red index line of setpoint tape indicator.
- 3. Turn control transfer switch on front of panel to man position. The system temperature is now controlled by manual control.

VI.3 Cooling Tower Operations VI.3.1 Operation of The Cooling Tower Fans The cooling tower fans required for operation is a function of both the reactor power level and/or climatic conditions.
Control over the use of these fans rests with the Shift Supervisor who will maintain process coolant temperatures within standard operational limits as specified in the MURR Technical Specifications and Section I of the Standard
, I Operating Procedures.
The oil level in each fan shall be checked as part of ]
each Fullpower Startup Checksheet. After an idle period ]
during the winter months, the blades shall be checked to make certain ice accumuinion on the surface of the blades will not cause an imbalance while the fans are in operation. Such an imbalance could result in damage to the fan units. A vibration switch installed near the gear reducer will stop the fan if excess vibration occurs, but this switch shall not be relied I upon to prevent damage from ice accumulation.
VI.3.2 Deicing The Cooling Tower CAUTION: PLASTIC FILL MUST NjT,BE ALLOWED TO ICE UP.
I During very cold months, the external wooden louvers may become mostly covered with ice. The following procedure should be used:
I A. Notify the Shift Supervisor of the need to deice.
B. Maintain communication either with radios or the intercom box at the cooling tower.
C. Have the control room operator secure the cooling tower fan for the tower Say in which deicing is desired. All three cooling tower bays may be deiced at the same time but it must be remembered that some cooling capacity is lost when deicing.
I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd 4}DM S0P/VI-5
l I
D. Allow enough time for the fan motor to coast to a stop and j then place the fan motor main breaker forward / reverse switch )'
to reverse.
E. Notify the control room to start the fan. It will now be ;
running in reverse to force heat out through the ice covered slats. ,
-F. Periodically check to see if ice is clear. When clear, use ]
the above procedure to place the fan in forward rotation. ]
l VI.3.3 Winter Operations (Temperatures Expected Below Freezing)
Due to the potential for ice to significantly damage the plastic fill, every precaution must be exercised to prevent ice buildup on the wooden louvers and in the plastic fill.
When the cooling tower is to be left unattended for more than one day (or on a long maintenance day), perform the following steps to prevent ice buildup in the plastic fill:
- 1. Open or verify open the basin steam supply valve.
- 2. Verify the steam solenoid valve operable.
- 3. Secure CT makeup automatic valve. ]
- 4. Prop open CT basin float valve to drain water between auto-matic valve and float valve.
- 6. Secure air conditioning unit and tag. ]
- 7. Secure P-4 and tag.
VI.4 Shutdown of the Secondary System Upon completion of shutdown of the reactor, reactor primary and pool loop cooling systems, the secondary cooling loop can be shut-shutdown as follows:
A. Shutdown secondary pump or pumps. If more than one secondary pump is operating, they should be secured simultaneously to minimize check valve slam. This is done from the control room E e
instrument panel .
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd (d M SOP /VI-6 l
p B. Verify that system flow recorder indicates no flow and.that I the chiller pump, P-4, has automatically started to provide coolant flow to the chiller unit. During winter months when
]
]
the air conditioning units will not be in service, P-4 will ]
be placed out of commission and verification of its operation during these months will not be necessary.
C. Turn off cooling tower fans.
VI.5 Draining and Filling the Secondary System Heat Exchanger and Piping This section has been moved to SMP-21.
VI.6 Secondary Water Treatment Procedures
.I VI.6.1 Secondary Water System Responsibility The responsibility of the secondary water treatment is within the operations group of the reactor, with two individuals given ]
prime responsibility to learn and be closely associated with the ]
total operation. The secondary water treatment system is de-signed to minimize corrosion, deposition, microbiological growth, I and other major chemical problems which are present in the sec-ondary cooling water system.
VI.6.2 Secondary Water Conductivity Control To control conductivity (total dissolved solids), water is sampled and monitored by the conductivity unit located in the tunnel of room 114. If the conductivity is greater than the system setpoint, an automatic blowdown is initiated. The fresh water makeup, which replaces the water lost through the blow-down, lowers the conductivity. ]
I I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd M SOP /VI-7
E VI.6.3 Secondary Water pH Control To control pH, water is sampled and monitored by the pH unit located in the tunnel entrance of room 114. If pH increases above the system setpoint, the acid injection ..ves automatica1- '
ly open and acid is gravity fed into the tower sump. The acid used is concentrated sulfuric acid supplied from the 250-gallon day tank in the cooling tower. ]
VI.6.4 Sample Paths for pH and Conductivity A. During normal operation of the secondary sy. stem, the , auto-matic pH and conductivity control units receive their sample water through valves S104 and S151.
B. During operation of the secondary system with the air condi-tioning units secured and isolated, close S104 and open S103.
This provides a representative sample for these units to control pH and conductivity. To shift the automatic blow-down system during operation with the air conditioning units isolated, close S102 and $101.
C. The pH and conductivity units shut down when secondary ] g pumps (P-1, P-2, and P-3) are secured. ] E VI.6.5 Secondary Water Corrosion Prevention A. The prevention of corrosion in the secondary system is accomplished by automatic addition of a corrosion inhibiter.
B. These chemicals are fed automatically by a metering pump system based on makeup flow.

SECTION VII r AUXILIARY SYSTEMS j
VII.1 Reactor power Calculator l'
The. automatic power calculator uses an input signal from the l primary and pool AT summers and calculates a power heat balance using analog type computer circuitry. The power level is read out continuously on a digital meter which gives the reactor power i
in megawatts. The flow signals used to calculate the power are input manually through a. potentiometer built into the. system for both pool and primary flows.
VII.1.1 Setting the Potentiometers The flow potentiometers are set at the fraction of total recorder flow that is being used. The primary flow recorder has a full scale reading of'2000 gpm for each loop, thus the total recorder flow available is 4000. '
To determine the pot setting, add the indicated flow in loops A and B and subtract the cleanup flow from this total. This number is the total core flow. Divide the total core flow by 4000. The resulting fraction should be set into the pot.
The pool flow recorder has a full scale reading of 800 gpm for each loop and the pool cleanup flow is extracted before the pool water flows through the heat exchangers. . To determine the pot setting for pool flow, add the indicated flow of loops A and B and divide by 1600. The resulting fraction should be set into the pot.
Rev. 10/81 App'd (b M SOP /VII-1
1 VII.1.2- Checking Operability of Calculator The accuracy of .the power calculator shall be checked daily after the first set of process data is taken provided steady state tem-perature conditions have been reached. _ This check is made by hand {
calculating the reactor power using the process instrumentation.
The results of this calculation shall be recorded in the comments section of the Process Data log.
VII.2 Ventilation Exhaust' System (EF-13/EF-14)
The ventilation exhaust. system is required to be operable whenever containment integrity is required (Tech. Spec. 4.2.b). Exha'st u fans EF-13 and EF-14 provide the driving force for the exhaust system. The normal exhaust fan lineup consists of EF-14 (the upper fan) running with EF-13 in Standby.

