CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST CORE ALTERATION CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT (COLR)

DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST shall be the injection of a simulated or actual signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY, including required alarm, interlock, display, and trip functions, and channel failure trips.

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps so that the entire channel is tested.

COR E ALTERATI0N shal 1 bethem 0vement 0fan y f ue1, sources, or reactivity control components within the reactor vessel with the vessel head removed and fuel in the vessel.

The f ol l owi ng exceptions are not considered to be CORE ALTERATIONS:

a.

Movement of wide range neutron monitors, local power range monitors, traversing incore probes, or special movable detectors (including undervessel replacement); and

b.

Control rod movement, provided there are no fuel assemblies in the associated core cell.

Suspension of CORE ALTERATIONS shall not preclude completion of movement of a component to a safe position.

The COLR is the unit specific document that provides cycle specific parameter limits for the current reload cycle.

These cycle specific limits shall be determined for each reload cycle in accordance with Specification 5.6.5.

Plant operation within these limits is addressed in indiVidual Specifications.

DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 shall be that concentration of 1-131 (microcuries/gram) that alone would produce the same dose as the quantity and isotopic mixture of 1-131, 1-132, 1-133, 1-134, and 1-135 actually present.

The dose conversion factors used for this calculation shall be those listed in Table III of TID-14844, AEC, 1962, "Calculation of Distance Factors for Power and Test Reactor Sites,"

or Federal Guidance Report 11, "Limiting Values of Radionuclide Intake and Air Concentration and Dose Conversion Factors for Inhalation, Submersion, and Ingestion," 1989.

When using this definition to suspend the Applicability of LCOs, secondary containment ground-level hatches H15, H16, Hll, H18, H19, and H33 shall be closed during the movement of any irradiated fuel in Secondary Containment.

SDM shall be the amount of reactivity by which the reactor is subcritical or would be subcritical assuming that:

a.

The reactor is xenon free;

b.

The moderator temperature is 68°F; and

c.

All control rods are fully inserted except for the single control rod of highest reactivity worth, which is assumed to be fully withdrawn.

With control rods not capable of being fully inserted, the reactivity worth of these control rods must be accounted for in the determination of SDM.

A STAGGERED TEST BASIS shall consist of the testing of one of the systems, subsystems, channels, or other designated components during the interval specified by the Surveillance Frequency, so that all systems, subsystems, channels, or other designated components are tested during n Surveillance Frequency intervals, where n is the total number of systems, subsystems, channels, or other designated components in the associated function.

THERMAL POWER shall be the total reactor core heat transfer rate to the reactor coolant.
