3 4 LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPEPATION AND SURVEILLANCE PE UIREHENTS BASES S eciffcation 3.0.1 throu h 3.0,4 establish the general requirements applicable to m t ng on t ons or peration. These requirements are based on the requirements for Limiting Conditions for Operation stated in the Code of Federa1 Regulations, 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2):
"Limiting conditions for operation are the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment reauired for safe operation of the faci1fty. When a limiting condition for operation of a nuclear reactor is not met, the licensee shall shut down the reactor or follow any remedial action permitted by the technical specification until the condition can be met."
S ecfffcation 3.0.1 establishes the Applicability statement within each n v ua spec cation as the requirement for when (i.e., in which OPERATIONAL MODES or other specified conditions) conformance to the Limiting Conditions for Operation is required for safe operation of the facility. The ACTION requirements establish those remedial measures that must be taken within specified time limits when the requirements of a Limiting Condition for Operation are not met.
There are two basic types of ACTION requirements. The first specifies the remedial measures that permit continued operation of the facility which is not further restricted by the time limits of the ACTION requirements. In this case, conformance to the ACTION requirements provides an acceptable level of safety for unlimited continued operation as long as the ACTION reouirements continue to be met. The second type of ACTION requirement specifies a time limit in which conformance to the conditions of the Limiting Condition for Operation must be met. This time limit fs the allowable outage time to restore an inoperable system or component to OPERABLE status or for restoring parameters within specified limits. If these actions are not completed within the a11owable outage time limits, a shutdown is required to place the facility in a MODE or condition in which the specification no longer applies. It is not intended that the shutdown ACTION requirements be used as an operational convenience which permits (routine) voluntary removal of a system(s) or component(s) from service in lieu of other alternatives that would not result in redundant systems or components being inoperable.
The specified time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable from the point in time it is identified that a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met. The time limits of the ACTION requirements are also applicable when a system or component is removed from service for surveillance testing or investigation of operationa1 problems. Individual specifications may include a specified time limit for the completion of a Surveillance Requirement when equipment is removed from service. In this case, the allowable outage time D. C.

Mhen a shutdown is required to ff comply with ACTION reouirements, the plant may have entered a MODE'n which a new specification becomes applicable. In this case, the time limits of the ACTION requirements would apply from the point in time that the new speci~ication becomes applicable for Operation are not met.
if the requirements of the Limiting Condition S ecification 3.0.2 establishes that noncompliance with a specification exists w en t e reau rements of the Limiting Condition. for Operation are not met and the associated ACTION requirements have not been implemented within the specified time interval. The purpose of this specification is to clarify that (I) implementation of the ACTION requirements within the specified time interval constitutes compliance with a specification and (2) completion of the remedial measures of the ACTION requirements is not required when compliance with a Limiting Condition of Operation is restored within the time interval specified in the associated ACTION requirements.
S ecification 3.0.3 establishes the shutdown ACTION requirements that must be mp emente w en a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met and the cond)tion is not specifically addressed by the associated ACTION requirements.
The purpose of this specification is to delineate the time limits for placing the unit in a safe shutdown NODE when plant operation cannot be maintained within the limits for safe operation defined by the Limiting Conditions for Oper ation and i.ts ACTION requirements. It is not contended to be used as an operational convenience which permits (routine) voluntary removal of redundant systems or components from service in lieu of other alternatives that would not result in redundant systems or components being inoperable. One hour is allowed to prepare for an orderly shutdown before initiating a change fn plant operation. This time permits the operator to coordinate the reduction in electrical generation with the load dispatcher to ensure the stability and availability of the electrical grid. The time limits specified to reach lower NODES of operation permit the shutdown to proceed fn a controlled and orderly manner that is well within the specified maximum cooldown rate and within the cooldown capabilities of the facility assuming only the minimum required equipment is OPERABLE. This reduces thermal stresses on components of the primary coolant system and the potential for a plant upset that could challenge safety systems under conditions for which this specification applies.
If remedial measures permitting limited continued operation of the facility under the provisions of the ACTION requirements are completed, the shutdown may be terminated. The time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable from the point in time there was a failure to meet a Limiting Condition for Operation. Therefore, the shutdown may be terminated if the ACTION requirements have been met or the time limits of the ACTION requirements have not expired, thus providing an allowance for the completion of the required actions.

3 4.0 APPLICABILITY BASES (Continued)
When a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements, the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 do not apply because they would delay placing the facility in a lower MOOE of operation.
3.0.5 This specification delineates what additional conditions must be satisfied to permit operation to continue, consistent with source the ACTION state-ments for po~er sources, when a normal or emergency power is not OPERABLE. It specifically prohibits operationis when one division is inoperable because its normal or emergency power source inoperable and a system, subsystem, train, component or device in another division is inoperable f'r another reason.
The provisions of this specification permit the ACTION statement associated with individual systems, subsystems, trains, components, or devices to be consistent with the ACTION statements of the associated electrical power source. It allows oper ation. to be governed by thefortime limits of the ACTION Operation for the normal statement associated with the Limiting Condition or emergency power source, not the individual ACTION statements for each system, subsystem, train, component or device that is determined to be inoper able solely because of the inoperability of its normal or emergency power source.
