- 1.
Access to both switchyards and relay houses will be controlled and posted, and all planned maintenance will be suspended for the duration of the extended CT.
This risk reduction measure was selected based on the reliance on offsite power during the extended CT. The measure is selected to deter any potential transmission grid perturbations or trip issues to the 6.9 kV power supplies from either the 345kV or 138kV switchyard. Work in the switchyard is administratively controlled by the Operations Shift Manager (SM) who by plant procedure, STA-629 "Switchyard Control and Transmission Grid Interface," (Reference 6.27) has sole authority to grant access to the switchyard. By SM authority, any testing or maintenance activities or access to either switchyard will not be permitted, with the exception of normal operator visual inspection rounds or response to abnormal or emergency conditions.
- 2.
The following applies to Unit 2. The EDGs, APGs, TDAFWP, inservice startup transformers, CCWPs, and SSWPs will have ALL testing and maintenance activities suspended (except for those required to restore equipment from any ongoing maintenance activity) for the duration of the safety chilled water extended CT. Additionally, during the extended CT, signs will be placed on the doorways to the equipment, or in the case of the inservice startup transformers, boundary signs, and barrier tape, rope, or chains will be installed on Train A equipment in service or in standby; safety chiller and recirculation pump, CCW pump, CCP, SIP, RHR pump, Containment Spray pumps (two per train), and both trains of Spent Fuel Pool Cooling pumps, 6.9kV Safeguards electrical switchgear and UPS HVAC, noting the restriction of testing and maintenance.
These risk reduction measures ensure continued availability of these components for the entire duration of the extended CT.
- 3.
For Fire Safety Shutdown Analysis (FSSA) - Fire Areas of Concern will have additional restrictions on combustible storage during the extended CT. All "Hot Work" in the Fire Areas of Concern will be suspended. An hourly roving fire watch will be in effect to protect the Fire Areas of Concern as a Risk Management Action (RMA). The Fire Areas of Concern are the areas that credit the affected safety chiller for achieving FSS.
- 4.
For Risk Mitigation Both Unit 1 and 2 Transient Combustible safe zones identified in the fire assessment, in the Main Control Room (MGR) and the Cable Spread Room (CSR) and the cable routing paths for the inservice startup transformers will have additional restrictions relating to combustible storage during the extended CT.
Implementing this RMA will reduce the fire risks that were identified for the transient combustible scenarios in the fire analysis.
to TXX-20056 Page 3 of 4 All hot work activities along the routing associated with power and control cabling for inservice startup transformers, in the MCR and the CSR will be suspended during the extended CT. This RMA reduces the risks associated with fires that could damage and thus disable the station transformer cabling.
An hourly roving fire watch will be in effect to protect areas credited by the fire assessment, specifically, the MCR and CSR (to minimize the exposure time for detection and suppression of potential fires) and areas containing power and control cabling of the inservice startup transformers (to minimize loss of offsite power).
- 5.
Safety Chiller compressor replacement will not be started if severe weather conditions are anticipated.
- 6.
Safety Chiller compressor replacement will not be started if grid instability conditions are anticipated.

EFCUs are provided in motor-driven ESF pump rooms (i.e., Centrifugal Charging Pump rooms, Safety Injection Pump rooms, Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Pump rooms, Containment Spray Pump rooms, and the motor-driven Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) Pump rooms), in the Spent Fuel Pool Cooling Pump rooms, in the Component Cooling Water (CCW) Pump rooms, in the UPS Rooms, and in the Class 1 E electrical switchgear rooms.
The system is designed to provide chilled water to maintain the ambient air temperature within the design limits of the essential equipment served by the system.
The safety related equipment and respective EFCUs are of the same safety train as the associated chilled water train. Thus, a power failure or other single failure to one cooling system train will not prevent the cooling of redundant equipment in the other train.
The Safety Chilled Water System for each unit consists of two separate and completely redundant safety trains. Each train consists of one packaged centrifugal chiller, one centrifugal chilled water recirculation pump, interconnecting piping, valves, controls and instrumentation. There are no automatic valves in the system. Additionally, the two trains share a common chilled water surge (expansion) tank, partitioned in the middle into two separate compartments to provide complete separation of the two trains, that function to ensure sufficient net positive suction head is available.
In addition to manual start capability, automatic start of the Safety Chill Water System is provided on a Safety Injection (SI) signal or a station blackout.
The Safety Chilled Water System is seismic Category I and remains operational during and after a safe shutdown earthquake. The associated instrumentation is described in greater detail in FSAR Sections, 7.3 and 9.4, References 1 and 2 respectively.
The design basis of the Safety Chilled Water System is to support EFCUs that maintain air temperatures as required in selected rooms containing safety-related equipment during normal operation and during and after a design basis accident (with or without a loss of offsite power) or a blackout (loss of offsite power, LOOP).

