SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION UNIT2
PUMP AND VALVEINSERVICE'INSPECTIONTESTING PROGRAM
PROGRAM SUMMARY
The pump and valve ISI testing program at the Susquehanna SES Unit 1 will be conducted inaccordance with the 1989 Edition of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.ASME/ANSI OM Standard Part 6 and Part 10 of OMa-1988 are incorporated by reference. Theseare the latest ASME Code editions/addenda endorsed by 10CFR50.55{a)(f), "Inservice TestingRequirements". Specific exceptions &om these requirements are included here as Relief Requests,as allowed per 10CFR50.55a(fj(5)(iii). The second 10 year interval of the program commences onJune 01, 1994, as established by PP&L Letter PLA-3746, dated 4/09/92.
Pumps within the scope of this program are listed in the Pump Table, with pertinent data. Valveswithin the scope of this program are listed in the Valve Tables, organized by P &IDnumber, alongwith their pertinent data. A legend is provided for the explanation of column headings, assignedcodes, and other terminology employed in each table.
For valves so equipped, remote position indicators willbe utilized to demonstrate valve operability.Proper functioning of these position indicators willbe demonstrated at least once every 24 months.Safety valve and relief valve pressure setpoint testing will be conducted in compliance withASME/ANSIOM Standard Part 1 ofOM-1987.
With the exception ofvalves providing a high pressure to low pressure boundary (pressure isolationfunction), valve leakage rate testing and acceptance criteria for containment isolation valves willbebased on 10CFR50 Appendix J requirements as discussed in FSAR Subsection 6.2.6 andSusquehanna SES Technical Specification 3/4.6.1.2. Susquehanna was given permission in July1996 to implement Appendix J, Option B. The Valve Tables in this Program Plan may indicate a2Y or RF frequency, although testing frequencies for Appendix J leakage tests are actually based onthe &equency determined by the Appendix J, Option 8 program.
Testing procedures performed to satisfy Inservice Testing requirements are written, performed anddispositioned in accordance with the Surveillance Testing Program.
Check valves whose safety function is to open willbe full-stroke tested. Since disc position usuallyis not observable, verification of the safety analysis design flowrate through the valve is consideredan adequate demonstration of the full-stroke requirement. This convention is in agreement withNRC Generic Letter 89-04, Position l.

Check valves that are not capable ofbeing full-stroke tested willbe disassembled and inspected perthe guidelines in Generic Letter 89-04, Position 2. All Generic Letter 89-04 check valves aredocumented in specific Relief Requests in this Program Plan. Generic Letter 89-04 established thata sample inspection plan for groups of up to four identical valves in similar applications may beemployed within the NRC guidelines specified in Position 2. The response to NUREG-1482Comment 4.1-3 states that it is acceptable to group valves &om multiple units ifthe two units are"identical", ifthe units willbe subjected to the same service conditions, and ifthe valves otherwisemeet the grouping criteria. Those groupings that utilize valves &om both units are designated in theRelief Request text. The frequency of testing is specified as one valve to be disassembed andinspected once every "refuel cycle combination". A refuel cycle combination is the time &arne&om the start of a Unit 1 Outage to the completion of the subsequent Unit 2 Outage. An example
'f
a refuel cycle combination was the Unit 1 9RIO (Fall 1996) and Unit 2 8RIO (Spring 1997).
Limit stroke times for power operated valves are provided and controlled in a general plantprocedure in accordance with the NRC guidance provided by "Minutes of the Public Meetings onGeneric Letter 89-04" (NRC Response to Question 38). Limit stroke times for power operatedvalves are calculated from the stroke time reference values in Engineering Specification M-1437 forUnit 2 valves.
Where devices monitoring appropriate parameters exist, permanently installed instrumentation willbe used during pump performance testing. Both permanent plant instrumentation and measuringand test equipment will be maintained by the Instrumentation and Controls Section in accordancewith their administrative procedures.
For those requirements of the Code which are impractical to test, Relief Requests have beenincluded in the program, as allowed per 10CFR50.55a(f)(5)(iii). These Relief Requests provide theimpractical test requirement, basis for relief and the proposed alternative testing. To explain thetesting of valves impractical to test at quarterly frequency, Cold Shutdown Test Justifications andRefueling Outage Test Justifications have been included in the program, per OMa-1988 Part 10,paragraphs 4.2.1.2 and 4.3.2.2.