For example, Specification 3.8. 1. 1 requires in part that two emergency diesel generators be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides for a 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> out-of-service time when one emergency diesel generator is not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification 3.0 ', all systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices supplied by the inoperable emergency power source would also be inoperable. This would dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicable Limiting Conditions for Oper ation. However, the provisions of Specification 3. 0. 5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable emergency diesel generator instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied. In this case, this would mean that the corresponding normal power source must be OPERABLE, and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components, and devices must be OPERABLE, or otherwise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i.e., be capable of performing their design function and have at least one normal or one emergency po~er source OPERABLE). If they are not satisfied, action is required in accordance with this specification.
L As a further example, Specification 3.8.1.1 requires'in part that two physi" cal'ly independent circuits between the offsite transmission network and the onsite Class IE distribution system be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides a 24-hour out-of-service time when both required nffsite circuits are not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consider ation of Specification 3.0.5, a11 systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices D. c. cooK - UNIT I B 3/4 0-4 Amendment No.

3/4. 0 APPLICABILITY BASES (Continued) supplied by the inoperable normal power sources, both of the offsite circuits would also be inoperable. This would dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements 'for each of the apol icabie LCOs. However, the provisions of Specification 3.0.5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable normal power sources instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied. In this case, thfs would mean that for one division the emergency power source must be OPERABLE (as must be the components supplied by the emergency power sour=e) and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices iz the other division must be OPERABLE, or likewise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i. e., be capable of performing their design functions and have an emergency power source OPERABLE). In other words, both emergency power sources must be OPERABLE and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices in both divisions must also be OPERABLE. If these conditions are 'not satisfied, action is required in accordance with this specification.
In MODES 5 or 6, Specification 3. 0. 5 is not applicable, and thus the individual ACTION statements for each applicable Limiting Condition for Operation in these MODES must be adhered to.
S ecifications 4.0. 1 through 4.0.5 establish the general requirements app ica e to urve ance equ rements, These requirements are based on the Surveillance Requirements stated in the Code of Federal Reoulations, IO CFR 50.36(c)(3):
"Surveillance requirements are requirements relating to test, calibra-tion, or inspection to assuage that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operation will be within the safety limits, and that the limiting conditions of operation will be met."
S ecificatfon 4.0. 1 establishes the requfrement that survefllances must be per orme ur ng t e OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions for which the requirements of the Limiting Conditions for Operation apply unless otherwise stated fn an individual Survefllance Requirement. The purpose of this speci-fication fs to ensure that surveillances are performed to verify the opera-tional status of systems and components and that parameters are within speci-fied limits to ensure safe operation of the facility when the plant is in a MODE or other specffied condition for which the associated Limiting Conditions for Operation are applicable. Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed when the facility is fn an OPERATIONAL MODE for which the reaufrements of the associated Limiting Condition for Operation do not apply unless otherwise specffied. The Surveillance Requirements associated with a Special Test Exception are only applicable when the Special Test Exception fs used as an allowable exception to the requirements of a speciffcation.

Specification 3.0.3, a 24-hour allowance is provided to permit a delay in implementing the ACTION requirements. This provides an adequate time limit to complete Surveillance Requirements that have not been performed. The purpose of this allowance is to permit the completion of a surveillance before a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements or before other remedial measures would be required that may preclude completion of a surveillance. The basis for this allowance includes consideration for plant conditions, adequate planning, availability of personnel, the time required to perform the surveillance, and the safety significance of the delay in completing the required surveillance. This provision also provides a time limit for the completion of Surveillance Requirements that become applicable as a consequence of MODE changes imposed by ACTION requirements. If a surveillance is not completed within the 24-hour allowance, the time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable at that time. When a surveillance is performed within the 24-hour allowance and the Surveillance Requirements are not met, the time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable at the time that the surveillance is terminated. For surveillances that may be delayed per exemption to Specification 4.0.4, it is expected that the surveillances will be performed expeditiously after entering the applicable mode. However, it is recognized that plant conditions may, at times, cause greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to be required to complete the surveillance.
Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment because the ACTION requirements define the remedial measures that apply.
However, the Surveillance Requirements have to be met to demonstrate that inoperable equipment has been restored to OPERABLE status.
S ecification 4.0.4 establishes the requirement that all applicable surveillances must be met before entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other condition of operation specified in the Applicability statement. The purpose of this specification is to ensure that system and component OPERABILITY requirements or parameter limits are met before entry into a MODE or condition for which these systems and components ensure safe operation of the facility.
This provision applies to changes in OPERATIONAL MODES or other specified conditions associated with plant shutdown as well as startup.
Under the provisions of this specification, the applicable Surveillance Requirements must be performed within the specifi.ed surveillance interval to ensure that the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met during initial plant startup or following a plant outage.
When a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements, the provisions of Specification 4.0.4 do not apply because this would delay placing the facility in a lower MODE of operation.

These requirements apply except when relief has been provided in writing by the Comaission.
