1.0 INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, Virginia Electric and Power Company (Dominion Energy Virginia) proposes a change to the Surry Power Station (SPS) Units 1 and 2 Subsequent Renewed Operating Licenses (Ols), DPR-32 and 37, respectively, and the associated Technical Specifications (TS) to delete expired License Conditions (LCs) and TS that were previously included in the Surry Units 1 and 2 Ols and TS to support one-time plant modifications or the initial implementation of plant programs.
Administrative changes and correction of editorial errors are also being addressed by the proposed change.
The proposed change is administrative in nature and will therefore not result in changes to plant design or operation.
Associated TS Basis changes are also included for the NRC's information.
2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE The proposed change to the SPS Units 1 and 2 Ols and accompanying TS: 1) deletes expired, obsolete information and requirements associated with previously completed plant modifications and plant program implementation requirements, and 2) makes administrative changes and corrects minor editorial errors in various sections of the TS.
The affected LCs and TS, and their associated license amendments or reference documents, as applicable, are provided in Table 1. A description of, and the reason for, each proposed change is provided in Section 2.

Serial No.22-035 Docket Nos. 50-280/281 2.1 Deletion of Expired License Conditions, Technical Specifications, and Associated Basis Text 2.1.1 LC 3.R, TS 1.D OPERABLE Definition Footnote, and TS 3.23.A.2.a.1 and b.1 Footnotes - Replacement of MCR/ESGR Air-Conditioning System (ACS)
Chilled Water Piping SPS Units 1 and 2 Amendments 258 and 257 (Reference 6.1) implemented a temporary LC and TS to facilitate the replacement of the MCR/ESGR ACS chilled water piping. Specifically, these amendments added LC 3.R to each unit's Operating License (OL) and a footnote to TS 3.23.C.2.a.1 and 3.23.C.2.b.1 permitting the use of temporary 45-day and 14-day allowed outage time (AOT) extensions four times in a 24-month time span to permit replacement of degraded MCR/ESGR ACS chilled water piping. The amendments also revised the definition of OPERABLE in TS 1. D specific to the MCR/ESGR ACS air handling units on the operating chilled water loop by including a footnote to permit either the normal or emergency electrical power source to be capable of performing its related support function for the purpose of performing TS-required surveillances that would render an emergency diesel generator inoperable. The chilled water piping replacement work was completed in 2008, and the associated design change package was closed out in June 2009. Furthermore, the 24-month time span permitted for use of the four AOT extensions began when the first AOT extension was entered on February 4, 2008, and therefore expired on February 4, 2010.
Consequently, LC 3.R and the footnotes associated with TS 1.0, 3.23.A.2.a.1 and 3.23.A.2.b.1 have expired and are therefore being deleted. (It should be noted that the TS 3.23 footnote refers to TS 3.23.C.2.a.1 and b.1.
TS 3.23.C was subsequently renumbered as TS 3.23.A by Amendments 260/260 as noted in Item 2.2.1 below.)
Related text in the TS 3.23 Basis is also being deleted as it refers to the work completed under the expired temporary TS AOTs.
2.1.2 LC 3.S - Control Room Envelope (CRE) Habitability Program SPS Units 1 and 2 Amendments 260/260 (Reference 6.2) incorporated OL and TS changes pursuant to Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Traveler TSTF-448, Revision 3, "Control Room Habitability." One of the changes was the incorporation of LC 3.S into the OLs which specified schedular requirements associated with: 1) the first performance of Surveillance Requirement (SR) 4.18, 2) the periodic assessment of MCR/ESGR envelope habitability specified in TS 6.4.R.3.b, and 3) the periodic measurement of MCR/ESGR envelope pressure as specified in TS 6.4.R.4. The first performance of these three requirements associated with CRE habitability surveillance, assessment, and measurement were completed as indicated in Table 2.1.
Since the first performance of the TS 4.18 surveillance, TS 6.4.R.3.b periodic assessment, and TS 6.4.R.4 periodic measurement of the CRE have been completed in accordance with the LC 3.S schedular requirements, LC 3.S is no longer required and is being deleted.

As required by LC 3.T, Commitments 1 through 7, 9 through 12, and 14 through 16 were completed for each unit prior to exceeding 2546 MWt, which occurred on December 8, 2010, for SPS Unit 1 and on June 30, 2011, for SPS Unit 2.