COMANCHE PEAK - UNITS 1 AND 2 B 3.7-83 Revision73 to TXX-20056 Page 8of14 Safety Chilled Water System B3.7.19 BASES APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES (continued)
LCO APPLICABILITY ACTIONS The Safety Chilled Water System is designed to perform its function in response to an SI signal with a single failure of any active component, assuming the loss of offsite power. One train of the Safety Chilled Water System provides 100% of the required cooling for the associated train of EFCUs.
The Safety Chilled Water System satisfies criterion 4 of 1 OCFR50.36(c)(2)(ii).
Two Safety Chilled Water System trains are required OPERABLE to provide the required redundancy to ensure that the system functions to remove heat from the EFCUs during and after an accident assuming the worst case single failure occurs coincident with the loss of offsite power.
A Safety Chilled Water System train is considered OPERABLE when the associated chiller, chilled water pump, surge tank, piping, valves, and instrumentation required to perform the safety-related function are OPERABLE.
The isolation of Safety Chilled Water from the EFCUs may render those units inoperable but does not affect the OPERABILITY of the Safety Chilled Water System.
In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 the Safety Chilled Water System is a normally operating system, which must be prepared to provide a safety-related cooling function consistent with the OPERABILITY requirements of the essential equipment it supports.
In MODE 5 or 6, the OPERABILITY requirements of the Safety Chilled Water System are determined by the systems it supports.
A. 1 If one Safety Chilled Water System train is inoperable, action must be taken to restore the train to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. In this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE Safety Chilled Water System train is adequate to perform the heat removal function for its associated essential equipment.
However, the overall reliability is reduced because a single failure in the (continued)

)
SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS A. 1 (continued)
OPERABLE Safety Chilled Water System train could result in loss of the Safety Chilled Water System function. The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time is based on the redundant capabilities afforded by the OPERABLE train, and the low probability of a OBA occurring during this time.
B.1 and B.2 If the Safety Chilled Water System train cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the associated 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 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.
SR 3.7.19.1 This SR is modified by a Note indicating that the isolation of safety chilled water flow to individual components may render these components inoperable but does not affect the OPERABILITY of safety chilled water system.
Verifying the correct alignment for manual valves servicing safety-related equipment provides assurance that the proper flow paths exist for Safety Chilled Water System operation. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since they are verified to be in the correct position prior to being locked, sealed, or secured. This SR does not require any testing or valve manipulation; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of being mispositioned are in the correct position. This SR does not apply to valves that cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves.
The Surveillance Frequency is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program.
SR 3.7.19.2 This SR verifies proper operation of the Safety Chilled Water System fans and pumps on an actual or simulated Safety Injection actuation signal. The Surveillance Frequency is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program.