This specification includes a clarification of the frequencies for performing the inservice inspection and testing activities required by Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. This clarification fs provided to ensure consistency in surveillance intervals throughout the Technical Specifications and to remove any ambiguities relative to the frequencies for performing the required inservice inspection and testing activities.
Under the terms of this specification, the more restrictive requirements of t
the Technical Specifications take precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. The requirements of Specification 4.0.4 to perform surveillance activities before entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified condition takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows pumps and valves to be tested up to one week after return to normal operation. The Technical Specification definition of OPERABLE does not allow a grace period before a component, that is not capable of performing its specified function, is declared inoperable and takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows a valve to be incapable of performing its specified function for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> before being declared inoperable.

3 4 LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION AND SURVEILLANCE PE UIREMEHTS BASES S ecification 3.0. 1 throu h 3.0.4 establish the general requirements applicable to m>t nq on t ons or peration. These requirements are based on the requirements for Limiting Conditions for Operation stated in the Code of Federal Regulations, 10 CFR 50.36{c){2):
"Limiting conditions for operation are the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. i/hen a limiting condition for operation of a nuclear reactor is not met, the licensee shall shut down the reactor or follow any remedial action permitted by the technical specification until the condition can be met."
S ecffication 3.0. 1 establishes the Applicability statement within each n v ua spec cation as the requirement for when (i.e., in which OPERATIONAL MODES or other specified conditions) conformance to the Limiting Conditions for Operation is required for safe operation of the facility. The ACTION requirements establish those remedial measures that must be taken within specified time limits when the requirements of a Limiting Condition for Operation are not met.
There are two basic types of ACTION requirements. The first specifies the remedial measures that permit continued operation of the facility which is not further restricted by the time limits of the ACTION requirements. In this case, conformance to the ACTION requirements provides an acceptable level of safety for unlimited continued operation as long as the ACTION requirements continue to be met. The second type of ACTION requirement specifies a time limit in which conformance to the conditions of the Limiting Condition for Operation must be met. This time limit is the allowable outage time to restore an inoperable system or component to OPERABLE status or for restoring parameters within specified limits. If these actions are not completed within the allowable outage time limits, a shutdown is required to place the facility in a MODE or condition in which the specification no longer applies. It is not intended that the shutdown ACTION requirements be used as an operational convenience which permits (routine) voluntary removal of a system(s) or component(s) from service in lieu of other alternatives that would not result in redundant systems or components being inoperable.
The specified time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable from the point in time it is identified that a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met. The time limits of the ACTION requirements are also applicable when a system or component is removed from service for surveillance testing or investigation of operational problems. Individual specifications may include a specified time limit for the completion of a Surveillance Requirement when
~
equipment is removed from service. In this case, the allowable outage time D. C. COOK - UNIT 2 B 3/4 0-1 Amendment No.

'Hhen a shutdown fs required to comply with ACTION reouirements, the plant may have enter ed a MODE in which a new specification becomes applicable. In this case, the tfme limits of the ACTION requirements would apply from the point in time that the new speci<icatfon becomes applicable 1f'he requirements of the Lfmfting Condition for Operation are not met.
S ecfficatfon 3.0.2 establishes that noncompliance with a specification exists w en t e reau rements of the Limiting Condition for Operatfon are not met and the associated ACTION requirements have not been implemented within the specified time fnter val. The purpose of thfs speciffcat1on is to clarify that (I) fmplementation of the ACTION requirements. within the specified time interval constitutes compliance with a specification and (2) completion of the remedial measures of the ACTION requirements is not required when compliance with a L1m1ting Condition of Operation 1s restored within the time interval specfffed in the assocfated ACTION requirements.
S ecfffcatfon 3.0.3 establishes the shutdown ACTION requfrements that must be mp emente w en a Lfmftfng Condition for Operat1on is not met and the condition fs not specffically add~essed by the associated ACTION requirements.
The purpose of th1s speciffcat1on fs to delineate the time lfm1ts for placing the unit in a safe shutdown MODE when plant operation cannot be mafntafned w1thfn the limits for safe operat1on def1ned by the Lfmit1ng Condftfons for Operation and fts ACTION requirements. It fs not contended to be used as an operational convenience which permits (routine) voluntary removal of redundant systems or components from servfce in lieu of other alternatives that would not result 1n redundant systems or components being inoperable. One hour fs allowed to prepare for an orderly shutdown before 1n1tfating a change fn plant operation. This time permits the operator to coordinate the reduct1on fn electrical generation with the load dispatcher to ensure the stability and avaflab11fty of the electrical grid. The time limits specified to reach lower MODES of operation permit the shutdown to proceed fn a controlled and orderly manner that fs well wfth1n the specfffed maximum cooldown rate and within the cooldown capab11itfes of the facility assuming only the minimum required equipment is OPERABLE. This reduces thermal stresses on components of the primary coolant system and the potential for a plant upset that could challenge safety systems under condftfons for which this specif1cation applies.
If remedial measures permitting lfmfted continued operatfon of the facility under the provisions of the ACTION requirements are completed, the shutdown may be terminated. The tfme limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable from the point in time there was a failure to meet a Limiting Conditfon .for Operation. Therefore, the shutdown may be terminated if the ACTION requirements have been met or, the time ',imfts of. the ACTION requirements have not expired, thus providing an allowance for the completfon of the required actions.