VII.4 Reactor Demineralized System VII.4.1 Normal Operation Normally there are four mixed resin beds in the system at one ]
time with two beds on line, one in standby or depleted and one in ]
the storage tank for pre-shipment decay. The normal flow path is ]
via a 50 gpm pump, system inlet filters, down through the DI bed, ]
and through system outlet filters. The outlet valve of the sys- ]
tem inlet filter is used as a throttling device with the bypass ]
valve always remaining closed. Although regeneration of a bed ]

VII.5 Skimmer System VII,5.1 Normal Startup of the Skimmer System The skimmer system is operated to remove floating debris from the pool at the normal operating level. If necessary, it is also possible to operate this system with the pool at refuel level by securing the skimmer box with valve 548A and recircu- l lating the water with suction taken through valve 548B from approximately one foot below the refuel level.
The skimmer system is put into routine operation according to the following procedure:
A. Verify that no maintenance has been performed on the skimmer .
system since the last shutdown of the system. If mainte-nance has been performed on the system, verify that a system valve lineup checklist has been performed; if not, do so .
before proceeding.
B. Energize pump P532 by turning 0FF-0N switch located on the
~
instrumentation panel in the control room to the ON position.
Vent the pump until it shows a steady discharge pressure.
VII.5.2 Pool Pump Down with the Skimmer System A. Prior to pumping the pool down, insure that there is suf-ficient reserve volume in tank T301 to receive the water.
B. If the pool level is to be lowered below the skimmer suction box, change the suction lineup to the lower suction by closing valve 548A and opening V548B.
C. The skimmer pump discharge normally returns to the pool via valve 515H. Pumping the pool down is accomplished by closing valve 515H and opening valve 524 to redirect the discharge to T301. A single control switch on the drain collection ,
system control board operates valve 515H and valve 524. This switch is normally left in the open position having 515H open and 524 closed. To pump the pool down, flip the switch to Rev. 5/02/89 App'd \dDM SOP /VII-15 ] ~~~
Reset f
I the closed position, applying closing air to valve 515H and opening air to valve 524; then turn on the skimmer cump. When the pool level has been lowered to the desired level, secure the skimmer pump and return the switch to the open position and check to see that valve 515H returns to open, and valve 524 indicates shut.
VII.5.3 Raising Pool Level Curing Operation A. Prior to raising pool level, insure that the isolation valve for T301 is open and there is sufficient water in T301 to raise the pool to the desired level.
B. If T301 has insufficient water, crack open T300 isolation valve and allow T300 water to flow by gravity to T301.
CAUTION: Do not allow T300 water level to drop below 2000 gallons while the reactor is in operation.
C. Pool level is raised by opening va',ve 565B, which valves T301 or T300 (as selected) to the suction of the skimmer pump. The height of T300 or T301 provides sufficient head to overcome the pool head at the pump suction and the pool will gravity fill from the tank. The control switch ]
for valve 565B is on the drain collection system control board in the control room, and is normally left in the closed position. To add water to the pool at a faster rate, start the skimmer pump as per VII.5.1 after valve 565B has been opened. When pool level has increased to the desired level, secure the skimmer pump and shut 565B.
Note that the valve indicates shut.

VII.5.4 Replacement of Skimmer Filter 531 The 1 micron skimmer fil 531 will be replaced when the pump discharge pressure exceec. 70 psig. At this point the oP across the filter as indicated by the oP gauge 926 should read greater than 26 psi. The used filter cartridge will be treated as radioactively contaminated material and will be handled and disposed of accordingly.
VII.5.5 Normal Shutdown of the Skimmer System Secure skimmer pump P332 by turning off-on switch on the instru-ment panel to the off position. Normally, there should be no need to change any of the valve settings after shutdown. With P532 off and the local switch locked out, the system can be considered secured.
VII.6 Primary / Pool Drain Collection System VII.6.1 Purpose The primary / pool drain collection system is used to collect t, potentially radioactive water which is near reactor grade (2.0 trihos/cm or less). This water is recycled to the pool system and is never distributed to the building DI water supply. The collection of such effluents substantially reduces activities being discharged via the liqu1d waste collection system.
VII.6.2 System Operation The system may be operated either in automatic or manual.
Normal operation shall be in the automatic mode. The sequence of events in automatic are as followi-Rev. 5/02/89 App'd ldinA SOP /VII-17 ]
Reset
A. The high level sensor detects high level at 2-1/2 feet, or ,
135 gallons, .and the following events occur:
- 1. The pump automatically comes on (the " pump on" light indicates the pump is running).
- 2. The pump discharge valve 565A opens (ensure the "open". ]
light indicates the valve open).
- 3. The high level light indicates high level in the tank.
- 4. The high level alarm sounds. The alarm will clear as q soon as the level recedes below the sensor. The high '
level alarm cutout may be employed if the high level is to exist for some time.
B. After the system pumps below the low level sensor, the .j following events occur:
- 1. The pump stops (ensure " pump off" light comes on). ]
- 2. The pump discharge valve 565A closes (ensure valve ]
indicates closed). i If it is desired to pump the collection tank before the level has risen to the high level sensor, the high level alarm can be simulated by depressing the auto / manual switch. This switch causes the control circuit to.see a dummy high level -
signal which will cause the pump to start and the discharge i valve to open. The tank will be pumped to the low level sensor which will cause it to stop as in auto control.
If for any reason it is desired to secure pumping of the {
collection tank before the low level sensor is reached, depress the manual override switch. This switch simulates a low level to the control circuit. The pump will stop and the discharge valve will close.
NOTE: When the collection system operates, an increase in pool DI water flow should be noted.

