CHAPTER 1 – INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PLANT
This Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) has been prepared with the guidance of RegulatoryGuide 1.70, Revision 3, Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for NuclearPower Plants, LWR Edition, dated November 1978. The report is intended to be responsive to theguide, to existing regulations, and to NUREG-75/087, Standard Review Plan for the Review ofSafety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants, LWR Edition.
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This report was submitted in support of an application by the companies listed in the GeneralInformation Section of the application (the Applicants) for a Class 103 permit for a facilityoperating license to operate a nuclear power plant, designated as Millstone Nuclear PowerStation - Unit 3 (Millstone 3). This plant is located on a site in the town of Waterford, NewLondon County, Connecticut, on the north shore of Long Island Sound.
Millstone 3 uses a pressurized water type nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) furnished byWestinghouse Electric Corporation (WNES) and a turbine-generator furnished by the GeneralElectric Company (GE). The remainder of the unit, including a subatmospheric reactorcontainment, was designed and constructed by the Applicants, with the assistance of theirrepresentative, Northeast Utilities Service Company (NUSCo.), and their architect-engineer,Stone & Webster Engineering Corporation (SWEC).
The core was originally designed for a warranted power output of 3,411 MWt, which was theoriginal license application rating. This output, combined with the reactor coolant pump heatoutput of 14 MWt, gave an NSSS warranted output of 3,425 MWt.
The core has been re-analyzed for a power output of 3,650 MWt which, when combined with therevised reactor coolant pump output of 16 MWt, gives a 100% NSSS power output of 3,666 MWt.
All steam and power conversion equipment, including the turbine-generator, has the capability togenerate a maximum calculated gross output of approximately 1,296 MWe. When the NSSS isoperating at its warranted output of 3,666 MWt, the net electrical output is approximately 1,245MWe.
The project schedule was based on a fuel loading date of November 1, 1985, and an anticipatedcommercial operation date of May 1, 1986. The Low Power License (5 percent) was issued by theNRC November 25, 1985, the Full Power License was issued January 31, 1986, and the Unitbecame commercially operational April 23, 1986.
In 2001, Millstone Units 1, 2 and 3 operating licenses were transferred from Northeast NuclearEnergy Company to Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC).
DNC is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Dominion Energy, which is in turn owned byDominion Resources, Inc. (DRI). Virginia Power, which is the licensed owner and operator of theNorth Anna and Surry nuclear stations, is also a subsidiary of DRI.
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.1-2
The transmission and distribution assets on the site will continue to be owned by ConnecticutLight and Power (CL&P) and will be operated under an Interconnection Agreement betweenCL&P and DNC.
The FSAR will retain references to Northeast Utilities and Northeast Nuclear Energy Companydocuments/activities when they are used in a historic context and are required to support the plantlicensing bases.
Upon license transfer, all records and design documents necessary for operation, maintenance,and decommissioning were transferred to DNC. Some of these drawings are included (orreferenced) in this FSAR. These drawings often have title blocks (or drawing numbers) which listNortheast Nuclear Energy Company or Northeast Utilities Service Company (et. al). In general,no changes to these title blocks will be made at this time. Based on this general note, thesedrawings shall be read as if the title blocks list Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc.
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-1
1.2 GENERAL PLANT DESCRIPTION
This section includes a summary description of the principal characteristics of the site and aconcise description of Millstone 3.
1.2.1 GENERAL
Millstone 3 incorporates a four loop closed cycle pressurized water type nuclear steam supplysystem (NSSS); a turbine generator and electrical systems; engineered safety features; radioactivewaste systems; fuel handling systems; structures and other on site facilities; instrumentation andcontrol systems; and the necessary auxiliaries required for a complete and operable nuclear powerstation. The site plan (Figure 2.1.4) and the plot plan (Figure 1.2–2) show the generalarrangement of the unit.
Piping and instrumentation diagrams are included throughout this document with the appropriatesystem descriptions. Symbols and abbreviations used in the diagrams are illustrated onFigure 1.2–3.
With respect to the numbers, graphs, and drawings included within this report, the normaltolerance permitted by good engineering practice is intended. Where operating parameters areunusually important, such items have been included in the technical specifications.