When a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements, the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 do not apply because they would delay placing the facility in a lower MODE of operation.
3.0.5 This specification delineates what additional conditions must be satisfied to permit operation to continue, consistent with the ACTION state-ments for power sources, when a normal or emergency power source is not OPERABLE. It specifically prohibits operation when one division is inoperable because its normal or emergency power source is inoperable and a system, subsystem, t~ain, component or device in another division is inoperable for another reason.
The provisions of this specification permit the ACTION statements associated with individual systems, subsystems, trains, components, or devices to be consistent with the ACTION statements of the associated electrical power source. It allows operation. to be governed by the time limits of the ACTION statement associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation for the normal or emergency power source, not the individual ACTION statements for each system, subsystem, train, component or device that is determined to be inoper able solely because of the inoperability of its normal or emergency power source.
For example, Specification 3.S. l. 1 requires in part that two emergency diesel generators be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides for a 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> out-of-service time when one emergency diesel generator is not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification 3.0.5, all systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices supplied by the inoperable emergency power source would also be inoperable. This should dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicable Limiting Conditions for Operation. However, the provisions of Specificat on 3.0.5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable emergency diesel generator instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied. In this case, this would mean that the corresponding normal power source must be OPERABLE, and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components, and devices must be OPERABLE, or otherwise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i.e., be capable of performing their design function and have at least one normal or one emergency power source OPERABLE). If they are not satisfied, action is requi'red in accordance with this specification.
As a further example, Specification 3.8. 1. 1 requires"in part that two physi-.
cal*ly independent circuits between the offsite transmission network and the onsite Class IE distribution system- be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides a 24-hour out-of-service time when both required nffsite circuits are not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration. of Specification 3.0.5, all systems, subsystems, trains, components'nd devices

This would dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicable LCOs. However, the provisions of Speci fication 3. 0. 5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the fnoper able normal power sources fnstead, provided the other specified conditions are satisffed. In this case, this would mean that for one division the emergency power source must be OP'ERABLE (as must be the components supp1ied by the emergency power sour"e) and al1 redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices in the other division must be OPERABt E, or likewise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i.e., be capable of performing their design functions and have an emerge.~cy power source OPERABLE). In other words, both emergency power sources must be OPERABLE and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices fn both divisions must also be OPERABLE. If these conditions are not satisfied, action is required in accordance with this specification.
In MODES 5 or 6, Specification 3.0.5 is not applicable, and thus the individual ACTION statements for each applicable Limiting Condition for Operation in these MODES must be adhered to.
S ecffications 4.0. 1 throuqh 4.0.5 establish the general requirements app ca e to urve ance eou rements, These requirements are based on the Survefllance Requirements stated in the Code of Federal Reoulations, 10 CFR 50.36(c)(3):
"Surveillance requirements are requirements relating to test, calibra-tion, or inspection to assuage that the necessary quality of systems and components fs mafntafned, that facility operatfon will be within the safety limits, and that the limiting conditions of operation will be met."
S ecffication 4.0. 1 establishes the requirement that survefllances must be per orme ur ng t e OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions for which the requfrements of the Limiting Conditions for Operation apply unless otherwise stated fn an individual Surveillance Requirement. The purpose of thfs speci-fication fs to ensure that survefllances are performed to verify the opera-tional status of systems and components and that parameters are within speci-ffed limits to ensure safe operation of the facility when the plant is fn a NODE or other specified condition for which the assocfated Limiting Conditions for Operation are applicable. Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed when the facflfty is fn an OPERATIONAL MODE for which the requfrements of the associated Lfmitfng Condition for Operation do not apply unless otherwise specfffed.

S ecffication 4.0.2 establishes the conditions under which the specified time
~nterva or urve llance Requirements may be extended. Item a. permits an allowable extension of the normal surveillance fnterval to facilitate survefllance scheduling and consideration of plant operating conditions that may not be suitable for conducting the surveillance; e.g.', transient conditions or other ongoing surveillance or maintenance activities. Item b. limits the use of the provisions of ftem a. to ensure that ft is not used repeatedly to extend the surveillance interval beyond that specified. The limits of Specification 4.0.2 are based on engineering iudgment and the recognitfon that the most probable result of any particular surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the Surveillance Requirements. These provisions are sufficient to ensure that the reliability ensured through, surveillance activities is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the specified surveillance interval.
