he staff will review the descriptive information in the FSAR covering the IST program for safety-related valves. For passive new reactors, the staff will review the descriptive information provided by the COL applicant in the FSAR for valves with RTNSS functions. B. The staff will review the applicant’s plans for testing valves defined by the ASME OM Code in Subsection ISTC, “Inservice Testing of Valves in Light-Water Reactor Nuclear Power Plants,” as Category A (valves with seat leakage limitations), Category B (valves where seat leakage is inconsequential), Category C (self-actuating valves), and Category D (one operation valves). C. The staff will review the applicant’s justifications for the schedules of cold shutdown and refueling outage tests. D. The staff will review the methods described in the FSAR for measuring the reference and inservice parameter values for power-operated valves (POVs), including MOVs, air-operated valves (AOVs), hydraulic-operated valves (HOVs), and solenoid-operated valves (SOVs). E. The staff will review the applicant’s plans for the qualification of valve testing equipment. F. The staff will review the valve IST table provided in the applicant’s FSAR or DCD. 5. Inservice Testing Program for Dynamic Restraints A. The staff will review the descriptive information in the FSAR covering the IST program for safety-related dynamic restraints. For passive new reactors, the staff will review the descriptive information provided by the COL applicant in the FSAR for dynamic restraints with RTNSS functions. 3.9.6-8 Revision 4 – March 2017 B. The staff will review the applicant’s plans for IST program activities related to dynamic restraints. Visual examination is required by the OM Code to check for degradation, missing parts, and leakage, and functional testing is necessary to assure operational readiness. In addition, the staff will review the applicant’s plans for Service Life Monitoring of dynamic restraints. The dynamic