VII.8 Liquid Waste Disposal System i
VII.8d Description A. All drains for potentially contaminated liquids are deliv- j e.ed to the !! quid waste retention system (hereafter refer- j red to as the Waste Tanks - WT) in the below grade area of )
the laboratory portion of the building. The liquid is pumped to the tfi from two waste collection sumps provided for collection of potentially radioactive liquids.
I:
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd bjiWy\ _
SOP /Vil-20 ] i n
1
. i.
I B. The WT system consists of two collection sumps, two sumps, two sump pumps in each sump, one "Y" strainer, three waste ]
tanks, two waste tank pumps, a filter bank and associated ]
piping, valves and fittings.
I C. Each WT has valved drains which connect via a comr'on suction header to the waste tank pumps. This header also has con-nections for chemical addition, DCW, and 1.P air.
D .. The waste pumps should always discharge through the Cuno filters to any waste tank or to the sanitary sewer system. ]
The discharge header has a pressure gauge on both sides of the filter, a sample line, a bullseye, and a low pressure pump cutout switch (set at 5 psig). The low discharge ]
pressure cutout switch automatically shuts off the running ]
pump upon low discharge pressure. ]
E. Each tank has a sight glass for level readings. An air
.g 5 spare line is installed along the entire length of WT1 and
- 2. Each tank has an unvalved vent to atmosphere. WTl or WT3 can receive waste directly from the hot waste sumps, depending on the valve line up. Both tanks have sludge settlement standpipes, but the normal sump discharge is to WT3. WT2 receives eff'iuent directly from the DI200 regen-eration system.
VII.8.2 Dry Active Waste We must make every effort to remove as much waste as possible in the form of dry active waste. We have three methods: ]
(1) Sludge Settlement (2) Cuno Filters (3) Chemical Precipitant Treatment I
I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd {M SOP /VII-21 ]
1 I
A. Sludge Settlement WT1 and WT3 are fitted wich gravity drains to WT2 through E
18" standpipes. This will allow WT1 or WT3 to act as E settling tanks. When the sludge buildup warrants, the sludge is dumped via a 3" drain line at the north end of WT3 or the south end of WT1 into barrels or drying troughs. ]
This sludge is dried and removed as dry active waste.
B. Cuno Filters l
The waste water will normally be pumped through a waste ]
system filter bank. When the LP is high across them, they ]
are replaced with new filters, and the old ones are disposed of as dry active waste. See Section VII.8.11.
C. Chemical Precipitant Treatment Radioactive particulate will attach themselves to carriers which can then be readily filtered out of the WT water.
Without these carriers, even the most efficient filters could not remove this radioactive particulate. After filter-ing, the filters are shipped as dry radioactive waste. See Section VII.8.12.
VII.8.3 Dumping Criteria A. The liquid waste is collected and held until an analysis is made to determine that the specific activity of all radioactive isotopes in the waste is less than the limit specified in the Code of Federal Regulations, Titie 10, Part 20 (10 CFR 20) for dumping liquid waste to the sanitary g sewer. In addition to the dumping limit on each isotope, E l'0 CFR 20 also limits the total activity which the Univer-sity can dump to the sanitary sewer to 1 curie per year for carbon-14, 5 curies per year for H-3 (tritium) and 1 curie per year for other radioactive material, excluding C-14 and Rev. 5/02/89 App'd NW SOP /VII-22 ]
llj
!! H-3. MURR is allocated 80% of the University's limit, i.e.
800 millicurie per year for carbon-14, 4 curies per year for H-3 (tritium) and 800 millicuries per year of other radio-active material . This latter limit and a general desire to minimiza the activity dumped to our environment, dictates that the waste be retained as long as possible to permit the activity to decay off prior to discharge. If the 10 CFR 20 limits are not exceeded and the total activity of ;
I radionuclides does not exceed 10 mci of tritium or 2 mci of other nuclides, the Shift Supervisor may authorize thL water to be pumped to the sanitary sewer. Any tank containing water with an activity greater than 10 mci of tritium or ]
2 mci of other nuclides will be discharged only with the ]
I approval of the Reactor Manager.
B. When the liquid waste exceeds the limits of 10 CFR 20 for dumping, one of two methods will usually be utilized to dispose of the waste. The most desirable option is to retain the water until the activity has decayed off to per-mit dumping. The second option is to chemically treat the ,
waste with a carrier solution that causes the radionuclides to precipitate which facilitates them being filtered out (refer to Section VII.8.12). Precipitates will then be re-moved either by pumping from one tank to another or recir- ]
culating the tank through the WT filters. As the filtering ] ]
I process proceeds, it may be necessary to change the filters l to a smaller mesh size and continue the filtration until the desired activity reduction is achieved.
C. It shall be standard procedure to hold all liquid waste as long as practical to minimize the total actis;ity released.
A sample of the tank is taken and delivered to Reactor ]
Chemistry Group. Results of the analysis are recorded on ]
the Waste Tank Sample Form and the form is sent to the I
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd ldhfA SOP /VII-23 ]
. Shift Supervisor. The Shift Supervisor reviews the sample results and makes the decision of what to do with the tank.
If the Shift Supervisor decides to dump the tank, he sends l the form to Health Physics for their concurrence. If Health Physics concurs that the tank can be dumped, the tank is pumped to the sanitary sewer as per Section VII.8.7. After ]
the operator has completed pumping the tank, he enters the final volume pumped on the sample form and sends the form to Health Physics Department. q D. If the analysis of WT2 exceeds the 10 CFR limits or if the W Shift Supervisor wishes to hold the tank for further decay, WT2 can be pumped to WT1 via the filters, utilizing a vig-orous air sparge. Then WT1 shall be sampled at a later date and re-evaluated to determine where it should be dumped.
E. It may be necessary at some time to discharge a tank of water with activity above 10 CFR limits to the sanitary sewer ]
by dilution of the waste. This wi'll be used only in extreme ]
need and will be performed by special procedure approved by ]
by the Reactor Manager. ]

I VII.9 Nitrogen and Valve Operating Air Systems
.VII.9.1 Purpose The primary function of the nitrogen (N2 ) system is to provide pressurized N2 to the pressurizer. The secondary function of the N2 system is to act as a backup to the air in the valve L operating system.
5 VII.9.2 System Startup The air system is in continuous operation and is normally lined up to provide service to all stations. The air to the valve operator header, however, is secured when the reactor is shut -
down so the air valve in rcom 114 must be opened prior to opera-ting any system valves.
The N2 system is operated only while the reactor is in opera-tion. Before the reactor is made operational, light off the Ny g and valve operating system by the following procedure: E A. Verify that the two banks have sufficient pressure for the impending operation. Ideally one of the banks should be full (2000-2200 psig) and the other bank should have more than 250 psig.
p B. Close the switch which energizes the electrical controls for the system.
C. Check closed the cross connect N2 to air valve V0P8.
D. Open the N2 cut out valve V0P15 in room 114, and verify a N2 pressure of 70 5 psig to the valve operator hee. der. ]
E. Close header bleed valve V0P35.
F. Open the air cut out valve V0P31 in room 114 and verify a valve operator header pressure of 100 10 psig.
G. Open the N2 to air cross connect valve V0P8.
The N2 and valve operating systems are now ready for operation.

VII.9.3 System Operation.
iij .The' operation of.the air and N2 systems is fully automatic. The operation of the system is monitored every four hours during plant operation. The only manual evolutions required are 3 changing bottles on a depleted N2 bank and blowing down the dust ]
- 'and oil filter every four hours. 'If moisture'is detected in the air bled from .the filter, .the filter should be blown down until no further traces of moisture are seen. The filter element turns a dark red color when it traps oil. .The filter element shall be changed when more than 75% of its volume has turned
- dark red-in color.
- VII.9.4 System Shutdown After th'e reactor has been secured and no further valve opera-
.tions are anticipated, the air and N systems 2 are shut down as follows: ~
A. Close the N2 to air cross-connect valve V0P8 to reduce N2 consumption.
, B. Close the N2 cut out valve V0P15 in room 114.
, C. . Close air cut out valve V0P31 in room 114.
LD. Open header bleed valve V0P35, bleed to atmospheric pressure, leaving valve open.
E. Secure the N2 control system by opening the electrical switch at the bottle station.