S ecification 4.0.3 establishes the failure to perform a Surveillance equsrement wit sn the allowed surveillance interval, defined by the provisions of Specification 4.0.2, as a condition that constitutes a failure to meet the

OPERABILITY requirements for a Limiting Condition for Operation. Under the provisions of this

specification, systems and components are assumed to be OPERABLE when Surveillance Requirements have been satisfactorfly performed within the specified time interval. However, nothing in this provision is to be construed as implying that systems or components are OPERABLE when they are found or known to be inoperable although still meeting the Surveillance Requirements. This specification also clarifies that the ACTION requirements are applicable when Surveillance Requirements have not been completed within the allowed surveillance fnterval and that the time limits of the ACTION requirements apply from the point fn time ft fs fdentified that a surveillance has not been performed and not at the time that the allowed surveillance interval was exceeded. Completion of the Surveillance Requirement withfn the allowable outage time limits of the ACTION requirements restores compliance with the requirements of Specification 4.0.3. However, this does not negate the fact that the failure to have performed the surveillance within the allowed surveillance interval, defined by the provisions of Specfffcatfon 4.0.2, was a violation of the OPERABILITY requirements of a Limiting Condition for Operation that is subject to enforcement action. Further, the failure to perform a surveillance wfthfn the provisions of Specification 4.0.2 fs a violation of a Technfcal Specification requirement and is, therefore, a reportable event under the requfremen.s of 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(f)(B) because It fs a condition prohibited by the plant's Technf'cal Specifications.

Specification 3.0.3, a 24-hour allowance is provided to permit a delay in implementing the ACTION requirements. This provides an adequate time limit to complete Surveillance Requirements that have not been performed. The purpose of thi,s allowance is to permit the completion of a surveillance before a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements or before other remedial measures would be required that may preclude completion of a surveillance. The basis for this allowance includes consideration for plant conditions, adequate planning, availability of personnel, the time required to perform the surveillance, and the safety significance of the delay in completing the required surveillance. This provision also provides a time limit for the completion of Surveillance Requirements that become applicable as a consequence of MODE changes imposed by ACTION requirements. If a surveillance is not completed within the 24-hour allowance, the time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable at that time. When a surveillance is performed within the 24-hour allowance and the Surveillance Requirements are not met, the time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable at the time that the surveillance is terminated. For surveillances that may be delayed per exemption to Specification 4.0.4, it is expected that the surveillances will be performed expeditiously after entering the applicable mode. However, it is recognized that plant conditions may, at times, cause greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to be required to complete the surveillance.
Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment because the ACTION requirements define the remedial measures that apply.
However, the Surveillance Requirements have to be met to demonstrate that inoperable equipment has been restored to OPERABLE status.
S ecification 4.0.4 establishes the requirement that all applicable surveillances must be met before entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other condition of operation specified in the Applicability statement. The purpose of this specification is to ensure that system and component OPERABILITY requirements or parameter limits are met before entry into a MODE or condition for which these systems and components ensure safe operation of the facility.
This provision applies to changes in OPERATIONAL MODES or other specified conditions associated with plant shutdown as well as startup.
Under the provisions of this specification, the applicable Surveillance Requirements must be performed within the specified surveillance interval to ensure that the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met during initial plant startup or following a plant outage.
When a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements, the provisions of Specification 4.0.4 do not apply because this would delay placing the facility in a lower MODE of operation.

D. C. COOK - UNIT 2 3/4 12-10 Amendment No.
ATTACHMENT 1 TO AEP:NRC:0659M REASONS AND 10 CFR 50.92 SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS EVALUATION FOR CHANGES TO THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR PLANT UNITS 1 AND 2 to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 1 The following is a description of the proposed changes to the Section 6 T/Ss.
T/S 6.1.2 is being added, and places an additional restriction on the Cook Nuclear Plant by requiring the Shift Supervisor or a designated individual during his absence to be responsible for the control room command function. A management directive to this effect signed by the Vice President - Nuclear Operations will be reissued to all station personnel on an annual basis. Designating responsibility for the control room complex places additional restrictions in the T/S and is an improvement to our current T/S. This change is also consistent with Revision 4 and the draft of Revision 5 of the Westinghouse Standard Technical Specifications and T/Ss recently approved for Seabrook - Unit 1, Braidwood - Units 1 and 2, Byron-Units 1 and 2, and Shearon Harris - Unit l.
- 2) The proposed changes to T/S 6.2.2.b and Table 6 '-1 are being made in order to comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(m). The proposed T/Ss would require at least one licensed Senior Operator to be in the control room when the facility is in Modes 1, 2, 3 and 4, and would meet the minimum licensed operator staffing requirement that three Senior Operators be on site ~ The Shift Supervisor (SS) has been added to the list in Table 6.2-1 to be consistent with this requirement. These changes allow T/S 6.2.2.c to be deleted, and the paragraphs following T/S 6.2.2.b have been renumbered.
Other changes made to Table 6.2-1 are editorial. The symbols "¹" and "~" used to signify footnotes have been reversed in order to clarify which footnotes apply to the SS. Also the word "Reactor" has been removed from the title "Senior Reactor Operator License." (This change is also made in T/S 6.2.2.d and 6.2.2.g.) This was done to obtain uniformity throughout the'ection 6 T/Ss ~
The proposed changes described above are consistent with Revision 4 of the Westinghouse Standard Technical Specifications and T/Ss recently approved for Vogtle-Unit 1, Shearon Harris - Unit 1, and Seabrook - Unit 1.
- 3) A footnote has been added to T/S 6.2.2.d and 6.2,2.f (T/S 6.2 '.c and 6 '.2.e in the proposed, revised T/S pages). This change would allow up to two hours for the unexpected absence of an individual qualified in radiation protection procedures and the unexpected absence of the minimum composition of fire brigade members. We believe that this change is reasonable in that provisions for unexpected absences of short duration are necessary. The to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 2 change is also consistent with Revision 4 and the draft of Revision 5 of the Westinghouse Standard Technical Specifications.