The remaining two items, Commitments 8 and 13, required the UFSAR to be updated in accordance with 10 CFR 50.71 (e), and the Unit 1 and Unit 2 excore neutron detectors to be replaced by the completion of the fall 2010 and spring 2011 refueling outages (RFOs), respectively.
Commitment 8 was completed when the SPS Units 1 and 2 UFSAR was updated in Revision 43 dated September 27, 2011 (Serial No.11-459)
[ADAMS Accession No. ML11287A165] to reflect the MUR power uprate. Commitment 13 was met upon the replacement of the SPS Units 1 and 2 excore neutron detectors on November 30, 2010, during the Unit 1 fall 2010 RFO and on May 27, 2011, during the Unit 2 spring 2011 RFO, respectively. Consequently, LC 3.T is no longer required and is being deleted.

Serial No.22-035 Docket Nos. 50-280/281 2.1.4 TS 3.16, "Emergency Power System," - Temporary Extended Allowed Outage Times (AOTsl for Replacement of RSST C and its associated 5-KV Cable SPS Units 1 and 2 Amendments 293/293 (Reference 6.4) implemented a temporary, one-time, 21-day AOT in a footnote to TS 3.16, Action 8.2, to permit replacement of the Unit 2 RSST C. Amendments 297/297 (Reference 6.5) revised the footnote included in Amendments 293/293 to permit a temporary, one-time, 14-day AOT for replacement of the 5-KV cabling associated with Unit 2 RSST C consistent with the specified footnote conditions. RSST C was replaced during the fall 2018 Unit 2 RFO, and its associated cabling was replaced during the spring 2020 Unit 2 RFO. The one-time, 14-day AOT was exited on May 24, 2020. Consequently, the temporary, one-time AOT footnote to TS 3.16, Action 8.2, has expired and can be deleted. Related text in the TS 3.16 Basis is also being deleted as it discusses the alternate dependable power source that would be used while RSST C was out of service, as well as the additional actions to be taken prior to entering the temporary, one-time AOT permitted by the footnote.
2.2 Administrative Changes and Corrections 2.2.1 TS 3.10, "Refueling" As noted above, SPS Units 1 and 2 Amendments 260/260 (Reference 6.2) incorporated TS changes pursuant to TSTF-448, Revision 3, "Control Room Habitability."
The amendments included a revision to then TS 3.23, "Main Control Room and Emergency Switchgear Room Ventilation and Air Conditioning System."
The amendments separated TS 3.23 into two separate TS sections: TS 3.21, "Main Control Room and Emergency Switchgear Room (MCR/ESGR) Emergency Ventilation System (EVS)," and TS 3.23, "Main Control Room and Emergency Switchgear Room Air Conditioning System." As part of that change, existing TS 3.23.A and B, which addressed the MCR/ESGR EVS, were revised and relocated to new TS section 3.21, while TS 3.23.C, which only addressed the MCR/ESGR Air Conditioning System (ACS) was renumbered as TS 3.23.A.
However, it was not recognized at the time those changes were made that TS 3.10 included references to TS 3.23.C, which had been subsequently renumbered as TS 3.23.A by Amendments 260/260.
Consequently, the proposed change revises TS 3.10.A.13 and 14 and TS 3.10.B.6 and 7 to reference TS 3.23.A instead of TS 3.23.C, which no longer exists.
2.2.2 TS 4.9, "Radioactive Gas Storage Monitoring System" SPS Units 1 and 2 Amendments 228/228 (Reference 6.6) implemented changes to the Reactor Protection System (RPS) and the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) instrumentation systems. The amendments revised the surveillance Page 6 of 11
Serial No.22-035 Docket Nos. 50-280/281 test intervals, AOTs, bypass times, and limiting conditions for operation (LCO) for those systems. As part of those changes, TS 3.7.A was deleted and the remaining sections were renumbered. This change resulted in TS 3.7.E, which was associated with the explosive gas monitoring instrumentation
- channel, being renumbered as TS 3.7.D. However, it was not identified at the time the change was made that TS 3.7.E was referenced in TS 4.9, "Radioactive Gas Storage Monitoring System."
Consequently, the reference to TS 3.7.E in TS 4.9.A was not changed to reference the revised TS number 3.7.D.
Therefore, the proposed change revises TS 4.9.A to reference TS 3.7.D rather than TS 3.7.E.
