1.0 DESCRIPTION

The proposed amendment would modify the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS) technical specifications (TS) by relocating specific surveillance frequencies to a licensee-controlled program with the adoption of Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF)-425, Revision 3, Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - Risk Informed Technical Specification Task Force (RITSTF) Initiative 5b. Additionally, the change would add a new program, the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (SFCP), to TS Section 5.0, Administrative Controls.

The proposed changes are consistent with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)-

approved Industry/TSTF Standard Technical Specification (STS) change TSTF-425, Revision 3 (Accession No. ML090850642); however, FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company (FENOC) proposes certain variations and deviations from TSTF-425, Revision 3, for the proposed DBNPS amendment as discussed in Section 2.2, Optional Changes and Variations. The Federal Register notice published on July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996) announced the availability of this TS improvement.

2.0 ASSESSMENT 2.1 Applicability of Published Safety Evaluation FENOC has reviewed the safety evaluation (SE) dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996). This review included a review of the NRC staffs evaluation, TSTF-425, Revision 3, and the requirements specified in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 04-10, Revision 1, "Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 5b, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies,"

dated April 2007 (Accession No. ML071360456).

Documentation of DBNPS Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) Technical Adequacy includes FENOC documentation with regard to PRA technical adequacy consistent with the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.200, Revision 1, An Approach for Determining the Technical Adequacy of Probabilistic Risk Assessment Results for Risk-Informed Activities (Accession No. ML070240001).

FENOC has concluded that the justifications presented in the TSTF proposal and the SE prepared by the NRC staff are applicable to the DBNPS and justify this amendment to incorporate the changes to the DBNPS TS.

2.2 Optional Changes and Variations The proposed amendment is consistent with the standard TS changes described in TSTF-425, Revision 3; however, FENOC proposes the following variations or deviations:

Revised (clean) TS pages are not included in this amendment request given the number of TS pages affected, the straightforward nature of the proposed changes, and outstanding license amendment requests that may affect some of the same TS pages.

Providing only mark-ups of the proposed TS changes satisfies the requirements of 10 CFR 50.90, Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit, in that the mark-ups fully describe the changes desired. This is an administrative deviation from the NRC staffs model application dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996) with no impact on the NRC staffs model SE published in the same Federal Register Notice. As a result of this deviation, the contents and numbering of the

FENOC Description and Assessment of the Proposed Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 3 of 8 attachments for this amendment request differ from the attachments specified in the NRC staffs model application. This deviation is consistent with many other industry applications adopting TSTF-425.

The insert provided in TSTF-425 for the TS Bases (Insert 2) states, The Surveillance Frequency is based on operating experience, equipment reliability, and plant risk and is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program. In a letter dated April 14, 2010 (Accession No. ML100990099), the NRC staff agreed that the insert applies to surveillance frequencies that are relocated and subsequently evaluated and changed in accordance with the SFCP but does not apply to frequencies relocated to the SFCP, but not changed. Therefore, the insert for the TS Bases is revised to, The Surveillance Frequency is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program, or The Surveillance Frequencies are controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program, as appropriate. This is an administrative deviation from TSTF-425 with no impact on the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996). The existing TS Bases information describing the basis for the surveillance frequency will be relocated to the licensee-controlled SFCP.

The definition of STAGGERED TEST BASIS is being retained in the DBNPS TS Section 1.1, Definitions because this term is used in Administrative TS Section 5.5.17, "Control Room Envelope Habitability Program." TS 5.5.17 is not affected by implementation of TSTF-425 and is not proposed to be changed. This is an administrative deviation from TSTF-425 with no impact on the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996).

The TSTF-425 TS Section 5.5.18 insert references NEI 04-10, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies. The proposed DBNPS TS Section 5.5.18 references NEI 04-10, Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 5b, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies. This is an administrative deviation from TSTF-425 with no impact on the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996).

The TSTF-425 Versus Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS) Cross-Reference is provided for information and is a cross-reference between the NUREG-1430, Standard Technical Specifications Babcock and Wilcox Plants, Surveillance Requirements (SRs) included in TSTF-425 versus the DBNPS SRs included in this amendment request. The cross-reference includes a summary description of the referenced TSTF-425 (NUREG-1430)/DBNPS TS SRs, which is provided for information purposes only and is not intended to be a verbatim description of the TS SRs. The cross-reference contains the following items:

a) NUREG-1430 SRs included in TSTF-425 and corresponding DBNPS SRs with identical SR numbers b) NUREG-1430 SRs included in TSTF-425 and corresponding DBNPS SRs with differing SR numbers These are administrative variations from TSTF-425 with no impact on the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996).

Some DBNPS SRs in a) and b) above may differ from the corresponding NUREG-1430 SR in equipment names, grammatical structure, additional descriptive information, units of measurement for a parameter, or other differences. These differences have been evaluated and determined not to impact the applicability of TSTF-425. These are

FENOC Description and Assessment of the Proposed Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 4 of 8 identified and discussed in the Notes column of the cross-reference table; are not considered deviations from TSTF-425, and therefore, have no impact on the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996). The DBNPS SRs with numbering that differs from the corresponding NUREG-1430 SRs are administrative variations from TSTF-425 with no impact on the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996).

c) NUREG-1430 SRs included in TSTF-425 that are not contained in the DBNPS TS For NUREG-1430 SRs that are not contained in the DBNPS TS, the corresponding NUREG-1430 mark-ups included in TSTF-425 for these SRs are not applicable to DBNPS. These are administrative variations from TSTF-425 with no impact on the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996).

d) DBNPS plant-specific SRs that are not contained in NUREG-1430, and therefore, are not included in the TSTF-425 mark-ups The following SRs are DBNPS plant-specific and therefore considered variations from TSTF-425:

These DBNPS plant-specific SRs involve fixed periodic frequencies and do not meet any of the four exclusion criteria of TSTF-425, Revision 3. The four criteria that exclude surveillance frequencies from being relocated are:

Frequencies that reference other approved programs for the specific interval (such as the Inservice Testing Program or the Primary Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program);

Frequencies that are purely event driven (for example, Each time the control rod is withdrawn to the full out position);

Frequencies that are event-driven but have a time component for performing the surveillance on a one-time basis once the event occurs (for example, within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after thermal power reaching 95% RTP); and Frequencies that are related to specific conditions (for example, battery degradation, age, and capacity) or conditions for the performance of a surveillance requirement (for example, drywell to suppression chamber differential pressure decrease).

In accordance with TSTF-425, changes to the frequencies for SRs with periodic frequencies that do not meet the exclusion criteria would be controlled under the SFCP.

The SFCP provides the necessary administrative controls to require that SRs related to testing, calibration, and inspection are conducted at a frequency to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within safety limits, and that the limiting conditions for operation will be met. Changes to frequencies in the SFCP would be evaluated using the methodology and probabilistic risk guidelines contained in NEI 04-10, Revision 1, as approved by NRC letter dated September 19, 2007 (Accession No. ML072570267). The NEI 04-10, Revision 1, methodology includes qualitative considerations, risk analyses, sensitivity studies and bounding analyses, as necessary, and recommended monitoring of the performance of systems, structures, and components (SSCs) for which frequencies are changed to assure that reduced testing does not adversely impact the SSCs. In addition, the NEI 04-10, Revision 1, methodology satisfies the five key safety principles specified in Regulatory Guide 1.177, An Approach for Plant-Specific, Risk-Informed

FENOC Description and Assessment of the Proposed Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 6 of 8 Decisionmaking: Technical Specifications, dated August 1998, relative to changes in SR frequencies.

Relocation of these frequencies is consistent with TSTF-425, Revision 3, and with the NRC staffs model SE dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996), including the scope exclusions identified in Section 1.0, Introduction, of the model SE. These variations are identified and discussed in the Notes column of the cross-reference table.

3.0 REGULATORY ANALYSIS

3.1 No Significant Hazards Consideration FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company (FENOC) has reviewed the proposed no significant hazards consideration determination (NSHCD) published in the Federal Register dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996). FENOC has concluded that the proposed NSHCD presented in the Federal Register notice is applicable to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station and satisfies the requirements of 10 CFR 50.91(a). The NSHCD is provided below.

Description of Amendment Request:

This change request involves the adoption of an approved change to the standard technical specifications (STS) for Babcock and Wilcox Plants (NUREG-1430), to allow relocation of specific technical specifications (TS) surveillance frequencies to a licensee-controlled program.

The proposed change is described in Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Traveler, TSTF-425, Revision 3 (Accession No. ML090850642), related to the Relocation of Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - RITSTF Initiative 5b and is described in the Notice of Availability published in the Federal Register on July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996).

The proposed changes are consistent with Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)-approved Industry/TSTF Traveler, TSTF-425, Revision 3, Relocate Surveillance Frequencies to Licensee Control - RITSTF Initiative 5b. The proposed change relocates surveillance frequencies to a licensee-controlled program, the Surveillance Frequency Control Program. This change is applicable to licensees using probabilistic risk guidelines contained in NRC-approved NEI 04-10, Risk-Informed Technical Specifications Initiative 5b, Risk-Informed Method for Control of Surveillance Frequencies, (Accession No. ML071360456).

Basis for proposed no significant hazards consideration:

As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the FENOC analysis of the issue of no significant hazards consideration is presented below:

1. Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed change relocates the specified frequencies for periodic surveillance requirements to licensee control under a new Surveillance Frequency Control Program. Surveillance frequencies are not an initiator to any accident previously evaluated. As a result, the probability of any accident previously evaluated is not significantly increased. The systems and components required by the technical specifications for which the surveillance frequencies are relocated are still required to be operable, meet the acceptance criteria for the surveillance

FENOC Description and Assessment of the Proposed Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 7 of 8 requirements, and be capable of performing any mitigation function assumed in the accident analysis. As a result, the consequences of any accident previously evaluated are not significantly increased.

Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2. Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

No new or different accidents result from utilizing the proposed change. The changes do not involve a physical alteration of the plant (that is, no new or different type of equipment will be installed) or a change in the methods governing normal plant operation. In addition, the changes do not impose any new or different requirements. The changes do not alter assumptions made in the safety analysis. The proposed changes are consistent with the safety analysis assumptions and current plant operating practice.

Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

3. Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety?

Response: No.

The design, operation, testing methods, and acceptance criteria for systems, structures, and components (SSCs), specified in applicable codes and standards (or alternatives approved for use by the NRC) will continue to be met as described in the plant licensing basis (including the final safety analysis report and bases to TS), since these are not affected by changes to the surveillance frequencies. Similarly, there is no impact to safety analysis acceptance criteria as described in the plant licensing basis. To evaluate a change in the relocated surveillance frequency, FENOC will perform a probabilistic risk evaluation using the guidance contained in NRC approved NEI 04-10, Revision 1, in accordance with the TS Surveillance Frequency Control Program. NEI 04-10, Revision 1, methodology provides reasonable acceptance guidelines and methods for evaluating the risk increase of proposed changes to surveillance frequencies consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.177, An Approach for Plant-Specific, Risk-Informed Decisionmaking: Technical Specifications.

Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based upon the reasoning presented above, FENOC concludes that the requested change does not involve a significant hazards consideration as set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), Issuance of Amendment.

3.2 Applicable Regulatory Requirements A description of the proposed changes and their relationship to applicable regulatory requirements is provided in TSTF-425, Revision 3 and the NRC's model safety evaluation published in the Notice of Availability dated July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996). FENOC has concluded that the relationship of the proposed changes to the applicable regulatory requirements

FENOC Description and Assessment of the Proposed Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 8 of 8 presented in the Federal Register notice is applicable to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station.

3.3 Conclusions In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

FENOC has reviewed the environmental consideration included in the NRCs model safety evaluation published in the Federal Register on July 6, 2009 (74 FR 31996). FENOC has concluded that the NRC staff's findings presented in the published evaluation are applicable to Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station and the determination is incorporated by reference for this application.

No Change - Provided for SDM Information Only B 3.1.1 BASES APPLICABILITY (continued) shutdown reactivity requirements are given in LCO 3.9.1, Boron Concentration.

ACTIONS A.1 If the SDM requirements are not met, boration must be initiated promptly.

A Completion Time of 15 minutes is adequate for an operator to correctly align and start the required systems and components. It is assumed that boration will be continued until the SDM requirements are met. If the SDM limit is not met due to high steam generator level, RCS boration must be continued until the SDM for an RCS average temperature of

< 280°F is achieved.

In the determination of the required combination of boration flow rate and boron concentration, there is no unique requirement that must be satisfied. Since it is imperative to raise the boron concentration of the RCS as soon as possible, the boron concentration should be a highly concentrated solution, such as that normally found in the boric acid addition tanks or the borated water storage tank. The operator should borate with the best source available for the plant conditions.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.1.1.1 REQUIREMENTS The SDM is verified by performing a reactivity balance calculation, considering, but not limited to, the listed reactivity effects:

a. RCS boron concentration;
b. CONTROL ROD position;
c. RCS average temperature;
d. Fuel burnup based on gross thermal energy generation;
e. Xenon concentration;
f. Samarium concentration; and
g. Isothermal temperature coefficient (ITC).

Using the ITC accounts for Doppler reactivity in this calculation because the reactor is subcritical, and the fuel temperature will be changing at the same rate as the RCS.

B.1 If any Required Action and associated Completion Time cannot be met, the unit must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the unit must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. If the SDM for MODE 3 is not met, then boration required by Required Action A.1 of LCO 3.1.1 would occur. The allowed Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is reasonable, based on operating experience to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.1.2.1 REQUIREMENTS Core reactivity is verified by periodic comparisons of measured and predicted RCS boron concentrations. The comparison is made considering that other core conditions are fixed or stable, including CONTROL ROD and APSR positions, RCS average temperature, THERMAL POWER, fuel burnup based on gross thermal energy generation, xenon concentration, and samarium concentration. The Surveillance is performed prior to entering MODE 1 as an initial check on core conditions and design calculations at BOC. A Note is included in the SR to indicate that the normalization of predicted core reactivity to the measured value must take place within the first 60 effective full power days (EFPD) after each fuel loading. This allows sufficient time for core conditions to reach steady state, but prevents operation for a large fraction of the fuel cycle without establishing a benchmark for the design calculations. The required subsequent Frequency of 31 EFPD, following the initial 60 EFPD after entering MODE 1 is acceptable, based on the slow rate of core reactivity changes due to fuel depletion and the presence of other indicators (QPT, etc.) for prompt indication of an anomaly. Another Note is included in the SRs to indicate that the performance of the Surveillance is not required for entry into MODE 2.

Provided for Information Only CONTROL ROD Group Alignment Limits B 3.1.4 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.1.4.1 REQUIREMENTS Verification that individual rods are aligned within 6.5% of their group average height limits at a 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> Frequency allows the operator to detect a rod that is beginning to deviate from its expected position. The specified Frequency takes into account other rod position information that is continuously available to the operator in the control room, so that during actual rod motion, deviations can immediately be detected.

SR 3.1.4.2 Insert 3 Verifying each CONTROL ROD is OPERABLE would require that each rod be tripped. However, in MODES 1 and 2, tripping each CONTROL ROD could result in radial tilts. Exercising each individual CONTROL ROD that is not fully inserted every 92 days provides increased confidence that all rods continue to be OPERABLE without exceeding the alignment limit, even if they are not regularly tripped. Moving each CONTROL ROD by 3% will not cause radial or axial power tilts, or oscillations, to occur. The 92 day Frequency takes into consideration other information available to the operator in the control room and SR 3.1.4.1, which is performed more frequently and adds to the determination of OPERABILITY of the rods. Between required performances of SR 3.1.4.2 (determination of CONTROL ROD Insert 3 OPERABILITY by movement), if a CONTROL ROD(S) is discovered to be immovable, but is determined to be trippable, the CONTROL ROD(S) is considered to be OPERABLE. At any time, if a CONTROL ROD(S) is immovable, a determination of the trippability (OPERABILITY) of the CONTROL ROD(S) must be made, and appropriate action taken.

SR 3.1.4.3 Verification of rod drop time allows the operator to determine that the maximum rod drop time permitted is consistent with the assumed rod drop time used in the safety analysis. The rod drop time given in the safety analysis is 1.4 seconds to 2/3 insertion. Using the identical rod drop curve gives a value of 1.58 seconds to 3/4 insertion. The latter value is used in the Surveillance because the zone reference lights are located at 3/4 insertion, which provides the most accurate position indication. The zone reference lights will activate at 3/4 insertion to give an indication of the rod drop time and rod location. Measuring rod drop times, prior to reactor criticality after reactor vessel head removal, ensures that the reactor internals and CRDM will not interfere with CONTROL ROD motion or rod drop time. This Surveillance is performed during a plant outage, due to the plant conditions needed to perform the SR and the potential for an unplanned plant transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power.

This alternative assumes the APSR group movement does not cause the limits of LCO 3.2.2, "AXIAL POWER SHAPING ROD (APSR) Insertion Limits," to be exceeded. For this reason, APSR group movement is only practical for instances where small movements of the APSR group are sufficient to re-establish APSR alignment.

The reactor may continue in operation with the APSR misaligned if the limits on AXIAL POWER IMBALANCE are surveilled within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> to determine if the AXIAL POWER IMBALANCE is still within limits.

C.1 If any Required Action and associated Completion Time is not met or if both the absolute position indicator channel and relative position indicator channel are inoperable for one or more rods, the position of the rod(s) is not known with certainty. Therefore, each affected rod must be declared inoperable, and the limits of LCO 3.1.4 or LCO 3.1.6 apply. The required Completion Time for declaring the rod(s) inoperable is immediately.

Therefore LCO 3.1.4 or LCO 3.1.6 is entered immediately, and the required Completion Times for the appropriate Required Actions in those LCOs apply without delay.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.1.7.1 REQUIREMENTS Verification is required that the Absolute Position Indicator channels and Relative Position Indicator channels agree within the limit given in the COLR. This verification ensures that the Relative Position Indicator channels, which are regarded as the potentially less reliable means of position indication, remain OPERABLE and accurate.

Suspension of PHYSICS TESTS exceptions requires restoration of each of the applicable individual LCOs to within specification. This required Completion Time is consistent with, or more conservative than, those specified for the individual LCO, addressed by PHYSICS TESTS exceptions.

If the High Flux trip setpoint is not within the specified limits, then 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is allowed for the operator to restore the High Flux trip setpoint within limits or to complete an orderly suspension of PHYSICS TESTS exceptions. Suspension of PHYSICS TESTS exceptions requires restoration of each of the applicable individual LCOs to within specification. This required Completion Time is consistent with, or more conservative than, those specified for the individual LCO, addressed by these PHYSICS TESTS exceptions.

If the results of the incore flux map indicate that either FQ or F N H has exceeded its limit when THERMAL POWER is greater than 20% RTP, then PHYSICS TESTS are suspended. This action is required because of direct indication that the core peaking factors, which are fundamental initial conditions for the safety analysis, are excessive.

Suspension of PHYSICS TESTS exceptions requires restoration of each of the applicable individual LCOs to within specification. This required Completion Time is consistent with, or more conservative than, those specified for the individual LCOs addressed by PHYSICS TESTS exceptions.

The nuclear instrumentation high startup rate control rod withdrawal inhibit function is not required when the reactor power level is above the operating range of the instrumentation channel. For example, if the reactor power level is above the source range channel operating range, then only the intermediate range high startup rate control rod withdrawal inhibit is required to be functional.

A.2 Indefinite operation with the APSRs inserted or withdrawn in violation of the times specified in the COLR is not prudent. Even if power peaking monitoring per Required Action A.1 is continued, the abnormal APSR insertion or withdrawal may cause an adverse xenon redistribution, may cause the limits on AXIAL POWER IMBALANCE to be exceeded, or may affect the long term fuel depletion pattern. Therefore, power peaking monitoring is allowed for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This required Completion Time is reasonable based on the low probability of an event occurring simultaneously with the APSR limit out of specification. In addition, it precludes long term depletion with the APSRs in positions that have not been analyzed, thereby limiting the potential for an adverse xenon redistribution. This time limit also ensures that the intended burnup distribution is maintained, and allows the operator sufficient time to reposition the APSRs to correct their positions.

Because the APSRs are not operated by the automatic control system, manual action by the operator is required to restore the APSRs to the positions specified in the COLR.

B.1 If any Required Action and associated Completion Time is not met, the reactor must be placed in MODE 3, in which this LCO does not apply.

This action ensures that the fuel does not continue to be depleted in an unintended burnup distribution. The required Completion Time of 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is reasonable, based on operating experience regarding the time required to reach MODE 3 from RTP in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.2.2.1 REQUIREMENTS Fuel cycle designs that allow APSR withdrawal near EOC do not permit reinsertion of APSRs after the time of withdrawal.

SR 3.2.4.1 Checking the QPT indication every 7 days ensures that the operator can determine whether the plant computer software and Incore Detector System inputs for monitoring QPT are functioning properly and takes into account other information available to the operator in the control room.

This procedure allows the QPT mechanisms, such as xenon redistribution, burnup gradients, and CONTROL ROD drive mechanism malfunctions, which can cause slow development of a QPT, to be detected. Operating experience has confirmed the acceptability of a Surveillance Frequency of 7 days.

Insert 3 Following restoration of the QPT to within the steady state limit, operation at 95% RTP may proceed provided the QPT is determined to remain within the steady state limit at the increased THERMAL POWER level. In case QPT exceeds the steady state limit for more than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or exceeds the transient limit (Condition A or B), the potential for xenon redistribution is greater.

F.1, F.2, and G.1 (continued) values are normalized to the last UFM values used in the calorimetric heat balance calculation. The difference between UFM feedwater temperature measurements and feedwater resistance temperature detector measurements is within the margin allowance of the UFM temperature uncertainty and will have no effect on the heat balance uncertainty.

In addition, when operating with four reactor coolant pumps, the Reactor Protection System High Flux - High Setpoint Allowable Value must be reset to the value specified in Table 3.3.1-1 Note (e) within ten hours (Required Action F.1.2) or within 82 hours9.490741e-4 days <br />0.0228 hours <br />1.35582e-4 weeks <br />3.1201e-5 months <br /> since the last calorimetric heat balance based on UFM readings (Required Action F.2.3). This reduction ensures that when the increased uncertainty of the instrumentation is considered, the maximum analytical setpoint value of 110.2% RTP will not be exceeded as required by the safety analyses. Historical comparison of the two feedwater flow measurement systems used for secondary-side heat balance calculations above 50% RTP, UFM-based and feedwater venturi-based, indicates that the two methods do not diverge significantly during power operations over short periods of time.

The long-term fouling of the venturis results in a more conservative feedwater flow input to the heat balance calculation. Nuclear Instrumentation (NI) trend analysis indicates that the NI to heat balance comparison will not drift significantly over a three-week period, and surveillance data indicates essentially no drift of the RPS High Flux - High Setpoint trip setpoints. Accordingly, the accuracy and conservatism of the RPS High Flux -High Setpoint trip is acceptable during the completion times of Required Actions F.1.2 or F.2.3.

SURVEILLANCE The SRs for each RPS Function are identified by the SRs column of REQUIREMENTS Table 3.3.1-1 for that Function. Most Functions are subject to CHANNEL CHECK, CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST, CHANNEL CALIBRATION, and RPS RESPONSE TIME testing.

The SRs are modified by a Note. The Note directs the reader to Table 3.3.1-1 to determine the correct SRs to perform for each RPS Function.

SR 3.3.1.1 Performance of the CHANNEL CHECK once every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> ensures that a gross failure of instrumentation has not occurred. A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a Insert 3 Davis-Besse B 3.3.1-21 Revision 26 Revision TBD

SR 3.3.1.1 (continued) similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; therefore, it is key in verifying that the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including isolation, indication, and readability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the transmitter or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit. If the channels are within the criteria, it is an indication that the channels are OPERABLE. If the channels are normally off scale during times when surveillance is required, the CHANNEL CHECK will only verify that they are off scale in the same direction. Off scale low current loop channels are verified to be reading at the bottom of the range and not failed downscale.

The Frequency, 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, is based on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare. Since the probability of two random failures in redundant channels in any 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> period is extremely low, the CHANNEL CHECK minimizes the chance of loss of protective function due to failure of redundant channels. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal but more frequent checks of channel OPERABILITY during normal operational use of the displays associated with the LCO's required channels.

Insert 3 For Functions that trip on a combination of several measurements, such as the Flux - Flux - Flow, the CHANNEL CHECK must be performed on each input.

SR 3.3.1.2 This SR is the performance of a heat balance calibration for the power range channels every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> when reactor power is 15% RTP. The heat balance calibration consists of a comparison of the results of the calorimetric with the power range channel output. The outputs of the power range channels are normalized to the calorimetric. Note 1 to the SR clarifies that if the calorimetric heat balance calculation results exceed the Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS) channel output by > 2% RTP, the NIS is not declared inoperable but must be adjusted. If the NIS Davis-Besse B 3.3.1-22 Revision TBD Revision 26

SR 3.3.1.2 (continued) channel cannot be properly adjusted, the channel is declared inoperable.

Note 2 clarifies that this Surveillance is required only if reactor power is 15% RTP and that 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> is allowed for performing the first Surveillance after reaching 15% RTP. At lower power levels, calorimetric data are inaccurate.

The power range channel's output shall be adjusted consistent with the calorimetric results if the calorimetric heat balance calculation results exceed the power range channel's output by > 2% RTP. The value of 2%

is adequate because this value is assumed in the safety analyses of UFSAR, Chapter 15 (Ref. 8). These checks and, if necessary, the adjustment of the power range channels ensure that channel accuracy is maintained within the analyzed error margins. The 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> Frequency is adequate, based on unit operating experience, which demonstrates the change in the difference between the power range indication and the calorimetric results rarely exceeds a small fraction of 2% RTP in any 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> period. Furthermore, the control room operators monitor redundant indications and alarms to detect deviations in channel outputs.

SR 3.3.1.3 Insert 3 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument channel, including the sensor. The test verifies that the channel responds to the measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy.

CHANNEL CALIBRATION leaves the channel adjusted to account for instrument drift to ensure that the instrument channel remains operational between successive tests. CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall find that measurement errors and bistable setpoint errors are within the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint analysis. CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS must be performed consistent with the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint analysis. The Surveillance includes two Notes.

The first Note to the Surveillance indicates that neutron detectors are excluded from CHANNEL CALIBRATION. This Note is necessary because of the difficulty in generating an appropriate detector input signal. Excluding the detectors is acceptable because the principles of detector operation ensure a virtually instantaneous response. The second Note states that for Function 8, Flux - Flux - Flow, flow rate measurement sensors may be excluded from CHANNEL CALIBRATION for this SR. This is acceptable because these sensors are calibrated in accordance with SR 3.3.1.7 every 24 months.

The Frequency is justified by the assumption of a 92 day calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the Davis-Besse B 3.3.1-23 Revision TBD Revision 26

Insert 3 SR 3.3.1.3 for Function 1.a is modified by two Notes as identified in Table 3.3.1-1. Function 1.a is an LSSS for protection system instrument channels that protect reactor core or RCS pressure boundary Safety Limits. Some components (e.g., mechanical devices which have an on or off output or an open/close position such as limit switches, float switches, and proximity detectors) are not calibrated in the traditional sense and do not have as-left or as-found conditions that would indicate drift of the component setpoint. These devices are considered not trendable and the requirements of the Notes are not required to be applied to the mechanical portion of the functions. Where a non-trendable component provides signal input to other channel components that can be trended, the remaining components must be evaluated in accordance with the Notes. The first Note requires evaluation of channel performance for the condition where the as-found setting for the channel setpoint is outside its as-found tolerance but conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. For digital channel components, the as-found tolerance may be identical to the as-left tolerance since drift may not be an expected error. In these cases a channel as-found value outside the as-left condition may be cause for component assessment. Evaluation of instrument performance will verify that the instrument will continue to behave in accordance with design basis assumptions. The purpose of the assessment is to ensure confidence in the instrument performance prior to returning the instrument to service. These channels will also be identified in the Corrective Action Program. Entry into the Corrective Action Program will ensure required review and documentation of the condition for continued OPERABILITY. The second Note requires that the as-left setting for the instrument be returned to within the as-left tolerance around the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP), or a value that is more conservative than the LTSP. This will ensure that sufficient margin to the Safety Limit and/or Analytical Limit is maintained. If the as-left instrument setting cannot be returned to a setting within the as-left tolerance or a setting more conservative than the LTSP, then the instrument channel shall be declared inoperable. The second Note also requires that the LTSP and the methodology used to determine the LTSP, the predefined as-found acceptance band, and the as-left setpoint tolerance band are specified in the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) (Ref. 2).

Note 1 clarifies that if the absolute difference between the power range and incore measurements is 2.5%, the power range channel is not inoperable, but an adjustment of the measured imbalance to agree with the incore measurements is necessary. If the power range channel cannot be properly recalibrated, the channel is declared inoperable. The calculation of the Allowable Value envelope assumes a difference in out of core to incore measurements of 2.5%. Additional inaccuracies beyond those that are measured are also included in the setpoint envelope calculation. The 31 day Frequency is adequate, considering that long term drift of the excore linear amplifiers is small and burnup of the detectors is slow.

Also, the excore readings are a strong function of the power produced in the peripheral fuel bundles, and do not represent an integrated reading across the core. The slow changes in neutron flux during the fuel cycle can also be detected at this interval.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.1.5 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is performed on each required RPS channel to ensure that the entire channel will perform the intended function. A successful test of the required contact(s) of a channel relay may be performed by the verification of the change of state of a single contact of the relay. This clarifies what is an acceptable CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST of a relay. This is acceptable if all of the other required contacts of the relay are verified by other Technical Specifications and non-Technical Specifications tests at least once per refueling interval with applicable extensions. Setpoints must be found within the Allowable Values specified in Table 3.3.1-1. Any setpoint adjustment shall be consistent with the assumptions of the current unit specific setpoint analysis.

The as-found and as-left values were recorded and reviewed for consistency with the assumptions of the surveillance interval extension analysis (Ref. 9).

Individual component response times are not modeled in the analyses.

The analyses model the overall, or total, elapsed time from the point at which the parameter exceeds the analytical limit at the sensor to the point of rod insertion (CRD trip breakers open). Thus, this SR encompasses the reactor trip module components covered by LCO 3.3.3 and the operation of the mechanical components covered by LCO 3.3.4 (i.e., the CRD trip breakers). Response time testing acceptance criteria are included in Reference 2.

A Note to the Surveillance indicates that neutron detectors are excluded from RPS RESPONSE TIME testing. This Note is necessary because of the difficulty in generating an appropriate detector input signal. Excluding the detectors is acceptable because the principles of detector operation ensure a virtually instantaneous response. The response time of the neutron flux signal portion of the channel shall be measured from the neutron detector output or from the input of the first electronic components in the channel.

Response time tests are conducted on a 24 month STAGGERED TEST BASIS. Testing of the final actuation device (the CRD breakers) is included in the testing of each channel. Therefore, staggered testing results in response time verification of these devices every 96 months.

The 24 month Frequency is based on unit operating experience, which shows that random failures of instrumentation components causing serious response time degradation, but not channel failure, are infrequent occurrences.

Provided for Information Only SFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.5 BASES SURVEILLANCE The SRs for each SFAS instrumentation Parameter are identified by the REQUIREMENTS SRs column of Table 3.3.5-1 for that Parameter.

SR 3.3.5.1 Performance of the CHANNEL CHECK every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> ensures that a gross failure of instrumentation has not occurred. A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; therefore, it is key in verifying that the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including isolation, indication, and readability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the transmitter or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit.

The Frequency, 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, is based on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare. Since the probability of two random failures in redundant channels in any 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> period is extremely low, the CHANNEL CHECK minimizes the chance of loss of protective function due to failure of redundant channels. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal, but more frequent, checks of channel operability during normal operational use of the displays associated with the channels required by the LCO.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.5.2 The Surveillance is modified by a Note that states when an SFAS channel is placed in an inoperable status solely for performance of this Surveillance, entry into the associated Conditions and Required Actions may be delayed for up to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, provided two other channels of the same SFAS instrumentation Parameter are OPERABLE. Upon completion of the Surveillance, or expiration of the 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> allowance, the channel must be returned to OPERABLE status or the applicable Condition entered and Required Actions taken. This is acceptable since the other two required channels will continue to ensure the associated SFAS Parameter can perform its assumed function. This allowance is based on the inability to perform the Surveillance in the time permitted by the Required Actions. Eight hours is the average time required to perform Davis-Besse B 3.3.5-13 Revision 16 Revision TBD

Provided for Information Only SFAS Instrumentation B 3.3.5 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.3.5.2 (continued) the Surveillance. It is not acceptable to routinely remove channels from service for more than 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> to perform required Surveillance testing.

A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is performed on each required SFAS channel to ensure the entire channel will perform the intended functions.

A successful test of the required contact(s) of a channel relay may be performed by the verification of the change of state of a single contact of the relay. This clarifies what is an acceptable CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST of a relay. This is acceptable if all of the other required contacts of the relay are verified by other Technical Specifications and non-Technical Specifications tests at least once per refueling interval with applicable extensions. Any setpoint adjustment shall be consistent with the assumptions of the current unit specific setpoint analysis. The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST of the RCS Pressure - Low and - Low Low instrumentation includes the logic for the RCS pressure operating bypasses.

The Frequency of 31 days is based on unit operating experience, with regard to channel OPERABILITY and drift, which demonstrates that failure of more than one channel of a given function in any 31 day interval is a rare event.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.5.3 and SR 3.3.5.4 CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument channel, including the sensor. The test verifies that the channel responds to a measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy.

CHANNEL CALIBRATION leaves the channel adjusted to account for instrument drift to ensure that the instrument channel remains operational between successive tests. CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall find that measurement errors and bistable setpoint errors are within the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint analysis. CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS must be performed consistent with the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint analysis. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the RCS Pressure - Low and - Low Low instrumentation includes the RCS pressure operating bypass function.

This Frequency of SR 3.3.5.3 is justified by the assumption of an 18 month calibration interval to determine the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis. The Frequency of SR 3.3.5.4 is justified by the assumption of a 24 month calibration interval to determine the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis.

SR 3.3.5.5 SR 3.3.5.5 ensures that the SFAS actuation channel response times are less than or equal to the maximum times assumed in the accident analysis. The response time values are the maximum values assumed in the safety analyses. Individual component response times are not modeled in the analyses. The analyses model the overall or total elapsed time from the point at which the parameter exceeds the actuation setpoint value at the sensor to the point at which the end device is actuated.

Thus, this SR encompasses the automatic actuation logic components covered by LCO 3.3.7 and the operation of the mechanical ESF components. Response time testing acceptance criteria for this unit are included in Reference 8.

Response time tests are conducted on an 24 month STAGGERED TEST BASIS. Testing of the final actuation devices, which make up the bulk of the response time, is included in the testing of each channel. Therefore, staggered testing results in response time verification of these devices every 24 months. The 24 month test Frequency is based on unit operating experience, which shows that random failures of instrumentation components causing serious response time degradation but not channel failure are infrequent occurrences.

B.1 and B.2 If the Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition A is not met, the unit must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the unit must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required MODES from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.6.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR requires the performance of a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST of the SFAS manual initiation. This test verifies that the initiating circuitry is OPERABLE and will actuate the end device (i.e., pump, valves, etc.).

The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a unit outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. This Frequency is demonstrated to be sufficient, based on operating experience, which shows these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed on the 24 month Frequency.

Provided for Information Only SFAS Automatic Actuation Logic B 3.3.7 BASES ACTIONS A Note has been added to the ACTIONS indicating separate Condition entry is allowed for each SFAS automatic actuation output logic.

A.1, A.2, and A.3 When one or more automatic actuation output logics are inoperable, either the output logic may be tripped or the associated component(s) can be placed in its engineered safety features configuration. Required Action A.1 places the associated output logic in its actuated condition while Required Action A.2 is equivalent to the automatic actuation output logic performing its safety function ahead of time. In some cases, placing the component in its engineered safety features configuration would violate unit safety or operational considerations. In these cases, the component status should not be changed, but the supported system component must be declared inoperable. Conditions which would preclude the placing of a component in its engineered safety features configuration include, but are not limited to, violation of system separation, activation of fluid systems that could lead to thermal shock, or isolation of fluid systems that are normally functioning. The Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is based on operating experience and reflects the urgency associated with the inoperability of a safety system component.

Required Action A.3 requires entry into the Required Actions of the affected supported systems, since the true effect of automatic actuation logic failure is inoperability of the supported system. The Completion Time of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> is based on operating experience and reflects the urgency associated with the inoperability of a safety system component.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.7.1 REQUIREMENTS SR 3.3.7.1 is the performance of a CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST on a 31 day STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The test demonstrates that every automatic actuation logic associated with one of the two safety actuation trains successfully performs the two-out-of-four logic combinations every 31 days. All automatic actuation logics are thus retested every 62 days.

The test simulates the required one-out-of-four inputs to the logic circuit and verifies the successful operation of the automatic actuation logic.

The Frequency is based on operating experience that demonstrates the rarity of more than one channel failing within the same 31 day interval.

SR 3.3.8.1 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is performed on each required EDG LOPS channel to ensure the entire channel will perform the intended function. A successful test of the required contact(s) of a channel relay may be performed by the verification of the change of state of a single contact of the relay. This clarifies what is an acceptable CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST of a relay. This is acceptable if all of the other required contacts of the relay are verified by other Technical Specifications and non-Technical Specifications tests at least once per refueling interval with applicable extensions. Any setpoint adjustments shall be consistent with the assumptions of the current unit specific setpoint calculations. As Noted, the as-left instrument setting shall be returned to a setting within the tolerance band of the trip setpoint established to protect the safety limit. The Frequency of 31 days is considered reasonable based on the reliability of the components and on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.8.2 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument channel, including the sensor. The setpoints and the response to a loss of voltage and a degraded voltage test shall include a single point verification that the trip occurs within the required delay time. CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall find that measurement setpoint errors are within the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint calculations. As Noted, the as-left instrument setting shall be returned to a setting within the tolerance band of the trip setpoint established to protect the safety limit.

The Frequency is based on operating experience and is justified by the assumption of a 12 month calibration interval in the determination of equipment drift in the setpoint calculation.

SR 3.3.11.2 for Functions 1, 2, and 3 are modified by two Notes as identified in Table 3.3.11-1. These Functions are an LSSS for protection system instrument channels that protect reactor core or RCS pressure boundary Safety Limits. The first Note requires evaluation of channel performance for the condition where the as-found setting for the channel setpoint is outside its as-found tolerance but conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. For digital channel components, the as-found tolerance may be identical to the as-left tolerance since drift may not be an expected error. In these cases, a channel as-found value outside the as-left condition may be cause for component assessment. Evaluation of instrument performance will verify that the instrument will continue to behave in accordance with design basis assumptions. The purpose of the assessment is to ensure confidence in the instrument performance prior to returning the instrument to service. These channels will also be identified in the Corrective Action Program. Entry into the Corrective Action Program will ensure required review and documentation of the condition for continued OPERABILITY. The second Note requires that the as-left setting for the instrument be returned to within the as-left tolerance around the Limiting Trip Setting (LTSP), or a value that is more conservative than the LTSP. This will ensure that sufficient margin to the Safety Limit and/or Analytical Limit is maintained. If the as-left instrument setting cannot be returned to a setting within the as-left tolerance or a setting more conservative than the LTSP, then the instrument channel shall be declared inoperable. The second Note also requires that the LTSP and the methodology used to determine the LTSP, the predefined as-found acceptance criteria band, and the as-left setpoint tolerance band are specified in the TRM (Ref. 6).

SR 3.3.11.3 and SR 3.3.11.4 CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument channel including the sensor. The test verifies the channel responds to a measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy.

CHANNEL CALIBRATION leaves the channels adjusted to account for instrument drift to ensure that the instrument channel remains operational between successive tests. CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall find that measurement errors and bistable setpoint errors are within the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint analysis. CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS must be performed consistent with the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint analysis. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the Main Steam Line Pressure - Low instrumentation includes the main steam line pressure shutdown bypass function.

The Frequency for SR 3.3.11.3 is based on the assumption of an 18 month calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis. The Frequency for SR 3.3.11.4 is based on the assumption of a 24 month calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis.

SR 3.3.11.3 for Functions 1 and 2 and SR 3.3.11.4 for Function 3 are modified by two Notes as identified in Table 3.3.11-1. These Functions are an LSSS for protection system instrument channels that protect Insert 4 reactor core or RCS pressure boundary Safety Limits. The first Note requires evaluation of channel performance for the condition where the as-found setting for the channel setpoint is outside its as-found tolerance but conservative with respect to the Allowable Value.

SR 3.3.11.5 This SR verifies individual channel actuation response times are less than or equal to the maximum value assumed in the accident analysis.

Individual component response times are not modeled in the analysis.

The analysis models the overall or total elapsed time, from the point at which the parameter exceeds the actuation setpoint value at the sensor, to the point at which the end device is actuated. Thus, this SR Davis-Besse B 3.3.11-14 Revision 18 Revision TBD

Provided for Information Only SFRCS Instrumentation B 3.3.11 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.3.11.5 (continued) encompasses the automatic actuation logic components covered by LCO 3.3.13, "Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS)

Actuation," and the operation of the mechanical components (i.e.,

auxiliary feedwater pumps, main steam isolation valves, main feedwater valves, and turbine stop valves). Response time testing acceptance criteria are included in the TRM (Ref. 6).

SFRCS RESPONSE TIME tests are conducted on a 24 month STAGGERED TEST BASIS. SFRCS RESPONSE TIME testing includes the AFW pumps for Functions 1, 2, 3, and 4, the MSIVs for Functions 1 and 2, the main feedwater isolation valves (MFCVs, SFCVs, and MFSVs) for Functions 1 and 2, and the TSVs for Function 1. Testing of the final actuation devices, which make up the bulk of the SFRCS RESPONSE TIME, is included in the testing of each channel. Therefore, staggered testing results in response time verification of these devices every 24 months. A Note requires STAGGERED TEST BASIS Frequency to be determined based on two channels per Function, in lieu of the eight total channels per Function for Functions 1, 2, and 3 and the four total channels for Function 4 specified in Table 3.3.11-1. This Frequency is based on the logic interrelationships of the various channels required to produce an SFRCS actuation. The two channels identified in the Note correspond to the two SFRCS actuation channels for each Function. The 24 month test Frequency is based on unit operating experience, which shows that random failures of instrumentation components causing serious response time degradation, but not channel failure, are infrequent occurrences.

This test verifies MFW and Main Steam Line Isolation; AFW Initiation; and Auxiliary Feedwater and Main Steam Valve Control are functional. A successful test of the required contact(s) of a channel relay may be performed by the verification of the change of state of a single contact of the relay. This clarifies what is an acceptable CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST of a relay.

This is acceptable if all of the other required contacts of the relay are verified by other Technical Specifications and non-Technical Specifications tests at least once per refueling interval with applicable extensions. This test simulates the required inputs to the logic circuit and verifies successful operation of the automatic actuation logic. The test need not include actuation of the end device. This is due to the risk of a unit transient caused by the closure of valves associated with MFW and Main Steam Line Isolation or actuation of AFW during testing at power.

The Frequency of 31 days is based on operating experience, which has demonstrated the rarity of more than one channel failing within the same 31 day interval.

Provided for Information Only Fuel Handling Exhaust - High Radiation B 3.3.14 BASES APPLICABILITY Two Fuel Handling Exhaust - High Radiation channels are required to be OPERABLE during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool building to ensure radiation doses are within the limits of the accident analyses.

ACTIONS LCO 3.0.3 is not applicable while in MODE 5 or 6. However, since irradiated fuel assembly movement can occur in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4, the ACTIONS have been modified by a Note stating that LCO 3.0.3 is not applicable. If moving irradiated fuel assemblies while in MODE 5 or 6, LCO 3.0.3 would not specify any action. If moving irradiated fuel assemblies while in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4, the fuel movement is independent of reactor operations. Entering LCO 3.0.3, while in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4 would require the unit to be shutdown unnecessarily.

A.1 Condition A applies when one or more channel(s) are inoperable. These radiation monitors are required to be OPERABLE in support of LCO 3.7.13, "Spent Fuel Pool Area Emergency Ventilation System (EVS)." If Condition A applies, LCO 3.7.13 Conditions and Required Actions must immediately be applied.

A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; therefore, it is key in verifying that the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including isolation, indication, and readability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the detector or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit. If the channels are normally off scale during times when surveillance is required, the CHANNEL CHECK will only verify that they are off scale in the same direction.

CHANNEL CHECK minimizes the chance of loss of protective function due to failure of redundant channels. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal, but more frequent, checks of channel operability during normal operational use of the displays associated with the LCO's required channels.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.14.2 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is performed on each required Fuel Handling Exhaust - High Radiation channel to ensure the entire channel will perform the intended function.

The Frequency of 31 days is based on unit operating experience, with regard to channel OPERABILITY and drift, which demonstrates that failure of more than one channel of a given function in any 31 day interval is a rare event.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.14.3 CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument channel, including the sensor. The test verifies the channel responds to a measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy.

CHANNEL CALIBRATION leaves the channel adjusted to a setpoint specified in the Radiation Monitoring Setpoint Manual, which is significantly less than the required Trip Setpoint. This combined with the specified equipment tolerance ensures that the channel remains operational between successive tests. CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS must be performed consistent with the unit specific setpoint and tolerance.

This 18 month Frequency is based on operating experience.

A Note clarifies that the neutron detectors are not required to be tested as part of the CHANNEL CALIBRATION. There is no adjustment that can be made to the detectors. Furthermore, adjustment of the detectors is unnecessary because they are passive devices, with minimal drift.

Whenever a sensing element is replaced, the next required CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the Incore Thermocouple sensors is accomplished by an inplace cross calibration that compares the other sensing elements with the recently installed sensing element.

The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.

C.1 Required Action C.1 specifies immediate initiation of action described in Specification 5.6.7, "Remote Shutdown System Report," which requires a written report to be submitted to the NRC. This report discusses the evaluation into the cause of the inoperability and identifies proposed restorative actions. This action is appropriate in lieu of a shutdown requirement since the control circuits and transfer switches are related to meeting 10 CFR 50, Appendix R requirements. The Completion Time of "Immediately" ensures the requirements of Specification 5.6.7 are initiated.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3.18.1 REQUIREMENTS Performance of the CHANNEL CHECK once every 31 days for each required instrumentation channel that is normally energized ensures that a gross failure of instrumentation has not occurred. A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value.

Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; therefore, it is key in verifying that the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION.

Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including indication and readability. If the channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the sensor or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit. If the channels are within the criteria, it is an indication that the channels are OPERABLE. As specified in the Surveillance, a CHANNEL CHECK is only required for those channels that are normally energized. If the channels are normally off scale during times when surveillance is required, the CHANNEL CHECK will only verify that they Davis-Besse B 3.3.18-4 Revision 23 Revision TBD

Provided for Information Only Remote Shutdown System B 3.3.18 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.3.18.1 (continued) are off scale in the same direction. Off scale low current loop channels are verified to be reading at the bottom of the range and not failed downscale.

The Frequency is based on unit operating experience, which demonstrates that channel failure is rare.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.18.2 CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument loop and sensor. The test verifies that the channel responds to measured parameters within the necessary range and accuracy.

Whenever a resistance temperature detector (RTD) is replaced, the next required CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the RTD sensor is accomplished by an inplace cross calibration that compares the other sensing elements with the recently installed sensing element.

The Frequency is based on operating experience and consistency with the typical industry refueling cycle and is justified by the assumption of a 24 month calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift.

Insert 3 SR 3.3.18.3 SR 3.3.18.3 verifies each control circuit and transfer switch required for a serious control room fire or cable spreading room fire performs their intended function. This verification is performed from the remote shutdown panel and locally, as appropriate. Operation of the equipment from the remote shutdown panel or remotely is not necessary. The Surveillance can be satisfied by performance of a continuity check. This will ensure that if a serious control room or cable spreading room fire occurs, the requirement of the Fire Protection Program can be met. The 24 month frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a unit outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience demonstrates that these control circuits and transfer switches seldom fail to pass the Surveillance when performed at the 24 month Frequency.

SR 3.4.1.4 Measurement of RCS total flow rate by performance of a precision calorimetric heat balance once every 18 months allows the installed RCS flow instrumentation to be calibrated and verifies that the actual RCS flow is greater than or equal to the minimum required RCS flow rate. These minimum required measured flows include a flow rate uncertainty of 2.5%

The Frequency of 18 months is considered adequate for ensuring accurate RCS flow measurement instrumentation and has been shown by operating experience to be acceptable.

The Note is necessary to allow measurement of the flow rate at normal operating conditions at power in MODE 1. The Surveillance cannot be performed at low power or in MODE 2 or below because at low power the T across the core will be too small to provide valid results.

C.1 and C.2 If the Required Action and associated Completion Time cannot be met, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the requirement does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> allowed is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 3 from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.11.1 REQUIREMENTS Block valve cycling verifies that it can be closed if needed. The basis for the Frequency of 92 days is the ASME Code (Ref. 4). Block valve cycling, as stated in the Note, is not required to be performed when it is closed for isolation; cycling could increase the hazard of an existing degraded flow path.

Insert 3 SR 3.4.11.2 PORV cycling demonstrates its function. Any combination of indications (e.g., acoustic, system response) may be used to confirm a complete cycle of the PORV. The Frequency of 24 months is based on a typical refueling cycle and industry accepted practice.

This verification is performed by checking RCS to DHR System isolation valves in the open position with control power removed from the valve operator. This Surveillance ensures the overpressure relief flow path is aligned and remains aligned. Removal of control power ensures the flow path is not inadvertently closed.

The Frequency is adequate based on operating experience.

Manual operation is required to close the isolation valves or energize control power. Valve operations are administratively controlled by procedure. In this configuration the isolation valves will not inadvertently close.

Insert 3 SR 3.4.12.2 Verification of the DHR System relief valve lift setpoint must be performed to ensure LTOP requirements can be met.

Overpressure protection of the RCS is ensured by the DHR System relief valve, which relieves pressure and prevents the RCS from exceeding the Pressure/Temperature Limits.

The DHR System relief valve setpoint is verified in accordance with the INSERVICE TESTING PROGRAM for proper operation and correct lift setting of 330 psig. This lift setting pressure shall correspond to ambient conditions of the valve at nominal operating temperature and pressure.

No Change - Provided for RCS Operational LEAKAGE Information Only B 3.4.13 BASES APPLICABILITY (continued)

LCO 3.4.14, "RCS Pressure Isolation Valve (PIV) Leakage," measures leakage through each individual PIV and can impact this LCO. Of the two PIVs in series in each isolated line, leakage measured through one PIV does not result in RCS LEAKAGE when the other is leaktight. If both valves leak and result in a loss of mass from the RCS, the loss must be included in the allowable identified LEAKAGE.

ACTIONS A.1 If unidentified LEAKAGE or identified LEAKAGE are in excess of the LCO limits, the LEAKAGE must be reduced to within limits within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. This Completion Time allows time to verify leakage rates and either identify unidentified LEAKAGE or reduce LEAKAGE to within limits before the reactor must be shut down. This action is necessary to prevent further deterioration of the RCPB.

B.1 and B.2 If any pressure boundary LEAKAGE exists or primary to secondary LEAKAGE is not within limit, or if unidentified or identified LEAKAGE cannot be reduced to within limits within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, the reactor must be brought to lower pressure conditions to reduce the severity of the LEAKAGE and its potential consequences. The reactor must be brought to MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. This action reduces the LEAKAGE and also reduces the factors that tend to degrade the pressure boundary.

The Completion Times allowed are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems. In MODE 5, the pressure stresses acting on the RCPB are much lower and further deterioration is much less likely.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.13.1 REQUIREMENTS Verifying RCS LEAKAGE within the LCO limits ensures that the integrity of the RCPB is maintained. Pressure boundary LEAKAGE would at first appear as unidentified LEAKAGE and can only be positively identified by inspection. Unidentified LEAKAGE and identified LEAKAGE are determined by performance of an RCS water inventory balance.

The RCS water inventory balance must be performed with the reactor at steady state operating conditions (stable temperature, power level, and pressurizer level). The accuracy of the results will be impacted if any Davis-Besse B 3.4.13-4 Revision 0

Provided for Information Only RCS Operational LEAKAGE B 3.4.13 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.4.13.1 (continued) measured parameter used to calculate the RCS LEAKAGE is not in a steady state condition.

The Surveillance is modified by two Notes. Note 1 states that this SR is not required to be performed until 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> after establishing steady state operation. The 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> allowance provides sufficient time to collect and process all necessary data after stable plant conditions are established.

An early warning of pressure boundary LEAKAGE or unidentified LEAKAGE is provided by the automatic systems that monitor the containment atmosphere radioactivity and the containment sump level.

These leakage detection systems are specified in LCO 3.4.15, "RCS Leakage Detection Instrumentation."

Note 2 states that this SR is not applicable to primary to secondary LEAKAGE because LEAKAGE of 150 gallons per day cannot be measured accurately by an RCS water inventory balance.

The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Frequency is a reasonable interval to trend LEAKAGE and recognizes the importance of early leakage detection in the prevention of accidents.

Insert 3 SR 3.4.13.2 This SR verifies that primary to secondary LEAKAGE is less than or equal to 150 gallons per day through any one SG. Satisfying the primary to secondary LEAKAGE limit ensures that the operational LEAKAGE performance criterion in the Steam Generator Program is met. If this SR is not met, compliance with LCO 3.4.17, "Steam Generator Tube Integrity," should be evaluated. The 150 gallons per day limit is measured at room temperature as described in Reference 5. The operational LEAKAGE rate limit applies to LEAKAGE through any one SG. If it is not practical to assign the LEAKAGE to an individual SG, all the primary to secondary LEAKAGE should be conservatively assumed to be from one SG.

The Surveillance is modified by a Note which states that the Surveillance is not required to be performed until 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> after establishment of steady state operation. For RCS primary to secondary LEAKAGE determination, steady state is defined as stable power level (+ 1%).

No Change - Provided for RCS PIV Leakage Information Only B 3.4.14 BASES ACTIONS A.1 and A.2 (continued)

Required Action A.2 specifies that the double isolation barrier of two valves be restored by closing some other valve qualified for isolation or restoring one leaking PIV. The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> time after exceeding the limit considers the time required to complete the Action and the low probability of a second valve failing during this time period.

B.1 and B.2 If leakage cannot be reduced, the system isolated, or other Required Actions accomplished, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the requirement does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. This Required Action may reduce the leakage and also reduces the potential for a LOCA outside the containment. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

C.1 and C.2 The inoperability of the DHR System interlock function renders the DHR suction isolation valves incapable of isolating in response to a high pressure condition and preventing inadvertent opening of the valves at RCS pressures in excess of the DHR systems design pressure. If the DHR interlock is inoperable, operation may continue as long as the DHR suction line is isolated by two closed and deactivated automatic valves within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. This action accomplishes the purpose of the interlock function.

Alternately, if the RCS pressure is < 328 psig, isolating the associated DHR penetration is not required. In this case, the DHR System interlock function must be restored to OPERABLE status prior to increasing RCS pressure > 328 psig. Since RCS pressure is below the setpoint, there is no need to isolate the associated penetration.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.14.1 REQUIREMENTS SR 3.4.14.1 is the performance of the CHANNEL CHECK of the decay heat isolation valve interlock channel that is common to the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) instrumentation. The check provides Davis-Besse B 3.4.14-4 Revision 25

Provided for Information Only RCS PIV Leakage B 3.4.14 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.4.14.1 (continued) reasonable confidence that the channel is operating properly. The Frequency of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> is based on instrument reliability and is reasonable for detecting off normal conditions.

Insert 3 SR 3.4.14.2 Performance of leakage testing on each RCS PIV or isolation valve used to satisfy Required Action A.1 or A.2 is required to verify that leakage is below the specified limit and to identify each leaking valve. The RCS PIV leakage limit is 5.0 gpm. However, RCS PIV leakage is also limited when the current measured rate is > 1.0 gpm, such that the current measured rate shall not exceed the rate determined by the previous test by an amount that reduces the margin between measured leakage rate and 5.0 gpm by 50%. Leakage testing requires a stable pressure condition. Valves CF-30 and CF-31 will be tested with the RCS pressure

> 1200 psig and valves DH-76 and DH-77 will be tested at > 575 psig (i.e., the normal core flooding tank pressure). Minimum differential test pressure across each valve shall be > 150 psid. Additionally, to satisfy ALARA requirements, leakage may be measured indirectly (as from the performance of pressure indicators) if accomplished in accordance with approved procedures and supported by computations showing that the method is capable of demonstrating valve compliance with the leakage criteria.

For the two PIVs in series, the leakage requirement applies to each valve individually and not to the combined leakage across both valves. If the PIVs are not individually leakage tested, one valve may have failed completely and not detected if the other valve in series meets the leakage requirement. In this situation, the protection provided by redundant valves would be lost.

Testing is to be performed every 24 months, a typical refueling cycle, if the plant does not go into MODE 5 for at least 7 days. The 24 month Frequency is consistent with 10 CFR 50.55a(g) (Ref. 8) as contained in the INSERVICE TESTING PROGRAM, is within frequency allowed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code (Ref. 7), and is based on the need to perform such surveillances under conditions that apply during an outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the plant at power.

Insert 3 The leakage limit is to be performed at the RCS pressure associated with MODES 1 and 2. This permits leakage testing at high differential pressures with stable conditions not possible in the MODES with lower Davis-Besse B 3.4.14-5 RevisionTBD Revision 25

Provided for Information Only RCS PIV Leakage B 3.4.14 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.4.14.2 (continued) pressures. Entry into MODES 3 and 4 is allowed to establish the necessary differential pressures and stable conditions to allow for performance of this Surveillance. The Note that allows this provision is complimentary to the Frequency of prior to entry into MODE 2 whenever the unit has been in MODE 5 for 7 days or more, if leakage testing has not been performed in the previous 9 months.

SR 3.4.14.3 and SR 3.4.14.4 Verifying that the DHR interlocks are OPERABLE ensures that RCS pressure will not pressurize the DHR system beyond 430 psig, the pressure at which this section of DHR piping was tested. The interlock setpoint that prevents the valves from being opened is set so the actual RCS pressure must be < 328 psig at the RCS pressure instrumentation tap to open the valves. This setpoint allows DH-11 and DH-12 to be opened by the operator prior to the point where net positive suction pressure is lost to the reactor coolant pumps. The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance was performed with the reactor at power. The 24 month Frequency is also acceptable based on consideration of the design reliability (and confirming operating experience) of the equipment.

Insert 4 These SRs are modified by Notes allowing the DHR System interlock function to be disabled when using the DHR System suction relief valve for cold overpressure protection in accordance with LCO 3.4.12. This allowance is necessary since opening and removing control power to the DHR System isolation valves (as required by LCO 3.4.12) disables the interlock.

SR 3.4.14.5 SR 3.4.14.5 requires the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the DHR System interlock channels (both the channel common to SFAS instrumentation and the channel not common to SFAS instrumentation).

The calibration verifies the accuracy of the instrument string. The Frequency of 24 months is a typical refueling cycle and considers channel reliability. Operating experience has proven this Frequency is acceptable.

The Required Action provides 7 days to restore another RCS leakage monitor to OPERABLE status to regain the intended leakage detection diversity.

The 7 day Completion Time ensures that the plant will not be operated in a degraded configuration for a lengthy time period.

D.1 and D.2 If a Required Action of Condition A, B, or C cannot be met within the required Completion Time, the unit must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply.

The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

E.1 With both required monitors inoperable, no automatic means of monitoring leakage are available, and immediate plant shutdown in accordance with LCO 3.0.3 is required.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.15.1 REQUIREMENTS SR 3.4.15.1 requires the performance of a CHANNEL CHECK of the required containment atmosphere radioactivity monitor.

A Note permits the use of the provisions of LCO 3.0.4.c. This allowance permits entry into the applicable MODE(S) while relying on the ACTIONS.

This allowance is acceptable due to the significant conservatism incorporated into the specific activity limit, the low probability of an event which is limiting due to exceeding this limit, and the ability to restore transient specific activity excursions while the plant remains at, or proceeds to power operation.

B.1 If a Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition A are not met, if the DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 is in the unacceptable region of Figure 3.4.16-1, or if the gross specific activity is not within limit, the reactor must be brought to MODE 3 with RCS average temperature

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.16.1 REQUIREMENTS SR 3.4.16.1 requires performing a gamma isotopic analysis as a measure of the gross specific activity of the reactor coolant at least once per 7 days. While basically a quantitative measure of radionuclides with half lives longer than 15 minutes, excluding iodines, this measurement is the sum of the degassed gamma activities and the gaseous gamma activities in the sample taken. This Surveillance provides an indication of any increase in gross specific activity.

Trending the results of this Surveillance allows proper remedial action to be taken before reaching the LCO limit under normal operating conditions. The Surveillance is applicable in MODES 1 and 2, and in MODE 3 with RCS average temperature at least 530°F. The 7 day Frequency considers the unlikelihood of a gross fuel failure during that time period.

SR 3.4.16.2 This Surveillance requires the verification that the reactor coolant DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 specific activity is within limit. This Surveillance is accomplished by performing an isotopic analysis of a reactor coolant sample. This Surveillance is performed in MODE 1 only to ensure the iodine remains within limit during normal operation and following fast power changes when fuel failure is more apt to occur. The 14 day Frequency is adequate to trend changes in the iodine activity level considering gross specific activity is monitored every 7 days.

SR 3.4.16.3 SR 3.4.16.3 requires radiochemical analysis for determination every 184 days with the plant operating in MODE 1 equilibrium conditions. The determination directly relates to the LCO and is required to verify plant operation within the specific gross activity LCO limit. The analysis for is a measurement of the average energies per disintegration for isotopes with half lives longer than 15 minutes, excluding iodines. The Frequency of 184 days recognizes does not change rapidly.

Operating experience has shown that this Frequency is appropriate for early detection and correction of off normal trends.

Insert 4 SR 3.5.1.4 Surveillance once every 31 days is reasonable to verify that the CFT boron concentration is within the required limits, because the static design of the CFT limits the ways in which the concentration can be changed.

It is not necessary to verify boron concentration if the added water inventory is from the borated water storage tank (BWST),

because the water contained in the BWST is within CFT boron concentration requirements. This is consistent with the recommendations of NUREG-1366 (Ref. 3).

SR 3.5.1.5 Verification every 31 days that power is removed from each CFT isolation valve operator (by locking the breaker in the open position) ensures that an active failure could not result in the undetected closure of a CFT motor operated isolation valve coincident with a LOCA. If this closure were to occur and the postulated LOCA is a rupture of the redundant CFT inlet piping, CFT capability would be rendered inoperable. The rupture would render the tank with the open valve inoperable, and a closed valve on the other CFT would likewise render it inoperable. This would cause a loss of function for the CFTs. Since power is removed under administrative control, the 31 day Frequency will provide adequate assurance that the power is removed.

C.1 and C.2 If the inoperable components cannot be returned to OPERABLE status within the associated Completion Time, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and at least MODE 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

D.1 Condition B is applicable with one or more trains inoperable. The allowed Completion Time is based on the assumption that at least 100% of the ECCS flow equivalent to a single OPERABLE ECCS train is available.

With less than 100% of the ECCS flow equivalent to a single OPERABLE ECCS train available, the facility is in a condition outside of the accident analyses. Therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered immediately.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.5.2.1 REQUIREMENTS Verifying the correct alignment for manual, power operated, and automatic valves in the ECCS flow paths provides assurance that the proper flow paths will exist for ECCS operation. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since these valves were verified to be in the correct position prior to locking, sealing, or securing. A valve that receives an actuation signal is allowed to be in a nonaccident position provided the valve will automatically reposition within the proper stroke time. This Surveillance does not require any testing or valve manipulation; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of being mispositioned are in the correct position. The 31 day Frequency is appropriate because the valves are operated under administrative control, and an inoperable valve position would only affect a single train. This Frequency has been shown to be acceptable through operating experience.

Insert 3 SR 3.5.2.2 Periodic surveillance testing of ECCS pumps to detect gross degradation caused by impeller structural damage or other hydraulic component problems is required by the ASME Code (Ref. 5). This type of testing may be accomplished by measuring the pump's developed head at only one point of the pump's characteristic curve. This verifies both that the Davis-Besse B 3.5.2-6 RevisionTBD Revision 25

Provided for Information Only ECCS - Operating B 3.5.2 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.5.2.2 (continued) measured performance is within an acceptable tolerance of the original pump baseline performance and that the performance at the test flow is greater than or equal to the performance assumed in the plant accident analysis. SRs are specified in the Inservice Testing Program of the ASME Code. The ASME Code provides the activities and Frequencies necessary to satisfy the requirements.

SR 3.5.2.3 With the exception of systems in operation, the ECCS pumps are normally in a standby, nonoperating mode. As such, the flow path piping has the potential to develop voids and pockets of entrained gases. This SR requires maintaining the piping from the ECCS pumps to the RCS full of water, by venting the ECCS pump casings and discharge piping high points, to ensure that the system will perform properly, injecting its full capacity into the RCS upon demand. This will also prevent water hammer, pump cavitation, and pumping of noncondensible gas (e.g., air, nitrogen, or hydrogen) into the reactor vessel following an SFAS signal or during shutdown cooling. The 24 month Frequency takes into consideration the gradual nature of gas accumulation in the ECCS piping, the existence of procedural controls governing system operation, and the fact that some venting point are not accessible during normal operation.

The second Frequency is required to ensure the ECCS subsystem is refilled after draining prior to declaring the ECCS subsystem OPERABLE.

Insert 3 SR 3.5.2.4 and SR 3.5.2.5 These SRs demonstrate that each automatic ECCS valve actuates to the required position on an actual or simulated SFAS signal and that each ECCS pump starts on receipt of an actual or simulated SFAS signal. This SR is not required for valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position under administrative controls. The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. The 24 month Frequency is also acceptable based on consideration of the design reliability (and confirming operating experience) of the equipment. The actuation logic is tested as part of the SFAS testing, and equipment performance is monitored as part of the INSERVICE TESTING PROGRAM.

SR 3.5.2.6 This Surveillance verifies the position of each mechanical stop for valves DH-14A and DH-14B is correct to ensure that proper ECCS flows will be maintained in the event of a LOCA. Maintenance of proper flow resistance and pressure drop in the piping system to each injection point is necessary to prevent total pump flow from exceeding runout conditions when the system is in its minimum resistance configuration, provide the proper flow split between injection points in accordance with the assumptions used in the LOCA analyses, and provide an acceptable level of total ECCS flow to all injection points equal to or above that assumed in the LOCA analyses. The 24 month Frequency is justified by the same reasons as those stated for SR 3.5.2.4 and SR 3.5.2.5.

SR 3.5.2.7 Insert 3 Periodic inspections of the containment sump suction inlet ensure that it is unrestricted and stays in proper operating condition. In addition, the screen components include the vertical strainers. The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage, on the need to preserve access to the location, and on the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. This Frequency has been found to be sufficient to detect abnormal degradation and has been confirmed by operating experience.

SR 3.5.2.8 Insert 3 This Surveillance verifies that the BWST outlet valve (HV-DH7A and HV-DH7B) automatically closes after the operator manually pushes the control switch to open the containment emergency sump valve (HV-DH9A and HV-DH9B), and the containment emergency sump valve opens, following receipt of a Borated Water Storage Tank Level - Low Low signal (i.e., Table 3.3.5-1, Function 5). This SR also verifies each valve's closure or opening time, as applicable, is < 75 seconds. The closure and opening times are measured from when the operator pushes the control switch for the associated containment emergency sump valve until the valve is either fully open or closed, as applicable. The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage.

The 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> Frequency is sufficient to identify a temperature change that would approach either temperature limit and has been shown to be acceptable through operating experience.

The SR is modified by a Note that requires the Surveillance to be Insert 3 performed only when ambient air temperatures are outside the operating temperature limits of the BWST. With ambient temperatures within this band, the BWST temperature should not exceed the limits.

SR 3.5.4.2 Verification every 7 days that the BWST available volume is within the required range ensures that a sufficient initial supply is available for injection and to support continued ECCS pump operation on recirculation.

The limits on water volume reflect the available volume since a portion of the contained volume of the BWST is not available because of the tank discharge configuration. Since the BWST volume is normally stable and provided with a low level alarm, a 7 day Frequency has been shown to be appropriate through operating experience.

Insert 3 SR 3.5.4.3 Verification every 7 days that the boron concentration of the BWST fluid is within the required band ensures that the reactor will remain subcritical following a LOCA.

Provided for Information Only Containment Air Locks B 3.6.2 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.6.2.1 (continued) air lock leakage does not exceed the allowed fraction of the overall containment leakage rate. The Frequency is required by the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program.

The SR has been modified by two Notes. Note 1 states that an inoperable air lock door does not invalidate the previous successful performance of the overall air lock leakage test. This is considered reasonable, since either air lock door is capable of providing a fission product barrier in the event of a DBA. Note 2 has been added to this SR requiring the results to be evaluated against the acceptance criteria which is applicable to SR 3.6.1.1. This ensures that air lock leakage is properly accounted for in determining the combined Type B and C containment leakage rate.

SR 3.6.2.2 The air lock interlock is designed to prevent simultaneous opening of both doors in a single air lock. Since both the inner and outer doors of an air lock are designed to withstand the maximum expected post accident containment pressure, closure of either door will support containment OPERABILITY. Thus, the door interlock feature supports containment OPERABILITY while the air lock is being used for personnel transit in and out of the containment. Periodic testing of this interlock demonstrates that the interlock will function as designed and that simultaneous opening of the inner and outer doors will not inadvertently occur. Due to the purely mechanical nature of this interlock, and given that the interlock mechanism is not normally challenged when the containment air lock door is used for entry and exit (procedures require strict adherence to single door opening), this test is only required to be performed every 24 months. The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage, and the potential for loss of containment OPERABILITY if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience has shown these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed at the 24 month Frequency. The 24 month Frequency is based on engineering judgment and is considered adequate given that the interlock is not challenged during the use of the air lock.

When a penetration is isolated the leakage rate for the isolated penetration is assumed to be the actual pathway leakage through the isolation device.

F.1 and F.2 If the Required Actions and associated Completion Times are not met, the plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply.

To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.6.3.1 REQUIREMENTS Each 48 inch containment purge and exhaust valve is required to be This SR requires e verified closed with control power removed at 31 day intervals. This Surveillance is designed to ensure that a gross breach of containment is periodically not caused by an inadvertent or spurious opening of a containment purge or exhaust valve. Detailed analysis of the purge valves failed to conclusively demonstrate their ability to close during a LOCA in time to limit offsite doses. Therefore, these valves are required to be in the closed position with control power removed during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4.

This can be accomplished by de-energizing the source of electric power or by removing the air supply to the valve operator.

Insert 3 SR 3.6.3.2 This SR requires verification that each containment isolation manual valve and blind flange located outside containment and not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured and required to be closed during accident conditions is closed. The SR helps to ensure that post accident leakage of radioactive fluids or gases outside the containment boundary is within design limits. This SR does not require any testing or valve manipulation.

Rather, it involves verification that those containment isolation valves Davis-Besse B 3.6.3-10 Revision TBD Revision 25

Provided for Information Only Containment Isolation Valves B 3.6.3 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.6.3.2 (continued) outside containment and capable of being mispositioned are in the correct position. Since verification of valve position for containment isolation valves outside containment is relatively easy, the 31 day Frequency is based on engineering judgment and was chosen to provide added assurance of the correct positions. The SR specifies that containment isolation valves open under administrative controls are not required to meet the SR during the time the valves are open. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in the closed position, since these were verified to be in the correct position upon locking, sealing, or securing.

Insert 3 The Note applies to valves and blind flanges located in high radiation areas and allows these devices to be verified closed by use of administrative means. Allowing verification by administrative means is considered acceptable, since access to these areas is typically restricted during MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 for ALARA reasons. Therefore, the probability of misalignment of these containment isolation valves, once they have been verified to be in the proper position, is low.

SR 3.6.3.3 This SR requires verification that each containment isolation manual valve and blind flange that is located inside containment and not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured and required to be closed during accident conditions is closed. The SR helps to ensure that post accident leakage of radioactive fluids or gases outside the containment boundary is within design limits. For containment isolation valves inside containment, the Frequency of "prior to entering MODE 4 from MODE 5 if not performed within the previous 92 days" is appropriate, since these containment isolation valves are operated under administrative controls and the probability of their misalignment is low. The SR specifies that containment isolation valves open under administrative controls are not required to meet the SR during the time they are open. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in the closed position, since these were verified to be in the correct position upon locking, sealing, or securing.

The Note allows valves and blind flanges located in high radiation areas to be verified closed by use of administrative means.

The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass this Surveillance when performed at the 24 month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency was concluded to be acceptable from a reliability standpoint.

Insert 3 SR 3.6.3.7 This SR ensures that the combined leakage rate of all secondary containment bypass leakage paths is less than or equal to the specified leakage rate. This provides assurance that the assumptions in the safety analysis are met. The leakage rate acceptance criteria is in accordance with the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program requirements, unless the penetration is isolated by use of one closed and de-activated automatic valve, closed manual valve, or blind flange. In this case, the leakage rate of the isolated bypass leakage path is assumed to be the actual pathway leakage through the isolation device. If both isolation valves in the penetration are closed, the actual leakage rate is the lesser leakage rate of the two valves. The Frequency is required by the Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program. This SR simply imposes additional acceptance criteria. Bypass leakage is considered part of La.

APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, a DBA could cause a release of radioactive material to containment. In MODES 5 and 6, the probability and consequences of these events are reduced due to the pressure and temperature limitations of these MODES. Therefore, maintaining containment average air temperature within the limit is not required in MODE 5 or 6.

ACTIONS A.1 When containment average air temperature is not within the limit of the LCO, it must be restored within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since these were verified to be in the correct position prior to locking, sealing, or securing. This SR also does not apply to valves that cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves. This SR does not require any testing or valve manipulation.

SR 3.6.6.3 Verifying that each containment spray pump's developed head at the flow test point is greater than or equal to the required developed head ensures that spray pump performance has not degraded during the cycle. Flow and differential pressure are normal tests of centrifugal pump performance required by the ASME Code (Ref. 6). Since the Containment Spray System pumps cannot be tested with flow through the spray headers, they are tested on recirculation flow. This test confirms one point on the pump design curve and is indicative of overall performance. Such inservice tests confirm component OPERABILITY, trend performance, and detect incipient failures by indicating abnormal performance.

Provided for Information Only TSP Storage B 3.6.7 BASES ACTIONS B.1 and B.2 (continued) systems. The extended interval to reach MODE 5 allows additional time for restoration of the TSP storage baskets and is reasonable when considering that the driving force for a release of radioactive material from the Reactor Coolant System is reduced in MODE 3.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.6.7.1 REQUIREMENTS To reduce the potential for post-LOCA iodine re-evolution from the water in the containment emergency sump, the containment spray must be an alkaline solution. Since the BWST contents are normally acidic, the TSP storage baskets must provide sufficient volume of TSP to adjust the pH for all water injected. The minimum required volume of TSP is the volume that will achieve a post-LOCA borated water mixture pH of 7.0, conservatively considering the maximum possible sump water volume and the maximum possible boron concentration. The amount of TSP required is based on the mass of TSP needed to achieve the required pH.

However, a required volume is verified by the SR, rather than the mass, since it is not feasible to weigh the entire amount of TSP in containment.

The minimum required volume is based on the manufactured density of TSP (53 lb/ft3). Since TSP can have a tendency to agglomerate from high humidity in the containment, the density may increase and the volume decrease during normal plant operation, however, solubility characteristics are not expected to change. Therefore, considering possible agglomeration and increase in density, verifying the minimum volume of TSP in the storage baskets is conservative with respect to ensuring the capability to achieve the minimum required pH. This SR is performed to verify the availability of sufficient TSP in the TSP storage baskets. A volume of 290 ft3 of TSP will produce a pH range between 7.0 and 8.0 within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and therefore, will create the desired pH level of the containment spray. The 24 month Frequency is based on the low probability of undetected change in the TSP volume occurring during the SR interval (the TSP is contained in storage baskets located in the containment normal sump and on the 565 ft elevation of containment).

No Change - Provided for TSVs Information Only B 3.7.4 BASES APPLICABILITY (continued)

In MODES 5 and 6, the steam generators do not contain much energy because their temperature is below the boiling point of water; therefore, the TSVs are not required for isolation of potential high energy secondary system pipe breaks in these MODES.

ACTIONS The ACTIONS Table is modified by a NOTE indicating that separate Condition entry is allowed for each TSV.

A.1 and A.2 With one TSV inoperable, action must be taken to close the inoperable TSV within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

The MSIVs are also available to provide the required isolation for the postulated accidents.

Inoperable TSVs that are closed must be verified on a periodic basis that they are closed. This is necessary to ensure that the assumptions in the safety analysis remain valid. The 7 day Completion Time is reasonable, based on engineering judgment, in view of TSV status indications available in the control room, and other administrative controls, to ensure that these valves are closed.

No Change - Provided for EFW Information Only B 3.7.5 BASES ACTIONS D.1 and D.2 (continued)

The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.

In MODE 4, with two AFW trains inoperable, operation is allowed to continue because only the MDFP train is required in accordance with the Note that modifies the LCO. Although not required, the unit may continue to cool down and initiate DHR.

E.1 Required Action E.1 is modified by a Note indicating that all required MODE changes are suspended until at least one EFW train is restored to OPERABLE status.

With all EFW trains inoperable in MODE 1, 2, or 3, the unit is in a seriously degraded condition with no safety related means for conducting a cooldown, and only limited means for conducting a cooldown with nonsafety grade equipment. In such a condition, the unit should not be perturbed by any action, including a power change, that might result in a trip. The seriousness of this condition requires that action be started immediately to restore at least one EFW train to OPERABLE status.

LCO 3.0.3 is not applicable, as it could force the units into a less safe condition.

F.1 In MODE 4, either the steam generator loops or the DHR loops can be used to provide heat removal, which is addressed in LCO 3.4.6, "RCS Loops - MODE 4." With the required MDFP train inoperable, action must be immediately initiated to restore the inoperable train to OPERABLE status.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.5.1 REQUIREMENTS Verifying the correct alignment for manual, power operated, and automatic valves in the EFW water and steam supply flow paths provides assurance that the proper flow paths exist for EFW operation. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since those valves are verified to be in the correct position prior to locking, sealing, or securing. This SR also does not apply to valves that cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves. This Davis-Besse B 3.7.5-6 Revision 25

Provided for Information Only EFW B 3.7.5 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.7.5.1 (continued)

Surveillance does not require any testing or valve manipulation; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of potentially being mispositioned are in the correct position.

A Note has been added that allows the MDFP train valves to be in the non-correct position (aligned in the Main Feedwater mode) when in MODE 1 40% RTP or in MODE 2, 3, or 4, provided the valves are capable of being locally realigned to the correct position (i.e., aligned in the AFW mode). The capability of the valves to be locally realigned to the correct position is met if a handwheel is present for each manual valve and either a handwheel is present or a power supply is available for each power operated valve. This Note is necessary because the MDFP train is normally aligned to the Main Feedwater System during a reactor startup.

The allowance is acceptable since the MDFP train is a manually actuated train.

The 31 day Frequency is based on engineering judgment, is consistent with the procedural controls governing valve operation, and ensures correct valve positions.

Insert 3 SR 3.7.5.2 Verifying that each AFW pump's developed head at the flow test point is greater than or equal to the required developed head ensures that AFW pump performance has not degraded during the cycle. Flow and differential head are normal tests of pump performance required by the ASME Code (Ref. 3). Because it is undesirable to introduce cold AFW into the steam generators while they are operating, this test is performed on recirculation flow.