The emergency air compressor is always available as a backup for the air system in containment. It is checked for proper operation. weekly. The compressor assumes the load at 65 ! 10 L psig and supplies sufficient air for all door gaskets and equip-ment within the containment. The compressor is electrically p supplied from breaker #3 of the Emergercy Power Panel.
l The backup air compressor for 16B isolation valve will only operate upon failure of both the main and emergency air com-pressors. The compressor assumes the load at 60 5 psig. The compressor provides air only for valve 16B and will allow the valve to be operated as required. The compressor is electrical-ly supplied from breaker 18 of the Emergency Lighting Panel.
The instrument air compressor is always valved for operation and operates at a pressure of 70 ! 5 psig. Should this compressor fail, instrument air may be supplied from the main compressor by opening the cross-connect valve located near the compressor and closing the cut out valve for the compressor.
VII.10.3 Shutdown The main air compressor may be shut down for maintenance during operation provided that:
A. Large. volumes of air are not required for a particular evolution.
NOTE: Check need for Topaz Counting System. ]

I SECTION VIII REACTOR EXPERIMENTS VIII.1 General Requirements VIII.1.1 Reactor Utilization Request All experiments conducted in the MURR reactor facility must be approved by the Reactor Manager. The mechanism for obtaining this approval and for conducting the required staff and advis-ory committee reviews is outlined below.
A. Reactor Utilization Request Description
.l The approval and review machinery is begun by the prepara-tion of a Reactor Utilization Request (RUR). The RUR is prepared by the experimenter with the assistance of the MURR staff. Instructions are obtained from the Reactor I Manager. The RUR describes the experiment in considerable detail. It also presents the activities (and isotopes) which may be produced and details the methods of handling the radioactive waste. It also lists the Special Nuclear Material and by-product licenses applicable to the experi-ment. The most important part of the RUR and the one which should be given considerable effort in its preparation is the safety analysis. This part of the RUR shall analyze all possible accidents and transients to determine if the experiment involves an unreviewed safety question as de-fined by 10 CFR 50.59. It is important that the experi-menter thoroughly research his experiment in an attempt to resolve all questions which may arise in the review process.
B. Reviews
- 1. The initial review of the experiment is conducted by the MURR staff while they are assisting the experi-menter prepare the '"". Hopefully most of the safety questions will be raised and analyzed during this review.
Rev. 10/81 App'd VM\ SOP /VIII-1
I I
- 2. The RUR is then sent to the Manager of Health Physics (HP) for his review.
- 3. The Manager of Health Physics reviews the RUR to ensure ]
that all necessary radiological control measures will be taken in the proposed experiment. He also checks the applicability and adequacy of the by-product license (s) under which the experiment is to be conducted. However, his review is not limited to the above areas. He may recommend limitations or additional analyses in other g areas. If the Manager HP approves of the experiment, he E will indicate the additional limitations (if any) recom-mended and sign the RUR in the space provided.
- 4. The Reactor Manager will analyze the proposed experiment to determine if it represents a new class of experiment or represents a change to an existing experiment which has safety significance. If either of the above condi-tions apply the Reactor Manager will submit the RUR to tne Reactor Safety Subcommittee (RSSC) for their review. The RSSC conducts the reviews of all new experiments for the j Reactor Advisory Committee (RAC). Their review is pri- I marily directed toward determining if the new experiment t
introduces an unreviewed safety question in accordance 1 with 10 CFR 50.59. If the RSSC finds that the experi-ment does not involve an unreviewed safety questions and recommends approval, the RUR review is completed. The RSSC may, however, refer the experiment to the RAC for its review. This may be done because of unusual hazards, ] ;
special conditions involved or because the RSSC feels that an unreviewed safety question does or may exist.
1 I;
Rev. 5/02/Ro App'd bx5Q SOP /VIII-2 ]
The Reactor Advisory Committee (RAC) will normally review 5.
an experiment only if the experiment has been referred to it by the RSSC. If the RAC determines that the experiment does not involve an unreviewed safety ques-
'I tion the review process is complete.
6 If the RSSC and/or the RAC feel that a proposed experi-ment introduces an ur. reviewed safety question the exper-6 iment must be submitted to the NRC for final review.
The MURR staff will generally prepare the documents necessary for submittal to the NRC.
C. Approval of RUR After all of the reviews have been completed the Reactor Manager will indicate on the RUR any additional limi',ations required beyond those listed in the data package and will then sign the RUR as being approved. Copies of the approved RUR will be distributed to:
- 1. The experimenter
- 2. Manager of Health Physics ]
- 3. Reactor Safety Subcommittee ]
]
- 4. Reactor Advisory Committee (if RAC was involved in the review)
- 5. Reactor Service Engineer ]
D. RUR Review and Update
- 1. Active RUR's will be reviewed by the Reactor Manager ]
I and the Principal Experimenter on an annual basis.
- 2. The Principal Experimenter may use the RUR review to up-I date the experiment description; to request changes to the experiment; to change the list of authorized users on the experiment; and to f amiliarize himself with the limitations placed on the experiment.
- 3. The Reactor Manager will use the RUR review to ensure that the experiment descriptions, activities, isotopes, handling procedures, license considerat'ons and safety analysis are valid for ti,e current range of experiments.