- 4) The proposed changes to T/Ss 6.3.1, 6.4.1, 6.5.2.3, 6.5.2.9, 6.5.2.10.a, 6.5.2.10.b, and 6.5.2.10.c involve necessary title changes. Specifically, we propose to change the "Plant Health Physics Supervisor" to "Plant Radiation Protection Manager," the "Training Coordinator" to "Training Manager,"
and the "Vice Chairman - Engineering and Construction" to "Senior Executive Vice President - Engineering and Construction." This proposed change would make our T/Ss consistent with the current titles used for these positions.
The proposed changes to T/Ss 6.5.1.2, 6.5.1.3 and 6.5.1.5 affect the qualifications, structure, and quorum of the PNSRC.
The proposed change to T/S 6.5.1.2 is to add the minimum qualifications that the PNSRC members and alternate members must meet. Members and alternates will meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of ANSI N18.1-1971, Section 4.4.
Also, plant operations personnel will meet the qualifications of Section 4.2.2 and maintenance personnel will meet the qualifications of Section 4.2.3. This change is an improvement to our current T/S, and was recently approved for Beaver Valley Unit 2.
The PNSRC would consist of the Assistant Plant Managers, Department Superintendents, and personnel reporting directly to the Plant Manager, the Assistant Plant Managers, or Department Superintendents. All members would meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of ANSI N18.1-1971, Section 4.4.
In addition to the Chairman, the PNSRC membership will consist of a minimum of one individual from each of the functional areas designated in T/S 6.5.1.2. The Quality Control Department for the Cook Nuclear Plant is known as the Safety & Assessment Department. This would eliminate the need to make a T/S change when the company is reorganized or a member has a title change, but will maintain the consistency and expertise of the committee. The Plant Manager would appoint the chairman, members, and alternate members, but would not be a member of the PNSRC himself (the current T/S designates the Plant Manager as the chairman of the PNSRC). This change would establish the PNSRC as a more independent advisory organization to the Plant Manager, instead of requiring the Plant Manager's direct involvement in the work activities of the PNSRC. This change requires that T/S 6.'5.1.3 be revised since the PNSRC Chairman would no longer appoint the alternate members. We believe this to be an improvement to our current T/S. This change is similar to T/Ss approved for Vogtle Unit 1.
to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 3 Proposed changes to T/S 6 '.1 5 clarify the requirements for
~
a quorum of the PNSRC. The Chairman or his designated alternate and at least half of the members including alternates will be required for a quorum of the PNSRC. The restriction that only two alternates are allowed to make up the quorum has been removed from this specification because this restriction is in Specification 6.5.1.3. In Specification 6.5.1.3, the number of alternates that can participate as voting members in the PNSRC is limited to two at any one time. Ve feel this proposed change is an improvement to our current T/Ss as it clarifies the present requirement. This change has also been recently approved in the T/Ss for Beaver Valley Unit 2.
- 6) The proposed changes to T/Ss 6.5.1 6.a, b, c clarify the
~
subject areas that the PNSRC will review. Specifically, the PNSRC will only perform reviews of subjects that could affect plant nuclear safety or involve an unreviewed safety question. These changes will allow the PNSRC to focus on issues related to plant safety and relieve the PNSRC from the unnecessary burden of reviewing routine or administrative changes. This proposed'change has caused T/S 6 '.1.6.c to be relettered to 6.5.1.6.d.
The criteria of 10 CFR 50.59 state that proposed design changes in the plant and changes in the procedures as described in the FSAR, and tests or experiments not described in the FSAR must be reviewed for an unreviewed safety question if they do not require a change to the T/Ss.
Currently, T/S 6.5.1.7b requires a review per the unreviewed safety question criteria of not only these three areas (design changes, procedure changes and tests or experiments) but also of proposed changes to the T/Ss, the Operating License, and vjolations to the T/Ss and the Operating License. However, only a significant hazards consideration review is performed, as required by 10 CFR 50.92, for proposed T/S and Operating License changes. An assessment of the safety consequences is performed as required by 10 CFR 50 '3, for T/S violations. T/S 6.5.1 7b and
~
T/S 5.1.6d has been clarified accordingly.
Revisions have also been made to T/S 6.5.1 6k to be more
~
consistent with the draft of Revision 5 of the Vestinghouse Standard Technical Specifications and T/Ss recently approved for Seabrook - Unit 1, Shearon Harris - Unit 1, Vogtle - Unit 1 and Callaway - Unit 1.
- 7) The proposed change to T/S 6.5.1.7.c will require the Vice President - Nuclear Operations to be notified, in addition to the NSDRC, of any disagreements between the PNSRC and the Plant Manager. At the present time, the Vice President-Nuclear Operations is the Chairman of the NSDRC and to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 4 therefore would be notified when the NSDRC was notified; However, this change will ensure the Vice President-Nuclear Operations would be notified in the future if, for whatever reason, the Vice President - Nuclear Operations is not a member of the NSDRC. This change will also make our T/Ss consistent with Revision 4 and the draft of Revision 5 of the Westinghouse Standard Technical Specifications.
