COLR for CPNPP Unit 1 Cycle 15 2.0 OPERATING LIMITS The cycle-specific parameter limits for the specifications listed in Section 1.0 are presented in the following subsections. These limits have been developed using the NRC-approved methodologies specified in Technical Specification 5.6.5b, Items 1 through 4 and 7 through 15.

These limits have been determined such that all applicable limits of the safety analysis are met.

2.1 SAFETY LIMITS (SL 2.1) 2.1.1 In MODES 1 and 2, the combination of thermal power, reactor coolant system highest loop average temperature, and pressurizer pressure shall not exceed the safety limits specified in Figure 1.

2.2 SHUTDOWN MARGIN (SDM) (LCO 3.1.1) 2.2.1 The SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.3% Ak/k in MODE 2 with K.ff < 1.0, and in MODES 3, 4, and 5.

2.3 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (MTC) (LCO 3.1.3) 2.3.1 The MTC upper and lower limits, respectively, are:

The BOL/ARO/HZP-MTC shall be less positive than +5 pcm/'F.

The EOL/ARO/RTP-MTC shall be less negative than -40 pcm/°F.

COLR for CPNPP Unit 1 Cycle 15 2.3.2 SR 3.1.3.2 The MTC surveillance limit is:

The 300 ppm/ARO/RTP-MTC shall be less negative than or equal to -31 pcm/"F.

The 60 ppm/ARO/RTP-MTC shall be less negative than or equal to -38 pcm/ F.

2.5 SHUTDOWN BANK INSERTION LIMITS (LCO 3.1.5) 2.5.1 The shutdown rods shall be fully withdrawn. Fully withdrawn shall be the condition where shutdown rods are at a position within the interval of 218 and 231 steps withdrawn, inclusive.

3 ERX-10-002, Rev. 1

COLR for CPNPP Unit 1 Cycle 15 2.6 CONTROL BANK INSERTION LIMITS (LCO 3.1.6) 2.6.1 The control banks shall be limited in physical insertion as shown in Figure 2.

2.6.2 The control banks shall always be withdrawn and inserted in the prescribed sequence. For withdrawal, the sequence is control bank A, control bank B, control bank C, and control bank D. The insertion sequence is the reverse of the withdrawal sequence.

2.6.3 A 115 step Tip-to-Tip relationship between each sequential control bank shall be maintained.

2.7 PHYSICS TESTS EXCEPTIONS - MODE 2 (LCO 3.1.8) 2.7.1 The SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.3% Ak/k in MODE 2 during PHYSICS TESTS.

COLR for CPNPP Unit 1 Cycle 15 RTP 2.8.2 FQ = 2.50 2.8.3 K(Z) is provided in Figure 3.

2.8.4 Elevation and burnup dependent W(Z) values are provided in Figures 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. For W(Z) data at a desired burnup not listed in the figures, but less than the maximum listed burnup, values at 3 or more burnup steps should be used to interpolate the W(Z) data to the desired burnup with a polynomial type fit that uses the nearest three burnup steps. For W(Z) data at a desired burnup outside of the listed burnup steps, a linear extrapolation of the W(Z) data for the nearest two burnup steps can be used.

2.8.5 SR 3.2.1.2 If the two most recent FQ(Z) evaluations show an increase in the expression maximum over Z [ FQC(Z) / K(Z) ],

the burnup dependent values in Table 1 shall be used instead of a constant 2% to increase F (Z) per Surveillance Requirement 3.2.1.2.a. A constant factor of 2% shall be used for all cycle burnups that are outside the range of Table 1.

COLR for CPNPP Unit 1 Cycle 15 2.12 RCS PRESSURE, TEMPERATURE, AND FLOW DEPARTURE FROM NUCLEATE BOILING (DNB) LIMITS (LCO 3.4.1) 2.12.1 RCS DNB parameters for pressurizer pressure, RCS average temperature, and RCS total flow rate shall be within the surveillance limits specified below:

2.12.2 SR 3.4.1.1 Pressurizer pressure 2 2220 psig (4 channels) 2 2222 psig (3 channels)

The pressurizer pressure limits correspond to the analytical limit of 2205 psig used in the safety analysis with allowance for measurement uncertainty. These uncertainties are based on the use of control board indications and the number of available channels.

2.12.3 SR 3.4.1.2 RCS average temperature 5 588 °F (4 channels) 5 588 °F (3 channels)

The RCS average temperature limits correspond to the analytical limit of 591.9 'F which is bounded by that used in the safety analysis with allowance for measurement uncertainty. These uncertainties are based on the use of control board indications and the number of available channels.