2.2.3 TS 6.1.2, "Organization" TS 6.1.2 in the Administrative Controls section of the TS includes the Unit Staff requirements in TS 6.1.2.2. TS 6.1.2.2.d currently states, "The Supervisor Nuclear Shift Operations shall hold an active Senior Reactor Operator License for Surry Power Station." The title "Supervisor Nuclear Shift Operations" was subsequently changed to "Superintendent Nuclear Shift Operations."
The proposed change revises TS 6.1.2.2.d to reflect the current position title.
The position responsibilities and qualification requirements are unchanged.
2.2.4 TS 6.7, "Environmental Qualification" TS 6.7 was incorporated into the SPS Units 1 and 2 TS pursuant to an NRC Order dated October 24, 1980, "Orders for Modification of Licenses Concerning Environmental Qualification of Safety-Related Electrical Equipment" (Reference 6.7). When TS 6.7.B was included in the TS as required by the Order, an editorial error was inadvertently introduced.
Specifically, the first line of TS 6.7.B includes the words, "By on later than... " as opposed to the correct wording, "By no later than... " The proposed change corrects the TS wording discrepancy.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
The proposed change to the SPS Units 1 and 2 Subsequent Renewed Ols and TS is administrative in nature and does not affect how plant equipment is operated or maintained.
The change deletes expired LCs and TS footnotes associated with completed plant modifications and programmatic implementation requirements, makes administrative changes to correct errors introduced in previous license amendments, and updates a personnel title. No changes to the physical plant or analytical methods are described, and there are no impacts on the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) accident analyses.
Page 7 of 11
4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
4.1 Determination of No Significant Hazards Consideration Serial No.22-035 Docket Nos. 50-280/281 Virginia Electric and Power Company (Dominion Energy Virginia) has reviewed the requirements of 10 CFR 50.92 as they relate to the proposed administrative change to the Surry Power Station (SPS) Units 1 and 2 Subsequent Renewed Operating Licenses (SROLs) DPR-32 and DPR-37 and the Technical Specifications (TS). The proposed change deletes expired License Conditions (LCs) and TS footnotes associated with completed plant modifications and programmatic implementation requirements, makes administrative changes to correct minor editorial errors introduced in previous license amendments, and updates a personnel title. In accordance with the criteria set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, Dominion Energy Virginia has performed an analysis of the proposed change and concluded that it does not represent a significant hazards consideration.
The following discussion is provided in support of this conclusion:
- 1. Does the proposed license amendment involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?
Response: No The proposed change to delete expired, temporary LCs and TS, correct minor TS administrative errors and update a personnel title does not impact the condition or performance of any plant structure, system, or component.
The proposed administrative change does not affect the initiators of any previously analyzed event or the assumed mitigation of accident or transient events. As a result, the proposed change to the SPS Units 1 and 2 SROLs and TS does not involve an increase in the probability or consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated since neither accident probabilities nor consequences are being affected by the proposed administrative change.
- 2. Does the proposed license amendment create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?
Response: No The proposed change to delete expired, temporary LCs and TS, correct minor TS editorial errors and update a personnel title is administrative in nature, and therefore does not involve any changes in station operation or physical modifications to the plant. In addition, no changes are being made in the methods used to respond to plant transients that have been previously analyzed. No changes are being made to plant parameters within which the plant is normally operated or in the setpoints that initiate protective or mitigative actions, and no new failure modes are being introduced. Therefore, the proposed administrative change to the Surry SROLs and Page 8 of 11
Serial No.22-035 Docket Nos. 50-280/281 TS does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety from any previously evaluated.
- 3. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?
Response: No The proposed change to delete expired, temporary LCs and TS, correct minor TS editorial errors and update a personnel title is administrative in nature and therefore does not affect the acceptance criteria for any analyzed event, nor is there a change to any safety limit. The proposed change does not affect any structures, systems or components or their capability to perform their intended functions and does not alter the way safety limits, limiting safety system settings or limiting conditions for operation are determined.
Neither the safety analyses nor the safety analyses acceptance criteria are affected by the proposed change. Therefore, the proposed administrative change to the Surry SROLs and TS does not involve a reduction in a margin of safety.
4.2 Conclusion 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.
4.3 Precedents Numerous licensees have submitted LARs to make administrative and editorial changes including the deletion of expired, obsolete and/or completed requirements contained in their Ols and TS. A sample of these LARs is provided below:

(ADAMS Accession No. ML141928143) 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This amendment request meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9) as follows:
(i) The amendment involves no significant hazards consideration.
As described above, the proposed administrative change does not involve a significant hazards consideration.
(ii) There is no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite.