VIII.2.1 General Requirements All in-pool irradiations must be under an approved RUR. Section 3.1 of the Technical Specification lists the reactivity limits applicable to in-pool experiments. The Reactor Services I Engineer will coordinate the loading of all in-pool experiments to insure that none of the Tech Spec reactivity limits are violated. An in-pool irradiation loading sheet will be filled ]
l out for each sample (or sample type). The completed sheets will be kept in the control room until the sample is released.
These sheets will enable the operations staff to be continuously informed of the experimental loading of all in-pool facilities.
I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd hihV\ SOP /VIII-5 ]
I
I The loading sheet will also document the reactivity worth of I the sample (s) listed on the sheet (except for bulk pool samples). ]
The Shift Supervisor shall insure that all sample handling evolutions are properly performed and documented. It shall be ]
the responsibility of the shutdown crew to verify that all ]
samples and/or spacers are properly stored and/or accounted for. ]
VIII.2.2 Sample Encapsulation All samples to be irradiated in the reactor pool will be encapsulated in either a seal-welded or crimp sealed aluminum can or a threaded aluminum capsule. Only the seal-welded can will be used in the flux trap.
The seal-welded aluminum cans have been tested to rupture pressures of 400-700 psig, but no sample will be loaded in a seal-welded can which will generate a pressure greater than 100 psig (assuming complete decomposition of the sample).
Where practicable a sample will be doubly encapsulated to minimize the possibility of release of the sample material.
All corrosive materials must be doubly encapsulated. The primary encapsulation may be an aluminum can (seal-welded or threaded) or a sealed quartz vial. The quartz vials have a very low rupture pressure so precautions must be taken to eliminate 5
possible pressure build-up when quartz vials are used. E Sample cans will be weighted if necessary to insure that the sample has negative buoyancy.
VIII.2.3 Flux ' rap Irradiations Since the flux trap region has a positive temperature and void coefficient of reactivity, additional limitations are placed on all samples to be irradiated in the flux trap.
All flux trap samples will be seal-welded, leak checked and will have a negative buoyancy.
I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd hlW\ SOP /VIII-6 ] {
I'
.The flux trap sample holder will be loaded or removed from the reactor only when the reactor is shutdown. The flux trap sample holder must be securely latched in place while it is in the reactor. DO NOT under any circumstances unlatch the flux trap until the. control blades are full in.
For verification that the flux trap is prope-ly latched, an operator other than the operator inserting the ilux trap will visually observe its proper latching.
All flux trap irradiations will be shown on a flux trap loading sheet which must be signed by the Reactor Service ]
Engineer or his designated representative. If the sample ]
loading is unique the Reactor Physicist will check the Service Engineer's calculations of the total reactivity worth and will also sign the loading sheet.
If there are insufficient samples to fully load the flux trap sample holder, the holder will be loaded with aluminum spacers to insure that the samples cannot move during reactor operation. The sample hold-down rod must be securely pinned or wired to the sample holder to satisfy the Technical Specification requirement of a secured experiment. When the loading of each tube in the flux trap is completed, the operator shall verify that the proper sample height loading has been achieved by lift-ing the unloading rod to the mark and observing that the top of-the highest sample is in line with the unloading door.
VIII.2.4 Handling of Irradiated Samples ] ,
(see H.P. SOP-4 for additional clarification)
Every effort shall be made to maximize the decay time before an irradiated sample is removed from the pool. This is done to allow short lived activity to decay. q No radioactive material will be moved in the MURR pool )
which causes a working area dose rate of as much as 100 millirem per hour without the presence of a member of the Health Physics staff who is monitoring the operation. The Health Physics monitor will monitor the operation to minimize radiation exposure to personnel, terminating the operation if necessary. l Rev. 5/02/89 Ap d D3Div\ SOP /VIII-7 ]
____ _ - - - _ - - - - - - - . - _ _ _ _ _ _ J
I Radioactive materials in the MURR pool causing working area dose rates less than 100 millirem per hour may be moved within the pool without the presence of a member of the Health Physics staff if, and only if, a licensed Reactor Operator or qualified sample handler surveys the operation.
VIII.3 Pneumatic Tube (P-tube) System Irradiations VIII.3.1 Limitations on P-tube Use A. No irradiation in the p-tube will be permitted unless it has been authorized by an approved Reactor Utilization Request (RUR).
B. The Reactor Manager will maintain a list of the approved RUR's and the limitations applicable to each RUR. This list will be kept in the control room for use by the Reactor Operator.
C. The Reactor fianager will also maintain a list of the individuals authorized to use the p-tube system and the RUR numbers they are authorized to use. An individual is placed on this list at the request of the principal experimenter for the RUR to be used. The request is made by filling out an " Experiment Utilization Request" form and submitting it to the Reactor Manager via the Manager of Health Physics. This form is used to certify that the experimenter has:
- 1. Satisfactorily completed a checkout on the use of the p-tube system including the applicable emergency procedures; ,
- 2. Received Health Physics indoctrination in those radia- I tion control measures applicable to p-tube irradiations.
A few individual experimenters will be authorized to i conduct p-tube irradiations at other than normal work-ing hours (0800-1700). This authorization will be granted only to those individuals who have considerable Rev. 5/02/89 App'd W&M S0P/VIII-8 ] i Reset i 1
experience in p-tube irradiations and have'shown out-standing knowledge and judgement in the radiation con-trol measures applicable to p-tube irradiations. The i Experiment Utilization Request form is also used to l
initiate a request for these (night time) irradiations.
D. The experimenter shall take the following radiation control measures prior to conducting p-tube irraidations:
- 1. He shall insure that a radiation detector with audible indication is in the laboratory and is operating properly.
l
- 2. He shall wear his film badge and dosimeter during the i rradi ations . If the experimenter is doing a number of irradiations, he shall check his dosimeter period-ically to prevent over exposure.
E. Normally during P-tube irradiations, the experimenter will ]
remain in the laboratory to which a dispatched rabbit will ]
return. ]
When an experimenter does not remain in the laboratory ]
to which a dispatched rabbit will return, the following ]
must be done: ]
- 1. Notify control room of intent to leave laboratory. ]
- 2. Inform control room operator of where the experimenter ]
can be reached (i.e., room and phone number). ]
- 3. Place cart in front of fume hood to which dispatched ]
rabbit will return and post the cart with the following ]

- b. Isotope ]
- c. Amount (mci, pCi) ]

VIII.3.2 Sample Limitations A. Any radionuclides having at atonic number from 3 through 83 plus tritium may be produced in the p-tube system. Activity will depend on the sample matrix, time of irradiation, and power level . Prior to the irradiation of a particular sample type, an estimate will be made of the activity produced by the major constituents. Sample activity will be limited to 25 mC1. Flux monitor, container and cadmium shield activity will be limited to 50 mC1. Higher activi-ties must be specifically authorized in the experimenter's RUR.
B. Each sample must be properly encapsulated as follows:
- 1. Solid samples will be wrapped in polyethylene or aluminum foil, sealed in polyethylene tubing or sealed in a polyethylene vial.
- 2. Liquids will be sealed in a polyethylene vial or polyethylene tubing with the ends heat sealed to prevent inadvertent spilling. Liquids cther than water and biological fluids will be double encapsu-lated with the secondary encapsulation being a high density polyethylene rabbit.
- 3. Powder sanoles will be sealed in a polyethylene vial and irradiated in a high density polyethylene rabbit.
Boron and boron compounds in powder form will be sealed {
in high density polyethylene within the rabbit.
- 4. A metal liner such as cadmium sheet may be used in the rabbit providing it is in one piece and covers at least 80 percent of the rabbit's interior surface. The experimenter shall take measures to insure that the heat generated by the metal can be dissipated and will not cause damage to the sample or rabbit.
- 5. The experimenter shall insure that the sample is )
adequately secured in the rabbit (by polyethylene l packing, etc.) so that the motion within the rabbit is minimized. ,