- 8) Changes to T/S 6.5.2.2 are being proposed as a result of the recent reorganization and changes in personnel. The member-ship list has been changed to update the members'itles.
Additional members may be added to the NSDRC by the Senior Executive Vice President - Engineering and Construction.
This will allow us the flexibility of adding qualified personnel to the committee without requiring a T/S submittal.
- 9) The proposed change to T/S 6.5.2.6 is made to clarify that only the Plant Manager has line responsibility for operation of the facility. This is a clarification of an existing T/S and therefore is considered an improvement.
- 10) The proposed change to T/S 6.5.2.7.a would eliminate the review by the NSDRC of the safety evaluations of lower-tier plant procedures. The NSDRC's review is redundant to PNSRC review and, historically, a safety concern has never been identified. Therefore, we believe the NSDRC workload in this area is not warranted. The NSDRC will, however, continue to review safety evaluations of the top-tier Plant Manager Instructions, which establish the policies that govern all other plant procedures and changes thereto.
The proposed change to T/Ss 6.5.2.8 h, i, and j (T/Ss 6.5.2.8 g and h on the proposed revised pages) clarifies the NSDRC audit requirements on fire protection. The require-ments that were in T/Ss 6.5.2.8 h, i and j have been rephrased and combined into T/Ss 6.5.2 ' g and h. This change is administrative (for clarification). The change is also consistent with the draft of Revision 5 of the Westing-house Standard Technical Specifications and T/Ss recently approved for the following plants: South Texas - Unit 1, Callaway - Unit 1, Seabrook - Unit 1, Byron - Units 1 and 2, and Vogtle - Unit 1. The paragraphs following T/Ss 6.5.2.8 h, i and j (T/Ss 6.5.2.8 g and h) have only been relettered.
- 12) The proposed T/S 6..5.3, "Technical Review and Control," has been added to the administrative controls section to ensure that activities affecting nuclear safety will continue to be adequately controlled and that technical reviews will be performed once these activities are removed from the PNSRC responsibilities. Transfer of review and approval to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 5 responsibilities from the PNSRC to appropriate persons/
groups will occur after the Plant Manager approves, in writing, that those persons/groups designated are qualified.
T/S 6.5.3.1.a specifies how procedures required by Specification 6.8, other procedures, and changes to procedures that affect plant nuclear safety are reviewed and approved. The review would be done by a qualified individual/
group other than the individual/group that prepared the procedures or the changes. The Plant Manager will approve administrative procedures, Security Plan implementing proce-dures and Emergency Plan implementing procedures.
Procedures other than those mentioned above will be approved by the appropriate department head as designated in writing by the Plant Manager. Requirements for temporary changes to procedures that do not change the intent of the approved procedures have been included in this specification, Temporary changes will be approved for implementation by two members of the plant staff, at least one of whom holds a Senior Operator license. These requirements for temporary changes to procedures are contained in our current T/Ss under Specification 6.8.3. By including temporary changes to procedures in Specification 6.5.3.1.a, T/S 6.8.3 would be redundant and has therefore been deleted in the proposed T/S pages'/Ss 6.5.3.1.b and 6.5.3.1.c address proposed changes or modifications to plant nuclear safety-related structures, systems, components, and proposed tests and experiments that affect plant nuclear safety and are not addressed in the Final Safety Analysis Report or T/Ss. Each of the above items will be reviewed by a qualified individual/group other than the individual/group who wrote the document, and will be approved prior to implementation by the Plant Manager.
T/S 6.5.3 1 d specifies the individuals who approved the
~ ~
reviews performed in accordance with Specification 6.5.3.1.a, 6.5.3.1.b, and 6.5.3.1.c will be members of the plant management staff and will meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of ANSI N18.1-1971 Section 4.4 for comparable positions, It is also specified in T/S 6 '.3.led that the review will determine whether or not additional cross-disciplinary review is necessary. T/S 6.5.3.1.e specifies that the review will include a determination of whether or not an unreviewed safety question is involved.
T/Ss 6.5.3.1.f and 6.5.3.1.g specify the review process Plant Security Plan and Emergency Plan and their for'he implementing procedures.
to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 6 T/S 6.5.3.2 will require records of the above activities to be distributed to the Plant Manager and the PNSRC and/or NSDRC for required reviews.
These proposed changes are an enhancement to the existing T/Ss. The addition of Specification 6.5.3 ensures that adequate controls are in place and that technical reviews are performed of activities that affect nuclear safety.
These proposed changes are similar to the T/Ss recently approved for Callaway - Unit 1 and South Texas - Unit l.
- 13) The proposed changes to T/S 6.6.1 clarify the actions to be taken for reportable events. The proposed specification requires that the Commission be notified and a report submitted as required by 10 CFR 50 '3 in the case of a reportable event. This is not an additional requirement; it is a clarification that 10 CFR 50.73 must apply to reportable events. This proposed change is consistent with the draft of Revision 5 of Westinghouse Standard Technical Specifications and the T/Ss recently approved for South Texas - Unit 1, Callaway - Unit 1, Shearon Harris - Unit 1, Byron - Units 1 and 2, Braidwood - Units 1 and 2, and Seabrook - Unit l.