The proposed administrative change to the SPS Units 1 and 2 SROLs and TS does not involve the installation of any new equipment or the modification of any equipment that may affect the types or amounts of effluents that may be released offsite.
Plant operation is not affected in any manner by this proposed administrative change. Therefore, there is no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite.
(iii) There is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
The proposed administrative change does not involve plant physical changes or changes in the method of plant operation.
Therefore, there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
Based on the above assessment, Dominion Energy Virginia concludes that the proposed administrative change meets the criteria specified in 10 CFR 51.22 for a categorical exclusion from the requirements of 10 CFR 51.22 relative to requiring a specific environmental assessment or impact statement by the Commission.

Amendment Nos. 267 and~
TS 3.l-14a 11-05-09 This LCO deals with protection of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) from degradation and the core from inadequate cooling, in addition to preventing the accident analyses radiation release assumptions from being exceeded. The consequences of violating this LCO include the possibility of a loss of coolant accident (LOCA).
APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES - Except for primary to secondary LEAKAGE, the safety analyses do not address operational LEAKAGE. However, other operational LEAKAGE is related to the safety analyses for LOCA; the amount of leakage* can affect the probability of such an event. The safety analysis for an event resulting in steam discharge to the atmosphere assumes that primary to secondary LEAKAGE from all steam generators (SGs) is 1 gpm or increases to 1 gpm as a result of accident induced conditions. The LCO requirement to limit primary to secondary LEAKAGE through any oneSG to less than orequal to 150 gallons per day is significantly less than the conditions assumed in the safety analysis.
Primary to secondary LEAKAGE is a factor in the dose releases outside containment resulting from a main steam line break (MSLB) accident. Other accidents or transients involve secondary steam release to the atmosphere, such as a steam generator tube rupture (SGTR). The leakage contaminates the secondary fluid.
The UFSAR (Ref. 2) analysis for SGTR assumes the contaminated secondary fluid is released via power operated relief valves or safety valves. The source term in the primary system coolant is transported to the affected (ruptured) steam generator by the break flow. The affected steam generator discharges steam to the environment for 30 minutes until the generator is manually isolated. The 1 gpm primary to secondary LEAKAGE transports the source term to the unaffected steam generators. Releases continue through the unaffected steam generators until the Residual Heat Removal System is placed in service.
The MSLB is less limiting for site radiation releases than the SGTR. The safety analysis for the MSLB accident assumes I gpm total primary to secondary LEAKAGE, including 500 gpd leakage into the faulted generator. The dose consequences resulting from the MSLB and the SGTR accidents are within the limits defined in the plant licensing basis.
The RCS operational LEAKAGE satisfies Criterion 2 of l O CFR 50.36( c)(2)(ii).
LIMITING CONDIDONS FOR OPERATION - RCS operational LEAKAGE shall be limited to:
- i, Pressure Boundary LEAKAGE No pressure boundary LEAKAGE is allowed, being indicative of material deterioration.
LEAKAGE of this type is unacceptable as the leak it~elf could cause further deterioration, resulting in higher LEAKAGE. Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of the RCPB. LEAKAGE past seals apd gaskets is not pressure boundary LEAKAGE.
~
Amendment Nos. 267 and~
- b. Unidentified LEAKAGE TS 3.1-14b 11-05-09 One gallon per minute (gpm) of unidentified LEAK.AGE is allowed as a reasonable minimwn detectable amount that the containment air monitoring and containment sump level monitoring equipment can detect within a reasonable time period. Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of the RCPB, if the LEAKAGE is from the pressure boundary.
- c. Identified LEAKAGE Up to 10 gpm of identified LEAKAGE is considered allowable because LEAKAGE is from known sources that do not interfere with detection of unidentified LEAKAGE and is well within the capability of the RCS Makeup System. Identified LEAKAGE includes LEAKAGE to the containment from specifically known and located sources, but does not include pressure boundary LEAKAGE or controlled reactor coolant pump {RCP) seal leakoff (a normai function not considered LEAKAGE). Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of a component or system.
- d. Primary to Secondary LEAKAGE through Any One SG The limit of 150 gallons per day per SG is based on the operational LEAKAGE performance criterion in NEI 97-06, Steam Generator Program Guidelines (Ref. 3). The Steam Generator Program operational LEAKAGE performance criterion in NEI 97-06 states, The RCS operational primary to secondary leakage through any one SG sha11 be limited to 150 gallons per day." The limit is based on operating experience with SG tube degradation mechanisms that result in tube leakage. The operational leakage rate criterion in conjunction with the implementation of the Steam Generator Program is an effective measure for minimizing the frequency of steam generator tube ruptures.
