PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT Proc No 4.05 LICENSE WORK EXPERIENCE LOG Attachment 7 Revision. 1 Page 2 of 2 Reactivity Manipulations A minimum of ten reactivity changes per two-year period shall be performe~ or observed.

The following lists evolutions which are creditable for the required reactivity manipulations.

1. Manual control of the reactor during dilution or boration maintaining reactor power. Reactivity change required will be a minimum of 0.01%p.

2. Manual control of the reactor maintaining stable reactor power during a xenon transient for one hour or more. Manipulation must be performed in the first fifteen hours of a transient following a power change of 25% or greater.

3. Change in core reactivity by the operator of 0.1% in less than one hour for any reason utilizing either control rods or boric acid control.

4. Change of reactor power greater than 10% of full power in one hour or less.

5. Attendance at plant controls during and immediately following a plant trip from power level greater than 10%.

6. Operation of the plant controls during any major step in start-up or shutdown, for example:

a. Start-up from cold shutdown to hot standby.

b. Critical approach from hot standby.

c. Turbine generator start-up from hot standby.

d. Plant loading from synchronization.

e. Plant shutdown from power to hot standby.

f. Plant cooldown from hot standby.

7. Control of steam generator levels from synchronization to 15% power, including tra~sfer to automatic.

8. Manual reactor control.from synchronization to 15% power, including transfer to automatic.

SS or SE signature documents satisfactory completion of specified reactivity manipulation. Space marked R/M# shall be used to indicate which manipulation, by number, was performed or observed.
