REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Organization responsible for the review of cooling water systems Secondary - None I. AREAS OF REVIEW The condensate storage facility (CSF) serves as a receiver for excess water generated by other systems—such as the main condenser hotwell, liquid radioactive waste system low-activity reprocessed condensate, and makeup water treatment system—and also functions as the water supply or makeup source for various auxiliary systems. Depending on its specific function in the plant under review, the CSF may or may not be safety related. The review performed by the responsible organization includes the CSF from the condensate storage tank up to the connections or interfaces with other systems to ensure conformance with the requirements of General Design Criteria (GDC) 2, 5, 44, 45, 46, and 60 and of 10 CFR 50.63. The specific areas of review are as follows: 1. The responsible organization reviews the capability of the CSF to supply water to various auxiliary systems and to receive return water from other systems. 2. The responsible organization reviews the CSF to verify the following: A. Failures of CSF components connected to the emergency core cooling system or other safety-related systems do not adversely affect the safety function of those safety-related systems. B. The safety-related portions of the CSF are protected from the effects of natural phenomena—including cold weather, tornadoes, and flooding—such that the event will not adversely affect the safety function of the system. 9.2.6-2 Revision 3 - March 2007 C. The safety-related portions of the CSF possess the component redundancy necessary to ensure the performance of CSF safety functions. D. System components meet design code requirements consistent with the component quality group and seismic design classifications. E. Provisions for mitigating the environmental effects of system leakage or storage tank failure are furnished. F. Provisions for the safe handling of storage