APPLICABILITY - In REACTOR OPERATION conditions where Tavg exceeds 200°F, the potential for RCPB LEAKAGE is greatest when the RCS is pressurized.
In COLD SHUTDOWN and REFUELING SHUTDOWN, LEAKAGE limits are not required because the reactor coolant pressure is far lower, resulting in lower stresses and reduced potentials for LEAKAGE.
LCO 3. l.C.5 measures leakage through each individual pressure isolation valve (PIV) and can impact this LCO. Of the two PIVs in series.in each isolated line, leakage measured through one PN does not result in RCS LEAKAGE when the other is leak.tight. If both valves leak and result in a loss of mass from the RCS, the loss must be included in the allowable identified LEAKAGE.

E. The requirements of 3.0.1 are not applicable.
Basis Detailed instructions, the above specified precautions, and the design of the fuel handling equipment, which incorporates built-in interlocks and safety features, provide assurance that an accident, which would result in a hazard to public health and safety, will not occur during unit REFUELING OPERA TIO NS or irradiated fuel movement in the Fuel Building. When no change is being made in core geometry, one neutron detector is sufficient to monitor the core and permits maintenance of the out-of-function instrumentation. Continuous monitoring of radiation levels and neutron flux provides immediate indication of an unsafe condition.
Potential escape paths for fission product radioactivity within containment are required to be closed or capable of closure to prevent the release to the environment. However, since there is no potential for significant containment pressurization during refueling, the Appendix J leakage criteria and tests are not applicable.
The containment equipment access hatch, which is part of the containment pressure boundary, provides a means for moving large equipment and components into and out of the containment. During REFUELING OPERATIONS, the equipment hatch must be capable of being closed.

TS 3.16-7 03 16 20 TS action statement 3.16.B. l.a.2 provides an allowance to avoid unnecessary testing of an OPERABLE EDG(s). If it can be determined that the cause of an inoperable EDG does not exist on the OPERABLE EDG(s), operability testing does not have to be performed. If the cause of the inoperability exists on the other EDG(s), then the other EDG(s) would be declared inoperable upon discovery, and the applicable required action(s) would be entered. Once the failure is repaired, the common cause failure no longer exists and the operability testing requirement for the OPERABLE EDG(s) is satisfied.

Amendment Nos. 267 and 266
TS 3.l-14a 11-05-09 This LCO deals with protection of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) from degradation and the core from inadequate cooling, in addition to preventing the accident analyses radiation release assumptions from being exceeded. The consequences of violating this LCO include the possibility of a loss of coolant accident (LOCA).
APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES - Except for primary to secondary LEAKAGE, the safety analyses do not address operational LEAKAGE. However, other operational LEAKAGE is related to the safety analyses for LOCA; the amount of leakage can affect the probability of such an event. The safety analysis for an event resulting in steam discharge to the atmosphere assumes that primary to secondary LEAKAGE from all steam generators (SGs) is 1 gpm or increases to 1 gpm as a result of accident induced conditions. The LCO requirement to limit primary to secondary LEAKAGE through any one SG to less than or equal to 150 gallons per day is significantly less than the conditions assumed in the safety analysis.
Primary to secondary LEAKAGE is a factor in the dose releases outside containment resulting from a main steam line break (MSLB) accident. Other accidents or transients involve secondary steam release to the atmosphere, such as a steam generator tube rupture (SGTR). The leakage contaminates the secondary fluid.
The UFSAR (Ref. 2) analysis for SGTR assumes the contaminated secondary fluid is released via power operated relief valves or safety valves. The source term in the primary system coolant is transported to the affected (ruptured) steam generator by the break flow. The affected steam generator discharges steam to the environment for 30 minutes until the generator is manually isolated. The 1 gpm primary to secondary LEAKAGE transports the source term to the unaffected steam generators. Releases continue through the unaffected steam generators until the Residual Heat Removal System is placed in service.
The MSLB is less limiting for site radiation releases than the SGTR. The safety analysis for the MSLB accident assumes 1 gpm total primary to secondary LEAKAGE, including 500 gpd leakage into the faulted generator. The dose consequences resulting from the MSLB and the SGTR accidents are within the limits defined in the plant licensing basis.
