Less than or..equal to 0.05 L

per valve test or, a

b.

Greater than 4. 6. 1. 8. 2. a. provided that:

1) the valves are secured closed and maintenance performed at the next plant cold shutdown to reduce the leakage to within 4. 6. l. 8. 2. a; 2) the leakage added to the previously determined total for all valves and penetrations subject to Type B and C tests per LCO 3/4.6. 1.2 shall be less than 0.6 L
