  22. Nine Mile Point Unit 2SA HCVS Pilot Template Major Differences Review of Nine Mile Point Unit 2 Major Differences from Mark I pilot for Severe Accident HCVS OIP Template

  23. Hatch OIP Major Elements • Adding Site Characteristics important to HCVS • Control Building and Rx Building Layout • Main Stack and vent pipe locations • Time and Environmental Constraint Items • Rupture disc • HCVS Operation • Battery power actions • >24 Hour motive force

  24. NMP2 OIP Site Characteristics Important to HCVS • The primary location for HCVS operation will be the Main Control Room • The alternate location for HCVS operation will be the Reactor Building track bay, northeast side of Reactor Building, ground elevation • The HCVS release point will be at least 3 feet above the top of the Reactor Building on the northwest side of the Reactor Building

  26. NMP2 OIP

  27. Hatch OIP Major Elements • 7.3 Hours, Initiate use of Hardened Containment Vent System (HCVS) per site procedures to maintain containment parameters below design limits and within the limits that allow continued use of RCIC for mitigation in a BDBEE - HCVS controls and instruments associated with containment will be DC powered and operated from the MCR or a Remote Operating Station on each unit. Thus initiation of the HCVS from the MCR or the Remote Operating Station within 7.3 hours is acceptable because the actions can be performed any time after declaration of an ELAP (1 hour) until the venting is needed. In the event of Severe Accident HCVS initiation all required actions occur at a time further removed from an ELAP declaration than the BDBEE HCVS timeline as shown in Attachment 2.

  28. NMP2 OIP Differences Time and Environment Constraint Items • 2 Hours, Initiate use of Hardened Containment Vent System (HCVS) per site procedures to maintain containment parameters within the limits that allow continued use of RCIC. Initiation of the HCVS can be completed with manipulation of only 4 switches located within the MCR. The reliable operation of HCVS will be met because HCVS meets the seismic requirements identified in NEI 13-02 and will be powered by dedicated HCVS batteries with motive force supplied to HCVS valves from installed nitrogen storage bottles. HCVS controls and HCVS instrumentation will be provided from a dedicated panel in the MCR. Other containment parameter instrumentation associated with operation of the HCVS is available in the MCR. Operation of the system will be available from either the MCR or a ROS. Dedicated HCVS batteries will provide power for greater than 24 hours. Therefore, initiation of the HCVS from the MCR or the ROS within 2 hours is acceptable because of the simplicity and limited number of operator actions. Placing the HCVS in operation to maintain containment parameters within design limits for either BDBEE or SA venting would occur at a time further removed from ELAP declaration as shown on the sequence of events timeline on the previous slide

  29. Hatch OIP Major Elements • At >24 Hours, portable diesel generators will be installed and connected to the pigtail of the battery chargers to supply power to HCVS components/instruments; time critical at a time greater than 25 hours. Current battery durations are calculated to last greater than 26 hours. The connections, location of the DG and access for refueling will be located in an area that is accessible to operators in the Control Building or in the yard area because the HCVS vent pipe is underground once it leaves the Reactor Building. [OPEN ITEM 3: Evaluate location of Portable DG for accessibility under Severe Accident HCVS use]

  30. NMP2 OIP Differences Time and Environment Constraint Items (Cont’d) • 24 Hours, Replace/install additional nitrogen bottles or install compressor. The nitrogen station will have extra connections so that new bottles can be added or an air compressor can be connected while existing bottles supply the HCVS. This can be performed at any time prior to 24 hours to ensure adequate capacity is maintained so this time constraint is not limiting

  31. NMP2 OIP Differences Time and Environment Constraint Items (Cont’d) • 24 Hours, connect back-up power to HCVS battery charger. The HCVS batteries are calculated to last a minimum of 24 hours. The HCVS battery charger will be able to be re-powered either from the 600 VAC bus that will be re-powered from a portable diesel generator (DG) put in place for FLEX or locally (Reactor Building Track Bay) from a small portable generator • The DG will be staged and placed in service within 8 hours (Reference FLEX OIP) and therefore will be available prior to being required. In the event that the DG is not available, a local connection will allow a small portable generator to be connected to the UPS to provide power

  32. Hatch OIP Major Elements • Vent characteristics • Boundary valve use and cross flow • Remote operating station use • FLEX type actions • Electric power details • Milestone schedule

