APPLICABILITY BASES 3.0.4 (Continued)
The incent of this provision is to ensure that facility operation is
- nor, initiated with either required equipmenc or systems inoperable or ocher speciEied limits being exceeded.
Exceptions to this provision have been provided Eor a limited number of specifications when scartup with inoperabLe equipment would not affecc plant safety.
These exceptions are stated in the ACTION statements of che appropriate speciEicacions
~
4.0.1 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to ensure the Limiting Conditions Eor Operation are met and will be performed during the OPERATIONAL MODES or ocher conditions for which che Limiting Conditions for Operation are applicable" Provisions Eor additional surveillance activities co be performed without regard to the applicabLe OPERATIONAL MODES or ocher conditions are provided in the i.ndividuaL SurveiLlance Requirements.
Surveillance Requirements for Special Tesc Exceptions need only be performed when the Special Tesc Excepcion is being ucilixed as an excepcion co an individual specification, 4.0.2 The provisions of this specification establish the Limic for which the specified time interval for Surveillance Requirements may be extended.
It permics an allowabLe extension of the normal surveillance interval to facilitate surveillance scheduling and consideration of plant operating conditions that may not be suitable for conducting the surveillance; e.g.,
transient conditions or ocher ongoing surveillance or maintenance activities.
It also provides Elexibility to accommodate th Length oE a fuel cycle Eor surveillances thac are performed ac each reEueling oucage and are specified with an 18 month surveiLlance incervaL. It is not incended that this provision be used repeatedly as a convenience to extend surveillance intervals beyond that specified Eor surveiLlances that are not performed during refueling outages.
The Limication of Specificacion 4.0.2 is based on engineering judgement and the recognition that the most probable result oE any particuLar surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the Surveillance Requirements, This provision is sufficient to ensure that the reLiability ensured through, surveillance activities is noc significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the specified surveillance interval.

B 3/4 0-2a Amendment No ~
Ifit is discovered that a surveillance was not performed within its specified surveillance interval, then compliance with the requirement to declare the LCO not met may be delayed, from the time of discovery, up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or up to the limitof the specified surveillance interval, whichever is less.
This delay period is permitted to allow performance of the.
surveillance.
Ifthe surveillance is not performed within the delay period, the LCO must immediately be declared not met, and the applicable ACTION requirements must be met.
When the surveillance is performed within the delay period and the surveillance criteria are not met, the LCO must immediately be declared not met, and the applicable ACTION requirements must be met.
INSERT B:
Specification 4.0.3 establishes the flexibilityto defer declaring affected equipment inoperable or an affected variable outside the specified limits when a surveillance has not been completed within the specified surveillance interval. A delay period of up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or up to the limit of the specified surveillance interval, whichever is less, applies from the point in time that it is discovered that the surveillance has not been performed in accordance with Specification 4.0.2, and not at the time that the specified surveillance interval was not met.
This delay period provides adequate time to complete surveillances that have been missed.
This delay period permits the completion of a surveillance before complying with ACTION requirements or other remedial measures that might preclude completion of the surveillance.
The basis for this delay period includes consideration of unit conditions, adequate planning, availability of personnel, the time required to perform the surveillance, the safety significance of the delay in completing the required surveillance, and the recognition that the most probable result of any particular surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the requirements.
When a surveillance with a surveillance interval based not on time intervals, but upon specified unit conditions or operational situations, is discovered not to have been performed when specified, Specification 4.0.3 allows the full delay period of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to perform the surveillance.
Specification 4.0.3 also provides a time limitfor completion of surveillances that become applicable as a consequence of MODE changes imposed by ACTION requirements.
Failure to comply with specified surveillance intervals for surveillance requirements is expected to be an infrequent occurrence.
Use of the delay period established by Specification 4.0.3 is a flexibilitywhich is not intended to be used as an operational convenience to extend surveillance intervals.
~
~'NSERT B (CON'T) 1 Ifa surveillance is not completed within the allowed delay period, then the equipment is considered inoperable or the variable is considered outside the specified limits and the time limits of the ACTION requirements for the applicable LCO begin immediately upon expiration of the delay period. Ifa surveillance is failed within the delay period, then the equipment is inoperable or the variable is outside the specified limits, and the time limits of the ACTION requirements for the applicable LCO begin immediately upon the failure of the surveillance.
Completion of the surveillance within the delay period allowed by this Specification, or within the completion time of the ACTIONS, restores compliance with,Specification 4.0.1.
. APPLICABILITY SURVEILLANCE REQUIREHENTS 4.0.1 Surveillance Requirements shall be met during the OPERATIONAL HODES or other conditions specified for individual Limiting Conditions for Operation unless otherwise stated in an individual Surveillance Requirement.
4.0.2 Each Surveillance Requirement shall be performed within the specified surveillance interval with a maximum allowable extension not to exceed 25'f the specified surveillance interval.
4.0.3 If it is discovered that a surveillance was not performed within its specified surveillance interval, then compliance with the requirement to declare the LCO not met may be delayed, from the time of discovery, up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or up to the limit of the specified surveillance interval, whichever is less.
This delay period is permitted to allow performance of the surveillance.
If the surveillance is not performed within the delay period, the LCO must ipmediately be declared not met, and the applicable ACTION requirements must be met.
When the surveillance is performed within the delay period and the surveillance criteria are not met, the LCO must immediately be declared not
- met, and the applicable ACTION requirements must be met.
Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment.
4.0.4 Entry into an OPERATIONAL HODE or other specified condition shall not be made unless the Surveillance Requirement(s) associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation has been performed within the stated surveillance interval or as otherwise specified.
4.0.5 Surveillance Requirements for inservice inspection and testing of ASHE Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components shall be applicable as follows:
Inservice inspection of ASHE Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components and inservice testing of ASHE Code Class 1, 2, and 3 pumps and valves shall be performed in accordance with Section XI of the ASHE Boiler. and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda as required by 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.55a(g),
except where specific written relief has been granted by the Commission pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.55a(g)(6)(i);