operation and is oAen maintained inert throughout cold shutdowns.Operation of the equipment serviced by these valves (ADS function of thesafety/relief valves) would not verify their proper opening since theaccumulators at the SRV operators provide capacity for several lifts.Performing any SRV liAs in an attempt to verify check valve openingwould increase the potential for SRV leakage or failure to reseat, wouldimpact proper maintenance of reactor pressure control during poweroperations, and would have the potential for degradation of the ADSfunction. For those reasons, no ADS SRV's are exercised during poweroperations nor during any cold shutdowns.
Valve closure is demonstrated by completion of leak rate testingperformed once per refueling cycle. Verification of the openingcapability of valves 226152 and 226154 will also be performed at thattime with an air pressure applied through the outboard test valves(226021, 226031), opening the inboard test valves (226155, 226153), todemonstrate passage ofmaximum accident condition flow.

. Performance ofthis testing would render the RCIC system inoperable fora period of approximately 10-12 hours. While RCIC is not an ECCSsystem, it is important to safety and can provide an additional margin forprevention or mitigation of reactor transients. More frequentperformance represents an unnecessary burden on the licensee, and is indirect conflict with the Station's philosophy on removal ofsafety systemsfrom service for work that does not enhance system reliability. Also,from a Maintenance Rule Implementation perspective, voluntarily takingequipment out of service for quarterly testing will impact our ability tomaintain system available at an acceptable level.

Function: Admitflowto fuel storage pool.
Impractical Test Requirement: Exercise valves once per 92 days.
Basis for Relief: In an alternative flowpath to the fuel storage pool, exercising of these valves
utilizing flow can only be accomplished utilizingESW or RHR water. Use
of ESW would introduce "raw" water from the ESSW spray pond,undesirable for chemistry and fuel integrity considerations. While use of the
RHR flowpath is possible, the difficultyof operating the RHR system in an
abnormal lineup for supplying the fuel pool creates a dynamic. controlsituation that is best minimized.
NRC Generic Letter 89-04 Position 2 establishes that disassembly and
inspection of check valves may be used as a positive means of determiningthat a valve's disk will"full-stroke" open or of verifying closure capability,as permitted by ASME Code. The Generic Letter establishes that a sampleinspection plan for groups of up to four identical valves in similarapplications may be employed within the NRC guidelines specified withinPosition 2. For these Fuel Pool Cooling valves, the sampling group willconsist oftwo valves from each unit for a total of four identical valves.
Alternative Testing: Perform partial valve stroke exercise testing by a pneumatic open flow pathtest during periodic pressure test. A pneumatic open flowpath test (SE-235-
301) is performed once per Inspection Period (as specified by ASME Code
Section XIparagraph IWD-2400).
Full stroke operability will be verified by inspection during valvedisassembly. The licensee will disassemble, inspect, verify structuralsoundness of.internal components, and manually exercise the disk throughits'ull stroke for one different valve in the group once every refuel cyclecombination, with each valve being inspected once every 96 months.

Function: Prevent reverse flow out through keepfill line.
Impractical Test Requirement: Exercise valves once per 92 days.
Basis for Deferment: Pursuant to 10CFR50.55a(f)(i), relief is requested from the
requirements ofASME Code Section XI, OM-1987 Part 10,
Paragraph 4.3.2.1. These 2" check valves, located in keepfilllines for the Core Spray System provide Condensate Transfer
System water flow into their respective headers while preventing.flow ofprocess water in the reverse direction during Core Spray
System operation. In the Core Spray system, a single test
connection exists upstream of the two check valves, which are
located very close together. This configuration would support onlydual testing ofeach pair of Core Spray System check valves incombination. Compliance with the Code requirement is impracticalbecause ofdesign limitations, since there is no practical means to
verify the operational readiness of each component as intended bythe Code. Additionally, the safety analysis for the plant was
reviewed and it was not confirmed that a single check valve wa's
credited for meeting the analysis.
NRC Generic Letter 89-04 Position 2 establishes that disassembly
and inspection ofcheck valves may be used as a positive means ofdetermining that a valve's disk will"full-stroke" open or ofverifying closure capability, as permitted by ASME Code. Due to

Another positive means to measure full-flowis during ESW SystemFlow Balance Test TP-054-076, which is conducted once every 3years. During this testing, temporary instrumentation is installedwhich is capable ofaccurately measuring the flowrates and verifyingthat "maximum required accident condition flow" is achieved.Based on the maintenance history of the valves, the alternative todisassemble these valves is the preferred method to determine full-flowat this point in time.
