INTRODUCTION This report provides the cycle-specific limits for operation of Calvert Cliffs Unit 2, Cycle 14. It contains the limits for:
Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC)
Control Element Assembly (CEA) Alignment Regulating Control Element Assembly (CEA) Insertion Limits Linear Heat Rate (LHR)
Total Planar Radial Peaking Factor (F,,T)
Total Integrated Radial Peaking Factor (FrT)
Axial Shape Index (ASI)
Reactor Protective System (RPS) Instrumentation - Operating Boron Concentration In addition, this report contains a number of figures which give limits on the parameters listed above. If any of the limits contained in this report are exceeded, corrective action will be taken as defined in the Technical Specifications.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specifications.
The cycle specific limits have been developed using the NRC-approved methodologies given in the "List of Approved Methodologies" section of this report and in the Technical Specifications.
COLR Revision 0 Initial Release of Unit 2 Cycle 14 COLR (Safety Evaluations SE00451 and SE00452).
COLR Revision 1 3.9.1 Boron Concentration was revised to include a Refueling Boron Concentration Limit crediting no CEAs for a Post-Refueling Upper Guide Structure (UGS) lift or Reactor Vessel Head Lift. Safety Evaluation SE00452 provided justification for this revision.
COLR REVISION 2 Figure 3.2.3 is revised to implement a more restrictive FrT due to ROPM issues discovered mid-cycle (SE00472, Rev. 0).
COLR REVISION 3 Replaced the 0 Credited CEA option in Section 3.9.1 with an option that credits > 17,775 MWd/MT Burnup without crediting CEAs Calvert Cliffs 2, Cycle 14 COLR Page 4 of 24 Rev. 3 Calvert Cliffs 2, Cycle 14 COLR Page 4 of 24 Rev. 3
DEFINITIONS Axial Shape Index (ASI)
ASI shall be the power generated in the lower half of the core less the power generated in the upper half of the core, divided by the sum of the power generated in the lower and upper halves of the core.
ASI = lower - upper = YE lower + upper The Axial Shape Index (Y1) used for the trip and pretrip signals in the Reactor Protection System (RPS) is the above value (YE) modified by an appropriate multiplier (A) and a constant (B) to determine the true core axial power distribution for that channel.
Yr=AYE + B Total Integrated Radial Peaking Factor - FT The Total Integrated Radial Peaking Factor is the ratio of the peak pin power to the average pin power in an unrodded core.
Total Planar Radial Peaking Factor - FyT The Total Planar Radial Peaking Factor is the maximum ratio of the peak to average power density of the individual fuel rods in any of the unrodded horizontal planes.

CYCLE SPECIFIC LIMITS FOR UNIT 2, CYCLE 14 3.1.1 Shutdown Margin (SDM) (SR 3.1.1.1)
Tavg > 200 'F - Modes 3 and 4:
The shutdown margin shall be equal to or greater than the limit line of COLR Figure 3.1.1.
Tav, <:200 0F-Mode 5:
The shutdown margin shall be > 3.0% Ap.
3.1.3 Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC) (SR 3.1.3.2)
The Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC) shall be less negative than -3.0 x 10-4 ApPF at rated thermal power.
3.1.4 Control Element Assembly (CEA) Alignment (Action 3.1.4.B.1)
The allowable time to realign a CEA may be provided by the full core power distribution monitoring system (Better Axial Shape Selection System - BASSS) or COLR Figure 3.1.4, "Allowable Time to Realign CEA Versus Initial Total Intedrated Radial Peaking Factor (F2T)." If COLR Figure 3.1.4 is used, the pre-misaligned F, value used to determine the allowable time to realign the CEA shall be the latest measurement taken within 5 days prior to the CEA misalignment. If no measurements have been taken within 5 days prior to the misalignment and the full core power distribution monitoring system is unavailable then the time to realign is zero (0) minutes.
3.1.6 Regulating Control Element Assembly (CEA) Insertion Limits (SR 3.1.6.1 and SR 3.1.6.2)
The regulating CEA groups insertion limits are shown on COLR Figure 3.1.6.
3.2.1 Linear Heat Rate (LHR) (SR 3.2.1.2 and SR 3.2.1.4)
The linear heat rate shall not exceed the limits shown on COLR Figure 3.2.1-1.
The axial shape index power dependent control limits are given in COLR Figure 3.2.1-2.
When using the excore detector monitoring system (SR 3.2.1.2):
The alarm setpoints are equal to the ASI limits, therefore when the alarms are adjusted, they provide indication to the operator that ASI is not within the limits.
The axial shape index alarm setpoints are shown as a function of fraction of thermal power on COLR Figure 3.2.1-2. A scaling factor (N-Factor) vs. Fx7 is shown in COLR Figure 3.2.1-3. The fraction of thermal power shown in COLR Figure 3.2.1-2 must be scaled by the N-Factor to determine the axial shape index alarm setpoints as a function of fraction of rated thermal power.

CYCLE SPECIFIC LIMITS FOR UNIT 2, CYCLE 14 When usina the incore detector monitoring system (SR 3.2.1.4):
The alarm setpoints are adjusted to protect the Linear Heat Rate limits shown on COLR Figure 3.2.1-1 and uncertainty factors are appropriately included in the setting of these alarms.

- 1.
A measurement-calculational uncertainty factor of 1.062,
- 2.
An engineering uncertainty factor of 1.03,
- 3.
A linear heat rate uncertainty factor of 1.002 due to axial fuel densification and thermal expansion, and 4.a For measured thermal power less than or equal to 50 percent but greater than 20 percent of rated full core power a thermal power measurement uncertainty factor of 1.035.

3.2.5 Axial Shape Index (ASI) (SR 3.2.5.1)
The axial shape index and thermal power shall be maintained within the limits established by the Better Axial Shape Selection System (BASSS) for CEA insertions of the lead bank of
< 55% when BASSS is operable, or within the limits of COLR Figure 3.2.5 for CEA insertions specified by COLR Figure 3.1.6.
