THIRD SET OF INTERROGATORIES TO NRC STAFF

~,

/

' Ohio Citizens for Responsible Energy ("0CRE e

propounds its third set of interrogatories to the NRC Staff, pursuant to the Licensing Board's Memorandum and Order of July 28, 1981 (LBP-81-24, 14 Nhc 175 (1981)).

Statement of Purpose The following interrogatories are designed to determine j

'the Staff's assessment of the potential at PNPP for the type i

of accident described in NUREG-0785 resulting from a pipe break 4

4 to the scram discharge volume and to determine the Staff's regulatory position o'n this problem.

h

i Interrogatories g.

{

3-1.

Does the so-called " hydraulic" solution or fix to the

~

g BWR ATWS problem involve any modification of the SDV system?

If so, describe in detail these modifications 6

as they would be required for PNPP.

3-2.

Does the NRC require temperature, humidity, or radiation i

monitors / detectors at or near the SDV to detect breaks in-the SDV or SDIV?

)

3-3.

Has the Staff-submitted any guidelines or rules requiring.

8205060390 820429 E!

m PDR ADOCM 05000440 O

n

-b pop

s break detection instruments as described in 3-2 above?

3-4.

Has there ever been an SDV pipe break recorded by the

~

NRC?

If so, give salient details.

3-5.

What emergency operating procedures will the NRC require the Applicants to have available in the control room to use in the event of an SDV pipe break?

k 3-6.

Does the NRC require training of reactor operators on responding to SDV pipe breaks? If so, describe such training requirements.

3-7.

Does the Staff currently believe that the isolation of i

the SDV system can be assured in the PNPP design as is?

What modifications, if any, would be needed to assure such isolation?

3-8.

What arethe Staff's esticates of the maximum flow rate through an SDV pipe break in the Perry design?

3-9.

Would water lost through the SDV in 'a break become avail-able for subsequent cooling purposes?

If so, indicate the flow path; i.e.,

from what point to what point would the coolant ultimately pass?

3-10.

If the response to 3-9 above is in'the affirmative, does the rationale include the possibility of that

{

{

water steaming (flashing) at the break point?

[

3-11.

Has the Staff required any modification of the SDV design i

for Applicants' plant?

If so, enumerate and explain any such modifications.

3-12.

Has the Staff required any changes in the metallurgy of the SDV system for PNPP?

If so, describe in detail.

3-13.

Will the Applicants be required to perform a fatigue analysis on-the Perry SDV system?

If so, explain the G

.~

extent of such requirements.

3-14.

Does the Staff intend to hold the Applicants to GDC 54 and 55 of Appendix h to 10 CPR Part 50 with regard to i

isolation valves within the SDV system?

If not, why not?

3-15.

Has the Staff established any surveillance requirements on the SDV system at PNPP?

If so, produce those require-ments.

I 3-16.

Relevant to 3-15 above, will any surveillance include radiography?

If so, please elaborate.

e r

3-17.

r Has the Staff accepted the recommendations of C. Michelson L

of the NRC AEOD that operability of the hi-level scram E

i be independent of the SDV venting or draining requirements?

5[

(See 8/1/80 letter from Michelson to H. Denton, Office t

i of NMR, NRC.)

~E E

3-18.

Is pipe whip a design consideration for SDV piping s=

E E

design?

If so, to what extent?

E 3-19.

In the Staff's opinion, did the suspected act of vandalism m

E described in PNO-81-109 cause any irreparable harm to E

I_f z

the SDV system that could lead to scram failure or to b=.

a pipe break in the SDV piping?

5 3-20.

In the Staff's opinion, could the deficiency in the hk t

ta stress ana,1ysis for the CRD hydraulic system described

==

in the March 11, 1982 letter from D. Davidson of CEI b_

E5 to J. Kepplcr of NRC Region III (water hammer loads from scram valve operation) lead to a. break in the SDV piping?

3-21.

In the Staff's opinion, could the concerns described in the 3-29-82 letter from A. Schwencer, Division of Licensing, NRC, to D. Davidson, l

A CEI, re " Fast Scram" Hydrodynamic Loads on Control Rod Drive. Systems, lead to a pipe break in the SDV system?
