REACTZVIXY CONTROL SYSTEMS SURVEILLANCE UIREMENTS 4,1.1.4 Tho MXC shall be dotermined to bo within its limits during each fuel cyclo as follovs: .

a) The ETC shall bo measured and compared to the'OL limit specified in tho COLE prior to initial operation above 50 of RATED TH LML PO'ER, after each fuel loading.

b) The MTC sha11 be measured at any THERMAL PO~ within 7 EFPD after reaching an equilibrium boron concentration of 300 ppm.

The measured value shall be compared to the 300 ppm surveillance limit specified in the COLR. In .the event this comparison indicates that the MTC vt.ll be more negative than the EOL limit, the MTC shall be remeasured at least once per 14 EPPD during the remainder of tho fuel cycle and the MTC value compared to the EOL limit.