COLR for CPNPP Unit 2 Cycle 12 2.0 OPERATING LIMITS The cycle-specific parameter limits for the specifications listed in Section 1.0 are presented in the following subsections. These limits have been developed using the NRC-approved methodologies specified in Technical Specification 5.6.5b, Items 1 through 4 and 7 through 15.

These limits have been determined such that all applicable limits of the safety analysis are met.

2.1 SAFETY LIMITS (SL 2.1) 2.1.1 In MODES 1 and 2, the combination of thermal power, reactor coolant system highest loop average temperature, and pressurizer pressure shall not exceed the safety limits specified in Figure 1.

2.2 SHUTDOWN MARGIN (SDM) (LCO 3.1.1) 2.2.1 The SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.3% Ak/k in MODE 2 with Kef, < 1.0, and in MODES 3, 4, and 5.

2.3 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (MTC) (LCO 3.1.3) 2.3.1 The MTC upper and lower limits, respectively, are:

The BOL/ARO/HZP-MTC shall be less positive than +5 pcm/'F.

The EOL/ARO/RTP-MTC shall be less negative than -40 pcm/°F.

2 ERX-09-001, Rev. 1

COLR for CPNPP Unit 2 Cycle 12 2.3.2 SR 3.1.3.2 The MTC surveillance limit is:

The 300 ppm/ARO/RTP-MTC shall be less negative than or equal to -31 pcm/°F.

The 60 ppm/ARO/RTP-MTC shall be less negative than or equal to -38 pcm/°F.

where: BOL stands for Beginning of Cycle Life ARO stands for All Rods Out HZP stands for Hot Zero THERMAL POWER EOL stands for End of Cycle Life RTP stands for RATED THERMAL POWER 2.4 ROD GROUP ALIGNMENT LIMITS (LCO 3.1.4) 2.4.1 The SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.3% Ak/k in MODES 1 and 2.

2.5 SHUTDOWN BANK INSERTION LIMITS (LCO 3.1.5) 2.5.1 The shutdown rods shall be fully withdrawn. Fully withdrawn shall be the condition where shutdown rods are at a position within the interval of 218 and 231 steps withdrawn, inclusive.

COLR for CPNPP Unit 2 Cycle 12 2.6 CONTROL BANK INSERTION LIMITS (LCO 3.1.6) 2.6.1 The control banks shall be limited in physical insertion as shown in Figure 2.

2.6.2 The control banks shall always be withdrawn and inserted in the prescribed sequence. For withdrawal, the sequence is control bank A, control bank B, control bank C, and control bank D. The insertion sequence is the reverse of the withdrawal sequence.

2.6.3 A 115 step Tip-to-Tip relationship between each sequential control bank'shall be maintained.

2.7 PHYSICS TESTS EXCEPTIONS - MODE 2 (LCO 3.1.8).

2.7.1 The SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.3% Ak/k in MODE 2 during PHYSICS TESTS.

COLR for CPNPP Unit 2 Cycle 12 RTP 2.8.2 FQ = 2.50 2.8.3 K(Z) is provided in Figure 3.

2.8.4 Elevation and burnup dependent W(Z) values are provided in Figures 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. For W(Z) data at a desired burnup not listed in the figures, but less than the maximum listed burnup, values at 3 or more burnup steps should be used to interpolate the W(Z) data to the desired burnup with a polynomial type fit that uses the nearest three burnup steps. For W(Z) data at a desired burnup outside of the listed burnup steps, a linear extrapolation of the W(Z) data for the nearest two burnup steps can be used.

2.8.5 SR 3.2.1.2 If the two most recent FQ(Z) evaluations show an increase in the expression maximum over Z [ F c(Z) / K(Z) ],

the burnup dependent values in Table 1 shall be used instead of a constant 2% to increase FQW(Z) per Surveillance Requirement 3.2.1.2.a. A constant factor of 2% shall be used for all cycle burnups that are outside the range of Table 1.

2.12.2 SR 3.4.1.1 Pressurizer pressure 2 2220 psig (4 channels) 2 2222 psig (3 channels)

The pressurizer pressure limits correspond to the analytical limit of 2205 psig used in the safety analysis with allowance for measurement uncertainty. These uncertainties are based on the use of control board indications and the number of available channels.

2.12.3 SR 3.4.1.2 RCS average temperature S 592 °F (4 channels) 5 591 'F (3 channels)

The RCS average temperature limits correspond to the analytical limit of 595.2 'F which is bounded by that used in the safety analysis with allowance for measurement uncertainty. These uncertainties are based on the use of control board indications and the number of available channels.