The RCS operational LEAKAGE satisfies Criterion 2 of 10 CPR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).
LIMITING CONDffiONS FOR OPERATION - RCS operational LEAKAGE shall be limited to:
- a. Pressure Boundary LEAKAGE No pressure boundary LEAKAGE is allowed, being indicative of material deterioration.
LEAKAGE of this type is unacceptable as the leak itself could cause further deterioration, resulting in higher LEAKAGE. Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of the RCPB. LEAKAGE past seals and gaskets is not pressure boundary LEAKAGE.
Amendment Nos. 267 and 266
- b. Unidentified LEAKAGE TS 3.1-14b 11-05-09 One gallon per minute (gpm) of unidentified LEAKAGE is allowed as a reasonable minimum detectable amount that the containment air monitoring and containment sump level monitoring equipment can detect within a reasonable time period. Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of the RCPB, if the LEAKAGE is from the pressure boundary.
- c. Identified LEAKAGE Up to 10 gpm of identified LEAKAGE is considered allowable because LEAKAGE is from known sources that do not interfere with detection of unidentified LEAKAGE and is well within the capability of the RCS Makeup System. Identified LEAKAGE includes LEAKAGE to the containment from specifically known and located sources, but does not include pressure boundary LEAKAGE or controlled reactor coolant pump (RCP) seal leak.off (a normal function not considered LEAKAGE). Violation of this LCO could result in continued degradation of a component or system.
- d. Primary to Secondary LEAKAGE through Any One SG The limit of 150 gallons per day per SG is based on the operational LEAKAGE performance criterion in NEI 97-06, Steam Generator Program Guidelines (Ref. 3). The Steam Generator Program operational LEAKAGE performance criterion in NEI 97-06 states, "The RCS operational primary to secondary leakage through any one SG shall be limited to 150 gallons per day." The limit is based on operating experience with SG tube degradation mechanisms that result in tube leakage. The operational leakage rate criterion in conjunction with the implementation of the Steam Generator Program is an effective measure for minimizing the frequency of steam generator tube ruptures.
APPLICABILITY - In REACTOR OPERATION conditions where Tavg exceeds 200°F, the potential for RCPB LEAKAGE is greatest when the RCS is pressurized.
In COLD SHUTDOWN and REFUELING SHUTDOWN, LEAKAGE limits are not required because the reactor coolant pressure is far lower, resulting in lower stresses and reduced potentials for LEAKAGE.
LCO 3.1.C.5 measures leakage through each individual pressure isolation valve (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.

E. The requirements of 3.0.1 are not applicable.
Basis Detailed instructions, the above specified precautions, and the design of the fuel handling equipment, which incorporates built-in interlocks and safety features, provide assurance that an accident, which would result in a hazard to public health and safety, will not occur during unit REFUELING OPERATIONS or irradiated fuel movement in the Fuel Building. When no change is being made in core geometry, one neutron detector is sufficient to monitor the core and permits maintenance of the out-of-function instrumentation. Continuous monitoring of radiation levels and neutron flux provides immediate indication of an unsafe condition.
Potential escape paths for fission product radioactivity within containment are required to be closed or capable of closure to prevent the release to the environment. However, since there is no potential for significant containment pressurization during refueling, the Appendix J leakage criteria and tests are not applicable.
The containment equipment access hatch, which is part of the containment pressure boundary, provides a means for moving large equipment and components into and out of the containment. During REFUELING OPERATIONS, the equipment hatch must be capable of being closed.

TS 3.16-7 TS action statement 3.16.B.l.a.2 provides an allowance to avoid unnecessary testing of an OPERABLE EDG(s). If it can be determined that the cause of an inoperable EDG does not exist on the OPERABLE EDG(s), operability testing does not have to be performed. If the cause of the inoperability exists on the other EDG(s), then the other EDG(s) would be declared inoperable upon discovery, and the applicable required action(s) would be entered. Once the failure is repaired, the common cause failure no longer exists and the operability testing requirement for the OPERABLE EDG(s) is satisfied. If the cause of the initial inoperable EDG cannot be confirmed not to exist on the remaining EDG(s),
performance of the operability test within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> provides assurance of continued operability of those EDG(s).
In the event the inoperable EDG is restored to OPERABLE status prior to completing the operability testing requirement for the OPERABLE EDG(s), the corrective action program will continue to evaluate the common cause possibility, including the other unit's EDG or the shared EDG. This continued evaluation, however, is no longer under the 24-hour constraint imposed by the action statement.