3 C. Material which may be irradiated in the p-tube system includes water, plant and animal tissue and fluids, bone, l.
air filters, soils, rocks, soil extracts, coal, paper, meteorites, fibers, dried paint, safe insulation and
~ I~ glass. Pure elements, alloys and compounds not exempted in D below may also be irradiated subject to the activity limitations in A.
D. Unless it is specifically sathorized in the experimenter's
- RUR, the following materials will not be . irradiated in the p-tube system:
l E. 1. Natural uranium;
- 2. Special nuclear materials as defined in Title 10, Part
]
70, Paragraph 70.4m of the Federal Code of Regulations (i.e., plutonium, uranium-233, or uranium enriched in t isotope 233 or 235);
- 3. Pure elements: Li , Na, K, Rb, Cs , Ca, Sr, Ba, Hg, Os ,
H, 0, F, Ne, Ar, Kr. Xe, and P;
- 4. Compounds: NH 4 NO 3 , CaC 2 , Ca0, perchlorate, perman-ganates, Na20 , and Na202;
- 5. Materials which chemically react with water to produce undesirable quantities of heat and pressure;
- 6. Any explosive, flammable, combustible, or toxic materials.
F. Capsules may be run shielded with cadmium or boron (as ]
boron, BC, or BN) but weight and time are restricted due to the heat generated and their reactivity effect on the I reactor. The experimenter shall take measures to insure the heat generated can be dissipated without causing damage to the rabbit or sample. The following limitations apply to shielded capsules in addition to the activity limits of Section VIII.3.2.A:
I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd M SOP /VIII-11 ]
g
- 1. The authorized p-tube user will inform the control room he is going to run sF.91ded capsules and will insert the rabbit so that the cap is on top when the rabbit is in the reactor.
- 2. Cadmium shielded capsules:
- a. 5 or less grams of cadmium may be run for up to 30 minutes.
- b. 50 or less grams of cadmium may be run for up to 10 seconds in row 1 or 20 seconds in row 2.
- 3. Boron shielded capsules:
NOTE: The weight limit is only on the boron, i.e.,
the carbon weight in BC does not count towards the weight limit.
- a. 10 or less grams of boron may be run for up to g 10 seconds in row 1 cr 20 seconds in row 2. m
- b. Between 10 to 15 grams of boron may be run up to 10 seconds in row 1 or 20 seconds in row 2, but must be approved by Director of NAA and Reactor ]
Manager prior to running.
G. Except for the boron or cadmium shielded samples, the con- ]
trolling factor for determining the weight and time limits of a sample to be irradiated in the p-tube is the activity limitation of Section A. If the activity limits do not further restrict a sample's size, the following weight limits shall apply:
E
- 1. For irradiation times up to 30 minutes, the maximum E weight of irradiated materials in one rabbit will be 2 grams with two exceptions:
- a. A maximum of 10 grams of water or dried feces;
- b. Only 1 mg of chemical compounds in solution.
l 2. For irradiation times of 30 minutes to I hour, the maximum weight of irradiated materials in one rabbit l
will be 1 gram with two exceptions:
- a. A maximum of 10 grams of water or dried feces; i
- b. Only 500 pg of chemical compounds in solution.
~
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd OlB(f\ 50P/VIII-12 ] 1 Ili
The weight limits above do not include the weight of the rabbit, polyethylene vial, or packing, or the cadmium (or ether metal) shields.
The maximum irradiation time for most samples will be one hour at power levels 15 MW and 30 minutes for power levels > 5 MW Hair, fibers, paint, air filters and flux monitors may be irradiated for a maximum of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> at' power levels 15 MW and 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> at power levels > 5 MW.
The following additional limitations shall apply for irradiations > 10 minutes:
- 1. Primary encapsulation will be heat-sealed high-density polyethylene vials (Holland vials).
- 2. Liquid samples may be irradiated for up to 30 minutes provided pin holes are punched in the top of the poly-thylene vial to relieve prenure.
Deviations from the above weight and time limitations must be specifically authorized in the experimenter's RUR.
VIII.3.3 Rabbit Limitations A. The only type of rabbit which may be used in the p-tube ]
system is the high density rabbit. This type of rabbit will be used for all irradiations (see Section VIII.3.2.B). Each ]
high density rabbit will be limited to six insertions or two hours of total irradiation, whichever occurs first. To account for the irradiation history of high density rabbits, the experimenter will place one mark with a marking pen on the high density rabbit for each insertion up to and including 10 minutes. For irradiations longer than 10 min-utes, a mark will be placed on the rabbit for each 10 min-ute period or fraction thereof. For example, if a rabbit is irradiated for 25 minutes, it will receive 3 marks. When a rabbit has received 6 marks, it will be discarded. Each rabbit must be examined for cracks or other signs of potential failure before it is used.

VIII.4 Beamport Experiments VIII.4.1 General Requirements As with all other experiments, beamport irradiations and I- measurements must be authorized by an approved TUR.
A. There are four major hazards involved with beamport experi-ments. The are:
- 1. Changes in reactor reactivity due to beanport activities such as draining or flooding a beamport.
- 2. Exposure of personnel to radiation as a result of move-ments of shielding or inadequate shielding.
- 3. Release of radioactive gases such as Ar-41 which are produced in the beamport.
- 4. A production of explosive or toxic materials in the I B.
beamport.
The limitations listed below are established to minimize or eliminate these hazards.
- 1. The AEC Regulations Title 10 Part 50 Section 50.54(j) require that " Apparatus and mechanisms other than con-trols, the operation of which may affect the reactivity or power level of a reactor shall be manipulated only with the knowledge and consent of an Operator or Senior Operator licensed pursuant to Part 55 of this chapter present at the controls." Because of this regulation, all beamport evolutions such as draining, filling or evacuating the port will be done by Reactor Operations personnel. Care must also be exercised in filling a drained beanport. The air within a drained port will be activated during reactor operation and this activated air is forced out of the port during the filling opera-tion. These activated gases present a radiation hazard to personnel in cor',ainment and can also result in a release of radioactive gases in excess of the license limit. This potential hazard is another reason for requiring that only reactor operations personnel be Rev. 5L02/89 App'd V8TG\ SOP /VIII-19 ]

l permitted to fill, drain, or evacuate a beamport. When-ever practical, all changes in beamport st$tus shall be made only after the reactor has been shutdown for at least 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.
- 2. All shielding movements (including temporary movements which will be returned to normal) shall be coordinated with Health Physics personnel. This restriction is necessary to insure that no personnel radiation hazard is introduced by movement of beamoort shielding.
- 3. The gamma and neutron radiation levels in a beamport can easily induce chemical reactions which would g normally require ext. eme temperature and/or pressure B conditions in the laboratory. The Technical Specifica-tions are quite restrictive on the use of or the generation of explosive materials in an experiment.
An experimenter should evaluate the possibility of the generation of explosives from any materials that are placed in a beamport experiment.
Section VIII.1.2 outlines the limitation on the use of toxic and flammable materials. This section is written to restrict the introduction of toxic and flammable materials in an experiment or in the contain-ment building. The experimenter is cautioned, however, that a toxic or flammable may be generated in a beamport from some perfectly harmless material, and thus should analyze the possible reactions from any material he introduces into his experiment.
l NOTE: The experimental can may be flooded or drained only when the reactor is shutdown.