1.2.2 SITE
The site, approximately 500 acres in area, is on the north shore of Long Island Sound and on theeast side of Niantic Bay. It is located in the Town of Waterford, Connecticut, about 3.2 miles west-southwest of New London and about 40 miles southeast of Hartford. The surrounding area isprimarily residential with some commercial and industrial uses.
Millstone 1 and 2 are also located on the site. Millstone 1 is a permanently defueled boiling waterreactor. Millstone 2 uses a two-loop pressurized water reactor supplied by CombustionEngineering, Inc., with a rated thermal power level of 2,700 MW; the architect-engineer wasBechtel Corporation. Section 2.1 contains a more detailed description of the site and surroundingareas.
1.2.3 STRUCTURES
Millstone 3 major structures are the containment structure, auxiliary building, fuel building(including decontamination facilities), waste disposal building, engineered safety featuresbuilding, main steam valve building, turbine building, service building, control building, technicalsupport center, emergency generator enclosure, containment enclosure building, warehouse 5(including the condensate polishing waste treatment facility), auxiliary boiler enclosure, andcirculating and service water pumphouse. Section 3.8.4.1 describes the general arrangement ofthese structures.
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-2
The reactor is operated inside a reinforced concrete containment structure maintained at asubatmospheric pressure between 10.6 and 14.0 psia. The containment concept is similar to thoseof Surry Power Stations 1 and 2, North Anna Power Stations 1 and 2, and Beaver Valley PowerStation 1. Following the loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA), described in Section 15.6.5, thecontainment remains above atmospheric pressure.
The containment structure is housed within the containment enclosure building, which along withstructures adjacent to the containment, forms the boundary of the supplementary leak collectionand release system (SLCRS). The SLCRS establishes a subatmospheric pressure in thecontainment enclosure building and contiguous structures. See Section 6.2.3 for a furtherdescription.
The seismic criteria used in the design of the structures and equipment for Millstone 3 aredescribed in Section 3.7.
1.2.4 NUCLEAR STEAM SUPPLY SYSTEM
The nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) consists of a Westinghouse pressurized water-typereactor and four closed reactor coolant loops connected in parallel to the reactor vessel. Each loopcontains a reactor coolant pump and a steam generator, two loop isolation valves, an isolationbypass valve, and a bypass line. The NSSS also contains an electrically heated pressurizer andauxiliary systems.
High pressure water circulates through the reactor core to remove heat generated by the nuclearchain reaction. The heated water exits from the reactor vessel and passes via the coolant looppiping to the steam generators. Here, it releases heat to the feedwater to generate steam for theturbine generator. The cycle is completed when the water is pumped back to the reactor vessel.The entire coolant system is composed of leaktight components to ensure that all fluids areconfined to the system.
The reactor core is of the multi-region type. All fuel reactor assemblies are mechanicallyidentical, although the fuel enrichment is not the same in all assemblies. These assembliesincorporate the rod cluster control concept in canless 17 x 17 fuel rod assemblies using a springclip grid to provide support for the fuel rods. The reactor moderator has a negative temperaturecoefficient of reactivity at full power at all times throughout core life.
In the typical initial core loading, three fuel enrichments are used. Fuel assemblies with thehighest enrichments are placed in the reactor core outer region, and the two groups of lowerenrichment fuel assemblies are arranged in a selected pattern in the central region. In subsequentrefuelings, one-third of the fuel is discharged from the central region and fresh fuel is loaded intothe outer region of the reactor core. The remaining fuel is arranged in the central two-thirds of thereactor core in such a manner as to achieve optimum power distribution.
Rod cluster control assemblies are used for reactor control and consist of clusters of cylindricalabsorber rods. The absorber rods move within guide tubes in certain fuel assemblies. Above thereactor core, each cluster of absorber rods is attached to a spider connector and drive shaft, which
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-3
is raised and lowered by a drive mechanism mounted on the reactor vessel head. Downwardmovement of the rod cluster control after trip is by gravity.
The reactor coolant pumps are vertical, single-stage, centrifugal pumps of the shaft-seal type.
The steam generators are Westinghouse Model F vertical U-tube units which contain Inconeltubes. The Model F steam generator includes features such as improved tube support plate designand high circulation ratio which are designed to minimize most forms of corrosion, sludgebuildup, and chemical attack. Integral moisture separation equipment reduces the moisture ofsteam to one-quarter percent or less.
