The occurrence of an extended, uncontrolled radioactive release to theenvironment is indicative of degradation in these features and/or controls.

  1. 1 BasisThe Loss threshold represents the EOP requirement for primary containment flooding.

This is identified in the BWROG EPGsISAGsEOPs/SAMPs when the phrase, "PrimaryContainment Flooding Is Required,"

appears.

Since a site-specific RPV water level isnot specified here, the Loss threshold phrase, "Primary containment flooding required,"

also accommodates the EOP need to flood the primary containment when RPV waterlevel cannot be determined and core damage due to inadequate core cooling isbelieved to be occurring.

This threshold is considered to be exceeded when, as specified in the site-specific EOPs, RPV-wate RPV water level cannot be restored and maintained above thespecified level following depressurization of the RPV (either manually, automatically orby failure of the RCS barrier) or when procedural guidance or a lack of low pressureRPV injection sources preclude Emergency RPV depressurization.

EOPs allow theoperator a wide choice of RPV injection sources to consider when restoring RPV waterlevel to within prescribed limits. EOPs also specify depressurization of the RPV in orderMonth 20XXPBAPS 3-27EP-AA-1007 (Revision XX)

Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station AnnexExelon NuclearRECOGNITION CATEGORYFISSION PRODUCT BARRIER DEGRADATION to facilitate RPV water level control with low-pressure injection sources.

In some events,elevated RPV pressure may prevent restoration of RPV water level until pressure dropsbelow the shutoff heads of available injection sources.

Therefore, this Fuel Clad barrierPotential Loss is met only after either: 1) the RPV has been depressurized, or requiredemergency RPV depressurization has been attempted, giving the operator anopportunity to assess the capability of low-pressure injection sources to restore RPVwater level or 2) no low pressure RPV injection systems are available, precluding RPVdepressurization in an attempt to minimize loss of RPV inventory.

The term "cannot be restored and maintained above" means the value of RPV waterlevel is not able to be brought above the specified limit (top of active fuel). Thedetermination requires an evaluation of system performance and availability in relationto the RPV water level value and trend. A threshold prescribing declaration when athreshold value cannot be restored and maintained above a specified limit does notrequire immediate action simply because the current value is below the top of activefuel, but does not permit extended operation below the limit; the threshold must beconsidered reached as soon as it is apparent that the top of active fuel cannot beattained.

Entry into the "Steam Cooling" leg of the EOP's would be an example of an inability to"restore and maintain" level above TAF resulting in this threshold being met.In high-power ATWS/failure to scram events, EOPs may direct the operator todeliberately lower RPV water level to top of ac-tive fue! in order to reduce reactorpower.

ýAlthough such action is achallenge to core cooling and the Fuel Clad barrier, the immediate need to reducereactor power is the higher priority.

For such events, ICs SA5-MA3 or SS,-MS3 willdictate the need for emergency classification.

Since the loss of ability to determine if adequate core cooling is being provided presentsa significant challenge to the fuel clad barrier, a potential loss of the fuel clad barrier isspecified.

Potential Loss Threshold-

  1. 3 Basis 3.APotential loss of RCS based on primary system leakage outside the primarycontainment is determined from EOP temperature or radiation Max Normal Operating values in areas such as main steam line tunnel, RCIC, HPCI, etc., which indicate adirect path from the RCS to areas outside primary containment.

A Max Normal Operating value is the highest value of the identified parameter expectedto occur during normal plant operating conditions with all directly associated supportand control systems functioning properly.

The indicators reaching the threshold barriers and confirmed to be caused by RCSleakage from a primary system warrant an Alert classification.

A primary system isdefined to be the pipes, valves, and other equipment which connect directly to the RPVsuch that a reduction in RPV pressure will effect a decrease in the steam or water beingdischarged through an unisolated break in the system.In general, multiple indications should be used to determine if a primary system isdischarging outside Primary Containment.

For example, a high area radiation condition does not necessarily indicate that a primary system is discharging into the ReactorBuilding since this may be caused by radiation shine from nearby steam lines or themovement of radioactive materials.

Conversely, a high area radiation condition inconjunction with other indications (e.g. room flooding, high area temperatures, reports ofsteam in the Reactor Building, an unexpected rise in Feedwater

flowrate, or unexpected Main Turbine Control Valve closure) may indicate that a primary system is discharging into the Reactor Building.

This level of fuel clad failure is well above that used to determine the analogous Fuel Clad Barrier Loss and RCS Barrier Loss thresholds.

NUREG-1 228, Source Estimations During Incident Response to Severe Nuclear PowerPlant Accidents, indicates the fuel clad failure must be greater than approximately 20%in order for there to be a major release of radioactivity requiring offsite protective actions.

For this condition to existT there must already have been a loss of the RCSBarrier and the Fuel Clad Barrier.

It is therefore prudent to treat this condition as apotential loss of containment which would then escalate the emergency classification level to a General Emergency.

  1. 1 BasisThe use of the modifier "direct" in defining the release path discriminates againstrelease paths through interfacing liquid systems or minor release pathways, such asinstrument lines, not protected by the Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS).Leakage into a closed system is to be considered only if the closed system is breachedand thereby creates a significant pathway to the environment.

Examples includeunisolable Main Steamline, HPCI or RCIC steamline breaks, unisolable RWCU systembreaks, and unisolable containment atmosphere vent paths.Examples of "downstream pathway to the environment" could be through theTurbine/Condenser, or direct release to the Turbine or Reactor Building.

The existence of a filter is not considered in the threshold assessment.

Under theseconditions with a valid primary containment isolation signal, the containment should alsobe considered lost if primary containment venting is actually performed.

Intentional venting of primary containment for primary containment pressure orcombustible gas control to the secondary containment and/or the environment is a Lossof the Containment.

Venting for primary containment pressure control when not in anaccident situation (e.g., to control pressure below the dPywe!Drywell high pressurescram setpoint) does not meet the threshold condition.

(1) equipment necessary for the safe shutdown of the plant will fail, nor (2) personnel access necessary for thesafe shutdown of the plant will be precluded.

EOPs utilize these temperatures andradiation levels to establish conditions under which RPV depressurization is required.

The temperatures and radiation levels should be confirmed to be caused by RCSleakage from a primary system. A primary system is defined to be the pipes, valves, andother equipment which connect directly to the RPV such that a reduction in RPVpressure will effect a decrease in the steam or water being discharged through anunisolated break in the system.In general, multiple indications should be used to determine if a primary system isdischarging outside Primary Containment.

Basis:This IC addresses a significant loss of on-site,

-ef-offsite, or NRC communications capabilities.

While not a direct challenge to plant or personnel safety, this eventwarrants prompt notifications to Offsite Response Organizations (OROs) and the NRC.This IC should be assessed only when extraordinary means are being utilized to makecommunications possible (e.g., use of non-plant, privately owned equipment, relaying ofon-site information via individuals or multiple radio transmission points, individuals beingsent to offsite locations, etc.).EAL #1 BasisaAddresses a total loss of the communications methods used in support of routine plantoperations.

EAL #2 BasisaAddresses a total loss of the communications methods used to notify all OROs of anemergency declaration.

The OROs referred to here are listed in procedure EP-MA-1 14-100-F-01, State/Local Event Notification Form. (see DveepeF Notes).EAL #3 BasisaAddresses a total loss of the communications methods used to notify the NRC of anemergency declaration.
