~

target flux difference and/or a +3K band about the target flux difference. the Load-Follow function Fz(Z) and the augmented surveillance turnon power fraction, Pz. shall be provided to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Cmmission, whenever P~ is <1.0.

In the event, the option of Baseload Operation (as defined in Section 4.2.2.3) will not be exercised.

the submission of the W(Z) function is not required.

Should these values (i.e.. W(Z), Fz(Z) and Pz) change requiring a new submittal or an amended submittal to the Peaking Factor Limit Report, the Peaking Factor Limit Report shall be provided to the NRC Document Control desk with copies to the Regional Administrator and the Resident Inspector within 30 days of their implementation.

unless otherwise approved by the Cmmission.

The analytical methods used to generate the Peaking Factor limits shall be those previously reviewed and approved by the NRC. If changes to these methods are deemed necessary they will be evaluated in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 and submitted to the NRC for review and approval prior to their use if the change is determined to involve an unreviewed safety question or if such a change would require amendment of previously submitted documentation.

6.9.1.7 Core operating limits shall be established and documented in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT (COLR) before each reload cycle or any remaining part of a reload cycle for the following:
