Subject:

CESSAR Startup Testing

Dear Mr. Eisenhut:

During preparation for startup of the first System 80" plant, C-E has noted minor modifications which could be made to CESSAR Chapter 14 to facilitate an improved testing procedure. These changes affect only tests performed after fuel loading and do not in any way affect CESSAR's compliance with NRC requirements. These changes, along with a description of each change, are provided in the attachment for NRC review. These changes will be incorporated in a subsequent amendment to CESSAR.

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to call me or Mr. T. J.

Collier of my staf f at (203) 285-5215.

Very truly yours, COMBUSTION ENGINEERING, INC.

,14.2.7.1.1: RG 1.68, AppendixT A, Section B.1.c' (page 14.2-5)

Deleting the cold (260 F) partial flow Ct:A drops .is consistent with experience

-in previous startups, which showed that the hot, full-flow drops were more

' limiting. Low temperature criticality is allowed orly on first-of-a-kind plants,' and then only-for short periods of time under close supervision. CEA

.insertability at cold conditions is still demonstrated during post-core hot functional testing, providing assurance that the CEAs can be tripped, if necessary.

14.2.10.1: Initial Fuel Loading (page 14.2-7a)

The containment evacuation alarm described in the deleted material will not be provided, nor is there any requirement for such a device. Should a situation exist requiring evacuation, the operator could (in the case of Palo Verde is

. . required to) utilize the site public address system and the plant evacuation

' alarm. As stated in this section, audible count rate. indicators w e ll be provided in containment.

14.2.12.3.1: PCHFT Controlling Document (page 14.2-69) r

. Item 2.1 reflects the possibility that some of the pre-core tests may be E postponed to, or rerun during, the post-core hot functional testing. The other changes reflect how the instrumentation is to be_ calibrated.

-14.2.12.3.4: Post-Core CEDM Performance (page 14.2-72)

The-test method is updated to reflect the fact that no cold drops are to be

-performed. Verification of position indication and alarms is not temperature or schedule dependent and can be accomplished at any time, as the change reflects. The change to the required data reflects the fact that the RCS conditions are only a concern 'for this test during the rod drops.

14.2.12.4.2: CEA Symetry and Coupling Test (pages 14.2-77a,14.2-78)

The CEA coupling test is deleted because of a difference in the System 80 design and previous C-E designs. In previous C-E designs, CEAs and extension shafts were uncoupled during each refueling outage (CEAs remained in the core). In the System _80 design, CEAs and extension shafts are not uncoupled (CEAs are withdrawn into the upper guide structure).

' CHAPTER 14 0F CESSAR-F Page 2 14.2.12.4.4:- Shutdown an'd ' Regulating CEA Group Worts Tests (page 14.2-79)

Testing on the fi.rst-of-a-kind plant has been modified to perform the net

' shutdown measurement at low temperature (approximately 320 F) rather than at HZP conditions. This change is advantageous for the following reasons:

(1) The measurement provides direct verification of the net shutdown worth at relatively cold conditions (shutdown margin following a cooldown).

This measurement can be readily done on the (1rst-of-a-kind unit where a low temperature test _ program is performed.

(2) L'ess RCS boron dilution is required.

(3)~ Potential cooldown events during testing while in a highly rodded configuration would have less of a consequence.

The remaining information; e.g., CEA group worths, obtained with the revised measurement approach is essentially equivalent to that obtained with the -

original test approach. For follow-on plants, the net shutdown measurement is to be performed at 565*F, since low temperature testing is not performed.

14.2.12.4.7: Pseudo Dropped and Ejected CEA Worth Test (page 14.2-83)

The wording is changed to provide flexibility in the testing methodology. The measurements of CEA worths via dilution (CEA insertion), boration (CEA withdrawal) or CEA compensation provide equivalent information. The test method 1s reworded to clarify the conditions at which testing will bg performed.

14.2.12.5.3: Unit Load Transient Test (page 14.2-87)

The test method is updated to reflect the conditions unaer which the test will

,be conducted, including the limiting factors.

14.2.12.5.4: Control Systems Checkout Test (pages 14.2-87,14.2-88)

The test method is reworded to clarify the conditions at whiich testing will be performed. Feedwater temperature is added to the list of monitored parameters

'(4.1.7). The acceptance criteria are renrded to clarify the criteria to be used for evaluating steady. state performance and transient responses.

14.2.12.5.6: Turbine Trip (pages 14.2-89, 14.2-89a ) '

-The Turbine Trip Test and the Unit Load Rejection Test lead to essentially the same plant response. Rather than perform redundant tests, the turbine trip l- test will be performed with the Reactor Power Cutback System (RPCS) not in-service while the unit load rejection test is performed with the RPCS in-

monitored,to provide supplemental information-but are not evaluated against
specific acceptance-criteria. The Acceptance Criteria section is' reworded to specify the method;to be used for evaluating the parameters against which acceptance criteria are applied. Since non-safety parameters monitored during the test:are not evaluated against specific acceptance criteria, .the second

. performed atiorcabove 50% power. The prerequisite that testing at the 80%

-plateau be completed is not. required. The acceptance criteria is reworded to Jeliminate the phrase "throughout-core life", since this requirement cannot be-demonstrated directly from the test results. The test data, in conjunction with design analyses, demonstrates that xenon oscillations are readily controllable throughout life. .

The rewording of. the. acceptance criteria clarifies the procedure to be used for evaluating'the test results. The rewording does not change'the intended acceptance criteria.

14.2.12.5.14: Steady State Core Performance Test (pages 14.2-96,14.,2-97)

The objective is reworded to coincide with the primary reason for performing

, theitest.= Objective 1.1 is deleted since specific acceptance criteria are not zapplied for this purpose. The Test Method and Data Required sections are

-reworded to more clearly specify the way the test will be ~ performed.

Acceptance Criteria :5.1.is not required as .the:COLSS and'CPC. systems adequately monitor DNBR and LPD limits during power escalation. Acceptance Criteria 5.2 is reworded to specify:that core. peaking factors are also evaluated against specific facceptance criteria.

-The table is modified to be consistent'with the test summaries and to reflect the planned testing approach. -The footnote on the coefficient measurements is added to clarify that the test is performed with CEA movement and must be performed at.a. power level which allows the required CEA motion based on margin considerations.

14.2.5 REVIEW, EVALUATION, AND APPROVAL OF TEST RESULTS  ; !

The development of administrative procedures for review, evaluation and approval of test results is the responsibility of the Applicant. Advice I and consultation will be provided by Combustion Engineering as appropriate.

Test results shall be recorded as perinanent plant records.

14.2.6 TEST RECORDS An official copy of each completed test procedure, including all required I supplemental data, exceptions, conclusions and approval signatures shall be maintair.ed in accordance with the Applicant' administrative controls.

14.2.7 CONFORMANCE OF INITIAL TEST PROGRAMS WITH REGULATORY GUIDES AND INDUSTRY STANDARDS The intent of the following Regulatory Guides will be followed with the noted differences. ,

14.2.7.1 Reg. Guide 1.68 Initial Test Programs for Water-Cooled Reactor Power Plants (Revision 0, 11/73).

The following exceptions and/or clarifications address only significant differences between the System 80 test pregram and the applicable regulatory position. Minor terminology differences, testing not applicable to the c_ . .

plant design, and testing that is part of required surveillance tests will not be addressed. Reference is made to the applicable portion of Regulatory Guide 1.68 (Revision 0, 11/73).

14.2.7.1.1 Reference Appendix A, Section B.I.c.

This section suggests that rod drop times be measured for all control element assemblies (CEAs) at hot and cold full-flow and no-flow conditions, i The CESSAR CEA drop-time testing is consistent with the recommendations of the regulatory guide; however, tests which do not provide meaningful data will be deleted. As outlined in test sunnary 14.2.12.3.4, the CEA drop ,

time testing will consist of:

a.) One drop of each CEA :: ::'f. 1 ' -  ;;. :::2'  : .. _ _ . . _T. : _ . . . [  !

cr ? : :^_: :_2_;.^. ,~ ,.! ...." at hot, full-flow conditions.K b.) Those CEAs falling outside the two-sigma limit for similar CEAs will be dropped three additional times.

c.) Hot no flow scram insertion rod drops will not be perforined for System 80 reactors. C-E has demonstrated that rod drop times under full-flow conditions are more limiting than the drop times under conditions of no-flow.

. and fuel loading operations. Permanently installed radiation monitors display radiation levels in the main control room and will be monitored by licensed operators.

Fuel assemblies, together with inserted components, will be placed in the reactor vessel one at a time according to a previously established and approved sequence which was developed to provide reliable core monitoring with minimum possibility of core mechanical damage. The initial fuel loading procedure will include detailed instructions which will prescribe successive movements of each fuel assembly from its initial position in the storage racks to its final position in the core. The procedures will establish a system and a requirement for verification of each fuel assembly movement prior to proceeding with the next assembly Multiple checks will be made for fuel assembly and inserted component serial numbers at successive transfer points to guard against possible inadvertent exchanges or substitutio l At least two fuel assemblies containing neutron sources will be placed into the core at appropriate specified points in the initial fuel loading procedure to ensure a neutron population large enough for adequate monitoring of the core. As each fuel assembly is loaded, at least two separate inverse count rate plots will be maintained to ensure that the extrapolated inverse count rate ratio behaves as would be expected. In addition, nuclear instrumentation will be monitored to ensure that the "just loaded" fuel assembly does not excessively increase the count rate. The results of each loading step will be reviewed and evaluated before the next prescribed step is started.

14.2.10.1.1 Safe Loading Criteria

?

Criteria for the safe loading of fuel require that loading operations stop immediately if:

a.) The neutron count rate from either temporary nuclear channel unexpectedly doubles during any single loading step, excluding anticipated change due to detector and/or source movement or spatial effects (i.e., fuel assembly coupling source with a detector), or b.) The neutron count race on any individual nuclear channel increases by a factor of five during any single loading step, excluding anticipated changes due to detector and/or source movement or spatial effects (i.e., fuel assembly coupiing source with a detector).  !