- 14) The proposed changes to T/S 6.7.1 clarify the actions to be taken in the event a safety limit is violated. The requirement to have the facility in at least hot standby within one hour has been removed from this specification since Section 2 of the T/Ss. contains the requirement. The requirement to report the safety limit violation to the Commission within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> would be changed to notifying by the NRC Operations Center as soon as possible and 'elephone in all cases within one hour. Paragraphs 6.7.1.c and 6.7.1.d have been relettered to 6.7.1.b and 6,7 alee with no changes to the text. An additional requirement is that restart of the unit would not take place until authorized by the Commission.
The additional requirements and clarifications of these proposed changes are considered an improvement to the existing T/Ss. These changes would make our T/Ss consistent with Revision 4 and the draft of Revision 5 of the Westinghouse Standard Technical Specifications.
- 15) The proposed changes to T/S 6.8.1 are to delete refueling operations, surveillance and test activities of safety-related equipment, and Fire Protection Program implementation from this list. Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, November 1972 adequately addresses these items and therefore there is no need to list them as separate items. Due to these items being deleted, the remaining items were relettered.
B to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 7
- 16) The proposed change to Specification 6 '.2 specifies that temporary changes shall be reviewed prior to implementation.
- 17) An additional requirement to include documentation of all challenges to the PORVs is proposed to be added to the monthly reactor operating report (T/S 6,9.1.10) ~ Although T/Ss require a report of PORV challenges to be submitted on an annual basis, this monthly requirement has been added to make our T/Ss consistent with Revision 4 of the Westinghouse Standard Technical Specifications. The mailing address to which these reports are submitted has been corrected.
This change is viewed as an enhancement to the current T/Ss.
- 18) In T/S 6.9.2, additional reference specifications have been added to the activities identified. This proposed change will make this list more complete than the current T/Ss and therefore is considered to be an improvement. Co'rresponding references in Section 3 '/4.0 have been revised to adequately reflect the requirements in Specification 6.9.2 and are included in Attachment 2. Additional editorial changes to the Section 3 '/4.0 pages have been made.
Specifically, to the extent possible, symbols have been written in words for clarification.
- 19) T/S 6.9.1.13 was deleted by Amendment No. 87. to the Unit 1 T/Ss and Amendment No. 73 to the Unit 2 T/Ss. However, the corresponding references in Section 3.0/4.0 have not been removed. The proposed revised T/S pages delete these references.
The remaining changes are made to correct several editorial errors. A description of these editorial caps' changes is given below.
These changes do not change the intent or meaning of the T/Ss themselves, but are considered to be an improvement in the quality of the T/Ss.
a) In T/S 6.2.2.e (T/S 6.2.2.d in the re~ised pages), the "ALL" should be written as "All," since it is not part of the phrase CORE ALTERATIONS that is defined in Section 1 of the T/Ss. (Words defined in Section 1 should be typed in all )
b) In T/S 6.2.2.f (T/S 6.2.2.e in the revised pages),
"Fire Brigade" was changed'to lower case (fire brigade),
c) Following T/S 6 '.1, the heading FUNCTION was added for clarification.
to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 8 d) In T/S 6 '.2.3, "Alternate Members" and "Temporary Altefnate Members" have been changed to lower case.
e) In T/S 6.5.2.6, "Designated and Temporary Alternates" has been changed to all lower cases.
In T/S 6.7.1, "Safety Limit" was changed to lower case ~
g) T/Ss 6.14, 6.15, and 6.16 have been renumbered to T/Ss 6.13, 6.14, and 6.15. In the current T/Ss, Section 6 '3 had previously been deleted.
h) The index pages for Section 6 have been revised to reflect the proposed changes made in this submittal.
Per 10 CFR 50.92, a proposed amendment will not involve a significant hazards consideration if the proposed amendment does not:
(1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated, (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously analyzed or evaluated, or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
Criterion 1 The changes requested in this letter affect only the Administrative Controls section of the T/Ss. Ve believe the revised Administrative Controls will enhance the safe operation of the Cook Nuclear Plant. Therefore we believe these changes will not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of a previously evaluated accident.
Criterion 2 These changes are purely administrative in nature. Plant systems, components and operation will not be altered by these changes. Therefore, we believe this change will not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident than has previously been analyzed or evaluated.
Criterion 3 Since these changes are administrative in nature, they will not impact the ability of the plant systems and components to perform their safety function. Therefore we believe these changes will not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
to AEP:NRC:0659M Page 9 The Commission has provided guidance concerning the determination of significant hazards by providing certain examples (48 FR 14780) of amendments considered not likely to involve a significant hazards consideration. The first example is that of a purely administrative change to the T/Ss: for example, a change to achieve consistency throughout the T/Ss, correction of an error, or a change in nomenclature. We believe that the changes requested in this letter are of the type specified in this example. Since these changes are administrative in nature, they do not reduce a margin of safety, do not increase the probability or consequences of a previously analyzed accident, and do not introduce the possibility of a new accident.
Therefore, we believe these changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration as defined by 10 CFR 50.92.