I I VIII.4.6 Operating Procedures for Beamport "F" ]
The following procedures shall be used for operation of Beamport ]
"F". All valve and tube changes shall be made by Reactor Opera- ]
tions personnel. Major shielding movements and all center tube ]
adjustments or changes shall be coordinated with Health Physics ]
and Reactor Operations personnel. A copy of this procedure ]
shall be posted near Beamport "F" and a copy shall be put in the ]
Beamport "F" log book. ]
CAUTIONS:
- Insure center tabe is not left fully inserted; allow ]
at least 1/4 inch for thermal expansion. ]
- After the center tube is inserted, verify the drain ]
and vent valves are shut. ]
o To prevent a partially filled beam tube leaving a crack ]
for radiation, be sure the vent tank has water in it. ]
- To limit handling of a very radioactive filter tube, ]
pull the tube back four feet and let it decay for > 2 ]
days before withdrawing it. Have Health Physics ]
coverage. ]
- To limit tritium release, limit leakage of water. ]
e To prevent excessive personnel exposure, make sure ]
filter parts are in tube and pushed forward to reactor ]
end of filter tube. Apply vacuum slowly so that filter ]
parts are not sucked back. Have Health Physics coverage ]
on startup. ]
e After startup, check Health Physics readings against ]
previous readings with similar filters. ]
- Make it a Mbit to stay out of beams, whether they are ]
open or " closed". ] ]
]
NOTE: The experimental can may be flooded or drained only ] l when the reactor is shut down. ]
]
Rev. 5/02/89 App'd M SOP /VIII-33 ]
I The water level in the surge tank shall be checked and nain- ]
tained by operations. Makeup water should be " super" water. ]
The principle experimenter should send a note to operations ]
asking for a change in filters and tubes. The note should reach ]
operations before the shutdown. The principle experimenter is ] /
responsible for verifying the desired filtering material is in ]
a center tube before it is inserted and that it is covered in ]
his RUR. To facilitate in verifying materials, all filter parts ]
should be marked and their storage should be controlled because ]
of their activation and potential contamination. ]
A. Installing Center Tubes in Beamport "F" ] *
- 1. Center tubes shall be installed into Beamport "F" only ]
with the reactor shutd an. ]
- 2. Verify the Beacport "F center tube sealing "0"-ring ]
is in place and in good condition. ]
- 3. With Health Physics coverage, transfer the desired ]
center tube from storage to Beanport "F" and insert it ]
until contact is made with the ball valve. Note the ]
change in the Beamport Storage Log. ]
- 4. Lightly tighten the center tube "0"-ring packing nut; ] g check the drain valve and vent valve closed and open ] a the surge tank line valve. ]
- 5. Open the center tube ball valve and insert the center ]
tube. The center tube packing nut may need to be ]
adjusted so the tube can be inserted with minimal ] ,
water leakage. ]
- 6. With the center tube fully inserted, pull the tube out ] l the distance desired by the experimenter. It must be ]
pulled out at least 1/4 of an inch to allow for thermal ]
expansion. ]
- 7. The center tube end plate shall be removed and a rod ] g inserted in the tube to verify the filter slugs are at ] E the end of the tube closest to the reactor core. ]
I Rev. 5/02/89 App'd {MPf(\ SOP /VIII-34 ]
l
- 8. The vacuum pump shall be hooked up and started before ] !
the reactor is taken critical. The vacuum should be ]

REACTOR EMERGENCY , '9CEDURES INTRODUCTION
'It cannot be overly stressed that the guideline for any emergency procedure shall be actions which safeguard personnel and equipment, in that order.
If, while operating the University of Missouri Research Reactor, a situation develops that requires an emergency action as set forth in these procedures, it must be remembered that for a transient type accident, Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50.36, dictates certain actions as pertaining to safety limits and limiting safety system settings. In the case of a transient type accident, the Shift Supervisor must determine before resuming operation if a safety limit, as illustrated by the safety limit curves set forth in the MURR Technical Specifications has been exceeded. If, in fact, a limit has been exceeded, the reactor shall remain shutdown until the Commission authorizes resumption of opera-tion. 1.imiting safety settings are those settings which will initiate autonatic action to prevent exceeding a safety limit. If a safety system setting is exceeded without receiving an automatic function trip, the reactor shall be shut down and the Commission notified. The cause of the failure will be noted and corrective action taken before operations resume.
The following actions shall be taken by reactor operating personnel for the conditions listed.

t SECTION III I REVISIONS TO THE HAZV DS
SUMMARY
REPORT 1 July 1988 tnrough 30 June 1989 HAZARDS
SUMMARY
REPORT (original July 1,1965)
I Section 8.4 of Original Hazards Summary:
This section was revised in its entirety in the 1987-1988 Annual Report. The last sentence of the third paragraph of that revision should be changed from: g "The graphite elements at positions 5A, 5B and 6 have been replaced with elements that each accommodate a 5-1/2 inch 0.D. irradiation basket."
to:
"The graphite elements at positions SA and 5B have been replaced with elements that each accommodate a 5-1/2 inch 0.D. irradiation basket. The graphite element at position 6 has been replaced with an element containing a solid graphite block which provides one 3 inch 0.D. irradiation I basket and a 1/4 inch I.D. hole to house self-powered neutron detectors."
I I
I 111-1
l .
SECTION IV l
PLANT AND SYSTE!! 110 DEIFICATIONS 1 July 1988 through 30 June 1989 SEPTEf1BER 1988 liodification 88-3: This modification replaces a refle'ctor Gement installed in February 1988 (reported as flodification 87-1 in the 198/-88 Annual Report). The element replaced had a 5-1/2" diameter irradiation position and contained neutron absorbing material. The new element is con-structed of aluminum and graphite and has a 3" diameter irradiation basket.
The new element, like the element it replaces, has been designed to allow reflector element removal withcut withdrawing the beam tube. This was accomplished by omitting the lower hook section that encircled Beamport "D" in the original element design. The safety evaluation for this modification documents that it does not present an unrtviewed safety question as per 10 CFR 50.59.
OCTOBER 1988 flodification 88-8: This mod'ification record documents the sealing of the containment building internal surfaces with an elastomeric resin-water base copolymer coinpound (commercial name, Decadex). The surfaces sealed were the north, west and south containment walls, the walls of the pipe chase on the south wall of containment, the underside of the prestressed beams in the containment ceilitig, and the walls and ceiling of the north laboratory area on the beamport floor.
Addendum 2 of 11URR Hazards Summary Report discusses the application of a sealant to the concrete containment walls to enhance leak proofing. The sealant used in this modification again only serves to enhance the leak proofing of the containment dalls.
The safety evaluation for this modification documents that it does not present an unreviewed safety question as per 10 CFR 50.59.
IV-1
liAY 1989 11 modification 89-2: This modification bypasses the " blade full-in" photocell when the rod drop timer switch is turned on during the performance of CP-10, the compliance check that measures control blade drop times.
The rod drop timer photocell is located at the 20% withdrawn position and the " blade full-in" photocell is located at the full inserted control blade position. The bypass ensures that the control blade drop time is measured between the control blade full out position and the 20% withdrawn i position as per Technical Specification 3.2.c.
This modification does not effect the rod control system. The rod drop timer circuitry is independent of the rod control system. The safety evaluation for this modification documents that it does not present an unreviewed safety question as per 10 CFR 50.59.
I JUNE 1989 11 modification 89-1: This modification adds an interlock to the pool cleanup pump (P513B) control circuitry to prevent its operation if the pool isolation valve (V509) is not open. Before this interlock was added, it was possible to pump water from the 6,000 gallon holdup tank and an isolated pool system to the bulk pool via the cleanup system if the P5138 pump was inad-vertently left on after closing V509.
This modification provides an interlock to back up the standard oper-ating procedure for securing the pool system. The safety evaluation for this modification documents that it does not present an unreviewed safety question as per 10 CFR 50.59.