This test confirms one point on the pump design curve and is indicative of overall performance. Such inservice tests confirm component OPERABILITY, trend performance, and detect incipient failures by indicating abnormal performance. Performance of inservice testing as discussed in the ASME Code (Ref. 3) and the INSERVICE TESTING PROGRAM satisfies this requirement.

Insert 3 This SR is modified by a Note indicating that the SR should be deferred until suitable test conditions are established. This deferral is required because there is insufficient steam pressure to perform the test.

Davis-Besse B 3.7.5-7 Revision 25 Revision TBD

Provided for Information Only EFW B 3.7.5 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.7.5.3 This SR verifies the ability of the MDFP train to operate in the emergency feedwater mode. This SR verifies the proper operation of each power operated and automatic valve in the MDFP train flow path to the AFW System, and that the MDFP can be started and operated from the control room.

As noted, the SR is not required to be performed until 73 hours8.449074e-4 days <br />0.0203 hours <br />1.207011e-4 weeks <br />2.77765e-5 months <br /> after the MDFP train is aligned to the AFW System. This Note is necessary because the MDFP train is normally aligned to the Main Feedwater System during a reactor startup. This allowance is acceptable since any inoperabilities with the MDFP train would likely be discovered during the reactor startup when it is being used in the main feedwater mode.

The 92 day Frequency is acceptable based on engineering judgment and corresponds to the testing requirements for pumps as contained in the ASME Code (Ref. 3).

Insert 3 SR 3.7.5.4 This SR verifies that AFW can be delivered to the appropriate steam generator in the event of any accident or transient that generates an SFRCS signal by demonstrating that each AFW automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct position on an actual or simulated actuation signal. This SR is not required for valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position under administrative controls.

The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a unit outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. The 24 month Frequency is also acceptable based on operating experience and design reliability of the equipment.

This SR is modified by a Note indicating that the SR be deferred until Insert 3 suitable test conditions are established. This deferral is required because there is insufficient steam pressure to perform the test.

SR 3.7.5.5 This SR verifies that the AFW pumps start in the event of any accident or transient that generates an SFRCS signal by demonstrating that each AFW pump starts automatically on an actual or simulated actuation signal. The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a unit outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed Davis-Besse B 3.7.5-8 Revision TBD Revision 25

Provided for Information Only EFW B 3.7.5 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.7.5.5 (continued) with the reactor at power. This SR is modified by a Note indicating that the SR be deferred until suitable test conditions are established. This deferral is required because there is insufficient steam pressure to perform the test. Insert 3 SR 3.7.5.6 and SR 3.7.5.7 This SR ensures that EFW is properly aligned by verifying the flow paths to each steam generator prior to entering MODE 2 (for SR 3.7.5.6) and MODE 3 (for SR 3.7.5.7), following refueling or after more than 30 days in any combination of MODE 5 or 6, or defueled. OPERABILITY of EFW flow paths must be demonstrated before sufficient core heat is generated that would require the operation of EFW during a subsequent shutdown.

The flow paths shall be verified by either steam generator level change or AFW safety grade flow indication (e.g., the Post Accident Monitoring AFW Flow Rate indicators). Verification of actual AFW flow capacity is not required by this SR. The Frequency is reasonable, based on engineering judgment, in view of other administrative controls to ensure that the flow paths are OPERABLE. To further ensure EFW alignment, flow path OPERABILITY is verified, following extended outages to determine no misalignment of valves has occurred. This SR ensures that the common flow path from the CSTs to the steam generator is properly aligned.

SR 3.7.5.8, SR 3.7.5.9, and SR 3.7.5.10 These SRs are performed on each AFW train's Steam Generator Level Control System channels. This helps ensure the each AFW train properly controls steam generator level after an automatic start of the AFW train.

Performance of the CHANNEL CHECK every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> ensures a gross failure of instrumentation has not occurred. A CHANNEL CHECK is normally a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that instrument channels monitoring the same parameter should read approximately the same value. Significant deviations between the two instrument channels could be an indication of excessive instrument drift in one of the channels or of something even more serious. CHANNEL CHECK will detect gross channel failure; therefore, it is key in verifying that the instrumentation continues to operate properly between each CHANNEL CALIBRATION. Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including isolation, indication, and readability. If a channel is outside the Davis-Besse B 3.7.5-9 Revision TBD Revision 25

Provided for Information Only EFW B 3.7.5 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.7.5.8, SR 3.7.5.9, and SR 3.7.5.10 (continued) criteria, it may be an indication that the detector or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit. If the channels are normally off scale during times when surveillance is required, the CHANNEL CHECK will only verify that they are off scale in the same direction.

A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is performed on each channel to ensure the entire channel will perform the intended function.

CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument channel, including the sensor. The test verifies that the channel responds to a measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy.

CHANNEL CALIBRATION leaves the channel adjusted to account for instrument drift between successive calibrations to ensure that the channel remains operational between successive tests. CHANNEL CALIBRATIONS must be performed consistent with the unit specific setpoint and tolerance.

The CHANNEL CHECK Frequency of every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> is based on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare. Since the probability of two random failures in redundant channels in any 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> period is extremely low, the CHANNEL CHECK minimizes the chance of loss of protective function due to failure of redundant channels. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal, but more frequent, checks of channel operability during normal operational use of the displays associated with the LCO's required channels.

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST Frequency of 31 days is reasonable, based on operating experience and on other Surveillances (such as a CHANNEL CHECK), that ensure proper functioning between CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TESTS.

The CHANNEL CALIBRATION Frequency of 24 months is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage.

The SWS is a normally operating system that cannot be fully actuated as part of the normal testing. This SR is not required for valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position under administrative controls. The 24 month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a unit outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed at the 24 month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency is acceptable from a reliability standpoint.

The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.

D.1 During movement of irradiated fuel assemblies, if the CRE boundary is inoperable, action must be taken immediately to suspend activities that could result in a release of radioactivity that might require isolation of the CRE. This places the unit in a condition that minimizes the accident risk.

This does not preclude the movement of fuel to a safe position.

E.1 If both CREVS trains are inoperable in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4 for reasons other than an inoperable CRE boundary (i.e., Condition B), the CREVS may not be capable of performing the intended function and the unit is in a condition outside the accident analysis. Therefore, LCO 3.0.3 must be entered immediately.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.10.1 REQUIREMENTS Standby systems should be checked periodically to ensure that they function properly. As the environment and normal operating conditions on this system are not severe, testing each train once every month adequately checks this system.

The CRE is considered habitable when the radiological dose to CRE occupants calculated in the licensing basis analyses of DBA consequences is no more than 5 rem whole body or its equivalent to any part of the body and the CRE occupants are protected from hazardous chemicals and smoke. This SR verifies that the unfiltered air inleakage into the CRE is no greater than the flow rate assumed in the licensing basis analyses of DBA consequences.

When unfiltered air inleakage is greater than the assumed flow rate, Condition B must be entered.

No Change - Provided for CREATCS Information Only B 3.7.11 BASES LCO Two independent and redundant trains of the CREATCS are required to be OPERABLE to ensure that at least one is available, assuming a single failure disables the other train. Total system failure could result in the equipment operating temperature exceeding limits in the event of an accident.

A CREATCS train is considered OPERABLE when the individual components that are necessary to maintain control room temperature are OPERABLE. These components include the cooling coils, water and air cooled condensing units, and associated temperature control instrumentation. In addition, each CREATCS train must be OPERABLE to the extent that air circulation can be maintained.

APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the CREATCS must be OPERABLE to ensure that the control room temperature will not exceed equipment OPERABILITY requirements following isolation of the control room.

ACTIONS A.1 With one CREATCS train inoperable, action must be taken to restore the inoperable CREATCS train to OPERABLE status within 30 days. In this condition, the remaining OPERABLE CREATCS train is adequate to maintain the control room temperature within limits. However, the overall reliability is reduced because a failure in the OPERABLE CREATCS train could result in a loss of CREATCS function. The 30 day Completion Time is based on the low probability of an event occurring requiring control room isolation, the consideration that the remaining train can provide the required capabilities, and the alternate nonsafety related cooling means that are available.

B.1 and B.2 If the inoperable CREATCS train cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the required Completion Time, the unit must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the unit must be placed in at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, and in MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />.

The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging unit systems.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.12.1 REQUIREMENTS Standby systems should be checked periodically to ensure that they function properly. Since the environment and normal operating conditions on this system are not severe, testing each train once a month provides an adequate check on this system.

SR 3.7.12.4 This SR verifies the integrity of the shield building area negative pressure boundary. The ability of the Station EVS to attain a negative pressure in the annulus is periodically tested to verify proper functioning of the Station EVS. During the post accident mode of operation, the Station EVS is designed to maintain a slight negative pressure in the shield building area negative pressure boundary with respect to adjacent areas to prevent unfiltered leakage. The Station EVS is designed to attain this negative pressure at a flow rate of 7200 cfm and 8800 cfm from the shield building area negative pressure boundary. The Surveillance is performed with the flow path established prior to starting the Station EVS fan, and the other dampers associated with the Shield Building area negative pressure boundary closed. The 4 seconds required to attain a negative pressure of 0.25 inches water gauge is based on: an assumed leakage area of 2.4 square feet; and a starting pressure of zero at the required flowrate. The Frequency of 24 months on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS is consistent with industry practice.

This action ensures that the remaining train is OPERABLE, that no undetected failures preventing system operation will occur, and that any active failures will be readily detected.

If the system is not placed in operation, this action requires suspension of irradiated fuel movement in the spent fuel pool building, which precludes a fuel handling accident. This action does not preclude the movement of fuel assemblies to a safe position.

C.1 When two trains of the Spent Fuel Pool Area EVS are inoperable, the unit must be placed in a condition in which the LCO does not apply. This LCO involves immediately suspending movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool building. This does not preclude the movement of fuel to a safe position.

Provided for Information Only Spent Fuel Pool Water Level B 3.7.14 BASES ACTIONS A.1 When the initial conditions for an accident cannot be met, immediate action must be taken to preclude the occurrence of an accident. With the spent fuel pool at less than the required level, the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel pool is immediately suspended. This effectively precludes the occurrence of a fuel handling accident. In such a case, unit procedures control the movement of loads over the spent fuel. This does not preclude movement of a fuel assembly to a safe position.

Required Action A.1 is modified by a Note indicating that LCO 3.0.3 does not apply. If moving irradiated fuel assemblies while in MODE 5 or 6, LCO 3.0.3 would not specify any action. If moving irradiated fuel assemblies while in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the fuel movement is independent of reactor operations. Therefore, in either case, inability to suspend movement of irradiated fuel assemblies is not sufficient reason to require a reactor shutdown.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.7.14.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR verifies that sufficient spent fuel pool water is available in the event of a fuel handling accident. The water level in the spent fuel pool must be checked periodically. The 7 day Frequency is appropriate because the volume in the pool is normally stable. Water level changes are controlled by unit procedures and are acceptable, based on operating experience.

Provided for Information Only AC Sources - Operating B 3.8.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued) recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.9 (Ref. 3) and Regulatory Guide 1.137 (Ref. 10).

Where the SRs discussed herein specify voltage and frequency tolerances, the following is applicable. The minimum starting output voltage of 4070 V is based on the minimum voltage value required to close the EDG output circuit breaker. The minimum steady state output voltage of 4088 V is the minimum EDG voltage setpoint value evaluated in the EDG transient analysis, which demonstrates Safety Guide 9 (Ref. 11) transient voltage criteria are satisfied. The maximum steady state output voltage of 4400 V is equal to the maximum operating voltage specified for 4000 V motors. It ensures that for a lightly loaded distribution system, the voltage at the terminals of 4000 V motors is no more than the maximum rated operating voltage. The minimum starting frequency value was chosen to be consistent with the minimum steady state frequency requirements. The minimum steady state output frequency of 59.5 Hz is the minimum EDG frequency value evaluated for plant-specific accident analyses, and is demonstrated by the EDG transient analysis to satisfy Safety Guide 9 (Ref. 11) transient frequency criteria. The maximum steady state output frequency of 60.5 Hz supports plant-specific analyses values.

SR 3.8.1.1 This SR ensures proper circuit continuity for the offsite AC electrical power supply to the onsite distribution network and availability of offsite AC electrical power. The breaker alignment verifies that each breaker is in its correct position to ensure that distribution buses and loads are connected to their preferred power source, and that appropriate independence of offsite circuits is maintained. The 7 day Frequency is adequate since breaker position is not likely to change without the operator being aware of it and because its status is displayed in the control room.

Insert 3 SR 3.8.1.2 and SR 3.8.1.8 These SRs help to ensure the availability of the standby electrical power supply to mitigate DBAs and transients and to maintain the unit in a safe shutdown condition.

To minimize the wear on moving parts that do not get lubricated when the engine is not running, these SRs are modified by a Note (Note 1 for SR 3.8.1.2 and the Note for SR 3.8.1.8) to indicate that all EDG starts for Davis-Besse B 3.8.1-13 Revision 24 Revision TBD

Provided for Information Only AC Sources - Operating B 3.8.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 3.8.1.2 and SR 3.8.1.8 (continued) these Surveillances may be preceded by an engine prelube period and followed by a warmup period prior to loading.

For the purposes of SR 3.8.1.2 and SR 3.8.1.8 testing, the EDGs are started from standby conditions. Standby conditions for an EDG means that the diesel engine coolant and oil are being continuously circulated and temperature is being maintained consistent with manufacturer recommendations.

In order to reduce stress and wear on diesel engines, some manufacturers recommend a modified start in which the starting speed of EDGs is limited, warmup is limited to this lower speed, and the EDGs are gradually accelerated to synchronous speed prior to loading. This is the intent of Note 2, which is only applicable when such modified start procedures are recommended by the manufacturer.

SR 3.8.1.8 requires that, at a 184 day Frequency, the EDG starts from standby conditions and achieves required voltage and frequency within 10 seconds. The 10 second start requirement supports the assumptions of the design basis LOCA analysis in the UFSAR, Section 15 (Ref. 5).

The 10 second start requirement is not applicable to SR 3.8.1.2 (see Note 2) when a modified start procedure as described above is used. If a modified start is not used, the 10 second start requirement of SR 3.8.1.8 applies.

Since SR 3.8.1.8 requires a 10 second start, it is more restrictive than SR 3.8.1.2, and it may be performed in lieu of SR 3.8.1.2.

In addition to the SR requirements, the time for the EDG to reach steady state operation, unless the modified EDG start method is employed, is monitored to identify degradation of governor and voltage regulator performance.

The 31 day Frequency for SR 3.8.1.2 is consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.9 (Ref. 3). The 184 day Frequency for SR 3.8.1.8 is a reduction in cold testing consistent with Generic Letter 84-15 (Ref. 7). These Frequencies provide adequate assurance of EDG OPERABILITY, while minimizing degradation resulting from testing.

SR 3.8.1.3 Consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.9 (Ref. 3), this Surveillance verifies that the EDGs are capable of synchronizing with the offsite electrical system and accepting loads 90% to 100% of the continuous rating of the EDG. A run time of 60 minutes ensures the engine temperatures are stabilized, while minimizing the time that the EDG is connected to the offsite source.

Although no power factor requirements are established by this SR, the EDG is normally operated at a lagging power factor between 0.8 and 0.95. The 0.8 value is the design rating of the machine, while the 0.95 is an administrative limitation. The load band is provided to avoid routine overloading of the EDG. Routine overloading may result in more frequent teardown inspections being required in order to maintain EDG reliability.

The 31 day Frequency for this Surveillance is consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.9 (Ref. 3).

Insert 3 This SR is modified by four Notes. Note 1 indicates that diesel engine runs for this Surveillance may include gradual loading, as recommended by the manufacturer, so that mechanical stress and wear on the diesel engine are minimized. Note 2 states that momentary transients because of changing bus loads do not invalidate this test. Note 3 indicates that this Surveillance should be conducted on only one EDG at a time in order to avoid common cause failures that might result from offsite circuit or grid perturbations. Note 4 stipulates a prerequisite requirement for performance of this SR. A successful EDG start must precede this test to credit satisfactory performance.

SR 3.8.1.4 This SR provides verification that the level of fuel oil in the day tank is within the required limit. The level is expressed as an equivalent volume in gallons, and ensures adequate fuel oil for approximately 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br /> of EDG operation at full load. This volume is also credited (in conjunction with the minimum required level in the associated storage tank) to support 7 days of EDG operation at full load.

The 31 day Frequency is adequate to assure that a sufficient supply of fuel oil is available, since low level alarms are provided and unit operators would be aware of any large uses of fuel oil during this period.

SR 3.8.1.5 Microbiological fouling is a major cause of fuel oil degradation. There are numerous bacteria that can grow in fuel oil and cause fouling, but all must have a water environment in order to survive. Removal of water from each fuel oil day tank once every 31 days eliminates the necessary environment for bacterial survival. This is the most effective means of controlling microbiological fouling. In addition, it eliminates the potential for water entrainment in the fuel oil during EDG operation. Water may come from any of several sources, including condensation, ground water, rain water, contaminated fuel oil, and from breakdown of the fuel oil by bacteria. Frequent checking for and removal of accumulated water minimizes fouling and provides data regarding the watertight integrity of the fuel oil system. The Surveillance Frequency is consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.137 (Ref. 10). This SR is for preventive maintenance. The presence of water does not necessarily represent failure of this SR, provided the accumulated water is removed during the performance of this Surveillance.

Insert 3 SR 3.8.1.6 Under accident coincident with loss of offsite power conditions loads are sequentially connected to the bus by the load sequencers and emergency time delay relays (i.e., the makeup pump relays). The sequencing logic controls the permissive and starting signals to motor breakers to prevent overloading of the EDGs due to high motor starting currents. The 10%

load sequence time interval tolerance ensures that sufficient time exists for the EDG to restore frequency and voltage prior to applying the next load and that safety analysis assumptions regarding ESF equipment time delays are not violated. Reference 2 provides a summary of the automatic loading of essential buses.

The Frequency of 31 days is based on engineering judgment, taking into consideration unit conditions required to perform the Surveillance.

Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass the SR when performed at the 31 day Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency is acceptable from a reliability standpoint.

Insert 3 SR 3.8.1.7 This Surveillance demonstrates that each fuel oil transfer pump (one per fuel oil transfer system) operates and transfers fuel oil from its associated storage tank to its associated day tank. This is required to support Davis-Besse B 3.8.1-16 Revision TBD Revision 24

SR 3.8.1.7 (continued) continuous operation of standby power sources. This Surveillance provides assurance that the fuel oil transfer pump is OPERABLE, the fuel oil piping system is intact, the fuel delivery piping is not obstructed, and the controls and control systems for fuel transfer systems are OPERABLE.

The Frequency for this SR is 92 days. The 92 day Frequency corresponds to the testing requirements for pumps as contained in the ASME OM Code (Ref. 12).

Insert 3 SR 3.8.1.9 Transfer of each 4.16 kV essential bus power supply from the unit auxiliary source (i.e., the main generator) to the pre-selected offsite circuit (i.e., pre-selected startup tarnsformer) demonstrates that if the unit auxiliary source is supplying power, the transfer circuitry to the qualified offsite circuits is OPERABLE. This ensures the capability of the offsite circuits to be properly aligned, since the unit auxiliary source is not a qualified offsite circuit. As noted (Note 1), the transfer capability is only required to be met if the unit auxiliary source is supplying the electrical power distribution subsystem. Transfer of each 4.16 kV essential bus power supply from the normal offsite circuit to the alternate offsite circuit (via the fast transfer between the two startup transformers) demonstrates the OPERABILITY of the alternate circuit distribution network to power the shutdown loads.

The 24 month Frequency of the Surveillance is based on engineering judgment, taking into consideration the unit conditions required to perform the Surveillance, and is intended to be consistent with expected fuel cycle lengths. Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass the SR when performed at the 24 month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency was concluded to be acceptable from a reliability standpoint.

This SR is modified by a Note (Note 2). The reason for the Note is that Insert 3 during operation with the reactor critical, performance of the automatic transfer portion of SR 3.8.1.9.a and all of SR 3.9.1.9.b could cause perturbations to the electrical distribution systems that could challenge continued steady state operation and, as a result, unit safety systems.