All of the pressure containing and heat transfer surfaces in contact with reactor water are stainlesssteel clad or stainless steel except the steam generator tubes and fuel tubes, which are Inconel andZircaloy, respectively. Reactor core internals, including control rod drive shafts, are primarilystainless steel.
There are two double-disc, motor-operated, loop isolation valves in each loop, one locatedbetween the reactor vessel and the steam generator and the other between the reactor vessel andthe reactor coolant pump of each of the four loops. The isolation bypass valves, also double-disc,motor-operated valves, are located in a bypass line connecting the two loop isolation valves ineach loop.
An electrically heated pressurizer connected to one reactor coolant loop maintains reactor coolantsystem pressure during normal operation, limits pressure variations during plant load transients,and keeps system pressure within design limits during abnormal conditions. In addition, itprovides indication of and maintains reactor coolant system water inventory.
The auxiliary systems, provided as part of the NSSS, charge the reactor coolant system and addmakeup water, purify reactor coolant water, provide chemicals for corrosion inhibition andreactivity control, remove decay heat when the reactor is shut down, and provide for emergencysafety injection.
Other auxiliary systems supporting the NSSS but not part of the NSSS provide the following:
1. System components cooling
2. Fuel pool cooling
3. Reactor coolant water and other auxiliary system fluid sampling
4. Venting and draining the reactor coolant system and other auxiliary systems
5. Emergency containment depressurization spray and combustible gas control
6. Maintaining the containment atmosphere pressure at sub-atmospheric levels
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-4
7. Collecting, processing, and disposing of liquid and gaseous wastes
8. Preparation of solid wastes for disposal
9. Process, store, and supply reactor coolant system boric acid
10. Component ventilation
11. Instrument and valve operator air
1.2.5 INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL SYSTEMS
The instrumentation and control for the reactor protection system, engineered safety featuresactuation system, and other safety related systems meet the requirements of IEEE 279-1971,“Criteria for Protection System for Nuclear Power Generating System.” In addition, otherapplicable criteria are met as described in Sections 3.1 and 7.1.2.
The nonsafety related instrumentation and controls accomplish reliable control and allowmonitoring of the plant status without degradation of safety related instrumentation. Section 7.7describes the design details.
The reactor is controlled by a coordinated combination of chemical shim, mechanical controlrods, and temperature coefficients of reactivity. The control system allows the unit to accept stepload changes of 10 percent and ramp load changes of 5 percent per minute over the load range of15 percent to 100 percent power under nominal operating conditions subject to xenon limitations.
Control of the reactor and the turbine generator is accomplished from the control room, whichcontains all instrumentation and control equipment required for startup, operation, and shutdown,including normal and accident conditions. The turbine generator controls are designed for manualoperation; the operator selects the load setpoint and loading rate. The NSSS automatically followsthe turbine generator, on decreasing power, from loads of 100 to 15 percent power. The operatortakes manual action to match the NSSS to the turbine generator load, for load increases between15% and 100% power. If, during rapid turbine generator loading (5 percent per minute), theresponse of the control rods and chemical shim is not adequate to supply the needed reactivity, thereactor coolant temperature automatically drops to supply more reactivity. If a reactor coolant lowoperating temperature is reached, turbine generator loading is stopped automatically.
1.2.6 RADIOACTIVE WASTE SYSTEMS
Radioactive wastes are collected, processed, and disposed of in a safe manner complying withappropriate regulations, in particular, NRC Regulations 10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 50 Appendix I, 10CFR 61, 10 CFR 71, 49 CFR 171-178, 10 CFR 100, and General Design Criteria 60 and 64(Sections 3.1.2.60 and 3.1.2.64). There are three interrelated radioactive waste treatment systems:radioactive liquid waste, radioactive gaseous waste, and radioactive solid waste. Chapter 11describes these systems.
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-5
The radioactive liquid waste system (LWS) collects, classifies, and processes all radioactive wasteliquids generated during plant operation and refueling, either for recycle within the plant or fordischarge off site. The process operations available to treat the liquid wastes are filtration anddemineralization. The process descriptions and flow diagrams illustrate the number and sequenceof processing steps to be applied to each type of liquid waste (Section 11.2).