- 3. Fuel Procurement: Babcock and Wilcox, Lynchburg, Virginia is MURR's current fuel assembly fabricator. This work is contracted with the U. S. Department i of Energy and administered by E G & G Idaho, Idaho Falls, Idaho. As of 1
30 June 1989, ninety-one fuel assemblies fabricated by Babcock & Wilcox had been received and ninety-one used in cores at 10 MW.
l 4. Licensing Activities: On October 20, 1988, the Nuclear Regulatory l Commission approved Amendment No.16 to the Facility Operating License No.
I R-103.
The amendment (1) authorizes an increase in the amount of depleted urantum that may be received, possessed, and used f rom 20 kg. to 50 kg., (2) authorizes the receipt, possession, and use of up to 40 grams of plutonium in the form of a sealed rod source, (3)
I removes the requirement that the pool cooling system pumps operate in parallel, (4) updates the facility organizational structure, and (5) corrects a typographical error and replaces references to the AEC with NRC.
On February 16, 1989, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved Amendment No.17 to the Facility Operating License No. R-103.
This amendment restored the phrase "to which the system was originally designed and fabricated or to specifications" that had been renoved from Technical Specification 6.1.e in error in a previous Technical Specification Amendment request (Anendment No. 16).
On May 8,1989, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved Amendment No.
18 to the Facility Operating License No. R-103.
This amendment, effective Ju?y 1,1989, approved the new administrative organization chart that reflects the shift of administrative authority for the MURR from the University of Missouri System to the University of Missouri at Columbia.

- 5. Reactor Characteristic Measurements: Seventy-one refueling evolutions were completed. An excess reactivity verification was performed for each refueling and the average excess reactivity was 1.7%. MJRR Technical Specification 3.1(f) requires that the excess reactivity be less than 9.8%.
Reactivity measurements were performed for 18 evolutions to verify reactivity parameters for the flux trap. Five shim and regulating blade
. calibrations were performed. Three measurements were made of the worth of irradiation wedge replacement.
Physical inspections of the following fuel elements were performed to verify the operational parameters.
M0248 from Core 47 2/3/89 M0240 from Core 46 2/6/89 M0232 from Core 45 2/6/89 M0256 from Core 48 5/5/89 All measurements were within operational requirements.

On July 29, 1988, the cause I was found to be the result of improvements made on the facility air con-ditioning system. Airborne tritium removed by the air conditioner was discovered in the consensate line, which was being released to the storm sewer system. The condensate line was rerouted on August 23, 1988 to empty into the waste tank system to ensare mnitoring of the tritium prior to release. Release concentrations to unrestricted areas were esti-mated to be less than 4.10 E-04 uCi/ml (147, MPC, Table II) during the period of identified release to the storm sewer: April 28,1988 through August 23, 1988. Total release was estimated to be 0.1 Ci f ron April 28, 1988 to June 30,1988 and 0.07 Ci fren July 1,1988 to August 23, 1988.
The total tritium release through the air conditioning line from August 24, 1988 to June 30, 1989 is included in the 0.035 Ci reported for j tritium in this. sanitary sewer releas'e report. Comparing these results, the release of tritium to the storm sewer system is believed to be con-I servative in its'over-estimation.

Miscellaneous Items The new Health Physics Technician position was filled by Joseph DeMers in January 1989. Mr. DeMers was honorably discharged from the Navy in December 1988, where he had gained experience as .a Leading Engineering Laboratory Tech-nician and a trainer at the Naval Nuclear Power Training Unit in New York. As of September '1988, John Ernst (Health Physicist) became a Certified Health Physicist (CHP) after successfully completing the examination given by the American Soard of Health Physics (ABHP). Dr. Susan Langhorst (Manager, Reactor Health Physics and CHP) was appointed to a three year term on the Panel of Examiners for Part Two of the ABHP Certification Examination.
Health Physics Procedure #33, " Operation of Sample Counting Systems" was added to the HP SOPS and Health Physics Procedure #27, " Calibration of Sample Counting Systems" was modified in order to incorporate the instructions for using the Canberra Model 2400 Alpha / Beta / Gamma System. Copies of these pro-cedures are attached at the end of this section.
ADC0 Services, Inc. has continued to act as our institutional waste broker. Through ADCO, MURR disposed of 487.5 cubic feet of LSA material gen-erated at MURR. In addition, a dedicated waste shipment was made through Chem I Nuclear to dispose of 13.1 cubic feet of irradiated metal hardware consisting of used graphite elements and miscellaneous activated reactor components.
As anticipated, the production of radioisotopes used in radiopharmaceuti-cals at MURR has continued to grow. Phase Two clinical trials utilizing the l
Sm-153 bone agent produced at MURR is expected to require the handling of two to four times the activity currently being handled. Extremity doses expected from handling these amount of Sm-153 with the current equipment and procedures were j
considered to be unacceptable for ALARA. Therefore, a dedicated facility was designed and built to remotely perform the manipulations required to handle the IX-8
I increased Sm-153 activity and to also ensure the sterility of producing the final drug product. The extremity monitoring used during the handling of these radioisotopes, as described in the MURR Operations Annual Report 1987/88, has shown that gamma radiation makes up the majority of the extremity exposures.
The data for the cases where beta radiation exposure has been detected on the extremity badges have been reviewed by Dr. Craig Yoder of Landauer. Correction f actors have been estimated by Dr. Yoder to adjust the readings recorded by the ring badge data to account for the component of beta dose recorded by the wrist badges. This collaboration between Drs. Langhorst and Yoder is continuing.