  34. NMP2 OIP Differences

  35. NMP2 OIP Differences Drywell piping and valve configuration shown for completeness, not for Phase 1 compliance

  36. NMP2 OIP Differences Equipment Usage • NMP2 will utilize a mixed system, sharing the following components • Containment penetrations • Inboard and Outboard PCIVs • Piping to HCVS vent tee • Boundary with interfacing systems limited to • 20” AOV to Standby Gas Treatment System (GTS) • 2” SOV bypass around 20” AOV to GTS

  37. NMP2 OIP Differences GDC-56 Exemption • The inboard primary containment isolation valves (PCIV) to be shared with the HCVS system are located inside the primary containment • Most plants implemented a GDC-56 exemption as part of the plant design basis for an alternate configuration • The inboard PCIV will be located outside the containment and thereby significantly improve the reliability of the HCVS system

  38. NMP2 OIP Differences Discharge Point • NMP2 will utilize a release point above the Reactor Building roof independent of the metrological stack • Follows criteria per FAQ HCVS-04

  39. NMP2 OIP Differences Power Supply • NMP2 HCVS system will be powered by the Divisional Class 1E 600 volt power through a transformer and 125 volt battery charger during normal operation • On loss of AC power, a battery capable of supplying HCVS loads for at least 24 hours will supply HCVS loads without Operator action • A FLEX portable diesel will be connected to repower the 600 volt power within 8 hours to repower the HCVS battery charger • A small portable 120/240 volt generator provides a backup to the FLEX diesel generator that will provide HCVS loads and battery charger through a manual transfer switch • Station batteries will not be utilized for HCVS loads

  40. NMP2 OIP Differences

  41. NMP2 OIP Differences Containment Protection Features • Inadvertent actuation protection is provided by keylock switches used to power up the HCVS panel • Additional keylock switches will be utilized for control of the shared HCVS/Primary Containment Isolation Valves (PCIVs) • The HCVS valve double solenoid valve arrangement eliminates the need for defeating containment isolation signals using electrical jumpers or lifted leads • There are no rupture discs in the NMP2 HCVS design

  42. NMP2 OIP Differences Remote Manual Mechanisms • Manual valves in the pneumatic supply lines will provide alternate means for HCVS valve operation • Electrical power is not required for this method • A manual override for HCVS valve solenoids is being considered • A handwheel for the PCV is being considered, but will not be credited due to environmental concerns in proximity to the valve

  43. Hatch OIP Major Elements • Portable equipment use • Without core damage • With core damage • Example Drawings • Electrical • Mechanical • Plant Layout

  46. BWROG Companion Guideline for NEI 13-02Progress between Workshops Pat Fallon - DTE Dennis Henneke - GEH BWR Vent Order Implementation Workshop II 4/9/14 • Baltimore, MD

  47. Introduction • The BWROG Implementation Guidelines supporting NEI 13-02 (referred to as the Companion Document) is developed to: • Provide guidance on “how to” meet the “what” requirements in NEI 13-02 and NRC Order EA-13-109. • Include discussion previously removed from 13-02, due to level of detail (e.g. Hydrogen Overpressure).

  48. BWROG Companion Document • Beginnings: • Started as discussion point during formulation of NEI-13-02 • NEI-13-02 was created to work with EA-13-109 to fully define acceptable equipment and man-machine interface to make a successful Severe Accident Capable Hardened Vent. • NEI-13-02 did NOT contain any “how to” elements for implementation. • NEI-13-02 was endorsed (largely) by the NRC due to multiple interface sessions with a small industry team and NEI. • NEI-13-02 needed to have additional industry input to create a workable method for HCVS implementation that would allow use of work conducted for EA-12-050 and still meet the intents of NEI-13-02.

  49. BWROG Companion Document • Thanks to the Authors: • Pat Fallon - DTE • Shayne Tenace - Exelon • Bob Cowen - GEH • David Burch - Entergy • Deep Ghosh - SNC • Bob Ginsberg – Duke Energy • Frank Loscalzo - TVA • Dennis Henneke - GEH • Scott Wood - Energy NW • Harold Trenka - Exelon • Phil Amway - Exelon • Keith Ward – Duke Energy • Glen Seeman – GEH • Rich Centenaro - PPL Also THANKS to the large group of reviewers and commenters.

  50. BWROG Companion Document • First Pass • Introduced the concept at first HCVS Workshop in Baltimore 11-13-2013. • Slides showed more of a wish list than any concrete method of creation of “how to” elements. • A few Items were not developed (Appendix J on Reliable Operator Actions) • A few new items were added (e.g. interface with FLEX) • Example slide on Section 5.0 follows.
