Subject:

Core Operating Limits Report, Braidwood Unit 1 Cycle 11 The purpose of this letter is to transmit a recently implemented, previously approved version of the Braidwood Station Unit 1 Cycle 11 Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) in accordance with Technical Specification 5.6.5, Core Operating Limits Report (COLR)." Two versions of the COLR specifying different axial flux difference (AFD) limits with the Power Distribution Monitoring System (PDMS) inoperable were approved for Braidwood Unit 1 Cycle 11. The originally implemented COLR for Braidwood Unit 1 Cycle 11 specified AFD limits from -18% to +10% at 100% rated thermal power (RTP) with PDMS inoperable and provided a minimum 2% AFD margin to address potential Axial Offset Deviation issues at the beginning of the cycle. The attached version of the COLR supersedes the originally implemented version of the COLR for Braidwood Unit 1 Cycle 11 and specifies AFD limits from -16% to +10% at 100% RTP with PDMS inoperable. Braidwood Station has elected to implement this previously approved version of the COLR at this time based on core performance. This change is expected to improve margins to peaking factor limits.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Ms. Kelly Root, Regulatory Assurance Manager, at (815) 417-2800.
