The relief valve is in the Reactor Auxiliary building and is served by the ECCS area filtered ventilation system. Despite the tremendous increase in leakage, the licensee concluded that, using WREG 1465 source terms and operational particulate efficiencies, offsite and onsite doses would not exceed regulatory limits. The Itcensee has also performed a modification to make the trains physically independent. This event has been classified as an Event of Interest.

  • CLOSEOUT On October 20, 1994, while performing GL 89-10 differential pressure testing of MOVs, the Itcensee discovered a potential containment bypass flow path at St Lucie Unit I. Specifically, the, plant has two trains of Containment Spray.

The Containment Spray system uses a Sodi'.s Hydroxide Spray Additive system to cor. trol PH and maximize radiotodine removal from the containment atmosphere.

The NA0H is added using eductors that take a suction from the pump discharge and discharge to the pump suction. The design flaw discovered is that the flow paths for both trains of NA0H addition share a common leg of piping.

Therefore, if one containment spray pump was running and the other was idle.

l the suction piping of the idle train would be pressurized from the running l

train and lift the idle train's suction relief valve.

l l

In the event of a postulated loss of Coolant Accident concurrent with a failure of one containment spray pump failure (from Loss of Offsite Power and failure of one emergency Diesel Generator or direct failure of the pump), the suction reitef valve could open on the idle train, and after a Recirculation Actuation Signal would release containment sump inventory outside of containment. The reitef could also lift on a small break LOCA which did not require containment spray when a containment spray pump is procedurally aligned to the High Pressure Safety injection system for NPSH enhancement. The actual flow out of the relief would be limited by the NA0H Spray Additive system eductor to 128 gallons per minute. The FSAR assumes an Engineered Safeguards equipment external leakage rate of 2 liters per hour.

The relief valve is in the Reactor Auxiliary building and is served by the ECCS area filtered ventilation system. Despite the tremendous increase in leakage, the licensee concluded that, using WREG 1465 source terms and operational particulate efficiencies, offsite and onsite doses would not exceed regulatory limits. The Itcensee has also performed a modification to make the trains physically independent. This event has been classified as an Event of Interest.