EFCUs are provided in motor-driven ESF pump rooms (i.e., Centrifugal Charging Pump rooms, Safety Injection Pump rooms, Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Pump rooms, Containment Spray Pump rooms, and the motor-driven Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) Pump rooms), in the Spent Fuel Pool Cooling Pump rooms, in the Component Cooling Water (CCW) Pump rooms, in the UPS Rooms, and in the Class 1 E electrical switchgear rooms.
The system is designed to provide chilled water to maintain the ambient air temperature within the design limits of the essential equipment served by the system.
The safety related equipment and respective EFCUs are of the same safety train as the associated chilled water train. Thus, a power failure or other single failure to one cooling system train will not prevent the cooling of redundant equipment in the other train.
The Safety Chilled Water System for each unit consists of two separate and completely redundant safety trains. Each train consists of one packaged centrifugal chiller, one centrifugal chilled water recirculation pump, interconnecting piping, valves, controls and instrumentation. There are no automatic valves in the system. Additionally, the two trains share a common chilled water surge (expansion) tank, partitioned in the middle into two separate compartments to provide complete separation of the two trains, that function to ensure sufficient net positive suction head is available.
In addition to manual start capability, automatic start of the Safety Chill Water System is provided on a Safety Injection (SI) signal or a station blackout.
The Safety Chilled Water System is seismic Category I and remains operational during and after a safe shutdown earthquake. The associated instrumentation is described in greater detail in FSAR Sections, 7.3 and 9.4, References 1 and 2 respectively.
The design basis of the Safety Chilled Water System is to support EFCUs that maintain air temperatures as required in selected rooms containing safety-related equipment during normal operation and during and after a design basis accident (with or without a loss of offsite power) or a blackout (loss of offsite power, LOOP).

LCO APPLICABILITY ACTIONS The Safety Chilled Water System is designed to perform its function in response to an SI signal with a single failure of any active component, assuming the loss of offsite power. One train of the Safety Chilled Water System provides 100% of the required cooling for the associated train of EFCUs.
The Safety Chilled Water System satisfies criterion 4 of 1 OCFR50.36(c)(2)(ii).
Two Safety Chilled Water System trains are required OPERABLE to provide the required redundancy to ensure that the system functions to remove heat from the EFCUs during and after an accident assuming the worst case single failure occurs coincident with the loss of offsite power.
A Safety Chilled Water System train is considered OPERABLE when the associated chiller, chilled water pump, surge tank, piping, valves, and instrumentation required to perform the safety-related function are OPERABLE.
The isolation of Safety Chilled Water from the EFCUs may render those units inoperable but does not affect the OPERABILITY of the Safety Chilled Water System.
In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4 the Safety Chilled Water System is a normally operating system, which must be prepared to provide a safety-related cooling function consistent with the OPERABILITY requirements of the essential equipment it supports.
In MODE 5 or6, the OPERABILITY requirements of the Safety Chilled Water System are determined by the systems it supports.
If one Safety Chilled Water System train is inoperable, action must be taken to restore the train to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. In this Condition, the remaining OPERABLE Safety Chilled Water System train is adequate to perform the heat removal function for its associated essential equipment.
However, the overall reliability is reduced because a single failure in the (continued)

OPERABLE Safety Chilled Water System train could result in loss of the Safety Chilled Water System function. The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time is based on the redundant capabilities afforded by the OPERABLE train, and the low probability of a OBA occurring during this time.
A.2 The COMPLETION TIME for restoring the inoperable safety chilled water train to OPERABLE status can be extended to 7 days, on a one time basis for Safety Chiller 2-06 (Train B) compressor replacement during Unit 2 Cycle 19. This one time change regains reliability margin for Unit 2, Train B safety chilled water. The 7 day completion time for action A.2 is based on a deterministic evaluation supplemented with risk insights.
B.1 and B.2 If the Safety Chilled Water System train cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the associated 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 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.
SR 3.7.19.1 This SR is modified by a Note indicating that the isolation of safety chilled water flow to individual components may render these components inoperable but does not affect the OPERABILITY of safety chilled water system.
Verifying the correct alignment for manual valves servicing safety-related equipment provides assurance that the proper flow paths exist for Safety Chilled Water System operation. This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since they are verified to be in the correct position prior to being locked, sealed, or secured. This SR does not require any testing or valve manipulation; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of being mispositioned are in the correct position. This SR does not apply to valves that cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves.
The Surveillance Frequency is controlled under the Surveillance Frequency Control Program.