. APPLICABILITY BASES 3.0.4 (Continued)
The intent of this provision is to ensure that facility oper ation is not initiated with either required equipment or systems inoperable or other specified limits being exceeded.
Exceptions to this provision have been provided for a limited number of specifications when startup with inoperable equipment would not affect plant safety.
These exceptions are stated in the ACTION statements of the appropriate specifications.
4.0.1 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to ensure the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met and will be performed during the OPERATIONAL NODES or other conditions for which the Limiting Condi-tions for Operation are applicable.
Provisions for additional surveillance activities to be performed without regard to the applicable OPERATIONAL NODES or other conditions are provided in the individual Surveillance Requirements.
Surveillance Requirements for Special Test Exceptions need only be performed when the Special Test Exception is being utilized as an exception to an individual specification.
4.0.2 The provisions of this specification establish the limit for which the specified time interval for Surveillance Requirements may be extended.
It permits an allowable extension of the normal surveillance interval to facilitate surveillance scheduling and consideration of plant operating conditions that may not be suitable for conducting surveillance; e.g.,
transient conditions or other ongoing surveillance or maintenance activities.
It also provides flexibilityto accommodate the length of a fuel cycle for surveillances that are performed at each refueling outage and are specified with an 18 month surveillance interval. It is not intended that this provision be used repeatedly as a convenience to extend surveillance intervals beyond that specified for surveillances that are not performed during refueling outages.
The limitation of Specification 4.0.2 is based on engineering judgement and the recognition that the most probable result of any particular surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the Surveillance Requirements.
This provision is sufficient to ensure that the reliability ensured through surveillance activities is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the specified surveillance interval.
4.0.3 Specification 4.0.3 establishes the flexibilityto defer declaring affected equipment inoperable or an affected variable outside the specified limits when a surveillance has not been completed within the specified surveillance interval.
A delay period of up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or up to the limit of the specified surveillance interval, whichever is less, applies from the point in time that it is discovered that the surveillance has not been performed in accordance with Specification 4.0.2, and not at the time that the specified surveillance interval was not met.
This delay period provides adequate time to complete surveillances that have been missed.
This delay period permits the completion of a surveillance before complying with ACTION requirements or other remedial measures that might prec'tude completion of the surveillance.

.. The basis for thi ay period includes considerat of unit conditions, adequate
- planning, vailability of personnel, the ts e required to perform the surveillance, the safety significance of the delay in completing the required surveillance, and the recognition that the most probable result of any particular surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with'he requirements.
When a surveillance with a surveillance interval based not on time intervals, but upon specified unit conditions or operational situations, is discovered not to have been performed when specified, Specification 4.0.3 allows the full delay period of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to perform the surveillance.
Specification 4.0.3 also provides a time limit for completion of surveillances that become applicable as a consequence of NODE changes imposed by ACTION requirements'ailure to comply with specified surveillance intet vals for surveillance requirements is expected to be an infrequent. occurrence.
Use of the delay period established by Specification 4.0.3 is a flexibilitywhich is not intended to be used as an operational convenience to extend surveillance intervals.
If a surveillance is not completed within the allowed delay period, then the equipment is considered inoperable or the variable is considered outside the specified limits and the time limits of the ACTION requirements for the applicable LCO begin immediately upon expiration of the delay period. If a surveillance is failed within the delay period, then the equipment is inoperable or the variable is outside the specified limits, and the time limits of the ACTION requirements for the applicable LCO begin immediately upon the failure of the surveillance.
Completion of the surveillance within the delay period allowed by this Specification, or within the completion time of the ACTIONS, restores compliance with Specification 4.0.1.
4.0.4 This specification ensures that the surveillance activities associated with a Limiting Condition for Operation have been performed within the specified time interval prior to entry into an OPERATIONAL NODE or other applicable condition.
The intent of this provision is to ensure that surveillance activities have been satisfactorily demonstrated on a current basis as required to meet the OPERABILITY requirements of the Limiting Condition for Operation.