Gaseous wastes, consisting of hydrogen streams and air streams containing various levels ofradioactivity, are treated before release to the environment. Through the use of degasification andpurification of reactor coolant letdown, the consequences of any reactor coolant leakage areminimized. This degasification and purification process produces hydrogen waste gas streams,which are passed through charcoal decay beds to provide adequate holdup time for the decay ofnoble gases and the removal of iodines. The decay beds are followed by high efficiencyparticulate air filters to ensure particulate removal. Aerated waste gas streams, produced by otherphases of unit operation, are released to the environment via the Millstone stack. A process flowdiagram, illustrating the processing steps for gaseous waste, appears in Section 11.3.
The radioactive solid waste system provides holdup, packaging, and storage facilities for theeventual off site shipment and ultimate disposal of solid radioactive waste material. Availableprocess operations are: solidification of liquid wastes, holdup for decay, sluicing and dewateringof resins, encapsulation of miscellaneous solid wastes, and compacting of compressibles.Provisions for shielding during the processing and shipment of solid wastes are included in thedesign of the radioactive solid waste system. A process flow diagram illustrates the processingand handling sequences for solid wastes generated by the plant (Section 11.4).
1.2.7 FUEL HANDLING
The reactor is refueled by equipment designed to handle spent fuel under water from the time thespent fuel leaves the reactor vessel until the spent fuel is placed in a cask for shipment from thesite. Underwater transfer of spent fuel provides an optically transparent radiation shield as well asa reliable source of coolant for the removal of decay heat produced by the spent fuel. New fuel istransferred to the fuel pool using the new fuel handling crane and is loaded into the reactor usingthe same equipment that handles the spent fuel. (Section 9.1.4)
1.2.8 TURBINE GENERATOR AND AUXILIARIES
The turbine is a tandem-compound, six-flow, 1,800 rpm unit with 43 inch last stage blades. Twocombination moisture separator-reheaters remove moisture and superheat the steam between thehigh and low pressure turbines. The turbine generator is discussed, in detail, in Section 10.2.
The turbine generator plant and associated steam and power conversion systems are capable of a40 percent load rejection without producing a reactor trip. This is accomplished by dumpingsteam into the condenser through the turbine bypass system which reduces the transient to withinthe NSSS transient response capability.
The turbine control system is an electrohydraulic control (EHC) system capable of remote manualor automatic control of acceleration and loading of the unit at preset rates, and holding speed and
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-6
load at a preset level. The EHC provides a normal overspeed protection system and an emergencyoverspeed protection system to limit turbine overspeed.
A single-pass deaerating surface condenser installed in three sections, two 100 percent designcapacity steam jet air ejector units, three 50 percent design capacity condensate pumps, threesteam generator feedwater pumps (two turbine-driven and one motor-driven), two 50 percentdesign capacity motor-driven and one 100 percent design capacity turbine-driven steam generatorauxiliary feedwater pumps, three trains of feedwater heaters, each having six stages, and a fullflow condensate demineralizer polishing system are provided. Any combination of two steamgenerator feedwater pumps is adequate to support 100% power operation. Condenser circulatingwater is provided by six circulating water pumps. The turbine plant component cooling systemprovides cooling water for lubricating oil coolers, generator hydrogen coolers, and other turbineplant auxiliary heat loads.
1.2.9 ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS
The electric power system includes the electrical equipment and connections required to generateand deliver electric power to the 345 kV system. This system also includes station serviceelectrical equipment to provide electric power to support station auxiliaries during normaloperation, startup, shutdown, and accident conditions.
The major component in the system is the turbine-driven main generator. The electric poweroutput from this generator is stepped up in a transformer bank and delivered to the 345 kVswitchyard for distribution to the utility grid.
The station service equipment consists of switchgear, load centers, motor control centers, ac vitaland nonvital buses, and battery systems. The normal source of station service power is providedby the main generator through normal station service transformers. Startup and shutdown stationservice power is provided by a preferred off site source from the 345 kV switchyard through themain and normal station service transformers with the generator breaker open, or by thealternative off site source from the 345 kV switchyard through the reserve station servicetransformers. In the event of an accident with loss of both normal and off site sources, an on siteemergency power system, consisting of two redundant diesel engine-driven generators, providespower to the emergency 4,160V buses within 11 seconds after receiving a start signal. Thesediesel engine-driven generators are sized to provide required power to all safety relatedequipment.
