3 Renewed License No. NPF-6 Amendment No. 282 Revised by letter dated July 18, 2007 (4)
EOI, pursuant to the Act and 10 CFR Parts 30, 40 and 70 to receive, possess and use at any time any byproduct, source and special nuclear material as sealed neutron sources for reactor startup, sealed sources for reactor instrumentation and radiation monitoring equipment calibration, and as fission detectors in amounts as required; (5)
EOI, pursuant to the Act and 10 CFR Parts 30, 40 and 70, to receive, possess, and use in amounts as required any byproduct, source or special nuclear material without restriction to chemical or physical form, for sample analysis or instrument calibration or associated with radioactive apparatus or components; and (6)
EOI, pursuant to the Act and 10 CFR Parts 30 and 70, to possess, but not separate, such byproduct and special nuclear materials as may be produced by the operation of the facility.
C.
This renewed license shall be deemed to contain and is subject to conditions specified in the following Commission regulations in 10 CFR Chapter 1; Part 20, Section 30.34 of Part 30, Section 40.41 of Part 40, Sections 50.54 and 50.59 of Part 50, and Section 70.32 of Part 70; and is subject to all applicable provisions of the Act and to the rules, regulations, and orders of the Commission now or hereafter in effect; and is subject to the additional conditions specified or incorporated below:
(1)
Maximum Power Level EOI is authorized to operate the facility at steady state reactor core power levels not in excess of 3026 megawatts thermal. Prior to attaining this power level EOI shall comply with the conditions in Paragraph 2.C.(3).
(2)
Technical Specifications The Technical Specifications contained in Appendix A, as revised through Amendment No. 282 are hereby incorporated in the renewed license. The licensee shall operate the facility in accordance with the Technical Specifications.
Exemptive 2nd paragraph of 2.C.2 deleted per Amendment 20, 3/3/81.
(3)
Additional Conditions The matters specified in the following conditions shall be completed to the satisfaction of the Commission within the stated time periods following issuance of the renewed license or within the operational restrictions indicated.
The removal of these conditions shall be made by an amendment to the renewed license supported by a favorable evaluation by the Commission.
2.C.(3)(a) Deleted per Amendment 24, 6/19/81.
ARKANSAS - UNIT 2 1-4 Amendment No. 157,255,266, DEFINITIONS UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE 1.15 UNIDENTIFIED LEAKAGE shall be all leakage which is not IDENTIFIED LEAKAGE or controlled leakage.
PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE 1.16 PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE shall be leakage (except primary to secondary leakage) through a non-isolable fault in a Reactor Coolant System component body, pipe wall or vessel wall.
AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT - Tq 1.17 AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT shall be the power asymmetry between azimuthally symmetric fuel assemblies.
DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 1.18 DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 shall be that concentration of I-131 (microcuries per gram) that alone would produce the same dose when inhaled as the combined activities of iodine isotopes I-131, I-132, I-133, I-134, and I-135 actually present. The determination of DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 shall be performed using Table III of TID-14844, AEC, 1962, Calculation of Distance Factors for Power and Test Reactor Sites.
DOSE EQUIVALENT XE-133 1.19 DOSE EQUIVALENT XE-133 shall be that concentration of Xe-133 (microcuries per gram) that alone would produce the same acute dose to the whole body as the combined activities of noble gas nuclides Kr-85m, Kr-85, Kr-87, Kr-88, Xe-131m, Xe-133m, Xe-133, Xe-135m, Xe-135, and Xe-138 actually present. If a specific noble gas nuclide is not detected, it should be assumed to be present at the minimum detectable activity. The determination of DOSE EQUIVALENT XE-133 shall be performed using the average disintegration energies derived from the dose conversion factors provided in ICRP Publication 2, "Report of ICRP Committee II on Permissible Dose for Internal Radiation for non-fuel damage events.
STAGGERED TEST BASIS 1.20 A STAGGERED TEST BASIS shall consist of:
- a.
A test schedule for n systems, subsystems, trains or other designated components obtained by dividing the specified test interval into n equal subintervals, and
- b.
The testing of one system, subsystem, train or other designated component at the beginning of each subinterval.
FREQUENCY NOTATION 1.21 The FREQUENCY NOTATION specified for the performance of Surveillance Requirements shall correspond to the intervals defined in Table 1.2.