This restriction from normally performing the automatic portion of SR 3.8.1.9.a and all of SR 3.8.1.9.b in MODE 1 or 2 is further amplified to allow the Surveillance to be performed for the purpose of reestablishing Davis-Besse B 3.8.1-17 Revision 24 Revision TBD

This assessment shall, as a minimum, consider the potential outcomes and transients associated with a failed Surveillance, a successful Surveillance, and a perturbation of the offsite or onsite system when they are tied together or operated independently for the Surveillance; as well as the operator procedures available to cope with these outcomes. These shall be measured against the avoided risk of a plant shutdown and startup to determine that plant safety is maintained or enhanced when the Surveillance is performed in MODE 1 or 2. Risk insights or deterministic methods may be used for this assessment. Credit may be taken for unplanned events that satisfy this SR.

SR 3.8.1.10 Each EDG is provided with an engine overspeed trip to prevent damage to the engine. Recovery from the transient caused by the loss of a large load could cause diesel engine overspeed, which, if excessive, might result in a trip of the engine. This Surveillance demonstrates the EDG load response characteristics and capability to reject the largest single load (the high pressure injection pumps - approximately 540 kW) without exceeding a predetermined margin to the overspeed trip. This Surveillance may be accomplished by either:

a. Tripping the EDG output breaker with the EDG carrying greater than or equal to its associated single largest post-accident load while paralleled to offsite power, or while solely supplying the bus; or
b. Tripping its associated single largest post-accident load or its equivalent with the EDG solely supplying the bus.

Consistent with Safety Guide 9 (Ref. 11), the load rejection test is acceptable if the increase in diesel speed does not exceed 75% of the difference between synchronous speed and the overspeed trip setpoint, or 15% above synchronous speed, whichever is lower. This corresponds to 66.75 Hz, which is 75% of the difference between synchronous speed and the overspeed trip setpoint.

The 24 month Frequency takes into consideration unit conditions required to perform the Surveillance, and is intended to be consistent with expected fuel cycle lengths.

This SR is modified by two Notes. The reason for Note 1 is that during operation with the reactor critical, performance of this SR could cause perturbations to the electrical distribution systems that could challenge continued steady state operation and, as a result, unit safety systems.

This restriction from normally performing the Surveillance in MODE 1 or 2 is further amplified to allow the Surveillance to be performed for the purpose of reestablishing OPERABILITY (e.g., post work testing following corrective maintenance, corrective modification, deficient or incomplete surveillance testing, and other unanticipated OPERABILITY concerns) provided an assessment determines plant safety is maintained or enhanced.

Risk insights or deterministic methods may be used for this assessment.

Credit may be taken for unplanned events that satisfy this SR. Note 2 ensures that the EDG is tested under load conditions that are as close to design basis conditions as possible. When synchronized with offsite power, testing should be performed within the power factor limit. This power factor is representative of the actual inductive loading an EDG would see under design basis accident conditions. The power factor limit is 0.84 for EDG 1 and 0.84 for EDG 2. Under certain conditions, however, Note 2 allows the Surveillance to be conducted outside the power factor limit. These conditions occur when grid voltage is high, and the additional field excitation needed to get the power factor to within the limit results in voltages on the essential buses that are too high. Under these conditions, the power factor should be maintained as close as practicable to the limit while still maintaining acceptable voltage limits on the essential buses. In other circumstances, the grid voltage may be such that the EDG excitation levels needed to obtain a power factor within limit may not cause unacceptable voltages on the essential buses, but the excitation levels are in excess of those recommended for the EDG. In such cases, the power factor shall be maintained as close as practicable to the power factor limit without exceeding the EDG excitation limits.

SR 3.8.1.11 Consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.9 (Ref. 3), paragraph C.2.2.4, this Surveillance demonstrates the operability of the standby power sources during loss of the offsite source. This test verifies all actions encountered from the loss of offsite power, including shedding of the non-essential loads and energization of the essential buses and respective loads from the EDG. It further demonstrates the capability of the EDG to automatically achieve the required voltage and frequency within the specified time.

The EDG auto-start time of 10 seconds is derived from requirements of the accident analysis to respond to a design basis large break LOCA.

The Surveillance should be continued for a minimum of 5 minutes in order to demonstrate that all starting transients have decayed and stability has been achieved.

The requirement to verify the connection and power supply of permanent and auto-connected loads is intended to satisfactorily show the relationship of these loads to the EDG loading logic (i.e., the individual time delay relays for the component cooling water, service water, and makeup pumps). In certain circumstances, some of these loads can not actually be connected or loaded without undue hardship or potential for undesired operation. In lieu of actual demonstration of connection and loading of loads, testing that adequately shows the capability of the EDG system to perform these functions is acceptable. This testing may include any series of sequential, overlapping, or total steps so that the entire connection and loading sequence is verified.

The Frequency of 24 months takes into consideration unit conditions required to perform the Surveillance, and is intended to be consistent with expected fuel cycle lengths. Insert 3 This SR is modified by two Notes. The reason for Note 1 is to minimize wear and tear on the EDGs during testing. For the purpose of this testing, the EDGs must be started from standby conditions, that is, with the engine coolant and oil continuously circulated and temperature maintained consistent with manufacturer recommendations. The reason for Note 2 is that performing the Surveillance would remove a required offsite circuit from service, perturb the electrical distribution system, and challenge safety systems. This restriction from normally performing the Surveillance in MODE 1, 2, 3, or 4 is further amplified to allow portions of the Surveillance to be performed for the purpose of reestablishing OPERABILITY (e.g., post work testing following corrective maintenance, corrective modification, deficient or incomplete surveillance testing, and Davis-Besse B 3.8.1-20 Revision Revision 24 TBD

SR 3.8.1.12 This Surveillance demonstrates that EDG noncritical protective functions (e.g., high jacket water temperature) are bypassed on a loss of voltage signal or an SFAS actuation test signal. Noncritical automatic trips are all automatic trips except:

a. Engine overspeed; and
b. Generator differential current.

The noncritical trips are bypassed during DBAs and provide alarms on abnormal engine conditions. These alarms provide the operator with sufficient time to react appropriately. The EDG availability to mitigate the DBA is more critical than protecting the engine against minor problems that are not immediately detrimental to emergency operation of the EDG.

The EDG starts for this Surveillance can be performed either from standby or hot conditions. The provisions for prelubricating and warmup, discussed in SR 3.8.1.2, and for gradual loading, discussed in SR 3.8.1.3, are applicable to this SR.

The load band is provided to avoid routine overloading of the EDG.

Routine overloading may result in more frequent teardown inspections, in accordance with vendor recommendations, in order to maintain EDG OPERABILITY.

Note 3 ensures that the EDG is tested under load conditions that are consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.9 (Ref. 3) for the 2-hour portion of the test and are as close to design conditions as possible for the 6-hour portion of the test. When synchronized with offsite power, testing should be performed within the power factor limit. This power factor is representative of the actual inductive loading an EDG would see under design basis accident conditions. When an EDG is tested at a load equivalent to 105% to 110%

of the continuous rating (part a), the power factor limit is < 0.90. When an EDG is tested at a load equivalent to 90% to 100% of the continuous rating (part b), the power factor limit is 0.84 for EDG 1 and 0.84 for EDG 2. Under certain conditions, however, Note 3 allows the Surveillance to be conducted outside the power factor limit. These conditions occur when grid voltage is high, and the additional field excitation needed to get the power factor to within the limit results in voltages on the essential buses that are too high.

SR 3.8.1.14 This Surveillance demonstrates that the diesel engine can restart from a hot condition, such as subsequent to shutdown from normal Surveillances, and achieve the required voltage and frequency within 10 seconds. The 10 second time is derived from the requirements of the accident analysis to respond to a design basis large break LOCA.

The 24 month Frequency is based on engineering judgment and is intended to be consistent with the expected fuel cycle lengths. Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass the SR when performed at the 24 month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency is acceptable from a reliability standpoint. Insert 3 This SR is modified by two Notes. Note 1 ensures that the test is performed with the diesel sufficiently hot. The load band is provided to avoid routine overloading of the EDG.

Note 2 allows all EDG starts to be preceded by an engine prelube period to minimize wear and tear on the diesel during testing.

SR 3.8.1.15 In the event of a DBA coincident with a loss of offsite power, the EDGs are required to supply the necessary power to ESF systems so that the fuel, RCS, and containment design limits are not exceeded.

This Surveillance demonstrates the EDG operation, as discussed in the Bases for SR 3.8.1.11, during a loss of offsite power actuation test signal in conjunction with an SFAS actuation signal. For this test, the EDG loading logic includes both the load sequencer and the individual time delay relays for the makeup pumps.

D.1 If the test results for the new fuel oil properties defined in the Bases for SR 3.8.3.3 that are not required to be obtained prior to addition of the new fuel oil to the storage tanks are not within the required limits, a period of 30 days is allowed for restoring the stored fuel oil properties. This period provides sufficient time to test the stored fuel oil to determine that the new fuel oil, when mixed with previously stored fuel oil, remains acceptable, or to restore the stored fuel oil properties. This restoration may involve feed and bleed procedures, filtering, or combinations of these procedures.

Even if an EDG start and load was required during this time interval and the fuel oil properties were outside limits, there is a high likelihood that the EDG would still be capable of performing its intended function.

E.1 With starting air receiver pressure < 210 psig in the required air start receiver, sufficient capacity for five successive EDG start attempts does not exist. However, as long as the receiver pressure is 139 psig, there is adequate capacity for at least one start attempt, and the EDG can be considered OPERABLE while the air receiver pressure is restored to the required limit. A period of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is considered sufficient to complete restoration to the required pressure prior to declaring the EDG inoperable.

This period is acceptable based on the remaining air start capacity, the fact that most EDG starts are accomplished on the first attempt, and the low probability of an event during this brief period.

F.1 With a Required Action and associated Completion Time not met, or one or more EDGs with fuel oil, lube oil, or starting air subsystem not within limits for reasons other than addressed by Conditions A through E, the associated EDG may be incapable of performing its intended function and must be immediately declared inoperable.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.3.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR provides verification that there is an adequate inventory of fuel oil in the storage tanks to support each EDG's operation for 7 days at full load. Credit for the minimum required level in the associated day tank (4000 gallons per SR 3.8.1.4) is being taken to support the 7 days of EDG operation. The 7 day period is sufficient time to place the unit in a safe shutdown condition and to bring in replenishment fuel from an offsite location.

The 31 day Frequency is adequate to ensure that a sufficient supply of fuel oil is available, since low level alarms are provided and unit operators would be aware of any large uses of fuel oil during this period.

Insert 3 SR 3.8.3.2 This Surveillance ensures that sufficient lube oil inventory is available to support at least 7 days of full load operation for each EDG. The 260 gal requirement is based on the EDG manufacturer consumption values for the run time of the EDG. Implicit in this SR is the requirement to verify the capability to transfer the lube oil from its storage location to the EDG, when the EDG lube oil sump does not hold adequate inventory for 7 days of full load operation without the level reaching the manufacturer recommended minimum level.

A 31 day Frequency is adequate to ensure that a sufficient lube oil supply is onsite, since EDG starts and run time are closely monitored by the unit staff.

Insert 3 SR 3.8.3.3 The tests listed below are a means of determining whether new fuel oil is of the appropriate grade and has not been contaminated with substances that would have an immediate, detrimental impact on diesel engine combustion. If results from these tests are within acceptable limits, the fuel oil may be added to the storage tanks without concern for contaminating the entire volume of fuel oil in the storage tanks. These tests are to be conducted prior to adding the new fuel to the storage tank(s), but in no case is the time between receipt of new fuel and conducting the tests to exceed 31 days. The tests, limits, and applicable ASTM Standards are as follows:

a. Sample the new fuel oil in accordance with ASTM D4057-95 (Ref. 6);
b. Verify in accordance with the tests specified in ASTM D975-06 (Ref. 6) that the sample has an absolute specific gravity at 60/60°F of 0.825 and 0.876 or an API gravity at 60°F of 30° and 40° when tested in accordance with ASTM D1298-85 (Ref. 6), a kinematic viscosity at 40°C of 1.9 centistokes and 4.1 centistokes, and a flash point of 125°F; and Davis-Besse B 3.8.3-5 RevisionTBD Revision 0

No Change - Provided for Diesel Fuel Oil, Lube Oil, and Starting Air Information Only B 3.8.3 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.8.3.3 (continued)

c. Verify that the new fuel oil has a clear and bright appearance with proper color when tested in accordance with ASTM D4176-86 or a water and sediment content within limits when tested in accordance with the test specified in ASTM D975-06 (Ref. 6).

Failure to meet any of the above limits is cause for rejecting the new fuel oil, but does not represent a failure to meet the LCO concern since the fuel oil is not added to the storage tanks.

Within 31 days following the initial new fuel oil sample, the fuel oil is analyzed to establish that the other properties specified in Table 1 of ASTM D975-06 (Ref. 7) are met for new fuel oil when tested in accordance with ASTM D975-06 (Ref. 6), except that the analysis for sulfur may be performed in accordance with ASTM D4294-90 (Ref. 6).

The 31 day period is acceptable because the fuel oil properties of interest, even if they were not within stated limits, would not have an immediate effect on EDG operation. This Surveillance ensures the availability of high quality fuel oil for the EDGs.

Fuel oil degradation during long term storage shows up as an increase in particulate, due mostly to oxidation. The presence of particulate does not mean the fuel oil will not burn properly in a diesel engine. The particulate can cause fouling of filters and fuel oil injection equipment, however, which can cause engine failure.

Particulate concentrations should be determined in accordance with ASTM D2276-88 (Ref. 6). The total particulate concentration in the fuel oil has a limit of 10 mg/l.

The Frequency of this test takes into consideration fuel oil degradation trends that indicate that particulate concentration is unlikely to change significantly between Frequency intervals.

SR 3.8.3.4 This Surveillance ensures that, without the aid of the refill compressor, sufficient air start capacity for each EDG is available. The system design requirements for each air start receiver provide for a minimum of five engine start cycles without recharging. The pressure specified in this SR is intended to reflect the lowest value at which the five starts can be accomplished using only one of the two air start receivers for each EDG.

The 31 day Frequency takes into account the capacity, capability, redundancy, and diversity of the AC sources and other indications available in the control room, including alarms, to alert the operator to below normal air start pressure.

Insert 3 SR 3.8.3.5 Microbiological fouling is a major cause of fuel oil degradation. There are numerous bacteria that can grow in fuel oil and cause fouling, but all must have a water environment in order to survive. Removal of water from the fuel storage tanks once every 31 days eliminates the necessary environment for bacterial survival. This is the most effective means of controlling microbiological fouling. In addition, it eliminates the potential for water entrainment in the fuel oil during EDG operation. Water may come from any of several sources, including condensation, ground water, rain water, contaminated fuel oil, and from breakdown of the fuel oil by bacteria. Frequent checking for and removal of accumulated water minimizes fouling and provides data regarding the watertight integrity of the fuel oil system. The Surveillance Frequencies are established by Regulatory Guide 1.137 (Ref. 2). This SR is for preventive maintenance.

The presence of water does not necessarily represent failure of this SR, provided the accumulated water is removed during performance of the Surveillance.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.4.1 REQUIREMENTS Verifying battery terminal voltage while on float charge helps to ensure the effectiveness of the battery chargers, which support the ability of the batteries to perform their intended function. Float charge is the condition in which the charger is supplying the continuous charge required to overcome the internal losses of a battery and maintain the battery in a fully charged state while supplying the continuous steady state loads of the associated DC source. On float charge, battery cells will receive adequate current to optimally charge the battery. The voltage requirements are based on the nominal design voltage of the battery and are consistent with the minimum float voltage established by the battery manufacturer (130.2 V at the battery terminals). This voltage maintains the battery plates in a condition that supports maintaining the grid life (expected to be approximately 20 years). The 7 day Frequency is consistent with manufacturer recommendations and IEEE-450 (Ref. 8).

Insert 3 SR 3.8.4.2 This SR verifies the required design capacity of the required battery chargers.

Provided for Information Only DC Sources - Operating B 3.8.4 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.8.4.2 (continued charged state, irrespective of the status of the unit during these demand occurrences. The minimum required amperes and duration ensure that these requirements can be satisfied.

This SR provides two options. One option requires that each battery charger be capable of supplying 475 amps at the minimum established float voltage for 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. The ampere requirements are also well within the output rating of the chargers. The voltage requirements are based on the charger voltage level after a response to a loss of AC power. The time period is sufficient for the charger temperature to have stabilized and to have been maintained for at least 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

The other option requires that each required battery charger be capable of recharging the battery after a service test coincident with supplying the largest combined demands of the various continuous steady state loads (irrespective of the status of the plant during which these demands occur). This level of loading may not normally be available following the battery service test and will need to be supplemented with additional loads. The duration for this test may be longer than the charger sizing criteria since the battery recharge is affected by float voltage, temperature, and the exponential decay in charging current. The battery is recharged when the measured charging current is 2 amps.

The Surveillance Frequency is acceptable, given the unit conditions required to perform the test and the other administrative controls existing to ensure adequate charger performance during these 18 month intervals.

SR 3.8.4.3 Insert 3 A battery service test is a special test of the battery capability, as found, to satisfy the design requirements (battery duty cycle) of the DC electrical power system. The discharge rate and test length should correspond to the design duty cycle requirements as specified in Reference 4.

The Surveillance Frequency of 24 months is consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.32 (Ref. 9) and Regulatory Guide 1.129 (Ref. 10), which state that the battery service test should be performed during refueling operations, or at some other outage, with intervals between tests not to exceed 24 months.

Davis-Besse B 3.8.4-8 Revision 4

Provided for Information Only Battery Parameters B 3.8.6 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.6.1 REQUIREMENTS Verifying battery float current while on float charge is used to determine the state of charge of the battery. Float charge is the condition in which the charger is supplying the continuous charge required to overcome the internal losses of a battery and maintain the battery in a charged state.

The float current requirements are based on the float current indicative of a charged battery. Use of float current to determine the state of charge of the battery is consistent with IEEE-450 (Ref. 1). The 7 day Frequency is more conservative than the recommendations of IEEE-450 (Ref. 1).

Insert 3 This SR is modified by a Note that states the float current requirement is not required to be met when battery terminal voltage is less than the minimum established float voltage of SR 3.8.4.1. When this float voltage is not maintained the Required Actions of LCO 3.8.4 ACTION A are being taken, which provide the necessary and appropriate verifications of the battery condition. Furthermore, the float current limit of 2 amps is established based on the nominal float voltage value and is not directly applicable when this voltage is not maintained.

SR 3.8.6.2 and SR 3.8.6.5 Optimal long term battery performance is obtained by maintaining a float voltage greater than or equal to the minimum established design limits provided by the battery manufacturer, which corresponds to 130.2 V at the battery terminals, or 2.17 Vpc. This provides adequate over-potential, which limits the formation of lead sulfate and self discharge, which could eventually render the battery inoperable. Float voltages in this range or less, but greater than 2.07 Vpc, are addressed in Specification 5.5.16.

SRs 3.8.6.2 and 3.8.6.5 require verification that the cell float voltages are greater than the short term absolute minimum voltage of 2.07 V. The Frequencies for cell voltage verification every 31 days for pilot cell and 92 days for each connected cell are consistent with IEEE-450 (Ref. 1).

Insert 4 SR 3.8.6.3 The minimum established design limit specified for electrolyte level (greater than the minimum level indication mark) ensures that the plates suffer no physical damage and maintains adequate electron transfer capability. The Frequency is consistent with IEEE-450 (Ref. 1).

Insert 3 Davis-Besse B 3.8.6-5 Revision TBD Revision 0

Provided for Information Only Battery Parameters B 3.8.6 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 3.8.6.4 This Surveillance verifies that the pilot cell temperature is greater than or equal to the minimum established design limit (i.e., 60°F). Pilot cell electrolyte temperature is maintained above this temperature to assure the battery can provide the required current and voltage to meet the design requirements. Temperatures lower than assumed in battery sizing calculations act to inhibit or reduce battery capacity. The Frequency is consistent with IEEE-450 (Ref. 1).