1.2.10 ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES
Engineered safety features (ESF) are provided to mitigate the consequences of postulatedaccidents including a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) resulting from large and small pipe breaks.The ESF systems provided for Millstone 3 have sufficient redundancy and independence ofcomponents and power sources so that, under the conditions of the postulated accident, the
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-7
systems maintain the integrity of the containment structure and accomplish the following evenwhen operating with a postulated single active failure:
1. Prevent radiation release to the outside environment from exceeding the limit specified in 10 CFR 50.67.
2. Provide core cooling to prevent excessive metal-water reaction, to limit the core thermal transient, and to maintain the core in a coolable geometry.
Millstone 3 is independent of Millstone 1 and 2 with respect to ESF. The systems provided forMillstone 3 are summarized below.
Containment Structure
The steel lined reinforced concrete containment structure provides a barrier against the escape offission products. It is designed to operate at approximately atmospheric pressure and canwithstand the pressures and temperatures resulting from a spectrum of LOCAs and secondarysystem breaks. The containments response following the accident is similar to other atmosphericPWRs. The structure and all penetrations, including access openings, are of proven design(Section 6.2.1).
Emergency Core Cooling System
The emergency core cooling system (ECCS) provides borated water to cool the reactor corefollowing a major LOCA. This is accomplished by the automatic injection of water from thesafety injection accumulators into the reactor coolant loops and by the automatic pumping of aportion of the refueling water storage tank contents into the loops via the charging pumps, thesafety injection pumps, and the residual heat removal pumps. After the injection mode ofemergency core cooling, long term core cooling is maintained by recirculating the water from thecontainment structure sump by the containment recirculation pumps, through the containmentrecirculation coolers, and into the reactor coolant loops directly and via the charging and safetyinjection pumps (Section 6.3).
Containment Heat Removal System
The containment heat removal system consists of the quench spray and the containmentrecirculation systems. Following the postulated DBA, the containment pressure is reduced byemploying both systems.
The quench spray system sprays borated water from the refueling water storage tank (RWST).
The recirculation spray system draws suction from the containment sump, the content of whichconsists of the primary or secondary system effluent and the quench spray.
The sump water pH is controlled to be above 7.0 to improve effectiveness of fission productsremoval (Section 6.5.2), and for materials compatibility (Section 6.1.1).
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-8
The pH is controlled by the dissolution of trisodium phosphate crystals (stored in baskets) in thecontainment sump water.
Supplementary Leak Collection and Release System
Following a postulated accident, particulate and gaseous radioactive material is ducted from thecontainment enclosure structure and the buildings contiguous to the containment structure to thesupplementary leak collection and release system (SLCRS), where it is filtered and discharged tothe atmosphere through an elevated stack rather than through a ground-level vent. SLCRS is notcredited for a postulated fuel handling accident.
Containment Isolation System
The containment isolation system isolates piping lines which penetrate the containment boundaryso that, in the event of a LOCA, radioactivity is not released to the environment through theselines.
The lines are either isolated passively (check valves or locked closed manual valves) or isolatedautomatically by receipt of a safety injection signal (SIS), a containment isolation (phase A andB) signal, or a steamline isolation (SLI) signal (Section 6.2.4).
Engineered Safety Features Actuation System
The engineered safety features actuation system (ESFAS) monitors selected parameters anddetermines whether predetermined safety limits have been exceeded. If they have been exceeded,the ESFAS initiates action to mitigate the abnormal occurrence (Chapter 7).
Habitability Systems
The Millstone 3 control room envelope is equipped with an intake isolation system designed toprotect the plant operators from the presence of hazardous substances outside the control roomenvelope.
Control room envelope makeup air is supplied via redundant air filtration trains designed to meetthe requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.52 (Section 6.4).