Insert 3 SR 3.8.6.6 A battery performance discharge test is a test of constant current capacity of a battery, normally done in the as found condition, after having been in service, to detect any change in the capacity determined by the acceptance test. The test is intended to determine overall battery degradation due to age and usage.

Either the battery performance discharge test or the modified performance discharge test is acceptable for satisfying SR 3.8.6.6; however, only the modified performance discharge test may be used to satisfy the battery service test requirements of SR 3.8.4.3.

A modified discharge test is a test of the battery capacity and its ability to provide a high rate, short duration load (usually the highest rate of the duty cycle). This will often confirm the battery's ability to meet the critical period of the load duty cycle, in addition to determining its percentage of rated capacity. Initial conditions for the modified performance discharge test should be identical to those specified for a service test as specified in IEEE-450 (Ref. 1).

It may consist of just two rates; for instance the one minute rate for the battery or the largest current load of the duty cycle, followed by the test rate employed for the performance test, both of which envelope the duty cycle of the service test. Since the ampere-hours removed by a one minute discharge represents a very small portion of the battery capacity, the test rate can be changed to that for the performance discharge test without compromising the results of the performance discharge test. The battery terminal voltage for the modified performance discharge test must remain above the minimum battery terminal voltage specified in the battery service test for the duration of time equal to that of the service test.

The acceptance criteria for this Surveillance are consistent with IEEE-450 (Ref. 1) and IEEE-485 (Ref. 4). These references recommend that the Davis-Besse B 3.8.6-6 Revision TBD Revision 0

Provided for Information Only Battery Parameters B 3.8.6 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 3.8.6.6 (continued) battery be replaced if its capacity is below 80% of the manufacturer's rating. A capacity of 80% shows that the battery rate of deterioration is increasing, even if there is ample capacity to meet the load requirements.

Furthermore, the battery is sized to meet the assumed duty cycle loads when the battery design capacity reaches this 80% limit. Insert 3 The Surveillance Frequency for this test is normally 60 months. If the battery shows degradation, or if the battery has reached 85% of its expected life and capacity is < 100% of the manufacturer's rating, the Surveillance Frequency is reduced to 12 months. However, if the battery shows no degradation but has reached 85% of its expected life, the Surveillance Frequency is only reduced to 24 months for batteries that retain capacity 100% of the manufacturer's ratings. Degradation is indicated, according to IEEE-450 (Ref. 1), when the battery capacity drops by more than 10% relative to its capacity on the previous performance test or when it is below 90% of the manufacturer's rating.

These Frequencies are consistent with the recommendations in IEEE-450 (Ref. 1).

This SR is modified by a Note. The reason for the Note is that performing the Surveillance would perturb the electrical distribution system and challenge safety systems. Credit may be taken for unplanned events that satisfy this SR.

No Change - Provided for Inverters - Operating Information Only B 3.8.7 BASES ACTIONS A.1 (continued)

Required Action A.1 allows 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to fix the inoperable inverter and return it to service. The 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> limit is based upon engineering judgment, taking into consideration the time required to repair an inverter and the additional risk to which the unit is exposed because of the inverter inoperability. This has to be balanced against the risk of an immediate shutdown, along with the potential challenges to safety systems such a shutdown might entail. When the 120 VAC vital bus is powered from its Class 1E constant voltage transformer, it is relying upon interruptible AC electrical power sources (offsite and onsite). The uninterruptible inverter source to the 120 VAC vital buses is the preferred source for powering instrumentation trip setpoint devices.

B.1 With two inverters in the same train inoperable, the remaining inverters are capable of supporting the minimum safety functions necessary to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe condition, assuming no single failure. The overall reliability is reduced, however, because a single failure in one of the two remaining inverters could result in the minimum ESF functions not being supported. Therefore, one of the inverters must be restored to OPERABLE status within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

The 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> Completion Time is consistent with that allowed for an inoperable train of 120 VAC vital buses.

C.1 and C.2 If the inoperable Train 1 or Train 2 inverters cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the required Completion Time, the unit must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the unit must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

D.1 and D.2 If any Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition A, B, or C is not met, the unit must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the unit must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required unit conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.

E.1 Condition E corresponds to a level of degradation in the electrical distribution system that causes a required safety function to be lost.

When more than one inoperable electrical power distribution subsystem results in the loss of a required function, the plant is in a condition outside the accident analysis. Therefore, no additional time is justified for continued operation. LCO 3.0.3 must be entered immediately to commence a controlled shutdown.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.9.1 REQUIREMENTS This Surveillance verifies that the required AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution systems are functioning properly, with the correct circuit breaker (which includes all types of circuit breaking devices) alignment. The correct breaker alignment, including tie breakers open between redundant buses, ensures the appropriate separation and independence of the electrical divisions is maintained, and the appropriate voltage is available to each required bus. The verification of proper voltage availability on the buses ensures that the required voltage is readily available for motive as well as control functions for critical system loads connected to these buses. The 7 day Frequency takes into account the redundant capability of the AC, DC, and AC vital bus electrical power distribution subsystems, and other indications available in the control room that alert the operator to subsystem malfunctions.

Provided for Information Only Boron Concentration B 3.9.1 BASES ACTIONS A.1 (continued) volume in the RCS or the refueling canal is less than its limit, all operations involving positive reactivity additions must be suspended immediately.

Suspension of positive reactivity additions shall not preclude moving a component to a safe position. Operations that individually add limited positive reactivity (e.g., temperature fluctuations from inventory addition or temperature control fluctuations), but when combined with all other operations affecting core reactivity (e.g., intentional boration) result in overall net negative reactivity addition, are not precluded by this action.

A.2 In addition to immediately suspending positive reactivity additions, action to restore the concentration must be initiated immediately.

In determining the required combination of boration flow rate and concentration, there is no unique Design Basis Event that must be satisfied. The only requirement is to restore the boron concentration to its required value as soon as possible. In order to raise the boron concentration as soon as possible, the operator should begin boration with the best source available for unit conditions.

Once action has been initiated, it must be continued until the boron concentration is restored. The restoration time depends on the amount of boron that must be injected to reach the required concentration.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.9.1.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR ensures the coolant boron concentration in the RCS, and connected portions of the refueling canal is within the COLR limits. The boron concentration of the coolant in each required volume is determined periodically by chemical analysis. Prior to re-connecting portions of the refueling canal to the RCS, this SR must be met per SR 3.0.4. If any dilution activity has occurred while the canal was disconnected from the RCS, this SR ensures the correct boron concentration prior to communication with the RCS.

The 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> Frequency is reasonable, considering the low probability of a change in core reactivity during this time period.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.9.2.1 REQUIREMENTS SR 3.9.2.1 is the performance of a CHANNEL CHECK, which is a comparison of the parameter indicated on one channel to a similar parameter on other channels. It is based on the assumption that the two indication channels should be consistent with core conditions. Changes in fuel loading and core geometry can result in significant differences between source range channels, but each channel should be consistent with its local conditions.

The Frequency of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> is consistent with the CHANNEL CHECK Frequency specified similarly for the same instruments in LCO 3.3.9.

Insert 3 SR 3.9.2.2 SR 3.9.2.2 is the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION every 18 months. This SR is modified by a Note stating that neutron detectors are excluded from the CHANNEL CALIBRATION. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the RPS source range channel is a complete check and re-adjustment of the channels, from the preamplifier input to the indicators, and for the PAM source range channels is a complete check of the instrument channel. Operating experience has shown these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed at the 18 month Frequency.

With DHR loop requirements not met, the potential exists for the coolant to boil and release radioactive gas to the containment atmosphere.

Performing the actions stated above ensures that all containment penetrations are either closed or can be closed so that the dose limits are not exceeded.

SURVEILLANCE SR 3.9.5.1 REQUIREMENTS This Surveillance demonstrates that one DHR loop is in operation. The flow rate (i.e., 2800 gpm) is determined by the flow rate necessary to provide efficient decay heat removal capability and to prevent thermal and boron stratification in the core.

In addition, during operation of the DHR loop with the water level in the vicinity of the reactor vessel nozzles, the DHR loop flow rate determination must also consider the DHR pump suction requirement.

Insert 3 SR 3.9.5.2 Verification that the required pump is OPERABLE ensures that an additional DHR pump can be placed in operation, if needed, to maintain decay heat removal and reactor coolant circulation.

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 2 of 16 DOCUMENTATION OF DAVIS-BESSE PRA TECHNICAL ADEQUACY 1.0 OVERVIEW The implementation of the Surveillance Frequency Control Program (SFCP) (also referred to as Technical Specifications Initiative 5b) at Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station will follow the guidance provided by Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) in NEI 04-10, Revision 1 (Reference 1) in evaluating proposed surveillance test interval (STI; also referred to as surveillance frequency) changes.

The following steps of the risk-informed STI revision process are common to proposed changes to all STIs within the proposed licensee-controlled program:

  • Each proposed STI revision is reviewed to determine whether there are any commitments made (e.g., Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited (NEIL), manufacturer requirements) that may prohibit changing the interval. If there are no related commitments, or the commitments may be changed using a commitment change process, then evaluation of the STI revision would proceed.

If a commitment exists and the commitment change process does not permit the change, then the proposed STI revision cannot be implemented. Only after receiving approval to change the commitment could a proposed STI revision proceed.

  • A qualitative analysis is performed for each proposed STI revision that involves several considerations as explained in NEI 04-10, Revision 1.
  • Each proposed STI revision is reviewed by an Integrated Decision-Making Panel (IDP).

If the IDP approves the STI revision, the change is documented, implemented, and made available for future audits by the NRC. If the IDP does not approve the STI revision, the STI value is left unchanged.

  • Performance monitoring is conducted as recommended by the IDP. In some cases, no additional monitoring may be necessary beyond that already conducted under the Maintenance Rule. The performance monitoring helps to confirm that no failure mechanisms related to the revised test interval become important enough to alter the information provided for the justification of the interval changes.
  • The IDP is responsible for periodic review of performance monitoring results. If it is determined that the time interval between successive performances of a surveillance test is a factor in the unsatisfactory performance of the surveillance, the IDP will adjust the STI as needed to provide reasonable assurance of continued satisfactory performance.
  • In addition to the above steps, the Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) is used, when possible, to quantify the effect of a proposed individual STI revision compared to acceptance criteria in Figure 2 of NEI 04-10, Revision 1. Neither the current Davis-Besse PRA model nor the industry generic failure data, for which they are based upon, distinguish between the time-related failure contribution (i.e.; the standby time-related failure rate) and the cyclic demand-related failure contribution (i.e., the demand stress failure probability) for standby component failure modes (e.g., NUREG/CR-6928 assumes these failures are on a demand basis). Since this distinction is not made, FENOC, in accordance with NEI 04-10, Revision 1, will assume that all failures are time-related in calculating the risk impact of a proposed STI adjustment, to obtain the maximum test-limited risk contribution. If a further breakdown of failure probability is

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 3 of 16 required to remove conservatism from the risk impact calculation of a proposed surveillance frequency change, it shall be justified through data and/or engineering analyses. Furthermore, FENOC will abide by the cautionary sentence in NEI 04-10, Revision 1, Step 8, third paragraph, which states, "...caution should be taken in dividing the failure probability into time-related and cyclic demand-related contributions because the test-limited risk can be underestimated when only part of the failure rate is considered as being time-related while this may not be the case."

Also, the cumulative impact of all risk-informed STI revisions on all applicable PRA evaluations (i.e., internal events, external events and shutdown) is compared to the risk acceptance criteria as delineated in NEI 04-10, Revision 1. For those cases where the STI cannot be modeled in the plant PRA (or where a particular PRA model does not exist for a given hazard group), a qualitative or bounding analysis is performed to provide justification for the acceptability of the proposed test interval change.

The NEI 04-10, Revision 1, methodology endorses the guidance provided in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.200, Revision 1, An Approach for Determining the Technical Adequacy of Probabilistic Risk Assessment Results for Risk-Informed Activities (Reference 2). The guidance in RG 1.200 indicates that the following steps should be followed when performing PRA assessments:

1. Identify the parts of the PRA used to support the application.
  • Structures, systems and components (SSCs), operational characteristics affected by the application and how these are implemented in the PRA model.
  • A definition of the acceptance criteria used for the application.
2. Identify the scope of risk contributors addressed by the PRA model.
  • If not full scope (i.e., internal and external), identify appropriate compensatory measures or provide bounding arguments to address the risk contributors not addressed by the model.
3. Summarize the risk assessment methodology used to assess the risk of the application.
  • Include how the PRA model was modified to appropriately model the risk impact of the change request.
4. Demonstrate the Technical Adequacy of the PRA.
  • Identify plant changes (design or operational practices) that have been incorporated at the site but are not yet in the PRA model and justify why the change does not impact the PRA results used to support the application.
  • Document peer review findings and observations (F&Os) that are applicable to the parts of the PRA required for the application, and for those that have not yet been addressed justify why the significant contributors would not be impacted.
  • Document that the parts of the PRA used in the decision are consistent with applicable standards endorsed by RG 1.200. Provide justification to show that where specific requirements in the standard are not adequately met, it will not unduly impact the results.
  • Identify key assumptions and approximations relevant to the results used in the decision-making process.

Item 2 satisfies the requirements of RG 1.200, Revision 1, Section 3.2 Scope of Risk Contributors Addressed by the PRA Model. Item 3 satisfies one of the requirements of RG 1.200, Revision 1, Section 4.2 Licensee Submittal Documentation. Item 4 satisfies the requirements of RG 1.200, Revision 1, Section 3.3 Demonstration of Technical Adequacy of the PRA, and the remaining requirements of RG 1.200, Revision 1, Section 4.2.

Because of the broad scope of potential Initiative 5b applications and the fact that the impact of such assumptions differs from application to application, the issues encompassed in Items 1 through 3 will be covered with the preparation of each individual PRA assessment made in support of the individual STI requests. The purpose of the remaining portion of this appendix is to address the requirements identified in Item 4 above.

2.0 TECHNICAL ADEQUACY OF THE PRA MODEL The Davis-Besse PRA model of record, PRA-DB1-AL-R06, and supporting documentation have been maintained as a living program, with updates directed every other refueling cycle (approximately every four years) to reflect the as-built, as-operated plant. The PRA-DB1-AL-R06 PRA model currently includes internal events, internal flooding, and seismic events. Level 1 and Level 2 results are provided via this model. The Fire PRA model, which is based on the internal events model, is also being developed for implementation at Davis-Besse to support risk-informed applications and will be subject to the same configuration controls described below.

Interim updates may be prepared and issued in between regularly scheduled model updates on an as needed basis. Typically, an interim revision would be used for an update that would cause a change in core damage frequency of greater than 10 percent, a change in large early release frequency of greater than 20 percent, or for changes that could significantly impact a risk-informed application. Interim models may also be released following focused peer reviews once the associated findings and suggestions have been addressed. (Note that under the FENOC PRA Program, if a portion of the model has been upgraded to satisfy the PRA Standard (Internal Flooding models at Davis-Besse, for example), that portion of the model will not be released until after a focused peer review has been conducted and any findings and suggestions have been addressed.)

The Davis-Besse model is highly detailed and includes a wide variety of initiating events, modeled systems, operator actions, and common cause events. The PRA quantification process used is based on the large linked fault tree methodology, which is a well-known and accepted methodology in the industry. The model is maintained and quantified using the EPRI Integrated Risk Technologies (IRT) suite of software programs.

FENOC employs a multi-faceted, structured approach for establishing and maintaining the technical adequacy and plant fidelity of the PRA models for all FENOC nuclear generation sites, including Davis-Besse. This approach includes both a proceduralized PRA maintenance and update process, as well as the use of self-assessments and independent peer reviews.

2.1 PRA Maintenance and Update The latest update to the Davis-Besse PRA occurred on February 15, 2019 with the effective reference model, PRA-DB1-AL-R06, being released at that time. There have been no interim updates to the model since its release.

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 5 of 16 The FENOC risk management process ensures that the Davis-Besse PRA model is an accurate reflection of the as-built, and as-operated plant. This process is defined in the FENOC PRA Program, which consists of a governing procedure NOPM-CC-6000, Probabilistic Risk Assessment Program, and subordinate implementation procedures.

Procedure NOPM-CC-6000 serves as the higher tier procedure and establishes the FENOC PRA Program and provides administrative requirements for the maintenance and upgrade of the FENOC PRA models and risk-informed applications. The overall objective of the PRA Program is to provide technically adequate PRA models such that the requirements set forth in RG 1.200 are satisfied for use in risk-informed applications.

Working in conjunction with the above procedure, NOBP-CC-6001, Probabilistic Risk Assessment Model Management establishes the administrative and technical requirements for the maintenance and upgrade of the FENOC PRA models.

2.2 Plant Changes Not Yet Incorporated into the PRA Model A procedurally controlled process is used to maintain configuration control of the Davis-Besse PRA model, data, and software. In addition to model control, administrative mechanisms are in place to assure that plant modifications, procedure changes relevant to the PRA, changes to calculations, and industry operating experience (OE) are appropriately screened, dispositioned, and tracked for incorporation into the PRA model if that change would impact the model. As part of this process, if any proposed changes are identified, which are perceived to significantly increase or decrease risk, they are incorporated into a working model (given their known level of detail at the time), and the results are compared to the effective model of record to identify if the proposed change should be pursued. These processes help to assure that the Davis-Besse PRA reflects the as-built, as-operated plant within the limitations of the PRA methodology, and that the significance of future expected changes or enhancements are understood and managed.

The interfacing process involves an ongoing solicitation of review of any changes that may have an impact upon the PRA model. Any changes to the PRA model or its supporting documentation are captured within a tracking database for PRA implementation tracking and future disposition. Additionally, the PRA staff provides the top risk significant operator actions to the Operations Training staff, for simulator validation to ensure that the current human reliability modeling reflects actual expected response and timing.

As part of the PRA evaluation for each STI change request, a review of open items which may impact the risk analysis will be performed and an assessment of the impact on the results of the application will be made prior to presenting the results of the risk analysis to the IDP. If a non-trivial impact is expected, then this may include the performance of additional sensitivity studies or model changes to confirm the impact on the risk analysis.

2.3 Applicability of Peer Review Findings and Observations (F&Os)

The technical acceptability of the Davis-Besse PRA models has been demonstrated by the peer review process. The purpose of the industry PRA peer review process is to provide a method for establishing the technical capability and adequacy of a PRA relative to expectations of knowledgeable practitioners, using a set of guidance that establishes a set of minimum requirements. PRA peer reviews continue to be performed as PRAs are upgraded to ensure the ability to support risk-informed applications and has proven to be a valuable process for establishing technical adequacy of nuclear power plant PRAs.

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 6 of 16 Internal Events PRA The Davis-Besse Internal Events PRA model has been peer reviewed in accordance with the guidance and NRC-endorsed standards in effect at the time of each of the reviews as follows:

  • April 2008 - full scope peer review addressing all technical elements excluding large early release and internal flooding based on RG 1.200 Rev. 1 and ASME RA-Sb-2005 (Reference 3)
  • July 2012 - focus scope peer review addressing technical element internal flooding based on RG 1.200 Rev. 2 and ASME/ANS-RA-Sa-2009
  • October 2017 - CCF focus scope peer review for method upgrade identified during independent assessment
  • October 2017 - independent assessment of F&Os and closeout review based on Appendix X of NEI 05-04 (Reference 6); any re-assessed SRs were based on RG 1.200 Rev. 2 and ASME/ANS-RA-Sa-2009 Each of the above reviews are discussed below.

The most recent full-scope peer review of the Davis-Besse Internal Events PRA model was the April 2008 gap assessment against the ASME RA-Sb-2005, "Standard for Probabilistic Risk Assessment for Nuclear Power Plant Applications," and RG 1.200, Revision 1. Typically, a gap assessment is performed to review the differences between two versions of the PRA ASME standard. However, the purpose of the 2008 gap assessment was to assess the current status of the internal events PRA with regard to the supporting requirements (SRs), assign an indication of the significance of the gaps and F&Os identified (levels A - D), describe the scope of effort needed to close the gap and F&O to achieve capability category II of the SR, and estimate the resources necessary to accomplish closure of the gap and F&O. Thus, this gap assessment is far more encompassing than a typical peer review of the PRA model. All requirements for conducting a peer review were met.

The review team consisted of five independent reviewers qualified per NEI 05-04, "Process for Performing Follow-on PRA Peer Reviewers Using the ASME PRA Standard," January 2005, and they evaluated the current status of the PRA against the requirements in ASME RA-Sb-2005 and RG 1.200, Revision 1.

The review was a full scope Internal Events Level 1 review, excluding large early release and internal flooding, but covering initiating events, accident sequences, success criteria, system analysis, human reliability analysis, data analysis, quantification and results, and the maintenance and update technical areas of the ASME RA-Sb-2005 PRA standard. If the PRA model and documentation did not meet at least capability category II of ASME RA-Sb-2005, an F&O was identified.

Because the peer review in 2008 predated the current RG 1.200 endorsed internal events standard, a comparison was made between the ASME/ANS RA-Sb-2005 standard used for the peer review and the endorsed ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009 standard. For the majority of the SRs, the wording was unchanged, or the intent remained the same. There were no changes to the SRs that were found to have an impact on the internal events PRA model. Therefore, the 2008 peer review and the review of the updated PRA standard combined assure the current internal

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 7 of 16 events PRA model satisfies capability category II of the current RG 1.200 endorsed internal events standard ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009.

The 2008 gap assessment did not review the technical areas of large early release and internal flooding. These two technical areas had separate focused scope peer reviews in 2011 (LERF) and 2012 (internal flooding) against the relevant portions of the ASME/ANS-RA-Sa-2009 standard.

All F&Os originating from the internal events, large early release, and internal flooding peer reviews were addressed using FENOC's PRA program to disposition each individual F&O, thus ensuring the model satisfies the PRA standard requirements.

The October 2017 independent assessment and closeout review addressed FENOCs disposition to all F&Os from the three peer reviews discussed above. The review was conducted consistent with NEI 05-04/07-12/12-13 Appendix X, Fact & Observation (F&O)

Close-Out with Independent Assessment. Each member of the independent assessment team met the ASME standard criteria for independence from the Davis-Besse PRA and the relevant peer reviewer qualifications for the F&Os being reviewed. Each F&O documented closure was reviewed by the team to determine if the F&O had been adequately addressed and can therefore be closed out using the appropriate parts of the ASME/ANS-RA-Sa-2009 PRA standard. The relevant SRs were also re-assessed for cases where the peer review identified the SR as not meeting capability category II. The independent assessment for internal events PRA closed all F&Os and determined each associated SR to meet at least capability category II.

During the independent assessment, the F&O dispositions for two SRs (SY-B4 and DA-D5) related to common cause failure modeling were determined by the independent assessment team to be an upgrade, rather than an update. A focused scope peer review was held, and the team concluded that these two SRs were met to at least capability category II with no new findings.

Ultimately, the independent assessment and subsequent focused scope peer review for internal events PRA closed all but one of the F&Os and determined that all but one of the supporting requirements met capability category II or better. Finding SY-B11, associated with supporting requirement SY-B10 was found to remain open. SR SY-B10 requires that those systems that are required for initiation and actuation of a system be identified. Because the PRA model justifies excluding some actuation logic due to negligible contribution for the emergency diesel generator, instead of explicitly modeling this logic, this SR was concluded to meet capability category I only, shown in Table 1 below (contained in Reference 15). Since NEI 94-01 endorses using PRA models conformed to capability category I of the ASME/ANS standard, the Davis-Besse PRA model is of sufficient technical adequacy to use for this Type A test analysis.

However, the F&O remains open, since it is desired that all SRs meet capability category II.

Therefore, each SR of the internal events standard other than SY-B10 has been determined to meet at least capability category II by the peer review team or the independent assessment team. SR SY-B10 meets capability category I, with an open F&O to support meeting capability category II. There are no other open F&Os remaining.

Original F&O (Reference 14):

Not all permissives and lockouts checked could be found, specifically UV signal preventing closure of the EDG output breaker and concurrent SFAS 2 signal and UV signal for the sequencer. No justification for not including these does not meet Category I. Not modeling results in Category 2 not being met.

Recommendation to meet CCII: Ensure all permissives and lockouts are modeled.

Utility Provided Closure Basis Information (Reference 14):

As discussed in the EDG system notebook (04-13), although the EDGs receive start signals from C1 (D1) undervoltage relays and on an SFAS Level 2 actuation, these signals are not modeled. If an EDG failed to start due to a failure of the undervoltage signal, operators could still manually start the diesel, and would be directed to do so by procedures. The likelihood that both the automatic signal and operator action fail is much less than the failure rate of the diesel to start, and is therefore not modeled. The SFAS signal is not modeled because the diesels are not needed in an SFAS situation unless an undervoltage exists on their respective bus. Justification provided in the EDG System Notebook, Section 2.

Independent Review Team Assessment:

Justification for not modeling these signals is provided which meets the requirements of CC I. However, this does not meet CC II-III, which requires modeling actuation signals and does not allow justification for excluding. Also, the utility closure basis addressed the EDG actuation logic only. The F&O requires a review for other instances where actuation logic may not have been modeled. As a result, this F&O remains open since the intent of the finding is to provide a path to CC II-III.

SY-B10 NOT MET Met at CC I

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 9 of 16 Fire PRA The Davis-Besse fire PRA model was peer reviewed by the PWR Owners Group in June 2013. The review was performed against the requirements of ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009, Part 4, including Clarifications and Qualifications provided in the NRC endorsement of the Standard contained in Revision 2 to RG 1.200. The peer review was performed using the process defined in NEI 07-12, Revision 1 (Reference 11).

All F&Os originating from the Fire PRA peer review were addressed using FENOC's PRA program to disposition each individual F&O, thus ensuring the model satisfies the PRA standard requirements.

The October 2017 independent assessment and closeout review addressed FENOCs disposition to all F&Os from the Fire PRA peer review. The review was conducted consistent with NEI 05-04/07-12/12-13 Appendix X, Fact & Observation (F&O) Close-Out with Independent Assessment. Each member of the independent assessment team met the ASME standard criteria for independence from the Davis-Besse Fire PRA and the relevant peer reviewer qualifications for the F&Os being reviewed. Each F&O documented closure was reviewed by the team to determine if the F&O had been adequately addressed and can therefore be closed out using the appropriate parts of the ASME/ANS-RA-Sa-2009 PRA standard. The relevant SRs were also re-assessed for cases where the peer review identified the SR as not meeting at least capability category II. The independent assessment for fire PRA determined each associated SR to meet at least capability category II.

During the independent assessment, the F&O dispositions associated with two SRs (PRM-B14 and PRM-B15) related to new accident progressions were determined by the independent assessment team to be an upgrade, rather than an update. In addition, at the request of FENOC, three SRs (CF-A1, CF-A2, and CF-B1) related to DC hot short methodology were requested to be addressed by a focused scope review. A focused scope peer review was held, and the team concluded that these SRs were met to at least capability category II with no new findings.

There were five finding level F&Os which remain open after the independent assessment, which are identified below in Table 2. (Note that the independent assessment also identified a suggestion level F&O to improve the PRA documentation.) The NRC staff has reviewed and accepted the disposition of these open F&Os within the Safety Evaluation (SE) Report for license amendment 298, June 21, 2019, Section 3.4.3 which concludes that the fire PRA is of sufficient technical quality (Reference 13).

F&O ES-A1-01, ES-A1-02, ES-A1-03, and FQ-A1-01 in Table 2 (contained in Reference 14) have been resolved by making appropriate changes to the PRA model as identified in the F&O.

The associated SRs ES-A1 and FQ-A1 continue to be met, as identified in the independent assessment team report.

The remaining F&O ES-D1-01 is identified by the independent assessment team as documentation issue only. SR ES-D1 continues to be met, as identified in the independent assessment team report.

Therefore, each SR of the fire PRA standard has been determined to meet at least capability category II by the peer review team or the independent assessment team. The remaining five open finding level F&Os for the fire PRA have been resolved or involve only a documentation update.

Minor model changes will be required to fully address the MSO scenario.

Examples include:

MSO Scenario 4 - DC control power dependency for RCPs to allow tripping the RCPs from the MCR is not included under Gate Q01-2-3B (So, gates E766 (for DAN) and E748 (for DBN) should be included under gate Q01-2-3B).

The spurious opening of the PORV is modeled under gate R750 which is under gate Q10. Gate Q10 feeds into sequences for a loss of RCS integrity with a failure of injection or recirculation. Gate Q11 feeds into sequences for a loss of feedwater, loss of RCS integrity, and a failure of injection or recirculation. In those sequences the PORV is assumed to open to relieve the RCS pressure increase due to a loss of feedwater. Review of the logic indicates that R750 should also feed into gate Q11, since a spurious signal holding the PORV open after the pressure release is a valid failure mode.

Thus, the current modeling does not properly address the MSO in cases where feedwater is lost, but this can be remedied by placing R750 as an input to gate Q11.

Basis For Significance:

Improper modeling of scenarios could lead to inaccurate quantification results and potential misapplication of results.

Possible Resolution:

Correct the identified modeling issues and address similar issues that may exist.

ES-A1-02 ES F PRM-B10 Discussion of Issue Some of the logic gates referenced in the Tables 4 through 10 in the MSO Report (ARS-DB-11-0005) do not include all the support systems.

MSO Scenario 4 - DC control power dependency for RCPs to allow tripping the RCPs from the MCR is not included under Gate Q01-2-3B. Gates E766 (for DAN) and E748 (for DBN) should be included under gate Q01-2-3B.

MSO Scenario 16 - Failure of power to the associated SFAS cabinets (from panels Y1 and Y3, or Y2 and Y4) should be conservatively modeled to fail the diesel due to failure of the sequencer. This is not currently in the PRA model.

Basis For Significance:

Possible Resolution:

Add the required support system dependencies.

ES-A1-03 ES F PRM-B10 Discussion of Issue A review of Tables 4 through 10 in the MSO Report (ARS-DB-11-0005) and the DB Fire PRA fault tree model indicate that some pseudo logic was used to capture cable impacts in lieu of detailed logic modeling.

Examples include:

MSO Scenario 4 - The cables from the DC busses that supply control power to the RCP breakers are included in the cable selection for the breakers.

MSO Scenario 46 - The cables associated with the sequencer were traced.

The cables include the cabling from the power supply busses to the SFAS cabinets, as well as control cabling to the EDGs and C1 and D1 busses. The cables were associated with components SXSEQ1SEQ1 (for SFAS channels 1 and 3) and SXSEQ2SEQ2 (for SFAS channels 2 and 4) in the SAFE software and level 1 failure reports, and were mapped to EDG 1 and EDG 2 Failures to start in FRANX, respectively. Since the complimentary channels were bundled together in this mapping, it will conservatively fail an EDG if the power cable to only one SFAS cabinet is impacted by the fire.

Basis For Significance:

Incomplete mapping of fire impacted cables could underestimate the MSO impact.

Possible Resolution:

Explicitly model support system dependencies or confirm that the necessary cables have been captured under the pseudo logic.

ES-D1-01 ES F PRM-B10 Discussion of Issue Some of the logic gates referenced in the Tables 4 through 10 in the MSO Report (ARS-DB-11-0005) do not properly address the essence of the MSO scenario. Minor model changes will be required to fully address the MSO scenario.

Examples include:

MSO Scenarios 18 and 19 - This MSO references gate R700, which does not address spurious PORV opening. The correct gate should have been gate R750.

The correct gates should have been gates M108 and M118.

Basis For Significance:

This is a documentation issue which could introduce uncertainties about the completeness of the MSO analysis.

Possible Resolution:

Update the MSO documentation to properly reflect the model elements that address the MSO issue.

FQ-A1-01 FQ F CF-A1, CS-A2 Discussion of Issue During a review of MSO Scenario 18 related to spurious operation of a pressurizer PORV, it was identified that a spurious operation value of 0.29 was applied to BE RRZRC2AS-2SUUTSAG.

The basis for spurious operation probability (0.29) was provided as It is an ungrounded DC control circuit for a Solenoid Operated valve, and uses the mean value from NUREG/CR-7150 Table 5-2, row 1 column 6 (Aggregate of all failure modes).

That value is for ungrounded DC double break circuits (thermoset). It was identified that, based on E52B Sh. 13 that only the M and Q cables are associated with a double break design and that the valve control circuit used to energize the 4 relay and open the valve are a single break design, and that, as a minimum, the P and the M cables are thermoset single break circuits and should be using Table 4-1 of NUREG/CR-7150 Volume 2. It appears that inter-cable, intra-cable and GFEHS could result in spurious PORV opening on both of these cables. The aggregate value (mean) for that configuration is 0.56.

Therefore, it appears that values for spurious operation probability for the pressurizer PORVs did not use the correct values from NUREG/CR-7150 in all instances.

Basis For Significance:

Applying incorrect values to circuit failure probabilities could potentially affect fire risk quantification results, depending upon the specific fire scenarios.

Possible Resolution:

Review the PORV circuitry to ensure the single break and double break circuitry is correct in the Detailed Circuit analysis and circuit failure mode likelihood analysis.

Ensure these results are accurately included in the Fire PRA model. Review the circuit failure likelihood analysis results for other unique types of failure modes.

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 13 of 16 Seismic PRA The Davis-Besse seismic PRA model was peer reviewed by the PWR Owners Group peer review program in July 2014. The review was performed against the requirements of ASME/ANS RA-Sa-2009, Part 5, including Clarifications and Qualifications provided in the NRC endorsement of the Standard contained in Revision 2 to RG 1.200. The peer review was performed using the process defined in NEI 12-13, Revision 0 (Reference 12).

All F&Os originating from the Seismic PRA peer review were addressed using FENOC's PRA program to disposition each individual F&O, thus ensuring the model satisfies the PRA standard requirements.

The October 2017 independent assessment and closeout review addressed FENOCs disposition to all F&Os from the Seismic PRA peer review. The review was conducted consistent with NEI 05-04/07-12/12-13 Appendix X, Fact & Observation (F&O) Close-Out with Independent Assessment. Each member of the independent assessment team met the ASME standard criteria for independence from the Davis-Besse Seismic PRA and the relevant peer reviewer qualifications for the F&Os being reviewed. Each F&O documented closure was reviewed by the team to determine if the F&O had been adequately addressed and can therefore be closed out using the appropriate parts of the ASME/ANS-RA-Sa-2009 PRA standard. The relevant SRs were also re-assessed for cases where the peer review identified the SR as not meeting capability category II. The independent assessment for seismic PRA closed all F&Os and determined each associated SR to meet at least capability category II.

During the independent assessment, the F&O dispositions associated with four SRs (SHA-G1, SHA-H1, SHA-I1, and SPR-E6) related to seismic hazard assessment and large early release analysis, were determined by the independent assessment team to be an upgrade, rather than an update. A focused scope peer review was held, and the team concluded that these SRs were met to at least capability category II with no new findings.

Therefore, each SR of the seismic PRA standard has been determined to meet at least capability category II by the peer review team or the independent assessment team, and there are no remaining open F&Os.

2.4 Consistency with Applicable PRA Standards Based on the peer reviews, independent assessment of F&O resolutions, the focused scope peer reviews, and the disposition of the remaining five open findings for the fire PRA, FENOC concludes that the current Davis-Besse internal events, fire, and seismic PRA models conform to capability category II of ASME RA-Sb-2009, ASME/ANS Standard for Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Nuclear Power Plant Applications as endorsed by RG 1.200, Revision 2 with the exception of SY-B10, which meets capability category I. This meets the NEI 04-10, Revision 1, requirements for PRA technical adequacy.

2.5 Identification of Key Assumptions The NEI 04-10 process is a risk-informed process with the PRA model results providing one of the inputs to the IDP to determine if an STI change is acceptable. The NEI 04-10 methodology recognizes that a key area of uncertainty for a risk analysis is the standby failure rate utilized in the determination of the STI extension impact. Therefore, the methodology requires the performance of selected sensitivity studies on the standby failure rate of the component(s) of interest for the STI assessment.

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 14 of 16 The results of the standby failure rate sensitivity study, plus the results of any additional sensitivity studies identified during the performance of the reviews as outlined in Section 2.2 above, will be assessed for their potential impacts for each STI change assessment where refined analyses are required. It is also noted that key assumptions may differ based on the system being considered for an STI change. Therefore, for each assessment of the PRA model, assumptions and key sources of uncertainty will be reviewed, key assumptions for a particular risk analysis will be identified, and the impact of these key assumptions on the risk insights will be assessed. These assessments will be included in the results of the risk analysis reviewed by the IDP.

3.0 EXTERNAL EVENTS CONSIDERATIONS The NEI 04-10 methodology evaluates the potential impact on risk due to fires, seismic, other external events, and from shutdown conditions. NEI 04-10 allows for STI change evaluations to be performed in the absence of quantifiable PRA models for these hazards. For those cases where the STI cannot be modeled in the plant PRA (or where a particular PRA model does not exist for a given hazard group), a qualitative or bounding analysis is performed to provide justification for the acceptability of the proposed STI change.

External hazards were evaluated in the Davis-Besse Individual Plant Examination of External Events (IPEEE) submittal in response to the NRC IPEEE Program of Generic Letter 88-20, Supplement 4 (Reference 7). The IPEEE program was a one-time review of external hazard risk and was limited in its purpose to the identification of potential plant vulnerabilities and the understanding of associated severe accident risks. The NRC transmitted to FENOC on February 8, 2001 their review and Staff Evaluation Report of the Davis-Besse IPEEE submittal (Reference 8).

Fire Risk The internal fire events were addressed in the IPEEE by using the Fire-Induced Vulnerability Evaluation (FIVE) methodology supplemented by PRA methods for four compartments which did not screen below the FIVE compartment-specific core damage frequency. The FIVE results will be used, consistent with NEI 04-10, to assess fire risk insights by qualitative consideration of the potential impact of the fire hazard.

Davis-Besse is transitioning to NFPA 805, and the NRC staff has issued the Safety Evaluation (SE) Report for license amendment 298, June 21, 2019, Section 3.4.3, which concludes that the fire PRA is of sufficient technical quality (Reference 13). Until NFPA 805 is fully implemented at Davis-Besse, the Fire PRA model will only be used for insights for the determination of acceptability of fire risk impacts associated with changes to STIs to supplement the qualitative insights from the IPEEE analysis. After implementing NFPA 805 at Davis-Besse, the Fire PRA model will become effective and be used for the determination of acceptability of fire risk impacts associated with changes to STIs consistent with NEI 04-10.

Seismic Risk The Davis-Besse Seismic PRA model is integrated with the effective PRA model, PRA-DB1-AL-R06, and will be used for the determination of acceptability of seismic risk impacts associated with changes to STIs.

High Winds, Floods, and Other External Events High winds, floods, and other external hazards were evaluated in the IPEEE by using a progressive screening approach of Section 5 of NUREG-1407 (Reference 9). No unique

Documentation of Davis-Besse PRA Technical Adequacy Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 15 of 16 vulnerabilities were identified, and all hazards were screened as low risk. Insights from this evaluation will be used, consistent with NEI 04-10, to qualitatively analyze the risk impacts of these hazards associated with changes to STIs.

4.0 SHUTDOWN EVENTS CONSIDERATIONS The Davis-Besse PRA does not have a low power/shutdown PRA model. Consistent with NEI 04-10, a qualitative evaluation of shutdown risk impacts associated with changes to STIs will be conducted using the existing defense-in-depth shutdown safety assessment which is based on the principles contained in NUMARC 91-06 (Reference 10).

5.0

SUMMARY

The requirements for quantitative and qualitative risk assessments to support implementation of the Surveillance Frequency Control Program delineated in NEI 04-10, Revision 1, are met for Davis-Besse based on the technical adequacy of the internal events, internal flooding, fire, and seismic PRA models. This provides the capability to quantitatively assess internal events, internal flooding, and seismic risk due to changes in the STI, and by the qualitative assessments of fire and other external hazards as described.