Inservice Inspection
All ASME Section III, Code Class 1, 2, and 3 systems and components which require inserviceinspection and testing are designed, fabricated, and erected to meet the inspection requirements ofASME Section XI (except where specific written relief has been granted by the Commissionpursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a). The inservice inspection program includes baseline preserviceexamination and periodic inservice inspection and testing to ensure the operability and integrityof all systems classified Class 1, 2, and 3 pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a (Sections 5.2.4 and 6.6).
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.2-9

1.3 COMPARISON TABLES
1.3.1 COMPARISON WITH SIMILAR FACILITY DESIGNS
Principal features of the design of Millstone 3 at the time of application for an operating licensewere similar to those that were evaluated and approved by the NRC staff for other reactors underconstruction, operation, or review. Comparison of notable similarities and differences to NorthAnna 1 and 2, Surry 1 and 2, Comanche Peak 1 and 2, W. B. McGuire 1 and 2, Maine Yankee, andTrojan was provided in a series of comparison tables in this section. This section is retained forhistorical purposes.
The design of this facility was based on proven technology attained during the development,design, construction, and operation of pressurized water reactors of similar or identical types. Thedata, performance characteristics, and other information represented a standard design that wasengineered for the particular requirements of the utility system and site characteristics.
1.3.1.1 Comparison of Nuclear Steam Supply System
A design comparison of major parameters or features of Millstone 3 with similar plants waspresented in Table 1.3-1. The following plants were used in the comparison:
1. Comanche Peak Units 1 and 2, Docket Number 55-445, -446
2. W.B. McGuire Units 1 and 2, Docket Number 50-369, -370
3. Trojan, Docket Number 50-344
1.3.1.2 Comparison of Engineered Safety Features
Table 1.3-2 compared the design data for the Millstone 3 engineered safety features (ESF)systems with similar systems in Trojan (for NSSS scope of supply - ECCS), and North AnnaPower Station Units 1 and 2 (for balance of plant). The ESF systems compared were theemergency core cooling, containment depressurization, hydrogen recombiner, and supplementaryleak collection and release systems.
These units were chosen for comparison because Millstone 3 systems were similar in design.Trojan and North Anna 1 and 2 obtained operating licenses and are currently in commercialoperation.
1.3.1.3 Comparison of Containment Concepts
Table 1.3-3 summarized the design and operating parameters described in Section 6.2.1 for theMillstone 3 containment concept. The table provided a comparison with similar data forsubatmospheric containments from the FSAR for North Anna 1 and 2, and the FSAR for Surry 1and 2. These references were selected because the units used the Stone & Webster subatmosphericcontainment design. Surry 1 and 2 and North Anna 1 and 2 are in commercial operation.
Revision 33—06/30/20 MPS-3 FSAR 1.3-2
1.3.1.4 Comparison of Instrumentation Systems
Tables 1.3-4 through 1.3-10 compared Millstone 3 instrumentation with similar instrumentation inNorth Anna 1 and 2. These units were chosen for the comparison because they haveinstrumentation similar in design to that of Millstone 3, they have obtained operating licenses, andare currently in commercial operation.
1.3.1.5 Comparison of Electrical Systems
Table 1.3-11 compared the Millstone 3 electrical system parameters with similar systems ofMillstone 2 and Maine Yankee Atomic Power Station. The electrical systems compared were the345 kV transmission, ac power, ac vital bus, 125 volt DC, and emergency power systems. Theseunits were chosen for the comparison because they have electrical systems similar in design toMillstone 3. They have obtained operating licenses, and they are currently in commercialoperation.
1.3.1.6 Comparison of Radioactive Waste Systems
Tables 1.3-12, 1.3-13, and 1.3-14 compared the radioactive waste systems features for Millstone 3with similar systems in North Anna 1 and 2 and Surry 1 and 2. These units were chosen for thecomparison, because they had radioactive waste systems similar in design to Millstone 3, haveobtained operating licenses, and are currently in commercial operation.
1.3.1.7 Comparison of Other Reactor Plant Systems
Table 1.3-15 summarized the final design and operating parameters for the major reactor plantsystems. This table compared the Millstone 3 data with systems data in similar nuclear powerplants (North Anna 1 and 2).
1.3.2 COMPARISON OF FINAL AND PRELIMINARY DESIGNS
Table 1.3-16 detailed the significant design changes that were made since the submittal of thePSAR, through the issuance of the operating license.
